1
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:15,080
I'm sorry, I don't understand that.

2
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:17,320
Idiot!

3
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:19,600
I know, I know...

4
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,400
We live in a time
where we prefer to stay at home,

5
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:38,920
and TV series
are good company at this time.

6
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:41,720
Which one of us?
has never fallen in love with a series?

7
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:43,760
RESERVED
PRODUCER SNIP

8
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,880
A joyful invasion.

9
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,000
Lots of Italians
don't watch TV anymore.

10
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,560
I knew they would start on time!

11
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,440
You go directly to the streaming services.

12
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,400
Now I want you
introduce the lady next to me.

13
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,840
She is the new European manager
of an important ministry, Allison Daltman.

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,080
THE GOLDEN AGE OF TELEVISION SERIES

15
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,480
Thank you. Very friendly.

16
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,240
We know you tell stories
in a new way.

17
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:17,400
What is your secret?

18
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,680
I'm a big fan
Italian series.

19
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,400
I've only seen a few
but what I saw is: "Wow!"

20
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,080
The difference is that we
start with a cutting-edge concept.

21
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:36,600
"How can I be Brazilian,
Koreans, French,

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,320
Italians with the same story
address?"

23
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,760
It became clear to us with a top concept
the story works

24
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,000
for everyone from Dubai to Baltimore.

25
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,840
-Very well said!
-Thank you.

26
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,160
Sit down. I beg you.

27
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,280
But when I came to Italy,
it was love at first sight.

28
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,800
I met someone and said, "Brilliant!"

29
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,760
Unbelievable. This is my moment, chick.

30
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,920
She doesn't talk about you.

31
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,920
Alessandro, come here!

32
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,240
Thank you.

33
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,240
I make fun of Ale all the time. I say:

34
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,200
"You're old now, Grandpa."
But it's clear to me, he's a genius!

35
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,720
Thank you,
but I don't feel like a genius.

36
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,280
But when I think about it,
where I started...

37
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:29,840
Where can I find the director?

38
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,440
Fuck off!

39
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:35,320
Incredible.

40
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,200
I see
that René Ferretti is sitting in the audience.

41
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,440
René is a veteran among
the Italian storytellers.

42
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,000
Allison, he's the director,
that I told you about. Renato.

43
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,200
René, you can Allison
ask a question. She is here.

44
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:57,280
There's something I'd like to know.

45
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,720
I'm a normal subscriber.

46
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,000
They say you can use your account
share with a friend,

47
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,840
but my wife says it doesn't work.

48
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,400
-But what...
-I don't understand the question.

49
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,080
-Unimportant.
-Can I ask Alessandro something?

50
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,800
We understand
you're a big deal now.

51
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,960
But recently there are delays
when paying within the network.

52
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,440
There are producers
who are seriously considering suicide.

53
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,880
I met some of them
and they really wanted… Yes?

54
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,280
On the other hand, it is said
you would be very punctual.

55
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,600
Every week… Everything and immediately…

56
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,560
Can you confirm that?

57
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,240
Corinna, with the weekly ones
I have nothing to do with withdrawals.

58
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,560
We talked about the lace concept.

59
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:44,720
What's that supposed to mean?

60
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,280
Excuse me.
Let's stay on topic.

61
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,480
"Blood in Brianza" is a story
about bourgeois vampires,

62
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,200
who can barely make ends meet.

63
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,440
Our tax system
bothers them.

64
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,240
But this system
only exists in Italy.

65
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,880
In the rest of the world you need…

66
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,760
No, all vampires in Europe
have such problems.

67
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,560
These are real problems...

68
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:07,800
Alessandro just says,

69
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,880
your story is predictable
and boring. Go eat something.

70
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,000
Take off your desert boots
and go take a shower. Go.

71
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,360
Sorry, we hear from each other.
Call me at the office...

72
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:19,440
Call him.

73
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,720
Where is Allison?

74
00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:22,720
Departed.
Probably already in Istanbul.

75
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:25,920
We have huge machinery
set in motion!

76
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,280
Which machinery?

77
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,360
-Filming starts on Monday!
-On Monday!

78
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:30,640
What?

79
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:36,800
I'll explain it to you for the last time.

80
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,640
The scripts must be approved
and be blocked.

81
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,440
If not, the streaming service will
not do the project.

