Love in the Countryside (2026) Movie Script

- We'll talk.
- Bye, sweetheart!
- Hello.
- Hello.
Can you help me with something?
Who, me? My family would die
if I have time, not even to breathe!
Well, do you know how they chase us?
Like horse thieves!
And with what money? Well, isn't it normal
that people go abroad to work?
Maybe I'll take an hour, a short medical
leave, but I don't know what to say.
Two at most, because there's
no manager here today. That's it.
Wait a minute, ma'am. I'm going
to tear up my employment contract.
I'll be right back!
What a free day today!
- Is that all?
- Yes.
I told you, miss,
that the pink purse wouldn't fit!
He caught you with air in your lungs.
- That was the last one. Cash or card?
- Card, please.
- Insufficient funds.
- What?
How much is it?
Give me what you've got, granny!
Hey, go get your dad, because
you're definitely tricking me again.
What, am I going to haggle with you?
Do you think I'm your customer, man?
If you're going to have a stroke,
what am I going to put on the table?
- One fifty per egg, like everyone else.
- One fifty? My goodness, my sins!
Hey!
Give me five eggs.
There are five.
And check the money,
because I don't have my glasses, okay?
Exactly, seven and a half!
Look at Mihai Viteazul, see?
With his long hair.
The receipt?
Don't lock the gate,
I'll come today and bring it.
- I don't have any ink.
- If you don't have ink!
That's how you do it,
you're haggling over an egg!
And when you die, people hang themselves
at the store because of your debts.
Nan, be aware!
- Your wallet.
- Oh my, thank you, man!
Others would have robbed you.
There are all kinds of people.
- She saw you, old woman...
- Adriane! Come here, man!
Hey, Dad, come see what a beautiful calf
the cow has given birth to.
- It's a marvel.
- Really?
Look, Dad, these cows too.
They're souls too, man.
They give birth, they love each other.
Move over so I can see.
No, go put your gloves on,
because you really need gloves.
- Come on, put them on quickly, please.
- Wait a minute, man!
Oh my God! Hurry up,
she's about to have another one!
What do you mean?
So what if we have two...
I think the calf could die,
without my gloves, right?
Come on and enjoy it.
Come on, man.
Come on, Dad, see the miracle of birth.
Well, don't be so fussy,
pull the gloves up to your elbows!
- Oh my!
- Pull now, don't you understand?
Oh my, spit a little in my palm.
Don't wipe it off on that shirt,
your mother will kill you!
What do I care about my shirt now?
Come here and help me, it's too big!
Put your hand in it and pull, you hear me?
How did he do it, man, where do two go?
- The calf is dying, pull, damn it!
- Don't ever call me again!
Please, please, don't scream!
It's still 5,000 euros.
Can't you manage with that for a month?
A month? I thought it was for a week!
Why the hell did you have children
if you can't take care of them?
My girl, it's a lot of money.
I can't give you large sums anymore
because you've bankrupted me.
SOS FOR CHILDREN
Look, 6,000, would that be alright?
- Hey, man, leave me alone, will you?
- What are you doing there?
None of your business. You give money
to your mistresses and I don't have any.
Come on, playtime is over.
You're begging me to give you money?
You won't get any more!
Pack your bags right now
and go to your granny in the village
to see how those children live there and
maybe you'll come back without complaints.
Man, you deserve to be arrested!
You're lucky that you're my father
and you gave me life!
Pack your bags!
Man, are you high?
THE TICKET WILL BE 60 CENTS FROM MONDAY
Hey! What's with that chicken over there?
You should also bring the cow in the bus.
Miss! God, you put yourself
in the emergency seat here!
In case of an emergency,
can you help the team?
What emergency?
For example,
someone gets drunk around here.
Will you help him downstairs,
so he doesn't make a mess in here?
Stay there!
Who the hell is going to pick you?
Matcha?
- That's the girl of...
- She's with the guy of...
- She living next to...
- No, man, that's not her!
It's the one from medical school.
Who hangs out
with the guy with the Jaguar.
- Her father owns the bread factory.
- Is she Mircea's sister?
- No, man, that's not her.
- Hey, anyway, she's really hot.
Yeah!
- I think she's pink somewhere.
- She's pink and beautiful.
- She's burgundy, that's right.
- She's indigo.
- Is she indigo?
- Yes.
Where have you heard that before?
Here, man, you check her neck.
- Is she indigo?
- Are you stupid?
It's Veta's, guys!
His dad has a lot of money.
That's Ana!
Ana, the one who used to come here.
She lives in Bucharest now,
maybe a student.
Well, she's pretty, but... her mother when
she was young, she was really beautiful.
Man, she was crazy about me! She
always came around when we were younger.
You guys played in the yard all day.
Of course, she always came!
She's crazy about me!
Get the hell out of here, you idiot,
is she looking at you?
What does she see in you,
can't you see what you look like?
Hey, we'd better play
rock, paper, scissors.
Whoever wins gets her.
- Yes, well done, man.
- Yeah, man, yeah.
But be careful.
Let's play rock, paper, scissors
and that's it.
Yes, man, let's do it like that, okay?
It works. Come on,
I had nothing to do at home anyway.
You're out, man.
You're out.
You've hypnotized us.
Anyway, I was
the most entitled to hang out with her!
I think you're forgetting that I...
had semi-sex.
Experience wins.
Come on, let me be brave.
