All language subtitles for Sentimental (2020)

Thank you.

I didn't hear you come in.
How'd it go today?

Okay.

Hardly... Exam day.

You didn't get my message
on WhatsApp?

-I'm out of battery. What did you want?
-To buy some wine.

Did I miss something? What is all this?

All this?
All these are snacks.

-Meatballs?
-Yeah, something to snack on.

Something to nibble on...

Are we expecting someone?

-Our neighbours.
-Our neighbors?

Yes, I told you yesterday. Don't you remember?

Of course, yes.

I remember very well that
you wanted to invite them.

Not that you had already invited them.

There is a significant difference
in the tense of the verb, Anita.

Really?

There is a significant difference
in the tense of the verb?

Yes, there is a significant difference
in the tense of the verb.

One day, I'll record you,
so you can hear what you're saying, Julio.

Okay, I'm sorry.

I am very tired
and I have 50 papers to correct.

Call them and tell them
we'll get together another day, okay?

No, it's too late.

You always find an excuse.
Six months, we owe them an invitation.

Why do we owe them an invitation?

Says who? Where is it written?

Calm down, it's not written anywhere.
Don't get mad.

I'm not angry.

-Do you know why, my love?
-I have no idea.

They helped us a lot
when we renovated the house.

We promised that
we'd show them the apartment...

...and that we would call them,
as soon as it was ready.

And that was half a year ago.

They look nice, don't they?

-They are boring. They always wave.
-Boring...

"They're boring, always waving"?

Yes, Anna, you know what I mean. We need
stop, talk to them.

They ask you how it's going.

So do they
normal people do, Julio.

They show some interest
in living beings.

-You know what bothers me the most?
-What, Julio?

I live in this house too,
if you don't remember.

Of course I remember.

If you wanted to call the neighbors,
you could ask me.

-No, I don't think so. And you know why?
-Why, darling?

You'd say no, like every time
when I make a suggestion.

-Anna?
-Yes...

What is this?

This is a carpet.

-You bought it for the neighbors?
-No, because the other one was too old.

You got it.
because the neighbors are coming.

-You like it?
-It depends.

-You like it, Julio?
-Depends on how much it cost.

Do you go away, come back in
and start over?

-Yes, of course.
-Good.

Hello, darling!

What are you doing? How are you?

How was your day?

Oh, my God! What is all this?

Yes, I remember very well...

...that you said you wanted
to call our neighbors.

Not that you had already invited them.

There is a significant difference
in the tense of the verb, Anita.

Big difference.

-We need to put up curtains.
-I don't like curtains.

I don't like it
to be seen by the neighbors.

Julio...

We can make a deal,
have a good time tonight?

Yes, of course.

And the first thing I'm going to do,
is to thank them...

...for every time they kept us
the elevator door open.

And for that time
for lending us the hammer.

It was a hammer, wasn't it?

Yes, it was a hammer!

And don't worry,
I'll make sure they leave soon...

...to run to the roof
with your friend, the telescope.

I like to look at the stars.

But you don't like it
staying at home.

Today is Friday.
We shouldn't fight.

You know why I like it
to go to the roof?

-Why, darling?
-So I can smoke.

They won't let me in the house,
in case he gets the carpet dirty.

It's for your daughter,
who has asthma.

Indeed, we have a daughter.
I had forgotten.

You had to take
the most expensive cold cuts?

We couldn't just offer
chips and peanuts?

No, because I'm not stingy
like you.

In the end, we don't get away with it.
We're gonna fight.

-Anna?
-Tell me.

About our daughter and
her future mental health...

...I guess you don't mind.
to bring up the subject with the neighbors.

-Julio, we have discussed this.
-What, dear?

-that we wouldn't tell them anything!
-Yes, but our daughter is suffering.

All of this can cause her
a psychological problem.

And become a porn actress
or a nun, even worse!

Can we discuss this calmly?

Since they are coming to our house,
it's the perfect time!

And while we're eating the good cold cuts,
we'll bring up the subject.

We mentioned it once
and in the elevator. Remember?

Very well. I also remember that
we decided not to tell them anything.

Because we believed that
it wouldn't get any worse.

Last Saturday,
the paintings on the walls were shaking.

-Yes, they were shaking. Please, Julio.
-In the end, we'll laugh, you'll see.

-They're very nice, aren't they?
-Julio!

You're going to say something important.

We must all make an effort
to live together.

To accept others,
although it is often difficult.

Go ahead, I'm listening.

We need to be more tolerant
with our neighbors, our comrades.

-Otherwise...
-You know what?

You watch a lot of soap operas.

Are you blackmailing me?

You're blackmailing me because you know
I'm not comfortable with that.

Look, Anita...

If our neighbors would turn on the music
at the top of the stairs at 4:00 in the morning...

...and wake us up,
wouldn't it make sense to tell them?

This is the same thing.

You threaten to tell them
when they get here?

New shirt?

Yeah, new.

Very nice. It matches the carpet.
Did you get them at the same store?

-From next door. I thought it looked good on me.
-Very.

You look great in shirts.
You know it.

You could
tell me more often.

You're very beautiful.

I know. Thank you.

