ARMANDO RUELAS MURDERED AT THE POST OFFICE

Workers very mad,
for the death of their leader.

Extra, extra!
Armando Ruelas murdered!

Today they wear white in the streets

for anyone they hand their heart out.

Only because they're twenty!

What times are these, mister Sim�n.

What times these are, mister Sim�n!

In my times the soil...

clear water in the desert...

white rose was your flower.

Today any man would go in that orchard,

despising its great prestige.

To reach what the new one has reached.

Say if not please mister Sim�n.

Say if not please mister Simon.

Searching in her nightgown,

praying to the false gods,

sleeping like a kitty.

Today in bed wasting all

today the widows search for occasion

and they worship them in their cars,

what times are these, mister Simon!

With what right?

NO SMOKING

So what?

You have to obey what the
announcement say.

- All of them?
- All

in reaching the age of...

I am obeying, look over there.

SMOKE A MONTE CARLO

today they spend their lives
between ghouls

that make gossip their profession.

What times are these, Mister Sim�n!

What time are these, Mister Sim�n!

In my times,
woman, don't be amazed,

it was all another way,

and the widows carried their names,

with a lot of honor..

Today they don't respect their names,

LADIES

- This is not for gentlemen.
- Thanks for calling me one.

Even if you aren't,
I've got to call you some way.

Julieta...

Octavio!

Yes, Julieta.

What are you doing here? Hiding.

- What are you saying?
- I'm being pursued, Julieta.

It's been three days a man in black
eyeglasses won't stop following me.

I came into the cinema thinking
I would mislead him, but there he is.

What have you done?

I escaped from being murdered at the post
office like they did to Armando Ruelas.

They murdered Armando Ruelas?

Unbelievable!

You will tell me everything,
but for now let's get out of here.

But how?
The one following me is at the door,

and I must pick some documents tonight
at the post office,

without anyone noticing.

We had a secret comission to achieve.

Ruelas is dead, do you understand?

- Is the one after you a police officer?
- No.

He's one of the gun-men
working for governor Vidal.

SECURITY EXIT

Yes, I have him right here, boss.

And, believe me or not,
in the ladies' bathroom.

What times are these Mister Simon!

In my times the theme of actuality...

was that of the revolution.

Well from the north or south
they all came...

like a seducer, love.

What times are these mister Simon!

SECURITY EXIT

what times are these mister Simon!

Come.

You are the same Octavio,
after all this time.

And you, Julieta.

I am not the same anymore.

Is that because you are now
a married woman?

It's not only that.

Aren't you happy?

No.

You have done everything
you wanted to do in life

when we were students,

you made very fastly,

that which some call,
a political career.

You are famous, feared, pursued...

Can you say you are happy?

I don't say it, Julieta,
but in my own way, I feel happy.

- Why don't you?
- I don't know...

- Ignacio doesn't give you a good life?
- He gives me what he can give.

Is he still working at the
Relations Bureau? - No.

He was fired 3 years ago,
because of a change in the administration.

He wants to go back, go back...
He doesn't want anything but that.

He feels his diplomatic career
is failed, and he barely works.

The eternal problem of a public worker.

I am very sorry.

What are you thinking of?

That 8 years ago, speaking to you and
to Ignacio about our life plans

made me feel happy,

and now, speaking of what we've achieved...
Enter through this ramp.

- Where are we headed?
- I don't know right now.

Wherever I can think about
how to retrieve those documents,

now that they are watching
the post office.

Let's go to my house.

And your little brother?

You won't recognize him.
Juanito is huge.

Look at him.

- Done your homework?
- No.

Say hello to the man. He's my
friend and Ignacio's. - Juanito.

You don't recognize me because you
were very little when I played with you.

I am sorry sir,
but I'm being chased.

You live here?

Yes.

Life is always the same.

Some chase others, which escape,

when they can.

- You start playing, but then...
- Over here.

Ignacio, look who's here?

- Octavio!
- Ignacio!

Give me a hug, old pal.

How soon you are calling me "old".

- You are right, I've grown old.
- Nonsense.

You, in contrast...
Look at him, Julieta.

- I've looked at him.
- He hasn't changed.

In any way.

Stay and have dinner with us...
whatever we have.

- I don't wanna be a nuisance.
- Don't say such nonsense.

I'll leave you alone for a minute.

