00:00:23 Martin.
00:00:27 Martin.
00:00:30 Martin, wake up.
00:00:32 BASED UPON A REAL STORY
00:00:38 GROSSING BORDERS
00:01:21 Here you are.
00:01:27 Now!
00:01:29 Wake up, Martin!
00:01:33 How can you want to act the fool
00:01:36 I've been up for four hours.
00:01:39 - You got a smoke?
00:01:41 Hey, I'm watching you!
00:01:43 Where are you going?
00:01:45 I don't know yet.
00:01:47 I might use the money
00:01:50 Or I might go abroad,
00:01:53 And you can make money too.
00:01:56 But they say it's hard to get in.
00:01:59 My cousin went last year
00:02:02 I'm thinking about it. A few years there
00:02:18 It's never half as good
00:02:20 You'd miss the language,
00:02:31 You'll make it dizzy, love.
00:02:34 I don't want any more.
00:02:36 Didn't you hear?
00:02:37 Football players take it to score goals.
00:02:41 This child eats nothing.
00:02:43 The doctor said to take him
00:02:45 Shall we go see that?
00:02:48 - See what?
00:02:53 Gome on, Pablo.
00:02:55 Have a cookie, darling.
00:02:58 Gome on!
00:03:04 "SAN MANTIN"
00:03:06 THE HOME OF YOUR DREAMS
00:03:10 Here it is.
00:03:12 The shepherd was right.
00:03:27 And we just went to see it.
00:03:29 He'd never buy it.
00:03:32 And rightly so!
00:03:36 Pilar, the apartment
00:03:40 and Martin earns 1,300 a month.
00:03:43 But it's a steady wage,
00:03:46 Look at what I managed to save.
00:03:49 I don't know.
00:03:50 It's a lot of money for a place
00:03:54 so far out of Madrid.
00:03:55 It's not so far.
00:03:57 - Some day, this'll be Madrid too.
00:04:00 Not a chance.
00:04:03 It may be Madrid some day,
00:04:10 - Luisa...
00:04:12 Gan I borrow that dress
00:04:22 I've got no money,
00:04:27 Goodbye, Miss Azucena.
00:04:32 They fired you?
00:04:34 How could they do that?
00:04:36 Pablo, sit still or I'll wallop you.
00:04:40 Don't take it like that,
00:04:43 There are too many employees.
00:04:45 Other places are worse than us.
00:04:54 I left the basement clean,
00:04:56 now your father will fill it
00:05:00 Shall we prepare the whitebait
00:05:03 Pilar! Do you hear me?
00:05:06 Pilar, my mother's talking to you.
00:05:08 She's not talking because she's angry.
00:05:12 Yes, Amalia,
00:05:15 Then I'll start cleaning them.
00:05:18 And you be quiet.
00:05:19 You're always interrupting
00:05:22 Go up with your grandma.
00:05:23 Gome on, love.
00:05:26 It isn't the kid's fault.
00:05:29 - What did you want to tell me?
00:05:59 Good morning, father.
00:06:03 Are you up already?
00:06:05 Pilar told me you didn't
00:06:09 What do you expect?
00:06:10 And I'm so used to
00:06:13 I was wide awake at 6:30.
00:06:15 What'll you do?
00:06:17 Look for something.
00:06:19 Why not try Anselmo's workshop?
00:06:22 He was very pleased with you.
00:06:24 The pig?
00:06:25 No, he's an exploiter.
00:06:30 Lorenzo!
00:06:32 Wait a minute.
00:06:34 Go inside and close the door
00:06:38 or all the dirt will blow in.
00:06:43 Three weeks and I've found nothing.
00:06:47 Marcos was lucky.
00:06:49 A good mechanic like you
00:06:51 Hey, Martin!
00:06:54 - Hello, mother!
00:06:56 - Is anything wrong?
00:06:58 What is it you want to tell me?
00:07:00 - Tell him, Marcos.
00:07:02 I'm not with Pegaso anymore.
00:07:05 - They fired you.
00:07:07 - He was third in his year.
00:07:10 The first pulled a few strings,
00:07:12 What's up?
00:07:13 I wasn't fired.
00:07:16 What have you done?
00:07:17 Let him tell us.
00:07:18 - I've got a plan, father.
00:07:20 You and I are going to work
00:07:22 - What do you mean?
00:07:24 I've heard about a town called
00:07:26 - Uzwil...
00:07:27 Mari-Garmen!
00:07:29 They need milling mechanics.
00:07:32 and bring them to the Gonsulate.
00:07:34 What do you say?
00:07:35 Rubbish.
00:07:38 Like your father says, rubbish.
00:07:43 I don't see why
00:07:45 It costs you nothing here.
00:07:49 Don't get involved in their affairs.
00:07:52 I heard in the hotel
00:07:54 that Switzerland is the country
00:07:57 even better than Germany.
00:07:58 I think a franc is 14 pesetas.
00:08:00 I don't think it could be that much.
00:08:03 Anyway, I wouldn't
00:08:06 But we wouldn't be alone,
00:08:09 We're with them anyway,
00:08:10 and it'd only be for a year or so.
00:08:19 What?
00:08:21 I'd thought of it too.
00:08:37 Why are you shaving now?
00:08:39 You can do it in the morning.
00:08:41 It's habit.
00:08:43 And I know you like
00:08:53 Martin,
00:08:55 I have to tell you something.
00:08:56 And I've something to tell you.
00:08:59 I didn't know you were so keen
00:09:04 I have to get out of here.
00:09:07 When we got married,
00:09:10 and we've been down here 5 years.
00:09:12 You were born here,
00:09:14 but I can't get used to the basement.
00:09:16 We're in the center of Madrid.
00:09:18 What more do you want?
00:09:22 Do you remember
00:09:24 the day
00:09:25 you were fired?
00:09:27 From the factory?
00:09:29 - Yes.
00:09:31 I put a deposit on an apartment.
00:09:38 Ghrist Almighty!
00:09:43 You did what?
00:09:45 I put a deposit on an apartment.
00:09:49 You gave 6,000 pesetas?
00:09:52 But this isn't valid.
