Forgotten Roads (La nave del olvido)

FORGOTTEN ROADS

The news this afternoon.

I'm your radio announcer, Paola Hunguñiel,

to inform you about the new events in the surroundings of Lautaro.

Different animals have appeared dead in the area,

from Lautaro to Curacautin.

The cases are now being investigated,

but we are ready to hear from you, our radio listeners.

Could our neighbors from the skies have something to do with this?

Where do they come from and what do they want?

Something is changing?

Do you notice anything different?

Have you seen anything unusual?

Call us at 45532862,

and tell us. Now we leave you with our sponsor,

Segral Liquor Store.

Mom!

What are you doing here?

I came to buy bread, but I didn't bring money.

But mom...

Let's go. Get in the car.

Hey, when do you have to leave the house?

- Soon. - But when is soon, mom?

I don't know.

Mr. Gonzalez's son said it could be by the end of this month,

or the middle of the next... I don't know

But, where are you going to live?

I'm going to live like a gypsy.

With the shitty money the retirement gives us.

They should give us all the money at once.

- So, I could invest in a house. - Yes.

But, they are shameless.

You will never be able to get all your money. They are waiting for your death.

So many people came that day.

To offer their support.

To give their condolences.

And afterwards, you never see them again.

I think I am going to talk with Marcela,

to get some help from the town hall.

If you want, I'll make room for you in my bedroom

I still don't get used to it.

They are pretty.

They are weird.

I like them.

You like them. I don't.

Come here turkey, turkey, turkey...

Come here turkey, turkey, turkey...

Turkey, turkey, turkey...

Come here turkey, turkey, turkey...

Turkey, turkey, turkey...

Let's eat That's it, that's it.

Ok. Come! Come! Come!

It's food.

Clau!

Clau!

Clau!

We haven't heard from you.

Hum, I've just been here.

Poor Claudinita.

And, where you plan to go?

For now, to Alejandra's place.

She already carried half of my stuff.

The other half is going to stay there, in case you are interested.

No, don't worry.

Still, I'll have a look around.

Are you going to be ok, Claudinita?

All of this is weird.

And, how is Ale? What did she say?

We don't have a choice.

Let's have a cup of tea?

Sure. I have my mind set in another place.

Don't be alone here my friend.

Be carefeul, the aliens might come for you.

Yes, you heard that right.

$4200 pesos. Right next to the gas station on Rodriguez street.

In Albertina Store you will find all the homeware you need.

Bulbs, lamps, kitchenware.

Albertina Store, all that you need.

Hello honey.

Ok.

Let me get dressed.

Alright.

Why didn't you call me mom?

Because I don't need to.

Besides, you're too busy and I don't want to bother you.

Well, sometimes I'm busy, mom. But if you had called me, I would come.

Hello neighbor. Do you need help?

- Yes, thank you! - Watch it.

- Just leave it at the entrance. - Okay.

Mom, go inside the house.

You will know that your destiny

Joins with mine

I've waited you in every corner

I have looked for you everywhere

Your kisses give me life

Brothers and Sisters, humbleness is no an appearance!

No! Humility is an attitude from heart!

God wants us to give from our souls!

God is sending to us a sacred sign with these lights!

He chose us! Hallelujah!

Brothers and Sisters, He chose Lautaro!

Come with me to the hill to celebrate the communion!

This town has been blessed!

God wants us to experience these lights with humbleness!

Don't fear them! If you don't confront him...

Hello, neighbor!

I saw you arrive with a lot of things. Are you moving here?

What?

If you are going to live here?

You are paying attention.

That's because there's not much to do here.

Don't you see that I'm always alone?

My husband travels all the time for work.

- Sorry if I bothered you. - No, no problem.

I'm going to see you more often then.

Your daughter doesn't talk much. I hope you won't be the same.

That's true. She doesn't talk much.

It's just that I get bored.

- Do you smoke? - Yes.

But I just ran out of cigarettes.

I was going to buy some now. Do you want me to bring you pack?

OK. What happened? Did you take it away from him?

No. He died.

And that was the only thing he left me.

But I don't know what to do with it. I don't even know how to drive.

- Well then, sell it. - No.

It's too soon.

Learn how to drive then.

I'm too old to learn.

I can teach you, if you want.

- And end up wrapped around on a tree. - No!

Yes, that's what happened to me last time.

Since then, my husband never lent me the car.

Why didn't you snatch it?

Oh yeah! I used it the other day.

But I'm not good at those things.

It's not that hard.

Look Claudina.

- What a beautiful lamp. - Yes, it's pretty.

I like because it's kind of magic.

- Oh, really? - Yes, but it's not for sale.

What a pitty.

What I like most about it is that it has no switch, you see?

Yes.

Hey, if...If it's not for sale, why do you have it there?

So that people ask me and I can say that it's not for sale.

And because it's pretty, and that way everyone can look at it.

I have seen you before.

Me too.

My name is Ignacia, and you?

Claudina.

That would be $5.800. ... $5.000...

... $5.000...

...$600, $5.700. No, I'll pay mine, don't worry.

No, I will pay this time.

- You invite me later. - Ok.

Alright.

That's it.

I know that, I know that.

Almost...

Where? Where? You have to guide me here.

Oh ok, ok.

- You have to go that way, to the door. - I take it, I take it.

There it goes.

There it goes.

It's good that we met.

Yes.

Your house is strange.

Strange?

I don't know, strange.

Since when are you living here?

It's almost a year now.

But, we move a lot.

Look.

I bought it from a lady on the street.

Sit down!

That's what I like about this town.

Thank you.

What was your house like?

We've lived there since we got married.

Eugenio got a job, and they gave him that house.

Do you have children?

No, not a chance.

Since I was young, I traveled a lot. having kids it was like cutting my wings.

Also later, I met Esteban.

And he understood.

And you? Just one daughter?

Yes.

You have always lived in Lautaro?

Until I got married.

As a child I wanted something to get me away from here, but...

I even asked God.

You prayed to God?

Yes, yes.

But I was very small.

My dad was very strict.

And my mom said nothing.

I couldn't stand it anymore.

Later, I had to get married.

Ale was born.