Sit, Octavio.

If you knew how glad I am to see you...

- What's new?
- Nothing much, working.

I read something from you.

I was very intrigued about your text
on American classics.

Sadly no one cares about those things
nowadays.

Some of us write in the margins
of politics. - Don't say that.

Why not? If it's the truth..

We live in a country where
politics drags everything along,

and in a time where a chauffeur,
earns more than a teacher.

- You say that to me as a scold.
- Maybe.

I will buy bread.

To what do I owe the pleasure
of seeing you here?

Hear these news first.

30 of bisquets and a bread with butter.

20 of bisquets by me.

- There he is.
- Who?

- Didn't you say you were being chased?
- Yes, I know everything.

That man followed me to the chinese
caf�, and it is very likely he comes here.

Hide over here.

You hide too.

Over there.

Good evening.

What can I do for you?

It's an inspection we
are running.

I'm an employee of
"Controlling light and motors".

The time of my visit, I guess, is not
very welcome... - Not welcome at all!

But, precisely,
we were ordered to run the inspection,

at an unusual hour
Do you understand?

- Do you only have that lightbulb?
- Yes.

Excuse me.

- No lightbulb here?
- No.

- Kitchen over here?
- Yes.

- Not a lightbulb here either?
- No.

- In the attic?
- No!

There isn't one.

I'm sorry, but I will need for you
to tell me who you are.

- You might say I'm untrust but...
- You are right to do so.

If I didn't give you my ID at the
entrance, it was out of distraction.

I do this every day,
and no one has asked for my ID.

Sometimes I'm even bothered thinking
everyone reads in my face

that I'm a light inspector.

But,

if you want to see it...

No, that's all right.

So you can calm down.

Over here, the bedroom?

Yes.

- Is there a light in the bathroom?
- No, sir.

- Your name, gentleman?
- Ignacio Elizalde.

- The writer?
- Yes.

My woman tells me your last novel
is quite entertaining.

I shall tell her I met you,
personally.

Don't mind me if I observe you,
it's so I can describe better.

I'm sure she pictures you
very differently.

You know how women are.

They mistake novelists
for the characters in their novels.

They're never content with reality.

Have a pleasant evening, Mr. Elizalde.

Perfect spy.

Say!

He's hiding in the attic of
N� 12,

in the neighborhod of
Callej�n de Flores.

Only one in the street,
on the corner of a chinese caf�.

What about the documents?
Has he picked them up?

Go with Barrios to the post office,
and watch out.

Good, boss.

This time a kidnapping will be better.

Another death would make much noise
and we would compromise the general.

Only if he wants to escape
then there is no other choice...

you clear him out.

They want to kill you
like they did Ruelas.

And yet I have to go to the
post office to retrieve the documents.

The bread and hunger of thousands
of workers, depend on those.

And could we know why?

You can know it.
You are trustworthy.

How do you know I still am?

- It's been so long...
- I am not mistaken, Ignacio.

I could not be mistaken.

We were school partners
for many years, the three of us.

And never, under any circumstance,

did you betray me
nor did I betray you.

However,
it was I who married Julieta,

and you felt betrayed.

I don't know why.

You were telling me about the documents..

What are they?

Nothing less than the irrefutable proof
against governor Vidal,

about the selling of our strike
to a foreign enterprise.

And it is not about a single case
of local politics,

but about a case
of national trascendence.

Do you understand what it means,
right now,

that someone sold the strike
to a foreign enterprise?

Yes, I understand.

The envelope contains orders
of what I must do with the documents.

Of what I must do tomorrow morning
when I take the south train.

Do you understand the urgency?

- I will fetch the documents.
- What are you saying, Julieta?

You? Why would you?

Because if Octavio goes they
will murder him.

The spies don't know me.

They don't know you either, but since...
Stop, Julieta!

I will get the envelope.

On my way to the journal,
I will fetch it.

Are we having dinner?

Not yet. I'll let you know.

Do your homework, Juanito.

Yes.

I don't like you
leaving it for the last minute.

You don't have to go.

Even if you wouldn't raise suspicions,
I can't mix you in all this.

Give me the key.

What's the number - 1540.

Ignacio...

What do I say to the landlord
when he comes for the money?

You know I don't have any money.

This makes four debts. If you could
pay one, or give him some money...

Nothing.
I don't have, I can't, I don't want to!

