"Your beauty and my ingenuity
will be your spur.

The two of us will form
the hero of a novel."

- Mr. President, the press is here.
- Thanks.

- Mr. President.
- Hello, how are you?

- All good?
- Good.

Take a seat. Relax. Make yourself at home.

Thanks.

Get comfortable.

I have time, there's no rush.

Mr. President, remember

that you have
the press conference in an hour,

for Tucumán's press issue.

Yes, but that can wait.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

- We can start whenever you want.
- If it's okay with you,

I'd like you to start by making
an assessment of your administration,

mainly during this last year.

Well, you know how the country was
when I took over,

everything was very difficult.

But I think the country is
in much better shape

than it was back then.

Goodbye. Have a nice day.

Sir! Sir!

You. Listen to me.

The president isn't feeling well.
He'll be hospitalized.

He's in a delicate state.

In an hour or so,

he'll be in the operating room.

The doctors say

he has a 50% chance of survival.

- I'm so sorry.
- Really? Listen...

You just interviewed the president,

and it could be his last interview

if he dies in the operating room.

There, you asked him
who his political heir was.

Remember that question?

Yes. I remember. He answered
that, in politics, there are no heirs.

Yes, yes. I know.

We recorded everything.

How much can we pay,

if the president dies,

to change that answer
and give the name of a political heir?

Tell me.

Well, don't freeze on me like that.
Put yourself in our shoes.

That answer is his political will,
if he dies.

I'm speaking in the name
of a group of the president's men.

And I'm authorized to offer you

a seven-figure check
to change that answer.

But, well, God willing,
everything will be fine,

this conversation never happened,

and I'll never bother you again.

But I want you to know

that if that doesn't happen,

I'll call you with a definite offer.

And...

What would that name be?

doublespeak

That's why we want to thank you
for coming to share

the day-to-day of your kids
in our educational community.

The kids can choose,
according to their interests,

among our different activities.

For example, reflection, communication,
silent reading, among others.

If it's in silence,
how do we know they can read?

- Did you go to the club? Got them?
- These are the kids'.

- You said you were going today.
- Yes, but...

Listen, do you have Lewandoski's?

I can't seem to find it.

- We went to 12 places yesterday.
- Did you get the stamps?

I tried, but my car broke down.
And well...

Listen, these stamps are very important
to me, I've looked for them for years.

What happened?

Everything went well,
until he insisted on not selling.

That's why I asked you to go.
He recognized me.

You got in a fight over two-by-two papers?

Actually, they measure less. Jagged edges.

And cooking classes.

Funny how only the girls cook.
Maybe that's the school's proposal too...

Besides, there's no stove...

I've been looking for them for years.

And the guy who has
the only two left in the world,

is a stupid reseller
who won't sell them to me

because he says his old man
had to sell his chain of stores

twenty years ago because of me.
Fucking idiot.

I don't understand.

I can't get my head around the fact
that you care about two shitty stamps.

Well, you'll never understand.

- I don't know.
- Come on.

- No, I won't convince you.
- Wasn't your job to convince people?

Go on. Try me.

...documentaries, shorts, and also...

It's a national hero collection.

When they came out, some had flaws.

They threw them away,
and only two were left.

The only two I'm missing.

It's a twenty-peso San Martín
with a changed center,

and an unperforated
fifteen-cent Rivadavia.

They're unique, original.

There you go again about originality!

You're obsessed with it!

- Otherwise, what's the point of it all?
- What?

All this. What's the point?

We're at a parent-teacher meeting.

I mean being alive, Hugo.
What's the point of being alive?

You know it's important for your kid
to know you're here.

That you're here for him.
That's important.

Told you I wouldn't convince you.
I lost my touch.

And the Frankfurt Fair?

- You're not going?
- No.

It'd be sad to go to the philately mecca
with an incomplete collection.

ADRIANA
Healthcare is on you. Three instalments.

Besides, I'd need it to rain money
to be able to buy tickets,

and that doesn't often happen.

That's fucking bad.

If you have any doubts or questions,
get in touch with me.

Griego, I think the kid's waiting for you.

Don't hesitate to reach out,
communication is important...

I think this topic
should be voted on at an assembly.

- An assembly? What assembly?
- Yes, we never agree on anything.

We're reaching the end of this meeting,
but don't worry...

- What do you want?
- To talk to you.

Who are you?

I have something you want.

How much?

- There's no amount.
- I don't get it.

You're the price.

I don't get it.

We need you, Griego.

You have to come back.

48 HOURS EARLIER

At the locker room, during half-time,
it felt like a wake.

Three nil down against the Dutch
at the Olympic games.

- Unbeatable.
- Sure.

I grabbed Quinteros and told him,
"Man, you have to help me.

"It's an Olympic hockey final.
I want the gold medal."

And we beat them.

It was unbelievable.

Everyone talks about your fourth goal.

But, for me,
the first one was the hardest.

For sure.

- To break the heartache, right?
- Yes.

Tucu was a bulldog. Yes, I remember.

He stole a ball, it was floating,
and I hit it with all that I had.

It's very good to count on good allies.

Right?

I can't imagine the celebration,
being the captain of the team.

Well, we started with the hockey girls.

Then, the volleyball girls came.

So it was another match,
but with extra time.

And penalties.

At sunrise,
the Colombian tennis team came, and...

- Those girls are very generous.
- Very generous.

Yes, yes. And they were very welcome.

Excuse me.

There's an Olympic level here too.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Any news?

The truth is...

I wanted to meet you.

- You'll be great.
- Thanks.

All I ask is that
we leave things as they are.

Tactics and strategy unchanged.

Player number four is untouchable.

Number four? Yes.

Thanks.

See you later.

"The strongest quotes
of the presidential debate"

#PresidentialElections
#CandidatePrat

Can you believe that dirty old man
put a tip in my cleavage?

Here. Honestly,
I could have sent it through Whatsapp.

It's better this way.

At least you don't put the money
in my cleavage.

- Do you want a ride home?
- No.

Don't call me again.

I didn't study Communication
five years for this. I like to write.

It's all connected. You'll see.

Go to hell.

The truth is I wanted to meet you.

- You'll be great.
- Thanks.

All I ask is that
we leave things as they are.

Tactics and strategy unchanged.

Player number four is untouchable.

