"Now." "You can do it." "Now." "I am done." "I am the best." "Easy there!" "Rent' you taking a shower?" "We need 3.782 euros for outstanding bills." "And I have no idea when I am going to get paid." "Didn't I tell you not to worry?" "I've taken care of everything." " You've taken care of everything?" " Yes." "Aren't you taking a shower?" "We are late." "The show and all these." "Darling, not these." "You should wear this one." "Your most beautiful dress." "Perfect!" "And you should put on these." "No, I'll put on the pink ones!" "Then I will put on the pink ones too." " For my girls." " Let's go." "What a pity they left." "Anna." "I think she misses Alex." "Hey there, silly girl, are you missing Alex?" "You shouldn't miss him, because you'll also go to Yale, to find him." "Let's go, we are running late." "FOR SALE" "Fingers crossed!" "Guys, good luck." "Hurry up. "WW UP'-!" "Five, four, three, two, one." "We are on the air." "And here we are at the semi-final." "Suspense is running high because only three... of the five kids will make it through to the final." "Let's not forget our grand prize." "A 60.000 euro scholarship for the winner's studies." "Cut!" "Commercial break!" "Baby!" "I'm a doctor." "There is no way I am putting an injured child on the air." " She is fine." " There is no way." " It's not fair!" " Please!" "There is no way!" "It's not fair!" "You did it just fine at home." "Did you have to go and out your fingers now'?" "Not here." "I love you, Kookie." "I love you so much!" "Relax." "60.000 euros for her studies." "And we lost it just like that." "We'll figure something out when this time comes." "You're not helping me." "Mom..." "look!" "You can't see anything." "MY baby!" "My darling." "I am sorry for the way I spoke to you... but I was so sorry." "You really deserved to win." "We will go back." "Will we?" "I'll learn how to grate with my left hand." "Look!" "You can't see anything." "You're my star!" "My baby!" "See?" "Only if you persist will you prevail." " Fantastic." " Bravo Anna." "And with time to spare!" "The glove shouldn't be a problem right?" "Not at all." "We can make this the theme of the replay round." "Tradition and healthy diet." "Of course." "Do you mean, that I will be on the show?" "Can you excuse us for a minute?" "Sorry... but you have to see something." "Anna is smiling." "Yes..." "Maybe Anna wanted to cut herself?" "Maybe it was just an accident." "She is the only one making such a good use of our products." "I want her on the show." "I want her too." "Every time she's on camera, the ratings shoot up." "But what if she comes up with another "accident"?" "Eva, I think you're going a bit too far." "I just can't sign for her." "Anna learned how to chop vegetables... with her left hand in one night." "She was begging us to have her back on the show... and you want to out her off?" "Shall I talk with her first?" "I would like to spend an hour with you." "I don't want to talk about what happened." "You don't need to talk." "Everything OK?" "I brought you some water, love." "OK!" "I'm going, I'm going." "Why do you have doors?" "At home we don't have any." "Anna, I would like to assure you... that whatever we say behind this door... stays just between you and me." "Do I get to stay on the show?" "Do you feel up to staying on the show?" "Since I can grate vegetables with my left hand!" "Do I get to stay on the show?" " The producer will let you know." " Shall I go to him?" "After we've spent an hour together." " I am going in first." " No, I am going in first!" "Anna, your hand." "You silly!" "Go to Anna." "Hey, Anna, how come your pot has no water?" "I want to put some oil in first, to dilute the turmeric." "Bravo." "She's fantastic." "How many years has she been playing the ﬂute?" " Five." " Well done." "But with a little warming up, you could have done even better." "Hummus with ginger." "With ginger?" " Delicious." " Did you make this?" "Anna did." "I only cook by the book and it's not easy for me." " Anna has the talent." " How did she start cooking?" "Well, when I got sick..." "One day Anna just got into the kitchen... and started making one dish better than the other." "One day, instead of boiling the cauliflowers... she baked them and they became just fantastic." "And so healthy." "I would eat her food and feel that it helped me to heal." "For the final round, we would like Anna... to make a recipe with this chocolate." "72% cocoa, organic, super healthy." "Of course." "I am sure Anna will devise something really nice with it." "She's exceptional." "How I wish she'd win!" "But where is she?" "Anna!" "Anna, what are you doing up there?" "I needed fresh pine nuts for the hummus." "Anna, stay still." "Don't move!" "Wait!" "Don't move!" "Are you OK, my baby?" "Are you OK?" "Does it hurt?" "Get well." "Four weeks." "The final round is in one week." "I can do it." "What would you say if we were to take off the cast... just for an hour, next week?" "In five days?" "What can I tell you?" "You're a doctor yourself." "Exactly, and I'll be by her side the whole time." "Would've you be able to come tomorrow for the utensil tutorial?" "Tomorrow we will be just fine." "Eva dear, we, as therapists... should only intervene if a child is at risk." "The child is crying for help and no one is