When you finish playing,

you must keep the toys.

I know.

And this? How come it's here?

I don't use it anymore. It is warm.

You can also keep it.

"INFAMOUS MOB OF NOCTURNAL BIRDS"

"Ite, misa est". (Go, the mass is over)

Let me go. Please bring me a cup of water with sugar.

We were in the part where the vision

of that woman... upsets you.

Her memory...

I can't take it out of my head.

I, ...

She leaves, I see her, ...

she moves her hips...

She moves them as ...

She wobbles. That is, she wobbles.

Does she flirt?

Do you think she's insinuating?

Insinuating...

No.

I do not think so.

I do not know, I am confused.

But what's clear is that she does not

dress with modesty.

She uses light, tight clothes...

Well...

The heat started already, right?

I mean the weather.

Yes, but as I did not have...

I do not know how to say it...

Any dealings

Any frequent, normal, dealing

with sin, until the war...

What happens to you comes with the age,

not with the wars.

As you want, Father, but I expected...

that returning to the seminary will free...

me from the nightmare.

And why would you?

The daemon does not rest, it's his business.

Yes, but I think I use all the weapons

that religion gives us.

I want to see each woman as...

... Eve, mother of us all before the sin.

Or as martyrs...

who allowed the circus lions to tore their flesh...

and eat them alive, before losing their virtue.

This is not a good way, son.

You will see no Eves in the streets

You agree, none walks around naked.

You see them naked when you see them, right?

About the martyrs...

forget about them.

You risk feeling like a lion.

Confession teaches a lot, you'll see.

And what can I do?

Hold to the demon by the horns, boy!

I fear that woman beats me, Father.

I think, Salvador, that in this game...

you are the board, the pieces, and the dice.

Maybe you don't want to see it.

Let's go to take some air.

Well, you can breath here.

Tell me... This Elena, how did you meet her?

She is a widower, a pupil's mother.

An intelligent boy.

A little reserved, perhaps shy.

It seems sometimes yes, and sometimes not.

Silence, doubts, something of a revolt,

back in the deep one.

The mother, the mother.

She brings the boy to school, it's when I see her.

She brings the boy, attends the flag raising...

Sings "Face to the sun".

Sings or not, because the other day brother Venancio...

The mother.

The mother also comes to pick him up.

The same happens again.

Everybody falls in, sings the song...

and when they go, she moves

the hips while walking.

Yes. She wobbles.

I get stressed.

Son, you get stressed...

because you look at it.

You so look at it.

The only remedy for that situation is

to pulling the rope stronger than the devil.

And if you, who has to do it,

don't do it, then it's the end.

What if I can't?

How come you cannot?

What do you pretend, to run away and come

back here, to the seminary?

You want to get refuge in the seminary?

It would be useless.

Because there's no wall, or trench...

that cannot be crossed by luxury, understand?

And that's what's happening to you: Luxury.

Are you going to give up?

Never!

What would happen to the flock, to the faithful, ...

ran away from the wolf,

instead of fighting with him?

Temptation hurts more than sin, son.

Because sin ends up with forgiveness.

But temptation is interminable, perennial.

Can't you see with what deep art,

God manages pain into us?

You are in the world

to vanquish the demon, the flesh...

the "sursum corda", and even you.

Above all, you.

Then, Salvador...

Then, my son...

Come back to your old seminary.

Not to hide, but to sing Mass...

Triumphant, invicto!

I've never asked you something...

And I'm curious about it.

Yes, Father?

Have you ever seen

the Caudillo [Franco] closely?

Yes, once.

He smiled to me.

- Spain! - One!

- Spain! - Great!

- Spain! - Free!

- Long Live Franco! - Long Live!

- Avante Spain! - Avante!

- I'm leaving you here - Why?

Because I have to deliver this.

Come on, run.

I see that the two of us got late.

Yes.

I was thinking about you

Wait a second, I'll be back soon.

I cannot, I must deliver this

to "Bujanda Fashions".

I'll go with you.

Father.

Father.

What happens?

A tooth. I couldn't sleep at all.

Can I go to the dentist?

A tooth?

If you didn't have any, as I do.

Come on, go.

Not, Father. Thank you, Father.

Do you find it wrong that

I have breakfast by myself?

Not. Why should I?

From today on I will be the last one

to have breakfast, alone.

And tell brother Enrique

to take care of his class.

"My mother is called Elena,

and she cooks very well.

"and she can also sew and embroider."

"She hardly cries, and she hides

so that I can't see her."

Watchman!

Watchman!

Watchman!

Dad, mom, are going up!

Go to the bed and don't move.

Going!

I'm going!

Who is this?

Police. Open!

Let's go.

Sit.

Here we are, again.

Have you heard about the

son of a b*tch of your husband?

We do.

He is in France.

Are you happy?

In Toulouse.

Safe.

The problem...

for you, I mean...

w

is that he's got a relationship

with a prostitute.

You drink?

A cousin brought it.

During Christmas.

Drink.

Drink, woman.

Hey, you... Get out from there.

Get out!

Get out!

What about your daughter?

Do you know anything?

We do.

It seems she ran away with her lover,

that Communist...

who played the revolutionary poet.

I am talking to you.

Look at me.

But they will fall.

They will.

Leave my son!

Enough!

I will take it to my mother.

She likes them.

Wait for me outside.

The Toulouse thing was a joke.

Now I'm serious.

The bastard of your husband was guillotined

as a thief and a murderer.

He stole banks.

And don't be sad, f***.

You're a free woman.

You should be happy with the visit.

Do you want to see the boys?

I'll let you choose.

Your loss.

The window.

I do not want to go to school, dad.

Why?

He says a priest dislikes him.

The new one I told you about.

He won't stop asking things to me.

When you died, if I have any brothers.

He asks the same to everybody, right?

No.

Come here.

And you, what do you answer?

First I told him I didn't know, ...

Later that you went on a trip

and the reds killed you, ...

And that mom goes to mass.

And that I want to be an airman.

But he says the good thing is

to be very Spanish and very Christian...

And the best at all is to be a priest.

OK.

Don't listen to him, eh?

Come, get your bag.

I do not want to go, mom.

Come on.

Dad...

Dad has many problems.

You must be strong to help him.

Because you must never, never

lose the faith.

Eh?

Come on, go.

Alas, what a coincidence!

Yes, of course.

It is that I went to the dentist.

For a tooth ...

And you, how are you?

Well, very well, thank you.

I'm very sorry.

About the dentist, I mean.

I'll accompany you.

We can talk about Lorenzo.

As the other day you didn't wait for me.

I didn't know how long it would take you.

And you know, the haste,
