"Here I am, this is me." "3 years ago on October 27th,  my 37th birthday." "Who's picking me up today?" "Today's Monday." "Mom's coming." "Bye, Sveva." "Bye." "Are you working today?" "could have been my lover...  but she was just one of many." "where I'd end up at night." "of living this way ended." "KISS ME AGAIN" "This is me today." "I'm considering being with only one woman again." "She's called Anna, she's 25 in May,  whereas I'll be 40 in 4 months." "The age of maturity, they say." "Sveva, daddy's here." "Good afternoon." "So the teacher said:" ""If you knowwhat a pterodactyl is, you must knowwhat a brontosaurus is."" "Dad, do you knowwhat a brontosaurus is?" "Yes, it's the really big one... with a long neck, that eats leaves." " That's the one." " Say bye to Anna." " Bye, Anna." " Bye, honey." " How many days till I see you?" " Three days, okay?" "Hello." "Hi, Sveva." " Isn't Giulia home?" " She's on her way." "Do you want to go in or wait for mom with me?" " I'll go in, don't worry." " Bye, darling." " I love you." " I love you too." " If she'd told me, we'd have waited." " I don't knowwhat to say." "Goodbye." "She wasn't there." "I brought her back when she wanted and she wasn't there." "Carlo, enough." "You can't let her ruin your life." "She's doing it on purpose." " This is the third time." " Come on, calm down." "How can I calm down?" "There's a kid involved." " Will you love me like you loved her?" " Of course." "I already do." "I'll never love her the same way,  she's right." "go the way they did?" "After reciprocal betrayals,  the situation with my wife worsened." "to find out what we wanted." "I found a house nearby." "She fell in love and asked for a divorce." "Now he lives in my house." "Simone." "An actor, out of work for years." "He does the occasional advert." "An actor who's tone-deaf and talentless is called a "dog"." "ln his case, the term is perfect." "with my wife for 2 and a half years." "With my money, sleeping in my bed." "Do it again." "Because officially," "ex-husband and ex-wife" "at 11:30 in room 23 of the Civil Court." "After that day, the dog will continue sleeping in my bed," "then only be my ex-wife" "my name from her documents," "custody of our daughter Sveva," "that we destroyed." " You're never on time." " I was held up at the office." "She'll be given a book every day, make sure she reads it." "She should read by herself, we shouldn't read to her." "Simone's lived in England and reads better than us so that's fine." " She should read them herself." " That's what I was saying." " Will you let her speak?" " It'd be good for the accent." "Of course, they've already told us." "So don't make her do her homework with him unless you want the three of us here:" "Me, you and the actor." " Who?" " The actor." "He's an actor!" " Calm down now." " I only invited him along!" "You're provoking me!" "It's best if I see you separately at the next meeting, okay?" "I have other parents to see now..." "Sorry." "Goodbye." "Shit, how embarrassing!" " Don't ever substitute him for me." " I've never done that." " That's not what Sveva says." " Why, what does she say?" "She saw you both in the bath, naked." " There's nothing wrong with that." " Oh really?" "So it's normal for my daughter to see your boyfriend's pecker?" "I'm speechless." " Alberto?" " He's landing at 9:40." " I'll pick you up at 8:30, okay?" " Okay." "See you later, bye." "A stoup with an angel..." "Here it is." "Four packs of wooden crosses." " It's me." " I know." " He's landing at 9:40." " I told you I'm not coming." " We're all going, Paolo." " What do you want?" "Leave me alone!" "Fine..." " Valextra, good morning." " He's landing at 9:40." "Paolo, calm down and don't worry." "How can I look him in the eyes?" "What if he wants to meet?" "Think about what he did to me, you'll be fine." "I can't talk now." "I'll call you later, darling." "Damn the day I was born!" "Shit!" "I was patient, I waited until she felt confident again." " Do you still screw?" " How can you ask me that?" "Come on!" "How often?" "When was the last time you did it?" " The last time..." " Tell us, come on." " It's been a while." " How long?" " A while, six weeks..." " Six weeks, are you crazy?" " That's ages!" " What can I do?" "This obsession with having a baby has driven us crazy." "I told you marriage was crap..." "I told you too." "Why don't you adopt one?" "You don't know the kid, its genes..." "Then when they're 16 they leave you for their real father." " Were you always so conservative?" " He's got worse with age." " Do you really vote for Fini now?" " Why "now"?" "There he is." "Adriano!" " Alberto!" " Look at the state of him!" "I knew you'd make it." "How are you?" "Welcome back." "Is this all your luggage?" " Shall we go?" " Of course." "It was supposed to be temporary but I've been here 3 years." "This is my room and this is Sveva's but the bed's too small." "You can sleep here, it's comfortable enough." "Here." "I'll get your sheets later." " It's great." " The bathroom's there." "Have you seen Matteo?" "We've seen him grow up... over the last few years." " How is he?" " He's fine." "Sure, his dad disappears for 10 years and he's fine..." " Come on, Marco." " I'd be ashamed of myself." " Who's to say I'm not?" " What were you thinking... bringing two kilos of cocaine into Italy." "I assure you I'm paying for all the mistakes I made." "Sorry." "Where's Paolo?" "How come he's not here?" "He had a problem with his mother." " How is he?" " He's on medication." " What kind of medication?" " What medication?" " Medication." " Medication." "Let's go and see him." "He doesn't want to see anyone anymore." "What are you saying?" "Are you nuts?" "I want to see him." " Don't tell me you want to come here." " We're on our way." "We're the only friends he has left." "What the hell!" "Do whatever you fucking want!" " Don't worry if he seems down." " It happens at times." "At times." "How the hell are you?" " You made it!" " How are you?" " Great." " Why didn't you want to see me?" "No, it's my mom." "She can't get up." "Mom!" " Hi, Adriano." " Hello, ma'am." "How are you?" "I'm fine, and you?" "I heard about what happened." "Leave him alone." "We haven't all been together for 10 years, let's celebrate." "Let's go out!" "Come on, let's go." "Don't worry, ma'am." "Paolo, cut it out!" " So you're okay." " I told you, I'm great." "My new doctor has given me the right medication, unlike the one who said I'm schizophrenic." "Schizophrenic my ass!" "Doctors knowjack-shit about what goes on in our heads." "Brains are a mass