SWEETS FROM A STRANGER

I like dogs, what's
yours called?

Soliciting. I live
nearby, shall we?

It's lively, huh?

Yeah, love, and it'll be a hundred
thousand lire if you want to keep it.

It's extra, of course. It's a
virgin VHS tape, you know.

What's your name?

Romina Power.

- Make room for me.
- Isn't it a bit cramped?

I only use my bed for sleeping.

Come on, hurry up, what
if that guy comes back?

I don't want to let anyone
into my house anymore.

I hope he won't
remember how to find it.

He looked a little
absent-minded.

Quiet, doggie! They can charge
you as my accomplice, you know?

Shit! Is there anyone in
this godforsaken place?!

What am I going to do now?!

Help! Over here!
Somebody's trying to kill me!

What do you want from
me? I never hurt anyone!

You want to hurt me
because I'm a whore!

Because I'm just a whore!

PROSTITUTE MURDERED - ROBBERY RULED OUT,
THE VICTIM HAD THREE MILLION IN HER PURSE

Get in.

Close the door.

This has been our turf
long before you showed up.

I get it. What do you want?

Either you go somewhere
else or you play by our rules.

What rules?

Here. Starting tomorrow
you will be at our service.

- It depends on what you mean.
- That's for us to decide.

We wouldn't be so nice if you were
one of those weirdoes in women's clothes.

One of those hundred
thousand lire bills is fake.

You should be more careful, you
definitely need some friends around here.

- Why back so early?
- How come you're still up?

Let me see that.

"I often cry when no one
sees me, and today..."

Give it back! You
can't do that to me!

I'm your mother, I
can do anything I want.

Let's see...

"My Latin teacher noticed that
my eyes were red from crying."

"The teachers want
to talk to my mother."

"I can already imagine how
many lies she will make up."

"My mother works as a prostitute
every night, and I am always alone."

"I'm not afraid of the
dark like my classmates,

becausethey
are still Children."

Have you written more pages of
this crap? Where are you hiding them?

You should write that
your classmates envy you...

because you always
have the most beautiful things!

If you don't like your mother's job,
then you can say goodbye to all this stuff!

It's too easy to lecture me
when you exploit my money!

You aren't that
different, you know.

All paid. Gas, electricity
and even the fine.

That's the remaining
money. Count it, Bruna.

Let's see...

You'll always earn less
than me, and you know why?

You're too beautiful,
you scare men away.

I also used to scare
them back in the day.

Would you like a
cup of fresh coffee?

No, thanks, I'm in a hurry.

- Who is it?
- Your little slave.

I'm not coming up, I'll
put the stuff in the elevator.

- Who are you?
- lsa's daughter.

Here's the receipt.

Your mother wants me to
take you home right away.

I always get super
hungry after class.

The deal is I only
have to take you home.

Come on, it won't take long.

- Please, hurry up.
- Why don't you get one?

- It's a banana shake.
- Why don't you get a move on?

You seem different
from the others.

- What others?
- The ones before you.

You still haven't
told me your name.

I'm Lena.

- Is that your real name?
- A diminutive.

In that case I want
you to call me Vale,

it's the diminutive
of Valentina.

And mine of Marilena.

I gotta go to the toilet.

Hop on the bike,
we'll pay you double.

Yeah, but don't
expect any discounts.

I'll sit in the middle, okay?

Hey, this is a woman!
What's going on here?

I'm not into any
lesbian stuff! Let me off!

We're doing a treasure hunt,
our quest's about finding a hooker!

Stop the bike, I said!

- I can't see a thing!
- Stop the bike!

I don't give a damn about
your treasure hunt, stop the bike!

Come on, we'd have paid
you extra! It's just a game!

I don't get paid to play games.

When I want to
play, I do it for free.

Wait!

Go home.

I want to tell you something!

I'm sorry. My apologies.

I know her!

It's Bruna!

My god...

She's still alive!
Maybe we can save her!

She's trying to say something.

Try to listen to
what she's saying.

I've got a wounded person
in the car, I need help!

Help me, please!

A wounded person in the car!

She's lost a lot of blood!

She's dead.

Miss, wait, where
are you going? Stop!

- I got nothing to do with this!
- Stop! Where are you going?!

Done.

Have you seen those eye shadows?

