You've been weird since we left the market, what's wrong?
Nothing! Does there have to be something wrong?
We've been out for an hour and you haven't said a word!
We got the groceries, came downtown and you're silent!
If you're mad at me, say so. Stop wearing that face
I'm not making a face, you're the one who's always pissed off
Let's go over there
If l'm mad I don't shut up and hold it in like you!
Oh sure, you're always right, l forgot
I'm not always right, but I am this time
Come on, you like to fight
You could stick up for me just once!
You made a scene because she cut into the line
- But she was ahead of us! -When l tried to apologize,
she jumped on me like a maniac and you kept quiet!
What was I supposed to do?
You don't see the face you make when l talk to people
-You're ashamed of me -Whatare you talking about?
You were screaming. Even the cashier said you were wrong
Did you see how she pointed that pencil at me?
Yes, but you didn't need to tell her where to shove it
Okay, maybe I went too far. Then she asked the Romanian
if she had enough money to pay. What a racist!
Listen, put that money away. There are people around...
He's lost. He can't remember his own name
Maybe he's got I.D.
Do you have an identity card? No, not money, identification
-What about in his pockets? -What, should l frisk him?
I'm very confused...
I don't remember anything
Put your money in your pocket
Give it a minute, you'll remember
-We can't just leave him! -What can we do about him?
He's following us!
- He's not following us -Yes, he is!
Don't worry
We'll take you to the police station near our house
They'll know what to do
You know how many people get lost? A whole lot, right?
There's a game on TV tonight
What team do you like?
- Okay, so you don't like soccer - Stop it now!
Hey, can you give me a hand?
No, you stay in the car. I'll get it
- Ma, Martina broke my Game Boy - It's not true, Microbe did it
- Hurry up, don't stop to chat - Hi, kids
- I'Il help, Mama, give me one -Martina, you're in my way
-Who's that man? - I have no idea, he's lost
You know Filippo and how he can complicate life
-Where did you find him? - Downtown.
-Just what you need -Wait, don't puIl me
Microbe, stop yelling on the stairs!
-Where's Papa? -Go watch TV with him
-Who was that man? - I'm in no mood, Martina, go
I don't feeI Iike watching TV
Detergent on the right, all spray bottles on the left
This kid is getting more obsessive than you are!
Order makes life easier and doesn't make you waste time
You're the one making me waste time
l toId you, go inside and watch television!
Martina, can you hear me?
I told you, I don't feeI like watching TV
Was she born that way or did she grow into it?
I don't know
- Giovanna, he's undressing! - Getaway from there!
He's almost naked! Come before he closes the shades
Will you stop that?
Okay, enough already!
Open up, Vittorio! Leave Luciana alone!
I'll call the cops this time!
Open the door right now!
Busybody!
I told you, l don't want you involved! Go away!
Mind your own fucking business, bitch, or I'll call the cops!
I'll have you and that illegal immigrant who fucks you arrested
Get out of here!
He was kidding
Giambo!
- Giambo! -What is it?
Vittorio called me a bitch
- He called you a dirty nigger - I'll take care ofit
- He didn'tsay that! - He thought it! Be quiet!
Open the door, asshole!
- It's about time! - The game started, right?
Papa's home! Hi, Papa!
Will you eat with us or take your plate next door?
Good evening
- Filippo! - I'll take him after the game
l don't believe it! You brought him back here!?
There were too many people, we waited an hour!
They want to know how I found him and bullshit like that
- There, only one point! -What an imbecile...
Eat
-Would you like some more? -Yes
- Mama? -Why are you awake?
Maybe Simone is dead
-Simone? - The man in there!
- How do you know his name? - He told me
He got his memory back
He told your daughter that his name is Simone
He's asleep from overexertion
Did he just tell you or did you ask him?
-Why are you whispering? - So l don't wake him up
If you let him sleep, will you carry him out ofhere?
Sir? Simone?
You have to wake up. We have to go, wake up
No, Filippo! You're not leaving him here!
