ABOUT ME: NEW HERE

Hi, Paula! Confirming our meeting
about the movie tomorrow.

I just got back from my trip.
I'm full of ideas, very excited.

Can't wait to tell you about it. Bye.

WHAT ARE YOU INTO?

INTO OLDER GUYS?

I have a birthmark on my belly
just like yours. Wanna see?

What are you into?

Democracy, films and coffee.

And in bed?

Three pillows, a warm blanket
and a sleeping mask.

Two pillows for me is fine.
Films and coffee are essential.

-What about democracy?
-It's not a matter of taste.

-What are you doing now?
-I just got back from a trip.

That's nice! Vacation?

Sort of. It's a long story.

Wanna tell me about it,
lying on three pillows?

I'm anxious.

-Can we start with coffee?
-Sure.

-Nice.
-Today?

Really anxious. What is your zodiac sign?

-Libra.
-I'm a Taurus.

-Fuck!
-It's the best sign.

That's what every Taurean say,
and all their ex-boyfriends disagree.

-My ex wouldn't.
-Really?

Wanna call him?

No. I'll trust you!

-When did you break up?
-About 4 hours ago.

Really?

We just broke up.
This trip was like a honeymoon in reverse.

-Wow!
-I shouldn't have told you.

-I'm surprised.
-I can imagine that.

But also curious. I love a good gossip.

Come to my bed.

No need to rush, boy!

-This is all that remained.
-What do you mean?

He gave me this as a breakup gift.

It makes no sense.

It makes perfect sense, Chico.

Thanks, Alice.
Hugo always liked symbolism.

He gave you the cube and "the end"?

We already talked about breaking up,

but the trip was scheduled,
so it became a farewell trip.

-Was it good?
-As always.

I think it was the right time to end it.

Aren’t you sad?

I wasn't expecting the breakup talk.

But when we talked about it,
I realised he was right.

I even joked that our relationship
was like a successful TV show.

We could have made
a few more good seasons,

but maybe it was better
to end it at its peak.

Before the series became boring.

Best season finale.

No one was replaced and no one got bored.

-It was actually great!
-João.

It seems you're not feeling anything
after a ten year relationship.

Sometimes, it's best not to have
so many feelings.

If you lived together,
you'd be overwhelmed with feelings.

-Fooling Julia again!
-I'm not fooling, I love her.

-But living together ruins everything.
-Relationships ruin everything!

Living together is sadomasochism.
The bad kind.

Easy there, Chico!

So why you and Hugo
never moved in together?

I don't know. We never wanted to.

I don't want it.

But Julia thinks
the relationship is stagnant.

-And is it?
-It is!

-It's not.
-It's not!

-No?
-No!

She does, but I don't think so.

I dunno.

Excuse me.

Cappuccino.

You’re new here. What is your name?

-Luis. I started last week.
-Luis...

Welcome, Luis.

Thanks!

Excuse me.

My pleasure, Luis.

Success!

Not even 24 hours
and you're already on apps.

Recover from the monogamous days. Look.

Excuse me. Move over.

I've talked to this one.

No way, not a shaved chest!

-This one?
-I like him.

I can't stand hipsters.
This picture eating cookie.

-I love cookies.
-Even when wrapped in a coffee filter?

-Have you downloaded the other apps?
-Do I have to?

Wouldn't it be easier for gay people
to just use one app?

No! Each app serves a different purpose.

I think I'm going to call Hugo
and ask him to come back.

Do you realize that I spent ten years
not knowing how to flirt?

You didn't know how to flirt?

Real flirting.
Actually trying to hook up with someone.

The problem is you're not the app type.

If not back with Hugo,
you'll have a new boyfriend in a week.

Stop it! I'm a bachelor now!

What if Hugo starts dating?
Will you be ok?

He said he wants to be single
for the next ten years.

So I won't die from jealousy.

Now I just want to enjoy casual sex.

Actually, I was into this guy on the app.

Show us.

-Did you fuck him?
-When would I fuck?

What did you do all day?

More pictures!

Okay. What about the dick?

-Chico!
-No way! I respect his privacy.

For God's sake!
Privacy doesn't exist anymore.

Once it's on the app,
it belongs to the world.

Hello, Hugo?
Are you up for another season?

Let me see your photos.

-I won't show!
-Let me see your photos, João!

Bad photos can ruin you.

I don't like taking pictures.
It's all horrible.

I took only one for the profile.

Wait! Vitor wanted to meet you
after seeing just one picture?

He's clearly a nice guy
without a bunch of rules.

Are you into Vitor?

-Maybe.
-You shouldn't have sex yet.

-Why?
-Come on, guys.

The first post-breakup sex
has to be with someone disposable.

That's horrible!

It's horrible, but he's right.

Really?

If he's gonna be your new hit series,

then you might want to make
a few bad movies first.

Did they just deliver the basket now?

No, mom. It was at the reception.
I just got home. Thanks.

I got this ‘cause I knew
you'd arrive from the trip,

with nothing to eat,
without going to the market,

and just drinking coffee all day.

Don't exaggerate.

But you're right
'cause I forgot to go to the market.

-How are you?
-I'm fine.

Come over! I want to see you.

Your dad cooked your favorite meal.

I can't, I have to prepare
for tomorrow's meeting.

Your movie! When does it start?

-I'll find out tomorrow.
-You won't let me read the script?

No, mom. You’ll have to wait
until the film is ready.

You don't trust your mother anymore.

I miss you. Come by, please.

I miss you too. Let me get settled
and then I'll come by.

How's Hugo doing? Can I text him?

Sure.

Like I always say,
there's no ex-mother-in-law.

