JANUARY 1996 HIGH TATRAS, SLOVAKIA
What?
I left my phone in the car. I'll be right up.
Or you're just trying to chicken out.
Or that.
Can I help you?
My headlamp is fucked.
Halogen, huh?
- How much was it? - Leave me alone, all right?
All right.
Eight grand each. German-made.
Can't get them here.
Do you know who I am?
Mikuláš Černák. In the flesh.
Did you like sledding as a kid?
Hey! What... Mr. Černák!
I didn't know the car was yours. Hey!
Come on!
Damn it.
MAY 1991 BAVARIA
...all of it needs to go.
- From the whole forest. - Hello.
- What is it, Miki? - My brother and I need to go home.
- Now? - Our father is sick.
I don't care. We still have a lot of work to do.
We have to get all those trees.
I don't care. You have a contract, understand?
It's impossible. You need to stay.
- Goddamn it, Vlado. - What are you doing?
We work our asses off, and he won't even do this one thing for us?
We promised to stay until the end of the week.
We'll go home later.
- But Dad's gotten worse. - We're not getting paid, otherwise.
Certainly not if you throw a chain saw at him.
Fuck that guy. I want to see Dad while he's still alive.
We'll head out on Friday evening. We'll be home the next morning.
We can make it.
"When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him.
'Lord,' Martha said,
'if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.'
Jesus said to her, 'Your brother will rise again.'
Martha answered,
'I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.'
Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life.
The one who believes in me will live, even though they die,
and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.'"
...we'd had some drinks. Miki had no money left for the train fare.
So, when the inspector came and asked for tickets, Miki just winked at me
and shoved the guy right out. He plunged head-first into the snow!
What's that got to do with my father?
Jeez, Vlado, can't a guy reminisce? Just pour me another drink.
Thank you.
Cancer is a bitch. Even the Lord is powerless against it.
- When are you heading back? - I wanna hang around a little longer.
Dad was some thirty grand in debt. I gotta take care of it.
And then back to Nuremberg?
I'll stick it out for another year or two. There's no work around here.
Bullshit, no work. You just need to be clever.
- Cle-ver. - Whatever you say, Miloš.
It's all gonna work out, you'll see.
We'll see.
Get in.
Be thankful for what you have.
One day, it's all gonna go away.
Hands up!
Stop horsing around.
Come and have lunch.
I should go and shoot us some meat for sausages.
You want the police to catch you? You're an adult. Be sensible.
Mom's right. You'll get caught and thrown in jail.
- You can forget about Germany. - I don't care.
You don't wanna go back to Germany?
What's the point? You make money, but they treat you like shit.
People say it's all rosy in the West. You can't even say goodbye to your father.
What are you gonna do here?
There's work at the co-op.
Yeah, but it pays a pittance.
Better than slaving around over there.
Like you're not gonna slave around at the co-op.
If he doesn't wanna go back, he won't. Leave him alone.
Times have changed. It's not like in the Communist days.
The priest said the State was giving back their forests.
You can't go poaching on Church property.
They want me back at the bus company, but I'd rather be my own boss.
I've bought two buses.
- You're gonna be a big-time businessman. - We'll see how it goes.
I still have money set aside from Germany.
Iveta wanted to invest it in the house, but I think now's the time to take risks.
- When else, right? - There are so many knobs!
- Take a left here. - Where are we going?
Lojzo!
Call Lojzo!
- Lojzo! - Yeah?
I brought you tangerines and a grapefruit. Don't let them go to waste.
I left them with the guards.
How are things?
Taking it easy.
- Okay. Bye! - Bye.
- Who's that? - Lojzo. Great guy. We did a job together.
It went a little south, but he'd rather go to jail than rat on his friends.
- Must've been a shit job if he's in jail. - Some jobs go well, others don't.
But we're all the wiser for it.
What kind of job was it?
So, you have a bus company, and you're looking to expand?
- Now's the time to invest. - You've made the right choice.
You won't regret this.
My colleague has already worked out the contracts.
Payment's due in three months, if that's okay.
