THE COLLECTOR

- Curves. - No.

- Cyclists. - No.

- Car. - No.

- Clue. - No clues, Dad? You get no clues.

- Give me a hint. - It's not a contest.

- Cactus? - Cactus? No, time's up.

Too bad. It was "cattle crossing."

"Cattle crossing?"

"Cattle crossing!"

When have you seen a cattle crossing sign?

A few meters back, while thinking the word.

It's not my fault you don't look at the signs.

Okay, eight to three.

- Fine, I'll start. - Come on.

Starting with... Letter m.

- Motherf... - Dad!

No, no... Mountain.

Not even close.

Baby, help me with the suitcases, please.

Dad, there is no 4G in this house.

What will we do here all week?

That's what it's all about. We're here to disconnect.

Besides, your mother needs it.

I'll see if I can find something open and get dinner.

Very good.

- I'll go with you. - Stay with Dad.

- Mom, I don't mind, I'll go with you. - I told you to stay with your father.

- I'd rather go alone. - Okay.

Well, help me with the bags.

Go on in. Don't stay outside.

- No, I don't want to disturb. - It's no bother, on the contrary.

Do you like toy soldiers?

Well, my son liked them.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

New things aren't as wonderful.

Keep it.

Well, even if I wanted to, I wouldn't know how to take it with me.

- I can't. - You'll find a way.

You haven't chosen that mirror. It chose you.

Keep it.

Money isn't an issue.

No.

Thank you, but...

No. No.

Good afternoon.

Have you been befriending the locals?

- Excuse me? - Very good.

I like it.

I don't know what you said, but she's bent on giving it to you.

One thing's for sure, I have no idea how we'll take it home.

By the way, your friend is a bit odd.

Hand me the bags and I'll get on with dinner, okay?

- I'll call him Prankster. - Yes.

Don't get your hopes up that cat isn't coming home.

He'll just be with me these days, I promise.

"I promise."

You must promise that you'll try the chicken today.

- Dad! - It's delicious.

Really, enough with the "I don't eat dead animals" nonsense.

Not just "dead animals".

- Murdered animals. - Whatever you say.

- I refuse to eat them. - No, hey. Seriously.

Really. Manuela, say something.

She'll become skin and bones with this vegetarian nonsense.

- It's okay, if that's what she wants. - Thanks.

Vegan, Dad, I'm vegan.

Eat.

We're all cursed!

- We're all cursed! - Dammit.

Thank heavens we came to a quiet village.

We're all cursed...

What?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Hello?

Is anyone there?

Hello?

Love. Love, love. What?

- What? - I saw...

Love, love, look, look at me.

- I saw him! - Manuela, Manuela, look at me.

I saw him, I swear.

- I swear, he was there. - Okay, okay.

- He was there, he was there. - Okay, okay. Breathe.

My child, I saw him.

Okay.

We're all going to die.

We're all going to die.

We're all going to die.

We're all going to die.

And a carton of milk.

Do you have soy or oat?

We don't have that here.

Well, a normal carton.

How much is it, please?

Excuse me.

I'm staying at the end of the street, at number four.

Do you know if any children live nearby?

I don't know of any kids, ma'am.

In this town, there are hardly any children left.

Any ten-year olds?

Seventeen euros and twenty cents. Have a nice day.

Hello?

Mom.

It's not funny.

Rodrigo!

Love, love, love! Hey, what's going on? What's going on?

I've seen him.

Who have you seen?

Who have you seen?

That's it.

Love. Love, love, wait.

Are you sure you want to see a witch doctor?

He's not.

The Internet says he's an esoteric specialist,

not a witch doctor.

Besides, what do we have to lose?

Respect, credibility.

Why don't we pack our bags and leave?

- We don't have to stay. - I don't want to leave yet.

- It was Pablo. - Manuela.

I have seen him.

It's not the first time.

Don't screw me.

I was awake and sober.

So, don't go that way.

Fuck it all.

Is it here for sure?

