Freddy's getting home late.

He must have gone

for a drink with friends.

Any news about the tourists?

No.

Everything's pretty much ready.

Nobody's going to come?

I don't know.

What is this?

It's for weaving.

I saw your friend.

Mirichis?

The one who does errands.

I could sell this for

a good price in town.,

In town?

- Yes.

Woven things sell well.

Have you ever been to town?

No.

I know a lot of people there.

If you want to go,

tell me and well' go.

Are you busy?

I'm going to Santa Lucia to get coal.

Do you want to come?

Where should I go?

Straight ahead.

I don't know.

What does he do?

I think he works in town.

Which town?

I don't know.

Neither Flora nor my uncle

mentioned Santa Lucia.

How so?

Now days, people don't care

where the coal comes from

and why it's so far.

Paddle harder on this side to get left.

Where's Alicia?

She left with the canoe guy.

And you, Dad?

Did you find someone?

What do you mean?

You know...

A little woman!

Someone who'll love you, spoil you

and take care of you.

Freddy, don't bug me.

You're still good looking,

you can find someone.

My life suits me.

My house and my boat

won't ever abandon me.

But Dad, you have nothing here.

Why do you stay?

I should just drop everything,

like you?

Listen, Dad...

Things are just going

to get worse here.

You'd better off going.

Far away.

Nothing's going to happen.

Seriously, Dad.

Things could go badly.

Come to town with Alicia.

I'll help you.

Be quite.

I feel like I'm seeing God.

Hello!

Hello.

Is everything okay?

I'm still fighting.

How's Alicia?

She's as busy as you are.

You've taught her a lot.

Is everything okay

with your husband?

Yes.

Coffee?

Yes, please.

Thanks. It's cold.

Come in.

Do you go to Santa Lucia often?

Almost every day.

What are those towers for?

No clue.

Know how to stop houses from sinkingh?

Don't be.

That's the owners' job.

Or your cousin's.

That's why he's here, right?

Alicia, my offer is serious.

I only have a bit to do before going.

Come with me.

To go where?

Anywhere.

Thank you.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow, Mirichis.

Where were you?

We were looking for you.

I was out with...

Mirichis.

Does he behave with you?

What are you looking for?

Candles.

There aren't any more.

It can wait until tomorrow.

We'll get some in the village

or dig them up on the beach.

On the beach?

That's where you bury them

while you're asleep.

Everything's ready for tomorrow.

We only need the tourists.

See you tomorrow.

Go, Alicia.

Take my father.

Get out of here. Go!
