"It has gone too far." "The Faroe Islands." "Get away from here." "It will be great." "Where are we going?" "I live here, with three others." "I run an institution here." "I'm a psychiatrist." "They don't seem to be..." " Insane?" " Very sick." "Are you the type who keeps in touch with your ex?" "No." "You think that's okay?" "Don't let Helle mess you up." "You have to open up more." "Move on in life." "Carl?" "You must prepare  the residents that the factory might be closed down." " What the hell?" " Might be." " Aren't you hungry?" " Yes." "Come and eat with us, then." "Hi." " I'm Eyddis." " Mattias." "BUZZ ALDRIN, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU IN ALL THE CONFUSION?" "What did he think, " " Buzz Aldrin, that first night home with his family   after returning from the moon?" "Did he crawl under the blankets   thinking that "I've actually been on the moon"?" "It must have been hard to sleep, if not impossible." "He had traveled at a speed of more than 40. 000 km/h." "Impossible to brake at that speed." "All you can do is crash." " Hi." " What are you doing here?" "Have you missed me?" "Have you slept through Christmas?" "Come on, you have to get up!" " Nice Christmas in Stavanger?" " I missed the plane." "So no." " Where have you been then?" " Here." " Here?" " Yes." "What have you been doing?" " Been into Havstein's office again?" " No, I haven't." "Havstein doesn't like it when we go into his office or his room." "Have you been into his files?" "He'll be angry at you again if he finds out." " Will he find out?" " No." " I couldn't find you in the files." " I don't exist." "Ennen." "NN." "Hi." "Hi, Mattias." " Did you have a good Christmas?" " Yes, quite nice." " Did you get to see that guy?" " He was out once." "But you're right, he seems very fond of his room." "We might have to starve him out." "Don't put any more food out here." "Hi." "Did you see what I got for Christmas?" "Fantastic." "Very good." "One minute..." " Hi." " That's one minute   and 32 seconds." "New record!" " New record all the time." "Great!" " Ready, set..." "Wait, let's see." "Ready, set - go!" "Mum, don't disturb." "I really appreciate you playing with Sofus." "I haven't seen him like this for a long time." "There aren't many other kids left in this village." " You're alone with him?" " You're thinking of his father?" "No, well..." "He's an Icelander who neither Sofus nor I have any contact with." "He was just here for a weekend, promoting some hair products." "Hair products." "We didn't buy any at the beauty parlor where I'm working." "I don't mind coming here now and then." "You shouldn't find someone your own age to play with?" " Sofus will be very happy." " I've got plenty of free time." "I heard you didn't make it home to Norway." "Ennen told me." "You didn' feel like going home?" " I missed the plane." " But do you want to go home?" "I don't know." "No." "Do you want to go home?" "No." "Listen..." "Did you tell Havstein that thing about his files?" " That I peeked into them?" " No." "I just told him that you didn't manage to get to Stavanger." "You're sure?" "I'm sure." " I'm sure!" " Good." " Which dress should I wear?" " That one." "Or that one?" "Or the other one." "Both." " No." " What?" "You've had a girlfriend a third of your life." " What's that got to do with it?" " You ought to be able to help me." "The white dress is great." "You should wear that one." "Yeah?" "The white one it is." " Good." " Yeah, nice." "Mattias." " I thought I'd have some..." " No." "Come here." " God!" "Is that right?" " You're no true Faroe Islander yet." "Eat!" "Ennen, we'll deal with that later." " You handled that well." " Shut up, Palli." "We're not allowed to be curious?" "I see..." "If you show us around, that will count in our evaluation." "Hi." "It's not such a great time." "That's the whole idea." "That our visit is unannounced." "We want to see how the factory works on an average day." "So it's not just a visit, But an unannounced inspection?" "Yes, you might put it like that." "There's no other way to put it." "Welcome to the work shop here at the factory." " This is Mattias and Ennen." " Mattias, right." " You're working as a gardener?" " He's very good at it." "He's done some nice stuff." "He's got a real green thumb." "Tell me, Mattias:" "What are you doing here at the factory?" "I'm not an early riser, I start my day when it fits me." "No, why do you live here, and not in your own place?" "Maybe I've become too dependent on the people living here." " What Mattias is trying to say..." " What is your present situation?" "What is your diagnosis?" "I'm sad." "That was the work shop." "Let's move on." "The hallway that connects all the rooms." "All have their own room." "This is my office." "I don't come here night after night just because I'm afraid of the dark." "Can't you understand that, Palli?" "I want more." "That's Anna." "And Palli." " Let's step into my office." " Can we see the residents' rooms?" "That's just a storeroom..." "He lives in a storeroom?" "Temporarily." "When you've achieved something that attracts the world's attention" "What do you do next?" "I think Buzz Aldrin wanted to hide away." "It couldn't have been easy." "Anybody who hides by crawling down into a hole   is bound to pop up somewhere else." "Sooner or later." "Hello." " Dreaming about me again?" " Of course." "It's nice." "Really nice." "Mattias..." "Are we agreed about this?" " Yeah." " No, hey..." "Are we agreed