Saraband
|
00:00:52 |
Johan became a multimillionaire |
00:00:57 |
An old Danish aunt... |
00:00:59 |
who had been a renowned |
00:01:03 |
left him a fortune. |
00:01:08 |
Once he became financially |
00:01:17 |
He bought his grandparents' |
00:01:24 |
A run-down chalet in an |
00:01:32 |
Johan and I |
00:01:37 |
with each other |
00:01:42 |
Our daughters are far away, |
00:01:50 |
Martha lives in a home, |
00:01:53 |
sinking in the isolation |
00:01:57 |
I visit her now and then, |
00:02:02 |
And Sarah... Sarah married |
00:02:06 |
and then moved to Australia where |
00:02:13 |
They don't have any children. |
00:02:18 |
Me? |
00:02:24 |
I still practice my profession, |
00:02:30 |
Family quarrels and divorces mostly. |
00:02:42 |
I've been thinking I |
00:02:49 |
ONE |
00:05:32 |
I've been thinking... |
00:05:43 |
And now I'm here. |
00:05:48 |
He's sitting there, |
00:05:53 |
And I've been standing here, |
00:05:58 |
waiting, |
00:06:04 |
Maybe I should have ignored |
00:06:12 |
This trip. |
00:06:16 |
In fact, |
00:06:24 |
But here I am... |
00:06:29 |
And so I must decide: |
00:06:31 |
Slowly return to my car... |
00:06:41 |
or get close to him. |
00:06:45 |
Of course, I could stay |
00:06:53 |
and let my confusion abate. |
00:06:57 |
But not very long. |
00:07:08 |
This minute is taking its time. |
00:07:15 |
33 seconds... |
00:07:23 |
47 seconds... |
00:07:31 |
55 seconds... |
00:07:55 |
No! |
00:08:01 |
- Did I wake you? |
00:08:05 |
- Hi! |
00:08:11 |
- Typical, you were spying on me. |
00:08:17 |
We haven't seen each other in 30 years. |
00:08:21 |
- We simply lost track of |
00:08:26 |
People start together, |
00:08:28 |
then they separate |
00:08:31 |
- and finally silence. |
00:08:34 |
- ¿Was that a reproach? |
00:08:40 |
Then suddenly you call me |
00:08:45 |
- You didn't sound very keen. |
00:08:51 |
I still say no. I don't want this. |
00:08:57 |
- I had to come. |
00:09:01 |
- I won't tell you. |
00:09:06 |
Johan... |
00:09:09 |
I've driven 340 km.... |
00:09:12 |
and managed to find your hideout... |
00:09:16 |
in the middle of the jungle. |
00:09:18 |
Now that I've seen and kissed you |
00:09:24 |
That won't be enough. |
00:09:30 |
- At least you can stay over |
00:09:34 |
A week ago, |
00:09:37 |
that my ex wife was coming |
00:09:40 |
I can't tell her suddenly that there'll |
00:09:48 |
- Who's Mrs. Nilsson? |
00:09:52 |
Are you and her a couple? |
00:09:57 |
God forbid! |
00:10:04 |
The two of you live all alone here |
00:10:09 |
Mrs. Nilsson lives in |
00:10:12 |
She cleans and cooks |
00:10:20 |
- She's religious and mean. |
00:10:27 |
To be honest, |
00:10:33 |
I fear that she might want to marry me. |
00:10:39 |
She's made up the guest room, |
00:10:42 |
so you have to stay |
00:10:48 |
I suppose I better accept. |
00:10:52 |
It's so hard to get up from |
00:10:59 |
What's wrong, Johan? |
00:11:03 |
I'm trying to put |
00:11:06 |
Want to hug me? |
00:11:18 |
Damn, Johan! |
00:11:24 |
Old idiot! |
00:11:26 |
- And how old are you? |
00:11:32 |
- 86. |
00:11:38 |
Around 55. |
00:11:42 |
- I'm 63. |
00:11:50 |
And I've had my uterus |
00:11:58 |
- Does that trouble you? |
00:12:04 |
Let's sit on the bench. |
00:12:07 |
It's so beautiful! |
00:12:09 |
When beauty is revealed... |
00:12:14 |
Where is the source, the giver? |
00:12:19 |
- I didn't know you knew some psalms. |
00:12:24 |
And my grandfather rewarded me |
00:12:32 |
We can enjoy the view, |
00:12:35 |
- hold hands... |
00:12:39 |
- Didn't we used to do it? |
00:12:43 |
I haven't done it since... |
00:12:54 |
You really have |
00:12:58 |
Can you see the lake |
00:13:01 |
You can see the light reflected, |
00:13:08 |
I drove by the lake house |
00:13:13 |
You could say that. |
00:13:18 |
Yes, Henrik. Mi dear son. |
00:13:24 |
- Are you on speaking terms? |
00:13:28 |
I got a brief letter declaring that |
00:13:34 |
He and his daughter Karin have |
00:13:39 |
You don't have much contact then. |
00:13:43 |
Absolutely. A cordial conversation |
00:13:48 |
- Fat boy Henrik! |
00:13:54 |
- My God! |
00:14:01 |
- And his daughter Karin? |
00:14:06 |
Her mother died of |
00:14:12 |
- Anna... |
00:14:15 |
Anna and Henrik were |
00:14:19 |
He couldn't take her death. |
