Cure: The Life of Another

Synopsis: Linda and Eta are best friends. They are 14 years old and live in Dubrovnik: Eta with her mother and grandmother, Linda with her father, who is a heart specialist at the local hospital and once lived in Switzerland, where Linda was born. The two girls are inseparable, although they often are drawn into fierce arguments. Together, they sneak into discos, fight over boys, and dream about an exciting future beyond their quaint hometown. One of their favorite places is the pine forest of Petka Hill on the outskirts of the city. On the first warm spring day, Eta and Linda retreat to a secret beach beneath the cliffs of Petka Hill. Once again they have an argument, this time with horrific consequences. Eta is left for dead on a rock by the sea, while Linda spends the night wandering aimlessly through the forest. However, the inhabitants of Dubrovnik don't want to know about the guilt and desolation plaguing Linda after her friend's death. The sunny, Mediterranean harbor town now seems sinist

In Switzerland I never had

to go to church.

My mom and dad had gotten divorced.

And then mom passed away.

Well, not really.

She's alive...

but in Switzerland and without me.

I'm friends with Eta now.

She's from here, so she's been

through the whole war.

Eta.

Linda isn't well.

I'll take her outside.

Where are we going?

I'll show you my secret place.

Guess who I am.

Come on, guess.

Just some idiot.

I'm Ivo.

"Cazzo", I'm so hot!

"Cazzo", means dick.

So you know next time!

Come on! Teach me something

in your language.

This is my language.

I mean the other one.

F*** yourself and shove it up your ass.

Shithead.

Smoke my dick.

Smoke my dick.

Are you still a virgin?

Have you ever french kissed?

What was it like?

Wettish.

Last winter...

We went to a skiing camp.

I snuck into this guy's room...

I didn't give a damn

what anybody thought.

I pushed my tongue into his mouth.

Did you touch his dick?

The skin was very soft.

It was big and hard.

Someone's there!

I heard something.

Something smells.

Let's go!

It's spooky here.

Poor little girl in the big bad woods!

Stay on the trail, girls.

It's full of mines here.

No trail's the trick!

If you wanna big dick.

I want to leave this f***ing place.

I'm dying of boredom.

Dubrovnik is special.

With all its history!

What are you, a travel agency?

I want to try it on.

My blouse?

Are you kidding?

Let's swap clothes.

Only real men turn me on.

His dick was so cute!

Shithead.

Go f*** yourself.

Is it down there?

You can have one.

Watch out!

Use your left hand!

Otherwise it's bad luck.

Now they'll protect both of us.

What a liar you are.

You don't even know what a dick is!

You wouldn't even dare...

You've never even kissed!

You're just an ordinary girl.

You're nobody here without me!

Am I right?

Sweet, soft Linda.

Leave me alone!

Help!

You have to promise me something.

Don't leave this town without me.

Promise not to leave me here.

Did you take anything?

No.

Drugs, alcohol?

Was there anybody with you?

No.

Were you going to meet somebody?

We were alone.

Sign down here!

We were just walking around.

We started arguing.

Eta slipped...

I mean...

Maybe I even pushed her.

What are you talking about?

I would like to see her.

You were lucky, girl.

She drowned.

Were you on drugs?

The town is full of them.

Awful stuff.

We were just walking around.

Eta wanted to show me

her favourite place.

But where've you been all night?

I was so damned worried.

Eta looks so pale, Dad.

Let's go home.

You need a rest.

I can go by myself.

Ivo...

he still treats me like a kid.

And I already shave under my arms.

What an a**hole!

I love him.

I love him.

Mom, I'm fine - really.

Mom, it's really okay.

Don't worry.

I have friends here.

There's a new girl in class, Linda.

In Mexican that' means "pretty".

I've finally found someone

who'll get me out of here.

Think about her all the time.

She has something nobody else has.

Something special.

They're going to attack

again fan/gin'.

Everybody's scared.

