..the awakening of a time that changed us.

You will return...

..to be a child,...

..when remembering the long sunny afternoons.

Tell me what you have found in your long journey...

..tell me how it went if you have known happiness.

Tell me, how it went if you have known happiness.

You will feel...

..the sweet embrace...

..of those parents who gave everything for you.

The taste...

..of the first kiss,...

..all the dreams that you wanted to fulfill.

Tell me what you have found in your long journey...

Tell me how it went...

(In 1968 I was 8 years old, now they say that in 1968...

..it was a revolutionary year and it was at least for me).

(At that time I wasn't for revolutions...

..I was worried about other things, for example, that the poor fugitive

..was always on the run when he hadn't killed anyone).

(I was also worried that the TV my father bought...

..wouldn't arrive in time for the Eurovision Festival).

(Dad was worried that there would be work, peace, and health...

..and mom wanted there to be health, peace, and work).

(My parents had gone through many hardships, my grandmother even more).

(Now she was a woman of much point and few words).

(Toni, my older brother, the only thing he was worried about...

..was music, girls, and teenage acne).

Dinner time!

Kid, dinner time.

Kiddo, dinner time! (Before we had television

..people still talked at the table, well, my father talked...

..and the rest of us would answer). And the girl, what? Is she coming or not?

She must have been delayed. Come on, let's go, the soup is getting cold.

Why can we never have dinner all together?

(Inés, my older sister, spent her life saying goodbye to her boyfriend).

(I didn't understand why it took them so long to say goodbye).

Hello. I'm late, sorry. It would be strange if you arrived on time.

And that skirt, has it shrunk again? It's the fashion.

There are fashions and fashions. Grandma, don't start.

Grandma is right.

When are they going to bring the TV? On Friday.

And how is it, dad? The TV? Well, it's very beautiful,

..it has a very large gray screen 4 buttons on the right,

..it's very heavy, seems good. Oh, and it has UHF.

Really? Of course, two channels.

And when are they going to install the antenna? When they bring it.

I don't know how you're going to pay for it. We're going to pay in installments.

Things are bought when you have money.

Toni, you're making me nervous, have you gone mute?

Toni turns off the news and puts on music.

The news hasn't finished. It's over now.

They haven't broadcast the bullfights yet. Put on the news and sit down.

What an obsession with listening to the bullfighting chronicle during lunch.

I always listen to the bullfights. And I listen to Los Bravos.

Can't you listen to them later? No, it's ending...

..and they're at the Price in concert. Here, listen to it.

With this in the background? Well, you can't hear Los Bravos!

(That's how my family was in 1968. Remembering it feels like talking

..about other people and another country and not so many years have passed...

..but we've all changed so much in such a short time...

..that even my family seems unrecognizable to me).

(Luis was my best friend, he was nearsighted and was almost always sick...

..Luis and I were the weaklings of the class...

..but we were about to become supermen...

..from now on no one would dare to mess with us)

Do you notice anything? I think I have more volume.

You're the same as yesterday. You can't tell the difference...

..until two weeks from now. Here it says: "Thanks to the tension

..dynamic of the definition of muscle volume...

..it will develop progressively".

Look, Mrs. Felisa. Let's go.

Mrs. Felisa. -What's up?

The Domund again?

Mr. Venancio left them for us for the parish works.

I don't have change. You could put in a 500 bill.

If the leak falls on you then don't complain.

(Both): Stingy!

What's wrong with you?

She told me she won't give it to me. Why?

She says they're all given but it's a lie.

There were 4 in his office, I saw them and on top of that he told me...

..that he never sees my mother at mass, worse for him...

..I'm sure I could get more money than anyone.

You can ask with us. -No, I want a piggy bank for myself.

Man, we're building muscles. Look. I don't feel like it.

I don't want a piggy bank anymore even if he tells me tomorrow that he'll give it to me.

Do we trade duplicates?

Do you want Gertru's? Yes, but I don't have it as a duplicate...

..because it comes out very little. I'll trade it for Gárate.

Alright. I don't mind not having a piggy bank...

..better for me. I'm going home. I'd rather not have a piggy bank.

(My friend's mother was a single mother...

..but in the neighborhood, everyone thought the worst).

(When she went to the market, people would move away from her a bit

..but I was friends with her son who was named Josete...

..and he played better than anyone at marbles).

They didn't give him the piggy bank because of his mother.

