Original subtitles

Could you be wrong?

Yes, everything is possible.

I agree with you.

I'll try to make you have your five

cents.

Thank you.

I was looking for you.

I'm tired of giving you direct.

Here we are throwing away time and money.

I'm holding a plant that I could move

to Cappia.

Stay calm.

I know what I'm doing.

There's a plasterboard down there.

We won't be able to break it even

in five minutes.

Listen, here I decide and we continue.

On the phone, in the company.

Let's go.

Finger, Aschi, finger, not fingers.

Okay, boss.

Then you find with finger and I still

study.

Good, good.

See you tomorrow.

Finger.

Finger.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Bye.

Bye.

May God bless you.

May God bless you with joy.

May God bless you with health.

Keep it.

I really want a cold beer.

All right.

What time is it?

Oh my, how much I slept.

I didn't hear you coming.

How hot it is today.

It was a terrible heat.

And you?

How did things go?

As usual.

Everything is the same since the day here.

I want some snow.

Gray.

You wanted so much to come down here.

And now you're getting nostalgic.

I like this place a lot.

The people.

The heat, the smells.

The colors.

The colors are my passion.

Strawberry.

Purple.

Purple.

Purple and gray don't go well together.

I don't like it.

Gold.

No color goes well with gray.

It's a vampire color.

Vampire?

Like me?

What did you do

today?

As usual.

I took some pictures.

And I was in a very sinister place.

I've told you many times.

I don't have to look for trouble.

I have to be careful.

But I need to move.

Nothing can happen to me.

What are you worried about?

I'm worried about you.

What do you mean?

Guess.

Where do you get your ideas from?

From all the gray that awaits us.

I don't understand.

It will be beautiful.

With all the colors.

Go!

Like this.

Here's the money.

You won.

Thank you.

Here's a consolation prize.

Thank you.

Hello.

Hello.

Can you tell me how to get to

the ruins?

Can I take the jeep?

No, you can only go on foot or

horseback.

Like us.

Can I come with you?

Can I go on horseback?

No, but there's always a first time.

Let's go on horseback.

Let's go.

Don't worry, I'll hold it.

I'm not worried at all.

Are you on vacation

too?

No, I live in the village.

Are you a photographer?

In a way.

I work at the club.

Do you like horseback riding?

Yes.

Let's take a picture.

The tourists are all the same.

How funny.

Poor camel.

Let's take a picture.

Sure.

See you later.

I'm leaving tomorrow.

I don't believe you.

Goodbye.

Those camels were really funny.

It's a place you have to see.

Think about it.

2,000 years ago the Romans built here

in the middle of the desert an amphitheater

that still exists.

They said that in the Roman Empire the

sun never set.

What are you doing?

I work with this jeep.

I like it when you talk like that.

I can't get angry with you.

I don't know why.

What do they want to find?

Nothing.

They're just looking for something.

That mirror could have stayed.

It's horrible when you meet only half of

your face.

You force yourself to keep looking.

Shall we go?

Yes, you drive.

You too?

Yes, maybe.

It would be a shame if you two

left.

Have you really decided to leave us?

Yes.

If they accept my conditions I'll be their

competitor.

It's not easy to work with Kurt.

But if we find the oil I'll change

my mind.

No, it's not the only problem.

I can't stand this place anymore.

Especially for you.

After a while life here becomes difficult.

Without a friend, a fun, nice people to

talk to.

Except for you two, of course.

He wants to go back to Europe.

I miss the cinema too.

They visited you in Austria.

I want to spend those rainy days in

a bed with a good book.

This is life.

If you think about it, it doesn't take

much.

You two are a special couple.

Why special?

I've never seen you argue.

You've never seen us.

We always argue.

But in secret.

It's not true.

Sir, they want you on the phone.

Excuse me.

That way.

You're really lucky.

Why?

Because of you.

Jeff, you're the best friend I've ever had.

I wanted to be something more for you.

And you know it.

Yes, I know.

But you see, I'm in love with him.

And I could never hurt him.

I can't do it.

I don't deserve it.

I told you.

You're really lucky.

Something happened at the well.

We have to go.

What happened?

I'll explain later.

I'll tell you in the car.

Hurry!

Slow down!

He was here.

He locked himself in the office.

That son of a bitch!

I knew it.

And don't tell me I didn't warn you.

I'll call you tomorrow.

Good night.

Someone is out there.

And you're on the phone.

I couldn't help you.

Let's go.

Are you done?

