STORY OF A MURDER

What are you doing tonight?

Going to the movies.

With the intellectual?

Yeah.

I don't understand what you see in that guy.

He's no worse than other guys.

I suppose so.

So, what is he studying?

Psychology.

That'll do you good.

Can you hand this over to Kalli while I tidy up?

Kristín wants you to have this.

This isn't right at all...

Don't worry about that. Money isn't everything.

This doesn't add up at all.

I'm afraid poor Kalli has gone screwy at the counter.

He never thinks of anything other than money.

I'd go crazy too if I had to count money all day.

What movie are you seeing?

Some French crime thriller.

- I'm off. I'll see you tomorrow. - Wait a second. I'm coming with you.

I have to talk to you about tomorrow night.

- Hurry up. I'm going to the shops. - I'm coming.

You're going out on the town with me tomorrow, right?

I'll have to come up with something to tell him.

You let that guy walk all over you.

I promised to go out with him if he could make it.

- Then why don't you go with him? - I want to go with you.

Okay. Then you think of something to say to him.

I'll have this one.

That'll be 250 kr.

Mom.

Home already, darling?

I hurried home before Dad comes

so I could play this record in the living room.

- You think it'll be okay? - I don't know, dear.

He could be home any minute now.

I'll take the risk. Can you watch out for him?

Yes, but you'll have to be ready to take the record into your room.

You know he'd kill us both if he caught you using the record player.

- I know. Look out for him. - All right, dear.

Mom? Is everything okay?

Yes.

Oh my god. He's here!

He's here. Your dad's here. For god's sake, hurry up!

Take the record. Are you crazy? Smoking in here?

Quickly! Quickly!

- You think he'll notice anything? - I don't know.

Not unless he smells the cigarette smoke.

We'll have to act completely normal. Help me set the table.

Isn't dinner ready yet?

It'll be ready in half an hour.

Why're you always so tardy with dinner?

- Are you so busy during the day that you have no time to cook? - No.

It'll be ready in a minute.

It's always like this with you.

I'll have to start dining out.

God, I wish you would.

Did someone smoke in here?

Not to my knowledge.

Why do you ask?

Thanks for dinner.

- You're welcome, dear. - What's the big rush?

Can't you even sit at the table until the meal is finished?

I have eaten ready.

It's a matter of etiquette to stay seated until everyone has finished.

You always leave when you've finished eating.

Sit down!

Etiquette, eh?

Walking away from the table before everyone else has finished.

Calm down.

You should be used to this by now.

- I'll never get used to this shit. - Well...

You can get used to all sorts things.

Not me.

Hi. How are you?

Yeah, I'm good.

Hey, hold on a second...

- Margrét? - Yes, what is it?

Coffee.

- Here you go. - Hey...

The dinner party tomorrow must be a success. There's a lot at stake.

I could land a deal worth millions.

What's the main course?

I don't know. I hadn't decided. I thought maybe...

You don't ever know anything. Can't you make any decisions?

- Don't we still have deer meat in the freezer? - Yeah, I think so.

Think? We have it unless we gave it away. I hope not.

- That'll be the main course. - Yes.

- And I bought those French snails, right? - Yes.

Those'll be the appetizers.

And make that banana dessert with...

With whipped cream and liquor,

like you made when we had over the CEO of...

What's the name again? You know...

- Of the CEO or the dessert? - The CEO of course!

The CEO of... What's it called again?

- I know what recipe you're talking about. - All right?

Nothing can go wrong.

They'll be here at 8:30. Have everything ready at eight.

I'll make sure of that.

- Is it okay if I get a maid to assist me? - Suit yourself.

Make sure you make yourself presentable for the guests.

Fucking piece of shit. It's broken again.

The dishwasher is broken again.

It's always on the fritz. It's not normal.

- You must be doing something wrong. - I suppose so.

I just load it up and press the button.

You must be doing something else.

I'll phone the repair shop tomorrow and have them send someone over.

