NETFLIX PRESENTS

Why is there nothing anymore?

Marta knows that there was a world war and illnesses arose

that we don't know how to cure.

And the planet also became very sick.

People became very scared and wanted strong governments,

and they took away our freedom.

But we're going to get it back.

Wow, you look just like my mom.

Look, the same.

Mom gave me it when she gave me this.

-So, how is she? -She's absolutely fine.

-Her mother saved her life. -In exchange for her own.

Marta Mújica, ten years old.

-Uncle Álex. -Where are you going?

-They're taking the girl, come on! -Dad!

Marta!

Marta, shit!

The girl was taken to the colonies until you and your wife find employment.

-I have to ask you a favor. -I told my wife

that we were good friends.

We were.

But not anymore.

Tell him to come by at 7:00, there will be a pass at the fence.

I killed a man, a soldier.

Leave her alone!

-What's your name? -Sara.

Sara, let's get out of here.

Hugo Mújica. Didn't you know we need a couple?

I'm sure my wife can change her plans.

You have to leave, Julia. I'm going with you.

Do you know why we don't get results?

You're a coward and didn't up the dose like I said.

These special children are our last hope.

Hey!

On the ground, quick!

Halt!

Let's go! Let's go!

-Grandma! -Don't move!

They found me!

Don't move!

Come on! Don't move!

We have to hide the girl.

Clear!

Clear!

Hey, little one...

What is it?

Put your hands up, ma'am.

Listen to me, please.

-We'll hide in here. Quick. -We are good people.

-The two girls are in my care. -Is the whore inside?

She's not a whore.

She's a girl. And she's studying sewing.

We have no money...

and that man, the soldier...

You know him?

Of course.

He comes here looking for girls...

and tries to be friendly.

But don't worry,

we aren't going to say anything, you can relax.

Enough.

No!

No! Grandma...

Grandma!

No, get off me.

MY SISTER SARA

DON'T BE AFRAID

BUILD THE FUTURE

REMEMBER THE RAIN

LAUGH AT THEM

AGAINST THE WALL

RIGHTS ARE SEIZED

THE BARRIER

You found gas?

We're taking the motorcycle.

-The motorcycle? -South, there are fewer checkpoints.

The idea is to get to Cádiz this afternoon.

-To Cádiz? -From there, we'll cross the Straight.

Carlos, wouldn't it be better to go at night? Isn't it safer?

Yes, but my contact wants to cross before dark.

Hello?

Jesus, it's Hugo!

-Hugo. -Julia.

This is Sara's husband.

-Everything okay? -Everything's fine, yes.

This is my boyfriend.

A pleasure.

What are you doing here?

Julia, I'm in trouble. They took Marta yesterday.

What do you mean they took Marta?

Yes, at the register.

It seems they're taking kids from unemployed parents.

I don't know, it's a new law.

Let's see...

-And are you okay? -Yes.

Do you need something? Can I help?

No, relax, your mom already got me a job.

-Oh, good. -Yes, it's in Sector 1.

-Completely official, I start tonight. -Thank God.

Yes, it's just that... well,

there's a problem.

The job is for a married couple.

A married couple?

Yes.

I've already been given the checkpoint passes.

They don't want just me.

Hugo and Sara.

-Yes. -You want me to pretend to be Sara?

Yes, just for a day or two,

until I have the contract and get Marta back.

-Then I'll see. -She can't, I'm sorry.

Sorry, but I'm not talking to you.

-Look... -What?

Hugo, we have to leave right now.

We've got a serious problem and we need to go.

More important than your niece's life?

-Jesus, Hugo... -Come here.

-Julia. -Carlos...

Listen to me. I had a hard time organizing all this.

There are people putting their lives at risk for us.

We have an appointment we can't miss.

If they want him, they'll hire him, married or single.

Okay, okay.

I'll tell him.

And relax.

Is there something you're not telling me?

Here.

Sorry, I can't help you.

Julia....

Sorry.

Good luck.

Carlos...

Maybe if we tell him what's going on...

You'd put him in danger. Him and your whole family.

Let's go, please.

Good morning!

Good morning! Let's go, up!

You need to put your uniform on!

Anyone arriving late won't get breakfast! Let's go.

How's it going over here? Great, excellent.

That's great. Almost done over here...

