Original subtitles

-Juan. -Look at me!

-Easy, easy. -Hey, hey.

Don't touch me! Stop it!

Time to go home, I think.

No! I won't leave!

Why do I have to do what you say?

Juan!

I'm not going home! I'm staying!

Let's go. It's time.

No, no. More guests are coming. Friends.

No! No one is leaving! No one.

Andrés, we're closing.

You're lying. I don't want to be alone.

I'm not bad.

I know you're not. I know.

They call me a whore because I try in vain to love.

You need some rest. You'll get over it.

-I don't know how to love. -I know.

Where is my home, Santiago?

I know. I know.

I forgot.

No one is waiting for me.

-You need to sleep. -No.

That's all.

No. You need to sleep, I don't need anything.

I'm dead.

Calm down.

I want to sing a love song

And it's for you

And many others

Know that it's no mystery where you're at

I want to sing a love song

475 Conquista Street.

This is what Dad taught me.

Your dad?

He taught me to mix my booze. That's the way to go.

What do you mean? It's the opposite.

Yeah, but Dad said you should.

Because it's good to mix it...

You make antibodies.

No. It's us three.

Two sisters and me, the youngest.

What? I don't look young?

You know...

Do you work out?

You're sporty, right?

Why?

Your body, I guess. You look like you skate.

-Skate? -Yes.

No.

No?

I thought you were a skater.

You could be. You have the body for it.

No, but that's great.

-Really? -Yes.

What?

I don't know. Seems odd.

I've never kissed an older guy.

It's like a fantasy.

You're gorgeous... What?

-I need a drink. -No.

Yes.

Don't leave. Come back.

Holy crap, Santiago!

I can't believe it.

Fede.

Where were you?

I was here.

I can't believe this. How long has it been?

How are you here?

Where did you come from?

You look so handsome, man.

I didn't know you were back.

Yes, I tried to live in Madrid, but I couldn't stand it.

This city... I have amazing memories.

Come here. Let's have a drink.

The impotence of words, you know?

This is about love or hate.

Whose house is this?

-Mine. -Yours?

Yes.

It's mine.

It started out as a dinner for four

and now... voilà.

What is that?

Nothing. Just passion.

You know? I bought a boat.

It was a crazy night, and we fought, yelled.

We got stranded, I hit the mast and...

Now the boat lives in the marina and it's a pain in my neck.

My first job was at the marina. As a waiter.

See? You've always been such a hard worker.

You've always fought to make a living.

Just look at where you came from.

But I've never had to fight for anything.

What do you mean?

I saw the pictures of your last show.

I loved it.

-Really? -Yes.

I thought it was crap.

The sculptures of buried men at the beach

staring at each other.

Come, let me show you something.

This is my favorite spot.

This is amazing.

Not too close, Fede.

But you need to lean forward to enjoy the view.

Are you scared? Come, come.

Come. Come closer, look. Lean forward.

Come on, lean forward.

Come.

Come look. Use your hand.

Use your hand, okay? Good.

Now look down.

Look, look...

Look? See the mall?

You see? Do you? Look.

You have to listen to your deepest desires,

otherwise, it's senseless.

You have to dig deep and listen to them.

You know?

Dig deep.

What are you doing?

We could have fun you and I.

Take me to your boat,

I could grill you some fish, we could swim.

We're two sides of the same coin and we know each other too well.

Plus, the boat sank.

Fede.

I just got a text.

They're raising the rent 40% as from March.

No. How?

It's illegal.

I can afford it,

but I'm sure some people can't.

You can afford it? It's 40%.

It's fine, really. I work hard to afford it, but...

-What do you do? -Don't complain.

That damn family and the scorn of tradition.

Social disapproval.

No, disapproving families.

Being damned to follow family traditions.

In mine, tradition dictates you get divorced.

Not a single couple has lasted over ten years.

They get married, have kids,

but get divorced or are unhappy.

Even though culture evolves, traditions are still there.

You can't avoid it.

Otherwise, you'd be too free.

What do you mean?

Sure, we have traditions, structures, everything.

But life blows away like the wind.

Talk to me about blowing.

Life flies away like the wind.

What's up, buzzkill?

I know, dear, but you choose rent.

