THE LOVERS OF THE ARCTIC CIRCLE

It's good for life
to have many circles,

but mine, my life,
has only gone around once.

And not all the way,
not to the most important part.

I've written that name
so many times inside.

And here, now,
I can't close anything,

I'm alone...

As a child,
with the world around me,

I felt protected.

But one cold afternoon,
after school,

something happened.

I knew nothing about girls.

Where do girls run to?

Why did she stare at me?

If she hadn't stared at me,
I'd have run

and caught the ball.

Or earlier,
if that boy's boot

had kicked well,

the ball would've stayed inside.

And I might have been in the goal.

Everyone would
have congratulated me.

But that didn't happen.

I like the cold. Do you?

The cold? No, why?

It has to be cold in winter
so you appreciate the spring.

I prefer summer, when it's hot.

Life has to have its cycles.

- Everything is born and dies.
- Not e verything.

What lasts fore ver?

Life is like that, implacable,

happy and sad.

Everything runs out in time.

Even love.

It's like gasoline.

You forget you're running low,
and you end up stranded.

You have to accept life's difficulties
with good humor,

because the y come and go.

The y can't last forever.

I'll be right back.

Forgive me, I'm not to blame.

Your mom and I are separating.

My baby...

I'll always love you.

And if the gasoline runs out,
I'll die.

AIR MESSENGER
LONG DISTANCE

How will this journe y end?

Any other questions?

Did you know

that an eight-year-old mind

asks an average
of 33 questions an hour?

I asked even more,
but always the same question.

So, any questions?

Otto.

May I go to the bathroom?

That's all you want to ask?

I think you have
a more important question.

Do girls ask
the same questions we do?

Well...

I think they ask
fewer questions.

Girls your age
are older than you.

Have you read the airplanes?

- Who wrote this?
- The yard is full of airplanes.

If I got this,
I'd be so embarrassed.

That's corny.

The same sentence is written
on all of them.

Very romantic.
That's life's big question.

I decided to talk to her.

First I'd ask her name.

Then I'd say I'm Otto,

and that it's spelled
the same backwards.

Otto!

Otto!

Otto!

Hi, my name's Ana.

I'll stay here
as long as I need to.

I'm waiting for
the coincidence of my life,

and I've had all kinds of them.

I could tell
my life story as a train

of coincidences.

The first and most important

was the worst.
It came

with a tragedy.

No.

My mother came for me

with the worst

news I'd e ver heard.

Don't cry anymore,
so that it won't happen!

That fucking car.

I said don't!

When I say don't, I mean don't.

Can you run back?
A few hours back, a life back?

It was my father's life.
If his daughter didn't run,

who would?

Where did that boy come from?

From my father's death?

I thought it was his gift,

to make up for dying so soon.

I even thought it was him...

I looked at his childhood photos.

There was no resemblance,

but that didn't matter.

As a child, I began to believe

that my father had gone
to live inside a boy my age,

but better looking than him.

Maybe I was sick
of seeing my mother cry.

Dry your e yes,
Daddy didn't die.

How did it happen?

When it's cold,
most things go faster,

or come sooner.

I mean coincidences.
I love it when it's cold.

I love it when it's cold.

One freezing day,
I read a question about love,

too lovely
to have been written by a boy.

I had to share it,
what could I do with it by myself?

Here, Mommy.

It's beautiful.

Who wrote it?

It's

from...

that man.

Oh, really?

If you don't want it,
I'll keep it.

What are you saying?

I love it.

It was him again.

That message

came from my father.

It's cold.

Very cold.

My name's Olga.

Mine is Alvaro.

The y shouted his name.

Otto!

He tells me to wait!

That kid is incredible!

What's wrong with you?

Stop being stupid.

He's soaked.

Don't take us home,
it's too far away.

I'll leave him with his mom.
She'll give him a bath.

Right, Otto?

Then I'll take them home.

Hey...

I'm here, I'm Ana.

Remember?

Say something.

My name's Otto.

You know your name?

No.
Well, yes...

Otto!

Yes.

And...

You can also read Ana

backwards.

- Of course.
- Great, it's a palindrome.

- You just realized that?
- Yes.

You just realized that?

My father used to say

that a palindromic name
gives you luck,

and it did turn my life around.

Mommy, I don't feel well.

What's wrong?

I don't know. I feel dizzy.

You know why I'm Otto?

Not now, Otto!

Fine, I'm leaving.

What?

I'm close to home.

I'm very stubborn.

I decided Otto spoke on the outside
and my father on the inside.

