All language subtitles for Journey to Greenland_en

There's a strange noise, no?

No, no, look ahead! Look ahead!

The story begins like this.

Think of a positive image.

Thousands of meters in the air...

over Greenland.

The pilot...

This is Thomas, my best friend.

...looks a bit like Magnum.

Without him I'd still be in Paris,
having a quiet life...

Yeah, kind of.

...entangled in my stories,

ensconced in my sad existence

between Place Gambetta
and Boulevard de Ménilmontant.

Thomas, the landscape is amazing.

My name is also Thomas,
and at this moment, I must admit

I'm wondering what I'm doing here.

THE JOURNEY TO GREENLAND

In truth, I know very well why I'm here.

I'm here partly because of this guy.

This guy is my father,

and for years he's been
inviting me to Kullorsuaq,

a village at the end of the world
I've heard about since childhood,

and where he chose to live 20 years ago.

You remember Thomas?

-I didn't recognize you.
-Hello.

So...

-This is my son, Thomas.
-Hello.

And his friend, Thomas too.

And that's Ole and Adam.

Two years ago,

Ole and Adam stayed with us in Paris.

It was the first time
they'd left their village.

My father had a hunting accident
and couldn't accompany them.

Know any French singers?

So we ended up entertaining his friends.

You know Edith Piaf?

It was quite difficult at first.

We took them to a forest.

Then the sea, where they had
their first-ever swim.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, Ole!

At the end of their stay,
we promised to come to Kullorsuaq...

not really believing we would.

Welcome to my home!

So, that's the kitchen.

That's the living room.

Well, I'll let you settle in.

See you later.

-Which one do you want?
-I don't know. This one.

Your father's really nice.

But you seem very remote.

Well, it's just that I'm a little...

What?

A little upset.

He's aged, it was a shock.

-When did you last meet?
-Three and a half years ago.

I mean, we Skype for birthdays but...

on Skype, he looked the same.

Maybe he thinks you've changed, too.

I haven't changed that much
in three and a half years!

Yeah.

"Yeah" what?

You don't take care of yourself.

-Why do you say that?
-You never do sports!

Well, do you?

Know what? Maybe here
I can get back in shape.

Yes?

Everything OK? I forgot to tell you,

tonight there's a party in your honour

at the local hall. There'll be nibbles.

See you soon.

She smiled at me.

Beautiful, isn't she?

-Not bad.
-Not bad? She's Miss Kullorsuaq!

Right...

Or even Miss Greenland!

No, she's really beautiful!

Iva! And me?

-Thomas.
-Thomas. And him?

I'm getting hungry. Thomas!

Thomas! And Thomas!

-Iva!
-Iva!

-What is it?
-Seal liver.

Oh, I see.

Here's a knife.

With some fat.

-A tiny bit.
-A little bit, yeah.

-Whoa, it's all flabby!
-I think that's the fat.

It's good!

It's OK. Not so bad, actually.

-And you?
-Me?

No, I'm fine.

I'll let you eat.

-Thank you.
-Enjoy.

Isn't it weird that we don't have a drink?

-Here's my father.
-Nathan!

Is there anything to drink

to wash down the seal?

-There's no alcohol in the village.
-What?

They banned it. The locals decided

it was causing too much trouble.

The food's good, isn't it? Enjoy!

We'll never hold out
without alcohol. It's impossible.

What did he say?

He said he had a still
hidden at home. He's smart.

I guessed as much.

I'm relieved,
I was having an anxiety attack.

-Have some, it'll do you good.
-No, thanks.

It's very good.

We're told that's how life is

And that we can't change it

Thomas...

Come on!

What do I have to do?

-He pulls.
-He pulls?

It's quite a basic game.

Go, Thomas!

-I'll kill you! You'll see.
-No, I'm a Greenlander!

Windsurfing!

It's like windsurfing.

Last year will not return

Let's all join hands
And give thanks

I'm not sure he chose the right guy.