- He could be a maniac! -You're exaggerating, Giovanna
He'll sleep near the kids! You're crazier than he is!
Stop yelling
I'll yell when I want to! Watch how he wakes up now!
Great, he made himself comfortable now
-You resolve this situation! - Look! You made him cry!
Stop that tone or I'll smack you one!
And I'll report you to a cop!
Are you coming to bed?
He's sleeping. l put Mama's blanket on him
Turn out the light, l'm coming
- Go to sleep! - l'd go to sleep,
- but this guy's awake! - I don't feel like it
We sleep together once a week and you don't feel like it?
No, leave it open. l don't trust that man in there
- No, he'll hear us this way -We'll do it with a silencer
- l really don't feel like it -Come on, sure you do!
Good morning!
-Why didn't you wake me up? -You were sleeping so nicely
Look Mama, Simone made breakfast
-Where is he now? - He's in there
He made a mess with the eggs, sure he's better, right?
Have a crepe
- No, l don't want anything - l helped him, you didn't!
Martina, go do your notebook
Yeah, and do Marco's too!
Remember, they get out of school at two today
-What time do you start? -At seven, like always
- Haven't they changed the shifts? -Sure they have
lt's just that they gave me the night shiftagain
-You always get cheated - I was the last guy hired
l have to hurry now, I hate doing things in a rush!
He's in there
He's going, today
I'll take care of it
Today
Don't worry, I promise
What's wrong?
- Have you seen Chen Suilan? -Why?
- Have you seen her? - Sure, don't you see her too?
- That's not her -What's the difference?
-What happened to Chen Siulan? - She works two jobs,
her sister replaces her and she has no working papers.
The bosses know this trick of using the same name for relatives who come
- It doesn't work anymore! -What are you, an SS officer?
-They asked me to investigate -You tell them it's not your job
You do the accounting. What does that mean?
-You count people? - How can I say no to them?
With your mouth!
Hi!
Hi Mama, look what we got
-What's all this? -Wait or I'll crash
-What have you done? - I'll explain later
- How about explaining now? -Are you happy now?
- No, I'm playing! - Let Marco play too
No, he doesn't know howto play
- l didn't buy it, okay? -You took money from that man?
- No, he gave it to me -You know what that's called?
- Exploiting the vulnerable - Don't yell, he'll hear you!
He'll hear me?
Why the fuck didn't you bring him to the police today?
l did and I made a report. I just couldn't leave him there
- How much did you take? -They'll call and let us know
l didn't take his money, are you crazy? He came with me
to get the kids from school and he wanted to buy them a gift
He told Martina to pick one, you know how grand she is
Yes, but you've really lost the plot! l can't sleep with him here
Take him to the pub and leave him at the station on the way
Sure! This way I'm always the one who's the shit!
They're not for us, l sell them
-Are you a pastry maker? - To earn some extra money
l make them twice a week for my friend who owns a pub
But l'd have liked that
l would have liked to open a pastry shop
Why didn't you?
I didn't have the money
You could work in a pastry shop if you like it that much
Sure, at 29 years old with 2 kids, I'd be an apprentice
with a husband who gets himself fired all the time
I know it's hard to quit, but at least when you bake
you shouldn't smoke. You used
tap water and you didn't even taste it
to make sure there wasn't too much chlorine
Pardon me. I'll use mineral water next time
Do you have a favorite brand to suggest?
You'll find the right one. Try it when it's cold
and when it's heated. The water must always be clear,
have no smell, be pleasant to the taste
and be absolutely low in alkaline
How do you know all this?
Maybe I knew someone...
who knew how to bake very well
Then you must remember something
lf I'm late at the police station,
would you put my kids to bed after yours?
-Want Giambo to go with you? - He is just what l need...
I'll take two minutes, wait for me here
No, you could have brought them a little later
for closing time!
Sorry, I'll bring them early next time, life is a mess at home
Send your husband if you're in a mess, or don't you trust him?
lt's you I don't trust! He works nights anyway, so...
