Good morning.

Hello.

What are you doing here?

I am a tourist.

This is not a tourist place.

We must ask you to come with us in the car.

No! I did not do anything! Leave me alone!

Calm down!

Woman!

If you want to help me, it has to be now.

They are looking for me.

What did you do?

I knocked out the power lines.

-So it's you? -Yes.

This is the 5th time.

-You are in this alone? -Yes.

Do you want to make me an accomplice of this vandalism?

I'm not a criminal,

I'm trying to stop crimes against us.

Where does your family come from?

My name is Halla,

I am the daughter of Benedikt Sigurosson.

My grandmother is from here.

So...

you're from Eyvik's family.

I know your family.

So you're Bensi's daughter...

What I have done,

I believe from the bottom of my heart that it's right.

Woman!

Bark!

Woman! Bark!

They saw your trail on the heath heading down here.

They're going to send the bloodhounds,

so you are not invited to stay.

I can't spare the Jeep.

I can lend you this one.

You give it back to me when you can.

Before the next Independence Day.

You have to get a feel for the clutch.

I can say I stole it.

It's up to you.

Thank you for your help.

We don't talk about it much around here,

but probably my father was not his father's son.

Your grandfather, Sigudur from Eyvik,

was a man of extremes like most of his kin

and stepped in for a few husbands around here.

So you and me could be second cousins.

Really!

So thank you, cousin.

Alleged cousin.

Let's see if this will be of any help.

Woman!

Stay.

Authorities have acknowledged that the repeated outages

are the result of organized sabotage.

Yet, no one has claimed responsibility so far.

Porbjorn Goslason, shift manager at the smelter:

Was there less damage this time?

Yes.

But it's very expensive to run it on oil,

still it's better than the cooling of the metal.

That would be a huge loss.

According to our sources, a man has been arrested

following the outage.

A foreign male was brought in for questioning.

So sorry, darlings, I'm late.

Mea culpa.

Have you warmed up?

Great! Let's start with a small spring song

to heat up the soul.

So, dear friends.

'The land of flora and the land of my brother'.

There's a difference. Learn it.

A small break, I need to make some copies.

Baldvin, can you help me?

'Baldwinner' all the time.

Not bad to have a ministry man for the paperwork.

What was the helicopter doing there?

Some accident at Laugarvatn. I didn't know.

-This was too close. -I know.

You have to stop now!

The Americans will monitor the highlands from space.

They've ordered a satellite and thermal cameras.

The lines will be monitored.

When is the satellite expected?

I don't know. One week, maybe Jess.

Can it see through clouds?

That's not a chance you can take.

Your mission is accomplished. The Chinese have withdrawn.

They have just postponed. They are still here.

It's just diplomacy. They consider the country unsafe.

It's not just between Iceland and China,

there is more at stake.

Rio Tinto is threatening to sue for billions.

You don't need to go on!

It's all over the media, everybody is freaking out.

And you?

And me what?

Are you taking your medication?

Yes... no. I'm cutting down to 25 mg.

It's going fine.

Listen,

you don't get what is going on...

They've got generators now.

The next time I need to bring down the pylons

for some real damage.

We have to finish the plan.

Now the whole world is watching,

it's the perfect time for your manifesto.

And then you stop.

If they catch you now, they will silence the whole thing.

I'll think it over.

Think? There's nothing to think about!

I know these people,

I'm surrounded by those psychopaths all day long.

I know how they think,

don't underestimate them.

Is it connected to the internet?

No. I checked.

Baldvin, it is secure.

I know what I'm doing.

You can never be sure.

Are you ready?

Yes.

We flip the page.

Cool car.

Yes.

You know who owns it?

No, no idea.

These are criminal activities

and these organized crimes against the Icelandic nation

will be met with full force.

The negotiations with the Chinese are momentarily on hold.

The government is determined

to continue its industrial development.

The government's statement has

attracted the attention of the media.

In Germany they speak about the Green Army and the BBC...

-That's great! -It's ecstasy.

It's scandalous

that the government isn't admitting this is sabotage.

It's an attack on the heavy industry in Iceland.

Nobody will want to invest in our industry in the future.

Climate change is proceeding too fast.

The life style of the human race is pushing us to apocalyptic ends.

It's a natural disaster.

Only dinosaurs...

The simple fact that there is more water in circulation now...

that during the past 70,000 years

and that's just a tiny part of our problem.

Amsterdam, Copenhagen and London face an uncertain future.

#, landslides...

Hello!

Speaking.

Yes, good afternoon.

A letter? No, I haven't received any letter.

I had made an application, but it was 4 years ago.

I'll double-check the mail.

Let me see...

Wait, I'll check in another place...

Oh, my God.

A girl...

Yes, I have it here.

I have to note it down. Tomorrow morning?

