(IN GERMAN) Walking on the highway is prohibited.
- Can I see your papers? - Of course.
I'll take you to a petrol station. You'll find your way from there.
(GRUNTS)
(HORN BLARES)
(TIRES SCREECH)
(COUGHS)
(IN SERBIAN) Milan. Milan, I can't go on. I can't.
Never mind. They're not following us.
- I really can't go on. - Come on, come on.
- No more. - Come on, come on.
(TV BLARES)
He never stopped asking if you were alive.
He never forgot the day his dog died, so he keeps asking everything.
All kinds of things.
We missed you so much.
(PHONE VIBRATES)
(IN ENGLISH) Yes?
MAN: Damir asked me to call you. You need to meet with Julia Ortiz.
She's the money behind the airport deal.
Where?
- It requires a plane ride. - How long do I have?
- The plane is waiting, Zlatko. - OK.
- Yeah, bye. Talk to you later. - Bye.
(IN SERBIAN) Mihajlo, go play in your room.
Mihajlo. Come on, get a move on.
(SIGHS)
- I'm going to the airport. - New suit, eh?
But you forgot to shower. I can smell the sex on you, man.
- Will things be OK while I'm gone? - Yes.
His brother isn't home, but they'll be sure to catch him, no problem.
(TV BLARES)
(IN FRENCH) I was watching that. Turn it on.
Mum's worried about you.
(SIGHS) So am I, actually.
You know the first time I remember you crying?
- Did I cry much? - Hardly at all.
You were in the football team.
Dad wouldn't get you the shin pads all the other boys had.
So, you stole them. We found them.
You expected a bollocking. Instead, Dad walked into the school,
told your teacher you couldn't play on the team,
that you didn't deserve to represent your school.
It was simple for him: black or white.
You do the right thing in order to avoid doing the wrong thing.
And it's not simple for you?
No, I have a problem.
The second time you cried is when you left.
Though we all cried.
And the silence.
We all talked in whispers for weeks.
Like a tragedy had happened.
- Hadn't it? - And then he died.
Mokhtar kept getting pulled in. You didn't come back.
- And Mum? - Wait, wait.
You're saying Mokhtar was my fault? I should have come back?
- I was told to stay away, so I did. - To punish a dead man.
I wanted to come back, and I did, on my own terms.
On a big horse with the entire police department. Cock out. Ready.
(SHE SIGHS)
Dad was sure of himself. Full of pride, self-righteous. Always.
And it damaged people.
You've got a bit of that.
You think it makes you the man you are. But it doesn't.
You have a choice. Be your own man.
Hmm.
Can you turn the TV back on, please?
NAOMI: (IN ENGLISH) The man who delivered the dog is my current lead.
I really believe, with this, we can get who did this to us.
TOM: You see, that sentence already worries me.
Nobody did anything to us.
You were hurt in the course of doing your job.
And with the diamonds gone, our profit motive is gone,
the reason to find anyone responsible is gone.
The case is dead.
Tom, I never wanted to go in the first place.
You sent me. You made me go.
I'll pay for myself. Just let me finish this.
Break-ins in Shoreditch.
Would you believe some lunatic got away with £800,000 in rare shoes?
Lord knows what rare shoes are.
Go to it.
(IN FRENCH) She had 'Merry Christmas' tattooed on her left cheek.
On the right one, 'Happy New Year'. Tell her I'll come by during holidays.
(LAUGHTER)
By the way, we have the numbers.
It was not easy, but there is a number dialled over and over.
I'll be right back.
So, did the internal investigation clear you of the Serb's death?
- Any progress on the SIM card stuff? - We're getting there.
- Yeah? - Really. You can trust me.
Yeah, sure.
- MOKHTAR: Don't turn around. - Fuck.
Hello, brother.
I'm in deep shit, and you know it.
(ENGINE STARTS)
- What does Roman do for you? - He gives us information.
Like which flats we'll raid in Les Agnettes?
Son of a bitch.
- How much do you pay him? - We don't.
What do you mean, you don't pay him?
Believe it or not... He does it because he believes in us.
One king, to rule them all. A singular power that all can respect.
He believes, with one man in charge, the bloodshed will stop.
- Stop bullshitting me. Talk. - It's the truth.
It's out of control.
My boss killed the Serb with Roman's gun. Right in front of me.
- Who, who is the qaid? - Manu Esposito.
The son of a bitch would kill me for giving you his name.
You know people in other cities, I don't know anyone.
I just need to stay hidden.
I'm cracking up. You have to help me.
You made your choices, I made mine. I can't.
I'm your fucking brother. It counts for nothing?
