[brooding music plays]
[man] Baby,
by the time you get this,
I might already be dead.
[upbeat music plays]
[woman] Is everybody ready for the bingo?
- [cheering]
- [woman] All right
[man] They've found me.
Excuse me, can I have a beer, please?
I'm surrounded.
[woman] All right.
[man] At first,
I thought it was Interpol, but no.
With the way these guys move,
they can't be cops.
[woman] Guys! Bingo!
[man] I don't know if I can get out.
Come on, guys! A little bit louder.
Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[all] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[man] I never really told you
about my old life.
Maybe because I didn't want you
to see me that way.
But, baby
I don't think
I'm gonna make it out of this one.
[woman] Fiesta, all day! Here we go!
[upbeat music continues]
[woman] All right!
There we go, there we go!
[glass smashes]
- [man] Hey, sorry.
- [waiter] Hey.
- Show me the closest bathroom.
- [waiter] Yes, follow me, please, sir.
[cheering and clapping]
[waiter] The bathroom is right there, sir.
You can turn this way.
Wait, sir! It's this way.
[man] If I don't come back home,
I need you
to tell John and Eddie I love them.
Okay?
Every day.
Every second.
[tense music plays]
- [distant upbeat music plays]
- [woman] Okay, here we go!
Let me hear you in the back!
Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[crowd] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[woman] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[man] And when they're old enough,
I want them to know
who their dad really was,
and what happened.
When Eddie was born,
I swear,
I've never been more afraid in my life.
[woman 1 screams]
I see you, sweetie. I see you, I see you.
[screaming continues]
Here. All right.
We're here, honey. Okay?
Okay, okay, okay, okay. Okay. Okay.
You're okay, just hold my hand.
Hold my hand.
- Oh, Rami! Rami, it hurts!
- We're almost there, we're almost there.
[woman 1 whimpers]
[sirens wail]
Breathe. Breathe. Please.
The hospital's right here. Look, I see it.
[woman 1 cries]
[Rami] Excuse me, excuse me. Hey!
- [woman 1 moans]
- [Rami] Can you come and help us?
[woman 1] Ow, ow, ow!
- Honey, come on. Here we go.
- [woman] I can't. I can't get out.
- Come on, let's go.
- [woman 1] It hurts, Rami!
[woman 2] Come on,
we'll help you. Come on.
- [Rami] Come here, sweetie.
- [woman 2] I've got you.
- [woman 1 moans]
- [woman 2] Let's get you inside.
You're okay, you're okay.
- Oh, no!
- Honey, hey!
- No, no, no!
- Hey!
You're doing great. Okay?
I'm so proud of you.
Karin, I'm Anna, your doctor.
We have to sedate you.
- No, no.
- The baby needs to come out now.
- No, no.
- It'll be okay. We're gonna do it now.
I don't want to. No!
You're okay. Hey. Hey.
Hey, baby. Honey, hey.
Hey. Baby, you're okay.
It's okay.
- [Karin screams]
- [machine beeps]
Let's go!
Hello, son.
[Eddie murmurs]
[Rami] I've never been as happy
as I was 30 minutes later.
Oh, hey.
- [midwife] Wow. Is this your first?
- [Eddie cries]
Um, no, it's my second, actually.
[midwife] Then you know how to do this.
- Uh, not really.
- [midwife] Mm.
I missed the first one.
[midwife] You can sit right there.
- Over here?
- Yes,
And you can take off your jacket.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- [Eddie cries]
- Aw. [clicks tongue]
- [Eddie cries]
- Hello.
Here you go.
[Rami] You were in the recovery room.
I sat with Eddie against my chest.
And I started thinking about the
psychologist I saw in Norrtälje prison.
This psychologist used to say, "Rami,
in order to break away
from being a criminal,
you have to form a new identity."
"One that's even stronger."
♪things that I should say
Say 'em ♪
[Rami] I thought of my childhood,
and of Michel, my best friend,
who you've never really met.
- Rock, paper, scissors.
- Rock, paper, scissors.
♪I could share ♪
[Rami] That psychologist wanted so badly
to see it as us taking revenge on society.
That we just stole what others were given.
If you're not gonna buy anything,
then you need to get out. Both of you.
[Michel] Come on, let's go.
[man in Turkish] Why aren't you eating?
Eat your food!
[Rami in English] She really wanted
to find something to blame.
A father too strict.
A mother too kind.
A neighborhood.
♪man should be free ♪
[Rami] A friend.
- [Michel] Hi, Rami!
- [Rami] Hi, Michel.
♪could give all I'm longing ♪
I'll wait here.
I wish I could live ♪
Like I'm longing to live ♪
I wish ♪
- Hey!
- Run!
Run!
[man] Stop right there!
- Hey!
- [Rami] Damn it!
[man] Hey, stop!
Come here! Damn kids, come back here!
Stop running! Get back here!
Wait!
[Rami] Michel!
[Rami] But the truth is
[Rami] Hurry up and drive!
[Rami] The truth is that we became robbers
'cause we loved it.
[Rami] Go, go. Go, go, go, go, go!
[dance music plays]
- [Michel] Stop the car!
- [Rami] Stop the fucking car!
- [Michel] Stop! Stop the car!
- [Rami] Stop the car!
[tires screech]
[dance music continues]
- [Michel] Out of the car!
- [Rami] Get out of the car right now!
- [Michel] Out of the car.
- [Rami] On the ground!
- Closer, closer. Closer! Closer, I said!
- [Michel] Come here! Down, down, down!
Good, stay there. Stay there.
[Rami] Come here. Stay here.
Eyes on the ground!
Five!
- [Michel] Hey, cover your ears.
- [Rami] Four, three, two, one!
- [Michel] Hey.
- [guard groans softly]
- [Michel] What's your name?
- [guard] Mm, Pa Patrik.
- [Michel] What're they paying you, Patrik?
- [Patrik] Uh, 22 kronor a month.
[Michel] Are you gonna
play Rambo for 22,000? Get up!
Listen, if your bosses wanted to stop us,
they would have,
but it's cheaper to pay out the insurance
money than to think about your safety.
Open the safe.
[Rami] In the end,
it wasn't even about the money anymore.
It was about winning.
[robber] Is it open? Next one!
[tense music plays]
[Rami] And Michel,
he was the fucking best.
[Michel] Lie down, Patrik.
Come on. Lie right there.
[Patrik] Okay.
[Michel] Go, go, go, go!
[Rami] You'd never know it
just looking at him.
[Michel] I'll take the last one.
Let's go!
[electronic dance music plays]
[tires screech]
This is how we do it!
That's what I'm talking about!
That was crazy!
[cheering]
[dance music continues]
[Rami] Most people give
themselves away in the end.
Michel did the opposite.
Middle, this way, this way.
[Rami] No watches, no cars.
Nothing that would draw attention.
I didn't do anything.
[Rami] Long before 30,
he was a legend in the business.
But during the week, he still worked
as a youth leader out in Fittja.
[orchestral music plays]
Michel was always three steps ahead.
To the police, he was like a ghost.
He thought bigger than everyone else.
Dreamed bigger.
This, Karin,
was my life when you and I met.
When you looked into my eyes
for the first time,
the spark you saw, the drive, the desire,
the one you fell in love with,
that was the robber in me.
[orchestral music continues]
[music fades]
- Stay here.
- [Rami] Then, when John was born
when I promised you'd never
have to visit me in a prison again,
I meant it.
[John cries]
I didn't hesitate for a second
to break away from everything,
everyone.
Even Michel.
[John cries]
It's your dad.
[Rami] And when Eddie arrived,
I stood there by the maternity ward
and watched the sun rise.
I remember thinking
about that psychologist.
She was right.
[Rami] She's here now.
She's here.
[Rami] I wasn't a robber anymore.
I had created
a greater, stronger identity.
[brooding music plays]
[Eddie cries]
He's here.
[brooding music continues]
[music stops]
[waitress] Can I get a salmon,
no sauce, with potatoes?
A salmon without sauce,
boiled potatoes, coming up.
[waitress] One plaice and one pan steak
without onions for table three.
Uh, we're out of the plaice.
Can you check if salmon's okay?
- [man 1] Rami?
- Yeah.
[man 1] The guests are saying
the sauce isn't fresh.
[Rami] It's a fucking sauce mix.
What can I say?
