Swim to Me (2025) Movie Script
Okay. You have to get out
by yourself, okay?
-No! I don't want to!
-Relax.
-Everything's fine.
-No!
SWIM TO ME
Let's go!
Okay, Julia, let's go.
Swim this way.
Let's go.
Legs like tree trunks.
Don't bend your knees, Julia.
Legs outstretched.
Kick hard.
Give me your hand.
Okay, come here.
Come here.
All right, let's go.
-No.
-One more time. Ready?
-No.
-Don't worry. I learned the same way.
Give me your hand. Come here.
See? I told you it's fine.
Come on, Cristbal. Leave her alone.
Shall we?
Estela.
Estela!
Estela, are you there?
She's not trapped. She's clinging.
Julia, it's not funny.
Julia.
It's not funny at all. Enough.
I'm tired.
Come on. Oh, sweetie!
Julia, enough.
Stop. I have to work.
I'm tired.
-Estela can braid your hair, sweetie.
-Hello?
Please connect me to Pediatrics
on the fourth floor.
Yes. A seven-year-old girl.
A scoliosis patient.
I was told she had a slight fever.
Okay. Let's get a referral
from Infectious Diseases, please.
Shall we go clean our ears
with cotton swabs?
You don't want cotton swabs.
Then put up with it.
-All that should get thrown away.
-Okay.
-All that there. That box too.
-Yeah.
He still hasn't thrown away
his mom's clothes.
Look!
Look what I found. The swimming cap.
Sweetie, I promise I'll buy you a new one.
Hey, Chinita.
Look at me.
I wanted to go with you,
but I won't be able to.
Okay?
-But Estela will go with you.
-I'm on vacation.
Can I start another day?
No. There was only one spot left,
and I had to run to reserve it.
Put it on her, okay?
Chinita, look at me.
At Caburgua Lake,
the two of us will practice together.
How much longer until we go?
Besides, you need to go out,
have a good time, learn things.
You can't spend all day
cooped up in the house with Estela.
It's my turn to sit down.
No.
-See you later.
-Bye!
Yes?
I'm here with her.
Okay, Mom.
If you want to dunk them
We blow
And when the child goes
closes their eyes,
we dunk them and lift them out.
Okay?
That's it. Good.
It hurts.
It hurts!
Hey this water is full of lice.
Who's going to get them off you later? Me?
No.
If you put it over the back first,
it's much easier.
Vicente.
Let's see.
Faster.
Everyone follow Miss Natalia. Okay?
That way, over there.
No running, okay? Take it easy.
Moms and Dads,
I invite you to go to the cafeteria.
-You can have breakfast.
-Go on.
Everything okay, Julia?
Take your time. At your own pace.
Whenever you want.
Okay.
Okay, kids, let's go in the water?
Come on, Julia.
You go first.
But, hey
Okay. Everybody else, into the water.
C'mon, kids!
What happened?
You don't want to go in the water?
Let's go together. Come with me.
Everybody's in the water,
all your friends.
It's all right. You're gonna learn, okay?
Come on. Let's jump in together.
On the count of three. One, two, three!
Ma'am? Excuse me. You can't come in here.
Ma'am, no
On the count of one
Julia, are you okay? Do you want to leave?
Shall we? Let's go.
But, hey
She has to stay
until the end of the class.
We came for nothing.
Does that seem right to you?
Now you'll have to come with me
on some errands.
What will you tell your parents?
That I don't want to swim.
But you have to learn, Julia,
sooner or later.
Where did you learn to swim?
Did they force you?
So dramatic about everything.
I'll teach you how to swim.
End of story.
What about the ice cream?
You didn't even put a toe in the water.
Okay, let's go.
Stay here, Julia.
Hi.
-Good afternoon.
-For Mara Rosa Torres.
Perfect.
She can withdraw it as of tomorrow
at the Castro branch.
-She must give the number on the ticket.
-Okay.
-Ma'am!
-Huh?
Your ticket.
-Next. Good afternoon.
-How are you?
Julia!
What did I say about wandering off?
Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Last one.
Shall we?
I'll buy you something.
One thing.
Something useful.
Put that back. I said one thing.
The blue one for me
and the pink one for you.
-I don't like pink.
-Neither do I.
The first classes are always like this.
They're always difficult.
Horrible.
Well, but you'll have to get used to it.
That's it.
What happened, Estela?
The water was very cold.
The teacher had too many students.
It could be dangerous.
That club is more rundown every day.
They told me there would be
maximum five kids per class.
There were lots more. Like 43 or more.
Sweetie, by the time we're at the lake,
you'll be swimming.
If the children don't have the confidence
to enter the water,
it's better to do so at a depth
that allows them to touch the floor.
The best exercises to learn to swim
are to put one's head under
and exhale through
It's a video call, Mom.
I can only see your hair.
Turn the camera around.
Look. See?
You can't eat vegetables here.
They taste like nothing.
That's so nice.
Have the bus tickets gone up yet?
Hey, don't buy them for the holidays,
because they get too expensive.
Why would you come for so few days?
What for, I say?
Sonia started working at the salmon farm.
She says it's not bad.
Forget it. You're good there.
Your cousin gets paid next to nothing,
if at all.
Plus, they poison those poor creatures.
Then they get sick and die.
and four criminals entered.
Based on how they looked,
and how they moved, I think
The store I shop at was robbed.
You get used to everything.
They'll kill you for a cell phone.
They break into houses at night.
That's who we are.
That's not who we are, Mom.
Juanita!
Borja!
Come here!
Kids, time to go home!
-Hi, Estela.
-Estela, look!
Can we get in?
-Let's see.
-Where'd these pirates come from?
Borja always goes up first.
Okay, easy. Slow down.
We'll be here, Estela, look.
Two weeks at Caburgua Lake.
Yes, but it's baby-sized.
-Like it, guys?
-This is the way down.
Come on. That's it!
One, two, three,
four, five, six,
seven, eight
Rest.
At least I'm getting better.
-Better than nothing.
-What do you mean, "better than nothing"?
Better than nothing.
Five times ten
Five like ten times five
Twelve, like thirteen
Twelve or thirteen hours
Yes.
You make me last more and more.
Okay, we just have to heat this stuff up.
It heats up, and then it'll work.
Feel anything?
Yes.
Smile. You're not being filmed.
Are you new?
No, I'm already 40.
Not that new and not that promising.
Just kidding. I just started last week.
A red one, please.
He doesn't like when people spend money.
He's an austere dog.
You work around here?
Me too.
I mean, if you come by again,
we may see each other or something.
I have plenty of time.
My pleasure.
Go home.
Hey, slow down.
You're supposed to enjoy the food.
You filthy damn mutt.
No barking here.
Shoo!
Shoo! Shoo!
Oh, Estela, I'm exhausted.
I'd be happy to skip this opening.
Mara, it's your friend's event.
You rushed me.
It's 7:30, and it says
it takes 47 minutes to get there.
Plus time to park.
Julia, stand up, please. You have feet.
Stop crawling.
If she doesn't eat, no TV.