on getting better?" "Get well?" "Absolutely." "Now we have to feed the ducks." "Come!" " I don't think I'll get much better." " That's okay though, isn't it?" "Not really." "I'm starting to get sick and tired of this place." " I want to move away." " You know a better place?" "You've been here nine months, clearly you think it's fantastic." "Try living here your whole life!" "I want to do something." "You know what I mean?" "It feels like I just go around killing time here." "You've got a job." "Making wooden sheep?" "What do you mean?" "You really think I should be satisfied with this?" "This is what I should be doing the rest of my life?" "For you, this is just a temporary thing." "Like you said to those district people... "I'm just sad."" "That was just something I said." "You're using this to get over a relationship that was over years ago" "And now you're here because..." "Why are you here, really?" "Because you're cowardly." "You're cowardly as hell." "You aren't so sick or worn out that you have to stay here." "You're too cowardly to go back and continue where you left off." "I am happy here, and I'm not allowed to?" "As long as the world around you is as you expect, you feel secure." "Isn't that right?" "Hi." "Hi, Mattias." " Am I disturbing you?" " No." " Everything okay?" " I'm doing fine." " And here?" "All is well?" " No." "Not really." "I was wondering if you could help me." "With Carl." "I've tried talking to him." "It's hard to get anything out of him." "Could you talk to him?" "Sure." "But do you think he'll open up more to me?" "I really think so." "You saved his life." " You have a lot in common." " You know nothing about him." "No, not yet." "When you learn more about him,   you'll see that you have a lot in common." " Hi." " Hi." "Fleksnes!" " Is Sofus home?" " Sofus?" "Sure." "Come in." "Eyddis is dying my hair." "I was born on the same day as they first landed on the moon." " On the very same day." " Is that true?" "Just about the same minute." " Ready to assemble it?" " No point." "We won't finish it." "Of course we will." "You can be the glue master." " We're moving away next week." " I didn't know that." " Us moving is stupid, he says." " I didn't say that." "But it is." "A terribly stupid thing to do." "It's closer to my work." "And there are lots of kids your age in Tórshavn." "Don't!" "I like it here in Gjógv." "Maybe Mattias will come to visit even though we've moved." " Won't you?" " I will." "Absolutely." "And then Mattias can stay as late as he wants,   because we won't have to worry about grandparents." "No..." "Yes, I holed out from the bunker." "You know..." "Palli?" "How about we go out and play?" "Golf is the only sport that has been played on the moon." "In 1971, Alan Shepard hit two golf balls on the moon." "I had plans to hold a Faroe Islands Open Championship." "A round of golf is usually 18 holes." "The Faroe Islands is made up of 18 islands." "One hole per island." "One has to hit the ball pretty hard to reach between the islands." "But I guess it could be done." "The idea was to use a helicopter." "A helicopter could fly the players between the islands." " He's very good." " Yeah." "That's great." "Palli, I was thinking..." "Now that we're alone." "Regarding the others at the factory." "Do you know what is wrong with the others?" "No, I..." "Well, no, that's..." " With Ennen, for instance?" " No, I don't know." "She disappeared into herself   and she has never really come out again." " Is there something else?" " Talk to Havstein." "Or Anna..." " Couldn't we just talk..." " Shit!" "What's up with Ennen lately?" "She has really livened up since you arrived." "She's a completely different person." "Yeah." "There's something I'd like to ask you." "Be careful about what you do." " What do you mean by that?" " No one has told you about Ennen?" " The busses?" " What?" "No." "She was depressed, deeply depressed." "She suffers from, or suffered from feelings that she was forgotten." "So Ennen was in and out of institutions." "And then she started taking random busses." "It never failed." "Every man fell in love with her then and there." "Even though it's impossible to fall in love so fast..." "Do you know what she did then?" "She took a new bus." "Ennen showed up all over the country." "Everyone who took busses met her." "It's not..." "It's not unusual to..." "No." "She is a bit   flirtatious, in a way..." "That's just it." "Ennen is difficult to understand, if not impossible." "We're here now, anyway." "I think it will turn out okay." "I'm almost certain." "She's in good care, so..." "I haven't talked to anybody." "Just wait a minute." "Unfortunately, it doesn't look so good." "I see." "Can't we do something together?" "Not now." "Can't you ever consider that there are others here too?" "I must just stay on course..." "You just think of yourself." "What is it with you two?" "She's knitting all night to keep those "boogie" seamen away." "She's completely out of it." "I was told to find a hobby   to keep away the delusions." "Because those thoughts in my head are..." "Now I don't have golf anymore." "And that damned sport..." "But now..." "Now I've got Flight Simulator." "That's what I play now." " Hi." " Hello." "Olaf Ludvig from Sosialurin." "It might be a fine idea to do an article about you." "On the gardener who lays out people's gardens midwinter." " How did you come up with that?" " Someone gave me the tip." " You can just forget