"They kingdom come..." "They will be done..." "Let me sleep a little longer." "Sweetie." "Come on, wake up." "Wake up." "You have to go to school." "Every day the same, come on, sit up!" "Sit up." "Try to wake up." " Just a little longer." " No discussion!" "Come on." "How are you?" "Open your eyes, wake up..." "You'll be late." " Moming, Mom." " Good morning." " Sleep well?" " Yes." "You?" "Me too." " I'll fill the kettle, don't worry..." " Ok." "Busy, just a moment!" "Hey there, chicky!" "You haven't laid a single egg." "Lazy!" "How about you?" "Any chicks?" "The hen we have brooding hasn't hatched a single chick." "We'll need to change the eggs." "Yes, you need to have some chicks." " Morning, Dad." "Sleep well?" " Yes." "You take forever in the bathroom." " I'll make Manuel's breakfast." " Ok." "Manuel, are you asleep again?" "Wake up, sweetie." "Wake up..." "Manuelito..." "You have to go to school, honey." "Come here." "Wake up." "How can you sleep so late?" "You have to go to school." "Always the same story." "Talk to me, so I know you're awake." " Hello." " "Hello"." " Don't you want to go to school?" " I'm sleepy." "You should go to bed earlier." "What time are they picking you up, Dad?" "They should've already come." "I'm still waiting." "You are not working today?" "Maybe I will, maybe I won't." ""Maybe I will, maybe I won't."" "You always doing the same thing!" "You better button up your shirt." "He's stealing chocolate again." "Manuel, hurry up!" "Manuel!" "Coming!" "There you go with your TV." " He was smart." " That was your father in law" "You used to tell jokes and make up stories, too." "Once in a while." "Drink your milk." "Look, Mom!" "Grandpa's been eating my chocolate again." "Just to taste..." "You know Manuel doesn't like it." "At least take the spoon out, so he won't notice." "You need to be smarter, if you don't want to get caught." "You can buy him a new jar." "A power outage." "A power outage." " Go check the fuse box" " Go, check the fuses." "Watch out for Grandpa." "It's not the fuse box." "Here." "Here." "Meat." "There's meat in it." "Where are the ripe ones?" "This milk's watered-down." " Good morning" " Good morning" " How are you, Mrs. Clemira?" " Fine and you?" " Busy working." " Always working..." "Listen, I have some bad news." "Why?" "The boss raised the price of milk." " How much?" " 250 pesos per liter." "That's too much." "I'll go to Guzman's." "Guzman's raised the price, too." "Same price..." "With this drought, the cows don't have anything to eat." "I need the same as usual, but I don't have enough money." "You can pay the difference next time." "Which ones are selling better?" ""Los Nigga..."" ""Marco Antonio Solís"" "So we need to order more of those." "We'll see what we can do." "We'll go buy more in the city." ""Los Charros de Lumaco"?" "Got it." "Take care, bye." "Thanks, Mrs. Clemira." "I was calling a friend." "We are selling some CDs, to make a little extra money." "Farm work isn't enough." "Don't hold the reigns so tight." "Don't worry, I know this horse." "There you go, Mrs. Clemira." "Bring me a CD of "Los Charros de Lumaco..."" "to make up for the water in your milk." "Still no light." "Wilson told me they were going to raise the price." "And you wouldn't believe it!" "There's no smoke without fire!" "I didn't want to believe it either." "If milk goes up, we should raise the price of cheese." " To 1,500." " At least!" " Yeah, at 1.500." " Yeah, agreed." "We won't take it lying down!" "Let's try that price for a week." "Or else, better stay home." "Drinking mate!" "No way, we'll grow old and fat." "Eating all that cheese..." "Can't say we're skinny as it is!" "I want two!" "Two?" "A dozen for you!" " How much for the cheese?" " 1,500." "That's too expensive." "Everything has gone up, cheese, too." "In Chillan, I can get them for 1,000." "Maybe they're smaller." "Not really, and they're quite good." "Well, do as you wish." " Can you show me how big they are?" " Yes." "1,500..." "That's a bit expensive." "Maybe next time..." "All right, bye-bye." " Marco Antonio Solis." " I don't like that guy." "He sings romantic songs." "I'm a romantic." "So am I, but I didn't like him." "Did you like the comedians?" "Only Kramer." "He saved the day!" "What about Chayane?" " We use cow's milk." " And how much are they?" "1,500." " Each?" " Each." "Do you do it all by