You're going to bawl?
Listen. You're going to help me bring Manu and Roman down.
Then there's no reason to run.
You have a chance to clean up your life, brother. Now.
Been a while since you called me that.
Manu Esposito. What does he need?
What we all need since the Serbs cut us off.
- What? - Guns.
We can do guns.
What's on your mind? A trap?
Mm.
Yes. We'll get Roman and Manu at the same time.
- You're in? - For sure.
(IN ENGLISH) I should say, since Dragan's hostages break-out,
my boss is no longer happy about these meetings.
- I need help with a new lead. - Are you fucking listening to me?
He's disturbed that the man who hadn't been on our radar for quite a few years
has his file checked and subsequently gets broken from jail.
I'm here has a courtesy. I can't do any more.
You know, I've been talking to Tom about you.
A chance to work with you guys? Is that my motivation?
You people think you can buy anyone, don't you? Fucking unbelievable.
No.
Just those bored working for Interpol for crap money
for the rest of their lives.
Franck?
(IN FRENCH) Still fucking that girl in evidence?
Cut the crap. I'm engaged to her. What are you saying? Fucking? Are you crazy?
- Engaged? You're joking? - No, I've already proposed.
- I've heard weird things about her. - Cut the crap.
What did you hear? Did I ever see you with a woman?
You're calling me a virgin?
- Seriously, I need a favour. - What?
I can't say, it could get you in deep shit.
It could also provide answers on the Belairs' case.
What do you need?
Hello, gentlemen.
You don't recognise us?
I'm sorry, no.
You don't recognise us?
The Rachedis.
Is there somewhere private we can talk?
Why are you here?
We want you back to the gun business. We're stinging some guy.
Who?
Manu. Manu Esposito.
Esposito.
- I left the business six years ago. - It'll be OK.
You know him, he knows you. You made the Serbian connection.
They'll kill me. And they'll work out who you are and kill you.
No, thank you.
Fine. Let's do it differently then. You have no choice.
Tell me you don't see his face every fucking day. Say it.
You killed my friend, motherfucker.
Shoot me if you want, you little shit, and I'll haunt the crap out of you.
Go fuck yourselves.
Fucking let me go, arsehole!
You're not taking him seriously. Because I'm the law.
You think you have a choice?
- (IN ENGLISH) Sir. - Thank you.
WOMAN: Damir has told me I can trust you, Zlatko.
That is why I'm offering you a unique opportunity today.
Your country is one the EU is backing,
and one that Draghi, God bless him, is encouraging.
Airports in Serbia, a high-speed railway line between Moscow and Paris,
gas pipelines in Turkey, a toll bridge in Macedonia.
These are good risks. These are great investments.
But to get into them, I need help. Local partners.
Who's Draghi?
(GUNSHOTS)
We need cash flow in the Balkans.
But taking money out of the EU is complicated.
We have to declare where it's from and where it's going.
You want my money?
The last man I saw like you refused my money.
Whoever he was, I'm pretty sure he wasn't like me.
- But I was told my money was no good. - You're not listening, Zlatko.
My friends and I want money in the East to provide untraceable liquidity
for our activities there.
It can be dirty, it can be clean. We'll launder it. We'll use it.
And in return?
Your, what should we say, 100 million will be transferred into a stake.
Maybe an investment in a small tourist enterprise in Switzerland,
some property in London or maybe a beautiful piece of Scotland.
We own this. The birds get it for 11 months and 29 days a year.
Twice a year, we make them fly for us, and then we shoot them.
But this isn't about money, Zlatko. This is about making you part of something.
Fine words. And why should I trust them?
On this hill are 25 of the most powerful people you'll ever meet.
Together, we can do anything. You don't want to trust us? Fine.
We can find another partner. You won't find another us.
(IN SERBIAN) Wait. Wait.
(PHONE RINGS)
- Yes? - ADNAN: They've found me.
Are you sure?
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
I saw Milomir. They've found me, Milan.
(PHONE RINGS)
Did you give the address to anyone?
(MUFFLED GROANS)
Only to Nina.
Adnan...
She said she might come. What else could I do?
Leave her there? What do I do?
Get moving, get out of there.
- Move. You can do it. - Milan...
- I'm sorry, this is my fault. - Milan.
(GUN COCKS)
(GRUNTS)
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
(PHONE RINGS)
- Yes. - MAN: Why didn't you pick up?
- I thought I'd found him. - Did you?
No. Say, what's going on?
How fast can one get a hold of 100 million euros?
- (IN FRENCH) Be careful with that. - Thank you, Franck.