listening." "If her parents aren't asking for help... there isn't much you can do." "I have to do something." "For yourself?" "No, for Anna!" "Help must be asked for, first." "Good morning!" "How are you sweetheart?" "It hurts." "Haven't we said that Kookie shouldn't be on the bed?" "Down!" "Anna what's all this!" "Anna could you please get up'?" "They are waiting for us." "It's my fault for supporting you in whatever you choose to do." "For you chose to be on this show." "Mary, please..." "Sweetheart..." "I know it hurts." "Be patient." "But didn't we say we shouldn't upset mommy?" "Perhaps it's a mistake to insist so much for a goddamn show." "Yes Leo, we're coming, we're on our way." "It's not a mistake." "Since she can't do it." "She is in pain." "She will make it." "I feel we are pressuring her too much." "No, we're supporting her." "You want her to give up as soon as things go wrong?" "If she gives up like that, she's going nowhere." "Competition nowadays is ruthless." "She should feel a little pressure, for her own good." "Sweetheart, I know you are in pain... but difficulties are to be overcome." "Come, everybody is waiting for you." "You are the star." "What's this, Anna?" "Why are you doing this to me?" "Do you want me to die?" "Then, I will die." "I am fed up of this." "Please, honey." "I don't want you to get upset." "How can't I be upset?" "She's ruining her future out of spite." " I never eat sweets." " How is Anna?" "We took two days off and she will be fine." "Take some." "How is Anna feeling?" "Over here!" "M p"" "Anna, that's rude." "I don't want to talk." "You don't need to talk, if you don't want to." "I came here for you." "A draw?" "They're from our garden." "Oh look, you're playing chess?" "Anna used to play all the time." "We weren't playing." "The pieces just fell." "They're washed." "Do you have a chess set in your office?" "To be close to her it's most important." "Please, don't drive me crazy." "Anna has a unique opportunity and I won't allow to lose it." "But if we are to get sick... let's fuck the damn show." "Like you did with the exhibition in Munich." "For six months they are begging you... and you missed all deadlines." "I wasn't ready." "When have you ever been ready?" "Never." "Bioko, I got it." "I am useless." "Just useless!" "Please." "Stop." "I am sorry." "I am sorry." "Don't you think I understand Anna is afraid?" "Who isn't afraid of failure?" "Out of fear I abandoned my studies too." "Out of fear that I wasn't good enough." "And here I am from top researcher on pathogenesis... writing prescriptions at a rural health center... plus without being paid for four months now." "I don't want Anna to follow our steps." "Anna will go to the final and win." "She is the best and she simply deserves it." "Anna, I would like you to stay in this room... and try to figure out what is concerning you." "The door is locked." "Yes." "Is coming." "And I..." "" I" What?" "I wet myself." "Every time I lost at chess." "Leave me alone, don't touch me." "Anna look at me." "I'm Eva and my door is never locked." ""W." "What is it sweetheart?" "Did you finish earlier?" "What is it, love?" "Do you have fever?" "I want to lie down." "I think Anna may need some rest." "I'd like to see her again." "Again?" "Would you like to?" "It's important." " Okay." "What time?" " The same time." "What did you talk about yesterday to upset my child like that?" "What happened, Mary?" "Do you know what Anna did last night?" "She took a pillow and rubbed it between her legs." "I was trying to stop her..." "and she wouldn't." "I don't even want to think about it." "She's 11." "She's never done something like that before." "What did you talk about yesterday?" "I'm sorry Mary, but I can't betray her trust." " Take a seat." " This can't be happening." "I need to know." "I'm her mother." "Perhaps Anna is trying to tell us something." "Like what?" "Children don't talk easily." "Take a seat." "What did she tell you?" "Did she tell you about the show?" "Why suddenly she doesn't want to be in it?" "Take a seat, Mary." "I would also like to ask you a few things." "What?" "Who did Anna play chess with?" "What does this have to do with anything now'?" "Anna was crazy about the show... and suddenly she behaves in the most weird way." "What did you talk about yesterday?" "I need to know." "Who does Anna play chess with?" "She doesn't, she abandoned it." "I'm answering your questions... but I'm not getting any answers to mine." "When did she stop playing?" "We don't seem to understand each other." "To help my child, I need to know what did you talk about." "Who did Anna play chess with?" "With Alex." "Did she talk to you about him?" " HOV is Alex?" " The son of our best friends." " Where is he now?" " In the States." "His father just became full professor at Yale." "They left about a month ago." "A very fine family." "Which was Anna's relationship to Alex?" "He's 17, she's 11, he was like a brother to her." "And that's that." "It's important that I see Anna again." "To tell her what exactly?" "Perhaps Anna wants to tell us something." "I asked you to help Anna overcome her fears about the show... and not open up subjects that are beyond her age." "Anna is at a critical point." "She needs support, not confusion." "Please, stay away from my