-Use your strength, OK?
-Yes, I'll pull.

You're dead!

-Hi, Dad.
-Sleep well?

Not bad.

It's really quiet.

I made coffee.
The cups are there, behind you.

Is your friend still asleep?

Thomas can easily
sleep round the clock.

Will you help me
fill the containers?

Fill the containers?

You see, we have no choice.

There's no running water
or mains drainage.

You saw the toilet.

Oh, yes, by the way,
how do you...

Mr Aku comes to each house
once a week to empty the waste.

He's also known as Mr Crap.

Strange job, eh?

I'm glad you came...

so you can see what it's like here.

I'm glad I came, too.

-And how is your mother?
-Oh, same as usual.

She doesn't change. Same as ever.

-Is she still with her psychiatrist?
-Yes, she is.

As soon as he opens his mouth,
you just want to leave.

He's the type

who has an opinion on everything
and can't stand

anyone disagreeing.

Whenever I go home, he asks me
to help him move furniture

or repair something.

And he makes you feel lazy,

but without actually saying it.

I shouldn't criticize.

They seem to get along, so...

Your mother was always good
at attracting strange guys!

Are you and Thomas together?

Together?

-Oh, no, not at all!
-Only I thought...

Got a girlfriend? Or a boyfriend?

Yes, I have a girlfriend.

Well, more or less.

At the moment we're apart, but...

we may get back together, it depends.

We already broke up
and made up again, so it's...

That sounds complicated.

Yeah, it's not simple.

Hello, Nathan, hello, Thomas!

Hello, Adam!

Your son's grown up, hasn't he?

Yes, time flies.

Thomas is the same age as me, right?

Yes,

but you have three children.

-He can take one if he wants!
-What's he saying?

He'll give you one of his children,
so I can finally be a grandfather!

No, it's fine!

Nathan would be a great grandfather!

He can take that one!

It was a good idea to go jogging, eh?

Yeah.

It's a change from Buttes Chaumont park.

I never really ran there.

Too middle-class bohemian.

You would say that.

If someone told me that one day
I'd be running on an ice floe...

What would you have said?

I wouldn't have believed it.

It's more likely for you,
your father lives here.

My father never took me beyond Dieppe.

You had a horrible childhood.

Yeah, I wasn't a happy child.

Are you serious when you say that?

I never joke about childhood, Thomas.

I've known you for ten years,

and I never know
whether you're serious or joking.

You've never said
what made your father settle here.

It started with a trip

with Robert,

a guy I liked a lot

who lived near us in Montreuil.

He was an explorer,

a bit like Jean Rouch,
but funnier, you know?

-Wasn't Jean Rouch funny?
-I don't know.

I'm just surmising.
Maybe he was.

Anyway, he made a living
reporting for TV around the world,

and that fascinated my father.

-Did Robert die?
-Yeah.

In a bloody stupid way.

He fell from a ladder
changing a light bulb.

Never mention light bulbs to my father.

This was when my parents were fighting.

My father decided to go with him
for a change of air.

Robert had never been here,
they were clueless.

They ran out of food.

Luckily they met Ole,
who was hunting in the area,

and he brought them to the village.
That's how they discovered it.

Then my father came back once, twice.

Then when he split with my mother
and lost his job a year later,

he decided to move here.

I think there was a chick too,
but I never really knew.

And you never asked?

No. Shall we go?

-Aappalaat.
-Thomas.

-Nuka Peter.
-Thomas.

-Thomas.
-Aappalaat.

-Thomas.
-Nuka Peter.

Want to dance?

No, no, thank you.

And you? You want to?

Go ahead!

Beatbox.

Thomas and I met in a drama class.

We were both trying to become actors.

But we lacked the right contacts
and guidance.

You, what's your name again?

-Thomas.
-Thomas, stand up

and come over here.

And...

you? Hey, you!

-What's your name?
-Me?

