00:30
Why when things seem to go well ...? Suddenly...
00:33
...without warning.
00:36
They stop working
01:03
Questions.
01:05
Questions that rarely have answers.
01:10
And all they do is increase the uncertainty.
01:15
How much does luck have to do in all this?
01:20
But actually...
01:21
... in a second
01:22
everything can change.
01:26
Is it true when they say that if a
01:28
door is closed ...
01:30
... a window opens?
01:35
Life, at times ... ... seems to be driving itself.
01:39
It turns. Changes pace
01:43
How much do we really influence those changes?
01:52
Who am I? I was the
01:55
first child of parents who dreamed... ...of a united and numerous family.
02:00
And I got used to having more things than I needed.
02:03
My way of answering them was to be the best. In everything
02:08
I started looking for more independence. Writing allowed me to invent that place.
02:15
One day... ... I decided to look further.
02:19
I realized that there were many things I didn't know, like..
02:23
...how to play guitar
02:28
Until one morning ... ... I had a lucky accident.
02:31
I met Beatrice. She was the first to
02:34
see the things I had written. Beatrice showed it to Jack.
02:42
Jack could not stop reading. Jack showed it to Celine.
02:47
Celine was touched. She showed it to Professor Pingot.
02:53
Professor Pingot didn't think the text was mine. He showed it to Mr. Connor.
03:00
Mr. Connor owned a major publisher.
03:07
And in that moment... ...everything...
03:11
...started.
03:14
"I wanted to tell you that the first edition is running out."
03:17
"And we're printing the second ..." "... And you're still in the ranking!"
03:52
Yes?
03:53
Good afternoon Who are you?
03:57
Who am I? I grew up with my grandparents.
04:01
I had a very happy childhood, ... ... that faded away little by little.
04:07
First my grandfather. Then it was my grandmother.
04:10
The chicken... ...the plant...
04:12
...and the dog's sight.
04:19
The city seemed like the perfect place to start growing.
04:28
It seemed.
04:32
Things went well in Mr. Yussuff's greengrocer.
04:35
Until the very greedy could not bear I got hungry.
04:48
By chance, I met a great hairdresser.
04:54
The actresses of the nextdoor theater ... ...went in the afternoons to ask...
04:58
...for hair for their wigs. I would put them in a bag and take it to them.
05:16
It was several months. Until one day,...
05:19
... the main actress did'nt make the final rehearsal.
05:23
And I knew your text by heart.
05:27
"Thinking about it, ... ... makes me want to tear myself to shreds! "
05:47
Then, the first text did not take long to prove me.
05:50
And the first payments to act.
05:53
And the first investment ... ...a bicycle.
05:57
In the mornings I use it to go to the theater school.
06:00
And in the afternoons ... ... I work delivering orders.
06:04
Sir, I'm from "Click" offices. Home delivery.
06:07
Well,... ... come in, ...
06:09
... dont just stay there. Don't worry sir.
06:12
You just have to sign the receipt.
06:51
Come in. I'm not used to signing standing up.
07:13
It does not say what the box contains. Do you know?
07:17
I can tell you've never received a delivery. I have no idea
07:22
So many books... Are you a writer?
07:26
I've written something here and there. Are you famous?!
07:34
What is fame to you? It seems to me...
07:37
...something like the reverse of oblivion?
07:40
I once heard a writer say that fame ... ...is a spot on the tip of the nose.
07:46
Everyone sees it ... ...except you.
07:48
I think you realize that you care, ... ... when you look in the
07:52
newspapers ... ...and you don't appear.
07:56
When you go out to the street ... ... and nobody greets you.
08:04
I'm going to make coffee. Do you want one?
08:07
I do not know if it that would be correct. It will be only five incorrect
08:11
minutes. Ok.
08:19
And tell me, what do you do? Half the time I'm a delivery girl.
08:30
The other half, actress. And in two weeks we will premiere a play ...
08:35
...and for the first time I have the leading role!
08:38
That's great! ¡Yeah!
08:40
Everything has been like a dream. I still can't believe it.
08:44
And you? What are you working on now?
08:49
In a kind of crisis, I would say. Things do not come to me.
08:59
It's as if everything changed very suddenly.
09:02
In a moment I was so high ... ... that it changed my point of view.
09:09
And it happens that sometimes,... ...inspiration suffers from vertigo in heights.
09:15
And she leaves... ... without giving any explanation.
09:19
And you stay... ...blank
09:21
Time passed by and
09:22
my editor asked for explanations ... ... that I couldn't even give myself.
09:26
Maybe everything was a sum of fortunate events. Maybe it was just being at the right
09:30
time and in the right place. And the worst of all...
09:34
...is that maybe I never even had any ... ...talent.
09:46
I have a confession to make. I know very well who you are.
09:51
You probably dont even imagine,... ...but yout book ...
09:54
...was my only company for a long time. I read it many times.
10:02
It was a great friend... ...in difficult times.
10:08
When I went to work at the delivery company, ... ... I fantasized about the idea that
10:12
one day ... ... it would be
10:13
my turn to deliver you something ... ... and I could meet you in person.
10:18
Sometimes,... ... you have to help luck a little bit.
10:22
Also, I wanted you to know that the text of the play I told you about ...
10:25
...is mine. And is inspired by your book.
10:29
I hope you don't mind. No...
10:32
No no!... I...
10:34
Of course not, I ... I had to tell you what you ...
10:37
...your book!,... ...means to me.
10:47
Well! I have to go. I wont take up more of your time.
10:50
Thanks for the conversation... ...and coffee.
10:53
You're welcome... ...It was very nice...
11:01
I would love to see you… ...go see you!, to the premiere
11:05
of your play. Of course!
11:06
You have to see it! I'll send you an invitation.
11:28
¡Hey! There is nothing in the box!
11:33
Are you sure? Look again...
