"You know the drill, lots of fun and cartoons..." " Maria." " Joao, good morning." " You smell good." " Get away, boy." " How are you?" " I'm all right." " This is Sofia." " Hello, Sofia." "All right?" " Do you have any coffee?" " Sure, fresh." "Need it" "Great." "You know Sofia used to live right here on the street?" "Oh, yeah?" "She's probably part of the family." "Careful there, you could be brother and sister." "We're not brother and sister, Maria." "I've only lived here six months." "Only six months, why?" "At the time, my mother died and was sent to live with my uncle." "But he doesn't live here any more." "You are too young to be an orphan, Sofia."

"Is it a white Uno?" "Fuck." "The window was left intact." "Yeah, a very nice thief." "Take a look inside." " Yeah, they took the CD player." " That's all?" "Six books, they took none of them." "It doesn't have an alarm?" "Yes, but it doesn't work." "Will see you again after this?" "Maybe." "Do you want me to go with you to the garage?" "No, just help me with the window." "Have to go." "Okay." "You have my number?" " Yes." "Do you have mine?" " Yep." "Hey, Adailton!" "Hey." "All right?" "Good morning." "Hi, Pacote." "Hey, brother!" "Can you turn that down?" "Hey, brother!" "Do you know anything about the car there?" "Who might have done it?" "Know nothing." " Haven't heard." " Nothing, zilch?" "You heard nothing." "Adailton, wasn't it you who called Maria?" "Called 'cause saw the car with the window messed up, all fucked up." "Somebody had to call." "How did you know it was somebody staying with me?" "Everaldo, the night guy, he came and said, you know, this and that." "Then he, sort of, went..." "You're a brother, we saw the connection and thought you should know, that's all." "But we know nothing of what goes on, on this street." "Nothing, nothing, nothing." " Was it Dinho?" "It looks like his handiwork." " Who?" "Said it looks like Dinho's handiwork." "You are saying that." "Don't put no words in our mouths." "We are here to work, and not stick noses into people's business." "And ain't no rat." "Good morning, Romualdo."

"You think Dinho might have anything to do with it?" "Yeah, well..." " I'll have a word with him to find out." " The stereo was taken?" "Yeah, CD player." "Same old story." "Just keep me out of all matters concerning Dinho." " Know." "You have the keys?" " Yeah." "All right." "The building has 24-hour video surveillance." "The perimeter fence is equipped with sensors."

"I'm not sure what happened, but it seems she threw herself, yes." "Oh, God." "That's a bad omen." "It might sound strange, but when heard about this, almost called to cancel this visit." "Something negative about living in the building struck me." "Would you consider a special arrangement considering the circumstances?" "Don't really see your point." "Yeah, well." "It might sound strange, but felt this... negative energy." "Look, the incident has no effect on the quality of this place." "This place is not haunted." "You wouldn't put a word in..." "All right then." "Flower wreaths downstairs." "I'm not interested, okay?" "Let's go." "What are you looking for?" "Oh, nothing." "What are you doing?" "Just spying on something." "What's going on?" "Have you drugged the dog?" "Unbelievable." "He's going to be fine." "He's breathing." "102, Mrs. Beatriz Linhares." "Coming!" " Good morning." " Morning, Mrs. Beatriz Linhares." "It's me, 102." "That way." "Good morning. live up the street and we bought one of these." " Are you delivering it?" " What is your name?" "It should be in my husband's name, Adalberto Gois." "Can you finish with me and take care of her problem later?" "Right here." "Adalberto Gois will be next." "That's great." "It's a 32-inch, a smaller one, right?" "So, we'll be there in no time." "Get off me, Betania!" "What happened to your hair?" " Crazy Betania attacked me again." " Again?" "Over here, please." " Upstanding, please." " Upstanding how?" "Vertically." " It's the right way up." " No, vertical, like this." "Like this." " Just turn it, turn it." " Turn it, man." "Glass of water, Mum." "What are you staring at, Fernanda?" " Where do sign?" " Right here." " Are you okay?" "Drink