THE ALMOST TRUE STORY
OF PEPITA, THE GUNSLINGER
I never thought all this would be so important.
Newspapers, television...
Faster, Jimena!
I didn't think much about it.
I was also surprised by it.
She's out of breath, she's out of breath!
Jimena?
Jimena?
Got you!
I'm coming to get you!
Come here!
This girl of mine...
No, Jimena!
Don't make me run after you! I'll catch you!
Mom, why are you and Dad splitting?
Dad's sick, you've seen him.
And who will I stay with?
With nobody. With me, Jimena, of course!
So... will I have two bikes?
Two bikes? I don't know.
Two homes, two beds, two bedrooms...
And Dad, and school?
The school will stay the same.
I told you, we have to wait until we know where will dad go.
Hi, Gastรณn.
I brought you the girl.
Say hi to Dad.
Hi, Dad, how are you?
Everything all right?
You look better.
- Mom... - What?
Why doesn't he speak?
I don't know.
Maybe his mind is elsewhere.
Are you his wife?
Yes.
- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon.
We're kindly asking the patients' relatives if they can help us.
As you can see, we're missing light bulbs, soap,
toilet paper, cotton pads...
So we're asking for some help from you.
That's not going to be possible...
I'm unemployed... I'm looking for a job all day long.
Still, you need to help us out.
We are also raising funds for...
I'm going to have to divorce, Rosario.
It's awful. If Mom were here, I'd never have done it.
It would have been awful to her. You hear me?
- Yes! - He's not doing well...
Yes! Roberto!
- He doesn't even speak now. - Roberto is hammering...
I'll have to divorce, Rosario...
- I wish I was the one in the hospital. - Yes, sure, sure...
To throw myself under a train...
Yes, of course, yes, that's so nice!
Listen... I need more.
More what?
- More money, Rosario. - No, no. I can't.
I'll give it back this time.
No, no. Roberto is here. I can't now.
You know what? I got a job.
Get these clothespins! Useful in every household.
In the consulate of Denmark.
- Or these garbage bags! - No, no.
A beautiful building.
- A baby bottle! - As secretary to the consul.
Please, go away now.
I come and go as I please. I don't have a schedule.
The girl's very happy, too.
We come and go as we please.
We do lots of public relations.
Of course! It's much more prestigious.
Can I send the girl to you?
No, no. I can't right now.
Roberto is here.
I'll have to take her out of school, then.
No, no. Don't do that.
Send her over to me, then.
Do you work in Denmark?
No. But I can't tell her I sell things from shop to shop.
I'll fix it.
- But it's broken! - It doesn't matter.
- It's broken, Mom! - I'll fix it!
The bag is also broken...
Help me out.
I'll give you my wallet, you'll get the money from your aunt.
Keep it safe.
As friends who love each other...
The romantic date at moonlight!
Margarita...
I had everything money can buy.
Love, never.
My mother died young, and my father never thought of me.
When I reached him, he'd open his wallet. Nothing more.
Now my life is different.
You are in my life!
- Would you enter my life for good? - I don't belong in your milieu...
Neither do I!
You are the son of a great family.
No... Of a great fortune.
- I am... - You are joy, sweetness, love!
Without my family and its fortune. What do I care about them?
When you love me, Margarita... The day you love me...
Nobody will be richer than me.
That's Walter.
Ask who it is before opening.
Who is it?
Walter!
- It's Walter. - Ask Walter who?
- It's Walter, mom. - Yes, but ask!
Walter who?
Walter, my darling! I'm getting wet!
Walter who?
The Prince of the Camellias!
It's the... the Prince of the Camellias.
Can I come in? I brought these chocolates
to sweeten the moments we'll spend... together.
The problem was that... The most important thing...
I was ashamed.
I don't know how to say it...
I wasn't from Walter's milieu.
He was the son of a great fortune.
And I...
I wasn't...
Yes, I was ashamed. I felt as if...
as if it were a crime...
to be poor.
I thought: if I would just tell him,
tell him what I'm going through, how will he take it?
There was an age difference between us.
Well, I need to go. It's eleven already.
Why don't you come? Stay a little while.
Because it's eleven.
And... he could have thought I was using him,
that I wanted his money.
I don't know. He was sentimental.
A romantic... I'm also sentimental, but...
But he took it too far.
