- Well, he promised
that if I did what it takes
and we got into the playoffs
- [Ingrid] Hmm?
- Are you gonna?
[engine starts]
Are you gonna?
- Okay.
- [Sofia] All right!
[engine revs]
[tender music playing]
[Ingrid] Why did you promise her
a thing like that?
My love, she's almost 18.
She'll get her license soon.
Just gonna teach her a few things.
Santo, please.
You know how dangerous it is.
You're always making me worried...
- Mm.

[Sofia] Nah. No, thanks.
[clears throat]
Next week, we should get your mom
to come up here with us.
Or would that be the end of her?
[laughs] Oh, um
I've been meaning to tell you
about next Sunday. Um
Well, this weekend,
I have plans with Hakim.
A little retreat on a motorcycle.
No big deal, you know.
[stifles laugh]
Hmm.
Our friends will be there too, you know.
It won't just be us.
[wind blows]
Um, yeah.
[Sofia] And, do you think
you could convince Mama?
[tender music playing]
Okay.
[Sofia] Oh, my God. Thank you!
[laughs]
[exhales]
[sighs]
[Santo] Look how beautiful this is.
[Sofia] Are the mountains in Calabria
like this too?
They have the same silence.
[music fades]
Papa, why did you move here
when you were so young?
[wind blows]
For love.
Mama's a lucky woman.
[both giggle]
Come on.
Let's try and be home
before it gets dark.
Can we get one quick picture?
No. You know I don't like 'em.
Why don't you let me?
It's just to remember our day.
[Santo] We don't need a photograph
to remember it by.
[Sofia] Come on Dad, let's go.
Yeah, hold on.

I've called him hundreds of times!
[in German] He's fixing the saw.
This late?
[pouring, glass sets]
[Patrick, muffled] I tried to tell him,
but your husband is stubborn, you know?

They're dead, we have to leave.
[Sofia] You're hurting me.
Mama! [weeps]
[wails] Mom! Mom!
Mom!
[urgent music playing]
[Sofia sobs] Why are we running away?
And how could we just leave Mama

But other than that, the news is good.
[Don Angelo] Oh, I see.
Come see me at my place.
It'll be late.
[Don Angelo] Don't worry about it.
Us old folks don't sleep much.
See you later.
[latches door]
[Sofia] What is this place?
Tell me where we are,
I don't want to fucking stay here.
It's just for tonight.
Tomorrow, we'll find something better.
Pa, why haven't we called the police yet?
- [Santo] 'Cause we can't.
- Why not?
They'd take me.
But you haven't done anything wrong.
Oh, enough.
Wait, wait. Listen to me.
We're in danger,
or we wouldn't be in here.
- We're lucky not to be dead too.
- Just leave me alone.
Wait, stop!

How is that possible?
The picture looks just like him.
[Rudi] You have to fix this.
Don Angelo wants him dead,
and that brat too.
Jesus, what a goddamn mess.
You'd better hurry up, or we're dead.
You understand what I'm sayin'?
Okay, I get it. I'm on it.
And tell Vituzzo.
Tell him the bastard is still alive.

THE CALL OF THE WILD
THE CALL OF THE WILD BY JACK LONDON

Papa?
[whimpers]
Papa, please. I can't take it anymore.
[sobs]
[yells] Tell me what the fuck
are we doing here!
- [crashes]
- Why won't you answer me?
[crashes]
- [Santo] That's enough.
- [whines]
Okay, okay.
[whines]
[somber music plays]
- It's okay.
- [whining subdues]
Before I was introduced to your mother,
my whole life was different.
I was a different person.
[Sofia] Who were you?
I wasn't a good person.
You know of 'Ndrangheta?
It's a Sicilian Mafia.
And blood ties are the strongest thing
if you come from a family
that's part of it.
There's no escape.
They'd put a gun in your hand
and tell you to shoot rival families.
Either you die or the other person dies.
[tense music plays]
My name is not Santo Romeo.
[exclaims]
My real name is Domenico Franz.
[whimpers]
That's why you avoided
having your picture taken, didn't you?
Oh, God.
I
I took one of you.
It doesn't matter.
[Sofia] Yes, it does!
[yells] Because you made me
believe a lie my whole life,
and because of you, Mama is dead!