So I spent lots of time beside him,

speaking to my father
e very day in the afternoon,

without Otto hearing me.

Mommy's boyfriend is just for her.

You're the only father I have.
That's all I need.

- Goodbye, Otto.
- Say hi to your mother for me.

Goodbye.

See you tomorrow.

A kiss. If you hear me,
send me one too.

- Hello, Otto.
- Did you sleep well?

Very well.

I was so in love that the fact
that Ana was so strange

seemed to me
to be because of love.

You know
your dad's been promoted?

You didn't tell him?

He doesn't even know my job.

Well, now your father
will have a bigger office.

Your dad's got a lot of work.

Ana. You two
could talk once in a while,

you're like brother and sister.

No. I don't want a brother.

Nor I a sister.

You'll get used to it.

We're going to the new house.
You'll see it some day, Otto,

when we've settled in.
You can stay on the weekend.

The changes came suddenly.

Are you hurt?

No.

Shit!

Are you crazy?

You should have stopped!

I have kids in the car!

So what?

I'll have to leave the car here.

You'll have to take the bus.
You're old enough.

Different houses and buses.
I could only see her

on e very other weekend.

I couldn't sit still.

I wanted
to tell Ana I loved her,

and to know her feelings.

Ana, I love you.

My father needed time
to leave Otto and die completely.

You know why I'm named Otto?

One afternoon I finally
listened to Otto.

You be quiet.

When Guernica
was bombed,

my grandpa hid in the woods.

He met a German pilot
who had to parachute

when his plane broke down.

The German
was stuck up in a tree.

Your gun!

My grandpa told him
to throw down his gun.

The pilot did it.

So my grandpa helped him.

Then they shared
his last cigarette.

My name is Otto.

Otto.

Otto... the pilot.

The pilot said he'd
always be grateful.

My grandpa gave him his gun,

and the pilot gave him
the cigarette.

There was still a drag left.

My mother is German.

When my grandpa met her,
he told my father

that she was a gift
from that German pilot.

When I was born,
they named me after him.

Otto the pilot.
Of course.

Otto, it's late.

Your mother's waiting.

Why did he save his life?

He'd bombed his town.
He was a fascist!

If I'd been that German,

and my enemy had saved me,
I'd ne ver kill anyone again.

Why did you name him
after a nazi?

That question about love,
about the airplane,

had been written by Otto,
not by my father.

That pilot story is a joke, right?

One afternoon, I learned
Otto was in love with me.

I also want to fall in love.

I also want to fall in love.

That's the line

of the Arctic Circle.

Inside that line, in summer,

the sun never sets.

That's the midnight sun.

Isn't that strange?

I couldn't say a single word.

You're not listening.

Am I boring you?

I wish I were mute.
That way I'd have an excuse.

- It's Wednesday.
- I want to live here.

What did your mom say?

Nothing. She doesn't know.

- Are you crazy?
- She wouldn't have let me come.

Of course not.
I'm going to call her.

What's going on?

He says he's come to live here,

without asking
his mother or anyone else.

She has a right to say something.

Well, for a little while...

What now?

Don't fucking cry! I hate it
when you act like a victim!

Alvaro... calm down.

I don't know
why he wants to live here.

I didn't say "live".
It's just for a little while.

I'll put him on
if he wants to talk to you.

Mom, forgive me.

I'll come see you
every day after school.

Come to me tonight. Jump through
the window. Be brave.

Come on, kids.

Let's see your best smile.

Be brave.

Be brave.

Be brave.

Ana, I'm here.

Wake up.

Ana.

What do you think?
We have our family photo.

What a nice frame.

I already have a family.
I don't need another one.

Not many people can boast
of having two families...

- It's something to boast about?
- Yes.

We're an attractive family.

Mom, I'm here!

Get ready, we're going on a trip!

We're taking a train
to the mountains.

There's still one left.

I'll take great pictures of you.

Aren't you here?

You went shopping, right?

I'm going to buy film
and I'll call you later.

Come back soon!

Mom!

It's me,

Otto.

I'm back.

How about one of you?

That was the last one.

You look beautiful.

Thank you, my baby.

How could dad
stop loving you?

One can't understand these things.
The y just happen.

Your dad's a good man.
It's not his fault.

Yes it is.
And he's not good...

You say that
because you still love him.

No, now I only love you.

A son's love lasts
all your life.

I wish it would
have been you.

You've been very hard
with your father. Apologize, please.

I was going to do that...

until a second ago.

If you tell me
to apologize, I won't.

You can't say
"Please apologize".

"Please",
make my mother alive again.

All right, I'm sorry.

