My name is Roc, and for two
years I've been in a coma.

I don't know why the hell pigs
like you are allowed to play.

This here is Ignasi,
my roommate.

No, please no clowns.

and this is my mother.

It's not for you!
It's for him!

-But isn't he in a coma?
-Yes, so?, and?,

He hears everything
and sees everything.

My mother is right, I know everything
that happens in the hospital.

Toni doesn't have a driving license,
I'll have to call social services.

I'm afraid that I'll lose custody.

The problems of the new arrivals...

They have to cut off my leg.

-I love these silences.
-This silence is nothing...

compared to when they
see you're missing a leg.

...and those like me,
we're already veterans.

-Does it hurt?
-This? No.

And does it hurt you?

I mean being so thin.

I'll call your father to tell him that
the operation will be tomorrow.

At the hospital,
children may be bald,

too thin, have broken bones,

a problem heart,
or always wear pyjamas.

However, this doesn't mean we stop
being children, wanting to have fun.

When I lost it, I had a
farewell party for my leg.

Really?

Yes, a doctor told me that,
and I thought, why not?

We could form a group
and do your party.

-What do you mean?
-I always say that...

I won't die of cancer here,
but of boredom.

In every group of friends there
are always six types of people:

the leader, the hansome one,
the smart one,

The indispensable one,

the 2nd leader who would be
leader if there wasn't a leader,

and the girl.

-And what's the party for?
-Saying goodbye to Jordi's leg.

I'd like to have a last
dance on two legs,

it might be a nice way
of saying goodbye.

Today Jordi, will lose a leg, but
he has just gained two friends,

and that here, is a half of life.

From my room,
I could feel Jordi's fear.

Perhaps what's most frightening,
isn't the operating table,

nor the number of
knives of different sizes,

but, that there are so many people.
And all have a role to play.

Curiously, many hands
are needed to cut off a leg.

You feel like you've a secondary role,
when in reality you're the true star.

Three hours playing the role
of the boy who lost a leg.

And you have to endure it well,
because, 20% do not survive.

-You all right, Jordi?
-A little nervous.

Don't worry you'll be
asleep in no time and...

And I'll be without a leg, is this
how you mean to cheer me up?

Look, you just have to count
backwards, from ten to zero,

and when you get to
seven you'll be asleep.

How long will it take
me to wake up?

My doctor in Andorra
said it would be 3 hours.

-Will it seem long to me?
-Jordi, hey,

it's very fast, really,
You know what works?

You can choose something
you like very much,

for example, think about the
best time in your life.

You take this moment,
and split it into two parts,

the first part you think about
now, and the second part,

I assure you, will come to you
immediately you wake up.

And... that memory can he split?

So, for example if you
love chocolate cake,

with strawberries and cream
that's inside the fridge,

you imagine that you open
the door, You take the cake,

and then on the verge of
biting it, you stop that thought.

You'll see that when you wake up,

it'll seem as if no time has
passed at all, and then you eat it.

-I know what I'll think about.
-Yes? great.

but above all, split it
at the best moment, eh?

Shall we?

ready.
-We can begin.

Ten...

nine...

eight...

What are you doing here?

Nothing, I'm waiting.

But you know the operation
lasts 3 hours, don't you?

-Have you been told?
-Yes, I know,

they recommended that I go home
or go and eat something, but...

The closer you are to where
they operate,

You more you feel that you
keep him company.

Yes.

When they operated on Lleó,
I grabbed his trousers and t-shirt,

And wore them during the
whole operation,

I thought that like
that, I'd be with him.

although the clothes were a
bit on the tight side.

I've also taken something
of Jordi's, To have his smell.

If he knew, he'd get really mad...

Lleó almost killed me later,
He said I'd stretched everything.

And your husband?

You told me he was coming
from Andorra today, didn't you?

He had to go to a very
important meeting.

And he missed the plane,

He says that he should get
here in a few hours,

He devotes himself to conciliating
between companies and workers.

He's supposed understand
what both parties need.

But it seems to me that...

he's not very sympathetic.

Come on, let's go get a coffee.

The cafeteria is on the ground floor
just below the operating room,

If you raise your head it'll be
as if you're seeing him.

Only a wall will separate you.

They should have already
started the operation,

I'm sure that Dr. Abel must
have already explained to him

that thing about spliting
a good memory.

-Perhaps he's changed the technique.
-No way!

When doctors have a trick,
they always use it.

