You know something, Gustavo?
:57:18
My grandmother...
:57:22
...a doctor got her pregnant.
:57:27
A high society guy.
:57:29
Rich.
:57:33
Since we were poor...
:57:39
...his parents
didn't approve of us.

:57:42
So they shipped him away
out of Havana.

:57:47
Later...
:57:49
...my mom got married...
:57:55
...and I was born.
:58:03
But he left too.
:58:09
One day my mom and I were
outside the Yara Cinema.

:58:15
She pointed at this man
standing by the door and said...

:58:20
"You see that man
standing over there?

:58:22
That's your dad."
:58:26
And what did you do?
:58:28
Me?
:58:31
I walked up to him.
:58:35
And I told him...
:58:37
..."l'm your daughter."
:58:42
He looked at me.
:58:45
And he said,
"You're a very pretty girl."

:58:52
He gave me five pesos...
:58:56
...and I never saw him again.