00:14:26 |
I heard they were happy |
00:14:30 |
He felt mistreated there. |
00:14:36 |
- Like you, at that age. |
00:14:40 |
Well, yes, I was a bit fed up |
00:14:47 |
My honorary doctorate |
00:14:50 |
finished all that. |
00:14:56 |
He directs an orchestra called |
00:15:01 |
But he'll quit that also. |
00:15:04 |
He must do something. |
00:15:06 |
I think he's writing a book. |
00:15:11 |
- What about the daughter? Karin? |
00:15:17 |
She'll audition for the |
00:15:20 |
Henrik is teaching her. |
00:15:22 |
They sit in the house with |
00:15:26 |
You could say she's beautiful. |
00:15:35 |
Yes. |
00:15:43 |
So...I know nothing |
00:15:52 |
- Sarah is in Australia. |
00:15:58 |
- Yes, Australia. - Well, she |
00:16:04 |
I get letters and |
00:16:09 |
She's fine. A good |
00:16:14 |
- Sarah's happy with her life. |
00:16:20 |
Martha's sinking further and further. |
00:16:29 |
She's no longer aware, in |
00:16:33 |
I understand... |
00:16:39 |
- And you? |
00:16:43 |
Though sometimes, I see myself |
00:16:46 |
and I think I'm in hell. |
00:16:49 |
Like I'm dead, |
00:16:52 |
But I'm fine. |
00:16:55 |
I've plagiarized my past now that |
00:17:02 |
Doesn't sound like fun. |
00:17:04 |
That's it, Marianne. |
00:17:07 |
And who the hell said |
00:17:12 |
- What does your "page of answers |
00:17:18 |
- I asked the question, didn't I? |
00:17:24 |
A stupid and totally senseless life. |
00:17:29 |
Is our marriage part |
00:17:35 |
- To be honest, yes. |
00:17:40 |
An old priest once told me: |
00:17:43 |
"A good relationship has two elements: |
00:17:47 |
a good friendship |
00:17:51 |
Nobody can say that |
00:17:58 |
- Good friends. |
00:18:03 |
- You were unfaithful. - I... |
00:18:09 |
- It's so sad. |
00:18:12 |
- It's still painful. |
00:18:16 |
No, I suppose not. |
00:18:20 |
- Dearest Marianne. |
00:18:25 |
Yes, it's what I say. |
00:18:32 |
Holding hands, |
00:18:36 |
- Without talking about painful things. |
00:18:44 |
Dinner! Mrs. Nilsson |
00:18:51 |
Johan, I need to wash up |
00:19:10 |
This was a mistake! |
00:19:13 |
TWO |
00:19:25 |
Are you Karin? Do you want |
00:19:30 |
Your grandfather and Mrs. Nilsson |
00:19:39 |
I'm Marianne. I was your granddads |
00:19:45 |
- I know. |
00:19:54 |
If you want, you can help me |
00:19:59 |
Here's a knife. |
00:20:05 |
If you want to talk, we'll talk. |
00:20:11 |
You must know Henrik, |
00:20:14 |
Can't say I do. I've just greeted him, |
00:20:20 |
- Mom is dead. |
00:20:24 |
- She died two years ago. |
00:20:31 |
- Dad retired and is spending his time |
00:20:38 |
He's writing about |
00:20:42 |
- You also play the cello? |
00:20:49 |
- Your father is the teacher |
00:21:02 |
What's wrong? |
00:21:06 |
Do you know Hindemith's |
00:21:10 |
I don't know anything about music. |
00:21:14 |
Dad wants me to play it |
00:21:18 |
- It's too hard! |
00:21:21 |
How were you in the days |
00:21:27 |
A premenstrual monster. |
00:21:30 |
I would go to sleep as an angel, |
00:21:38 |
My mind gets shattered. |
00:21:42 |
Dad is a morning person. |
00:21:47 |
And I yawned. |
00:21:50 |
We were working on |
00:21:56 |
That damned Hindemith wrote: |
00:22:00 |
"Lebhafte Viertel ohne jeden |
00:22:07 |
- You know? |
00:22:12 |
So I sat there with my |
00:22:18 |
I begged him to let me off |
00:22:23 |
He made me play the same part |
00:22:28 |
Finally I said. quietly: |
00:22:34 |
I said that it wasn't a class, |
00:22:39 |
Henrik was also angry, |
00:22:42 |
try from the beginning, where it says: |
00:22:46 |
"Lebhaft, sehr markiert... |
00:22:50 |
I was so angry that I couldn't. |
00:22:56 |
I said that he didn't have the |
00:23:01 |
Dad is the most patient, sensitive and |
00:23:08 |
He said it had nothing to |
00:23:12 |
but rather with willpower |
00:23:15 |
and that I was lazy. |
00:23:23 |
Then I got up and left the |
00:23:30 |
I said that it was enough for the day |
00:23:45 |
He turned pale. |
00:23:52 |
And he said: |
00:23:57 |
I put my boots on and |
00:24:03 |
I didn't hear him approach, |
00:24:08 |
You're not leaving! |
00:24:15 |
You're not leaving! |
00:26:12 |
I sat and cried. |
00:26:16 |
And I said: "Never again, |
00:26:23 |
...never again". |
00:26:26 |
And kept crying |
00:26:34 |
