00:13 The Ladies' Paradise
00:15 [Music]
00:16 In 1943, with the men at the front, the American industries were for the first time in the hands of women.
00:23 I think it happened here too.
00:25 Of course. My grandmother sewed military uniforms.
00:28 Think that Rosie, along with her partner Jenny, managed to place in the fuselage of a plane 3,345 rivets.
00:36 Incredible.
00:38 What are rivets?
00:40 They are special nails for the plate and once they are placed, it is impossible to separate them.
00:45 It seems very romantic.
00:47 Romantic?
00:48 Can I give my opinion?
00:50 I think a woman should not have so much muscle.
00:52 It has to be delicate.
00:54 Like Miss Lydia. Look how beautiful she is. And when she smiles.
00:58 Come on, you take care of your muscles, you look like a chicken breast.
01:02 I think it's very good like that.
01:04 Yes, of course.
01:05 Well, it is my opinion. Maybe that girl will fall in love with Rocky Marciano, but if she looks for a husband, she will not find him.
01:11 Maybe she does not want to find him.
01:13 Also, I do not understand why a man would not appreciate a woman so competent who works and fights for his country.
01:17 Exactly. It is that a woman cannot have professional satisfaction at work, return home and have something to tell.
01:23 This cannot be discussed.
01:25 If you leave me too, I give up and I'm leaving.
01:28 Fortunately, there are less old men.
01:30 And luckily one of them is our boss.
01:32 Thank you, miss. They are always very kind.
01:35 I'll take this.
01:37 They are the Rosy and the Jenny of paradise, but more elegant.
01:42 See you later, girls.
01:44 See you later.
01:45 Goodbye.
01:46 Salvatore, load everything into my account.
01:48 Okay, go well.
01:50 [Sounds of the car]
02:05 Good morning.
02:07 Good morning.
02:09 Today is a beautiful day. Perfect to go to work.
02:14 Really, can I go?
02:19 Yes, you can.
02:21 And right now.
02:23 I'll go with you.
02:26 I wanted to fix the house a little earlier, but I'm going.
02:31 The possibility that I go with you has made you want to fix everything.
02:35 It's not that I would like to leave everything in order.
02:39 Or maybe you want to go to Vittorio Conti and his faithful accountant, so that they are interposed between us and our marriage.
02:47 I don't know anything.
02:51 But I know them.
02:55 Come.
02:58 Sit down.
03:02 Do you know what I was thinking?
03:05 That my business is going very well.
03:08 And this house is small.
03:11 And I also think that this city is too big for us and it's full of people who don't know where to go.
03:19 So we'll go back to Trieste.
03:25 It's not necessary.
03:28 Besides, I have a job here.
03:30 So what?
03:35 In Trieste you will be the queen of our beautiful house again.
03:39 Do you agree?
03:41 And I would continue with my business.
03:43 That's why I've already notified the owner of the house and he knows that we'll be there in less than a month.
03:49 In the meantime, you could go to the wedding.
03:51 What do you think?
03:59 I'm not going back to Trieste with you.
04:03 I don't want to leave Milan.
04:07 We both know who you don't want to leave here.
04:11 I'll tell you something. Do you see this?
04:15 Do you remember what's inside my jewelry?
04:18 If I find out that you're doing something wrong, if I find out that you've plotted a new plot against me, against your husband,
04:24 I'll drag you to Luciano Cataneo and shoot you.
04:28 Is that clear?
04:30 Yes?
04:33 Good.
04:48 If you were different, you would be the best man in the world.
05:08 You know her, don't you?
05:11 Let's see.
05:13 Of course, she's the fastest re-stitcher in North America, if I'm not mistaken.
05:16 A symbol of passion, love and dedication to work.
05:19 Practically a Venus.
05:21 I'd like to organize a day to pay tribute to all the women who work.
05:26 Can you allow a few hours of freedom that day?
05:29 I want to give you a gift.
05:31 What kind of gift?
05:33 Of non-saleable existences.
05:34 Good idea.
05:36 You see, women do three jobs in their lives.
05:39 The first at home, husband and children.
05:41 The second is for the one they pay them.
05:43 And the third is to convince people that they have the right to a life apart from their family.
05:49 Did you talk to Miss Pelegrino?
05:51 Not only that.
05:52 We'll also have to make an updated inventory of the warehouse to see what's not for sale.
05:56 We're talking about the autumn-winter season, right?
