Next.

-Hi, how are you? -Good.

-Done. Have a good flight. -Thanks.

Next, please.

THE RED STRING

Good evening.

Tomás is flying alone and this is his seat.

-This one? -It's okay, I prefer the window seat.

-It's safer. -Sure...

If you need anything, call me, another crew member or the gentleman.

-You don't mind, do you? -No, it's a 12 hour flight.

He told me he has traveled alone before and he's not scared.

-Good for him. -Anything you need, call me.

Sorry.

Now you should fasten your seatbelt.

Thanks.

Don't read that, you'll get nervous.

What are you doing in here like this?

I'm exhausted, I went out last night.

I told you not to, remember what happened to Ribeiro?

They smelled alcohol in her breath, suspended her, now she does desk work,

attends AA meetings three times a week and must bring a certificate.

I don't smell like alcohol, plus if I don't go out now, when will I?

Whenever you want, just not before a flight.

Don't start, please.

Can't sleep?

No. I don't like planes.

Are you scared?

I took two sleeping pills, but they didn't work.

-Would you like some water? -No, thank you.

Why are you flying? Business or pleasure?

Pleasure, business, business.

I'm an oenologist and I'm presenting a wine at a very important fair.

-A competition? -Something like that.

Good. And what's the prize?

Doing whatever I want for the rest of your life.

Could it be the reason why you're nervous?

No. Talking to you makes me nervous.

María.

María, open the door, please.

People always fight in front of the restrooms.

See? You only care about what people think.

María.

-He left. -He'll be back. Give him a minute.

The cliché of every flight.

Like the cliché of wanting to seduce the stewardess?

Yes. But if you want to do well, don't say "stewardess",

use the correct term, "flight attendant".

María.

Honey, please. Come out, gorgeous. Come on.

Honey, please, come out.

He's back.

People don't know how to fly. They don't get it. Unbelievable.

Oh, yeah? How should it be?

We're suspended.

I don't know, it's like a break in your life.

You're isolated from everything.

You don't have a TV, you don't have a phone.

It's liberating.

I think it's terrifying.

It's just that, really, in a way, not making decisions is...

a relief. Don't you think?

Do you forgive me?

Let's go.

What were you going to say when we were listening to music?

-Hi. -"Hi"?

Is that your best pickup line?

Yeah, but with a look.

What's that?

-Come on. -No!

Hi.

-My mom and my aunt loved that. -Only child?

-Yeah, is it that obvious? -Yes, very.

And you? Are you a daddy's girl?

I don't know where or with whom daddy is. I never see him.

My mom's a psychoanalyst

and always says it's better to have daddy issues than not to.

Well, you don't know my mom. Do you want some tea?

No, thanks.

What's your sign?

I hate signs.

Gemini or Libra?

-Gemini. -Gemini. Totally unpredictable.

I'm a Pisces, ascendant and moon in Gemini.

I cry a lot.

I don't believe you.

Is this normal?

Yes. It's normal.

And this?

Is this normal?

-You have commitment issues? -Commitments have issues with me.

And why's that? Because you travel a lot?

No, because I want to go around the world before turning 25.

-Why before turning 25? -Why not?

-Here you go, sir. -Good evening.

-Thank you, miss. -You're welcome.

-Do you have any juice left? -Yes.

-Let me check. -Check how many boxes.

-Four, six, ten. -Can I have three, please?

-Are you tired? -No, I'm good.

-Hi. -What are you doing here?

I realized I can't live without you.

-I came to give you this. -Thanks.

I don't want them to see you here again. I have to work.

-Are you dating someone? -Yes.

-What do you mean yes? -You asked.

That's why you have that tattoo?

This one?

"Endless love."

No, I got this one when I was drunk at a party.

This used to be the initial of an old boyfriend.

I turned it into an anchor because he was a drag.

I have a lot. I have this one...

I have this one. But my favorite is this one.

Go back to your seat.

-What does it mean? -It's Arabic.

"Spoken words fly away, written words remain."

Go.

Relax, everything's okay.

Let me get to know you. I want to take you to lunch.

We're landing in 40 minutes and my colleague is coming.

-Do you say no because of your boyfriend? -What boyfriend?

-So say yes. -Yes.

Do you always say yes to everything?

Not always.

-Where should I wait for you? -At Border Control.

-Are you sure you'll be there? -Positive.

Go.

Go!

-Your passports, girls. -Thank you.

Is he here?

-Yes. -Don't look.

-How do I look? -Fine.

-My teeth? -Fine.

-Fine? Okay. -Yes.

