THE SECRET LIVES OF COUPLES

"WE ALL HAVE A SECRET LIFE
OR MORE THAN ONE"

Have you got a secret?

Something you never told anyone?

Something you'll take
to the tomb with you?

That nobody else will ever know?

Is there someone
you'd tell everything?

Absolutely everything about you?

That's my job.

Uncovering secrets.

And sex is what I focus on.
I'm a sexologist.

And in a way,

most of the world's secrets
has something to do with sex.

It's amazing how many things
we hide during our lifetime.

Everybody has a secret life.

Or more than one.

If people could really solve
their sexual issues,

many of the world's issues
would be solved too.

Everything in life begins with sex,
beginning with life itself.

And it would all be so simple
if it weren't so complicated.

As soon as we get past
our worldly concerns,

sex can reach
truly transcendent levels.

Providing permanent ecstasy.

Eclipsing any kind of drug.

I work with human beings
on a daily basis,

and I notice how a relationship
that begins so lovingly

can suddenly
turn into a battlefield.

But nobody is victorious
in such a war.

Victory is an illusion.

Any sense of victory in a love war

is always and inevitably
utter defeat.

Remember yesterday? Remember?

You didn't stop talking
after forcing me to come over.

You do exactly the same thing.
You forced me too.

Guys, guys, please, please.

This is going nowhere.
You're not listening.

You can't hear each other
and I can't hear either of you.

Can we have
a civilized conversation?

Sofia, the point is
that Marta doesn't like sex.

Please don't speak for me.
You know I hate that.

- What you hate is sex!
- Speak for yourself.

Marta, calm down and sit down.
Take it easy. Calm down.

Ricardo, take it easy. Let's all calm
down and have a conversation, okay?

Let's do a breathing exercise.
Alright, guys?

Inhale.

Take a deep breath.

Hold the air in for a second
and then let it all out.

Get rid of all those emotions.
All of them.

Ricardo.

Calm down, relax.
Loosen those shoulders.

That's it, your head, your chest.

Get rid of those emotions.

- Admit it. You don't like it.
- That's a lie. He's lying.

She tolerates having sex.
She just lies there and that's it.

He doesn't have a clue
because he just does it.

He just screws me and that's it.

Who am I supposed to screw?
Somebody in the street?

Go looking for tricks out there?

Ricardo, that's not what she meant.

Guys get fed up when their women
refuse to have sex.

There's always some excuse
not to have sex.

"I have a headache. I'm tired."
"I need to sleep."

I don't like having sex with you.

- See? She admits it finally.
- I really hate it.

How can I be with someone
who hates sex?

No, no, I enjoy having sex.
I just don't enjoy it with you.

She's just frigid. See?
She's frigid!

- Ricardo...
- I don't need a frigid woman!

That's biased, out of context.

- I'm not frigid.
- No?

No, because when I'm alone,
I masturbate and I have orgasms.

You don't need me.

I don't need you at all.

I've listened to many couples.

They finally let things out
they've been hiding for years.

You hate having sex,
at least with me.

That's that then.
There's nothing else to say.

And that tiny gesture

can be the road to freedom
quite often.

I...

never had an orgasm with him.

I faked it.

Intimate secrets are revealed
in the heat of the moment.

- Did you try to discuss it?
- Yes I did.

Some are revealed slowly.

- You did? I never heard you.
- Not directly.

While other secrets remain untold.

She never tells me anything.

This is a very special area
we've made

which has actually helped
a lot of people.

I'd like you to...
I want you to meet Miranda.

Come here. Miranda is my associate.

She'll tell you
some more about Tantra.

- Let's go see it.
- Yes.

We created a safe place

where people can openly address
their sexual issues,

deal with inhibitions
and realize their fantasies,

explore the imagination.

Tantra will show you how to use
your own sexual energy.

The practical sessions room.

We like creating
a sacred environment

which is how we think
sex should be treated.

You saw the coaches
with a few couples,

but it's not only for couples

since a single person
can learn the tantric techniques

and immensely improve
their quality of life.

These techniques help solve
issues and mental blocks.

Our goal is to improve
your sexual intimacy

and release all the potential
you've been repressing.

Yes, unknowingly.

Because I think
the issue in that regard

is precisely
the lack of communication.

There is so much you can discover
while you're together intimately

and these classes
can be very helpful.

But like that, you mean?

Undress and be with them
right next to us?

