- Why?

You don't like the best things

in life, movies and food.

But I like to drink.

The other glass is for...

Same difference.

Ready to order?

It won't be easy.

Great chocolate pudding.

See, there's always

something good to eat.

Why don't you have a girlfriend?

Can I ask you that first?

With older men

I don't know what to talk about,

with younger men I do,

but they can't f***.

- Never mind 40-year-olds.

- Do tell, I'm interested.

They're adolescents

trapped in ageing bodies.

Every birthday is a crisis,

they console themselves with big cars.

The portrait of me.

And I don't even have a car.

You didn't answer my question.

Things happen to you in life that...

- Is that an answer?

- No.

My female students like me a lot

but I only like women who are my age.

Will you give me a ride home?

I'm not trying to hit on you.

I'LL CALL YOU

KISSES, GIORGIA

This is all I can do.

Say bye to him for me.

Here's the return ticket,

this is the hotel.

I don't know how to explain it, Dad,

acting's like tight-rope walking,

people watch but don't have the guts

to do what you do.

It's fantastic,

you feel their eyes on you

and their support.

They want you to walk up high.

- You know?

- Put on your seatbelt, honey.

Andrea Berti's answering machine,

leave a message.

- You're just like I pictured you.

- What do you mean?

Your sister spoke of you often,

she showed me a photo.

Odd.

Not a single letter

during her two years in Rome.

She didn't want to lie to you,

or tell you the truth.

Meaning?

She wasn't happy, she couldn't find work,

things were bad with Giulio.

- Do you know who A is?

- No.

She wouldn't tell me, it hurt me

because your sister and I

told each other everything,

we had a deep relationship.

We weren't just friends, get it?

I'm not so sure.

I loved your sister

and I think she cared for me, too.

Come in.

Honey, did you have a good time?

A killer time.

This is my son, Gabriele.

I was in Florence for a class,

I never forgave myself.

Absence is always

the cause of everything.

See this?

It was hers.

Gabriele, where are you going?

I asked if I could keep

some of her things.

Your dad said

to throw everything away.

After the investigation, I was able

to take some of her things

but I had to get authorization.

Do you know the Italian state

considers suicide a crime?

And you?

You have nothing of Ada's?

This was hers, too.

I don't believe

she killed herself over work.

I'm sure she thought

long and hard about it.

It wasn't the act

of someone who lost control.

It was something

she had inside for a while.

Like she was running from something.

I'd like to see her again.

I don't think there's a place