05:58 Yes, but not a limousine, but a gift.
06:01 Like bags, scarves, gloves, any accessory will do.
06:04 And talk to the cosmetics supplier.
06:07 It seems that women never have enough lipstick.
06:10 I'll get to it right away.
06:12 [footsteps]
06:15 So you haven't seen Mr. Ecclectic again?
06:18 That's what you told me, right?
06:19 Don't do anything crazy.
06:21 Let my mother calm down.
06:24 It shouldn't be easy for you.
06:26 I'm not as lucky as you to have your boyfriend around every day.
06:30 Excuse me. Do you know how Gabrielle wears her dress?
06:34 She's still working. Why?
06:36 She just called one of the designers because she wants to give hers.
06:39 Wasn't it for Thursday?
06:40 Yes. In fact, I told her to wait.
06:41 We convinced her to help Mrs. Agnes. She's trying very hard.
06:45 Yes, guys. Calm down. Gabrielle will do it.
06:47 - Are you sure? - Of course she'll do it.
06:49 Gabrielle will do what?
06:51 Finish my sister's dress.
06:53 By the way, tell me, how is it going?
06:56 It's a bit messy, but when it's time to eat, I want to do some retouching and I'll have to see it on.
07:01 Good. Do you think it will be for Thursday?
07:04 Again the same?
07:05 Sorry, my mother is nervous. This has become a state affair.
07:10 If you keep talking about it, I'll think something's wrong.
07:13 No.
07:14 What's wrong, Gabriella, is that we're worried about Nicoleta.
07:17 Because if she doesn't like the dress, imagine how she'll look.
07:20 She wants it so much.
07:22 Are you saying that she doesn't know how to take measures?
07:24 No, no. It's not about that. It's more about how fast she is.
07:27 Yes, of course. The gut grows and it won't wait for you.
07:29 When she's ready, it could be too late.
07:32 Exactly.
07:33 It won't grow several centimeters in a few days, right?
07:35 When I eat a lot one night, it grows a few centimeters.
07:38 It's the final stretch of the pregnancy.
07:40 It's a race against the clock.
07:42 Tic-tac, tic-tac.
07:44 Against the clock.
07:45 Tic-tac, tic-tac.
07:47 But...
07:49 You...
07:50 Okay.
07:51 Come in.
07:55 I was thinking that you've been working for months between these dresses without being able to enjoy them.
08:02 Before we go, you can buy one. What do you think?
08:05 I don't need anything, thank you.
08:07 I'd like to give you a gift.
08:09 That way, you'll be the most elegant one in Trieste.
08:12 Is it necessary?
08:16 What?
08:17 I'm fine in this city.
08:21 I love this place and my job.
08:24 I don't want to leave it.
08:25 I thought we agreed.
08:27 Yes, but...
08:28 Don't you think that we could solve things here in Milan?
08:31 No.
08:32 This city makes me nervous.
08:34 I'm sure things will be better in Trieste.
08:37 Okay, I'll go talk to Mr. Conte.
08:40 I'll go with you.
08:41 There's no need, really.
08:43 For him, it'll be a cold water jug and...
08:45 Yes, that's why I want to be with you.
08:47 To support you.
08:48 Mr. Bacchini.
08:50 Can I do something for you?
08:53 No, there's no need, thank you.
08:55 Let's talk to Mr. Conte.
08:56 He's very busy right now.
08:58 You can tell me.
08:59 I want to talk to the one in charge.
09:01 I'm tired of dealing with subordinates like you.
09:03 Mr. Bacchini, please.
09:05 Wait, Oscar.
09:06 I'm sure Mr. Conte doesn't want to prevent me from meeting my superior.
09:11 Right?
09:13 Thank you.
09:21 Come in.
09:32 Good morning, Mr. Conte.
09:33 Good morning, Miss.
09:34 Mr. Bacchini.
09:37 Sorry to bother you. Do you have a minute?
09:39 Of course, have a seat.
09:41 I'm glad to see you're fully recovered.
09:50 Yes, I'm much better, thank you.
09:53 The certificate you asked for.
09:55 Good.
09:57 So, you can resume your post tomorrow.
10:01 Actually...
10:02 I'm here to resign.
10:07 Wow.
10:10 I'm surprised.
10:12 It's been a very difficult decision for us.
10:15 But my wife and I have been talking about it for a while.
10:19 And why?
10:20 Doesn't it feel happy here?