I can afford it, it's fine. It's cool.

But you have to eat.

No, no. I rent.

I like renting, but if you're abroad...

-Where are you going? -I have to go.

Come here.

What is it?

I don't know what I feel.

I look at my life and...

Look at me.

Look at me, Santiago.

You're here.

You're gorgeous.

You're such a flirt.

Laila?

Laila?

Where the hell were you, you drunk?

I called you 80 times. Why won't you pick up?

What is it?

Why won't you pick up?

I could be dead. You don't care.

You don't give a crap.

My phone died! What is it?

Get out! I'm out! I'm out!

-What is it? -Get off me!

-Tell me. -Get off me!

What the hell happened?

You forgot about me. You took my keys.

I've been locked in here since yesterday, you nutcase.

That party was once in a life time!

Damn it, my mistake. Sorry.

'Sorry?' 'Sorry,' you say?

I missed the party, you idiot!

My mistake, sorry.

You don't even remember!

Calm down. I made a mistake.

You're not forgiven.

Let go of me.

Calm down, you nutcase.

I partied alone like a loser.

Calm down.

Calm down.

You want me to calm down? Is that what you want?

I won't calm down, damn door!

Stop doing that!

I'm leaving forever, Dad.

Stop it! Stop! Come here. Come here.

Get off!

Calm down!

Relax.

It's bad for you.

Calm down. Stop it!

Get off me!

Stop. Stop it.

The only good thing about you was Luis, and he's gone.

Stop trying to hurt me. I screwed up.

People screw up.

Here.

Ask me for anything, whatever you want is yours.

Get out!

-Careful. -With what?

Did you really spit on me?

What? You think it's pretend?

Hi, Luis. Hi, how are you?

I'm good. Laila and I are just waking up.

We miss you. I want to know how you are.

I just had an idea.

Can we go to the beach?

You read, I cook. Relax, have a good time.

I can take care of everything at the restaurant,

talk to the manager.

Things are going well.

I'm doing very well.

Let me get the tickets. If you agree, I'll do it.

Love you. Call me.

Laila, Laila, Laila.

-What? -Laila.

-What? -Wake up, wake up.

-What? -Do you want to crack coconuts?

Where?

Call Eugenio. Come on.

-Okay. -Tell him.

Hello, hello.

Let's go. Sun screen. Come on, let's go, Laila.

Are you coming to...? Hold on... Get...

I don't get it. You asked for the pool.

Hi, how are you?

Good. Hi, La. Scorching heat, right?

It's nice. Bye, kisses. Hold on a minute!

Stop it!

Mom!

Why are the lights on?

What is it? Is everything okay? Mom!

Granny?

Mom? Wake up.

Mom, wake up. Mom?

-What is it? What? -Granny.

We came to visit you.

We're going to Ituzaingó. To the cottage. Come on, Mom.

What cottage? What? No, no. I won't go.

But it's beautiful out.

I can't go.

It's such a nice day. The sun is out.

We need a little fresh air, Mom.

-Come here, help me. -Get up, Granny.

Help me out.

Get these sheets off.

Up, up.

-Stop. Stop. -What is it?

I don't feel well.

Okay, breathe. Breathe with me.

Breathe with me, Mom.

Turn it down, Santiago, please.

Stay here for a second.

Do I look good? Am I pretty?

Very pretty. Go.

Can we get out?

He said to wait here.

What for?

How's the book going?

Book?

Your book, how's the writing going?

Why are you here?

Why are you guys here?

I left you a message, did you get it?

We're separated, Santiago.

Come on, let's go.

If you wanted to come, you should have come alone.

I couldn't go to your graduation, you know?

It's fine, I get it.

Hi, Izabel.

Hi.

If us being here is awkward, just tell us.

No, of course not.

We didn't know you'd come.

Awkward why?

No...

-Not at all. -Just tell us...

Of course not.

Do you want to swim?

No.

I can't.

Why not?

Help me... Marcos, help me.

Are you okay?

I missed you.

Stop, stop...

Why are you here?

Come back to bed.

You look awful.

Have you been sleeping?

You would have loved what happened the other day.

There was this guy, thin, beautiful...

He was on stage at an acting class

and he was shaking.