[owl calls]

[Sofia] What are you going to do?
Sofia, I'm gonna need you

You're not to use it or answer it
unless I'm the one who's calling.
You promise?
[serious music plays]
Wait for me here.
I'll be back soon.

Look at me.
Nothing will happen to us.
I swear to you.

[Hakim] What happened?
The police are looking for you.
- Are you all right?
- [Sofia] I'm all right, don't worry.
[Hakim] I'm coming for you.
Tell me where you are.
You know, I'm at the abandoned hotel
by Speikboden bend. You know it?
[Hakim] Yes, I-I got it.
Is your dad with you?
I don't know where he is,
and I don't care.
He's no longer my father.
I don't want to have anything
to do with him again.
Please, just come...
Don't worry, I'm on my way.
Please come fast. I can't wait.

They came here yesterday,
they only stayed half an hour!
I don't know anything.
They'll kill me.
I'll kill you as well,
but first I'll make you suffer like a pig.
If you tell me what I want to know,
maybe you'll get to the hospital.
[sobs]
It was Don Angelo who sent them.
I didn't need you
to tell me that, dickhead.
[yowls]

Oh Lord, I'm dying.

We can say it's our city.
Please, sir. Let's avoid scandals.
We have to be invisible,
even for the banks.
Fuck off about the banks.
[Michele] We have some 40 building sites
in Northern Italy.
We can't put everything at risk
for some sort of vendetta, sir.

- Fucking vendetta, asshole?
- Sorry...

- [Don Angelo sighs]
Franz he murdered your only brother.
You should slit his throat
with your own hands.
Instead, you sit behind a desk
counting money.
Every time I look at you, I...
What's that, huh? What's on your mind?
That Franz chose the wrong son
to be killed.

The guy with the restaurant in Bolzano.
He knew he was associated with us.
[sighs] Oh, God. No.
This situation gets
more and more fucked up.
Then he could track us. Will he?
He isn't
a person looking to escape.
He's an honorable man.
Papa, why don't you drop
this "honor story"?

Papa, do you really want to risk it all
for one man?
[Don Angelo] Michele.
Forgive me for mistreating you today.
But there are some things
that you can never understand.
Do you trust in me?

Yes, I do. Of course I do, Papa.

I still haven't thanked you
for the work you did with the faces.
[Ferrario] The facial recognition, yes?
[sips]
[cup clinks]
Did you happen to find your acquaintance?
[Don Angelo] We found him.
But it seems, he's vanished again.
It appears he's in Milan,
and he's unhappy with us.
The facial recognition
you did on the Internet
could you do that in real life,
using surveillance cameras?
[Ferrario] Uh, surveillance cameras?
Yes. Throughout Milan.
[Ferrario] With access
to the public safety network,
we can extend our search
to a greater number of people.
Is that possible?
[sinister music plays]
I worked for the state
before opening up on my own.
I know the right people.
We would appreciate it greatly.
And also for her too.
[Ferrario] I'm on it.

[radio announcer] More bloodshed
in the hunt for Domenico Franz,
the 'Ndrangheta killer
on the run since last night.
Three more deaths appear to be linked
to the criminal

who is now the most wanted man
in Northern Italy.
His daughter, Sofia, was seen
at a service station near Merano.

and very dangerous.

Please, I need help.
Where can I find the doctor?
We can't help you, get out of here.
- No, I need a doctor.
- Just go away.
Let me in. I need to find a doctor.
Leave now!
- [thumps]
- Do you want all this?
[somber music plays]
- [worker 1, in Chinese] Easy. Go easy.
- [worker 2] Right, that's right.
[Sofia, in English] Pa.

[Santo] Hello, my love.
[tender piano music plays]
If you're reading this letter,
it means I'm dead.
[stapler clicks]
- But that doesn't matter.
- [baby whines]
Because if I can say that I have lived,
it's all thanks to you.
[baby cries]
You, my love you saved my life.
- A life that didn't deserve to be saved.
- [cries]
Because it was full of nothing more
than cruelty
and violence.
I didn't know what love was
or the joy
of what it was like to be loved.
I lived to kill and killed to live.
I was just waiting for my turn to die
because I could no longer see
the difference between life and death.
I never expected that I would be saved.
But I was wrong.
Because even I,
from the pit of hell,
could still be blessed.
I knew nothing about life,
or about myself
until you came along.
Your birth was my blessing.
Sofia.
My love.

