[Rahim.]

What is that? [Hagen.]
Ugh, that's disgusting.

Shh, it's okay.
Don't be scared.
Shh.
It's okay.
[Paula.]
Shit! The cops! [Rahim.]
Lea, the cops! Come on! - Come on! - [Hagen.]
Get out! Out! [siren wailing.]
[Hagen.]
Zazie! [police officer.]
Stay calm.
[Zazie grunting.]
[police officer.]
Put your hands on the wall.
[police officer 2.]
Stop! [unintelligible screams.]
[police officer 2.]
Hey, stop! Stop! Police! Hey, come back, stop.
Come down.
[siren wailing.]
Wait, Paula! Paula, wait.
Rahim! Rahim! - We have to help my friends.
- It's too late, Rahim.
[breaths heavily.]
Are you coming? Yeah? Yeah? [shouting.]
Hands up.
Turn around.
Look ahead.
Look ahead.
Legs apart.
Go.
[cow moos.]
[police officer 3.]
A calf has escaped! [police officer 2.]
Look ahead.
Let's go.
- No! Hey! Hey! - Stop! - [gunshot.]
- No! - No! - [police officer 2.]
Keep moving! Let's go! Calm down.
To the car now.
Move! POLICE Guys, we did the right thing.
- And I swear - Haven't you given enough speeches today? [police officer.]
Sit down.
- Hey.
- [police officer.]
Herst, Lea.
[man clears throat.]
Sit down, please.
Hungry? Oh, right.
Sorry.
I shot a calf today.
What? What you'll say when your wife asks about your day.
No, my wife never asks me anything.
Besides, the calf was a threat.
It would have been slaughtered anyway.
That's why it was born.
Do you know what I don't understand? How you have more compassion for animals than people.
Did you think about the people who work there? As if there weren't any better jobs.
Well, sure, for a high school student with rich parents, born with a silver spoon in her mouth! Others, well they have to make do with what's around them, right? You know So-called "normal" people, right? They're busy with their own survival.
They're not interested in your vision of a meat-free um muesli-eating world.
Who says the slaughterhouse attack was my idea? Everyone I spoke to before.
Yeah, that's an advantage with you spoiled brats Too much to lose.
Plus, we got a phone call.
And it came in before you guys went in there, from someone who knew your plans.
There's a traitor among you.
[Kim.]
I'm not going with you.
[Kim's dad.]
No, girlie.
That's not what we agreed on.
- Keep your head low.
- [Kim.]
I wanna go to Mom's! - [Kim.]
I'm not going with you.
- [Kim's dad.]
You're coming home with me! - [Kim.]
I wanna go to Mom's! - [Kim's dad.]
No! This isn't the first time I've picked you up here.
In the car, now! Fuck you! [Lea's mother.]
This isn't like you at all.
Breaking in and going on a rampage.
That's not my daughter.
Don't exaggerate, Mom.
Stop provoking your mom right now.
You were arrested! [Lea's father.]
Your mom's right! Why did you do it? Something could have happened to you.
I thought you were dead.
[Lea's father.]
There's no reason for you to rebel against us.
It's not about that.
[Lea's father.]
So what's it about, then? We're always on your side.
- Almost always.
- Yeah, except this time.
- [Lea's mother.]
Who put you up to this? - Nobody talked me into it, Mom! Everyone else followed me.
I wanted to do something against those animal torturers.
Well, it worked out really well.
Congratulations.
As a reward, you're being charged with trespassing and damage to property.
[Lea's mother.]
Don't think you'll get away with this.
This will have consequences.
[sighs with exhaustion.]
A WAVE - Moo! - [laughter.]
[Hagen.]
Hey.
Hey, Lea.
Are you alright? It sucks that they caught you.
You'll have to do lots of community service.
