My mother's going away for four days.

She asked if it was okay. I said it was. I don't think she noticed I was lying.

You'll take care of each other now? Understand? Will you be nice to Grandma?

- He's always nice, isn't he? Look , my old dress.

- Oh stop it now!

- Yes, it is. It's terrible. Yes. - It's fine.

And another one... Yes, three days. You have to have one more.

That one!

This one's not too bad. -No. - Yes! Take this one.

Bless him.

Darling, we're going to have a wonderful summer.

Sweetheart, you don't mind that I'll be gone for a few days, do you?

- Take care. - Yes.

- I always worry. And Amsterdam... you never know!

- Well, we're late as always. - Wait! The bag!

- Please have fun! -I'm in a hurry!

Four days will pass in no time.

When we get home, you'll finish school and then we're off!

So you have to take care of the rest.

You'll have to plan our trip.

The archipelago has 24,000 islands. Better decide where we're going.

- We could take off now. - No ...

Right, let's check the instruments.

It's important to keep this level.

- Yes, it shouldn't go below this mark. - Exactly.

We'll set off next Saturday.

- You'll be here to look after her? - 'Course I will.

- Here's the checklist. Study it carefully.

It contains everything you need to know about the boat.

Keep it handy at all times.

And- Here are the keys. Don't lose them!

Why aren't you taking the child? - I am not a child.

- No one else has children with them. - I don't want to stay at home with them!

They'll beat me up!

- Surely you can take care of your sister for a while.

- Four days of hell! - But we're all going to the Gambia then.

You said Africa! Gambia is in Africa.

Do I smell OK? OK.

- Check the boat extra carefully when a storm is coming, right? Good.

Mercedes, take care of P�rlan now. - I do that all the time.

- Yes, but then she'll have to sharpen up.

I've something for you. - Okay, we're off.

- Bye!

- Take care of Grandma. You sure you don't mind me going away?

Bye then!

- Remember to check the boat!

I'm hungry! I want food. - Cook something, then.

Food-food-food-food-food!

Do you have any ink cartridges?

Is that Solbacken?

- Yes.

- Where's Solbacken? - Come on, let's dance!

- Where is Solbacken? - Out in the archipelago. Now let's dance!

- Where is Solbacken!

No, I can't. - Yes you can!

- No, I don't know how.

Good! You can! It's fun.

Archipelago Sea, Southern Gulf of Bothnia:

Northwest or North, ten meters per second. Good visibility.

We interrupt our regular broadcasting with some breaking news:

Eight people died when a small aircraft crashed south of Copenhagen.

The plane was on its way from Bromma to Amsterdam ...

... when one of its engines caught fire.

During the attempted emergency landing, the plane crashed and exploded.

Everyone on board was killed.

The plane was leased by a small Amsterdam company in the engineering industry.

When we have more information about the accident, in which eight people died ...

... we will return with updates.

Can't you say anything? Say something!

We're looking at possible families for Glenn and the other three children.

- Bloody awful tragedy! Excuse me. It's terrible, this-

Of course he can come to live here.

You can lay your flowers now.

No, I'm not hungry.

Torsten- - She always liked this soup.

Your grandmother is ill.

- That's why I have to take care of her.

- But there are others who can help you with that.

I promise I'll do everything I can to-

- Can you make Mum come home again?

I have several families like-

I have a colleague who- A statement from a family-

I'll come and visit you! I promise!

You'll be back home soon!

Well, son ...

There are things like ... I'm not sure how to put it ...

... that are particularly important. Know what I mean?

Well ... the future ...

... looking forward. Thinking ahead.

Work, family, education ...

You with me?

Never hesitate if you have to ask something. I'm here for you, okay?

That's good, my boy. You'll be fine, son. All right?

Mum's work's arranged a memorial tomorrow. I don't know anybody there.

I don't want to cry with them.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

If, in spite of everything, things happen that should not happen ...

... reality breaks down.

Life changes and never really is the same again.

An aircraft crashes into the sea.

Four children lose their parents.

A company loses five of its employees.

Grief. Anger. Pain.

Why? How can it happen?

Why can't things be the same as they always were?

On the other hand, maybe there is an answer?

Here in church we can bring our grief ...

... our thoughts and our feelings.

But we can also bring our memories and longing for what went before.

It can happen that God may sometimes raise the veil for you and me.

So that we can accept something beyond life here on earth.

Something big and unimaginable.

Like the cocoon that can't know or foresee ...

... what it's like to be a butterfly ...

... and fly around on a summer meadow.

But we know ...

... because we have seen butterflies ...

... flying among the flowers in the summer meadow.

Can we sit here? - Sit wherever you want?

What are you writing? - I'm writing about what's happening.

- Write about me. Write that you've met P�rlan.

- Why did you just walk off?

- Are you all right?

- When will Grandma come home?

- I don't know, Torsten. I just wanted to mention that ...

... we've been working to arrange everything for you.

I think it's looking really good.

Really good.

- What's she talking about?

- Your new parents.

- What?

- Your new family is called L�fgren. They have a play house in the garden.

- What? - You'll meet them soon.

I just wanted to say that it looks really ... really good.

- A play house in the garden?

Come on!

Why are you leaving? What's wrong?

- I'm not having new parents. - Never mind him. Come on!

- Where are you going?

- Not enough money.

- Here. But I'm coming too.

- Come on then. - Come here!

- I'm not a dog.

Where are we going?

Is this your boat? Awesome!

Is it really yours? Well?

Ok. It's yours.

We should be able to live here! It's like a real home.

- It's just beautiful! - Absolutely amazing.

Hey! Is that Luna? I'll haul her up.

- Haul her up? No, that's changed. She won't be coming up.

- What the devil- - She's sold! Going to a new port.

- Listen, you- - Send your bill. Sorry. You did your job.

- You've heard of the phone? A bloody fine invention. Use it next time!

- What did you say? - Nobody's going to touch my boat.

- The bus'll be along in a few minutes.

Are you coming?

- The boat's got a full tank. I'm off.

- Where will you go?

- Nobody'll miss the boat. They'll think the crane has hoisted it.

- I'm coming with you. - So am I!

- We'll all come with you. We'll help with the boat.

We don't want to stay there either. It's actually the summer holidays.

- It's not a game being at sea. - Did I said I wanted to play?

- We'll never make it.

Cast off!

Torsten!

P�rlan!

It rocks a lot. But I'm not seasick.

I'm happy in a way. Now life's changing again.