of chemical energy." "You can't open it to study it, there's nothing to see." "Our brains are a miracle, you know?" "My vision is simply better than others'." "I see how awful the world is, I get depressed and want to die." "So doctors give you medication that numbs your sight and makes you see reality as others see it." "You're the ones with the problem, not me." "There's no more water." "Bastards, put the water back!" "This is a great day!" "This is where all our dreams began." "Am I doing this by myself?" "If it hadn't been for that tornado, we'd still be there." "That's old news, forget it or you'll get nowhere." "I think Veronica's cheating on me." " Or she's about to." " She has already..." "Don't depress us with your mid-life crisis, we don't give a damn!" " Sooner or later, I'll leave again." " No, you'll stay here like us." " I'll leave, you'll see." " Alberto, wake up." "We've been there, we've done it and we've come back." "It's over." "You make me feel depressed." "Come down, don't be stupid." "I'm glad you're back." " Hello?" " I saw him." "Paolo... what time is it?" "I didn't tell him." "I didn't have the guts." "I'm a coward." "Maybe it wasn't the right time." "I'm a coward, I'm ashamed of myself." "Darling, don't be." "Stop it." "Can I come by?" " Now?" " Now." "Matteo wakes up in 4 hours." "What'll I tell him?" "He knows all about us." "Paolo..." "I love you." "Now try to sleep and don't have any bad thoughts." "Okay." " Goodnight, darling." " Goodnight." "I love you too." "You just got back?" "Same time you did." "How is Adriano?" "Not bad..." "Did you go out with them?" "Yes." "With who?" "You're the one who said "them"." "Alessia and Laura, the only friends I have left." "What do you see in those frustrated neurotics?" "Worried I'll end up like them?" "Maybe I already am..." "Goodnight." "Sorry, I didn't want to wake you." "I'm Anna, sorry." "I'm Carlo's girlfriend." "Did you sleep okay?" "Yes, what time is it?" "It's 8:30, I'm going to work." "Listen... do you need anything?" "Shirt... jacket... and some trousers." "Take this too, it's prepaid." "I hardly ever use it." " Bye." " Carlo..." "Could you help me work with you again?" "I know I'm in bad shape... but if you help me, I'll get back to my old self." "Adriano, you've been out of the business for years... and loads of people are getting fired right now." "To be honest, there's no chance they'd hire you again." " Or else I would've told you." " Sorry." "Now focus on yourself, try and get back on track." " Okay." " Bye." " What do you want to be?" " When I grow up?" "No!" "What are you saying, dad?" "I've got ages yet." " As a kid, I wanted to be a sailor." " Why a sailor?" "I wanted to discover the world, go where others couldn't follow me." "I know that doesn't make much sense now." " You know how much I love you?" " Know how much I love you?" " Do you love me?" " Yes?" "Do you love me?" "How much?" "How much?" "Hi." " Is she asleep?" " Yes." "Come in." " Has she eaten?" " Yes." " Everything?" " Yes, even some salad." " That's a miracle!" " She's starting to like it." " What is it?" " Why?" " I don't know, you're staring at me." " No..." "All right, I'm going." "Bye." "Bye." "Is it good?" "Matteo, would you mind... if I stayed the night here once in a while?" "What are you saying?" " If you won't tell him..." " Stop it, enough." " Then I'll tell him." " You'd better go." "You'd better get up and go." " What about what Matteo thinks?" " I mean it, get up and go." " Don't be like this in front of him." " Then come with me." "You have no respect." " Out you go." " You're throwing me out?" "Don't you ever tell my son anything without consulting me first." "You've put this off for a year." "The truth is that I'm not important to you!" "How long will this farce go on?" "You're such an imbecile." "Thanks for dinner!" "My goodness, he really made me mad tonight." " What did he do?" " He talks a load of nonsense." "But we all do that sometimes." "Let's eat." "How's it going?" "What happened?" "Did something happen?" "Your phone was off all day." " I was with Sveva." " So you had to switch it off?" "I didn't want to be disturbed." " What if I'd needed you?" " Did you?" "Just hy pothetically..." "I said "if"..." "What's the problem?" "I see my daughter on Wednesdays." "What's the problem?" "Anna... it's tough for me to get into the swing of a new relationship." "You're right when you say you're the wrong man for me." "You are the wrong man for me." "I don't know, maybe we should split up." " Is that what you want?" " What do you expect?" "A one-way relationship is no good to me." "I don't deserve it." "I care about you." "I really do care about you." "I don't want you to leave." "No, you don't want to be left alone." "Going out tonight too?" "Yes." "No, like hell you're going out tonight." "What's the problem?" "I haven't been out for years." " You went out last night." " And tonight too." "Let's go out to dinner." "I'm ready." "I'll book and we'll go." "I'm being picked up in a few minutes." " Why don't we talk?" " Dammit, stop insisting!" "Don't use that tone with me." "Is that clear?" "Is that clear or not?" "It's clear." "I don't want you to go out tonight." "I'm not happy, do you understand?" "Change your shrink." "Find a good one!" "If he could get me pregnant, I'd find him tomorrow!" " Here they are." " You're going out with those sluts?" "I'll try not to come back late, okay?" "Veronica!" "Don't disrespect me, okay?" "Understood?" " Hello?" " Is Adriano there?" "Yes, you want to speak to him?" " Of course I do!" " Hold on." "Adriano... it's Paolo." "I'm coming over, we need to talk." "Come down, I don't want Carlo there." " All right." " Come down." "I'm going downstairs for a sec." " What happened?" " We have to talk, don't get mad." "What's this about?" "I've been seeing Livia, for a while." " Livia who?" "My wife?" " Your ex-wife." "What do you mean you're seeing her?" "What do you think?" " You're screwing Livia?" " You're so brutal." "Since when?" " A year ago, more or less." " A year?" "Are you completely nuts?" "Livia is crazy." "Livia is not crazy, she's a wonderful person." " A wonderful person..." " You screwed up by leaving her." " What the hell are you saying?" " The truth." "I wanted to tell you before, but I couldn't." "I don't care if she's seeing you." "You don't?" "No, not at all." "I love her." "I feel bad for you." "How is my son?" "Does he ever ask about me?" "Never?" "You're the one who convinced me to leave." " It was all we could do." " You ruined my life." " You destroyed