" Can you read my palm for five Lira?" "Yes, of course." "Can I get in?" "Sure." "May I help you?" " Is Genovese around?" "Yes, he's next door." "Where's my sister?" " She stayed at the villa..." "She sent me instead." "You know I don't like doing this." "Any news?" " I'd rather speak to Nina." "Tell me." "Who is he?" "Leave him be." "I don't want him back here." " Why not?" "He's a drunk." "Right, let's go." "Come on." "Come with me." "Come on." "We can't stop now." " You said it was close but I don't see a thing." "One more push." "We're almost there." "Do you know how many kilometres we've still got left?" "Max, I'm tired." "I'm going to sit down." "Look, no one's going to stop." " At least we can rest for a while." "It might be better if I hide." "Why?" "Because they can see me." "Look at that beautiful colour." "What a lovely shade of red." "It looks like a bloodstained lawn." "What way are you going?" " Towards Piacenza." "Can we get in?" "What is it?" "A racing car?" "Who knows why this gentleman is so taciturn?" "Do you want me to drop you off somewhere?" "Wherever you prefer." "If you don't know where to stay I can take you to my sister's villa..." "She's always happy to receive guests." "Especially younger ones." "Thank you." "That would be great." "Here." "It's me." "Open." "You take it." "You see..." "They're doing well for themselves." " It seems like a clinic." "Go through to the lounge." "I'm going to call my sister." "See..." "This is a real house." "Look at all the people." "Good morning." "Good morning." "Do you want me to drink you?" "Look..." "It's scary." " What is it?" "Do you like it?" "I find it horrendous." "It's my husband's idea." "Please, sit down." "It's nice here." "You may all leave, please." "I want to talk to these two alone." " Come with me, let's go." "Where do you come from?" " Rome." "Where did you sleep last night?" " In a barn near Livorno." "Are you related?" " No, we're lovers." "What about your parents?" " We haven't seen them for two years." "Haven't they looked for you?" " No, I don't think so..." "We asked them to leave us in peace." "My father's last words were..." ""For me, it's as if you're dead."" "How do you live?" " Max has a scholarship and I do what I can." "You must know people." "Friends?" "Yes, a lot of friends." "School friends." "Did they know about your trip?" " No..." "We left without making any plans." "I hate planning for anything." "Studies, love..." "For me, everything has to be spontaneous Natural, like flowers..." "Like the day." "Two vagabonds." " Yes, two vagabonds." "Hello, dear." "What have you done all morning?" "What have I done?" "I even went to the shop." "It's not true." "I called, you weren't there." "No, you weren't there." "Spare me the excuses, I'm busy." "Yes, me too." "I'm going upstairs." "What happened?" " I cut my finger..." "There must be a pin on the sofa." " No, it's nothing..." "Let my husband see." "He'll cure you." "Don't suck it." "You might get an infection." "Yes." "Come with me." "Go on." "Here, at the table." "What are you doing?" " It's nothing, relax." "One moment." "Now, I'll treat it." "All done." "Would you like a drink?" " Yes, thanks." "A whiskey." " Yes." "Thanks." "What's your name?" " Max." "You play well, Max." "This is my office." "My office laboratory." "I invented all these things you see." "I made them with my own hands and my brain." "You see, dear." "I've studied for many years..." "I studied the development of medicine, and the evolution of vegetative growth and animals." "From seed to flower." "It's all passed through the filter of my research and I have concluded that nature is imperfect." "It's down to us to modify and repair ourselves." "What nature hasn't done." "The dynamics of automatism..." "This is perfection." "Look here..." "Man and machine..." "They are two inconceivable entities." "This is also a toy." " It's a bit sinister for a toy." "Soon, you'll see my masterpiece." " What do you mean?" "My wife calls it a toy but it isn't a toy." "Is this all for us?" "My husband and I eat very little in the evening..." "Cheese, fruit." "We're vegetarians." "Aren't you tired travelling on foot?" " We hitch-hike every now and then." "But we covered 5km's on foot today." "When I think of the things I did." "I was very good at it." "Isn't he coming down?" " He's drunk so he stayed in his room." "That's a shame." "Who?" "You met him." "The guy with the long beard..." "The crazy one." "The wine." "Listen..." "This is the label from that brand of wine." "Where can I find this place?" " It's in Emiglia, near Piacenza." "Have you already been there?" "Not yet." "We usually deal exclusively with drugs:" "heroin, cocaine, hashish etc..." "But