My beautiful granddaughter
has arrived, let me see you.
Come here, let me kiss you.
Oh my, how big you've grown
since I last saw you!
And so modern...
- Tell me, what's the Wi-Fi password?
- What's that?
The Wi-Fi password. On your phone.
Zero, zero, zero, zero.
Like when your battery runs out?
Never mind.
Give this food to the pigs.
Throw it over the fence.
Me?
You disgusting pigs!
Why don't we catch him with anything?
He's not doing anything now, you see?
You think he steals something every day?
Man, I'm really onto this guy.
This kid has no limits.
He only causes problems for people.
Look, he's been stealing wood from me
for about two winters.
But I had nothing to catch him with!
He's been selling me wood for two winters!
Do you know how cheap he sells it?
You have to wait
for him to make a mistake.
Maybe you can provoke him into violence,
he fights around the village.
No chance, those guys stick together.
We need something else...
I'll do it. I'll do it somehow!
- What sandwich you have?
- Chicken.
Aunt Veta!
Damn you, go to hell!
Hello! Is Aunt Veta home?
Yes, she's home!
- What do you want, boy?
- Hello, Aunt Veta.
Grandma said to take those over there.
- Why are you leaving them there?
- "Those"?
Those ones...
you'd better call her, I don't know.
Yes, okay, I'll call her.
What are you doing with these, girl?
Didn't you say to feed the pigs?
Give them here, damn you,
you're good for nothing!
Do you still recognize me?
We used to play together as kids.
I don't remember anything about that.
Luckily.
When I fell into the well
and you told me I was stupid!
- But you said it like that... with a hint.
- What do you mean?
Hey! Go help Ana.
Back there with the manure,
since you're here anyway.
If you ever need anything,
just call me at the gate and I'll be here.
Look what a hard-working boy.
And handsome too!
Give me your phone
so I can get on Instagram.
Here.
Are you deaf? The phone, not the remote!
This is my phone.
It's simple. You take the
shovel and this is the manure.
You take the manure, scoop it up
with the shovel and put it in the bucket.
Like this.
I got some signal, I'll go on
Instagram and come back after, yes?
TODAY IS FOR FREAKY STUFF
- Who's the boy?
- A stupid peasant.
Really? I've seen other stupid peasants
and they're not all alike.
Where, on the bus? He's the mayor's son.
- Don't you have anything to do at home?
- No.
- You mean, leave?
- I mean, leave!
- More rare.
- Beef-mutton.
- But without beef.
- And no mutton.
- What did you do, man?
- It's tough with the girls from Bucharest!
You think it's like with these ones
around here, the village champions?
We're not even allowed in Bucharest, man!
- Why?
- Why! Do you have a passport?
You need a passport to go to Bucharest.
- Hey, you're really stupid!
- What did you do with her?
Man... She didn't say yes or no.
I mean... I still have a chance.
- That's it, man. He took her.
- He's asking for directions!
The mayor's son asking for directions?
Logan, 2025. Gasoline, power windows.
- Power windows?
- Yes, man, yes!
If his dad changes the school's roof
you'll see him with a different car!
So what, is she looking at a Logan?
She's from Bucharest!
How many of those has she seen!
Would a Logan impress her? Is it 2025?
Watch out for that peasant.
He's taking things from the yard.
What's he going to take? Grandma's crutch?
Are you from Bucharest?
Yes, my father sent me
to stay here for a while.
Well, don't you get bored
with all these fools?
I haven't talked to anyone,
and I can't stand the cold anyway.
What cold?
Do you compete with him?
Mind your own business!
- AC is AC. He turned on the heat.
- But who is that guy?
It's not who he is,
who you are is the problem.
The girl is sitting in the warmth, see?
She's riding in the car...
Did you want her to stay with you
with the cows?
It's hard, Adi.
We just have to come up with something.
Why don't you go out into the field
to gather information?
What does he say, where does
he want to take her, everything.
- I'm going!
- Come on!
- Yes, man, I'm going!
- Come on, man, just a little!
- On our side, man! On our side!
- Picea! Picea! Over there.
Close the gate.
- Aren't you going?
- I'm not going, man, I have a cold.
And I made some soup too.
Look, it's still burning nicely.
Dude, are you crazy?
Power windows, air conditioning...
It's the closest thing to Bucharest
I've seen since I came here.
Well, it's the coolest car
in the village here.
- Really?
- Yes.
- Does your father earn well as mayor?
- Well, like yours. He gets bonuses too.
Bonus for the bike path,
soccer field bonus...
Yes, but a Logan 2025? They had to
make a smaller synthetic one, right?
No, it shouldn't have been so conspicuous.
Here, in the village,
any expensive car stands out.
We keep a low profile, of course.
Listen, do you have someone there?
- A lover?
- Yes.
I see.
And what do you do here
when you want to have fun?
Honestly, there's not much to do.
I don't do anything at all.
- You can't talk to all these idiots.
- What do you mean?
If you see what that guy explained to me,
with the manure, with feeding the pigs,
he drowned me in explanations,
there is something to talk about!
Leave me alone with all these fools!
I told you, don't talk to them anymore.
What are you doing back home?
I like to go shopping,
to the beauty parlor...
There's no point in talking with all
those peasants. They're not your type.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- From the registry office, right?
- That's right.
I've come to highlight
a few things for you.
Miss is registered here?
No. They highlighted me in Bucharest.
Bucharest? Not my yard.