What did you think about?

I split a memory that I'd
never had, I cheated.

And that was?

-Nothing, just a silly thing.
-Go on, tell me about it.

No, really, it was
just a silly thing.

Come, let's go Lleó, there are
new models of legs for you to try.

Do you remember what you
told me about the group?

-It's going well, we already have 3.
-This is looking good.

You only need three more,
to find the rest of the group.

You'll know as soon
as we will find them,

and I hope today I find a leg.

I wish I could find a couple
of vertebrae for my back.

See you later.

Sometimes, I miss playing, I like
hearing the sounds of the games,

and not just the ones
coming from the games,

but also the sounds coming
from the people playing them.

I even miss my mother's
voice shouting "stop playing".

Ok, stop playing with that,
you'll drive yourself crazy.

I thought you were my
mother, all mothers are alike.

-Where are your parents?
-Hard at work I suppose.

I hope I go home today, I can't
stand being in hospital any more.

-You're not clowning, today!
-No, not today.

Today's a very special day
for Roc and me.

Why? Every day must be
the same for him,

the whole day in the bed,
that's a good life man.

No, not every day is the
same for him.

Today is his birthday.
He's been here 2 years now.

I've been here a day and
I can't take any more.

Do you want all three of us
to play something?

Yeah, how about, hide and seek,
Roc hides and we have to find him.

Come on, you're moving rooms.

-What's wrong with this room?
-I said room, I didn't say bad room.

Hey, watch what you say or I
may report you for child abuse.

And what about you? What do you call
what you've done? Apologize to her.

I won't apologize,
it was a joke and good one.

Very well, then come on, you
have to go for some tests.

-I'm not going home today?
-No,

and from what I can see,
neither today nor the weekend,

you have to do a test that's...
painful,

but I'm sure a tough guy like
you won't have a problem.

I'll tell them you don't need
any anesthetic.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have
made that joke.

Satisfied?

-And Roc.
-Roc can't hear me...

Very well, then prepare yourself
for unbearable pain.

Okay,

I'm sorry Roc.

-alright now?
-That's better.

Also, I believe I made a mistake,

because I think they only have
to do an x-ray on you.

Look you're a liar...

Roc, why don't you go and talk
to those boys over there?

-But we don't know each other.
-So, go and introduce yourself.

They won't want to be
friends, I'm new.

Of course they'll want to be friends,
they're children,

they'll ask you a question,
or some silly test,

and they'll immediately
think you're a great guy,

and they'll want to be friends
with you and you'll have a group.

I don't need a group,

I already have the PSP and
loads of games to amuse myself.

-Give it here.
-Hey!

Either you start making friends,
or you don't get the PSP back.

choose.

Come on.

Hello!

What do you want?

-Nothing, just that I'm new.
-New and lily white.

You look like a snowflake.

I'd like to be friends.

Look Roc, you have to pass a
test if you want to be our friend.

Good idea,
Do you see that dive platform?

It is very high that platform.

Not that one, the other one.

You'd have to be crazy
to jump from there.

Well that's what you have to do,
if you want to be friends with us.

Many times a silence is more
powerful than ten thousand words.

I'd like to wake up, to tell you
that you shouldn't feel guilty.

And leastwise on that day,
it wasn't your fault.

-Hey, boss! Where are you going?
-To radiography, for this boy.

-And where are you off to with Lleó?
-To orthopedics.

To see if we can find a leg to fit him.
-About time, right, Lleó?

Yeah, yeah, maybe wait little longer
and I'll even grow a new one.

Whats up? Did the
brakes jam or something?

Relax, imagine we've stopped
at a traffic light, eh?

Juanma, come here a minute.

-You're new, aren't you?
-New,

but soon I'll be history
because I'll be leaving.

Yeah, yeah, everyone says that,
what's your name?

Move on kid,

I have a full gang of mates.
I don't want any more friends.

Dammit Mercero, where did you find
this asshole, in a pack of idiots?

Whatever his anger may be, it'll
pass away soon, buddy, let's go.

It must be a shit not
having a leg, right?

It must be a shit not
having a brain, right?

- Hello.
- Hello.

How's Jordi,
have you heard anything?

No no, not yet,

later I'll pass by
the operating theater.

You look great.

Jordi's already told me
that you're in the group

Yes, it's cool, thanks.

Where are you going now?

-To do some tests.
-What tests?

Nothing, some hospital nonsense.
-Going where?