10:21 Doesn't it feel valued?
10:22 No, no, no.
10:23 None of that.
10:24 Let's say it's a decision made by...
10:27 major forces.
10:31 That decision makes me very sad.
10:33 My wife is also very sad.
10:35 Right?
10:37 Listen, can I ask you to leave us alone for a few minutes?
10:44 What do you say?
10:47 No, no, no need.
10:50 I don't want to influence your decision,
10:53 but you don't need to tell him that his professionalism is really essential for everyone in paradise.
10:59 We need you.
11:00 And you, to paradise.
11:02 Your family also needs you.
11:04 Both me and our son.
11:06 Besides, my job in Milan is over.
11:08 That's why...
11:09 we're sad again.
11:11 Okay, then, Mr. Bacchini, I have to ask you to leave me alone with your wife for a few minutes.
11:18 We have a lot of bureaucratic and organizational issues to solve,
11:22 and we have to do a very delicate task transfer.
11:28 Okay.
11:29 I'll wait for you outside.
11:33 Yes.
11:34 Clelia, what's wrong?
11:46 Do you really want to leave?
11:49 Go back to Trieste with your husband?
11:51 I don't think so.
11:53 Be honest with me.
11:55 I'll repeat the question.
11:57 Do you really want to leave?
11:59 Yes.
12:01 Yes, I do.
12:03 Good.
12:08 I'll tell the accountant to prepare the papers to calculate your finiquito.
12:14 I'll consider this talk as your warning.
12:18 You still have two weeks in paradise.
12:22 Okay.
12:25 Clelia...
12:26 Have you talked to Luciano about this decision?
12:31 I'm sure you'll find the right words.
12:37 No.
12:38 I won't.
12:39 You have two weeks to think about it.
12:44 [♪♪♪]
12:47 [♪♪♪]
13:14 [KNOCKING]
13:15 Come in.
13:16 Do you have a moment?
13:18 Of course. Sit down.
13:20 The new administrator of the Santerasmo's heritage.
13:26 What an honor.
13:27 I would have liked to tell you, but I see your spies have been fast.
13:31 Milan is my spy.
13:33 Well, congratulations.
13:35 It's a really prestigious, important and demanding position.
13:39 Have you thought about what you'll invest it in?
13:42 Sports cars, horses, trips, clothes?
13:45 I think you've been left behind, Dad.
13:48 I feel you're the last one to know about things.
13:51 That I'm being dismissed after 20 years of managing a heritage and multiplying it by at least 10?
13:56 You've done very well, I know.
13:58 I have a lot to learn.
14:00 I'm not going to teach this time.
14:04 I don't want to or have nothing to teach.
14:06 They've taken a huge amount of money from me for a stupid matter of jealousy.
14:12 I've let your aunt move you like a pawn in a game that has no rules anymore.
14:16 Do you think it's fair?
14:18 Frankly, I'm not interested.
14:20 We've made decisions and these are the consequences.
14:23 Your aunt is at risk of losing her heritage and ours.
14:26 You mean that if I go to occupy it, it automatically means that I will spend it badly in a few days, right?
14:31 I'll give you a year.
14:32 Thank you for trusting me.
14:35 Have you thought of a plan to contain the passive interests of the assets?
14:40 Or do you plan to titilize a part in values?
14:43 You won't confuse me.
14:44 16 hours a day, 7 days a week for 20 years.
14:47 How do you account for that experience, skill and strategy?
14:51 Do you think you're going to replace me overnight?
14:55 I'll learn.
14:57 Yes, you will learn.
15:00 You will learn very quickly.
15:03 By my side.
15:05 Give me back the position.
15:09 We'll go far together.
15:11 And we'll make money.
15:14 That speech sounds familiar.
15:31 They were lies.
15:35 And they still are.
15:39 Maybe you're right, dad.
15:41 Maybe I have no idea and my aunt is crazy.
15:45 But now I manage her heritage and she believes in me.
15:49 We are stupid like that.
15:51 Words and relationships matter to us.
15:57 Good morning.
16:02 I'm sorry.
16:04 Adelaide has thought about everything.
16:16 She made Ricardo sign all the necessary documentation and then she went to Paris with Marta.
16:21 I'm afraid there are doubts.
16:25 She wants to leave Humberto alone in such a difficult moment.
16:29 She's out of control.
16:31 She's capable of sacrificing her heritage to hurt him.