Are you in trouble at home? Where is everyone? What do you think? All those dickless wussies bailed on us.
You should have listened to Tristan.
None of this shit would have happened.
Yeah? Should I, Zazie? [bell rings.]
[Rahim.]
Come on.
Is it true? That you were arrested? Your mom called me.
She wanted to know what's up with you, why you've changed so much recently.
What did you say? [Sophie.]
Nothing.
For one, I don't know the answer and, two, if you ask me, we're still friends.
Thanks.
Is your little revolutionary phase over now? Are you done with that Wave nonsense? - [teacher.]
Good morning.
- [all.]
Good morning, Mrs.
Wittich.
[principal.]
Right.
I'm sure you can all guess why I'm up here today.
Vandalism and violence will not be tolerated here.
The students responsible for the damage to the slaughterhouse will make things right by helping to pick everything up and cleaning.
On top of that, everyone involved will be given a warning, and any further incidents will lead to their immediate expulsion.
- That's all.
- Thank you.
THE WAVE THIS AFTERNOON.
OLD FACTORY.
[Mrs.
Wittich.]
It's good to stand up and fight for your beliefs.
But history has shown us that violence and aggression are not the right methods.
Would you please turn off your phones? I'm really in no mood for games today.
Tanja, you've prepared a presentation, yes? [Lea.]
I should have prepared for the slaughterhouse better.
It's my fault that everything was so uncoordinated, and I especially want to apologize to those of you who are in big trouble now.
But the campaign still could have been successful Had we gotten out in time and posted our videos online, we might have achieved something if there wasn't a traitor.
- [Rahim.]
What? - [all.]
What? [Lea.]
One of us.
- [Paula.]
Seriously? - [Lea.]
Yeah, exactly.
Someone who knew about our plan called the police.
- [girl.]
Who? - [Zazie.]
How do you know? That cop, Serner, told me, Zazie.
[scoffs.]
That doesn't mean anything.
Cops love that kind of mind fuck.
- They want us to turn on each other.
- [girl.]
Yeah, exactly.
[Rahim.]
Did the cop also say who the traitor was? No.
Who betrayed us? - [Lea.]
We have to work to find out - [Tristan.]
It was me.
- [Hagen.]
What? - [girl.]
Are you retarded? [Rahim.]
Why did you do it, Tristan? He was against the idea of others joining from the start.
No.
Listen to me.
You won't change a thing with a mob like that.
[Paula.]
What bullshit is that? Look around you! Half of them fucked off or are hammered! Dude, Tristan.
Chill! What's up with that? - I'm stone-cold sober! - Now you know who is really in the Wave.
Oh, yeah.
I do know that now.
Thanks so much, Tristan.
Let's have a vote.
- On what? - [Rahim.]
What? - Who's for kicking the traitor out? - [Paula.]
Good idea.
- Are you nuts? You can't kick Tristan out.
- Why not, Zazie? I thought we were a democracy.
Or is he above us all? [Hagen.]
Fuck.
Who's in favor? You can't do this.
Who's against? You're destroying everything! You're crazy.
- Fuck.
- [Zazie.]
Tristan! Tristan! We need to think about what we'll do now.
- Shit! - Hey, Tristan! Tristan! Hey, forget the princess.
I had the same idea.
I wanted to call the cops so they'd realize this isn't a kids' game.
But I didn't dare to, because of Lea.
I thought you liked her more.
That stuck-up bitch.
She's really Just be quiet.
Just be quiet, Zazie.
EXQUISITE APARTMENTS IN A PRIME LOCATION [Tristan breathes deeply.]
[child's laughter and voice.]