00:09:54 Without your husband's consent
00:09:58 and I signed nothing.
00:09:59 I'll go there tomorrow
00:10:02 Well,
00:10:04 you won't be able to.
00:10:08 We tried already
00:10:11 If we go back, it'll be worse.
00:10:13 Pilar, did you forge my signature?
00:10:18 Did you forge my signature?
00:10:20 Finish shaving.
00:10:22 From now on,
00:10:31 6,000 pesetas!
00:10:35 Where do you get that money?
00:10:37 I saved it.
00:10:39 You saved 6,000 pesetas
00:10:43 Yes, I did.
00:10:45 You say it as if
00:10:50 I count for nothing in this house.
00:10:59 - Are you very?
00:11:03 6,000 pesetas. Are you crazy?
00:11:07 How are we going to pay it?
00:11:39 Weren't you very...
00:11:42 very angry?
00:11:46 Yeah, but one thing
00:11:49 With you, nothing affects the other.
00:11:52 I'll go to the Swiss consulate
00:11:54 Whatever you want.
00:12:01 Gareful!
00:12:11 Did you leave the cases
00:12:14 A soldier is looking after them,
00:12:17 No, they'll be fine with the soldier.
00:12:19 The cases are on board.
00:12:21 You should get on,
00:12:24 Let them say goodbye.
00:12:26 You're crazy to go
00:12:29 - I'm worried.
00:12:31 In my new suit,
00:12:33 - It'll fit you like a glove.
00:12:35 Is your redundancy money
00:12:38 Yes, it's all here.
00:12:39 Try not to wrinkle your shirts.
00:12:42 But the only warm thing you've got
00:12:45 It's summer in Switzerland too.
00:12:47 But then it'll be winter.
00:12:49 To think that I don't know
00:12:52 I'll be back inside a year,
00:12:55 Son, remember that the sandwiches
00:12:59 You've told me a dozen times.
00:13:01 There are three with salami,
00:13:03 That mightn't be enough
00:13:06 I'm jealous that the Swedish girls
00:13:09 - They're Swiss, not Swedish.
00:13:12 Kiss me, no one's looking.
00:13:14 Behave yourself with the chicks.
00:13:17 You're a real wag, aren't you?
00:13:20 It's just a joke.
00:13:22 - What's a wag, mom?
00:13:25 - Have you got the number of the bar?
00:13:28 For the fifth time,
00:13:30 Isn't he smart? We've just got it
00:13:33 That's us!
00:13:35 Gome here, Martin.
00:13:36 Take care of them,
00:13:40 If things get tough,
00:13:42 come back, and to hell with it.
00:13:44 There'll always be
00:13:48 I know, father. Thank you!
00:13:50 Mother, give me a kiss!
00:13:52 - You'll miss the train.
00:13:56 I've told you, mother,
00:14:00 - Martin, the train's going.
00:14:04 - Write to me, Marcos!
00:14:07 Goodbye!
00:14:09 - Son, give me a kiss.
00:14:12 - Look after the kid.
00:14:14 Pablo, behave like a man!
00:14:24 Good evening. Tickets.
00:14:35 Transport police.
00:14:37 Identify yourselves.
00:14:55 Soldier, your permit.
00:14:58 I don't have it.
00:15:01 Gome with me.
00:15:34 No water, the toilet's blocked
00:15:39 The sea!
00:15:42 I've never seen it before.
00:15:45 I saw it during the war
00:15:49 Next stop: The French border.
00:15:55 Excuse me,
00:15:58 - You're going to Switzerland?
00:16:00 It's the Geneva train, on platform 2.
00:16:04 Thanks for the salami, it's terrific.
00:16:07 Eat up, we have to finish it.
00:16:09 The Swiss are fanatical
00:16:13 you can't bring this in.
00:16:14 - Where are you going?
00:16:17 A place called Uzwil.
00:16:25 - Are you sure it's in Switzerland?
00:16:27 Are you sure?
00:16:30 Yes.
00:16:31 I saw it on the map.
00:16:34 The north? That's the industrial area,
00:16:37 - A good area?
00:16:40 You've got work permits, right?
00:16:45 You don't have papers?
00:16:50 We waited two months
00:16:54 In the end,
00:16:58 That's how I got in the first time,
00:17:02 My cousin tried recently
00:17:05 Shit!
00:17:07 Gome on, eat up.
00:17:19 Good morning.
00:17:23 Shit!
00:17:25 Do you like it?
00:17:29 It's all green, like where I'm from,
00:17:32 but the mountains are higher
00:17:34 and better tended.
00:17:38 Those mountains are the Swiss Alps.
00:17:47 You'd better waken your friend.
00:17:50 If they don't want immigrants
00:17:54 Good morning, Lorenzo.
00:17:56 Really! Gome along, mother.
00:17:59 It says so clearly.
00:18:01 Well,
00:18:02 they're going as tourists.
00:18:04 They look nothing like tourists.
00:18:06 Love, they're not going
00:18:10 I don't know
00:18:12 There's plenty of work here.
00:18:15 Were you getting on that badly?
00:18:21 And you in your village?
00:18:38 Shit!
00:18:44 Dammit anyway!
00:18:52 Do you not have
00:18:55 Of course I do.
00:18:59 for people with work permits.
00:19:01 If you want to go in as tourists,
00:19:04 We've got enough for that.
00:19:07 I've got 15,000 and he's got 20,000
00:19:09 Hell, that's enough.
00:19:11 Anyway, we're not here to spend,
00:19:14 Right!
00:19:17 Two, two. Go on, you two.
00:19:24 Good luck!
00:19:35 And my family made the sausages
00:19:38 You still have a salami sandwich.
00:19:42 You still have a salami sandwich.
00:19:46 Tourists!
00:19:49 - The money!
00:19:51 - Were you counting the sandwiches?
00:20:06 I told you.
00:20:41 Holy shit!
00:20:46 And those two...
00:20:51 Good morning.
00:20:56 Maybe something's happened.
00:21:34 What was that about?
00:22:02 Martin, I think we're at the factory.
00:22:05 Thank you.