But I can wait a while if you prefer.

No problem. He'll like that.

Now let me see what's in the basket
'cause I'm starving.

We'll talk later.

Hey.

Don't forget to eat the fruits.

Okay, Ms. Mara.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Oh my God! Ten years!

My longest relationship
must have lasted two years.

I'm always busy,
traveling and showing films at festivals.

I can't wait to start
taking our film to festivals.

I just have to get over
the fear of flying!

Too bad we couldn't meet at the office.

The renovation is almost finished here.

So, will the office be ready
for us to start making our movie?

Yeah. Maybe.

Won't it be ready?

The offices will be ready.
It's something else.

Remember I said we were merging
with Maria's production company?

Yeah.

During this process,
we reviewed all our projects

and we realized that to survive,

we have to focus on profitable movies.

So we're going to take a break

on films that are more artistic,
like yours.

Just a break?

It's just a break.

For now, it's just a break.

But during the review of the projects,

we hired a script consultant

and he thought your script is a little...

It's a little raw.

-I get it.
-Don't be disappointed.

I know this will delay your plans a bit,

but you know I love your movie, right?

So I talked to the team.

And we're submitting your script
to a production fund,

but you have to send us

a more mature version
for the consultant to approve.

-Okay.
-Can you?

-I can.
-Are you sure?

I can!

Great!

Keep in touch
and send me any new versions.

I'll give feedback on anything you write.

Sure.

I’ll be waiting.
I gotta run to another meeting.

See you later.

Hi, Rosana. Just letting you know
that I'm already back in town

and I need to pay my credit card bill.

If you have any editing jobs available,
could you please let me know? Thanks!

Hi, João!

What about your movie?

I assigned your jobs to other editors.

But I have a video
for a construction company.

Four-minute video for social media.

It's not a big deal,

but I think it will help you
pay the bills.

Think about it and let me know.

The film world is unpredictable,
they've decided to postpone it.

Anyway,
I'm up for the construction video.

If anything else comes up, let me know.

Okay? Bye.

SHE AND HER LOVE AFFAIRS
VERSION 4. WRITTEN BY JOÃO COTRIM

Hi, guys!

-I'm Jennifer!
-And I'm Nataly!

In today's video we will teach
how to fold plastic bags.

To fold up this way!

Don't forget to like the video!

Hi, gorgeous.

-Hi.
-Already on Scruff too?

I learned that each app
is for its own thing.

I know, hottie!

Insomnia, cutie?

-Jet-lagged from a trip.
-Vacation?

Vacation.

Recovered from the trip?

The four coffees I drank are helping me.

If I drink four coffees, I can't sleep.

And it gives me diarrhea.

-A lot of hooking up on the trip?
-Nope.

What a shame!

We hooked up a lot.

-Who is "we"?
-My husband and I.

I was looking at your photo

and I'm not sure
our birthmarks are so similar.

You'd have to come by to be sure.

Clever!

You're nearby, just 200 meters away.

How about you come over,
since you're not sleepy?

Don't you want to come over
so we can compare birthmarks?

I spoke with Alexandre.

He told me.

-Come in.
-Excuse me.

Be my guest.

Want something to drink?

-Gin.
-Straight?

No. Tonic.

-Hi, João. Welcome.
-How are you?

It's a pleasure.

-Here.
-Great!

What are you drinking?

-Gin.
-Straight?

No. Tonic.

Make yourself at home.

-It's Alexandre and...?
-Rodrigo.

Rodrigo. I'm João.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you, João.

Are you into couples?

It's my first time. I don't know.

No problem. We're great teachers.

-And what do you do?
-I'm a bottom and he's a top.

No. I was thinking professionally.

I'm an architect.

And I'm a dermatologist.

-You?
-I am...

a video editor.

You're not sure?

I graduated from film school.

I directed short films in college,

but I still haven't directed
a feature film.

So I don't feel like a filmmaker.

We have some videos for you to edit.

Really? What kind?

-Some porn we shoot on sleepless nights.
-Shameless!

Aren't you feeling warm?

Nope, I'm always cold.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have come.

Don't worry, João.

Relax. You don't have to do anything.

You can just watch.

Or if you prefer...

You can take this cellphone and record us.

Hey, you on the couch.

Don't miss out on this opportunity.

Here at SP Concrete

we're ready to assist you
with the dream of home ownership.

Hi, handsome. I'm free now.

Want to grab a coffee?

I can't, I'm working right now.

Are you sure?

Unfortunately.

Hey, you on the couch.

Don't miss out on this opportunity.

Just a quick coffee.

I didn't mean coffee
when I asked you out for coffee.

But the ristretto here is great!

Silly!

The first time is always the first time.

If it's bad, we won't want it again.

-Couldn't it be a good one now?
-Not when we're in a rush.

I get it. You like long lasting sex!

Don't you?

It depends on the day, time, and place.

It all depends on the first time.

Go on.

It's about building tension
and anticipation.

If we had sex just because
we liked each other's pictures,

it would've just been another hookup.

Now we have more reasons for sex.

Creating tension is key.
That's how it's done in the movies.

So you're already editing this plot.

Sort of.

What's the deal with your ex-boyfriend?

-We were together for ten years.
-What?

So we ended up being
more like friends than boyfriends.

Isn't that the goal?
Being best friends with your boyfriend.

In theory, yeah.

But eventually,
the sexual desire becomes something else.

It doesn't make sense
to stop having sex with other people

just because you're in a relationship.

How about an open relationship?

Never!
It turns into competition, jealousy.

It's a recipe for not being
both a couple and best friends.

You can answer it.

Nah. They can wait. I'm enjoying our chat.