Anna, we're opening a wine
and we'll start all over again?

Yes, it will do us good.

But call the neighbors first
and tell them not to come.

-You know what I think about all this?
-What, Anna?

That we envy them deep down.

-Who?
-Our neighbours.

Our neighbors? Why?

Each time
I hear her gasps...

...every time he squeals like a cat,
just before it's over...

...that's what I feel, jealousy.

That's why I don't want to tell them anything.

I'm glad that at least
some people are having a good time!

Oh, great! So now we're jealous
our Neanderthal neighbors.

Fantastic!

And your daughter?
You were worried about her.

We should get her earplugs
so she can sleep?

What to do when she wakes up scared
because she's shaking on the ceiling...

...but it doesn't come to us...

...because he thinks you're screaming
and I'm salivating like a gorilla?

What are we going to do, Anita?

Having a good orgasm
is harder than you think.

If she has it, let her enjoy it.

Now I really need to drink.

All right, drink up. Come on, come on!

Men don't understand it,
but they do.

It is not easy
to have a good orgasm!

Look...

If we tell them we can hear them
and that it bothers us...

...every time they fuck each other
...and she's going to end...

...he'll see our faces.

Our faces!

It'll be like sitting
in their bed...

...we look at them
and we scold them.

She may not feel such an orgasm
ever again, and I won't forgive myself.

Is that funny to you?

Yes, Anna. Sometimes,
you seem funny to me.

But you won't convince me.

These are very deep thoughts.
I have other theories, you know.

You'll tell me another time.
They'll be down any minute.

We're not going to tell them anything today,
please. Some other day.

We should see them again
so?

No way! You'll end up
buy another rug.

You used to care.

-For what?
-For us.

We cared about each other.

Don't start your little game again.
to make me feel guilty.

They are rude, show-offs!

You want me to believe
that they don't know we can hear them?

We must also feel responsible
for their orgasms?

They shout and sigh
because they shit themselves for us.

Period.

So I also make noise at night,
I know very well that I'm disturbing.

They should go to a hotel and get laid.
But no! And you know why?

Because they like to be listened to.
It irritates them.

We must tolerate them in our home
without even broaching the subject?

I'm tired of being polite.

And excuse me,
but you didn't used to be like this.

Anita, you weren't that concerned
what other people thought.

You win.
I'll tell them not to come.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

What's your excuse?

None. I will say that
we're fighting like we always do.

Sounds believable.

If they are not gone
in ten minutes...

...I'm going to receive an urgent phone call...
and I'll leave.

-July?
-Yes?

I'm nervous.
Let's call a truce.

-For ten minutes. Of course.
-And listen to me once in a while.

-Can I touch you?
-Yes.

-Where do you want me to touch you?
-Wherever you want. One gentle gesture.

Okay. Anytime you want, just give me a wave
and I'll touch your ass.

Okay.

I'm opening.

-Hello! It's you! How do you do?
-Very well.

-Hi, Anna.
-We're so glad you're here!

Julio, look, they're here!

We didn't interrupt anything, did we?
Because you weren't opening...

No! But why? Of course not.

You sure? If you prefer,
we'll be back in a bit.

Of course not. Come in.

Laura was saying that you were making love,
but it looks like you were fighting.

Salva always says
whatever comes into his head.

Indeed, we were talking.

-We were discussing a topic.
-A controversial issue.

-Do you like controversial issues?
-We love them.

Come in, then. Come on.

How do you like the apartment?
You hadn't seen it until now.

Since you didn't invite us...

Very beautiful. Congratulations.
You have very good taste.

Thank you.

It's bigger than ours.
The energy is circulating.

You're kidding! Where?

Everywhere, Julio. You feel
that the apartment is loved.

Very much, I love it very much.

And I'm very proud
of what we did.

-Sorry. I was moved.
-It's okay, Anita.

Don't worry.
Anna is very touched.

-Me too. I'm crying and...
-You're shouting.

-A lot.
-I imagined it.

I brought you my speciality.
A recipe from India.

-You shouldn't have. Thank you.
-It's spicy and aphrodisiac.

Aphrodisiac! How nice!

Come with me.

-Good! How's it going?
-Very well.

-Sit down, Laura.
-Thank you.

-Your daughter?
-She is very happy.

I mean, where is it?

She's staying with her cousins.

You see they have a piano?

-Yeah, why?
-We hear it often.

-Does it bother you?
-No.

Not at all. On the contrary, I like it very much.
Who's playing?

Martina, our daughter.

And Julio. He's a musician.

Really? You play the piano?

Now and then...
Only when he asks me to.

-And what kind of music do you play?
-I'm sure you don't know it.

Classic!
Beethoven is his passion.

Sometimes, I think that
she'd rather marry him.

-Are you famous? Are you on Google?
-Only in "Contacts".

You're doing a concert? We love music.
We could come and see you.

Julio teaches at the conservatory now.

In fact, everyone...

What a beautiful carpet!

-Really?
-Yes, I love carpets.

Me too. On the contrary,
Julio, not so much.

No? Why not? They're cool.

You can take a nap
and...

He's got it, Salva.

No, I didn't understand. Please.
What else can you do on the carpet?