My name's Thomas.

Well, Thomas and Thomas. Come up.

OK, today you're going to improvise.

You're brothers, and you're both
in love with the same girl.

You saw them kissing
at school this afternoon.

-We're at high school?
-Yes, you're in 12th grade.

Er... Both of us?

Yeah.

So one of us repeated a year?

Yes, if you want. Let's say it's you.

-Can you go out, Thomas?
-Me?

Yes, you!

Go out and come back in,
as if back from school.

-Your brother's in the kitchen.
-What am I doing?

I don't know. Eating Nutella!

-OK, great.
-OK? Off we go!

-Hey, hi, Thomas!
-Hi.

Sorry, but can I change my name?

Only two brothers with the same name...

Yes, it's true, our parents
wouldn't have called us both...

-Or are we half-brothers?
-Whatever. Call yourself Patrick.

-And I keep Thomas?
-Yes.

-OK.
-Here we go!

Hey, Patrick! Hi, Patrick! You OK?

Uh... hi.

-You look weird.
-Had a good day?

Yeah, not bad. Why do you ask?

No reason.

You OK? Want some Nutella?

No, I'm not hungry.

How was your day?

Normal.

-That's good.
-Get a move on!

Tell him you saw him
kissing the girl you like.

Yes, but it's not easy to say.

It's intimate stuff,
you don't just blurt it out.

-Especially to your brother!
-Exactly.

Do you have brothers and sisters?

None of your business.

I'm sure you're an only child.

-Why do you say that?
-Because if you had siblings,

you'd understand the situation
and what we feel right now.

It's true that if I had a brother,

I'd never talk to him
about affairs of the heart.

You must keep things private,
especially within your family.

-Exactly!
-OK, look.

If that's how you feel,
forget trying to become actors!

Go back to your places.

What do you mean?

-We're not improvising?
-No, you're not. Go and sit down.

What are you doing?

We're leaving.

We'll keep our feelings
to ourselves elsewhere.

Right, who's next?

A CLUB IS MORE THAN JUST SPORTS

I wanted to ask you,
the pretty girl who was there

with her friends at the party,
the brunette

with a nice smile, what's her name?

You mean Nukannguaq.

Nur... Nur-kan-guap.

Yeah...

-Is she with someone?
-Why, you interested?

No, Thomas is.

It's just that I'm in a period
that's very conducive to falling in love.

It's very powerful.

So if there are opportunities...

I'm not sure she's

in a situation as conducive as yours.

She's had a difficult time lately.

What happened?

Her little brother died...

My father told us
Nukannguaq's little brother

had committed suicide a few months before,

and that it was in no way
an isolated case.

It's the first generation
to use the Internet, Facebook.

They see all these things
they'll never experience.

It's as if for the first time
they were told

that in their village, life is limited.
Here,

you go to school until you're 15, then

either you leave for the capital,
which is a hard decision,

or you become a hunter,

and do what your parents did.
Most resign themselves,

but her little brother

took a more radical decision.

Aided by the alcohol,
the tone of the evening changed.

We left the melancholic lands

where our talk of Nukannguaq's
little brother had led us

for more familiar territory.

Thomas gave us, for the umpteenth time

since I've known him,

an imitation of Daniel Auteuil in the part

of Ugolin.

The girl from the spring,
I love her, the carnation girl.

I'll give you anything.

I... I saw you naked,

I saw you naked in the river.
You were magnificent.

The scene I love is the one
with Anconina, you know,

-where he's very surprised.
-Which one?

-He's like that.
-What's that?

It's in Itinerary of a Spoiled Child.

And what is it, what does he do?

Belmondo says, "You often seem surprised."

"You often seem surprised," he says.
And Anconina says, "Really?"

-My parents pushed me into acting.
-Really?

Oh, yeah.

-They didn't really push you...
-They did.

They didn't push you.

They were happy you were doing something.

I had a classmate
whose parents were actors,

and they forced him to act.