When you're ready, everyone in line.

You have to go to the bathroom before the dining room, okay? Let's go!

You're very slow this morning.

You have to wash your face, wash your hands...

Marta!

Well, well, well.

I didn't expect this from a girl that looks as smart as you.

You still don't know how to put your handkerchief on? It's so easy!

Come on, it's very easy. You put it on like this,

pull your hair back...

and you put it up.

Very good. See? Let's go.

You two get in line, quickly.

Thank you, it was my mom's.

I told you we shouldn't have come to Madrid, dammit!

It's a fucking hell hole!

Álex, stop hitting stuff, please.

And don't you feel guilty, okay?

It's this fucking government.

It was the only thing she asked of me, you know?

What?

Sara.

The only thing she asked was that I look after Marta.

I promised her that I'd protect her with my life.

And now I've lost her.

We'll find her. I promise.

Oh yeah? How?

What can I do?

The worst part is I don't know what to do.

Do you remember when Dad died?

Yes, of course.

That night, we were in bed.

I pretended to be asleep but I was terrified.

And I don't know how, but you knew and you said:

"Go on, go to sleep, it'll all be okay.

I know what we'll do."

I didn't answer back.

I had no idea what your plan was, but I believed you.

And that night, I slept like a log.

You've always known what has to be done, Hugo.

So tell me what you want me to do now and how we're going to fix it.

Because you know, Jesus!

Deep down, you know.

I'm going to cross that fucking fence and I'm getting that job.

I'll convince the family to give the contract to just me.

And you're going to go to the register to find out where Marta is.

And when we know, we're going to look for her

and we're taking her back to Asturias, the three of us.

That's what we're going to do.

I'm hungry.

We'll have breakfast after.

After what?

They inject you in there.

Well, let's get started. Héctor, come with me.

Sometimes, you vomit and get a bit tired.

But they give you yogurt.

Tell me...

Did you stab Commander Mérida?

I don't remember.

You don't remember.

Sol...

How long do you think your little sister can stay by herself?

You don't know that either?

Listen...

you are the only thing she has in this world.

And you're here.

Who was with you that night?

What have they done to you?

Can you walk?

I'll get you out of here.

-Yes. -Yes?

I'll help you.

Very well.

Very well.

Stop.

-What? -Stop, Carlos!

-What? -Stop the bike! Stop!

Mom?

Yes?

You're here.

Yes.

I need your help, Mom.

Drink.

Drink.

Navarro, prepare to release this girl in...

Half an hour?

Half an hour.

Very well.

That gave you hope, didn't it?

Now all I want is one last effort.

The woman that helped you, what was her hair like?

Long, like yours?

-Yes. -Yes?

-Yes -Very good.

She had lots of braids.

What was she wearing?

A green skirt, I think.

The one I gave her.

-Oh, really? -Yes.

It's in the closet. She left it the last time she came to see us.

Do you have it here?

Of course. I'll show you.

-Excuse me, excuse me. -Hey!

Just for a second, one second, please.

-Hey, excuse me. -I won't take long.

-Where are you going? -Come on...

Excuse me, excuse me.

I'm sorry, you need to line up like everyone else.

Do you remember me?

-Yes. You were here yesterday, right? -Can we chat for a second, please?

Excuse me. Can you cover for me for five minutes?

Thank you.

We'll be back in a minute. Sorry.

Do you remember the girl that was with me?

About this tall, really small, blondish, with a hat?

You tested her blood.

Marta. Her name is Marta Mújica.

-I don't remember, there's tons of you. -They took her to the colonies.

Well, she's lucky.

She'll be very well cared for until you find work.

I just want to know where she is. We want to go back to our village.

When they give her back, we're off.

-I don't know and I've got lots of work. -An address, at least.

I'm sure they'll tell you when the time comes.

Look, I'm not going to stop. I'm never going to stop. Understand?

I'll come back day after day. I don't care, I'll come back.

I have no job and nothing better to do in this fucking city.

-Lower your voice. -Tell me where she is, please.

Look, I'll do whatever I can to find out which colony she's been assigned to,

but I'm not promising anything.

That girl is our life. You get that, right?

Come back tomorrow.

Thank you.

-Sorry, what was your name? -Álex.

Well, Alejandro Mújica.

Mújica.

Yes. A relative of one of the children is asking too much.