BRUNA'S LAST NIGHT PIECED
TOGETHER UP TO HALF PAST MIDNIGHT-

A MANIAC MAY BE THE CULPRIT

- Sorry?
- I asked if you've seen those eye shadows.

They would look just
lovely with your eyes.

Yes, I saw them.

Could you do me a favor, Angela?

It's for tomorrow morning,
before your shift here.

I don't know if you'll accept,
but I want to ask you anyway.

You know what my
profession is, don't you?

I'm sure you've heard
some comments.

Poor woman, she never
managed to save a dime.

I'm lucky to have a
house and some savings.

She didn't have anything.

We had lost touch, and
now I find her like this.

- Is this enough for your trouble?
- No, leave it.

Take it, please.
Don't be foolish.

- Come on.
- No.

Truth be told, I also
have a favor to ask.

Sorry about the cigarette.

- I'm Katia.
- Hi.

I'm Monica.

Stella.

We are raising some money.

Here. Me and Bruna
were very close once.

No, she's not a colleague.

Requiem aeternam dona eis,
Domine, et Iux perpetua luceat eis.

Requiescant in pace. Amen.

O Lord, who art
mercy and forgiveness,

we beseech thee for the
soul of thy servant Bruna,

who today by thy
will has left this world.

Do not deliver her into
the hands of the enemy,

do not forget her in death,

but command the holy angels to
welcome and lead her to Heaven,

for in you she has
hoped and believed.

- No relatives came.
- Good. It all stays in the family.

- The second victim.
- Maybe it's just a coincidence.

We're all gonna
end up dead, Nadine.

We gotta be more
careful at work.

It's not like going
to the office, after all.

That's just what we needed,
as if HIV wasn't bad enough...

I'll be fired at the
end of the month.

Why? You're so
good with the clients.

Yes, but the owner is holding
onto more than half of our tips.

I tried to complain, and then...

What kind of favor did
you want to ask me?

Requiem aeternam dona eis,
Domine, et Iux perpetua luceat eis.

Requiescant in pace. Amen.

Could you introduce
me to somebody?

Are you sure about this?

Yes.

Look benevolently, O Lord,

upon the gifts we present to you
for the soul of your servant Bruna.

Don't be so formal with me
then, we're on friendly terms.

I had a horrible dream, Monica.

Relax, we're safe.

We work at home
and there's two of us.

Besides, we have a
respectable clientele.

Well-known fellows
with credit cards.

It's like owning an
exclusive, members-only club.

Right. They need a card to
screw us, money isn't enough.

And the killer
hasn't got our card.

As long as we don't start
gifting free passes around.

We're a protected species,
but what about the others?

They're facing extinction.

From now on, we will keep the
bedroom door ajar during work.

Don't you agree?

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

My hotel is for honest girls!
Well-to-do family women! Students!

HOTEL

I haven't seen you before.
How did you end up here?

I won an open competitive exam.

I see you're from out of town. I
have to write down your details.

You mean keeping a tab on me?

Not yet, but the next time you
will be arrested for prostitution.

Then we'll keep a
tab on you for good.

You know anything about the
maniac killing your colleagues?

She's still alive!
Maybe we can save her!

She's trying to say something.
Try to listen to what she's saying.

No, nothing.

We're all meeting
here tomorrow evening.

We need to talk about this.

The killer will strike again.

The risks of
being in this trade.

We are laid down both when we
are alive and when we are dead.

This phone call
was pretty pointless.

Listen, I have a normal life as
well, and it's important to me.

I'd rather think about it.

Me and Monica have a private life, too.
She's here listening to our conversation.

Maybe we even value ours
more than you value yours.

- Then you understand me.
- No.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- I brought him.
- You're a real friend.

Partner, more like. I get
half of whatever he gives you.

The music changes but
the tune stays the same.

It's a tough life
for everyone, dear.

If he goes with you he
can't be with me, after all.

He'll be with me less often, at
the very least. It's a financial loss.

I even thought about the rates.

I believe 300k lire for each
meeting is more than enough.

You should be satisfied.

- Well?
- All right, we got a deal.

Okay-

Don't make me look bad. See you.

- Stella told me but I didn't believe her.
- Stella said it'll be 300k lire.

What's the money for?
A fur coat? Jewelry?

No, my husband sells
jewelry from home.

He's not doing great,
even if it's tax-free.

So he agrees with
what you're doing?

Don't be gross.

Where are we going?

- Now?
- Yeah, I want to get this over with.

