Where are you?

I thought I saw a pussycat.

I think...

There you are.

Come on, walk.

Why do you come if you won't?

Come out, I can see you...

There you are.

There you are!

Where are you?

Where are you?

Move it.

Move it!

You�re going to die.

Get me out of here. - You�re nothing.

You�re going to die.

Who are you to hit me?

I want to go, I don't want to play anymore.

You stay here until I say so, is that understood?

Andr�s is bringing Clara.

Cover me.

Move it� - Don't move.

Let me go. - You�re nothing.

Let me go. - Shut up.

Get me out of here. - You�re nothing.

You�re going to die.

Get me out of here.

�Andr�s doesn't want to take the siesta�

Please, let me go. - Silly, it's just a game.

It hurts...

Please let me go.

There you go.

Are you retarded? you let her go.

Now go get her.

Let's get you up.

Careful.

Careful.

Well...

She ran away.

Just this one time.

Just this one time.

Look at you.

Hello. - Hi.

- Hello. - Hi.

What did you do to yourself? - Nothing.

Look at your face. What happened?

Your knee...

Look it's nothing.

Don't touch it. - But it doesn't hurt.

Touch it, Grandma. - I said no.

Have your mom pour some disinfectant on that.

Don't touch that. Come wash your hands.

Hurry or it will cool down.

I want it cold.

Milk has to be boiled, you can't drink it raw.

My mom lets me have it cold.

Just today.

We played cops and thieves today.

Did you? - I was a cop.

Did you catch any thieves? - Two.

Come on.

There were four thieves and three cops.

I caught two thieves.

Daniel caught one, Hern�n another...

...and I caught the two left.

The others caught only one each.

Why hasn't your brother come?

I don't know. I think he's playing soccer with his friends.

Tell him that I was asking about him.

He should remember he has a grandmother.

You could have dinner with your father and me tonight.

I can't remember my grandfather.

How could you?

He went to Heaven before you were born.

He died before your parents were married.

Why didn't you marry again?

Silly...

Because I devoted myself to raising my children.

Like my mom.

Have you seen your dad?

What time is it? My mom gets home at 7.

She's back already. She was getting off the bus...

...when I was walking out of the bakery shop.

Don't rush, I told her you were here.

I've got to go. - No... No...

Eat slowly, don't gulp.

I've got to go. - No, she knows you�re here.

Don't go away.

Don't go away.

What?

Bye, have her clean that wound.

I love you Grandma.

I love you Grandma.

What are waiting for?

For things to just change by themselves?

No, Nora, you�re dreaming.

You think so?

It's the least we can do.

We�re not going to look the other way, are we?

Sometimes I'm not so sure.

Don't say that.

Everything we do counts, a lot.

Hey...

Hello.

You got out early today.

Yes... come give me a kiss.

You smell like a goat. Come on... it's shower time.

Where's Armando?

He gets here at seven, go take a shower.

I'll shower later, mom. - No, now.

I'd rather do it later. - No.

You�re going to take a shower now...

...it'll be colder at night.

Go and wash your eyeballs well.

Mom...

What did I say? I told you to wash your eyeballs well.

Hey...

Aren't you forgetting something?

Bye, Andr�s.

Come on, son, don't give me hell and go take a shower.

Or else you and your brother will fight over who goes first.

Go at once.

Go at once.

You said it would be once and just one.

I feel this is getting out of hand.

I'll fix it today.

It'll all be gone this week.

Don't be scared.

Don't be scared.

Hello. How are you?

Is it fresh? Let me see.

- See you. - Bye.

- See you. - Bye.

Hello. How are you?

Hello. How are you?

Look, I got hurt, Mom - Let's get you healed then.

Been following you since school, trying to make myself noticed

I got a 9 in Biology today, Mom.

Very good, son, congratulations.

I got a 10.

You�re pulling my leg. - No, seriously.

And the teacher said I'm good at expressing orally.

Very good. Congratulations.

Can we turn the TV on?

No TV during dinner time. You can watch what you want later.

I can turn the radio on. - Yes.

This bread is all rubbery.

It's all there is.

What happened with the team thing?

There's a tournament coming and we're going to sign up.

Really?

The coach says we could win. - That's good.

We played cops and thieves today.

Did you?

We got Clara cuffed.

And she fell and started crying.

How could you do that? Poor Clara.

But then we let her run away. I let her run away.

Very good, my baby.

I'm not a baby.

And what did Mister Grown up do after all that?

We had a water war. Gustavo invited me to a swimming pool.

But don't you need to pay a fee for that?

No, his family are already subscribed, no need to pay.

You�re lying, kid do.

You�re lying. Besides, what do you know?

Okay, let's do this...

I let you go if tomorrow you go and ask your dad...

...for some money to cook.

I'm not going. Why me?