-Fuck you.
-Exactly.

-Salva!
-Tell me.

-I didn't ask you. Would you like some wine?
-Of course.

-Do you smoke in the house?
-Yes, he smoked. No problem.

-Come more often.
-Whenever you want.

-Julio, will you serve the wine?
-Do you have an ashtray?

No need. Throw the ashes on the carpet,
like we did. Right, darling?

-Julio is a joker.
-I noticed.

But only when we have guests.

Don't worry if it catches fire
the carpet. Salva will put it out.

-What do you mean?
-Salva's a fireman, honey.

-My whole life.
-Fireman!

Chief Warrant Officer.
I'm one of the ones giving the orders now.

Firefighter, Chief Warrant Officer.
Now I understand.

-What?
-No, it's just...

I feel safer knowing
that we have a fireman for a neighbor.

In what sense?

In case of fire.

Or if the apartment building is going to be torn down
because of strange vibrations.

What kind of vibrations?

Laura... You have to come in.
through the store.

-I came by the other day, but you were gone.
-I would have been out.

I really liked a skirt,
but I thought...

It's okay.
It doesn't matter at all.

I get very nervous when we have
guests. Silly, huh?

-No nonsense, Anna.
-No?

We are all vulnerable
to the criticism of others.

-Me, too.
-I'm sorry, what did you say?

It affects us all very much
the opinion of others.

He's a psychologist.
And a very good one.

Are you a psychologist?

What an interesting combination.
A psychologist and a fireman.

It's very... Here.

-One cup.
-We don't have ashtrays.

That is, we have one on the roof,
because he likes to be alone.

Yes, Julio is a great friend of his.
He goes upstairs to see how he's doing, they're talking.

You're very strong, aren't you?
Full of energy.

-Exactly.
-You don't see it at first glance.

In the elevator,
you're always so silent...

-The elevator makes me dizzy.
-Some ham?

-I am a vegetarian.
-I'm not.

Let me show you
the rest of the apartment before...?

Of course.

This way.

-You're not coming?
-I know, darling.

-Don't smoke in your daughter's room.
-Thank you very much.

Don't say anything interesting
without us.

-We will say what the neighbours say.
-Of course.

We also changed the layout.
It was Julio's grandparents' house.

He slept in this room.
And now it's my daughter's.

Here is the bathroom.

Look.

-Cool, huh? I like it a lot.
-Yeah, nice.

And this is our bedroom.

What a big bed!

-They lose a lot of people.
-Yes, a lot!

-Can I sit down?
-Of course, please.

-Very comfortable. And it doesn't creak.
-Not at all.

-This is important.
-very.

We have to buy a mattress.
Ours is...

What?

Very battered.

It's empty...
Don't you want more wine?

-Better not.
-No?

No, I get drunk very easily
and then nothing stops me.

-Don't you get that?
-Yeah, me too.

Julio can drink a lot
and not lose control.

-I like that.
-What?

Losing control now and then.
You need that too, don't you?

I love to dance.
But Julio doesn't. So...

-I love dancing.
-It happens.

-Really? So I dumped Laura.
-By dancing? How jealous!

-Are you jealous?
-A lot.

I have to go to the bathroom.

Let's go.

-Here.
-Thank you.

You had other things
to do tonight. Right, Julio?

Is it that obvious?

Don't worry. So, at least,
we'll get to know each other a little better.

-Yes, it's difficult in the elevator.
-In the elevator?

Yeah, it's awkward.

To be so close to each other,
each looking away...

-Are you ashamed...
-Yes, the elevator is...

How long have you been with Salva?

-Two years.
-Two years.

-I was married before.
-I'm sorry.

See? This comment,
you would never make that comment in an elevator.

Indeed, not in the elevator.

I was lucky,
I met Salva one night.

And after three weeks,
I came to live with you.

-And you look serious and harmless.
-I was.

But not anymore.

Not anymore.

It's like we're getting to know each other better
than we really do.

Yes, indeed.

Deep down, almost
we don't know each other.

So are the neighbours.

Yeah, but you don't find
that sometimes...

...with some people
it only takes a look to...

-What?
-To connect.

Yes, it can.

Let's smoke.
I feel like smoking!

I don't smoke,
I just take a puff now and then.

This is where Julio hides them.

He thinks I don't know,
but I know it very well.

Thank you.

An ashtray, because the cup
is cheesy. We have an ashtray.

Is it over there?

-There it is...
-Let me help you.

-I got you.
-Thank you, Salva.

-Okay, Salva.
-No, go ahead.

What to do with the ladder
when you have a fireman in the house?

Thank you.

Laura, we haven't tried
your specialty.

Okay, um...

Julio, make them sit down.
and I'll bring the service.

You heard her.
Here, she's in charge.

Salva, can you help me?

Plates for the four of us.

Have you met
the new neighbors in the first?

I met them at the entrance.

They seemed very polite.

Be aware
the basic rules of living together.

Julio!

-Tell me, honey.
-Why don't you put on some music?

Since we have to...

-Well, what do you feel like hearing?
-Country.

Music, I mean.

Country. We really like country.
We go to a bar and dance.