What year is this wreck?
Are you from the registry office
or the DMV?
Hey, I'm asking the questions here!
Talking to the people,
asking a few questions...
How should I register you?
Are you "girls"?
- I don't know, we'll find out.
- Finding out, I see...
- Are you going somewhere?
- Aren't you a little curious?
Curious? That's right. I'm rude!
I'll be damned if you don't take her out
to the lake around 8:30 or 9:00 p.m...
Enough?
Anyway. I'll want a signature here, okay?
Digital, if possible,
because that's how the instructions are...
You keep that one, okay? Have a good day.
I told you.
Yes, Mihai!
Hey, note that he has a bracelet and
he's holding it like this on his wrist.
On his wrist, right?
And he's wearing a blouse to look nice?
No, he has a leather jacket, you know?
A jacket, right? Man, you're stupid!
I sent you to gather information, man!
Are you making inventory of that guy?
- Well, I was gathering information.
- Get out of here, you idiot!
Power windows? I'll give you windows!
- Oops! You must be missing work!
- No, dad.
No, man! You got carried away,
otherwise there's no explanation.
No.
- What are you doing here then?
- I'm getting ready.
- For what?
- For the mayor's son.
Man, you're stupid, boy! Hey, you idiot!
Hey, man, be quiet,
or his dad will kill us.
These three rooms you see here,
I haven't declared them to the city hall.
That guy's coming, man, and he's
going to tear down even the fence.
Because I didn't get along
with Florica, damn her,
over six or seven square meters!
He can't wait to hurt me!
Damn it, get it over with,
you're eating away my soul!
You've eaten my soul! Damn your mayor!
Damn you all, you've ruined me!
So, let's be more diplomatic.
Can I get an iced coffee at your place?
We can have a coffee
from the machine and ice from the freezer,
next to the chicken legs.
I'm going crazy here.
I'm going home, we'll talk later.
EUROPEAN FUNDS
- Thank you.
- Listen.
What are you doing tonight?
- Do you want to come with me to a party?
- What party, a christening or what?
No. My father is organizing
a party here in the village.
Everyone is coming. We'll have food too.
- Pick me up at eight.
- Eight is fine.
- They are going to the party tonight.
- Great. Nobody saw you, right?
No way. I'm even wearing my camo jacket.
What are you doing there?
Nothing, ma'am. From city hall. Grafting.
Making sure no quinces fall on heads.
We would be in trouble.
- Did you convince her?
- Yes, of course.
But I should have worn a yellow jacket,
I didn't see the yellow leaves.
- Who's that guy you're hanging out with?
- A boy from around here.
- Is he the mayor's son?
- Yes. Why?
Damn him, he's a lazy bum.
How do you know that?
Be careful who you hang out with,
that guy is not particularly a groom.
He lives off his father's money,
he's good for nothing.
He's very good! He washes himself,
he has a car. It's what I'm used to.
Do the right thing and talk to Gigi's son,
he's a decent guy.
He speaks nicely to people,
not like this jerk.
He'll tell me how his cow gave birth
and how she has five calves, please.
Call your dad and see how angry he gets!
Is his father the mayor?
Well done, sweetheart. The right people.
Make sure those peasants don't ruin you.
Dad, can you send me
a helicopter with some stuff, please?
What stuff? Are you hurt?
Did something happen?
No, I need caramel syrup
and the coffee machine.
Well, ask your grandma
to make you a coffee.
- She doesn't have a machine.
- She has a kettle!
- Never mind, if she's sick, I won't ask.
- A kettle, the thing you make coffee in.
I wanted to ask you
where I can shower at Grandma's?
It must be on a chair,
somewhere around there.
What do you mean, "on a chair"?
Or we tickle his feet.
Because it always annoys me
when someone tickles my feet.
But if I sway on my feet...
So, we go to the party, find him there,
and then we'll deal with him. Simple.
- Hey, what about Ionu?
- Shouldn't he be here too?
- Yes, he should.
- Call him.
I've got no signal again.
Can't find one spot in this whole
village where I can make a phone call?
It's not the village's fault
you don't have a Digi subscription.
I have signal everywhere.
You're falling behind.
You don't have a license either...
Mihai doesn't have a license,
but he has that red line on his ID card.
No, we all have it, I'm joking.
I have one too, I'll show you!
Have you seen how he acts on the street?
"Hey, can you hear me?"
Didn't you see him raise his hand?
You're so handsome! Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
I saw you around the village.
You have good eyes!
Why are you hanging out with this idiot?
Oh my God. What is this?
David!
- What's up, man?
- Hey, what's this, man?
What kind of contract is this?
Is that how I raised you?
What, you're doubling the amount?
Only twice?
- What are we going to eat?
- He came with... He gave me...
Hey, my boy...
Don't you want to end up
at least as good as me?
Or even higher, get into politics.
If you're not in politics, you're nothing,
don't you understand?
We're changing this.
You're not asking only twice, come on.
Alright.
- Wait!
- What?
You didn't tell me.
Are you coming to the party or not?
Yes, I'm coming. I found a girl too.
- Really? Who?
- One from Bucharest.
Well done, man! I mean, I'm not surprised,
you have someone alike in the family!
- Well, see?
- But do you have money for her?
Well, I am my father's son, aren't I?
- Have you thought about it?
- Just a little.
Hold on, I'll bring something for you.
Let's see what we have here.