It's okay.
My partner's gonna sign, if that's okay.
But... you're going to pay, right?
You're not going to sell the cars so that our company comes up short,
right?
- Are you the company owner? - No.
Even if that were to happen,
"if,"
you'd incur no personal loss. Quite to the contrary.
Here's some coffee money.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
Here you go.
Here.
Thanks. Like I said, keep your mouth shut and everything will be okay.
We should professionalize.
We can't work with deadbeats like him.
Which one do you have in mind?
We signed everything to his name.
If he talks to the police, we'll all end up in jail.
If he starts talking, he'll disappear.
Boys, why aren't you celebrating?
Are you not happy?
We're about to make three mill in profit.
Three mill!
Come on, smile a bit.
There you go! That's the smile of a happy, successful man.
Eh?
Cut it out!
This is gonna be a lot of work.
- You gonna drive Gypsies to the woods? - Yeah, like hell I am.
Even worse: school trips.
The kids are gonna puke all over the seats.
I hear you've also bought some trucks.
- Me? - I ran into Martin's mother at church.
She said you'd gone to Germany to sell some trucks.
We were just helping out a friend.
He needed drivers.
"My friend needed drivers"?
If at least you'd come up with a proper excuse.
You wanna live at my mom's forever? I can't sit on my ass, pinching pennies.
We've made forty grand on the buses this month.
Most people don't make that in a year.
No one got hurt. Don't make a big deal of it.
It was just one job. It won't happen again.
Good night.
Hey. What's up?
What are you doing?
It's Friday, so I went out for a little drink.
Friday gave you a busted lip?
Some faggots from Revúca or some such shithole.
- What? - They were acting all tough,
so I gave them a little talking-to.
You asshole. Come on.
Hey! What are you doing?
Are you all right?
Shit.
Dear Lord.
- What's happened? Miki... - It's all right, Mom.
- What's happened? - Go back to bed.
Miki!
You got a moment?
Did you throw a grenade into my mom's yard?
Is there a problem?
Let me out!
I'll pay for the damage. It wasn't my fault!
It was his fault!
He jumped me from the back. I lost my temper. It wasn't my fault.
Did you jump him from the back?
Look at me and look at him.
If I'd seen him coming, I'd have knocked the life out of him.
- So, you're calling my brother a liar? - Brother? Oh, fuck.
Okay. I wasn't there. I don't know what happened.
Untie him.
It shouldn't have gone this far.
My mistake. It won't happen again.
You scared the shit out of me. What now?
Nothing. Fist fight. One-on-one. We'll see who comes out on top.
If you can take him, fine. My brother is lying.
He jumped you, you lost your temper.
But if you're lying... There's a forest right there.
And don't think we're gonna dig your grave for you.
You'll dig it yourself.
You'll need an excavator.
- Fuck this. - You just told me you could take him.
- Vlado? - Can't hurt to try.
Come on then. I wanna be done with you fuckers!
My wife can't sleep because of you.
And my mom can't fathom how pricks like you are even alive.
Which hand did you throw the grenade with?
- Danubit. - Excuse me?
- Danubit. - Sorry.
Which hand did you throw the Danubit with?
Slam! Slam! Slam!
He was screaming so loud that I had to go and calm the ponies.
He was bleeding, drooling...
Then Miki wiped his bat and said, "Never drag family into your problems."
- Am I right, Miki? - You're right.
Were you gonna bury him?
- So they'd lock me up? - Wait, I'm not done yet.
You know what he did on the way back? He shit himself!
He didn't know whether to hold his hand, his ass, or his head!
Okay, enough. This is Lojzo's evening.
Exactly. To our friend, Lojzo. May he stay out of jail like a...
May he stay out of jail.
Lojzo.
How long were you in the can?
Two years?
And he'd still be there if not for me. "You're a great friend, Miloš. The best."
Your family must be looking forward to seeing you.
I like that you stood up for your family. Family is important.
You shit your bed, you lie in it.
What?
How about a drink?
Some other time. Enjoy family time.
