"Of those, approximately 28 million children... live in conditions different from those... regulated by the Children's International Rights." "Also, there are some 3 million children... who are homeless... who don't have a family structure." "Their situation is even more chaotic... as they can only be arrested for any crime after they're 18... allowing adults to attract these children... so that they can commit any kind of crime... and not be punished." "They will be sent for a couple of months to a reform school... and will be released, due mainly to lack of vacancies." "In this neighborhood... live the families of workers of large industries." "The parents go to work, leaving their children at home... and usually the older daughter cares take of the others... or some neighbor gets paid to do that."

"It's something else." "On Sunday your relatives could bring me some..." "Grass?" "What else?" "Soap?" "Don't want much, do you?" "I don't want any trouble." "It's easy for you, isn't it, Pixote?" "Beats me!" "I know someone who could bring it." "But what's in it for me?" "No one will rape you." "Nor beat you up." "We'll make sure of that." "What more could you want?" "Ok."

"I will, son, but I'm sure he won't let you out." "And what for?" "So you can go back on the streets again?" "If anything happens to me in this hell hole, it'll be your fault." "What could happen?" "Pixote, if your Granpa turns up, will you talk to him?" "I sure hope he doesn't!" "Why?" "He pisses me off." "Come here, Roberto." "Fancy outfit!" "Nervous?" "Today's my big day." "See Fumaça's mother?" "Never misses a visit." "You'd think she likes it here..." "That's right." "Ugly old bat!" "Looks like she brought him something." "Maybe it's cuscuz." "That last one was great." "Your mother wants to see you." "Come on." "I don't feel like." "She's come all this way..." "I didn't ask her to." "Come on." "Sapato told me to get you." "Tell that cow I won't see her." "You won't talk to your mother?" "She makes sacrifices and that's the thanks she gets?" "Can I go?" "Yeah, go on." "When did he arrive?" "About two months ago, I guess." "They caught him purse-snatching... almost killed him." "Why didn't you ever come visit?" "You don't turn me on anymore." "Really?" "He's good." "He really sounds like Roberto Carlos." "When he gets out he'll he a star." "And what about you?" "Look, I'm in a jam." "So what?" "Can't you help me?" "What sort of jam?" "I need a few joints." "What do you mean by "joints"?" "Just a few..." "I won't get you anything." "Don't make trouble." "You watch out for yourself, boy!" "Why can't you be like him?" "I can't sing." "You'll have to get me out of here!" "Just hang on a bit longer, Pixote." "It's even worse out there." "Now, let's watch the singer." "Since you won't get me the stuff, how about getting my mother?" "If you find her before I do, let me know." "Keep still." "Any other questions?" "Why did you leave home?" "Granny started nagging', so I left." "Look, I'm only trying to help you." "But you have to trust me." "Tell me everything." "If I do you'll turn me over to the cops." "I'm not a cop." "I'm a doctor." "Promise you will tell the judge!" "I told you I want you with the others." "I forgot." "What happened?" "He's moving." "I haven't assessed his character yet." "Not my problem." "Let's go." "I still haven't told her everything." "If she don't know, how will the judge let me out?" "Go, Pixote." "You can tell it to the other lady there." "Everything you said is held confidential." "Pixote, obey Mr. Sapato." "Almir, I don't want any trouble." "I want those kids back in 3 days." "Take is easy." "I always bring them back." "Sure, but some of your colleagues haven't." "And I take the rap." "Don't panic." "If anyone asks... they're on vacation." "Let's go." "I don't know." "Could be any one of them." "I only remember he was blond." "They all look the same." "How can I be sure?" "You say he looked like that blond one?" "He's already committed one homicide." "Could be, but I only saw him for a second." "I can't say for