82
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,920
I've been contacted about a suspension
not warned.

83
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,640
-Is that clear?
-He wasn't warned.

84
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,160
Excuse me for a moment.

85
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,120
What is this barrier?

86
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:55,920
What's up?

87
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:58,640
Itala is dead.

88
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,360
"If René reads this,
I'm no longer with you.

89
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,040
"I imagine it like this:
Interior, church, in the morning.

90
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,000
"In the background is Nuschler
and cries like a baby.

91
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,680
"Length of the scene: two minutes 36,
divided into four cuts.

92
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,120
"Two are enough, René.

93
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:27,480
"To cut a long story short: we have things
half-hearted, but made with love.

94
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:34,600
"And love, like Dr. Corelli in
Season two, episode nine, 12th minute says,

95
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:40,960
"Love conquers all. Stanis, you have
Really exaggerated that sentence, boy."

96
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,680
That's right.
I really overdid it.

97
00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:46,320
The only line
I've ever overdone it.

98
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:51,720
Duccio and Lorenzo are filming
in New Delhi and couldn't come.

99
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,360
But Duccio sent this message.

100
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,360
"When I heard Itala was dead,
I locked myself in my trailer.

101
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,640
"I thought a lot. Maybe too much.
So much so that I had to go to the hospital."

102
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,520
It hit him hard.

103
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,600
I uncorked it, okay?

104
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,320
I read the draft of "The 70s",
that you sent me.

105
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,680
It's a bit old-fashioned, I know.

106
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,760
No, it's very good. But, Renato...

107
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,120
But...

108
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:28,320
But I'm not the kind of director
that you are looking for.

109
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,920
-Yes.
-They want young guys.

110
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,760
Squid, I just spoke to Allison.

111
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,680
A decision will be made on Monday.
You have to be there too.

112
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,240
I didn't know anything about that.

113
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,480
Yes, because she told me so.

114
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,440
And I heard the algorithm says,
the project is good.

115
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,240
The algorithm?

116
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,600
We can
talk to this Mr. Algorithm?

117
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,400
-Honey...
-I'll do it.

118
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,440
-No, Corinna.
-No?

119
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,320
The algorithm is a system
with which we estimate projects.

120
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:57,600
Understood? Not...

121
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,280
You know everything, don't you?

122
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,840
-You're so eloquent.
-No… Please.

123
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,680
-Don't you dare...
-To mom!

124
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:05,360
On Italy!

125
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,680
-On Italy!
-On Italy!

126
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,280
Can I say something?

127
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,200
If Itala died of something,
then sadness,

128
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,000
because in our world
everything has changed.

129
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,600
Assholes become big shots.

130
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:29,120
So I ask myself, “What happened?
from the earlier poetry on the sets?"

131
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,800
Go! Go!

132
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,600
That's correct.

133
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,880
-What happened to it?
-Whatever. In Italy. In Italy.

134
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,280
What is this behavioral training supposed to do?
what Stanis is forcing us to do?

135
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,560
A course about the new rules,
that exist on set.

136
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,960
But Stanis won't work with us.
I assure you.

137
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,520
-We were a great team!
-But we all have to go to the course tomorrow.

138
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,840
"Eyes of the Heart"
was the best series in Europe.

139
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:55,960
Exactly!

140
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,920
No no no!
Our car is over there!

141
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,560
Nuschler, you'll be in top form on Monday!

142
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:01,680
Oh, well.

143
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,160
-Go.
-Oh, God...

144
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:07,920
INCLUSION

145
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaking of inclusion:

146
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:16,920
A crew member defines themselves as
homosexual, transgender or asexual,

147
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,520
there is the fundamental problem
of gender.

148
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,160
He went, she went.

149
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:29,360
No, we prefer the more correct one
and genderless form "X went".

150
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,920
Example: "Did X go to the meeting?"

151
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,560
"I thought X was very good at the briefing."

152
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:43,600
Caution. Even "Hi, sweetie"
can be considered harassment.

153
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,120
Sorry, Professor X

154
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:51,720
So according to you one should say:
“Fuck X yourself!”

155
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,760

THE OPERATOR

167
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,640
We'll start again today, Boris.

168
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,280
My advice?

169
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,720
I want,
that you are determined and focused.

170
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,000
Boris, look what I've arranged.
Just look.

