Original subtitles

There is still her in the sincere love

In the heart, in the air, everywhere, always between us

There is her memory, there is your love for her

And I know, my love, that if I cling to you, you feel my kisses

I will be reborn in the memory of the hand of your kisses

And I know, my love, that you can't free me

But I know that she

is in every thought of yours, love

in your eyes, in your breath, in the air, everywhere

always between us

there is the memory of her

there is your love for her

Why are you going so slow?

It's hard to drive with the rain

at least for me

Yes, it's true

and then there is no hurry

Are you tired? Do you want me to go faster?

No, no, and then sometimes

it can be nice even in the storm

How big!

Yes, but look how bad it went.

It's all abandoned.

We'll put it back in order.

You'll see, it'll come back as beautiful as before.

What are you doing? You shouldn't go down with this water.

Wait a moment.

You're sad.

No!

What are you doing?

Welcome home!

Let's hope the light works here too.

It works.

How beautiful!

It's great!

It has a strange character.

Do you find it?

It's disgusting.

I don't want to welcome anyone.

Don't exaggerate.

There's just a little dust and cobwebs.

It's normal, the house is closed.

Is it far from here?

14 km.

With the car, in 20 minutes you're in class to do your homework.

And Bologna?

200 km.

I have to leave the evening before.

Thank God you do your homework when you want.

Do you do the tests?

No.

Don't you want to see the rest of the house?

It's a nice way to change the house.

I'm going to go to the bathroom.

I'll be right back.

From those stairs we go up to our bedroom.

It's hot, isn't it?

Someone's lost his way.

Whoever it was, he did us a favour.

I don't understand. No one's stepped in here for many years.

Come on, you'll make a mistake.

Look, there's someone.

Claudio!

Hi, you scared me.

I thought you were Uncle Henry's uncle. When did you come back?

Yesterday.

Ah, you came back yesterday.

Who is she? Your wife?

Yes.

Young.

Oh, thank you.

Claudio, I told you I'd get married.

She was my student.

Respect her, she's older than you.

And this is my son. What do you think?

Hi.

Can I not call you Mum?

Of course. I'm Lalla.

My mother's name was Simona.

This was your mother?

Yes.

She must have been very beautiful.

Yes, but you're even more beautiful.

Congratulations, Dad.

Have you at least warned Uncle Henry?

Yes, in a long letter, in English.

Have you had dinner?

Yes, thank you.

How are you? Have you organised yourself here?

How can I? I was in Livorno and I packed a supermarket.

Who's keeping you in order in the house?

Here, good people.

My dear.

This is a problem that needs to be solved.

Maybe I can help you. I teach in Livorno.

I know a lot of people.

In Livorno?

There's no university in Livorno.

No, but there's a high school. I teach in letters.

She's preparing for her degree in archaeology.

She too?

She too.

It'll be a very hard life with you two.

You mean football?

Yes.

Then, as you can see, we can talk about something else.

I'm passionate.

Please.

Are you going to the game?

Of course I'm going.

If someone comes with me.

But your father doesn't want to know.

Then, for Sunday, you'll be busy.

All right.

And you'll be there on Sunday afternoon, right?

Yes, but I won't be there. You'll come with me.

Dad, you've made a great choice.

No, here they are.

I think you'll be very tired.

The journey, the time...

Well, dad, good night.

You too.

Bye.

Bye.

By the way, you did well to settle in the room of the poor mother.

It's the most repaired.

Bye, good night.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought you here.

No, because...

He didn't say anything bad.

Do you think it's an easy situation for him too?

No, of course not.

I think he's more embarrassed than us.

You know, it's hard to understand, Claudio.

I didn't think he was so attached to his mother.

But it's normal, isn't it?

Let's go to our room.

Oh, beautiful!

The dove and the eagle.

Why a dove?

Because I know you better.

Let's hope you won't change your mind.

And the bull?

I'm the bull, right?

Yes, the bull is the unbreakable force, the physical power.

It's him, dad.

Yes, but he's a very strong animal.

He's very stupid.

The bull, perhaps, but his son, the minotaur, is not at all stupid.

No, no, no. He's much worse. He's a beast.

He pulls people into his den and then eats them.

Well, if he's hungry and eats people, he's right.

Points of view, opinions.

And the giraffe?

The giraffe is me.

Why the giraffe?

Because it's stupidly tall.

