Transcript

Fidel is a child who lives in the depths of Monte de Puerto Libertad, Misiones. At the age of twelve he works in the field and competes in races with Che, his horse. With these races he seeks to win in order to earn money and help his mother who lives deep in the heart of Paraguay. But Che will have a near-fatal accident and the child will try to heal him with his limited resources. Fidel must wait for his partner or race with another horse. While he awaits his friend's fate, he will ride Lunita de Libertad, always wearing his lucky Maradona jersey, awakening even more hope in the peasants who follow him. With an epic humanity, the small but great jockey will make his way into the improvised turf court built on the land claimed by Alto Paraná S.A.Multinational, a company that owns 10% of the Missionary territory and that is in conflict with the peasants residing there. Riding on his dream horse, the borders will be blurred with his Sapucai roar, a cry from the noble roots of his Guarani blood, shouts that mimic "freedom’s call, which expands the asphyxiated lungs of those who wish to be, ask for rhythm, beg for justice for what they feel to be excessive."

00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:34.440
Mouth... mouth...--

00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:38.040
Woah boy!

00:04:38.320 --> 00:04:40.040
Little Horse

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.120

The race of the year
The brave

00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:01.600
spirit of Che Negrito

00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:05.080
The little one and Diego
are in their hearts

00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:06.000
with Fidel

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:08.440
Will “The Machine” be able
to defeat Fidel?

00:05:08.440 --> 00:05:09.480
Maradona’s jersey

00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:11.120

00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:14.160
A rematch to defend

00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:17.400
The title of Champion
in the big cuadrera race

00:05:17.400 --> 00:05:20.600
At the New Freedom Movement Racetrack.

00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:22.040
There will be live music

00:05:22.080 --> 00:05:22.760
Traditional food

00:05:22.760 --> 00:05:24.880
Skewered roasted meat

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:32.800
When I went to Argentina...

00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:37.320
I went with my brother
To tend to some horses

00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.000
Our life was really tough,

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:42.040
We didn’t make much…

00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.960
We didn’t live well there

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:47.480
It was complicated because

00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.240
There was so little to eat

00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:53.520
My brother and I
Endured a lot

00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:55.400
We also missed our mom

00:05:55.400 --> 00:05:56.480
so much

00:05:56.520 --> 00:05:59.560
I wanted to go back to Paraguay

00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:03.840
A long time had passed
Without seeing them

00:06:04.344 --> 00:06:08.204
Christmas, Argentina.
Puerto Libertad Misiones Mountain.

00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:29.160
Man,

00:06:30.320 --> 00:06:34.440
We came to visit Misiones, Argentina

00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:36.440
For the first time

00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.240
Because a caretaker recommended me

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:42.200
Do you want to train Che Negrito?
he says

00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.080
Of course!

00:06:46.080 --> 00:06:50.800
He’s not a horse that
can be tamed, but...

00:06:50.840 --> 00:06:56.000
He tells me, Che Negrito -
He can run

00:06:56.200 --> 00:06:59.880
Then I thought, I‘ll bring Fidel!
Fidel will be able to ride him.

00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:01.200
Alright

00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.680
Fidel, do you remember?
You were with me then

00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:05.000
Right, Fidel?

00:07:05.025 --> 00:07:05.815
Yeah

00:07:05.840 --> 00:07:07.840
We’re going to race With Che

00:07:07.840 --> 00:07:09.520
El Che Negrito
It’ll be hard

00:07:09.640 --> 00:07:11.360
I told Fidel,

00:07:11.640 --> 00:07:14.640
We have to win this race

00:07:14.640 --> 00:07:17.360
Fidel, give me 3,700 pesos

00:07:17.440 --> 00:07:19.960
And I went to bet it all

00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:22.240
I said to Fidel,

00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:24.920
Let’s work hard and fight,
brother!

00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:26.600
We work hard

00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:28.320
And we’re brave

00:07:28.320 --> 00:07:31.120
You and I are both brave,

00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:35.560
Fidel tells me, no matter what!

00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:36.600
No matter what!

00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:40.000
We have to beat
the Brazilians

00:07:40.125 --> 00:07:42.360
You take hold of Che Negrito

00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:43.960
with the reins really tight

00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:45.600
And you fly like a rocket

00:07:45.640 --> 00:07:47.040
I said to Fidel,

00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:50.120
If we lose this race,

00:07:50.145 --> 00:07:53.400
We’re leaving Argentina and going home!