I don't know. My place, maybe?

Don't worry, I'll be gentle.

I'll help you.

Looks like we're
already quite friendly.

Let's be less formal.

"City authorities applauded
the work of the police."

"Although the culprit
has not yet been arrested,

the police work has served to
remove many suspicious people...

and women of ill
repute from the city."

They're all against us.

The maniac is killing us,
the papers are turning on us,

and the police are picking
on us instead of protecting us.

They need to stop busting
our balls even in the workplace.

They took my driving
license away two nights ago.

Whoever is in my same
situation, raise your hand.

Almost everyone here.

Even without my car I
can still take a cab to work.

Too bad I can't use a
meter in my line of work.

I take the bus,
quit complaining.

If at least this mess would help
get that son of a bitch caught...

- Watch your words!
- Sorry. I meant son of a gun.

If he had killed some traffic
cops or some schoolteachers...

they would have already
put a bounty on his head.

We are public
servants as well, after all.

We're being discriminated,
pure and simple.

This filthy society treats sex workers
in a horrible way, even when they die.

We're treated like
shit, that's a fact.

But they need us, though.

Sit down with us, come on.

Ladies, I'm done with my cleaning
duties, see you on Thursday.

Try to smoke less, for god's
sake, people have to work here.

Merci beaucoup, Germana.

She's right, girls,
try to smoke less.

We gotta get back to work.

This situation has lowered
the number of customers,

I don't know if you
have noticed it too.

My daughter here
can confirm it. Go on.

Yes, that's right, a decrease
of at least sixty percent.

You noticed that, huh?

Customers are as
afraid as we are.

This maniac will ruin us, we have a hard
enough time competing with trans folks.

This murderer should
be sentenced to death!

I have a hard time working.

I always had great self-confidence,
thought I was prepared for anything.

But now we're
always on high alert.

Before all this I would tell
myself I wasn't a whore,

I could switch my
brain off like that.

Now I just can't and
it all seems so filthy.

And you only realize this now!

I bet many others in here
would say the same thing!

It is easy for you ladies to
work in your warm homes,

or in your nice cars
and hotel rooms.

I'm raising two daughters, and I do
this filthy job because we need a living.

Maybe tonight, or perhaps tomorrow,
I'll find myself alone, in the dark,

with the killer standing
next to my freezing bum!

That's all I wanted to say.

Hold it, where are you going?

If we were little girls we could
refuse sweets from a stranger,

but we aren't little girls.

We need to accept
sweets from strangers.

And any stranger
could be the killer.

So far he is beating us.

We have to make
his life difficult.

So far he has targeted the
most isolated and helpless girls,

but we need to organize and find a new
way of working and spreading information.

One for all and all for one!

This thing is called
CS-2, it's French-made.

It sends you to sleep instantly.

It looks like a deodorant, huh?

Keep your mouths shut, it's illegal
here, you could get four years in the can.

I know where to get it, each can
costs 70k lire. You all want one?

- Yeah!
- Yes.

Save one for me.

License plate K54914.

K54914.

It's 12:20 a.m., if she's not back in
ten whoever is free goes looking for her.

Imagine if we were always
so organized and united.

I mean, we could even
start a political party.

Hammer, sickle and tricks.

We didn't get along
too well in the past,

but now we offer you
to live together in peace.

You can come out, we
won't do anything mean!

From now on you can be as
much of a voyeur as you want!

Knowing you're there
makes us feel safe!

Tell your friends everywhere!
We're all okay with it!

What do you say? Are we
forming this holy alliance or not?

And to prove we're
being serious...

Keep an eye on us but don't
forget to look out for the killer!

You have permission
to engage if you see him!

Does it Still hurt?

I too was afraid of the
dentist when I was little.

- You say that as if it was long ago.
- It was long ago.

Don't look, but
you've got an admirer.

I have something
to tell you, Vale.

I took you to the dentist today,

but this is the last errand
I'm doing for your mother.

- Tell her.
- What is it? Are you rebelling?

Have you decided to
change your life, maybe?

I know, you don't feel like
talking to a kid about this stuff.

I understand it, you're scared.

Scared of what?

I'm talking about
that killer on the loose.

You said I'm different
from the others.

I know what you're thinking.

I should be fooling around with my friends
instead of talking about this stuff.

I don't have any, my mother
doesn't want me to see them anymore.