PRAT AND DOMENECH
CONTROVERSIAL MEETING

Prat says he's the face of new politics,
but he secretly meets

with possibly the most controversial
businessman of recent times.

Now we understand why he was chosen
by the old strongman.

We talk about Prat, an ultra-partisan
who revived the Citizen Liberty Party

on a very questionable mandate.

He was designated by his company

as successor
to the great leader of the party.

And after the debate, he went...
I have it here.

From third place
to first place in the polls.

FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE
RICARDO PRAT, CITIZEN LIBERTY PARTY

I want to start a new feat.
And for that, I need your vote.

He wasn't taken seriously
for his non-political past.

Other candidates
refrained from attacking a popular idol

with an Olympic medal
that we all celebrated.

- Look, in the past...
- May I finish, please?

I believe in a present state,
that will take care...

I know nothing about politics. Okay.

But this guy, Ricardo Prat, what a mess!

Everyone's talking about the video, yes.
But we know him.

He's always on the news
for having affairs with everyone.

Are you sure of what you're saying?

He fucked everyone!

Unfortunately, our public servants...

How was I not going to find out?
We'll make something up.

Yes, I know. I'll call you later.

- Who's she? I don't know her.
- Everyone broadcasted it.

How often have I told you
to never do it in person?

It was an informal invitation.
The guy loves me, no weird intentions.

There always are.

He took precautions, the place was closed.
It's nonsense, Miguel.

Nonsense that'll lose us
the political capital from the debate.

I need to think.

Don't take any calls from anyone
until I tell you to.

They're laughing at us.

A presidential candidate
objectifying women.

Is that what we want?

A group of intellectuals
from ancient Greece

used dialectics to greatly influence
the society of the time.

The art of persuasion
wasn't in service of the truth,

but in the interests of the speaker.

Wise man on demand, here's Protagoras,
considered the first Greek sophist.

The quote that represents him is,
"Man is the measure of all things."

Great quote, right?

Well, we'll continue slowly.
Moving forward...

Watch out for the stones.

Are you having fun?

- Miguel?
- You have to find a guy.

They call him El Griego.

Griego + POLITICS

- Yes, he's a political advisor.
- No.

There are many of those.
This one was a magician.

He would make up strategies
to defend anything.

Look, guys that had sketchy pasts
became presidents, all thanks to him.

I can't find much.

He has no social media.
I can't even find a clear picture of him.

- Are you sure he's alive?
- He didn't like the spotlight.

He worked with some heavyweights,
he must be on an island eating lobster.

But there's a vice I bet he didn't lose.

BUENOS AIRES CIRCLE OF PHILATELY

...as current
as Shakespeare for literature lovers.

I don't get it.

We need you, Griego.

You have to come back.

I'm no longer doing that work. Go away.

- Let me tell you who...
- Listen!

You still have time

to get away from all this shit.

- The money...
- Leave, or I'll beat the shit out of you.

Fine. As you wish.

Sell them to me.

- What?
- Sell them to me.

The only way you'll get them
is through meeting Miguel Prat.

With whom?

We'll be waiting.

You have to convince this chick
that my cousin deserves to be president.

She's attacking him because of
what happened with that waitress.

She's obsessed with destroying him.

We're down ten points.

And it's getting worse.
The old man's legacy isn't enough anymore.

Kravitz caught up to him.

And we needed that edge,

because he'll attack him directly
in the second debate,

and he'll destroy him.

I no longer solve those problems.

You'll get an envelope
like this one every week.

And we'll pay for all expenses, obviously.

Don't be stupid.

You know it'll be good for you.
You haven't worked in a while.

I no longer do this.

I already told the kid.

And I should've told you the same
many years ago, that night at the faculty.

And, when you finish your job,

this other envelope.

And you'll get a newer cell phone.

And the other one?

The other one's the prize
for winning the elections.

A month and a half.

That's how long I need you.

Prat says he's the face of new politics,
but he secretly meets

with possibly the most controversial
businessman of recent times.

Now we understand why he was chosen
by the old strongman.

It's a new way of doing politics
that unfortunately...

Camila Hewel.

Yes. Do you know her?

...to maintain...

She was my student.

...but the real center of power
remains the same.

This is for wasting my time.
Forget about me.

SEPTEMBER - OCTOBER
FRANKFURT

Can you read me The Charlatan Fox?

No. Not now.

Come on, Dad.

- You read it.
- I can't read.

Yes, you can.

"Once

"upon a time...

"Once..."

I'm hungry.

Me too.

- Shall we order burgers?
- Yes.

It's mom.

She says, "They stopped our welfare."

Tell her I'll talk to her later.

RICARDO PRAT
FOR A SERIOUS COUNTRY

My lucky charm.

I had it with me in all my campaigns.

And I won them all.

- Ricardo.
- El Griego.

The state is a little more complex
than a hockey game.

Miguel,

get this clown out of here.

No. We need him.

We have a team of young people
full of ideas.

This is not a choice.

Tell us, what are we paying you for?

So, you're Saint Griego?

They say you perform miracles.

You're a believer.

Let's go to church.

LARDÍN SUPERMARKET

Hi, how are you?

How are you doing?

Explain what we're doing here.

Relax, Ricardo, relax.

Hello, ma'am, how are you?

Vote for us!

Listen.

I know they talk about you at Harvard,

but I don't know
if I agree with all of it.

You know what they say
about you at Harvard?

What?

Nothing.

Please, move away from the candidate.

Go, go. Let's go.

Look, the old man's legacy
was enough until now...

- Hello.
- How are you?

And that Olympic medal celebration.

Epic, really.

- But that's over now.
- Hello.

It's old news.

Now, we need people
to choose you to govern,

so look up, and choose.

See? It never fails.

Warm colors attract, while cool colors
encourage contemplation.

That's why warm colors are
by the entrance,

and cool colors inside the store.

- Afternoon.
- How are you?

Diet products are near the door,
so that you put them in your cart

and go to less healthy sections
with a clear conscience.

Help the pregnant lady.

Wait. Please, I'll help you.
Please, allow me.

Let's take care of that baby.

FOOD FOR PETS

The milk is rarely near the bread.

They want you to go all around the market
to get your basic purchases.

Did you notice the aisles
are always narrow,

even in bigger supermarkets?