What interested him was insurance.

-Really?
-It was awful.

He had to form a group
of amateur insurers in a garage

to satisfy his passion,

because everyone wanted him to act,

and he couldn't stand it.

It wasn't his thing.

No, don't get that, it looks disgusting!

What do you want?
You want to get this thing?

-I don't even know what it is.
-Get some and we'll see!

Hello.

-You OK?
-Yes, and you?

Yes.

There's music at the Klubi later.
You want to come?

We'd love to, thank you!

Great!

-Goodbye!
-Goodbye!

Goodbye!

You speak Inuit?

I learned a few words
from a book, that's all.

What did he say?

He invited us to a place
where they make music.

Crowded, isn't it?

It's really crowded. No? It's really...

What did you buy?

What, uh...

What did you buy?

It's nice, I like your haircut,
it's funny.

Good day.

I was ridiculous.

No.

She's pretty, huh?

Pretty girls who've suffered
are what upset me most.

I need to learn Inuit, and fast.

I need you to know
That I want to love you

That doesn't mean
I want to possess you

I'm still in love with you

And I want to always be
At your side

Maybe you already forgot me

And you met someone else

My dear love

Maybe I already lost you

My land, when I look at you

I am amazed

By your beauty

Sometimes

Alone on the mountain

I find myself dreaming

I want to find someone

To share this land

For future days

Yeah!

-I want to try something.
-Go ahead!

What is it?

Welcome to the workforce
The world of sharks

The state is worse
Than a gang of robbers

There's nothing you can do
Accept it or go to war

My misspent youth
Showed me the way

Now I see we're being screwed

I take the rough with the smooth
But never give in

The consumer society

Is boys' education
Assassin Production

Rises up and says no

I point the finger at the government

I will never be a slave
To your society!

You want to see my father?

See Nathan?

He must have gone to get water.

Fill the containers.

Get some water!

-Who's he?
-No idea.

-Where's your father?
-At the stand pipe, I think.

-Sit down, I'll make some coffee.
-Really?

Hunting.

He's been a long time.

It's quite an embarrassing moment.

He doesn't look very embarrassed.

Oh, Martika! When did you get back?

I came back yesterday. I killed a bear.

I left at dawn.

-You must come with me next time.
-That's incredible!

Martika is the village's best hunter.

He came back last night

with his seventh bear
since the start of the year.

He wants me to go with him next time.

I will come.

Champion!

Seven...

Why are they in such a hurry?

The French are weird sometimes.

I'll make a hole here.

We were lucky with the weather!

-A fish.
-Fish?

-Fish?
-Fish!

-Yeah!
-Wow, great!

Another one! Good things come in threes!

-Looks like a sardine.
-You look like his son.

You're his favourite!

-Fisherman.
-Fisherman.

Fisherman.

-Eh, Tommy?
-Thomas is gifted.

It's funny, we caught two at once
and then nothing.

Thomas the great fisherman
and Thomas the little fisherman.

-They must be sleeping.
-They're sleeping!

Too bad for us.

I was born in Qaarusulik.

While I was still a little boy,
my mother died.

I was very small,

and this couple adopted me and raised me.

In 1956, we moved to Kullorsuaq.

-Can you record it?
-I started school early.

-Our house looked like this.
-Yes.

-A Greenlandic home.
-OK.

Here inside, an old stove and some wood.

These are the houses of my childhood.

At the time, there were only 20 houses.

-He built the house with his hands.
-I think so.

These are photos of me as a child

when I was at school.

And this...

is my youngest son.

My son.

And who's that?

-The woman with the pipe?
-Yes, that's her pipe.

-Auntie?
-At the time, older women smoked.

-There's a family resemblance.
-This is me,

at my daughter's confirmation.

This is my wife,
and there, my grandchildren.

I think he wants to tell us
the entire history of the village.

At the time, there were no motor boats,
only kayaks.

