All language subtitles for Night Stage (2025)

I think they're coming.

I know.

We're two weeks away from opening night.

And we still don't have the ending.

- You're very violent on stage.
- Not everyone. Fabio and Matias.

- What?
- Everyone had their moment.

- I don't think so.
- We're not the only ones.

Everyone is jumping higher
than each other.

If I hit someone in the face
and cut their eyebrow open,

I'm not gonna feel responsible.

So now we have to control
ourselves because you two can't...

Your job as an actress is also
to control yourself on stage.

If your body is not stiff,
you hurt me.

- But that was early in rehearsals.
- It still hurts.

Everybody, calm down. Listen.

Sorry, Chico.
But you know what,

the way you're talking
reflects what's happening.

The way you talk is violent on itself.

I don't know what you do
with your lives...

you can hide whatever you want
from me. But from the stage...

no one hides.

What was that?

- "Discreet 35" sent a text.
- Fuck you, Fabio!

This is what I'm saying, guys.
No one is listening.

I'm 100% focused
on the play, Larissa.

- And I'm not?
- I don't know,

- you're sexting during rehearsal.
- You're reading other people's texts.

Hey! I don't know what to do with you.
You live together...

I don't know if I let you kill each
other or if I fire you from the play.

Look. The two you asked for.

Matias and Fabio.

Fabio, right?

That's right.

I'm Pamela.

I'm a casting producer.

I know.

They mentioned you'd
come to see the rehearsal.

Really?

What else did they say?

That a series will be shot
here in Porto Alegre.

And you're casting the series.

It's a big production.

Almost the whole cast is not from here.

Except the main characters.
We want unknown faces.

I think you fit what we're looking for.

And what is that?

The character is brute...

a womanizer...

seductive.

Take my card.

Get in touch.
We'll schedule an audition.

Sure.

I'm going to love it.

I'll be waiting, then.

Thank you.

Great job.

Thank you.

Nice!

Well done. You deserve it.

- No more frozen pizza.
- I can see that.

Don't walk around alone
at night, Matias.

This city has been very dangerous.

Matias?

There's no number 57.

The office is a few blocks from here.

Then why did you
give me this address?

I don't want anyone
to see someone arriving.

We drive there and get in
through the driveway.

Get in.

Are you married?

What if I am?

DISCREET, 35

Yeah...

Looks like it.

ZENESUL
Construction and Real Estate

Is this house yours?

It's my first time here.

They gave me the house
to work here for a while.

It's going to be demolished next year.

They will demolish this?

I know...

Thanks.

These people have so much money,
demolishing this house means nothing to them.

You didn't say your name.

Rafael.

Rafael.

You're not from here.

I moved here two months ago.

And you do this a lot?

Going out with guys from apps.

I prefer meeting at parties,
but it's nice to vary.

And I'm a variation?

I don't think you're someone
I'd meet at a night out.

What about you?

Meet a lot of guys from apps?

No.

Then I'm a variation.

Just to make it clear...

I never go on second dates.

And today you woke up
thinking "I need to fuck."

They gave me the keys
to this house tonight.

I thought I should enjoy it
before it becomes an office.

And you can have sex here?

We're committing a crime, then.

Speaking of sex...

I have to wake up early tomorrow.

Look at me as I tell you this.

I know you're a professional
at running away, but enough.

You're not afraid of me.

You're afraid of my love.

It's a mess, I know,
but it's real. Don't laugh.

This is the mess
I have to offer you.

You don't know how much
it hurts when you run away.

I don't want to wake up
and feel that you just came home,

while I ask myself where the hell
has she been all night.

I think it's good, Fabio.

Really?

You're managing
to be more contained.

Acting for the camera,
it's what these people want.

But... there's a lack of presence.

Yes. I'm having
a hard time finding it.

I'm afraid to be over the top.

- To the cameras.
- You won't. They want emotional potential.

Do it like this...

Think of something that you,
Fabio, want a lot.