It's a wolf and when it walks, it always seems to have to crawl on its own legs.

I don't know why, but the giraffe...

It's so ridiculous.

Anyway, it's an always elegant animal.

Even when it kills.

The giraffe kills.

Yes.

The male is only in the season of love to defend the companion.

Well, violent but poetic.

The one who kills always has poetic reasons.

If he doesn't have them, he invents them.

Right?

Exactly.

What are you doing?

Are you getting up?

You don't eat anymore?

No.

The table doesn't get old, but I want to grow up.

I'm happy, I like to hear the dove.

Where did you learn to do these wonderful things with paper?

It's nothing, it does wonderful things,

like the light bulbs, collages, but it destroys them.

Why?

Because beauty is lost.

And then the paper burns so well.

Well done.

Thank you.

Yes, well done.

You'll see, I can do much more.

Claudio, be nice to her.

Of course, dad. Why?

You know...

I'm going to Bologna,

and I'm going to the Spina Necropolis,

I won't have much time to stay here.

In short, I count on you, Claudio.

I trust you, I trust you with my wife.

Luigi, I'm a big boy, aren't I?

Yes, but knowing that there's a man, my son, at home,

calms me down.

You understand, don't you?

Yes, I understand.

I'm a big boy, I trust you.

I trust you.

But of course, dad, it's natural.

Don't worry, you'll see we'll be fine, right, Lalla?

Of course.

For me, this is the reconstruction of a family.

And it's very important.

Seriously.

It's everything.

I'll wait for you. See you on Wednesday.

I said I'd do my best. But wait for me on Thursday.

I wonder why Claudio left so early.

He must be going to university.

Right.

I'll see him when I come back.

Watch out, it's a bad road.

Don't run.

I mean...

Watch out.

I'll run to make you look good.

Come in.

Hi, I heard some strange screams. What are they?

They are animal love screams.

What?

A 33-round. Sex, folklore, ecology.

What a curious environment.

Do you like it?

Well, I would say so.

Ah, your mother.

Beautiful.

Yes.

She was...

She was a very strong woman.

Hard.

Why hard?

Because she scared me. I was afraid.

She died badly in a car accident.

To avoid a dog, she ended up against a tree.

That's what they told me.

I'm sorry.

Let's talk about something else.

By the way, your father was looking for you.

He wanted to say hello.

Yes, but I don't like them.

Wait, I'll change the record.

Do you dance?

Yes, I do.

Now?

Yes, right away.

You like what you think and you do it.

Right away.

You see, things the next day are never the same importance.

The fireworks, for example, at night are beautiful.

The next morning, with the sun, if you think about it, you laugh.

Isn't that so?

Sorry, but...

I think it's late, I have to go to school.

Too bad.

But it's not that late.

There are 14 km.

I'm really sorry, but school is school.

Don't worry, we'll dance another time.

Bye.

You're always so quiet.

At the table, yes.

They taught me that when I was little.

You loved your mother very much.

You?

Chianti dei Colli Senesi.

At home, we always drank when there were guests.

But you're not a guest.

No, or at least I hope so.

Claudio, I'd rather be a friend.

That's very fair.

Actually, since we're friends, do me a favor.

Pass me the salt.

Can I come in? No!

Ok, ok, I won't come in.

How are you going to school? With the car?

Yes, of course.

Why?

Because I have a little surprise. You don't move with the car.

You have a rubber on the ground.

A rubber on the ground? And there is no spare tire?

Yes, there is.

And then?

Then that one will also swell.

Oh God!

Lalla!

Listen a little.

Are you afraid to go on a motorcycle?

I'm on a motorcycle, but I don't even think about it.

Am I going too fast?

No, no.

I don't see anything.

Have you ever been on a motorcycle?

No, but it's nice.

I just shouldn't go.

Why?

My heart, unfortunately.

I have to avoid all emotions.

But, then, why did you take me on a motorcycle?

Well, you came to school, and then...

And then, when it's destiny, it's destiny.

But...

Look, I'm not afraid, you know.

Oh, don't tell your father, he doesn't know anything.

Your father? No, of course not.

Instead, it's not better that you get treated.

Treat? For what it's worth, you know,

there comes a time...

You, rather, won't be impressed.

There are so many people, you know...

No, what nonsense!

Of course I'm not impressed.

Just be careful.

All right, I'll come and pick you up at the exit.

All right, bye.

Bye!