All right, Ignacio,
don't get mad.

Maybe don Santos sold our radio,

or wants to give us some money.

Do whatever you want!

He just picked up the documents.

Follow him.

I'll go back to the alley and
see what's up.

In an hour, speak to the
boss' office.

- How's it going, mate?
- How's it going?

Are you going to the journal office?

Yes, I will leave my article for tomorrow.
So will I.

Man, what do you think about
the Armando Ruelas murder?

- Would you do me a favour, mate?
- Tell me.

Give my article
to editor L�pez Chavez.

Not coming?

I will go later, I have to go home.

That's not the way home.

Yes, but I have to go see
someone first.

Then I'll see you, mate It was
good greeting you. - Same.

- Good evening, madame. - Good evening.
- Do you have some money?

Octavio, I won't be long.

Come with me, please.

- Thank you.
- Good night.

Why don't you go back through
the attic, Julieta?

I don't want to make you climb,
Santos.

Any way I have to climb for the
storage room. - Well if you say so..

- Good night, don Santos.
- I'll walk you, Julieta.

Julieta.

What's the matter?

Where is he?

Who?

You know who we're looking for,
don't play the fool.

Who is with you?

I am alone with my brother.

Look for him.

230...

5...

Don't be scared, I'm a
police officer.

What do you want?

I am looking for a man
hidden here at your home.

- At my home?
- You haven't seen him?

3125...

- Not here.
- Not here either.

- How about that door?
- It's closed from the inside.

In the attic perhaps.

What about that door?

- Thats the other house's.
- Open it!

Open it yourself like you
did with my door.

- Where does it take?
- To the bazaar.

One moment.

- Are you saying you're alone with the boy?
- Yes. - There are three cups here.

So what? - The one we're looking for
was about to have dinner with you.

If you don't want any trouble,
tell us where he is.

- The one who was about to have dinner?
- Yes, where is he?

Handing his article
to the journal editor.

What are you saying?

Is it so strange that my husband
work in a journal,

writes an article and goes hand it?

Who is your husband?

Ignacio Elizalde.

And who are you?

What's up?

I am sure I saw him
escape through one of the attics.

Then he must not be far, boss.

Maybe he wants to get to the
post office.

Get out of my house
or I will call the police!

You, madame...

be careful.

Follow me!

I agree with Santos, stay here.

- They could come back at any moment and..
- Do you think Ignacio will take long?

I wouldn't know, maybe not.

I'll be right back.
I think I didn't lock the house.

Sorry.

What are you doing here?

I am the inspector
who was here an hour ago.

I forgot my bisquets.

Not the way to enter a house.

I called 3 times, waited for a while,

and when I saw the door was open,
I went for it.

You lie, it wasn't open.

Don't get angry, madame,
I only came to fetch my bisquets.

I didn't want to get home
without them.

It would have been the first time
I had forgotten them,

and if you knew how much my
wife likes them... - Take them.

Is your husband in?

No...

Why?

I wanted to tell him not to worry

I know he has nothing to do

with all that happened here a
while ago.

But you have,
and you've seen too much.

Julieta, bring a blanket.

Please, even if it seems like a lie,
I don't have anything to do with it.

I am just an employee and governor
Vidal promised to aid me.

Three days ago, by orders of Vidal,
some guys came to my house.

Please understand.

They needed someone to follow
you and the other guy

who they murdered,
but I assured you I didn't know.

Don't hurt me, let me go.

I beg you, I won't say a word.

Understand me,
they made me follow you,

in exchange of a good recommendation
from the governor.

If you don't let me go, I'll scream!

- And what will you do now?
- Wait for Ignacio.

Then, I'll see.

I will bring Juanito his meal.

Don't speak, Octavio.

You're back.

We're back together
the three of us, like before.

Not like before.

Like when we studied,
when we fought or when we were silent,

at school, in the library,
the cafe, the streets...

You knew what you wanted,
what you looked for in life.

Ignacio was, and did, whatever
we wanted him to be or do.

- Ignacio was sweet and soft then.
- He still is.

- Has he fetched the letter?
- True.

- He did despite...
- Finish.

Despite having jealousy.

Do you want me to confess something to you?
Say.

That maybe in that time we now
summon,

I was, without noticing,
more in love with you than Ignacio.

Without knowing...