Because you want to go to that swimming pool.

I don't want to go.

Besides, he's always yelling at me.

Well, son... that's just the way your dad is.

Why doesn't he have to go?

Because I went last time, and he gave me nothing.

He said he would later on, and it's been ten days.

I don't want to go.

Come on Andr�s, my pay day is next Friday...

...and I'm changing shifts, I won't make it to the bank.

I can eat at Grandma's.

That's nice. What about me and your brother?

He can go too. Grandma's been asking about you.

I won't go there to eat three days on a row.

Why not? - Because.

Don't fig ht.

Are you going or not?

No.

No way of talking you into doing it?

None, none, none? - No.

No...

Please don't. - Listen...

Listen. - Come on, Mom, we�re eating.

My love, where are you? - Come on, Mom.

My life

I got tired of crying

And I slept a thousand years

Thinking I would never see you again

And there you were

Keeping the beat of my heart Continuar escribiendo

That will not bleed

If is not for you...

If is not for you...

I'll kill you.

Could you tell your friend Ramirez to come and pay me?

He took a bunch of stuff and said he would pay the following week.

Do you know how long I've been waiting for him?

Do you? A month and a half.

What can I do?

What can I do?

What do you want?

Mom asks that you send her money...

...because she won't get paid until Friday.

What did you do with the stuff I sent you last week?

We ate it.

We ate it.

Wait outside, I'll be there in a second.

Now because of you, he owes me more than Christ could pay.

He's been good to me. He has always paid me.

Not me.

Not me.

Come on.

What did you have for dinner last night?

Salad.

Just salad?

Let's go to the butcher's.

What's up, Estela?

I'll meet you in the office.

Where are you going? Who asked you for this?

My boss, is there something wrong?

Let her in.

Let her in.

Let him know...

What's your problem? I can�t believe it.

Go get another, immediately.

And tell your boss to come see me later.

I want to have a word with her.

Come on, you idiot.

Please, pick up the phone...

Call an ambulance.

No, no.

She's dead, no.

Look at this. - Wow.

With my cousin we cut them in half...

... to see if they survive. Come see this.

Wow. - Wow, where did you get those?

There.

You broke in?

Yes.

You�re lying. I don't believe you.

Gustavo, come on, it's lunchtime.

Can't I stay some more? - No, come on. Now.

And the rest of you, off you go to your houses.

Don't stay under the sun for so long, Andr�s.

I don't want to see her there, Grand ma.

All right. What about you, Andr�s?

Me neither.

No?

No. - Fine.

You�re going to aunt Carmen's afterwards...

Okay.

It's past noon. I'll get you anything you want.

I don't want anything.

Are you sure?

Behind a mountain, Pinocchio was hiding

He told me to count all the way to twenty-eight

But I didn't know, so I counted until eight

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight

Behind a mountain, Pinocchio was hiding

Do you want something to eat?

No.

When will my brother come?

After the burial. You didn't want to go.

You can borrow it.

What is it?

What's this?

Awesome.

What's inside this little tube?

What's inside this little tube? - What is that tube for?

You put it like this.

You don't know. - Let me do it.

It's like this.

Hey...

Where are you going?

To the bathroom.

Okay.

Raul, what are you going to do with Nora's clothes?

Stop that.

Stop that and just look for the children's clothes.

Nice temper. I was just asking.

Does anyone know where there could be a bag for this?

There's a suitcase here.

What is that?

I'm sure they're not hers.

Someone must have asked her to keep them.

Are you fucking retarded?

Are you retarded or what?

What's the difference?

I can't believe she put the children at risk.

Now... what are we going to do?

I don't know. Let's go outside and ask whose are these.

Or we could ask the police so they look for the owner.

Give up the booze, Antonio, your brain is drying.

Guys... - Your brain is dry already.

Uncle...

I'm gone. I'm not getting involved.

Involved? We�re not involved in anything.

I don't like this. I have nothing to do with this.

Stop it, no one Tells a soul about this. Okay?

We've already put the children's clothes a side...

...there's only Nora's clothes left...

Go through everything.

We need to make sure there's nothing else.

Come here, Martha.

There are pictures and papers here.

We'll burn everything but the children clothes.

What do you mean, burn?

If you don't want to help, go away, but don't get in my way.

Your way is already pretty messed up.

It's a pity, I'm putting Something s aside to take with me.

I'll go light the fire.

When I come back, I'll burn whatever hasn't been put a side.

Wait until Mom finds out about this.

What will be of her �beloved daughter-in-law�?

It's a shame to burn all of this.

We don't know if the kids might need these papers.

You do what you want.

I don't want to argue with Raul. I've put a side what I wanted.

You�re a bitch.

Not that one.

These things are my mom's.

What the fuck are you doing here?

Let me go. You shouldn't be here.