(ENGINE STARTS)
(PHONE VIBRATES)
(IN ENGLISH) Yeah?
I found the man with the dog from the CCTV. Matthias Grunnert, Austrian.
I've got a previous for vehicular theft.
- Have you got an address? - Heb in Vienna.
- You better come good on this job. - I will.
- (IN FRENCH) So, did your boss bite? - Have you got the guns?
KHALIL: Five guns. We'll tell him these are samples.
- You rock, bro. - So, did he bite?
- So, did he bite or what? - It'll work. Don't worry.
Is he ready? Are you ready?
Yes?
Hmm.
Will you be alright?
It'll work out. Don't worry.
(ENGINE STARTS)
(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)
(IN ENGLISH) Good to see you, my friend.
- You know Milan? - Yeah, I remember Milan.
I should shoot you.
And I won't.
I could.
But I won't.
Let's get you home.
(IN FRENCH) Shall we go to a restaurant tonight?
Why?
I'd like to buy you dinner to celebrate.
The IGS, the case closed. To make peace, you know.
(SIGHS)
Listen...
I know I need to learn to work with you.
Hmm.
Alright.
- I'll see you later. - Yes.
(PANTS)
(IN ENGLISH) We will camp here and cross the border at dawn.
(PHONE LINE RINGS)
WOMAN: Belmaire Insurance.
- Hi, it's me. - Yes?
I can't get hold of Tom. Do you know where he is?
He's at the Belgrade investment meeting.
- Right. Will you tell him I called? - Sure.
(FIRE CRACKLES)
(SNORES GENTLY)
(IN SERBIAN) Thank you, Milan.
(SIGHS)
Zlatko can't grasp the principles of the Panthers.
He seems incapable of it.
He hasn't fought in the war, like we have.
That's not a good thing.
They were the best.
Do you know how often they got Arkan out of jail?
Three times.
Three.
Those were good times.
We were the Tigers.
Now, we're the Panthers.
We were not afraid of anything.
What Zlatko wants to do is shit. Shit.
There aren't any real Panthers left.
You were one once. You.
And you still are. The last one of us.
And us? We're like the walking dead.
So why the hell did I save you, then?
Maybe because that's how you are.
You've always been like that.
Always.
We're alike, you and I.
Maybe we can still win that battle, but...
It's over for us. It's over.
We are not alike. I've always been your beast.
Everything I've done, I've done to survive.
Maybe it's over for you. Not for me.
- (IN ENGLISH) Hello. How are you? - Hi. Fine.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER IN SERBIAN)
- (IN ENGLISH) Nice place. - It's safe. And you like safe.
You brought me to your world. I welcome you to mine.
Your 100 million euros.
You should count it.
(RAPID GUNSHOTS)
(IN SERBIAN) Did he follow you because he thought you were friends?
What does 'friends' mean? What's that supposed to be?
He's bunked off!
Adnan, listen! Everything has gone tits-up. I'm picking you up, yeah?
You should call Zlatko.
(DANCE MUSIC BLARES)
- (IN SERBIAN) See that big guy there? - Yes.
He is one of the directors of the World Bank.
- And that one over there... - The Chinese man?
Yeah. He owns the Cayman Islands.
He's trying to get into the natural gas business.
- His women are all first class. - Whores?
Do you see the coloured wristbands?
So does that make them whores?
No, it just makes them easier to identify.
The pink ones are for VIPs only.
The yellow ones are for special friends, and the blue means the hunt is on.
I see. An organised society. I could get used to that.
ZLATKO: They even keep an account of how often they fuck.
American and Chinese money, German rules.
And Germans love rules more than their own mothers.
- I'm yellow and you are blue. - (CHUCKLES)
It's Jamezdin.
- Milan is still alive. - Tell your boys to seize Adnan.
Let's stay a while longer.
Come. Let's find one for you.
MOKHTAR: (IN FRENCH) Are you sweating?
Can you promise me I'm not going to die in there?
(SCOFFS)
You bet I'm sweating.
He has it all planned.
He's going to disarm Manu and arrest Roman.
Then we're going to disappear into the night.
Your brother's bullshit is going to get us killed.
Don't worry. I'll do it.
(ENGINE STARTS)
ROMAN: One day, my father sat on a bankruptcy case.
A guy who manufactured washing machine parts.
The biggest firm he supplied went out of business.
So, he explained all this to my father, and my father said:
It's unfortunate, but I can't prevent the foreclosure.
It was the early '70s.
There were no metal detectors in courts back then.
So, the guy stands up in the court room, takes out a gun
and shoots himself in the mouth, in front of my father.
Fuck.
What's your point?
