"Sorry to make you wait." "I ran your tests again, although the diagnosis didn't leave much doubt." "I'm sorry, but I can only confirm what we've already said:" "You're not able to have children." "Cases of azoospermia like yours are quite rare and we don't understand what causes it." "Anyway you and your wife can consider other options." "And how is Dad?" "All right." "A big hug, see you soon." "You're funny." "It bugs me when you watch me sleep." "I don't know how you can live here." "That's it, I'm leaving." "When will you come and stay with me?" "Never." "I'll be on my own, my father's going away, we'll have the house to ourselves." "Weren't you going home now?" "Later." "Our managers advise us to move our liquidity into bonds." "We could split our portfolio into fixed-rate bonds, they could take off suddenly." "Anyway you've got time to think it over." "Bye." "Speak tomorrow." "I was expecting you ten minutes ago." "Did you hear what I was saying?" "It could have concerned you too." "Of course, you have no collateral and considering your position..." "My position with this bank is already back to normal." "Unfortunately, it's with you that there's still..." "Mr. Ledeux, I'm trying to meet you halfway as much as I can." "And I guarantee that my company is on the way up again." " It's only a matter of..." " Another month?" "I like you." "You're interesting." "I always wondered why you opened your company here in Turin." "Surely Geneva would have offered you greater opportunities?" "Depends how you look at it." "Is your wife aware of this debt?" "You know perfectly well my wife knows nothing about it." "Pity, seeing as you and your wife have a joint account, you could have dipped into it." "I told you my wife has nothing to do with this." "I need another month, Mr. Neri." "You were supposed to settle by today, and as you can't do that, and we don't want to involve your wife, a week ought to be more than sufficient." "That's all I can do." "I'm sorry." "What are you doing in my car?" "I'm sorry, I didn't feel well." "Please, get out." "That's not very kind." "They could've stolen your car if I hadn't been here." "Do you need money?" "Then what do you want?" "I'm not well." "I'll take you to the hospital." "No need, I know these attacks." "Take me home, please." "Please." "75 Do me a favor, open that cabinet." "Are you sure you don't need a doctor?" "Do me a favor, open that cabinet." "My medication's there, give it to me." "The bottom shelf, a blue and white box." "Thank you." "There's a bottle of water in the fridge, could you get it for me?" "They're very strong, I only take half." "Will you cut it for me, please?" "The knives are there." "Thank you." "Panic attacks are horrible." "You think you're going to die." "Are you scared of dying?" "No." "Who do you live with?" "On my own." "Are you French?" "Don't like talking about yourself." "I prefer listening to others." "Do you live here in Turin?" "No." "So why are you here?" "Just passing through." "Does your family live in France?" "Yes." "Got any kids?" "Two." "What are their names?" "Cécile and Bruno." "I have to go." "Take care of yourself now." "You didn't tell me your name." "Vincent." "Goodbye, Vincent and thanks for your help." "Bruno!" " How are you?" " Fine." "I didn't hear you come in, when did you get here?" "Now." "You look more like him every day." "Come on, let's sit in there." "How's the exhibition coming?" "Mom gets back from London tomorrow." "She hasn't stopped for a moment." "Thankfully, we're on the home stretch." "It'll be Dad's biggest solo exhibition." "We also traced one of his first portraits." "Just imagine, Dad gave it away without telling anyone." "He didn't give presents for others, but for himself, to feel good." "Can you close the curtain?" "The light bothers me, I've got a migraine." "I had to sell "The Mirage"." "It wasn't a great deal, but I had to." " How did Mom take it?" " Badly." "Sometimes, I feel sorry for her, she lives in terror that someone will make a claim on what we've got left." "Years ago, I discovered by chance the son he had from his German mistress worked at the Hotel du Lac" "I spent a night there, just to see." "When he registered me, he went pale." "He was very nice to me." "I wasn't, I behaved like a real jerk." "How do you feel?" "Better." "What time is it?" "Nearly four." "I'm leaving in an hour." "Take it." "It's on