Let me go.

Armando.

Armando!

Then the piece of glass fell and our hearts stopped.

I had the best of intentions, you know me.

We were there with Martha.

We could find no explanation for it.

We couldn't believe it.

Won't believe it until I see it.

But Mom, how could I lie to you?

I'm not saying that, Carmen.

I'm saying I can't believe that about Nora.

Nora. You and your dear Nora...

Raul was mad.

Who knows what the children have seen, all this time.

Don't exaggerate.

Don't exaggerate...

Hello, Auntie.

My favourite nephew.

You cutie.

It's bitter.

How are you?

Fine.

Do you want mate?

No.

You don't drink mate? - No.

No problem.

I once knew another kid who didn't like mate either.

Awesome. Thank you.

What do you mean, thanks? They�re mine.

Well, but perhaps...

You can have them. The whole box.

The Congress must help Argentina reconcile internally...

To really accept the Holy Scriptures...

...which express their true validity...

...when they lead towards unity and fraternity.

We'll continue this subject next Monday.

I'm fed up, it's the second time Ramirez pulls a fast one on me.

I hand him over the goods...

...he promises to pay a certain date and then leaves me hanging.

Don't work with him anymore.

It's not that easy, I see them everyday on the street.

They've always been like that. - That's true.

Sit down, your milk is getting cold.

Perhaps that's the solution, not to work with them anymore.

Because...

I'm not amused that they�re not paying me.

Isn't there cold milk?

No. That's all the milk there is.

Besides, milk is drank hot.

Do you know Josefina Lopardo, Mom?

No.

There was another accident in Santo Tome's bridge.

She wasn't from here, right? - No.

That name rings a bell, you know.

From where?

What's the matter now?

They�re burned.

Look, Andr�s, your behavior has been far from good.

So don't give me hell and eat what we have.

Is that better?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Told you. It still hurts? - Yes.

You should take something. - I should take vacations, Mom.

I haven't in years.

You've always said it was a waste of money.

After breakfast...

...we�re emptying the closet to make room for your things.

Have you seen my stereo? - What do you want it for?

To listen to music, my godfather lent me two cassettes.

I don't think you should be listening to music.

What will the neighbours think?

I'll play it at a low volume.

I don't know, ask your dad.

I will wash that.

You won't guess what happened at the grocery.

Do you want some mate? The water is hot.

No, thanks. Ramon, Dominga's son...

...asked if I knew what you were going to do with Nora's house.

So?

Turns out he's getting some money...

...from his FIAT retirement and wants to buy a house.

I couldn't believe it.

What is it you can't believe?

Seriously?

Yes, I don't see what's so strange.

The body hasn't even cooled down yet.

They�re like vultures.

They might be vultures, but something has to be done.

Keeping that house...

...will be nothing but a waste of money.

With all the bills and the maintenance.

Have you thought of anything, Ra�l?

I'll think of something.

I could rent it, so it would be less of an expense.

I could also use it as a storeroom for the tiles.

So that I'd no longer pay the rent of the one I'm using now.

Or sell it...

...should a good offer appear. - That could be.

Leave that.

What will people say if they see you doing the dishes?

Twenty-two, twenty-three...

...twenty-four, twenty-five...

...twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight...

Twenty-eight, yeah.

What can we play?

Who's getting a ball?

Can I help you?

Yes. Let's see.

Do these.

Your aunt left before cleaning these.

I'll show you how.

One at a time, you pull them off and clean both sides.

Grandma...

Can I watch TV in the afternoon?

Okay, what will you watch?

Kung Fu is on at four.

So you�re not taking your nap?

No, I'd rather watch TV.

Then we'll set the TV at a low volume...

...and close the door...

...because your dad will surely take his nap.

Did you know that for last year's parada...

...my mom made me a Kwai Chang Caine costume?

Who?

It was awesome. But it was real, made of fabric.

Not plastic like the one they sell at the stores.

It even had a hair ribbon. - Great.

And we took a picture. - I want to see that picture.

It's one of those small ones that go inside a little tube.

Can't you shut up for at least two seconds?

Damn.

Don't you see I'm trying to read the paper and I can't.

We�re talking about important things here.

So, if we�re bothering you so much go read somewhere else.

And what happened when you went to your aunt Celia's?

Which one's Celia? The blonde or dark-haired one?

The blonde one. - The blonde one.

Since she dyed her hair...

I can't tell them apart.

Hello, Alfredo, how are you doing?

Hello, Olga. I'm looking for Ra�l.

He's not here, dear.

Do you want to come in?

No, that's okay. I have things to do.

Please tell him to call me, I'll be home all day.

I will. How's your mother.

Fine.

Morning. - Morning.

Her legs hurt a bit but she's doing fine.

Send her my regards. - I will.

