CITIZENS OF THE WORLD
MONDAY
Professor!
Are you memorising it?
Sorry.
Ricky...
- Want some? - No, thanks.
They're in season and they're good.
I don't want any.
Your loss.
You don't have a clue.
All that fruit must be bad for you.
Fruit's not bad for you. Who told you that?
Come to the post office with me and I'll pay you back what I owe you.
OK.
What's going on? Why isn't she calling you?
Unbelievable! Four counters, but only one worker.
Four coffees?
Then she's not alone.
Should we just leave?
We're here now.
You're next, she has to come back.
I hope so.
- Take this for now. - No need, Giorgio.
It's only right. Debts should never be left hanging.
In fact, let me go and pay.
Fabrizio, how much is my tab?
Let me check.
70.
- 70? - Yes.
- I'm short 20. - Give me 50 for now.
They've bloody cheated me.
What do you mean?
- Let me see. - Check it out.
Look.
Let me see.
All right...
"Income tax deduction 36.72.
"Accident insurance deduction 22.05, minus 36..."
- Do you know her? - No, I wish I did.
Go and talk to her. Run!
- What am I gonna say? - I don't know, say something in Latin.
- Fuck off! - That's not Latin.
Never mind.
OK...
"Accident insurance deduction 23.60."
It's correct. A total of 420.
- They didn't cheat me? - No.
Less and less every time.
Goddammit! What the fuck...
Our streets are filthy because of people like you.
- You expect me to clean up? - Real nice!
Good thing you're a dying breed!
How dare you!
- Relax. Ignore him. - Did you hear him?
He ran off, did you see that?
Do you want some wine?
- White, OK? - OK.
White wine.
Professor, we gotta get out of this country.
And go where?
- All Italian retirees leave. You know? - I know.
I get the guaranteed minimum pension.
Be thankful! You barely worked!
Mind your own business.
I can't do shit with that pension.
In other countries, you live a decent life with that pittance.
It's not that simple.
That's easy for you to say. You get a good pension.
A good pension?
After rent, bills, expenses, I'm penniless.
- Penniless! You buy a ton of books. - So what?
I'm penniless, and I taught Latin and Greek
to hundreds of girls and boys...
for years, you know?
Do you think they remember?
- They remember. - Whatever.
They sure do remember.
Who's there?
Abu, I'm showering. You gave me the keys, remember?
- What a pain, hurry up! - One second.
He asked if he could take a shower now and then.
He's here every day, dammit!
Come on!
- I left the keys here. - OK.
What's that?
- A gift for you. - No, I have tons.
- It brings good luck. - Yeah, right!
Whatever...
- Have you eaten? - Yes.
Take these.
- Thanks, Giorgetto, bye. - See you later.
TUESDAY
- Hi, Simona. - Hey, Giorgetto.
Remember that guy who had
a retired brother in Santo Domingo who was living the life of Riley?
- I met him here. - I don't know who that is.
A friend of your uncle's had a retired brother in Santo Domingo.
Do you remember?
Not at all.
- But I'll give you my uncle's number. - Good.
Give me a scratch card, too.
Let's see...
- Bye, Simona. - Bye, Giorgetto.
Hi.
So...
Simona's uncle gave me this number.
He lives in Tor Tre Teste.
He's in the know, he has a retired brother in Santo Domingo.
We'll talk to him and get some info.
Tor Tre Teste? Christ!
Giorgetto, I get you...
but this is our world, we were born here, everyone knows us.
Who knows us? Who?
You know, our bar friends...
Those arseholes? Some friends!
There are some worthy people, too.
Camicetti, for example.
Camicetti! Give me a break, he's moved to Tuscania, we never see him.
Well then, there's Mario and Cesare!
Right, Cesare.
How long since you last spoke?
A year, maybe more, he never calls me.
- Never drops me a line. - No shit, he's dead.
Dead? Cesare?
And you didn't tell me?
You were in the hospital with a broken arm.
- Then I forgot about it. - You forgot?
I almost told you once, but you were so cheerful,
and I didn't want to ruin it.
How did he die?
He had a heart attack at the racetrack.
Dammit, Giorgetto!
If I die, are you not going to tell anyone?
What's that supposed to mean? Of course I would.