Not from the kindergarten, nor the
furniture. Playground. All for the kids.
Oh God, we need votes.
"Asphalt alleys"!
More thin asphalt,
because I'm a thin guy too.
Look, see where it's cut from.
For your Bucharest girl.
Should I give you more? Here.
Here. Actually, wait. That's too much.
Let's put some back.
- What about the rest?
- What rest?
Well, you only gave me... Look.
My boy, the rest
is for the public interest.
- Come on, not that again.
- What did you expect?
That I'd leave the village
without asphalt for your girlfriend?
Alright.
- Spare me.
- You still owe me.
Yes. It's hard nowadays.
I don't think that was the amount, but...
Let's write it five times.
Yes. That'll do.
- Hey, girl, that's for the toilet!
- How can it be for the toilet?
Do you think I'm stupid?
What's written on that bottle?
It's your perfume! That's what it says.
Listen, do you have a nice dress
I could borrow?
I thought about it, Grandma,
I'll wear the hoodie.
Here, girl,
take a dress, they're all youthful.
Maybe, but they're too tight for me.
You were slim, they don't fit me.
That's true.
I remember how your grandfather
used to fuss over me. What a man.
- The panties had just come off.
- Alright, stop, please.
Never mind, I'll wear something from home.
Take a look, Anuo.
Here, do you like this?
Come on, grandma, seriously?
Who am I, Maria Ltreu?
- David's here!
- Hello, hello.
Hello, man.
Here. I took this front table
because... Well.
- This is Mdlin.
- Ana, nice to meet you.
- Diana...
- Ana, nice to meet you.
Look how beautiful it is.
Bring that axe closer to the table.
Ana is dressed so beautifully,
I hope she's not cold.
If she is, I'll give her my bow tie.
Don't you think you're getting lost
in the details a bit?
Man, those guys have some crazy drinks.
- What kind of drink is this?
- The strongest drink in this village.
- I bought it with cash.
- How else can you buy it?
- With the card?
- Yes, with... a credit card.
But tell me, girl,
if you don't like it here!
"Girl"?
May my mother drop dead if I'm lying.
She can't wait for me to save her!
- Who?
- Ana, she just looked at me.
But just a little bit, you know?
I think she can't stand those idiots.
I really like you guys.
You're not like those stupid peasants.
Come on, this is a VIP table.
Only decent people here.
Turn down the music,
or turn it off, damn it!
- Give me the microphone. Is it working?
- It works.
Yes!
Good evening, everyone!
How are you feeling? Are you having fun?
Remember this in two months.
Don't forget who gave you this party.
And who takes care of the citizens!
Are we clear?
And now, allow me to introduce
my handsome boy
and the beautiful young lady next to him.
Put the spotlight on him! That's it!
My goodness, what beautiful young people!
Applause, what are you waiting for?
Listen to this bum! Why is Ana here?
The girl is from Bucharest! Yes!
Well, who wouldn't want to escape
the crowds in the city
for a few moments of peace
in our beautiful village?
Really, remind me. We need to build
a couple of apartment blocks
before these people come.
We can't deal with the immigrants!
That was a joke, yes. But a good joke.
Now let's continue.
I have a surprise for everyone here.
Who did I invite to perform
a special song for you?
The great Raiholt! Come on up here!
Attention, everyone!
- Good song! Let's hear it.
- Good evening, everyone!
We're doing a song for our beloved mayor.
And it goes something like this:
We have the best mayor.
When he runs for office,
he has no opponent.
He is a good and kind man.
Just what we need in city hall.
He is a good mayor in the community
And he gives us a better life.
He's never taken a step back
A mayor like ours is rare.
What do you say, Mr. Mayor?
Is it worth the money?
You'll get the money tomorrow. I told you.
Alright! So, my dear people...
Let's turn the music back on.
I wish you all to have fun, dance...
I have to go, I have mayor duties.
You know how busy mayors are.
All the best! Have fun! Turn up the music!
- I'll smash him, damn it!
- Relax, we've got this.
Did you see the other girl?
She's staring at you.
- Who?
- Vasilica.
Forget it, man, I didn't come for her.
- Ionu, you're going, right?
- Yes!
Go over there, you chat with him a little
and you give us a sign.
Alright, that's the plan.
Watch out, he's a tough guy.
He took two punches last week,
he didn't even flinch.
He didn't fight back.
He walked away proud.
- What's he saying to her?
- That there's going to be trouble.
- There will be trouble.
- That's what he said, I read his lips!
Good for him, at least he warned her.
So she doesn't get scared.
What trouble?
I've noticed you around.
You're very beautiful.
I don't think you're a good match
with David.
That's why I brought these idiots
with me. To fight.
Do you see what he's doing?
He's hitting on her, damn it!
Get ready, he's coming!
Hey, what's up, man?
What's your problem? What do you want?
- You think you're tough?
- What's wrong?
- Do you know who my father is?
- Who?
If it weren't for my father...
- Is this Gigi's kid?
- Tell me, lads!
Your dad did a nice job here.
And he made you real nice too.
Don't jinx it!
- He's still breathing.
- Is he still alive?
Are you stupid? You ruined everything!
There's nothing worse than betrayal.
What should we do now?
Maybe she'll get fed up with the guy.
And then what?
Will she help your dad with the wood?
What else, man?
What the hell is wrong with you?
Well done, peasant.
You finally did the right thing.
Listen, pay attention.