00:07:54.767 --> 00:07:58.031
Christmas, Paraguay
Italkyry Mountain.

00:08:01.249 --> 00:08:05.000
At 6 years old,

00:08:07.129 --> 00:08:10.280
He already liked this sport

00:08:10.960 --> 00:08:17.200
He loved the horses,
Always mounting them...

00:08:17.200 --> 00:08:18.800
Me being his father,

00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:21.160
I enjoyed it
I would always go with him

00:08:21.200 --> 00:08:26.800
He was always dying to ride

00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:29.160
I told my wife: This kid

00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:30.840
really wants to ride horses

00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.600
So, teach him to ride,
Was her response

00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:38.040
So that’s how we began to
Practice and train

00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:40.280
After about 22 or 30 days,

00:08:40.280 --> 00:08:41.680
He could already ride so well

00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:43.400
And was already making a name
For himself

00:08:43.520 --> 00:08:46.080
He was just so talented
On horseback

00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:51.640
He was famous in our region

00:08:55.200 --> 00:09:02.240
And it was going really well for us,
racing

00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:04.000
In Paraguay he never lost

00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:05.240
Not a single race

00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:06.880
If you ask around in Itakyry

00:09:06.880 --> 00:09:08.440
The town of Itakyy...

00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.234
Everyone there knows us

00:09:11.234 --> 00:09:14.320
I’m not kidding...

00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.770
He is such a brave kid

00:09:17.283 --> 00:09:19.153
Bad things were always
forbidden

00:09:19.904 --> 00:09:21.156
I always told my kids that,

00:09:21.741 --> 00:09:24.857
Don’t do bad things, kids

00:10:01.002 --> 00:10:03.073
I missed my mother a lot

00:10:03.604 --> 00:10:08.346
I wanted to go back to Paraguay to see her

00:10:08.705 --> 00:10:12.065
But I didn't have the cash

00:10:12.353 --> 00:10:14.763
To be able to do that

00:10:14.787 --> 00:10:17.427
We missed each other

00:11:05.277 --> 00:11:08.175
That fish is enormous

00:11:16.658 --> 00:11:17.795
Come on, let’s go fishing!

00:11:28.887 --> 00:11:30.645
Are there fish here?

00:11:40.700 --> 00:11:45.218
Aren’t you a little cold?
If we’re outside, it’s colder

00:11:52.868 --> 00:11:55.617
- fish
- are there fish?

00:11:56.881 --> 00:12:00.792
black, duck black is going out

00:12:01.473 --> 00:12:06.145
I dropped the line

00:12:09.458 --> 00:12:10.912
Over there

00:12:24.242 --> 00:12:26.891
-Any bites? -There are no fish here

00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:30.587
No fish

00:12:41.903 --> 00:12:46.193
I’m going to cast the line,
I might be able to catch a catfish

00:12:47.018 --> 00:12:49.050
I would eat it raw

00:13:01.131 --> 00:13:02.996
What are we going to eat, huh?

00:13:03.372 --> 00:13:07.435
Will we be able to fish?
Maybe a boga?

00:13:08.467 --> 00:13:09.395
If you can catch it

00:13:12.369 --> 00:13:13.724
You got a Yuka!

00:13:13.724 --> 00:13:15.697
Kiss my ass!

00:13:17.054 --> 00:13:19.591
Don’t be a smartass

00:14:07.893 --> 00:14:10.302
We’ll eat a boga
You got a bite?

00:14:11.053 --> 00:14:12.855
Looks like the cops are coming!

00:14:14.964 --> 00:14:15.748
What?

00:14:15.748 --> 00:14:18.092
Let them come over here

00:14:18.092 --> 00:14:20.189
What are we going to do if the cops come?

00:14:21.086 --> 00:14:24.192
Relax, the water’s not
Their jurisdiction

00:14:27.288 --> 00:14:27.940
And those ones?