Excuses, excuses. If I had the chance, I'd show him a good time
Do it! You'd get him off my back then!
- Trouble is, he'd never do it - Oh yes he would
- lsn't Giorgio enough for you? -Still?
After 15 years, it's incest now
- Irene, the cash register - I'm coming!
I can't, I'm in a rush
Relax a bit or your brain will blow up, honey
By the way, the pies aren't selling very well
What can I do foryou then?
That's my favorite question. Make sure it's good
Be serious, tell me what you want
How should I know? Invent something, shock me
Make something new
You think that's easy. 'Bye
Pardon me, I think your grandfather isn't feeling well
I was standing by him and he was saying some strange things
-Then he walked off - He's not my grandfather
Sorry, it's just that I saw him with you before...
I live in the building across from you
Really?
l don't know who he is, we found him in the street
The police said they'd inform us
if they find out anything
Where did he go now?
I met him there in front of my car
Excuse me, but you took him to the police
and they left him in your care?
- Impossible, right? - lt seems a bitstrange to me
You're right. I wasn't the one who brought him anyway
Well, he can't be too far
He's not well
-What's wrong with him? - His memory is gone
What's the name?
Giovanna
I'm Lorenzo. But, I meant his name
Oh! Simone
l should have taken him to the police before going to the pub
Now what can l do with him...
l can't chase him around all night
You've been very kind,
but I'd better go home now
Simone, what are you doing? Why did you get out of the car?
My life is already a mess, you are just what I need!
Come back to the car
I'll take you where you want
We can go ask again, maybe they've found out
-where you lives - I'll take you there
No, thanks anyway.
My car is right here. Two people are better than one
l'm sorry, I'm taking up so much of your time
Don't worry about it, I'm not working tomorrow
- They're coming! -Who's coming?
Don't get upset
- Let me out. l have to get out! - No! Whatare you doing?
Simone, wait!
- I'll go with him - Okay, I'll catch up
No, please! Let me go!
Lorenzo! He's not feeling well!
Simone, what's wrong?
Nothing
I just need... to sit down for a bit
Good evening, Mario. I'll have the usual, please
- Sorry, I'm not Mario - Then have Mario come
No one named Mario works here
-What do you usually have? -Vermouth
- I'll have a beer, please - Make that two
Who are you?
Lorenzo. We were in the car together just now
We met in front of the pub, remember?
No. What kind of work do you do?
l work in a bank
Do you like it?
I guess so. I'm about to become a branch manager
Your wife will be pleased
Well...l'm not married
You're not married at your age? Why not?
I don't know
Maybe I haven't found the right person yet
What about you?
-What about me? - Do you like your job?
- Do you like chicken? -Yes, it's alright
l work in a chicken factory
l'm in accounting. And l don't like it
I like your cakes very much. The ones you bring to the pub
How did you know I make them?
I've seen you quite often and I go to the pub a lot
And like I told you, I live across from you
You've never seen me?
Maybe l have
Maybe in the neighborhood
Or maybe from my window
I don't know, what with everything I have to do...
- Sir?! -Oh, excuse me
Have you seen Sara? They're even taking babies away!
Please help me find her, please!
Help me find her
Remember to take the money out of your jacket
These are Filippo's. They might be small for you
Ijust need time to wash your things, put them here
I don't like the sweater
You haven'teven tried it on
I don't like the color
Alright, I'll get another one for you
This robe is for you... it's blue!
I'll take your clothes to the cleaners tomorrow
Do you understand?
- Hello? -Giovanna? lt's Lorenzo
Sorry to call so late, but I looked up your number
and l saw you were still awake
Yes
After I left you at your car, I lost you and
I just wanted to know if he's alright
Yes, he's taking a shower
I couldn't... I couldn't tell you before
what he said to me when he stopped me
So, here we are
My friends had gone and I was getting into my car
At a certain point, he was almost on top of me
He spoke to me...as if he were talking to someone else
He...it was actually as if he were declaring his love
I don't remember the words exactly now
''I'll always love you''
More or less that's what he said
And then?
