Why didn't you tell me about the meeting?

I didn't know what it was about.

Yeah, well, but you suspected something, otherwise you would've told me.

Máx, what do you want? I didn't know what it was about.

What do I want?

What do you think I want?

To know where I stand, what to expect.

I'm sorry.

Who were there?

Just the Prime Minister?

Van der Stoel...

My mother was also there.

Your mother?

Why was your mother there?

Okay, what?

Alex, come on, spit it out.

They're saying that your father can't attend our wedding,

or at least, there will be no consent law.

What is a consent law?

It's all political stuff, it doesn't matter.

What does it mean?

Everybody involved in the matter wants to show their balls, it's...

Why is my father not allowed to be at my wedding?

- What does that report say? - I don't know.

I promise we'll do everything to fix this.

How can you be so sure if you don't know what's in it?

Fuck! Unbelievable!

How can you ask this of me?

Me? It's them, I was blindsided as well.

This is not what I want, I was furious.

- Bravo. - Hey, Máx, wait please.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

I wanted to wait for the right time I didn't want to make it a big thing.

Not a big thing?

So my father can't be at our wedding, and you call this not a big thing?

That's not what I'm...

Máx, I didn't want you to worry unnecessarily.

No Alex, you're so arrogant that you think that you can bend things to your will.

Máx, please.

Go to hell.

Máx, please, can you wait one second so we can talk?

Leave me alone.

It's all just politics.

To hell with politics.

You kept me in the dark on this.

Please, Máx.

Fuck.

- Hello? - Tris, it's me.

- So good to see you! - I can't believe it.

Wow Tris, look at your view.

You can sleep in bed with me, that's all I can offer.

- Like when we were little. - Yes.

Look at how young we were.

Your mother called twice to see if you've arrived okay.

- Typical. Can I use your phone? - Of course.

We're going to do so many fun things!

I read in a magazine in Buenos Aires...

That New York has restaurants with swimming pools on the terraces.

We could go to Broadway.

I would also like to see the Statue of Liberty. Right?

- The Empire State. - Yes.

Máx, but we don't have to do everything immediately.

Hello.

This is Máxima Zorreguieta, I wanted to confirm my interview for tomorrow.

Yes.

Okay, that's perfect.

Okay, thank you.

Okay Tris, let's go out for dinner, my treat.

Máx, New York is very expensive.

Tris, I'll soon have a job on Wall Street.

From now on, dinners are on me.

- So, you're from Buenos Aires. - Yes.

You know my father, right?

Do I?

Or maybe your father knows my father.

Because I think I met your father once, on a ski trip to Bariloche.

I'm sorry, time is money, I know.

Who cares about Bariloche when you're here in New York.

Tell me, why do you think you're the right fit for the job?

I'm really good with numbers.

I mean... no, I'm really good with numbers. Yeah.

And I like people and I'm looking for new challenges here in New York.

Interesting.

Interesting.

We've got your information from Tim at Merrill Lynch

and Robert at Citicorp.

Looks like you've been making rounds.

I thought people in finance were supposed to be discrete.

We're glad they aren't.

We're looking for someone in sales.

To complete our Latin America team.

That's me.

Tell me why.

I don't really like talking about my accomplishments, but...

I can tell you about the biggest mistake I've ever made.

When I was working at the Bank of Boston,

we made a huge misjudgment regarding the Mexican peso.

And our clients lost a lot of money...

And I felt horrible.

But in the long run it made me resilient.

More diligent, meticulous even.

I am in charge of Canada, Florida and Texas.

I'm Caoimhe's back-up for her most important clients in New York.

Like Soros and Merrill Lynch. Look.

Máxima Zorreguieta, Vice President of Relations of Latin America.

I'm toasting to you.

Thank you, dad.

I found an apartment near Central Park.

In three weeks I'll get the keys.

It's small but it doesn't matter, I'll never be there.

At 7 a.m. at the office, I'm the first there and last to leave.

You know...

Grandma Máxima would be proud of you, just like me.

I could never afford this neighborhood.

- You shouldn't have become an artist then. - I hate you.

I'm going to miss living with you.

I'm going to miss you too.

Do you know what I'm not going to miss? Your hair in the shower.

Do you know what I won't miss?

Your spiritual nonsense.

I know you think this is bullshit, but it really helps, trust me.

It also smells good, right?

Don't forget the bedroom.

The most important room.

Choose a painting for your apartment.