00:14:30.717 --> 00:14:32.033
That’s their property

00:14:34.970 --> 00:14:37.891
We should go, then

00:14:37.891 --> 00:14:39.393
I think up to here is their property

00:14:39.393 --> 00:14:41.706
And from there it’s the other one

00:15:00.485 --> 00:15:02.612
They’ve got rifles

00:15:02.612 --> 00:15:05.515
Are you scared?
Miguel walks around with his gun

00:15:05.515 --> 00:15:07.234
He’s always guarding the fields

00:16:21.340 --> 00:16:25.445
Fidel, tell him what you did
to Yuka

00:16:26.066 --> 00:16:28.410
You tell him
You’re the storyteller

00:16:30.454 --> 00:16:33.327
Okay, we went to the tournament

00:16:33.327 --> 00:16:34.771
A really tough competition

00:16:35.562 --> 00:16:38.618
When I went into that race

00:16:38.618 --> 00:16:40.253
This son of a bitch told me

00:16:42.076 --> 00:16:43.513
Get your donkey out of here!

00:16:43.538 --> 00:16:45.427
Get your donkey off the track!

00:16:46.475 --> 00:16:49.559
They had these huge horses!

00:16:50.641 --> 00:16:52.606
Huge for being racing horses

00:16:53.259 --> 00:16:54.714
With our horses!

00:16:55.582 --> 00:16:57.701
They brought
fireworks with them

00:16:57.727 --> 00:16:59.342
And a bunch of things

00:16:59.367 --> 00:17:00.485
To celebrate

00:17:00.516 --> 00:17:01.858
The Brazilians?

00:17:01.858 --> 00:17:03.154
Yeah, the Brazilians

00:17:03.673 --> 00:17:07.857
275 pesos and 85 centavos for Negrito,

00:17:08.204 --> 00:17:10.675
No more, no less!

00:17:12.662 --> 00:17:14.928
We brought Che into the gate

00:17:14.928 --> 00:17:16.512
He escaped and went off running!

00:17:18.674 --> 00:17:21.264
He just left? Yuka

00:17:21.264 --> 00:17:22.591
Che was mad!

00:17:22.591 --> 00:17:24.908
He went over to the reedbed

00:17:24.931 --> 00:17:27.937
He kicked everything, he broke a door

00:17:28.991 --> 00:17:31.079
He got out by himself!

00:17:34.157 --> 00:17:36.446
Look, he ran that way

00:17:37.116 --> 00:17:38.642
Che got angry with
me and He left

00:17:38.941 --> 00:17:42.223
He stayed far away between the
Sweet reeds

00:17:42.204 --> 00:17:42.204
Don’t be afraid

00:17:42.204 --> 00:17:42.904
We wouldn’t have anything to eat

00:17:42.258 --> 00:17:44.491
Then Che Negrito came back

00:17:44.848 --> 00:17:49.407
Fidel and I went to get him
Right, Fidel?

00:17:49.641 --> 00:17:50.804
Yep

00:17:50.998 --> 00:17:52.571
There he stopped right in front of us.

00:17:53.069 --> 00:17:54.979
And it was as if he were telling us

00:17:55.198 --> 00:17:56.718
Okay, now we’re going to win

00:17:57.908 --> 00:17:58.973
We’re going to win this race!

00:17:59.378 --> 00:18:00.893
The horse came up and licked
my face

00:18:01.214 --> 00:18:02.553
I grabbed him by the muzzle
and brought him towards me

00:18:02.907 --> 00:18:02.907
We had a really bad time

00:18:03.002 --> 00:18:04.071
I insisted, Fidel

00:18:05.217 --> 00:18:06.898
We’re gonna win this race

00:18:08.184 --> 00:18:09.913
Because if we lost this one

00:18:13.175 --> 00:18:15.242
We were going to have problems

00:18:19.235 --> 00:18:21.148
Box, box, box

00:18:30.976 --> 00:18:31.840
It vibrated

00:18:32.163 --> 00:18:36.577
Yuka was a machine, you wouldn’t believe it

00:18:36.698 --> 00:18:39.052
Yuka, a real beast!

00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:41.352
Come on, Che! Let’s go, Che!

00:18:41.352 --> 00:18:42.645
It’s your day, I told him!

00:18:42.957 --> 00:18:44.462
He ran so fast,
It scared me

00:18:44.841 --> 00:18:46.707
You wouldn’t believe me
If I told you

00:18:46.954 --> 00:18:48.787
Let’s go, Che!,
Let’s go, Che!

