BASED ON A TRUE STORY

00:00:33,687 --> 00:00:36,896
NETFLIX PRESENTS

3
00:00:56,396 --> 00:00:58,979
STRASBOURG

4
00:00:59,062 --> 00:01:04,271
NOVEMBER 1968

5
00:02:10,937 --> 00:02:11,771
Mr. Gary.

6
00:02:18,396 --> 00:02:23,021
That man looks really ill. Who is he?
Wasn't he here yesterday as well?

7
00:02:23,104 --> 00:02:26,646
He's been here all week.
He's an Italian engineer.

8
00:02:26,729 --> 00:02:29,354
That weird car outside, is that his?

9
00:02:29,437 --> 00:02:30,812
Yes, it is.

10
00:02:30,896 --> 00:02:35,396
He desperately wants you
to read a file he's brought.

11
00:02:35,479 --> 00:02:37,312
I didn't want to bother you with it.

12
00:02:37,854 --> 00:02:42,229
Did you tell him we deal with disputes
between sovereign states?

13
00:02:42,312 --> 00:02:44,437
He says he's a head of state,

14
00:02:44,521 --> 00:02:48,146
and that he won't leave
until I give you the file.

15
00:02:49,312 --> 00:02:52,271
He's a bit crazy but also very determined.

16
00:02:52,354 --> 00:02:53,937
This is what we're going to do.

17
00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:58,437
Hand me the file,
and make it look like a big deal.

18
00:03:06,312 --> 00:03:08,354
Here's the file I told you about.

19
00:03:08,437 --> 00:03:10,562
Thank you.

20
00:03:10,646 --> 00:03:13,479
I'll read it very carefully.

21
00:03:13,562 --> 00:03:15,812
Very well. Thank you, sir. Goodbye.

22
00:04:08,687 --> 00:04:09,854
Where is he?

23
00:04:09,937 --> 00:04:13,021
-Who?
-The mad man with pneumonia.

24
00:04:13,104 --> 00:04:15,062
-I managed to get rid of him.
-No!

25
00:04:15,646 --> 00:04:18,062
Bring him to my office.
I need to talk to him.

26
00:04:18,146 --> 00:04:20,187
Come on, quick!

27
00:04:24,062 --> 00:04:26,896
Mr. Rosa, I have to ask you
if you know what day it is

28
00:04:26,979 --> 00:04:28,729
and where you are.

29
00:04:28,812 --> 00:04:31,354
November 10th, 1968,

30
00:04:32,104 --> 00:04:34,271
Strasbourg, Council of Europe.

31
00:04:35,854 --> 00:04:39,271
And what can the Council of Europe
do for you, Mr. Rosa?

32
00:04:39,937 --> 00:04:41,312
Save my island.

33
00:04:41,854 --> 00:04:43,271
Did you buy an island?

34
00:04:43,854 --> 00:04:45,062
No, I made it.

35
00:04:46,312 --> 00:04:47,396
He created an island.

36
00:04:48,187 --> 00:04:50,771
How many days did it take you
to create this island?

37
00:04:50,854 --> 00:04:54,104
Please, don't say six,
that would be an incredible coincidence.

38
00:04:54,187 --> 00:04:56,771
No, it wasn't six days.
It took me several months.

39
00:04:56,854 --> 00:04:59,479
So you own an island
that you have created.

40
00:04:59,562 --> 00:05:05,354
No, I didn't say that.
I'm an engineer. I simply built it, then…

41
00:05:06,562 --> 00:05:08,437
we created the world on the island…

42
00:05:08,521 --> 00:05:11,437
I should just leave.
This man's in a confused state.

43
00:05:11,521 --> 00:05:13,562
He needs help but clearly not from us.

44
00:05:13,646 --> 00:05:16,937
I need help from the European Council.
That's why I'm here.

45
00:05:17,021 --> 00:05:18,604
Keep calm, Mr. Rosa.

46
00:05:18,687 --> 00:05:21,354
I can't keep calm.
They're going to destroy everything.

47
00:05:22,021 --> 00:05:25,479
Is this the island that you built?

48
00:05:28,021 --> 00:05:31,354
Yes, like I said, I'm an engineer.

49
00:05:32,937 --> 00:05:38,521
Doctor, my ass! Piss off!

50
00:05:38,604 --> 00:05:42,604
ONE YEAR EARLIER

51
00:05:42,687 --> 00:05:45,854
Doctor, my ass! Piss off!

52
00:05:45,937 --> 00:05:51,271
Doctor, my ass! Piss off!

53
00:05:51,354 --> 00:05:53,521
If I may, we're already doctors.

54
00:05:53,604 --> 00:05:56,854
We've passed our exam,
so now we're engineers not--

55
00:05:56,937 --> 00:06:01,896
Engineer, my ass! Piss off!

56
00:06:01,979 --> 00:06:03,396
What the hell are you doing?

57
00:06:06,562 --> 00:06:08,854
Forfeit!

58
00:06:08,937 --> 00:06:11,979
What forfeit?
I was just talking… It's not fair!

59
00:06:12,062 --> 00:06:14,521
Guys, he's right.
If you challenge a professional--

60
00:06:14,604 --> 00:06:17,021
-You stole my glass!
-Forfeit!

61
00:06:17,104 --> 00:06:19,479
What? I was talking
about the engineer thing.

62
00:06:19,562 --> 00:06:23,146
They insist.
I'd say a fair forfeit could be…

63
00:06:23,812 --> 00:06:25,896
to have him…

64
00:06:25,979 --> 00:06:28,812
make a complete ass of himself!

65
00:06:30,979 --> 00:06:33,187
-But these aren't the rules…
-Ass of himself!

66
00:06:33,271 --> 00:06:35,354
-I didn't lose!
-Ass of himself!

67
00:06:35,437 --> 00:06:37,896
So, the first girl that walks in,

68
00:06:37,979 --> 00:06:40,812
he must chat her up,
and when she least expects it,

69
00:06:40,896 --> 00:06:43,229
he kisses her on her lips!

70
00:06:44,937 --> 00:06:45,812
Shit!

71
00:06:46,896 --> 00:06:48,021
Hi.

72
00:06:48,104 --> 00:06:49,104
How's it going?

73
00:06:51,146 --> 00:06:52,229
It's good to see you.

74
00:06:53,146 --> 00:06:54,146
I'll be right there.

75
00:06:54,729 --> 00:06:56,896
-Yes.
-Kiss!

76
00:06:56,979 --> 00:06:58,271
Well, it's…

77
00:06:58,354 --> 00:07:01,312
It's just that today
we took our state exam.

78
00:07:02,479 --> 00:07:04,521
I'm now officially an engineer.

79
00:07:04,604 --> 00:07:07,437
-Congratulations!
-Thanks.

80
00:07:07,521 --> 00:07:09,687
Guys, we can't do the kiss thing.

81
00:07:09,771 --> 00:07:11,354
We can't do that…

82
00:07:12,021 --> 00:07:15,354
They want me to kiss you,
because I lost a drinking game.

83
00:07:15,437 --> 00:07:17,312
-Sure.
-I didn't even lose.

84
00:07:17,396 --> 00:07:19,354
They're just insisting because…

85
00:07:19,937 --> 00:07:22,854
Guys. We can't do that.
We just can't do that.

86
00:07:22,937 --> 00:07:24,562
Guys, it's not gonna happen.

87
00:07:24,646 --> 00:07:27,271
Right, there's no point
that they keep saying…

88
00:07:27,354 --> 00:07:29,354
We just can't do that, you know…

89
00:07:29,437 --> 00:07:30,312
You look good.

90
00:07:32,604 --> 00:07:34,562
You look very good.

91
00:07:34,646 --> 00:07:35,479
Honestly.

92
00:07:36,187 --> 00:07:37,021
Thanks.

93
00:07:39,146 --> 00:07:40,646
Fancy a drink?

94
00:07:43,687 --> 00:07:44,937
Well, anyway…

95
00:07:45,021 --> 00:07:48,229
It's a funny coincidence
running into each other here--

96
00:07:48,312 --> 00:07:50,771
Not really. Bologna isn't a big town.

97
00:07:51,687 --> 00:07:52,854
Yeah, sure.

98
00:07:54,229 --> 00:07:56,062
Last time we saw each other,

99
00:07:57,104 --> 00:07:59,354
you were seeing that guy, that--

100
00:07:59,437 --> 00:08:01,354
-Carlo.
-Carlo, that's right.

101
00:08:01,437 --> 00:08:03,979
Carlo.

102
00:08:05,146 --> 00:08:06,229
He's not here, is he?

103
00:08:07,062 --> 00:08:09,062
We've been having problems lately.

104
00:08:11,354 --> 00:08:12,729
I'm sorry to hear that.

105
00:08:13,396 --> 00:08:14,854
No, you're not.

106
00:08:14,937 --> 00:08:17,729
Come on, it was clear that you were…

107
00:08:17,812 --> 00:08:21,146
Well, that your relationship was like…

108
00:08:21,229 --> 00:08:22,521
just a temporary one.

109
00:08:22,604 --> 00:08:24,812
How long have you been together?
A few months?

110
00:08:24,896 --> 00:08:25,729
Three years.

111
00:08:25,812 --> 00:08:26,729
Three years?

112
00:08:27,812 --> 00:08:29,479
That's almost as long as we were.

113
00:08:31,271 --> 00:08:32,771
I guess your parents like him.

114
00:08:33,687 --> 00:08:36,021
-Why are you having problems?
-My parents liked you.

115
00:08:36,104 --> 00:08:37,979
Your dad hated me. You didn't answer me.

116
00:08:38,062 --> 00:08:40,021
Well, maybe he hated you a bit, but…

117
00:08:40,104 --> 00:08:43,146
not much considering
he nearly lost his sight

118
00:08:43,229 --> 00:08:46,312
when you blew up his TV
during the Italy vs. Russia match.

119
00:08:46,396 --> 00:08:48,437
And you never apologized to me or him.

120
00:08:48,521 --> 00:08:51,187
It imploded,
and you're still not answering.

121
00:08:51,271 --> 00:08:54,896
We fell out because after three years,
he believes we should get married.

122
00:08:54,979 --> 00:08:56,896
-Imploded?
-I knew there was something.

123
00:08:56,979 --> 00:08:59,229
Get married? Be careful about marriage.

124
00:08:59,312 --> 00:09:00,854
He's not the right man.

125
00:09:00,937 --> 00:09:03,937
How do you know if you don't know him?
Now you're not answering.

126
00:09:04,021 --> 00:09:06,854
The cathode tube implodes,
it doesn't explode.

127
00:09:06,937 --> 00:09:08,437
Electrons flow through the vacuum.

128
00:09:08,521 --> 00:09:11,687
And I told your father a thousand times
to sit further away.

129
00:09:11,771 --> 00:09:15,062
I just wanted him to enjoy
the football match. Those three lines--

130
00:09:15,146 --> 00:09:16,646
Sorry, Giorgio. It's eleven o'clock…

131
00:09:16,729 --> 00:09:18,604
How can you watch a match with lines?

132
00:09:18,687 --> 00:09:21,271
-I have to go. I've got a class tomorrow.
-Wait.

133
00:09:21,854 --> 00:09:23,104
I'll drive you home.

134
00:09:25,271 --> 00:09:26,979
Since when do you have a car?

135
00:09:39,812 --> 00:09:41,729
Excuse the interior.

136
00:09:42,437 --> 00:09:44,771
I built this car for the engineering exam.

137
00:09:45,937 --> 00:09:48,562
I thought it'd be interesting
to make something practical.

138
00:09:48,646 --> 00:09:52,021
And I focused a bit more
on the engine than the interior.

139
00:09:52,896 --> 00:09:56,854
To speed things up,
I used my grandma's sofa as seats.

140
00:09:56,937 --> 00:09:58,437
She's dead now anyway.

141
00:09:58,521 --> 00:10:00,937
-Grandma Margherita is dead?
-Yes, two months ago.

142
00:10:01,021 --> 00:10:04,687
-She couldn't take our breaking up.
-We split up three years ago. Come on.

143
00:10:04,771 --> 00:10:08,521
Yes, it was a slow decline.
She deteriorated slowly.

144
00:10:08,604 --> 00:10:11,812
-Giorgio…
-Can you remind me why we split up?

145
00:10:13,146 --> 00:10:15,896
Because being with you is too risky.

146
00:10:15,979 --> 00:10:19,312
You have to take risks
if you want to try and change the world.

147
00:10:19,396 --> 00:10:22,687
You're hardly changing the world
getting rid of three lines on a TV.

148
00:10:26,437 --> 00:10:28,521
-It's beautiful, you know?
-What is?

149
00:10:29,146 --> 00:10:31,187
-The car.
-Thank you!

150
00:10:31,812 --> 00:10:34,771
It's weird, but…

151
00:10:35,771 --> 00:10:39,521
you built a car by yourself,
and it works. It runs!

152
00:10:39,604 --> 00:10:41,812
It might not be Diabolik's Jaguar but--

153
00:10:41,896 --> 00:10:43,896
Whose Jaguar did you say?

154
00:10:45,104 --> 00:10:46,104
Diabolik's.

155
00:10:46,771 --> 00:10:48,771
-Diabolik, The King of Terror.
-Who's he?

156
00:10:48,854 --> 00:10:50,646
The new comic everyone's talking about!

157
00:10:50,729 --> 00:10:53,437
-Never heard of it, honestly.
-It's great.

158
00:10:53,521 --> 00:10:56,729
Basically, it's about
this very clever thief

159
00:10:57,396 --> 00:11:01,479
who always wears… who always wears a mask…

160
00:11:02,604 --> 00:11:05,354
-They want us.
-Do they? Okay, let's pull over.

161
00:11:25,271 --> 00:11:26,104
Hello.

162
00:11:27,687 --> 00:11:28,521
Yes.

163
00:11:29,729 --> 00:11:31,521
-Good evening.
-Evening.

164
00:11:31,604 --> 00:11:35,646
Is there a reason why
this vehicle has no license plate?

165
00:11:35,729 --> 00:11:39,312
Because I didn't buy this vehicle.
I actually built it.

166
00:11:39,396 --> 00:11:41,271
This car has no license plate?

167
00:11:41,354 --> 00:11:43,812
To be honest,
I didn't think about that at all.

168
00:11:43,896 --> 00:11:46,896
All right, if you want to be funny,
step outside, please.

169
00:11:46,979 --> 00:11:51,437
Driving license and registration.
Salvatore, check their criminal records.

170
00:11:54,687 --> 00:11:55,562
And here we are.

171
00:11:57,812 --> 00:11:59,062
Let me explain.

172
00:11:59,146 --> 00:12:03,437
I built this car with my own hands,
because I'm an engineer.

173
00:12:03,521 --> 00:12:05,937
So it's the same principle
as with the license plate.

174
00:12:06,021 --> 00:12:09,354
I don't have a registration
nor driving license--

175
00:12:09,437 --> 00:12:12,104
You drove me around
without a driving license?

176
00:12:12,729 --> 00:12:15,271
-I drove you. I didn't force you, did I?
-Yes.

177
00:12:15,354 --> 00:12:17,146
-You insisted.
-I insisted?

178
00:12:17,229 --> 00:12:20,396
I'd have never driven you around Bologna
in a car with no plate,

179
00:12:20,479 --> 00:12:22,062
no driving license, half-drunk--

180
00:12:22,146 --> 00:12:23,521
Did you say "drunk"?

181
00:12:23,604 --> 00:12:24,771
No, I'm not drunk.

182
00:12:24,854 --> 00:12:27,354
I lost a drinking game.
Actually, I didn't lose--

183
00:12:27,437 --> 00:12:29,979
Salvatore, so do these two
have criminal records?

184
00:12:30,062 --> 00:12:33,021
I'm a lawyer, address us politely.
We're not "these two," thanks.

185
00:12:33,104 --> 00:12:36,312
That's right. She's my lawyer.

186
00:12:36,396 --> 00:12:37,354
So let's keep calm.

187
00:12:37,437 --> 00:12:41,396
Giorgio, I'm not your lawyer.
I'm an international law associate.

188
00:12:41,479 --> 00:12:44,062
Bummer. Bloody useless international law…

189
00:12:44,146 --> 00:12:45,396
Nothing on the lady.

190
00:12:45,479 --> 00:12:48,812
-But Rosa has a criminal record.
-What about Rosa?