I would, for real.
I would.
If you want me to.
WEDNESDAY
Where are we?
I don't know. It said 11 stops, so this has to be the place.
Are you sure?
God, Giorgetto...
Let's go home before night falls.
Sure, we'll ride the donkey home.
We're here, I tell you.
One kilometre from the bus stop, there's a villa with a yard.
We can't miss it.
- Where's the damn villa? - The villa...
That way, a kilometre away.
- Fine. - Let's go.
Giorgetto, there are nothing but villas with yards here!
He has a motorcycle out front.
- There are scooters all over. - A motorcycle, not a scooter!
Fine, a motorcycle.
Let's go this way.
Here it is.
A motorcycle!
Hello!
Down, Joey, be quiet!
Don't be afraid, he doesn't bite.
I'll open up.
- Come in. - Thanks.
Thanks.
It's a real beauty.
Not a beauty, a dream!
- It's cool. - '75 Triumph Bonneville.
It's an English legend.
- Come in. - Thanks.
- It's steaming today. - Sure is.
Do sit down.
- Please. - Thanks.
- Thank you. - Here we are.
- Nice house. - Yes, it is.
Houses used to be made well.
My father and brother built it with their own hands.
The one who's in Santo Domingo?
Santo Domingo? He's in Terracina.
He has a construction company, sometimes he builds illegally...
Stuff like that.
- Can I offer you a beer? - Sure.
I thought so.
I'll be right back.
Who the heck is he?
He knows shit about Santo Domingo.
Didn't you talk to him?
I didn't want to ask on the phone.
- What did you say? - That I wanted to talk.
He had you come all the way here not knowing what this is about?
Apparently he has nothing to do.
Like us.
Here you go.
So...
One...
- Two... cheers. - Cheers.
Perfect.
Who are you?
I'm Giorgetto, he's the professor.
- Attilio. - Nice to meet you.
- Hello. - Hello.
- A professor? - Retired.
Ah, I see.
So what's this about?
Nothing.
- Nothing? - Well, you see...
We wanted to leave...
- And go where? - Abroad.
With our measly pension we might live better abroad.
Leaving is great.
I always dream about it.
I went to Afghanistan when I was young.
- With my motorcycle. - No way!
One hell of a trip, with that bike.
- I've seen a chunk of the world. - You don't travel anymore?
I've settled down,
but I'm always near the sea.
I was a lifeguard in Ostia,
then I worked for my brother's company,
then I learned how to make necklaces,
bracelets, earrings...
And now I restore and sell antique furniture.
Mid-century stuff, some weird things.
Come and take a look at this.
It's a totem pole from the Cherokee tribe.
Check it out.
The Spirit of the Great Plains.
- Nice. - Really nice.
Nice.
- And that? - He's got a good eye.
This is cool: it's called a didgeridoo.
It's an Aboriginal Australian instrument.
They use it for sacred ceremonies.
It's like a horn.
I'll play it, have a seat.
Let's see if it still works.
Here.
Hold that.
Damn!
I think the wax has melted.
I haven't played it in ages. It's a beauty, all handmade.
Really nice.
All really nice, special stuff.
So you don't have a pension?
No.
Why the long faces? Want some pizza?
I thought so.
- I'll go and get the pizza. - What?
Here, no drinking on empty stomachs.
- I'll put it here. - Thanks.
I heard about this thing, I'm interested, too...
I heard about lots of retirees
going abroad because they can live better.
With the exchange rate...
But you don't have a pension.
- Enough about my pension! - Drop it.
I can leave anyway!
I'm a citizen of the world. I'm a free man.
Plus, these bracelets and stuff that I make,
- I can sell them anywhere. - Sure.
Not to mention import-export
of Mid-century stuff.
To hell with your shitty pension! No offense.
- You're right. - Right?
Let's go... but where?
Right! Where?
We need to figure it out.
I know the right person.
Rest assured.
Hello.
- Morning. - Morning.
- You can come in this way. - Thanks.
Come on, Joey.
Stay there.
Carry the mirror.
Here.
One hand there. Grab the other side.
Careful, this mirror is delicate.
Good.
Easy!
Stay focused! Come on.
- Go in this way. - You OK?