00:18:49.024 --> 00:18:51.793
Go for it

00:18:52.463 --> 00:18:54.352
Today is your day

00:18:57.302 --> 00:18:59.406
Look at how that horse runs!

00:19:00.018 --> 00:19:04.403
That little horse that can run
The Brazilians would say

00:19:04.554 --> 00:19:08.137
I would laugh at the Brazilians

00:19:08.505 --> 00:19:10.723
Fidel would say to them,

00:19:10.778 --> 00:19:12.306
You guys are garbage

00:19:13.222 --> 00:19:14.729
The caretaker has arrived!

00:19:15.250 --> 00:19:17.953
I rode up standing on my horse

00:19:18.792 --> 00:19:20.640
Do you remember?

00:19:21.164 --> 00:19:23.471
I was galloping standing on Che

00:19:25.037 --> 00:19:29.264
I have my picture standing up
Riding my horse

00:19:29.695 --> 00:19:35.206
I told them, THIS is
Che Negrito, idiots

00:19:36.499 --> 00:19:38.272
Come get me, kids

00:19:38.568 --> 00:19:39.797
You’ll never catch me

00:19:40.358 --> 00:19:43.193
I was so happy

00:19:44.655 --> 00:19:46.903

It was amazing, it surprised me

00:19:50.059 --> 00:19:51.992
Run that,

00:19:54.284 --> 00:19:56.273
Everything else was catching fire,

00:20:00.352 --> 00:20:04.670
The people said the horse

00:20:04.782 --> 00:20:06.200
Was useless

00:20:07.745 --> 00:20:12.331
Fidel was the one who made it happen

00:20:13.334 --> 00:20:14.104
He ran with the horse

00:20:14.104 --> 00:20:15.526
And we always won

00:20:38.718 --> 00:20:41.778
And how did Che get injured?

00:20:42.504 --> 00:20:44.312
We were headed back

00:20:44.312 --> 00:20:45.273
From that race we won

00:20:46.005 --> 00:20:49.006
We all got drunk

00:20:50.134 --> 00:20:52.174
When we got back from the competition

00:20:52.674 --> 00:20:55.883
7 kilometers away

00:20:55.883 --> 00:20:58.017
We realized

00:20:59.193 --> 00:21:02.411
A truck driver signaled us

00:21:04.187 --> 00:21:05.554
I looked over

00:21:06.409 --> 00:21:08.570
What a disaster

00:21:08.675 --> 00:21:10.004
I saw his hoof trapped

00:21:10.290 --> 00:21:11.763
In the trailer

00:21:12.180 --> 00:21:13.557
My God

00:21:21.493 --> 00:21:24.114
I kept telling Cantero

00:21:33.859 --> 00:21:36.742
I looked into Che’s eyes

00:21:36.742 --> 00:21:38.474
As he licked my face

00:21:38.749 --> 00:21:41.896
He rested his head
On my chest

00:21:42.245 --> 00:21:44.288
While he gave me kisses

00:21:44.288 --> 00:21:45.503
"You’re really hurt, boy"

00:21:45.644 --> 00:21:48.886
It seemed like he was crying and telling me

00:21:49.120 --> 00:21:50.461
As he was whinnying

00:21:50.461 --> 00:21:51.816
With a certain sadness he seemed to say,

00:21:51.933 --> 00:21:53.594
“This is the end.”

00:21:53.595 --> 00:21:56.071
"This is the end for me."

00:21:56.071 --> 00:21:58.790
I looked at him and told him,

00:21:59.023 --> 00:22:00.544
Don’t do this to me

00:22:00.663 --> 00:22:04.804
I’ve been through a lot for you

00:22:04.921 --> 00:22:08.396
I’ve been feeding you for six months,
buddy

00:22:08.896 --> 00:22:10.896
I put you in your stall,
You don’t lack for anything

00:22:12.630 --> 00:22:15.175
I’m sorry, dad

00:22:15.255 --> 00:22:16.768
Sometimes I cry a lot

00:22:16.844 --> 00:22:18.547
for my beautiful horse

00:22:50.594 --> 00:22:53.985
I don’t know what I would do
If he died

00:22:54.146 --> 00:22:55.964
After that accident

00:22:57.502 --> 00:23:01.893
When I took him out of the
trailer very hurt

00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:04.554
Aquino asked me,

00:23:04.625 --> 00:23:06.265
"Why don’t you put that animal
out of his misery? ”

00:23:06.660 --> 00:23:10.185
I answered,
How would you feel?