00:22:24 What's up? Is there no one
00:22:31 Look, there's a bicycle.
00:22:59 - Madrid. Spanish.
00:23:05 Yes, we've come to work,
00:23:18 He's saying something about a fair.
00:23:21 Maybe it's closed
00:23:25 How can a whole factory
00:23:28 That's what he said.
00:23:37 He's taking our cases.
00:23:39 - Let's go with him.
00:24:57 This must be a hotel.
00:25:09 She said something about a piano.
00:25:11 It can't be, but I understood
00:25:32 Yes, it's beautiful.
00:25:34 Very nice.
00:25:37 Nice!
00:25:56 We don't understand.
00:26:02 Oh, yes, goodbye!
00:26:12 What do you think?
00:26:13 Very nice.
00:26:14 And the room?
00:26:17 - You old...
00:26:26 Shit!
00:26:28 It's so cold!
00:26:37 Incredible!
00:26:39 We slept for almost twenty hours.
00:26:42 - we'd still be asleep.
00:26:44 Watch.
00:26:45 If you turn on this tap
00:26:48 you get cold water.
00:26:50 But if I turn on the other one...
00:26:52 Put your finger there.
00:26:54 - Shit!
00:26:56 And look at the size of the bathtub.
00:27:00 - You need to crap?
00:27:02 No matter, do it anyway.
00:27:05 Touch that.
00:27:07 What is it?
00:27:09 - It's for cleaning your ass!
00:27:17 So, the newspapers...
00:27:19 What do they use them for?
00:27:34 What?
00:27:48 - Goffee.
00:27:54 She's got a foul temper.
00:27:58 because this must cost...
00:28:01 - What are you doing?
00:28:03 Gan't I even have one roll?
00:28:05 Do you know what it costs?
00:28:08 Anyway, I've started it!
00:28:10 Then hide it.
00:28:11 - We haven't eaten for 24 hours!
00:28:15 - Dammit!
00:28:20 I never thought that emigrating
00:28:23 would be as tough as this.
00:28:26 How can you be so calm?
00:28:29 What if there are no jobs?
00:28:31 Back in Madrid
00:28:38 Whatever you say, love!
00:28:41 What did she say?
00:28:43 God knows.
00:28:45 Shall we go for a walk?
00:28:47 Sure.
00:29:06 They're in their bare feet.
00:29:08 But they don't look poor,
00:29:11 Maybe they're offering it up
00:29:14 What Virgin?
00:29:17 They must have some Virgin, right?
00:29:23 Shit, this would be great spot
00:29:26 But we don't have bathing suits.
00:29:28 If there was no one here,
00:29:31 If we wait they might leave.
00:29:33 Maybe.
00:29:56 Look, they don't need bathing suits.
00:29:59 Back home, I swam starkers
00:30:07 Shit!
00:30:08 Look at that lady!
00:30:12 The lady is naked.
00:30:17 They're all naked.
00:30:34 Here he comes.
00:30:51 He wants us to strip off.
00:30:53 Well, if we have to strip off,
00:30:56 What do you mean?
00:30:57 If they aren't embarrassed,
00:31:00 - You were in the army.
00:31:05 Gan you imagine your mother naked?
00:31:08 What mother?
00:31:10 Your mother, who else?
00:31:12 - Gan you imagine her naked?
00:31:16 I'm just saying
00:31:18 like that woman over there.
00:31:21 - Have you seen my mother naked?
00:31:23 You think I'd try
00:31:26 Do you think she'd go naked
00:31:29 I'm not saying that!
00:31:31 Martin, that's disgusting.
00:31:33 As if she'd go naked in front
00:31:37 Maybe she would,
00:31:39 It might be the local custom.
00:31:41 - You're making such a fuss.
00:31:46 Shitty little dog!
00:32:01 Shit!
00:32:09 Gome a bit closer.
00:32:16 Gold.
00:32:16 Very cold.
00:32:20 There are no blankets.
00:32:22 Two mattresses...
00:32:24 too much for us. Back hurts.
00:33:03 - Martin, the breakfast...
00:33:08 All right, Hanna.
00:33:10 How much the coffee cost?
00:33:16 Gollation, no. Rolls, breakfast.
00:33:19 Goffee, tea, in the morning, food...
00:33:22 - Goffee in morning?
00:33:24 Free!
00:33:25 - Shit.
00:33:28 Goffee free?
00:33:30 Yes, coffee free.
00:33:36 Ghrist almighty!
00:34:15 Are you the Spaniards
00:34:18 - Are you Spanish?
00:34:23 - Is there work in the factory?
00:34:26 What can you do?
00:34:28 We're milling mechanics.
00:34:30 Skilled operators.
00:34:31 Well, we'll see if that's true.
00:34:34 - It's what you all say.
00:34:38 He was third in his class.
00:34:40 Second.
00:34:41 I don't care.
00:34:43 If you're interested, be at the factory
00:34:46 Ghange your underwear.
00:34:49 There'll be a medical examination
00:34:52 The time you've been here
00:34:55 The factory will pay that.
00:35:07 "Dear Pilar,
00:35:08 The days fly past here.
00:35:10 When we arrived, we had...
00:35:12 We did a try-out in the factory
00:35:15 The factory is very big
00:35:17 and there are lots of foreigners,
00:35:20 We"ve become friends
00:35:21 with one called Tonino
00:35:24 There"s only one Spaniard,
00:35:29 This place is clean and pretty
00:35:31 From work to the guest house.
00:35:35 It"s very clean and the food
00:35:37 I know.
00:35:38 "I miss your fried eggs and chorizo
00:35:43 It was true about the money.
00:35:46 So we get
00:35:47 13,000 pesetas a month."
00:35:51 "Before we know, we"ll have
00:35:55 Give my regards to my parents
00:35:59 Remember to go to the estate agent
00:36:00 and get the receipts
00:36:03 A big kiss for everyone.
00:36:05 With love from Martin."
00:36:09 Luisa, add a bit more methanol.
00:36:11 The flame is going out
00:36:19 Is dad coming for Ghristmas?
00:36:21 - I don't think so.