Careful.
I'll get the table.
- I'll guide you. - Easy!
- I can't see. - I'll guide you.
- So heavy. - Watch the step.
Careful!
- Move faster. - Joey, get out of the way.
Good.
- Where? - To the left.
- OK. - All right.
Here you go.
Lovely.
Hold on.
Turn it.
That's right.
- What a masterpiece. - Wonderful.
You did an amazing job. Congrat...
- Oh, no! - What's wrong?
The mirror shakes.
- That's not good. - Well, it's an antique.
- That's the beauty of it. - No...
If it shakes, then it'll fall and break. That's no good.
I'm a professional, if anything happens, call me.
Just call...
- And I'll fix it. - We'll see...
- Where does it go? - I haven't decided yet.
Leave it here, we'll handle it. Thanks.
Is the professor in?
I wanted to ask his advice.
I'll call him.
- Have a seat. - Thanks so much.
Bye.
- Sit down. - Have a seat.
Name a consumer good.
Beer, sir.
Small beer, 33 centilitres, all right.
1.03 euros in Sofia, 6 euros in Geneva.
But beware, it's not just about purchasing power.
There are other essential variables to keep in mind.
One: safety of the country.
Conflicts underway, the police system,
lack of basic human rights,
xenophobia, because you'll be foreigners there.
And then there are natural hazards:
earthquakes, seaquakes, volcano eruptions...
For example:
Australia.
Lovely country, full of perks, but...
the surrounding sea is full of box jellyfish.
- Ever heard of it? - Maybe he has...
- No. - No.
A tiny animal whose sting can kill you in five minutes.
So, be careful.
- Hear that? - Two...
Do they have a convention with Italy
regarding taxation on retirees?
Plan on getting married?
- To who? - Watch out...
In Malaysia, another lovely nation,
millenary civilisation, and natural paradise,
the convention is restricted
only to those who've married a local.
Otherwise, you still have to pay taxes in Italy.
No, forget it.
Three: the climate.
Northern Europe, for example,
great social model but... it's dark.
You'd be depressed in a flash.
No, no.
Four: language, religion, traditions.
We're no longer spring chickens.
At our age...
the ability to adapt is limited.
Life is change, change is life, but beware...
every change is anxiety-inducing, remember that.
An overly-extreme delta leads to...
a crisis of the self-structure.
So...
considering all of the available data,
I'd recommend a trifecta of countries:
Cuba, great climate, good music,
amazing women,
but, speaking of women,
you'll have to marry one, due to the convention.
Bali, gorgeous Indonesian island,
great climate, social peace,
cosmopolitan people,
and last but not least...
Bulgaria.
Nearby...
excellent purchasing power,
continental but mild climate.
Vast lakes, wonderful natural beauty,
and I must confess, I have a soft spot for Sofia.
It's a beautiful city.
Come on!
Time to step out of your lairs.
If you go forward, you'll lose your inertia equilibrium,
it's a scientific fact.
You're unbalanced by definition,
"that e'er the lower was my steady foot."
It's risky.
But risks must be risked.
You must believe in something.
I, for example, believe that...
if, as I suspect,
my wife has gone out,
we can have some grappa.
- Thanks, Professor. - Thanks.
- Thanks.
Guys, get to it! Eyes on the prize.
Cheers!
- It's good. - Strong.
- My goodness. - Let's get going.
Another glass.
No, I have to drive. We're going to Rome.
I'm not driving.
Impressive, this was in a barrique for 25 years.
You can taste each year.
Don't disappoint me.
Fine, just this once.
I doubt they'll make me do the breathalyser!
Again, cheers!
- Thanks. - Cheers.
Cheers to Sofia!
He makes it sound easy: Go to Bulgaria where beer is cheap.
Why the heck would I go to Bulgaria?
He mentioned other places, too, like Cuba.
Yeah, but Cuba's like Bali, we'd have to get married.
- Bali... - Not interested in Bali?
Where the heck is it?
I can't be on a plane for more than two hours. I'll jump out.
A place nearby would be better,
so if we change our minds, we can come back.
If that's the case, then let's not even bother!
Each goes home, and the end.
Here, go and see if our sandwiches are ready.
He said he'll jump out of the plane!