The teacher says, 'Are you okay?'

The guy lies and says he is fine,

but he keeps shaking.

So she asks again,

'How are you? How are you really?'

'Fine,' he says, but he looks the same.

Then...

Calmly, the teacher asks,

'Look... Tell me the truth.

If you're nervous, say,

'I'm nervous, very nervous.'

So then the guy says,

'It's true, I really am nervous,

very nervous.

I want to go home.'

And as he says this, while he's saying it,

something happens,

he relaxes and starts acting.

He starts doing amazing things, you know?

Incredible things...

Get it?

I love you.

Tell me you love me.

Say it.

Say it.

Tell me you love me.

Stop it, Santi.

This was a nice moment and you're ruining it.

No, I'm trying to be careful,

but you don't get it.

I went through a lot lately

and I'm good here, alone far away from the city.

I'm writing, finding new things...

Things inside me....

Being alone makes you happy?

Yes, you should try it.

I can't, I have a daughter.

Do something that's your own.

You need to find your inner balance.

I have something that's my own. What do you mean?

I have a job, a daughter, at least I have a family.

Why are you laughing? What's so funny?

Because I don't read?

Because I didn't go to college like you?

Is that funny?

I thought you were more serene.

I am.

Let's do something nice, go on a trip, have fun.

Enough.

Stop it!

Come on. Come on...

Get off, Santiago, stop.

Do you know what's funny?

You vanished when I was most in love with you.

That's not true, I didn't vanish.

Stop it.

I didn't. Where am I? Where am I? I'm here.

No, I don't buy it.

I don't buy that sitting there in the sand,

for hours on end, staring at the sky...

Dani, I'm not trying to convince you.

I'm saying this is a vacation.

What would I do?

Go away, lay on the beach. Enjoy the hot sand, the sea.

I'm not going with you.

No, I'm not saying you should.

I'm saying I wouldn't climb a mountain on vacation.

I don't want to work out on vacation...

Are you finishing school?

Yes, this is my last year.

Good.

Where are you going, Santi?

I need bars.

I wouldn't dream of climbing a mountain.

Not this year, not next year. I won't, I won't...

What I'm saying is mountains, beach, beach, mountains...

No, not with you.

I won't go with you either.

Well, she wants me there.

Santi, Santi...

I'm glad you're here.

What a great day. Such a lovely day.

I love December,

it makes you forget everything.

Christmas, New Year's.

It's like it brings out your wild side, right?

It's like time goes by differently, right?

You spend all year piling up crap, stressing out...

Sometimes I feel my head will explode.

Do you? Like I'm going to die...

Yanko is so grown up.

Yes.

So handsome.

He really is.

Too bad his father is a deadbeat.

His father is a handful. He's depressed now.

He was fired, he moved in with his mom...

He spends all day at home watching porn.

We still see each other.

I think I'm a little dumb.

No, you're not dumb. You're not.

It's a damn vicious circle.

I'm glad you and Luis are back together.

So cool!

We're doing well. It's good, I'm happy.

You make a nice couple.

What's up, scoundrels?

No, what do you want?

Am I late? Am I early?

What are you looking for? This? Want some? Do you?

-No, no, I'm fine. -Come on.

Just a sniff? Come on.

Once in a while it's fine.

I want just a little.

It's really tiny.

This? Only half... Just half, almost nothing.

Nothing to see here.

Nothing to see!

-Bring him over, Santi. -What a beautiful horse!

Bring it here.

Go, go, horsey, be free!

What a beautiful stallion. Amazing.

Horse, horse!

Kiss, kiss!

Put on some music!

On it, on it!

Let's go to the pool.

Come, Santi, come!

I'm coming, hold on, don't have fun without me.

Come on, Santi!

Coming!

Coming!

Come on!

Come here.

Luis!

I think he's upset.

Luis!

What's the matter? Careful!

People are sleeping, what's wrong with you?

Come in, come in.

No, I won't. Get out of the pool, Daniel.

Come on, get in.

Get out of the pool, people. Come on, Santiago.

I will if you get in.

Only if you get in. Only if you get in.

What do you want? What the hell, Santiago?

I want to be with you. I want you.

You don't want anyone.

No, I want...

You can't even stand yourself.