What are you working on?

I'm waiting to hear about a job
for the launch of a major brand.

-Awesome.
-What are you editing?

Just a dull institutional piece.

And also working on a movie script
I was planning to direct.

But I'm stuck.

What's the story?

It's about a lonely woman
nearing the end of her life,

revisiting lost love affairs.

-Lesbian?
-Straight.

-Do you prefer lesbian?
-I do.

I’m thinking...

Considering you spent ten years
in a relationship,

it doesn't seem like much of an issue.

Especially from
a straight woman's perspective.

I want to start a new script.

-A gay movie.
-Great! What's the plot?

I don't know yet.

You can take it. I gotta go.

-Luis, check please.
-Wait. Wait.

We need to decide the plot
of your next movie

and when we're moving past this first act.

When this story's screenwriter decides to.

-I go over here.
-And I go over there.

Take note.

Our first kiss.

So we won't disappoint our audience.

Sure.

You're tall!

-I'm 1.83m. And you?
-I'm 1.73m.

Ten centimeters difference,
a perfect height.

See ya later, Vitor.

See ya later, Taurus boy.

THIRTEEN CENTIMETERS

THIRTEEN FEELINGS

TITLE CARD: FEELING #01 - HAPPINESS

JOÃO, 32 YEARS OLD, ENTERS HIS APARTMENT.

And this is what remained.

The first post-breakup sex
has to be with someone disposable.

Sleepless?

Nap or shower after sex?

Shower and then nap?

Can it be nap and then shower?

-And then more nap?
-More nap.

Sorry! Did I wake you?

-No. I was curling up in bed.
-We're out of eggs,

but there's Nutella tapioca with coconut.

I love you, but how can you be
so active in the morning?

I woke up inspired with some ideas.

-Are you gonna ride your bike?
-No, I already did.

Now I’ll write.

My sweetie is so productive.

So? Would you like a tapioca or two?

-Me?
-Yes.

I want you.

I need to write my script.

Paula is waiting
for the new version today.

-And I have to finish this coffee.
-No. You’ll write and I’ll make coffee.

-Where's the remote?
-It's always with you.

Vitor, it's not here.

Oh, it's here.

"Vitor, it's not here".

Did you watch episodes by yourself?

Vitor, we agreed!

I can't believe you watched.

You know that's actually infidelity
these days, right?

Hey, boy!

Vitor, if you watch one more...

JOÃO OPENS THE BATHROOM DOOR.

You haven't talked to Vitor
since the date at the cafe?

Two weeks without a word!
Not even a like!

Didn't he have a job outside the city?

By my count, it was over three days ago.

No, four.

He must be busy.

Or he was eaten by a lion.

Or he doesn't like
complicated people for sex.

You took too long to go to his bed,
he lost interest.

No. It was a lion.

Look. He hasn't posted anything in weeks.

Can I consider myself a widower?

I'll soon be a widow
because I'm going to kill Julia.

Can you believe she is on sex strike
while I'm not moving in with her?

Why not move in with her?
It's not the end of the world.

Also, she's a chef.

Imagine waking up
with a wonderful breakfast every day.

Imagine having to wash dishes immediately
because nothing can be out of place.

I think you’re making up troubles.

Do you really want to be with her?

João! Of course I do.

I just don't have the patience
for this standard relationship thing.

You're denying yourself an experience
just for theory.

Each relationship has its standards.

Move in with her and then you decide
which standard you want.

Here.

Hugo also agrees that you should
enjoy the privileges of dating a chef.

Do you think it's healthy
to talk to your ex every day?

It has been.

We talk about trivial things.

Movies, series,
our friends' relationship crisis.

So funny!

Doesn't it make you wanna
get back together?

Why rewrite the happy ending
of a perfect movie?

How about Luis, the waiter?

Be quiet!

-Is he here?
-No.

But the gay world is a village.
And I can't be with him.

-Why?
-I always take my dates to the cafe.

If I hook up with him,
I'll have to get a new place.

But that ship has sailed already.

You can't take dates there anymore.

Emotional responsibility.

I'll have to change my dating schedule.

Hook up with him!
Maybe he's the love of your life.

Stop it! You know I'm a love atheist.

You should be agnostic
for a chance of something to happen.

I'd rather not be disappointed.

Guys. Who's Martin that you follow?

He liked three old pictures of me,
but it's a private profile.

Martin! He was always asking about you
when you were with Hugo.

-Where do you know he from?
-Just around.

He's a great option for you
to get the sex out of the way.

He hooked up with the whole city.
Now it's your turn.

-Do you have a photo of him?
-Show him.

He only posts artistic photos.

Not even a profile picture.

-But he's really cute.
-So what?

It's ridiculous to stalk others
without a photo.

You don't have a photo either.

Because posting
every detail of life is ridiculous.

You have to decide.
Is it ridiculous to post or not post?

It's ridiculous to like someone's photo
with a private profile.

Always full of rules.

He'll definitely be at Charlie's
film premiere party.

You can meet the profile live.

I don't know if I'm going.
I'm late with the job.

Annoying client that never
approves anything.

Besides the script,
which I'm completely stuck.

I can't write a single word.

-Do you want us to read it?
-There's no point.

Nothing changed
since the last time you read.

Will you make the fund's deadline?

Guys! Here.

Martin texted!
He said he's going to Charlie's party.

I said you were going
and he said he was going too.

He said to say hello.

-Chico!
-I'm solving your life, dear.

But I love Vitor!

Just kidding.

You're a cuckoo crazy.

FIND: VITOR

REPLACE: MARTIN

REPLACE ALL

Martin, we had agreed.