00:36:24 No, darling, he isn't.
00:36:25 What if I ask that from Santa
00:36:29 Just in case, ask for both.
00:36:31 Now, give me your hand.
00:36:37 She asked if we wanted more coffee
00:36:39 Is that what she asked?
00:36:44 We were right to get the girls
00:36:46 to invite us to have some cakes.
00:36:48 They're happy to.
00:36:57 We should persuade them to have
00:37:01 It's the best place.
00:37:02 I was going to mention that.
00:37:05 Erika has invited me
00:37:07 for supper that night,
00:37:09 - with her family.
00:37:12 Why not ask
00:37:17 Me, no. I'm going to Naples,
00:37:20 Martin,
00:37:23 What?
00:37:26 Erika invited me to supper.
00:37:41 Mr. Schneider, the foreman,
00:37:43 I'd like to get to know him.
00:37:45 - You really don't mind?
00:37:48 Get going or you'll be late.
00:37:52 - Well, have a good time in Zurich.
00:37:56 They'll be picking me up any minute.
00:38:01 Good night, Martin.
00:38:08 Happy Ghristmas.
00:38:43 Well!
00:39:04 Yes, I won't lock the door
00:39:08 You'll get a fright some day.
00:39:17 Goodbye, Hanna.
00:39:19 Happy Ghristmas.
00:40:11 What's wrong?
00:40:14 Oh, Luisa!
00:40:17 I miss him so much.
00:40:24 As soon as I can, I'm going there.
00:41:07 Are you crazy?
00:41:09 Damn the!
00:41:14 What's up?
00:41:15 I couldn't stand not being able
00:41:18 Weren't you going to Zurich?
00:41:21 We're a right couple of party-goers.
00:41:24 Gome down, I've got a surprise.
00:41:26 Gome down!
00:41:58 You nearly killed me!
00:42:01 What's the surprise?
00:42:04 Happy Ghristmas!
00:42:06 - And the glasses?
00:42:10 Do you think I brought
00:42:14 You're a wimp!
00:42:18 Shit! It's frozen.
00:42:20 Is it cold?
00:42:25 It's good.
00:43:08 There's no one here.
00:43:10 Other people were
00:43:13 They left a few weeks ago.
00:43:37 Pilar?
00:43:46 Pilar!
00:43:50 Mother says you're not well.
00:43:54 I didn't want to tell her,
00:43:57 - What's wrong?
00:44:01 - For the apartment?
00:44:03 It was a swindle.
00:44:04 But, how? All of it?
00:44:07 All that Martin has sent
00:44:18 You look pretty.
00:44:20 No, at the dance.
00:44:23 Yes, of course.
00:44:24 I went to the police
00:44:26 We aren't the only ones.
00:45:06 Marcos, come on.
00:45:09 - No, they might be annoyed.
00:45:14 It's not like we were
00:45:17 The Swiss are really something.
00:45:21 We must be only ones who don't
00:45:24 Are they going to take long?
00:45:27 - I can pick up your wages for you.
00:45:30 Look, it's no secret
00:45:33 Why do you say that?
00:45:35 Mainly because it's true,
00:45:37 even though you seemed to think
00:45:42 - By the way...
00:45:43 Hanna, she's crazy about you.
00:45:46 She asked me
00:45:49 - What did you say?
00:45:51 - and you needed a cuddle.
00:45:55 You little guys from Madrid!
00:45:56 Hurry up!
00:45:58 Do you know why we're little?
00:46:02 not like others.
00:46:03 - One day I'll smash your face in!
00:46:09 Don't worry,
00:46:39 Well,
00:46:40 for Martin's birthday
00:46:42 and Hanna's invitation.
00:46:44 No, not at all,
00:46:55 When you come to Madrid, my girl,
00:46:58 I'll make you
00:47:02 It's a Spanish song, from Madrid.
00:47:08 Now it's the women
00:47:12 Yes, but...
00:47:13 Hell, go out and dance.
00:47:15 I'm going.
00:50:18 Remember what I told you?
00:50:20 You take the parcel,
00:50:23 close to the counter
00:50:26 Don't let them see you.
00:50:29 and we're bringing it
00:50:32 If they see it, will I go to jail?
00:50:34 No, children don't go to jail.
00:50:36 How do you know?
00:50:38 Look at their faces.
00:51:13 Excuse me...
00:51:19 Harmonie?
00:51:34 Give me a hand,
00:51:36 or are you going to stand there?
00:51:39 You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:51:43 What are you doing here?
00:51:46 It's a surprise for his birthday.
00:51:49 - He doesn't?
00:51:51 Where is he?
00:51:53 He's
00:51:55 in the factory.
00:51:57 You work Sundays?
00:51:59 Is today Sunday?
00:52:01 Then, no, we don't work today.
00:52:06 - It smells bad, mom.
00:52:09 But it's you, Pablito.
00:52:11 - And you?
00:52:13 Where are you coming from?
00:52:14 Me? From Mass.
00:52:18 - From Mass?
00:52:19 - Looking like that?
00:52:23 You're the one who smells bad.
00:52:24 What do you mean?
00:52:26 - Let me see.
00:52:31 Poop, poop!
00:52:32 Goddamn...
00:52:33 Marcos, for God's sake!
00:52:36 - Where have you been?
00:52:38 - My new raincoat!
00:52:40 - Is this the guest house?
00:52:43 Where are you going?
00:52:46 Hey, wait!
00:53:01 Incredible!
00:53:05 It's lovely!
00:53:11 It's all so lovely!
00:53:13 Are the rooms upstairs?
00:53:21 Pablito, you've got very big.
00:53:23 - No, you smell bad.
00:53:31 Which door is it?
00:53:32 Martin's?
00:53:44 Wouldn't you like some breakfast?
00:53:48 Is this it?
00:53:50 You're annoying me.
00:53:52 Get out of the way.
00:53:55 If you need me,
00:54:00 Pablo, wait here.
00:55:48 What are you doing, dad?
00:56:00 Pablito, son!
00:56:03 Is that you?
00:56:04 Yes, Martin, it's both of us.
00:56:09 Wait a minute...
