All language subtitles for LEnfant.Terrible.2019

Expression of the french culture referred to those that are separated from the well-known common

and moral amongst human beings. Condemned to an existence of solitud within society and the time

frame that they live in, enduring a constant interior suffering caused by their terrenal incrompehension

"Forgetting is an involuntary act. The more you want to leave something behind you,

the more it follows you".

Kobe?

Kobe?

Kobe?

Are you listening to me?

I was resting a bit from you.

It's incredible.

Do you say nothing?

No.

Truth is, I never seen able to understand you...

Marta please come back to me, I can't live without you.

Andrés please leave me alone, I don't want to hear a word from you.

Do you really think you're unique?

The only thing I know is that I'm ahead of some people.

Like you, by the way.

So...

what we did doesn't mean anything to you?

You were in need too. And sex is just sex, so don't fuck with me, okay...

If I do it, it's because I'm the one that's always trying to
amend things. Don't you understand?

I still feel something...

If you are not with me you won't be with anybody else.

Gooooood... It's exhausting to be with you.

I think we should stay as friends.

I can't be only your friend.

I was just being polite, I have no intention of being your friend.

I'm sorry for all your suffering, but it's all due to your own delusion.

Andrés please stop it, you're acting as stupid.

-Are you aware of how rude you are?
-Yes.

So aware that I haven't tried to hurt you in your personal feelings.

In fact, science should study me, because I think
I'm the most extraordinary man in the world.

It's easy to be sarcastic...

when the other's the one that has a broken heart.

I'll shot if you leave me.

We've been like this for nine years, and we still haven't fixed anything.

I can't leave you, because I've never had anything with you.

I'll be right back.

Go back home, and stop fucking around an asshole.

Thanks.

It's the sixth time that he does it.

At least there's something you do right.

He's obsessed with her.

If I were like that with you, I'd probably do it as well, but whatever...

I wish you would...

I wish you did...

Carla...

you are a boring person.

You know what a boring person is?

Someone you can get laid with before saying no.

As always, incapable of loving someone with your heart.

I think I have made up my mind about leaving you...

our future...

no matter how much I still love you.

What does it mean to be human?

To be alive?

Every person that we meet along the way has lived a life.

Had a childhood.

We all have a hidden soul, unknown to us, deep within ourselves...

and if we do not let it out, then it is impossible to find our own path.

Let us search, focus, on what is special about each individual.

There is someone out there for everyone of us.

Man is...

a being that is always on transit.

And the way forward...

is different from the way back.

So my advice to you is this:

take your life, your path, and enjoy it.

Complicate it even.

Go through unpleasant situations, from which you can learn.

Improve.

Create.

Our time here is limited.

Let's forget that.

Throw away your humility.

How would I put it?

Thought, direction, action.

Action is just a matter of decision. Feelings are controled by decisions.

And yes, it is a matter of decision.

It is clear, isn't it?

We have time for one more question.

Yes lady?

I would like to ask you about which is the proccess
that you under go to write your books.

You know?

I see humans but not humanity.

We're unable to be good with the others.
It's something intrinsic inside of ourselves.

I'm telling you.

When we have an argument with someone, when we get angry...

We are incapable of love.

It's something innate inside all of us, it's our own nature. Our own idiosyncrasy.

Now...

to finish...

I have to say that, in order to not make a fool of myself...

I would rather not start by playing smart.

We all would love to have your vision, because
we would not shake when letters from the bank arrive.

Ladies and gentleman, Kobe Wheeler!

-Can you sign the book please?
-Name?

Antonia.

Thank you.

-Name?
-Marta.

Thank you.

-Name?
-Can you sign the book? My name is Carmen.

Thank you.

-Name?
-Alejandro.

-Take it.
-Thank you.

-Name?
-Manoli.

Great like always, Kobe. You are raw talent.

You really doubted on him?

I didn't, but I am afraid he messes up everything because of his personality.

-Name?
-Kobe Wheeler, how exciting!

Name?

Oh yes, Esmeralda. I'm a great fan of you and your career.

Would you mind not being so loud? You're giving me a headache.

I'm sorry, it's just that I'm a bit nervous you know.
I'm also writing a book, starting really.

I would love if you could give me advice about the whole process,

so I can write a great book like yours.

If you want, I can give you my number and we can meet up, get to know

each other, and when I'm done I can lend you the book so you can read it.

No.

No?

No.

Why?

For starters, never ask the competition for help, and less to read your work.

Why not?

Because your work will most likely suck, and I hate reading bad literature.

And if you write something good,
I would hate it even more, because I would be envious.

Well... Don't worry sweetheart. He's a little tired and
doesn't know what he's saying.

I'm sure that you will be a great writer.

Come with me.

"To Esmeralda, you got my attention".

"Call me".

-Name?
-Marina.

-Name?
-David.

-Name?
-Miguel.

-Name?
-Angelines.

-Take it.
-Thank you.

Uf... It was close.

How was the conference?

Like always...

people believe they're going to save by theirselves listening to me.

It all comes down to put on a good face, endure the dickhead that's

my agent, and I still haven't been able to get laid with Penélope.