-I'm staying. -Yeah, of course, I'd stay too.

Bye, bye, bye.

-I'm waiting for someone. -Please.

-I speak Spanish. -Go to the back, please.

There's only one person in front of--

-Please, stand back. -I need to tell her something.

Please, go to the back, move.

7 YEARS LATER

Come on, come on!

Stop it!

-A little while longer. -No, Felix will be up. Come on.

Come to bed.

Your mother called at 8:00 a.m.

She asked why you're sleeping so much, if you're depressed...

I told her you stayed up late fucking.

-You didn't. -Yes, I did.

-What did she do? Did she hang up? -Yeah, she hung up.

I'm tired of telling her not to call at this hour.

She told me to give you a sedative if you seem nervous.

-That they work wonders for her. -To end up like her, I need two.

Will you take me to the airport, babe?

Yes, I told you, I have to pick up the Colombian chick.

-The singer? Wasn't she Mexican? -No.

She's flying from Mexico, but she's Colombian.

-Do you ever work as a producer for men? -I like producing women better.

I can't believe I decided to fly again.

You can't? You were dying to get on an airplane.

Don't say that, it sounds like I want to leave.

Listen, Felix has Toto's birthday tomorrow, remember?

Toto?

Yeah, I already called Marina to babysit him.

Not Marina! I don't want chorus girls to babysit him.

Then who will babysit him, babe?

-You scared me to death! -Mommy, I didn't wet the bed.

-No! -You didn't?

You're a big boy now! You don't wet the bed anymore.

You know how to go to the toilet alone, and also how to shave...

I don't shave, Mommy!

Not like that, you look like trees.

-You told us to look at the sky. -But don't get petrified.

Rita, look. Come here. Look for bugs, give daddy a bit of grass.

Right there, stay close to him. Manuel, look at me.

Look at me. If you get tired, just look somewhere else. Come on.

Don't insist, I'm not a model.

I don't photograph models. You need these pictures, okay?

Loosen up the arms.

The realtor called about two temporary apartments.

-Pretty and expensive. -Where?

The one I like most is near the zoo. A bit far from the school, but it's okay.

Don't make faces, you are ruining the photos! Really.

I don't see myself living opposite a zoo,

looking at depressed animals every day.

Dad, do animals get depressed?

-No, honey, they don't. -Yes they do.

-And where's the other one? -Farther away.

It's in Vicente López, in front of the river.

It doesn't look like Buenos Aires, you know?

-I like that one. -I figured.

-If it were up to me, we'd stay. -You don't want to move.

Wanting is one thing, needing is another.

Could you enjoy what we decided to do? You look so handsome, I love it!

-Go with Daddy, Rita! -Come here, Rita!

Here we go. Yes!

Look at me. Both of you!

So pretty! Really pretty. Good!

Come on.

Come on, honey, let's go!

Come on, Felix, don't you want to go play? Let's go!

Don't make it more difficult. Honey!

Come on, let's go!

We'll have a great time, we'll hang out with other kids.

-I don't want to! -You do want to, you'll have a blast.

-Honey, he doesn't want to go in there! -I don't want to.

-Hello. -Hello. What's wrong? It's today?

Yes, it's for three or four days, I told him already.

Yes, we talked it over with him, it's okay.

Okay. Maybe the adjustment period works out with his dad and not you.

-Grab your backpack. -Everyone's expecting you! Let's go!

-Say bye to Mom and Dad! -Bye, bye!

-Bye, honey. -We'll call you if we need to.

-Mom! -Come on, let's go.

Mom!

Honey, we've talked about this. It's good for him to be with other kids.

Mom!

Listen to him. What if we don't bring him here anymore?

What are you talking about? Next year, he'll be an outcast, crying every day.

Really, it's not that bad, honey. He's just like his mother.

He likes being independent, running around, playing the victim.

-No, that's my mom. -No, that's you, honey.

-Why "running around"? -How dare you.

End of the day, turn off the computer.

What are you working on?

-What are you working on? -You.

Nice, huh? Handsome.

-When did you take that one? -"Never shoot and tell."

That's not the quote. It's "never kiss and tell."

It's my version of it, and it's not a quote, it's a proverb.

-It's the same. What's there to tell? -What you were thinking about.

Look at this one. I like it for the back cover.

-It's very good. -I'm good!

Very good.

-Should I pick the rest? -Do whatever you want.

She's in the living room.

-Is she asleep? -She's asleep.

-Honey, come on, I don't have much time. -Bye, see you.

Walk me only to the escalator, I don't wanna cry.

