All language subtitles for Carmen.2022.

Carmen!

Emanuel!

Emanuel!

You're always asleep!
Open the door!

In the name of the Father,
Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Sit down.

Our children aren't
ours to keep,

they are God's.

If they sin,

they would be betraying
us and betraying God,

and if they do that,

throw them out.

The priest's sister.

- Carmen.
- Mm.

She's like the living dead.

She never smiles and
never speaks.

Can you blame her?

But that was long ago.

Imagine spending your life
with that!

Rise, and together,
let's sing praise to the Lord.

Thank you, dear Lord.

Capers! Who wants capers?

Fresh capers!

Look how beautiful they are!

Come for capers!
Who wants capers?

Look, It's an angel.

She's looking at me.

Are you a vision?

Come on down and taste.

Where did I put that?

Give me two.

For a smile I'll give you three.

Alright, alright.

A man must always try.

Even with a fridge.

Ha.

A person can get sick keeping
their love to themselves!

The biggest cause of
heart attacks is love held back.

Shh!

Francis! Francis!

You're deaf when you want to be.

Oh, my God!

Condolences.
May God comfort you.

I am so, so sorry.

Sorry.

She's alone now.

It's true he
was a miserable man,

but at least she had him.

What will she do now that Rita
will take her place?

If I cannot...

stay at the rectory,
where will I go?

God does not abandon
his children.

You are good,

dear Carmen,

and you will live
eternally in bliss.

When will that happen?

When will what happen?

Bliss.

When you die, of course.

Ah.

I have been my brother's
housekeeper from when I was 16,

- and...
- Yeah.

You are a blessing.

You are like,
um... Santa Zita,

patron saint of domestic work.

She used to say,

"A servant is not holy
if she is not busy;

"lazy people in our position..."

"...that
is fake holiness."

She said that?

Mm. In prayer,

you will find your way.

Father Anthony will
be arriving any day now.

He was ordained in Rome,

and he studied in England.

And we are blessed to have
him come back here to Malta,

and of course, his sister
Rita will take care of him.

Now, please.

I'm sure your family can
take care of you.

There is no one.

But this is Malta.

Everyone has family.

We are all family.

Carmen, the key?

To the rectory. My
brother will need one.

I think you have the other.

God bless you.

Hello?

You want me to follow?

Where are we going?

Where are we going?

Huh. Seriously?

Why have you forsaken me?

Hmm.

Oh.

Tonio.

Rita.

I can't.

I can't do this anymore.

Let's go away. Tomorrow,

I get my brother's boat,
and we can go

- to Blue Lagoon together.
- No. No, I can't.

My brother hasn't arrived yet,
and he wants the church

- to be ready.
- You're going to end up

your brother's keeper
all your life.

You're going to end up
just like Carmen.

She walks around looking
like she's carrying

a frozen lamb in her chest.

Well, I won't be like her,

but I can't be who
you want me to be, either.

- Rita, please.
- I can't see you anymore.

Rita. Rita! Rita!

Rita, please! Ah!

Damn the church!

Oh.

Elena...

Dear blessed Jesus,

help me.

Tell me what to do.

I have a frozen lamb
in my heart,

and I don't know how to melt it.

Ooh.

I still have so much to do.

I haven't even prepared
food yet.

Oh. He's already in there.

He's early today.

He knew he had to get her early
with all the sins you have.

Ah, yes.

You better go first.

Remember, speak English.

Oh, yes.

God help me.

Sorry, Father.

My English,

it is not so good,

but I try.

Father?

Uh-huh.

Father, I have...

bad thoughts in my
mind about my husband.

Every night, he come home drunk,

and he smell of whiskey.

And I say in my heart,

"It is nice if, one day,
he don't come home,

and I sleep in the bed alone,
and I don't smell the whiskey."

- Ah.
- He force me...

to... you know...

and... and I don't want...

Every night.

Please, Father,
tell me what to do.

If I stay one more
night with my husband,

I will die.

God is not evil.

It is man.

Father, sorry?

Go home...
to your husband.

Make him the same food for
breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Do that until he
doesn't come back.

- But... but...
- No buts. Go.

Okay. Thank you, Father.

God bless.

That was long.

I have to go home.

What happened?

Nothing,
I just have to go home and cook.

He's a smart one,
this new priest.

Uh-huh?

Smart and with a voice like
the virgin Mary.

And how do you know what
the virgin Mary sounds like?

If they gave her a voice,
that's what she'd sound like.