Prostitutes don't believe in God. The ones who don't believe are the whores...

..but prostitutes do. My sister says they're just...

..people's gossip.

My mother told my father that if he looked at her again, he'd remember it.

(I would have put in money if I had it just to make a good impression...

..with D. Venancio and he was a priest who commanded respect from everyone)

But, Arturo, it says here 3,000 duros for cables.

We have to wire the whole church, put in sockets, install the sound system

I'm thinking of removing it even if I go hoarse.

And are you going to say mass in sign language?

Where do these 5,000 duros come from? -The materials, the labor...

..the roof... I gave him the cost price.

Cost price? -I'll lower it by 300.

What kind of lousy discount is that? You have to lower it by 10% of the total.

You're going to ruin me! -And don't haggle with me...

..it's not very Christian. -Your church is going to cost me money.

My church? Do you think I'm the Pope?

5% and no more talk, I have my family, two kids...

Deal.

What's up? -You told us to come for the piggy bank

Ah! Chinese or black? -Black.

Chinese.

Where are you going now? -To the street to ask.

And why don't you start with this nice gentleman?

Are you trying to ruin me? -Aren't you going to give them 5 duros each?

Alright.

Goodbye. -May God repay you.

That's how good Christians earn heaven.

"The Spanish Broadcasting Society presents...

Music.

.."Ama Rosa".

"With the great company of actors from Radio Madrid..."

..and the reappearance in Spain of the popular Hispanic-American actor

..Doroteo Martín."

(At that time there were still picturesque characters in the neighborhoods

..like Cervan who listened to radio dramas and dreamed of the day

..the king would return because he was a tremendous monarchist).

(People said his girlfriend left him and he went a little crazy).

I'm Ama Rosa, love me, my son! Yes, I will always love you.

Let's see if we can have a little respect.

Are you sure? -Abroad, all of them.

And do they come with instructions? -It's just that they were in French.

Maybe it's dangerous. -Didn't I tell you that abroad

..they take them all? Besides, they sell them at the pharmacy.

What are you doing here? To fix the church.

Out, go beg somewhere else. -I only have 10-cent coins.

Thank you. -You're welcome.

They fell outside, so it must be the will of the Lord.

"Antonio had knelt beside the bed and D Isabel as she approached...

..thought he was praying."

"She soon realized it was his wife..."

Shall we ask Cervan? It's time for the radio dramas.

Don't you see he's hypnotized? Just to try.

Hello, Cervan, give me 4 sacis. The radio drama is heard.

Have the new comics arrived? "I need to cry and I can't."

"I can't, my God!" -There are many women...

..you'll find another one and if not better for you, the lone ox licks itself well.

"I don't think I'll make it through the night." -People don't just die...

..just like that, she's full of stories.

"I just confessed and took communion but I don't feel at ease...

..it's so difficult for a mother to say certain things..."

Now they cry and the next second they're pulling one of their tricks...

..as far as I'm concerned, you can cry all you want.

It's over. She's neither sick nor anything and a lot of confessing...

..but then she does whatever she wants.

For the parish works. To renovate the church.

Come on! Out!

Hey, and not getting married. -Come on!

(My father worked in the Ministry of Agriculture in the mornings...

..and in the afternoons he did hours at a printing house...

..sometimes he helped my mother sew pants at night).

(I had decided not to grow up...

..adults did nothing but work).

What are you doing here? And the homework? Both of you, home.

It's just that we haven't gotten anything. Give me something.

No, I've already given you enough. Look, who's come to visit us.

If you keep this up, D. Venancio is going to build himself a cathedral.

It's just that no one gives us anything, we're the last in the class.

There's no need to give them anything. Here I have two little coins for each of you.

And what about you, aren't you going to give anything? Do you know what's happening?...

..that these are reds and atheists. You've already heard D. Pablo.

Aren't you going to dig into your pockets for the parish renovations?

Come on, kids. Let's go.

Dear brothers in our Lord Jesus Christ, today's homily...

(Father Venancio had three obsessions...

..lust, debauchery and Real Madrid).

(I thought lust was living in a palace...

..and debauchery was a car breakdown...

..when Real Madrid was doing poorly, he gave us his most fiery sermon,

..the one about the two paths). Life has two paths...

..there is an easy path to walk because it is the path of perdition

..and there is another narrow path, full of thorns, of sacrifices...

..but that leads to salvation, a path where there is no room for...

..those dances and fashions that deceive our young people.

