The Boy and The Wall
A Mexican-Spanish Co-production
Exterior scenes filmed in the city of Berlin
"Since the early hours of that Sunday,"
"13th of August, 1961,"
Hi!
Wait.
"work continues without interruption"
"The old concrete barriers, and the barbed wire fences,"
"are substituted by slabs and cement,"
"Along the borders of all sectors,"
"and the East Berlin zone."
"This work is being carried under the supervision of the regular army,"
"and police, who hermetically seal the western part of the city,"
"where the wall has already been completed."
"Meanwhile, in the heart of Berlin,"
"In the streets that mark the border between West and East,"
"incidents are arising that require the involvement of public services."
"the homes that border the the sectors,"
"are demolished to widen no-man's land."
I'm coming!
"The wall, still allows some passage in the more remote sectors of the city."
"the wall has been going up, since August 13th, day by day,"
"Until it separates East Berlin, from West Berlin."
"This cordon separates it from the rest of East Germany."
"until it becomes an island."
"in the background of this panoramic shot,"
"you can discern the path of the wall."
She will come tomorrow, I promise.
Don't sell it, you won't forget?
Mom will buy it for me.
Yes, mom will buy it one of these days, you have told me many times already!
Say, too many people can see it there, why not put it in the back?
If you don't leave right now, I will sell it, understand?
Ok
Don't come back late.
I won't
Dieter?
Dieter?
Its that...I was quite bored, Mother.
Dieter?
Go wash your hands.
We keep on saving and...in four years we can buy a house.
Does it make you happy?
Lots.
What is wrong?
Nothing,
we both work,
we live in the oldest house in the neighborhood.
All is going very well.
Why must you talk like that?
All of your co-workers live better than we do!
Plenty of luxury,sure,cars,yes, but in a savings account, nothing!
Not one Mark!
One must save!
My co-workers will never own a home, I will.
That is the difference!
Money must be enjoyed in the present.
A house, in four years,
and why not a palace in one hundred?
it would be better, don't you agree?
You speak like a woman!
and you like a man!
Mom?
I washed them.
Wash them again.
But I washed them well!
May I go outside and play?
You have not had your pudding yet.
I...I don't feel like it today.
that...that was my piece.
To bed then?
Sure, now I am grounded.
but that was my piece!
We should go to bed as well.
May I help you?
No...
you rest.
I will wait.
I am done.
I am going to bed.
I am on my way.
tonite?
No.
What did you tell me yesterday?
I don't remember.
You said tomorrow.
I did?
You did.
I know what your problem is.
What is it?
You are scared.
Let go!
Don't look at that.
It's midnight.
You know,
I was dancing, all night long.
And what where you dancing?
Twist.
I passed the exam.
I am now a typist.
Great!
I am writing to your mother.
I still cannot believe that we are here,
and she is over there.
And we cannot return.
Karen,
this won't last.
"Private car park, only for tenants"
"Flats for sale"
the terrace is thirty three square metres.
completely fenced off,
Clean air and sunshine, all day.
Can one ask for more?
From here, and no where else, you will have the most marvelous views of Berlin.
Will you be purchasing outright?
Naturally.
Naturally!
But I have not yet saved that amount.
That is no problem,
you may purchase, with a down payment.
Purchase in installments?
Payments, interest, closing costs?
I wont have it, I do not purchase in installments.
I will return when I have the complete amount.
When?
If you can wait, four years.
"Dalman Furniture"
Very well, yes sir, I will send it to your home.
Thank you.
Can you give me the ball?
Can you give me the money?
Sure.
This won't do.
You are missing eleven Marks.
Can you discount them?
Sure you can.
That won't do.
If you discount them, I will give you half of this.
Look, if you like, I will give you all of it.
I can't chew.
The gum would get stuck, understand?
Good morning.
Good morning, Madame.
What toys do you have, for boys.
Well...Mecano, puzzles, a tricycle, lorries, breakdown lorries...
Hey you!
How do you do that?
and that ball!
How much is it?
Twelve Marks.
Very well, I will buy it.
Apologies, now I remember, the ball has been sold, I am sorry.
I will find something else.
I was sure he would have liked the ball.
Now I don't know what to buy him.
Hey you, this is for you, a gift!
Bye!
What are you looking out for?
The stork that will deliver my baby brother,
and it will come in trough the window.
It's coming from heaven.
Frida!
Frida, come here, your baby brother is here!
Come!
Here you go, Mr. Dalman.
Oh, thanks.
Mr Schmidt, why not buy the ball?
What ball?
That one.
Your wife has not picked it up.
My wife?
Yes, Dieter says she will buy it for him,
so I have not sold it.
How much is it?
Twelve Marks.
It's absurd, twelve Marks for a used ball?
Besides, it's not right for his age.
He does not feel the same.
He visits every day.