Now use this text to say it.

Let me see.

The beginning. Ok?

If you hit the ground
running, you'll win them over.

Look at me as I tell you this.

I know you're a professional
at running away, but enough.

You're not afraid of me.

You're afraid of my love.

It's a mess, I know, but it's real.

Yes! Totally, man.

I think this dude is confused,
he doesn't know what he's feeling.

- So I don't know...
- But this is the moment you need to find.

Where the character lets his
guard down and shows his essence.

Matias.

- Matias!
- Huh?

Be careful, you're too loose.
Focus on the rigidity.

Ok.

Fabio. Don't rush, or else you'll fall
by yourself. Calm down. Calm down.

There.

Breathe.

That's it.

Now you start to turn.

No, guys! No!

One of you has to stay up there.

It can't be both of you
to fall, you know that.

- Can't it be wider?
- No. It's supposed to be hard.

- It's the end of the play.
- What if we both stay?

If you both stay,
one has to push the other.

Only one can survive.

Then, the one who stays...
Then... Pay attention.

The one who stays...

says the final monologue
and finishes the play.

But I need one of you to stay. Ok?

- Let's go.
- One more time. Go.

Damn it!
Let me go!

Come!

Hey.

Not here.

Aren't you too hot
to be a businessman?

Can actors have tattoos?

My mom was sick. I promised
I'd get one if she got better.

Do you get along?

Yeah, I think so.

Far away from each other.

I see.

- So you came here to be a theater actor.
- Yeah.

I got called to be in the new
play of the Tremor group.

Yeah, they're amazing.

Congrats.

What about TV and film?
Have you done it?

No.

But I'd love to.

Got it.

To become famous
and make your mom proud.

Have you heard they'll
shoot a big series here?

Won't you audition?

I don't think I'm what
they're looking for.

It must be the tattoo.

Matias, I moved back
here not too long ago.

For a new phase in my career.

A lot of people wanted
my current position.

The older and more traditional folks...

said that I didn't exude confidence.

You know what I did?

I went after everyone
who could help me.

I listened one by one.

What they looked for
in this new person.

Then I started to transform...

convincing them
that I was this ideal person.

And when they find out
you're not who you say you are?

- That what you were doing...
- Like a theater?

Yes. A theater.

Will it put you in trouble?

Matias, I don't want to be
the supporting actor. Do you?

To be the main character,
you need to offer what they want.

You have to give up some things.

Shit.

- Go hide.
- What?

Hide in the car.

- Mr. Rafael?
- Yes.

Don't worry, she doesn't bite.

Nice to meet you, I'm Camilo.

Head of Security of Zenesul.

Yes, yes.

Dr. Otavio spoke fondly of you.

He said you're his best employee.

Collaborator.

And one of the oldest.

He put me in charge to take
care of you personally.

I'm here to solve any problem.

Nice. I'm looking forward
to working together.

Sorry to come unannounced,
I didn't think someone would be here.

I ended up working until late.

It's better if you rest.
The marathon starts this week.

It's true.

Good night, then.

Good night.

Mr. Rafael?

Yes?

Dr. Otavio is very thrilled about you.

He doesn't usually make mistakes.

Stay down.

Want to come in?

I have a full day tomorrow.

Good luck.

With what?

With the series and the theater.

Good luck to you too.

You're not afraid of me.
You're afraid of my love.

It's a mess, I know, but it's real...

Look at me as I tell you this.

You're not afraid of me,
you're afraid of my love.

It's a mess, but it's real.

I know you're a professional
at running away, but enough.

You're not afraid of me,
you're afraid of my love.

Matias...

Matias...

Your name is not here.

Are you sure it's today?

- That's what Pamela said.
- Was it Pamela who scheduled?

Yes. She even gave me her card.

Here.

Hello, welcome. Sofia Alcântara.
Director of the series.

Excuse me?

Wasn't it just duos?

- What are you doing here?
- Me?

I came to audition.