What's the matter?

You've cleaned them so well.

But don't break them, I like to add them as they are.

Very good.

Watch those bread crumbles.

What did he want?

Mom. I just asked you what he wanted.

Andr�s, go buy a bottle of wine.

Which one?

This one. Same label.

Can I buy some gum?

Fine.

Two. One for him and one for me.

Very good. But you can have it After nap time.

Here.

You suck.

Because of me? What did I do?

Come on.

Go get it.

No fucking way.

Hello.

Hello.

Where do you come from? Where were you?

Nothing... nothing. Bye.

Grandma, you don't know... - The shoes.

Grandma, you don't know... - The shoes.

You won't believe what we saw.

We were playing in the abandoned field.

Your father's looking for you.

In a minute, but, we were playing... Continuar escribiendo

Now.

He's looking for you right now.

He's looking for you right now.

They ratted you out.

What?

Leave me alone with your brother.

Where were you?

Playing with my friends.

What were you doing inside the warehouse?

I didn't go all the way in.

I didn't go all the way in.

Listen to me, kiddo.

In this house, you do what I say. Get used to it.

When your mother lived, I didn't get in the way.

A whole other story.

But it's different now.

But it's different now.

Is that clear?

Yes.

You�re never going back to that place you went today.

Understood? - Yes.

Yes what? - Yes, Dad.

Armando. I'm calling you.

I'm here. - Listen...

You�re both going to bed now.

Why? If I... - Because I say so.

You�re going to bed right now.

And you get up only when I tell you to.

And you get up only when I tell you to.

Come on.

I won't be able to watch Kung Fu today.

I won't be able to watch Kung Fu today.

Let's let your father calm down. Then, we'll see.

How are you, loser? - Fine. Where were you?

How are you, loser? - Fine. Where were you?

At my Grandma's house. In Rinc�n. What did you do?

Nothing, they�re not letting me go out as much.

The guys beyond the railway held a marbles tournament.

Sucks I wasn't here, I could have pillaged their pampered asses.

Sucks I wasn't here, I could have pillaged their pampered asses.

Did you play? - How could I?

My marbles are at my house and they won't let me go for them.

Why?

The other day I saw your grandmother, at your house.

At my house? You�re full of it.

Seriously, I was climbing over the wall...

...and I saw her in your mom's room.

...and I saw her in your mom's room.

My grandma?

Mendez and Otrino.

Why don't you tell the class what's so interesting.

What?

Nothing.

What? - Nothing...

Andr�s is sad because his mom died.

Andr�s is sad because his mom died.

That's what we were talking a bout.

Silence.

Is that true, Mendez?

Yes.

What are you laughing at, Meyer?

To the Principal's Office. Right now.

But I... - No buts.

We'll have a word with the Principal.

Please... Come on, come on.

Please... Come on, come on.

Silence. Start writing.

Why did you tell her.

You�re an idiot. - Because it's better for us.

Look... lower your head. - Why?

Do what I say, lower your head and pretend you�re crying.

What for? - Come on.

Teacher?

What is it?

Can I go with Mendez to the bathroom?

Okay, go.

What do you do when you come here?

What do you do when you come here?

Nothing, I just sit and wait until it's break time.

You really made this sling shot?

Yes.

It's awesome.

Here, you can have it. - Really?

Yes, sure.

Yes, sure.

The Sun is rising... - Three blind mice...

They all run after the Farmer's wife...

...who cut off their tails...

Mendez. What's with you that you�re so funny today?

I didn't do anything.

I don't feel like listening to your non sense today...

...so I'd better not hear you for the rest of the lesson.

...so I'd better not hear you for the rest of the lesson.

Understood? - But it's a singing lesson.

Silence. Silence, class.

So you�re funny? To the Principal's Office.

Why? - Because I say so.

There are two brothers, in second and fourth grade...

...that haven't come for two weeks.

So?

We could call and ask what's going on, right?

No. - Why not?

No. - Why not?

Report the absent days and forward it to the Principal.

Let her decide.

Come in.

Come in.

Come in.

Could you tell Amelia to come? Tell Cata as well.

Cata... we're having some issues with the student Mendez.

Cata... we're having some issues with the student Mendez.

Mendez has recently lost his mother.

How? What happened?

What happened?

An accident.

A car accident?

Peeking too much can be dangerous.

What's up?

What's up?

We've got a report.

We've got a report.

Bye.

I don't know how you can study with the TV on.

I'm not studying, I' m reading.

Very good.

Why is Dad always yelling at me?

Your dad has many problems and he's really worried.

He'll get over it. You argue quite a lot too.

When are we going to go to my house?

This is your house.

I mean my other house.

I mean my other house.

Why do you want to go there?

To go get my marbles.

Okay, we'll get them for you.

Grandma...

