1
00:00:13,838 --> 00:00:25,979
THIS IS NOT THE TALE OF IMPRESSIVE DEEDS
IS A PIECE OF TWO LIVES TAKEN IN A MOMENT
WHEN THEY WERE CRUISING TOGETHER ALONG A GIVEN PATH
WITH THE SAME IDENTITY OF ASPIRATIONS AND DREAMS
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, 1952
2
00:00:56,089 --> 00:00:58,962
The Plan: To travel 8 thousand kilometers in four months
3
00:01:01,238 --> 00:01:03,730
The method: Improvisation
4
00:01:10,601 --> 00:01:15,273
Objective: Explore the Latin American continent
that we only know by books
5
00:01:15,627 --> 00:01:19,908
motorcycle diaries
6
00:01:20,009 --> 00:01:21,209
Good Night Granado
7
00:01:22,750 --> 00:01:25,092
Equipment: "La Poderosa" (The Powerful)
8
00:01:26,672 --> 00:01:30,118
A '39 Norton 500 that's battered and leaks

00:01:37,591 --> 00:01:39,116
The Pilot: Alberto Granado
10
00:01:39,645 --> 00:01:41,828
A chubby friend, 29 years old and biochemist
11
00:01:42,714 --> 00:01:43,989
self proclaimed scientific vagabond
12
00:01:45,064 --> 00:01:48,476
The Pilot's dream: crown the
trip with he's 30th birthday
13
00:01:50,190 --> 00:01:52,251
Copilot: That would be me
14
00:01:52,852 --> 00:01:54,155
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna
15
00:01:54,441 --> 00:01:56,491
"El Fuser", 23 years old
16
00:01:56,515 --> 00:01:59,193
- Ernesto is going away?
- No, Ernesto stays
17
00:01:59,740 --> 00:02:02,743
Ernesto, could you takes us with you, please
18
00:02:02,774 --> 00:02:04,425
Look dad, I'm sorry, but no matter how
many times you tell me...
19
00:02:04,434 --> 00:02:06,979
Please Ernesto, you are only 3 assignments
away from your MD title
20
00:02:07,473 --> 00:02:08,818
And that can wait
21
00:02:11,206 --> 00:02:12,710
MD student
22
00:02:13,032 --> 00:02:14,136
Leprosy specialist
23
00:02:17,534 --> 00:02:18,739
Amateur Rugby player
24
00:02:20,547 --> 00:02:22,359
Hey Fuser... nice Fuser!
25
00:02:22,791 --> 00:02:24,667
And occasionally, asthmatic
26
00:02:36,338 --> 00:02:37,640
Departure date... January 4th
27
00:02:37,641 --> 00:02:40,741
The route: from Buenos Aires to Patagonia
and then Chile
28
00:02:42,340 --> 00:02:47,704
then to the north up to 6 thousand meters
by the spine of the Andes to Machu Picchu
29
00:02:47,728 --> 00:02:51,437
From there, to the lepers home of San Pablo
in the Peruvian amazonia
30
00:02:53,142 --> 00:02:57,706
Final Destination: the Peninsula of Guajira in Venezuela
at the north point of the continent
31
00:02:57,906 --> 00:03:03,204
We settle at the Peninsula of Guajira, the point of this great continent
32
00:03:03,220 --> 00:03:06,417
Mouths full of wine, nice music
33
00:03:06,672 --> 00:03:07,769
That beer is good, ah?
34
00:03:08,249 --> 00:03:12,051
- Fuser, on January 4th, you should be done with all your exams, right?
- Yes
35
00:03:12,783 --> 00:03:18,651
- If you want, i can make a detour to Miramar to visit your little girlfriend
- "little girlfriend"
36
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,701
A couple of days
37
00:03:23,018 --> 00:03:26,794
- Look Fuser, look at that guy over there
- What?
38
00:03:27,363 --> 00:03:29,130
Do you want your life to be like that?
39
00:03:30,772 --> 00:03:32,865
You don't want your life to be like that, Fuser
40
00:03:33,901 --> 00:03:36,164
What you want is to fuck in every country in South America
41
00:03:36,318 --> 00:03:40,858
Hey boy... and in every town if we are lucky enough
That's and extra ingredient, right
42
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:46,325
What we had in common: our restlessness, our dreaming spirit
43
00:03:47,586 --> 00:03:49,857
and the untiring love for the route
44
00:03:49,858 --> 00:03:51,679
BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA
January 4th, 1952
Km 0
45
00:03:52,334 --> 00:03:55,035
Let's go Ernestito, we don't have the whole day
46
00:03:55,592 --> 00:04:00,054
- Isn't it too much Granado?
- Not enough chief. Norton 500, "this" is a motorcycle
47
00:04:00,227 --> 00:04:03,144
Your son is in good wheels, don't worry
48
00:04:08,327 --> 00:04:10,955
You should expect some difficult times son
49
00:04:11,508 --> 00:04:14,653
But the truth is that i always dreamed of doing something like this
50
00:04:14,917 --> 00:04:19,794
And i have to confess that if i had a couple less years on me...
I would jump right along with you on that motorcycle
51
00:04:19,981 --> 00:04:21,732
Try to think that i do it for the both of us
52
00:04:21,740 --> 00:04:25,191
- 10 years planning this trip, uncle
- Since you were a kid
53
00:04:25,252 --> 00:04:29,169
Meanwhile... I trust you eh?
54
00:04:30,961 --> 00:04:32,475
And the revolution uncle, for when?
55
00:04:32,510 --> 00:04:34,951
Here? In a century
56
00:04:37,655 --> 00:04:40,198
- Are you already leaving?
- Yes, I�m off
57
00:04:42,450 --> 00:04:46,862
You should only worry about taking your medicines, nothing more, ok?
58
00:04:48,089 --> 00:04:48,927
And writing me...
59
00:04:49,236 --> 00:04:52,489
The most beautiful letters you have ever read mom
60
00:04:52,694 --> 00:04:55,032
- Bye, my love
- You'll see. Bye. I love you
61
00:04:59,352 --> 00:04:59,909
Bye
62
00:05:01,446 --> 00:05:03,774
Bye little sister, take care
63
00:05:04,206 --> 00:05:06,016
Bye man
64
00:05:15,069 --> 00:05:16,273
Send me postcards
65
00:05:16,280 --> 00:05:19,070
Ok, stop it or I�ll start crying. Please
66
00:05:19,205 --> 00:05:20,632
Take care, ok?