the nightstand." "It doesn't cover the sum, but it's all I can manage." "Thank you." "What will you do for the rest?" "I'll find a solution." "This check should calm him down for a while." "Can I get you anything?" "No, it's nearly gone." "Did the guy at the Hotel du Lac look like you?" "No, he didn't look like either of us." "In the end, Dad chose family, he stayed here with those he loved." "Sorry, the way you said it made me laugh." "Why, how did I say it?" "As if you believed it." "Why did you keep the debt from Anne?" "I don't know." "How did the business dinner go?" "I thought you'd be asleep." "I dozed off on the couch, I was waiting for you." "I told you I'd be late." " Didn't you get my message?" " Yes." "But I wanted to wait up for you." "And what did you do today?" "Nothing special." "I saw Sandra, she says hi." "And then?" "Then I went shopping," "I bought some shelves for the study." "We still need so much for the house..." "In the evening I saw this really sad movie about a famous singer who loses her voice at the height of her career" "and the man who lives with her stops loving her like that, without a word." "How does it end?" "I don't know," "I left before the end." "Maybe we think about this baby too much." "It'll come, I know." "Hello, I have an appointment with Mr. Neri." "He's not in." "We haven't heard from him for two days, we're a bit worried." "I can get you in to see Arnaldi," " I'll tell him you're here." " No, it doesn't matter." "Excuse me, I'm in a bit of a hurry, goodbye." " Good morning, Mr. Ledeux." " Hello." "A coffee." "Actually, a cognac." "Thank you." "Vincent..." "Hello." "Hello." "Sit down." "Excuse me, another vodka." "I was nodding off." "Maybe you're drinking too much." "I'm drinking to celebrate." "What?" "Something." "You have something to celebrate too." "You got a weight off your shoulders today." "Tell me only if I'm wrong." "It was a large sum, almost 200,000 euros." "Bruno." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "I know you come to this bar, I wanted to get to know you better." "Just to find out who my father's victims are." "He keeps a special register, he's very meticulous." "Why did you tell me that stuff?" "That your name's Vincent..." "What do you want from me?" " To be your friend." " I don't." "Why?" "Why are you treating me like this?" "Why are you treating me like this?" "I'm not like him!" "I don't know you and I don't want to know you!" "Where's Mattia?" "Hello." " Hello." " Look who's here, it's Bruno!" " Look, he's smiling at you." " He's smiling at you." "Sandra asked me to look after him." "You're home early." "I finished early." "You've been keeping me company!" "Here, hold him." "Put your hand here." " Like this?" " No, underneath." "Why did you lie to me the other day?" "You went to Geneva," "I saw the ticket on the table." "I went to see Cécile." "We could have gone together, no?" "Who's here?" "It's your mommy!" "Your mother called today." "She was very sweet, she even asked after my parents." "We had a long talk, it's the first time we've done that." "She was nice because she's scared I won't go to the opening." " We're going, no?" " Now you're worried about it too?" "I don't care about the exhibition," "I thought it was important for you." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry I've been like this lately." "I'm sorry I lied to you." "Something's wrong, isn't it?" "Problems at work?" "Yes, but I'm fixing them, don't worry." "See what a dive from the bridge?" "You'd never have done something like that." "What are you thinking about?" "Nothing." "It's not true, you think I'm full of shit." "Good luck, Luca." "Thank you." "Don't worry about your father, they'll find him." "Why did you say that?" "Why?" "You know perfectly well I hated him like everyone he holds to ransom, including you." "You shouldn't have saved me yesterday." "You should've left me to rot in the water." "I told them we were running late, they've just arrived at the hotel." "Was there traffic on the highway?" "Yes." "What's wrong?" "You're pale." "I'm exhausted." "I've been driving for hours and I slept badly last night." "Did it go well at least?" "So so..." "I didn't know you had business in Zurich." "You think I'm lying again?" "No, Bruno." "I don't think anything." "I finally decided on a camera." "A good idea for their trip, right?" "Yes." "Why do you accept