Original subtitles

One day, at least.

It will be our guest for a few days.

Are you coming by plane?

No.

I'm arriving by train at 8.50.

Are you going to pick her up?

I have things to do.

How can I recognize her?

She's 20 years old.

She'll be waiting for me at the bar.

What are you doing here?

You have to sign up for a competition and take advantage of it.

Think about it. You don't know Venice at all.

Do you remember your father?

No.

Did he come here often?

Did he have business with our family?

Be careful.

I don't remember.

I've already been to your house, at least 15

years ago, so the two of us have already met.

I'm happy to be in Venice for a few days, even if

in fact, in my opinion, the season is not the best.

Yes, in this period it's a bit sad.

And now it's dying.

But she's always very beautiful.

This is your room.

Thank you, Melissa.

We're waiting for you for lunch.

Make yourself comfortable.

THE END Do you remember the house?

Yes, I told that to Gianni too.

Now I feel smaller.

Yes, it's an impression I had too,

going to places I had seen as a child.

And then it seems to me that then it was more alive.

It's practically me and Gianni.

It's as if the horses had passed.

One after the other, all gone.

Only Aunt Adele remained.

Even if you can't make a lot of company.

Maybe it was the death of my father and my mother, and Melissa's parents.

They had built our villa, atypical for Venice, with that park around it.

It was almost an oasis for them.

Aunt Adele remained, then a paralysis.

And now she doesn't hear us and doesn't speak.

That's enough.

Franka certainly didn't come here to know all the misfortunes of the Orti family.

Gianni, you have to go to the bank.

Tomorrow you have to go to the castle, do you remember?

Can I come too?

If you want.

The next day I took her with me.

I had some time at my disposal after I had finished my things.

Franca alternated sad moments with other exciting ones.

As if life for her was a game.

We have all afternoon at our disposal.

What do you want to do?

Walk in silence.

I like tranquility sometimes.

How is the weather in Rome?

I go to the studio with my friends.

Rome is beautiful and relaxing, you know.

Some mornings I leave everything and go to Ostia.

I don't like looking at the sea.

Suddenly I feel the need to run and dance.

I never know how a day ends.

You are unpredictable.

The things I do may not be pleasant.

It can happen.

But I never regret anything.

And you?

My life is more peaceful.

I invite you to think, and so you become a philosopher.

And Melissa?

Melissa what?

What is your relationship with her?

We live together, but we hardly ever talk.

Do you like her?

In what sense?

As a woman.

I never thought about it.

She is a beautiful woman.

If I were a man, I would go crazy for her.

It would not be the first time that there is a relationship between cousins.

Tonight I'll treat you to a fabulous dinner.

Do you like it?

I've never eaten caviar.

Another confession.

I prefer herring.

If you want, we'll take some herring.

Are you crazy? They'll throw us out right away.

Don't you see what a face they have?

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

I have to go to the post office.

Bye.

I hate my nature.

I hate myself.

I'm a constant contradiction.

I feel that Gianni is indispensable to me.

When Franco comes, the attention he has for her disturbs me.

THE END

All right, Mr. Adere.

Where have you been?

Well, you know...

The sun was out and I wanted to enjoy it.

You also had lunch outside.

Maybe you could have warned me.

It's true, but I didn't think you were already back.

Well, did you know that Aunt Adele was at home?

Of course, I should have called.

After all, you can't ignore the foundations that govern our house.

I don't think it's appropriate.

I decided not to be it anymore.

You are still quite young.

To be able to afford time.

I do not.

Where have you been?

I told you.

To catch the sun.

I had lunch with Stefano.

Do you remember?

That architect.

By chance I met him on the street.

Was his wife there too?

No.

And Franca isn't here?

She said she had to go to the post office

She's no longer alive Ah, we're really well-educated

And the aunt?

She's black

She's not used to this kind of behavior

Good evening, Miss

Tomorrow, Dr. Cigni will arrive.

We need to talk about the fetuses.

Otherwise, we'll never solve it.

It's almost a ritual.

A necessary ritual.

Come in.

Can I come in?

Of course.

Or the fear of the temporal.

I thought I'd have a word with you.

I don't drink.

Please.

I always have to drink alone.

You know you're beautiful.

I like you.

I don't have friends.

I'd like to be with you.

To talk to you about my problems.

To tell you everything.

And then there's the temperature, and they had to bring the soil

for the work of the bag, otherwise it would stop everything.

But I agree with you on a certain control.

The prices have gone up to the stars, and then there's nothing left.

It becomes a remittance if you don't wait, isn't that right?

The expenses must be moderate.

Freedoms can sometimes become harmful.