I want you!

No, no. You're sad, sad, Santiago.

You're so pathetic. Pathetic!

What did you say? Come here, you coward.

-What is it, asshole? -What's going on?

Get out of my house!

-Why do you hate me? -Get out of my house, Santiago!

I wasn't going to hit you.

Go away!

Why do you hate me? Why?

I wasn't going to hit you. Shut up, Mom!

I wasn't!

Get out. Leave.

Listen, I want to be with you.

I want to be with you. I want to be with you.

-Get out of my house! Out! -Stop!

Out!

Stop! He's upset!

Get out of my house.

Can't you see he's upset?

-Get out of here. -Leave him be.

Out of my house.

Luis.

Call a cab, Laila. I want to leave.

Go way. You're sick. You need help.

Get out, Luis. Go away, Luis. Don't touch him.

Hello, yes...

Don't call anyone.

Hello!

Leave, take care of it.

I don't want you here.

Blanca, can't you see...

Out!

Laila...

Calm down, Laila.

Santiago, please, look at me.

Look at me, Santi. Look at me.

I'm taking Laila to her boyfriend's,

she can't see you like this.

I'll call, don't worry.

Lai?

Lai?

Laila?

Lai, where are you? Pick up!

I need to talk to you, where are you?

I went a little crazy, but it's over, come back.

Hi!

You were locked in here.

Miss me?

How are you?

How are you, Nancy? How are you?

Are you a happy cat?

I'm a happy human.

Very happy.

Hi, Laila, how are you?

I left you a few messages.

Call me back if you can.

Bye.

You're messing up my life, Santiago.

Why did you take me to that house?

What's wrong? I don't get you.

You've been drinking again.

Do you want to end up like your dad?

Stop it, Mom.

You're an adult, Santiago.

Sit down.

Plus, I don't need a TV that big.

Replace it, I want the old one.

Sit, Mom.

I said replace it.

Take it away.

Stop it, Mom.

Take it away! Do it!

Look at it, this is so much better.

You need a doctor. You're not well.

Is Laila back?

No.

That girl can't stay with her boyfriend.

What will his family think about you!

I have to go.

I made milanesas, want some?

No, I'm busy.

Fine, go.

Bye, Mom.

Bye.

Cheers, cheers.

It's delicious. Is everything okay, guys?

Santi, the accountant called. He wants to talk.

I called him already.

We need to take this back.

Alex, here.

How are we doing, guys?

Are we having fun? Are you enjoying yourselves?

Guys, I didn't talk to you. We didn't talk all night. Sorry.

How are you?

Fine...

-Do you like it? -Yes.

That girl...

I'm sending a voice note.

Come, we're having a crisis.

Do you like surprises?

Yes. Maybe.

We all die of something.

There's no time to waste.

Drinks for everyone, on the house.

Here. Cheers.

Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas. Happy holidays.

What's going on here?

It's going to be a great year!

More than great.

Enjoy!

Come on!

You were amazing!

I though you weren't coming.

Of course I came.

You didn't have to get me all this stuff...

They're waiting for me.

When are you coming home?

I don't know.

Can we go out to dinner?

I made plans.

Okay, I have to go.

-Bye. -Bye.

Where are we going?

Santiago, how are you?

Hello.

So? You like it?

So much!

-I'm glad. -It's perfect.

Thank you so much.

I'm glad to see you. We need to talk.

I recommend people for an arts school in Montreal

and they asked me to send them a few names for this year

and I thought of Laila.

Now that she has her diploma, I think it's time.

We can find a way, I can help her.

What do you think?

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm great.

You know I love you, right? Do you?

Me too.

This night will be wild.

Leave it all behind,

get it all out once and for all, damn it!

Give it your all, okay? I mean it.

Hey!

Let's go to the docks and watch a scene!

Come on.

Where did you come from?

Where did you come from?

WELCOME TO THE DOCKS

There it is!

-Shut up! -Now!

I'm dying.

Were you a happy child?

What?

Were you a happy child?

What do you think?

-No clue. -Come on.

No clue...

Of course I wasn't. My childhood was crap.

But I try not to think about it,

and look to the future.

I'd love to have a house in the countryside.

I want peace. That's it. Peace.

