I'm Cristina, and this is my friend Vicky.
What color are your eyes?
Well, I'd like to invite you both to come with me to Oviedo.
Vicky To come where?
To Oviedo. For the weekend. We leave in one hour.
Vicky By plane?
I go to see a sculpture, that is very inspiring to me. A very beautiful sculpture. You will love it.
Vicky Oh, right. you're asking us to fly to Oviedo and back.
Mmmm. No, we'll spend the weekend. I mean, I'll show you around the city, and we'll eat well. We'll drink good wine. We'll make love.
Vicky Yeah, who exactly is going to make love?
Hopefully, the three of us.
[Looking at a sculpture of Jesus]
Are you very religious?
No, no, no, no, I'm not. The trick is to enjoy life, accepting it has no meaning whatsoever.
No meaning? You don't think that authentic love gives life meaning?
Yes, but love is so transient. Isn't it? I was in love with a most incredible woman... and then in the end...
Vicky Yes?
Vicky Well, maybe you did something to deserve it.
Well, now that the day's almost over, is it reasonable of me to ask you if you'll both join me in my room?
Vicky Oh, come on, I thought we'd settled that.
Vicky's just trying to say that she's engaged to be married, that's all.
Great. Then these are her last days of freedom.
Vicky No. Look, I'm not free. I'm committed. You know what my theory is? And when I drink, I get brutally frank. I think that you're still hurting from the failure of your marriage to Maria Elena, and you're trying to lose yourself in empty sex.
Empty sex? Do you have such a low opinion of yourself?
Vicky So, uh, tell me why, why won't your father publish his poems?
Well, because, ungh, he hates the world and that's his way of getting back at them, to create beautiful works and then to deny them to the public, which I think it's...
Vicky My god.
Vicky Oh, what makes him so angry toward the human race?
Because after thousands of years of civilization they still haven't learned to love.