Fine.

What are you doing until the Mexican arrives?

She's Colombian, I said it a thousand times!

Okay, what will you be doing for four hours?

Well... read, study, work, make a buck.

-Felix will be fine, okay? I promise. -Yes, but I'll miss him.

Here's what we'll do:

Let's give it a try. If you think it's not working,

you'll ask for time off or quit altogether, like that.

I love you. Everything's so simple to you.

Everything's easy, you're the one who complicates it all.

Okay, enough, I don't wanna cry. Bye.

Is the Mexican prettier than me?

She was voted Mexico's Hottest Woman of the Year,

and everyone knows she's a nymphomaniac.

What's up?

I'll call you when I land. Keep Felix up so I can talk to him.

Pick him up tomorrow, I don't think my mom will make it.

I love you, I love you, I love you.

I can't believe Brian is not answering.

-There's reception upstairs. -Relax.

You're happy because you're back at work.

-You can't stop being so controlling! -I just want to know where he is.

-Here is your passport. -Thanks.

-Good afternoon, ma'am. -Good afternoon.

Welcome.

-Good afternoon, sir. Welcome. -Good afternoon.

-Name and surname. -Abril Saguier.

-Name and surname, please. -Manuel Casia.

-Married? -No. Cohabitation.

Married?

Yes.

-First time in Colombia? -Yes.

Okay, can you sign here, please?

-Passport, please. -And here.

You're on the system, would you like to update your information?

-No, it's okay. Thank you. -Perfect.

Breakfast is served from 6:30 to 10:30 at the lounge on the first floor.

Here is your passport, and your room is number 737.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

-Your credit card and passport. -Thank you. Hi!

-Hi. -Abril, I finally know your name.

Remember me?

Yeah, do you remember me? Barajas...

The fire at T2?

-Shall I go up? -I'm coming.

-Nine o'clock at the rooftop bar, okay? -Yes.

The evacuation at Border Control, don't you remember?

Yes. The oenologist.

-How did the wine championship go? -I lost. I was late.

All of us at Border Control got delayed because our passports weren't stamped.

I'm Manuel.

Hello, Manuel.

-Well-- -No, you can't leave like this.

I spent two years looking for you. You don't know the things I did.

-Let me buy you a coffee or whatever-- -I don't go out with strangers.

But you kissed one.

-I'm not 23 anymore. -I won't kiss you, I promise.

Pal!

-Please, take this to room 737. -Yes, sir, gladly.

Thank you.

It's right over there. It's overlooking the ocean.

Let's go.

-First time in Colombia? -Yes.

You had never flown here?

No, actually I stopped working two years ago, when I got pregnant.

I extended my leave and...

here I am.

-Do you live in Chile? -Yes.

I work in Mendoza a lot, and I'm moving to Buenos Aires soon.

Sorry.

Thank you.

-How old is your son? -Felix? Three.

-Do you have kids? -Rita. She's five.

What do you think? Nice, isn't it?

Beautiful.

Can you believe I spent two years...

lying and calling the airline to find out your name?

They always said they didn't disclose employee information.

-I got suspended after that flight. -Because we kissed?

Did we kiss?

If they had found out about that, they would've fired me.

I got suspended for poor behavior.

Arriving at the last minute, pretending to be sick to stay at the posts.

Right, I remember.

The rebel girl.

You didn't get to know me.

And I wasn't a rebel.

I was young.

-Should we drink something here? -No, upstairs.

-What did you do after the suspension? -Therapy. Lots of therapy.

I was assigned to do administrative work.

-Welcome. New guests? -Hello.

-Yes. -Yes.

Would you like a welcome cocktail?

-Please. -Thank you.

Do you have reception here? I can't get a signal.

It's a bit unstable up here.

I need to call my son!

It's the first time I'm traveling alone since he was born.

Can I ask you a question?

Did you look for me?

Yes. But not for two years.

-Did you change seats? -Yes, but you had the passengers list.

-There were 50 Chileans. I checked 39. -Why?

Because later I met Bruno.

I signed up for Facebook.

Thinking of you. If I'd been you, I would've found myself.

I didn't know you were arrogant. It was easier to find me.

You should've checked the airline hotels in Madrid.

I was held up at the airport for five hours. Then I rented a car,

traveled to San Sebastián, and I didn't make it on time.

Exactly. You didn't look for me properly.

I became a fan of Casablanca. I watched it a million times.

I don't know, it reminded me of you. That part where she leaves Bogart.

I don't know, it was like...

I felt it was you leaving me.