171
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,840
-Are you talking…
-Go, go, go.

172
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,200
Are you talking to Boris?

173
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:11,720
No! No…

174
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,800
My father told me
that you often talk to the fish.

175
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,120
Do you have a good relationship?

176
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,600
Is that sarcasm?

177
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,680
No, not at all. I talk to plants.

178
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,680
Perfect! Manuela, this is Boris.
Boris, Manuela.

179
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:27,760
Very pleased.

180
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,880
She is our new script supervisor.

181
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,080
-Nice.
-Boris is 17 years old.

182
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,040
Everyone says he's old
but is in top shape.

183
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,960
Yes, it's... It's red.

184
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,760
Because I feed him shrimp.

185
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,360
Please postpone this.

186
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,880
No, you have to do that!
No! Shoo, shoo, shoo!

187
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,080
No, not, we work here.

188
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,400
-We should put up a wall here.
-But we need this.

189
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,800
What are you saying?

190
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,360
Fuck off.

191
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,200
The rules of conduct.

192
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,360
Do they also apply on set?

193
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,720
-Great, Diego!
-Hey, hi.

194
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,120
-Have you spoken to Sergio?
-Yes.

195
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,400
What happened?

196
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,280
You know that Sergio has a writing group
in cell block two?

197
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,480
Yes, he said.

198
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,880
One of them was a merchant,
who according to Sergio is talented.

199
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,680
But crazy Peppe,
another author, freaked out.

200
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,000
He gutted the merchant?

201
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,200
The plot twist came too late for him,
so he gutted the merchant.

202
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,640
Understandable.

203
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:37,280
They put all the authors in solitary confinement.

204
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,920
And me? "Here, Sergio, put it in your pocket otherwise
where!" My parole was rejected.

205
00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:44,400
Visiting hours are over.

206
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,480
So he has to stay in prison.

207
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,680
Can I say what I think?

208
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,720
The Italian prison system
urgently needs to be reformed.

209
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,960
Yes, but we have to
Find a manufacturing manager, Diego.

210
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:56,840
I'll do it.

211
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,360
No… Have you ever done this?

212
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,400
There are many things
what you don't know about me.

213
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:03,840
Have you ever done this before?

214
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,880
No, but I know them.
I watched closely as she...

215
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,520
Corinna.

216
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,000
Sit down.

217
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,040
-Would you like a coffee?
-No.

218
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:18,920
Water?

219
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,360
-Your Highness!
-What a prince!

220
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,600
You look great!
Look at that asshole!

221
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:31,120
Listen, sire.

222
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,040
The phone call with Allison is just
a conversation, nothing serious, okay?

223
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,920
What are you talking about?
It's an official phone call.

224
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:40,440
-Official phone call.
-Officially.

225
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,720
-Yes.
-So is it serious?

226
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,000
-Of course it is.
-From one to ten, how serious?

227
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,520
Tell me, how did this project come about?

228
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,440
Stanis called us three years ago

229
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:53,200
and offered us 200,000 euros
for six 50-minute episodes.

230
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:54,480
Would you refuse that?

231
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,040
Plus another 200,000 if it gets the green light
gets. But when do we start?

232
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,040
The best projects are the ones
which you pull off like a raid.

233
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,160
-Send!
-Bank transfer?

234
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,880
-Receive!
-Quick, run!

235
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,800
-For us, that was it.
-It's a mystery.

236
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,280
But when did Stanis meet this Allison?

237
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,880
At a meal,
before she became the European manager.

238
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,680
They spent a weekend
in Stanis' country house.

239
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,000
The new Israeli scholars,
especially Benny Morris,

240
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,400
claim he died at 50.

241
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,960
The house is breathtaking.

242
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:32,680
It's mine.

243
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,000
Allison needs the so-called authenticity
saw in it.

244
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,320
-Authenticity?
-Authenticity.

245
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,760
What the hell is that supposed to be?
I'll kill you, Alessandro.

246
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,760
Some series can
overthrow established historical truths.

247
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,120
-Really?
-OK.

248
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,640
-Really?
-Real?

249
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,040
With a different representation
of the events.

250
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,960
-That's correct.
-That's unbelievable.

251
00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:58,640
-This is authenticity.
-Authenticity!

252
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,280
This is called “uchrony.”

