Do what we told you to do.
3247591.
Yes, he explained it well.
When did he say I should call back?
I have to leave tomorrow.
What a pain in the ass.
They always tell me at the last minute.
Sorry, I didn't understand.
We have to leave early.
Ah, this number?
Silvia, are you listening to me?
In a week.
Can we think about the girl?
Thank you.
That's it.
Sorry, what did you say?
I don't think you're old enough to find a job.
In fact, I don't believe it anymore.
Then you're wasting your time.
Maybe I'm busy.
I was disassembling some old factory's boxes.
There's a lot of old parts to be found.
They're old machines, but they have a certain value.
I'm going to prepare the baby's things.
I'll bring it to my mother.
Is it possible not to have this smell every time you cook?
I can't make you understand that the doors have to be closed.
Mom, why do you leave together if dad says you're mean?
Because I know he doesn't think so.
What do you do when you go on a trip?
Dad works.
And you?
Nothing, he waits for me to finish.
And you don't have us?
Look, mom!
Here they are.
I'll get you another two kilos.
And then you can have half a day.
I never eat anything for lunch.
A coffee, please.
All right.
Yesterday a client at Luigi's restaurant
wrote an appointment on the receipt and paid well.
That good one that's been in the kitchen.
I'm almost out of it.
A lemon tea for me, please.
A coffee, please.
What's going on?
It's become his love.
Excuse me, can I have a glass of milk, please?
Here you are.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
No, no, thank you.
I'm sorry.
See you later.
Listen, excuse me.
A cappuccino with a little bit of everything.
Thank you.
Silvia, hurry up!
Coming!
It's me.
I understand.
What's up?
Nothing, I just wanted to tell you that I'm ready.
Wait for me over there, please.
We should be there.
Now there's the shortcut to the highway.
But didn't the sign pass?
What sign, sorry?
What do you mean, what sign?
Of course you're sleeping.
One thing you should remember.
Sorry, I'll look now.
Thank you.
Sorry, I'll look now.
Thank you.
Can you do this job on the other side?
Yes, sorry.
This hotel is worse.
Tomorrow is a big day.
It's your birthday.
Have you thought about the guests?
You know I don't like to celebrate, but I'll do it.
Why don't you like it?
It's so nice to get old together.
It's natural.
I like to see the time that passes by you.
The signs of time, yours and mine.
You need to have the courage to get old.
Why don't you want to celebrate?
How was I when we met?
I don't remember.
How was I?
How were you?
You were...
We were young.
Yes.
I still like you.
What do you say?
Pass me that piece.
If you want to pay, you have to sign.
Sure.
Perfect.
I'll charge you.
Alberto!
What do I do?
Stay in the car!
Do I have to tell you everything?
Okay.
Of course, sir.
Oh my God!
Where were you? You disappeared!
I went for a walk.
Yes, yes, let's go.
Where are we going? Don't you know I have another appointment?
Mom, why are you taking me to school so early?
Honey, it's your mom's job.
Good morning, ma'am.
Two coffees, please.
Excuse me, may I?
Please.
Goodbye, thank you.
What would you like?
No, no, look, a fruit juice is worth it.
A coffee, please, ma'am.
Good morning.
You're not angry with me, are you?
I just thought of you.
Why?
Because I thought of you too.
It's telepathy.
Or maybe it was my hand.
My hand is precious, you know?
What do you mean?
What do I mean?
It's a hand that makes dollars,
stars, marks, yen, virtual.
I don't understand.
Listen, I work here, in the bank, at the stock exchange.
If you have five minutes, we can do two steps together.
This is how I explain how my job works.
In the stock exchange, we are subject to various
ups and downs, with everything crumbling
and everything seems to be in perfect harmony.
Instead of being in harmony,
we need a particular mentality.
We don't even need to know everything.
The world is full of political and social factors
of every country,
and everything is connected on a planetary level.
I don't understand a thing you're saying.
I told you, we need a particular mentality.
And you have it?
Well...
Here.
If you could imagine
venturing into this crazy cage,
you never know.
I want to make love to her.
Of course, he could get paralyzed.
But I'm not just saying he.
It's you all I want.
See you later.
Mum, tomorrow at school you'll buy me a pumpkin.
What do you need it for?
For the English test.
Ah, for Halloween. Yes, I'll buy it for you.
Come here.
Mum, what is a pumpkin?
A pumpkin is a big round carrot that sometimes turns into a carriage.
It's not true, mum.
Of course it's true.
A fairy with a magic wand comes and turns it into a crystal carriage.
Do you believe it?
Yes, I do. You?
No.
Ah, no, eh?
What's up?
