They're coming out!
My beautiful girl!
You look gorgeous.
A little princess.
How well you read!
The queen of the party!
- Grandma!
- I'll stain you.
Oh, my girl, my God! My God!
I'm so excited!
We've eaten too much. I don't think I'll even have dinner.
It wasn't too heavy, it was rather light.
A little bird told me you liked the foie gras toasts.
That was at the beginning. - Okay, okay...
Rather light... Maybe the first two servings, yes.
but the third... Dad!
Can I have an ice cream?
Of course, it's your communion. Whatever you want.
Hello.
I want a strawberry ice cream.
Little one, why are you dressed like that?
Mom, because she's a princess.
You are my princess.
Little one, you look like a snowflake.
I'm talking to you. Can't you hear me?
Do you want to buy something?
You don't answer. Say something.
You don't answer. Say something.
Do you want to buy something?
Let's see, my girl. Which ice cream did you choose?
What is that Chinese woman saying?
Xiang!
Xiang!
Are you dressed already?
Xiang, love.
Come on.
Xiang, I know you're nervous.
But you're going to love this school. I promise.
I have a fever.
You don't have a fever. You're scared.
Your uniform is so cool. Look!
I want a normal name.
Xiang is very difficult.
Xiang isn't difficult. It's beautiful. It's your name, my love.
We met you with that name.
It's beautiful.
Come on, really, please.
We have to go to work.
Come on.
Julian!
- What?
- Can you come?
Look.
The one with the motorcycle is El Escape.
How ugly!
He even has a dog collar.
What do you know about boys?
El Escape is the coolest, you have no idea.
Look at the little Chinese girl.
Little Chinese girl.
Are you coming to the park drinking? What do you say?
Fucking Moor, don't call me that. Whoa!
- Hey, banana.
- Don't mess with my Moor, eh.
Poor thing, man.
- Ouch!
- Stop touching.
He fell from the Melilla fence and now he's dumb.
- Come on, fuck off.
- Asshole.
Don't give me the finger, come here.
Let's go, girls.
What he said.
My God, the Chinese girl. I'm gonna mess with her today.
- I'll get her...
- You've got her in the bag.
You can really feel the hormones.
Do you know what my brother says to me?
What?
That I'm clumsy, and he doesn't even know what that means.
He doesn't know what it means? Hi, girls.
- Hi.
- You look so sleepy!
- Come on, girls!
- Don't be late for class.
How are you?
- Girls...
- How are you?
Do you know what these morons posted on Insta?
Haven't you seen it?
That son of a bitch kicked me from his close friends.
No shit.
Why did they call your sister Claudia "banana"?
Because she's yellow on the outside and white inside.
So you're a banana too?
I don't know. I hadn't thought about it.
While
he was looking for
treasures
from boats.
The summer was ending.
The summer was ending.
Susana, "summer" is with two M's.
The summer...
and Victor...
Comma. He remembered
his vacation days
in Benidorm.
His vacation days in Benidorm.
- May I come in?
- Come in.
Come in.
Hello, everybody.
Hello, Mrs. Angelines.
Beln, we have a new student here.
Xiang. Did I pronounce it right?
Yes.
She'll make new friends soon. Right, little one?
- Okay, see you later.
- See you later.
Goodbye, Mrs. Angelines!
Class.
Say hi to Xiang, your new classmate.
Hello, Xiang!
Hello.
Let's find you a seat.
Susana, darling, grab your things and move to the back.
But I want to be with Lucia.
I know, honey,
but it's best if Xiang sits here in...
in the first row.
I don't want to sit there.
OK, so...
Sit there in the back.
Now take out your notebook.
- Hi.
Let's continue with the dictation.
Let's continue.
"His days..."
Good evening.
- Hi, sweetie. How are you, Shui?
- Hello.
Hello.
It's late. I'm tired.
Listen.
- Can you help me find some dinner?
- Okay.
Remember the milk, you didn't have any for breakfast yesterday.
- How much is it, friend?
- Three.
That's too expensive. Give us a discount.
No.
- You know what we did?
- What?
We sewed an ear.
Whoa!
Come.
It's eleven p.m., shouldn't you be sleeping?
Let's see.
Hmm...
Pizza?
Again?
Right. Rice with calamari?
This will do.
Check the expiration date.
Let me see.
- Hmm.
- Look closely.
It's okay.
- Do you want a bracelet?
- Of course.
Four sixty.
We have these ones.
These ones, these ones...
We also have these ones that are like...
- That's my favorite!
- The colorful one?
- One euro.
- Here.
Thanks.
You "eat" badly. Eat more vegetables.
Oh, Shui, please. You sound like my mom.
So your mom is Chinese too?
What?
What do you think?
That she is.
Good morning, Huichu.
Waking up Susana.
Stop, what's going on?
Nothing, I wanted to wake you up from your little dream.
I wasn't dreaming. I was imagining.
What?
What I'd give to have a Chinese store. It'd be so cool.
Having so many toys...
Um... dinosaurs, which I love.
And...
having sweets, chips...
I'd go to that Chinese store.
But don't call it like that.
Call it a shop or dollar store.
We call it that. What can I say?
What's that smell?
- Musta, a joint and you've got her.
- Right.
For once that I come to school, let's do something cool.
Give it to her, Musta. Give it.
Take it, take it! Hey, hey!
Give it to me, Musta! Take it, take it!
Take it!
Hey, hey, hey!
Calm down, bro!
Oh, my Moor. How well my Moor dances.
Move.
I asked my mom
if I could sleep at your house and she said yes.
Why don't you ask yours?
You know how my mom is.
If you don't ask, you don't know if she'll say yes or no.
When I go to your house, we could... um...
have sushi for dinner,
spring rolls and fried rice.
And on top of that you have a Chinese store...
But you know how it stinks?
No matter how much my mom cleans it,
it always stinks horribly.
I mean it.
Not even with the world's best soap!
But you have lots of sweets and...
and toys, and it's so cool.
You even have those machines where you can grab a plushie.
You even have that!
What is she reading?
Has your mom counted the sweets?
No. She hasn't counted them.
Then we could eat a ton of sweets!
I'm telling you, if you eat too many sweets, you'll get a tummy ache.
I'm telling you from experience.
Do you know the new girl's parents are Spanish?
If the girl
is Chinese
and the parents are Spanish, that can't be.
Honey.
Sorry, I get more nervous if you do that.
See you next week.
Remember to bring me the drawing, okay?
Don't forget.
- Good.
- How was it, love?
Okay. Do you want a snack?
Come on, I'll race you.
Sorry, we wanted to ask you how she's doing.
Very well. I think we made the right choice with the change.
She seems happier at this school.
I told her it's a public school with integration programs...
Well, you've seen it. Students from everywhere.
She won't have the same problems.
Has she talked about any classmate, any friend?
She just started, and we've been together for two months.
Let's give her some time. How long?
We have to be patient.
I am very patient, but it's been two months and still...
Hasn't she talked about any classmate, any friend?
Sol.
And what about when she gets angry and says I'm not her mother?
By the way.
we haven't received the consent sheet signed by both of you.
We only have one signature, and it's very important.
Mom.
There are only three months left for my birthday.
Ten years old. You're almost a woman.
Can I invite my friends to celebrate my birthday?
Sure, invite them home.
I'll cook lots of delicious food.
Grilled pork.
fried rice pie, seafood...
cake,
and I'll make you birthday noodles.
Birthday noodles?
My friends celebrate at the amusement park or Burger King.
Do you think we're rich?
What are you thinking! No way.
But my friends won't like
Weird things?
Spaniards don't even have money to eat, and you complain about our food.
Often Spaniards just keep up appearances.
- How much is it?
- One fifty.
The shop barely has any customers.
- Want a bag?
- No, thanks.
Your mom can't buy anything for herself
because we have to pay the rent.
Do your homework!
When you're done, tell your sister to come down and help us.
That's it. Do your homework!
Mom.
Have you had lunch?
Yes.
We have too.
And the girls? All good?
All good.
What about Rou? Is she at the shop?
Rou pays us no attention.
She's thinking all day about going out and having fun.
Anything but helping us in the shop.
On top of that, she wants me to call her Claudia.
I don't even know how to pronounce it.
I raised her until she was six.
As a little girl she was good and obedient.
You always say the same thing.
Why has she changed with you in Spain?
Maybe it's your fault.
Sure, it's my fault. Why do you always say that to me?
You spoiled her and now you blame me.
Wang's son seems like a good kid, and he's from our town.
Why don't they meet and get to know each other?
Don't tell me you want a boyfriend for Rou.
It's too soon. Yes, and we'd all be happy then.
Rou is too young to have a boyfriend.
I just don't want them to forget China,
nor their roots.
Besides, Wang has a good job at a Chinese company.
Tell Rou to call me. I'll tell her.
She respects me and will listen to me.
You're always the same. Right, that's how I am.
Excuse me. Do you have peas?
Aisle on the right. In there.
At the end.
Yun.
Go tell the Spaniard where the peas are.
But I'm doing my homework!
Help me, it'll just take a moment.
Go quickly. Don't be lazy.
Do you guys sell peas at the shop too?
We have everything.
When it rains, Spaniards seek shelter
and we look for umbrellas to sell them.
My daughter is very clever.
The peas are over there.
Oh, thanks.
You're welcome.
No problem, I'll do my best
to improve the company's efficiency.
You'll see the results next month.
Yes, goodbye.
Wang, what is that?
Boss Hao, it's a plant.
Put it away immediately.
Your efficiency is low, and on top you get distracted with silly things.
- Hello, Lucia.
- Hello, Teresa.
Hello, Claudia!
Claudia, dad says you must go down to the shop.
Well, it's not happening.
Just fifty cents.
We remind our customers that only today
you have a 2x1 on perfume items.
Miss Vanesa, please come to register two.
Do you want to take ballet lessons?
At school there are...
as extracurricular activities, there are Tuesdays and Thursdays.
- No...
- You could, you have time.
I was just playing.
Okay, it was just in case you wanted to, Xiang.
Hey. Let's see.
Chinese people through this register, people through the other one, please.
- Xiang.
- Hello.
Hello.
Excuse me. Excuse me. Have you heard what you just said?
- What did I say, ma'am?
- Haven't you heard her?
About... about the Chinese people.
I'm doing this for you. Or do you want to get home late?
Again. I've already scanned it.
For me? Can you give me your name?
It didn't scan. Sure. Vanesa.
But you haven't scanned it. Yes, I have.
You haven't scanned it.
I've scanned it. Next. Again.
- Vanesa, what's your surname?
- Bentez.
Can't you see you can't say that?
Ma'am, it's very late.
Can you call the manager?
Let me finish with this lady.
No. Sorry! Can you call the manager?
Call him. More tickets.
More tickets. No. Again.
I've scanned it already. Next. I can't see it.
This one doesn't scan anymore. But...
No. Those two. It won't scan anymore, ma'am.
But this one is new.
We've already scanned it. It won't scan anymore. See? Go on.
Mari Carmen, please come to register number five.
Green and blue colored pepper.
Miss Susana wants to get married.
She doesn't want us to know who her...
I couldn't take it anymore.
The new girl looks so serious. What could be wrong with her?
Well... maybe she needs friends.
Are you coming with us this weekend?
I'm grounded for my grades. No shit!
How can you be grounded if you passed them all?
I'm not saying anything, but your parents are old geezers.
Then you shut your fucking mouth.
- I'll shut up if I want to.
- You will shut up, girl.
Enough. Let's go, Jeni.
- Clau...
- I have to get screwed.
- It's not her fault.
- I have to get screwed because of her.
You're not right.
Hi, can I have some?
Well, never mind.
Um... My name is Lucia
and my Chinese name is Yun, but I prefer my Spanish name.