67
00:05:21,497 --> 00:05:25,144
Just like Don Quixote had Rocinante and Saint Martin had his mule
68
00:05:25,405 --> 00:05:27,035
We have "La Poderosa"
69
00:05:27,049 --> 00:05:32,036
- Yeah, that pisses oil
- Yes, pisses oil, but what I�m trying to say is that
in this precise moment
70
00:05:32,103 --> 00:05:37,397
The young Fuser and myself are embarking in a trip
to the most remote places of the human spirit
71
00:05:37,642 --> 00:05:41,449
where we will meet new lands, listen to new anthems, eat new fruits...
72
00:05:41,522 --> 00:05:47,299
Granado... I�m making you responsible. If something happens to Ernesto I�ll find you.
Put on the handkerchief darling
73
00:05:47,980 --> 00:05:50,936
Don't worry mam, he will come back to become
the doctor we all want him to be
74
00:05:50,953 --> 00:05:52,281
It better be
75
00:05:52,616 --> 00:05:54,408
Ok, is time to leave!
76
00:06:14,002 --> 00:06:15,485
Animal!
77
00:06:21,356 --> 00:06:23,076
Careful with that bike!
78
00:06:36,809 --> 00:06:39,899
Dear mom... Buenos Aires is behind us
79
00:06:40,719 --> 00:06:42,178
behind is as also the miserable life
80
00:06:42,470 --> 00:06:45,104
the faculty, the exams and the dissertations that make you sleepy
81
00:06:46,690 --> 00:06:48,875
Before us lies all of Latin America
82
00:06:50,371 --> 00:06:52,134
From now on we will only trust in "La Poderosa"
83
00:07:14,270 --> 00:07:19,667
I wish you could see us. We look like adventurers
and inspire admiration and envy everywhere
84
00:07:33,067 --> 00:07:36,192
Go Mial. Assume aerodynamic road position
85
00:07:37,096 --> 00:07:40,050
C'mon baby, don't fail me baby.
C'mon, c'mon
86
00:07:41,459 --> 00:07:43,283
What happened Mial?!
87
00:07:51,123 --> 00:07:56,457
I'm glad to have left behind civilization, and be closer to the earth
88
00:07:58,174 --> 00:08:01,692
Wait, something is coming out... something is coming out
89
00:08:07,085 --> 00:08:08,850
Fuser, are you alright?
90
00:08:12,363 --> 00:08:13,983
What happened puppy?
91
00:08:20,291 --> 00:08:21,073
Are you alright?
92
00:08:22,539 --> 00:08:25,405
- What the fuck is that?
- What the fuck does it look like?
93
00:08:25,737 --> 00:08:28,449
- A fucking dog?!
- Oh fuck, you are a shitty driver...
94
00:08:28,791 --> 00:08:31,134
What the fuck is that dog doing on the bike?
95
00:08:31,417 --> 00:08:33,342
Is for Chichina and his name is Kamba
96
00:08:36,815 --> 00:08:38,000
Pick up the bike.
97
00:08:49,112 --> 00:08:53,753
Miramar, Argentina
January 13th, 1952
Km 601
98
00:08:57,540 --> 00:08:59,248
Where the fuck are we? Switzerland?
99
00:09:04,314 --> 00:09:06,739
- Good morning
- Good morning
100
00:09:07,073 --> 00:09:09,437
- Chichina?
- She's inside with the rest of the family
101
00:09:11,429 --> 00:09:12,639
That bike is giving you problems, uh?
102
00:09:16,347 --> 00:09:18,574
Esteban, please tell us about your trip
103
00:09:19,020 --> 00:09:23,172
It was great Don Horacio,
i had the opportunity to take a seminar in Cambridge
104
00:09:24,406 --> 00:09:27,426
and stay a couple of weeks in London,
a fascinating city
105
00:09:27,510 --> 00:09:30,440
- What a privilege!
- Yes it was
106
00:09:30,963 --> 00:09:33,615
- Esteban is getting his PhD soon, right?
- Yes
107
00:09:35,013 --> 00:09:37,219
- Medicine?
- No, Law
108
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,329
Ah, law
109
00:10:16,877 --> 00:10:18,202
Sorry.
110
00:10:37,124 --> 00:10:39,153
1, 2, 3, 4
111
00:10:40,802 --> 00:10:42,079
Is your turn, come
112
00:10:42,651 --> 00:10:44,570
I never saw a pig who wanted to dance, never.
113
00:10:46,713 --> 00:10:47,674
C'mon
114
00:10:48,408 --> 00:10:49,358
Knock it off!
115
00:10:51,628 --> 00:10:58,582
- With this hand... back... side
- What are you laughing at?
- I'm laughing at you.
116
00:11:05,996 --> 00:11:07,758
Tonight?
117
00:11:08,155 --> 00:11:10,880
My dad ask aunt Roxanna not to take her eyes off of me
118
00:11:11,242 --> 00:11:16,109
My mom promised the Lady of the Valley that she would
walk to her sanctuary if we broke up
119
00:11:17,562 --> 00:11:23,227
And your parents can't see that the more they bury the diamonds,
the more decided is the pirate to steal them?
120
00:11:24,580 --> 00:11:28,385
Believe me, this diamond wouldn't mind being stolen
121
00:11:31,978 --> 00:11:33,269
Dance
122
00:11:40,413 --> 00:11:41,404
Look
123
00:11:53,225 --> 00:11:54,736
Let me see your bathroom
124
00:11:59,646 --> 00:12:01,547
- Good night
- Good night ladies
125
00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:13,531
Aunt Roxanna, which room is mine?
126
00:12:24,697 --> 00:12:26,518
Get away Kamba!
127
00:13:10,740 --> 00:13:15,351
- How many days did you say we were staying here?
- You already know
- Two
128
00:13:16,101 --> 00:13:21,582
- And how many days have we been here?
- If you become a Doctor, will you operate with wire too?
- Six days, Fuser
129
00:13:25,967 --> 00:13:27,352
Someone will see us
130
00:13:45,745 --> 00:13:49,376
If you'd stay we could do many things, Ernesto,
but only if you'd stay
131
00:13:53,227 --> 00:13:54,617
I didn't like the sound of that
132
00:13:55,088 --> 00:14:00,553
- What do you want me to say? That I�m going to wait for you?