Okay.
Curator?
Or artist?
That one.
Okay.
Julia.
Julia.
Julia.
When I move, she keeps looking at me.
Okay. She can't look at you now.
Upside down, she can't go anywhere.
Okay, go to sleep.
Okay.
Get some rest.
What is it, Sonia? I can't talk.
Hold on. Your mom.
What happened?
I don't know exactly
what happened to her, but
I mean, I couldn't talk to her.
-But she had a fracture.
-Where is she?
They sat her up, and they shouldn't have.
And?
-Who saw her? Did you talk to her?
-I didn't see her.
-The neighbor.
-And did you see how she was?
-No, she found her on the ground.
-Were you there or?
Did you touch her? What did she break?
She grabbed a branch, the branch broke,
she fell out of the chair,
and broke her hip.
She's in the hospital for surgery.
And can you stay with her
until I get there?
Yes, I'll be with her. Don't worry.
-I mean, until you come.
-I'll have a talk here and sort it out.
Okay.
What's fun about smoking?
What are you doing here?
No, no. Go to bed.
No minors allowed in here.
Your parents don't like
you to come in this room.
I'm scared.
There's still things above the ceiling.
They're called stars.
I mean it.
They're mice running around
in the ceiling.
Not even one cigarette in peace.
they're called antlers, not horns,
because they grow them out over and over.
Close your eyes.
Only owls don't sleep.
When I was your age,
I slept completely still.
Like a mummy.
My mom and I had to share the bed.
Today, she fell and she was alone.
That's how she is.
You never know.
She says she doesn't want me to go,
but she does.
Hey, you!
Hey!
Hey!
Are you older than my mom?
We're about the same.
Are you going to die when she does?
First, my grandma died.
Nena.
Then, my dad's going to die,
then my mom or you, and then me.
No.
Unbearable girls live a long time.
Only the good die young.
Cristbal.
What?
Estela needs to talk to us.
About what?
I guess her mom's issue is serious.
Your mom is having surgery?
Yes.
Will you have to travel, Estela?
Yes. She's supposed to get
a hip replacement tomorrow.
Well, hip replacements are
a routine surgery nowadays.
Complications are extremely rare. So
I can't, Cristbal.
I have to spend all day in the workshop
to wrap a ton of pieces.
I have to deliver on Monday. I can't.
Yes, I know.
Estela, what if we pay for a flight
and you travel on Monday?
That might be better.
Look, if you go now,
they won't even let you in.
That's true.
I think it's better
to get there for the post-op.
That way, you'll be there
for the follow-ups, aftercare
Leave my drawer alone.
She's in surgery right now.
Hi, Estela.
She just woke up from the anesthesia.
She woke up a little sad,
but they say that's normal.
Is she okay?
I WANT TO DRINK FROM YOUR LIPS
TO QUENCH MY SOUL'S THIRSWhat's this?
It's something that brings you luck,
that protects you.
For what?
It's an amulet
to keep you from falling in love.
Why not fall in love?
To not have a bad time.
It's nice. Will you give it to me?
No, it's mine.
You talk to the kids, okay?
I'm not in the mood.
No, leave it!
No!
-Stop!
-Okay, stop. You two have to stop.
No, no, no.
I want another sheet.
I want them to leave.
I heard you.
Julia.
You can't lock yourself in again.
Are you going back to your mom's?
If I go, who will take care of you?
Want to get up?
Oh, your brother called me this morning.
He showed up?
Don't start.
You two are even.
No, Mom, I didn't disappear.
I came here for work.
And I'll visit as soon
as Sonia runs out of days off,
so that we take turns providing care.
I already told you, I'm fine now.
Save those days for vacation.
Okay, Mom.
Let's talk tomorrow.
Kisses. Bye.
Look what she brought you!
-Look, dog.
-He asks about you every day.
But we don't know your name.
Estela.
Carlos. Nice to meet you.
Does he break into your house too?
Yes, but it's not my house.
Quite the beggar, huh?
Going from house to house.
Where are you from?
Chilo.
Chilo!
How is it?
More trees than people.
Maple, oak, elm, myrtle,
laurel.
And you, where do you live?
Here.
I'm taking care
of a friend's house around here.
For a few months.
Just a moment.
Here, here.
When I moved to Santiago,
I thought the air smelled like dust,
that it was very hot,
and that everything was two colors,
yellow or brown.
Yellow trees, brown hills.
Yellow buildings, brown squares.
Hey, what are you doing? No, don't.
If they see you smoking, they'll fire me.
How could they fire you? Where would
they get a replacement this time of year?
"Hey, boss."
"Are we going to work
on the Day of the Dead?"
Is this a joke?
"What, are you dead? No?"
"Then what?"
"Off to work with you!"
Not funny.
-I'm the nanny.
-Take those off.
Take them off now.
Take them off, Julia!
Take them off!
Come on, Julia, take them off.
One, two, three, down.
One, two, three, up.
One, two, three, down.
One, two, three, up.
One, two, three, down.
That's it.
Puff up your chest like a pigeon.
Pigeons don't swim.
I've been here for like an hour.
Can I have a break?
You're so stubborn
to be already up and about, Mom.
Yes, I'm going right back to bed.
I was just feeding the cat.
Merry Christmas, Mom.
-Are you doing anything there tonight?
-Estela!
Mommy, I'm hanging up now.
I'll call you later. Okay?
Bye.
-Hi. Good evening. Did something happen?
-Good evening.
Were you the one who saw the guy
lurking around? Did you call?
No, I don't even know the number to call.
Everyone's asleep here.
It's 18-18.
18-18. Thank you.
I'll check across the street.
COMMUNITY PATROL
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Let's see. What is it?
-Ta-da!
-What is it?
-Look how pretty!
-What is it?
-It's a parrot!
-A parrot. Look, it's got something here.
-No, look.
-What's that?
-There, sweetie.
-There, let's see, look.
-Jingle bells.
Jingle bells.
Santa is dumb.
Santa is dumb.
Say something.
Julia is pretty.
Julia is pretty.
You like it?
Okay. Estela.
Estela's gift.
-This is embarrassing!
-What could it be?
Thank you very much.
Open it. Open it.
Look, a towel. How nice.
It's got a gift receipt.
-If it doesn't fit, or to exchange it.
-A swimsuit!
It's perfect for Caburgua.
Look, what a beautiful color.
Thank you.
You know I wouldn't go in the lake
even if you dragged me, though.
Okay, I'm heading out now.
Otherwise, I'll hit traffic. Okay?
Good.
Estela, go with him.
Last time I had him get a cake,
it got there in pieces.
-Hello.
-Hello.
I want to find my path in your open hands
And for you to feel like a woman
Only when you're with me
-What's this slum tune?
-I feel like having you tonight
I feel like having you tonight
Since when do you sing?
-Okay.
-Let's go. One, two, three!
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three, four!
Oh, almost.
Almost.
-Where's the exit?
-Huh?
Where's the exit?
-You want me to stay here?
-No.
Where's the exit?
Let's go.