Then tell her that you like her.

I don't like her, I "like her".

Seduction on a woman consists of 50% of lies, or was it a 60?

Truth is I don't know.

What I mean is, when they know you need them, they threaten to leave.

Having so many worries for a women is a sickness.

Women... You can't live with them, nor without them.

I would love to have someone.

So, you're selling it?

Twice the amount.

No shit, I already sold it to you for twice 15 years ago.

When talking them into it, you're the best,
but for business, you're a complete disaster.

You still have my Super 8?

You did not have win any Sundance with it, did you?

I tried, but that camera's been dead ever since you left.

Ey...

why don't buy the cinema?

Me? Buying this again?

Not gonna hapen...

I left this world behind a long time ago.
Besides, I don't know what films are trending now.

Superheroes.

What I'll never understand is why you left the movie world, you were really good.

Having a movie theatre was a dream, making cinema, a nightmare.

Then imagine being a stresed director who just directed his first movie.

What is it about?

I miss my former self.

It's hard reflecting on your own memories and
realise you have a different look, a different smile.

But you know?

Now none of that exists.

Darío, did you ever have the feeling of belonging somewhere else.

An unknow land.

From another place.

I've always felt isolated, separated from those around me.

It's like my house, my temple...

started to burn...

at anytime.

Could you imagine?

That would be the end.

Because sometimes, I think my life is just a fleeting moment...

and the end is close.

I'm dying Kobe.

What?

I'm dying...

The cinema is yours, my gift to you.

A few days from now, a woman will come and
buy it from you for twice the amount.

Darío...

you are not going to die.

Yes I will, and before I go I want to go in peace, come to terms with everything.

Great is the suffering of the dead that leave with pending debts.

Death is not the end.

Darío...

I'm so sorry, I can't...

How is she?

Better.

She had a bad night. It's getting better in terms of...

Will she be discharged from paliative care?

It's still early to know...

But she's in a bad condition.

If you need anything, call me.

My, how tasty you look, eh, sweetheart?

-Listen asshole.
-So pretty, ain't she?

How disgusting.

Put me a coke.

If you had told me this morning that you were going to accept

my invitation, I wouldn't have believed you.

I hate being recognised, but I also hate when I'm not recognised.

You caught my atenttion, you know?

You know, it's not bad being a little more social in public.

Gandhi wouldn't speak to anyone for a week because he was tired of people.

Did it work for him?

Don't know, it's probably a lie.

What I mean is, there are only two practical solutions to life:

either refrain from everything, or just focus on a small circle.

I think we have a very different way of being.

You can't know that on the first date. Well, men do.

Oh really? And women?

Not before the fourteenth, or even fifteenth date.
We only reveal to others what we want them to know.

And how do you know I'm not trying to benefit from this?

Maybe I just want to write my book.

Don't know. But women are determined to get to know me.
And if not, in getting me to know who they are.

I would rather prefer men being a bit slower.

A real men is the one that touches you and fucks you until you're satisfied.

The ones with the flowers and the romantic dinners are just patient perverts.

So you are saying that I'm a frigid.

There are no frigid women, only unexperienced men.

Don't answer it.

Yeah?

Kobe?

Who is it?

Hello, my name is Esperanza. Are you busy right now?

No, no... tell me.

It would be better if I just say it...

Our father is dead, and I'm your stepsister.

What?

I've heard a lot about you, and I'm really sorry that
we are talking under these circunstances.

I would like to meet you.

Eh, yes sure, why not.

All right.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Wait. How will I recognize you?

Don't worry, I will take care of that. Good night.

You left me half way.

Leave.

What?

Leave.

What are you...?

Leave now!!

I always get mixed with little shits. Asshole!!

TRAPPED BY HIS PAST.

What are you doing here?

I was waiting for you.

Where am I?, what am I doing...?

That is a part of a question, finish it.

...here?

You tell me.

Come with me.

Are you alone?

I would noy say alone, just forgotten.

I'm the grey of all forgotten things.

Where are we going?

Remember this?

Yes.

Judging by the state of it, it seems no one has been here in a long time.

Amidst all chaos, the things that remain are deeply moving.

Yes...

You know how to "cry-laugh"?

What?

"Cry-laugh".

Hi.

Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Want to sit down?

Yeah, sure.

I can leave if you prefer, I won't bother you and...

No, no, stay.

So, nobody talked you about me.

No...

I see...

So, how are you? What you do for a living?

Are you really interested, or is it just to break the silence?

Both.

I write self help books for people that feel bad about themselves.

Sounds good.

Turns out...

I was...

I was close to writing a book where I lived before,
but I'm not very good to be honest.

I think, you need to have a strong inner self. I don't know...

what is it that passionates me...

What are you doing here?

If I tell you the truth, I don't really know.

After what happened, and as I didn't know you,
I thought it was the moment to meet you.

I'm really sorry if it bothered you that I made this decision now that...

If I'm being honest, I would rather have it this way.

And you found me...?

-Yes, because of our father.
-Sure.

I know you didn't speak to him, but he talked all time about you.

I haven't known anything about him for the last 17 years.

18.