That's why I was talking about a certain control.

You'll understand the new conditions.

They're good people,

but you'll have to talk to them with extreme clarity.

It doesn't change the fact that things have to be done gradually.

You can't immediately think of a total change.

What have you come to do? Why?

I feel dirty.

Gianni isn't like he used to be.

Or maybe he seems to be.

I feel like I have to think of him as if I were going to lose him at any moment.

And I realize that I need him because of his silence.

Because he's just like me.

An unusual son of a time that came too quickly.

Of a time that found us unprepared.

Stuffed with embalmed suggestions.

That no longer have their value.

Many like Aunt Adele who gave them to us.

Believing in them as if they were irreplaceable.

Aunt Adele who looks at us severely.

And does not know that we are not guilty if everything is in a hurry.

If we are living ghosts.

Abandoned like Venice.

The arrival of Franca had shaken me.

Franca was a strange girl.

One day, when the water was high in Venice,

she told me that she had gone to the Piazza San Marco on foot.

She had had fun bathing,

and walking in a suit.

When she told me these things,

she had a strange light in her eyes,

like someone who...

like someone who has a fever.

I thought she was throwing away her life.

I invite you to go with her the next day, at dawn.

It was beautiful.

It's been a long time since I felt like this.

Is it a compliment for me?

No.

You were impeccable.

If I don't feel like this, I get bored.

What can I do?

You drank a little too much.

But I feel light as a feather.

Would you like to fly?

Of course.

Fly to Venice.

Fly.

Fly to Venice, fly.

Fly.

Fly.

Flying!

Flying?

Of course.

Flying to Venice.

Venice makes me cry.

It makes you cry because of the beauty?

I walk alone along the canals many nights.

You feel like you have ghosts following you.

All women.

In the sense that Venice is a dote.

A young woman who is leaving you.

Do you love Venice?

I was born there.

It's the only city where I feel right.

I received an education that does not agree with anything.

I am a superstition, together with Melissa.

Our drug is called Ciadelle.

You think that the world has remained as before.

It is petrified.

And with her, her thoughts.

I and Melissa are not part of any period.

Do you want to go home?

No.

We have to toast first.

And enjoy your city.

Tonight the two women pour champagne.

They're both yours.

Here you go.

Cheers.

Cheers.

To Venice, to make your wife happy.

Come.

Come here.

Have you ever had two women together?

You have two women together, and I'm not jealous of the other.

Thank you very much for watching until the end.

They haven't come back yet.

And I feel alone.

Lily was a good girl.

But I didn't feel at ease, I felt like I was in another world.

And I?

You, too. You're different from the rest of the world.

We are limited to live, you look like a statue.

What do you mean?

I do not even know.

But it's a common thing in your family.

You behave like a hundred years ago.

That's what I think.

I understand, we are out of time.

She's the only one left, and she believed it.

But she's beautiful, too.

It's like looking at something in a museum.

It's beautiful, but you feel the need to go out.

Good morning.

Hello.

I ran.

A GandB. I feel good today.

In fact, you are different. You are more beautiful.

Where did you go last night?

To Lido.

You're late.

We got a tan.

I did not.

Neither did you.

He didn't want to say who it was.

Under the bell tower of Piazza San Marco.

Then I have to go.

He's an old friend of mine.

I'm not coming for lunch today.

Goodbye.

Hmph.

Yesterday was hard, Dallantini.

On the other hand, you have to make a decision.

This is a remittance.

The work eats up the income.

The houses are old.

Their time has come.

I should help you.

Oh, no, I don't mind.

What I'm sorry about is the result.

Aunt Adele doesn't realize it.

For her, it's all the same as before.

I prayed for Rina to be quiet.

For now, I don't think there's anything to worry about.

We still have the island.

How much did you talk?

Yes.

Yes. Maybe because we're out of the house.

We never meet outside.

Maybe that's why.

It's true, we never talk at home.

If it wasn't to warn Franca.

Strange.

You left Arina where you were.

I thought it was normal.

As if you needed protection.

What are you saying?

Incredible.

But it's as if you wanted us...

It's our duty.

They didn't even explore my brain.

We are a family.

You can't trust the others.

THE END

THE END

Why don't you come here too?

You have to go tomorrow.

These things shouldn't happen in my house.

And where should they happen?

Doesn't your cousin trust you?

Stupid!

Do you want me to not notice that you like to die?

And then you always have her under your eyes.

You look like a drama from the eighties.

An irreparable love between two cousins

in a haunted house.

Good evening, everyone.

Are you afraid to admit these things?

But I am of this world.

I know that sooner or later something will happen between you two.