- You'll have to be at home. - When will he come?

How should I know?

I won't know until I phone the repair shop.

- Can you stay at home that day? - That's inconvenient.

If you want the machine repaired, you have to stay at home.

- Do either of you need to use the bath? - No, dear. Not me.

I'm sure it's fine.

Goodbye.

- Are you going out, dear? - Yes, to the movies.

- Have fun. - Thanks.

- Where are you going? - To the movies.

Do you have to go out every single night?

- She's only... - Shut up.

Alright, go wherever you're going, whether it's the movies or someplace else.

But I'll be keeping the time closely.

A minute later than 11:30, and you know what'll happen.

Anything else?

Just you wait, daughter dear.

- Hi. - Hi.

You look so pale.

- Anything happen? - No.

Something must've happened. You look so pale.

Just Dad making a fuss. He doesn't allow me to go out at night.

You let him completely control you?

You're old enough that he can't rule over you all the time.

- What movie are we seeing? - A French film by Chabrol.

Chabrol is a genius.

He masterfully shows the moral failings of the bourgeoisie,

utilizing the genre of crime thriller.

I'm going to bed. Good night.

Good night.

What's the matter?

You need a bigger car to do it in.

- What time is it? - It's barely past 11:30.

Can you drive me home now?

Are you completely at his mercy?

It's only just past 11:30.

Can you please drive me home?

All right, then.

I don't understand this at all.

Goodbye. Call me tomorrow at work.

Yes. Goodbye.

Hi. Good night.

Just a moment, miss.

Didn't we have a little talk before you went out?

You know what time it is?

- Just past 11:30. - It's 11:50. You're 20 minutes late.

- I'm sorry but... - Sorry about what?

- I thought the time was... - Is that so?

- See the clock over there? - Yes.

- It's 10 to midnight. Where have you been? - At the movies.

- With whom? - Daníel.

That asshole? I don't want you hanging around with that loser.

He's not a loser.

- I know exactly what you were doing. - Nothing, Dad! Nothing!

I'll teach you what this costs you.

Remember what I said if you came home late tonight?

- I won't do it again! - Remember?

- I promise! - You promise, promise, promise...

- You promise... - Don't! Dad!

I promise, Dad! I promise! I promise, Dad!

I'm sorry...

My sweetheart.

Hurry up, if you're coming with me, Anna.

- Hold on. I'm coming. - Hurry up, then.

- Good morning, darlings. - Good morning.

Good morning. Good morning.

- Here's your mail. - The mail, yes.

Róbert?

- Yeah? - About Sigurður's company...

Don't they owe us money? How much do they owe?

- 350,000 kr. - That much?

It is company policy that such costumers pay up before getting more credit.

Here it is.

This it?

Yes. This is it.

- Are you scared? - No.

- Scared of what? - Me.

- You? - Me.

Why would I be scared of you?

Prove that you're not, then.

How?

Silly boy.

Prove it to me.

Are you horny? Show me what you can do.

Take me here.

Right here.

- Hello. Is the king here? - The king? What do you mean?

- Do you mean the CEO? - Yes, the king.

- He's inside. - May I speak to him?

- What is your name? - Esiker.

- What? - Esiker.

Esiker?

Just a moment.

- Come in. - Someone wants to see you.

- Who? - Someone called Esiker.

- Esiker? - Yes.

- Show him in. - Please.

Please have a seat.

- What can I do for you? - I have The Truth for you.

The Truth?

That's exactly what I needed right now.

Would you like an additional copy?

No thank you. One copy is enough.

"Remember that love is never invalidated." Well said.

Would you like to make a contribution for our publishing?

Guðrún?

Give this man 5,000 kr. He's on his way out.

Isn't that a bit much?

No, it's the least I could pay for the truth these days.

Thank you very much.

The Truth, eh?

I have a meeting.

- If someone asks for me, take a message. - All right.

I have to get going.

