Babyteeth (2019) - full transcript

When seriously ill teenager Milla falls madly in love with smalltime drug dealer Moses, it's her parents' worst nightmare. But as Milla's first brush with love brings her a new lust for ...

Smoking is not allowed at this

station, or on the train.

Like everyone's wearing

strapless to the formal now

so...

Yeah, that's good,

'cause it's a bit, like

I don't know,

that would suit you.

I reckon I'm going to say

something to Mrs. Martin.

Seriously, she need to get her

scales right

and everything, like...

No! You can't!

Dickhead!

Milla!

- Doors closing, stand clear.

- Milla!

Damn!

Your hair's like, uh...

What?

Your hair's like bangles

or something.

Bangles?

Like with the light,

it's like bangles, it's...

Damn.

Yours is nice too.

Yeah, but look at this.

Look at that, see.

I cut myself. See?

I had to get on like a weird

angle to get to that bit.

- And then I...

- Can I feel?

Yeah.

- Feels like snakeskin.

- Ooh! Yeah.

Oh, shit, there's blood...

Oh!

- It's so stupid.

- It's okay.

I'm just gonna wait over there.

Shit, it's gone on your...

- Oh no, it's fine. Seriously.

- It's gone on your shirt. Here.

- Happens all the time.

- Just lay down for a minute.

I got you.

Passengers on platform four,

the next train...

You just find

a little bit of sky.

Sorry, could you just

take it off my face.

It smells.

- Is there blood in my hair?

- Nah.

- Oh, there is a lot of blood.

- Get up.

Hey, um,

I hate to ask you this

um, I've just been kicked out

of my house and...

- Evicted?

- Yeah, evicted.

And, uh, I just,

I'm sort of trying

to put some money together

to get a bed

in a shelter for the night...

Why did you get evicted?

Just because I got behind

in my rent. I hate to ask you.

You just seem like a really nice

person.

How much?

Uh, just whatever

you can manage.

It doesn't have to be much.

Just 'cause I saved your life

or whatever.

- I've only got 50.

- Fifty! That's too much!

- I can't...

- I can split it.

Uh, no, no, no.

Fifty's okay.

Hey, you want to take this one?

If I give you 50,

you have to do something for me.

You know she's playing easy

listening in the reception?

No wonder your patients

are so tense.

- Is my time up?

- Not quite.

I'm just boring you.

- It's quarter past.

- Yeah, alright.

- Really?

- When's your next client?

4:30.

It's just she tends to be early.

Oh, let's just do it.

Don't you think?

It's the last thing we're going

to feel like doing next Tuesday.

Hm!

Hm!

While I remember...

Take one of these with food.

These are the same things that

are in the blue bottle, yeah?

And, darling, start taking an

Ativan in the morning as well.

Just for the next few weeks,

alright?

- I love this bra.

- Hm.

Couch or desk? Hm?

Oh.

She looks like a little kid

here.

Do you know

that was five years ago.

I don't remember

this being taken.

She looks so pissed off.

- She does not look pissed off.

- She does.

That is, no, she does not.

It's the sun across her face.

That is practically a National

Geographic standard photograph.

How are you doing

with that sandwich?

Many of my patients have said

that it looks like

a professional photographer.

Yeah, but they are crazy, Henry.

She's gonna be okay.

- Can you just move your leg.

- Yeah.

- Does that hurt?

- No, babe.

I've got to answer that.

- I have to answer that.

- Uh-unh!

Really?

I'm sorry.

Uh, can you just get her last

MRI scan ready for me please?

No, there's a more recent one.

There's a more recent one

than that.

But that's... that's the one.

- Are you okay?

- Mm-hm.

- You gonna pick her up now?

- Yeah. I'll see you tonight.

Oh, fuck. I love you

Fuck!

- We've got to go.

- Why?

Wait!

My violin! My violin.

Duncan Abrahams is big

but he doesn't throw himself in.

Oh, I know. Hello! Hello!