- What the hell's the difference?
- I don't have time to make a béarnaise.
[man 1] Hurry up.
We have guests waiting out there.
Pick up the pace.
Hey, hey, Rami. I don't wanna see
that texting crap while you're at work.
Okay, three plates of pan steaks
with onion sauce coming out.
- A little love too, yeah?
- [waitress] Mm-hmm.
There you go.
Uh, do you know
exactly when the shipment's coming?
[man 2] 6:30 at Pier 12.
Perfect.
And the distributor,
they know how many kilos we've got?
- [man 2] Yeah, and they can't wait.
- Good.
[man 1] Cut the cake!
[cheering]
[man 1] Olle.
- [Rami] Hey, sweetie. Hey, ba-ba-ba-ba.
- Hi.
Is that your papa?
[man 1] Who's next? All right.
Now it's your turn. There.
- Rami?
- Mm.
Weren't you trying
to lose a couple of pounds?
Yeah, I did.
- [man 1] Are you sure?
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm sure.
- [man 1] All right, then.
Go ahead, grab a spoon.
- You've made this place look so nice.
- That's Karin.
[woman 1] But you must have
contributed something, right?
I don't recognize that one.
Oh yeah, the Middle Eastern curtain.
- [woman 1] Yeah, that's nice.
- Mm-hmm, that was Karin.
At least three months.
Uh, at the most, a year.
But the dream is to, uh,
buy our own place soon.
Just for us.
Well, the Södra Station area is honestly
much cheaper. Per square foot.
Uh, as long as you can
put up with the architecture. [chuckles]
- Yeah, yeah. I really liked it.
- [woman 2] Will there be more?
[man 2] Yes, yes.
[man 3] Exactly.
We were just talking about it.
[man 2] Yeah, no. I'm honestly not sure.
- Thanks for today, ladies.
- [woman 3] Thank you.
Right, okay. Going for another round, huh?
Well, I didn't eat.
- Didn't have much time.
- [man 1] It's really good.
Look.
Maybe it's the wrong day to talk business,
but since I haven't heard anything
[Rami] Damn, I'm sorry.
Work just has me wiped out.
Um,
well, the first shipment's been sold.
Restaurants seem willing to buy
from us directly, instead of a middleman,
so we've been getting
more calls than ever.
And Hassan?
Hassan says that we will probably
make a profit in the first year.
Okay.
- I'll find Karin.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.
[brooding music plays]
Could you run down to ICA
and buy some Ben & Jerry's?
[Rami] Are you kidding? The whole
damn house is full of Princess cake.
Yeah, but we need diapers too.
- Såja.
- [baby murmurs]
I'm really tired.
I've been out working all day.
Well, I haven't slept in two years.
Sure, neither have I.
I squeezed out
two fucking watermelons, all right?
I haven't been to the bathroom alone
in two years.
And I'm the one breastfeeding. Thanks.
Cookie dough.
[male radio host] The economy in Sweden
continues to struggle.
The value of all Swedish goods, the GDP,
has increased by over 6% since 2008.
Even if 6
[female radio host] loss of jobs
in almost all sectors.
Office and industry jobs especially have
[door opens]
[man whistles]
[Michel] Yo.
[quiet suspenseful music plays]
[laughs] Whoa!
[both laugh]
- [Rami] Hey!
- [Michel] Oh my God.
- [Rami] Look at you!
- How are you?
What happened? You've disappeared.
- What about this?
- Oh, man.
- Damn.
- [Michel] I missed you.
[Rami] Know how many times
I almost called you?
- [Michel] Is that so?
- [Rami] I swear. I'm regretting it now.
[Michel] No, no regrets.
I know you're a dad now.
- Yeah, there's two of 'em now.
- Oh, that's great.
- Man, congrats.
- You have to meet them.
- Mm. Also, what are you doing here?
- Yo, listen, let's grab a beer.
- But, bro, I said that I'd
- Just one.
- Karin's waiting on this.
- Just one.
- Come on.
- Hey?
- Did you have fun?
- Okay, I forgive you.
[Michel] What's up?
[upbeat music plays]
I wanna tell you, I wanna ♪
[Michel] Listen,
I met with that guy, Guido.
Hamid. He still goes by that then?
He said you were running
some kind of business.
- There you go.
- Thanks so much.
- Shoes are right over there.
- We're not bowling, we're good.
[waitress] It's happy hour.
A game is included.
Okay, thank you.
He said shrimp, or What's that about?
Shall I explain?
Then I gotta go home.
Look.
Here is
Norway.
Here's Sweden.
And the North Sea.
Everyone fishing for shrimp
does it here in the North Sea.
The shrimp that come up are small.
The meat's all loose.
To get better shrimp, you need to go
to the coast off Greenland.
The problem is that
you can't ship them to the east coast
before they lose quality.
But we cracked the code.
We brought in a brand-new freezer.
We have a container here. The fresh shrimp
go straight in the container.
From the container,
we ship them all the way to Stockholm.
- Know what happens then?
- [Michel] What?
The shrimp lose zero quality.
[Michel] How the hell
did you come up with this?
- Well then?
- Do you remember Sulle?
He imported, uh, flowers from Amsterdam.
Yeah, I know.
What's his name, Suleyman? Mm-hmm.
Sulle knew a guy at the port in Frihamnen.
He's a Turk.
His name was Hassan Kaya.
And Hassan, he has
this whole infrastructure thing, right?
Everything. Export, import.
He's been doing shrimp for 20 years.
They needed an investor, and
I found investors.
I invested my own money.
Then I borrowed some money.
Hm. Who else is on board?
My father-in-law.
- Granit, and some others.
- Granit?
- [Rami] He's only a middleman.
- Okay.
You're going all in.
[Rami] With everything I have.
Everything?
I'll show you something.
Look at this.
"Rami Farhan, Ishavsimport AB. Importer."
Family man, law-abiding citizen.
Shrimp director. [laughs]
Karin's a designer now.
She actually made it for me.
Enough about me.
Bro, tell me everything.
What have you been up to?
[Rami] He could have said
that he was trying to get clean.
Even if it was still about,
well, cash management.
He could have told me about the briefcase
he was trying to sell
for his business partner.
[man] Eleven hundred.
[funky music plays]
Thanks. Hello.
[Rami] It was Zoran
who'd come across the blueprints
for G4S's German-made security briefcase.
Then he produced his own briefcase
with similar specifications,
but at a third of the price.
[Michel] We have
built-in surveillance cameras.
We have hidden microphones inside
[Rami] Michel knew
they wouldn't buy the briefcase.
The contract extended
ten years into the future.
But there was one way
the deal could be broken.
If someone found a way to crack
the briefcase and posted it on YouTube,
G4S would be forced to replace
all 6,200 of its cases.
An order for 200 million.
And Michel and Zoran,
they would be first in line.
[Zoran] Come on. No worries, man.
This way.
[Rami] That's why they flew in
one engineer after another
to a tire repair shop in Tumba,
each one having a more or less successful
idea of how to disarm the briefcase.
- [saw whirs]
- [small explosion]
[funky music continues]
[man] Three, two, one.
[small explosion]
[Rami] Now they had placed all their hopes
on a Slovenian engineer
who had designed
a titanium guillotine for them.
Look.
Each mount has a chemical rocket engine.
[Rami] With a single cut,
it could sever the dye packs
and release the cash.
Or he could have said
something about Alex,
the girl he was seeing.
She brought an old dream of his
back to life.
But he just said
Rolling along, bro. Same as always.
- [woman] Woo!
- [man] Come on, to the right!
[Rami] And when we parted ways, he said
Call me if you wanna do something.
- Anything.
- [Rami] We both knew what he meant.
[Michel] All right.
[Rami] And we both knew that I wouldn't.
[Rami] Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Could you open it?
[man] Do you live here?
- Yeah, upstairs.
- [man] But you don't have a fob?
No, 'cause I forgot it.
I live on the third floor.
I just bought some diapers.
[man] What's your name?
Well, my name is Farhan,
but I'm not listed on there.
I have a short-term lease.
Uh, I'm sorry. They've emailed us
about not letting in people like