-Begoña, how's it going? -Hi, Emilia.

Look, I don't want to be a bother.

You're never a bother, you know that.

It's just I need to speak with you.

-But I don't want you to worry. -Just say it, I'm getting nervous.

Is your daughter Julia here?

-Julia? No, why? -Who is it, Mom?

Begoña.

Begoña, hi.

Sara? How are you, gorgeous?

-Very well. -It's been a while.

Ages.

Hey, I heard about your daughter.

But there's no need to worry, I'm sure she's doing great.

I'm sure she's being well cared for, yes.

Listen, I came to ask about your sister.

-Julia is traveling for a few days. -Really? I saw her just a moment ago.

She came to say goodbye, Begoña.

Ah...

Well, I'll come back another day.

Of course, I'll tell her you're looking for her.

Begoña, is something wrong?

No, no, it's nothing.

I'm happy to see you, sweetie.

-Thank you, likewise. -Bye, Begoña.

Goodbye.

WANTED

Wheels.

Wheels just like new.

And cheap.

What the hell are you doing, Carlos?

What's wrong?

-They've arrested her. -What?

-Who? -The girl you helped.

-They're interrogating her. -Shit!

Shit!

-I can't believe it. -You're next.

There's a transport leaving tonight.

It's safer than us trying to travel alone.

But it's tonight or never.

-They don't know when the next will be. -Okay.

As soon as you leave work, when you cross the fence, go here.

-Go to the old M40 tunnels. -Let me see.

There.

At 11:00.

Okay?

Okay.

Now go and help that guy get his daughter back.

But tonight, we're leaving.

-You're very pretty. -Shut up.

You look like a nun, but...

Shut up.

Hey...

Thanks.

At 11:00.

For your health and safety,

entry is strictly forbidden for any person that is sick,

undocumented or improperly dressed.

Let's go!

Outside!

Let's go, quick.

Do you have anything metallic?

No.

Anything organic, any non-registered items?

No, nothing.

Quick.

This pass is for a married couple.

Yes, but my wife couldn't come right now, she'll come later.

Then you can't pass.

-Kindly step aside. -Look,

they're expecting me, it's my first day at the minister's house.

-Get out of line, dammit! -Listen to me,

I'm sure you are a father too. Please....

Stand back, God dammit!

Hugo!

Hugo!

Excuse me.

Sorry, I need to get past.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Hugo.

Forgive me, darling.

I'm really late, I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Here you go.

Citizens are beginning to gradually feel more...

WANTED

...continues to fall and is now at its lowest rate

in the last ten years.

Although certain areas of Sector 2 are still experiencing certain kinds

of theft and acts of violence, despite figures improving slowly...

Don't let that happen again.

Thank you.

Yes, thank you very much.

For your security,

have your passes and identity documents visible

and accessible to law enforcement officers.

Leave the area.

Let's go! Come on, move it!

How does it look, Hugo?

How is it?

May I?

Yes.

That's better.

She liked leaving it down.

Let's go.

-I've only got until 11:00, okay? -Yes, fine.

-Where do they get all that water? -From the sea.

They desalinate it.

Those bastards don't have the same problems we do, right?

Next stop, Area C2.

Come on through.

Thank you.

With the artichokes, please, only the core.

-Strictly the core. -Yes, ma'am.

Let's go.

Carlos, please, the flowers must be impeccable, okay?

Add a bit more oregano so it has more substance.

Yes, Mrs. Rosa.

-The celery, please... -Rosa.

One moment.

Get them to give you the special leaves to put in the soup, okay?

Okay.

Good afternoon.

I came yesterday, I'm not sure if you remember.

Yes, the well-connected ones.

Normally, I choose the maids.

The lady of the house is very precise and it is hard to get hired,

so I hope I won't be forced to fire you today.

I assure you we'll do a good job.

This is a very important job for us.

Right, well go and get showered and put on your uniforms.

-You have five minutes. -They already disinfected us.

Those squirts at the fence are only for clothes.

So go get rid of the dirt from Sector 2 and then put on your uniforms.

I'll come to supervise you.

Manuela, take the couple to the bathroom.

Of course.

Let's go!

Come with me, please.

Here is your soap and towels. And here are your uniforms.

Rosa is a good woman.

She has a temper, but she doesn't bite.