I can't believe you watched.

You know that's actually infidelity
these days, right?

Don't try to seduce me.

I've got a lot of episodes to catch up.

Hi, how are you?

Did you make the last changes I sent you?

The client is pressuring me. Anyway.

Can you send me ASAP, please?

Thanks. Bye.

Don't miss this opportunity.

HI, GORGEOUS!

INSOMNIA?

IT'S STILL EARLY TO CONSIDER INSOMNIA.

SORRY I LEFT LIKE THAT.

NO WORRIES.
THE DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN TO YOU.

BY THE WAY...
I HAVE A PROPOSITION FOR YOU.

Will it be professional?

Of course, I have to do it right.

Can you sit on the couch
so I can test the light?

Like this?

Or like this?

Great. Say something.

I want to see you naked, gorgeous!

-I want to see you naked.
-Audio's fine.

Great! I love dirty talk.

-I'm ready for my close-up!
-Babe...

Now what do we do?

Well, I dunno.

I suppose just go ahead
and pretend I'm not here.

João, come here.

It's a shame to pretend you're not here.

I'm shooting.

Now it's up to you, pretty boy.

How long have you been together?

-Eighteen years.
-What about the two years we dated?

Twenty years,
including the two years we dated.

How long did it take
to open the relationship?

What do you mean by "open a relationship"?

Have sex with other people.

How about dinner with other people?

-What do you mean?
-Well.

Sometimes you can have a wonderful
conversation while having dinner,

discover some crazy chemistry.

It can be much more intimate
than sleeping with a stranger.

For us, sex is just another thing
we can do with each other or with friends,

like going out to dinner,
to the movies, traveling.

Do you know what's not open?

The desire to be together,
to be a life partner. You know?

-I poured my heart out for you.
-So cute!

-I transfered your money.
-Thanks!

-I love you.
-I love you too.

TITLE CARD: FEELING #06 - ANXIETY

JOÃO IS DRESSED UP FOR A PARTY,
SITTING ON THE SOFA.

Martin!

Martin, we're late!

Are you going like this?

Do you prefer this?

We can't do it now! We're late.

João, it's a party! There's no being late.

-I'm all dressed up. Stop it!
-Listen.

I'll undress you. And dress you up again.

Don't worry, pretty boy.

MARTIN TAKES OFF JOÃO'S CLOTHES.
THEY HAVE SEX.

Where are you?
We're running late for the party.

Relax! You haven't had sex yet.

You can wait half an hour to fuck Martin!

I'm coming.

Okay.

Let me know when you're coming. Bye.

-Hi, Charlie!
-You came!

-Congratulations on the film!
-Thanks!

-Hey how's it going? Nice to meet you.
-Gabriel.

So?

Don't look now
but Martin is kissing someone.

My Martin?

So I guess he didn't hook up
with the whole city.

-Shall we get a drink?
-It's a good idea.

Leo!

Long time no see! How are you?

-Good and you?
-Where have you been?

-I was working outside São Paulo.
-Great to get out sometimes.

At first it was, but then I got homesick.

Sorry! I suck at this! Leo, Chico.

Nice to meet you.
I'm Chico and my friend is rude.

João.

How are you?

Leo is a photographer.
We worked together a while ago.

-Are you guys in film too?
-Theater production.

-I'm an editor.
-I envy you.

As if.

Being locked indoors,
looking at the computer all day.

I spent a month filming in the forest.

There was no hot food. No shower.

All I wanted was to stay
in a comfortable little room, editing.

-We'll get more booze.
-Me too, I'll go along.

No! You'll talk about
film production and its problems.

-We'll get you some.
-Let's go.

What are you editing?

An institutional video.

Don't you like fiction?

I do. But it's hard to come by.

I started editing institutional videos
and before I knew it,

I was stuck in this world
of corporate video editing.

Vera is looking for an editor
for her new movie.

Her editor can't do this one.

I can connect you.

-Serious?
-Yeah. Give me your number.

-Thanks!
-No problem.

-Thanks!
-You're welcome.

What were you shooting in the forest?

It was half doc, half fiction.
Totally crazy and low budget.

And that's why
it's gonna be a great movie.

The kind you're proud of
when you watch it.

I know.

I need one of those on my resume.

Wanna be a director?

I was gonna direct a feature,
but it was delayed.

What a shame.

But it's amazing.
You're going to direct a movie.

One thing I've learned
is that delayed schedule

is always an opportunity
to improve the script.

Take that chance.

Let me tell you something.

I have this rule, for every gin and tonic,

I drink a glass of water
to stave off hangovers.

Nice.

But that increases the number of times
you have to go to the bathroom.

It'll be worth it.

I hope so.
After 30, the hangovers get even worse.

Here’s the deal.

Go to the bathroom
and I'll get us a drink.

And a glass of water.

Sounds good.

Hi, João. How are you? This is Gustavo.

You shot Alê and Rodrigo’s video, right?

They gave us your contact.
We also want to shoot a video.

Stop using that app and come to my bed.

Guys! I'm leaving!

Vitor wrote me!

What?

Things were great with Leo.

He texted me to go there now.
I can't miss this opportunity.

-João.
-Leo?

I'm not feeling good.
I think it was that third drink.

I exaggerated. Again.

-Drink some water.
-I better go home.

-I can take you home.
-No need. Enjoy the party.

-We’ll talk later.
-Okay.

-Bye.
-Bye, get better!

Take care of yourself.

He has gastritis. When it attacks...

It hurts.

I can't believe how easy that was.

We need to keep the audience engaged.

They thought the movie had been cancelled.

I was working on the launch
of that huge brand.