- I can't speak to anyone.
- Why?

She says they're beneath me.

She only wants me to hang
out with a very select people.

And now you're leaving too.

Go away, disappear
and leave me alone.

- Vale, listen...
- Waiter, the bill!

- I'll pay.
- It's my birthday, not yours.

Do you know what
this girl's job is?

No.

Vale, please...

She's a...

A babysitter. Was.

Vale!

Say, Angela, what's your
husband's name again?

You know already, I told you.

There are four pages of people
with the same name in the phone book.

What are you looking for?

Where did you go
before coming here?

- To pay an IOU.
- How? With your body?

You know I only do it with you.

Likewise.

I enjoy paying you because I
know you're not that kind of girl.

Remember that, Angela.

Gimme another.

I'd stay off the booze
for a bit if I were you.

Come on, be a dear
and give me another one.

- You never change, do you?
- Nope!

Nope.

Ineverchange.

You know hookers are
printing out flyers nowadays?

Remember Workers' Power?
More like Hookers' Power!

It says we should stick together,
watch each other's backs.

Nobody can ever teach me
a thing about being a whore.

Not even whores themselves.

I've been in this trade all my life
because I don't want to rely on anyone.

And to be free, yessir. Free.

If the richest man in the world
wanted to have sex with me...

in exchange
for all his money,

I would turn the fellow
down if I didn't like him.

And nobody could force
me to accept, understood?

Time to return to
my daily battlefield.

I'm not a young girl
anymore, you know!

Gave you a real scare, huh?

It must have been an iguana.

You know, those big
lizards from South America.

Saw them in a lot of movies.

They sneak into ships and
hide in cargoes of lumber.

To do what, I dunno.

When they get here
they all die or, worse,

they end up with
assholes like those people.

Was that lizard
alive, by the way?

Did you see it?

Hey! I'm asking
you if you saw it.

Well? Am I not
worthy of an answer?

Hey! Who do you think you are?!

I've promised him so many
times he's the only one I'm seeing.

He's jealous of my husband.

He even slapped me.

Was he like that with you?

I've never been married.

I don't know what to do anymore.

Stop seeing him.
Clients come and go.

Could you introduce
me to another one?

- No, I won't give you any more clients.
- Why?

Because you haven't understood anything.
You're not what you think you are.

- You're just his lover.
- But he always gives me money.

Lots of it! Good for that, because my
husband's jewelry business is tanking.

You just don't get it, do you?

You just don't understand.

When a man takes off his trousers,
sometimes he loses some change.

I'm a bit more
experienced than you.

Good evening.

Now that the lady has arrived we
have reached a quorum for the meeting.

The administrator has determined
that the total sum of the participants'...

ownership thousandths exceeds half
plus one, and declares the meeting open.

The chairman and secretary of this meeting
are Mr. Franceschi and Mrs. Onorati.

The topic of the day is
the budget for the new year,

extraordinary work on the
building and miscellaneous matters.

Before starting our meeting, please
leave an offering for this church,

to repay them for
the inconvenience,

the electric bill and the
use of chairs, thank you.

Madam, we have a
complaint to make.

A more serious matter than the
time I left the pram in the hallway.

We in the building know about the
kind of visitors you receive at night.

- Until now we've tolerated it, but...
- We're scared!

Yes, we honest
people are scared.

What if one of the men
you meet is the killer?

Quit the trade or do your
tricks somewhere else.

You have no right to say these
things! It's my life, not yours.

Put yourself in our shoes! You're
bringing the killer into our homes!

You ugly, mean lady!

Skank!

Thanks.

Hello? Hello?

- You the girl from the ad?
- Yeah, that's me.

- You free tonight?
- It depends.

- I'm at the Park Hotel, room 332.
- Give me a second.

Park Hotel, 332...

THE PROSTITUTES RESPOND TO THE KILLINGS
BY FORMING A SELF-DEFENSE COMMITTEE

What about eleven?

- Will you be alone?
- Yes, why?

You better be, or you can forget about
all those things you'll want me to do.

You'll also pay my cab ride.

"My child, I know it gives you great
gratification to work as a stewardess,

forgive me if the
spelling is wrong.

I know you like to be
on the go all the time,

but I hope you can also
take care of yourself.

- Why don't you send me..."
- "Why don't you send me..."

What are you doing
here? What do you want?

Judging from the ad you put in this
magazine you work a lot with your phone.