16:33 Is that what you think of Ricardo?
16:35 You don't?
16:36 Appearances deceive.
16:39 Ricardo is one of the smartest men I know.
16:42 Yes, but intelligence is not enough in business.
16:45 Nor does the heart.
16:46 It's necessary.
16:47 Malice and opportunism?
16:49 More than anything.
16:51 And Ricardo has neither.
16:56 And that's why you like him so much.
16:59 And why you believe in him so much.
17:01 And that's why you believe in Humberto Guarnieri so much.
17:05 He understands his son the least.
17:08 Look at you.
17:11 Good morning, Ludovica.
17:13 Andreina.
17:14 Ricardo.
17:15 I'm sorry.
17:16 I'll let you talk.
17:18 Why don't you stay with us?
17:20 We can all talk.
17:21 I'm going to play tennis and I have to change.
17:24 Thank you.
17:26 I've heard you've become the best player in the city.
17:32 I'm glad you think so, but your opinion is not the most extended.
17:36 But you've done it.
17:37 I haven't.
17:38 I've been given a different opportunity.
17:41 And it took my father five minutes to remind me I know nothing about business.
17:45 He just wants to scare you, you know that.
17:47 You don't have to do accounts, that's what accountants are for.
17:50 You have to find a project and convince many people to believe in him as much as you do.
17:55 And you were born for that.
17:57 And where do I find a good business like that?
18:00 Further away than you think.
18:04 How much do you think the gut grows every week?
18:07 I think two or three meters.
18:09 It looks great on you.
18:10 Isn't it a little short, girls?
18:12 No.
18:13 You think?
18:14 It's perfect.
18:15 Keep working.
18:16 Yes, in fact, I still have to finish all the ilvan.
18:19 Look, the fold is all crooked.
18:21 What a disaster.
18:22 Hey, are you sure you can't cancel dinner with Cesar?
18:26 I don't know.
18:28 No.
18:29 Because if they have stayed on Thursday, it will be for something, right?
18:31 Yes.
18:32 Besides, it's a dinner, but as if it were a job meeting.
18:34 Yes, that's true.
18:35 By the way, what are you going to do on May 1?
18:37 Are we going on a trip?
18:39 Federico told me that the Lord will hold an event in paradise.
18:42 Will it be open?
18:43 No, exactly, more or less.
18:46 So we'll work on May 1?
18:48 No, no, anyone.
18:49 I think it's a way to celebrate the working women.
18:53 And I think he wants to give a gift to the women who come here that day.
18:58 I can think of many other ways to celebrate.
19:01 But are you sure Federico understood it well?
19:03 Normally, the Lord with you tells us with enthusiasm his ideas.
19:06 Normally, but now without Marta it doesn't seem that he is very excited.
19:11 It seems that the inner light has been turned off.
19:13 It's not an easy situation.
19:14 On one side he has his great love and on the other someone from his family.
19:18 Sorry, sorry.
19:19 Well, I think he'll come to tell us soon because it's almost May 1.
19:27 Okay, I think the event is almost over.
19:30 The bow! The bow has fallen!
19:33 No, no, Gabriela, it's not that bad.
19:35 It's not a disaster, it's a disaster.
19:37 It's not a disaster, calm down.
19:38 It's all wrong, it shouldn't be like this.
19:40 Gabriela, it's just a bow.
19:42 You have to focus on what you've done, it's beautiful.
19:45 No, it's not beautiful, it's all wrong.
19:47 It should be more closed here.
19:49 Gabriela, enough, enough, take off my dress.
19:51 I'm full of pins and it hurts me.
19:53 Enough.
19:54 Girls!
19:55 Yes, let's go.
19:56 What a way to scream.
19:57 Be careful not to drop the pins.
19:59 I'm going slowly.
20:01 Be careful, please.
20:02 Well, I don't touch anything.
20:04 I don't do anything.
20:05 Then what do we have to do?
20:06 Well, take it off.
20:07 Like this.
20:08 It's weird to see us here, isn't it?
20:12 Equal and different at the same time.
20:15 He's always very inspired.
20:17 He drinks to be here.
20:18 You have an idea and I have money to invest.
20:23 The perfect marriage.
20:25 But if it goes well, you'll have to help me manage it.
20:27 Do you want to keep a low profile for your father?
20:29 Yes, I think I should spend all my energy managing the family's real estate.
20:35 Virgilio, tell me about him.
