He has never been to Venice. Just have to accompany him to the Grand Hotel.
It is a good hotel. Excuse me.
It will not bother You will see how he behaves well. He has been living with me for a long time.
That's why I know him well.
And your father will arrive tonight from Trieste and they will meet at the hotel.
- Everything is organized. - You better get fired.
Oh, Roger!
Dear Roger!
Do not do that to aunt.
Well, Roger, be good and remember everything I've told you.
Say hello to my dad. It is understood?
- Goodbye, Aunt Rose. - We'll see you soon, honey.
Your seat is that. Sit down.
Fasten your seat belts, please.
Wait a minute, honey.
Good Morning.
- Good Morning. - The reservation for Court.
- Court. - The father, Major Roger Court.
Arrives from Trieste this afternoon.
I know. Is this the boy?
- All right. We already take care of ourselves. - Thank you.
Well bye.
- It goes? - I have things to do.
This is the room number.
Please.
Come on, I'll show you the way.
Over here please.
Please.
One moment, please.
Thank you.
I hope you like the room. It has a nice view.
View to the Grand Canal.
Major Court arrives this afternoon on the eight o'clock train.
It comes from Trieste, is not it?
Yes.
Yes?
Roger!
Are you you, Roger?
Yes.
I'm dad Yes, it's me.
I have just arrived.
- Were you awake? - Yes.
- Are you glad I'm here? - Yes.
Did you buy me the gun?
With the drawing of the red skin?
Yes, with the drawing of the red skin, of course.
How could I forget?
Are not you already in bed?
You're dressed?
- Have you had a good trip? - Yes.
- And the aunt, was she okay? - Yes.
Stay calm. I'll be right away.
Keep in mind that I do not go by boat. They are more than 30 thousand liras to the hotel.
I'll take the vaporetto. It will take twenty minutes.
- You've dined? - Do not.
- Are you hungry? - Yes.
Bye little one. See you soon.
Rialto-San Marcos-Lido. Go to the cabin, gentlemen. Come on.
Rialto-San Marcos-Lido. Sit in the cabin, there's room. Ahead. Come on.
Quick, to the cabin.
Hey, Pescovitch!
Dear Pescovitch.
Because you do that? What's wrong? It's me.
The biggest Court.
- What happens? - Do not understand.
Rialto!
Come in, gentlemen!
Santa Maria del Giglio-San Marcos- San Zacarias.
Come in, gentlemen!
Santa Maria del Giglio-Gran Hotel. Come in, gentlemen.
San Marcos-San Zacarias-Santa Elena.
Bye little one. See you soon.
A match.
We've done it, huh?
I am sorry. You have to take things as they come.
I understand that the circumstances do not adapt to the positions of the principle.
We are not in Osco, debating in the elders' room.
And still, by my nature, I do not believe in the inevitable.
I, on the other hand, prefer to trust what is more likely.
Like Pascal.
Poor Pescovitch.
Will he die?
Almost sure.
Not from this, by God.
In any case, it will not be here. I would miss more.
He will die, yes.
When they have taken it to the other party.
Miscalculated the odds.
Then your chances may also fail.
Can be. But for people like me,
The risk we run, deep down, is much lower.
We have your traditional indulgence.
I'm afraid he's wrong.
We have progressed. We learned to be less forgiving, for example, Nuremberg.
Deep down, you have already repented.
You look smaller if you wear a big suit.
I thought we agreed to wait.
We have waited enough.
It's half past five.
They have taken my watch.
Good,
you expect the police to find you.
Maybe they start investigating in two or three days.
But you will be far away.
It will have the same effect on me.
Maybe a stronger smell. Who knows.
He was a brave man.
Will not he have remorse when he is killed?
Naturally.
But I will try to convince myself that, if it were not me who collaborated,
another would have done it.
People like me, without a country.
In the end, you always find.
A means of life you do not give us,
and there are so many unemployed, technicians like me, to hire
at the service of the future.
This disgusting future.
Still faith in the inevitable.
But the story is against you,
even the recent one.
The inevitable is sometimes postponed. For example, 1815, 1918, at 45.
The process continues.
Do you know Venice, older?
Not much.
See how high the water is on the steps.
Venice sinks in the lagoon 3 centimeters every one hundred years.
