Starring real musicians as protagonists, We Still Have the Deep Black Night pulsates an unparalleled musical intensity rarely seen in contemporary Brazilian cinema.
Karen, a trumpeter and vocalist tired of struggling for recognition with her rock band in Brasília, decides to embark on a journey following her former bandmate Artur to Berlin. Invited by Martin, a German friend, with whom they form an unpredictable triangle. When months later Karen finds herself back in Brasília, she is forced to confront her role in the city her grandfather helped build and reevaluate the significance of art in her life.
Through compelling performances and evocative storytelling, this film offers a captivating exploration of ambition, belonging, artistic expression, and the enduring power of music.

We Still Have the Deep Black
Night
00:03:35.006 --> 00:03:37.008
This is for Grandad’s medicines.
00:03:37.134 --> 00:03:38.885
Why don’t you buy them yourself?
00:03:39.302 --> 00:03:40.971
I’m not coming home tonight.
00:04:19.926 --> 00:04:22.679
"Inner Beast show at Buraco"
00:04:25.640 --> 00:04:27.934
"36 people confirmed"
00:04:37.527 --> 00:04:38.737
Cool!
00:04:39.738 --> 00:04:42.532
You guys play like you’re
about to kill somebody!
00:04:42.908 --> 00:04:44.159
Look at this!
00:04:50.415 --> 00:04:53.001
Hey, Kaká, you have to give
the band a boost.
00:04:53.126 --> 00:04:55.003
You used to do more gigs!
00:05:01.885 --> 00:05:03.678
It wasn’t so crowded, was it?
00:05:05.138 --> 00:05:07.557
There were 21 witnesses
at the concert.
00:05:09.559 --> 00:05:10.936
You counted!
00:05:12.354 --> 00:05:14.022
I didn’t have to.
00:05:14.523 --> 00:05:18.193
Only 21 people in Brasilia
are into real rock music.
00:05:21.112 --> 00:05:23.198
And when there’s no one left?
00:05:25.367 --> 00:05:26.952
What will happen?
00:05:28.954 --> 00:05:30.205
I’ll kill myself.
00:05:42.175 --> 00:05:44.261
The concert is on Thursday,
right?
00:05:44.761 --> 00:05:45.762
Thursday we’ll be there.
00:05:45.887 --> 00:05:47.597
– I wouldn’t miss it!
– Cool.
00:05:47.931 --> 00:05:50.016
Oh, I can’t on Thursday.
00:05:50.934 --> 00:05:53.186
I have to work all night.
00:05:53.311 --> 00:05:55.814
Is it the Pensions Reform
handbook?
00:05:55.939 --> 00:05:57.399
Shit...
00:06:38.565 --> 00:06:40.191
What's up guys?
00:06:42.027 --> 00:06:45.071
This is Martin, the German
friend
I’d told you about.
00:06:46.072 --> 00:06:47.782
He arrived today.
00:06:51.745 --> 00:06:54.205
The day will break...
00:06:58.877 --> 00:07:01.880
I will still live!
00:07:36.623 --> 00:07:39.084
The way I wanted...
00:07:40.210 --> 00:07:42.879
As you said...
00:07:43.963 --> 00:07:46.508
I should be.
00:07:48.885 --> 00:07:51.554
The day will break...
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:53.473
and I'm here with you,
00:07:53.598 --> 00:07:56.518
as I always wanted...
00:07:56.643 --> 00:08:01.231
The city can't see
our scar.
00:08:04.693 --> 00:08:08.113
– Hold out!
– Give up!
00:08:08.238 --> 00:08:11.449
– Hold out!
– Give up!
00:08:11.950 --> 00:08:15.078
– Hold out!
– Give up!
00:08:15.578 --> 00:08:18.790
Hold out!
00:08:59.706 --> 00:09:00.623
Wow!
00:09:00.749 --> 00:09:02.834
Awesome, guys!
00:09:02.959 --> 00:09:04.002
So, let’s play another one?
00:09:04.127 --> 00:09:06.296
– Let's do it!
– Let's play "Satellite"!
00:09:06.713 --> 00:09:08.423
The studio is all yours.
00:09:08.548 --> 00:09:10.717
No need, it’s OK for today.
00:09:10.842 --> 00:09:12.051
Gee, man.
00:09:15.346 --> 00:09:17.724
Lara, can you drop me off
at the bus station?
00:09:17.849 --> 00:09:20.226
Oh, Kaká, come have
a drink with us!
00:09:20.351 --> 00:09:20.810
– Right?
– Yeah.
00:09:20.935 --> 00:09:21.728
– Right?
– Yeah.
00:09:21.853 --> 00:09:23.730
Stay over at my place tonight.
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:29.110
Artur, why don’t you and Karen
move in together already?
00:09:29.235 --> 00:09:32.447
Think of the time she wastes
commuting
from Gama to Brasilia everyday.
00:09:32.572 --> 00:09:34.616
If she lived here in the city
we could rehearse more!
00:09:34.741 --> 00:09:36.367
Some days it takes three hours.
00:09:36.493 --> 00:09:37.702
It's a pain!
00:09:57.597 --> 00:09:58.556
Oh, Cicero:
00:09:58.681 --> 00:10:02.018
Is it true you're going to play
in a Hives cover band?
00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:05.897
– Oh no, is that for real?
– Hivees? What the fuck is
Hivees?
00:10:06.022 --> 00:10:08.817
A friend formed a band,
he needed a drummer.
00:10:08.942 --> 00:10:11.903
Here, Larica, take a look...
00:10:12.445 --> 00:10:13.571
The Hives!
00:10:13.947 --> 00:10:16.783
Fuck, that band in suits
and ties, man!
00:10:16.908 --> 00:10:19.077
It’s like a tribute to the
2000s.
00:10:19.202 --> 00:10:21.329
It’s mainly The Hives.
In suits and ties...
00:10:21.454 --> 00:10:23.832
– What the fuck, Cicero!
– That’s so lame, man!
