(Rock music on the floor)
Hello.
(Electronic music in the venue)
(Running water)
Still nothing?
Nothing.
Be patient, daughter.
(Music)
Come closer, will you? You're too far away.
And why do you want me to come closer? Let's see.
So you can give me a hit of that. Mmm...
All yours. Very kind.
(LAUGHS)
Lower the camera.
So?
Like this? (NODS)
More? (WITH PLEASURE) Yes.
Fuck.
Shit.
(Short beep)
(MOAN)
Pussy!
(TAKE A DEEP BREATH)
You better end up thinking about me.
(Song "Broken Dreams" by Kitty110)
So we have that the magnitude of two forces
or various electrical forces in contact with two charges
is inversely proportional
to the product of the magnitudes of both charges
and inversely proportional...
(ROBOTIC VOICE) Andrea, pay attention to the board, dammit.
(PROFESSOR) The force would be repulsion
If both charges had the same charge
and it would be an attraction with two charges with opposite poles...
(ROBOTIC VOICE) Sorry, it won't happen again.
(TEACHER) It exerts the same force as...
(ROBOTIC VOICE) She will be forgiven at tonight's fucking party.
(PROFESSOR) ...Q1 and Q2 would duplicate an atom
If any of the charges doubled their value...
(ROBOTIC VOICE) I've met up with Pau.
Aunt, we can't see you anymore.
(PROFESSOR) ...the concept of force as a vector concept...
(ROBOTIC VOICE) You're such a bitch...

(Mobile notice)
(MOBILE) My love, we're still in Sydney partying.
(Song "Pop N' Pills" in the room)
Look, you're so hot that I think everything you do is fine.
So have fun, but no fucking. Always yours. Andrea.
Oh!
(SIGH)
(Mobile notice)
Look, you're so hot that I think everything you do is fine.
Have fun, but don't fuck. Always...

How annoying.
Look, you're so hot that I think everything you do is fine.
Have fun, but no fucking. Always yours. Andrea.
Oh!
(Suspenseful music)
(Distant conversation in the living room)
That she changes. The girl is not calm.
Nothing needs to change.
Did you go to my room a little while ago? I peeked in for a moment.
This has arrived.
My mother gave me that name and we wanted to respect it.
You told me it was in Buenos Aires.
We went there to pick you up. What does it say there?
I was born in La Plata.
We went to Buenos Aires.
They were waiting for us at a hospital and...
and they quickly handed us a baby, which was you.
Who was it? A woman, a nurse.
And where was my mother? That's what we already told you, Andrea.
The nurse told us she didn't want to meet us.
He expressly requested it.
That and being adopted in another country, far from Argentina.
- Andrea, it's not easy to say something like that to a girl.
And what did you expect?
If he hadn't escaped from his uncle at Christmas,
you wouldn't have told me.
Well, I don't know, until you were older. Until you turned 40 or what?
We did the best we could.
Andrea, what's wrong?
It says here that my mother has died.
Just a month ago.
I'm sorry, Andrea.
Can I see it please? No.
If you had told me before...
(Ringtone)
(The call is cut off)
(OFF) Her name was Marie.
She was French.
He had me when he was 26
(MOBILE) His family also had to go to Argentina for work.
(NODS) Maybe.
What else did he say?
Hey, what else did he say?
Pau. What's wrong?
He killed a girl, my age.
(SURPRISED) How? Yes.
And at 20 years old she leaves prison and they find her dead
in the same house where she was arrested.
Fuck, my love.
And your parents... what do they say?
Nothing, I don't know. I'm not talking to them much.
It really pisses me off not to be there.
You already called me. Come here with me.
It's not long before you come back. It doesn't matter.
I have arrived at class.
Okay, but call me later, please.
Good night, my love. Good morning, my love.
(Wind)
But without fucking.

That he wasn't there, Pau. Not in the store, not on the street, not anywhere.
It can't be, it can't be.
It's impossible, Andrea. Please think about it.
Yeah. No, no, it can't be. I know.
I don't understand anything, I don't understand what's happening.
