is tired of so many...

ineffectiveness... Did you realize that Emilio

didn't came either.

Emilio is special for him and you know ...

Emilio is special because he actually makes the

things Salva asks for

Salva is coming. He did everything for us. If you

don't believe in him...

...leave. You're a bunch of cowards.

I'm not a coward. And I do believe in Salva. But

I also belive we aren't worthy

Are we going to discuss much longer? We have

a lot to do ...

You're forgetting one detail ...

Did you bring the ropes?

Yes

We will tie her up until everything is over

Tie her? This woman can jeopardize our

mission

Do you have a better idea?

Shoot her in the head

Nobody would say that you're an intelligent

person when you come up...

... with this caveman solutions

I also think she might cause problems. And I

think what Jorge says is quite

intelligent. We didn't study this many years...

...for this chick to come to ruin everything. Do I

have to remind you that

this is the only opportunity we'll have in our

lifetime?

No ... no, I haven't seen anything. I'm not going

to tell, really

I will not say anything. Please, please... Don't

do anything crazy, please ...

It doesn't matter what you've seen. You just

don't know a thing.

If you only knew what we're doing.

Enough. Until Salva gets here, you do what I

say Jorge.

Alberto, think clearly. You're a driver, you got a

lot of responsibility.

Jorge, tie this woman

Victoria, I think -

Tie this woman!

I'll help you. Angela, go help Victoria with the

boxes.

Where do we take her?

Let's tie her in the kitchen

Beware with the jars. I dropped one on the

stairs while waiting

Jorge's signal to come in.

Stay still, okey?

Nice invention, huh?

Angela, you brought the ropes, right?

The Founding Fathers could have give this a

good use...

I've already told you.

Look in the other box.

It's such a pitty I can't take much with me now...

South american sh*t! Good for nothing!

Because you're so smart, right?

You should have seen your face when I

mentioned euros ...

Something changed in your face... The twinkle

in your eyes... Pathetic.

Sometimes we pay a very high price for money,

you know?

Thackeray said that

That's so deep, Jorge! Why don't you slice your

throat and see how much...

...it takes you to bleed to death?

In time, in time...

What are you doing?

What are those candles for? A ritual?

Not exactly

Are you a satanic cult?

I don't even know how to explain. The Wolf

number, do you know

...what that is? You don't, right?

are you a sect?

No. We're not a bunch of crazy brainwashed

people.

Each one of us did some very important

research.

And Salva?

Salva tells us what to do... He's ..

He's your leader?

Our guide

He spent a lifetime deciphering cycles

is he like a Messiah?

No, not at all.

He understood that sunspots were the key.

Their connection...

...with the cycles. The twenty two years...

The great cycle that goes from September 1 st,

Today precisely...

But you don't know what it means. Neither what

couples are. And why

...we needed to find the driver and the driven ...

We found the ideal place

to begin our journey

The greatest journey

ever made by any man

And today we will start it

All of you are crazy

You asked me. We knew you wouldn't

understand

Don't you see? You've been brainwashed ...

No. I feel sorry for you. For all those that been

told not to use aerosols.

For those convinced that the earth is warming

just because...

...it is convenient to use other kind of fuel

You have never seen the biggest force, capable

to erase everything from...

... the face of the earth in an instant

You see it coming out and hiding all the time.

But you don't know anything.

Enough. We can't continue wasting our time

with her.

No, what are you gonna do?

What are you doing?

Shut your mouth

Do you realize that no one will ever know about

this? It's such a heavy weight ...

She is not okay like this.

Stay still. You're going to cut yourself.

I told you we had to get rid of her.

She's a fighter

Yes, but you shouldn't fight a battle unless you

are convinced...

... that you can win the war.

Jorge!

Hello ...

I am your neighbor of the second floor. I came

to bring her cellphone.

She left it in my house ...

But I think it's the wrong apartment

No, ma'am. You're not wrong, it is here.

Finally all of us together

Just in time, Mr. Salva

Mr. Salva what should we do

with these two?

Take her to another room.

Who's the other one?

She is the owner of the house

She's a menace

It doesn't matter, Jorge. Let her stay.

Let her watch. Are you curious?

Take her with us. We can't be rude,

she's our hostess.

Cellphones or anything like that?

Only hers

Out

I see everything is set to begin

It seems to be the right place

Very good job. Congratulations.

I'm very happy about your teamwork

You dealt with crises, complications ...

Congratulations

I'm sure you will be rewarded for the work you

did

Get on your place

Is this the female?

Yes, she is...

Excellent choice. A strong race ...

If anyone has the slightest doubt in his mind

about what it's going to do...

This is the moment to leave our circle

Don't you feel it? Is coming

Now

No!

Let me go through this again

Apartment B in the fourth floor. Is it yours?

Yes

You don't live there but you were inside before

and during the eclipse?

Yes

Were you there when they killed the black

woman? When she was beheaded

I've told a thousand times. She was killed by

those six guys ...

Who commited suicide right after that

In your apartment?

Why don't you go up and check it yourself?

Come with me, ma'am. I want you to see

something. Please ...

We found two bodies in your apartment, ma'am.

One of a beheaded black woman, one from an

old lady, a neighbor ...

But there is no trace of the bodies of the six

individuals who...

...according to you, are guilty of this facts

No one saw any member of this sect entering or

leaving the place...

... but many neighbours told us that you

provoked incidents

shortly before the murders ...

Now you have to come with me to the police

station so I can understand

how half a dozen people disappear without a

trace ...

Or until I hear a more believable story.

You have been watching PENUMBRA

To the milkman, the policeman

the postman, the newsagent

I said hi!

I got used to live

With them and not to tell them

What I know

They think they are normal

And I treat them as such

Not showing

The sickness that I feel

Shaking their hands and answering

I'm fine and you?

And you tell me

That I'm a paranoid

But it is true

Sure they're watching us

Sure they're chasing us

We are surrounded by monsters,

With two eyes on the face

And ten-fingered hands

We are surrounded by monsters,

With two eyes on the face

And only ten toes

Solidarity, fraternity,

Equality and compassion

A bunch of empty words

Disguised with good manners

I sing to simple things