TODAY TRISTAN RELEASED SATURDAY, MARCH 16TH TRISTAN RELEASED, 10:30 TO 12:00 DELETE EVEN [Benny.]
How did you screw up? Why me? If a woman's unhappy, it's always a man's fault.
She doesn't trust me.
Shit.
Yeah.
Any tips? Cut out your heart, and serve it on a silver platter.
Do something big.
Like a big fat gesture of love.
- You've watched too many romantic movies.
- And you, too few.
Ready? For the last 18 months.
[hands slap.]
[buzzer sounds.]
[inmate.]
Don't come back! [inmate 2.]
Yeah, man! Show them all! [howls like a wolf.]
[howling.]

[boy.]
This is shit.
If only the cops hadn't come.
[boy 2.]
It stinks! [worker.]
Hey! You're here to clean, not chit-chat.
Nikki? - It's me.
- [Nikki.]
Tristan? Shit! Where have you been? I wanted to visit, but they said you'd been transferred.
Were you on a hunger strike or did you start a prison riot? Neither.
Wuss.
[shouting voices in background.]
I uh, I need you to do me a favor.
- Oh? - Are you in touch with the carpenter? Wait a sec.
[woman.]
Take the dogs I need two bookshelves.
[woman.]

Okay.
And he'll need a deposit.
- It will be expensive.
- I have the money.
Hmm okay.
Thanks for the favor.
[girl.]
It's already late.
[boy.]
What are we waiting for? Didn't more people want to come? I don't think so.
Paula, where is Rahim? No, he's not picking up his cell.
Didn't he want to come? I don't know.
I'm not his mother.
Lea The Wave was never my thing.
I was just here for Rahim.
Sorry.
[Hagen.]
Zazie! - Hey.
- Hey.
Why aren't you guys with Lea and her pseudo-club? I have no idea whose side I'm on, but I know one thing: I want to hear Tristan's apology.
And you? Why are you here? What Rahim said.
What did he say? Give him a break.
You know he's here for you.
[laughs.]
Really? I suggest we discuss what we want to achieve as a group.
Don't start yapping on about the stupid slaughterhouse again.
But There aren't enough for a revolution, but enough for an orgy.
I'm all about free love.
Fuck for Forest! [boy.]
I'm in! [girl.]
Why aren't we fighting against our real oppressors? The fucking teachers! - That's a good idea.
- Yeah.
Hey! I know where the principal parks her damn car.
Come on, guys.
That's pointless.
Who made you the boss, Lea? Who's in? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
[Rahim.]
Lovely here, isn't it? - It's here.
- [doorbell rings.]
Hey.
My parole officer has a deal with the landlord.
Every ex-con who moves in has to renovate the apartment.
Do you guys want a beer? Okay, guys.
I screwed up.
I thought it was right for the Wave.
But there's no Wave without you.
I need you.
You're the only friends I've got.
So I'm sorry.
What about Lea? Yeah, what about her? You've got to get her back.
[Tristan.]
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
What about you? How can I stay mad at you? I had the best night ever after the slaughterhouse.
Why? Paula's parents weren't home.
[laughs.]
Oh - Oh.
- [Rahim.]
Yeah.
[laughs.]
Zazie.
Are you still mad? I was never mad at you.
[Tristan.]
Thanks.
Hagen.
Apology accepted? I can't take it anymore! - Hagen! - Hagen! Look at this bullshit! Door frames without any tape! Paint over the light switches.
Old wallpaper that's not scraped off.
Whoever painted this wall should go right back to jail.

Where are the others? Out back.
I'll show you.

I'm not really sure yet.
I wanted to check out your group first.
Sure.
What does B.
N.

Sounds like the military.
[Henry.]
It's supposed to.

Yeah.
[Lasse.]

