Run... Save yourself!
Run!
Get out of my sight! Go to hell! You filthy scum!
I had three shops. Three!
I had my job, my life, my dignity.
And now I'm struggling to survive.
Everyone I trusted...
...screwed me over.
They're all useless.
Where's my government now? Where are all those people I voted for?
Do you know how many times...
...those scumbags destroyed my shops over the past years?
Five!
No insurance company will cover me.
Do you know how much I owe due to the damages they've caused?
A year ago the bank took everything I had.
I have nothing... Nothing.
Everywhere I go, everywhere I look...
...the streets are full of those filthy people.
Enough is enough.
I refuse to wait until things go back to what they used to be.
I refuse to accept that my city has come to this.
And I refuse to do nothing about it.
I want them vanished by any means.
I want them out of our country.
I will support any decision you make.
I believe racism is increasing as a result of people being under pressure.
Hence, they don't think. Or they're trained not to.
So thinking becomes a luxury? - Yes.
When I'm in danger, for me, thinking is a luxury.
And this applies to everyone in here, but they don't want to admit.
Look at what happened to Dafne!
Sorry.
The man who saved me that night was an immigrant.
Not a Greek.
Your ticket, please.
It doesn't seem to be fake.
The guy who forged it has helped many others to escape.
How can we be sure that we won't get caught?
There's a guy on the train and in Customs. He's in on it.
When will we have them?
It'll take some time. Once they're ready, I'll let you know.
Do we have another option? - No.
Then don't think about it. This is how it should be done.
No.
This is God Eros!
But I'm so glad that I've met you...
What are you doing there? - Nothing.
I was looking for some old sleeping bags and I found them.
What do you want them for?
For Lydia. We want to go camping.
Daphne? - I'm running late.
Is there something going on? - Like what?
You're never here, you're always on edge.
So are you.
Have you met someone? - Am I not allowed to?
I'd like to know. - I'll tell you when I feel like it.
"Swimming".
"Food".
"Happy". "I want you".
"Hello".
"What is your name?""
"You are beautiful".
"Crisis".
"Time".
"I am in love".
"I am afraid".
"I miss you".
When did you learn all this? - All of this for you.
Farris...
Yes.
I miss you too, all the time.
I am also in love.
I am also afraid.
I want to ask you to come with me so badly...
But I can't do this to you.
Everything is falling apart.
Did you know that they've been living at the old airport?
They've been gun and drug dealing.
We have complaints every day.
People are suffering!
Why are you looking at me like that?
You are completely ignorant! Like most of you people!
You don't realize that these parasites don't let us live our lives anymore!
You really believe that the problem is the immigration issue...
...or that the whole world is changing at our expense...
...and we focus on what they feed us?
Yes, one who becomes a fascist is an idiot.
It leads nowhere and prevents from noticing what's really happening.
On the one hand, they empty Syria's chemicals in the Mediterranean.
At the risk of destroying the whore ecosystem and tourism.
And on the other hand, they want to enforce laws prohibiting people...
...from cultivating their land and having access to water.
This has never happened before in human history.
They'll control food, water...
...and soon enough common sense will be obliterated.
Daphne?
Are you with us?
Do you want to add something? - No.
Why is that?
Because, the way things have turned out...
...I don't know if it's worse for an immigrant or for a Greek...
...to be trapped in Greece.
"I love you".
"I miss you".
"I am in love".
"I want to be with you". "Wherever you go".
"Wherever we can be together".
I love you.
I love you too.
Dad? - Yes.
Is our home going through an economic crisis?
Our country is going through an economic crisis.
And when a country goes through an economic crisis...
...parents stop sleeping together?
Of course not. Why would you think that?
Then why do you sleep every night on the couch?
Is this what happens in every home?
No. - Then why is this happening in ours?
Have you broken up with mom?
No. Play!
Then since you don't sleep with her anymore...
...can I go and sleep in your bed instead?
No, you have your own room. Come on now, play.
How about only when it's raining and there's thunder?
LOSEFT 50mg. Treatment for depression...
...panic disorder, anxiety disorders post-traumatic stress disorder.