Yes, some nonsense,
a few blood tests,

urine in the blood, or blood
in the urine, I don't know.

Okay, see you later,
good luck with the nonsense.

Bye!

You didn't want to tell her, eh?

No, I don't want to be the first guy she
accompanies to try some artificial legs,

She can start off with someone else.

Of course, man.

-Doctor, his vital signs are dropping.
-Shit.

Load the atropine.
Blood please, Merche.

Charging...

clear...

now.

The sound of death I've heard
it often since the day I arrived

Many people don't know it, but that
beep could be the sound of death.

Now Jordi, is in that strange
place between life and death.

He can end up by returning, going,
or remain like me.

The curious thing,
is that in this strange state,

I end up by connecting with them.

Somehow, they come to me.

Hello!

Hello!

-Have we met?
-Yes, from sight, at the hospital.

At the hospital?
What hospital?

Where am I?

Look, my name's Roc, and for
2 years I've been in a coma,

this, is my daily life,

I'm always here,
I like it.

And me? What am I doing here?
Is this my place?

No, you don't have
a place yet, because...

because you probably won't
remain in a coma and will return.

Listen, can you hear?

They're trying to bring me back.

Yes, and they attempt
it with many people, eh!

Do you want to join me?

I've been alone a long time,
and it's a bit boring.

Maybe I shouldn't do anything
if I have to return.

If they manage to bring you
back, they'll do it wet or dry,

but at least this way,
we enjoy ourselves, right?

One...

two...

and three!

Look, In case you return,
can you do me a favour?

Yeah, sure, what?

Can you speak to my mother?
And tell her...

...tell her it wasn't her fault.

What wasn't her fault?

-In case, she doesn't believe me.
-Of course, just say to her.

Ah, tell her not to stick out her
tongue while working,

I always said that someone
would steal her tongue,

I was the only one
to say that to her,

so she'll believe you.

See you around.
Goodbye.

We have him.
He's ours.

Gauze please.

Let's clean this up a bit.

Hi Ivan, Ignasi here...

Yeah, yeah, still at the hospital, but
it's nothing, so they'll send me home.

You'll see...
Hey, I wanted to ask you something...

Why don't you visit me?

Yeah, sure, sure.

Hey, Ivan! Hello? Wait...
I think I'm losing you.

It think that now...
Shit, I've been cut off.

Do you know that you make a
lot of noise with that phone?

-What?
-You've made 23 calls,

each time you've been one
and a half minutes on average.

My head's about to explode
from listening to you so much.

-Sorry, sorry about coming in.

I couldn't get a signal and...
-Besides,

why do you call so many
people so many times?

It is clear that nobody
wants to see you.

Man, that's not why, look,

they have things to do and that's it,

I wouldn't be going to see a
friend in the hospital if I was out.

Then... perhaps you're
not friends.

If you want, you can
stay here awhile.

No, the fact is that I've...

I have to...
-To make calls?

Three meters over there please.

Hello Toni.

What? making new friends?

No, I only like friends,
who don't come to to see him

and say they have things to do.

If I had phone and he called me,
yes maybe we'd be friends.

Look, this man's a police officer
and he wants to speak to you,

Well, you'll have to go so that I can
take a statement from your grandson.

Oh, no, no, if you want I'll sit here
and I won't bother anyone.

No, I'm sorry, these are the rules.

Calm down grandpa, besides,

supposing that he is a police officer,
I don't have to say anything, right?

Okay.

Listen Toni.

I guess you know why I'm here.

-Because of the motorcycle?
-Exactly,

you had an accident with the
motorcycle, and we want to know,

who gave you permission
to take it without a license.

What?

-Was it your grandfather?
-What?

I'm asking you,

if it was your grandfather who gave
you permission to take the bike.

What are you saying?

It's okay Toni,
we'll talk another day.

-What are you doing here?
-You don't lie very well,

whenever you lie,
you touch your eye.

No Way!

So, today you have to choose
the leg that you'll receive, right?

Yes but, I don't have much choice,
because my father's run out of cash.

I'll settle for the basic.

And what's the basic?

It's the one that comes with
the insurance, the pirate leg.

The pirate leg.

-The terrible pirate leg.
-You know what?

My father always says that when
you're going to buy something,

the important thing is that
they explain everything well,

and in the end you
always have to say:

I'll return,
I have to think about it.

Man, wouldn't it be
nice to do that.

But we'd have a good
laugh with the feet though.