the rest..." "Arms trafficking, for example..." "It's worth millions." "Black market medicine and who knows what else at the cost of people's lives." "Exploiting the innocent." "Listen, boss..." "I'm going back to Italy." "I'll keep you informed." "Good luck." "Here..." "These rooms are for the guests." "My husband and I sleep in the attic upstairs." "This is for you." "Next door there's..." "Thank you, but we prefer to sleep together." "But there's only one bed." " It doesn't matter..." "We're used to it." "Please." "Goodnight, guys." "Finally, a bed." "Do you think they're a bit strange?" " She's okay." "Look, there's even a shower." " You could wash." "You know I don't like to." "Let's put our things in the room..." "I don't like it like this." "Pass me the incense." "Thanks." "Why don't you cover the armchair?" " Sure." "Listen, Max." "Do you think we'll stay here long?" "How do I know?" "Take it." "Max..." "She was spying on us." " Who?" "The woman." "I told you they were strange." "Perhaps she wants to see me naked?" " Get undressed, then." "Have you got anything left?" " Yes, yes..." "Time to work." "Can you pass me a newspaper, please." "Pass me the lighter." " This stuff is nice." "Are you going to pass it?" "Will you pass me the joint?" "If I'm disturbing?" "They're all crazy here." "This is my room." "Come in." "Look." "Very strange." "It looks like a prepared dinner." "Look at her." "I thought you were asleep." "You should go back to your rooms." "I wouldn't want my sister to wake up." "What about her?" "That woman?" "She's Antonio's niece." "There's a danger of epilepsy, so..." " No, no..." "I saw her when she came in, she hasn't been here long." "Have you been drinking again?" "Listen, very soon you'll be seeing bats." "Come..." "Take a look." "So what?" "I like wine as well." "Good morning." " Good morning." "I'd like to speak to Mr Testa." " Mr Testa is seeing a client right now." "May I wait for him?" " Come in." "Thanks." "Come in." " I need to talk to you." "Let's go through." " Thank you." "Have a seat." "Tell me." "Cigarette." " No, thank you." "Are you the owner?" " Yes, of course." "I'll tell you why I came here right away, I'm not with the police..." "Read it." "I'm an agent from UNESCO." "I'm sorry, but I can't tell you any more right now." "Listen..." "How many clients do you have?" "More than 300." "In Italy and overseas." "That's a lot." "Have you ever noticed anything strange about your clients?" "When you're taking deliveries?" "No, not really." "Nothing strange." "I want to show you something." "Do you recognise it?" "Yes, that's one of our wines." " You see, this is the only proof I've got." "It was made right here." "I'd like to speak to your staff." "Only for a few minutes." "Certainly." "I'm at your complete disposal." "I'll ask my son to accompany you." "Luigi." "How many delivery vans do you have?" " We've got eight vans and two tankers." " Do you have drivers for all of them?" "No, we only employ four drivers." "What's this?" "Recent?" "Yes, it's this years." "Is it all bottled here?" " Of course." "Is it possible to remove the label?" " You could remove it if you want." "Max." "Come here." "What is it?" "This is wine." "Wine." "It's not bad." "Turn it off or we'll stink for a month." "I'll wash you now." "Look." "The sculpture has disappeared." "They probably sold it." " But I saw it myself last night." "Then they moved it." "I told you..." "That stuff we got is really strong." "This music is so boring." " But it's Wagner, Valentina..." "I have to admit I don't like Wagner very much either." "I love German music." "It makes me feel big, more important..." "Without a doubt it's music for a superior race." "Can you come next door?" "It's all ready." "Good." "It's ready." " It's ready?" "Excellent." "Excuse me..." "They're calling me." "I could stay here for months." "Have you seen that girl around?" " How do I know?" "I'm not her mother." "I didn't hear anything." " Did you hear that?" "Did you hear that?" " No." "This music is terrible." "Haven't you noticed how strange these people are?" "She's a..." " Say it, I'm a prostitute." "Right, she's a prostitute." "You two are like vagabonds." "Hippies..." "I'm just a poor guy." "A good for nothing..." "It almost seems like we've collected for some reason." "Don't exaggerate, it's not the first time I've stayed in someone's home." "You know, they always want the same thing..." "The master, the slave screwing in front of everyone." "It's such a drag sometimes." "It's a hard job." "Let's go out." " Yes." "Even the eye wants its part." "Have you seen the oven?" "We used it to make bread." "It was made at home before." "Do they always follow the same