00:10:23.957 --> 00:10:26.501
Fuck it, man! I want to play!
00:10:26.626 --> 00:10:29.087
Our band is in a coma,
you know?
00:10:29.212 --> 00:10:32.257
It’s a miracle we’re playing
a gig next Thursday!
00:10:32.382 --> 00:10:33.466
And there’s something else:
00:10:35.051 --> 00:10:38.054
There are covers for all kinds
of bands
here, except for the Hives.
00:10:38.179 --> 00:10:39.848
Gee, man!
00:10:41.349 --> 00:10:43.226
Guys, Cicero is right.
00:10:43.893 --> 00:10:45.979
About playing the Hives?
00:10:46.521 --> 00:10:48.147
We’re too laid-back about the
band.
00:10:48.273 --> 00:10:49.858
That’s what I’ve been trying to
say!
00:10:49.983 --> 00:10:54.153
So you'll go straight from your
shitty
day job to your shitty cover band...
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:56.489
You can just keep your suit on!
00:10:56.948 --> 00:10:59.951
We need to give our band a push!
We have to invest in it.
00:11:00.076 --> 00:11:01.411
It’s easy for you to say.
00:11:01.536 --> 00:11:04.122
You make $12,000 a month
from your job at the Senate!
00:11:04.247 --> 00:11:06.457
The man is the Hives!
00:11:47.290 --> 00:11:51.377
Stop talking shit and let the
German hear the music.
00:11:52.253 --> 00:11:54.130
The trumpet will start now.
00:13:21.009 --> 00:13:23.803
How long is the German staying?
00:13:25.972 --> 00:13:28.516
He wants to see us play.
00:13:33.021 --> 00:13:34.814
He saw today’s rehearsal.
00:13:39.193 --> 00:13:40.862
It’s the concert that counts!
00:13:40.987 --> 00:13:42.447
What a drag!
00:13:43.239 --> 00:13:44.866
Who is it, damn it?
00:13:47.869 --> 00:13:48.953
Good evening, how
can I help you?
00:13:49.078 --> 00:13:51.831
Look at him: he's so drunk, he
can't even stand up straight!
00:13:51.956 --> 00:13:53.958
Oh, what a drag...
00:13:54.083 --> 00:13:56.836
Dude, will it be like this
every week?
00:13:56.961 --> 00:13:57.545
Fuck!
00:13:57.670 --> 00:14:00.173
Do you really need to call the
police every time?
00:14:00.298 --> 00:14:02.008
They have work to do, man!
00:14:02.508 --> 00:14:05.303
Every day the stink of marijuana
comes from here.
00:14:05.428 --> 00:14:06.679
– Every day!
– Marijuana!?
00:14:06.804 --> 00:14:08.890
What marijuana!?
00:14:09.307 --> 00:14:11.684
Have you seen any marijuana
in my residence, Larica?
00:14:18.316 --> 00:14:19.150
Listen...
00:14:19.275 --> 00:14:20.234
Take it easy!
00:14:20.359 --> 00:14:21.986
I'm cool, I'm cool...
00:14:22.111 --> 00:14:23.738
There are honest people
in this building...
00:14:23.863 --> 00:14:26.032
…hard-working people who
get up early to work!
00:14:26.157 --> 00:14:26.991
We're not like you, you bum!
00:14:27.116 --> 00:14:29.160
What!? Go to work?
00:14:29.494 --> 00:14:30.745
I know your kind.
00:14:30.870 --> 00:14:32.038
You’re a sucker!
00:14:32.705 --> 00:14:33.790
– You’re a sucker!
– You're a junkie!
00:14:33.915 --> 00:14:37.418
This is your wife’s junk!
00:14:40.171 --> 00:14:41.756
Now he’s pulled his cock out!
00:14:45.927 --> 00:14:47.428
Tell me, kids:
00:14:48.054 --> 00:14:50.640
Who the hell are you?
00:14:52.433 --> 00:14:53.768
Well, Mr. Inspector...
00:14:53.893 --> 00:14:58.439
I’m a radio journalist, I have a
studio in block 205...
00:14:58.815 --> 00:14:59.732
Hmm...
00:14:59.857 --> 00:15:02.568
Cicero, sleeping there,
works at the Senate!
00:15:02.693 --> 00:15:04.987
Artur is a journalist...
00:15:05.113 --> 00:15:06.447
Karen is a...
00:15:06.864 --> 00:15:07.949
Designer, right, Karen?
00:15:08.074 --> 00:15:09.367
And Lara...
00:15:09.492 --> 00:15:10.952
Cut the crap, Alex.
00:15:12.537 --> 00:15:14.247
We’re musicians, man.
00:15:14.372 --> 00:15:16.165
Fuck, musicians!?
00:15:16.290 --> 00:15:18.292
Don’t the military police have
anything else to do!?
00:15:18.417 --> 00:15:21.921
They only bring us stoners
and musicians!
00:15:22.046 --> 00:15:23.756
There’s no criminals around, eh?
00:15:26.968 --> 00:15:29.428
So you are musicians...
What do you play?
00:15:29.554 --> 00:15:30.304
Coldplay?
00:15:30.429 --> 00:15:32.265
I refuse to play covers!
00:15:35.434 --> 00:15:37.436
Their music, Mr. Inspector...
00:15:38.146 --> 00:15:40.148
It's more...
00:15:40.982 --> 00:15:42.859
Psychedelic punk rock, man.
00:15:42.984 --> 00:15:44.318
With a trumpet.
00:15:44.443 --> 00:15:48.739
Like Sex Pistols, Pink Floyd
and Miles Davis?
00:15:48.865 --> 00:15:50.366
And does it work?
00:15:53.077 --> 00:15:54.787
On Thursday we’re
playing at Buraco.
00:15:54.912 --> 00:15:55.830
Why don’t you come by?
00:15:55.955 --> 00:15:58.040
What do you play?
The guitar?
00:15:58.666 --> 00:15:59.959
I play the bass.
