Mom!
Mom!
Omar!
Oma
Omar!
[mother] Omar!
[silverware clanking]
Where were you that day,
when they took Mom away?
I told you a million times.
You were there!
I was at home.
You called the police.
[somber instrumental music plays]
You lied to me.
You've been lying to me all these years.
Why didn't Mom see me in the car?
Omar, calm down.
Do you know why she didn't see me?
Because I had become invisible.
It really happened.
And it happened again. And you knew it!
- Stop telling me bullshit!
- [slapping]
Don't you dare talk to me like that!
Do you understand?
What's going on?
Omar, please. I feel terrible.
- My eyes are burning.
- [father] What are you doing?
- You aren't going anywhere.
- What's going on?
Did you understand what I said? Did you?
[Awa] Dad? Omar?
Don't be like your mom.
Let go of this bag!
[Awa] What's going on?
I have your documents now.
You won't be going far.
We'll talk when you calm down, okay?
[Omar grunting]
[Awa] Omi.
What's going on?

DREAM OF LOVE
I made some calls.
We should get some stuff back.
Don't let it drag you down.
[Sara inhaling] You and your stupid video.
You invited them here, and they came
and trashed the place. Happy?
You like playing the big man,
but you're just a big moron.
Grow up.
[door slamming]
[sighing]
Come on, bro. Look on the bright side.
At least she didn't slap you.
Let's sort out the studio.
There's money left over from the poker.
I swear we'll find them.
[downbeat electronic music plays]
[Sharif sighing]
[music grows louder]
[Sharif grunting]
Bro, what the fuck happened here?
- They wanted to punish us.
- Punish us? What for?
For fixing the meters
with the money we won at poker.
We won?
- How?
- Yes, bro. We won.
Where the fuck were you?
- [Sharif sighing]
- I didn't want to talk to anybody.
This has to be the worst day of my life.
If you're one of those
who disappears when he gets a girl,
fine, I get it.
- But don't say
- With Anna, it's bad.
How come?
Already? What happened?
We were getting down to, I mean,
doing it and
You came too early?
No! It was my power
You mean you became invisible
while doing it?
- [Omar groans]
- [Sharif laughs]
Almost!
[Omar] I'll try to talk to her.
- Why didn't you hide in the bathroom?
- Bro, I couldn't get back to normal.
[laughing] Bummer.
[Omar sighing]
As if that wasn't enough,
I fell out with my dad, big time.
[Omar sighing]
I don't want to go home.
But I don't want to leave now either.
Those assholes can't just win.
Do you have a place to stay?
No.
[indie rock music plays]
The sky keeps staring at me ♪
Frozen in my tracks ♪
Nothing else to see ♪
And when I move my face left ♪
I think it's the first time.
[indistinct chatter]
Shall I ask the taxi to wait?
Yes, I'll be quick anyway. Go on.
- [Anna] Hi.
- Hi. I need to talk to you.
Omar, no worries.
It's all fine, but I have to go now
When I have strong feelings,
I lose control.
It's hard to explain,
but I've spent my life feeling guilty.
And I don't want to feel guilty with you.
It happened because I'm crazy about you.
Nothing else.
Listen, Omar.
Seriously, there's no need for this.
- Hey. I really like you.
- [somber music plays]
But the other night,
I turned around, and you were gone.
It's a difficult time for me.
I have many things to sort out.
I need to finish the scale model,
and I can't focus. And you
I mean, it was weird.
Very much so.
I mean really
Right now, I don't need weird things.
Omar, listen.
I'm not mad at you, honestly.
It's just that maybe,
we met at the wrong time.
Okay?
[Omar sighing]
[kissing]
[phone chiming]
[electronic music plays]
[muffled yelling, banging]
[chuckling]
So your mom's always
on night shifts at the hospital?
We need the money.
I feel sorry for her.
But at least she sleeps in the morning,
doesn't nag me to get a job.
Well, if you don't work
I mean, you don't even study.
Don't you get bored all day?
If the Barrio holds on, it's thanks to me.
Not getting paid doesn't mean not working.
A bit like social services.
Okay. Forget it.
[door creaking]
[music stops]
Don't speak. Let me do the talking.
[fridge door banging]
Who the fuck is he?
[Sharif] My friend has been
in trouble lately.
His dad's out of control.
He drinks heavily and beats him up.
Whatever he's told you, forget it.
This is my house, and it's €30 a week.
In advance.
Okay.
Honey.
[Honey] Yes, let's go.
[door shutting]
[Omar] Why the fuck did you say
all that bullshit about my dad? What for?
I'll give you the money back.
You don't need to pay to stay here.
That's how my brother is.
With people he doesn't know, he's a bit
of an asshole?
Yes, he's a bit of an asshole. Hm?
If you were inside a year, you'd be too.
He was caught
with some pot for personal use
and was treated
as if he was fucking Pablo Escobar.
Too bad. How long has he got left?
Six months.
- [lip smacking] It sucks.
- Holy shit.
Now you know
why I want to stop those bastards.
Because we always get the blame.
They piss on our heads
and tell us it's raining.
[somber synth music plays]
Piss on our heads
[Omar] Dietmar, the night before he died,
told me something weird.
Hm?
Something like,
Fidel Castro pissed on him with his cigar.
- [laughing] What?
- Yes.
With his cigar.
[Sharif chuckling]
That guy was a real loner.
Fidel Castro?
[hip-hop music plays]
[male vocalist sings in Spanish]
A tattoo on his dick?