I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come play
jump rope.
You're putting up the Christmas lights already? There's still a month left!
Good evening, Shui. How are you?
It's late. I'm tired.
Ring me up, please.
3.90.
What's wrong?
What is it?
Why are you laughing?
No, sorry, Shui. I thought it was something...
about taxes or something. No. It's...
Lucia's letter to the Three Wise Men.
And she asked for the Monster High... I don't understand.
Let's see. Um...
Look.
In Spain there's a Christmas tradition
where kids write a letter
and on the fifth of January... I "know" Three Wise Men.
I "sell" toys.
Sure, so that's it. She asked for the Monster High.
That's nonsense.
I already give a present for Chinese New Year.
Red envelopes with money.
The kids from her school are all going to get a present,
and if she has none... I'm not giving her much more.
She doesn't work, she doesn't help my shop much.
She can't get any more presents.
But she believes in the Three Wise Men.
She'll be sad. No.
Listen to me. I know it's silly.
But... But she studies...
very badly.
Bad grades. Just a seven.
No. She can't get more. She'll be sad...
No more presents.
Amaya.
What's wrong, honey?
It's just that my mom hasn't sent the letter yet.
and last year she didn't do it either.
No, honey. You'll see, this year she will send it.
I have an idea.
Wait.
What if you send it?
Here.
Come on, kiddo.
Whose joint is this?
- Mine, mine.
- Yours?
Damn, it's strong. Take that.
Dude, that's from the garden.
Some garden you have.
Yesterday I made a cootie catcher that had four good things
and a terrible one that I didn't like.
Chinese girl, you dance so well.
She'll eat you, dude.
Dude, don't call me "Chinese" again.
Fucking Moor.
Do you know the difference between you and me?
What?
I don't mind being called "Moor". I'm proud.
But you hate being called what you are: a Chinese girl.
Asshole.
Why was he saying all those things?
Nothing, he's just dumb.
I'm gonna steal her from you. You'll see.
- She'll listen to me. Wanna see?
- Yeah.
You do? You'll see.
- Come on, go away.
- I said yes. Wanna see?
Don't touch me, asshole!
The ecosystem...
of the Mediterranean.
Very good. This term we're going to do
a project about the Mediterranean ecosystem.
- Okay? Agreed?
- Yes!
Everything we've studied must be included.
- Okay?
- Okay.
We'll have two weeks. What do you think?
- Just enough.
- Just enough?
- Why not four?
- We have two weeks.
Susana, what are you doing?
You have to listen to the teacher. Put down the notebook. Come on.
Let's continue.
Well. Um... How are we going to do the project?
We're going to do a project on the computer.
- Okay.
- Alright.
- You like it?
- Yes!
Great! Or we can do a collage
and mix all the images.
Okay? We'll work in pairs.
Yes, Susana?
Can I work with Lucia?
No, this time you can't work with Lucia
because you always work together.
We'll work according to the list order.
That way you work with other classmates and not always the same person.
- Okay.
- Good. Let's begin.
Ariana Luna will work with India Delgado.
- Great!
- Wow! I love this.
Susana Navarro will work with Nicolas Neira.
Nico is an idiot.
- I know.
- What's up, girls?
I got paired with a good classmate.
Of course, they all are.
Sebastian Nunes will work with Eric Ortiz.
- Teacher.
- Yes?
Can we include Cristian too?
If we include him, we'll be three,
and we said we're working in pairs.
Lucia Li will work with Xiang Lopez.
- Dana Martinez and Daisa Montero.
- Hi.
Jazmin Paredes will work with Adriana Perdiguero.
- Great!
- You're lucky. You're with Xiang.
- Very good.
- You must be happy, right?
Yes.
...will work with Antoni Villota.
- Great!
- Very good.
Xiang!
Xiang! Xiang!
I thought we could do... Um... like... Oh!
We got paired together and the teacher wants everything to be right.
She's very strict, so I thought
because at my house we can't
because it's boring because I share a room with my sister, that one over there.
And she doesn't even let me paint the wall the color I want,
which is purple.
So I thought it would be best to do it at your house
and then I can play with you,
have a snack and do the project. What do you think?
Look, we can do a collage.
You look for pictures and stick them on a poster board.
Yun, eat your food!
Mom, don't call me Yun, call me Lucia.
What do you mean Lucia? Your name is Yun.
Eat.
But dad...
Rou, put the phone down and eat.
Wait...
For once we're eating as a family...
Your dad closed the shop to have dinner with us.
But you're watching TV though...
I'll just turn it off.
Put the phone down and have dinner.
You never do as I say. Enough phone.
Give me the phone, mom.
We're not giving the phone back.
Eat dinner.
Give me the phone or I'll go with my friends.
Dad, it's Friday, let me go out.
No. It's too late to go out.
You can't.
Eat dinner.
No phone, no going out... What have I done to you?
You only think about going out.
When you get better grades and help at home,
then you can do as you please.
Yeah, sure.
Always saying the same thing.
When have I ever been able to do what I want?
If I don't get above a 9, you say it's a bad grade.
I have to go to the shop every afternoon and on weekends.
My friends don't have to work.
They're Spanish.
I'm Spanish too!
You're Chinese. We're different.
Then why are we in Spain?
We're here for you.
We've been in Spain for 20 years. 20 years!
Other Chinese families have a house and a car of their own, and we have nothing.
We work over ten hours a day.
You don't care how tired we are.
Is that my fucking fault?
Watch your mouth.
Speak in Chinese, not Spanish.
Speak in Chinese. Don't talk to me in Spanish.
Why can't we speak in Spanish?
You've been here half your life and can't even say "Hello".
Don't talk to me like that!
Speak with respect to your father!
Do you want to know why we don't know Spanish?
We don't have your good life, where you can go to school to learn.
Since I was little I've done everything.
I'm the one who goes to the bank, who fills out the documents...
I go to parents' meetings alone. I even enrolled Lucia in school.
I'm a kid too. Why do I have to do all that?
You're the older sister. This is how all Chinese families do it.
When Yun grows up she'll also have to help us.
You only think about having fun.
And you about working at the shop.
I have to take care of the house and cook
and look after my sister.
What do you mean I only know how to have fun?
It's your duty. That's how Chinese families are.
We're all like this.
No, damn it, it's not my obligation!
None of my friends have to do all this!
In these 20 years we've been here, we don't have a single friend.
Do you think we're very comfortable here?
Do you think we like being here?
All this effort is so you'll have good jobs in the future.
Then we can go back to China and you take care of your parents.
Take care of my parents?
Take care of you or take care of my grandparents?
I was born here but you sent me to China when I was a baby.
My grandparents raised me.
Not you.
What right do you have to complain?
I was happy in China.
But when I was six, you forced me to come to Spain.
I didn't know Spanish, and I didn't even know who you were.
No one asked my opinion.
My grandparents are the ones who really love me.
Not you.
You don't care about my feelings.
When I walk down the street,
people call me "Chinese", "little Chinese".
Have you done anything about it?
Did I ever ask you to bring me to Spain?
I didn't even ask you to be my parents!
You don't need to have dinner anymore.
Go to your room.
And think about what you've done wrong.
You know what?
I'm fucking sick of you.
I'm fed up with the damn shop.
Everyone has a normal life but me. The only fucking loser.
For having Chinese parents.
Damn it!
Yun, what did your sister say?
That she loves you and that she's sorry.
She knows she was wrong and she's going to her room to do her homework.
Yun.
When you grow up, don't be like your sister.
That's it, I'm not eating anymore.
Eat.
Don't stress about dinner.
Come here.
- You know what?
- What?
Tomorrow I have swimming lessons.
Mom and dad won't let you go. They'll think it's a waste of money.
But it's free.
Then it's okay, right?
Yes, but the problem is I don't have a swimsuit.
I just thought of an idea.
Look.
We wait for mom and dad to come back from the shop, okay?
Yeah, and for them to go to bed.
And now you're going to pretend to be asleep.
Okay?
Come on.
But what?
It shows that... Pretend to be asleep for real, come on.
Like that.
But don't actually fall asleep.
I come down a lot when you're all asleep.
Really? Shhhh.
I didn't know.
Wait for me.
If mom and dad catch us...
Come.
Let's see. These are too long.
Let's see...
This one neither.
This one is perfect. What do you think?
Do you know what we need?
- What?
- Scissors.
Here they are, look.
Hold this.
Kiddo, tomorrow you're going to swimming lessons.
Yes!
That's it. Faster with your feet, come on!
Good!
Faster, come on! Lift your feet!
That's it, sweetie. Grab the edge. That's it.
Move your feet hard. Splashing.
That's it! Very good. Come on, girls, let's continue.
Do you want to see something incredible?
Yes.
Put your head into the water and look at the grown-ups.
How? Like this.
So cool!
Do you want to come to my birthday after Three Wise Men's Day?
It's at Burger King.
Come on, girls, don't stop moving your feet.
That's it.
Are you Wang?
Yes. Are you Claudia?
My parents say I have to invite you. What do you feel like having?
- A Coke.
- Okay.
I also brought some fries in case you wanted some.
How old are you?
I... I'm 25.
This is bullshit.
My parents say I should have a girlfriend.
It's the third date they've set up for me.
And they're okay with a 17-year-old girl?
Seriously, dude?
Hey, I wasn't talking about you.
You seem like a nice guy.
But it's just...
Don't worry, it's just that I...
I don't want to either...
I'm inter... I'm interested in a girl from work.
Say you like her.
Listen.
Would you do me a favor?
Make a wish!
Good morning, students.
Good morning, teacher.
You may sit down.
Today we're going to review a type of sentence
with the question: Why?
Do you remember any example we studied?
Yes, we remember.
Xiang, answer the teacher.
Why do you want to study Chinese?
Xiang!
Why do you want to study Chinese?
Xiang, why do you want to study Chinese?
My parents forced me.
She must be coming out now.
Good thing we're not coming next Sunday.
Why aren't we coming?
Because of the thing at my parents' house, the lunch.
Yes, but we'll get there in plenty of time.
After class. No, no.
We'll arrive at lunchtime,
my mom gets stressed, you get stressed because you want to go...
We'll arrive in the morning as we should.
She can't miss a class
just so we arrive and your mom doesn't get stressed.
Why not? Because this is important.
We talked about it.
We agreed. Important for her or for you?
We both talked about it!
It's the first thing the association says is important.
I didn't think it was that important. You did.
Okay? That's why we did it.
Just like everything lately. Because you think it's important.
- Oh, because of me?
- Yes.
You wanted to sign her up for Chinese, I wasn't so sure.
Just like the school change. Was that only me too?
Yes, you were so sure.
- The psychologist...
- You don't think it's a good idea?
- Well, no.
- Thanks for telling me.
You decide everything by yourself. Someone has to decide things.
This is important, these are her roots...
- Can we keep it?
- Her roots?
She's not Chinese, she's Spanish. She only has Asian features.
- Let's see if you understand.
- Julian...
Are you getting a divorce?
Come here, love.
What do you feel like?
Oh!
Some hot chocolate?
Orange juice?
Pretty girl.
Go call your sister.
Thank you.
You're very thin.
How old are you?
I'm 25.
Claudia says she needs five minutes.
Claudia and Wang are getting married!
What do you do for work?
I work at a mobile phone company.
How much do you earn per month?
I just started and I don't earn much yet.
1200 euros a month.
You only earn 1200?
With time I suppose they'll raise it.
And your parents' restaurant in Usera, is it still open?
Is your mom in good health?
Yes, my parents still have the restaurant.
My parents are in good health.
Just that my mom has circulation problems.
Tell her to drink dandelion tea for her legs.
There's lots in Casa de Campo.
