""Attention, ladies and gentlemen, ...this train stops here due to an accident."" ""We're half way into the station, ...the doors will now be opened to let you out," "...please do as you're told."" "Ladies and gentlemen, let's go, through the carriages, on to the platform." "What's happened?" "A man threw himself under the train." "Leave the platform as fast as you can." "Don't look at the track, he's been cut in half." "Right, let's go!" "Move!" "Out you go, one line, please." "Keep going, eyes off the track." "There's nothing to see, keep moving." "A man threw himself on the track..." "No looking, please!" "Don't touch anything!" "Move on, there's nothing to see." "Keep moving, don't be so morbid." "Keep going, go on!" "Move along!" "SCHOOL OF MASS COMMUNICATION" "November, 1995." "It's just an outline." "Well, I like your approach, it's a very sensitive subject." "Just what the ghouls will lap up, but you're treating it objectively." "Thanks." "See in you class." "Just one more thing..." "On section No. 7..." ""Audiovisual Violence"" "I need more material." "What kind?" "Footage never shown on television because of its violent nature." "You have access to the library, ...could you get me interesting material?" "You find this stuff interesting?" "Not personally, only for my project." " Violent footage..." " As violent as possible." "It would a bit awkward asking for films of such nature." "They'd think I'm a freak." "I can't promise anything." " Come back tomorrow." " Thanks." "Right, see you next week, ...keep going to the cinema." "Are you Chema?" "I'm Angela." "Cool!" "Listen, I hear you like violent films and have quite a collection." "Of what?" "You know, gore, porn..." "It's false and you can't have them anyway." "Go to a sex shop if you want a turn-on." "It's for my thesis:" "Audiovisual Violence." "So do it on "Mickey Mouse"." "So you want to see the tapes?" "So you do have them?" "Yes or no?" "Most media students think they know everything about film-making, but know jack about "real cinema"." "What is "real cinema"?" "What I've got in here." "Most people say my films are crap, but are dying to see them." "It's for my thesis..." "I'm not interested in your " "Come on in." "Do you want some?" "No, thanks." "Right to the point, then - very well." "Don't say I didn't warn you." "Do you live with thieves?" "I live alone." " No parents?" " They don't live in Madrid." "This was my grandmother's." "She died last year." "Don't touch anything." "No one's allowed here." "You're lucky." "Why me?" "You're gorgeous." " Thanks." " You were born that way." "Sit down, I don't charge for it." "What do you want to see?" "What have you got?" "All types of porn." "Soft, hard, violent, Eastern, you name it - all hot stuff." "I'm not interested in this kind of porn, if that's all you have to offer..." "You want action, then?" "Very well..." "I need the really violent stuff." "Really violent?" "How nice." "You'll get off on this then." "What is it?" ""Fresh Blood" - a very beautiful and educational film." "What are they doing?" "What do you think?" "Removing his brain." "God..." "That's what you wanted, so don't get squeamish." "It's all real:" "executions, beatings, lynchings..." "great stuff." " Hello..." " Hello, Mr. Figueroa." "I need a favor." "I'm looking for a Czech film but I don't remember the title." "Can I check the tapes?" " You mean, in the storeroom?" " I know it's unusual, but..." "Come with me..." "You know, it's odd..." "no one ever asks to go in... but, you're the second one today." "Is that so?" "He came in a moment ago..." "Professor?" "He can't hear me." "Right, it's arranged by genres." "I'll leave you to it." "Shouldn't we wait for him to finish?" "No, I don't think you'll bother him." " Unless it bothers you..." " No, of course not." "It's so large, you won't bump into him." "See you." ""Pornography etc., Shelf 5H"" "It's horrible!" "Do people really watch such films?" "You do, for one." "That's different, I don't enjoy them." "It's loathsome." "Ever seen anyone killed?" "What do you think?" "Not TV killing, real life killing." "This is real." "What more do you want?" "You don't get me." "I've never seen anyone killed." "Mr. Figueroa, we have to close now." "Well, that's it." " Hi, bookworm." " Have you seen Figueroa?" "So you go for older men, do you?" "Did you find him?" "He didn't come to class, nor did you." "Where were you?" "Never mind..." "I'm off." "Can a film kill someone?" "A heart attack or something like that caused by what they see." "Not again!" "Wasn't yesterday enough?" "You're a real sadist, aren't you?" "If