I want to play doubles against the SchrÃders.
They're always bragging about how unbeatable they are, and so on.
I know tennis isn't really high up your list at the moment, but We'll crush them, Dad.
Seriously? [Lea's dad laughs.]
Cool.
[doorbell rings.]
- Who could that be? - No idea.
- [Lea's dad.]
Morning.
- My name is Serner.
I'm a criminal investigator.
May I come in? [Lea's dad.]
Yeah.
Morning, Mrs.
Herst.
Hello, Lea.
Sorry to bother you so early.
Nice place.
What have you done, Lea? Nothing.
Please, please.
No need to get upset.
I have a son the same age, so I know what you're going through.
That's why I thought we could have an unofficial chat, parent to parent But I haven't done anything.
There was a fire at the slaughterhouse yesterday.
And we're assuming it's arson.
My God.
And you think it was me? It wasn't the cattle.
Do you have any evidence for this accusation? [Serner.]
Your daughter Our daughter was at home all evening and all night.
[Lea's mom.]
That's right.
Is that so? And you can both attest to that? Of course.
If this is going to be an interrogation, then I'll call my lawyer.
He might bring you a croissant.
- [Serner.]
That won't be necessary.
- Good.
I think we've cleared things up.
I'll leave you alone.
- I can let myself out.
- [Lea's dad.]
Okay.
Oops.
CAN WE TALK? CAN WE TALK? 5 MINUTES, PLEASE.
I'M OUTSIDE.
CAN WE TALK? 5 MINUTES, PLEASE.
I'M OUTSIDE.
I CAN'T RIGHT NOW! [sighs.]
[phone vibrates.]
You were right.
The Wave should be more important and bigger than any of us.
We can only do it together.
But we have to trust each other.
[Tristan breathes heavily.]
Making a Molotov cocktail gets you a minimum of six months in prison.
Use one, and the sentence goes up to three years.
Lea this is for you.
Are you insane? - What do you want? - Did you see the video? You're an idiot.
- What's this? - [Lea.]
Nothing.
I just want What? For me to forgive you? No, to be with you.
I want you to know that I'm sorry.
I'm not good at this stuff.
A buddy said I should cut my heart out and serve it on a silver platter.
So, I did You filmed yourself throwing a Molotov cocktail.
Exactly.
Now I'm in your hands.
Tristan! You haven't understood a single thing! Nothing! Not so loud! My parents aren't here.
I can yell as loudly as I want.
Okay.
I really wanted to stop the animal cruelty, but without violence.
I wanted to do it with you.
I want to do it with you, too.
And I want Shut the hell up, you idiot.
["Let in the Light" by Moderat plays.]
Now tell me: when? [laughs.]
When you stood next to me on the roof.
The very first day.
Oh, well, how long did it take with you? I'm still waiting.
Give me a couple of months.
[both laugh.]
[Lea.]
What does this mean? [Tristan.]
Ikigai.
And what does that mean? A reason for being.
Something that's worth living and dying for.
It's always about life and death with you.
It reminds me of my mom.
She couldn't stand the diplomatic receptions and the gated communities where we used to live.
She couldn't bear the fact that children were starving 100 meters from the golf course.
So, she started doing something about it.
She worked in refugee camps and for NGOs.
And I never understood why she'd keep going away when I was a kid.
But, every time she came back, she had this light in her eyes.
She finally understood why she was here.
What happened? She was shot five years ago in Sudan.
[Tristan exhales shakily.]
[Tristan.]
She died for what she believed in.
[Tristan sighs heavily.]
It's like a treasure map May I? A fox.
Kitsune.
A creature from Japanese folklore.
So clever and so fast that no one can catch him.
Is there a vixen by his side? Miss Kitsune? [car approaches.]
You'd better put something on.
Are you scared of my parents? [Tristan laughs.]
[Tristan.]
I was brought up well.
You can climb down from the balcony.
Hey! Still awake? How was the film? - [Lea's mom.]
Good, right? - Yeah, funny.
- [Lea's mom.]
How was your evening? - [Lea.]
Boring I was studying.
Aw I'll get some wine.
- Good night! - Good night.
[phone vibrates.]
Miss me already? - Aren't your feet freezing? - [Tristan.]
Why? You left me a souvenir.
[laughs.]
- Romantic, right? - [Lea laughs.]
Yeah.
Very.
Where are you? Looking at the stars.
[Lea.]
Oh, man.
Don't laugh.
I've been locked up for 18 months.
- Don't catch a cold.
- [Tristan laughs.]
Lea Yeah? Sleep well.
You too.
[woman.]
Come on.
Let's go.
Otherwise the deer will run away.
Stop.
And come.
[man.]
Show me the money.
Where's Nikki? [man.]
The money! On the ground.
Strip.
- Come on, man.
- [man.]
Take them off.
Keep going.
[Tristan.]
Kiss my ass! - [man.]
Everything! - [gun cocks.]
What is this shit? [man.]
I won't tell you again.
Nikki? [laughs.]
Sorry, Tristan.
The carpenter's become a little paranoid recently.
I had to make sure you were the same old you.
[Tristan.]
I'm not.
True.
I remember you being bigger.
Here.
It can't be traced.
I missed you! Did you hear about the slaughterhouse? Tristan Don't.
It was me.
If any of you ever doubt me again then take this to the cops.
No more solo stunts in the future, I swear.
Making a Molotov cocktail gets you a minimum of six months in prison.
What about the fake Wave from our school? Are those idiots with us? There's only one Wave and it has exactly five members.
Does anyone think differently? Good.
You all brought your masks? - Oh, shit! - Fuck.
I forgot.
I knew there was something.
Dammit.
We'll want to be better prepared in the future.
Sorry.
- Speaking from painful experience? - Kiss my ass.
Dream on, princess.
I'm not fond of you either but I'm glad you're here.
Ditto.
Okay, where did we leave off? ["We Are the Kings" by The Painted Pianos.]
Don't close your mouth It's truth, we bleed it If you have the strength Won't you stand Cry out and lift your hand and sing That's who you are.
Just us five.
We are the Wave.
To us! [all.]
Whoa! You can't tame my mouth I'm gonna stand and fight So raise up your arms now Give me the flag I'll run I won't stop until we've won

Yeah.
- Let's just burn the whole place down! - Stop talking shit, Zazie! [boys scream.]
[Rahim.]

What is that? [Hagen.]
Ugh, that's disgusting.

[police officer 2.]
Hey, stop! Stop! Police! Hey, come back, stop.
Come down.
[siren wailing.]
Wait, Paula! Paula, wait.

[breaths heavily.]
Are you coming? Yeah? Yeah? [shouting.]
Hands up.
Turn around.
Look ahead.
Look ahead.
Legs apart.