Are you taking the piss?
It sounds crazy,
but since we don't know where to start
Dietmar once told me
that KGB paid him to poison a guy, bro.
[Sharif laughing]
- Okay.
- [Sharif] Nice shot, Momo!
So now, we have to go around
asking embarrassing questions?
Please, guys.
Fuck, bro!
What a pain you are.
[Inno] I'm not doing this, bro.
Guys, my friend Cinzia
has tattooed half of Milan.
If there's anyone
who might know something, it's her.
See, all is good in the end. Hm?
[Sara] Let's go find Fidel.
Ooh.
[male vocalist singing in Spanish]
[music stops]
SIRENETTA REAL ESTATE AGENCY
[electronic music plays]
Ta-da! The scale model is ready.
[laughing] Here's hoping!
Fingers crossed.
Wish me luck.
[tattoo needle buzzing]
She has you hooked!
- [Momo] Leave him alone.
- [Sara] They're good together.
- Sara, it's his fucking business.
- Why do you care?
- They're great together.
- She left me.
- No!
- There you are.
[Omar sighing]
Did she catch you doing it
with someone else?
No. I would never do that!
Good boy.
[Momo chuckling]
Come on in.
No, not another one. Wait.
I get it. You don't have time.
I don't have time. No one has time here.
I'll make it easy, okay?
We need you to answer a simple question.
So, would you please
give us two minutes of your fucking time?
- Come in. I'll be a minute.
- [man] Thanks.
Sara, can you tell your friend
to calm down?
Cinzia, I know it sounds crazy
and there are privacy policies,
but do you know anyone
who's got a tattoo of
Fidel Castro's face on his dick?
No. He's too dangerous.
I don't want trouble.
Listen, that guy's destroying the Barrio.
I've felt like Mob my whole life,
without a friend.
But I want to do something for the Barrio.
I'm just asking you for a name. That's it.
I promise you that even if I reach 100%,
I won't try to destroy the planet.
Okay?
[Sharif] Gentlemen,
welcome to the Hollywood of Baranzate.
[Sara gasping]
[Sharif] Not bad, Rico Robles.
[Sara] He likes showing off.
[birds chirping]
[Sharif] Zero, if you lose control,
Whatsapp me. I'll figure something out.
But, guys, just one question,
how are you going to do it?
You go in and ask him
to pull down his underpants?
[Sara and Sharif laughing]
[laughing] I don't get what the plan is.
[Sara] Be careful, Zero.
[distant dog barking]
[percussive music plays]
- [air rushing]
- [Sharif] Whoa!
Okay, okay, okay.
- When did he learn to do that?
- Not sure, but he has evolved. Zero 2.0.
[in Spanish] What are you up to, honey?
- Let me study.
- Why do you care about this coño?
- Why do I care?
- Lacan?
[woman gasping] Stop it.
- [mumbling in Spanish]baby.
- Ah.
Wait. Wait.
[voice echoing] What if she wakes up?
[Rico grunting]
She won't wake up.
[kissing]
- How do you know she won't wake up?
- [Rico muttering]
Come on, Rico.
[Rico kissing]
[woman grunting]
[Rico] Ah!
- [in Spanish] Lacan killed himself.
- [both laughing]
[both chuckling]
[Rico sighing]
[woman giggling]
[sound echoing]
[Rico grunting]
[music stops]
[phone buzzing]
- [woman] Answer.
- [Rico gasps]
- [in Spanish] Not now, look where we are.
- Get it, Rico. See if it's him.
[Rico sighing]
Don't be a dick.
I want the penthouse he promised you.
[phone buzzing]
Mami,
those pricks from Sirenetta can ask me
to destroy the Barrio bit by bit.
- As long as they pay me, estábien.
- [Omar panting]
[Rico] But they have to understand
that Rico has no boss.
[in Spanish] Rico has no boss.
[sound echoing]
- [eerie tone plays]
- [air rushing]
[child gasping]
How did you do it?
[whispering] It's a trick.
- Can you tell me how to do it?
- [Omar] Yes.
But you do it quietly.
[Omar breathing]
Focus.
- [air rushing]
- [child gasping]
- [air rushing]
- [child squealing]
[Rico] Adelita? Are you up?
[Adelita] Dad, come and see. Hurry!
[suspenseful music plays]
[Omar grunting, panting]
[Rico] Qué pasa? What happened?
[Adelita in Spanish] He's in the bathroom.
[Omar panting]
[music stops]
[suspenseful electronic music plays]
[Omar wincing, gasping]
[Omar catches his breath]
[Omar gasps]
I cry for my people every day ♪
There he is.
- [reggae music plays]
- What's that?
Wasn't he meant to just ask
to pull down his underpants?
Fucking genius.
[Sharif] Invisible genius,

- [Omar grunts] I'll tell you later.

[Momo] We brought this back home.
Fuck you!
[all laughing]
- Let's go.
- Woo!
See, bro,
there's no messing around with us.
Let's say
there's no messing around with Zero, baby.
I have to admit it, bro.
You really nailed it.
[Sharif] You know what we'll do now, bro?
We're gonna kick their ass!
Ready? IG?
- What the fuck are you doing, Sharif?
- [music stops]
Don't you get that they're real criminals?
They'll want revenge.
Stop playing the Barrio's hero.
From now on, we'll keep a low profile.
Guys, Sara's right.
Rico and his guys are dangerous,
but they're not in charge.
Huh?
Someone's paying them to trash the hood.
- Them. It's Sirenetta's fault.
- [Sharif] What?
- [Momo] The real estate agency.
- I'm sure of it.
Rico takes orders from them.
Sure.
[Sara] Rents going up.
People leaving because of vandalism.
It's all connected.
It's their bloody strategy.
Let's leave this head here.
Let's get the hell out.
Aren't you coming?
Maybe in a minute.
I need to cool off a bit.
Watch you don't get caught.
[Omar] Don't worry.
[chuckling]
I can vanish whenever I want.