- I told you I�m coming back
133
00:14:02,124 --> 00:14:05,457
- Yes, i have the dog as proof
- You didn't like it?
134
00:14:07,902 --> 00:14:15,971
What do you want Ernesto, what do you want to hear?
That I�m going to wait forever,
that I�ll wait for months and months till you come back?
135
00:14:21,078 --> 00:14:26,529
- What's going on?
- What do you want? What do you want?
136
00:14:29,154 --> 00:14:32,279
I'd like you to stay like this forever. Quiet.
137
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,690
I want to look at you, cause I�m not going
to see you for a long time
138
00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:51,797
Of course I�m going to wait for you,
but please don't take an eternity
139
00:14:56,231 --> 00:15:00,760
- And how long is an eternity?
- That's slippery ground mister
140
00:15:07,229 --> 00:15:08,930
I'm not going to touch you
141
00:15:14,264 --> 00:15:22,817
Did i hit you? Did i hurt you? Did i hurt you?
That was a trick, a very bad trick
142
00:15:23,302 --> 00:15:27,573
Ok lovebirds... is time to leave.
Fuser
143
00:15:30,454 --> 00:15:34,952
Miss Ferreira...
Thanks for everything
144
00:15:54,617 --> 00:16:00,028
"I used to listen the bare feet splashing in the ship
"And had a feeling of the faces darkened by hunger
145
00:16:01,220 --> 00:16:03,732
"My heart was a pendulum between her and the street
146
00:16:05,021 --> 00:16:09,374
"I don't know with what strength i freed myself from her eyes,
"I broke away from her arms
147
00:16:09,726 --> 00:16:13,027
"She was left clouding with tears her anguish
"Behind the rain and the glass
148
00:16:13,855 --> 00:16:15,437
- Lorca eh?
- No
149
00:16:15,837 --> 00:16:17,797
- Neruda
- No
150
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,687
- Who?
- I don't remember
151
00:16:48,598 --> 00:16:50,853
- Good bye
- Bye
152
00:16:55,282 --> 00:16:57,113
Wait, wait. The snot is...
153
00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:02,214
And so... with Chichina, nothing...
154
00:17:04,445 --> 00:17:08,188
Not even after giving her the German shepherd with pedigree... nothing
155
00:17:09,565 --> 00:17:12,111
I mean, at least you saw a tit... one
156
00:17:15,813 --> 00:17:18,749
Ahhh... You saw her tits, Ernesto
157
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,114
Scalpel, Scalpel
158
00:17:24,901 --> 00:17:26,637
North American Dollars?
159
00:17:27,514 --> 00:17:30,430
- Fifteen
- Chichina?
- Yes
160
00:17:30,438 --> 00:17:35,029
I like that girl for you, i always said that she was your girlfriend.
We will eat better now
161
00:17:35,037 --> 00:17:36,756
- No...
- Protein food
162
00:17:36,791 --> 00:17:41,778
No, she gave me this money for when we get to the US.
She asked me to buy her some pants.
163
00:17:43,820 --> 00:17:45,466
I told her i would
164
00:17:46,397 --> 00:17:49,693
- What?
- Forget about this money. It is out of our budget.
165
00:17:50,268 --> 00:17:55,002
- Fucking moron, he is testing me...
- Che are you talking to the bike again
166
00:17:55,245 --> 00:17:58,911
Listen to me man, what is wrong with your head?
That chick's got you by the balls.
167
00:17:59,685 --> 00:18:02,251
Calm down
168
00:18:03,052 --> 00:18:04,641
- Good evening
- Hi
169
00:18:15,284 --> 00:18:20,559
Piedra de �guila, Argentina
January 29th, 1952
Km 1809
170
00:18:22,947 --> 00:18:27,120
- How do you feel the bike?
- The wire is making wonders, it works great
171
00:18:34,726 --> 00:18:36,714
- Son of a bitch... fuck
172
00:18:38,470 --> 00:18:39,898
Are you alright Fuser?
173
00:18:42,101 --> 00:18:43,411
It was the curve
174
00:18:45,530 --> 00:18:46,406
Son of a...
175
00:18:50,529 --> 00:18:52,940
Look at the pipe...
son of a bitch!
176
00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:55,533
Pass the stakes, I�m all out
177
00:18:55,568 --> 00:18:57,637
Wait, wait, don't fuck with me
178
00:18:58,512 --> 00:19:01,209
- You had to choose this place, you idiot...
- No you chose this place
179
00:19:01,288 --> 00:19:03,459
Hold that side
180
00:19:12,246 --> 00:19:13,929
- No... fuck
- Son of a...
181
00:19:16,128 --> 00:19:18,591
- The river is taking it
- Grab it, grab it
182
00:19:20,631 --> 00:19:22,110
It took it
183
00:19:32,887 --> 00:19:39,173
- Che and what if we go there?
- We should ask for help over here, with the common people
184
00:19:44,261 --> 00:19:48,906
- Which one are we doing? The broken headlight?
- No, Red October. You have the experience right?
185
00:19:53,906 --> 00:19:55,138
Good Night
186
00:19:56,812 --> 00:19:57,852
What do you want
187
00:19:58,134 --> 00:20:04,818
Maybe our appearance doesn't show it, but we are doctors
from Buenos Aires and C�rdoba, respectively
188
00:20:05,343 --> 00:20:17,896
We are traveling all over the country, doing some research
with hopes of curing some of the worst diseases of the 20th century
189
00:20:18,103 --> 00:20:23,586
Plagues that not only consume our energy but that also
keeps Argentina in need
190
00:20:23,912 --> 00:20:27,953
When by just reading the medical literature, you could notice, just as us...
191
00:20:28,194 --> 00:20:31,890
What the fuck do you want, pair of bums?
192
00:20:33,609 --> 00:20:39,215
Look sir, the wind took our tent, we are starving
and we need a place to spend the night
193
00:20:39,859 --> 00:20:46,097
Ok, out there in the shed there's a good ground.
You can sleep with the workers
194
00:20:46,335 --> 00:20:55,945
- We are doctors...