Left wall, behind the pool,
there's an abandoned house.
After that, I don't know.
No, no, no.
-No. Please take everything!
-It's me.
-Take everything!
-It's Estela!
-Open up!
-It's me!
Open up!
He left.
-Close it. Close it.
-Yes, yes.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
-Lock the door.
-He came here fleeing the house next door.
-Listen, is everything locked?
-Yes, everything's locked.
Call the police.
Yes, I called, but he broke my phone.
I can't see anything.
-Call security, then.
-Yeah, I already called.
I can't see anything now.
Listen.
-Who should I talk to, to tell them
-I can't now. Wait a second.
-Good evening.
-Hello. Good evening.
Come with me.
The neighbor,
they tied her up, alone,
in the back bathroom,
and the rest, all together,
the husband with the children.
What a horror story!
How can anyone
do something like that to a mom?
That's evil, Estela.
Or it's confusion.
He was a very young boy.
He still had a baby face.
Oh, we can't even be safe
in our own home anymore.
I don't know how you dared
to leave the room.
You were really brave.
But something could've happened to you.
Luckily, nothing did.
Is there any boiling water left?
Yes. Would you like some tea?
Yes, please.
I'm on it.
Hello. Are you okay?
I just wanted to talk to her.
You sent me less than what we agreed on.
Yes, I haven't been paid yet.
They won't pay you in advance
even with your mother sick?
How long is your leave?
Ten days. I can't ask for more.
All right.
I'm sorting things out.
And it's not a "leave." It's my vacation.
I'll make it up to you for all those days.
Let me know tomorrow
when she's awake, okay?
Maybe she'll sleep late.
She didn't want to eat.
She didn't want anything.
What?
No barking here, okay?
Put them in the hall closet instead.
For safety.
Don't let Julia in here, okay?
Where's Julia?
She's not here.
Julia?
Were you scared by the thief?
No.
He was more afraid.
Imagine, entering a house
where you don't know anyone.
It's night. Everything's dark.
There are people screaming, scared.
The police are looking for you.
No.
He was scared. He was shaking.
This house is scary.
Good thing the thief didn't go
in your parents' room.
He would've come across
your grandma's portrait.
My grandma.
Because she's like this.
-I'm scared of my grandma.
-Yes, it would have scared him more.
A dog!
Come! Come!
What's its name?
His name is Dad.
Is that why you had the door closed?
Yes.
He reminds me of a dog
that belonged to the Jaimes,
when I was little.
I lived near two boys my age.
One was named Jaime,
and the other one was his twin,
who we also called Jaime
to avoid a mix-up.
And I liked the Jaimes.
I gave them kisses.
-I gave a kiss to one--
-How did you kiss them?
Like this.
And then I kissed the other Jaime.
And then the Jaimes kissed each other,
like they were kissing a mirror.
You're so squeamish.
It was nice.
It's my turn to drive.
Come.
Where do you want me to take you?
Home.
Weren't we supposed to meet today at 8:00?
Yes, it's 8:00.
The clocks changed, right?
It's just that I don't like
daylight savings time, so
I don't adjust my clock.
That means I gotta go. Bye-bye.
Hey!
What?
-What was that?
-"Hey," what?
What a lame first kiss.
"Lame" this, "lame" that.
Estela!
-Help me, please.
-Yeah.
There, it seems.
Yes, that was it.
Good.
How did it go, Ivn?
Good. I already spoke
with the security company.
After the New Year,
they'll come to install the cameras.
-Okay.
-Then they'll install the electric fence.
They'll cover all the vulnerabilities.
-Thank you very much, Ivn.
-You're welcome.
Finally.
Hey, the girl,
has she learned to swim yet?
She makes it to the edge by herself.
She knows how to get out.
That's great!
So with a little more training,
she'll be able to represent us
at the Olympics.
But what do you see on the street?
-Nothing.
-Nothing.
Nothing? No.
There's always something on the street.
And that's where the danger lies.
That's where the criminals hide.
Ivn, you'll traumatize them more.
Okay, kids, go home.
-Thank you so much.
-Oh, Ivn.
Yes?
Add me to the security chat, please.
Sure.
At your service. Let's see. What is it?
-Four
-Four
-four, two, two
-four, two, two
nine, two
-nine, two
-eight, nine.
-eight, nine.
-Estela Garca.
There, from the Jensens'.
What are you feeling?
A cold sensation on my back, here.
Okay, but what did the doctor say?
Oh, Lita!
They know what they're doing.
It's because you just had surgery.
You'll feel better in no time.
Where's the girl?
Hi, Julia!
Hello!
Does the dog watch TV too?
A man set his body on fire.
Oh, Lita, don't let the girl
watch those things.
She'll have bad dreams.
She wants to watch it.
Stubborn, like you.
Well, that's why you're alone.
I'm not alone.
No?
Oh, really?
PROTECTED NEIGHBORHOOD
Straight, straight, lowering your leg.
There's no wall anymore.
The other one.
One, two, three.
All the way up. That's it!
I wanna take him to Chilo.
He'd be happy, running free,
annoying the pigs, eating a rabbit.
When are you leaving?
Not sure.
My mom seems better now.
But some days,
I call her and she's not so good.
It's not linear.
Will you sell us a beer?
What have I told you?
Come on. What's the big deal?
-Dad!
-I already told you no.
-Just sell it to them so they'll go away.
-Let's go, Dad.
This time of day
is no good for little kids.
Dad!
Dad.
Awesome!
-Dad.
-Thanks, chief.
A nun yelled at me,
and with all my strength,
I took the plate of stew
and threw it
onto the Mother Superior's face.
Pow.
Well, that same afternoon
my mom had to pick me up.
All the way back home,
she didn't say a word.
And when we were getting home,
she started to laugh.
To laugh and laugh and laugh.
"All the stew on her face," she said.
Dying laughing.
Well, my mom had to go back to work.
And then she said to me, "Estelita,
you'll have to learn
to take care of yourself."
And she left, and there I was,
at 13 years old, about to turn 14,
alone.
Yes, sir?
Dad!
How can I help you?
It's late. Let's go.
Hey, what if I come by at 12:00
and we have a beer on the side street?
I can tell you're bored.
She's the only granddaughter they have,
and they didn't even come
for her birthday.
Hey, Estela.
But
Hey, saying that,
classic favorite child, huh?
Girl, go to the country for a while.
Oh, you almost knocked it over!
Are you okay?
Let's go.
Hi, Carlos. I won't be able to today.
See you tomorrow on my day off, please?
Look.
My song!
No! No! No!
spectacular,
one of the best in the world,
in Latin America.
And now we're almost
one minute to midnight,
so you can say goodbye
to all the bad things you went through,
keep the good memories,
and prepare to take on a wonderful year.
Another year ends,
and the show's about to start.
-Mayor, let's see the lights go out.
-Nine! Eight!
-Seven! Six!
-Seven! Six!
-Five! Four!
-Five! Four!
-Three! Two! One!
-Three! Two! One!
Happy New Year!
-Happy New Year!
-Julia!
Julia!