I want to kiss you.

Do it.

To all the unhappy kids in the world.

To all of them!

Where in Chile are you from?

Valparaíso.

Come with me. I'm leaving tomorrow.

Leaving where?

Home.

What?

-Yup. -You live there?

Of course.

No, why? Why?

Why? No...

No...

Because that's home.

No more drinking.

No more?

-No. -Why not?

Because.

We want the power back!

We want the power back!

We want the power back!

We want the power back!

We want the power back!

We want the power back!

DEAR SANTA, BRING THE POWER BACK

I feel so connected to you.

I don't believe you.

It's true.

Sir, are you alright?

-Yes, yes, sorry. -Are you sure?

I'm great. Thanks.

You're back!

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Tell me.

It's silly.

I love silly things. What is it?

We went to a party yesterday. To celebrate.

We started dancing.

Eugenio pulled me close and kissed me.

Right then and there,

I knew I wanted to feel that forever.

Nothing would ever top that.

And then, Eugenio says he wants to talk.

He says he wants to see other women.

I get it, I like other guys sometimes...

But I'm not sure.

Then I started dancing again, but it wasn't the same.

Like you were looking at it from afar.

I guess, it's like...

I wanted to be just as happy, but I couldn't.

Do you know what you need?

What?

Let's do something, go out.

Let's go somewhere, come on. Let's go out.

-Dad. -What?

I'm going to Brazil.

I want to see Mom.

Do you even know where she's touring?

Yes, she called. She's in Rio with Gilberto.

She said they're staying for a while.

They asked me to join them for New Year's.

I want to take a few days...

Did something happen? Are they okay? Is she not well?

No.

Six months ago, she said the same thing and bailed.

Remember?

This time it's for real.

Okay, great.

It sounds like a great idea.

I'm coming too.

No, Dad, I'm going alone.

You can't. You don't know how.

I haven't seen her in three years.

I need her. Let me be with her once.

Think it through.

Don't take it lightly. Your mom is unpredictable.

There's no need. It's decided. She got me tickets.

I want to see her.

What will I do without you?

That's it...

Look at that.

You have to break it.

Swallow without chewing.

-All of it? -Yes.

How much is it?

-30 Reals. -30?

She's my kid. Isn't she pretty?

She is, she is.

My heart doesn't tire

Of hoping

That one day it'll have what it desires

My child-like heart

Is not just a memory

Of a woman's figure

That inhabited my dreams without saying goodbye

And turned my eyes into a sea of tears

My wandering heart

Wants to store the world inside of me

My wondering heart

Wants to store the world inside of me

My wondering heart

Wants to store the world

Inside of me

Gil...

Lucas.

-Are you good? -Good?

-Hello. -What a surprise.

Who are they?

Lucas, Gilberto's nephew, remember?

He heard you were coming and wanted to say hi.

And take you dancing or something.

I don't want to be with other people.

But Lucas is great.

I just want to be with you.

We can spend all day together tomorrow, okay?

There's so much I want to show you.

You also have to dance for me.

Hi, Mom, how are you?

It's 3:00 a.m., how do you think I am? Sleepy.

Just letting you know we got here safe. Laila is happy.

This is good for us. We're better now.

Go back to sleep.

What are your plans for New Year's?

Dinner at home. You're going to Laura's?

Yes, I guess.

Let's talk tomorrow, Mom.

You're not like your dad.

What does that mean?

You're different with Laila.

You take care of her.

Mom?

Okay, Santi, let's talk later. I'm very tired.

Bye.

Bye.

I spent last year in Berlin, alone...

Gilberto was busy and...

We were apart for a while.

At first it was fun, I went out, met people.

But then I went through a destructive streak.

I started drinking too much,

having sex with anyone,

waking up in strange places.

Gilberto would call and I'd lie,

like a teenager, like an idiot.

But I couldn't stop.

I didn't answer him for an entire week.

So he realized something was going on.

He came to get me, it took him three days to find me.

It got...

It got very ugly.

He wanted to take me home and I yelled at him,

pulled his hair, hit him hard.

He said I kept yelling,

'I've done something horrible. Something horrible.'

I don't know what I meant.

I guess I lost it, Santi.

I got really scared.