Focus on expanding your sensitivity.

The skin can process
any number of sensations.

Our bodies have an infinite
number of erogenous zones.

These sessions transform
your bioelectrical programming.

They increase the levels
of your pleasure hormones,

endorphins, serotonins, oxytocin.

During an orgasm,

the entire body experiences
an intense electrical discharge.

Our objective
is to pursue greater quality,

greater knowledge,
to prolong that sensation,

so your body can actually
experience a dimension

which you never
even thought existed,

just like an orgasm
that rocks the entire body,

where the spiritual,
the emotional and the physical

are one and the same.

Looks good, right?

- Yes it does.
- I'll separate this for you.

- Include this too.
- This one? Okay.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Vicente, right?

Renata, the photographer.
We're working together.

Yes. I asked for someone.

The guy that worked with me
switched to sports.

Any political experience?

If I tell you I know nothing
about politics,

that it bores me to death,
will you get rid of me?

I'd say you're an honest person,

which is something
that politics seem to lack.

Your desk.

Yes, those guys
never speak the truth.

They talk a lot,

skip the truth
and keep talking, talking.

Politics are rotten.

Don't you want to know
what's rotten in Denmark?

Can you find out?
Will they let us find out?

Don't they always hide the truth?

You have to like
doing investigations.

What was your job?

I covered crimes,
took pictures of cold flesh.

- They're still called that?
- Dead bodies. Stiffs.

The dead don't complain.

Brace yourself in politics
for the living dead,

zombies, vampires,
really scary guys.

I don't scare easily.

I saw your blog yesterday.
You're outspoken, aren't you?

You don't hold back anything.
I think that's cool.

Yes, more or less,
sometimes I know stuff.

Others I can't prove
and it all goes to hell.

Happens a lot to the experts.

Hold on.

Yes?

I'll be there.
I'll be late but I'll be there.

Okay. Bye.

Vicente, do that profile
on Edgar Heleno Andreazza.

Who, the ex-senator
of Banco Andreazza?

- Right.
- What about Brasilia?

I want to cover
the Social Security scandal.

I've researched a lot,
and you said I could.

Not yet. He's a bigwig, too big
for you, and somebody's on it.

Do the profile thing,
you'll get your chance.

Who are you sending, Marcela?

I have more info than anyone else.

Rogerio's been on it
long before you.

I had no idea
you were on the Brasilia thing.

I got some awesome data,
but if you want to help me,

I could use a good P.A.

- Okay.
- Okay,

Gustavo has the data.
So Vicente, go right ahead.

- I'll work on the profile.
- Perfect. Focus on the donation.

- What donation?
- Gustavo, show him.

It's all here. I have a file
on the bank and his personal life.

- I deleted the boring crap.
- Thanks, Gustavo.

You can take it home
and keep trying if you want.

I don't have time for that.

I'm so happy to see you.
How are you?

I think I'm okay.

But I can't say
it's been easy either.

This is the only place I can talk.

I think you're just fine.
I'm going to discharge you.

You could take a vacation,
do some traveling.

You've mentioned some places.
Paris. Amsterdam.

Why don't you take a little rest?

Wouldn't that be good?

I can't get any rest, Sofia.

I only feel good with you.

The rest of the time, I'm...
I'm always working as if...

As if there's nothing else.

That's precisely why
a trip would be good for you.

You'd get out
of that virtual world of yours.

You need to go out there,

see the city, the streets,
some real people.

Not interested.

Daniel, that's no life.

I'm working on it. I really am.

I'm working on getting
the numbers out of my head.

I think I'm getting it all
out of my system.

Are you scared of traveling?

Not anymore.

Good.

Doesn't the bank owe you a vacation?

Several. A lot of them.

It would be a great opportunity
even if it's just a few days.

It would be great if we go together.

No, Daniel.
You don't need me anymore.

You don't need me.

You don't need me anymore.
You're done with me.

I can help you organize, plan,
and think about your trip.

We can also suspend
our sessions temporarily.

How about that?

Suspend them?

I don't know, I...

I don't want to stop.

Daniel, you don't depend on me.
You don't depend on anyone.

And I'm just a phone call away
if you need me.

No, no, I don't...
I don't need any more of that.

I brought it for you. It's yours.

Daniel, I... You...

I can't accept this.

I... You've already given me
much more than...

I don't want you to have
any financial issues or debts.

This will make you free.

You'll be able to focus
on your work and your book.

