Mar adentro

---

Calm...

Your feel more and more calm...

Now imagine a screen...

A movie screen that opens before you...

Create on it any place you like...

Concentrate on your breathing...

Helping your body

to relax... Feel at peace...

You don't have to change

it. Just let it come and go...

Come and go...

Now...

You are there...

Pay attention to the details...

The colors...

The textures...

The light...

The temperature. Feel the temperature...

Allow this calm view

to develop before you...

The feeling of peace is infinite...

It's raining cats and dogs...

Are you sure this is closed...

Are you more calm now?

Well, is not easy. With

that view I have in front...

What view?

I can see through your skirt...

You are such a pig!

You know what, I won't read you anymore.

Besides, is almost

time. I'm going to pick her up...

Ok, Ill stand up

and prepare some coffee...

Would you like some music?

Ok, whatever is on...

Ok, Ill leave you with your Wagner...

See you in a while...

OUT TO SEA:

Julia, get in the

car. You're going to freeze...

You are Gen, right. I am Mark, hello...

And Julia?

It looks like Galicia doesn't like us...

Yeah, well, it's February.

How was your flight?

Fine. We finally meet...

Would you mind coming

with me in the car?

We had agreed that only

one person would come...

Yes, of course...

- And?...

- Oh, Mark? He's only here to take notes...

- Ok. Do you trust him?

- Yes. Well... He works at the firm...

Look, Im not sure if you are aware...

...of the step that Ramon has to take...

Of course I know the step

Ramon has to take.

We've talked about it...

Today it's you, then its the press,

then it's the television.

Ramon is afraid that this

could be taken in the wrong direction...

All I can tell you is that Ive come

to do things as best as possible...

I hope so...

And I remind you that for

me this is really important...

Not only professionally...

Believe me I understand Ramon very well...

- Hello

- Hello...

My name is Julia...

You are the lawyer...

This is Manuela. Ramon's sister in law

- Do you want help?

- No, no. It's fine...

They're here...

- Hello

- Hello...

Excuse me for not giving you my hand...

How come?

They tell me you are a little nervous...

Well, let's see. The

first thing is breakfast...

What time?

9:
30. Don't think that

I like to wake up early...

After that, I

listen to the radio for bit...

What do you like to listen to?

A little of everything. Mostly debates.

You like debates?

Yes, yes. I like the party...

See. This is my personal computer...

- Did you design it?

- Yes, I like inventions.

My father or my nephew builds them...

You are so serious all of a sudden...

Why dying?

Well, let's see. I want to die because...

...for me, life in this

way... is not worthy...

I can understand if other

tetraplegic could...

...feel offended when I say life

like this is not worthy...

But I don't judge anyone.

Who am I to judge those

that want to live?

That's why I ask not to be judged

nor the person that helps me to die...

And do you think

someone is going to help you?

Well, that would depend on the

ones taking the decision.

If they manage to conquer their fears...

Is not such a big deal. Death has always...

...been there and always will be...

In the end we all get there.

All of us. It is a part of us...

Why are they so surprised because

I say I want to die?

As if it is contagious...

If we finally go to trial,

they will ask you why...

...you don't seek alternatives

to your disability...

Why do you reject the wheel chair?

To accept the wheelchair

would be like accepting...

...breadcrumbs of what

used to be my freedom...

Look, you are sitting there,

less than 2 meters away...

What are 2 meters?

An insignificant trip

for any human being...

Well, for me, those 2 meters,

necessary to get to you...

...and being able to touch you,

is an impossible journey...

...a chimera, a dream...

That's why I want to die...

The three hours have passed, Ramon...

She has to change my posture...

Would you mind waiting downstairs?

He called us a year ago. He wanted

us to, literally, help him die...

I told him that we could provide

psychological help, legal support.

But we wouldn't put

the cyanide in his mouth...

He got very mad. He called us

liars. I had to hang the phone...

A few days later he

called again, more calm.

I was surprised at how decided he was...

- He has ever hesitated?

- Never...

That is very important...

- And how long has he been like this?

- 26 years...

His mother used to take

care of him but when...

...she died, his sister in law took over...

How do you feel?

Fine, this arm... A little higher...

I'm going to change the catheter...

- Not now Manuela

- Is just a moment. Let them wait...

She is married to

Jose, Ramon's brother...

They live of the farm and

a little orchard they have...

And what do they think about this?

Ideas are free.

But I think that is not right...

But why not?

I want what's best for him. Everyone

in this house wants that...

Then why would he want to die?

I cannot get that into my head...

Is not rational, as he says...

I cannot give it to

him and I don't give...

...my authorization to

do it in this house...

Hello...

- Don't leave that there Javi!

- Oh come on mom!

Take it to your room...

Your uncle wants you

to check the machine...

- The bag...

- Yes!

- What's wrong?

- The roller is a little stuck...

- Didn't you have exam today?

- No. And the lawyer...

She is with Gen and

grandpa. He took them to the beach...

They might end up in

Corunna. With that head of him...

Don't talk like that

about your grandfather...

His mind is completely gone...

Of course, he is old, what do you want?

Well, that he stays out of the way...

He is all day at home...

As if we needed him.

What...

Look, one day... I don't know

when, maybe in a long time...

One day you are going to regret so

much, so much what you just said.

That you will want the

ground to swallow you...

- But why?

- One day, you'll see. One day...

Here the ocean is very treacherous.

Those who dare bathe in

it, have to be very careful...

My son jumped from here.

I don't know what he was thinking.

He jumped exactly when the water was...

...receding and he hit his

neck against the sand...

This is very very sad.

God wants him to keep on living.

But you know that he

doesn't want to live anymore...

But, he never told me

anything, he never told me...

...he never told me anything...

Look, we will win Heaven, because we...

...have spent our whole lives in Hell...

I tape this image so the judges or...

...politicians or

whoever has to decide...

...understand better...

Apparently they can't identify

with the psychological pain of the...

...person, then maybe this way they'll

understand that this is not life...

Why do you smile so much Ramon?

When you can't escape and

depend constantly on others...

You learn to cry by laughing...