[Rami] P-People like
People like what? Hey!
Are you kidding?
[knocking on glass]
Hey!
Asshole.
[cell phone dials]
Hi, you've reached Karin.
I can't come to the phone
[door closes]
- [Karin] Rami?
- Hi, honey.
[Karin] Where have you been?
I forgot the fob
and wasn't allowed in. Damn it.
[Karin] What do you mean "not allowed in"?
I'm sorry, but it melted.
It's nothing, honey.
If you look like me, you need your name
written in flames on the door,
or people will think you're a burglar.
I'm so fucking sick of this.
Never mind what some veiled racist says.
We need our own place.
I'm sick of these short-term leases.
After my maternity leave ends,
we can go back to the bank
and have my father co-sign for us.
[sighs] Or we won't need him.
What?
It was gonna be a surprise.
The first shipment's coming tomorrow.
And Hassan says that after the third
or fourth shipment, I could
take out a salary.
And then we can buy a black-market
contract at the turn of the year.
[Karin chuckles softly]
[gentle music plays]
- [chuckles] We're not dancing.
- [Karin] We are.
- What the hell?
- [Karin] Come on.
- Hm.
- There.
Shall we do one of those?
- You know, I only know that other dance.
- I know, but you take one hand like so.
Then your hand like this.
The boring dance.
And it should be a little soft here.
Mm. How soft?
Like that.
- Like this?
- Mm.
- Okay.
- And then we'll go
One and two, and one and two
Let's do the other one.
Which one?
- This one?
- That dance.
Okay.
[gentle music continues]
Seriously.
Mm?
Forget what you think people see in you.
Fuck that.
You know what I see in you?
A sexy boy.
[both chuckle]
I see someone who is so damn brave.
Someone who has changed his whole life.
Who sets the example
that fucking anything is possible.
And then it just so happened that
I fell in love.
- Mm.
- Mm-hmm.
How in love?
Very in love.
I'm in love with you.
Very in love.
[gentle music continues]
[Rami groans] Sweetheart.
[Rami sighs]
[toy squeaks]
- [John] Hello.
- Hello.
[John] Hello.
Daddy, wake up! Wake up!
Of course.
Oh, fuck!
[upbeat music plays]
[horn honks]
- [Rami] Excuse me!
- [man 1] Hey! You can't walk around here.
[Rami] I'm expecting a delivery of shrimp.
Do you know where Pier 12 is?
- Yeah, there.
- [Rami] Right.
- Seriously, you can't walk around here.
- I know, I know.
Hey, man! Sorry.
- Have I missed anything?
- Nah, boat's not here yet.
Okay, damn it.
Shouldn't it be here at 6:30?
[man 2] He's a shrimp fisherman.
Think he knows the time?
- [Rami] And Hassan?
- [man 2] Nah, he wouldn't come.
He thought we were idiots for coming here.
A couple of containers, that's all.
It's not a show.
Of course, of course.
Should we sit in the car?
- Actually, can we see the pier from there?
- [man 2] Yeah.
Was everything ready with the first load?
Everything is sold?
Oh, yeah.
Half goes out as product samples
for the restaurants,
and we sell the rest.
I spoke to the guy at Riche yesterday.
- He's all for it.
- [Rami] Mm.
- [man 2] You can smell it, right?
- What?
Money, Rami. The smell of money. [laughs]
Hassan spoke to the trawlers right?
You're sure there was
nothing with the weather?
[man 2] Everything's cool.
[Rami] Hey, excuse me.
- Yes?
- [Rami] Hey.
Hi.
[Rami] We're waiting for a shipment
here on Pier 12.
- [woman] Okay.
- This is the designation number.
Right. Q-2-4
is that a four? Yeah.
Hm.
- [man 3] Can you cover tomorrow's shift?
- [man 4] Yeah, sure.
[woman] Uh
No, I'm sorry. It's not here.
Are you sure?
You didn't really look though.
Yes, I did.
I don't see the number you said
on here, I'm sorry.
There's no boat logged on Pier 12.
Could we have missed it?
[cell phone dials]
[indistinct electronic message]
- Answering machine.
- Call again.
[cell phone dials]
Why don't we grab some coffee somewhere?
I'm going to his office.
If he's not answering his phone,
he won't be in the office.
[door thuds]
[wood cracks, glass smashes]
[sighs] What the fuck?
[objects crash]
[solemn music plays]
[man 2] What happened?
[solemn music continues]
- Did you scam me?
- What the hell are you talking about?
Where
- You're gonna show me where he lives.
- I don't know where the hell he lives.
Maybe Gothenburg or Landskrona.
Somewhere on the west c
Listen to me, you little fuck! Don't you
get it, that it wasn't just my money?
- Rami!
- I'm fucking screwed now!
- I don't know what the hell's going on.
- Tell me where he lives, you fucker!
- Tell me where he lives.
- I don't know him better than you!
He got me onboard. Then I brought you on.
That's all I know. I'm telling you!
- Tell me!
- It's the only thing I know.
- [man 2 groans]
- Fuck!
[man 2 whimpers]
I let you down.
[tense music plays]
[gags]
[music stops]
[Rami] Hey.
- [Karin] Check this out!
- [Rami] Cava? Champagne.
I thought we should celebrate a little.
Did it go how you wanted?
Well, uh, not quite.
But, yeah, you know.
- How are you?
- But you didn't bring anything back?
What do you mean?
- [cork pops]
- Woo! [chuckles]
Some shrimp.
No, but you know,
they're, uh
Uh, they're in a container, so
[Karin] Cheers.
[glasses clink]
Hey.
You know how proud I am of you, right?
Mm. I know.
[indistinct chatter and laughter]
- Oh, hey!
- Hi.
- How are you?
- I'm good.
Good.
[indistinct chatter]
[woman 1] That should be fine.
I think, once this is out of the oven,
I can start on the Oh!
There you are.
How nice of you to show.
- [Michel] Yeah. Sorry.
- Salaam.
- [Michel] Hello.
- Brother, Mom wants to talk to you.
- [Michel] Salaam.
- How are you?
- Where in the world have you been?
- I know, I know, Dad. I'm sorry.
- Hi, how are you?
- Hey, good. it's good to see you.
- Welcome.
- Yeah, thanks.
The room is packed.
Yallah, salaam. Hello.
Hi, how are you? All right?
Hello! Salaam. Hi, how are you?
- Hey. Good to see you.
- [Michel] Happy you're here. How are you?
Hey, good to see you.
- Hi, Mom.
- [Mom] Say hello to the girls' father.
- Salaam, sir.
- Great to meet you.
- Hi, how are you?
- It's very nice to meet you.
- How's it going?
- My lovely son is finally here.
- [woman 2] Can you pass me a plate?
- I actually have already eaten, sorry.
Papa, can you bring
a plate out here for Michel?
I'm really okay.
- All right, I'll grab that. Thanks.
- Over here.
- Here we go.
- Thank you.
Here's your plate. Enjoy your meal.
The food is wonderful.
- Anyway, now she's saying it's too much.
- [woman 2] Too much?
So, what do you do for a living?
I'm working as a youth recreation leader
at a school.
Are you satisfied? Yeah?
Yes.
Well, it's all right.
[woman 1] Brother. Have a spare?
Thank you.
- You fucked me up.
- [woman 1 laughs]
- [woman 1] What did I do?
- Well, you could've warned me. Damn.
[woman 2] Come on.
I'm a good girl.
- Good?
- [woman 1] Mm-hmm.
- Really? That's what you say.
- Very good.
- Good girl, get lost.
- [woman 1 laughs]
You and Mom are just messing things up.
What is it with you two?
Really?
[woman 1] Mom's right, you know?
You don't want a girlfriend.
You don't want a good career.
Youth recreation leader. So you wanna be
a youth recreation leader forever?
Why are you messing things up?
Look, I'm satisfied.
[soft music plays]
[woman 1] I don't know. It's a shame.
Don't you have a dream?
[soft music continues]
[cell phone buzzes]
Rami, table four has been
waiting for over 20 damn minutes.
- I'm by myself. I'm doing the best I can.
- [man] Work a little faster, damn it.
Here, food.
[message alert beeps]
2 P.M., THE CHESS SET, KULTURHUSE
YOU HAVE TO COME
[man] Hey, Rami? What the hell did I say?
Put away that damn cell phone!
- Don't touch me!
- [man] I'll touch you as much as I want!
- Don't touch me!
- [man] What do you mean?
You came out of prison
and asked me for a job.
"Please, please, Shamon, give me a job."
I give you a job and what do you do to me?
You were going straight.
- You should take this.
- What the fuck are you doing?
