Du er ikke alene (You are not alone) (1978)

'YOU ARE NOT ALONE'
Are you starting continuation
school tomorrow?
No, we start next week.
Why are you going there, anyway?
Because I don't feel like
going to public school anymore.
.' When you leave,
don't turn around,.'
.' there is no way back,
where you came from..'
.' All their jokes,
you know them by heart,.'
.' you know all their mistrusts,.'
.' and you who
don't know anything,
but yet have been hurt..'
.' You simply know everything,
you've paid a high price..'
.' lf there is a truth,
written in black and white,.'
.' it's that nothing is yours..'
.' You are not alone,
someone follows you..'
.' And the en tire time,
he is like you....'
.' like you..'
Continuation school.
No, it's not the stock office.
It's the continuation school.
Yeah, that's all right.
No, not by bike.
- -Yeah, you're smarter than that.
What do I know?
- -We are going to Fyn.
We have some friends
there with a small farm.
So that's where you're going.
This is the teacher's lounge. Oh.
Feel free to come in.
May I present to
you our teachers.. .
Mr. Karstensen
and Ms. Mortensen.
We shouldn't disturb them.
They are obviously having
professional discussions.
Let's continue.
Aw, shit.
No, not again.
Michael, what are you are doing?
Boyish tricks.
You! You know that's not allowed!
This is where our boys live.
It is a room with two
beds, very comfortable.. .
This is our little gym.
Listen!
Listen up.. .
Some weekend permission
slips are still missing.
Remember that the last deadline
is tomorrow afternoon.
And I will announce
that all classes.. .
are cancelled tomorrow
after twelve...
and for the rest of the day...
... due to a teachers' conference.
I knew you would
all be disappointed.
And then there is an issue
that I have to raise with you.
Today the school had visitors,
people from the municipality,
who came to get an
impression of our school,
and possibly give us a
grant for a gymnasium.
When the school has guests, it
means that one, with great pride,
should be able to
show off the school.
I thought that I
could do that today.
Until we came into your rooms.
Then something embarrassing
and disgraceful happened.
It concerns decoration
in certain rooms.. .
one room in any case.
The decoration would have
been better suited.. .
in a brothel than at a continuation
school with our reputation.
It's not funny, Bo!
I demand that the filth be
taken down immediately.
Mr. Justes is sure to agree
with me that we should.. .
lock the television room
tonight, and go quietly to bed.
Lights out by 10.
Enjoy!
Hey, come here and help!
Stop it!
Tickle him!
Stop it, for Christ's sake!
You guys are so stupid.
That thing will
totally fry your brain.
Hey, can you perhaps
get us some hash?
Lasse, why don't you show us
one of your kinky movies?
Yeah, let's watch
one of your Pornos!
You're crazy; imagine if
'Papa Jussy' stepped in here!
He would totally flip out!
Who the hell is scared of
'Papa Jussy'? That dumb shit.
We'll see.. .
We'll take one of the
Playboy magazines.. .
and stick it up his ass!
Hey! Try to control yourselves.
We actually have a problem
we have to take care of.
Girls?
- -No, not girls.
It concerns the forest picnic.
You have yours picked out?
It's about some wine.
How do we get a hold of some?
You guys and your
god-damned wine!
I said that we should
get some vodka!
You know, we've had
this discussion, Ole!
And it's been resolved.
Just don't come along then!
Kim can borrow some
bottles from his dad.
Does that mean he'll he there?
This isn't kindergarten!
Kim is okay.
It's not his fault he
has an old ass for a dad.
Ewe, you pig!
Kim, what are you doing?
You turned off the
lights in the kitchen?
Mm-hmm.
May I, please?
- -Yes.
Were those pictures hanging
in Lars and Ole's room?
Yes, of course it was
Lars and Ole's room.
There's always trouble with them.
It's no wonder Ole is the way
he is--with those parents.
His mother was on welfare
and his dad drinks.
You should he thankful that
you have a good home, my boy.
Ole is really nice.
Listen up, Kim, I don't think
you should hang around.. .
the kids in the school
as much as you do.
What about playing more with
the kids from your own school?
They are so fucking boring.
Kim, I will not
permit such language!
It does not sound nice, Kim.
Can I see the movie on TV tonight?
Have you done your homework?
- -Yes.
I'll hear no more about movies
that are unsuitable for children.
Good night, Kim.
Do you need to be so strict?
Once in a while, he should be
allowed to stay up a little late.