Then I thought of coming over to see |
00:26:39 |
leave that lunatic. |
00:26:46 |
Now the old man can take |
00:26:53 |
send him to the farm, |
00:26:57 |
or kill him. |
00:27:07 |
Then I became aware that |
00:27:16 |
I know nothing about my life, |
00:27:28 |
Then I realized |
00:27:34 |
and I can't ask her anything. |
00:27:39 |
I was overcome with sorrow for |
00:27:56 |
You must think I'm a very |
00:28:03 |
- Do you think Henrik is suicidal? |
00:28:11 |
In an extreme situation like |
00:28:16 |
could he hurt himself? |
00:28:19 |
You know, to be honest, |
00:28:26 |
I only know that deep |
00:28:31 |
If not, mom never... |
00:28:35 |
Mom loved him, you know? |
00:28:41 |
And I suppose I was |
00:28:48 |
That's what I think when I'm feeling sorry for |
00:28:55 |
Why can't I feel love |
00:29:04 |
Were you afraid your dad would |
00:29:09 |
I never gave his |
00:29:14 |
But I tried to take care of mom, |
00:29:21 |
Mom was never very talkative. |
00:29:28 |
But on one of her last days... |
00:29:31 |
She was always drowsy |
00:29:37 |
On one of her last days, |
00:29:45 |
she looked at me and said clearly: |
00:29:50 |
"You know I love you". |
00:29:55 |
"You know I love you, Karin". |
00:30:04 |
My mother never spoke that way. |
00:30:10 |
Dad once said as a joke, |
00:30:14 |
"Anna never says I love you, but |
00:30:26 |
- What if grandfather comes back? |
00:30:48 |
- Were you really married to grandpa? |
00:30:54 |
It's hard to imagine it. |
00:31:00 |
Good question. |
00:31:03 |
- Did you love him? - I've asked myself |
00:31:09 |
- Was he so difficult? |
00:31:16 |
Then we got divorced. |
00:31:20 |
an idiot named Paula. |
00:31:24 |
I got married again to |
00:31:30 |
One day, he just flew away. |
00:31:35 |
They never found him. |
00:31:42 |
For some reason, Johan and I |
00:31:47 |
Then I found out |
00:31:52 |
another lady, |
00:31:57 |
I was angry and hurt |
00:32:02 |
I suddenly realized, |
00:32:05 |
that I was the most cheated on |
00:32:11 |
Johan was remarkably and |
00:32:18 |
- You mean that my grand father |
00:32:23 |
And he used to write poems. A volume got |
00:32:30 |
- My grandfather used to write verses? |
00:32:37 |
- Did you keep them? |
00:32:39 |
But did you love him? |
00:32:48 |
I was terribly naive. |
00:32:53 |
Nowadays, I suppose it's just |
00:33:00 |
and so know-it-all like I was. |
00:33:09 |
I think I loved him. |
00:33:17 |
- You never suspected? |
00:33:23 |
- What made you come here |
00:33:32 |
You still love him! |
00:33:38 |
If you had to be honest, |
00:33:48 |
I hear people say Johan |
00:33:56 |
not very kind things usually. |
00:34:00 |
But I don't know the Johan |
00:34:06 |
I always thought he was a good man. |
00:34:14 |
It was so easy to hurt him, |
00:34:26 |
I believe that Johan... |
00:34:31 |
is a moving person. |
00:34:37 |
He's moving. |
00:34:41 |
- Are you crying? |
00:34:46 |
Are you crying for granddad? |
00:34:54 |
- I'm crying for Johan |
00:35:06 |
This is strange. |
00:35:20 |
Dear... |
00:35:26 |
- What will you do? |
00:35:30 |
- Is that intelligent? |
00:35:35 |
I'll stay here a few more days. |
00:35:42 |
I will. |
00:35:53 |
THREE |
00:36:14 |
It can't happen again. |
00:36:17 |
- Never again. |
00:36:21 |
We must have a serious talk. |
00:36:23 |
We both know how things are. |
00:36:31 |
I'm glad it's so simple! |
00:36:36 |
I was scared to death. |
00:36:38 |
There's no other way to put it: |
00:36:43 |
- Do you understand? - I'm very |
00:36:55 |
- Are you asleep? |
00:37:18 |
Once I had a similar |
00:37:25 |
We weren't married yet, |
00:37:32 |
Maybe I was a little drunk. |
00:37:39 |
the damned university, |
00:37:43 |
my colleagues, |
00:37:46 |
And then about my father, |
00:37:53 |
Anna didn't say a word. |
00:38:01 |
I remember thinking... |
00:38:04 |
"What's on Anna's mind, |
00:38:12 |
"What's she thinking? Maybe |
00:38:21 |
And then she said it. |
00:38:25 |
"When you're like this, |
00:38:27 |
I start thinking that you're |
00:38:36 |
Then she went to the living |
00:38:41 |
I tried to stop her. |
00:38:44 |
but a message got through |
00:38:48 |
It said "I'm leaving... |
00:38:54 |
Then I said, with a voice that was |
00:39:06 |
"Nobody leaves me" |
