>1,320,250
Thanks God I finally found you. I`ve been waiting you so long, you gave me without asking. Now I can put together the pieces of my Soul. I love you, Saverio.
Who`s this? Saverio? ...take off your coat...
Hello? Hello? Hello?
>Goodbye! > Bye, see you tomorrow.
- Hi. - So, what do you want? -Nice way to say hello... here is the bill.
Another one? i gave you the flat, furniture, tv and now the bills too?
You didn`t give me anything, you left, that`s different.
It`s 600,000 liras...
Right...You`re so selfish!
Did you go to the lawyer? Not yet?
So, a baby is not enough to her? She wants a ceremony? - Stop that!
You do as you like. As long as you don`t pay I won`t sign anything.
Why you act like this? You sell the house, you want the money, you don`t sign.. Threatenings, blackmailings, you are nuts!
No, you are nuts! I say that! You should get therapy!
Shut up! There`s a kid.. - You should think before..!
Right..you`re right! Fuck you!
How she dared... She would piss off even a saint!
Hello?... Hello?...Hello?
-Who`s it? -Wrong number...maybe.
Enrico, eat your pasta, come on
Hello? Hello?
Paola, I know it`s you. Stop it, ok? Hallo? Go to the hell!
One of these days I`ll show to her how to play...like this...
You gave me back my soul, thank you. Why don`t you open the door of my dreams? I love you, Saverio
Well, you can`t tell. Maybe somebody at work, they all like you. What was that guy`s name?
Who, Ivo? No, he got married. And he doesn`t work there anymore.
- Maybe it`s Riccardo`s wife? - I`ve thought about her too.
Did you read the horoscope this month, I am so jealous it always gets right about you... -No, what does it say?
Listen! Love: don`t let the doubts spoil your relationship...
...either you ignore gossips or you enquire until the end. Shall I read about finance?
(voice machine)
- It can`t be her... -No.
-The letters are all sent from Rome...
- And from the telephone you can hear tv in the background..
- I am scared. Who`s this person??
Don`t get anxious! It`s just somebody having fun.
He`ll get tired...
Ok, but what shall I tell to Riccardo! When he`ll this find out...he`s so jelous!
Yes, he`ll make a mess! You don`t tell him anything... just have a look around you, mh?
- You`re so beautiful. ...If I only were younger...
I didn`t offend you, did I?
- Come on, I could be your father!
- Don`t worry, I am ok.
-Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Here is, thanks madam, I`ll put on the tab, have a nice day.
So, what can I give today to the nice Gina!
-What can you give me? Some ``stracchino``. - There it is.
Do you want it all or just a bit?
- Ok...give me it all.
Can you understand mum? For two weeks, every day. And those calls... I am scared.
- Does Riccardo knows? - No, he doesn`t
This person is only annoying you. Don`t tell Riccardo, he wouldn`t understand...
- Mum, don`t mention Riccardo anymore, ok? - Ok, ok.
You`re a woman and can decide the way you want to live your life.
Don`t throw them away, put them somewhere.
If he insists, you call the police.
(DOORBELL)
Does Mrs Gina Frigeli lives here?
-Who` s sending them? - There`s a card.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Beyond the time and beyon the space. In the time and in the space. One month since our first meeting...One rose for each day.. I love you, Saverio
...one month since our last meeting?
Saverio?
Mum, the flowers!
Riccardo?
I don`t know who`s this person, I swear I don`t know him.
I didn`t say anything because I thought he would stop it.
What the hell are you saying? Who the hell is Saverio, eh?
What do you mean you dont know him! He writes all those letters and you don`t know him!
The man brought a basket of flowers, it looks like a tree!
-Let me explain... -What can you explain! how can he write all those letters! Who`s this Saverio!
- I`ve never met him... - So? - I was scared, I talked to my mother...
You talked to my mother, and not to me! Am I the last one to know what happens inside this house!
He`s writing it has been a month since you met, which month is that!, don`t piss me off!
Tell me who`s this Saverio! Don`t start crying, he doesn`t work! I`ll show you...
- I don`t know, I `ve never seen him! -Tell me who is he! - But I`ve never seen him!
(TV in background)
You are the only one I love, ok? Calm down.
I believe you my love, I do. I believe you, I believe you.
Honey, wait, the kid...
<<-Can you explain? - Ok, I`ll do. Today it`s my birthday...
...and so I decide to shoot you a little bit before blowing your soul...
...like you do with candles.>>
-That ass-hole... - Ricca`...
- I`ll break his butt... - It doesn`t matter...
Hi.
This was under the door...