253
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,960
-Uchronia.
-Good.

254
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,040
They didn't discover America alone.

255
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,320
Good. I go.

256
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,720
Go. This is Lopez.

257
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:12,880
Don't tell him where we are.

258
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,640
The phone number you dialed
is not reachable. Please...

259
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,760
Why “Asshole,” Diego?

260
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,920
Stanis of Nazareth?

261
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,320
SNI Productions,
I damn the day I came along.

262
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:52,760
We can't pay anything anymore

263
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,360
because <i>Genghis Khan</i> made a loss
and we sank.

264
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,600
And because Lopez conceded,
we need him.

265
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,840
I don't care where it comes from.

266
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,960
<i>Genghis Khan?</i>

267
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,400
Yes, Stanis was the director.
He is a good director.

268
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,320
-Maybe a little too ambitious.
-I lost 300,000 in the process.

269
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,080
You know how that goes, right?

270
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,160
You do a series to get rid of the debt
to cancel the previous one.

271
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,000
But in this case
it's a little more complicated,

272
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:25,360
because the platform finances the project,
They even check your phone bill.

273
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,360
Arianna, if we have any receipt
If we have to calculate, we go crazy.

274
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:34,680
Is there no petty cash fund?

275
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:35,880
What did I tell you?

276
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,600
I only talk when someone speaks to me,
and do what I'm told.

277
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,440
I'm not an intern,
but a rocket, a greased bolt of lightning.

278
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,200
And if I don't like it, I leave.

279
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,480
The good old bill
is no longer allowed.

280
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:54,760
It's all so cold-hearted.

281
00:15:54,880 --> 00:16:00,520
You become your money
regain through the next project.

282
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,440
-On your ass!
-Exactly.

283
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:04,920
I have an idea.

284
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,480
I become a co-star and you give me
my 300,000 back, yeah?

285
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,680
Moment. You want Maria,
the Mother of God, play?

286
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,320
I don't give a shit.
I just want my money back.

287
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,480
Pssh. Tell Stanis
still an hour until the phone call.

288
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,400
If you work for the platform,
you can't do that anymore.

289
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:24,960
-What to do?
-"Shh."

290
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,520
-No “shh”?
-No.

291
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,440
-I'm sorry.
-It doesn't matter.

292
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,360
No! Look who's here!

293
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,080
You were the fucking slave
from "Eyes of the Heart"! Come here!

294
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,760
No. Mario! Come on, leave him alone.

295
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,080
-Do you know who that is?
-A chandelier.

296
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,240
-No.
-What?

297
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,560
He is the new executive producer
the platform.

298
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,040
Don't worry, Mario. That's fine.

299
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,960
Excuse me. I'm embarrassed.

300
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,760
Let me know next time
before I embarrass myself.

301
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:57,360
Breaking news!

302
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,920
Stanis, the producer,
spoke to Stanis, the actor.

303
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:07,000
A bitter confrontation.
We agreed on 600,000 euros.

304
00:17:07,120 --> 00:17:09,040
Mind you, we started
at a million.

305
00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:12,920
Stanis, the actor, didn't want to
give in. Imagine that.

306
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,480
So thanks to Stanis, the producer.

307
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,120
No, thanks Stanis,
the actor, Lopez.

308
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,040
Unfortunately there is a problem.

309
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,800
Stanis, the actor,
is too similar to Jesus.

310
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,200
There is no space
between the actor and the role,

311
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,600
room for interpretation,

312
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,720
can Stanis, the actor,
not breathing.

313
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:34,680
Do you see his condition?

314
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,920
We expand the space.
We won't let you suffocate.

315
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:41,520
Don't play it down, Lopez.

316
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,920
Anyway, we were just discussing
something else.

317
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,000
-We wanted Corinna…
-Give a role.

318
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,720
Naturally. She is my wife. Darling.

319
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:51,960
Hare.

320
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,920
I read the Gospels over and over again

321
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,520
and I think you would be perfect
for the role of the bleeding woman.

322
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,720
-The bleeding woman?
-Yes, the bloody woman.

323
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,640
She is a controversial figure
in the Gospels.

324
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:09,360
A beautiful, strong, attractive one
Woman who just has a small problem.

325
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,120
Let's put it this way: she loses
a lot of blood coming from her pelvic floor.