Good morning, good morning.

Okay...

Claudio, I'll make you some coffee.

Claudio, can you hear me? I'll make you...

Yes? She wants something.

Who are you?

Her name is Elvira.

She's the daughter of our farmer. She'll come here every day.

Oh, good! How nice of you.

It's useful.

Welcome, Elvira.

Thank you.

Let's go to the kitchen and prepare breakfast.

Good idea.

Ah, the milk is gone. Do you mind?

No, I don't like milk.

Well, I don't like it either.

Careful.

Here.

What have you prepared? A banquet?

No, a normal breakfast.

You know, my mother is English.

In this house, we eat a lot in the morning.

Beer too?

Of course.

In the morning?

Always.

I told you, I don't like milk.

Do you have enough?

Yes, I have enough.

I'll make you some coffee.

Thank you.

In the garden, do you want some?

Yes.

Yes, wait a moment, I'll give you a hand.

Ah, what a nice idea.

You'll see, there's a wonderful sun outside.

Here, we'll put this here.

Here.

And then, the fries, the fries.

Here, good.

The orange.

Oh, my God.

The arm.

Here.

The beer.

Here, we'll put the beer here.

And also, here.

Don't run!

Don't worry, I still have to make the coffee.

Go, I'll take you.

Excuse me, can you take the jam in the fridge?

The jam?

Yes.

In the fridge, yes, now I see.

I can't do it, Claudio, Claudio, help, Claudio, help!

Wait, wait, wait, I'll help you.

I'll fix everything.

Yes, but...

Take the fries.

I have busy hands.

Take the fries.

But I have a free mouth, look.

But no.

See?

But what...

And now?

Now, I'll do it.

But no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, of course not.

I'll do it.

No, no, no, no.

But what...

And now?

And now we make two toasts.

How nice!

The first time my mother took me, she said I started crying.

Why?

I don't know, maybe... maybe my face.

But... how was your mother?

She was...

See?

What are you doing?

No, not like that.

Not like that?

That's not a rifle, it's a machine gun.

Oh, a machine gun!

Look, first of all, you have to aim at something.

At what?

I don't know, at someone you'd ideally want to hit.

Here, like this.

My mother was very beautiful, but...

but sometimes she was mean.

Mean?

What's the smell?

Listen, it's late, maybe you should go.

Do you think?

I know.

It's always time to do something else.

Yeah.

Have you been to Luna Park?

Yes.

And have you had fun?

Quite a lot.

You like photography?

Yes, I've seen a lot.

I've taken many without even noticing.

Very good.

That night shirt is nice.

Do you like it? I bought it in Livorno.

I'm glad you're together.

It could have been the other way around.

It would have been a thought...

to know you're sad here, alone.

But you're not sad at all.

Not at all.

You're always happy, you always smile.

You're happy here in photography.

What do you mean by that?

Nothing.

You don't look like yourself.

I don't understand.

Why isn't Claudio here?

He knew I was coming back.

Why did he leave this evening?

I don't understand.

I don't see him at the start.

He won't be here tomorrow morning.

You know it too.

Claudio is a strange boy.

And he's so young.

It's not there.

What do you mean?

It's not there.

Can't you see?

He never did this.

It's always the first time.

He hasn't even come home.

You're the one who's causing trouble.

What do you think he did in Livorno last night?

I'm afraid something happened to him.

Something like this always happens.

It's getting late. I'll get your suitcase.

Are you working on your thesis?

No, I haven't had time.

Can I be of any help?

You don't have to tell me. I'm always your husband.

Your husband, maybe for hours.

Peace!

Elvira, try to find this pipe. It can't be lost.

Go on, you can buy another one in Bologna.

No, it's my pipe.

We found a tomb in Spina that has an underground niche.

Do you want to see it open?

Unfortunately, I have school.

Have a nice trip, professor.

Thank you.

If you can open it on Sunday, I can come and get you if you want.

Come and get me here in Bologna, take me to Spina...

and then we'll come back here on the same day.

It's crazy.

I didn't think about it.

Bye!

Claudio!

Hi.

Where were you?

I was here.

Is it too late to say goodbye to your father?

He's gone.

That's not your pipe. He was looking for it.

It smokes too much.

You made me think.

Nothing happened, right?

Not yet, Lalla.

Or maybe it did.

What was supposed to happen?

Nothing.

I just want you to be here and be well.

I'll take you to school.