''We have to love each other secretly,''
''because no one...no one will forgive our love''
What did you answer?
l didn't know what to say
It was a bit embarrassing too
Then he just stopped. He looked me in the eyes
''l don't want to give up our love. Do you?''
He really said that?
Yes
For a moment I was... I tried to give him an answer
Any answer. I don't know how he took it
You didn't understand who he was talking to?
No, but he was convinced he was talking to the person he loved
So he wasn't talking about me...l mean
about her. About the woman
that he couldn't love
What was he thinking about?
Who knows how it ended...
Take him to the police tomorrow
Yes, l have to take the kids to school and shop, but...
You can always call if you need a hand. I'll give you
- my mobile number -Alright
Is everything alright?
Listen, I'm coming in
What are you doing?
You couldn't sleep?
You couldn'teither
Did the children stay with your friend?
Yes, but Emine's kids sleep here often too
I like the way your husband plays with his children
Yes, Filippo is a good father
Have you known him long?
We've been married for 9 years, but were together before that
It was different in the beginning. Then...
Then the worries, the children, like everyone else l guess
It must be beautiful to watch love grow that started only as
passion... and to help it change,
to protect it from the passage of time
Well, that's not always easy
Do you like to dance?
Yes, but I haven't danced for years
lt's been longer for me
- Martina, hurry up -We'll be ready in two minutes
-What time is it? -Too early for you
I'll take the kids to school and then go shopping with Emine
I swear I'll leave him at the police station today
No, I have to take his clothes to the cleaners later
Alright, just don't complain later
l took him to the pub last night. I almost lost him,
but thank God I got help. You know, that guy that...
Alright, I'll tell you some other time
You be quiet, I'll talk to her
Comb your brother's hair, it's sticking up
lt took me an hour to get it like this
Don't yell, you'll wake him up
She doesn't understand,
she's an old lady
He doesn't care about the old man. He wants to do you!
Come on, he hasn't even thought about that
Don't you think l'd have noticed?
He spied on you just like you spied on him!
I didn't spy on him!
You've been acting out a soap opera for months
- For this afternoon, please - This will take three days
Please, it's really urgent
It's Saturday, we're closed this afternoon. No way, sweetie
It's a human issue
lf someone begs you there must be a reason!
Come on, it's important to her
Pass by later and knock on the grate
Just this once, got that? Nice suit, very fine fabric...
-Whose is it? -What's it to you?
He's hitting on you, he even knows how you like your coffee
These were in the pocket
-What's he doing with rocks? - He throws them at busybodies!
Oh, hello!
Right now?
l don't know, how can l do that?
Yes, that's a good idea
Where?
Alright, the same coffee bar. Fine
The same coffee bar!
Do you two have ''your song'' yet?
- Good morning - Good morning
- Sit down - Thank you
Would you like something?
-A coffee? -Yes, a coffee, thank you
Two, please
- How is Simone? - He was asleep when I left
l had to wash him last night. I saw numbers on his arm...
- From a concentration camp? -Yes
He took us here to the Jewish neighborhood
I wanted to tell you, I called a policewoman friend of mine
She said there's been no report of anyone finding an old man
- They know nothing about this - That's what I thought
She'll let me know if anyone reports a missing person
- I see you're getting involved -Yes, a bit
Thank you
- Milk? -Yes, a drop
No, l don't take sugar
- l can'tstay here long -Alright, we'll hurry
How is it that someone like you took a stranger home?
lt wasn't me. It was my soft hearted husband
He goes overboard when it comes to helping someone
In fact, it seemed odd. With your kids in the house...
What do the kids have to do with this?
No, I only meant that... it seemed rather strange
What did you think strange? What do you know about me?
It's true, I hardly know anything about you
I only know
that you take your children to school at 8 every morning
Your friend, who has black children, is always with you
I know that every night after you wash the dishes
you stay in the kitchen to smoke a cigarette
You put out your cigarette under the tap water
I know you often wander around the house at night
You go to the window and look outside
But I don't know what you see
- Good morning - Good morning
- l'd like some information -Certainly, what is it?