sure." "It's him alright." "He's wild." "That's what you say, I can't be sure." "Let's go." "It won't bring father back." "I know it's painful, but it's part of our job." "What's your name, kid?" "Pixote." "Have you seen my son?" "You know him?" "Fumaça?" "Yes." "Do you know where he is?" "Is he sick?" "Has something happened to him?" "We're winning." "You, lady!" "They took away a bunch of guys." "And Fumaça hasn't shown up yet." "You'd do better to inquire further." "Better find yourself another son." "Cause that one's had it!" "The bodies of 2 boys of about 15 have been found." "The victims were riddled with bullet holes." "The authorities are going around... all the reform schools in the city." "The only clue is the drill uniforms they were wearing." "Let's go!" "Quick!" "Get dressed and out!" "We've got visitors." "Don't lie, or you're back here." "This is the dormitory wing." "We work miracles with our small budget." "That explains the conditions." "Are the children kept locked in?" "It's not like that anymore." "This is our chief supervisor." "He's dedicated to his boys." "Excuse the mess." "It's difficult to keep clean all day long." "And that boy?" "He's not studying?" "No, he's sick." "Infectious hepatitis." "Son, how are you getting along here?" "The doctor comes twice a week." "Did the mother see the boy in the infirmary, or not?" "She said she was here Sunday." "They told the boy had run away." "She's crazy." "I took her to the infirmary myself." "She was shocked, naturally." "Considering the state he was in." "She knew the police had been here and had taken the boy away." "But the police never come here." "When boys fight, they're worse than adults." "Could one boy attack another with such violence?" "Only if he was King Kong." "When he's better you can talk to him." "We'd like the Press to spend some time here." "To acknowledge the valuable work we're doing." "Pixote!" "You're here!" "Where's Fumaça?" "They took us away somewhere and worked him over." "Why?" "They said he'd killed that old man." "His mother was here on Sunday, she made a fuss." "She blew up when she found out they'd taken Fumaça away." "She'd tell it to the papers." "It's gonna get rough." "So, tell us everything." "Almir, that son of a bitch... drove off with some of the kids." "He made Carlinhos and Mirandinha get out and finished them off." "And then?" "He took us back." "And stuck us in solitary." "We were there for a long time." "Sapato came and got me out and put me in fatigues." "I gotta get out of here." "Me too." "I saved a bit of glue for you." "Where?" "Here." "Go for it." "Get rid of the can." "Right." "Thanks." "Let's split." "The kid doesn't look too good." "If doesn't eat, he'll "croak"..." "Isn't that the way they say it?" "He's dead, internal hemorrhage." "As I suspected." "How could something like this happen?" "He was turned over to me all beaten up." "I did what I could." "Don't try to blame me!" "You bastard!" "This will cost you your job, I promise!" "Why did you turn the hid over?" "The cops came and took him." "Yell at them, not at me." "Why did you accept the boy in that state?" "I wasn't on duty." "He was here when I came..." "Who took him in then?" "What could I do?" "Nothing!" "Nothing!" "Go fuck yourselves!" "The press'll come down on us like a ton of bricks!" "God, that's all I need!" "Any others like that?" "What's that kid doing in here, next to this one?" "He's out of it." "He won't remember anything." "I'll not be blamed." "I'll put the blame on you." "Pixote, make your own bed." "Everybody's go to pull together." "Come on, get dressed." "The doctor says you can go." "Snap to it." "Where's Fumaça?" "He was in that bed." "Who?" "Fumaça." "That's nonsense, kid." "I don't know any Fumaça." "Drink this." "...drawn up by President Figueiredo... and on the bond of friendship which unites..." "Brazil and Uruguay." "Violence on the streets of São Paulo increases daily." "At dawn, the body of L.C.B. was found." "He had been missing for two weeks." "The Director of the Institute explained to our reporters:" "Fights