Hugo 24 (2026) Movie Script
Dale, dale, dale.
Dale, dale, dale.
Cut yourself, cut yourself.
Take.
You know when you're little,
that you play with your toys
as in a kind of universe
that you imagined,
that you control it and, every time you leave,
You can go back to him.
Everything is still in its place,
just like you had it.
One day I arrived home
and everything was in boxes.
My mother said we were moving
to a smaller apartment
because my father
She was no longer going to live with us.
Now she was going to live in another apartment.
I remember that the only thing
that occurred to me to ask at that moment
asking what Dad's new apartment was like,
because he always talked about apartments.
Because he was a real estate agent.
and showed apartments in many areas.
He knew all of Madrid,
from the rooftops of La Latina
with their domes,
to the bollards of Malasaa
and its bars of the Movida.
From Lavapis square and its mix
smelling of curry and hashish smoke
to the Bernabu.
From the asphalt worn down by traffic
from the intersection of Avenida de Amrica
to Goya and Carabanchel.
From the exposed brick of Tetouan
exposed brick
from the La Elipa bullring, next to the Pirul.
From Gran Va and its lights
to Cibeles and the Literary Quarter,
From Chueca to Madrid Ro.
From kilometer zero in Sol
to the outlying neighborhoods
attached to the M-30,
where you can still find old cars,
that don't have an ECO sticker and they get caught
fines if they enter Madrid Central,
those that open easily
and the alarm doesn't sound.
Let's go!
Dale, dale, dale!
- Do you know how to do it or not?
- Be quiet, I can't concentrate.
If Jose the Madman catches us,
He's going to kill us.
That bastard isn't going to catch anyone, okay?
- This is going to cause us problems.
- He's the one with the problems, Manu.
It's ten minutes.
We took the car to a park
and we burned it.
Couldn't we slash his tire? No.
Add sugar to the tank?
We should steal this crazy guy's car.
- Sugar in the tank?
- The engine seizes up.
It dissolves in gasoline,
It passes through the cylinders, the pistons,
The caramelizes it, go to hell.
No way.
Well, I don't give a damn.
I'm going to burn it, brother.
You can leave if you want.
He hit my sister, damn it.
Well, we'll have to go.
Let's get a can of gasoline then.
- I just don't understand this
- Dale, dale.
"Silver Love, the compilation album",
What a tacky thing to do.
This is for money.
Come on, damn it!
Come on, give it, give it, give it!
I'm here, I'm here.
- I'm here.
- Be quiet!
Hugo!
Come on, come on!
Hugo, Hugo, Hugo!
What are you doing here? But
Hugo, I shit on your!
Hugo!
Hugo, if I catch you I'll kill you.
Can you hear me?
You fucking little shit!
Look at the camera.
Left.
Look again, please.
Hello,
I've come to find Hugo Fernndez.
I am his sister.
Where is?
- Good morning, Cristina.
- Hello.
Sorry for the late hour,
But if not, I won't let you in at home.
- Do you know why I'm here?
- Yeah.
You're late again.
Yes, we've had an unexpected event.
and I can't pay you for the whole month.
You turn me on
in a very complicated situation.
- I know, and I'm very sorry.
- I'm the one who feels it.
I won't be able to leave
that you stay here.
I'm just asking for a couple of weeks
to catch up.
- I don't care, Cristina.
- I always keep my word, you know that.
- I've been here for years.
- It's the same.
We have nowhere to go, Miguel.
Don't make me beg you, I
You know I have a job,
I'm going to pay you.
- It's just a matter of time, really.
- You owe me two months.
This one and the one in May.
And you're not going to play with my money.
Neither you nor anyone else.
What should we play, Miguel?
I'm staying on the fucking street.
You've raised it to a thousand euros
And I haven't told you anything.
Nobody forced you,
If you couldn't pay, you should have left.
On top of that, I let you have it without a deposit.
and paying in cash.
I was paying half
a few months ago,
and I'm still getting paid the same.
I'm tired of you,
of your excuses,
of following
every fucking month.
What excuses?
I have a job, I'm going to pay you.
- You said the same thing last month.
- I know.
I will ask for an advance for this month.
Next month I'll get started on
- No!
Tomorrow.
- And I want it all.
- Tomorrow?
Yes, tomorrow.
Either you pay me or I'll kick you out.
- Did you hear?
- Yeah.
Well, see you tomorrow.
You, hello.
Come out, we need to talk.
You heard him, didn't you?
Hey, I'm sorry.
Who would have known there would be
A fucking patrol car there?
Who would have known
You have to stop, Hugo.
Know
How much did the bail cost?
Think before you do things.
You're not a child anymore.
You can't go out every night,
and sleep all day.
Can you hear me?
I just wanted to mess with Jose's car
because of what he did to you.
Are you okay?
Does it hurt?
- Yes, I'm fine.
He'll never see me again.
Let's see if it's true.
- Damn.
- That?
With the fighting and the shouting, I let myself go
the purchase in the trunk of Jos.
Well, it's okay.
Yes, because everything was there
for your cake.
Tomorrow is your birthday,
You know that, right?
- Is it like Mom's?
- Yeah.
I don't want cake.
It reminds me of before.
Inside nothing
We have her here smoking
and complaining about everything,
that nobody helps her.
Smoking like you, right?
- You are the same.
- Yes, sure.
Hugo!
Cris!
Do I live alone or what? Is no one going to help me?
And then: "Don't touch,
"Don't touch me, I can do it myself."
There's a very big problem, Hugo.
We're getting fired tomorrow, I have no money.
There's no one left to ask.
We pooled the money.
And don't look at me like that, I'm going to change.
I'm looking for a job.
I have an interview today.
And I think I'm going to do well.
Do you know what else I have?
300 pavazos.
- Didn't they owe you a week's rent from the bazaar?
- No.
Three days.
Now I'm going to talk to Joan,
But we didn't end up on very good terms.
You're absent whenever you feel like it.
Were you expecting a prize?
You wouldn't believe how hard the Chinese work.
Besides, I was only absent for a couple of days.
If the problem is going to be the Chinese
who work hard,
Not you, you're a piece of work.
I'm telling you, they're not paying me for it.
- Okay, go over and ask him, alright?
- OK.
And be polite: "Please, thank you."
- "Sorry".
- Yes, damn it, yes.
Excuse me, can I steal from you?
Just a minute? It won't be longer.
It's an interview
for a local channel in Madrid
regarding the cost of housing,
rent, job opportunities.
I'm the only one who works at my house.
and four of us live there.
Well, at first I felt better,
Now I'm getting worse.
I'm finding it difficult, I'm finding it difficult.
Between 1300 and 1500.
My salary doesn't compensate me.
the rent.
It's practically all invested
60% of the salary.
Yes, you can't save money.
we spent everything
in expenses, school
700, 800 is the cheapest.
I earn between 1200 and 1300.
Don't mess around.
Joan.
No.
No no.
What the hell, I was only absent for two days.
But you'll have to pay me.
Joan.
Joan.
You bastard. He hung up on me.
Okay. We have a thousand, with what you've given me.
This morning, 1300.
How much do they owe you?
I've already told you not to count on that.
Now I'm going to talk to him
Okay, so we're 700 short.
Hand! What's up, you?
Quiet,
that nothing will be lacking tonight.
It's Huguito's birthday,
come to the bar,
You ask me in short, don't be so bold,
But we have it.
Big hug,
See you tonight, brother.
But what does Cris say?
- Come on, we're all here.
- You look beautiful today.
I've told you a thousand times,
Okay, you come.
and another thing that this is
a soup kitchen.
- But what difference does it make to you, little girl?
- You've got some nerve.
This is fucking great tonight.
There at the hotel
Five stars for that bricklayers' place.
I already told you, brother.
that this was going to bring us
Problems
- That's it, let's have breakfast, come on.
- Venga, life.
- Idiot.
The price of rent
the housing continues to skyrocket,
especially in capital cities
like Madrid and Barcelona
Cris, two coffees for table three,
pasture
Look: "We regret to inform you
that on this occasion
has not been selected
for the vacancy in our office."
"Human Resources".
I'm so fucking pissed off!
They're bastards, that's what they are.
I need a job, man.
- I have to ask you a favor.
- Sure, what else do you need?
Some pasta.
- 200, 300.
- 200, 300 bucks?
- I don't have a penny, you bastard.
- Like if I ask your parents.
I'm not exaggerating, it's a matter of life or death.
My parents don't even have enough for me.
What's happening?
They take us out of the apartment
if we don't pay tomorrow.
I wish I could help you.
Thank you so much.
Hugo!
- 500, it won't get me ahead any further.
- No way, it's really good, isn't it?
Uh, no.
- Lend me ten euros, I need them.
Nothing comes out of this envelope.
Can you hear me? Get what's missing.