Oh, I know,

I'm sorry we left you...

He's got reach,

but he can hardly...

Come here, Zach.

Mum.

Hey, Zachy.

Uh, I'd like to report

a break-in.

Fuck you, mum!

You've got...

...little trimmings

on your face.

They're like, so pretty.

- Like little gold...

- Just have your water, mum.

What's it called?

Is this a... style?

I was going for rat's tails.

You're a hairdresser,

are you, Moses?

Mum trains Bichons.

And that's how you know

about rats, is it?

That's why I've got access

to clippers.

They're poodle clippers,

but I use them on me as well.

I mean, you get a result

you're happy with

using poodle clippers?

They're just like regular

clippers, mum.

Bit louder maybe.

They're probably a little bit

less accurate, I imagine.

No. No.

We were competitive.

Mum's a three time state award

winner with her bichons.

Oh, wow.

How old are you, Moses?

- I'm twenty...

- Sixteen.

- ...three.

- Twenty.

I'm twenty three.

Well...

I'm a bit freaked out by that.

But, um, lucky for everyone

I forgot I'd taken a Zoloft

when I took two Xanax

while I was waiting for you

at the hairdresser to show up

thinking you must've been

abducted

because why else

would you not even come?

We know that she's okay now.

Don't we?

- God, two of those blues.

- Right?

Those ones you gave me.

Though I'm feeling

very relaxed right now.

Feels like we...

I'm havin' a stroke.

I can't feel this.

You look like a different

person.

Good.

What have you done

with my daughter?

I killed her.

Oh, my God.

She's got a great shaped head

for it.

We were nervous.

I mean, well, I was.

I was nervous,

because she was very overdue

and had to be, have those, um...

What's that word?

Um... What do you call 'em?

What's... what's that word?

The... Henry, what is the,

what is that word?

- The...

- Vase.

- Vase?

- Forceps.

She had to be induced but then

they used the forceps.

And she started pulling them

right up inside me

because she did not

wanna come out.

And I was ripped to shreds.

- But we got in here, and we...

- Oh, my God!

Anna. Anna, let's go for a walk

around the block.

Sorry, Milla.

I am so high, right now.

You've got blood in your mouth.

- What?

- Your mouth is bleeding.

Oh, fuck.

I've had this loose tooth.

Not a baby tooth though,

only Milla has baby teeth.

And it's an aberration

for someone as old as me.

Which one is it?

This one. At the back.

- Show me.

- There.

Oh! Hi there, little guy!

- Get away from her!

- Mum!

Ahem. Sorry, Moses.

Don't apologies to him

for me.

- Why is he even here?

- He's my guest!

N... no.

No smoking.

- Not in front of Milla!

- I'm sorry.

- Outside! You take can it outside!

- Mum! Mum...

Mum, he... You don't,

you don't have to go outside.

Do you have that, um...

Oh, yeah.

Um... Yeah. Here.

Here.

Thanks for dinner.

- I'll see you round.

- Where?

- Around.

- You don't have to go.

Henry! Henry!

Fucking hell.

It's a bit flat sweetheart.

- It's still a bit flat.

- Henry!

You fucking mongrel.

Henry!

Who is she?

We're gonna have to move.

Henry!

We're lucky Gidon

can fit us in this morning.

Maybe he can give you some

theory you can carry on with.

Tell Ann that we're still aiming

to do the exam in March.

Milla!

What's wrong with you?

What do you think's

wrong with me?

You can't treat things

like this.

What about you?

You were disgusting yesterday!

Mill!

That boy had problems!

So do I!

Bye, darling.

- Hey.

- Hello.

Oh, shit! Shit, shit. Fuck.

Fuck! Bit of ash.

You shouldn't smoke,

yo... you know that.

- Yeah. I need both hands.

- No.

Because, you know,

you're pregnant, so...

No, they did a study about that,

actually it's totally fine

as long as you don't smoke

tailor-mades

in the first trimester.

- Are you serious?