Oh, and you encourage him to purchase it, right?
What are you insinuating?
Besides, it is your trade, to make sales.
The lad and I are friends.
but he has been decieving me.
No one will buy him the ball, right?
And for what reason?
It is not his birthday, and it is not Christmass time.
There is no motive for it.
You are quite right, but, perhaps I feel diferently.
What would you expect, he gave me half a stick of gum today.
Mom?
One can go in trough a closed window, right?
What kind of a question, that is why you close them, so no one comes in.
Well, It happened, I swear it.
That just can't be,
if the window was closed, it can't be.
It came in at Frida's house, I saw it.
Who?
The stork that brought Frida's baby brother.
It came in trough the smoke stack.
It did not come in trough the smoke stack, it would not fit!
Well...it came in some other way, not trough the window.
You did well in school, rigth?
Here.
You lied and tried to buy something without my permission, understand?
Yes, may I play with it now?
Go on.
But come back soon for dinner.
Yes mom.
Why did you tell him that?
I get careless, and he will make me buy him a television.
In any case, thank you.
It was only twelve Marks.
Gunther?
I was thinking of the boy.
He is always alone.
And what can we do?
I too grew up alone, he will manage.
I want to have another child, Gunther.
What!
I said I want another child!
Nonsense!
As much as children cost!
It is not polite to eavesdrop on grownups.
Is it true, that children cost much?
Not that much.
but they do have a cost.
Go to sleep.
You have a want for no one, not even your son!
What foolishness is this!
He was not born according to your schedule, right?
You are getting things wrong.
I have never said I did not want my son.
What I said...
What you said, is that he should have been born five years later.
That way we would have saved more, and we would have our own house.
And what's wrong with that?
But what, what is wrong with you?
What do you want, to have ten children?
I think its a fine idea.
We will have them, sure, in due time.
Come to bed.
If we wait to have a child,
until you can give it everything it needs,
you will not be able to.
Mind what you say.
I am tired.
Tired of everything!
I tell you the boy is lonely,
and all you say is that he must learn that life is hard.
You may not care, but listen.
Your son does not love you.
he is scared of you.
You are quite distressed tonight, it will be best to talk tomorrow.
"In Memoriam"
"Worksite"
"You are leaving the American Sector"
Hey you, where are you going!
let me go, I have to get my ball back!
It fell over there!
Germans must cross trough the English sector, and you are German.
You let me trough, or I will get a rock and kill you!
Ok, kill me then, but you still cant cross, I will not let you, understand?
Come on, let me cross.
Tell me, where were you born?
If I tell you I can cross?
You will let me right?
Sure.
I was born over there.
You are from Berlin, so you cannot cross into Berlin.
Enough, get out of here already, you hear me, go!
I will find the biggest rock, the biggest one!
Dieter, where is he?
He is not here?
He did not go with you?
No!
How can you not know the whereabouts of your own son!
And you, do you know!
Dieter!
Where does he play?
I don't know!
Dieter!
Dieter!
What happened to you?
It rained...and...I put myself out to dry.
Are you cold?
No...
Can I borrow it?
What?
Your cap.
The men had a tarp exended, but he landed outside of it.
He jumped from the fourth floor.
From the fourth?
Poor lad!
Move aside please.
Hey!
Hey, you!
Come here!
I'm over here!
Come!
Hi!
Give me the ball!
What ball?
What ball? What ball! that one! Its mine!
No way.
This one is mine.
Yours? I lost it the other day, and you found it!
You lost my ball?
Yes, now give it to me, or I knock down this wall and punch you in the eye!
What's your name?
And what do you care, give it to me!
No.
You sow!
Bendy legs! Donkey nosed!Bendy legs!
Say!
Say...
I will trade you the ball, for a much better toy.
What is it?
It's Hans, a mouse that runs about, shakes its tail, and has red eyes!
I don't like mice, but let me see it.
Put out your hand.
Give me the ball, or I break your arm!
Give it to me!
Look, you don't have a donkey's nose.
I swear.
You do have bendy legs tough, but not that much.
Look, I will lend you my ball, until tomorrow.
Ok, you bite me then.
Why aren't you biting, bite me!
You lend me the ball until tomorrow?
If you don't wear it out, sure!
I won't
But don't tell my dad, he might kill me.
I will tell no one.
What is your name?
Dieter, and yours?
Martha.
But I am bigger than you.
Well then, I must be going, good bye.
I won't bite your arm again, I swear it!
Mom, can I ride with you?
sure.
You played a lot?
I did.
May I get a kiss, mommie?
Leave me alone, will you!
Smoke?
Can I visit you tonight?
What do you think?
I think yes.
I think not!
Martha, look at me, would you like me for a dad?
You see, she agrees.
So now you know it.
Tonight, a good goulash and four bottles of beer.
I will bring the rest.
You will give in.