are frequent between the children... mostly due to their social background." "Concerning the boy who was found dead..." "I have been informed... that he had been brutally beaten up... by one of his colleagues... and that the attacker has been identified." "His assailant, a minor, has a police record... of armed robbery, assault and one homicide." "A typical juvenile delinquent." "I don't know." "I really don't know." "I went and he wasn't there." "Then they told me had run away." "They told me he was in the infirmary." "Then a boy told me that was a lie." "That the police had got him." "I don't know who's to blame." "I just want my son." "I think this institution's pretty mysterious." "The boy's mother saw it." "And I did see the boy in a terrible state." "He couldn't have taken a step." "How could he have run away?" "It's enough." "Everyone get to bed." "Son of a bitch!" "You want to set me up?" "But it won't be like that." "You scum, you think you can get rid of me." "But you're wrong, you hear?" "That's quite enough for today!" "Sapato, you son of a bitch, I want to talk to you." "Everyone to the dormitory." "Dinner is over!" "Everyone stay put!" "Shit down, motherfucker!" "Come on!" "I'm gonna bust your guts." "I'll cut you in pieces." "Sapato, you swine, get your ass here!" "What's up?" "What's the problem?" "I didn't hurt Fumaça." "He was my friend." "It was you and your gang of friends." "You're stoned!" "Stoned!" "?" "You want my skin!" "Don't get carried away." "Even if you had done it, nothing would happen to you." "You'll be 18 soon and everything will be fine." "No one will bother you." "You don't even exist." "I didn't mention your name." "I wasn't even on duty yesterday." "Keep cool and everything'll work out." "Now everybody get to bed." "Why the rush?" "Let go!" "You wanna whack me!" "What's going on?" "Who's there?" "What have they done to you?" "They got me, Lilica." "They finished me off." "They took me to the box." "They let me have it..." "Really worked me over." "Tell me." "Are you hurt?" "Where did they beat you?" "Everywhere..." "Lilica." "They beat me with an ax handle." "Help me, Lilica." "I will." "I'll help you." "I promise no one'll lay a hand on you again." "No one'll harm you." "He's dying." "No, he's not!" "You're my man." "You're my life." "You're everything." "I promise I'll always stay by your side." "He's dying!" "He's not dying, you fuck!" "You're not dying." "You're gonna stay with me." "I love you." "I do." "You'll pay for this, you fucking swines!" "I'll kill all of you!" "I may be the next one." "Let's split, Dito." "Open this door!" "Let's break up this shit hole." "They want to kill me." "I may be the next!" "Another one, Mario, I am really worried." "What do you mean?" "Was it really a kids' fight?" "What was the dead kid up to?" "He was a deviate." "Liked fags." "If there's no suspect, find one." "This'll blew the whole shit wide open..." "This is the second death in less than two weeks." "You can ask Almir about the first one." "You know... why this country won't evolve?" "Because it's full of idiots!" "The judge has just arrived." "Well, let's get it over with." "Tonight a boy was killed." "Tell me everything you know." "As if you were telling it to your father." "I am here to help you." "Why all the destruction?" "Isn't this your home?" "A home we all ought to care." "What's all this fighting about?" "And killing each other?" "You're here to reintegrate into society... as useful citizens." "You're missing the chance of a lifetime." "Why?" "Can anyone tell me?" "Why?" "Can you?" "I'll only leave here until I know the truth." "Only God can give or take away life." "You may leave." "They're all blind, deaf and dumb." "Terrible!" "They're covering up." "Because they all feel guilty." "You're almost 18, aren't you?" "Were you a friend of the victim?" "I knew him." "Tell me about him." "I know nothing." "I don't have anything to say." "Would you like to talk in private?" "What?" "You can talk." "The judge will protect you." "What are you saying?" "Why did you