[cow moos.]
[police officer 3.]
A calf has escaped! [police officer 2.]
Look ahead.
Let's go.
- No! Hey! Hey! - Stop! - [gunshot.]
- No! - No! - [police officer 2.]
Keep moving! Let's go! Calm down.
To the car now.
Move! POLICE Guys, we did the right thing.
- And I swear - Haven't you given enough speeches today? [police officer.]
Sit down.
- Hey.
- [police officer.]
Herst, Lea.
[man clears throat.]
Sit down, please.
Hungry? Oh, right.
Sorry.
I shot a calf today.
What? What you'll say when your wife asks about your day.
No, my wife never asks me anything.
Besides, the calf was a threat.
It would have been slaughtered anyway.
That's why it was born.
Do you know what I don't understand? How you have more compassion for animals than people.
Did you think about the people who work there? As if there weren't any better jobs.
Well, sure, for a high school student with rich parents, born with a silver spoon in her mouth! Others, well they have to make do with what's around them, right? You know So-called "normal" people, right? They're busy with their own survival.
They're not interested in your vision of a meat-free um muesli-eating world.
Who says the slaughterhouse attack was my idea? Everyone I spoke to before.
Yeah, that's an advantage with you spoiled brats Too much to lose.
Plus, we got a phone call.
And it came in before you guys went in there, from someone who knew your plans.
There's a traitor among you.
[Kim.]
I'm not going with you.
[Kim's dad.]
No, girlie.
That's not what we agreed on.
- Keep your head low.
- [Kim.]
I wanna go to Mom's! - [Kim.]
I'm not going with you.
- [Kim's dad.]
You're coming home with me! - [Kim.]
I wanna go to Mom's! - [Kim's dad.]
No! This isn't the first time I've picked you up here.
In the car, now! Fuck you! [Lea's mother.]
This isn't like you at all.
Breaking in and going on a rampage.
That's not my daughter.
Don't exaggerate, Mom.
Stop provoking your mom right now.
You were arrested! [Lea's father.]
Your mom's right! Why did you do it? Something could have happened to you.
I thought you were dead.
[Lea's father.]
There's no reason for you to rebel against us.
It's not about that.
[Lea's father.]
So what's it about, then? We're always on your side.
- Almost always.
- Yeah, except this time.
- [Lea's mother.]
Who put you up to this? - Nobody talked me into it, Mom! Everyone else followed me.
I wanted to do something against those animal torturers.
Well, it worked out really well.
Congratulations.
As a reward, you're being charged with trespassing and damage to property.
[Lea's mother.]
Don't think you'll get away with this.
This will have consequences.
[sighs with exhaustion.]
A WAVE - Moo! - [laughter.]
[Hagen.]
Hey.
Hey, Lea.
Are you alright? It sucks that they caught you.
You'll have to do lots of community service.
Are you in trouble at home? Where is everyone? What do you think? All those dickless wussies bailed on us.
You should have listened to Tristan.
None of this shit would have happened.
Yeah? Should I, Zazie? [bell rings.]
[Rahim.]
Come on.
Is it true? That you were arrested? Your mom called me.
She wanted to know what's up with you, why you've changed so much recently.
What did you say? [Sophie.]
Nothing.
For one, I don't know the answer and, two, if you ask me, we're still friends.
Thanks.
Is your little revolutionary phase over now? Are you done with that Wave nonsense? - [teacher.]
Good morning.
- [all.]
Good morning, Mrs.
Wittich.
[principal.]
Right.
I'm sure you can all guess why I'm up here today.
Vandalism and violence will not be tolerated here.
The students responsible for the damage to the slaughterhouse will make things right by helping to pick everything up and cleaning.
On top of that, everyone involved will be given a warning, and any further incidents will lead to their immediate expulsion.
- That's all.
- Thank you.
THE WAVE THIS AFTERNOON.
OLD FACTORY.
[Mrs.
Wittich.]
It's good to stand up and fight for your beliefs.
But history has shown us that violence and aggression are not the right methods.
Would you please turn off your phones? I'm really in no mood for games today.
Tanja, you've prepared a presentation, yes? [Lea.]
I should have prepared for the slaughterhouse better.
It's my fault that everything was so uncoordinated, and I especially want to apologize to those of you who are in big trouble now.
But the campaign still could have been successful Had we gotten out in time and posted our videos online, we might have achieved something if there wasn't a traitor.
- [Rahim.]
What? - [all.]
What? [Lea.]
One of us.
- [Paula.]
Seriously? - [Lea.]
Yeah, exactly.
Someone who knew about our plan called the police.
- [girl.]
Who? - [Zazie.]
How do you know? That cop, Serner, told me, Zazie.
[scoffs.]
That doesn't mean anything.
Cops love that kind of mind fuck.
- They want us to turn on each other.
- [girl.]
Yeah, exactly.
[Rahim.]
Did the cop also say who the traitor was? No.
Who betrayed us? - [Lea.]
We have to work to find out - [Tristan.]
It was me.
- [Hagen.]
What? - [girl.]
Are you retarded? [Rahim.]
Why did you do it, Tristan? He was against the idea of others joining from the start.
No.
Listen to me.
You won't change a thing with a mob like that.
[Paula.]
What bullshit is that? Look around you! Half of them fucked off or are hammered! Dude, Tristan.
Chill! What's up with that? - I'm stone-cold sober! - Now you know who is really in the Wave.
Oh, yeah.
I do know that now.
Thanks so much, Tristan.
Let's have a vote.
- On what? - [Rahim.]
What? - Who's for kicking the traitor out? - [Paula.]
Good idea.
- Are you nuts? You can't kick Tristan out.
- Why not, Zazie? I thought we were a democracy.
Or is he above us all? [Hagen.]
Fuck.
Who's in favor? You can't do this.
Who's against? You're destroying everything! You're crazy.
- Fuck.
- [Zazie.]
Tristan! Tristan! We need to think about what we'll do now.
- Shit! - Hey, Tristan! Tristan! Hey, forget the princess.
I had the same idea.
I wanted to call the cops so they'd realize this isn't a kids' game.
But I didn't dare to, because of Lea.
I thought you liked her more.
That stuck-up bitch.
She's really Just be quiet.
Just be quiet, Zazie.
EXQUISITE APARTMENTS IN A PRIME LOCATION [Tristan breathes deeply.]