Would you happen to know
an elderly gentleman called Simone?
No, no one comes to mind
He's lost, he remembers nothing. He's staying with her for now
I think he's a concentration camp survivor
How can you say that?
He has those numbers on his arm
He stopped here in front of your shop last night
He knocked on the grating
as ifhe knew this place very well
He may be one of your customers
Are you sure his name is Simone?
lt's the only thing he remembers
- Did you make a police report? -Yes, but there's no response
Listen, I've worked here for a very long time
Maybe if you brought him here l'd recognize him
l'm sorry. We're not looking forany missing persons here
It seemed the name Simone meant something to you a minute ago
lt struck me because this lady's brother was named Simone
But it can't be him. Simone died many years ago
in a concentration camp
Excuse me, where is your car parked?
-Along the river - Mine is the other way
Goodbye
-Why was your cellphone off?. - It wasn't, I was at the bar
Maybe it didn't receive there
Look, it's on. I never turned it off
lf you say so
Didn't Simone go out with you this morning?
Oh sure, l took him shopping with me
- He wasn't here when I woke up -Where is he now?
-You said you'd stay with him -What did I say?
I said I was going to the cleaners, you stupid shit!
-You're really a ball buster! - l can never trust you!
I know you didn't make a police report! I'm sick of this!
- It makes me even sicker! - Then do something!
Take some initiative! Just one thing!
What am I saying? You can't even get on the day shift!
Give me time for fuck's sake! It's a new job!
Do you call checking the gas on trucks a job? Fuck you!
Is it my fault? You forget l lost the job the auto shop
to a family member. If it wasn't for the kids
l wouldn't be breathing gas fumes all night!
You could stop breathing for what they pay you!
Are you throwing money in my face now?
I've always had a job! Who gave you this house, huh?
If I'm correct, if your mother hadn't passed you the lease...
At least I had parents who helped us!
True, I didn't have any
But l'm not like you
At least I'm not like you!
Why? What am l?
Go on, say it! What am l to you?
I'm a failure? Am I a failure?
Right?! You're a real bitch!
My dear Simone,
After you, red is no longer red
The blue of the sky is no longer blue
The trees are no longer green
After you,
l have to search for colors in the yearning I have for us
After you, l miss even the pain
that made our love timid and secret
I regret the waiting, the relinquishing,
the coded messages,
our stolen glances in a world full of blind people
who didn't want to see
because if they'd seen us we'd have been their shame,
their hatred, their cruelty
l regret I haven't yet had the courage to ask your forgiveness
And that is why l can no longer even look inside your window
That is where I always saw you when I didn't
even know your name and you dreamed of a better world
Aworld where a tree was not forbidden to be a tree,
or for blue to become the sky
I don't know if this is a better world...
now that no one calls me Davide anymore,
now that everyone calls me only Mr. Veroli
How can l say this is a better world?
How can I say that without you?
l have to leave in a few days
l'm being transfered to the lschia branch
It must be a beautiful island
Yes. But not now
It's always like this
l'm never good at guessing the right timing
A few days ago, I thought this promotion would save me
lt's the last thing l want right now
It seems l always get what I want at the wrong time
Everything's fine as long as l'm dreaming of something,
but then when I try to make that become reality...
l don't know how to explain it, sorry, I know, but...
It's just that I...
l'd stay sitting on this bench forever,
even though l know it would never be possible...
Just look at how you're dressed
You have to be cleaner, more polite, better than other kids
That's easy if everybody else is like you!
Martina! Say you're sorry right now!
You weaned this kid on viper's milk!
Hello. May l please speak to
Mr. Veroli? Mr. Davide Veroli
-Who is this? -You wouldn't know my name
You don't know me. Tell him I'm Simone's friend
-Simone? -Yes
Just a moment
Mr. Veroli
is sleeping now, please call back later
You may also leave me your telephone number
Hello. We spoke yesterday. I have an appointment
-with Mr. Davide Veroli - Come in
You're not bringing bad news, are you?