Come on. Just one shot.
Let's go.
You must be glad to have your husband back.
No one was more eager for my return.
Enough, Lojzo.
- Thanks, I've had enough. - See? He can speak for himself.
What, you don't like my friends?
You didn't mind Miloš when he was bringing you money.
Miloš took care of you.
Not like Laco. You remember Laco.
He was in on the job, too, but only I got sent to the can.
You're home. Leave it alone.
Call Laco. Invite him over. Tell him Miloš is here. He liked Miloš.
- Maybe we should talk. - My own family.
My cousin's husband, and he didn't give a shit about me.
Maybe because he was busy taking care of you?
Why do you have to humiliate me?
I'm humiliating you, you slut?
- Let's go. - Where?
- To see Laco. - Hey, Lojzo.
Come on. You should sleep on it.
- You'll see things clearer in the morning. - What's up?
My wife says she didn't fuck Laco, but can I trust her?
Come on, guys. We'll just scare him a little. I wanna know where I stand.
You coming?
Where does he live?
Lojzo, why don't we dial it back a bit? We can talk tomorrow after work.
Go back to bed.
- Hey. - Get in.
Can I drive?
What's new, Laco? Your wife okay?
- We're not going to your place? - We're going for a drive.
- Hey, take it easy. - Close the door. There's a draft.
- Finished? - I spent an hour digging like an idiot.
Take a right around that tree.
- Lojzo, I swear I didn't do anything. - Need any help?
- Let's go. - Hey! Tell him to stop!
- What's up? - Lojzo just wants to scare him.
- They'll be right back. - Ah.
I took the fall for that bastard, and he was fucking my wife.
Will you be able to sleep?
What did you shoot?
You drag Vlado out of bed at night.
I have no more room for the meat.
Was it another deer?
It was a bear. A nice, fat old teddy.
Have you boys lost your mind? Do you wanna get killed?
He had his paws up like this, staring at us with his owllike eyes.
Aren't you supposed to be at the co-op?
Suddenly, we drove out of the village. Laco wasn't stupid.
He wanted to jump out, but Miki held him back.
The bastard would've gotten away if he hadn't.
To Miki's presence of mind.
- Nobody saw you? - Don't worry. No one's gonna tell on us.
Everyone knows who Lojzo is.
- Who is he? - What do you mean?
This wasn't his first time. He got his first kill in the commie days.
His whole family is scared of him. And scared people don't do shit.
- Amen to that. - Amen.
You're man enough to cripple a guy, huh? But you're too chicken to finish the job?
- Watch your mouth. - What?
I just don't wanna go to jail.
You guys smell that? Have you shit your pants?
- Fuck you! - Vlado! Vlado!
You think you're tough, huh?
- Huh? - Calm down, damn it!
I don't want him coming back.
He won't.
Here's where we'll put the bar.
MAY 1993 BREZNO
We'll tear up the floor
and lay down nice, Italian marble.
We'll knock down this wall
and put up nice, antique columns.
- That'll be expensive. - Expensive?
Maybe if Vlado helped you,
but this way,
it'll be a lot of work and money.
We'll have to start from scratch. New windows, new roof...
We'll basically keep nothing but the walls.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Location's good, though.
It's close to your work.
- What do you mean, my work? - You'll see.
BUILDING FOR SALE
We'll have a gym downstairs,
and up here, you can hold aerobics classes for women.
Wanna go for dinner, celebrate a little?
It's nice, right?
Work your body right, damn it.
Are you enjoying your meal?
That schnitzel's as big as a tractor wheel.
Were you as surprised as I was?
- By what? - Your husband taking you out.
My man's too busy. He never takes me anywhere.
- What does your husband do? - He's the Criminal Police chief.
They're swamped like you wouldn't believe.
- What wouldn't she believe? - How busy you are.
- Sometimes, he works overnight. - Yes, I'm very busy.
The whole country's been running riot since the revolution.
And whose fault is that? The guys upstairs.
Amnesties. They unleashed the most god-awful scum upon the earth.
