Where are we going?
Come on, get out,
Careful with the door,
Remember how we always talked about going on a safari?
It was a game, Dad,
Well, why don't we actually do it?
Safaris take place in Africa,
It'll be a great adventure,
I don't want more adventure, I want to go home,
You'll have fun, Come on,
Everything will be okay,
Everything will be okay, Leo,
You are strong, sir,
Come on, Tamara, We're going to fly,
Isaac,
NO ONE SAW US LEAVE
Did my dad call?
Just now,
He's on his way here,
Did he mention my kids? Did they find them?
He didn't say anything, just that he's on his way,
Something happened, Carlos,
I missed them again,
SOUTH AFRICA, 1965
What happened?
Tell me the kids are fine,
Honey, Leo escaped before Interpol reached Enzo's house,
Someone must have told them,
We don't know yet if they've left Italy,
We think they might go to Israel,
If Leo gets there with the kids, we'll be the first to know,
And this time, he won't run away,
Carlos, what happened last night and right in front of the whole community
was a provocation,
Your daughter knows she can always count on me,
Even if we stop seeing each other until the kids are found,
Whatever you need,
Have a good day,
Welcome,
I have a surprise for you,
What?
To me, he's family,
He was just born two months ago,
You could take care of him if you wanted to,
He still doesn't have a name,
You'll have to choose one,
- Chester, - Chester!
- Very good, - Let me see Chester,
Chester's a great name,
Mom said that if I wanted a dog, we would name him Chester,
I love it,
We're at our worst,
You're not alone, honey,
You have your dad, You have me,
Give me that,
And you have Carlos,
Your dad and I were talking,
We believe it's time to reach out to the media
and expose this living hell,
- You would come with us,,, - No,,,
Would you be willing to do that?
It was your dad's idea,
but would you come along?
Because the whole country will be talking about us,
You, Carlos,,,
our family,
Our community will never forgive us, but,,,
that might be the only way to stop Samuel,
- Do you like surprises? - Yes!
To dreams that come true,
Nomsa, bring another dish for Raquel,
She's early,
- Okay, - Okay,
Hola,
Finally, someone to talk with in Spanish,
Hello, Nomsa,
Hello,
- Tammy, say hi, - Hi,
Hi,
- Raquel, Nice to meet you, - Leo, Likewise,
Yes, I teach Spanish and Latin American Literature,
Do you like to read?
- Yes, - Yes?
I can read a little bit,
We'll practice together, if you wish,
Can I hold him?
He's gorgeous,
How shameless, Yes,
- Is that her? - Yes, it's her, Yes,
Yes, Look at that, Here she comes,
Parallel to the hip,
Form a triangle,,,
Sara!
Let's go,
Wait, I just want to talk,
Please,
Not here,
Really? Are you ashamed to be seen with me?
After what you did last night,,,
Mauricio is one of Leo's best friends,
And you're my best friend,
Sara, I'm desperate, I need to find my kids,
I don't know anything,
I swear I don't know where they are,
Your husband must know something, He's always in the office with Samuel,
Mauricio would never betray Leo,
And I can't put myself in your shoes
because I'd never cheat on Mauricio with his brother-in-law,
Why didn't you tell me?
Apparently, I was right,
Come, Deborah,
What are you doing?
Everyone's looking for you,
The hospital wants an explanation,
and you're hiding like a coward?
I don't give a damn about the board or the hospital,
And the only explanation I need to give is to you and my children,
Then go ahead, Explain it to me,
Give me your explanation!
It's over, Gabriela,
We both know it,
I'm so sorry,
I fell in love with someone else, It could happen to anyone,
You cannot leave,
People are bound to talk,
They're already talking,
You need to stop worrying about it,
Thanks,
You're very annoying, Carlos, Not always,
Come in,
- Good evening! - Hi!
- How are you? - Very well,
- Hi, - Do you remember my wife, Gabriela?
Sure, How are you?
My siblings-in-law, Leo and Valeria,
- Hi, nice to meet you, - Hi,
- Nice to meet you, - What's up?
Long time no see,
I can't wait to tell my parents,
Susana and I met when we were kids,
Come in, Welcome,
Actually, I really need a drink right now,
- Thanks, - Make yourselves at home,
It's all so nice, Look at the ceiling,
Carlos told me everything,
I often wonder how things might have been if we hadn't come to your party,
You two would've found each other anyway,
Let's dance,
- Go, - Yeah?
Dancing isn't our thing, It runs in the family,
Still, you're not turning me down,
I won't,
I'll go get that drink, or I might end up shooting myself right here,
You want anything?