But I think you have to change.
You're too proud.

Forgive me, dad.
It was my fault.

Wait, I want to come.

You can't, I'm going
all the way down.

I know.

You'll jump off too soon.

You're going too fast!
Jump off!

Slow down, you'll kill yourselves!

Stay with them.
I'm out of here.

Otto, jump!
There's a cliff!

Why aren't I dead?

I don't know
how many lives I have left.

I wanted to

live them with my mom,

go back to her.

Ski upwards.

But... you're Ana.

Yes, my baby.

You want to be my mother?

That's impossible.

I remember the first time,
in the Arctic Circle.

It's hard to fall in love.
Wanting to isn't enough,

you have to hear it.

No one has a heart
like Otto's. I don't.

Today's Wednesday.

One night Otto came
to live at the house.

He left his mother

for me,

so he could see me every day...

and every night.

I love the smell of tobacco,

it reminds of the German Otto.

I'm sure he's still alive.

I'm glad your name is Otto.

You watch my mom,
I'll watch your dad.

I got close to him,

very close,
as close as I could...

to love him
like he loved me.

Otto!

Where's Otto?
He's not in his bed.

Shit, you've fallen asleep!

He must be outside,

in the yard.

No. I've looked all over.

Ana, wake up, it's 8.00.

Your brother's missing.
Do you know anything?

No.

I don't know about Otto.

And he's not my brother.

I can't wait anymore,
I'm going.

And your weird son?

Don't worry,

he probably went off
to his mom's house.

Mom.

Did you look under his bed?

Of course I didn't.

Why would I?

I heard snoring in his room.

Otto, it's 8.00!

We've been looking for you.

Try to do things
that we all can understand.

You always sleep here, naked?

You live with other people.

Don't I get a good morning kiss?

I've never felt sex like then...

when we enjoyed it together,

in the house, in secret.

And I've never had
such a red heart.

It's beautiful.
Your mother will love it.

- I think it's corny.
- Please, don't start.

Well, have you decided?

If it was another color,
it might be less corny.

Listen, Otto,
the best hearts are red.

What will you give me
for Christmas?

Snow.

All you want.

Have you got a phone?

No, but there's
a public phone outside.

I'll tell your dad
we're running late.

We've spent two hours
looking for your present.

Giftwrapped?

No.

He's going to wear it.

Your mom's coming.

Here.

Did you buy it?

Otto,

my patience has its limit.

Your father's in a bad mood.

I'd like a red heart, please.

Shall I giftwrap it?

Yes, it's for my mother.

Sure.

Any more hearts?

That's enough.

Can you lend me 1 .000 pesetas?

I may not
have enough for the taxi.

I like that,

brothers and sisters
helping each other.

Hello,

excuse me,

good e vening.

I'm Alvaro Midelman,
from Spanish Television.

Would you be willing

to audition for a job
as a news anchorwoman?

What?

I need a woman your age for

the evening news.

Sorry...

but I heard you talking
on the phone,

and...

It's just an audition,
you have nothing to lose.

Today

in Guernica, there took place
the ceremony of "official apology"

by representatives
of the German government

to the Basque authorities.

During the ceremony,
presided by the town's mayor,

the Ambassador, addressing
himself to the participants,

assumed for the first time
the responsibility for the bombing

of Guernica that caused
the death of 2,000 civilians

during the Civil War.

Ana, what you just saw
doesn't mean anything,

it's all perfectly

under control.

As your mother,
I ask you to keep the secret.

I'm good at keeping secrets.

Darling,

I promise I'll ne ver leave Alvaro,
the one at home,

this one's name is Alvaro, too.

That's strange.

So trust me,

I'll never leave you.

I'm a mother first of all.

Otto's mother died suddenly.

And he was never the same again.

Get out!

Get out!

Get out of here!

Get out!

Otto wanted to die...
and I went with him.

Otto, jump!

- You're going too fast! Jump!
- You'll kill yourselves!

Jump! Jump!

Otto, jump!

There's a cliff!

Otto!

Answer me!

Otto, don't die.
Do that for me.

We have to go to the lodge

- to get help!
- Go, I'll stay.

- No, Ana, it's too dangerous.
- I don't care.

Ana!

Come back here right now!

Ana!

Otto! We're looking
for Otto, goddamnit!

Stop. Stop, okay?

You're not dead.

So I won't cry.

No!

I found Otto!

Is he all right?

Yes!

Otto.

Are you all right?

Tell me you are.

Tell me you are.

You're Ana.

Yes, my baby.

Where's my mom?