I think there's reception over there. I'll be right back.

-On the house. -Thank you very much.

Hi!

Look.

He's Felix.

-And this is his dad. -Your son is so cute!

Is this Raidy?

-You married a rock star? -He's Bruno to me, not Raidy.

Of course, I'm more like...

suit, glasses, more of a nerd, right?

Look.

Let's see.

This is my daughter, Rita. And my wife.

She's a photographer. She's photographed a lot of musicians,

album covers, concerts.

She's pretty.

You finally got your love story. Very nice.

You never thought what could have happened between us?

No.

I don't think about what didn't happen.

I can't believe how in love I was with you.

From a kiss on a plane?

I'm leaving. I have a party and I don't want to be late.

Thank you for everything.

Cheers.

Well, see you around.

Breakfast is served from 6:30 to 10:30.

The captain's birthday party is tonight on the terrace. If you want...

-We are six people here already. -Sorry. Go, go.

Hi honey, I'm in my room.

Let me know if you've finished rehearsing and we'll talk, okay?

Love you.

-Who is it? -It's me. Open.

Coming.

-Why haven't you changed yet? -Never mind, tell me what happened.

Nothing happened. Did somebody ask who I was talking to?

Yes. I said he was your cousin Francisco's best friend,

that you met when you were kids, and he went to your wedding...

-What wedding? I'm not married. -They don't know that. What did he say?

Nothing. That he's married, he has a daughter.

-Did he look for you? -He says that he did.

Did you mention we went to Valparaíso looking for him?

Are you nuts? No, and I won't tell him. No.

Why are you drinking beer at this hour?

-Brian dumped me. -When?

Ten minutes ago, via WhatsApp.

-No, that's impossible. -Look.

You can't get dumped like that. You'll get back together.

He blocked me on WhatsApp, deleted me on Facebook.

-He dumped me. -Then he did.

-Yes. -Well, he's doing you a favor.

-Dumping me it's not a good favor. -Yes.

You were together for so long but never made it official, it was obvious.

But I thought we'd get married. Our daughter would be named

Ludmila, and the boy, Jonathan,

after his grandfather. And?

And I love him.

-Hi. -Hi! How are you?

Tired.

There's so much traffic in Buenos Aires, and Rita's being needy. You?

-Working. Is Rita asleep? -Yes.

-She was scared of sleeping alone. -Poor thing.

-Show me the apartment. -Look.

This is the kitchen.

Lots of light. There are boxes to unpack, but it'll be okay.

We'll settle in soon. I miss you.

-We didn't have time to miss you. -Is that a complaint?

No, a bad joke.

-I love you. -I love you too.

-I'm going to bed. I'm sleepy. -Big kiss.

Bye.

-What's wrong? -Brian.

-What are you drinking? -A "Sex on the beach".

Looks more like a "Dead in the pool".

Come on!

Bottoms up. Simple and fast.

Come on.

Hello, good evening.

-Good evening. -Can I have a coffee?

No, I'm sorry, the restaurant is closed. But the bar is open.

Thank you very much.

We're changing up the beat! Everyone get a partner!

If you end up alone, you lose! One, two, three!

- No, no! -Come here, I don't want to lose.

To the right.

Let's ask Captain Bidonde...

to delight us with his rock and roll moves. Come on!

Come on! Everyone to the beat!

You're good at running away.

I've been playing the DJ's games since 9:00 p.m.

Now I want to smoke.

And I'm trying to quit.

-Give it to me. -No, I can't foster your bad habits.

-I wanna take a drag! -No!

Give it.

Horrible.

-I'll quit right now. Gross. -Hi!

Tropical night!

-Is your friend always like that? -No, she's super relaxed.

In fact, I think this is the first time she goes wild.

It's fine anyway. All of us deserve a night to remember.

Yeah? Can't you remember something else?

Oh, excuse me.

You're a serious and traditional guy who never got wasted, right?

You never woke up next to a naked girl you didn't even know?

You and a friend, two girls, and not knowing what happened? No?

No!

-Did you? -No.

The first time I got drunk I was at my aunt Marta's house.

I drank half a bottle of mint frappé.

I walked to the video store...

and rented Stand By Me and my first porno.

Such an only child. How old were you?

I don't remember. What I do remember is that there were two busty blondes

in the shower, with no curtain, and the gardener comes in--

-No! -Yes.

Haven't you heard the saying?

-What saying? -"Never talk about sex."

Is that a proposal?

No.

Are you working tomorrow?

No.

-You? -Yes.

Would you like to go out with me tomorrow, go for a walk?