00:16:00.376 --> 00:16:02.170
Cicero is the drummer.
00:16:04.005 --> 00:16:05.715
And you, honey?
00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:07.633
Are you the band’s groupie?
00:16:09.177 --> 00:16:10.887
I’m Miles Davis.
00:16:14.599 --> 00:16:15.308
Yeah...
00:16:15.433 --> 00:16:17.268
I had a band too.
00:16:18.394 --> 00:16:23.399
A punk band. In the
eighties, the nineties...
00:16:25.568 --> 00:16:26.777
You, in the bathrobe:
00:16:26.903 --> 00:16:28.487
Do you remember when the
shopping street in...
00:16:28.613 --> 00:16:30.323
South 109 had a row of bars,
right next to each other...
00:16:30.448 --> 00:16:34.368
before Brasilia became this
shitty dormitory town?
00:16:34.702 --> 00:16:35.453
Do you?
00:16:36.245 --> 00:16:38.873
We started the night at the
Arabeske.
00:16:38.998 --> 00:16:41.751
It closed around 1AM;
Estação bar too.
00:16:42.251 --> 00:16:46.505
Then we went to Beirute bar
and were there until 3AM.
00:16:46.631 --> 00:16:49.842
Then Beirute closed. And
what did we do next?
00:16:52.553 --> 00:16:53.846
You went...
00:16:54.180 --> 00:16:55.014
Home?
00:16:55.640 --> 00:16:57.975
Luiz’ Bar, you moron!
00:16:58.100 --> 00:17:03.105
How many times have I seen the
sun come up from Luiz'...
00:17:04.148 --> 00:17:05.900
Where have they all gone...
00:17:06.025 --> 00:17:08.486
the folks who drank until
the sun came up?
00:17:14.492 --> 00:17:16.452
"Inner Beast show at Buraco"
00:17:16.577 --> 00:17:17.536
"42 people confirmed"
00:17:20.498 --> 00:17:22.124
The boss is coming!
00:17:24.919 --> 00:17:27.129
The sun’s blinding,
right, Karen?
00:17:27.922 --> 00:17:29.840
Listen, tomorrow night...
00:17:29.966 --> 00:17:31.884
you’ll be helping the
guys finish the...
00:17:32.009 --> 00:17:33.761
Pensions Reform handbook. Ok?
00:17:33.886 --> 00:17:35.930
We’ll discuss some overtime pay
later.
00:17:40.851 --> 00:17:42.436
Wait, wait, wait!
00:17:42.937 --> 00:17:46.107
I’m playing a concert tomorrow.
I’d told you.
00:17:46.232 --> 00:17:48.693
Get someone to replace
you! Whatever!
00:17:49.652 --> 00:17:51.988
Wait, I am playing the concert.
00:17:53.531 --> 00:17:57.702
There are plenty of people ready
to take your job, right?
00:17:59.453 --> 00:18:00.746
And there are plenty of...
00:18:01.163 --> 00:18:04.417
Bosses lining their pockets with
shifty public contract money.
00:18:05.376 --> 00:18:07.461
There's a lot of it around here.
00:18:10.214 --> 00:18:13.593
My father woke me up today
throwing that at my face!
00:18:17.013 --> 00:18:19.640
"Find your civil service
examination"
00:19:15.363 --> 00:19:16.822
Stop, stop, I fucked up!
00:19:16.947 --> 00:19:18.491
Shit! Damn, Lara!
00:19:18.616 --> 00:19:20.076
Fuck you!
00:19:20.201 --> 00:19:21.202
Let's go!
00:19:33.005 --> 00:19:33.506
Fuck, dude!
00:19:33.631 --> 00:19:36.384
If it goes on like this, we’d
better
not even show up at the gig!
00:19:46.936 --> 00:19:48.771
Record it, Alex!
00:20:18.342 --> 00:20:21.053
I’m not in this for fun!
00:20:21.679 --> 00:20:22.847
We will play this concert.
00:20:22.972 --> 00:20:24.807
So do it properly!
00:20:24.932 --> 00:20:29.228
You book a gig out of nowhere,
there are barely 40
confirmations!
00:20:33.774 --> 00:20:38.279
Even if shit rains down from
the sky,
we’ll get 150 people in that bar!
00:20:42.032 --> 00:20:42.992
Dude...
00:20:43.117 --> 00:20:46.495
Men really take that “alpha
male”
shit seriously!
00:21:31.165 --> 00:21:33.042
It’s hard.
00:21:33.667 --> 00:21:36.086
– It's not working.
– Is it the Law of Silence,
Julinho?
00:21:36.212 --> 00:21:39.673
You invested a lot, you had the
place acoustically isolated...
00:21:39.798 --> 00:21:42.676
– paid all those fines...
– I spent a lot of money, but...
00:21:42.801 --> 00:21:44.053
Just look at the show tonight.
00:21:44.178 --> 00:21:46.764
87 people confirmed...
00:21:46.889 --> 00:21:49.725
But only 19 showed up.
It’s hopeless.
00:21:52.770 --> 00:21:57.483
And people used to say that this
was the Brazilian rock capital.
00:21:57.608 --> 00:21:58.192
Yeah.
00:21:58.317 --> 00:21:59.235
It was once.
00:21:59.360 --> 00:22:01.070
It's history.
00:22:11.038 --> 00:22:12.998
What's with this gringo, Artur?
00:22:13.999 --> 00:22:16.168
Does he want to take
you to Berlin?
00:22:21.006 --> 00:22:23.175
There's no room
for us here, Karen.
00:22:25.970 --> 00:22:29.265
Here you have to be... cute.
00:22:30.975 --> 00:22:35.938
They jeer because we
improvise...
00:22:36.063 --> 00:22:37.898
because we experiment...
00:22:38.566 --> 00:22:40.317
because our sound is
different...
00:22:40.442 --> 00:22:42.987
They’re so fucking square here!
00:22:43.571 --> 00:22:45.281
And what about rock here?
