MILITARY TENT CAMILA

This is a fantastic technique to help you remember

without harming your face or damaging your lovely little body.

Let me explain.

I'll place this damp cloth on your face.

And you'll see that you'll immediately

stop breathing.

And, like magic, you'll remember everything.

Well, if that doesn't happen,

your lungs will start to contract.

Now, if I go too far,

I could severely damage your brain.

But I don't think that will happen. You are a very smart girl,

and you'll surely remember everything before that happens.

Make some noise.

To the citizens

- of the Federal District... - Safe travels.

...for your own safety, please...

Help!

EVERY MINUTE COUNTS

Chave.

39 HOURS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

What are you doing here? It's 10:00 p.m.

SURVIVOR TENTS CHAVE AND VICTORIA

You should go home.

No way. They need every hand they can get here and everywhere.

Dr. Carlos asked me to bring this here and give it to you.

Let's see.

What's this?

Leave it here. I'll take care of it.

Okay. I'm heading to CONALEP. They were pulling more people out.

If needed, we can take in more people here.

By the way, you have an admirer over there.

Come on. What do you mean?

Some guy named Pepín. He won't stop asking about you.

Anyway, I'm off to deliver this. It's probably urgent.

To the citizens of the Federal District, for your own safety,

please do not approach collapse zones.

Stay calm and remain at home or with relatives.

Our army is working.

Thank you.

Valenzuela.

At your command, Captain.

Why the hell did you let a civilian into a restricted area?

No, no...

You know what? I'm staying here.

- What did you say, Captain? - You heard me. I'm staying here.

Go on. Go to the colonel's tent.

Now!

I thought something had happened to you.

No, no.

It was Ángel, but he's fine now.

Good.

What is this?

A confession. I'm making a copy to give to Ángel.

A confession about what?

One, two, three.

My name is Ignacio Zambrano Aguilar,

I am an official with the Secretariat of Tourism,

and I was directly involved in the response...

or rather, the lack of response from the Mexican government

after the September 19 earthquake.

Daddy,

are you okay?

Yes, sweetie, I'm fine. Don't worry.

You look sick.

No, no, not at all.

I'm just a little tired, that's all.

Okay.

- I love you both. - We love you too.

Get some rest.

It's done.

Thanks.

How could you do something like that? Huh?

I'll tell you everything when I get back, okay?

- Okay. - I promise.

GENERAL HOSPITAL RUBBLE CARLOS AND ÁNGEL

I don't know what I would've thought if they'd told me in med school

that I'd have to do this someday.

Oh, my God.

Doctor!

Help!

Is that you? Are you there? Help me!

Ready?

Yes, ready.

Hit the belt.

Take it easy, Doctor.

Yes! I can hear you now!

Yes, it's me. Rosario!

- I'm here! - Can you hear her?

- Who? - Are you close?

- I can't hear anything, Doctor. - Listen. Pay attention.

Help me, please. You're close.

Are you okay, Doctor?

Rosario, if you can hear us, we're here!

Stay calm, Doctor. Be more careful.

Shine the light over here.

I'm so sorry, Doctor.

Please do not approach collapse zones.

Stay calm and remain at home or with...

I love that you resist.

Our army is working.

But don't resist so much because...

I'll have to get tougher.

How long have you been a journalist?

Come on, talk.

You won't say anything?

In this country...

the worst thing a journalist can do is mess with the army.

Why make enemies?

Look,

you're going to tell me right now

what you recorded with that camera,

and I'll let you go.

And you'll go as far away as possible.

Because if we ever cross paths again...

Excuse me, Colonel.

What are you doing here?

Captain Espitia sent me.

Out!

To all citizens of the Federal District,

for your own safety, please do not approach collapse zones.

Stay calm and remain at home or with relatives.

Our army is working.

- Laura, to the medical tent, please. - Hilda.

- What are you doing here, sir? - Where is Ángel?

Dr. Zambrano? You took him.

But if he comes back, we won't let you take him again.

Look, with all due respect, it's none of your business.

Either way, that's not why I came.

I came to apologize.

He can't not be here. He has to be here.

I'm telling you the truth. I don't know where he is.

Stay calm and remain at home or with relatives.

Our army is working.

No...

Hey! What are you doing there? You can't--

What are you doing here?

We are doing your job. Are you going to help us or not?

To all citizens of the Federal District,

for your own safety, please do not approach collapse zones.

Stay calm and remain at home or with relatives.

Rosario...

Rosario...

Ángel.

Where were you? I was worried about you.

I came here.

Are you okay?

I understand.

Look...

Ángel, please, just listen to me.

Let's talk for a minute--

- There's nothing to talk about. - No, just listen. Don't interrupt me.

So you can understand.

Ángel, I know I made...

Look, I came to apologize.

It's too late.

I feel sorry for you.

Doctor.

What's wrong?

The colonel has Miss Camila in the tents.

To all citizens of the Federal District, for your own safety, please...

You have no idea...

how many accidents I've been in.

Where a gun just goes off.

Colonel!

What the hell is it now?