00:39:14 |
"Nobody turns his back on me |
00:39:23 |
I sat on the floor and |
00:39:44 |
I shut my eyes and thought: |
00:40:02 |
But then I heard her |
00:40:07 |
She was making coffee. |
00:40:13 |
But she didn't say a word. |
00:40:22 |
She didn't say anything for the rest |
00:40:31 |
Anna was the silent type |
00:40:39 |
But we didn't need to speak; |
00:40:47 |
I begged her to forgive me. |
00:40:50 |
Like a child to his mother: |
00:40:57 |
It's just what I want to say to you, |
00:41:04 |
Anyone can say "I'm sorry", |
00:41:12 |
So no further words |
00:41:18 |
It became a... |
00:41:30 |
Anna sunk into a deep sleep: I |
00:41:39 |
I watched her, a street light |
00:41:46 |
I gazed at her for a long time and |
00:41:52 |
how much I loved her. |
00:42:05 |
Between Anna and me it was a question |
00:42:12 |
An ownership that was... |
00:42:22 |
There's no better word. |
00:42:29 |
I fell asleep as dawn approached, |
00:42:34 |
we got up, had breakfast |
00:42:39 |
I went to a class |
00:42:51 |
This is an explanation: |
00:42:56 |
I have no excuses. |
00:43:04 |
If you leave me... |
00:43:08 |
Ill be ruined, or some other |
00:43:14 |
In due time, you'll have your freedom. |
00:43:18 |
With professional teachers |
00:43:27 |
It'll be different for me also. |
00:43:39 |
These months with you have |
00:43:48 |
For me, that is, |
00:43:53 |
It was kind of you |
00:43:58 |
I don't know what to say. |
00:44:04 |
We don't have to |
00:44:18 |
Sometimes I feel a great |
00:44:50 |
FOUR |
00:44:52 |
About a week later, |
00:45:01 |
"Kierkegaard, S. |
00:45:21 |
- Am I interrupting? |
00:45:27 |
It's been a long time. |
00:45:33 |
- How are you? |
00:45:41 |
At 60 there's 6 things wrong with you, |
00:45:45 |
It's a good evaluation: Of course, |
00:46:07 |
- I heard about your ex wife's unexpected visit. |
00:46:12 |
She's always known I |
00:46:18 |
- Maybe I can see her. |
00:46:22 |
I don't know if you'll be |
00:46:27 |
- I don't mean to disturb you. |
00:46:36 |
What do you want? |
00:46:45 |
I need 890,000 kroner. |
00:46:50 |
- You need money again. |
00:46:54 |
- That you haven't even begun to pay back. |
00:46:59 |
I'm sure I'll never |
00:47:03 |
It's funny to |
00:47:08 |
If humiliating me amuses you, |
00:47:11 |
I'm not paying rent |
00:47:19 |
We've been there for five months |
00:47:26 |
But you were able |
00:47:28 |
It's a loan. |
00:47:33 |
When he returns in October, |
00:47:40 |
- How's the book going? |
00:47:47 |
That's a thorough answer. |
00:47:53 |
I've been here ten minutes, |
00:47:58 |
If I didn't need the money, |
00:48:03 |
You can leave now. |
00:48:20 |
It's not for me. |
00:48:26 |
I see... |
00:48:32 |
Are you trying to make her stay? |
00:48:35 |
Do you think she'll accept a bribe? |
00:48:39 |
I wonder how Anna |
00:48:43 |
Don't bring Anna into this. |
00:48:47 |
Don't you dare mention |
00:48:52 |
I like you more or dislike you |
00:48:58 |
There's a healthy dose of |
00:49:16 |
It's like this: |
00:49:19 |
There's a cello I can buy Karin; |
00:49:24 |
It's an excellent instrument, |
00:49:28 |
Karin has a special talent, |
00:49:36 |
I took care of her instruction, |
00:49:38 |
but her talent calls for more. |
00:49:44 |
Her German cello is passable, |
00:49:48 |
but she'll audition |
00:49:52 |
Are you sure it's good? |
00:49:56 |
It wouldn't be the first |
00:50:00 |
It has an authenticity certificate |
00:50:02 |
- and the seller is decent. |
00:50:10 |
He's old and sick and can't |
00:50:16 |
- He said it's perfect for her. |
00:50:40 |
Dad, where does all this |
00:50:47 |
Speak for yourself. When you were |
00:50:56 |
You had been very ill and your |
00:51:02 |
I told you I knew I had been a bad father, |
00:51:10 |
And you screamed. |
00:51:15 |
Bad father?! |
00:51:20 |
Then you said you could |
00:51:26 |
Honest hate must be respected; |
00:51:33 |
But I couldn't care less if |
00:51:40 |
If it wasn't for Karin, |
00:51:45 |
you wouldn't exist at all for me. |
00:51:51 |
There's no hostility here, I swear. |
00:51:56 |
Give me the name and number |
00:52:25 |
- Here you are. |
00:52:39 |
- What's your answer? |
00:52:46 |
Can I go? |
00:52:51 |
I'm leaving. |
00:52:56 |
- Can I just say one thing? |