Youth no longer have examples at home and they don't have them...

..because their parents are prostrated before the golden calf...

..obsessed with accumulating more and more material goods...

..cars, refrigerators, washing machines, televisions.

It is a homily of alert, a homily of warning.

It is more a homily of warning than of alert...

1898. Remember, children, always this date.

(D. Severiano didn't care about material goods,...

..lust and debauchery).

(For our teacher, the blame for all evils was perfidy

..the perfidy of the Anglo-Saxons who, to top it off, are Protestants).

(At 8 years old, we knew that the Protestants were to blame for everything

..of course, the atheists and the communists were even worse).

1898, never forget that date.

H-4. H-4 water. F-9.

F-9 water.

It was an empire that had to resist the perfidy of Lutheranism...

..first with the English privateers and later with those wicked Americans

..who left Cuba orphaned from the motherland.

H-5.

H-5 hit. H-6.

H-6 hit.

And they provoked a war to take away our glorious past.

H-7. Sunk!

Alcántara, very good, very good. Indeed, the Maine was sunk

..by themselves, thus provoking the loss of Cuba forever.

(My sister and her boyfriend kept saying goodbye).

(The boyfriend's name was Jesús and he was very annoying, he was 21 years old...

..and worked at Galerías Preciados, he only talked about money).

(I think my sister put up with him because he was her boyfriend...

..at that time you couldn't change boyfriends just like that).

Can you tell me where you've been? I've been begging for alms.

And did you get much? So-so.

Let's see if you can manage with this. That's not even enough for holy water.

Look at this kid. Come on, head home.

Should I tell dad that you're here kissing?

(I wasn't a blackmailer but with my sister's boyfriend...

..I made an exception. Besides, it was for a good cause).

What do you want? The will.

Don't give him more. Carlos, leave.

God will reward you. Yeah, yeah.

Come on, go home, you're soaked.

Coughs.

You're burning up. How could you think of going out to ask...

..with this weather? I have very little.

So what? Shut up and raise your arm. Put a patch on him, Sister Virginia.

That's not used anymore. Well, I always put it on you.

If they're cold. Bring the pyramidon he has a fever.

(Grandma didn't believe in pills she cured everything with bicarbonate...

..garlic soups and miraculous herbs brought from the village).

(The Sister Virginia patch was for cases of extreme severity...

..now they'd say she was a naturalist but back then she was old-fashioned).

(In 1968 people still believed in progress).

I can't find the pyramidon. Look in Inés's room.

Yes, I'm going.

What's that? -A television.

Good thing it's for the 1st. -Who is it for?

Antonio Alcántara. -It's a television and a big one too.

He won't have to sew pants or anything to pay for it.

Good evening. May I come in? Thank you.

They were on the girl's nightstand. How are you, son?

Not well because he has 39.5. Wrap him up, he needs to sweat a lot.

Aren't they knocking? I'm shivering.

We'll see if you haven't caught pneumonia.

You'll see, I'll be fine tomorrow. That's what you think.

It's the TV people. Oh, I'm coming.

You stay put. Oh, my God, what worries.

Take the pill. What an idea to get soaked like that.

I'll stay here with you, I don't even plan to look at that contraption.

Antonio. What?

We got up to watch TV. At this hour?

Come on, man. They haven't even set up the antenna.

Yeah, that's why I'm saying, to watch it. To watch it, he says. Watch what?

Go to sleep, I'm exhausted.

Antonio. What?

Aren't you excited that we have a television?

Well, no. Why should it excite me?

Because it's a luxury and we've never had luxuries.

Aren't you excited that we can watch singers, bullfights, and movies?

Like this, all together at home.

Antonio. Antonio!

Merche! Come on, look at me.

Do me a favor, man, let's watch TV.

(Between the fever and the arrival of the TV, I couldn't sleep).

(It seemed like magic, now I could go to school and talk...

..from last night's programs...

..follow the adventures of the fugitive...

..and watch the Eurovision contest, I was no longer a pariah!).

"My son has married a very nice Andalusian woman...

..and they have two children, I know that with Federico I would live very well...

..but I can't take the final step...

Very well done. I shouldn't live with you either.

Where are you going to be better than here? Shh, I can't hear.

"I'm over 50 years old and modestly my life is settled...

..I have nothing against my daughter-in-law..."

Neither do I against Antonio but I'm a burden.

You're not a burden.