Yes, I will remember. At 11?

And so...

How old is she?

So, 4 years old... Yes, it's written here.

Okay.

Yes.

Thank you. See you.

Yes, I have to look at this...

I haven't thought about it for 4 years now.

You don't have much time to think it over.

We need an answer soon.

If you're not adopting, we need to find another candidate.

Yes, I understand.

So much has changed since then.

Here is the folder with all the information

from the Ukrainian institute.

If you accept, you need to provide the following papers:

a recent criminal record, a bill of health

and a statement

that you are still single.

Yes, it's still the case.

So we need a new signature

from your back-up custodian.

The form is right here.

Presumably it's still your sister?

Yes.

And you will still be her back-up

if her application goes through?

What?

She also has an application pending.

You both applied at the same time, if I recall?

Yes, nothing has changed, but I'm not so sure...

-I can't answer for her. -I understand.

Very well. So here it is...

You have a photo of the little girl,

and some information.

She's from the Donetsk region, from a town called Drouj...

kivka.

She lost both her parents in the war.

She was found with her grandmother,

who had been dead for some days.

So there is

some trauma that needs to be taken care of.

But she is clearly a little hero.

Okay.

You are free to go.

And welcome to Iceland.

Where is this?

It's Reykjavik?

Very good.

Now we lie back.

And we release all the weight of our body

to Mother Earth.

I need to talk to you.

Me too. In a bit.

We relax...

We breathe in the light.

We breathe out.

We trust...

I'm waiting in the garden.

I'll come in 5 minutes.

-Can I begin? -Yes.

They changed the rules.

The rules have changed,

and a little girl is waiting in Ukraine.

We are not too old in Ukraine. Not anymore.

How wonderful!

I knew something was happening.

I've been dreaming of you lately, as if something

very important was going to happen

and now it has happened.

My dear Halla,

you're going to be a mom.

You too, we applied at the same time,

you must be next in line.

I also have big news for you.

I've been accepted into the Maharishi Ashram in India.

-What? With the gurus? -Yes.

I'll have the guidance of Tony Nader,

I will be away for two years.

Totally secluded from the world.

You're joining a convent?

You could say that.

But we...

You are my back-up custodian.

I can be the auntie abroad until I come home.

What's her name?

You have a photo?

She's holding a flower.

She looks just like you.

And you.

She looks just like us.

Her name is Nika.

She's alone in the world.

She lost everything in the war.

Her mom, her dad, her grandma.

Nika, daughter of Halla.

It's just that...

It's all so complicated now.

What do you mean?

What is complicated?

Tell me.

I think I need help.

We all need to find our own path.

My journey is an inner one, to face myself.

Your journey will be to Ukraine to this little girl.

Will you sign the form again?

What?

The papers saying that you are my back-up custodian.

-Of course I will sign. -But you don't need anyone else.

You know that you can do it.

You're the mom and nothing will stop you.

What did Mom always say?

Say it.

Moms can do anything.

No, the other thing.

Find solutions.

Exactly.

THE ALUMINIUM SMELTER OUT OF POWER

FOREIGN TERRORIST OPERATION?

THE CIA HELPS THE POLICE

A NATION KEPT HOSTAGE

DECLARATION

Are you looking for something?

No, nothing special today.

You're always welcome.

Goodbye.

I've got to run. See you later.

You're always welcome.

I declare that I'm solely responsible for the sabotage

enacted upon the country's power lines.

The world will know that heavy

industry in Iceland will be costly...

DECLARATION

'I declare...

'that I'm solely responsible...'

'that my actions are only aimed at...'

Okay.

'The acts of sabotage

are a crime against humanity...'

Good.

'The driving force behind these hellish acts is not democratic.'

No!

Come on!

This is the birthplace of the republic,

the cradle of our democracy.

But, maybe our president...

can explain this better.

Yes. Yes. Uh...

So,

this is the place where the Vikings used to come...

once a year, and...

exchange uh... information, and uh...

make new friends.

Like Facebook.

And then the chieftains would come...

the godars.

And... and... but the chieftains...

they did not have any power...

except when they stood in a ring...

a ring of power,

like uh... Lord of the Rings.

And then they could decide the new laws...

and execute criminals,

a bit like the general assembly of your Trade Party.

'I urge everyone to rise up

'and use their ingenuity

'to cause damage to these enterprises.

'That's the only thing those psychopaths,

'those global multinationals, can understand.

'That's how they operate,'

'with threats and sabotage against nature and society.'

-It's over? -No, it's...

I got a signal.

Keep on.

'The sabotage against our nature causing atmospheric warming

'is a crime against humanity and all life on Earth.

'The globalized industry

'is the force behind this suicidal charge'

'that not even democracy can stop.'

It's incredible.

'But there are laws...'

You're skipping something.