No one knows.
That depends on you.

Otto didn't want to be
with me anymore.

His guilt was so big...

that it surrounded me, too.

Otto!

Where's your brother?

I don't know.
He hasn't slept with me.

Ana, no jokes.

Have you seen his room?

I looked under the bed.

And in the wardrobe?

Take a look...
With him, anything's possible.

I wished with all
my strength for him to be there.

Your son's gone.
Just what we needed.

Asleep.

Nude.

How long will you stay?

I don't know.

Ana.

Open up, please.

We only knew that Otto
had taken money from his dad.

A lot.

I want to talk to you.

What's wrong with you?
Ana!

You should see a psychiatrist.

Ana!

My mom wanted to leave Alvaro.

She said I should live with her.

I'd spent the money
I'd taken from my dad

and I took off.

I didn't want to live anywhere.

I remember, it was spring.

HELP WANTED

Excuse me, can I have a cigarette?

It's very strong tobacco.

I'll smoke anything.

PILOT WANTED
AIR TAXI - LONG DISTANCE

Thanks.

I know you.

Really?

Sorry, I don't know you.

You like coincidences?

Depends. There are
good and bad ones.

I was a student of Sofía.

- Ana.
- Javier.

You and Sofía are separated.

Yes.

There are no more
good coincidences.

It's my fault, I spent them all
too soon.

You're Otto's sister.

Yes.

Our names are palindromes.

You can never erase that.

My life was blind.

Having left Ana, I lost my destiny.

So I had to make up one.

Finland!

Fly at night and sleep
during the day.

What could I expect from that?

What are you doing here?

I came to pay you a visit.

I'm okay.

It's too late to be okay.

You came too late.
I don't want to see you.

Neither do I.

You don't?

I'm not here to see you.

Why did you come live here?
You destroyed me life,

are you happy?

What happened?

The y left.
The y left me alone.

You can see
I'm a nervous wreck.

Where are they?

I don't know.

What about Ana?

Somewhere...

She's living with a teacher
from your old school.

With who?

One who didn't know
how to help you

and who's now
screwing your sister.

The world's becoming selfish.

There are a lot
of bastards out there.

I see what you're like.

You've never seen anything.
Especially about me.

I'm your father, aren't I?

I'm sorry, Dad.

It's too late for that.

Everything's ruined here.

You're still in love with Olga?

Draw a person.

Who?

That's up to you.

Give me that.

Did you do that?

Who did it?

Here.

Who is it?

My mother.

She's beautiful.

Yes.
She died of love.

How can you die of love?

She was abandoned.

- Are you joking?
- She was German and she died

rinsing lettuce.

Ana, what a surprise!

How are things?

Same as always.
How's your teacher?

He's not my teacher.

Now I'm the teacher.

How's your mother?

Fine.

She says she wants
to go to Australia.

That's too far.

If you let her,
she'd go off the map.

We spent two weeks
in Portugal last summer.

How's Otto?

I don't know.
I suppose he's fine.

You know him.

He won't tell me
his address or his job.

He calls me every now and then,
or comes to visit.

If you'd gotten along
as brother and sister,

this house
would still be a home.

Lend me some money.

What happened?

I just left Javier.

I knew you would!
What will you do now?

- Disappear for a while.
- You have such bad timing.

We're leaving
for Australia next month.

- Bon voyage.
- Wait! Don't be so proud.

You can stay here
until we leave.

But it's rented after that.

No, Javier will look for me here.

Come to Australia with us.

- It's too far.
- Too far, too close...

There's always a problem.

What do you want to do?

I don't know. Leave.

Where to?

Lapland.

Ana, please.

You have to think a little.

You can't just leave a man
you've been with for four years,

living with him,
when you have nothing...

and you haven't made any plans...

That's right. You've always
been very practical.

You want to go to Lapland?

My father lives in Finland,
in a small town, Rovaniemi.

He has a cabin by a lake...

inside the Arctic Circle.

Next month,
the sun doesn't set at night.

It's the midnight sun.

It's another world.

You smoke too much.

I get bored watching
these disaster movies.

When you were a kid,
you loved air battles.

Fighters, bombers...
Remember?

I've changed a lot.

That much?

Completely.

Don't tell me
you're afraid of flying now.

Have you ever flown?

Yes,

and I'm not afraid of it.

I'm going home.

Come see me more often.

I'll come next week.

Oh, I forgot...

You got a letter last week.
It's on the table.

Who's it from?

There isn't a name on it.

Just an address in Finland.

663340 North - 025505 East

I recognized it all.

