It's the aria...

who sings
to the heavens.

And to him.
Do you remember the story?

- Yes.
- He's going crazy.

- For him?
- For him.

Then they kill him?

Then evil finds him?

No, not yet.
Let's see if this one suits you.

- Right?
- Something like that, yes.

- Are you finished, darling?
- No.

I can't take it anymore.

I couldn't hold on any longer.

Come on, Sol.

Do it.

Come on, come on.

Give me some toilet paper.

Get it.

- I couldn't take it anymore.
- Oh, Mom.

What?

- You are in a public toilet! Get out!
- Now! Go on.

Hurry up.

If they don't come to you,
Leave it alone, Sol.

You'll go again,
when we get home.

Wiper.

Let's go.

- No.
- Finish.

Bridge! Bridge!

Exactly. We're gonna go through
under the bridge...

like... motorized cowgirls

- Let's just hold our breath, okay?
- Okay. Okay.

And you have to do
a wish as we go along.

Okay. You thought
yours?

Yes.

Okay, me too,
but I'm keeping it a secret.

I can't take it anymore.

This means
your wish will come true.

Shall I tell you who she was?

- Tell me.
- Don't let Daddy die.

Hello, Auntie.

What are you doing?

Me too, well, Auntie.
All set.

Yes.

I didn't get an answer from the Sepeda.

You don't send them a message
to see if they're coming or not?

Yes.

Good, Auntie.

Any gift you want.

Like I said, Auntie.

A gift for Tona,
something happy, something...

I don't know,
Whatever your heart desires.

Is Aubregon coming?

How nice!

He didn't know if he could leave
from work earlier. Good.

Wait a minute, please.
Nuria!

Can you open up, please?

I can't right now, I'm busy.
Would you get that, please?

Bend over, honey.
So, that's it.

So.
It'll burn you a little.

Once, when I was there
at the swimming pool, my ear hurt...

and Grandma Susanna did the same to me
to take away my pain.

Really?

- What does it say?
- Good.

- Is it burning you?
- Yes.

You're feeling better, aren't you?

What a wonderful gift.

- Hello, Bruce.
- Hi, Lucia.

Wait a minute,
let me get it on tight.

- I see.
- Let me fix your nose, little one.

No, I can't.
I can't breathe.

For a while, here you are.
your daddy can see you.

He'll love to see you
would he, really, Bruce?

- Absolutely.
- You're beautiful.

And we're preparing a
a big surprise.

Don't tell anyone.
Only to Cruz.

Six eggs and two
two cups of sugar.

- I'll put them here.
- Okay, put them here.

See the gift
I found outside.

Let's see...

Hello, Solesito. Amazing
wig, I like it.

- Thank you.
- It sucks.

- I brought this cake for my dad.
- Thank you so much, sweetie.

Your wig is perfect,
I like it.

It looks great on you.
And the balloons?

And this, for the party
we brought them.

Mom, don't you
I don't like clowns.

Why are you being so rude, Esther?
I don't find it funny.

It was very rude.

Apologize
from your cousin.

Only if he takes off the
the wig and the nose.

He's not going to make it.

- Leave her alone.
- She's so beautiful.

Rainbow wig.

What's at the end
of the rainbow, Saul?

Gold.
You're gold, Sol.

Come here, honey.

- We're making a cake.
- I'm sorry.

So, good girl.
Good girl.

- How that nose looks on you.
- Can I see my dad?

Not now, darling,
she needs to rest.

- He doesn't want to see me?
- If possible!

Lie down for a while, just to be sure
rested for the party.

- I'll leave you a little bit.
- Thank you, Bruce.

Let's make
the tortilla, yeah?

Yes! Mom, I want
to put the eggs in.

- You want to throw the eggs?
- Yeah.

All right, then.
There you go.

Here, you have to put...
Six eggs, right?

That's perfect. And now...

Get up.

That's it.

Two, three...

Breathe.

Deep breaths.

- Slower.
- Yeah, okay.

Relax.

That's it.

Are you going alone?

- Thank you, Bruce.
- I'm here.

Hello, Auntie.

Hello, darling.
How are you?

Very well.

- Your mom?
- She had to go to the theater.

I wanted to ask her something.

It's okay,
I'll text her.

Are you ready for the party?

Yes.

What a handsome clown.
I love it.

You look like your dad,
with that nose.

I can't
I can't breathe.

Take it off and put it back on
when the party starts. You got it?

I can see
my dad?

No, dear.

Don't bother him.
He's resting.

We want it to be
really good tonight.

Don't bother him, please.
He's asleep, yes? Promise me?

- I promise.
- You won't bother him?

- Promise?
- Yes.

- Good. Will you help me, darling?
- Yes, I will.

Coffee, Monsey?

Don't give him coffee.
Leave him alone.

Okay.

- It's filthy up here.
- Yeah? Yeah?

