La kryptonite nella borsa Page #5

---

Sleep, my darling.

Mrs. Sansone ?

So...

Rosaria Sansone, age 38,

married, with a 9-year-old son.

Correct ?

Peppino. Almost 10.

Should I sit here or on the sofa ?

Whatever you prefer.

You can sit there if you'd like.

I like the chair better.

You're probably wondering about me.

My name is Enrico.

I'm 42 and I was born in Naples.

But I studied outside of Naples.

I have a degree in medicine

and a specialisation in psychiatry.

I'm married but without children.

My wife and I recently

moved back to Naples, to Vomero.

We live in my mother's home,

she died recently.

I'm sorry.

I hope to one day

open my own clinic.

I wanted to tell you a little about me

before you felt obliged to talk.

Next time you can talk

about anything you want...

it only seems fair since

I've told you so much about me.

- Why, are we done ?

-No.

But I don't want you to feel

obliged to speak, for today.

We can stop now

if you don't feel like talking.

Talking about what ?

Anything...

even the weather

It's nice out today.

Indeed, it's lovely.

It would be a good beach day.

You like the beach ?

-Yes.

- Do you go often ?

I wish, I just don't have the time.

When I was 15,

I went to Procida for a week.

My parents sent me to visit

some distant cousins.

How was it ?

I had a great time.

I swam all day.

At night we cooked fish...

on a rock,

like the fishermen had taught us.

I have a photo from that holiday...

I'm at Ciraccio beach,

wearing a one-piece bathing suit

and a cone-shaped hat,

goodness knows where I got it!

And I'm looking into the camera

with an expression as if saying:

if I can actually wear this darn hat,

who knows how far I'll get!

But instead...

Instead ?

Nothing.

- Where are we going ?

- To a very secret place.

Foxy, do you have a light ?

- Uncle Salvatore's not coming ?

- No, only women are allowed.

- What about me ?

- You don't count, you're a child.

- Are you Carmela ?

-No.

- You have a sister named Carmela ?

-No.

Let's go, Peppino.

Nobody in your family

is named Carmela ?

- An aunt.

-1 was right!

Women endure dual oppression.

They're oppressed by capital,

and furthermore, they...

meaning us...

are oppressed by domestic slavery,

suffocated by petty,

humiliating, tiresome,

degrading tasks.

The patriarchal family

imposes maternity as our duty...

Hop up.

Stay here, be quiet,

don't let anyone see you, promise ?

Can't I stay with Uncle Salvatore ?

No, he's busy.

Play the silence game, okay ?

Let's break the vicious circle

that restricts our freedom.

Let us become the masters

of our own days !

In order to rebel against tradition,

women burn their bras,

which are symbols

of a culture that limits us