'There are laws above human laws,

'ancestral laws which will not be stricken out tomorrow.

'It's our indisputable right to protect the lives

'of future generations.

'We are the most powerful generation ever

'and we are also the last generation

'that can stop the war against our Earth.

'Our children and grandchildren will have no chance.

'For them it will be too late.

'Now is the time, the mission is ours.'

'The Mountain Woman.'

We can bury this.

How?

I have to make a confession.

I have a secret I can't keep quiet any longer.

As you know, I have...

I've had a dream for a long time,

but I thought it would never come true,

until two days ago.

There is a little girl in Ukraine

who needs a mother,

and the mom happens to be me.

Congratulations!

Her name is Nika.

She's beautiful!

She is 4 years old.

I will go get her next week,

so we need to postpone our summer concert.

She's going to be a mom!

Who is this tourist?

This is not a joke.

Some American has taken over the investigation and Israelis too.

They're analysing the paper.

Why did you use an old typewriter?

-It can be traced. -Stop.

No one will trace it.

Why didn't you let me read it before?

I just had to get it out, the timing was crucial.

And then the girl came...

But there are weak points they will tear apart.

-Like what? -The laws about laws...

You're opening up a very dangerous angle,

that they will distort.

People will understand.

I've planted the seeds, it can't be stopped.

They don't want to stop it,

but to control it.

They will control the discussion.

What will be discussed? The real issues.

Who will tell us what the real issues are?

They've started a mole investigation.

The ministry is out of the loop.

Are you a suspect?

I don't know.

Everybody is a suspect.

I can't anymore,

I just can't do it anymore.

If they identify me,

they will identify you.

-We are too close. -We will stop it.

-I promise. -You have to leave.

Please leave.

It is clear that there will be wage cuts

because of this Mountain Woman.

It's an attack on wage-earning people.

The Bank of Iceland projects a plunge in its credit rating.

It will be rated at the bottom if energy isn't delivered.

Hydraulic energy is very ecological.

Nothing makes sense.

We will emit less greenhouse gases.

All this violence...

Democracy is the principal issue.

There are laws superior to human laws.

-What are those? Divine laws? -Or sharia laws?

Do we have to stop all industry and go back to our turf houses?

You don't answer the phone?

I forgot it at home.

Will you bring her some clothes?

Yes.

What size?

I don't know.

She's 97 cm and 22 kilos.

Tiny little creature.

She wouldn't touch the bottom of the pool.

Mommy!

Hello!

Sirry! So you were in the locker?

Come here.

How old are you?

4 years old.

4 years old? You have nice little feet.

Can I see?

And her shoe size?

25-26.

They grow fast at this age.

Yes, it's true.

Yes, really.

Children's shoes are so expensive,

and it will get worse with this Mountain Woman.

Yes, it's sad.

It's dreadful.

What's dreadful?

This violence.

This violence? It's just sabotage.

Just sabotage?

Economic sabotage.

It's extremism, which breeds extremism.

He who lives by the sword, dies by the sword.

But no one has been hurt,

except our country and our planet.

It's not the right way to solve this problem.

Meditating in some convent, will that change something?

It will change me and thus the world I hope.

Isn't that egoism, to think it will change the world?

The drop hollows the stone.

The stone?

The mountains are falling on us,

we don't have time to wait for drops.

Now you're going to save a child and the entire world with it.

Isn't that a small drop or is it just vanity?

At least I'm doing something for someone else.

We must not let this kind of terror

turn our society into a jungle

where the strongest steer the course.

That's the main issue.

Mr. Prime Minister, what are your projects

concerning global warming?

They are the reason for these acts of sabotage.

We will not discuss the environmental issues

until we know how to tackle this violence

as a nation.

That is the main issue.

The most important

is that we rally behind the democratic ideal.

That is precisely what Al-Qaeda and Isis suggest

and are doing.

But an example close to home is of course Anders Breivik

who in this context is the Norwegian Mountain King.

Those technical changes will enable us to safeguard against

an electricity outage

and increase the power of electricity transport.

So there will be no way to knock out a smelter

and hold an entire nation hostage.

Not only do the negotiations with the Chinese go on

but Rio Tinto will enlarge its aluminium smelter.

The country is rising again!

Thank you!

I need more of those, six indoor plants

and 25 kg of chicken manure to put in the trunk,

please.

Chicken manure.

According to the Blonduos police, there was a break in

at the Road Administration storage last night.

A great quantity of Semtex was stolen.

The Civil Protection have issued an alert

of possible sabotage

and has put up road blocks.

People are urged to call the police

if they see something unusual

but not to engage suspects

as they might be armed and dangerous.

Hello!

Where are you going?

It's a secret.

A flowery, surprise birthday present for my cousin.

Who is your cousin?

Sveinbjorn Asmunds...