I have to buy flowers and wine for the dinner party tonight.

What about me? You never invite me to dinner.

I can't stand this anymore. I hate all this secrecy.

- I want a man who's not ashamed of me. - You know I'm not ashamed of you.

- Why don't you ever take me out? - You know I can't do that.

Yes, you can. If you wanted to and if you cared about me.

You know I care about you.

Prove it, and take me to Hotel Saga on Saturday.

Okay.

We'll see about that.

Can you put me through to Vígsla?

Is Anna there?

Yes, just a moment.

Anna. It's for you. I think it's the intellectual.

Come up with something about tonight.

Hello. Hi there.

I'm good.

Dad? Yeah, he threw a fit as usual.

Yeah.

What? You can't go out tonight?

What came up?

But didn't we have plans for tonight?

That's too bad then. I'll just stay home tonight.

Yeah, it's okay.

All right then. Bye.

- The night is all set. - Oh?

- He's attending some student meeting. - Great!

Don't overcook the meat.

It has to be medium done. Or else it's inedible.

I know.

Did the repairman show up?

Yes... er... no, he didn't show up.

What do you mean? Did he show up or not?

He did not show up... Unfortunately.

- Were you home the whole day? - Yes.

- Where's Anna? - She went to the theater with her friend.

Who's that old bag? Couldn't you find someone better?

She's not too bad.

These are flowers. Put them in a vase on the dinner table.

You didn't expect your guests to bring flowers? Like people do?

I said there are flowers there. Put them in a vase on the dinner table.

What's the matter with you?

Can't you set the table without breaking valuable items?

I'm sorry. I don't know why I'm so careless.

For fuck's sake...

That's a glass from a set worth...

God damn it!

Elísabet. What happened? What's wrong?

I broke a glass by accident. He was so angry...

It doesn't matter one bit. It's just one glass.

I should go.

I'm not capable of serving in such an elegant house.

Oh, what nonsense!

- Yes. It's true. - Elísabet.

You must help me. I can't do this alone.

Please.

Don't take it personally.

Don't listen to him.

Very well.

I'll do my best.

Thank you very much.

Can you please take those flowers and put them on the table?

Okay.

They're here.

Good evening. Good to see you all.

Hello. Thanks for your invitation.

Take your coats off, please.

Let's go into the living room now.

How do you do?

Always good to see you, old friend.

Hello there.

- Please have a seat. - Thank you.

Good to see you.

How frightfully cozy it is here.

Yes, very elegant.

What a fuckin' nice place.

Thank you.

May I offer you something to drink before dinner?

A dry martini for me.

I don't care what I have. I guess I'll have the same.

I'll have some scotch if you have any.

Elísabet.

It's too fuckin' bad that scotch gives me such a bad hangover.

I'll have... er...

What's it called again?

A screwdriver, dear.

A screwdriver. That's my favorite.

That's two dry martinis, a screwdriver, a vodka...

I guess I'll have scotch too.

- What about the missus? Doesn't she drink? - Oh, of course.

What do you want, Margrét dear?

I'll just have what everyone else is having.

- Yes, what? - Doesn't matter.

Have a dry martini with us, dear.

Yes, I guess I will.

One more dry martini, head waitress.

Hey, that's a good one!

- Please bring us those drinks, Elísabet. - As you wish.

May I offer you a cigarette or a cigar?

Hey, tell me something...

Do you have a quadraphonic sound system out there?

No, it's all over the house. But you can also listen in the music room.

What are you saying?

Can you listen to the music anywhere in the house?

Sure. The whole house.

Even on the john?

Yes, there too.

How wonderful!

Listening to a fancy symphony while you're...

On the john.

It might be good for constipation.

- Please have some. - Thank you.

- Cheers everyone! - Cheers!

I can't stop admiring how wonderful it is here.

Just divine.

Thank you.

How many children do you have?

A daughter.

How old is she?

Eighteen.