191
00:12:48,896 --> 00:12:51,812
That's not a criminal record,
it's a flying ban.

192
00:12:51,896 --> 00:12:53,771
They're two totally different things.

193
00:12:53,854 --> 00:12:57,021
And as per the judge's order,
I disassembled the biplane.

194
00:12:57,104 --> 00:12:59,729
I worked two summers
to pay for those street lights.

195
00:12:59,812 --> 00:13:02,104
-Please…
-You flew an unregistered plane?

196
00:13:02,187 --> 00:13:06,187
Yes, I did. What's with this fixation
with registering everything?

197
00:13:06,271 --> 00:13:09,562
Shall we also put a plate
on the bottom of each bird that's flying

198
00:13:09,646 --> 00:13:10,812
in Piazza Maggiore?

199
00:13:10,896 --> 00:13:14,771
Salvatore, his car's in the way.
Move it, then call the tow truck.

200
00:13:15,479 --> 00:13:17,896
You don't need to. Salvatore, I can do it.

201
00:13:17,979 --> 00:13:20,771
You'll break it.
You don't know how to start it.

202
00:13:20,854 --> 00:13:23,937
Stand back.
This vehicle is being impounded.

203
00:13:24,021 --> 00:13:27,229
Impounded?
You must be joking. Salvatore, wait!

204
00:13:27,312 --> 00:13:30,646
-Salvatore, stop. You'll break it!
-Stand back.

205
00:13:30,729 --> 00:13:32,687
-Didn't you hear me?
-You'll break it.

206
00:13:32,771 --> 00:13:34,396
-Listen!
-I'm listening!

207
00:13:34,479 --> 00:13:35,687
-Stop!
-Don't touch him.

208
00:13:35,771 --> 00:13:39,104
-He's touching everything.
-Keep your hands down!

209
00:14:04,062 --> 00:14:06,479
There was no need for you to come.

210
00:14:06,562 --> 00:14:10,687
They didn't need to wake you up for that.
I was handling it just fine.

211
00:14:10,771 --> 00:14:14,437
The judge was going to convict you
because you're a repeat offender.

212
00:14:14,521 --> 00:14:16,021
They're different things.

213
00:14:16,104 --> 00:14:19,229
This one happened on the ground,
the other one was air-related.

214
00:14:19,312 --> 00:14:23,062
Why don't you just try, Giorgio?

215
00:14:23,146 --> 00:14:25,021
-Try what?
-To be normal.

216
00:14:26,187 --> 00:14:28,937
You'd be happier. Look at yourself now.

217
00:14:29,021 --> 00:14:32,521
What are you talking about?
Listen to yourself, "Be normal"…

218
00:14:32,604 --> 00:14:36,396
I managed to meet Battistini
and showed him the blueprints of your car.

219
00:14:36,479 --> 00:14:39,146
He was so impressed,
he wants you on his team of engineers.

220
00:14:39,229 --> 00:14:42,479
Dad, don't show my stuff to people.
It's private.

221
00:14:42,562 --> 00:14:44,896
It's a sought-after position.
You should be glad.

222
00:14:46,229 --> 00:14:49,479
Yes, I know, Dad. Thanks.

223
00:14:50,979 --> 00:14:53,437
Could you please pull over?
I want to get out.

224
00:14:53,521 --> 00:14:55,562
-Why don't you come home?
-I want to get out.

225
00:14:55,646 --> 00:14:58,396
Just stop the car and let me out!

226
00:14:59,812 --> 00:15:02,021
Where are you going now?

227
00:15:04,271 --> 00:15:08,604
Called to answer charges
for crimes against humanity,

228
00:15:08,687 --> 00:15:11,271
the Nazis appealed to the positive law,

229
00:15:11,979 --> 00:15:16,646
alluding to their famous phrase,
"We were just following orders."

230
00:15:16,729 --> 00:15:19,521
In other words, "We were obeying the law,"

231
00:15:19,604 --> 00:15:23,021
which, no matter how brutal,
was still the law.

232
00:15:23,104 --> 00:15:25,979
To this avoidance of responsibility,

233
00:15:26,062 --> 00:15:29,812
the judges would respond
by appealing to natural law.

234
00:15:30,396 --> 00:15:34,687
Natural law is
that innate sense of justice

235
00:15:34,771 --> 00:15:39,521
which exists in each one of us
reminding us that it's more important…

236
00:15:39,604 --> 00:15:40,521
Can you move over?

237
00:15:40,604 --> 00:15:42,896
…to prioritize what is right
over the rules,

238
00:15:42,979 --> 00:15:45,604
what is right over the law.

239
00:15:45,687 --> 00:15:47,771
Because laws change,

240
00:15:47,854 --> 00:15:49,979
while what is right will always be right.

241
00:15:54,812 --> 00:15:56,062
And this,

242
00:15:57,229 --> 00:16:00,937
doesn't mean that obeying the law
is not important,

243
00:16:01,021 --> 00:16:03,937
on the contrary, it's extremely important.

244
00:16:04,021 --> 00:16:06,896
Especially the driving laws,
the traffic codes,

245
00:16:06,979 --> 00:16:08,354
even license plates are important.

246
00:16:08,437 --> 00:16:10,437
Right. That's it for today.

247
00:16:10,521 --> 00:16:13,854
I'll see you next week.
Chapter three, The Tokyo Trial.

248
00:16:13,937 --> 00:16:16,146
Professor,
the class only lasted ten minutes.

249
00:16:16,229 --> 00:16:19,979
Because these are complex concepts
which take time to comprehend,

250
00:16:20,062 --> 00:16:23,687
especially for you, Nicolini,
who's already failed three times.

251
00:16:23,771 --> 00:16:25,021
You're coming with me.

252
00:16:26,646 --> 00:16:27,521
Sorry.

253
00:16:28,104 --> 00:16:29,979
Excuse me. Sorry.

254
00:16:32,646 --> 00:16:34,021
Do you know what these are?

255
00:16:34,562 --> 00:16:36,229
Blue fingertips?

256
00:16:36,312 --> 00:16:38,521
They took my fingerprints, Giorgio.

257
00:16:38,604 --> 00:16:40,979
-They already had mine.
-My fingerprints!

258
00:16:41,062 --> 00:16:43,687
I'm applying for tenure in six months.

259
00:16:43,771 --> 00:16:46,104
I can't take the exam
if I have a criminal record.

260
00:16:46,187 --> 00:16:50,312
The evening didn't end well,
that's why I'm here, to apologize.

261
00:16:50,396 --> 00:16:52,479
Didn't end well? We were arrested!

262
00:16:52,562 --> 00:16:55,187
Okay, it ended badly then. A tragedy.

263
00:16:55,937 --> 00:16:57,896
But… what happened before that…

264
00:16:58,979 --> 00:16:59,979
can't be ignored.

265
00:17:00,062 --> 00:17:03,271
-Giorgio, you live in your own world.
-Don't you like it?

266
00:17:03,354 --> 00:17:06,021
No, I don't,
because it ends with getting arrested.

267
00:17:06,604 --> 00:17:10,437
Because you live in your own world,
but this world isn't all yours!

268
00:17:10,521 --> 00:17:13,312
-You didn't build it like your car!
-Then maybe I should.

269
00:17:13,896 --> 00:17:14,979
Should what?

270
00:17:15,062 --> 00:17:16,979
Build my own world.

271
00:17:17,062 --> 00:17:18,729
Giorgio, it was a metaphor.

272
00:17:18,812 --> 00:17:21,229
-Would you come?
-You can't build a world!

273
00:17:21,312 --> 00:17:23,021
-Maybe I can--
-No, you can't!

274
00:17:24,396 --> 00:17:27,812
Because you're not a genius,
even though you think you are!

275
00:17:28,896 --> 00:17:32,646
You build toys
that keep getting you arrested.

276
00:17:33,729 --> 00:17:36,437
And for a second, I nearly forgot that.

277
00:17:38,021 --> 00:17:39,021
Goodbye, Giorgio.

278
00:18:04,854 --> 00:18:08,562
THREE MONTHS LATER

279
00:19:01,146 --> 00:19:02,604
One second 40.

280
00:19:02,687 --> 00:19:04,979
One second 40 on the fourth lap?

281
00:19:05,062 --> 00:19:07,021
-Are you sure?
-Yes, sir.

282
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:08,812
What shitty tires did we put on?

283
00:19:08,896 --> 00:19:11,021
Luca, we knew it was risky.

284
00:19:11,104 --> 00:19:14,104
That's not a risk. That's goddamn suicide!

285
00:19:14,187 --> 00:19:15,646
We must tell Bruno.

286
00:19:15,729 --> 00:19:18,562
Change the strategy, go flat-out,
either it works or it doesn't.

287
00:19:18,646 --> 00:19:20,021
Flat-out from the fourth lap?

288
00:19:20,104 --> 00:19:22,729
Either that
or we get there half an hour later!

289
00:19:22,812 --> 00:19:25,729
Hey, go to corner seven
and show this to Bruno.

290
00:19:25,812 --> 00:19:28,896
What the hell are you waiting for?
Hurry up! Go!

291
00:19:28,979 --> 00:19:31,354
-Who the hell is that?
-He's the new guy.

292
00:19:31,437 --> 00:19:33,687
Battistini says he's a great engineer.

293
00:19:33,771 --> 00:19:36,687
He looks like a moron to me.

294
00:20:28,812 --> 00:20:34,312
OUR PLATFORMS, YOUR ENERGY, YOUR FREEDOM

295
00:21:21,646 --> 00:21:25,729
Sir, I swear we wouldn't even dream
of going anywhere near your safe.

296
00:21:25,812 --> 00:21:27,396
Angelo, I understand,

297
00:21:27,479 --> 00:21:31,312
but this is the third time this year
that money has gone missing

298
00:21:31,396 --> 00:21:32,729
and it's only February.

299
00:21:32,812 --> 00:21:34,646
Dad, don't worry about this.

300
00:21:35,521 --> 00:21:36,771
I'll deal with it.

301
00:21:37,896 --> 00:21:38,729
It's…

302
00:21:39,312 --> 00:21:42,729
impossible to describe the pain

303
00:21:43,437 --> 00:21:46,354
that you people, with your greed,

304
00:21:47,187 --> 00:21:50,729
have caused to this company,
to this family,

305
00:21:50,812 --> 00:21:52,771
and to this righteous man.

306
00:21:52,854 --> 00:21:55,896
This man who welcomed you
in your time of need.

307
00:21:55,979 --> 00:22:00,562
When you people,
dressed only in desperation,

308
00:22:00,646 --> 00:22:04,687
arrived here
from your remote and wild lands.

309
00:22:04,771 --> 00:22:06,937
And how did you repay him?

310
00:22:07,729 --> 00:22:10,604
By stealing from the hand that fed you.

311
00:22:11,521 --> 00:22:13,021
Mr. Maurizio,

312
00:22:13,104 --> 00:22:14,562
there's no proof it was us.

313
00:22:16,937 --> 00:22:17,771
Angelo.

314
00:22:18,687 --> 00:22:21,229
Angelo, how can you say
something like that?

315
00:22:21,812 --> 00:22:25,354
In the safe, there were
five bills of 50,000 lire.

316
00:22:25,437 --> 00:22:29,062
Now there are none,
and the only Calabrians here…

317
00:22:29,729 --> 00:22:32,437
are you guys. Or am I wrong?

318
00:22:32,521 --> 00:22:34,979
They've got some nerve…

319
00:22:35,062 --> 00:22:37,229
They're the only ones here, right?

320
00:22:44,479 --> 00:22:45,729
I have to go now,

321
00:22:45,812 --> 00:22:49,229
because we have a company to run,
even though…

322
00:22:49,812 --> 00:22:53,021
it'll be more challenging
from today because of you guys.

323
00:22:54,729 --> 00:22:56,104
So we're building a platform.

324
00:22:56,979 --> 00:22:58,479
We're making an island.

325
00:22:58,562 --> 00:23:00,687
Okay, I get it,
but in the shape of a platform.

326
00:23:00,771 --> 00:23:01,729
It's an island!

327
00:23:01,812 --> 00:23:04,937
Initially, I wanted to build
a real one with sand and everything.

328
00:23:05,021 --> 00:23:08,062
And I spent months trying to find a way.

329
00:23:08,146 --> 00:23:09,937
But it's impossible, Maurizio.

330
00:23:10,021 --> 00:23:11,396
But then…

331
00:23:11,479 --> 00:23:13,104
I saw the solution.

332
00:23:14,104 --> 00:23:15,521
An island made of steel.

333
00:23:16,021 --> 00:23:17,604
-Steel!
-Steel…

334
00:23:17,687 --> 00:23:22,062
Can you imagine? Our own island,
where we can do what the hell we want.

335
00:23:22,146 --> 00:23:24,521
Where we can live by our own rules.

336
00:23:24,604 --> 00:23:26,771
So I won't have to work
for my dad anymore?

337
00:23:26,854 --> 00:23:28,687
Of course not!

338
00:23:28,771 --> 00:23:31,354
Because I hate this shipyard.
Do you understand?

339
00:23:31,437 --> 00:23:33,646
I hate smelling the stink of it every day.

340
00:23:33,729 --> 00:23:36,854
The stink of the grease of the ships,
the gas, the Calabrians.

341
00:23:36,937 --> 00:23:39,437
Listen, do you think
we can have a bar too?

342
00:23:39,521 --> 00:23:41,812
A bar where we can drink
what the hell we want?

343
00:23:41,896 --> 00:23:43,187
Yes, of course.

344
00:23:43,271 --> 00:23:46,687
Well, I wouldn't make it
the main attraction, but yes.

345
00:23:46,771 --> 00:23:50,229
-Where do you want to build this island?
-This is the best part.

346
00:23:50,312 --> 00:23:52,729
Outside Italian territorial waters.

347
00:23:53,271 --> 00:23:55,271
Where nobody can bust our balls.

348
00:23:55,354 --> 00:23:56,854
And where is it? Is it far?

349
00:23:57,646 --> 00:23:58,771
Wherever we want.

350
00:23:59,271 --> 00:24:01,104
As long as it's six miles off the coast.

351
00:24:01,812 --> 00:24:03,146
I was thinking here,

352
00:24:04,021 --> 00:24:05,271
opposite Rimini.

353
00:24:05,354 --> 00:24:06,271
Perfect.

354
00:24:06,854 --> 00:24:07,937
Where do we start?

355
00:24:09,729 --> 00:24:12,104
We look at how they build platforms.

356
00:24:47,812 --> 00:24:49,187
So how do they do it?

357
00:24:49,271 --> 00:24:52,937
Pillars of 34 with reinforced
concrete foundations on the bedrock.

358
00:24:53,521 --> 00:24:57,146
-How big are the foundations?
-I don't know, they're big.

359
00:24:57,229 --> 00:25:00,771
-What do you mean? 90, 150?
-I don't know. I didn't measure them!

360
00:25:00,854 --> 00:25:02,104
You go next time.

361
00:25:02,187 --> 00:25:05,729
Come on, help me up.
Hurry, before someone calls security.

362
00:25:06,604 --> 00:25:10,271
Let's recap.
One underwater concrete injector.

363
00:25:10,354 --> 00:25:12,021
Then what? About 30 pillars?

364
00:25:12,104 --> 00:25:13,104
Yes, about that.

365
00:25:13,729 --> 00:25:15,646
Say we build them as thin as 90.

366
00:25:15,729 --> 00:25:18,604
Then we need to hire ten skilled workers.

367
00:25:18,687 --> 00:25:22,896
And even if we hire Calabrians,
no insurance, no payroll taxes,

368
00:25:22,979 --> 00:25:25,729
and we fire them
with a random excuse in the last week

369
00:25:25,812 --> 00:25:29,021
and we pay them nothing,
that's 100 million gone already.

370
00:25:29,104 --> 00:25:31,062
If we got rid of the concrete?

371
00:25:31,146 --> 00:25:33,854
We'd get down to 80,
but the problem is transportation.

372
00:25:33,937 --> 00:25:39,271
To move 30 pillars of 90 for six miles,
we'd need a cargo boat.

373
00:25:39,354 --> 00:25:42,729
If they were made of wood,
we could float them there.

374
00:25:43,687 --> 00:25:45,979
It can't be made of wood,
it has to be steel.