``I can`t really say if it will be better when it will be different...
...but I can`t say that a change is necessary if it must get better in good or bad. I love you Saverio.``
And now what does it mean ``in good or bad``?
And now he can even get to the door? But who the hell is he?
You can`t do nothing about it Riccardo. You don`t even know who`s he?
Once you know who he is, you tell me, have look in the files, start to get justice involved...
....it will take long, ok? be prepared...!
Are you really sure that Gina has no idea who can he be?
No, I assure you that Gina doesn`t know really anything about him.
Ricca`, what are you doing?
What am I doing? What am I doing!
``Your colours are black, blue, and milky white...
...do wear also coral and I`ll appear to you. I love you Saverio.``
-This was hanging on the door? - Yes.
- Is it the first time? - No, he sent also flowers, gifts...
What should I tell you? He`s a pain, a psycho.
If you know how many there are around...
The police can`t follow all those that receive anonymous letters.
We are not so many, and with all that it`s happening!
-The law says that... - I know very well what it says!
We can make a denounce, for molestation, but, against an unknown!
But, it doesn`t sound very well!
After all, this person is not really threatening, these are poems!
What poems! He talks about bad things, he comes to the door, I have a kid...
Look, I understand you, but follow my advice, I`ve some experience...
...he`ll get tired, ok? In my opinion, it won`t take long.
No, I am not wearing that at all.
Tomorrow you wear the ribbon. I`ll take out that chicken...
You`re going crazy. And he really scares me.
-Tomorrow you wear the ribbon, you understand?
- Why don`t you wear that ribbon!
- What are you looking at? - You like it, uh?
-You look nice with your hair tied up. - Really?...Thanks.
- Gina... - Mh? - Isn`t that your husband?
Yes, it`s him.
Thanks. You`re a gift from heaven. 8167543. I love you Saverio. Why was he there?
- Hello. I would like to talk to Saverio.
Ah...! I`m Gina`s husband.
Listen, why don`t you stop it, you understand?
Hello? You understand? Stop it!
Hello, are you..? Hello? Hello?
What did he say?
He`s even having fun of me.
He hang up, but I... Hello?
Please, could you give me the address of this number?
What are you doing? You can`t get in trouble because of him!
What did you say?
Rovetti Amalia? Via Guido d`Arezzo, 18. Thank you.
- Where are you going, stop! - Leave me, I`ll show him!
- Good evening. - Does Saverio live here?
Yes, what`s your name?
Where are you! You ass-hole!
Where are you! Are you playing with the telephone?
Show me your face!
What`s happening! Who are you! What do you want!
- What...! - Show me... -Out! stop!
Where`re you hiding! You shit!
- Where are you! - Where do you think you are... Help!
-You shit! - Stop it!
- Where are you!
And so you are Saverio?
Sure, it`s you! It`s really you, you asshole...
Come here! You are not funny anymore, right?
All those flowers, those cards, and the gifts on the door...
She`s my wife! you understand it?
It`s not true. You are not married.
How do you know?! Come here!
Mind your business! How do you know that?!
She doesn`t have the ring... He wants to kill me...
He wants to kill me! He wants to kill me!
- I will kill you... -He wants to kill me! He wants to kill me!
You will not kill anybody!
> Thanks... >Don`t thank me...
>Sorry to disturb. > No disturb, I did my best..
>...also because of my affection to your husband. > Thank you so much...
>... and let me know. > I will.
My dear Starani
you have a big problem now
housebreaking
intimidation and beating
and the guy is also like that!
- Like what? - Sick.
He`s sick... psicho.
He`s sick and he`s been annoying for the last two months...
...why can`t they bring him to the asylum instead of...!
Where do you live... where do you live Starani?
Listen. The mother promised she would talk to the guy
and try to convince him
and in the meanwhile waiting that he get`s tired of it.
They are nice people.
Her husband was Prof Rovetti, the heart-specialist.
Maybe they`re nice people, but they`ve a gun.
Which gun? That was regularly registered
You`ve been threatened by a fake gun, from the husband`s personal collection.
Ok, right. What should I do now?!
>I don`t think the mother will keep the charge against you...
but from now on, we`ll call you anytime something happens to the guy.
> What should happen? > Hopefully nothing, but you should stay away from him, ok?
> You can go, thanks.
>Well? Who`s this woman?
- Her name is Gina.
- Where did you meet her?
- She works at the post office.
-Saverio, you understand what happened, right?
I don`t really need to start preaching, do I?
Then why don`t you try to behave?
You were doing so good! Come on, help me a little bit.
- I don`t want them anymore.