What's the matter?

What happened?

I killed him.

I didn't want to.

He must have hit his head.

We pretended to be indifferent.

Of the corpse of Franca.

Every now and then we looked at each other

to check our alliance.

And finally,

good evening.

What do you think?

Of us.

I'm afraid.

Of what?

Of everything.

Everything doesn't mean anything.

It's too beautiful.

Even if we have to face our aunt.

There is time.

It will be hard to make her accept the idea.

It's about our lives, not yours.

For you, we are the Horty family.

Until now, if we have not lived, it is for this reason.

If we are still alive, it is because we have spoken to each other.

We must not give up anything.

It makes no sense to be bound to a past that does not exist.

It will be difficult.

It's not easy, we must have a lot of courage, and I'm afraid.

Because we are weak.

Because I love you, I have always loved you.

Gianni, I would like to tell you something.

Tell me.

One night I heard footsteps outside my room, it was Fabio.

I followed him.

I saw him enter Irina's room and make love.

I almost felt bad.

I thought we were all different.

And we are.

At home, I feel like I don't exist.

That I have to disappear.

Why?

Because we are wrong.

But it's not our fault.

And then we don't care anymore.

We're a man and a woman. We love each other.

The rest doesn't matter.

Of course.

Do you remember Olga, the governess?

When she taught us that poem?

I was already a young lady.

You, a child.

You can't remember her.

Why should I remember her?

Well, Olga is fine.

But the poetry, you were too young.

And I remember it well.

I met a beautiful woman.

White shoes, white dress.

She was wearing a black dress.

But in her head, there were pearls.

With time,

Canareggio returns to Fioriro, but it's a pity, it's a pity that I have to die.

It's not true, it's just that someone was looking at us and we felt...

Guilty? Of what?

Not guilty, but I don't know, I don't

understand why you can feel this sense of fear.

There must be a reason, don't you think?

That's enough.

Nothing happened. Believe me.

Now we are desperate.

And also the atmosphere of the house.

Aunt Adele.

Franca is gone.

But you do not have to make a drama.

She had her reasons to leave.

In the end it was a neurosis.

Remember this.

Whatever happens, you have to stick it in your head.

Come.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I know I can't please you, Mr. Adele.

Franca, she's gone.

I don't understand, Franca.

Franca? What do you mean?

I don't understand.

Telephone? I don't understand.

I have to call Franck.

No, what?

I have to call Franck's parents.

To say what?

It's not possible.

Come in.

What's the matter?

Something wrong?

It's unbearable.

What?

Everything.

I can't stand the atmosphere of this house anymore.

When I'm not afraid, I get bored to death.

You must have a reason.

Every day that passes is a day conquered.

Why shouldn't I be?

On the other hand, it's not enough to know how to be a foreigner,

to know how to concentrate on what concerns us,

the trees of the park, the light that filters from the rays.

That bothers me too, I can't stand it!

It's better this way.

Oh, Gianni, why don't we go?

It would be a wrong move, they would suspect us.

Of what?

Perhaps of the fact that we met.

Love arouses envy.

I want to make love, Gianni.

THE END

What got into you?

I don't know.

But you have to be strong.

Don't you think it's strange that we met at a time like this?

Why?

It would have been so simple.

But instead... It's this house.

It's too strange. It's gloomy.

Maybe meeting outside here would make everything trivial.

The value of an act is always in the act itself.

I'd like to know, for example, why you do something.

Why did you do it?

It would be the key to understand you better.

Why do you ask why I do it?

What do you mean?

Now we have become accomplices.

No one will be able to divide us.

I don't want them to find me here.

Good morning, Inspector.

Any news?

The usual anonymous, Inspector.

Or rather, the usual anonymous.

Since it's a woman calling you.

You insist?

I insist.

But I don't understand this behavior.

In general, a joke lasts less.

Not this time.

He continues to insist, proposing the looting of that part of the canal.

Was the phone call located?

A public telephone booth.

It changes every day.

What remains unchanged is the tone of the message.

It seems that one day we will have to satisfy this maniac.

If ever a maniac, Inspector.

What happened this time?

I was surprised by Rina, who was on the phone.

I didn't hear what you said, but I thought you said Franca's name.

That means... Aunt Adele.

Exactly.

She has suspicions and wants to know.

Aunt Adele is as stubborn as a mule.

She won't stop until she gets to the bottom of it.

What are you afraid of?

She's deaf and mute.

You don't know her.

She's capable of anything.

She speaks with her eyes more than a normal person.

It's not so bad, you just have to look at yourself and understand that

you don't need to listen to yourself to know what you have inside.