Idiot!
We could get to Bali by boat too, right?
- Yes, but it'd take forever. - Not by sailboat!
There must be a ferry or ship.
To be honest, the sea...
bothers me, actually it scares me.
I like looking at it from far away,
but the immensity of it...
- Scares you? - Yes, it scares me.
- Yes. - Give me the change.
Change? I put in five euros of my own, I even told him off.
- 25 euros for 100 grams of pork? - Yep.
- Insane! - We could buy a scooter in Bulgaria.
Fucking hell!
- It's tasty, though. - Sure is.
- Hey, Ma'. - Attilio, hello.
Hello, girls.
- Hi, Pi'. - Hi, Atti'.
Hey.
- Honey. - Hey, Dad.
- Morning. - What's wrong?
Nothing, I just wanted to tell you about something.
I can't now, I'm busy.
OK, but call me later.
- Got it? Bye, kiddo. - OK.
Good day.
Hello.
Are you new here? I've never seen you before.
These kids are great with colour.
- Go. - I'm going.
- Bye. - Bye, Attilio.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Call you later. - OK.
Professor?
Tell me what you think of this, I might add it to the list.
Add it, yes.
What do you think: four or five?
- Four. - Four?
- Four, - OK.
Do it.
Should I?
- Professor! - Hello.
- Scolozzi, senior year, remember? - Scolozzi...
- How are you? - Senior year... fine.
Gosh!
Remember you said that Carolina and I were a nice couple?
Yes.
- We got married. - Great!
- We're so happy. - I'm glad.
Me too.
Scolozzi, remember any Latin?
Tityre, tu patulae recubans sub tegmine fagi...
Silvestrem tenui...
- No? - No, I don't remember.
- Nothing? - Nothing.
Oh, well.
- How are you? - I'm fine.
I'd like to go away on a trip.
- Nice! - Yes.
- Where? - I don't know, there are lots of...
places in the world, Scolozzi.
I don't know.
Nice seeing you, have a good trip.
You too.
Giorgetto, listen here...
they've discovered water on Mars.
If there's water, there's life.
- What kind of life? - Who knows...
Martians!
Martians, my arse! There's no life apart from us.
We're the only evolved planet in the universe.
Someone should go up there and take a look.
Why don't you go? I can see it now: "The great voyager"!
Quit laughing! I'm always up for travelling.
Actually, I'm leaving soon.
- Where the heck are you going? - Abroad!
To places so far away you don't even know where they are.
Apologies, Christopher Columbus, I didn't recognise you!
Fuck this, I'm leaving.
Giorgetto, don't forget your compass.
You've never even stepped beyond the ancient neighbourhood gate!
- You always piss him off. - Don't blame me.
- Step one: passport! - THURSDAY
- Got one? - No.
Wake up, Giorgetto!
We don't even know our destination.
You don't write your destination on the passport.
- No? - No!
A passport is valid in all countries Italy recognises.
- Get with it. - OK, how do I get one?
Go to the precinct.
- Scared? - No, I'm not scared.
- Do you have a criminal record? - Nothing major.
His landlord pressed charges.
- What for? - Nothing.
He hasn't paid rent in three years.
- That's non-payment. - Non-payment?
I repainted and rewired the place.
She should pay me!
Whatever, anyway... Step two:
the pension transfer paperwork.
- With all appurtenances. - Right.
- With what? - With all appurtenances.
Did you write that down? Yes.
Hi. Thanks, Giorgetto.
There was no hot water in the shower, I fixed it.
- Hello. - Hi.
He showers nonstop.
Another one?
Hold on...
Does this stuff sell?
Not so much.
- Have you eaten? - No.
Sit down.
Sandro, some chicken and chips.
- Is chicken OK? - Sure.
He's a good kid. If you need a hand, call him.
- Does he live with you? - I have no room.
- No, he lives... I'm not sure. - Anyway...
Step three: the taxman.
Taxation, fines, outstanding debts.
Got any outstanding debts? Look into it, write that down.
- Another important thing: the doctor. - Doctor?
Yes, get a check-up before leaving.
You can't leave sick!
Another important thing: the dentist.
Dentist? That costs a fortune!
I bet dentists abroad cost less.