it." " Don't stress me out, please." "Now you're screwing my wife..." "Paolo," "I don't want to lecture you but you owe me big time and you're going to help me." "What do you need, what can I do?" "I need to find a job." "Excuse me..." "Are you Veronica?" " Yes, who are you?" " Lorenzo." "Lorenzo Bonifaci." "A family friend, you came to our beach house." " In Punta Ala?" " Yes, when we were kids." "Lorenzo, of course!" " How are you?" " Good." "You look so handsome." " Nonsense..." " What do you do?" "I write songs, I do photography, I paint... or I try at least." " What songs do you write?" " Italian songs." " But I sing in French, English..." " I'd really like to hear them." "Come and visit me in the country, I've got a fab house." "It's a house-studio." "I can show you what I do." " All right." " Here's my number." "Give it to us too, we'll come as a group." "How did it go?" "I didn't see you there." "Did you whore around with anyone?" "What am I supposed to do with you?" "Tell me and I'll do it." "Veronica!" "I'm warning you:" "Cheat on me and I'll kill you with my own hands." "I'm old-fashioned." "I have values!" "Understood?" " Yes." " What did I say?" " That I mustn't cheat on you." " Right." "I'd leave you first, okay?" "If you're up for it, you can run this place." "My dad would be happy, so would I." "At least we're not throwing it all away." " You really mean it?" " I really mean it." "Is it a deal?" "It's a deal." "Who is it?" "Hi." "How are you?" "I'm fine." "You should've called first, you dickhead." " How is Matteo?" " Mom!" " Wait for me in your room." " Who is it?" "No one, wait in your room." " Go away, get lost." " Wait." "Wait." "Can we talk about him, just the two of us?" "Tomorrow morning at the café after you've dropped him at school." "He's my son, Livia, and I'm his father." "I'll see you there." "Don't expect anything from me, you shit." " Yes?" " Veronica?" " Lorenzo." " Hi, how are you?" " Fine." " Is this a bad time?" ""Actimel strengthens your natural defenses"." "Let's see what it does." "Let's imagine our protagonist is on a journey... inside the human body." "So... we see the bad bacteria... that enter our bodies and our natural defenses... that protect us." "At this point, our protagonist will explain... how external factors can weaken our natural defenses." "Carlo, do you want to continue?" "Are you all right?" "It's so hot..." "Okay, I'll continue." "Let's see how Actimel and its enzymes... help strengthen our natural defenses." "We have this apartment with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a kitchen and..." "Excuse me a moment." "I'm working." "Sveva's at home." " I'm at the hospital." " I don't understand." "Thanks for coming." "Nothing like this has ever happened to me before." " Do you feel better now?" " What if this cyst is a tumor?" " They'd have told you." " What if they didn't?" "Come on, stop it." "While I was there, I thought about you and Sveva." "Really?" "Your dying thought!" "I only thought of you two." "We've arrived." "Thanks again for coming." "Try and get some rest." " Will your girlfriend look after you?" " Yes, don't worry." "Bye." " Carlo!" " Why didn't you call us?" " I'm fine." " What hospital were you in?" " I've been calling..." " What did they say?" "That I mustn't get stressed." " I've got a sort of cyst on my brain." " A cyst?" " Is it a tumor?" " Anna!" " That's what I thought too." " What else could it be?" " Are you having tests done?" " Over the next few days." " Now I need to sleep." " Did you get a taxi home?" " Giulia picked me up." " Giulia?" " What'll I do if it's a tumor?" " Don't talk bullshit!" "I'm scared of dying." "Has he fainted again?" "Darling!" " I told you I need to sleep." " We were seeing if you were alive." "Sleep." "Hi." "Thanks for coming." "Well?" "I want to correct the mistakes I've made." "Your son has lived his entire life without you." "When he turned one you weren't there." "Nor when he turned 2, 3, 4..." "You can count, right?" "10 years have gone by." "Your son has no father." "Help me get to know him." "As far as I'm concerned, you're dead." "We just need to work out what's best for him." " And so?" " I'll do what's best for him." " Don't call me, I'll call you." " You're leaving already?" "I've supported myself without you, with my job, I'd better not lose it." "Bye, Adriano!" "What am I doing?" "Veronica!" "Hi." "I saw you, you were having second thoughts." "No..." "I thought I was early, I was going for a spin." " I'm happy you came." " So am I." " Shit, you're beautiful." " Great start!" "Cookie... do you ever think about your dad?" "If he were to come back one day, would you like to see him?" "Has he come back?" " Would you like to see him?" " No." " You don't have to tell me now..." " I don't want to." " He'd really like to see you." " I don't want to see him, okay?" "If you don't want to see him, you won't!" "You and I are a team, remember that." "You won't see him." " You did that drawing?" " Yes, do you like it?" " Yes, what is it?" " It's Mount Vesuvius." "The lava's destroying Pompeii." "Do you like it?" "Yes, it's very good." "Honey, you're good at drawing." " Hi." " Hi." "Sveva, will you let me have a word with mommy?" " Shall I get more drawings?" " Yes, good idea." " How are you today?" " Giulia..." " I'm dying." " Don't talk nonsense." "I'm trying to get an appointment with an oncologist." "I've got a tumor, I know it." "When we met, you thought you had 2 years to live." " You won't die this time either." " This time it's different." " You want to see these?" " What are they?" " A flower and a butterfly." " Can I see the flower?" "It's lovely, honey." "And the butterfly?" "I've been calling you all day, your phone was off." "My battery was dead." "How come it's charged now?" " I re-charged it." " Where?" "At Laura's, I re-charged it there." "What are you trying to find out?" "Veronica... am I losing you?" "Marco, please..." "Please." "Marco, did you hear that?" "How many girls have you slept with?" "I haven't counted them!" "Probably around... 