- Look, there must have been a mistake.
- Ok, fine.

Let's keep going. I'm tired.

To make things faster,
take these two to the studio.

I'll interview him,
and we switch later.

Sounds good.

This way, please.

My name is Matias.
I'm 23 years old.

- And where are you from, Matias?
- Engenho Velho. Do you know it?

It's one of the smallest towns
in the state. Not even 2000 inhabitants.

And what did you do there?

My mom is a veterinary.

I helped her.

You came for the play
of the Tremor group?

They're great.

I know Larissa's work for a long
time, we've been friends for ten years.

Has the play changed since that rehearsal?

A bit.

I became the main character.

- Wow. Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Why do you want to do TV
if theater is going so well for you?

TV is what saved my life.

- I'm serious.
- TV?

I'm serious, really.
I had insomnia as a kid.

When those moments arrived
I'd go to the living room...

turn on the TV,
put on a movie and stay there.

I'd imagine myself as the characters.

I'd imagine myself
living those adventures.

Getting to know other lives.
Lives that were very different than mine.

And that's what got me out of loneliness.

You know?

That's beautiful.

But let's move to the theme of our series.

Let's do it.

Tell me one of your love stories.

- What do you mean?
- If you feel comfortable, of course.

- I remembered a good one.
- Oh. I want to listen.

I was in eighth grade...

and I was a loner around that time.

But then a new student joined the class.

Everyone thought she
was kind of weird, but not me.

To me, it seemed like she
had come from another world.

Since I was very shy,
I didn't go talk to her.

But that was also when
theater came into my life.

They started to offer a theater course

in a city nearby,
30 km from Engenho Velho.

I enrolled,
and she did the same.

- We would go together, talking...
- What was her name?

Larissa.

Larissa...

The same name as the
director of your play.

Exactly.

Listen, Matias...

I really admire the will
you have to grab this role.

I know it's hard.

But I can't let you do this monologue.

Why not?

Let me show the director
I know how to act.

I know you know how to act.
I saw you on stage, you're great.

Then what?

We need the main actor
to match who the character is.

In front and behind the camera.

This is what works for the audience
and for the people who invest.

But there will be other characters.

Characters more like you.

Sometimes they come up with more
fluid characters. It's in demand.

But it's not going
to work for this character.

I'm sorry.

Rafael!

Just a second.

Can I help you?

I want to talk to Rafael.

It's not a good moment.

It won't take long.

I want to grab my jacket.

I left it here.

Dr. Otavio, you can go inside
and talk to him. I'll meet you later.

Ok. Good idea. Let's go.

Can you leave, please?

Dude, I'm having a horrible day.
Please...

I take care of Mr. Rafael.
I know he's not waiting for you.

Then you're not doing a good job.

I'm sure he'll have me.

I'm going to tell you something
that's for your own good.

Leave and don't come back, ok?

Don't touch me!

- Don't shout.
- Rafael!

VOTE FOR RAFAEL MENDES
MAYOR

Go!

It's life or death.

He’s not expecting this.

Notice his knee. Pull his leg.

Go.

Take control of the situation.

Is this the ending you want
for your character?

Turn the game around.

What are you doing here?

- I want to have a quick chat.
- I have nothing to talk to you.

Especially with this clown by your side.

You're a councilman.

Are you running for mayor?

I want to apologize for yesterday.

It was a misunderstanding.

You're afraid I'll make
this public, right?

I shouldn't have behaved
like that with you, sir.

If you're Mr. Rafael's friend,
you're my friend too.

- You're friends with Rafael Mendes?
- No. We were only fucking.

Can we talk for a bit?

For fuck's sake, Matias!

Matias...

I built my life for this moment.

I have to be careful
not to screw things up.

Dude. You're wasting your time if you're
here to do political campaigning.

I don't want your vote.

Will I be in the secretariat,
then, if you get elected?

I was serious when I said
I don't go on second dates.

You were the first one.

Kiss me, then.

What?

Come here. Kiss me.