- Yeah.

- I read it online.

- No, that's bullshit.

There's no such thing

as a safe cigarette.

It's not bullshit,

I read it online.

Thanks.

See you round.

Henry!

- I've lost my dog.

- Hm.

Probably just out, you know

checking out

his new neighborhood.

Yeah. Hopefully not stuck

to someone's bumper.

Henry!

Henry!

- I'm Toby.

- And I'm Henry.

I... that's my name, Henry.

- No, you're not.

- Yeah. Henry James Finlay.

But Henry's a dog's name.

Why didn't you say something?

- Bye, Toby.

- Bye, Henry.

Go to hell.

Truly, I never hear

anything like, huh.

Everything you touch

you destroy.

Hm!

Oh! Here we go.

Who did this to you? Huh?

My boyfriend.

Ah! You have boyfriend now?

What kind of boyfriend

give you mange?

Well...

...he's actually a wild dog.

You know, with this new look,

you need something...

...you need something like...

...something like this.

Eh?

Hm, hm, hm!

Try, try, try. Yeah.

Hey. Where your brother is?

Hey, why are you not at school?

You want to wait in here?

Inside?

Come on, come on, yeah.

Yeah, come on, come on.

Come on. We have biscuits!

We have coffee!

Dancing girls!

- What's your name?

- Tin Wah.

Taking the day off school,

Tin Wah?

- Missed the bus.

- Yeah, right.

Ah, you know this?

Eh, here.

Put your chin here.

Like that. Yes.

Comfortable.

Comfortable.

Shh!

Don't move.

Don't you fuckin' move.

It's okay.

Don't come any closer.

Shh! Don't move.

Don't fuckin' move.

That'll just make you feel sick.

That'll just make you sick.

These ones have got

codeine in them

these ones will make you

feel calmer.

- Mum!

- Ah! Just get out.

- I won't tell anyone. Go!

- Mum!

Coming sweetheart!

Go, go, go.

- Milla! Henry! Henry!

- Shh!

Hey! Shut up. Shut up.

- Just get out! Get out!

- Alright!

Milla, don't come in here.

Go back to your room. Now!

Moses?

- Oh, Milla.

- Are you ripping us off?

Oh, this is so bad.

- Oh, God.

- He was in the kitchen.

- Have you called the police?

- No!

When would I have had a chance

to call the police, Henry?

If you call the police

we're totally entering

the cycle of abuse, Henry.

That is 100% your fault.

Please, dad. I won't be able

to respect you if you do.

What's his... What's your

surname? I'll call his parents.

- Please don't.

- He's been thrown out of home.

- It's complicated.

- His mum's troubled.

Then I have to call the police.

I just don't think

that's right for him.

Milla, he threatened me

with a meat prong.

You threatened my wife

with a meat prong?

No, I wouldn't have

done anything.

Mum, I'll... I'll do anything.

I will.

I'll... I'll... I'll practice

the violin

and I'll go to support.

And the fucking formal, I'll go.

Can he just please stay?

Anna, we can't do this.

He was remarkably inept, Henry.

And he's probably harmless.

He's a drug addict.

Don't pigeonhole him like that.

Hey, thanks for being

so kind to me.

You're so kind to me.

- I lost my hair.

- It looks cool.

It's like way better

than the one that I gave you.

Anna, if there's no consequences

he's going to be

back here again...

- Anna? Anna!

- What?

I just need you to listen to me

and think this through.

I didn't invite him here, Henry.

The boy is desperate.

I was dreaming about you

actually

when you came in.

You were dreaming about me?

Yeah.

N... not...

No, we weren't doing anything...

You were just...

...you were just

sort of... there.

It's morning.

He could stay for breakfast.

Milla!

Breakfast.

He must have fallen off his bike

or something.

He's got this scar.

- Morning.

- Morning.

Sit down.

- Sorry about last night.

- Do you have a girlfriend?

Uh, I wouldn't call her

a girlfriend.