Now, our streets are flooded with junkies, thieves and murderers.
- And we're left to clean it up. - Terrible.
If at least the job paid well, but no. It's pennies.
I make as much in a year as some thug makes on a single job.
- Is that normal? - Certainly not.
When the State doesn't work, nothing works.
You're one to talk. Lawyers are having a field day.
Especially ones with no backbone, such as yourself.
I should be offended.
But he's right.
- Yep. - Don't listen to them.
There are good people in the world.
Martin got me a higher salary at the processing plant.
And what did he ask in return? Nothing.
I help where I can.
If you ever wanna go on holiday, we can pick a nice trip for you.
Not for free, of course. We'll write it off Fantozzi's bonuses.
Maybe some other time.
Think about it. We'll be glad if you take some time off.
Our treat.
Hey! What the hell are you doing?
If it doesn't look like a robbery, the insurance company won't cover it.
We'll unload the cargo and leave the car just outside Zvolen.
In the morning, you'll call the police and report it stolen.
Miloš said you'd pay me in advance.
- Miloš said that? - Yes.
Miloš says a lot of things.
Miki.
- What's going on here? - We're heading out in five minutes.
You'll drive ahead.
If you come across a patrol, you'll radio in.
- How's your boss? - He's in the Canaries with some whore.
I'd reckon he's good.
Guys, come on.
I'm glad you're doing well and all,
but plastic bags?
Have a little fucking class.
You can't hide your money in your underwear drawers.
It's disgusting and unsafe.
You need a front for laundering it.
Welcome to S-3 Security.
The company's incorporated.
Our license application has been approved.
Divvy up the keys. I appear to have got them tangled up.
Good luck.
Well then.
We're thinking too small. Fuck billing fraud and all that shit.
- We gotta start making real money. - Don't get ahead of yourself.
I'm thinking ahead. The guys in Prievidza are making millions on heating oils.
If we don't step in now, we'll regret it for the rest of our lives.
Ondro,
see that car?
We have a buyer. We need to borrow it.
If you can borrow it so that no one finds it again, you'll get coffee money.
We can't just stand here with folded arms, watching the Russians
and other scum encroach on our turf and racketeer our businesses.
You think we're just gonna scare them off?
- We won't know until we've tried. - Miki, talk to this idiot.
He'll get us in trouble.
Yeah? Finished?
You need dependable men. You can't rush headlong into things
and then have someone stab you in the back.
Yeah, I know.
ORGANIZED CRIME UNIT
Who is this freak?
I spent eight hours torturing him, threatening to lock him up,
and nothing.
He didn't even tell me his name.
You're just the type of guy we need.
So it was just a test, you pricks?
Welcome to the gang.
I've known Jano since school.
He'll be a hundred times more grateful than the figureheads before.
This is a dependable guy?
Jano, what's up?
Has your wife left you?
Yeah.
Where's Miki?
- Have you seen Miki? - Who?
- Miki. - No.
- Where's Miki? - In the back, I guess.
Miki...
Can't you knock?
I need you for a sec.
Can't it wait?
Vlado's been in a fight.
He's an adult. He can take care of himself.
I'm not sure about that.
- You didn't mean to. - I didn't, I swear.
We were at the bar, having a good time.
Schwarzbacher came, started running his mouth,
so I gave him a smack. He fell and hit his head.
It wasn't my fault.
- It's never his fault. - I wanted to help him.
I loaded him into the car to drive him to hospital,
but he died on the way.
So, you left him at the bus stop in the middle of the village.
Was I supposed to bury him?
- You shouldn't have gotten into a fight. - You're both so fucking clever.
How can I look my mom in the eye?
How can I tell her what he's done? And that he's gonna spend 15 years in jail?
What do we pay you for? To act all self-important?
Instead of making excuses, think about what we're gonna do.
I didn't say anything.
Look, I'm sympathetic to your cause.
Dano here is practically family.
I always try to help family.
I've done everything in my power as a judge.
Plus, you've given me that incentive, so I won't go out of my way to foil you.
But?