Come on, it's a lot of fun.

I don't think Julio
likes dancing. Right, Julio?

Actually, no...

The truth is that
I don't like dancing very much.

Let's not put on any music.

So we can talk about
about important issues.

You don't look well, honey.
Are you all right?

Yeah, it's just...
I'm a little nervous.

If you're not feeling well,
we'll come back another time.

Not now, when we were about to discuss
about controversial issues.

Let's go sit down.

Thank you, Laura.

-I'll serve.
-Thank you, darling.

I'll leave this here...
We'll try your specialty.

-We are very glad you invited us.
-Alas. So much for helping us!

Did we give you the hammer back?

-What hammer?
-Wine! Pour me some, Salva.

-Sure.
-Thank you.

-Here.
-Let's see if you like it...

And bon appétit, as I always say!

-Very tasty.
-Delicious!

Very tasty.

But we're here tonight,
we'd like to tell you something.

Well, well... What a coincidence!

-What coincidence?
-What?

-A stupid thing.
-And so are we.

-And you, what?
-We'd like to tell you something.

-Really? You first, then.
-No, please, you.

-No, please, you first.
-No, Anna...

-Please, you first.
-No, it's nothing...

-Can we start...
-You!

You first,
who are the guests.

Salva...

We wanted to apologize to you.

-Really?
-Why?

We know we may have disturbed you
several times.

-We?
-Mostly at night.

-When?
-When we have sex.

-You?
-Yes, now and then we make love.

Of course, it's normal.

Normal, now...

Sometimes, we do
more noise than usual.

We try to be discreet, but
it's hard not to lose control.

Especially if you're a firefighter.

If we went too far sometimes,
we're sorry if we disturbed you.

Not at all. Right, Julio?

Anyway,
it happens to everyone...

But we never listen to you.

No? Why not?

-Why?
-Because we are below you.

That's why.

Sometimes, they move
all the furniture in our house.

That's what happens to us too.
The other day, I found the piano in the sink.

We thought that tonight is
the right time to apologize.

Don't worry at all,
we don't hear anything. Right, Julio?

No, never. I fall asleep passed out.

You're lying.

-Me?
-He?

Yes, you're a liar.

What are you saying, Salva?

He's saying that we know
that you called us one night.

-We? When?
-It's been about a month.

-Three times.
-Three times?

-Laura, it was a very active night.
-Oh, yeah?

Your number
was recorded in memory.

And when you called us to come,
I noticed it was the same number.

Yeah, you invited us and
when we picked up, you hung up.

What a shame!

-No, Anna...
-It's our fault.

Please, it was our fault.

Why didn't you tell me
you were going to call them?

I was on the verge
to call the police.

Don't look at me like that, darling.

We've been talking for months
about them and their orgasms.

Are you talking about my orgasms?

Well...

We are a couple
who talks a lot.

We discuss, we think together...

-Maybe we mentioned it once.
-Not once, Anita.

Every night.

He didn't want to tell you.

But we can discuss everything
as neighbors.

-With us, absolutely!
-Without any problem.

He was afraid that if we told you...

...you would cease to have
those terrible orgasms.

Actually, Laura doesn't have
the awesome orgasms.

-No?
-Carolina.

-Who is Carolina?
-A friend.

-And he lives with you?
-No, he lives in the mountains, with Santiago.

-And who is Santiago?
-A friend.

Santiago is huge
and breathes very heavily.

It's like the buffalo.
Maybe you've heard of him.

-Who?
-The buffalo, dear. The buffalo.

If one night you heard
more noise than usual...

...is because, sometimes,
we have group sex.

And that, yes.

Occasionally, no...

If it's occasional, that's fine.
Right, Anita?

Yes, if it's occasional,
it's okay... It's all good.

-Let's go smoke!
-Please.

Let's smoke.

The next neighbours meeting
can be held at your home.

Our sofa opens up
and becomes a round bed.

-Very practical.
-Of course, we did it on the carpet, but...

You can take ours.
It's new.

The carpet is uncomfortable.
Mostly for some stops.

I can imagine...

Well, with Santiago
and Carolina...

Yes, the four of us
do a lot of frames.

-Career?
-Often, other couples come along.

-For variety, huh?
-Always known and trusted people.

Now, I'm really quiet.

We try new things,
we learn... We're having fun.

It's one of those things
that we don't do out of prejudice.

But if we tried them, we'd like it
and we'd eat glue.

-You're stuck.
-You're definitely eating glue.

I think it's starting to get to you
the aphrodisiac food.

We exchange comrades.

-Exchange...
-Other times, we have a threesome.

-Three people...
-Yes, or we're having an orgy.

-All together...
-A selective variety.

Yes, but never more than eight.

Once, there were ten of us.

-Carolina had a birthday.
-Yes, it was her birthday.

What's the harm?
A birthday is a birthday.

We try not to make any noise,
but it's hard sometimes.

-And with so many people...
-Of course.

Indeed, Carolina is
very exaggerated when she comes.

Even when it doesn't end...
Carolina likes sex a lot.

Carolina, huh?

-Yes?
-Did you want to say something?

No, no, no, no, no.