I asked to go to a hospital the next day.

I spent a week in there.

Once I was clean and calm,

I realized my issue was much deeper.

I wish I were an alcoholic, but no...

My problem is in here.

Something in here is never at peace.

Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you call?

I couldn't talk to anyone.

That's why we came here. To get away, rest.

But I can't do it, I don't know how.

Gilberto is so supportive.

But I don't know what will become of me.

I just don't.

Don't be so hard on yourself,

we are all trying to find ourselves

all the time.

There's a reason I'm here.

I'm standing on the edge too, but we can look ahead.

I'm not sure, Santi...

Everything will be fine.

Everything will be fine, you'll see.

Everything.

Hello, hi, Alex. I called you, what's up?

You wouldn't pick up, did you come in later?

Who double-booked?

No bookings can be canceled today.

Are you hungry?

Where is everyone?

Do whatever it takes, set up a table against a wall,

by the restroom, in the hall, anywhere.

No one is left behind.

Understand? Bye.

Where is everyone?

No idea, Gilberto went to get some stuff for tonight.

Your mom got a work call, but she'll be back.

What do you want?

She left?

It was mother-daughter day, she stood me up!

Work? Where?

I don't know, Laila. She left.

She'll be back tonight for the party, it's okay.

Don't you want anything to eat? Are you hungry?

Laila.

Laila, you and I can do something.

Go to the beach...

I don't want to.

We can stay in.

You can stay. You shouldn't have come.

Laila, Laila.

Open up, Laila.

-I'm leaving. -Where?

With Lucas and his friends.

When will you be back?

No idea.

-Hello. -Hello.

Are you lost in Rio?

On holiday.

Alone?

Yes.

Nice to meet you. I'm Silvio.

Santiago.

Are you enjoying Brazil?

Yes, very much.

The beaches are amazing. It's my first time.

The water is delightful.

I could spend all day in the ocean.

Pedro!

Do you have someone?

No.

The water is delightful.

Santiago, Pedro.

Santiago, my pleasure. Pedro.

Hello, Pedro.

Santiago is traveling alone.

Yes.

We're celebrating 'Réveillon'.

What's that?

New Year.

-Today. -New life.

Want to partake?

Okay, why not?

Why not?

One. Like this?

Yes.

And now I wait.

-No. -No?

It's amazing!

It's amazing.

It's amazing.

Love is a unique feeling.

The hardest one.

It demands your entire body, your entire being.

Don't you think?

Yes, you have to listen to your deepest desires.

Otherwise it's senseless.

All of it.

I love this man.

I follow him wherever he goes.

I've never felt like this about anyone.

Me neither.

I remember my first love.

I was eight. We were at the beach.

On vacation.

I kept seeing a man in his 30s, maybe 40s.

He'd sit nearby, but he never talked.

He was always alone.

I'd watch him...

Mesmerized.

He had a golden tan, a perfect smile

that drove me mad.

Like yours.

Of course, nothing happened.

But I couldn't stop thinking about him all summer.

It was a combination of lust,

desire, mystery, fear.

All of it, all at once.

You know?

I think I want to feel like that all the time.

You speak from the heart.

I feel good with you guys.

You're at peace.

Your body, your mind.

Now I can see you better.

Life is meaningless if you're not in love.

I overslept, right?

Yes. We have to go.

Need some help?

No, no. Thanks.

Santiago, don't you have somewhere to be?

Everything is ready. There's no rush.

And your kid? Won't she be worried?

I doubt it.

Santiago...

It's over.

The moment has passed.

We had sex, it was good, but it's over.

Easy, don't kick me out. I'm leaving.

I'm not.

You won't find here what you're looking for.

How do you know what that is?

God damn it...

-Hello! -Hi!

-What's up? -All good.

Santiago...

-Are you good? -Fine.

Everything okay?

All five of them?

Yes. Shall we?

Don't scare me!

Hello.

-Where were you? -The beach.

-The beach? -Yes, it was amazing.

-This is Julia. -Hi.

-This is Santiago. -Nice to meet you.

-Everything okay? -Yes.

-Are you enjoying it? -I am. So much, it's so...

Where's Eloisa?

She's not here. She's running late.

And Laila?

Locked in her room since I got here.

