Everything is fine?

I have to take a breath of fresh air

You're white, you idiot

As soon as it gets dark we go out

When there's no one there

Don't worry, though

I'll take you to see the sea

and I'll take you to see the stars too

Go slowly, watch your head

Shh

Breathe, breathe

Don't make noise

Feel that beautiful air

Even starving to death is illegal

Capita', the house where he lived Celestina collapsed

His aunt Amelia died

Celestina a bed to sleep in he doesn't have it

There's no money for food

But tell me, please what are we doing in Naples?

But when the Americans were there there was a lot of work

But now they're gone and in Naples there are many of us

There are too many of us The little girl couldn't stand it any longer

She was alone She's a good girl, you know

And a good little girl must remain

I'll take care of her

They seem different to me

And even the smell of the sea is different

I think we're almost there

Are you happy, huh?

I'm happy yes, I'm happy

But I feel like when we went to Posillipo

to dive Do you remember?

How? I remember but

what does it have to do with it?

I feel like I did when I was there

In lace in lace to the rock and I looked down

It was too tall

But it was there now

I could only do one thing

Jump

She is Teresa Esposito

Carminie'

Come state?

Luca is getting worse and worse and I can't even tell anyone

For medicines we can help you

We have a lot of friends in the infirmary

Take these

You helped me

But what is it?

How beautiful she is But who is she?

It looks like the maronna from Pompeii

That doesn't look like it at all

Then he also holds his face penalized

Carmine, we don't have that here

Now it begins again

Madam, please do us a favor To make us stay in America

-Not even to hug her? -No

Not even to hug her

Where is this little girl?

Why did she come here too?

She was exhausted

What have you done?

Chillo strunz' he promised me he would marry me

"If I don't marry you, you have the right to kill me with my gun"

He told me

I was in love, Carminie'

You know that it is a promise to us

I dreamed of being able to change your life with this

I really wanted it well

That he had come back to get me

and take me to America with it

And I waited

I waited

But that never came

I sold all my things to arrive in New York

And when I arrived

I discovered that 'o piezze 'e merda was married

If I could go back

I would do it again

But why?

What is written here?

Why is this photo? What about the newspaper?

Agnese, my sister Why is this a problem with the newspaper?

Come on, Tom Last chance

But I'm out of chocolate

But if you want bread, butter and jam

No, sir, thank you The cake is fine

Eat, eat, you have to grow

Thank you

If you talk I don't hear anything

And I think I had

A great idea

Joe Agrillo

Oh, Jesus It's true

But how did I do it? Not to think of it before? Joe Agrillo

-And who is he? -Who is it?

Joe Agrillo, that's the director of Liberty,

from from the Italian community

Me and that me and Joe are He's a great friend of mine

And we make him write an ad for Celestina

Do you understand? I'm a

Genius You are a genius That's perfect That's exactly what we needed

New York Mayoral Candidate Vincent Pettinieri is a democrat

We are like this Because they are convenient for us the votes from the Italians

Attention Attention Who do we have here?

There is this girl, This girl is Italian

Her name is Agnese They want to condemn her

Everybody is talking about it Everyone's talking about this fact

But here

that her sister, her sister, she was left alone

Piccirilla, ten years, ten years

And the sea passes

to be with his sister and live

a New York

What's happened?

What happens?

her only hope, 'his only hope

risks getting caught the death penalty, the death penalty

No, this story is beautiful It's going to drive everyone crazy

They will go crazy It drives everyone crazy

If Vincent takes this story for his election campaign

and manages to save the girl Italian we played bingo

We found Celestina

Sure, sure Of course, dear, but

even if we don't find it

la storia still works

It works the same

Director, they found a little girl from Naples

Bravo Very good

Bravo I want the best photographers on site

For the article, Ridge A car soon

You go with them Oh, bring a doctor with you

No police for now, Please note No police

Joe Agrillo here Vinnie

It's a moment What the hell

Can you hear me, little one?

-Carmine -Celestials

But what did you do?

-Agnes -No, don't worry

Now I'm here with you

Vincent is really enthusiastic about the idea

And now it has begun with the judiciary

Let's make committees with the press conference

If he succeeds to prevent Agnese from being condemned

the entire Italian community she's all on his side

-Is the little girl alive? -Yes, yes

It's very weak though

Here it is Take a shot What the hell are you doing? Shoot

As he gets into the ambulance Come on

Now, now Ambulance Come on

We have to make people cry All America must mourn

We're on the front pages of all the newspapers

Did you see?

They say that tomorrow in Celestina they let her out

Yes, he is recovering now

Today I saw her much better

I have to talk to you

To you and Celestina

Celestina

Did they go to sleep?

Yes

They're really two good guys

They make me happy

So you still like the idea?

Dome'

you have to tell me the truth

Aren't you just doing it for me?

You remember the first thing that I promised you

when did we get married?