Do you know that once a year, at high tide,
Can you go in a gondola to the Plaza de San Marcos?
Within 600 years
the water will cover the floor of the church.
Then, a good day, we will go over in a boat
and we will see the dome below us
like a big shell.
That is what I understand to be inevitable.
You can never be sure.
An engineer, with some invention...
And so, your world and mine, sink.
There's nothing to do.
Oh, no, something can be done.
Something must always be done.
I respect you, greater.
I wish I had never seen Pescovitch in the vaporetto.
Or that I had not followed him.
Now I have no choice but to obey the orders.
I would like to convince them, so that they would leave him here when they take him to him.
I'm sure that later it would not give us problems,
not even me.
Good morning how are you?
Have you slept well?
My father has not come. - That means he'll arrive on the morning train.
No, no, it arrived yesterday afternoon.
He called me from the station.
They may have killed him.
What does it say?
What has gotten into your head, little one?
Then, why has not he come?
Wait a minute.
Call the director.
Do you know how to write?
- A machine, I mean. - Yes.
And fast?
Fast, not very fast.
- Miss, the cigarette. - Excuse me.
Tell me what happened, little one.
- What did you say? - Something absurd.
We already take care of ourselves, huh?
This man is the police commissioner.
He just wants to ask you some questions.
- Have you been to Venice before? - Do not.
Do not be afraid, son.
It does not have to.
And it's not the first time I've dealt with children.
So you're the son of Major Court, huh?
- Where is my father? - Quiet.
No one has disappeared in Venice, if he is really in Venice.
Yes it is.
We'll see that, huh?
We have telegraphed to Trieste and so far there is no evidence
that he has taken the train.
But I have talked to him. My name is.
How long have you not seen it?
Three years ago.
- How do you know he was your father? - Of course it was him.
He said: Roger? Are you you, Roger? He asked me if I had had dinner.
And he said it would take twenty minutes.
He also brought me the gun.
Did you recognize his voice?
His voice?
Clear.
Could not it have been anyone?
Anyone who pretended it was him.
But why?
Why?
Come here.
Where is your aunt?
I do not know. He left me his address.
He's in France on vacation.
Where is the address?
Now I do not find it.
It also had a leaky coin.
I have sent them to the child's room to look for a picture of the father.
He has done well. Who looks after the child?
Your mother is...
she's dead?
And where is?
I do not know.
Come on, let's see, it's better that you empty all your pockets.
We'll see.
The address you wrote here.
No, it was on a piece of paper.
What is this?
To make powder to shoot.
As it is called?
Nobody knows.
But I call it "element X2".
Oh my God.
Great, miss.
Thank you thank you very much. Give me.
I already told him he does not like her.
It does not look like...
Well, maybe I can serve.
You never know.
The boy-scout manual.
1949
Do not you think a bit...
- outdated? - The tables no.
What do you mean, weight and size?
From the morse alphabet.
Oh, yes, it's very useful.
Yes me too
I would like to know them.
Do not you know morse?
If I want I can leave it.
- Only for a few days. - No, thanks, I'm too busy.
Why do not you lend it to the lady?
But not forever.
Thank you, little one.
We will find your father.
If not today... tomorrow.
Stay calm.
We will hear from you.
There is nothing to worry about.
Nothing.
Wait. Taking.
- Buy some candy. - I have money, thanks.
I'm sorry to have bothered you. Do you want to drink something?
Thanks, very kind.
What are you staring at?
I'm looking for my father.
I do not know anything.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
Since we are neighbors, if something happens, call me.
It's good that he's a doctor.
I hope the medicines will be useful.
What are you looking for?
Are you lost?
Have you lost your tongue?
No, I have not lost it.
Oh, you can talk then. And what happened to you?
You're not Italian, right? You are American.
English.
Come here.
Where did you want to go?
Back to the Puente Grande.
Already.
Do you know where it is?
From there I will take the vaporetto.
Where's your mother?
At the hotel.
What hotel?
The Palace Hotel.
Did I show you the way?
You like ice cream?
Yes.
- I'll be right back. - Yes doctor.
There is a cafe here nearby. Come.
All the children have to eat.
Steaks, pasta, many cream ice creams.
Slowly, slowly, then you take another.
I told you a lie.
Oh!
