Little White Dove (1973) - full transcript

A young working class girl falls in love with an upper class boy who is part of the plot to assassinate General Schneider, head of the Chilean Army. Set in the frenzied period after Salvador Allende's election as president of Chile, it documents the political and social tensions created by the electoral success of a Marxist-led coalition, an unheard of event in world politics.

LITTLE WHITE DOVE

a film by
RAÚL RUIZ

based on the novel "Little White Dove"
by Enrique Lafourcade

The production of this film
was completed in 1973.

For more than 17 years,
the negatives remained hidden away.

Good afternoon, Mireya.

There are impossibilities.

An appointment with history.

The avengers.



There's no turning back.

This is progress.

The 20th century.

Chile in view.

Help me out, pal!

We beg you to excuse this interruption.

Little window of remembrance.

7,500 for kidney beans!

Tasty piglets for an entire week!

The hour of truth.

Those wretches raped her
on Fifth Avenue,

while the others were sleeping.

I'm a spy.

The Colo-Colo is eternal.

For the love of Natasha

and for the love of love,

How much do you know?

It will happen soon in this room.

In this room.
In this room.

Good evening, Santiago.

The newspapers of the world are

preoccupied

with this long and narrow

strip of land.

I met him at the festival
at Los Dominicos.

A festival in the district Piedra Roja
where there were only hippies.

His name was Juan Carlos.
He took us there and left,

but it bothered me,
because I was starting to like him.

I saw him again

and he asked me if I would come
to his place, he was going downtown.

I agreed and went with him.

But then he changed his mind and
asked if I wanted to go to the beach.

I said I agreed,
but first we went to his place.

He had a tea and I drank a hot coffee.
We ate pancakes with syrup.

Together we drove to the beach.

He got out of the car
and told me to undress.

I undressed and we took a swim.

After that we got to the beach,

we sat together and talked a lot.

It went too fast and I got scared.

We got to the beach, he got out of
the car and told me to undress.

I was ashamed because
I had torn clothes and stuff.

He by contrast
had such beautiful clothes.

But he got naked and
went towards the beach.

I realized he wasn't even looking at me.

I got naked and followed him
and we went bathing.

Then we got out of the water
and sat down for a while.

We agreed quite a bit. That you
should go to the beach when you like.

Shouldn't be ashamed
of being naked.

That they should get married.

Poor people to rich,
black people to white.

I told him I didn't live
with my parents.

He asked me where I studied
and I told him where I studied.

Told me to undress.

He asked me stuff.
Wanted to know about my father.

I told him my dad had
built the Tajamar towers.

He asked me if he was an architect,
I told him he was a builder.

That he had fallen and died
and that now I had a stepfather.

On a certain occasion, a girl met a man.

She was young and very poor,
he was rich and handsome.

They liked each other
and hung out together.

He took her to the beach, she
accepted and they went over there.

There they both got undressed
and went into the water.

He seemed to be different.

Maybe that's why
she felt attracted to him.

Many things happened.

They were both falling in love.

And then they went to his house.

Make yourself at home!
There's no one here.

I'll take a shower, then drive you home.

- I can go on my own.
- No, I'll drive you.

- But I can go alone.
- Don't think about it, I'll drive you.

Then we went to Santiago.
At 2 pm.

He leaves me alone and goes off.

He lies down, I go to see him.

And since I see him lying down,
I leave.

His eyes were filled

with tears.

He turned his head

and was watching them.

Miss, don't bother him.
He's sleeping.

Please leave this way.

But that's what you want to do.

That's monstrous!

No, Doctor,
it's divine justice.

But... that woman was married,
before God and the law!

My mom, as you know, is an alcoholic

and doesn't have control over her acts,
so I won't blame her,

as she's an alcoholic,
and doesn't know what she's doing.

But as for my godmother, I will
never forgive her for what she did.

She went to tell my mom

that she shouldn't wait
for me on that road.

She said that nothing bad
could happen to me, as bad news

is always known beforehand.

So I will never forgive my godmother,
even though she's very good to me.

I actually love them all,
despite what she did to me.

Open the door!

- You won't go anywhere!
- Yes I'm leaving, godmother!

- You won't go anywhere!
- Yes, I'll go!

- Oh dear!
- What?

Don't go anywhere!

Yes, I'm going!

- Another day would be better.
- I'm going today!

- Don't go, dear!
- Yes I'm going!

Eclair, bicycle,

Clot...

Cl...

It's not true, my dove

I will wait for you on every road.

Hurry up, go to the chapel.

And my heart will rejoice.

- Can I come in?
- Yes.

- Let's get there!
- Come out!

It's alright.

We're seeing it.

There are many ways to fix this
if you ask permission,

respectfully, honoring your parents.

Excuse me!

The conjecture is,

in harmony with all,

let's see.
If not there's war.

And war is asked for by
whoever wages it.

Let's see, my dear.

You want to go out? Go out.

But with respect and dignity!

Yes that's what's important,
respect and dignity. Isn't it?

If you don't want to ask for
permission, don't ask for it.

Nobody is telling you to ask for it,
alright?

The most important thing...
The most important thing is to behave.

To behave well.

Not only do you have to behave.
Not only does the little child have to,

but also the elders, the men,
the women and the children.

Calm down!

Don Fernando paid a bandit
to kill Maria Isabel.

The bandit made a mistake
and killed his wife.

Now both of them are in jail.

Don Fernando was not at home
when his wife died.

He had gone to Europe
to receive his inheritance.

In Europe Don Fernando realized that

he was deeply in love with Maria Isabel.

Disgrace

Each day more disgrace

Maria Isabel has suffered a lot.

She lost her husband
and her child.

She has been ruined
and is penniless.

Now he's in prison.

But whilst we love each other
there will be no anguish

We can look at each other
and even get used to

the incomprehension

They will never know that destiny

is capable of bringing us together

The world has turned us into

a vile mirror

And now we reflect on

faraway disgrace

First he kisses me,

and I tell him that he shouldn't.
That we shouldn't get together.

And he... No, rather I tell him
I don't want him as my boyfriend,

that he should stay as my friend.

No. I tell him I want to belong to him
and he can do whatever he wants with me.

No, I'll tell him
I don't want to see him ever again.

Never, never, never again.

Why do they reject you?
What do they have that you don't?

There's no comparison with my folk.
Mine are more open, more sincere.

Here everything is false,
totally false.

If one wants to belong to the group,
one has to pretend.

- You need to learn and get used to it.
- But how?

There are good
and bad everywhere.

It's too hard to find good
people in these surroundings.

No, it's not so hard.

Incredible.

Right.

Listen. It's incredible.

- Look at this!
- Girl!

Look how that one looks!

And that one!

Frantic!

There are lots of them!

It's quite effective.

It's really a pity.

Listen, girl.

Yes, it's been a while.

- Well...
- Hello!

How are you?

Hi.

I've got five minutes.

- Then I need to get back.
- I see.

- Are you buying this one?
- Yes.

His name is Juan Carlos.

Juan Carlos.

Juan Carlos is with Maria.

I can't believe it.

They're a couple.

Yes?

Love is something one feels

which is why we give our soul and life

to the one we love.
For love is a gift.

Over there in the oven
the bread is being heated.

The one who climbs a tree

will cast a huge shadow.

It is because of the shadow,
my daughter,

that they say that love is blind.

Don't forget, my daughter,

that the habit doesn't make the monk.

Always do good,
without considering who may benefit.

Over there in the oven,
the bread is being heated.

Finally my godmother gives me permission.
Juan Carlos takes me to the store.

He introduces me to many people.

Everyone is cool, especially his sister
who asks me a lot of stuff.

Great conversation.

She owns a boutique and
is Juan Carlos's sister.

Sit down!

Tell me, you met him a long time ago?

No, actually relatively recently.
10 days ago, more or less.

- And where did you meet him?
- At a Dominican festival.

- What kind of festival?
- Music.

- I have many memories
regarding that festival. - What kind?

Memories of a movie
called Woodstock.

Ah, is that where Joan Baez sang?
And Jimi Hendrix and all those people?