- [Tristan.]
Mama! - Let me go.
[Tristan.]

Pack your stuff.

TODAY TRISTAN RELEASED SATURDAY, MARCH 16TH TRISTAN RELEASED, 10:30 TO 12:00 DELETE EVEN [Benny.]
How did you screw up? Why me? If a woman's unhappy, it's always a man's fault.
She doesn't trust me.
Shit.
Yeah.
Any tips? Cut out your heart, and serve it on a silver platter.
Do something big.
Like a big fat gesture of love.
- You've watched too many romantic movies.
- And you, too few.
Ready? For the last 18 months.
[hands slap.]
[buzzer sounds.]
[inmate.]
Don't come back! [inmate 2.]
Yeah, man! Show them all! [howls like a wolf.]
[howling.]

[boy.]
This is shit.
If only the cops hadn't come.
[boy 2.]
It stinks! [worker.]
Hey! You're here to clean, not chit-chat.
Nikki? - It's me.
- [Nikki.]
Tristan? Shit! Where have you been? I wanted to visit, but they said you'd been transferred.
Were you on a hunger strike or did you start a prison riot? Neither.
Wuss.
[shouting voices in background.]
I uh, I need you to do me a favor.
- Oh? - Are you in touch with the carpenter? Wait a sec.
[woman.]
Take the dogs I need two bookshelves.
[woman.]
stink and He'll have to come to yours to take measurements.
Okay.
And he'll need a deposit.
- It will be expensive.
- I have the money.
Hmm okay.
Thanks for the favor.
[girl.]
It's already late.
[boy.]
What are we waiting for? Didn't more people want to come? I don't think so.
Paula, where is Rahim? No, he's not picking up his cell.
Didn't he want to come? I don't know.
I'm not his mother.
Lea The Wave was never my thing.
I was just here for Rahim.
Sorry.
[Hagen.]
Zazie! - Hey.
- Hey.
Why aren't you guys with Lea and her pseudo-club? I have no idea whose side I'm on, but I know one thing: I want to hear Tristan's apology.
And you? Why are you here? What Rahim said.
What did he say? Give him a break.
You know he's here for you.
[laughs.]
Really? I suggest we discuss what we want to achieve as a group.
Don't start yapping on about the stupid slaughterhouse again.
But There aren't enough for a revolution, but enough for an orgy.
I'm all about free love.
Fuck for Forest! [boy.]
I'm in! [girl.]
Why aren't we fighting against our real oppressors? The fucking teachers! - That's a good idea.
- Yeah.
Hey! I know where the principal parks her damn car.
Come on, guys.
That's pointless.
Who made you the boss, Lea? Who's in? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
[Rahim.]
Lovely here, isn't it? - It's here.
- [doorbell rings.]
Hey.
My parole officer has a deal with the landlord.
Every ex-con who moves in has to renovate the apartment.
Do you guys want a beer? Okay, guys.
I screwed up.
I thought it was right for the Wave.
But there's no Wave without you.
I need you.
You're the only friends I've got.
So I'm sorry.
What about Lea? Yeah, what about her? You've got to get her back.
[Tristan.]
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
What about you? How can I stay mad at you? I had the best night ever after the slaughterhouse.
Why? Paula's parents weren't home.
[laughs.]
Oh - Oh.
- [Rahim.]
Yeah.
[laughs.]
Zazie.
Are you still mad? I was never mad at you.
[Tristan.]
Thanks.
Hagen.
Apology accepted? I can't take it anymore! - Hagen! - Hagen! Look at this bullshit! Door frames without any tape! Paint over the light switches.
Old wallpaper that's not scraped off.
Whoever painted this wall should go right back to jail.