I mean, my father was helpless, but we can do something.
Marseille is a shithole.
Guys fight each other. We go in, and they fight us, too.
It only gets worse. More and more guns. It's a kind of vicious cycle.
If we want to break it, we have to change our methods radically.
I disagree.
We need to enforce the law harder. Make sure they break before we do.
Hmm. No, it's not a battle of good against evil.
It's a choice between bad and not quite as bad.
And how does bad and not quite as bad work?
Your peace offer, that touches me.
But the war you want to wage will produce many victims and few results.
You don't have any strategy. You didn't think it through.
We need to encourage a single power. Only one.
One boss, who we can all respect and with whom we can talk.
For that, we need to work together.
(PHONE VIBRATES)
It's the station.
Yes?
Where?
I'm with Roman. We'll hurry.
Gun exchange.
We'll meet you there. OK.
Let's go.
No. You go. I've nothing to do there.
I know justice isn't all black and white.
But what about that? We give up?
- No, you go. - I don't want to go by myself.
I have had a few too many.
Are you good to drive?
Yes, I am.
Thanks.
This is Commissioner Rachedi. Do we have an ETA on the commandos?
MAN ON RADIO: 30 minutes, Commissioner.
There are only three of them.
- We have to go. - No, we wait. That's an order.
- I'm going. - Khalil... Fuck.
Where are they from?
- Does it matter? - Of course it matters.
Well?
Serbia?
Who is your contact?
What are you looking at him for?
If he told you I'm nervous, he's right.
They're police knock-offs. I was tipped they wanted to destroy them.
There are 200. That's all I've got.
If you want them, I'll give you a good price.
Don't move. Drop the weapons. Don't move.
Drop it.
- I don't understand. ls he one of us? - Us?
- What do you mean "us"? - Let's calm down.
Let's talk and sort this out, so we can all go home.
- Drop it. - No. There's no way out.
(RAPID GUNSHOTS)
Fuck.
Shit.
Take the bag.
Take the guns. Make them disappear.
Hurry, hurry.
(SIRENS WAIL)
Here.
(MUSIC BLARES)
(IN ENGLISH) Hello. May I help you?
I'm looking for a colleague of mine. He's called Tom Kandle.
- Just a moment. - Right.
(IN FRENCH) There is a lady who wants to talk to Tom Kandle.
(PIGS GRUNT)
(IN ENGLISH) I believe I left you investigating expensive trainers.
Tom, I've been trying to call you.
Now, why might someone investigating trainers
find themselves at a high-class ball in Belgrade?
Tom, I called the office, and they told me where you were.
You were right.
It's connected, the airport and the diamonds.
Oh, so you're not investigating trainers.
You're investigating diamonds, which I expressly asked you not to do.
Tom...
Guillaume Von Reeth. He's connected. OK? To the airport and to the diamonds.
Maybe via Zlatko Mladic.
This links your associates with stolen jewels and the murder of a child.
Tom, you need out of this.
The due-diligence stage of my contract is over, I'm afraid.
- What? - You were in the gutter
at the end of the war, and I picked you up.
And I didn't do it because I pitied you.
I didn't do it out of any sense of humanity.
I didn't even do it as a favour for your father.
I did it because I believed that you had a good brain
and that you'd learn to understand
the complications involved in hard decisions.
But you don't... understand anything.
And as for your lack of judgment,
well, that is one reason of many why you are now fired!
What?
You're fired.
- (IN FRENCH) What happened? - Roman. He's dead.
He did what he could.
If I was part of anything, I got into it for you.
Don't worry. You're safe.
We got them.
We're almost there, Franck.
It's the beginning of the end.
I'm parked over there.
(ENGINE STARTS)
- (IN SERBIAN) Milan, they're here. - Hang in there, I'll be right there.
I'm in this house that they've bombed, Fürst-Milos-Straße, or what's it called.
I'm coming. I won't let you down.
(IN FRENCH) Fuck.
- It wasn't supposed to go like that. - I know.
What can you do about it now? We've done all we can.
- Let's get you out of Marseille. - No, that won't work.
It will be OK.
Hey, hey, hey, I've got friends outside the city.
I can deliver. Let me do it.
Someone saw us together.
Don't worry. They trust me.
They made me acting head of PJ. You have nothing to fear. You're safe.
Didn't you hear me? Someone saw us. You and me.
You think they'll come after me? Let them. Let them!
When you arrived back in Marseille, everyone wondered if I could be trusted.
If I go, it'll only confirm the worst.
You, Mum, Samira, they'll come for all of you.
We get the family out, and then we prepare.
For what?
War.
Listen, they're coming for us.