Now you're exaggerating.

Why are you so calm? Do you have any plans?

The police have begun to search the canal.

Nothing.

Nothing? Try again.

Try again.

Nothing.

I don't understand why we have to hide.

We are both free.

It's true, but they're spying on us.

And what can they discover?

Don't cry.

I don't want anything bad to happen to you.

Would be the end.

If only I could believe you.

And what happened, Franca.

Don't touch that subject.

He's dead now.

There's nothing to ask.

But it's difficult.

Then go on, dig.

What do you want to know?

It's my bad luck.

Why do you look at me like that?

You remind me of a girl I met a few years ago.

Oh, is that so?

I didn't think you were jealous.

I've never been jealous.

I thought you were stupid.

Melissa!

You're crazy.

Let's start all over again, Gianni.

Let's pretend to be born in this moment.

All right.

The past will never come to an end.

What's going on?

He's looking for a man's corpse.

No, a woman's corpse.

A woman's corpse?

She looks like a virgin.

Poor thing.

I have something to tell you.

No, no.

It's there, look, look.

No, no.

No, no.

Mrs. Adele, Commissioner Frangipane would like to speak to you.

No, he didn't say the official reason for his visit.

It's certainly not hard to imagine.

He's a police officer, I heard him very well.

He was asking about you.

It was you, you were the one who reported us.

Otherwise, they would never have come to the villa.

Stop it!

Stop it!

Don't you understand that it's over?

We have no way out!

Stop it!

They found out!

But I couldn't help it.

You have to have faith.

After all, they have no proof.

Look for something. It was natural.

Franca has spent her last hours in this house.

But isn't it dangerous?

The old lady is deaf and mute, like a head is not worth a granché.

Are you sure she's deaf and mute?

When was the last time you saw Miss Franca Fracenda?

He says he saw her the day before she disappeared.

What did you think when you saw the girl?

Did you think it was normal?

Or not?

For many days in the police station,

we received anonymous phone calls

anonymous because research was initiated.

Do you have any suspicions about who it could have been?

There were phone calls that were always made by...

some public telephone booth.

And it was never the same.

But it was always a woman.

Are there women in this house?

Besides you and the young lady?

Yes, Miss Melissa.

Is it possible that it was you?

There must have been a reason.

Not answering is as good as saying nothing.

I hope you realize that.

Think about it, Miss Melissa.

She's not the only female member of the family

who could have called the police.

Not to mention that it would remain to establish

his convenience to carry out such an action.

Which of the two would have been interested in making Franca disappear?

Melissa or Gianni?

Gianni, Melissa, and tell me why.

Jealousy.

Interest.

Please, Miss, it's a very important answer.

You decide.

I'd like to talk to you, Inspector.

I knew you'd be here.

We saw you coming.

We saw you?

You were with someone?

Yes, with Gianni.

But it's useless for me to continue.

I'd like to talk to you alone.

Very well.

I was the one who killed her.

She killed her.

Why do you confess it now?

When I realized that an innocent man could have died in the middle of it.

He must have had a motive.

Of course.

Mr. Gianni Orti.

No, it's something between me and Franca.

He had brought me to exasperation.

It had become too demanding, I couldn't stand it anymore.

And for what reason?

Franca wasn't normal.

What do you mean?

I think she's in love with me.

Why don't you try to tell me something that will help me?

The night of the crime, for example.

I was in my room.

I couldn't sleep. Or rather, I had slept for a while.

Or a few hours, I don't know.

When I heard the door open, it was Franca, visibly drunk.

She had a bottle in her hand.

She started talking to me about her alleged unhappiness,

about the need to communicate with someone.

She said she was terribly lonely, incomprehensible.

I didn't know what attitude to take.

Her visit seemed strange to me, but I didn't know how to behave.

She came close to me, sat at my feet,

and her intentions seemed clear to me.

She took my hand, tried to kiss me,

then with her hand she took to caress my legs,

with sweetness.

For a while I looked at her, stunned.

Then I tried to escape.

I felt his body on mine, his lips trying to kiss me, and I couldn't free myself.

He had an incredible strength.

Now he was screaming at me, but he didn't give up his

desire to kiss me, and I felt more and more upset.

With all my strength, I tried to take him away

from me, but he was like a giant spider on me.

And then, I saw the metal container I had on my bedside table.

I managed to grab it and hit it violently on the head.

Her body abandoned itself next to mine.

I didn't immediately realize what had happened.

Then I realized.

She was dead.

I had to free her.

I took a boat.

I took Franck's body and threw it into a canal.

The report is in the file.

Sit down.

You still can't understand that you can live with expectation.