Okay, tell me your passport, please. No, Pau, I told you no.
I have exams in a month.
What kind of nonsense is that? Exams?
Don't you realize how serious this is? Don't you realize?
Or else, it doesn't matter, I'll go to Madrid. To hell with it, it doesn't matter.
My love, I miss you so much. Damn, I love you so much.
I love you.
Me too.
You would be here on Saturday already, the day after tomorrow.
Andrea...
Come on. Come on, okay. I'll give you the passport.
Wow, damn, that was so hard for you.
The tough chick, fuck. Okay, wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Is that Tom? No, he just stepped out.
Let's see, please tell me your passport. It's there.
But there is no one, my love. Yes, there is.
Look in your box. There, in the corner. I can see it.
Hosts!
No longer!
Stick, Stick, Stick! Get out of here! It's...! Stick, no, no, no!
Get out of there! No, no! Please, no! Pau! No, no!
Pau! Pau! No! Where are you? My love, where are you, please!
Please! Please! Where are you? Please tell me something!
Please! Where are you?
Please! Please, please!
Please! Please help me! I'm asking you for help!
No way, they record our calls on a landline.
- Guys, the police say no. Why would they lie to us?
- You're so innocent. - Okay, that's it.
He was the one who followed me.
But how was I supposed to know where Pau was?
It's him.
He's like an old man.
Pau couldn't see him,
but I do.
Only on the screen.
The police say I'm still in shock, but I swear it's true.
I'm scared all the time.
I'm afraid he's here, now,
sitting with us.
What are you doing?
See if it is.
- Honey, there's no one there. We can't see him.
But it is.
Ok, I don't understand shit,
But don't worry, we'll fix it.
(Music)
(MOUTH SOUNDS)
Have you slept at all?
No.
I feel like it's here.
(SARA) Andrea, there's no one.
You're scaring me.
And what scares you? If you don't believe me.
(SIGH)
(TAKE A DEEP BREATH)
(Knock on the door)
¿Andrea?
(Door opens)
Andrea, daughter, you have to get up.
Dear.
Come on, let's take a shower.
Come on, come on.
Yes. Come on... I can't.
Yes, yes you can. Come on, let's go take a shower, honey.
Two months have already passed.
No, not the mobile.
Mom, give it to me. There's no one here.
I'm on my cell phone. No, no, no.
Please, please. Listen to me for a moment, please.
Come on.
You don't understand.
(Horns)
I can't even imagine
what you're going through, Andrea, darling.
Losing someone like that, in that way so...
But you have your whole life ahead of you,
full of projects and friends.
You need to get your life back, honey,
look ahead.
I have a friend who knows someone at the French Embassy.
and he told me that they have contacted your mother's family,
of Mary.
It seems that he had a sister in Brussels.
(CLICKS TONGUE) Andrea...
Had you told me everything that happened when you went to Argentina?
They told you something about my mother.
The person we were with told us that Marie had...
some kind of disorder.
What was wrong with him?
Mother!
It seems that he was not mentally well.
I don't know anything else, really. I'm sorry.
Would you like us to try to contact your aunt in Brussels?
This is finally moving.
(Music)
(Avant-garde music in the house)
Andrea, are you okay?
What happened, honey?
Do you want to go?
I'm missing it all.
I don't want to continue like this.
Come here, go on.
We missed you.
You're going to have to help me. Of course, whatever it takes.
- Well, we can start with some vodka. Mmm?
So be it.
(THEY LAUGH)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! What an idiot.
What the fuck...?
(WOMAN CRYING ON PHONE)
Aunt, how strange.
But what is that?
It has stopped.
Andrea, what's wrong?
Nothing.
I'll be right back.
Andrea.
- What the fuck are you doing? - Didn't you want us to help you?
I want to see something. What?
I just don't know. Dude...
I'm going to go up in a moment.
Damn, but what for?
I think I've seen this building before.
and it doesn't make any sense.
- Well, where do you think you saw it?
In Argentina.
What are you doing?
Andrea, who lives there?
Nobody.
(Ghostly music)
But didn't you say that nobody lived there?
Just in case.