- You know I can't.
- Why not?

Kiss me.

When you get what you want...

you'll also have to rethink
the way you behave.

SOLD OUT

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

I have two reserved tickets.
Sofia Alcântara.

Opening night.

Voice, tone, body.

Time to go all in.

Grab every chance you get on stage.

Break a leg!

Break a leg!

It was a night with disorienting time.

The hours seemed twisted,
and the breathing heavy.

It all felt like a dream.

But be careful, my son.
To dream, you must be alive.

I need to admit to myself, I'm the only
one responsible for my failure.

No one, no matter their position,

can be ruined except
for their own actions. Got it?

No. I don't understand.

- I don't believe you think that.
- I think that. Of course I do.

Maybe the world has been cruel
to us, no doubt about that.

But what we've done against ourselves...

it's way more devastating.

Matias... I have to stay
up there tonight. Ok?

I need you to fall.

Sofia, the director of the series,
is here. She came to see me.

It's your turn.

No. She came to see me.

He fell.

An owl cuts through the skies
but it does not approach.

It gets scared.

With my sweaty body
and my face stained with blood...

At first, a sense of dread takes over me.

And, soon after, relief.

Things happen differently up here.

The wind seems to push me...

The ground seems to pull me,
and my body starts to betray me.

But with each second I stay
up here, I feel stronger.

This is the closest anyone
can feel to a god.

I wonder if people down
there pass by and think...

"who's that giant man?"

If I stay here...

will they remember me?

If I fall...

will my crash wake them up?

How long do you think
I'll endure up here?

We debuted in grand style!

That's it!

- Great night.
- Matias...

- What a great monologue.
- It was amazing.

Are you happy with this shit?
Are you happy?

- Congratulations!
- Hey, hey, hey!

- You idiot! Go fuck yourself!
- Matias. Enough.

- Grab these. Now.
- I won't grab anything.

- Leave him.
- Let me go.

- Get lost, asshole.
- I'll talk to him.

I've never been to this part of the city.

My parents worked as housekeepers nearby,
so I used to come here a lot.

I liked when they worked until late.

I stayed here playing.

It felt like the city was looking at me.

Then my dad died,
my mom married again,

and we moved to Rio.

I haven't been here
since that time.

A new City Hall poll came out.

- I gained eight points, I'm in second.
- Congratulations.

Wait.

"Rafael, I really liked Matias.

Thanks for inviting me to see the play.

I'll talk to him about
the series tomorrow.

Sofia."

Is this for real?

- I didn't ask you for anything.
- But I didn't do anything.

As a politician, I only helped
to bring the series here.

And tonight I invited Sofia
to see the play, that's it.

You're the one who amazed her.

Soon, the people down
there will be watching you.

Are you ready for this?

Your face will be everywhere.

People will recognize you.

Very.

Very.

Hide, hide.

Come here, come.

Come.

- Hey! Look at these guys fucking!
- Go!

When I saw the director there...

I thought it was my chance
to grab this role.

Didn't you already show
your work in the audition?

- Yes.
- So?

But that was her chance
to see me on stage.

The deal is, whoever knocks
the other down stays up there.

Tonight, it was me.

Do you think you have
what they're looking for?

That's for them to decide.

I hope one of us get the role, then.

Yeah.

Listen, Matias, I know we don't
know each other for long...

Ok?

We live together, work together,
and compete for the same role. It's a lot.

We have been at odds.

But I shouldn't have done that.

Sometimes I do things without thinking.

But when you get to know me better...

you'll see that you can count on me.

I'm gonna go.
I'll sleep at Joana's.

Now we need to
find in Matias...

the brutality.

This energy that is more rigid...

Bento doesn't gesture
too much, he smiles infrequently...

He doesn't have a delicate
posture, you know?

Yeah. No worries.

I'm a trained actor, I can do this.

- Great.
- Excuse me, is everything alright?

- Yes.
- Sorry to eavesdrop, are you actors?