Nothing, can I stay here a bit?
You wanted to tell me something?
No, nothing.
Did something happen?
No, nothing. Everything's fine.
Come on, love, finish your milk. It's late.
Mom, won't you go with me?
No, love, I'll take you to Nelly's today.
Nelly, come on!
Here you go.
Mom, you didn't buy me an apple.
I forgot, love. I'll bring it after school.
Give me your hat.
Here you go.
Give me two.
One and two. Bye. Have a good school day.
You were looking for this?
Yes, thanks. I had a number for Patrizia and I thought I'd lost it.
I'm really messy. Thanks.
Mr. Aloisi, please.
It's me.
I'm a married woman.
Sitting down is not a sin.
Do you want something to drink?
Yes, thank you.
I hoped you'd call me at any moment.
What I'm doing is madness.
Madness? We're not doing anything wrong.
I'm doing what I'm supposed to.
Silvia, I like your name very much.
I don't want to leave anymore.
Then stay.
There's room.
Would you take me with you?
If you do the right thing.
What did I tell you his name was?
Klesidra.
No, Klesidra.
This is the first clock that men built.
They took this ball of glass, put the sand in it,
and then slowly, slowly, slowly, you see the sand going down?
This means that time is passing.
At a certain point, the sand ends here.
And then an hour or two has passed.
Excuse me, Mom, when does time stop?
No, dear.
When it stops, it turns and starts going down again.
It goes down and another hour passes.
Did you see how Mom talks about important things?
Bye, Dad.
Bye, Stelvio.
Hi, you're back.
Bye, bye.
I'm going to make something to eat.
I'll make you something special.
We'll see what you buy.
This is a party, a celebration.
No, I just want to make a little lunch.
I'll make you something.
I want to make a little lunch.
Yes?
What were you doing?
Nothing, I'm here, I'm resting.
On our couch?
No, no, I'm on the bed.
And you're alone?
No.
Come on, I'm kidding.
You know that since we met I don't want to see anyone anymore?
Liar, you're a big liar.
And what are you doing?
I'm at home, I'm waiting for you to come.
I'm at home, I'm waiting for my husband to come back.
If he comes back, I'll have to call him.
I was thinking about you too, you know?
Yes, and what were you thinking about?
I still smell you on my hand.
Do you like my smell?
Do you feel it?
Say it again.
It drives you crazy, doesn't it?
Close your eyes now.
Are they closed?
Yes, they are.
And what would you do to me now?
Imagine that I'm next to you.
Come here to me.
I'm here, naked on the bed, waiting for you.
Come here, let's make love all night.
I have a crazy thought.
What is it?
My God, I'd like to...
What would you like?
Imagine that...
It's so cold!
Mamma mia!
Sorry, I'm late.
I had some problems with Patrizia.
I'll tell you later.
Bye, Mamma.
Bye, darling.
Look, look, look, look, look.
What did I bring you?
A little one.
A nice plate.
Yes, thank you.
Good boy!
Did you make all this?
What's going on today?
You know I'm always with you when you're not.
It's so cold!
Yes, it's cold.
Let me see if it's warmer here.
Yes, it is.
I want to feel the sand under my feet.
Can I take my boots off?
Take them off? Why do you ask?
Stay like this, stay, stay...
Stay...
What are you thinking?
Why are you so thoughtful?
What's in your head?
What's in it?
What do you do when you're not with me?
I'm with my husband.
And I survive.
And I survive waiting for you.
I don't survive, I don't live without you anymore.
I'm not enough anymore.
We only see each other when he's not there, when you've left.
If it's only for two hours, I don't miss other women.
We depend on him, you understand?
I don't want you to talk about him.
Silvia!
I've been looking for you for days.
Where have you been?
It's so cold!
Silvia, you're barefoot!
Yes, I'm barefoot, but I'm so happy.
Where did you leave your shoes?
I went to the sand.
What's taking you so long?
There's something different.
You noticed too?
Give me those.
How could I not notice?
It's so obvious.
I had no idea it happened.
I didn't have time to talk to you.
It all happened so suddenly.
He didn't talk to you. We never heard from each other again.
A stranger.
You don't know him? You met him by chance?
Do you remember how we were when we were kids?
Sixteen. In love and cooked.
The bells.
I'm putting on my shoes without putting my socks on.
I've filled your bed with sand.
Oh, God, Patrizia.
What happened?
He left.
I had a story with another woman a year ago.
They all knew, but not me.
He left me.
He doesn't love me anymore.
Maybe it's something that happens.
Maybe he lost his mind for someone, and then it happens.
You know what I don't understand?
It's the way, isn't it?