Okay. I'll tell her from you.
Why are you dressed like that?
Oh, leave me alone.
Let's go.
Thank you very much for your welcome.
I'm making you responsible for her.
Goodbye.
Let's go.
Don't come later than 10:30 p.m. Yes.
Thanks, dude, you're a star.
Bye.
And don't drink!
Let's go get more bottles and that's it.
Let's see which Chinese store is open now.
It's your moment, look who's there for you to do it.
No, girl. I'm embarrassed.
- Your boob's gonna pop out.
- Well.
But honey!
Yeah, run. Tell your friends.
El Escape is "escaped".
Bam, bam, bam!
El Escape has "escaped".
What are you talking about? What were you?
El Escape broke up with Zaira.
What are you saying? What happened?
Apparently, Zaira was super toxic and jealous.
El Escape doesn't like that.
He goes out with whoever he wants, and if he wants to play El Muelle, he plays.
What's El Muelle? Look at the fucking nun, she has no clue.
Hey! These pigs, huh!
What's wrong with you? Airhead!
- What are you saying?
- They go with some
who play El Muelle, some whores from Orcasitas.
- Shut up!
- I said shut up, slut!
- Shut up!
- You better sit down.
- Brats!
- Look at this dyke...
So, anyway, girl, that...
El Escape is as free as a cab.
Look at the little Moor dancing.
Fucking Moor, I don't know what he has against me.
What are you looking at, Moor?
Hey, the Chinese girl and the Moor. Assholes.
A UN ad for the school promo.
What's up, gorgeous?
- You're looking very beautiful.
- So do you.
Claudia, what are you doing here?
How's it going? I wanted to see you.
Today you're going to flip. Show them, bro.
Buy some tequilas, right?
Don't overdo it. Here, I'll change it for you.
You're so gorgeous, you drive me crazy.
- So beautiful.
- Have you seen the girl?
Of course, all night. Come with me, come on.
- Come on, let's go.
- See you.
Well, well...
- I'm going crazy.
- Yeah, yeah...
I'm going to be able to go out more. I'm so happy.
Are you going to have a shot with me or what?
Yeah? Okay.
Damn, dude.
I forgot the glasses.
I sent this Moor and he probably got lost somewhere stoned...
No big deal, do you mind?
No?
Tilt your head back.
I'll give you tequila.
Hey!
What are you doing? I didn't mean to, sorry.
Better, so you don't spill it... Okay.
Better without a glass, right?
- Brother, give me the tequila.
- Go away, dude.
Keep at your shit. The party has started.
Tell me everything. You've seen it.
- Did he feel you up?
- What did he touch?
He told me I look beautiful and that...
But what else? Oh!
That... Did you touch his muelle?
Oh!
You're spilling my drink, girl!
Did it take her long to fall asleep?
The usual, Sol.
Two songs,
three stories, the tickles, the massages, the little ants...
It never ends.
It never ends.
Have you ever regretted it?
What?
Xiang.
Just some tequila shots.
Come on, let's go.
Don't pull me!
We're late. Do you have gum? No.
Here.
Don't pull me!
Come on.
"Guests from 5.95"
Well, I can only afford five.
I want a soda.
What did she say she wants?
She says she wants something to drink.
We only have water.
Water, okay?
I want some too, Dad.
It's warm.
In China this is typical.
You know, we heat it up and then it's better.
Um... how do you use this?
No, not like that. Look.
My dad will teach you.
One here, one here...
Yes.
Little, um...
Much... little hard, okay?
A little hard.
The food! Whoa!
That's everything, kiddos.
There's no room.
This is super delicious. Do you want soup?
Here, eat this. This is really tasty.
Eat. It's very good.
It's very tasty. My daughter
likes it a lot. Eat.
Why that face?
What's wrong with her? What's wrong with you?
Here, have this then.
Eat a little, tell her to eat.
I'm not going to eat this, not even as a joke.
She's adorable!
How? What happened?
You're scared.
Tell her it's the best food we have.
This is like
the specialty of the house.
Don't scare her!
I bite the fingers first.
So she doesn't like everything? Look, then this.
Tell her to eat.
How disgusting!
She said: "How disgusting!"
No, not this one.
She never eats this at home.
Where's the fried rice and spring rolls?
She's asking for fried rice and spring rolls.
Look, eat this.
And then I'll tell your mom you "eat" well,
"sleep" well, everything well, okay?
Here.
She can't like that.
Eat more! Here!
That doesn't fit on her plate!
Okay?
Eat a little!
Mom, it's too big!
The small one, okay?
It's the worst day of my life.
She said it's the worst day of her life.
It can't be.
Don't worry, later I have a little surprise for you.
Okay.
Tell her that her coming here today makes us very happy.
and she's always welcome for dinner.
- How many "hands" do you have?
- I don't understand you.
Siblings.
- Two.
- Two?
Twins.
What did she say?
Twins. A boy and a girl.
Identical twins?
Twins.
I understand identical twins better.
And your mom and dad?
Where do they work?
My mom's a nursing assistant and my dad is...
an electrician.
I don't understand.
She says her mom is like a doctor
but she's not exactly a doctor.
And her dad is...
an electrician.
How do you say it?
I don't know either.
What? What happened?
Wow.
Seriously, what came out?
Well, now you take one of me.
Let's see.
Oh, you blinded me!
Nothing's coming out!
You're mean!
I'm falling like a little pig.
- You want me to put it on?
- Yes.
Let's see, put your feet in.
I don't know how I put it on before, honestly.
My sister helped me.
I put it on inside out.
Me, me, me!
Me!
Me!
Let's see.
I don't get why they called your sister "banana"
if we both have the same skin color.
Look.
Well, I'm more yellow.
No way! Minions are yellow.
And your hair, how many times do you brush it?
Because it's really beautiful.
Just when I get up.
What pretty eyes.
You must not see very well, because your eyes are...
they're kind of... a little closed.
I hadn't thought about it.
No.
At least I think so.
Can you see all of me? Yes.
And can you see the ceiling and the floor?
Well, the ceiling no, but the floor yes.
And can you see all of me with the ceiling too?
Well, the ceiling...
I'm the same as you, I see it a little less.
I have an idea!
What is it? You'll see.
Let's see.
Grab two band-aids.
I'm going to take off your glasses, okay? Okay.
Let's see.
Close your eye.
There!
Let's see, and now this one, okay?
I'm going to do the same to you, but the other way around.
Okay.
Let's see, I'll put the other one on you.
Do you see more?
Well yes, and do you see less?
Well yes.
You're going to be amazed.
Shhhh!
Wow, the horse is so cool!
Shhhh, quiet.
Okay, okay.
What is this?
Is this for real?
When did you get this?
Two months ago.
Why didn't you tell me?
I got scared.
I got scared and I archived it.
And it was there in the saved files folder every day.
Every day for two months.
I knew that if I told you...
you'd want to do the right thing.
Tell Xiang.
My love.
We don't always have to do the right thing.
What do we do?
Tell Xiang.
We have to give her the answers she's been looking for for so long.
And maybe...
Maybe it's what's best for her.
A tiger, a bear...
Another bear, a frog, a T-rex.
Oh!
I'm going to get some gummy worms.
They're so good!
One, another one...
Then another one.
Huh?
I asked if you want to see something amazing.
Wow!
This is the toys section!
So cool!
And look at this racket!
Look, I'm going to juggle.
And on top of that, my two favorite colors.
Look!
I'm coming with you.
I'm gonna turn you into a frog again!
I'm gonna catch you!
I caught you!
No, no. You can't beat me.
My nose!
Ouch!
Now we have math.
Lucia!
Do you know that on the 15th there's a parent-teacher meeting after class?
What?
Yes, my mom saw it on the app.
Mrs. Angelines is going to badmouth me.
Angelines is going to badmouth me too.
But my parents don't know how to check the app.
I don't know what that is either, but my parents do know.
They told me.
I wouldn't worry too much about that.
Just behave well the rest of the days.
Because come on, she'll give you a good grade.
Because you've always behaved well.
That's true.
Hello, Lucia.
Hello, Teresa.
Could you come on the 15th to school?
It's close and it would only be half an hour.
But do you have a performance or something?
Come in.
Why do you have to tell Teresa anything?
Why don't you tell me?
Why are you so disobedient?
You tell things to others and not to your mother.
Come here.
Sit down.
Why are you leaning away?
Have I ever hit you?
You don't understand anything.
You're the one who doesn't understand anything.
If we had stayed in China, you'd be working in the fields now.
Do you know how pretty the principal is?
She goes to the hairdresser to get fixed up.
And my classmates' moms are pretty too.
They're all very pretty.
Do you understand?
Are you ashamed of me?
Mom!
Am I grounded?
Can I not watch TV now?
Throw it down there. What for?
Come on, man.
Turn around, I'm going to change.
Ready?
No, wait.
Ready? No.
Ready.
Man, don't look at me like that.
Chinese girls have small boobs, but we have to make the most of it.
Wait.
What's wrong?
Hey, do you love me?
Are you dumb? How could I not love you?
You're the most special girl I know.
Look how you've got me.
Hey! What's wrong?
You're going a bit fast for me.
Relax, don't be scared.
I just want to be here with you, close.
Are you going to get me horny for nothing?
Didn't you like me so much?
Yes, but it's...
Then come.
Don't be so scared.
You turn me on so much, silly.
Have you seen the Chinese girl or what?
- She's back there, man.
- Go, go.
It's okay.
Chinese girl, are you okay?
Moor, this isn't about you. Go. Out.
I'm talking to her. Are you okay or what?
Do you like me or not?
Yes. You heard her? Come on, go.
Insult me in Spanish, faggot.
You know I could be with anyone?
And I'm here with you. They're not as uptight as you.
Spanish girls suck it.
Fucking hell!
Come on, guys. The party's over.
- Let's go.
- Come on, let's go guys.
Come on, bro, let's go.
Come on, dude.
Always the same with the fucking party.
El Escape has escaped.
Here I'm going to paint myself like a cat.
- Can I play?
- No.
Hey, Xiang.
I don't know what Lucia sees in you when you're rude and treat her badly.
We've known each other since we were in the class
of the dinosaurs. When we were both one year old.
Leave me alone.
See how rude you are?
What I wanted to say. If you want to play jump rope
with us at recess, you can.
Xiang...
I made this. Let's see what you think.
It's very nice.
Really?
Yes.
Lucia!
We can also do a presentation on the computer.
I don't know how to do that.
You can come to my house for a snack.
And my mom can help us.
I haven't seen you at swimming anymore.
It's just that I don't like it.
Well, just so you know, your swimsuit was really pretty.
Good morning, guys. Come on, everyone to your seats.
Let's see.
Start taking out your Spanish books, please.
But your ass is divine.
I love it when you handcuff me.
Put the cuffs on me, I'm your hostage.
What are we doing this weekend?
Girls? Shut up, cunt.
- So annoying.
- She's bitter.
The guys are going to party but they're not inviting us.
Clau, I think it's your fault, honey.
Jeni, listen to what this idiot is saying.
The truth. You didn't do it with El Escape.
And they say we're just brats and they don't want to hang out with kids.
We're not doing anything this weekend.
You're the most virgin of the group. Clau, wake up.
I think they're going with the Orcasitas girls to play El Muelle.
Will you guys tell me what El Muelle is?
Do you want me to tell you?
Fuck this.
Look, the guys are wasted.
And whoever cums first loses.
I've been told El Escape lasts the longest.
I don't understand shit.
Look, the Orcasitas girls dance on them a little
until they get hard. You know what that is?
Of course. Rock.
So, with a boner, they pull down their pants and sit down.
Right, and we change boys every 30 seconds, like Parcheesi.
From goose to goose, and I roll because it's my turn.