He's so smart and has
such a sweet voice.

I have to go.

See you.

Okay. See you later.

You won't have enough for food

if you empty
your purse like that.

The more we give,
the more we get.

When you learn how
to feed 12 with one fish,

come teach me.

I will.

Forgive me, Father.

That's okay.

I'm fine now.

Thank you, Father.

God bless.

I will pay you back.

I promise.

You know the house
where the teacher lived?

Uh-huh.

The one back there, right?

An Arab family moved in.

Isn't that better? They
create business, open shops.

They can do what
the hell they want,

as long as they don't bother me.

I want a clean Malta.

Why do you dislike foreigners?

Don't they need
to live, just like us?

Malta belongs to the Maltese.

Isn't it ours still?

Remember when we
didn't lock our doors?

Those were different times.

Today, all I do is carry
keys and lock doors.

Joey! Joe!

Joey! Stop that
noise and come home!

Always up to mischief!

Hey!

What's your problem?

Can't I have a beer?

You're so annoying! I
was going to win!

Joe! I beat you!

There will not be any mass until
further notice

but you are welcome to confess.

Shh!

Shh!

Go, Andrew.
Go. Shh, shh.

- Quiet.
- Forgive me, Father,

for I have sinned.

I took some money from
my brother's piggy bank.

You must put the money back
and double the amount.

- Double?
- Are you not sorry

for your sin?

- Yes, Father, but...
- Or you can clean the church

for two months.

Okay. I put the money back.

Good boy.

Quiet.

Forgive me, Father,

for I have sinned,

and I haven't been to
confession for a long time.

My mother died,

and my father said God is evil

for taking my mother
away from us.

Is God evil, Father?

God isn't evil.

God is very tired,

and when we are tired,

we make big mistakes.

I want you to sing
to your father

every night and every morning,

and keep singing until
he sings with you.

Do you understand?

Yes, Father.

I understand.

Forgive me, Father,

for I have sinned,

because I didn't do
my homework for one week.

Forgive me, Father,

for I have sinned. I
stole my sister's toy.

Forgive me, Father,

for I have sinned. I fought
with my sister yesterday,

and I feel sorry about it.

Quiet.

Keep in a single file.

Stay in line.

- Rosa!
- Go back to your mother.

Leave my mother out of this!

How can I? She's
all you think about.

What do you want me to do?

Be a man.

Be a man and say no.

Rosa!

In the name of the Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit.

It is a miracle.

I did what you say me.

I cook the same food
in the morning,

at 12 o'clock, at night.

At first, he was angry.

He shout a lot,

and then, he eat nothing.

And one day,

he did not come home.

Good.

Yes, Father.

Now, I am so light and happy,

and I have a lot of
love in my heart.

What to do now?

I don't want him back.

I don't miss him.

Missing.

He is missing?

Yes.

Yes! Missing person!

I will put up
the signs everywhere,

and when he's seeing
them, he will feel shame.

And he will go
more and more away.

I will do that. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.

A few Hail Marys.

Oh, a day full of Hail Marys.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

You dropped your hanky.

Can you tell me
what you picked up?

We've come to welcome
the new priest.

Hurry! Hurry!

Listen. She got rid of
her husband without a sin!

Without separation.

A miracle.

I like this priest. No mass
and always a good ear.

Behind the alter,

there is a room.

In that room,

there is a small door
on the wall.

Open the door,

and inside is a key.

Take the key

and open the collection box.

Take all of the money inside...

...and get a ticket to Rome.

When you get there,

go to the Cavalieri
di Malta keyhole,

stand and sing.

I am sure someone
will guide you.

Yes, Father.

Your brother is
a saint, a saviour.

He's here?

Of course.

What in the name of God
do you think you're doing?

My nylons were itchy.

You will rot in hell for this.

- Let me explain.
- No.

You need to go. Now.

Where's my brother?

What have you done with him?

He never came. Ha.

Maybe he ran away.

That's not possible.

Rita. Rita!

No none can blame
you for falling in love.

It is rare and beautiful.

Go. Go and find
your bell ringer.

I can't.

Why?

I have to wait for my brother.

Father will never speak to me
again if I abandon him.

And what does your father
speak to you about now?

How is the cooking
and the cleaning going

for your dear old brother?

You need to go! Now!

Sorry, Jesus.

Your underwear.

No mass and no bells.

Not much of a church anymore...

If the bells don't ring,
the angels won't come down.

It's broken.

We need to take it to Valletta.

