Opening Up New Country in the Argentine Page #3

---

It's infected.

We'll have to leave it uncovered.

I have to walk with my ass naked?

F***!

(Vilo smells something.)

Let's pick some

guavas before going back.

Stop there, buddy.

What are you two doing here?

- We're from here.

- What's your name?

- Israel.

- Israel what?

Israel Pardo.

- What's his name?

- He's my brother, Guile.

- Ernesto Guevara.

- Did we scare you?

Guile.

Good, man, good.

We have to take him to a hospital.

Give me a swig.

Can we trust anyone

to take him out of here?

Difficult.

Soldiers tell people that the rebels

kill them and steal their food.

My mother is from here

and my father came from Haiti.

When he met my mother...

...we moved to a farm that belonged

to Juanito Echevarra.

He gave us a piece

of land to grow coffee.

But we had to clear it

and plant the seeds.

And we had to give

him a third of our crop.

And one day Juanito

decided to kick us out.

When my father knew

he had to leave...

...he stood in front

of Juanito Echevarra and said:

"I'll leave if you want,

but you have to pay...

...you have to pay me for

the four years that I worked here."

Do you know

what Juanito Echevarra

paid us for four years of work?

One hundred pesos.

My old man got

one hundred pesos for four years.

Be careful.

Okay.

This is the bullet

I removed from your body.

You're a champ.

- I'm going to get better now.

- Yes.

Maybe a little powder.

... and from that comes...

If I don't work, I don't eat.

And you are on welfare.

Go back to work in Cuba.

What's the point of the U.N. if our

fate is determined by the O.A. S...

...an organization that expelled us

and to which we no longer have ties?

Excuse me, Comandante.

Will you need me tonight?

Little boy, no one is so necessary,

or indispensable in this life.

Don't go thinking

that you are indispensable.

Go, do what you need to do.

I am going

to give you a little checkup...

...beginning with your ears.

Is that okay?

Too much work

and not enough to eat.

Maria, try to eat meat

whenever you can.

- Alright?

- Thanks, doctor.

- Let's go, Laura.

- Goodbye.

Mommy, that guy's a liar.

He says the same thing to everyone.

- Where does it hurt?

- Nothing really hurts.

I just came to see you because

I've never seen a doctor before.

Well, you've seen one now.

I'm here for you.

Excuse me.

Can I have your canteen,

so I can fill it?

Thank you, Guile.

Listen, Doctor.

I want to go with you all.

First you have to

learn to read and write, man.

I can learn.

Very good, Guile.

But I still can't take you because

I don't have a gun to give you.

But I don't care, I want to help.

We need your help here.

- Good morning.
