Too Tired to Hate (1995) - full transcript

This modern western depicting juvenile crime takes as its theme the struggle of an individual against a vicious circle of violence. The spiral of violence and revenge is only broken when one person conquers himself and refuses to continue the vendetta. Siim, a 14-year old who grew up in the streets, is only spared the violence because he has a natural antipathy to it. Ultimately he too is caught up in the fighting when he tries to save money for his girlfriend's Christmas gift and the cash is stolen.

Dizzy bitch !

Those ladies, oh, those ladies.

And without 'em
the world would be so dull ...

What the hell do you ...

What do you want ?

Hello.

lf you want the rent,
l'm very sick person ...

My name is Merike.

l don't know if Siim has
told you that we are ...

So what ?

l want to know what happened.
lt's really important.



l went to the prison
but l didn't get to see him.

They said we should
go there together.

l understand, but right now ...

Well, come in then.

Get up boys, line up !

From now on there'll be
an inspection every day.

And at night,
if necessary. Clear ?

Now get to sleep.

You saw what can happen.

All kinds of accidents.

Avalanche warnings have
been issued in Austria today -

due to severe winds
and weather conditions.

Heavy snow-fall in Bosnia has
caused a temporary cease-fire ...

Hey guys, the mail came.



There's a stranger's letter here.

Hey, Pete, go flush this down.

Tubby ...

Bite your elbow,
or you don't get your letter.

Bite it ! Bite harder !
- l can't.

Climb up on the cupboard.
- Stand on one leg, you jerk.

Pete, hand out the rest of them.

Hey, l really am sorry.

Damn it, l couldn't help it.

The darndest thing happened.
Pete asked for some paper.

He wanted to take a crap.

lt must have been your letter.

Come on, punch me out.

Hit me !

Hey, Pump !

Come and blow on this !

lt's gone, sucker.
- Give it back.

You really think l would ?

l thought l wouldn't mention it.
A girl came by one day, Merike.

She wanted to come with me to
see you. Never saw her again.

One day, l was asked if you
knew that dead girl's brother.

He hit Merike with the car.
They say she's in the hospital.

l firigured it was just
a crazy coincidence.

Go get Juku.
l have something for him.

Well, you know ...
what you're risking

Got something to say ?

Listen to me
when l'm talking to you.

Come out.

l hope a week was
enough time for reflection.

But if something new comes up -

don't forget your file
will be re-evaluated.

Hit him ! Hit him !

Choke him !
- Break his fucking neck !

Hit him ! With the head !

Stand up !

Smash him against the wall !

Your fucking maggot !

Dead shit !

Hit him ! Hit him !

Make the sissy cry !

Wake up,

Smash his teeth in !

Punch his lights out !

What are you staring at ?

Twist, sucker !

Don't give up !

Don't let him !

Slit his throat !
- Stab him !

Stab him ! Stab him !

Stab, damn it !
What are you waiting for ?

Come out !

Up against the wall.
Hands up !

Spread your legs !

Put out your hands !

Up for a new inquest.

An extra year
and back here again.

What monkey business
are you up to ?

What meaning is there in that ?

Oh, well,
it's none of my business.

Don't poke your eye out.

Here, take this !

Thanks.

Thanks, thanks.

But there really ought to
be some meaning in it.

Hi !

Go away.

Why ?

Do you even know
who you are yourself ?

Your kind are all crazy -

murderers, sadists !

You bastard !

Look at what you've done to me !

See what l look like !

Just look at me !

Do you want me to be also buried
next to that other girl at Leesi ?

ls that what you want ?
But l don't !

Can't you see, l can't
stand it any more ! l can't !

lf you only knew -

how much l've been through.

Why did this have to happen to us ?

The whole time ...

Just anxiety and grief ...

Because of you, too, Siim.

l just can't go on like this.

l feel like l'm falling
into bits and pieces.

lt's so painful.

lf you really love me,
go away.

Yeah.

Do you even know
who you are yourself ?

Your kind are all crazy.

Murderers, sadists !

You bastard!

Look at what you've done to me !

See what l look like !
Just look at me !

Do you want me to be also buried
next to that other girl at Leesi ?

ls that what you want ?

Help me !

Forgive me ...

Forgive me ...

lf we get out of here -

don't forget we have
something to settle.

l'm tired.

No, l'm tired of everything.

Kill me now if you want to.

We have to finish it off.

Hurry up, damn it !
