And they lived with their parents,

until one day their father went

to the forest to hunt... and never returned.

So the two children, Hansel and Gretel,

were left alone vith their mother.

Butthe mother loved the father so much,

that she took no notice of the children.

She gave them no water, she gave them no food,

she didn't keep them warm at night.

She didn't care for them, she didn't read them stories.

And the children had to love each other,

and take good care of each other.

They got thinner and thinner, andhhungrier and hungrier,

and more and more in need of affection,

so both of them decided to leave home

and look for something wonderful,

andsomeoneto give them the love

they weren't being given.

You sat down for a piss, it dribbled at first,

but then it came out.

Howit hit the water.

Then camethefeces,

The shame, the shame I made you feel.

You squeezed softly, very softly,

Do you want me to tell you what's wrong with me?

Yes.

I have a tumor on the left hemisphere of my head.

It began the size of a lentil, and nowit's a fist.

It's spreading through my head, spreading through my head.

1 feel mytumor as a sixth sense.

I am aproduct of my tumor.

I seel am not capable of being an artist as I wanted to be.

Don't touch me because if you do I will pass my tumor onto you,

and you will become ill like me, and see the light like me.

You WILL seethe light and you won't have to live in fear...

My brother cameto see me.

He was in a bad way. I couldn't see it.

He needed me there, and! wasn't.

I was all he had.

The next time I saw him he was dead.

It hurts meto look at you.

GIVING IN

I thinkif you hadn't come,

I would have simply thrown myself to the ground,

and died.

Look.

l've spent almost a year in a process of

getting myself off everything.

Incredible, terrifying,

a nightmare.

Really, you can't imagine.

Was it worth it?

Well, l'd like to think so.

Though for me, almost nothing seems worth it.

You're worthit.

There's a writer who talks about something called epic legend.

Things happen, and in such a way,

but we tell � story and that is epic legend.

1 thinkthe story 1tell myself...

is about a girl.

andthe father is evil because.

he hurts the girl.

And...

He touches her.

The girl only thought and dreamt of

hurting this father, until.

the father died,

but not how. everyone thought,

from a sudden heart attack, with no explanation.

Did you kill him?

I was always jealous of your brother.

I want youto kiss me.

My love.

Stop, don't move.

Don't breathe.

Everything will be all right, won't it?

Everything will be all right.

Not alone again.

You're not alone.

You're not alone.

Death.

l'm going to come back.

Please.

Please.

Each time you embrace me I feel you.

Eachtime getting smaller; eachtime getting more fragile.

But with your death, something newis born.

The necessity to live -

to live and leave behind the guilt, the ghosts;

and the fear;

Forever.

I will miss you very much.