He'd bring flowers to me, all the time!
I'd forget a date, but he'd come with flowers.
That was very important to me.
More than if he had given me money.
Finish up, we need to go to school.
Again, mom?
I thought what would happen if I told him
that I go hungry, for example.
That would have been horrible to him.
Go on! I made it with oil and salt.
I don't like it!
He'd be so upset...
Finish it and I'll buy you a skateboard!
A color TV would be better.
OK.
I'll get you a color TV.
I also couldn't tell him to stay home with me.
That'd have been hard for the girl.
He's not her father...
He's good but he's too old!
- Who? - The old man!
- What old man? - The old man!
Walter?
Yes, he's too old, we'll be alone because he's going to die.
Such a difficult situation... I don't know...
So I decided it would be best if we got married.
Married! Yes, married.
But does he know?
No.
So I had to had my hair done, I had to dress well...
He paid attention to all that, all the time.
What dress I was wearing, the clothes... The colors!
The colors of... - 350.000 pesos.
Look at this silk, these buttons... This is an exclusive model.
Brought from Buenos Aires. 350.000 pesos.
I like it...
I don't know...
My husband's away at the moment. A business trip.
Can you wait for me a moment?
It was a very hard moment.
Look...
I'll tell you something I never told anybody.
I had started to take Gastรณn's pills.
Gastรณn, my husband. I was taking his pills.
I don't know, I was thinking that... Maybe...
they could be of use to me as well.
To get something done.
I looked around and saw men. Men everywhere.
How could I dare...
In fact...
I always say: we have one body, but it's as if we were several people.
Sometimes we're strong, but sometimes...
I don't know if it was the effect of the pills or not.
LOANS
In the end... I dared.
Sometimes you're the strong one.
Sometimes you're the weak one.
CASH REGISTER Sometimes, you...
TO LIVE WITH DIGNITY
SCHOOLTEACHERS... GOING EXTINCT?
LOANS
Hello, how can I help you?
Hello.
I'd like to take out a loan.
We have a new plan in two installments, no surcharge.
Or six installments, where you start paying 30 days after the buy.
- With us, you don't need... - Give me the money.
Exactly. A great thing about our loans is that you don't do a deposit.
You didn't get me.
So you need only show your ID and a certificate of domicile...
I'm robbing you.
This is a robbery.
Make it quick.
Quick, give me the money.
Quick!
But I don't... I don't... I don't have money here.
- I don't have any money. - Hand it over.
I can't give you the money.
I'm not alone.
I have two men outside.
Waiting for me. Don't look!
If you don't give me the money, they'll come in.
And there will be trouble. Got it?
Yes. I'll open a drawer where the money is.
Yes. Act natural.
Stay still for fifteen minutes.
Got it?
Thank you.
- Get going. - Yes.
Want some?
Yes, thank you.
So?
You're nervous.
Heartsick, huh?
I can imagine your problems.
I can tell, I carry lots of people.
People tell me all sorts of things.
Here's fine, thank you.
- But no, wait... - Stop. Thank you.
But hey, wait, don't go...
I was so nervous...
So nervous!
I think I was more nervous than her...
Yes...
My mother died... She died a little while ago.
I think I'd never have done it if she was still alive.
I wouldn't have wanted to upset her.
We were...
so close...
My mother was the greatest.
Even just a little extra money... She'd put it aside.
In a socket.
And if I was needing something, she'd give it to me.
I didn't even have to ask.
I loved her so much.
So I did lots of things in life.
Like that.
I remember my niece's wedding.
I was putting on some makeup,
thinking: I don't want to go.
There'd be plenty of girls the same age as...
the girls from those houses... So if one of them...
I don't want to go.
- I don't want to go. - Then let's not go!
I was screaming...
I was very nervous.
Or in the coffee shop, with Walter.
Do you like this place? It's nice, right?
All my colleagues from the bank come here.
Yes! Look, there's two of them.
If somebody saw me, they'd turn me in.
They'd recognize me.
What's wrong? Are you nervous?
So I decided I'd never do it again.
I like it, but I don't know if it's enough.
It's for a...
special occasion.
- Don't be silly! - Want some more?
No, thanks.
I'll ask you a question. Sorry if it seems odd.
Tell me.
How is it that everything is so tasty?
- Thanks so much. - You're silly!