My apartment is too small, nothing would fit.

It's Tris. Tris!

Hey.

María Pame.

Glad to see you.

- Máxi didn't say you were visiting. - It's a surprise.

May I introduce you to my friends from Buenos Aires.

This is Máxima Zorreguieta and her mom, María Pame.

- Hello. - Nice to meet you.

- María Pame. - Nice to meet you.

This is Peter, he introduced me to the art scene here.

- Did I hear Tris just say Zorregueta ? - Zorreguieta.

Yes, Zorreguieta.

Are you by any chance related to Dolores Zorreguieta, the artist?

Yes.

- She is my sister. - No way.

I saw her exhibition the other day,

Wounds.

- Have you had a chance to see it yet? - No.

I won't say much then,

because I don't want to ruin the experience for you, but...

It was really impressive.

She did an amazing job of capturing the pain,

and the fear and the violence in her youth in her art.

- It's a pleasure to meet her mother. - No.

I'm not her mother.

She's my half sister, we share the same father.

Yes, her father and mine are close friends.

- Small world. - Small world.

I think we need a drink.

Yes, amazing.

- Thank you. - So nice to meet you, enjoy your evening.

Thank you, you too.

Mom, you can't react like that.

What should I say? She's not my daughter.

I know, but... never mind.

Of course I'm not going to Dolores' exhibition, darling.

After all, she makes art out of all her pain and all the violence

that she had in her youth.

Please, such nonsense.

Okay mom, that's enough.

I'm saying it because you exaggerate too.

Wasn't it you who told me you couldn't get pregnant back then?

Oh no, Máxima.

You're leaving a lot of tracks.

- Let me. Máxima, let me do it. - Mom, I can do it, just let me.

Máxima, don't you see how bad it looks?

Can you live with these marks? Let me do it properly.

Straight. Straight, girl.

At some point, you need to let go of things.

Do you understand?

When we're done, we'll have some wine.

We've earned that.

Yes.

This is going to be beautiful.

- What do you think, much better, right? - I love it.

More light is coming in, fantastic, very feng shui.

I hadn't thought about it that way.

- Yes. - To your new life, girl.

Cheers, mom.

- Let me know when you arrive. - Take care, darling.

- Give dad a hug for me. - Of course.

- Bye, my dear. - Bye.

Loli!

Máx.

I can't believe it.

You're all grown up.

- So beautiful too. - Thank you, you also look great.

New York suits you, seriously.

This man, Peter.

He was very impressed by your work.

He said that since you're in New York, most of your work is about Argentina.

It happened.

It was as if it came at me with more force from a distance.

The violence of those years, all the fear, the pain.

I can only work on things that are about to break down.

Things that bother me, make me feel uncomfortable.

Have you ever been able to talk about what happened with dad?

He doesn't want to listen nor take any kind of responsibility.

Unbelievable, since so much has come to light.

- How can someone... - No, sorry, wrong subject, my fault.

Excuse me for asking you.

You're a lot like him.

Why?

We're not arguing, we're talking about something.

Máx, you're 25 years old, you've graduated,

you're even an economist, what do you think?

Come on, you saw, you read, you heard things.

He worked so hard to give us every opportunity.

Máx! 30,000 people missing, babies stolen, drugged bodies dumped into the sea.

Shit, I promised myself this wouldn't happen.

Not with you.

- It was nice to see you. - Máx...

I love you so much, I'm sure Jorge was a great father to you.

- Excuse me. I need... - Please.

Máxi.

What's going on?

Why can't Dolores leave the past behind?

Máx...

Artists ask questions.

That's what we do, it's our task.

And it's...

It's courageous too.

What is courageous?

- To use our last name to get fame? - No.

It's brave to stand up to him.

I've been there.

Her exhibition.

Wounds.

I thought it was impressive.

It made me think.

It reminded me of our youth.

About how we were safe on an island at Northlands.

While the world outside was on fire, Máx.

I won't be joining for dinner, I'll see you later.

Máx.

So I thought it were my feet at first,

my shoes, but it turns out it's actually my core.

So I've been doing yoga like everyday, like every morning to get my hips loose...

Sorry, can you excuse me for a minute?

I'll be right back.

Excuse me.

Hi, Cynthia?

Hello.

Máxima.

Zorreguieta.

Northlands?

Máxima Zorreguieta? Can you excuse me for a minute.

Máxima Zorreguieta! What are you doing here?