Happy New Year!
Bring us luck! Bring us luck!
Happy New Year, Estela!
Cheers!
Happy New Year, honey!
I hope it's a beautiful one.
Estela!
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
-Best wishes. I hope it'll be a good year.
-Happy New Year.
I hope it'll be a good one.
-Same to you.
-Thanks.
Julia!
Julia!
Tell her to come!
Julia!
Julia!
Bring her!
Come!
Come!
-Julia!
-Julia!
Hello! Hello, sweetie!
Hello!
Happy New Year.
-How are you?
-Good.
Thank you.
Okay, okay, okay.
Is that your room?
Yes, yes.
-Bye.
-Bye-bye.
Let's go. Come on.
Come on!
If you're not going to use it,
give it to me.
What good is it to you?
I don't want to fall in love.
Me neither.
And why do you do that?
Just in case.
Are you dating someone?
Who told you I'm dating someone?
I want to go with you.
My uncle told me we'd go horseback riding.
That's not going to happen.
Your uncle won't be able to take you.
I don't care
that he's institutionalized and crazy.
Who told you that your uncle's crazy?
Where did you get that from?
She's clearly not deaf.
-Okay. Go play with your dad.
-Let's go with your daddy.
Estela!
I need to take off.
But today's my day off.
I have to be at the hospital
in 18 minutes.
The patient is unstable,
and now she needs emergency surgery.
I'll be out all night.
We'll square this away later, okay?
Hello!
-Hi, Estela.
-Hi, Estela.
-I want to ask you a question.
-Okay.
Can Julia come to a sleepover
at my house tonight?
We'll buy pizzas for everybody.
Yes, we're having pizza today.
Julia isn't here.
She went out with her mother.
So it'll have to be another day.
Come on, Juanita.
Thank you. We'll coordinate.
-What topping do you like?
-She's lying!
Lord God in heaven.
That's not what funerals are like.
The dead don't speak.
Evil be gone.
Be gone. Be gone. Open your mouth.
Little brat!
Was he bit by a mouse?
No, Julia, no.
No, Julia, no! No!
Get out!
Get out!
It hurts.
We'll give her a rabies shot,
just in case.
Mom, hold her arm.
That's it. Just a second.
I'm going to get the medication.
Take that helmet off, Julia.
Take it off, Julia.
It's dangerous, Carlos.
But she came by motorcycle.
It's not safe. Let's go.
-Estela.
-Good morning.
Good morning.
The girl had a
a complication during surgery.
Septic embolism.
She died during the operation.
She died?
We revived her for more than half an hour
after the operation, but
she never left the operating room.
Well, you did your best.
I need to sleep.
Please don't let Julia wake me up. Okay?
Okay.
I want him to come.
It wasn't his fault. It was the mouse's.
Don't repeat that again.
I want him to come.
No, there's no dog.
There never was. He doesn't exist.
Come, Julia.
Let's watch TV.
I don't want to watch TV.
I'll lend you my amulet.
That's for adults, not for kids.
Mom!
I'm home.
Where's my Chinita? Where is she?
Hi, sweetie. I brought you something.
It arrived safely. Grandma sent you this.
You use perfume now?
Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Were you sleeping?
Yeah.
You stole my Alprazolam.
Two. But I'm much better now.
I'm glad.
How did everything go there?
Great. We had breakfast,
all together at 7:00 in the morning.
Just like when we were kids before school.
Window or hallway?
First floor, and far from the bathroom.
Done.
Thank you very much.
With the screen like this,
it wouldn't let me press "next."
You slept here?
The homeowner is back, so while he's here
It's just a few days.
They lend me a little room back there.
The dog hasn't turned up?
No, but he always comes back.
He must be mad at me.
Thank you.
Thieves are very slippery.
Okay. Take note.
Three wires above, one below.
At 12,000 volts.
How many volts?
-12,000.
-12,000 volts?
Yes. So no one can pass.
-I just want it to work well, that's all.
-It will work well. Very well.
It burns.
If it burns, it means it's healing.
You'll be all better to go to the lake.
What would you prefer?
A cruise
with ghosts, and you're the only one alive
or the beach, with your favorite person
surrounded by
killer sharks?
I'd rather be with you,
at the lake.
I'm going to visit my mom first,
and then I'm going there.
I already have the tickets.
Deal.
We're going to rest so much.
We're going to get sick of sleeping.
We're going to stay on the boat,
floating until late.
Looking at the stars.
Hi. Is Estela home?
How could I tell you
something like that by phone?
The neighbor found her.
Don't be mad at me.
I had left for Punta Arenas for work.
Things are very bad.
There's no money for anything.
Where is she?
She was buried.
Pedro is taking care of it.
He finally turned up.
Go.
We ordered pizza.
You'd better eat.
Resting helps a lot.
Oh, you're back!
We just came for a little while.
I'm being covered.
So spoiled.
Okay.
Are you better?
Yes.
Bye.
Bye.
Let's record her, the author.
Enough.
She's hiding.
I can see your face there.
The actress.
Would you rather your dream home,
with your own beach, or
your jet,
private jet?
It's your house and can fly anywhere.
What do you prefer?
What do you prefer?
Without help, it's not a vacation for me.
Right.
I liked the one that covered for you.
I think she was the sister
of the one who usually works with you
and worked as a substitute.
She was really nice, remember?
Her.
Yes, her.
What? Estela isn't coming?
-No, Chinita, she's not.
-She told me
Estela asked not to go to Caburgua,
so we'll have to give her time.
Okay, I'll call you.
Liar!
Julia.
Ugly!
No.
Fake!
Julia.
-You told me you were going!
-Julia.
Idiot!
Julia!
What's wrong with you?
Sorry, Estela.
Hey, what's wrong with you?
-What's wrong with you?
-Idiot!
-Stop!
-No!
No. No. Get out!
Get out! Get out!
How did you get in?
Get out! Get out!
Dad!
-No.
-Dad!
Julia?
Whose dog is that?
Come here. Come.
Julia, come here.
Why do you know that dog?
Why do you know him?
Because it bit me.
That dog bit you?
Yes, and she took me
to the hospital on a motorcycle.
-She took you to hospital on a motorcycle?
-Yes.
Get out, dog! Get out! Go home!
Estela, open up.
Estela, open up.
Open the door.
Estela, open up.
Look at me.
What did I do to you?
You really thought
she wasn't going to tell me?
I'm her mom.
Get that stray out of the house now,
and pack your things.
Go away, dog!
Get out, dog!
-I told you to get that dog out!
-Out!
-To your room!
-Get out of here!
Out!
I don't want him to leave!
Out!
No!
DANGER
ELECTRIC FENCE
No, Estela, don't touch it!
You could be electrocuted!
Ivn!
Ivn, help!
Ivn!
Ivn, come here, please!
Ivn, come!
Stay here.
Estela, no!
Julia!
It's okay, Estela.
It's over now.
It's okay.
Hello, Ivn.
I don't work there anymore.
Yes, I'm already leaving.
What?
What happened to the girl?
Sir, stop!