And you bring it to me.
- I'll pay you today, I'm free this afternoon.
Didn't you give us until tomorrow?
But if I can pay you today, all the better.
That's how we shut him up.
- Okay, 200 are needed, right?
- Yeah.
I'll get them for you, I swear.
In less time than it takes a rooster to crow,
I will buy a castle for the three of us,
a castle
and a house in the
playa.
I'll exchange it for you whenever you want.
Take.
So what are you going to do?
I have a business idea.
Give me ten bucks.
What business idea?
I don't have a penny, I told you.
Not even ten euros?
- Not even ten euros.
- Year.
Not even ten euros, man, what a rip-off.
Ten bucks? I'll get them for you.
As?
I'm going to teach you a technique,
You're going to be blown away.
Stop here.
The napkin from your sister's place,
I make a very nice compact ball.
Pretend to buy something.
Now the people who put here
The coin, where does the change go?
- To the compact ball.
- That.
What an engineer.
Now we wait.
- What a shitty idea.
- Listen to me.
There you have the first fool.
Did you see?
This is made in Malaga, mate.
- Made in Malaga?
Sure.
Malaga, Andalusia, summer.
Since you're not going anywhere,
It sounds like Chinese to you.
What do you mean, no?
I've left a lot of times, but when I was little.
Where?
In Versailles.
That's in France, isn't it?
He looks gorgeous.
When were your parents together?
Family vacation,
I really want to go back.
I imagine Versailles is beautiful.
- The shitty thing is, they speak French.
- And?
In Spanish you understand each other, it's almost the same.
I haven't seen your father in a long time.
- I've run into him before.
- Don't you want to reconnect?
He's not here and he's not expected.
And your mother?
Working in Versailles.
My cousin goes to the gym with Nacho Blanco,
the one from the institute.
He says your sister told him
that your mother was caught
with a suitcase full of paw prints
and I don't know what.
He's an idiot, that's a lie.
My mother works in Versailles,
He left when he left him with my dad.
People talk a lot.
And what does he do for a living?
From a gardener.
And he loves it.
Plants have their own charm.
The indoor ones
If you take them out, they die.
If you water them too much, they die.
If you don't water them, too.
They have their trick.
He says he's like people.
I would be a cactus,
You're not getting rid of me, not a chance.
Come on, let's go.
You've missed one there.
Don't help, okay?
- How much did you need?
- How much is there?
Here are three,
six,
eight turkeys.
That's fine by us, fucking great.
Now Joan.
If I had the money, I'd sign up for this one.
and he was starting martial arts.
- You know what would be cool? Taekwondo.
- Taekwondo?
- I'll put it in Jos like this.
- Come in.
- And a little bit of a party tonight?
- We'll see.
What do you mean, "we'll see"? It's your birthday,
It's organized, we have free drinks.
My sister says
who wants to join the church now
and that she wants me to accompany her.
- Tell him we're hungover on Sundays.
- That's what I told him.
But he says there's Mass
Saturday afternoons.
- We drink on Saturdays.
- I've told him too.
My father, when he lived with us,
I went to the tobacconist every Sunday
go buy tobacco and play the Euromillions.
He said that one had to have faith.
My sister Cris says what a...
We have bad luck in this family.
I guess it'll be your turn
a father who leaves home
and doesn't want to know anything
It's bad luck and a real bummer.
Although in truth,
Thinking about it, if he didn't love us,
It's lucky that he left.
The shitty thing is that he didn't leave sooner.
because that way I wouldn't have any memories of him.
Yes, he
No, no, no
One of these horses
I'd get myself a GS.
She's pretty, isn't she?
- What's wrong, Ana?
- Hello, Hugo.
Hello good.
Pay attention to my business idea.
I was in Cuatro Caminos,
where the flower shop is.
- What's happening?
- Okay, I did all of Bravo Murillo,
up to the Plaza Castilla courts.
- A little patio.
- A kick.
I saw that there are a lot of places.
Small, small.
In other words, there are kebabs,
Colombian restaurants,
Bolivian restaurants,
Peruvians, Arabs,
Chinese and Indian supermarkets.
- Florists, lawyers.
- What's happening?
They all have in common
that have crystals.
Crystals?
Windows that need cleaning.
For ten bucks we'll let you
the gleaming crystals.
- I understand, I understand.
- If we make 20, that's 200 bucks.
200 turkeys
That's one hundred bucks each.
- Exactly.
- Well, I'll give you my share.
First, we need to get
the 20 locations.
Damn, Huguito has some great ideas.
Come on, come on.
Vale, pllate
Cristasol,
whatever shit we need.
I'm going to see Joan.
- I'll take a bucket, right?
- Yeah.
Cube.
A cube.
This is a classic, little cloth.
Here, take it.
Don't give up, she said.
Have you paid? Let's go.
- See you later, Ana.
- Chao.
Chao.
- What are you singing?
- That?
- What are you singing?
- You're welcome.
What are you humming, you idiot?
- It was playing in Chinese, wasn't it?
- What a blow.
He says yes.
- Wax on, wax off.
- Jackie Chan from the Tetun neighborhood.
Have you seen us?
I don't know, but let's go.
- And the pasta?
- Fuck him.
Hey, what about the cookie you were going to give him?
I'm not going to hit him
In front of everyone, right?
Wow! Look how beautiful she is.
Like yours, but in gold.
This has to cost money.
- Gorgeous.
- I'm going to talk to this one.
- Top, no?
- It's fucking great.
Thank you very much, see you later.
Yes?
One more, one more, one more.
That's great, brother.
You're crazy out there in the sun.
When I grow up, I want this.
But in my Malaga,
that the sun hits differently.
What are you laughing at, you idiot?
I found the "older" part funny.
As if you were a child.
Well, in old age, without worries,
like retirees.
- Because they receive their pension.
- So, retired, right?
For that, we need to work beforehand.
champion.
That's also true.
- How strong is the sun in Malaga?
- Different.
And a plan?
It sticks better than here,
With the breeze you don't even notice,
You end up looking like a lobster.
You go out at night
and you don't get a single cent.
Because of the sun, of course, of course.
Are you stupid, or what?
I'm fed up already.
- There's not much time left.
- Three or four and we'll have 200, right?
We'll have plenty.
Where will that be?
The fact that?
Punta Cana, right?
Did anyone swim from Malaga?
- I think so.
- No way
I don't think so.
Okay, go on, get the little bottle out.
Which little bottle?
I saw you, get the bottle out.
Yes, yes.
And right on point.
- Cheers, brother.
- Health.
Thank you so much,
You saved my life.
200 turkeys in one morning,
What if we did this every day?
Daily?
- My back hurts from bending over.
- Exaggerated.
I swear.
Look what I have.
That?
What a bastard!
Gorgeous.
She looks beautiful.
Very.
Shut up.
Happy birthday, Huguito.
- For me?
- I love you, you bastard.
You deserve it.
Let's see how it looks on me.
- AND?
- She looks beautiful.
- Yes or no?
- It looks fucking great on you.
Hey, I lied to you.
With what?
With what happened to my mother and all.
I'm the one who asks too many questions.
- Don't worry.
The thing is
Yes, she is in prison.
For drug trafficking.
- But it'll be out in two years.
- Well, he doesn't have much time left then.
That's why I need a job, man.
so that I can get money.
I need to save
for an apartment for the three of us.
If you save up, you can stick around
a summer in Versailles.
- Idiot.
- Don't you want more empanada?
No, you eat it, I'm going to eat with Alba.
Which Alba?
Alba, from Fabrik, don't you remember?
Do you think I'm your secretary?
Should I write down the powder for you?
- I'll make the appointment for you now.
- If you're interested, the position is vacant.
That way you won't forget to write.
Give me your sister's number.
He calls me every night
and I never know who it is.
Your mother does it perfectly,
He always sends me a little message.
Just like yours,
He calls me every month for a face-to-face meeting.
- It never fails.
- You went too far there, didn't you?
Just kidding, mate.
- You've gone too far, you bastard.
- I'm just kidding.
A face-to-face meeting, dude?
Are you going to get angry? Just kidding.
Give me some ice cubes, boss, please.
And while you're at it, charge me.
There it is.
Perfect, thank you.
What are you doing?
- How much is there?
- Shit.
Card, metro pass.
Ten turkeys.
- Which is basically nothing.
- That's karma.
That would be if something bad had happened.
- Has something bad happened?
- Don't lump me in with you.
And you should stop stealing from people.
Mary Magdalene.
- Do you believe in miracles?
- Me? No way.
Are you or what?
Excuse me, can I ask you a few questions?
Sure.
- What is it for?
The cost of housing,
rent, work
You put them here,
Edu, come this way.
With Bravo Murillo in the background
It will look good.
They are very simple questions.
Shall we begin?
First, how old are you?
- 26 years old.