All people who work
with a telephone...

are required by law to
subscribe to a business contract.

You'll be given a new number,
for an initial charge of 500k lire.

I'll show you a chart
concerning future payments.

You weren't so
formal moments ago.

It was you who called
about the Park Hotel?

You are not the only one with, shall
we say, an atypical professional situation.

You cannot imagine how
complicated it is to keep track of you all.

Most of you are transvestites.

They pay triple
the price, I bet.

The phone isn't mine, it
belongs to this residence.

You seem very smart.

It's easy to come to an
agreement among intelligent people.

Of course.

Want to fuck?

You understand
everything on the fly.

You're so beautiful.

How come you agreed to the hotel
meeting but you won't do anything here?

Because it isn't eleven yet!

I don't know if he's the maniac
but I took his wallet anyway.

Let me see.

- Why did you come?
- There was nothing on TV.

- Yeah, this phone guy came to me as well.
- What did you do?

I acted like an idiot, as usual.

- Anna.
- It's Isa.

- How's your daughter Vale?
- Fine, and you?

Send her my
regards if you see her.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Why? Can't I
greet an old friend?

Shake hands.
We need to be united.

Enough of these whorish games.

Calm down, everybody,
or we'll end up too nice.

The phone guy is searching
for girls who work with ads.

If a girl tries to say no
she might end up dead.

No, bad theory. The
victims didn't work by phone.

- Besides, he's a Pisces.
- I got something else to tell you.

It was me who found Bruna,
the one killed in her car.

I was with this guy,
she was still alive and...

Hold it.

- I need to turn over the tape.
- We record everything here.

- Can I?
- Please.

She was trying to say something.

I think the guy
might have heard it.

I didn't, and then we got lost.

I know I should have
told you earlier, but...

What about the guy
who was with you?

I don't know, a boy who
looked about twenty-five.

Longish black hair,
beard and an earring.

Medium height. Your
average guy, really.

Come here.

Sit down.

I went to art school,
I can draw a portrait.

I know a police officer.

He did me a favor once and
now I do him one every month.

Last time he told me
something confidential.

The police have
not said this publicly,

but the killer uses a nasty
device to ravage the bodies.

It's a captive bolt pistol.

- What are we, animals?
- Yes, that's right!

Cows! That's what
he thinks we are!

Even cows can get sick and
tired of being fodder for slaughter.

We are many, we have
eyes and ears everywhere.

I've been trying to think
who this butcher could be.

I think it's someone with
a shallow, bland sex life.

Someone who seeks
prostitutes only to talk to them.

Maybe somebody who kills
because he feels lonely and derided.

I forgot to introduce myself.

My name's Stella,
we're in the same trade.

Police can't catch this
killer by themselves.

What I'm trying to say is that we're
the only ones who can find this person.

And find him we must.

I A touch of red...

I Vanity...

I She will be jealous
of me, without pity...

I The sounds of the
yesses and the few no's...

I I will leave them in
this somewhat dark room...

I Just like one
leaves an idea...

I It melts and
fades away, ever more,

I the black coffee
taste that you had...

I We are that kind of women,

I we are made of real poetry,

I you can't tell us no...

I We are that kind of women...

I When I'll look at
myself in the mirror,

I and this empire of
ideas won't be no more,

I I won't be such
a slave to myself,

I and I won't sell
myself to any king.

I I won't sell
myself to any king...

I We are that kind of women...

- Mind if I talk?
- No, why should I?

Let's just talk, then.

I We are that kind of women...

Let me show you a picture of my family
trip to the zoological gardens and...

That's all I'm going to ask, I just want
to photograph you with this infrared film.

Yeah, like this.

No, no, wait, don't move!

- You're not taking your clothes off?
- Twenty bucks extra.

- Is that a whistle?
- Yeah, it brings me good luck.

I want a kiss too.

I'll pay you double.

Come here...

You're handsome, you know?
I'd really like to make love to you.

Come on, try to relax a little.

We get out of the car, lie on the
grass and make love until morning.

- What do you say, huh?
- But it's damp.

I have a blanket, see?

All right.

But I'll take your shoes
so you won't run away.

Is it Mardi Gras already?

You can't come in
here with a mask on.

Relax, Vittorio, I'll
keep an eye on them.

Follow me.

This is a list of license plates
of suspicious individuals.

And here are their
ID cards, passports,

social security numbers
and driver's licenses.