so, would you fuck a freak like me." "I've got money." "We're off..." " Sena?" " Coming!" "Sure you won't come?" "No, I must work on my thesis." "Then you'll want to borrow my clothes!" "Don't work too hard..." " Mum?" " What?" " What's on this tape?" " What tape?" "In the VCR." "Did you watch it last night?" "See what it is." " It's mine." " Can't I watch it?" " It's for my thesis... it'll bore you!" " How do you know?" "I bet it's not just a reportage." "Silence!" "Please quiet down." "Hello everyone." "I suppose you've all heard the sad news." "Mr. Figueroa died on Tuesday." "He was found in the screening room." "Apparently he had an asthma attack while watching a film." "I bet it was a Spanish film." "You saw the film?" "Did you take it?" "My name is Castro." "Jorge Castro." "I'm a professor of Audiovisual Psychology, as some of you know." "I'll be substituting Mr. Figueroa for the time being." "I know the program quite well so we should be able to carry on as normal." "Which reminds me..." "Angela Marquez?" "I believe Mr. Figueroa supervised your thesis." "I'd be happy to take it on." "We can discuss it whenever you like." "You're losing it." "I'm not." "You found him dead and took the tape." "I didn't!" "She did it!" "She took the tape!" " Why should I show it to you?" " Because I showed you mine." " Why do you want it?" " Why do you?" " It's for my thesis..." " Bullshit!" "What the fuck's on it?" "I don't know." "What?" "I haven't seen it yet." "You're stupid or what?" "Your place or mine?" "Give me the tape." "Let the fun begin." "I can't!" "Your loss." "Switch it off!" "It's real!" "What?" "A girl, tied to a chair, being beaten by a guy wearing a ski mask." "Why are you doing this to me?" "Shit, this is horrible!" "I can't..." "What's he going to do to her?" "Don't watch!" "I don't want to." "Don't look!" "Don't look!" "I know her." "She was at the university." "She disappeared two years ago." "Is she dead?" "What else?" "They blew her brains out." "What are they doing now?" " Cutting her up" " Jesus!" "Switch it off!" "I knew it!" "The bastard's a butcher." "Her name was Vanessa." "Why did they do it to her?" "It looks like a garage, doesn't it?" "Yes, it's a garage." " It is a garage!" " So what?" " She was tortured and killed." " You don't say!" "How can you watch this filth?" " You stole that filth!" " I didn't know what it was." "No, but you had an idea..." "deep down you like it." " What did you say?" " You heard me." "That's really stupid!" " Wait, what the hell's this?" " I'm not watching!" "I'm talking of the texture." "The horizontal lines..." "I only see intestines..." "You've learnt nothing in 5 years." "The texture's different." "So?" "It's a digital zoom!" "That asshole used digital zoom." "So what?" "We can find the camera he used." "How many cameras have digital zoom?" "5,000?" "10,000?" "How many were there two years ago?" "Not many." "Very few." "Autofocus, light control, stabilizer, stereo mike..." "Shit!" "Here: "Digital zoom - the center of the picture gets..."" "B-2000 - it only came out this year." "Let's see..." "Stroboscopic effect, solar effects..." "I'm sure that was the one" "The XT-500?" "Fuck, that's it!" "The XT-500" "Here it is, I'm sure" "Autofocus, audio dubbing..." "digital zoom." ""This feature offers..." ""...a significant enlargement of the original." There you go..." "He used a XT-500." " It's the Hi-8 system, I think" " Fascinating..." " Well, I'm going home for dinner." " You're hungry?" "No, scared." "Don't take it with you." "I want to see it again." "Her parents haven't heard from her." "Sena, come here." "Did you search my room?" "Why?" "Of course not." "I hate people snooping around." "It wasn't me." "Well, someone's been looking around" "It wasn't me." "You were after that tape, weren't you?" "Leave me alone." "It's Chema." "I've got something." "I'm not interested, got it?" " Someone's been in my room." " What?" "Calm down, will you?" " No one knows, don't panic!" " Of course not." "You'd better check your room as well." "No one's been in here." "But I must show you something." " I can't..." " Yes, you can!" " I don't want to!" " Yes, you do!" "It didn't seem important at first." "No, please, don't... please!" ""Please..."" "" Please..."" "There!" "What?" "It's a cut." "Look again." "No, please, don't... please!" "Why are you doing this to me?" "It's been edited." "Not just here, it's full of cuts." "All done in the same way - very subtle." "He's almost in the same position." "So why the cut?" "You want to see everything in films like these." "The more you see, the better." "So why