"DON'T CALL ME SON" " Hello, sweety." " Hi." " Did you sleep well?" " Yeah..." "Sleepy face." "Just one spoon, OK?" "The world Drummond describes in this poem is not any world." "It's not today's world." "It's a world in war." "A world full of dictators, without freedom." "A world with death." "And when you see the poetic persona saying "My memories trickle down"..." ""..." "I have only two hands, I'm powerless"." ""When I get up, the sky will be dead and looted"." ""I.e., I'll be alone"." "Guys, it's tough to live in a world where you look at the sun and the sun is dark." "The sun is darker than night, the sun doesn't warm up, doesn't shine." "It's more like Ice Age than global warming." "Can you picture that?" "We live in a tropical country, but imagine living in a tropical country where the sun is dark." "Pierre..." "Do you understand this chaotic, dark world we live in?" "It's very important to look at this poem and hear the voice of despair, the lack of serenity conveyed by the words." "Go straight from the solo." "From the solo and then the come back." "And come back to "if you don't listen to me, the world will fall apart"." "Hey, got the weed?" "Man, why that face?" " We're in the middle of the rehearsal, OK?" " OK." " Wal..." "You're an asshole, huh?" "What?" "Wal..." "What?" "We're in the middle of the rehearsal." "So what, can't you kiss me?" "No!" " Fuck you!" " Fuck you!" "Son of a bitch!" "Cut it out the two of you!" " Fucking asshole!" " Damn it." "Fuck!" "Give me the guitar." "Scientifically proven." "79% of women who used anti-cellulite cream for four weeks were satisfied." "Pierre?" " Hi." " Where's mom?" "See?" "I'm hungry" "Do you want me to make you an egg?" " And can you?" " Yes." "OK." " Is it good?" " It's tasty." "Can I taste it?" "Give me your plate." " Mom!" " Hey!" "I'm home." "Where were you?" "You took so long!" "You're very late." "Are you all going to control my life now, huh?" "Cut it out, guys, I'm just a bit late." "But where were you, mom?" "I was doing my things." "Let's have dinner?" "Mom, who are those people outside?" "Pierre, go outside." "They want to talk with you." " Hello Pierre, good evening." " Good evening." " You are Pierre Almeida, right?" " Yes." "Dona Aracy's son?" "How do you do?" "I'm agent Sakurai from police." "Ask Selma to take Lavinia to school..." "And where's Joselito?" "0k, no, no, no." "You'll have to son this out today..." "OK, OK, bye." "Bye." "Sorry to make you wait." "Dona Aracy Costa Almeida, right?" " Pierre Almeida?" " Right." "Pierre, did your mom talk to you?" " Sure." " No." " How come?" " She didn't." "OK." "We got a delation that you're not Dona Aracy's son." "That's absurd." "It's ridiculous." "Shall I get his birth certificate at home?" "I have it." "We have witnesses of his birth." " Who said that?" " That's ridiculous." "I can't say." "It's underjudicial confidentiality, I can't tell you." " Today you'll have a DNA test done." " Today?" "Yes, today." " No, no." " You knew it was today." "No, I didn't." "Yes, you knew the test was today." "The problem is I didn't talk to my son, he suffers from low blood pressure," "I suffer from high blood pressure." "And we need a few days." "Can't we reschedule it?" "No, we can't." "It has to be today, the date is today." "Don't worry Dona Aracy, it'll be alright." "OK?" "Seventh floor, room 116." "The results come out fast." " Good afternoon." " Pierre, Dona Aracy?" "That's right." "Take a seat." "Who's first?" "I'm nurse Lourengo." "I'll collect the material for the requested tests." "Can't we do this any other way?" "I don't think so, Dona Aracy." "Put your elbow here." "I'll tighten a bit here and ask you to close your hand." "Have you ever drawn blood before?" "No, that's the problem, you see?" "He's never done it." " I see." " That's why I'm worried, he has..." "But the procedure is very simple." "NO. no. no!" "I need you to keep your arm still or I may hurt you." "I'll ask you to close your fist." "That's it." "Well done." "Right, just a little." "Are you OK?" "He's dizzy." "Take a deep breath and you'll feel better." "Can you get UP?" "Let him take some air first." "Here, have some water." " Would you like