You look much better than in the photos I found.

And younger.

Thanks.

You are really pretty as well.

-And paler than I expected.
-Really?

You got all the foreign genes from him.

Well, except the eyes.

So...

how much I owe you for the funeral...?

Oh, no, no, don't worry, it's already been paid.

He's buried where he was born, in case you want to go see him.

Not going to see much now that he's dead.

Besides, I've never really been good with english.

Well, I don't want to distract you anymore.

Don't worry, really, it's okay...

I'm going to stay around here for a while, in a hotel that's not too bad.

Just in case you want to hang out another time.

Sure.

All right, then call me whenever you want. Nice to meet you Kobe.

Likewise Esperanza.

Bye.

Bye.

What are you doing here?

I needed to talk to you.

Beer with ham, the cornerstone of every nutritional breakfast.

Jose I want to ask you something.

It's really good to see you Kobe. I hear that you're doing good lately...

Have I a sister?

Kobe, you know very well that...

Do I have a sister?

Look me in the eyes and tell me truth.

Why didn't nobody tell me anything?

Your father didn't want this to affect you.

How many?

25 years.

My mother knew about it?

No.

How did you find out about all of...?

25 years. I can't believe it...

Even if you don't believe it, your father really loved your mother.

But it was impossible for him to keep on with his
life after that tragedy

and went on to find a new one.

Eh, where are you going? Kobe?!, Kobe?!

Damn it!

When you feel bad, trust your loved ones.

-But my brother is silly, he's always mean with me.
-She's the one that's mean with me.

You are brothers, so you must take care of each other.

What if he doesn't stop being mean to me?

In that case, I will have to cut his tongue, so he isn't able to speak anymore.

Noooo!

You know now, huh? Be good.

Very well. You may leave now.

You still fool young children, eh?

Have you been praying your penances?

After all this time, I think I left it on three "Our Father", four "Hail Mary", and two creeds.

I've been sinner, what can I say?

I'll have to start a new one on you.

You might as well start now, because the queue reaches just around the corner.

All right. First penance.

Come and hug this old man.

How glad I am to see you Kobe.

How glad I am to see you.

You remember when you tried to say Mass after locking father Felipe

in his office because he didn't let you drink the wine?

The best part was the slap that he gave me, but considering

I was drunk to the gills, I didn't feel a thing.

Well, I did feel something, the farts that he made
because of the laxative I gave him.

Who could return to those years...

I never thanked you for everything you did for me after that.

What are you worried about, Kobe?

I remember you always told us that there were two ways of seeing life.

See the glass half full of water, or half full of air.

Today...

I saw it empty.

Do you fell despair, inability, or the urgent necesity of escape?

Fear.

Fear like I never felt it before. And you know what?

I'm not ready to go through this again.

-That's impossible. There's nothing that could...
- I have a sister.

Oh God...

Well... A stepsister really.

Since 25 years ago.

-My God... And are you sure that...?
- I met her this morning. She's my father's daughter.

Even if you see it as a tragedy that has knocked on your door,

think that there may still be place for happinnes and...

Don't you understand?!

I'm not capable of having another sister!

If you ever find yourself pressed by pain of melancholia...

Don't isolate yourself and recreate on your pain,
because then there will be no escaping from your suffering.

We live in a cruel world...

and all people that do not leave it in peace...

end up in purgatory, forever lost.

No.

Excuse me.

Excuse me!

What?

Do you have the book "Men without women" by Haruki Murakami?

What?

"Men without women" by Haruki Murakami.

Mizagamichi?

Mu... ra.. ka.. mi!!!

Oh, Murakami, you could have said it from the beginning. Let me look.

Fuck...

Hi!

Hi.

How are you?

Good. Searching for books?

Actually, I'm waiting to see if they have one.

Well, if you are waiting for him to check you'll be here forever.

Which one is it? I might have it.

-"Men without women" by Haru...
-...ki Murakami.

That's it.

I know it, but I don't have it.

So then, what are you doing here?

I have nothing to do at the moment, so I came to see if I find anything entertaining.

I may take this one by Kobe Wheeler, the master of personal motivation.

I don't think you'll need it, you have all that you require.

And truth be told, he's not very good, he's a terrible writer.

Can I tell you a secret? I know the author, and if I take it he will sign it for me.

Oh really? You are incredibly lucky then.

But keep it to yourself, it's a secret and I don't want him to find out.

Your secret is safe with me.

But if he signs it, make sure he writes something special.

Don't worry, I know he will.

I was on my way to eat something, want to come with me?

Yeah sure, why not.

Let's go then.

Did you pay the book?

Just play along with me.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Could you tell me which book's the one up above there?

This?

No, the one that's all the way up, the black one.

Oh that one, wait a second...

Bastards.

Have a good meal.

Thank you.

It's yummy! How is it called?

Ramen. It's a very popular dish in Japan, even though it's origin is chinese.

Why is your name Kobe?

My mother always loved asian culture, so she
and our father travelled a lot to Japan.

They kept visiting many places, like Kobe, where I was born.

So that's where your name comes from.

No.