I think it's creepy, too.
You don't go to Scholl High School? No, I go to Schopenhauer Middle School.
Where are the others? Out back.
I'll show you.
- Okay.
- [Henry.]
This way.
It's cool that you want to join.
It's a bit lame with just dudes.
I'm not really sure yet.
I wanted to check out your group first.
Sure.
What does B.
N.
stand for? Brigade North.
Sounds like the military.
[Henry.]
It's supposed to.
BRIGADE NORTH We're planning on getting real weapons, and shooting all the Jews and dirty Arabs in our town in the back of the head! - [Lasse.]
What do we have here? - [Marvin.]
Hello, Lea.

Get her.
- [Marvin.]
Get her! - Bring her up here.

Hello, hello.

What shall we do with you? What should we do? [neo-Nazi.]
Shave her head! - Shave her! - [Marvin.]
Yes, let's shave her.
[all.]
Shave her! No, no, turn around.
That's it! That's it.
[Lasse.]
I have a better idea.
Hey! - Let's make a good German girl out of her! - [all.]
Yeah.
[Lasse.]
Get your phones out.
Do we have a spray can? Spray what I tell you onto the wall in big letters.
[laughter.]
- [neo-Nazi 2.]
Yeah, do it.

Come on, do it.
[Lasse.]

Shit! - Fuck! - Get her! [Marvin.]
Fuck! You're such a bunch of fucking morons, man! [Lasse.]
Shit! We'll get you! [phone alarm beeping.]
I want to play doubles against the SchrÃders.
They're always bragging about how unbeatable they are, and so on.
I know tennis isn't really high up your list at the moment, but We'll crush them, Dad.
Seriously? [Lea's dad laughs.]
Cool.
[doorbell rings.]
- Who could that be? - No idea.
- [Lea's dad.]
Morning.
- My name is Serner.
I'm a criminal investigator.
May I come in? [Lea's dad.]
Yeah.
Morning, Mrs.
Herst.
Hello, Lea.
Sorry to bother you so early.
Nice place.
What have you done, Lea? Nothing.
Please, please.
No need to get upset.
I have a son the same age, so I know what you're going through.
That's why I thought we could have an unofficial chat, parent to parent But I haven't done anything.
There was a fire at the slaughterhouse yesterday.
And we're assuming it's arson.
My God.
And you think it was me? It wasn't the cattle.
Do you have any evidence for this accusation? [Serner.]
Your daughter Our daughter was at home all evening and all night.
[Lea's mom.]
That's right.
Is that so? And you can both attest to that? Of course.
If this is going to be an interrogation, then I'll call my lawyer.
He might bring you a croissant.
- [Serner.]
That won't be necessary.
- Good.
I think we've cleared things up.
I'll leave you alone.
- I can let myself out.
- [Lea's dad.]
Okay.
Oops.
CAN WE TALK? CAN WE TALK? 5 MINUTES, PLEASE.
I'M OUTSIDE.
CAN WE TALK? 5 MINUTES, PLEASE.
I'M OUTSIDE.
I CAN'T RIGHT NOW! [sighs.]
[phone vibrates.]
You were right.
The Wave should be more important and bigger than any of us.
We can only do it together.
But we have to trust each other.
[Tristan breathes heavily.]
Making a Molotov cocktail gets you a minimum of six months in prison.
Use one, and the sentence goes up to three years.
Lea this is for you.
Are you insane? - What do you want? - Did you see the video? You're an idiot.
- What's this? - [Lea.]
Nothing.
I just want What? For me to forgive you? No, to be with you.
I want you to know that I'm sorry.
I'm not good at this stuff.
A buddy said I should cut my heart out and serve it on a silver platter.
So, I did You filmed yourself throwing a Molotov cocktail.
Exactly.
Now I'm in your hands.
Tristan! You haven't understood a single thing! Nothing! Not so loud! My parents aren't here.
I can yell as loudly as I want.
Okay.
I really wanted to stop the animal cruelty, but without violence.
