Transcripción
00:00She's about to experience something very raw and cruel, and she'll do everything she can to save her son, but she doesn't know it yet.
00:05He's Guido, a friendly and witty guy who always finds comedy and beauty in everything.
00:09He is heading with his friend Ferruccio to the Italian town of Arezzo to work as a waiter, when suddenly the car's brakes fail.
00:15He stops in front of a farm to repair them and Guido meets a young girl to whom he jokingly tells that he is a prince waiting for his princess.
00:21And at that moment, by accident, a woman named Dora falls on top of him and Guido says good morning princess while laughing.
00:27Guido says goodbye and Dora thanks him with half a dozen eggs.
00:30A little later, the friends arrive at the home of Guido's uncle, Eliseo, who takes them in and finds them jobs.
00:35Upon arrival, they find the uncle on the ground, while some vandals who attacked him for being Jewish flee.
00:41World War II was approaching and anti-Jewish sentiment was on the rise.
00:45The next day, Guido goes to the town hall because he wants to open a bookstore and needs permission from the official Rodolfo.
00:50He refuses to sign because he has to leave, and when Guido leaves, he accidentally, or maybe not, throws a flowerpot that falls on him.
00:57Guido tries to help him and to do so he leaves the eggs he is carrying in Rodolfo's hat.
01:01But he rejects Guido and when he puts his hat back on, the eggs break on his head.
01:06Rodolfo chases Guido, who runs away and steals a bicycle to escape.
01:10He loses control and runs over a teacher who is walking with her students.
01:14It's Dora!
01:14He greets her with a good morning, princess, and runs off, because he has to get to his new job as a waiter at his uncle Eliseo's hotel.
01:21The next morning, on his way to work, Guido sees Dora in the square.
01:23He goes towards her to greet her, but hides when he sees Rodolfo coming in his car.
01:28The official greets Dora and leaves, and with Rodolfo no longer in sight, Guido comes out and greets Dora with a good morning, princess.
01:34Here she finds out that she is a teacher.
01:35Guido asks her out, but she replies that she prefers unexpected encounters.
01:39Later, while Guido works as a waiter, he befriends Dr. Lessing, a German doctor who loves riddles.
01:45Just as they were about to close the restaurant, a minister from Rome arrived, insisting on eating.
01:49Guido manages to feed him the plate that the doctor left untouched because he was busy solving riddles.
01:54and he finds out that the minister will attend tomorrow to give a speech at the school where Dora works
01:57and he decides to pretend to be him to meet his princess again.
02:02So he arrives at school and greets her with a good morning princess and she smiles in disbelief.
02:06Guido asks her what she's doing on Sunday and she tells him she's going to the opera.
02:09Then they ask Guido to give the speech and he does it in a comical way.
02:12The children laugh and then the real minister arrives and Guido escapes through the window.
02:16Sunday arrives and Guido attends the opera, sees Dora and realizes that she is accompanied by the civil servant Rodolfo.
02:21They are a couple.
02:22After finishing the play, Dora waits at the door for Rodolfo to pick her up.
02:26and Guido comes up with the idea of taking his friend Ferrucho's car, which is identical to Rodolfo's, to pick her up.
02:31She thinks Rodolfo gets into the car and gets scared, but finally she is happy.
02:36They have a pleasant date night during which Guido gradually wins Dora's heart.
02:39Days later, a party takes place at Uncle Eliseo's hotel where Guido is a waiter.
02:43The rejection of Jews has intensified and some vandals painted the uncle's horse.
02:47The reason for the party is to announce Dora's marriage to Rodolfo.
02:50She doesn't want to and doesn't want to leave her room, but her mother forces her.
02:54At that Rodolfo proclaims that he and Dora will get married and Guido becomes sad.
02:58Our waiter trips and drops his tray, ducking under the table to pick it up.
03:02and Dora also comes down, kisses him and tells him to take her with him.
03:07Moments later Guido enters the living room with his uncle's horse
03:09and under everyone's astonished gaze, Dora escapes with him.
03:13Six years pass and now they have a son named Joshua, who loves tanks.
03:17The Germans have entered the country, but Guido still managed to set up a bookstore, with his son helping him.
03:22One day Joshua asks his father why there are businesses that do not allow Jews.
03:25And Guido, trying to preserve his son's innocence, explains that every business is free to let in whoever it wants.
03:30and that they will ban spiders from entering the bookstore because they can't stand them.
03:34Guido uses this type of joke to help his son escape the harsh reality.
03:38We see that the boy is very similar to his father, he hates showering, which will be crucial later on.
03:43And he also says good morning princess.
03:46The next day is Josué's birthday and Dora arrives home with her mother as a surprise, but discovers something terrible.
03:50German soldiers have taken Uncle Eliseo, Guido, and their son to a concentration camp.
03:56On the train, Guido tells his son that it's a surprise trip for his birthday.
04:00Dora runs to the station and insists on being put on.
04:02A comfortable life without loved ones is worse than the cruelty of a concentration camp.
04:06The train arrives at the camp and they are separated.
04:08Dora with the women, Uncle Eliseo on one side and Guido and Josué on the other.
04:11Guido tells his son that it's all a game, that they are separated into teams
04:14and the first to reach a thousand points will win a real tank.
04:18Joshua hesitates, but then a German soldier arrives to explain the rules of the camp.
04:21and Guido offers himself as a translator without knowing German
04:24and translates everything as if it were indeed a game to convince his son.
04:28A little later, men begin to perform forced labor.
04:31while children and the elderly stay in the ravines.