00:23:10.930 --> 00:23:14.998
We all want to live in this world, Yuka

00:23:14.998 --> 00:23:17.998
Even paralyzed people want to

00:23:18.498 --> 00:23:21.129
He told me to kill him

00:23:21.629 --> 00:23:24.861
I told him, no! I’ll make him better,
He’s going to live!

00:23:25.155 --> 00:23:27.271
I’m going to work hard to make him better

00:23:27.335 --> 00:23:29.158
Negrito is going to make it

00:23:29.983 --> 00:23:32.655
He’ll race again

00:23:33.655 --> 00:23:36.185
Within 3 or 4 years, he’ll run again

00:23:36.185 --> 00:23:39.153
In 2 years he’ll go back to racing

00:24:00.513 --> 00:24:06.625
Right now Che needs medicine

00:24:06.650 --> 00:24:11.607
He got infected with worms

00:24:11.802 --> 00:24:15.396
Most of the time I don’t have curavichera

00:24:15.421 --> 00:24:18.097
Because there’s no money to buy it

00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:25.097
Che is kind of fucked

00:24:25.097 --> 00:24:28.097
Sometimes it’s tough, man

00:25:20.295 --> 00:25:22.873
There’s a quarter of a chicken thigh here

00:25:23.107 --> 00:25:26.488
And Yuka’s eating it up!

00:25:56.412 --> 00:25:57.912
Have some cold water...

00:25:58.860 --> 00:26:02.398
Bring me another one grilled,
Pretty boy

00:26:48.397 --> 00:26:51.283
How much did the medicine
cost you?

00:28:25.007 --> 00:28:28.507
Someday I’ll have
my own family

00:28:31.939 --> 00:28:33.939
But it’s going to be a struggle

00:28:56.078 --> 00:28:58.698
I don’t know if I’ll leave my farm

00:28:59.198 --> 00:29:00.921
I’m not sure

00:29:00.921 --> 00:29:02.273
I’m also not sure if I’ll go

00:29:02.273 --> 00:29:06.878
I should make my own ranch

00:29:13.783 --> 00:29:16.462
There the gendarmerie surrounded us

00:29:17.206 --> 00:29:18.865
We put on a brave face

00:29:18.865 --> 00:29:20.531
In front of them

00:29:20.615 --> 00:29:22.655
There were a lot of us
In that community

00:29:33.197 --> 00:29:36.318
That’s how I got

00:29:37.061 --> 00:29:41.500
The land for my farm

00:29:50.875 --> 00:29:52.893
Those of the Alto Paraná

00:29:53.297 --> 00:29:55.493
They just want to plant pine trees here!

00:30:01.184 --> 00:30:02.745
The farm...

00:30:03.311 --> 00:30:05.413
Is my job

00:30:25.493 --> 00:30:27.739
This is for my horse

00:30:27.739 --> 00:30:31.091
With Erico we had a place there

00:30:31.797 --> 00:30:33.069
But the police showed up

00:30:33.069 --> 00:30:33.945
And they took away his land

00:30:34.595 --> 00:30:36.415
And they said it was because

00:30:36.553 --> 00:30:37.891
It was a place they could plant pines

00:30:37.891 --> 00:30:42.438
That’s how they took Erico’s land

00:30:44.040 --> 00:30:45.748
Those of the Alto Parana

00:30:46.439 --> 00:30:50.132
They came with the police and everything

00:31:01.193 --> 00:31:02.914
They told him it wasn’t
his lot

00:31:02.914 --> 00:31:04.139
And that he couldn’t build there

00:31:04.164 --> 00:31:05.986
Because it was a spot for pine trees

00:31:06.157 --> 00:31:09.625
That’s why Erico he came back here

00:31:22.111 --> 00:31:26.256
The pines only bring sadness

00:31:26.614 --> 00:31:27.744
There are no sounds

00:31:27.744 --> 00:31:29.563
Not a single bird sings

00:31:29.563 --> 00:31:30.870
Everyone is silent

00:31:32.063 --> 00:31:33.952
Because of the amount
Of pines there

00:31:33.977 --> 00:31:40.023
You can’t even hear the breeze

00:32:48.048 --> 00:32:50.479
Alright!