It's a perfect night.
- What's the name of this man? - Walter. Don't you remember him?
Ah, yes, he's an idiot!
She's so well-behaved! She's lovely!
Back to the news. Another robbery in the downtown area.
A dangerous woman committed a daring robbery yesterday.
At 1:50 PM, in a well-established loan agency
in July 18th Avenue,
a woman of some 35 years of age quietly entered the premises.
Seeing that nobody had noticed her, she produced a 22mm hand gun,
and forced the cashier to give her the money,
while threatening to kill her.
So I had to go see how the girls were doing.
I remember that day perfectly.
It was around 4:10.
I remember perfectly. It was raining like hell.
It was awful.
Even my soul was soaked.
It's not that I couldn't keep my promise.
But I had stolen too little from that place.
And then they cut my electricity.
I don't have a man at home.
"The man of the house"!
As a girl, I wouldn't enter a room if it was dark.
I was more afraid than those girls. I was trembling inside.
Hello.
It was worth it not to keep my promise. I liked that loan agency best.
That's all I have.
Don't worry, I won't hurt you.
Two men are outside.
Don't look!
I'm being watched.
They're armed.
They've led you astray.
They threaten me!
Me...
And my son.
- Can't you tell them off? - No!
One of them is my son's father.
- That sucks. - I have three sons.
The youngest one is two years old.
They took him away two weeks ago.
They kidnapped him!
Last I saw him...
- He had whooping cough. - The poor thing!
See that car outside? Be discreet.
Which one?
The red van!
- Yes, I see it. - Note down the license plate number.
Note it down!
521 950.
5 2 1 9 5 0.
One of them is crossing the street! He's crossing!
They're called China man and Goatee.
Please.
When the police comes,
tell them we'll make a stop at the bar St. Catalina.
St. Catalina.
Got it? China man and Goatee.
Around 4:30 they hang out there.
I don't have a minute to myself. They put me in the van,
and drop me in these loan agencies.
Give us 15 minutes!
Let me see... Yes, it's half past.
- No, make that 20! - Got it.
Behave.
Last time we had trouble.
Please go! They're getting down!
Don't hang out here.
You're a very easy target.
- Why don't you get a guard? - I've been saying that, but...
- They didn't listen to you. - Go, go now!
Ok.
- Thanks, girls. - Sure. Don't worry.
- Bye. - Bye.
Why wasn't there a guard?
There should at least have been a man in there.
Men make a big impression on me.
Had there been a man there, I'd never ever have dared.
I told them this.
But I didn't want to insist. I felt I was being pushy.
The van stayed there all afternoon, until the closure of the agency.
When they were gone, we came here.
5 2 1 9 5 0.
- She was pointing a gun at us. - 521 950.
Ernesto Kvetcher.
Gallic Street, 3340.
Is that you, Ernesto?
He says he doesn't have a red van.
See? It was as she said. It was the green truck in front!
No, it was the red van, in front of it was the green truck!
It's as we told you, 521950.
It was green!
A Citroen!
Mr. Inspector, don't listen to her, she's new.
I was very happy that day.
I had only 100 pesos before.
First thing I did
was buy a color TV.
If you dislike masterful plots...
If you're afraid of suspense...
If you have nightmares...
We don't recommend the Black Series!
Black Series. The greatest noir fiction writers of the 20s and 30s!
Fourteen... Fifteen... Look, this note is broken.
Is it still valid?
Yeah, I'd say it still does.
All's here. As for rent and the school fee,
Roberto didn't notice, so it's on the house.
Here's the electricity invoice. See?
It's written I didn't pay last month.
But I paid, remember?
Of course! It's a mistake, it'll sort itself out.
Don't worry, it's just a mistake.
It's just that. It'll be fine.
Once more, a fearless robbery took place in the capital.
Don't fret about it! You know what's wrong?
The same beautiful blond with delicate manners
and amazing cold blood
didn't hesitate to walk in front of the police station
...make it warmer, add heating...
...to commit this second crime.
Several girls present on site gave a colorful description of the burglar
and the planimetry department of the anti-crime unit used it
to sketch a portrait of the girl, who is very similar to the author
of similar crimes in the same downtown area.
- You got a new hat! - Yes! Not just a hat...
Look!
That thief looks just like you.
Susana!