- How old is she?

- She's 26.

Sounds very appropriate.

- You're making crepes?

- Mm-hm.

Well, well.

So, Moses, what have you got

planned for the day?

You, uh,

you working at the moment?

Not in any formal way.

And, um, informally?

What do you do?

All different things.

Oh. Mm-hm.

You think there's something

that I should be doing?

No.

I don't think the world would be

this big or weird

if we were meant to choose

just one thing.

I think as soon as people start

doing that they become obsessed

with functionality

instead of is it beautiful?

Hm, it's true.

That is what happens.

I'm not ready to be functional.

Of course that doesn't mean

you have to be dysfunctional.

Henry!

What is it you do, sir?

He's a psychiatrist.

I guess you think that you can

pin me like that.

- Mill, you better get ready...

- Having my breakfast.

Sorry.

Don't leave.

I can drop you at home

after this Moses.

Oh, no, I... I don't want to

put you out...

No, no trouble.

I can do it after I've dropped

Milla at school.

Hey, Moses, I don't know if you

make a habit of this or not

that is befriending girls

that are significantly

younger than yourself.

But Milla's in a very

vulnerable situation...

Goddamn.

Fuck!

Henry, can you grab his collar?

- Yeah.

- Sorry. He's a car-chaser.

No problem.

Hey, um, can you come and stand

on a stool for me?

- All my lights keep blowing.

- Um...

I don't trust myself within five

meters of a stool at the moment.

Um, I've just, I've got...

- I've got patients that are waiting.

- Okay.

Okay.

- See ya.

- Bye.

Henry.

I wanna see you again.

No way.

Milla!

Okay, bye, mum.

You'll let me know

and I'll come and get you

if it's too much.

Bye.

- Where do you live, Moses?

- Uh, just drop me up here.

Oh, no, I'll take you home.

Thanks for the lift,

Mrs. Finlay.

Moses!

Thank you.

I don't want you near

Milla again.

Yes, alright.

I felt my, my body go cold.

Like I knew.

If I'd have just said...

God, if I'd just said don't.

If I'd just said

don't leave me...

J... Jenny can I,

would you just ex...

...just excuse me

for one moment, please.

Mm-hm.

I'm gonna change that bulb.

- Thanks.

- Right.

Um, hold on a sec.

- Got it?

- Yeah, not yet.

Ah, there we go.

- Fuck!

- Fuck! Fuck!

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God.

- No, no.

The electrics in these houses,

they're fucking crazy.

- Can you sit down?

- Oh, no, I'm okay.

I'm so sorry, Henry.

I'm so sorry.

- Sit down. Please sit down.

- I'm okay.

- No, I'm okay, I'm okay.

- Please, sit down.

- I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm fine.

- God!

- Hope you're not brain damaged.

- No, I'm fine.

Can I get you some water? Do you

want me to get you some water?

- I'm fine.

- Fuck. Are you allowed water?

What's that rule

with hair dryers?

Oh, you can see

straight into our house.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Okay. Can I just...

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- Your hair's sticking up.

Can I just...

Can you wait a second?

Wait, I've got something

that will be perfect.

This is gel,

but it smooths the hair.

Um, can I...

Okay, you do it.

Just don't be shy of it,

i... i... it goes completely...

Actually, no, let me, here.

Was that your boyfriend dropping

you off this morning?

Yeah.

Are you bringing him

to the formal?

Think so.

What school does he go to?

He's left school.

My boyfriend's 18.

I love your wig.

I wanna get extensions

for the formal.

- Cool.

- Yeah.

- Can I try it on?

- No.

Just to see how I'll look

with long hair.

- Just for a second.

- No.

Please? I'll be quick.

I'll give it right back. Please?

Ha-ha. Yeah?

Oh, my God.

I look so different.

It's to show my hairdresser.

Oh, yeah, I love that.

It's better on you.

Oi!

- What're you doing here?

- What're you doing here?

- It's my school.

- It's my school.

