I am not going home now.

The crazy serbs are

having a party at home...

Listen... one drink.

One drink and that's it.

Eciuz me?

Yu know bar trece?

Are you Greek?

Yes! You 're Greek too!

Incredible.

Hi. Was the picture good?

I was just fooling around.

My film ran out.

- Where are you going?

- As if we knew...

They told us about a bar trece

but I can't find it. Do you know it?

Man, where is the bar trece?

You go that way, turn left at calle d'avignon

and then on your left hand side you...

Let's go together.

We were headed that way, anyway.

Prepare one tapa, let's go!

Whatever, doesn't matter...

Are we in extra-time?

Yes. They want another bottle.

Bloody tourists!

What the hell are they still talking about?

They are in love...

I also was in love talia.

But I didn't close the restaurants.

I was going to the park.

Or in the car...

Or a house if I was lucky,

and not here breaking balls.

Spoiled brats!

What I should do is open them

a can of mussels to mess up this great wine.

But they are such beasts that they wouldn't

be able to tell the difference...

Between a can of mussels

and the best sirloin I have here.

Talia, put out the cigarette please.

What a square you are.

Leave me alone will you?

We're here waiting for this clown

to decide to take her home...

So we could go to ours.

It doesn't even occur to them

that there are people here working.

Yes... but I don't think they are

thinking about that right now.

Well they should.

What they should do.

Is go directly to bed...

And leave all this bla bla aside.

If you want to chat take

her for a durum in the

rambla de raval that's

open all night long.

"And haw a biutiful boy

like yu no have girl?"

"So I kan be here now love!"

For f***'s sake man I

while they are playing with the food

as if it was baby cream.

How long have you been here?

What? You don't even

rem ember when I came?

Of course I rem ember.

In Barcelona.

Two years.

And why did you come?

I don't know.

I guess a wave brought me.

Another castaway, right?

From where did it bring you?

From something I'd rather forget.

And you?

A wave brought me as well.

Four years ago.

Are you about to say something romantic

and declare your love now?

Take it easy eh!

I came here because I wanted

to become the best.

All the great chefs are here.

Sergi, arola, roca... everyone!

Everyone is here.

Barcelona is the capital

of creative cooking...

And I had to be where

the shots were called.

So I packed my bags, lefi my Madrid.

And I came here.

And here I am chef right?

F***in' great!

Look where I work talia.

Just look.

I have to do everything

in a shitty restaurant.

I assure you sergi

would never work in a place like this.

But I do.

I don't have another option if I want

to keep the cash owing, because if not...

So now I can only wait for this jerk

to finish his show...

So I can go home

in the night bus...

Like a don-nobody.

This is not what's

really bothering you.

It stopped... yes. This is how the

weather is like in Barcelona.

They say, yesterday

people were swimming.

Yes, I heard that too. Listen, about

the square you asked me before...

It's called Plaza del tripi.

From the acid.

You're joking

normally it's called...

\/wde

because 'wilde used

to live here \/wde?

Oscar 'wilde in Barcelona?

Yes- I think he wrote some

of his books here in Spain.

These little alleys are so beautiful.

Anyway, it's a little bit

like plaka in Athens.

- What do you do?

- I am an actor.

Theatre?

Mainly theatre... nothing is

by chance mainly theatre...

Nothing is by chance

nor life or death

nothing is by chance

nor to love you or to hate you

nothing is by chance

nor to love you or to loose you

nothing is by chance

getting to meet you and not to know you

when the road blinds me...

I can only wait...

Because travelling is one thing...

And wandering about is another.

Steps both firm and strong...

Always forward, never back...

They'll bring you at my place...

Where I'm waiting to meet you.

In every place, I'm looking for you...

Whithout ever finding you...

On vacation?

Yes.

Athens, right?

Yes Athens.

And you?

I live here now. Patroklos

came today for a small visit.

- 'Will you stay for long?

- Five days... five days is nothing.

How is it here?

Very nice. This is what

I was telling him before.

Life here is much better.

The people?

Very nice. Very open.

To the point of being annoying at times.

And the women?

Well, surely they don't look

like Greek women.

And what do Greek

women look like?

This is what Greek

women are like.

And from what I see now.

This picture should read "come inside".

Excuse me?

You stand covering the sign, so it

reads entra instead of entrada.

Which means come in...

A window saying come in".

Very easy.

This is where I want a picture.

And what does this photo say?

"The sting"

now I will take your picture.

And this one will say

"I ought to"

what's your name?

Phaedra

what?

Do you know what my name is?

What?

Hippolytos?

Yes

what's happening? Are we going

or are we staying here?

Let's go.

Let's go

don't you have anything

to say to me anymore?

What do you mean?

What's wrong?

Women...

You're all crazy.

What the hell's the matter with you?

Nothing.

So why can't you leave me be

for a moment?

What is it you are short of?

Do you love me?

This is unbelievable.

Do you think it's possible

I don't love you?

Why would I be here

if I didn't love you?

What am I doing here

with you then?

I am up to my neck in the sh*t

so you can live like a Queen.

What more proof do you want?

Why won't you touch me anymore?

I have a lot in my mind.

And I don't?

We men are different.

In what?

What the hell do you want to know?

Should a woman

make a move on you...

Where would you take it?

Very high.

For sure.

It was an incredible scholarship.

I had just finished my practice

in the "sergi", you know it?

And out of 600 applicants.

They choose me.

Imagine I

to work in the best European restaurants

for a whole year...!

France, Italy, Belgium.

Even as a scholar, but it was...

Like touching a dream with the fingertips.

Crazy!

I met nerea and I thought...

How can I go away for a year

and loose this woman?

I fold!

She is my inspiration.

'With her on my side I don't need anything

I'm in Barcelona damn it!

I've already cut a Mountain

of onions in the "sergi"...

There's sea here, sun, and

I'm in love... f*** it I

I said back then...

Decision.

Right.

So why don't you leave all this now?

You are alone right?

Yes.

You wouldn't understand.

You don't let go.

Do you think I don't let go?

Yes. I think you don't let go.

And you?

Do you?

Does it seem I don't?

And I have another thing to tell you.

It's been 13 minutes I'm waiting.

To you.

To you.

What a dead toast.

Don't tell me how to toast.

You won't escape this easily.

Have you gone out since

the day I came to your place?

No.

Why?