Isn't she at home now?

No, she... went to the theater with her friend.

Come on, girls, move, let these cuties get to the counter.

- We're boys, not girls. - Don't make a fuss.

- What do you want, darlings? - I'll have a "As you like it."

Me too.

- Who's that? - An impotent loser.

- Have you been with him? - I can hardly make that claim.

What do you mean by that?

He comes before even getting to bed. Then he's weak and dies.

- What's so funny, girls? - It's a secret.

- You can't even tell me? - Not even you.

Then I won't tell you my own secret.

- What? - It's a secret.

You're mean! How much do I owe you?

- Nothing! - Nothing? Why?

Because you're you and won't tell me. Won't you tell me later?

Aren't you happy, girls? What you want to drink?

- I told you he's okay. - I hope there aren't more like him.

- Hey. You see that guy over there? - Who?

- With the curly hair and white shirt. - What about him?

- He's apparently a stud. - How so?

He's so good in bed.

I know a girl who's been with him that says,

that he knows a lot of Arabic and foreign methods.

- Are they any better? - Yes. You get such a powerful orgasm.

Practically endlessly.

It sounds like you've been with him.

No. There's a girl I know that told me.

- If you say so. - It's true!

Should we go up and take a look?

- I hunted this deer myself. - Really?

Wasn't it marvelous?

Ægir is against killing animals. What do you think?

Yes. For the most part.

Well, what would we eat if no animals were killed?

Canned food.

Do you hunt a lot?

Yes. Quite a bit.

Do you kill for pleasure?

No, not exclusively.

But you get such...

A catharsis from killing a beast.

You awaken your inner primitive, moreso than than someone

who goes into the store and buys meat wrapped in plastic.

Hey, did you know...

They're now making plastic meat over in America.

- Ew! - Ew? Have you tried it?

- Do you own many guns? - I have a bit of a collection.

Aren't you... quite the sharpshooter?

Even if I say so myself... My aim is not bad.

This is really quite fuckin' good, isn't it?

It's quite exquisite.

Please, have some more.

Hey, don't you reckon that deer meat actually makes you lose pounds?

- Yeah, I'm sure it does. - Yes.

It's important to manage the curves... For some of us at least.

- Cheers. - It's simply divine.

- Cheers. - Yes, it's wonderful. Cheers.

Please, eat as much as you can.

I think I'm just about to burst.

- That was really cool. - Oh, yeah.

Hey, guys. Isn't there a party somewhere?

- At Lovísa's house. - Oh, slutty Lovísa?

Shut the fuck up, you creep! You're not invited.

- Hey, Lovísa, aren't you having a party? - Yeah.

You're all invited to the party. Except that fucking creep over there.

I'm sorry, baby, I didn't mean anything by it.

Okay. You can come. Let's go.

Don't people usually sail with the wind? Isn't that normal?

No. I'm against it.

How do people sail then? Surely they don't sail against the wind?

Wow, you must be rich. That's the third check that you throw in the fire.

- Why do you do that? - It's fun.

Anyways, all this nonsense is a big lie.

- What? - Life.

That's a good point. But what the fuck is it all for?

All those days and years,

hundreds of thousands of hours that are wasted and are never recovered.

People are out of their minds.

Why are you so good at speaking French?

- I was in Paris for a few years. - Doing what?

Collecting statistics about nothing. OCD.

- What do you do now? - I drink.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

I eat.

- I mean what do you do for a living? - Many things.

I think. I sleep. I love.

Do you believe in love?

Yes. I suppose it's the only thing I believe in.

I want freedom in love.

Freedom in love can be fragile, mon amour.

- What's your name? - Names don't matter.

- Then what does? - People. Individuals.

You're kind of weird. But I like you.

Don't you do anything?

Yes. I'm looking for El Dorado, like everyone else.

- What's that? - What's that?

It's a country in South America that no one has found yet.

There's shared resources all over.