I'm going to the roof to see
if Jupiter is still in orbit.

We understand that it may seem
a little strange about all this...

Not at all!
About appetite... Right, Anita?

Everyone has the right to make
to do what he wants with his body.

No, Anna.

-No?
-No, sex is not in the body.

And where is it?

Sex is... here.

Are you sure he's a fireman?

A little more aphrodisiac food?

-Little water?
-No, thank you.

We don't want you to feel uncomfortable
explaining all this to you.

Not at all, we're neighbors.
There is trust between us.

Of course! What's more,
we're open-minded too.

Have you had similar experiences?

I'd like to, but my piano
is very jealous and won't let me.

-And since when do you do it?
-Since we met.

It all started quite by accident.

And slowly,
we opened ourselves up to new experiences.

We are adults and responsible.
We do it with love and respect.

Very important for a couple.

-What?
-Love and respect, dear.

Yeah, I...

That's why not all couples
are ready to go through such an experience.

They have to have a very strong foundation.

When we met, I was with another
and I was going with both of them.

I should have been a fireman.

One day, I don't know how... bam!
The three of us ended up in bed.

We liked it and got used to it.

-I can imagine.
-Honey, calm down.

It is for couples with a solid foundation.
We're not ready yet.

And then, we formed a group.

With Santiago, Carolina, friends.
A party, huh?

Yes, but without drugs.
Drugs are forbidden.

Good for you, no drugs.

-We smoke marijuana from time to time.
-Big deal, the whole world smokes.

-And we take some Ecstasy.
-Really?

-Have you tried?
-No.

I'm more turned on by them
effervescent aspirin.

Try it. The Ecstasy
is awesome. Don't be afraid of it.

Who said I'm afraid of it?

I mean, it's good, often,
to lose control. Don't be afraid.

-Yes!
-We need napkins.

I'll go get it.

-Sometimes, we drink champagne.
-Champagne relaxes you.

Yes. Sometimes,
when you get undressed, you get embarrassed.

Everyone has insecurity
with their bodies.

-I'm not ashamed to be naked.
-Neither are we.

I know.

We like to have red lights
and atmospheric music.

Don't worry, we haven't heard
music. Right, dear?

No, we only listen to the buffalo.

I'm fine.
To each his own.

We all agree on everything beforehand.
The anal sex, the anal sex.

Anal sex?

-Yes, we know what everyone likes.
-Yes.

You, for example,
you really like anal.

I like anal,
but not everyone.

Of course...
To everyone, pretty much.

-To everyone, more or less... What, Anita?
-They like it.

And you?
You never tell me anything.

Maybe because you're never
at home, darling.

We talk to you so openly about it...

...because you look very modern
and liberal couple.

To the neighbors on the second floor,
the Bayadares, we would never tell.

To the Bayadares, no!

The members of Opus Dei, the only thing
all they do together is pray.

The Bayadares...

As soon as you came into the building,
we connected with you.

-There was an action...
-Yes, an action.

We are also very open,
very left-wing.

What did I tell you?

-What did you tell her?
-That you're like us.

-As for you?
-We like the same things.

Like Anna.

You like to be looked at
when you walk naked down the hallway.

-Do you see my wife naked?
-From the window in the courtyard.

You see my wife
through the window?

Are you sure it's not Mrs. Valladares?

Would Mrs. Valladares like very much
to be beautiful like Anna.

Will you comment
on this revelation, dear?

-It may have happened once!
-More than once, Anna.

-more than one, they say here.
-The first time was accidental.

Since then, if I'm in the kitchen,
you walk by naked so I can see you.

Now I understand
why you don't like curtains.

As you can see, impossible
for Salvador to keep a secret.

I'm going to the roof.

-July...
-Tell me.

Everybody likes to walk around
naked in the house.

To me, no. Especially if I know that
the perverted neighbor is watching me.

-Will you excuse yourself...?
-No.

Indeed, I do sometimes. Period.

Come on, make an excuse...

I'm not like you.
I don't need excuses.

There you go, we have another audience.

Really? And what else do you have in common
with my wife?

We both like to dance.

-My wife likes dancing.
-Yes, but you never take her to a disco.

And all he can do
is walk around the house naked.

Interesting observation
of a porn star firefighter.

-Julio, they are our guests.
-No, they are your guests.

I deserve an explanation, don't you think?

Yes, I agree.

And I'll give you.

I'm sorry.

-The first time, I was getting out of the shower.
-Out of the shower.

I was naked and walking by
through the window, I saw him.

-He saw me and I kept walking.
-It happened!

And ever since then, I've been in the habit,
after the shower...

...passing by here
knowing he might be watching me.

-It's become a habit.
-Yeah, it's like a ritual.

It relaxes me and I feel good.
Is that okay?

It is very important to have
such personal moments.

But I never look at him
in the eyes! Never!

What does it matter
if you look him in the eye?

-There is a big difference.
-If it makes a difference, I'm quiet now.

You're so jealous,
I'll be looking at him from now on.

What did he say was wrong with me, Doctor?

That you're jealous, that's good.
Jealousy means affection.

Next time, let me know.
I'll take a video, we'll post it.

