Takes people hunting and stuff.

He's got cabins further north

in the middle of the woods.

- I don't know him.

- Well, they're not really for tourists.

- Actually, his place is kind of...

...shitty.

Listen, I wouldn't recommend it

if you had any other options.

But if you've come to hunt,

maybe this will suit you better.

It's closer to the grounds.

What do you think?

Nothing.

How do I get there?

Hey.

Hey!

What do you want?

Somewhere to stay for 3 or 4 days.

No. We haven't got any room.

So where are all

the other guests then?

In the sauna?

No room. What part of that

didn't you understand?

Yes, there is room.

My brother made a mistake.

There's one cabin available. Follow me.

Sign here please.

- Me too?

- No, one is enough.

- What's your name?

- Diana.

Is this your father?

No... that's my husband.

- Dietrich?

- Yes.

- This is a 14 point red stag, isn't it?

- I think so.

- Where is it?

- I don't know. Not here anyway.

The cabin is that one opposite.

If you want me to make you breakfast,

let me know.

Or any other meal.

It's no problem.

There are no other hunters.

- There's nobody.

- I thought that...

Don't listen to Julio.

My husband's in charge here.

And if he isn't here, it's me.

- Where is he?

- I don't know.

Hunting, I guess.

If you want him as a guide,

I can try to get him on his cell phone.

You can get a signal here?

The casino put up an antenna. It works

for the whole valley. Shall I call him?

No, we'll go on our own,

tomorrow first thing.

- To Junquillo?

- Further north, closer to Pilauquen.

- No one ever goes there.

- That's exactly why we're going there.

I wanted to rent a rifle for

my friend but now we're too far away.

- Can you rent us one?

- Yes...

Do you want to see them?

Come with me.

Now you've got a gun.

Friday

Stay close. If we get separated,

you won't know how to get back.

You walk 4 or 4 km west to get

to the river, then you turn right,

go 2 km more. That's where we

left the jeep, past the clearing.

- I know perfectly well how to get back.

- You're a real woodsman...

Good spatial memory.

I've always had it, even as a kid.

I never get lost.

You have to have one skill

to make up for the rest.

- That was on purpose, wasn't it?

- No.

You did that on purpose!

You didn't want me to kill it.

What's wrong with you, you jerk?

You're the master criminal, but

you can't bear to see an animal's blood?

I must be a jerk too.

Why the f*** did I bring you along?

Come on, d*ckhead.

Let's go. It's too late for deer now.

What's wrong with you?

You don't know me.

What?

You're going to hunt?

You're going to hunt a deer?

You're going to aim at it?

Fabián Bielinsky

Fabián Bielinsky (3 February 1959 – 28 June 2006) was an Argentine film director born in Buenos Aires. He started to make films early in life, while still a high school student in the Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires. After graduation he started studying psychology, a career he pursued for a short time before dropping out in favor of enrolling in the Centro de Experimentacion y Realizacion Cinematografica (CERC, actually ENERC, INCAA's film school), from which he graduated in 1983 with a short film called La Espera, based on a story by Jorge Luis Borges. He directed his first film, Nine Queens (original title Nueve Reinas) in 2000, and the second one, El Aura, in 2005, which he was going to present in Edinburgh, at the International Film Festival, a month later. Both films starred Ricardo Darín in the lead role. Bielinsky died from a heart attack while in São Paulo, Brazil, casting for an advertisement. more…