Exactly. Many memories.

- Memories of what?
- Memories of Juan Carlos.

- But why?
- I don't know.

Juan Carlos talks to me
a lot about Jimi Hendrix.

Yes, he seems to like him.

And what do you do?

I study.

- What course are you on?
- 4th semester courses.

- You're almost done.
- Yeah I'm almost done.

Who do you live with?
Your dad or...?

I don't have a dad,
I have a stepfather.

- And what does your stepfather do?
- He had a taxi but he sold it.

- What for? - To drink the money.
- But what do you do for a living at home?

They are in extreme poverty,
no, I live with my godmother.

She pays for my studies and all,
she works a lot.

- Do you live only with her?
- Yes, only us.

- And what does she do for a living?
- She does some sewing and stuff.

- She gets along well.
- Of course.

- And what do you plan to do when
you're older? - I think of working.

What at? Anything, so that I can help my
godmother, like any girl would do.

You can work with her, sewing clothes?

No, I'd like to work in something that'd give

more money.
So she doesn't have to work.

But don't you think
you need to study for that?

I don't know, maybe do a quick course,
something like that..

And tell me something,
have you known Juan Carlos long?

Was this festival
a long time ago, a short while?

No, a few days ago.

And do you like Juan Carlos?

Yeah, I like him,
he brings back lots of memories.

- Of what?
- Of many movies I've seen.

Over there in the haystack.

I won't consent to them
taking the kids to Cuba, stuff like that.

- Where I first saw you.
- It's the first thing they do.

- But why would they take them to Cuba?
- To the communists, that's why!

There are many poor children over there.

Yes, and what's there
that one can live off?

I want to find you again.

Again. Again.

In order to stop suffering.

I want to meet you

once again.

In order to stop suffering.

- Come here if you can.
- It's the sister.

Come here if you love me.

Please come here.

Come here in order to

become aware of it.

So that my affection won't die.

Come here in order to

become aware of it.

So that my affection won't die.

Over there in the haystack

is where I saw you for the first time.

Why not putting up a business?

Over there in the haystack.

I know we will understand each other

The circumstances are different.

Especially when it comes to love.

But I want to let you know, my dear,
that I love you all,

so don't think I don't love anyone.

I'm not just a proud woman
who doesn't love anyone.

I ask you to accompany me, my dear,

because I feel lonely and sad.

The life we live with my godmother
is very lonely.

It's very nice, right?

- Yes, really.
- Look.

Done.

First of all, I want to ask you not to
blame anyone for my death,

since it's my decision. Life doesn't
make sense to me.

The reason for which I
take this decision is that

no one cares about me.
I'm very lonely, godmother.

I love you a lot but I've suffered a huge
disappointment and can't keep living.

When was this?

When I fought with the German
with the white car.

No. I don't remember.

- Yeah, you met him.
- The blonde guy?

- No not at all, he wasn't my boyfriend.
- What was he then?

- Nothing, we just laughed now and then.

No, not at all, he touched my
knee and that's all.

- But also the arms.
- And did he kiss your neck?

- No.
- No? - No

I only let him touch my knee.

But like that, with his hand,
without taking a breath.

- And tongue kisses?
- Only with his tongue, not mine.

I know that when I'm being
kissed like that,

I never let the breath escape.

That's of little use, isn't it?

It depends. If I'm being kissed like
that, I just reciprocate the breath.

Give it a try. Keep it there.

Of course, on top of that the tongue
moving in the mouth is a bit disgusting.

But afterall it's not that bad.

Keep reading the letter.

That's why I'm going somewhere,
so there's nothing left of me.

You'll have to pick me up at Tiltil.

Over there you'll find another
letter on my body

in which I explain the real reasons
for this decision, which is mine

and I decided it today,
on November 15th.

A little bit too long.

Now read this one.
No, this one.

Juan Carlos, my love,

firstly I wanted to say I'm yours forever.

Take me in your arms,
I love you so much.

I want to say so many things, to always
be at your side and live with you.

No, that's poetry.

We'll start in Valaraíso and
travel to Callao.

We reach Callao.

From there we travel to California.

We reach California.

We get there passing by
Polynesia, Hawaii, etc.

That's why I want to make contact
with someone in California.

Someone in the US
that can help me get there.

I have addresses of some friends.

And the record?

When are you getting home?

I don't know. Tomorrow.

I already know. And you?

Well then.

Well then, the idea is...
Your brother lives there, doesn't he?

Sure. On the other side.
In New York.

But I think he'd take the time
to travel to California.

- Will he be interested in going there?
- It's been a long time since he saw us.

- Yes?
- Hell yes.

Well, I don't know.

- What does your brother do?
- Publicity.

He doesn't want to come back
as things are.

So you think he would like
to meet with us?

Yes, I guess so.

I would really like to talk to him.

Listen, what's his name?

It's necessary to figure out
if one should work there.

Juan Carlos?

But he's in New York.

In the end I'm the one who
makes fun of them.

I know they try to make fun of me,
and since I know they make fun of me,

I make fun of them.

But you know that
it's the contrary.

- Why? - Because they know very well
they make fun of you.

And you think they make fun of you,

because deep inside they
don't take you seriously.

But on the contrary,
I mean if they really knew you

they would actually start
caring about you.

And there would be no need
make fun of them.

I don't know, but I make fun of
everyone, even you.

- You know that's unfair.
- Why?

Because deep inside we could have

many more reasons to make fun of you.

And you don't have as many reasons
to make fun of us, understand?

And we don't make fun of you
with regard to all those things.

I don't know, but I still make fun of
everyone. I feel a little bit ashamed.

Hey, how about that journey?

Well, we'll board a ship in Valparaíso

and we keep navigating northwards,
until reaching California.

In California we'll stay for a few days,
then keep going to Hawaii,

then take another ship.

- He's making fun of you! Don't you see?
- Not at all!

Look,
I know he's making fun of me,

and since I know he's making fun of
me, I make fun of him!

Only partially.

I go to Valparaíso
in order to sing.

Yes I do,

Yes, I do. Ha, ha!
Yes, I do.

I hold you, 6 o'clock.

- I understood that!
- No but you didn't understand.

Yes, I did know what you meant!

You know what I said, but you're wrong
because I didn't say it literally.

But he's making fun of you right there!

You're also making fun of me!
Together with him.

See the example
of how we make fun of you?

- But why are you making fun of me?
- Because we do.

I also make fun of him,
of you, of everyone.

Well, as you like.

Today we're going to the disco.

On our way
we went in the following way.

Front seats: A with H.

Back seats from left to right:
me, XX and M.

And when we came back
M was driving. Me and X.

In the back: M, J
and a small kid who's everyone's friend.

Today I started writing this diary,

My godmother was sick

and it was very grave.

Turn off the lights, please.

My head hurts so much...

Here's the lady.

Don't move, don't move.

Turn off the lights..

- Am I clean?
- Yes.

Please turn off the lights, please.

And does your aunt know, Maria?

No, I understand.

What happened?

I almost caught the patroness
kissing the patron.

I want to go to the bathroom.

Turn off the lights!

This house if full of mice, excuse me.

- There's a mouse in there.
- A mouse?

The other day I also saw it.

The other day for example,
I found one over here.

- There's a mouse down here too!
- I'll kill it.

No, let it be. You go downstairs.

Please come here.

Be silent!

- What's happening?
- Who's there?

No one, lady.

Good night.

Good night.

My Lord Jesus Christ,
god and real man,

let not a black car cross my path
when I reach the Alameda.

Let me not step on a disgusting thing,
Christ my Lord may it be like that.

One morning, smiling sky
thinking of things from the heart

1, 2, 3, little white horse
bad for you, good for me

1, 2, 3, little white horse
bad for you, good for me

An illusion brings its own fate
and like the wind

it fades away

Rain drop, bus stop, lollipop
Hop now on one leg

Rain drop, bus stop, lollipop
Hop now on one leg

Listening just to the voice of her mind

You know, little girl,
I'm really worried because

you've got a series of memory lapses.