- 24.
It has almost no windows.
Because it used to be a movie theater,
and now a slot machine parlor.
I'll show you what a summer is like.
in Versailles without leaving the neighborhood.
What's wrong, Maria?
And now we go straight up to six.
- Damn!
- TRUE?
Yes, it does have good views.
He's handsome, isn't he?
I'm not going to the interview.
What do you mean, no?
You're always dealing with the real estate agency,
que si Tecnocasa
Listen to me,
You're going to do great.
Do you think I'm ready for that?
Ready for what?
To open the door and show an apartment?
Here we have an American kitchen
fully furnished.
We have two bathrooms,
street light,
40 square meters, a thousand turkeys.
They snatch it right out of your hands.
I don't know,
The group has education and speaks languages.
It's a piece of paper that puts things on it.
Don't you know how to say it in English?
Here's the kitchen,
Here's the toilet, balconing?
Classic.
That job must be great.
Picture yourself looking sharp in your suit.
It's silly, but it makes me happy.
- My father was a salesman too.
- Not anymore?
I don't know.
I imagine so.
He would arrive home at night,
He unbuttoned his tie,
He winked at me.
What times, man.
You never know when it will be
the last time you see something.
You have to be there.
The only thing that was left
The bastard was his suit.
Okay, give it to me.
What will be more important,
The interview or the resume?
Let's do one thing,
Take the chair and put it there.
Listen to me.
This space is the office.
Let's simulate the interview.
- You're already late.
Okay, let's go.
- Aren't you going to knock or what?
- OK.
Forward.
Good afternoon.
What is her name, how old is she?
No way, he'll know.
He has his resume in front of him.
Who's doing the interview, you or me?
Trust me, these people are going to get caught.
Tell me your full name
and age.
My name is Hugo Fernndez Vera,
I am 23, almost 24 years old.
It's not going to be for 22, you idiot.
Focus, kid.
Why do you think you deserve this job?
I don't know.
Don't you know? Tell him/her good things.
You have a lot of good things.
What makes you different?
Well, look here, sir,
I'm going to tell you two things.
I think I'm good enough for this job
Just because.
- Because yes, damn it!
That's the general idea.
That?
What do you think?
Everything?
Everything.
I told you, trust me.
They're a little wrinkled,
But I think that's everything.
- I'm going to see Mom later.
- OK.
- I'm leaving, like with Alba.
- No, no, no.
Come by the house and pay for it.
Take.
Don't mess with me, Cris.
I'm having lunch with his parents.
I don't even know them.
- Weren't you supposed to have the day off today?
- Inma has fallen ill.
The boss asked me to do it.
I'm not going to say no to him,
He's done me a huge favor.
- Like with Alba and I go over.
- But right after.
- Right after.
- Please.
Yes, damn it.
Hugo.
That?
I love you.
You more.
Me right now
I don't even have a salary.
I invest about 60-70% of my salary
approximately in housing.
Then we went to an apartment
which was already worth 800 euros,
and from there up to 1100,
which is still the case.
All the money is gone.
Because of the previous apartment,
Now the salary doesn't arrive anymore.
My mother has helped me
with his pension, fortunately.
Like 1100
the rent of the house plus the electricity.
It's really hard for me, I'm self-employed.
Well over 50% of my salary.
Do you live with your parents or share?
apartment with five strangers.
Very difficult, very difficult.
It's really complicated, to be honest.
As a child, I used to pray asking for
that my father would come home,
But it never happened.
I had imagined it a thousand times
what his new family would be like.
Above all, I imagined his life,
It must have been incredible.
They would be rich and live in another country,
seeing them here and now.
I don't know, happy.
I wish there was a really good reason.
for the one who said: "Ah, sure, normal."
- Hello good.
- Hello.
I thought you were going to look super handsome.
Yeah, I just haven't had time.
I said you were a colleague.
That's what we are, right?
Come on in.
- Hey, doesn't your grandma eat with us?
- No, she has her own schedule.
Mom, what are you doing now?
Did your parents too?
Do they drive you crazy, Hugo?
Sometimes.
I look a lot like my mother,
With her, even less so.
But my father and I did clash.
- Everything is delicious.
- Thank you.
- I've helped too.
- Alba, don't lie, you haven't done anything.
And tell us, Hugo.
Mom, we know each other.
With the interrogations, huh?
- I told them to leave you alone.
- I'm calm.
Because they start and they don't stop.
Besides, I told you he's a colleague,
It's his birthday,
that he had no plan,
That's why I invited him to lunch.
- That's it, just be nice, end of story.
- No problem.
And what are you studying, Hugo?
Nothing now, I haven't studied for a few years.
- Oh, you work?
- I'm looking.
I actually have an interview today.
- Look, that's how you'll be next year.
- Yes, dad, yes.
- One year
- Yes, Dad.
- You have one year left as a student.
- Don't remind me.
- I think you're going to Salamanca
- Mom, please.
and I feel like crying.
I feel like crying.
- Thank you for my part in it.
- You're my favorite, daughter.
Don't try to fix it now.
Are you going to Salamanca?
If I told you I was
in the last year of uni.
- I thought it was here in Madrid.
- No, in Salamanca.
Send a message to Avelino.
I don't like WhatsApp.
Call him on the phone.
We called him later.
Leave it there. Well, yeah, wherever.
- I'm going to leave now.
- Yeah?
- Don't you want a coffee?
- No.
- I need to prepare for the interview.
- OK.
- Oh no, how embarrassing.
- The fact that?
My parents drink a glass of wine
And they start to dance. Look, come here.
Can one miss it?
Something you haven't experienced?
- Are you sure nobody can see us here?
- Yes, don't worry, nobody ever goes up there.
Go ahead, sit down.
To.
That?
What's happening?
I don't know if this makes much sense.
If we're going to stop seeing each other,
It's best to stop it now.
Why would we stop seeing each other?
- I'm going to come back many weekends.
- Yes.
You won't say the same
When you're with your new friends,
your classes, the residence, I don't know what.
You'll see.
But, Hugo,
We are getting to know each other.
Why so much pressure?
Furthermore, we are not on different pages.
I study, you look for a job.
But before you know it,
I don't know...
Are you having a good time with me?
Of course.
Me too.
I like you and
And?
I like you, period.
I like your eyes.
I was thinking about it, downstairs at home.
Yeah, liar.
My eyes are just that.
- No, just like that, no.
- Browns.
Coca-Cola color.
Of
So, at different points.
I have said in pages.
There's nobody there.
Can?
There I am.
Fuck!
Fuck!
What does my colleague say?
- My motorcycle has been stolen, man.
- What are you saying?
I'm so fucking pissed off!
Here at Alba's house.
They've taken her away.
Ask at Carlos's workshop.
who finds out about everything.
Now I'll see what I can do.
Hugo Fernndez.
Customer service, salesperson
Good afternoon, Hugo.
- Good afternoon.
- Pablo.
- A place.
- Okay, tell me a little bit about yourself.
Well, I think
that I am very suitable for the job.
I have done several
Yes, I see that you have
several customer-facing jobs.
And this needs that,
getting along, having empathy, being articulate.
That's great!
because you have teamwork,
Customer service, English level A2.
Well, department stores,
The seller is great.
- Sorry.
- Dime.
I don't want to lie to him.
Many of the things it puts there
You haven't done it.
But I think I'm good enough for this.
Why do you think you're good at this, Hugo?
Well, maybe because
I know what it's like to have a home.
And I know what it's like to lose it.
Look, I'm sure that
any of those candidates
He has more experience than I do.
But I'm very good at reading people.
Because I've been there
And I want to do things right.
Wanting to do things right
It's not always worth it.
It will take no more than 24-48 hours
in giving you an answer,
whether positive or negative.
Carlos!
Carlos!
Carlos!
- Can you call Carlos for me, please?
- Child!
- What are you saying, Hugo?
- What's up, man?
- How are you?
- Good and you?
Very well, where are you going looking so handsome?
Are you here for a wedding or what?
I'm not in the mood for parties.
What happened to you?
Has your motorcycle seized up again?
- That motorcycle is a piece of junk.
- No way, no way, no way.
Worse, it's been stolen from me
- You're kidding me.
- You wouldn't know anything, would you?
What would I know?
They can't sell that motorcycle, can they?
What are they going to sell, bro? It's worthless.
Only the tube is worth it.
that I put on last time.
Damn, you really don't know anything?
I have no fucking idea.
Okay, okay, are you sure you don't know anything?
Are you coming to my work?
Are you going to call me a thief or what?
No, no, not you, but I mean,
one of your colleagues or something.
My colleagues know nothing,
You're touching my dick.
- Give me a hand.
- My kids don't know anything, bro.
Why are you coming to my workplace?
Sorry, man.
- Damn, dude.
- I don't know what to do, I'm desperate.