Truth is, I was born the same day some guy named Kobe
from Los Angeles Lakers scored 81 points.

Do you speak japanese?

Say something.

Nankurunaisa.

Nankuru...taisa?

Nankurunaisa.

Well, what does it mean?

Time fixes everything.

Wow...

I think it's one the prettiest words in the world.

I'm really bad with languages. My English is a bit decent, but only when I sing.

Sing something.

I'm not sure, I feel embarassed.

My ear for music is awful, so even if you do it bad it will sound good to me.

You have a beautiful voice.

Thank you.

Are you tired?

No.

I'm just trying to figure out what that couple is saying.

From so far away?

I'm not sure, but I think that she wants to fix things between them.

Such great hearing!

I've always liked listening to others.

Ears see everything, and better than the eyes.

You can pretend you are happy but the voice never lies.

Listening to someone, enables you to dig in the other's soul.

Oh, really?

How am I feeling, huh?

You are not happy.

But take it easy.

Nankurunaisa, wasn't it?

I try to devoid myself of all my hate and melancholy,
but sometimes I think it's just impossible.

I need some omission...

a neglect...

so that the spirit that's trying to emerge is finally born.

Omission and neglect...

they are the main pillars of certain parts of ourselves.

You have to let the old self die so a new one can be born.

I sometimes believe that this is my destiny.

That there's nothing I can do to change it.

Reality sometimes differs from reality itself.

Come, you are not ready yet.

Yes?

Son of a bitch you left me pregnant. Didn't you use protection?

Who is it?

"Who I'm I" you piece of shit? As it, appears I'm just one of your bitches!

Fuck...

Haven't you ever heard that you need two to dance a tango?

What is it you bloody want?

What I want is for you to fuck off! Next time,
you either wear a condom or you cut your own cock.

We were drunk Carla, I can't even remember...

Everything that you do is fucked up!

-They should lock you up forever for humanity's sake!
-Screw this girl!

You've been hanging out with an asshole. Suit yourself with your believe

of not being necessary to anyone, I wish that your cock falls of...

Drinking again?

It's just 10 AM.

One hour less in Canarias.

That's Kobe, always messing with you.

Remember, there are two kinds of drinkers.

Those who drink because they don't have anything to add to their lives,

and those who drink to forget something...

And you are...?

I can't remember actually.

Come on in.

Here you go.

Thanks, Isa will be really happy.

How are things with her?

Good, we are still knowing each other.

Little by little.

Hey, thanks for your help at the bar the other day,
that guy can't realise that I'm a lesbian.

Can't realise, or doesn't want to realise.

When he discovers that you are a cop, I'm sure he will run away.

What troubles you?

Nothing...

Carla...

she called me this morning saying she was pregnant.

And what are you going to do about it?

I already left her pregnant when she was 15, so tomorrow

I'll go to the doctor, pay her abortion and problem solved. No big deal.

And if that's not what troubles you, what is it then?

I have a sister.

Stepsister really.

And what is the issue?

I guess I didn't expect me having a sister at this moment in life.

How is she?

She is...

pretty, caring, charming, kind, thoughtful...

Quite the opposite of me.

Then go see her again.

When she called me last night...

Would she think about me after hanging up?

If you could hear what people say after they hung up...

then we wouldn't have friends, jobs or partners.

I'm sure she likes you.

No, I think you are wrong.

Women are never wrong, and even if we are, there comes a moment

in the discussion where we surprisingly are right again.

Is doctor Hernandez here?

Doctor Hernandez is not here, but you can wait for her inside if you'd like.

You're welcome...

Kobe, I want talk with you.

She can no longer talk, can she?

No.

She can't listen either.

But you can still read lips as well as ever, eh?

I don't want her to know what we are talking about...

so answer only yes or no.

Is she losing her vital functions?

Yes.

Will she get better?

No.

Is there a cure?

No.

Is she going to die?

Yes.

Don't you worry, I'm going to talk with the doctor for a moment, I'll be right back.

How much?

I'm not sure, maybe a week or two.

In a few days from now we'll take her to surgery.

Are you alright?

Nurse!

Stay still please.

Look and behold, the prodigal son. How are you man?

Hi.

Eeeeh, Kobe, my man!

It's been a long time bro, what brings you here?

I was getting tired of listening to good music and thought
"let's see if Michael can make my ears bleed a little".

Same douchebag as always, eh?

By the way, let me introduce you to Dante, musical producer.

You see, he's a quiet guy, but I can assure he's the best.

I'm gonna change, I'll be right back.

Well Kobe...

How are those books going? I bet you are making a fortune, aren't you?

In fact I am, and despite the times we are living
I'm making myself rich at other people's cost, so...

Cool dude, cool indeed.

And now that you're here...

can I ask you a favour?

Look, Dante needs...

Not long from now I'll bring a great music promise to the city.

He will perform in front 500 people, and we need
someone to accompany us around town and look after him.

Look after him?

I was going to do it, but you know, mastering, mixes... I'm busy.

Here, take my card, even though I'll be the one that will get in touch with you.

What's up with him?

Kobe, I need you to do it, if everything goes well I can make him my partner and...