I do not live in the Palace Hotel.
I'm in the Grand Hotel.
You are a strange child. I had one like you.
Many years ago, before coming as a fugitive to Italy.
Why have you lied?
I asked too many questions.
If true.
Maybe because I'm a doctor
and you get used to asking, does it hurt here, there...?
And you talk to everyone as if they were sick.
Do you work in a hospital?
You see it?
You also ask questions.
I worked in a hospital
when he was young.
But not in Italy.
Here I have a private clientele.
And his patients die?
Ever.
Do you now have a dying person?
So so.
I have some damn cases of typhus.
They may heal,
maybe not.
Do you know this game?
Pass-hand.
I told you two lies.
My mother is not here.
Then your father is with you.
Your mother does not.
He went.
Do you want to see dad?
Do you see what happens?
Again questions. Always questions.
I do not care.
I do not even know where it is.
Have you missed?
Venice is not an easy city.
Do you have a blade?
Here it is.
Cut these two.
When I was your age
and I became a new friend,
we put on our finger two rings of rope.
Now he does not wear any ring.
Things of the past.
I put a piece on your finger.
And another one to mine.
If you feel lonely,
look at the ring and think:
Now I have a new friend.
Well, now let's go, I'll accompany you to the Rialto bridge.
Your father sure is waiting for you, you'll see.
Yes.
- How are you? - If he sits down, we play a game.
- Not tonight. - Tonight.
- Good day. - Good morning, doctor.
Do not delay, doctor, that we do not have to wait for it.
We are already here.
We will give you a room with two beds when the older one arrives.
A good bed, huh?
If you need anything, ring the bell.
See you soon.
Why did you run away?
I did not want to.
I wanted to find my father.
You just can not, little one.
I do not trust them.
They are all the same.
We're alone?
I think so.
And here, have you looked?
You are not afraid, I know.
You are older.
Your mother should be proud of you.
Taking.
I return the booklet.
Have you already learned to transmit?
Already knew.
What were you playing?
To cricket.
But do you have the ball and the stick?
Naturally.
Where are they?
Off the field.
Yes I understand. Joe says it's a difficult game.
Is it your husband?
No no.
Are you also at the hotel?
No, no, I wish.
It's someone I know. An American.
He was a sailor during the war.
What does this mean?
Corner.
Will the police find my father?
I have to go.
- What is your name? - Roger.
Me, Roberta.
Tell me, will you find it?
Yes, do not be afraid.
There are things you do not know and nobody tells you.
A man, who was a friend of the English,
disappeared a few days ago.
His name is Pescovitch.
Once it was very important in your country.
It is not known what happened to him.
It may have been cut into pieces.
He has not been seen again.
Surely he has been kidnapped by his enemies, who are also my enemies.
Do you see it, little one? I am a fugitive.
I was forced to leave my country.
Your father was from the police. I knew too much.
These people do not have many scruples.
But I do not understand it.
He talked with me.
They say he was not the one on the phone.
But if it was not him, how would I know about my gun?
Listen out,
Listen, we're at six,
I ask permission and we leave together.
Life is less ugly if you are accompanied.
I beg you, Roberta,
find my father.
Well of course.
Find him.
Almost nothing.
Try it, at least.
Try to describe your father.
Imagine that he is sitting in front of you.
Do not like nails with red enamel?
No, better without glaze.
Does your father have a mustache?
No I don't think so.
Is high?
Is it possible that you do not remember?
He is taller than you.
Well, that's already an indication, better than nothing.
There is!
- Where? - It just happened.
Are you kidding?
Hurry.
We'll be right back.
- Because part? - Over there... no, over here.
One day you will learn a lesson.
- You would not be dreaming? - No, I've seen it.
I've seen it, I've seen it. Have you seen his face?
No, I have not seen her face.
There is!
Mr! Mr!
What happens? What forms are those?
Excuse me, it was a mistake.
I do not understand how you could have made a mistake.
It was his way of walking.
I'd like to know why I'm getting into this scrubbing.
Wasting time behind you.
Gardenias!
You mean your father limps like that?
Why so much secrecy?
This at least is a sure fact. We know something. We are looking for a man...
- Do you want gardenias, miss? - No no thanks.
How do you limp?
Are you limping to here or there?
Towards there, I think.