00:32:52.260 --> 00:32:54.443
Mark that dummy!

00:33:55.381 --> 00:34:00.361
Onion, onion, onion
Some onion, onion, onion

00:34:42.486 --> 00:34:44.686
Just take him the leaves

00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:46.752
Come on, Fidel!

00:34:46.752 --> 00:34:48.983
Take him the leaves,
not that!

00:34:48.983 --> 00:34:50.259
For the crazy!

00:34:51.203 --> 00:34:53.724
I’ll bring him some water

00:34:54.071 --> 00:34:56.254
It’s okay, don’t take him anymore

00:35:19.877 --> 00:35:23.380
It’s going to be difficult to
Get out of this situation

00:35:23.381 --> 00:35:26.004
It’s awful with the rain

00:35:27.213 --> 00:35:28.561
without money

00:35:33.173 --> 00:35:37.931
It’s a disaster when it rains

00:35:39.064 --> 00:35:41.594
You can’t even pick up any grass

00:35:46.779 --> 00:35:48.772
The truth is, we’ve been through
a lot

00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:50.130
With our horse

00:35:52.100 --> 00:35:54.748
The rain is horrible

00:35:57.051 --> 00:35:58.796
When it rains it’s not good here

00:39:30.425 --> 00:39:32.006

Son,

00:39:35.411 --> 00:39:36.758
Get out of here

00:41:39.803 --> 00:41:40.881
We’re done!

00:41:57.332 --> 00:41:58.627
Let’s go clean off!

00:42:00.066 --> 00:42:01.835
Throw me water, I’m going to shower

00:42:16.902 --> 00:42:17.727
Is it hot?

00:43:37.664 --> 00:43:41.539
Bring us a beer, please!

00:43:48.553 --> 00:43:52.207
¡Maradona!

00:47:50.099 --> 00:47:53.099
We had been through a lot
with our horse

00:47:53.099 --> 00:47:55.599
And Negrito died

00:47:55.599 --> 00:47:58.599
We were in a tough spot

00:47:58.599 --> 00:48:02.099
Our beautiful horse
Had just died

00:48:10.755 --> 00:48:12.517
Yuka had the most bitter part

00:48:16.641 --> 00:48:19.141
He worked nonstop

00:48:21.599 --> 00:48:25.099
He made a huge sacrifice

00:48:25.457 --> 00:48:28.126
He was burned out
from so much work

00:48:53.503 --> 00:48:54.747
Buy me a drink

00:48:54.965 --> 00:48:58.965
You want a glass of wine?

00:48:59.149 --> 00:48:59.749
Yeah

00:49:05.121 --> 00:49:08.121
I told you one drink...but I
already had two

00:49:08.309 --> 00:49:11.309
Do you have to sit down or what?

00:49:11.606 --> 00:49:14.106
That’s how I worked when I was 6 years old

00:49:14.606 --> 00:49:19.356
I was already working with
the asada in my hand

00:49:19.854 --> 00:49:22.043
When you were just a little dumbass?

00:49:22.379 --> 00:49:23.495
I guess so

00:49:23.921 --> 00:49:25.289
And I didn’t want to work

00:49:25.532 --> 00:49:28.621
And my old man used to hit me

00:49:28.840 --> 00:49:32.452
So with all of that I had to work

00:49:32.477 --> 00:49:35.477
My dad!

00:49:35.477 --> 00:49:38.477
And it’s fine,
It’s fine

00:49:38.661 --> 00:49:41.161
So I worked

00:49:41.893 --> 00:49:44.862
And from then on, I stopped

00:49:45.546 --> 00:49:47.882
Weeding all of that

00:49:48.530 --> 00:49:51.851
And from there I started taking care
Of horses, all that

00:49:58.080 --> 00:50:00.728
And now I’m well known

00:50:01.849 --> 00:50:04.090
I’m a renowned caretaker

00:50:06.746 --> 00:50:08.922
Well, I’m the ones who does the races

00:50:09.039 --> 00:50:12.090
I take my mare
To the stable

00:50:12.153 --> 00:50:14.674
But I only take her out if
I’m going to win

00:50:14.674 --> 00:50:18.174
I’m not going to lose

00:50:18.174 --> 00:50:21.674
With my mare, I never lose

00:50:25.697 --> 00:50:26.923
That’s it girl, that’s it!