Fine, fine, count me in.

Thanks bro.

I'm ready.

One question Mike.

You still own that place that lifts the spirit, eh?

You'll see dude, it's going to blow your mind, this place is better that ever.

-Yes?
-Yes.

Hi Robert, how's night going?

Doing good boss, and the night is promising.

Kobe, breath deeply...

and open up your eyes, because you're about to enter to the paradise of love.

Hoooooly shit...

This place has changed quiet a bit, hasn't it?

I decided to invest everything in reforming this place.

And as you can see, the results are good.

Welcome.

Pedro.

Give my buddy here a maracaibo whiskey, doubled and loaded, right?

Triple.

Triple! Shit, that's the atittude!

Thanks.

I'll be rigth back.

Jackie, sweetie! How are you doing?

Listen, I want you to give that man...

Kobe, don't bullshit me, you need to try the house special.

-Now From Russia with love! Jackeline!!!
-She's a beast. She'll make your damn legs tremble.

This one's on the house, alright?

Cheers!

I'll be right back my love.

Shit, what did they put in this?

Oh sorry my fault, I didn't see you.

No no, don't worry, it's my fault, I'm a little wasted.

Sorry again, and have fun.

So... What is your name?

Sol.

Hi Kobe.

I was willing to talking to you.

I couldn't sleep.

There's a japanese saying that states that, when you can't slep,

it's because you are awake in someone else's dream.

I love you.

I love you Kobe.

Please, don't do this.

I'd rather be guilty than regretful.

Why is it you love me?

I'm a cold person, I always lose everyone.

I know how you feel. I've been hurt too.

My former partner confused jealousy with love. I was...

deeply in love, and couldn't see anything.

Look, I believe that we need to go through tough and

complicated times while we are young, so we can learn and grow.

But if you don't get out from there, you'll be trapped in a never ending cycle.

I lost everything: family, friends, job...

It's hard.

Love is a disease that can only be cured with love.
But if the ill doesn't want to be cured...

then he is lost.

Why is it that we always fall in love with the wrong person?

Because we fall in love when we get a little atenttion.

No.

I fell in love with you because you saw me when
I was invisible for everyone else.

Don't be silly Esperanza. I'm sure there are many men after you.

The only reason they are after me is, because they have it easy?

You know how long it's been since a man takes me by the hand?

I need time.

If you give me time I'm going to do the impossible to get you.

Listen, I want you to hug me, undress me and fuck me.

Look at me. Look at me!

If I look at you I'll want to kiss you.

How do you like kisses?

I don't mind. As long as it's you.

I'd like to be able to erase some memories, and relive others again.

Things flow where they need to, and no matter
how hard you try, when the times comes...

We always remember and believe what we want.
You know? I've never lived in the "now".

Many things can happen between never and now.

What's there?

Come, you're not ready to go there yet. Moving forward can cause fear...

I'm tired of your phylosophical nonsense and your endless walks!

Kobe, wait!

Are we at home?

That voice... I haven't heard it since...?!

You can't stop regretting about everything that you left behind.

Where am I?

You already know.

No...

Yes, you do. And you'll remember eventually. This way.

Eh, Kobe?

Yes, it's me.

Darío told me...

I'm Claudia.

I'm so sorry about Darío, I didn't know that...

Oh, don't worry.

Life is just like that.

You mind if we sign and...?

I'm still amazed that you are going to sell the cinema.

This won't be a scam, right?

If I wanted to scam you, I'd have sold you my books.

Kobe... Kobe Wheeler... the writer?

I can't believe that you are selling me the cinema.

I wouldn't think it's because of lack of funds, is it?

No.

Well, what kind of movies do you recommend?

As long as it's not auteur cinema, you can ask
the distributor for anything you like.

Anything in particular?

Path to Redemption, Retour, Disconnected, Scenic Rhapsody...

Classics never fail.

Well then...

Thank you for everything.

Likewise.

Kobe.

If you ever want to come back, this is your house.

Thanks, but you know? I think it's time I leave some "houses" behind.

Uff, how friking hot that bastard is!

She will need to come here in order to assure
it is not a dangerous abortion,

and the sooner the better to avoid...

Yes, yes I get it...

She's very stubborn, but I believe she will agree, just like last time.

Last time?

About 9 years ago.

By the way, how much is it, I hope the price hasn't gone up a lot, huh?

No, no, this time I'm not going to charge you anything. It's free.

Why?

You already know why.

Well no, I don't.

Because...

last time...

there was no abortion.

I thought you knew.

There was no abortion?

When she came 9 years ago, she told me that you had thought better

and that she would not abort, that you would had the baby.

Everything was ready, but at the last minute you moved house

and I did not know how to contact you to return the money you gave me...

and ask about the baby.

I am really sorry that you found out like this.

And as for the current abortion...

I have a child?

I'm not doing as bad as you thought, eh?

Yeah.

And don't you think that love between two
individuals is like this wide and crystalline ocean?

Yeah.

Or we can go home to fuck, and then sell your
organs at the black market to see what I can get, right?

Yeah.

Kobe!

As much as you have going on in your head,
you could try to pay some atenttion to me!