It purrs.

I'll give you something
to clean it up.

- Don't get dirty.
- Okay. Okay.

Mom, there's a lot of dirt.

You gonna clean up too?

No, I'm not enough.

Here you go, Mom.
Monsey's coffee.

With tuna.

Darling, why did you give him
coffee? He's going to hurt him.

- You want to wipe up there?
- Yeah.

- You're calling Monsey?
- Give him to me.

Hold him,
while I clean up here.

I'll start...

to get it wet.

- I'm gonna get wet.
- Don't go backwards, you'll fall.

- Look, Mom.
- What is it, honey?

Don't bite it.

You'll damage your teeth.
That's enough.

Give me the pumice stone.

- Auntie...?
- What, darling?

Why did my grandmother die?

Your grandmother died
because she had cancer.

Where was he sleeping?

He was sleeping with Grandpa.

But which room?

- What did you say, honey?
- What room?

In the one that sleeps
your daddy's sleeping now.

You're gonna mess up your teeth.
Stop it.

Honey, please.
Give me that.

How nice to be in the water.

That's right, Mom. Look.

Well done.

- Are you finished?
- Yes. And you, a beauty.

What's that?

- A cup, darling.
- For what?

For... wine?

No, not exactly.

No, darling.
It's not for wine.

- I'll wash my hands, Mom.
- I'll wash my hands, Mom.

Will you pass me the soap?

What's that?

Soap.

- A soapy doggie.
- Look at that, Esther.

- With or without earrings?
- With earrings.

I don't care.
I've been waiting for so long!

I'm not waiting any longer.
My hair is going to be a mess.

Here's the towel.
Wipe.

Nuri.

What?

The other one is damaged.

I'm coming.
We're getting there.

And I'll do them
on me, damn it.

Faster,
the faster.

Faster.

Faster.

You don't want to play
with this?

Better with Monsey.

Okay.

Monsey.

And we fixed them.

And it was the best sex
of my life.

But at the same time... Damn!
I felt so guilty.

Apparently Roberto
doesn't know.

I'm not even sorry
for Roberto.

I feel bad
for me, for my son.

I mean, I don't want to
fall all the time...

the same old, same old.

I feel like... at some point,

Roberto and I had
had come to be well...

and that was
a conscious step.

Now, the crap from the past
are coming back, and much worse.

I want to be the best
version of myself,

for the baby, but I feel
I'm the worst.

If everything was bad before,

now it's much worse.

I'm so sad,
because I can't control it.

Analyze the
a little more.

I don't want to transfer it
to my baby.

I don't want to internalize
unconsciously,

all wrong
I do.

And I'm getting out of my clothes!

Sol, my love, give me
some paper, please.

- Auntie.
- Yes, darling?

Why did you all hang out
my dad's drawings?

He asked us, darling.

He wanted to see the paintings
we had when we were kids.

Will you help me?
Is there any paint left?

- No.
- My neck?

Not there either.

- There you go.
- There you go.

Thank you.

Did you get rid of the lice?

Yes? I'm going to ask Tilos
to brush your hair, okay?

What do you think?

Can you give me
more paper?

It's not right,
wasting all that paper.

Darling.
Your aunt left me without a towel.

That's it, one more card.

Can you see anything?

On my forehead?
Anything?

What's the matter, Garnacha?

Hi.

Hi.

Hello, handsome.

Hi.

Now to work
on this,

based on what you told me, yes?

Very bad atmosphere
in here.

These tables
are not helpful at all.

Look at these women crying.
A lot of sadness, a lot of pain.

Then, these guys, here,
suffering.

You have to change them,
because they're not helping you at all.

To get rid of...

the spirit or spirits
that you actually have here...

- They haven't played the piano?
- No.

That's good.
Very good.

Because sometimes
they're very naughty.

I'm serious.

I feel it with every step
I make.

Can you feel
the aura, very strong.

I don't know who you're messing with,
or who you let into your house,

or your friends, but you have to
be very careful.

Because the aura is very bad.
Don't be afraid.

We'll get rid of them.

- I know my job well.
- That's right.

They were right to
they told you about me.

I'll help you, too.
and your brother.

Because I heard you have a
your brother in bed.

Don't worry.
Don't be afraid.

We'll get rid of them,
but they are strong.

Look at this.
Look how my hair stands up.

And I have almost none.

But they already feel
my presence.

Don't worry.

We'll get rid of them.

- I just want your cooperation.
- Yes.

Just raise your hands like this,
make the sign of the cross.

- And help me get rid of them.
- Yes.

- Here it is. Here it is.
- Is it?

- I can feel them.
- Oh, my God. Can you do that?

Don't be afraid. Show them
that you are the strongest.

- Right.
- There you go.

- We'll get rid of them, you'll see.
- Yes, let them go.

Get out of here!
We don't want you.