Bye.

-Don't go. -Yes.

Don't go. No.

Hi. I didn't see you on Skype.

I wanted to talk a little, tell you some stuff.

I'm going to a meeting now, honey. Let's talk later on.

Call me or... I don't know.

-I wanna talk... -Yes, I'll put you on the phone.

Call me later, honey. Have a nice day.

Wait, somebody wants to say hi.

Hi, Dad. How are you?

-We send you lots of kisses. Bye, Dad. -Bye, Dad.

-Hi, my darling! -Hi, Mom. I went to the kindergarten.

I didn't cry. Can you bring me presents?

-Of course I will. -I'll go watch TV.

No, stay here and talk to me, I miss you. You'll watch TV later!

-Wait, I'll take him. -Hey!

Honey.

Let him watch TV, he woke up super early.

He asked for you at breakfast anyway.

-Don't tell me that. How's he been? -He's being good.

And with your mother too. The teacher said he didn't cry.

I leave and he doesn't cry.

-And you? The Mexican chick? -My battery is at 3%.

The Mexican. The Colombian Mexican...

She's way too fucking intense. She's at the studio rehearsing.

She has two songs left, but she's too nervous anyway.

Poor her.

God, honey, you're so hot.

-Show me something. Show me something! -No, I don't want to.

The room is a mess, no.

I don't care about the mess, I'm horny, honey.

Honey!

Fuck.

Who is it?

Captain Bidonde.

-What's up, Abril? -Did you have breakfast?

-No, I'm not going. I don't feel well. -What's wrong?

-Nothing. -Flight attendant!

Yes.

-Who is it? -Bidonde.

Come on!

-Bidonde. -Is breakfast here?

Yes.

Sorry.

Please, don't make me keep on negotiating.

It's a very personal project.

I want to give you a present, courtesy of my winery.

-So kind, thank you. -I'll wait for your offer...

-when you deem it necessary. -Let me crunch the numbers.

We'll think about it and we'll call you later.

Yes. I'll be here at your complete disposal.

-Perfect. Thank you very much. -My pleasure.

Hi. Are you lost?

Hi. Yes. I can't read maps.

-Where do you want to go? -To the Walls?

-It's huge, it surrounds the entire city. -Oh. To the artisans fair then.

Do you want me to go with you?

-I can teach you to haggle. -I know how to haggle too. Thanks.

-Didn't you have a lot of work? -Yes, but I want walk around with you.

I'm not inviting you.

Okay.

-The view is beautiful from atop. -It is?

-Do you come here often? -Yes, quite often, on business.

Did you overcome your fear of flying?

No, but I accepted it. Did you go around the world?

-No. I can't believe you remember that. -I remember everything.

-Hi. -Hi.

-One of these. -It's 10,000.

-Hi. -Hi!

-Thanks. -You're welcome.

-Good afternoon. -Good afternoon.

Necklaces, rings, bracelets.

You can try them on. You're so beautiful they'll look great on you, won't they?

-How much are they? -25,000.

Too expensive.

Two for 25,000. A special sale.

-Maybe as a gift for your mom? -She's dead.

For your dad, your aunt, your sisters.

Can you believe I had a ring just like this one when I was little?

-Buy it for your girlfriend. -Thanks.

-How did you sleep? -Like a baby.

-I stayed up all night-- -Take a look, sir.

No, thank you. Thinking about us.

When I turned five, I told my mom I was getting married.

She thought of Pedro, my grandma's neighbor. We were together all the time.

But Pedro had a girlfriend.

So I stayed with Francisco, whom I also liked.

I remember I dressed up as Cinderella, him as Spiderman, and we waltzed.

And who would I be?

Neither.

That's the point, Manuel.

We can only do those things when we're children.

There's only one "us".

-I speak Spanish. -Welcome. Come in, please.

Thank you.

Good morning.

-What can I offer you? -Can I?

-Those will look beautiful on you. -So pretty.

Let's leave it at 20, leave it at 20. Good luck.

-What's the stone? -A turquoise. It matches your eyes.

Thank you. They're contacts anyway. I'm joking.

-Good morning. Welcome. -Good morning.

Can I offer you a Narguile, coffee mugs,

a coffee pot, to take home with you?

Would you like that, honey?

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

My mother says she saw the red string of fate between you two.

The tale of the old man who lives on the moon,

and connects with a red string the souls that are destined to be together.

Don't you want the earrings? Or a lamp?

-We'll be right back. Thank you. -Don't you want...?

Thank you.

Everyone seems to think we're together.