do that?" "Did he betray you?" "Were you jealous?" "Go ahead." "Tell us." "Liar!" "You're setting me up!" "You started!" "Had to do with queers, right?" "He hit you and that's how it happened, right?" "You crook!" "You killed him, you fag!" "Enough!" "Get out!" "Leave!" "Get out!" "You can tell me, son." "Don't be afraid." "My God!" "That's the window!" "Freedom's outside." "Let's go!" "Go on... go on." "Come on." "Let's go!" "I'm staying." "It's worse out there for me." "Asshole." "Stop." "Thief!" "Help!" "They took my purse!" "That's my wallet!" "I love lying here in the sun." "When I'm with you, I feel so calm." "And you?" "What do you think?" "Picture us in Copacabana." "Beautiful beach..." "the sun shining..." "Take us there, Dito." "I promise you, Lilica..." "When we make the big time, we'll go, all four of us." "Great." "I want to ask you something." "Do you like me?" "Of course I do." "Then say it:" ""Lilica, I love you."" "Cut it out, Lilica." "Say it." "Don't screw around." "I certainly will!" "Long time no see!" "What a surprise!" "Pop in." "I thought you'd forgotten me!" "How could I forget you?" "Fine, wasn't it?" "You took your time!" "We've been here since 9." "Go on, Lilica." "The pipe of peace." "It's all yours, Dito." "No, I don't do grass." "Don't do grass?" "Don't do grass?" "You only took a small hit." "I don't care for non-smokers." "If you think you're just sitting there looking on..." "Get out!" "Get out!" "I just don't feel like it." "Don't feel like it, my ass!" "Pixote, show this asshole what it's all about." "Suck in, man." "Your car's really great, Cristal." "Thanks, Pixote." "It is mine and my friends'." "But only for my close friends." "Piss off!" "Do you think I'm your pussy?" "Leave the kid alone." "What's on your mind, girlie?" "What do you think this is?" "I'm sorry." "My ass!" "You ain't gonna watch anything." "You come here, drink my booze... mess all around, watch this shit..." "What do you think I am?" "A whore?" "You got it all wrong, Cristal." "Dito's just a kid." "He doesn't know about this sort of thing." "Give him a break." "A break, my ass!" "I'm wasting my time with these idiots." "Wanna know something?" "I won't make no deal." "So you can get out... now!" "I said, beat it!" "You can't do this." "Dito worked his butt off to get the dough." "That's not my problem." "It's yours!" "Do us this favor, Cristal." "No, I won't..." "Let me talk to him for a while." "You assholes." "There's some missing." "Where is it?" "As soon as I sell the snort, it'll be ok." "And where are you going to deal it?" "In Rio, I know the spots." "I'm gonna save you some time." "I don't do this for anyone, but, I like you." "When you get to Rio, go see my friend Debora." "A fine chick with a big clientele." "Take it to her because Rio's a pretty bad place." "If you can't find her, look for Raulzinho at the Cowboy Club." "You know the place, don't you?" "Yes, I do." "Get going then." "And don't forget." "You owe me five more grand." "It's a lot." "And no double-crossing." "If you mess things up, it'll cost double." "Double!" "This is your break." "Either you deal... or you'll get dealt." "Boy, I am hungry!" "Just pretend you're eating and you'll be ok." "Do you think we're on the wrong train?" "Never mind, man." "If we are, we'll get the right one." "We'll get there sooner or later." "When I get my share..." "I'm gonna get me a board." "I'm gonna slide like this..." "I'm not into that, Pixote." "I like seeing the bottom of things." "I spoke to the lady." "It's nearby." "Me and Lilica'll go." "You two stay here." "What's up?" "We came together!" "Why can't we go too?" "That's it." "I want to see the lady." "What if she's sexy?" "Ok, let's go." "Come on, Pixote." "It's good." "I'll take it." "How did you get here?" "By train." "What are you staring at?" "You think I'm pretty?" "Yes." "Cristal still alive?" "I thought he'd vanished." "Is this your first trip here?" "Yeah, the first." "That'll be 13,000." "Did she say she lived here?" "Where does she sleep?" "No telephone, no nothing." "That