And that's not your fault.

It's actually the teacher
of each respective course

that is to blame for this situation.

For example botany,
what do you know about it?

A flower, you don't know
the parts of a flower. I've noticed it.

And botany is very important.

You might say it has nothing
to do with my course but it does,

because it's all related.

And for example
botany is related to history.

Of how great civilizations were built.
So botany, applied botany.

For example Mesopotamian culture,
Egyptian culture is all related to botany.

There are some teachers here
who are just rich and crazy.

For example the art teacher
takes you to exhibitions

of other rich, crazy women like her
who just can't draw.

Why don't they get their inspiration
in real things, do you see that?

Do you see what's happening
out there? That's marvelous.

That man, so simple, who's doing
something without any pretension

and it's a pure and marvelous
work of art, at the same time.

It's useful because it's a chair
where one can sit.

But all those ugly drawings
of those old women, what's the use?

They say it's just attraction, but it's not,
it's nothing, it's just absurd.

So I insist you should
be dedicated and study deeply

without taking into account
your teachers, they don't care.

For example,
Chilean flowers are amazing

Chile has some fantastic flowers.
She says not in the north, the desert.

Wrong, I've been in the desert!
I've seen what happens in the desert,

it's full of flowers.

I've brought marvelous plants from
the desert, even from outside Chile.

We were in the desert once.

When I was young I was studying,
we went on a teacher's tour.

And what happened?

I went with a group of friends.
There was a friend who had a camera

and he made fools of us.

He took some photos of us.

He made us do some absurd poses

and it turns out this joker
didn't have any film in the camera.

I realized that because I take pictures,

thus I realized he took more than
60 photos without changing the film,

so that was very suspicious.

He also went to a hotel with the
math teacher and made her undress,

taking a series of nude pictures,

telling her that he would publish them
in a foreign magazine.

I've actually told this anecdote

several times and it has
caused great hilarity.

I don't know about you,
but some people like this story a lot.

And given an opportunity,

at a birthday celebration,
an aunt's birthday or at a friend's,

they always ask me to tell this story.

Regarding my mother,
she's kind of

mentally sick, so she might
confuse me with a saint.

I come to the house
and she falls on her knees.

So the problem I have
with my mother is serious,

thus I bought her two TVs
and have her watching TV all day.

Sometimes I put two different
channels on at the same time,

so she sticks to that fake world
and lets me live my life.

So I can dedicate myself say, to my
experience to prepare my musical shows

and to occasionally meet
some girlfriends.

Because that's really important.
Now I recommend you

to do things that are unusual.

For example, to suddenly wake up
at 3 am and go for a walk.

That's such a nice thing.
If you haven't done it, do it.

It's the most wonderful thing,
you go out, start to walk

toward the mountain,
and wait for the sun to rise.

It's really nice, you breathe fresh air,

you see the empty streets,
your mind clears.

That's what you need to do,
and other stuff.

Do you get it?

Let me mention

this problem, for example,

that we recently encounter a lot,

which is all doctors being bandits.
My mom wanted me to become a doctor.

Life circumstances made me
become a music teacher

and music is my only interest.

I would never accept to capitalize
on human suffering,

even though I've got lots of family
members who are doctors.

Uncle Ruperto studied
medicine for 20 years.

He graduated finally
and is making good money.

He has three cars and wants me
to work with him.

Many times he's said:
"I can get you in here."

I'll never accept that, never.

I'm only interested in the
simple things of life,

like that marvelous thing
that is happening out there.

That man outside his house
who's painting without any pretension.

That amazing thing,
simple and also comfortable.

It's something on which he, or his wife,
or a friend may sit.

I beg you to take a look,
but be very, very calmly,

without making any noise.

So that no other teachers start
gossiping that there's disorder in here.

So you take a look. See?

This leaf I'm going to show you is also
an amazing thing. Simple and natural.

Whales for example,
have any of you seen a whale?

That's the most marvelous thing,
they eject water!

They are amazing beings.

Now whales have disappeared
in all the parts of the world.

Where are they conserved? In Chile!
Thanks to the 200 mile policy.

The territorial defense of 200 miles

that permits whales to have
a sanctuary because

no pirates from any part of the world
can hunt whales over here.

Well, girls, all I've been
telling you till now

is theory, because reality is
something totally different.

When you go out and start living,
you'll encounter many problems.

and you'll realize, for example,
that even if you try,

make an excellent effort in
certain fields of art or science,

you'll never reach the highest peaks,
that means Wagner.

I've actually discussed this
a lot with my mother,

because she's a fan of Bach,

but Wagner is a high peak
humanity will never reach again.

It's something really incredible
and I recommend that you...

The bell has rung so I
ask you to leave quietly,

because you know how
they gossip about me.

They even say there are
orgies in my course!

So please leave slowly and calmly.

I love you, Juan Carlos.

I told him before,
but now I can't say it

Something like "I love you",

I can't say it now.

The problem is that ruling class which
has the mass media at its disposal

makes use of this media in order
to manipulate the suppressed class.

Therefore the suppressed class

is taught about values
by the ruling class,

being absorbed by these values.

Now, what happens if a girl that
belongs to the suppressed class

dates someone from the ruling class?

Without a doubt, for a while she feels

like all of her dreams and
objectives came true,

given that she's influenced
by the values of the

ruling class through mass media.

So that's the problem
with mass media.

But undoubtedly she'd have some neurosis

as she can't be absorbed by the values
of the ruling class for too long.

Suddenly there'll be a conflict,

a neurosis that won't
permit her existence.

What are you doing over there,
you fucking idiots!

Shithead prole!

How much do Yankees pay you,
you shithead scumbag?!

Shithead! Traitor!

Prole!

You son of a bitch!

They pay you in dollars, you scumbag!

Scumbag!

Shithead prole!

What class do you belong to?
Shithead!

Sold out!
They pay you in dollars!

My family is Allendist.
My stepfather isn't,

Pepe is nothing,
but he's also an Allendist.

Mirta is Alessandrist,
Mrs. Anita is Alessandrist.

My godmother is Alessandrist.
The other lady is also Allendist.

I'm a little bit Alessandrist,
in the other district they aren't.

You're fighting for the Yankees. Shit!

Life is that which we have,
which is the only thing.

We know we are wretched,
because we're alive.

- Allende
- Allende.

- Allende
- Allende.

Allende

Are you sure they are all Allendists?

Not all of them, there are exceptions.

For example, my godmother
is Alessandrist.

My Mom is Allendist,
just like my stepfather.

At your place?

At my place they're all Alessandrists.

Do you know there was a diner at
Alessandri's place the other day?

Well, what should I do?

I didn't accept to go.

You know there are some dudes,
I don't know what they're doing.

So, as I was telling you

it's shit because Alessandri
asks Christian for his opinion.

And then he started crying and stuff

saying how could people
lose respect for him.

And Alessandri kicked him out.

And who do you like?

You know, I'm indecisive.
I don't know who to vote for.

I mean, one has to consider that

all politicians are rotten.

Hey, you know what, those dudes
out there want something, I'm afraid.

They've been there for a while.

And they just want to take care
of their interests, basically.

They worry about others but
they don't even know

who they really are. You understand?

Hey, those dudes are still there.
I'd better leave, don't you think?

- I don't know, whatever you want.
- Something could happen to us, so...

They've been here for some time.
I don't know what they want.

Godmother!

Where were you?

Where were you?

When was it that...

Wash the clothes... clean the bathroom...
pay for the light...

Take out garbage... make the beds...
sort things out...

talk a little... do the shopping...
clean the future...

turn on the oven... go to market...
sell the bottles...

soak the beans... polish reason

Where were you?

Where were you?

Tell me where you were

Where were you yesterday?

When was it that...

Darn the socks... stuff the birds...
buy the wool...

collect the cups... sell old clothes...
clean the kitchen...

Pass the floor cloth... talk of your life...
hang out the clothes... buy the gas...

cook the lentils... sell the sky...
make the curtains... repair your days

Where were you?

Where were you?

Don't worry you're at my house.

