i am growing my children.

All i want is to make

somebody out of him.

Look, isn't he already somebody?

He is Luis, my son.

Will you stop your son

from having a better life?

No, no way.

Luis will study,

he will have a proffesion.

Oh, Mrs, don't worry

like that, no...

everything here is as resistant as leather, ih!

We have seen poverty

there in the north, you know?

-A group of ungratefuls!

-Oh, no!

Come here, and i will kill you,

i will kill you!

You're demons!

I will kill you!

Come here, ungrateful!

I will kill you! Deamon!

I will get you, ungrateful!

Aristides, don't do this

with the boys!

I want to see which one of them will have

the courage to go to school now!

What are you doing with them?

I gave an order, my sons don't have to

study, they have to work!

I sent the boys to school

Aristides, for God's sake!

You sent the boys to

school?

-Then i will kill you too!

-You respect me!

Don't hit my mom!

Don't beat my mom!

-You repsect me!

-Don't heat my mom, why?

Because a man doesn't hit a woman!

Hurt?

Go.

Lindu!

Lindu! Ungrateful!

Lindu!

Lindu! Ungrateful, come back, woman!

Don't leave me alone, no!

Let's go, let's go!

Play, lambari! Play!

Go, Lula! go, go!

Gol!!

Let's go back, go, go...

Let's play one more, come?

Go, go, let's get over them,

because they are scared, let's go!

We could have done much more

than being satisfied with little...

we can do better than this.

Definitely.

-Your sister is there.

-Hi, Lurdes!

-My God, you stink!

-It's true!

No, stop!

-Come by my house later.

-You can leave it.

Do you want some help?

No, just leave it.

Is your mom home?

I don't know.

I will have a suit like that.

Lula! Lula!

This fell off!

Re-gi-nal-do Sou-za.

Hey, this guy is brave like the Evil!

-Anyway, it's a good thing, no?

-It's a suit.

Ah, my father has one.

No, but this one is expensive.

It was made to measure.

You saved me, Lurdes.

Thank you.

Be careful not to

lose any again!

Can I?

Look at him, the boss of this guy passed him

through a washing machine and an iron, right?

is Lambari here?

We are going to the cinema.

To the cinema? lambari is inside there

getting ready, seems like he will get married

-Excuse me.

-Go there.

Will you get married, Lambari?

Marrie what?

You came late, right, Lula?

This way we will lose the session.

Its not me who is polishing

his hair, right?

-Is is too fat?

-Of course it is, isn't it, Lurdes?

Pass a hairbrush through it

and pull a little bit.

Lambari, did your father leave?

It's there on the bed. My mom said that

he doesn't need to know.

So much prissy...

It is, but if you don't have a jacket,

the doorman won't let you enter.