Is it possible that the car's tire hasn't been repaired yet?

Of course it's been repaired.

It's been put back in place for three days.

So, I'll take you.

Yes, I'll be ready in two minutes.

And after every reply, one says immediately, lie or truth.

It's easy, isn't it?

Let's try.

Then I'll start.

Eh.

Do you like Elvira?

She's a great woman of service.

And don't you mind that in the house,

besides you, there's another beautiful woman?

I don't know, I should think about it.

Truth.

But in the end you didn't answer me.

No, it's that I'm diplomatic.

All right, now it's your turn.

Eh, let's see.

Why didn't you tell me that the car tire had been repaired?

Because it's never been repaired, just like it's never been broken.

And why did you tell me this lie?

I wanted to accompany you, I like being with you.

Yes, lie.

No, no, truth.

Thank you.

Come on, let's go on.

You, who would you like to kill?

Me?

But no one.

But if someone...

If someone had to destroy your life with his

presence, wouldn't you want to see him disappear?

I don't know.

I should find myself.

Truth.

But you have to stop giving me these inaccurate answers.

It's not even loyal, you know.

Eh, well, sorry, you ask me certain questions.

Then let's hear a little of your questions.

I'll serve you right away.

Where did you sleep last night?

At home.

Yes.

And then why?

Why?

In your room, the bed wasn't clean.

And you didn't sleep?

Maybe because...

Because I slept somewhere else.

And with whom? With Elvira?

Wrong.

You asked one more question and now you're paying a fine.

No, but what fine?

Come on, Claudio, you didn't answer.

Who did you sleep with last night?

I don't have to answer.

You can ask only two questions and then...

Claudio, the game doesn't matter.

Come on, tell me, please, who did you sleep with last night?

And you?

Lalla!

You have no idea what sleeping is for me!

What?

You know you're in this room together with him,

But Claudio...

And your husband, I know.

But do you think this is good enough to put me in peace?

How can I take it that you undress in front of him?

That you sleep in the same bed next to him?

Claudio, please!

And that every time...

Claudio, stop!

Stop!

You give me so much joy, you know?

But I'm afraid, I'm so afraid.

Of me?

Of what I feel.

I've never had anything like this.

And you're his son.

And you?

You couldn't be his son either.

I'm not his son.

I'm his daughter.

And you?

You couldn't be his son either.

No.

I'm not afraid of what I feel.

What is love to you?

To marry?

To have someone like you who is like my father?

No, Lalla, it's not that.

Love is you and me.

Love is looking into your eyes and shivering.

It's holding hands and passing through people without seeing them.

Love is a very sweet thing, beautiful.

I've been in love with you since forever.

Do you understand that?

It was like that for you too. Tell me.

No, Claudio. We can't do it anymore.

Never again.

I didn't think you'd be sorry.

Please, never again.

Promise me.

Fine, if that's what you want.

Coki, is that you?

Listen, I wanted to tell you, we'll meet tonight.

Yes, I can't talk now, I'm afraid they'll hear me.

At 11.

All right, don't worry, there won't be anyone.

Yes, excuse me a moment.

Hello? No, everything's fine. See you tonight.

Who? Lalla? No, she won't be there.

Don't worry.

Sure.

Bye.

Finally, bye.

Darling, why are you so late?

Sorry, I had to wait for my brother.

The car is his.

Well, it's okay.

How long can you stay here?

I don't know, an hour.

Are you sure that Alan is not here?

No, I told you no.

We're fine.

Yes, sure.

Do you like it?

How curious!

Did you sleep with the English flag on your bed?

Yes, my mother was English.

Homeland, family and love.

How strange!

But...

Always...

Always the same face. Who is she?

She's my mother.

Beautiful?

And sweet. She was so good to me.

She would make fun of me, pamper me.

No...

One moment.

What is it?

I feel looked at.

Right.

All right, now you won't be ashamed in the dark.

Come here, Cookie. Kiss me.

Claudio... Claudio...

I'll cut your hair, Koki.

Let go.

You're beautiful.

I'm not going to do that.

You're making me sleepy.

And now, what's up?

What?

Hide.

Shall we listen to a record?

I think this is the right time.

Yes, it's a good time.

And now?

Now, come on, come on!

Come on!

Come on, come on!

Come on!

Ahahahah!

What's that?

The cats.

The cats?

Yes, they're always making noise.