00:53:06 |
That tale of an argument |
00:53:15 |
Poor Anna. |
00:53:19 |
Will you hit me now? |
00:53:27 |
FIVE |
00:55:22 |
I hope I'm not interrupting. |
00:55:26 |
No, I've just finished. |
00:55:32 |
The organist is expecting: |
00:55:37 |
- I thought you played the cello. |
00:55:42 |
In my time, |
00:55:46 |
There were a lot of churches |
00:55:50 |
What were you playing? |
00:55:51 |
A Bach sonata for a trio. |
00:55:58 |
- It was beautiful. |
00:56:06 |
Nobody knows how it ended up here, |
00:56:13 |
A few weeks ago, Karin and I |
00:56:16 |
It was almost full. |
00:56:19 |
- Will you be playing any more concerts? |
00:56:22 |
Karin has to prepare her audition |
00:56:27 |
Yes, I'm writing a book about |
00:56:35 |
I met Karin. |
00:56:41 |
She's considered exceptional, |
00:56:45 |
- Are you her teacher? |
00:56:50 |
In the conservatory, she'll |
00:56:55 |
- Won't it be difficult to let her go? |
00:57:04 |
You could say that. |
00:57:07 |
- Do you love her a lot? |
00:57:11 |
- I'm sorry. |
00:57:19 |
- Karin is like Anna. |
00:57:24 |
What's wrong? |
00:57:31 |
Whenever I mention Anna, |
00:57:37 |
I can't help it. |
00:57:41 |
She's been dead for two years and |
00:57:50 |
That's the way it is. |
00:57:59 |
Life itself has become a ritual. |
00:58:06 |
I don't know, I can't find |
00:58:11 |
I've become a handicapped person. |
00:58:15 |
Just like that. |
00:58:25 |
Karin is everything that |
00:58:30 |
And so... |
00:58:35 |
It wouldn't have much |
00:58:48 |
I think a lot about |
00:58:53 |
I think: |
00:58:58 |
One day I'll walk through |
00:59:04 |
A foggy, windless autumn day. |
00:59:10 |
Absolute silence. |
00:59:16 |
Then I see someone |
00:59:22 |
Coming towards me. She's |
00:59:28 |
A blue jacket... |
00:59:32 |
She's barefoot and her hair |
00:59:38 |
And she's walking towards me. |
00:59:44 |
Anna is walking towards me, |
00:59:54 |
And then I realize I'm dead. |
01:00:00 |
Then something strange happens. |
01:00:04 |
I think: "Is it this easy?" |
01:00:10 |
We spend life thinking about |
01:00:18 |
And then it's so easy. |
01:00:25 |
I can see a flickering light |
01:00:34 |
- I think I understand. |
01:00:38 |
- We're good cooks. |
01:00:44 |
I have to go now, |
01:00:49 |
Karin gets angry |
01:00:52 |
- See you soon. |
01:00:58 |
- I understand. The old man |
01:01:02 |
- Why did you come here? |
01:01:11 |
You're a lawyer, right? |
01:01:18 |
- Why would you want to do that? |
01:01:27 |
He's probably mummified |
01:01:32 |
I asked him for an advance on my |
01:01:39 |
I'd love to sue him. |
01:01:41 |
Not while he's |
01:01:44 |
- He's not ill in that sense. |
01:01:49 |
Are you here to ask for money |
01:01:56 |
Don't get angry. |
01:02:00 |
You haven't had |
01:02:04 |
I'm not here to ask for money. |
01:02:08 |
Are you fucking? |
01:02:12 |
Do you hate him so much to |
01:02:16 |
Forgive me for desecrating this |
01:02:26 |
I hate him in all possible |
01:02:30 |
I hate him so much, I would like to |
01:02:36 |
I'd visit him every day, |
01:02:45 |
Maybe I'm just a pathetic |
01:02:53 |
I see surprise and displeasure |
01:02:57 |
As a lawyer, |
01:03:01 |
the stupidity and repulsiveness |
01:03:08 |
Goodbye, Marianne. It was nice |
01:03:16 |
Sometimes I think I'm insane. |
01:05:20 |
SIX |
01:06:43 |
- Karin! |
01:06:50 |
- Well... this is my study. |
01:06:56 |
You and Anna would come sometimes, |
01:07:02 |
- You used to smoke then. |
01:07:07 |
I stopped when I read |
01:07:10 |
33 operations for a mouth cancer. |
01:07:14 |
- And even then he couldn't stop smoking. |
01:07:19 |
Unless you consider |
01:07:24 |
- That's a beautiful picture of mom. |
01:07:31 |
I had it blown up... |
01:07:38 |
I think of mom every day. |
01:07:44 |
I thought the pain would subside. |
01:07:50 |
But it doesn't hurt like in the |
01:07:57 |
Like a part of me. |
01:08:03 |
I can say I miss her, |
01:08:09 |
We didn't see each other very often, |
01:08:16 |
Anna tried and tried. |
01:08:19 |
But Henrik and I never |
01:08:23 |
- You wanted to speak to me? |
01:08:28 |
Last night, Mrs. Nilsson came |
01:08:34 |
Meaning that dad shouldn't... |
01:08:36 |
That was all right. |
01:08:38 |
He's in Uppsala with his orchestra. |