And only when Ignacio announced
he was going to marry you,

I understood how much I wanted you.

It was during the strike.
Remember?

Of course I remember, it was the strike
in which I took part.

They killed Roberto then.

Roberto was, without a doubt,
the smartest one.

He would have been such a great man.

But you are too, Octavio.
You are what you dreamed of being,

a leader, a man who conducts men
and ideas.

Yesterday you fought for the
independence of the university,

now for the workers justice.

You are what you dreamed of, you are you.

You live, you are interested, you are
anguished to reach your ambitions,

to reach what you love.

Now you risk your life
for your idea of justice,

- and if I help you...
- and if you help me?

Is to convince myself, that I
am not dead.

That I also live for something,

for someone, do you understand?

I knew nothing about this whole situation.

Everything has revealed to me now.

The alley, the house,

the furniture at the bar,
the debts...

And more things you will soon discover,

- if you stay for another two hours.
- Two hours!

What are we thinking of!?
It's 10 and Ignacio hasn't come back.

- He will come back.
- But that envelope

is too important
to be waited for.

Could something have happened to him?

No.

I must go to the post office.

Didn't you give him the key?

You're right,

there is no other choice but waiting.

I don't know what I was thinking.

Forgive me.

How would I leave you alone
with that one?

I do have to leave you for a moment.

It's 10...

and I have to dress up and leave.

- At 10?
- Yes, I have an appointment, you know?

I don't understand, Julieta.
Where are you going?

Don't ask me, I beg you.

Try and read something
There are Ignacio's books over there.

Is there a phone nearby?

Crossing the street, by the
chinese caf�.

Could you stay here for a while?
I have to call the comitee.

- Yes, but don't be long.
- Here's the gun.

Where did you leave my hat?

Over there.

If you move, I'll shoot you.

No.

You wouldn't shoot me
in cold blood.

You are incapable of killing an insect.

But not incapable of killing a
worthless being like you.

You better give me that gun.

Give it to me, or I'll kill you.

He's dead.

But you did not kill him.

He was worthless, a snitch.

Because of him they murdered Ruelas.

Could someone have heard?

I will go and check.

You, Juanito, better go to sleep.

Walk him, Julieta.

Which one do you want, boss?

Whatever you want.

Did someone hear?

No one.

Now the important thing is
to get rid of this.

It will be very hard to take him out
through the patio.

Is Don Santos a true friend?

- One which you can trust?
- Yes.

- Why?
- He could help us if he wanted to.

What are you thinking?

You'll see.
I will make a phonecall.

- I'll wait for you downstairs.
- Okay partner, it shall be ready.

- And you were heading to a party.
- Not to a party. - You said that.

I was going to a cabaret, which
is not the same. - It's the same.

It is when you go and entertain
yourself,

not when you entertain others...

as a job.

- �You don't mean...?
- I did not want to say it, but I did.

I work the nights at a cabaret.

Impossible, Julieta.

I can't believe you turned into
one of those women...

"Happy ones".

Yes, Octavio,

even if you find it impossible...

and actually it sometimes
seems impossible to me too.

But when you don't have the guts
to go out and bum for money,

misery brings hunger one day.

One morning they came from school
and told me Juanito had fainted.

Teachers explained he was
playing happily,

when suddenly he went pale,
and fainted.

They didn't know what he had.

But I knew: Hunger.

After examining him,
the doctor told me as well:

"What this boy has is hunger".

Hunger...

Blood came up to my head.

When I arrived home I started
crying and couldn't content myself.

For a month I could never
find a decent job

and there are things like hunger...

which do not wait.

It's past 11. I have to go.

It's about to end, shall we take it down?

Yes, the truck shall be here soon.

Wait a moment, I will walk you.

No, you have to wait for Ignacio.

If he's not here by 12,
go look for me at "Tabu".

Then I shall tell you,
where he goes at these hours.

Here I am now, boss.

- Is there a guard?
- Some times.

Start the engine.

You watch over.

- Here comes the cop.
- What do we do? - Nothing.

As if nothing had happened.
As if you were furniture.

You Julieta, hide yourself.

I will take care of him.

What is it, don Santos?
Shipping merch at these hours?

You know it's forbidden
after ten.

That's exactly what I was telling
the deputy here.

But this morning he saw a clock
he really liked.

He left the money
and wanted to take it right now.