Fine, cross it out.
- Yes. - I've got good teeth.
- Cross it out. - OK.
And last topic...
Listen up, focus.
Personal goodbyes, loose ends,
I don't want any fucking part of it, it's your business.
But let it be clear...
we know when we're leaving,
but we don't know if or when we're coming back.
Jesus, you're so old-fashioned.
Leave me alone.
Well then, cheers! Shall we toast?
To...
- Our trip. - Our trip.
Eat up.
- Appurtenances... - Yes, appurtenances.
SOCIAL SECURITY OFFICE
Come in.
I need to transfer my pension.
- Where to? - Abroad.
Where, abroad?
I don't know.
Also...
is it possible to get an advance?
No.
For the transfer, you have to submit a comprehensive request
listing where it should be sent, and then you have to wait.
- For how long? - Very long.
42!
- Do you read newspapers? - I do.
Then you're aware there's a recession.
- A grim two-year period. - Really?
Yes, very grim.
This affects interest rates in ways we're aware of.
How so?
Your bonds add up to 415 euros and 50 cents.
- That's all? - That's the nature of fluctuations.
Still want to withdraw the sum?
- If I can, yes. - Of course you can.
- Now? - No.
It takes 30 business days plus time to process the request.
Your copy.
Don't lose it.
- I won't. - Here you go.
- Thanks. - Goodbye.
Goodbye.
- Pour some wine on it. - Wine?
No, we don't have much wine, use vinegar instead.
Is this the vinegar?
- Is it strong? - No.
- A splash? - Yes.
Rosemary?
I've put it on.
Carolina?
Coming! Calm down, give me time to get here!
What is it?
Remember that boy who restored our mirror?
Yes, Attilio.
Do you have his number?
- Did the mirror break? - No, it's a personal matter.
Personal...
Fine, I'll get the number.
Here, I've dialled the number for you.
Bad for you.
That is bad for you.
- It's ready. - No.
Two more minutes.
OK.
Who's that?
Must be my daughter. Excuse me.
Hello?
Professor! Did the mirror fall apart?
No, never mind the mirror. The Azores...
An archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean.
It's the best place for you three.
And it's not too far either.
Impeccable banking system,
very healthy climate, they speak Portuguese.
Portuguese is like Italian, right?
Tourism is rapidly growing.
Since you have no pension, you could easily start a business:
a shop, a bar, a restaurant...
The best idea would be a hotel:
a few rooms, discreet, with tasteful decor...
But I have no experience with those things.
Come on, be enterprising!
You can learn: do some research and do it.
They'd give me a mortgage?
Of course! The banking system is impeccable.
Your friends...
with their pensions can be your guarantors, like a salary-backed loan.
You know, a small beer there costs 1.40 euros
and humidity is never more than 3%.
What about earthquakes, seaquakes, and jellyfish?
Nope, nothing!
Wars? Uprisings?
Not at all, it's a well-organised democratic republic.
Earthquakes, seaquakes?
Jellyfish?
Apparently not.
- Is it far? - No.
One question:
Are your pensions legit?
- Of course, why? - Just wondering.
- It's raw. - Raw?
I said two more minutes!
What'll you do with your dog?
I'll bring him.
- And how'll we get there? - Enough!
We'll travel our own ways and meet there.
FRIDAY
What now?
I just wanted to remind you that half of this is mine.
Says who?
Said Mum before dying: "The stand belongs to both of you!"
Then come work here, you never have.
Not true, I came a few times.
In prehistoric times.
Oreste, lend me 1,000.
- I'm going away. - Going away?
Fine, even 500 will do.
Giorgetto, get lost.
Leave!
Hello.
- Hello, ma'am! - How are the strawberries?
Delicious, so are the peaches.
I'll take these.
OK.
How about this?
It's super popular this year.
It's got a pocket.
It's... 30 euros.
Otherwise, we have this one without a pocket.
It costs a bit less, 25 I think.
Any plain suits?
Plain? Yes.
- These are too... - Be right back.
Here you go.
- That's nice. - Sure is.
- Really nice. - Waterproof cotton.
Fast-dry, stretchy and comfy.
- 80 euros. - 80 euros?
I can give you a little discount. 70 euros.