- Would you like to join us? - No, I'm with a colleague.

- Oh, do you work here? - Yes.

Until recently I worked at HSBC, Vice President sales for Latin America.

I went to Deutsche Bank.

What about you?

Good.

I've been living here for years and do a lot of things.

A lot of photography and I'm in the fashion industry.

- I'm currently at DKNY, do you know them? - Yes, certainly.

- So good to see you again. - I agree.

I'll give you my phone number, give me a moment.

Relax, here.

That's my phone number.

I see, wow.

- Shall I call you? - That's fine, it was a pleasure.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry, an old friend.

Yes. You don't have to worry about that, we'll take care of that.

No way! Okay, don't worry about that. Okay, I will.

Let me call you later.

Okay, yes, I'll send it to you. Okay, thank you, bye.

Hi Cynthia.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Zorreguieta!

I'm so happy that you're here, seriously.

I didn't know if you'd accept the invitation.

I'm very happy that you're here. It'll be fun.

- Beautiful house. - You like it?

We're very happy.

Because we've been renovating all year...

That's why I'm throwing this cocktail party.

It's nothing, all very informal.

There are only cool people here.

Oh, and a Rockefeller, maybe even a Kennedy.

Meet Philippe and Ana.

Phil, Ana, this is Máxima.

- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

She is my best friend from Buenos Aires.

Phil and Ana spend about half of the year in New York and the other half in Seville.

Best of both worlds.

Well, you have the tango.

You have the flamenco.

Yes, but I have to say, there is nothing quite like the tango.

It has a unique blend of deep melancholy and sensuality, that's just unbeatable.

Yes, I mean...

Tango is the first smile on your face after crossing a sea of tears.

There you go, that's exactly what I mean.

Come with me. Sorry.

I'll take you to restaurant Le Bilboquet next week!

Dear, that's like my second home.

Snob.

This guy bursts into my office and starts yelling at me,

stuff like "when will it ever end?" or "will it ever be enough?"

I just look at him and I go like, it's not a question of enough, pal.

It's a zero sum game, you know somebody wins, somebody loses.

Money itself isn't lost or made,

it's transferred from one perception to another, it's like magic.

For example, this painting I bought ten years ago, for $60,000 dollars,

today I could sell it for $600,000.

The illusion just became real and the more real it becomes,

the more desperately they want it.

- To me, that is... - Capitalism at its finest.

Gordon Gekko, Wall Street, I've seen it at least 5 times.

It's a great movie, right?

It is. So the painting, I sold it...

No one is available to take your call. Please leave a message.

Máx, it's Tris. What's up? Why don't you call me back?

I don't know what I did wrong,

but this will be the last time I'll leave a message.

Please call me, I'm worried.

Dolores, stop all of that.

No, why can't I ask you any questions?

Questions?

You accuse me and talk about things that you know nothing about, Dolores.

I'm not making it up, it's written in the report.

Get out of my house!

No.

How I miss the time when you could smoke on flights.

I just open the cockpit window.

What are you thinking about?

My sister.

Her exhibition about the Videla regime.

I went to see it back then but...

It was too much.

I never argued with my father.

She did.

She confronted him.

Dared to ask questions.

I didn't.

Such a coward.

You are not a coward.

Have you ever just asked him,

whether he knew about it?

Why not?

What's the worst thing that could happen?

Hi Tris.

Ah... hi.

Hi.

Any plans for tonight?

Cynthia was not available?

You're right.

I'm sorry.

I already have plans.

Would this weekend be better?

Yes, maybe. I don't know. We'll talk later, okay?

Okay.

Tris...

- Where to, miss? - To the Hamptons.

This is Valeria Delger, not available at the moment. Please leave a...

Hi, it's Samantha. I'm not available at this moment, please leave your message

This is the mobile phone of Tiziano, leave a message after the beep.

Hello?

Hey, Máx. Tiziano here. You called me?

Yes.

I just...

I thought of you, wondering how you're doing.

Good, good.

Busy.

It's been a long time, Máx.

Yes, I know.

I know you called me often.

I'm sorry. I...

Forgive me, life goes by fast here.

Right, so tell me. Is it like you expected, Wall Street?

Did you catch a millionaire banker yet? Or do you miss Buenos Aires over there?

New York is great, really.

I'm doing very well at work, the parties are lovely.

But tell me about you.

How are you?

That man looks at me and says, "this is New York, get over it."