Good evening, friend.

Pleasant evening. Good luck,
mister deputy.

Come closer so I can
take out the package.

It must be very beautiful,
Don Santos.

- You should close now, eh?
- Good evening, Santos.

- Aren't you forgetting the address?
- No, boss.

Consulate river. It's easy.

Couldn't you miss the
cabaret for today?

- No.
- You are served, Julieta.

And it would be better for you
to come out through your house.

I can't thank you enough,
don Santos.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

BAR CABARET TAB�
TODAY: ANA MAR�A GONZALEZ

Tell me more.

What happened after that?

They took the box
to throw it away somewhere.

I think the consulate river.

You are in love with that man.

Me?

It's easy to tell.

No, Memo. If I tell you all this

it's because I had to tell it
to a good friend like you.

Go home,

you must be torn.

I will cover you tonight.

Thanks, Memo,
but I couldn't be there.

Hey,

And why doesn't he go and pick up
the letter at Ignacio's other house?

Only in the worst case.

I don't want him to know...

that.

- I don't know why, but I don't want..
- I do know why.

Have another cognac
to get better, you need it.

Let's see.

Lu�s, another cognac for Julieta.

What is it, sister?
I see you thinking.

- Nothing.
- Give me a cig.

You know, Julieta

I was going to tell you that
our friends are coming tonight.

They want us to go out with them.

We'll go: Goya, Esperanza,
Chelo, me and Blanca.

One of the boys
wants specifically you.

What do you say?

Thanks Gloria, but you know that
outside of here I don't see anyone.

That's because you're dumb.

With all those boys after you,
you could be reach by now.

What is it you want?

I can't be someone else.

Goya is right.

Excuse me, sister.

There they are.

I'll see you, eh?

I can't wait any longer Julieta,
I need that.

Take me to where Ignacio is, or tell me.
Wait a minute. Sit.

I'll see if I can get out.

Have something.

A beer.

Come dance.

Understand Julieta,
I have to find Ignacio urgently.

Think of me a bit.

A bit?

I wish I didn't think so much.

Julieta...

What?

In a few hours
I've seen you proud,

harmless, brave, sad,

anyone would say there is in you
many different women,

and yet...

And yet?

Through all of them,
I've seen the same woman,

the one I met in school.
The one I loved since those times.

Why do you speak of the past?

But it is not past, Julieta.

All this time I never knew what I was
looking for when it came to women.

And now?

Now... I know.

Men don't do but to pursue,
through all the women in our lives,

the first woman we loved...

that which we didn't have.

Every night,

a new love.

Different dawn,

different eye.

Every night,

a new love,

but deep inside me,

only your love

is left.

I tell you in secret,

I love you truly.

I follow your every step,

at your expense.

I feel yours even if you

get away from me.

Nothing and nobody

will make me forget you.

Hey.

I tell you in secret,

I love you truly.

I follow your every step,

at your expense.

I feel yourse even if you

get away from me.

Nobody and nothing,

will make my heart

forget you.

Will make my heart

forget you.

I will go get my coat,
to show you where Ignacio is.

Wait for me.

Get away from me.

Nobody and nothing

will make me forget you.

I feel yours even if you,

get away from me.

Nothing and nobody

will make my heart

forget you.

Will make my heart...

- I'm here now.
- Please Julieta, sit for a while.

Not here!

Come.

It's not right for you to
come with me.

I feel there is something about
this that makes you sick,

and that you don't want to go
to where Ignacio is.

Just tell me where he is,
and I'll go.

In his lover's house.

I will go there alone.

You must not go.

You don't understand Octavio.

All this makes me sick,

but for a long time I've been
searching for

a motif,

to go once and for all to that house,
and retrieve Ignacio.

And now that I have such motif,
I won't leave it.

- Do you know her?
- No.

- She knows you?
- Yes.

Ignacio told me,
on the one day we spoke about this...

the day I found out he was cheating
on me.

That day he said to me
that if he had another woman,

it was for a reason
I would not understand.

That created a doubt within me,
and I want to solve it.

I want to know if Ignacio
can still be the same,

or if he's tied to something...

I cannot provide him with.

A son?

A son that I lost because of
this misery.

A son...

I will never be able to have again.

Each word you've said has revealed me
all these hidden things,

and amongst them...

I can see you are in love
with Ignacio.