00:56:37 What's she saying?
00:56:38 She's Hanna,
00:56:42 and she's brought breakfast for us.
00:56:46 For you and me.
00:56:49 Very kind.
00:56:50 Yes, the people here
00:56:56 Does the child want anything?
00:57:01 Gola-cao.
00:57:02 They don't have that here.
00:57:07 An Ovo Maltine.
00:57:09 Thank you.
00:57:10 I fix this. You not worry.
00:57:13 Gome on!
00:57:21 Tell me, what the hell
00:57:25 Happy birthday, dad.
00:57:32 Didn't you want a stew?
00:57:34 Your son risked his life
00:57:36 to bring you all the ingredients
00:57:49 Have you sorted out
00:57:53 I can"t cook without pots, you know.
00:57:56 Can you just leave me alone?
00:57:58 What"s wrong?
00:58:00 You"re very pale.
00:58:04 Prepare another room for Martin.
00:58:06 His wife and son
00:58:13 You know what?
00:58:18 It"s better that it"s happened now.
00:58:40 Shit, a year's savings!
00:58:42 A year's savings!
00:58:45 Now what do we do?
00:58:48 We start over again.
00:58:50 What matters is we're together.
00:58:53 Look, if we both work
00:58:56 You're not going to work.
00:58:58 Why not? Other women do.
00:59:01 Because I don't want you to work!
00:59:02 Because I'm perfectly capable
00:59:06 Listen, calm down.
00:59:07 Look...
00:59:10 If I don't find a job,
00:59:13 I'm on a tourist visa.
00:59:15 But I can tell you this,
00:59:20 Especially after seeing all this.
00:59:27 You see, son.
00:59:29 Maybe we'll be a bother for dad
00:59:32 Don't be silly.
00:59:35 And don't involve the child.
00:59:37 You're not bothering me
00:59:41 What can you do?
00:59:43 You don't have a trade.
00:59:44 Do you think you get money
00:59:48 Don't worry, I'll find something.
00:59:54 Be careful with the cars!
00:59:57 We don't want any accidents.
01:00:05 It's here, dad!
01:00:07 What's here?
01:00:09 I found an apartment to rent.
01:00:11 Pilar, please,
01:00:15 Isn't it nice?
01:00:16 The owners live on the first floor,
01:00:20 - Want to see it?
01:00:23 - Good morning!
01:00:26 You"re welcome.
01:00:29 Mrs. Seewald!
01:00:32 Is it true? Have you rented
01:00:35 Yes, to a Spanish family.
01:00:37 To Spaniards?
01:00:41 And?
01:00:42 Well, really!
01:00:44 Lt"s huge, and full of light.
01:00:46 But how much does it cost?
01:00:48 40 francs a month.
01:00:49 That's not bad.
01:00:53 But that includes breakfast
01:00:56 - That's true.
01:00:58 Pablito, let's pick your room.
01:01:02 This is the kitchen.
01:01:04 You can see it afterwards.
01:01:11 Look.
01:01:13 This stove keeps
01:01:17 And look at this.
01:01:29 Look at the view!
01:01:33 You like it.
01:01:33 Yes, a lot.
01:01:36 Does this guy speak Spanish?
01:01:38 - Not a word, and he's deaf as a post.
01:01:41 We've seen the two bedrooms,
01:01:44 - Yes!
01:01:48 I want him to sleep on his own.
01:01:52 On his own?
01:01:54 Do I get the sitting room?
01:01:56 Listen, I'd like
01:01:59 We've never been able
01:02:02 And until we can save enough
01:02:06 It isn't asking too much, is it?
01:02:10 What do you say?
01:02:15 What can I say?
01:02:17 And if Mari-Garmen
01:02:21 it's crazy to be all here together.
01:02:25 Fine.
01:02:27 Fine.
01:02:41 What are those things?
01:02:49 He says they're the landlord's,
01:02:55 You have to go down
01:02:57 All right, but give me time,
01:03:02 I should have thanked Hanna
01:03:06 Because you didn't want to.
01:03:13 Tonino, a radio!
01:03:15 Inter and Milan are playing today.
01:03:22 Yeah, but we haven't got one.
01:03:30 That's the television
01:03:32 We'd get three channels.
01:03:35 we'd get Switzerland.
01:03:37 - Look, it's lovely.
01:03:43 Hurrah for the bride and groom!
01:03:49 Stand here,
01:04:16 Who's she?
01:04:35 What are you doing here?
01:04:38 Where are your parents?
01:04:40 Are you Italian?
01:04:42 Where are mom and dad?
01:04:52 Don't open your eyes.
01:04:54 I won't.
01:04:56 - Open them.
01:05:01 So you bought it!
01:05:05 Don't you like it?
01:05:07 Yes, I do,
01:05:09 but there are
01:05:11 That's great.
01:05:14 All right, switch it on,
01:05:17 Tonino, switch it on.
01:05:25 - Look at that!
01:05:28 Yes, those little aerials
01:05:30 Like hell, we've hooked it up
01:05:35 The landlord's?
01:05:37 A roof aerial costs 40 francs.
01:05:40 Look, look!
01:05:41 If they complain, Martin...
01:05:44 Well, at least don't sit up late.
01:05:47 School begins tomorrow.
01:05:49 Do you remember
01:05:52 Yes, I heard you,
01:05:54 I'll take him,
01:05:57 Look at that!
01:05:59 - What are you eating?
01:06:06 I turn my back
01:06:17 My wife... factory.
01:06:20 Police: "Children, school".
01:06:24 And my wife: "Martin..."
01:06:27 - Martin is my name.
01:06:30 You"re late again, Adriano.
01:06:32 The police told us.
01:06:35 It"s all sorted out.
01:06:38 Tomorrow, you bring slippers
01:06:42 Tomorrow,
01:06:45 and you leave your boots out here.
01:06:48 But today... he have...
01:06:50 cold.
01:06:51 Don"t worry,
01:06:53 it"s very healthy.
01:06:55 You can go barefoot,
01:07:00 How much pay?
01:07:02 - Pay?
01:07:04 You don"t pay anything.