200." "200?" "No way!" "Yes way!" "Probably more." "A whole lot more..." "And if you look back, how do you see yourself?" "Better off than the guys I grew up with." "St. Christopher, St. Francis with a wolf..." "Here they are." " Hello?" " Is Paolo there, please?" "Livia!" " Adriano?" " Yes, it's me." " Why are you there?" " I work here." " You work there?" " Yes, I do." " Is Paolo there?" " No." " I haven't heard from him in days." " He won't answer my calls either." "If you see him, tell him I called." " Did you speak to Matteo?" " Yes, he doesn't want to see you." "Try to respect his wishes." "Bye." "40 cm Madonna." " Welcome back, how are you?" " Better, thanks." " What did they say?" " They don't knowwhat it is." "You had us worried." "When I saw you in the ambulance, I said: "He's a goner"!" "I'm still here." "I have to make a call, see you later." "Bye." " So, how are you?" " A bit weak still, but better." " I'm sorry I made you look bad." " What matters is that you're okay." " They still don't knowwhat it is." " What did they say?" "I've got a congenital cyst under my skull which may have caused me to faint." " Therefore?" " I have to do more tests." "I hope they find out what it is." "I hope it's not a tumor!" " No way!" " Doctors get it wrong all the time!" "It may also be my heart." "My dad died of a heart attack." "And I feel a bit short of breath too." "What time is our meeting with TIM?" "Can I be frank with you?" "Go home for the day." " But we've got work to do!" " I'll do it." "You're stressed." " I can still work." " This can't happen again." "We'll be a laughing stock if you faint again." "I don't want to worry." "When you're better, come back." "When you're no longer checking your pulse..." "Listen, come back when you're in tip-top shape." "Yes, I'm coming." "Paolo, are you there?" "Paolo!" " He doesn't want to see anyone." " Let me talk to him." " We're here." " Really?" "I can't believe it, you live in the middle of nowhere." "Come with me." "Have you stopped your medication?" "I don't need it." "I'm fine like this." "If you want me to trust you, you have to do something." "Do you understand, darling?" "Look at me." "You're not alone, okay?" "Damn you..." " Did you take these photos?" " Yes, all of them." "Tell me you haven't slept with them all." " Not all of them." " Just a few?" " Just a few." " A few?" "Come here, look." "This was on display at Paris Photo." "Do you know it?" "No." "It's a section of the Louvre where they display the best photos." "It's very prestigious." "Prestigious?" "Will I end up in your archive like them?" "No more talking." "No more talking." "Yessir." "You can have a better life." "You can have a normal life." "You just need to learn to look after yourself." "It all depends on you." "Here." "Swallow them." "Listen, I have to pick Matteo up from school in an hour." "Why not get washed and come with me?" "I love you, Livia." "I really love you." "I love you like I've never loved anyone." "Thanks for everything you do for me." "Even if I don't understand why you do it." "It's about time you understood!" "And this is the living room with a balcony that goes..." "Excuse me a moment." " Why are you here?" " Your office said you'd be here." "I wanted to talk to you." " Finish up here, I'll wait outside." " All right." "Goodbye." " Thanks, goodbye." " Goodbye." " I have to close the windows." " I'll help you." "What happened?" " Do you still feel weak?" " I'm better, thanks." "If by chance I die soon," "I'd like to say some things to you that I haven't before." "Such as?" "There have been some great things that we haven't noticed." "We wasted too much time doing the wrong things." " You came here to tell me this?" " Yes, that too." "What else?" "Well?" "Maybe we could have done more to save our family." "You always said our marriage was a prison for you." " It's bullshit." " Bullshit?" "You realized that while you were dying?" " I really tried to get over you." " So I can see!" "How many women have you had since?" " How many men have you had?" " Well, I got over you." " I didn't." " Too bad." "You ruined everything for a screw." "Blame yourself and leave me alone!" " Are you happy with him?" " Please!" " Tell me." " He's kind." " What does that mean?" " That's a lot compared to you." " Stop it, you cheated on me too." " To make you pay." "You ruined everything out of revenge." " I loved you more than anything." " Same here." " How did we manage to ruin it all?" " Why did you come?" " I don't know." " Neither do I." " I told you what was important." " You shouldn't have." "You knowwhat?" " Fuck you." " Fuck you." " How did your history test go?" " I got a B." "Really?" " Well done!" " Great." "You got a B, honey!" " Fasten the seat belt." " Wait here in the car with Matteo." "I'll be right back." "Don't move." "Are you spying on us?" "I told you Matteo doesn't want to see you." " I want to see him." " He doesn't want to see you." "After 10 years you remember your son, now you're breaking our balls?" " Livia, calm down." " Help me see him." " She's still the bitch she was." " You're not seeing anyone!" " Calm down, we'll sort this out." " Get lost!" " Don't get involved." " Calm down." "Get lost." "Let's go, Paolo." "Paolo, please." "Help me." "I just want to see him for 2 hours, please." "Okay, I'll try." "I'll try." "It's nothing, honey." "Let's go home now." "Bastard." "Is that my father?" "Sorry, honey." "I didn't know he'd be there." "Marco..." "Are you home?" "from drifting into space." "but thanks to anti-gravity suits we'll be in control from now on." "What's wrong, honey?" "Do you need something?" "What is it?" "I want to see him." "You don't have to if you don't want to." "I want to see him." "Hi." "Matteo wants to see you." "He changed his mind." "Pick him up on Sunday at 1:00 and bring him back by 6:00." "Look at these photos, it's a small part of what you missed and will never get back." "Don't lose them, they're precious." " As well as the cyst..." " Could it be a tumor?" "No, it's not a tumor." "But some of your levels are strange, like your red blood cells." "They're lower than usual, but within the norm." " But this could be a red flag." " Meaning?" " We'll need to do more tests." " Listen..." "If I have a tumor somewhere, you can tell me." "Stop being so pessimistic." "I have no reason to believe that you have a tumor." "Try to avoid stress, if you can." "Of course." "Well, the worst case scenario has been eliminated." "What's wrong with my red blood cells?" "I don't know, I'm worried too." " Giulia." " Will you pick Sveva up?" " Yes." " You'll make her dinner?" " Yes, see you later." " Carlo..." "I wanted to apologize for yesterday." "I'm still so angry with you." "But all those things you said..." "I feel that way too." " Are you there?" " Yes." "I'll see you when you bring her home." "Okay, bye." " What did she want?" " Nothing..." "Just to know if I was picking Sveva up." "Why are you always so meek when you talk to her?" "You don't act like you're about to get divorced." " There's a child involved." " Nonsense." "What