:39:04
l don't know what they'll say:
:39:07
that l'm dead,
:39:09
or went off on a long trip.
:39:12
You won't see her again?
:39:15
They're against it. l promised.
:39:19
lt's not important.
:39:21
Where's my drink?
:39:27
l'm gonna wind up being a drag.
:39:33
Thanks.
:39:35
Want to see my father?
:39:43
He died in Morocco.
:39:44
l was only eight.
:39:48
He was in Morocco a few months.
:39:51
l never knew
what he was doing there.
:39:53
Nor did my mother.
:39:56
l remember him well.
:39:58
Never serious.
Always joking about things.
:40:01
Mom told him:
Comb your hair for the photo.
:40:05
''l am the way l am.''
:40:08
Do you see your mother?
:40:10
No, not often.
:40:12
My father had a... not really a...
a little factory... a store...
:40:18
where he made fertilizers.
:40:20
A chemist ran the show after he died.
Mom sold it 3 years ago,
:40:25
and kept the apartment upstairs.
:40:28
She never remarried?
:40:31
No.
:40:33
When l was 10,
she sent me to her sister.
:40:36
Said the country was good
for my bad health.
:40:40
Do you know the Vendée?
:40:42
No.
:40:43
Just the beach resort.
:40:45
Ah. Well, we were inland,
near Deux-Sévres.
:40:48
Unca and Auntie had
an inn in a village there.
:40:56
l liked it a lot there.
:40:57
The rooms were damp
and had feather beds,