00:22:47.199 --> 00:22:48.200
Yeah!
00:22:49.201 --> 00:22:50.744
Rock is dying!
00:22:50.869 --> 00:22:53.289
Oh, come on, Artur!
Rock is dead, man.
00:22:53.914 --> 00:22:55.499
Here, in Berlin...
00:22:56.625 --> 00:22:59.211
It’s like grandma’s
bedtime stories now.
00:23:00.212 --> 00:23:03.966
Imagine how many
grannies, Julinho...
00:23:04.884 --> 00:23:08.095
were into group sex
with a punk band!
00:23:09.763 --> 00:23:11.432
Or shot up...
00:23:11.765 --> 00:23:13.142
with Iggy Pop!
00:23:24.445 --> 00:23:26.572
Stop playing the tourist, Artur!
00:23:27.156 --> 00:23:28.657
Berlin is over, okay?
00:23:31.243 --> 00:23:32.828
Brasilia is what we have.
00:23:33.203 --> 00:23:35.789
I quit my job yesterday.
00:23:35.914 --> 00:23:39.168
I’ve burnt all my bridges in
this town as a journalist.
00:23:39.918 --> 00:23:41.211
All of them!
00:23:41.962 --> 00:23:43.297
And what's left?
00:23:44.131 --> 00:23:45.591
The music!
00:23:45.966 --> 00:23:47.384
But look around you.
00:23:48.010 --> 00:23:49.136
Look.
00:23:50.262 --> 00:23:51.513
It’s over!
00:24:42.731 --> 00:24:44.775
Aren’t you going to work today?
00:24:45.192 --> 00:24:46.735
I have a concert tonight.
00:24:47.903 --> 00:24:48.904
You think you’re like those...
00:24:49.029 --> 00:24:51.699
city playboys you call
your friends...
00:24:51.824 --> 00:24:55.285
You disappear, go bumming
around,
you come home when it suits you...
00:24:56.495 --> 00:25:01.041
Do you know how much time
I spend on this old shitbag?
00:25:01.166 --> 00:25:02.126
I know how much I pay for...
00:25:02.251 --> 00:25:03.877
grandad's insurance
and his medicines.
00:25:04.002 --> 00:25:05.170
That’s nothing!
00:25:05.546 --> 00:25:07.423
Instead of wasting money
on your shitty band,
00:25:07.548 --> 00:25:08.674
on your useless pipedream,
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:10.592
you should be bringing
money home!
00:25:13.053 --> 00:25:15.139
– It’s not a pipedream.
– Oh, no!?
00:25:15.264 --> 00:25:16.890
Do you make any money
with this band?
00:25:17.015 --> 00:25:18.350
Or are you like your
grandfather’s friends,
00:25:18.475 --> 00:25:21.478
who played for beers and
took off when he got sick?
00:25:21.603 --> 00:25:24.148
Are you going to spend your
life doing odd jobs?
00:25:24.273 --> 00:25:25.941
Why don’t you get a job in the
government like everyone else?
00:25:26.066 --> 00:25:26.817
Let me go!
00:25:43.917 --> 00:25:46.420
People on the straight line...
00:25:47.755 --> 00:25:50.591
Speeding, nothing comes close...
00:25:51.592 --> 00:25:55.220
No straying off to byways.
00:25:58.849 --> 00:26:01.226
I wander along the path...
00:26:02.728 --> 00:26:04.646
Run over...
00:26:04.772 --> 00:26:07.316
No detours.
00:26:09.860 --> 00:26:13.405
And all that life writhing
on the margins.
00:27:00.911 --> 00:27:02.663
Insists still!
00:27:03.330 --> 00:27:04.790
The straight line...
00:27:05.249 --> 00:27:07.000
and nothing to say.
00:27:11.004 --> 00:27:13.590
Boredom and a dry mouth.
00:27:14.675 --> 00:27:17.094
Boredom and a dry mouth.
00:27:18.303 --> 00:27:19.638
Boredom!
00:27:21.932 --> 00:27:24.852
Shove it in...
And nothing else!
00:27:25.811 --> 00:27:27.646
The gesture of loathing...
00:27:27.771 --> 00:27:29.439
The taste! The taste!
00:27:29.565 --> 00:27:31.483
The taste! The taste!
00:27:31.608 --> 00:27:34.444
The taste! The taste!
The taste!
00:27:37.239 --> 00:27:41.285
Insists blindly and
will not see...
00:27:44.788 --> 00:27:48.834
Red earth!
00:27:51.962 --> 00:27:55.966
Open!
00:27:59.595 --> 00:28:03.432
Wounded!
00:28:06.977 --> 00:28:10.022
Me!
00:29:32.187 --> 00:29:33.772
Fucking awesome!
00:29:34.356 --> 00:29:36.441
Fucking brilliant!
00:31:36.019 --> 00:31:38.688
No. I have to go back to work.
00:31:41.024 --> 00:31:43.693
Does anyone work at the
Senate on a Friday, Cicero?
00:31:47.489 --> 00:31:51.535
Guys, I've been thinking...
We need one more singer.
00:31:52.452 --> 00:31:55.956
We have a lot of instrumental
songs, people don't like it.
00:31:57.040 --> 00:31:58.083
Yeah, and...
00:31:59.292 --> 00:32:01.461
The name of the band
is too arty.
00:32:01.586 --> 00:32:04.005
And the lyrics too. I don't
know.
00:32:07.676 --> 00:32:08.593
Oh, yeah?
00:32:10.053 --> 00:32:12.222
Why don't you choose
a cute name for us?
00:32:12.347 --> 00:32:15.433
Artur, we must invest in the
band.
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:18.645
I could use some of my
salary at the Senate…
00:32:18.770 --> 00:32:20.772
– We can hire a producer.
– Wow, man!
00:32:20.897 --> 00:32:24.693
It’s even better if it's your...
dirty money!
00:32:25.193 --> 00:32:27.654
Then we can change the
band’s name to...
