My son, my son! Why?
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
I don’t remember a thing, Doctor.
It says on your report that you just came back from leave.
Yes. My wife passed away a little over a month ago.
I’m sorry.
- Do you have any kids? - A girl.
Is she all right?
Recovering.
Do you have a family history of mental illness?
My mother suffered from depression.
Did she get better?
No, she died when I was seven.
How did she die?
She killed herself.
What about your dad?
- Never met him. Am I free to go, Doctor? - Almost.
I’ll order a few tests,
and I’ll also prescribe you an anxiolytic
just to help you endure this stressful time.
Here’s a doctor’s note.
You should stay home for a while, okay?
I’m placing you on sick leave.
- I can’t stay away from work-- - You can and you must.
You seem to be suffering from PTSD.
- I’m in the middle of an investi-- - It’s not optional, Eric.
What the fuck? You’re putting me on leave?
Ivo, I have to continue with this investigation.
You have to leave, that’s what.
Ivo, please.
Don’t do this to me, man.
A man is dead and the only person at the crime scene was you.
We have to investigate that.
As an officer, given the situation, you’re a liability.
To others and yourself.
I’m innocent!
Save it for your interrogation.
- Márcia, I need your help. - I’d leave if I were you.
Why? You know I didn’t kill him.
I didn’t kill him, Márcia.
- You don’t believe me either? - How do you expect me to?
- Why do you say that? - You lied to me.
- You told me that Luna was sick. - She is sick.
What about the river dolphin? I know you never got the autopsy.
- I went to the coroner, and she-- - Where were you Monday evening?
I was home.
Spare me, Eric.
I talked to Mrs. Januária.
She told me you’ve been coming home late,
and you arrived soaking wet one of these mornings.
I don’t remember.
Do you remember going to the forest the night before the corpse was found?
Here’s your car’s GPS tracking data.
Tell me, Eric. What’s going on?
- Are you investigating me? - I want the truth.
- You wouldn’t believe me. - That’s up to me to decide.
Tell me, Eric.
- It’s hard to explain. - Try me.
You know those legends we heard when we were kids?
Well, they’re real.
The river dolphin, it turned into Manaus overnight.
And Tutu turned into a peccary right before my eyes.
Eric, I don’t know what’s going on, but you’re not yourself.
Go home, get some rest.
I said you wouldn’t believe me.
Now, if you need proof, go to the coroner’s office.
I’ll bet that Tutu’s eyes have also gone white.
I was so concerned.
It’s okay, Grandma.
Where’s Luna?
In her room, sleeping.
Let me ask you something.
Did you tell Márcia I wasn’t here Monday evening?
Well, I arrived home late
and there was nobody here.
What time did you arrive?
Game night was long.
It was after 2 a.m.
What’s the matter, dear?
I think I’m going crazy, Grams.
When I left with Luna, it was 10 p.m.
You don’t remember anything you did all that time?
No.
Well, I’m going to check up on Luna.
- Hey, baby. - Dad...
Are you okay?
You’re a little warm. Do you have a fever again?
I’ll ask Great-grandma to take your temperature.
Won’t you stay here with me?
I don’t want you to go out anymore.
I’m scared.
Sweetie, you don’t have to be afraid, okay?
I need to run some errands,
but Great-grandma will take care of you until I’m back.
Stop filling Luna’s head with this nonsense.
You told her it was a protection necklace. Now she won’t do anything without it.
It is a protection necklace, Eric.
Gabi, you are an adult. You can believe anything you want to.
That doesn’t mean you should pass it on to her.
You know, I don’t think you’re bothered by these things
because you don’t believe in them, but because they scare you.
Remember when your mom gave you this necklace?
I do.
- It’s the necklace from the Moon Warriors. - Yeah.
Like your name: Luna.
That’s why I know you’re so, so brave.
Right?
I’ll be right back, sweetie.
These marks on Eric’s chest. What caused them?
It appears to have been an animal.
Animal? What kind?
It’s a forensic exam, not a crystal ball.
Didn’t you ask him what caused the wounds?
He didn’t remember.
- What about the victim’s autopsy report? - Asphyxia.
Due to strangulation?
No, there are no signs of strangulation.
What caused the asphyxia, then?
We don’t know.
Is there anything you do know?
- Listen here, lady-- - Officer Márcia.
And I want to see the body now.
- Where’s the body? - I don’t know.
What do you mean?
Camila!
I don’t want to talk to you.
Camila, please. I need your help.
I stood up for you.
I went up against Inês, against Tutu! And now he’s dead.
- You killed Tutu. - No, I didn’t!
- I don’t think I did. -“You don’t think”?
Wait, Camila!
I blacked out. I can’t remember anything.
When I woke up, Tutu was already dead.
Camila, I’m Manaus’s son.
