Ismael Page #4

Synopsis: Ismael Tchou (8 years old), takes a train towards Barcelona. He has run away from home because he wants to find Felix, his father, whom he never knew. His only clue is an address of an apartment in Barcelona, written in the return address of a letter to his mother. Once there, he manages to find the apartment, but instead of finding his father, he finds an elegant woman in her fifties, Nora, who happens to be Felix's mother. Felix never said anything to Nora of the existence of that child. But once she locates him, he does not deny his paternity. Nora, after notice to the child's mother, Alika, decides to take him to meet Felix. They begin a journey to La Costa Brava, where Felix lives. Meanwhile, Alika and Luis, her husband, travel to the coast in search of the boy. This will make all the characters try to settle their accounts with the past.

with those smart things you say.

Give me a break, Chino. I can't today.

Tell Bonobo to lie low till tomorrow.

You tell him,

you're the only one he listens to.

If he listened to me,

he wouldn't always be in trouble.

They're out to get him.

F***...

He's to hide today

and tomorrow well see what we can do.

I can't do it today, really.

I've got a life too.

- Is anything wrong?

- No, nothing.

You looked rough in the washroom.

Even if nothings wrong, you know...

Yes, I know.

I know.

Hey,

what would you get fora kid whos...

eight years old.

Ismael, you'll get wet!

Let him enjoy it.

He's thrilled with the sea.

- Have you known Flix for long?

- Yes, it's been a few years now.

When he decided to settle here

I was delighted.

There aren't many

good conversationalists,

and he's a great listener too.

Are you sure

we're talking about my son?

Does my son live there?

In a cave?

Come on.

I'll check the fridge.

This kid must be hungry.

Calm down.

It's all right, you know that.

Look in my eyes.

Look in my eyes. Look in my eyes.

Ismael, look in my eyes.

Look in my eyes.

Ismael, the problem isn't

in your lungs. It's in your head,

it's playing tricks on you.

Look, you don't need this.

Look in my eyes. Look in my eyes.

Look at me.

Look at me.

Forget about the air in your chest.

Think of something nice.

Something you really like.

A song? A film? Look at me, love.

A girl?

Is there a girl at school

that you like?

Yes! We got that right.

Very good. Now, think about her,

and all you'll have to tell her

when you see her.

That's it. Good.

Good. All right.

Come on, love.

You're going to sit here.

Sit down.

I'll be right back.

I'll make him an infusion.

Or whatever I find.

How did you calm him down?

Flix had the same thing.

The Ambrss' defective genes.

You're good with kids.

He was hypnotized.

Am I like he says I am?

I don't know what you mean.

My son must have said

something about me.

He never talked about me?

Mom?

Ismael?

I'm Flix.

"Sapere... aude."

It's Latin.

- And what does it mean?

- "Dare to know".

You don't look after yourself.

You're...

thinner and more...

More mature. When he gets

some grey hair he'll be irresistible.

Won't he, Ismael?

I don't know.

I didn't know him before.

Leyre, I won't get there sooner

just because you keep calling.

If everything's OK, that's great.

Don't get rattled,

show them you're in control.

Yes, I'm on my way. OK, so long.

It's a pity you're leaving so soon.

Tell Flix that if they want to eat

I'll see them at the hotel.

There's nothing here.

Why are you looking at me like that?

- Like what?

- Like that.

I can't close my business