00:32:27.779 --> 00:32:29.406
The Scum’s Asslickers!
00:32:29.531 --> 00:32:31.324
So what’s your plan?
00:32:33.034 --> 00:32:36.163
You have a plan, don't you?
Go on, tell us.
00:32:44.171 --> 00:32:47.966
I’m going to Berlin,
guys. To stay.
00:32:50.010 --> 00:32:52.137
You’re such an asshole, man.
00:32:55.974 --> 00:32:58.393
So come with me!
00:33:09.488 --> 00:33:10.864
No.
00:34:08.421 --> 00:34:10.757
What happened to
the other 16?
00:34:12.092 --> 00:34:15.845
Didn’t you say there were 21
rock fans in Brasilia?
00:34:16.429 --> 00:34:19.182
If there were five people
at the concert...
00:34:19.849 --> 00:34:21.935
what happened to the other 16?
00:34:24.062 --> 00:34:25.814
Oh, man...
00:34:26.773 --> 00:34:29.276
Who knows. They must have
been in church!
00:34:30.652 --> 00:34:32.612
Or at home,
drooling over Internet,
00:34:32.737 --> 00:34:34.948
wanking for streaming series.
00:34:35.073 --> 00:34:39.035
Kids! People are so
into having kids.
00:34:39.411 --> 00:34:41.288
It’s like the middle ages, man.
00:34:50.422 --> 00:34:52.215
Karen, tell me something:
00:34:55.218 --> 00:34:58.096
Is it true that the agency
paid you in cash?
00:34:59.681 --> 00:35:02.183
– Shit, man...
– Fuck.
00:35:03.435 --> 00:35:05.478
I came here for the hush money.
00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:11.401
But it’s over now, I don’t want
any
dodgy freelance jobs anymore.
00:35:12.068 --> 00:35:15.071
This money here stinks.
00:35:15.196 --> 00:35:17.991
And what will you live on
now, Kaká?
00:35:18.366 --> 00:35:21.661
This dough should keep me
going for a while.
00:35:23.163 --> 00:35:25.832
But it’s music I want
to be doing.
00:35:27.250 --> 00:35:28.918
It’s all wrong.
00:36:19.094 --> 00:36:21.221
I know your band.
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:23.056
It’s the one with the...
00:36:23.181 --> 00:36:24.766
little horn, right?
00:36:31.147 --> 00:36:33.441
Hey, guys, don't lose heart.
00:36:34.067 --> 00:36:36.152
You’ll find someone,
I'm sure you will.
00:36:36.277 --> 00:36:40.156
You can have the studio for two
days if you want, for free,
00:36:40.281 --> 00:36:42.283
so you can schedule more
auditions.
00:36:45.370 --> 00:36:48.790
Well, I don't know, the
old guy was OK.
00:36:49.416 --> 00:36:51.751
The bald guy who looks
like an accountant!?
00:36:51.876 --> 00:36:54.379
You can call him to do your
tax returns, man!
00:36:57.841 --> 00:36:59.509
Oh, Larica!
00:37:01.928 --> 00:37:03.888
Hey, what happened?
00:37:05.515 --> 00:37:07.308
I’ll miss this.
00:37:08.309 --> 00:37:09.811
What do you mean?
00:37:11.980 --> 00:37:13.231
It's over.
00:37:15.358 --> 00:37:17.235
I can't stand it anymore.
00:37:44.804 --> 00:37:46.723
Oh, you want to make
the logo bigger?
00:37:46.848 --> 00:37:48.641
I won’t make the logo bigger.
00:37:49.434 --> 00:37:50.894
The file's right in front of
you.
00:37:51.019 --> 00:37:54.606
Compare the size of the title
with
the size of the logo.
00:37:54.731 --> 00:37:56.816
Did you do it? Do you want
it bigger than that?
00:37:56.941 --> 00:38:00.403
Say it! You want the logo to be
as big as the title, right?
00:38:01.362 --> 00:38:03.448
I’ve changed it four times
already! You know that,
00:38:03.573 --> 00:38:04.491
we had already settled this.
00:38:04.616 --> 00:38:08.161
Why did you have to take it
to your fucking partner?
00:38:09.078 --> 00:38:12.874
I’m screaming because you don’t
know what you want!
00:38:13.875 --> 00:38:16.044
This fucking job never ends!
00:38:17.003 --> 00:38:19.797
What is it? I’m fucking
working here!
00:38:47.158 --> 00:38:54.040
I haven’t heard you...
play anymore...
00:39:00.004 --> 00:39:04.133
Don’t give up the trumpet...
00:39:04.968 --> 00:39:06.928
Never.
00:40:22.545 --> 00:40:24.380
This money is to take
care of grandad.
00:40:24.505 --> 00:40:26.591
It’s enough for six months.
00:40:29.552 --> 00:40:30.845
Are you leaving?
00:40:33.097 --> 00:40:34.932
I’ve left some boxes in my room.
00:40:37.018 --> 00:40:38.519
There are clothes, books...
00:40:38.645 --> 00:40:40.605
You can donate them if
you know someone.
00:40:40.730 --> 00:40:42.357
Are you moving to the city?
00:41:51.300 --> 00:41:52.176
Yes?
00:41:52.552 --> 00:41:55.179
Hey, Artur, how’s it going?
00:41:55.596 --> 00:41:57.390
How did you find me here?
00:41:58.307 --> 00:42:01.477
This is a cool apartment.
Whose is it?
00:42:03.771 --> 00:42:07.692
A friend is out of town and let
me
stay here. I'm paying his rent.
00:42:09.318 --> 00:42:12.071
How long will you stay?
00:42:14.657 --> 00:42:17.744
If you’re staying long, you’ll
have
to find something to do.
00:42:18.077 --> 00:42:19.287
Oh, man...
00:42:20.121 --> 00:42:24.083
Who says I want to stay? It’s
too
cold here, are you crazy?
00:42:24.584 --> 00:42:28.504
Yeah, but your coat isn’t warm
enough even for Gama!