Did you get hurt in the war?
I do not know.
You do not know where your mother is.
You do not know what your father does.
You've had a very strange life, little one.
Do you have a father?
I had it before...
they will shoot him.
- And your mother? - Yes, who knows where it will be?
I was so young then, before peace.
Luza!
It's Luza.
Sit down for a moment Wait.
This is the little Englishman who needs a witness.
I think I have not seen anything.
Roger, this is Giorgio Luza.
Work at the station, where the gondolas are.
I asked him if he remembers a lame man who took the vaporetto when the Trieste train arrived.
He remembers?
He says he is too busy to remember certain things.
Then he can not help us.
He says he does not remember, but he probably does not mean it.
You're kidding, are not you, Luza?
You are the one who wants to joke
and wasting time.
I think that the evil ones have to be kicked out of our country.
Yeah, and I do not?
That's what you and I think.
And now they come with their methods to persecute us, even here.
The case of Pescovitch.
Because.
If you go to the police and tell them you've seen Major Court, a British subject,
One thing leads to another.
The important thing is that they move, right?
Bertha.
What happens?
I'm leaving.
So?
Goodbye.
I have not understood what you said.
Luza will help us.
How will you do it?
He did not see my father.
He will tell the police that he saw him.
But it is not true.
I know, but that way they will have to move.
I wish Luza had really seen him.
Although one does not believe much, it does not hurt to try.
Who?
Saint Anthony of padua.
He is a saint who always helps
who has lost something.
It will help you find your father.
I do not know what to say.
Tell San Antonio that we will make an offering.
What is an offering?
Do not worry.
You say it.
I beg you, San Antonio, find my father
and I will make an offering.
Have you also prayed?
- It's always worth it. - Have you asked to find my father?
Yes, because you could be found,
find him alive, treasure.
How strange life is, dear one!
During our long and intimate conversation,
He told me he had a son.
But he did not tell me that the boy was in Venice.
How did you find out?
Rest easy.
It was down.
Here below.
I've seen a kid.
A certain similarity to you, I could not say.
Maybe the cut of the clothes.
I've talked to him and asked him what he wanted.
Was he looking for me?
Definitely.
When I heard he was English, I suspected he was his son.
I phoned the hotel, the Grand Hotel.
A very awake, older child.
It has something of you.
A certain similarity.
It has that particularity of some children that make you feel uncomfortable in certain occasions.
But now we are friends.
Look.
He has given me this.
A signal. Our friendship pact.
When will it take effect?
Question of seconds. Sleep is the first symptom.
- Will the brain recover? - Insurance. No need to worry.
I'm glad to sleep a little.
There is no worse evil.
Go? There is my son.
Nobody will hurt you.
Who does not love children?
I worry about the fact that he is alone.
Soon he will be with his aunt again.
But I would have liked to see him again.
Good.
If I may, Major Court.
So you are Roger Court.
The police are looking for your father.
Who are you?
I am the English Consul.
Pleasure.
My pleasure.
The man who came yesterday, the police commissioner,
he has no proof that your father has arrived in Venice.
I did not have them until now.
Has not come?
No, but others do.
A fugitive, a certain Giorgio Luza, works where the gondolas dock,
and he told us that he saw a lame man there.
Naturally, we have moved quickly.
The photo you gave us has even been published in the Venice newspaper.
You see? It puts "disappeared".
I already told that man yesterday
that the photo does not look anything like my father.
Yes, but it's him, something has to look like.
Since this morning, the police are searching all the houses
on the other side of the Rialto.
Now, they want you to help them.
Are not you afraid to go with them in the boat?
- What are you still doing here? - I? Nothing.
They are good boats. And fast.
Latest model.
And so you will see also how they work.
From today, you will live with us in the Consulate.
I have a son of your age.
You will be fine.
You will not be afraid, will you?
You will be very alone in the hotel.
There's Roberta.
Who?
No one.
Come.
- Goodbye, Mr. Consul. - Goodbye.
Good luck.
- Where are we going, Lieutenant? - We start again. Come on.
Is this? You recognize it?
Do not.
Thanks and excuse me.
You're welcome.
Hey, boy!
- Is to me? - Up there.
Come.
Come, little one, come with me.
Above.
There are two patients who arrived the night your father disappeared.