- Valletta?
- Mm. To fix it,

because they have the parts.

But it's far.

Valletta?

Yes.

Sorry.

Guide me.

Hello?

May I help you?

Uh, were you looking for me?

I have some things
you might like to buy,

nice gold things
I don't need anymore.

Things you don't need? Okay.

I can see why you don't
need these things.

How did you acquire these?

My brother, he passed away.

Um, they were his.

He was a holy man, your brother?

Very holy.

Don't these holy
things belong in a church?

He had some extra holy things.

I see.

No, that's not for sale.

That's a bell ringer.

Like, from a church?

Okay. Okay.

How much would you like for
these extra holy things?

I don't know.

How much can you give?

Sorry.

Let me check with my
books in the back.

Whoa. Whoa. Are
you alright?

I am fine. Thank you.

No. No, you're not.

Please.

Okay. Um...

You're hungry,

and I was just about to
make some food for myself.

- Why don't you eat with me?
- Oh, no. I don't want to be

- any trouble.
- You're not any trouble at all.

It'll just take a few
minutes, but I only have

leftovers, though. I
hope that's okay.

That's fine.

And I only have wine to drink.

That's okay.

You came to the right place.

This is pretty much the
only pawn shop on the island.

What?

Would you like some more wine?

If it's no trouble.

It's no trouble at all.

Thank you.

You are American?

No. My mother's Maltese,

and my father's Canadian.
And they're both

back home in Canada,
and I decided

to take over the
shop from my Nanna Maria.

I'm feeling a bit dizzy.

Why are you so kind?

Oh. It's nothing.

I shouldn't have given
you so much wine.

Thank you.

Do you need me to call someone?

Um... there is no one.

Oh.

I don't know your name.
What's your name?

Carmen.

My name's Paulo.

Oh, that's a nice Maltese name.

San Pawl and his shipwreck.

Paulo?

That is too much.

Oh, no. There's a lot
of gold in that chalice

and a lot of holiness, too.

I cannot take that.

Why not?

I never saw so much
money in my life.

Well, you're entitled
to it. Here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Where are you going? Here.

I'm coming.

When did you notice things
were missing?

This morning.

What was taken?

Um, candlesticks, a chalice,

and the money from the
collection box.

How can that be?

Money from the collection box?

Looks like you do
great business here in church.

I keep this for evidence.

So, this woman you
told me about...

Yes. A witch.

She was giving absolution.

Great sin.

I think she's so lonely

that she called on the
devil to keep her company.

- You can do that?
- Do what?

There's... there's a
number to call the devil?

Joking in this way
is blasphemous.

I'm
sorry. I'm sorry.

Forgive me, Jesus. Uh, please.

I gently guided her out
the door, and I started dusting.

And that's when I saw
the things were missing.

Why didn't you
come to me sooner?

You were having an early siesta.

Not much happens in
the mornings!

I need my sleep for wild nights.

I go boogie at the
disco with the ladies,

you know?

Anyway, uh, can you tell me
a description of this woman?

Yes. She walks around

like she has a frozen
lamb in her chest.

She's old. She has a soft voice,
like she has too many secrets,

and she has big hands,
like man hands.

- Big hands.
- Yes, yes,

and she's a bit taller than me.

Her name is Carmen.

The dead priest's sister.

Carmen? Father Francis's sister?

Why didn't you tell me before?

I know Carmen.

She is not as you described.

I remember her well. When she
was younger, she was hot.

It's going to be okay.

We're going to look for Carmen.

We'll find her. Don't worry.

In the meantime,

I'm going to smoke a cigarette.

Ah. One last thing.

Could you lock the door?
Because I had my key,

and I don't know where it is.
I prayed to Saint Anthony

to find it for me, but
he still didn't find it.

Yes, of course.

Hey! Hello, ma!

Paulo.

Hey!

Hi! So happy to see you again.

Really?

Um... Uh, can I...

Can I grab you a tea or...?

Uh... You have some more wine?

Wine?

Hop on!

Uh...

You're going to
want to put your hands

around my waist. Yeah.

Paulo!

Hi, Tom!

All my life,

I wanted to ring the
church bell.

But... the church

doesn't allow women
to ring the bell.

And now, our village
bell is broken.

Hmm.

Yeah. My Nanna didn't even like
talking about the war,

but one thing she said was,

it made your annoying neighbours
not so annoying anymore.

We needed each other.

We thought we were too small

to mean anything to
the rest of the world.

They bombed us
every second hour.

