Verdades verdaderas, la vida de Estela

What are you doing here?

And it ever snow here?

No, it doesn't!

And is it ever gonna snow?

No.

Never, ever?

Never, ever, at all.

The kids have come

to play with you, they're having their

milk, let's go.

Yes, let's go.

Sometimes they ask me how I can love

someone so much without knowing him,

without knowing what he feels, when he

laughs, why he suffers.

I try to imagine your face;

I try on mouths, eyes, gestures.

I think that you can be walking right

next to me on the street, watching the

same TV show or listening to the same

song.

That day, there were no further doubts.

You are somewhere!

You were born on June 26, 1978, your

name has been Guido for 32 years and I

miss you...

TRUE TRUTHS. Estela's life

Headquarters of Grandmothers of the Plaza

de Mayo Association, Buenos Aires 2009

Let's go...

Come on. Yummy!

Come on.

Are we ready? Here, boy, you're younger;

you take care of it...

You evil kid, you're leaving! You're

leaving us!

Hey, I have the right to take a

vacation; I deserve it, don't I?

OK, he's not going to Siberia. Bring

salami before coming!

Exactly, it's good for one's cholesterol

Do I have something here?

I am looking great! Soon I'll go under

the knife for a complete makeover, I'll

meet a young man, you'll see.

What do you think?

There's something,

There's old age, Teresa!

Would you pass the stapler,

I'll fix it...

If she doesn't have a man, she's

not happy...

But you look like girls, you look great!

Come on!

The fact that there is no information

does not mean that the trial is

suspended.

Shush, here comes the Headmistress.

That's right, silence means that the

Grandmothers are working.

No, they are not celebrating that

here... all right, all right, goodbye,

dear, happy New Year.

Stop it! You have nothing there.

Shall we toast or what?

Cheers, cheers, happy New Year!

Happy new year for everyone!

Dear Guido...

No, you may not.

Just thank you then.

How many times are you gonna toast?

Look at this last bit, it'd be a pity.

Just a little bit, a little bit

And how was your interview? They kept

you there for like 3 hours.

It lasted for ages! There are people who

think that the Grandmothers are getting

more politicized!

Who thinks that?

I ask. Do you think that?

And the

answer is no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no.

Ok, then, and then we started

talking, but it was long, very long.

Are you gonna drive to Ranchos

like that?

Why not, eh?

Why don't you leave with

Claudia, too?

I'm OK here.

This one will be our year, you'll see.

Nothing... I think the same every year.

It will happen someday, right?

Of course it will.

Mi grandma makes an amazing

vitello tonnato.

Really?

I'll bring you some in a Tupper.

Please do, because last year...

No, no, no, no.

See you next year! I cease to exist

for 20 days, is that clear?

Do it while you can.

OK, and you guys, behave. Get drunk but

with moderation, all right?

And turn off

her lights or she'll stay until the Magi

come.

I can't believe that

woman, for the love of God!

Bye.

Bye, Abelito.

Have a nice trip!

Hi.

Hi, err...

How can we help you?

Well, er...

Oh, oh, all right.

You know, I called a washing machine

repairman and again, he hasn't come, but

a week ago...

Was it this one?

Yeah, that one.

That wine is so tasty.

Mom, mother, but...

I'll get one for you.

Sit down, mom, I'm OK.

Sit down, mom. I'm OK but... my coffee.

You took my coffee. She's taking, she's

taking my coffee. Mom!

What time are you leaving, guys?

We must be there at 12.30, tops.

Remo, would you open this?

Granny, this is so tasty!

Mom, no, no, no. He said a kilo a month

not all kilos in a single week.

But this girl is thin, she's skinny!

Show her the picture of the baby, look.

The picture of the baby

Yeah, it's the ultrasonography.

Look, look.

Oh.

Let's see.

Not the 3D, the 4D, that one.

(He murmurs.)

This is the 4D one.

That one, look. Aw.

Let's see, give it to me, give it to me.

And have you thought of a name yet?

Aw, he looks like his father.

Ema?

Ema? Luca.

Luca? No, not Luca

So?

Is it bent or the ground has moved?

Where is it bent?

Get off, get off me!

Dad, isn't it true

that you're buying me a guitar?

What?

See? You moron.

You promised!

Did you really say that?

Is it bent?

Why is he getting a guitar?

You gave your word, dad!

Then, I'm getting my racquet!

OK, if you pass your tests, we'll see

You'll see? You can't just go back on

a promise!

Give up, Tano. Give up. You cannot argue

with Perry Mason!

It looks nice, doesn't it?

Bent.

OK, I gotta go, bye.

Bye.

You're going to the birthday party in

those clothes?

Don't worry, I'm already married.

Exactly.

Do you need a ride?

No, I'm OK.

Where are the tartan trousers

I made you?

I'm gone!

Nice... but bent.

Sweet, you're gonna get covered in

feathers at the Gualeguaychu carnival.

You have no idea! Gualeguaychu is

amazing.

Estela, mom.

What are you thinking

about? Where are you?

Come on. It's

almost 12. We're all here. Come on, go

play the granny, will you?

Hey, don't be like that!

Like what? Like you, that's who

I take after.

Yeah, yeah. Come on, let's go.

You were born on June 26

I miss you...

La Plata city, 1975

Hold this.

It's me.

You can already save this.

This?

Long live Evita!

The enemy, in order to prevent students

from scrutinizing the situation

You go away.

Let him stay, go on.

The enemy, in order to prevent students

from scrutinizing the situation and

organizing themselves, sets a repressive

apparatus at school: It is forbidden to

get organized and do politics.

Did you write this?

What's the difference? Go on.

- Hi, Laura, you're back.

- Yes.

All alone?

Yes, alone.

Hide that magazine better if you don't

want me to see it.

They don't read the papers. They only

read that.

What's the matter with you? Did you also

turn into a gorilla?

Hey!

A gorilla, yes.

This is a part of a fight against a

government that plays with the Peronist

football shirt but is antipopular, dad!

All right, and who appointed Isabel?

Pern was manipulated at will, dad!

Ok, stop the Pern thing!

What did I tell you? What did I

tell you?

You could read them before getting

angry, couldn't you?

Why don't you give them to your

teachers?

To my teachers? What for?

There are people who are not interested

in doing politics but in other things.

Well, if you don't deal with politics,

politics deal with you, right?

Aw, Kibo for president! See?

He's learning!

Learning? Learning what? Learning to

repeat things like a parrot? I hope you

have learned things just as well for

your exam tomorrow.

Hi. Is everything all right?

Everything's all right.

What is all that mud?

Take off your shoes, please!

Are you staying for dinner, Laura?

No, they're waiting for me.

OK, you go and study! Now!

And that magazine... out of the house.