If this works out for me, and it will,
I'll make you my best man.
Well done, man. Put that hat back on.
This one's dedicated from Viorel to Nua!
- What do we do now? Stay longer?
- Let's finish this swill and go home.
"This swill"?
You think I didn't stick to plan B?
Dude, are you stupid? That's Stalinskaia!
You won't find it in the village!
- Put it back!
- I'll put it back.
It's for another time! Put it back!
- Come on, let's dance!
- Why are you pulling at me like that?
How the hell did I pull you? Let's dance!
- Stop drinking, you idiot.
- Let's dance.
- Come on! Let's dance!
- Let go of my hand, man!
Come on, man!
Look, man!
He never learns, man!
He's driving his father to the grave.
Look how he walks, man,
you'd think he's a peacock!
Thanks, Adrian. But you should know
that violence is never the answer.
Wow, Adrian!
- You knocked her out, she's dead!
- She's not dead, man!
She's wet, she's soaking wet!
Tomorrow you take her through the village.
Where? To the stork's nest!
Man, the guard is coming!
Do we have witnesses to what happened
to the mayor's son?
- I don't talk to snobs.
- Cops, you illiterate village idiot!
Tell me, did anyone see anything?
Shut up, all of you!
- Grandma! Where's your sink?
- I don't have one. Look in the yard!
Certainly, senator.
I'll get back to you,
my daughter is calling me.
Alright, thank you.
- I've learned my lesson, Dad.
- Really?
Do you now understand
how those people live there
and why you should be satisfied
with just 5,000 euros a month?
Yes, I want to come home, Dad.
And bring me an iced coffee,
please, so you don't find me dead.
She's crazy about you, I'm telling you.
Who knows! Anyway, she's not coming
to live with me here!
Why not?
She has expensive clothes and jewelry,
how am I supposed to support her?
How do you think
they made that money in the city?
- They went through challenges!
- What do you mean?
You don't have any money now,
but you don't need it either.
You're happy with some potatoes,
a piece of cheese and bed at nine.
Around 9:30 p.m.
But if you're with her
and you have to buy her certain things,
you'll have to work hard to make money.
What schooling do I have?
I'm practically illiterate!
Who will hire me? How can I make money?
You were a star at school!
You quit it early because of work.
But you are a smart guy, man!
Should I get her a gift
and take it to her gate?
Buy her a nice bouquet of flowers,
she'll love it!
There's this thing called love languages.
- Find her language.
- What's that?
I mean, words of affirmation,
quality time, services,
gifts, physical contact...
How do you know these things?
From the internet, I watch videos, man.
When you come back
we'll do a ritual to attract her.
By the creek, over there.
Get out of here, you've gone mad.
"By the creek"!
Shut up.
I wrote it down on this piece of paper.
Read it before you see her.
I've also drawn you a map.
If you want, I can explain.
What's there to explain?
You wrote it down, that's enough.
Explain it to me again, what...
Right, yes, the languages...
What map were you talking about?
Mom!
- Are you leaving?
- Yes, Dad is coming to pick me up.
Well, you only stayed for one day.
In one day I understood
everything I needed to.
Be thankful you didn't find me
flat on my back.
Come on, sweetheart,
you would learn if you'd stayed longer.
I haven't seen you in years.
You stay one day and you leave.
I can't stay any longer, Grandma.
I can't even wash myself properly.
I have to put one foot
in one basin and the other in the other!
Take the tub from behind the door!
Is that your problem?
- I'm leaving.
- Come on. Get undressed and stay.
At least say "thank you".
My dear, how I missed you.
You were gone for such a short time,
but I missed you so much.
- Where's my coffee?
- It's here, in the middle.
Do you want to stay?
Or have you learned your lesson?
I've learned it, Dad.
I can't wait to get back to civilization.
I even ripped those beautiful flowers.
What was I thinking?
Now he's also going to slap me...
What I get for hitting on his daughter.
For you... One is dead
because I have two small dogs.
Thank you! How did you think
about the flowers?
I was sitting there smoking
and I thought about it.
- Thank you!
- Nice gesture, young man!
- Cheers! Ana's dad?
- Yes!
Very nice car! Very beautiful.
I wanted to get one too,
I'd be dead if I didn't want one!
But where's the exhaust pipe,
in the front?
- What, is this diesel?
- It's electric!
Electric?
It's not the one I wanted. It's modified!
These are the best ones!
If you run out of power,
take two batteries
from the remote control.
Everyone says that!
Dad, call the driver to pick you up
and leave me the car, please!
I want to stay. Please!
- Okay, I'll let you have it.
- Thank you.
- Let me put these in a vase.
- Leave it there.
So? Won't you show me
around here a little? Do you have a mall?
No, because we have cars that run on gas
and it was demolished
about a couple of years ago.
I mean a big mall,
with makeup, clothes, coffee.
- Where do you guys watch movies?
- At a guy's place here, Nicu!
He has a bigger TV
and we all get together.
Go away.
But if you need a mall,
we have a... shopping place!
- Is this the shopping place?
- Yes!
Do you want to eat something
and then go somewhere?
Where? How many hundreds of kilometers
from here is there anything nice?
Come, you'll see! Shall I order you
some grilled minced meat too?
No, I'll order for myself.
Hey, over here!
Hello! Do you have crispy chicken?
- What should it be?
- Crispy!
Two seconds!
- Hey, do we have...