The thief probably has a congenital defect in her right hand.
She may even be lacking it.
All the witnesses declare she keeps it hidden in a bag.
We know it is a woman with a quite obvious physical defect.
She follows orders by a band of people, or is pressured by them.
They will be disbanded by our forces in the coming days.
We have clues: their cars, license plates, car colors.
We are very optimistic that we will find them.
But I have two hands!
China man was a boy from the neighborhood, when I was a kid.
He wasn't Chinese, but people called his mother "Chinawoman".
So he was the China man.
That's the origin. I came up with Goatee right there.
That's how they called my brother when he was a kid.
He got the idea to start shaving when he was 8.
I don't know.
I felt some kind of support.
I liked it.
And from what I heard, I wasn't the only one.
POLICE
Bad news for Huracรกn, they've been hammered
in the first three matches of the competition.
Goal!
That's the China man! Over there!
Front shot.
This is all you have?
Yes... We just sent money away to be deposited.
- No, this is not enough. - This is all I have.
No, this won't be enough.
- Good morning, miss. - Good morning.
At least it's something.
You need to pay 60 000 pesos.
- It's wrong! - What do you mean?
I asked for 100 000 pesos. And you make me pay...
Why don't you come another day?
That's because you chose two installments.
I took out 100 000 and you want to charge me 120 000! It's a scam!
- I don't know... Patricia! - Just drop it.
Give it a shot.
I can't pay these extra 20 000!
You're thieves, miss!
Excuse my language, but you're crooks!
I won't pay! No way. I won't.
Miss! Beware. They're thieves!
Be careful! Don't make business with them.
Unbelievable! They take advantage of old people.
It's an outrage.
We don't take advantage, madam.
It was really too little.
But this girl... "Come back another day"!
My fridge had broken.
Everything was wet. The kitchen, the floor.
I had to come up with something.
Welcome.
Hello. Can we help you?
Yes. Give me your money.
Excuse me! I'm sorry, madam.
What are you doing? Go, go!
Do you want some chocolate milk?
No, thanks, Mom. This jello is yummy!
Who bought the fridge?
The old guy.
It wasn't mom. He bought it.
It is believed it was not a woman but a transvestite
who committed the spectacular robbery
against a renowned shoe shop this morning.
The police are pursuing this investigation in that direction
in order to find him.
The prosecutors believe it is a transvestite,
so the law enforcement department has been asked
to produce an analysis of known pederasts and their records.
Meanwhile, the crime investigators have produced an identikit
of the robber or robberess.
I don't know Pepita the Gunslinger!
But tell the others to let us do our jobs! Come on!
We lost two hotel nights!
We have been informed that the theft division
that after the analysis is done they will be able to identify
and capture this Attila of shops in Montevideo.
I sometimes thought what if while I was in these loan agencies
somebody who knows me went in.
Susana! Hey, what's up!
- "Fine, just robbing this place"? - How's the girl?
- Doing great, huh? - Excuse me, sir. Do you know her?
Her? Yes, sure.
Why?
I have a family. A daughter.
I think so much of my mother.
The money.
No.
They force me to!
I don't care.
China man!
- Whooping cough. - I don't care.
Since that day, I didn't go robbing on Saturdays.
It brought bad luck. - Let me see your ID, madam.
I lost it.
I lost everything. My ID, my passport, everything.
I even lost my checkbook.
- We need an ID, madam. - I lost it at the supermarket.
It was 3:35. I remember perfectly because I have to go pick up my kid.
And I want to stop by the bank first, to block the checkbook.
- I'll go to the station to report it. - OK. You may go.
Madam. Let us see your ID, please.
So on Saturdays, we'd go to Piriรกpolis, to Walter's place.
The day you love me
there will be naught but harmony,
The dawn will be fair.
And the joyous spring
will bring the quiet breeze,
rumor of melodies.
And the fountains will give us
their crystal song.
The day you love me
The singing bird will sweeten its strings.
Life will bloom.
Pain will vanish.
- Don't look at me like that... - You come rob me again?
I'm still under threat.
This is the last time. I'm going to Buenos Aires.
Listen... I don't have much money.
It's early. I swear I have little.
But I need the money!
Don't you want an instant loan?
I can help you that way.
No, I can't do that.
- Come on, quick. - This is too much. They'll fire me!