And you'll see how many people will see you.

Julio, they're fantasies,
personal moments.

Everyone lives them as he wants.

Don't make her feel guilty.
It's not right.

I bet you're looking at the nipples
of Laura in the elevator and you're playing him.

-Is Julio looking at your nipples?
-Yes, always, but I don't care.

I admit, sometimes
I make it easier for him.

But life is a game!
What else?

Julio, I love it.
looking at my nipples.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

You never told me,
when you lock yourself in the bathroom...

...that you're thinking about nipples.
of the neighbor's nipples and not mine.

Because I prefer hers. I thought
it was better not to tell you.

Good! Now I'm going to start comparing!

That's enough, you two.

Julio, with your telescope
on the roof...

...you definitely get an eye
the neighbors.

That's why you like it so much
going up on the roof?

No, I like to look at the stars,
being alone and thinking.

And if it's cloudy,
I look at the neighbors.

They are a lesbian couple
in the building across the street...

...who make love all day long
and they're beautiful.

She walks around naked to be seen,
you get turned on by beautiful lesbians.

-And with your wife's nipples.
-Exactly. So?

-Are you okay, Julio?
-Yeah, I just have a tumor on my head.

We'd better go.

We had a great time.
Huh, Julio?

So hit me again,
you're gonna get a backwards one.

I really like this guy.
I like him.

-Thank you for the invitation.
-You're welcome, we have to do it again.

-Next time, at our house.
-Of course.

-We will arrange a round bed.
-Why not?

-Really?
-What?

-What did I tell you?
-What were you telling her?

-Let's leave it for today.
-Why?

-But that's why we came.
-You didn't come for the apartment?

-No, it was an excuse.
-Excuse for what?

-We will discuss it another day.
-At the next neighbors' meeting.

Then why are you here?

To invite you
to have sex with us.

Did you hear that, Julio?

Yeah, but I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

-Let's go!
-Now you're ashamed.

We've long been discussing
about having sex with you.

Really? For some time now
you've been discussing... with us?

-All the time.
-And us.

Anna and I
always talk about you.

These things can be seen.
Come on, tell them!

Well...

-You are a very attractive couple.
-Thank you.

-And we like you very much.
-And so do you.

We would like to have
a sexual experience with you.

Exchange of companions.

-Exchange?
-Or the four of us together.

-All together.
-Whatever you want.

Take your time to think about it
and if you want, we'll go ahead.

-Well...
-When can we do this?

On weekends, we're busy
with the little one's activities.

The neighbors are inviting you to an orgy,
and that's all you have to say?

I'm just nervous.

This is the first time I've been invited to an orgy.
I'm sorry, I got really nervous.

Of course, don't worry.
No problem, as if we didn't mention it.

Thank you for the invitation.
But we have to think it through.

On the contrary, Anna. These things
you shouldn't be thinking about.

And now, if you like.

Now?

I told you it was
a little rushed today, Salva.

Why? All four of us are here.
Alone, relaxed, having our drinks.

We like each other.
And I brought condoms.

I haven't had a waxing and...

Julio, come on. Don't be afraid.

Look, you idiot...

Excuse me a little bit.

Hello, Eva.
I can't talk right now.

I'll call you later.

We're about to have an orgy.

With Anna, of course.

And with Carolina
and some firemen.

You're not having an orgy?
You're way behind...

Don't worry, I'm very well.
I'll call you. Bye. Bye.

My sister.

-Shall I tell her to come?
-I'm in.

Let's go. Bye.

We were very glad you came.

-The Tupperware!
-What?

-We forgot the Tupperware. It's new.
-Never mind...

No, please, Laura.
It's new.

I'll wash it a little...

-There it is. I'll wash it...
-You don't have to, Anna.

I'll just be a minute.

I'll bring another one of my specialties
next time, if you like.

We liked it very much.
Especially Julio.

It's a shame.

We were going to have so much fun...

-What else are you going to do?
-What else are we gonna do?

-Yes...
-Sure...

You will see TV
or you're gonna fight.

What do you care what we do, asshole?

-You're a big asshole!
-Julio, please!

What do you mean, "Julio, please"?

The guy's an asshole and
and he's been playing us since day one.

-See? You're already fighting.
-Yeah, we fight sometimes.

-And you shout.
-Can you hear us? When?

Maybe when you get hysterical...
like now.

-I don't get hysterical anymore.
-Sorry.

You're right...
I think you're not ready...

-This is not the time. Okay.
-Probably.

Compared to you,
we're definitely not ready.

We didn't do the pervert seminar
of the round-bed sect.

Julio, he means that they are unusual
...and couples...

I'm sorry.
Are you really a psychologist?

Careful, careful...

Well, good night.

Good night. Good night.

I'm sorry.

Next time I hear
four gasps in a row...

...I'll call the police.

I'm sure they'll find minors
in your sadistic caves.

-Adults, never...
-I'm so sorry.

Anita, you're coming with me,
not with them.

Sorry if we offended you.

But, guys,
tomorrow is another day.

We'll be good neighbours
as we have been until now.

Sure, I want to make it clear
that I will do everything...

...to get a leg up
from the apartment building.