cut it?" "So we won't see something." "Why me?" "Please " "She was going to say something." "What?" "Something he doesn't want us to hear." "His name." " She knew who he was." " So what?" "So now we know something about him." "You sound like the cop." "Hey, don't insult me." "We must find who were her friends." "He might be one of them." "Look..." "I've had enough of this." "You're scared." "Of course I am, this isn't a game." "It's a real murder." "Piss off, then." "I'll do this on my own." "You don't get it" " I said it's over!" "For you as well." "I don't want any trouble." " I won't get you into trouble." " So what will you do?" "Go after anyone with a camera like that?" "And if you find him?" "Or he finds you?" "That's my problem." "Right, it is." "I've never been here, I don't know you and I've never seen that tape." "What is cinema?" "Cinema is an industry, it's money." "It's millions invested in films and then retrieved at the box office." "We have no cinema because it's not seen as industry." "There's no communication between the makers and their public." "We've reached a critical stage." "Spanish cinema can only be saved if it's accepted as an industrial factor." "You, as students of cinema, are the future of Spanish cinema." "Save it!" "The American industry is strangling you and there's only one way to fight it:" "Give the public what it wants." "Don't forget that." "Angela, right?" "How do you do..." " A drink?" " No, thanks." "Here's my project." "Don't be so formal, I'm not that old." "I've neglected it lately." "Never mind, I just want to get an idea." "Anything else I need to know?" "Excellent." ""University Student Disappears"" ""Where is our Daughter?" ""Court blocks new inquiry in Vanessa Romero's case"" "That's all for today..." "see you tomorrow." "Don't forget to bring in your work." "What do you want?" "What do you want of me?" "This is yours!" "Are you doing Journalism?" "No, cinema and TV." " One of us?" " Give it to me, please." "Is this a project you're working on?" "No... well, yes, it's a project." " You're in luck." " Why?" "I knew her." "A friend of my girlfriend." "I know what happened." "That's alright, thanks..." "I've got all I need." "There are things you don't know." "Where were you?" "Yolanda, this is..." "Angela." "She's doing a project on Vanessa." "Can I have a word?" "Hi, roadrunner." "Is it really a project or are you kidding me?" "No, it's true." "And the camera?" "Camera?" "For the project?" "Oh, of course." " Well, the truth is..." " You're confused." "What?" "No, the thing is..." "we still haven't got it." "We've got to get authorization." "Will this do?" "I've had enough!" "It's bullshit." "You've got to help me!" "To interview him?" "He pushed me." "Pushed you?" "What does one ask a killer?" "Was Vanessa a normal girl?" "I'm glad you asked: she was a wonderful girl, full of life until I killed her, of course." "Did she mix with weird types?" "No, she was a saint." "Did Vanessa seem odd prior to her disappearance?" "What do I know?" " Do you think she was killed?" " You can't ask that!" " It's fundamental." " You'll fuck up if you ask that." "If I don't, he'll think I'm avoiding the issue." "Who care what he might think." "This isn't your thesis." "What is it?" "I'm leaving." "Why?" "Because." "Great." "Alright, I'm sorry." "Where are my keys?" "So what's his name?" "Where are my keys?" " What's this?" " These are my sister's." " I never lose my keys." " Welcome to the club." "This is Bosco and this is Chema." "How's it going?" " Is that the camera?" " Chema's the cameraman." " You know how it works?" " I think so." "When you're ready." "Bosco was in class with Vanessa." "Can you tell us what happened?" "Well, Vanessa didn't come to class for several days." "When we phoned her, they said she's disappeared." "The police looked for her for months but we never heard from her again." "You think she was kidnapped?" "Some say so, but it's absurd." "She sent one letter in which she wrote.... ...that she was in love with some guy and ran off with him." "There was no ransom demand." "Didn't you think it strange that you knew nothing about her private life?" "I don't spy on people..." "do you?" "Any idea who she'd run away with?" "No, but knowing Vanessa, it had to be someone very special." " In what way?" " In every way" "Vanessa..." "Two years have gone by and I'm sure you've made a new life for yourself." "But wherever you are your friends won't forget you." "Please, Vanessa..." "Come back, I love you." " He was crying..." " Bullshit!" " Suppose he's honest." " Don't fall for it." "You look at his