You will not come back to upset us again,
to do your evil deeds again.

Nobody here wants
to hurt you,

we ask nothing of you.

Let them
leave them alone.

We are spirits,
we are family,

we are creatures of light.

Get out of here! Get out!

Get out of here!
Get out of the way, baby.

Don't be afraid, or else
you will be overcome.

Get out!

Can you come here for a minute?

- Huh?
- Yes?

Hey, there's something here.

I'm feeling something here, Ale.

What do you think?

Ale.

I feel something.

But it's not bad, Ale.

I feel something good.
I can feel something...

affectionate.

What happened here?
What happened in this place, Ale?

Do you remember anything?

Yes.

This is where he spent
My mom used to spend her afternoons here.

Then she'll be your mom.

She's your mom.
who won't let you.

He doesn't want to leave you.

He is afraid.

Don't worry.

He's gone now.

Everything went smoothly.
Calm down.

He's gone.

We're doing well.

Let's go this way.

I'll stop by the library.

Any of the Kanitas?
(Cañitas, horror books by Carlos Trejo)

- I don't know.
- I thought maybe...

Look.

Like the Olympic flame.

It is our triumph.

- Where are we going now, Ale?
- The hallway?

The bad aura is gone,

and the fire goes in,
the light, the power.

Smells like smoke.

- That's enough, Alejandra.
- We're getting there, Dad.

You're gonna burn down my office.

I'm not in the mood
your evil nonsense.

- Get out of here.
- We're leaving!

Why did Aunt Alejandra
and the other lady...

They're running around with a piece
burnt bread?

Because they are crazy.

They're crazy.

Put it down, Esther.

There, okay.

We are planning the actions.

Everything is fine now.

With that, it's over.
my work here is done.

Please take a look
a handful of salt in each bucket...

and wash your hands and hands
feet of your sick relative,

you will see, it will help him
make him feel better.

So, it became my job.

Remind me of your name,
to save it for the future.

Yes, my name is Ludica, it means
"joy", if you don't know.

Ludica. Yes. Let me pay you.
It was 2,000, right?

No, my daughter,
here's the thing...

It's 3,000, because it was very
difficult and dangerous.

Today's exhausted me.

Honestly, I'm gonna have to take
three days off to relax,

because I was
very difficult.

- I'll charge you 2,500.
- Good.

And, say.
and your friends about me.

Sure, I'll see you off.
Thanks, Bruce. I'll be right there.

And I sell Tupperware...

Hi.

Hello, Esther.

- This is not a game.
- Dad, will you calm down?

Calm down.

I have to go shopping
some things.

I want some for the cake.
I'll leave you Esther.

Don't go.

- You must.
- No.

Dad, we have to pay
Dr. Jimenez tomorrow.

- It's urgent.
- There is no more money for treatments.

We have to, we can't
we can't leave it.

He doesn't want it
the damn party.

You'll relax with the party,
Dad? You better enjoy it.

I had to bathe
my hair in the sink.

- They look beautiful.
- Like hell they are.

Let go of me, little one.
I have to go.

I won't be long.

- Come on!
- I don't want you to go.

Please,
write yourself off!

I won't be long.
I'll be right back.

I have to go, I won't be long.
I'll be right back.

No, baby,
what is all this?

No, darling.

Will you put the pillows away?
Didn't we say to clean up?

Come on, help me,
before someone gets killed.

Come, Solesito, please.

We're gonna be late.
And the living room is a mess.

- Come on, Mommy, please.
- Yes, Auntie.

Saul, please,
pick them up!

Come on, please.
help me, mamita.

Come on, mamita.
Please help me, Sol.

Oh, no.
No, no, no...

Excuse me, doggie.

I'm sorry,
I don't have the answer.

When will it come
the end of the world?

If it does not prove fatal,
the technology of the future,

Earth, probably,
will be destroyed,

when the Sun is changed
into a Red Giant,

in several
millions of years.

What are you doing here?

- You scared me.
- A lot?

Yes.

So, what are you doing?

I was talking.

With your phone?

What were you saying?

Nothing, just
just chatting.

What were you talking about?

For the end of the world.

You were asking him if
will the end come?

And if my dad
will die.

You know more than I do.
than that stuff.

Much more.

How you doing?

- Okay.
- Really? Yeah.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Sometimes, it seems to me
Daddy doesn't love me,

when he says
she doesn't want to see me.

And you, you shouldn't have
be with him?

He loves you very much.
He thinks about you all the time...

and asked me to
to tell me he's taking a bath,

so it doesn't smell
like a goat.

He wants to be nice to you.
Beautiful.

You're right. You're not
he loves you, he adores you.

He loves you, with all his
with all his heart.

My Saul.

He loves you very much, sweetheart.

I swear to you. I give you my word
like a witch. As a witch.

Let me see your tongue.

Above. Down.

On the side.
On the other side.