-It worked out!
-Congrats!

-Come in.
-Excuse me.

I love this show.

I was thinking about
the time we spend with TV shows.

Wow. Don't even tell me.

It drives me crazy when
I’m seven episodes into a terrible series

and I can’t stop watching.

You have beautiful eyes.

Thanks.

I love how you pretend to be shy.

Pretend?

I mean.

Well, it feels genuine,
yet somehow it isn’t.

Go ahead.

You're not shy.

You do what you want.

But sometimes,
something seems to hold you back.

You're very observant.

Do you go to therapy?

Thankfully, I've never needed it.

The ones who need it most.

I've never really felt the need.

And it's expensive.

What's the price for healing your traumas?

I think I'm fine with traumas.

-Nobody really is.
-Well, nothing that's disrupting my life.

We discover so many things in therapy.

I can imagine.

But I'm okay
if my problem is a bit of shyness.

Also, we build defense mechanisms
all our lives to defend ourselves.

It took me a long time
to build these defenses.

I'm not about
to tear them down with therapy.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

Did you quit?

Nope.

I promise I'll see a therapist.

Tell me.

What's going on in your little head?

I dunno.

I like you.

Isn't that good?

-Yes and no.
-Why?

Because these hook ups

are usually casual.

I think you need to take your
relationship problem to your therapist.

I stopped therapy. I wasn't enjoying it.

Want to talk about it?

Not about therapy.

What's the issue? You're not good in bed?

You’re not well-endowed?
I’m not into big dicks anyway.

You're cute. That's the problem.

No need to worry, I won't reject you.

Small or big dick are all welcome.

Maybe you should
start therapy to understand

why you use humor
to deflect during tense moments.

I don't know why
I didn't tell you this before,

but it wasn't just because of work
that I didn't write to you.

The thing is...

I have a boyfriend.

That was unexpected.

Was I naive, or were you deceiving me?

I think I deceived you.

Better this way.

I feel less like a fool.

Well...

I dunno...

Guilherme was traveling,

so it feels like I'm not really
in a relationship, you know?

I never tell the guys I hook up with
because it's always just casual.

So I didn't say anything to you
in the beginning either.

But then,

every time I thought of telling you,
I couldn't because...

I didn't want to lose you.

So, I ended up leading you on...

I messed up.

You did.

Maybe I should go back to therapy.

You had to know the truth
before anything happened.

But...

Now that you know,
maybe we can still hook up?

I...

I don't think so.

We can't say it's a surprise.

People lack common sense.

Relax, you’ll get some dick soon enough.

Chico.

Okay. Sorry.

Why didn't you hook up?

You were so close.

I was too infatuated.

If I had, I'd only end up hurt.

Even if it was just a crush?

The brain can’t tell it’s just a crush.

It hurts all the same.

And I just got the credit card bill.

Besides, the rent went up.

-Didn't you hook up with him?
-What? Nope.

I know him from somewhere.

I thought he was one of your guys.

No, buddy.

Yeah, sure.

Well, I...

Luis, could I get
another cappuccino, please?

Make it two!

Hi, João!

The client approved the video.
You're amazing!

But there's a problem with the payment
and I'll need to delay it by two weeks.

I'll try to expedite it,
but there's a bit of tedious paperwork.

I'm so sorry.

But I already have
another editing job if you want.

Bye.

Hi, Gustavo. How are you?

Sorry for taking so long to answer you.

I was busy here.

I shot the video for Alê and Rodrigo,
and I'm available to shoot yours as well.

João, this is Davi.

-How are you?
-Nice to meet you.

We were thinking of a Brazilian theme.

My family is from the midwest.

So we thought about
Pantanal and gardening.

Cool.

I'm not sure about these gloves.

Is it good on camera?

It's all right.

I got this boot. Like it?

How does it work?

-You enjoy and I shoot it.
-Okay.

Do you call "action"?

Action!

No need to look at the camera.
Pretend I'm not here.

Okay.

-What's up?
-Hi, how are you?

-Is this a good angle?
-Yup.

I'll change the angle later.

-When will it be ready?
-By the end of the week.

-I'm super curious.
-I transferred your money.

-Thanks.
-Loved the experience!

Here. Thanks.

Thank you. If you need it, just call.

Bye, guys.

Without the camera now.

Here are the ones I mentioned.
This one's orange.

Do you need money?
Why are you selling your clothes?

Just have too many.

It's good to clean up
and renew the energy.

I thought you hated Marie Kondo.
Are you kissing clothes goodbye now?

Send me pictures
before you take them to the thrift store

your brother might want some.

Okay. I'll send you.

Everything okay?

I'm here.

I gotta go.
Can't talk and do this at the same time.

-Bye.
-Bye.

TITLE CARD: IN SOME MULTIVERSE

JOÃO AND ORLANDO'S APARTMENT

JOÃO ENTERS THE APARTMENT.

I love you too, Orlando.

Hey, cutie. How are you?

This is Leo from the party.

It was great meeting you.

I'm sending you Pedro's info.

He's Vera's film producer.

Fingers crossed. Bye.

Thanks, Leo.

I'll write him. Thank you!

Hi, Pedro! I'm João.
Leo gave me your info.

He told me you're looking for
an editor for Vera's film.

I was hoping we could arrange
a meeting to discuss this.

Leo keeps texting,
asking if you're single,

feeling better, available,
and if you're a nice guy.

What should I say?

He's cute, but I don't know.

I'll say you're single, available,

and honestly, kind of fucking boring.

I am! He should run away from me.

-Besides...
-Besides you're being rude

and denying kisses
to someone who's getting you work!

Mr. "My credit card bill has arrived".