What's going on?
You were right.
Your father wants us
to keep looking for Franz.
[sighs] He's so fucking predictable.
Yes, he made me set up a much wider,
much more extended search than before.
It's complex. It's illegal.
And it'll cost you.
It's incredibly costly.
Especially because I'm gonna have to
bother a lot of people with the state.
[woman laughs in background]
I could say he couldn't be found.
No, he'd pick up on it.
He always figures out what I do.
Tell you what, let's do this.
Give him whatever he wants
but keep me informed at all times.
[Santo] I'm sorry it happened to you too.
[somber orchestral music playing]
To have to live this life.
Pass me one of those.
[grunts]
[clicks]
We have to get out of here,
as soon as possible.
[operator] We have a few positions,
all from last night.
[electronic pinging]
They're all
between Quarto Oggiaro and Bovisa.
We've located them.
[rapid beeping]
[menacing music plays]

[operator] We also located a girl
in an industrial area nearby.
A warehouse that is a front
for illegal abortions.

[worker 3] I'll leave this to you.

That's why
we must make the first move, Sofia.

- We have no choice.
Kill to not be killed.
[fluid pours]
This is a lesson
I wouldn't have wanted to teach you.
I have a precise plan
but I can't do it on my own.
I need you.
[chain rattling]
Take this.
[knife clicks]
What am I supposed to do now?
Let your hand decide.
It shouldn't feel foreign to you at all,
but like it was meant to be a part of you.
If you're using a knife,
it means you're close to your opponent,
therefore close to danger.
- [chain clinks]
- To your death.
Fear must be put aside
to leave room for action.
You wouldn't have time for a second shot,
so the first one must be lethal.
Go on, try a position.
No. No.
Always point the knife
in front of you.
You attack with the knife,
you block with the knife.
Stand diagonally.
Never offer your body to your opponent.
Always keep moving,
use the other arm to keep your balance.
[bold music plays]
If you hit him here on the flank
[chucks, rips]
he'll feel excruciating pain,
but most likely he'll survive.
Hit here, the heart
- [Sofia grunts]
- [chucks, rips]
The loss of consciousness
will be immediate.
In three seconds, he'll be dead.
But if you hit him right in the jugular
your victim will have 30 seconds
before suffocating in his own blood.
The last face he sees will not be one
of someone who loves him,
but yours.
No revenge is crueler.

I found it.
Quadra Capital. Here are the blueprints
and layout of the building.
They're on the website
of the architectural firm
that did the interior design.
Good job.
[sighs]
You think it'll be successful?
Yes.
Then what?
Well, I have a friend in South Africa.
We can stay there in the beginning.
You and I.
Mm-hmm.
[somber music playing]
I keep thinking about Mom.
Why did I have to take that photo?
[Santo] It's all my fault, Sofia,
because of the life I lived.
Forgive me.
Don't feel guilty about it, Papa.
You were just trying to survive.
You're like Buck.
THE CALL OF THE WILD
[Santo] You've read it?
Yeah, we read it in middle school.
This book was your favorite?
[Santo] I bought it at a fair.
The cover drew me in.

Just move it along.
You can exit over there.

I'm sorry. I'll leave now.

[Rudi] We got this today

That piece of shit got him.
There was a message sent with the photo.
[Santo] You have an hour,
you son of a bitch, to turn yourself in
and confess to your crimes
over the last 30 years.
[choked coughs]
Give the names of all your affiliates,
political protectors, with evidence,
and most important,
all the numbers to current bank accounts
in Europe, London and South America,
or I'll be forced to kill
another one of your sons.
I want to hear the news on TV
before midnight tomorrow,
or Michele is dead.
But you do what I ask,
and I'll let you know
where you can find him alive.
[Don Angelo snorts]
Call Ferrario.
[sinister music plays]
[electronic whirring]
[Ferrario] It's an abandoned rail yard.
The cell tower
picked up the phone for a second.
Just enough time to send the photo
before it was turned off.