You're fine.
in good health.

I think so.

I understand.
from your tongue.

To smell
your breath.

What have you had, Sol?

He had a pot there
and I accidentally knocked it over.

I pushed it with an apron and
behind it was a bottle of wine.

I took a sip
and it tasted awful.

Like blood.

Have you tried blood?

- When my tooth came out.
- Oh, yeah.

Then don't drink any more,
if it tastes so awful.

Your cousins are here.

I'll take that.
Your grandfather was asking where he was.

Come out in the sunshine, Sol.

Get some fresh air, yeah?
Lie down on the grass.

I'll get you a bread roll
and water. Okay?

Hi, honey.
This one, I'll take it.

Are you serious?

I told you I need help.

Get up, help me
...help me put on the electric.

- Let me just respond to this message.
- No, don't answer.

Tell them to wait.
and come help me.

It's not fair.
It's not fair.

No, he'll help.
Get up, Chava.

- Why?
- Why do you think?

- I just opened it.
- Turn it back off!

Turn off your mobile phone too
and let's clean up.

- Will you please help me?
- I helped you yesterday.

His series
isn't it today?

He's staying here for free.
I'm still a kid.

- She's supposed to be an adult.
- Both of you, don't fool around.

- In a minute.
- Now, I said!

- Don't you understand?
- I don't understand.

You're being sexist.
He can lie down, but I can't.

- I'm not lying down.
- Give me that.

Give it to me!

I'm going to count to three,
stand up.

- Relax.
- Don't tell me to relax.

- I'll ground you for two months.
- Two?

Two. Both of you.

- Get up!
- Good.

And with a smile.

Cut it out! Mom,
Chava is an idiot.

- How do you do it?
- Like this.

No, darling.

Like I showed you, man.

- Like a fan, a fan.
- Mama... You're doing it.

- Let him go.
- You can do it.

That's how you raise
a sexist.

Continue. Fan. It's so
easy, honey. Fan.

Go ahead, I have so much more.

Please, no, honey.
It's getting on my nerves.

- Come help me.
- Yes, Mom.

Come here.
Have some of this.

- Won Ton (=Chinese dumplings)!
- Here you go.

Make a ball.
That's it.

We are careful not to
scatter us.

Save the crumbs, baby.
Make it round, okay?

- Yes.
- You have to knead it well.

So.

- And these.
- Okay.

That's it.

It smells burnt to me.

- It's burning!
- What?

Damn it!

No!

- The cake for Uncle Tona.
- Give me the milk.

- Can I help you?
- Better give it to me.

Damn...

Mom, what happened to him?
your finger?

I burned it, baby.

I burned it.

- Let me see.
- There.

- I love you, Mom.
- I love you, too.

It was for Uncle Tona.
Uncle Tona's cake was burnt.

That's right, baby.

I don't care about the cake.
I care about you.

- I don't like it when you're sad.
- No, darling, don't worry.

It'll be over in a minute.

Listen... It's okay.
It's just a cake.

We can make another one.

We'll make another one.

How are you gonna get away?

What are you gonna do?

I win.

- Hey, how's the gang going?
- Hey.

- Hello, Uncle Napo.
- The infernal gang.

- What are you doing?
- Can I see the fish?

Yeah, it's for Sol.
Let's give it to her.

What are you doing, Chavito?

- Hey, Sol. Did you see that?
- For me?

Yes, for you.
A little fish.

- I want to.
- You want some fish?

I'll buy you one.
I'll buy you one.

- This is for Sol.
- Saul, how nice.

- What are you going to call it?
- You have to give it a name.

- Pero (dog).
- Eustacchio.

- No.
- Perot?

Goldilocks.

No, she looks like a Medusa.

What do you think, Chavito?

I think it looks like
like a shark or a cat.

Cat would be a funny name.

Goldilocks is nice.
Goldilocks with ketchup.

- Because it is reddish.
- Don't shake it too much.

Yeah, that's right, they're the first
to feel the earthquake,

they can feel
the vibrations,

because in the water
they are stronger.

They would still feel the vibrations
even if they weren't in the water,

because even though they have a small brain,
they're very intelligent,

they feel every vibration.

You have to put it on
in a jug.

Right. You're coming,
to put it on?

- Yes!
- Let's go look in the kitchen.

- I'll keep it.
- Is it male or female?

- I don't know.
- Goldilocks is good for both.

- They're both unisex.
- Put it in a jug.

No way, he was kissing me!

Careful, hold it
and underneath.

- And be careful.
- Very carefully.

I spoke to the doctor today.

He told me that the x-ray
didn't look good at all.

Maybe we should start
dorsal anesthesia.

- What else can we do?
- No, Daddy doesn't have a dime.

We have nothing left,
I sold everything.

But it hurts so much.

I know, but he needs morphine.

Why are you bringing it up today?
Forget it.

I'm done with the electric, Mom.