itinerary?" " Yes, two of them go to Rome, Naples..." "And the other two drivers..." " What are their names?" "Loconi and Miraglia." "They drive north and abroad." "Loconi lives on our farm with his family..." "Miraglia is single and lives in the village." "And their addresses?" " Miraglia..." "Via Remondini, 31." "Is he working?" " No, not right now..." "It's early, maybe around midday." "He's got another delivery." "With a substance that's very rich, they produce cells which destroy all the organic elements." "This method..." " All of the organic pollutants." "There..." "Great." "You understood it..." "One of these days I'll show you my inventions, my machines..." "They call them toys but they aren't toys" "Hide behind me." "Antonio." "Have you seen the drunk?" "No, I haven't seen him." "Alfiero." "I'm looking for the drunk but I can't find him." "Want me to help you?" " No, I can manage." "I'll find him." "You'll be safe in here." "Come." "Sit yourself down here." "That machine you invented..." "Like you." "I, however, have created the perfect man." "And you'll see him..." "Very soon." "Tonight, even." "Hi." "Please come in." " Good morning." "Please." "The mirrors are all deformed." " Yes..." "All deformed." "It's my husband's new invention." "Shall we dance?" "Look at them." "You dance well." "Alfiero." "Hey, champagne." " He brought us something to drink." "Open it." "Come on, get undressed." "Don't be shy." "Antonio..." "Your friend is waiting for you downstairs." "There." "Like worms..." "Just as I wanted to show you." " Well?" "Shall we go?" "Max..." "Wake up." "Did you see?" "I must have fallen asleep." "I guess I fell asleep as well." "No, I don't think so..." "Someone must have moved us." "Or it was us, drunk..." "Look, I don't remember a thing." "My head." "I reckon they drugged us." "Perhaps they did it to get us to do what they want?" "So much hassle to see us together." "That's their problem." "I swear they've got hashish in the house as well." "It looks like a toy." " What did you say?" "I said it looks like a toy." "Max." "Where are you going?" " Can't you hear?" "They're arguing." "You're a goat." "A goat." "You can't understand." "The misunderstood genius." "You're immature." " You don't understand my poetic world." "Science is poetry." "I'm not interested in money." " If it wasn't for me you'd be like those drunks sleeping under bridges." "He was a happy man." " Idiot, you're an idiot..." "Only money brings happiness..." "Money buys you the will to live." "With money you can have power..." "With money you are a God." "Look, fool." "Money isn't my destiny." "Your destiny." "Sure..." "Your manias." "Your crazy games." "Please don't, Nina." " You're a paranoid lunatic." "And you?" "Sucking the blood from others." "600,000 in the last six months." "Do you call that madness?" "You talk like a shopkeeper." "If I didn't take care of you who would've put you in contact with Ritter?" "Who?" "It was me." "What would you have done without my science?" "Without my creations?" "Your creations?" "You're so ridiculous..." "I left you to play like a child." "I don't know why I put up with you." "If I wanted to, I could destroy you in a second." "Nina, be careful." " You're really scaring me." "You're a worm." "A dirty beetle." "What are you doing?" "Stop these foolish games." "See this?" "You're fired, scientist." "Alfiero." "Nina." "Leave me alone." " What's wrong with you?" "Tell me what's wrong?" "He's an animal." "I can't put up with him anymore." "Why?" "What has he done to you?" "You see..." "I needed him because he had money." "Damned pig." "I can't bear it when he touches me." "We don't need him anymore." "We don't need him anymore." "Excuse me, lady..." "I'm looking for Via Remondini." " It's round the corner on the left." "Max, I don't like this place." "Let's go away." "Don't be afraid." "We'd should leave and this is the ideal time." "Come on, run." " Will we leave the others here?" "Yes, come on." "Damn, it's closed." "Look how beautiful." "They gave them to me..." "They're mine." "Look how beautiful." "They really gave them to me." "Don't you believe me?" "Would you like one?" "I'm so generous." "Let me see them." "I'll give them back to you." "I know something about them, my father owns a jewellery shop." "They're real." " What do you mean?" "This is real gold." "Real diamonds." "These are zephyrs." "An emerald as well." "Look." "I know my sister's jewellery well." "They're just imitations." "They suit you." "Come, let's follow him." "We have to go down there." "I think these people are hiding something terrible..." "I'm sure of it." "Let's go down to the basement." "Come on, let's go." "But I'm scared." "Stay here if you're