"Basia, we're in Sweden!" "But we don't have a place to live, Marek." "Is it yours?" "What's it called?" "It's named afterthe owner." "And what is that?" "It just so happens that the owner's name is..." " Ula!" " Just like mine!" "Bravo!" "You've won a boat!" "Can I go on it?" "Please, can I?" "can I?" "Unfortunately, kids are not allowed by themselves on boats." "Unless, they are kidnapped." "Are you coming with us?" " I'm cold." " Mommy's cold." "Cast us offthen." "Look." "This is the tiller, here you set the speed and here you change gears." "And this is how you make it go forward and backward." "Let's start the engine." "Ula, put it on." "Sit." "Sit." "Sit." " Be careful." " I'll be very careful." " Reeady?" " Yes." "Our neighbor to the southwest is Denmark." "We don't share a border but we can get there by a bridge that is called...?" "Hey, come on!" "Summer vacation is over!" "Frida?" "Öresund Bridge!" "Correct, Öresund Bridge." "Who can show us where Öresunds Bridge is located on the map?" "Maybe Ursula?" "Ursula?" "My name is Ula." "We have already discussed this." "We already have two students called Ula in this class." "Boys, Ula S and Ula P, can you raise your hands?" "We cannot have three Ulas in this class." "It will only be confusing." "If there are two Ulas, there could also be three Ulas." "I am Ula." "Please, try to understand it." "Ok, can someone else show us where Öresund Bridge is located?" "Ula, will you go on a date with me?" "I asked you not to come here." " Can I join your team?" " You are too old." "You didn't come yesterday." " I have to get back to work." " I was waiting for you." "I couldn't." "I have to get back." "Come." "Do you want one?" " Hello." " Hello." "My name is Anita." "I work in social service." "Your teacher has told me that you have been a bit upset lately." "More than usual." "Is there something you would like to talk about?" "Something that feels wrong?" "I'm not upset." "No?" "And aren't your parents arguing?" "They have been arguing, haven't they?" "No, they never argue." "No?" "Nobody is raising their voice?" "No, nobody is raising their voice." "I'm sorry." "Don't worry." "There is plenty more for you." "Could we talk about your dad?" "Ursula, you don't need to worry." "Your parents will not know about what we say here." "Do you understand?" "Has something happened to my dad?" "No, nothing has happened to your dad." "Do you know what Bris is?" "Have you heard of Bris?" "Have you?" "You can call this number if you want to talk to someone adult about anything that feels wrong or hard." "Your parents do not have to know about it." "That's good, right?" "Don't lose that." "You OK?" " Where am I?" " In paradise." " You're here?" " Where else?" " School's over for today?" " Yeah." " And how was it?" " As usual." " Is Mom home?" " I don't know, I haven't been inside yet." "Marek, I heard you bought a boat." "Yeah, he did." "Ula, what do you want for your birthday?" "A dog!" "Oh, we'll think ofsomething." "Can I hop on?" "So..." "Onto Kilimanjaro?" "To the very top." "You don't need to do that here." "Where am I supposed to work then?" " Have you paid the rent?" " Uhm." "We'll try it on later." "What are you doing?" "Put it away." "Don't." "I said, don't." "Where were you?" "None of your business." "Don't touch me." "Do not touch me." "Go back to her." "OK, I'm giving you a massage." "Give it to yourself!" "Let go of me." "OK." "Wait." "What are you doing?" "Ops!" "You were supposed to pay." "Knock it off!" "No." "Hello, is that Bris?" "Can someone come here?" "I don't know." "I am in the bathroom." "Bergsgatan 29, on the second floor." "My name is Ula Zielinska." "Ula!" "Come!" " Are you hurt?" " My back." "Some kind of a joke?" "Neighbors." "OK, who's taking a shot now?" "You." " Me?" "And you are defending?" " Yes." "Then go and keep goal." " You won't score!" " Here." " No goal!" " Once again!" "The goal post." "Catch it?" "Now wait and see." "Oh, you!" " I'm not going there." " Yes you are." "No!" " But it's not possible to get in there." " It is, it is, it is!" " See?" " Oh, no!" " Hello." " Hello." "What do you mean "nothing"?" "What is this?" " What is this?" " l've been playing soccer" "Isthis a dress for playing soccer?" " No." " Ula," "I'll never sew anything for you again." "You have my word on that!" "Stop it." "Take it off." "I think that you and I could have a little talk, huh?" "Does it hurt?" "Does your mother hit you?" "No one is allowed to hit children, do you know that?" "I know." "May I take a picture of your back?" "I will zip up your dress now." "Nobody will ever know about ourtalk." "I promise." "Ok." "I will leave now." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "Always be yourself." "Thank you." "Thanks." " What did you get?" " A dog." "What will we call it?" " Poo." " Beautiful!" "I would like to put a proposal to you." "Would you like to dance a waltz with me?" "Or a polka?" "Or maybe a tango?" "Hello." " Hello." " Hello." "Ursula, could you bring your favorite toy on Monday?" "The one you like the most." " Ula..." " Yes?" " I love you." " I love you too." " I miss you a lot." " I miss you too." "How is school?" "OK." " Do you learn?" " A bit." " So, dear." " Mommy." " Still breathing?" " Who?" " You!" "I'm hanging on in there." " Oh yeah?" " And you?" "You know, We saw this nice wheelchair in a shop nearby." " Maybe you'd like one?" " Ula, don't." " He started it!" " "He"?" " Dad." " Exactly." " Exactly." " No." " Oh Jesus." " Mom, don't listen to him." " He hasn't changed at all." "Ignore it." " You know I'm joking." "Frankly, Marek, that is what you teach her." "But Marek is very happy today, you know?" " Extremely." " Why?" "Because he bought a beautiful boat." "I'm not joking." "You really have to come." " A boat?" " Yes." "Yes." " It's beautiful." " But why do you need a boat?" "We don't know that but it's very beautiful." "Bye grandma!" "Take care!" " Ok." "How do you turn it off?" " Here." "So what are we going to watch?" "Winnetou?" "Mom used to watch it passionately." " Seriously?" " No." "She was in love with this Cochise." "Cochise?" "!" " It was Cochise, right?" " What Cochise?" "I thought that was his name." "You are Cochise yourself, you know?" "Continue with the exercise." "Hello." "Oh, very nice." "Can I see?" "May I have it?" "Have you brought yourtoy?" "Shall we leave?" "Good." " Hello." " Hello." "You can speak Swedish." "You speak Swedish, don't you?" "Hello, my name is Björn." "Good morning." "Harriet?" "This is Harriet." "Hello Harriet." "Hello." "Ursula." "Do you know where Ula is...?" "But I've told you that a lady came after lunchtime and took her and she hasn't come back since." "Do you need help?" "No, no." "Just help yourselves." "I have made it myself." "Oh, look what a lovely cake, Ursula!" "Come here!" "Have a bite." "Thank you." "Would you like some lemonade?" "Ann has already seen her room." "May I also have a look?" "Ofcourse." "Isit good?" "Good." "Well, Anita told me that you might have some clothes for Ursula?" "Yes, sure, they belonged to... our daughter." "I think they'll fit." "Ursula, do you like sea?" "Yes, I do." "You are going to have a very nice room Ursula." "Everything is going to be fine." "I would like you to stay here." "This will give your mom and dad time to solve their problems." "Björn and Harriet are very nice." "Isthat ok?" "But Mom and Dad?" "Mom and dad know that you are here and they will be here in a week." "It will pass quickly!" "I'll leave now." "Ann!" "We must go now!" "Thank you." "I will show you out." " Good bye." " Good bye." "Why have you taken care of her?" "That information is confidential, I cannot tell you." "You have a very nice house." "Thank you." "Well, it's a bit too big for us now." "Harriet is an architect." "She put her heart and soul into it." "Well, that was before the accident." "Now it is a bit empty." "Let go of me." "I didn't see you coming." "Come, sit down." "I've made a sandwich and some cacao for you." "I noticed you didn't have ajacket." "Could you try this on?" "Good morning." "Good morning." "You look very nice, in that coat." "Thank you very much." "We have to go." "We're going to be late." "We're a little bit late." "But this isn't my school." "This is your new school." "You'll see, you'll like it." "Does my Mum know that she'll pick me up here?" "Today I'll pick you up." "Your Mum and Dad are coming on Monday, remember?" "Why didn't they tell me themselves?" "Well, they forgot I suppose." "Hello." "Hello Björn." "Hello Ursula!" "Welcome to Lillskär." "Shall we go?" "Be good in school today, ok?" "I have a surprise for you later." "Good." " Good bye." " Good bye." " Hello Anita." " Hello." "Wait, Basia." "OK, so." "A month?" "What court?" "Ask them when they'll give Ula back?" "We'll make an appeal." "Sit down, please." "Let's step outside for a moment, Basia." "I have only 15 minutes." "Yes, yes, I'll take care of it if it takes longer, but it should be over by then." "I'm fully booked all day." "Some morning coffee would be nice, wouldn't it?" "Oh, yes!" " I can't take this." " Ok." "Basia, calm down." "Do something." "Just do something." "But Ursula called Bris!" "First you do this and then you turn this." "Ok?" "Won't Harriet come with us?" "Harriet doesn't go on boats." "I'm scared ofthe water." " Pull us out, would you." " Yes." "Here's the rope!" "Take the rope." "Bye!" "Bye!" "You don't have to go with me to