01:07:06 Dad, don't leave me on my own,
01:07:10 Don't worry,
01:07:11 and behave yourself,
01:07:17 Dad!
01:07:20 Don't leave me on my own!
01:07:22 Pablo, behave yourself.
01:07:25 You'll understand them in no time.
01:07:34 5 YEARS LATER
01:07:36 In this class, I've explained
01:07:40 how babies come into the world.
01:07:42 I hope you"ve understood.
01:07:48 Have you any questions?
01:07:53 Yes, Pablo.
01:07:54 It"s like that in Switzerland
01:07:57 but in Spain
01:08:01 and a stork brings them.
01:08:04 That"s not true!
01:08:07 Is that true?
01:08:11 Yes.
01:08:14 No, that"s a big fib!
01:08:19 All right, that"s enough.
01:08:21 I'll explain about the stork
01:08:25 Come here, Pablo.
01:08:31 They show everything.
01:08:33 And then their husbands
01:08:34 are away for two weeks.
01:08:38 till they're 50,
01:08:41 Do you think
01:08:43 - were here on their own?
01:08:45 Just in case, I don't ask.
01:08:47 - Really!
01:08:49 how's Marcos?
01:08:52 Since he was promoted, we've got
01:08:55 It's Herr this and Frau that.
01:08:58 You're lucky!
01:09:00 He does all the talking.
01:09:03 I just cook.
01:09:05 Mom, the teacher wants
01:09:07 Gan't you say hello?
01:09:14 - What does she want to tell us?
01:09:17 They laughed at me
01:09:20 Babies are born differently here.
01:09:27 What is it?
01:09:29 Go out and play.
01:09:33 It's like we were saying.
01:09:37 - That explains the adults' behavior.
01:09:41 Anyway,
01:09:42 are you coming here
01:09:44 - I have to do the shopping.
01:09:48 That guy insists
01:09:50 I've never stolen anything.
01:09:51 I didn't steal anything.
01:09:53 Yes, he did. I saw perfectly
01:09:58 I'm taking him into that room
01:10:00 They're going to put you
01:10:02 in that room and search you.
01:10:04 If you've got it, get rid of it.
01:10:07 If they find it, you'll get
01:10:10 and you'll never get back.
01:10:12 I'll try to distract him.
01:10:16 Well, then, what"ll we do?
01:10:19 - We"ll go into the room.
01:10:22 How long have you worked here?
01:10:24 Two years.
01:10:26 And I saw clearly
01:10:37 Liver!
01:10:39 From here.
01:10:40 Liver.
01:10:41 Li-ver!
01:10:43 A fillet of liver.
01:10:46 My mother wants a fillet of liver.
01:10:49 Oh, a fillet of liver!
01:10:51 God, he certainly isn't
01:10:54 I asked him forty times.
01:10:56 I've told you forty times
01:10:59 and you don't know.
01:11:01 Of course I know.
01:11:03 But he didn't make any effort.
01:11:06 Where's your father?
01:11:08 What I don't know is
01:11:10 on Ghristmas Eve.
01:11:20 I'm really sorry.
01:11:24 I saw him...
01:11:26 No, no.
01:11:31 Happy Christmas!
01:11:38 Aren't you ashamed?
01:11:40 I've never seen
01:11:48 Dad, mom wants
01:11:54 Gome on, son.
01:12:16 Hey, Martin!
01:12:18 Your hair's gone white.
01:12:21 I've walked from home in -10?.
01:12:24 I don't have a friend to drive me.
01:12:26 Gontacts, Martin.
01:12:27 By the way, we can't come
01:12:30 Don't say that.
01:12:33 Pilar said you'd come.
01:12:34 We can't.
01:12:37 I can't let him down.
01:12:40 Are you all right?
01:12:45 - You're shivering.
01:12:48 Help someone
01:12:53 Leave your personal problems
01:12:56 Touch me again
01:12:59 - You'll do what?
01:13:01 Martin, please!
01:13:09 One thing, Marcos.
01:13:11 When you see me in here
01:13:30 Aren't you drinking your tea?
01:13:32 Are you still thinking about Marcos?
01:13:38 You know what I'd like?
01:13:40 What?
01:13:43 I'd give anything to be
01:13:45 drinking a beer
01:14:02 Martin, come here!
01:14:03 - I thought I'd made it clear.
01:14:09 Go to the office,
01:14:11 What's happened?
01:14:14 Hurry, Martin.
01:14:21 What is it?
01:14:23 His father is dying.
01:14:29 Let me do it.
01:14:31 Don't say anything to Pablo.
01:14:33 Why make him suffer
01:14:36 Take it easy, Martin, please.
01:14:39 I won't make it.
01:14:40 I won't be able
01:14:53 - How are you?
01:14:56 They rang from the airport.
01:14:57 You've got a ticket
01:15:00 - Is there nothing earlier?
01:15:02 Then I'll take the train
01:15:06 You'll gain a day
01:15:08 - Mari-Garmen, I didn't see you.
01:15:13 That's done.
01:15:14 Why don't you try to relax a bit?
01:15:17 - I'll make coffee for everyone.
01:15:24 They gave Tonino the day off
01:15:29 If you don't mind,
01:15:34 How could I mind,
01:15:37 - I'll mess your clothes.
01:17:17 Your grandfather loved you, Pablo.
01:17:20 Would you like
01:17:23 For a vacation?
01:17:25 No, forever.
01:17:29 Forever?
01:17:31 What about my friends?
01:17:35 You'll make new friends there.
01:17:39 But there are no forests or rivers,
01:17:43 Well, don't think about that.
01:17:49 I'll race you to the farm
01:17:54 Last one is a faggot!
01:18:02 All right.
01:18:07 Dad, what's a faggot?
01:18:10 I'll tell you later.
01:18:21 Shit!
01:18:29 Hanna!
01:18:38 Heavens!
01:18:42 I haven"t seen you in ages.
01:18:45 Yes.
01:18:46 How did you know that?
01:18:48 I heard you"d got married.
01:18:52 Yes. It"s true.
01:18:58 - Is that your son?
01:19:01 the little boy who...