Why bad news?
You never know. I expect just about anything from life!
Davide shouldn't be seeing you
However, don't agitate him. Diabetes! Heart! Depression!
His problems are worse than other people's! Understand?
- l'm sorry -You're telling me
Just the effort it takes for me to give him a pill...
There's nothing worse
then someone who refuses to take care of himself!
Stop putting on a show, Sara
Why don't you go make us some coffee?
''What's your name, what's your name''
Martina constantly asked me
The only name l had fixed in my head
was Simone's
I read it, I'm sorry
I thought it would help me to find you
In fact, you found me
Simone never read this letter
When you found me that morning
l was on my way to our meeting place
Simone and l had a secret meeting place
We left our messages there
Everything we couldn't say in front of anyone else
or on the telephone, we wrote
We hid the messages
between the stones of the fountain
l made you worry, didn't I?
Yes
Why?
Everything is ready
l don't taste things as I once did
Come here. Taste this chocolate
Did it break immediately?
l didn't notice, it's melting
Quickly?
-Yes - It's the grain
It must have an almost imperceptible graininess
Then once it's melted it must leave a sweet sensation
that lasts for just a moment,
and then the thing that counts is the bitterness
Yes, that's what it tastes like
Do you taste the perfume ofthe vanilla?
Yes, but...distantly
Distantly...
Yes, distance
You've transformed your passion into a hobby
You shouldn't treat your talent that way!
Do you know the pastry shop on Via Giustini?
-Veroli's? - Davide Veroli. It was his
He was a great pastry chef, an artist famous all over Europe
- Have you known him long? -A lifetime
l owe him my life
He was the one who saved me on October 16, 1943
You don't know what l'm talking about, do you?
No, I'm sorry
The Nazis...began at dawn and continued all day
to load entire families on to their trucks
Men, women,
old people, babies
Not only in the Ghetto, but in all of Rome
Davide did everything to warn as many people as he could
He saved a lot of children thatday
That's why he was given medals and honors...
For what it was worth...
-What did you do for him? -Why?
You don't know how truly privileged you are
He's never allowed anyone to make pastry with him,
much less give them his baking tools
Are you a pastry cheftoo?
l don't know, maybe it was... all the love in the letter
that never made me think... they were two men
I didn't realize it either, but then...
Only after l thought about it again...
Mama
- I'm on the telephone - lt's been an hour!
The second time he has to go home, why isn't Tom Thumb
-able to find the bread crumbs? -I don't remember
-The birds ate them - The birds, the birds ate them
But wasn't it pebbles he left along the road?
Everyone remembers fairy tales in their own way
Do you still have a lot of packing to do?
l guess so
He's a dead end
Look, he wants to sleep with you and then he'll take off
Anyway, he'll be in lschia and you'll be here
Alright, but would he spy on me for months just for a fuck?
Then tell him you're leaving everything to run off with him
to live your dreams of love
on the island. Watch how fast he disappears
Listen, l'm working overtime. Will you wait for me?
No, I'll take the bus
Fuck him!
Yes, have yourself a good fuck
It's the only way
to get him out of your head. Go home, make yourself pretty,
leave the kids to sleep at my house,
and that's the end of it
Don't make that face, it's not a tragedy
Look, if you do it well, do it very well
Come in
I tried to give the place some atmosphere
Maybe I went overboard
I'll put them out if you like
No, it's very nice
lf you knew for how long I imagined this...
And now you're here
and I can kiss you. I can kiss your mouth,
your face,
your eyes
You never stop, did you know that?
You're always moving
Day after day l watched you,
you became an obsession for me
l came home early just to watch you
I hid behind the curtains
l waited for you to go out to see where you went
lt was enough to know thatyou were there
and there were times l couldn't tear myself from the window
in the hope that I'd see you for one more instant
From that window?
Yes
With this transfer you'lI have a lot of responsibilities
Your life will change completely
A new place, a new job, new friends
-It'll be hard at first, but... -l'm not asking you to come
I can give you all the time you want
Why do we have give this up?
