there's nothing wrong with me.
When he leaves, the psychologist
recommends some pills
and tells them to keep acting normal.
Keep feeding him, of course,
even let his friends visit him
so he doesn't get bored.
One day he'll just get up
and all this will be forgotten
like it never happened,
says the psychologist
before leaving.
Now is when I could use a cigarette.
Halfway through the movie
there's another doctor
who's more aggressive
into a hospital.
Because he's depressed.
Depressed, says the mother.
He's only 12 years old.
and they finally decide
than in a hospital.
Then summer arrives,
the boy fails the semester
and they realize
that if this continues
it will be terrible for him.
The father buys a pick-up truck
with an open flatbed
and they put the boy
and his mattress on it
and take a tnp.
With him in his bed?
Yeah, they head north.
Everybody they come across
shows interest in them.
They pass through a town
during the local festival
and they carry the boy on his mattress
through the square
like a statue of the Virgin Mary.
A girl even falls in love with him
and kisses him on the lips
to see if it's like
in the fairy tales.
But no, the boy doesn't get up.
So then the girl decides to go home
and gets in bed as well.
So the girl's parents
and all the townspeople
force them to leave town.
Please, you must leave,
it might be contagious."
The police had to escort them away.
They pass through Barcelona
and set course for Paris.
Are you making this up now?
Are you crazy?
There's a full moon in Paris
and they drive around a while.
A long while around the Eiffel Tower.
It gets dark and the father looks for
somewhere to park and sleep
near the Bois de Boulogne.
What a pretty shot of the boy
on his mattress in the pick-up
with the full moon between the trees.
Too pretty.
Luckily a hooker appears with a customer
and they start f***ing nearby.
Then the customer throws the hooker
out of his car
and she hangs around.
She has dinner with them. The mother
has a portable stove and makes a stew.
Good, I love them having dinner.
Then the hooker goes back to work.
The boy falls into a deep sleep
and the father,
since they left on the tnp,
is content, happy even.
He's left behind the stress
and stench
of all those years
working in the beer factory.
For the first time
he can have a beer
without it tasting like cement.
He convinces his wife
to stray off
into the forest...
lie down...
and make love.
off the pick-up, of course.
They lie down and make love
like they never had before.
In the moonlight on the grass.
There they are,
watching the pick-up,
in each other's arms.
The father's fallen asleep.
The mother watches the boy constantly.
Before dawn, she leaves the father
and heads for the pick-up.
To her surprise, it's empty.
The boy has disappeared.
What!? He's gone?
Don't tell me this ends badly.
How should I know?
Ive never seen it.
I don't know the director
or the actors.
Except the one playing the father,
Augustin Gonzalez.
Wait.
The sun is coming up.
This is what your friend uses to...
No idea.
Come on.
You'll miss the best part.
What happened?
The mother has woken the father
and she shows him the empty mattress.
for the boy
and looking for him
in the trees nearby.
It's daytime now and people start
amving at the park.
But they don't speak French
and they try to tell people
about the lost boy
but nobody understands.
Finally they get back in the pick-up
and start driving around town,
around and around,
through the wole city.
The mother gets desperate,
the father tries to calm her down.
After all, he got up.
Don't you realize?
He finally got out of bed."
The mother doesn't speak, but...
you can tell by her face
to have him there forever,
lying in bed.
And she starts crying
silently
without being dramatic.
She's a good actress.
Better than the father.
He overacts sometimes.
No, they're both very good.
So she's crying.
What else happens
Is anybody there?
Please!
Is anybody there?
What's wrong
We're locked in the bathroom
on the third floor.
Could somebody let us out?
Please, the door is stuck.
I don't live here.
That's okay.
Can you call a phone number?
It's the owner. He'll have the keys.
I don't want any trouble.
It isn't trouble.
I'll pay you.
To make a phone call?
That's right.
To call the number I give you.
I want the money up front.
I don't have it on me.
We're locked in here.
How do I know you'll give it to me
I swear.
I swear I will.
All you have to do
is wait until my friend gets here.
Have you got something
to write with?
No problem, I have a great memory
for numbers.
He might not have called.
He sounded like a junkie
who snuck into the building.
Crazy things are fine a year age
but mew
For me this is like
a personal punishment.
Was it that bad?
I was brought up to feel guilty.
The biggest change is kids today
don't feel guilty about anything.
This is another country.
Who said I don't feel guilty?
Your guilt is different from mine.
I still wake up in the morning
wondering
why I feel so guilty.
You didn't tell me
how the movie ends.
Maybe it was about guilt too, right?
We can meet up another day
and see it again.
You'll walk right over us
like we never
existed.
I don't think so.
We might be just a violent,
corrupt generation
that never lived up to expectation.
I hope yours does better.
We'll try.
Remember, life is the perfect way
to sabotage a dream.
l won't get my hopes up.
What will you think about this
in a few years?
I won't think anything.
Things that happen, right?
I forgot to tell you
not to shut it from the inside.
You've been in there since yesterday.
Did my wife call you?
No.
Goodbye.
There's a guy outside
who says you owe him money.
You know what.
She's too young, even for you.
Sorry.
The lock is broken.
What will I tell Esperanza?
Will you involve me7
Of course.
Are they hers?
Yeah.
Here, give them to her later.
If she wants,
she'll come back for them.
You're not gonna see her again
What do you think?
Myopic.
Two or three gradations.
That worked in your favor,
of course.
Very funny.
We need to change the sheets, right?
No.
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, you're yearning
to enter
than steps to take
Tomorrow draws a path
that's still untrodden
The past is just a stone
you climb to see the future
Don't be smashed by the load
Don't be cnished by the load
Don't be crushed by the load
Don't be overwhelmed
by what you don't have
Don't be overwhelmed
by what you don't have
Don't be overcome by defeats
still to arrive
Don't be overcome by defeats