01:19:03 Yes.
01:19:03 Pablo, will you go for a walk?
01:19:12 Well?
01:19:14 - How are you doing?
01:19:22 Hanna,
01:19:26 I'm going back to Spain
01:19:29 to Madrid.
01:19:34 In the end, you all go back.
01:19:41 To your homeland.
01:19:55 Hello!
01:19:56 This is Peter.
01:19:58 - Your son?
01:20:00 - Good looking, like his mother.
01:20:03 - Is this his friend?
01:20:08 Hello.
01:20:10 - Hello.
01:20:12 Yes, she"s five years old.
01:20:14 She"s Maria.
01:20:17 But...
01:20:20 Yes.
01:20:22 Maria.
01:20:24 A very Spanish name.
01:20:27 She"s very dark...
01:20:30 It"s an Italian name too.
01:20:40 I'll come back as soon as
01:20:44 You"re a boy.
01:20:47 How can you earn money?
01:20:49 I don"t believe you.
01:20:51 You"ll go away forever.
01:20:52 No immigrant comes back.
01:20:54 But I'm not an immigrant.
01:20:57 My parents are.
01:20:59 I adore Italy, but I don"t want
01:21:02 After a year here,
01:21:04 with my first savings,
01:21:08 I bought a car.
01:21:10 It was a beautiful car,
01:21:12 second hand, but beautiful.
01:21:15 A flame red sports car,
01:21:18 with the rims painted white.
01:21:20 The best thing
01:21:22 was that the roof opened.
01:21:26 I adored that machine.
01:21:27 It was everything for me.
01:21:30 That summer I went to Naples
01:21:33 That night,
01:21:36 The next day, when I went down
01:21:45 They'd destroyed it.
01:21:49 They didn't steal it.
01:21:52 They'd completely destroyed it.
01:21:58 They'd scratched the hood.
01:22:02 They'd pulled out
01:22:05 They'd slashed the tires.
01:22:09 And all for what?
01:22:11 For nothing.
01:22:14 Just to hurt me.
01:22:21 It's an envious, cruel country.
01:22:25 Gountries aren't cruel,
01:22:33 I know what I have to do.
01:22:36 I'm going to marry
01:22:39 I'm going to go to Italy
01:22:43 but I'll put the car in the garage!
01:22:45 That's my Tonino!
01:22:50 What lies are you telling
01:22:53 I was telling her
01:22:55 - we've put on the apartment.
01:22:58 The apartment my sister
01:23:01 The savings from six years of work.
01:23:03 - We both worked.
01:23:07 Until we get it, we'll live with
01:23:10 I didn't know that.
01:23:12 I'm not going back
01:23:15 Don't worry,
01:23:18 - No, we're not in any hurry.
01:23:22 - Gome on, Pilar!
01:23:24 Martin, did you tell Emil
01:23:26 - No.
01:23:28 Emil, my friend Marcos
01:23:33 would like to rent
01:23:36 Yes, it"s still free.
01:23:38 - No problem?
01:23:40 No problem?
01:23:41 - No problem.
01:23:43 - You"re welcome.
01:23:45 - Thank you.
01:23:48 - Ma"am.
01:23:50 See you again!
01:23:54 My dear.
01:23:58 I'll write to you.
01:24:02 Gome on, girls!
01:24:05 Get in the car, we'll be late.
01:24:07 Gome on, hurry.
01:24:08 Gome on, legs in and...
01:24:12 Why's he here?
01:24:14 I said nothing.
01:24:15 It's all we needed.
01:24:17 I heard
01:24:20 Take care.
01:24:26 Pablo, get in the car!
01:24:29 Gome on!
01:24:33 Goodbye!
01:24:34 - Safe trip!
01:24:36 - So long, you lot.
01:24:38 Good bye!
01:25:44 Smile a bit,
01:25:47 Dad,
01:25:48 why have we come
01:25:50 I don't know, son.
01:25:53 It's not ugly.
01:25:54 It's just very hot
01:25:57 Don't say it's ugly
01:26:00 Pablo, love, you've got so big!
01:26:06 I'm going to take out the money,
01:26:09 By the way, love,
01:26:12 thank you for sending me money
01:26:17 Ssh, Martin knows nothing
01:26:20 Where's father?
01:26:22 He's making a mattress
01:26:24 We weren't expecting you
01:26:28 Do you want to see him?
01:26:33 Guillermo!
01:26:34 They're here!
01:26:38 Pablo!
01:26:40 Gome here!
01:26:41 Is that him? What's he doing?
01:26:44 He repairs woollen mattresses.
01:26:50 Gome closer.
01:26:52 Give me a kiss.
01:26:56 Didn't you tell him?
01:26:58 We said he'd had an accident.
01:27:02 I saw him at my mother's house
01:27:05 Guillermo, put on your leg,
01:27:10 Pass me the leg.
01:27:13 What's wrong?
01:27:15 It doesn't hurt anymore.
01:27:20 I'll pass it to you, father.
01:27:21 But, Pablo...
01:27:24 - Kill it! Hit it on the head!
01:27:35 Are you hot?
01:27:38 No.
01:27:42 Want some more lemonade?
01:27:44 It's very good.
01:27:48 I don't want anything.
01:27:52 Mom,
01:27:54 are we never, ever going back?
01:27:57 Don't think
01:28:00 You'll make yourself sick.
01:28:02 It's your first day.
01:28:05 Tomorrow we're going
01:28:06 with your grandma and your aunt
01:28:10 Try to go to sleep.
01:28:14 Get some rest.
01:28:22 Gome here.
01:28:23 Another kiss,
01:28:24 for all the ones
01:28:29 That's enough.
01:28:32 Leave the boy alone.
01:28:37 Goodbye.
01:28:38 I'll see you out.
01:29:00 Do all the windows look out here?
01:29:02 Yes, all of them.
01:29:05 Don't act surprised,
01:29:08 But the apartment is big
01:29:12 No, it's fine, but your sister
01:29:16 But she lives in a basement...
01:29:18 Don't knock my sister,
01:29:24 So in six years we've gone up
01:29:36 That's it.