20:37 He's one of us and he's been in the business for five years.
20:41 His father died months ago and now he has a huge empire in his hands,
20:48 but a complicated business situation.
20:51 Six branches in the hands of different relatives.
20:53 You know that, then.
20:55 Rumors and curiosity.
20:56 And he wants to gather his shares and take them to the market.
20:59 But before making a public offer, he's going to clubs and salons.
21:04 And you know what he's looking for?
21:06 Young people?
21:07 He wants to stay away from his parents' money.
21:10 I can't blame him.
21:12 This time we have to thank you.
21:15 My father? What did he do this time?
21:18 He rejected my offer to invest in Virgilio.
21:20 Now you have a free hand.
21:22 If I had known, I would have bought the whole company.
21:24 Yes, to destroy it.
21:26 Mercafin 2000, right?
21:29 What can you tell me?
21:31 He'll go around the world of commerce.
21:33 It's an electronic machine that makes invoices.
21:35 They stay in the matrix.
21:37 It's the grave of tax evasion.
21:39 If there was a law that would force merchants to buy one, it would be a big blow.
21:43 Companies would grind capital like a windmill.
21:47 It could be a great opportunity. I'm going to study it well.
21:50 I'm waiting for your news.
21:52 Cosimo.
21:53 Well, it's done.
22:02 Do you know why I'm doing all this?
22:04 To send a message to your father and to all of Milan.
22:07 Not my father.
22:09 Nicoleta.
22:11 Yeah.
22:12 It's impossible to forget.
22:14 Since you remind me every three days.
22:17 Thank you for what you're doing.
22:22 I've already paid my debt.
22:25 Now I want to see your redemption in the front row.
22:30 [Music]
22:32 [Knock on door]
22:38 Come in.
22:39 May I?
22:41 Mr. Guarnieri, what a surprise.
22:43 Come in, please.
22:45 How are you?
22:47 Tell me, what is this honor due to?
22:51 To an opportunity.
22:54 And to some doubts.
22:57 Adelaide has released her assets.
23:00 And she has entrusted it to me.
23:03 So I can't talk to you anymore?
23:06 My father, that is, Media Milan, will declare war on me.
23:09 You're lost.
23:10 Maybe.
23:11 But the last word has not yet been spoken.
23:13 I have to make it clear to him, Vittorio.
23:15 And it has to be now.
23:16 An investment, Vittorio.
23:18 Imposing, daring and high performance.
23:21 Virgilio.
23:24 Virgilio.
23:25 What do you think?
23:27 Virgilio Electronica?
23:29 Exactly.
23:30 Well, I don't know much about that sector.
23:34 But you'll know something about the product.
23:36 Yes, I love innovation and industrial design.
23:40 And they do both well.
23:41 But if I had to invest in them, I would ask myself several questions before.
23:45 For example?
23:46 Authentic innovation is not just a new thing.
23:51 It's something new that reaches everyone.
23:53 The washing machine, the fridge, the portable record player.
23:57 Innovation changes people's perspective.
24:01 Their desires.
24:02 Decoration, landscape.
24:04 The calculator.
24:06 Will it change the nation?
24:08 Will it enrich it?
24:10 Will it be a desire?
24:12 I think so.
24:13 And why do you think so?
24:15 Because it does what the car does by the brain.
24:18 And we use the brain more than the feet.
24:20 You at least.
24:21 I don't.
24:22 You just made a business reasoning.
24:25 Winner or loser?
24:27 Business.
24:29 Luck is another thing.
24:30 But if you feel like it, go and invest.
24:34 I'm afraid.
24:40 Afraid of failing again.
24:42 With my family's money.
24:44 We all know that you've changed your life.
24:48 Are you sure you've convinced us?
24:50 Now you have to convince yourself.
24:53 In business, you make mistakes.
24:57 Then you recover and you make them again.
24:59 And in life?
25:03 It's harder to recover.
25:08 I can't give up, Vittorio.
25:11 I've lost Nicoleta, I know.
25:14 But I can't let her go.
25:18 I don't know if it's my selfishness or fate that speaks for me.
25:23 It's the same thing I think about your sister every day.
25:29 And what do you say?
25:34 That I miss her a lot.
25:39 And I don't know if it's selfishness or fate.
25:47 But I miss her.
25:48 I'm sorry to ruin your little time together.
25:57 But I couldn't leave without saying goodbye.
26:00 Yes, Mom, don't worry.
