SOUTHERN STORM

Wait. Let's see... Can we start from the blast, the little wind?

Where does the movement come from?

What does it carry?

Is it the Wind? Is it the Earth?

No, no, no! Don't stop. Keep going, keep going!

See Andy's cue and you follow from there.

Let's start over from the same spot. Shall we?

Do you want to tell us something else? Any indication?

So that we understand what is not working...

It's just... I don't know.

All of these had their pre-employment screening?

Yes, all of them were O.K.

Marta Benitez stole a pair of socks

in her previous job.

I wouldn't risk it.

Losing a job for a pair of socks...

What a tool, right?

"Martin Ibañez".

He lends money... He rarely gets it back.

His wife is devastated.

These two will definitely sue you as soon as they can.

"Ismael Fuentes".

He used to deal tranquilizers to his co-workers.

His girlfriend signed the prescriptions for him.

"Mariano Etchegoyen".

I had coffee with his wife.

She told me that he has a problem...

Line!

The wife invited you out for coffee?

Don't make fun of me, Villafañez.

How did you convince the wife to open up to you?

Tell me.

I'll share a secret with you.

The world is full with people...

Who have a strong desire to talk away.

Esteban Pierri...

For several decades, marine biologists have tried to establish the age and

longevity of the mysterious Greenland shark.

This shark is the main predator of the Arctic Sea.

Some scientists suspect that one of these specimens...

could be the only living witness to Columbus' journey...

It's one of the species that lives the longest.

Some clams are up to 250 years old…

So, in a delicious plate...

You have reached the "Hound" Villafañez.

Leave your phone number and subject. Make it short.

Hello Villafañez. This is Ricardo Zelarrayan.

Do you anything for me? What's next?

Do we meet? Do you call me?

Besides, who uses an answering machine?

Villafañez.

We were supposed to meet two hours ago.

I am going to walk two blocks. You can follow me.

How did it go these first days?

Good.

All quiet.

She goes from the apartment to the theater...

…sometimes she stops at the Zoo.

Nothing odd.

At the Zoo?

Yes, she rests there for a while...

But it's nothing to worry about.

What does she do there?

She looks at the birds, she cries.

She seems depressed.

But I guess that's something you already know, right?

Did she meet anyone?

Nope.

What about the theater? Anything aside from the rehearsals?

Nothing either...

You're giving me nothing. No discoveries!

Neither do you!

You have to be frank with me.

What do you expect from your wife?

A lover?

Whatever there is!

ELVIRA and I, we are splitting-up.

Oh!

So you need to understand?

I want to know the consequences.

I need information to be ahead of her.

I want to see if I can get her back.

Anything!

She had a long career before we met.

A quite successful one from what I could gather.

Let's do something.

Give me... One more week.

And that'll be it for today.

ELVIRA SCHULZ' retrospective

So?

I couldn't make it!

What was that?

Serve!

Mine!

Get it!

I go!

My ball!

Right on!!

Focus Tiny, focus!

What a class Hound!

You've got to every corner! You mad dog!

Every ball!

I'll get going Ruben.

Otherwise I'm going to be late, you know?

- All right...

Congratulation guys, you played very well.

- Thank you!

Bye.

Call me if anything comes up!

Let me eat! I mean... Leave me some food.

I love you!

Explain this to me please.

Who would even think...

wasting an entire hour watching us play?

That woman is hiding something.

She's going to screw up Tiny. She's going to screw him up.

That girl has another man. I know what I'm telling you.

But how sure can you be of that?

I am absolutely sure.

How so? Are you a machine?

Yes, I am a machine.

Do you know Ying-Yang?

Yes, Skinny. The two little Chinese fish...

One looks to one side... the other looks to the other.

We all, internally, have two little fish,

One is female and one is male…

Flamingos.

For these colorful and inseparable birds...

this meeting is not a competition, but a show.

There are 136 combinations of dance moves

that a flamingo can perform during courtship.

Some of the courtship dances are complex.

Research has shown that it takes many years to learn the difficult moves.

The complexity of the Flamingo's courtship increases with age.

Flamingos have a stunning color vision.

Its varieties of pink are impossible to distinguish to the human eye.

In those times, its colors become even more intense...

It's true that in Classical Greece was like that...

Maybe there is some kind of

return to those times.

I mean, this return to...

- to polygamy,

to polytheism...

She had a long career before we met.

To polytheism...

He is polyamorous...

Is it the Wind? Is it the Earth?