He is.

- I should know him, then.
- You'll know him soon enough.

- Do you mind taking a picture?
- No. Let's do it.

Thank you. Enjoy.

Thanks.

Matias, are you on social media?

Let me see.

Here.

Is this your group
of friends in the party?

It's the people from the theater.

That's true, I'm recognizing some faces.

This photo of your bare butt here.
Unnecessary, right?

That's not something we post.
We charge for it.

Ok. You're right.

Is the guy you're kissing your boyfriend?

No. He's just a friend. We gave
each other a peck for the picture.

Nice.

It's cool that you're an open guy.
But you're going to be...

introducing yourself
to a whole country for the first time.

That it's not your little theater group.

The country will
be learning how to know you.

You don't need to delete these posts.

But do archive them.
Leave them just for yourself.

Mainly these more intimate ones
that reveal too much about Matias.

You'll be dealing with a specific group
as you play a leading heartthrob.

Build this imaginary world.

So that people can watch Bento...

but fantasize about Matias.

Ok.

The contract has a conduct clause. Ok?

It's a sponsorship thing.

But this clause allows
the network to fire you

in case something in your
personal life affects the series.

You're the center of all this.

If you don't work...

the series doesn't work.

You understand me?

It's confirmed!

It's going to change my career.

- Success!
- It's going to change my career.

Hey.

I love the outfit.

Rafael?

What are you doing here?

Is that you?

There's too many people here.
Let's go somewhere else.

Let's go.

Have you been here before?

Let's go over there.

- Are you closeted or something?
- No.

I just don't want to be seen with anyone.

Dude, listen...

You didn't want to kiss
me at the bar to not be seen

but you want to have sex here
where the whole city can come anytime?

No one is coming.

Look...

I'm gonna go.

Busy day today, Mr. Matias.

I'm going to put your hair away.

- This color is beautiful.
- What do you think? Are you comfortable?

I like it.

- Sonia...
- Yes?

- Can you check if there's more chairs?
- There's none, I already checked.

Sonia. Check again.

Alright.

It's been a while, Mr. Matias.

Look at you.

I love the style.

Do you need anything?

Rafael.

He's in the office.
He has a meeting soon.

I won't take long.

Are you crazy coming here?

You left me alone at the cruising.

What cruising?

I can't do anything in public.

If they catch us having sex
at the park, everything will be over.

But it would be amazing.

It would.

But it can't happen.

How are you?

- All good. You?
- Great.

Mr. Rafael?

Yes?

They started to arrive.

There's a meeting with
the sponsors of the campaign.

- Didn't they give money already?
- Part of it, yes.

But now I have to listen to expectations.

Align interests.

What if they learn you're
fucking a guy upstairs?

Will this be in their expectations?

What if I go downstairs
with my dick hanging out?

Does this count as "aligning interests"?

Go.

All is set, Mr. Rafael.

And if you allow me,
I want to grab two chairs.

Sure.

It's ok, I can take one.

Excuse me.

When Rafael's people came to me looking
for funding for the campaign...

it generated a lot of debate

here at Zenesul. Not because of the
character of the candidate, of course.

But because he's young
and has more modern ideas.

He's not as aligned to ideology
as we would like him to be.

I even told him: "Rafael...

your committee has to be here.

Here at Zenesul.
To diversify your electorate."

Then, Rafael promised me three things...

First, he would turn
Porto Alegre into a better city.

Ok, I have no doubts about that.

You can take a look at Rafael
and see what kind of citizen he is.

Second, that he wouldn't let progress...

sorry for my contractor language...

he wouldn't let the pillars
of this city be shaken.

Third, and most important...

we are going to win this election!

Yes!

After the results
of these first polls...

I decided to put a new personal
investment in the campaign.

This campaign will win and bring
profits to each one of us.

Especially to our city.

LOCAL ACTOR IS FEATURED
IN A NEW NATIONAL SERIES

Matias Oliveira has been invited
to act in a national series.