- Crispy!
Is there crispy in the back?
We don't have any, miss.
Tenders then?
Man, to hell with your grill!
You told me I sell grilled minced meat,
not that I'm taking an exam.
Miss, to put it simply: We sell grilled
minced meat, sausages, drumsticks...
- Drumsticks?
- Yes, chicken legs.
La Provincia chicken!
100% Romanian! Healthy fed!
Don't believe me? Two seconds!
Can you see there's no wind here?
They want to expand the place
this year or next year...
Look what I have in the fridge! See, miss?
I'm telling you,
this guy lived better than me!
- Interesting. Anything else?
- Yes, guts.
- What do you mean?
- Pig intestines, roasted!
- For dogs?
- No, miss, for people!
Do you eat that kind of thing?
The pig doesn't as many intestines
as I sell here!
They are the most sought after!
Did they touch each other there
on that side of the grill?
No, miss, God forbid!
Absolutely not, how could intestines
touch each other?
Look! I hold the intestines
above the grill, put my hand underneath
and, between my fingers
the fire comes and roasts it!
Of course it touched it!
Give us two grilled minced meat
and that's it.
But spray them with that anti-guts spray.
- What spray, man?
- That anti-guts spray...
The spray... Coming!
Look, miss!
That's it, I've destroyed it all.
Give it two or three more puffs, man!
Even Julius Caesar ate like that.
From Dealul Negru are the best, not chewy.
The mustard isn't really Romanian anymore,
because they sold it to the French.
Enjoy your meal, lovebirds!
Not that they wipe the table anyway.
I appreciate you so much, you know.
To survive here for so many years...
This food makes me feel like working.
- Will you come help me in the yard?
- Yes, let's go!
- Mine doesn't give milk!
- That's a billy goat!
But I saw a drop!
You hear that?
Hot water on blue, alright?
I made a mistake with those.
- There's no more paper!
- I brought some today.
Look over there, rummage around!
How did the match end last night?
But the chickens haven't laid
any eggs these days!
- Where did you find those eggs?
- I found a machine that makes eggs.
There were about thirty of them in it.
And they were warm.
What did you find?
Put all of them through to Aunt Veta.
Is there some kind of deal?
Why didn't you pay?
Your granny has a great deal,
but she said I should buy.
That's what the woman said.
How much did you expect it to be?
It's cold outside too.
See, it's above the average
for towers in Europe!
Come on, Monica. Come on.
I really like it!
Monica's steering wheel is pulling you.
Look, the top of the hill, there!
- What's that?
- Excuse me, please.
Yes, that's it! I really like
the atmosphere here!
And... me too, very much!
I like surprises, spontaneous things!
Have you heard of love languages?
Damn you, Ianis, with your videos!
Yes, love languages!
They can be words of affirmation,
quality time, acts of service,
gifts, or physical touch.
How do you know, you crazy person?
In the internet age
you have to be pretty stupid
not to be a little interested
in what's going on around you.
Yes, but I didn't expect that!
Anyway, I think my languages are
quality time, physical contact and gifts.
For the most part... for me,
services, you know, mostly!
- Yes? Why?
- Oh, no, screw those!
It feels kind of old-fashioned,
like when women have to do the work.
She doesn't have to, you know?
I mean, she can stay at home,
and let the man do it, in my opinion.
I'm going to check if we are all alone.
Kiss?
LINDIK WHERE DOES SHE PEE?
G-SPOT HOLE
Okay.
- Pour me some more wine, please!
- Yes, of course!
Thank you!
Hey!
Cheers, may you live long and healthy.
Come on, what are we waiting for?
I'll take the lead!
What are you doing?
Nothing, I think there's a mouse
and I can't concentrate.
I can go check it out.
Damn it, mice!
It's wet!
Where was it?
Are you sure you have done this before?
I've done a kind of semi-sex before.
Semi-sex? Let me show you the second half.
Rooster! If you can't manage
to fuck that chicken,
ask me, you fool! Any questions!
Ana! I'm going to make that coffee.
What the hell are you talking about?
Have you ever had sex?
You haven't done a damn thing, man!
I make it with coffee grounds.
It's my turn today. Come on!
Your turn to do what?
Read!
Split them into syllables.
- Where did you get stuck?
- At "S minus A".
Oh dear! How did you get to
to this age? "Minus"?
Should I take out the "S"?
- Fine, I'm going home.
- Home? Oh, you mean home.
You've gotten pretty used to it here.
So to speak. I'm going to take a shower.
- On a Tuesday?
- Yes, is it a holiday?
No, but people wash themselves
on Thursdays and Sundays.
I think I need to wash
today too, because, well!
With this sex thing,
since I also had sex...
Make sure you don't
"semi-wash" yourself, okay?
Don't you think I don't have
any pimples on my face since last night?
Dude, they're all gone, are you crazy?
I want to wash tomorrow too.
Hey, talk to me, you crazy women!
- I'm so sorry, Ana!
- For what?
- I heard the news! About the exile!
- What exile?
To the countryside?
It's not that bad, because I've learned,
there's not much difference anyway.
Girl, it's fine. You relax.
People there have no worries.
They don't stress about shopping bags
at the mall or the traffic of the city.
Where exactly are you in the countryside? I
saw on your story that you're in... Paris?
- No, I'm in Peri.
- I can't hear you, Ana.
The router is far away
and the house is very big here, you know?