No, poli means many in Greek.

many in Greek.

Move over.

You have reached the "Hound" Villafañez.

Leave your phone number and subject. Make it short.

She has rehearsals every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

On Fridays she goes out with friends.

The other days she is away and doesn't make it home until very late.

What does she do?

Listen, money is not an issue. I need you to feed me any info.

If you tell me what she is doing, in detail, I can act ahead of her.

Because I understand her. And I might get her back.

RETIRO TRAIN TERMINAL STATION

Two weeks from now is Dorita's birthday. She turns 60.

It will be a big party. She said you're invited.

Ruben said he's coming...

You will join us right? I pick you up.

You know what Skinny?

What is it Hound?

Forget it, it's nothing.

Come on! What is it?

I feel... If I were, lighter.

But don't listen to me. I don't know what I'm saying.

Now, hurry up and close. I am hungry. Let's go.

I don't understand what's going on with Elvira.

She's acting strange.

She comes late...

or sometimes she doesn't even make it home.

What did you see? Did you find anything?

Are you there? Do you hear me?

Do you hear this message?

Villafañez are you there?

"Ring Side", A film by Marie Louise Alemann

Every morning, as the day begun, I used to comb her hair.

Very calmly, like a ceremony. - Can't you see that I'm desperate?

I look for her and I can't find her.

Elvira left our home. I need to see her!

I need to hear from her! - Anything Villafañez! I'll go after her!

I haven't seen her for days... I don't know if it's the play...

Or what is it...

I haven't done anything to her Villafañez!

I swear I didn't do anything... - Elvira...

Elvira...

Where have you been???

Where are YOU???

I need to talk to you!!

Coming, coming!

Mine!

Come on Jorge, wake up! Come on! Let's go!

Skinny...

You being such a smart guy, well read...

What... What do you know about dance?

No, I... I like Heavy Metal, see?

The Art of dance is not my thing...

It's true that in Ancient Greece, some dances were forbidden.

The ballerinas went into trance and no one knew if they'd come back.

Or what they were thinking. But... why do you ask?

Is it the case of the old crippled you left out of job?

Is it the case of the old lady you pushed to the streets?

No, nothing. Drop it.

Go on quick! Pull to the corner!

- There? - Right dude!

Grab it there!!

Hurry up! Hurry!

- There you go!

Go, go, to the side!

Hurry up the rain is here!!

Who are you?

What are you doing in my house?

When is your birthday?

And what do you care? Who are you?

Surely you don't remember anything that happened?

Surely I don't remember you!

That's logical, because it's the first time you see me.

My name is Jorge.

I was going to the next pier...

And I saw a branch fell on your head...

I wanted to help you.

Do you live alone in this house?

No, no. I don't live here.

But yes, it's my place.

Well, excuse me for invading your retreat.

Well, I imagine you didn't do it on purpose.

I guess I should be grateful.

Here you are. For the boat ride.

I don't need money, thanks.

How long was I asleep?

Some...

…forty minutes, more or less.

Quite a lot, right?

No. It depends.

But I'm fine now. I'm fine, I'm fine.

Here, look.

Look me in the eyes. I'm going to do a test

that a physician friend of mine once taught me...

when I hit my head really hard.

Come on. Raise your arms,

With your right hand touch the tip of your nose.

Now, with the left hand.

Stick out your tongue.

Up.

Down.

To one side.

To the other.

Now tell me your name.

Elvira Schulz.

You are perfectly fine.

Do you feel any pain?

Yes, it hurts here. A bit here.

A bit... much.

That's good.

That's a good sign.

Have a seat.

In an hour or so, you're going to have a bruise, and that...

It will calm us.

A bruise is... protection.

In an hour?

Do you plan to stay here all that time?

There's no need, eh?

I'm fine now.

And tell me, what do you want me to do?

To walk on water like Christ?

Besides...

I'm all wet.

Oh, yes. You're right.

Wait. I'll be right back.

Will the flood last long?

It depends... If the wind changes...

Did you see me dancing?

No, no. Actually, I came from the...

from the back, from the lots there...

Are you a ballerina?

I was... Im a choreographer now.

Ah...

What about you? What do you do?

Let me guess.

Do you work in Real Estate? - No.

Are you a wood house builder?

No. Nothing like that.

Lawyer?

Not near.

Firefighter?

No, not at all...

I'm a detective.

Detective?

Yes, a private detective.

Now I call myself "Practical Consultant"

It has more to do with the times...

and it doesn't raise as many suspicion.