Let's go.
Wait for me here.
(WHISPERING) I hate you.
There is no light.
Where are you going?
Andrea, Fri.
Don't go away.
There's someone there.
Where?
There. Let's go, please.
I don't see anything.
It's him! Run, run! Come on!
(SCREAMING)
¡Corred!
- Andrea, Andrea, Andrea! - Andrea, Andrea!
Hello! Open up! Help!
Please help!
Please! Is there anybody?
- Please! - Andrea!
- Andrea, please! - Please, Andrea, open up!
- Andrea! - Open the door! Open!
Andrea, open up!
Open!
¡Andrea!
(SHOUTS)
(MAN) What happened in the house?
(WOMAN) When?
- On the night of the party, what happened?
(WOMAN) Nothing happened.
- You've been different since that day. - You're crazy.
(MAN) Maybe.
(WOMAN) And you have a bad memory.
- Why? What should I remember?
(WOMAN) You should remember the rules.
(MAN) Fuck the rules.
(WOMAN) Then there is only chaos.
(ARGENTINE ACCENT) Okay.
Who's up for it?
I thought it was not bad.
In fact, I think I kinda liked it.
- "I actually think I kind of liked it." What did you like?
- The story. Yes, the story is not bad.
and there are some other plans...
interesting.
And it goes... more or less quickly.
Is that true?
I stop being two people in a bed talking,
of decent pace.
(TEACHER) Who else?
- Yes, well, and then there is the issue of the femme fatale.
Let's see, in what sense?
Well, I think it's clear that Cami wants to say something more with that, right?
What do you want to tell us? Let's see.
I don't know, she's much smarter than me.
I would have to watch it again, but I liked it.
(TEACHER) Do you want to add anything, Camila?
No, nothing.
(Stamp)
(TEACHER) Cami.
Camila.
How was it?
I don't know, okay.
Well, the short is not good, you know that.
He wasn't good at the role and the shoot didn't help him.
It is no longer clear where the story takes place. Where is it? Massachusetts?
Silver is not.
Have you thought about anything for your next job?
I'm thinking, but I don't have anything concrete yet.
Well, don't think so much. Go to the warehouse,
Grab a camera and go out and find something real. Find the real world.
I have some time before the next class.
Do you want to come to the office?
Can you tell me what you thought? Can I help you?
I can't. Sorry.
Ok.
(Vehicle engine)
(Dramatic music)
Excuse me, could you open the door for me?
Could you open the door for me, please?
Cami, are you having dinner with us? No, I have things to do.
(Music)
(Door opening)
(GIRL) Get out of here! Get out of here!
(Girls screaming)
(CINE) Shut the fucking door!
(Sad piano music)
(Phone ringtone)
(FRENCH ACCENT) Hello?
Hello?
Who is it?
(Music)
Open up, Javier.
Well,
who's up for it?
Nobody is up for it?
Cami, did this girl know you were recording her?
Of course.
Ok. So what we saw, what is it? It's a fiction,
It's not a documentary, right?
It's a... rare piece.
It's sad, but at the same time it's scary.
I like it.
You don't often see things like this.
The bodyguard again.
Anyone else?
- Well, who goes now? - Me, Cuevas.
Dale.
Today's work...
Sorry, aren't you going to tell me what you think?
There's not much to say, Cami.
If you want to talk, come by the office and we'll talk.
No, I don't want to go to your office.
I want you to tell me what you think. I don't believe you that you didn't like it.
It seems to me to be the most amateur short you've made.
You broke all the rules,
I don't know if it's to look modern or what, but it doesn't work.
Out-of-focus shots don't work,
the supposed tension does not work
and of course the assembly doesn't work.
I didn't understand anything because it didn't provoke anything in me.
I find this exhibitionist and superficial. Can I continue?
It is not necessary.
(TEACHER) Dale, Fede.
(FEDE) My exercise was the search for cinema from hatred...
Oh, Cami.
Did something happen with Cuevas?
No, nothing.
This actress, where did you get her from?
She's a friend.
I would love to work with her, she's amazing.