the airport." "But Harriet wants to say goodbye." "But I don't like goodbyes." "Björn, you know what I think." "One has to be able to accept one's fate." "Here, have a cookie, they are good." "By the way, who bought the house?" "It was an old couple, I don't know them at all." "Isthere anything I can help you with?" "No, no, everything will be taken care of." "But, you have to take your father's rifle." "No." "But he wanted you to have it' you know that." "I know, but I don't want it." "Please, Björn, just take it." "We've talked about that." "Go and get it." "I have always wanted to be loved." "It hasn't been easy, actually." "I mean, trying to be someone else in orderto be loved doesn't make any sense." "You simply have to be yourself." "Hey, you!" "Come here!" "Say hi to Ursula." "What's his name?" "His name's Lupo." "It means 'wolf'." "Hello Wolf, I'm Ula." "Would you like him to live with you?" "For real?" "Grandmother is moving to Lanzarote." "She's asked us ifwe could take care of Lupo." "Would you like that?" "Do you promise to feed him at 7 pm, sharp, every day?" "And you have to pick up his poo yourself." "Here you go." "Thank you." "Lupo!" "Come on, Wolf!" "Sit." "Lie down." "And now play dead." "Ok, you can get up now." "You can speak Polish, but he will interpret." "You can speak Polish, but I will interpret." "Don't be emotional, no crying, no shouting, no touching." "Don't be emotional, no crying, no shouting." "Do you understand?" "Do you understand?" "If this doesn't work, I will have to stop the meeting." "If this doesn't work, I will have to stop the meeting." "I also have a right to cancel all ofthe meetings before the trial." "I also have a right to cancel all ofthe meetings before the trial." "Is that clear?" "Hi, honey." "You have to try this." "It's delicious." "Mom, eat." "Björn baked it himself!" "Ursula, don't insist If they don't want to." "What did he say?" "That you don't have to eat it if you don't want to." "Do you like it here?" "Yes." "Honey." "We can't." "The lady will be cross with us." "Can I take him with me?" "What, honey?" "What are you saying?" "Please, I will miss him." "Ursula, I cannot hear you now." "What are you talking about?" "Can I take Wolfwith me?" "I will feed him, and pick up his poo..." "She's asking about the dog." "Please." "Honey, this lady told us that you'd called Bris." "Isthat true?" "She is asking if Ursula called BRIS." "Ursula, you have to come with me." "Come on." "Can I take Lupo?" "But, dear, you're staying here." "Come on." "Ursula, come on." "Mom!" "We have made an appeal." "We must wait." "Give me your keys." " What for?" " Just do it." "I don't want to see you again." "That's fine by me." "Hello, can I help you?" "Can I help you?" "Hello." "Hello, sweetie." "Would you like some jam with your sandwich?" "I'm not hungry." "Isthere anything" "We can do for you, just..." "It can be anything." "You don't have to say anything." "I just thought..." "It's Ok if you're not saying anything." "I am fine." "She's lovely." "I never thought I would feel this way." "She's got her whole life ahead of her." "I wonder why they took custody of her." "I think we have a right to know that." "But what if she has been through something very traumatic..." "What are you thinking of?" "What is the worst thing that can happen to a little girl?" "Well, whatever that is, all we can do is to make sure she's happy with us." "Yes, of course." "I feel happy when I look at her." "Forthe first time in two years." "I'm so glad you convinced me." "All right girls!" "Come on now!" "Keep up!" "One two, one two, keep up." "Hello?" "Who is there?" "Can you go and get her?" "You have to eat before you go." "Yes, sure." "Harriet?" "She's not there." " What?" " She's not there." "Björn!" "Ursula, no!" "I went to see Ula." "I wanted to bring her back." "Come on." "Come on." "I'm sorry, today is my partner's birthday." " Good afternoon." " Good afternoon." "Why have you come to me?" "Because you are the only Polish attorney-at-law in Sweden." "I came here in 1981." "It's been a long time..." "I'll be honest with you." "I will not take your case." "Why?" "Your court hearing is in two weeks." "You will loose and I don't like losing." "What can we do then?" "Two years ago I had a case." "A family was deprived of custody of three children." "Two boys and a girl were placed with a foster family." "After a month one ofthe boys escaped." "He went straight to the police and testified that the foster father had been raping his sister." "For thirty years he and his wife had lived off taking care of children as a foster family." "Within a month the man was in prison with an eight-year sentence." "The Social Services Office was not