Mati! What's wrong, Mati?

Come on!

It's ok.

What's up?

'- Are we there? -

Yes, we're almost there.

Here.

She'll fall asleep, she's tired.

Hang on...

It's over there.

Great!

This way.

Wait here. I'll put the lights on. Ok?

What was that?

Just a pigeon.

Put her down here.

Our bedroom.

It's big.

'- Nice, isn't it?

- Yes but it's cold.

I'm going to light the

heater and it'll warm up soon.

Have you seen these walls?

'- They don't make them

like this anymore. - No...

'- I'll get the

heater going. - Ok.

Are you ok?

What do you want?

Do you like it?

Do you like... the house?

I said, I'm going to

sleep in my clothes.

Hang on.

No!

It's cold!

You've got to eat. Stop it

Eat your cereaI.

Watch out!

No!

Don't do that!

Leave her alone.

No, it's wrong.

I've just set the table, she must learn.

'- She's too little.

- Doesn't matter.

'- Come on, put the cereaI

in here. - Calm down mummy!

Put the cereaI in here.

Tidy it up...

Come on, Mati.

That's it.

What's Daddy doing?

'- Will you give her

some? - Here you are!

There's no signaI.

Great, so no one can bother us.

Come with daddy!

Come on.

Come here.

Look!

Look at this tree.

'- It's an Araucaria.

- Mati! Look!

It must be a hundred years old...

...looking at its height.

The swimming pooI.

It's a water tank...

.. but we'll make it into a pooI.

It will be beautifuI.

Come here.

Let's go in. It's getting cold.

Look what a nice playground.

Do you want to go on a swing?

We'll come later in the afternoon.

There you are.

Be carefuI.

Come on, let's just make some pasta.

Matilda! Come here!

What are you doing?

Be carefuI!

They are eating all the vegetables!

Shouldn't we tell someone?

There's no one.

But try shouting, do something!

Sh*t!

Go away, pig! Go away!

Go away, pig!

What is daddy doing?

It's over. That's the countryside.

By yourself with the

pigs, you scared me!

Look at the baby pig!

Come on, let's go.

That's it! Good girI!

Disgusting!

Mmmm! Delicious!

Well done! Have a little bit of cheese.

Isn't that good? Do you want some more?

Hello.

I'm sorry. Did I scare you?

Who are you? What do you want?

I'm Odelsia.

Julian asked me to look in on you.

Sure!

How are you?

Fine, thanks...

I just came by to see

if you need anything...

We're fine.

Julian gave me some money

for you. I'll get it.

Oh dear! Look at this mess!

I'll clean it up.

There you are.

Leave it, I'll do it.

No, thanks.

Ay! Hello!

Look at this little doll!

She wants to walk.

A big girI like her... come on!

No, it's ok... She doesn't want to.

'- She's just a baby... -

Yes, but she should be walking!

But she's just a baby... It's ok.

Where do you live?

My house is over there...

...behind the hill.

This house is really cold...

It's been five years...

.. since someone was living here.

Five years.

Everything fine?

Yes.

'- I'll leave you

some cabbage. - Thanks!

Cook it soon, otherwise it will go off.

No, Mati... Put it down, we

don't want it, really. Thank you.

Maybe you don't want it, but it's good.

No, thanks.

'- Thank you very much.

- You're welcome. Anytime.

Yes, thanks.

Well... see you soon.

'- Why didn't you get the key

from her? - Why were you so rude?

Get the keys from her!

She comes without

asking. I don't like her.

She's the caretaker, that's

why she has the keys...

I don't want her here again.

What are you doing? Can't

you see it's dangerous?

I'm nowhere near her. What's the matter?

Sweetheart, stay here.

I was miles away from her.

It wasn't dangerous.

'- I don't

like it. - What?

I don't like it here.

The house is ugly, depressing...

.. it's cold. I don't like it.

What's wrong now? Come on!

This is not a place for

Matilda. She's a baby.

The house needs doing up...

.. but it's beautifuI.

Come on!

You didn't realize that

the house was inhabitable?

What do you mean inhabitable?

Did you expect Buckingham palace?

We both saw the photos.

We talked about the repairs...

What's wrong with you now?

ok. We'll repair everything...

...and come back when it's done.

I've been thinking. You're right.

We'll fix up the house...

...and come back in the summer.

No.

We'll stay now... for a few days.

Forgive me.

I'm unbearable, I don't know why.

And another baby?

When are we going to have one?

We've talked about this.

It'd be so nice...

Do you want her to be an only child?

No... I need to work again...

I need to do my things.

What things?

Last night I dreamt I was crying...

I woke up, and my face was dry.

Why will you crying?

I don't know.

I cried a lot.

Well, never mind.

Let's go to sleep.

Come here.

'- Sweety, what

happened? - Mummy!

Did she hit her head?

'- She should see

a doctor. - Where?

But if she hit her head,

when she falls she'll die.

Where? But it's pouring!

Come on!

What's wrong?

Nothings wrong. Can't you

see we're stuck in the mud?

It's stuck!

'- Where are

you going? - Out!

Press here..

Look at this!

Can you look after her for a while?

I'm almost done.

We're going to the old lady's...

...to see if they can

help me with the car.

Ok

'- Yes?

- Ok.

Bye

Bye.

You've come too?

Yes.

'- This

way? - Yes.

Be carefuI.

He was thrown by a horse...

...so he was paralyzed.

He was in a wheelchair.

His wife...

...would push him outside.

To sit on the porch.

He'd stay looking at the

countryside for hours...

UntiI one day he said:

"don't take me out anymore...

...I don't want to see

the countryside again. "

He just stayed in his room.

He lasted...

...three months.

He couldn't get out of bed anymore.

He needed help...

...to change his clothes...

The wife on the other

hand was much easier.

She cut her throat...

...and that was it.

No, thanks.

Shall we go?

Let's go.

We might need a rope, have you got one?

Yes... In the truck.

Wait! Take us home first.

I'll pick you up in a while.

Shall I fry her some meat?

No, thanks. She had a tangerine.

Tangerine! No wonder she's so thin.

No!

Yes! Let's go to see the little puppy!

It's pretty!

Don't go! Wait!

'- Mati! Mati! -

Come on, sweety!

Do you want one?

Look at this!

Here you are.

Two? No!

Lovely! Here!

So nice!

Will you take it?

We can't. We live in an apartment.

Leave the puppy there!

You have a house now.

It's a mess, anyway.

We can't.

Take it, ma'am, please.

It'll be good for the girI.

She has no brothers or

sisters to play with.

You're telling me what's good for her?

She's my daughter.

Say bye to the puppy.

And give me the keys to the

house as soon as you can.

I'll bring the keys.

This drain was blocked.

That's why the roof flooded.

I fixed it.

What's wrong?

I don't know. I don't feeI well.

I feeI there is something wong.

'- What? -

Something.

What?

I don't want us to separate.

We won't!

I don't want anything bad to happen.

If we don't want bad things

to happen, they won't.

How about going to town?

'- Now?

- Yes.

We can buy things for the house.

I want to change dishes, curtains...