There was no shop in Qaarusulik,

only Kullorsuaq, so people
went kayaking to do their shopping.

-OK.
-They row.

And this is Kullorsuaq.

It's beautiful.

Sometimes,
there are narwhal here.

And that's a walrus we caught.

-It's young, it's not big.
-Oh, yeah, it's a bear!

It's a bear that was pregnant,
and gave birth to a female cub.

-It's a bear...
-No, that's a whale.

Bear?

-Walrus.
-Ah, yes.

It's not over yet.
I think he's got all his photos out.

-It's nice of him, though.
-Yeah, it's very nice.

The sky above the roof
So blue, so calm

A tree over the roof rocks its palm

My God, my God,
Life is simple and quiet

This quiet rumour here
Comes from the city

What did you do,
O thou who art here

To cry so incessantly?

Say, what did you do
Thou who art here

With your youth?

-Ole, that's for your 50th birthday.
-A little laborious, but...

My turn now.

Despite the wide eyes
Of nothingness

The better to eat you, child

And the silence and the noise

We must live

And though blind
On a black background

Between the infinite chasms

Billions of stars laughing

We must live

Though we may not be beautiful

And are no longer 16 years old

And hope is a blank check

We must live

Despite the heart
That loses its way

The wind of love still blows

And which sometimes
Still intoxicates us

We must live

Even though
In the heaven of our love...

I've lost it. I'm too old.

Well done!

In France, we do this to stay fit!

-Are you OK?
-Must we go on?

I'm already tired,
and these boots are too heavy.

Yes, I know.
We could say we have work to do.

They seem to be loving it.

Go in defence, play defence!
I'm attacking.

Go! Come on!

Come on! Get stuck in!

-Thomas, go in defence!
-I am!

Each day that passed in Kullorsuaq
distanced us from our lives in Paris.

I'll run with you

and we'll do a one-two. No?

From what had led us to leave the city...

to flee.

One must call a spade a spade,

and an escape...

uh... an escape.

Go, Daniel!

Mélanie!

Start it, quick!

Daniel!

Quick!

Cut!

Shit!

I don't believe it, Thomas!
You can't even start the fucking car!

-It's not my fault, it stalls.
-It stalls?

You left it in first again.

Back to your places, everyone.

Yeah, I left it in first.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, right.

You would behold with regret
walking in your wake

an unworthy emperor

without empire, without court,

vile spectacle of human love's weaknesses.

Lord, it is time to leave.

Lord, it is time to leave.

There is nothing of which I am incapable.

You are now responsible for my life.

Think well upon it, madam.

It was magical tonight.

Wasn't it?

Memories weren't the only things fading.

In Kullorsuaq, the nights

were all but forgotten.

-This is Greenland.
-What's that?

The Earth.

It's like that, I think.

-And...
-What's your finger?

-It's the Moon... The Sun.
-Ah the Sun, yeah.

How does it work?

The Sun orbits the Earth.

No...

The Earth orbits the Sun...
What is it?

The Earth orbits the Sun in 24 hours.

I don't know how long...

No, it's the Earth

-that turns on itself in 24 hours.
-Oh, yes, that's right.

The Sun doesn't move.

How does it work?

There's the Sun that follows the line.

I don't understand
why it rises so suddenly.

It's really hard to understand.

-What time is it now?
-3:30 am.

It's daylight all the time.
It's an endless day.

What else can I say?

Why don't they have shutters?

-It's crazy.
-It's weird.

It's daylight all the time
and not a shutter in sight.

-Why not tell your father?
-What?

-Why not tell your father?
-To install shutters?

Yeah.

Well, none of the houses have shutters,

so it may be that, you know,
as he's an expat...

it would mark him out.

I guess he's trying to adapt.

OK, but you can install shutters
without people stoning you.

But your father's really...
I don't get it.

What? He loves it all.
For him, there's no problem.

It's as though things pass over him.