- That's for you.
- Are you out of your mind?
- You do not wanna be doing that shit.
- Yeah, I do.
- Gonna try me, fucker?
- What're you gonna do?
- Go fuck yourself!
- You wouldn't fucking dare.
I'll fuck you up!
Don't fucking walk away from me.
I swear, if you walk out that door,
you'll never set foot in here again!
Then go! Get out!
[somber music plays]
[cell phone buzzes]
[cell phone continues buzzing]
[Rami] Hey, bro.
[man 1] Come here.
What's this?
[man] Why have you been ducking my calls?
You know how stressful it's been.
It's gonna get way more stressful
if you don't pay. Understand?
You threatening me?
I'm not threatening you.
They are.
Bro, I don't get it.
We're childhood friends.
I don't give a fuck about our childhood.
Idiot, if you don't pay me,
I can't pay them.
I want you to think about one thing.
You haven't been scammed. Okay?
They haven't been scammed either.
Mm.
I have been scammed.
I will make this right.
It'll take some time.
But I will make it right.
I'll have your money.
I want you to think about something too.
You have a family, don't you?
- [man 2] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
- [man 1] No, let me go!
[in Spanish] Listen!
You're going to pay me!
Otherwise, your wife pays
with her pussy and her ass.
[man 1 in English] They don't give a fuck
about your time. They want their money.
You should go get a loan.
Get out of here.
I told you to get out of here!
[man 3 in Spanish] Son of a bitch.
[solemn music plays]
- [Karin] Where the hell are you?
- I said I was going to a meeting.
[Karin] What the hell, did you forget?
You were gonna take John.
I'm taking Eddie
to the health care center.
[solemn music continues]
CALLING
Hey, man. Um, I wanted to tell you
I slightly changed plans.
Can we meet at 5:00 instead,
at the same place?
- Hey, bro.
- [man] Rami.
- [Rami] Sorry I was late, man.
- You're good.
- Okay, tell me. What you got?
- [man] Täby racecourse.
The thing with Täby
is that they keep all of their cash
in a shabby little metal locker
that they keep in a room
behind the main office
while they wait for the guards
to pick it up.
They come at midnight.
- [Rami] How many guards?
- Seven.
One is ours, of course.
Listen, bro, um
I can't go on a percentage.
I need at least five or six million.
[man] I know, bro.
I heard about the shrimp thing.
- From who?
- [man] The whole damn city.
[Rami] People caught on
that I was back on the market.
[Rami] Anner!
- All good?
- Hey bro.
[Rami] I don't know
how the hell word got around.
[man] We'll have guys outside
with two security vans waiting.
- [baby murmurs]
- And how do we get to Bergshamra?
[man] The place
is full of superfast horses.
[Rami] Horses?
[Rami] I don't know
why I didn't just call Michel right away.
Pride, maybe?
When I finally made the call,
he just said
[Michel] Come to the White Room at 1:30.
- Bro, I I just can't be
- [disconnected tone beeps]
[dance music plays]
[Michel] Rami!
Rami!
Rami!
Hey, dude! Here, here, here!
How are you? What's up?
- Should we talk here, or?
- Nah, come, come on.
Hey, Rami.
- Hi.
- [woman laughs]
- Hi. Nice to meet you. Hi.
- Pleasure.
- This is Alex. She's from Denmark.
- Okay.
[Alex] I'm originally from Copenhagen.
Have you ever been?
I actually have, yeah.
Beautiful, of course.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
[Michel] Alex actually moved here
'cause she's studying. She's a writer.
No. No, I'm just studying.
I'm not a writer.
[Michel] You are!
Stop it. I'm not a writer.
I went to this one school.
An an art high school.
Biskops-Arnö. Have you heard of it?
But that I'm not a writer.
[Michel] One of her stories was published.
What's it called?
- It was called The Noughties.
- Noughties.
In a literary journal.
But I'm not a writer. I have a job.
Yeah, yeah, I work counting money.
What did you say?
Um, I I count money. That's my job.
I count money
for a company that handles cash.
- Okay.
- [Alex] Yeah.
You're the first person I've met
that works counting cash.
It's pretty cool.
That's my real job. I'm not a writer,
Michel says that to be sweet.
The only thing is
The only sad thing is that it is very far.
- Really far, on the other side of town.
- Yeah, all the way in Västberga.
Yeah, there it is.
- Okay.
- [Alex] G4S, uh
I have a super long commute every morning,
but that's okay.
[Michel] I always tell her
that she should write about
the similarities between money and death.
For example, look, listen Mortuaries.
A mortuary is always
in the basement of the building.
I've never heard of one on the 56th floor.
Why? Nobody knows. That's just how it is.
Dead bodies in the basement.
and the same thing with money.
Money's always in the basement.
Bank vaults, for example.
But with us, it's the opposite.
I don't understand.
Isn't the vault in the basement?
Yeah, it is, but there's a lot more money
up in money counting.
That's on the sixth floor, the top floor.
- Mm-hmm, that's right.
- [Rami] Wow.
Yeah, exactly.
So it won't work. It's a beautiful theory,
but it does not work.
Yeah, I thought Money And Death
would be a great movie title. Honestly.
[dance music continues]
[Alex] Sorry, I'm a bit
- All good?
- Uh
Jessica's telling me that they won't
let her and Zaynab come in.
Go and get 'em then.
- Yeah, see ya.
- See you in a bit.
- Are you fucking insane?
- What's the matter?
What's the matter with you?
Are you kidding me right now?
We have a huge shot here.
How long have we dreamt of this?
Rami.
See you.
Rami!
[dance music continues]
[Rami] Excuse me.
[Michel] Hey, get in.
- [man 1] Taxi.
- [man 2] Taxi.
- [man 3] Looking for a taxi?
- I'll take the train, man.
What train? Just get in, bro.
Come on.
- [man 4] Taxi.
- [man 5] Taxi.
- [man 6] Taxi?
- I don't want to.
I'm just trying to drive you home.
What's the matter with you?
[Rami sighs]
[solemn music plays]
[Michel chuckles]
[solemn music continues]
- This is way too late for me.
- Mm.
Seriously, bro.
- I really gotta go home.
- [Michel] Yeah.
You can drop me off on Gullmarsplan,
I'll walk from there.
Yeah.
- [Rami] "Yeah."
- W-What?
- [Rami] Are you listening?
- I'm listening!
Relax, dude. I'm just gonna do one thing
on the way. You'll be home right after.
[solemn music continues]
- [Rami] Take your hand off the blinkers.
- Why? I'm gonna use the blinkers.
[Rami] No, you don't need to here.
I'm turning left though.
[Rami] You can only turn left
on this street.
But if I wanna use my blinkers,
then I will.
- [Rami] You don't actually need to though.
- Okay. Bro, I know how to drive.
I know.
- And you got a free lesson too.
- [Michel] Okay, thanks for the lesson.
[solemn music continues]
[Michel] I won't lie.
I've missed exactly this.
Standing here,
thinking, dreaming, planning.
- [Rami] Yeah? It's still impossible.
- [Michel] Hm.
Alex remembers exactly
what it looks like in there. Exactly.
What does she know about you?
Nothing.
[sirens wail]
Okay.
- Let's say we have an insider, right?
- Mm-hmm.
That still doesn't change that
the police station's on the same street.
How many meters is that?
- Three hundred?
- Two-hundred and fifty-five.
[chuckles]
They'd get us
before we'd even get out of the car.
Or let's say
that we do get out of the car.
- Hm.
- [Rami] And we go through the first door.
- Okay.
- [Rami] And then what?
There's still 15 to 20 locks left.
That's where we went wrong.
Listen, they always think that people
like you and me strike from below.
You know?
What do you mean?
Helicopter.
Look,
we land on the roof,
blow our way in.
We climb down.
We take the money, and fly out.
Easy.
Easy.
[Rami chuckles]
[electronic music plays]
- And the police?
- [Michel] Fuck the police.
They're standing down here with their
dicks in their hands, waving us goodbye.
[both laugh]
- [Rami] You hear how this sounds, right?
- Exactly. It sounds
[electronic music continues]
My brother.
- Hm?
- [Michel] Hm.