But, careful, they can't touch you, not even a damn bit.
You're the one in control.
You decide when you go up, when you go down, and whoever cums first loses.
And what do they lose? You guys don't play that, do you?
No way, girl, not even a chance, how disgusting.
Look at this video. This Latina girl is the fucking boss.
I've seen it, it's trending.
What you just showed me is repulsive.
Oh, you're so boring, Cris.
El Muelle is the game of the moment. Wake up.
- Life's eating you up.
- It's eating you up.
Do you know what STDs are?
Eat me, you. Eat me.
I'll eat both of you whenever you want.
- Ooh, Cris...
- So daring.
- Maybe she's the one after all...
- You wish.
Hello.
Hello!
Did you come alone?
Um, no, I came with my sister Claudia.
Should I have come up with her?
No, no.
I'm Sol, Xiang's mother.
Is this Lucia? Yes.
Come in.
Hello! Hi!
Wow, your house is so beautiful.
Thank you. This is the living room. Wow!
The piano. A piano!
Do you play the piano? Yes.
Wow, what pretty photos.
Look, come to my room.
You looked so beautiful at your communion!
I was eating a cream ice cream.
I want to celebrate my birthday here.
With sparklers and...
a super cool cake with everything.
Cool.
I want to go there, but my parents won't let me.
Why? Because it costs money and we have to save and all that.
Here I was with my mom on the coast.
Your mom is so pretty.
Mine, on the other hand, doesn't wear makeup, doesn't do her hair,
doesn't take care of her skin.
At least she's your real mom.
The Wang boy is wonderful.
He goes out with Rou every Saturday.
I'm also not sure if Wang and Rou make such a good couple.
Don't say that, it was your idea for them to meet.
As good as my granddaughter is,
she's sure to meet someone better.
We're in no rush.
I think that...
Wang is not the right one for Rou.
I spoke with the Hao family.
They say his work efficiency is not very good.
Let's not rush, calmly.
She'll surely find a better one.
Don't tell Feng.
I think Rou likes Wang.
I see her so happy.
Hello, friend!
Mom, I'll leave you, there are customers.
Do you have the gums... Hey! Do you have the lemon gums?
- Bye.
- You know which ones?
Wow, so cool! How much is this one?
I want it for me. Leave it.
- Girl, girl, let's go.
- Are you deaf?
Wait! Let's go.
Hey, listen!
What are you doing? Don't touch me. Are you stupid?
Pay for the beer. What beer?
Pay or I'll call the police.
What police? You can't even speak Spanish.
Move your things. Thief.
- Don't touch her!
- What the hell is wrong with you?
Let her go! Let her go!
Let go of the things, that's mine.
Thieves. I'm a thief?
You're the one who came to steal our jobs.
Move that thing.
You want the beer?
Well then, take it.
- Here!
- Throw it at her, throw it at her!
Girl, let's go. Run, run.
You wanted the beer, right?
- Come on, come on.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye, I'm taking the ring.
- Go on, cry a little. Cry.
What an idiot.
What a fucking moron.
She deserved it a little.
Let's see, we make it bigger...
A little smaller.
Lucia...
What's your last name? Li.
Not "Lusia", Lucia.
Well then, let's prepare the snack.
Oops, careful!
I'm sorry.
Lucia, do you like chocolate spread sandwiches?
Yes.
Claudia, I don't get it.
If you haven't met up with your friends, why didn't you give me the afternoon off?
Because of my parents.
If we don't go out, they'll think something happened.
I can't stand interrogations.
I think that...
you owe me a favor.
Will you help me buy clothes?
Dude, finally.
Do you know the kind of outfits you normally wear?
Let's go for brands. All brands.
I saw some super cool sneakers.
But isn't that expensive?
You'll spend all your money, but I'm telling you it's worth it.
Grab the things, man. The bag, you're spaced out.
Let's go!
Fuck, you're so annoying. Go get a room.
Jeni, are you coming?
Yeah, I'm coming.
Okay, I'll see you then.
I think she still doesn't know.
Hey, girl. Just ignore her. Why?
Tell your sister to get lost and I'll tell you.
Come on, kiddo.
What's up? Didn't you hear what she did?
What? She went with the guys to El Muelle.
Look what El Escape posted.
With the gang.
The slut.
My whole life with her, for this shit.
The worst part is I'm not surprised.
Let's go, come on. Let's go to class, girl.
Leave her alone, it's her loss.
Girl, come on.
Hmm.
How pretty.
What did I tell you about this?
But Mrs. Hao, it's just a plant.
Well, you're wrong, Wang.
It's not just a plant.
It's an insult to my authority.
Grab your things and leave immediately.
But Mrs. Hao,
give me another chance.
Tomorrow morning, go to HR.
Are you okay?
The boss is so angry today!
So scary!
She was really angry today...
Next time it will be us, right?
It's possible.
Better to work.
Well, girl, I'll text you later.
- Bye.
- Goodbye.
Beautiful.
Rou, come down and help your father in the shop!
I can't, I'm meeting Wang!
I ran out of milk again.
1.70.
Where's Lucia?
At home.
Shui!
Um... this is the...
The doll Lucia asked for from the Three Wise Men.
I saw it and I thought...
It's a silly thing. I'll take it to her and that's it.
Okay?
Mmm, no, Lucia doesn't work well.
No present. Take it away.
Shui... No.
It will make her so happy and all her classmates...
No. Your change. Take your things.
And all the classmates from her class will have one,
and in reality
the only thing you'd have to do, Shui...
No, no.
No, take this.
You leave it out at night. Take it away!
And that's it. Really, thank you very much.
Take it away!
What's wrong?
She forgot her change!
Amaya! Your change!
Girl, for real?
After the other day? Are you kidding me?
I just don't want to be alone.
Oh, what's this?
I really don't understand you.
So you want a good party?
Yeah?
Let's go downstairs where the good stuff is.
Come on, kid! That joint there.
Come on, my guys! What a party!
How I like you.
Hey, give me that, kid.
Easy, princess. Go up there, my girl.
Don't die on me, huh.
That's all I need now.
If we don't turn down the music, the cops will come.
Let them come, let's see if they catch me.
My bike's ready, what do you think?
What are you saying, dude? See you now, kid.
Come over here.
Fucking hell, man.
What's wrong with you?
You see the places I bring you to?
Look at these two getting into it.
Go, Lucia!
Are we going back to the party? No, come.
We'll have our own party.
Come over here. Alone is better, right?
Look at this spot. How cool. Here.
To eat you up, my queen.
What are you doing?
What, are you here or what?
Are you going to leave me horny again?
That's why you come looking for me all night? Huh?
Come on, Clau.
Silly.
Come here, come on.
Here, Claudita, here.
Don't you want to be like the other girls?
Come on.
Come on! Suck it!
Come on!
What are you looking at, bro!
Fucking Chinese girl, man!
If you wanted a virgin, you should've gotten a Moorish girl!
Shut your fucking mouth!
Why does it have to be like this?
Why?
Hello, Lucia.
- Hello, Lucia.
- Hello.
Good afternoon, Shui.
Okay, let's see...
As you may know, this is an atypical parent-teacher meeting.
Hmm?
We usually do it with the parents, never with the student,
but since your Spanish level isn't perfect...
Well... maybe you don't...
understand everything.
I'm afraid we have to do it with Lucia so that if you don't understand,
she can translate for you.
I want you to know that...
Lucia is a very hard-working girl.
Mmm... slower.
Just slower.
I was telling you that Lucia behaves very well in class.
Very good in math.
Spanish. No, not louder.
Slower.
What if Lucia translates for you?
I want to understand.
Let's move the camera, I can barely see you.
We can listen first, you don't have to talk.
They said they had a bad connection, be patient.
It's connecting now.
Don't worry.
I'm sorry. Are you Xiang?
You're so tall already!
You're so beautiful.
You look a lot like your sister.
What if we write it down? I think you'll understand better.
My mom can't read Spanish.
Right, if I had to learn Chinese...
Well, there you go.
Well, it's been a pleasure. Nice meeting you.
Why do you have my photo?
Shut up.
Who is it?
Oh, it's Xiang.
A classmate of Lucia's.
She... this photo... um.
Hidden.
Steal.
Steal photo.
Steal? No. Her classmate must have given it to her. Right, Lucia?
Did Xiang give it to you?
She, hidden, the photo.
Did she give it to you?
Did Xiang give it to you?
Wait.
No...
I am not human, I am not a person.
The decision to abandon you
is the stupidest idea I've had in my life.
I am your mom.
I am not a good mother.
Your grandmother took you from me by force.
I had no other choice, I had no other choice.
We had no other options, Xiang.
Your grandmother also passed away.
They, banging on the door...
They want to take you, they want to take you from me.
You were still breastfeeding.
You'd already been with me for over a month.
Separated from your mom, you couldn't sleep.1501
Nine years.
Nine years have passed, daughter.
Every day I've been living this difficult life, Xiang.
I had no other choice.
Can you forgive me? Will you forgive me?
Will you forgive me?
That's enough.
I'm so sorry, Xiang.
I'm so sorry.
Poor thing.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Are you okay, my love?
Let's go!
This is what you get for stealing.
Stand up!
Quickly!
Is this the house?
Yes or no? I don't know.
How can you not know?
Stay still, don't go.
Stay still!
Hello, Lucia.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Hello. I'm Lucia's mother.
- Mom...
- I'm Sol, Xiang's mother.
Stay still, stop pulling!
Let's go!
You didn't tell me you had invited Lucia for a snack.
I didn't invite her.
Come in.
Mom, don't show her the photo!
You can't take other people's things.
My daughter stole the photo.
Mom, let's go!
Lucia, it's okay.
Xiang must have given it to you.
That's a lie.
Thief!
Xiang!
Yun!
- Lucia, please!
- Wait for me!
- I'm sorry.
- Why don't you come in? Lucia!
Yun, wait for mom!
It's all your fault!
This is what happens for taking things that aren't yours.
Stay still!
It's your fault!
Geez, Mom!
Wow!
Mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Careful, you'll burn yourself!
Mom, I love you.
Mom, Dad, at what age will I get married?
With one, with two, with three...
Girl, stop it.
In the end, she went with her kind of people.
And that's it. It doesn't matter.
With the losers, that's it.
Eat with your hand.
There was a boat, and inside that boat
there was a Spaniard and an Englishman.
The Englishman falls off the boat
and then he says: "Help me, help me."
Then the Spaniard says: "I have no gel, but I have shampoo."
Ouch!
Stop throwing fries, geez!
There are no more croquettes.
Goodbye.
Here.
Let's go, I have to be back by seven.
Claudia, you didn't meet up with your friends today either.
Well, I met up with you, didn't I?
Claudia, do you need something?
What do I do?
Do I hug you?
I love it. Have you been here before?
No.
Look how pretty, I could eat her up.
Stand there. I'm going to take a photo of you.
Move to the right so you can see the market sign.
Hey, cous, we're in Usera. What do you expect?
- Ready?
- Yes.
Now me.
I can't believe it.
Luci!
Amaya! Here, Noa.
Amaya!
You look so beautiful, I love your suit.
- Hello.
- Hello, sweetie, how are you?
Where have you been? I haven't seen you since Christmas.
Oh, sweetie, I got transferred to another hospital.
How's your mom?
Great!
My sister Claudia is coming around dressed in red.
She signed up for some fan dancing thing and she's going to dance.
Oh, how cool! I'll go see her now.
How exciting! You look gorgeous!
I have to go!
Lucia!
What?
Did the Three Wise Men bring you something?
I can't hear you!
I said, did the Three Wise Men bring you something?
I have to go, can't you see I'm the dragon's tail?
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
The body of Christ.
Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
- The body of Christ.