angelic face and believe every word he says." " Do you fancy him?" " Don't be silly." "Don't you be silly." "But that letter..." "The letter just says she fell in love." " Who with?" " Who do you think?" "How can you so sure?" "And besides Bosco has a girlfriend." "Get this into your head." "Apart from being a stuck-up little turd, he is a psychopath..." "That's all he is." "Can't you see how he looks at you?" "He's dying to blow your brains out while he fucks you." " He's mad!" " Sounds like you know him." "Right, go for him." "He'll come round with a camera and a knife." " So what now?" " Nothing." "Why?" "We know who he is, now let's go home." "We must tell the police." "Like hell we do!" "Not me, anyway..." "We've no proof." "We don't even know where the old man got the tape." "From the library." "No way." "Anyone home?" "A friend of yours is here." "He's gorgeous." "Is Angela home?" " She is, come on in." " Thanks." "A bit on edge, aren't you?" "You know where I live?" "I do my own investigations." "So what do you want?" "I brought you the interview." "Thank you, there was no need." "That's not why I came." "Why then?" "I want to shoot you" "What?" "There are no shots of you interviewing me." "We need them for the editing." "Sure, I forgot." "Right, when you're ready." "Here?" "It's in close-up." "You can't tell where we are." "You'll see." "Where's your room?" "I don't like being taped." "I don't believe that." "A pretty girl like you?" "Don't worry, it won't take long." "Had this camera long?" "Around... four months." "It's no longer on the market." "God, you do know everything." "I got it second-hand." "Why do you ask?" "No special reason." "You like asking questions, don't you?" "Can I ask you one?" "Go ahead." "What color are my eyes?" "I don't know..." "I haven't really looked." "I see... so you're a liar as well." "How much longer?" "You're in a hurry?" "It's almost lunch." "You'll stay for lunch, Bosco?" "Love to." "Great, I'm going out for a few things." "Be good." "What are you doing?" "The light's bad for this camera." "Sit on the bed." "Why?" "I can't get a good focus from here." "Sit on the bed." "That's it." "Ready when you are." "We're talking to Bosco, a classmate of Vanessa who was close to her prior to " "Aren't you checking?" "It's one straight shot." "Look at me when you ask the questions." "Did she mix with weird types?" "Do you think she was kidnapped?" "Any idea who she ran away with?" "That's it." "Hang on." "You need some nods as reaction to my answers." "For intercuts." "Wait..." "What?" " We were closer yesterday." " I don't think so." "Does it bother you?" "Say when it starts bothering you." "Don't!" "Every word brings me an inch closer." "It's not funny." "Don't speak." "Nervous?" " Of course not." " Not a word!" "The mouth can kill." "I'm not going to die." ""I'm-not-going-to-die"" "Five inches." "What color are my eyes?" "Are you going to kill me?" "Six more inches for saying that." "Just one more word and we collide." "I thought you wanted this." "Next time I'll punch your face." "There won't be a next time." "Angela, don't let Bosco set the table." " Who switched channels?" " I did, the news is boring." "How would you know?" "Where's the remote?" "So you work as well as study?" "I do some filming." "What kind?" "Whatever I get: weddings..." " Baptisms..." " Does it pay?" "Enough." "Angela never does such things." "She works hard on her thesis." "You're doing your thesis?" "I've just started." "On what?" "I'm not sure yet." "Audiovisual violence in a family enviroment." "You're into violence?" "Not really." "She loves it." "She's warped." "She spends hours analyzing violent films." "Shut up, Sena." "Is this project part of your thesis?" "No, why?" "The last film she brought home was really something." "You're doing a project?" "What is it about?" "Shall we eat?" "We've talked enough." "What do you study?" " I started law this year." " Law?" "What do you know..." "I wanted to do law." "Really?" "So why didn't you?" "Don't know, I'm not cut out for it" "You've got to be very... ..tenacious... and very intelligent." " I'm neither and I'm studying it." " Your food is getting cold." "You look it." "What?" "Intelligent..." "How's Yolanda?" "Who's Yolanda?" "His girlfriend." "We've broken up." "Really?" "More or less..." "this meat is excellent." "He's been to your house?" "Fuck!" "Why did you let him in?" "I can't help it, he charmed my family." "It's you he's charmed." "With me, not even coffee, but him you invite home!" "Stop being silly!" "He says he bought it 4 months ago, second-hand." "That snob asshole using second-hand?" "Never." "He bought it new, with warranty." "He's got you again." "We can check." "You either believe him or me." "That's rubbish!" "Look, I've lost the receipt and the shop doesn't have it either but..." " They said you'd have it." " What was it?" "A XT-500 camera." "You must have bought it..." "Two years ago." "The guarantee's expired." "I know, but I need to keep the receipts." "Alright... 