-Saverio, we`ve already tried to stop them, and you`ll feel bad.
Come on!
-...hundred. Thanks
- Yes?
- I am Saverio`s mother. Can I invite you for a coffee?
- Just a moment. Luciana...?
- The doctors say that maybe it was because of his father`s death...
but I had realized before that there was something wrong.
I know very well that Saverio has his own weirdness
but during these years, along with this sickness
he has also developed a special sensibility.
I don`t think it`s fair to turn against him
Yesterday your husband really scared us.
- Listen... he looks mean but he wouldn`t harm a fly, don`t worry.
- I was sure that as women we would understand each other. Thanks.
- One last thing...
- Today I met his mother.
What do you mean, and now the mother too?
Do you all think I am a puppet? - Quiet...they`re nice people.
- That guy is sick! - So what? Should we all be sick, then?
- I think we`re making a big deal out of it. - Sure, and now I am the bad guy.
- What did she want from you?
- She told me about his sickness. She also gave me...where is it...?
- Look, this doctor is taking care of him... in case we want to contact her.
Sure, we could also bring him on holiday!
Come on, I don` think he will harm us, let`s leave him in peace!
- In peace? And our peace? And my peace? How can you say that?
Do you all want to drive me crazy?! I can`t listen at all this...
> I work all day and then I come on and stand at all this...
- Do you understand? It drives me crazy! - You`re stupid! I told you.
- We could have gone to the police and see who he was.
-You wanted to play Zorro! - You know me... -You`re wrong!
- We can get all sorts of info about everybody, he`s was easy to find out.
-How can I help you now? Go on by yourself!
- It`s not easy. I can`t do anything. Nothing!
-I can`t put him in jail, they`d better put me...
I can`t hit him, I can`t put him in an asylum, nothing.
I can either ignore him or kill him, like he says. You get it?
- I am not a murderer! - I bet it. Ignore him! - Easy to say.
He follows my wife, writes cards, puts them on the door
..sends flowers and who knows what else it`s on his head!
Just ignore him! Could you do that?!
Take this.
...Give me the lighter.
Are you Saverio?
Yes.
-I brought you the change. - Which change?
The one I didn`t give you last time.
That`s true, we are short of change.
Thank you.
Excuse me, could you change six of these?
Excuse me, where can I find Dr Stefania Crispi?
- She`s in the wood-shed. - Do you have a cigarette?
- Have you seen her? - Who? - Marisa.
Did you see what she did to me? She bothers me...
and the way she walks and talks, she`s really annoying.
Well?
So, what shall we do? You were waiting for me, right?
Yes.
I`m going to pick up my kid at school. Do you want to walk with me?
But not so close to the school, ok?
I don`t know what to do. I am even taking sleeping pills.
Why are you so scared?
- You read newspapers right? - I understand but...
I am more worried he could harm more himself than other people.
If you consider his sickness.
But that`s so annoying.
You`re right. I would feel uneasy too.
But the letters don`t contain anything dangerous.
- Why I had to meet that stupid! - You are wrong.
Saverio is not stupid. On the contrary...
He`s sick because of an excess of intelligence, of sensibility.
Why do you write me those things? I have a kid, a life with somebody else.
- Yes. -So? Why all those fantasies on your mind?
Fantasies?
You can call them fantasies
but if I feel that way there must be something true.
What do you mean?
Are not feelings true, for you?
>We can control our emotions, but they can`t.
They are always exposed.
It`s like they have no skin.
The skin is our last border, then we face the world. They have no borders.
Like children, you understand?
-Could he come here? -Sure, but that`s not easy.
The rooms are limited, and this is a charity community.
It`s difficult to help people who don`t want to be helped.
Flowers are words of God spread around the earth
they mark the borders of life and give a shape to the world.
This is why I am looking for you.
- Nice! - What? - That`s nice!
Do these words really belong to you?
They belong to everybody.
- There`re many people like him there. - What did she tell you?
She said he`s not dangerous she calmed me down
we shoudn`t be scared.
She told me that he`s in love with you but not the same way we are
He sees you like a medicine.. yes...and you laugh.
Tell me the truth. Are you really calm or you pretend to?
What should I do? I can`t do anything, I behave
I read the letters, you meet him, what can I do?
What did he write in the last one?
That you are the angel of salvation, and that he will marry you.
Good for him. I`ve been trying for the last four years!
Drops. Drops or I`ll hear the devil`s voice.
Drops of devil and powerlessness.
Powerlessness and dead sex.
Silent medicines are the poison of my silence.
I would like to drink your mouth.
My womb gives out.