yourself?" "I'll get the milk, make the cheese and come here to sell it." "Right now, I'm going to San Carlos." "They'll go bad if I take them now." "I'll buy some on my way back." "All right." "Rosi, how many did Cristi sell?" "One." "It's better than nothing!" " Made fresh, very good!" " Ok, give me one." "You won't regret it." "If I do, I'll come back to complain!" "No, you'll love it." "You'll come back for more." "Thank you." "Have a safe trip." "Hello my boys, how are my "huachitos"?" " Why aren't you wearing your smocks?" " It's too hot, mommy" "You'll get yourselves dirty!" " Bye Clemi." " Bye, bye." " See you tomorrow." " See you tomorrow." "Let's go drink something cool at home." " Good afternoon" " How much is the cheese?" " 1,500 pesos." " 1,500?" "More than the others?" "The other ladies are charging 1,000 pesos." "1,000?" "We agreed on 1,500!" "No, they're selling them for 1,000." "Look, we'd like two cheeses Could you make an effort?" "Two for 1,500." "That's not enough." "But that's the price in Chillan, 700, 800 pesos..." "At this hour you won't sell them anyway!" "We won't tell the others." " Ok, but don't tell anyone." " We'll keep the secret, don't worry." "Thank you." " Thanks very much." " Bye." " How much for the cheese?" " 1.000 pesos." " I'll take two, please." " Ok." " Thank you." " Bye." " Mrs. Clemi, I'm leaving." " Already?" " I'm too tired." " Did you sell everything?" "I have two left, but I'm taking them home." "I might eat one myself." "What's that?" "My grandson made it for me." " On the computer?" " Yes." "It's hard to read, but it's pretty." " Are you leaving, Mrs. Clemira?" " In a little while." "I'm waiting for Manuel, but if he doesn't come I will go alone" " Alone?" " Yes..." "I'm going home, too." "Because it's late and there are no more customers." " See you tomorrow." " Ok, bye." "Go check the fuse box." "Watch out for Grandpa." " It's not the fuse box" " What could it be?" " Did you pay the bill?" " Of course Mom, that's why I went to Chillan." "Dad, maybe it's the whole area." "Manuel, unplug the TV and the fridge." " Maybe someone is stealing the cables." " Yeah, people do that these days." " This power outage reminds me of a story..." " Hurry up, Manuel." "...about when my father was a worker..." "One day, he went to Lautaro for his pay..." "On his way back, he had to walk through a 500-meter-long tunnel." "And in the middle of it, the light went off, just like now." "Suddenly, he was attacked by striking miners." "Who were asking for a pay raise." "Raising their pickaxes, they shouted "Get him!"" " Mom, can I have 1,000 pesos?" " That's too much." "So the leader said: "Since you are a miner like us we will help you, brother"..." "Listen to Grandpa." "So all the miners chipped in some money for my father to take..." " 400?" " I said no!" "Grandpa, could you keep it short, please." "Thanks." "200 pesos?" "Your water." " Last but not least, right?" " Especially in this heat." "It's hard to close." "The zipper is tight." " Bye, Dad." " Bye, sweetie." " Take care of yourself." " You too." "Did your father take his sweater?" "I don't know, I don't think so." "You know he forgets everything." "Here it is." "He's such a scatterbrain, he never remembers anything." "Alejandra, how are you?" " Fine." "How are you?" " Fine, thank you." " I see it's ready." " Yes, I'm almost done." "Come have a look at my doughnuts." "Is that enough?" "Yes, I think so." "We have six visitors coming today." "Three or four North Americans." "And the others are foreigners too." "The drinks will be ready soon." "Good, but don't forget anything, What about the "cazuela"?" "I know which chicken to kill." "Perfect then, I'm off..." "Actually, I need to talk to you." "Quickly then, I'm in a hurry." "You might get angry," "I always ask you the same thing..." "I wanted to ask you for an advance." "Again?" "Live told you, I don't make enough." "Alejandra, put your thinking cap on." "I've given you an advance two months in a row." "You need to start controlling your expenses." "I have taxes to pay soon, you know." "And I don't get paid right away either." "I have to go to the agency, to pick up the checks." " Hi." " Hi, Eva." " How are you?" " Fine and you?" "Pretty good." "A little tired from the heat." "Everything's tiny." "Tiny mirror, tiny shoes." " Stop complaining." " Everything's "Mama