326
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:15,720
-Poor thing!
-But Jesus heals her.

327
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:20,360
She is beautiful. That's you
with your big exotic eyes.

328
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:21,800
You.

329
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,440
The bleeding woman!

330
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,200
Count me in.

331
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,360
I play the bleeding woman
and you give me 300,000 euros.

332
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,400
Let's see if they fall for it.

333
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,400
They are Americans, but not stupid!

334
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,480
The phone call with Allison
starts in five minutes.

335
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,520
THE LIFE OF JESUS

336
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,280
Ale, can you give us tips,
how to convince the algorithm?

337
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,120
There are no tips there.

338
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,320
But when I think about it,
the word consists of <i>algo</i> and <i>rithm.</i>

339
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,640
<i>Algo</i> stands for pain, <i>rithm</i> for flow,
so river of pain.

340
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,280
It's so Italian,
to quote the origin of a word.

341
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,760
<i>-Hi, guys! Nice to see you!</i>
-Hi.

342
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:09,040
Hi, Alli!

343
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:11,040
Here is also René, our director.

344
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,600
<i>Okay, okay, let's get straight to it.</i>
<i>The project is fantastic.</i>

345
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,240
<i>I like the main character,</i>
<i>not just because he's a superhero,</i>

346
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,040
<i>but because he is human.</i>

347
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,000
<i>It's a top concept. Well done!</i>

348
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,160
<i>But there is a problem</i>
<i>with the algorithm. It's missing...</i>

349
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,840
I know
the flow of pain is missing.

350
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,720
Think about it.
Algorithm in Greek means…

351
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,640
-Stop it.
-…"River of Pain"…

352
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,120
<i>No, Stanis.</i>

353
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,920
<i>Algorithm comes from the ancient,</i>
<i>Arab mathematician al-Chwarizmi.</i>

354
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,680
<i>Stanis, why are you dressed like Jesus?</i>
<i>I don't understand that.</i>

355
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,200
<i>Are you on set yet?</i>

356
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,960
We rehearse. We're making progress.

357
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,480
We shoot this and that.
<i>Fegatelli,</i> “Leberchen”.

358
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,880
You said there's still something missing.

359
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,600
<i>Yes, there is a problem.</i>

360
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:00,480
What problem?

361
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,400
<i>The spirit of the main character is missing.</i>

362
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:04,560
What kind of ghost?

363
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,360
-The hidden trauma of the character.
<i>-But I trust you. Like Stanis said,</i>

364
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,320
<i>do you have seizures all the time.</i>

365
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,400
<i>You can do it! Bye!</i>

366
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:17,600
Seizures?

367
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,320
I said ideas. Really.

368
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,400
Squid, could you do that again?
Repeat definition of algorithm?

369
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,360
-No no no!
-Hey, hey!

370
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,640
"River of Pain"? Asshole!

371
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,400
Stanis! Stanis, don't hurt him!
We need him!

372
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,920
We have to find the spirit of the character.

373
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,920
Easier said than done,
Finding Jesus' childhood trauma...

374
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,280
-How do you find it?
-Fantastic! I love it.

375
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,360
Look at this.

376
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,880
-Listen. Just one question...
-Yes?

377
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,880
The Pharisees, Sadducees, Wayfarers,
the lepers, the beggars…

378
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,160
All Calabrian.
Is this a conscious decision?

379
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,160
My cousin Michele asked me to
a few children from Calabria

380
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,720
to help those who are currently having a hard time,
to make ends meet.

381
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,400
Your cousin Michele?

382
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,200
He and I founded the Q.Q.Q.
Quality, quality, quality.

383
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,320
If it hadn't been for him,
none of this would be possible.

384
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,160
In return he asked for two things.

385
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,880
Help these poor children
and make a pile of coal.

386
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,440
The bastard touched me!

387
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,360
Do you hear? Sounds Aramaic.

388
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:34,840
Come on...

389
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:40,000
I have a friend,
a Bible student to help me.

390
00:21:40,120 --> 00:21:42,400
Can we bring him in as a consultant?

391
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,480
Let's hire him.

392
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,800
You don't even know
how many advisors I have.

393
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,480
-Do you need a sociologist?
-No.

394
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,760
-A historian? A wine expert?
-No, a Bible student is enough.

395
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,560
Arianna, is this ready?