It's a love note from Orlando.
I found it in a coat pocket.

-From Orlando?
-Remember?

I was with him
just before I started dating Hugo.

Orlando!

So cute. I liked him.

But it didn't end well.

Because you left Orlando for Hugo.

Don't you ever wash that coat?

It's a coat I never wear! Leave me alone!

Wow! Orlando was really in love.

Poor guy.

I wonder how he's doing.

Text him.

Maybe I shouldn't,
given how we left things.

I love you too, Orlando.

Are you leaving the suitcase here?

If it's in the way, feel free to move it.

I'll go make us some coffee.

We should move to a bigger place.

Wasn't it wonderful two weeks
at a big and comfortable AirBnb?

It was great,
but we don't have money for it.

-We could look for a cheaper area.
-Why move?

I already have my favorite bar,
my favorite bakery.

I have enough points to exchange
for a beautiful pot at the market.

I don't wanna have to discover new things.

Hi, Taurus. How you doing?

And I’ve got
my favorite person right here.

The best thing about dating a Taurus.

We don't want to experience
new love affairs.

I'll pretend to believe.

Besides, we overcame
the pandemic in this cubicle.

Now it won't be a problem.

-Okay, João.
-Hey, come over here.

Stay there.

-What are you up to?
-Just a second.

Take your shirt off.

-Take yours off.
-Come on.

That's it. Now swing it around.

Wow! He came with a surprise.

Hey!

I said we need a bigger place.

At least with two bathrooms.

Are you crazy?

That's how you kill a couple's sex life.
Separate bathrooms.

We're happily using this same bathroom

with this wonderful view.

Yeah, sure!

Wait.

-Got a message from Pedro.
-Which Pedro?

The producer.

Hi, João. We're still looking
for an editor for Vera's film.

I saw your reel
and you'd be perfect for the film.

Drop by the office so we can discuss this.

I said it was gonna work, João!

Hi, João.

Unfortunately, we've just filled
the editor position for Vera’s film.

But send over your resume.

We frequently have openings
for institutional and commercial films.

Hi, Pedro.

I'll send you my resume. Okay?

Thanks!

João.

Stop yelling!
You'll wake up the neighbors!

Leave me alone. I'm upset.

Damn.

Nothing new, João?

I have, but not in the script.

I revisited the plot,

focused on the structure,
and thought more about the characters.

Once that's done,
the script updates will come quickly.

I'm just worried 'cause
the deadline is in two weeks.

I’ll have a new draft for you in a week.

Are you sure, João?

-Yes, I am!
-Okay.

I'll be waiting. I'm curious to read.

Soon.

Hi.

Could I get a ticket for the 4pm film?

Thanks.

Here's your ticket.

Your ticket.

Thanks.

Did you know about Hugo?

That explains why you acted strange
when Bruno showed up at the cafe.

I had just found out about him and Hugo.

Are they dating?

-I don't think so...
-They're not dating, just having some fun.

"I plan to stay single
for the next ten years."

I'm starting to get jealous!

Calm down, João.
You don't even know what's going on.

Okay.

Maybe I should call Leo
and apologize for ghosting him?

Or Vitor.
It's okay he has a boyfriend, right?

Call me, João.

Listen, João.

Are you listening to yourself?

You're in desperate mode.

Bruno isn’t the end of the world.
You should be dating too.

Why? Dating is just painful.

If you had chosen me,
you wouldn't be in pain now.

Buddy.

Relax. Everything will be fine.

Do you have nail polish remover?

-It’s in the bathroom, Chico.
-Got it, I’ll grab it.

João, my dear friend.

Stop obsessing over Vitor,
Hugo, Martin, Leo.

You've got a career to focus on, remember?

Focus on me, João.

Tell them. Come on.

The problem is...

I've become a porn director.

I visited a couple's house
to shoot and edit their porn video.

They paid me for it.

Another couple found out
and I did for them too.

Are you serious?
I'd never expect that from you.

-Was it wrong to do that?
-Absolutely not!

I'm so proud of you!

I love you mixing work with pleasure.

Dicks in and out!

Do you have something to show us?
A frame?

Only on their OnlyFans.

Wow! It's professional!
Did they pay you well?

It paid the rent.

That's shocking!

Right. Did more people ask for it?

Tell me!

Nice guy, but he's all about work.

The next one will be better.
I'm feeling it.

Go ahead. Tell us.

He's nice,
but he does nothing with his life.

I'm so sorry.

No way. He doesn't drink coffee.

He's an Aries.

He's very...

You know...

Not for me, I guess.

Cool.

What else?

Way too straight.

I'm super gay!

No way.

Just so dull.

Remember how we used to have fun?

He's too funny.

I can be serious too.

He's too quiet.

We always had comfortable silences,
never awkward.

It's hopeless.
I'll never find someone like Hugo again.

Having one hit show is rare,
let alone more than one.

Not everyone can pull
a Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

You should stop comparing
your life to a TV show.

I agree. You should live in reality.

-You understand what I mean.
-It seems you don't understand.

It's no longer a metaphor.

You believe your life
is one great script you can control.

What are you doing that's any different?

Enough, João.

You're just running
from any chance of a relationship.

-Relax, João.
-What about you?

You give advice
but live in fear of commitment.

Sorry, guys.
He's been a bit off the rails lately.

Awkward.

I’m not going to chase after him.

So, João, how's our script coming along?

So, Paula.

I tried, but I don’t have
an improved version yet.

Don’t you have anything to show?

I do, but it’s not any better than before.

I'm not sure what to do
now that the funding deadline is here.

Maybe this film just isn't meant to be.

