König der Diebe aka King of Thieves
Those are from the film called König der Diebe aka King of Thieves (Slovakia, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Netherlands, Austria, Belgium, Germany, France 2003) 1. Long-haired enforcer M/m Marcel the "champion," the best of the child thieves, twenty lashes of a whip, uknown position, in the circus ring, off-screen. Only the sounds of the whipping can be heard. Barbu, the best friend of the boy currently being punished hears the sounds from outside. The sentence is handed down by Caruso, the gang boss.
The children's total take for the day is below the set limit. Not even two grand… All under the limit. Caruso blames Marcel, because as the "champion" he is responsible, and because he has betrayed his trust. The boys have been stashing part of the loot for themselves, hiding it in their shoes, which comes to light during the inspection.
2. The gang boss Caruso M/M his subordinate, the long-haired enforcer, brutal, indiscriminate whipping, position of thrashing and writhing on the ground outside, in front of his accomplice.
He with his accomplice failed to guard Barbu, who ran off with Caruso's money.
3. Caruso M/m Barbu, swishing of the whip, position of dodging the whip while moving across the circus arena floor.
Barbu stole Caruso's money and ran away. This whipping is for robbing the boss and trying to escape.
After Barbu is caught and brought back to the circus, Caruso personally whips him in the ring under the hanging light. The whipping is interrupted by Bianca (Marcel's shaven-headed sister), who first shouts "Stop it!" from the darkness, and when Caruso yells "Piss off! Get lost!", she aims a pistol at him and fires, hitting Caruso in the hand and saving Barbu.
The protagonist is Barbu, a ten-year-old Ukrainian boy living in a poor, remote settlement. Caruso, a former circus performer bringing a whiff of the vast, distant world, arrives in the settlement, buys the boy from his parents, and promises him a successful circus career. At his insistence, he also buys his older sister, Mimma, and smuggles both children into Berlin. There, however, he secretly hands the girl over to a brothel and initiates Barbu into the secrets of theft and thievery. A peculiar bond develops between the man and the boy. At first, Barbu admires Caruso and trusts him blindly. In turn, the former circus man sees the dark-eyed boy as the son he never had, and introduces him to his partner, Júlia, who was deeply scarred by an old accident under the big top. Suppressed, long-forgotten emotions and dreams mingle into the ruthless machinery of child trafficking...
