LOVE OF MY LIFE
CAUCA VALLEY DISTRICT PRISON
Hey! Don't play dumb!
I I left my makeup on. I'm coming out.
What's going on?
Let's go. No funny business.
Let's go, artists.
Come on, let's go.
Move it. Come on. Move it, move it.
What did you do, Joaquín? They left!
What are you going to do?
Why did you do that?
I can't be a fugitive again.
I spent years running from my own life.
There must be a way to fix this.
We have no time to think about that stuff.
Take off the makeup and let's go back.
Hurry!
But sir, are you sure?
Yes, yes! It's the best news I could get.
Thank you.
They arrested Rogelio.
He's in jail.
What did they say about Joaquín?
The judge hasn't issued his release,
but it shouldn't be long.
Joe!
Why are you here?
Did something happen to Sara?
No.
But if she finds out I'm here,
she'll kill me.
Are you really getting married?
Well, it's not a normal wedding.
It's a ritual
where they unite two people
through the four elements.
That's what I gathered.
-The four elements?
-Yes.
Water, fire, earth,
air and
some hippie things I don't understand.
Joe, I don't know
if I should be happy or worried.
That's why I came, Mrs. Mariana,
because I'm worried.
I think Sara needs
her family more than ever right now.
I would love
to be by her side right now,
but I don't think she'll want me
to be at the ceremony.
Well, I do.
That's why I'm inviting you.
Really?
Listen,
I never had a family.
I only ever had my brother,
and we were apart for ten years.
And I know, I understand
that Sara is angry or confused.
But you are the most important person
in her life.
And when we get married, well
you're going to be like a mother to me.
Thank you for telling me that.
But I don't know, I'm not sure.
To a large extent, I'm to blame
for what's going on with Sara right now.
I lied to her a lot.
We all make mistakes.
Yes, but
the mistakes mothers make
seem to be even worse.
Listen, Mrs. Mariana,
what I want to tell you is
what happened to Sara
wasn't all your fault.
She's
gone through things
you don't even know about.
We
We lost a baby.
What?
You look beautiful.
Really?
Yes, of course.
Aren't you happy?
Yes, yes, yes.
Obviously I'm happy. But, well
Sometimes I feel like I don't deserve
to be happy and get scared.
Don't say that.
Today is the happiest day of your life.
Enjoy it.
I've seen you in my dreams.
Who are you?
Your mother.
They told me my mother was dead.
I never should have given you up.
Sara, Jazmín was
a woman with a disgraceful past.
That's why she ended up
in an insane asylum.
-Shall we?
-Let's go.
So, I'm getting married!
You're getting married.
Well, well!
Hold still. We're counting you.
Did you look under the beds?
In the kitchen, in the warehouse?
You left no stone unturned?
Huh?
Good thing we covered our faces.
Because all hell is about to break loose.
An advantage of the years spent here,
you learn.
They won't talk. It won't benefit them.
Your friends are missing.
Relax.
You'll be the ones who suffer now.
Well, well!
Disband, ladies!
New arrivals.
It can't be.
What, what? Who is it, Joaquín?
The bastard who ruined my life.
It can't be.
See? It's good you didn't escape.
You'll get to see that devil face to face.
Your revenge was handed to you
on a silver platter.
What else could you want?
Let's go, come on.
He has the face of a thug.
Hi.
Ignacia.
First, you need to stop calling me,
because you're blowing my cover.
Then you call me.
I haven't had news from you in days.
If I don't call you,
it's because I have no news.
-Let me work.
-Look, kid.
You don't get to live it up
while I'm living on a shoestring budget.
Uh-uh.
I got you into that house.
I can take you out.
And what will you tell those women?
Hm? That you gave them the wrong kid?
Or I can tell them you tricked me.
I'm not the one taking money from them
and living the good life on their dime.
You want to risk it?
Don't piss me off.
Look, this isn't all that easy.
Like you said.
Those chicks think of everything.
They think what you let them think.
Focus on getting Primitiva out of the way.
She doesn't have a penny to her name.
And focus on getting to Mariana Azcárate.
They don't want me to meet her.
Figure out a way.
And remember this.
The longer you take over there,
the greater our risk
of getting discovered.
Don't hand us to them, idiot.
Don't call me that.
Peace, my kin.
-Peace.
-Peace.
Mother Nature is receiving us
on a day full of harmony
to bless the union of two beings of light.
Here comes a being of light.
You look lovely, Sara.
Thank you.
Everything's ready.
Where's Joe?
I don't know. He must be
What's Mom doing here?
And mine. Why'd he bring them?
Hold these, please.
Before you speak,
talk to her.