Well,
I've read the file.
The autopsy report is fine, we could say it was an accident.
He hit his head. Whoops! It happens.
It's what the Lord intended.
But?
The police have a witness. The owner of the bar saw what happened.
- So? - His statement can be doctored,
but you'll still need him to keep his mouth shut.
Do you know the guy?
You need to talk to him, make him retract the statement.
- What if he refuses? - You're gonna have to dispatch him.
- Dispatch him where? - Come on, Miki.
They were sitting right where you are.
Vlado hadn't had too much to drink.
He knew what he was doing.
Men get in fights sometimes, they smack each other up,
and then go back to drinking together.
If you were a local, you'd understand.
This wasn't the first time he got in trouble.
I know the guy. All too well.
Why are you here? Have you come to trash the place?
I've come to make a deal.
A deal?
You need to retract your statement. It was an accident.
Even if I wanted to do that, the police warned me against it.
They'd know what would've happened.
And they'd charge me with giving a false statement.
Why should I go to jail?
We'll take care of the police.
So, it's true what they say about you. You're play-acting mafiosi.
We can be very generous. Don't people say that, too? They do.
You could spruce this place up.
Vlado killed the man.
Money won't make that go away.
- Prison will only do him good. - So, you're playing judge?
You're not gonna bring the guy back.
You'll just ruin my brother's life.
I just told them the truth.
It's not my fault you find that inconvenient.
I wanna be able to look in the mirror.
Vlado will be home soon.
He didn't do anything.
We're closed.
Good evening.
My car broke down outside the village. I need help.
When did you have extrauterine pregnancy?
At eighteen. I had to go into surgery a few days before my wedding.
You got married because you were pregnant?
The doctors didn't want to let me go to my wedding.
I had to promise to return by midnight.
I got my bonnet and then went straight back to the hospital.
What... No!
- What? - No. I want to go dance.
You can't be serious.
We'll dance when they release you for real, okay?
We'll make ourselves another.
The doctors completely neglected postoperative care.
Hence the infection and other complications.
It'd be a miracle if you got pregnant again.
Never say never.
Right?
I know he has mistresses, I'm not blind.
But he brings in the money, takes care of the kids, and he's nice to me.
Still, if we didn't have kids, I don't know how long I could stand it.
Sorry.
It's fine.
I'm glad he and Miki work together. They can look out for each other.
I saw Vlčeková earlier.
Who?
The innkeeper's wife.
I hear her husband's run out on her. Never even said goodbye, can you imagine?
If I were him, I'd be ashamed, abandoning a woman and child like that.
- This is good to go, right? - Yeah.
- How's it going? - What can I say?
I can't complain.
So I see.
I've brought you fresh clothes and stuff.
Mom wanted to come, but I told her it wasn't a good idea,
so she at least made you a pie.
- I should've been out already. - Hang in there.
We're doing what we can. The prosecutor has filed an appeal.
They've referred your case to the regional court.
And?
Some do-gooder lady judge is presiding.
She can't be paid off.
But we're trying to find another way.
Miki, you can't be serious.
She's a she-bear!
She's got biceps bigger than my thighs.
I'd rather bury her someplace, just don't ask me to do this.
Yeah, I know.
For Vlado.
I need you to step down from my brother's case.
Let's see...
Your colleague here will gladly take over. It'll be better for everyone.
Martin, buddy! This man here is like my own brother.
As long as Vlado's in the can, he's my right-hand man.
I can't imagine how we'd make things work without him.
Miro Sýkora.
- Martin. - These guys have come from Bratislava.
You should hear his stories. Can't make that shit up.
Martin, tell them about how you went bear hunting.
Some Ukrainian was blackmailing a local businessman.
The boys went to sort him out.
If he won't tell the story, I will. The guy was stirring shit up. He had to go.
Shoot him.
- I can't, man. - Fucking shoot him!
They had him over the pit, but they couldn't agree on who'd shoot him.
The Ukrainian seized the moment and ran off into the woods!
So, they drove off, acting like he wasn't worth the trouble.