Know what? I'll take this, I need a pocket.
- For cigarettes. - Right.
- Isn't it great? - Yes.
Just what I needed.
You should've gone in.
Do you like Joey?
Yes, he's a great dog. Why?
I was thinking about going away.
I knew it, Dad.
- You've been still for too long. - Indeed.
Does it bother you?
When I was a kid it did, but now you're free.
- Where do you want to go? - I don't know.
Some nice island.
An island in the south?
No, closer, the Azores.
I was thinking of opening a small hotel.
Three or four rooms, fixing it up real nice.
- You have no experience. - So what?
As long as I'm enterprising, it's doable.
- I did some research. - What about money?
I'll find some.
But Dad...
Joey can't stay with me, my house is small.
I can't leave him on the balcony.
He needs to run around.
That's true.
You know what the problem is?
Things are getting worse for poor people like us.
You think you're poor, Dad? Give me a break!
Define poor.
- When you can't afford things you want. - That's life.
Poor is not having food, a home, or clothes.
You're not poor!
Whatever, go for a swim.
- Yeah, quit talking nonsense. - Go!
- I'm going.
Ca-va-lo.
The "A" is longer, more stretched out: Cavaaalo.
- Cavalo! - Cavajo!
No!
- Professor? - Ca-va-lo.
Bravo! Bravo!
I have an exercise for you.
Read with me.
"In my garden, I have four chickens.
"Three white ones and a red one."
- No, no. - Can you go slower?
Yes, slow down.
- Say it with me, OK? - OK.
"In my garden,
"I have four chickens.
"Three white ones
"and a red one.
"A red one".
Attilio, come back here.
- Is that your mum? - Yes, that's my mum.
- She's not in Brazil? - She was, but she came here.
- Sit down. - Great.
I'm Attilio.
I'm a friend of your daughter's.
Nice to meet you.
What are you cooking?
- I'm making churrasco brasileiro.
Churrasco brasileiro.
- Gosh. - Must be spicy.
Smells good.
Wow.
So good.
Bacon would be good in this.
What a heathen!
If you add bacon it'll cover all the other flavours.
But the beauty of this dish...
is having the flavours slip through your teeth.
Let's make a toast to Marisa, to Francisca
and to this wonderful dinner.
To your health!
Boys, from now on...
we'll only speak in Portuguese.
Or how'll you get by there?
So...
Let's speak Portuguese.
Bye, Marisa, thanks.
- Bye, Marisa. - Bye.
Well, Marisa...
Thanks for everything.
Take care.
- How did the professor say it? - Cavajo.
How do you say "hen" again?
"Galinha. Galinha."
The professor's smart, the best of all.
Holy shit!
This is a 50 euro fine!
We should split it.
The car is yours, you parked like a jerk.
So what? We all came together.
This is 50 euros!
Plus 50 euros for the Portuguese lesson...
Come on!
- You're right. - Fair enough.
- I have 20 euros. - I have 6.70.
This won't do. We can't carry on like this.
We need some funds.
For the tickets, research...
We need a cash float.
SATURDAY
Easy, those are delicate.
Don't you worry.
Can I take a look?
This is illegible!
It's legible, Professor.
Legible for you, not for me.
- What's the problem? - The problem is, with all due respect,
it's fucking illegible!
I think it's legible.
Is it?
You two are in cahoots.
Excuse me...
Do you think this is legible?
What do I care?
Great.
And that's why this country is in shambles.
The land of wishy-washy folks!
Anyway, it's perfectly legible.
Morning, Matteo.
- How are you? - Professor!
- How are you? - Fine.
- It's been a while. - Yes.
- Everything OK? - Yes.
I brought a few things.
- Let me see. - Some books I have to get rid of.
- Look. - What a pity.
- Getting rid of books is always sad. - Indeed.
Thucydides: "History of the Peloponnesian War". A great book.
Yes. Yes, indeed.
- Then I have this. - Pinocchio...
"The Adventures of Pinocchio"! A lovely edition.
- It is. - Art Deco era.
And I have this 18th century book, it should be worth more.
Well, truth be told,
in Paris and London, 18th century books are a dime a dozen.
You sold me this, you said it was rare.