Gold has no value there. Everyone lives in peace and harmony.

- Oh, I'd like to go there. - I'll take you there, if I find it.

You're so sweet.

Anyone want something to eat? There's plenty of food.

I'll cook this meat in the backyard. The grill will be full.

- Is there enough firewood? - Can you bring those chairs?

You're gonna burn these chairs?

Come on! We need firewood. We gotta eat or we'll die.

Hi. Have something to eat.

- Who lives here? - Lovísa's parents. They'll will be back soon.

I think I have to wake up this darling on the floor.

I think he's slept enough.

I don't think that's an easy task.

I have an idea. Is there any cheese here?

Ah, blue-ball cheese. Perfect.

- You mean blue cheese. - Blue-ball cheese.

I wonder what this could be.

Come on. Get up.

Where am I?

Where am I going?

Oh, Dean Martin is so nice.

He's so handsome on television. A real star!

No, I think Marlon Brando is much more good-looking.

He's so sexy!

- Don't you think so? - I don't know.

I had a big crush on Humphrey Bogart back in the day.

I remember how jealous I was of his wife. Remember Lauren Bacall?

- Are you still jealous? - Why would I be?

- Because of your husband, for example. - No, I don't think so.

No. Margrét is not jealous.

She's so old, her passion has withered away.

Why should she be jealous?

Maybe he cheats on her. Don't most people?

Does your husband cheat on you? Or maybe vice versa?

Maybe.

You never really know.

I want to dance. Dance with me, darling.

- I'm too old, I think I forgot how to. - Don't be silly.

All right, then.

Sit here with me.

Kiss me, darling.

May he kiss me?

- Are you asking me? - Of course.

As you please.

Aren't you jealous now, darling?

Let's play strip poker!

Excuse me.

- Did I offend? - No, it's okay.

She just had too much to drink. She'll be fine.

- Should we then? - What?

Play strip poker.

Oh, please. Just take your clothes off now if you want to so much.

I don't see the point in playing poker and taking your pants off.

I didn't mean anything by it.

Never do or say anything you don't mean.

Oh yeah? And you never do that?

Never say never.

God damn it...

Those fucking shitheads.

I don't ever go salmon fishing, unless I'm invited.

Maybe we should go salmon fishing soon?

I know what we'll do.

Let's all three of us go to my lake.

Oh, this goddamn talk of fishing all the time...

So, the missus is back again.

She didn't pass out like you said.

- He never said that. - Shut up.

These are large amounts that you've invested in the past year, right?

You could say that. Hundreds of millions the past year.

Everything from thumbtacks to power plants.

All this goddamn business yak all the time.

Can't we talk about something else?

Money is the foundation of everything, after all.

He who has no money is nothing.

Truer words were never spoken.

That is perhaps a little overstated.

I would love to have interest in something other than money.

But I simply don't.

Hey, what do you make money on?

Asswipes, for example.

You have the great honor of attending a dinner party

hosted by the country's largest asswipe salesman.

- Margrét. - That's why he invited you.

To have your husband buy asswipes for all the state-owned toilets.

- Margrét. - All police stations, psych wards...

That's enough, Margrét. Shut up! You're drunk.

I'm no drunker than you lot.

Stop this nonsense at once! You're insulting our guests.

Our guests? These are not our guests.

These are your guests, not mine. And you can keep 'em!

This fucking trash.

I apologize for her behavior. It's unforgivable.

Mind yourself.

I suppose it's time to get going.

No, there's no hurry! She'll get better.

But he won't get any better, I can tell you that.

Well, I think we should go now.

It's late anyway.

Well, it's too bad to have to miss this new show.

Methinks this will get even more exciting.

- Shut up, you fucking whore. - Margrét!

Everyone knows you cheat on that geezer,

your fancy husband, with any cock you can get your hands on.

- She has completely lost her mind. - God damn it, woman.

Please, don't go. By all means...

- Let's go. - Just a second.

Thanks.

