- Look at all this.
- Collettivo Femminista Venezia.
- I wish we had a map.
They want convicted rapists castrated.
See this building?
We've been past this building
about ten minutes ago.
Quite right too.
- What is?
- To castrate rapists.
What was that man doing?
Glass at this time of night?
- Come on.
- Very strange.
- I'm starving.
- I think we're on the right track.
So do I.
Good evening. You need help?
Well...
We're looking for a place
to get something to eat.
There's nothing in that direction, but I can
show you a very good place that way.
- Isn't there a bar just over there?
- No. Everything is closed.
- My name is Robert.
- Hello.
- Like to eat some beautiful food?
- We'd love to.
I'll show you this place.
You must both be terribly hungry.
All right. Let's go.
This is Mary. I'm Colin.
- You're English?
- Yes.
Whereabouts?
Mary's from Bristol and I'm from London.
Beautiful country.
- Your first trip here?
- Two years ago.
- Two.
- Changed much, has it?
- Mm...
These posters are everywhere.
These are women who can't find a man.
They want to destroy everything
that's good between men and women.
They don't know what they want.
This way.
- Ciao, ragazzi. Come va?
- Bene, grazie.
It's very easy to get lost.
Often there's a dead end or a canal.
It's not far.
Buona ser, Robert.
Please.
Monica. Jocelyn. a va.
This way, please.
It's the real Venice.
Excuse me.
There's no food. I'm sorry.
The cook is sick.
It's a tragedy. I could kill him.
Very sorry.
But this is a wonderful wine.
Full of nourishment.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Now, tell me.
I'm a man of immense curiosity.
Passionate curiosity.
- Are you married?
- No.
- But you live together in sin.
- No.
Why not? No one would stop you.
In this day and age
there are no standards.
What about you? Tell us a bit about you.
I mean... who are you, anyway?
But you have a child. Am I right?
- How did you know?
- I feel it.
I have two children.
A boy and a girl.
- This is your boy and your girl.
- Yes.
Beautiful.
Not yours.
Not mine.
Beautiful children.
They take after their beautiful mother.
Your English is terribly good.
I grew up in London. My wife is Canadian.
Any more breadsticks?
- Ancora vino. E dei grissini.
- Arrivo subito.
- Your wife's Canadian?
- Certainly. We lived there.
How did you meet?
That's impossible to explain without
describing my mother and sisters
and that would only make sense
if I described my father.
In order to explain how I met my wife
I would have to describe my father.
Would you really like me to do that?
Shall I do that?
- All right.