[man] Baby,
by the time you get this,
I might already be dead.
[upbeat music plays]
[woman] Is everybody ready for the bingo?
- [cheering]
- [woman] All right
[man] They've found me.
Excuse me, can I have a beer, please?
I'm surrounded.
[woman] All right.
[man] At first,
I thought it was Interpol, but no.
With the way these guys move,
they can't be cops.
[woman] Guys! Bingo!
[man] I don't know if I can get out.
Come on, guys! A little bit louder.
Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[all] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[man] I never really told you
about my old life.
Maybe because I didn't want you
to see me that way.
But, baby
I don't think
I'm gonna make it out of this one.

[woman] All right!
There we go, there we go!
[glass smashes]
- [man] Hey, sorry.
- [waiter] Hey.
- Show me the closest bathroom.
- [waiter] Yes, follow me, please, sir.
[cheering and clapping]
[waiter] The bathroom is right there, sir.
You can turn this way.
Wait, sir! It's this way.
[man] If I don't come back home,
I need you
to tell John and Eddie I love them.
Okay?
Every day.
Every second.
[tense music plays]

Let me hear you in the back!
Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[crowd] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[woman] Bingo, bingo, bingo!
[man] And when they're old enough,
I want them to know
who their dad really was,
and what happened.
When Eddie was born,
I swear,
I've never been more afraid in my life.
[woman 1 screams]
I see you, sweetie. I see you, I see you.
[screaming continues]
Here. All right.
We're here, honey. Okay?
Okay, okay, okay, okay. Okay. Okay.
You're okay, just hold my hand.
Hold my hand.
- Oh, Rami! Rami, it hurts!
- We're almost there, we're almost there.
[woman 1 whimpers]
[sirens wail]
Breathe. Breathe. Please.
The hospital's right here. Look, I see it.