I need to get off!
by yourself, okay?
-No! I don't want to!
-Relax.
-Everything's fine.
-No!
SWIM TO ME
Let's go!
Okay, Julia, let's go.
Swim this way.
Let's go.
Legs like tree trunks.
Don't bend your knees, Julia.
Legs outstretched.
Kick hard.
Give me your hand.
Okay, come here.
Come here.
All right, let's go.
-No.
-One more time. Ready?
-No.
-Don't worry. I learned the same way.
Give me your hand. Come here.
See? I told you it's fine.
Come on, Cristbal. Leave her alone.
Shall we?
Estela.
Estela!
Estela, are you there?
She's not trapped. She's clinging.
Julia, it's not funny.
Julia.
It's not funny at all. Enough.
I'm tired.
Come on. Oh, sweetie!
Julia, enough.
Stop. I have to work.
I'm tired.
-Estela can braid your hair, sweetie.
-Hello?
Please connect me to Pediatrics
on the fourth floor.
Yes. A seven-year-old girl.
A scoliosis patient.
I was told she had a slight fever.
Okay. Let's get a referral
from Infectious Diseases, please.
Shall we go clean our ears
with cotton swabs?
You don't want cotton swabs.
Then put up with it.
-All that should get thrown away.
-Okay.
-All that there. That box too.
-Yeah.
He still hasn't thrown away
his mom's clothes.
Look!
Look what I found. The swimming cap.
Sweetie, I promise I'll buy you a new one.
Hey, Chinita.
Look at me.
I wanted to go with you,
but I won't be able to.
Okay?
-But Estela will go with you.
-I'm on vacation.
Can I start another day?
No. There was only one spot left,
and I had to run to reserve it.
Put it on her, okay?
Chinita, look at me.
At Caburgua Lake,
the two of us will practice together.
How much longer until we go?
Besides, you need to go out,
have a good time, learn things.
You can't spend all day
cooped up in the house with Estela.
It's my turn to sit down.
No.
-See you later.
-Bye!
Yes?
I'm here with her.
Okay, Mom.
If you want to dunk them
We blow
And when the child goes
closes their eyes,
we dunk them and lift them out.
Okay?
That's it. Good.
It hurts.
It hurts!
Hey this water is full of lice.
Who's going to get them off you later? Me?
No.
If you put it over the back first,
it's much easier.
Vicente.
Let's see.
Faster.
Everyone follow Miss Natalia. Okay?
That way, over there.
No running, okay? Take it easy.
Moms and Dads,
I invite you to go to the cafeteria.
-You can have breakfast.
-Go on.
Everything okay, Julia?
Take your time. At your own pace.
Whenever you want.
Okay.
Okay, kids, let's go in the water?
Come on, Julia.
You go first.
But, hey
Okay. Everybody else, into the water.
C'mon, kids!
What happened?
You don't want to go in the water?
Let's go together. Come with me.
Everybody's in the water,
all your friends.
It's all right. You're gonna learn, okay?
Come on. Let's jump in together.
On the count of three. One, two, three!
Ma'am? Excuse me. You can't come in here.
Ma'am, no
On the count of one
Julia, are you okay? Do you want to leave?
Shall we? Let's go.
But, hey
She has to stay
until the end of the class.
We came for nothing.
Does that seem right to you?
Now you'll have to come with me
on some errands.
What will you tell your parents?
That I don't want to swim.
But you have to learn, Julia,
sooner or later.
Where did you learn to swim?
Did they force you?
So dramatic about everything.
I'll teach you how to swim.
End of story.
What about the ice cream?
You didn't even put a toe in the water.
Okay, let's go.
Stay here, Julia.
Hi.
-Good afternoon.
-For Mara Rosa Torres.
Perfect.
She can withdraw it as of tomorrow
at the Castro branch.
-She must give the number on the ticket.
-Okay.
-Ma'am!
-Huh?
Your ticket.
-Next. Good afternoon.
-How are you?
Julia!
What did I say about wandering off?
Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Last one.
Shall we?
I'll buy you something.
One thing.
Something useful.
Put that back. I said one thing.
The blue one for me
and the pink one for you.
-I don't like pink.
-Neither do I.
The first classes are always like this.
They're always difficult.
Horrible.
Well, but you'll have to get used to it.
That's it.
What happened, Estela?
The water was very cold.
The teacher had too many students.
It could be dangerous.
That club is more rundown every day.
They told me there would be
maximum five kids per class.
There were lots more. Like 43 or more.
Sweetie, by the time we're at the lake,
you'll be swimming.
If the children don't have the confidence
to enter the water,
it's better to do so at a depth
that allows them to touch the floor.
The best exercises to learn to swim
are to put one's head under
and exhale through
It's a video call, Mom.
I can only see your hair.
Turn the camera around.
Look. See?
You can't eat vegetables here.
They taste like nothing.
That's so nice.
Have the bus tickets gone up yet?
Hey, don't buy them for the holidays,
because they get too expensive.
Why would you come for so few days?
What for, I say?
Sonia started working at the salmon farm.
She says it's not bad.
Forget it. You're good there.
Your cousin gets paid next to nothing,
if at all.
Plus, they poison those poor creatures.
Then they get sick and die.
and four criminals entered.
Based on how they looked,
and how they moved, I think
The store I shop at was robbed.
You get used to everything.
They'll kill you for a cell phone.
They break into houses at night.
That's who we are.
That's not who we are, Mom.
Juanita!
Borja!
Come here!
Kids, time to go home!
-Hi, Estela.
-Estela, look!
Can we get in?
-Let's see.
-Where'd these pirates come from?
Borja always goes up first.
Okay, easy. Slow down.
We'll be here, Estela, look.
Two weeks at Caburgua Lake.
Yes, but it's baby-sized.
-Like it, guys?
-This is the way down.
Come on. That's it!
One, two, three,
four, five, six,
seven, eight
Rest.
At least I'm getting better.
-Better than nothing.
-What do you mean, "better than nothing"?
Better than nothing.
Five times ten
Five like ten times five
Twelve, like thirteen
Twelve or thirteen hours
Yes.
You make me last more and more.
Okay, we just have to heat this stuff up.
It heats up, and then it'll work.
Feel anything?
Yes.
Smile. You're not being filmed.
Are you new?
No, I'm already 40.
Not that new and not that promising.
Just kidding. I just started last week.
A red one, please.
He doesn't like when people spend money.
He's an austere dog.
You work around here?
Me too.
I mean, if you come by again,
we may see each other or something.
I have plenty of time.
My pleasure.
Go home.
Hey, slow down.
You're supposed to enjoy the food.
You filthy damn mutt.
No barking here.
Shoo!
Shoo! Shoo!
Oh, Estela, I'm exhausted.
I'd be happy to skip this opening.
Mara, it's your friend's event.
You rushed me.
It's 7:30, and it says
it takes 47 minutes to get there.
Plus time to park.
Julia, stand up, please. You have feet.
Stop crawling.
If she doesn't eat, no TV.
Okay.
Curator?
Or artist?
