Man: I KNOW THE INSTRUCTION

WHICH ETA'S MEMBERS NOT ON RECORD RECEIVE

IS NEVER TO TAKE THEIR LIVES.

THEY HAVE INSTRUCTIONS TO DEFEND THEMSELVES...

Miren: Juani feels better when she prays, but...

Josetxo's depressed.

He won't get out of bed.

He finally opened the shop today.

You have to go talk to him.

Juani said that if you went over and gave him a hug,

maybe he would feel better.

No, no. Come on, come on, come on, come on.

What kind of a person are you

if you can't even do that for a friend?

Josetxo isn't my friend.

Okay, whatever.

Don't go if you don't want to.

I'll tell Juani tomorrow

that you refused and that'll be that.

Okay, fine, fuck it.

Fine, but shut up, okay?

Please keep your mouth shut.

Damn, Josetxo.

God damn it.

I figured you'd come talk to me.

I was expecting you.

Well, you know how my wife is.

I don't know what to say.

Finally someone with some honesty.

Come on, let's go inside.

Grab whatever you want from the counter

if you're hungry.

There's no bread.

Don't worry about it, I'm fine.

They're all lying, Joxian...

the police,

the leftist nationalists,

all of them.

The truth is worth nothing to them.

Some detectives in France

caught one of ETA's leaders...

with a lot of info.

They're arresting a bunch of 'em.

And Jokin thought they'd catch him.

He got paranoid.

And so he killed himself.

They didn't even let me organize his funeral.

They just grabbed my boy...

and threw their little patriotic number.

His death came in very handy.

They could use it for their political purposes.

Like they do with all of them.

Just sheep,

that's what they are.

Genuinely naive.

It's the same with Joxe Mari.

They get into their heads,

they give them a gun,

and they go kill.

Then later, they think they're heroes for having a gun.

They leave their job, their families, their friends.

They leave all of it behind

and do whatever those exploiters tell them to do.

Leaving widows and orphans wherever they go.

Don't go around saying that, okay?

I'll say whatever the fuck I want to.

Look at Txato, no one talks to him.

Well, you should, because you're his friend.

Then they'd shun me too.

What a country of liars and cowards.

Joxian, listen to me.

You should go find your son.

It's not that easy.

If I had known where Jokin was,

I would've told the cops

and I'd still have a son now.

He'd be in jail.

I wouldn't care if he didn't wanna talk to me,

because you can leave jail someday,

but not the grave.

Man: GOOD EVENING.

AS WAS EXPECTED,

TERRORIST JOKIN ETXEVESTE BURGOS' SUICIDE YESTERDAY

HAS LED TO INCIDENTS IN THE BASQUE COUNTRY TODAY

AND ACTS OF PROTEST LED BY

THE BASQUE NATIONALIST LEFT WING...

Of course.

You're the ones that killed him.

You bastards!

Man: AT MARBELLA, A PROTEST WAS HELD

BY A GROUP OF MEN

AGAINST THE ORDERS GIVEN BY...

That was quick.

Were you able to cheer Josetxo up?

Not even close.

He brought me down with him.

Don't ever ask me to go see him again.

Man: ...OF ETA'S DONOSTI CELL,

WHOSE THREE MEMBERS WERE SHOT DEAD

IN YESTERDAY'S SHOOTOUT...

I can't wait for the police to catch Joxe Mari

so all this comes to an end.

Man: SAN SEBASTIAN, YESTERDAY'S EARLY MORNING HOURS.

THE RADICALS...

I keep praying to San Ignacio

that the police will catch him.

The French one, not the Spanish.

So he'll be in jail a while, stay out of trouble.

Then they give him back to me.

When I used to say that, you got angry.

Man: ...NATIONAL ATTENTION FOR THEIR AGENDA.

THE SITUATION IN BILBAO IS...

What do you know about what a mother feels?

What about what a father feels?

Man: ...BY FIRING SEVERAL SHOTS IN THE AIR

IN ATTEMPT TO DISPERSE A GROUP OF...

Txopo: The target should be far from home base,

so once you finish the mission,

you can go back to your normal life.

Can't we just keep the ammo at home?

No.

It has to be in the forest.

If we get caught, other comrades can use it.

Here.

You ready?

Let's hit 'em hard.

Hi. Two lattes.

Joxe: Thanks.

- Man: What's going on? - Woman: What's going on?

Man: Get inside!

It might go off again.

Call an ambulance, please!

Someone call an ambulance!

Motherfuckers!

Motherfuckers!

Why the fuck are you out here?

The lights are off

and the coin isn't in the mailbox.

Let's go.

Patxo: What's wrong?

Renal colic. It's worse if I move.

Where were you?

Joxe: Fuck, why didn't you turn the light on?

Because I barely even made it back here.

Joxe: Where does it hurt?

We can't bring a doctor here inside the house.

It's risky to take her outside.

We have to do something. It's worse if she dies.

Come on, Txopo, hang in there.

Come on, open up.

Come on, let's go. Come on.

Let's go.

It's fuckin' freezing.

- Get back to the flat. - What the fuck?

Just go.

Is this the hospital?

There's a girl here, she's in pain.

I don't know,

on a bench, um, at the Ondarreta Beach Gardens.

Hurry.

Miren: You're going out on that bike?

It's raining.

I know, that's why I'm wearing this.

What, you think you're still in your 30s?

Um, can I get some flowers?

These right here.

- Here. - Thank you.

Oh, for Christ's sake.

Bittori: Don't worry about that, Joxian.

What?

You can't ride your bike inside the cemetery,

but it's no problem walking with it.

Are you sure? I...

I left the lock at home.

It's okay, come on, trust me on this one.

Let's go.

I didn't know if, if you'd be here or not, huh.

Well, here I am.

You're a man of your word.

You and my daughter are setting me up.

I kept my promise.

I hope you keep yours and don't tell Miren about this.

Well, you don't have to worry about that.

Look, your daughter keeps saying that you have a good heart.

Txato's going to love those flowers.

Okay, okay, okay.

And, um, coming here with the bike.

He's gonna be jealous.

Come on, please stop that.

Oh?

I thought you brought it as a homage.

I've been waiting for years to have him move back

to our hometown, but...

we would never dare do it.

They might cover him in graffiti like the others.

Aren't you gonna tell him what you told me in the garden?

I thought that was why you came.

Can I be alone with him for just a minute?

Sure.

I'm gonna go.