26:02 I'm sure she's happy.
26:04 She really liked your visit.
26:05 And you?
26:07 Me?
26:09 Yes, yes.
26:11 Cesare.
26:14 Mom, the situation with Nicoleta...
26:17 It's not normal.
26:20 I've tried to manage it well.
26:25 I've paid attention to any possible unexpected.
26:29 So I'm an unexpected?
26:31 No, Mom, you're my guardian angel.
26:36 And you always have good advice for me.
26:40 So you've thought about what I told you?
26:43 About your father?
26:45 More than anything, about happiness.
26:49 You deserve it, son.
26:52 Okay.
26:54 I couldn't take the bus without saying goodbye to you.
27:01 I'm sorry I have to leave so soon.
27:04 I'll be back, I'll be back.
27:06 I'll be back.
27:08 I'll be back, I'll be back.
27:10 Good things are waiting for me here.
27:12 We have to go, Mom. The bus leaves in 20 minutes.
27:15 I'll take you to Navigli, a restaurant.
27:17 Give him a ring.
27:18 And take care.
27:20 Don't worry.
27:22 Goodbye.
27:24 Goodbye.
27:26 Cesare.
27:28 We'll talk later.
27:30 Let's go, Mom.
27:37 [music]
27:39 Clelia.
27:46 Clelia.
27:50 You don't even look at me.
27:53 I know how we'll get rid of your husband.
27:56 I don't care.
27:57 But what's wrong, Clelia?
28:00 Why did you come here with him?
28:02 What did you tell Vit...
28:03 Stop, Luciano.
28:04 Stop, please.
28:05 Wait.
28:06 Why are you talking to me like that?
28:08 Oscar is my husband.
28:09 And the father of my son.
28:11 I have a duty to follow him.
28:13 He promised me he wouldn't touch me again, and I want to believe him.
28:17 Maybe we can start over in Trieste.
28:20 Start over in Trieste? What are you talking about?
28:23 Today I have submitted my resignation.
28:26 I'll be leaving soon.
28:27 You don't have to do that.
28:29 I know what's going on.
28:31 Wait.
28:34 I'm not pretending, I promise.
28:36 I'm leaving with him because it's my decision.
28:38 Don't do anything against Oscar or you'll make me tell him.
28:43 Remember that you're just an accountant.
28:46 Not someone who goes around as a avenger.
28:49 And much less a criminal.
28:51 I know, Clara.
28:53 A simple accountant.
28:56 It doesn't matter...
28:57 Leave me.
28:58 I'm not stupid.
29:03 I'm leaving.
29:04 Lilia...
29:32 What's wrong?
29:33 Nothing, nothing's wrong.
29:36 Don't do that. Tell me.
29:39 I have to go back to Trieste.
29:45 In 15 days.
29:49 But Mr. Conti...
29:54 Mr. Conti can't do anything.
29:56 No one can.
30:01 There are things that can't be changed.
30:04 You have to accept them as they are.
30:07 It can't be. There must be a way...
30:10 There isn't, Roberta.
30:11 I have no choice.
30:15 Come here.
30:19 Hug me tight.
30:24 [sobs]
30:26 Ladies, come here for a moment.
30:39 On May 1st, Paradise will celebrate the freedom of women.
30:48 Every woman is a person.
30:52 And we celebrate the freedom of those people to choose for themselves,
30:55 regardless of their parents, children, husbands or women.
30:59 That freedom is sometimes a luxury.
31:02 We, in our country, are living happy years.
31:06 We love our present.
31:08 And we have faith in the future.
31:10 Every day, thousands of jobs emerge.
31:12 And every day, thousands of women enter through the doors of factories.
31:16 And it's them I want to dedicate this May 1st to.
31:20 I'd like them to feel pampered for a day.
31:23 Because dignity is made up of many things.
31:26 Of work.
31:28 Of economic independence.
31:30 And also of feeling beautiful in front of the mirror.
31:34 And it's precisely in front of that mirror
31:36 that we measure our strength to face the world every morning.
31:41 For the occasion, although Paradise will be closed,
31:44 there will be a stand at the entrance with the articles without selling,
31:47 as a tribute to the workers who participate in the protests.
31:50 Obviously, May 1st is a festive day,
31:53 and it's not mandatory to sign up.
31:55 So, who wants to come?
31:58 Yes!
32:01 Well, ladies, thank you very much.
32:05 And have a good afternoon.
