Finally.

I'm on my way.

I'm on my way. Look.

Have a good look.

And you are going to help me.

To record things.

Good.

Almost.

Gate.

I think it's here.

Come on.

Action.

Hello?

Hello.

Martijn?

Aren't you going to let me in?

So this is where she lives.

Quite luxurious, for someone who has only recently moved out on her own.

- You're older now. And taller. - Switch it off.

- Impossible. - Why?

I want to record the way you react to me.

Well, this is it.

- You can switch it off now. - Can you help me with my backpack?

I've brought you something. Isn't that nice of me?

For your collection.

- Why are you here? - I had to see you. I really missed you.

- You might have called first. - You wouldn't have let me in, I think.

- You frightened me. - Why? Or do you believe your own lies?

Switch that thing off, dickhead.

What's wrong? I'm not doing anything.

Goddamn.

Jesus.

Hi.

- Who's that creep? - Creep?

- My brother. His name is Martijn. - Hello.

- I didn't know you had a brother. - I didn't, until recently.

- Recently? - I hadn't seen him for a long time.

- And why is that, do you suppose? - He lives in London.

That's right. But I'm here now, to make a film about her life.

Nice.

You're a very enthusiastic cameraman. Are you going to film everything?

Of course. Until I drop.

- What does Daantje think? - She really likes it.

- You've come at the right moment. - Why?

- Now you can film our show. - What show?

Daan, why haven't you told him about our show?

- Shut up, lngeborg. - Sis…

Now he can film everything.

- Beautiful. - Absolutely.

It's heavy. Let me help you.

Wait.

- How much is that projector? - 25 guilders.

- Does it work? - Alright then, make it 10.

Daantje?

Get up. Wake up.

Watch the alarm clock.

Watch.

Keep watching.

Keep watching.

Yes.

Exactly 20 years ago you became my sister. Congratulations.

Very good.

- Is this really necessary? - Traditions should be honored.

You're the boss today.

- What do you mean? - You know what I mean. Little sister.

No, I don't know what you mean.

- No? Think hard. - I really don't have the faintest.

Daantje.

- This is Bas. - Hi, I'm Bas.

- Hello, Bas. - And this is Ramon.

Are you the little brother?

- What brother? - The one with the camera.

Yeah, me too.

Little brother, come here.

Zoom in.

Zoom in.

Thanks.

Are you allowed to read that?

Why don't you come and film at my place?

For the show. I'll let you see what I'm working on.

Why would I do such a thing?

Aren't you interested in what I have to say?

- I am. if it concerns Daantje. - And if not?

- You can go to hell. - What?

You can go to hell. Just like that.

And you? Fucking bitch. Why do I hate you so much, Daantje?

Yuck.

Little girls become big girls.

- Stop or I'll kiss him. - Go ahead.

- Easy. - I'll do whatever I want, Daantje.

Are you okay?

Can't you watch that boyfriend of yours? This isn't a zoo.

- Who are you talking about? - That sleaze ball. Your boyfriend.

You know what, Martijn…

why don't you rewind your tape?

Why did you drink so much?

lngeborg, zoom in on this drunk's head.

- Did you get that? - Yes, I got it.

Martijn, I don't mind going to hell, you know.

- Ciao. - Bye.

Bye.

Great party.

It was a great party.

Nice guy.

Do you often have boyfriends like that?

He has a cute way of kissing.

Daantje here.

Oh, it's you.

Thank you, but that was yesterday.

My birthday was yesterday.

Well, it may be today where you are. Here, it was yesterday.

Great.

That's the way to snap at her.

But it doesn't really take a lot of guts.

Now that they're on the other side of the world.

Why do you keep filming me while I'm sleeping?

Because you're beautiful then.

What's so beautiful about a sleepyhead?

Everything.

What are you doing?

Homework. I have to design a pair of trousers…

but at the Rietveld Academy trousers are not supposed to have legs.

Explain how you make a design.

You start with a rough idea. Like this.

Then you do the model, which is this.

The legs are far too long, but models always have long legs.

- Okay? - Super. Thank you.

Wow. Great pair of trousers.

- What's wrong? - Beautiful.

- Don't you like it? - I like it very much. Really very good.

- But? - No buts. It's very good.

Don't you believe me?

Action.

You're our new model, Daan. Don't sway.

Very good.

Come on.

Keep looking.

What are you doing?

Do you want to play a game?

I know a nice little game. Watch a film.

I have lots of nice films. How's that?

Are you afraid?

Watch.

Keep watching. Don't look the other way.

- Dad. - You stole them?

Yes.

Isn't that great?

So you had them all along. Bastard.

Keep watching, Daan.

Baloo.

Such a cheerful girl.

Daan?

Let it out. It's okay.

Do you remember this?

That was the last time.

Now watch, Daantje. Watch.

Look, Daan. What is that?

- It's your birthday. Yes. Please watch. - Don't do this.

- You have to watch now! - Switch it off, I don't have to see this!

No, Martijn! Let go of me!

We can't go on like this. You have to get through it and watch those films.

Jesus, leave me alone for once.

I'm not leaving until you've watched them.

Nice, isn't he?

This one really sucks. And this one's even worse.

- Don't be ridiculous, I'm leaving! - Wait!

Daan?

We're off, Ramon. See you soon.

He'll take care of the house. Do you mind?

Well, mister. They say you have a very cute way of kissing.

- That's correct. - Really?

- Many people tell me that. - Good for you.

It's all a matter of feeling. Some people think it's a technical thing.

But it isn't. It's about feeling.

Passion. The pleasure that you feel.

And pleasure is something you cannot hold on to. It eludes you.

- And I have big lips. That helps. - Can you show me?

- How? By kissing your mouth? - No. By kissing in the air.

You wet your lips…

open your mouth, like this…

and stick out your tongue.

Her diary.

Wow.

- Wow. - Ramon, cut it out.

I think she fancies me. Let's see what she has to say about you.

- Give it to me. - No, Martijn.

It's personal. You know that.

- Is that your cheese? - Do you want some?

Hi, Daantje. How did your exams go? Did you do well?

It went great. They really liked my work.

Fabrics and techniques went well, too. It was perfect.