- Shouldn't we study?
- Yes. History.

- I'm not going to tomorrow's act.
- Why not?

I feel so bad, anything I eat
makes me feel bad.

- So aren't you being careful?
- Was it something you ate here?

Not at all. The other day I
went with Juan Carlos,

I ate some ice cream and felt awful.

Ah yeah, with Juan Carlos.

Yes, with Juan Carlos.

Are you drawing? Studying?

- He's my brother.
- Hi.

Listen, tell your boyfriend
to be more considerate,

he broke the taxi's window.

I had a fight with my dad,
some kicks and stuff.

- Hey, who won?
- I don't know really, but...

- Don't you want to go along?
No, thank you.

Listen, I don't understand that task.

- Are you staying?
- No they live nearby.

Well, only God knows.

That history task is really tough.

I told you it's better if
we study together.

- Why don't you stay for a while?
- No, I'm going.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Mother!

- You know what he told you.
- I know, I'm crazy.

Hold on! Are you serious about him?

Of course! Why not? You know how I am.

You want to continue seeing him?

I want to see him! What's the problem?

And where am I sleeping?

- Because I can't sleep in the other bed.
- Don't worry.

- You can sleep with me
in my dad's bed. - OK.

I'll go to the bathroom.

Spare me a minute.

We have an older sister

that was dating three guys
at the same time.

And one day she went out.

And then one of them started
to get her into prostitution.

After the earthquake
she brought four kids over here,

after the catastrophe and stuff, the
entire neighbourhood knows about it.

The cops also got involved.

So we want you to help her,

we want you to tell her
which is the right path.

It just can't continue like this.

Please give it a try.

Just give her advice.

The girl who wrote it was
completely in love with XX.

- That's Juan Carlos.
- Yes.

My friend Telma told me
she considered that XX

and the circumstances
of our worlds were different.

And in that sense his parents
were going to

oppose it, which was very possible.

- I told you.
- What does it matter?

Things in XX house.

Several yards, big and small.

Several rooms on
the first and second floor.

Antique paintings, libraries,
some in the bedrooms.

The servant's place
is bigger than my house.

Cars, a big fence,
beautiful carpets and sofas.

There are many other
beautiful things like lamps

and cute dresses.

Cute bath objects in English.

Shut up for a while, please!

Why are you telling us to shut up?

Shut up!

- You're pissing me off.
- Shut up!

Why should I shut up?

Catholic University!
Together we fight for honour!

And carrying in our souls...

Shut up!

For the nation, God And the university!

- Good night.
- Good night.

Shall I tell you a joke?

Two little newborn girls,
one of them ask the other:

"Hey, do you think we're virgins?"
"Why?", the other girl asks.

"We're newborns!", she says.

"No, I just sat on the dummy!",
she says.

Hey... that kid your aunt has...

- Don't you like it?
- I don't care.

Look, some day you'll have to come over.

And you have to look her
deeply into the eyes, understand?

And you'll get a good idea.

No, it doesn't matter.

Don't you want to?

Carlos, my love

I'm expecting a child.

My love.

I'm so happy.

Should we name him Carlos?

I live in a very decent place
with my godmother.

You know I have sisters, too?

In a very decent house,
with a respected family.

A stewardess, a nurse.

Which airline does she work for?

Avianca, I think.

Sometimes I suffer a lot.

One day my mom's house got set on fire.
She was drunk.

- Did anything happen?
- No, luckily. Did you know about that?

Yes, yes I did.

It's amazing how my mom dresses.

And then she just drops her children.

Where should I deliver it?

And also a doggy,
a very cute doggy,

playing with my brother in the mud.

Do you have a dog?

The first fight I saw was between one
from Valdivia with one from Providence.

There some dudes were fighting.

Another one in the Costanera,
a shooting.

Of course I didn't see that one,
someone told me.

Another one in Plaza Italia,

they were some athletes
who were training

and fought some guys
who wanted to hit us.

It was in front of the CCU.

And there were some nuns
who wanted to fight us.

In front of the US embassy there's
always fighting, but not too hard.

Hi.
Do you remember me?

Hey, so you're Ricardo.

- Well, here we are.
- What do you think?

- You study at the French Alliance?
- Yes, just like Alejandro.

Ah, yes. That one!

As well as his siblings.

They're so miserable.

- No, but it's all good. - How can it be?
They come and hit defenseless people.

This is a public park. People
shouldn't be smoking weed and stuff.

- But they can do whatever they want!
- Hey, but...

- How did you organize all this stuff?
- We've thought about this for a while.

Watch out!

Look, some came from over there

Others from there,
more came from over there.

It's amazing, no one will escape.

- I'll tell you something: piss off, run.
- Maybe you can piss off.

No, you piss off because
no one will escape us, so piss off.

I was invited, but I didn't want to go.
It isn't right to go out with men.

Who knows where they come from,
who knows where they're going.

I thought it wasn't right,
Maybe I sound like a decent girl.

To me, the streets lead to ruin.

We are the legion of fighters

at the dawning of a new age,

forging the glory which as of tomorrow

the agile nation

may use as a cover.

Go ahead! Come in!

Excuse me.

Sit down over there!

Let's listen to some modern jazz,
if you're all right with it.

Do you want a drink?

Do you want to?

No, not for me.

This jazz is very lively.

Now comes the "clarinet"

Clarinet and improvisation,
as it's called.

More to drink?

I'm coming. I'll soon
be there with you.

I don't think that it's right
for us being here.

What's the matter.

No, let's stay here.

I have to go to school!

- I want to go.
- Let them know!

What's going on?

No, we just said we wanted to go.

Ready for the best?

Don't touch me.

Let it be.

Listen, what are you doing?

What are you laughing about?

These things are not right.

You know that.

But look!

Afterall you knew what was coming.

No, we didn't expect that.

This can be handled.

Let's talk about it.

Listen, girls!

Listen, let me propose something!

Let's do this!

We just have a talk.

Wait, let me talk to them.

What do you think if we talk?

- Girls!
- That's not fine.

- We'll talk about some nice things.
- That's it.

It's not possible for you to
just leave. Let's talk calmly.

Why are we even here?

Do you think this is immoral?

Is this a really a matter of
morality or immorality?

What else should it be about?

It's about being well, comfortable.

But we're not comfortable.

You told us we came here
to listen to music.

Of course.

We never imagined something like this.

On the beach you also see
people without clothes.

No, but you're wearing underwear.

Well, underwear is just the
same as a bathing suit!

- No it's different, it's underwear.
- But look!

I can give you some bathing suits.

Then we're all the same.

Well, you girls put on bathing suits
and we're all equal, more or less.

We'll be in the same situation.

- What's the matter?
- Nothing happened.

What happened with the girls?

It turns out they agreed
to put on the bathing suits.

- You see!
- Look!

Wait for a second!

I will explain it to you.

There are bathing suits for two of them.

- Well, should I open the door?
- Go ahead.

Well, right now?

What do you want?

Hey, listen!

We're four and four.
Or rather four and five.

Four and five!

That's even better.

You can count me in.

What's the problem?

Oh no, no, no.

One can't continue like that
for a lifetime.

- Ladies!
- Listen! Are they there?

Have you been to a strip bar, man?

It's your house.

An international show.

An international Lolita
that came from Japan.

16 years old.

It was all erotic.

With lots of nice music.

And she moved like that.

But it was hot. And then she did this.

She moved close to some old man.

He resisted.

- Here!
- What?

What a woman!

A kiss. Like that.

And then she grabbed a chair.
Grabbed a chair.

With lots of delicacy.

And then a towel.

And here she had a dragon,
a coloured dragon. Here.

She put the towel
behind her legs like this.

She moved it.

And she started.

Do you see?

Look here, little brother.

What do you say, little one?

And she moved the towel like that.

And it seemed like that
old man touched her.

That guy seemed to be quite an asshole.

And a Brazilian girl came.
But from the other side.

Listen, I will have a look
to see if I like them.

No, no, no.

I will have a look.

What are you saying?

Hello.

- You see.
- Hello.

Excuse me.