01:08:42 |
I have here a letter that came a |
01:08:49 |
- Have you heard of Ivan Chablov? |
01:08:58 |
He toured here recently with |
01:09:02 |
I've known him since my years in |
01:09:10 |
"Johan, my dear friend and brother". |
01:09:15 |
"Sorry for writing in my |
01:09:21 |
"but my excellent secretary |
01:09:24 |
has just had twins". |
01:09:30 |
"It's very important that I |
01:09:36 |
"For the following reason:" |
01:09:40 |
"On a free night, I went to a |
01:09:46 |
"I must say I was |
01:09:51 |
"A young female cellist was playing... |
01:09:56 |
"a Zoltan Kodaly solo piece." |
01:10:01 |
"And I was surprised by that |
01:10:07 |
-"Her maturity, her skill |
01:10:16 |
"The school gave me her name..."" |
01:10:19 |
"and told me her father |
01:10:22 |
"I got in touch with him, |
01:10:27 |
"maybe arrogantly is a better word." |
01:10:32 |
"My dear Johan, |
01:10:36 |
her grandfather."" |
01:10:38 |
"And that's the reason why |
01:10:43 |
"The young lady's technique is |
01:10:49 |
"which could result in |
01:10:56 |
"I'm a guest professor at |
01:11:03 |
"One of the best in Europe." |
01:11:06 |
"I have a good rapport |
01:11:09 |
"And we could, after |
01:11:15 |
"offer our young cellist |
01:11:23 |
that her talent |
01:11:30 |
Let me know your answer as soon |
01:11:38 |
So, Karin, what do you say? |
01:11:42 |
that I'll take care of all your |
01:11:50 |
I've spoken to the cello seller: |
01:11:56 |
More than he was asking for. |
01:11:59 |
So if you want it, it's yours. |
01:12:02 |
Assuming, of course, that you |
01:12:09 |
I don't know what to say. |
01:12:15 |
I understand this letter puts |
01:12:21 |
- I'll write him and tell him |
01:12:26 |
But that your decision |
01:12:31 |
- Others? |
01:12:37 |
I need to rest. |
01:12:40 |
Thanks for the chat. |
01:12:47 |
Marianne used to say that I was |
01:12:51 |
That I didn't understand emotions. |
01:13:01 |
Your mother lived |
01:13:04 |
to do the most unbearable chore. |
01:13:06 |
Darkness got even darker... |
01:13:09 |
and light faded away |
01:13:12 |
It's hard for Henrik. To live. |
01:13:15 |
You're like your mother. |
01:13:19 |
And I'm fond of you, Katja. |
01:13:24 |
- Goodbye, Karin. |
01:14:36 |
SEVEN |
01:15:37 |
- To Henrik from Anna? |
01:15:47 |
May 18. Anna... |
01:15:51 |
wrote it one week |
01:15:54 |
I'd like you to read it. |
01:16:01 |
I can't understand Anna's handwriting. |
01:16:07 |
I'll try. |
01:16:20 |
Mom had found out a |
01:16:23 |
that she didn't have |
01:16:27 |
She wrote the letter because |
01:16:29 |
and wasn't allowed to visit her. |
01:16:34 |
It says: |
01:16:39 |
"The fact that you can't |
01:16:43 |
a relief for both". |
01:16:46 |
"We understand each other well. |
01:16:52 |
"I make an effort. |
01:16:56 |
"But I still see in your |
01:17:08 |
This is the difficult part. |
01:17:13 |
- She writes about dad and me. |
01:17:18 |
Yes. |
01:17:22 |
When you were with |
01:17:25 |
did you speak about |
01:17:29 |
- No, never. |
01:17:44 |
"Dear Henrik, I have to tell you |
01:17:53 |
"I've wanted to talk |
01:17:57 |
"But it was never necessary |
01:18:04 |
"Then I got sick |
01:18:09 |
"Of course I was there, |
01:18:17 |
"You and I love each other. |
01:18:27 |
"But no love is strong enough... |
01:18:30 |
to stand a devastating |
01:18:38 |
"I see that you love Karin, but that |
01:18:45 |
"It's good that you were her |
01:18:52 |
"When I'm no longer there, |
01:18:57 |
"I know that Karin loves you". |
01:19:02 |
"But you mustn't use her love. |
01:19:10 |
"That could be a permanent wound". |
01:19:16 |
"That's why I ask |
01:19:22 |
"You shouldn't take |
01:19:27 |
"Don't take advantage of her because |
01:19:36 |
"Dearest Henrik". |
01:19:40 |
"You're so sensitive, |
01:19:47 |
"I know it, without a doubt, |
01:19:54 |
"But you must be careful |
01:19:59 |
with the orphaned love that will remain |
01:20:08 |
There's more, |
01:20:14 |
I can't. |
01:20:19 |
I can hear my mother's voice! |
01:20:29 |
Karin... |
01:20:32 |
Why did you reach out to me? |
01:20:37 |
- You're very involved. |
01:20:43 |
- And you know about granddads |
01:20:48 |
I don't expect advise, |
01:20:54 |
I believe things will |
01:20:58 |
Go ahead, speak. |
