Between Us (Entre nous)

Why are you here?

Elodie had another crisis.

She's in the hospital, I don't know what happened.

I'm leaving. Meet me there, OK?

Okay go! I'll be there soon.

BETWEEN US

One year ago...

So cute. What would you do if you were her?

With a black rabbit?

I don't know.

Stop. It's not nice.

So why are you having fun with a little white rabbit then?

What do you think?

I don't know.

I'm getting a drink. Would you like a tea or an infusion?

Yes.

I want a huge black coffee.

Don't be silly. You know, your heart...

I know, you don't need to remind me all the time.

Well...

You know, tomorrow I meet our potential flatmates.

We don't have to find a flatmate.

You changed your mind again.

It's too late...

- Fuck. - I already have a lot of appointments anyway.

There is no rush.

- What? - Yeah.

There is no rush?

You know I can't afford our expenses alone.

My shop, the rent and your studies.

We've had this talk a million times, Laeti.

Sorry.

But

We don't have to admit anyone in our lives.

So do you want me to fire Magalie?

- That's it. - If there is no choice

Why do you take everything so lightly?

You ask for my opinion.

- It's easy for you. - No.

Yes. You're free as a bird.

You do whatever you want, whenever you want.

I'm here, I'm stuck and I'm in debt.

Is this a reproach?

Just too much stress.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

I could work.

No, I know you, you'll lose your way again.

You have to finish your studies. That's the most important thing.

All right.

Do we choose boy or girl?

We will choose someone responsible, with a job.

And if they are discreet, even better.

So a boy.

Of course.

No, we could also find a discreet girl.

Okay, do you know any discreet girl?

Imagine the situation, every morning,

three women waiting for their turn to invade the bathroom.

It's hard, I know.

I'm going to take a shower,

it won't be long.

I know you,

you're going to be in the bathroom for hours

Imagine having one more person around. You'll go crazy.

- Laetitia. - Sorry.

You are late. Sit down, everything is ready.

I remind everyone and Laetitia who has just arrived.

You are doing a proportional work, so you draw your axis line

on which you will put eight heads for the value of the body.

And from there, you can position the model.

The time today...

The pose is a bit longer so you have time

to adjust the shape of the model and remember to add the shadows.

Pay attention.

You are here to learn how to observe more than to draw.

I can see if your eyes are not looking at the model.

There is something physical.

Think about your model too,

fullness and emptiness are also important, don't be afraid.

Look, there is a beautiful shadow on the floor.

Position the axis of the feet as well,

it will give dynamism to your drawing.

Two girls living here? Great.

Cool, I accept.

Wait a moment.

I don't decide on my own. We'll call you.

Quickly, I have many options.

Okay.

Can I invite people?

Invite people?

To make ends meet.

I'm joking, it's not what you think. I'm a beautician.

You scared me.

Don't worry.

20 euros for make-up and 10 euros for bikini waxing.

For you it's free, obviously.

For both of you.

So? Is that a yes?

Actually I'll be honest,

I'm married and my lover is in the military,

we see each other every weekend.

You know, meeting in a hotel is creepy.

In the long run, I think it would tarnish our relationship.

Do you have any problem with homosexuality?

No.

I can pay a little more if that's necessary.

Don't worry, thank you.

I studied psychology in Paris.

I didn't have any friends, well, just some people I knew.

I realised that I had never used what I learned.

So I'm trying to get closer to a friendly world

that could be a model of cognitive approach,

without being a voyeur.

What an odd reason to find a flatshare...

Odd? Why?

Look, my girlfriend and I are in a simple,

sincere and unequivocal love relationship.

We won't participate in your experiment.

Keep sleeping, you look tired.

Yes.

It's crazy.

Nobody is compatible.

I told you it would be difficult, but when you want something...

You didn't faint at least?

No, but I'm very tired.

I'll see the cardiologist next month.

Finally.

I have many things to do.

Time flies.

And you know I don't like doctors.

Yes, I know.

Yeah.

I couldn't do all the things that you do for us.

Well, do you want a whisky?

Yes, I do. With ice.

- Are you waiting for someone? - Yes, the last candidate.

- I'll get the door. - Okay.

Whisky for everyone.

No, thank you. I never drink alcohol.

- Never? - No, never.

Never say never.

I don't smoke either. Never.

Great, it was my next question.

Are you working or studying?

Both.

What do you study?

A master's degree in philosophy.

I also write.

And what is your job?

I do magic tricks in a cabaret, Mademoiselle B.

Great! We love cabarets. We haven't been there in a long time.

Well, I could invite you.

Yes.

It can be interesting for our privacy, he works at night,

sleeps in the morning, in the afternoon he's at college.

And he's not here on weekends.

Honestly, it's perfect.

Great.

Maybe we can adopt him. Do you want to try?

You must try guys before you adopt them.

Let's go.

Stop it now, Elodie.

You can't treat me like crap just because I'm your employee.

I have many problems.

It's not a reason.

It's hard.

My life is hard too and I don't blame on you.

You don't understand.

Good morning.

- Hi, Roity. - Hi.

- All right, honey? - Yes.

Is Laeti in her class?

Close your eyes,

I have a surprise for you.

Can I help you?

Look!

All new! All brand new!

Diesel, Levi's...

Do you like them?

- Where did you find them? - You know I can't tell you.

Sure. But the cops will come to my shop.

It was only once, it's okay.

Of course, it's okay for you.

Did you think about it?

About what?

Having a baby.

What do you think about it?

It's not a good time.

Of course it's a good time.

You are the perfect age for a baby.

Listen, there are many children in the world

who are starving, abused and sick.

If I ever have a child, it will be an adopted one.

And only if Laeti agrees.

But that won't happen anytime soon, trust me.

But there are many women who live like you

who raise a child and sometimes more.

And who love each other because love is beautiful.

All a child needs is love.