1993..." " You live in Madrid?" " Yes." "Your name?" "It's my brother's" " Bosco Herranz." "He must come himself." "They said it's not necessary on the phone." "Who told you?" "Some girl, I think." "One moment, please." ""Customer:"" ""Customer unknown"" ""ltem:"" "I knew it!" "Freddy Kruger himself." "Haven't seen you for a while." "I've been busy." " Jerking off?" " Less than you." "Can I look at the closed-circuit tapes?" "You want me to get fired?" "The 12th, the library." "Slow down." "What do I get?" "My body." "No, thanks." "High-class porn." "How did you get in?" "What do you want?" "Don't you know?" "To kill you." "The phone." "Someone called Castro." " I hope I didn't wake you up." " Not at all." "I'd like to discuss your thesis." "How about later this morning, my office." " Fine..." " Great." "I'll see you later then." "Is Angela there?" "No, she's out." "Come in." " How are you?" " Fine..." "Have a seat." "Cigarette?" "I don't smoke, thanks." "Right, let's see..." "It's somewhere here..." "It's a disaster." "Here it is." "Let's see..." "Why are you interested in violence?" "We get so much of it in films, on TV, that we're getting too used to it." "So?" "I'm concerned" "Why?" "Because I don't like violence." "You reject it?" "Of course." "Always?" "Yet violence is something that is innate in us all." "We can't censor every film." "But the director must be aware of its impact." "The director's only duty is to give the public what it wants" "That's the basic principle of all entertainment" "Do you reject show-business?" " No, but..." " It's a very complex issue." "For example..." "On what type of violence will you focus?" "How do you mean?" "Any particular genre?" "I got the impression - and correct me if I'm wrong..." "I find that your approach is rather..." " Superficial?" " Yes" "You should get in deeper." "This is meant to be a research project." "These are just notes, I'm not done." "So you're investigating?" "lnvestigating what?" "I don't know..." "it's for you to tell me." "Tell you what?" "What you're investigating" "I didn't say I was, you did." "Alright." "Since you seem reluctant to collaborate..." "I don't get it." "I'll tell you... try a different angle." "What killed Figueroa?" "Why ask me?" "He was your supervisor." "You must know what killed him." "You said it was an asthma attack." "He was quite old." "What was in the screening room..." "What was it he saw that could have killed him." "Any idea?" "You like theories..." "don't you have one?" "No, I don't." "Look, Angela..." "I think you're an intelligent girl." "I'm sure you'll go far." "That's why I don't understand your behavior..." "I don't understand yours." "Really?" "You don't get me?" "I think you do." "Think whatever you like." "I think I've heard enough." "You know something?" "So have I." "I hate such situations." "It's humiliating to be caught lying..." "Like this, especially." "Don't you agree?" "It makes you wonder:" "why do people lie?" "Why are you lying?" "What's on that tape." "So you've lost your voice." "Very well..." "I want that tape in my office, tomorrow." "Agreed?" "Now tell me." "Why did you take it?" " Is Angela there?" " No, who is it?" "Where is she?" "She had a meeting with some professor." "Who?" "Angela, I can't supervise a student who steals, lies and, worst of all who doesn't trust me." "So, for the last time, why did you take it?" "I don't know." " Where did you get it?" " I don't know." "Was it yours?" "You wanted it back?" " So why take it?" " I don't know." "I'm getting tired of this." "No professor here will take up your thesis if you're not straight with them." "It has nothing to do with my thesis." "It's far more serious." "I'm all ears." "No one else knows this." "What?" "It's for you." "You can take in there." "Angela, it's Chema." "What are you doing there?" " Get out, now!" "That guy's in it." " How do you know?" " He knows about the tape?" " He knows I took it." "So he knows everything." "He'll want it." "Find some excuse and get out!" " I've got to go..." " Do you?" "I'll see you..." "Shouldn't we finish..." " It's my thesis, my degree?" " It's your life!" " I tried to get you all day yesterday." " I called