I'm sorry Esperanza, but I'm a bit worried.

What's the matter?

I have a child.

When you are a given a gift that you don't want,
we talk about loves that kill, right?

A part of me wants to see that child, but...

I'm not sure.

I'll get the door.

Who are you?

Hi, I'm Espe...

His new fuckbuddy, aint' it?

No, I'm not his "fuck" anything.

I don't care who you are. Come on in sweetheart.

What a pretty lady! What's your name darling?

Lucia.

Beautiful name.

How you even dare to call me after what happened the other day!

And you are no one to lecture me about what I did nine...!

Kobe?

Her name is Lucia.

Luc...? Lucia.

You have her eyes.

Lucia, you want me to show a thing that you're going to love?

Want to eat something?

Come on.

Show me.

You know how to do it?

That's it, Daisy.

I wasn't capable of doing it Kobe.

I've been hiding it for nine years, and for what?

For a long time she wanted to meet you, but...

I forbid her.

I didn't want her to meet you.

Didn't want her to hurt you.

I myself...

wanted to hurt you.

But I loved you enough to refrain from doing it.

Using honests feelings to do dishonest things.

One of your many talents.

And what did you expect Kobe?!

You waved at me smiling with your eyes, like you were letting me

know you had fullfilled my desires and fantasies.

But your absurd behaviour...

I've been templed to mock you, laugh at your face.

Because you refused my love without any compassion.

What's better,

to deceive and suffer,

or never to be deceived?

Indiference is better than a stated refusal...

but it's greater suffering.

Blessed are those who believe that teenage love will remain forever.

Look...

Don't worry about her, I'll make sure she won't ever be in need.

And if you like, we can wait to...

I'm tired of waiting Kobe!

I'm always supossed to wait for you to decide something.

It's the only thing that we all do with you.

We pass through the road that is your life,
but it's one way only, and always without you!

But no more.

I have tried the impossible for too long.

Say goodbye, because you will never see us again.

Get a hold of yourself, and be careful because you are carrying a child.

Are you ok?

Yeah... just a ghost from the past.

The past?

From 25 years ago.

That's the thing about women.

When you do something funny we fall in love,
and next minute we don't know where the hell we are.

So then, with some girls, you never happen to realise what's going on, right?

I must admitt that the bad thing about me is that sometimes

you don't know if I'm in love, crazy, or posessed by the devil.

What happened 25 years ago?

When I was a child, I had a twin sister.

She was just like my daughter.

I'll never forget that look.

Tell me about her.

We were really close, like two peas in a pod.

She was good, kind and loving.

I was the black sheep.

I have no doubt about it.

I used to live with hate and resentment.

She was an angel.

She was called Lucia too.

I love her.

She was the most important person in my life.

But I was incapable of loving.

We had a fight, and I didn't want to see her again.

And I was in love with her.

I left home.

And on that same day...

our house began to burn.

She was inside, and you know?

I didn't do a thing to save her.

I screamed and screamed...

but none of that worked.

As I did nothing,

she died.

I remember her last words.

"Are we at home?"

And in that moment, I realised who I was.

Because of that suffering...

I'm incapable of loving. I don't want to lose anyone.

Because the pain never fades away.

And you must live with it.

Why are you crying?

Because you aren't.

I cried and cried the way it hurts the most, with my soul.

With no tears.

Do you have any pictures of her?

No.

The only thing I kept is a drawing.

She loved to draw.

So pretty, she looks like you!

Are you this one?!

They called me "L'Enfant Terrible".

Like my great-grandfather.

You knew him?

No.

The only thing I know is that he fled to France during the civil war.

Apparently he went into hiding in a devastated land... full of bunkers.

I know nothing of him.

It seems that he was a revolutionary in his own way,
and I've only heard bad lates about him.

He was an "Enfant Terrible" till his death with 35 years.

A cardiac problem killed him.

35? It can't be that he had your age.

Yeah.

He had the Werner syndrome.

To put it this way, it's when a younger person looks older.

Then, if you are older, and look younger...

you have the Kobe syndrome, right?

I'm going to grab some coffee, want anything?

I don't know why I wear makeup or heels
if the sexiest thing I have is your clothes.

You're even sexier without clothes.

I'll leave you alone.

We are playing, want to join?

Playing what?

Painter and model. I paint and he stays still.

No, no, no. I've never been good for obeying. I'd rather watch.

When I'll be able to see the sea from a boat?

You've always had the impatience of the bad beginners.

Imagine now that she can't leave this place.

Shut up. You think about her?

Yes.

You hate her?

No.

Why did you leave her?

She gave me love, but...

it was an impossible love, a relationship that had no future.

But you are here because of her.

Shut up.

You know?

It was impossible for us to be together.

I'm just a nobody that goes wherever the wind is blowing.

Same thing happened to me with her.

Shut up Kobe. And are you going back with her?

There, it's done.

Hey, it's been a long time since we "cry-laugh", right?

She will go into surgery soon. If you want to say goodbye...

Thank you.

Kobe, when you can, I would like to have a word with you.

Thank you.

About you mother...