It's the way one leaves like that, from one day to the next.
I mean, it's like...
I...
It's like I'm being killed inside, you know?
They get rid of you at 16. It's not possible.
I can't get used to it.
Only men are capable of being so cruel. We're not.
We're not.
My God, how long has it been since you heard from him?
A month. He left and it's over.
He packed his bag and left. That's it.
He took the scale with him.
Come here.
What do we always say?
You have to survive.
What is this sand?
Sorry, Mom, I broke my clit.
Don't worry, honey.
I'll pick it up. Go on.
It's nothing. You'll get hurt.
And now we'll take this baby to the nanny.
To the nanny.
It's time to sleep, the little star of Papa.
Let's take a nap.
Papa, but the prayer?
Oh, the prayer.
Holy Mary, Mother of God.
What do you mean, Mother?
Mother, Mother.
Let's all put our feet on the baby's.
You know it so well.
One gives a little kiss,
another one, another one.
What was Patricia's problem the other day?
Nothing, her husband.
It's cold.
He left with someone.
With whom?
Well, with a...
...wife, she had two children.
Ouch!
What a complication!
And you didn't notice?
Well, I think so.
But I thought she'd be over him.
Oh my God, how much effort, the divorce, the lawyers.
Maybe they loved each other.
At a certain age, feeling doesn't matter anymore.
It's not that clear, is it?
Oh, yes.
I forgot that you women are always so...
...unhappy, right? Complicated.
It would never happen between us.
Why?
Because you're a wise woman.
You've always said I'm lazy.
It's the same thing.
But above all, do anything to avoid it.
Excuse me, I'll watch something on the news and then I'll hang up.
Ah, there you are.
What are you doing here?
What do you mean? I'm buying.
I have to tell you something. It's important.
I don't want you to follow me.
I need to see you.
Please.
Are you going?
Just for a moment.
Don't worry, I'm a customer.
Let me through, please.
Of course, ma'am.
Don't ever make me do this again.
Promise.
You want to look me in the eye?
Yes.
Let's not make ridiculous scenes.
Sorry if I want to be with you a bit.
Falling in love is this too, isn't it?
Are you crazy?
Are you afraid?
Yes, I'm fine as I am.
You said your husband is not home.
Give me these bags, I'll go with you.
Come on, let's go.
Good morning.
Shh!
It's my husband.
Get in, get in.
Good morning.
Oh, hi!
You're still up?
Yeah, I'm fine.
You didn't go out?
Yeah, I went out to get something.
I'm sorry, I have to go.
Okay, bye.
I wanted to tell you...
No, no, it's not important.
I'll tell you later.
Do you realize you're risking a miscarriage?
We're here, Nancy.
How dare you?
She didn't notice anything. Don't worry.
Go away.
She wants you to be sick.
Stay calm.
Go away.
Yes, I'm going away right now.
Please, I'm going to cry.
I just wanted to see where you live, where you live.
You've hurt yourself too.
The kitchen is over here.
No, I don't know.
What do you mean you don't know?
Please.
This is the table where you eat, I bet.
I don't know.
You don't know.
Come on, let's cook together.
You're crazy.
Okay, I'm going.
Where are you going?
Can I know where you're going?
Please.
What do you think of this kitchen?
No, this is definitely more interesting than the kitchen.
Where do you sleep? Right or left?
I don't know.
You want to go? I don't want you in here.
Come on.
There's nothing of yours in here.
All ties, socks. What's in here?
Leave it. Come on.
Look, look.
There's finally something of yours.
Leave this.
Give me this stuff.
Don't be crazy.
I'll keep it.
Leave it.
This house is big.
I don't like it.
You don't have to like it.
Come on.
What's in here?
The girl's room.
Sorry.
You can go now.
Come on.
Don't make it harder.
Why? We're not doing anything wrong.
What do you mean?
You're here now. It's not wrong.
Yes, but not at my house.
We love each other.
I've never spoken of love with you.
No?
Never.
Then what is this beating heart when we make love?
Anyway, I came for these.
I'll be waiting for you.
You have the keys now.
Translated by Elia Pozzani
Look, wait for me in my office on the right. I'll be right there.
You didn't look for me.
You really knew?
I came to tell you I'm leaving for a few days.
With your husband?
I wanted to tell you...
Why are you going?
I have to.
What do you feel for him?
Nothing.
Mrs. Luisi, the delegation is here.
I hate him.
Wait a minute!
I hate him.
You're leaving again?
Tomorrow, by train to Milan at 10.35.
Will you come to the station?
Just for a moment, but I will.
You will?
Yes.
Mrs. Luisi, the delegation is here.
I hate him.
Always.