You know, I don't want
to get in the elevator...

...with my daughter and the perverts
in your evil sect.

She's not evil!

Don't exaggerate.
We were just invited to an orgy.

-What?
-We've been invited to an orgy.

You, with your sense of humor,
can't you see it as a joke?

Now I feel
my tumor's about to explode.

Is it my fault? You think I'm exaggerating?

They come here and preach to us
of modernity.

You have to be brave in life.

We are cowards
for not doing drugs.

Our life is grey and boring,
just watching TV, fighting.

-And you give them right?
-No.

Yes, you always do right by everyone.

-Everyone is as they please.
-Exactly, Anita. What are you now?

Modern and liberal
who likes anal?

We are pathetic!

-Sorry, we're not usually like that.
-Don't worry about us.

-We are people of trust.
-I feel bad leaving you like this.

No, don't go yet.
Stay a little longer.

You might even jump, you know!

-What a shame... sorry.
-Don't say it again, Anna.

-Then, should we stay or...
-Do you want to do it, Anita?

You want to start fucking me?
the four of us?

Or would you rather do it
alone with the fireman?

He can take you
on top of the washing machine!

You know, maybe I do.
It would do me a lot of good.

That would be great, Julio!
I need a good fuck!

-I have condoms...
-All yours, asshole!

Wherever you like!

On the carpet, perhaps?

On the carpet?

We have become a dandy!
What a shame!

-I am very sad...
-Calm down, Anna. It's all right.

Fighting is good for you. Now and then,
couples should fight.

Where did you get this?

In a manual for amateur psychologists
they sell on the newsstands?

Julio, without conflict or argument,
wounds don't heal.

Anna expresses a need...
You're doing very well.

-Yes?
-Yes, go on.

Okay.

And you know what?
It's good for you too!

You might want to relax a little...

...and spit out all the shit
you wake up with every morning...

...and you go to bed every night.

You think you have the right
to hit us, but you don't.

No one has the right
to make someone else's life miserable!

Pour the whiskey, you idiot.
It'll do us good.

Go.

I don't remember when we made love
for the last time.

Not even my last orgasm,
not even a little one...

...like those who have
your daughter's hamsters.

-Anna?
-Tell me.

As a psychologist, I warn you...

...that it's very important
what's happening between you tonight.

You have to be careful what you say.
Often, there is no turning back.

Just a moment, Doctor. I'll get a notebook.
so I can take notes.

Well done! You are defending yourself
with your sarcasm!

It's the only thing you know how to do
with your intelligence.

For some time now, you've been accumulating
tensions and accusations.

Categories.

I... stories.

I think we should
you should be discussing this soberly.

Safety.

Nifa... frugality.

Because you can't
be a little more pleasant?

I remind you that you've been avoiding me
when I approach you to make love to you.

You're not really coming near me!

I don't trust anyone
who doesn't treat me well.

You'd fuck the fireman,
and you just met him!

What's happening to us tonight?
We are not like that.

Don't worry. We're having a great time.

We warm up
for the round bed.

How about you?

You are incapable of doing it.
You have a big mouth, you talk a lot, but...

I might do it, though.
An orgy, whatever. You know why?

-I have no idea, darling.
-I'm not a coward like you!

You don't have the guts to do
anything you say!

You're going to add something else
before our guests leave?

Whiskey.

Whiskey.

Calm down.

We have to stay a little longer,
because we're partly responsible.

Mostly you, darling.

Make a tea party.

Let's sit down for a while, talk about
about what's going on tonight.

We can stay
a little longer.

You're kidding, right?
You want to do therapy now?

I prefer anal sex.

Damn, what a night!

First the snacks, then the orgy...
And for dessert, couples therapy!

Anna... What are you thinking
right now?

David.

-Who's David?
-A lover I never had.

-And you regret it?
-Right now, very much so.

How was your relationship?

We worked together, ate together...

I was madly in love with him.

-Did you ever tell Julio?
-No, but he knew we were friends.

She'd meet him sometimes,
walking by my work.

-July...
-Tell me, doctor of love.

What memories do you have
of what Anna says?

Well, he was hanging around
all day.

But he was not the only one.

Since we've been together,
Anna has needed me to know...

...that there's always a man
crazy about her.

And that he might leave me
at any time.

-Anna, are you in love with David?
-No.

-Why did you think of him now?
-Maybe I was happier with him.

Get him on the phone,
and we'll have a threesome!

In addition, he wanted to have children,
just like me.

-But you already have a daughter...
-I wanted more.

And Julio, no?

If Julio wanted more children,
I can assure you they'd be running here right now.

You have discussed it a lot
this subject?

-A lot.
-Not at all.

And if we did something stupid...

...the next day, he ran out to buy
the next day's pill.

-And croissants, Anita.
-Yes, croissant.

He always had a lot of arguments
not to have any more children.

And I left him
to convince me, as always.

-Honey or sugar?
-I want some ammonia.

-Are you mad at Julio?
-Not anymore.

-But you're angry.
-Yes, I'm angry.

Because I'm 40 years old...

...and I can't buy a rug.
without her yelling at me.

I love cats,
but Julio doesn't.