"I send you a warm greeting. A worried widow."

"My recommendation is not to leave your house."

This Elena Francis has no idea. Of course she does.

"I think even though your children love you..."

You don't know what it's like to be alone. You have your family, your daughter...

..your three grandchildren who adore you and a wonderful son-in-law.

You know what I say? That Mrs. Francis is over.

I'm eager to have the television.

To not talk at the table? Of course we're going to talk.

I'm not even going to look at it.

Why won't you watch it? Because it's an invention of the devil.

And who said that? Mr. Venancio. Isn't that enough?

What I don't understand is why they don't install the antenna.

But they sure charged the first installment.

The antenna installer couldn't come.

If he doesn't come before Saturday, we'll miss Eurovision.

The antenna installer doesn't come, nor the doctor, nor anyone.

The doctor should be arriving. But the fever doesn't go down.

Did you give him the pyramidon? Another two a while ago...

..but since you insisted on not putting patches, Sister Virginia.

What pills did you give him? Pyramidon.

From the tube on my nightstand? Of course. Oh, it must be the doctor!

Make sure when you take the medicines you put them back in their place.

Well, he still has a fever. He's been like this since yesterday.

He came home soaked. It's just a cold, right?

I didn't call yesterday because I thought the pyramidon would lower the fever.

Open your mouth and stick out your tongue. Yesterday it was very red.

How many pills has he taken? 4; 2 yesterday and 2 today.

Aren't they expired? Because expired medicines should be thrown away.

Where's the tube, son?

Grandma must have left it somewhere. Mother!

Take one of these pills every 8 hours.

Mother, I'm calling you. What's going on?

And the pyramidon? I have it. I gave him 2 a while ago.

Are they expired? Did you give this to the child?

Why, are they bad? No. Come with me.

Bundle up.

What's happening? They are anovulatory pills.

What? Anovulatory pills, Mercedes.

What is that? Birth control pills.

What is used to not get pregnant.

To not have...? Yes, to not have children.

Mr. Vicente, you know that I... Don't tell me anything.

At least you could keep them in a safer place.

What's happening? Nothing, mother.

You and I need to talk. I don't think anything bad will happen...

..but I'll have to consult it. What could happen?

Nothing. Oh, if her hair falls out or her teeth or she becomes sterile...

..or gets cancer. Cancer?

Does she have cancer? No!

Calm down, no one becomes sterile just like that.

What is sterile?You still have many years to have children.

(I thought it was just a flu and now it turns out she had cancer...

..that her hair and teeth would fall out and she wouldn't have children

..and all because of some pills).

Who gave you those pills? A friend, they brought them from Paris.

As if it were a perfume! I'm sure it was something from Pili.

She's something! Don't shout.

Don't shout! If your father finds out he'll kill you.

Don't tell dad. And what am I going to say...

..that his daughter is a loose woman who stuffs herself with those pills...

Contraceptives. That's it.

And I don't stuff myself, you take one a day. You're going to drive me crazy!

What I want to tell you... You're not getting married!

You stay single and sick because those pills cause cancer.

But how can they cause cancer. Uterine cancer, I read it.

That's what Isabel died of, I'm sure she took those pills...

..of course she wasn't clean wheat like that Pili!

I'm very healthy. I'm sure you already have the tumor...

..either we operate in America or there's nothing to be done.

And where are we going to get money to go to America?

You don't let me explain and don't shout so much or they'll hear us.

(I found out everything although I didn't understand much).

(I understood that my sister took the same poisonous pills

..and had cancer and would die if she wasn't operated on soon in America).

(For me it was already too late, I would die without seeing the Eurovision Festival

..and without knowing how The Fugitive ended).

Are you awake? All I want is for you to be happy...

..and everything I say I say for your own good, daughter.

I know, mom. Then don't lie to me again.

But I've never lied to you. You hadn't told me...

..that you were taking those pills and having relations with Jesús.

I'm not taking anything, nor doing anything with Jesús. What do you mean no?

No. Jesús and you don't...?

Haven't you taken the pills either? Neither.

Then tell me why you have them.

I have them just in case because I'm thinking about it.

She's thinking about it! Daughter, I don't understand anything.

Imagine you're 18 years old. Me, 18 years old, daughter.

Yes, you now in 1968 and you just met dad.

I can't imagine him with those long hair and those flower shirts...

..and me with a miniskirt. When I was your age...

..I had such beautiful legs but I couldn't show them off.