- Why don't you wait in the car? - Alone? You're kidding, right?

Hello?

Hello?

Mom, let's get out of here.

It's okay, honey.

Why are you here?

Good afternoon.

Are you Laín?

What do you want?

Well, uh...

Things are happening in the house where we're staying

and we thought that you might be able to help us.

Things?

In the evenings,

- I have seen... - Manuela.

Yes, I have seen

someone who...

Who shouldn't be there.

We're not even sure if he's...

We aren't sure if anyone is there.

Who can be sure of that?

No one is.

But you've seen him.

It's a protective crucifix.

Protective?

Against evil spirits.

Like those lamps that zap mosquitoes.

Instead of mosquitoes, it zaps spirits.

Indeed.

That's Brazilian mother-of-pearl.

Prevents migraines and other ailments.

- But how did you know I...? - I heard you.

And I smelled the candle as it moved.

Not everything can be seen with the eyes.

You don't take what I sell here seriously.

You don't have to.

But believe me, some of them work.

Because, fortunately

or unfortunately,

we're not alone.

I assure you.

I've experienced it firsthand.

What have you seen?

My son.

He disappeared two years ago and...

And I saw him.

- He was... In a mirror. - A local lady gave it to her.

Go away.

Get out of this town.

This is all I can do to help you.

No, no, no, why?

Leave as soon as you can.

That guy was a charlatan.

Migraine candles, my goodness.

- And pretending to be blind. - We don't know if he was blind or not.

No way, he could see perfectly, it was part of a show.

The only sensible thing he said is that we should leave.

Since we've bought this, I'll set it up.

Nothing will happen, you'll see.

I don't plan to leave yet,

but if you want to go, that's fine with me.

Rodrigo.

Believe me, that boy was just like Pablo.

Come on.

I think we shouldn't have bought this.

Look, what a coincidence, there are no spirits here.

- Calm down, don't worry. - Mom, what is it?

Mom!

Mom, what's going on?

Unplug it!

Bring it down.

Dad, pull the plug.

Did they enter through an open window?

No, I told you that everything was closed.

Yeah... Let's see, tell me what you heard upstairs again.

I need you to help me help my wife relax.

We must find an explanation to all this.

What do you mean?

Look.

A few years ago, my wife suffered from postpartum psychosis,

after giving birth to our second child.

It's a very severe depression that you don't always recover from.

Things got worse when...

We lost Pablo when he was eight.

He drowned in the river

and was never found.

My wife never got over it.

None of us got over it.

That's why, the first night it happened, I thought she was hallucinating.

But, tonight, I've experienced it too.

I assure you that it was anything but normal.

If you need anything, come find me.

And be careful.

MOM, COME

I like animals.

I want to go meet a bird.

I thought you were going to ask for a pet.

- Yes, I want one. - No, no.

We'd better go to the zoo.

One day, the four of us can go to the zoo.

But, a little gift, too, right?

A pet?

Mom, finally!

Mom.

My son.

Oh, you've grown.

- What is going on? - Nothing, honey, everything is fine.

Sit down.

Happy Birthday to you,

- Happy Birthday to you... - Happy Birthday to you...

Mom, sit down, Pablo has to blow out his candles

Okay.

Make a wish, little dude.

It just became true.

Well, fine, blow them out.

Hurray!

Thanks for coming.

Let's cut the cake, it's getting late.

No, no, please! No!

Don't move. It'll be worse, much worse.

Keep quiet. You'll be fine.

Keep quiet.

Don't move. You can't avoid it.

What are you doing?

Mom?

What were you doing, Olga?

Nothing. I wasn't doing anything, Mom, really.

I was going to bed.

I heard noises.

What were you doing?

What are you saying?

Really, I was going to bed.

Let me be!

Get the fuck out of my life.

I'll see you tomorrow, Mommy.

I'm going to sleep.

Rodrigo?

Why were you downstairs?

Nothing.

And that blood?

I cut myself. Nothing serious.