Wait a minute.
I said wait.
- Have you checked the documentation? - Yes sir.
All right? - It seems to me that there are no irregularities.
All right. Come.
It is the declaration of the Health Office.
What are you doing here, little one?
Do you know the doctor?
Yes.
How is it possible? Where did you see it?
Down here, at the bar.
He bought me an ice cream.
- What were you doing here? - He's walked the whole street.
I could not find the way back to the hotel.
- I was looking for my father. - Because here?
I do not know, I was looking for.
Look there.
Look closely.
No, this is not my father.
And this one here?
They are very bad, you know? I would beg you not to bother them. It is my responsibility.
They're wrong, you know?
Is this your father?
No no no!
Is not the!
They have examined your documents.
He has already seen that the child does not recognize him.
Look better.
It sure is not him.
I beg you!
All right, as you want.
Let's move on.
Oh yeah!
Small, you did not have to go back.
I want to see you.
How have you come?
With the money they gave me for candy.
I spent them in the vaporetto.
Why did you dress like that?
Today is my day.
What do you mean?
The day of freedom.
I also have the right to be free, right?
You would be much better at the Consulate.
They have been very kind to you.
Yes, but there's Morgan.
Who is Morgan?
Child.
Just because your father is the Consul,
He thinks he can send me.
He is envious because I have gone up in a boat.
He says I'm a nenaza.
Do not worry, little one.
Roberta, why can not you find my father?
Without so many complications.
They do what they can.
Of all those I've seen,
none resembled my father.
And tomorrow,
will start the same story again.
What have you said?
You do not listen to anything I tell you.
Yes, I hear you.
What else do you want done for you?
- Miss Glenkovitch, please. - I go.
What coolies, huh? Firefighters.
Morgan says they have the best boats in Venice.
Better than the police.
- Did you know they have names? - Do not.
Saeta, Lightning, Arrow...
- and similar things. - What names!
Morgan has seen a workout. His father got him a permit.
Your father will get you all the permits you want.
Listen, it's almost time to eat.
No, Roberta. I have to stay here. At the hotel.
The consul is a good man, he appreciates you, you must not disturb him.
But my father can phone here.
Well, they'll know where to find you, they'll tell you.
Does the Consul have a telephone?
I guess so.
No, Roberta. If the police can not find dad, we could find him.
Precisely with you I had to bump into it.
Come small, be good.
All ready?
Starting tomorrow, I'll be ready.
Look that my client has paid and tomorrow he wants to do the loading.
All shippers are equal, freshwater sailors.
Before speaking, you should make life on these tables.
I'm a sailor since before you were born.
Yes, and they threw you out.
Is it the captain?
Who, Joe? No, Joe is the other.
MISSING
I also like children, you know that.
I should have expected that from you.
I had to come alone.
- Do you want one of these? - No thanks.
You could have shaved, right?
For what I would have served today.
Joe, I was joking, dear.
Does that sound like a joke?
The child has to be at the Consulate at eight o'clock.
Damn Consulate!
You must not talk like that.
Young people go to bed soon.
When the night comes, the soldiers go to the barracks and the sailors aboard.
Why are not you already a sailor?
Life is so.
Everything has an end.
- Now I'm a shipper. - But it was better to be a sailor, right?
Yes... Yes, maybe.
MISSING
If there is any truth and they wanted to kidnap him, they would have done it in Trieste.
The photograph has been put to do something.
How are they going to have kidnapped him?
It's not true, Joe. Have you seen the boy's face?
I beg you. Enough, Roberta.
Are you feeling bad? What's wrong?
I may have caught cold.
Give him warm milk.
- It will be better to take it home. - What about us?
Is everything alright?
The first is the little one.
Come on. Come.
Roberta, it's like I tell you. Listen out. He had a long beard.
I've never seen him like this before.
I beg you, Roberta.
It was him! It was him!
Hey, who did you take me for? Why do I have to waste time with you?
First you do not recognize it, and then, yes.
All children are the same. They have a head full of comics comics.
I'm begging you, Joe! Let's go where my father is! Joe!
Joe!
I tell you, I'm fed up.
If it's for me, you can go.
Okay, Im going.
I do not need you, you know?
You, Luza and the others, you are all the same: Imaginary martyrs.