everything in silence?" "Why are you so good, so understanding?" "Why don't you open that door and send me packing?" " I'm wondering myself." " Then do it!" "Maybe you don't do it so you can feel stronger." "Whereas I just feel like a shit." "I can't have children, Anne." "I've done all the tests." "When?" "A month ago." "I don't know why I didn't tell you." "Maybe there's been a mistake." "No, I did them twice." "I'm sterile." "There's your father..." "Here, you take it." "Excuse me, can you deliver this package to Mr. And Mrs. Rivière?" " Your name?" " Bruno Ledeux." "Thank you." "I thought you hadn't come back." "What time is it?" "Almost midnight." "It's still raining, it looks like it'll never stop." "I hope I didn't completely ruin your dinner." "There was no dinner, when I saw you go away, I went out to look for you and then I just kept walking..." "Where did you go?" "I wandered around, I went to a café." "Then I went back to reassure them, they were so worried..." "What time are they leaving tomorrow?" "Early in the afternoon." "They'll drop in on their way back." "Have you eaten?" "Shall I make you something?" "Thanks, I'm not hungry." "The receiver is a friend, we were at university together." "He's been suggesting this operation to me for a long time." "Are you sure about this?" "We draw cash from secret funds." "And then I bring the books to court in at least two or three weeks." "Yes?" "Yes." "I can't right now." "Delay the transaction, I don't care." "STILL NO TRACE OF BANK MANAGER, AFTER A WEEK" "Eurocity 124 for Geneva leaving from platform 14." "It is this that characterizes his artistic output." "His wife followed him for the whole journey." "I'd like to thank her." "I'll hand you over to Madame Ledeux who'll describe the tormented bond between the artist and his work," "reading her husband's words." ""I lose touch with the canvas in every moment and I find it again." "And so my gaze becomes someone else's." "I don't know how to measure the importance of the subconscious:" "One day reason acts as a filter and the next it's unable to control my deepest instincts." "The urge that drives me to build is the same that drives me to destroy."" "What are you doing there alone?" "Nothing." "He'll be waiting for us at home." "Let's go back inside." ""I lose touch with the canvas and then I find it again." "And so my gaze becomes someone else's."" "I didn't know you were the son of an artist." "What are you doing here?" "I'm not stalking you." "A few days ago, I saw the poster for the exhibition." "For a moment, I thought the photo was you." "You're identical." "Do you remember all his pictures?" "There are some I haven't even seen." ""The Mirage"." "It's beautiful, striking." "It has incredible energy." "All those lines look like spider webs." "They're my sister's and my fingerprints." "We were kids." "Did he paint every day?" "Almost always." "We have to go, they're closing up." "This one has a weird effect with the light off." ""The Other Wall"." "He worked on it for months." "He kept doing and undoing it with my mother coming and going between the house and the hotel." "Why the hotel?" "I was small, I had pneumonia, he didn't want to get sick." "That's why he moved into the hotel." ""No Quality to the Heroes"." " And these lines?" " In the dark it's hard to see." "They're stitches." "He slashed the canvas then stitched it with nylon and string." "They look like wounds." "What do they mean?" "There have been a lot of interpretations." "But in the end, no one knows." "Not even you?" "No." "My father hated this work." "He wanted to burn it." "For the critics it was a masterpiece." "This is where his success started." "Was he a failed artist before that?" "Misunderstood." "And do you like it?" "At the time, we were used to hating what he hated." "And do you like it?" "I don't know." "This city looks like it's made to order for you, so clean and tidy." "How long ago did you move away?" "Nearly ten years ago." "Was your father already dead?" "No." "You still haven't stopped hating him." "At a certain point I thought you'd left without me." "And where would I have gone?" "I don't know." "There's no place I want to go." "None at all." "Once I could stay in a hotel room for days on end, staring at the ceiling." "I knew it was night because I was cold." "All the cities looked the same." "Nothing made sense." "Then you