Come on. Another song.

A sweet night.

A sweet night.

A sweet night.

A sweet night.

Come on. Go ahead.

This guy is a real pain, man!

It's what I'm saying, pal.

What are you doing, man?

I'm going over there.

Go ahead!

What about your wife?

I'm kind of tired of her.

What's the matter?

He passed out. They're really
getting crazy over there.

You should come over.

Come on, get out of here!

Come on, beauty. Get out of here!

Let's go!

- We haven't done anything.
- You haven't done anything?

Bring him over there!

Slowly, colleague.

Take his shoes off!

He was in a good mood.

Ok, let's see.

Don't worry. I'll take care of him.

Are you leaving?

Calm down!

Hey, I won't allow that.

No, stop it.

We're getting out of here.

It's time to leave.

Goodbye! We'll meet again.

That wretch is leaving.

What?

Look, what are we doing now?

Napkins...

More napkins...

Nails!

What are they doing in there?

- And that one!
- Bills!

These things aren't worth much.

More bills!

They invited me to a party and I went.

But damn it! How was I supposed
to know it would be a real orgy.

Just when the girls started to put on

old-fashioned dresses,
they gave one to me,

then they got naked.
I didn't want to do that.

And then they did striptease and stuff.

They took their clothes off
in a degenerate way.

Then I saw them on top of each other,
who knows what were they doing.

But it seems all right, doesn't it?

- More or less.
- The treatment is fine.

First of all, when it comes
to the house,

it's not me who takes care of it.

It's my wife who takes care of it.

That's what needs to be said.

Yes, that's what needs to be said.

She deserves credit for it.

- Who else needs some ice?
- No, I'm OK, thanks.

All right, cheers!

Let's see, how are things going?

I request to continue with
the preparations.

Excuse me, I reflected on it.

With the customs and such.

What about the doll? The doll is here.

I actually saw some good
ones over there.

It looks like the businesses are...

Hey, you know, a very strange
thing happened.

Raúl was there at the office.

And someone had told him that

the person that's always walking behind
me were my bodyguard.

It's not the case, though it turns out

that they confused him with a bodyguard.

They actually told me the same.

It could well be the case, right?

That's how you get respected.

There's one thing I wanted to ask you.

I've been thinking about it
since the beginning.

Wednesday or Thursday,
when we were at your office,

there was a man with grey hair,
a tall one.

- Ah, that's Fernando Sotomayor.
- Exactly.

Which Sotomayor is he?

He's Eduardo's brother.

- Yes, he's his brother.
- No, it's another one.

No no, you're mistaken,

he's Eduardo's brother.

I see. It's the older brother.

They have a house in the
development area.

Aren't they the ones that
have been commissioned?

I know them, but those are others.

- He's a consultant and also assessor.
- No, you're right Patricio.

- But do you remember?

They were talking about some Sotomayor.

- Exactly.
- Exactly, yes.

Yes, that him.

Of course.

- But are you interested in continuing?
- Yeah, of course.

Afterall, we're here to
celebrate business.

Yes. And the bed...

Everyone's got their ideas, so...

I think that...

I don't really agree.

No, let him talk if he wants to.

The thing is that you give too much
importance to material things

and above all the business and stuff.

But in the end there are
many more positive things than that!

Like for example?

Like for example, there are more
delicate matters.

Let Patricio talk!

Thanks, I'm not thirsty.

Try to think for yourself,
meditate on what's inside you.

Hey Carlos, you can think about yourself
while we do more than just thinking,

Yeah, you can stay there with your tie.

I'll stay here with my tie making money
all night so you can think in peace.

Everyone has their own lives
and we should respect that.

That's correct.

I have my own ideas and you have
to respect it.

This class of philosophy...

We have nothing to tell him.

Carlos criticizes, but meanwhile we make

the money to provide the possibility.

No, but that not it.

You only want to feel important,

wearing your tie, being
all rich and stuff.

But in the end it's not
that what matters.

No, you guys don't understand.

I'll explain it. You see, what Carlitos
is saying is that money

is being brought by the night fairies.

No, that's not it either, you're not
getting it! That's not it!

No, I've had enough of it.

Look, I'm going to tell you something,
don't take it badly.

He's a good kid, but
it's just that he...

At any moment he'll appear at the door.

- Everything fine?
- Yes, it's all fine.

- Is Patricio in there?
- Yeah, he is.

Take an aspirin and go to sleep.

- Good night.
- Good night.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You know my parents
came with some friends.

And they are drinking
and celebrating I don't know what.

And I took the opportunity
to bring you the batteries.

Hey, whom do you prefer?
Christian or myself?

I like you all, all of you,
your mom, your dad.

But he's way more popular.

He's more casual and he's also shorter.

- He brings gifts.
- What dolls has he given you?

Paz and Macarena.

Listen, and where's the
other doll they gave you?

I gave it to Vicky.

- Hey, you still have the pics of my
folks? - No, I didn't put them there.

- But they're dumb, why do they
put up that stuff? -

Magallanes vs Colo-Colo..

Magallanes won 3- 2, one player
sent off in the second half.

How about in 1938?

That time, Colo-Colo vs. Magallanes,
Colo-Colo won that one 3 - 1.

- It rained the whole game.
- And who told you...?

I was thinking that we've known
each other for quite some time.

We should have a relationship.

A lasting one, you know.

Whenever you want.

- Do you mean a love relation?
- Something like that, but

thinking about the future.

Well, let me tell you something.
I don't really love you.

Only as a friend.

I don't want to hurt you, but I know
that you'll find a better girl.

Nevermind. Did I tell you the joke
I recently read in the newspaper?

Well, there's a circus that calls
itself "THE HUMAN EAGLES".

They shout: "Listen, here's the the great
circus for all the children of Chile.

Listen, the circus "THE HUMAN EAGLES"
is suitable for all children.

Listen, the great circus! To all
children, come to the circus!"

And then someone gets out of the truck.
He opens his wallet and says:

"Fly in here, eagle!"

According to the date, 1920.

Santiago National vs. Iberia,
Iberia won 2 - 1.

Ten and...

Third date in 1950.

That's a famous date.
Colo-Colo won 4 - 1.

The first goal was scored by
Jorge Robledo.

It was a great goal after 15 minutes.

- Won't you look at that!
- What, it's the truth!

I've got a good memory. Anything I see,
I memorize it! Without any problem.

Your neurons fail, mine don't.

Where's the money I hid here?

- Stop it.
- Anything I see.

There's nothing in here.

Stop it, old woman.

- Where's the money I hid here?
- What do I know?

It looks like there's a thief in my
house. They took my money from here.

- Don't make me laugh though.
- The money was in here.

Stop it, old woman.

They steal from me and
also make fun of me!

Enough already.

Do you miss your father a lot?

No, only sometimes.

I don't miss anyone.

Sometimes I miss him.
When I go to places where he went.

When I go to the corner of the stairs

and see the mice living there...

Before they were near the beach.

He used to live with us.
Or when I go to the room,

because he slept in the room
where I sleep now,

I slept in the other room
with my kid brother.

So sometimes I go to the other room
thinking it's my room.

Or I just imagine my dad is sleeping
beside me when I'm in my room.

Also when I stumble in the living room

I remember him, because he
also stumbled in there.

And it makes me sick. I don't know,
I want to puke given the impression.

Also the magazine in the bathroom.
From the times when my dad was alive.

- But that'll just make you laugh.
- No, I don't laugh about that stuff.

You know, I really respect all people.
Above all, I respect you, because

It's not right you've been
through all that.

- I try not to...
- That's what I'm saying.

I try not to read the magazine,

but sometimes I can't help it
and I realize that

a lot of people have written
rude stuff in it and it pisses me off.

As I said, I would never laugh about
this stuff you're telling me, you know?

I have enough reasons, but really

I respect everyone.

- Are you going to cry?
- No, I'm fine, it's okay.

- Why am I like this, Juan Carlos?
- Like what?

So cold.

Because that's how
they taught us to be.

That's how everyone has been

all their lives, so nothing can change.

As far as I understand.

