When was the last time you saw your Mom?

I was 16 and we were at home

and then they came and they told her she had to leave,

because she missed an appointment at the center,

she missed her appointment.

Sometimes I think maybe I should've gone with her,

I don't know.

There are four of you, you all have cigarettes

and none of you have one cigarette?

- No. - I just have one cigarette.

Okay, seriously, just pay it forward, bitch,

- just one. - Oh, my God.

- Hey! - What?

Hold on.

Hold on.

I'm a fucking catch.

I'm sorry, I just wanted to say, you know, fuck that guy,

alright, you've got your whole life ahead of you,

you've got a whole line of options swiping in front of you

and you just have to learn to let go,

it's like just love again, you know, you're worth it.

Damn.

Don't worry, okay, I'm not even here to fuck,

I just do you have another cigarette, please?

Give me one and then I'll disappear from your life forever,

alright?

- Bummed, man. - I don't have any.

- Please, anyone? - I'll give you one.

Thank you very much.

Will you do the honors?

You know,

When I was a kid, it was like Chuck E. Cheese.

Chuck E. Cheese, oh, my God!

Why is the pizza there like so good?

And the roller rink, we had,

you ever go to the roller rink

and the pizza at the roller rink,

even though it was the one in the rectangles,

like that's fucked up, but I love that pizza.

I actually really love the rectangle piece,

because you can really kind of gauge how much you wanna eat.

I mean, like I'll finish a slice.

You're so OCD.

I'm just saying, you can really like take charge

of how much you wanna eat.

- I don't like to waste food. - Neither do I.

Oh, fuck, you got all the cheese.

You want some?

No, no, we're not gonna "Lady and the Tramp" it.

It's a good move.

Watch this.

Yeah, I love the crumbs like on the back of your tongue.

But this monk, like shaved head, robe, all of that

sitting on the tree next to me

and he just starts humming loud as fuck.

They called him the Viking of 6th Avenue,

and he was performing on the street like a serious composer,

but playing on the street

with homemade instruments and things.

- You ever see him? - Anybody could see him,

Oh,

Wish I could still smoke.

It's just so taboo with kids, you know,

I mean, everything is.

I mean, it's not crack, girl,

you don't need to hide it.

I'll tell my husband that

next time he gives me shit for it.

Hey, you wanna know what I say?

I say this every morning in the mirror.

I do what I want, because I'm the boss of my whole body.

- I like that. - Yeah.

- I'm the boss. - Hm-mm, of my whole body.

Hey, Elijah,

we gotta be at yoga class in 30 minutes, okay, so finish up!

No, I hate yoga!

Damn!

You have him living that good life.

I mean, his teacher says it's gonna keep him

agreeable and focused,

so namaste.

Namaste.

Here, take this.

Okay, this is what I heard,

you can't change in a day

and sometimes you hit a point,

where the only way forward is inward.

That's what this monk told me.

No, for real.

- A monk, huh? - Hm-mm.

I used to do yoga

and meditate and go on retreats and stuff,

but then he came along

and it all just fell apart.

What?

Um.

Don't trip too hard on this mothering business, okay,

because you don't know,

one day that shit just gonna be gone.

I mean, I wish that were true.

Wait, really?

Like sometimes I just wake up in the morning

and it's so quiet

and I have this thought that like I wish he'd run away.

- For real? - Yeah,

I just want him to be gone.

Like I'm a monster.

Hey, don't cry, please don't cry.

You're not a monster,

you're not a monster, you're just,

you're just some ugly tree, I'm sorry.

- What? - I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, you are,

like look at these trees, they're fucking ugly.

You know, like 'cause the winter came

and like all the leaves are gone

and so they're bald and they're cold

and they're like skeletons, you know.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you with that.

It's just hard being a tree.

It's really hard being a tree,

in the winter it's really hard being a tree,

you're stripped,

but like it's gonna be, you know, summer soon

and he's gonna be 18 soon and then you'll be summer forever.

Smoking causes one in five deaths in America each year.

Okay, we're gonna leave in just a second, okay.

- No, right now! - Hey!

I'm sorry, go on.

Surprise!

- Yo, give me that! - Hey!

- Hey! - Get back here!

That's not funny, hey!

- It's mine, it's mine! - Oh, Jesus, Elijah!

- It's mine, it's mine! - You need to handle your son.

- Don't tell me how to parent. - Get out of there now!

Give it back, give it back to me, give it back!

I thought I was kinda going crazy, I was losing my mind,

that's how cold it was,

because I'm saying to myself, you know,

girl, you don't have to be out here,

but then you're saying to yourself,

girl, but where you gonna go?

'Cause whose door you knock on

at three o'clock in the morning in Park Slope, you know,

calls and knocks on the door

are like deaths and having a baby, so you know.