- Amen.
They're coming out!
My beautiful girl!
You look gorgeous.
A little princess.
How well you read!
The queen of the party!
- Grandma!
- I'll stain you.
Oh, my girl, my God! My God!
I'm so excited!
We've eaten too much. I don't think I'll even have dinner.
It wasn't too heavy, it was rather light.
A little bird told me you liked the foie gras toasts.
That was at the beginning. - Okay, okay...
Rather light... Maybe the first two servings, yes.
but the third... Dad!
Can I have an ice cream?
Of course, it's your communion. Whatever you want.
Hello.
I want a strawberry ice cream.
Little one, why are you dressed like that?
Mom, because she's a princess.
You are my princess.
Little one, you look like a snowflake.
I'm talking to you. Can't you hear me?
Do you want to buy something?
You don't answer. Say something.
You don't answer. Say something.
Do you want to buy something?
Let's see, my girl. Which ice cream did you choose?
What is that Chinese woman saying?
Xiang!
Xiang!
Are you dressed already?
Xiang, love.
Come on.
Xiang, I know you're nervous.
But you're going to love this school. I promise.
I have a fever.
You don't have a fever. You're scared.
Your uniform is so cool. Look!
I want a normal name.
Xiang is very difficult.
Xiang isn't difficult. It's beautiful. It's your name, my love.
We met you with that name.
It's beautiful.
Come on, really, please.
We have to go to work.
Come on.
Julian!
- What?
- Can you come?
Look.
The one with the motorcycle is El Escape.
How ugly!
He even has a dog collar.
What do you know about boys?
El Escape is the coolest, you have no idea.
Look at the little Chinese girl.
Little Chinese girl.
Are you coming to the park drinking? What do you say?
Fucking Moor, don't call me that. Whoa!
- Hey, banana.
- Don't mess with my Moor, eh.
Poor thing, man.
- Ouch!
- Stop touching.
He fell from the Melilla fence and now he's dumb.
- Come on, fuck off.
- Asshole.
Don't give me the finger, come here.
Let's go, girls.
What he said.
My God, the Chinese girl. I'm gonna mess with her today.
- I'll get her...
- You've got her in the bag.
You can really feel the hormones.
Do you know what my brother says to me?
What?
That I'm clumsy, and he doesn't even know what that means.
He doesn't know what it means? Hi, girls.
- Hi.
- You look so sleepy!
- Come on, girls!
- Don't be late for class.
How are you?
- Girls...
- How are you?
Do you know what these morons posted on Insta?
Haven't you seen it?
That son of a bitch kicked me from his close friends.
No shit.
Why did they call your sister Claudia "banana"?
Because she's yellow on the outside and white inside.
So you're a banana too?
I don't know. I hadn't thought about it.
While
he was looking for
treasures
from boats.
The summer was ending.
The summer was ending.
Susana, "summer" is with two M's.
The summer...
and Victor...
Comma. He remembered
his vacation days
in Benidorm.
His vacation days in Benidorm.
- May I come in?
- Come in.
Come in.
Hello, everybody.
Hello, Mrs. Angelines.
Beln, we have a new student here.
Xiang. Did I pronounce it right?
Yes.
She'll make new friends soon. Right, little one?
- Okay, see you later.
- See you later.
Goodbye, Mrs. Angelines!
Class.
Say hi to Xiang, your new classmate.
Hello, Xiang!
Hello.
Let's find you a seat.
Susana, darling, grab your things and move to the back.
But I want to be with Lucia.
I know, honey,
but it's best if Xiang sits here in...
in the first row.
I don't want to sit there.
OK, so...
Sit there in the back.
Now take out your notebook.
- Hi.
Let's continue with the dictation.
Let's continue.
"His days..."
Good evening.
- Hi, sweetie. How are you, Shui?
- Hello.
Hello.
It's late. I'm tired.
Listen.
- Can you help me find some dinner?
- Okay.
Remember the milk, you didn't have any for breakfast yesterday.
- How much is it, friend?
- Three.
That's too expensive. Give us a discount.
No.
- You know what we did?
- What?
We sewed an ear.
Whoa!
Come.
It's eleven p.m., shouldn't you be sleeping?
Let's see.
Hmm...
Pizza?
Again?
Right. Rice with calamari?
This will do.
Check the expiration date.
Let me see.
- Hmm.
- Look closely.
It's okay.
- Do you want a bracelet?
- Of course.
Four sixty.
We have these ones.
These ones, these ones...
We also have these ones that are like...
- That's my favorite!
- The colorful one?
- One euro.
- Here.
Thanks.
You "eat" badly. Eat more vegetables.
Oh, Shui, please. You sound like my mom.
So your mom is Chinese too?
What?
What do you think?
That she is.
Good morning, Huichu.
Waking up Susana.
Stop, what's going on?
Nothing, I wanted to wake you up from your little dream.
I wasn't dreaming. I was imagining.
What?
What I'd give to have a Chinese store. It'd be so cool.
Having so many toys...
Um... dinosaurs, which I love.
And...
having sweets, chips...
I'd go to that Chinese store.
But don't call it like that.
Call it a shop or dollar store.
We call it that. What can I say?
What's that smell?
- Musta, a joint and you've got her.
- Right.
For once that I come to school, let's do something cool.
Give it to her, Musta. Give it.
Take it, take it! Hey, hey!
Give it to me, Musta! Take it, take it!
Take it!
Hey, hey, hey!
Calm down, bro!
Oh, my Moor. How well my Moor dances.
Move.
I asked my mom
if I could sleep at your house and she said yes.
Why don't you ask yours?
You know how my mom is.
If you don't ask, you don't know if she'll say yes or no.
When I go to your house, we could... um...
have sushi for dinner,
spring rolls and fried rice.
And on top of that you have a Chinese store...
But you know how it stinks?
No matter how much my mom cleans it,
it always stinks horribly.
I mean it.
Not even with the world's best soap!
But you have lots of sweets and...
and toys, and it's so cool.
You even have those machines where you can grab a plushie.
You even have that!
What is she reading?
Has your mom counted the sweets?
No. She hasn't counted them.
Then we could eat a ton of sweets!
I'm telling you, if you eat too many sweets, you'll get a tummy ache.
I'm telling you from experience.
Do you know the new girl's parents are Spanish?
If the girl
is Chinese
and the parents are Spanish, that can't be.
Honey.
Sorry, I get more nervous if you do that.
See you next week.
Remember to bring me the drawing, okay?
Don't forget.
- Good.
- How was it, love?
Okay. Do you want a snack?
Come on, I'll race you.
Sorry, we wanted to ask you how she's doing.
Very well. I think we made the right choice with the change.
She seems happier at this school.
I told her it's a public school with integration programs...
Well, you've seen it. Students from everywhere.
She won't have the same problems.
Has she talked about any classmate, any friend?
She just started, and we've been together for two months.
Let's give her some time. How long?
We have to be patient.
I am very patient, but it's been two months and still...
Hasn't she talked about any classmate, any friend?
Sol.
And what about when she gets angry and says I'm not her mother?
By the way.
we haven't received the consent sheet signed by both of you.
We only have one signature, and it's very important.
Mom.
There are only three months left for my birthday.
Ten years old. You're almost a woman.
Can I invite my friends to celebrate my birthday?
Sure, invite them home.
I'll cook lots of delicious food.
Grilled pork.
fried rice pie, seafood...
cake,
and I'll make you birthday noodles.
Birthday noodles?
My friends celebrate at the amusement park or Burger King.
Do you think we're rich?
What are you thinking! No way.
But my friends won't like
Weird things?
Spaniards don't even have money to eat, and you complain about our food.
Often Spaniards just keep up appearances.
- How much is it?
- One fifty.
The shop barely has any customers.
- Want a bag?
- No, thanks.
Your mom can't buy anything for herself
because we have to pay the rent.
Do your homework!
When you're done, tell your sister to come down and help us.
That's it. Do your homework!
Mom.
Have you had lunch?
Yes.
We have too.
And the girls? All good?
All good.
What about Rou? Is she at the shop?
Rou pays us no attention.
She's thinking all day about going out and having fun.
Anything but helping us in the shop.
On top of that, she wants me to call her Claudia.
I don't even know how to pronounce it.
I raised her until she was six.
As a little girl she was good and obedient.
You always say the same thing.
Why has she changed with you in Spain?
Maybe it's your fault.
Sure, it's my fault. Why do you always say that to me?
You spoiled her and now you blame me.
Wang's son seems like a good kid, and he's from our town.
Why don't they meet and get to know each other?
Don't tell me you want a boyfriend for Rou.
It's too soon. Yes, and we'd all be happy then.
Rou is too young to have a boyfriend.
I just don't want them to forget China,
nor their roots.
Besides, Wang has a good job at a Chinese company.
Tell Rou to call me. I'll tell her.
She respects me and will listen to me.
You're always the same. Right, that's how I am.
Excuse me. Do you have peas?
Aisle on the right. In there.
At the end.
Yun.
Go tell the Spaniard where the peas are.
But I'm doing my homework!
Help me, it'll just take a moment.
Go quickly. Don't be lazy.
Do you guys sell peas at the shop too?
We have everything.
When it rains, Spaniards seek shelter
and we look for umbrellas to sell them.
My daughter is very clever.
The peas are over there.
Oh, thanks.
You're welcome.
No problem, I'll do my best
to improve the company's efficiency.
You'll see the results next month.
Yes, goodbye.
Wang, what is that?
Boss Hao, it's a plant.
Put it away immediately.
Your efficiency is low, and on top you get distracted with silly things.
- Hello, Lucia.
- Hello, Teresa.
Hello, Claudia!
Claudia, dad says you must go down to the shop.
Well, it's not happening.
Just fifty cents.
We remind our customers that only today
you have a 2x1 on perfume items.
Miss Vanesa, please come to register two.
Do you want to take ballet lessons?
At school there are...
as extracurricular activities, there are Tuesdays and Thursdays.
- No...
- You could, you have time.
I was just playing.
Okay, it was just in case you wanted to, Xiang.
Hey. Let's see.
Chinese people through this register, people through the other one, please.
- Xiang.
- Hello.
Hello.
Excuse me. Excuse me. Have you heard what you just said?
- What did I say, ma'am?
- Haven't you heard her?
About... about the Chinese people.
I'm doing this for you. Or do you want to get home late?
Again. I've already scanned it.
For me? Can you give me your name?
It didn't scan. Sure. Vanesa.
But you haven't scanned it. Yes, I have.
You haven't scanned it.
I've scanned it. Next. Again.
- Vanesa, what's your surname?
- Bentez.
Can't you see you can't say that?
Ma'am, it's very late.
Can you call the manager?
Let me finish with this lady.
No. Sorry! Can you call the manager?
Call him. More tickets.
More tickets. No. Again.
I've scanned it already. Next. I can't see it.
This one doesn't scan anymore. But...
No. Those two. It won't scan anymore, ma'am.
But this one is new.
We've already scanned it. It won't scan anymore. See? Go on.
Mari Carmen, please come to register number five.
Green and blue colored pepper.
Miss Susana wants to get married.
She doesn't want us to know who her...
I couldn't take it anymore.
The new girl looks so serious. What could be wrong with her?
Well... maybe she needs friends.
Are you coming with us this weekend?
I'm grounded for my grades. No shit!
How can you be grounded if you passed them all?
I'm not saying anything, but your parents are old geezers.
Then you shut your fucking mouth.
- I'll shut up if I want to.
- You will shut up, girl.
Enough. Let's go, Jeni.
- Clau...
- I have to get screwed.
- It's not her fault.
- I have to get screwed because of her.
You're not right.
Hi, can I have some?
Well, never mind.
