THREE COLORS WHITE
I have paper... a summons.
That way, sir.
Can you tell us your concrete reasons for wanting a divorce?
Concrete?
Yes, concrete.
Our marriage wasn't consummated.
Is your wife's testimony faithful to the facts?
In a manner of speaking.
But when we met in Poland,
and even here, at the beginning, I think I gave my wife pleasure.
It's only afterwards...
We haven't made love since we're married.
We stopped... I stopped being able to. It's just temporary.
Where's the equality?
Is my not speaking French a reason for the court to refuse
to hear my case?
What is it
that you want?
I need time, Your Honor.
I want to save our marriage.
I don't believe the love is gone.
One night, I was ready to...
Was the marriage consummated that night?
No.
I beg your pardon?
Do you love your husband?
I used to.
And now?
No.
I don't love him anymore.
My God!
That's all.
Dominique!

CARD CONFISCATED
Karol Karol?
Your account is frozen.
Frozen?
Yes. Your card cannot be used.
It's invalidated. Canceled.
My card.
I can't give it to you.
My money.
Police?
No, no...
Please
Well..?
Excuse me.
Come to Poland with me.
I'll never go with you.
I'll win...
every trial.
The divorce, property settlement...
You never understood a thing.
I understand.
No.
If I say I love you, you don't understand.
And if I say I hate you, you still don't understand.
You don't understand that I want you,
that I need you.
Do you understand?
No.
And now I scare you?
Do I scare you?
I don't know
You don't know
Watch this, now
Take a good look
You were out for revenge.
You set the place on fire
That's what happened.
Soon every cop in Paris will be after you.
The keys!
Your fly is open.
I'm sorry.
How could you tell I'm Polish?
I know that song.
What about this one?
I don't like it.
Do you live off that comb?
I try. Times are tough.
What's that?
Diplomas.
Hairdresser?
Not a bad job.
I've won competitions.
Sofia, Budapest, Warsaw.
Here too.
Where do you sleep?
In your suitcase?
Excuse me.
Mikolaj
Karol
There's an alcove...
Can I sit with you for a while?
You do card tricks?
Pick thirteen cards.
Spades: 3, 4, Queen, King.
Diamonds: 2, 5, Ace.
Clubs: 3, 5, King.
Hearts are weak: 2 and 4.
What counts in bridge is memory.
And mine is excellent.
I've played bridge here for a few years.
Now I'm going home. What about you?
I want to get out of here.
I'll take you back.
Tomorrow morning.
I think I doubt it.
I lost my passport. I have no money. The police are after me.
I'm down on my luck.
I'll make enough to buy a fake passport near the Polish church.
They're rip-off artists.
Rip-off artists.
And not very serious.
I offered one of them a job. He took the money and ran.
Maybe you'd like it.
A good job?
Very good, but unpleasant.
I'm a hairdresser.
You have to kill someone.
He won't do it himself.
He doesn't want to go on living.
A Pole.
He'll pay well. Enough to live on for 6 months.
No, no... not that.
Why can't he do it himself?
He wants to, but he can't.
He has a wife and children who love him.
Imagine how they would feel.
This way, someone kills him and it's over.
He has a wife, children, money... and wants to die?
What can I say?
My wife threw me out with one suitcase.
And here I am.
I still love her.
Even more than before.
After all she did, I still love her.
Is she pretty?
Beautiful
I first saw her at the Budapest competition.
I won that one.
A friend was doing her hair.
She looked at me.
I'll show you.
Where?
Come on.
Brigitte Bardot?
Beautiful.
A bit over the hill, no?
There.
She's going to sleep.
You think so?
It's me.
Perfect timing. Listen.
Dominique, I love you.
It stole two francs.
Your telephone stole two francs.
So what?
Give me back my stolen money.
Give it back!
You're taking me to Poland.
I know how.
How?
Move your arm.
For air.
Can you last four hours?
I'll last.
I have one thing to do.
What?
Steal something.
Nothing else from Paris?
No, why?
Can I help you?
My suitcase is missing.
Ticket, please.
Excuse me?
Your ticket, please.
The Paris flight?
What was in it?
Personal belongings.
Clothes, shirts...
165 pounds?
To tell the truth, my friend was in it.
We'll divide it in 5 equal parts: 2 for me.
What?
Handling charges.
Fuck! It's alive!
What the fuck?
Get him out!
Made in Russia! Fuck!
Stop it! He may have a wallet.
Two francs! Shit!
Give that back!
Careful! He has scissors!
The asshole's broke.
Let's split!
Jesus...
home at last.
Jesus!
You're back.
What happened?
You bought a neon sign.
This is Europe now.
Too bad you missed Christmas.
Too bad.
Just a minute, please.
Jurek...
I heard Karol's back.
Well...
he is.
So?
They're asking for you.
The ladies.
Give me a few days.
I brought you some broth.
Sleep.
Sleep, sleep...
Karol, remember you have an appointment today.
Thank you.
What's up?
What is it?
It's payday.
You have clients waiting.
I can't today. You do them.
They don't want me anymore.
The door!
Sorry.
What is it?
I have an appointment. Jadwiga told me...
You do her hair?
Yes.
Is that all?
Okay.
What do you want?
I'd Like to get into the money business.
In my line, it takes years to get ahead.
I'll say!
I heard about how you got out of Paris.
You're inconspicuous.
That's good. I need a guard.
Relax. It just shoots tear-gas.
Go wander around outside.
Present perfect.
I have eaten. You have eaten. He has eaten.
We have eaten. You have eaten. They have eaten.
Repeat:
Would that I had eaten!
Would that you had eaten...
The verb ''to sleep''.
Repeat:
Would that I had slept!
Would that you had slept...
The verb ''to leave''.
Repeat:
Would that I had left!
Would that you had left...
The verb ''to please''. Repeat:
Would that I had pleased!
How about a gas mask?
What?
- Someone's watching us. - Let him.
A big guy. Just standing there.
Where?
Hide me.
What?
Hide me!
Are you happy here?
In the bathroom?
No, in general
Yes. Why?
You can stay as long as you Like,
but we have to settle things first.
I can pay you.
No.
I'd Like you to do some hair.
Ten heads.
A week.
Five.
Okay. Seven.
Someone was looking for you.
Not too tall. Fortyish
Sad looking.
Mikolaj?
He brought me back from Paris.
He was glad to know you're alive.
No phone number?
No, he just said to say hi.
Then he left.
Hi.
In Gdansk, we exchange at 30.
In Torun, twice that. Put it in a bank
and get a loan.
You have to turn here.
It's up the hill.
Only 7%.
But if we triple the investment...
That's pretty smart.
Is that clod sleeping?
It's here.
Hartwig and Ikea
want to build warehouses.
And these bumpkins
don't know.
No one does.
I'm not breathing a word
30% profit.
We'll see.
Okay.
Don't sleep!
You'll get robbed.
Can you exchange this?
For dollars?
That's some nest egg.
I work.
A bottle of vodka.
The most expensive.
Wrap it up please.
Hello
I'm here on business.
Official?
No, I wanted to talk business.
Can I come in?
It must be a good piece of land.
Move in with your son!
I wanted to.
Then do it!
Buy a car, a TV.
What for? I never watch it.
Always the same crap.
Or else...
I could bury the money...
put it in a little jar.
Sure!
That would be nice.
1000 dollars down.
4000 more when we close the deal