He doesn't like working with people he doesn't know.
Well, introduce her to me. She's in France now, she's from there.
When I get back, maybe.
Don't get all worked up, he's a fascist.
Shall we go out for a drink? I'll treat you.
I don't feel like it.
Better alone crying, watching Polish movies, right?
Wait.
Did you really like the short?
No.
Where are you?
Come on, girl, you're not filming anything.
Why don't you film this for me? (LAUGHS)
(WOMAN CRYING)
¿Alberto?
That?
(SPEAKS IN FRENCH, ANGRY) I don't understand you. What are you saying?
(SPEAKS IN FRENCH)
No. What are you? Idiot? What are you talking about?
Who are you talking about? You're crazy, girl. What are you talking about?
Talk to me in Spanish.
(SPEAKS IN ANGRY FRENCH)
(Tension music)
I'm also lurking
because I have a friend who wants to...
An actor friend who wants to act.
I don't know if I like the way he acts that much and...
I was more eager to do something...
A couple, you see? Or something else... I don't know.
Did you see my friend, the actress in the short?
Yes. He's back.
If you want, I'll give you the number.
Do you know that I already met her?
No.
Yes, in the "Blast".
What? The "Blast", the bowling alley.
You have to go out more. You can't be a good director.
If all you do is stay locked in your room.
What is it? A bar?
Sure, a bowling alley. It's like a bar, big,
and some people dance, drink alcohol...
Yes, I think I saw something like that in a movie. Could it be?
Yeah, well, in person is better. Don't tell me!
We can go later if you want.
Dale. Will Marie go?
What's wrong? Are you jealous?
Could be.
You could have warned me that she's crazy about tying up the girl.
Did they end up at your house?
So you met the old man?
We were alone.
Are you sure? (NODS)
What he did tell me
She didn't care about being an actress.
I asked him about your short.
He didn't even remember.
How odd.
Don't worry, I didn't say anything, okay?
About what?
That she didn't know you were recording her.
Hey, what does he know?
Well, she was probably very drunk.
and that's why he doesn't remember.
(NODS) He really likes beer.
And the vodka, the "merca", the pills...
Did you make a list? The kids.
The kids?
It seems that he took half the money.
And you to the other half, right?
(LAUGHS)
Thank you.
But okay, enough of the French.
You, how are you?
As always. You?
As usual.
No. What's wrong with you?
What's wrong with you? Why the hell did you bring me here?
What? Do you like me or not?
No.
(Music with very marked percussion)
Hello.
How are you?
(ESNIFA)
I know you.
No, I don't think so.
Well, I feel that way.
(ESNIFA)
(Psychedelic music)
(The music stops)
(Boos)
Oh no, shit!
What do you do in life, Camila?
I study cinema.
(SURPRISED) Mmm.
To be an actress? No, a director.
Are you good?
I can be there, but I'm far from there.
I met a guy who also studies film.
Tall, handsome, shaved...
Do you know him? No.
Better yet, he's a bit of an idiot.
And what do you do in life?
No, I don't do anything.
Are you interested in moving to the neighborhood?
No.
You look at that building a lot.
Yeah. I don't know, it gives me a bad vibe.
Have you ever thought
sneak into an empty house and no one finds you?
Do you have a boyfriend?
No, thank you.
Well, you sure have one thing.
And you?
No.
But I would tell you, especially if it didn't do me any good.
Do you want to tell me something?
No. He...
What are we doing tomorrow?
Take me to a new club I don't know.
We can go to the movies.
Mmm.
Dale.
And your parents, where are they?
China, Chile, Cyprus...
My... My old man is an idiot,
he's stupid...
I don't care about my old man.
Oh.
No.
Please don't go.
There's a T-shirt over there.
What, girl?
That?
I think I'm going crazy.
No, don't say that.
It's true.
We are cursed.
Us?
I will take care of you.
Hello.
I'm Camila, a friend.
(FRENCH ACCENT) Do you know where Marie is?
There he came back, he told me.
(IN FRENCH) Lisbeth, go out and play in the garden.
(IN SPANISH) Get dressed.