She went out with Lucas.

I haven't seen them. She was there when I got here.

Okay...

Lai?

Lai?

-Who am I? -Get off.

Get off me.

What? Now that we hang out with artists we're serious?

Stop it.

What did you guys do? How did it go?

Badly.

Where did you go?

Nowhere.

I stayed here alone.

You had fun, right?

How much have you had already? Hand it over.

Stop it.

I thought they weren't inviting people.

I don't even know them.

Let's eat.

Why? Eloisa isn't even here.

She's on her way.

No one cares about anything.

In Brazil, people feel Carnival is already here.

On December 31st, Carnival starts.

-It's Carnival. -It's Carnival.

You have to see Mangueira.

You have to take him to see Mangueira.

Let's go party. Come on, Santiago.

What 'patty'?

-Party. -Party.

I can party.

Yes, I know.

And also eat a patty at the party.

Julia, you like to confuse people.

It's amazing.

Yes, it is.

She wants to go.

-No. -I bet she does.

Five more days?

I don't know...

-Hello! -Hello!

-How are you? -Hi.

-Hi, Julia. -What's up?

-Hi. -Happy new year.

The table looks great, Gilberto.

I'm glad.

-Hi, honey. -Hi.

Traffic was awful. I was just stuck.

It was terrible.

I almost jumped out of a moving cab.

-It's New Year's Eve. -In Río de Janeiro.

-Want some? -Yes, please.

Where the hell were you?

Laila, what are your 'planos'?

'Plantos.'

Plans.

Plans. Now that you graduated.

Drinking wine.

Bravo.

I totally get it, enjoy yourself.

Enjoy.

Yeah, I don't like to overthink things.

I have no plans, I hate that question.

I get that all the time.

You're right, Laila.

You don't need anything. Youth is already wonderful.

Young and pretty, that's all it takes.

That's so superficial, Joao. My God!

Stop it, Laila.

Joao is trying to be nice.

-Stop it, stop it... -That's all.

Plus, it's true you're pretty.

'Pretty.' I hate that word.

I hate beauty and all it implies.

And I don't trust people who suck up to you.

What do you want? What am I supposed to say?

You say that, but don't ask how I'm doing.

Are you serious?

Yes.

I'd rather fake people see me as a whore,

so they don't have any expectations of me.

Sorry, I might be drunk, but this girl is awesome.

Laila, I want to know where you come from.

It's the best philosophy.

It's not mine, I guess.

It's stuff I read and just sticks.

After a while I don't know which ideas are mine.

It's all you, right?

The world is ours, Julia. You are pretty too.

You're my favorite person at this table.

-An award. -Thanks.

She won an award.

Not even my man tells me that.

Great food.

The world is...

It's great.

Laila, tell me.

Back home in Buenos Aires, do you have a 'novico'?

-What's the word? -'Boyfriend'...

-A boy, a companion... -Boyfriend.

'Boyfriend'?

No, I'm a total failure.

And I think that stuff needs to be taught.

No one ever taught me how to love.

No, you don't need to be taught.

Life teaches you, don't worry.

Look, Joao.

My dad is a drunk, who, three weeks ago...

Lai, Laila...

He was butt-naked yelling,

while his boyfriend was kicking him out of the house.

And Eloisa calls me after three years.

I get here, and she just leaves without telling me.

She's a depressed drunk too, did you know?

Yes, I'm a monster.

Life can be hard.

Eloisa, all I ever learned from you

is to be on my own.

The lady leaves again...

You're crossing the line. Shut up.

You're sick. Sick.

Look who's talking. The picture of perfection.

Liar!

Stop being so dramatic,

you're a drunk and you will regret this.

Please, that's what you do.

Shut the hell up!

-Shut up. -You're so fake.

-Shut up. -Nothing about you is true.

You think you're better than me? Do you?

That you're different?

At least I have fun. I choose to have fun.

-Having fun, right. -And enjoy life.

Having fun.

We're all having the best time here.

Can't you see no one is okay here?

-Can't you? -You're fake, selfish.

You don't see that everything would be a lot easier

if you didn't exist.

I'm here with you.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six

five, four,

three, two, one.

Happy New Year!

LAURA, MOM'S NEIGHBOR

That's it, people.