it." " Mattias." "Mattias?" "Well, Mattias?" "Impossible to hold a conversation when the music is so loud." "Do you have strong arms, Olaf Ludvig?" "Havstein told me you've been here since last summer." "He found you outside one night?" "How's it been living at a rehabilitation centre?" " How long will you stay?" " Between 15 minutes and 14 days." "No." "Stop, for Christ's sake!" "Magnusson!" "Sake?" "I don't want to." "Can't you see?" "Do you really think I want to do this?" "Write a stupid garden article for all the housewives out there?" " I'm just trying to help you." " We're doing just fine." "Yeah, right." "Sure you are." "Thanks." "My own little " " Japanese garden." "Where I can find peace and quiet " " to think and meditate." "Hi, Mattias." " What are you doing?" " What the hell are you doing?" "It's about time you got out a bit more." "Met the world again." "No one gave you the right to decide about my life." "Yes, you did, when I picked you up on the road and you decided to stay." "You couldn't face going home." "You put your life into my hands." "In contrast to most of the others living here,   it's not gone so far that you'll be sick the rest of your life." "But it will come to that if you don't open up soon." " I just want to be left in peace." " I won't let you!" "You can't run away from it all." "You have to be present!" "I didn't let you stay here so you could turn into a snot-nosed kid   who starts to cry every time someone touches his toys." "Easy now." "Calm down, Mattias." "You're going travelling?" "No, I just like to know what I'm missing." " You're Mattias, right?" " Yes." "Gunnvá, her mother." "She's talked so much about you." "When she was home for Christmas, she showed me a picture of you." "It was as if she was going to take an exam on you." "She talked about you all day." "It was like having a teenager in the house again." "And you?" "Were you..." " Are you in love with her?" " Yes." " Can I ask you something?" " Of course." "What's her name?" " What do you mean?" " Nobody knows her name." "That's alright, of course." "We just thought   that it had something to do with the busses." "That she didn't want us to know who she was." "So we all just called her NN." "Sofia." "Her name is Sofia." "Garbage" "I would have come sooner or later anyway." " What is it you're doing here?" " Planting trees." "They don't grow by themselves, we have to plant them." "And the sheep eat them." " There are plenty of trees here." " Yes, in this particular place." "You wouldn't like to come home now?" "Maybe I'll come home in the summer." "It won't be like last time?" "No, it won't." "Please." "Very nice." "You mustn't feel that I have gone behind your back." "Cause I have been talking a lot with your parents." "That's okay." "I told them what kind of place the factory is." "That it was just as well that you stayed here for a while." " I'll leave you alone." " Thank you." " What happened to you, Mattias?" " I think I just fell to pieces." " Because of Helle?" " Not just that." "It was all of it." "I just wanted some peace." "I'm doing much better now." "Sooner or later..." "There will always be someone who sees you, remembers you." "I don't need to be interviewed for what I do." "I don't need a lot of things going on around me all the time." "Mattias." "You are the most   important thing in the world to me." "You are everything that is good about my life." "You and mama." "Good morning." " Your father is doing okay?" " Seems like he is doing very well." " He's still asleep." " That's good." "You know what?" "I've been thinking." "I came to the conclusion   that I'm ready to go back to Norway in a couple of weeks." "Wouldn't it be better to wait?" "I think it would do me good to come home." "My mum and dad would really appreciate it." " But you'll come back?" " Absolutely." "I'll come to visit." "But I'm going to move back to Norway." " Is it that stuff with the newspaper?" " Absolutely not." "I just need to..." "Good morning." " Good morning." " Fine country you have here." " Did I say something wrong?" " Not at all." "I just told him   that I have decided to move back to Norway." " Really?" " Yes." " Do you want some coffee?" " Yes, please." "Nice T-shirt." " I'll see you soon, then." " You will." "Nice of you to come." "Have a nice trip." "And off he went." "Yes..." "Sofia died today." "Give me four." "Hi." " I'm Eyddis." " Hi." "You're doing alright?" "You've moved." "I was going to..." "There's been so much going on." "Sure, there's always a lot happening here." " Sofus is doing alright?" " When will you visit us?" "Anytime you want me to." "My father came to visit, we got a new resident at the factory..." "So I just forgot about it." "I'm really sorry." "It didn't matter that you didn't call." "Not much, anyway." "A bit." "It mattered a bit." "Yes it did, actually." "Good morning." "You're doing fine?" "The grass is still green?" "Why are you leaving?" "Why do you always want to be number two?" " Because of the freedom." " The freedom?" "Yes." "If nobody remembers you and nobody sees you,   you can do what you want, and then you're free." "Number two can be disappointed too." "Nobody is invisible." "Have you heard of Buzz Aldrin?" "The second man on the moon?" " The whole crazy house." " Aren't you late for a plane?" "I thought the Faroe Islands would be the perfect place to disappear." "Melt into my surroundings." "I was wrong." "Even the invisible becomes visible in the end." "It is just a matter of time."