Loan installment for the house was settled. Sign here.
Remittance for your parents' rent, here.
Life insurance installment.
You sign here for your wife, and here for your child.
Gas, electricity and property tax has been deposited. Sign here.
You have yet to pay insurance for your wife and father and your credit card.
How many times must I tell you? - I don't want to study!
Damn it! I won't say it again!
I don't care! - Stop playing this goddamn game!
Dad! - You never listen!
Dad! - Just like your father!
Giorgos, can't you hear me? Come out, for God's sake!
I need you, goddamn it! I can't do everything on my own!
I can't handle this child anymore! Come out!
Giorgos, I can't do it all by myself!
Spyros? She asked me to put out my cigarette.
Put it out, man. We don't want any trouble.
Bitch.
That's why.
We're more hospitable. We don't kick people out.
For fuck's sake. Unbelievable.
She's throwing me out. Fucking bitch...
Problems at home? - No.
Everything's fine at home. What's up?
Do you have a minute? - Yes, of course.
I wanted to tell you something. I want to ask you for a favor.
And I'm not asking you this as a colleague, but as a friend.
What kind of favor?
Can you switch me to your department?
Why?
Because I'm afraid that I might get fired.
They fired eight of us last week and...
OK, in my department the damages are irreversible.
I don't have anyone to protect me. There's a lot of backstabbing.
First of all, calm down. - I can't.
I can't afford to get fired.
I don't know what to do.
No one will touch your department.
You've been working here for 15 years. They trust you.
If you ask for my transfer, they might do it.
But if I ask for your transfer...
...that means that I'll have to let go one of my own people.
I can't do that, Odyssea.
Could you at least say something?
To that chick?
You're a manager. She'll listen to you.
She doesn't have a clue what's going on here.
She just carries out orders. - Odyssea...
...we're all on the same boat. - Yes.
Even if I ask for something like that they'll turn it down.
Despina is pregnant.
That's good.
That's something that you wanted, right?
Tomorrow I'm taking her for an abortion.
When you have so many unnecessary accountants...
...you'll have to get rid of half of them.
Look, I don't give a damn that they confiscated my home.
I shouldn't have believed I could afford to own a house anyway...
It's all my other debts... If my wife leaves me too...
How are you doing? Is the family OK?
We've lost touch. We should get together some day.
If you could please help me...
Too bad.
Because I wanted to tell you that I'm falling in love with you.
Say you're sorry, say you're sorry.
No, you'll have your checks next month. I promise.
You've nothing to be afraid of.
All this is for the company's best interest.
Odyssea?
Odyssea!
It's a real mess, isn't it?
Departments are being merged.
Ten more will be fired. Sure, I know we're not yet affected by that.
But until when?
Excuse me, doesn't this stress you out at all?
Ilias, I'm busy and I'm not in the mood.
Yes, so I've heard.
I don't care what you've heard. I told you, I've got work to do.
What have you heard?
Those love affairs...
You know, they're the most tricky...
If, in fact, one can distinguish passion from love.
No one wants them... Everyone gossips.
Then comes all the guilt, that we fell for the wrong person...
...and you try to find a way to change everything...
So it's best to pretend and look the other way.
You suffer, you miss her, you meet in secret.
You listen to music, you want to get away with your lover.
And you keep thinking "It can't be. We feel the same way."
And, of course, we keep ignoring things...
...believing that whatever happens, we'll make it.
And then comes a day when we hear...
...that our friend who got fired killed himself.
And that the idiot was too weak to handle it.
Expendable.
He's neither the first nor the last one.
So what? Because he asked for our help?
"Love, invincible in battle".
Odysseas' wife just called.
They found him this morning. He hung himself.
The funeral is tomorrow.
But she doesn't want to see your face.
It's unfair, I know.
But that's the reality.
It's over.
"Danke!"
Anyway.
Vinaigrette, prosciutto...
...parmesan...
You eat well and we don't even have money to buy feta cheese.
You know? - Thank you.
You're welcome.
We don't even have money for cherry tomatoes.
Thanks to you.