- One of a kind, you said. - I sold you this?
Perhaps.
But look at the state it's in. What'd you do to it?
Well, I read it.
All right.
I can give you 500 euros.
- All right? - All right.
- OK. - Thanks.
Thank you.
- Hi, Ricky. - Professor...
- How much is my tab? - You want to pay?
- Yes, I'm leaving. - Where to?
- Ever heard of the Azores? - No, never been.
It's a beautiful place on the Atlantic Ocean, 55th parallel.
- Damn, that's far. - Go big or go home!
You're right.
- It's 130. - 130... 100...
Here you go.
130. Thanks.
Professor, compose yourself.
- Here you go. - Great.
Excuse me, you forgot these.
Yes.
I'm so scatter-brained.
- What is it? - Copies of a book I owned.
By Thucydides.
But they're bad copies.
- Yes, a bit fuzzy. - Indeed.
- Do you like reading? - Yes, and you?
I love it.
"Ut conclave sine libris ita corpus sine anima."
"A room without books is like a body without a soul."
Cicero.
- It's late, I have to go. - No.
- Why? - Can I walk you?
Actually, I'm waiting for a girlfriend to pick me up.
But we can meet here
tomorrow or the next day after 9:00.
- Thanks, bye. - All right, bye.
Goodbye.
I need a drink, please.
I have emphysema.
- Hear me? Emphysema. - Hush up.
Your lungs are clean. Lie down.
I've smoked for 50 years, I must have emphysema.
My liver hurts.
The liver has no nerve endings, it can't hurt.
But it does hurt.
It's swollen because you drink, but nothing serious.
Remember this wrist here? It happened years ago.
- A nasty fracture. - It healed perfectly.
Listen, I'm supposed to go away...
but I'm not ready.
I don't know if you're ready, but your health is fine.
You're a rock.
- What do you want? - What do you think?
Money.
- What for? - I told you, I'm going away.
I don't need much, but I need a cash float.
Going to a resort? Need some rest?
You do fuck-all every day.
I could live well on my pension over there.
- Over where? - Near Portugal, a terrific place.
Listen, I'd like to help you out...
but you gotta work.
A truck is arriving at 4:00am from Frosinone.
- Help me unload it. - At 4:00am?
At 4:00am.
Watch the stand for 30 minutes, I'm going to the bank.
And treat the customers well or I won't pay you shit.
Don't worry.
- Watch it! - Enough!
You never listen.
Oreste's not here?
No, I am. What can I get you?
- Can I have some chicory? - Chicory... here it is.
Not those.
Give me the ones underneath.
- Oreste always does. - It's the same.
- I want those, please. - Of course.
It's not the same.
- It's the same. - Absolutely not.
- No small leaves. - No, no.
Here you go.
- Giorgetto, how's everything? - Just great.
Where's that kid you know? I need a hand with something.
- Ponte di Castello. - Ponte di Castello?
- Don't forget about the cash float. - That's why I'm here!
- What's going on? - Nothing.
- That's perfect, that's enough. - How much more?
- Is this enough? - Yes.
Here you go.
The scale?
Hey kid, come here.
- Hi. - Hi.
I need help unloading furniture. I'll pay you 50 euros.
- OK, hold on. - Sure.
- Tell me if it's clear to go. - Yes.
- I can go? - Yes.
Give it to me.
Easy with that.
Lower it slowly.
Down... hold on.
OK, let go.
Good.
Leave it all here.
- Attilio... - Yeah?
1,400 total.
- And that's a good deal. - Good?
Fine, but only because I have to leave.
All right.
- See you later. - Bye.
Take care!
Let's go, Abu!
- So are you leaving? - Yes, we're going to the Azores.
They say it's nice.
I think I'll buy a hotel with just a few rooms.
I'll spruce it up.
I have no experience, but I'll learn as I go.
- You left too, right? - Yes.
- Where are you from? - Mali.
Mali!
Why'd you leave? There was no work?
There's nothing.
Once I went back home...
and it was gone.
A bomb.
My mother and grandmother died.
My siblings and I left.
How'd you get here?
By truck, by foot...
Then by boat. It took us two years.
What do you want to do?
Go to Canada and start a new life.
But I can't, I have no money and must stay here.