When you got he re can you get them for me?

I will ask your dad for the key and go.

You don't have the key?

No. Not for that house.

Don't you?

Then how did you get in?

I've never been there since you are here.

No?

No?

Remember when they were beating those guys last night...

...and they were throwing them on the floor?

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

Last night. When they hooded that girl.

You must have dreamed that. - I didn't, you were there.

No, I slept all night long.

You covered my mouth, don't you remember?

I slept all night long and you slept...

...until I took you over to my bed, this morning.

It was a dream.

No, it wasn't, you were there.

Don't pick things off the ground, it could have germs on it.

Leave that.

You�re going to be late.

- Do not be lying. - What happens to you.

- How is it that you get? - If I am not going to get with him.

- Break to the face... - To whom?

WINTER

WINTER

Lopez told me you�re improving, that you�re playing very well.

Yes, now I'm in the 5th position, higher up.

Because you weren't so good at first, let's be honest.

I've improved. - That's good.

I've improved. - That's good.

Dad, I want to go to a club too.

Look at that.

It seems we have two soccer players in the family.

When I was 18 I went to tryouts to play for Union.

When I was 18 I went to tryouts to play for Union.

And what happened?

What happened?

My dad didn't let me go because he thought it was a waste of time.

No, what happened...

...is that we needed him to work to help support the family.

I will go and sign you up you tomorrow.

Besides, I know the coach of the junior leagues.

There will be no problem.

But I don't want to go to play soccer.

But you just told me you wanted to.

What sport is it? - Swimming.

But it's winter, dear. It's very cold.

Yes, uncle, but I want to go to a navy club.

That's a very expensive club.

Gustavo's family is already subscribed.

They invited me, so I don't need to pay at all.

That's what he said, we need to see what his parents say.

But my mom had already arranged all with his mom.

Didn't she, Armando?

Didn't she?

I don't remember.

I don't know Andr�s...

We'll see.

Don't you chicken out.

Saturday at 11, at the field by the rail road.

Four against four, No you break it, you pay it. �

And no rematch, what you win, you keep.

A circular match of five.

I have four...

Then you can't play. You need five and a lead.

No problem, I'll lend you some.

Give them back to me once we win. But I get to choose which.

Otrino are you done? - Yes. Let's go.

Go to the stage and get ready.

Come here, Mendez. I'll paint a moustache on you.

But that's going to burn.

It doesn't burn. Come, Mendez.

Don't be such a wimp, come here Mendez.

Let's see... Still.

Mendez. Mendez.

Let me see... Stay still. No, it won't burn.

There you go. Let's go.

What are you doing?

Nothing, just washing my face.

I meant, what are you doing here?

Gustavo, it's lunchtime.

Coming, Mom.

How are you, Olga? - Hello.

Hi. What can I do for you?

I'm looking for Ra�l. - Hasn't he come to see you?

No, and I'm sorry to insist but I need to talk to him.

I don't know what could I do. I told him.

If you let me know what you need...

The thing is...

I gave Nora some books, for her to keep them for me.

Then, we all know what happened, and I need them back.

What kind of books?

Books...

Books that I use to teach in the university.

But some are borrowed, not mine.

I could grab pen and paper, you could tell me the titles...

That's fine, don't worry. I'll talk to Ra�l.

Thanks, Olga.

Bye. - Bye.

Are you going to the club? - Why?

Because Carmen told me you were coming to her house...

...and since you didn't, I thought you were going now.

No, I didn't go.

When will you go?

Whenever Carmen isn't around.

Why's that?

She drives me mad talking about Nora...

...and those fucking pamphlets.

Always telling me how I should raise my kids.

I know what I have to do.

But what could I do when Nora lived?

Whatever I did, it was always wrong.

Just like his mother. The same laughter.

He's got that thing of staring at you when he dislikes something.

He even smells like her.

How silly.

Good mate.

Shit.

Did you cut yourself? - Yes.

Go get me the sugar jar. Quick.

Here.

What happened on Kung Fu today?

These guys locked so me chinese men inside a mine...

...and Kwai Chang Caine saved them.

Did he fight his way in?

You could learn Kung Fu in Uni�n.

They don't have that.

How's that? I saw it.

No, they teach Judo. - It's the same, Mom.

No, it's not the same. Besides, I want to swim.

The water is too dangerous.

Don't you want to learn to defend yourself?

Your grandmother is right.

I'll go and register you tomorrow.

We can go together so you can see what it's all about.

Then we'll go downtown and we can buy your gear.

What do you think?

But I already signed up for a marbles tournament.

Marbles?

That's just awesome...

How many lessons a week?

Two hours twice a week.

That's good.

More than anything, I want him to focus on a discipline...

...because his mind is sort of wandering around.

So what do you do?

That's not the same recipe you used to make.