Thank you.
I'm so sorry for what happened to you,

You did it
with your whole family of mafia maniacs.
It was all my father.
Sofia.
Your name is Sofia, isn't it?
I swear I only found out afterwards
what my father had done.
I swear if I had known before...
You didn't know
that your father was a mafioso?
[snorts]
You tell me.
Did you even know
who your father really was?
I know who my dad is.
I don't know what he told you,
but it's all bullshit.
[whispers] Shut the hell up.
Listen to me. You don't know anything.
You think your dad's on some kind
of righteous crusade, but he isn't.
We're the victims, the Lo Biancos.
[yells] That's bullshit!
Your father murdered my brother.
He's killed dozens of people, Sofia.
He's an inhumane being, a criminal.
I don't think you can even fathom
[somber music plays]
But you are different.
Your future is not yet written.
It's the future you imagined
until three days ago.
To have that gone forever
This is not your war, Sofia.
You're not a Franz.
Your father had no choice.
You did, but it's now or never.
Please let me go.
A-And you escape, save yourself.
Please, just untie me.
[panting]

Sofia?
Sofia, please.

[Santo] Hey, sweetheart. It's me.
[somber choral music plays]
Is everything all right?
You sound strange.
[Santo] Things didn't go well, I'm sorry.
Our plan didn't work out.
It's Franz.
He's making the call
from a cell in Agrate Brianza.
He's on the move.
[Sofia] What do you mean?
What is going on, Papa?
Are you hurt?
You okay?
The voice is feminine.
Geolocated in a fixed position.
[chief] That's his daughter.
Let's get moving.
Two squads. One for Franz,
and one for his daughter.
[Sofia] Talk to me, Pa.

But I have no choice now.
[Sofia] Please come.
Just come back. Do it for me.

[mafioso 7 groans]
[Santo] I have to do it now. Understand?
What are you saying?
I don't understand anymore.

I had changed.
[thunderclap]
I love you so much.
And now I know
you can survive without me.
[gunshot zings]
[glass shatters]

You know what will happen
if you kill me, don't you?
And how they will deal with
your bitch of a daughter?

You should've left them in peace.

We were supposed to go to South Africa.
You know you made a promise to me too.

Please. [weeps]

I've had wonderful years.
I had a family.
I had you.
A miracle.

Stand up.
Don't worry, it's all over.
[somber music picks up]
[cops speak indistinctly]
[music fades]
Franz, come with me.
Well, thanks, but I don't like chocolate.
How was your stay?
What do you want?
I spoke with the judge in your case.
There are no charges against you at all.
In the proceedings, you'll be acquitted.
And it makes me really happy.
Because you've been
at the mercy of a madman,
you've been abused.
You and I, we have the same destiny.
We've been made to pay
for the sins of our fathers.
Now we're liberated.
Is that what you came
all the way here for?
No.
I wanted to say that,
as far as I'm concerned,
the war between the Lo Bianco and Franz
it's time to finally end.
Now we're patched up.
You, before long, will come of age.
You'll get out of here
and you can have a fresh start.
If you ever need any help,
why don't you come and visit me?
You know,
I'd really love to give you a hand.
What's the plan this time?
- [door shuts]
- [engine starts]
- [Michele] I'm not sure about this.
- [ominous music plays]
I want to obliterate her.
I want her to die
with a rope squeezed around her neck,
just like my father.
"And closely akin to the visions
was the call still sounding
in the depths of the forest."
[hopeful music plays]
"It filled him with a great unrest
and strange desires."
THE CALL OF THE WILD
"It caused him to feel a vague,
sweet gladness,"
and he was aware of wild yearnings
"and stirrings for he knew not what."
[door creaks open, shutting echoes]
"He would crouch for hours,
as if in concealment,"
behind fungus-covered trunks
of fallen trees,
wide-eyed and wide-eared
"to all that moved and sounded about him."
"It might be, lying thus,
that he hoped to surprise
this call he could not understand."
"But he did not know
why he did these various things."
"He was impelled to do them"
"and did not reason about them at all."
- [music fades]
- [vehicles honk]
Talk to me.
She's not here.
[Michele] What do you mean,
she's not there?
I said I wanted her dead.
Well, she's not here.
She must've run away.
Okay, I-I'll call you back.
Sofia.
What's up? Something into you?
[menacing music plays]
How did you manage to get in?
[Sofia] With your business card
and a smile.
I bet when it comes to girls in here,
I'm not the first.
I imagine you've come, uh,
looking for the help I promised.
Now what?
[menacing music builds]
Your truce is a bust, Michele Lo Bianco.
And why is that? A brag?
[music crescendos, halts]
For it to work, it takes two of us.
[knife zings]