I wanted to do it with you.
I want to do it with you, too.
And I want Shut the hell up, you idiot.
["Let in the Light" by Moderat plays.]
Now tell me: when? [laughs.]
When you stood next to me on the roof.
The very first day.
Oh, well, how long did it take with you? I'm still waiting.
Give me a couple of months.
[both laugh.]
[Lea.]
What does this mean? [Tristan.]
Ikigai.
And what does that mean? A reason for being.
Something that's worth living and dying for.
It's always about life and death with you.
It reminds me of my mom.
She couldn't stand the diplomatic receptions and the gated communities where we used to live.
She couldn't bear the fact that children were starving 100 meters from the golf course.
So, she started doing something about it.
She worked in refugee camps and for NGOs.
And I never understood why she'd keep going away when I was a kid.
But, every time she came back, she had this light in her eyes.
She finally understood why she was here.
What happened? She was shot five years ago in Sudan.
[Tristan exhales shakily.]
[Tristan.]
She died for what she believed in.
[Tristan sighs heavily.]
It's like a treasure map May I? A fox.
Kitsune.
A creature from Japanese folklore.
So clever and so fast that no one can catch him.
Is there a vixen by his side? Miss Kitsune? [car approaches.]
You'd better put something on.
Are you scared of my parents? [Tristan laughs.]
[Tristan.]
I was brought up well.
You can climb down from the balcony.
Hey! Still awake? How was the film? - [Lea's mom.]
Good, right? - Yeah, funny.
- [Lea's mom.]
How was your evening? - [Lea.]
Boring I was studying.
Aw I'll get some wine.
- Good night! - Good night.
[phone vibrates.]
Miss me already? - Aren't your feet freezing? - [Tristan.]
Why? You left me a souvenir.
[laughs.]
- Romantic, right? - [Lea laughs.]
Yeah.
Very.
Where are you? Looking at the stars.
[Lea.]
Oh, man.
Don't laugh.
I've been locked up for 18 months.
- Don't catch a cold.
- [Tristan laughs.]
Lea Yeah? Sleep well.
You too.
[woman.]
Come on.
Let's go.
Otherwise the deer will run away.
Stop.
And come.
[man.]
Show me the money.
Where's Nikki? [man.]
The money! On the ground.
Strip.
- Come on, man.
- [man.]
Take them off.
Keep going.
[Tristan.]
Kiss my ass! - [man.]
Everything! - [gun cocks.]
What is this shit? [man.]
I won't tell you again.
Nikki? [laughs.]
Sorry, Tristan.
The carpenter's become a little paranoid recently.
I had to make sure you were the same old you.
[Tristan.]
I'm not.
True.
I remember you being bigger.
Here.
It can't be traced.
I missed you! Did you hear about the slaughterhouse? Tristan Don't.
It was me.
If any of you ever doubt me again then take this to the cops.
No more solo stunts in the future, I swear.
Making a Molotov cocktail gets you a minimum of six months in prison.
What about the fake Wave from our school? Are those idiots with us? There's only one Wave and it has exactly five members.
Does anyone think differently? Good.
You all brought your masks? - Oh, shit! - Fuck.
I forgot.
I knew there was something.
Dammit.
We'll want to be better prepared in the future.
Sorry.
- Speaking from painful experience? - Kiss my ass.
Dream on, princess.
I'm not fond of you either but I'm glad you're here.
Ditto.
Okay, where did we leave off? ["We Are the Kings" by The Painted Pianos.]
Don't close your mouth It's truth, we bleed it If you have the strength Won't you stand Cry out and lift your hand and sing That's who you are.
Just us five.
We are the Wave.
To us! [all.]
Whoa! You can't tame my mouth I'm gonna stand and fight So raise up your arms now Give me the flag I'll run I won't stop until we've won