They always seem to be dying, they're screaming, they're making a fuss.

A fuss?

My brother makes a fuss if I don't bring him the car immediately.

Come on, you're making me wait too long.

Come on, honey, ten more minutes.

Yes, ten minutes.

Not only are you making me look pale, but you're also making me look pale.

You're making me look pale.

I'm not.

Not only are you making me look pale, but you're making me look pale too.

Come on, honey, honey.

Please, let me dress.

You're wasting a lot of time.

Yes, good.

I'm not your lover.

No, Claudio.

Come on, come on.

Cover yourself, it's better. It's cold outside.

What are you looking at?

Nothing, nothing.

Let's go.

Yes.

Lalla, help me! Please!

Claudio!

Oh, my God! I'll call a doctor!

The fire! I'll get it!

I'm better now.

Wait! I'll get you a pillow.

No, don't go in there. You mustn't.

But...

But can you feel it coming all the way to the bed?

No, not in there.

I'll go with you.

I did something very bad.

I know. But don't think about it.

I want you to lie down.

No, not in my room.

All right. I'll take you to my room.

Let's go.

Come on.

Lalla, I have to tell you something.

You must know everything.

No.

I don't care.

You must lie down.

You've had it before.

Yes, but I'm better now.

You'll have pills in your house, right?

No.

But what will you do when you get it?

Nothing. It won't last long.

And then, there won't be time.

I'll call a doctor.

No, stay here. Wait.

The doctor can't do anything to me.

Lalla, I have something to tell you.

Something important.

Look, I... I...

I wanted to make you feel better.

You have the right to be at ease.

What can someone like me give to a...

Don't look at me, or I can't say it.

What can someone like me give to a woman like you,

who lives in peace, who is at ease, who has everything in life,

who is perhaps... perhaps happy too?

Enough!

I can never be happy again.

Lalla!

But if I had given you the chance to be a little good,

if I had led you to hate me, despise me...

Claudio, you really have to tell me this.

Of course, Lalla, I have to tell you.

Because...

In this way, everything will be easier.

You will judge me for who I am.

Tonight I did something very bad, very horrible.

Because I wanted you to see, you understand?

Can you understand this?

And you...

You saw, didn't you?

And you ran to help me.

I'm going to England.

You won't see me again.

No, Claudio.

You can't do it.

You can't leave me here alone.

Please, Claudio.

But why?

It's better that I go away.

It's better.

I love you.

And it never happened to me.

And I'm not afraid.

I'm not afraid of anything.

Slowly.

Do it slowly, with love.

Don't worry, I've been doing this job for years.

The carpenter was looking for it. Why not find it?

Like this, more to the left.

How is it?

Good morning.

It's all right, professor.

Everything's fine.

You'll see, we've been working here for years.

What's the point of not knowing how to open a grave?

It's a two-room grave, intact.

It's enough to take a piece of the fresco.

Don't think about it.

By the way, didn't your wife come here this morning?

My wife?

Yes, she couldn't come.

Maybe she's looking for it upstairs.

Why don't you go up and see it?

It's a pity your wife can't see graves.

My wife knows this necropolis, that's why she didn't come.

Work hard.

I'll go and see what's going on.

What is that?

Oh, look at that!

No!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

What are you doing?

I'm working on the shirt.

Good.

Mozart, at your age, had already composed the second concerto for cello.

And you, at my age, have you read the books your father was reading?

What?

That one, Totem and Taboo, Freud.

Why, have you read it?

Yes, Lorde, the clan, the father who has all the women,

the son who, if he wants one, has to steal it from another clan.

I've already read it and thrown it away.

Yes, I understand, but Freud, it's not all here.

If you want, we can talk about it.

We can talk about it? No, it's not necessary.

What a death! There's no life in the necropolis.

One comes home after a week.

Shall we make roasted chestnuts?

Roasted chestnuts?

As I said.

Yes?

Who? Ah, right away.

Claudio?

It's for you.

Yes?

Hey, Cocchi, it's you. Hi.

At the cinema?

Well, good idea. What's up?

You won't go out tonight?

Yes, go and see.

Yes, tell me, Cocchi.

No, no, no, that's horrible, look, leave it alone.

Listen, what about the Metropol?

No, they didn't tell me much about that.

And then what? No, I saw that.

Well, it'll be for another time.

Bye.

Bye.

I'm glad you're not going. At least you can spend some time with your father.

