We Children from Bahnhof Zoo (We Children From Bahnhof Zoo)

This series is based on the experiences of Christiane F.

Individuals and events in her familial environment

and friends are fictitious or fictionalized.

That's yours.

Those are just for the pain.

We don't use medication. We have something better.

Get undressed.

What?

WE CHILDREN FROM BAHNHOF ZOO

We're impressed by Babette's talent.

You should encourage it.

Due to Babette's addictive tendencies,

we'll release her without medication.

Again, you won't be helping her if you try to shield her.

Hi, Aunt Luise.

"The gap between rich and poor exists alongside that of free and enslaved.

The transition to private property was accompanied by marriage.

The nuclear family became society's economic unit."

Patriarchy replaced slavery.

The woman is to the man what the slave was to the master.

The union of tribes becomes a necessity everywhere.

You see?

Yes.

Do birds fly?

Yes. Thank you.

Hello.

Is Benno in?

Want a beer?

"Dear Father, I'm sorry but we had to leave."

"We."

I thought you had left together.

You and my boy.

It's from Prague.

Have a seat.

What do you think?

Should a father report his own son to the police?

I had that savings account for 23 years.

What an asshole.

I called in sick.

For the first time ever.

PRAGUE

Hey, crybaby!

It was you who wanted to come here. A bit of freedom, you said.

I did that.

I mean it.

Watch out, the bridge! Ah!

Come on, help me!

Don't make fun of me.

Come on, give me some.

Do you see me differently now?

No.

You're my best friend.

The strongest person I know.

What happened was an accident.

Like this?

Hello, this is Christiane.

A friend of Babsi's.

Is she there?

You are not welcome here.

How could this possibly happen?

We can only help those who want to be helped.

Listen

Christiane actually made good progress.

Just bring her back when you find her.

-Hey Mommy, want some lesbian action? -I'm looking for my daughter.

Christiane. Dark hair down to here.

-About your height. -Lots of hookers here look like that.

-My daughter doesn't do that. -Sure.

I saw someone at the Bülowbogen toilet,

lying wasted on the floor.

Christiane!

Get lost, you cunt!

Don't touch me! Get lost!

Mom!

Narconon said I can sleep at home again.

I know that you ran away.

You are going back to Narconon right now.

And you won't come back

until you're back to normal!

Mom?

I'm not going back to Narconon!

They only make me do weird exercises there!

Mom!

Mom, they aren't helping me!

They can't save me!

I've lost my child.

No, you haven't.

Thanks.

What happened, my girl?

Morning.

I have to go. I have math.

Here.

Hello, do you have any change for the subway?

Thank you.

Got any change for the subway?

-Got any change? -Get lost!

Cunt!

Christiane.

Babsi!

Where were you hiding?

I was in a rehabilitation center.

They took care of me, and I'm totally clean now.

That's great!

I'm at Narconon, but I'm taking a break.

Checking out the scene.

But I'll go back soon and get clean too.

Would you want to go to Sound sometime, really rave it up?

I'd better not.

I might start an apprenticeship as a theater makeup artist.

And I'm taking drawing lessons.

The um, the DJ, was asking for you.

Dijan?

He was really worried about you.

Would be nice to see him again.

Saturday at 9?

Karin's in a bad way, Robert.

I'll find my daughter. Can you lend me 100 marks?

What do you want with 100 marks?

You have to think strategically.

You already owe me 200.

I'm only asking you to lend it.

You're screwing my wife,

that's the least you can do.

Thank you.

-Hello. -Wait!

Got a mark for me?

-Hello! Got a mark for me? -Shut your face!

Hey!

Seen her anywhere?

Look at her. That's Christiane, my daughter.

Yes, I've seen her somewhere.

-What's your name? -Speedy.

-No, what's your real name? -Speedy.

Okay, Speedy

Take this so you don't forget her face.

If you see her

or find out where she is, get in touch with me.

And if you do that Yeah?

Then

you get a big, fat 100 mark bill.

And this is my number.

Take good care of it.

Here.

Don't fuck it up.

Just heard you're getting out.

Yeah, child protection services got stuck in.

Would've been nice to hear it from you.

Not from fricking Schrothmann.

Will you write?

Course.

Look.

You can always go there.