Please.
Let's go.
Are you leaving?
-I forgot my keys. Sorry. Thanks.
-Okay.
What did you forget?
Nothing.
If you want, I can introduce you to her.
Who?
The woman you were following.
I don't know what you mean.
Sorry, I got mixed up.
Okay. Relax. Come on.
I was thinking
that if you have any questions
about my life, I think
it's best to get it out.
I'm not interested in your life.
I'm just not convinced by that story
about you being Mariana's son.
Why are you here?
And who's the girl?
My love! My love, please.
Don't take it off.
You look beautiful.
Listen, I don't want to ruin the moment
for you or Joe.
If you really don't want to talk, I'll go.
No problem.
You don't need to go.
I
I want you to understand
this isn't because of you.
I'm just trying to
to start over.
But I don't think I'll be able to
being so close to everything, Mom.
My love, we can change cities,
names, families
but some types of pain
follow us everywhere.
And anger is pain, too.
I understand that you're angry
with me and your father
after what happened.
But I know what it's like to lose someone.
Yes, my love.
It's too heavy a weight to carry alone.
Joe told you that
we lost a baby?
Yes, my love.
He told me because he's worried about you.
My love, Joe loves you.
And when we love someone,
we do what's best for that person.
Sara, look at me.
I am here for you.
Accept my apologies.
And accept all the love
I have to give you.
And accept Joe's love.
Do you want to start over?
We'll all start over.
Mom, I don't know if I can.
I
I'm in so much pain, Mom. I
Everything will be okay.
Well, I hope so.
Because if not
I won't forgive myself.
Relax.
What you did was a wonderful gesture.
I need to be far away, Mom.
I understand.
But you're strong,
and you'll get through it.
And if you'll let me,
I'd love to be here for you
during the ceremony.
Because I am your mother.
May I?
I love you.
And thanks for coming.
I adore you.
Shall we?
Um, I need a moment.
Then I'll come up. Okay?
I'll wait for you there.
See you up there.
Oh, Lucy.
I want you to think carefully
about what you're doing with your life.
I'm living it, Mom.
Without commitments,
without being tied down.
Happy and free.
Your father gets out of prison tomorrow,
and I'd like you to be at home
so we can receive him as a family.
Mom, we haven't been a family in a while.
But we can try again!
You don't know
if Dad will want to be with you.
Lucy!
-Are you on drugs?
-What?
Yeah! Tell me the truth.
I know about these types of communities,
and they pressure people to take drugs.
-If they're pressuring you to
-Mom!
Let me remind you that I'm 20.
I can do what I want.
I won't go back to live with you.
Lucy!
She's coming.
We just have to wait a moment. Okay?
My kin!
We have a ceremony!
Children.
Ignacia raised me for many years.
She's like my mother.
Well, we don't get along very well.
What's going on
is Carlitos hardly ever
listens to me anymore.
And I'm grown now, and
and I like to do things my way.
That's why it always goes wrong.
I'm sorry, but I'm not really interested
in your mother-son relationship.
I came to find out why you're meeting
behind Josefina's back.
Because we resolve
our personal problems in private.
And if you're worried that
we're hiding something from Josefina,
you can go yourself and ask her.
She knows everything about me and Ignacia.
But it's strange.
If you have a house here, why live there?
Why go poking around
in other people's things?
I'm looking for my mom.
Seems like you're an opportunist.
Listen, Miss
Matilde.
Miss Matilde,
we didn't go looking for those women.
-They came looking for us.
-Yes.
They came to us
and suggested I move into the hostel.
I don't like being called a con man.
And if you don't believe me, we can go
right now to Josefina and ask her.
Shall we?
I would prefer it
if Josefina didn't know I was here.
Why?
Because I don't want my aunt
to know you exist yet.
Your aunt? Who's your aunt?
Mariana Azcárate.
She's my father's cousin.
So, if you were to keep quiet
about me being here, I'd appreciate it.
Relax.
It can be our secret.
Thanks.
I think it's best if I go.
Sorry for doubting you.
No. Don't worry.
Come back soon.
That girl is your direct ticket
to Mariana Azcárate. Got that, idiot?
Where is the new inmate?
Looking for me?
I wanted to see you with my own eyes.
Finally, after 20 years,
justice has been done.
So, it was worth it.
Don't you want to settle the score?
Here I am.
Give you the satisfaction? No.
I'd rather you rot here, locked in a cell,
while I build my life on the outside.
That's if you get out.
Oh, what? Can't get your hands dirty?
Do it yourself, you coward!
I think this time I'd rather watch.
The idea was to scare him before he left.
The thing is we don't work on credit.