I'm in charge of this place.

You'll be satisfied.

That son of a bitch did it.

Let's go.

We have to check the damage.

There's nothing else to do.

We'll never make it.

It's not over yet.

I'm sure we can fix the well tomorrow.

We just have to hope that the well

is not damaged.

Turn on the generator!

Hello?

Is that you, Jeff?

Yes.

He's not here.

Do you want me to look for him?

No, I just wanted to tell you something.

It's not important.

I'll tell him tonight at home.

I want to talk to you about something.

It's urgent.

Yes.

Is it about Alfredo?

No.

It's about me.

I saw you last night.

I don't want to talk about it.

There's nothing to talk about.

And now I really have to go.

Don't look for me.

Do me a favor.

I love you.

Not even today.

Was it for me?

I hope they'll answer me soon.

So we can go before it rains.

Maybe with my photos I could do an

exhibition in Europe.

What do you think?

If they like it, I could become a

professional.

Work for an agency.

Or for a newspaper.

But I have to do more.

Look for new images and new subjects.

Of course.

You have a lot of material.

I love your photos.

It's not enough for me.

If you want to do something, you have

to be demanding.

Otherwise, you're mediocre.

That's not how you want me.

I have a wedding party on the beach.

Can I go?

Yes, of course.

Have fun.

What if I raped you?

Would you like it?

Would you be able to?

I can try.

Do you like it?

It's a bit ridiculous, isn't it?

What's so ridiculous about it?

No.

I changed my mind.

Now I want to make love on the

sand.

And feel the wind whistling in my ears.

No.

Let's go to the party.

Come on.

Wait!

You don't look well.

Come.

Thank you.

Why do you speak my language?

My father was European.

My mother, on the other hand, was Berber.

Once there were many tribes.

But now...

it's over.

Young people prefer to work in the city.

Excuse me, I have to go.

Wait, sweet lady.

Here.

It's for you.

This is a talisman.

It contains magic sand.

You have to give it to the man

you love.

And he will love you forever.

Take it.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

You don't have to thank me.

Goodbye.

Where have you been?

I couldn't find you.

What's wrong?

I'm a bit tired.

Let's go home.

Put this on.

Are you all right?

Yes, thank you.

What's that?

A talisman.

With this I can do all the magic

I want.

Take it.

Now that you have it, you will love

me forever.

No, not this.

You can't do this to me.

You can't.

I don't want to make you love me

forever.

I don't need talismans to be linked to

you.

You know that.

Don't you ever lose the sand in this

ball.

We will keep the magic sand.

And now with your talisman I am linked

to you.

Who told you that the ball is linked

to you?

Weren't you the one who was going to

rape me?

You didn't show up.

I don't know.

I was very busy.

I understand.

Listen.

I'm your friend.

Why don't you trust me?

What is it?

Have I changed my mind?

I'm not your best friend anymore.

We are not a special couple anymore.

Everyone has a problem.

It will be a difficult life.

Maybe.

I don't know.

Problems can be solved.

You just have to face them.

If only you let me.

You want to help me too.

Don't try to understand.

You will only waste time.

Nothing has changed for me.

I love him very much.

Listen.

Wait, please.

I love him.

You'll regret it.

Who is she?

Where are you going?

Wait.

What happened?

You don't remember me?

You forgot everything.

Leave her alone.

Get out of here.

I'm sorry,

it's closed.

Go away, please, I just want to wash

my hands.

No, there's no bathroom here.

Don't listen to him, come here.

I'm looking for soap.

I saw a lady coming in, where is

she?

There's no one here.

Where do you want to go?

Don't touch me, do you understand?

What are you looking for?

A lady, a lady.

I'm sorry, there are no ladies here.

Look for the other one.

Get back to work.

That won't bother you anymore.

They are

beautiful, they are very fresh.

Look, they caught them now.

So why don't you take this nice octopus?

I had

to see you again.

I was sure you'd be back.

You freed me from that butcher.

I want to make it up to you.

Yes, you like it, we're the same.

No, I'm not like you.

I was waiting for you.

I was starting to worry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'll leave you something to eat.

Are you hungry?

No, not at all.

A coffee?

Yes, perhaps.

What's wrong?

It was just a bad dream.

Calm down now.

You have wet hair.

I took a bath in the sea.

It's cold, you're shaking.

I'm fine, but how long are we going

to stay here?

So, nothing's up?

Not even today?

Nothing happened.

Hey, don't talk to me anymore, don't tell

me anything.