some juice, morn?" " Yes, please." "Pierre?" "I want to take a shower." "Just a second." "Look, I'll say it one last time." "Gas." "Gas, when you leave home, close the tap." "It cannot be open." "And there's that trick." "Yes." "The oven knob doesn't work." "It's simple." "You're not stupid." "Now this is important, look." "The chicken is here." "It's enough for two days." "Tuesdays and Thursdays, chicken." "Mondays and Wednesdays it's meat." "The other days are free." "Rice's here, all ready." " What's in the fridge?" " The little one, the ground beef." "In the blue tupperware, right?" "The soup also, ok?" "In the round tupperware." "I told you, fuck." " Money..." " Right." "The money's here." "If I need more, who do I ask?" "Vania?" "Ask Vania, son it out." "Vania you're gonna do the washing, right?" "Yes." "Vania will do the washing." "She'll come once a week to wash it." " Don't forget their uniforms, huh?" " I know." " They don't have many t-shins." " Don't worry." "Okay." "It's them." "It's alright, sweety?" "It's alright, ok?" "Give mommy a smile." "Mommy will be back to fix you dinner." "Don't worry, don't worry, ok?" "Mommy will be back to fix you dinner." "Stay here with with auntie Vania." "Come on, mom." "God be with you." "Go, Go." "Vania." "Go." "Pray for me, my friend." " Be strong." " Pray for me, everyday." "Cuffs in front of her family?" ""Om!" "Please, that's not necessary." "What are you looking at, damn it." "Fuck off, this is a lie!" "Pierre, Pierre!" "Go to hell all of you!" " Aracy!" " Get lost!" " Mom, let me go too!" " Sweety, go back!" "Pierre!" "Pierre!" "Pierre!" "Cut if off!" "Cut it off!" "Go mind your business." " How shameful!" " Go mind your business." "Idiots." "Eat a little, dude." "Eat some." "Pierre, you spent the whole day here..." "You need to eat, get some glucose into you." "You need to eat something, dude." "I'll speak openly with you, you're seventeen and..." " I think you deserve it." " I know I was adopted, ok?" "My mother told me and I'm ok with that." "You weren't adopted, Pierre, you were stolen." "It's quite different, you know?" "Adoption is when a mother doesn't want her child and hands it to another to care." "But someone got into that hospital and stole you." "You're a miracle, dude..." "It's been seventeen years looking for you." "Think, 17 times 365." "It's more than 5000 days, man." "5000 offerings, 5000 prayers." "I think your mother prayed so much that the saint got fed up and handed you over." "Here's some pictures of your family." "This is your father, his name's Matheus." " I have a family already." " Look, Pierre." "Look, those people spent ages looking for you, dude." "This is your mother." "Her name is Gloria." "And you have a brother, dude." "Joaquim, his name is Joca." "Pierre..." "Do you wanna know your real name?" "I already have a name." " Just a few words, please." " Pierre..." " Pierre?" "Pierre?" " Move away." "Please, just a statement, Felipe." " Please, Felipe?" " Felipe?" "Felipe, talk to us." "Felipe, what do you think about your mother's behavior?" "Please, move away." "Please, just a few words." "It's Pierre, damn it!" "MONSTER" "Pierre..." "I'm Sueli." "How do you do?" "I'm lara, I'm the aunt." "I'm the social assistant." "What are you doing here?" "I'm a psychologist." " 0k, where's my mom?" " I'll look after you." "Your mother stayed at the police station." "And when will she be back?" "I don't know yet, she needs to answer some questions." "But what did she do?" "Look..." "There's a family claiming to be your brother's biological parents." "Biological means your brother was born from another mother." "I know, but..." "We still don't know and that's why we have to talk to her." "I'm going to be here..." " So..." " Forgive me..." "I'm lara, the dad's cousin, but they call me auntie." "Right, right, I'm Sueli." "I'm a Social Assistant." "How are things there?" "It's bad, isn't it?" "We still don't know." "We need to talk to Aracy." "But is there any prediction?" " It depends on how..." " She's not coming back, is she?" "I don't think so." "Aracy left everything with me, all the instructions..." "Do the children go to school in the morning, afternoon?" "So..." "You