Frontera Verde (2019) s01e07 Episode Script

The Light

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES [Raquel.]
Ushe, daughter of the jungle.
Many years passed but she never got old.
When she returned to the church with scars of fire and a deep pain inside, I had to protect and venerate her.
She was the guardian of God's mystery and of the Tree of Life.
Her punishment was not to bleed.
To not get old.
Live as the spiral eternally.
For that reason, she would always be persecuted.
I was her guardian, but I failed.
Praise the goddess.
Praise the jungle.
[father.]
She doesn't want to eat either.
She has had fever for several days.
[Ushe.]
He says that the mother died some weeks ago.
Three boys died as well, up the river.
I'm going to give you something.
Give it to her.
At dawn and dusk.
They grow around here.
This is a gift from the jungle.
You should take them also so you don't get sick.
Are you okay? [whispering.]
Where are the other ones? [heart beating rapidly.]
[sister.]
What is wrong, Ushe? Could you tell us? Don't follow me.
Go back to Yurumí! We can't leave you alone, we promised Raquel.
It's all right, Ushe, going back to the jungle will [birds trilling.]
Don't follow me.
Please don't follow me.
Don't follow me! Ushe! [gunshots.]
[man.]
This way! This way! [gunshots continue.]
This way! This way! [grunting.]
Yua and Helena.
Where are they? Where are they? You can't have something you don't deserve.
You don't have to explain anything.
I will see everything with my own eyes.
[Yua chanting.]
[Yua.]
Mother jungle, I give you back your daughter.
Receive her heart, wrap it in your wisdom.
[Yua continues chanting.]
I still remember you.
[elder chanting.]
Oh, what is this? Who is this critter that landed on my desk? Without my permission.
Who is this? Could it be a spider? Or perhaps a mosquito? I'm a cachicamo.
A cachicamo? Let me see.
Let me see.
Let me take a look.
Oh, yes, you're a cachicamo! Will you take care of her while I finish here? I won't take long.
Come here, Cachicamo.
So, Cachicamo? Do you want to play? Concentrate.
Look into my eyes.
What am I thinking about? What am I thinking about? Focus, Helena.
Open your eyes.
A walking tree.
I'm going to win.
Ushe! Ushe Ushe, are you near? You found me, Cachicamo.
Cachicamo, listen.
Close your eyes.
Find me again.
Find me Cachicamo.
Ushe? Ushe Ushe! Who are you? [Ushe.]
What did you see? [Helena.]
A man with a mask.
[Ushe.]
It's okay now.
Calm down.
I was waiting for you.
You can't be here.
You never thought I would be able to enter.
But here I am.
You can't do any harm here.
I can.
This space is mine.
And I can control it.
[chanting.]
What is happening? Ushe is returning to the depths of the jungle.
Her heart is finally turning off.
[Ushe.]
It's too late.
I'm not alone.
You lost the key.
[Joseph.]
No! The key.
The key! Damn it! I'm really sorry, Yua.
Ushe is now with the grandparents in the heart of the jungle.
She is part of everything.
I saw something.
With Ushe, in the jungle.
I remembered my mom.
Strong spirits dare to see their past.
Only they can know who they really are.
You are one of those spirits.
I'm scared.
You have to see beyond yourself.
Look at fear in the eyes.
Do not be afraid.
I'm with you.
Listen to yourself.
Cachicamo.
Find yourself, Cachicamo.
[man screaming.]
Helena, listen to me.
Remember how you turn into the jungle so I cannot find you? Close your eyes and think of a plant.
We're green.
We're green as leaves are green.
[Joseph.]
The jungle won't hide them forever.
Let's go.
Let's go! [Joaquín.]
Sweetheart.
Can you hear me? You'll be all right.
How is she? I don't know.
The doctor says he'll come in an hour or two.
You must take her away.
Huh? You have to take her away from the jungle, today.
I'm not risking her health.
If you leave her here, you'll risk her life, not her health.
You must take her away from here, now.
We both know her secret.
The jungle knows it.
She's a special girl.
They're looking for her.
She's the key and the door, and a man wants to get in.
What are you saying? I must go.
Don't look for me, please.
Cachicamo.
One day you'll come back.
The jungle will call you.
And the seed that you are will grow.
What did you do to me? I just showed you the entrance.
[Yua.]
The man in your visions is Joseph.
He wants to get into the depths of the jungle.
Into your consciousness.
If he succeeds the knowledge of the Earth of humanity will be his.
You and I share what is sacred.
Now that Ushe is the jungle, Joseph will come for us.
For both of us.
[Joaquín singing.]
Sleep, my girl The night has fallen You can hear the wind And his voice I'm not lying Close your eyes Listen to the wind That lives inside you It's heard in the horizon [Reynaldo.]
Where are you going? Sorry, Rey, but I'm done here.
There's a reason why I'd forgotten about this.
I want my normal life back.
- There is something special in you.
- No.
This isn't special.
I'll go to Puerto Manigua to get my dad, and take him to Bogotá.
They'll take good care of him, he'll wake up.
I'll move on with my life.
Helena! [Yua.]
Let her go! She needs to find her way in the jungle, she still has that fear inside.
Joseph isn't afraid of anything.
He wants to use the jungle to control men.
and I don't know how strong he is now.
Is he eternal like you? He survived he's not a common man.
We need to stand together with our brothers.
He will not stop until he gets what he wants.
[Joseph.]
For many years, Ya'arikawas have sought the secret to improve mankind, to change the world.
We got it, but they took it from us.
They delayed us, but didn't beat us.
We are not going to give up, we will fight.
Find the eternals.
Today, we'll win! [yelling and chanting.]
[Reynaldo.]
We're here to see Grandfather Wilson.
You're not welcome here.
You know that.
I complied with our agreement.
The body was returned to the Mananuc.
We know about the killer.
We're in danger, all of us.
It's time to join forces.
Who is he? He is who I want to talk about.
Now is not a good time to talk to him, he's been sick.
What's wrong with him? He's not speaking much, or eating.
He says he's tired.
Let him in, maybe he can do something for Grandfather Wilson.
Don't worry, Ramón, I know my place here.
Eternal man.
Thanks for receiving me.
Every time you come here you bring a problem, and every problem is bigger than the one before.
My dad has been acting weird for days.
It seems he's been waiting for the man you brought.
That man requested some plants.
Why did you come? To ask for forgiveness.
[Wilson.]
I saw something strange in my dreams.
I know why you are here.
This is your home, you're welcome any time you need.
Thank you, Grandfather.
[chanting.]
[groaning.]
Ow! Ow.
[breathing heavily.]
When I lost him I also lost my mind.
He was our son, Reynaldo.
I lost him, too.
We shared that pain and that love.
When I got out of here guilt devoured my soul.
After what happened, I became a shadow.
A ghost.
I couldn't even look at you, at anybody But I'm here now.
[grunts.]
[Yua.]
You cannot escape from yourself.
[gasping.]
[Aura singing.]
Sleep, my girl The night has fallen Listen to the river And its sound The maracú hasn't come Close your eyes Listen to the wind And the jungle Sleep, my girl The night shines In the horizon [Ushe.]
Cachicamo.
Cachicamo.
Where were you? I've always been here, Cachicamo.
I was waiting for you and you finally arrived.
The jungle is your home and she brought you to protect her.
You're a strong spirit, Helena.
Worthy of the jungle.
You'll never be alone.
Are you ready, Cachicamo? Ready for what? Joseph wants to take over this sacred place.
You are the door and the key.
Let him in.
You can only beat him here.
The heart of the jungle is here with you.
[Helena.]
Ushe.
Ushe.
