Charly

I have the tide in my heart, that goes back to me like a sign.

I'm dying for my little sister, for my childhood and for my swan,

a ship according to precision with which it is stowed in the port.

Cry light-years for my sky, and I let him do it.

I am the Jersey ghost, the one who the nights of revelry are presented

to throw you the mist in kisses and collect you in their laughter

like fishing nets in July where the solitary bass shines,

the one that I saw shining... (in the fingers of sand of the earth).

"I have a lot of success with girls.

"A wink for a date.

"Charm, that's all.

"She will come back

"when night falls.

"I'll put on my white gloves.

"It's my particular style.

"Different from everyone else.

"He likes that.

"And we will dance the cha-cha-cha.

"I have a lot of success with girls.

"The charm is what does it all.

"A wink for a date.

"She will come back

"Maybe you'll call me

"to tell me that you don't forget,

"who doesn't forget that evening..."

COSTUMES AND MASKS

¡Nicolas!

Have you washed your hands? - Yeah.

You heard me?

Half of the wheel broken

and the side mirror hanging.

The car is like us.

To sell it second hand

or for scrapping.

Like the three of us.

What, still sleeping?

Get up!

Come!

Come on, go to sleep.

Get out of my sight.

Come on, go.

Quiet!

Give me 2 minutes

Why plug the cows?

Grasshopper.

There was in the South.

The grasshopper shell

They fry it and make balls...

Balls that are very crispy.

They are more than grasshoppers,

They will be locusts...

Look, come, play this.

Ven a ver.

Come and sit.

Imagine that you are in front of people.

No, standing. So.

You tickle me,

but gently.

Come on, tickle me.

- Thank you. - You are welcome.

You can take it sitting down.

How are you, Nicolas?

Can I have a glass of water?

What are you doing here? Sit down.

I was thirsty.

I, in fact, am not thirsty.

Do you want coke?

Finish the water.

Are you coming home?

Sir, do you think I will pass?

It's going to be difficult, boy.

You're a good kid, but you don't do anything.

What if I make an effort?

It should be a great effort.

and stop putting

one misspelling per word.

Or even two or three per word.

Can't anyone help you at home?

No.

Do you read something from time to time?

Not much.

You have to read to avoid mistakes.

How old are you? - Fourteen.

With so few years,

repeating would not be serious.

But repeating it would make me ashamed.

Do you know what you want to do in life?

You have a future, like everyone else.

Don't know.

"No future", ¿no?

Are you clear about your future or not?

This... I hope.

You wait... You wait what?

Whatever comes... the future.

You should know that he doesn't come alone.

¿Francois?

Go.

Cheer up. See you tomorrow.

Let's see, what time is it?

Eight.

- You think? - Yeah.

And at what time

Have you finished classes today?

This... at four twenty.

How long delay?

3 hours 40 min, I think.

3 hours 40...

At home there are some rules.

If you come back when you want,

It is not a house of order.

It's something just to eat and sleep.

Sorry, but there was

traffic problems.

Of.

What homework do you have for tomorrow?

I have to read this book.

What do you have to do with it?

Read it in its entirety.

Hurry up, take off your coat.

If not, you're going to catch a cold.

when you have to go out.

And, you know, the house is not a place

that one wants only

to eat and sleep.

At least answer!

"Spring Awakening"

What a plan!

Nicolás, do you want to go out?

You are not at home! Get out quickly.

Where are you going?

A Belle-Île-en-Mer.

Is far. I don't go that far.

Well.

How old are you?

Nineteen.

Nineteen years old and you're wandering

at night alone on the road?

Yeah.

Why are you going to Belle-Île?

I'm going to see my grandmother.

Bele-Île is far away, you know?

I can leave you in Nantes.

You will have already come a long way.

OK.

And grandma, does she know you're going?

Yeah.

He's going to pick me up at the station.

To the station?

Have you ever been with her

at Belle-Île station?

I was there a long time ago.

I almost don't remember.

There is no train there. In an island.

If you call yourself "Belle-Île"

It means it's an island, right?

Ah! She didn't remember anymore

that we had to cross the sea.

For that reason I can't take you.

By car it is not possible.

Apart from it being very far away.

And do you have money for the boat?

For...? Oh yeah.

What is your job?

Now, you know, I don't work anymore.

I'm going to see my grandchildren.

They are about your age.

But I wouldn't let them wander at night

along the roads.

My grandmother is waiting for me.

What did you do before?

I worked in insurance.

He insured vehicles.

This is Belle-Île.

Ah, Belle-Île.

This letter is addressed to François.

That is your name?

Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have it.

The letters should not be read.

Sorry.

Come on, little one, wake up.

Wake up, boy.

Wake up.

Wake up.

Do you have a cigarette?

No.

What are you doing here?

I do not know.

Are you cold?

No.

You're not from here.

No.

Why did you get up so early?

I do not know.

Do you want to come with me?

Yeah.

There's little left.

Take off your shoes.

And leave it out.

Close the door.

Put down the bag.