It took a while to shake that off,

because that was something that I could say to myself,

that I never wanna experience again, never,

there's nothing like being warm

and people complain about the summer,

there's nothing like being warm, trust me, when I tell ya.

First the overview

on this powerful nor'easter that's on the way,

it's gonna produce heavy snow, powerful winds,

Look at this bitch right here.

Are you sure that's a she?

She's probably got a bigger dick than this guy.

Hey babe, you looking for something to eat?

I got something for you right here.

Whoa, cut that shit out, man,

- there's people around. - Fuck that,

I'm not leaving till she answers me.

Hey babe, can you fucking hear me?

Hey babe, can you fucking hear me?

Woo!

Hey, bitch, answer me, answer me!

Oh, there he goes.

- Come on. - Watch out, babe.

Come on, answer me.

You know, all of these people

are going to all these places

are really all just going nowhere.

I said all these people, you know, they're talking, moving,

laughing, breathing, but they've never left home.

They're all just in a bubble,

they just go from a box to a tunnel to a box,

they're all blind.

Yeah, you know what they say?

In the land of the blind, the cyclops is king.

You see, a jail cell's just a vessel,

if the ocean is your mind

and once I realized that, I set sail.

If I see your fucking face again, bitch.

Morning, Mama.

Almost there, Mama.

Almost.

Get your pussy game on, honey.

- Okay, Yasmine, it says... - That's not my fucking name.

- It says here... - It's not my name,

- that's not my name. - Is this you?

Fucking out of here, I don't know who the fuck you are,

but you are not listening, bitch.

What you should be asking is where are those motherfuckers?

Where can we find those motherfuckers,

who beat the shit out of you and speaking of,

where are the goddam police, huh, where, where?

Yasmine, shouting at me

isn't gonna get this done any faster,

unless of course you wanna be pink-banded

and sent to the psych unit.

Faster, the only thing I want faster is justice!

Okay, what don't you understand about that?

Look at my face,

look at my hands, look at that, look at that shit.

What about those white motherfuckers,

who beat the shit of me,

why aren't we talking about where they live?

Oh, you're really gonna answer that?

Okay, so you really don't care.

You're really gonna take a fucking.

You really don't fucking care.

Alright, bye.

It says here you have an aunt in Jersey.

I urge you to call her.

Take this and about the police investigation,

a police officer will call you later in the week,

which is why I need your current address,

can you do that for me?

Well, if you change your mind,

you have that phone number there

and I have some pamphlets here for shelters

emergency medical services, if you need it.

I want you to keep these with you, okay.

Yasmine, is there anything else I can do for you today?

What is it?

I just need a tampon.

Okay, I have one.

Stand one train to 242nd Street

approaching the station,

please stand away from the platform edge.

Hi, excuse me, do any of you guys have a swipe?

Do any of you guys have a swipe?

Do any of you guys have a swipe?

Hey, do any of you guys have a swipe?

ANNOUNCER ON PR SYSTEM: 242nd Street

approaching the station,

please stand away from the platform edge.

Hi, do you have a swipe?

hi, do you have a swipe?

I was standing in a doorway

the other night

just waiting for time to pass

and I was so cold, I can remember being so cold.

You know, at my age you're never cold,

'cause you're always having fucking hot flashes

and I was so cold and I just wanted to be warm,

I just wanted to be, you know what I wanted?

I wanted someone to take care of me,

I just wanted someone to take care of me.

- I like your outfit, Mommy. - Oh, thank you.

It's like a beautiful rainbow,

that came to wash away all the rain.

- Yeah. - Aren't you cold?

Yeah.

Yeah, no, no, I just.

I'm sorry, do you have a phone?

I just need to make a phone call, is that okay?

Yeah?

Thank you, thank you so much.

You hungry?

Come, come.

Thank you.

And say your name now, come on.

Come on, sweetie.

- No. - No, no, don't worry.

It's cold outside, I know, it's really cold.

Don't worry about it, baby, don't worry about it.

Okay, you'll be okay.

I'll make you something to eat, okay.

Put on serial, you can watch whatever you want.

Don't worry.

- Something to help you? - Si, here.

Cut up these cucumbers for me.

What's your name?

My name is Aurora, Aurora.

- Aurora? - Yes, like the borealis,

the lights that come up before the sun.

Yeah, that's beautiful, that's so beautiful.

That's my name, what's your name, where are you from?

Yasmine, but people call me Yas.

- Yas? - Yas, yeah.

Yas, like the music, I love jazz.

- Yeah. - I love Yas.

You remind me of my daughter.

- No, uh-uh. - Yes.

She's a beautiful dancer,

she's like you, skinny assy, the same color eyes.

No.

- But she dance. - She doesn't have, no.