Stay cool!
I know, I got an idea.
I'll lend you money, OK? It's almost payday, so I'll manage.
You'll give it back later, when it suits you.
I can't, I'm going to Buenos Aires, I'm telling you.
Note down the license plate.
Speaking of that, hear me out.
Last time you supposedly gave us a license plate of a red van.
We went to the police station, we told the officer everything,
but that license plate number does not correspond to a red van!
It corresponds to an Isetta. I don't understand.
You really told them it was a red van?
But that's what you said!
No wonder they didn't find them.
It wasn't the red van. The red van was just there.
But next to the red van was a light truck.
- A green one! - Yes.
See? See?
It was a green Renault light truck.
- It was a red van! - It's your fault if you got it wrong.
- I wrote what you said. - I understand why they weren't found.
And the boy?
The boy?
The boy's fine.
My mom found him.
- Is he doing better? - Yes, he is.
I'm expected at the bus station.
In two blocks I'll throw myself from the car,
and run to the bus station.
- You'd do that? - Yes.
That's why I need the money now.
OK, then. I'll give you the money.
- But it's not much. - OK, gimme.
This is all we have.
It's not much, but I'll manage.
- You have the license? - You didn't say it!
169 547.
- Thanks, bye! - Thanks.
179 thousand and...?
Unlike the other robberies, this time, this blond woman
whom we could call a worthy daughter of Pepita, the Gunslinger,
this mysterious robber took out her handgun to face her victims,
something she had not done in the past.
Yesterday afternoon, the downtown bus station
was literally paralyzed by the police operations
under the command of Officer Gonzรกlez
in order to determine the whereabouts of the lady.
Pepita, the Gunslinger stated her will to leave the country.
For this reason, all borders, especially the ones leading to Buenos Aires,
for that would be the destination of the assailant,
are being closely examined as of this moment.
Bad examples, unfortunately, spread fast,
and if Pepita the Gunslinger has a penchant for loan agencies,
a copycat has appeared,
that started yesterday specializing in robbing taxi drivers.
As our sources in the police indicate, yesterday, after midnight,
at the crossing of Brandzen and Arenal Grande streets,
taxi number 22 033
was boarded by a woman going to E. Castro. and Cno. Casavalle.
Once there, the woman pressed against the neck of the driver
a metallic object which could be a handgun,
threatening him, and taking 3000 pesos from him.
You thought you'd get away!
Hello!
Jimena! I'll cut the bell for you so you can play at home.
How are you doing, Josรฉ?
Good, darling. Getting by.
What lottery numbers do you have?
I got them all! All 100 of them. Which one do you like?
The winning one.
That's a good one!
- Please get me a kilo of yerba mate. - I don't have the big ones.
I may have half a kilo packages.
That'll do.
Finally, the police have discovered the identity of Pepita, the Gunslinger.
The woman whose traits are the same as those of the assailant
called Pepita, the Gunslinger, was detained by Interpol.
You got lucky! It's my last package.
The woman has a defect in her right hand.
Pepita the Gunslinger!
Her nails and the polish in her right hand are the same.
Her face...
I'm not sure...
The scarf is the same.
The bag's identical.
Yes.
It's her.
It's her.
But she looks a bit different... I don't know.
The hair's different.
Tell me, have you ever worn a wig?
- A wig? - When did you last cut your bangs?
- I'm not sure... A month ago. - Who cut them?
It was... at the alley.
- Out of the main road. - At an alley in Cerro Chato.
That's not enough. Tell me who cut it, not where.
The girl who cut my hair lives in the alley
out of the main road. At the end.
So?
I was taken there by... by the mother of...
The majority of witnesses recognizes the handbag of Luz Aguilera
as the same one used by Pepita, the Gunslinger.
Despite fiercely denying it,
the woman has been recognized by three of the witnesses involved,
victims of the cinematographic robberies.
An individual romantically involved with the suspect has also been detained.
His singular oblique eyes would justify his nickname, "China man".
This was the nickname used by Pepita to name her accomplice.
The couple was detained while trying to get to Argentina,
together with their children, one of 2 years and a baby of 6 months.
Jimena!
As we agreed, I'll bring her back after dinner.
- Say goodbye to mom. - Bye, Mom!
I am Pepita, the Gunslinger.
Give me everything.