That one.
Okay.
Julia.
Julia.
Julia.
When I move, she keeps looking at me.
Okay. She can't look at you now.
Upside down, she can't go anywhere.
Okay, go to sleep.
Okay.
Get some rest.
What is it, Sonia? I can't talk.
Hold on. Your mom.
What happened?
I don't know exactly
what happened to her, but
I mean, I couldn't talk to her.
-But she had a fracture.
-Where is she?
They sat her up, and they shouldn't have.
And?
-Who saw her? Did you talk to her?
-I didn't see her.
-The neighbor.
-And did you see how she was?
-No, she found her on the ground.
-Were you there or?
Did you touch her? What did she break?
She grabbed a branch, the branch broke,
she fell out of the chair,
and broke her hip.
She's in the hospital for surgery.
And can you stay with her
until I get there?
Yes, I'll be with her. Don't worry.
-I mean, until you come.
-I'll have a talk here and sort it out.
Okay.
What's fun about smoking?
What are you doing here?
No, no. Go to bed.
No minors allowed in here.
Your parents don't like
you to come in this room.
I'm scared.
There's still things above the ceiling.
They're called stars.
I mean it.
They're mice running around
in the ceiling.
Not even one cigarette in peace.
they're called antlers, not horns,
because they grow them out over and over.
Close your eyes.
Only owls don't sleep.
When I was your age,
I slept completely still.
Like a mummy.
My mom and I had to share the bed.
Today, she fell and she was alone.
That's how she is.
You never know.
She says she doesn't want me to go,
but she does.
Hey, you!
Hey!
Hey!
Are you older than my mom?
We're about the same.
Are you going to die when she does?
First, my grandma died.
Nena.
Then, my dad's going to die,
then my mom or you, and then me.
No.
Unbearable girls live a long time.
Only the good die young.
Cristbal.
What?
Estela needs to talk to us.
About what?
I guess her mom's issue is serious.
Your mom is having surgery?
Yes.
Will you have to travel, Estela?
Yes. She's supposed to get
a hip replacement tomorrow.
Well, hip replacements are
a routine surgery nowadays.
Complications are extremely rare. So
I can't, Cristbal.
I have to spend all day in the workshop
to wrap a ton of pieces.
I have to deliver on Monday. I can't.
Yes, I know.
Estela, what if we pay for a flight
and you travel on Monday?
That might be better.
Look, if you go now,
they won't even let you in.
That's true.
I think it's better
to get there for the post-op.
That way, you'll be there
for the follow-ups, aftercare
Leave my drawer alone.
She's in surgery right now.
Hi, Estela.
She just woke up from the anesthesia.
She woke up a little sad,
but they say that's normal.
Is she okay?
I WANT TO DRINK FROM YOUR LIPS
TO QUENCH MY SOUL'S THIRSWhat's this?
It's something that brings you luck,
that protects you.
For what?
It's an amulet
to keep you from falling in love.
Why not fall in love?
To not have a bad time.
It's nice. Will you give it to me?
No, it's mine.
You talk to the kids, okay?
I'm not in the mood.
No, leave it!
No!
-Stop!
-Okay, stop. You two have to stop.
No, no, no.
I want another sheet.
I want them to leave.
I heard you.
Julia.
You can't lock yourself in again.
Are you going back to your mom's?
If I go, who will take care of you?
Want to get up?
Oh, your brother called me this morning.
He showed up?
Don't start.
You two are even.
No, Mom, I didn't disappear.
I came here for work.
And I'll visit as soon
as Sonia runs out of days off,
so that we take turns providing care.
I already told you, I'm fine now.
Save those days for vacation.
Okay, Mom.
Let's talk tomorrow.
Kisses. Bye.
Look what she brought you!
-Look, dog.
-He asks about you every day.
But we don't know your name.
Estela.
Carlos. Nice to meet you.
Does he break into your house too?
Yes, but it's not my house.
Quite the beggar, huh?
Going from house to house.
Where are you from?
Chilo.
Chilo!
How is it?
More trees than people.
Maple, oak, elm, myrtle,
laurel.
And you, where do you live?
Here.
I'm taking care
of a friend's house around here.
For a few months.
Just a moment.
Here, here.
When I moved to Santiago,
I thought the air smelled like dust,
that it was very hot,
and that everything was two colors,
yellow or brown.
Yellow trees, brown hills.
Yellow buildings, brown squares.
Hey, what are you doing? No, don't.
If they see you smoking, they'll fire me.
How could they fire you? Where would
they get a replacement this time of year?
"Hey, boss."
"Are we going to work
on the Day of the Dead?"
Is this a joke?
"What, are you dead? No?"
"Then what?"
"Off to work with you!"
Not funny.
-I'm the nanny.
-Take those off.
Take them off now.
Take them off, Julia!
Take them off!
Come on, Julia, take them off.
One, two, three, down.
One, two, three, up.
One, two, three, down.
One, two, three, up.
One, two, three, down.
That's it.
Puff up your chest like a pigeon.
Pigeons don't swim.
I've been here for like an hour.
Can I have a break?
You're so stubborn
to be already up and about, Mom.
Yes, I'm going right back to bed.
I was just feeding the cat.
Merry Christmas, Mom.
-Are you doing anything there tonight?
-Estela!
Mommy, I'm hanging up now.
I'll call you later. Okay?
Bye.
-Hi. Good evening. Did something happen?
-Good evening.
Were you the one who saw the guy
lurking around? Did you call?
No, I don't even know the number to call.
Everyone's asleep here.
It's 18-18.
18-18. Thank you.
I'll check across the street.
COMMUNITY PATROL
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Open it!
-Let's see. What is it?
-Ta-da!
-What is it?
-Look how pretty!
-What is it?
-It's a parrot!
-A parrot. Look, it's got something here.
-No, look.
-What's that?
-There, sweetie.
-There, let's see, look.
-Jingle bells.
Jingle bells.
Santa is dumb.
Santa is dumb.
Say something.
Julia is pretty.
Julia is pretty.
You like it?
Okay. Estela.
Estela's gift.
-This is embarrassing!
-What could it be?
Thank you very much.
Open it. Open it.
Look, a towel. How nice.
It's got a gift receipt.
-If it doesn't fit, or to exchange it.
-A swimsuit!
It's perfect for Caburgua.
Look, what a beautiful color.
Thank you.
You know I wouldn't go in the lake
even if you dragged me, though.
Okay, I'm heading out now.
Otherwise, I'll hit traffic. Okay?
Good.
Estela, go with him.
Last time I had him get a cake,
it got there in pieces.
-Hello.
-Hello.
I want to find my path in your open hands
And for you to feel like a woman
Only when you're with me
-What's this slum tune?
-I feel like having you tonight
I feel like having you tonight
Since when do you sing?
-Okay.
-Let's go. One, two, three!
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three, four!
Oh, almost.
Almost.
-Where's the exit?
-Huh?
Where's the exit?
-You want me to stay here?
-No.
Where's the exit?
Let's go.
Left wall, behind the pool,
there's an abandoned house.