your water." " You want some water?" " No, thanks." " No, thanks." "Drink your glass of water to calm you down." "Hold this, dear." "It's all right, the crazy woman is my sister." "Apologize for the..." "Nelson, will you go with them?" " Good-bye." " Good-bye." "See." "See." "So you have this problem." "Need a hand, lady?" " No, I'm already paying your friend." " I'm not asking for money..." "Wow." "It's easy, I'm telling you." "It's easy, come on, open my laptop, first file..." "The tab's open, right?" "Oh, dear." "Just go over to my desk and open the file." "The first one." "It's like new, miss." "Of course I'm pissed off, Ricardo." "One more reason for you to come in early." "It's a huge box." "Yeah, I'll try." "Kisses." "Bye." "Mum, do you really have to smoke in here?" "Oh please, Fernanda..." "Your class starts at 11:00, in an hour." "Go take a shower." " Met this girl last night." " Oh yeah?" "Sofia, the one told you about earlier with the stolen CD player." "What is she like?" "Really liked her, she's cool." "Came over with friends," " and she ended up staying." " She stayed?" " A girlfriend, then." " Friend, last night, you know, a friend." "What about this thing you mentioned back there, let's hear it." "Remember had to show this couple the Vivaldi 301 last Monday?" " On Monday, remember." " You remember." " So went." " And what happened?" "What happened?" "Man, the guy's wife was this girl knew way back in 1981." "Man, listen, sex with this girl was spectacular." "We got along great, but sexually..." "We fucked so much, any way we could, any time we could." " Oh yeah?" " It was great." "This girl took a big chunk out of my love life." "Get it?" "See a smile." "She called me yesterday, right here." "On Monday, you behaved like strangers?" "As if you didn't know each other?" "Didn't say hello, nothing like that?" " Go on with the story." " To make a long story short, she told me she's happy, her marriage was a bit shaky..." "Has two kids..." "And everything's tip-top, so she said." "What is it?" "Right, but that's it?" "That's it?" "Didn't you find it..." "Come on..." "Yeah, well, it's a good story." " Isn't it?" " It's good." " Good morning." " Good morning." " Seu Anco?" " Yes." " My name is Clodoaldo Pereira dos Anjos." " Good to meet you." " What's your name?" " Joao." "There you are, Seu Joao, pleased to meet you." "These men over there work with me." "We're calling on every house on the street and I'll tell you why." "To offer you a private security service for the street, okay?" "We are trained in security firms, here is our leaflet." "How do we work?" "We work with prevention." "To guarantee your peace of mind." "How do we do it?" "We work from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. That's 12 hours of exclusive security, covering the entire street." "But who sent you here?" "We came ourselves." "We observed the street lacked security, and this is exactly what we have to offer." " Clodoaldo, right?" " That's correct." "Clodoaldo, take a good look at my house." "My house is the only one on the street, maybe in the whole block, without any fancy security gear." "Can you see that, Clodoaldo?" "Had noticed that, yes." "Mr. Anco, think you have some cool house." "Wouldn't it be great if the whole street was like this?" "But violence doesn't let you." "Please allow me, but saw you have a video camera right there." "Clodoaldo, that's a small detail." "We have to do something." "What we propose is a R$20 collaboration fee, a kind of partnership." " See..." " agree with you..." "What if someone chooses not to pay the tax or collaborate?" "No problem." " I'm suddenly less safe?" " Absolutely no problem..." " It's not a question of money." " No problem, Mr. Joao." "Understand perfectly." "My father used to say we all have the right to choose what to believe in." "Do you carry weapons, Clodoaldo?" "To be honest, can't really say yes, and can't really say no." "But I'll show you our best weapon, which is this, a cell phone." "Me and the boys have all the contacts we need." "So, worst-case scenario, you throw the mobile at the bad guy, is that it?" " Mr. Joao, please..." " Then you run home and get the