-They'll say anything to make a sale. -Why are you upset?

Because it goes against your "only one 'us'" theory?

You're the least romantic woman I've ever met.

Those stories are for tourists.

-Skeptical. -Realistic.

Don't tell me you believed what they said.

What?

Nothing.

I was going to kiss you...

but it would be too romantic, right?

-What? -Nothing, I like to watch you walk.

-Do you want a hat? -I have a hat for you, at a great price.

-How much? -This one is for you. 40,000.

-I don't like this one. -That's crazy!

-This one. -Try it on.

It looks good on you. It's cheap.

-And for her? -For her I have those, over there.

-Let's see. -I can give you a good price.

Cheap.

Not for me.

That one, miss, that one looks pretty on you.

-Does it? -For the beach.

-How much? How much? -Both for 200,000.

What do you mean 200,000? What are you talking about?

-Both for 100,000. -Both?

-Come on, here you go. -Good, my friend, thank you. Bye.

That's how you haggle?

It's one of my favorite views.

I had forgotten about the freedom of traveling alone.

Do you feel free now?

Yes.

But when you have kids, you're never alone again.

When kids show up in the picture, you're no longer the protagonist.

When Rita was born, she became the center of everything. But as they get older...

you find yourself again.

Do you?

What?

Nothing.

Life's funny, isn't it?

Beautiful.

Strange.

Capricious.

Short.

Mysterious.

The air is so cold.

The air is so cold.

I'm soaking wet.

What a disaster.

"Maktub"?

Maktub.

Delivery.

Thank you. Can I borrow a t-shirt?

Thanks.

I remember this one.

I remember this one.

That one, what does it say?

"Forget me not."

-You didn't have that one. -No.

-I got it because of you. -Really?

No. Don't think you were that important.

Don't be cruel. Please.

Didn't you quit?

Almost. I was about to.

When I'm back in Buenos Aires, I'll leave it.

-What are you saying? -Nothing.

Close your eyes. Close them.

Open them.

-No! -Yes.

-Is it a present? -An engagement.

You told me you liked it, that it reminded you of your childhood.

Thank you.

-What about this song? An oldie, isn't it? -Not an oldie, a classic.

I probably hadn't been born yet.

-Can I listen to one of my generation? -Okay.

Excuse me.

-Pick up if you want. -No.

Yes.

One second.

Hello?

-Hi. -Honey, what happened?

-Nothing. -I'm waiting online. You didn't call us.

-I was coming out of a meeting. -Oh.

-Is it getting difficult? -Yes, I haven't closed a deal yet.

I don't understand, why not? Did something happen?

-No, why? -Aren't they old clients of yours?

Mom, I wanna talk to him.

-Somebody wants to talk to you. -No, I'm going to a meeting now.

-When I finish I'll call her. -Hi, Dad.

-Wait, honey. -Mom, I want to talk to Dad.

Okay, but let's talk. I have news.

Your daughter loved the new school. She saw the music room and loved it.

-Really? -They teach violin.

-She played and got in. -Perfect.

She was so good.

And I was offered... to exhibit my work at a really nice place.

It's small, but nice. I also sent out two budgets today.

All at the same time. What do you think?

Good, good.

You'll have to forgive us, but we went to celebrate by ourselves.

And?

Good. I should travel more often, it's good for her that I'm gone.

Don't say that.

Today was Rita's first day, and we missed you.

Yes, I miss you too. I'll call later and talk to Rita.

-I'll tell her. -Kiss. Bye.

Kiss. Bye.

-Manuel, can I ask you a question? -Yes.

If you could choose

between being with me this morning and ending things...

and waiting a year, meet again, and give it a shot at being together...

What would you choose?

Why do you ask that? I don't know, I had to pick up and Rita...

Answer me.

I don't know, I'd have to think about it. I don't know.

See?

That's wrong.

-You think we have a chance. -We do have a chance.

We're here, together.

No.

No.

You don't know me.

You... have no idea who I am.

And I don't know you either.

You know what?

The only option is to end it now.

And at the same time, that's not really an option.

What are we going to do?

Keep laughing happily...

and then say goodbye as if nothing had happened?

Wait, wait, wait. Are you upset because I answered my wife's call?

I'm not upset.

It just bothers me... that I'm upset about you having a life with her.

You have your own life too. What can we do about that?

Nothing.

You can't do anything, and neither can I.

I don't want this to end, I want to stay here. I love you.

No.

That's the problem.

You can't love two people at the same time.

I... I love my husband.

And you love your wife. That's the way it is, I heard you.