If she doesn't make it I already know what to do.

Don't worry.

Anything else?

Yes, but I don't know how to say it.

You are dying.

No...

No, that can't be.

Your blood tests confirm that you have a cardiac insufficiency diease.

It is a progressive deterioriation of the heart.

Haven't you had severe chest pains during all this time?

But...

can I live a normal life or...?

Most of the times, yes.

The problem arrives when the disease reaches a threshold

where it can no longer be treated.

It normally occurs when the heart has sufered a lot.

To be honest, it is very rare for it to manifest on someone as young as you.

But it sometimes can happen.

Ho... ho... how, how...

25 years since it appears.

He's very good, eh?

Yes.

They say that music is a reflection of the soul.

Music has the power to rekindle old memories.

Power to make us remember our past...

Everything.

By the way, I'm going to introduce myself.

No, no, no. Let me do the talking. He can be difficult sometimes.

What the fuck happened to your face?

I have an existential crisis.

That's normal, we all are constantly in crisis.

It's nothing more than an atemmpt to try to go back
being who we once were, and to get what we deserve.

Everyone is in crisis on a day to day basis.

You know?

We always tend to obsess ourselves with the wrong people.

Look, I'm sorry that you have reached that unexplained social limit

that forces you to do an effort in order to keep going.

But if you aren't going to do that,
then shut the fuck up for a second and let me listen.

Oh, shit.

"The three years soul lasts until the hundreds".

Oh, damn. Fuck!

Help me lift him up.

What?

He performs in two hours and he has such an overdose that

he won't even be able to perform in playback. So let's lift him up and help me to get him out of here.

Shit, he's a heavy bastard.

What are you doing?

Oh shit, come on!

What are we doing now?

Let me do the talking.

Evening.

Evening.

Why are you wearing sunglasses?

I did not realise I was wearing them, that explains the excessive darkness.

And why were you surpassing the speed limit?

You see, our friend here feels quite ill,

so we were taking him to the hospital. Sorry for the velocity.

Is he ok?

Yes. Thank you for your concern.

I will have to take your statement. Get out of the car.

Oh, come on officer, I had a bad day.

I have to take your statement, get out of the car!

I will not repeat it, get out of the bloody car!!

Well then... How's this gonna end, huh?

-Same as always. Same as always!
-As always?

You were... You were always the same because of women.

-Eh, you crazy fuckers, leave me alone.
-Leave me be. Leave me be.

Screw you and...

Calm yourself Pepe, calm yourself, it's over...

- I'll kill him, I'll fucking kill him...
- Do you have a cigar? Are you kidding me?

I don't smoke.

All because of that bitch!!

Calm, calm.

That bitch was yours!!

-You were the one that had to set things right!
-What?!, what?!

It's over Pepe.

You shut the fuck up, motherfucker!!!

Do you have a cigar? Because I need to smoke and I'm pretty nervous.

Shut the fuck up already!!!

-Shut up!
-Eat my dick...

You are free, your bail's been posted.

Do you have a cigar?

Fuck it.

There are 4 beds left, one for each of you.

What have you done?

As you can see, he does not want to talk.

We tried everything, but it is impossible.

He went silent.

Are you insane?!

Why the fuck did you start shooting?!

Kobe, I can see things went wrong, but I do not know why.

We can not help you if you do not tell us.

I need to know what is happening.

This is impossible.

Kobe, we're about to close a deal with Penelope
and her firm that can make us rich.

Don't screw this up please.

Say something for fuck's sake!

Fuck you.

Look Kobe...

I need some guarantee that, if I release you,
you will not come back around here.

I know that look.

A way of begging for help by letting out what afraids us.

If we all could learn again how to talk the way

our suffering induces us, we would be surprised to see just...

how close we are to one another, hearing us without fear.

Don't you think?

I'm really sorry about what happened, and excuse us for any trouble.

And you better go see Penelope asap! She can't wait to see you.

So don't lose your fucking chance to sign that deal.

Hey, hey, what's going on?

You're insane, you freaking asshole!

Kobe, what on earth were you thinking to try and kill yourself, are you crazy?

I know that you're being haunted by memories and you don't know what to do, but,

have you never been able to forgive yourself and move forward?

You manifest your pain in such an horrible way.

Marta, I need you to do something for me.

Sure, whatever you may need.

I can't do that.

I'm not capable.

Please.

Asshole.

Kobe.

Thank God you're ok, you had me worried.

Does it hurt much?

I'm sorry!

Sit down.

Do you want something to drink?

Maracaibo whiskey, thanks.

You're very kind.

Someone has to in this times.

You see Kobe, I'm going to be honest with you.

Your books are a success, they're on their way to become bestsellers.

You're really good, and also atractive and charming to women,

so we can't waste that potential.

With the current number of sales and the next books that you write...

Kobe?, Kobe are you ok?

I want to fuck you.

Oh yeah? Then what are you waiting for?

Kobe?

Kobeeeeee?

My God, you lose yourself so quickly.

What were you thinking?

Well, as I was telling you...

It will be better if you leave, yeah, yeah it will be the best.

I'll speak with Bernabe about the contract...