Hey, girls, don't you want to video chat?
- Like in Mean Girls?
- Yes, that would be awesome!
Let's talk on the phone.
When we see each other,
we'll have missed each other so much.
Listen, are you living in poverty?
Are you ashamed?
What poverty? Are you crazy?
Hey, girl, have you found
anyone out there?
I don't think you're looking
at those stupid peasants!
- How could I look at them?
- God forbid, those sweaty guys.
- What's wrong with those sweaty guys?
- Are they even likeable?
Listen! What about that tattooed guy?
That filthy one doesn't sweat,
or what's the deal? I don't get it!
Hey, be careful.
I already explained to you
that they're not tattoos, it's tribal art.
Yes. Watch your tone, do you understand?
Do you think that if he puts on cologne,
he won't make you work anymore?
That's coming next!
God forbid, I hope you come to
your senses. You've completely lost it.
I already told you, he treats me well.
I even got my passport
so we can go on vacation.
You're such a damn idiot.
"Sweaty guys".
As if they don't wash themselves here.
Should I wear it
another two or three days?
Why exactly do you need a resume, man?
Ana hinted at something
about those love languages
that you mentioned.
- Did you say gifts or what?
- Yes, gifts.
You know, it doesn't
have to be something very expensive.
Sociologically, a "gift"
can also mean something
of sentimental significance
and without profound material value.
Come on, let's make this resume
because that's why we're here, after all.
Let's fill it out. Go ahead.
- Tongues?
- Fresh. Few hours ago.
Foreign languages, you fool.
I mean, what languages do you know?
What do I need languages for
at the van job?
Are the boxes going to speak French?
Forget the resume.
Who need something like that?
Help me with something else.
- Tell me.
- I want to sell something from the house.
What are you selling from the house?
Your father's kidney?
Everything at the garage sale.
I'll take it all to the gate!
But seriously, wasn't that gate
a little more to the left?
And further back?
Yes, both of those.
But then the highway people came.
They're building a highway to Slovakia.
They asked if they could take
a little bit of my land for a segment.
Surely it's not because
because you beat up the mayor's son?
It's got nothing to do with that.
It's for my homeland, for my country,
I made a sacrifice.
The mayor came, that's true,
but his hands are also tied.
You know how things work here.
Anyway, there are some interests
in my yard here!
Don't you always smell
gas when you come in?
Once or twice, you'd say
that it smells, but always?
Who knows what I've got lying around here.
- Come on, help me with those, please.
- Come on.
What's that?
It's Grandma's ring.
A Chernonbyl survivor.
And you're selling it instead of
giving it to someone missing a finger?
I'm selling it because it's
one of the most expensive ones.
Do you know what it does at night?
It glows in the closet.
Are you crazy?
You're not used to radiation!
Didn't you see that blue dog
in the yard? You'll get into trouble.
No, man, that's not a good idea.
Come on, let's find something else!
Well, what else can you sell?
- Carpets...
- Carpets and what else?
I have that hacksaw blade in the back...
The remote...
- What do you think?
- Dude, do you have a plasma TV?
- I want it, how much is it?
- A million and a half, man.
You don't need anything else,
you just watch movies.
- Man, are you crazy, is that all?
- That's all, man.
Is that all? That's all.
Hold it on that side. Easy.
- No.
- What do you mean, "no"?
I gave you a receipt for it,
don't bother me with this,
because they're already on our backs.
Don't mess with me. Hold it!
Oh dear!
- What are you doing there?
- I'm feeding the pigs.
You put too much water in it.
They'll leave it in the trough.
- How do you know that, girl?
- Because I know.
You're wasting that firewood.
They are too thick and they won't burn.
I see you've learned your lesson
in the country!
I've learned
at least while I'm still here.
Where are you taking that cow?
Because there's only one
patch of grass left.
You can see their ribs
and they don't produce milk.
Look! You're heating up some water to
wash yourself, you're used to it, right?
Just a little while longer,
I'll stay a few days and then I'll leave.
See, I put all your clothes in the wash.
After you wash,
take the ones behind the bed.
Knock on wood, my beautiful girl!
Come here, let me kiss you!
I forgot, Grandma,
that I need a coil when you kiss me.
Ana!
You look so beautiful!
I know, but don't get used to it.
I found out about that offer at the store.
My grandmother smashed the notebook.
- What offer?
- Are you kidding?
Are you buying on Grandma's tab?
Use your own!
- Well, I can't use my own!
- Why not?
That's what they do,
they put a stop to bad payers.
If you go over, they put a stop
and you can't take anything more.
- But I came for something else, you know?
- What?
Come here.
What?
- Do you want to go boating tonight?
- Like in Venice? I want to. So romantic!
But be careful, don't let anyone find out.
Don't talk to anyone.
Let us be alone there.
- I understand.
- Let me show you.
You mean, you'll take the lead tonight.
The net! Let's catch some fish.
The dam is full of fish.
- They caught a pike at my place...
- Wait, you're taking me fishing?
it was as big as a five-year-old.
You'll get me in trouble
if they hear, it's not fishing season.
They're as thick as the forearm!
I'M DOING IT FOR THE MONEY.
GOOD JOB, DAD.
SHE'S VERY STUPID AND GULLIBLE.
HER MONEY IS ALMOST GONE
You're screwed, peasant!
Ana! It's David!
Open up, Ana!
Let me show you who your Adrian really is.