real thing." " I'm just trying to work out..." " get it, get it." "Offer a service, you accept it if you so wish." "My job here is to present it to you." "Obviously, you're important people here on the street." "Just so you know, everybody's in all the way to the clinic, except you." "Have you talked to Seu Francisco?" "Francisco, your father?" "You already know he's my father?" "An important man like him?" "Of course, a popular man on the street." "I'll have a word with him to set things straight." "Grandpa will like that." "You have our leaflet, and I'll also leave you my card." "If you need anything, coming home late one night..." "If you get a bad feeling about anything, just call, we'll be there." "No strings attached, though it's only R$20 a month." "If not, fine." " All right?" "Thank you for your time." " All right." " Good-bye." " Good-bye." "What a pitch." "Let's get some coffee." "Hey, Joao." "Dinho." "What a great visit." " How are you?" " All right." "What's up, man?" "You miss Germany?" "Man, miss it, actually..." "Seven years is quite a long time." "It is." "How's uncle and aunt, Mirela?" "Everybody's fine." "Mirela's dating these loser types." "What can do?" "Her taste in men is fucked up." "Have you seen granddad?" "Saw him last week." "The old man is going strong." "Always complaining that we never go to the sugar mill." "Man, haven't been to the sugar mill in quite a while." "Was there earlier this year." "Met this girl yesterday." "Sofia." "It was great." "Can see your eyes shining." "And so it goes that her car was burgled, just across the street." "The CD player was taken." "I'd like to check if you happen to know..." "Who might have done it." "No." "You have no idea?" "You come to my house to ask me if fucked around with some girl's car." "Your girl's car." "Who got fucked around last night?" "The car or her?" "Brother, you come to my house." "Don't you fucking brother me, Dinho." "Sit the fuck down." "Listen, you've fucked up here on the street before, right?" "Just for kicks, didn't you?" "Listen to me, Dinho." "You are my cousin. like you." "Sofia is a friend. like her too." "So do me a favor, go back in, get that fucking CD player, bring it here and say you're sorry." "Don't do that kind of thing any more, idiot." "Just tell me you didn't do it." " You're so fucking unfair." " Tell me you didn't do it." "Just tell me, tell me... ain't these glue sniffers down the street." "Just tell me..." "It's tough to believe..." "We're cousins, man, you show up after so long to accuse me of stealing car stereos." "Cousin, long time no see, but just tell me you didn't do it." "See ya, I'm leaving." "Cleide, open the door for Joao." "Seu Joao..." "Cleide asked you to wait, she's coming down." " Thanks." " All right." "Dinho asked me to give you this." " Hey, Maria." " Sidiclei, wake up." " Hi, Sidiclei, how are you?" " How are you?" " Sleepy?" " am." "You know what my grandpa used to do when was too sleepy?" "Feel better now?" "It smarts, doesn't it?" "Joao, he came tired from work, and let him rest for a bit." "Came back for this bill. am late." "Have you seen it?" "Took it to your bedroom." "You come here." "Joao, are you having lunch here?" "Don't have time, but leave some soup for dinner." "I'll leave it on the stove." "Okay, thanks." "I'm leaving." " So, you found a job?" " Yeah." " Where?" " Cashier, supermarket, night shift, quiet..." " What shift?" " From 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m." " 6:00 a.m.?" "That's tough." " Yes, it is." "In the after-hours..." "When was abroad, worked in a bar till 7:00 or 8:00 a.m." "was useless during the day." "There you are." "See, Maria?" "The kid works hard." "You complain he doesn't go to church." "He works hard." "Coming!" " Hi, Romualdo, just put it up there." " Excuse me." " You want me to set it up?" " It's fine, there's still some left." " So, did you bring the stuff?" " Yeah." "I'm running out, I'll need more later in the week." "Just call and order water." "Of course." "I'll get the money, please wait." "R$70 for the pot, R$4 for the water." " The canister." " Right there." "Thanks, cheers." "Ana Loecia!" "SECURITY" "Good afternoon." "We