My father, you married him, not me.

Enough, you two! I'm not your son-in-law.

But apart from that, you're right, I've neglected you too much.

You, Claudio, have always been quiet, without me.

You've always been neat.

But you, Lalla, you can't keep living like this.

With a husband who's always away, far away,

ready to neglect you for an old chimney or a grave to be discovered.

I've taken a house in Lucca, for the two of us.

I wanted to surprise you.

But now I don't think it's right.

Before I told you, I wanted to put it in order.

But today I understood that we can't wait any longer.

We have to be together, learn to get to know each other.

And this, soon.

Immediately.

I'll come to pick you up next weekend and we'll move to Lucca.

But it's not possible.

I have school.

No problem, you'll be there in 20 minutes, just like here.

I'll reach you every night, so I won't leave you alone.

Did you hear that?

What?

Like a winged wing.

No, I'm impressed by that.

A bird, a night owl, it eats the birds.

But, excuse me, don't cats do that?

Who told you? You should have seen the bird.

It points at its bird, it looks at it, it looks back and then,

zack, it hits it.

My cat does that too, it's the same.

What's wrong? Have you changed your face?

Only three days are missing.

Two and a half days, the idea is that in two days,

you'll have to be close to it, smile at it,

and sleep in that room with it, be nice, kiss it,

do whatever you want, stay in its bed all night,

for many nights.

Please, enough.

It's unbearable, do you understand?

Finish it.

Please, Claudio, please.

I can't stand it.

Neither can I.

It's an intruder.

It has nothing to do with us.

Even if it's your husband.

Even if...

Even if it's my father.

I can't stand it.

It's like...

It's like feeling like something is pulling something out of you.

But maybe it's not important.

It's not that important.

You're right.

Let's think about us.

Because...

Because there are only two days left.

And two days...

Two days are a lot.

We need an idea.

We don't go on like this.

We absolutely need an idea.

The sleeping bag.

What?

A kilo and a half of sleeping bag in the bin.

So you don't even taste it.

You fall asleep and don't wake up.

Yes, a kilo and a half of sleeping bag, who gives it to you?

Yes, it's true, it's difficult.

And then he doesn't like the bin.

We need another idea, something better.

Come on, let's go.

I told mine.

He could be a priest.

Yes, a priest.

It seems a bit difficult to me.

I could be a monk.

You, a monk?

I wouldn't say so.

Look, untie your hair.

No, no, no, no.

Down, that shawl, down.

Down, down.

Here, let it down.

Now the hair.

Untie your hair, come on.

Here.

Like this?

Like this.

Now change position, on your knees.

Change position.

All right.

Here, on your knees, like this.

Good.

Ah, beautiful.

Yes?

Perfect, like this.

Wait.

Like this?

Yes.

Shawl?

Very good, very good, the shawl.

Stop like this, stop.

Stop.

Ah, I could die.

Here, this, yes.

Now stop, stop.

Stop.

It's a long thing.

What thing, to die?

No, it's a thing of a moment, Lalla, a moment.

But no, not to die, to rest.

Beautiful, beautiful, stop, so don't move.

Here.

The umbrella.

What umbrella?

You don't understand, let's break the cable of the umbrella.

We attach it to the bed that is made of iron,

and to the first umbrella we are in place,

it remains dry.

Yes, let's meet the good season.

Ready, ready.

Yes, yes, yes.

It's a good thing, it's a good thing.

Yes, yes, yes.

Not to heat the water. The electric stove makes short circuit.

So?

Since the water is a good conductor of current, it remains there,

flared, dry.

We put the stove back, and then we don't even have it.

We should buy one.

Or borrow it.

How long is it?

20 hours.

No, 19.

19 hours and then...

So, you won't say anything?

No.

Why?

You don't understand that we're joking.

It's a game, they're all jigs.

I... I...

I just have the idea that you'll have to go back with him,

that you'll have to smile, that you'll have to be his wife forever.

I see... I'll do something, I know.

No, don't talk like that, please.

I'll think about it.

I'll do something.

What? You'll marry him?

Or you'll kill him with lightning?

If you don't believe me, you too.

See, I'm not joking.

I... I don't talk much, but you'll see.

You'll see what?

In a world where a woman like you

goes to bed with a man like my father, I won't stay.

No, Claudio, I won't say that.

What do you want me to do?

To watch you both happy and content?

Maybe even to shake your hands?

