A NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM

- Hello, Andrea.

- Hello, Jon.

Are you with David?

He's not picking up.

No, I'm waiting outside.

I think he was in a meeting.

What nerve.

If he's not out in five minutes,

drag him out by the hair.

Okay.

And can you get some ice

from the 24-hour store?

Your buddy can't do without

his gin and tonic.

Whatever you say, boss.

Go on, don't be long. Big kiss.

See you soon. Big kiss.

That's it, Jon. Let's go.

Thirty-two minutes late.

Sorry. I'll tell you later. Go.

I need some ice

from the 24-hour store.

And champagne.

No sh*t. You're going to ask her?

Tonight?

Sure, with you there.

F***, no. I'll tell her we're spending

the weekend in Paris.

That's great. Paris.

Yes. I'll propose to her in Paris.

She'll love it.

I'm happy for you. For both of you.

I know.

And you know who's going to be

my best man?

- If she says yes.

- Sh*t, man. Can you imagine?

Kneeling under the Eiffel Tower like:

"Will you marry me?"

"Well, no.

F*** off!"

Stop kidding!

I'll go.

- Want anything?

- Don't forget the ice. Thanks.

24-HOUR STORE

David.

David.

David.

David!

Call an ambulance!

Call an ambulance!

INCOMING CALL:

ANDREA:

David...

10 YEARS LATER

A guy was killed in there ten years ago.

There was blood

and bits of brain on the floor.

I heard it was a shooting.

And two guys died.

Look.

He's gonna piss himself.

For me.

Now go inside the store

and get us a porn mag.

Go on, move it!

- Move it!

- Go!

Nico, what are you doing here?

I waited for you at school

for half an hour!

Are you all right?

Sorry, Mom.

Go on, get in.

Where's your bag?

At school, I don't have any homework.

This is the last time you leave

without telling me.

Go on, put on your seat belt.

Okay.

How is he?

In a coma. They're going to do

some brain activity tests on him,

we'll have the results in the morning.

My brother's not going without a fight.

- Can I see him?

- One second.

Did you see who did it?

I saw someone leave,

but not his face. It was so fast.

He ran off?

No, he got in a car.

- Anything else?

- There was another man inside.

He was... I don't know,

from the East or Russian.

He had a tattoo here and he was hurt.

He pointed a gun at me

and left.

We'll get the f***er who did this.

- Let's go.

- Yes.

My love...

My darling...

You have to fight. Please.

Don't leave me alone. Please.

Please hold on.

Please hold on.

He can't die.

He's not going to die.

You owe us a mag, a**hole!

Hey!

Don't forget it, d*ckhead!

Mom!

Mom, let's go.

Let's go.

- You have to defend yourself.

- They're older than me.

If they insult or hit you,

tell the teacher, or I will.

I'm not a snitch, Mom.

Please don't talk to the school.

Unless you defend yourself,

they'll keep messing with you.

And they'll take your backpack.

I have to get gas.

Go get a shake, I'll be right there.

What are you doing?

Aren't you a bit young

to be stealing porn mags?

How old are you?

I'll be 10 next week.

Please don't tell my mother.

Don't worry.

Thanks.

Nico, did you get the shake?

Not yet.

What are you waiting for?

How much is it? Number 7.

That's 30 euros for the gas

and the magazine.

- Thanks.

- Thank you.

Do you come to this store a lot?

No.

It looked like the owner knew you.

What were you talking about?

Did you know a guy

got killed in there ten years ago?

They blew his brains out.

- Who told you that?

- Some kids from school.

Is it true?

The same ones that were picking on you?

I'm sure they made it up to scare you.

It's a positive response.

We're optimistic.

But we have to wait.

- It's too soon to tell.

- Excuse me.

The doctor said that a vein

is blocking the temporal lobe

and that may be why

his brain's not reacting.

Can they save him?

Yes. It's a difficult surgery, but yes,

there's a chance

he could come out of the coma.

That's great news.

- When are they operating on him?

- I don't know.

He's still very weak.

They've given him blood transfusions

and they have to watch his progress.

Excuse me.

Marta.

Listen... did you get my message?

SHOOTING IN 24-HOUR STORE

He's still very weak.

Don't tell Mom and Dad yet, okay?

No, don't worry. I'll keep you posted.

TERRORIST ATTACK BY ETA

IN SAME PLACE 32 YEARS AGO

Bye.

Jon.

Jon.

Thirty-two years ago

there was an attack in the same place.

In the 24-hour store?

Go home and get some rest,

you must be exhausted.

No, I'm fine.

Shall we get some dinner or...?

No, I want to spend some time

with David's mother.

Relax. If anything happens

I'll tell you, okay?

- Okay.

- All right.

Thanks.

- Bye.

- Bye.

SAVING A LIFE:

LISANDRO LPEZ, 10

Ten, 32...

Ten, 32...

GAS STATION:

32 YEARS AGO

...A 32-YEAR-OLD MAN

WITH TWO GUNSHOT WOUNDS...

Ten, 32...

Nico, your snack.

Eat up and then finish your homework.

Nico, your snack.

What's wrong, Nico?

Are you all right?

Bastards.

Don't worry.

It's all right.

It's just a sick joke.

Get up, you've had an accident.

Sorry, Mom.

I didn't notice.

Never mind. It's fine.

Go to the bathroom.

WHATEVER HAPPENS,

DON'T GO TO THE 24-HOUR PLACE

ON YOUR BIRTHDAY.

IF YOU DO, YOU'LL DIE.

It was in his bag, inside that envelope.

They're making his life impossible.

They pick on him, take his things,

hit him. No one does anything.

I saw it myself the other day.

And now this.

Luca, we do all we can

to avoid these situations.

I'll find out who these boys are

and I'll talk to them.

It's not about talking.

I won't allow that they do this to my son.

I want them to be punished, expelled.

I understand, but this is a state school.

We can't do anything

without being totally sure.

First, I'd have to talk to Nico.

He won't tell you anything.

He keeps it to himself,

and he's having a rough time.

They're scaring him with the story

of the man killed in the gas station.

And now this letter?

They're harassing him.

Those are harsh words.

Harsh words?

"Whatever happens,

don't go to the 24-hour store

on your birthday, April 12, 2018.

If you do, you'll die."

When Nico read this letter,

he wet himself.

That's never happened to him.

Let's do this. Leave me the note, please.

If they bother Nico again,

he needs to report it.

To the teacher, the head teacher or me.

Otherwise, we can't help him.

Take a good look.

There.

The bullet came from that f***er's gun.

- Did you find out anything else?

- No.

But we'll catch him.

It's a matter of time.

How are the others?

The store guy and the boy.

The owner's all right.

He got a good scare, but...

I'm worried about the boy, he's only 10.

Ten?

Yes, why?

Did you know that in 1976

there was an attack there?

And there was a boy, too.

Ten years old.

That's strange. Isn't it?

Pure chance.

F***ing bugs.

What's wrong?

My mom went to talk

to the principal yesterday

and I'm sure I'll get into trouble

with Luis and his friends.

Look.

Let's go.

Whose idea was it?

We didn't do anything.

Sure, the note wrote itself

and magically got into Nico's bag.