came to see Seu Francisco." "Come in." "Please wait here." "I'll tell him you arrived." "He's on his way." " Good afternoon." " How are you, sir?" "Barging into my street without even saying hello..." "That's why am here." "I'm all ears." "I'm here to ask for your blessing on the job we'll be starting soon." "Don't take leaflets." "Should tell you something, though, to make myself clear." "Own over half of all the property in this area." "When heard about you, sir, said, "We have to go and see him."" "Who told you about me?" "Oh, Seu Anco, Dr. Fernanda, just about everyone." "Listen now, don't really..." "Call the shots around here any more." "My business now is back in my land, where the sugar mill is, in Bonito." "Just live here." " But I'll tell you something else." " All right." "Have a grandson, who lives down the street." "Dinho." "He's been giving some heartache to his father, who happens to be my son." "Don't want to hear about you having any business with Dinho." "Dinho is out of your jurisdiction." "Understood?" "You can rest assured, message understood." "And this one, does he speak?" "He does." "Say something, man." "Can talk, sir." "What's with the blind eye?" "Is that fit for a watchman?" "Probably see a lot better than you, sir." "Lampiao also had only one eye." "Probably saw better than can and was shot down all the same." "But before that, he took so many with him." "Like him." " What is your name, boy?" " Fernando." " Fernando what?" " Gomes do Nascimento." " And you, sir?" " Clodoaldo Pereira dos Santos." "Where are you from?" "I'm from Limoeiro, Fernando is from around here." " From where?" " Guabiraba." "Guabiraba?" "Off you go, dismissed." "Hope you do a good job." "Luciene, open the door for the men." "Open the door for the boys." "Why did you talk like that to the old man?" "What a fuck up..." "If he didn't come on board, the job was dead." "Are you stupid, or what?" "Bless you, Grandpa." "I'm fine." "Finishing off some business with clients." "Yes, closed the deal." "They're renting." "Windsor Castle." "Yes, know about them." "They came to talk to me and Anco." "Did they have a word with you?" "They went for some grandpa hand-kissing, huh?" "The guy seems to know what he's doing." "think." "They start tonight." "Grandpa, I'm worried about Dinho." "He's at it again." "Grandpa, did you hear what just said?" "Know. know." "Really want to go back there." "One of these days." "Okay?" "Part 2 Night Guards" "saw their leader, boy does he talk like an ex-cop." "Sugar?" "It's ridiculous, but, who knows, it might be a good thing." "It can't get any worse, can it?" "We might reclaim our right to actually own a CD player in the car." "At least that." "Two cars broken into last night." "Yeah, heard." "Don't you find it suspicious that on the day they begin..." "A marketing kind of thing..." "They make you sicker to give you the new drug." "That would be ingenious." "Very suspicious." "You pay for school and you pay for English lessons after school, but school already teaches us English." "Just listen to the girl's thought." "I'm sorry?" "It's "thank you" in Mandarin." "Only a big head like Fernanda would say a thing like that." "You're the big head trying to raise your IQ with those glasses." "Ouch." "Now that you mentioned glasses, let's see an optician for you, all right?" "Don't need glasses." "Want some more, Fernanda?" "Come over here, you two." "Let me show you something." "The video of that watchman hit last month in..." "Casey Amarela." " Surveillance camera?" " Yeah, building across the street." "See?" "They drive by and he doesn't even..." "They probably did that to check out the situation." "Thought he had a gun, who knows." "They come back now." "Shot right in the head." "It's fucked up." "This ain't Sao Paulo or Belo Horizonte." "This is right here, man." "Our turf" "Play it again." "Watch it." "For slow motion, press here." "So, we've reached a unanimous decision on the street security men." "So let's move on to the next issue which is Seu Agenor." "Seu Agenor has worked for us for quite some time." "He wouldn't be here for so long if he wasn't doing a good job, but lately he's been showing signs of