Claudio, please, you mustn't say that.

I... I don't know what to do.

I'm desperate.

Yes.

Desperate women do things seriously,

it's in the newspaper every day.

And what do they do?

They kill their husbands, in any way.

With the poison of the mice, with the scissors,

even with the hammer.

But... but how can you think that I...

Of course, you know I don't think so.

Oh, Claudio, I'm so scared.

You're silly.

But... I'll do what you want.

I don't know, tell me what I have to do.

How long is it?

19 hours.

Now, a little less.

Lalla.

Lalla, the cigarette!

What?

The cigarette!

What?

Look, come and see.

Look, look.

Be careful.

What are you doing?

Careful.

Do you understand?

No, what?

The lightning.

The lightning?

Look, come and see.

But I'm sleepy.

Thank you.

We always had it in our hands.

Why?

It's true.

I sent it out.

Even today?

Yes, of course.

I was telling you, we always had it in our hands.

What?

The lightning, the half-sleeping man, the bronchopulmonary,

yes, what we were looking for.

But...

This is the pool.

The lightning?

I'll show you now.

Look.

Here, the lightning.

It's a game I always played with my mother.

We put a sponge here.

Now, take this towel.

Yes.

Yes, put it here.

Here?

Yes, keep it open and watch.

Claudio, what are you doing?

You'll see now, wait a moment.

Lalla!

What do I have to do here?

Look, watch out!

Claudio, what does this mean?

Did you see what a game?

My mother always did it to me when she took a bath.

She called me, I punched the wall and she did it.

I thought the sponge would fall.

But now, instead of the sponge, we'll put the foam on the towel.

And I should give you the signal?

No, you should just make sure that the plug is inserted.

Like this.

Just this?

Yes, just.

Ah, who of you takes the bath first in the morning?

I take the bath in the evening.

Always?

Always.

Good.

Do you realize what we're talking about?

Yes.

With him inside?

Oh, well, if you don't want to...

I'll go.

If you don't want to...

You're free.

Anyway, I've already told you, get ready.

I won't stay in the middle of you two.

How long will it take?

A few hours.

So now, come.

Let's not waste any more time.

Go, go, go!

Elvira!

Where did she go?

Elvira?

Luigi!

Hi! I didn't expect you so early.

Elvira isn't here?

No, it's her day off. Do you need anything?

She's here too, she can do whatever she wants.

Yes, she's a bit comfortable. But I'm here.

Nothing...

It's just that one comes home and would like...

Would you like something to drink?

Yes, the usual.

Thank you.

And Claudio?

I don't know, I haven't seen him today.

Maybe he's in his room.

Lalla...

It must have been terrible for you to live like this.

It's my fault. But we'll get back together tomorrow.

I promise.

Tomorrow?

Yes.

Yes.

Luca's apartment is ready.

Why wait?

I'm tired of seeing you once a week.

And then you'll see, it's a quiet residential area, very quiet, very green.

And we'll live alone.

That's what matters, right?

But Claudio, what will he do alone?

Enough with Claudio!

He...

He'll live his life.

Now...

Let's think about us.

I'm sorry, I really don't feel well.

I've decided to leave tomorrow.

Luca's apartment is ready.

I think we should talk a little, don't you think?

Yes.

Are you going?

I told you, you can't get old at the table.

The coffee is ready, Professor.

Thank you.

Do you need anything else?

No, thank you.

Elvira?

Yes?

Would you mind telling my son if he could come for a moment?

Sir, he's not in his room.

Should I call him?

No.

It's nothing.

Lalla, can you hear me?

Yes, Claudio, what is it?

We'll agree for tomorrow morning, then.

Lalla, did you hear me?

Yes, I heard you.

I asked you, do you always agree for tomorrow morning?

Yes, but it's really necessary.

Don't worry, you don't have to do anything.

Just remember to put the pin in the funnel.

It's already in.

Good.

Lalla, I love you so much, you know?

I love you too.

You're very important to me.

Very much.

What's going on?

Claudio! Lalla!

What happened? Who screamed?

Why don't you answer?

Hello?

Dad, I really needed to talk to you.

Yes, how are you?

I'm fine.

You know, the house is empty, very empty.

Yes, I know, I know.

I can imagine.

Listen, I think we should talk a little, the two of us.

Yes, yes, of course, we should talk finally.

Dad, why don't you get married?

There's her memory