child." "Mom?" "Aren't we going to Eva?" "My head is killing me." "Do you need to lie down, mommy?" "It will go away." "Anna?" "What's wrong, sweetheart?" "Did something happen with Eva?" "Did Eva say something that upset you?" "Come here." "My love, listen to me." "Do you promise that if something's wrong you'll tell mommy?" "Do you promise?" "You are my sunshine, you're my only joy... you are everything in my life." "That's a special order of the Instantiations' family." "It was never put up for sale." "Are you the son?" "You should have been dressed by now." "I need to dry her up." "Anna, we are late." "Get her down." "They postponed it once because of you already." "Don't!" " How did it happen?" " I got paid." "I feel such a relief." "I would also feel a great relief if you two would stop fighting." "The young lady over here who is truly whimsical!" "Mary, dear, is it so hard to understand... that Anna is afraid?" "What is she afraid of?" "That having a hand in plaster, she won't make it." "Is that it sweetheart?" "You have nothing to fear, as today there won't be any cooking." "They will just show us how to use some utensils." "Come on, sweetheart, let's get dressed." "Anna, if you don't get dressed right away... the dog will go to a kennel!" "NOW!" "Give me Kookie!" "The candy thermometer is very sensitive... and helps us get the exact temperature we need for our recipe." "You will now try it by dipping it into water, milk and oil." "Anna." "Focus!" "Bathroom." "I know what food your body needs." "How are you'?" "Kookie." "Just a bit longer." "Calm down, Kookie." "You filthy disgusting creature." "Ma." h', firmly"" "You are not my daughter, you filthy disgusting creature." "Stop it, Mary." " She's your child." " You filthy creature." "Maw, Stop m" "Mary, stop it!" "Calm down yourself!" "Please, calm down!" " Take her to the vet." " Now?" "She may have an internal bleeding." "I'm sorry, sweetheart." "I didn't mean those things I said." "I want you to know that I love you very very much, sweetheart." " Here we are." " Welcome." "Where is Anna?" "Anna?" "You can do it." "Checkmate." "Anna!" "Let's go." "She must be somewhere around." "Anna!" "I don't want you to say that you found me here." "Are you scared of something?" "My mom mustn't find out." "What do you fear it may happen if she finds out?" "She will get sick." "Thank goodness Eva found you!" "Where did she find you?" "I asked you something and got no reply." "Sweetheart..." "where did you go?" " It's not ready." " It's not?" "Leave me alone!" "What brings you here?" "I want to stay here tonight." "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are." "Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky." "When the blazing sun is gone, when he nothing shines upon." "What exactly are you doing in here?" "You are sly and dangerous." "What sort of a therapist are you?" " Listen..." " Listen to what?" "You're driving my daughter crazy." "From the moment she set foot in here... she's been getting weirder and weirder." " Please..." " I'm going to report you." "You'll lose your license to practice for ever... and you won't ever be able to go near another child." "Not ever!" "He kept poking things into me!" "He kept poking things into me!" "All the time." "Alex poked things into me whenever I lost at chess, all the time." "All the time." "I'll make mincemeat out of the asshole." "I am smoking." "I shouldn't have accepted the food..." "Why did I hug her like that?" "Eva, where are you now'?" "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are." "Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky." "It's my fault." "It's my fault." "Don't worry." "Difficulties are to be overcome." "Mom!" "It's going away." "Why didn't you tell us, sweetheart?" "Why?" "Why?" "He would have hurt Kookie." "I am going to the States to send this asshole to prison." "He won't escape that easily." "Sweetheart, I won't allow anything bad to happen to you... from now on." "We will always be close to you, always." "As far as the show... enough with the pressure." "Let's forget about it." "Forget about it?" "And the final?" "You don't need to go." "I want to go!" "You don't need to, sweetheart." "It's my fault." " I put too much pressure on you." " No you didn't!" "Anna!" "Enough with this stupid show!" "Even mom is telling you." "Sweetheart, you are the only one that matters for me." "M!" "U.'" "Kookie." "No, don't." "What did you do?" "You filthy, disgusting creature." "You're disgusting!" "What did you do?" "Anna!" " Bring her to a kennel now." " Watch how you talk to me." " We are late." " It's stuck." "Put on this." "No, this one that mommy likes." "Okay." "Ready?" "M p"" "Hardhat is this wonderful taste?" " Let me taste it too." " Will I win, mommy?" " By a mile." "What on earth have you put in it?" "Marjoram." "The judges will be speechless." "You should be careful." "It doesn't hurt." "I am fine." "Hurry up, Anna." "You're the last one here." "Yes, but I'll be the one to come first." "She's a born professional." " Dad, let's go home." " What?" "I picked oregano instead of marjoram." " We can't go now!" " You go." " We have no time." " Please." "Just use the oregano." "You'll make it." "Dad don't." "Anna, go to your counter!" "Leo, what's wrong?" "BASED ON TRUE EVENTS"