00:50:28.283 --> 00:50:29.447
Daughter

00:51:13.577 --> 00:51:15.445
My little mare

00:51:27.325 --> 00:51:32.255
I love you girl, I love you!
I love you, love you!

00:51:32.255 --> 00:51:35.605
We won! Us!

00:51:49.708 --> 00:51:50.116
Kuaty!

00:51:50.116 --> 00:51:52.088
Come quickly!

00:51:53.196 --> 00:51:55.109
Hurry!

00:51:55.546 --> 00:51:57.644
It’s like she hid

00:51:57.684 --> 00:52:00.292
I went to look for you twice!

00:52:03.530 --> 00:52:07.530
And I looked for you

00:52:07.530 --> 00:52:11.699
How beautiful!

00:52:13.161 --> 00:52:14.321
Tell Araujo

00:52:14.361 --> 00:52:15.597
I don’t know if it’s them

00:52:15.605 --> 00:52:17.407
That made the promise

00:52:19.433 --> 00:52:25.665
He will be in our favor,
if we are secconds.

00:52:28.009 --> 00:52:28.555
Quickly!

00:52:29.020 --> 00:52:30.102
If we're going to do it.

00:52:30.839 --> 00:52:31.955
Where’s your horse?

00:52:31.979 --> 00:52:32.593
Huh?

00:52:32.669 --> 00:52:33.388
Your horse?

00:52:33.613 --> 00:52:35.389
I’m working with her

00:53:01.638 --> 00:53:03.134
How many laps did she do already?

00:53:04.853 --> 00:53:07.013
She did three already

00:53:07.436 --> 00:53:09.728
Walk a little with him

00:53:38.338 --> 00:53:40.617
Hey Fidel

00:53:40.973 --> 00:53:42.088
What’s up?

00:53:42.088 --> 00:53:43.753
Your hat,
It looks like it fell off

00:54:20.248 --> 00:54:22.957
This strap is really tough to tighten

00:54:33.733 --> 00:54:36.353
Take this off of him

00:55:45.619 --> 00:55:50.217
Hold his side

00:55:52.717 --> 00:55:53.807
Okay

00:56:13.455 --> 00:56:15.207
How many meters?

00:56:15.628 --> 00:56:17.102
300

00:59:04.917 --> 00:59:08.402
Come on, black, run!

00:59:25.506 --> 00:59:28.795
Come on, black, run!

01:00:23.611 --> 01:00:25.201
His arm is broken

01:00:28.078 --> 01:00:30.469
- It broke right there, do you see it?
- I can see it

01:00:30.749 --> 01:00:32.070
He fell really badly

01:00:32.070 --> 01:00:33.912
It hurts a lot right here

01:00:34.858 --> 01:00:36.263
He got hit with the saddle

01:00:37.272 --> 01:00:39.018
Can you move your legs?

01:00:39.018 --> 01:00:39.999
Yes

01:00:44.611 --> 01:00:45.726
And your mare?

01:00:53.733 --> 01:00:55.809
Did she pass out?

01:01:04.825 --> 01:01:07.050
The arm,
It got dislocated

01:01:07.075 --> 01:01:08.674
That’s the only thing that hurts, Fidel?

01:01:08.699 --> 01:01:10.161
Where does it hurt, Fidel?

01:01:13.387 --> 01:01:14.487
Are you going to pick him up?

01:01:15.110 --> 01:01:16.595
Hold on, a truck is coming

01:01:16.751 --> 01:01:17.524
Are you all right, brother?

01:01:17.586 --> 01:01:19.399
No, but he has to wait for the truck

01:01:19.433 --> 01:01:20.863
Bring the rope

01:01:20.863 --> 01:01:21.889

Do you know how to drive or not?

01:02:19.333 --> 01:02:20.406
Let’s go!

01:02:24.869 --> 01:02:26.139
The second one’s not working!

01:04:16.292 --> 01:04:17.379
Fidel! Fidel!

01:04:40.001 --> 01:04:42.120
Big round of applause!

01:04:42.764 --> 01:04:44.027