Um... My name is Lucia
and my Chinese name is Yun, but I prefer my Spanish name.
I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come play
jump rope.
You're putting up the Christmas lights already? There's still a month left!
Good evening, Shui. How are you?
It's late. I'm tired.
Ring me up, please.
3.90.
What's wrong?
What is it?
Why are you laughing?
No, sorry, Shui. I thought it was something...
about taxes or something. No. It's...
Lucia's letter to the Three Wise Men.
And she asked for the Monster High... I don't understand.
Let's see. Um...
Look.
In Spain there's a Christmas tradition
where kids write a letter
and on the fifth of January... I "know" Three Wise Men.
I "sell" toys.
Sure, so that's it. She asked for the Monster High.
That's nonsense.
I already give a present for Chinese New Year.
Red envelopes with money.
The kids from her school are all going to get a present,
and if she has none... I'm not giving her much more.
She doesn't work, she doesn't help my shop much.
She can't get any more presents.
But she believes in the Three Wise Men.
She'll be sad. No.
Listen to me. I know it's silly.
But... But she studies...
very badly.
Bad grades. Just a seven.
No. She can't get more. She'll be sad...
No more presents.
Amaya.
What's wrong, honey?
It's just that my mom hasn't sent the letter yet.
and last year she didn't do it either.
No, honey. You'll see, this year she will send it.
I have an idea.
Wait.
What if you send it?
Here.
Come on, kiddo.
Whose joint is this?
- Mine, mine.
- Yours?
Damn, it's strong. Take that.
Dude, that's from the garden.
Some garden you have.
Yesterday I made a cootie catcher that had four good things
and a terrible one that I didn't like.
Chinese girl, you dance so well.
She'll eat you, dude.
Dude, don't call me "Chinese" again.
Fucking Moor.
Do you know the difference between you and me?
What?
I don't mind being called "Moor". I'm proud.
But you hate being called what you are: a Chinese girl.
Asshole.
Why was he saying all those things?
Nothing, he's just dumb.
I'm gonna steal her from you. You'll see.
- She'll listen to me. Wanna see?
- Yeah.
You do? You'll see.
- Come on, go away.
- I said yes. Wanna see?
Don't touch me, asshole!
The ecosystem...
of the Mediterranean.
Very good. This term we're going to do
a project about the Mediterranean ecosystem.
- Okay? Agreed?
- Yes!
Everything we've studied must be included.
- Okay?
- Okay.
We'll have two weeks. What do you think?
- Just enough.
- Just enough?
- Why not four?
- We have two weeks.
Susana, what are you doing?
You have to listen to the teacher. Put down the notebook. Come on.
Let's continue.
Well. Um... How are we going to do the project?
We're going to do a project on the computer.
- Okay.
- Alright.
- You like it?
- Yes!
Great! Or we can do a collage
and mix all the images.
Okay? We'll work in pairs.
Yes, Susana?
Can I work with Lucia?
No, this time you can't work with Lucia
because you always work together.
We'll work according to the list order.
That way you work with other classmates and not always the same person.
- Okay.
- Good. Let's begin.
Ariana Luna will work with India Delgado.
- Great!
- Wow! I love this.
Susana Navarro will work with Nicolas Neira.
Nico is an idiot.
- I know.
- What's up, girls?
I got paired with a good classmate.
Of course, they all are.
Sebastian Nunes will work with Eric Ortiz.
- Teacher.
- Yes?
Can we include Cristian too?
If we include him, we'll be three,
and we said we're working in pairs.
Lucia Li will work with Xiang Lopez.
- Dana Martinez and Daisa Montero.
- Hi.
Jazmin Paredes will work with Adriana Perdiguero.
- Great!
- You're lucky. You're with Xiang.
- Very good.
- You must be happy, right?
Yes.
...will work with Antoni Villota.
- Great!
- Very good.
Xiang!
Xiang! Xiang!
I thought we could do... Um... like... Oh!
We got paired together and the teacher wants everything to be right.
She's very strict, so I thought
because at my house we can't
because it's boring because I share a room with my sister, that one over there.
And she doesn't even let me paint the wall the color I want,
which is purple.
So I thought it would be best to do it at your house
and then I can play with you,
have a snack and do the project. What do you think?
Look, we can do a collage.
You look for pictures and stick them on a poster board.
Yun, eat your food!
Mom, don't call me Yun, call me Lucia.
What do you mean Lucia? Your name is Yun.
Eat.
But dad...
Rou, put the phone down and eat.
Wait...
For once we're eating as a family...
Your dad closed the shop to have dinner with us.
But you're watching TV though...
I'll just turn it off.
Put the phone down and have dinner.
You never do as I say. Enough phone.
Give me the phone, mom.
We're not giving the phone back.
Eat dinner.
Give me the phone or I'll go with my friends.
Dad, it's Friday, let me go out.
No. It's too late to go out.
You can't.
Eat dinner.
No phone, no going out... What have I done to you?
You only think about going out.
When you get better grades and help at home,
then you can do as you please.
Yeah, sure.
Always saying the same thing.
When have I ever been able to do what I want?
If I don't get above a 9, you say it's a bad grade.
I have to go to the shop every afternoon and on weekends.
My friends don't have to work.
They're Spanish.
I'm Spanish too!
You're Chinese. We're different.
Then why are we in Spain?
We're here for you.
We've been in Spain for 20 years. 20 years!
Other Chinese families have a house and a car of their own, and we have nothing.
We work over ten hours a day.
You don't care how tired we are.
Is that my fucking fault?
Watch your mouth.
Speak in Chinese, not Spanish.
Speak in Chinese. Don't talk to me in Spanish.
Why can't we speak in Spanish?
You've been here half your life and can't even say "Hello".
Don't talk to me like that!
Speak with respect to your father!
Do you want to know why we don't know Spanish?
We don't have your good life, where you can go to school to learn.
Since I was little I've done everything.
I'm the one who goes to the bank, who fills out the documents...
I go to parents' meetings alone. I even enrolled Lucia in school.
I'm a kid too. Why do I have to do all that?
You're the older sister. This is how all Chinese families do it.
When Yun grows up she'll also have to help us.
You only think about having fun.
And you about working at the shop.
I have to take care of the house and cook
and look after my sister.
What do you mean I only know how to have fun?
It's your duty. That's how Chinese families are.
We're all like this.
No, damn it, it's not my obligation!
None of my friends have to do all this!
In these 20 years we've been here, we don't have a single friend.
Do you think we're very comfortable here?
Do you think we like being here?
All this effort is so you'll have good jobs in the future.
Then we can go back to China and you take care of your parents.
Take care of my parents?
Take care of you or take care of my grandparents?
I was born here but you sent me to China when I was a baby.
My grandparents raised me.
Not you.
What right do you have to complain?
I was happy in China.
But when I was six, you forced me to come to Spain.
I didn't know Spanish, and I didn't even know who you were.
No one asked my opinion.
My grandparents are the ones who really love me.
Not you.
You don't care about my feelings.
When I walk down the street,
people call me "Chinese", "little Chinese".
Have you done anything about it?
Did I ever ask you to bring me to Spain?
I didn't even ask you to be my parents!
You don't need to have dinner anymore.
Go to your room.
And think about what you've done wrong.
You know what?
I'm fucking sick of you.
I'm fed up with the damn shop.
Everyone has a normal life but me. The only fucking loser.
For having Chinese parents.
Damn it!
Yun, what did your sister say?
That she loves you and that she's sorry.
She knows she was wrong and she's going to her room to do her homework.
Yun.
When you grow up, don't be like your sister.
That's it, I'm not eating anymore.
Eat.
Don't stress about dinner.
Come here.
- You know what?
- What?
Tomorrow I have swimming lessons.
Mom and dad won't let you go. They'll think it's a waste of money.
But it's free.
Then it's okay, right?
Yes, but the problem is I don't have a swimsuit.
I just thought of an idea.
Look.
We wait for mom and dad to come back from the shop, okay?
Yeah, and for them to go to bed.
And now you're going to pretend to be asleep.
Okay?
Come on.
But what?
It shows that... Pretend to be asleep for real, come on.
Like that.
But don't actually fall asleep.
I come down a lot when you're all asleep.
Really? Shhhh.
I didn't know.
Wait for me.
If mom and dad catch us...
Come.
Let's see. These are too long.
Let's see...
This one neither.
This one is perfect. What do you think?
Do you know what we need?
- What?
- Scissors.
Here they are, look.
Hold this.
Kiddo, tomorrow you're going to swimming lessons.
Yes!
That's it. Faster with your feet, come on!
Good!
Faster, come on! Lift your feet!
That's it, sweetie. Grab the edge. That's it.
Move your feet hard. Splashing.
That's it! Very good. Come on, girls, let's continue.
Do you want to see something incredible?
Yes.
Put your head into the water and look at the grown-ups.
How? Like this.
So cool!
Do you want to come to my birthday after Three Wise Men's Day?
It's at Burger King.
Come on, girls, don't stop moving your feet.
That's it.
Are you Wang?
Yes. Are you Claudia?
My parents say I have to invite you. What do you feel like having?
- A Coke.
- Okay.
I also brought some fries in case you wanted some.
How old are you?
I... I'm 25.
This is bullshit.
My parents say I should have a girlfriend.
It's the third date they've set up for me.
And they're okay with a 17-year-old girl?
Seriously, dude?
Hey, I wasn't talking about you.
You seem like a nice guy.
But it's just...
Don't worry, it's just that I...
I don't want to either...
I'm inter... I'm interested in a girl from work.
Say you like her.
Listen.
Would you do me a favor?
Make a wish!
Good morning, students.
Good morning, teacher.
You may sit down.
Today we're going to review a type of sentence
with the question: Why?
Do you remember any example we studied?
Yes, we remember.
Xiang, answer the teacher.
Why do you want to study Chinese?
Xiang!
Why do you want to study Chinese?
Xiang, why do you want to study Chinese?
My parents forced me.
She must be coming out now.
Good thing we're not coming next Sunday.
Why aren't we coming?
Because of the thing at my parents' house, the lunch.
Yes, but we'll get there in plenty of time.
After class. No, no.
We'll arrive at lunchtime,
my mom gets stressed, you get stressed because you want to go...
We'll arrive in the morning as we should.
She can't miss a class
just so we arrive and your mom doesn't get stressed.
Why not? Because this is important.
We talked about it.
We agreed. Important for her or for you?
We both talked about it!
It's the first thing the association says is important.
I didn't think it was that important. You did.
Okay? That's why we did it.
Just like everything lately. Because you think it's important.
- Oh, because of me?
- Yes.
You wanted to sign her up for Chinese, I wasn't so sure.
Just like the school change. Was that only me too?
Yes, you were so sure.
- The psychologist...
- You don't think it's a good idea?
- Well, no.
- Thanks for telling me.
You decide everything by yourself. Someone has to decide things.
This is important, these are her roots...
- Can we keep it?
- Her roots?
She's not Chinese, she's Spanish. She only has Asian features.
- Let's see if you understand.
- Julian...
Are you getting a divorce?
Come here, love.
What do you feel like?
Oh!
Some hot chocolate?
Orange juice?
Pretty girl.
Go call your sister.
Thank you.
You're very thin.
How old are you?
I'm 25.
Claudia says she needs five minutes.
Claudia and Wang are getting married!
What do you do for work?
I work at a mobile phone company.
How much do you earn per month?
I just started and I don't earn much yet.
1200 euros a month.
You only earn 1200?
With time I suppose they'll raise it.
And your parents' restaurant in Usera, is it still open?
Is your mom in good health?
Yes, my parents still have the restaurant.
My parents are in good health.
Just that my mom has circulation problems.
Tell her to drink dandelion tea for her legs.
There's lots in Casa de Campo.