Let's do it.

I don't know...

Come on, yes, let's do it.

Are you sure?

No, no...

Yes, do it!

do it.

And your father?

He's in Canet.

Look, I've changed my mind.

Show me everything you've got.

Sometimes the hospital,
is rather strange,

The same space,
and different hopes.

Terminator.

Toni, how did it go?

I acted like a dummy,
it always works.

although the worst thing, is
not wanting to be in this space,

And not having any emotion inside,

because you need the excitement
you find outside.

Is this one the leg with dynamic foot,
and four-axis hydraulic knee?

Yes, it's the same one,

it's the one you've chosen
all afternoon.

How long have you been
without a leg?

Almost 9 months, like a pregnancy
but in reverse,

instead of gaining members,
I lose them.

These are gorgeous,
you look like Terminator 2.

They retail at 26,000 euros.

Hello.

Sorry, I've slept so little that I
thought I'd stretch out for a bit.

There are some new developments,
if you'd like to accompany me.

Is Jordi okay?

I believe that something happened,
but he's okay.

-What?
-He's okay now.

What do you know?
How is he?

-They said something happened.
-Wait here, please.

-What's happened?
-I don't know.

-What happened?!
-I don't know!

Why weren't you here?
Eh?

Why weren't you here, instead
of going to a crappy meeting,

to bring peace to a crappy company?
-It's okay, calm down.

Jordi, honey.
How are you?

-Are they taking him to the ICU?
-Yes, 24 hours in observation,

and then back to his room.

-How did it go?
-It went very well, almost a record.

You'll be able to see him,
as soon as he wakes up.

And they've removed the tumor?

-Completely.
-Thank you.

-Thats good news, eh?
-Yes.

listen...

I have to go to a meeting,

I'll be back tomorrow morning,
anything new, call my mobile.

-Why do you have to go?
-I'm sorry, really,

but I'm in the middle of a negotiation,
and if I don't return...

Go to hell.

At the hospital, sometimes there
wasn't time to control ones emotions.

Everything goes fast:
joy, sadness.

I have a feeling,

it's because there are so many
different emotions in one day,

that they must fade out quickly,
otherwise,

new ones won't be able to come in.

-Jordi.
-Jordi.

-Jordi.
-Jordi.

-Jordi.
-Eh.

He doesn't want to wake up.
Jordi!

Another kiss...

...a kiss

a kiss please.

-What's he saying?
-I don't know, a kiss, didn't he?

...a kiss...

...a kiss, please.

-I'm not giving him a kiss.
-Go on, give him one.

This bald guy...

just had his leg off.

-Go on.
-Don't.

Yes, man.

Another kiss...

go on, another kiss...

I don't know if this guy's asleep
or just playing dumb, eh?

Come on, let him rest.

In no time, he'll be
back in his room.

A kiss...

Jordi, are you okay?

We'll increase your
sedative a little, okay?

...Jordi...

...How are you?...

...You've done very well...
Yes.

The doctor says it went really well
and you're very, very brave.

I'm sorry Lleó.

We'll find a way,
don't worry.

Hey, before you came to hospital,
did you have a boyfriend?

Some time ago, but...

-Did he go to your school?
-Yeah, and you.

Yes, I had one but hey,
I had to leave her.

Didn't she like the hospital?

Well, I dunno,
she was always saying...

she didn't like hospitals and
she had a relative who...

became ill and hey,
it's as if she had some trauma,

and well, I don't know.

-And are you still talking to him?
-Nah.

We stopped speaking to
each other, some time ago.

What the hell are you doing here?

Nothing, they told me that
you weren't well.

And I thought you'd like a visit.

But man, I didn't call you,
Why have you come?

What happened to him?

He's in a coma!
Man, can you go now?

-I think we could be friends!
-But...

but look, you don't have friends,
You've never had any,

Now, you can go out of here...
I don't need your crappy friendship!

Eehh! Who do you think you are?

You think that you can decide
who can or can't be your friend.

You're a shit!
That's what you are!

I'll come back another day.

I'm sorry Ignasi,

Ignasi!

I'm sorry, I didn't mean it.

-Is this my bed?
-Yes.

This is the life,
the whole day lying in bed.

-Then I'll bring you a wheelchair.
-Will I be able to get up today?

You have to do it, the doctor
will explain to you later,

it's important that today
you move yourself a bit,

to help with the circulation
of blood to the stump.

Can I give you some advice?