Grab a beer, go.
I'm going to ask
Let's see if anyone knows anything.
Huguito, the kid, has arrived
from my neighborhood, this pipe.
He says that if we know anything
They flipped his motorcycle over.
A silver Yamaha NEO's,
You remember, right?
Yeah.
If you find out anything, let me know, okay? Come on.
Huguito.
- He hasn't got a fucking clue, man.
- Nothing, right?
I told them that if they find out,
Let them tell me.
OK.
I'll tell you whatever it is.
Thank you, and sorry.
Forgive me, I've lost my mind.
Okay, bye.
Come on.
My mother was almost never home.
And when I was there,
He slept all day in his room.
Sometimes he would leave at night
and didn't return for several days.
I remember those times
in which I was fine,
walking down the street hand in hand
to accompany her to the pharmacy.
They gave him methadone pills.
I took them
with a small plastic cup
and the pharmacist had to check
that had swallowed them
making her raise her tongue.
My mother laughed,
looking at me as if it were a game.
At home,
when I wondered
if I had brushed my teeth,
I did the same thing.
She opened her mouth and raised her tongue,
I laughed, imitating her.
Thank you.
- My love.
- How are you, Mom?
Very well, now that you're here.
You look so handsome, so elegant.
- Did you see?
- Your father's suit, right?
I thought you weren't coming.
I promised you.
Yes.
How's it going?
Very good.
I am studying.
Yes, the gardening thing?
Yes, that's what the workshops are.
but I've gotten involved
to get my diploma.
No way.
- Yes, yes.
- Excellent.
By the time I get out of here, you know?
- They ask for it everywhere.
- Yes.
Are you okay, Hugo?
Yeah.
- We're doing quite well.
- I'm so glad.
- And look how I go to work, damn it.
- So?
Yeah.
Don't cry.
Two years go by in no time, not at all.
Your fucking mother!
Stay there and don't run away.
I don't want to chase you.
Because I swear I'll kill you.
You're going to pay me for the bowler hat,
You've messed it up by forcing it.
Can you hear me, clown?
- Your b is going to pay for it
- As?
Leave my sister alone.
Where are you going?
Shit.
You fucking brat!
Does it hurt?
You need to go to the hospital.
I'm leaving in two hours.
But you must go through that gap,
They'll have you there.
that put sure points.
No way!
Thank goodness your mom didn't see you like that.
Hugo,
I wanted to tell you that I know
that you love your mom very much.
I love her too, you know that, but
I don't want you to get your hopes up.
with the whole living together thing.
What
I hope so, but
Mom is sick.
It's okay now, it's clean.
He has no other choice in there.
You were very young, don't you remember?
But I've already been through this.
Everything seems to be going well.
And suddenly everything goes wrong again.
Because that's how it is, it's an addiction.
- And she falls and falls.
- I don't give a damn.
I will always be there to lift her up.
I know it, and I'm with you.
Here, change.
Hugo, what I want to tell you is
that I don't want
base your future plans on
that she'll be okay
and that we're going to live together
because we don't know.
We will do our best.
And she does too, I'm sure.
But let's take it one step at a time.
- He only has two years left.
- Yeah, but, damn.
Three lifetimes pass in two years.
Hey, Cris.
I feel like I'm not in control of anything lately.
Everything goes wrong for me.
Everything will be alright.
You'll see.
Have you paid for the apartment, Hugo?
- Have you paid for the apartment?
- It's been stolen, damn it.
God.
What are we going to do now?
Oh, God.
Sorry.
Is your kitchen open?
I wanted some sandwiches to take away.
- Yes, come in.
- Wow, thank you, you saved my life.
- Tell me, what did you want?
- Well, two pork loin and cheese sandwiches.
And for the girl, I don't know,
something with softer bread.
- A mixed one, for example?
- A great mix.
I'm going to the bathroom for a second,
Don't move.
Do you promise me?
Are you going to stay still?
We know each other, right?
Don't be scared, it doesn't hurt.
They asked you for the same thing they asked me for,
We are the same.
Want to try?
Very good.
Don't take anything from strangers.
You're almost there, huh?
Well
I got lost because I was going too fast.
Oh.
Turn and adjust.
Turn and adjust.
- Turn and adjust.
- There you go, you're getting there, huh?
Wow! You're so nice.
No
Yes!
You've already broken it, now what?
When you finish it,
You mess it up and start again.
That's how the game is played.
- I'll pay you by card, okay?
- OK.
Do you like licorice?
Here, this is for you.
Wow, how lucky.
Very good.
- What are they saying?
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Nothing.
Well, that's it.
Come on, Abril, we're going home.
We're leaving, thank you.
- Bye bye.
- Bye bye.
- What's wrong, Manu?
- Has the motorcycle turned up or what?
- No, man.
- I shit on the whore.
Come here and we'll see what we can do.
Don't back out on your birthday, okay?
No, no, not at all, I'm going, I'm going.
I have to tell you,
I'm having the worst day of my fucking life.
Chico.
You can go in, it's free.
Look, all of this is really good.
- Come on, come on.
- No, don't worry.
Thank you.
- How are you, my son?
- Hello good.
What can I do for you?
I wanted to return this.
I ran into him on the street.
Very good, you did very well.
We will look for its owner.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
My God, how has he left you?
This idiot.
- Does it hurt or what?
- Yes, you bastard, get out of here.
I've spoken to my parents.
You and your sister can stay
at my place.
We'll see.
how we organize ourselves.
Are you okay or not?
- Yeah.
- Are you safe?
- Yeah.
I'll call my sister now.
- Listen, Alba is inside.
- What are you talking about?
What should I say to him/her?
Honestly, what are you going to say to him?
- What's up, dude? What happened there?
Nothing.
- Hi, what happened to you?
Nothing.
- As?
- Nothing, nothing.
- But what happened to you?
- Nothing, it's nothing.
What do you mean, nothing? Have you seen yourself?
What happened?
Which is nothing.
- Tell me about it.
- So that?
What do you mean, "what for?"
- You don't know me.
- What are you saying?
I'm not telling you anything about my fucking life
so that you leave
and you say: "Poor fellow from Madrid,
"I feel so sorry for you."
What are you saying?
I don't feel sorry for you, sorry for what?
- Your life is not like mine.
- Hugo, what are you so afraid of?
Hugo, if you don't tell me
I can't guess.
- What happened to you?
- What should I tell you, damn it, what?
What, my mother is a junkie?
She's in jail because she was caught.
with I don't know how much, is that it?
What about my sister?
Didn't she have a childhood because she was taking care of me?
Did her fucking ex-boyfriend do this to me?
And does she hit her too?
That my father abandoned us,
who has another family,
I see him on the damn street
And he doesn't even say hello to me?
I wake up every morning with fear
that my sister will abandon me,
that he gets tired of me like you will.
Listen to me.
Everyone who comes near me
It ends in shit, you too, Manu.
That they don't want me for any job.
I wouldn't hire myself either.
Is that what you wanted me to tell you?
What do you like so much about me, then?
I'm not going anywhere.
It's already 12 o'clock.
It's my birthday.
What a drag getting older is.
It's Huguito's birthday, let's go!
Let's go!
- This one's for you, little brother.
Carlos.
Tell me, I can't hear you, man.
As?
The motorbike?
Damn it Where, in the park?
Okay, how?
Okay, okay, thank you.
I'm so pissed off.
They burned my motorcycle.
So it's 14.50, cash or card?
You son of a bitch, come here! I swear to God.
Sons of bitches.
I can't believe it, man.
I can't believe it,
I can believe it.
- I'm moving.
- I shit on his fucking mother!
I shit on your dead relatives!
Sons of bitches!
Sons of bitches!
Even the pump has burned.
Not even the brakes survived.
Well, time for bed, right?
What a disaster.
- Rest.
- And you.
Quillo.
See you soon, right?
Where my sister's at, right?
When my sister made me dinner,
It was always spaghetti with tomato sauce.
And to find out if it was done,
He took a strand of spaghetti out of the pot.
He held it with two fingers.
burning, puffing,
and he threw it against the wall.
If it stuck, it was ready.
I remember one day I told him
why, being my sister,
She was the one in charge, which wasn't fair.
Cris stood against the door frame
and pressed his forehead against the wood.
With a marker he left
a mark that indicated his height.
He said that when he reached that mark,
I wouldn't have to obey her anymore.
The truth is that that brand
It was deleted a thousand years ago.
and I don't always listen to him.
- What are you doing here?
- We've always been from here.
I'm from Malaga,
But I grew up in this neighborhood.
Very good.
Work-related topic, how are things going?
Regular, but I'm looking now.
There we are, we are in the fight.
Can it be sent to him?
A hug and a kiss for his mother?
And another one for him, since it's his birthday.