I will not discuss it. The movie
is not suitable for children.
He is too young, Anna.
When Karen and Niels were his
age, times were different.
I hope that times will
never be different.. .
when it comes to consistency
in his upbringing.
Kim should not suffer because
he is a late addition.
Hey, open the door, jerk!
Hey, hey, hey, what's
going on here?
There should be silence
by 10, you know that.
Now hurry into your beds.
And no running in the
halls, you know that too.
Hurry, turn off the lights.
Hurry up.
We are turning them off.
Well, it's nice to see we've
taken down the pictures.. .
Turning off.
Good night.
Off to sleep now.
Good night.
Now the interesting part comes!
Now old are you, young man?
Thirteen.
Well, then it is illegal to
do anything of the sort.
You have to promise me that
you will not do something.. .
you will later regret.
She took off her shirt.
Her breasts were
heavy and swaying,
the minute she moved.
The other girls snickered.
The chubby one pulled down
the zipper of her shorts.
She took off her shorts and
stood naked in front of him.
She had rough brown
hair between her legs.
They were curly.
The excitement charged
through his body.
He felt burning hot in his loins.
His cock began to get hard and.. .
Lars, it's time to get out of bed.
Come on. Up now.
- -Yeah, yeah.
Hurry up a little.
You have some toilet paper?
Mom, I'm going to the store!
Hi, Bo.
- -Hi.
Good morning, Karsten.
You guys are so stupid!
Oh, I see you were jacking
off last night, huh?
.' All of God's birds
both big and small..'
.' They fly from the
nest and safety..'
.' We praise our Lord,
so well as we can..'
.'In song, in life and as far as
the eternal light glows..'
.' Now further on
the church grounds....'
.' and the sun comes shining in..'
.' We sing good morning,
we sing hello,.'
.' we sing our father,
thank God for all we have....'
Bo, please pay attention.
Democracy means that the
majority determines.. .
the policy that would become law.
The party or parties that
get the most votes.. .
in the present and closest election,
meaning the party or parties.. .
that have received
the biggest mandate.
Man-date.
... determines which politics
the country will run under.
The method is called a
cabinet responsibility.
'She has some nice tits.'
- -'Who?'
Cab-i-net Res-pon-si-bi-li-ty
Yes, Aske.
How can one be assured that
the needs of the people.. .
are reflected in the laws?
Shit, he sounds like
a real professor.
It is all of us, the Danish people,
those of us that have voting
rights that elect those.. .
who sit in the parliament.
Who else?
Who has voting rights?
Anyone above the age of 20.
Yeah, but what about all
of us who are under 20?
Are we not also 'the people'?
Well, yes, then the people's
representatives, if you will.
The people who only
some of us have chosen.
The legal voting age is 20 and
there are no motions to change it.
'The girl who is in love with me.'
Young people are, for the most
part, politically immature.. .
and that is where you
are a perfect example.
What do you think our trade
partners in Brussels.. .
would say if we had both a
retired and children's party?
That doesn't matter.
It is much more important that
the young and the old are heard,
otherwise we would
just be stepped on.
Yes, Bo.
- -Grundtvig.
Yes, what about Grundtvig?
He was a revolutionary.
Yes, he probably was, but he
was definitely not a communist.
He was a Christian
person. Furthermore.. .
What the hell are you up to?
Revolution?
Shut up, you two!
Yes, that is exact change.
Could you please take
these onions.. .
and deliver them to the school?
Yes.
Hi.
- -Hi, what do you want?
A pack of cigarettes.
Just one minute.
Yes, supermarket.
Yes, hi, what can I.. .
Watch out.
- -Yeah, watch it, punk.
Get out of here.
By the way, it looked
totally awesome when.. .
Mogens stole the field from Olsen.
Yeah, it was a really cool game.
Did you get some
candy? I only got one.
Yeah, I got two or three
pieces. You want some?
Hey, by the way, are you going
on the weekend trip with Britta?
No, I fuckin' don't feel like it.
You aren't even allowed to make
tracks when you play Indians.
I'm going on a forest picnic with
the big kids. That will be awesome!
Look, here come the others.
- -Yeah.
Hi, Bo!
Hi.
- -Hi.
Have you been to school?
Did you think I'd been at a brothel?
You want a lift?
- -Yes, please.
So sit up here.
Stop.
Help!
Aw.. .
Shit bike!
Owe, my leg.
Shit.
Does it hurt a lot?
Oh.