Those were different times and now things are changing.

Don't think I don't notice but do you know what happens?...

..that it's hard for me to talk about these things with you.

At your age, I didn't talk about these things with grandma...

..and it makes me feel uneasy. Do you understand me?

Of course I understand you. I would like us to talk more.

I would like that too. I'm just so confused.

And so am I.

Are you sure you're dying? But you don't have a fever anymore.

No, but I have uterine cancer. Uterine?

And what is the uterus? I don't know, give me the dictionary.

This one? Yes, the red one.

Marital, marriage, Madrilenian, here is uterus...

.."viscera of the reproductive system of female mammals".

Just what you needed, having a uterus like girls.

I can't have children anymore. Of course, if you're half girl.

It's because the cancer has made me sterile.

And what are you going to do? I don't know.

(I did know but I didn't want to tell anyone, I had a plan...

..a plan worthy of Captain Thunder or the Masked Warrior).

(D. Venancio would understand. Maybe because of me...

..the parish couldn't be completely fixed...

..but Inés's issue was much more important).

Tell him something, he's going to kill himself. Be careful, you might fall.

I'm not going to fall. Ramón, how's it going?

Almost done, grab the cable and plug it in.

What? Plug in the cable...

..let's see how it looks. The antenna?

That's it. Okay. Go ahead.

I'm going to plug it in.

Let's see if we can see something.

And where does this go?

All you see are stripes.

That friend of yours knows about antennas as much as I do.

Have a little patience, he's setting it up.

You can see something now. Is that all you can see?

I'm not even going to look at it. Don't you see he's setting it up?

First they take your money and then...

Music. Look.

Look how good it looks.

I'm going to the print shop I'm running late.

Come back soon, we're all going to watch the festival together.

I'll come soon, even Mr. Pablo will want to see it too.

Let's not watch TV so close or we'll go blind.

How does it look? Great.

Stop by the bar later because I don't have time now and I'll treat you to something.

You have to watch TV from three and a half meters away.

Leave it on for a little while so it warms up.

Let's go.

It's from Carlos. Come.

What do you mean he's gone? Where did he go?

"I know that with the money from the piggy bank it's not enough for Inés's operation...

..in America but I'm also leaving you my savings book with the 475 pesetas.

Oh my God, my boy! "I'm leaving because I don't want to be...

..a burden to you. I know that my situation has no remedy...

..and I have a few days left to live." Mom, it's my fault.

No, dear, it's just that your brother has a wild imagination...

..with all the comics he reads. Tell Toni, we have to find him...

..before your father finds out. Put away the piggy bank...

..and not a word to your grandmother. Let's look for him around the neighborhood.

You go that way and we'll go this way.

Don't worry, Robin Hood also stole.

Yeah, but not from priests and on top of that I'm going to die in mortal sin.

Are you sure you're dying? My hair is already falling out. Look.

I see it the same. No way, it's falling out in clumps. Ouch!

Damn, that hurts! See?, it's not falling out.

I'm going to go bald. What does it matter, if you're going to kick the bucket.

And what are you going to do? Run away far away...

..where the police can't find me.

Like The Fugitive? And where are you going to sleep?

Tonight here and the other days around.

But you're going to starve. No way.

Why are you bringing a roll of paper?

What do you think? You're going to miss Massiel.

What bad luck, we buy a television and I become sterile.

I have to go. -If you want, I'll stay a little longer.

No, leave.

Oh, wait, here, I'll give it to you. For me?

Finish the collection for me. I'm giving it to you in case you need to hunt.

It has everything, knife, spoon, fork, can opener.

Is it for me? It's great. Your mother will return it to me...

..when you die.

If you need to defend yourself from the police use it too.

I'll come see you tomorrow.

Tell my father that I love him very much and my mother and everyone.

Hey, come here! Don't tell anyone where I am. Do you swear?

What if we call the police? -That and let dad find out.

I hope nothing bad happened to him!

What a mess you've made with the pills If he's not at Luis's house...

..or anywhere, he's lost.

Let's wait, when he gets hungry he'll surely show up.

Oh my, it's already night. And if he's at Josete's house.

I'm going to see. You're not going up to that house...

..I'll call his mother on the phone.

It's still busy. Who are you calling?

Nothing, mother, a neighbor.

Who's there?

Come on, don't play dumb and show your face.

Hello, Cervan. What are you doing there?