Goodbye, darling. And thank you very much.

Don't be sad about this.

It's the same old story, isn't it?

- You just have to grin and bear it. - I'm sorry.

- I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. - I know, darling.

It's all right.

Goodbye, darling. This was nice.

- I must apologize... - There's nothing to apologize for.

- See you later. - Are you sure you don't want me to call...

- Thank you. - Good night.

- Don't you want me to call for a cab? - No, it's okay.

- It's okay. I don't feel drunk at all. - You sure? Okay.

- Thank you for coming. Good night. - Good night.

Don't touch the record player!

Why not? I want to play.

- You've played enough tonight. - Have I?

I haven't played anything. It's your fucking record player.

Idon't mean the record player.

- Oh? What? - I'm talking about your behavior tonight.

You humiliated the both of us with your despicable behavior.

I haven't humiliated myself.

Really? Yes, you did. You know that damn well.

But what about you?

What do you mean by that?

You let that floozy make a fool of you.

- Make a fool of me? - Yes, poor thing.

You let that hussy make an absolute fool of you in front of everyone.

- Is that so? - You didn't realize she was manipulating you.

Trying to make me upset. Fucking whore.

To make you upset? You're a whore yourself, they way you acted.

And what about you?

What about me? That's the only thing you have to say?

- I have much more to say. - Like what? Spit it out!

I don't want to.

You fucking hussy. You've ruined everything.

I could have made millions on that deal.

You're a nobody that only thinks of money.

Shut it, you bitch!

It's true. You don't ever think of me.

You only ever treat me with disdain. All the time.

I'm tired of it. You understand? Tired of it!

What else am I supposed to do? Like how you have behaved?

- Like I've behaved? - Yes, that's right.

What about you? How do you behave?

What do you mean by that?

You know what I mean. How do you behave, even when you're not drunk?

No, I don't get drunk and humiliate myself like you.

- You should be ashamed. - No, you do something else.

What do I do? Tell me, tell me!

- Things. - What things?

I'm sure you have affairs with other women.

- Really? Are you sure of that? - Definitely.

- You never sleep with me. - I have no desire for you.

No...

But you desire her.

Her? Who? What'd you mean?

- You know what I mean. - What? Spit it out!

You know who I'm talking about. You just can't admit it.

- Tell me what you mean. - You think I never noticed?

For a long time, how you are around her?

- Tell me, who? - You are sick.

That's what you are. You are sick!

Shame on you! Shut up! You're lying, you're lying!

- I'll fucking kill you! - You are a beast!

I'll kill you.

I'm going to kill you.

You wretch. Absolute wretch.

You're only human.

You want one set of rules for you...

And another for everyone else.

Okay then. You can't stay there forever.

- Play another song. - Play something fun.

Hey, play... uh...

I'm not in the mood for it.

I don't feel like playing anymore.

Wow, I feel like I'm floating somewhere far away.

- Doesn't it feel nice? - Everything is spinning.

Really? Then spin along.

- I feel weird. - No, really?

I'm just...

Hey, should I give you a massage? You'll feel better.

- I'm getting sick. - No, it'll pass.

It won't pass. I feel queezy. Where's the bathroom?

The bathroom? Somewhere out there. Should I come with you?

No thanks.

Come and join us.

- No, I'm just looking for the john. - Come.

- No, where's the john? - The other side of the hall.

Come join us afterwards, please?

- Kristín, I'm going. - I'm coming.

I'm going right away.

Wait a second.

Then come right now.

- Are you coming? - I'm coming.

I'm off, then.

Goodbye. I'll see you later. I'm off.

- Do you want a ride? - No, it's okay.

- Isn't it a bother for you? - No, it's okay.

I'm off. Goodbye.

Wait, I'm coming.

Hurry up, then.

Bye and thanks for the party.

- I'm not using that shit again. - Did it really make you that sick?

It must have. I've barely been drinking.

You can't drink with it if you're a novice.