-Manuela! -Coming!

Hurry.

You'll look very elegant.

Well, look at you.

My God.

Come on.

What's that on your back?

And that? What happened to you?

I fell.

Must have been some fall.

-Nothing serious. -Right.

Come on.

Oh, goodness.

I'd completely forgotten how great a shower is.

I can't believe it.

We'll leave the drinks here.

First the glasses and then the bottles.

Never together.

Very good.

Manuela!

Yes, ma'am?

Come closer, please.

-Hugo Mújica, right? -Yes, ma'am. This is...

I'm Sara, his wife.

Yes.

The uniform suits you.

Mom.

Sweetie, let me have a look at you.

You're gorgeous.

Let's see.

But put on some heels, they don't bite, my love.

They're awful, Mom, it's like walking lame.

You're a minister's daughter and we're hosting.

Don't argue, there's a code.

A code just for women.

If they had to wear heels, you'd see how long that code would last.

Come on, get your heels.

Is there anything else you'd like, ma'am?

Everything is ready to welcome our guests, right?

-It is, ma'am. -Wonderful.

Excuse me, ma'am.

I would like to know when we could get the contract signed.

Excuse me?

Well, it's just that yesterday morning at the register, they took my daughter.

Our daughter.

Without the paperwork, it's impossible to get her back.

And may I just say thank you in advance.

Very well.

Shall we go to the dining room, please?

Yes.

Are you nuts?

You don't talk to the lady.

You aren't going to last long here.

My God.

It wasn't a brothel, Dad.

It was club, where folks go to have a good time.

With whores.

There's no other way to have fun in this city?

I really don't think there are many.

I went because sometimes it's important to be certain places with certain people.

Yes, yes, of course.

But your public relations ended with a dead guy with his pants down.

Sorry. I never wanted to get your name mixed up in something like this.

Well you have.

You were in here? I was looking for you.

-You weren't arguing were you? -No, darling. Everything's fine.

Mom, you look lovely.

And you too, little sister. Very tall.

Are we interrupting?

Álvaro! You're never interrupting, you're part of the family.

We're a bit early

because of the security checkpoints.

-Hello. -How are you?

Well.

What an outrage what happened to Commander Mérida.

Poor man.

How are you all?

-Well. -Very well.

-Some wine? -Please.

Daniela, wine for your godfather.

How is our foreign policy going, Minister?

Always worse than health.

You know your husband is the star of this government.

I'm just a satellite.

What nonsense.

-Alma. -Laura! How are you?

-Not as pretty as you. -Let me see.

Look how beautiful you are. Come on, come in.

Did you pick that jacket?

-Like it? -I love it.

Good morning.

How can I help you?

I'm Begoña Sánchez, assistant to the State.

Office number one.

Excuse me?

Informants go to office number one.

Hello. May I?

Come in.

Good morning.

I'm here because I think I can help with something.

Go ahead.

I know who it is you're looking for.

I think it's my neighbor's daughter.

I can give you the address where she lives.

Álvaro, you need that budget for canapés, don't you?

And polish for your shoes, and...

Present it to the lady.

Don't come at me with that, we're talking seriously here.

You're the very person who told me that...

Your premise is very clear.

It's very clear, we sacrifice investment for growth, again. Great!

And then what?

Enlighten us,

Great Guru.

Austerity.

The only morally defensible position is that

we are all working hard so that every citizen has at least

-enough to live on. -Right, very good.

And how do we know when it's enough?

Because those that don't have enough are living on the edge.

They're used to it, Álvaro.

People don't miss what they never knew.

-That's how it is. -Come on...

-Listen... -I'm right. Don't get mad.

One moment, please!

One moment!

I think the only morally defensible... thing to do is ask them, right?

You, for example, what do you need to be happy?

You don't have to answer.

Of course she does, we want to know.

What do you need to be happy?

The same as you, I suppose.

-I don't think so, gorgeous. -It was a good response.

Excuse me, sir, a man's looking for you, a policeman.

Yes, yes, I was expecting him.

Enrique!

Come in, please, come in.

How are you? Welcome.

Gentlemen, I'm not sure if you know Enrique Jiménez,

head of the Security Directorate General.

-Good evening. -Good evening.

The commander is investigating the murder of our dear friend Mérida.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

On the contrary, we're happy to see you, Commander.

