The Violin Teacher Page #4

We'll pay you. We will.

OK, don't f*** it up!

Or I'll dig your grave.

- What's up, man?

- Hey.

All good?

- This early?

- I have amazing news for you.

There'll be another audition

at OSESP.

It's for Head of Strings.

Here, I brought this.

You can start studying

the program, man.

What is it, Laerte?

Things are getting better.

Lud wants to re-join the quartet.

OK, guys.

Let's work again on that song.

You were going to start

a new one today.

It's always good to recap.

Next class, we'll start a new one.

What was the song again, Joo Vitor?

Who's there?

I'm armed.

I'm f***ing armed!

Are you crazy, mate?

If I was a thief,

you'd be damned.

And what are you, cloning cards?

Adalto and Smile are waiting

for me on the street.

We're going to Juiz de For a

to get Skeleton's money.

He went to your house yesterday,

scared everybody.

Your grandma was desperate.

Give my grandma this money.

Tell her I'll call her

as soon as I get there, OK?

And you can stay there,

no problem.

- OK?

- All right?

- Take the violin with you.

- Are you crazy? I'll be working!

- Find some time.

- What about you?

I'll take yours. Here.

Bye, guys.

5Y9, Sir!

Hey, stop there.

Cleiton wants to talk to you.

I can't. I have to get the bus.

- We'll take care of the bus.

- Come with us.

Cleiton wants to run

something by you.

He wants to talk to you,

he has some CDs he wants to give you.

Come with us, it's quick.

We'll show you the way.

Hurry up, mate.

All good?

Wait a minute.

Come on in, teacher.

Make yourself comfortable.

I'll hold this for you. I got it.

Come on in.

You're home, teacher.

Hi, boss.

Here's the teacher.

Welcome, teacher.

- Are they treating you well?

- Of course, boss.

We really appreciate

your work in our community.

It's my daughter's birthday next month.

Carolina.

She'll be 15.

A very important age

for any woman.

My wife wants live music.

When Mrs. Grazi wants something...

She wants waltz, teacher.

- Which waltz?

- The gas company one.

What? That one...

I'd like you to play.

A month isn't enough time.

There's only one problem.

One of my students can't rehearse

because of a problem with the gangs

and without him the presentation

wouldn't be perfect.

- What's his name?

- VR.

Just a minute.

Make yourself comfortable, teacher.

Have a seat.

OK, then.

Thanks.

The boys borrowed 1O grand

to set up the cloning scheme.

Skeleton said he'll drop it to 7

if they play.

You'll have to play really well, mate!

Wait! What's going on, guys?

What's the matter?

Are you sleeping, Anisio?

- No.

- But look at you!

- I'm tired, sir.

- My foot!

Come on,

we have to touch the audience.

So, stop dragging your heels.

This is a waltz,

we have to play it more intensely.

Let's cheer up. Wake up!

Be strong, guys.

That's it. Much better!

Hi, girls.

I heard the news.

Laerte...

A drug dealer's party?

I'm responsible for this school.

What if they write

a newspaper article about it?

"Students play in drug dealer's party."

I know, but what could I do, Alzira?

- What am I going to do?

- Do what you have got to do.

Do what you have got to do.

I can't be responsible for this.

It's your responsibility.

If something happens

to the instruments or the kids,

it'll be your responsibility.

By the way, I know nothing about it.

We never had this talk.

The boy's here, Skeleton!

Lucky for you,

it's my goddaughter's birthday

and I really respect Cleito.

If not, I'd waste you

and the other two smartarses.

Guys, let's sing Happy B/Hhday.

Biro-Biro, get the cake.

Come on, Cleiton!

f you keep playing for time,

I'll handle this myself.

Hey, Cleito.

Hey, sir. Just chilling there?

I'm thinking about the audition.

What audition?

OSESP is hiring a Head of Strings

and I'm going to audition.

What if you pass?

Then there'll be

a lot of rehearsals and trips.

So, if you pass,

you'll be done with us?

Is that it?

No way.

Soon you'll have another teacher.

You're very talented.

You have to perfect

your technique somewhere else.

We'll keep in touch.

Keep in touch? My arse!

You don't care about anyone!

What about our concert?

I left my parents' house

because I believed you.

You're just another guy

who'll leave us hanging.

Samuel!

Samuel! Let's go!

Let's go!

What now?

Relax. Take it easy.

Pull over!

- What the f***!

- It's a stolen motorcycle.

He'll get us.

Pull over, VR.

Stop, VR.

Hit the gas!

Go, go!

Move!

We're f***ing home!

Go, Corinthians!

Are you f***ing crazy?

Do you want to kill me?

- Chill out, sh*t's crazy.

- We almost f***ing died.

I'm a f***ing pilot.

Stop, I'm getting off. Stop!

I'll stop when we get home.

Chill out.

Speed up! Go, go, go!

Stop. man!

You could out the atmosphere

with a knife here in Heliopolis.

It's the fourth clash against

the police in two months.

Around 800 people closed

Estrada das Lgrimas this evening.

The situation is very tense.

The population's built barricades

and set fire to many buses.

The uproafs reason is the death

of minor Samuel Alves da Silva,

a high school student

shot during a police chase.

Sergeant Paiva claims the boys

exchanged gunfire with the police.

Get out of here!

The boys were innocent, damn it!

You shot them!

Shoot me, f***!

I need to get in there.

You rats!

I need to get in there,

I know the boys who...

Go home. Leave!

I know that boy over there.

Go the f*** away!

Nobody needs you here!

Get out of here!

These are the slums, it's all ours!

You cowards, f***ing murderers.

You killed the boy!

Nobody wants you here!

Nobody needs you here!

Beat it! F*** you! Beat it!

You killed the boy!

Candidate 7 is onstage.

- Hi, Dad.

- H/', kid.

Tell mum to set up the party

because her son

is the new Head of Strings

of Brazil's most important orchestra.

I can't believe it, kid!

- You did it.

- Yes.

You can't stay with us

until the concert for the NGO?

I can't.

Are you sure that...

We can change the schedule.

Do you want me

to talk to the kids?

No.

I have to do it myself.

Is everything OK?

I want to talk to you.

Sometimes I feel like

there's a beast in here,

a f***ing heartache.

Then I pick up the violin...

and it gets a little better.

Calm down.

Calm down.

Have you seen the other guys?

We've been rehearsing

for the NGO's concert.

It'll be a tribute to Samuel.

- What are you playing?

- Vivaldi and Bach.

They were his favourites.

Bach is difficult.

You won't have the time

to rehearse that.

That's why I'm here,

to ask for your help.

I can't miss my rehearsals,

I'm on probation period.

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Samuel was on my pillion.

He asked me to stop,

but I didn't.

Stop, stop!

This passage isn't steady enough,

Anisio. Try again.

It can get better, guys.

- Finally, sir!

- You can sit down.

Let's pick up where we left off.

Go!

Go, Samuel!

- Good evening.

- Good evening.

22 seats for us, please.