This is how things work here.

Arm yourself against the hard mentality if you want to get somewhere here.

Obviously everyone says

that money is the most important in New York, the economy...

To get somewhere and to become someone, but...

I think the best thing about New York are the people.

How they interact with each other, the way they connect.

The group, the humanity.

But?

- Good morning. - Good morning.

- Would you like a mate? - Okay.

Thanks for yesterday.

I had a good time.

I was thinking...

Why don't you go to Buenos Aires with me?

We could travel.

We could go to Italy.

Argentina, a vacation in Bariloche.

I missed you.

I have the impression that you miss Argentina too.

No.

I don't miss Argentina.

I want to stay here.

I loved that you visited.

I had a great time with you, really.

- Are you kidding me? - What?

Are you kidding me?

I came from Buenos Aires for you.

- I loved that you visited. - You called me.

It was you who called me!

So I've traveled 8,500 kilometers just to fuck?

You know what's wrong with you?

The thing with you is...

That nothing is ever good enough for you.

Not even love.

- Hello? - Tris, it's me.

Can I come in?

Hey.

Hey.

I don't know if you had plans, but I cooked pasta pesto. I brought a...

I'm sorry that I let you down.

I don't know what it was.

I guess I just stuck my head in the sand.

I'm sorry.

Zorreguieta has cooked.

I'll have to call the press.

Mark is his name?

Yes.

Does he take good care of you?

Does he know that he has gold in his hands?

- I hope so. - He better.

Yes.

I'm very happy for you.

What about you?

I don't know, Tris, sometimes I feel like I'll be alone forever.

Máx, no!

You know what? Let's find that out right now.

Are we seriously doing this?

Yes, we are seriously doing this.

You have to think of a question

or ask for advice from the cards.

I am going to shuffle them.

When you get a good feeling, like it's the right moment,

you have to say stop.

- When I get a good feeling? - Yes.

- Are you shuffling them? - Yes, focus.

- I have a good feeling now. - Are you sure?

Yes, yes.

- The Empress. - Is that good?

The empress as the first card.

Interesting.

The wheel of fortune.

The world.

The lovers.

Something is going to happen in your life, Máx.

Something that will change everything, something unexpected.

I believe that the cards are saying that you'll meet someone special.

You'll sign a contract with this person.

That was it.

You'll meet your prince.

Zorreguieta!

Hi!

- Hi! - What are you doing here?

It doesn't matter.

Listen to me, I have two questions.

Why aren't you answering my calls? Second question.

Where have you been? You're missing out, baby.

I am a little busy.

Right, but we're all busy.

Listen, I'm taking you to a party.

I'm done with parties at this moment.

- You don't want to miss this. - I'm serious.

I'm serious as well.

I didn't even say where we're going.

We're going...

To Spain.

- No. - To Seville, yes. La Feria de Abril.

Philippe and Ana have a huge house where we can stay, it'll be fun!

I have to go to London for work, I can't come to Seville.

Even better! Then you can take a flight from there.

Listen, there will be a lot of interesting men.

And...

Even a prince.

I told you, now I've sparked your interest.

I don't want to hear anything, call me.

Bye.

I'm sorry.

So they were being placed to sit next to each other at this big table

full of important people.

And then, right before they were being served shellfish,

and they get these bowls with water and lemon, to rinse their fingers.

But the Prime Minister of Japan decides that he should drink it.

So my grandmother sees the reactions on the faces of the other guests,

and you know what she does?

She gets her own bowl,

and she downs the whole thing in one go without hesitation.

What?

She was a woman who didn't really care a lot about protocols,

she used to walk alongside the red carpet, but the red carpet always had to be there.

And your mother?

She can be pretty formal.

A little bit too much sometimes,

but I think she would've done the same in this case because she's a...

she's a very sweet person.

I won't keep you in the dark anymore.

I know.

Hello, beautiful.

Hey.

Did you sleep?

- You? - A little.

Sweet.

A part of your integration.

The ice is thick enough, and...

We have a couple of hours before we have to leave, so.

Now?

Nothing's more Dutch than ice skating.

You'll have to learn anyway.

So, why not now?

No, I...

I'm exhausted and your country doesn't even want me, so...

- Your Prime Minister, he... - Screw him.

Screw him.

Screw van der Stoel, screw everyone, screw my country.

I don't care about them,

all I care about is you and me.

Trust me, you want this.