It's natural.

- You know I'm telling you the truth.
- It's not possible.

This love between you is monstrous.

- Because that man is your son.
- Shut up!

He'll know it all.

What have I told you?
Why are you persecuting me like this?

It's my fate.

Until the next time,
Maria Isabel...

Here comes your son!

My love.

Yeah, I like it simple.

Antonio, he was my husband,

he liked it strong, but I could
never get used to it.

It's a family matter.

You don't like me talking
about my husband, right?

- Why not? He was a good man.
- Of course. He was a good man.

Grab me.

- Like this?
- No, the other way!

What do you feel?

Go away, madam.

- Don't you want me to see you dancing?
- Just go away.

- I'll go upstairs.
- Wherever you want, just disappear!

You want me to go on the street,
but I'm going upstairs.

If you touch me, I'll tell my mother,
as I did on the first communion.

- I'll just be quiet.
- Shut up already!

- I won't shut up.
- Shut up!

This is the famous feminine gender,
these are women!

Get in the kitchen, shit!

Do something more useful.

Double widow.

- Parallel widows.
- Simply widows.

Widow and miracle of Saint Bernardette.

- Widow, passion and death of our Lord
Jesus Christ. - All the retired widows.

Our widows are the rivers
that go to the sea.

- To win the widow.
- A new widow.

- Remaking his widow.
- The hot widow. - To win the widow.

- Having seven widows with objects.
- Parallel widows.

You know, I'm missing some of these.
These aren't all of them.

- You took one of these.
- You're crazy, I didn't.

- Yes, you did.
- I didn't.

These are my brother's,
he'll check.

You can't imagine how tired I am.

- Listen, little sister!
- Yes?

You were talking with Juan Carlos
the other day, right?

What did you talk about?

- We couldn't say much.
- Yes, you talked a lot.

- No, you quickly slipped in...
- Wait a little.

when you arrived. And...

It's ready.

No, we really couldn't talk at all.

You see?

Maybe they only talked
about dirty stuff.

Sexy stuff, sexy stuff!
Yes or no?

An intimate widow.

- A large widow.
- An endowed widow.

- The endowed widow of the bourgeois.
- The endowed widow of the marquis.

A widow in the depths of the sea.

The extraterrestrial widow.

Below the sea level?

Yes.

What are they talking about?

It's pretty messed-up.

- What? We're messed-up?
- No. Not that much.

Do you want to go to the
book fair or don't you?

- It depends.
- Come on, don't be stupid.

Hey Mirta, I want you to tell me
once and for all:

what did Juan Carlos tell you?

It happened. It happened.

We met there in the house
and then you came in.

He asked me if you went to school.

Put them like this.

You need to have it like that.

He asked me if I've seen you
at school, that's all.

It happened.

I'm leaving...

- Well see you... Bye.
- Bye.

Hey Telma, what is life for you?

Life...

is a passion,

a great love.

Having a man who loves me

and gives me lots of kids.

Well, not many. A few.

One who is patient.

- Who adores me...
- Good evening.

Good evening.

Look, I was a friend of the owner,
so I'm working at Mantos Blancos

and since I'm going to my
brother's wedding,

I passed by to pay some
money I owed him.

So I said I'll take the chance
and pass by to pay him.

- And I want... Madam, good evening.
- Good evening...

I'm a friend of the owner,
so I came by to pay him some money.

Because I'm working at
Mantos Blancos up north.

I decided to use the opportunity
to pay him,

as I'm going to my brother's wedding.

Good evening.

Are you the friend of the deceased man?
I married his woman.

The woman of the deceased man.

Good evening.

I'm working countless hours.

And what are you doing still up?

And he fell down like that.

One wrong step at the edge
and he flew through the air.

And I just stared. I couldn't understand

that my father was dead. Go figure.

And he was taken to the apartment
where I supposedly lived with my mom.

And we cried and looked at each other.

I had been watching television.

And I suddenly realized
that my father was dead.

Did nobody vote?

Why? I don't get involved in politics.

Exactly.

- Be comfortable with what you have.
- Don't get involved in politics.

The same goes for that old man.

It's not that I don't care
about politics. I actually like it.

I am who I am.
You don't like it, hard luck.

If life changes, it's welcome.

Do you know the lyrics of
"We Shall Prevail"?

I know it by heart.

I also know "Sunshine",
"Facing the Sun",

"Erica".

Listen, I have written it down.

Why don't you recite it for us?

The popular clamour rises from
the deep crucible of the nation.

Once the dawn breaks, all
Chile begins to sing.

In remembrance of the courageous soldier
whose example has made him immortal

We first confront death.
We never betray the nation.

We shall prevail, we shall prevail!
A thousand chains we'll have to break.

We shall prevail, we shall prevail!
The Popular Unity will win.

Peasants, soldiers, miners,
as well as the nation's women,

students, employees and workers.
We will do our duty.

We'll sow the land with glory.

Socialism will be our future. All
together, we will complete history.

- We shall prevail, we shall prevail.
- Well done.

- You're trendy.
- No he's an Allendist.

- I'm a leftist.
- You're an Allendist, man.

He's on the left, for sure.

What do you mean?

How is the girl behaving?

Well, now she has a boyfriend.

Ah, so she has a boyfriend now?

Hey, daughter.

What is that supposed to mean?

I won't take this!

Come on! Calm down!

Where are you going girl, where?

Where are you going, girl?

Leave her alone!

She behaves like that at night.

- You have to accept it.
- It cannot be, it cannot be.

You have to resign yourself.

- You must be strong.
- You don't understand.

What did I do to deserve this?

There are beings who are
born under the sign of disgrace.

Now you know that your love...

is impossible.

I always knew it.

You're... beloved by everyone, doctor.

You know what I mean.

I don't understand you, doctor.

The only woman
I've loved in my life...

are you.

Fernando...

Leave me alone.

Farewell,

Maria Isabel.

A Miguelito,

a little boy

that was left without a mother

when he was very young.

And at his father's,

who was a miner,

in a little ranch next to a mountain,
he was raised.

When his father

came home from the mine,

he enjoyed singing this song:

Daddy! Daddy! Let me sing,

so that you can rest from
the tiresome work.

Daddy!

Take me to the mine,

so that I can help you
with your labour.

Like destiny

that doesn't forgive,

his father was also taken by God.

And since then,
when the miners return,

you can hear Miguelito
sing the song:

Daddy! Daddy!

Let me sing.

I forgot the lyrics.
I can't keep singing.

This is the kind of song that

gets me very emotional, really.

Why don't they play more of this on the
radio, instead of that other stuff?

On the radio they play
angry, violent stuff.

But that's the music I like.

Not these ones,
like this one.

Today on the beach I saw her.

I looked at her and followed her.

And she looked at me.

And within a moment she disappeared.

And within a moment she disappeared.

- Thank you.
- Good night.

- Go out.
- Thank you, you're very kind.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Ah, thank you.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Of course we were good friends, we
worked on several buildings together!

And he came one day and I told him
I wanted to go to work up north.

And he told me: "Go there!"

He even lent me some money,
so I could manage the first few days.

And from there I went further North
and it went well.

Now I've returned to pay back the money.

But I was actually a
great friend of his.

Nowadays I don't see him that much,
except for tonight.

That's why we're going to
stay here for a while.

- Tomorrow I'll travel again.
- So I'm sorry.

What? What?

- Good night.
- Good night.

Today on the beach I saw her.

I looked at her and followed her.

And she looked at me.

And within a moment she disappeared.

Good night.

And within a moment she disappeared.

Every Wednesday and Friday afternoon
I used to visit Juan Carlos' place,

and the maid always greeted me.

Now she never says hello.

Sometimes I pass by
and she doesn't even look.

Disgrace

Each day more disgrace

Of this love,
this crazy love

That's what the others always feel

But while we love each other
there will be no anguish

We will look at each other
and even get used to

the incomprehension

Nobody will ever know.

Good evening.

- Are you from this neighbourhood?
- Yes.

- Do you live here?
- Sure.