What do you mean, Laura?

I don't get it.

What do you mean?

Laila!

Laila!

Laila!

Laila!

Hi.

Happy New Year, Luis.

Happy New Year.

I'm in Brazil.

Okay, Santi, I'm busy.

She's dead, Luis.

Who?

My mom.

God.

I'm not okay, Luis.

I screwed up and it's over, time's run out.

I lied, I deceived you. I deceived myself.

I can't help you, Santiago, sorry.

I'm always running from something.

But I'm dead scared.

Please, Santiago, call a friend or something.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Truly.

But I can't be there for you anymore.

He won't stop looking at you.

He likes you.

This city is full of faggots. They are everywhere.

Look at him.

He's alone on New Year's.

He craves attention.

Get a grip.

Faggots love that.

Do you guys know me?

No.

No?

Why are you looking at me?

You don't know anything about me and you stare at me?

Who do you think you are?

Calm down, no one's talking to you.

No one?

You're judging me.

The world is crap because of people like you.

Where's my kid?

Where is she? Where's my kid?

Laura, take the TV.

-Me? -Yes, you.

You could sell it, it looks new.

Really, take it.

Just take it.

Look what I found.

What is it?

Can I have them?

She was so crazy.

This is the summer Dad died.

He said that was the happiest he'd ever been.

Did you know?

No.

No one talks about Grandpa.

There's not much to say.

He never talked to me.

But you and I are not like that, right?

No. Just the opposite.

Your grandma was so strong.

Hi, how are you?

-Hello. -Hi.

How are you? Great, right? She flies out tomorrow?

Yes.

These are the papers for the school.

Did you take care of everything else?

Yes, thanks.

If you need anything, just ask, okay? Bye.

Bye.

Do you want to crack coconuts open?

What about the kids?

Later. I'm hungry. Would you make me something?

Sure.

When you come visit,

I want you to get off the plane like this.

Wearing this.

Let me.

I'm sure living with those Canadians

won't be as fun as living with me.

Stop it, Dad.

Okay.

We forgot about Nancy.

Poor thing, you can't leave her.

Like a dog.

-Leave her be. Poor dear. -In a cage. Get the suitcase.

Stop it.

You can take her, really. We can get a cage.

I can call the airline and ask.

Let me do it, it's not that hard.

-Stop it, Dad. -It'll be quick.

What's going on? Calm down. What is it?

I don't want you to go.

We talked about it. You said...

I don't know what I said.

Let's go.

No, I don't want you to come.

Tell me you'll be okay.

I'll be okay.

Come on.

Go on then.

Bye.

What's all this?

It's my niece's birthday.

Go wait in the balcony. What do you want?

Crash into the wall.

Again? Let's see if I can get in...

Do it or I'll be mad.

Do it! Do it!

Again?

I just have one happy memory of my Dad.

Just the one.

A hug on a roller coaster.

I was very little.

I can't remember who hugged who first...

It was about fear, don't think it was...

My father hated me, he always did.

He'd look at me and say,

'No one will ever love you, because you're broken.'

'Broken,' he'd say.

When I was 15, he kicked me out.

You may not be great or brilliant,

and you're probably not the best father,

but at least you and your kid have fun and love each other.

That's what matters.

You can't keep thinking what could have been

or what you are going to be.

You have to think about the present. Right now.

I don't know what I'm doing. I have no clue.

It's just a blank void.

Okay, that's great.

What is?

Not knowing what's next.

That's what makes things interesting.

I'm standing at the edge and the view is amazing.

You can do anything. Everything is possible.

You're amazing, I always knew that.

I'm having a good day.

Uncle, uncle...

Okay, let's go.

Excuse me.

Do you want the big one?

Do you still remember me? Are you boarding now?

I just wanted to say

that I know I hurt what I love most in life,

meaning you,

and I don't get why.

I'm sorry.

I am so proud of the person you've become.

Nothing makes sense without you.

You're all that matters

and I'm here for you.

Always.

When we meet again,

we will dance all the time,

non-stop.

I'm here.

Cake! Cake!

Happy birthday to you!

Let's blow it!

Take it away!

No, no!

Help!

Help!

Help!

ALMOST IN LOVE