- Why are you always leaving me alone? - Come if you want,
May I have one?
So, you're a university professor,
How many students do you teach?
Around 40,
- That's a lot, - Yes,
- How did you end up in South Africa? - Who says I "ended up" here?
I won a grant and came here to study,
Then I couldn't leave,
What about you?
- We're just on our way, - Where to?
To,,, Shefayim,
It is a kibbutz in central Israel,
Just the three of you?
Yes, just the three of us,
I'm going to explore for a bit,
I'll go check if the kids have misplaced Chester,
- Okay, - Sorry for bothering you,
No problem,
Thanks,
Why the long face?
You kept pestering me about attending this party,
I regret it,
All these people are basically pretentious phony communists,
Where are Valeria and Carlos?
They're dancing with the pretend communists,
Your marriage is just as messed up as mine, isn't it?
It's my own fault, I haven't been the easiest person to get along with,
Do you have a lover?
- Do you have a lover? - No,
No,
Does Carlos have one?
No,
I don't think so, But it could certainly help us,
I'm sorry,
- Are you okay? - Yes,
- I want you to read something, - What is it?
A poem,
Why don't you read it to me? You said you enjoyed doing that,
It's not a poem to read out loud,
It's about encounters that happen late,
Who wrote it?
I did,
It's for you,
Carlos, I can't,,,
It's yours, If you don't want it, burn it,
My apologies,
I shouldn't have imposed it on you in that way,
I don't know what I was thinking,
May I sit down?
We have ten minutes,
This won't take more than five, okay?
What do you want, Moishe?
I want you to take sides,
What happened at the opening was very serious,
- You know the community is split-- - He kidnapped my grandkids,
We can't continue being partners with that man,
Moishe, just a month ago you used to call that man "brother,"
You must resolve this matter behind closed doors,
If you won't support me,
you'll force me to seek help elsewhere,
We understand that you can't maintain your partnership at the bank
or as a member of the board,
We assure you that we'll call a meeting
to decide who stays,
One of you will have to sell his shares,
Thank you,
but I expect much more than that,
My family urges you to condemn that man for kidnapping my grandchildren,
There's no reason to do it, Moishe,
Samuel hasn't done anything illegal,
The children are traveling with their dad,
We have to go,
Bye,
See you later, Moishe,
What's that?
It's a military checkpoint, They're all over the city,
Okay,
Can only white people use that phone?
Yes,
Can we go elsewhere?
That's how it is, You'll have to get used to it,
- I won't be long, - Okay,
How long?
No, I don't know how long,
You should get used to the idea
that you'll be in South Africa for a few months,
There's no way to enter Israel illegally,
As long as Interpol holds an arrest warrant against you,
you mustn't come close to any borders, Understood?
Samuel, you have to see this,
SCANDAL IN LOCAL JEWISH COMMUNITY
INTERNATIONAL WARRANT ISSUED FOR MISSING FATHER
DESPERATE MOM CONTINUES SEARCH
"Desperate mom,,,"
I'll mail you Valeria's latest little present,
What now?
They went to the media and gave them the whole story,
It says you kidnapped the kids,
For now, get used to the idea
that you'll be there for a while,
Is everything okay?
Get out of the car,
I have to tell you something,
Come on,
Come on!
Okay, Look at me,
Look at me,
You are big kids now,
You're very smart, right?
So, you know we're here because we can't be with your mom,
Why?
Your grandma
just told me that your mom doesn't want to see you,
She'll always love you,
but she won't come to get you,
We will see her,
- No, Isaac, - Yes,
- I said no! - Yes! Of course she'll come!
- She won't come, - She will!
She will come,
Tamara!
Honey!
Tamara!
Tamara,
- Hey, I'm so sorry, honey, - Leave! You're not my family!
I'm very sorry, honey,
What is that?
Shall we bury it together?
Yes?
Okay,
Let's make a hole,
And we say goodbye,
Goodbye,
You're late,
It wasn't easy to leave my house,
There are a bunch of reporters out there,
And all because of the mess created by the father
of the only person who's to blame for this situation,
And today, the whole country is talking about us,
- So, this has to end, - That's why we're here,
All of us at this table share the same story of exile and poverty
that brought us together as survivors of a war,
Of course,
You two were the ones who encouraged us to create a bank
that would protect our savings,
We all put
the few pesos that we had in this box,
Moishe, you convinced us yourself that we needed a safe place
to keep our savings,
We didn't trust anyone, but ourselves,
We all know Samuel is the one organizing the revenge
against Moishe's daughter,
What my daughter-in-law did
is indecent and it's shameful for my family and for the community,
Your son is a kidnapper and a fugitive,
- It's not my daughter who Interpol wants! - Stop!