Hello, Albuquerque? Listen. I just found--
You stole this corpse. You’re under arrest.
You’re going to arrest me?
What are you so afraid of?
What are you doing?
Sleep, little baby
Cuca is coming to get you
Daddy is out in the field
I can’t change who I am. I didn’t do anything wrong, Mom!
Nothing wrong?
No! I love Luci. She loves me. It’s love, that’s all.
Love? That’s not love, that’s an abomination.
If you wanna live like that, fine, but not under my roof.
You’re a freak.
Easy.
Everything’s fine.
I know what it’s like to be rejected, Márcia.
I was a disgrace to my family.
I got pregnant without a husband.
I was kicked out of the house.
I decided to have the baby even so.
But it was stillborn.
I paid a high price for that.
But here I am.
You’re not a freak.
You could be one of us.
I don’t know, Camila. It’s all so confusing now.
But I didn’t kill Tutu.
How can you be sure if you don’t remember?
Because if I really killed Tutu, then I could’ve killed Manaus as well.
Calm down, Eric.
You need to remember what happened.
The night of Manaus’s death, where were you?
People are cruel, Isac.
They’re afraid of anything different,
because we reveal how they’re all exactly the same,
and how boring they are.
Where is she?
Tutu dies, and you’re asking about Camila?
If not for her, he would still be alive.
Inês, we need to stick together right now.
We’ve been drifting apart for so long, Isac.
There’s no turning back.
Do you know who killed them?
I do.
The same man Curupira killed.
But now, he’s back.
We found the river dolphin around here.
I parked my car across the street.
I came to meet a man who claimed to have information
on Gabriela’s death.
I believe this man was Manaus.
And then what happened?
I’m not sure.
That night, I thought I’d been out for half an hour,
but it seems I was out for much longer.
How much longer?
Hours.
What’s worse, I don’t remember exactly what I did that evening.
The next day, I found the river dolphin here.
That guy!
- What about him? - He was here, I remember him.
Hey, pal. Can I have a word with you?
Don’t worry, I just wanna talk.
Listen, you’ve seen me before, right?
On this beach.
I see lots of people on the beach. I can’t remember.
I was here Monday evening, inside my car.
There was only you and me on this beach. Right?
If you say so.
Do you remember this man?
Yeah.
What do you remember?
He left the car to speak to a man.
What did this man look like?
He was tall, strong, and wore a hat.
What did he do to that man?
He grabbed the man by the neck.
The man ran away towards the sea and he chased him.
And then?
That’s all I saw.
- What now? - I’ll go to Toré Village and talk to Ciço.
- I’ll go with you. - No.
If I’m really the killer, you’re at risk too.
- I’m not afraid of you. - But I am.
Stay away from me.
Grandma!
Luna.
Grandma!
What’s the matter, honey?
Calm down, love.
I’m here. Calm down.
Grandma!
Ciço, I owe you an apology.
The entities are dying, aren’t they, Eric?
I was there when Manaus and Tutu died.
But I don’t remember what I did.
There’s a real chance I killed them.
I might’ve killed Gabriela, too.
Ciço, I need to perform the ritual you told me about.
Go get busy, boy!
Iberê...
Enough.
What’s up, kid?
You have to go back, man.
I’m hearing some weird noise.
What’s that?
- Look-- - Iberê, you don’t understand.
Iberê, you have to come back.
I’ve been there and back again.
- Go back where, squirt? - Back to being you.
To help us.
I ain’t...
helping shit.
You’re the one who should go back to where you came from
and leave me alone.
Tutu is dead, Iberê.
Not my problem.
How is it not your problem, Iberê?
For Chrissake, you think I’m joking? This is serious, bro!
It’s that hunter. The guy you killed. He’s back.
He’s killing us all, Iberê. We need you to come back.
- We need Curupira-- - Not a chance!
Forget about Curupira.
I told you, leave me alone.
No, wait! We’re family, man.
Don’t I give you food when you need it?
Don’t I get you out of the gutter when you’re blackout drunk?
Now you’re giving me this shit?
I’m scared, Iberê.
Deal with it.
Get a jump on it. Aren’t you Saci?
She is in the room.
- Can we get started? - Yes, of course.
- And how is the boy doing? - Fine.
He’s a grown man. She’s his daughter.
Honey,
I brought a nice man here who will help you get better.
- What’s her name? - Luna.
Luna?
The tea is only a key.
It’s up to you to open that door
and walk the path you need.
Focus on your breathing
and on your heart.
What’s going to happen to me?
You’ll be able to see what’s inside you.
What’s really inside you.
You might see things that upset you.
But you have to.
Go.
Lie down.
Grandma!
I need to talk to you.
- Do I know you? - No.
But I knew Gabriela.
- Tell me. - I was there when she died.
By the authority vested in me, reveal thyself.