- Think about it.
- What a mess this is...

- I'll clean it up.
- Hey, how you doing? Say hello.

- Hi.
- And you're late to tell us.

Because I ate the place
to get organic for Tona.

Four and a half hours
for a little shopping.

- I went all the way to San Juan.
- Help us, Napo.

That's why I came.

Listen...

Really, I think we should
we should think about chemotherapy.

For crying out loud, now?

- Yes.
- No, he decided.

We've already discussed it
a million times.

- He wants morphine.
- Tona doesn't want it.

The most important thing is
to support his decision.

- He decides.
- It's not up to us.

- Leave it now.
- We sit idle.

- Come on, now.
- We did everything we could.

Did you forget about Mom?

I don't want to. You do.
to relive it?

- Yes.
- Stop, please.

Chemotherapy is awful.

Yeah, and the morphine
even more horrible.

- Resolved.
- It makes him weird.

Not now.

Morphine is the only
that helps with the pain.

- Look at my fish, Uncle.
- Horrible, but that's the way it is.

Looks good! I like it.
I'll have to get an aquarium.

- Yes.
- To have a house, not a jug.

We have to think about it
though, right?

Either way, we can
we can ask him again.

- Exactly. Please.
- Not behind his back.

Fine, ask him.
You talk to him.

- Excuse me?
- Do you have fish food?

Yes. Let me see, I don't
I don't remember where I put it.

He'll be hungry.

Please, forget it.
We'll talk later.

Last.

Okay.

Breathe normally.
Normal breaths.

Thank you, Bruce.

It is for the upper
and lower jaw,

which is up and down...

I think.

"The two hexagrams (I-Ching) show
food as a natural process".

I'm dropping it!

Dad, you're turning off the light,
please?

We start the
quantum therapy.

Chava, and your cell phone,
please.

- Please turn it off.
- Put it in flight mode.

I want your attention,
a little, please?

We'll start the
Quantum therapy.

And... Esther, please.

We're just gonna hang up
our eyes.

We'll take a
deep breath...

and the ideal is to focus
on Tona's recovery.

Quantum energy
will come from outside...

and we need to be
receptive to it.

- For a few minutes.
- May I give you the cake?

- Sure.
- I'll leave you the box. Keep it.

Sure.

Sorry you hit us
on this,

but you're too early.

- You better be on time.
- So we don't hit traffic.

No, it's good of you to come.
We owe you a big thank you.

Well, we should all
close our eyes,

to breathe properly
and try to...

to keep the
your body open.

Now we can
close our eyes.

I'm scared.

We take breaths and
our thoughts turn to Tona.

Think of something beautiful
for Uncle Tona.

I'm not going out.

What if you put on a diaper?

I'll tell your sister.

Cruz.

You're gonna call
to your friend?

- So.
- Will you dress me now?

Let's see.

- Let me fix your hair, honey.
- No, Mom, no.

Okay, sit.

Let's take these off.

- It will rain, no...
- Damn. What are we going to do?

You should
bring them all in.

I told you
to rent a gazebo.

It cost a fortune
and I'm a rag to rag.

We're gonna get soaked.
What are we going to do?

We will carry
everything inside.

Daddy is insufferable.

We need to tell him to shoot
to tone it down a bit... rather a lot.

Let him not come to the celebration.

Wait, they're confused.

- Let's see.
- Put your hand first.

You've got it all mixed up.
Wait.

What did I tell you?

You had to do
your hair in a bun.

I'll do your hair.
Your mom's not doing it right.

Let's see.
What's that?

The sleeve.

You turned it upside down...
Stop drinking.

- Come here, honey.
- What a clown you are.

You're a nutcase too, aren't you?

There you go. Beautiful.

- Hi.
- Hi, how are you?

Okay.

- Nice to meet you.
- Hi.

Hello, sir.
How do you do? Good to see you.

I brought you a gift,
I hope you like it.

And thank you
for inviting me.

- This is Ivan.
- Hello, how are you?

- It's a pleasure to meet you.
- My whole family.

- Good evening.
- Hello.

The story of the beach boy?
Imagine Tona.

Blackened breasts,
a dug-up bathing suit,

walking down the street.

- Delicate, sensual.
- Pure vision, damn it.

But how did it come about?

They had a kind of festival,
every year...

they chose the most attractive
from each class,

and had a pageant,
like Miss Universe, but for boys.

You should have worn a bathing suit,
hence "beach boy."

Well, to the jokes
we told him: "Do it."

So, it was organized in high school,

and the representative of each
class, did a parade.

And who do you think
won?

- Of course.
- Tona!

There you go.

- I don't like this.
- You don't?

Put this on.

- Thank you, Bruce.
- You're welcome.

Let's look at this.

It'll do.

There you go.

You will be the soul
of the party.

My Rocky Tona.
Rocky Tona.