Kim?
- -Yeah.
Can you keep a secret?
- -Of course.
Come on!
Is it yours?
- -Yeah.
I built it so that I can have
some privacy from time to time.
Come on.
This is the emergency exit.
- -Emergency exit?
Yeah, you never know
what can happen.
Isn't it beautiful?
- -Yup, it is beautiful here.
Sure is.
It's about time!
- -Bring over the goods.
What's in the bag, Ole?
Relax!
Don't wrinkle it
and my Yankee bar.
Here.
Here's yours.
So you're going to be
yanking the old skin tonight.
Just make sure it doesn't
get into the mashed potatoes.
Hey, I know you go into the
forest, and play with yourself.. .
and get all blue in the head.
We'll go out and
watch you tonight.
Here, take that, you creep!
Oh, calm down.
Ole!
Stop!
You pig.
Shit, Ole.
- -That's enough.
You won't even remember
your name for weeks.
Ole, stop.
They can see you
from the window.
Ole, stop!
Get off him!
What did you say?
You can come out to
the forest tonight.. .
and get beat up some more!
You little pussy.
Here are the onions.
- -Thank you.
Miss, can I please have a
whisky with whipped cream.. .
served with a straw, with some
foolin' around on the side?
Catch this.
Bo! Over here!
Stop it.
Here, Aske.
Hey!
What the hell is this?
What the hell is going on here?
What do you think
this is, a sex club?
Get out of the kitchen.
What do you think the
headmaster would say.. .
if he saw you guys all
over each other like that?
It wouldn't be very likely
if we didn't fool around.
Can we please work in peace?
Regarding the pictures
in Lars and Ole's room,
that incident is over, but
I wanted to discuss it.. .
because I don't want to have
another situation like last year.. .
when we unfortunately had to
dismiss three students.. .
because they could not maintain
their self-discipline,
and had girls and fooling
around on their brains.
The gymnasium.
- -Yes, the gymnasium.
You all know that we have had a
visit from the municipality.. .
and today I have heard we have
been awarded the grant.. .
for the proposed gymnasium.
I still think that the money
would be better used to build.. .
a new dorm to accommodate
girls here at the school.
In my opinion, sports are
healthy for boys' development.
It strengthens their
feeling of responsibility.
I must once again point out that
the continuation schools.. .
that admit both girls and
boys have only had trouble.
Can we please be careful not to...
pigeon-hole all
continuation schools...
based on one fight.
I know several schools that
function perfectly well,
where there are
absolutely no prob.. .
Sorry, but when
does the bank open?
You have to wait a little bit.
We are almost done.
Please close the door.
Okay.. .
What is the next
item on the agenda?
It is regarding the
graduation party.
Yeah.. .
Andersen, you are on watch.
Would you please?
Okay.. .
The celebration, I must admit
that I am a bit concerned.. .
about this year's dramatization
of the ten commandments.
The kids' version promises
to be entertaining?
Don't worry, it will certainly
be entertaining and festive!
Come down here, Lars.
I don't like that it's so dark.
What if someone
comes down here?
No one will. Come here.
No, you have to open your
mouth when you kiss.
Not like that. Like this.
No! Someone's coming.
No one's coming down here.
You know that.
Lie down here.
One minute.
What is it? Can't you see
that I'm on the phone?
I have a book for you.
- -Just put it there.
Yes, excuse me, where were we?
Be careful not to rush
it here at the end.
That was good, Kim.
I have another one that is
a bit more difficult.. .
that we can try.
Hmm... where did I put it?
It's here somewhere.. .
What are you doing here?
I had to deliver a song... I
mean, a book to your husband.
Then give it to me.
He is talking on the telephone.
Goodbye, Bo.
Man, it shoots really well.
Can I paint you?
- -Okay.
Sit down then.
Like this and like this.
It tickles.
Indians paint themselves
in the Spring,
and then they do a war dance.
Where did you get that from?
It's from a book that we read
in class, called 'Long Spear.'
Turn around so I
can paint your back.
Yeah.
Bo?
- -Yeah.
What do you think my dad
means when he says.. .
'mothers of a doubtful reputation'?
It means that they earn money
by going to bed with men.
Oh.
Look at what I found in the forest.
What kind of bird is it from?
A pheasant.
I found it at a raven ditch.
Should we go there
together some day?
Sure, when?
Early in the morning, so
we can see the baby birds.
I'll never get
permission from my dad.
No problem. Just come out
real early in the morning.