else did she say?" " I have to avoid stress." " So I'm stressing you?" " Yes, you are." " I just asked you what she said." " Shall I repeat it?" " Yes." "She asked me if I was picking Sveva up from school." "And?" " That she finds it hard too." " Nowwe hear the truth!" " Stop it, please." " I'm not happy like this." " I'm sorry." " No, you don't give a damn." " What do you want?" " What do I want?" "This is how you treat me?" "What did that bitch do to make you so strung out?" "She was the most important woman in my life and always will be." "And she always will be..." "So why am I here?" "Fuck off!" " Honey, are you hungry?" " Yes." "I'll make you something." "GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING" "Look at me, I can fly!" "Catch me!" "Look at my beautiful angel!" " I love you lots." " Me too." " Hi." "Hi, honey." " Hi, mom." " Are you coming in?" " I can't." "I have to go." "Simone's at the theater." "Okay, I'll come in then." " Simone bought me this." " Simone bought it for you?" "With what money?" " Do you like it?" " Yes, it's very nice." "Honey, I have to go now." "Bye, dad." " I can't wait to see you again." " Me too." "I'll see you out." "What you said on the phone made me very happy." " Take care." " You too." "Bye." "What is it?" "Wait here for me." " Shall we go to bed?" " I'm not tired." " How about a DVD?" " No." "Let's watch TV then." "It's Winx Club!" "Want to watch it?" "Mommy's in the other room." "If you need anything, call me." "Okay." "You're a bastard, I shouldn't even talk to you." "I never stopped loving you." "Neither did I." "Mom, open up?" "I'll be right out." "Mom, come on!" "Wait!" "Mom!" "I'm coming." " Let's get back together." " Get dressed." "Honey, I was in the toilet." " Dad, you're here too." " We were talking about you." " You're all sweaty." " What is it, honey?" "I'm tired, I want to go to bed." "Can you tell me a bedtime story?" "Brush your teeth." "I'll be in soon." "Then the fairy godmother came and said:" ""Pinocchio!" "Where are you?" "Pinocchio!" "Pinocchio..."" "She's asleep." "And then?" "Okay, I'll call you back later." "Giulia, I've got some amazing news." "Hi." "I'm going." "I'll see you out." " I've got some amazing news." " I'll just see him out." " Lunch tomorrow?" " I'll call you." " I'm nothing without you." " Go." "Giulia, want to hear my news?" "I got the job." "Two episodes on prime time TV." " Well done." " That's amazing, Giulia!" "Amazing..." "Yes, go on." "And so?" "Hi." "Sorry, I got held up at the office... until now." "What's going on?" "I need to talk to you." "Shall I sit down?" "What do you need to tell me?" "I can't be with you anymore." "I like someone else." "You like someone else?" "Who the hell is it?" "Who the hell is it?" "Marco, I don't love you anymore." "Love should be reciprocal." "We believe in respect and sincerity." "I don't want to let you down." "I don't recognize you anymore." "We've been happy for years." "Things change." "Let's try to stay calm." "There are two solutions:" "Either I kill you because of what you said or we stop this immediately, okay?" " I don't love you anymore." " Bullshit, that's not true." "I'll ask for a transfer, we'll move to London." " We'll start over again." " I can't be with you anymore." "I'll even accept that you betrayed me." "Holy fucking shit!" " I need to see what's out there." " Don't talk bullshit, shut up!" " Listen to me." " It's too late, Marco!" " Where are you going?" " Out." "To see him?" "To see him?" "I can't bear to see you like this." "Do what I'm doing, try to find what you really want." "I want you." "I want you." "I want you." "Forgive me for hurting you." "Veronica, wait." "Wait." "Wait." "I'll kill you!" "Veronica, open up." "You're a whore!" " Is he sensitive?" " Yes." " Introverted?" " Does he bottle things up?" "Yes, he does." "Is there anywhere he likes going?" "To the zoo, he likes the zoo." "Talk to him about animals, he likes them." "He wants to be a vet when he grows up." " Who is that?" " You should know, it's your house!" " What's up?" " She's gone." " Who?" " That whore I married." "She's with someone else." " What happened?" " My wife's seeing someone else." " Maybe you're wrong." " She told me!" "I did everything for her, everything!" " You still have your dad's gun?" " Why, what are you going to do?" "Where are you going, Marco?" "Stop, give it back." " What the hell are you doing?" " I'll bring it back." "I'm going to kill her!" "Or I'll kill myself!" "You kill me!" "Open your mouth, this'll calm you down." " Open your mouth." " Hold his nose shut!" "Shit, open your mouth." "This will help you." "Open your damn mouth." "Calm down, then you'll be okay." " What are you doing?" " Don't worry." " We're play-fighting." " Good evening, ma'am." "If it weren't for the support you've given me," "I'd never have gotten that role." "What's wrong?" "It's not your fault the house isn't selling, there's a recession." "Did something happen with him?" "No." "Goodnight." " She's home?" " Right, she's come home... the whore." " Paolo!" " Here she is." " They brought me home." " What's wrong?" " We need to talk." " About what?" " About you seeing someone else." " No!" "Adriano..." " Calm down." " You needed mommy?" "Easy there, talk like that to him and he'll kill you." "I've never seen him like this before." " Me neither." " All right..." "Thanks." "Wait, let me finish." "If my wife had someone else but still slept with me, I'd kill her." "I was thinking of leaving." " Leaving?" " I'll go tomorrow." " Good girl." " I don't want you to go." " She said she'll go." "It's okay." " You don't knowwhat you're saying." "Toughen up, or she'll destroy you." "Sleep in the guest room tonight, please." " Don't do anything stupid." " You're going nowhere." " Let her go." " This is my house, you can't leave." " She's a bitch, forget her!" " Understood, Veronica?" " Get out." " I can't keep my eyes open." " What did you give him?" " You sleep too then go." " Or this'll end in tears!" " Get out, this is still my house!" "Watch out, if you hurt someone, they will hurt you back." " Get out!" " Marco, stay calm." "See you tomorrow." "Marco..." "What a shitty life." "In Brazil you get 160 hectares for 300,000 euros." " Are you listening to me?" " So what?" "Things aren't going well." "Italy's at a standstill." "Why are we here?" "If Marco came too and gave us some money, we could grow coffee in Brazil." " We'd do what?" " Grow coffee in Brazil." " Are you on drugs?" " Look who's talking?" "Those pills wreck your brain." " Why are you