- You were in Carlos' circle of friends?
- Sure, I used to hang out with him.

- Haven't you seen him lately?
- No, not for a week.

- I don't know what's happened to him.
- You don't know where he might be?

No, if you want I can help you find him,
but it's really hard.

- I believe it.
- May I?

- Of course.
- Excuse me.

- Good night, madam.
- Good night.

- Want to come in for a coffee?
- No thanks, no.

- Good night.
- Good night.

I know that life is promising.

There is something that tells me that.

I like you because you're ambitious.

So, I should look for you?

Goodbye, my love.

Goodbye.

Come on, Maria.

I don't want to. I don't know
why you're asking me.

- I've told you everything my
whole life. - Just stop it.

If something had happened,
I would have told you.

- But don't you like him? Tell me.
- What do you want me to tell you?

Seriously, don't you want to sleep
with him when you're both together?

I don't want to talk about it.

- Bye.
- Bye.

It has been about fifteen days
since I last saw Juan Carlos.

He came to my house several times,
but I wasn't there, I was at school.

Once he came to my school, but I didn't
see him and they told me about it later.

And I passed by his house several times,

but never had the nerve to ask for him.

Once I phoned him, but another
person answered so I hung up.

So many times he has looked for me, but
why hasn't he found me at least once?

Which is your glass?
The left or right one?

The left one, I think.

Hey, what's wrong?
You look so tense.

Nothing's wrong.

This is not an otherworldly thing,
you've got to relax.

I know...

- I know.
- Really?

- Really.
- Then relax.

Give me a kiss!

Do you feel I belong here?

Yes, you're family.

You seem far away.

- Have you been with someone else?
. That's not true.

- Do you want a drink?
- No, you drink.

Wait.

- Do you know that...
- What?

You know what I don't like?
Hanging around these parts.

- Why? I think it's nice.
- You're crazy, how can it be nice?

I don't get how people
can come to these places.

I don't know, you see.

There should be free love
or something like that.

- Why then do you bring me here?
- What do I know...

Well, are you still being tense?

- Relax, you like it after all.
- But I am relaxed.

What's happening then?

You know, Juan Carlos, you're
the one with the problem

Are you mad at me?

You're always so likeable, aren't you?

Imbecile!

Damn, but how do you know
I have a problem?

Because I do.

What do you mean by "because I do"?

You are the problem! How many guys
have you slept with?

Imbecile!

I thought you loved me, Juan Carlos.

You don't love me...

No one ever got me that
illusioned.

I've told my friends, my neighbours...

My mom, my godmother.

My mom challenged me
and I stuck up for you.

And you just laugh at me.

I do love you, you don't love me...

Kill me, Juan Carlos.

- Don't say such stupid things.
- Kill me, kill me, kill me.

I don't want to live like this.

Kill me...

What's my family going to say about me?

A stewardess...

They won't understand it.

Noone will understand.

All have known about it.

What a shameful thing...

Kill me, Juan Carlos, kill me.

Kill me.

Kill me.
I want to die.

What the fuck, you went too far.

Now you'll stain the sheets
and everything!

Got to pay for the sheets and all that.

The only thing you care about!

The only thing I care about...

- Do you have a cloth?
- In my purse.

- What are you looking for?
- The bathroom.

Have you seen Shame?

- No what's that?
- A TV series.

You know, I'd like to work
on a TV series.

Really?

- Let's see your hand.
- No.

- Let me see your hand!
- No, no, no.

It's to make a tourniquet.

we used to do that when we went camping.

Don't be so dumb!
Let me see your hand!

- You seem like a little girl.
- Let go of me.

I've discovered the truth.

He is not your son.

It was all an imagination.

It's full of dirt, my god!

- Let me do it.
- No, I'll do it.

When we do a general cleaning, you
you throw out everything that's useless.

Yes, godmother.

- They can't marry?
- No, because he's her son.

He's got no idea, he met her in
a cabaret and she sings so nicely.

What this young man needs is someone
to take care of him and love him.

I'm so angry! Two episodes on
and they've kissed already.

Oh no, I can't believe it

Many things happen here in Chile.

- Shall I keep this?
- No! Not that.

What should I do with it?

With the quakes
all the jam jars have shaken.

Put those over there
by the handleless cups.

The bottles are also in the kitchen.

Be careful with the bottles.

Make sure that there will
be no spilling.

No, I don't want to.

Please leave me alone.

It's all right.

See you!
I'll be back later tonight.

- You can throw this and this, too.
- This will be useful.

And this is useful, too.

Did you see the new clothes?

They were bought on Friday, I think.

They actually bought me these clothes.

You know who put a detective
on the novelist to follow him.

The detective falls in love
with Maria Isabel.

He's possibly a gringo.

No it's not the gringo,
that man isn't ugly.

He's blond, but that's it.

Leave those things alone, godmother!

I have to take care of
everything, daughter.

I don't think so. I don't think so.

Leave that be, you idiot.

I don't want that.

- Is Maria in?
- Yes. Just a moment. Maria!

Godmother, I'm going out.
I'll be back later.

- Not the cups, shit! Not the cups.
- Godmother!

Not the cups, shit!
Careful, careful.

Not the cups!
Whore! Whore, whore!

Hi, I came to tell you
we're not going out tonight.

- No?
- No, because my brother arrived.

We want to spend time with mother.

But I'll call you another day!
If you aren't here it doesn't matter.

Okay. Bye.

It's all over now.

A kiss!

It's just that crochet
makes me so nervous!

It's really nice.

But it's a pity that it's so difficult.

It's nice. Believe me!
It's quite simple!

The last time I saw Juan Carlos
was on Saturday,

I had a problem with my godmother.

I remember we agreed to meet,

but then he came to tell me
we wouldn't go out.

That was the last time I saw him.

The information has just arrived
at our news department.

Void 18

- Where have you been this evening?
- In the streets.

- You're hanging out with
those dangerous men. - No.

You know that you should return now.

What's up?

How are you?
I'm glad you came back.

- Thank you. How do you feel?
- Good.

- Very good.
- I see you've already been introduced.

Patricio, I met Carlitos
when he was a kid.

Ah, even better.
Alright, let's celebrate then.

And you Carlitos,
past erased, new account heh?

Good...

I think that
we should celebrate, am I right?

It's good that this isn't forgotten.

- You never forget these things.
- No.

But before, I'd like to
present my sons.

- That's what we agreed on.
- Ah. Very well, then.

- Santiago and Julio.
- My pleasure. - You're welcome.

They'll be Carlitos' mates
and they'll help him, too.

Everything has been explained.

OK, now let's go upstairs.

Honestly, I think that
we should celebrate this.

That's what brings us here,
so let's take our glasses and...

let's say what we should say
on these occasions.

Above all I think we should celebrate,
as Gabriel would say.

He's nothing more than my
right-hand man.

Pals!

So on these occasions,

since so many years have passed,

almost always the same
things are being said.

But to me this occasion has

a very special flavour.

We're living through tough times

and Gabriel has been domineering
at all times.

That's valuable to me.

A really substantial value.

- We can again expect chaos. Right?
- Well, yes.

- Here's the city.
- Yes.

Let's put in one coin.

Here you've got custody
of marine infants.

- I'm understand. That's Chile.
- Raising again.

About 100,000 proletarians arrived.

More than that.

- Let's say 700,000.
- Yes, that's more accurate.

But these guys in here

fool themselves.

Yes, under these circumstances.

Let's meet one of these days,
right here if you like. Bye.

Put the suitcase there!

Hey, so I went to my sister's wedding

and I heard that a cousin had died.

She and her husband has been separated.

- Good evening!
- How are you? What's new?

Good evening. How are you?

I told them about a cousin.

Ah, I see.

- Maria hasn't arrived?
- Not yet.

A cousin of mine just died!

I'm going to search for
something I have here..

- What happened to the kid that sang?
- He stayed over there, you know?

He liked the trees, all
the green stuff and he stayed.

The rivers and all that.

Those are the things that matter to him.

Hello, friend. Don't you remember?

Hello, friend. Don't you remember me?