If you want action, cash first.
The cash will come.
But when I do pay you, I want a quick job.
Got it?
Ma'am? Isn't she coming?
Why isn't she coming?
What did you talk about?
No, she needed a moment,
but I thought she was going to come.
Wait here, I'll find her.
Sara!
Sara!
What does it say?
This is the hardest decision
I've ever made,
but right now,
I can barely handle my own life.
I'm sorry, Joe. And I'm sorry, Mom,
but I need to be alone
and find myself.
And when I know who I am and what I want,
I can come back.
Don't look for me.
When I'm ready, I'll come back.
And don't worry, Mom. I'll be fine.
I'll write you.
Joe,
I love you.
And I want you to know
this is not your fault.
Thank you for reuniting me with my mom.
Please forgive me. And if you can't wait,
I'll understand.
I lost her.
-Did I lose her?
-No. No, Joe. No.
She just needs time.
Sara told me we should get married.
That if we wanted to fix the mistakes
and do things right this time,
that we should get married.
And I ruined it,
like some weirdo.
I ruined it.
Nothing ever works out for me.
-Joe
-No.
Help me pack up quickly, we have to go.
Yes, but you didn't tell me
where we're going.
"We're going"? Sounds like a vacation.
When did the commune become so exclusive?
No.
It's just that we ask the commune members
to be free, not to be tied down.
And it's obvious your family ties
can drag you and everyone else down.
Luis, please. My mom doesn't control me.
I do what I want.
Why didn't you respond about the trip?
I already have my passport over there.
I'm ready.
I need that money
to start building a life on my own.
I don't want to depend on my parents.
I knew you wouldn't disappoint me!
Very good. Help me clean up.
My kin!
Gather everything up. We're leaving.
Do you need something?
Yes.
I'm looking for Matilde.
Matilde?
Yes, she's helping me
with some things for the university.
You want to go back to school?
Yes, a degree program.
That's so great!
Yes, have you seen her?
Well, she should be in her room.
But Primitiva's looking for you.
No, I can't right now.
But
Carlos, dear!
-I need to talk to you.
-I can't right now.
There's something I need to take care of.
I sold it all.
It's not much.
They didn't give me much,
but it's enough for us to go to Bogotá.
Bogotá? Why?
To start a new life.
Some cousins are opening up
a restaurant serving Pacific-style food,
and they said I could work with them.
And you can study or find your own work
or whatever you want.
It's an opportunity to
to start our lives over again.
I want to take a test.
Tomorrow.
-But, son, you said
-I'm sorry.
I need to know the truth.
Keep the money.
You better have good news.
Sit down.
-Sit!
-Right.
So,
for now, you have
to wait here a little longer.
The prosecution has conclusive evidence.
I doubt the judge will release you
before the trial.
I
think it's best
at this time
to start preparing your defense.
I drew up a testimony.
It's your testimony before the judge.
Forget all that.
I'm not spending who-knows-how-long here
waiting for a trial I'm going to lose.
Get Rowdy instead.
Only he can get me out of here.
Give me a pen and paper.
Call this number and ask for Rowdy.
He knows where the money is hidden.
Fleeing will only make things worse.
We could try to get a different judge.
Sir, I don't know if you've noticed,
but I'm having a bad day.
Please, limit yourself
to doing what I ask you.
Did you bring what I asked?
What I don't understand
is why you need so much money.
Sir, you know very well
that money in prison serves two purposes
protecting my life,
and paying for someone's death.
Door!
My sources say Benítez got
the worst thugs here to protect him.
And he put a price on your head.
Man, don't feel bad
for doing things by the book.
Have a little faith.
Faith won't save my life
if justice is moving at a snail's pace.
You know sooner or later it'll happen.
For doing the job I asked you to do.
But in the meantime
-No!
-Take care of yourself.
What are you thinking? I'm not a killer.
Self-defense is a right, Joaquín.
Don't give him the satisfaction
of seeing you die here.
It's not all here.
It's half.
The rest when he's not breathing.
Think about your wife.
Think about your daughter.
-My rules are very clear.
-Take it or leave it.
Take it. They're going to see you.
No witnesses.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Um Look,
can we maybe start this friendship over?
What friendship?
Well, that's
a figure of speech.
Well, good. I thought the same thing,
but it's better with a toast.
Oof. Now I feel like an old man.
No, no. I like it
when guys are old school.
But I think this'll help us
get to know each other a bit better.
Thanks.
Shall we?
And what are we celebrating?
We're drowning our sorrows.
Cheers.
I don't know if
it's really that we're bad mothers,
or that we don't understand
this new generation,
but I never thought I could be so old
as to not understand Lucy.