came." "Or rather, I came to you." "There are times when you absolutely have to go to someone." "Bruno..." "If we want, we can still have kids." "We can explore other options..." "I lose touch with the canvas in every moment and I find it," "And it's as if I were someone else looking at things." "I don't know how to measure the importance of the subconscious, since one day reason acts as a filter and the next it's unable to control my deepest instincts I lose touch with the canvas and I find it again..." "Sorry, did I hurt you?" " No." " Sorry again." "He was about 25, he seemed nice." "He apologized, he smiled at me." "I'm an idiot, I don't pay attention," "I just go around..." "It could have happened to anyone." "I had all my documents..." "We'll get them again." "I tried to ask for help, but I couldn't think of one word of Italian." "Why did we decide to live here?" "What I am doing in this city?" "It's almost like being in exile..." "Bruno!" "Something terrible's happened." "My girlfriend's run away." "How did you get in?" "I took them from your car." "You have to help me, she's gone, what am I going to do?" "Get out now!" "Help me look for her, please!" "Wait for me out there." "Where are we going?" "Where are we going?" "I don't know, if I don't find her straight away, I've lost her." "You broke into my house like a thief." "I needed silence, she wouldn't stop asking questions." "It's all my fault, I treated her like a dog." "She kept asking the same thing, torturing me." "What could I do?" "What could I do?" "Tell the truth, that you killed your father!" " Where am I?" " At my place." "We had an accident." "Luckily someone stopped to help us." "What time is it?" "3:30." "My head's killing me." "Here." "These drops will get rid of it." "Elisa's not coming back." "I'll be here all on my own." "I was sitting right here." "The light was off like it is now." "I was hoping he wouldn't come back." "When I heard the door," "I almost started crying." "I would be the last time I'd hear that sound." "He had his own way of opening and closing it, a light click then a louder one." "Always the same sound." "Then he'd come directly up here, he never came from downstairs, maybe because he had something to hide." "He had always something to hide." "When he turned on the light and he saw me like this... he asked me what I was doing in his room." "I didn't answer him." "He told me again to get out." "I didn't go." "He came over to me and he took me by the arm." "He said, "Are you deaf?"" "I stood up and stabbed him." "He looked at me." "For the first time he was afraid." "He staggered back, doubled up." "I just stood there." "I was hoping he'd get away." "Then I went over and stabbed him again... and again..." "Until he fell on the floor." "For a moment I thought he was smiling at me." "Bruno, I wanted to set you up." "That's why I wanted to meet you." "Here." "I buried it next to my father." "I used one that was identical, but I wanted them to find this one." "You used it when you came here." "Why me?" "Because you had the biggest debt." "I'm a scumbag, aren't I?" "...was found buried in a field ...was found buried in a field near Turin." "The interrogation of his son, Luca Neri, yielded elements that led to his arrest." "That's all for now, more news at 4 o'clock." "1 o'clock." "And now, "Music for the Afternoon"." "Bruno?" "What happened?" "I ran off the road." "Last night?" "Yes." "Does it hurt?" "No." "Don't, I'm dirty." "It doesn't matter." "Leave me alone, I'm dirty." "When I woke up and you weren't there" "I didn't know whether to look for you." "I thought about what you used to say." "That I made you happy." "No one had ever told me that, and that gave my life meaning." "What's happening to you, Bruno?" "Tell me." "I don't know anymore." "What am I supposed to do now?" "What am I supposed to do?" "Goodbye, Bruno, I'm leaving." "Where are you going?" "I don't know, to my parents', then who knows." "Call me if you want." "Sorry to make you wait." "I'm sorry, I don't have any ID." "It doesn't matter." "Date of birth and residence." "Born in Geneva, August 11, 1962." "I live in Turin, on Corso Ferrari, 22." "And you're married." "Name and surname of your wife?" "Anne Rivière." " Do you have children?" " No." "So tell me, Mr. Ledeux." "It was me." "I killed Luca Neri's father." "One night I went to his house, I had a debt with him..."
