I Am Happiness on Earth (Yo soy la felicidad de este mundo)

I AM HAPPINESS ON EARTH

So?

Let's see...

Is it bad?

You just have a light sprain.

It's not that bad.

We'll run some more tests, to rule out a torn muscle.

I don't think that's it, but just to be sure.

I don't think it is grave.

But we'll do it so that you'll be sure.

You have to come to your physical therapy,

and in about a month you'll be back in rehearsals.

Be patient.

Cut rehearsal!

-Ok, that's alright. -Do we call Madame Contreras?

-Yes, please. -Johnny, do you copy?

Thanks!

I have to go.

Yeah, that's him. They say he likes dancers.

That's why he's doing this documentary.

To see if he finds a protagonist for his next film.

And you're hurt...

Tough break, huh?

But seriously, how are you doing?

Better.

The doctor says I may go back to rehearsals in a month.

Good to know.

Hey, are you coming tonight?

You should invite him.

Let's go.

-I know a rehabilitation center but I don't know if you can pay for it,

because it's a bit expensive.

I don't know.

-There's a doctor doing miracles there,

if you want I can send you the details later.

Ok.

What's your name?

Your friend didn't tell you?

He's always saying a lot of things,

but never anything important.

And you?

Me?

I try to.

What's your name?

Me?

You want some?

Where's your date?

Bathroom, I guess.

-Look, this is Sunny. -Hey...

Hey, how are you?

I'll see you around.

Look...

The hustlers are that way.

We should buy one.

-What for? -Just because.

Let's go.

Hi.

My friend and I are looking for a service.

What do you say? Are you in?

-Both of you? -Yeah, both.

We're celebrating. It's his birthday.

Ok, make it $800.

$800?

Anything goes, right?

Everything.

Except freaky stuff, OK? You pay the hotel.

But yeah, anything goes. It's all about having fun.

We have to go to an ATM, we'll be right back,

you'll be here?

-How much do you have? -We'll be right back, don't move.

What was that all about?

Tonight I'm only attracted to you.

I didn't know dancers liked to watch films.

I didn't know filmmakers liked dancers.

You're so silly.

Look.

Here.

It's yours.

Octavio...

What?

Nothing.

I love you.

-You're awake. -Your alarm went off.

What?

I completely forgot.

What are you going to do?

I don't know, I'm free today.

Why don't you wait for me? We can do something later.

How far are we, Julio?

I'm thinking 20 minutes.

-No, more than that. 15 for the dolly.

-That much? -Yeah, 15 minutes.

-Something like that. -It'll be alright. I'll call you.

Hi, how are you?

Fine, working.

Yeah, totally.

You'll wait for me then?

I don't know. I hope so. I'll make it. Late, but...

We can have dinner later, what do you think?

Hi.

What?

Waiting for someone?

What are you going to watch?

Look.

Hey, you've got a light?

I'm Sunny. Remember me?

We met at Andrés party.

Well, I saw you there. You don't seem to remember.

Sure I do. You sing, right?

Hi.

-Late. -I made it.

How are you? We're watching the same?

Octavio!

At what time are you arriving?

I don't know. Early but I'll let you now.

Ok. We'll see tomorrow.

-He was all over you. -It was you! Seriously.

He gave you a huge tip.

-Hey, that's Octavio. -Yeah, that's him.

Octavio?

Octavio!

-He's feeling awful. -I don't know what to do.

Get a little closer.

-You're already here. -Yeah. Ok.

Hey...

Let it go.

He doesn't text you back, or picks up the phone,

what more do you need?

It's over.

I'll go see.

Leave it. I like that one.

This one's better.

Are you coming out of there?

I'm leaving.

Are you alright?

Open up!

You have to pay me, I'm leaving.

What's going on?

Welcome to Cinema Crítica.

We're here today with filmmaker Emiliano Arenales Osorio,

we'll be talking to him for a few minutes.

How are you, Emiliano?

Thank you so much for agreeing to being intruded on your set,

where you're shooting your new film.

I'd like to start by asking you what's your opinion on marriage,

specially about gay marriage.

Well, marriage for me...

Hey, it's me. I'm done.

What if we meet? I hope you're free.

I'll call you later.

First of all, I think it is an obsolete kind of relationship.

I make movies so that married people in crisis

will question themselves about it.

I think it's healthier for people to end their marriages,

I hope that seeing this films will make them end their marriage.

Things start to go downhill with marriage,

and it's not necessary to make a relationship work.

-Have you ever considered doing a movie about...?

Let's examine you...

-The next one is called Octavio. -Alright.

Should I let him in?

Octavio? Come in, please.

When you're ready.

"This is a recording", I hear myself saying it.

Please leave a message--

-there's no one here.

A voice in me states: I'm not here.

I listen, but I'm not here.

I'm a hole listening to itself saying nothing.

A mumble.

A hole.

A body.

Me--

--naked like a saint pierced by arrows.

Forgotten on this empty shelf.

An empty saint on a shelf--

--on display, or in a supermarket freezer.

Frozen meat going bad.

Me.

Break the void to find you.

Break the gap,

to open up a hole where I may fit in.

To breathe.

To break the silence.

To yell.

Be a howl.

Until I may be somebody else.

There's no one here.

I can see my self having a big walk.

I go forward,

I follow the thread of a voice

that leads me to where the echo of my voice

does not have this loop where I lose myself without moving.

They can destroy us, they can destroy us.

And if I don't exist tomorrow,

I want to be able to say:

at least I made it.

And if I don't exist tomorrow,

I want to be able to say: at least I made it.

And if I don't exist tomorrow,