Nothing, I came down but I have my mother's permission.

Spill it, man.

It's just that I won't be able to have kids. Don't tell me!

Not one. That's a problem.

Do you have a girlfriend? No.

When you have one, she'll be quite upset when she finds out.

I'm not going to have a girlfriend either, I'm going to die.

How do you know? Because I know...

..I have no cure even if they operate my uterus is in bad shape.

Did you come here to die? Yes.

If all of us who are messed up went to a truck to die...

..there wouldn't be trucks in Spain. If you can't have kids...

..better for you, fewer problems. Are you sterile too?

Do I look sterile? A little.

Women spend their lives...

..wanting to be loved and when you fall in love with one...

..they pack up and leave, do you understand them?

I don't, well, a little with my grandma. You could marry her.

Why the hell would I marry your grandma I have nothing else to do.

Please, ask if they've seen my boy.

No? Yes, I'm a little nervous he left with a fever.

I know it's childish but he's going to come back worse.

What are you going to do now? Sleep, and tomorrow I'll leave.

And your parents? I'm leaving so they don't suffer...

..my sister is going to be operated on for cancer in America.

Wow, how are things at home. Isn't there anyone healthy in your family?

Well, I'll leave you.

I know yours has no cure but if you get through it...

..I'll keep all the Jabato comics for you, okay?

What for? The dead don't read comics.

What do you know? You've never died.

Thank you.

Nothing. Josete's mother doesn't know anything. What do we do?

We have to call dad so he doesn't come...

..he must be at the bar, call him and have him wait a bit longer.

He's going to find it strange. Let him think what he wants.

What does this one have that the others don't that Massiel doesn't have.

But how are we going to win. Why not?

Because those things are predetermined. Maybe not.

I've been told that until Franco dies we won't win.

But what does that have to do with it?

What does he say about Franco now? That anyone knows those things.

Well, if we have to wait for the leader to die to win...

..we're never going to win. I want to see the festival. Charge me.

Thank you. -Another round.

No, look what time it is and I have plans at home. Goodbye.

Who is it? Yes, he's here. Antonio!

Who is it? Your daughter.

Is something wrong? Mom says it's not necessary...

..for you to come soon because dinner isn't ready...

..so stay for at least an hour.

Didn't your mother say we should go early to see the festival?

Now she's telling you something else. Is something wrong with you?

What's going to happen to me. Put your mother on.

She can't come to the phone. What do you mean she can't? Put her on.

She can't, she's in the bathroom.

Are you sure nothing's wrong? Absolutely sure. Well, I'll let you go.

Wait. What should I do, should I stay at the bar?

Stay for a long while, after all, there's nothing to do here.

Damn the hospitalera!

Did they break the TV? Did they? No, man.

Oh, oh, not by the ear.

She's going to rip it off. Where is she?

I don't know. -You're going to lose your ear.

Who gave you this? -I found it on the street.

When did Carlitos give it to you? I can't say.

He says his son is sterile, has cancer, and is going to die.

Yes, sterile, has cancer, and is going to die, that's why he gave me the album.

What's going on here? Dad, come.

Panic attack, what's that? I don't know, but he gets them a lot...

..that's why I warned you not to come.

Panic, that's fear! No, dad, panic...

..it sounds very strange but it's hereditary, something like a persecution mania.

He thinks you don't love him. Me? I love him a lot.

Well, it doesn't show because he gets them a lot. Why don't they take him to the doctor?

They've told him it's a panic attack due to paternal absence.

Because that child doesn't have a father does he have to come here?

What do you want me to do? Understand it. I don't understand anything, daughter.

The important thing is that he doesn't see you because if he sees you, he gets worse.

You stay here, I'll be right back.

Carlos's sister has uterine cancer.

What are you saying? Does she have cancer? No way!

I don't know what I'm going to do with this kid. It's just that Carlitos imagines things.

You have to tell us where Carlos is Look, I'll rip your ear off!

Antonio!

Antonio!

Look out, Antonio. What are those shouts?

Tell Antonio I have to tell him something.

He hasn't come yet. It's the same, he's in the truck.

I just talked to him. With Antonio?

The kid, who is in the truck. What is he talking about?

Do you want to get in? No, sorry, you're not my type.

Remember. The kid is in the truck.

The kid in the truck, I'm not his type. He's getting worse every day!

When was the last time you saw Carlos?

I swear on my mother that she may die if I know. Oh, oh!