Hold my mom we should

jump into the sea.

Nobody would ever find us.

She looked at' me like I was crazy.

I'm scared...

that' they'll rape me.

Maybe I'M be dead when

someone finds this diary.

Dead like Dad.

Are you mad at me?

What do you mean?

You are.

I've never had such a good friend.

Please, bring me my diary.

I don't want Grandma to find it.

I promise.

I'm sorry.

It's fine... take a seat.

That's all for today...

Why don't you take them?

Okay, thank you.

Let's continue where we left off last time.

Any volunteers?

Let's go.

What is this?

A nice girl stealing, ha?

You're all the same.

Hi there.

Listen.

I'm sorry about what happened.

I got this single for Eta.

I thought you might like it, too.

Thank you.

Want a ride home?

I have to return the backpack.

Don't force me!

Stop playing that game!

You've been eating chocolates again.

Do you want more?

Where are they? Are they here?

Go ahead.

You should've been strict

with your daughter,

not with me.

We brought her things.

Good afternoon.

Get out.

Stay here!

Sit down, child.

Come here.

- Have a chocolate.

- I just wanted...

Take one!

These are your favorites.

Good.

Now off you go...

...to buy fresh bread.

Damn it.

Even during the war we had more power.

I wouldn't wish that on anybody!

When's the old lady finally

going to finish her house?

Poor woman, lost her son and now

the thing with her granddaughter.

The girl shoplifted.

She hung out with Nino's daughter.

- Who?

- The doctor's daughter.

He's a fine doctor.

He works in our hospital.

If I was him,

I sure wouldn't have come back.

It's got to be trouble of some kind.

Probably a divorce.

My back hurts,

it's that awful wind again.

Maybe you should try

the Swiss doctor, too.

The bread for Tonkovids.

What are you staring at?

Keep on gossiping.

I was (coking for him in his bedroom.

Jos has been kidnapped.

You have a beautiful voice.

I don't believe a word they say.

Turn it off!

Come, my angel!

Go get the photo album.

Get going!

What are you waiting for?

Do you need a drawing?

In the bedroom.

Drink it.

It's good for your heart.

You're a nice girl.

She needs a strong hand.

Do you realize that she stole the earrings?

Welcome to my room, Linda.

There are two of us now.

We promised, remember?

I don't like the dead.

I want to be with the living.

(an you smell me?

I can smell you.

This is for the doctor.

Heel sorry for my mom.

She's been bitter since Dad died.

She can'? enjoy Hie anymore.

I love her and it makes me sad.

We used to laugh so much

before the war.

Eta.

Eta, is that' you?

I just want you to know...

I really trust you.

I wish you trusted me, too.

I know it's hard for you.

But if you want to talk...

You know, you can tell

me everything.

Everything.

Excuse me for disturbing you,

doctor.

I'm Mrs Kalinic.

Nice to meet you.

A small gift.

That really wasn't necessary.

Goodbye.

In a few weeks it'll be summer.

You will enjoy Dubrovnik: The sea,

the warm nights, it's beautiful here.

What are you, a travel agency?

I'm a hospital agency.

What are you wearing?

Is it already that warm?

Look at her!

It's a nice dress.

A bit short though.

Too short.

Trying to please the boys?

I won't even see spring.

Yes, it's getting warmer,

but there's still mist in the morning.

Morning dew.

Go answer it.

Hello?

She's not home yet.

Call the hotel!

You have to be at work earlier.

Ante gave it to me.

He was practically a child then.

He worked hard

and wrote his mother a lot.

Such a wonderful son.

Without this evil war...

he would still be with us.

Spoiled and ungrateful.

Don't think I don't know...

You stole the earrings, I know you did.

No, I didn't, not me.

My little one.

They're yours anyway. Keep them.

My darling.

Didn't you hear what he said?

Smile!

Sit up straight.

We" your eyes.

She's always been sensitive,

even as a child.

Linda.