The airplane number,

the package number.
What amazed me most,

was that I'd brought it
in my own plane, unaware.

Who else would know?

I'll wait for you these nights,
watching the sun.

Be brave,
jump through the window.

Be brave.

The coincidence
we were waiting for.

Dad, I'm sleeping here tonight.

Fine, your room is still there.

The coincidence
we were waiting for.

I met the real Otto,

the German pilot
your grandfather saved.

Saving him was a good idea,

and so was sharing the cigarette.

He fled to Finland
with a Spanish woman.

You see?
He left the war.

They had a son, Alvaro,
my mother's boyfriend.

How about that?

There's something even better.

After leaving your grandfather,

Otto came across a farmhouse
that had been bombed.

There was a man
who'd been killed.

His daughter was crying.

He was all she had.

When she saw Otto, she ran.

He followed her.

Her name was
Cristina.

She was only 17
and she ran quickly.

But she fell down.

Otto looked at her,

and she felt
he was asking for forgiveness.

For everything.

It was true, because
Otto silently promised her

if she forgave him,
he would take her away

and always take care of her.

The cabin is here,

between the forest
and the lake.

Right at the Arctic Circle.

The y'II deliver food
to your house,

even in winter.

Talk to the people
in the village store.

I hope it's still open.

I haven't been there
since my wife died.

That was seven years ago.

Cristina.

She was Spanish, like you.

She looks young here.

Almost a child.

Yes.

She was only 17 years old.

She was my whole life.

There was something about him.

Something disturbing.

Why is your name Otto?

There's no explanation.

Life has many things like that...

Things with no explanation.

But Otto is a very common name

in Germany.

Are you German?

I'm Finnish now.

Only my name is German.

It's so geometrical...

Otto.

So is Ana.

I already realized that.

We can be read the same

forwards as backwards.

You want an explanation?

Yes.

Maybe there isn't one.

Maybe.

The same day my wife died,

I received a letter
from my son saying

that he'd fallen in love
with a Spanish woman.

Why?

I was with my mother that day.

I also received a gift.

And now

I have a lovely
Spanish grand-daughter.

You're here

thanks to Cristina.

I feel her hand in yours.

Thank you, Otto.

It's been a pleasure.

THE ARCTIC CIRCLE

I felt that something known

had entered into the unknown.

I'd arrived at the end
of someplace.

I had a premonition,

the first of many.

I felt the presence
of coincidence again.

So I thought it might be Otto.

I kept thinking about Otto,
I couldn't sit still

and wait.

One morning, I heard a car.

It was the mail truck.

I thought, "If I run, there
will be something for me. "

Something for me.

Something for me.

Hello, Ana.

Hello, Mom.

Australia is perfect
for starting a new life.

Forget the North
and come live near me.

The first thing
I want you to know is...

What?

I think of you a lot.
More e very day.

I've ne ver thought
about you so much.

You sound like someone's mother.

Your mother's becoming old...

and good.

It's about time.

Well that's great! Cool!

Alvaro's father wrote.
He's glad to know you.

He calls you his grand-daughter.
He's happy,

you've brought
the cabin back to life.

Awesome.

By the way, his name's Otto.
But you probably know that.

Of course.

Of course.

What you don't know
is that Otto's a pilot.

Which Otto?

That story about
the German pilot who...

That doesn't matter.
But your brother

took it so seriously
that he became a pilot.

We found out from
a Spanish friend who did

training flights with him.
We don't know where he flies...

What does it matter,
he's up with his head in the clouds.

Otto the pilot.
Of course.

Of course.

THE ARCTIC CIRCLE

How will this journe y end?

66º 33'...

2º 55' 5" East.

AIR MESSENGER
LONG DISTANCE

Tonight the sun won't set.

I have a hunch that plane
has something for me.

If not, then who for?

I'll stay here
as long as I need to.

I'm waiting for
the coincidence of my life,

the biggest one,

and I've had all kinds of them.

I could tell my life story
as a train of coincidences.

It's good for life
to have many circles,

but mine, my life,
has only gone around once,

and not all the way,
not to the most important part.

I've written that name
so many times inside...

And here, now,
I can't close anything,

I'm alone.

ANA'S EYES

What happened?

Translate this for me.

Don't worry.
That doesn't matter anymore.

There's someone here
who wants to see you.

There is? Who?

How did you get here?

With a parachute.

You were in that plane.

It's him, isn't it?

The German pilot...

that smoked with your grandfather?

Of course.

OTTO IN ANA'S EYES

You know how to ski upwards?

TO THE MEMORY OF MY FATHER.