- Amazing.
- Fabio, grab some for us.

- Look at this picture.
- Great picture.

RAFAEL MENDES SURGES AHEAD
IN THE RACE FOR THE MAYORSHIP

I thought you were gonna sleep at Joana's.

I was. But we ended up
fighting and I decided to come back.

We met at the park, right?

- A few weeks ago.
- Yes, I remember.

- I saw you in the play. You were great.
- Thank you.

Will you be in the series too?

Coming!

Do you know what time it is?

- 10:05 PM.
- Quiet time is 10 PM.

You're five minutes late, then.

- I think it's better if I go.
- Ok.

Guys...

Please, stay.
I'll be in my room,

- you'll have your privacy.
- No, it's fine. It's already late.

- I'll walk you to the car.
- Hey!

Stay a bit longer.

If you go now, you will
bump into the crazy guy in the hall.

You make a beautiful couple.

I can't remember the last
time I've been to a club.

You weren't that bad
for someone out of practice.

That's because I hooked up
with the hottest guy in the party.

Yes!

Let's go, team!

Down.

JOIN THE CHANGE

Want some stickers?

No. Thank you.

I want to talk to Rafael.

Do you have an appointment?

No, but he'll want to hear
what I have to say.

Who else has this video?

No one, for now.

But I have it saved in other places.

Your boss won't want to lose all
money invested when this video leaks.

- Fabio?
- That's right.

Fabio...

Today, there are gay politicians.

- Gay actors. The world has changed.
- Yeah, maybe.

A few. The ones that behave.

The ones who impose respect.

But not one who fucks
out in the open.

Near a family.

Exposed to anyone.

Who's going to accept that?

What do you want?

I want Matias to lose the role
and for me to join the cast.

And how will I do that?

- I have nothing to do with these people.
- Rafael took the director to see Matias.

I'm sure you can find a way.

You're the biggest construction
company in the state.

I could be asking
for a brand new apartment.

Trust me, I'm being reasonable.

What a great friend you are.

And why can Matias have
everything and I have nothing?

You think Matias has everything?

One more thing...

he can't know...

under any circumstances.

Look, I'm not a bad person. Ok?

I just don't like when
people take what's mine.

I'm going to fix this,
it went too far anyway.

Thank you for showing me the video.

Fabio.

One of the actors of the series
is causing a lot of trouble.

They want to replace him.

I told them about you.

For real?

Remember Sofia, the director?

When I told her your name,
she said "the boy with the big smile"?

She seemed interested.

It's not a sure thing yet,
but I'm having a good feeling.

Let's just say we're even.

I forgot to put it on silent.

I already know who it is.

The elections are coming...

he's nervous and said
he needs to talk to me.

We're gonna meet after this.

Done.

Matias.

Thank you.

If you need anything...

really, anything...

let me know.

Ok.

Hey.

Chill, dude.

Are you ok?

Yeah.

- I am. I'm just tired.
- Relax, man.

Everyone has bad days.

Get some rest.
Tomorrow will be better.

Damn. It's the same shit every night.

C'mon, I already warned you
not to be loud.

I won’t be long.

I just need to go inside to sign
a contract and grab some documents.

We can go to my apartment afterwards.

- Stay at home?
- Rafael...

Can we go inside for a minute?

Let's go?

Sure.

Did something happen?

Mr. Matias...

Dr. Otavio has a meeting with Mr. Rafael,
I believe it's going to be a long one.

But I'll take you home.

Can you believe not even Mr. Rafael
knows everything I do for him?

You know, it's part of me to
take care of people.

I've taken care of my family...
Of my first boss...

Of my new boss.

And now I take care of Mr. Rafael.

And a little bit of you too.
Right, Mr. Matias?

I think this is yours.

Can I give you some advice?

Stay away from Mr. Rafael.
Don't look for him anymore.

I guarantee he's not gonna
look for you anymore.

You two fought a lot
to get where you are.

So many people invested in you both.