you too." " He'll be after me now." " He's one of them." " I thought it was just Bosco." " You were wrong." " How many are there?" " No idea, but Castro is one of them." " How do you know?" " How did he know you had the tape?" "Because he saw me on the closed-circuit camera." "Yes, and another camera taped him." " That's Figueroa" " Wait..." "Where was he?" "Around the corner." "He found out everything, including the tape." "What's in that corner?" "An underground store-room where they hide things." "What things?" "I've taken some." "Vanessa wasn't the only victim." "It's not an isolated incident." "It's a business." "Torture, murders..." "It's all down there." "The cameras must be there too." "What cameras?" "13 XT-500, bought by the faculty two years ago." "Do you know what it means?" "To begin with, Bosco may not even be involved." "Again?" "Why do you defend him?" "There are 13 cameras." "Any student could have filmed it." " No student made this film!" " How do you know?" "Because I - I did projects with those cameras." "What?" "Before they were scrapped." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I'm telling you now." "It's nothing to do with this." "Those cameras are just gathering dust somewhere." "They're gone." "Nobody knows where they are." "Great." " They must be down there." " There are only tapes." " We must find them." " I was there, there's nothing." " Tonight, Chema!" " Fuck, no!" "Listen to me, just once." "You're doing it for him." "You're in love with him, you idiot." "Tonight, idiot!" "What do you want?" "To talk to you." "About?" "Vanessa was killed." "We all had nothing but lectures so Vanessa and I joined a directors' workshop, Bosco too." "We did some practice with cameras." " What type?" " I don't know, I don't remember." "One guy took the whole thing very seriously." "He was always telling us what to do." "Then Bosco and that other guy became friends." "They started working together." "They asked one girl to act for them" "She had to take off her clothes and..." "Well, I left them to it." "Why?" "It was awful." "And the professor said nothing?" " Who was it?" " Jorge Castro." "Do you know him?" "It got worse." "Towards the end of the year Bosco's friend told us about Snuff." "Do you know what it is?" "They choose some person kidnap, torture, kill them and record it all on tape or film." "No editing, no effects, no make-up." "All in one sequence shot." "That guy was obsessed with Snuff." "Vanessa and I got scared..." "He said it was very easy to make such stuff." "I told Bosco we should pull out." "And?" "They stopped seeing each other." "I don't know why." "The workshop closed." "And a week later, Vanessa disappeared." "They said she ran away from home." "But she would've told me." "I'm sure that guy killed her." "He used her in a snuff film." "And the letter?" "They sent it after she disappeared." "She was probably forced to write it." "And that guy?" "Your friend, with the glasses." "I've seen you with him." "There are more." "Do you watch TV?" "More cases like Vanessa's" "Five girls in two years." ""The police suspects..." ""...a snuff video network." No other clear motive." "No bodies." "Have you told Bosco?" "We hardly talk nowadays." "Besides, he won't believe me." "Chema wouldn't do it." "You never know." " I know him." " So do I." "I know it's him." " You don't believe me?" " You said it." "And this?" "Is that also a lie?" ""You had many lovers, none of them are alive today..." "They died, crushed under, while they were making love."" "We can go?" "You knew Bosco before." "Did you?" "Did you know him?" "Yes" "Great!" "Thanks for telling me now." "You told him about Snuff." "So?" "Making snuff movies is something else." "Why look for Vanessa's friends?" "You know who they are." "I hardly knew Vanessa or her friends." "I only knew Bosco." "Why aren't you friends anymore?" " I didn't trust him." " Oh, really?" "He looks like nice guy, but he's a asshole." "So are you, you lied to me you said you weren't involved." "So you wouldn't associate me with Bosco!" "I didn't want to scare you." "I didn't want you to think that I..." "And you care what I think?" "You're right, think what you like." " Suppose I think that..." " What?" "Nothing, forget it." "What about the cameras?" "I know the security guy." "Now what?" "It's somewhere here." "This way." "These tunnels lead to the boiler room." "No one's been down here in years." "This way." "See?" "Only tapes." "Figueroa took the first one he saw." "How many are there?" "About 200." "Must be good business." "What are you doing?" "Looking for the