Secret meetings, lost causes,
you always warm your head with things that surpass you.
Politics, religion, the problem of fugitives...
And in us, you never think. In the others, yes. In us, no.
I do not think I ask much.
Do not you know how to get rid of a child?
You are not very delicate.
Forgives...
I did not mean...
Whenever I'm with you, as if by chance, you name it.
Try to understand me Why do you torment yourself?
I told you a thousand times that it was not your fault, but the war.
Yes, of the war.
I...
I want to marry. Marry you and forget our problems.
I do not care if you can not have children.
I love you, Roberta.
I want to live with you.
Find peace in us.
Be ashamed.
More, more, more... Oh!
Enough, enough, enough! Oh my God! For!
Is not my words enough? Give me the cane.
Oh, my mother, it has broken my head!
What a headache! I'm going to lose all the intelligence!
Take it from here.
You are here.
You worried us.
- If I were your father... - My mother, what a shock.
Do not you want to lose yourself too?
Joe, you believe me, right?
Yes I believe you.
Joe, sick people change a lot.
The doctor said it. He is treating my father because he has typhus.
Yes, little one, yes.
- What's the name of that doctor? - The name puts it on the door,
but I do not remember it. But I know where he lives.
Where is San Antonio.
The statue. Before you cross the Rialto bridge.
The baby Jesus that he carries in his arms has no head.
I do not want to go there! I'm not going no!
Come, the Consul awaits you.
You're going to make everyone know.
I'm not going no! I want to go where my father is!
We'll come tomorrow and we'll go get an ice cream, okay?
I do not want! Do not! Do not! Do not!
- Where have you been? - Walking.
Who were those two?
You disappoint me, Roger. You are a child without a head.
You have made us all worried.
Good afternoon.
Morgan, accompany him to wash his hands.
Yes mom.
Mom, mom!
Shut up, Morgan, it's me. Be quiet.
- What do you do? - I'm looking for shoes.
Why?
Because I'm leaving.
What?
At night? Are you crazy?
If I tell Dad, he will not let you out anymore.
I swear I'm going to tell him.
Spy!
Knave!
Joe!
Roger.
Yes, little one, yes.
How have you managed to find the doctor's house?
I could not fall asleep after what the child said.
Will not it bring us problems to have it here?
No, tomorrow I will explain it.
He was telling the truth.
There was a doctor there.
And now it's gone?
They left two hours ago.
With the excuse of bringing two cases of typhus to the hospital.
But it is clear that there is something dirty under this.
You see? Here is the gun.
I swear I am ashamed of the role I have played in front of the child.
It will be better to go to the police.
What boats are in the port?
None of importance.
The American where I have been today.
An English mercantile from Malta, an Italian tourist from the East,
one French...
Wait.
If they have taken it on board,
It could not have been more than a ship.
Joe.
I was on board last night. I had to leave 24 hours ago.
Why have they delayed it?
It seems that there was a delay in loading.
They will leave in the morning at nine.
One thing is certain.
The police will never get on board that ship.
The situation is already quite complicated.
What can be done?
Water...
Boat...
Pescovitch.
Good morning, greater.
What's up, doctor?
- How do you feel? - Wrong.
When I woke up I thought we were already in the lagoon.
I was afraid he would not see him again.
I see that he begins to take pleasure in my care.
He is afraid that he will not find another job.
I do not think you should worry. The season starts now in Venice.
The hotels, the tourists, you know...
It's not about that.
I will also go with you.
I have become fond of Venice.
The police came to see us yesterday morning while you were sleeping.
And his son.
Roger?
And you have not recognized me?
Not even a little.
Three years is a lot for a child.
If it had not been for him, you would not have come to Venice.
And I would not have to leave.
What a strange destiny.
Such a lovely child.
Where are they taking us?
They have not told me.
And I have not asked.
Knows?
I was almost excited that Venice was my city
and I do not make up my mind to leave.
Look, at my age,
Life is a concentrate of insignificant little habits.
A good coffee in the Rialto,
a game where María
and a short walk through the Fondamento at night.
And now.
I have to go to a country
which I do not even remember.
Guilt yours, dear older.
We left at nine.
Will not they realize that the bottle is open? - No I don't think so.
Are you sure there is no other way?