[woman 1] Ow, ow, ow!
- Honey, come on. Here we go.

[woman 2] Come on,
we'll help you. Come on.
- [Rami] Come here, sweetie.

You're okay, you're okay.
- Oh, no!

- No, no, no!

You're doing great. Okay?
I'm so proud of you.
Karin, I'm Anna, your doctor.
We have to sedate you.

- The baby needs to come out now.
- No, no.
- It'll be okay. We're gonna do it now.
I don't want to. No!
You're okay. Hey. Hey.
Hey, baby. Honey, hey.
Hey. Baby, you're okay.
It's okay.
- [Karin screams]
- [machine beeps]
Let's go!
Hello, son.
[Eddie murmurs]
[Rami] I've never been as happy
as I was 30 minutes later.
Oh, hey.
- [midwife] Wow. Is this your first?
- [Eddie cries]
Um, no, it's my second, actually.
[midwife] Then you know how to do this.
- Uh, not really.
- [midwife] Mm.
I missed the first one.
[midwife] You can sit right there.
- Over here?
- Yes,
And you can take off your jacket.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- [Eddie cries]
- Aw. [clicks tongue]
- [Eddie cries]
- Hello.
Here you go.
[Rami] You were in the recovery room.
I sat with Eddie against my chest.
And I started thinking about the
psychologist I saw in Norrtälje prison.
This psychologist used to say, "Rami,
in order to break away
from being a criminal,
you have to form a new identity."
"One that's even stronger."

[Rami] I thought of my childhood,
and of Michel, my best friend,

- Rock, paper, scissors.

[Rami] That psychologist wanted so badly
to see it as us taking revenge on society.
That we just stole what others were given.
If you're not gonna buy anything,
then you need to get out. Both of you.
[Michel] Come on, let's go.
[man in Turkish] Why aren't you eating?
Eat your food!
[Rami in English] She really wanted
to find something to blame.

A mother too kind.
A neighborhood.

Wait!
[Rami] Michel!
[Rami] But the truth is
[Rami] Hurry up and drive!
[Rami] The truth is that we became robbers
'cause we loved it.
[Rami] Go, go. Go, go, go, go, go!
[dance music plays]
- [Michel] Stop the car!
- [Rami] Stop the fucking car!
- [Michel] Stop! Stop the car!
- [Rami] Stop the car!
[tires screech]
[dance music continues]
- [Michel] Out of the car!
- [Rami] Get out of the car right now!
- [Michel] Out of the car.
- [Rami] On the ground!
- Closer, closer. Closer! Closer, I said!
- [Michel] Come here! Down, down, down!
Good, stay there. Stay there.
[Rami] Come here. Stay here.
Eyes on the ground!
Five!
- [Michel] Hey, cover your ears.
- [Rami] Four, three, two, one!
- [Michel] Hey.
- [guard groans softly]
- [Michel] What's your name?
- [guard] Mm, Pa Patrik.
- [Michel] What're they paying you, Patrik?
- [Patrik] Uh, 22 kronor a month.
[Michel] Are you gonna
play Rambo for 22,000? Get up!
Listen, if your bosses wanted to stop us,
they would have,
but it's cheaper to pay out the insurance
money than to think about your safety.
Open the safe.
[Rami] In the end,
it wasn't even about the money anymore.
It was about winning.
[robber] Is it open? Next one!
[tense music plays]
[Rami] And Michel,
he was the fucking best.
[Michel] Lie down, Patrik.
Come on. Lie right there.
[Patrik] Okay.
[Michel] Go, go, go, go!
[Rami] You'd never know it
just looking at him.
[Michel] I'll take the last one.
Let's go!
[electronic dance music plays]
[tires screech]
This is how we do it!
That's what I'm talking about!
That was crazy!
[cheering]
[dance music continues]
[Rami] Most people give
themselves away in the end.
Michel did the opposite.
Middle, this way, this way.
[Rami] No watches, no cars.
Nothing that would draw attention.
I didn't do anything.
[Rami] Long before 30,
he was a legend in the business.
But during the week, he still worked
as a youth leader out in Fittja.
[orchestral music plays]
Michel was always three steps ahead.
To the police, he was like a ghost.
He thought bigger than everyone else.
Dreamed bigger.
This, Karin,
was my life when you and I met.
When you looked into my eyes
for the first time,
the spark you saw, the drive, the desire,
the one you fell in love with,
that was the robber in me.
[orchestral music continues]
[music fades]
- Stay here.
- [Rami] Then, when John was born
when I promised you'd never
have to visit me in a prison again,
I meant it.
[John cries]
I didn't hesitate for a second
to break away from everything,
everyone.
Even Michel.
[John cries]
It's your dad.
[Rami] And when Eddie arrived,
I stood there by the maternity ward
and watched the sun rise.
I remember thinking
about that psychologist.
She was right.
[Rami] She's here now.
She's here.
[Rami] I wasn't a robber anymore.
I had created
a greater, stronger identity.
[brooding music plays]
[Eddie cries]
He's here.
[brooding music continues]
[music stops]
[waitress] Can I get a salmon,
no sauce, with potatoes?
A salmon without sauce,
boiled potatoes, coming up.
[waitress] One plaice and one pan steak
without onions for table three.
Uh, we're out of the plaice.
Can you check if salmon's okay?
- [man 1] Rami?
- Yeah.
[man 1] The guests are saying
the sauce isn't fresh.
[Rami] It's a fucking sauce mix.
What can I say?
- What the hell's the difference?
- I don't have time to make a béarnaise.
[man 1] Hurry up.
We have guests waiting out there.
Pick up the pace.
Hey, hey, Rami. I don't wanna see
that texting crap while you're at work.
Okay, three plates of pan steaks
with onion sauce coming out.
- A little love too, yeah?
- [waitress] Mm-hmm.
There you go.
Uh, do you know
exactly when the shipment's coming?
[man 2] 6:30 at Pier 12.
Perfect.
And the distributor,
they know how many kilos we've got?
- [man 2] Yeah, and they can't wait.
- Good.
[man 1] Cut the cake!
[cheering]
[man 1] Olle.
- [Rami] Hey, sweetie. Hey, ba-ba-ba-ba.
- Hi.
Is that your papa?
[man 1] Who's next? All right.
Now it's your turn. There.
- Rami?
- Mm.
Weren't you trying
to lose a couple of pounds?
Yeah, I did.
- [man 1] Are you sure?
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm sure.
- [man 1] All right, then.
Go ahead, grab a spoon.
- You've made this place look so nice.
- That's Karin.
[woman 1] But you must have
contributed something, right?
I don't recognize that one.
Oh yeah, the Middle Eastern curtain.
- [woman 1] Yeah, that's nice.
- Mm-hmm, that was Karin.
At least three months.
Uh, at the most, a year.
But the dream is to, uh,
buy our own place soon.
Just for us.
Well, the Södra Station area is honestly
much cheaper. Per square foot.
Uh, as long as you can
put up with the architecture. [chuckles]
- Yeah, yeah. I really liked it.
- [woman 2] Will there be more?
[man 2] Yes, yes.
[man 3] Exactly.
We were just talking about it.
[man 2] Yeah, no. I'm honestly not sure.
- Thanks for today, ladies.
- [woman 3] Thank you.
Right, okay. Going for another round, huh?
Well, I didn't eat.
- Didn't have much time.
- [man 1] It's really good.
Look.
Maybe it's the wrong day to talk business,
but since I haven't heard anything
[Rami] Damn, I'm sorry.
Work just has me wiped out.
Um,
well, the first shipment's been sold.
Restaurants seem willing to buy
from us directly, instead of a middleman,
so we've been getting
more calls than ever.
And Hassan?
Hassan says that we will probably
make a profit in the first year.
Okay.
- I'll find Karin.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.
[brooding music plays]
Could you run down to ICA
and buy some Ben & Jerry's?
[Rami] Are you kidding? The whole
damn house is full of Princess cake.
Yeah, but we need diapers too.
- Såja.
- [baby murmurs]
I'm really tired.
I've been out working all day.
Well, I haven't slept in two years.
Sure, neither have I.
I squeezed out
two fucking watermelons, all right?
I haven't been to the bathroom alone
in two years.
And I'm the one breastfeeding. Thanks.