00:42:33.176 --> 00:42:34.260
So...
00:42:34.802 --> 00:42:36.846
Are you playing in a band?
00:42:38.556 --> 00:42:40.016
I’m studying German.
00:42:41.267 --> 00:42:43.686
I’ll already be gone when
you wake up.
00:43:16.636 --> 00:43:19.388
Silence! Quiet now!
00:43:19.764 --> 00:43:21.641
Are you fucking nuts?
00:43:21.766 --> 00:43:23.309
I'll call the police!
00:44:22.326 --> 00:44:24.954
"24 Freienwalder Street,
apartment 41"
00:44:25.079 --> 00:44:26.330
"Martin"
00:45:14.795 --> 00:45:17.089
"Language School"
00:46:14.146 --> 00:46:16.857
Oh man, this city is so damn
cold.
00:46:16.983 --> 00:46:18.651
Bloody hell!
00:47:06.198 --> 00:47:07.992
Oh, am I seeing right?
00:47:08.492 --> 00:47:09.410
Martin!
00:47:09.785 --> 00:47:10.911
You worn out lion!
00:47:11.037 --> 00:47:13.831
You haven't been down here in
hell for a while. How are you?
00:47:14.623 --> 00:47:18.002
Man, I didn’t want to come, but
she's going nuts, her ex is
here!
00:47:23.507 --> 00:47:26.552
You see, I’d totally forgotten
about this. This is Berlin.
00:47:27.011 --> 00:47:30.514
But there are still people who
insist on speaking German.
00:47:32.266 --> 00:47:33.434
What are you having?
00:47:41.359 --> 00:47:43.652
Ah, that's it with my
Berlin, it's over!
00:47:44.403 --> 00:47:46.197
No one speaks German anymore.
00:47:46.322 --> 00:47:47.865
Only English!
00:47:48.532 --> 00:47:49.992
I tell you something:
00:47:50.117 --> 00:47:53.120
An American works in my
favorite coffee shop,
00:47:53.245 --> 00:47:56.415
she speaks only English,
not a word of German.
00:47:57.666 --> 00:47:58.959
Man, I tell you:
00:47:59.085 --> 00:48:01.462
Berlin is becoming the
new Orlando!
00:48:02.588 --> 00:48:04.298
I'll get your drinks, OK?
00:48:57.977 --> 00:48:59.603
The toilet is free.
00:49:07.153 --> 00:49:08.571
Wait a second, dude!
00:49:08.696 --> 00:49:10.197
Who is this stupid cow?
00:49:10.322 --> 00:49:12.158
It was all lies, right, Artur?
00:49:12.700 --> 00:49:14.660
Quitting your job,
the end of the band...
00:49:15.244 --> 00:49:16.328
Your course...
00:49:16.871 --> 00:49:19.206
You wanted to run away,
didn't you, asshole?
00:49:19.331 --> 00:49:22.084
I’ve left everything too,
no one knows I’m here!
00:49:33.304 --> 00:49:35.389
Piss off, you faggot!
00:50:02.416 --> 00:50:05.669
"This city has been..."
00:50:07.963 --> 00:50:10.633
"...bought up"
00:50:28.108 --> 00:50:30.527
I liked Brasilia in the
beginning...
00:50:32.196 --> 00:50:34.615
when I moved there with my
parents...
00:50:37.326 --> 00:50:39.453
To be a kid there is...
00:50:40.788 --> 00:50:42.081
…a privilege.
00:50:43.582 --> 00:50:45.542
You mean in the city, right?
00:50:47.211 --> 00:50:49.046
Privilege is the right word.
00:50:51.590 --> 00:50:54.093
I won't have a sociological
discussion with you now.
00:50:54.426 --> 00:50:55.511
Don’t be such an asshole, man.
00:50:55.886 --> 00:50:58.556
So what the hell are you
doing here, damn it?
00:51:01.016 --> 00:51:02.434
What about the music, man?
00:51:02.893 --> 00:51:05.479
– Where’s your guitar?
– I sold my guitar!
00:51:06.605 --> 00:51:08.565
I’m going back to Brasilia.
00:51:08.691 --> 00:51:11.568
My father’s found me a job in
the
marketing division of a hospital...
00:51:11.694 --> 00:51:13.153
The money is good...
00:51:15.197 --> 00:51:17.157
That’s not you, Artur.
00:51:26.250 --> 00:51:28.377
From now on, it is.
00:51:33.299 --> 00:51:35.467
I can't believe this, man!
00:51:42.600 --> 00:51:45.769
You should have come with
me before, damn it!
00:53:24.243 --> 00:53:26.537
I have to talk to you, man.
00:57:28.654 --> 00:57:30.614
Come to the bathroom with me!
00:57:31.990 --> 00:57:35.661
What are you going to do out
there
that you can’t do here?
00:58:09.277 --> 00:58:11.905
Do you see this little fold
here?
00:58:12.989 --> 00:58:14.908
I have to bite in there.
01:00:15.695 --> 01:00:22.452
"The rent runs out on Dec. 1st.
Leave the keys in the letterbox"
01:09:54.315 --> 01:09:56.484
Acker 169! That's it.
01:09:59.070 --> 01:10:00.863
It's a shame.
01:16:14.487 --> 01:16:18.699
A pasty, a sugar cane juice
and a cheese bun, please.
01:16:25.164 --> 01:16:27.416
This card’s expired.
01:17:03.953 --> 01:17:04.829
Hi.
01:17:06.205 --> 01:17:09.291
I need to speak to Artur, at
505.
01:17:09.416 --> 01:17:13.129
Artur? There’s no one
called Artur here.
01:17:28.018 --> 01:17:29.728
It's the drought, right?
01:17:32.106 --> 01:17:34.191
I’ve heard it’s the worst ever.
01:17:35.818 --> 01:17:38.445
Yesterday, air humidity
was only 8%.
01:17:39.113 --> 01:17:41.323
Do you have any toilet paper,
bro?
