Novak is in fact a pseudonym.

For all I know is one of the most achieved literary secrets.

Of his life little is known, but by the conjectures of certain biographers,

that attribute the same age of the character,

who owes his consecration international.

Laszlo, his tormented hero Winter trip.

His fame began in 1978 with this epistolary romance,

under the most stringent reviews ...

and a wide range of audiences.

I would ask David to tell us something.

It is one of the men most scholars I know,

Also the environment of the international publishers ...

that is pleased to be considered a cynical enterprise.

I am very grateful to Claire ...

for his noble words.

When I started this job ...

my one and only rule of behavior, It was to disappear:

leaving the scene only to the author.

Since I deal Serge Novak,

I keep transgressing.

And sometimes I have the impression ...

how to say, to make spiritualism.

Azi.Germania ...

the eyes of the young adulteress They stare at me.

oscillating between fear and pleasure ...

He has recognized the strange currently being tested,

when it is seen against our will.

Yes Yes.

Now you understand why Fabrizio was in a hurry?

This is family trait. Even you were in a hurry.

But that stupid. I knew you.

Are you sure?

What is known about it? Everything you need to know.

Let me guess:

Land in Paris,

He works as a model ...

and catches the young Finish her.

I just hope you keep Fabrizio out of trouble.

This is the most important character the family. The invisible man...

Nice to meet you.

We can name basis.

Daniel.

Now have fun ...

They have decided where to go? to Guatemala.

Ah, it's a beautiful journey. I hope it is.

and you? They will stay here? I do not believe.

Come on.

Hi Daniel.

I thought about you during these days.

I do not think I've been very lucky, meet.

We two we'll see. It is impossible to avoid.

what they have seen beautiful? Almost nothing.

Moreover, we have hardly left the hotel. How is that?

Because of me.

Or Mila fault.

Now they have become What do you think?

It will not work as a model. I will not let more from.

What else do know?

nothing. Liar!

perfectly speaks four languages. it is not true.

If that is true. Oh yeah? and which one is it?

Fabrizio exaggerates.

A part of my tongue, I speak English, French and Yiddish.

And where does this talent for languages?

I have no idea. These are things that are easy to me.

Girl thought it was one child prodigy.

My mother had the myth of France ...

and sent me where her friend to Paris to study for two years.

I came here wanting iddish study.

The language of my grandfather.

But where are you, exactly?

Mine were Wielopola.

I also am born there, but I've always lived in Krakow.

Also my family is from Krakow.

But I've never been to Poland.

Amazing. Daniel talks about his family!

I had an idea.

Maybe Mila could help.

Not looking for someone for translations?

You know that Daniel has rituals some individuals when writing.

I could answer him for once?

No, I do not need anyone.

You are gentle.

A real pleasure to be in your company.

Fabrizio, please.

10 years ago I must be careful, not to irritate the great writer.

Now I get tired.

Hi.

Why did you come to do?

I do not want you to think that I asked Fabrizio work for you.

It was his idea.

And all this?

Why do you treat me like that? I do not like stunts.

I could not imagine what could happen.

Then behave as if never has happened. -I can not.

I do nothing but think of you.

Instead for me, this story He has not even begun.

Many like you ...

they think they can control everything. But they are wrong.

Why did you marry?

Stop pretending that you care Fabrizio ...

He told me that you never cared about him.

What David says? Yet you have not read, but it is not important.

how is that? Because this time is your opinion what interests me.

It will be something different, something more personal. That is to say?

This time will not be Laszlo.

You have decided to leave?

20 years ago I wore it.

And why just now?

I gave everything I have nothing to say.

I did not expect.

I am so curious.

It is just the beginning.

You'll be ready to read but maybe desilucione.

I do not believe.

You could go wrong. it has never happened.

you've seen? It was Daniel. Where?

There, the car has passed. He pretended not to see us.

Maybe he is ashamed before you. in front of me? Why?

Because he knows that ever You can have you.

Why you tell me that thing Daniel's?

Betrays Nicoletta?

Not exactly, but it is a libertine.

so, what do you know? it looks.

They seem inseparable.

In fact they love!

But, if you had read his novels,

you'd know that girls your age, likes a lot.

Give me one.

It is strange that I trusted me.

What do you mean?

The history of the pseudonym.

Strange that it has accepted you contases me.

He has not accepted.

I have put before the fact.

Daniel?

I am Mila.