375
00:25:46,604 --> 00:25:48,854
I've been told steel doesn't float.

376
00:25:55,021 --> 00:25:55,854
Well…

377
00:25:56,604 --> 00:25:58,229
that ship's made of steel,

378
00:25:58,312 --> 00:26:01,312
and by some weird magic
that I've never understood,

379
00:26:02,021 --> 00:26:02,896
it does float.

380
00:26:11,687 --> 00:26:14,104
So steel doesn't float,

381
00:26:14,937 --> 00:26:16,812
but hollow steel does.

382
00:26:19,396 --> 00:26:22,896
With hollow pillars,
we solve the problem of transportation.

383
00:26:22,979 --> 00:26:26,604
I get it, but how can we build
a platform on hollow, empty pillars?

384
00:26:26,687 --> 00:26:28,146
I never said empty.

385
00:26:28,812 --> 00:26:30,646
Once they're in the right spot,

386
00:26:30,729 --> 00:26:32,229
we open up one end,

387
00:26:32,937 --> 00:26:34,021
and what happens?

388
00:26:34,104 --> 00:26:35,312
It fills with water,

389
00:26:36,604 --> 00:26:38,229
and it sinks to the bottom.

390
00:26:38,729 --> 00:26:40,896
We'll build the island
with filled pillars,

391
00:26:41,646 --> 00:26:42,979
but filled with water.

392
00:26:54,229 --> 00:26:56,187
I'll pay you back for the pillars.

393
00:26:56,271 --> 00:26:59,687
Don't worry.
For 700,000, I won't go hungry.

394
00:27:00,562 --> 00:27:01,771
What, 700,000 lire?

395
00:27:03,646 --> 00:27:05,437
Where did you get all that money?

396
00:27:05,521 --> 00:27:08,146
I usually steal it from my father's safe.

397
00:27:08,896 --> 00:27:12,312
-Doesn't he notice?
-Of course he does. It's 700,000 lire.

398
00:27:12,396 --> 00:27:15,187
I blame the Calabrians who work for him.

399
00:27:15,271 --> 00:27:17,771
He reports them, or he fires them.
I'm not sure.

400
00:27:17,854 --> 00:27:20,437
I think this is it, here.
Turn off the engine!

401
00:27:25,937 --> 00:27:26,812
Here we are.

402
00:27:27,854 --> 00:27:29,729
If my calculations are correct,

403
00:27:30,437 --> 00:27:31,854
from this point on,

404
00:27:32,437 --> 00:27:34,479
we are outside territorial waters.

405
00:27:35,687 --> 00:27:37,604
We're no longer in Italy, Maurizio.

406
00:27:38,812 --> 00:27:40,521
We're in international waters.

407
00:27:41,021 --> 00:27:43,312
No one's in charge here!

408
00:27:45,312 --> 00:27:48,146
Nobody can tell us what to do,

409
00:27:48,229 --> 00:27:51,396
what not to do,
and stuff like that, Maurizio.

410
00:27:52,104 --> 00:27:53,271
We're free!

411
00:27:53,854 --> 00:27:54,812
Maurizio!

412
00:27:55,854 --> 00:27:56,687
Maurizio.

413
00:27:58,062 --> 00:27:59,604
Hey, Maurizio.

414
00:28:00,896 --> 00:28:01,812
Listen…

415
00:28:02,396 --> 00:28:03,771
now comes the tricky part.

416
00:28:04,354 --> 00:28:06,812
-I know.
-We need to unplug the tubes.

417
00:28:07,479 --> 00:28:10,812
It's one thing doing it in a bathtub,
and quite another on the open sea.

418
00:28:10,896 --> 00:28:13,979
Remember, lift up the slider,

419
00:28:14,562 --> 00:28:16,396
and get away as quickly as you can.

420
00:28:16,479 --> 00:28:21,062
-I got it. You told me a million times!
-Because it's dangerous.

421
00:28:21,146 --> 00:28:24,562
Can't you smell the freedom?

422
00:28:25,354 --> 00:28:29,729
Not really, Maurizio.
I can only smell some cheap herbal liquor.

423
00:28:29,812 --> 00:28:31,812
You're already drunk at 8 a.m.?

424
00:28:31,896 --> 00:28:33,521
Did you think I could do this sober?

425
00:28:35,479 --> 00:28:36,729
I can't believe this.

426
00:28:38,479 --> 00:28:39,354
By the way,

427
00:28:40,146 --> 00:28:41,229
it's peach grappa.

428
00:28:42,021 --> 00:28:42,896
I see.

429
00:28:47,937 --> 00:28:48,771
Come on.

430
00:28:49,562 --> 00:28:50,437
You go, man!

431
00:28:50,979 --> 00:28:52,062
Be careful!

432
00:28:53,687 --> 00:28:55,312
It's all in your hands now!

433
00:28:56,479 --> 00:28:57,646
All in your hands!

434
00:28:58,979 --> 00:28:59,812
Remember.

435
00:29:00,854 --> 00:29:02,646
Remember, move away immediately.

436
00:29:03,937 --> 00:29:07,312
Keep in mind all the steps.

437
00:29:07,396 --> 00:29:09,104
Open the slider and get out of the way!

438
00:29:09,187 --> 00:29:11,521
Move away immediately. Okay?

439
00:29:12,271 --> 00:29:13,687
Do you hear me, Maurizio?

440
00:29:14,937 --> 00:29:15,896
Can you hear me?

441
00:29:20,896 --> 00:29:21,854
Can you hear me?

442
00:29:23,646 --> 00:29:24,521
Of course not.

443
00:29:32,521 --> 00:29:33,354
It's working!

444
00:29:43,479 --> 00:29:45,104
No, Maurizio!

445
00:29:45,187 --> 00:29:48,896
Why didn't you listen to me?
I told you to move away immediately!

446
00:29:48,979 --> 00:29:51,354
He never listens!
He has to do things his way!

447
00:29:51,937 --> 00:29:53,771
Look what's happened to him now!

448
00:29:53,854 --> 00:29:57,771
Now I'm stranded here on the boat,
in the middle of the sea!

449
00:29:57,854 --> 00:29:59,354
Well done!

450
00:30:07,604 --> 00:30:08,812
It works!

451
00:30:10,646 --> 00:30:12,229
It works!

452
00:30:12,312 --> 00:30:16,437
It's the best day of my life!
I want to do it again! Come on!

453
00:30:23,646 --> 00:30:26,854
So you two transported some pillars,

454
00:30:26,937 --> 00:30:31,396
installed them on the seabed,
built a 400-square-meter platform

455
00:30:32,187 --> 00:30:33,729
and nobody said anything?

456
00:30:33,812 --> 00:30:34,729
That's correct.

457
00:30:35,354 --> 00:30:36,979
Not until we got the drill.

458
00:30:39,729 --> 00:30:40,604
The drill?

459
00:30:41,562 --> 00:30:42,437
Yes.

460
00:30:42,521 --> 00:30:44,146
To look for drinking water.

461
00:30:44,646 --> 00:30:48,187
To be an independent island,
you need to have your own water.

462
00:30:48,896 --> 00:30:50,521
So we had to drill.

463
00:30:55,521 --> 00:30:59,604
Can't we turn this drill off?
It's been three days. It's driving me mad!

464
00:30:59,687 --> 00:31:01,979
Maurizio, water is essential!

465
00:31:02,062 --> 00:31:04,729
If you're worried
about the cost of the drill,

466
00:31:04,812 --> 00:31:09,312
we'll have to budget better,
counting the workers and all that.

467
00:31:09,396 --> 00:31:12,562
Come on!
We're not really going to pay them!

468
00:31:12,646 --> 00:31:14,562
They're actually grateful to us.

469
00:31:14,646 --> 00:31:18,729
They were this close to jail.
They stole millions from my dad's safe!

470
00:31:19,312 --> 00:31:21,146
Wasn't that you?

471
00:31:21,229 --> 00:31:23,729
Not according to the prosecutor in Rimini.

472
00:31:24,479 --> 00:31:25,312
Right.

473
00:31:26,979 --> 00:31:31,062
What a pain. Turn it off for a second.
And then we'll turn it back on.

474
00:31:31,646 --> 00:31:33,979
You can't just flip a switch.

475
00:31:34,062 --> 00:31:35,521
It's not a toaster.

476
00:31:35,604 --> 00:31:37,354
Coastguard to…

477
00:31:38,229 --> 00:31:40,312
unidentified island.

478
00:31:40,396 --> 00:31:46,646
You're required to identify yourselves,
and to immediately cease all activities.

479
00:31:46,729 --> 00:31:49,937
No, we can't turn it off just like that.
There's no switch!

480
00:31:50,021 --> 00:31:51,146
Last warning.

481
00:31:51,646 --> 00:31:53,937
The illegal occupation of public airwaves

482
00:31:54,021 --> 00:31:57,896
is a criminal offense punishable
with immediate detention if in flagrante.

483
00:31:57,979 --> 00:32:00,729
-Public airways?
-He doesn't get it. Let me talk to him.

484
00:32:01,271 --> 00:32:02,187
This is not…

485
00:32:02,687 --> 00:32:06,687
a toaster that you can switch on and off.
And we're in international waters!

486
00:32:06,771 --> 00:32:09,979
And most importantly,
we're not a radio. We're not.

487
00:32:10,062 --> 00:32:11,062
No!

488
00:32:11,146 --> 00:32:13,479
He thinks the drill
is a transmitting antenna.

489
00:32:13,562 --> 00:32:16,979
We're not transmitting.
We don't use airwaves. It's just a drill.

490
00:32:17,687 --> 00:32:19,521
We're looking for water.

491
00:32:20,812 --> 00:32:22,354
We're looking for water.

492
00:32:22,437 --> 00:32:24,354
Did he say they're looking for water?

493
00:32:24,437 --> 00:32:25,521
Did he understand?

494
00:32:26,604 --> 00:32:27,562
What do they mean?

495
00:32:30,812 --> 00:32:33,104
Why are you looking for water
in the middle of the sea?

496
00:32:35,687 --> 00:32:36,896
Well, because…

497
00:32:38,562 --> 00:32:40,687
To create an independent state.

498
00:32:41,437 --> 00:32:45,021
An independent state
with or without radio?

499
00:32:45,104 --> 00:32:46,896
Without radio!

500
00:32:47,729 --> 00:32:49,146
A state without radio.

501
00:32:49,229 --> 00:32:50,812
Perfect.

502
00:32:50,896 --> 00:32:53,687
Thanks for your cooperation.
Have a nice day!

503
00:32:53,771 --> 00:32:54,771
You too.

504
00:33:31,896 --> 00:33:33,687
-More water?
-I'm okay, thanks.

505
00:33:35,229 --> 00:33:37,771
Let's go
and take the Calabrians back to shore.

506
00:33:41,771 --> 00:33:42,937
You know what?

507
00:33:43,812 --> 00:33:45,271
I think I might stay here.

508
00:33:46,187 --> 00:33:47,021
Here where?

509
00:33:47,104 --> 00:33:48,271
Here, on the island.

510
00:33:49,271 --> 00:33:50,271
We have everything.

511
00:33:50,771 --> 00:33:53,937
We have water, coffee. We have everything.

512
00:33:54,646 --> 00:33:56,562
And it's a beautiful, sunny day.

513
00:33:57,271 --> 00:33:58,771
I'll spend my first night here.

514
00:33:59,479 --> 00:34:00,312
Are you sure?

515
00:34:01,146 --> 00:34:04,187
Why did we build an island
if we're not going to stay on it?

516
00:34:04,271 --> 00:34:05,604
I'm definitely sure.

517
00:34:08,521 --> 00:34:10,021
Anyway…

518
00:34:12,271 --> 00:34:13,229
it's beautiful!

519
00:34:15,104 --> 00:34:16,896
Shit. This is incredible.

520
00:34:24,354 --> 00:34:25,562
Thank you, Maurizio.

521
00:34:27,687 --> 00:34:28,521
Thank you.

522
00:34:34,604 --> 00:34:37,812
Listen, better not to hug
in front of the Calabrians.

523
00:34:37,896 --> 00:34:39,062
Do you mind?

524
00:34:39,146 --> 00:34:41,646
Yes, sure. You're right. Sorry.

525
00:36:55,604 --> 00:36:56,562
Hey!

526
00:37:04,854 --> 00:37:06,604
Hey!

527
00:37:07,562 --> 00:37:09,021
What is that?

528
00:37:09,104 --> 00:37:14,062
This is a free and independent island!
We even have drinking water--

529
00:37:14,146 --> 00:37:17,771
Okay, you can tell me later!
Help me up, please!

530
00:37:18,896 --> 00:37:20,354
Pietro Bernardini.

531
00:37:21,396 --> 00:37:25,604
Officially, a welder.
He'd been living on his boat for months,

532
00:37:26,687 --> 00:37:30,979
and he became
the first resident of the island.

533
00:37:32,396 --> 00:37:34,979
-Was the first resident really a castaway?
-Yes.

534
00:37:37,146 --> 00:37:40,896
There appears to be another resident too.
A stateless man of German origin

535
00:37:40,979 --> 00:37:42,104
whose name is…

536
00:37:43,562 --> 00:37:46,687
whose name is…

537
00:37:48,187 --> 00:37:49,104
Neumann.

538
00:37:50,646 --> 00:37:52,187
Wolfgang Rudy Neumann.

539
00:37:53,771 --> 00:37:54,854
Correct.

540
00:37:54,937 --> 00:37:57,562
Wolfgang Rudy Neumann.

541
00:38:07,437 --> 00:38:12,437
Legend has it that in 1943,
Neumann was forced to join the army

542
00:38:12,521 --> 00:38:15,146
and was sent to Rimini
to defend the Gothic Line.

543
00:38:15,229 --> 00:38:16,854
But as soon as he saw the beach,

544
00:38:16,937 --> 00:38:19,146
he knew what he wanted to do
with his life.

545
00:38:19,229 --> 00:38:22,812
Without even thinking about it,
one night he runs away from his camp

546
00:38:22,896 --> 00:38:25,979
and goes to the town hall
to ask for a beach concession.

547
00:38:26,062 --> 00:38:29,937
This is how the legend
of Wolfgang Rudy Neumann was born,

548
00:38:30,021 --> 00:38:33,312
the greatest promoter
on the Romagna Riviera.

549
00:38:40,312 --> 00:38:43,812
Rudy! Come here!

550
00:38:44,396 --> 00:38:48,604
But at the end of the war,
he was charged with desertion

551
00:38:48,687 --> 00:38:52,021
and his German citizenship was revoked.

552
00:38:52,771 --> 00:38:53,854
Yes, Peppe?

553
00:38:53,937 --> 00:38:56,354
Did I ever tell you
what my father did for a living?

554
00:38:56,437 --> 00:38:59,437
-No, Peppe. You didn't.
-He was a buffalo farmer.

555
00:38:59,521 --> 00:39:01,021
And guess what buffalo smells of?

556
00:39:02,271 --> 00:39:03,104
Cows?

557
00:39:03,187 --> 00:39:04,354
Shit.

558
00:39:05,062 --> 00:39:07,729
I went to the toilet earlier,
and I was almost moved.

559
00:39:07,812 --> 00:39:10,729
It reminded me of my childhood.

560
00:39:10,812 --> 00:39:14,812
How many times do I have to tell you
you need to check them every 20 minutes,

561
00:39:14,896 --> 00:39:18,896
and clean the shit off the floor,
off the walls, off the sink,

562
00:39:18,979 --> 00:39:20,187
and off the toilet seats?

563
00:39:20,271 --> 00:39:21,771
Why do I have to do that?

564
00:39:21,854 --> 00:39:24,646
Who's bringing
all these people who shit here?

565
00:39:24,729 --> 00:39:27,771
That's what I do, bring people to clubs.
That's what you pay me for.

566
00:39:27,854 --> 00:39:30,479
No, I pay you because I'm a benefactor.

567
00:39:30,562 --> 00:39:33,687
If you don't like it,
why don't you open your own beach club?

568
00:39:33,771 --> 00:39:36,479
You know why. They only give permits
to Italian citizens.

569
00:39:36,562 --> 00:39:38,729
Open one in Germany then.

570
00:39:38,812 --> 00:39:41,021
I'm not a German citizen either.

571
00:39:41,104 --> 00:39:43,812
So, buddy, off you go then.