The crazy Cervantes says he saw a kid in a truck.

Oh, he left in a truck! Of course, the truck of the ruins.

So the kid leaves in a truck and I'm the last to know.

I'm a nobody! Well, good night.

Goodbye. And thanks, huh?

You're welcome.

And your father? In the bedroom, I said that Josete

..had a panic attack. What's that?

I blurted out the first thing that came to my mind.

Close the door.

Antonio. Hello, darling. Inés already told me about Josete.

What a mess. And how does that kid have a panic attack?

Poor thing. With me.

Yes. Wow! Has he left already?

Yes. Come on, let's go.

Antonio, where are you going? To watch TV...

..that must be about to start.

No, there's still a long way to go. Come, sit down...

..you're always in a hurry.

Is something wrong? No. You look handsome today.

Me?

That mustache looks good on you, you're very sexy.

Merche!

Antonio, don't be rough, man! So fast, huh?

You can go home now, we know you're innocent.

Oh, Antonio, we just can't. What?

We won't have time, but well, it doesn't matter.

Yes or no? Well, let's try.

Wait, I'll be right back. Yes.

And what did dad say? He doesn't know anything. Shall we talk, you and I?

Okay. Nothing's wrong with you.

You're not going to die. You say that, you don't have cancer

..nor are you sterile, or anything. No one is going to die.

Inés and I, well, Inés might be saved if they operate on her in America.

Did you take the money I left? We put it in the piggy bank.

Did you put it back again? Nothing's wrong with Inés...

..she was taking some pills not to have kids.

If she's not married.

That's why. Since she's not married if she got pregnant...

..it would be a mess, that's why she hid the pills...

..so they wouldn't find them, you understand?

(That night my brother introduced me to the unfathomable mysteries of women

..I remember everything Tony told me about sex...

..it seemed complicated and very dangerous to me).

(Now, 33 years later, it seems the same to me).

Do you understand? So Inés and Jesús...

She says no but I think yes.

If dad catches them... You'll like girls too.

No, I already like them. Am I not sick anymore?

You've just had a bad flu. Let's go home!

Has Eurovision started yet? If we hurry, we'll catch it.

How's the TV reception? Amazing. Come on!

Antonio. What?

It's about to start and my mom is alone making the tortilla.

Shall we leave it for later? Yes.

Don't kiss me now because if you kiss me then no...

Later, okay? Yes.

Give me a moment to calm down. I'll wait outside.

But don't take long. No.

Merche, nothing's wrong, right? No.

But the handsome part was serious.

Massiel's song.

(I couldn't believe my luck, not only was I not going to die...

..there was also serrano ham and my dad didn't notice anything).

We'll win, I'm sure we'll win. You'll see we won't...

..until Franco dies we won't win anything.

How is she going to win with those teeth and legs in the air.

I love it, grandma. -You get excited with a miniskirt.

Foreigners will think Spanish women are shameless.

Very good!

Applause.

There's the voting.

Austria, 2 points.

Translate, dad. They gave England 2 votes

28 to 23.

(Spain, 6 points). Spain, Spain!

At this moment Spain is in 1st position.

Are we first?

Decisive the Yugoslav jury's vote.

Spain in 1st position, 29 points, 28 England, 20 France.

Do you understand her? You can't hear anything.

Ireland, there are no more votes!

We have won! Ladies and gentlemen...

..Spain has just won the grand Eurovision song contest.

Long live Spain!

That's Ibarrier. Who is he?

The very good orchestra conductor.

Look at her! Beautiful!

I sing to the morning that sees my youth...

..and to the sun that day by day brings us new concern.

Everything in life is like a song.

(Now that we are tall, handsome and European, all this...

..it seems ridiculous to us but back then we never won anything).

(My father never found out about my escape or Inés's pills

..we all kept the secret. My grandmother didn't find out either...

..but she must have suspected something because she looked at my sister strangely).

(My mother went through a phase where she cried about everything...

..but it passed and I kept growing without realizing...

..that one world was ending and another was beginning).

I sing to the land...

..that has seen me grow...

..and I sing the day when I felt love...

..walking through life...

..I learned this song.

La, la, la, la.

La, la, la, la.

La, la, la, la.

La, la, la, la.

La, la, la, la.

"The name of Spain, once again, as always...

..has jumped to the forefront of the news."

"Spain has many things to say."

"I think Spain and we are like this and will always be like this."