It's so that you walk by the product
you probably don't need.

Treats, gum, chocolates, magazines,

close to the checkout.

It's your reward for finishing your task.

Say hello to the cashier.

Good afternoon.

Add the bottle of whiskey
on your left and pay.

Thank you.

How the fuck is this useful?

My fridge is empty.

You'll understand.

No, listen to me...

How is this useful, Miguel?
What's the use of this?

Hello. Smile. Hello.

Griego! I see what your strategy is.

Just so you know, we're working on
a social media and big data analysis.

And microtargeting
messages to each demographic

to neutralize the implications
a little bit. You know?

Do you know
how much this packet of sugar is?

No.

Exactly.

...and we're here,
because there's a viral video

about one of the candidates...

Ricardo Prat.

Stop. Thanks.

Braian.

...we can see the candidate
among the people.

I'll call a cab.

They say celebrities
don't mix with common people.

Is he choosing items on sale?

Yes, we can see him here.

Prat, look at him,
he's helping a pregnant lady.

Is Ricardo Prat a caring man?

Is it true they tried to make him look bad
with that hidden camera?

Is this the real him?

Maybe we should trust
more in our candidates.

Dad?

Dad.

- Dad!
- What?

Can you read The Charlatan Fox?

No, read it yourself.

I can't read.

- Yes, you can.
- No, I can't. Come on, Dad. Read to me.

- Read to me!
- I'm driving!

"Once upon a time,
there was a woman who owned a farm."

"All her animals
lived comfortably protected."

"Only the hen, who was a rebel,

"spent the day outdoors pecking

"at everything she found along the way."

"One day, the good woman
went to town for some shopping,

"and when she returned, she realized

"that she was missing
a little cinnamon-colored hen."

"She looked around, and saw that a fox..."

Go ahead! Come on!

For this month and the next.

You surprised me.

You never took the sticker out.

- It's old. I forgot.
- You forgot about your university too.

What is it about?

A fox that steals a hen.

Interesting.

Is there a moral?

I never get to the end.
Nicolás always falls asleep.

Because he's Machiavellian?

- The pregnant lady thing was so obvious.
- It worked.

- That's not the point.
- Depends for whom.

I thought you disappeared.

That was a great report.
Smart way to get a testimony out of him.

You're no longer my teacher.

But it violates
the ethical rules of journalism.

You're one to talk about ethics.

The same guys you sent us to fight
are in power thanks to you.

We were so stupid.
Should have seen it coming.

But Prat won't be easy.

You'll have to do some magic.

A hockey team isn't the same
as managing the state.

And he's never had such a tough opponent.

I offer the right to respond.

A face-to-face interview.

That's not his style. I don't think
they'll let you interview him.

If he really is different,
let him prove it on the field.

You owe me.

Griego!

Listen, why don't we make
a good TV campaign?

I have a publicist
that'll make you cry in 20 seconds.

Because a live interview...

That'll be our death.

If we don't risk it,
we'll never turn this around.

Don't worry, it's what I'm here for.

But to do my job properly,

I need to know everything.

In 2014, what happened
to the girls who accused you?

Wait, why is that relevant?

They accused him on Twitter,
and then never again. That's strange.

It must have cost you two apartments.

I'm not the only one who finds things out.

Camila Hewel will ask him this,
and I need to know the details.

Look, what I tried to do there...

Three secretaries.

Three secretaries.

You made us win a lot. Kravitz was happy.

This isn't a birthday party.

You told me
you had information about Prat.

We'll be live in 30 minutes,
I need it to be solid.

Do you know
about the mega-mining project in Peñaloza?

Three secretaries.

Three secretaries?

You know better than anyone
that to reach a powerful public servant,

you have to go through three filters.

His three secretaries.

First, Norma, 55, dry as a raisin.

She's the one who knows. She studies you.
If you're not worth it, you're out.

Then comes Florencia. Fresh, nice.

She's got drive. Friendly, but distant.

If everything goes well,
Celeste will be waiting for you.

She's 23, doesn't understand anything.

But she's hotter than hell.

Well, Ricardo had
two Celestes in his foundation.

- Where did you get that?
- It doesn't matter.

But trust me, this is gold.

My boss doesn't know anything yet.

So I have two options.

I can give it to the party
and get a better place on the list...

Or I don't publish how much you spent
on those advisor friends you made.

You put your whole soccer team on it.

You'll get it before the show starts.

I'm ready.

Seducere!

What are you saying, Griego?

This woman wants to see blood.

We can skip that interview
by making an excuse.

Se

du

ce

re.

What do you mean, Griego?

It's the Latin origin
of the word "seduce".

Do you know what it means?

To guide. To take someone aside,
away from the path they were on,

and, of course, lead them to ours.

That's what we're going to do.

Do you agree?

Yes.

- Let's go.
- Let's go.

We're good for today,
I'll send you the documents.

Remind me of those meetings.

- Okay?
- Sure.

So?

You're never at a fancy bar or hotel.
You want a cortado?

Reserve those places
when you have privileges.

You'll need them
if you support unprincipled people.

Prat is my boss.

The guy has won almost everything,
he's the new politics.

He doesn't need to steal
like your boss, Kravitz.

You bought the narrative.

It'll be hard when you crash and burn.

Your bosses only think about one thing,
their businesses.

This thing was a setup, Galvan.
People aren't stupid.

Allow me to doubt that.

- Thanks.
- Let's not waste more time.

We're here for something else.

Listen, we never met, okay?

Relax, Cándido.

Prat had nothing to do with Peñaloza.

They made you believe that?

Ricardo Prat speaks live
for the first time

in an uncompromising talk.

What do you want?

In just a few minutes,
on N 42, your news channel.

Don't watch it. It'll be a massacre.

Thanks.

I'll keep it. I'll keep it here. Thanks.

No hard feelings?

PLAYER NUMBER FOUR

Good day.

I brought candy, truffles. Pablo?

Miriam? No?

Are you on a diet?

Mauri? Okay.

UNITED PROGRESSIVE FRONT

Well, you can share it here.

Oh, my God.

Good morning, Mr. Prat.

Get ready for the show, people.

Good morning, Camila.

Let's cut to the chase,
let's hear what the people want to know.

You present yourself as fresh air
compared to the old politics.