cameras." "Shit!" " What is it?" " The masters." " Worth a fortune." " You mean, the originals?" " No, but they must be here." " Chema, don't waste time." "The unedited originals:" "that's our evidence." "They must have destroyed them." "What was that?" " It's closed from outside" " I don't believe it!" "It may be worse." "Worse?" " We've been locked in!" " Chema, where are you?" " Beside you, you're choking me!" " What's going on?" " God knows." "Do you smoke?" " No..." " Shit, we need a lighter!" " I have matches." " Do you really?" " I think so." "You're panting..." "like a dog." "Give me the matches." "It's half empty... good!" "We've got to move, they mustn't find us." "There... over there, look!" "Someone's watching us." "It's our shadows..." "it's just our shadows!" "You disappoint me." " I'm scared." " So am I but that won't get us out." " What's happened?" " Match burned out." "Chema, hold me." " What?" " Someone touched me!" "You told me to hold you!" "Don't leave me." "Why are you so quiet?" "Why don't you talk?" " What can I say?" " I don't know." "Tell me who you are, what do you do?" "I'm Chema, I'm walking, I'm walking, I'm Chema." "Hi, I'm Chema." "You're squeezing my arm too tight." "I'm sorry." "I'll tell you a story..." "A children's story." "Once upon a time, there was a princess who lived in a castle." "And?" "This way..." "When she was thirteen they gave a great party for her, with clowns, jugglers, acrobats..." "But the princess was bored." "Then an ugly dwarf appeared..." "He danced, he did pirouettes..." ""Please keep dancing", said the princess." "But the dwarf was too tired, so the sad princess went to her room." "The dwarf went after her, he was sure she would go and live with him in the woods." ""She's not happy here", he thought." ""I'll look after her, I'll make her laugh"" "So the dwarf searched the castle for the princess' room." "But in one of the rooms he saw something terrible." "A monster with bloody and crossed eyes hairy hands and huge feet." "When he realized he was seeing himself in the mirror, he almost died." "At that moment, the princess walked in." ""You're back, how nice!" "Will you dance with me again?"" "But the dwarf was lying, lifeless, on the floor." "The court doctor checked his pulse." ""He won't dance for you again, Princess"." ""Why?" she asked." ""Because he's heartbroken"." "And the Princess said:" ""From now on..." ""...no one with a heart may enter this castle"." "Here the story ends and the match bends." "There's no way to tell which way to go." " There must be another exit." " So what?" "We can't see a thing." "Chema, bring the match here." "What is it?" " What now?" " Burn it!" "Go on!" "Shit!" "It's the editing room." "Look!" "I told you." "These must be the scrapped ones." "Maybe, but Bosco's camera might be one of these." "I'm cold." "Do you want my coat?" "No, thanks." "Good..." "How many matches left?" "Shit!" "What now?" "I don't know." "Take something else off." " Why don't you?" " Fine, so it was a silly idea." "Are they going to kill us?" "Oh, yes." "What are we going to do?" "Shit, it's going out." "Never mind." "I can't see your face." "I can't tell if it's you or someone else." "Five..." "Four, three, two..." " It's not funny." " One..." "Good-bye, Princess." "I'm freezing." "You can hug me, if you want to." "I want to." "Go on, then." "Chema?" "Don't look at the track!" "What color are my eyes?" "You've fallen in love with him, idiot!" "Why did Figueroa die?" ""Because he's heartbroken"..." "The police knows everything." "You've lied to me before." "You killed Vanessa and the others." "I've never killed anyone." "I only edit the films." " Have you seen them?" " They're filth." "You give the public what it wants." "It's just the beginning." "Who killed them then?" "I'll tell you if you tell me who phoned you this morning." "You know what's going to happen now." "That person won't be coming." "I don't know where he is." "You're lucky, because I won't make you suffer." "It'll be painless." "Now, please..." "For your own good..." "Don't move your head." "His name is Jorge Castro." "He's pointing a gun at me." "Very well..." "Don't move." "My name is Angela, I'm going to be killed." "Exactly." "He's dead." "You wanted to see a killing, right?" "Wanted to see a killing?" "I've found a way out." "I didn't pull the trigger, he did." "I didn't kill him." "What are we going to do now?" "What do we do?" "You can shut your mouth to begin with!" "We mustn't see each other for a while." "I'll take the masters with me." "Let the bastard come after them." "And if it's not him?" "The Third