I told them we'd be
back around 10 o'clock.
Hi, Kim.
- -Hi.
Oh yeah, it's bath day today.
I'm going to take a shower.
I'll go with you.
Don't you ever wash your penis?
Of course.
No, I mean also under the foreskin.
Do you have to?
Yes, otherwise we'll stink.
Will you soap my back?
- -Yeah.
Do you have sex
education in school?
What do you learn there?
You learn how to
avoid having kids.
I know about that!
You also learn how to masturbate.
Masturbate?
Jack off.
- -Oh, that.
You can do it many different ways.
What else do you guys learn?
You also learn that
sex is wonderful.
Can you hand me the shampoo?
Here.
- -Thanks.
What the hell?
Woo! Sex is wonderful!
Hey, you two. Don't go so far out.
Come back in!
Jesper, you're bleeding.
It's the artery.
Stand here, I'm coming out to you.
Help hold it there.
Bo, run back to the
school and get help.
He's hurt?
Hurry, hurry.
Jesper, weren't you
scared? Even a little bit?
Yeah, a little.
- -There was so much blood.
It squirted out just like a waterfall.
That actually wasn't
what hurt the most.
I got a shot right in my ass.
That was worse.
That's typical--every time
something exciting happens.
I forget my camera.
Once, I had hit my leg with a big
axe and I didn't realize it.. .
until my entire boot
was filled with blood.
This long.
In the newspaper a while back.
I read about a guy who
was riding a motorcycle,
behind a truck with steel plates.
One of the plates shifted and
he was too close to it.. .
and it hacked his head off and
the blood just squirted like this.
When he was hit, his nerves
were stuck and his hands.. .
held onto the accelerator
and the motorcycle.. .
drove up next to the truck and
the truck driver sees him.. .
and was like this, and passed out
and smashed the entire truck.. .
into a tree and killed himself.
Give me my toothpaste.
It's mine.
Take your hands off.
Why are you stealing
my toothpaste?
Stop, for Christ's sake.
- -What's going on?
He stole my toothpaste, that fag!
I wouldn't use your nasty,
spermed-up toothpaste.
Go home and suck
your father's dick!
That's it! Go.
Bo, are you going to shower?
- -No.
Then would you please go
turn off the lights.. .
in the showers down by the gym?
Sure, I'll just brush my teeth first.
- -That's fine.
What are you reading?
'The Forgotten Spring,'
by Hans Scherfig.
You seem a little down.
Is there something
you are sad about?
My parents, once in a while.
I miss my mom and dad.
I want to go home.. .
and talk to them a bit and see
how they are doing and stuff.
It's almost summer vacation.
Are you going on summer
vacation with your parents?
Yes.
We're going to
Bornholm on a tour.
That sounds exciting.
I know it's stupid of me to cry.
But it helps when I
miss them so much.
There, there, Aske. It will be okay.
We'll get through it.
- -We?
You can get through it!
You can leave here
and go home to...
your family when
you're not on duty.
The rest of us have to stay here,
never having a private life.
We are always pretending,
playing a role!
Turn off the lights when
you guys leave, okay?
As you all know, when the
first king, 'Gorm the Old'.. .
ruled over Denmark,... anyone
know what his wife's name was?
Yes.
- -Daneho.
Daneho. They had two
sons, Knud and Harald.
Anyone know where they lived?
- -Not on Old King's Road.
They lived in Jutland.
Coffee is not an
intoxicating substance.
Yes, it actually is, but it's not...
something that people
usually think of.
Coffee contains something
called caffeine.. .
and caffeine is stimulating stuff.
For example, if you drank 100
cups of coffee in one sitting,
there's a possibility that you
could actually die from it.
What do you want to say, Bo?
Is that why I always get
a bit weird and sweaty.. .
when I drink too much coffee?
Yes, that is exactly how people get
when they drink too much coffee.
Good, well, if we now take
hash and separate that.. .
from all the other substances
that we have spoken about,
can you become dependent
on hash the same way
as one can become
dependent on alcohol?
No.
Alcohol is much more
dangerous than hash!
Does any one else have
a different opinion?
Physically, you are
not dependent on it.
But I think I've read
that psychologically,
one can become dependent on it
like one does with cigarettes.
What a bunch of crap!
You can't be dependent on it the
same way that you are on opium.
I think you guys should
hear part of a tape.. .
that I recorded from the radio.