396
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:01,000
We are just building the beginning
of the child murder in Bethlehem.

397
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,640
I want it to be good.

398
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,520
Yes, then we'll shoot
in the meantime this.

399
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:08,200
What is that?

400
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,280
We don't shoot!

401
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,120
In this light we can't turn,
gentlemen!

402
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,720
Why are you looking up at the sky?
We shoot on a sound stage.

403
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,160
What are you saying?

404
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,080
If I say it won't be filmed,
then there is no rotation.

405
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:53,440
Who the hell are you?

406
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:54,880
Lopez.

407
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,840
Do you know what they call me in India?

408
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,200
"Duccionnot turn", one word.

409
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,560
Duccio looks to the sky,
They shit their pants in India.

410
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,400
-What's that supposed to mean? What's up?
-Duccio doesn't want to shoot.

411
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:08,640
What does this mean?

412
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:15,760
Everything is a reflection of our mind
everything can be changed.

413
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,960
We can rotate.
Come on, René, we can shoot.

414
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,680
Then let's go, time is running.

415
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,800
The helicopter.

416
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,480
You can consider yourself lucky
that you can rotate.

417
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:29,560
The most important thing for the scene
of the child murder in Bethlehem

418
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,960
you have from paintings
from the Renaissance, right?

419
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,240
-Which paintings?
-Yes.

420
00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:39,760
They're crazy about the platform
after the Italian Renaissance.

421
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,720
These are the paintings.

422
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,320
René, we'll end up like <i>Genghis Khan.</i>

423
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,280
The scene of the child murder in Bethlehem

424
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:51,880
with all the dead children...

425
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,400
Children are allowed on set
work a maximum of three hours per day.

426
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,520
That doesn't work! The authors
are already trying to simplify it.

427
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:00,600
-Really?
-Let's go.

428
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,720
Lopez wants the child murder in Bethlehem
for 80 euros.

429
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,600
We do.

430
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:10,840
We do?

431
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:16,800
Devils.

432
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,720
Lopez says you guys are writing
the child murder in Bethlehem,

433
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,080
by simplifying the scene?

434
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:28,680
We will “tell” them.

435
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:30,520
What does this mean?

436
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,600
The narrative technique. We tell them.

437
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,120
So we already have it
the Vanzina brothers made.

438
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,760
They had no money to make a scene
to shoot, they told her.

439
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,800
One friend tells another.
"You won't believe that!

440
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,840
"A car crashed into a bar at full speed!

441
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,840
"All the tables were flying around!
All hell broke loose!"

442
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,880
You save on the extras,
the tables and the stunt people.

443
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,360
-Because it was told.
-Cost? Eighty euros.

444
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,400
-Ninety.
-We can't start like that!

445
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,640
In the meantime, let's do the scene
finished with St. Joseph.

446
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,000
We also use
at St. Josef the narrative technique

447
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:06,720
and build the trauma into it.

448
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,840
Awesome.

449
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:15,360
We build the trauma into the
same scene. A huge trauma!

450
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,360
The Bible Student suggested this.
He's a really cool guy. Very cool.

451
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,320
A cool Bible student.
That's an oxymoron.

452
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,240
I don't trust you.

453
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:26,800
-I'll call him.
-Go ahead.

454
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,800
Put it on speaker.

455
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:30,880
BIBLE STUDENT VINCENZO

456
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:33,480
<i>Hello?</i>

457
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,320
-Vincenzo?
-Hi, great Vincenzo!

458
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:36,360
-Hey!
-Hi!

459
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,800
<i>-Hello.</i>
-The authors are here.

460
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,200
They say they spoke to you.

461
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:44,160
<i>Yes, we had a great idea. René,</i>
<i>what you sent me works.</i>

462
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:46,680
<i>Think about it.</i>
<i>This is Saramago's thesis.</i>

463
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,480
<i>Josef's feelings of guilt then become</i>
<i>about Jesus' guilt.</i>

464
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,560
<i>-Okay, I have to go. Bye.</i>
-No…

465
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,080
Saramago's thesis.

466
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,720
If he is a <i>Mago,</i> a magician,
then for good reason!

467
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,160
Yes, I know, Boris. It's true.

468
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:25,360
It's an info dump, but from
Saramango, a Nobel Prize winner.

469
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,440
Forgiveness. We would have that.