No, you...
I won't be able to pay you back.

I never asked you to.

It's only fair and I want to,
but I just can't right now.

But I can offer you
some Tantra stock.

- You'd be our partner.
- I don't want to be your partner.

It's not an investment.
It's a donation.

That makes no sense.
You've given me so much...

Sofia.

We are...

We're way beyond any measure
of what's right or wrong.

We've been through so much recently.

- I'm better.
- I know.

- I've had a few relapses.
- We all do.

I can't breathe properly.
I have panic attacks.

Daniel, we've left all that behind.

Like you yourself said,

any measure
of what's right or wrong.

We're way beyond what's right.
And what's wrong.

No, Daniel, no.

- I need you.
- You don't need me, Daniel.

You don't need me anymore.

Stop playing at the table.

Luca, put that away.

Who's taking you, Lorena?

Lara's mom is taking us.

No, she isn't. She's going with Ian.

Shut up!

- That's a lie.
- Who's Ian?

Nobody.

I saw her kissing him on the lips.

Luca, leave you sister alone.

Idiot, you're such a busybody.
Stop it! Stop it.

That's enough!

Stop it, you irritating moron!

Can you tell me who...
Who is this Ian?

Her boyfriend.

He's the idiot.

I don't like the way you two
treat each other one bit.

I need to take this.

Hello.

Listen.

Listen, listen, Daniel.

I can...
Calm down, calm down, Daniel.

No, we can meet this evening
if you like.

You have the awards.

What about first thing
tomorrow morning?

Sure. Definitely.

Nobody is going to see us.
Don't worry about it.

Just give me a call to...

Hello.

Hey, hey, hey!
You can't go in there, she's...

What now, Jonas? Tell me.

Coming into my office like this.
What do you want?

If you don't sign this
you'll see exactly what I want.

Sign these one by one
and I'll leave you alone.

I'll sign anything you want,
but Pedro stays with me.

Speaking of which...

You need to sign this too

so Pedro can travel with me.

I'm not signing anything
if you take Pedro away from me.

You know you're signing.
Why make it so difficult?

Why are you driving me
up the wall like this?

Turning me into someone I'm not?

You should use me as an example
for your... patients.

How could you make me
an even worse person?

I didn't put you
in that hole you're in.

You did that to yourself.

But I won't let you drag me
and my son down with you.

He's coming with me. Period.

Look at me, Jonas.

Do whatever you want.
I'm not scared of you.

You threaten me with blackmail,
which is the coward's weapon.

If you take Pedro away from me,
it's me who'll be dangerous.

Because if I have nothing to lose,

you're the one
that should be scared.

You know I used to like
that temper of yours?

It turned me on.

I'll sign those papers.

Keep the money, leave the country,

I won't file a complaint,
but Pedro stays with me.

My next patient is waiting.

You haven't been a good mom
to Pedro.

You never were
and you never will be.

I am an excellent mom to Pedro.

The judge won't think so.

The judge will think his dad
is a scumbag conman

who's exploiting a totally
irrelevant situation.

Or he'll realize that his mom
is a dangerous schizophrenic

who loses it all the time
and thus endangering

the kid's physical
and mental wellbeing.

That's a lie.

How dare you use that against me?

Six months.

He stays with me for six months.

We're going to Australia,
he's going to learn English.

That could expand his horizons.

A truce.

Now sign all these papers.

From now for...

six months.

This is our agreement.

This is our deal right here.

We have a deal now.

Six months.

Not a day more.

Now get out.

Get out of here.

Vicente.

You're late.

Where do we begin?

With that guy.

- Who?
- That guy.

Tall guy, grey hair?

He's very powerful.

An ex-senator.

Believe it or not,
he's clean as a whistle.

Looks like the Andreazza Fund
donated 22 schools to the state.

A good ex-senator.
That's a very rare thing.

That's his wife Elisa
seated next to him.

She's known for her simplicity.

She's the fund's social worker.

And that's Erick his son.

Single, works at dad's bank,
parties hard.

His photos are all over
the social columns,

always with cute models.

They say he's opening a bar
with two other partners.

And that's the daughter, Giordana,

married with a five-year-old
daughter.

I have very little on her.

Doesn't go anywhere,
doesn't go partying,

doesn't do interviews,
hates the spotlight.

Very low profile.

Take a few close-ups.
I'll make some contacts.

Make sure you get him
with any important people.