It's an all girl's school.

- Shit.

Hey!

Stop it.

- Milla?

- What?

Where have you been?

- Ah, with Scarlett.

- Hey, sweetheart.

- Hi.

- Feeling okay?

Mm, okay.

You should invite her over.

Or is her mum still paying her

to be on that paleo diet?

Mum, um...

...I need some money

for tickets to the formal.

- Okay.

- Okay.

We'll have to go shopping

for a dress too.

Do you have any... any ideas?

Mm-hm.

Maybe we could take tomorrow

morning off and...

...go shopping.

I don't want to miss

any more school.

Are people taking partners, or...

Oh, don't!

Th... that's because

foreign policy

in this country is based

on this small mindedness.

Would you like me to ask

Andrea's son?

Leif?

I'm not going with Leif.

...especially about

this strange

effusive character

that was Mozart.

It's unique music

for expressing

tragic sentiment.

Always with open-eyed wonder

for the world.

Never is it cynical.

It can be dark,

it can be menacing

but essentially

it's extraordinarily

optimistic music.

And when Mozart is at his peak

and sometimes he doesn't

always reach his peak

but when Mozart does write

at his peak

such as the "25th Symphony"

you're dealing with something

that's indescribably

extraordinary.

Um, this is an exploration

of the music of Mozart...

I think something in you

is changed.

What could it be?

I see the same in your mother

when she is in love.

Is when she is becoming

drunk with it.

When she met dad, you mean?

- You were crazy about her.

- Of course.

- We play Shostakovich together.

- Were you together?

You never observe

this crescendo.

- Were you?

- Look.

How many times I underline.

You're not so breathless

this time.

Come, lifting the wings...

When you play this with focus

it can make the heart so big.

When you do bird calls

is so stupid.

What're you looking at?

Piss off

Hi. Hi, Mrs. Finlay.

Is Milla here?

- No. She's not.

- I brought her these.

I brought her a present.

You weren't in school.

I didn't go today.

Did you run here?

I've been playing basketball.

- Do you want to do something?

- No. She has to rest.

- We can sit out back.

- No.

Milla. Milla.

- What are you thinking?

- What?

Well, can't you see

the state he's in?

Sorry, I couldn't find a cup.

I wanted to ask you something.

Uh-huh.

Will you come to my school

formal?

Aren't I a bit old for it?

No.

Do I have to wear a suit?

I don't think so.

I'd like to wear one.

Oh, my God.

My heart's beating so fast

it feels like having a heart

attack or something.

Feel that.

I didn't think

it would be like that.

- I think I'm going throw up.

- Hey?

Mum!

- Mum!

- Are you alright?

Can you get me an Ondansetron?

Sit up. Sit up. Sit up.

Can you sit up? Milla.

I know you have it.

It was right next to the phone.

Give it to me right now.

That's not it.

Will you still come

to my formal?

- No, he won't.

- Sorry.

- Mo?

- No, he won't Milla.

Have some self-respect.

Is that why

you hang out with me?

Yes.

Is it the only reason?

Is it?

You have to leave Moses and you

can never come back here.

Sit up, honey.

Sit up, honey.

Come on. Have another sip.

Fuck!

Fuck it! Fuck!

- Yeah, nice. Yo.

- Hey, Mo, Bambi's here.

Hey?

The hell are you doing here?

What the hell

are you doing here?

Does your mum know

where you are?

Does yours?

You can't hang.

I've got to go to work now.

Tracy Marrow?

Yes, sir.

- Cheers mate.

- Yep.

My brother's doing a party

tonight. You should come.

Alright.

Where's it at?

- Brian's place.

- Oh, yeah.

Hey, we won't stay here long,

okay?

Unless it's really fun.

You're really pretty.

I love this.

Are you avoiding me?

No.

Good.

Hey, Mill, do you want to...

Mill?

- Do you wanna go dance?

- Yeah.

I'll meet you in there.

Are you babysitting?

Hey.