- Hmm... i like your face a lot, but i don't like yours fatty
195
00:20:58,157 --> 00:21:00,323
- Fine?
- Yes, its fine
- Thank you.
196
00:21:14,377 --> 00:21:21,890
Dear Mom... we are still hitting the road,
but to tell you the truth, the bike is less powerful every day
197
00:21:27,163 --> 00:21:31,201
San Mart�n de los Andes, Argentina
January 31st, 1952
Km 2051
198
00:21:32,909 --> 00:21:39,136
Money and food are scarce, but we manage to find opportunities
to eat and sleep for free
199
00:21:41,768 --> 00:21:45,166
Thanks to our secret weapon:
Alberto's infallible sweet talking
200
00:21:45,198 --> 00:21:49,461
...plagues that not only consume our energy but compromise
the modernization of Argentina
201
00:21:49,594 --> 00:21:59,270
- So, you are doctors
- Well, no. Alberto is a biochemist and I am an MD student
- He is practically graduated, we are like doctors
202
00:21:59,275 --> 00:22:05,309
- Then i would appreciate it if you could look at a swelling i have in the neck
- Gladly, eh... Mr.?
203
00:22:05,314 --> 00:22:06,273
Von Puttkamer
204
00:22:11,573 --> 00:22:12,605
Does it hurt?
205
00:22:16,508 --> 00:22:19,322
- This is a tumor
- What do you mean a tumor?
- Yes
206
00:22:21,170 --> 00:22:24,491
- Do you think so
- Yes
- Allow me
207
00:22:27,170 --> 00:22:31,281
I don't know Fuser, fat sedimentation
it could be a cyst
208
00:22:31,587 --> 00:22:37,537
No. It is a tumor in the occipital area
209
00:22:38,130 --> 00:22:41,786
- Schatzie, these gentlemen say i have a tumor
- Tumor?
210
00:22:42,152 --> 00:22:47,194
Good morning mam, i sincerely don't believe it is a tumor
but a sebaceous cyst
211
00:22:47,369 --> 00:22:50,460
If you could give us a place where we could
eat and sleep we might be able to treat it
212
00:22:50,514 --> 00:22:56,691
No, no look... we can't treat it. You will have to go
to Buenos Aires. I can recommend you a specialist
213
00:22:57,023 --> 00:23:02,612
- Or we could try to help him, don't you think?
- Help with what? With the grass, with prayers?
214
00:23:02,736 --> 00:23:08,342
- I understand, you can't do anything for me
- Yes we can, if you give us a place where we could eat and sleep.
215
00:23:09,094 --> 00:23:18,190
- Around here there's a lake with lots of fish and a shed
- Sir, the diagnostic is very...
- We have nothing more to talk about, doctors. Let's go Schatzie
216
00:23:22,507 --> 00:23:28,854
- The next time could you try to help us a little
- Of course i can give you a hand, but never at the price of the health of a man
217
00:23:29,133 --> 00:23:34,179
- Ok, let's say that you are right and the old guy has a tumor,
how the fuck do you tell him like that?
218
00:23:34,437 --> 00:23:37,204
Is the truth, if he can't handle it he can go to hell
219
00:23:37,205 --> 00:23:42,735
- You can't treat a patient like that, you can't
- The guy has a serious problem,
the sooner he looks into it the better
220
00:23:43,406 --> 00:23:46,781
That's the proper treatment, didn't they teach you that
at biochemistry school?
221
00:23:49,589 --> 00:23:52,157
Don't talk to me about proper medicine
222
00:23:53,089 --> 00:23:57,253
Nurse. First graduate and then talk.
You think you know everything, moron
223
00:23:57,939 --> 00:23:59,516
I'm going to look for food
224
00:24:00,221 --> 00:24:03,116
Duck! duck! duck!. Give me gun, move it! move it!
225
00:24:04,652 --> 00:24:06,099
Son of a...
226
00:24:11,245 --> 00:24:12,389
Great Mial...
227
00:24:12,628 --> 00:24:13,604
I hit it, man
228
00:24:15,149 --> 00:24:17,251
- How did you do it?
- I can't fucking believe it...
229
00:24:18,018 --> 00:24:24,546
Well, there's no other choice but to get in the water
and pick up dinner, no? Fuser, to the water to get the food!
230
00:24:24,657 --> 00:24:27,546
You are really crazy if you think I�m going to get in there.
Do you know how cold is that water?
231
00:24:27,550 --> 00:24:36,109
Yes, i know you are allergic to cold, water, hot and all that
but you know what, i am older, wiser and i shot the duck, so
you have to go
232
00:24:36,229 --> 00:24:39,903
- That shot came out of your ass, besides i have asthma
- Ok, you are right. If you can't I�ll do it
233
00:24:41,632 --> 00:24:44,775
- I didn't say i couldn't
- You can't or you don't want to
- I didn't say that i couldn't
234
00:24:45,375 --> 00:24:49,134
Or you don't want to and that is the same. Or you could give
me Chichina's fifteen bucks...
235
00:24:50,140 --> 00:24:52,350
...and we eat as God intended, c'mon.
236
00:24:52,726 --> 00:24:56,411
- Look if i get to find that fucking duck, I�ll eat it all by myself
- Ah! in the water, in the water, duck.
237
00:24:59,013 --> 00:25:02,807
- I'm going to get my balls frozen
- For the use you give them, Fuser...
238
00:25:07,228 --> 00:25:14,635
Good Fuser, good... bring on that duck with potatoes.
Is it cold Fuser? Hey! cold? Not over here.
239
00:25:17,869 --> 00:25:18,741
Duck
240
00:25:22,786 --> 00:25:27,052
- Are you feeling sick?
- No, I�m just perfect
241
00:25:29,612 --> 00:25:33,797
Bariloche Train Station, Argentina
3 days later
Km 2270
242
00:25:40,376 --> 00:25:43,155
Easy
243
00:25:43,531 --> 00:25:45,226
Fuser...
244
00:26:05,001 --> 00:26:10,905
Fuser, listen to me. Give me Chichina's fifteen dollars and let's
go to a hospital like the people
245
00:26:12,369 --> 00:26:15,353
If you say that to me again, I�ll throw up all over you.
246
00:26:59,082 --> 00:27:06,923
Dear mom... what is it that's lost when you cross a border.