Yes, I'm coming.
Just a moment.
Okay.
I'm coming.
See you tomorrow, okay?
See you tomorrow.
No, Silvia, no. I'm going alone.
I just got a call from the office.
There will be meetings of the general management
that will last all night.
Imagine, I'll leave you in Milan alone for four days.
Look, I'm ready.
I'm really glad to come.
Even if you're late, it doesn't matter.
Then come.
You know, maybe you're right.
I could confirm the appointment with the doctor.
Oh, I had forgotten because I was thinking of leaving.
Sure, but you don't insist much.
What are you going to do in these four days?
Good morning.
Good morning. Could you talk to Mrs. Luisi, please?
What do you mean she's not here?
Are you sure?
Okay, thank you.
Go to the station.
Is that you?
I thought it was you, Alberto.
I just left home. Where are you?
Oh, you're getting on the train?
The one to Milan?
Sure, I will tell him, yeah, definitely.
Yeah, leave him a message, yeah.
He can call you back.
Otherwise, do you want me to tell him?
Yeah, do you want to call back?
Definitely, yeah.
Yeah, he already knows about it.
Don't worry, yeah, everything is going to be okay.
Bye now.
Signora, un isi, per favore.
Sì.
Posto?
Mi spiace, non c'è.
Ma è sicura?
Se non rispondi, evidentemente non c'è.
Va bene.
Signora, l'uscita è da questa parte.
Signora!
Signora, l'uscita è da questa parte.
Ma dove va?
Ha capito o no che l'uscita è dall'altra parte?
So, is it over?
Mom, what's the name of this sheet?
I don't know, look for it.
There are pages with the sheets.
Go.
Hello?
So?
You've been looking for... Here it is. This is the page.
Hello?
Yes?
No, my husband's not here.
Did you call him a while ago?
Okay, yes. Thank you.
Mom, help me.
Yes. Yes, you're right.
Now, Mom will sit here with you and we'll look for this nice page.
Which one do you think it is?
This one.
Yes.
Telecom Italia Mobile.
Information is free.
It's not available at the moment.
35.2250, short message, there are many of you. Bye, thank you.
Let's go!
Here I am! You're here!
Hi!
How are you?
Sorry, I called you suddenly, but I had to...
Honey, don't kiss your grandma!
So?
The woman had a scarlet fever.
Oh, that's why!
I thought it was a good idea to leave her there.
Of course, of course!
Don't turn on the TV too much, ok?
Yes, yes, don't worry.
Mom, when is he coming to pick me up?
Honey, tomorrow dad is coming back, too.
Mom is coming too.
Let's go.
Are you staying?
No, I have to go.
I have to eat something.
You don't want to, mom?
What's wrong?
Nothing, mom!
Stop looking at me like that!
Bye, little one.
Bye.
Bye, mom!
Bye!
Grandma, did you see that mom left?
Yes.
Can I watch the TV?
Right away!
I'm calling from the 352250, short messages, you're a lot, bye, thanks.
Yes, yes, it's dad. I called the landlord to fix the bathroom.
It's coming on Tuesday afternoon.
Let him find you at home and call mom.
Hi, it's me, Indira.
I have a message for you. You're a piece of shit.
What are you doing here?
You didn't leave?
Where were you?
I thought you were in Milan.
I'm sorry, you weren't in Milan.
Where were you?
When did you get back?
It was four days. They were supposed to be our days.
I'm sorry, I don't understand.
Where were you?
Calm down.
Who were you with?
Listen...
What's wrong?
Leave me alone.
You're not well. What's wrong?
I'm not ill.
So?
I had to go out for a walk. You weren't there. I thought you were in Milan.
I didn't go to Milan.
I didn't go there!
Leave me alone! Don't touch me!
I didn't go to Milan.
She's not a lady.
She's a whore who slept with a stranger!
Who?
I'm sorry.
Can you show me?
I'm sorry.
It's nothing.
I'm fine.
What have I done?
I'm sorry.
Wait, I'll clean you. You're all dirty.
Here.
Does it hurt?
No, not anymore.
Here.
It's a superficial cut.
Of course, when you get angry...
I didn't know you were like this.
You're terrible.
Here.
I didn't think you were jealous.
But you can't kill.
I love you.
What? I didn't hear you.
I love you.
How long did it take us to say that?
I'm lost.
What is it?
I want a long night.
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna wind up
Being parted, brokenhearted
So, if you really love me
Say yes
But if you don't, dear
Confess
And please don't tell me
Kill my husband.
You're kidding!
Yes.
Kill my husband.
I'm a normal person.
Normal people don't go around killing.
I'm not a criminal.