However, in view
of the facts that came to light,

do you think you have
the moral authority to represent us?

Camila, before we begin,
I have two reasons to thank you.

First, for inviting me
to have a conversation.

I'm not usually an interview guy,
I'm an action guy.

And second,
for helping me be a better person

and a better public servant.

He'll use the wife card.

As you and everyone knows,
I suffered a tremendous loss.

However, I'm still learning every day.

We were all educated in one society,
and we're living in another.

I'm an adult, but I have to learn
every day, as if I were a child.

What? They're not giving you
a place in the party?

If what you know is so serious,
you'd use it.

Or do you have bigger fish to fry?

Because as Simone de Beauvoir said,

"What is an adult?

"A child inflated by age."

It's very convenient
that you quote Simone de Beauvoir.

A few years ago, two women
who worked for you in your foundation

accused you of harassment on social media.

Shit.

- Shit.
- Excuse me?

"Shit" was what I thought
when I read the tweet.

I won't deny it.

...when I saw that tweet, I won't lie.

How much resentment
are humans capable of, Camila?

- This is surely what happened...
- Make coffee.

...to two excellent people who, sadly,

were no longer needed in the foundation.

I understand. I don't condemn them.

I don't condemn them.

I bury them?

I understand. I don't condemn them!

- No.
- I understand them!

I understand them.

Because, you know what, Camila?

You don't have to be against men
to be in favor of women.

As Gloria Steinem said,

- "Feminism isn't dividing up..."
- "Feminism

"isn't dividing up the cake
between the sexes,

"it's making a new one."

And that is my commitment.

Can you explain to the country
why you met with Jorge Domenech alone?

Good, Camila!

I met with Domenech
as I do with every Argentinean,

as I'm doing with you now.

Or because in the first debate
no one attacked you.

Or they didn't attack me because
they had nothing against me.

We'll see about that.

Let's take a break. We'll be back.

He's not doing that bad.

You know what?

You've got nothing, Galvan.

Take your fake news somewhere else.

The answer is no.

I have the evidence of bribes
in the Legislature of Catamarca...

Okay, get ready, we're back in...

Four, three, two...

We've received exclusive information
on the existence of audio files

which prove there has been bribery
in the provincial legislature

that approved the mining project
in the town of Peñaloza.

Opposition legislators claim
environmental impact reports were hidden

which would confirm
that the population is at serious risk.

Is it true that the main shareholder
of the Xilomeg Corporation,

and the owner of this undertaking,
is Jorge Domenech?

Did Domenech ask you

not to change a key player
in your new cabinet?

"Player number four is untouchable."

He refers to the way

in which ministers
are appointed in the government.

Number four is the Minister of Production.

Thanks to whom this company did
very shady business

in the last nine years in our country.

It is very suspicious
that they just changed their vote

and that these lands
are approved for mining.

We can suspect a fraudulent maneuver.

Answer, Prat,

did the meeting with Domenech
have that purpose?

The project exists
and it was put to a vote

It was intended to be approved.

No one told me of any inconsistencies.

Answer, Prat.

Of course.

First, we need to check that information.

We live in times
in which nothing is what it seems.

And secondly,

I have nothing to do
with that project or that company.

You met with the owner of the company.

He requested
"tactics and strategy unchanged."

To not touch player number four.

What's not to touch?

Answer that simple question.

I was player number four.

Captain and goal scorer
of the winning Olympic team.

As a sport fanatic,
he was asking me to not lose my resolve

as the national team captain.

As I told you, it was a nice chat
with a fan. Nothing else.

Miguel Prat,

your campaign manager,
has history with Domenech.

I know they've known each other long,
but I'm not aware that...

- ...they're still in touch.
- Miguel Prat started

in Domenech's companies.
Prat, who has the same last name as you.

Camila Hewel, right?

- Yes.
- Do you know who

Walther Hewel was?

No.

Walther Hewel was a German diplomat

during the interwar period
and the Second World War.

He was a founder of the
National Socialist German Workers' Party.

That is to say,

one of the most important Nazi hierarchs,
who murdered around eleven million people.

Would you say, Camila,
that you're responsible for his actions?

No.

In any case,

Miguel Prat will no longer be
part of my campaign.

Miguel Prat will no longer be
part of my campaign.

At least until this issue clears up.

That's how I handle things,
and always will.

With transparency.

We've reached the end of this interview.
We have to say goodbye.

- Thank you, Mr. Prat.
- Thank you, Camila.

Okay, guys, we're done.

We're done. Thanks.

Thanks.

What happened?

What did we do?

It was a critical situation.
We had to sacrifice someone.

And that's what I'm here for.

As I've always been.

I didn't care for you comparing me
to a Nazi leader,

but I must admit...

You're the best!

Peñaloza will come back to bite us,
and not in a good way.

Social media disagrees.

People are talking about the way Hewel
was looking at Ricardo.

That woman will be
the symbol of our campaign.

Seducere!

If we can seduce her,
we'll seduce the country.

So, Peñaloza?

Bring me all you've got.

You'll be third on the list.

From the mayor's office,

we notice that Argentina is moving forward

with genuine national work.

Making improvements with sidewalks.

Making improvements with sewers.

Make it look like you're writing.
Look busy.

It will mean more work for the area,

and therefore, more work for our people.

In an Argentina where the area...

What a bore... Such a monotone.

Where thousands of men and women...

What a bore.
He's like a priest during mass.

Because it is a sector
of high labor intensity.

Even the most obsequious take naps.

The capacity to produce
practically everything...

Anything to hear your answers.

Got any that aren't written for you?

They left me alone today.

But you know them by heart.

Let's skip this pantomime.

Because, besides, my friends...

Well, I'm about to tweet
what you just told me.

That'd be fun.

At least something would happen
in this cemetery.

...the capital of our main partner.

A Brazilian company that trusts...

You'd be in trouble, Prat.

And we are clear that this way...

Beer.

I hear the word "clear" and think of beer.

Wouldn't you drink a cold one?

What's clear is that I like beer.

Don't blackmail me, Prat.

I know you're just a person
trying to adapt to this circus. Like me.

How do you know?
You know nothing about me.

I know you find Monroig's tie ridiculous,
like something from a duty-free shop sale.

You hate his superior tone,
typical of someone who got a little power

after being nobody all his life.