Hey.

Can you get me a drink?

Hey. Hey! Are you drunk?

- Where's your girlfriend?

- Hey?

Where's your girlfriend?

Hey, look at me. Look at me.

Fucking loser.

Hey! Fuck! Fuck off!

Hey!

You okay?

What is this?

What did you take? Mill?

Vodka.

Are you allowed to drink

on your medication?

It's never come up.

- I'm gonna ring your parents.

- No.

No. Not yet, Mo.

Not yet.

Where's my house?

Would it be over there?

No, it's much more...

...in this direction.

You see that?

That's your school.

- Uh-huh.

- This down here is, um...

When, uh...

That's, uh, where we were today.

Moses, do you like me?

Obviously.

But do you like, like-like me?

Hey.

It's complicated.

I don't wanna hurt you.

So don't.

I'll be back in a minute.

- I'm coming with you.

- No, no. No, no.

Go back to sleep.

Go back to sleep.

She didn't take any

of her medicine?

I hope he doesn't just stick

a needle in her arm.

Why did she not at least take

her phone with her?

Come on, Milla.

How did we not see this coming?

Henry?

Did you hear me?

I'm up with her every night,

Henry.

Her body gets so hot.

You're never there.

I am. I'm there. I'm always

there. You just don't notice.

Well, I can't find you.

Even now I have no idea

what you're feeling.

'Cause you don't tell me.

Tell me Henry, because I feel

so alone right now.

This really isn't about you,

Anna.

It... it... it is.

It's really not about

how you feel!

This is about Milla,

for God's sake!

Wh... what's wrong with you?

Our daughter has disappeared.

She might not make it

through the night

and, and, and

a... a I can't feel anything

because I can't breathe.

'Cause you take up all the air.

Okay, okay. Okay, okay. Okay.

Anna, I'm sorry.

Anna, darling, I'm sorry.

I just want to find...

Excuse me.

Have you seen this girl?

Excuse me.

Can you just look?

Excuse me.

Have you seen this girl?

Ha... have you seen this girl?

Let's go home.

Oh, baby.

Not yet, sweetheart.

You've got a chest infection.

Please, mum.

We have to get you better first.

It won't take long.

- You always say that.

- It's true this time.

You say that too.

Mill! Mill, stop it!

Milla! What, are you trying

to kill yourself?

He won't find me here.

Milla.

Come on, darling.

Come back here. Come on.

He... Henry, can you come

and feel the water pressure?

Henry?

Darling, I checked it

this morning. It was fine.

Well, it's very weak now.

Can you come and feel it.

Henry!

I felt it this morning,

it was fine.

Henry, just come and check

the water pressure

with my concerns in mind

and see if it's too weak.

It's just a basic conjugal duty.

Jesus!

Hey, there's water there.

Don't slip.

Hurry up. Come on, I've got to

get to the hospital.

Milla's obsessed with that boy.

- She's a smart girl.

- This is her first love.

- She'll get over it.

- You don't just get over it.

I'm pretty sure

that she won't be

strong enough to save herself.

- She's not like you, Anna.

- I'm not saying that she is.

What do you mean?

- It's fine.

- No, it's...

Exactly the same the same

as it was this morning.

- Have you taken your Ativan?

- It's still weak.

Have you taken your Ativan?

Because you'd better.

- I don't take them anymore.

- Since when?

Since Milla came back.

I'm off everything.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Uh-uh.

This is the worst

possible timing.

I don't want to miss anything,

Henry.

I'm fine without them, you know.

- Just my back's been...

- No.

- What're you doing?

- You're just exhausting.

Okay, it was the shower, Henry.

It's reasonable.

No. It's not reasonable, Anna.

It's... it's,

it's not reasonable Anna.

You just, you cannot

cannot, cannot, cannot,

cannot lose it yet.

You cannot.

Mm-hmm. Ah-ha.

But you see, uh, uh,

this violin is mine.

It's too big.

Milla learned that song.