- Canada? - My brother's there.
He works, has a home.
- Do you have papers? - I have papers, but not money.
Money screws up the world.
Damn the person who invented it.
Anyway...
step by step.
- Here, thanks. - Thank you.
Abu, come here!
Let's go!
Quick!
Come to my flea market stand tomorrow.
Just ask around for Attilio's stand.
- What time? - 6:00am.
OK.
Right here.
- Bye. - Bye.
This is where you sleep?
Yes.
- Bye. - Bye.
Hey, baby! Come here, Joey.
Good boy.
- Hi, Fiorella. - Dad, look what I have for you.
- What? - Breaded cutlets.
Thanks.
Come in.
I can't, I'm meeting Federico.
- Who's Federico? - Relax, just a friend.
A good guy, don't worry.
What are you looking for? He's not here.
I'm going to pick him up.
So when are you leaving?
We haven't decided yet. I need to plan things.
I'm kind of gutted you're leaving.
Me too.
Maybe I won't go.
Why? Did you argue with your friends?
No, those poor guys...
When I tell them, they'll kill me.
- Come in for a second. - I can't.
I gotta go.
Anyway...
I'm glad you're not leaving.
Good.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Drive slowly. - Yes.
- Bye, Dad. - Bye.
- The whole truck? Watermelons, too? - Everything.
- Can I roll the watermelons? - That'll take all day!
Move it!
SUNDAY
- Hi, Giorgetto. - Hi, Simona.
- Did you ever call my uncle? - Never mind.
300 euros in scratch cards.
- For real? - Yes.
All right...
These...
- Hi. - Hi.
What are you doing?
Leave me alone.
I brought this.
From Friuli, it's really good.
Hey, Giorgetto...
I know you're afraid, I can tell.
But...
I get it, I'm afraid to leave, too.
- It's normal. - What are you saying?
Who's afraid? You think I'm afraid?
Have a drink.
Do you know what your chances of winning are?
- One in a million. - What the fuck do you know?
What the fuck do you know?
Listen...
What I know is you're a dumbass and you're afraid.
Not again!
I'm not afraid, you are. Like I said...
Yes, I am afraid.
See? Look at that!
- In your face! - What?
Bloody hell, 1,000 euros! 1,000 euros!
Tie it to the umbrella or else it'll move.
Tie it up.
- Hey. - Hi.
It's about time, we were going to lunch.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
- Got money? - Sure do.
- We have a cash float, too. - Really?
This is 500.
- What's this? - That's 1,000!
- Guys, we need to talk. - About what?
I don't want to leave anymore.
He's right, it's not a decision to be made ex abrupto.
Why, what happened?
He's having doubts, he's allowed to.
I'm fed up, you're like children.
Yes, no, yes, no... enough!
I've been thinking it over.
What?
Why don't we give him the money? What'll we do with it?
We could do plenty with it!
Right, you'll buy two kilos of scratch cards?
He needs to go to Canada!
- Give it all to him? - We can't take a cut.
So stingy, Giorgetto!
I'll do it.
- Hold on. - What are you doing?
This is for lunch.
- And this is for wine. - All right.
- May I? - Go ahead.
Abu! Here, hold this.
Come on, load the chair and let's beat it.
Come on.
Let's go.
- Hi, Joey. - Isn't he the best?
- Move over. - Attilio...
It's for you, to go to Canada.
For the airplane.
Are we hungry? I sure am.
Let's go.
Let's eat at Enzo's.
Let's go to Casaletto, the food's better.
True, but there's a wait.
Here we go again!
I said we'll eat at my brother's in Terracina.
- He has a restaurant? - No, he has a grill,
garden-grown vegetables, wine, and a pool.
Lucky him.
He's not answering! Where the hell is this arsehole?
Now he's an arsehole?
- He should've called before. - Right.
- I've never been to Terracina. - Same here.
They must make sandwiches there. Let's go.
Where are you going?
Over there.
There's fuck all over there.
Just like over here...
Ignore him.
Come on, Joey.
Come.
Joey, here!
Joey!
Move it.
Let's go.
Wait for me.
Joey.
- Come here, Joey. - Anybody here?
Anybody?
There's nobody in Terracina.
