Nah.

I love you!

Not dead yet, Segovia?

Not yet, Pastor.

Getting there.

Bolivian!

(BLOWS AIR)

- Loser!

- (COUGHING)

(ACTORS SPEAKING SPANISH ON TV)

I found this on level three.

So?

We put these mirrors in the cracks

so we know when the mountain shifts.

She's an old mine.

The mountain is going to shift.

The mirrors are going to break.

I think we should get

a health check on the ramp.

- We may be looking at...

- The ramp is a good rock.

The mine's got another

20 years left in her.

We may be looking at

a weakness in the mountain's

internal structure.

Marco.

It's my job to keep these men safe.

Correction.

Your job, Lucho,

is to keep these men

pulling out 250 tons a day.

250?

Your quota has gone up.

There's only so much gold in the mountain.

Dario.

DON LUCHO:
All right, guys,

we're working rock bottom today.

Where is Carlos Mamani?

- Here.

- Everyone!

Say hello to Mamani,

our new boy from Bolivia.

He's a tin digger.

What does a tin digger from Bolivia

know about mining for gold?

Elvis, not today, huh?

I got him.

Retirement papers, Gomez!

Two weeks, and you're a free man!

Sign them and get them back to me.

Bravo, Gomez!

DON LUCHO:
Lobos, let's go!

Is that the only way in?

The only way in, the only way out.

(MAN SHOUTING)

(MINERS CHUCKLING)

YONNI:
You know Elvis didn't

write his own lyrics, right?

That's blasphemy.

Next you're going to tell me

he didn't do his own dancing.

(GASPING AND GULPING)

MAMANI:
How much longer?

About an hour.

ALL:
Whoa. YONNI: Easy, Lobos.

Okay, huevones. You know what to do.

DON LUCHO:

You should get it together. Dario.

Yonni, what's that?

Bolivia! Hey, Bolivia!

- Kananni, Kachani... What's your name?

- Mamani.

Whatever, come over here.

I know, I know. That's crazy Elvis.

He's just always looking for trouble.

He actually thinks he's Elvis.

(SHATTERING)

ALEX:
Rodrigo has offered me

a job in his body shop.

50 a week. What do you think about that?

50 a week? That's a joke, right?

And you're going to be a father?

That's the problem.

You know what?

You're asking the wrong man.

And I have a terrible hangover.

I don't know, it's the same thing

- over and over with my dad.

- (RUMBLING)

What was that?

This is why we're here.

Yeah, I can taste it.

Copper and gold. 1,200 an ounce.

Take it. Take it. Yeah.

Cholo, you going to stick that

in your pocket for your mama'?

What did you say?

Everyone knows that Bolivians

are a bunch of thieves.

He's stupid, you know that?

Chile stole this land.

After the War of 1881.

Who are the thieves?

That was... 1881, you know?

(CRACKING)

Run now! Run!

What the hell?

On! (SCREAMING)