01:19:26.178 --> 01:19:27.096
Kaká!
01:19:27.554 --> 01:19:28.639
Larica!
01:19:29.556 --> 01:19:31.308
Hey, what's up!?
01:19:31.433 --> 01:19:32.977
– What's up?
– Where have you been?
01:19:33.102 --> 01:19:35.187
Are you still living out in
Gama?
01:19:35.312 --> 01:19:38.315
– I'm in Berlin.
– Berlin? What do you mean?
01:19:38.440 --> 01:19:40.567
So tell me, Larica!
How are things?
01:19:40.901 --> 01:19:43.487
Oh, I’m good. This is Julia,
my girlfriend.
01:19:43.612 --> 01:19:45.364
– Nice to meet you.
– Nice to meet you.
01:19:46.198 --> 01:19:48.409
What else? Are you playing?
01:19:48.534 --> 01:19:50.327
No, not really. I...
01:19:50.703 --> 01:19:52.246
I was about to tell you...
01:19:52.579 --> 01:19:55.040
I did an examination for the...
01:19:55.165 --> 01:19:57.001
Ministry of Tourism and...
01:19:57.126 --> 01:19:59.545
I’m working there now.
01:20:01.547 --> 01:20:02.256
Shit.
01:20:03.215 --> 01:20:04.842
I didn’t know that you
were into that.
01:20:04.967 --> 01:20:08.303
Well... And Julia’s just passed
two
selections for the civil service!
01:20:10.139 --> 01:20:12.141
Wow... Why two!?
01:20:12.891 --> 01:20:13.726
It's true.
01:20:21.275 --> 01:20:22.985
Where is your baggage?
01:20:25.320 --> 01:20:26.655
It got lost.
01:20:28.449 --> 01:20:30.826
Are you still working at
the Senate, Cicero?
01:20:33.746 --> 01:20:36.206
Lara’s joined the civil service.
01:20:40.127 --> 01:20:44.339
None of us is still playing
music.
Everyone’s given up.
01:20:45.716 --> 01:20:47.259
It sucks.
01:20:49.303 --> 01:20:51.472
Why have you
come back, Karen?
01:21:37.768 --> 01:21:39.019
So Kaká...
01:21:39.686 --> 01:21:42.022
Did you like their music?
01:21:42.147 --> 01:21:44.400
Yeah, they’re cool.
01:21:44.733 --> 01:21:48.987
I think you’d love to
play with these guys.
01:21:50.531 --> 01:21:52.991
They don’t need a little horn.
01:21:57.996 --> 01:22:00.207
– Take a look at this, Alex.
– What is it?
01:22:00.332 --> 01:22:03.544
It’s a concert Martin and I
played in Istanbul.
01:22:03.669 --> 01:22:06.171
Wow, were you in Istanbul?
01:22:19.726 --> 01:22:22.187
Kaká, that’s awesome!
01:22:24.022 --> 01:22:27.192
Man, I’d like to play that
kind of sound here.
01:22:27.693 --> 01:22:33.323
Would Julinho pay for their
tickets
to come over to play at Buraco?
01:22:40.164 --> 01:22:42.624
It's so cool!
01:22:44.585 --> 01:22:48.005
But Buraco closed down last
week.
01:22:49.464 --> 01:22:51.091
There are no bars like
that anymore.
01:22:51.216 --> 01:22:54.720
There’s only a couple of bars
left,
but they only want cover bands.
01:22:57.097 --> 01:22:59.224
The whole thing sucks.
01:23:00.476 --> 01:23:02.561
The neighbors called the
police...
01:23:02.895 --> 01:23:07.649
If two people just went out for
a smoke
and a chat, they’d call the police.
01:23:08.275 --> 01:23:10.194
That’s how ridiculous it’s got.
01:23:11.236 --> 01:23:13.155
The other day they arrested
three kids...
01:23:13.280 --> 01:23:15.490
because they were playing
acoustic guitar outdoors.
01:23:15.616 --> 01:23:17.034
Didn’t you hear about that?
01:23:19.495 --> 01:23:23.665
After curfew, everyone has to go
home and be quiet. Is that it?
01:23:23.999 --> 01:23:28.253
It’s worse than that. They
were arrested at 8PM!
01:23:28.378 --> 01:23:30.005
It's ludicrous, man.
01:23:34.009 --> 01:23:35.969
Shit, the air is so fucking dry.
01:23:38.555 --> 01:23:41.934
Have you seen Artur lately?
01:23:45.187 --> 01:23:48.982
Where are you living? I went
to your old apartment.
01:23:49.399 --> 01:23:51.944
The old apartment is
being refurbished.
01:23:55.989 --> 01:23:59.868
And your job, Artur?
Are you enjoying it?
01:24:03.664 --> 01:24:07.084
Work isn’t something to
be enjoyed, Karen.
01:24:07.834 --> 01:24:10.462
I’m past this phase.
01:24:12.422 --> 01:24:15.259
Now I don’t work much and
make good money.
01:24:15.634 --> 01:24:17.594
This is real life, get it?
01:24:18.637 --> 01:24:19.596
Man...
01:24:20.472 --> 01:24:22.933
How old do you think
you are, Artur?
01:24:24.142 --> 01:24:27.646
It’s one thing to say that when
you’re
40, after trying and making lots of...
01:24:27.771 --> 01:24:31.108
mistakes in life, trying
again...
01:24:31.733 --> 01:24:32.943
Okay.
01:24:33.360 --> 01:24:35.612
But at 27!?
01:24:38.949 --> 01:24:42.536
Do you remember how you ended
your farewell note in Berlin?
01:24:43.370 --> 01:24:46.665
Do you? I remember it.
01:24:48.000 --> 01:24:50.377
And Martin too.
01:24:54.631 --> 01:24:58.760
"Playing with you two made my
farewell even more bitter".
01:25:01.805 --> 01:25:04.224
Bitter, man!?
01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:09.938
That night with you and Martin
was...