Sending hugs, Hugo and Manu
From the neighborhood, for life.
Dale, dale, dale.
Cut yourself, cut yourself.
Take.
You know when you're little,
that you play with your toys
as in a kind of universe
that you imagined,
that you control it and, every time you leave,
You can go back to him.
Everything is still in its place,
just like you had it.
One day I arrived home
and everything was in boxes.
My mother said we were moving
to a smaller apartment
because my father
She was no longer going to live with us.
Now she was going to live in another apartment.
I remember that the only thing
that occurred to me to ask at that moment
asking what Dad's new apartment was like,
because he always talked about apartments.
Because he was a real estate agent.
and showed apartments in many areas.
He knew all of Madrid,
from the rooftops of La Latina
with their domes,
to the bollards of Malasaa
and its bars of the Movida.
From Lavapis square and its mix
smelling of curry and hashish smoke
to the Bernabu.
From the asphalt worn down by traffic
from the intersection of Avenida de Amrica
to Goya and Carabanchel.
From the exposed brick of Tetouan
exposed brick
from the La Elipa bullring, next to the Pirul.
From Gran Va and its lights
to Cibeles and the Literary Quarter,
From Chueca to Madrid Ro.
From kilometer zero in Sol
to the outlying neighborhoods
attached to the M-30,
where you can still find old cars,
that don't have an ECO sticker and they get caught
fines if they enter Madrid Central,
those that open easily
and the alarm doesn't sound.
Let's go!
Dale, dale, dale!
- Do you know how to do it or not?
- Be quiet, I can't concentrate.
If Jose the Madman catches us,
He's going to kill us.
That bastard isn't going to catch anyone, okay?
- This is going to cause us problems.
- He's the one with the problems, Manu.
It's ten minutes.
We took the car to a park
and we burned it.
Couldn't we slash his tire? No.
Add sugar to the tank?
We should steal this crazy guy's car.
- Sugar in the tank?
- The engine seizes up.
It dissolves in gasoline,
It passes through the cylinders, the pistons,
The caramelizes it, go to hell.
No way.
Well, I don't give a damn.
I'm going to burn it, brother.
You can leave if you want.
He hit my sister, damn it.
Well, we'll have to go.
Let's get a can of gasoline then.
- I just don't understand this
- Dale, dale.
"Silver Love, the compilation album",
What a tacky thing to do.
This is for money.
Come on, damn it!
Come on, give it, give it, give it!
I'm here, I'm here.
- I'm here.
- Be quiet!
Hugo!
Come on, come on!
Hugo, Hugo, Hugo!
What are you doing here? But
Hugo, I shit on your!
Hugo!
Hugo, if I catch you I'll kill you.
Can you hear me?
You fucking little shit!
Look at the camera.
Left.
Look again, please.
Hello,
I've come to find Hugo Fernndez.
I am his sister.
Where is?
- Good morning, Cristina.
- Hello.
Sorry for the late hour,
But if not, I won't let you in at home.
- Do you know why I'm here?
- Yeah.
You're late again.
Yes, we've had an unexpected event.
and I can't pay you for the whole month.
You turn me on
in a very complicated situation.
- I know, and I'm very sorry.
- I'm the one who feels it.
I won't be able to leave
that you stay here.
I'm just asking for a couple of weeks
to catch up.
- I don't care, Cristina.
- I always keep my word, you know that.
- I've been here for years.
- It's the same.
We have nowhere to go, Miguel.
Don't make me beg you, I
You know I have a job,
I'm going to pay you.
- It's just a matter of time, really.
- You owe me two months.
This one and the one in May.
And you're not going to play with my money.
Neither you nor anyone else.
What should we play, Miguel?
I'm staying on the fucking street.
You've raised it to a thousand euros
And I haven't told you anything.
Nobody forced you,
If you couldn't pay, you should have left.
On top of that, I let you have it without a deposit.
and paying in cash.
I was paying half
a few months ago,
and I'm still getting paid the same.
I'm tired of you,
of your excuses,
of following
every fucking month.
What excuses?
I have a job, I'm going to pay you.
- You said the same thing last month.
- I know.
I will ask for an advance for this month.
Next month I'll get started on
- No!
Tomorrow.
- And I want it all.
- Tomorrow?
Yes, tomorrow.
Either you pay me or I'll kick you out.
- Did you hear?
- Yeah.
Well, see you tomorrow.
You, hello.
Come out, we need to talk.
You heard him, didn't you?
Hey, I'm sorry.
Who would have known there would be
A fucking patrol car there?
Who would have known
You have to stop, Hugo.
Know
How much did the bail cost?
Think before you do things.
You're not a child anymore.
You can't go out every night,
and sleep all day.
Can you hear me?
I just wanted to mess with Jose's car
because of what he did to you.
Are you okay?
Does it hurt?
- Yes, I'm fine.
He'll never see me again.
Let's see if it's true.
- Damn.
- That?
With the fighting and the shouting, I let myself go
the purchase in the trunk of Jos.
Well, it's okay.
Yes, because everything was there
for your cake.
Tomorrow is your birthday,
You know that, right?
- Is it like Mom's?
- Yeah.
I don't want cake.
It reminds me of before.
Inside nothing
We have her here smoking
and complaining about everything,
that nobody helps her.
Smoking like you, right?
- You are the same.
- Yes, sure.
Hugo!
Cris!
Do I live alone or what? Is no one going to help me?
And then: "Don't touch,
"Don't touch me, I can do it myself."
There's a very big problem, Hugo.
We're getting fired tomorrow, I have no money.
There's no one left to ask.
We pooled the money.
And don't look at me like that, I'm going to change.
I'm looking for a job.
I have an interview today.
And I think I'm going to do well.
Do you know what else I have?
300 pavazos.
- Didn't they owe you a week's rent from the bazaar?
- No.
Three days.
Now I'm going to talk to Joan,
But we didn't end up on very good terms.
You're absent whenever you feel like it.
Were you expecting a prize?
You wouldn't believe how hard the Chinese work.
Besides, I was only absent for a couple of days.
If the problem is going to be the Chinese
who work hard,
Not you, you're a piece of work.
I'm telling you, they're not paying me for it.
- Okay, go over and ask him, alright?
- OK.
And be polite: "Please, thank you."
- "Sorry".
- Yes, damn it, yes.
Excuse me, can I steal from you?
Just a minute? It won't be longer.
It's an interview
for a local channel in Madrid
regarding the cost of housing,
rent, job opportunities.
I'm the only one who works at my house.
and four of us live there.
Well, at first I felt better,
Now I'm getting worse.
I'm finding it difficult, I'm finding it difficult.
Between 1300 and 1500.
My salary doesn't compensate me.
the rent.
It's practically all invested
60% of the salary.
Yes, you can't save money.
we spent everything
in expenses, school
700, 800 is the cheapest.
I earn between 1200 and 1300.
Don't mess around.
Joan.
No.
No no.
What the hell, I was only absent for two days.
But you'll have to pay me.
Joan.
Joan.
You bastard. He hung up on me.
Okay. We have a thousand, with what you've given me.
This morning, 1300.
How much do they owe you?
I've already told you not to count on that.
Now I'm going to talk to him
Okay, so we're 700 short.
Hand! What's up, you?
Quiet,
that nothing will be lacking tonight.
It's Huguito's birthday,
come to the bar,
You ask me in short, don't be so bold,
But we have it.
Big hug,
See you tonight, brother.
But what does Cris say?
- Come on, we're all here.
- You look beautiful today.
I've told you a thousand times,
Okay, you come.
and another thing that this is
a soup kitchen.
- But what difference does it make to you, little girl?
- You've got some nerve.
This is fucking great tonight.
There at the hotel
Five stars for that bricklayers' place.
I already told you, brother.
that this was going to bring us
Problems
- That's it, let's have breakfast, come on.
- Venga, life.
- Idiot.
The price of rent
the housing continues to skyrocket,
especially in capital cities
like Madrid and Barcelona
Cris, two coffees for table three,
pasture
Look: "We regret to inform you
that on this occasion
has not been selected
for the vacancy in our office."
"Human Resources".
I'm so fucking pissed off!
They're bastards, that's what they are.
I need a job, man.
- I have to ask you a favor.
- Sure, what else do you need?
Some pasta.
- 200, 300.
- 200, 300 bucks?
- I don't have a penny, you bastard.
- Like if I ask your parents.
I'm not exaggerating, it's a matter of life or death.
My parents don't even have enough for me.
What's happening?
They take us out of the apartment
if we don't pay tomorrow.
I wish I could help you.
Thank you so much.
Hugo!
- 500, it won't get me ahead any further.
- No way, it's really good, isn't it?
Uh, no.
- Lend me ten euros, I need them.
Nothing comes out of this envelope.
Can you hear me? Get what's missing.
And you bring it to me.