-Glide!
-Yes, "glide". It's weird.

-Wasn't he like that before?
-Yes, then, too.

-But now it's even more visible.
-That's crazy.

No, it's good that he's changed.
My father hasn't.

-I said he hasn't changed much.
-No, my father.

-He's changed?
-No.

Him neither?

-But your father has changed.
-No, not much.

You never ask me questions.

-You're not very curious.
-About you?

Yeah.

Well, that's because
I know everything already.

That's terrible.
You know everything about me?

I'm a mysterious person, though.

Yeah, that's true.

But I never want to know you, actually.

You show them, Nathan!
Give it all you've got!

-Go, Dad!
-Go, Nathan!

Nathan!

He took off fast.

He made a good start.

The others, too.

He has good dogs.

-What shall we do now?
-We have an hour.

-Go home?
-Yeah, I'm hungry.

-Utter garbage.
-What?

Nothing.

It requires flexibility.
Have you never done yoga?

-Nikilinkingahinga.
-Nikilinelga.

No. Nikilinkingahinga.

Shit! They must have arrived!

You scared me.

Yeah!

Dad!

-Dad, are you OK?
-Yes.

-Are you OK?
-Yes, I'm fine.

Are you sure?

-Are you feeling OK?
-Yes, everything's fine.

Will you be OK?

-You want to lie down?
-No, I'm OK.

You'll have to rest, Nathan.

Are you taking your medicine?

Yes. I feel perfectly fine.

What did she say?

I had a funny turn.
Something I ate. I'm fine.

Let's go!

Thank you.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

That evening we were invited
to dinner at Adam's place.

My father spent the day
shaking off what had happened.

Oops!

Go, go!

Oh, look at Thomas!

Sure you'd rather not postpone tomorrow?

What for?

-Maybe you'd like to rest.
-Rest? I'm in great shape.

The next day was our introduction
to seal hunting.

We left to spend two days
away from the village with Ole,

Adam and my father.

That's so it isn't thirsty
on the way to Paradise.

Now we'll cut it up before it freezes.

Is that the liver?

You must swallow it,

and you'll inherit
its strength and vision.

I have excellent vision,
20/20 in both eyes.

No, thanks.

Go on, swallow it!

You'll taste the lens,
you'll see it's very good.

Hi, Lise.

I'm recording all this,
I'll show you when I get back.

I'd like to send it from here,
but the connection isn't great.

I hope everything's OK in Paris.

I'm OK here.

I'm holding out, even if life is hard.

We're just pitching our tents, see?

We've had a day of hunting
that has wrung us all out.

Oh, I killed a seal.

That's good because they're relying on us
in the village for food.

Oh, yes, and I ate an eye.

It's an ancient tradition.

It's supposed to make you stronger.

Anyway, I miss you.

Kisses.

Last year, there were rumours

about a spirit, the Qivittoq, nearby.

That worried me.

I raised my seal nets near here.

I had a head torch.

It was pitch black.

The torch didn't illuminate very far.

I saw I had caught a seal

and suddenly, I felt something
trying to grab my legs.

I was afraid,
I turned round quickly to see,

and then I remembered

I had removed the sleeves of my ski suit.

I realized that was what was moving

when I leaned over.

I really thought I was going to be taken.

I really thought that the spirit Qivittoq
was going to take me!

He was really scared!

Thomas?

What's the date?

I don't know... The 14th.

Oh, fuck!

What?

-Did you do your return?
-My what?

Your social-security return?

Shit! I completely forgot!

It's the first time I've forgotten!

It's OK.

The deadline is in two days,
but we mustn't forget or we're dead.

Good job you thought of it.

You're telling me.

Have you digested the seal-eye?

Yes, I'd completely forgotten it.

-Well, good night.
-Good night.

What are you doing?

The helicopter's coming,
we have to go!

But I'm staying, Thomas.

What do you mean?

My place is here now.

With this third eye,
I have a huge responsibility.