No, don't worry about that, that gets better.

You have beautiful eyes, don't worry,

you have beautiful eyes.

You know, onion makes your eyes cry,

- so this is a little secret. - Okay.

If you put on the flame,

everything goes to the flame and you don't cry, watch.

See, you're not crying, right.

- No. - Neither am I.

You know, my Mom used to make the best rice.

- Really? - Yeah,

she would make this rice with coconut.

Oh, that's what I use, I use coconut too.

- You use coconut? - Yes.

And it's like candy, it's like so good.

So good, I know, so good.

Now, you smell the coconut, be careful with your hair.

- Thank you. - Be careful.

Today it's a church, but back then it was called

- the Park Palace. - Where was it?

On 110th and 5th Avenue right around here,

- three blocks down. - Yeah?

Yeah, a few blocks from where I met you

and there all the artists used to go there,

Tito Puente, everybody went there,

it wasn't called salsa then, it was called Latin music.

Okay.

And everybody knew how to Latin, especially in Harlem,

all the guys knew how to Latin.

In the '70s a big thing happened, there was birth control,

so that was like if there was a cage

and they let the cage open and they let all the women out.

So now we could dress however we wanted

and we had all these freedoms, you know,

it was sex, drugs and rock and roll,

but in our world, it was sex, drugs and salsa.

Women wanted to come on their own, you know,

especially white women, so they were burning their bras

and they were saying that women should have equality.

But they didn't know what it was like

to walk across 110th Street,

they didn't know what it was like

to be in a club with a bunch of men,

where they ruled, they bought the drinks,

we had to sit there and look pretty and dance

and they didn't know what our reality was like,

but then we had another time of freedom,

we had a freedom in our culture,

we had a freedom in our dance,

we had a freedom in our music.

Only in this country do they seperate people and music

like they do with TV dinners,

I never seen such a thing like TV dinners,

you put the bread here and the rice here

and we don't eat like that,

look at how we eat, we put everything on one plate.

Did you ever get married?

Oh yes, I was married, yes, I was married,

but my husband is not around anymore,

mu husband died, so it was rough back here,

back then it was very rough,

there were many street fights and gunfights

and he was shot once, so

and I loved him so much, but what are you gonna do?

You gotta keep going,

so we kept going and I raised my little girl,

she's in Puerto Rico and we're okay.

Eat, eat, eat, eat, now you're gonna be okay, yes?

Yeah.

I remember when my children were little,

after we would eat, I would take the furniture

and I'd put it up against the walls here by the kitchen

and open up the space and we would dance

and sing and play records all day long.

Dinah Washington.

What a voice.

Let's see.

Yes, did you ever see a little record like this before?

You never saw these, right?

Look.

Okay.

There it is.

Come.

Come, come, come.

First question, very simple,

what's today kind of make you feel like,

what's today feel like?

Different.

- Different? - Different.

So could you say today makes you feel different?

Yeah, today makes me feel different.

Cool, does it motivate you at all?

I don't know, how?

I mean, does it motivate you to change?

- I don't know what... - Francis.

Change what?

Guys, I think I'd like to try this

just one on one with Yas.

That's not my name.

- Yas is not your name? - No.

Well, no, if I've got your name wrong, you gotta tell me.

What's your name?

Sabina.

Sabina?

Nice, I like that.

Is that Greek?

I don't know,

I didn't give it to myself, my Mom gave it to me.

Alright, so what I want you to do

is to close your eyes,

close your eyes,

wait, they're open, close 'em and hold 'em.

Breathe in.

Exhale, okay, I want you to forget about everything.

Imagine you're in a really nice place,

better than nice, maybe it's a beach

with white sands and blue skies,

you can feel the sand between your toes.

Off in the distance, you hear the sound of laughter,

loving, gentle laughter.

Who is it?

Okay.

Just focus,

focus and relax.

It's a familiar voice.

The laughter stops

and a familiar voice whispers in your ear.

Who is that voice?

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's Mom.

It's your Mom?

What does she say?

She's smiling at you and she is so beautiful,

beautiful like you.

Now what's she wearing?

Look closely.

She wants you to see her.

She's wearing...

Yep?

She's wearing like a red,

like a red dress

and she's got like flowers on it

and this ring with this little diamond on the setting

and then this other ring on this hand.

Stare into her eyes.

Mother and daughter, you're together in your place.

Do you feel it, are you there?

Yeah.

Now tell me, where is that place?

It was like Christmas Eve and we had to go to the church

and I fucking hated that, but then when we were there,

she was like crying during the service

and I felt so stupid.

Try to look me in the eyes,

when you talk about this,

'cause these stories,

you wanna tell people, you know, these are in you

and when you can look someone in the eyes

and tell them, it helps so much.