I have a my place now.

Rue du Port, No. 80.

I wait for you.

Where are you going?

I can not sleep.

It comes from my country ...

He speaks my language. I do not know anything about it ...

I know you came into my life and not want to leave.

Daniel.

how are you? Pretty good, thanks.

Is you're okay.

So you like it? A lot.

It is distinct from the she remembered.

It was Mila who continued the work. Yes. It is true.

He has done most of it.

I could not have done without the architect.

He had never managed a home.

It ends up being modest. It is not modesty. it's true.

You do not mind the truth, every so often. Trust me.

I'll see if he needs something.

You want?

the last. it's okay.

You have seen Daniel? I do not know where it ended.

No, i have not seen it.

Thank you.

For you. For you, love.

We were pretty right? Above all, Mila.

I think they are still. Thank you.

How long you have known?

Not long ago. But we are very close.

Only our relationship has changed a bit. Recently.

Why?

They've gotten into a situation it seems complicated.

Nicoletta you are looking for.

Before looking at Fabrizio Mila and I realized one thing.

Of what?

I'm a little embarrassed to tell you. no, I do not say it.

It is one of those thoughts that You will never need to confess.

I realize that...

that what has really United...

and they do nothing, you make love.

And I must say that,

in a sense, the thing It turns me on...

Yes, indeed.

Excuse me a moment.

Here it is.

You are here her husband. It is true?

In the office of his son. You want to call him?

No, it does not matter, I have no time.

Bye.

I've seen her at her party ...

He likes to meddle in Life of the others. -It is true.

Eva insinuated.

I stand only because it is the best friend of Mila.

It's more...

You have not told me yet, What do you think of her?

You can not say it has character.

I expected a response less diplomatic.

What do you want to know?

If you like?

If you think the person just for me?

I think that with it you never get bored.

Oh, listen.

I wanted to tell you if she is interested I still need to work for me.

Oh yeah. I call soon be happy.

Hello? Mila.

There is a person who wants to make a proposal.

You the way.

Mila ...

I am daniel. Listen respect to that job ...

Why do you call yourself by Fabrizio?

We must agree.

If you'll could happen tomorrow, so we speak.

I can not tomorrow.

So anytime.

Agree.

Who was?

You ask who he was? You're bothering me now.

It was he?

If he was.

what did he said? wants to see me.

not immediately say yes. It is what I did.

All right.

I like this one.

I'll gift.

There is no single copy of your books.

and you surprised? do not.

Have you read any?

Everybody.

Which one do you like the most?

First.

Why just that?

When I read Winterreise I love the character Lazlo.

Now, I know you, achievement not know if it resembles you.

No I have never nor entedido.

But you should know how about you in that novel.

It's difficult.

You have not answered me.

What do you want to know?

The story of the hero's mother ...

If I remember correctly, dies during the delivery...

having survived in Auschwitz.

Yes, so you remember Perfected.

I've always wondered, if it was your story and your mother.

do not. You've invented?

It's a story that I have been told a friend.

Writers do well always steal the lives of others.

Tell me about this friend.

What else you want?

Tell me what it was?

It was a very complicated one.

He was not content to have one life.

He committed suicide at age 20.

He was my best friend.

So? Do you think my preferred reading?

This time I think readers Novak will have a surprise.

I hope not.

Readers hate surprises. Imagine...

Graham Greene if he had abandoned God, sin and grace,

and he had begun to write silly novels.

And you imagine that instead of Joyce writing Ulysses ...

he had continued writing all people of Dublin life.

Finish discuss how children,

and leave at least explain because I was excited.

It is the first time the enigmatic, Serge Novak cerebral and sophisticated ...

suggests some of their life.

Y...

if I may ...

Also, mine.

No dear, I'm not agree.

Writers always invent.

I have never believed the stories of Hemingway, about the war,

let alone 10,000 words Simenon.

Silly of Eve wants away from you!

He says you can only hurt me. That must end.

You may be right.

I do not think that is what you want,

but if it is what you think then You're a fool you too.

It's not the first time.

What are you doing?

How is it that you and Daniel They are often called?

He calls you more than me! You have been you that I have proposed me to work for him ...

I have seen that were arguing tonight, you and Mila.

For a moment I wondered if ...

instead of helping you is not creating problems.

No, it's not. You need a method.

is young should learn. No doubt.

I have done only indulge ...

I know. And I appreciate that.