here?" " You knowwhy." " Why?" "To die in peace?" " To die in peace, yes." "To do something good in life." "Do that by fulfilling your dreams." "You still believe that shit?" "You're so naive!" "Better naive than depressed, guilt tripping about deceiving your dead dad." " Leave my dad out of it!" " Stay away!" "Calm down." "I'm leaving anyway." "To hell with you and your guilt trips." " Good riddance!" " You're dead already!" " And I'm the crazy one?" " Fuck off!" "We're such losers." "We'll sort things out, don't worry." "Will Matteo like me?" " Will he like me?" " I don't know, leave me alone!" "Leave me alone, all of you." "Where are you going?" " I'll come with you!" " No!" "There's something I need to tell you." "There is?" "What is it?" "I slept with Carlo." " What the hell are you saying?" " We slept together." " You're nuts, I'm speechless." " I don't knowwhat happened." "Maybe it was out of despair and facing my failures every day." "For a moment it was like there was no betrayal or divorce." "It all disappeared." "For an instant I felt like I was with the man I've always loved and with whom I'd decided to have a family." "For an instant, Giulia?" "It took me years to recover from my split." "He doesn't want you, he wants the life he would've had if you two hadn't split up." " Carlo, you want to talk to Sveva?" " No, with you." " I left you two messages." " I know." "What is it?" " What happened to our lunch?" " I can't now." " Why are you so cold?" " I really can't now, sorry." "What did he want?" "Nothing." "Hi." "Come in." "He's in his room." "He's nervous." "He's very scared." "It'll be fine, don't worry." "Cookie, he's here." "Hi." "How are you?" "Want to go to the zoo to see some animals?" "How nice, do you want to go?" "Okay." "Let's go then." "Have fun." "Daddy's here!" " Why is he here?" " I don't know." "Daddy!" " How are you?" " Fine." " I need to talk to mommy." " Sveva, go up with Simone." " What do you need to talk about?" " Go, I'll call you later." "I will, really." " I'll be up in a minute." " Let's go." "Okay, you want to know how things stand?" "Whatever happened between us was a mistake which I regret." "It happened because we still love each other, despite the pain we caused each other." " You really think I still love you?" " You said so." "It was just sex." "I liked you yesterday as much as I did 15 years ago, but all I feel is resentment." " Calm down." " I am calm and I love myself." "I knowwhat's good for me and what's not." "And you're not." " You're just scared." " Yeah, right." "I am terrified of you and your sweet talk." "Please, go back to where you came from." "I'd rather have a normal, boring life." "I never want to feel insecure about my man." "I want to trust him." "I'd remember all the lies you told me each time we made love." "The anger I'd feel would just make me want to hurt you." "You'd feel the same, we'd be back at square one." "It's all over." "If that were true, we wouldn't be here." "No, you'd be at home with me and your daughter!" "Instead we're here on the pavement spitting venom at each other." "You have to pay for your mistakes." "Once, in the middle of a forest," "I saw an anaconda eat a crocodile." " A crocodile?" " A whole one." "The anaconda was huge, at least 10 meters long." "That's 3 times the length of this boat." " That's not true." " But it is." "Ask Paolo if you want, he was there." "A whole crocodile?" "It swallowed it whole." "You could see the crocodile in the anaconda's tummy." "We were speechless..." " Are there still tigers in India?" " Unfortunately not." "100 years ago there were lots, then they killed them all." "Because of Chinese medicine, to make tiger balm, I think." "That too." " Who told you that?" " Mom." "I wonder what it's thinking about..." "It looks just like us!" "What is it?" "When you left, I wasn't even one." "I was scared..." "I was scared of my responsibilities and I was very unhappy with your mom." "I'm really ashamed of what I did." "I've learned to live without you." "I know." "Can I go home?" " But we still have some time left." " I want to go now." " I said we'd be back at 6." " I want to see my mom." "Take me home!" "Hi." "I can't live without you." "You're the person I've loved the most and you're also the worst person for me." "Will you take me back?" "Come in." "Why do we feel the need to love?" "Being loved is simpler." "And you don't suffer." "you regain your self-confidence." "What else do we need?" "It's good news." "Your test results show that everything's normal, even your red blood cell count has stabilized." "It was all probably caused by excessive stress." " Just stress?" " Probably." "There's no medical explanation?" "Some people have check-ups every 6 months, everything's fine then 2 days later they have a stroke and die." "Medicine has its limits." "Life hangs from a fine thread." "That's life, we have to accept it." "I gave her everything she wanted." "What should I do now?" "Have you ever questioned yourself?" "I don't understand, sorry." "Have you ever really listened to your wife?" "I'm here with you because my wife asked me to come." "That's listening." "I did everything she asked me to." "For 6 months I've talked about my mom, my dad, and even my sister!" "Now the bitch has left me for someone else." "What should I do?" "You have the answers, and my money." "What must I do to get her back?" "If you're certain you gave her all you could, why are you so upset?" "Carlo!" " So is everything okay?" " I'm fine, it was just stress." "Don't scare us like that again!" "We've got a meeting in an hour" "Prepare a file with what we agreed." " They're all terrified." " What's new?" "See you later." "Even when everything's going well" "like something's missing?" "Does the life you didn't live cause this void?" "you can't shake off?" ""Whales aren't baptized, who are you calling Moby Dick?"" "Mom, is there no school tomorrow?" " No, it's Saturday." " Can we go to the beach?" "You want to go to the beach?" "Okay." "Will you come too, Paolo?" "Me?" " You want to come?" " Yes... if you want me to." "I do." "Okay, Paolo will come too." "We'll all go to the beach." "Breathe in." " Is everything okay?" " You can get dressed." "You suffer from varicocele." "Have you ever had a sperm motility test?" "I don't understand..." "Can you give me a sperm sample so I can test it?" "I think so." " Come on, leave him alone." " Don't worry, I don't mind." " I have a kid too." " How old is he?" " 10." " Same as him." " What's his name?" " Matteo." " What are your names?" " Diego and