No, Martha gave me this one.

I haven't heard of her for a long time now.

Me neither.

I thought I saw her the other day, but I'm not sure...

My favourite nephew.

Happy birthday. Let's see.

No, not the ear...

Not the ear? I've waited for it all year and you won't let me?

I have a little surprise for my little nephew...

Here you go.

Go wash that mouth.

Mom... I was giving him a present.

Mom... I was giving him a present.

Nice toy.

It's a birthday gift.

So it's your birthday today?

Yes. - Happy birthday.

What's your name?

My name is Sebasti�n.

And yours is Andr�s.

How do you know that?

I know lots of things.

I'm like God, all-knowing and all-seeing.

I believe you.

So, how many years are you turning?

Wait a second...

...if you�re like God, you should know how old am I.

How smart.

I'll give you a present, since it's your birthday...

...and you�re so smart.

You can ask for anything. Whatever you think of.

That.

This?

Yes, that.

Happy birth day.

Who were you talking to?

No body.

No body.

Hey...

Happy birthday.

I'm going to buy you some clothes.

What do you need?

What do you need?

Come on, it's time to eat.

Hello. How are you? Good afternoon.

My pleasure. - Nice to meet you.

This is Hern�n, my son, I wanted to sign him up for Judo.

Yes, no problem. You like sports?

You fucking moron, I'll teach you a lesson.

What are you doing?

Who are you?

His uncle. What's up?

He punctured my tire, are you going to fix it?

How do you know it was him?

Because he stormed off with those other punks.

Should I catch them, they will need ass surgery.

Just because he ran you claim it was him?

How many innocent people do you know that run away?

Many.

Many.

I'll help you change that tire.

You think helping me change the tire will fix this?

Andr�s.

You know him?

Sure, we're neighbours.

Who are you?

His uncle.

I didn't think you were part of the family.

ID please.

Why is that?

Sub-officer Miranda. Identification.

What happened, Andr�s?

His tire got punctured, and he says it was me.

I didn't do anything.

Fine.

Did you hear? He didn't do anything.

We should trust our Youth�..

Or at least trust in children.

One last thing...

This is your uncle?

Yes.

Take your nephew home.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Don't turn back. Walk straight and don't turn back.

Armando. Take him home.

I will. - Yes, please do.

What were you doing with him? - Let me go.

Come on, you moron.

Come on, you moron!

ON SALE

Good, Andr�s.

Very good. Perfect.

What's your problem, Hern�n?

In Judo, you should also learn how to lose.

You�re learning that lesson today.

Back to your places.

SPRING

SPRING

No apple for you, you won't want dinner later.

For your trading cards.

There you go.

Give me a smoke.

It's my last one.

Andr�s.

What?

Can you go get me cigarettes?

And what do I get?

And what do I get?

What do you want?

50 Pesos.

What?

50 Pesos.

That's one expensive errand.

What can I do?

Particulares and a match box.

Keep the change.

I put money too. - Let me see them.

Can I see them? - No, they�re mine.

Sebastian.

Sebastian!

What are you doing there?

Come on, go away.

Move it.

Give me my cigarettes.

Go, Andr�s.

J J went a little too far with his tools.

Is he fucking retarded? He's got shit for brains.

What do we do?

What can we do, for fuck's sake. Go get me a car.

Eat your tomato.

He has the cash waiting.

Who?

The son of the neighbour association's president.

He said he could top any other offer.

And you would save the real estate company's commission.

Or you could wait until me and Armando are old enough.

Kids have no saying in adult discussions.

His idea is a very good one.

Remember when we made the tree house, and it fell apart?

How could I forget?

You broke your arm that day. - Yes.

Do you remember Chicha? - The Boxer dog.

Boy, was that dog ugly.

She was cute. - Cute? She was awful.

I could tell where you were because of the dog.

Do you remember them makeover we made...

...when you moved in with Nora.

Of course I do.

A lot of people gave us a hand that day.

Elba, Martha... Domingo, too.

Wasn't Alfredo in charge of the electrical setup?

I don't know, Mom. Let me think it through.

We'll see.

I gave you his number, now it's up to you.

Eat.

Eat.

What are you doing here instead of taking your nap?

I'm not sleepy.

Where did you get that?

I borrowed them from Gustavo.

Are you sure?

Yes.

What did you have for homework?

A writing.

Read it to me.

I'll read it to you.

"Mi family and me"

"My family is very big, I have many cousins and many aunts.

Now I live at my Grandma's house. She's very good and she always...

...gives me black sugar buns with milk.

My house is very big, I had a room to sleep and play.

I like Kung Fu, and when I'm old er I will go to China...

...to learn how to walk on rice paper...

...which is very smooth.

My mom's name was Nora, she wore a perfume called Gellatti.