Mainly, it disgusts you
that he'll never do what he's announcing.

Look to your right.

The face of the Energy secretary
sucking up to Monroig.

And my vice, who became a father
two days ago and can't take it anymore.

People who think they are successful.

Its false resemblance to merit
deceives many.

We are going to win this match,

with the help of our great captain.

Right, Ricardo?

- Smile, he's mentioning you.
- Right, Ricardo?

Yes, sure. Of course we will.

Because with Ricardo Prat,

we have sacrifice, we have confidence...

Camila, would you like
to have dinner with me?

Bad news. Sosa Durán backed down
and is now supporting Kravitz.

They fought in the debate,
now they're friends.

She was offered the chancellorship.
You got off lightly.

Do me a favor, you answer Camila Hewel.

You're better than me.

Tomorrow, there's a new political event
with Monroig.

I saved you the first row.

You should fire your advisors.
In public, you're more rigid.

Yes, yes. Neck and back.

Peñaloza has a water shortage.

You can't use cyanide and mercury
in the extraction of the mine.

Peñaloza's anger grows,

while legislators remain silent.

Days away from the second debate,
Prat's campaign has a pebble in its shoe

- that will be difficult to remove.
- Here, Ema.

Feed the Chinese trolls.

To travel more.

I'd like that.

- Porvoo.
- What?

Porvoo is a Finnish town frozen in time.

Sounds lonely.

- Hi.
- Hi.

PRO FRONT LIST/DISTRICT BS AS
CANDIDATES - Kravitz - SosaDuran

Leftist Kravitz
bought a luxury car

Galvan! Galvan!

Initiate phase two.

Do I have to sign anything?

Your first time here, right?

Don't worry,
you just have to go across the square.

I like being alone.
I decided not to have a family.

Loneliness is beautiful
when you have someone to share it with.

What if we talk in person?

I'm at a meeting for the tourism platform.

At this time?

I told you I'd like to travel.

Flores.

- Sorry, I thought Miguel was here.
- No, he hasn't arrived yet.

But come on in and wait for him.

Now you want to scram?

Don't worry.

To win an election,
you need a hundred million dollars,

ninety of which are never declared.

The son of a bitch traveled,
and it's fucking us up.

We say no to the mega-mines of businessmen
like Jorge Domenech and his lacky, Prat.

BREAKING - TENSION IN PEÑALOZA

From Peñaloza, the highest representatives
of our party have drafted a complaint.

And what can you tell us
about the imported luxury car

that you allegedly bought illegally?

No, that's a big lie.

I only went to the inauguration
of an automobile factory.

Can we talk about the problems
in our country?

You're an owl, just like me.

In the afternoon, beer, yes.

But in the evening,
I only think about ice cream. Don't you?

Dulce de leche, almond,
black forest, and Las Pelotas.

That's not being alone.

I thought you were different.

I'm...

El Griego.

I'm El Griego.

Me too.

Even if you can't see it,
it comes from the same bags.

"Help, help! A thieving fox
is taking my hen!

"The fox tried to find a hole to escape.

"People started shouting,
'Release the hen, bully fox!

"Shame on you
for stealing what isn't yours.'

"The fox heard them,
but paid no attention.

"He could only think about getting away
with his prey before he was caught."

I'm only clear about this.

Shall we share them?

INCOMING VIDEO CALL

- Hello.
- Griego, you're a genius!

But it's time I went on the pitch.

- What do you mean?
- I'm tired of texting.

I'm tired of repeating what you say.

I want to be with her in person.
She wants to be with me.

I want to be myself.

Are you insane? You'll ruin everything.

You'll end up worse than how you started.

Thank you very much, really.

But I'm getting my account back.

I want to see you. At my country house.

FRANKFURT PHILATELIC EXHIBITION
APPLICATION FORM

How did you get my address?

I do investigative journalism.

If I can't solve this, I should quit.

May I come in?

Tell me something about Prat.
Off the record.

I thought we were even.

I can help you better your campaign.
It isn't doing well.

You helped a lot.

You saved the books
from your previous life.

Don't you miss it?

Too bad you turned into this.

Give me something.

Tell me what the link is
between Prat and Peñaloza.

He seems so tailored to the party,

but he also seems different.

I have no problem going all in.

But I want to be fair.

We have a paradox.

Whether I speak for or against him,
you won't believe me.

We are facing a dramatic problem of trust.

You're right.

Bad idea.

In class, I was always struck
by your lateral thinking.

Exactly.

We're not in class anymore.

The Peñaloza scandal has become

the eye of the storm in the campaign.

EDITORIAL
WHO CARES ABOUT PEÑALOZA?

However, we must ask ourselves,

are we not all victims
of a dirty campaign?

Of the manipulation of reality?

Does anyone really care
about the future of the villagers?

Or are the people
being used as campaign hostages?

Cami, they're calling from upstairs.

You're worth every cent.

Let's talk about the stamp I'm missing.

I've got it in a safe place, don't worry.

I got this report.

It's an analysis
of the Kravitz campaign ads.

He's grown exponentially

since the news on Domenech
and Peñaloza broke out.

His campaign doubled
its digital and physical presence.

Looks like someone's betting
on the winner.

What do you need?

Are you defending Prat?

That's not what I did.
I gave another point of view.

You can trash him
the rest of your 23 hours of programming.

I know what's going on.

You went to all of Prat's events,

you're meeting his advisors...

- Are you jealous?
- Please.

They're manipulating you, kid.

Wait.

Come, walk with me.

What happened?

We got this today.

It's from a hotel in Fuente Agua,
the closest town to Peñaloza.

Right during quarantine.

He stayed for two days,
just before the voting began.

The dates from the security cameras
match the hotel records.

It is all confirmed.

We already sent it to Prat's campaign.

This time, they're screwed.

It was something so important

that Miguel Prat had to go in person.

It's not jealousy, Camila.

You became another one of their puppets.

I believed you
when you said nothing was illegal.

What, you're going to put on
a morality play now?

I went because it was urgent.

In exchange,
Domenech would fund our campaign.

That was always your problem.

You never differentiated manipulation,
which is what I do, from lies.

They look the same, but they're not.

He'll withdraw his support now.

You set up the meeting with your cousin?

No way,
he went because he's Ricardo's fan.

The old man's untouchable.