No. I think we do
what we believe is best for our daughters.
That's all.
Although, we're always wrong.
But what happens if they don't come back,
if we don't see them again?
No. I trust
that Sara will call eventually,
tell me where she is, what she's doing.
I don't know.
And Lucy?
What did she say?
Nothing specific.
I'm just hoping
she gets over this hippie phase.
When she was 17, she left home,
saying she wanted to be a movie star.
She was back three days later.
Didn't have enough for food.
Carla, it's obvious you're a great mother.
We just need to wait for Lucy
to get through this crisis,
and trust our daughters.
Even if it means worrying all day,
wondering where they are,
what they're doing.
Honestly, Mariana, I never imagined
I'd be going through all this with you.
Let alone taking your advice.
Maybe we're not friends,
but we're not enemies either.
What do you think you'll do
when Joaquín is released?
I don't know, Carla.
For me, everything that's happening
has more to do with the past
than the future.
I think I'm just healing wounds
so I can move on.
And you?
What do you want when he's out?
Well, to be honest with you, Mariana, I
I'd like to get my family back.
So, you know how to dance.
What's that about?
I learned.
Here and there.
A person
to survive on the streets,
you have to learn lots of things.
Uh-huh.
And this is
a weapon of seduction?
It works for me.
It works very well for me.
With the girls.
Like you.
Like me?
So, what's the plan?
Seduce me and take my fortune?
Do I even stand a chance?
Hm?
Well, you'll have to hustle
because I bought the bottle.
I brought you flowers.
They may be stolen.
Because I'm poor, right?
It's the thought
that counts.
And I had it.
Okay.
Tell me about yourself.
You already know my story.
I didn't know my parents.
They abandoned me.
I stayed at a couple of orphanages
before Ignacia adopted me.
That's basically my life.
Yes, yes, yes. I do know all that.
I want details.
So,
where were you born?
I was born in Buenaventura.
No way.
How could my aunt
have had you in Buenaventura?
Why wouldn't she?
Have you not been there?
If you really knew
who Mr. Alfredo Azcárate was,
you'd know he'd never let his daughter
give birth in a city like that.
Cheers!
Now we know Primitiva's your mom.
That's nice.
Look
I'd like to meet
your uncle.
Your great-uncle, Mr. Alfredo. Yeah?
Right, that
That'd be complicated.
He he wouldn't even let you in the house.
But I'm not like that.
-Oh, no?
-Mm-mm.
You
you'd introduce me to your family?
What's the rush to meet my family?
No, no, no.
It would be risky.
What if we're cousins? No.
No, because Primitiva is your mom.
Because I was born in Buenaventura?
That's what they told me, but I
maybe I was born in Cali.
So,
do you want us to be cousins?
ID CARD
You're going?
Don't leave
Yes, I have to go early.
Have you seen Joe?
Thanks.
We're leaving now. We're the last ones.
I'm staying.
There's nothing here.
They took the tents
and we're leaving now.
Mm-hmm.
Sorry about everything with Sara.
But it's no use
staying behind and sitting here.
Plus, she said she'd come back.
No. She said to start my own life.
Because life goes on, brother.
We have to finish the documentary,
keep developing the magazine
There's a lot to do.
Those are your projects, Tino, not mine.
You changed your life.
No. I changed
for Sara.
You don't have to change for her,
or me or anyone else.
Change for yourself.
What use to me is that?
What use to me is being a good guy
and having a decent job?
It's not easy.
How much time have you spent
being a good guy with a decent job?
Hm?
Be patient.
Be good to yourself.
The pain isn't letting you think.
The pain showed me reality.
The reality is that I lost Sara
by wanting to be someone I'm not.
You are the good brother.
And I
am still me.
SANTIAGO DE CALI HOSPITAL
Mr. Carlos Mauricio?
Do what you have to do.
Uh, yes, that's me.
I came to do a blood test.
-Yes. I need your ID, please.
-Ah, of course.
You're going? Don't leave.
Yes, I have to go early.
Your ID?
Uh, I think I lost it.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Okay, sir. Let's get up.
You're getting your hands dirty
for that filth?
Excuse me, guard.
I need to speak with the director,
urgently.
The director's not here.
But I am,
so I'm the authority figure right now.
-Do you have an appointment?
-No.
I have a judge's order that I think
is more important than an appointment.
They just ordered the immediate release
of my client, Joaquín Mosquera.
But I'd have to check.
It seems he was involved in an escape.
Mm-hmm. And is there
an official investigation?
-No, but
-But nothing.
What you have to do
is comply with the court order.
Kindly accompany me to get my client.