Each moment seems to be split in two
247
00:27:07,155 --> 00:27:14,124
Melancholy for what was left behind and on the
other hand all the enthusiasm at entering new lands
248
00:27:14,852 --> 00:27:17,300
Frias Lake, Argentina
February 15th, 1952
Km 2306
249
00:27:17,612 --> 00:27:23,500
- Look Mial, Chile
- Chile! Viva Chile!
250
00:27:25,715 --> 00:27:29,620
- Is it your first time out of the country?
- Yes, of course
251
00:27:29,723 --> 00:27:31,539
You are almost a man, Che
252
00:27:33,688 --> 00:27:40,792
Look Mial, when we are old and tired of traveling, we
should come back and set a clinic on this lake
253
00:27:43,238 --> 00:27:44,919
That's a good idea
254
00:27:45,248 --> 00:27:47,901
Providing attention to everybody, if anyone ever comes
255
00:27:48,152 --> 00:27:50,234
Count on me, brother
256
00:27:50,939 --> 00:27:53,604
Hey, things are getting better Fuser, eh?
- Yeah
257
00:27:55,087 --> 00:27:58,868
- Hey, it is snowing
- No, is just frost
258
00:28:20,448 --> 00:28:27,328
- Help me
- On three, 1, 2, 3
- Done
259
00:28:36,296 --> 00:28:38,252
Go, go, go
260
00:28:43,805 --> 00:28:48,504
- Fuck is cold!
- Some summer, uh
261
00:29:05,754 --> 00:29:09,165
Che, you told me we would enter Chile like two conquerors.
Not on foot like a pair of losers
262
00:29:09,191 --> 00:29:11,275
If you don't like it, go fuck yourself Ernesto
263
00:29:11,344 --> 00:29:12,300
TEMUCO, CHILE
February 18th, 1952
Km 2772
264
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,326
What if we dump this shit that gives us so much trouble
265
00:29:15,028 --> 00:29:17,412
And go on foot through the whole continent, you genius
266
00:29:17,993 --> 00:29:23,368
Yes, we would see more and meet more people...
you would lose weight
267
00:29:24,147 --> 00:29:27,120
You sissy, but if with a couple of dollars from
Chichina this gets fixed immediately
268
00:29:27,418 --> 00:29:29,620
And again with the same thing. Forget about that money
269
00:29:31,421 --> 00:29:36,199
Ok, perfect. If you get that mad then go all the way to Venezuela
walking and leave me here alone with the boss's money
270
00:29:36,663 --> 00:29:40,391
Know what? I would get there in half the time and stop
meddling with other people business
271
00:29:40,580 --> 00:29:41,411
Fuck you bastard!
272
00:29:45,707 --> 00:29:49,215
"Uy, Ernestito, bring me the little Yankee pants
from Miami"
273
00:29:50,267 --> 00:29:54,295
Can't you see that you will never see them on or off?
You wanker!
274
00:29:57,206 --> 00:29:58,112
Fuser..
275
00:30:02,420 --> 00:30:03,744
You know what your problem is?
276
00:30:04,422 --> 00:30:07,198
Your fucking honesty.
277
00:30:07,317 --> 00:30:10,159
You should tell a lie from now and then to help us.
278
00:30:14,251 --> 00:30:17,922
- Hold it for a second
279
00:30:18,163 --> 00:30:23,263
- Hey, hey, what are you doing?
- Come, Come
280
00:30:31,809 --> 00:30:32,339
Thank you
281
00:30:35,031 --> 00:30:36,781
- What? Do you have "mate"? Thank you.
- It has sugar
282
00:30:37,258 --> 00:30:41,559
- Excuse me, what's your name?
- Teresa
- Teresa, Ernesto, nice to meet you
283
00:30:44,620 --> 00:30:48,868
- It would be nice as a souvenir, eh?
- A souvenir? I'll take back to Argentina
284
00:30:49,185 --> 00:30:54,945
-You are traveling?
- Yes we are traveling, we are the owners of that old bike
- A the big one over there
285
00:30:55,219 --> 00:30:57,325
- What are these?
- This is "malton"
286
00:30:57,519 --> 00:31:00,118
- And This?
- These are oysters
287
00:31:03,388 --> 00:31:05,638
Maybe next time, ok? next time...
288
00:31:09,929 --> 00:31:13,133
Austral Newspaper, 3 pesos,
Austral Newspaper, only 3 pesos
289
00:31:15,088 --> 00:31:18,342
Get informed about Chile and the world,
for only 3 pesos
290
00:31:23,921 --> 00:31:28,938
Yesterday evening, Temuco was honored by the arrival
of 2 of the most renowned leprosy specialists of Latin America
291
00:31:29,551 --> 00:31:34,530
- Dr. Alberto Granados from C�rdoba
- What do you mean "Granados"
- That's what it says
292
00:31:35,343 --> 00:31:39,917
Dr. Alberto Granados from C�rdoba and
Dr. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna from Buenos Aires
293
00:31:40,037 --> 00:31:43,724
They have embarked on an epic trip from their
homeland to the north point of Venezuela
294
00:31:44,101 --> 00:31:51,560
The charismatic adventurer scientists, experts in their field,
have treated three thousand patients in all the continent.
295
00:31:53,589 --> 00:32:01,462
They hope to complete their trip in a record time of
five months, just in time to celebrate the 30th birthday
of the youthful Dr. Granados
296
00:32:01,790 --> 00:32:04,864
- It says youthful, eh?
- Yes, and so i get informed too.
297
00:32:05,803 --> 00:32:06,890
Do you think it will work?
298
00:32:19,472 --> 00:32:21,697
Hello, good evening
299
00:32:23,147 --> 00:32:30,220
My friend and i have some problems with our bike
The direction is broken, the brakes are practically gone
and the shift box as always...
300
00:32:30,563 --> 00:32:32,346
And my backside is killing me...
301
00:32:32,719 --> 00:32:36,192
Let's see. I can fix the direction, the brakes and the shift box.
302
00:32:36,775 --> 00:32:39,694
But i can't do anything about your backside.
303
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:42,904
We don't have any money
304
00:32:44,689 --> 00:32:47,920
What? You don't have any money?
305
00:32:48,226 --> 00:32:52,084
When we get to Valparaiso we will receive some money,
when we have it we will send it to you...