I have to find the truth, the real truth.

I'm almost afraid of that family of stone.

But I have the feeling that everyone needs my help.

The girl had the misfortune of being too alive.

She caused a family crisis.

A crisis in the sense of total lack of life.

I find the people of the Horty family irresistible.

Do you know what it means to be invulnerable?

All right, all right, you can go.

Tell me.

Well, let her pass.

Please come in.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Please come in.

Miss...

You confessed that you killed Franca Faccenda.

You told me how.

Then you said that you threw her into a canal,

but you say that you don't remember where you threw her.

This seems strange to me.

It's not strange.

I was upset, so I don't remember.

But you remember that you took a boat near your house.

It was tied up, she untied it, and then put it back in its place.

The knot that held her firm to the shore has been reformed.

Yes.

I spoke to the owner of the boat you used.

He says he found it in its place, with the knot re-made.

I could also think that you're hiding something from me.

It's hard to believe.

A body without life is very heavy.

So you need strength.

A lot of strength.

Or help.

But I don't understand what you're trying to say.

You confessed, but not everything.

I want to be honest.

I think that your cousin Gianni could have helped you.

And now he's silent. Maybe he's afraid.

You can't say that he's a great knight to leave her here.

But he's a great man.

In any case...

Time is Lord.

Rivela

They're looking for you here, too.

Come on, go on, don't stop.

Nothing.

Miss, I needed two things.

To see her and recognize the voice of the phone call.

But don't worry.

It was a confirmation of a conviction.

So, the reason for our meeting is another.

She called the police several times

to inform them of the disappearance of Miss Franca.

Why?

It was a matter of conscience.

No, it was an order.

From Mrs. Adele.

Why does the lady hate her nephew so much?

Because it is clear that an investigation would have led us to his tracks.

But Miss Melissa confessed.

But she made a mistake.

I mean, he realized that he had killed a

person, and at the same time he regretted it.

What is the mistake he made?

Yes, because now he doesn't care that the body is found.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had a hard time telling us where it is.

This murder leaves me perplexed.

Everyone could be guilty for one reason or another.

I can't know the reasons that pushed you to such an action.

But I think I'll be able to find them.

It shouldn't be difficult.

Anyway, I'll do everything I can to do it.

When I entered that huge house,

I felt like a lump in my throat.

You have all your eyes shut.

You have to do me a favor.

Tell this to Mrs. Adele.

I will visit her immediately after I have found Frank.

Thank you so much for watching

Good evening, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, I'm an enemy of

mother's scenes, but I announced myself because it would have been

Smoking has never been a habit of mine while I was working.

It's obvious that this case has made me nervous.

And generate the motives.

You were certain of the identity of the killer.

But what gave you so much confidence?

Did you see something?

There was enough to suspect her,

if there was no open confession.

I thought for a while,

that the culprit was the aunt.

And Miss Melissa,

with her strange confession, had offered her innocence.

Now I also know why Melissa

did not want the corpse to be found.

He had said that he had killed the girl

by hitting her with a cinder block,

but the body would not have shown wounds.

In a hurry, a mistake.

Franca Facenda did not die of strangulation

head. She died of a heart attack.

She had a congenital malformation that kept her

constantly in the balance between life and death.

Here is also justified her frenzy of life.

If I didn't tell you right away, it's because

I wanted to carry out other investigations.

A supplement of necroscopic examination.

To hear the relatives.

If ever...

If you need help, you can ask her.

I'm afraid, you know.

A sudden fear.

A threat.

It's not true that you, Mrs. Adele, didn't see Franca before her death.

It is demonstrated by this piece of wool from his

scarf, which was found on the corpse of the girl.

Another one was still in Franca's room.

Miss Melissa confessed that she had received a visit from Franca.

It's not accurate.

She went to her room.

Melissa wanted to give me a very vague version of the crime.

Maybe to find a justification.

Now it's much easier to tell the truth.

She did indeed have an affair with Franca.

She made him fall, and then she came out.

No

Help me!

You're the one who caused her death.

Mrs.

Orti

Mrs.

Orti

Mrs.

She's dead.

We're moving away from Venice.

It's like moving away from a nightmare.

Shall we go to the cabin?

When we get to the harbour.

I want to see it now.

Come on, let's go.

You'll have time to look at the sea.

Greece is far away.

What's wrong? You should know.

They say that my company spoils you.

That's not what we were looking for.

To be together.

For the rest of my life.

Forever.

You have a strange look on your face.

Why did you go to the sea?

I'm thinking about something.

About what?

If I were dead,

who would you have done this crucifixion with?

With Franca?