No.

You are very willing
to retrieve him from that woman.

Out of an impulse that has nothing
to do with love.

Maybe out of tenderness.

We've walked along life like two
blind persons holding on to each other.

I want Ignacio to feel
that he's not completely alone.

Now more than ever, Julieta,

you know I could love you
with a passion yet unknown,

- new for me.
- Stop, Octavio, I beg you.

- Let me say it...
- No! I'm leaving.

Wait for me here.

I'm going out a minute, Memo.

Alright.

Mina 601.

Only your love

is left.

Hey, I tell you in secret...

What do you want!?

- To see Ignacio.
- Ignacio who?

My husband.

It's very important.

Yes man, those documents are now
much more important than you and I.

I tell you I don't know what you're
talking about.

- Isn't "Mina 601" here?
- Yes.

I couldn't be mistaken.

Mending one of Ignacio's shirts
I encountered a recepit on your name.

I thought he had payed our rent,
but it said "Mina 601"...

then I understood.

I don't know why but I'v never
been able to forget that number,

nor that street.

But you are not here to retrieve
the documents,

- you are here to meet me.
- And to meet Ignacio's son.

I can't deny it.

Ignacio's son, huh?

He wished!

- That I gave him a son unlike you..
- Shut up!

How well it would go for me
when he abandoned me like you,

having to work
to keep a baby alive,

all fat and ugly, No!

- I was not born for such!
- Alright.

I can't.

I don't want to know!
I don't want to hear anythig else!

Tell Ignacio, that Octavio
is waiting for him at the Tabu.

If that's all...

Ignacio is saved.

You saw that a look
and manners...

how low.

What do I care about those documents.

Excuses to come and surprise you.

You are to blame for intruding in
what doesn't concern you!

What are you going to do?

Follow her? Not that!

You won't leave me like that...

Ignacio!

You can't leave me like..

Yes, I followed her.

Here, at the Tabu.

He's one of the dancers.

No, boss, Not a sound.
Left it at the post office.

It's okay. Yes.

Keep dancing and pretend,

but the one who just arrived,

is governor Vidal himself.

You shouldn't have bothered in
coming here, my general.

A little dance will do me no harm.

Good evening.
What can I serve you, general?

Real cognac, not the one you make
with aguardiente and Guchila.

- Mister, general...
- I know my story.

They have you fenced.
We have to do something..

Don't be nervous,
I don't have the documents yet.

But Ignacio will bring them,
any moment now.

Tell that girl...

the one in black, to come here.

While I entertain her,

provoke him, throw him out,

and retrieve the envelope.

Who is with Julieta?

Governor Vidal and his gunmen,
who got me fenced.

I can't remain in this place
another minute, I feel like drowning.

Tell me please what I must do with
this envelope that is burning my skin.

Hand it to me.

Like that?

In public?

Like that.

Thanks, Ignacio.

Don't think I did this
because of you or Julieta,

I did it for myself.

Julieta,

you,

that woman and I are finished.

I am capable of everything.

Even of coming to this horrid place,

where Julieta should have never
placed a foot in.

What are you saying, Ignacio?

If Julieta came here,
who is to blame?

You and no one else but you!

You forced her to come
with your abandon,

and did you even stop her from
coming back?

It's true, Octavio, but...

Don't say it.

Everything has opened my eyes
tonight.

Your arrival,

Julieta's presence in that house...

Now I realize,
the joy I had in my hands,

which I didn't seize.

- Farewell.
- Ignacio.

What?

Forgive me, old pal.

If I spoke you that way,

it's because I, too, can't stand
the idea of seeing Julieta here.

Serene yourself,

and promise me you won't
do anything stupid when you go out.

No,

don't you worry.

To commit suicide, you must
have no love for yourself.

And that kind of love,
is the only one I haven't lost.

Farewell.

Aluyembere Cau, Aluyembere Ca.

Aluyembere Cau, Aluyembere Ca

I'm looking at you,
Leonor, Leonor,

"e lo quem va" decir,

You can go to sleep calmly,
my general.

I came to dance,

and a little dance won't
do me wrong.

Come here.

- Who are you looking at?
- No one.

Forget your friend, please,
let's dance like we're meant to.

At least I pay generously.

You are right, he doesn't pay.

I'm going to the bathroom.

Better leave, general.