This is not real.

Yes, we are real.

They're real too.

-Do you feel guilty? -No.

It's not guilt.

Abril... I want to be with you.

And I never want to see you again.

I'll call you a cab.

43 DAYS LATER

Come on!

Hello?

Hi.

-Hi! -Hi, Dad.

Oh, that's so pretty!

Did you do your homework?

-Rita, put that away, come on. -No!

Your hands are dirty, go have a bath, come on.

"Brave pulled the bowstring and shot the arrow.

The arrow hit the bull’s-eye.

The townspeople clapped and cheered.

Brave's dream had come true.

She was the winner.

Without hesitation, she removed her disguise.

Her fiery red curls glared under the sun.

'Oh!,' everyone said.

'It's a woman!'

'Ah!,' said the queen."

-"Brave!" -Very good!

"Should the transaction be confirmed,

the buyer will pay me the fees for my advice

at the time of the signing of the purchase agreement,

3% plus VAT of the corresponding amount of the total net sales prices.

Both parties will take on the administrative fees,

the certificates, and other processing fees related to this transaction.

This deposit is valid for five consecutive days as of today,

in Buenos Aires, on the twenty-third day of the month of November, 2015."

Any observations?

They're leaving at the end of the month.

We could add that the handover should be done not later than a month.

-Okay. I'll write it down and check. -Okay.

We can add here, in this part...

I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. LET'S MEET.

...that the bill of sale and the deed should be signed at the same time.

Okay, I'll write it down as a requirement.

Okay.

Manuel. Can we give him the deposit?

The deposit.

The depo...

Thank you. It's a formality, but I must count it. Excuse me.

NO. I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU.

Honey, I brought Chinese, are you coming?

Give me a second!

Abril, come down. Felix is so hungry he's biting me.

Liar!

It's not true, Mom.

Ouch! Don't bite me!

Are you going to work all night?

I regret doing this exhibit, it's too much work.

I like it.

It seems that tomorrow I'll have to go to Chile.

-At what time? -I don't know. At noon, I think.

It's Flor.

Hi, Flor. Yes.

I can bring it forward one day.

What we talked about: a horizontal photo of them and their wives.

Exactly.

The other one was four inches wide, we can switch it up for a smaller one.

No, if that's the case, we'll do the cover shot with Raidy

and the musicians, and then we'll figure out what to do next...

Yes, we'll start with Raidy. At that studio.

Download the two spots, I'll use an HDMI of 1800, two of 400...

and a Chimera.

The flashes, obviously.

What?

One night for the touchups?

What can I say?

Okay. Bye.

What happened?

They brought the shoot forward one day and changed the studio.

I thought you wanted to focus on your exhibit.

Yes, but this is work. I have to do it, it's good.

The album is about love stories.

I'll photograph the musicians with their wives.

That's original!

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Nothing's wrong.

Flor, what's up?

No, but I need continuous lighting. I can't do it.

If they can't give me that, I can't do it.

Then give me a list of what they have. Ramón can't either.

I like it. Way too serious, Bruno! You look too serious!

-I'm trying to figure out... -Loosen up, come on.

-I'll loosen up. -There we go. You look so funny!

-I don't want to look funny. -I like that look in your eyes!

-Do I look okay? -Great. Good.

-Good? -Yes.

Flor, can you show them?

Guys, come here, I'll show you the pictures.

Your face is amazing. You must let me photograph you alone.

No. I don't like having my photo taken. I came because Bruno asked me to.

-Laura Salas. -Abril Raidy.

-You're not married? -Yes, but I use my maiden name.

Honey, what a day.

-Have I introduced you? -Yes.

-You're two of a kind. -Yes. I don't deserve her. I don't.

-I'm with this. -How is it?

-Very nice. -Good?

-There are a few I love. That one. -Yes!

-So good. -What do you think?

-Do you like it? -Congratulations.

Flor, can you pass me the camera? I want you to...

-I want to leave. -What's wrong?

-I hate the dress. I'm uncomfortable. -You are?

-Can I take one? -Yes, yes!

No, I have to pick up my son. I don't want to.

-It'll take a minute. -I don't want to.

Like that, natural. No poses.

Good. Bruno, smile. Here.

I like that, good, good.

Look at me. Abril, don't smile if you don't feel it.

She won't do it, not if she doesn't want to.

You look so pretty when you laugh! Good. A kiss.

Great! A kiss. Great. Hug her.

Stay like that. Good!

-Would you show them, Flor? -Don't you like the jacket?

Hi.

-Hi. -What's wrong?