Look what
this stupid peasant says about you.
What are these?
Instagram conversations.
When this guy punched me,
you were laughing!
Look what he did to my face!
Come on, come here!
- How are you, honey?
- "Honey"?
I found out what you said
about me, you peasant!
- What did you find out?
- Hey, man, spare me!
Go to hell, you stupid peasant!
I don't know why I even bothered with you!
- I'm asking you nicely to stay and talk!
- Get lost!
Ana!
- Were you attacking the girl?
- No, man, she's leaving to Bucharest!
- So what if she's leaving?
- Well, she's leaving with my money!
Your money? Did she steal your money?
- Come on, she's leaving! Catch her!
- Come on, get in the car. Quick!
Go, go!
Put on your seat belt!
Damn it! That's it!
Hello! Can anyone hear me? I need backup!
- What backup, man, he weighs 50 kilos!
- Shut up, that's the procedure!
Stop insisting during quiet hours!
Come on, man!
I'm in pursuit through the village!
What pursuit?
Wait until you get to the church,
those potholes will definitely stop it.
- Screw him!
- Use that horn!
Watermelons! Let's go get watermelons!
Damn thieves, I paid 5,000 for it.
Did you know that these are
already recorded?
About that pursuit...
Are we going to catch up?
What do you want? I'm doing my best!
I turned on the flashers
and the siren!
She doesn't look in the mirror.
She does, but she's not looking for you!
- She's checking her lips.
- There's nothing I can do!
Give it to me, man!
Hey, are you crazy?
You're getting me in trouble!
If you don't catch her, won't you have
bigger problems? Give it to me, man!
Let's switch.
We take scrap metal, used batteries,
tv sets, refrigerators...
Come on!
- Seatbelt.
- Look at that!
You know what? I'm fine with that.
If I had hit her, I'd have to pay.
Now you will.
- Shoot, man, screw it!
- Wait, it's not... it's stuck.
If you put them on your back, always!
Hit the gas!
- Hold on, man!
- I am.
- Hold on!
- Take it easy, you're going to break it!
- Do we have enough gas?
- Yes!
- Will it last?
- I don't know!
- There's no fourth gear!
- Keep it in third!
I haven't used fourth since last summer.
- Did it start raining?
- They said it would.
- Leave me the hell alone with your stuff!
- My laundry is outside!
- Have you ever chased a thief before?
- No, this is my first time.
I'm a little nervous, like this!
My heart is pounding with excitement!
Ugly driving, man,
get the hell out of here!
You'll see that Nae didn't...
he didn't put gas in the tank!
Does it have petrol?
What are we going to do?
Well, we have to stop to switch to petrol.
We have an engine valve, in front!
- Look, fourth gear!
- Press that clutch!
- Where? It's stuck!
- You're breaking the lever!
- I'll put it in third.
- Give it.
- Second gear is better.
- Third.
Okay, third.
It's not working very well.
Maybe the second gear.
And how much do I
get for this night shift?
- Talk to me, please!
- What the hell do you want, man?
David showed me
what you said about me on Instagram!
What?
Read it! You lying bastard!
What happened?
The voice message won't play.
There's no signal!
- You idiot! Read what it says!
- Yahoo Messenger?
What did I have to do with you back then?
What app is that?
- Instagram!
- Since when do I have Instagram?
Yes, man, can't you see? Adi Boss!
I don't have that.
And secondly, I don't write
with these little squiggles either!
With what?
Those little things between the letters.
Yes, man!
That's right! It's "S minus A."
You don't know this calculation!
Well, yes, I don't know it!
How can I write it if I don't know?
- Well, why would David do that?
- Why? To break us up!
Because we're beautiful together
and I stole his girlfriend!
- What are you doing?
- I'm going to open the door...
Take it easy.
How can I say
something like that about you?
I really enjoyed the time
we spent together!
Me too, and I'm sorry I didn't believe you
at first, but you saw it too.
It's okay!
What are you thinking?
You've made me curious,
you don't seem like the thinking type!
I also thought about what you told me
about the languages of love, about gifts...
And I called to get a job!
- Where?
- On the van.
- Hey, are you stupid?
- Where else?
I don't have a diploma,
nor a single piece of paper!
That's not what I meant!
Poor guy!
Is that why you were upset?
Yes! Everyone was
asking me what was wrong!
My grandmother made me eat,
but who felt like eating, man...
I wasn't talking about money.
I meant for you to bring me
a little flower or something!
Oh dear! I'm even handy around the house!
I fainted and hit my head
on the bedside table!
- Come on, you're fabricating, go to hell!
- Yeah, I'm doing that.
I hope you never leave again
and I'll be the best
version of myself for you.
I'm so glad to hear that.
- I love you.
- Me too.
Hello! I need backup near the church!
He stole my police car!
He threatened me with a gun!
What, me?
Shut up! I'm officially informing you
that you are being recorded!
How long did you think you could keep
doing whatever you wanted in this village?
Did you think I wouldn't catch you
doing something?
Miss, did you really steal
this guy's money?
Me, stealing his money? No!
Then mind your own business!
I have no problem with you! Move it!
Move! Move!
Fuck the whole police department!
- Assault is no joke, miss.
- Get lost!
TO BE CONTINUED
- We're going to end up in jail...
- Wait, I'll call my dad.
Yeah? I was calling my dad too,
but he's up on the hill, gathering wood.
I don't want to bother him.