- What?
- No, I'm going back.

- Why?
- I'm gonna pee my pants.

My tuna.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

My dear family,
let me tell you a little bit.

I want to ask for your help,
to raise some money.

This piggy bank
is for Tona.

Leave him here
or shall I come in?

Thank you very much.

- Thank you, Uncle.
- Put it here, in the middle.

A little change,
for the piggy.

- Do you take cards?
- Sure, sure, sure.

Of course, it's just...
Okay.

- This, from the two of us.
- Thank you!

It's unbelievable.
Suits, dresses, shoes,

because then... Yes.

When it's very hot,
the pavement burns.

- We bought him some shoes.
- No, I didn't buy anything.

We bought him shoes, but
he can't walk in them.

Why are you alone?

Look at the lens.
Look here.

Look at the camera, Sol!

Cut it out!
Stop videotaping me!

Come on down! Come on down!

Leave me alone!

Solesito,
don't pay attention to them.

That's enough!
Leave me alone!

Let go of me!

Stop.
Let go of me!

- That's enough, Solesita.
- Calm down, Sol.

- It was just a joke.
- We were joking, honey.

I don't want a video.

Don't be mad, baby.
It's okay.

And if it's broken, that's okay.

Red card
for the drone!

Well, you know, about the accident,
but it's all good.

- Is Sol okay?
- Sol? Yeah, she's fine.

He must be experiencing a lot of
confusing emotions.

He rebels.

- Hello, sweetheart.
- Hello.

Why don't you come to the party?

Because your daddy
is getting ready.

Can I see him now?

Give me a moment
to look, okay?

Guess... you can.

Hi, Dad.

Hello, my pony.

Happy birthday.

Thank you, my pony.

Let me see you.

I got a little present for you.

Look, this is for you.

Oh, it's still...

- Drunk.
- It's a fresh color.

Do you like it?
It has all your favorite animals.

An owl.

Did you know that owls
have a little flashlight here,

so they can see
their prey and eat it?

Really? I didn't know.

And the snakes...

The snake, the most powerful
in the world is black...

and if it bites you...

- You're dead.
- Nauyaka, right?

Yes.

- Thank you very much.
- You're welcome.

You've lost a lot of weight.

I know, baby, that's why
I didn't want you to see me.

I painted it to
you can see it whenever you want,

because sometimes...

there are things you want
you really want to see but you can't.

But they stay inside you,
forever.

Did you know that the hummingbird is ringing
its wings a million times?

- Really?
- Yes.

You can't measure them
because they're like...

And they make noise,
right? They hum.

Hardly at all.

They have this beak and they fly
for flower nectar...

in a flower, but
they never tire,

because they're flapping their wings
so fast.

Hi.

- Who's here?
- Mom!

My baby.

What does the beautiful
my little Sol?

- I could hear your voice.
- That's it, in your beauty.

Where do you come from?

You know, from the theater.

- How you doing?
- How are you?

- It's good to see you, darling.
- You too.

What are you doing?

It's good to see you.
Be careful.

So do I.

Did you see the table that
I made for our baby girl?

Very handsome.

- Happy birthday to you.
- Thank you.

- I brought you a present.
- You did?

Me and this little girl,
we've got something special for you.

Yes?

A super surprise!

I was... speechless
with the painting.

For me he painted him.

And you know what?
Uncle Napo gave me a fish.

- Really? What's it called?
- Goldilocks.

- Where are they? Did you eat it?
- No!

- You ate it.
- No.

I left it outside.
In a jug.

- What color is it?
- Gold.

- What are we going to feed it?
- He has his food.

Yes, well,
close your eyes.

Don't look.
Don't look.

- Have I ever cheated on you?
- Now, look.

Right or left?

- If you know her, she'll be on the left.
- Left.

Sure, yes.

What is it?

I ate the world
to find it, especially for you.

For your birthday.

What's in it?

Show us what it is
and what we do.

Inside it has...

tamarind seeds.

And you do it like this.

You're turning it over,
you shake it and...

You have to say
what shapes you see.

I know.

A little smile,
the little eyes and the nose.

Or it may be
a beach with sunbeds.

What do you see?

I can see the horizon.

- On the beach.
- Horizon.

Up to there
as far as your eye can see.

- That's what I see.
- How about you, Mom?

I see a cloud from which
raindrops are falling.

That's it.

- Really?
- If you look at it this way.

There's the cloud, Dad.

I like it very much, thank you.

- What a nice gift.
- You're welcome.

You'll spend hours
looking for the shapes.

That's how it is.

Tuna.

My friend is here,
for what you asked for.

And my Ale...
cries.

We'd better go then.

Here we go for round 27, Rocky.

And those
who are coming, Tona.

What a round.

What a strange party.

All these Tona people.
Scary.

Hello, Ponchito.

I love you, my brother.

- Esther.
- Happy birthday, Uncle.