How do I know who's important?

Take pictures of everybody.
We'll do that later.

- Okay.
- And jot down their names.

Okay.

Good evening.
May I take a picture of you?

To business. May they be many.

My pleasure, Otero.

- Otero.
- Yes?

- Can I count on your influence?
- Always.

You know
you're like a brother to me,

and in an emergency like this,

only you can get me
a meeting with Edgar Eleno.

In order for our company
to win that bid...

I know. I know. I know.

You know my forte
is solving problems.

- Otero.
- You know I'm on your side.

I'll see what I can do.

Otero, Edgar isn't picking up,

and I'm not sure
this is the right time.

We can stop the whole thing.

Call the whole thing off
and speak directly with him.

Such a rush job as this
has certain aspects even I...

That I didn't expect,
so I need to know...

Daniel, Daniel,
do exactly what we...

Don't call anything off.
We're not stopping now, okay?

Smile so I'll know you agree.

Now!

Good.

Just do what you have to do.
Nothing's changed.

Go about your business,
speak to no one,

and stay away from anyone
trying to talk to you.

Got it?

I'm going to have my picture taken.

Hello. Excuse me.

Can you take a picture of my family?

Felipe, Giordana,
let's take a picture together.

Come, Felipe. Come here honey, come.

Wonderful. Felipe.

Giordana, please stand up.
Can you take one of us?

Please smile, Giordana.

Just one smile?

Honey.

- Vicente, we need to talk.
- Excuse me.

I think I got all the guests,
even the servers.

- Sorry.
- Sorry.

- Wow, this is great.
- Renata.

Since you're so apolitical,

the guy with the glasses,

that's Zairo,

vice president
of the Brazilian Republic.

Even I know that.
I'm not from another planet.

But they are and the other ET,

the one with the wig,
that's Tarso Galhardo.

Tarso Galhardo?
The Chairman of the Senate.

- And he's a crook too.
- I know.

Tarso. Tarso Galhardo.

Thank you.

They did the Winter Olympics
in 2000 something.

You have to spend
like 20 days there, it's great.

- We spent a month.
- A month. It was awesome.

Go anywhere there isn't
a bunch of crappy kids.

Throw stuff off the cable car.

Come here.
This isn't the Scotch I ordered.

Can't you see it's Bourbon?
Do you even know what that is?

You don't know the difference?
Get something.

- A dry Martini, please.
- It's called assistentialism.

The dynamics of any couple

are a complex bundle of feelings.

At first, apparently,

both want the same thing,
to be happy.

But the threads
and the circumstances

that connect them
to that idea of happiness

all end up pointing
to another direction.

That simple objective
is not a straight line.

It has hundreds of thousands
of detours

and choices all the time

that puts happiness in the backseat.

And what really matters,

the truth of the matter
is the struggle for power.

What's at stake is power.

That obsession with power.

Who pulls the strings.
Who is going to win.

It's a pleasure to call
my dear friend

Edgar Eleno Andreazza.

All that matters more than anything
is competing.

The desire to win
becomes the only objective.

And that can ruin everything.

Even while it seems to be a victory.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you for being here today.

It's a great honor and pleasure
to be here.

I've thought a lot about my dad.

A simple man,
a man who started with nothing.

But a man of solid
ethical and moral values.

A man who believed in honesty,

who believed in hard work
and his fellowmen.

More than anything,
he believed in his fellowmen.

You haven't gone home yet?
Why are you still here so late?

Getting you something to eat.

Did you call home
to say you'll be late?

Alice? Hello.

Luis asked me to call you.
He wanted to call you earlier.

Yes but he's in a meeting
with a client, the poor thing.

But he's leaving
in just five minutes.

No, no! Two. Two minutes.

Right, but he wants
to speak with you.

It's all my fault.

He asked me to phone you
but I couldn't.

I'm sorry, Alice. Alright.

Hello.

Yes. That's right.

It's not just me anymore.

And I want to say that we need to...

That we must...

You little brat.

- Shut up. Shut up.
- Tell your dad about it.

- Shut up!
- Don't touch me.

Don't touch me.
I'm the boss here. You...

I'll get rid of you like that.

You should've thought of that,
Erick, it's too late.

That bomb is exploding now
and I'm not defusing it.

What? Is that a threat?

You're threatening me, you scumbag?

Dad's doormat!
You are a big fat loser.

Dad said you're a loser.