Do you see a cat here?

-No.
-That's the way it is with everything.

If you don't mind, I'm going upstairs,
see if I can catch up with the lesbians.

Have you always wanted to be a musician?

If I understand correctly,
you make your living as a professor.

Would you like to continue
playing? What happened to you?

Do you think you've been unlucky?
You didn't have enough talent?

You're angry
because you didn't make it?

That's why you didn't want any more children...

...to keep him from getting any further away
your dream.

That's why you like to go
on the roof and watch the stars?

Because at home you're forced
to deal with all this?

No, because I'm jerking off
while spying on lesbians.

He's never serious, Laura.
Impossible.

With a psychologist who listens to Country?
No way!

-Why?
-Doesn't face things.

Nothing upsets him.

On the contrary, Anna
is very upset about everything.

The other day, at a lunch,
he told a joke. I didn't laugh.

-And he didn't talk to me for two weeks!
-You were talking to me in front of other people!

Instead of helping me,
you made me look ridiculous.

It was a very bad joke.

So what? I'm your wife.
You were supposed to defend me.

I'm ashamed. What did you expect?

You can't live with someone
who's ashamed of his partner.

As for that, we agree.

-July...
-No, thanks, dummy.

How is it
your sexual relationships?

Together or separately?

When was the last time
you had sex?

It's been a long time, almost a year.

When was the last time
you went somewhere together?

The day before yesterday, at the supermarket.
And it was very romantic!

I live my life
and he's living his.

At night, we try to coincide
as little as possible.

-Yes, it's all programmed.
-All.

The two days I go to the gym,
he stays home with the little one.

On other days, he goes to the terrace
to smoke.

We go to sleep
at different times.

And we get up in the morning
a few minutes apart.

So, we don't coincide.
We're a very modern couple.

Very modern. Bless WhatsApp!
It's all we have left.

If we continue like this,
we'll never be invited to another orgy.

If I left the house,
he wouldn't even notice.

Doctor, you can't see
good, huh?

Not really.

And with your professional experience,
what would you suggest we do?

Separate.

I knew it wasn't a good idea
to invite them over for dinner.

To separate
before you hurt each other.

We have discussed it a few times.

All couples, at some point,
have thought about getting a divorce.

Tonight, all I wanted...

...was for you to come over and have a bite to eat.
and show you the apartment.

I feel like for a long time now
you've been piling up unresolved conflicts.

Many clashes...

You've been fighting a lot and
you don't know how to forgive.

We never forgive
each other.

I know many such couples
and it's like a vicious circle.

That's enough now!

Don't worry about me. I'll go
to live in the mountains with Carolina.

You know he's right, don't you?

-You never want to talk about it!
-What do you want to talk about, Anita?

The session is over.

For what's happening to us, Julio.
For what happened to us.

What happened to us?

We're doing everything we can.

Life is difficult.
It's hard to put up with the other person.

Things are never
as you imagined.

I never thought I'd live
in a house without curtains.

-I'm serious, Julio.
-So am I, always, even if it doesn't show.

You don't know me?
It's me, Anna! Damn it!

It's me.

-Tonight, we hit rock bottom. We've hit rock bottom.
-It's a shame.

Just as he started
I started to like the carpet...

So that's it, then?

We're breaking up and that's it?

That's what psychotherapy is for.
for couples. Right, Laura?

To divide.

It will be tough, but you'll get used to it
to being without each other.

-Really?
-Very well.

Courage, because now
comes the hardest part.

Don't scare us anymore.
What else can happen to us tonight?

-You have to say goodbye.
-Say goodbye?

-We?
-Naturally.

You have lived together for a long time.

You have to thank each other
for what you have shared...

...for what you gave.

You have a wonderful daughter...

-Yes.
-Yes.

And you were very much in love once.

Very.

You used to be a nice couple.
You should be proud of that.

-Hug.
-Hug?

-We haven't hugged in a long time.
-I know. That's why. Come on. Come on.

-I don't know if...
-I don't... I don't know if...

All right, now split up...

Okay.

-Well, how was it?
-Fine.

I was a little touched, but...

Me too, but I hide it.

Fucking...

Now I feel bad.
We just wanted to get laid.

You should propose it
to the Bayadares.

-Well, now...
-Now... Yeah, okay.

-Sorry.
-Please.

-Now I would prefer you to stay.
-We won't know what to say.

-You want us to set up the couch for you?
-Thanks, but what if the buffalo comes?

Courage.

And thank you.
We had a great time.

Goodbye.

To take now and then
some Ecstasy every now and then.

Maybe you're right, Salva.

Good night. Good night.

Come in, come in.

-Give it to me.
-No, okay.

-Tomorrow I will continue cleaning.
-Don't worry.

I'll do it.

We must continue the debate
about what to do.

-I am very tired now.
-Yes, tomorrow...

-I'm going to bed.
-I'd rather sleep on the couch.

Wherever you want, Julio.

I feel bad about how I'm acting
sometimes.

And we don't have a cat in the house.

Indeed, tonight we hit rock bottom.

We said a lot
to each other tonight.

What?

I don't want to quit.

I don't want to quit.

How about you?