But I do not want you feel committed.

A friend asked me to help her to find someone.

We can use.

It's too late, and be offended ...

You know, it seems, but it is fragile. and my ...

I do not feel fragile.

Absolutely.

Thank you.

I do it.

David is gone? Half an hour ago.

Sorry. I must go I'm late, until the night.

Who is it? Daniel.

you want to talk with Mila? If I speak.

Is sleeping.

Wake her up.

is Daniel. whether?

Come home immediately Eve. Why?

You like I said!

I have to go.

Now? He could not answer!

He could disconnect.

I'll see what he wants. I'll be right back.

Wait for me.

Sometimes I wonder why you married.

Because you're rich.

whether? Where are you? I must talk to you.

I have a flight in 10 minutes. you take not wait for me. Lllego immediately.

You can not tell me what it is?

No phone.

What happened?

Why you looking at me like that? Who are these?

Eva's father. what do you know about them?

Why? I met this man.

So? What is wrong with this picture?

Eva how old? temperature minus 25

His father was dead, when was born.

If it is true he not met. Discovered recently it was his father.

At least that's what he told me. But you know how?

and that's not what you told your friend? what he had to say?

Because you do not answer? you know nothing?

I have received this morning.

this was too.

What has Paul in this story? I found her in the same house,

where They have taken the other photo.

whose house is It? Eve.

Who is this woman?

Come on.

The book had a great success and when he came to see me ...

and he told me his story Paul Dembinski,

I thought it was a poor mitómana, looking for money.

and what's his name? Girl...

Pesko, I think.

You can not take care of a ghost.

Even though Eva was her daughter, You can not do anything to you know.

Instead, it is the other photo you should worry.

It is a work of professionals this.

They know who you are, and want to beat you on your weaknesses.

Why are you talking in the plural? Plus? You have not understood?

Mila was his friend. Do not say ridiculous!

Mila has nothing to do. It would be crazy.

Fabrizio should have married just to get me?

It is absurd.

However, her friend Eva ...

How do you do to exclude?

What do you know about her? Nothing! He has come from out of nowhere.

And so? You've become a voyeur?

I talk with Mila.

Mila!

Look who's your friend.

You can not take a step without you.

I leave you alone.

What are you doing here?

I want to address Eva in Krakow. Krakow? Why?

When you get it?

This morning, when I called.

They have brought in the house of Eva. Why do not you tell me right away?

I was not sure... from my?

Yes.

And now?

Fabrizio is watching us.

Why have you wanted to do?

According to you? it can be expected of all.

I did not think he would take advantage of me. You have been asked money?

Since yesterday sought her and did not return. The direction?

Skopnijek, Nr.10.

whether? I have the impression that You have not understood,

Look to your left.

Listen to me very well.

I left a message on your study. Check it soon.

Good day. They have left something for me?

He wants to call his wife? do not.

What a beautiful surprise! How are you here?

I wanted to tell you. what's wrong with it?

I do not know. I am sorry.

I hope it's nothing serious.

You are sure to want to go alone?

You do not want to go with you?

No thanks, it is not necessary. I'll call you as soon as I arrive.

Without this novel'd never rich.

5 million francs or I will tell you Nicoletta and your family what you did.

It takes time to put together the entire amount.

25 years have passed, when you stole his novel.

I've waited long enough.

Good afternoon.

Mrs. Nina Pesko lives here?

I know nothing.

Let us just a couple of questions.

Pesko Nina died two years ago.

Mrs. Nina says Pesko He died two years ago.

I do understand. Keep asking.

Even his son Andrei is dead. Eva's dad?

No, Andrei was not the father of Eva but I thought it was.

Nina told the truth Before die.

They say the father of Eva He was a writer.

He's gone and no one has seen a lot.

No adult came here the funeral.

Eva is a beautiful girl but although ...

It is said to live in Switzerland It is true?

Thank you.

Thank you.

I must be wrong.

Excuse me if I have bothered.

You're sure everything's okay?

Yes, yes, no problem.

I hug you.

Nicoletta?

Where are you?

It downloaded the phone.

I wanted to tell you that all is well, at least I think.

Tomorrow will return the doctor and I'll know more.

I thought you were at home.

Nic. I send a kiss.

Hello? Fabrizio are you? Nicoletta? It's Me.

Mila.

Sorry to call at this hour. I can not find Daniel.

I talked about a trip but ...