32:06 Thank you.
32:15 I hope it's not another necklace.
32:17 Open it.
32:18 Is it what I think it is?
32:24 The keys to Villa Mandel?
32:29 I promised you, didn't I?
32:30 I don't know what to say.
32:34 Is it so strange that a man wants to move the woman he's going to marry?
32:39 Only if he's really in love.
32:41 You are very important to me.
32:43 And I wanted to show you.
32:45 It's not a good time for me emotionally,
32:48 but you've stayed by my side.
32:50 And I'm grateful to you.
32:52 Even if the others have abandoned you because of me?
32:55 The others have abandoned me.
32:57 The rest is just rumors.
32:59 But now enough complaining.
33:01 I wanted to make you happy,
33:02 and in the end I've let myself be carried away by melancholy.
33:04 You can complain to me all you want.
33:06 No, I'd rather not let myself be carried away.
33:08 Today, for example, I was able to give...
33:10 Congratulations to Ricardo for his new role in the family business.
33:14 And I think I've got a good result.
33:17 Sorry to meddle, but I shouldn't underestimate your son's abilities.
33:21 Today I found him in the circus,
33:24 and he seemed more entrepreneurial than usual.
33:28 Thank you.
33:29 Coming from you is quite a feat.
33:32 I'm sorry to interrupt, it'll only be a minute.
33:37 Dad, Cosimo offered you a part in Virgilio Electronica, right?
33:42 May I ask why you rejected it?
33:45 Because the electronics are made of metal,
33:47 and metal tends to rust, unlike brick.
33:50 They sell at 70%.
33:52 Do you know what that means?
33:53 Irreplaceable prices in exchange for a bright future.
33:56 Well, the future is always bright for the one who sells.
33:59 Virgilio Electronica isn't a nice dress in a villa in La Espiga.
34:03 It's a huge colossus, with international management costs.
34:07 And for what?
34:08 A bet.
34:10 A ghost lab that will end up in who knows what company, who knows when.
34:14 Too many uncertainties for an investment, so I'm not interested.
34:19 And if I were interested?
34:21 Have this capital, do whatever you want with it.
34:24 I won't be the one to stop you.
34:26 The future exists.
34:27 Soon the companies will have calculators.
34:29 And in four or five years, we'll multiply the investment by ten.
34:34 I didn't know you'd become an expert in less than 24 hours.
34:38 Congratulations.
34:39 Now I'd like to finish dinner if you don't mind.
34:42 Of course.
34:43 You like the color of the oil.
34:45 It's allegorical.
34:47 In the past, I would have laughed at hearing such nonsense.
34:56 I told you he's become an entrepreneur.
35:00 Mr. Conti's speech about being free to choose for ourselves was nice.
35:06 Free from husbands, parents, mothers.
35:10 I've got a cramp again.
35:17 Don't you have the needle?
35:18 Yes, but it's too big. I'll go get mine, which is smaller.
35:24 The dress isn't for Nicoleta, did you know?
35:27 No? And for whom?
35:29 Mr. Conti is going to make a line of clothes for pregnant women.
35:33 We think Gabriela could be a great designer.
35:36 But if we tell her, she'll get excited.
35:39 And don't you think of me?
35:41 If it's not a millionaire's wedding, it's a dress for a contest.
35:45 I don't know if I'm up to it. I don't know if I'm that good.
35:48 Of course you are, Mrs. Agnes.
35:53 You're the best.
35:55 Gabriela, I've thought about it.
35:58 What if I take care of the arrangements while you're at work?
36:02 Really, Mrs. Agnes?
36:05 Of course. You have to be ready for Thursday.
36:07 Thank you. You're an angel. Really.
36:10 I don't know what to say.

37:21 I'll kill you and get rid of this nightmare.
37:24 You're not a man.

37:28 -Love, listen to me. -Love?
37:30 For you, love is violence.
37:33 Abuse, anguish, blackmail.
37:37 Me, my son.
37:39 Luchano and everyone we've met on your path.
37:43 Only Luchano can call you love.
37:46 At least he knows what it is.
37:50 I'll go to jail, I don't care.
37:54 But I'll finally be free.
37:57 Free to be with him.
37:59 To watch my son grow up.
38:01 To walk the streets.
38:03 To smile.
38:06 I'll finally be able to start living.
38:10 Because you're worthless when you're alive.
38:14 But worthless when you're dead.