see, I'm from Campinas." "So I can stay for two weeks at the most..." "That's okay." "I'll stay here." "Fuck." " Is everything alright there?" " Yes, yes." "Is this the children's father?" "Yes, but he's deceased." "Good evening, madam." "Good evening, sir." "How do you do?" "A table for how many?" "I don't know." "How many?" "We're four, their aunt is bringing them, seven." " Seven." "We're seven." " How about this table here?" "I think I prefer over there." "I'll join two tables, then." "Ok." "I'll help you." "I'll just put the chairs here." "Is it alright here?" "It's great." "Nice place." "My god, what an..." "Awkward situation." " What would you like to drink?" " Water." " Soda." " A Martini for me, please." "Me too." "We have a house sangria." "Would you like to try it?" " OK." " Me too." "Water..." "Gosh, folks." "Dad, I have to get this." "It's quick." " Oh, come on, Joca." " It's quick." "I won't be long." " We had a deal, remember?" " I know, it's quick." "Not cool, huh?" "But at least I tried!" "How could she..." "Can I have a quick word with her?" "She doesn't want to speak to me?" "How ridiculous!" "Bruna, Bruna." "Let me talk to her." "Just a minute." "So she doesn't want to?" "I'll explain to you then." "Itried to talk to her once and she said she was embarrassed to be seen with me." "She said she was embarrassed, you see?" "Later, ltried to speak to her and she didn't want to talk to me." "Ok?" "So, I think..." "She coming to you to talk to me saying I did something I didn't do..." "I can't believe..." "I can't believe she's saying this behind my back." "You see?" "Apart from the lack of courage to talk to me, she's lying behind my back." "You see?" "She doesn't want to?" "OK." "I don't want to either." "If she had at least talked to me..." "We could at least have understood eachother better." "But if she doesn't want to, fine, it's not my business." "OK." "Bye." "I won't miss the chance to make a toast." "Hey, Joca..." "Come here." "This is your brother." "Jaqueline." "Aunt Lucy." "Ia ra." "Au nt la ra." "Are you OK?" "What grade are you in?" "He's a sophomore, right?" "Back in my days High School was called "Scientific"." " Now it's changed, right?" " Everything changes." "Everything changes in life, right?" "And what do you want to do?" "What do you want to be?" "He likes music." "He plays in a band." "A band?" "I had a band..." "I had a band..." "Says the man who played the banjo." "Banjo in the band." "Banjo in the band." "Good thing!" "You can play guitar, the drums, but banjo?" "Joca..." "It was cool." "You paint your nails?" "Yeah, I do." "To play in the band?" "It's because it's rock, right?" "I want to make a toast." "A toast to Felipe." "Pierre." "Pierre." "A toast to Pierre." "Cheers, cheers, Joca." "It's warm in here." "So, do you support any team?" "Football?" "He doesn't really like football." "But none?" "I don't know..." "Corinthians." "Not great, but..." "I don't like football either." " Does it matter?" " It does." "Oh, that doesn't matter." "It does." "Being in the Second Division does matter." "I'll..." "I'll be back..." " He's going to the toilet." " Shall I go there?" "Are you OK?" "He looks like my dad." "The dude's like my dad." "Amazing, huh?" "Felipe?" " Felipe?" " What?" "Oh, you're there." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" " Huh?" " What do you think?" "I don't know." "The toilet's a place for many things." "Are you upset?" "Tell me something." "Are you going to live in my house?" "No freaking way." "You don't want it either?" "Me?" "No..." "Dude, what are you doing in there?" "Huh?" " Felipe?" " What, damn it?" "My mother's been waiting for you for ages and you're gonna stay in there?" "Open it." "It's the end of a nightmare, huh?" "The nightmare's over." "It is..." "I can't even..." "No, we can't even start imagining what..." "Have you been doing this for long?" " What?" " Working as a Social Assistant." "It's been a while, gosh, nearly twenty years I think..." "The one for the road's done, right?" "It was a good last one." "I'm leaving the amp here for next week." "That's fine." " See you." " See you." " Do you wanna a beer or something?" " Yeah." "If