considered at fault." "The children have not returned to their parents." "They were transferred to another foster family." "This is the last of this type ofcases that I conducted." "Then what shall we do?" "You have two options." "One: you lose the first case." "You will appeal to a higher court." "You will lose that case too." "If you still have money left you will appeal to Strasbourg, and there you have a good chance." "But it will take approximately two years." "Two years in the life of a child..." "By the way..." "Swedish law in this matter does not work outside the country." "If, by some miracle, your daughter found herself in another country." "Excuse me, I have to go back now." "Good luck." "Thank you." "Can you stop yelling at me?" "Do something yourself!" " I do, don't I?" " You are doing nothing!" "What am I supposed to do?" "!" "Stop the car!" "Ursula!" "Come here!" "Your cold will get worse!" "Let's go inside and have some breakfast!" "Ursula!" "Come!" "Go to Dad." "How are you doing here, sweetheart?" "Fine." "How are you?" "Are you OK?" "What's wrong?" "Are you ill?" "Are you ill?" "Do you want to go home?" "Do you want go home with us?" "Say something." "Ula, please answer me." "Honey, please answer me." "Do you want to go home?" "You will not tell me what to do!" "Do you go to school?" "It won't take long." "It will be fine." "We love you." "There is a cell phone inside." "We will call you, OK?" "I'm sorry, dad." "Björn, let go of me!" "Anita, take her from here." "lm so sorry." "We love you." "We love you so much." "We will never leave you here." "We will come back for you soon, OK?" "Will you wait a little longer?" "Will you?" "I'm sorry mom." "Basia, we must go." "Bye, honey." "See you soon." "I'm sorry." "Were you scared?" "It's all fine." "Are you ok?" "That was not your fault." "Dear, I'll take her inside." "Do you want to go in?" "What a lovely dress they gave you." "Anita?" "Mom and Dad never hit me." "But I saw your bruises myself." "I had slipped in the bathtub." "You know, Ursula, sometimes when you've been through something really scary you just want to forget it." "Ursula?" "Ursula, open the door." "Ursula, what are you doing in there?" "Are you ok?" "I was peeing." "Has something happened?" "Have you done your homework?" "Half of it." "I will do the rest later." "Can I play with the dog first?" "If you wear your coat." "See you." "Yes, sure." "Here you go, Woolf." "Ursula, come here." "I was with Wolf, I fed him." "Do you miss Basia and Marek?" "It's totally ok." "You know, when I was a child, my parents got a divorce." "At the beginning, I missed my father a lot." "You need time." "I know." "Next time when you feel sad or anything, just talk to us." "It's always better to talk than to run away." "I'm sorry I went away on that boat." "It was a stupid thing to do." "Don't think about that." "All is well that ends well." "I like you a lot." "You have a very nice house." "We want to ask you about something." "We would love you to stay with us here." "How would you feel about that?" "You don't have to answer now." "Think about it for a while." "Yes, I want to stay with you." "Are you tired?" "A bit." "Go to bed if you want to." "Good night." "Good night." "Sleep tight, honey." "Would you like a glass ofwater upstairs?" "No, thank you." "Goodnight, mom." "You look bad." "Cause that's how I feel." "Just say a word and I'll help you." "Ula, what happened?" "Say something." "How long could she have had it?" "I have no idea." "Since she arrived?" "I don't know." "And are you sure it was Basia who picked up when you called?" "Well, I cannot be completely sure." "Answer." " No, I'm not going to answer!" " Reight, don't answer." " Let me see the number?" " No." "Fuck, they are here." "What!" "?" "They are here!" "Wait." "What are you doing?" "Where...?" "Björn?" "Björn, what are you doing?" "I'm not going to have a fight with him again." "This time there might be fifteen Poles outside." "Turn offthe lights." " But..." " Turn offthe lights!" "Harriet!" "Come outside." "Ursula." "you said you wanted to stay with us." "I lied." "Do you understand?" "I lied!" "Why haven't you called the police earlier?" "We were in shock." "Now I have to report this!" "We wanted to help a child not steal one from her parents." "I don't understand you." "I'm doing myjob!" "Could you please step out ofthe car." "Could you please step out ofthe car." "Step out ofthe car now." "Jonas, let's bring them to the station." "But it's not him." "Where are they?" "No, it's him." "I don't understand." "I would like a Ukrainian interpreter." "I'm Ukrainian." "Where are you running?" "It was me who called BRIS." "I wanted everything to be ok." "It's ok." "I'm here."