As you can see, we also
confiscate documents, Commissioner.

- Inspector.
- The owners are real pervs.

It's all written here
in these reports.

Good, er, carry on
with what you're doing.

Did you also get
their fingerprints?

That won't be a problem,
they're always touching us.

Those spray cans
you're using are illegal.

- We can turn a blind eye.
- Great.

Can I have one? I might
need it when I go out at night.

- For work, of course.
- Yes, sure. We'll give you one.

Thanks.

The telephone guy is...

The telephone guy is
clean, I had him questioned.

He was at home with his wife
when the murders took place.

The wife confirmed it, then she
took her suitcase, kids and fur coat...

and left the guy for good.

We'll welcome her with open
arms, there's plenty of work.

The husband had nothing to do with
the phone company, he's just a nutcase.

Sure, but who knows
how many free rides he got.

He should be castrated.

Well, we're done here.

We've got other things
to do, Commissioner.

Inspector. Inspector Giusti.

Good bye.

Wait a minute.

I was wondering if you'd
be willing to help me out...

with some other
cases in the future?

We've made peace with peeping toms, I don't
see why we can't do the same with cops.

- But we demand our licenses back.
- And you'll cancel any charges against us.

Well said.

I'll get it.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

I know it's late, but
is your wife home?

Why do you need to see her?

Your wife visits me from time to
time, and I pay her good money.

She sold me something, she's
got a great business sense.

A gemstone ring.

I'm paying it in advance installments
and she comes to collect the money.

- Is this true, Angela?
- Yes, it's true.

I wanted to surprise you.

I'm here to collect it.

I followed you the other night.

And you know why I did it.

What are you
going to do with this?

Return it?

No. It's already paid for.

Perhaps I am the only woman who
got married first and then engaged.

Scrap that perhaps.

There's someone there.

Who could it be?

He's leaving. The usual
peeping tom, I guess.

Or the murderer who
goes around killing hookers.

You aren't one of them.

Listen, Angela, I want
you to come live with me.

I'll think of everything.

I will take care of
your daughter as well.

Well?

- What's your name?
- Octav.

You look like a
regular little tramp.

I'm Nadine, because people either
show me the money or they get nada.

What zodiac sign are you?

Give me those.

Here, take this.

Listen, you'll go home soon.

I'll call you a taxi.

You tell the cabbie your address
and give him this money, understood?

Remember, you don't know me.

You've never seen
me, understood?

Understood?

This looks like you.

I want to know what the girl
you found half dead told you.

Could you take a
quick break, Monica?

I have something
important to tell you.

What's the matter?
Another murder?

No, Nadine found the
witness. You're a skilled artist.

She's on the phone.

I'll be right back,
mon petit Chou.

Don't untie yourself,
it won't take a minute.

D 'aCCo rd ?

Are you a police officer?

What are you still doing
here? I told you to go home.

Scram! Skedaddlel

Get out of my sight!

- Hello? Hello, Nadine?
- Got the news?

No, Katia wants you to tell
me. Make up your mind already!

I'll let him tell you.

S... St...

Stella...

- Stella?
- That's absurd!

Hello? You girls prefer
to remain anonymous.

You didn't even show your face,
but I managed to track you down.

How and why, you ask?

Because I'm Inspector Giusti!

Stella, one of these days I'd
like to take you out to dinner.

I'd really like it, I hope
you'll accept. Over and out.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello? Who's calling?

You don't know me, I found
your number in that magazine.

I also work with the telephone.

What do you want from me?

My friend is sick and I don't
want to meet those two guys alone.

It'll be worth it, they'll
pay us handsomely.

Do you want me to
take your friend's place?

These are difficult times,
we gotta help each other.

Where's this place?

Two Towers Residence,
we'll meet at one.

We should meet first.

- You know where the Commodore is?
- Yeah.

- What about noon?
- All right.

- What's your name?
- Silvia.

Silvia...

- Hello.
- I finally get to see you maskless.

- Maybe you're wearing one today.
- I don't need one.

Let me give you a kiss,
it'll look more natural.

I don't think so.

You're wasting your time
if you're trying to court me.

I don't have a hope, do I?

Don't say that, I'm not
a difficult kind of girl.

Actually, it's all much
more complicated with you.

We've put ourselves
in that guy's hands.

Couldn't we have chosen
another policeman?