I know it's difficult for you
lt's difficult for you to be with me
But it's even more difficult for me to leave you
l owe you 13 euros
I'll give it to you at the end of the month
Hello. l've brought back his suit
Giovanna, come in, please. Hurry!
But I came only to give him his suit
- No, please come inside - Has something happened?
The air is too humid. It's no good for pastries
lt makes it harder to knead the dough
You didn't tell me if the children liked
the cake we made together
I'm sorry, they liked it very much. Emine went crazy for it too
That woman should go crazy with a good diet
Today is not the day to make pastries,
they're turning out badly
Are you sure he told you the truth?
lt wasn't easy, he didn't want to talk. But when I aimed
the gun at the baby, he told me everything
He made a list of everyone still hiding valuables
You can't go wrong. l'm not leaving. Is everything ready?
Yes, the German troops are here. In half an hour we'll surround
the Ghetto. What about that Jew who works with you?
-Will he warn anyone? -Who? That queer?
No, he's harmless. I keep an eye on him
lfhe dares to leave here...
I believe you! I'm going, but keep an eye on him
l saved many people that night
The same people who laughed at me,
who didn't believe in my sentiments,
who wouldn't accept that l could love Simone
And to save them, I lost him
I was at a crossroads, can you understand that?
But instead of running to Simone,
l chose to warn the others first
l had to show that l was worthy of them,
to save them first would be my redemption
Where did you leave the children?
With Emine
You mustn't trust anyone!
Every neighbor could be an informer, a spy!
-They're not in danger -Yes, they are! Run,
go home, hide them, take them as far away as you can!
Calm down, Davide, nothing's happened!
There's no time to lose, they'll be here any minute!
- The children are safe -Oh, the indifference...
That's your disease. You're blind and deaf
They've stupified all of you with their propaganda!
You must...
You must run and warn everyone you know, Giovanna
Before it's too late!
Alright, Davide, l will. Just calm down now
We're here with you, nothing can happen
l'm not afraid for myself
I can't do anything now
But you... you still have a choice
You can change, Giovanna
Don't be content to merely survive
You must demand
to live in a better world, not just dream about it
l didn't do that
Are you awake already?
I never went to sleep
Has something happened?
I've decided to quit my job
In two hours I'll take the kids to school
and then I'll go to work and give them my resignation
Why? What's the reason?
l'm sorry
l thought something happened to you at work
That you were forced to do this
No. This was my choice
l should have done it sooner, but I don't think it's too late
What will we do now? What will you do?
I want to work in a pastry shop
Help me, Filippo
Help me
- Here they are -Where's my other bag?
I'll go get it
- That's very well done - I know
Then why did you want me to check it?
To show you how smart I am!
l've never had a doubt
lt's me!
Hi. Did you find a job?
No, l had some interviews, but l'm too old to apprentice
Did you make these for the pub?
- No, they're for us - They're not fattening, right?
- No - lf you get any fatter...
You little...
He's downstairs,
he's moving out
Should l put raisins or almonds in the cookies?
Both
-We're done - Good.You lock up
My dear Davide,
Since you left us forever, Martina asks me of you often
She still calls you Simone. I'll tell her your story soon
Yesterday at work, for the first time l was asked
to make a cake by myself. Guess which one l made?
The head pastry chef didn't comment, but it was added
to the list of cakes to be made for Sundays
l think that's a good sign
Filippo was able to get on the day shift
lt seemed as if he'd won the lottery, he was so happy
and I understood that l can't ask more of him right now
You know, when l think of Lorenzo,
l'm afraid l'm already beginning to forget his face,
that I can't remember his voice anymore
What is he doing right now? Who is he smiling at?
l still need your advice, Davide,
one of your glances, one of your gestures
But then suddenly I'll feel your gestures in mine,
and I recognize you when I speak
Does everyone who leaves you
always leave part of themselves with you?
ls this the secret of having memories?
If that's true, I feel much safer