-Don't you want to sit down? -I'm on duty, perhaps another time.

-Thank you very much. -Is it good news?

Yes, I believe so.

That's why I have to talk with the minister.

-Please excuse us. -Very well.

Let's go to my office.

You, please.

Go with the gentlemen and get them something to eat and drink.

Did you hear me?

Yes, yes, sorry. Forgive me, ma'am.

It's a preliminary report.

It's all there.

Come in.

Come in, come in.

Commander Mérida was someone very close to the president.

Do you think this could have political connotations

or was it something personal?

It's still not clear.

But the good news is that we have made our first arrest.

A poor girl who prostituted herself.

Something to drink?

No, thank you.

-Sir? -A bit of wine, please.

And this girl is the guilty party?

The prostitute?

No. But she saw everything.

So we'll soon have more arrests.

Forgive me, sir.

-It's nothing. -I'll change that. Excuse me.

One moment.

Look at me,

please.

Your face looks familiar.

-Have we seen each other before? -I don't think so, sir.

Are you going to arrest our maid, Commander?

I hope not.

Her mom was a good friend, I've known her since she was a girl.

I must be mistaken then.

Your name?

I'm Sara.

Forgive me, Sara, if I frightened you.

I'll be leaving, Minister, I won't keep you.

I didn't get a chance to greet you earlier.

You don't remember, but I knew you when you were little.

And your sister.

You have your mother's eyes.

Clean all this up and lock up.

Of course.

Take this and clear the table, they've already gone to the garden.

-Of course, Rosa. -Come on.

Hello.

-Hi. -Hi.

And who are you?

-Sergio. -Hello, Sergio.

Hey, you don't happen to know whose car that is, do you?

It's mine.

Look, this button is to accelerate...

-and this one to brake. -Amazing.

How cool! What a neat car you have.

Don't you want to play?

I'd love to, but I can't right now.

They don't let me. I'm working.

Oh, darn.

Hey,

I promise you we'll race the cars another day.

But get ready to lose, I'm really good.

I'm sure I'll win.

Well, we'll see.

Okay, go.

Gosh, Álvaro, you're drinking fast.

Is he like that with everything?

Worse.

I'll be there in a bit. Perfect.

What? Are you leaving?

-It's a CIM thing. -God.

My wife will end up discovering the vaccine for the virus.

Tonight.

I'm sure she will.

Have they let you do tests on humans yet?

Only guinea pigs.

Laura, go and convince Daniela that she looks gorgeous in that dress,

it suits her perfectly. She's crazy saying that it doesn't.

Daniela...

What's wrong with you?

You're very quiet.

Do you like that guy, the new commander?

I neither like nor dislike him.

I don't like him at all.

He's about to solve Mérida's murder.

He could be the best officer we have.

If he were just a police officer, yes.

But his is a political appointment, Luis.

The police and the military have more and more power.

We give them that power so that they can then protect us.

Right.

But when they're on top, who will protect us from them?

You're not talking politics, are you?

No. No, no, no, no.

Come on, let's go see your godchildren.

-Yes, of course. -Look...

It may seem strange to you,

but you have no idea how many people try to take something.

We aren't thieves.

Nor are the others.

But they are hungry. Today's wages.

Good night, Rai.

But there's no document here.

She's not hiring us?

Only she can tell you that.

Daniela, can you bring me my gloves? I forgot them.

-Let's go and ask her. -What do you think you're doing?

-Ma'am. -Come here, please!

-Who do you think you are? -Where do you think you're going?

Just to talk with the lady.

-Ma'am, excuse us, please. -It's fine, Rosa. Let them by.

Ma'am, I'm sorry to insist, but I need to know if you'll hire us or not.

Without that contract, we can't get our daughter back.

I don't usually sign contracts with no trial period.

-These ones, Mom? -Thank you, darling.

Listen to me, please. I don't...

But Sergio liked you.

He saw that you're a good mother.

He's not my son, but I love him as if he were.

Daniela, get their papers in order.

They need to be at the register tomorrow.

You'll have your daughter soon.

-Thank you. -Thanks so much.

Let's go, Rai.

Shall I help you?

Okay, careful with the dress.

Told you it went with the heels.

Don't talk like that.

Come with me, please.

Will you help me, Rosa?