Okay, it's not your fault. It's just me.
No, it's okay. I have coffee at home.
I have to go.
Out of habit. I don't buy anything.
I have to go.
Historian!
So you know better. Won't you give us back what you owe us?
You started two wars.
You destroyed nations. Have you forgotten all that?
It used to be. Now, very different.
How do I say that?
That's why you say that.
I almost forgot. This is a patch for your back.
That's what happens when you ride bikes at your age.
I always loved to walk around.
Watch people, observe them.
Try to figure out if they're happy, or sad.
If they feel lonely, just like I do.
I didn't have the chance to do what I wanted.
I wanted to study, but I got married, had children.
Time slipped away.
Now I'm talking to you... You don't understand a thing, do you?
But who knows? Perhaps you can feel me.
Soap.
Soil.
"Occupation Compensations".
You have such beautiful eyes...
Knowledge.
Faith.
Oh, lentils... I almost forgot.
Dear God! From politics to Greek tragedies.
God Eros.
Me too. If you only knew how I long to see you every week.
Sixty.
I'm crazy.
We'll go to jail! Let's go back, it was a mistake!
Jesus, what are we doing at our age?
You're just as good at bribing and then you judge us!
"Age".
"Excitement".
Well done.
"Routine".
"Imagination".
"Guilt".
"Strength".
"Habit".
"Change".
"Denial".
No, this doesn't count. No, I'll stop playing.
A lot.
And what if it's too late?
It's never too late.
What's this? In English? I can't read English.
"Second chance"?
Together.
You believe that we'll be together for so long?
I miss you. A lot.
Spring.
These two must be related somehow.
On Sunday it's my grandson's birthday.
We'll all get together at home. I'll cook roasted lamb.
We'll sit at the table, as always.
And I'll be so happy to have my family.
My children, my grandson, my health.
That's just the way it is.
Then they'll leave, I'll clear the table...
...I'll wash the dishes while my husband watches TV.
And me, above the sink... Wondering if I'm happy or not.
When I'm washing dishes it's the only time I question it all.
Is this what I wanted in my life?
I've made terrible mistakes, Sebastian. I'm to blame.
I taught them this way. It's all on me.
How can I change it all now?
I just need some time.
Just some time.
Your father must not find out! - I don't care!
I don't give a damn if they all find out! I'm not ashamed!
Please, I beg of you! - What can he do to me?
You're very young. You can't destroy your whole life over an infatuation!
You're all a bunch of hypocrites.
All I want is to be with him.
Mom, I'm in love.
Have you ever been in love?
Happy birthday!
Dad, Anna and I have been separated for six months now.
You think I don't know already?
You think I'm an idiot? Just because I keep quiet?
I don't want to be with Anna.
The normal thing is to be with your wife and child.
You're 40 years old.
How long, you suppose, this fling will last?
Do what you want to do with her...
...and once you're done, fuckin' ditch her.
Have fun, if you need to...
...but keep your family as well. Are you listening to me?
And don't you dare tell your mother any of this.
She's already stressed enough with our finances.
So, you'll come on Sunday...
...and we'll have a great family time, as always.
That's how I keep my family together.
Did you know that they've been living at the old airport?
They've been gun and drug dealing.
We have complaints every day. People are suffering!
Why are you looking at me like that?
You are completely ignorant! Like most of you people!
You don't realize that these parasites...
...don't let us live our lives anymore!
If we don't do anything about it, then who will?
Just why do you think I'm doing all that for?
Because you failed in everything else.
What did you just say?
Maria, what did you say?
Sometimes, us parents...
...make mistakes that may confuse you.
Why?
Because we're afraid.
Afraid of what?
Of the truth. - And what's the truth?
The truth is...
...that your mom and I love you very much.
But we'll be much happier from now on...
...if we live apart.
Is this the truth?
Yes. - I don't like it.
Yes, that happens with the truth sometimes.
We don't always like it.
But... Antonis?
I love you very much.
And from now on I'll always tell you the truth.
So that nothing confuses you anymore.
That's not easy.
No, it's not.
Yes.
Yes...
Yes.