There was an interview
last week with...
a 14-year-old boy
from Copenhagen...
and it is very relevant to what
we have been talking about.
I need it for food.
- -Yeah.
I live in a group home
there... and we need it.
I use it for food.
I use mostly hash.
Why do you smoke hash?
Because I like smoking hash.
I feel like shit if I don't
have hash for a whole day.
Do you smoke hash everyday?
Yes, otherwise I can't fucking live.
I feel good if I have hash.
Are you addicted to hash?
- -Yeah, I can't do without it.
I think I would.. .
I would scream.
There are many people who
know me who say that too.
Because I live with various others.
Yeah.
That's stupid that Petersen
gave me detention today.
It's not my fault that there are a
pair of shorts lying in the hallway.
He is always so damn mad.
He has a brain filled with dirt.
And when you asked if
it was time for Sex Ed,
that was really a good line.
It could be that he's never
screwed his wife or jacked off.
Have you ever seen
one with hair on it?
Yup, Bo has a huge one
with lots of hair on it.
I'll bet he can screw
really well with that dick.
Can you shoot when you jack off?
Of course.
.' Rock, it comes as a shock..'
.' Rock, what does it lead to ?.'
.' Self broadcast..'
.' Look..'
.' Look..'
Okay, okay, let's stop here.
You guys too.
Come over here with the rest of us.
Let's sit down and talk it through.
Let us start by hearing
from you, Jesper.
How did it make you feel?
I felt as if I was being
shunned and kept outside.
Did you feel like you
were being bullied?
Yes, of course I did.
- -Were you scared?
Yes, I was.
- -Ole, how about you?
I felt more like it
was something violent.
I feel like it should be more
like pulling his nose.. .
and psychological
violence instead.
Yeah?
Bjorn.
No, I think it worked on
a psychological level.. .
because it was not really violent.
It was more like little irritations.
Yes, I think you are onto the
right thing, but I think.. .
we should stop for now and
come back to it tomorrow.
We have an hour then too.
Now for something else that
is pressing is that.. .
we still don't know
what we're going...
to do for the
second commandment;
Love others as you love yourself.
Anyone have any
suggestions on that one?
Jens, I have an idea.
- -Yes?
Could I be allowed to
make a movie of it?
Yes, that sounds good, actually.
What do you guys say to that?
Well, there is just one
thing you have to remember,
it should not be longer
than 10 minutes.
That's not a problem.
What did you expect,
a feature film?
Well, what does
everyone say to that?
Well, then that is taken care of.
I think that we should stand
up and do the mirror exercise.
Hi.
Dad.
- -Yes.
There is something I want
to talk to you about.
Not just now, buddy.
Can you wait a little?
No.
I'll go up to my room.
- -That's fine.
Do you have some time?
Of course, what is it?
I think there is
something you should hear.
Okay.
Hello.
Would you please repeat what
you said to me earlier?
I think we should have
some things clarified.
Yes, it's not because.. .
I just think you should know.
I think it's nice to know who
your children hang around with.
I don't understand.
I came home right at
lunch, more exactly,
right after lunchtime,
and I find my boy, Tony,
lying right in the middle of
the carpet, kind of weird,
totally red in his
face, and pressing...
kind of weird onto the carpet.
I asked him of course what he is
doing and he turns around.. .
with a huge grin on his face,
and says,...'Sex is wonderful.'
I sat and thought of where he
would have read such filth.
He hangs around Kim a lot.
And he hangs around a lot with
the kids here at the school.. .
and they are not all
exactly nice boys, are they?
I don't understand. This
doesn't sound like Kim.
You're right.
Rest assured, Mrs. Jensen.
If there is something
to what you've...
said, I will surely take care of it.
Henrik!
Where are you?
Kim.
Can you please come down here?
Kim.
Did you see the raven?
- -No, I fell asleep too.
I'm freezing.
We should get home.
Aren't you finished yet?
Here, hold the dustpan.
Give me a puff.
Hey!
- -You pig!
What the hell!
- -You little shit.
.' Come, let us find, let us...
disappear in to a
place in the forest..'
.' Far in there where you sit on
a log and has the sky above....'
.' and moving and
crawling... free..'
.' I like flowers, I like girls
and I like wine..'
.' Beautiful are the flowers,
boys and girls and prospects..'
.' Loosen my clothes,
help me - free..'
.' Free me from those who
beat the heart out of you..'
.' Free me from those who only
make one's life miserable..'
.' Free me... from those
who only put me down..'