572
00:39:50,979 --> 00:39:53,854
Did you hear they're building
an island off Rimini?

573
00:39:53,937 --> 00:39:55,312
They're building an island?

574
00:39:55,396 --> 00:39:58,479
Yeah, some crazy guy from Bologna.
It's absurd.

575
00:39:58,562 --> 00:40:00,771
What do they plan to do with it?

576
00:40:00,854 --> 00:40:05,187
It's outside territorial waters,
you can do what you want, apparently.

577
00:40:05,271 --> 00:40:07,687
I tell you what,
we can party big time there.

578
00:40:07,771 --> 00:40:11,771
A round of applause to the best promoter
on our Riviera, Rudy Neumann!

579
00:40:14,396 --> 00:40:18,771
-I mean, you built all this by yourselves?
-Yes, we did.

580
00:40:20,062 --> 00:40:21,562
Why the hell did you do that?

581
00:40:22,771 --> 00:40:25,937
For the same reason
a dog licks his own balls.

582
00:40:28,104 --> 00:40:29,354
I don't get it.

583
00:40:31,062 --> 00:40:32,146
Because he can.

584
00:40:34,604 --> 00:40:35,437
What do you mean?

585
00:40:36,271 --> 00:40:39,271
A dog licks his own balls because he can.

586
00:40:39,354 --> 00:40:42,062
We are engineers,
we wanted to build an island,

587
00:40:42,146 --> 00:40:44,271
we could do it, so we did it.

588
00:40:45,646 --> 00:40:48,437
I don't get the balls thing,
you lick your own balls--

589
00:40:48,521 --> 00:40:50,271
No, we don't lick our balls.

590
00:40:50,354 --> 00:40:53,729
It was a way of saying
we wanted to create our own world

591
00:40:53,812 --> 00:40:57,187
where we'd feel really free,
and we did it. We built it.

592
00:40:57,271 --> 00:40:59,854
Is that a naked man shaving?

593
00:40:59,937 --> 00:41:02,062
Yes, his name is Pietro. He lives here.

594
00:41:03,187 --> 00:41:04,062
On the island?

595
00:41:04,604 --> 00:41:07,646
Yes, he's a castaway.
He's not much of a talker but…

596
00:41:07,729 --> 00:41:11,562
I can only count three things here though.
A semi-deserted island,

597
00:41:11,646 --> 00:41:14,812
water that's almost fresh,
and a half-naked castaway.

598
00:41:14,896 --> 00:41:16,312
Not much of a free, new world.

599
00:41:16,396 --> 00:41:19,146
Wait a minute,
I can count three things too.

600
00:41:19,229 --> 00:41:23,396
A German deserter,
a promoter that nobody knows, and--

601
00:41:24,312 --> 00:41:27,604
I can't even think of a third one.
This guy comes in criticizing--

602
00:41:27,687 --> 00:41:30,354
You don't do that.
We don't have to welcome everyone.

603
00:41:30,437 --> 00:41:32,687
These are the people
we should be welcoming.

604
00:41:32,771 --> 00:41:34,229
Castaways, deserters…

605
00:41:34,312 --> 00:41:37,604
Here no one really cares
who you are or where you're from.

606
00:41:37,687 --> 00:41:40,437
He says this now,
but he did all this for a girl.

607
00:41:40,521 --> 00:41:41,937
-No, I didn't.
-Yes, you did.

608
00:41:42,021 --> 00:41:44,854
Does this place have a name?

609
00:41:48,229 --> 00:41:50,479
BOAT TRIP TO THE NEW STEEL ISLAND

610
00:41:50,562 --> 00:41:53,562
DEPARTS 10:30 EVERY MORNING
RETURNS 17:45

611
00:42:04,687 --> 00:42:06,979
With Rudy Neumann, everything changed.

612
00:42:07,729 --> 00:42:10,312
It was an incredible and instant success.

613
00:42:14,979 --> 00:42:18,937
Rumors about a free, independent state
spread like wildfire.

614
00:42:19,521 --> 00:42:21,812
First along the Romagna Riviera,

615
00:42:21,896 --> 00:42:23,396
then all across Italy.

616
00:42:23,479 --> 00:42:25,896
In the end,
people were arriving from all over Europe,

617
00:42:25,979 --> 00:42:30,021
to see for themselves
what sounded like a miracle.

618
00:42:43,354 --> 00:42:46,104
And it also happened at the perfect time.

619
00:42:49,062 --> 00:42:52,187
That was a year that made history.

620
00:42:52,271 --> 00:42:55,479
And that everyone recalls
just by the last two numbers,

621
00:42:55,562 --> 00:42:57,521
six and eight.

622
00:43:07,771 --> 00:43:10,479
We didn't know much
about the French riots of that May.

623
00:43:11,271 --> 00:43:14,312
Except that they took to the streets
and set Paris on fire,

624
00:43:14,396 --> 00:43:16,062
calling for a better world.

625
00:43:16,146 --> 00:43:20,604
As for us, we actually built
that "better world" ourselves.

626
00:43:20,687 --> 00:43:24,146
Today, May 1st, 1968,

627
00:43:24,229 --> 00:43:27,604
five hundred meters
outside territorial waters,

628
00:43:27,687 --> 00:43:31,729
free from everything,
we're making history!

629
00:43:31,812 --> 00:43:36,521
Here, you are truly free!

630
00:43:39,354 --> 00:43:42,104
Welcome to Rose Island!

631
00:43:55,437 --> 00:43:56,729
We need a language.

632
00:43:58,354 --> 00:43:59,354
What do you mean?

633
00:44:00,062 --> 00:44:01,729
People come from all over Europe.

634
00:44:01,812 --> 00:44:04,396
We need an official language
that's not Italian

635
00:44:04,479 --> 00:44:06,896
and not from another country.

636
00:44:06,979 --> 00:44:09,354
A free international language.

637
00:44:10,021 --> 00:44:12,021
I don't think it exists, unfortunately.

638
00:44:13,479 --> 00:44:14,812
I believe it does.

639
00:44:17,104 --> 00:44:18,812
ROSE ISLAND

640
00:44:27,812 --> 00:44:29,979
THE MYSTERY OF THE ISLAND
REVEALED IN RIMINI

641
00:44:30,062 --> 00:44:31,812
THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE IS ESPERANTO

642
00:44:31,896 --> 00:44:35,604
For the press, we were
more important than national politics,

643
00:44:35,687 --> 00:44:39,354
than student riots,
and even the Vietnam War.

644
00:44:39,437 --> 00:44:42,229
ROSE ISLAND
RUDY NEUMANN TO BE THE NEW PROMOTER

645
00:45:29,062 --> 00:45:29,896
Shit.

646
00:45:40,937 --> 00:45:41,896
Are you leaving?

647
00:45:41,979 --> 00:45:43,521
Yes. I'm pregnant.

648
00:45:44,437 --> 00:45:45,437
Pregnant?

649
00:45:45,521 --> 00:45:46,937
What do you mean "pregnant"?

650
00:45:47,771 --> 00:45:49,937
Oh my God, how do I tell my mother?

651
00:45:51,437 --> 00:45:54,812
It's not yours, idiot.
We only met last night.

652
00:45:58,354 --> 00:45:59,312
Here.

653
00:46:00,646 --> 00:46:03,521
-Pietro, did you only get Cynar?
-People love Cynar.

654
00:46:04,521 --> 00:46:08,562
Okay, no doubt about that,
but they might want something else too.

655
00:46:08,646 --> 00:46:09,896
Can you hurry up?

656
00:46:09,979 --> 00:46:12,896
I heard from the pier,
they're expecting it to be packed today.

657
00:46:12,979 --> 00:46:15,854
-How's it going with the bar?
-He only got Cynar.

658
00:46:15,937 --> 00:46:18,521
-I think people really love Cynar.
-Maurizio?

659
00:46:18,604 --> 00:46:21,146
Weren't you meant
to go shopping with him?

660
00:46:21,229 --> 00:46:23,812
I'm only marginally involved
in this project.

661
00:46:23,896 --> 00:46:26,479
Please, don't start again
with the name story.

662
00:46:26,562 --> 00:46:28,229
Yes, I will.

663
00:46:28,312 --> 00:46:30,896
Because it was a beautiful
and elegant name.

664
00:46:30,979 --> 00:46:34,396
"Maurizio and Giorgio's island"
wasn't beautiful nor elegant.

665
00:46:34,479 --> 00:46:37,354
Yes, it was.
There's a girl staring at you.

666
00:46:40,687 --> 00:46:41,521
Oh, God.

667
00:46:42,687 --> 00:46:44,896
One of you must go and talk to her.

668
00:46:44,979 --> 00:46:47,104
-Tell her I died in Vietnam.
-Hi.

669
00:46:47,187 --> 00:46:49,854
Hi! Nice to see you. What a surprise!

670
00:46:49,937 --> 00:46:51,104
I'm pregnant.

671
00:46:51,187 --> 00:46:56,312
I have a certificate of sterility
issued during the war certifying that--

672
00:46:56,396 --> 00:46:58,521
Look, I'm not sure it's yours.

673
00:47:00,062 --> 00:47:00,979
What do you mean?

674
00:47:01,062 --> 00:47:03,146
Well, there are several options.

675
00:47:03,229 --> 00:47:05,104
That's not nice.

676
00:47:05,187 --> 00:47:07,562
A girl shouldn't really go around saying--

677
00:47:07,646 --> 00:47:10,479
I've heard this place is amazing
but the bar sucks.

678
00:47:11,104 --> 00:47:14,104
I need a job. And it looks like
you need a bar attendant.

679
00:47:47,354 --> 00:47:48,562
-Get up.
-What?

680
00:47:48,646 --> 00:47:50,146
Come on, get up!

681
00:47:53,021 --> 00:47:55,437
It's getting worse by the minute here.

682
00:47:55,521 --> 00:47:59,604
The German's getting people to sign up
for an end-of-summer water-ski race.

683
00:47:59,687 --> 00:48:03,646
Do you think that's normal?
Was this the great idea we had?

684
00:48:03,729 --> 00:48:06,729
Because if you're talking of a free world,
I have a different view.

685
00:48:06,812 --> 00:48:07,771
And what's that?

686
00:48:07,854 --> 00:48:10,104
A big poker tournament.

687
00:48:10,187 --> 00:48:11,646
-A gambling house?
-No!

688
00:48:11,729 --> 00:48:14,354
We'll play for shots. Shots of grappa.

689
00:48:14,437 --> 00:48:17,104
If you lose, you drink,
if you win, you drink,

690
00:48:17,187 --> 00:48:19,646
and if anyone wants to play with money,
we can't say no.

691
00:48:19,729 --> 00:48:22,229
But that's not the point,
just as long as we both agree.

692
00:48:22,312 --> 00:48:25,021
I'll stop him
before he collects money off people.

693
00:48:25,104 --> 00:48:27,312
Let's talk about it later. Maurizio!

694
00:48:27,812 --> 00:48:28,687
Hey!

695
00:48:53,729 --> 00:48:55,854
That's the thing they do most often.

696
00:48:56,604 --> 00:48:59,937
They throw their clothes away,
shirts, ties, everything.

697
00:49:00,021 --> 00:49:02,396
Not sure why, but many of them do that.

698
00:49:04,312 --> 00:49:06,062
Is that your girlfriend?

699
00:49:06,937 --> 00:49:07,771
Who?

700
00:49:08,937 --> 00:49:11,104
That one there, the bar attendant.

701
00:49:12,021 --> 00:49:13,437
Come on! She's pregnant.

702
00:49:14,146 --> 00:49:15,187
Is it yours?

703
00:49:15,271 --> 00:49:19,687
What? No!
She doesn't know whose baby it is.

704
00:49:19,771 --> 00:49:23,146
She doesn't care.
She said there were a few options.

705
00:49:23,229 --> 00:49:29,104
She symbolizes this place,
a young, free-spirited, pregnant girl.

706
00:49:29,187 --> 00:49:33,062
She wouldn't have found
a job on the mainland, but here…

707
00:49:34,271 --> 00:49:38,437
You know, I'm happy to see you.
I knew you'd come sooner or later.

708
00:49:38,521 --> 00:49:42,437
-Everyone's talking about it in Rimini.
-You should see this place at night.

709
00:49:43,187 --> 00:49:44,104
You'd love it.

710
00:49:44,771 --> 00:49:46,396
Are you staying tonight?

711
00:49:49,771 --> 00:49:51,521
I'm getting married soon, Giorgio.

712
00:49:53,229 --> 00:49:54,062
Married?

713
00:49:55,562 --> 00:49:56,687
Come on!

714
00:49:56,771 --> 00:49:58,687
You don't want to get married.

715
00:49:59,229 --> 00:50:02,646
You belong in this world
more than anyone else.

716
00:50:04,437 --> 00:50:07,187
I'm not sure this qualifies
as a world, Giorgio.

717
00:50:08,771 --> 00:50:11,312
It's more like a disco, a beach club.

718
00:50:12,271 --> 00:50:14,812
It's not a disco.
It's an independent state.

719
00:50:15,437 --> 00:50:16,312
Free.

720
00:50:17,229 --> 00:50:18,937
We even have drinking water.

721
00:50:19,687 --> 00:50:21,604
-We have an official language.
-Sure.

722
00:50:21,687 --> 00:50:25,021
But I see people dancing, drinking,
a cute girl bartender,

723
00:50:25,104 --> 00:50:27,104
and it looks like a disco. That's all.

724
00:50:28,062 --> 00:50:29,729
With the name in Esperanto.

725
00:50:30,646 --> 00:50:32,562
It looks like that to you.

726
00:50:35,854 --> 00:50:37,896
Right. Giorgio, I'm sorry but…

727
00:50:37,979 --> 00:50:38,937
I have to go.

728
00:50:40,354 --> 00:50:41,187
Take care.

729
00:50:50,771 --> 00:50:55,021
Do you know how hard it is
to bring all these people out here?

730
00:50:55,104 --> 00:50:56,354
No, and you know why?

731
00:50:56,437 --> 00:50:59,104
Because it isn't hard
to bring people here!

732
00:50:59,187 --> 00:51:01,604
The hard part was building this island!

733
00:51:01,687 --> 00:51:04,604
And while we were building it,
you were cleaning toilets.

734
00:51:04,687 --> 00:51:06,312
I was the promoter there,

735
00:51:06,396 --> 00:51:10,812
and I quit because two kids
built a house on stilts in the sea

736
00:51:10,896 --> 00:51:13,687
and didn't know what to do with it.
I turned it into a dream place!

737
00:51:13,812 --> 00:51:16,021
It was our dream, not yours!
Don't forget that.

738
00:51:16,104 --> 00:51:19,271
I won't let you turn this place
into an illegal gambling den.

739
00:51:19,354 --> 00:51:22,771
There's nothing illegal on this island.
You need to understand that!

740
00:51:22,854 --> 00:51:26,104
Water-skiing is for rich people.
You can do it anywhere.

741
00:51:26,187 --> 00:51:28,604
But poker's something
you can only do here.

742
00:51:28,687 --> 00:51:31,646
-Because it's a crime in the real world!
-Correct! But not here.

743
00:51:31,729 --> 00:51:33,396
That's why we built an island.

744
00:51:33,479 --> 00:51:36,771
-Giorgio, back me up here.
-We built a disco.

745
00:51:37,854 --> 00:51:38,854
We did what?

746
00:51:38,937 --> 00:51:43,396
We built our little, free world,
on our happy island…

747
00:51:43,479 --> 00:51:45,771
But what's all this for,

748
00:51:45,854 --> 00:51:49,312
if they don't recognize us
as an independent state?

749
00:51:49,396 --> 00:51:50,979
Who's "they"?

750
00:51:52,062 --> 00:51:54,979
Italy, Europe, the other states. Who else?

751
00:51:55,062 --> 00:51:58,854
I disagree with that.
Who cares if they recognize us or not?

752
00:51:58,937 --> 00:52:02,062
If we wanted a state,
we'd have rules, and we don't want that.

753
00:52:02,146 --> 00:52:03,437
If they don't recognize us,

754
00:52:03,521 --> 00:52:05,937
we'll just be a disco
in the middle of the sea.

755
00:52:06,021 --> 00:52:09,479
We already have everything.
We have currency, we have stamps,

756
00:52:09,562 --> 00:52:10,896
we have a postal service.