Ah, hello, how are you?

Bye!

Thus the matter is as follows.

But what are you talking about?

- The warning about the coup in Chile.
- What coup are you talking about?

The coup I'm telling you about.

How are we going to maintain the order?

How are we gonna maintain our triumph?

Ah lady, many thanks, because
I have some friends in the South

and they invited me
to sleep at their place,

on the occasion of my sister's wedding.

May I use the bathroom?
The baby needs to pee.

Yeah, well, whenever
you want we'll have a talk.

Remember, I'll be next.

Should we go? The talk was great, but...

You're always telling the same things.

Well, there's no problem.

- Hey, when do we meet again?
- Tomorrow at 6 o'clock.

See you. I'll be there at 6
or at half past 6. Bye.

If I shouldn't be there, you can
find me at the lounge.

- Did you see the newspapers?
The newspapers, did you see them? - No.

There's a picture of the dude
that came over here everyday.

He's involved in this mess.

Yeah, there's his picture.

Hey lady, please forgive me but

it's getting too late so...

Look, I don't need to get involved
with these things.

But behind the door there's
a young lady that looks sick.

Are we going to enter?

Damn it, man.

Sweetie... Sweetie... Maria!

Maria!

Answer me, sweetie!

Aren't you feeling cold
with that clothes on?

Let's carry her!

She hit me.

You're a despicable woman.
Why are you like that?

Perhaps I like it.

Now during Sundays I go
to Juan Carlos's house to watch TV.

There's a girl that invites me.

Sometimes to the kitchen
or the subway.

Juan Carlos moved to Spain,
it's better that he left.

My dear, I explained to you the exchange
needs to be sooner rather than later.

The tickets, we would also need those.

If we worry about such things,
we'll resolve nothing.

I've explained to you that
even though Raúl's house

is a little smaller than ours,
it fits perfectly!

So, it's something we've got to
resolve today, my dear.

Yes, I agree, but also
think of the gardener,

we also have to resolve that.

Listen, we can't solve
all this right now.

Yes, but the kids, they'll have to
change when going to college.

You're right.

Look, the first thing is the house.

I explained that, as Raúl has said,
the distance is very great.

Even if the house were bigger, I wouldn't
know if it were the right thing!

Yes, I agree that we must
change houses, but remember

I'll have to buy things and to have
the children exchange schools.

Altogether there are too many things.

Let's leave that and discuss
the tickets you mentioned.

The tickets depend on the signature

that can come out
on the 18th or 19th, understand?

- But it's not the same, 18th or 19th.
- Of course it's not the same!

No, because it depends on the signature,
so I should solve that as well, but...

Let's leave that for later.

On the other hand, to me thing with
the gardener is also very important.

- The gardener issue is solved.
- But...

Yes, it's already solved.

The ticket and all that.
We can't go together.

- I have to go and drive him.
- Perfect, perfect.

I met Juan Carlos at
a festival in Piedra Roja.

When I met him I found
him to be so nice.

So tall and slim, such a cute face.
I liked him so much.

But I don't think he liked me as much.

As I told you, Maria Isabel
remained lonely day and night

and she was forced to go and work.

She started to sing.

She was a good singer
and had a great triumph.

And then she left the country.
She visited

the whole continent of South America.

She did amazingly well!
Over there she met

a producer who turned her
into an actress.

- She had a great status.
- Really?

Sure. She returned to her country
in triumph, happy and full of glory.

And here she met a novelist
who became interested in her life.

She hadn't known him before

and she told him her origins,
since she was a peasant.

So the novelist suggested to her
to film a soap opera of her life.

- A soap opera?
- Yeah, so then she had to start

back in the times
of being a peasant and servant.

And after that

he came with his car towards the house.
We came in, ate, he changed clothes.

And we went to the beach,
a place I didn't know, so solitary.

Not even a soul.

Then he told me to undress, I was
ashamed because I had torn clothes.

And he had such nice clothes, so soft.

But when I undressed I realized that he
wasn't looking at me, can you imagine?

He wasn't looking at me. And
he was so beautiful, so gentle.

- It was something pure, you understand?
- Yes.

And we went for a swim together,
naked both of us.

Then we returned.

- Then we went to the car and left.
- Yes.

We arrived at his house, he
changed his clothes.

He said he would take me.
I had assumed to go alone.

But those were strange
things about him.

And after a while I liked them.

I began to liked them more.

- I don't know, it's something so nice.
- Maria.

- Sit down.
- Thank you.

Listen, I talked to my
associate and she agrees,

so I think you can start
working very soon.

- Do you think I can be useful to her?
- Yes, certainly.

How are you, my little girl?

- How are you?
- Fine, my little daughter. Thanks.

- Everything's fine. And how are you?
- Fine.

- Have you been feeling well?
- Yes.

Because I don't even know
what time it is.

The reason is that her
nerves are strained.

I'm stressed out, they're annoying me
because they won't leave me alone.

Yes, but I'm doing well. I'm doing well.

Tomorrow I will take you out a little
when they hold communion.

You can drink a juice, take a
walk in the park, and relax.

No. All priests are faggots.

She has communion by force.

Next week I'll move to Argentina.

I don't want to be here
when the communists come.

The radio soap opera
will continue in June.

Yes, it's a good one.

They got married just because their
parents didn't want them to.

They got married and then they left.

Pay attention to the rhyme.

Here it says:

Don't cry, my little daughter.
Don't cry.

It's alright.

Hand me my wallet.

Don't listen to her.
Why is she crying?

Take this. I have to leave.

Are you sure you'll be all right?

I'm leaving. Goodbye.

- And how is Enrique?
- More or less well.

What's the matter?

- Fine.
- You know what?

I found a victory rhyme.

I told him: The soccer club Colo-Colo
should have a victory building.

And then he said:
Hand me the carrot.

- Did you like it?
- Yes, a lot.

Tomorrow, Maria, you have to
arrive at 10 o'clock.

You have to open the store,
put everything in order, clean.

The servants surely took care of it.

But you have to look after everything.

I always arrive around 11,
that's when the public arrive.

In any case a customer may come in
before that time.

How would you attend to them?

What would you show them?
I'd like to know how you'd react.

It depends on their age.

- It depends on what they ask too.
- On what they ask, their size.

Yes. What size would a person
with my body for example have?

44...

- or 46.
- 42 or 44, yes more or less.

And the colors, what colors would
you give a person my age, for example.

Opaque colours.

And for a boy?

Coffee colours, more or less.

Orange as well. Grey. The combination
of these colours. Right?

Show me your hands.

You must take care of them.
Go have a manicure.

You must always be very fashionable,
for example that blouse

doesn't go with those pants.

But I'll teach you with time.

Now let me show you the sizes.

This shop is so disorganized.

Here they start.

These are large sizes,
all of these sizes are for tall people.

- I start with these?
- Yes, they bring more clothes on Monday.

But in general they are here,
all the large sizes.

Here are the medium sizes
for medium sized people, 40, 42.

And here are the smaller sizes.

All of these, the dresses too,
more Lolita-like.

Now I have to go.

Don Fernando waits for me at home.

He'll tell me that
my only child has died.

I'm so unfortunate.

Help me, Virgin.

Make Juan Carlos fall in love
with another.

A foreign woman who doesn't love him,
but another man.

Make this other man
fall in love with me

and make me not love him,

because I love Juan Carlos
with all my heart.

Make that woman leave Juan Carlos
for the other man.

Make that man
leave that woman for me.

Make me reject that man.

Have Juan Carlos know everything and
realize the only one who loves him, is me.

That I am the only one, Virgin Mary.

By our Lord Jesus Christ,
may it be so.

Just like the wind that's kissing
the waves in the sea,

your eyes enter my heart.

To be continued...

Disgrace

Each day more disgrace

Of this love,
this crazy love

That's what the others always feel

But whilst we love each other,
there will be no anguish

We can look at each other
and even conform

to incomprehension

They will never know that destiny

We would like to thank
the residents of Chiloe...

and countless others
whose names have not been preserved.

The world has turned us into

a vile mirror