.' Free me... from those
who only put me down..'
.' Demanding lo v e,
demand for every one..'
Bo, stop playing with that wine.
It can't stand that,
and you'll spoil it.
There's nothing but piss wine.
We should have bought
some real alcohol.
It's nice to have a glass of wine.
Better off with a
glass of schnapps.
And a can of liver pat.
What is so funny?
I just thought of the time I
went to the supermarket and
asked him for some
pat de foie gras.. .
and he said, 'Yes, yes,
we have cans of pat.'
Yeah, they are a bit crazy
down at that supermarket.
Yesterday Lars and I were down
there to buy some rubbers.
We told the lady that we wanted
and she thought we
meant rubber bands!
So I had to explain to her
that it was condoms and.. .
she had to go to the
owner and talked to him.
I think they have a list of stuff
they are not allowed to sell to us.
What's on the list?
How am I supposed to know?
Anyway, we didn't get any.
I think she's supposed to
talk to the headmaster.. .
before giving us any.
I'm sure about that.
Let's eat!
.' Let it be summer,
hear how it's humming,.'
.' taking its time....'
.'... taking its time..'
.' The drums are playing, we are...
playing a number
on our stomachs...
.' we play on the flutes, free..'
.' Let me be thirsty, I'll
drink the old red wine..'
.'... old red wine..'
.' Totally wonderful,
unashamed, we laugh..'
.' Those raisins I will bless, free..'
.' Free me from those who
beat the heart out of you..'
.' Free me from those who only
make one's life miserable..'

Romeo and Juliet kiss.
Hey, hey, not so violent.
A little more feeling.
A little more feeling.
A little more warmth.
A carrot.
Stop it.
It tickles.
I'll try something funny.. .
try closing your eyes.
Come on!
Whoops.
Come here, you are drunk.
Lie down here.
- -No, I don't want to sleep.
Just rest a little.
- -Okay.
Shhh, quiet.
This is so much fun.
Can you see his father
totally flipping out?
Ole, shut up.
Kim, you have to handle
yourself now, okay?
Try to go upstairs and get into...
bed without anyone
noticing, okay?
You understand?
It's you!
Where have you been all day?
Are you sick?
What's wrong?
He must have eaten something
that made him sick.
We have to send
out for the doctor!
A doctor?
The boy is drunk!
Thank you.
Go up to bed again.
When one is sick,
one stays in bed.
And I have something
to talk to you about.
Go.
Yeah, I'm gonna get one.
Hi, Bo!
- -Hi!
I am so full!
- -Yeah, me too.
Oh man, my tire is flat.
Shit.
Must be those stupid
farmer assholes.
I think we lost them.
I can't see them anyway.
Bo?
- -Yeah.
Do you think it was silly that time?
What?
That time in the bathroom.
That was totally fine.
I was really scared.
I thought it was one of
the teachers that came in.
I think it's fine if you're
with either a boy or a girl.
Last summer, I was with a boy.. .
that I really came
to care a lot about.
I think they're gone. Come on.
The headmaster was just here
and says you should go to bed.
Screw him, we are in the
middle of playing cards.
Can you not come back
in a couple of days?
I just have to win a couple million.
Come on.
- -Okay.
The headmaster mentioned
something about a party.
Do you guys know
anything about that?
Absolutely nothing.
Just between us, he
is on the warpath,
so I suggest you go
quietly into your rooms.. .
and to bed without any complaints.
I think Anderson is a fag.
Why do you say that?
He is always touching me.
You know what, one
doesn't have to be gay.. .
just because he touches
someone's shoulder.
Shit, it's just like jail.
Go to bed everyone, otherwise
the big bad headmaster.. .
will come and shout BOO at you!
That's strange.
Who could it be this late?
There was a light in the
bathroom and I thought.. .
you should see this.
Get all the students into
the gym... immediately.
It's almost 11:30.
Isn't it better to.. .
Immediately!
But that I have to discover this
kind of filth yet once again.. .
This time in the bathroom.
I am glad that Andersen
had his eyes about him.. .
and reported it to me immediately.
That is also the only thing I am
happy about in this situation.
I warned you last time.
But this time, I cannot look
away from what has happened.
I would ask that the offenders
present themselves instantly.
Well.. .
We can be here all
night for all I care.
I have time.
You cannot seriously mean
that we will dismiss Ole.
He has enough problems
to begin with.
And I seriously think that the...
personal development
of children...
should come before the
school's reputation.