If they find something about him,

by the time they bring a lawsuit
and go to trial,

he'll be six feet under.

Or under house arrest in a country home.

But not me.

If we lose power,

I'll go to prison.

The party...

demanded that Ricardo withdraw.

They promise protection in exchange.

You never know.

It's over.

What are you doing?

What are you saying?

I've never lost an election,
and it won't happen on my last campaign.

Griego, it's impossible.

They have enough material
for a documentary.

"On attaque, et on verra."

What?

Attack,

and then, we'll see.

Napoleon.

You have to show yourself
to be as strong as ever,

and they'll fear you.

But from the shadows.

You'll never appear in public again.

I don't think Ricardo
wants to keep exposing himself.

Let me handle him.

This is the end for Prat.

Probably for the party too.

They're desperate.

But we lack evidence against
the candidate, and until we have it,

we'll keep our ace up our sleeve.

I'll get it.

Oh, fuck.

AGAINST THE ABUSE OF POWER!

You can't withdraw now,
you'll be implicated.

Who'll believe
you had nothing to do with it?

You have to go to Peñaloza today.
Today, the battle starts.

No, you're not listening to me. It's over.

My cousin will justify it somehow,
and I...

I want something better for myself.

This is how you'll go down in history?

Is that what you want?
To throw your honor overboard?

To go from being a hero to a bribe-taker?

It's the decent thing to do.

"Decent" is a word that
will never be associated with you.

People remember
the last thing that happened.

Did you get into this to be forgotten?

What should I do, Griego?

They'll kill me either way.
We still have the debate.

You can win.

- You can win.
- We can't make up the difference.

We can if you make
an accurate and brave move.

You go to Peñaloza
and face the consequences.

People criticize candidates that don't.

But when they have a brave candidate,

all they want to do
is take a selfie with them.

People need to love a leader.

And they love you. That's your capital.

They love you.

You, Ricardo Prat,
are meant for bigger things

than attacking and defending.

You're meant
to tell the people of Peñaloza

about a dream.

The dream of their future.

The dream of their coming years.

The dream of their happiness.

I'll put up the words.

But you have to put your heart in it.

Everything will be fine.

Tomorrow is going to be a great day,
believe me.

It's Camila.

I need to know the truth.

Wait, come in.

Did you know?

Your cousin is up to his ass
with Peñaloza.

Did you know or not?

I have no problem fucking you up,
but I need to know the truth.

Tomorrow, that video will be like a mantra
repeating everywhere.

I'm so glad you came.

I'm freezing.

Yes.

Take a hot shower
and then we'll talk properly.

I'll shower and leave.

Rain's stopping, anyway.

What are you doing?

Where are you going?

You have to help me, Griego!

This isn't working.

You told me you wanted to do it yourself.

Do I have to go to Peñaloza tomorrow?
Yes or no?

Yes.

If Camila is against me, we won't do well.

Camila...

- Can you hear me?
- Yes.

I wanted to tell you
that I wish I'd known about my cousin.

But he does as he pleases.

I'm just a puppet who says the right words
and has a perfect smile.

Come in, so I can hear you.

Tell me something.

I'm good at telling stories.

Really?

You played hockey.

At training camps, to ease the nerves
of upcoming games,

I'd tell stories to the boys

in the darkness of the room.

Why are you lowering your voice?

Maybe because the bathroom

also reminds me

of when I was a kid.

It's a place of secrets.

And talking without making eye contact.

It's like an act of confession in church,

which is also in a lower voice.

And I have so much to confess, Camila.,.

For example?

Nothing turned out as I'd planned.

Nothing.

That I was always
a puppet managed by others.

But that's going to change,
starting tomorrow.

I'm going to be someone else, I promise.

Camila.

You can change in the guest room.

- It fits!
- Yeah.

What you said was really nice.

Yes?

Yes.

Tomorrow will be a tough day.
I'd better leave.

I'll call a cab.

Do you know
why I see a future in this town,

when no one else does?

Let me tell you a story.

Many years ago,

I met a boy who had to drop out of school

NO TO MINING

to help his father
because his mother had become ill.

Dropping out of school
didn't make him sad,

because he was bullied there
for his extreme skinniness.

They called him "asparagus."

- No to mines!
- Leave, thief!

And that cruel nickname

would have been nothing,
if it weren't for the beatings

he was given after school during
those five years he attended classes.

So, Asparagus

stopped going to school.

And he joined his father
every day in the garbage truck.

How'd you do it?

- One day, his father had an accident...
- He cried in my arms last night.

And Asparagus had to replace him

in order to pay for
the costs of the operations.

Time passed,

and this boy became a young man.

He met the woman of his dreams.

Did you write it on your flight?

Don't miss the end, it's epic.

As skinny as he was,

he dared to talk to her one day,

and they married many years later.

Create expectation,

convey passion and enthusiasm,

provide reasons,

include a personal anecdote.

Thought you weren't listening in class.

I offer for you to join me

in this new dream of prosperity,

investment and work,

so that we can reach
a new podium together.

So that we can win
a new gold medal together!

I do see a future for this town,
but we must be daring!

I ask for sacrifice and trust,

because here, Peñaloza,
here, there is a team!

POLLUTED WATER IS DEATH

NO TO MINING

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

AGAINST THE ABUSE OF POWER!

I didn't know it had gotten so far.

This is a disaster.

Are you hungry?

A bull.

No, a faun.

A faun?
It's missing its arms and the lyre.

Fire is a turning point

in culture.

Animals can't light fire.

No, because they're cooked with fire.

But civilization begins
with the passage from raw to...

...cooked.

We wouldn't be what we are

if it were not for fire.

Cool story.
It was central to many genocides.

- The phoenix.
- Yes.

I hate that myth.

But it gets good press.

That thing, about it rising
from the ashes...

That stupid story generated
that bane on the human race

called "hope."

In the name of hope,
they fuck our lives up.

And politics does the same.

No, comrade!

The only professor
who understands our struggle

and assured us that he'll vote
in favor of the free university

is Juan Sémata, "El Griego."

Let's vote, comrades!

- I'll vote!
- We have to give him our votes.

Griego! Griego!

Why did you betray us?

Why did you vote against the faculty?

Domenech congratulates you.

Forty-seven percent of people

changed their view on mega-mining.