Smurf" sized!" "Here, taste this." "I need to ask you for a favor." " Could you lend me some money?" " Money?" " 20,000 pesos." " And Mama Smurf?" "I asked, but she said no." "She always says yes." "Not this time." "I'm broke, too." "I paid some bills yesterday, and gave the rest to my mom." "The "gringos" might tip you." "Service is included!" "You're broke, I understand." "You know I'd lend it to you if I had it." "Ok then, hurry up." "And the reconnection charge?" "If I pay today, will it be restored today?" "I want to be sure it's restored today." "Ok, I'll get there as soon as possible." "Thanks." "We'll continue our visit this way, please." "What a pretty dress!" " You're going to stain it." " No, I won't." "Look who's wearing her new dress!" "You forgot the tag." " Did you wash the herbs?" " Yes." "You look great in that dress." " Thanks." " Are you going to Chillan?" "Yes." "I'd like to leave once I'm done cleaning up." "No problem." "And before you leave, don't forget to put the "cazuela" pot on the table." "I'll put it back in the fridge later." "Ok, I'll take care of it." "This house is the biggest in the farm." "We call it "The Pearl of the Farm"." "Houses like this one were built in Chile, during Colonial times." "They were built 25 km apart:" "The distance you could travel in a day by cart or on horseback." "In those days, of course, there were no roads." "Mr. Francisco, drop me off here, please." "I'm going to the mall." "Ok." " Take care." " Thanks." " Say hello to your parents." " I will, thanks." " Do you have the receipt, please?" " Here." "May I?" "One moment, I'll check with my supervisor." "I'll be right back." "Madam, are you being helped?" "Yes, I asked for a refund." "That may take a while." "May I help the next customer?" "Hello, I've come to pay my electricity." "May I see the bill, please?" "It comes to 18,750 pesos." "Will the power come back on today?" "Within 24 hours." "Do you think it's possible today?" "It doesn't depend on us, it depends on the company." "Manuel, hurry up!" "Mom, can I have the 100 pesos?" "You and your 100 pesos!" "But you said you'd give me 100 pesos." "100 pesos..." " 100 pesos." " Ok, I'll give them to you!" "Let's go, hurry up." " Did you take your juice?" " What juice?" "For school." "It's in the fridge." "I left you with some neighbors to go get the midwife." "I had to cross rivers in the middle of a storm, at night." "I finally found a house, but it was dark..." " It wasn't her house?" " No." "It was pitch black out there..." "I asked where she lived, it was further off." "I kept searching all night, in despair." " Bye Grandma." " Bye." "Bye." "Bye." "The baby's chances of survival were diminishing." "When I got home, he was dead." "I almost forgot." "Why are you back?" "To give this paper to Grandma." "Look." "That's lovely!" "Show it to Grandpa." " Where did you do it?" " At school." " It's hard to read." " "Fresh Cheese."" "You have to take it to the highway." "That's right." "You'll need a sturdy board to put it on... so it won't fly away." "Let me see, Mom." "Sorry." "Do we have Spanish or Math today?" "I can't remember what the teacher said." "I brought the Spanish textbook." "Guys, do you know where Dusan is?" "No idea." "There's three of you, I'll be fourth, ok?" " Yeah, I'll tell him." " I'm fourth." "Yeah, I'll tell him!" "Dusan, I'm fourth." "That's right, I forgot." "The others got here and made a fuss." "They were fighting over the PSP." "I didn't want to let them play, but they forced me." "But you can play after lunch." "Ok." "Be in the first five, or you'll lose your turn." "Ok." ""One day... or another..."" ""One day or another," ""we will all be happy."" ""We will all be happy."" ""I will be freed of my shadow..." ""and my name..."" ""I will be freed of my..." "What's going on?" "What's happening, kids." "Please." "Let's finish off this chapter" "So we can do something more fun." ""He who was afraid, ...will hear his mother's steps alongside."" " Let's play soccer!" " Ok." "Give me a break!" "I'm in the middle of a game." "Teams of six." "There's one player too many." "Lete, you're the worst player." "You're out!" "I'm not the worst player!" "The peasant's the worst player." "You suck, peasant!" "Go get the ball!" "Not so hard!" "Peasant, better take care of the cattle!" "Let's go to the other side, it's not as crowded." " Bye, take