306
00:32:52,353 --> 00:32:56,674
You know, i wouldn't want to be rude, but if you
don't have any money,
you have nothing to do here, so please...
307
00:32:56,715 --> 00:33:04,118
Excuse me the interruption, but if you help us right now you will
contribute to the bilateral relationships between our countries
308
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,490
If i understand correctly, you want me to fix it for free
309
00:33:06,682 --> 00:33:08,150
I think we are not making ourselves clear
310
00:33:08,549 --> 00:33:12,610
besides we can't expect everybody to know
who's who in the Latin-American medicine field
311
00:33:12,774 --> 00:33:19,435
- Please doctor, come on in
- Yes, precisely today there was an article
published on the paper...
312
00:33:28,322 --> 00:33:30,387
- Let me see... allow me
- Yes of course
313
00:33:35,633 --> 00:33:40,853
- Look Piedad, Tulio look...
314
00:33:41,501 --> 00:33:44,405
- Well the picture is not very good
- Yes we are not favorably depicted
315
00:33:44,721 --> 00:33:47,077
Look, is them...
316
00:33:49,444 --> 00:33:55,089
Gentlemen, for me it will be a great honor to fix your bike,
once i finish this card game with my wife
317
00:33:55,583 --> 00:33:57,207
Of course, there's no problem
318
00:33:57,242 --> 00:33:58,555
That's the main priority.
319
00:34:00,067 --> 00:34:05,095
Do you know that tonight there's a dance
and God willing, all the ladies of the town will be there
320
00:34:05,113 --> 00:34:05,813
Oh, what a shame.
321
00:34:07,124 --> 00:34:08,706
- Could you give me the paper back?
- Thanks a lot, you are very kind
322
00:34:08,900 --> 00:34:10,952
- I'll bring the bike over
- Please bring it over, we will fix it
323
00:34:26,813 --> 00:34:28,781
Could i have this dance?
324
00:34:36,499 --> 00:34:39,712
Cheers!
325
00:35:22,976 --> 00:35:24,976
You know, i was just thinking about you
326
00:35:27,215 --> 00:35:28,237
And why is that?
327
00:35:30,157 --> 00:35:32,296
You made quite an impression when i met you
328
00:35:36,964 --> 00:35:38,247
Thanks
329
00:35:43,563 --> 00:35:46,333
- Would you like to dance?
- No
330
00:35:47,684 --> 00:35:49,087
I don't dance
331
00:35:50,447 --> 00:35:56,088
My husband fell asleep, he's drunk.
I don't have a dance partner
332
00:35:57,703 --> 00:36:01,753
Well, if you teach me, yes?
333
00:36:18,579 --> 00:36:21,261
Hey, you finally remembered that you are a man?
334
00:36:22,381 --> 00:36:23,381
You had forgotten?
335
00:36:25,009 --> 00:36:29,838
It's been a long time since i danced,
but is coming back to me, is coming back...
336
00:36:42,370 --> 00:36:43,399
I can't dance here
337
00:36:48,801 --> 00:36:49,854
Would you like to keep dancing?
338
00:36:52,325 --> 00:36:53,834
Wouldn't you prefer to go out
339
00:36:55,911 --> 00:36:57,101
I would love to, yes
340
00:36:59,414 --> 00:37:00,778
Let's go
341
00:37:04,895 --> 00:37:06,940
- What's going on?
- No, we better stay
342
00:37:09,848 --> 00:37:10,759
Let me go!
343
00:37:12,124 --> 00:37:14,327
The Argentinean is leaving with your wife
344
00:37:14,462 --> 00:37:15,779
Let me go!
345
00:37:15,888 --> 00:37:17,507
Sorry, sorry... I�m sorry
346
00:37:17,542 --> 00:37:19,127
Argentinean mother fucker!
347
00:38:08,786 --> 00:38:10,049
Aren't you tired?
348
00:38:10,366 --> 00:38:11,268
No
349
00:38:11,679 --> 00:38:13,910
- Don't you want to switch?
- No
350
00:38:14,288 --> 00:38:15,477
Are you sure?
351
00:38:31,833 --> 00:38:34,047
Cows! cows!
352
00:38:35,767 --> 00:38:37,172
I can't Stop, I can't stop!
353
00:38:37,913 --> 00:38:39,178
The brakes don't work
354
00:38:39,655 --> 00:38:40,615
Fucking mechanic
355
00:38:56,227 --> 00:38:58,627
- Are you ok?
- Perfect, what do you want me to tell you Fuser?
356
00:39:06,102 --> 00:39:07,234
Shitty mechanic
357
00:39:38,174 --> 00:39:40,143
Is he your father?
358
00:39:41,706 --> 00:39:42,968
Yes
359
00:39:49,184 --> 00:39:51,042
Hey, that cow is going blind
360
00:39:54,432 --> 00:39:56,070
...for the shit it's going to see
361
00:40:09,059 --> 00:40:12,464
Los Angeles, Chile
February 26th, 1952
Km 2940
362
00:40:17,249 --> 00:40:19,099
We are 25 days behind
363
00:40:23,658 --> 00:40:25,654
Wait wait wait wait
364
00:40:29,048 --> 00:40:30,200
Hello
365
00:40:30,956 --> 00:40:34,226
There's a rumor that the Chilean women are the most
daring in all the continent
366
00:40:34,258 --> 00:40:38,343
Well, the rumors have no scientific support Dr. Granado.
We have to make a field test
367
00:40:41,201 --> 00:40:42,078
You didn't like them, really?
368
00:40:44,756 --> 00:40:45,538
Here they come
369
00:40:50,261 --> 00:40:51,310
Hello girls
370
00:40:51,711 --> 00:40:53,211
- Excuse us, the place is packed...
371
00:40:53,256 --> 00:40:57,722
- Can we sit with you?
- Yes, of course
- Thanks
372
00:40:59,876 --> 00:41:01,981
- How are you?... Ernesto
- He is Alberto
373
00:41:03,561 --> 00:41:04,779
- Miss?
- Jazm�n
374
00:41:05,031 --> 00:41:05,860
Daniela
375
00:41:06,517 --> 00:41:07,913
- Nice to meet you
- Nice to meet you
376
00:41:09,095 --> 00:41:11,724
- So are you Argentineans?
- How did you know?