- I'll pay you today, I'm free this afternoon.
Didn't you give us until tomorrow?
But if I can pay you today, all the better.
That's how we shut him up.
- Okay, 200 are needed, right?
- Yeah.
I'll get them for you, I swear.
In less time than it takes a rooster to crow,
I will buy a castle for the three of us,
a castle
and a house in the
playa.
I'll exchange it for you whenever you want.
Take.
So what are you going to do?
I have a business idea.
Give me ten bucks.
What business idea?
I don't have a penny, I told you.
Not even ten euros?
- Not even ten euros.
- Year.
Not even ten euros, man, what a rip-off.
Ten bucks? I'll get them for you.
As?
I'm going to teach you a technique,
You're going to be blown away.
Stop here.
The napkin from your sister's place,
I make a very nice compact ball.
Pretend to buy something.
Now the people who put here
The coin, where does the change go?
- To the compact ball.
- That.
What an engineer.
Now we wait.
- What a shitty idea.
- Listen to me.
There you have the first fool.
Did you see?
This is made in Malaga, mate.
- Made in Malaga?
Sure.
Malaga, Andalusia, summer.
Since you're not going anywhere,
It sounds like Chinese to you.
What do you mean, no?
I've left a lot of times, but when I was little.
Where?
In Versailles.
That's in France, isn't it?
He looks gorgeous.
When were your parents together?
Family vacation,
I really want to go back.
I imagine Versailles is beautiful.
- The shitty thing is, they speak French.
- And?
In Spanish you understand each other, it's almost the same.
I haven't seen your father in a long time.
- I've run into him before.
- Don't you want to reconnect?
He's not here and he's not expected.
And your mother?
Working in Versailles.
My cousin goes to the gym with Nacho Blanco,
the one from the institute.
He says your sister told him
that your mother was caught
with a suitcase full of paw prints
and I don't know what.
He's an idiot, that's a lie.
My mother works in Versailles,
He left when he left him with my dad.
People talk a lot.
And what does he do for a living?
From a gardener.
And he loves it.
Plants have their own charm.
The indoor ones
If you take them out, they die.
If you water them too much, they die.
If you don't water them, too.
They have their trick.
He says he's like people.
I would be a cactus,
You're not getting rid of me, not a chance.
Come on, let's go.
You've missed one there.
Don't help, okay?
- How much did you need?
- How much is there?
Here are three,
six,
eight turkeys.
That's fine by us, fucking great.
Now Joan.
If I had the money, I'd sign up for this one.
and he was starting martial arts.
- You know what would be cool? Taekwondo.
- Taekwondo?
- I'll put it in Jos like this.
- Come in.
- And a little bit of a party tonight?
- We'll see.
What do you mean, "we'll see"? It's your birthday,
It's organized, we have free drinks.
My sister says
who wants to join the church now
and that she wants me to accompany her.
- Tell him we're hungover on Sundays.
- That's what I told him.
But he says there's Mass
Saturday afternoons.
- We drink on Saturdays.
- I've told him too.
My father, when he lived with us,
I went to the tobacconist every Sunday
go buy tobacco and play the Euromillions.
He said that one had to have faith.
My sister Cris says what a...
We have bad luck in this family.
I guess it'll be your turn
a father who leaves home
and doesn't want to know anything
It's bad luck and a real bummer.
Although in truth,
Thinking about it, if he didn't love us,
It's lucky that he left.
The shitty thing is that he didn't leave sooner.
because that way I wouldn't have any memories of him.
Yes, he
No, no, no
One of these horses
I'd get myself a GS.
She's pretty, isn't she?
- What's wrong, Ana?
- Hello, Hugo.
Hello good.
Pay attention to my business idea.
I was in Cuatro Caminos,
where the flower shop is.
- What's happening?
- Okay, I did all of Bravo Murillo,
up to the Plaza Castilla courts.
- A little patio.
- A kick.
I saw that there are a lot of places.
Small, small.
In other words, there are kebabs,
Colombian restaurants,
Bolivian restaurants,
Peruvians, Arabs,
Chinese and Indian supermarkets.
- Florists, lawyers.
- What's happening?
They all have in common
that have crystals.
Crystals?
Windows that need cleaning.
For ten bucks we'll let you
the gleaming crystals.
- I understand, I understand.
- If we make 20, that's 200 bucks.
200 turkeys
That's one hundred bucks each.
- Exactly.
- Well, I'll give you my share.
First, we need to get
the 20 locations.
Damn, Huguito has some great ideas.
Come on, come on.
Vale, pllate
Cristasol,
whatever shit we need.
I'm going to see Joan.
- I'll take a bucket, right?
- Yeah.
Cube.
A cube.
This is a classic, little cloth.
Here, take it.
Don't give up, she said.
Have you paid? Let's go.
- See you later, Ana.
- Chao.
Chao.
- What are you singing?
- That?
- What are you singing?
- You're welcome.
What are you humming, you idiot?
- It was playing in Chinese, wasn't it?
- What a blow.
He says yes.
- Wax on, wax off.
- Jackie Chan from the Tetun neighborhood.
Have you seen us?
I don't know, but let's go.
- And the pasta?
- Fuck him.
Hey, what about the cookie you were going to give him?
I'm not going to hit him
In front of everyone, right?
Wow! Look how beautiful she is.
Like yours, but in gold.
This has to cost money.
- Gorgeous.
- I'm going to talk to this one.
- Top, no?
- It's fucking great.
Thank you very much, see you later.
Yes?
One more, one more, one more.
That's great, brother.
You're crazy out there in the sun.
When I grow up, I want this.
But in my Malaga,
that the sun hits differently.
What are you laughing at, you idiot?
I found the "older" part funny.
As if you were a child.
Well, in old age, without worries,
like retirees.
- Because they receive their pension.
- So, retired, right?
For that, we need to work beforehand.
champion.
That's also true.
- How strong is the sun in Malaga?
- Different.
And a plan?
It sticks better than here,
With the breeze you don't even notice,
You end up looking like a lobster.
You go out at night
and you don't get a single cent.
Because of the sun, of course, of course.
Are you stupid, or what?
I'm fed up already.
- There's not much time left.
- Three or four and we'll have 200, right?
We'll have plenty.
Where will that be?
The fact that?
Punta Cana, right?
Did anyone swim from Malaga?
- I think so.
- No way
I don't think so.
Okay, go on, get the little bottle out.
Which little bottle?
I saw you, get the bottle out.
Yes, yes.
And right on point.
- Cheers, brother.
- Health.
Thank you so much,
You saved my life.
200 turkeys in one morning,
What if we did this every day?
Daily?
- My back hurts from bending over.
- Exaggerated.
I swear.
Look what I have.
That?
What a bastard!
Gorgeous.
She looks beautiful.
Very.
Shut up.
Happy birthday, Huguito.
- For me?
- I love you, you bastard.
You deserve it.
Let's see how it looks on me.
- AND?
- She looks beautiful.
- Yes or no?
- It looks fucking great on you.
Hey, I lied to you.
With what?
With what happened to my mother and all.
I'm the one who asks too many questions.
- Don't worry.
The thing is
Yes, she is in prison.
For drug trafficking.
- But it'll be out in two years.
- Well, he doesn't have much time left then.
That's why I need a job, man.
so that I can get money.
I need to save
for an apartment for the three of us.
If you save up, you can stick around
a summer in Versailles.
- Idiot.
- Don't you want more empanada?
No, you eat it, I'm going to eat with Alba.
Which Alba?
Alba, from Fabrik, don't you remember?
Do you think I'm your secretary?
Should I write down the powder for you?
- I'll make the appointment for you now.
- If you're interested, the position is vacant.
That way you won't forget to write.
Give me your sister's number.
He calls me every night
and I never know who it is.
Your mother does it perfectly,
He always sends me a little message.
Just like yours,
He calls me every month for a face-to-face meeting.
- It never fails.
- You went too far there, didn't you?
Just kidding, mate.
- You've gone too far, you bastard.
- I'm just kidding.
A face-to-face meeting, dude?
Are you going to get angry? Just kidding.
Give me some ice cubes, boss, please.
And while you're at it, charge me.
There it is.
Perfect, thank you.
What are you doing?
- How much is there?
- Shit.
Card, metro pass.
Ten turkeys.
- Which is basically nothing.
- That's karma.
That would be if something bad had happened.
- Has something bad happened?
- Don't lump me in with you.
And you should stop stealing from people.
Mary Magdalene.
- Do you believe in miracles?
- Me? No way.
Are you or what?
Excuse me, can I ask you a few questions?
Sure.
- What is it for?
The cost of housing,
rent, work
You put them here,
Edu, come this way.
With Bravo Murillo in the background
It will look good.
They are very simple questions.
Shall we begin?
First, how old are you?
- 26 years old.
- 24.
It has almost no windows.
