Because he's on that beach.

And he's going to stay

there forever now.

He won't be coming back, Manuela.

Manuela.

Don't cry.

I'm here to visit you, like he said.

Aren't I?

It's all right.

It's all right.

M:

- We missed ourflight.

- I know.

I've been calling you

and your brotherfortwo hours!

- Giulia...

- I was about to call the police!

- I'm fine.

- But you can't imagine...

- Nothing happened!

- Where were you?!

I have a sister

I never knew existed,

the daughter of

my father's lover.

She's mentally ill

and interned in a clinic.

That's where I was.

Yeah Moreira, Moreira...

This isn't the first time.

How many times did

Armando send you here?

He's just lost his father, Giovanni.

I'll advance part of it foryou, ok?

My patience is over.

Tiago, do you hear me?

Tiago, look at me.

Between you and me,

I'll go with me.

Eitheryou pay...

oryou pay.

Orders?

Whose orders?

I can't pay out amounts over

five thousand, Mr. Tiago.

Not to anyone, it's notjust you.

Fine Janana. Just tell me

who gave the order.

I think you should talk to your brother.

Marcos...

Marcos!

Oh Bibi, come here.

Here.

No one fed you, did they?

Where's Marcos, huh?

You know, Marcos, life is like golf.

There are some shitty clubs out there

that make the caddies swim...

forthe lost balls at

the end of the day.

Here, we leave the balls

where they fall.

Each ball in its place.

That way there's no shame.

Marcos, my boy,

I knowthat yourfather

left you with some serious problems.

And I can help you, your brother

and thatjerk Moreira sort things out.

Youjust have to leave

the dud balls where they are.

Preserve the family.

You understand what

I'm trying to say?

You'rejust going to throw everything

out, without looking through it?

Aren't you even

going to tell your brother?

Tiago doesn't give a sh*t.

Mr. Bonelli, good evening.

Please contact Mr.

Giorgio Maranza. Thank you.

I've been thinking...

of course,

if it's alright with you...

I'd like to keep the house.

It's yours, Tiago.

Whatever was his, is yours.

And yours, right?

I passed by the office today.

Good.

You can't go on spending

what the company doesn't have,

...just so you don't end up

losing the house.

I might look stupid, but I'm not.

Your cell-phone was ringing.

Thanks.

You two sure look glum.

I thought we were going out?

You'd never guess you hadn't seen

each otherfor centuries.

So, let's go?

Tell him.

She says she thinks we should...

I understood.

I didn't understand,

but I understood.

A little air will do us all some good.

I think it'll be good...

if we go out.

Hi.

What happened? Did you

fall down the stairs?

You've got to be careful

with those guys, you know?

I'm not a kid, understand?

I can take care of myself, okay?

Aguy earns some money,

then he disappears.

First-rate cocaine.

No.

What do you mean?

It's the best.

- Cut it out, Tiago.

- Hey, take it easy.

Tiago stop it.

I'm talking to you Tiago.

Tiago, cut this sh*t out.

Are you nuts?

Are you nuts, man?

Are you crazy?

- Tiago, stop!

- What did you do that for?!

Marcos!

Marcos!

- Are you nuts, mate?!

- Tiago. Leave it. Let it go, Tiago.

Are you crazy?!

Look at me.

Look at me.

Calm down.

- Hello.

- Marcos?

Hi Giorgio.

I waited the whole day

yesterday for you to call me.

Can you hear me?

I can't wait any more!

I have to schedule a meeting with

the people from IGS for next week...

and I need you here, Marcos!

Right.

Let me talk to Giulia.

It's foryou.

Dad.

Giulia, what's going on over there?

I don't know dad,

things are pretty confused.

Who's that?

You know?

No, you don't.

I do, it's dad.

Dad.

This one is...

Tiago.

- Tiago.

- Yeah.

Tiago does nothing,

but he's a really nice boy.

Marcos is smart, he's away

travelling, but he'll be back soon.

The photo of dad wearing glasses.

It's funny, so many people.

Don't be sad.

Want to go for a ride in the car?

Let's go?

Dear brothers and sisters.

Perhaps no human suffering compares

to the pain of losing a loved one,

especially when there are deep bond

of affection and identification.

The strongerthe bond,

the greater will be the pain

and suffering of the separation.

We are gathered here today

a week after his passing

whose departure

we now commemorate.

This is Giulia.

For us Christians,

death is not the end...

it is but a threshold

to eternal life.

Today we come together

to remember him who,

though no longer amongst us,

lives on in our hearts.

I would like to ask you all

to observe a minute's silence

- Manuela, quiet now... okay?

...in the memory of Armando Bonelli.

Let's say a prayerforyourfather.

Like this, see?

Let's go outside, come on.

Let's go outside.

What were you thinking?

In case you didn't notice,

uncle Dante wasn't pleased.

I don't care about uncle Dante.

Right.

So now you're going to

take this girl with you

whereveryou go, hand in hand?

She obviously can't stay on her own.

Can you understand that?

You can't.

You've always had dad,

the housekeeper, a dog,

a swimming pool.

You don't have a clue

what it means to be alone.

You spent your life alone

because that's what you wanted.

That's what I wanted?

Not like that, Manuela.

Inside. Come on.

Let's go?

Let's go?

How was it, Manuela?

Have a nice time?

It was great.

- Have fun?

- Yes.

So we'll do it

again soon? OK?

- Bye.

- No, come watch television.

No, I have to go home now, Manuela.

I'll come back and

we'll go on another outing.

Come on, dinnertime now.

Let's watch television...

- there's a really good show on!

- Manuela, come on now.

No, no!

- Manuela.

- Let me go.

- We need your project...

- I'm doing what I can, Marta,

but it's really difficult here.

I'll organize things and

see what I can do.

We can't delay this

presentation any longer.

I'll call you later.

- Bye.

- Ok, bye.

Hi.

I'll explain later.

Remember Giulia?

Bibi? Hey Bibi, hey Bibi,

I missed you, Bibi, my pal Bibi...

Good night.

What's the matter?

What's the matter, Manuela?

I can't sleep.

Come.

Give me that.

This stays with me now.

Ever played cards?

You know what this is?

This is a disease. Once you learn,

you can never stop.

Except you're not going to learn,

because you're a half-wit.

No, no. Hey.

This game here is called patience.

You play alone.

Of course, you have to knowthe cards,

you have to know howto count.

I can count, you can't.

Giovanni son of a b*tch.

Sit down before it gets cold.

I have a meeting

at the company this afternoon.

Can you stay with Manuela?

Thanks.

I need to talk to you.

Right, but not now, I have to go.

We'll talk later.

My life is not a company matter.

Not while yourfather was alive.

Things are different now.

You had to open your big trap,

didn't you Moreira? Son of a b*tch.

- You were being threatened.

- Threatened, man?

Excuse me.

Son of a b*tch.

I don't know how you're going to

pay your debt, or save the business.

And I don't know howto get it into your