fatigue." "He's a man of a certain age, and some have complained he's been sleeping on his watch." "So think we should discuss this matter." "What shall we do?" "Do we let him go?" "What shall we do?" "Agree, think he's asking for it." "Don't think it's fatigue, he's doing it on purpose to get fired." "And have been getting my Veja magazine without the plastic seal." "Won't even go into his lack of manners at the reception desk." "He never says hello, with that mean-looking face." "Think he's doing it on purpose." "Don't think he treats everyone that way." "Yes, agree." "Agree." "Why don't we change his shift hours?" "The day shift guys don't want to change." "Not to mention the extra pay for the night shift which makes him happy." "He's getting paid to sleep, not bad, is it?" " Isn't he nearing retirement?" " In two or three years." "Can we just let him go?" "Have you talked to him?" "We have records of formal complaints filed by the building administrator, and we also have..." "brought my son Diego today for a reason." " Diego, say hello to everyone." " Good evening." "Diego brought some footage he recorded on a DVD." "Let me show you." "Diego shot these images want you to see with a camera phone." "And also with a video camera." "And with a video camera, anyway..." "Where is it?" "Is it on?" "Are you sure you have it, son?" "Here it is." " You'll see our dear Agenor." " There's even a title sequence." "Can you lower the screen?" " Shocking images of negligence." " He's so rude." " He has a very relaxed approach." " He doesn't even hide it." " The stain on the couch." " That explains the stain." " Why don't you clean it?" " Because it's not my job, it's his job." "Right, let's keep focused." "I'd like to say something." "With all due respect to Diego and Carlos and his video," "Seu Agenor is probably, know this for a fact, the worst doorman in Recife's metropolitan area." "He can't really work any more." "But firing him for negligence after all the work he's done for us, and the good work done, it's just mean." "We should fire him with his rights, severance pay..." "Joao, it's mean only if you look from a certain angle." "See a lot of this in the company where work." "The employee's tired, gets lazy, sloppy, sets up a scheme to be fired, to get his big severance package." "Don't think we should play that game, we live in a building." "This is no charity organization." "Objectively speaking..." "Let's focus, I'm tired, want to go up, take a shower, eat and sleep." "Let's look at figures, if we were to let him go." "Taxes, severance pay, social security amounts to R$14,456." "Way too much." "That's thirteen years of service." "And that works out to..." " To..." " For each tenant..." "For each tenant, R$316.55." "Extra charge." "If you can't afford a car, take the bus." "We must understand we live in a community, and there are costs." "People here complain about costs but can afford getting smashed in parties, and buying burning incense from Amsterdam." "The worst part is the comic nature of this meeting." "We have tourist tenants, part-time tenants..." "The highly opinionated ones who remain largely absent, which is his case." " And we discuss endlessly." " There's no need to use that tone." "I'm sorry for my brief absence, and I'll have to leave right now." "Had a previous appointment." "I'd just like to say that think it's so fucking wrong to fire Seu Agenor by using these video images." "I've already said why, his work in the building..." "Sorry about the language, aunt." "I'd just like to know who votes against firing him without..." "He couldn't give a fuck for..." "The ballot is not even open yet." " I'm sorry, gotta go, good night." " What do you mean?" "Of course, his vote won't count, the ballot was closed, it's just a point of view." " Sofia." "Hi." " Hello." "You just saved me from a weird condo meeting." "And felt like seeing you." "So came." "Good." "Want to go upstairs?" "I've got something for you." "You won't believe it." "A surprise." "You found my CD player?" "Joao, this is not mine." "Where did you get this?" " It's not yours?" " No." "My cousin Dinho is our resident car burglar." "Went to talk to him to find