We've heard enough,
Does either one agree to leave voluntarily
and sell his shares to the rest of the group?
Okay,
So, according to the by-law,
we'll vote,
Please leave the room while the voting takes place,
Give them time,
What you told them is hard to process, right?
Yes,
I just told them the truth,
I was also thinking,,,
Do you think you can help me with the kids? By,,,
teaching them,
It's just that we'll stay longer than I thought,
No, I don't think so, Leo,
- I'll pay you anything, Two or three,,, - It's not that,
Look, children ask questions,
And I don't know what to say,
I don't know if their mom is sick, if she remarried,
Their,,,
Their mom is now,,,
with my sister's husband,
They'll understand,
Talk to them,
I'm going to the university,
And then to a party,
Have fun,
May I come along?
To the party,
I think a change of scenery would be good for me,
I'll pick you up later,
- It wasn't an easy decision, - Cut to the chase, Ariel,
The result was five votes to three,
In favor of whom?
Since he's a founding partner, Moisés will remain on this board,
Samuel, your shares will be distributed among the partners,
And we'll pay you the due amount,
I gave you and Leo this house
for you to live in it, not for you to bring your lover,
- That was the deal, - It's your grandkids' house,
That's exactly why I need you to evacuate it,
When they return, they'll come here,
- Are they coming back? - Of course,
As soon as we can make sure that you can't approach them,
That'll never happen,
You'll lose the children's custody,
And believe me, you won't be able to approach them,
Even if you tell the world your side of the story,
In our community,
disloyalty doesn't go unpunished,
It's here,
Come on,
For you,
Cheers,
I'd like to introduce you to the head of Architecture,
If you're staying a while,,, Come on,
Let's dance,
Thanks for introducing me to your friends,
And for everything else,
And for my kids, Thanks,
Shut up and dance,
- What? Did you like it? - I did,
Yes, It's,,,
Welcome to the group,
Did Galya come to her Wednesday appointment?
Yes, ma'am, good afternoon, She's back there,
Hey, I don't have you booked, Are you having your hair done?
Galya,
No, not here, Please, Valeria, not here,
I know how much you love your grandkids,
And you know how much they love me,
I also understand your loyalty to Samuel is above everything,
Stop, Now,
I don't ask you to put yourselves in my shoes, as I know you won't,
but I do know one of you will help me,
Maybe not now,
But any information can help me find my children,
You live with your husbands, you hear them talking,
They think we don't dare contradict them out of fear, but,,,
I'm not here to apologize,
but I want to explain,
I was also forced to marry when I turned 18,
Nobody asked me if I wanted to get married,
I imagine nobody asked Leo either,
And then I had kids,
Nothing is more important to me than Tamara and Isaac,
Nothing,
I didn't intend to cheat on Leo,,,
but I allowed it to happen,
Because for the first time ever, I'd fallen in love,
I dared fall in love,
and to punish me, my kids were taken away from me,
Who could've voted against you?
It could have been any of them,
Every day, we keep losing
partners, friends,,,
respect,
I lost a son and my grandchildren,
Yes, but we'll win this war, Mom,
What is there left to win?
Do you want to give the kids
back to that woman?
Do you know how that would make Leo look?
You only care about the fact that you were betrayed,
And that must be punished,
You have two other grandkids,
And another daughter,
And winning that war
means not letting anyone humiliate me or my kids, Mom,
I don't want to be a part of this anymore,
The day you two decide that Leo and the kids can come back,
let me know,
I haven't forgotten about you,
Let's think of what comes next, Dad,
What?
I can't believe you made me dance,
You're a great dancer,
Really,
- Keith, - Howzit?
- Great, - Howzit?
LEO, HERE'S THE EVIDENCE OF YOUR MESS - S,
,,,ISAAC AND TAMARA SALTZMAN,,,
LEONARDO SALTZMAN
We'll be with you the whole time,
They are ready,
Come on,
Victoria, Valeria,
- You are very brave, - Thank you,
We'll start in ten minutes,
Ready?
Three, two, one,
Valeria,
not long ago, nobody knew you,
but in a few hours, all of Mexico will know who you are,
Tell us why you are here,
I'm here because I don't know what else to do,
I don't have anything left to lose,
Except for my children,
The rest doesn't matter,
That house is for sale, We could move to the city,
Black families were evicted from this area,
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
What's wrong?
Shabban had someone follow me,
We'll move, I can't let him control me like that,
Fuck,
But we don't have anything,
I forgot to take out the boxes,
Don't move,
Tamara! Hey!