scared." " What?" "Here by myself?" "I'd prefer to go with you." " Then let's go." "Do you know why she gave you that jewellery?" "It seemed ridiculous." " Right, last cigarette before execution." "See?" "False alarm." "What's this?" "It looks like blood." "Don't you notice that strange smell?" "It smells like rotten meat." "Organic substances." "There are enough tomatoes here for a lot of spaghetti." "It really is tomato." "Let's find out where he went." "This is strange..." "First he opens them then he closes them." "It's so cold." "It's just a big fridge." "I'm going in." "This is Venamina." "It's absurd." " Please, let's get out of here." "Is Mr Miraglia here?" "He just came in." " Can you get him?" "Yes, sir." " Thank you." "Miraglia, Antonio?" " Yes." "May I ask you some questions?" " Where?" "Here, if you want?" " Very well." "So, Miraglia..." "You like expensive whiskey?" " Why not?" "Is it illegal?" "No..." "You've got two million in cash hidden inside a book at your home." "Who are you?" "You don't have the right." "I'm with the police." "Look, Miraglia, it's better if you talk..." "Tell me everything you know." "It will be better for you." "I don't know anything." "I haven't done anything..." "Ask the owner, I've never even stolen a bottle of wine." "I'm not talking about robbery." "Miraglia, this is serious..." "Murder." " Murder?" "I thought..." " What did you think?" "Nothing." " What do you mean, animal?" "What do you know?" " I don't know anything." "I didn't know, I thought it was contraband." "Contraband?" "What kind of contraband?" "Jewellery and gold." " Where did you take the wine?" "To Piacenza." " Where in Piacenza?" "I took it..." " Where?" "You animal, talk!" "To our customers." "Just people." "Who did you take it to?" "Where?" "There's a shop..." "On Via Cavour, Mr Genovese." "Tell me." "Where does Genovese live?" "I want his address." "He lives on Via Philipeschi, 26." "Right here?" "In front of everyone?" "You guys are crazy." "Couldn't we play some jollier music?" "How much are you going to pay me for this smashing show?" "Sure, all that jewellery you gave me is worth a lot." "Well?" "Whose turn is it first?" "Which group?" "What are you waiting for?" "What is it?" "A new game?" "With other groups?" "Who am I with?" "Can I choose?" "Why don't you answer me?" "I'd like to be the first." "What are you doing?" "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Come on." "Here it comes." "It's time." "You're insane." "You're all completely insane." "I've taken my precautions." "The wine..." "The wine is transported on our yacht." "Towards the Orient, Vietnam, Bolivia..." "Wherever there are wars, and injured people." "Blood is worth a lot." "More than petrol or gold..." "It's used to save the lives of those who can afford to pay me for it." "I always follow a preordained plan." "A line of conduct..." "You've seen my victims..." "They're worthless people." "Prostitutes, drunks, gypsies and vagabonds." "Like those two." "People who are out of work, no families..." "People without roots." "No one will cry for them." "Their blood is worth more than their lives." "Alfiero, put that whore on the table." "You won't feel a thing." "Start the robot." "Done." "Stop the robot." "Antonio, you go." "It's better." " Yes, of course." "Who is it?" " Testa sent me." "Yes, but who are you?" " I'm Miraglia..." "Okay, I'll open up." "You're not Miraglia." " No, I'm not Miraglia..." "Antonio Genovese?" " Yes, I'm Antonio Genovese." "I know exactly who you are." "I have to search the villa." " But you can't come in." "Where is this music coming from?" " My wife must be listening to it." "Your wife is listening to music." " Yes, in the cellar." "Good." "Go on..." "I'm going." " Go." "I'm going." "You killed him." "Idiot..." "You've ruined me." "You and your stupid toys." "You've destroyed everything." "You're a worthless being..." "Worthless like your inventions." "You should've died." "Yes, you should've died as well." "You've never understood." "Understood?" "I should have killed you before." "I should have killed you." "Killed..." "Come on, chin up." "She was a real monster." " Sure." "She planned everything..." "Her precedents, her family, her political beliefs..." "The investigation I carried out." "All conceived in her criminal mind." "But I'm a scientist." "I invented this machine." "The earth populated by pygmies and deformed beings..." "Mortality is a myth of the past." "I will realise the immortality of man..." "In a dynamic technology." "I have this power." "Of course." "You're right." "Come..." "Come with me." "Yes, yes." "I'm coming." "This masterpiece of modern cinema was subtitled by Merlin for cinemageddon." "February 2009"