- Okay. - You know?

So what happened at the church?

There was just,

it was just Christmas Eve

and that's all, she just wanted me to go

and I didn't, but I was being mean to her

and then when we got there, she was so happy

and she was crying during the service and I felt so bad.

What would she,

what would you guys talk about,

what would she say at that church?

She just would say that, you know, she loved me.

And what would you say to her?

Right now?

Yeah, what would you say to your Mom right now?

I just really miss you.

I really miss you, that's all.

I love you, you know,

it was really fucked up, it was really fucked up.

So what would your Mom say to you right now,

if she could hear you say that?

She'd say I'm sorry too, it sucks.

She didn't wanna go.

Would she want you to come to wherever she is?

Yeah,

yeah.

I don't know where she.

When was the last time you saw your Mom?

I was 16 and we were at home

and then they came and they told her she had to leave,

because she missed an appointment at the center,

she missed her appointment.

What kind of center was that?

Immigration.

And what were you doing, when they took her?

I was hid...

You were hot

- or you were high? - I was hiding.

Would they have taken you too?

I don't know.

Sometimes I think maybe I should've gone with her.

I don't know.

I don't even know where she was taken to.

I just, I just really miss her, that's all

and I'm figuring it out, it's okay, I got this.

Listen, what happened to you is not your fault

and no matter what you think, we're here for you

and my staff will do everything we can

to help you find your mother,

but it's gonna take a lot of time and a lot of hard work.

No, I don't have any time, I don't have any time,

I have been waiting since I was 16, okay

and I have been out here all by myself doing it alone

and every time there has been a helping hand,

it's had a razor blade in it.

Listen, I understand, trust me, I do.

No, no.

How many years have you been alone?

Where's your mother?

Do you even have a plan?

What, march into the blizzard and hope for the best?

If you leave now, you're gonna be on your own

and there's nothing we can do to help you.

But if you stay, there's an open bed,

okay?

Fuck!

Fuck!

Shit.

Oh, my God, yes!

Oh, shit.

It's your place now.

Fuck!

Remove your hats, your scarves, your shoes

and place them in the bin.

Keep the line moving, ladies, we don't wanna be cold either.

No booze, no drugs,

no pets, no outside blankets,

any and all contraband will be confiscated.

You'll be busted, disgusted and won't be trusted.

You sure you're in the right place?

Been a long day for me too,

shit, a long year.

Hopefully they fixed the bunk problem in this place,

since I been here last,

I been walking around

looking like I have the measles all week, see.

Alright, ladies, it's getting late and I wanna go to bed.

You're too pretty to be in this place anyway.

How'd you end up here?

Don't you have a man or something?

I'm not here to make friends

and if I had one fuck to give, it wouldn't be for a man.

- I hear that, amen to that. - Ladies, I won't ask again.

- Hi, Cornel. - Search this one.

Don't you touch me.

Ma'am, calm down.

- Help! - I'm just doing my job!

- Assault! - You know the rules.

- Police brutality! - Come on,

don't make me hurt you, come on now, come on.

- No! - It'll be alright.

- Police brutality. - It'll be okay.

He's hurting me, he's hurting me,

- this man has no mercy. - Alright.

- Help! - No problem, real good.

Next.

Ain't you a sight for sore eyes?

Here.

Sign in.

- You got any ID? - No, I don't have any ID,

I don't have a driver's license, I don't have a state ID,

I don't even have a passport, like this, this is it.

No pay stub?

No, no, I don't have any of that.

Look, I was here earlier, I talked to Dr. Laura

and she said if I wanted a bed, I should come back here,

so I came back.

Yeah, Dr. Laura.

Huh?

You know,

I really like to bend the rules,

but for you, I guess I could make an exception.

Just shower next time, you smell like ass.

♪ And so I'll be here and there ♪

You know, you're much too good for this place.

Let me take you somewhere more comfortable.

♪ If I hopped into bed ♪

Are you gonna go?

No.

Ew, no way!

That motherfucker has serial killer

written all over his face,

he's so like fucked up, "Bride of Chucky,"

Easy-Bake Oven, zombie shit, you know.

I hate him.

What the fuck is an ugly ass dude like that

gonna do to a woman like you anyway, huh?

Look, I'll tell you what,

if it was me,

I'd go.

Shut the fuck up.

- Yeah. - You'd go?

I'd blow anybody to get out of here.

- I bet you would. - I would.

That's nasty, that's so nasty.

- It's not nasty. - That is so nasty.

That's the way shit works.

Look, you get what you get,

you have your assets and you fucking use them.

- No way. - You're being stupid.

Let go of your motherfucking pride.

You wanna stay in a fucking shelter

for the rest of your life?

Stupid.

Yeah, I know.