Yeah.

He is in love with her.

- No, I'm not!

- You are.

You don't know yet. Eh. Here.

Here, go and get yourself

a coffee, uh

or whatever you like, huh?

Come back with longer arms

please and we will work more.

What?

It's good to see you.

Can you turn...

Can you turn to face the piano?

Please. Come on.

- Mm...

- Come on.

Oh, stop it.

Anna, please. Play with me.

I don't want to.

I believe you do want to.

Hm?

Gidon, stop... Stop it!

We can fight if you want to.

Is that why you come?

Do you remember

when we were doing the Sculhof

how I couldn't go on?

Hm.

- In Hamburg, remember?

- Hm.

Milla was five months...

...and I left her crying

with that woman

I couldn't even understand.

I wasn't ready to stop then.

I should have been the one

who was holding her.

I want that time back.

You think Milla will get better

if you stop playing?

I don't have anything else

to give.

Fuck the tiny gods

in your head, Anna.

Milla's mother plays the piano.

Hi! Henry! Henry!

Henry!

Fuck! Henry!

Motherfucker.

I unpacked the cups last night.

Do you wanna come

and have a cup of tea with me?

Well, what... Uh...

W... what have you been using

for the last month?

Jars.

- You alright?

- Yeah.

Me too.

This baby's such an asshole

though.

He's kicking me

all the fucking time now.

Hm.

Come here.

Oh!

That's his bum there. Is it?

Yeah, there... And shoulder.

Ah. Oh-ho! It's quite lively.

- Did you feel that?

- Yeah.

He likes the sound

of your voice.

Yeah.

I'm... sorry.

It was nice.

- Shit.

- No, no. It doesn't matter.

Sorry.

Uh, sorry.

- I brought you some...

- Yeah, I don't...

I don't wanna talk about it.

You don't get to do this, Henry.

Um, I can't... talk.

Um...

How long

has this been going on?

I just can't talk right now,

honey.

- What?

- It's the first time.

- It's the first time. It's...

- What?

Uh...

It's just morphine.

It's just a little bit

of morphine.

It's alright.

It's okay.

We're losing her, aren't we?

We're losing her.

What the fuck are we gonna do?

What are we gonna do?

Moses!

Moses, I just wanna talk.

No, no. I just...

I just wanna talk.

- Whoa! Whoa!

- I just wanna...

I said I just want...

Henry! Henry! Henry.

Is... Is she dead? Is she dead?

- No.

- Is she de...

Oh!

What were you doing?

What are you doing leaving there

in the middle of the night?

What kind of...

What kind of fucking person

are you?

And I came back.

I did. I came back for her.

It all just got fucked.

Will you come and stay with us?

I can get you what you need.

What?

I don't like you.

But Milla thinks

you're something special.

She should have the world

at her feet right now.

I can write you prescriptions.

Come and stay with us.

Ow.

Who did this to you?

- It was your dad mostly.

- No, who did it?

What? What the fuck... Oh!

It was you!

No. Just some dickheads.

- And your dad.

- No.

Do you want another beer, Henry?

Oh, you're on wine.

- Anna?

- No, thanks.

I love those chrysanthemums.

They're just like

such an explosion, aren't they?

- Hm, they're dahlias, actually.

- I love that color.

It's so deep... Excuse me.

It's so deep in the middle.

Dad! No! That was with food

falling out of my mouth!

- Well, take another one, Henry.

- First, let me finish.

- Okay.

- Ready?

Mm-hm.

Oh, that's nice.

Oh, that's very cute.

Hold on. There we go.

- How's that?

- Milla, give me a look...

Get your...

Oh, no, that'll do it.

- Okay. Okay.

- Alright. Alright. Just...

I'll get some more dahlias

tomorrow.

Oh, no, I think

we're okay for flowers.

Oh, you have to just go for it

with dahlias.

The... the... the season

is so short.

- I know.

- Uh, like, uh...

It's like horse mushroom season.