Man." " Citizen Kane?" " No, The Third Man..." "Told you!" "What's wrong?" "Nothing..." "I'm going to bed." "I thought you were out with Sena and your friend." "Which friend?" "Bosco, he phoned a while ago and they went out." "Did they say where?" " What are you doing here?" " Where is he?" " In the toilet." "Want a drink?" " No, let's get out!" "He left his girl, he fancies me!" "Let's go home!" "Why?" "Sena, please, just go!" " Why?" " Bosco's with me now." " He's not interested in you." " And I'm supposed to believe you?" "I'm going to the toilet." "It's that way." "What's going on?" " Don't hurt me!" " How am I going to do that?" "What do you want from me?" " Leave my sister alone." " It's you I want." "What for?" "I told you not to come here." "Let's go to the police." "Sure, right away." " I mean it." " Leave me alone!" " Hey, move aside!" " You little shit!" " I don't want to go to jail." " You won't, it was self-defense." " Who'll believe me?" " It's on tape!" " We now know about the cameras..." " So what?" "The cops don't like me." "Nobody does." "Last night..." "Chema, I can't take any more." "You don't say!" "Let's go to the police or I'll go mad." "Where are you going?" "To take a shower." "We must look presentable." "I won't abandon you." "Me neither." " Chema, where are the masters?" " Can't hear you!" "Hello?" "Police..." "Why did you bolt the door?" " What's going on?" " What do you mean?" " Someone's been calling all day." " Who?" "Don't know, they thought I was you." "What did they say?" "That I'm a whore and they're going to kill me." "It's him." "Angela..." "It was a girl." "Bosco, I know you're there." "You can't fool me any more." "Stop lying... you were seen last night at the disco." "How could you?" "The bitch doesn't love you, she lies." "They all do!" "Nobody loves you as I do." "Bosco, you can't leave me like this." "You just can't!" "I won't let you do it." "You know I'm capable of anything..." "Do you hear me?" " Don't let anyone in!" " Where are you going?" "I won't be long." " What are you doing here?" " Can I come in?" "I called your home and they gave me this address." "I come here on weekends." "Come on in." " Are you alone?" " My parents only come in the summer." " Sorry to bother you..." " Don't worry." "I was trying to study..." "I'm glad you came." " Yolanda knows about last night." " I know." "I want you to talk to her." "What for?" "We've broken up." "She's been calling my home." "Ignore her." "She threatened to kill me." "You're not the first." "What do you mean?" "She can't stand me talking to other girls." "She's just too much." "She threatened all of them." "Vanessa too?" "What?" "She knew about you and Vanessa?" "What are you talking about?" "There was nothing between me and Vanessa." "You're always up to something." "Yolanda's right." "You are something else." "I'm beginning to think so too." "Poor Angela." "Always so tense..." "So I should be." "Tell me why?" "Tell me." "What is it?" "I don't want keep on with this." "Are you toying with me?" "I'd better leave." " You were different last night." " I was drunk." "Liar." "Are you ever going to tell me?" " What?" " That you like me." "I like you." "Then, what are you waiting for?" "It's the lights." "Must be a blown fuse." "I'll have a look." "Bosco?" " I've come to save you again." " Don't!" "Come on, give me the gun..." "Wanted kill me, did you?" "Son of a bitch, you tried to kill me!" "You little shit!" "You always were!" "Call an ambulance." "Let's tie him up first." "Why, Chema?" "Why?" "The garage..." "The garage..." "Out of the way." "I'm going to kill you." "Say hello..." "Say: "Hello"" "She went mad this afternoon." "I had to kill her." "She never understood." "I expected you to be more clever." "But I was wrong." "Right, let me tell you what we're going to do." "Hello, hello, testing, testing." "Look at the camera, please." "First I'm going to beat you up." "For a while..." "Then you'll faint and I'll wait till you come round." "Then I'll cut your arms and legs." "Then I'll mutilate you." "I'm not sure how..." "I'll decide as we go along." "If I chop off your hand I may put it on your head." "Like a coronet." "That silly shit is a lot of fun." "Or I'll make you eat your ear and if I can I'll take out your guts before you die." "Terrifying, isn't it?" "Look at me!" "Terrifying, right?" "When you're almost dead I'll shoot you in the mouth." "Then I'll chop you up and get rid of you." "Real shoddy job what you did on Castro." "Right, then." "We're ready." "Don't move!" "Don't move!" "It's that hand..." "I won't hurt you." "That hand..."