What happened? You've disappeared.
- What about this?
- Oh, man.
- Damn.
- [Michel] I missed you.
[Rami] Know how many times
I almost called you?
- [Michel] Is that so?
- [Rami] I swear. I'm regretting it now.
[Michel] No, no regrets.
I know you're a dad now.
- Yeah, there's two of 'em now.
- Oh, that's great.
- Man, congrats.
- You have to meet them.
- Mm. Also, what are you doing here?

- Karin's waiting on this.
- Just one.
- Come on.
- Hey?
- Did you have fun?
- Okay, I forgive you.
[Michel] What's up?
[upbeat music plays]
I wanna tell you, I wanna ♪
[Michel] Listen,
I met with that guy, Guido.
Hamid. He still goes by that then?
He said you were running
some kind of business.
- There you go.
- Thanks so much.
- Shoes are right over there.
- We're not bowling, we're good.
[waitress] It's happy hour.
A game is included.
Okay, thank you.
He said shrimp, or What's that about?
Shall I explain?
Then I gotta go home.
Look.
Here is
Norway.
Here's Sweden.
And the North Sea.
Everyone fishing for shrimp
does it here in the North Sea.
The shrimp that come up are small.
The meat's all loose.
To get better shrimp, you need to go
to the coast off Greenland.
The problem is that
you can't ship them to the east coast
before they lose quality.
But we cracked the code.
We brought in a brand-new freezer.
We have a container here. The fresh shrimp
go straight in the container.
From the container,
we ship them all the way to Stockholm.
- Know what happens then?
- [Michel] What?
The shrimp lose zero quality.
[Michel] How the hell
did you come up with this?
- Well then?
- Do you remember Sulle?
He imported, uh, flowers from Amsterdam.
Yeah, I know.
What's his name, Suleyman? Mm-hmm.
Sulle knew a guy at the port in Frihamnen.
He's a Turk.
His name was Hassan Kaya.
And Hassan, he has
this whole infrastructure thing, right?
Everything. Export, import.
He's been doing shrimp for 20 years.
They needed an investor, and
I found investors.
I invested my own money.
Then I borrowed some money.
Hm. Who else is on board?
My father-in-law.
- Granit, and some others.
- Granit?
- [Rami] He's only a middleman.
- Okay.
You're going all in.
[Rami] With everything I have.
Everything?
I'll show you something.
Look at this.
"Rami Farhan, Ishavsimport AB. Importer."
Family man, law-abiding citizen.
Shrimp director. [laughs]
Karin's a designer now.
She actually made it for me.
Enough about me.
Bro, tell me everything.
What have you been up to?
[Rami] He could have said
that he was trying to get clean.
Even if it was still about,
well, cash management.
He could have told me about the briefcase
he was trying to sell
for his business partner.
[man] Eleven hundred.
[funky music plays]
Thanks. Hello.
[Rami] It was Zoran
who'd come across the blueprints
for G4S's German-made security briefcase.
Then he produced his own briefcase
with similar specifications,
but at a third of the price.
[Michel] We have
built-in surveillance cameras.
We have hidden microphones inside
[Rami] Michel knew
they wouldn't buy the briefcase.
The contract extended
ten years into the future.
But there was one way
the deal could be broken.
If someone found a way to crack
the briefcase and posted it on YouTube,
G4S would be forced to replace
all 6,200 of its cases.
An order for 200 million.
And Michel and Zoran,
they would be first in line.
[Zoran] Come on. No worries, man.
This way.
[Rami] That's why they flew in
one engineer after another
to a tire repair shop in Tumba,
each one having a more or less successful
idea of how to disarm the briefcase.
- [saw whirs]
- [small explosion]
[funky music continues]
[man] Three, two, one.
[small explosion]
[Rami] Now they had placed all their hopes
on a Slovenian engineer
who had designed
a titanium guillotine for them.
Look.
Each mount has a chemical rocket engine.
[Rami] With a single cut,
it could sever the dye packs
and release the cash.
Or he could have said
something about Alex,
the girl he was seeing.
She brought an old dream of his
back to life.
But he just said
Rolling along, bro. Same as always.
- [woman] Woo!
- [man] Come on, to the right!
[Rami] And when we parted ways, he said
Call me if you wanna do something.
- Anything.
- [Rami] We both knew what he meant.
[Michel] All right.
[Rami] And we both knew that I wouldn't.
[Rami] Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Could you open it?
[man] Do you live here?
- Yeah, upstairs.
- [man] But you don't have a fob?
No, 'cause I forgot it.
I live on the third floor.
I just bought some diapers.
[man] What's your name?
Well, my name is Farhan,
but I'm not listed on there.
I have a short-term lease.
Uh, I'm sorry. They've emailed us
about not letting in people like
[Rami] P-People like
People like what? Hey!
Are you kidding?
[knocking on glass]
Hey!
Asshole.
[cell phone dials]
Hi, you've reached Karin.
I can't come to the phone
[door closes]
- [Karin] Rami?
- Hi, honey.
[Karin] Where have you been?
I forgot the fob
and wasn't allowed in. Damn it.
[Karin] What do you mean "not allowed in"?
I'm sorry, but it melted.
It's nothing, honey.
If you look like me, you need your name
written in flames on the door,
or people will think you're a burglar.
I'm so fucking sick of this.
Never mind what some veiled racist says.
We need our own place.
I'm sick of these short-term leases.
After my maternity leave ends,
we can go back to the bank
and have my father co-sign for us.
[sighs] Or we won't need him.
What?
It was gonna be a surprise.
The first shipment's coming tomorrow.
And Hassan says that after the third
or fourth shipment, I could
take out a salary.
And then we can buy a black-market
contract at the turn of the year.
[Karin chuckles softly]
[gentle music plays]
- [chuckles] We're not dancing.
- [Karin] We are.
- What the hell?
- [Karin] Come on.
- Hm.
- There.
Shall we do one of those?
- You know, I only know that other dance.
- I know, but you take one hand like so.
Then your hand like this.
The boring dance.
And it should be a little soft here.
Mm. How soft?
Like that.
- Like this?
- Mm.
- Okay.
- And then we'll go
One and two, and one and two
Let's do the other one.
Which one?
- This one?
- That dance.
Okay.
[gentle music continues]
Seriously.
Mm?
Forget what you think people see in you.
Fuck that.
You know what I see in you?
A sexy boy.
[both chuckle]
I see someone who is so damn brave.
Someone who has changed his whole life.
Who sets the example
that fucking anything is possible.
And then it just so happened that
I fell in love.
- Mm.
- Mm-hmm.
How in love?
Very in love.
I'm in love with you.
Very in love.
[gentle music continues]
[Rami groans] Sweetheart.
[Rami sighs]
[toy squeaks]
- [John] Hello.
- Hello.
[John] Hello.
Daddy, wake up! Wake up!
Of course.
Oh, fuck!
[upbeat music plays]
[horn honks]
- [Rami] Excuse me!
- [man 1] Hey! You can't walk around here.
[Rami] I'm expecting a delivery of shrimp.
Do you know where Pier 12 is?
- Yeah, there.
- [Rami] Right.
- Seriously, you can't walk around here.
- I know, I know.
Hey, man! Sorry.
- Have I missed anything?
- Nah, boat's not here yet.
Okay, damn it.
Shouldn't it be here at 6:30?
[man 2] He's a shrimp fisherman.
Think he knows the time?
- [Rami] And Hassan?
- [man 2] Nah, he wouldn't come.
He thought we were idiots for coming here.
A couple of containers, that's all.
It's not a show.
Of course, of course.
Should we sit in the car?
- Actually, can we see the pier from there?
- [man 2] Yeah.
Was everything ready with the first load?
Everything is sold?
Oh, yeah.
Half goes out as product samples
for the restaurants,
and we sell the rest.
I spoke to the guy at Riche yesterday.
- He's all for it.
- [Rami] Mm.
- [man 2] You can smell it, right?
- What?
Money, Rami. The smell of money. [laughs]
Hassan spoke to the trawlers right?
You're sure there was
nothing with the weather?
[man 2] Everything's cool.
[Rami] Hey, excuse me.
- Yes?
- [Rami] Hey.
Hi.
[Rami] We're waiting for a shipment
here on Pier 12.
- [woman] Okay.
- This is the designation number.
Right. Q-2-4
is that a four? Yeah.
Hm.
- [man 3] Can you cover tomorrow's shift?
- [man 4] Yeah, sure.
[woman] Uh
No, I'm sorry. It's not here.
Are you sure?
You didn't really look though.
Yes, I did.
I don't see the number you said
on here, I'm sorry.
There's no boat logged on Pier 12.
Could we have missed it?
[cell phone dials]
[indistinct electronic message]
- Answering machine.
- Call again.
[cell phone dials]
Why don't we grab some coffee somewhere?
I'm going to his office.
If he's not answering his phone,
he won't be in the office.
[door thuds]
[wood cracks, glass smashes]
[sighs] What the fuck?
[objects crash]
[solemn music plays]
[man 2] What happened?
[solemn music continues]
- Did you scam me?
- What the hell are you talking about?
Where
- You're gonna show me where he lives.
- I don't know where the hell he lives.
Maybe Gothenburg or Landskrona.
Somewhere on the west c
Listen to me, you little fuck! Don't you
get it, that it wasn't just my money?
- Rami!
- I'm fucking screwed now!
- I don't know what the hell's going on.
- Tell me where he lives, you fucker!
- Tell me where he lives.
- I don't know him better than you!
He got me onboard. Then I brought you on.
That's all I know. I'm telling you!
- Tell me!
- It's the only thing I know.
- [man 2 groans]
- Fuck!
[man 2 whimpers]
I let you down.
[tense music plays]
[gags]
[music stops]
[Rami] Hey.
- [Karin] Check this out!
- [Rami] Cava? Champagne.
I thought we should celebrate a little.
Did it go how you wanted?
Well, uh, not quite.
But, yeah, you know.
- How are you?
- But you didn't bring anything back?
What do you mean?
- [cork pops]
- Woo! [chuckles]
Some shrimp.
No, but you know,
they're, uh
Uh, they're in a container, so
[Karin] Cheers.
[glasses clink]
Hey.
You know how proud I am of you, right?
Mm. I know.
[indistinct chatter and laughter]
- Oh, hey!
- Hi.
- How are you?
- I'm good.
Good.
[indistinct chatter]
[woman 1] That should be fine.
I think, once this is out of the oven,
I can start on the Oh!
There you are.
How nice of you to show.
- [Michel] Yeah. Sorry.
- Salaam.
- [Michel] Hello.
- Brother, Mom wants to talk to you.
- [Michel] Salaam.
- How are you?