Anna." " You live around here?" " No, in Rome." "I came to San Galvano for a delivery." " Can we go and play?" " Yes, but we're going soon." "Don't go too far!" "It's nice here." "We didn't go to school today, we had a day out." "Their father had a house over there." "They used to play in the square, so they know everyone." "The house is no longer there but they still like to come." " Sorry, I'm chatting away." " That's fine." "I'm so cross that sometimes I just can't stop talking." "Even to strangers, I'm sorry." "It's no problem, really." "Want to knowwhy I'm so cross?" "Sure." "6 months ago I found out my husband had another life:" "He had another family, another woman, another home... 2 other children... and another cat." "When he realized I'd found out, he disappeared." "The kids haven't seen him in months and neither have I." " He had 2 families." " One in Paris, where he worked." "And one in Rome with me." "Don't ask me how he did it, it's a mystery." "Either he's a genius or I'm a fool... but I never suspected a thing." " Sorry, my name's Adele." " I'm Adriano." "I can't get up..." "Want to join me?" "But I'm still alive!" "I've decided to turn over a new leaf." "If I become cynical, stop believing in the future... and stop dreaming... he'll have won and I won't allow that." "That's right!" " That's right..." " I won't allow that." "How often do you see your son?" " Whenever he wants." " That's great!" "We thought that would be best for him." "I'm taking the kids to Villa Borghese tomorrow." "If you come with your son, they can meet." "Why not?" "Kids, get in!" "We have to go." "Want to take my number?" "Yes... of course." "Well?" "Why did you bring me here?" "Because this is where we met and because... this is... where I want to ask you if you want a child with me." " A child?" " Yes." "I'm not ready to have more children." "Do you love me?" " Do you love me, Giulia?" " I really care about you..." "Yes, I love you." "Sooner or later the time will come." "What a pretty picture!" " How did you and mom meet?" " You know." "Tell me again." "The first time we met was at university." "When we met and shook hands" "I knew she'd be your mom." " So why did you split..." " Can I take a photo of you?" "One, two..." "This way... smile." "You look so beautiful!" "Thanks." "Here." "When was it produced?" "One hour or so ago, okay?" "Yes, that's fine." "I'll have the results on Monday." " Thanks." " You're welcome." "Listen..." "I'm healthy, I've never had any problems." " Call on Monday, okay?" " Sure." "Goodbye." "Hi!" " Hi, kids." " Where's your son?" " He couldn't come." " Why not?" "He had a fever, his mom kept him home." "I'm sorry." "I wanted to see you all the same." "I'm glad." "Let me park." "Of course." "Is it true that you and my dad saw an anaconda eat a crocodile?" "Sure, did he tell you?" "Yes, but I didn't believe him." "We were near this big river, and we saw some huge splashes." "Suddenly a 20 meter serpent came out of the water." "It was fighting with a crocodile 3 times my size." " Did he eat it?" " Whole." "He swallowed it whole." " Could you see the crocodile?" " Yes, in the anaconda's tummy." "What's your real story?" "My real story?" "Why?" "I get the impression you have a secret." "Don't deny it, I sense it." "Your eyes are hiding a strange sort of sadness." "We had a great time today." "I want to come and live with you." "Is this your answer?" "I'd like you to come live with us." " So what's the problem?" " I can't trust you." "Your moods change all the time." "When you're happy, I'm in heaven but when you're down, I get down." "I have a son, I have responsibilities, I can't take risks." " You are scared." " No, I'm realistic." "Let me stay here tonight." " No." " Why not?" "First I need to see that you can look after yourself." "Otherwise howwill you take care of us?" " I'm doing all the right things." " Don't shout, he's asleep." "Why can't I live here?" "Paolo, I don't trust you." "I need you to be reliable." "If you looked after me, I'd be fine!" "I've been looking after you for the past year!" " Why don't you love me?" " You're nuts, don't shout." "You're doing exactly what I was afraid you'd do!" " Get out." " You're provoking me!" "Please, get out!" "Mom!" " Marco." " Is it a bad time?" "Sorry." "What is it?" " What's that music?" " It's Lorenzo on the piano." "His name's Lorenzo." "Listen, I've been thinking." "Why don't you come back?" "Just come back." "I'm..." "I'm dying without you." " I'm not coming back." " If you don't, I'll come there... and I'll drag you home by your hair." " Don't be a Fascist." " Where are you?" "Tell me." "I'll come there... and I'll kill you and that bastard who's playing the piano." "Tell me where you are, I'll come there." "I'll kill you, him and then myself!" "Please, go to sleep." "Goodnight." "Veronica, where are you?" "Where the fuck are you?" "Where the fuck..." " Here I am, sorry for the wait." " No problem." "Well..." "What do the results say?" " I like them, I've just never ridden." " Now's the time." "Shall I try?" " Okay." " Put your foot in the stirrup." " Hold the saddle and pull up." " Then pull up." "Wow!" " Get off my horse!" " Who the hell's he?" " Get off!" " Help!" "I'll kill you, do you understand?" " Who the hell are you?" " Leave him alone!" "You're hurting me!" " You're hurting me!" " Stop it, you're killing him!" "How old is he?" " How old is he?" "12?" " He gives me what you never did!" " Veronica, run!" " I'm talking to my wife!" " She's not your wife anymore, jerk!" " Come back, I'll forgive you." " But come back." " I'm never coming back." "I did the tests you wanted me to do." "I... have slow sperm motility." " Maybe it was my fault too." " What does that change?" "That I could've done something had I known earlier." " I could've given you more." " I can't see you like this." "I'll still wait for you." "Paolo!" "I brought you some dinner." "Did you hear me?" "You're not well again?" "Did you take your medicine?" "Yes, I took it." "Thank you." "Don't worry." "I can't go on living, mom." "I just can't." " Are they for me?" " I picked them myself." "Come in." " Yes?" " I'm sorry I overreacted last night." "Don't worry." "I'm a wreck." "You're wasting your time with me." " You stopped taking your medication?" " What do you want?" "Why did you call?" "To tell me I can live with you now?" "I can sleep over tonight?" " You've stopped your medication." " Are you ready to live with me?" "No..." "Why have we been together all this time?" "Because I love you." "I was hoping I'd help you." " So it