Asmundsson. From Brusastadir in Pingvallasveit.

Sveinbjorn, I know him.

Really?

-You two are related? -Yes.

Can you open the trunk?

I know what it is.

Mea culpa.

I know!

You can't offer flowers without fertilizer.

Go right ahead.

So I'm free to go?

Great! Thank you!

Shut up!

What's wrong?

What are you trying to say?

You're under arrest!

Do not move!

Bring him!

Pick up!

Pick up signal at 2 o'clock.

Roger.

Negative.

Wait! There!

Is something there?

Negative.

Another bloody sheep! They're everywhere.

They must stop them from running all over the place.

Come, we don't have much time.

Thanks.

You're not out of this yet.

How did you find me?

I know my land,

I figured you'd come down here.

I'm freezing.

Here.

Squeeze down in the middle.

They're down there.

When they stop us, don't move.

Woman!

Come here!

Get in the car!

Where are you heading?

I wanted to bring some sheep up there,

but I had to turn back.

Woman!

You're making a hell of a noise!

Not thinking about the animals.

This grazing land has been used for 1000 years.

You don't have the right

to scare the livestock, just for fun.

Come!

Nobody's having fun here.

Really? So you will herd them up

when they've run back because of your mess?

We won't keep you.

If you see something...

Over my dead body.

Why would I patrol the land they've taken from me?

Get out of here!

The foreign national arrested two days ago

has been released today,

as it's considered his involvement was impossible.

The police are still pursuing the suspects...

Good morning.

Good morning.

Is Halla here?

Yes, she...

she is taking a shower.

I understand...

Would you like to...

come in and wait?

No... no. Can you give this to her?

It's clothes and shoes for the little girl.

I will call later.

I'm Asa.

Her sister.

Sveinbjorn.

A picture of little Nika.

Oh, yes...

Nika?

Yes, she's from Ukraine.

She looks like you,

and your sister.

She brought you this packet

for Nika.

They are hard workers, Ukrainian men...

and women.

You know where to find me.

You're welcome with the little girl.

She has to meet her cousin.

Her alleged cousin.

You are my cousin,

and you will be our cousin.

Have a nice trip!

Thank you.

Do you know what's going on?

They're taking DNA samples.

The internet is on fire about this.

The new provision of the laws issued by the Icelandic government,

all passengers must give a biological sample.

It's a quick and easy procedure

and # of national security.

Have you seen this?

It's incredible.

You can stop searching! She's been arrested.

Who?

The Mountain Woman.

It's some yoga teacher.

She looks a bit like you.

Down-town?

Yes.

Everything is going crazy.

The terrorist they caught is some madwoman,

some bohemian artist.

We're looking for Halla Benediktadottir,

choir conductor and musician.

Halla is 49, 176 cm tall.

She's slim with short dark hair.

Those who might know her whereabouts...

Where are you coming from?

Ukraine.

I didn't know there were flights from there.

I have to throw up.

Are you okay?

Can I help you?

Good girl!

THE MOUNTAIN WOMAN WAS ALONE

Well...

Her custody is over.

We're moving her to a cell.

She has a visitor.

You just press the button here

and we'll come.

You have one hour.

She is inside.

Yes, we can see that.

Close the door.

Thank you for the clothes.

Are they okay?

Yes, I think.

I should have told you.

No.

Then I would have been an accomplice.

I've never been able to keep a secret.

Now I understand why you asked me to be there for the child.

I don't want to talk about it.

Now you stay here

and you will turn this house, this prison,

into your haven, your convent, your temple.

I guess that's right.

You stay here,

but I, your sister Asa,

I am going to Ukraine.

What?

I spoke to the adoption agency.

I was next in line. I've taken care of everything,

I've prepared new papers,

they are in a bag in the car outside.

I'm ready to go

to Ukraine, to become Nika's mother.

But the convent and the guru?

I've decided this.

Your journey is now my journey.

And I go straight to the airport.

-But... -But you, Halla...

You will stay here in this convent,

your ashram, and practice your meditation.

Halla!

You must trust me.

We have a few seconds before the camera turns on.

What's going on?

Our cousin just knocked out all the power in South Iceland.

Our cousin?

Alleged cousin.

Bring Nika home,

we will help each other

when I leave my convent.

We end this visit for security reasons.

Namaste.

What does that mean?

I greet your inner, not your outer,

not your appearance, but your inner being,

who is holy and good.

Namaste.

-Do you speak English? -A bit.

Is this...

home... uh... home #2?

Ah yes.

Thank you. Thank you.

Uh... oh, I'm sorry,

uh... water around because of uh... rain.

-Okay. -rain...

-Okay. -So please...

My name is Nika.

My name is Halla.

Look...

a dog.

The dog.

The engine is soaked, we need to walk.