out if he knew anything." "Your cousin steals from cars?" "Wasted the whole day with this, missed work." "What a fucking thief." "What's wrong with him?" "It's fucked up." "Dinho is kind of lost, you won't understand, but he's actually a good kid." "But he fucks up a lot and the family just..." "Do you think it works?" "We can try." "It's better than mine." "Some family..." "Big family..." "It's madness." "Two orphans, you and me." "We had this orphan vibe last night, didn't we?" "We did." "Cancer orphans." "Talked to my uncle about your uncle." " He remembers him?" " He does." "You can visit the house you lived in, if you want." "Wow, do." "It's been 20 years." "Could draw you the whole house." "The house belongs to my family." "Developers want to buy it, to tear it down." " Another tower block." " Another tower block." "Do you like your job?" "Hate it." "This whole area used to belong to my grandfather." " That means you're rich." " am." "Want to marry me?" "Clodoaldo, isn't that Seu Francisco?" "Just leave him." "DANGER SHARK ZONE" "Clodoaldo, the old man's back." " Dinho, it's for you." " Who is it?" "Tell this idiot not to call at this hour." "Fuck, Mirela." "What if was naked in here?" "Big fucking deal, I've seen you jerking off already." "You little fucking thief." "The street now has security, you bastard." "Try to burgle a car now," "I'll kill you, scumbag." "Clodoaldo, where did you meet this guy?" " That little kid?" " Yeah." "Ask him." "Hey, Ronaldo." "Come over here." "Ask him." "How did you meet?" "Playing football in Gravata." " What position did you play, Clodoaldo?" " Defense." "Defense?" " Never let anyone through." " have to see that." "The ball might have gone through, but the poor guy's ankle didn't." " Why don't you tell him?" " Tell him what?" "Why don't you tell him how we really met?" "Change the tape, man." "Let's talk about something else." "Why don't you want to talk about it?" "What are you afraid of, man?" " I'm not afraid." " Say it, then." "Go on, Ronaldo." "Man..." "This guy, here, saw my sister die." "When got there, he helped me." "It was bad." "HOW did she die?" "Ran over." "On the interstate, in Gravata." "She was run over so many times, she vanished from the asphalt." "A large stain was all that was left." "Was it a truck?" "Trucks, cars, motorcycles, vans..." "It was a holiday, the road was fucking busy." "Have this old picture of her." " You have that picture?" " Yeah, have you seen it?" "Yeah." "Fernando, got curious..." "That eye of yours, how did you lose it?" "Oh, that was some mean business." "Tell your story." "Hit a shelf at home." "Nine surgeries." "Each meaner than the next." "Transplant, implant..." "did everything they could." "It was no use." "Ended up losing my eye." "That's too bad." " Good evening." " Good evening." "Did you see anybody using that phone there?" "Man, some guy made a call, what, five, ten minutes..." "Listen up." "Did you guys call me?" "No sir, no one here knows you, who are you?" "You don't know me, but you should." "Look, this street right here, belongs to my family." "Yeah, big people, with money." "This is no favela, man." "And this is no favela pay phone either, for poor people." "This pay phone is not located in a favela, and it's not the "take-leave message" type." "You shouldn't talk to us like that, Doctor." "I'm no doctor, man, nor patient." "If find out that you called me," "you're all fucked." "Good night." "Part 3 Bodyguards" "Boiling hot." "So, when are you two getting married?" "Grandpa..." "Come on, take it easy." "Take it easy?" "I'm thrilled with the idea, and hope he is, too." "How about you, Sofia?" "What?" " Marriage." " don't know." "Grandpa..." "Grandpa..." "Grandpa wants..." "Marriage." "Huh, Sofia?" "Come on..." "Say yes." " Would you marry me?" " Marry you?" " No, him." "I'm only the registry officer." " Come on, Grandpa." " Would you marry him?" " Careful with him." "Don't know yet. don't know." "What are you waiting for?" "Life." "SCHOOL SENATOR JOAO CARPINTEIRO" "One ticket, please." "CINEMA" "Bull, bull, bull Black-faced bull" "Take this little girl Who's scared of grimaces" " I'm sorry..." " Good morning." "Good morning."