Did you expect something else?

Detective, are you serious?

For real.

Is your job dangerous?

No. The people I usually follow

are not dangerous.

Often the dangerous ones are those that hire me.

And don't you feel guilty?

Because... In the end you are some sort of snitch.

No. No, not guilt.

See? I have a theory.

I think that when people...

when they make a big mistake, they actually want to get caught.

It's usually all there, in plain sight.

Sometimes it's not.

Sometimes I can't find anything.

I show up just then... When everything went off the rails.

When my clients can't take it anymore.

More than a snitch. I would be a kind of...

facilitator.

And those things that people hide,

and that you discover...?

The hidden truths that you "facilitate"

According to you... What kind of secrets are? Lovers?

Yes... But more often than not they are more boring.

Usually I deal with...

Conflicts between employers and workers...

Bureaucracy, inheritance, mortgages.

Legal matters.

How about you? What side are you on?

Next to the one who pays.

Are you done?

Yes.

You got me thinking... What you said yesterday.

What?

In the secrets that you "release."

I keep thinking about that branch. And then the fall, and its secret.

I think it's only a tree that fell.

With such a storm!

My mother told me I was born during a southern storm.

She couldn't make it to the hospital, because the whole city was flooding.

So I was born on the way there.

I know the southern storm had an effect on me.

Except I am not so sure how...

Shouldn't you get that? It's been a day already.

They could be worried.

It's my husband... He's used to me being away.

I am having a lot of rehearsals. But he's not being generous...

Shouldn't you tell him what happened?

No, we don't share everything. That's our agreement.

Besides, we are separating.

How about you Jorge?

Do you have a girlfriend? Are you married?

No, I live alone.

I like getting up at any hour. I have lunch and dine late...

I like listening to music loud. That's what I like.

I owe you.

You saved my life.

You have reached the "Hound" Villafañez.

Leave your phone number and subject. Make it short.

Where have you been Hound? Skinny here...

Tomorrow is the party, remember? I'll pick you up!

We are now covering the Southern Storm...

These are images from the Delta...

The river has flooded the area.

It caused these levels of water and flooding.

Some houses covered as well as the streets, squares and other areas.

As a consequence of the wind and the river rising.

Also the sidewalks are flooded...

The water reached some of the houses...

So Villafañez?

What do you have for me?

Elvira bought a house in the Delta.

The property is under her name.

Does she go alone?

Yes.

Every time?

Always by herself.

Is it a big house?

It's an old house...

But it's big, indeed.

Where did she get the money?

If you want I can find out.. I keep digging.

No, there's no need. This is enough.

So there's no lover...

No.

I thought she was seeing a dancer from her company.

If she bought that house, I'm entitled to half of it.

You miserable...

What?

You heard me.

Just you preaching morals?

Let's do something...

If you think I am so miserable...

You shouldn't take my money.

Do you wanna give it back?

No.

Hound!

You've never told us anything about this ballerina.

She is not a ballerina! She is a choreographer.

I am telling you now! Cut it out!

You go ahead! Can't you see it's green?

We are not judging.

I like seeing you with a woman after so long...

- Is that her? - She is super tall!

What are you up to Hound? What is she doing with us?

Hi!

Hi!

Hi!

I didn't know it was a costume party!

Neither did I.

This is Ruben.

- Hi! - How are you?

And this is Skinny...

Hi!

Hi!

How are you?

Happy birthday!

Dorita!

Hi Jorge!

Hello Dorita so long!

So long! Happy birthday!

This is Elvira.

Hi! Happy birthday!

It's Elvira!

Hello? Elvira?

Sure... Of course!

This Saturday?

Yes, all right.

Should I bring anything?

OK then.

Of course, see you there.

Bye.

What is it?

She invited me to the Delta.

What for?

I don't know.

Perhaps she just wants to see you.

Perhaps you showed her a new world. And now she wants to discover it.

Here. Take this one.

It's my best umbrella.

Elvira!

Elvira!

What the fuck are you doing here?

Don't tell me you are following Elvira.

No, I'm not following anyone.

She invited me over for lunch...

But I guess she won't be showing up.

She invited you for lunch?

You're such a moron that she found out who you are?

How about you and that stupid bouquet?

I know, say no more.

She called you over the phone... And she told you to get back together.

Then she invited you here, to spend some time alone.

So you got the most ridiculous flowers!

I'm gonna beat the shit out of you Villafañez!

- Get over here!