This talks a lot.
If they have uploaded someone on board, he will know.
How will you do to notify me?
If we are wrong, I will return.
If not, at nine,
say a prayer for me.
- What if the police do not believe me? - I'll burn everything.
- See you tonight? - Yes.
- At the same place? - Yes.
And no children, huh?
And do not forget
to bring me the glasses.
Eat something.
Believe me, older. It's useless.
When your time comes, you know it.
There is a boat in the port
that leaves at nine. Guess what ship it is?
Miss and the child already knew.
It is precisely the nationality of that ship that creates complications.
Because of the territorial rights?
You can not climb aboard by force.
- I could ask for authorization. - Who?
Who? Look at the time, Mr. Consul.
It's half past six.
If all goes well, I will have an answer to both.
At two next Wednesday.
To board aboard that ship
would need...
- would need... - At this point, let me.
I'd better listen to the lady.
The lady is sure that at nine o'clock a fire will start on board.
And this, a gift from the company.
- Thus the trip will appease your dislikes. - A little drink?
No, no, keep it.
You bought it in Venice.
In my country, whiskey costs very dearly.
Then go to the warehouse.
- And take a good supply. - You can not, it's forbidden.
The what? Down to earth?
Is the boss afraid of a woman winking at you?
How do you put up with this disgusting smell?
Nobody goes ashore when he wants to.
But to you, when do they leave you?
Do you ever have a day off,
Except official visits to the mayor or participate in a ceremony?
There are trips and trips.
You are all the same.
Are you conchabado with the captain?
I have tried it.
Being an expeditor, he thought it would be easy.
I begin to doubt it.
Still here?
More milk.
For whom?
For those who went up last night.
I think they leave with us.
Guests, huh?
Clandestine passengers on a pleasure trip, maybe?
I do not know, I slept.
They went down and locked the cabin.
They are really bad.
- Sick? - Yes,
They are sick.
Very sick.
Uh, the great white boss!
With the greetings of the company,
nylon socks.
Thank you.
He says that now you can not disembark.
You will return to land with the pilot when we are in the lagoon.
I will not move.
Here it is very closed. I'll take a little air.
Come here!
Give to me.
- What if we light it on fire? - Do not!
How? What do not they need the firemen? It's not possible.
Pretend help with the speaker.
Fire on board. We offer you help.
Attention! Attention!
There is a fire on board!
We repeat! They need help?
Attention!
There is a fire on board!
They need help?
No thanks!
We manage with our means.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Yes, it's me.
It's okay. Stay in your posts.
Repeat the offer of help every two minutes.
If there is any news, call immediately.
What? Are there any news?
They are still denied.
They are enough with their means.
So, sir, can I tell you to leave?
If it is okay.
Still, it was a good idea.
Maybe.
I could ask my government to intercept the ship later on.
- Do not. - Why not?
It would be the best system for the largest Court to end at sea.
Tied to the anchor chain.
There is the child.
Small, come here!
You are not tired of swinging.
No thanks.
You have to tell him.
- What's up, Roberta? - Come, come up.
A firefighter has said that they go over one hundred per hour.
Is it true that they carry airplane engines?
What if they put them in a car?
Then, maybe they would go to three hundred per hour.
Yes, honey, at least they would go to three hundred per hour.
Why are they leaving?
- What are you doing, Roberta? - Nothing nothing.
I tell you to leave me! Let me!
No no! I tell you to leave me!
Let me!
Please!
I'm not going.
It's okay. Stay, then.
What happened?
You can not get on the ship.
It is not true, no.
Cheer up.
Courage, my darling.
The ship's siren! Touch the alarm! Come on!
We did it!
At last!
What's wrong, doctor?
What the siren sounded.
Who?
One like you, who believes in hope.
Do not you see there's nothing to do?
It's the end of everything,
you have to get carried away by the current.
Who knows?
Maybe you are right.
It reinforces me.
It seemed strange...
at least.
At least.
I will stay in Venice.
Major, I'll take care of him.
Do not move, doctor.
Still!
Listen! Hey, Commissioner!
Firefighters climb aboard!
Roger.
Dad!
This is Joe.
- Joe? - Joe de Roberta.
Hi.
Come on.
Is there a wounded?
No, nothing.
Someone we do not know.