757
00:52:10,979 --> 00:52:12,354
The only thing missing…

758
00:52:13,521 --> 00:52:14,729
is a government.

759
00:52:15,271 --> 00:52:17,062
But we are the government.

760
00:52:18,229 --> 00:52:19,562
I'll be the president.

761
00:52:20,104 --> 00:52:22,229
Franca, the minister for economic affairs.

762
00:52:22,312 --> 00:52:24,187
Pietro, surveillance and defense.

763
00:52:24,271 --> 00:52:26,062
What's a surveillance ministry?

764
00:52:26,146 --> 00:52:28,771
I said "surveillance and defense"
for a reason.

765
00:52:28,854 --> 00:52:31,604
You're the caretaker,
you oversee rather than defend.

766
00:52:32,229 --> 00:52:34,562
Rudy, secretary of state,
Maurizio, internal affairs.

767
00:52:34,646 --> 00:52:38,479
-I'm not sure that's a good idea.
-Maurizio's right. It'll piss them off.

768
00:52:38,562 --> 00:52:39,396
So what?

769
00:52:39,937 --> 00:52:41,396
I feel like a minister.

770
00:52:42,312 --> 00:52:45,687
I wonder how my folks will react.
I usually give them bad news.

771
00:52:46,604 --> 00:52:48,104
How exactly are we doing this?

772
00:53:21,979 --> 00:53:25,854
UNITED NATIONS HEADQUARTERS

773
00:54:51,437 --> 00:54:56,521
COUNCIL OF MINISTERS

774
00:54:56,604 --> 00:54:59,354
The idea is to increase
and strategically relocate

775
00:54:59,437 --> 00:55:01,979
the military trucks in key spots

776
00:55:02,062 --> 00:55:04,771
to send out a strong message.

777
00:55:04,854 --> 00:55:08,271
Using the summertime to regain control
over the occupied universities.

778
00:55:08,854 --> 00:55:10,271
Basically all of them, except one.

779
00:55:10,354 --> 00:55:12,396
Only one left? Which one?

780
00:55:12,479 --> 00:55:13,604
Luigi,

781
00:55:13,687 --> 00:55:15,229
the military trucks again?

782
00:55:15,312 --> 00:55:18,354
I know, Giovanni, but if you've noticed,

783
00:55:18,437 --> 00:55:22,104
the students who went to lessons
and respected the teachers six months ago,

784
00:55:22,187 --> 00:55:25,312
have suddenly turned into a mob
driven by hatred and violence.

785
00:55:25,396 --> 00:55:28,604
Clearly, pollution is to blame,

786
00:55:28,687 --> 00:55:32,021
excessive protein intake, and TV.

787
00:55:32,604 --> 00:55:36,521
I happened to watch TV last night,
and it was all about dismemberment,

788
00:55:36,604 --> 00:55:38,521
monsters, people copulating.

789
00:55:38,604 --> 00:55:41,229
All this on the main channel.
Is that acceptable?

790
00:55:41,312 --> 00:55:43,104
You must have watched The Odyssey.

791
00:55:43,187 --> 00:55:44,729
The Odyssey?

792
00:55:44,812 --> 00:55:46,979
Maybe. I fell asleep halfway through.

793
00:55:47,062 --> 00:55:48,646
Okay, then…

794
00:55:49,146 --> 00:55:50,812
let's go ahead with the outposts.

795
00:55:50,896 --> 00:55:54,271
If there are no other urgent matters,
we'll update on Thursday.

796
00:55:54,896 --> 00:55:55,812
Thank you.

797
00:55:59,271 --> 00:56:03,146
Actually, Giovanni,
talking about young people,

798
00:56:03,729 --> 00:56:05,187
there is one thing…

799
00:56:05,771 --> 00:56:08,521
Forget it, we'll talk about it next time.
Don't worry.

800
00:56:08,604 --> 00:56:09,604
Tell me, Franco.

801
00:56:09,687 --> 00:56:14,062
We'll talk about it next time.
Don't worry, it's not important.

802
00:56:14,146 --> 00:56:17,479
Even better.
Just tell us and we can go for lunch.

803
00:56:18,687 --> 00:56:19,896
It's nothing…

804
00:56:20,396 --> 00:56:21,979
Basically, what's happening is…

805
00:56:22,771 --> 00:56:27,187
there's this guy,
with some friends in Rimini.

806
00:56:28,104 --> 00:56:29,104
It's nothing really…

807
00:56:29,771 --> 00:56:33,104
Five hundred meters
outside of territorial waters,

808
00:56:33,854 --> 00:56:36,187
so just off Rimini.

809
00:56:36,271 --> 00:56:37,479
What did he do?

810
00:56:37,562 --> 00:56:39,687
He built an island,

811
00:56:39,771 --> 00:56:42,104
and declared independence.

812
00:56:45,854 --> 00:56:47,229
I didn't get that. Say it again.

813
00:56:47,312 --> 00:56:49,937
It's nothing, Giovanni,
it's no big deal. I told you.

814
00:56:50,021 --> 00:56:52,937
In fact, while telling you
and hearing myself saying it,

815
00:56:53,021 --> 00:56:54,729
I actually realized

816
00:56:54,812 --> 00:56:57,896
that it sounds more serious
than it really is.

817
00:56:57,979 --> 00:57:02,521
Some guys in Rimini,
500 meters outside territorial waters,

818
00:57:02,604 --> 00:57:06,312
built an island and declared independence.

819
00:57:17,021 --> 00:57:18,979
Independence from whom?

820
00:57:19,062 --> 00:57:22,896
From Italy, I believe. From everyone.
They're independent…

821
00:57:23,896 --> 00:57:28,646
An island, though from what I gather,
it's more like a platform.

822
00:57:28,729 --> 00:57:29,979
"From what I gather"?

823
00:57:30,062 --> 00:57:34,021
Giovanni, please,
let's not make a drama out of nothing.

824
00:57:34,104 --> 00:57:36,812
-And how did they build this platform?
-I don't know.

825
00:57:36,896 --> 00:57:38,562
-And how long did it take?
-Giovanni--

826
00:57:38,646 --> 00:57:40,771
-How long did it take?
-I don't know.

827
00:57:40,854 --> 00:57:44,687
An adequate amount of time
necessary to build something like that.

828
00:57:44,771 --> 00:57:46,979
Why are we just finding out about it?

829
00:57:47,062 --> 00:57:49,312
Maybe because the local authority,

830
00:57:49,396 --> 00:57:52,229
considering it's outside
territorial waters,

831
00:57:52,312 --> 00:57:54,812
might have believed it wasn't their--

832
00:57:54,896 --> 00:57:55,771
I'm sorry,

833
00:57:56,437 --> 00:57:57,729
but how did you find out?

834
00:57:58,396 --> 00:58:01,187
Well… this maybe is the only detail

835
00:58:01,271 --> 00:58:06,021
that makes this seemingly
insignificant event, a little more serious

836
00:58:06,104 --> 00:58:08,271
because basically, we were told by…

837
00:58:10,771 --> 00:58:12,521
Well, the UN called us.

838
00:58:15,729 --> 00:58:18,604
-The UN called us?
-That's why I didn't want to tell you.

839
00:58:18,687 --> 00:58:23,021
Giovanni, we're making a big fuss,
that's what we're doing, about a prank--

840
00:58:23,104 --> 00:58:27,479
I'm sorry, Franco, the UN called us,
and you say it's a prank!

841
00:58:27,562 --> 00:58:29,646
Who's our man at the UN? Who's there?

842
00:58:29,729 --> 00:58:30,562
Randelli.

843
00:58:30,646 --> 00:58:31,812
Randelli died last year!

844
00:58:31,896 --> 00:58:34,312
What's the name of the officer
who called you?

845
00:58:34,396 --> 00:58:36,771
I don't think it was an officer, Giovanni.

846
00:58:36,854 --> 00:58:38,437
Good. Maybe it was a secretary.

847
00:58:38,521 --> 00:58:41,146
Secretary, yes, I mean…

848
00:58:41,229 --> 00:58:44,146
not a secretary but the…

849
00:58:44,229 --> 00:58:46,854
Secretary-General of the United Nations.

850
00:58:49,437 --> 00:58:50,521
When did this happen?

851
00:58:50,604 --> 00:58:51,771
Two days ago.

852
00:58:51,854 --> 00:58:53,562
What the hell have you been doing
for two days?

853
00:58:53,646 --> 00:58:56,979
I immediately sent out
two of our best intelligence officers.

854
00:58:57,062 --> 00:58:58,771
Good. Where's their report?

855
00:59:00,771 --> 00:59:02,687
We haven't heard from them…

856
00:59:03,521 --> 00:59:04,812
for nearly 40 hours.

857
00:59:05,604 --> 00:59:06,854
By law, in eight hours' time

858
00:59:06,937 --> 00:59:09,604
we have to notify the families
by telegram.

859
00:59:18,229 --> 00:59:20,687
Good morning, gentlemen. So…

860
00:59:22,271 --> 00:59:25,146
-Tell me you found them.
-They're on the phone.

861
00:59:25,229 --> 00:59:27,687
-They're alive then.
-Yes, I'd say so.

862
00:59:27,771 --> 00:59:30,229
They'll regret they are.

863
00:59:32,062 --> 00:59:38,937
Agent, I hope you have a valid explanation
for your disgraceful behavior.

864
00:59:39,021 --> 00:59:42,354
-I cheated on my wife!
-Agent, pull yourself together.

865
00:59:42,437 --> 00:59:44,437
The situation's taken a bad turn.

866
00:59:44,521 --> 00:59:47,646
Please, don't tell her.
I love her so much!

867
00:59:47,729 --> 00:59:50,479
-Wait!
-Minister, Agent Piazza here.

868
00:59:50,562 --> 00:59:56,021
The island's inhabitants' top priority
is the custom of adding fruit to wine,

869
00:59:56,104 --> 00:59:57,396
then drinking the wine…

870
00:59:57,479 --> 01:00:01,854
Agent Piazza, it's called sangria.
In Spain, they've been doing it for ages.

871
01:00:01,937 --> 01:00:03,937
Agent Piazza, I'm fairly sure

872
01:00:04,021 --> 01:00:07,771
that you're talking to
an Italian minister while drunk!

873
01:00:08,562 --> 01:00:09,479
It's the minister.

874
01:00:09,562 --> 01:00:12,687
Return to Rome immediately
with a detailed report.

875
01:00:12,771 --> 01:00:17,729
Or you will have to face a court-martial
with accusations of high treason.

876
01:00:30,979 --> 01:00:33,521
After foreign affairs, onto lifestyle.

877
01:00:33,604 --> 01:00:37,479
Or rather, we're still on foreign affairs
but we'll focus on the "life in style."

878
01:00:37,562 --> 01:00:41,979
That fun play on words
is the perfect introduction

879
01:00:42,062 --> 01:00:46,687
to what seems to have become
the main attraction on Rimini's shores,

880
01:00:46,771 --> 01:00:48,229
Rose Island.

881
01:00:49,146 --> 01:00:54,562
The founder, Giorgio Rosa,
talks about utopia and freedom.

882
01:00:54,646 --> 01:00:57,729
But what is being hidden on the island?

883
01:00:57,812 --> 01:00:58,896
Drugs?

884
01:00:58,979 --> 01:01:00,687
Moral degeneration?

885
01:01:00,771 --> 01:01:02,062
Gambling?

886
01:01:02,646 --> 01:01:05,937
We talk to Franco Restivo,
Minister of Internal Affairs.

887
01:01:07,562 --> 01:01:10,271
This so-called Rose Island,

888
01:01:10,354 --> 01:01:16,521
absolutely cannot and should not
be considered as an independent state.

889
01:01:16,604 --> 01:01:18,854
Is it true that the UN
has started an investigation

890
01:01:18,937 --> 01:01:22,021
on the basis that there might be grounds
for a claim for independence?

891
01:01:22,104 --> 01:01:26,271
No. That investigation
does not concern us.

892
01:01:26,354 --> 01:01:32,604
The Italian State will absolutely
not tolerate a lawless platform

893
01:01:32,687 --> 01:01:36,312
where the safety of our citizens
cannot be guaranteed.

894
01:01:36,396 --> 01:01:40,104
They may be in international waters,
but they are Italian citizens,

895
01:01:40,187 --> 01:01:43,604
and their safety is our main concern.

896
01:01:48,312 --> 01:01:49,146
What's this?

897
01:01:49,229 --> 01:01:51,479
Letters. Applications for citizenship.

898
01:01:52,062 --> 01:01:54,896
The minister has unwillingly
put us on the map.

899
01:01:54,979 --> 01:01:56,937
The requests come from all over the world!

900
01:01:57,021 --> 01:01:58,646
Now everyone knows who we are.

901
01:01:58,729 --> 01:02:01,312
And they want to become citizens
of Rose Island.

902
01:02:11,729 --> 01:02:14,562
-God bless the president!
-Come on, get up.

903
01:02:14,646 --> 01:02:16,354
-You're amazing!
-Thanks.

904
01:02:18,021 --> 01:02:19,687
So how's it going?

905
01:02:21,062 --> 01:02:22,396
Sorry I'm late.

906
01:02:22,979 --> 01:02:23,979
President?

907
01:02:24,479 --> 01:02:27,771
Yes, Dad, but they're hippies.
They're over the top.

908
01:02:29,062 --> 01:02:31,479
-Have you ordered yet?
-We were waiting for you.

909
01:02:31,562 --> 01:02:33,229
Okay, here I am. Waiter!

910
01:02:34,271 --> 01:02:35,812
What's fresh today?

911
01:02:36,646 --> 01:02:38,271
Our usual catch of the day,

912
01:02:38,354 --> 01:02:41,104
and a fantastic lobster
that can be served a number of ways.

913
01:02:41,187 --> 01:02:43,687
Great! Lobster for everybody?

914
01:02:43,771 --> 01:02:45,771
Half a portion of tagliolini.

915
01:02:47,729 --> 01:02:50,479
Half a portion of tagliolini? Dad?

916
01:02:50,562 --> 01:02:52,646
Yes, half a portion of tagliolini.

917
01:02:53,437 --> 01:02:56,021
Don't worry about money, you're my guests.

918
01:02:56,104 --> 01:02:58,437
-Half a portion--
-He'd like half a portion of tagliolini.

919
01:02:58,521 --> 01:03:01,771
So two lobsters
and half a portion of tagliolini.

920
01:03:01,854 --> 01:03:04,187
Good. Thank you.

921
01:03:04,854 --> 01:03:07,729
-Thanks. You look good, Mom.
-Thanks.

922
01:03:07,812 --> 01:03:08,896
Is it legal, Giorgio?

923
01:03:10,312 --> 01:03:12,396
The money you're earning, is it legal?

924
01:03:13,104 --> 01:03:14,854
What do you mean legal?

925
01:03:16,062 --> 01:03:19,937
We're an independent state,
close to being recognized by the UN,

926
01:03:20,937 --> 01:03:22,604
we get to decide what is legal.

927
01:03:22,687 --> 01:03:24,854
Nobody gets to say
what is legal for themselves.

928
01:03:24,937 --> 01:03:26,896
Dad, we're doing nothing wrong.

929
01:03:26,979 --> 01:03:29,937
Don't believe the newspapers.

930
01:03:30,021 --> 01:03:32,604
Why don't you come after lunch?

931
01:03:32,687 --> 01:03:34,521
It's just 20 minutes by boat.

932
01:03:34,604 --> 01:03:37,146
We can go together,
and you can see what we do.

933
01:03:38,437 --> 01:03:42,729
Did I tell you I patented
a telescopic pillar system to build it?

934
01:03:43,354 --> 01:03:44,437
You'd love it.

935
01:03:45,604 --> 01:03:46,771
Are you coming?

936
01:03:48,729 --> 01:03:51,187
Your mom has a nap after lunch,
we'd better not.

937
01:04:00,771 --> 01:04:01,604
Okay.

938
01:04:02,396 --> 01:04:03,604
Maybe another time.

939
01:04:28,646 --> 01:04:29,896
Aren't your folks coming?

940
01:04:31,354 --> 01:04:33,354
My mom needs a rest after lunch.

941
01:04:33,979 --> 01:04:35,479
Don't take it personally.

942
01:04:35,979 --> 01:04:38,437
It's hard for them to understand
what we're doing.

