Here, people always

make up stories about lonely men...

about lonely people...

oh yes.

Dum b stories.

Howmuch for crossing?

$2.000

for crossing...

and $ 1.000

for your stuff.

Will it hold all this?

Yes, it will.

Is it that big island

in the back?

No, the other one,

the small one.

Are you from around here?

No.

But I've been here for a while.

Five years or so.

Why do you ask?

You don't look like people

from around here.

You don't look like

someone from here either.

Where are you from?

Santiago.

Are you a relative

of the owner?

I used to work for her,

but she passed away.

And she left you this place?

Yes.

So, these lands are yours now?

I'll have to make them mine.

She must have liked you then?

Come back in two days.

Don't you know how to row?

I didn't have oars with me.

I need to buy several tools.

I have some things to fix.

Are you a handyman?

Don't you know how to row?

I didn't have oars with me.

Are you going to

the cove tomorrow?

Did you need to buy something?

Some tools.

I can lend you some.

We cross over tomorrow.

And I'll hand them to you.

My dad has many he's not using.

Do you know

where can I buy some woods?

Yeah, sure...

Sure what?

Yeah...

And a bar... Do you know

where there is one?

Yes, around... around...

- Around where?

- Yes.

My mother married my father;

My father has been dead for years.

My mother is dead. She's been

dead for fourteen years...

My mom has family in the closest island,

Chope island, no, Chechi island

Chope, I think.

My mom has family there.

But also all my

mom's brothers died...

My uncle Efrain died,

my mom's brother.

My uncle Esaidro too... all those

brothers died. Dead.

And how do you

make the money to get by?

From my pension.

Like $ 50.000 pesos...

I need people to work with.

Yeah, sure...

Wanna go?

Would you like

to come and work with me?

Have your own land?

Yes.

And a wooden house...

even if it is a small one.

Even if it's a small house...

Yeah... a little shack.

And tend sheep?

Sheep too!

No violence!

No violence!

Stop! Stop!

We like this.

Now, give him a kiss!

Give him a kiss!

OK.

Common! Marito,

come closer!

Cheers for the whole Calbuco!

To the best boatman,

Ismael Rain!

Ismael Rain is the best

boatman in Calbuco!

Who has a cigarette?

Sell me a cigarette, man...

This I say to you!

Atoast! To Ismael Rain!

Would you go with me?

I can't go with you.

I'm from Santiago, I don't know

my way around here...

What?! You're from where?!

Santiago.

Ahh, You're more full of

yourself than we are...

- But I don't know the area.

- Don't tell us that story again

That's why I'm inviting you.

You're more full of

yourself than we are...

in Santiago, they made me go to

apartments, strange sh*t...

I went and saw one and said:

This sh*t is like the South.

Have you been to the

South some time?

My friend, excuse me...

you can be a cameraman;

You can be a T.V. director.

You are mistaken.

But for a man to be a man

my dear friend...

if you know Santiago

and Calbuco...

you're just getting to know Calbuco,

but you knew it already.

Why are you asking? Why are you

making these questions?

Yes, you know Calbuco.

You're just playing dumb.

Look, when I went to

Santiago, a girl told me...

- What do you do for a living?

- I live my own life.

But for money?

How do you make a living?

- I'm just a loser.

- How's that?

Why am I a loser?

I was never a loser,

my dear friend.

I'm a person, man.

I'm a person.

I'm not a loser.

Sh*t, I am truly

a person, man...

How do you support your family?

- Ah?

- How do you support your family?

I left my home

for eleven years.

I went to Aysen and

made a living.

But with what money?

What money...

- Ah?

- With what money?

Just me.

Right here!

But where?

Where do you get it?

- From my own money

- Where?!

- Because I work.

- In what?

And if there's no work, I don't.

There's no money.

Man! If you

knew the way I am

What happens is they

don't want to pay me.

They don't pay me anything.

Look! They're paying me, f***, I'm buying a

piece of land and, f***, and I...

from Don Jose.

From Don Jose.

I lent my lough to Don Jose;

He hasn't given it back. He hasn't.

When is Don Jose going

to return that sh*t to me?

There' re many hectares,

aren't there?

How many hectares?

- 150.

- That's not bad.

Really?

Yeah... to see what it's like.

Don't you want to go and try?

Yes, I would like to.

I'd like to...

Can you get me people?

We have to see those lands.

Perhaps they have

something there...

They're good for livestock.

This, this board is...

let's talk about a

discount right away...

For you it's $ 800 pesos.

I should charge you $ 1.100,

but you can have it for $ 800 pesos.

For the floor?

The floor...

Well, here we commonly use

Yew for flooring... or Laurel.

But I don't have

that type now...

I only have pine flooring,

that is over there...

And...

But I don't have the amount

you need rig ht now,

Howmuch would you need?

Besides working with wood...

I'm a minister in

a church right now.

As it turns out, I carry

five heart attacks on me...

and during the third,

I was dead.

But I came back to life.

And in that heart attack...

I went to a place...

I had never been before.

First, I went through a tunnel,

and then I arrived to this vineyard...

and in this vineyard...

My wings sprouted and I