right, kid." "This is just for business." "Why?" "You don't trust me?" "No, it's not that." "Let's be friends." "I'll take you home." "I've got a son about your age and size." "Wouldn't you like to play with him?" "This is for food and the rest will come later." "No way!" "What?" "Don't you trust me?" "You've got my number." "It's plain like this..." "I take the stuff to my friend, he pays me, I pay you." "That's how it's always been." "Or do you think I walk around with all that money?" "Alright." "No, get the money." "I said yes!" "You're gonna get screwed." "She seems all right." "Shut the fuck up!" "Ok, you know best." "This is the way I work." "Either you want it or you don't." "I've got a lot of things to do." "How long would we have to wait?" "I'll be back an soon as I can." "Leave half the stuff, just in case." "If the man finds out you stole his short, you're screwed." "The water's great, Lilica." "Don't splash." "You look like a pet." "Didn't they teach you any manners at home?" "What home?" "The brothel?" "Watch your mouth." "My home was no brothel!" "Will you two quit fighting!" "Shouldn't Debora be back by now?" "Maybe we'll better go back." "Dito'll be pissed off." "We just got here." "Why do we have to go now?" "I want to know if Dito's got the dough." "I saw some great threads today." "When I get my share no motherfucker will mess with me." "I won't die like Big boy." "Stop bragging." "No one knows what's gonna happen." "When I get my share of the take..." "I'm gonna buy a nice new .38" "and know what I'm gonna do?" "This is a hold-up!" "I said get up, you bastard." "That's how I'll treat those idiots." "Everyone'll respect me." "Chico, the King of the Trigger." "You know who'll be the first?" "That cop who beat me up at the station." "And I didn't even know why he was hitting me." "But his day will come." "It sure will." "He'll pay for that." "Roberto should be here with us." "It would be great if he was here." "Only he couldn't go in the water." "His leg would rust and..." "I'll be 18 next month." "Getting old, eh Lilica?" "Then things will get rough." "I'll have to cool it." "If I'm caught I'll be beaten and locked up forever." "When I'm 18, I'll split." "I'll see if Roberto'll let me join his group." "For me, things will be the same." "They'll always be on my back." "They'll always find a way to screw me." ""Right, you damn faggot"." "What can a fag expect out of life?" "Nothing, Lilica." "I saw a boy running I saw time" "Playing around the life Of that boy" "I plunged my feet In the stream" "And I never took them off" "The sun still shines on the road And I never began" "I saw the woman preparing" "Another being" "Time has stopped so I could Stare to her belly" "I knew she'd double-cross us." "Shit!" "Fucking shit!" "How did we ever get into this?" "You got us into this." "Did I?" "Did I give her the stuff?" "Wake up, will you!" "Yes, you." "Aren't you the lady of bastard Cristal?" "What he's got to do with it?" "Everything." "All you wanted was to fuck with him." "You took us there just to show off." "Baby's jealous, isn't he?" "I didn't do it to show off." "I did it for you." "Listen..." "One thing I hate is people cheating me." "Business is business, it's yes or no!" "That depends." "Some business requires a little cheating." "Some business is all cheating." "Kiss off, Lilica!" "I never want to see your face again." "What's wrong with you?" "Now it's done." "Just go!" "Really want me to go, Dito?" "Just say it once more... and you won't see me again." "Go on, say it!" "Say it..." "Say it again." "Pixote, Chico, come here." "It's ok." "Raulzinho's waiting." "You'll take it" "Not me I wouldn't feel safe." "Why not send Pixote and Chico?" "If they catch them, they can say... they're begging." "I'll do it." "Here you go." "Ok." "Let's go." "Don't hand over the stuff without getting the cash." "You hear?" "No, I must go to São Paulo... on business." "I'll be back in two days." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "We called you up." "Cristal sent us." "Yes I know..." "No, no, it's just that..." "Come in..." "No, I'll be back soon." "Hang on a minute." "Let me see, come on!" "Put the shit over here." "No, it's a private matter." "I'll tell you later." "How much?" "8,000 cash." "Ok." "Hang on." "Why the hell did you give it to him?" "Didn't you hear what Lilica said?" "Shit, Pixote." "What could I do?" "He asked me!" "And you gave it to him!" "Hi!" "Everything ok?" "See who's there?" "That cow Debora..." "Let's call Dito." "No way." "We'll take care of this ourselves." "Come on." "What about the stuff?" "We'll get it later." "Come on." "Mrs. Debora... are you ok?" "What's up, boy?" "We came to get our money." "We waited all day." "I was held up in the traffic." "Glad you come..." "I've got it." "You wait outside and after the show I'll pay you." "No way." "We ain't gonna buy that." "We want it now, ok?" "Piss off!" "Leave or I'll call the police!" "Then your bag goes with us." "It's my handbag!" "Speak to me, Chico!" "Please, say something!" "You don't even know how to play!" "Play with only one." "This is Dito, this is Pixote." "All real nice people." "Hey, take a look... at that one over there." "What do you think?" "Not bad at all!" "She's a love machine, man." "1,000 a day, at least." "I'll hand her over to you because I'm going away." "It is a bargain." "Let's get to the point." "Turn it off." "We gotta talk." "Close your eyes." "You think I'm stupid?" "I was nice to you, wasn't I?" "Sure, but you know I've gotta go." "Only for a while." "They're ok." "Believe me." "And you said you'd agree." "What am I going to do with these kids?" "It's only for a while." "I'll be coming straight back." "Don't want to make trouble, do you, Sueli?" "Ok, Ok, forget it." "I just want to get some rest." "All set." "Hand over the cash." "Look." "Take it easy, brother!" "This gun's great." "Brand new." "You only need some bullets." "Another 1,000 and it's yours." "You'll need it." "I already got one." "Like it?" "Do you want it?" "Of course I do." "I'll take it for Pixote." "What are you peeking at?" "Are you hurt?" "Are you sick?" "Yes..." "I may be." "What are you staring at?" "Should I have kept the baby?" "What baby?" "This one, damn!" "What do you think that is?" "A steak?" "Didn't you mother tell you how you were born?" "Even looks like you." "Look at him." "Stop staring at me!" "Get out or I'll stick you with the same needle!" "Out!" "This god damned fever." "Won't it ever go away?" "There was blood in the bathroom." "I think she's hurt." "No, she's just having her period." "Didn't they ever tell you?" "It's women's sickness." "Quiet!" "I don't want any trouble here." "Why are you so quiet?" "Looks like a funeral." "I'm sorry but I'm not myself today." "Anyone want some?" "I'll just give it to Lilica." "You're of age now, right?" "Now I can see you better." "If you know how to do it, everything will be fine." "We'll split the money in half." "In half!" "Shut up, will you!" "You've got a deal!" "This could put you in jail." "Don't worry... we're minors." "There won't be any trouble." "Yeah, right." "You're safety itself." "Right?" "Spare me, kid." "The macho number doesn't add up with me." "The last one left me a souvenir in the bathroom." "You saw it, didn't you?" "What's your name again?" "Pixote." "Pretty name." "Don't be angry with me, Pixote." "I'm feeling a bit edgy today." "They told me you're nice people." "Pixote could be the man for me." "How about it, Pixote?" "We're here." "Isn't it nice?" "What a hole!" "I didn't expect this." "It's cheaper." "Anyway, for making love it's the company that counts." "What are you waiting for?" "I thought you couldn't wait." "Lean back." "Let me help you with your pants." "Shall I put some talc on it?" "Give me the whole number." "Are you in love?" "You're so juicy!" "You too!" "Never seen anything nicer than you." "I'm crazy about you too." "Ok, you motherfucker..." "Hand over the money!" "Take the money." "Please don't kill me, I have a family!" "See if this makes you come!" "Stinky oldie!" "Take everything but don't kill me." "Hey, pal, give me a