care." " Bye." "We have a Toyota Yaris Sport." "Dusan, the others have left." " Will you let me play?" " No." "Come on, I'm third." "No." "But you arrived after everyone else." "I was in the bathroom." "That's not my problem." "You know your car's license plate?" "Yeah." "ZJ 9569." "So, it's new?" "No, it's two years old." "Last summer, I went to Viña del Mar." "Viña is nice." "There's the beach, the sun..." "I was there with my mom, and my mom's boyfriend." "We went to the movies with a friend of his." "And we met these guys who dared us to race them." "So we did." "It was awesome." " Bye." " Bye." "Dusan, lend it to me?" " Lend it to me." " No." " I'm the only one left." " You were the sixth to arrive." "But the others have left!" " Makes no difference." " How come?" "Come on..." "I'm playing." "What does it matter to you?" "Let me play." "You can play at home." "I have to recharge it and have lunch." " You can play anytime you like!" " I want to play now." "You'll play later, if you're in the first five." "I was fourth this morning." "Lete told you so." "It's my PSP, not Lete's." " You're a real pal..." " Thank you" "See now, peasant." "Three." "Four." "Now, I would like you to write a speech." "At the end of class, someone from each group will read it." "Yes?" "Do we get a group grade?" "There is a provisional qualification for the whole group, so start working." "You, why are you throwing stones?" "You can not do that, stop!" "Go and play with something else!" "What tool are you using?" "No, you're not looking in the right place." "Open the window ...there it is a tool called History... yeah..." "and there you can undo the mistake." "Hold on." "What's wrong, Hernandez?" "Sir, Dusan and Letelier are playing with a PSP." "Yes." "And?" "Videogames are forbidden at school." "Yes, but that's my problem." "Go back to class, I'll deal with it later." " Ok." " Go back to class." "I was saying that you need to backtrack, until you find your mistake." " The teacher, careful!" " Silence, please, seated." "Quiet." "No running!" "Be seated." "No running!" "It is 3:50." "In 30 minutes, we'll start reading the speeches." "Each group will read its speech." "Choose a person to read it." "Letelier, Fernandez and Gasic, I saw you playing with that videogame" " Put it away right now!" " Yeah mister, just a second." " I said right now!" " Yeah mister, one more goal" "I said now!" "Put it in a bag." "Yeah, yeah." "If you don't put it away I will take it!" "Put it away." "Gasic, put it away." "And since you seem to know so much about the subject, you will be the first group to read your speech." "And for you it will count in your final grade." " What?" " It will count in your final grade." "Quiet, and get to work." "If you have a doubt, ask me." "Excuse me." "Manuel, it's so late!" " Are you tired?" " Yeah." "Why aren't you wearing your smock?" "It's in my backpack." "You have to wear it, otherwise you'll ruin your uniform." " Mrs. María Inés sent me to Chillan." " I was about to ask." " Next time, we could meet up." " And how?" "You let me know in advance." " So I can pick you up." " Ok." "Are you tired?" "Look what I have for you here." " What is it?" " This little candy." "I don't want it now." "Save it for later." " Ok." " Thanks." "I got out late because..." "I'm doing a workshop, we're painting a mural." "Oh, that's why." " Sit on my lap." " No." "You'll be more comfortable." " You can rest a little." " No." "Sit down a little." " Can I?" " Yes." "Just one leg..." "Are you comfortable?" "Get some rest." "You can sleep." "Move a little." "That's comfier." "You can sleep, if you want." "Cornelio!" " Your sweater..." " I forgot it." " Don't be in such a rush!" " Thanks." "I didn't do my military service, it wasn't mandatory." "My father died and I was alone taking care of my mother and ten brothers." "Being the eldest, I had to look after the house." "I would have liked to do it, but I couldn't." "I have a son in the army." "He's a professional soldier." "After serving in Coyhaique, they sent him to Arica, then to Santiago, and now he's in Linares waiting for a promotion." " Good luck." " You too." "You're too used to being pushed." "I'm sick of it." " Come on, Don Cornelio." " With this we are dropping dead." "He got used to it." "He just loves being pushed." " Ok, see now." " See now." " Bye Don Cornelio." " Bye bye