I have the power to help them, you see?

And I have Nukaka... Nukan...

I have Nukankan...

And I have Nukannguaq.

-You don't feel like petting them.
-They're not very endearing.

There's a seal on the ice, it's yours!

What did he say?

Now it's your turn to shoot.
You're lucky!

He got it!

Now we'll cut it up before it freezes.

What are you doing?

Looking at the hunting video.

It's gory, isn't it?

I didn't think so.

It takes a form of insensitivity
to say that.

It's funny,
I'm always the insensitive one.

-Don't get upset, I didn't say that.
-I'm not, but you did.

Well, admit it,
you're never moved by anything.

You never like the movies you go to see,

or the books you read. Is that one good?

No, it sucks.

You see?

Do you like everything?

-No, I don't.
-Well, then!

We're no longer allowed
to say a book or a movie sucks.

But that's not the point.
With you it's systematic!

It's called critical thinking.
Obviously you don't have it.

-Wait, I have no critical thinking?
-Not really, no.

Forget it, you're a drag.

Great line of defence.

I don't have to justify
liking stuff you don't.

We just have to laugh
when you mimic Ugolin, that's all!

-I don't see the link.
-There isn't one.

Are you making fun of my Marseille accent?

Of course I'm not making fun
of your Marseille accent.

You're really paranoid.
You're paranoid and insensitive.

OK, I'm going to sleep,
you've made me too angry.

Yeah, better stop there. Good night.

Yeah, right.

Critical mind...

-What are you doing?
-Going out, I'm not sleepy.

Do you mind?

Look, I'm sorry about yesterday.
I didn't mean what I said.

It's not true that
you have no critical thought.

Don't overdo it.

You weren't entirely wrong.

I struggle to judge things, people.

You're a generous guy, Thomas.

Sensitive, eh?

I shouldn't have said
you were insensitive.

And you're right. You should say
if you don't like something.

Don't forgot,
we have to do our returns today.

Your father has no Internet.

-No, we have to go to the Klubi.
-Where is your father, anyway?

He went bear hunting with Martika

and his son who returned
from Upernavik yesterday.

They spotted one near the village.

Did you work much this month?

I've eight fees to declare.

Really?

I did the trilogy in Bobigny again,
you know?

And you?

I did my three days
on a stupid sitcom with that tart.

That's it.

Mind you, it saved my life this month.

Wait for me!

social security

Wow!

"Fejl"?

What's that?

Ole!

Can you come over here, please?

What's "fejl"? It doesn't work.

It's not working today. We can do nothing.

Try again tomorrow.

What's he saying?

No idea.

Is the Internet not working today?

Tomorrow.

Thomas?

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

No, it's not possible tomorrow, Ole.
We have to...

The Social Security...

-We're both actors.
-Part-time.

It's entertainment,

a special regime.

You have to do 507 hours
every year.

If you don't, you get no money.

Understand?

Every month, we have to say

how many hours we did

to make up the 507 hours,
because if you...

You're... you're a she...
you're a sheel... seal hunter.

You kill seals, you see?

You'd have to kill 507 seals a year.

In ten months.

In ten months, you have to kill 507 seals.

Then you tell the Mayor,
"I killed 507 seals",

and then you no longer
need to hunt for a while.

You can stop hunting.

At a given point, you're...

Come with me.

Come.

He wants us to follow him.

It might come back.

Frankly, I doubt it.

We'll lose our rights.
We'll have to fill in forms,

cry in front of a clerk
who will lecture us.

We'll be missing documents.

It'll take months.

Meanwhile,
we'll have to survive like losers.

What are you doing?

I'm coming!

I...

lou...

louamik.

Ilouamik.

Come.
The connection is restored.

Come! Let's go!

Slow, isn't it?

Yeah! We're in!

It's the first time it's worked.

-Enter your login!
-Look at the bar while I do it.

So, 507.

ZIP code 75020.