-My flight was canceled. -Oh. Come, I'll introduce you.

-He's Manuel, my husband. Abril, Bruno. -Hi.

The famous Manuel. Your wife said her best portraits are yours.

Really? Love's like that.

-And the things you do for love, right? -Yeah? What things?

I don't know, me being here with my husband,

-or your husband coming to see you. -Don't be so sure. He's not here often.

-Can you imagine me flying with you? -No.

I'm sure is not easy being married to a...

-To a famous musician. -No, it has its advantages.

-What do you do? -I have a winery.

A winery. See? I knew you and I had something in common.

We'll take the lighting down a bit and change the wardrobe, Flor.

Andrés, Lucas, come here!

That looks good. I like that one better. It's more masculine.

-Yeah? -I like it better. Let's use this one.

Your photo shoot was so pretty.

-Yeah. -So pretty.

Can I have some?

Who are you?

-Manuel. -Oh.

I'm Sandy, Lucas' girl.

-Are you a photographer? -No, I'm Laura's husband.

Oh, cool.

What are you looking at?

I pictured us as swingers.

I don't think so, she's too old for him.

I don't know why you're here.

I wanted to see you.

And I told you I didn't want to see you.

Let's go.

I'll make up an excuse and we'll leave.

Let's set that light a little higher.

Okay.

I'm completely crazy about you.

I like it when you laugh.

Tell me what you like about me.

Nothing.

I never thought I could fall in love again.

You're sweet.

I want you to tell me that you love me.

I won't pick up.

I have 20 missed calls.

Hi. I'm Felix Sempere's mother.

I don't know, you called me.

Okay.

Hi, what happened?

Oh, you already spoke to his dad.

Okay, thanks.

-What happened? -Nothing.

Do you want me to drive you?

No.

Where are you? You didn't pick up Felix. I can't reach you, what's going on?

Abril, I'm worried. What's wrong? Where are you?

I don't understand. You don't pick up, I've been calling you.

You didn't pick up the kid. I'm worr--

-Who is it? -Abril.

-What's wrong? What's wrong? -I was mugged.

What do you mean? What do you mean you were mugged?

-I was mugged. Where's Felix? -Upstairs. Are you okay?

Yeah, I wanna see him.

But what did they take? Did they steal the car?

I don't like them. I'd change them all.

Don't make any decisions right now. We'll decide it tomorrow.

Don't send the rest because I want to make touch ups

-and see how they end up-- -Hi.

-It's going good. -Yes.

No.

Okay, I'll get going.

Bye. Call me if you need anything.

And this photo?

Stop.

Stop doing that.

-Stop. Don't do this. Enough. -What do you want me to do?

I'm sorry.

What is there to forgive? Don't smoke. You can't in here.

I was going to tell you. I came to tell you.

What were you going to tell me?

You were going to tell me...

you fell in love, you met someone, you need time off, what?

-I don't know. These things happen. -To you, not to me.

Nobody will love you like I do.

Yes, I know.

You fell in love.

I'm sorry.

I love you.

Yeah, but not that much.

-Did I wake you? -No, I can't sleep.

What's wrong?

I love this photo.

Relax.

What the hell is going on, Abril?

I wasn't mugged.

No?

I lied.

-I need to leave. -Wait, wait. Where are you going?

-Tell me what the hell is going on. -Stop, I want to you stop.

I don't care. Explain it to me. Tell me.

-You already know! -I want to hear you say it.

-No. -Yes.

-No! -Say it, damn it, say it!

I fucked a guy.

Which guy?

Laura's husband.

The preppy dude from the photos?

You fucking bitch.

-I'm sorry. -Sorry about what, Abril?

What are you sorry about? Fucking that guy? This? What?

-How many times? Did you bring him here? -No!

-Did you fuck on my bed? Is he good? -Why do you wanna know the details? No!

I wanna know if he is worth it.

-I'm leaving. It's three days. -You're not leaving!

Every time there's a problem, you leave. This time you won't.

-I don't wanna stay! -I don't care! I don't care!

Mommy, come!

Pick up.

I love you.

-Let's go to sleep. -I don't want to.

ANSWER ME. I TOLD HER. I WANT TO SEE YOU.

I TOLD HIM TOO. WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?

Is he asleep?

Almost.

I'm leaving.

What about the kid?

It's for a few days, I explained it to him.

Did he forgive you?

Because I haven't.

Go.

Go.

-Is here okay? -A little bit further ahead, please.

I'm waiting for someone.

I CAN'T TODAY.

Let's go.