Thank you.

Hey, buddy...

What's up, man?

Come and celebrate with me.
I love you very much.

How nice to see you.

- Hello, Uncle.
- My nephew.

- Happy birthday.
- Thank you, Arielito.

Houli, you thought of it,
all this, right?

- Did you like your surprise?
- You're crazy, girlfriend,

I am deeply touched.

- Tona, Tona!
- Anita.

- Thank you.
- Happy birthday!

Thank you, everyone.

- Basallo!
- What's up, Tonare?

Funny to see my face
everywhere, I prefer to see you.

Thanks, sis,
for everything.

I love you so much, kid.

- We began to wonder, we missed you.
- Where have you been?

In the bathroom.

Put something in between.

- There, put a blanket over there.
- The mat for this.

So, the blanket
and then this.

- It's just between you and me, okay?
- It's all good.

- You never came here, did you?
- You got it.

It's over, Garnacha.

We brought the masks,
the balloons, everything.

We came to give you
to give you something.

And this,
is your gift.

It's an issue, always, but every
teacher has his favorite...

student and he was,
really mine.

You know I love you
a lot in that regard.

I've always talked to you
about Paulo Freire.

Teaching and learning
is an interactive process,

bidirectional.

And in this sense,
I apologize,

because I've been nagging you
for the bad karma he's got...

the name Tonatou (God of the Sun)
to a "white man".

Tonatou said the natives
Pedro de Alvarado,

the most bloodthirsty
of the conquistadors,

responsible for the massacre
of Cholula (10/1519)

and the massacre on the Great
Temple of Toxkuttle. (5/1520)

But in reality...

there is the bright
side of the Sun,

as there is a
sun of the underworld.

The Lacandon (Mayan tribe)
say that the jaguar is passing through.

Right now, it's going through.
It is the sun of the night.

But that sun,
the sun that shines...

even if it's him
of the middle of the day,

is not afraid of decadence.

He shines, without being sad,
for the sunset.

And so, Tonaya
became Tona,

through his work,
through his art.

- My soup is getting cold, Vassallo.
- All right, all right.

There's the jaguar's claw!

The jaguar's claw.

A sip for our ancestors.
Cheers!

What I would like
to say to Tona,

on his birthday,

is for the Tonalpowali,

which has the same root
with its name.

It is the ritual calendar
of the 260 days of Mesoamerica.

And... as already
Tona knows,

time in Mesoamerica
is cyclical.

Here, in this place,

the circle comes full circle at one point,
but it is not the same.

It's an upward spiral,

that passes
through different points,

despite what it seems
returning to the same.

So, in these special
birthday, Tona,

we are here,
in the same place,

but also somewhere else.

- Well done!
- Surrounding the sun again.

How mystical.

I don't know how to make speeches.

Well done!

I'm sorry.

Great speech!

Tona...

my friend...

you taught me
what love is,

through your friendship.

All trips
we've done together,

the astral,

geographical,

is all, part
of my map.

I love you.

Turn it on! Come on!

Turn it on!

Come on, Vassallo!

Careful, away
away from the paper.

Carefully...

It's gone, it's gone!

There you go!

As the horsemen say,
beauty is nothing but beautiful.

Let's go!

Fire, fire, fire!

Fly, fly!

Our offer is gone
to the gods.

Fly, fly...!

It's going down!

- It's going down!
- Watch out. Get out of the way!

- Careful, okay?
- No, no...!

Away from Basallo.

- You'll set him on fire. Look out!
- Watch out for the tree.

Throw everything you drink at him!

- Don't yell at me.
- Let me smell your breath.

- My breath?
- You're a gnat.

- I'm not.
- Nuri, please.

I had a few sips,
relax, man.

- Stop now. Come here.
- Why should I stop?

Come on, please.

That's why it's not
parties?

Exactly.
And you didn't even show up.

- I'm finishing the cake.
- Leave the cake now.

Tona's asking for you.
Let me wipe you down.

It's ridiculous.

Look how it is
your face, Nuri.

- Seriously.
- Don't stop, it's nice.

My God, what a mess.
Let me see.

Come on, have a coffee.

Girl, you're hot.
Please drink it.

Tona asked for you four times.
Will you come at last?

- Just for a little while.
- Let me finish the cake.

- The cake is ready.
- Not yet.

Don't drink. Just for a little while.
We're celebrating.

Look at you.

Go away.

- Why are you doing it?
- What? Leave me alone.

How long
have we been planning this party?

- Do something special for Tona.
- You know what?

We organized it because
you insisted.

Yeah, I wanted to do
a party for Tona.

I'm up to here,
with you telling me what to do.

I'm fed up. You want to control
everything in here.

- No.
- You know what? Get off.

Don't tell me to let go,
I won't.

You're the one who needs to get unstuck.
You always do what you want.

- Shut up.
- I'm not shutting up.

