Will there, Roberto?
No.
Maybe I should've sent word sooner
about the movements here.
How much time have we left?
A lifetime, Mara.
I mean until daylight.
Five, six hours.
Pilar told me
that time is not important.
Maybe Pilar's right.
Three days and three nights.
Yet they're everything.
Longer than the months in prison.
Longer than the years I've lived.
She told me something else
when I left the cave:
"We must live all our life
in the time that remains."
She said...
- What?
What did she tell you?
- We would all die tomorrow.
And that you know it too.
- She's crazy.
Nothing more than Gypsy superstition.
You don't believe it?
- Of course not.
She had a reason for telling me.
She said I must tell you all
that happened to me
when they shot my mother and father.
You've told me.
- No.
No, I didn't tell you what happened
when they herded us up the hill
and to the barber shop.
- I don't want to hear it.
Two men looked at me and one said,
"That's the daughter of the mayor."
The other said, "Commence with her."
They took me to the barber shop
and put me in the chair and held me.
In the mirror I could only see
my mother and my father
at the moment of the shooting.
My mother's words were in my head
like a scream that went on and on.
And I could fell a pain.
They were pulling at my hair
and cutting it off with a razor.
And then they put the braids
in my mouth...
and tied them around my neck
to make a gag.
Then they ran clippers across my head.
I commenced to cry, because until then
I'd been too frozen to feel anything.
In the mirror,
I could see the men laugh.
I couldn't look away from the horror
my face made with braids in my mouth.
When they took me out,
I stumbled over the dead barber.
They had shot him
because he belonged to a union.
Then I saw my best friend
being dragged in by two more men.
When she saw me, she screamed.
they were shoving me
across the square
and into the doorway
and up the stairs of the city hall,
to the office of my father, where they
put me on the couch. - Mara.
The worst things were done there.
- Quiet. Don't think about it.
I was going to tell you
on the way back from El Sordo,
but I was glad
when you wouldn't let me.
Then I was happy,
as if it had never happened.
No. Tonight, Pilar said
I must tell you everything.
And now you won't love me.
Tomorrow you'll take me through the
lines and I'll never see you again.
Never. You won't want me.
No, Roberto,
we can't change things.
But it's true
I never kissed any man until you.
When it happened I fought until they
tied my arms. - No one's touched you!
You believe that?
- I know that.