But Martin and two other guys hid near a hay feeder.
The Ukrainian would have to pass by on his way back.
And then, lo and behold, a naked man walking down the valley!
- I didn't mean that story. - Which one then?
Excuse me.
I hear you Bratislava guys are making big bucks importing arms. Huh?
I've got us involved in heating oils.
We could be useful to each other. What do you say?
We both need people at customs.
- We'll discuss this when Miki's back. - Sure.
Okay.
I gotta go. I'll be home tomorrow.
- Wife? - Yeah.
Does she know about this?
She'd rather not know.
You come home after a long day, and they start rattling your ears off,
"The toilet's leaking. We need a new shelf. We need this and that..."
And I can't say, "Leave me alone. I had to off a guy today."
Fuck the leaking toilet.
They'd never understand I'm doing it all for them.
No, they wouldn't.
It gets a bit much sometimes. But it's not like we can just quit.
I hear you've taken a job in Bratislava.
I was gonna talk to you.
- I wouldn't go behind your back. - Who placed the hit?
Braňo Škubla.
How much?
One million. A friendly price.
For offing Žaluď?
Yeah.
It's not enough.
Žaluď has more lives than a cat. So far, he's always survived.
My guys aren't work-shy.
How about you?
What's that for? Giving Žaluď a tickle?
It's small and handy. Two bursts and he's dead.
- You can't even find the safety. - Shut up, can't find it.
- Here it is. - Žaluď has bodyguards.
You'll never get close enough. Leave it.
Keep it away from knives and anything else that might throw a spark.
Don't store it in the cold, don't smoke near it,
don't eat, don't drink, don't lick it,
don't be an idiot.
Hi.
Mom wants me to go see the Pope.
- And get some indulgences? - Asshole.
Her church group is going to Rome, but the driver has dropped out.
She was like, "How about you drive us, Miki?
They're your buses, aren't they?"
Grab your passport and prayer book, put your hands together and go.
Quit fiddling with it, or it's gonna blow.
- Is my mom going, too? - Don't know.
We're sending two buses. One from Telgárt, one from Šumiac.
- That means she's going. - Hundred percent.
Miki.
Wait until he gets in.
Wait.
- His daughter? - He doesn't have a daughter that age.
Either we take him out, or we call Child Protection on him.
Well then?
Hold it.
Hold the rhythm.
You should've done it. Braňo is nervous. He wants results.
He can wait. That girl may be stupid, but she hasn't done anything.
These jobs need to get done quickly.
Otherwise, things start piling up, and that's never good.
- What things? - Prievidza. There are problems.
One of the new guys has fucked up.
We need to call the police on them.
Look at how they park.
Miki, you know I'm not one for rumors.
I'd never have come without evidence.
Have you lost your fucking mind? This gives us a bad look.
Don't believe a word she says.
You were supposed to keep an eye on her. That was your job.
- I did keep an eye on her. - Oh, yeah? Just what did that entail?
What did she tell you?
Is it true?
What did she tell you?
She fucking enjoyed it.
Paľo, she'll keep her mouth shut.
There's no need to tell Miki.
Where are we going?
To try out a detonator.
It failed on me last time, so I wanna test the range.
There's gonna be fireworks, eh?
- That's right. - I like fireworks.
Follow them. They know where we're going.
What?
When we started the firm, I said I wouldn't work with people I didn't know.
- We only got you on board thanks to Lojzo. - I really appreciate it. I do.
- What were you in for? - Robbery.
- I see. - Yeah, we asked around.
There was also rape, right?
- That was long ago. - Long ago?
Come on, Miki. Bieliková's lying. I didn't do anything.
She's not lying.
She's not.
- Like you're ones to talk. - What the fuck did you say?
Why did you have me guard her? Her poor husband had vanished.
She was scared someone might come after her, too.
But why did he vanish? 'Cause good old Miki was gonna take care of her.
You wanted Bielik's business. He was in the way, so you took him out.
- That's not the same thing, is it? - Yeah, how so?
Bielik knew what he was getting into. But family...