You're way too dumb
to take you into account.

Scumbag.

I won't let you screw me.
I'll screw you first.

And we should emphasize

the importance of such values
in our family.

Good evening
and thank you very much.

Don't cause me
any more problems, Elisa.

Can't you handle at least
one thing around here?

Funny you should say that,

when I run this family
all by myself.

You don't even bother
to ask what's going on.

It's true, Edgar.

You just let me deal
with all the issues,

all you do is complain
about everything I do.

Elisa, I should count
all your mistakes,

everybody's mistakes, in fact,

since nobody else
has a mind of their own.

But of course they don't.
You don't let us.

You're like a bulldozer
that runs over us.

And you want everybody
to think like you do.

Think like me, Elisa?

Who else can possibly
think like me around here?

That bunch of muddlers. And you too.

You still protect him, a grown man.

I know you give him money.

I don't give Erick any money.

You know he lives off
his paycheck at the bank.

It's not my cross to bear.

Elisa, please stop acting like
the Mother of Sorrows.

He needs to grow up.
He needs to work hard.

He needs to suffer and learn,
get to know the business that's his.

What kind of son is this?

It's just a phase, Edgar.

He'll get over his rebellious phase.

He's getting there.

Shut up, Elisa. Just shut up, okay?

It's your fault.

You've always been
the absent father, always.

- Let go.
- Where are you going?

To smoke.

Don't smoke here.

Don't smoke here.

Moron.

You're a sexist
who's trying to control me.

I control you at the right time.

And when it's the right time
I obey you.

But only at the right time.
You know what your problem is?

You're a spoilt brat
that's always bossing me around.

If I controlled you now...

would you put it out?

What's in it for me?

If you want me
to be a good little girl I need

some kind of reward for obeying you.

Maybe I don't like you that good.

What if we switched roles?

And I controlled you?

Maybe to obey you...

I'd want

something in exchange.

A reward for being a good boy.

Maybe I don't want you
to be that good.

Hello.

Sofia, they're hunting me down.

They're hunting me down.
I had no choice.

They're coming to get me
because I saw it and I know.

They know what I know.

I'm doomed.
There's nowhere for me to hide.

- Calm down.
- I can't take it anymore.

Calm down, Daniel.

- They're here.
- Daniel.

Nobody's out there.

It's all...
It's all in your imagination.

Calm down. Calm down.
Control yourself.

- Three hundred. Forty-eight.
- Hold my hand. That's it.

Three hundred and 47 million.

Four hundred eighty-five thousand.

Nine hundred and twelve.
Eight hundred fifteen. 712.

Calm down, Daniel.

Nine hundred thirteen.
913 million. Script. Twelve...

One and seven and twelve.
Twelve, eleven, nine.

Nine hundred and 97 million.

Nine hundred eighty.
Why did I get into this?

Four hundred 80 thousand
and seventy-five.

Seven thousand
eight hundred and twelve.

Why did I do this?
And seven and five...

Daniel.

- Take this, here.
- There's nothing I can do.

They know. They know everything.

Calm down. Calm down.
Have all of it.

That's it. That's it.

Daniel, calm down, calm down.
There's nobody out there.

There's no escape.

- I understand. Calm down.
- There's nowhere to go.

Try to breathe.
Remember that exercise we did?

Try to breathe like that.

- Breathe in.
- I had no choice.

- Breathe out.
- I had no choice.

Daniel, they don't exist.
Nobody's out to get you.

Nobody's coming after you.
It's a panic attack, okay?

It's the same panic attack
you've had before,

then it goes away
and you see it's nothing.

You can calm down now.
It's okay, Daniel.

I know.

I know.

I know. I know.

Sorry for getting you involved.

Feeling better?

- I'm going home.
- Don't go, you can't drive yet.

I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm okay now.

Daniel, don't leave.
I think you should stay.

You can stay here.
That's not a problem.

You can spend the night if you want
and rest until you've calmed down.

Put this somewhere safe
and don't tell anybody.

Don't talk about this to anyone.
Only we know about this.

Don't worry, I'll hide it.

Daniel, don't leave. Stay.

That's not necessary.
It really isn't.

Thanks, Sofia.

You always save me
from falling off the edge.

Sorry for showing up here so late.

I had nowhere else to go.

Come over whenever you want.

And call me whenever you need to.

If you go home now,
will you call me when you get there?

You give me strength.

Thanks.