mister." "Let's have some water." "Don't lean against the switch, you're turning off the sign outside." "As I was telling you, our daughter has a kid." "But it's not a problem." "I'd like to help her out." "Don Cornelio, those things happen." "Her brothers are in Santiago." "I'm putting the papers in order, so I can leave her with something." "Don Segundo." "You again!" "Please stop doing that!" "This is the third time I have to move you." "Our customers can't see the neon sign, dammit!" " What's the matter?" "!" "Who do you think you are!" "?" "Relax." " Nobody bangs on my table!" " Relax, will you?" "Easy." "I'm talking with him." "Did you see how he banged on my table?" "You..." "So you can help them to plant and harvest." "I will help your grandson." "He is studying in Chillan?" "Grandpa!" "Grandpa!" "Hello." "Come on." "We're waiting outside." " Hello." " Nice to meet you, boy." "Now we have to go, but we will talk later." "We're waiting for you." " Don't forget you bag." " Oh, right." "Bye my friends, I'll see you soon, God Willing." "You never change." "The other day you forgot your cap and now you almost left your bag." "I might've forgotten my bag, but not my friends." "Your grandpa always comes here." "I come here every day." "To have some fun." "You almost forgot me, I waited for hours..." "If we hadn't shown up, would you have drunk till morning?" "Maybe not till morning, but a little longer, yes." " Hi, Dad." " How's my girl?" "Fine." " What are you doing here?" " Mrs. María Ines sent me to Chillan." "She was in the same bus as Manuel." " How about the drinks?" " I have a few, so I'm a little tipsy now..." "Let me tell you a story of my youth, a story you don't know..." "Looking for work we left with some friends to the mountains." "And leaving Chillan to the east, between Pinto and Recinto, we found this big farm." "There was a sawmill, some wheat fields..." " Back when you traveled the country?" " Yes, I had to make a living." "So we asked who we should talk to, and we were told to go see a guy named..." "Gutierrez." "He was the overseer..." " Mom, Grandpa's told this story before." " You know how he is, eat!" "...and he sent us to harvest the wheat" " Can I play with your cell phone?" " The battery's dead with the power outage." "He would reply: "Good work you did today, the boss will be happy"" "We'd say, "Howdy, Gutierrez!"" "But he used to hit the bottle a little too much." "And his health started failing." "So much it was so, that he couldn't even lift his head when we called his name." "He'd sit there all day, in his chair." "And one fine day..." " You are not eating, Ale?" " No, mom." "Until one good day, Gutierrez died, and we had to organize the funeral." "He had this dog, that was so attached to him... that when we said "Gutierrez"" "the dog would wag its tail." "But later, the dog too lost it's spunk." "It became sad." "So we called the dog "Gutierrez", too." "The dog was sick with sadness." "He hide behind some logs..." "And even when we yelled "Gutierrez!" It laid still, like its master had." " It wouldn't get up." " No." "So we ended up burying it too, just like Gutierrez." "What do you think?" "Too bad both of them died." "But it's a good story, nonetheless." "There's one more thing I want to say..." "Maybe because I'm tipsy..." "I'm not as good a worker as I used to be." "I'm fencing the pasture, as you know, a work that used to take me a couple of days..." "But I've been at it for two weeks, and I can't see the end of it." "We'll see if I even finish." " It's your age, Dad." " Yeah, I suppose..." "Sometimes I think about all the things I've done in my life... and of how it all fades away, slowly, day after day." "And then I start reflecting, my mind turning for answers:"Why do I have so little left?"" " Time takes its toll." " Yes." "Why work so much, anyways?" "You know your brothers will haggle over the land?" "I agree, Dad." " The light, finally!" " Great!" "You know you're not the only heir, so why work so hard?" "You must like it." " Mom, can I take your plate?" " Yes, thanks." "You haven't eaten, Dad." "All you do is talk." "Manuel, plug the fridge in." "The wine warms me up." "Keep the leftovers for tomorrow." "The wine warms you up..." " Eat your corn, Manuel." " What?" "Your corn." "You haven't eaten a thing." "Keep the leftovers for tomorrow." "Subtitles:" "Jirafa."