Only that

we're not just kids anymore

Are you sure? It will be more tiring especially for you

This is not the hard work

And then if the eternal father he didn't want to help us,

So we helped each other In another way

-When are you going to tell him? -Tomorrow

Oh my Maronna

-Already? -What do you want?

Dome', so' creature

It's a finger That's bleeding

If I'm not mistaken, this is the first one lunch we all have together

It is true?

And let's hope it is

the first of many others

Salute

-Salute -Salute

Salute

-It's good though -Well

It seems to me that things they are starting to put themselves in

pretty good, right?

Of liberation for Agnese

even among Americans

Vincent, the mayoral candidate, he managed to get five Italians

among the members of the jury

The fact that it's here

-Do you want two more meatballs? -No, no Thank you, sir

They're very good, but it's okay like this

And did you like the room? Where did we put you?

It's beautiful Thank you, sir I feel like I'm in a hotel

This is what we wanted to talk to you about

And however it ends this process,

we need to start to think about the future

Living alone in New York It's not easy

As you can see, this house It's too big for the two of us alone

When we bought it we thought to have children and then

the children didn't come

-It's a very nice house -Thank you

And make me get caught

How much did you pay for a house? Is New York that big?

Not a little, boy

Not a little

there's room for everyone

You could live a normal life

With housework

I would like

But I don't think we kept the money to rent a room

inside such a beautiful house

He wanted to say just the right thing

Nuje amma always wanted 'i creature

Are you saying that you think of?

Adopt us?

And how did you come up with this idea?

You two are good guys And we don't have children

We have one that's even too big

Let's get started to make you a little old

I think it's one thing which is convenient for everyone

I don't know

I don't know

But what do we know about fathers?

Yours is gone when you were holding three months

I don't even have mine known

You can imagine if I wanted one Second hand

Fathers are annoying people

As long as you're a kid ciccirici ciccirici

But when you grow up

they always tell you who which is good and which is bad

Tomorrow is Agnese's trial May Our Lady help us

Your Madonna of Pompeii they call it the Statue of Liberty

Freedom

Then instead of a torch

they had to put it there a wad of money in hand

It made me feel safe

I was no longer afraid

A promise of love it's a serious thing

And I spent all day at the wash house I imagined myself as his wife

a New York co' due creature

Beautiful, blondes like that

I sold myself everything I kept

to buy a ticket to New York

And also a beautiful red flowered dress come piaceva to that

Loud squeal

it was that of a general store

But I found it myself

Villa where he lived with his wife

you to shoot myself with my gun"

That's what he told me

So, I went to buy a gun

I went back to his house

And beat her

I did it what he told me

And it stayed there

Muta

I'm the one who called the police

-Free Agnese -Free Agnese

< Free Agnese

I don't care

Kill me

because my life is over anyway

Free Agnese

< Free Agnese

Are you scared?

-I'm not afraid -Well

So can you tell us what you felt?

When you found out that your sister

could he have been sentenced to death?

What do you want to know?

My sister is the only thing that I care about in the world

And you want to kill her

What can I tell you?

You talked about us foreigners

and it came to mind There is a Neapolitan proverb that says:

"You are not a stranger, yes, only poor"

Who is rich he is not a foreigner anywhere

I finished

Clear

Beautiful But now we need the documents For the children

♪ I need to talk to you ♪ ♪ Me too ♪

♪ I need to talk to you of what Garofalo said ♪

♪ Me too Amen ♪

From man to man

Celestina told me that you don't like the idea of adoption

What is it? Don't you like my family?

It's not that

It's like I had something in my head You have treated us well

You helped us

But I can't do it just to see like a father

I do not know

So let's do this since you don't know

Let's let chance decide

We play it in bundles

If you win, nothing will happen And stay at my house,

You pay my rent Then we'll see

If I win you get adopted together with Celestina

You want to play with me?

-In bunches? -Guy

I was playing since before you were born

I would like to be part of it of a family

Live a normal life without having to more hide, escape

To keep a house where I can sleep

But you want to continue to live like this, day by day

But what are you saying?

You want to stay forever I'm sorry

I know you you don't like families

That you want to live alone, that you don't need anyone

It is not true I grew up alone

But in your opinion a family isn't that… what do I want when I grow up?

But it has to be my family

And why?

What sins should I do? A difficult thing

But you know that you don't care the line of fortune?

But why, sir, this line? Where should luck be?

Via

Vito, hurry up, okay It's about to begin, come on

Domenico Garofalo

Carmine from Napoli

-Bravo -Ok, ok, ok

Seven of Coins

But in your opinion a family isn't that… what do I want when I grow up?

But it has to be my family

And if Garofalo adopts us we become relatives Brother and sister

And what do I do then? Am I marrying my sister?

Shut up, you can make it happen for me A nice cold beer?

It's up to you