She was very pretty and she always laughed...

...when she was playing with me or my brother.

When I'm older I will live in that house again...

...and I will have my room back. The end. '

Yeah, they can't play.

They suck.

Let's go. - No.

Let's go. - Let's go.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

A hundred and forty-seven, a hundred and forty-eight...

Andr�s.

Last day, right?

What do you want?

Nothing, I saw you sitting here and I thought we could talk.

About what.

We used to talk when I went to your house, remember?

You talked with my mom, not with me.

Do you like them?

I have 158 marbles. - Really?

I used to have a collection too, and I was pretty good.

I once snapped your dad's marble.

My dad? - Yes.

We had a tournament, with a jackpot and everything.

With a jackpot?

You needed 15 marbles to play, and 10 more for the jackpot.

And the winner took it all.

And who won?

Domingo, a friend of ours.

Your dad's, your mom's and mine.

And what happened to your marbles?

I don't remember.

When I was a kid I liked reading better than my toys.

So I looked after my books more.

Your mom liked reading too.

Do you remember how we were always I ending each other books?

Yes. I saw my mother storing the books you gave her.

Really? Where?

In my house.

Your grandmother's house? - No, mine.

I talked to her about the books but she says she can't find them.

I know where they are.

Where?

My father burned them.

See? This is the one I mentioned.

It has another steel-ball inside.

It's awesome. How many do you have?

58 marbles and 5 leads.

Why don't we organize a new tournament?

Now that the classes are over.

Sure, with a jackpot.

What's a jackpot?

We all add the same amount of marbles...

...and the winner takes it all.

Sounds good, but how many should we give?

20. - 40.

No body has that many.

I do. - Me too.

But I don't wanna lose all my marbles.

You�re a wuss. If you know how to play, then you won't lose.

Look.

Look.

Forty times ten equals...

...four hundred.

four hundred.

Wouldn't you like to win 400 marbles?

When?

Two Sunday's from now.

Hi, Grandma. - Hello.

Your milk.

Drink it.

But it's cold.

Didn't you like it cold? - Yes.

Do you know Mart�n? Alfredo's nephew.

No, why?

Because Dora told me he's changing schools...

...so he might end up in your class.

It's funny Alfredo didn't tell you when you went out to walk.

Hi.

Hello.

What are you talking about?

Alfredo.

Sorry? Continuar escribiendo

Alfredo and Andr�s are really good friends.

He's not my friend.

What do you mean? If you even go out to walk together.

We didn't go out to walk, I just ran into him.

Can we have a word, Mom?

Yes, let's go to my room.

There are some packages I need you to get for me...

...above the ward robe.

Come on. Come on.

Watch out.

Run. Run. Run. - Come on.

Over the re. Watch out.

My team is over here.

Run farther away.

Come on.

Watch out there.

SUMMER

SUMMER

What did you ask for?

I'm getting an ambulance at my other grandma's house.

I'm getting the whole Col�n uniform.

I'm getting Uni�n's.

And you?

Let's go outside, it's hot in here.

And Child Jesus?

It's not twelve yet.

I don't get it.

Child Jesus was born at twelve.

Then the presents are put in place along with the figurine.

What are you doing here? Go out to play with the kids.

You�re lying.

Don't believe me.

I saw you at Guadalupe's party. Last weekend.

What were you doing there? - I was there with my friends.

I went with the girls fro m church.

I saw you making out.

I don't know. I don't think so.

Always with your hair like that.

You should have come with me to the hair salon.

But of course, she had to go to this swimming pool.

Drop it, Mom.

Don't talk to me like that.

Do you want some juice.

I'll get him some.

In the end we decided to go to Mar del Plata.

Hello. - Hello.

It looks good like that.

Thank you.

He said he would come around the club this week.

The show could have been another day. It's all overlapped.

What's the matter?

I talked the coach into trying Armando out.

And now it turns out Andr�s has his Judo exam that day.

I'm taking Hern�n. I can take Andr�s as well.

It's not that. I want to be there.

It's the first time I see him excited about something.

Come here, Andr�s.

It seems the barbecue man is running a little late.

At least we have a barbecue man, because if it was up to you...

Some people were born to cook a barbecue...

...and some were born to eat it.

They�re taking it all in quite well, aren't they.

I expected them to be sadder.

They�re with their father, what's better than that?

Their mother. - Come on, uncle.

The one acting a little strange is Andr�s. He's too aggressive.

He's got Hern�n begging for a break.

They�re the same age, the same interests...

...it's only logical that the will be jealous.

It's Dinner time kids.

Here, here. Come over here.

Were you good this year?

Not here, there.

Did you write Santa a letter? - Yes.

What did you ask for?

A battery powered car. - Great.

I asked for a long-legged doll. - It's dinner-time.

What did Grand a make?