Everyone has the right
to live as they choose.

As long as it's in privacy.

But, of course...

You two don't have privacy anymore,
you're public people now.

You're getting everything you want.

Your mom must be really proud.

Mrs. Rosângela, correct?

This city is very dangerous.

Who knows, maybe things will get
a bit better with Mr. Rafael in charge.

Fabio? Fabio?

Fear of flying?

- Do you want me to grab you some water?
- No, no. It's ok.

It's this trip.
It's not one I wanted to take.

If you want to talk about it...

I don't want to bother you with this.

I'm free for the next two hours.

How about this?
I really need a cup of water.

I'll grab one for us
and you tell me your story?

Sorry, I know this question
might sound weird,

but don't I know you
from somewhere?

Nevermind. We're gonna talk about this.

Done?

- Are you going back to Rio?
- Yes.

Only for three days,
then I start a soap opera.

Wow.

- It's good that things are happening.
- Yeah, but I regret a little bit. Thanks.

Why?

Because I feel like I've been typecast
and now they call me for the same stuff.

Well, you must be used to this.

Actually, this is my first role, so...

- This is your first gig?
- Yeah.

You're great, did you know that?

- Do you have an agent?
- Not yet, but I'm looking for one.

I can recommend you
to my agent, he's great.

Do you think you can lose your accent?
He's gonna ask you that.

I can try.

Can I give you an advice?
The less he knows about you the better.

You get me, right?

Yes.

Yes, I am.

Mom, I'll call you later, ok?

Candidate Rafael Mendes, you have
one minute for your final remarks.

Thank you, Jaqueline.

I want to talk to you.

I'd like to thank everyone
who watched us tonight.

And I have a revelation to make.

I believe in our society.

I believe that each one
of us has a crucial role

to fulfill in it.

I've been preparing
for this moment for a long time.

I dedicated my life to this.

And I stay strong
because I believe in this city.

And because the city speaks to me.
It begs for change.

For passion.

There are moments in our lives
that we have to choose who we'll be.

Just like now it's one of these moments.

I'm sure that on this Sunday...

the people from Porto Alegre will know how
to choose the candidate to lead this city.

Someone to represent the citizens.
All of us.

And all the strength of our people.

Thank you very much.
And join the change.

Excuse me.

I'm so sorry.

For what?

For all of this.

People were saying you'll be elected.

I will.

How have the shootings been?

A journalist came to the set today.

She asked a lot of nasty questions.

Did you answer them well?

It gets easier with time.

It's all a theater.

This is the best moment
of our lives, Matias.

Think about all that's yet to come.

This Sunday, I'll win the election.

And become mayor.

After years building this moment.

Did you know that I was terrified
of public speaking when I was a child?

I used to stutter.

To break a sweat.

To cry.

We learn things.

I'll be sitting in the most
important chair of this city.

Can you imagine?

Changing people's lives?
Improving all of this?

Soon, your series will air.

They'll recognize
you everywhere you go.

Every night, you'll get inside
the homes of people you don't know.

They'll go to bed thinking...

"Who is this actor who
understands me so well?"

You, with your job,
and me, with mine...

we give our example.

Because that's what
people like us do.

You'll premiere a play,
and I'll be there to watch.

It's part of a mayor's job, right?

At the end, I'll go up on stage
and greet the cast.

We'll look each other in the eyes.

We'll shake hands. And smile.

On vacation, who knows, we might
cross paths in another country.

By chance.

In the same city.

At the same time.

And in a few years...

when we both
have established careers...

and people already respect us...

if we have done
everything the right way...

we'll be able to make this public.

It won't matter that much anymore.

I'll continue winning elections.

You'll have the best roles.

And inside our home...

our moments will be just ours.

No one will complain about that.

What's going on?

Dad, don’t go there. Don’t.

I was at the bar and heard a gunshot.

I think they're coming.

I know.

Point the light across the bridge.

Babe, turn on the camera.

NIGHT STAGE