Kobe, I think you got it wrong.

Stop please.

Stop!

Stop.

I said stop!

Look Penelope, I know that you like me. So, let's talk about us...

There's nothing to be talked about! Get out!

Fine, fine.

We can talk about my books then...

Out!!

Lend me your coat.

Kobeeeee, my man! What are you doing around here?

Looking for some company, huh?

I guess so.

Are you ok?

Could be better...

You there, another drink for my buddy,
make sure he has everything he wants.

Come on, lift your spirit, man! Tonight's on me!

Look at this, she's hot, ain't she?

There're plenty of rooms upstairs, so you know what to do.

She's a cougar, and she'll make your legs tremble.

Her.

What?

I want her.

Look...

She's new, and lacks the experience that Estibaliz has.

If you want to delight yourself, let me recommend...

I told you that I want her.

Alright, fine.

Well, many more of them here.

You can get comfortable if you want.

So...

I think we should talk about money.

Yeah. What is it you want to do?

Don't know...

What do you recommend?

Don't know either. Wouldn't know how to put it in words.

What do you like?

Everything.

Relax.

Sorry, I can't.

Excuse me if I've done something that...

No, no. It's not your fault. I don't need anything.
Coming here has been a mistake.

I've seen so many saying that they no longer need anything

from anyone, but their eyes are begging for someone.

I'm really sorry for this charade, but I love a woman, and I have hurt her.

Men, tough on the outside, and weak on the inside.

A man always loves a woman who's been cracked by pain.

And the woman that loves that man cracks herself
if that love isn't corresponded.

You may care about someone, but we love.

I can assure you that you'll never have a love as sincere,

as the one that gave you the woman that you had hurt and remained there.

Thank you.

Why?

For listening me.

I just talked.

No... I'm really thankfull.

Even if we didn't do anything, you still need to pay.

Kobe, are you sure?

Do it.

Fuck!

I just know her feelings for you may still...

Do it.

Ask her for forgiveness.

I've left a note, it will seem like a suicide.

Do it.

It was just a blank.

The next one will be the real thing.

Are you sure?

Ask her for forgiveness.

If I knew that we wouldn't have enough time...
I wouldn't have wasted it.

If someone where to write my biography, it would have two dates only.

The day when I met you, and today, when you leave.

Between one and another is when my life happens.

What happened before I forgot.

And what will happen doesn't matter anymore.

We didn't have much time to get to know each other.

It's not that we didn't have much time.
We wasted too much.

You know? Meeting me was a mistake.

You'll never be a mistake, not after all the smiles that you have given me.

Not even my pride could change that.

You're the first person that has treated me with care,
the first one that made me felt real things.

How is it possible that everything that matters to us fits in such a little thing?

In there lies all my life.

All that I have.

What if we had met under other circunstances?

What if we had fallen in love without any traumas to stand in our way?

What would have happened then?

We would probably be together.

But there are too many... and what if...?

Well...

We're going to screw up our farewell if we keep up using set phrases.

I'm glad that I have met you.

Don't forget me.

By the way, the boat is yours.

You're better driver than me anyway, aren't you?

Kobe, no... I can't accept it.

Of course you can.

By the way, inside the glove compartment you'll find money that

I earned from a business I put on sale.
That way you'll live a bit better.

What business?

Let's just say that, for the first time in my life,
I've been able to make a profit from cinema.

Kobe, thanks, but I can't...

Of course you can take it.

If someone offers you a chance, then say yes.

You'll know how to accept it over time.

Alright then.

Will I ever see you again?

No, I don't think so.

And if you follow me, I'll run from you.

Farewell.

By the way, I almost forgot.

Tell me.

Can you dispose of my mother's ashes?

Why don't you do it?

Nah, she would have liked for the woman that has loved me to do it.

Besides, the boat is yours.

As my own name says, "Hope" is the last thing you lose.

Then, I'm losing it right now.

Bye Kobe.

Bye Esperanza.

You just wanted for your pain to reach an end.

Your own pain, same as I.

It's the most humane desire of all.

That's why I isolated myself from everyone, everything that surrounded me.

I thought that I could change others,
but it's them that want to make us like their own image.

Only those of us who are different and not at peace,
will find themselves trapped within this place, forever.

Do you know where we are?

Yes... yes I know.

You are now prepared to face the truth.

PURGATORY.

The reason why you are here.

No, no, no...

You killed your own sister, and doomed yourselves to be here forever.

Why did you kill her?

I didn't kill her it was an accident !

Your mind may believe those pitiful lies, but it knows as well those

truths that hurt and that make you believe those unnecesary lies.

Remember now, why did you kill her?!

For love!!!

I killed her for love.

This world was too cruel for her.

And I couldn't stand it any longer.

She couldn't keep living in this world.

I had to end her, this pain, this suffering.

I had to.

Now you have discovered the truth of your painful existence.

You killed your own sister, and the child that was inside you.

What will happen to her now?

The same way as the kid and myself,
she'll remain andering this land forever.

Don't worry, she'll never know anything.

And me?

That is your decision to make.

I'll stay with her.

So be it...

Are we at home?