04:33Guido returns and Josué tells him that the other children don't know about any games.
04:37Guido replies that they are deceiving him because they want to beat him.
04:39Well, they have already achieved 60 points and are in first place.
04:41And Joshua rejoices.
04:43The next day Dora learns that the elderly and children
04:45They tell them that they will take them to shower
04:47but they actually take them to gas chambers.
04:49She fears for her son's life.
04:51In fact, Uncle Eliseo loses his life, yes.
04:53But Joshua is saved because he heard that they were going to shower
04:56decides to escape because he hates the shower.
04:58Guido finds out and tells Josué that from now on he must hide all day.
05:01because if they see him he will lose the game.
05:03Guido can't stop thinking about Dora
05:05So one day he takes advantage of the fact that no one is watching the megaphone
05:07and together with Joshua he sends him a nice message.
05:09Good morning princess, I can't stop thinking about you.
05:12Dora listens and smiles.
05:14He knows they are fine.
05:15Guido is then forced to undergo a medical examination.
05:16to see if it is still useful.
05:18And the doctor turns out to be Dr. Lessing
05:20who recognizes him and recommends him to be a waiter
05:22at a dinner that the Germans will have.
05:24Guido is excited because he believes the doctor wants to help him.
05:26although he will be greatly disappointed later.
05:29Guido returns to the ravine and Josué tells him he wants to leave.
05:31His father replies that they can do it.
05:33although it would be a shame to abandon the game
05:35being so close to winning with almost 700 points.
05:39Joshua gets excited and changes his mind.
05:41Then a group of children of German soldiers
05:43arrives at the field and they play hide and seek.
05:45Guido takes the opportunity to get Josué out
05:46so that you can see that the children who participate in the game
05:49They do indeed hide.
05:51Then an officer sees Guido with his son.
05:52and thinks that Joshua is a German boy
05:54so he takes him with the rest of the children.
05:56Guido tells him that to continue earning points
05:57can't speak a single word.
05:59This is so they don't find out.
06:00However, in an oversight
06:02Josué says thank you in Italian to a waiter
06:04and he runs to warn a superior
06:06but when they return they see the ingenious Guido
06:08Teaching German children to say thank you in Italian
06:11and makes them believe that it was because of that.
06:13Then Dr. Lessing asks to speak to Guido.
06:15who is greatly disappointed
06:16realizing that the doctor
06:17He just wants me to help him with a riddle.
06:20and doesn't really care to help him.
06:22After this Guido sends another signal to his wife
06:24putting on the opera music
06:26from the day of his first evening.
06:27Dora listens to her and cries.
06:29Dinner ends and Guido and Josué
06:31They return to the ravine to rest
06:32something that is soon interrupted.
06:34The war is over
06:35the allied army is near
06:36so the Germans take them in trucks
06:38to kill everyone they can.
06:41Knowing this, Guido hides Josué.
06:42in a small mailbox.
06:43He tells him that everyone is looking for him.
06:44because he is the winner
06:46and to receive the prize
06:47should only go out
06:48until there is no one left.
06:49The excited child
06:50accept the challenge.
06:51From here Guido goes to look for Dora
06:53but he can't find it anywhere
06:54and that's where they discover it.
06:56They order him to walk.
06:57He knows that Joshua is watching him.
06:58so again it proves
07:00her unwavering love for him.
07:02Pretend that nothing is happening
07:03and mocks the form
07:04in which they parade.
07:05Joshua thinks it's a game
07:06and they both wink at each other
07:08as a sign of complicity.
07:10And so they say goodbye.
07:12They take Guido to an alley
07:14and end their lives.
07:15Guido walked smiling
07:16towards his death
07:16because he won.
07:17He did everything he could
07:18for those he loved.
07:19Nothing could break
07:20the strength of his love
07:21nor his will.
07:22Nothing could take it away from him
07:23his last freedom.
07:24Choosing your attitude
07:25given their circumstances.
07:27And it is that,
07:28As Frank said,
07:28when we cannot change
07:29a situation
07:30we face the challenge
07:31to change us
07:32ourselves.
07:33The next day
07:34there are no more Germans.
07:35The survivors leave
07:36and until I see no one
07:37as his father told him.
07:38Joshua comes out of hiding
07:40and the prize arrives.
07:41A tank arrives
07:42and an allied soldier comes out.
07:44For Joshua
07:44the game is over
07:45and everything worked out
07:46as his father told him.
07:47The soldier takes Joshua up
07:48and takes it along with him.
07:49On the way
07:50Joshua recognizes Dora.
07:51His mother is alive.
07:52He gets out of the tank
07:53and goes with her.
07:54Dora is happy
07:54to be able to return
07:55to see his son
07:56and hugs him
07:57while he tells him
07:58who won the game
07:59that with so much love
08:00his father
08:01gave him a birthday present.
08:03Love is strength
08:04more powerful
08:04and the highest goal
08:05to which you can aspire
08:06the human being
08:06said Frankl.
08:07Love is the only thing
08:08that can make us
08:09forget about ourselves
08:10and put someone else first
08:12even when one is in danger
08:14going against instinct
08:16and expressing
08:16the highest level
08:18of humanity.
08:18And the more one
08:19forgets himself
08:20giving oneself to another
08:21the more human it becomes.
08:22It's love
08:23which allows us
08:24find reasons
08:25to continue in difficulty.
08:26It is the force of love
08:27what makes us able to find
08:29even in the moments
08:30more difficult
08:31comedy
08:31and beauty
08:32in life.