was out of pity!" " No!" "Well that's what I think, so that's what counts!" "Actually, I think you've been seeing someone else and since I can't control my moods, you did the right thing, you whore!" "Adriano knew the score when he left." "He realized you're an egoist and that you're no good!" "Don't call me again, got that?" "Don't ever call me again!" "What the fuck did I say?" " Paolo, what happened?" " Everything's okay, mom." "They're fast asleep." "Where were we?" "You were telling me about the German guy that came into your tent by mistake." "The Kraut that thought I was his girlfriend." " You want to know about me?" " Yes, I do." "I walked out when my son was one." "I didn't see him or contact him for 10 years, until I came back, about a month ago." "Now of course, he doesn't want to see me." "I can't blame him... but I'll wait." "And I'll keep on waiting because I know things will improve." "Everything I told you about us and our relationship... was a lie." " You weren't expecting this, I know." " No, I wasn't." "I even tried to smuggle 2 kilos of cocaine out of Columbia." "I was caught at the airport and jailed for 2 years." "If you don't want to see me again," "I'll understand." "I really like you, Adele." "I didn't want to lie to you or make you think I was someone else." "Now I just want to get my life back in order, start again," "and be a better person." "Can't sleep?" "I don't feel well." "Maybe something I ate..." "Are you all right?" "Yes." "My period was late so that's why I came." " Veronica..." " Is there something wrong?" "You're pregnant." "Pregnant?" "It's a miracle, given your situation, but it's true." " I'm pregnant..." " Listen, that's the heart beat." " The heartbeat?" " Yes." "Be happy you've been blessed." "Thank you, doctor." "If you quit this month you get 822 euros severance pay." "That's nothing!" "That's all right." "Hi." "What's wrong?" "Something amazing has happened." "What is it?" "I'm pregnant." " What are you saying?" " I'm pregnant." " By who?" " By who?" "By you!" "Me?" "I heard the heartbeat." "I can't believe it." "You told me you couldn't have kids." "That's what I thought." "Listen..." "I'm not ready to have a kid." " You needn't worry." " I needn't worry?" "We've only been together for a month!" " I've wanted a kid for 7 years." " I don't give a damn!" "Don't expect anything from me, I don't want a kid." "You said I was the love of your life." "You are, I just don't want kids." "So what am I supposed to do?" "If you want me..." "I don't know." "Resolve the situation, it's not my bloody problem." "How can you say that?" "What the hell did you get me into?" " This is a nightmare." " You're right." "This is a nightmare, for me." "Not for you, for me." "I thought you were sensitive." "I am what I fucking am!" "Sorry." "I need to be alone to think." "I need to be alone." "Go." " I have to go?" " Yes, go." "Open up!" " What the hell do you want?" " Open up!" "You bastard, you can't treat me like this!" "Speak for yourself, bitch!" "You tricked me!" "You came here because your husband couldn't do it?" "You'll never see me again!" "Ever." " I don't give a shit!" " Son of a bitch!" " I don't give a shit!" " Don't touch me!" "Bitch..." "Excuse me, your wife's on line 2." "She says it's urgent." "Okay, I'll take it." "Excuse me a moment." "Yes?" "Veronica, what is it?" " Can I come home?" " Of course." " Are you okay?" " Yes, I'm okay." "Well..." "I'll finish here then come home, okay?" "Okay, bye." "Bye." " My wife." " They always want something." "Giulia?" "Open up." "What's happened?" "I need to talk to you." "What is it?" "I'm pregnant." "You're pregnant?" " Are you sure?" " Yes, I am." "You can't be." "I am." "That's amazing." "It's Carlo's." " It's whose?" " It's Carlo's." "Carlo's..." "What the hell are you saying?" " How many times did it happen?" " Once." " Where?" "On our bed?" " Please, Simone." "I want a kid and you did it with him?" "I didn't plan it, it just happened." "Sveva..." " How long have you been there?" " You're pregnant?" " Who told you that nonsense?" " You did." "I was talking about a friend of mine that's pregnant." " Does daddy know?" " No!" "Promise me you won't tell anyone, especially your dad." "Will you tell him?" "It's important for this to remain a secret between me and you." "Understood?" "Promise me." " I promise." " Okay." "Can I go and play now?" "Go on." "He's not the man I'll grow old with, but I did love him." "Breaking up with him wasn't easy." "You realize the mess we're in?" "What should I do?" "You tell me." "What happened?" "Can I stay here for a few days?" "This is still your home." "Want something to eat?" "No." "Is it okay if I sleep in the guest room?" "Of course." "Let me help you." "I can manage." "Please, tell me what happened." "He wasn't the person I thought he was, I was wrong." "You've really disappointed me." "I didn't think you could lie to me so well." "Sorry." "Who is it?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Help me." "It's my fault." "It's my fault." "It's my fault." "I couldn't do anything..." "I couldn't help him!" "I'm leaving." "I'm going to Brazil." "I've got 2,300 euros." "That'll do." "Paolo gave up, that's when he started losing." "I want to live life to the fullest." "I'm not giving up." "Once, we were studying at my house and my cousin came by." "He said to me: "She's the love of my life!" "Marco, what's so funny?"" "We were 15." "I shouldn't say this..." "I shouldn't even think it" "like it was natural and inevitable." "in his place,  or maybe all of us." "That's why we felt lucky." "We were still alive." "How did it go?" "I've got to take Sveva to school." "Was he there too?" "You told him that I know everything?" "Please." "You're hurting me." "What is it?" "I'm pregnant." "It's true, I'm pregnant." "I'm pregnant." "Mom, when will your baby be born?" "Honey, you promised." "This has to be our secret." " I want a little brother." " Sveva, stop it." "Tell me when he'll be born." "Here." "Go." " Hi." " Hi, Sveva." "This is what we've always wanted." "Why did I do such an awful thing?" "Don't..." "Don't say anything." "Who is it?" " Giulia." " Anna." " Is Carlo here?" " Yes, come in." "I'll tell him you're here." "Giulia's here." " Giulia?" " In the other room." "What happened?" "We need to talk, it's urgent." " Did something happen to Sveva?" " No, she's fine." "Come sit down." "Excuse us." "What is it?" "I'm pregnant." "Pregnant?" "It's yours." "Mine?" "I'm going to the doctor today to sort it out." "After that, I don't ever want to see you again."