- Where in the world have you been?
- I know, I know, Dad. I'm sorry.
- Hi, how are you?
- Hey, good. it's good to see you.
- Welcome.
- Yeah, thanks.
The room is packed.
Yallah, salaam. Hello.
Hi, how are you? All right?
Hello! Salaam. Hi, how are you?
- Hey. Good to see you.
- [Michel] Happy you're here. How are you?
Hey, good to see you.
- Hi, Mom.
- [Mom] Say hello to the girls' father.
- Salaam, sir.
- Great to meet you.
- Hi, how are you?
- It's very nice to meet you.
- How's it going?
- My lovely son is finally here.
- [woman 2] Can you pass me a plate?
- I actually have already eaten, sorry.
Papa, can you bring
a plate out here for Michel?
I'm really okay.
- All right, I'll grab that. Thanks.
- Over here.
- Here we go.
- Thank you.
Here's your plate. Enjoy your meal.
The food is wonderful.
- Anyway, now she's saying it's too much.
- [woman 2] Too much?
So, what do you do for a living?
I'm working as a youth recreation leader
at a school.
Are you satisfied? Yeah?
Yes.
Well, it's all right.
[woman 1] Brother. Have a spare?
Thank you.
- You fucked me up.
- [woman 1 laughs]
- [woman 1] What did I do?
- Well, you could've warned me. Damn.
[woman 2] Come on.
I'm a good girl.
- Good?
- [woman 1] Mm-hmm.
- Really? That's what you say.
- Very good.
- Good girl, get lost.
- [woman 1 laughs]
You and Mom are just messing things up.
What is it with you two?
Really?
[woman 1] Mom's right, you know?
You don't want a girlfriend.
You don't want a good career.
Youth recreation leader. So you wanna be
a youth recreation leader forever?
Why are you messing things up?
Look, I'm satisfied.
[soft music plays]
[woman 1] I don't know. It's a shame.
Don't you have a dream?
[soft music continues]
[cell phone buzzes]
Rami, table four has been
waiting for over 20 damn minutes.
- I'm by myself. I'm doing the best I can.
- [man] Work a little faster, damn it.
Here, food.
[message alert beeps]
2 P.M., THE CHESS SET, KULTURHUSE
YOU HAVE TO COME
[man] Hey, Rami? What the hell did I say?
Put away that damn cell phone!
- Don't touch me!
- [man] I'll touch you as much as I want!
- Don't touch me!
- [man] What do you mean?
You came out of prison
and asked me for a job.
"Please, please, Shamon, give me a job."
I give you a job and what do you do to me?
You were going straight.
- You should take this.
- What the fuck are you doing?
- That's for you.
- Are you out of your mind?
- You do not wanna be doing that shit.
- Yeah, I do.
- Gonna try me, fucker?
- What're you gonna do?
- Go fuck yourself!
- You wouldn't fucking dare.
I'll fuck you up!
Don't fucking walk away from me.
I swear, if you walk out that door,
you'll never set foot in here again!
Then go! Get out!
[somber music plays]
[cell phone buzzes]
[cell phone continues buzzing]
[Rami] Hey, bro.
[man 1] Come here.
What's this?
[man] Why have you been ducking my calls?
You know how stressful it's been.
It's gonna get way more stressful
if you don't pay. Understand?
You threatening me?
I'm not threatening you.
They are.
Bro, I don't get it.
We're childhood friends.
I don't give a fuck about our childhood.
Idiot, if you don't pay me,
I can't pay them.
I want you to think about one thing.
You haven't been scammed. Okay?
They haven't been scammed either.
Mm.
I have been scammed.
I will make this right.
It'll take some time.
But I will make it right.
I'll have your money.
I want you to think about something too.
You have a family, don't you?
- [man 2] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
- [man 1] No, let me go!
[in Spanish] Listen!
You're going to pay me!
Otherwise, your wife pays
with her pussy and her ass.
[man 1 in English] They don't give a fuck
about your time. They want their money.
You should go get a loan.
Get out of here.
I told you to get out of here!
[man 3 in Spanish] Son of a bitch.
[solemn music plays]
- [Karin] Where the hell are you?
- I said I was going to a meeting.
[Karin] What the hell, did you forget?
You were gonna take John.
I'm taking Eddie
to the health care center.
[solemn music continues]
CALLING
Hey, man. Um, I wanted to tell you
I slightly changed plans.
Can we meet at 5:00 instead,
at the same place?
- Hey, bro.
- [man] Rami.
- [Rami] Sorry I was late, man.
- You're good.
- Okay, tell me. What you got?
- [man] Täby racecourse.
The thing with Täby
is that they keep all of their cash
in a shabby little metal locker
that they keep in a room
behind the main office
while they wait for the guards
to pick it up.
They come at midnight.
- [Rami] How many guards?
- Seven.
One is ours, of course.
Listen, bro, um
I can't go on a percentage.
I need at least five or six million.
[man] I know, bro.
I heard about the shrimp thing.
- From who?
- [man] The whole damn city.
[Rami] People caught on
that I was back on the market.
[Rami] Anner!
- All good?
- Hey bro.
[Rami] I don't know
how the hell word got around.
[man] We'll have guys outside
with two security vans waiting.
- [baby murmurs]
- And how do we get to Bergshamra?
[man] The place
is full of superfast horses.
[Rami] Horses?
[Rami] I don't know
why I didn't just call Michel right away.
Pride, maybe?
When I finally made the call,
he just said
[Michel] Come to the White Room at 1:30.
- Bro, I I just can't be
- [disconnected tone beeps]
[dance music plays]
[Michel] Rami!
Rami!
Rami!
Hey, dude! Here, here, here!
How are you? What's up?
- Should we talk here, or?
- Nah, come, come on.
Hey, Rami.
- Hi.
- [woman laughs]
- Hi. Nice to meet you. Hi.
- Pleasure.
- This is Alex. She's from Denmark.
- Okay.
[Alex] I'm originally from Copenhagen.
Have you ever been?
I actually have, yeah.
Beautiful, of course.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
[Michel] Alex actually moved here
'cause she's studying. She's a writer.
No. No, I'm just studying.
I'm not a writer.
[Michel] You are!
Stop it. I'm not a writer.
I went to this one school.
An an art high school.
Biskops-Arnö. Have you heard of it?
But that I'm not a writer.
[Michel] One of her stories was published.
What's it called?
- It was called The Noughties.
- Noughties.
In a literary journal.
But I'm not a writer. I have a job.
Yeah, yeah, I work counting money.
What did you say?
Um, I I count money. That's my job.
I count money
for a company that handles cash.
- Okay.
- [Alex] Yeah.
You're the first person I've met
that works counting cash.
It's pretty cool.
That's my real job. I'm not a writer,
Michel says that to be sweet.
The only thing is
The only sad thing is that it is very far.
- Really far, on the other side of town.
- Yeah, all the way in Västberga.
Yeah, there it is.
- Okay.
- [Alex] G4S, uh
I have a super long commute every morning,
but that's okay.
[Michel] I always tell her
that she should write about
the similarities between money and death.
For example, look, listen Mortuaries.
A mortuary is always
in the basement of the building.
I've never heard of one on the 56th floor.
Why? Nobody knows. That's just how it is.
Dead bodies in the basement.
and the same thing with money.
Money's always in the basement.
Bank vaults, for example.
But with us, it's the opposite.
I don't understand.
Isn't the vault in the basement?
Yeah, it is, but there's a lot more money
up in money counting.
That's on the sixth floor, the top floor.
- Mm-hmm, that's right.
- [Rami] Wow.
Yeah, exactly.
So it won't work. It's a beautiful theory,
but it does not work.
Yeah, I thought Money And Death
would be a great movie title. Honestly.
[dance music continues]
[Alex] Sorry, I'm a bit
- All good?
- Uh
Jessica's telling me that they won't
let her and Zaynab come in.
Go and get 'em then.
- Yeah, see ya.
- See you in a bit.
- Are you fucking insane?
- What's the matter?
What's the matter with you?
Are you kidding me right now?
We have a huge shot here.
How long have we dreamt of this?
Rami.
See you.
Rami!
[dance music continues]
[Rami] Excuse me.
[Michel] Hey, get in.
- [man 1] Taxi.
- [man 2] Taxi.
- [man 3] Looking for a taxi?
- I'll take the train, man.
What train? Just get in, bro.
Come on.
- [man 4] Taxi.
- [man 5] Taxi.
- [man 6] Taxi?
- I don't want to.
I'm just trying to drive you home.
What's the matter with you?
[Rami sighs]
[solemn music plays]
[Michel chuckles]
[solemn music continues]
- This is way too late for me.
- Mm.
Seriously, bro.
- I really gotta go home.
- [Michel] Yeah.
You can drop me off on Gullmarsplan,
I'll walk from there.
Yeah.
- [Rami] "Yeah."
- W-What?
- [Rami] Are you listening?
- I'm listening!
Relax, dude. I'm just gonna do one thing
on the way. You'll be home right after.
[solemn music continues]
- [Rami] Take your hand off the blinkers.
- Why? I'm gonna use the blinkers.
[Rami] No, you don't need to here.
I'm turning left though.
[Rami] You can only turn left
on this street.
But if I wanna use my blinkers,
then I will.
- [Rami] You don't actually need to though.
- Okay. Bro, I know how to drive.
I know.
- And you got a free lesson too.
- [Michel] Okay, thanks for the lesson.
[solemn music continues]
[Michel] I won't lie.
I've missed exactly this.
Standing here,
thinking, dreaming, planning.
- [Rami] Yeah? It's still impossible.
- [Michel] Hm.
Alex remembers exactly
what it looks like in there. Exactly.
What does she know about you?
Nothing.
[sirens wail]
Okay.
- Let's say we have an insider, right?
- Mm-hmm.
That still doesn't change that
the police station's on the same street.
How many meters is that?
- Three hundred?
- Two-hundred and fifty-five.
[chuckles]
They'd get us
before we'd even get out of the car.
Or let's say
that we do get out of the car.
- Hm.
- [Rami] And we go through the first door.
- Okay.
- [Rami] And then what?
There's still 15 to 20 locks left.
That's where we went wrong.
Listen, they always think that people
like you and me strike from below.
You know?
What do you mean?
Helicopter.
Look,
we land on the roof,
blow our way in.
We climb down.
We take the money, and fly out.
Easy.
Easy.
[Rami chuckles]
[electronic music plays]
- And the police?
- [Michel] Fuck the police.
They're standing down here with their
dicks in their hands, waving us goodbye.
[both laugh]
- [Rami] You hear how this sounds, right?
- Exactly. It sounds
[electronic music continues]
My brother.
- Hm?
- [Michel] Hm.