coke!" "Make it two, please!" "What did you think of our performance?" "It was really great." "Give your meat if you don't want it." "Go on!" "Take it all." "You're like pigs!" "She pissed off?" "Why?" "They're a couple, aren't they?" "Lilica likes cocks... but Dito doesn't." "I know him." "I can assure you." "Now, I'll have a big chocolate ice-cream." "Just to top it off." "What about you?" "Cognac and marshmallow." "Enjoying it?" "Goo, huh?" "Well worth the money, eh?" "How much is a car like this?" "None of your business." "Pretty rich, aren't you?" "I want one..." "I want a car like this." "This car will be mine!" "This car will be mine!" "Easy now or I'll blow your brains out!" "Quiet!" "Or I'll cut your balls off." "Nice and quiet." "Go on, get in there." "I think he shit in his pants." "And the money?" "Better and better." "He beat me so hard I ended up in the hospital." "I told him: "shove your money up your ass"." "I'll have a house and a car, all my own." "Then I went to São Paulo." "On my own." "I worked in a nightclub." "It was really great!" "I felt like a queen." "I would dance all night." "Pixote, change this song." "Hey, I was enjoying that!" "Sueli told me to." "She's nice, huh?" ""She's nice, huh?" That's all I needed!" "Like it?" "Like it, Lilica?" "What you did there?" "I was a go-go girl." "I had a bikini like this." "All covered with glitter." "Smashing!" "Sort of heart-shaped." "I loved dancing." "I used to dance all night on a stool." "Like this." "Why did they throw you out?" "That's a long story, Dito." "Come!" "This car's much nicer than Cristal's." "Do you think the guy back there is hungry?" "Just leave me alone, Pixote." "What's the matter with you today?" "You're being so difficult." "Nothing's the matter." "I hate drunks!" "Look, she's drunk." "So what?" "Right?" "You're just being so stupid." "I just don't like it." "Give me some money and I'll go." "You silly faggot!" "Don't treat me like this." "I'm gonna split." "No one's leaving." "Come on!" "Don't you like it here?" "Something scared you?" "Don't spoil the party." "Ever give anyone a French kiss?" "God, she's vulgar!" "No one likes to dance?" "Did he have to do that to me?" "Prevent me from entering the nightclub." "With everyone looking." "Whenever I recall that, I can't control myself." "Wake up, Pixote." "Where's Lilica?" "She split." "Just as well." "She was pissing me off." "Don't talk about her like that." "She was nice." "Go after her, then." "You'd make a lovely couple." "She was fine." "It's you who's the son of a bitch!" "Look, if you don't like it, just get out!" "The fewer we are, the better." "You can't say that." "This isn't your house!" "Screw you, son of a bitch!" "Your mother is the bitch." "I saw her giving her ass to Sapato." "Son of a bitch!" "That goddamn whore!" "Think I didn't know?" "I told you she'd be number one in my book." "Keep your nose out of other people's business!" "Do your hear, you asshole?" "Let me go!" "What time is it?" "Up we go!" "Fucking gringo!" "Let's go and make babies." "Sit there, gringo." "Drink it!" "Wait a mom." "I'll soon finish you off." "Let me give you a kiss." "Don't push!" "Don't do that." "Let me kiss you there." "You scumbag!" "Keep still, creep." "Or you're dead!" "Get him, Dito, get him!" "I told you not to say my name!" "Look out, Dito!" "Shoot, Pixote, shoot!" "Let's go, Sueli." "Dito was a nice guy." "I know." "Don't talk about him." "Dito's dead." "I was getting to like him." "Lilica was right to fall for him." "My family lives in Minas." "We could go there." "Come with me." "Don't go away." "I can't live on my own." "What's the matter, Pixote?" "Come with me, will you?" "What's the matter?" "Don't be like that, Pixote." "Everything's ok." "Sueli's here." "It's all over." "Suck it, my baby." "Mummy's with you." "Let go, Pixote." "Let go!" "I don't like it!" "Take your dirty mouth off me!" "I'm not your mother!" "You hear?" "I'm not your mother!" "I don't want a child!" "I hate children!" "Go live your own life!" "We'll all get by on our own." "Scram!" "Go!"