Yes, sorry.
Did he tell you where he was going?
No.
She is supposed to be taking care of her sister today,
but once again he fails in his duty.
Marie loves Lisbeth very much.
How do you see it?
I see her better.
Marie needs help.
I can help you.
Professional help.
What do you think is wrong with him?
I'm starting to think it's the same as her mother.
And what's wrong with your mother?
He always avoids talking about the subject.
That's private, family business.
Well, when I see her,
Tell him I've already taken care of Lisbeth.
Or better yet, don't tell him anything.
She knows how to go out on her own, right?
(Music)
(MOANS)
Hello hello.
Are you doing anything now? What happened to you?
Nothing. Did you want to go to the movies?
What do you mean, nothing?
Come on, let's go to the movies... Who did that to you?
I don't know. Yes, you know.
Why are you hanging out with that guy? Who is he?
What kind? No. No, no, no.
Camila, please wait.
Camila, stop.
Is Adolfo the father? Or is he the old man's?
How do you know that?
I hope it's not the old man, honestly.
What are you saying? What old man?
The one who is with you all the time.
What are you taking about?
Come on.
Over here.
(MOTHER) Cami. We're in the room.
What is this?
(IN FRENCH) Fucking pig. (IN SPANISH) What is this?
Wait a second. No. You disgust me.
I'm asking you, one second. (FRENCH) Turn that off!
Look, look.
It's him, isn't it?
Did he hit you?
Don't know.
Let's go to the police.
Let's go.
I was all alone.
I was alone.
(SCARES)
(SOBBING)
(MOTHER) Hello. That's Cami's friend.
Are you OK?
Let me see you. What happened to you there?
What happened?
What's wrong, sweetheart?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
What did you do? What happened?

It's here, huh?
No, further ahead. Over there.
(IN FRENCH) Hello? Lisbeth?
(IN FRENCH) It's me. What happened to you?
Nothing happened to me.
I have to tell you something.
You have to listen to me, okay?
OK.
From now on you have to be very careful.
Okay? I...
Give me the phone. Go up to your room.
Marie, where are you? Dad.
Honey, listen... Dad, I have to tell you something.
Honey, please come home right away.
Dad, I have to tell you something.
It's very difficult. Please listen to me.
Listen to me for real.
They say you've done a lot of harm to a friend of yours.
I don't understand anything. Tell me what happened.
It wasn't me.
Police say they found
your bag in her house, in her room.
It wasn't me, it was him.
Wait. Him? Who, Marie? I don't know who he is.
Honey, you're scaring me.
You scare me.
Please tell me where you are. Marie, tell me where you are and I'll pick you up.
I'm going to tell you. But listen to me, okay?
Come on, I'm listening.
He's a man, an old man.
You can't see it, but you can record it.
What are you telling me?
I know, I know. But he's always with me and he was with Mom.
Mom died because of him.
He started coming with me when Mom died.
What are you telling me? Marie, what man?
Don't know.
But that's why Mom died.
Honey, no. You're in shock.
Come home and tell me what happened.
Mom left to protect us from him.
No, Marie, your mother... committed suicide.
¡No!
He was not well, he left home and committed suicide.
(SOBBING)
Don't say that.
I can't take it anymore.
I can't handle this.
Dad...
Dad, think what you want about me,
but you have to take good care of Lisbeth.
Don't talk about her. Okay?
I'm scared he'll come after her. Your sister won't be like you.
No no.
Tell him to put it on.
You're not going to talk to your sister.
Please, I want to talk to him.
Leave your sister alone, that's all I ask of you.
I'll call you back, okay? And I'll explain everything better.
No, go home, Marie. You need help.
I beg you, come home.
Take care of Lisbeth, Dad. Marie, tell me where you are.
Take care. Honey, don't go.
Okay? Honey, please don't hang up on me.
Marie, please! Goodbye.

I was with her when she died...
and he also wants to talk to you.
Thanks again for agreeing to meet you.
I really think this is important to understand
what happened to your sister and my daughter,
because, when Andrea told us,
we couldn't believe her.
Or we didn't want to.