Come join us, pretty boy.

No thanks. You guys have fun.

It’s no fun unless we share it, João.

If you're in our house,

you have to cum too.

I'm okay, thanks.

-What’s up? Come here.
-Seriously, I'm not in the mood.

There's no way
you're not in the mood for sex.

There definitely is.

-What's your zodiac sign?
-Dude, just enjoy yourselves.

Hey, Orlando. It's João.

Not sure if you still have my number,

but I saw yours is the same.

Something funny happened.

I found an old note from you
in my coat pocket.

It’s been there for about

ten years?

Crazy, right?

I dunno.

I wanted to tell you.

And see how you were doing.

Married?

Four years.
But we've been together for nine.

All thanks to you.

Me? How's that?

So, when we broke up, I was devastated.

I had so many expectations.

I thought you were my soulmate,
we had so much in common.

We did.

So I was pissed
when you started dating Hugo.

'Cause I thought you
had nothing in common.

I just couldn’t believe
that was happening.

I was in disbelief.

I spent a month stalking you

and it drove me crazy.

My friends had to intervene.

I went abroad to study
and to try to forget you.

That's where I met Vini.

So thank you very much.

My pleasure.

I thought you and Hugo were married.

We never wanted that.

You didn't?

When we were together,
you said you wanted that.

Clearly not to me,

but you wanted to grow old together
and be a couple forever.

Wasn't it?

It was.

It's hard not to change as a couple.

I have this theory.

Two people together
form this other entity,

the couple,
which is neither one nor the other.

The couple becomes
what's essential for each.

You know, I never liked dogs.

But Vini loves dogs since he was a kid.

Grew up and adopted one.

That one died. He adopted another.

And now we have a puppy.

Now way! I can't believe it.

But I'm not sure
if I actually started liking dogs,

or if it's just because

I love this marriage we've built

and Shimeji is a part of that.

-Shimeji?
-Shimeji.

I love the name.

But based on your theory,

when it ends,

how can we distinguish
what's us from the entity we created?

I dunno.

It's a process.

It's a painful and difficult process.

But eventually, it does end, João.

When you left me,

I couldn't imagine ever being happy again.

But now, I'm actually grateful
you left me for Hugo.

Son!

Such a long time.

Did you mention you were coming?
My memory’s been terrible since COVID.

No, I was just nearby.

-Heading out?
-Yeah, got a dull work meeting.

I’ll stop by some other time.

No, come on in. I’m usually late anyway.

Catch me up on you, your film, Hugo.

-Things are hectic.
-Life’s been hectic,

especially with this damn pandemic.

And with cell phones,
everyone’s always talking.

Plus, there are so many TV shows now.

Serial killers and psychopaths.
I’ve stopped watching them.

I don’t need that negativity.

Did you hear about
the argument at your aunt’s

over the birthday party?

Are you keeping up with that,

in the family group?

Is this your third coffee today?

Fifth.

You were right
about not moving in with Julia.

Relationships aren't worth it.

I’ve already moved in with her.

-Since when?
-For a while now.

Why didn't you tell me?

You haven’t seemed
very interested in anyone else’s issues.

I'm sorry.

What are you feeling right now?

All the feelings in the world.

I’ve missed you.

Me too.

Gustavo and David loved their video.

They're setting up a profile as well.

By the way, whose sex is better?

Ours or theirs?

That depends on the audience.

You two are more romantic.

They're more about performance,

having sex looking at the camera,
seducing the audience.

Which style do you prefer?

I can't compare my own work.

He's sitting on the fence.

I think yours feels more genuine.

I feel that people are so worried
about being desired

that they don't know
what they really like.

It seems like few people
genuinely enjoy themselves during sex.

It seems there’s a collective agreement

that appearing happy
is better than being happy.

Besides, always being worried
about hiding flaws.

But I think it takes a lot of courage
for such exposure.

Courage?

Have you noticed that we post
about everything, except sex?

Vacation, lunch, dinner, gym,
all this will be saved for posterity.

But why is sex,
something amazing that everyone does,

only kept private?

You're right.

When are you gonna be in a video?

Never!

Such conviction!

I don't even have anyone to shoot with.
I'm in a terrible phase.

He didn't even consider us!

-That's how you spoil friendships.
-Come on.

No offense.
We invited you here for another reason.

That's right.

We entered our video
in a porn film festival.

And the winner is...

Best home video award.

Really?

Your first award came with us.
Don't forget that.

Thanks!

Now that you've won a prize,
you can call yourself a filmmaker.

A successful one.

You should see
how many views the video got.

-Is it a lot?
-Oh boy!

-People want us in their videos.
-Will you do it?

Well, it depends if you're directing.

-Are you up for it?
-I'm in!

That's it, boy!

I've got to thank my mom, Mara.

How are you? Want to grab lunch tomorrow?

Wow!

It's such a surprise to be eating here.

The upside of not being
your boyfriend anymore.

I can eat here without being judged.

How's everything going?

Just getting by.

And you?

I'm fine.

I miss you.

Me too.

And the silly things,
like arguing over where to eat.

Thanks.

-Could I have a glass of water?
-Two, please.

-The Rubik's Cube?
-Impossible.

Once you finish one side,
the others are all mixed up.

-It's a metaphor for life.
-A cheap metaphor.

But, like all clichés, it's true.

I prefer to complete one color at a time.

I finish one side,

feel happy about it,

then shuffle and start over.

That simple.

Do you think we made the right choice?

Some days I do.

Some days I don't think so.

But seeing as we're here
having a peaceful lunch, I think we did.

Are you seeing anyone?

What do you mean?

Do you want names?