you wanna eat anything, there's food." "Thanks." " Thanks." " Are you going?" "Bye." "Everything's gonna be alright, OK?" "Relax." "Back to your places." "Straighten your kimonos." "In the front, to greet." "Close your legs." "The two of you may sit." " May I go drink some water again?" " You may go again." "Excuse me, teacher." "Pierre is being called at the director's office." "What is it?" "I was stolen too!" "What happened?" "Jaqueline's DNA test results have come out." "Hi, yes." "She's here." "The Chief of Police is coming with her biological father." "I can't speak now." "What time is it, Matheus?" "They'll be here at any moment, calm down." "Let me answer it." "Hello?" "Yes, let them in, thanks." "They're here." "I'll go to the gate, OK?" "Yes, go." " Marli..." " Yes." "Marli, they're here." "Hi." "Welcome!" " Hello, how do you do?" " Lara, this is Marli." "How are you?" " Look, Marli." " The big boy." "Felipe." "Come in, come in, everyone." "This way, please." "Hi, what's up?" " Make yourselves comfortable." " Lara, do you want some whiskey?" " Yes, please." " Juice?" "What a beautiful painting." "I work with art too, I paint." "That's great." "The whole house is beautiful, full of..." "Would you like to see the rest?" "Shall we see the whole house?" "This is where we have lunch and dinner." " Wow, nice." " The dinning room." " This way, look." " Lilies are good to harmonize the room." "I love lilies." "This is the kitchen." "Marli, when it's ready, can you serve it, please?" " OK." " And some juice and whiskey, OK?" "Shall we go upstairs?" "See the bedrooms." "This way." "Joca, let's show your room." "Come, son." "Shall we go upstairs?" "Then you can see the bedrooms." "This way." "Come, lara." "Wow, is this you?" "Yes, a portrait of me." "Cool." "This is Joca's bedroom." "It's a suite." " There's a climbing wall." " Yes." "Cool, huh?" "Come see your bedroom, Pierre." "Wow, big room!" "I didn't put anything so you can make it your way." "It'll look great." "Shall we have dinner?" "It must be nearly served." "Let's go." "I've come straight from the class..." "I'm hungry." "Let me know when dinner's ready." "Excuse me." " Hi." " Hi, how are you?" "I'm lara." "We are Cristina's biological parents." "How do you do?" "Hi, my love!" "How are you?" "Cristina!" "Hi, beautiful." "She looks just like you." " Very similar." " Hi, Pierre." "How are you?" "Hello." "Let's go, my love!" "Shall we?" " Where are your suitcases?" " Would you like a drink?" "I think we'd better go to avoid traffic." "Let's go, darling." "Come on." "The coffee won't take a minute, you know?" "But the traffic..." " Was it hard to find it here?" " A little." "Shall we go, love?" "Come with daddy." "We're going to Disney." "Did she tell you?" "Yes." "She's excited about it." "Yes, we're going to Magic Kingdom, you know?" "There's the castle of the princesses." "Do you like the princesses?" "There's a dinner." "The princesses dress up, do their hair..." "Let's go, darling." "Come on." "There's this costume..." "Darling!" "Oh, Cristina..." " I don't want to go, auntie." " I know, darling." "I know." "You are scaring the girl like that." "For Jaque, it's like a bomb that felt on her head." "For you it's great joy, I know and I'm happy for you..." "But you must be a little patient, take a seat, have a snack." "It's gonna be alright." "It's gonna be alright." "Pierre is coming, right, Pierre?" "Iara, you come too, OK?" "Bye, thank you all." "Let's go." "Cristina, shall we stop for a hamburger?" "Do you like hamburgers?" "Cheeseburger?" "Coke?" "Let's go to McDonald's." "You'll love it." "Bye." "Bye." "Thank you, Sueli." " Do you want a cigarette?" " I don't smoke." "Take one." "Take one, man." "It'll be good." "No, I'm fine." "I have an idea." "Here." "Here, your turn." "Fuck!" "Come in, put it here." "So we can unpack it all." "Look, there's a big wardrobe." "With many hangers and drawers." "Put it in here, Joca." "Thanks, son." "Go get grandma's little red bag." " Sure, my pleasure!" " Oh, Joca." "I'll get it." "Pierre, your grandma sent you this." "Did you like it?" "It's cool." "Well, let's son things..." "How do you want to organize your shins?" " I