Something will happen,
and it could compromise you.

You are right,

but don't forget,
the workers meeting is tomorrow,

and the election depends
on that envelope.

You only have a few hours left.

Tell the girl,
the change is for her.

Good luck.

What happened?

Ignacio came very excited.

That's why he gave you the
envelope the way he did.

I asked him to do it.

It's gonna cost, Octavio.

And I have to know now what I have to do.
No!

Not here.

You are right.

Wait for me here.

GENTLEMEN

- Let's use this door.
- Force it!

That door won't budge, misters.

The exit is this way.

I am sorry,
but we have to close.

Thank you, Memo.

Julieta.

Yes, Octavio?

Of course.

The boys were sorry to have punched you,
but there was no other choice.

You imagine my amazement
of being here with these documents.

What do you have to do now?

Hand the documents to someone
tomorrow, somewhere

I can't tell even to you.

This is more serious
than we all thought.

That's why they didn't even
hesitate to murder Armando Ruelas.

Go figure,

tomorrow, the opening,
with presence of the President,

and high people of the government,

the opening of the workers convention.

The proof of the strike
being sold, are irrefutable,

and they will make a scandal.

Two governors will fall,
and maybe a minister.

There are police member and many
public workers involved.

We will ask for a radical change
in our government.

Public opinion, as excited
as it is for all this matter,

will now be, openly,
supporting us.

And these two tickets?

One was for Ruelas,
the other for me.

Today at 8 I have to meet some
partners at the station.

At 8?

Yes, in the south train.

It's five.

You have.. three hours left.

Stay here, the station is
quite close.

We have to say goodbye.

You can't go out now.

They're still watching.

I can't go out, Octavio.

Why don't you understand
that I can't stay either?

They can harm you.

More harm than the one
you've inflicted?

What do you mean?

Until a few hours, at the moment
I ran into you at the cinema,

I was, like so many others,
a miserable woman

trying to forget how
sad my life is.

But you came Octavio,

you came...

and close to you,
I felt again...

No, Octavio, no.

We must not let this night
take us into its' vertigo.

If I became yours here,
in this hotel room,

we would end up sad.

It wouldn't just be lying to Ignacio
and Juanito, but to ourselves,

to our love,

to our memories.

You know,

You feel just as I do,
that we must wait.

I am so tired.

If I could rest.

Rest.

Have some sleep.

It's daytime.

How I have waited for that light.

Me too.

I haven't slept waiting for it,

as the inevitable sign of our union.

It's curious.

There was a moment when
watching the light arrive,

when I feel asleep and I saw myself..

You know how?

How?

Walking by your side
on the aisle of a station.

There was a train.

None of us would talk.

We stopped to wait
for the moment of departure.

I felt a great joy,
seeing myself there with you.

In front of a train that was going
to take us and unite us for ever.

All of a sudden the bell rang,

and for a moment
I lost notice of everything.

I became stunned.

I only felt something as if
very far away.

You kissing me,

and going on the train without me,
as if we had agreed on it.

And I didn't make an effort
to go with you.

Then I came back to reality

and you were gone.

I only saw run past me, the lit,
little windows of that old train.

That was taking you very fast,

as if in an endless fugue.

It was then when I opened my eyes,

and I saw through that window,
the first light of dawn.

Only now reality will be different.

There will be a station,

and a train that will take us,
and unite us, in a few hours.

But there will be no bell to
separate us, like in your dream.

- Tell me you will never regret it.
- Never.

What time is it?

We have little time left.

I have to go home and
explain to Ignacio.

Say goodbye to Juanito...

and change my clothes.

Don't forget the train leaves at 8.

It seems you doubt my decision.

I couldn't bear to lose you twice.

I'm leaving.

Wait.

Don't do this, Octavio,
don't doubt.

It is you, not me, who has
the responsability now.

You knw that without these documents

I will have no choice
but to see the train go,

and lose everything.

I will be there.

Ignacio...

wake up.

I came to tell you something.

Something I shall tell you myself.

Do you hear me?

Ignacio?

Where are you going?

Nowhere.

Then why did you bring down the bag?

Come closer.

Look at me.

I can't tell you where I'm headed,
but I have to leave.

If you don't understand now, some day
you will, and you will say I was right.

I'm going to change my life,

we shall separate.

But we have never separated.

You are right,

but now it is necessary.