Because it used to be a movie theater,
and now a slot machine parlor.
I'll show you what a summer is like.
in Versailles without leaving the neighborhood.
What's wrong, Maria?
And now we go straight up to six.
- Damn!
- TRUE?
Yes, it does have good views.
He's handsome, isn't he?
I'm not going to the interview.
What do you mean, no?
You're always dealing with the real estate agency,
que si Tecnocasa
Listen to me,
You're going to do great.
Do you think I'm ready for that?
Ready for what?
To open the door and show an apartment?
Here we have an American kitchen
fully furnished.
We have two bathrooms,
street light,
40 square meters, a thousand turkeys.
They snatch it right out of your hands.
I don't know,
The group has education and speaks languages.
It's a piece of paper that puts things on it.
Don't you know how to say it in English?
Here's the kitchen,
Here's the toilet, balconing?
Classic.
That job must be great.
Picture yourself looking sharp in your suit.
It's silly, but it makes me happy.
- My father was a salesman too.
- Not anymore?
I don't know.
I imagine so.
He would arrive home at night,
He unbuttoned his tie,
He winked at me.
What times, man.
You never know when it will be
the last time you see something.
You have to be there.
The only thing that was left
The bastard was his suit.
Okay, give it to me.
What will be more important,
The interview or the resume?
Let's do one thing,
Take the chair and put it there.
Listen to me.
This space is the office.
Let's simulate the interview.
- You're already late.
Okay, let's go.
- Aren't you going to knock or what?
- OK.
Forward.
Good afternoon.
What is her name, how old is she?
No way, he'll know.
He has his resume in front of him.
Who's doing the interview, you or me?
Trust me, these people are going to get caught.
Tell me your full name
and age.
My name is Hugo Fernndez Vera,
I am 23, almost 24 years old.
It's not going to be for 22, you idiot.
Focus, kid.
Why do you think you deserve this job?
I don't know.
Don't you know? Tell him/her good things.
You have a lot of good things.
What makes you different?
Well, look here, sir,
I'm going to tell you two things.
I think I'm good enough for this job
Just because.
- Because yes, damn it!
That's the general idea.
That?
What do you think?
Everything?
Everything.
I told you, trust me.
They're a little wrinkled,
But I think that's everything.
- I'm going to see Mom later.
- OK.
- I'm leaving, like with Alba.
- No, no, no.
Come by the house and pay for it.
Take.
Don't mess with me, Cris.
I'm having lunch with his parents.
I don't even know them.
- Weren't you supposed to have the day off today?
- Inma has fallen ill.
The boss asked me to do it.
I'm not going to say no to him,
He's done me a huge favor.
- Like with Alba and I go over.
- But right after.
- Right after.
- Please.
Yes, damn it.
Hugo.
That?
I love you.
You more.
Me right now
I don't even have a salary.
I invest about 60-70% of my salary
approximately in housing.
Then we went to an apartment
which was already worth 800 euros,
and from there up to 1100,
which is still the case.
All the money is gone.
Because of the previous apartment,
Now the salary doesn't arrive anymore.
My mother has helped me
with his pension, fortunately.
Like 1100
the rent of the house plus the electricity.
It's really hard for me, I'm self-employed.
Well over 50% of my salary.
Do you live with your parents or share?
apartment with five strangers.
Very difficult, very difficult.
It's really complicated, to be honest.
As a child, I used to pray asking for
that my father would come home,
But it never happened.
I had imagined it a thousand times
what his new family would be like.
Above all, I imagined his life,
It must have been incredible.
They would be rich and live in another country,
seeing them here and now.
I don't know, happy.
I wish there was a really good reason.
for the one who said: "Ah, sure, normal."
- Hello good.
- Hello.
I thought you were going to look super handsome.
Yeah, I just haven't had time.
I said you were a colleague.
That's what we are, right?
Come on in.
- Hey, doesn't your grandma eat with us?
- No, she has her own schedule.
Mom, what are you doing now?
Did your parents too?
Do they drive you crazy, Hugo?
Sometimes.
I look a lot like my mother,
With her, even less so.
But my father and I did clash.
- Everything is delicious.
- Thank you.
- I've helped too.
- Alba, don't lie, you haven't done anything.
And tell us, Hugo.
Mom, we know each other.
With the interrogations, huh?
- I told them to leave you alone.
- I'm calm.
Because they start and they don't stop.
Besides, I told you he's a colleague,
It's his birthday,
that he had no plan,
That's why I invited him to lunch.
- That's it, just be nice, end of story.
- No problem.
And what are you studying, Hugo?
Nothing now, I haven't studied for a few years.
- Oh, you work?
- I'm looking.
I actually have an interview today.
- Look, that's how you'll be next year.
- Yes, dad, yes.
- One year
- Yes, Dad.
- You have one year left as a student.
- Don't remind me.
- I think you're going to Salamanca
- Mom, please.
and I feel like crying.
I feel like crying.
- Thank you for my part in it.
- You're my favorite, daughter.
Don't try to fix it now.
Are you going to Salamanca?
If I told you I was
in the last year of uni.
- I thought it was here in Madrid.
- No, in Salamanca.
Send a message to Avelino.
I don't like WhatsApp.
Call him on the phone.
We called him later.
Leave it there. Well, yeah, wherever.
- I'm going to leave now.
- Yeah?
- Don't you want a coffee?
- No.
- I need to prepare for the interview.
- OK.
- Oh no, how embarrassing.
- The fact that?
My parents drink a glass of wine
And they start to dance. Look, come here.
Can one miss it?
Something you haven't experienced?
- Are you sure nobody can see us here?
- Yes, don't worry, nobody ever goes up there.
Go ahead, sit down.
To.
That?
What's happening?
I don't know if this makes much sense.
If we're going to stop seeing each other,
It's best to stop it now.
Why would we stop seeing each other?
- I'm going to come back many weekends.
- Yes.
You won't say the same
When you're with your new friends,
your classes, the residence, I don't know what.
You'll see.
But, Hugo,
We are getting to know each other.
Why so much pressure?
Furthermore, we are not on different pages.
I study, you look for a job.
But before you know it,
I don't know...
Are you having a good time with me?
Of course.
Me too.
I like you and
And?
I like you, period.
I like your eyes.
I was thinking about it, downstairs at home.
Yeah, liar.
My eyes are just that.
- No, just like that, no.
- Browns.
Coca-Cola color.
Of
So, at different points.
I have said in pages.
There's nobody there.
Can?
There I am.
Fuck!
Fuck!
What does my colleague say?
- My motorcycle has been stolen, man.
- What are you saying?
I'm so fucking pissed off!
Here at Alba's house.
They've taken her away.
Ask at Carlos's workshop.
who finds out about everything.
Now I'll see what I can do.
Hugo Fernndez.
Customer service, salesperson
Good afternoon, Hugo.
- Good afternoon.
- Pablo.
- A place.
- Okay, tell me a little bit about yourself.
Well, I think
that I am very suitable for the job.
I have done several
Yes, I see that you have
several customer-facing jobs.
And this needs that,
getting along, having empathy, being articulate.
That's great!
because you have teamwork,
Customer service, English level A2.
Well, department stores,
The seller is great.
- Sorry.
- Dime.
I don't want to lie to him.
Many of the things it puts there
You haven't done it.
But I think I'm good enough for this.
Why do you think you're good at this, Hugo?
Well, maybe because
I know what it's like to have a home.
And I know what it's like to lose it.
Look, I'm sure that
any of those candidates
He has more experience than I do.
But I'm very good at reading people.
Because I've been there
And I want to do things right.
Wanting to do things right
It's not always worth it.
It will take no more than 24-48 hours
in giving you an answer,
whether positive or negative.
Carlos!
Carlos!
Carlos!
- Can you call Carlos for me, please?
- Child!
- What are you saying, Hugo?
- What's up, man?
- How are you?
- Good and you?
Very well, where are you going looking so handsome?
Are you here for a wedding or what?
I'm not in the mood for parties.
What happened to you?
Has your motorcycle seized up again?
- That motorcycle is a piece of junk.
- No way, no way, no way.
Worse, it's been stolen from me
- You're kidding me.
- You wouldn't know anything, would you?
What would I know?
They can't sell that motorcycle, can they?
What are they going to sell, bro? It's worthless.
Only the tube is worth it.
that I put on last time.
Damn, you really don't know anything?
I have no fucking idea.
Okay, okay, are you sure you don't know anything?
Are you coming to my work?
Are you going to call me a thief or what?
No, no, not you, but I mean,
one of your colleagues or something.
My colleagues know nothing,
You're touching my dick.
- Give me a hand.
- My kids don't know anything, bro.
Why are you coming to my workplace?
Sorry, man.
- Damn, dude.
- I don't know what to do, I'm desperate.
Grab a beer, go.