can't open this." " Leave it for later." "No, let's unpack now." "Right." "Shoes go in the shoe rack." "What are these?" "Shorts." " Let's son t-shins, shorts." " I can do it..." "I'll do it later." "No, let me do it." "Look, like this." "Is this a T-shin?" "Some things are a bit creased." "I can iron them later." " This too, I think it's a t-shin, right?" " Leave it for later, really." "No, let's unpack now so you can relax." "Are all of these t-shins?" "T-shin." "This too." " And this." " No, wait." "Oh, a dress..." "Must have come by mistake." "It's a friend's." "Don't forget to return it later, OK?" "Leave it for later, really." "Look, we can put it..." "I'll organize it my way." "I just want to help you, son." "I want to rest now, seriously." "OK." "You prefer to leave it like this?" "Then you can put it..." "I'll just take a shower." "OK." "If you want, call me and I'll help you." "Is there a towel in the bathroom?" "There's a towel in the bathroom..." "Yes." "May I bring you a sandwich, somejuice?" "Do you like it?" " I'll just take a shower." " OK." "Can I..." "Are you sure?" "Pierre..." "Are you sure?" "Pierre..." "Pierre, mayl bring you the sandwich?" "I'll just take a shower." "May I bring the juice?" "Pierre..." "Darling, take a photo with Felipe." "Take a same." "Look, Gloria, get your phone." "Let's take a picture." "Joca, take a selfie with your brother." "Dora, don't you think he looksjust like..." "He has the family's countenance." "Shall we take a selfie, everyone?" "A selfie here with Felipe." "Wow, look at Marli's effort." "Spoiling the boy..." "We'll bring something to eat soon, okay?" "Sorry, it's just that today everyone's very nervous..." "Happy..." "What son of music are you into?" "What style?" "Felipe, Lipe, Lipe, is back home..." "Felipe, Lipe, Lipe, is back home..." "Come back, Felipe!" "Come back, Felipe!" " Felipe, sing a song now." " Sing, Felipe!" " Come on, Felipe!" " Don't you have a rock band?" "You have a band, man." "He's got a band." "People wanna see you sing, get to know you, come on..." "Do you think this bottle is correctly labeled?" "Can you tell exactly what substance we have here just with the information on the label?" "No?" "Because with the same molecular formula we can have different substances." "At least two different substances here." "We can have an alcohol, so the alcohol ends in OL, right?" "Ethanol." "And besides an alcohol, we may have an ether." "Remember that ether is when the oxygen atom is between carbon atoms." "And the name of this ether is methoxyethane." "Then you say "oh, so with the same molecular formula" "I get different structural formulae?"" "And just by looking at the flat representation of these substances you can differentiate one from the other." "You don't have to make a spacial projection and imagine it." " Felipe?" " What?" "(Ma)' I Say goodnight?" "Come in." "What are you doing?" " Looking for my shoes." " Why?" "Felipe, it's late." "Are you going out now?" "Are you?" "Why the backpack, son?" "I'm going to visit..." "You're going what?" "Felipe..." "I'm visiting my mom." "Let's talk." "Sit down, son." "Please." "I respect your feelings." "But give me some more time." "Give us some more time." "It'll be very tough for me if you leave now." " I'm sorry." " Felipe..." "Felipe, please." "Son..." "Felipe, please!" "I won't let you go!" "Hello?" "Tadeu..." "Look..." "This one's beautiful, I'd wear it myself." " Let me see." " Look, checked." "Oh, you'll look amazing." "Look at me." "These jeans are my size." "Three." "Leave them here." "What a strong color, son." " Cool." "I like it." " For the rock band?" "No, for everyday." "I think it's good for the band." "Give it to me." " Choose something a bit more..." " Let him take one." " Perhaps one more shin?" " These are cool." " Oh, you want shoes, sure." " What's your size?" "42." "But I have shoes, no need..." "Excuse me..." "Look, look..." "Do you have these in size 42?" "I'll check." "He said he didn't like polo shins, then he chose a beautiful black one." "Have you tried the black polo shin yet?" "It's a bit large." "There's another one here." "It has some details but the size might be good." "See if it