Your money, your checks, your dollars, come on.
Thanks.
Don't worry, nothing will happen to you.
Wait! Don't go yet.
Take your time.
How bright is life When your green eyes
Want to look at me
Let's go to Juliรกn Mรฉndez 3547.
Very well, miss.
At the corner with Ayuรญ.
Excuse me... Please don't take offense.
Haven't we met before?
Police! You're surrounded!
Don't move!
Do you live here?
- Yes. - Please come with me.
Yes.
I wanted to wrap it up.
IN MONTEVIDEO, ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF... A REPEATED NUMBER OF TIMES...
"...assaults against loan agencies.
The police chief,
Sergeant Ernesto Gรณmez,
ordered the elucidation of these crimes."
Elucidation, with a c.
- Colon. - Elucidation?
Colon.
I'm sorry. What came before the colon?
"Of these crimes".
"Lead officer Gonzรกlez..."
What is your job, miss?
I didn't find a job.
My sister gives me 30 000 pesos each week.
That goes in rent,
school,
Me?
No, there's been a mistake.
I used to send her money, but not anymore.
You know it, Roberto. I don't give her any more money.
Oh... I can't tell.
She... used to smile...
Maybe if she smiles...
Smile!
Come on!
What are you waiting for?
Put a smile on!
More!
- Yes... It's her. - Let's see those teeth.
Did the loan agencies have insurance?
Yes, sir.
I beg you.
For the tenth time.
Tell me the details of your robberies.
- I didn't rob anything. - Is that so?
And how do you explain that all the workers of those loan agencies
recognize you without a doubt?
- What workers? - From the loan agencies.
What are we talking about?
- Of the nine robberies! - Ten.
- Nine! - Ten!
- What, the pharmacy doesn't count? - How do you know that?
If they were nine or ten?
- I read it in the newspaper. - Which newspaper is that?
Your arrest has not been published.
But they've been talking about me.
So you are Pepita, the Gunslinger?
My name is Susana Valdivia.
Susana.
My mother never liked nicknames.
Do you recognize being the author of these robberies?
Not at all.
I won't recognize anything to you.
Always at the time of the crimes
you happened to be waiting for a taxi! Isn't it true?
- She just said so. - Me?
- Yes, you just said that. - I didn't say anything!
- Maybe it was my double. - You're cynical.
Liar, hypocrite!
Get her out. Out. Now, now!
But I wasn't cynical.
- Where should I take her? - Now!
It's true that I was lying to him a little.
I just wanted to face you all, somehow.
I wanted to explain you. To justify myself.
Are you letting her go?
So you could understand what I had gone through.
I would have liked to know what would you have done
in my place.
Really...
My god, what a situation!
So?
In front of all this people...
Do you still deny it?
I didn't have much choice.
I could either sell myself out in the streets...
Or do what I did.
I thought...
What do I do?
Should I raise my skirt?
And then what?
Do I make a sign to a guy?
Or does he make a sign to me?
What if I wave and he doesn't come?
What if he comes?
What do I do with him? Where do I put him?
I have a daughter.
I didn't know.
I want to thank you all...
Especially them, from the second one!
- You were my second robbery. - Oh, the second one?
And...
She offered to give me money from her own purse.
She was afraid they'd fire her. Did they? - No, no.
- How's the girl? - Doing fine.
I was worried about that, because...
it wasn't your fault, but people sometimes are...
She wasn't responsible.
I don't know who is.
Thank you.
Best of luck to you!
Yes, I am happy.
They take care of me.
At night they close my cell from the outside.
I sit still, I feel protected.
What I used was a little pipe, like this.
I'd hold it like this, cover my hand with a hanky.
You could see a tiny hole, like this. No bullet would ever fit there.
Had the girls known something of guns,
they'd never have fallen for it.
I got six years.
Because... It seems I was wrong.
To avoid ironing!
Because I told them the truth, that after each robbery
I told myself I would do it again.
So they treated all the robberies separately.
That's a lot of crimes.
If I had told them I had decided to rob all those loan agencies,
that would have been just one crime, and I'd have gotten two years less.
My daughter is fine. She's with my sister.
Luckily, she hasn't changed schools. My sister pays for it.
She's doing fine.
What happens doesn't matter. Because I'm here, inside this place.
Nobody sees me.