- He wants to meet you.
- Never.

Dealing with him is your job, not mine.

- Come on, man, just...
- How did it go with the party?

Well, look, for now,

they'll keep him as candidate,

but next week's the final debate.

Kravitz has been debating since childhood.
He'll crush him.

He's hungry.

Look, he ate up his own,

his enemies.

He wants that presidency.

That's how he is.
He'll kill him like a doll.

Losing this debate
isn't an option, believe me.

Then, it's time to teach the puppet

to speak on his own.

WORK
SUPPORT THE SMES

Work, SMEs, go.

Well, SMEs are fundamental
for the average man...

Too long. Brief answers. Conclusive ones.

This is like a car race.

People only remember the crashes.

Yes, yes.

This one, of course.

- He has good body language.
- Exactly.

Exemplification.

Causes and consequences
of the occupied territories in the south.

Now!

You can't say "Uh." That's not an answer.

Daniel, what have you transformed into?

What have they made you into?

Analogy.

Where there's two, there's three.

That's not even a saying.

- Are you getting any of this, Ricardo?
- Yes, yes.

- I'm answering with...
- You're not answering anything!

You're dodging the question!

Saadi talks to his enemy.

You have to talk to the people.

You have to turn
a weak argument into a strong one.

And you have to weaken a strong argument.

For some reason, he seems to be lying.

I'm Jorge Domenech. Let's have dinner.

Very good.

- Really. Ema!
- Yes.

Can you tell me this?

- Yes.
- What is it?

Well, this is the first proposal
for what you asked.

Basically, it's the website,
we'll put the political platform there.

- Old videos, Prat's goals.
- Good, that's good.

- Okay?
- That's good.

This is good.

We're doing good!

THE REBEL
ALBERT CAMUS

There are two truths,
one of which shouldn't be said.

To Camila
From El Griego

THE DEBATE

Shall we smoke outside?

- I don't smoke.
- Me neither.

Cándido. Sit.

Nico.

Nicolás, look at me.

If anything happens to your dad,

you'll have
all the answers in here. Seneca.

Will you remember that?

I like The Charlatan Fox better.
Can you read it to me?

- Where did we leave off?
- The immobilized little hen.

"The little hen, immobilized
because the fangs were biting her,

"also heard them and decided

"she had to come up with
something clever or it was over.

"She was in a tricky situation,
but she managed to whisper a few words,

"'Did you see, fox?
All those people are very angry with you,

"'so you'd better convince them
that I'm not one of the hens on the farm,

"'and maybe they'll let you go.'"
You keep reading.

"The fox

"had to

"open

"his mouth

"to speak,

"and

"accidentally

"let go of the hen."

"The poor thing fell to the ground,

"very dizzy,

"but taking advantage
of the blah, blah, blah

"of her kidnapper,

"she ran away."

"When the fox

"realized

"his big mistake..."

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

Good evening, Argentina.

Welcome to the presidential debate.

Good evening. Welcome.

It's a privilege for us to be here,
on this historic night,

moderating the debate
between the leading candidates

in next Sunday's elections.

The dynamics of the debate
have been agreed upon

by the campaign teams
of the main candidates.

The legendary Griego, in the flesh.

What an honor.

Come. Come in.

...where the candidates will have
two minutes

to develop their proposal,
after which they will have 30 seconds

to expand on concepts,
and another 30 seconds...

Please.

Finally, the time has come.

We welcome the three candidates...

- It's starting!
- ...who'll compete

for the presidency of the nation
next Sunday.

Thanks.

The Citizen Liberty Party candidate,
Mr. Ricardo Prat.

The Acropolis.

The United Progressive Front candidate...

You would have paid
to see the debates there, right?

And the Popular Ecologist Party candidate,
Mr. Orlando...

You did everything you could
to make Miguel a candidate.

It wasn't your fault.

He always lacked charisma.

Welcome. Let's start.

But he...
He was meant for another position.

It's like hockey.

People look at the forwards, but the one
who makes the team play is number five.

I heard you trained
our goal scorer very well.

Time's up. It's time for Mr. Prat.

Your time's up, Mr. Chirino.

It's your time, Mr. Prat.

What a circus.

Yes, and I'm the ringmaster.

Or did you think you were
the only strategist here?

...where they respond to another candidate

or add what they consider appropriate.

We begin the round with Mr. Kravitz.

Thank you.

Ricardo Prat talks about honesty,

and doesn't want to admit
that he and his cousin, Miguel Prat,

his campaign manager,

the same one we saw carrying bags
full of money for the legislators,

they're both partners of Jorge Domenech.

Ricardo, what happened to you?

You used to be my idol.

Now you play for the other team?

The corrupt team?

- Son of a bitch!
- No!

I... I want to clarify

that there is not
a single piece of evidence

linking me to Domenech.

Nor that he is related
to the Xilomeg company.

Anything else for your dirty campaign?

- Well...
- Yes.

We play on opposing teams,

The liars against the honest ones.

Griego, where are you?

He's doing so well!

So, Xilomeg,

the business providing dirty money,

- is yours.
- Of course.

But I won't put it in my name, dear.

And Trellez, my partner,
isn't an idiot either.

He owns a news channel.

He had to set up a shell company

to finance Kravitz.

But I do have proof

that you were lying
to the whole of society.

Come on, Prat, nobody believes you.

Go back to sports, you were good at it.

Kravitz, Sociology PhD,

has been lecturing us for some months now,

from a supposed intellectual
and moral vantage point.

- Well...
- However,

we received documents
from the University of Buenos Aires

that show that Kravitz

never, I repeat,
never graduated as a sociologist.

- No.
- Much less as a PhD.

No, that is defamation, Prat.

- Unbelievable.
- There you go!

- Here's the evidence.
- No, that's a lie!

Besides, where in the constitution
does it say that...

It is a serious ethical lapse that shows

how much we can trust this man's word.

- He's lying to the people.
- You're lying to our society.

- You're a liar, Prat.
- Please, candidates. Please.

- Please, candidates.
- One at a time.

We'll take a break.

- What the fuck, Prat?
- Want to read?

Are you kidding? Give me that.

This debate is just a pantomime.

That deal is going through,
no matter what.

- So whoever wins, you win.
- All...

thanks to you.

Yes, very well.