943
01:04:42,729 --> 01:04:44,604
Mr. Rosa, right?

944
01:04:44,687 --> 01:04:47,062
We're about to leave. We're in a hurry.

945
01:04:47,146 --> 01:04:47,979
Yes, that's me.

946
01:04:48,062 --> 01:04:51,187
You need to talk to
our foreign relations representative.

947
01:04:51,271 --> 01:04:52,937
Mr. Rosa, we need to talk to you.

948
01:04:53,021 --> 01:04:56,146
-I was just saying that you need to--
-That's okay.

949
01:04:57,854 --> 01:04:58,979
Let's go.

950
01:04:59,062 --> 01:05:01,062
Meet me at the boat. I'll be right back.

951
01:05:03,604 --> 01:05:05,646
Mr. Rosa, do you know who we are?

952
01:05:06,854 --> 01:05:09,229
-Funeral service?
-We're from the Secret Service.

953
01:05:09,312 --> 01:05:11,271
I know. It was a joke.

954
01:05:12,937 --> 01:05:14,229
Haven't we met before?

955
01:05:14,312 --> 01:05:17,062
I've spent about 40 hours on the island.

956
01:05:17,146 --> 01:05:19,396
I remember,
you're the one who lost his pinkie.

957
01:05:19,479 --> 01:05:20,937
Not really.

958
01:05:21,437 --> 01:05:24,312
I didn't actually bet my pinkie.

959
01:05:24,396 --> 01:05:27,229
It was a memorable game!

960
01:05:27,312 --> 01:05:31,187
You must immediately cease
all activities on the island.

961
01:05:32,104 --> 01:05:33,146
Which activities?

962
01:05:33,812 --> 01:05:37,604
Our report suggests
that you have a bar managed by a minor,

963
01:05:37,687 --> 01:05:39,562
and you host card games.

964
01:05:40,104 --> 01:05:41,062
So what?

965
01:05:41,729 --> 01:05:44,396
Aren't those men
playing cards in a bar too?

966
01:05:44,896 --> 01:05:46,021
Why can't we do it?

967
01:05:46,104 --> 01:05:50,187
It's different what happens here
under the watchful eye of the authorities.

968
01:05:50,271 --> 01:05:53,104
Oh, I see! It's about "the watchful eye."

969
01:05:53,187 --> 01:05:56,271
Listen, Giorgio,
what the major is trying to say

970
01:05:56,354 --> 01:05:59,187
is that we appreciate
your sociological experiment,

971
01:05:59,271 --> 01:06:01,646
but as with all experiments,
it must end now.

972
01:06:02,271 --> 01:06:03,437
What must end?

973
01:06:03,521 --> 01:06:06,521
Beach clubs permits are being renewed
at the end of the month.

974
01:06:06,604 --> 01:06:08,687
And the major here has power of attorney.

975
01:06:09,271 --> 01:06:10,604
See this briefcase?

976
01:06:10,687 --> 01:06:13,562
It contains papers
which guarantee that you,

977
01:06:13,646 --> 01:06:16,146
who's sitting here owning nothing,

978
01:06:16,229 --> 01:06:18,771
end up with two beach clubs
of your choice.

979
01:06:19,812 --> 01:06:23,271
It'd set you up
for the next three generations.

980
01:06:23,354 --> 01:06:26,437
You said it yourself,
you do the same things there,

981
01:06:26,521 --> 01:06:29,062
bar, card games…
You just do it here and not on the sea.

982
01:06:29,146 --> 01:06:30,479
What's the difference?

983
01:06:30,562 --> 01:06:33,854
None, except for the permits
we'll give you.

984
01:06:33,937 --> 01:06:36,812
You might say,
"I don't pay goddamn taxes there."

985
01:06:36,896 --> 01:06:40,146
Do you think anyone does here?
Come on, Giorgio.

986
01:06:48,562 --> 01:06:50,229
What the hell…

987
01:06:52,271 --> 01:06:54,187
This is serious, you know!

988
01:06:56,062 --> 01:06:58,687
I'm trying to save your goddamn island!

989
01:07:00,646 --> 01:07:03,271
Attention, please, everyone.

990
01:07:03,354 --> 01:07:05,437
Mr. President, may I say it?

991
01:07:05,521 --> 01:07:06,604
As you wish.

992
01:07:06,687 --> 01:07:10,146
Okay. As you know, tonight,
we kept the island to ourselves

993
01:07:10,229 --> 01:07:12,104
for a special Council of Ministers,

994
01:07:12,187 --> 01:07:14,604
as special as the news
I'm about to give you.

995
01:07:14,687 --> 01:07:19,187
Our President, Giorgio Rosa,
has finally agreed,

996
01:07:19,271 --> 01:07:22,729
that from tomorrow the island
will officially be able to grant

997
01:07:22,812 --> 01:07:24,937
citizenship to all applicants.

998
01:07:25,646 --> 01:07:28,646
What are you clapping for?
That wasn't the news. Stop!

999
01:07:28,729 --> 01:07:32,604
That wasn't the news,
just an official communication.

1000
01:07:32,687 --> 01:07:37,979
The real news is
that we have printed the first passport,

1001
01:07:38,062 --> 01:07:40,812
and we have agreed to assign it

1002
01:07:40,896 --> 01:07:43,562
to the one among us
who has never owned one. So…

1003
01:07:44,396 --> 01:07:46,521
Rudy, this is for you.

1004
01:07:48,271 --> 01:07:51,229
Now, this calls for a round of applause.
Come on, guys!

1005
01:07:52,271 --> 01:07:54,521
-Well done, Neumann!
-GIve me a hug.

1006
01:08:03,771 --> 01:08:07,271
We're hoping that
with the increased military presence,

1007
01:08:07,354 --> 01:08:08,854
things will settle.

1008
01:08:08,937 --> 01:08:11,229
We're hoping
to regain control of the universities,

1009
01:08:11,312 --> 01:08:13,146
since there's only one left.

1010
01:08:13,229 --> 01:08:15,687
I know. These are hard times.

1011
01:08:15,771 --> 01:08:19,187
But you shouldn't worry,
you're doing a great job,

1012
01:08:19,771 --> 01:08:23,104
and we're all very happy here.

1013
01:08:23,187 --> 01:08:24,604
Thank you, Emanuele.

1014
01:08:24,687 --> 01:08:26,062
Well, Giovanni,

1015
01:08:26,146 --> 01:08:29,562
I'll see you again in two weeks, as usual.

1016
01:08:29,646 --> 01:08:32,562
-Sure.
-Try to rest a little.

1017
01:08:32,646 --> 01:08:35,604
You're looking a little gray.

1018
01:08:35,687 --> 01:08:38,021
I could really do with a vacation.

1019
01:08:41,604 --> 01:08:42,646
Don't forget this.

1020
01:08:43,562 --> 01:08:44,812
Excuse me, Giovanni,

1021
01:08:44,896 --> 01:08:48,521
since you're here,
there's something I'd like to mention.

1022
01:08:48,604 --> 01:08:53,812
Especially considering the exposure
that it's getting in the tabloids.

1023
01:08:53,896 --> 01:08:56,146
ROSE ISLAND
A SMALL STATE OFF RIMINI

1024
01:08:56,854 --> 01:08:58,937
Look, Emanuele, we're working on it.

1025
01:08:59,021 --> 01:09:01,937
I'm sure you are, but times have changed.

1026
01:09:02,521 --> 01:09:05,979
I used to be able to filter the news,

1027
01:09:06,062 --> 01:09:09,937
but now our Holy Father
wants to be informed first-hand.

1028
01:09:10,021 --> 01:09:12,979
He reads all the papers
first thing in the morning.

1029
01:09:13,062 --> 01:09:18,021
I caught this one
and removed it from the stack,

1030
01:09:18,521 --> 01:09:21,187
but had he seen this,
it would've gotten ugly.

1031
01:09:21,271 --> 01:09:22,604
Giovanni,

1032
01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:24,646
this is a bare ass.

1033
01:09:25,437 --> 01:09:27,937
Do you get it, Giovanni,
an ass in the newspaper.

1034
01:09:28,562 --> 01:09:30,979
You tell me if you think this is okay.

1035
01:09:31,062 --> 01:09:34,312
Of course not, but my dear Emanuele,

1036
01:09:34,396 --> 01:09:37,521
we don't really want
to start a case about an ass.

1037
01:09:37,604 --> 01:09:39,021
It's not about the ass itself,

1038
01:09:39,104 --> 01:09:43,937
which I think is well-proportioned, nice,
but what the ass represents.

1039
01:09:44,021 --> 01:09:47,937
An ass on an island where,
from what I gather,

1040
01:09:48,021 --> 01:09:49,937
you can do what you want.

1041
01:09:50,021 --> 01:09:53,937
Do you get it, Giovanni?
An ass and everything you want.

1042
01:09:54,646 --> 01:09:55,937
Giovanni,

1043
01:09:56,021 --> 01:09:59,062
with an ass, can you do anything you want?

1044
01:10:02,729 --> 01:10:05,354
No. I'll tell you. You can't.

1045
01:10:06,229 --> 01:10:09,062
Otherwise, this country
would be out of our control.

1046
01:10:09,687 --> 01:10:10,521
Sure.

1047
01:10:13,729 --> 01:10:17,396
The truth is,
they're outside our territorial waters.

1048
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:21,687
-So outside of our jurisdiction.
-Like I said, it's just a small issue.

1049
01:10:50,437 --> 01:10:51,521
Where's Franco?

1050
01:10:55,271 --> 01:10:56,729
What the hell are these?

1051
01:11:00,271 --> 01:11:03,562
My dear Giovanni, I wasn't expecting you.

1052
01:11:03,646 --> 01:11:06,062
Had you told me,
we could have met at the cafe.

1053
01:11:06,146 --> 01:11:08,479
It's so messy here.

1054
01:11:08,562 --> 01:11:10,521
-What the hell are these letters?
-Nothing…

1055
01:11:10,604 --> 01:11:13,354
Requests to relinquish
Italian nationality, Mr. President,

1056
01:11:13,437 --> 01:11:15,104
in favor of Rose Island.

1057
01:11:15,187 --> 01:11:18,979
No, not really.
I mean, it doesn't work like that.

1058
01:11:19,062 --> 01:11:21,437
They can't just write in
and we cancel their citizenship.

1059
01:11:21,521 --> 01:11:24,687
It's not a subscription to
Famiglia Cristiana that you just cancel.

1060
01:11:24,771 --> 01:11:27,937
And most of the letters
are written in such poor Italian!

1061
01:11:28,021 --> 01:11:29,771
-Don't waste--
-How many are there?

1062
01:11:29,854 --> 01:11:34,062
About 300. The German Consulate called,
and they've received about 100,

1063
01:11:34,146 --> 01:11:36,146
France 30, and the US four.

1064
01:11:36,229 --> 01:11:39,604
Just four in the States, Giovanni.
They don't give a damn about them.

1065
01:11:39,687 --> 01:11:40,979
They flopped over there.

1066
01:11:41,062 --> 01:11:44,812
Franco, I've had enough of this shit.

1067
01:11:44,896 --> 01:11:50,604
The letters, parliamentary interrogations,
asses that can't do what they want.

1068
01:11:50,687 --> 01:11:53,271
-Asses what?
-You have to fix this now.

1069
01:11:53,354 --> 01:11:56,437
Even if you have to swim there
with a screwdriver between your teeth

1070
01:11:56,521 --> 01:12:01,271
to unscrew that goddamn platform
bit by bit!

1071
01:12:01,354 --> 01:12:04,021
Franco, we've known
each other for 30 years,

1072
01:12:04,104 --> 01:12:06,937
but you've never seen me truly pissed off.

1073
01:12:08,521 --> 01:12:09,979
Tell me you understand.

1074
01:12:10,812 --> 01:12:12,687
I understand, Giovanni. I do.

1075
01:12:27,021 --> 01:12:27,854
Rosa!

1076
01:12:29,437 --> 01:12:30,437
Rosa!

1077
01:12:32,187 --> 01:12:33,479
It's Battistini.

1078
01:12:34,146 --> 01:12:35,562
He wants to talk to you.

1079
01:13:13,396 --> 01:13:16,062
Nothing. It's going to rain tomorrow too.

1080
01:13:16,146 --> 01:13:21,312
We have to start building the roof
for the second floor as soon as we can.

1081
01:13:21,396 --> 01:13:24,146
And then we have to extend the canopy.

1082
01:13:24,937 --> 01:13:26,562
Giorgio, are you listening?

1083
01:13:26,646 --> 01:13:28,146
Did you think about heating?

1084
01:13:28,229 --> 01:13:30,896
It's important.
We'll freeze to death in a month.

1085
01:13:30,979 --> 01:13:32,562
We have to find a solution.

1086
01:13:32,646 --> 01:13:34,896
Rudy… What do you think?

1087
01:13:34,979 --> 01:13:37,437
Well… I don't know, guys.

1088
01:13:37,937 --> 01:13:39,604
An island is a summer place.

1089
01:13:39,687 --> 01:13:42,896
In my experience,
it's hard to attract guests in the autumn.

1090
01:13:42,979 --> 01:13:46,604
What do you mean it's hard?
This is an independent state.

1091
01:13:46,687 --> 01:13:49,812
We can't shut down for the season.
We have citizens now.

1092
01:13:49,896 --> 01:13:51,812
What about you, Franca? What do you think?

1093
01:13:51,896 --> 01:13:55,354
I'm almost six months pregnant.
I don't know how much longer I can stay.

1094
01:13:55,437 --> 01:13:59,271
We've been talking about
our first natural-born citizen for months!

1095
01:13:59,354 --> 01:14:02,562
The midwife said she won't come.
She says it's too dangerous.

1096
01:14:02,646 --> 01:14:05,437
She can't be bothered, more like.

1097
01:14:05,521 --> 01:14:08,104
-Don't worry. I'll find someone else.
-You, Pietro?

1098
01:14:08,979 --> 01:14:10,271
What are your plans?

1099
01:14:10,771 --> 01:14:13,396
Come on,
what kind of plans can Pietro have?

1100
01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:14,312
Come on, guys.

1101
01:14:14,396 --> 01:14:18,604
Let's try to be a bit positive.
Being negative doesn't help.

1102
01:14:18,687 --> 01:14:19,729
What did they offer you?

1103
01:14:19,812 --> 01:14:20,812
So the roof--

1104
01:14:23,187 --> 01:14:24,354
What did you say?

1105
01:14:25,729 --> 01:14:27,146
What did they offer you?

1106
01:14:37,854 --> 01:14:39,104
Wait a minute,

1107
01:14:39,187 --> 01:14:41,687
am I the only one
who wasn't offered anything?

1108
01:14:41,771 --> 01:14:44,646
-Enough, Maurizio.
-What do you mean "Enough, Maurizio"?

1109
01:14:44,729 --> 01:14:49,104
You knew about this and didn't tell me?
What did they offer you?

1110
01:14:49,187 --> 01:14:52,229
You're using the baby excuse,
but what did they offer you?

1111
01:14:52,312 --> 01:14:56,021
You even had the guts to make up excuses.
What were you offered?

1112
01:15:25,687 --> 01:15:27,479
-Hi, Mom.
-Hi.

1113
01:15:44,896 --> 01:15:47,146
I've never watched daytime TV.

1114
01:15:48,646 --> 01:15:49,937
I'm sorry, Dad.

1115
01:15:50,562 --> 01:15:51,604
It's my fault.

1116
01:15:53,062 --> 01:15:54,729
I didn't think they'd go this far.

1117
01:15:59,312 --> 01:16:00,729
What did they offer you?

1118
01:16:04,771 --> 01:16:05,687
Two beach clubs…

1119
01:16:07,604 --> 01:16:08,979
of my choosing.

1120
01:16:10,312 --> 01:16:11,354
Two beach clubs.

1121
01:16:15,062 --> 01:16:17,896
We made all those sacrifices
to pay for your education…

1122
01:16:19,854 --> 01:16:22,229
and now you're going to be
a beach club manager.

1123
01:16:25,854 --> 01:16:29,687
There's always a time
when you have to say yes.

1124
01:16:30,437 --> 01:16:31,312
Isn't there?

1125
01:16:32,562 --> 01:16:33,771
That's what you say.

1126
01:16:39,979 --> 01:16:44,521
They said my performance was below
the standard expected by the company.

