So thank you, Carlos.

I'm leaving now.

- What?

- Do not worry.

Wait a minute here.

- Where are you going?

- Agree July.

- Why?

- To hear the noise.

- What noise?

- How they sound? By God!

July?

July?

- July?

- What is it?

Wake up.

July?

- What is it?

- Do you hear the noise?

- What noise?

- That noise.

Wake up.

Come here.

Or I will think I'm crazy.

- You're crazy.

- Look out the window.

- I hear nothing.

- It has to be quiet.

I hear nothing.

- July...

- What?

And if it's the girl?

Cristian, do you believe

everything you hear.

Leave me alone.

DAY 3

- Mother...

- Yes?

- Where is Daddy?

- In the office.

- In Madrid?

- Yes

I thought the office was on vacation.

Yes, but they needed

to do something.

- I think it will tomorrow.

- Right.

The key to the basement.

We go to the basement.

Hurry.

Wait. It is this key.

- Mom will see us.

- Wait.

It's very hard.

Ready.

My goodness! The Virgin.

Now...

I do not believe this place.

It's scary.

Push.

Drugs. It has light here.

Good.

What we have here?

A telephone. And what is that?

A dog bone.

Legal.

My old skateboard.

- It was his?

- Yes

- Be careful, do not go...

- I will not.

See a TV.

We can watch later.

- What is it?

- Bizarre.

- This is your baby?

- No.

It gives me chills.

Mom as a child,

had these dolls.

Terrifying.

What is this?

I do not know, but it's scary.

A sofa.

- Look!

- What?

A picture of us.

Where was it taken?

It's cool.

We should keep it.

- What is it?

- A lot of mirrors.

I think it does not break.

Let's see what's in these boxes.

Check this out.

- Let me see. What is this?

- It's Mom.

"When my light... "

Do not read, it's boring.

What is this?

- Has movies there.

- Movies?

Want to see? Put the light.

It is pretty old, huh?

Bruce Lee

Separate this.

This is amazing, no?

Let's see if the Tv works.

Gross! This stinks.

Drugs.

Got it?

No.

I put out after

to see if it works.

I think we just need the cable.

Stay away.

See, a VCR. Incredible.

Let's find the cable TV.

This is broken.

Incredible!

- Did you hear that?

- Yes

- It was on TV?

- No, up there.

Mother?

Jose has broken glass.

Stay away.

No, Cristian, do not want to go.

So why did you

bring the camera?

Because you wanted it.

Stay here if you want,

but I go to the maze.

Do not have to shoot...

Keep it down or you'll wake her.

I'll take the camera.

Do what you want.

- July, wait.

- What?

Joseph, do not follow us.

Why not play with Robin?

You heard me. Go.

This kid sucks.

- What does he want?

- Want to come with us.

Wait. Cristian...

- Today we're together.

- Yes

What are you doing?

Leaving marks

not to get ourselves lost.

Care.

What are you doing?

- I broke.

- What? What?

- I broke the camera.

- Broke? What did you do?

- Just kidding.

- Dirty Little Secret.

Why not tie it and let it films?

I shoot the trees?

How so? I shoot everything

and you do not shoot anything?

As the bald monk.

In the end, we had nothing.

That monk?

And the battery is low.

What? I have 400 batteries.

Why don't you shoot,

the trees you are so fond of?

- Okay, I'll shoot.

- Then go.

Then will not say,

"Cristian... ".

Wait, wait. See.

Check this out.

Want to get there?

If we do not go here

what do we do? It's pretty cool.

- I'll go first.

- You can go.

Very well.

I hold the branches for you.

Very cool.

This way.

Wow! See.

It seems a well. It is a well.

That too! It's super old.

Let's look.

Wow! See.

Maybe it's the pit of Melinda.

That's cool!

Hold the camera a bit.

Let's try something.

Melinda!

Melinda... Melinda...

- Melinda, no!

- Cristian! Stop!

Why does you always plays the fool?

You're an idiot.

This does not. My glasses.

- Well done.

- Drugs.

Damn.

Do not leave the camera on the floor.

Pass.

Where are the marks

you left?

If you don't see the mark

do not pass through there.

See here. What is this?

- A mark.

- And now?

Let's go there.

You think you know everything.

Maybe the girl appears.

You got us lost on purpose

just to see the girl?

Quiet. See.

- See?

- Yes

- What is it?

- I don't know. It seems to be one person.

- Could be Mom.

- No, not Mom.

Damn! Then who is it?

I do not know.

What do we do?

What?

Look at the outlet. See that?

That's it. I think it's a person

with their back to us.

Look again.

It is not a person.

It seems to be shrinking

like a ball.

I do not know.

- I do not know.

- Right. But...

Let's see if there's something more.

What are you doing now?

I connected the camera cable

the laptop.

I shoot the entire evening to see

what makes this noise.

In the forest animals may

make that noise.

No matter.

I know who does this.

2 APRIL 2010

DAY 4

- Robin!

- Robin!

Robin!

Did you see him there?

No, not here.

I see there.

Joseph? Jose, come here.

But mother, he's lost.

Do not worry.

Let's go and wait there.

Soon he returns. Come on.

Joseph

Joseph, do not worry.

Robin knows the way back.

Mother, let's go get it.

No, I said no.

You can get lost.

We went to the woods yesterday.

Mother, it is very easy.

It will be super fast.

I said no.

Robin! Robin!

- Robin!

- Robin!

Damn!

Robin! Robin!

- Robin!

- Robin!

Damn dog!

Where's he been?

This is not normal.

He should have barked.

Beware of the branch.

This is very strange.

Perhaps he

chased an animal.

Yes, but he can not

have gone too far.

This is not so great.

You're right.

I see no marks here.

Do you think something happened?

Maybe. I do not know.

- July?

- What?

See this.

But...

What?

- Okay.

- My God!

Wait here.

My God, no.

Damn!

Damn!

I don't believe it.

My God! My God!

I'll check.

No. Damn!

It's Robin?

Yes, it's Robin.

Damn!

Damn!

I do not believe.

I do not believe.

Forget it.

We can not leave him there.

What do you do?

We need to bury him.

How will you get down the shaft?

I do not know.

Come on.

Give me the bag.

I wonder who killed him?

I do not know.

I think there was a mark here.

See, there it is.

- Where?

- There.

What we say to them?

I do not know,

but do not tell Joseph

Have you seen Robin?

No, but tomorrow we

will look for him again.

Joseph, do not worry.

What happened here?

It has nothing recorded.

It's nothing.

- Do not move the cable, move?

- No.

I do not understand.

It cut before.

- And you did not move this cable?

- No.

It unplugged itself?

So?

- Yes, I did.

- Idiot! And now?

We have nothing recorded

of the dog.

Why move the cable?

What do you care if I film?

Damn! You're silly.

Boba.

Awake?

Let's tell Mom?

Not now, she will be as

hysterical as we are.

Sorry I cut

off the camera.

No matter now.

What happened to the dog?

I do not know.

I do not know.

Joseph!

Joseph!

Joseph!

Joseph!

Joseph!

- Joseph?

- What happened, Mom?

- Have you seen Joseph?

- No. Why?

I looked everywhere,

but he isn't here.

You think he's out there?

Please help me find him!