01:21:03 |
- Mom saw. |
01:21:10 |
And everything she warned |
01:21:15 |
- I can't accept grandfather's |
01:21:22 |
If I leave Henrik, he'll die! |
01:21:26 |
If I leave him, he'll die... |
01:21:31 |
He doesn't even have |
01:21:36 |
He can go on with his music, |
01:21:41 |
and dad will not be part of |
01:21:50 |
I can't leave him. |
01:21:56 |
I know all the things |
01:22:03 |
But mom is dead, and Henrik |
01:22:08 |
How do you think I'd feel with the |
01:22:16 |
My future and Henrik's |
01:22:23 |
- At least you say "for now". |
01:22:32 |
- I want you to know that I don't |
01:22:50 |
- Anna's love... |
01:22:58 |
Isn't it? |
01:23:06 |
I don't know. |
01:23:09 |
EIGHT |
01:23:21 |
- Back already? - There wasn't |
01:23:26 |
- Hi, dad. |
01:23:35 |
What score is that? |
01:23:38 |
Bach's suites for cello! |
01:23:43 |
Listen, Anderberg suggested |
01:23:46 |
play a concert in November. |
01:23:51 |
- It's very hard for me. |
01:23:56 |
- What do you mean together? |
01:24:02 |
You'll play the parts you can handle |
01:24:06 |
Especially the prelude. |
01:24:12 |
- Which parts can I play? |
01:24:17 |
- It takes a lifetime to tame them. |
01:24:24 |
- And my audition? |
01:24:28 |
And students get permission |
01:24:32 |
I've spoken to Börtz. |
01:24:35 |
It'll be good for the both of us, |
01:24:45 |
I won't even be the first |
01:24:50 |
- Dad! You must be furious! |
01:24:56 |
But now I'll have |
01:24:59 |
- I can help you better. |
01:25:08 |
That doesn't sound |
01:25:14 |
Hello, Katja, darling. |
01:25:31 |
I have a feeling an |
01:25:42 |
- What's wrong, Katja? |
01:25:49 |
That is, I think I know, |
01:26:27 |
I know you've talked |
01:26:32 |
- And with the bitch, I mean Marianne. |
01:26:38 |
- I see. You did it beautifully. |
01:26:45 |
- I thought you had already done that. |
01:26:49 |
Really? I mean, |
01:26:56 |
Dad... |
01:27:00 |
I thought, "Dad knows |
01:27:15 |
Perhaps you've already made |
01:27:21 |
Will you accept your |
01:27:34 |
- Have you read this? |
01:27:39 |
- You read the letter that mom |
01:27:44 |
But it was for me! |
01:27:49 |
Do you think that's all right |
01:27:55 |
If you're going to get so upset, |
01:28:00 |
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. |
01:28:03 |
- I said I'm sorry, damn it! |
01:28:08 |
Shall we get to work? |
01:28:22 |
Dad... |
01:28:24 |
It'll be painful. |
01:28:27 |
For you or for me? |
01:28:29 |
It may sound stupid, |
01:28:32 |
I've made up my mind. For the first |
01:28:39 |
- But are you sad? |
01:28:47 |
If you had told me you |
01:28:52 |
If you had let me read it, |
01:29:00 |
You never told me... |
01:29:11 |
- Well, that's the way it is. |
01:29:20 |
Next week, I'm going |
01:29:25 |
She and I will be going to a school |
01:29:31 |
Claudio Abbado will come in |
01:29:42 |
It's for young people from all over Europe. |
01:29:50 |
Abbado will work with us for six weeks |
01:29:56 |
Emma recorded a video. She sent it |
01:30:03 |
We played Brahms. |
01:30:06 |
Emma and I |
01:30:09 |
which says the school accepts us. |
01:30:15 |
That we're welcome. |
01:30:19 |
And that... |
01:30:23 |
That's exactly |
01:30:29 |
And it's exactly what |
01:30:35 |
And the conservatory? |
01:30:46 |
- How long is the Hamburg course? |
01:30:53 |
Then there's a paid internship in |
01:30:59 |
Three years. |
01:31:03 |
- How will you pay for it? |
01:31:10 |
- You've been thinking a lot. |
01:31:15 |
That you had already decided. |
01:31:25 |
God... |
01:31:29 |
Oh God... |
01:31:37 |
But dad, I don't want to... |
01:31:43 |
I want to play in an orchestra, |
01:31:50 |
Not sit down in a stage, |
01:31:55 |
I don't want strangers to say |
01:32:01 |
I want to decide my own future. |
01:32:07 |
I want to be... home. |
01:32:14 |
Not a poor substitute for mom... |
01:32:17 |
who gets your praise |
01:32:22 |
It has to end. |
01:32:27 |
And now it's ended. |
01:32:36 |
At least, |
01:32:40 |
What are you talking about? |
01:32:51 |
Wouldn't you like to |
01:32:56 |
- Right now? |
01:34:16 |
NINE |
01:34:20 |
He's here. |
01:34:26 |
Thank you. |
01:34:30 |
- Can I ask who it was? |
01:34:35 |
Henrik tried to commit suicide. |
01:34:39 |
Then he cut his arms |