After that, I don't know.
No, no, no.
-No. Please take everything!
-It's me.
-Take everything!
-It's Estela!
-Open up!
-It's me!
Open up!
He left.
-Close it. Close it.
-Yes, yes.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
-Lock the door.
-He came here fleeing the house next door.
-Listen, is everything locked?
-Yes, everything's locked.
Call the police.
Yes, I called, but he broke my phone.
I can't see anything.
-Call security, then.
-Yeah, I already called.
I can't see anything now.
Listen.
-Who should I talk to, to tell them
-I can't now. Wait a second.
-Good evening.
-Hello. Good evening.
Come with me.
The neighbor,
they tied her up, alone,
in the back bathroom,
and the rest, all together,
the husband with the children.
What a horror story!
How can anyone
do something like that to a mom?
That's evil, Estela.
Or it's confusion.
He was a very young boy.
He still had a baby face.
Oh, we can't even be safe
in our own home anymore.
I don't know how you dared
to leave the room.
You were really brave.
But something could've happened to you.
Luckily, nothing did.
Is there any boiling water left?
Yes. Would you like some tea?
Yes, please.
I'm on it.
Hello. Are you okay?
I just wanted to talk to her.
You sent me less than what we agreed on.
Yes, I haven't been paid yet.
They won't pay you in advance
even with your mother sick?
How long is your leave?
Ten days. I can't ask for more.
All right.
I'm sorting things out.
And it's not a "leave." It's my vacation.
I'll make it up to you for all those days.
Let me know tomorrow
when she's awake, okay?
Maybe she'll sleep late.
She didn't want to eat.
She didn't want anything.
What?
No barking here, okay?
Put them in the hall closet instead.
For safety.
Don't let Julia in here, okay?
Where's Julia?
She's not here.
Julia?
Were you scared by the thief?
No.
He was more afraid.
Imagine, entering a house
where you don't know anyone.
It's night. Everything's dark.
There are people screaming, scared.
The police are looking for you.
No.
He was scared. He was shaking.
This house is scary.
Good thing the thief didn't go
in your parents' room.
He would've come across
your grandma's portrait.
My grandma.
Because she's like this.
-I'm scared of my grandma.
-Yes, it would have scared him more.
A dog!
Come! Come!
What's its name?
His name is Dad.
Is that why you had the door closed?
Yes.
He reminds me of a dog
that belonged to the Jaimes,
when I was little.
I lived near two boys my age.
One was named Jaime,
and the other one was his twin,
who we also called Jaime
to avoid a mix-up.
And I liked the Jaimes.
I gave them kisses.
-I gave a kiss to one--
-How did you kiss them?
Like this.
And then I kissed the other Jaime.
And then the Jaimes kissed each other,
like they were kissing a mirror.
You're so squeamish.
It was nice.
It's my turn to drive.
Come.
Where do you want me to take you?
Home.
Weren't we supposed to meet today at 8:00?
Yes, it's 8:00.
The clocks changed, right?
It's just that I don't like
daylight savings time, so
I don't adjust my clock.
That means I gotta go. Bye-bye.
Hey!
What?
-What was that?
-"Hey," what?
What a lame first kiss.
"Lame" this, "lame" that.
Estela!
-Help me, please.
-Yeah.
There, it seems.
Yes, that was it.
Good.
How did it go, Ivn?
Good. I already spoke
with the security company.
After the New Year,
they'll come to install the cameras.
-Okay.
-Then they'll install the electric fence.
They'll cover all the vulnerabilities.
-Thank you very much, Ivn.
-You're welcome.
Finally.
Hey, the girl,
has she learned to swim yet?
She makes it to the edge by herself.
She knows how to get out.
That's great!
So with a little more training,
she'll be able to represent us
at the Olympics.
But what do you see on the street?
-Nothing.
-Nothing.
Nothing? No.
There's always something on the street.
And that's where the danger lies.
That's where the criminals hide.
Ivn, you'll traumatize them more.
Okay, kids, go home.
-Thank you so much.
-Oh, Ivn.
Yes?
Add me to the security chat, please.
Sure.
At your service. Let's see. What is it?
-Four
-Four
-four, two, two
-four, two, two
nine, two
-nine, two
-eight, nine.
-eight, nine.
-Estela Garca.
There, from the Jensens'.
What are you feeling?
A cold sensation on my back, here.
Okay, but what did the doctor say?
Oh, Lita!
They know what they're doing.
It's because you just had surgery.
You'll feel better in no time.
Where's the girl?
Hi, Julia!
Hello!
Does the dog watch TV too?
A man set his body on fire.
Oh, Lita, don't let the girl
watch those things.
She'll have bad dreams.
She wants to watch it.
Stubborn, like you.
Well, that's why you're alone.
I'm not alone.
No?
Oh, really?
PROTECTED NEIGHBORHOOD
Straight, straight, lowering your leg.
There's no wall anymore.
The other one.
One, two, three.
All the way up. That's it!
I wanna take him to Chilo.
He'd be happy, running free,
annoying the pigs, eating a rabbit.
When are you leaving?
Not sure.
My mom seems better now.
But some days,
I call her and she's not so good.
It's not linear.
Will you sell us a beer?
What have I told you?
Come on. What's the big deal?
-Dad!
-I already told you no.
-Just sell it to them so they'll go away.
-Let's go, Dad.
This time of day
is no good for little kids.
Dad!
Dad.
Awesome!
-Dad.
-Thanks, chief.
A nun yelled at me,
and with all my strength,
I took the plate of stew
and threw it
onto the Mother Superior's face.
Pow.
Well, that same afternoon
my mom had to pick me up.
All the way back home,
she didn't say a word.
And when we were getting home,
she started to laugh.
To laugh and laugh and laugh.
"All the stew on her face," she said.
Dying laughing.
Well, my mom had to go back to work.
And then she said to me, "Estelita,
you'll have to learn
to take care of yourself."
And she left, and there I was,
at 13 years old, about to turn 14,
alone.
Yes, sir?
Dad!
How can I help you?
It's late. Let's go.
Hey, what if I come by at 12:00
and we have a beer on the side street?
I can tell you're bored.
She's the only granddaughter they have,
and they didn't even come
for her birthday.
Hey, Estela.
But
Hey, saying that,
classic favorite child, huh?
Girl, go to the country for a while.
Oh, you almost knocked it over!
Are you okay?
Let's go.
Hi, Carlos. I won't be able to today.
See you tomorrow on my day off, please?
Look.
My song!
No! No! No!
spectacular,
one of the best in the world,
in Latin America.
And now we're almost
one minute to midnight,
so you can say goodbye
to all the bad things you went through,
keep the good memories,
and prepare to take on a wonderful year.
Another year ends,
and the show's about to start.
-Mayor, let's see the lights go out.
-Nine! Eight!
-Seven! Six!
-Seven! Six!
-Five! Four!
-Five! Four!
-Three! Two! One!
-Three! Two! One!
Happy New Year!
-Happy New Year!
-Julia!
Julia!
Happy New Year!