You've got three bars, you're fine.

It's OK.

Come on! "Have you worked?" Yes.

-Your employer.
-My employer.

-Who's my employer?
-It's working.

My employer? Bosoleil Productions.

From the second to the fifth.

-Three fees.
-Three fees.

Payment? 750.

-Three bars.

-Yeah!
-It's OK!

-My turn! My turn.
-Concentrate.

Where do I click?

There!

-No!
-Yes...

-No!
-Fejl!

I don't believe it!

Wait.

Don't worry!

I'll click again.

If it worked for me, it'll work for you.

I hope so!

Be positive.
Don't worry, there's two to three bars.

If you don't believe in it,
it won't believe in you.

It's connecting. It should be OK.

Yeah, it's OK!

-I'll do it.
-No, it's my update.

Right... User ID.

Password.

-Don't distract me.
-He types with one finger.

-It's my technique!
-Let me do it.

No, it's my technique, that's how I type!

-Let me do it.
-Thomas, stop it!

"Have you worked?" Yes.

Then...

Five fees.

-Then three fees.
-Making eight fees.

450 Euros.

Don't repeat everything.
You're doubling the time.

You're right.

It's dropping, Thomas.

You've got half a bar, it's OK.

There's no more bars.

An internship? No... No.

-No illness.
-No. Click.

No... No. Half a bar.

"Still looking for a job?" Yes.

Click OK. Go.

Come on.

-It should be OK.
-It won't hold up.

Yeah! It's OK!

Wish me good luck.

"Good luck".

I find you very beautiful.

You are very moving.

I'd really like to...

know you better.

I'm already in love with a boy.

Thank you.

-Well?
-I think she likes me.

I killed a bear.

This new day
that was dawning in Kullorsuaq

heralded the end of our trip.

-Here.
-Thanks.

One, two, three,

four and five.

Here.

-Hello!
-Hello!

-Five pancakes for Ole's family!
-What is it?

Is it good?

Shall we go? Goodbye.

Goodbye.

It's pancakes. They're for you.

Thank you.

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

I'm glad to have met you.

You're nice boys.

What did she say?

No idea.

Why didn't you record it?

I couldn't stick my phone in her face!

We'll never know.

Maybe she said she didn't like pancakes.

-Hello!
-Hello!

Oh, it'll be good!

Come in!

No, we can't.

We're in a hurry.

No, thanks.

Come on, come in!

It really smells good.

Well, quickly, then. Quickly.

One minute. We have to hand out pancakes.

Does everyone want pancakes?

Who wants this one?

Hold on.

Yes.

Little ones first.

Iva, have you had one?

You've already had one.

You've got one in your mouth!

You've already had one.

-Who's had none at all?
-Me.

Everyone's had one. Right,

now we're going to the other houses.

You have to share,
it's important to know that.

-It's all over.
-Who'll give me a piece?

-Goodbye!
-Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Last house.

I rummaged in my father's room
yesterday and I found X-rays.

X-rays?

Heart X-rays.

-It doesn't necessarily mean...
-What?

That he's ill.

I know.

Maybe he just decided to get a check-up.

Maybe.

Still...

it might be good to talk about it.

-I don't know how to do that.
-Do what?

Talk about stuff like that.

We're handicapped
when it comes to intimate family issues.

In that case, do nothing.

You're right. Maybe that's what I'll do.

Shall we go?

-Hello!
-Hello, Martika.

Peace and health!

Goodbye, Ole.

Goodbye, Adam.

Adam.

Goodbye, Ole.

"Come back when the ice floe

"has melted.
We'll sail between the icebergs."

With pleasure!

Well...

Kiss your mother for me.
And keep in touch, eh?

I will.

Will you keep in touch, too?

Yes, of course!

Thanks for everything, Nathan.

Bye, Dad.

You will come back, huh?

Yes! We'll try.

It wouldn't have changed a thing
if you'd mentioned it.