Family is off-limits, my friend. You know that.
Good old Miki decides who gets put away and who doesn't.
Fuck you, Miki. Fuck you both!
Goddamn it, Martin.
Hit the fucking brakes, Miki.
Fuck, he's stuck.
Fuck!
Stop the fucking car!
Shit.
- Miki, you all right? - Yeah.
You okay, Miki?
Hold on.
Couldn't you have waited?
- He was mouthing off. - Goddamn it, you're a prick.
Fuck!
Shit.
WHO IS BEHIND THE ATTACK?
All month, you sit around on your asses,
you make promises, you busy yourselves with fucking Prievidza,
and when you finally blow up Žaluď's ass, he survives!
- I set it off a little early, to be sure. - You're a bunch of goddamn screwups!
- I'd watch my mouth if I were you. - Am I wrong?
You postpone and postpone, and still, you fuck it up!
You gotta pay up.
- Like we agreed. - What for? A botched job?
Braňo, I'm serious.
All you did was tip Žaluď off that someone's after him.
He'll find out who's after him and then he'll come after me, you pricks!
You should pay me for wasting my fucking time with you!
Miki, I swear I'm gonna pay! Come on!
I've made some investments, but I'll get the money soon.
Miki! Miki!
Drag him a little further.

- Lord, have mercy. - Lord, have mercy.
If only everyone were like you, Mikuláš.
A successful businessman, yet you make time to drive us to see the Holy Father.
If only everyone took such good care of people around him.
- Thank you. - We'll say a prayer for you in Rome.
Yeah. If we get there.
Miki, what's going on?
Don't know. The customs officers must think we're smuggling something.
Why would they think that?
I don't know. They're Austrians.
A godless nation.
They put my info into the computer, and I guess my name popped up on some list,
because they took the whole bus apart.
- Did you see the Pope? - Like hell I did.
I couldn't even sleep. They sang so much that it gave me a headache.
All right. You'll finish the story tomorrow.
Are you off to see the judge?
No more she-bears for me, boys. From now on, I'm only fucking chicks!
Assholes. You're just jealous.
Behave yourselves.
Whoops.
What do you mean, "whoops," you prick?
Can I help you?
Please, proceed.
What the fuck are you laughing about?
Are you out of your mind?
- Why do you do this to me? - What?
You always say how you care about family...
- Why did you even marry me? - Iveta, come on.
I wasn't pregnant anymore. You could've walked out.
- Wait a sec. - It would've been better for us both.
I'm busy. Can this wait?
Do we know the name of the guy who did this?
No.
Shit.
Martin couldn't deal with one security guy?
It started with one. Later, there were six of them.
When they found out he was one of us, their boss ordered him killed.
Three shots to the heart.
Do we know the boss?
"When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him.
'Lord,' Martha said,
'if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.'
Jesus said to her, 'Your brother will rise again.'
Martha answered, 'I know he will rise again...'"
Am I going to cry for you like that?
Never.
It's starting to get a little too hot.
Miki.
Prievidza is getting too hot. Paľo is stepping out of line,
and some other prick is trying to get in on our business.
Miki.
Not today. Today, we celebrate.
We'll go through the ministry.
The local party chief, he owes us a favor.
- You good, Mayor? - Not nearly as good as you, Miki.
Take him away, or he'll gamble away the entire town budget.
I'll give you the key to his office. Name your salary.
I'll come to your gym on Monday.
- We can talk then. - No, I have a big problem.
It's about these bodybuilders.
I'll pass by on Monday. We'll talk about it.
These all yours?
- Why five? - One for the forest,
one for Iveta,
and one for you to represent in.
Seven Series Bimmer, E38. There's two in all of Slovakia.
One's yours, the other is the prime minister's.
You'll have something to drive to the co-op in.
Come, I'll introduce you to Djinn.
You've got a tiger? A tiger?
My friend brought him over from Siberia. I went to get him in Brno.
- I think I'd like another one. - What for?
Well,
he inspires respect,
strength and nobility.