French fries.

Slowly, don't choke on that.

Didn't the kids say anything?

About what? - About their mother.

No... it's talked about. But nothing explicit.

Well, it's for the best, right?

For the best? What? Not to remember their mother?

You've had a little too much to drink, why don't you go to bed?

Why don't you go to bed? I ask you, what's better?

For them not to remember their own mother?

What?

There is no yelling in my house.

You�re right, I'm sorry.

I'd forgotten I was in your house.

My house, that's right.

And if you don't like it, you know what you have to do.

I'm old enough already to be criticized around.

Especially, by you.

And why especially me?

Because you�re a poor drunk man. Living off other people's charity.

You�re right, but I live the way I want to.

And not the way you want me to live.

You live the way I want you to.

Or haven't you noticed yet?

And haven't you noticed that your time has long passed?

And that "Lady Olga" thing. That's no good at all.

This is my house and these are my rules.

That's how it is, like it or not.

That's the way I was raised, and I didn't do so bad.

So far, dear. Cheers. - Come on, Uncle.

It's Christmas Eve, we can't be fighting like this.

Poor Nora.

Nora was like a daughter to me. A daughter.

I'd known her since she was born. Poor thing.

She told me things she told nobody else.

And when they started talking about her and Alfredo...

I went and asked her, and she told me it was true.

That she was going out with him, I thought it was fine.

She was entitled to start over.

Mom...

You knew that and you didn't tell me?

What could I tell you?

What could I tell you?

You�re a man, Ra�l. You�re not a child.

What could I tell you?

I made her promise she wouldn't drive father and sons a part.

And she kept that.

Did she or didn't she? She did.

She made a mistake with Alfredo, he was the wrong man.

He was involved in things...

He got her involved in things...

Things that could harm the kids.

I want to be able to sleep peacefully.

Not thinking they might come after one of my loved ones.

But Nora's long gone so...

But he's around.

Alfredo. He talks to the kids. He's washing their brains.

He's confusing them.

How do you know that?

Because I'm!Lady Olga" and I'm respected here...

...though it upsets you deeply.

They respect me and tell me everything I need to know.

We look after each other among neighbours...

...though you don't care.

Calm down, Mom, it's bad for your health.

I am calmed.

How are you, neighbour?

Fine.

And those papers?

Why?

They could be important.

I'm going to burn them.

You�re lighting a fire here?

What if you set it all on fire?

Are these your dad's?

No.

They�re my uncle's.

The one with the wheel?

That uncle.

That uncle.

I'll see you later.

Pour down your marbles, gentlemen.

You�re awful. - You can't play.

Give it to me.

You don't know how to shoot.

Get over here.

I don't fucking know what else I can do about you.

I don't know how to fucking talk to you.

I warn you, and you still don't understand.

You�ll end up bald.

And you don't understand.

I'm tired of you, Andr�s.

You know what? I'm listening to your grandmother's advice.

No, Dad, no. - Get the fuck out of here.

I will behave. - Get out of here.

Seriously, I will. - Stay there, you fucking punk.

Come over here. - I will behave.

Don't burn them.

I will behave.

Let me go.

Don't burn them.

The bank manager gave me this.

To the best employee, obviously.

I don't want to say anything, but careful with that glass.

If you had let me bring the Vithel Tonne for Christmas...

...it would have been a lot better.

It was a little dry.

It had four capers at most.

Why couldn't we go eat out tonight, Mom?

Because there are mosquitoes.

Aren't you hot with that sweater?

No, I feel fine.

Hello.

Where's my uncle?

He's in his room, he didn't want to come.

At least tonight we'll have dinner in peace.

Did you hear?

What?

They found Alfredo's car. In a field.

His car?

Yes. It was all burned down.

And he was nowhere to be found.

I had no idea.

What's that?

Get over here.

It wasn't me.

My God. Hern�n. This is outrageous.

You are going to drive me mad.

You could have burned yourself.

Outrageous.

We�re going to get going, Mommy.

Where are you going?

To the neighbour's association to say hi and back.

Carmen isn't coming?

She went to her mother-in-law's house to spend the day.

Andr�s. Do you want to come?

Let's go.

Let's go.

Eat some.

You will eat it when you�re hungry.

Lady Olga, how are you? - Fine and you.

Happy New Year. - You too, dear.

Is Ra�l here? - No, he went to the club already.

Okay then, thank you. I'll see you later.

Send my regards to your wife. - Thanks

Eat some.

Stop that noise.

Stop it.

Look at me when I'm talking to you.

Look at me.

Look at me.

I want you to be my love

The love of my life

To leave my love with in your smile

Love of my life

Hey, where's your grandmother?

I don't know, she must be home.

Don't stay under the sun for too long. Let's go.

Look what I made at home.

Looks good.

THE END