He killed my husband.
There must be another way, right?
There are lawyers.
Divorce.
That's not enough.
Now I have to go to the office.
I'm late.
Sorry, I forgot my keys.
Thank you very much.
Don't look at me.
Because I don't want you to look at me.
You're not even home at night.
That's worrying.
I don't know when to call you.
You call me.
Hi, darling, it's me.
No, I'm not going home.
There's been a change of plans.
But how can I come back to tell you?
With all the traffic?
Yes, of course.
I'm only out for a day.
How can I sleep?
What should I make for lunch?
My husband said he's not coming back. You can go.
Thank you.
Bye.
I don't know if I'll be able to.
We should see each other for a while.
Just for a while.
Nobody knows we know each other.
Really?
Nobody has ever seen us together?
And the girl?
I've thought about everything.
I'll send her away.
To the mountains, skiing.
Come.
He'll have to look like he's dead to defend me from a fool.
I'll take him out.
With an excuse. A dinner, a concert.
You'll go through that door. I'll give you the keys.
The knife?
Look, you'll find it here.
I'll hide it behind this sofa.
When we get back, you'll be hidden behind that tent.
Then I'll say I'm not sleepy and I'll go to bed.
I'll lie down here and wait.
We'll wait for him to fall asleep.
When we're sure he's asleep,
you'll have to rape me, you understand?
Capito, can you turn on the camera?
I'm so anxious.
I'm scared.
I'll tell you, Capito.
Hello?
Oh, it's you.
Yes, yes, don't worry.
Okay, thanks.
It was him.
He told me not to open the door to anyone.
When I'm home alone.
Come on, let me see how you're not hurting.
No, I'm not.
You have to cut me.
Yes.
Not like that.
You have to hurt me.
Come on, take me.
Why?
Hit me, come on.
Not here.
Make me scratch.
So, are you able or not?
Not like that.
No.
Pull out the balls, come on.
Enough, enough.
So, you're a little boy?
Yes.
Come on, hit me.
You're a little boy.
Let me go.
You're a little boy.
Let me go.
Stop.
No.
I'm not going to let you go.
Let me go.
Alberto...
would you like to go to the concert on Saturday?
Yes.
Yes, yes.
All right.
Daddy will pick you up as soon as he gets back.
Renata, I want to tell you something.
I'll tell you later.
Guys, do you want to drink something?
Yes, perfect.
Silvia, let's go?
I really thought I was going home.
Come on Silvia, let's talk a little.
It's been a long time since we've seen each other.
Wait, let me hear what your father says.
Are you okay to stay a little longer with me?
No, I'm not okay, really.
Are you sure?
Come on, I'm not okay, I don't insist.
I'm sorry, I don't know.
Yes, come on.
We're here, right?
Yes, let's go.
Let's go.
Yes, I liked it.
It's a shame I was a bit tired.
We should go more often.
Yes, of course.
Shall we go to bed now?
Shall we?
Would you mind if I stayed a bit longer to read?
No.
Good night, love.
Good night.
Get undressed.
What's wrong with you?
We need violence.
Get undressed.
Come on.
We need a stupor.
The police must believe in a stupor.
Do you understand?
Come on.
We need violence.
We need a stupor.
Do you understand?
I can't do it.
You can do it.
A little more.
You have to put the knife in.
I can't do it.
A little more.
That's it.
Let's leave her.
Think about our life.
Think about the life I have.
Let's go.
What do you say?
No.
Go now, it's time.
As soon as you get in the room, I'll follow you.
As soon as you run away, I'll start screaming,
slowly, but then very loudly, and you run away.
Yes.
Yes, yes, I'll go.
But first I'll have a glass of water.
They didn't die.
I was afraid.
What were you doing?
Have you thought about the baby?
What do we do now?
Nothing.
It's me.
Yes, a team. Take me there.
It's urgent.
You knew everything.
How did you do it?
We're under control.
At all times.
Do you understand what I need?
Yes. Of course.
No.
No, no, for the D'Addare version.
We'll agree when you're here.
Okay?
Over there.
There?
Yes, in the corridor.
So, what do we say?
Let's say you broke into my house.
Let's say I killed you because you raped my wife.
I killed you for love, jealousy, passion.
You decide.
Who are you?
We're here to help you.
We're from the secret services.
Your husband is one of them.
No relative can be involved.
He's part of the rules.
You understand, ma'am.
Your husband's official job is just a cover.
Now listen to me, ma'am.
He's going on a trip now.
Just for a short while.
He'll see the necessary amount of time.
You don't have to do anything now.
Except for your life forever.
Forever.
All right. See you downstairs.
Do what we told you.