The doctors were in the tunnel.

They pulled out a dead nurse and baby.

What are you talking about?

Ignacio Zambrano came too. It's chaos out there.

Let me talk.

- Where is she? - This is a restricted area.

Can you explain what's happening in there?

I don't have to give you any explanation.

I only answer to the president.

Yes, I'm here on his behalf. Release that journalist immediately.

- You okay? - Yes.

- Did something happen to you? - No, no.

- Murderers! Criminals! - Turn that off!

Yes, sir.

You're getting yourself into trouble.

You ordered us to keep that girl away from the collapse.

Yes, but not to tie her up or torture her.

Those are serious accusations. Especially without proof.

I'm going to report this.

Your brother disobeyed military orders.

He put his and the doctor's lives at risk. Will you report that too?

Be very careful what you do next.

I'm not afraid of men in suits.

You exist to follow orders. Nothing more, nothing less.

From now on, you'll let in anyone who wants to help.

Understood?

Don't worry, I'm fine.

- They didn't do anything to me. - They didn't touch you?

Everything okay?

Are you okay?

Yes.

Any idea why they arrested you?

The colonel and his men are stealing from the collapse zones, even medicines.

They're storing it all in a warehouse. I recorded everything with Jack's camera.

The American reporter.

I guess that's why.

They wanted to know where it was.

And where's the camera?

Hidden, in a safe place.

The colonel threatened me.

He told me every single thing he was willing to do to me.

He has too much power.

It's not right.

I'm going to Los Pinos.

I'll make them accept international aid, no matter what.

Better that than staying home, regretting it, right?

Yeah, better than staying home.

We are moving the body now.

I thought maybe you would want to say goodbye.

If anything happens to me...

could you give this to the press?

But what could happen to you?

Nothing.

Keep it.

If anything happens to me, you know what to do.

Count on it.

Thank you.

Jack.

Jack.

Jack.

Here, I'll help you.

Carefully.

Slowly. Carefully.

Sorry about your friends.

Aren't you going to say bye to me?

Thank you for everything, ma'am.

To you, thank you.

He's alive. You saved him.

Really... thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

You know who to take her to.

If...

If Chavela asks about me...

Thank you.

...tell her I'm fine.

Thanks to you.

She's your wife, right?

I had a feeling.

Well, see you.

Here, let me help.

You two make a nice couple.

Good evening. I'll check you.

Paseo de la Reforma 2414.

What's at Paseo de la Reforma 2414?

Know how to get there?

Where don't I?

Here's your coffee.

Thanks.

Why those faces? What's wrong?

No. Everything's fine.

We just still have the smell stuck in our noses.

It's not easy, Pepín.

I didn't want to admit it...

- but I think it's time to go back. - Why?

My son used to work in the mine.

A tunnel collapsed on him.

But it wasn't your fault.

He was the same age as the boys we rescued.

And I realized I have a lot of unfinished business in San Luis.

But if you guys want to go back too--

- No, we're staying. - No. You brought us here.

We came here to work in your name.

We'll carry on. There's a lot to do, right?

Thank you.

Thanks for everything.

Thanks.

Doctor.

What's wrong?

Why don't you trust us?

What?

Can I be completely honest with you?

It's clear that Rosario had been dead for more than 24 hours.

Probably since you got trapped in the collapse.

What does that have to do with trust?

You need to rest.

Mónica and I can handle things, but you have to trust us.

It's just that I can't do anything else.

I understand.

And I know extra hands are a big help, and we don't have your experience,

but we need you rested and clear-headed.

Doctor, I know I haven't been well for months.

- Yes. - But I can't leave.

- I can't sleep. - Not even a short break?

No, thank you, Doctor.

Ángel.

I'll leave you both.

Jack has the material we can use to show what's happening.

Where is it?

I have it.

I hid it well after I was in the military warehouse.

So what are you going to do?

We have to show it to the US ambassador.

This is our last chance.

But first, I need to remember where I left it and get it back.

What?

No... You have it, but you don't know where?

Remember, I'm not from here.

- Dober. - Yeah.

- Comosama. - Girl.

What's up, girl?

How are you? We thought something had happened to you,

that those cops took you, that you were--

What's it called?

That place where they play baseball.

The Seguro baseball field.

Don't lie.

You said she betrayed us and stole the car.

- What are you doing? - Well, we dressed like this

so the guys in green wouldn't find us.

I need your help.

Do you remember where we stopped after we left the military warehouse?

Yeah, wasn't it...

In that little alley by the Eduardo Molina Sports Center.

Between Morelos and 20 de Noviembre.

I think that's enough to get there.

Are you really going there alone?

Or you could take me.

The thing is, we don't have the car anymore.

What happened?

The soldiers took it.

I have a way to take you.

I know the area.

All right, let's go.

Mr. Zambrano?

It's late and we've been ordered to close every entryway.

I'm here to speak with the president.

I wouldn't be here if it weren't an emergency.

Mr. Zambrano is here.

He has something urgent to tell the president.

Let him through.

Go ahead.

Open the gate.