Maybe because I have nothing to tell you.

How beautiful those flowers are.

You are like that.

Why are you crying?

I'm here, I can help you.

I don't need help.

Please.

I'm tired.

I'm just tired.

Listen, listen.

Wait, wait.

We'll leave.

Everything will change.

Everything will change.

Tell me, tell me something.

What, what?

You can't do without me anymore.

No, that's not true.

What you like, and come back to me.

No.

Life is dear here.

And pleasure is part of life.

Is there something wrong?

Apart from the fact that I'm a failure

everywhere, for the rest, it's fine.

Oh, it's you.

I didn't hear you coming.

What did the man I saw leave want?

Oh, he was interested in the house, since

we're leaving.

You?

Did you find the letter?

They didn't accept all my conditions, but it's

okay anyway.

Oh, it's you.

Why did you go to my house?

It's none of your business.

You'll leave me one day.

Tomorrow, maybe, or the day after tomorrow.

You'll return to Europe.

You'll have a nice house, a nice car,

you'll live in luxury.

I made a deal with your husband.

I need money, a lot of money.

Do you understand?

I want to leave one day too.

You dared to ask him for money.

I want to know the truth.

What did you tell him?

Nothing in particular, don't worry.

You know, he's a guy more on his

feet than I thought.

But he's a weak man, a sentimental one.

Leave him, stay with me.

We'll leave together.

You're a bastard.

This way.

He's down there.

So?

They took him away.

They're interrogating the guy who lived with him.

And you?

Nobody knows anything about the lady.

Oh no, it can't be.

I don't know what to think, she's gone.

There's no trace of her.

Not even at the airport.

I have to find her.

Does she have a family?

Never.

Only me.

I couldn't protect her.

It's not your fault.

Do you think she loved me?

Of course she loved you.

She'll come back.

What?

Yes, okay.

Jeff, I can't.

I have some traces.

When do I have to be in Houston?

Better like this.

10, 15 days, at least 15 days.

Yes, I'll be there.

I think you're working for a newspaper.

I couldn't make an appointment.

I was rejected by the press office and

one of the secretaries.

I'd say you gave up.

That's bad.

I heard the royal family was at a

foreign delegation.

So I decided to go.

And I went.

So did I.

I waited in line for the presentation.

I asked to be photographed.

You did your job.

It's always possible.

There's nothing impossible.

Excuse me.

Come on.

Why?

Why?

Come on.

Wait, please, you can't go like this.

I looked for you so much, I also

hoped so much to see you again.

I had so many things to tell you

and now I'm so confused that day after

what happened I was desperate I felt empty

alone I knew I shouldn't leave you but

I still wanted to make a mistake.

Listen, I don't say anything.

No, listen to me, please, I want you

to know I was happy with you.

You have to believe me, you were everything

to me.

I loved you.

I loved you very much, maybe too much.

But I needed something else.

I didn't know what, because maybe it was

right.

But this need I felt was a curse

that takes you and doesn't leave you anymore.

It chases you, you keep looking for experiences,

emotions.

And men, yes, men too.

I know everything.

I've always known.

How did you know?

There was a man who always followed you

everywhere, whatever he did.

He made me breathe.

Wait, wait, please, but how could you?

Why did you do this to me?

It was just to protect you.

To protect me, and from what?

When I wasn't there, you were like that.

Yes, in short, you were so unpredictable.

You went to wonder in the strangest places.

You could get into some trouble.

There was that man who protected you and

I was calmer.

He told you everything.

Even...

And you didn't say anything.

You didn't blame me.

But why?

I just wanted you to feel free.

Free to decide, free to choose.

I didn't want to lose you.

I knew you loved me and it was

the only thing that mattered to me.

And then you came back.

You came back and that was enough for

me.

I needed you.

Before, at the restaurant.

Why did you want to humiliate me like

that?

Why that violence?

I don't know, I don't even know.

Maybe I had to get rid of that

part of you that was still attached to

me like a disease.

Or maybe I just wanted to take revenge.

You had left me.

Without arms or legs.

But we still love each other.

And now we can start living our lives

together again.

Oh, what's going on?

Are you hurt?

Come here.

Wait.

It's nothing.

Stop, stop, don't move.

Nothing, just a slight sprain.

It's nothing.

Does it hurt a lot?

It's over.

It's really over.

It's been three beautiful years.

Three and a half years.

Three years, six months and two weeks.

Will you

give me a kiss?

No.

No.

No.
