Manina! It's me, Gerard. Do you remember? I found the amphora.
I remember! So you're the one who was making all those bubbles!
- Found anything? - No.
I've run out of air, my ears hurt and I swallowed some water. lt isn't Chianti!
- Where's Gerard? - Somewhere underwater.
- Perhaps he's making a fool of me. - What was that, boss?
I'll tell you someday. Come on, you must be hungry.
- How did you know it was me? - Your sun-bleached hair.
And your eyes. What a difference!
I'm 18. I recognised you once you took your goggles off.
I kept that white silk handkerchief you gave to me.
It's yellowed a bit over time. What are you doing back here?
I'm on the boat round the bay. A friend and I are looking for amphorae.
- He's interested in them. - Like the one you found?
Yes, do you remember where that was?
lt wasn't on this side of the island, it was that way.
- They're calling me. - I've got to go back to the lighthouse.
- How are your parents? - Very well.
My brother's left home now.
Come and see me on the boat.
Promise you'll come?
I promise.
It's on the other side, on the east coast towards Sardinia.
She remembers. We'll go and look there tomorrow.
I'd love to try diving with those.
- They're too heavy for you. - Wouldn't you like to dive?
No. I smoke too much, my lungs aren't up to it!
It's heavy but I don't care, I want to give it a try.
Once I've found what I'm after, we'll have the time to go diving together.
- Stay and have lunch with us. - I'm expected at the lighthouse.
Another time.
Come back soon.
She's a little island bird!
You see? Now I'm beginning to understand what I'm doing here.
I'll wait for you on the beach tonight.
- No, I won't be there. - I'll wait anyway.