I am falling, Gina. Catch me. I love you.
After 2 hours, they gave me appointment for next month
how can you live like this?
What should families with a crazy son do then?
- What are you talking about? - Sure!
They closed all the asylums they go around in the city, no facilites.
We are talking about something else! What do I care about crazy people?
That`s the problem. We don`t care about anything
we mind our business and everybody is happy.
- I don`t really understand you. - Yes, but I do understand you.
- What are you reading?
``Resurrection``, from Tolstoy It`s very nice.
There`s no need to say it`s from Tolstoy.
What`s the matter?
Nothing, come on...
You play the smart girl, ``it`s from Tolstoy, it`s nice``!
Did you read it?
Who gave it to you? Saverio?
What?
I can`t understand If I am turning a saint or an ass-hole.
Goodnight.
- Listen, I really can`t. - But I must deliver them.
Give them to the first woman you meet.
Do what you want but take them away, thanks.
Alright. Everyday there`s something new.
So what?
What`s wrong about that?
I don`t think about those kind of things.
Why don`t you pretend that I am not sending them
but they are coming to you.
And the letters, why do you still write them?
We are meeting almost every day.
I must go now. Ok, ok, bye.
Something at Porta Portese I sought,
about you I thought and a flower I brought. Love, Riccardo.
Love rhymes and thanks
will start like rays
departing from the great sphere
and the light will enter into their body through their hands.
I`ve not been reading poetry for longtime. You are good.
I like them a lot when I was a girl.
I liked one... which was it...
``Everybody is alone...``
Why you are with him?
Why are you with him?
Because I love him!
Because he`s the father of my son.
I like him, even if somebody think`s is rude.
- To who? - To everybody.
Since I am with him everybody is against me.
My family, my friends.
My family almost doesn`t speak to me.
I disappointed them.
First I quit my studies
then I stayed with a lawyer
but then I met Riccardo and so...
In order to find somebody there must be somebody you lose.
Do you know that sometimes you really surprise me?
Why?
Because everybody say you are crazy but I don`t think that at all.
I feel good with you. You heal me.
Then it`s really true. You are completely crazy!
Put back whatever you took!
I am talking to you, I saw you, put back whatever you took!
Can`t you hear me? I am coming over there.
Excuse me.
- I am talking to you! - What do you want?
Whose is this? Is it yours madam? Yes, it`s mine!
You shoud mind your business you ass-hole!
- Stop it, don`t kill him! - Take care or next time you`re dead!
Saverio! Saverio!
Wait, don`t go away. Don`t worry, I won`t harm you
I just wanted to tell you I am sorry about what happened
Why don`t we have a coffee together?
I can`t drink coffee.
Fine, you drink something else. Come on, don`t worry, let`s go.
I thought about that. We need to talk, quietly, ok?
So we know each other better, ok?
For example, what do you usually do on sunday?
- Where is he gone? - To the restroom!
Since half-hour..
I feel so sorry him.
So sorry. He`s so nice and cute.
Yes,he`s cute. But he`s sick.
Where`s the girl?
She`s playing outside! Is she playing?
- Should I get worried?
- Save`! > Jessica!
Jessica! Jessica!
- Where is she? - I don`t know!
Jessica!
Jessica! What are you doing? Come to your dad!
You can`t do this, calm down, ok? - Come on, you read newspapers right?
Nothing happened, ok? It`s because of the children!
It`s not fair from you all this!
Listen, you either play zorro or the pope.
To me it`s fine as long as it is your business.
But do me a favour. When you go out with my family you leave him at home, ok?
Let`s go, Enrico.
I didn`t think you would act like that.
What do you mean?
I don`t know. Everything looks so different to me.
Before you were so nervous ...now you are serene. That`s it.
It`s not so easy, you know?
Nobody here wants to help you.
> Well Saverio, we arrived.
Are you still convinced?
- Yes. - Wait here.
- Good evening Urbano. - Good evening.
That is the guy I talked you about.
How is he?
He`s fine!
Are you sure he`s not dangerous?
He`s a nice guy, he needs help, or I would not ask to you.
I can`t pay him. He can come here whenever he wants, he learns the job
...but no commitment at all.
No problem. He doesn`t need that. His family is wealthy.
Thanks!
Please, don`t tell my husband. I am doing a favour to the guy`s family...
But I don`t want problems..
I still have my own ones, let`s work in peace, ok?
His name`s Saverio, he lives close by.
you say when he could come here... - Whenever he wants..
- Look, these primoroses need water everyday. -They look like carrots..
They look like carrots but they`re flowers, it`s spring.