I saw you with someone recently.

Bruno.

We were together.

Then we split up.

Got it.

You fool!

I was scared.

Scared I wouldn't find
another relationship as perfect as ours.

Relax, you're a talented screenwriter.
You'll land another hit series soon.

Casting isn't easy.

I wasn't an easy character either.

It was all so perfect.

Really?

Wasn't it?

Like any good show,
we had our great seasons,

some average ones,

and yes, a few terrible episodes.

I think you have a good quality,
but that can get in your way.

You tend to forget the bad things,
the problems we faced.

It helps you avoid holding grudges,

but it also skews your reality.

You idealize the past

making it hard
for anything real to compete.

You're absolutely right.

-What about the script?
-I gave up on it.

-I started a new one.
-Really?

-Can I read it?
-It’s not finished yet.

What's it about?

Our breakup.

So I'll need to approve it.

It's really about
starting over after our breakup.

I guess.

What's the title?
You’ve never been great with titles.

Ridiculous!

My titles were always great.

You were the one with bad ideas.

But there is one: "13 Feelings".

I like that.

It's a good title.

Inspired by our height difference
of 13 centimeters.

Is it 13? I never knew.

I'm 1.83m and you are 1.70m.

-I'm not 1.70m.
-Of course you are, Hugo!

João, I'm not 1.70.

-I'm 1.72m.
-No way.

I just had a check-up.
I’ve taken up swimming again.

Sorry to disappoint. I didn’t mean to.

Maybe you should call it
"11 Feelings" instead?

Who knows?

You're forgiven.

But that's only because

you were in your
post-breakup madness phase.

What do you mean?

You always go a bit crazy after a breakup.

It’s been a long time
since your last breakup.

After a ten-year relationship,
we didn’t know what to expect.

I haven’t had many breakups.

But still, enough.
Get that presentation we made.

Yeah, the one about your romances.
Here it is.

When you fall in love
platonically with someone,

it takes two weeks to get over them.

Okay. Next.

If you kissed someone? 30 days. Next!

If you had sex, 45 days.

For a ten-year relationship,
we had no frame of reference.

We figured it would take a year,
but apparently, it's less.

You're both pathetic!

How is married life?

-We split up!
-Really?

Just kidding! I actually moved out.

You couldn't handle it, right?

Julia was the one who couldn't handle it.

She hated how
I always wake up in a good mood,

that I like the curtains closed,

that I blast loud music,
and fall asleep easily.

I thought it was great.

She realized that theory
works like hell when put in practice.

Now we can be happily ever after.

So cute.

We haven't seen her in a while.

Let's get some coffee with her.

Hey! Want to come over?

You know, I just realized...

Awful! Just a complete mismatch,
zero chemistry!

I told you, the first post-breakup sex
is always terrible.

How do you know? You're always single.

I've been with plenty of people
right after their breakups,

and they never know what they're doing.

I get off at seven today.

Why don't you come over?

I need to finish some work,
but we can grab dinner afterward.

Okay.

-Anything else?
-No, thanks.

I've got a boyfriend.

What?

-I've got a boyfriend.
-Chico!

Okay, so I've got a boyfriend

and I don’t want to talk about it, okay?

Now the first sex is out of the way,
who's next?

I don’t want to think about it.

I'm deleting these apps,
they just make us too anxious.

Look at him,
doing his first post-crisis app purge.

Just wait,
you'll download them again soon.

-I won't! Never again!
-Yes, you will!

-No way!
-Look how you talk to me!

An advice. Favorite the ones you like
so you won't have regrets.

-Favorites?
-No! I'm deleting it!

Go ahead! You’ll thank me later.

Hi.

Can I get a ticket for this next session?

Thanks.

-Leo.
-João?

What a coincidence!

Are you going in to watch it now?

Yeah.

I’ve been wanting to see it,
but work’s been crazy.

-I hear it’s fantastic.
-Yeah, I’ve heard the same.

Actually I bought a ticket once
but never made it.

I kept putting it off,
but I’m finally here to see it.

Looks like we have some time.

Do you want to grab a coffee?

-Actually...
-Oh, hey.

This is Will.

-Pleasure to meet you.
-Nice to meet you, I’m João.

-Enjoy the movie.
-Shall we?

-Thanks, you too.
-Bye.

João?

I’m Martin, a friend of Alice and Chico.

-How’s it going?
-Everything good?

Is this your second time seeing the movie?

I overheard your conversation.

Sorry about that.

It's a long story.

-This is my second time too.
-Did you like it that much?

-Not really.
-Then why see it again?

I have this rule.

Whenever I pass by here after therapy,

I just watch whatever's playing.

If it’s the same movie,
I have to see it again.

Why's that?

I tend to be too controlling,

and not picking the movie
helps me let go of control.

-It was my therapist’s idea.
-I like that idea.

Where are you sitting?

I'm at...

H-11.

H-13.

-Not too far, not too close to the screen.
-Exactly!

-Do you wanna go in?
-Yeah!

I'm going to the toilet.
Can you keep an eye?

Sure.

How did you do it?

There's some technic, some logic,

and a bit of YouTube video tutorial.

-Lets go in?
-Lets go in?

Let me tell you something.

How about we skip the movie
and head to my place?

Absolutely.

I mean, this movie sucks.

No way it's any better
the second time around.

And I think going to your place
is also giving up control.

I think so.

Let's go?

-Not on the foot!
-Are you ticklish?

Stop it!

You have a very confortable bed, João.

I want one just like it.

Choosing a good bed is essential in life.

It's the place for the two best
and most important human activities.

What's your size?

What size do you want to know?

Your height.

1.70m.