377
00:41:12,495 --> 00:41:16,158
I don't know... the accent,
because you say "Che", i don't know
378
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,726
- Had you noticed that Che? i hadn't
- No me neither
379
00:41:22,109 --> 00:41:25,022
- Do you know what day is today?
- February 26th
380
00:41:25,875 --> 00:41:31,942
February 26th... we are going to seem like liars,
but it has been a year...
381
00:41:32,186 --> 00:41:33,779
A year? A year since when?
382
00:41:34,150 --> 00:41:37,483
- A year since we started this trip
- That's nice
383
00:41:37,870 --> 00:41:44,098
- Damn, one year and we don't have one cent to celebrate
- Wouldn't you like us to invite you a bottle of wine?
384
00:41:44,604 --> 00:41:45,985
- Wine?
- Yes...
385
00:41:46,446 --> 00:41:53,247
Lucho, bring a bottle of wine to our Argentinean visitors that
have made such an effort
386
00:41:53,751 --> 00:41:58,251
But ladies, please don't takes this the wrong way,
but i can't drink wine
387
00:41:58,598 --> 00:42:01,327
- But why, why can't you drink a little wine to celebrate?
- Exactly...
388
00:42:01,943 --> 00:42:07,216
- Well there is an old tradition in Argentina that...
- Please c'mon, don't...
- What?
389
00:42:07,431 --> 00:42:10,795
- I think they deserve and explanation
- Is adequate, yes
390
00:42:11,958 --> 00:42:20,489
Thanks Lucho... Well, there is a long costume in Argentina
that doesn't allow us to drink with empty stomachs
391
00:42:20,902 --> 00:42:27,576
And since we don't have any money at the moment, we can't
buy food and we must reject your generous offer
392
00:42:29,791 --> 00:42:38,614
Please, don't be like that... wait.
Lucho, could you bring us some empanadas
393
00:42:38,873 --> 00:42:41,008
- Do you like Chilean empanadas?
- I have never tried them
394
00:42:41,283 --> 00:42:44,314
- four, eight?
- They are really hungry. Twelve.
395
00:42:46,423 --> 00:42:47,306
I've always liked that number
396
00:42:47,404 --> 00:42:52,512
- I would really like to stay here
- Too bad we don't have a place to stay,
but we can sleep at the plaza
397
00:42:53,257 --> 00:43:00,208
Hey, but my father loves Argentineans.
I think he can help you
398
00:43:01,446 --> 00:43:03,788
He is the chief of the fire department,
so he knows a lot of people
399
00:43:03,823 --> 00:43:06,367
Wait, are you sisters?
400
00:43:06,658 --> 00:43:09,657
Yes, of course, you hadn't noticed? Look...
401
00:43:10,438 --> 00:43:11,310
They hadn't noticed.
402
00:43:12,473 --> 00:43:15,346
- The mechanic doesn't come back until tomorrow,
but the bike can stay here
403
00:43:15,347 --> 00:43:16,347
- Thanks a lot
404
00:43:17,526 --> 00:43:23,407
Guys, let me introduce you to two Argentinean volunteers
that will be staying here with you
405
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:30,538
- Let me introduce you to Dr. Che Skinny and Dr. Che Fatty
- Nice to meet you
406
00:43:30,782 --> 00:43:33,584
- Hey, would you like to see more of the town?
- Yes
407
00:43:34,504 --> 00:43:36,466
- But...
- Don't worry sir
408
00:43:36,829 --> 00:43:39,227
- Excuse me...
- Yes?
409
00:43:42,841 --> 00:43:45,321
I wouldn't like to bother you, but are you really doctors?
410
00:43:45,411 --> 00:43:47,418
- No
- Yes
- No
411
00:43:47,769 --> 00:43:48,876
I'm a biochemist
412
00:43:49,227 --> 00:43:52,578
- Could you visit a lady that is sick
- Yes, when you tell me...
413
00:43:53,343 --> 00:43:57,032
Could it be right now, cause she is really sick.
It's been a very long time since she saw a doctor
414
00:43:57,604 --> 00:44:00,595
Ok, let me pick up my things and we will go.
415
00:44:01,042 --> 00:44:03,633
Is nice to be faithful to the Hippocratic oath, Fuser
416
00:44:10,405 --> 00:44:11,528
Excuse me
417
00:44:18,211 --> 00:44:19,402
Look at my eyes
418
00:44:27,382 --> 00:44:28,595
I'm going to touch your neck a little
419
00:44:37,321 --> 00:44:38,656
Has she eaten?
420
00:44:40,556 --> 00:44:41,510
I don't know
421
00:45:09,725 --> 00:45:11,903
Look, Do�a Rosa, I�m going to leave you these pills
422
00:45:14,073 --> 00:45:15,763
Take one with each meal
423
00:45:17,115 --> 00:45:18,594
And one before bedtime.
424
00:45:19,875 --> 00:45:22,026
This will help you feel better
425
00:45:29,759 --> 00:45:35,372
Dear mom... I knew i wouldn't be able to help that poor woman
426
00:45:35,547 --> 00:45:39,184
That up to a month ago she had been serving
tables, panting like me
427
00:45:39,798 --> 00:45:41,483
Trying to live with dignity
428
00:45:43,404 --> 00:45:47,392
In those dying eyes, there was a humble
request for excuses
429
00:45:48,012 --> 00:45:52,729
And a desperate plea of consolation
that gets lost in the emptiness
430
00:45:53,321 --> 00:45:59,310
Just as her body will get lost very soon
in the magnitude of the mystery that surrounds us
431
00:46:05,947 --> 00:46:10,974
Fuser, you still haven't asked me how was the
field test with the Chilean sisters
432
00:46:11,918 --> 00:46:15,709
You know how i fear that you might become
the new sexual ambassador of Argentina
433
00:46:16,943 --> 00:46:19,487
Are you the two lazy asses that travel
on that piece of crap
434
00:46:20,805 --> 00:46:22,907
Her name is "La Poderosa"
435
00:46:23,338 --> 00:46:27,863
It was. But now we could name it The Dead One, The Paraplegic
436
00:46:27,999 --> 00:46:29,203
Oh yeah, why?
