THE OTHER SIDE:
- Let's go, skinny!
- Hold on, chubby!
Look, Prisciliano!
The water is warm, isn't it?
- A little bit, why?
- Cause I'm peeing...
You, pig!
Prisciliano!
Prisciliano!
Come on, immediately!
Come out!
Haven't I told you
not to swim in the lagoon?
We were in the shallow part.
It doesn't matter,
you can drown!
I can swim.
I don't care.
What if Erendira goes out,
and takes you!
My dad told me
she doesn't exist.
Chubby you can do
whatever you want...
...but leave him alone.
Let's go!
Take your things
and let's go home!
- See ya, skinny!
- Don't call him skinny!
F***ing chubby!
Who's Erendira, daddy?
Come closer, son.
Well, son...
...a long time ago...
...when the Spaniards
conquered Tenochtitlan...
...they came to Michoacan...
...and among them...
...there was a captain,
he was a very tough man...
...so, one day...
...when this captain
was walking...
...in the forest
with his menu.
...they felt
somebody watched them...
...so, the captain
looked up the hill...
...and he discovered...
...a very pretty girl
looking at him...
...and...
...that was
Princess Erendira!
The daughter
of the Purepecha King.
The captain
didn't know that...
...but he was pretty sure...
...that he was
in love with her.
Ho followed her
everywhere she went.
But Erendira didn't care.
She was very cold...
...until one day...
- ... guess what!
- What?
Well, the captain
got tired...
...he caught her alone...
Who followed her
to the wilderness...
...and guess what!
He kidnapped her!
And to ensure that
no one could find her...
...he took her to a very
beautiful valley...
...in the middle
of the mountains...
...with green com fields...
...there he hid her...
...very little
time went by...
...when the Princess
realized...
...nobody would find her...
...and she got very sad...
...so she cried
day and night...
...crying her eyes out!
Forming with her tears...
...the Zirahuen lagoon...
...where...
...she threw herself,
commiting suicide.
Some sorcerers that were
over there, some wizards...
...saw everything...
...and to save
her from drowning...
...they turned
her into a mermaid.
Why didn't they
try to rescue her?
I think they didn't
know how to swim.
It is said
that since that day...
...she lives inside
the lagoon...
...and when
the sky is gloomy...
...and the fog appears.
...it means that Erendira
will come out to search...
...for a bad man...
...one of those...
...who don't
know to court...
...a woman with
nice words.
It is said
that she tears...
...their hearts out
and takes them...
...with her.
That's what they say.
So, you'd better
not enter the lagoon.
Mom, did you
know there's...
...a Princess living
in the lagoon?
- Those are trifles!
- No, my dad told me.
That's why the
children can't sleep!
He really wanted
to know the story.
Come on, finish your
soup and go to bed.
- Mom, when is my birthday?
- In three days.
Dad, on my birthday.
can you take me to the fair?
- We'll see, son!
- Can my mom...
...and my brothers go?
Okay, but finish your soup!
Angel of God, my guardian...
Never this day be
at my side...
...to fight
and guard and rule...
...and guide.
God bless you, son.
Take care of your mom
and your brothers.
You're the man
of the house.
Dad, can Princess Erendira
come into the house?
No, my son.
She just takes bad men.
You're a good boy.
Can you wait
'til his birthday?
I can't.
Why did you
promise to go...
...if you weren't
going to do it?
What else could I do?
Tell him I won't take him
cause I'm leaving?
t's better
to tell the truth.
Bullshit!
Can't you see
he's just a boy?
He won't understand.
What he isn't going
to understand is why...
...his dad left without
oven saying goodbye.
Are you leaving?
Don't go, Rafael!
Don't make it
harder, dear.
You know I do it
for you!
What am I going to do
by my self?
Don't do that!
Look...
...just think I'll
bring back a lot...
...of dollars
to build a house.
And that I'll
take you for a ride...
...in a big American truck.
What if something
happens to you?
That won't happen...
...'cause you'll pray
for me every night.
Let me go!
Dad!
Let me go with you!
No, son!
Get back inside!
Good morning, dear!
I'm sorry
to bother you but...
...Rafael asked me
to give you this.
If you need something,
you know...
- ... you can count on me.
- Thank you, uncle.
Take care!
Where's my dad?
He went to
the other side, son.
Which other side?
Far away from here.
But don't worry,
he'll be fine. Come.
Prisciliano!
- Dad!
- Prisciliano!
Dad!
How are we going
to find my dad?
You don't know who he is.
Yes.
I have his photograph.
Very nice.
My mom says
he's very famous.
All right, everyone
knows famous people.
We're not staying.
Let's go, you find him...
...and you talk to him...
...he grabs his suitcase
and we return to Havana!
What if he doesn't
want to?
I think you don't
want to go.
If you're afraid,
you'd better say so.
I rather play domino.
What's up!
Are you winning, Manuel?
Caridad!
Marcos, how are you?
Allis set... yes...
...we'll be
there in 20 minutes.
That son of a b*tch!
Take care, beauty.
Where were you?
What's wrong with you?
I went for a walk
with my friends.
Why did you
get here so late?
I went out, that's it.