fits you better." "If the size is good we can change it." "I'd love him to try on the shins, we could buy him a suit later today." " A blazer." " Blazer?" "Let him buy two shins, a blazer, he'll look smart." "We'll take it in steps." "Let us see when you're ready." "We're curious here." "We're curious here." "What do you think?" "I like the color." "How about the back?" "I think I'm gonna take this." "Felipe, OK." "OK, dude." "Take it off and put on the ones we chose." " I want this one." " Matheus..." " I want this dress." " Son..." "I know you want to attack us, it's understandable." " We'll get that for carnival, OK?" " Calm down, Matheus." "Now, get changed at once." " Easy, easy." "Matheus." " Go in and take it off, boy!" "We're in the shop!" "I want this dress!" "Matheus, control yourself." "You have to control yourself." "Felipe..." "I want this dress, I'm taking it." "Felipe..." "Take the dress off now or I'll go for your neck." "Shall we try the shins on, son." "Look." "I'm gonna give you a fat lip." "Get in and take it off now." "Calm down, Matheus." "Right, let's try on the shins." "Just approach her before..." " Why are you so quiet there?" " No, nothing..." "Are you staring at Julia?" "I'll get something to eat." "I'll go with you." "Go talk to her." " You mean it?" " Go, damn it." "She's alone, it's your chance." "It's now or never." "Seriously." " Hi." " Hi." " What's up?" " Not much." "I'm going there with my friends, OK?" "Why?" "I don't want them to see us together." "But..." "Why not?" "They'll mock me." " Hi." " Hi." "What's up?" "Not much." "Listen, I'm going there with my friends." "Why?" "I don't want them to see us together." "Why not?" "They'll mock me." " Alex." " What?" "Come here." "What is it, Le?" "Is Joca into anyone?" "Joca?" "I don't know, why?" "In fact I think he's dating Julia Verdiglione." "Oh." "What about you?" "Are you into anyone?" "No." "And you?" "That was so so." " My turn?" " Yes." "Look how it's done." "Throw it properly." "No, no." "Come back." "Go on, Pierre, throw it properly." "Pierre, go back, go back." "Throw it properly." "Throw it properly, boy." "I'm no good at bowling." "Don't like football, not good at bowling, don't like man's clothes, I bought you the dress." " Felipe, please..." " What else?" "What else?" "What else?" "I have to be good at bowling, is that it?" "What else do you want?" "Matheus, please." "What else do you want, man?" "You want me to like bowling, to like football, to like dressing like a man." "To be something I'm not?" " A bit of affection, a bit..." " Stop it." "You put the dress on, I brought you here dressed like a woman." "Shall we continue?" "Continue what?" "Doing everything this guy wants?" "What's the limit not to lose you?" "What else do you want?" "Say it!" "We can't say no to you." "If we say "no" we might lose you at any time." "Lose you again, and again, and again." "All possible ways." "How many ways do you want us to lose you?" "All I'm asking is that you accept me like this." "I accept what you are..." "I like to dress like this, I don't like bowling, I don't like football." "It's difficult to understand how to live with you." "How to love you, how to take care of you..." "That's not true." "Enough Matheus, enough." " Please, son..." " Stop it!" "I'm always doing something for you not to leave again." "Always having to accept something so you don't leave again." "I have a limit." "Enough Matheus, please." "What next?" "Soon he'll be on high heels at grandma's house." "What's wrong with high heels?" "It'sjust clothes!" "Don't speak back, please." "Stop touching me!" "Enough, look, please." "Stop it!" "Did you push your mother?" "Don't you ever push your mother!" "Don't push me, damn it!" " You don't push your mother!" " Don't touch me!" "Let go of me!" "Get the fuck off!" "Do you think I chose to be here?" "Let go of me, Gloria!" "Do you think I chose to be stolen twice?" "Twice!" "I was stolen in the fucking maternity and I was stolen by you!" "You stole my life!" "Son..." "Son, please..." "Don't call me son!" "You're not my mother!" "Felipe..." "What?" "Can I come in?" "What are you doing?" "I'm looking for my sister on the internet."