Look, you know the
guy, can we trust him?

Of course! I don't know what
you've got against Maurizio...

I mean, against
Inspector Giusti.

Now I get it...

You'd like to screw him,
but he doesn't comply.

Get it, girls?

That's why she's
dressed like this! Look!

She's trying to wake him up!

My, such a slutty attitude!

Mom, it's been a while
since I wanted to tell you this.

I am not a stewardess
like you think.

I am very obliging, but not in
the way you would understand it.

- Do you know that guy?
- No.

What's a beautiful girl like you doing
here all alone? Can I offer you something?

Call me tonight,
here's my number.

Hey, I'm gonna call you
for real! I'll totally do it!

How did you find me? How
did you get my phone number?

I played it smart, I didn't
even know your name.

It was that thing about charges
you said at the police station.

I did a little bit of
digging into your past.

I recognized you straight
away, even with short hair.

The short-haired me
doesn't exist anymore.

You seem very
interested in me...

- Does it mean I'm a suspect?
- Of course not.

Only a nutter would take
seriously what that boy said.

My hat's off to you, by the way. I
already congratulated the others.

If only we were as
organized as you!

Well, you act a bit like a
nutter from time to time.

- Soon it will all be over.
- Don't change the subject.

- Why not? It's your work.
- Indeed.

I'd like to talk about
other things with you.

All right, but I don't want to talk
about love. That's my line of work!

- Got any children?
- No.

And I never will.

I had myself sterilized.

You sound cynical, but you're
just struggling with shyness.

- Am I shy?
- Yes.

You're right, but
nobody ever notices.

Well, I'm a little
bit shy myself.

I'm painfully shy when
I'm with you, to be fair.

Why? You see me as a
veteran in the ways of the world?

No, quite the opposite.

More like a beginner.

Careful, you might get burned.

- Ten past noon.
- That's typical female tardiness.

I would not be so sure that
the voice on the phone...

was a woman's just
because it sounded feminine.

Who said we're sure? We've got plenty
of friends whose sex is hard to tell!

- I recognize them straightaway.
- Do you?

- That's why you couldn't tell about me?
- You...?

- Really?
- You betcha!

Hi, Lena.

- How are you?
- What are you doing here?

I was passing by and I
saw you from outside.

- I wanted to say hello.
- Don't sit down. It isn't the right time.

We could get an ice
cream, for old times' sake.

Vale, I'm waiting for someone important,
we'll get an ice cream another time.

Just a minute. I'll leave
when he arrives, okay?

Bad timing. Shall I tell
her to send the kid away?

No, maybe it's better like this.

It makes it seem more
innocent and normal.

As long as the caller shows up.

Even little girls are
getting in our way.

- Who is she?
- A pain in the ass, I guess.

Monica, I just can't
believe you actually are...

Where do you think she learned
those few words of French?

In Casablanca.

You're pulling my leg!

Let's tell her the truth.

- Why don't you go to the tennis club?
- I've already been.

But you can't stay here!
This isn't a place for children.

Who's she?

The daughter of Isa,
a woman in our trade.

I don't think this Silvia is
coming. It's all so complicated.

Hello?

Who? I'm afraid you
got the wrong number.

No problem.

I'm going to see what the
kid's doing in the bathroom.

- What about us?
- You call the shots.

Let's go, then.

- Shall we?
- I'm staying, I have an appointment.

- I see.
- No, it's not what you're thinking.

I'm meeting a man
looking to buy a home.

I'm selling mine
with great urgency.

Here he is.

Vale?

Vale?

- Vale, are you there?
- Yes.

How are you?

I'm sorry about what happened
before, I didn't mean to upset you.

I'm better. It was
my fault, don't worry.

It was neither
my fault nor yours.

I'll buy you a hot chocolate
when we get back upstairs, okay?

Let me wash my
face and I'll come out.

Vale?

Are you ready?

Vale, what's wrong?
Do you feel sick?

Vale?

Vale?

WHORE

We can go.

Be a good girl,
I won't hurt you.

I'll give you a nice
gift when we're done.

What would you like?
What do you want the most?

Come on, tell me. A
toy? Some sweets?

No, you're a grown-up.

I won't hurt you, you'll see.

Where's Lena?
She comin' with us?

Lena's in the
toilet with that kid.

- What about Stella?
- She went with somebody else.

Such a spinning star, that girl.

Spinning star...