I was distracted, I do not remember, where was.

I thought I could sorry said something ...

I do not have the slightest idea where can be.

Who is it?

I am sorry. let me know if you have news. Bye.

I asked you who was? my lover.

If you discover that have a lover, I murder you.

And to me that you do me?

What I think ...

Debnov know the forest? Yeah right.

He talks about Debnov, Tarnow way, no?

how long does it take to get there? no more than one hour.

Very good. Come on.

You've always done this work? do not.

I've been in the police for more 20 years.

But it has never amused me.

That day we had left in the first train in the morning,

to reach the house than mine They had left forever.

a house which kept few memories.

The landscape of this region It seemed elementary.

They were seen in all parts meadows, orchards,

forest roads leading forests ...

Lazlo seemed unusually curious, exitado for that visit.

Showed that particular way that I had to listen and keep quiet.

He should have a childhood fear of words...

because he knew full the power.

I had the feeling precise ...

his silence, knew what to do as a way of precaution ...

I almost do not want to touch with own words, the lives of others,

for fear of have an effect unexpected,

dreadful.

after all, still I knew nothing about him.

He is the guardian.

It seems that ever lived here.

He has confirmed that this town was the young writer committed suicide.

Before being confiscated the house He belonged to the father.

An aristocrat.

They lived in Paris.

Turned to make a search for his family.

For a novel.

Committed suicide apparently no reason.

who The house now belongs? On sale.

Mr. Boltanski?

My name Jost. I'm Herald Tribune correspondent

I can ask some questions? to me, for what purpose?

Some agencies are spreading any news that jurisdiction.

What new?

It would seem that behind Serge Novak the best-selling author is you.

But not all.

The same agency says the origin of this pseudonimo ...

it is because it would be after plagiarism ...

happened years ago of which you are the culprit.

You and your literary agent David G.

Damage to some Paul Dembinski.

Basta Ya!

But what is he doing? End it!

Daniel!

For!

But what happens?

Do not worry.

These go.

A tip Novak: Instead avoid to catch me well.

I'm just the first.

Others come and make the same questions.

But who are these? what they want from you?

What is happening to Daniel?

can you explain me? there is nothing to explain.

How is your father?

It is much better. No of worry.

I am sorry for this mess.

Maybe I should take a shower.

If I want to prepare something to eat. Thank you.

you wanted.

I suppose who they have gone to see you.

Yes, they have come have broken my balls all day.

I have contacted Seligmann.

It is best for these difficulties.

We can not do anything else, to trust everything a lawyer like him.

They have nothing in hand but ...

someone who makes them happen is needed the desire for good.

I want you to organize a conference press.

What does it mean? You want to do?

To say that Novak It has no sense anymore.

They will not leave you alone.

It's a turd.

There is no reason to do so.

I've decided.

I have also asked for money.

How much?

The copyright of the book.

Five million Swiss francs.

You never have any guarantee the end,

but you must pay.

It is the only way to have Nicolette out of this story.

I know.

And Mila, you must leave the Daniel ...

so you can not go on.

One can not live this way.

When your lover It gives you an appointment in a place like this,

I mean it's over.

Do not?

There is another solution?

Yes.

It depends on us.

What else did you find in Krakow?

The story of Eva your friend.

You been used to approach me and grab.

It is a complicated story, linked to his father. He has never spoken to you?

Do not.

What if you miss?

It does not seem possible.

It has nothing but ... Nothing.

And Fabrizio and Nicoletta?

This is the price to pay.

But you do not have the courage start another life?

Daniel truth?

We will do too bad those who love us.

I am sorry.

I must go Fabrizio I am waiting for me.

how long ago you're here? enough.

Do not say anything.

You must disappear.

But you must promise me leave Fabrizio out of it.

I prefer things to stay as they are between them ...

Our small private adventures always have a witness ...

someone who knows Hatching other ...

be moving path in the shadows ...

It's like spying without being seen.

Hiding and secrecy require an infallible memory ...

but last motivation a secret ...

where often not hiding anything, not likely.

the secret is just our ...

melody, that we love ...

and does astonish the witness of the lives of others.

I could not have ever start write without a secret ...

counting simply this:

It is a covenant, an enchantment,

The invisible thread that reminds ...

the fact that people again return as shadows.

The day on which leave enchantment ...

and finally we want to tell the truth.

That day we ourselves will only a memory or a shadow.