We're celebrating, not fighting
now, please.

Then leave me alone.
You're the one scratching your nails for a fight.

No, I'm here to pick you up.

- You came ready for a fight.
- I want you at the party.

I don't want to go.

- You don't want to?
- No.

Well, then, have the guts to go there
and tell Tona.

I'm sick of you.
And you know what?

- Why are you taking my bottle?
- Because you're drunk.

You've blown it!
Do whatever you want.

Okay, let's make
your hair,

to go to the party,
my little girl.

I don't want to go to the party,
Mom. I want to help you.

I have to finish
the cake, baby.

Mom, I don't want
to drink.

Only for today
that we celebrate.

Okay.

Very nice, darling.

- Go outside now, will you?
- Okay.

A little more, Mom.

No, darling,
I'm in a hurry.

- Go now.
- Okay.

I have a lot more.

- How much is it?
- Five months.

That's sweet. It could
a magazine cover.

- It's a male.
- Cats are amazing.

It's Esther's.

But he left it to us.

If you say so,
but you didn't take them.

- So, is your name Cayew?
- That's right.

In what language?
What does it mean?

My mom liked them a lot
the cartoon Caillou.

- Really?
- Yeah, and I'm left.

He is very kind and...

very emotional
character, so...

- Do you like your name?
- I like it.

I liked the character,
I slowly grew to love him.

Over the years.

Give me an hour.
One more hour.

Half. She needs to take her medication
and rest.

They're having a good time.
One more hour.

- Help me.
- I have to go.

No, stay. Just a little longer.
Just an hour.

- Did you eat anything?
- I pinched myself.

- Stay.
- Okay. Okay.

Give me a hand with Tona,
one hour.

Okay, but you're gonna
you're gonna help me.

You have two weeks
to pay me.

Excuse me.

- Forgive me.
- Don't worry.

- With the party and all...
- It's okay.

Let me see how much I have here.

- You'll drop it.
- Sorry, let's go.

There you go. Here.

Why don't you throw the cigarette away?
What did I tell you?

- There, it's gone.
- Cut it.

Listen, I promise...

that I'll give you the rest
next Friday, okay?

At least, better
than nothing.

Thank you for everything.
Sincerely.

Wait a minute.

Here's a few,
for my skinny one.

- Thank you, Bruce.
- You too.

What's the matter, Nuri?
Aren't you coming to my party?

I'm getting there, I promise.

What are you doing?

I'm making you a cake
but I don't want you to see it.

More surprises
for Tona.

Sit down.

- How's it going?
- Happy?

- Yeah, it's perfect.
- Yeah?

Yes, it was a pleasure.
to see everyone.

Sweetie, bug.

You look good with short hair.

To encourage you.

Thanks, but you know
I'm... hairy.

What's going on?
Come on, come on!

- Yeah, come on, you've been enslaved enough.
- A little more, I swear.

- You're unbearable. Come on. Come on.
- I'll be right back.

We'll wait for you, okay?

- Hurry up.
- I'm coming, I swear.

Tuna.

What is it, Dad?

I want to give you something.

I put it in one of the
your mom's pottery.

I've been taking care of it for eight years.

- I'm giving it to you as a gift.
- Thanks, Dad.

Surprises!

- What a wonderful gift.
- We're just kidding.

Then you'll put in an electric one.

Thank you,
you have given me great pleasure.

With the balloons and everything.

Same Jimmy Hendrix.

Dude, it's great.

Calm down, boys.

Congratulations, Tona.

Look, Esther.

And the other leg.

See our trick.

Now, we are only one.

Now, there are two of us.

Mia.

Two.

- You're gonna introduce us, okay?
- Yes!

- What can I say?
- Let's see, try it.

Welcome, everyone.

Women and men?

And now a song.

A song, a performance
and tell them,

- "I am the conductor of the orchestra."
- Yes.

Welcome,
ladies and gentlemen.

Today, we have a show,
for Uncle Tona.

Music, maestro!

- DJ Chava.
- Quiet, quiet!

Always get up.

We love you so much, man.

Come on, man.
It's all right.

All clear.
Come on, smile.

Come on, Uncle Tona!

It's all good, man.

What a day, huh?

Come on, Tona.

We love you, Tona.

- Yes!
- We love you, Tona.

We love you, Tona.
We love you.

- Uncle, do you want the cake?
- Yes, let's go for the cake.

I think I'm hungry.

The cake is ready!

Out of the way!

Wow, Mom!

How nice!

This is painting.
You should learn from your sister.

Thank you, Nuri.

Please, darling.

See, Dad?
So he can piss you off.

Yes, my brothers and sisters
are making fun of me.

A lot of breakage.

I want the same one,
but with mermaids.

Wish!

What should I wish for?
A pair of boots...

Make a wish!
Go ahead.

My wish is...

No more wishes.