Hogwash.
The kids cannot be harmed by a
couple of pornographic pictures.
A couple of
pornographic pictures?
This school is filled with porn.
I know you don't think that we
should have that gymnasium.
It has nothing to do
with dismissing Ole.
Was it you or I that showed
around the municipality people?
I know exactly what I'm
doing, Mr. Karstensen.
Not by dismissing Ole.
We cannot let them tyrannize us.
We must set an example.
Imagine if all the kids just
went and pasted porno.. .
wherever they felt like it.
It was exactly not wherever.
It was first in the rooms,
which should and.. .
must remain the children's
private quarters.
And then in the bathroom.
After Mortensen had prohibited it,
don't forget that.
No, I agree with the headmaster.
We should not be too forgiving.
We should also think of
the other children.. .
who are not used to this stuff,
who come from good
Christian families.. .
who might feel that their
modesty is being impinged upon.
What crap!
In today's world, children are used
to seeing pictures of naked girls.
There are loads of them
all over the newspapers,
and if I recall, you yourself.
Mr. Justisen, read Extra Bladet.
Definitely not to look at
naked girls, Mr. Karstensen.
Mr. Justisen, no one is
saying that you sit.. .
and study the naked pictures.
It is just said that
children are used...
to seeing those kinds of pictures...
and don't feel that their
modesty is being impinged.
Anderson, what do you think?
I think that it was
wrong of the children.. .
especially after
having been warned.
I don't think that it
should go unpunished.
But could you not give
a firmer warning.. .
and then speak to the parents?
No, no, Andersen.
You know the parents
aren't any better.
We have to hold onto
our principles.
I implore that you understand
that we will have.. .
a better working
environment if we all agree.
Then let us agree on
not dismissing him.
Impossible.
Then there is nothing
we can do, but to vote.
Who votes to dismiss Ole?
Do you mean that I am
thrown out of the school?
Call it what you will.
School is almost over.
You should have thought
about that earlier.
We will make sure your
parents are advised tonight.
Kiss my ass, you idiot!
Who the hell do you think you are?
What do you stand for?
Do you know what
you voted yes to?
Do you know Ole?
Do you know about his
background at all?
Yes, yes, you can talk.
You are a permanent employee
with living quarters.
What the hell am I?
A stinking substitute with
a family to take care of.
It has nothing to do with that.
This concerns Ole.
- -I am aware of that!
You have to take a little
consideration, all right!
And even though a
warning had been issued,
it is evident that a
warning was not enough.
We had to therefore get
rid of the rotten apple,
which you would think is a little
harsh on your fellow student,
but it was the only thing to
do under the circumstances.
Yes, Aske, what is it?
I would like you to leave the room.
What do you want?
I would like you to leave
so that we can discuss.. .
the dismissal of Ole.
I do not agree with
you and I bet that.. .
there are several others here
who do not agree with you.
You must be crazy.
Leave?
Do you know who
you are talking to?
I am the headmaster here.
Leave?
I make the decisions.
You are not leaving then?
No.
By my God-given right, I won't.
Well, then I'll leave,
and all those who have.. .
the same opinion as me
can just follow me.
And those who dare to have
an opinion can also come.
Shouldn't we just turn
it into a brothel?
Piss off!
Can you remember when you were
making out in the forest?
Shut up.
Can't you just shut up?
Where are we going
to get the paint?
And the money?
I'll arrange that somehow.
What are you doing here?
I just thought that I should
tell you that I support.. .
your action and if there is
anything I can do to help,
please let me know.
Yes, please.
There is the door
right there...use it.
Shut up, Ole.
If you could get the others
to come over to our side.
That would be great.
Shoot the headmaster.
If you could get us some paint.
Regarding getting others
to come over to your side.
I would think it best that
you do that yourselves.
But I really think that
I can get Conradsen.. .
to find you some paint
and if you have time,
paint this room as well.
I think it would be a
great student lounge.
Yeah, make out room!
Haven't you ever drunk before?
Yes, but suddenly I just got dizzy.
The last I can remember is that
my dad got really upset with me.
Here is the hole.
Hold it.
Could you not
remember anything?
Yes, I remember when you
blew my belly button.
I ran into Rohin one day and
they said my dad was stupid.. .
to have some stupid Copenhagen
communists here at the school.
What happened then?
- -Then I left.
You think I want to
fight with that kind?
.' And we raise to our fatherland,.'
.' that lies behind the river..'
