Biutiful
Is it real?
Yes.
At least that's what my father
told my mother.
Why do you have it?
Your grandfather gave it to your grandmother
before he left Spain.
She was pregnant and expecting me--
and she never saw him again.
It's beautiful.
I never imagined
I would touch a real diamond.
Can I try it on?
- Yes.
It's yours now, sweetie.
- Really?
I don't know. Mom always
wore it on this finger.
She said it wasn't real.
Your mother never heard the sound.
What sound?
The sound of the ocean.
When I was little--
one radio station
played the sounds of the sea.
Giant waves.
The sounds scared me.
Why were you scared?
The bottom of the sea scared me.
All the creatures that
live there.
Dad?
Dad...
Did you know that when an owl dies...
it spits out a fur ball?
You shouldn't go with the ponytail.
It makes you look like a fox.
It scares away the owls.
I saw that movie.
Don't you believe me?
Just water. Saltwater.
Do you know what it sounded like?
And the wind?
And the two together?
What's over there?
When did the symptoms start?
I don't know.
A couple of months ago.
You can get dressed.
Couldn't you have come sooner?
It did not hurt as much before.
The nurse will be by
to take some blood samples.
Good morning.
Aren't you going take it?
Open and close your fist.
Is that a new syringe?
- Yes.
Is it new?
- Yes, don't worry. It's new.
Damn!
- Sorry.
Have you done this before?
- Your veins are just hard to find.
Be careful.
- Sorry.
Open and close your fist.
Ouch! Damn!
Give me the syringe.
- Sorry, but...
Please
give me a syringe.
Where did you learn that?
Did you fast for eight hours?
-What do you mean by fast?
Didn't they say that?
-No. They're f***ing lying...
Don't stab me again.
Let's go outside now.
Thank you.
Your eyelids are still
your heart as well.
Your eyelids are still
your heart just...
Why don't you leave?
What's keeping you here?
Did they tell you about the accident?
- Did you hear anything?
I only heard Luis.
The boy furthest away...
- Luis?
Luis is doing well.
I helped him on his way.
He told me that he repented
and asked for forgiveness...
for stealing a watch.
What are you talking about?
You are a disgrace. You fool.
You come here to talk nonsense.
My son was not a thief.
Now, let me explain. I came here because ...
Go away! Luis, tell him to go.
Show a little respect for our son.
Hai was asking for you.
Tell him I'll drop by tomorrow.
Hello.
Dad, I tried to call you.
- Sorry, I'm a bit late. Let's go.
Take your bag. Ready?
Thanks, Lili.
Tomorrow at five o'clock?
Say goodbye to Lili.
And Li.
-Bye.
Fish is gross.
We always eat the same thing.
What would you prefer?
A burger with fries...
and a chocolate milkshake.
With pleasure.
And the lady?
Fried eggs with sausages--
and a potato frittata
with cream and cinnamon.
Burger.
And look at all the fries.
French fries here,
there, and everywhere.
And a large chocolate milkshake.
What would you like, madam?
Fried egg.
- Fried egg...
With sausages.
- Sausages...
And a potato frittata.
Frittata...
- With cream and cinnamon.
As ordered.
What did you have for lunch today?
- Rice and chicken.
Dad, did you know...
that if an space suit
gets a hole, it explodes?
Tomorrow, I'll ask Lili
to make something else for you.
It isn't Lili who cooks.
- So I'll tell Jung.
It's because of gravity.
Stop kicking the table, Mateo.
And don't cram all that food
in your mouth.
I've told you a thousand times.
A thousand times.
Don't make a mess.
Put it in your mouth again.
Food in the mouth, Mateo.
Come on.
Food in the mouth, right now!
More milk?
- No.
Stop it!
Leave the table
and go into your room.
I told you to go to your room,
not to rinse off your plate.
What's wrong?
I peed my pants.
I'll wash them tomorrow, Dad.
Yes?
Just a moment.
Can you turn it down a bit?
Turn down the music and stop singing.
Yes, I'm here.
Sorry about that.
Yes, the cemetery called again.
No, they're going to build a mall.
Right on top of Dad.
They have offered me money.
Good money.
They handle the coffin and everything.
It's a good deal.
There's no way to prevent it, anyway.
We should definitely have Dad cremated.
Okay, let's do it.
Yeah, okay. I'll call you.
Okay, next week.
Take care.
See you.
Who's being cremated?
- No one.
Don't lie.
I'll give you a Thai massage.
Who?
If you don't tell me...
- My father!
He's going to be cremated.
Which of you takes after him the most?
- I don't know.
I don't remember what he looked like.
Give me a kiss.
I want to go.
I'm gonna go now.
Stop, I'm leaving.
What the hell are you doing?
A**hole.
Crazy.
Where are the others?
I met Chinaza on the way here.
Where?
- In El Fondo.
I sent the idiot away.
Where are Cheikh and Mamadou?
Keep them under control, or we're screwed!
I told you, they can't sell here.
It's off limits.
Understood?
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Elsewhere, no one buys.
I also hear
you've started selling drugs.
Pack up, guys. They're coming.
Watch out for cops.
Run!
I have something to show you.
At home with me.
in your home? Jeez...
It's stuck.
Won't open.
Thank you, Ige.
It's no use lowering the price
if nobody wants them.
Are they all like that?
Most of them.
It's been a lousy month.
You have to talk to the Chinese.
Maybe I can get umbrellas.
Screw that!
It never rains here.
Yes, it rains.
Can you sleep, with the baby?
- No none can.
Keep it down, will you. I have a guest.
Who made this?
Was it you?
Who made this sh*t? Would you
even use such a sh*t bag?
We make no money faking these goods.
It's now or never.
at 1300 euros each...
That's a lot of money.
I have to think about it first.
- Why? We think too much.
We'll lose the contract with Mendoza.
What about the workers? Should they
keep on making this sh*t?
I don't know what you are saying,
but you have to do something quickly.
I can't continue selling crap.
The idiot must be good for something.
- That idiot has done far more than you.
For your friend in the police.
Have you talked to Mendoza?
Yes. My brother has a contact at
a building site in Badalona.
They need lots of workers.
How much is this?
How much?
It's no laughing matter, Hai.
How much is it?
What's wrong with you? It's a
sensitive issue, and I have a family.
We aren't at home in China.
Thanks, I know.
Why did you come here then?
Because I love you.
You're a strong man.
An important man.
Do you love me?
Say you love me.
I know you love me.
How many times have I told you.
Am I speaking Chinese?
I have explained it to them ...
- They can't sell here, Uxbal.
You'd better f***ing learn
to speak African.
You should also talk to your people
and get them to calm down.
That's what I pay you for.
Listen, Uxbal. We've known each other
But next time you screw up you
you're done.
Clear?