Okay. I'll tell her from you.
Why are you dressed like that?
Oh, leave me alone.
Let's go.
Thank you very much for your welcome.
I'm making you responsible for her.
Goodbye.
Let's go.
Don't come later than 10:30 p.m. Yes.
Thanks, dude, you're a star.
Bye.
And don't drink!
Let's go get more bottles and that's it.
Let's see which Chinese store is open now.
It's your moment, look who's there for you to do it.
No, girl. I'm embarrassed.
- Your boob's gonna pop out.
- Well.
But honey!
Yeah, run. Tell your friends.
El Escape is "escaped".
Bam, bam, bam!
El Escape has "escaped".
What are you talking about? What were you?
El Escape broke up with Zaira.
What are you saying? What happened?
Apparently, Zaira was super toxic and jealous.
El Escape doesn't like that.
He goes out with whoever he wants, and if he wants to play El Muelle, he plays.
What's El Muelle? Look at the fucking nun, she has no clue.
Hey! These pigs, huh!
What's wrong with you? Airhead!
- What are you saying?
- They go with some
who play El Muelle, some whores from Orcasitas.
- Shut up!
- I said shut up, slut!
- Shut up!
- You better sit down.
- Brats!
- Look at this dyke...
So, anyway, girl, that...
El Escape is as free as a cab.
Look at the little Moor dancing.
Fucking Moor, I don't know what he has against me.
What are you looking at, Moor?
Hey, the Chinese girl and the Moor. Assholes.
A UN ad for the school promo.
What's up, gorgeous?
- You're looking very beautiful.
- So do you.
Claudia, what are you doing here?
How's it going? I wanted to see you.
Today you're going to flip. Show them, bro.
Buy some tequilas, right?
Don't overdo it. Here, I'll change it for you.
You're so gorgeous, you drive me crazy.
- So beautiful.
- Have you seen the girl?
Of course, all night. Come with me, come on.
- Come on, let's go.
- See you.
Well, well...
- I'm going crazy.
- Yeah, yeah...
I'm going to be able to go out more. I'm so happy.
Are you going to have a shot with me or what?
Yeah? Okay.
Damn, dude.
I forgot the glasses.
I sent this Moor and he probably got lost somewhere stoned...
No big deal, do you mind?
No?
Tilt your head back.
I'll give you tequila.
Hey!
What are you doing? I didn't mean to, sorry.
Better, so you don't spill it... Okay.
Better without a glass, right?
- Brother, give me the tequila.
- Go away, dude.
Keep at your shit. The party has started.
Tell me everything. You've seen it.
- Did he feel you up?
- What did he touch?
He told me I look beautiful and that...
But what else? Oh!
That... Did you touch his muelle?
Oh!
You're spilling my drink, girl!
Did it take her long to fall asleep?
The usual, Sol.
Two songs,
three stories, the tickles, the massages, the little ants...
It never ends.
It never ends.
Have you ever regretted it?
What?
Xiang.
Just some tequila shots.
Come on, let's go.
Don't pull me!
We're late. Do you have gum? No.
Here.
Don't pull me!
Come on.
"Guests from 5.95"
Well, I can only afford five.
I want a soda.
What did she say she wants?
She says she wants something to drink.
We only have water.
Water, okay?
I want some too, Dad.
It's warm.
In China this is typical.
You know, we heat it up and then it's better.
Um... how do you use this?
No, not like that. Look.
My dad will teach you.
One here, one here...
Yes.
Little, um...
Much... little hard, okay?
A little hard.
The food! Whoa!
That's everything, kiddos.
There's no room.
This is super delicious. Do you want soup?
Here, eat this. This is really tasty.
Eat. It's very good.
It's very tasty. My daughter
likes it a lot. Eat.
Why that face?
What's wrong with her? What's wrong with you?
Here, have this then.
Eat a little, tell her to eat.
I'm not going to eat this, not even as a joke.
She's adorable!
How? What happened?
You're scared.
Tell her it's the best food we have.
This is like
the specialty of the house.
Don't scare her!
I bite the fingers first.
So she doesn't like everything? Look, then this.
Tell her to eat.
How disgusting!
She said: "How disgusting!"
No, not this one.
She never eats this at home.
Where's the fried rice and spring rolls?
She's asking for fried rice and spring rolls.
Look, eat this.
And then I'll tell your mom you "eat" well,
"sleep" well, everything well, okay?
Here.
She can't like that.
Eat more! Here!
That doesn't fit on her plate!
Okay?
Eat a little!
Mom, it's too big!
The small one, okay?
It's the worst day of my life.
She said it's the worst day of her life.
It can't be.
Don't worry, later I have a little surprise for you.
Okay.
Tell her that her coming here today makes us very happy.
and she's always welcome for dinner.
- How many "hands" do you have?
- I don't understand you.
Siblings.
- Two.
- Two?
Twins.
What did she say?
Twins. A boy and a girl.
Identical twins?
Twins.
I understand identical twins better.
And your mom and dad?
Where do they work?
My mom's a nursing assistant and my dad is...
an electrician.
I don't understand.
She says her mom is like a doctor
but she's not exactly a doctor.
And her dad is...
an electrician.
How do you say it?
I don't know either.
What? What happened?
Wow.
Seriously, what came out?
Well, now you take one of me.
Let's see.
Oh, you blinded me!
Nothing's coming out!
You're mean!
I'm falling like a little pig.
- You want me to put it on?
- Yes.
Let's see, put your feet in.
I don't know how I put it on before, honestly.
My sister helped me.
I put it on inside out.
Me, me, me!
Me!
Me!
Let's see.
I don't get why they called your sister "banana"
if we both have the same skin color.
Look.
Well, I'm more yellow.
No way! Minions are yellow.
And your hair, how many times do you brush it?
Because it's really beautiful.
Just when I get up.
What pretty eyes.
You must not see very well, because your eyes are...
they're kind of... a little closed.
I hadn't thought about it.
No.
At least I think so.
Can you see all of me? Yes.
And can you see the ceiling and the floor?
Well, the ceiling no, but the floor yes.
And can you see all of me with the ceiling too?
Well, the ceiling...
I'm the same as you, I see it a little less.
I have an idea!
What is it? You'll see.
Let's see.
Grab two band-aids.
I'm going to take off your glasses, okay? Okay.
Let's see.
Close your eye.
There!
Let's see, and now this one, okay?
I'm going to do the same to you, but the other way around.
Okay.
Let's see, I'll put the other one on you.
Do you see more?
Well yes, and do you see less?
Well yes.
You're going to be amazed.
Shhhh!
Wow, the horse is so cool!
Shhhh, quiet.
Okay, okay.
What is this?
Is this for real?
When did you get this?
Two months ago.
Why didn't you tell me?
I got scared.
I got scared and I archived it.
And it was there in the saved files folder every day.
Every day for two months.
I knew that if I told you...
you'd want to do the right thing.
Tell Xiang.
My love.
We don't always have to do the right thing.
What do we do?
Tell Xiang.
We have to give her the answers she's been looking for for so long.
And maybe...
Maybe it's what's best for her.
A tiger, a bear...
Another bear, a frog, a T-rex.
Oh!
I'm going to get some gummy worms.
They're so good!
One, another one...
Then another one.
Huh?
I asked if you want to see something amazing.
Wow!
This is the toys section!
So cool!
And look at this racket!
Look, I'm going to juggle.
And on top of that, my two favorite colors.
Look!
I'm coming with you.
I'm gonna turn you into a frog again!
I'm gonna catch you!
I caught you!
No, no. You can't beat me.
My nose!
Ouch!
Now we have math.
Lucia!
Do you know that on the 15th there's a parent-teacher meeting after class?
What?
Yes, my mom saw it on the app.
Mrs. Angelines is going to badmouth me.
Angelines is going to badmouth me too.
But my parents don't know how to check the app.
I don't know what that is either, but my parents do know.
They told me.
I wouldn't worry too much about that.
Just behave well the rest of the days.
Because come on, she'll give you a good grade.
Because you've always behaved well.
That's true.
Hello, Lucia.
Hello, Teresa.
Could you come on the 15th to school?
It's close and it would only be half an hour.
But do you have a performance or something?
Come in.
Why do you have to tell Teresa anything?
Why don't you tell me?
Why are you so disobedient?
You tell things to others and not to your mother.
Come here.
Sit down.
Why are you leaning away?
Have I ever hit you?
You don't understand anything.
You're the one who doesn't understand anything.
If we had stayed in China, you'd be working in the fields now.
Do you know how pretty the principal is?
She goes to the hairdresser to get fixed up.
And my classmates' moms are pretty too.
They're all very pretty.
Do you understand?
Are you ashamed of me?
Mom!
Am I grounded?
Can I not watch TV now?
Throw it down there. What for?
Come on, man.
Turn around, I'm going to change.
Ready?
No, wait.
Ready? No.
Ready.
Man, don't look at me like that.
Chinese girls have small boobs, but we have to make the most of it.
Wait.
What's wrong?
Hey, do you love me?
Are you dumb? How could I not love you?
You're the most special girl I know.
Look how you've got me.
Hey! What's wrong?
You're going a bit fast for me.
Relax, don't be scared.
I just want to be here with you, close.
Are you going to get me horny for nothing?
Didn't you like me so much?
Yes, but it's...
Then come.
Don't be so scared.
You turn me on so much, silly.
Have you seen the Chinese girl or what?
- She's back there, man.
- Go, go.
It's okay.
Chinese girl, are you okay?
Moor, this isn't about you. Go. Out.
I'm talking to her. Are you okay or what?
Do you like me or not?
Yes. You heard her? Come on, go.
Insult me in Spanish, faggot.
You know I could be with anyone?
And I'm here with you. They're not as uptight as you.
Spanish girls suck it.
Fucking hell!
Come on, guys. The party's over.
- Let's go.
- Come on, let's go guys.
Come on, bro, let's go.
Come on, dude.
Always the same with the fucking party.
El Escape has escaped.
Here I'm going to paint myself like a cat.
- Can I play?
- No.
Hey, Xiang.
I don't know what Lucia sees in you when you're rude and treat her badly.
We've known each other since we were in the class
of the dinosaurs. When we were both one year old.
Leave me alone.
See how rude you are?
What I wanted to say. If you want to play jump rope
with us at recess, you can.
Xiang...
I made this. Let's see what you think.
It's very nice.
Really?
Yes.
Lucia!
We can also do a presentation on the computer.
I don't know how to do that.
You can come to my house for a snack.
And my mom can help us.
I haven't seen you at swimming anymore.
It's just that I don't like it.
Well, just so you know, your swimsuit was really pretty.
Good morning, guys. Come on, everyone to your seats.
Let's see.
Start taking out your Spanish books, please.
But your ass is divine.
I love it when you handcuff me.
Put the cuffs on me, I'm your hostage.
What are we doing this weekend?
Girls? Shut up, cunt.
- So annoying.
- She's bitter.
The guys are going to party but they're not inviting us.
Clau, I think it's your fault, honey.
Jeni, listen to what this idiot is saying.
The truth. You didn't do it with El Escape.
And they say we're just brats and they don't want to hang out with kids.
We're not doing anything this weekend.
You're the most virgin of the group. Clau, wake up.
I think they're going with the Orcasitas girls to play El Muelle.
Will you guys tell me what El Muelle is?
Do you want me to tell you?
Fuck this.
Look, the guys are wasted.
And whoever cums first loses.
I've been told El Escape lasts the longest.
I don't understand shit.
Look, the Orcasitas girls dance on them a little
until they get hard. You know what that is?
Of course. Rock.
So, with a boner, they pull down their pants and sit down.
Right, and we change boys every 30 seconds, like Parcheesi.
From goose to goose, and I roll because it's my turn.