01:34:44 |
He's in intensive care. |
01:34:46 |
Call this number and |
01:34:51 |
- God. - They found him |
01:34:56 |
A certain Mrs. Berg |
01:34:59 |
- and saw a naked person |
01:35:06 |
The door was unlocked. |
01:35:09 |
She tried to wake him up, |
01:35:14 |
And bleeding. The ambulance |
01:35:20 |
I should call Karin, |
01:35:27 |
Henrik systematically fails at everything. |
01:35:35 |
- Say something, for God's sake. |
01:35:40 |
- Whatever. Say something spontaneous |
01:35:48 |
Sometimes you act like |
01:35:51 |
in some stupid old movie. |
01:35:54 |
- You're not real. |
01:36:00 |
- Right now... no, let's leave it. |
01:36:06 |
Where did you gather |
01:36:10 |
I didn't remember you like this. |
01:36:12 |
- Disdain? |
01:36:15 |
I don't know. Any disdain |
01:36:20 |
I don't know. |
01:36:26 |
- And the poor boy? |
01:36:31 |
Ah, Henrik. Maybe he realized |
01:36:38 |
I was never like him. So ridiculous |
01:36:44 |
He surrounded me with a sticky love. |
01:36:51 |
He was as dedicated as a dog. |
01:37:04 |
- What will happen now? |
01:37:09 |
- She'll blame herself. |
01:37:16 |
- Do you think she'll return home? |
01:37:23 |
- You'll speak to her, won't you? |
01:37:28 |
I'll hire you as my agent. |
01:37:33 |
Money is no problem. |
01:37:35 |
As long as you put her |
01:37:39 |
What if she comes? |
01:37:45 |
- That would be disastrous! |
01:37:58 |
What can I say? |
01:38:03 |
I was so close to Anna. |
01:38:07 |
It was terrible when she left. |
01:38:12 |
Even though I was on the |
01:38:21 |
It's incomprehensible that Henrik... |
01:38:24 |
had the privilege |
01:38:28 |
And that she loved him. |
01:38:34 |
- You're smiling ironically. |
01:38:39 |
I'm not smiling. |
01:38:46 |
There's no reason for you to cry. |
01:38:48 |
There is, but I won't |
01:38:56 |
TEN |
01:40:40 |
Marianne. |
01:40:43 |
Marianne! |
01:40:48 |
It's all right. |
01:40:53 |
- What's wrong? Johan? |
01:40:59 |
- I think it's anguish. |
01:41:09 |
- I see! You're sad! |
01:41:14 |
It's worse. It's an anguish |
01:41:21 |
It's trying to make way through |
01:41:24 |
my eyes, my ass. It's like a huge |
01:41:38 |
I'm too small for this anxiety. |
01:41:41 |
Are you afraid of death, Johan? |
01:41:43 |
More than anything, |
01:41:46 |
What can you do with a baby |
01:41:52 |
- Come, lay by my side. |
01:41:58 |
- We've slept in smaller beds. |
01:42:03 |
It doesn't matter. Not in |
01:42:08 |
I have to take off my shirt. |
01:42:13 |
Come on. |
01:42:21 |
You take it off too. |
01:42:24 |
Yes |
01:42:58 |
Come on, Johan. |
01:43:08 |
There... lie down. |
01:43:24 |
- Good night, Marianne. |
01:43:45 |
Could you explain why |
01:43:49 |
- I thought you were calling me. |
01:43:54 |
- I had it in my head. |
01:43:59 |
I understand your not understanding. |
01:44:04 |
- How long will you stay? |
01:44:10 |
- November? |
01:44:17 |
- Good night, again. |
01:44:25 |
Perhaps you're asking |
01:44:30 |
I stayed with Johan |
01:44:34 |
Our time together |
01:44:39 |
We almost never talked about |
01:44:45 |
The last night we celebrated. |
01:44:48 |
Nothing out of this world, |
01:44:52 |
We promised to remain in touch. |
01:44:56 |
I think we even fantasized |
01:44:59 |
the next spring. |
01:45:02 |
That trip never |
01:45:05 |
But we used to speak on |
01:45:13 |
Then, one day Mrs. Nilsson |
01:45:18 |
She said that Johan |
01:45:22 |
but that he would write. |
01:45:25 |
I asked if he was all right; |
01:45:31 |
That he was just tired and |
01:45:35 |
I never got a letter, of course. |
01:45:39 |
I wrote him, but never got an answer. |
01:45:43 |
That's all I know. |
01:45:47 |
Things are always all |
01:45:50 |
Everything in its place. Maybe I'm a |
01:46:01 |
Sometimes... I think of Anna. |
01:46:07 |
I wonder how she |
01:46:19 |
How she spoke... |
01:46:25 |
How she moved... |
01:46:29 |
Her look... |
01:46:33 |
That almost surreal smile. |
01:46:42 |
Anna's feelings. |
01:46:48 |
Anna's love. |
01:46:59 |
Well... |
01:47:03 |
Something happened to me that |
01:47:13 |
When I came back, I visited |
01:48:51 |
But I thought about |
01:48:59 |
that for the first |
01:49:08 |
I realized... |
01:49:15 |
that I was touching my daughter. |
01:49:20 |
My baby. |