For some days, some months.

Then you shall come and meet me,

and we will never separate from
each other again.

Get dressed, Juanito,

I don't want you to be
late for school.

I will dress and prepare
your breakfast.

Julieta,

when you come and look for me
to tell me you're leaving my side,

I don't want you to find me.

I don't want you to be
the one to ask me for freedom,

I want to be the one who gives it.

I have walked all night,
like a desperate feeling I've lost you.

Thinking I'm alone now,

and I wish I could hold you,

but I also know that because of me,
we have been very unhappy.

Now words and explanations are useless.

I wish you find the happiness,
I could not...

give you.

Ignacio.

Leave me Juanito.

I can't wait any longer.

Farewell, Juanito.

No, Juanito, no.

Think of it as a vacation outside.

That you can't come because of school.

Be good to Ignacio.

He loves you like a son.

- Juanito, you have to help me.
- Why?

Don't ask me anything.
There is no time.

You will do as I say.

When some men, which are on their
way here, enter the house,

you tell them you're headed
to school.

You take the first bus
headed to the station,

look for the "South Train", in it you'll
find the man who was here yesterday.

You hand him this envelope
I just gave you - Yes.

Don't stop for anything,
undertand? Anything.

And now sit.

Where can I talk to you
without the kid hearing us?

Here, because I'm going to
school now.

Say?

- Here you have 1000 pesos.
- So?

That's the price
governor Vidal offers

for the documents you have.

- I don't understand a word...
- Let me finish.

Violence disgusts us.

We don't want the police mixed
up in this affair.

That's why we don't use violence even
with that agitator you're protecting.

- What have you done to him?
- Only register him.

Register him from head to toes.

If he has no papers,

and not even the ticket for the
South train,

who but you, who spent the night
with him, could have

those documents?

So you're leaving with him.

You can see we're well informed.

The lady asks for you.

Thanks a lot.

Disp�nseme que la interrumpa,

but as my husband didn't return home
all night...

And what do I have to do?

My husband...

I should have begun there.

That man, Jorge Ruiz,
a light inspector.

Of a height similar to mine,

he wears gold eyeglasses.

Yes.. I understand.

Sorry to bother you,

but since my husband spoke
to me via phone

telling me he was coming here
to make an inspection,

you know, he would call me every
hour so I would know where he was.

And since he didn't speak to me since,

I thought... - Yes lady, the
light inspector was indeed here,

he made his inspection and left.

Then came back a man, with the same
characteristics you give me,

but he was not your husband,
nor a light inspector.

Thanks, madame.

You must understand why
I'm this nervous.

It's the first time he doesn't get home.
A moment.

I will give you news about
your husband

if you do me a little favour.

- Say.
- Register the lady.

Reg�ster her until you find
the papers she hides in her clothes.

Search thoroughly
and don't ask why.

Search, woman, search. And you'll
convince yourself I have nothing.

- But make it quick please.
- Don't be in such a hurry.

Or are you afraid,
the train leaves you?

- And that way we settle it down.
- Yes.

- Did you search well?
- Yes sir.

- In her thighs? - Yes.
- It's very strange.

The boy!

- No one else has left this house?
- No one, boss.

He's got the papers, no doubt!

Come on, let's reach that boy
before he gets to the station.

And my husband?

They didn't tell me anything about him.
You must know.

What do we know, what men do
when they're far from us.

I am sorry I met you,

sorry for leaving you, but I've
only six minutes to reach the train.

I have to see a man, please
It's just here.

Come on man, please.

Go, alright, go.

Juanito.

Remember well, Juanito, didn't
Julieta tell you if she was coming?

I remember perfectly,
she didn't tell me.

You go on, man.

Here, Juanito, so you can buy
yourself a new schoolbag.

I hope you find the happines
I didn't...

give you.

Ignacio.

I would give anything, Julieta,
to know what you're thinking.

Where are you going?

Thinking I'm alone now,
and I wish I could hold you.

I couldn't bear losing you twice.

I'm stopped at the crossing of
two paths:

One of love,

one of duty.

I don't know which one
I should take.

You are crying, Julieta...

Why?

Why didn't you go?

I would have cried more...

if I had left.

Your dawn,

different vision.

Juanito...

What?

I'm thinking you're going
to be late for school again.

But deep inside me,

only your love,

is left.