But, careful, they can't touch you, not even a damn bit.
You're the one in control.
You decide when you go up, when you go down, and whoever cums first loses.
And what do they lose? You guys don't play that, do you?
No way, girl, not even a chance, how disgusting.
Look at this video. This Latina girl is the fucking boss.
I've seen it, it's trending.
What you just showed me is repulsive.
Oh, you're so boring, Cris.
El Muelle is the game of the moment. Wake up.
- Life's eating you up.
- It's eating you up.
Do you know what STDs are?
Eat me, you. Eat me.
I'll eat both of you whenever you want.
- Ooh, Cris...
- So daring.
- Maybe she's the one after all...
- You wish.
Hello.
Hello!
Did you come alone?
Um, no, I came with my sister Claudia.
Should I have come up with her?
No, no.
I'm Sol, Xiang's mother.
Is this Lucia? Yes.
Come in.
Hello! Hi!
Wow, your house is so beautiful.
Thank you. This is the living room. Wow!
The piano. A piano!
Do you play the piano? Yes.
Wow, what pretty photos.
Look, come to my room.
You looked so beautiful at your communion!
I was eating a cream ice cream.
I want to celebrate my birthday here.
With sparklers and...
a super cool cake with everything.
Cool.
I want to go there, but my parents won't let me.
Why? Because it costs money and we have to save and all that.
Here I was with my mom on the coast.
Your mom is so pretty.
Mine, on the other hand, doesn't wear makeup, doesn't do her hair,
doesn't take care of her skin.
At least she's your real mom.
The Wang boy is wonderful.
He goes out with Rou every Saturday.
I'm also not sure if Wang and Rou make such a good couple.
Don't say that, it was your idea for them to meet.
As good as my granddaughter is,
she's sure to meet someone better.
We're in no rush.
I think that...
Wang is not the right one for Rou.
I spoke with the Hao family.
They say his work efficiency is not very good.
Let's not rush, calmly.
She'll surely find a better one.
Don't tell Feng.
I think Rou likes Wang.
I see her so happy.
Hello, friend!
Mom, I'll leave you, there are customers.
Do you have the gums... Hey! Do you have the lemon gums?
- Bye.
- You know which ones?
Wow, so cool! How much is this one?
I want it for me. Leave it.
- Girl, girl, let's go.
- Are you deaf?
Wait! Let's go.
Hey, listen!
What are you doing? Don't touch me. Are you stupid?
Pay for the beer. What beer?
Pay or I'll call the police.
What police? You can't even speak Spanish.
Move your things. Thief.
- Don't touch her!
- What the hell is wrong with you?
Let her go! Let her go!
Let go of the things, that's mine.
Thieves. I'm a thief?
You're the one who came to steal our jobs.
Move that thing.
You want the beer?
Well then, take it.
- Here!
- Throw it at her, throw it at her!
Girl, let's go. Run, run.
You wanted the beer, right?
- Come on, come on.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye, I'm taking the ring.
- Go on, cry a little. Cry.
What an idiot.
What a fucking moron.
She deserved it a little.
Let's see, we make it bigger...
A little smaller.
Lucia...
What's your last name? Li.
Not "Lusia", Lucia.
Well then, let's prepare the snack.
Oops, careful!
I'm sorry.
Lucia, do you like chocolate spread sandwiches?
Yes.
Claudia, I don't get it.
If you haven't met up with your friends, why didn't you give me the afternoon off?
Because of my parents.
If we don't go out, they'll think something happened.
I can't stand interrogations.
I think that...
you owe me a favor.
Will you help me buy clothes?
Dude, finally.
Do you know the kind of outfits you normally wear?
Let's go for brands. All brands.
I saw some super cool sneakers.
But isn't that expensive?
You'll spend all your money, but I'm telling you it's worth it.
Grab the things, man. The bag, you're spaced out.
Let's go!
Fuck, you're so annoying. Go get a room.
Jeni, are you coming?
Yeah, I'm coming.
Okay, I'll see you then.
I think she still doesn't know.
Hey, girl. Just ignore her. Why?
Tell your sister to get lost and I'll tell you.
Come on, kiddo.
What's up? Didn't you hear what she did?
What? She went with the guys to El Muelle.
Look what El Escape posted.
With the gang.
The slut.
My whole life with her, for this shit.
The worst part is I'm not surprised.
Let's go, come on. Let's go to class, girl.
Leave her alone, it's her loss.
Girl, come on.
Hmm.
How pretty.
What did I tell you about this?
But Mrs. Hao, it's just a plant.
Well, you're wrong, Wang.
It's not just a plant.
It's an insult to my authority.
Grab your things and leave immediately.
But Mrs. Hao,
give me another chance.
Tomorrow morning, go to HR.
Are you okay?
The boss is so angry today!
So scary!
She was really angry today...
Next time it will be us, right?
It's possible.
Better to work.
Well, girl, I'll text you later.
- Bye.
- Goodbye.
Beautiful.
Rou, come down and help your father in the shop!
I can't, I'm meeting Wang!
I ran out of milk again.
1.70.
Where's Lucia?
At home.
Shui!
Um... this is the...
The doll Lucia asked for from the Three Wise Men.
I saw it and I thought...
It's a silly thing. I'll take it to her and that's it.
Okay?
Mmm, no, Lucia doesn't work well.
No present. Take it away.
Shui... No.
It will make her so happy and all her classmates...
No. Your change. Take your things.
And all the classmates from her class will have one,
and in reality
the only thing you'd have to do, Shui...
No, no.
No, take this.
You leave it out at night. Take it away!
And that's it. Really, thank you very much.
Take it away!
What's wrong?
She forgot her change!
Amaya! Your change!
Girl, for real?
After the other day? Are you kidding me?
I just don't want to be alone.
Oh, what's this?
I really don't understand you.
So you want a good party?
Yeah?
Let's go downstairs where the good stuff is.
Come on, kid! That joint there.
Come on, my guys! What a party!
How I like you.
Hey, give me that, kid.
Easy, princess. Go up there, my girl.
Don't die on me, huh.
That's all I need now.
If we don't turn down the music, the cops will come.
Let them come, let's see if they catch me.
My bike's ready, what do you think?
What are you saying, dude? See you now, kid.
Come over here.
Fucking hell, man.
What's wrong with you?
You see the places I bring you to?
Look at these two getting into it.
Go, Lucia!
Are we going back to the party? No, come.
We'll have our own party.
Come over here. Alone is better, right?
Look at this spot. How cool. Here.
To eat you up, my queen.
What are you doing?
What, are you here or what?
Are you going to leave me horny again?
That's why you come looking for me all night? Huh?
Come on, Clau.
Silly.
Come here, come on.
Here, Claudita, here.
Don't you want to be like the other girls?
Come on.
Come on! Suck it!
Come on!
What are you looking at, bro!
Fucking Chinese girl, man!
If you wanted a virgin, you should've gotten a Moorish girl!
Shut your fucking mouth!
Why does it have to be like this?
Why?
Hello, Lucia.
- Hello, Lucia.
- Hello.
Good afternoon, Shui.
Okay, let's see...
As you may know, this is an atypical parent-teacher meeting.
Hmm?
We usually do it with the parents, never with the student,
but since your Spanish level isn't perfect...
Well... maybe you don't...
understand everything.
I'm afraid we have to do it with Lucia so that if you don't understand,
she can translate for you.
I want you to know that...
Lucia is a very hard-working girl.
Mmm... slower.
Just slower.
I was telling you that Lucia behaves very well in class.
Very good in math.
Spanish. No, not louder.
Slower.
What if Lucia translates for you?
I want to understand.
Let's move the camera, I can barely see you.
We can listen first, you don't have to talk.
They said they had a bad connection, be patient.
It's connecting now.
Don't worry.
I'm sorry. Are you Xiang?
You're so tall already!
You're so beautiful.
You look a lot like your sister.
What if we write it down? I think you'll understand better.
My mom can't read Spanish.
Right, if I had to learn Chinese...
Well, there you go.
Well, it's been a pleasure. Nice meeting you.
Why do you have my photo?
Shut up.
Who is it?
Oh, it's Xiang.
A classmate of Lucia's.
She... this photo... um.
Hidden.
Steal.
Steal photo.
Steal? No. Her classmate must have given it to her. Right, Lucia?
Did Xiang give it to you?
She, hidden, the photo.
Did she give it to you?
Did Xiang give it to you?
Wait.
No...
I am not human, I am not a person.
The decision to abandon you
is the stupidest idea I've had in my life.
I am your mom.
I am not a good mother.
Your grandmother took you from me by force.
I had no other choice, I had no other choice.
We had no other options, Xiang.
Your grandmother also passed away.
They, banging on the door...
They want to take you, they want to take you from me.
You were still breastfeeding.
You'd already been with me for over a month.
Separated from your mom, you couldn't sleep.1501
Nine years.
Nine years have passed, daughter.
Every day I've been living this difficult life, Xiang.
I had no other choice.
Can you forgive me? Will you forgive me?
Will you forgive me?
That's enough.
I'm so sorry, Xiang.
I'm so sorry.
Poor thing.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Are you okay, my love?
Let's go!
This is what you get for stealing.
Stand up!
Quickly!
Is this the house?
Yes or no? I don't know.
How can you not know?
Stay still, don't go.
Stay still!
Hello, Lucia.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Hello. I'm Lucia's mother.
- Mom...
- I'm Sol, Xiang's mother.
Stay still, stop pulling!
Let's go!
You didn't tell me you had invited Lucia for a snack.
I didn't invite her.
Come in.
Mom, don't show her the photo!
You can't take other people's things.
My daughter stole the photo.
Mom, let's go!
Lucia, it's okay.
Xiang must have given it to you.
That's a lie.
Thief!
Xiang!
Yun!
- Lucia, please!
- Wait for me!
- I'm sorry.
- Why don't you come in? Lucia!
Yun, wait for mom!
It's all your fault!
This is what happens for taking things that aren't yours.
Stay still!
It's your fault!
Geez, Mom!
Wow!
Mom!
Mom!
Mom!
Careful, you'll burn yourself!
Mom, I love you.
Mom, Dad, at what age will I get married?
With one, with two, with three...
Girl, stop it.
In the end, she went with her kind of people.
And that's it. It doesn't matter.
With the losers, that's it.
Eat with your hand.
There was a boat, and inside that boat
there was a Spaniard and an Englishman.
The Englishman falls off the boat
and then he says: "Help me, help me."
Then the Spaniard says: "I have no gel, but I have shampoo."
Ouch!
Stop throwing fries, geez!
There are no more croquettes.
Goodbye.
Here.
Let's go, I have to be back by seven.
Claudia, you didn't meet up with your friends today either.
Well, I met up with you, didn't I?
Claudia, do you need something?
What do I do?
Do I hug you?
I love it. Have you been here before?
No.
Look how pretty, I could eat her up.
Stand there. I'm going to take a photo of you.
Move to the right so you can see the market sign.
Hey, cous, we're in Usera. What do you expect?
- Ready?
- Yes.
Now me.
I can't believe it.
Luci!
Amaya! Here, Noa.
Amaya!
You look so beautiful, I love your suit.
- Hello.
- Hello, sweetie, how are you?
Where have you been? I haven't seen you since Christmas.
Oh, sweetie, I got transferred to another hospital.
How's your mom?
Great!
My sister Claudia is coming around dressed in red.
She signed up for some fan dancing thing and she's going to dance.
Oh, how cool! I'll go see her now.
How exciting! You look gorgeous!
I have to go!
Lucia!
What?
Did the Three Wise Men bring you something?
I can't hear you!
I said, did the Three Wise Men bring you something?
I have to go, can't you see I'm the dragon's tail?
