Can I have this photo?

Katty.

You're...

a Mardovich...

Katty Mardovich!

Bye daddy.

Mom told you not to

smoke in her room.

What's it to you?

Where did you get the money?

Look...

jump like this.

Over here, come and dance.

I've got a present for you.

The Little Prince,

I haven't heard of it...

I wrote something... a dedication...

I'm giving you this book full of words...

which is another way to fly...

Good luck Katty.

And I signed it,

Chemo 2001.

The cake... the cake.

Hey everyone... the cake's arrived.

Mom I told you...

dad promised he'd come.

Something must have

happened, let's start.

No, we'll wait.

That's right... the cake...

wise up, he's not coming.

He's never been there for you.

Let's celebrate without him.

And a one, and a two...

See, I told you so...

...Good evening...

Hello mam, we have a

few questions to ask you.

- You're having a party?

- Yes, my girl's birthday

- And how old is she?

Fifteen...

Fifteen...

Looks like a lot of people.

We're looking for a so

called Radomir...

There have been a lot of

robberies around here.

Kids, it's time to go;

I'm sorry.

Tomorrow I'll bring you some cake.

You two, go to your rooms.

- But mom.

- Let's go Kid.

Happy birthday, Katty.

What's over there?

Just mice, that's all...

Take a look if you want.

And your dad didn't

bring you a present?

Far as I know, no...

How long since you last

saw your daddy?

What did you say?

What you heard,

that's my business.

Smart ass little girl...

Why don't you go,

this is my room.

So you like the cake?

Just watch it.

Great birthday I had...

Good morning children!

Morning miss.

Whose late, Katty hurry up.

Come on...

I get the wallet.

And the lighter,

...the lighter's mine, quick.

Hello Katty.

- Did you see the handbag.

- What's going on?

...repeat.

Or rather... be happy.

Young people...

Something serious has

happened this morning.

Someone stole Miss Lavalle's handbag.

Whoever did it stand up...

So no one did.

Katty, come with me.

Let's go

thank you miss.

Two girls saw you with

the handbag in the toilet.

Bring them if you want;

I told you it wasn't me.

If you took the purse just

give it back...

We only want to help you.

Watch where you're heading.

We have discussed your family

problems before.

Sit down Katty.

It wasn't you, was it?

You don't believe me,

sh*t you're all the same.

F***ing a**holes!

I'm not going back there again!

Don't take it like that,

it's not so serious.

Hey, but one thing.

Don't forget your promise.

Hey... don't go crazy,

it's not so serious.

So how long do you think

to carry on defending him?

A delinquent...

And all he's ever done is cause trouble.

He's my kid's father

...and I don't like it when

people mess him up.

What can I say?

If only you'd listen.

More than once I've

listened to you...

You know very well...

better not confuse things.

He's still my husband

for as long as he's alive.

So pretty when you're angry

Good afternoon.

You're Mrs Mardovich?

Can you come with us please?

Follow me please.

Radomir Mardovich Pe'96a...

It was a terrible shoot out.

This way please.

Katty, stop it!

That isn't Radomir.

Are you sure?

Of course.

Totally?

That's what I told you.

Maybe they changed the tag.

They told me on the right...

and that's where I put it.

Yeah, on the right!

Things are getting too loose around here.

And this one?

It's Tulio mom.

Shut up!

You know the deceased?

He was wearing your husband's clothes.

I had nothing to do with it.

You must tell the truth.

You knew Tulio GonzalezArancibia.

There was a robbery.

You've lied to us mam',

I'll have to file charges against you.

And be grateful you're

with your daughter,

...or else you'd be arrested.

You always have to open

that big mouth of yours.

How often have I told you

to shut up you stupid idiot!

The mess you've got us in!

But it was Tulio!

What's it to you?

You and your dad, I'm sick of both of you.

No excuse this time.

He's not setting foot in my house

ever again!

Open your eyes.

Smile.

Turn around.

You look like a good girl.

Ask Gloria for credit on

some milk and oil...

...before the bus arrives, quickly...

Hey mom!

Nelson's car's over there.

Don't get like that mom.

Don't cry.

Come on mommy, I'll take you home...

Get in sis', I'll take you.

Is that right, Nelson?

What's up sis'?

Where's Danilo

He went out.

I feel nauseous.

Call our neighbor Juana.

Hello... Juanita.

Who is it?

What's up?

What's wrong Mercedes?

For god's sake!

I've got such a headache,

I can't see clearly.

These flu bugs today,

they're not like before.

My sister got it hard;

spent two days as twisted as a hen.

I can't feel my toes...

And your brother,

when does he arrive?

Don't know; we never know.

We can't do anything now

...but early tomorrow

I'll take you to the clinic.

For now... here's some pain killers...

Bye Mercedes, please brighten up.

...sleep with me, darling.

Mom, mom, wake up.

Cometh the day when the

buried shall hear his voice.

The good will resurrect

and return to life.

Those of evil deeds

will suffer damnation.

My brother's,

don't be sad.

Can I stay with you?

I can't sleep.

What shall we do?

Dad isn't coming back, is he?

Just have to get by...

like everyone else.

We'll be all right.

It's all business...

and what do politicians do -

make more money...

All in it for themselves...

Well it's the 15th and your credit's

at its limits.

Katty,

Clean that quickly

so it's nice and clean...

What are you doing?

It's that I've found a job

...along with Nelson.

But not around here

so I need to make a move.

You're leaving me alone?

No way, just a few weeks.

And who knows if...

making love...

all night long...

I end up singing in the band.

You're going... and never coming back.

I told you no...

Let's go.

Coming...

Up to Arica and around

then back, just one week.

Why don't you lend us some

cash for the girl?

This is just an advance.

Don't get used to it.

I don't want that money

A little to keep you going.

Making love...

It'll all be fine, ciao

She's not in...

I'm not afraid of anything,

...neither gypsies

...or night

I'm not afraid of anything

Dad is it you?

...did you read the book?

I've got another one,

Sisiphus.

About a man who has to carry

a stone over a peak.

Well, it's impossible...

but he's condemned to do it

over and over again.

It's really good.

Must be really crazy

living all alone.

Aren't you afraid?

At the beginning, but you learn

to live with fear.

And that painting?

They say it's the devil.

When I was a kid I used to have

a copy just like it.

I came about the rabbits.

You did invite me...

I went yesterday.

But I've got an idea.

Take your shirt off.

What?

I said, take your shirt off.

Fine.

Are you afraid?

No,

I'm not afraid.

And now your pants.

What for?

What do you think?

Why are you laughing;

do I look funny?

No

you look lovely.

Lie down.

Do you like me?