Bring us luck! Bring us luck!
Happy New Year, Estela!
Cheers!
Happy New Year, honey!
I hope it's a beautiful one.
Estela!
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
-Best wishes. I hope it'll be a good year.
-Happy New Year.
I hope it'll be a good one.
-Same to you.
-Thanks.
Julia!
Julia!
Tell her to come!
Julia!
Julia!
Bring her!
Come!
Come!
-Julia!
-Julia!
Hello! Hello, sweetie!
Hello!
Happy New Year.
-How are you?
-Good.
Thank you.
Okay, okay, okay.
Is that your room?
Yes, yes.
-Bye.
-Bye-bye.
Let's go. Come on.
Come on!
If you're not going to use it,
give it to me.
What good is it to you?
I don't want to fall in love.
Me neither.
And why do you do that?
Just in case.
Are you dating someone?
Who told you I'm dating someone?
I want to go with you.
My uncle told me we'd go horseback riding.
That's not going to happen.
Your uncle won't be able to take you.
I don't care
that he's institutionalized and crazy.
Who told you that your uncle's crazy?
Where did you get that from?
She's clearly not deaf.
-Okay. Go play with your dad.
-Let's go with your daddy.
Estela!
I need to take off.
But today's my day off.
I have to be at the hospital
in 18 minutes.
The patient is unstable,
and now she needs emergency surgery.
I'll be out all night.
We'll square this away later, okay?
Hello!
-Hi, Estela.
-Hi, Estela.
-I want to ask you a question.
-Okay.
Can Julia come to a sleepover
at my house tonight?
We'll buy pizzas for everybody.
Yes, we're having pizza today.
Julia isn't here.
She went out with her mother.
So it'll have to be another day.
Come on, Juanita.
Thank you. We'll coordinate.
-What topping do you like?
-She's lying!
Lord God in heaven.
That's not what funerals are like.
The dead don't speak.
Evil be gone.
Be gone. Be gone. Open your mouth.
Little brat!
Was he bit by a mouse?
No, Julia, no.
No, Julia, no! No!
Get out!
Get out!
It hurts.
We'll give her a rabies shot,
just in case.
Mom, hold her arm.
That's it. Just a second.
I'm going to get the medication.
Take that helmet off, Julia.
Take it off, Julia.
It's dangerous, Carlos.
But she came by motorcycle.
It's not safe. Let's go.
-Estela.
-Good morning.
Good morning.
The girl had a
a complication during surgery.
Septic embolism.
She died during the operation.
She died?
We revived her for more than half an hour
after the operation, but
she never left the operating room.
Well, you did your best.
I need to sleep.
Please don't let Julia wake me up. Okay?
Okay.
I want him to come.
It wasn't his fault. It was the mouse's.
Don't repeat that again.
I want him to come.
No, there's no dog.
There never was. He doesn't exist.
Come, Julia.
Let's watch TV.
I don't want to watch TV.
I'll lend you my amulet.
That's for adults, not for kids.
Mom!
I'm home.
Where's my Chinita? Where is she?
Hi, sweetie. I brought you something.
It arrived safely. Grandma sent you this.
You use perfume now?
Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Were you sleeping?
Yeah.
You stole my Alprazolam.
Two. But I'm much better now.
I'm glad.
How did everything go there?
Great. We had breakfast,
all together at 7:00 in the morning.
Just like when we were kids before school.
Window or hallway?
First floor, and far from the bathroom.
Done.
Thank you very much.
With the screen like this,
it wouldn't let me press "next."
You slept here?
The homeowner is back, so while he's here
It's just a few days.
They lend me a little room back there.
The dog hasn't turned up?
No, but he always comes back.
He must be mad at me.
Thank you.
Thieves are very slippery.
Okay. Take note.
Three wires above, one below.
At 12,000 volts.
How many volts?
-12,000.
-12,000 volts?
Yes. So no one can pass.
-I just want it to work well, that's all.
-It will work well. Very well.
It burns.
If it burns, it means it's healing.
You'll be all better to go to the lake.
What would you prefer?
A cruise
with ghosts, and you're the only one alive
or the beach, with your favorite person
surrounded by
killer sharks?
I'd rather be with you,
at the lake.
I'm going to visit my mom first,
and then I'm going there.
I already have the tickets.
Deal.
We're going to rest so much.
We're going to get sick of sleeping.
We're going to stay on the boat,
floating until late.
Looking at the stars.
Hi. Is Estela home?
How could I tell you
something like that by phone?
The neighbor found her.
Don't be mad at me.
I had left for Punta Arenas for work.
Things are very bad.
There's no money for anything.
Where is she?
She was buried.
Pedro is taking care of it.
He finally turned up.
Go.
We ordered pizza.
You'd better eat.
Resting helps a lot.
Oh, you're back!
We just came for a little while.
I'm being covered.
So spoiled.
Okay.
Are you better?
Yes.
Bye.
Bye.
Let's record her, the author.
Enough.
She's hiding.
I can see your face there.
The actress.
Would you rather your dream home,
with your own beach, or
your jet,
private jet?
It's your house and can fly anywhere.
What do you prefer?
What do you prefer?
Without help, it's not a vacation for me.
Right.
I liked the one that covered for you.
I think she was the sister
of the one who usually works with you
and worked as a substitute.
She was really nice, remember?
Her.
Yes, her.
What? Estela isn't coming?
-No, Chinita, she's not.
-She told me
Estela asked not to go to Caburgua,
so we'll have to give her time.
Okay, I'll call you.
Liar!
Julia.
Ugly!
No.
Fake!
Julia.
-You told me you were going!
-Julia.
Idiot!
Julia!
What's wrong with you?
Sorry, Estela.
Hey, what's wrong with you?
-What's wrong with you?
-Idiot!
-Stop!
-No!
No. No. Get out!
Get out! Get out!
How did you get in?
Get out! Get out!
Dad!
-No.
-Dad!
Julia?
Whose dog is that?
Come here. Come.
Julia, come here.
Why do you know that dog?
Why do you know him?
Because it bit me.
That dog bit you?
Yes, and she took me
to the hospital on a motorcycle.
-She took you to hospital on a motorcycle?
-Yes.
Get out, dog! Get out! Go home!
Estela, open up.
Estela, open up.
Open the door.
Estela, open up.
Look at me.
What did I do to you?
You really thought
she wasn't going to tell me?
I'm her mom.
Get that stray out of the house now,
and pack your things.
Go away, dog!
Get out, dog!
-I told you to get that dog out!
-Out!
-To your room!
-Get out of here!
Out!
I don't want him to leave!
Out!
No!
DANGER
ELECTRIC FENCE
No, Estela, don't touch it!
You could be electrocuted!
Ivn!
Ivn, help!
Ivn!
Ivn, come here, please!
Ivn, come!
Stay here.
Estela, no!
Julia!
It's okay, Estela.
It's over now.
It's okay.
Hello, Ivn.
I don't work there anymore.
Yes, I'm already leaving.
What?
What happened to the girl?
Sir, stop!
I need to get off!