You will give in!
Who will give in, mommie?
Nobody.
He wants to marry me.
Then, why did you burn him?
I don't know.
He might be right, that gorilla.
It's quite queer.
Why did he not ask us to buy him the ball?
He asked me.
He asked you?
Yes.
And why did you not buy it for him?
I guess because of you.
Because of me, what foolishness.
What would you have said coming home and seeing the ball?
Nothing, what was I to say?
What, you think I do not understand things?
You tell me, the boy wants a ball, and I say fine.
Why must you lie?
You know you would have cried out.
Well then, the boy is scared of me, you have told me,
and so are you, is it not so?
If you feel that way, why are you with me?
I am not scared of you, Gunther.
The only thing I want is... that you get close to him.
That you play with him.
But...you let me out afterwards, right?
If you win, I will.
Fine.
How many times must I tell you, you cannot make that move.
And you can, right?
Neither can I.
No, Dieter, no, not that way.
If you want to move the knight, you must move him here,
here, or here.
And you can't right, sure.
I can as well.
You put that there, and I said nothing.
In that case, check mate!
It will be best for us to play something else.
Go on. bring over the football.
The ball?
Look, I will give it back to you, see.
And now, since I won, may I go?
Go on.
You can't say I did not try.
Gum?
Where have you been?
At...a dance.
Dad...
I don't know.
Maybe...the fault is not entirely your own.
Your mother is not here.
Are you going to marry him?
The truth.
You love him?
No...
Then...why?
You are seventeen.
When we got married, your mother was twenty three.
And she had kept herself for me.
Go on...
Hans says...cross your eyes.
Hans says...stick out your tongue.
Hans says...look ugly.
No, not like that.
Hans says you should look uglier.
At the count of one,
two,
three!
You like it?
It's not bad.
Say, if I bring you money, will you buy me a ball like yours?
Sure.
How much are they?
Twelve Marks, do you have them?
I do.
Now it's your turn.
Hans says that...I stick this straw in your ear.
No way!
Hans says I must.
It't that I am quite tickleish.
Hans says for me to stick this straw in your ear.
Fine!
Halt!
Halt!
You allowed him to escape.
Hey!
I am here!
What a racket!
What's wrong?
What happens if a sentry from over there, let's someone escape?
That lot?
That lot let no one escape.
They execute them.
But if one would?
Lifetime inprisonment.
Can we go over to my house?
Would you like to spend with me, the entire night?
Yes.
Did I startle you?
No, did I startle you?
You did.
You know, I rode on the tractor with my mom.
On a tractor?
Yes, and she let me put my hand on the steering wheel.
Do they let you do that?
Me? my dad takes me on the car, he buys me christmass trees,
he buys me ducks, cats, and mice.
And if I ask for money, he gives it to me.
How about that.
And everyday he goes to the movies, and takes me along.
And you are never alone?
Never.
And you are?
I am, almost always.
At night?
At night? no.
No, not at night, I sleep in her bed, and it gets so stuffy.
And she tells you bedtime stories?
Lots of them.
Do you know the one about Red Riding Hood?
I do.
And the Dwarf and the three hairs of the devil?
I do.
If you want to be my friend, you must make a promise.
What kind of promise?
Promise!
I swear I will be Martha's friend forever.
I swear to be Dieter's friend forever.
I swear I will come to the hole, everyday.
I swear...and what if I am grounded?
Then you don't come, but swear anyway.
I swear it!
And I swear it even more!
and I swear it too.
and now we are friends of friends.
We are, lots and lots.
And the ball? did you wear it out a lot?
No, look.
Here, so you can buy me one.
Ok then.
Throw it back, so yours can be the same.
Here you go!
You wait right here, right?
I will.
I swear that Frida is uglier than you are.
I will buy from you another ball, like this one.
it will not be easy.
It's that...its for my girlfriend!
But, if you have money, tomorrow I can.
You can't today?
It is too late today.
I told her today!
Here, take this.
Who gave you this money?
She did.
Who is she?
Martha
Go get her, and she will get her ball.
She won't fit trought the h....
Besides, she is sick, she ate too many figs.
Where is she?
Tell me, does she not want that ball?
You swear you won't tell my dad?
And why must I swear!
Because I will not tell you if you don't?
Swear it!
Ok then, I swear it.
Martha lives on the other side of the wall.
Mr. Gunther Schmidt?
One moment, please.
Listen to me well,
The barbed wire must pass trough here,
and we must reinforce this section of the wall.
Thanks.
What is the matter.
He made him swear he would tell me nothing.
He made him swear it.
Swear what?
You are right, my son does not love me.
He is afraid of me.
Martha!
Dieter!
Martha!
Martha!
Martha!
Martha!
Dieter!
I am here!
I am here!
I am here!
I will give you my ball!
Tomorrow we will open another hole,
I promise!