.' There the waves rush in
across with warm waters....'
.' over the old golden sands..'
.' So there we will
stay for all times,.'
.' and the lights
will always shine..'
Yes, it is nice to see that there
are some responsible ones.. .
who prefer education
instead of boyish tricks.
I can assure you that you are
the ones who have chosen.. .
the sensible alternative.
Where the hell are the thermoses?
I don't know.
Kirsten?
Isn't this still leisure night?
No, the headmaster has
prohibited me from serving.. .
coffee until you guys
go back to class again.
How primitive!
Does he think we will fall for that?
Yeah, well.. .
I did make you two thermoses, if
you guys can shut up about it.
Cool!
It will cost you a kiss.
- -Okay.
Can't I get one too?
Of course you can.
Don't tell anyone though.
- -Okay.
Who called?
Petersen from the municipality.
What did he want?
He wanted to know what was
going on at the school.
Is it really right to send Ole
home right before graduation?
It should be a festive day.
You know it's not just up to me.
It has to be brought up at
the next teacher's meeting.
It would be a catastrophe if the...
students lose respect
for the teachers.
Young people must live
with consequences,
so I intend to stand my
ground, in any case.
Where is Kim?
He's gone to bed.
- -Really?

your small ones..'
.' Here, each, to collect..'
.' He gets a life that has a
little bit more meaning,.'

- -Right here.

Justisen is one of the teachers
at the school to be interviewed.
Why can't Ole stay?
Stop that silliness.
Stop that.
You should rather start your
classes again instead of.. .
all this nonsense.
Use your time for something wiser.
Why can't we be a part of the...
decision-making
process in the school?
You know very well that we
have certain rules here.. .
at the school and
they must be upheld.
Stop that. Go away.
Why did you vote
to have Ole leave?
Why do you think?
Stop it.
Get out of the way. Stop all that.
We can ask them over here.
I'm sure they have
a negative opinion.
Why have you not joined in leaving
the classes here at the school?
Is Ole not your friend?
I don't know really.
I think it's really crap
with all this porno.
No, it's not!
- -Yes, it is.
It's in the bathrooms.
A guy can't go anywhere
where there isn't any porno.
There's no use doing this.
The headmaster is strong.
You should realize that.
There are two that go.. .
What is this? Class is in session.
I am sorry that we
are disturbing you.
We would like an interview with
the headmaster about our strike.
Interview, for what?
We would like send it to
the public television,
children's division.
I won't have this
nonsense! Get out!
I'm teaching here. You
are disturbing the class.
Get out!
Out!
- -Okay.
Close the door.
Close the door!
A nice little throat you have.
Come on, Martin.
Have you ever seen a chicken
that is running away.. .
after it's had its neck cut?
Let's see the blood!
The chick screams as the
fox sinks its teeth in it.
Come on, Martin.
A nice little cut there.
Can't we go now?
Slice.
Let's go.
- -Shut up.
It's a little fun.
Communist.
You forgot to cut him.
Cut him.
- -Tear it.
Take it off.
Hey, over here.
Polish my shoe.
Nice to see a communist at work.
How does it feel to work?
Put some elbow grease in it.
Lick it!
Do what Martin tells you.
Lick it!
I said, lick my shoe!
Whoever touches
him gets a beating.
Hey, Martin!
Kiss my ass!
No way, you faggot pig.
I said, kiss my ass!
Bo, are you sleeping?
Shhh, be quiet.
Aske is sleeping.
Oh, you're so cold!
She's coming.
Quiet for one minute so that
I can tell you that.. .
it was unanimously decided that
Ole can stay at the school.
I am so excited that
we're going to perform.
I am just so nervous.
How long is your performance?
An hour.
- -An hour?
If I could have your
attention, please.
I will tell you a bit about
the performance that.. .
the students this year
are about to present.
We have chosen to use the ten...
commandments as
a starting point,
but as you can see
here, we have changed it
to six that we feel are
relevant to our day and age.
The students have
had the freedom...
to translate the
six commandments.
Finally, I would like to ask that...
you not smoke during
the performance.
Thank you.
Turn it on.
We can be proud of the many
young people today.. .
who fight so that we
may live in peace.
I bless the weapons that will
be used against our enemies.
I bless the soldiers who
today fight in God's name.
God be with all of us.
Amen.
Bo... plug it in.
Karstensen.
Have you seen the movie?
- -No. Isn't this exciting?
Lights off!