437
00:46:29,950 --> 00:46:32,640
What do you mean why? Because I�m
the mechanic, what else
438
00:46:32,723 --> 00:46:38,492
If you sell it per pound, you might obtain something,
but that piece of crap arrived dead here, really
439
00:46:53,808 --> 00:46:55,607
I'll be missing you Negra
440
00:47:04,285 --> 00:47:06,222
I'll take these, let's go
441
00:47:13,121 --> 00:47:14,674
What do we do? Should we go on?
442
00:47:15,431 --> 00:47:19,323
Yes, we go on.
You only reach 30 once in a lifetime
443
00:47:27,323 --> 00:47:29,675
You are really something
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna
444
00:47:30,491 --> 00:47:34,578
- If we change the dollars...
- No, don't even think about it
445
00:48:14,247 --> 00:48:16,116
We arrived at Valparaiso
446
00:48:17,465 --> 00:48:22,466
"I love Valparaiso. How much you encompass
and how much you irradiate bride of the ocean"
447
00:48:23,248 --> 00:48:25,420
"Even far away from your deaf halo... "
448
00:48:25,518 --> 00:48:28,884
- Federico Garc�a Lorca
- No
- No, it's Neruda
449
00:48:31,668 --> 00:48:35,101
Valpara�so, Chile
March 7th, 1952
Km 3573
450
00:48:48,453 --> 00:48:50,079
Thank you
451
00:48:50,718 --> 00:48:53,300
- From Chichina!
- Chichina, and the money?
452
00:48:55,232 --> 00:48:56,989
- Should i open it?
- Yes open it
453
00:48:57,957 --> 00:48:59,899
I leave you alone love bird
454
00:49:09,807 --> 00:49:11,355
How do i love you Celia de la Serna!
455
00:49:19,216 --> 00:49:20,416
What's going on?
456
00:49:24,976 --> 00:49:26,192
Fuser
457
00:50:19,573 --> 00:50:22,581
- Che, are you ready?
- Me?
- Yes you
458
00:50:23,067 --> 00:50:24,251
- Of course
- Let's go
459
00:50:24,376 --> 00:50:25,472
Right away sir
460
00:50:55,647 --> 00:50:59,865
Atacama Desert, Chile
March 11, 1952
Km 4960
461
00:51:06,028 --> 00:51:08,519
You know what, my plan was a lot better
462
00:51:12,483 --> 00:51:14,698
You are so fucking proud, at least answer me
463
00:51:17,466 --> 00:51:18,882
Do you want to go back?
464
00:51:19,544 --> 00:51:22,879
Go ahead...
I'll get to the mine and then I�ll tell you what it looks like
465
00:51:24,211 --> 00:51:26,737
Are you suggesting that i won't make it to the mine?
466
00:51:27,957 --> 00:51:30,845
If you can little doctor asthma, i can do it too
467
00:51:32,537 --> 00:51:33,252
Moron
468
00:51:34,448 --> 00:51:35,902
Oh, you want to win?
469
00:51:42,090 --> 00:51:43,959
Stop! Fuck!
470
00:51:54,022 --> 00:51:56,403
- Good evening, how are you?
- What's your name?
471
00:51:56,539 --> 00:51:59,041
- Ernesto
- Nice to meet you
472
00:52:09,999 --> 00:52:15,430
Yes, that's it, that's were we are from
473
00:52:17,620 --> 00:52:20,665
We didn't have much, just a dry and difficult land
474
00:52:21,573 --> 00:52:23,426
It belonged to his grandparents
475
00:52:23,965 --> 00:52:28,287
It was ours, until a landlord arrived and kicked us out
476
00:52:28,710 --> 00:52:35,951
- And that is what they call progress
- We had to leave our son with the family and travel to find job
477
00:52:36,387 --> 00:52:41,588
- Trying to escape from the police that wanted to catch us
- Why?
478
00:52:42,889 --> 00:52:44,968
Because we are communists
479
00:52:45,877 --> 00:52:49,200
We are going to the mine. If we are lucky I�ll find a job.
480
00:52:50,597 --> 00:52:53,693
Apparently they are so dangerous that they
don't care what party you belong to
481
00:52:56,735 --> 00:52:58,758
Are you looking for a job?
482
00:52:59,309 --> 00:53:01,125
No, we are not.
483
00:53:02,553 --> 00:53:07,561
No? And then why are you traveling?
484
00:53:11,101 --> 00:53:13,142
Just because
485
00:53:20,305 --> 00:53:26,637
Bless you, blessed be your travels
486
00:53:31,270 --> 00:53:32,609
Take this
487
00:53:33,072 --> 00:53:33,530
Thanks
488
00:53:36,945 --> 00:53:38,614
- Some "mate"
- Thanks
489
00:53:41,124 --> 00:53:43,765
Those eyes had a dark and tragic expression
490
00:53:45,985 --> 00:53:50,045
They told us about some friends that had disappeared
under mysterious circumstances
491
00:53:50,310 --> 00:53:53,346
And that apparently ended up in some
part on the bottom of the ocean
492
00:53:57,432 --> 00:54:00,187
That was one of the coldest nights of my life
493
00:54:01,694 --> 00:54:09,754
But meeting them made me feel closer to human kind.
Strange, so strange to me
494
00:54:19,284 --> 00:54:24,289
You... you too
You, the next one
495
00:54:34,911 --> 00:54:37,397
Move it, guys, move it
496
00:54:39,064 --> 00:54:42,415
Chuquicamata Mine, Chile
March 15th, 1952
Km 5122
497
00:55:02,789 --> 00:55:04,200
Move it, guys, move it
498
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,243
Get in the truck. The rest go to your homes.
Out
499
00:55:32,634 --> 00:55:34,673
You two, what are doing here?
500
00:55:35,778 --> 00:55:36,623
Nothing, we are looking
501
00:55:37,006 --> 00:55:39,716
Looking at what, this is not a tourist attraction. Out
502
00:55:40,427 --> 00:55:44,012
Can't you see that these people are thirsty.
Give them some water damn it.
503
00:55:46,224 --> 00:55:47,764
I will call security so they will arrest you
504
00:55:48,061 --> 00:55:49,261
Oh yeah. Why?
505
00:55:49,493 --> 00:55:53,301
Invasion of property. This is the property of the
Anaconda Mining Company
506
00:55:55,595 --> 00:55:56,579
Let's go.
507
00:56:01,283 --> 00:56:01,924
Son of a bitch