I'm going to ask
Let's see if anyone knows anything.
Huguito, the kid, has arrived
from my neighborhood, this pipe.
He says that if we know anything
They flipped his motorcycle over.
A silver Yamaha NEO's,
You remember, right?
Yeah.
If you find out anything, let me know, okay? Come on.
Huguito.
- He hasn't got a fucking clue, man.
- Nothing, right?
I told them that if they find out,
Let them tell me.
OK.
I'll tell you whatever it is.
Thank you, and sorry.
Forgive me, I've lost my mind.
Okay, bye.
Come on.
My mother was almost never home.
And when I was there,
He slept all day in his room.
Sometimes he would leave at night
and didn't return for several days.
I remember those times
in which I was fine,
walking down the street hand in hand
to accompany her to the pharmacy.
They gave him methadone pills.
I took them
with a small plastic cup
and the pharmacist had to check
that had swallowed them
making her raise her tongue.
My mother laughed,
looking at me as if it were a game.
At home,
when I wondered
if I had brushed my teeth,
I did the same thing.
She opened her mouth and raised her tongue,
I laughed, imitating her.
Thank you.
- My love.
- How are you, Mom?
Very well, now that you're here.
You look so handsome, so elegant.
- Did you see?
- Your father's suit, right?
I thought you weren't coming.
I promised you.
Yes.
How's it going?
Very good.
I am studying.
Yes, the gardening thing?
Yes, that's what the workshops are.
but I've gotten involved
to get my diploma.
No way.
- Yes, yes.
- Excellent.
By the time I get out of here, you know?
- They ask for it everywhere.
- Yes.
Are you okay, Hugo?
Yeah.
- We're doing quite well.
- I'm so glad.
- And look how I go to work, damn it.
- So?
Yeah.
Don't cry.
Two years go by in no time, not at all.
Your fucking mother!
Stay there and don't run away.
I don't want to chase you.
Because I swear I'll kill you.
You're going to pay me for the bowler hat,
You've messed it up by forcing it.
Can you hear me, clown?
- Your b is going to pay for it
- As?
Leave my sister alone.
Where are you going?
Shit.
You fucking brat!
Does it hurt?
You need to go to the hospital.
I'm leaving in two hours.
But you must go through that gap,
They'll have you there.
that put sure points.
No way!
Thank goodness your mom didn't see you like that.
Hugo,
I wanted to tell you that I know
that you love your mom very much.
I love her too, you know that, but
I don't want you to get your hopes up.
with the whole living together thing.
What
I hope so, but
Mom is sick.
It's okay now, it's clean.
He has no other choice in there.
You were very young, don't you remember?
But I've already been through this.
Everything seems to be going well.
And suddenly everything goes wrong again.
Because that's how it is, it's an addiction.
- And she falls and falls.
- I don't give a damn.
I will always be there to lift her up.
I know it, and I'm with you.
Here, change.
Hugo, what I want to tell you is
that I don't want
base your future plans on
that she'll be okay
and that we're going to live together
because we don't know.
We will do our best.
And she does too, I'm sure.
But let's take it one step at a time.
- He only has two years left.
- Yeah, but, damn.
Three lifetimes pass in two years.
Hey, Cris.
I feel like I'm not in control of anything lately.
Everything goes wrong for me.
Everything will be alright.
You'll see.
Have you paid for the apartment, Hugo?
- Have you paid for the apartment?
- It's been stolen, damn it.
God.
What are we going to do now?
Oh, God.
Sorry.
Is your kitchen open?
I wanted some sandwiches to take away.
- Yes, come in.
- Wow, thank you, you saved my life.
- Tell me, what did you want?
- Well, two pork loin and cheese sandwiches.
And for the girl, I don't know,
something with softer bread.
- A mixed one, for example?
- A great mix.
I'm going to the bathroom for a second,
Don't move.
Do you promise me?
Are you going to stay still?
We know each other, right?
Don't be scared, it doesn't hurt.
They asked you for the same thing they asked me for,
We are the same.
Want to try?
Very good.
Don't take anything from strangers.
You're almost there, huh?
Well
I got lost because I was going too fast.
Oh.
Turn and adjust.
Turn and adjust.
- Turn and adjust.
- There you go, you're getting there, huh?
Wow! You're so nice.
No
Yes!
You've already broken it, now what?
When you finish it,
You mess it up and start again.
That's how the game is played.
- I'll pay you by card, okay?
- OK.
Do you like licorice?
Here, this is for you.
Wow, how lucky.
Very good.
- What are they saying?
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Nothing.
Well, that's it.
Come on, Abril, we're going home.
We're leaving, thank you.
- Bye bye.
- Bye bye.
- What's wrong, Manu?
- Has the motorcycle turned up or what?
- No, man.
- I shit on the whore.
Come here and we'll see what we can do.
Don't back out on your birthday, okay?
No, no, not at all, I'm going, I'm going.
I have to tell you,
I'm having the worst day of my fucking life.
Chico.
You can go in, it's free.
Look, all of this is really good.
- Come on, come on.
- No, don't worry.
Thank you.
- How are you, my son?
- Hello good.
What can I do for you?
I wanted to return this.
I ran into him on the street.
Very good, you did very well.
We will look for its owner.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
My God, how has he left you?
This idiot.
- Does it hurt or what?
- Yes, you bastard, get out of here.
I've spoken to my parents.
You and your sister can stay
at my place.
We'll see.
how we organize ourselves.
Are you okay or not?
- Yeah.
- Are you safe?
- Yeah.
I'll call my sister now.
- Listen, Alba is inside.
- What are you talking about?
What should I say to him/her?
Honestly, what are you going to say to him?
- What's up, dude? What happened there?
Nothing.
- Hi, what happened to you?
Nothing.
- As?
- Nothing, nothing.
- But what happened to you?
- Nothing, it's nothing.
What do you mean, nothing? Have you seen yourself?
What happened?
Which is nothing.
- Tell me about it.
- So that?
What do you mean, "what for?"
- You don't know me.
- What are you saying?
I'm not telling you anything about my fucking life
so that you leave
and you say: "Poor fellow from Madrid,
"I feel so sorry for you."
What are you saying?
I don't feel sorry for you, sorry for what?
- Your life is not like mine.
- Hugo, what are you so afraid of?
Hugo, if you don't tell me
I can't guess.
- What happened to you?
- What should I tell you, damn it, what?
What, my mother is a junkie?
She's in jail because she was caught.
with I don't know how much, is that it?
What about my sister?
Didn't she have a childhood because she was taking care of me?
Did her fucking ex-boyfriend do this to me?
And does she hit her too?
That my father abandoned us,
who has another family,
I see him on the damn street
And he doesn't even say hello to me?
I wake up every morning with fear
that my sister will abandon me,
that he gets tired of me like you will.
Listen to me.
Everyone who comes near me
It ends in shit, you too, Manu.
That they don't want me for any job.
I wouldn't hire myself either.
Is that what you wanted me to tell you?
What do you like so much about me, then?
I'm not going anywhere.
It's already 12 o'clock.
It's my birthday.
What a drag getting older is.
It's Huguito's birthday, let's go!
Let's go!
- This one's for you, little brother.
Carlos.
Tell me, I can't hear you, man.
As?
The motorbike?
Damn it Where, in the park?
Okay, how?
Okay, okay, thank you.
I'm so pissed off.
They burned my motorcycle.
So it's 14.50, cash or card?
You son of a bitch, come here! I swear to God.
Sons of bitches.
I can't believe it, man.
I can't believe it,
I can believe it.
- I'm moving.
- I shit on his fucking mother!
I shit on your dead relatives!
Sons of bitches!
Sons of bitches!
Even the pump has burned.
Not even the brakes survived.
Well, time for bed, right?
What a disaster.
- Rest.
- And you.
Quillo.
See you soon, right?
Where my sister's at, right?
When my sister made me dinner,
It was always spaghetti with tomato sauce.
And to find out if it was done,
He took a strand of spaghetti out of the pot.
He held it with two fingers.
burning, puffing,
and he threw it against the wall.
If it stuck, it was ready.
I remember one day I told him
why, being my sister,
She was the one in charge, which wasn't fair.
Cris stood against the door frame
and pressed his forehead against the wood.
With a marker he left
a mark that indicated his height.
He said that when he reached that mark,
I wouldn't have to obey her anymore.
The truth is that that brand
It was deleted a thousand years ago.
and I don't always listen to him.
- What are you doing here?
- We've always been from here.
I'm from Malaga,
But I grew up in this neighborhood.
Very good.
Work-related topic, how are things going?
Regular, but I'm looking now.
There we are, we are in the fight.
Can it be sent to him?
A hug and a kiss for his mother?
And another one for him, since it's his birthday.
Sending hugs, Hugo and Manu
From the neighborhood, for life.