1127
01:16:46,854 --> 01:16:48,854
I've never taken an extra day off,

1128
01:16:49,687 --> 01:16:51,812
and I haven't called in sick
in five years.

1129
01:16:53,187 --> 01:16:56,604
I've always done what I was asked to do.

1130
01:17:02,354 --> 01:17:03,437
Say no, Giorgio.

1131
01:17:06,104 --> 01:17:07,437
Say no this time too.

1132
01:17:35,187 --> 01:17:38,437
Excuse me. I'm really sorry.

1133
01:17:39,729 --> 01:17:42,104
Excuse me. I beg your pardon.

1134
01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:45,187
Excuse me. I'm sorry.

1135
01:17:47,187 --> 01:17:48,396
Could you move over?

1136
01:17:49,021 --> 01:17:52,104
Could you move over?
It's urgent. I have to… Sorry.

1137
01:17:52,979 --> 01:17:54,062
I'm really sorry.

1138
01:17:55,562 --> 01:17:56,979
Thank you. Sorry.

1139
01:17:57,562 --> 01:17:59,437
I'm really sorry. Thank you.

1140
01:17:59,521 --> 01:18:00,937
What are you doing here?

1141
01:18:01,021 --> 01:18:03,062
I've been looking for you. Where were you?

1142
01:18:03,146 --> 01:18:05,396
Do you know Carlo,
the man I'm about to marry?

1143
01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:08,271
Carlo! Nice to meet you. I'm Giorgio.

1144
01:18:08,354 --> 01:18:10,396
Gabriella's told me all about you.

1145
01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:11,687
Carlo. Nice to meet you.

1146
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:14,604
-What's up, sweetheart?
-Nothing, don't worry.

1147
01:18:16,062 --> 01:18:18,146
Listen, it's not a disco.

1148
01:18:18,229 --> 01:18:21,229
It's not a disco at all.
It's a real state, a free one.

1149
01:18:21,312 --> 01:18:23,312
So real that they're now attacking us.

1150
01:18:23,396 --> 01:18:26,021
So now you have to fight my case.

1151
01:18:26,104 --> 01:18:28,729
Okay. Sorry, honey. I'll be right back.

1152
01:18:29,312 --> 01:18:30,146
Let's go.

1153
01:18:32,021 --> 01:18:35,562
-I'm sorry, it's an urgent matter.
-Excuse us, please. Sorry.

1154
01:18:37,937 --> 01:18:40,854
You shouldn't have written to the UN.
You pissed them off.

1155
01:18:40,937 --> 01:18:44,146
I wanted to prove
that we are a free and independent state.

1156
01:18:44,229 --> 01:18:45,771
Yes, you're free geographically,

1157
01:18:45,854 --> 01:18:49,187
but an Italian citizen remains so
even outside territorial waters.

1158
01:18:49,271 --> 01:18:51,312
Not if they choose otherwise.

1159
01:18:51,854 --> 01:18:53,979
That's why we started issuing passports.

1160
01:18:54,062 --> 01:18:55,687
That's exactly the point.

1161
01:18:55,771 --> 01:18:58,729
You could be right
but they'd never admit it

1162
01:18:58,812 --> 01:19:00,604
as it could set a dangerous precedent.

1163
01:19:00,687 --> 01:19:02,979
So? Who can help me?

1164
01:19:03,562 --> 01:19:05,104
I don't know, maybe a priest.

1165
01:19:05,187 --> 01:19:09,104
Come on! There must be someone,
a judge, an agency, I don't know.

1166
01:19:09,187 --> 01:19:11,937
A bloody King Solomon
who deals with cases like these!

1167
01:19:12,021 --> 01:19:15,229
The Council of Europe in Strasbourg
handles disputes between states.

1168
01:19:15,312 --> 01:19:18,146
Perfect, let's go then.

1169
01:19:18,229 --> 01:19:19,146
Where?

1170
01:19:19,229 --> 01:19:20,229
To Strasbourg!

1171
01:19:20,312 --> 01:19:23,854
Giorgio, private citizens
cannot go to the Council of Europe.

1172
01:19:23,937 --> 01:19:27,271
But I have a state,
and I'm going with my lawyer, you.

1173
01:19:27,354 --> 01:19:29,812
International law is your field.

1174
01:19:31,062 --> 01:19:33,521
I'm offering you
the adventure of a lifetime.

1175
01:19:33,604 --> 01:19:36,062
To save an independent state.

1176
01:19:37,187 --> 01:19:38,021
Will you come?

1177
01:19:40,312 --> 01:19:41,187
Giorgio…

1178
01:19:51,104 --> 01:19:52,021
Fine.

1179
01:20:09,812 --> 01:20:13,104
IMPOUNDED VEHICLE

1180
01:21:01,771 --> 01:21:02,646
And so…

1181
01:21:03,271 --> 01:21:04,104
I ended up here.

1182
01:21:05,062 --> 01:21:07,062
"And so I ended up here."

1183
01:21:16,687 --> 01:21:18,146
Is that all?

1184
01:21:20,146 --> 01:21:21,021
Yes.

1185
01:21:26,312 --> 01:21:27,187
Thank you.

1186
01:21:53,062 --> 01:21:57,562
Major, accept my congratulations
on behalf of the Italian people.

1187
01:21:57,646 --> 01:21:59,354
It wasn't an easy task.

1188
01:21:59,437 --> 01:22:01,187
Thank you, Minister.

1189
01:22:01,271 --> 01:22:03,646
How much did it cost us?

1190
01:22:04,312 --> 01:22:06,021
They're four poor souls, sir.

1191
01:22:06,104 --> 01:22:09,271
We got away with a bar,
one club permit, one passport,

1192
01:22:09,354 --> 01:22:11,062
and a sailing boat.

1193
01:22:11,146 --> 01:22:13,854
And what about what's his name, Orlandi?

1194
01:22:14,646 --> 01:22:16,312
Maurizio Orlandi.

1195
01:22:16,396 --> 01:22:21,062
He's an alcoholic. All he does is drink.
It's pointless talking to people like him.

1196
01:22:21,146 --> 01:22:22,979
Well done, Major.

1197
01:22:31,812 --> 01:22:33,354
Why are you whispering?

1198
01:22:33,437 --> 01:22:34,937
To avoid bothering you, sir.

1199
01:22:35,021 --> 01:22:38,187
Whispering bothers me.
What did you tell him?

1200
01:22:38,271 --> 01:22:40,229
Nothing important, Minister.

1201
01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:45,229
No… I don't like the face you pulled.
What did he tell you?

1202
01:22:48,646 --> 01:22:49,812
Giorgio Rosa…

1203
01:22:50,437 --> 01:22:52,021
is at the Council of Europe.

1204
01:23:00,979 --> 01:23:02,687
It doesn't mean anything, sir.

1205
01:23:02,771 --> 01:23:05,604
He's just sightseeing.
They don't see private citizens.

1206
01:23:05,687 --> 01:23:10,562
The Council of Europe decided to see him
after he spent a week in the lobby.

1207
01:23:10,646 --> 01:23:15,687
They called an emergency meeting,
and Giorgio Rosa gave his version.

1208
01:23:19,812 --> 01:23:20,729
Fine.

1209
01:23:34,812 --> 01:23:37,312
It's incredible.
I don't know how you did it.

1210
01:23:37,396 --> 01:23:39,812
You told an incredible story.

1211
01:23:39,896 --> 01:23:44,062
Whatever the outcome,
this will go down in history.

1212
01:23:44,146 --> 01:23:48,146
You have no idea
what is about to happen here today.

1213
01:23:48,229 --> 01:23:49,104
Translate.

1214
01:23:49,187 --> 01:23:53,812
They will start a dossier on it,
and they will review the case. Go on.

1215
01:23:53,896 --> 01:23:57,021
Basically, the Council of Europe
will deliberate on your island.

1216
01:23:57,104 --> 01:23:58,021
It went well?

1217
01:23:58,104 --> 01:24:00,771
Can someone please answer the phone?

1218
01:24:01,396 --> 01:24:05,479
So, Giorgio,
you should not let your guard down.

1219
01:24:06,062 --> 01:24:08,187
Maybe we should talk
to some legal experts.

1220
01:24:08,271 --> 01:24:10,646
Can someone answer the phone?

1221
01:24:12,771 --> 01:24:13,604
Hello?

1222
01:24:16,521 --> 01:24:17,354
Yes.

1223
01:24:24,104 --> 01:24:25,021
Mr. Tomà.

1224
01:24:25,646 --> 01:24:26,521
It's urgent.

1225
01:24:26,604 --> 01:24:28,812
Not now, get a message. I'll call back.

1226
01:24:29,437 --> 01:24:31,979
No… It's the Italian Minister
of Internal Affairs.

1227
01:24:45,937 --> 01:24:47,354
It's not for you.

1228
01:24:47,979 --> 01:24:50,937
He wants to talk to Mr. Rosa.

1229
01:25:21,687 --> 01:25:22,729
Hello?

1230
01:25:22,812 --> 01:25:24,562
When I was a boy,

1231
01:25:25,062 --> 01:25:28,146
I had one passion:

1232
01:25:28,229 --> 01:25:29,896
cycling.

1233
01:25:29,979 --> 01:25:32,062
I was able to perfectly combine

1234
01:25:32,146 --> 01:25:35,729
my political activity
with some decent results

1235
01:25:35,812 --> 01:25:38,479
in some local cycling competitions.

1236
01:25:39,229 --> 01:25:42,396
Then suddenly, I had to quit.

1237
01:25:43,771 --> 01:25:48,271
In 1947, I quit cycling for good,

1238
01:25:48,854 --> 01:25:50,437
because…

1239
01:25:50,521 --> 01:25:53,396
every God-given day,

1240
01:25:53,979 --> 01:25:57,437
myself and some 551 poor idiots,

1241
01:25:58,437 --> 01:26:00,062
had to write

1242
01:26:00,729 --> 01:26:03,604
a list of numbered sentences,

1243
01:26:04,396 --> 01:26:08,229
which would become
the foundation of this republic

1244
01:26:08,312 --> 01:26:09,771
which was about to be born.

1245
01:26:10,771 --> 01:26:13,021
You have to think of everything, you know.

1246
01:26:13,104 --> 01:26:15,771
Consider all variables.

1247
01:26:15,854 --> 01:26:18,729
If you get one wrong, it all falls apart,

1248
01:26:18,812 --> 01:26:23,229
and the freedom
we had fought so hard for, will vanish.

1249
01:26:25,146 --> 01:26:27,771
Reading those little sentences today,

1250
01:26:28,521 --> 01:26:30,854
I believe we got our odds right.

1251
01:26:32,146 --> 01:26:32,979
And you,

1252
01:26:33,604 --> 01:26:38,937
you insignificant piece of shit,

1253
01:26:39,021 --> 01:26:43,354
would like to be the exception
to that perfect calculation?

1254
01:26:43,437 --> 01:26:47,854
You talk about freedom,
but yours is a conditional freedom.

1255
01:26:47,937 --> 01:26:50,146
Absolute freedom simply scares you.

1256
01:26:50,229 --> 01:26:54,771
You don't hate me for what I've done,
but for what I could do.

1257
01:26:55,354 --> 01:27:00,104
I'm outside territorial waters.
It doesn't concern you.

1258
01:27:00,187 --> 01:27:03,104
You act like a big man,
but then you write to the UN,

1259
01:27:03,187 --> 01:27:05,562
and you go to the Council of Europe.

1260
01:27:05,646 --> 01:27:11,229
I'd say you're not really an anarchist
if you need someone to acknowledge you.

1261
01:27:11,312 --> 01:27:14,937
You've built a 400-square-meter-platform

1262
01:27:15,021 --> 01:27:18,562
with four idiots
and you think that's a state?

1263
01:27:19,104 --> 01:27:23,062
But you haven't got the slightest idea
of what it takes

1264
01:27:23,146 --> 01:27:25,771
to secure the freedom

1265
01:27:25,854 --> 01:27:27,104
of 40 million people.

1266
01:27:27,187 --> 01:27:30,271
I won't take lessons
from someone who had a man fired

1267
01:27:30,354 --> 01:27:33,229
after 30 years just to intimidate me!

1268
01:27:33,312 --> 01:27:36,104
Do yourself a favor, get away from there.

1269
01:27:36,187 --> 01:27:38,104
Save yourself the humiliation.

1270
01:27:38,187 --> 01:27:40,479
You're on your own,
and you haven't a hope.

1271
01:27:40,562 --> 01:27:44,479
The Council of Europe
has just agreed to examine my case,

1272
01:27:44,562 --> 01:27:47,687
and the consultations
start tomorrow morning.

1273
01:27:47,771 --> 01:27:52,979
Stock up with lawyers, asshole,
because this story has just started.

1274
01:27:53,062 --> 01:27:54,396
And you can't stop me.

1275
01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:56,937
All right, dickhead.

1276
01:27:57,021 --> 01:27:59,396
You founded a state? So did I.

1277
01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:02,396
But do you know the difference
between our two states?

1278
01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:06,937
I have an arsenal that can blow up
your shitty island to pieces!

1279
01:28:07,021 --> 01:28:08,396
Run back to Rimini quickly,

1280
01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:12,271
or you'll miss
the best fireworks you'll ever see!

1281
01:28:24,687 --> 01:28:26,354
I have to go back to Rimini.

1282
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,479
The Council will meet in two days.

1283
01:28:29,562 --> 01:28:32,187
There might not be an island in two days!

1284
01:29:06,229 --> 01:29:08,687
Assault squad ready in 15 minutes.

1285
01:29:09,271 --> 01:29:11,104
Instructions to follow.

1286
01:29:11,187 --> 01:29:15,396
This is not a drill.
I repeat, this is not a drill.

1287
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:20,312
Assault squad ready in 15 minutes.
This is not a drill.

1288
01:29:29,604 --> 01:29:32,479
Let's be honest,

1289
01:29:32,562 --> 01:29:37,271
today's modern weddings always end
with a gift of "The Hunter" to the guests.

1290
01:29:37,354 --> 01:29:39,229
The one you're holding

1291
01:29:39,312 --> 01:29:42,312
is the crown jewel
of the '68-'69 collection,

1292
01:29:42,396 --> 01:29:44,479
"The Hunter and his Bloodhounds."

1293
01:29:44,562 --> 01:29:48,229
We also have the basic version
without the bloodhounds.

1294
01:29:48,312 --> 01:29:50,146
Sure, it'll save you some money,

1295
01:29:51,312 --> 01:29:53,646
but it's less elegant and symbolic.

1296
01:29:53,729 --> 01:29:55,479
What shall we do, sweetheart?

1297
01:30:11,646 --> 01:30:12,687
What's this?

1298
01:30:12,771 --> 01:30:15,396
It's a replica of Rose Island in silver.

1299
01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:18,437
Just a souvenir,
we sell lots of them to tourists.

1300
01:30:19,187 --> 01:30:23,771
If you like it,
we also have it in wrought iron.

1301
01:30:35,646 --> 01:30:36,854
Hello, Mom?

1302
01:30:37,604 --> 01:30:38,521
Were you sleeping?

1303
01:30:40,146 --> 01:30:43,104
Yes, sure. It's 11 p.m. I'm sorry.

1304
01:30:43,771 --> 01:30:45,146
No, nothing.

1305
01:30:45,771 --> 01:30:48,271
It was just to tell you I'm fine.

1306
01:30:48,354 --> 01:30:51,104
I'm on the freeway.
I'm coming back to Rimini.

1307
01:30:51,771 --> 01:30:56,104
I've been to France.
Do you remember? For the island issue.

1308
01:30:57,062 --> 01:30:59,271
It's actually going really well.

1309
01:31:00,187 --> 01:31:02,271
Tomorrow they're going to meet to deci--

1310
01:31:04,104 --> 01:31:05,354
Yes, Mom. I ate.

1311
01:31:06,271 --> 01:31:08,354
Yes, I had a sandwich at the gas station.

1312
01:31:09,771 --> 01:31:11,104
Yes, they make sandwiches.

1313
01:31:11,979 --> 01:31:13,729
They stuff them with things.

1314
01:31:15,937 --> 01:31:18,104
I'm fine, Mom. I…

1315
01:31:19,396 --> 01:31:20,729
just wanted to say hi.