Of course.

-I need your signatures. -Of course.

Thank you, thank you.

Hugo, I have to tell you something.

Later.

Let's go.

Okay.

-Good evening, Alma. -Good evening, Tomás.

Did the dose work?

It's too soon to tell.

-So far, the results are positive. -Perfect.

Come on, that's it. A little more. Come on.

Tomorrow morning, I want a report with all the final results.

Alright, Alma. You'll have it.

Come on, you'll feel much better now, you'll see.

See? You look better already.

Bye, Jorge.

-Good evening, Madame Director. -Good evening.

Hi, cutie.

How are you feeling?

How are you feeling?

Don't be scared, princess. It's nothing.

You rest with the angels...

and tomorrow you will feel much better.

What's this?

It is forbidden to have personal items.

Please.

Please.

Let's do this,

I'll store it for you.

Will you give it to me when I leave?

Of course I will. I promise.

Go on, sleep.

Go on.

You'll be fine tomorrow.

I'll take care of it.

Sleep.

Good night, my princess.

It mustn't happen again.

You know what to do.

For your safety, please have your safe conduct and your documents...

Hugo...

...available to law enforcement.

What I had to tell you...

You don't have to tell me anything, I mean it.

I just need you to know something.

I have to get out of Madrid.

As soon as possible.

Carlos is waiting for me in the old M40 tunnels.

Julia...

tell me it has nothing to do with the guy who got killed.

That guy was abusing a minor.

I found myself there and I couldn't ignore it.

-You don't know what he... -It's okay.

I'm sure you did what you had to.

Okay?

You're going to get the girl back, right?

Of course I'm going to get her back. I have the papers.

-They have to give her back to me. -Yes.

I want to ask for a favor.

Go ahead.

I need you to take care of my mother.

I'm worried about leaving her now, after Sara, she...

-Relax, she'll be fine. -Yeah...

Especially knowing you're safe.

Julia...

I'll never forget what you did for me.

Ever.

Take care of yourself.

You too.

For your safety, citizens are asked to return to their homes.

-Come on! -Open the door!

Open the door!

The door!

-Open the door! -The door!

Open the door!

Freeze! Get down!

Get down!

Freeze!

It's a pleasure to have you here.

Commander, whenever you're ready.

Please.

Commander, first of all, I wanted to congratulate you

on the speed with which you solved the case.

I appreciate that, but the congratulations aren't just for me,

but for the whole Security Directorate General

and above all, for the honest and peaceful

population, which is most of this country,

to which I'd like to take the opportunity to send a message.

I am addressing you as the new commander of State Security

to give you some important news.

The murderer of Commander Mérida was shot down

while attempting to flee the capital.

We must once again thank

the security forces of New Spain

for their wonderful police work.

Oh, look,

you dropped this.

Lucky we were here to take it, huh?

Freeze, don't shoot!

It was an exemplary investigation

due to its effectiveness,

due to its speed.

We live in difficult times

and we can't afford to show

the slightest weakness to our enemies.

But you can sleep peacefully.

We'll continue to ensure the prosperity and security of us all.

Of the elderly...

of the families...

Hello.

Good evening.

...of the less fortunate...

and of all the good people in this country.

Emilia, look at this.

We will make every necessary effort to ensure peace

and coexistence for our citizens.

And rest assured

that our enemies will only find defeat.

What time is it?

It's past 11:00.

They're late.

Because our hand will not tremble when it comes to preventing anyone,

absolutely anyone,

from altering the stability that we have worked so hard to achieve.

Run!

Run!

Come on, let's go!

Good night

and remember...

the future belongs to us.

Enrique Jiménez arrested the terrorist who killed the commander.

Son of a...

-Stop. -Don't shoot.

Hands where I can see them.

These are the special kids.

I want my niece back.

Meet me at my place this afternoon. Would you like to?

I'll handle it.

I can't imagine what we'd do without this regime.

-Where did you get it? -I just brought it home.

This is not a game. You get killed for less.

This city is prosperous and safe,

if you don't get into trouble.

Let's go.

We don't have to use animals or create the antigen. It was the children.

-If we up the dose, they can't take it. -Tomás, research is risky.

You may be an asshole, but I can be worse

because I have a girl who depends on her dad

not getting down on assholes like you.

My angels.