Okay. Listen,
now you have the long break, okay?

You should go to the bathroom.
Five minutes.

- Grab this. Are we doing well?
- Yes.

You did a great job exposing that guy.

None of what Prat says is true.

The truth doesn't exist, Griego.

Only interpretations of it.

If truth were self-evident,

eloquence wouldn't be necessary.

That's where you come in.

When all of this comes to light,

there will be a scandal.

The scandalous thing about scandals
is that people get used to them.

Simone de Beauvoir said that too.

I almost forgot.

I have something for you.

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
we are coming to the end.

Candidates, make the most of it.

Now everyone has one last minute
to give their conclusions.

The first minute goes to
the People's Ecologist Party candidate,

Orlando Chirino.

We have witnessed

a debate,

ladies and gentlemen,

where international capitalism

shows

how it produces and reproduces

its representatives.

A neo-progressivism

that is functional

to the detriment of whom?

The working class.

You have to listen
to the voice of the Ecologist Party.

Time's up.

It's candidate Fernán Kravitz's turn.

Thank you.

Have no doubt
that between now and the elections

we will prove that
Prat's accusations are unfounded.

The truth will come to light.

Therefore, for the Popular Front,

the only way out is change.

That's all. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Kravitz.

It is Mr. Prat's time.

Dear Argentines,

as you were able to see in this debate,

we are faced with two options.

An alternative of empty speeches
and lack of values,

and another one in which
there are tactics,

a strategy and a game plan
studied by a team of professionals.

Thank you...

Thanks.

Griego.

Thanks for the light.

You keep it.

Finally, I want to share our website,

where you will be able
to see all my proposals.

At ricardopratpresident.net

you will be able to see
some of our ideas for the future.

And also, some of my best goals.

It's not "dot net," it's "dot com."

Thanks.

Okay, this is the end, then.

Thank you for joining us.

Good night, Argentina.

THE CHARLATAN FOX CORRUPTION

This debate is just a pantomime.

That deal is going through,
no matter what.

And I'll be one to do it.

So, Xilomeg, the business
providing dirty money, is yours.

Of course.
But I won't put it in my name, dear.

And Trellez, my partner,
isn't an idiot either.

He had to set up a shell company
to finance Kravitz.

Xilomeg.

So whoever wins, you win.

What a circus.

Yes, and I'm the ringmaster.

Or did you think you were
the only strategist here?

What's up? You scared me!

How about you all go to your mom's house?

Why? What are you talking about? When?

Right now!

- Ricardo, wait!
- Prat, don't leave!

- What do you have to say?
- Ricardo!

Have you been hacked?

Prat, anything to declare?

Anything to say?
Is there still a team after all this?

Are you still a candidate?
Prat, don't leave!

When did you decide to betray me?

When I asked you to vote
for tuition at the university?

Was it then?

How did you do it, you son of a bitch?

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS
CITIZEN LIBERTY WINS THE PRIMARIES

with possibly the most controversial
businessman of recent times.

Do you feel like starting a revolution
before leaving this world?

Let's move forward.

Wise man on demand, here's Protagoras,
considered the first Greek sophist.

Griego, I think the kid's waiting for you.

CANDIDO ALVAREZ TOLEDO

I understand you.

I was in your place.

We can do something.

Will you still do business with me?

I'm listening.

It's about the dirty money.

I know you don't praise Kravitz.

It's about blowing up
the whole fucking system.

You'll be third on the list.

"The fox had to open his mouth to speak,

"and accidentally let go of the hen."

...I want to share our website,

where you will be able
to see all my proposals.

At ricardopratpresident.net

It's not "dot net," it's "dot com."

Did you upload it?

This son of a bitch can't win again.

You would distract me
with one thing and do another.

Not again.

Do you know how a magic act ends?

Fucking up the magician.

I'm so stupid.

Griego!

FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES

Stop there!

Go!

Griego!

Why did you betray us?

Why did you vote against the faculty?

Did you really think
I was going to buy the Cyrano thing?

Why didn't you tell me you knew all along?

Because you were going to stop.

And I needed you to keep going.

If Prat went down,
there'd be no interview.

No debate.

Or your big promotion.

It was the last chance I had
to get anywhere.

You were incredible.

I owed you.

Thanks for helping me.

The night we voted,
you already knew, right?

That you'd betray us.
Did you already know?

You should thank me.

That you sold the faculty?

That afternoon, just that afternoon,
Miguel Prat appeared.

This is who I am, Camila.

It's what I am.

I would pretend with you guys.

You and your classmates made me feel
that I could be someone else.

Someone...

inspiring.

But no.
The character wasn't going to last long.

And Miguel Prat came
and offered me a lot of money.

I didn't feel like an impostor either.

I don't believe you.

It was never about the money.

Nor the power.

The night before we voted

something else happened.

What are you talking about?

You dazzled me.

But you weren't into me.

I never had the virtue of beauty.
I've known for a long time.

And I tried to make up for it with words.

But words, with you,

they weren't enough.

I remember that day you came
and told me how much you admired me.

How, thanks to me,

you saw the world differently.

But you left with another guy.

Don't take it as something frivolous.

Plato equates beauty
with truth and goodness.

Shut up.

Shut your mouth for once.

Like you or Plato
could ever tell me what beauty is.

And yes.

Your nose is...

enormous.

Big.

Immense.

Of flesh and blood.

Really.

It's beautiful.

I love it.

I love your nose.

I never understood why you left.

You did something huge today.

They'll find a way to get people
to think about something else.

I have to go. Really quick.
Really far away.

And for a long time.

How did you manage
to turn everything around today?

A good advisor never reveals his secrets.

SOME TIME LATER

Good morning.

Good morning!

- Good morning!
- Good morning!

How are you? Hi.

THE REBEL

Today we'll talk about
recent Argentine politics.

Great plan, isn't it?

Listen up,

after one of the most extraordinary
debates in history,

the image
of the two main candidates collapsed.

The outlook changed completely.

A recent poll shows that,
in a truly unprecedented event,

voting intentions have increased
for those who, until a few hours ago

had no chance at all.

It's very likely, ladies and gentlemen,
that the next president of our country

will be Mr. Orlando Chirino,

the representative
of the Popular Ecologist Party.

Good morning, Argentines.
What a start to the day.