1316
01:31:23,896 --> 01:31:25,229
No, don't wake him up.

1317
01:31:26,229 --> 01:31:27,271
It's fine.

1318
01:31:28,062 --> 01:31:29,062
Give him my love.

1319
01:31:31,896 --> 01:31:33,104
Bye, Mom. Goodnight.

1320
01:32:03,854 --> 01:32:05,187
Can it fit two people?

1321
01:32:10,771 --> 01:32:13,312
I mean the boat. Can it fit two people?

1322
01:32:13,937 --> 01:32:14,771
"Boat"…

1323
01:32:15,271 --> 01:32:17,479
This one here? Yes, sure…

1324
01:32:19,187 --> 01:32:22,271
It was just my way of saying
I'm coming with you.

1325
01:32:24,854 --> 01:32:25,687
With me?

1326
01:32:26,271 --> 01:32:27,104
Okay.

1327
01:32:27,937 --> 01:32:30,896
I called Strasbourg.
They said there was a problem.

1328
01:32:30,979 --> 01:32:33,687
Your mom said you were heading back.
I thought you'd be here.

1329
01:32:33,771 --> 01:32:34,812
Can you hurry?

1330
01:32:34,896 --> 01:32:37,479
-I see… I couldn't understa--
-Can you hurry up?

1331
01:32:38,437 --> 01:32:41,021
-Sorry, but--
-No. Clearly, I'm not getting married.

1332
01:32:41,104 --> 01:32:45,062
Otherwise, I wouldn't be here.
But please, don't make me regret it.

1333
01:33:11,979 --> 01:33:13,937
It's strange seeing it so empty.

1334
01:33:17,062 --> 01:33:20,062
And yet they hate it, even if it's empty.

1335
01:33:22,937 --> 01:33:24,646
What do you think they'll do?

1336
01:33:27,187 --> 01:33:28,521
I don't know, Giorgio.

1337
01:33:29,229 --> 01:33:32,479
Something to prove their point,
a symbolic act, you know.

1338
01:33:36,687 --> 01:33:38,354
Thanks for being here with me.

1339
01:33:47,396 --> 01:33:49,062
You know, now it doesn't…

1340
01:33:50,104 --> 01:33:51,271
look like a…

1341
01:33:52,646 --> 01:33:53,854
like a disco.

1342
01:33:55,646 --> 01:33:58,021
Finally, you admit it!

1343
01:33:58,104 --> 01:33:59,896
It took a long time!

1344
01:33:59,979 --> 01:34:02,146
Is it true what they say?

1345
01:34:04,437 --> 01:34:05,479
What do they say?

1346
01:34:07,271 --> 01:34:08,979
That you did all this for me.

1347
01:34:11,062 --> 01:34:13,312
That I did all this for you?

1348
01:34:15,604 --> 01:34:19,062
If we really want to go back
to the genesis of the idea,

1349
01:34:20,354 --> 01:34:25,062
it's a type of concept,
a search for absolute freedom.

1350
01:34:25,146 --> 01:34:25,979
So it's always--

1351
01:35:27,687 --> 01:35:30,187
So much for a symbolic act.

1352
01:35:51,187 --> 01:35:53,896
An honor to have you, Admiral.
The ships are in position.

1353
01:35:53,979 --> 01:35:55,104
Civilians on the island?

1354
01:35:55,187 --> 01:35:57,729
Two. Giorgio Rosa
and an unidentified girl.

1355
01:35:57,812 --> 01:36:00,354
Perfect. We'll wait for Rome
to green-light the attack.

1356
01:36:00,437 --> 01:36:04,271
Let's get moving. Load the cannons.
I want to be home for dinner.

1357
01:36:04,354 --> 01:36:07,271
Here's the bar.
As you can see, it's already equipped.

1358
01:36:07,771 --> 01:36:09,562
This year the licenses are on hold,

1359
01:36:09,646 --> 01:36:12,479
but you could turn it
into a restaurant in the future.

1360
01:36:12,562 --> 01:36:16,229
Now, if you can sign here,
so I can get back to City Hall.

1361
01:36:16,312 --> 01:36:17,479
It's so busy today.

1362
01:36:19,146 --> 01:36:23,271
You'll have to tell me
how you got the permit so quickly.

1363
01:36:23,354 --> 01:36:24,937
It's been on hold for years.

1364
01:36:27,562 --> 01:36:28,896
What's going on today?

1365
01:36:29,562 --> 01:36:32,771
They say they're blowing up Rose Island.

1366
01:36:33,896 --> 01:36:36,562
If you could please sign now.
I need to leave.

1367
01:37:01,771 --> 01:37:04,021
Good morning, everyone, here we are.

1368
01:37:04,104 --> 01:37:06,271
The showdown
between the Italian government

1369
01:37:06,354 --> 01:37:08,021
and what is known as Rose Island…

1370
01:37:08,104 --> 01:37:11,062
It seems we're back
to the days of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

1371
01:37:11,146 --> 01:37:12,687
Will Italy have its own Bay of Pigs?

1372
01:37:12,771 --> 01:37:15,062
We're in front of Rose Island…

1373
01:37:27,271 --> 01:37:28,146
Come in.

1374
01:37:32,812 --> 01:37:34,479
"Seaside government."

1375
01:37:36,021 --> 01:37:38,562
We worked 20 hours a day,
including Sundays,

1376
01:37:38,646 --> 01:37:41,312
and here, it looks like
we were lying on a beach sunbathing

1377
01:37:41,396 --> 01:37:43,354
and eating spaghetti with clams.

1378
01:37:43,437 --> 01:37:45,062
What can I say, Giovanni?

1379
01:37:45,146 --> 01:37:47,979
We always complain
this is a country with a short memory.

1380
01:37:48,062 --> 01:37:49,937
At least this time it's in our favor.

1381
01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:53,646
Look, I just need a quick signature.

1382
01:38:00,104 --> 01:38:01,062
Is this a joke?

1383
01:38:02,771 --> 01:38:06,521
Sorry, but I'm the one
who invented the end-of-term prank.

1384
01:38:06,604 --> 01:38:09,646
I'll even tell you when.
Four years ago, when Aldo resigned.

1385
01:38:09,729 --> 01:38:14,312
We brought him a declaration of war
on Albania. You should've seen his face.

1386
01:38:15,146 --> 01:38:18,104
We had a blast.
Giulio cried with laughter.

1387
01:38:18,187 --> 01:38:20,062
Who are we bombing this time?

1388
01:38:20,146 --> 01:38:22,396
Rose Island, Giovanni.
It must be destroyed.

1389
01:38:22,479 --> 01:38:25,646
And how are you planning to do that?
With surface-to-air missiles?

1390
01:38:25,729 --> 01:38:27,646
I gave orders to arm the Andrea Doria.

1391
01:38:28,187 --> 01:38:30,562
I just need your signature for the attack.

1392
01:38:38,271 --> 01:38:40,062
You deployed a battleship from Venice?

1393
01:38:41,646 --> 01:38:42,687
Are you crazy?

1394
01:38:42,771 --> 01:38:46,104
Giovanni, you told me to fix the issue
by any means necessary.

1395
01:38:46,187 --> 01:38:50,604
I asked you to solve a problem,
not to bomb the island.

1396
01:38:51,187 --> 01:38:52,479
And to be honest,

1397
01:38:52,562 --> 01:38:55,479
do you know what the best thing
about an outgoing government is?

1398
01:38:55,562 --> 01:38:57,354
That it's no longer our problem.

1399
01:38:57,437 --> 01:38:59,812
After all, it's just an island,
a summer place.

1400
01:38:59,896 --> 01:39:02,896
If they open again in June,
it'll be the next government's problem.

1401
01:39:02,979 --> 01:39:04,104
Who cares?

1402
01:39:04,187 --> 01:39:07,021
Giorgio Rosa appealed
to the European Council.

1403
01:39:07,104 --> 01:39:09,271
And they agreed to look into his case.

1404
01:39:09,896 --> 01:39:11,312
Do you know what that means?

1405
01:39:11,854 --> 01:39:15,312
If they accept his appeal,
the island will be a fully-fledged state,

1406
01:39:15,396 --> 01:39:17,062
just steps away from the communists.

1407
01:39:18,937 --> 01:39:20,812
And am I supposed to sign an act of war?

1408
01:39:21,687 --> 01:39:25,521
Giovanni, we are the only ones left
who can do something about this.

1409
01:39:26,521 --> 01:39:27,687
Trust me.

1410
01:39:39,312 --> 01:39:41,896
Warships are surrounding the island.

1411
01:39:43,312 --> 01:39:44,646
Nothing gets past you.

1412
01:39:46,896 --> 01:39:48,229
We have to do something.

1413
01:39:49,396 --> 01:39:50,771
Besides drinking, you mean?

1414
01:39:50,854 --> 01:39:52,271
We have to go and defend it.

1415
01:39:53,896 --> 01:39:57,271
Sorry to disappoint you,
but they won't let the Laura Madre pass.

1416
01:39:58,021 --> 01:39:59,271
Not the Laura Madre, no,

1417
01:40:00,146 --> 01:40:01,229
but all the others…

1418
01:40:01,896 --> 01:40:02,937
maybe.

1419
01:40:45,104 --> 01:40:48,187
Operations, something's fast approaching,
36 degrees east.

1420
01:40:48,687 --> 01:40:50,271
What do you mean "something"?

1421
01:40:50,354 --> 01:40:52,937
I don't know,
lots of small things, like a little fleet.

1422
01:40:53,021 --> 01:40:55,687
Water-skiing.
It's a water-skiing competition.

1423
01:40:56,771 --> 01:41:00,062
-During a military operation?
-Authorized by the port authority.

1424
01:41:00,146 --> 01:41:02,854
I don't bloody care!
Stop them immediately!

1425
01:41:02,937 --> 01:41:04,854
They all paid the entry fee months ago.

1426
01:41:04,937 --> 01:41:07,479
The port authority won't accept liability
or refund them.

1427
01:41:12,396 --> 01:41:13,229
Fine.

1428
01:41:14,562 --> 01:41:15,396
Fine.

1429
01:41:16,271 --> 01:41:18,312
Tell them we're turning now!

1430
01:41:18,396 --> 01:41:20,396
Neumann, we're turning!

1431
01:41:46,604 --> 01:41:48,437
Rome has authorized the attack, sir.

1432
01:41:48,521 --> 01:41:50,396
Perfect. Call the admiral, come on.

1433
01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:52,812
Sir, we have another problem.

1434
01:41:55,271 --> 01:41:58,396
I told you the water-skiing competition
was a good idea.

1435
01:42:00,646 --> 01:42:02,771
I'm sorry, my friend. Really.

1436
01:42:03,979 --> 01:42:06,146
Nice to meet you. I'm Neumann.

1437
01:42:06,729 --> 01:42:08,312
Nice to meet you. Gabriella.

1438
01:42:08,396 --> 01:42:12,437
I'm the organizer of this competition
that helped avoid a military occupation.

1439
01:42:13,437 --> 01:42:16,854
Next time, we'll organize it
for the end of August. It's freezing now!

1440
01:42:16,937 --> 01:42:18,562
If there is a next time.

1441
01:42:19,271 --> 01:42:20,604
Neumann's here now!

1442
01:42:20,687 --> 01:42:23,646
Let me talk to them.
I've been through war before.

1443
01:42:24,146 --> 01:42:26,354
Sorry, I need to put some clothes on.

1444
01:42:31,229 --> 01:42:32,062
So,

1445
01:42:32,562 --> 01:42:35,479
our objective today,
is to wipe out that pile of junk--

1446
01:42:35,562 --> 01:42:37,104
Admiral, we have a problem.

1447
01:42:37,187 --> 01:42:39,479
The civilians on the island
have multiplied.

1448
01:42:39,562 --> 01:42:42,729
What do you mean "multiplied"?
They're not bloody bacteria!

1449
01:42:42,812 --> 01:42:46,062
They used the water-ski competition
as a cover to get on the island.

1450
01:42:47,812 --> 01:42:49,271
Mr. Carrisi,

1451
01:42:49,979 --> 01:42:52,521
you're very lucky to be this young.

1452
01:42:53,021 --> 01:42:56,604
You know what they did to people like you
on the hellish routes to Benghazi?

1453
01:42:56,687 --> 01:42:57,729
I'm sorry, sir.

1454
01:42:57,812 --> 01:42:59,854
Aim the cannons,
and fire two warning shots.

1455
01:42:59,937 --> 01:43:01,396
They're just spineless kids.

1456
01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:04,396
They'll run away
as soon as they smell the gunpowder.

1457
01:43:04,479 --> 01:43:05,312
Yes, sir.

1458
01:43:17,646 --> 01:43:18,854
What do we do now?

1459
01:43:20,646 --> 01:43:22,146
What do you say, Rudy?

1460
01:43:22,812 --> 01:43:23,812
God knows.

1461
01:43:24,729 --> 01:43:27,937
"God knows"? You always go on about
how you've been to war.

1462
01:43:28,021 --> 01:43:29,854
I didn't think they'd aim the cannons.

1463
01:43:32,271 --> 01:43:34,187
They're only trying to scare us.

1464
01:43:36,104 --> 01:43:37,187
I'm not buying it.

1465
01:44:33,687 --> 01:44:36,146
Soldiers… they're all the same.

1466
01:44:36,646 --> 01:44:40,146
They act threatening,
but they don't have the balls to shoo--

1467
01:45:12,312 --> 01:45:14,812
Admiral, the civilians are still there,
holding hands.

1468
01:45:15,979 --> 01:45:17,437
They're challenging us, sir.

1469
01:45:19,896 --> 01:45:21,062
Shoot closer.

1470
01:45:23,229 --> 01:45:25,562
Admiral, I'd advise against it.
It's too risky.

1471
01:45:25,646 --> 01:45:27,479
Shoot closer.

1472
01:45:36,979 --> 01:45:40,437
Well, I guess I was wrong.
We should go now. At least we tried.

1473
01:45:41,062 --> 01:45:42,021
I'm not moving.

1474
01:45:42,104 --> 01:45:44,854
Rudy's right. They're firing cannons.

1475
01:45:44,937 --> 01:45:46,354
Staying here is suicide.

1476
01:45:47,437 --> 01:45:48,729
Think of the baby.

1477
01:45:49,271 --> 01:45:50,271
What do you mean?

1478
01:45:50,771 --> 01:45:52,729
What about
the "first natural-born citizen"?

1479
01:45:52,812 --> 01:45:55,479
You're still going on about that?

1480
01:45:55,562 --> 01:45:57,354
It was bullshit, a joke!

1481
01:45:58,187 --> 01:46:01,146
Giorgio, listen, I know how soldiers--

1482
01:46:01,229 --> 01:46:03,729
It was good knowing you, Rudy.

1483
01:47:19,521 --> 01:47:21,396
Send in the Raiders.

1484
01:50:28,396 --> 01:50:29,396
Listen…

1485
01:50:31,937 --> 01:50:34,021
about your dad's TV that time,

1486
01:50:34,854 --> 01:50:35,687
I'm sorry.

1487
01:50:37,521 --> 01:50:38,646
I never apologized.

1488
01:50:42,354 --> 01:50:43,812
It's okay. Who cares.

1489
01:50:44,729 --> 01:50:46,854
The important thing's to change the world.

1490
01:50:56,021 --> 01:50:57,229
Or at least try to.

1491
01:51:32,646 --> 01:51:36,896
The Council of Europe declared
it couldn't deliberate on the dispute

1492
01:51:36,979 --> 01:51:40,104
between the Italian State
and the free Republic of Rose Island

1493
01:51:40,187 --> 01:51:42,854
as the island
was outside European territorial waters,

1494
01:51:42,937 --> 01:51:45,562
essentially acknowledging it
as an independent state.

1495
01:51:46,354 --> 01:51:49,687
To prevent similar events
from happening again,

1496
01:51:49,771 --> 01:51:52,229
the UN moved the borders
of international waters

1497
01:51:52,312 --> 01:51:54,771
from 6 to 12 nautical miles,
all around the world.

1498
01:51:55,854 --> 01:51:59,229
To this day,
the destruction of Rose Island

1499
01:51:59,312 --> 01:52:02,521
is the one and only invasion
perpetrated by the Italian Republic.

1500
01:52:03,896 --> 01:52:08,187
Giorgio and Gabriella
spent the rest of their lives together.