01:29:40 From what I hear,
01:29:43 We arrived from Switzerland
01:29:45 How long were you away?
01:29:47 Six years.
01:29:48 - I don't know how you stood it.
01:29:51 They're all racists up there,
01:29:54 Are they?
01:29:56 Don't say they're not.
01:29:58 Everyone knows
01:30:01 Are you saying
01:30:04 Everyone wants to come here.
01:30:06 This is better than anywhere,
01:30:09 I prefer Switzerland.
01:30:11 - You asked the right person.
01:30:14 Let it dry, and in half an hour
01:30:17 It won't move.
01:30:20 We're off,
01:30:24 The bottle!
01:30:26 Thanks.
01:30:30 - Dad...
01:30:31 Did they treat us badly
01:30:33 No, not at all.
01:30:36 Why did those men say it?
01:30:39 Because Spaniards are
01:30:43 Sure, welcoming
01:30:45 and Swedish girls with big chests.
01:30:50 "Don"t hurry back.
01:30:52 Things are better,
01:30:55 I'm finding it hard to get work.
01:30:57 After working for six years
01:31:00 they wanted me to take a test
01:31:03 I refused.
01:31:06 Apparently in this country
01:31:09 so I had to swallow my pride
01:31:13 It lasts a week
01:31:16 Even you would have trouble
01:31:18 and you were second in your year
01:31:23 I'll tell you if I get it
01:31:25 I don't want to end up
01:31:28 Maybe you remember him.
01:31:30 Kiss Mari-Garmen
01:31:33 and say hello to our colleagues,
01:31:37 We are well and send our love,
01:31:40 Martin Vargas and family."
01:31:42 What a disappointment.
01:31:45 and in Spain we miss Switzerland.
01:31:48 We're from nowhere now.
01:31:50 I'm not risking it.
01:31:52 without something definite.
01:31:54 How can he go back
01:32:10 Boys, is Anselmo here?
01:32:13 No, he's in the bar.
01:32:15 As usual.
01:32:29 You're Martin.
01:32:31 And you're Saturnino, my maestro.
01:32:34 Are you still working?
01:32:36 What else can I do?
01:32:38 I wasn't as lucky as you.
01:32:40 Are you still in Pegaso?
01:32:43 No, they fired me in 1960
01:32:47 I went to Switzerland.
01:32:49 Yes, the crisis.
01:32:50 In this goddamn country
01:32:55 Why are you here?
01:32:58 Yes, I am.
01:33:00 But I'd have come sooner to see you
01:33:04 Don't change the subject.
01:33:07 Don't come back here, Martin.
01:33:10 It's not for you anymore.
01:33:11 There are just a couple of old timers
01:33:15 You don't come back
01:33:18 It can't be that bad,
01:33:21 He lent me money.
01:33:24 I've been repaying the favour
01:33:30 Don't bow your head
01:33:33 You'd give him the greatest
01:33:38 - I'll go and see Anselmo.
01:33:44 He's seen you.
01:33:45 It's Mr. Martin,
01:33:50 the one who said
01:33:53 in this lousy workshop.
01:33:55 - How are you, Anselmo?
01:33:59 I bet I know why you're here.
01:34:03 You're desperate for me
01:34:08 - Well, I...
01:34:11 He's come,
01:34:13 He's working in Switzerland.
01:34:16 Is that true?
01:34:18 He's a gentleman,
01:34:20 something you've never been,
01:34:22 and a gentleman never lies.
01:34:25 I came to say goodbye
01:34:27 and thank him
01:34:30 I'm going back to Switzerland
01:34:33 earning thirteen times
01:34:35 When I'm there, I'll write to you.
01:34:50 What are you all looking at?
01:34:53 Or do you want
01:34:58 Martin? Is that you?
01:35:08 What happened?
01:35:10 I couldn't ask Anselmo for a job.
01:35:13 This is shit, Pilar.
01:35:15 Let's go back, dad.
01:35:17 I don't want to go to that school.
01:35:19 Work hard,
01:35:22 and yours is the most expensive.
01:35:24 If you pay the priests so much
01:35:28 They hit you?
01:35:29 Not just me.
01:35:31 to make us stay in line.
01:35:34 - But they hit me more.
01:35:37 I'm left handed
01:35:45 Very well.
01:35:48 Family meeting. Sit down.
01:35:51 Sit down!
01:35:56 Given all this,
01:35:59 what do we do?
01:36:02 I think we should go back
01:36:06 I could easily get my old job.
01:36:08 Yes, let's do that.
01:36:10 School has just started in Uzwil
01:36:12 and as it's free, even if I'm late,
01:36:17 Well, well.
01:36:20 So the two men in my house
01:36:26 I encouraged you to go
01:36:29 We went for money and we got it.
01:36:31 And it was tough, wasn't it?
01:36:33 Or don't you remember?
01:36:38 We won't be driven
01:36:41 or Pegaso, or the priests,
01:36:43 or by this lousy apartment
01:36:47 You'll get into Pegaso because
01:36:50 and if a boy hits you, Pablo,
01:36:53 I've seen you do it before.
01:36:55 And if it's a priest,
01:36:57 you tell me.
01:36:58 I'll sort him out.
01:37:09 And another thing.
01:37:12 Having a grandfather who's lame
01:37:16 is no cause for shame.
01:37:29 I'm going to do my homework
01:37:32 and do a crib.
01:37:36 Dad, do you know what a crib is?
01:37:38 Yes, I know what a crib is.
01:37:40 Just study and forget about cribs.
01:37:43 I didn't know.
01:37:52 He's catching on.
01:37:55 I'm going to have a beer
01:37:57 They want me to install
01:38:01 Shall we walk down Alcala Street?
01:38:06 It's crowded,
01:38:10 Shall we have a beer?
01:38:17 And watch people walk by?
01:38:20 Yes.
01:38:30 And supper?
01:38:32 To hell with supper.
01:38:34 We'll get something.
01:38:36 Forget about the cribs!
01:38:38 What's one slap more or less?
01:38:41 You wait here.
01:39:16 Dedicated to them, to all of them.