One day, I was running
to the shelter,

and the German
pilot flew so close

I could see the
colour of his eyes.

And then, a boy grabbed my hand,

and he pulled me into a corner.

And the pilot dropped a
bomb on the shelter,

killing everyone inside.

That, um...

That boy who saved your life,

who was he?

I never saw him again
until the victory parade,

um, when the war was over.

Hmm.

Ahmad.

An Arab?

Yes.

Hmm.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

Cheers.

- Ah.
- It's very good.

May I?

What?

Uh, was that okay?

I don't know.

What is it?

I am so much older than you.

Souls don't know time or place.

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Carmen! Wait! What's wrong?

Hey! Hey! Hey!
What... what is it?

What?

It's just a dream.

We... we can go now.

Should I take you home?

I left my bag in your shop.

Okay.

I will get my bag.

See you.

I'll see you soon.

I look forward to it.

Paulo?

Paulo!

Hey!

It is your mother?

What? No, no! This is my friend.

This is Carmen.

Carmen this is Genevieve.

- Pleased to meet you.
- I...

Oh, Carmen! Carmen! Carmen!

I'm such a fool!

Dirty creature!

A cacophony of emotions.

I hope you don't
mind a stolen good.

It's the thought
that counts, right?

Thank you.

That's better.

You're young Paulo's friend?

Yes. I saw the two
of you walking.

You'll be alright, then?

I'm fine.

Good to know.

Well, then, I'd better be off.

I'll take the boat out and
hope to catch a breeze.

Your boat?

Yes.

Hello?

Is this the rectory?
I'm looking for Carmen.

Carmen?

She doesn't live here anymore,

but if you see her,
call the police.

Wait. I'm... I'm sorry.

I think I have the wrong person.

No, no. Carmen.

I know who you're talking about.

She stole from the church.
She stole candlesticks

and a chalice.

She sold them to me.

She showed up out of nowhere
at my shop in Valletta.

See? Police here
do nothing but sleep.

I'm going to find her.

You bring the chalice and
candlesticks back to the church.

Cheers.

To the most beautiful siren.

- Siren a?
- Mm. They lure sailors in

and have them
crash to the shore.

Oh, that's not me.

Let's hope not.

The Arab.

Uh... I didn't
see a wedding band.

Is there a boyfriend?

Hope it's not Paulo.

Nice enough bloke, but
a little young, huh?

- No.
- A little odd, too.

Of course not.

A beautiful woman like you

and no one to tuck
you in at night?

Thank you.

You must be getting cold.

No, I'm okay.

Well, drink up.

That'll warm you.

- Oh.
- Whoa!

Oh. I'm sorry!

No!

- We can go now!
- What's this game

- you're playing?
- Game?

You didn't get on my
boat for nothing.

- Please stop!
- I'm not going to hurt you!

Stop! Get away from me!

God! You Maltese women!

Always playing hard to get.

Nothing wrong with a bit of fun.

Two lonely people?

- I'm not lonely.
- No?

- No.
- Come on.

No! Go away! Get off me!

- There we are.
- Go away!

Come on.

Don't be a fool!
I was only playing with you!

Go away!

- Come on!
- No. Ah!

Suit yourself, bloody Maltese!

Carmen! Carmen!

Carmen!

Did you want to drown yourself?

To drown yourself,

it's a great sin.

Sin? Sin?

All you ever talk about is sin!

You have no idea about sin.

I'm sorry.

You were right about my brother.

He's not coming.

Why don't you
have anywhere to live?

You don't have anyone?

You have no one?

I was 16.

I fell in love.

Ahmad.

He was an Arab.

A proud Arab.

Always wore his turban.

My father, my grandfather,

and my great grandfather,

they did not like Arabs.

But my love was...
bigger than them.

This destroyed my father.

He sent me to be my brother's
maid in the rectory.

I would try to see
Ahmad whenever I could.

People talk.

They told my father...

I was seen with the Arab boy.

We planned to
run away to Tunisia.

And the morning of our escape,

they found Ahmad at the
bottom of the cliff.

They told me he killed himself.

Careful.

I need to see Tonio.

I must see Tonio!

Tonio!

Tonio!

Tonio is not here!

He went to Catania with Zaren.

I'll get you there, Rita.

Faster! Faster!

Tonio!

Go!

Tonio!

Tonio!

- Rita!
- Tonio!

Rita!

Oh, Rita.

Rita.

Carmen!

Stop!

You're wanted at the church.

Hi.

What is going on?

Remember your wish?