470
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,840
-Duccio, please make room. Thanks.
-Yes, but...

471
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,040
I don't want to be a producer,
who sits in front of the monitor.

472
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,040
I have again
thought about the baby Jesus.

473
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,360
Not only does he not look like me,
he also has no charisma.

474
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,680
It's a doll.

475
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,640
True. Why are we wasting time?
Let's get started. Camera!

476
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:48,720
Go!

477
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:49,920
-Camera is running!
-Recording!

478
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,640
104. Shot one, clapboard, the first.

479
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,320
Everyone ready?

480
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,680
-Everyone ready.
-Action!

481
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,400
"Terrible things happen.

482
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,200
"Maria, they killed all the children."

483
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,400
-Very nice. That was it. Well...
-"We should have warned the others."

484
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,200
-Cut!
-What's this, Stanis?

485
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:14,200
You!

486
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,120
-Come on...
-That was okay...

487
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:17,400
Is he crazy?

488
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:24,480
This is a spoiler.
You're ruining my ending.

489
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,280
But we didn't see it at all.

490
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,720
Are you looking at me for the rules of conduct?
so crooked from the side?

491
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,120
Let's shoot. Go.

492
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,800
"Terrible things happen.

493
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,320
"Maria, they killed all the children.

494
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,040
"We should have warned the others.

495
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,560
"We could have saved so many children.

496
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,280
"There is immense suffering.

497
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,200
"One day it will be your son
also feel."

498
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,880
Good. Cut. Excellent.

499
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,200
<i>-Thanks, Bao.</i>
-Hi!

500
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,200
<i>-Crap! How are you doing? Are you alone?</i>
-Good. Yes Yes Yes.

501
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,840
But where are you? Looks stunning!
Beautiful!

502
00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:31,080
<i>The best place! We're making a film about</i>
<i>an African American Marine</i>

503
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:36,600
<i>and a gay soldier</i>
<i>North Vietnam. A tender love story.</i>

504
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,240
<i>-Really cute!</i>
-Great!

505
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,960
<i>I watched the footage.</i>
<i>I'll be honest with you.</i>

506
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:49,000
<i>In my opinion this is crazy</i>
<i>Project. When I saw the resumes...</i>

507
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:54,240
<i>You're a bit old. And I thought</i>
<i>think about what you said.</i>

508
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,720
<i>"They are old horses."</i>

509
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,240
“Old horses?” No, no,
I never said that.

510
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,920
<i>Yes, you did and we laughed!</i>
<i>Don't you know anymore?</i>

511
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:07,440
<i>But then I saw the scene with St. Joseph.</i>
<i>Shock!</i>

512
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,600
<i>Why St. Joseph? Why did St. Joseph</i>
<i>didn't warn the others?</i>

513
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:12,680
No idea.

514
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,440
<i>I never thought about the guilt</i>
<i>according to what St. Joseph must have had,</i>

515
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,040
<i>and of course Jesus' guilt.</i>

516
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,120
<i>The algorithm says,</i>
<i>a superhero needs a ghost,</i>

517
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,880
<i>and you found Jesus' spirit!</i>

518
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,680
<i>Please thank me for me</i>
<i>at the authors. Brilliant!</i>

519
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,760
<i>We are close to completion.</i>

520
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,400
<i>This project could be due to</i>
<i>become groundbreaking in its authenticity.</i>

521
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,000
<i>But you know what's missing.</i>
<i>I still need that!</i>

522
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,000
What is still missing for graduation?

523
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:47,320
It needs… a teen story.
And minorities.

524
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,880
What do I know about minorities?

525
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,760
No, maybe you have
didn't realize what happened.

526
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:58,040
Allison said,
we are almost finished.

527
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,840
Think about it,
how many people in Italy

528
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,160
right now a series
write for the platform.

529
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,480
Allison says,
the project could be groundbreaking.

530
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,520
We can this time
do something high quality?

531
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:16,800
We could.

532
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,560
A revolution…

533
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,360
Dear colleagues,
what is it like in hell?

534
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,440
I can tell you
In the end it's not so bad.

535
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,400
It's full of fourth seasons
of TV series.

536
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,080
I'm going home.

537
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,800
Which home?

538
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:51,240
The next one.

539
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:55,760
Understood.

540
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,600