Doesn't Iveta mind?
Do I have a choice?
Vlado!
Welcome home.
I have the same Bimmer as the prime minister.
Let's see...
- Let's go. - Here's the kitchen.
It's quite nice. Look.
- Here's the bedroom. - I see.
Miki lives, what, five hundred meters away?
Five, six...
And the church is right over there.
She's already been to the church.
Here's the living room.
I'll get a TV, a couch...
When you come over, you'll sleep in the bedroom, I'll take the couch.
Okay, it's nice. I just hope you have time to enjoy it.
If they lock you up again, my heart will give out.
I was wrongfully charged.
Don't worry, I'll make sure he stays out of trouble.
- And I'll make sure you do. - Yeah, right.
Darling, I tried that for twenty years.
You'll have to take a tenderizer to his head.
- Look, this is from Djinn. - Well, isn't that great?
You boys and your toys. What good is a tiger?
If at least you could make sausages from it.
Yeah?
Is something wrong?
Djinn.
- What's going on? - Don't know.
I've brought the guys, like you asked. Jaro had an argument.
- What argument? - I don't know, Miki. We just came.
Who the hell are these guys?
- What are you doing here? - What are you doing here?
- What's up with him? - What do you care what's up with him?
Jaro, your receptionist called, said there was a problem.
- These guys giving you trouble? - Jaro's fine. Stay back.
- Who the fuck are you? - Me? Who the fuck are you?
Hey, Miki?
Miki? Are you with me?
- Lock the door. - What?
The door!
Shut up!
The bullet ricocheted.
Fucking shut up!
SANITATION DAY
Motherfucker.
What the fuck is he staring at?
- They're about to fuck off. - Good.
It won't fit all three of them.
- Wrap him in a carpet. - Okay.
- How far is the truck? - 500 meters?
Thank you. Goodbye.
Mr. Černák, about that building permit for your hotel.
You don't remember me? I'm Zita from the Building Authority.
- Sorry, I'm busy. - I see. How are you?
- Taking it slow. - You're not that old.
Where I come from, only the elderly say they're "taking it slow."
The young say they're "taking it easy." You shouldn't say "taking it slow."
- You're not that old, right? - What was that about a permit?
Right. Next week, we're expecting a statement from Water Safety.
The permit should be forthcoming.
Hi.
We're helping our friend move.
- Miki, this calls for a fucking excavator. - Shut up and grab it.
We cleaned up the gym.
Those guys arrived in a Škoda.
We had it taken apart. The gym owner sends his thanks.
The surgery was a success.
They removed the bullet.
We managed to get him out before the police came.
This old man in his hospital room thought we were kidnapping him,
so he yelled for help.
Were they trying to muscle in on your business?
You didn't know them, you don't know what they wanted,
you had no stake in it.
It didn't concern you in any way.
Some shit you've got yourself into.
JANUARY 1996 HIGH TATRAS
And that's it, gentlemen.
Slovaks are finally masters in their own house!
That calls for an applause.
What about us Hungarians?
"O Falcon! O Pigeon!"
O falcon! O pigeon!
Won't you be sorrowful?
O falcon! O pigeon!
Won't you be sorrowful
When your little head
Is lying in the grave?
My dear friends, my brothers
Vanishing one by one...
Step on it!
My dear friends, my brothers
Vanishing one by one
One of them's been drafted
Another's going tomorrow...
What?
Call your wife. She's looking for you.
Later.
POLICE
There's nothing we can do.
It is as God intended.
You raised your sons well.
You can be proud.
Your son, correct?
If he'd done his time, he could still be alive.
And so could my husband.
My husband was supposed to testify against your son.
Three years ago, he disappeared,
never to be seen again.
I don't know about any of that.
No one knows anything, no one saw anything...
everything happened of its own accord.
The whole village admires your Miki.
A Telgárt boy,
a bus driver, and look how big he's made it,
how much money he's got.
But everyone knows how he got it.
I'm sure you know, too.
At least you get to bury him.
Who are those men?
My friends.
These
are your friends?