Otherwise it's good.

You get an amazing orgasm if you're high.

I can't say I had one this time.

I mean if you're really into it.

- Have you tried it? - No, a girl I know told me.

She tried it.

I guess the old man will lose his mind. It's so late.

- Is he so strict? - That's not the word I'd use.

- You never been out the whole night? - Are you nuts?

I hope everything will be okay.

Goodbye. Thanks for the night.

Goodbye and thanks.

You're back early, my dear daughter. It's only 4 a.m.

I thought you had guests over, so I stayed at my friend's house.

Is that so? You were at your friend's house?

She must be a very good friend.

Yes, I was at Kristín's house. She's my best friend, I promise.

- Don't lie to me! - I'm telling the truth, Dad.

Where were you? Spit it out!

At Kristín's house, I swear. We went...

- Yeah? - To the theater, then we went to her house.

We were talking and forgot about the time, I swear.

No need for oaths, missy.

Did you really think you could lie like that to me?

I'll teach you what this kind of behavior costs you.

Stop it, Dad!

- I promise now. - Yes, you always promise, don't you?

I promise now.

I promise. I promise, Dad.

I promise. Please, stop!

- You can't do that! - Yes, I can!

- No! Don't, Dad! - I'm not your dad.

I'm not your dad!

- I'm not your dad. - Stop it!

Mom!

Bastard!

Oh, my god... I don't want to die.

Help me. I'm begging you!

Help me, I...

He's dead, Mom.

No...

What have I done?

What have I done? I didn't mean to.

God. I swear I wasn't going to do it!

Mom...

I wasn't going to...

I don't know why I did it.

God, help me! I can't...

I want to die!

It's all over. All over...

He's dead. I killed him.

I feel sick.

I'm about to throw up.

Water...

Give me water.

Thanks.

- Are you better now? - Yeah, I'm better.

What?

Look!

Please, take that off.

It's disgusting.

Go, clean up, take a shower.

We'll have to lift him.

- No... I can't do it. - Yes, you can.

- Yes, you can. Are you ready? - Yes.

Pull up.

I thought we wouldn't make it.

Did he do it? Róbert, I mean.

- Yes. - Fucking pig.

I never thought he'd go that far.

Had he tried it before?

No, just all the constrictions.

What a creep!

And I always looked past it.

- He said he wasn't my dad. - Oh?

What did he mean?

He wasn't.

- He wasn't my dad? - No.

- Who is, then? - Doesn't matter.

- You think it doesn't matter to me? - Yes, sorry. Of course.

Couldn't you marry that other man?

No. He was married with two children.

Did Dad... I mean Róbert ever find out?

Yes. He came home one night.

You were just over one years old.

I was sick with desire for that man that night.

He asked me in jest why I was so sulky,

that one might think that I was having an affair.

I don't know what came over me.

But I turned to him and told him that's exactly what was happening.

I remember he was always good to me.

It was only in the last...

Two or three years that he started beating me.

Oh, yes. I know why he did that.

- Why? - He was madly in love with you.

Are you crazy? His own daughter?

You weren't his daughter, and he knew it.

It's like he was trying to get revenge on me with this.

The spankings were only a pretext for him to touch you.

What is that hot rod driving there?

Just some goddamn city slickers going fishing.

You think any of the farm people will notice us?

No, I don't think so.

The country folk have other things to mind than some car driving past.

This looks like an alien planet.

Yet, we're still on Earth.

Oh my god! There's a plane!

- Where? - Over there!

Have you gone crazy? It's just a bird.

It's a seagull. They're everywhere. Don't worry about it.

Good funeral procession for him.

That bird is driving me mad! Fuck off! Fuck off!

It's no use. It won't leave until we're gone from here.

I know.

Here it is.

It's huge. And deep.

- See? They'll never find the body. - No, probably not.

Well? What are we waiting for?

I guess no hymns will be performed here.

Hardly.