What's up? Can't sleep?

I was asleep and the screams woke me, what's going on?

Screaming?

Yes.

Yes, and don't tell me I was dreaming, because I wasn't. Not this time.

I was wide awake and I saw the girl...

I don't know.

I think she was torturing the cat.

And... What's going on?

Take them.

- No. - Take them!

No.

Love.

I don't want to.

Honey, it's for your own good.

Take my advice. Take my advice. Take them.

Very good.

Sit down, my love.

Those aren't my pills.

What were they?

Sleep, my love.

Mom, come down now.

Won't you sit down?

Yes, yes, yes.

You've been sleeping all fucking day.

Do you think that's a good example for your kids?

I don't know what happened.

Why are you eating that?

What should I eat? My fucking cat?

In fact, I want more.

No, please, don't cut me, no! No, no, no! Help, help! Please stop. Stop!

No!

Where are you going?

To get water.

Pablo, lend me a hand.

- We must get out of here. - No.

- Yes, yes. - No, we can't leave.

- It isn't safe here. Let's go. - No.

- Manuela? - Run!

Manuela?

Manuela!

Hello?

Hello?

Look, Mommy.

Stop. No, my love.

Let's go.

Hello?

Is anyone there?

Hello?

Hello.

I need you to help us.

Strange things are happening.

It all started with that mirror.

Look, Dad, there's light there.

Is that your son?

I didn't see him when you arrived in town.

What?

You seem very happy to be reunited with him.

What is going on?

Love.

Are you here?

- I'm afraid. - Come home.

Love...

Manuela?

Are you there?

I'm scared, Mom.

Honey.

I'm getting nervous.

Come home, sweetheart.

Cut the crap, come back home.

Manuela?

They're not here, Dad.

- Let's go to the square. - Let's go.

Where are they?

Run.

Father?

What's going on? Are you all right?

Relax. What's going on?

My husband and daughter have gone mad.

Everything... Everyone has gone mad.

Easy, easy.

Please, take a seat.

- You're safe here. - Thanks.

Did you call the authorities?

No, I don't have a phone.

Did she give you something?

Who?

Fatima.

The collector gave you an object, didn't she?

Yes.

I'm afraid there's only one thing left to do.

I can help you.

I can help you end

your pain and fear.

I can put an end to all this...

Forever

and quickly.

- It's in your best interest. - Don't come close to me.

- It's the only way out. - Stay away. Let's go.

- Mommy, where are we going? - We must cross the mirror. Run!

You have nowhere to run!

Look, Mommy.

Manuela, what are you doing?

- Run, son. Hurry. - Come here! Asshole.

- Manuela! - Run!

Open the door!

- Open the door now! - Open the fucking door!

- Open the fucking door! - Open!

Hey!

Open the door!

We have to cross the mirror. Trust me.

- Open! - I can't cross.

If you cross, we'll be separated again.

What did you say?

I cannot cross.

That's not my world anymore.

Why did you do it?

What are you saying, my love?

Mommy, you killed me.

You drowned me in the river, but I know it wasn't you.

Because you cried.

You cried a lot while you did it.

I don't want us to be separated again.

No.

No.

- What happened doesn't matter, Mom. - No.

We're together now.

No.

No.

Open the fucking door!

- No. - The door!

- No. - Open the door!

Manuela!

Forgive me.

Forgive me.

Sorry. Sorry. Sorry, my boy. No.

I love you very much.

Open!

A lot.

Negative.

No, I haven't heard anything.

But, when I woke up, I saw that she wasn't in bed.

At first, I thought she'd be in the kitchen or the basement.

But she wasn't.

She had to leave through the back door.

The patrol hasn't moved from the door since last night.

Did she take any clothes or documentation?

Nothing. She hasn't taken her medication either.

It's essential that she takes it.

You must find her, please.

As soon as we have news, we'll let you know, okay?

Love.

What is this?

A pendant.

A woman in black just gave it to me outside.

Come on, let's go.