This little plants doesn`t need much water or it gets drunk.
- And what is this? -This is peat, do you know?
- It looks like shit. - Yes, there`s some shit, from cows.
My thoughts turn to life, you`re born in the corals
dressed of perfumes, adorned with butterflies
and you found me in the garbage.
I`ve grown among traps of fear and lead in my feet
the fate kissed me
harvest of corn and fruits full of magic
that spread drops of life in the shadows of the sun.
I love you. Saverio.
Hi!
Well, it`s going well, is it?
Yes, it`s going well.
See, it`s just the beginning.
Urbano says you are good at this.
Gina?
I`ve something to tell you.
I`ve never kissed a woman.
Gina, give me a kiss.
Please.
You don`t know about that! It`s not his house!
- Whose house is that! - It`s illegal!
That`s not true, they also gave me the first floor!
-It`s government property. -Ok, and I am paying the rent.
-If they want they can demolish. -Sure, why not...?
>I wish they would, so this story stops.
>The beach is a mess, the sea is polluted!
You build a nice swimming pool! Who cares? It`s government property!
You laugh! Do you know how much it costs now?
Right! I would sell it!
And I would send you to bath at Trevi`s Fountain!
Gina, what`s going on?
Excuse me, I take a breath of air.
Shall I go with you?
No thanks. > Are you sure?
Damn!
- What`s the matter with you! Nothing...
I told you I wasn`t feeling well. The stress, the smoke.
-Shall we go home? -No.
Go back inside. I will come soon.
Don`t bother, they`re useless now.
Can you understand me? No...you don`t.
You are all the same.
You are all the same, all the same.
My hand slides fast on the white page, my thoughts become lighter
my thoughts become alive
Free thoughts pass through my hand
With your presence the fragments of my soul frame back together
Thank you. I love you.
Saverio!
Let`s talk man to man.
Until now I respected you, I tried to understand
I can`t do it anymore.
You should make an effort too. I can`t stand it anymore!
Since we met you I can`t understand anything!
My son, Gina feels bad, she doesn`t laugh anymore, you understand?
Leave us in peace! Stop it, stop it!
Now I don`t fear anything. Your mother...
the police the doctors. If you are crazy, I can get crazy too, ok?
Stop it! Leave us in peace. Stop it!
Goodbye, I must go to work.
Bye, Saverio.
- Hello? - Gina? - Hello?
..Wrong number.
I must talk. I must talk.
I must talk you. Gina!
Gina, I must talk to you!
I told you, today I can`t. There`s a friend waiting. Hi Rossana!
Please, or I`ll feel bad.
Please, bring me with you, or I feel bad, bad!
Ok calm down. Calm down.
This is Saverio, he`s coming with us.
I love you.
I love you!
- Please.. - I love you!
-Be good, calm down! -I love you!
I love you!
Stop it!
Gina! What`s going on!
Let`s go home please. I can`t stand it anymore, anymore.
- Calm down, what happened? - I want to go home
Santa, go away.
Saverio, what`s going on?
Saverio, can you hear me?
Blood! Mum, blood!
Saverio, for God`s sake!
I`ll take care. Calm down. Don`t be afraid.
Hi! What`s happening? Where`s the child?
He`s with your mother. - Why? - He`s fine!
- Why are you here, what happens? - We must talk.
-What`s going on?. -Riccardo...I...
- Tell me what happened. - Please help me, I did something stupid.
I didn`t realize how stupid it was. You were right, please help me, I can`t stand it anymore!
Don`t leave me, I swear I didn`t mean it, I swear.
I live my soul into my eyes the hot wind of those who live below
life without air my body like your body
but now that I found you it`s like fresh water
and clouds travel fast and everything is consistent ( i love you)
but if it must change let it be necessary (i love you)
even if precarious good or bad life is not wasted.
We won`t close each other in a dream
everything turns into wings of life
You are the angel sliding... a golden spot hanging...
Young man!
Away, I am sick!
- I am sick! Drop that tool, or somebody gets hurt.
Come on, be good. I won`t even put the handcuffs.
I am sick! They`re against me!
Put this on.
Don`t worry, it`s finished.
-I can`t stand it anymore! -It`s finished! -They`re against me...
Dear Saverio, they told me you like the community and you feel better.
These good news give me the courage to write to you.
I am very sorry about what happened and that you suffered so much
but I swear I didn`t want that nor could I imagine all what passed.
Sometimes life is strange and let appear things the way we would like them to be.
You were right when you said
``In order to find somebody there must be somebody you lose``
I think I know you enough to be sure that you will make it. Gina.