01:25:11.064 --> 01:25:15.027
That was the most sublime night
I’ve
ever had in my whole fucking life!
01:26:05.369 --> 01:26:07.454
Where are your keys?
01:26:09.623 --> 01:26:11.458
In Germany.
01:26:25.055 --> 01:26:28.016
Do you remember those
boxes you'd left here?
01:26:28.141 --> 01:26:30.185
They're in your bedroom.
01:26:30.602 --> 01:26:32.771
There’s lots of nice stuff
there.
01:26:36.608 --> 01:26:39.319
No calls, never sent any news…
01:26:39.444 --> 01:26:41.822
Do you think it’s easy for me?
01:26:45.909 --> 01:26:48.537
The money’s gone,
isn’t it, mom?
01:26:53.834 --> 01:26:55.836
Oh, wait!
01:27:01.049 --> 01:27:03.719
He wants you to have this
picture.
01:27:10.058 --> 01:27:13.019
Don't believe them!
01:27:13.145 --> 01:27:16.231
Don't believe them!
01:27:16.356 --> 01:27:19.484
Don't believe them!
01:27:19.609 --> 01:27:20.819
Don't!
01:27:22.946 --> 01:27:25.282
Hunt in the dark,
hunt in the dark...
01:27:25.407 --> 01:27:27.033
Life's calling!
01:27:29.369 --> 01:27:32.747
Hunt in the dark,
life's calling!
01:28:47.948 --> 01:28:49.866
Wow!
01:28:52.953 --> 01:28:56.831
Have you any idea how amazing
your sound was just now?
01:28:57.207 --> 01:28:59.042
Iuri is your baby, did you know?
01:28:59.167 --> 01:29:01.836
He was at that gig you
played at Buraco.
01:29:01.962 --> 01:29:03.713
Somebody should have
recorded that!
01:29:03.838 --> 01:29:05.382
It was one of the best things
I’ve ever seen in Brasilia.
01:29:05.507 --> 01:29:06.174
Wasn't it?
01:29:06.842 --> 01:29:09.719
We didn’t care so much
about that then.
01:29:09.844 --> 01:29:11.972
It was art for art’s sake.
01:29:14.099 --> 01:29:16.059
Iuri, do you play in a band?
01:29:22.023 --> 01:29:25.110
So, are you going back to
Berlin?
01:29:26.987 --> 01:29:28.113
I can't.
01:29:29.322 --> 01:29:31.908
I was deported, Artur.
01:29:33.577 --> 01:29:37.330
I was touring with Martin and
some
guys. We played in many cities.
01:29:37.455 --> 01:29:38.915
Even Istanbul.
01:29:40.250 --> 01:29:42.669
On the way back, I was
stopped in Frankfurt.
01:29:59.894 --> 01:30:03.189
What will you do now?
01:30:16.077 --> 01:30:17.537
Look, my Grandad.
01:30:18.204 --> 01:30:20.582
He arrived here in 1958.
01:30:21.249 --> 01:30:23.084
He was a metal worker.
01:30:24.586 --> 01:30:27.255
He helped build all this shit.
01:30:28.632 --> 01:30:32.552
But he never had money
to live in the city.
01:30:33.011 --> 01:30:35.889
He’ll die without knowing
what it’s like.
01:30:36.514 --> 01:30:39.476
He almost never
speaks anymore.
01:30:40.977 --> 01:30:43.188
But he spoke to me.
01:30:45.023 --> 01:30:47.609
He asked me not to give up.
01:30:53.573 --> 01:30:55.116
Hey, Karen.
01:30:55.951 --> 01:30:57.494
Karen?
01:30:58.662 --> 01:31:00.580
Listen to your grandfather.
01:31:02.666 --> 01:31:06.127
He knows how this city
breaks you down.
01:31:10.340 --> 01:31:13.718
Let’s give it a go,
but away from here.
01:31:20.058 --> 01:31:23.395
I don’t know if I want to
give up Brasilia.
01:31:32.278 --> 01:31:33.988
Let's go, let's go!
01:31:40.286 --> 01:31:43.164
The city silences.
The dream thwarted.
01:31:43.289 --> 01:31:46.042
A pact...
Of silence.
01:31:46.543 --> 01:31:49.629
Listen to the empty night...
01:31:49.754 --> 01:31:52.757
Listen, clandestine soul.
01:31:52.882 --> 01:31:54.342
Wake up...
01:31:54.467 --> 01:31:58.304
Face the plan made to frame.
01:32:20.285 --> 01:32:21.619
Come on down!
01:32:21.745 --> 01:32:26.040
Invade the model man's
gesture with your flaws...
01:32:26.166 --> 01:32:28.126
Your bareness.
01:32:29.711 --> 01:32:32.422
On the open fields...
01:32:32.547 --> 01:32:35.592
Between motionless cars,
let out the howl.
01:32:36.217 --> 01:32:39.095
Rip up the paper,
free the body...
01:32:39.220 --> 01:32:42.390
from the mold,
the form...
01:32:42.515 --> 01:32:45.560
Of sleek men.
01:32:45.685 --> 01:32:48.730
Don't believe them!
01:32:48.855 --> 01:32:51.900
Don't believe them!
01:32:52.025 --> 01:32:55.111
Don't believe them!
01:32:55.236 --> 01:32:56.488
Don't!
01:32:58.656 --> 01:33:00.992
Hunt in the dark,
hunt in the dark...
01:33:01.117 --> 01:33:02.744
Life's calling!
01:33:05.121 --> 01:33:08.541
Hunt in the dark,
life's calling!
01:33:08.917 --> 01:33:12.170
Stop this fucking racket!
I’ll call the police!
01:33:12.295 --> 01:33:14.547
Calling...
01:33:14.672 --> 01:33:16.841
Calling...
01:33:17.842 --> 01:33:20.011
Calling...
01:33:21.012 --> 01:33:23.181
Calling...
01:33:24.182 --> 01:33:26.392
Calling...