That's what she
was trying to say.

That's why nobody came!

Because the killer's
already in there!

Your mother told me you'd behave,
but now you've forced me to be bad.

Now I'm going to hurt you, but
don't worry, then it'll be over forever.

It will only last a
moment, you'll see.

It'll be over forever.

You must behave!

I won't hurt you!

I'll give you a nice gift!
What would you like?

Go on, tell me! A
toy? Some sweets?

No! You're a grown-up now!

Libra: you will have a nice day.

Who wants a sweet?

Try not to have
negative thoughts.

No, thanks.

Be serene and helpful to others.

Scorpio: you must not...

"One must lend oneself to
others and give oneself to oneself."

Montaigne.

My, such a well-read girl.

I was thinking we
could all meet again.

Now that we have broken the ice,
it would be a shame to lose touch.

We face plenty of trouble,
not just maniacs. N'est-Ce pas?

Health insurance, for instance.

- They want to kick me out of my home.
- And you?

Well... I don't think I'll
sell my home to that guy.

Actually, I wanted
to tell you something.

Why don't we have some
meetings at my place?

We could start our
own newspaper.

I'd like to do the mail column.

"Young Nadine's Mail
Column," how does it sound?

What do you think?

- It sounds great.
- Good idea, Nadine!

Too much smoke, are you
crazy? There's a sick patient here.

I'm smoking as well, and
there's nothing wrong with me.

Quiet! The news!

There's been a breakthrough in
the case of the murdered prostitutes.

The culprit is a young girl; police
have only disclosed her initials, V.A.

V.A. was a child prostitute,

or a spinning star as
they're called in the trade.

Stella [star]...

Spinning star...

A part-time child prostitute forced
to sleep with adults by her mother,

who worked as a
prostitute herself.

She only wants me to hang
out with very select people.

After being arrested, the
woman hanged herself in jail.

At the root of the murders lies a deranged
backstory and a split personality case.

Go on, tell me! A
toy? Some sweets?

No! You're a grown-up now!

The young girl has been
committed to a specialized institution.

This happens all the time in my
country, girls as young as nine or ten.

- In my country you're either a nun or...
- Always sisters, though.

Let's ask the institution's head, Dr. Maura
Passi, how can such a thing happen.

Many prostitutes her age
become schizophrenic.

It all stems from a split
between sex and affectivity.

If left untreated, it can
lead to mental illness.

I believe she killed those prostitutes
to destroy the prostitute within herself.

Deep down, she has always
remained innocent and pure.

She may recover in time.

Doctor needed in
the women's ward.

The arrest took place
in a bar in our city.

Thanks to the courage
of a young prostitute...

who volunteered to
act as bait, Marilena Falco.

The girl is twenty-three years old and
comes from Prato Rotondo, near Ravenna.

We must also highlight the contribution
of the prostitutes' self-defense committee,

who set up the trap
to stop the murderer.

Miss, please forgive them
if they revealed your name.

The hospital staff
has acted a little like...

Dickheads, indeed.

No big deal, we've accomplished so much,
there's nothing to be ashamed of anymore.

We've done a lot,
and all in the family.

Even the killer
was a sister like us.

A kid sister, more like.

- Miss, it's too cold for you.
- Yeah, let's go.

I Who knows if I've been bad?

I Truth be told, I don't know.

I Whoever told
me to stop or not?

I So I thought to
myself I can carry on.

I I can carry on till
my heart keeps beating.

I Life is a beautiful flower.

I I can carry on
till I reach the sea.

I You know what the
sea makes me feeling,

I and your eyes
look just like the sea.

I How can you
think I'll stop here?

I The sounds of the
yesses and the few no's...

I I will leave them in
this somewhat dark room...

I Just like one
leaves an idea...

I It melts and fades
away, ever more,

I the black coffee
taste that you had...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...

Hi, Mom.

I We are made of real
poetry, you can't tell us no...

I You can't tell us no...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...

I When I'll look at
myself in the mirror,

I and this empire of
ideas won't be no more,

I I won't be such
a slave to myself,

I and I won't sell
myself to any king.

I I won't sell
myself to any king...

I The sounds of the
yesses and the few no's...

I I will leave them in
this somewhat dark room...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...

I You can't tell us no...

I We are made of real
poetry, you can't tell us no...

I You can't tell us no...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...

I We are that kind of
women, and you know us...