-Tell me if you don't want to hear it.
-Yes yes, sure.

I believe that all these years,
I've taken...

hundreds of lads without a leg
to their room from the ICU...

and I've realized what scares you...

it's hard what I'm telling you,
but on the same night,

go to the bathroom, and view
your entire body in the mirror.

I've noticed that the longer you
delay it, the harder it is to overcome.

Hey, do you fancy speeding up a bit?
Yes...eh!

How are you?

I thought you'd be
all day in the ICU.

I had to come back, we have to
finish forming the group, right?

By the way, you have to
lend me another bracelet.

Sure, sure.

Right, I'll go away and
leave you here...

to do this mother and
son stuff, so lovely to see.

Mercero!
Son of a bitch!

Don't sit there!

I'm Sorry Jordi,
I didn't realize.

-Where's Dad?
-Dad?

He had to...

Yeah...
like always.

-Don't you want to eat any more, Nuno?
-No, I'm not hungry.

-Besides, I don't have any more room.
-No, I understand,

You don't have the
stomach for these things.

I couldn't have said it better myself

-Can I come in?
-Sure,

Look Nuno, meet Lleó my early
morning gymnastics buddy.

This is Nuno, my night
room companion.

-Nice to meet you.
-Aha...

so this is the clever boy
you're always talking about.

One tries to be clever,
though it's not always achieved.

What do you want Lleó?

Except for trading, you never
come to this old men's floor.

How did it go,
the quest for a leg?

Yes look, that's why I came,
on business.

-Can you spare a moment?
-Business?

Sure, sure,
I'd love to, let's go.

-Have a nice day.
-Bye, bye.

See, today I was looking at legs,
and it turns out,

that the one that I'd like to have
isn't covered by insurance,

it's more expensive.

And my father, as I've explained
before, doesn't have much money,

and can't afford it,

and so I thought, if it's ok with you,
you could lend me the money,

and I'd start working and
pay you back bit by bit.

-hmm, hmm, hmm...
-I'll do it! don't worry.

-I always keep a promise.
-Wait, wait...

Let's see, take it in steps.
How much money do you need?

-26,000 euros.
-Damn, this leg costs a fortune.

Yes look, I thought so too,
a leg costs a kidney.

If you want I can start work at
fifteen if you need the money earlier.

And the one paid for by insurance.
What's wrong with it?

Well, it's a crappy leg,
I want a leg to return to a normal life,

-it's not a whim it's a necessity.
-Hey, I can imagine.

I'd lend it to you but,
I don't have it.

I don't have money.

Dammit, you're older,
you must have money.

But I've never earned very much...

I'm sorry,
if I had it, I'd lend it you.

I'll think of another idea.

Alright, goodbye.

Hello, Roc.

Thank you for helping
me get back.

I've come to fulfill my promise.

but first, I want you to be
part of our group.

We're forming one, and I believe, that
you must be the indispensable one.

A friend of Lleó's told us that
the essential one, is so important,

that without him,
the group doesn't exist.

That's to say,
we'll be nothing without you.

So...

I'm sure you'll return soon.

Welcome to the group Roc.

Hello, my name's Jordi,

although you may not believe it,
I met your son in a dream.

and he gave me a message.

"It wasn't your fault,"

"it wasn't"

That's all he said.

Ah! and stop sticking out your tongue,
otherwise one day you'll get it stolen.

I felt good.

I knew it was hard for my mother,

but that would give her one more
year of strength to fight for me.

that day was a day
of losses and gains.

Losses of boys, who thought they had
many friends, and perhaps had none.

Losses for people, who cannot
have the leg of their dreams.

And finally, losses so recent,
that you still don't see the benefit.

Breathe, deep breaths.

How can such a young boy
have heart attacks?

-Who are we missing?
-The clever one and the handsome one.

And can't you be the handsome one?

-What are you doing here, Tony?
-I'm talking with...

what's your name?

Roc
-You're speaking with Roc?

He speaks to me.

You can't fool me,
he didn't say anything to you.

-Do you want to join a group?
-If everyone in the group are like you,

I'll pass.

What are you doing?

Do you know that this
is Cristina's breakfast?

Are you afraid that
your brother will die?

-Wait five minutes Lleó...
-Joana!

-Who are you in the group?
-The leader.

Like hell,
I'll be the leader.

What are you doing?

You're the girl, right?

Yeah, you're not the smart one,
that's for sure.