My dad used to say

that horse mushroom season

was, like, the best time

of the year.

It'd be good to meet your dad

sometime, Moses.

He'd love that!

- Uh, outside.

- Oh.

- When's horse mushroom season?

- Huh?

No idea, darling. No idea.

Stop!

Anna?

I thought I heard something?

Did you?

No.

It must have been

my imagination.

Anna? Hey, what detergent

do you use?

Are you sleep talking?

No.

These sheets smell so good.

I forgot what it's called.

Do you wanna know now?

It can wait till morning.

Moses...

...does your mother know

where you are?

No.

Don't you think she'd like to?

Milla said she used to sleep

under the piano.

Yeah. She did.

She liked the feeling

of the vibrations.

She used to just... curl up

underneath.

Like this.

And wrap her whole body

around it.

You get some sleep.

- Milla?

- Mm?

- Can I sleep with you?

- Mm-hm.

Ah! Fuck it!

It was good, Mo.

He just needs to let go

of some of the tension in his...

He's just a perfectionist.

- Mum, play with me?

- I-I don't know. I...

We can play the "Le Cygne."

- I think you should rest.

- Mum, what do you wanna play?

I just... I just I want you

to get better.

I'm going out for a bit.

Can you keep your eye on them?

Yeah.

This is the worst possible

parenting I can imagine.

Okay.

Hi.

Can you put these

in water for me?

Mill?

Do you still wanna take him

to your formal?

Do you want to?

- Try it on.

- Oh, my God.

Try it on. Try it on.

Try it on.

How is it?

It's perfect.

Turn around.

You look so beautiful.

Maybe we could just put

a dart...

I just wanna show Mo first.

I love it, mum.

You are my dream girl.

Mo, I just found this thing

under my arm.

- What sort of thing?

- A lump.

Do you know what it means?

Really, um...

- What's wrong with you?

- Nothin'.

Are you stoned?

Henry sorted me out.

- Henry!

- But it's cool.

- Henry!

- What is it? What's he...

- You've been drugging him, dad?

- Oh...

- Well, it's nothing illicit.

- What? To keep him here?

- No.

- No. It just...

It's pres...

Just, just prescrip...

Prescribed by you, dad! You've...

You've made him

into some kind of hooker.

- Well, sex isn't part of it.

- Did you know?

You'd given up

on everything else.

You think I can't take the fact

he doesn't love me back?

You can't treat people

like that.

Yeah, but Mill, it worked.

You're so stupid!

You... you think you can fix

things by handing out drugs.

I mean, my God.

I have no idea who she is.

You keep her so fucking high.

I'm off everything actually.

Except I had a half

a sleeping tablet last night.

You think you can fix things

by paying off some junkie?

You think that's what I need

from my dad?

Oh, Mill,

it's not what this was.

Mill, I'm not here

'cause of the drugs.

- They're shit anyway.

- Why are you here?

I care about you.

You're lying.

You're always

a million miles away going

"What can I get

out of this person..."

You're just being nasty.

When I met you it was like...

I can't believe it,

it was like...

...you weren't scared

of anything.

But it's because

you don't give a shit.

I mean, all that crap

about horse mushroom season!

Do you even know? Do you

even know who your father is?

Fuck you.

You're so fucking perfect.

Uh-huh.

- You think you're so perfect?

- No, I don't.

You lie all the time.

You wanna tell them?

- What?

- She's got a lump.

What?

She's got a lump.

Milla?

Is that true?

Get the fuck out!

Get the fuck out.

Go!

Stop wasting my time!

Hey, Zachy.

Hey, come and open the door.

Well, come on.

Isaac! Come on!

Hey, I just wanna see you!

I thought you were my mate!

You can't keep doing this,

Moses.

Milla...

...if you die I don't know

what I'm gonna do.

- I'm going to scream.

- Can you just hear me out?

I never went camping

with my dad.

I stayed with him one time,

one Christmas

and he hardly even talked to me.

He was working in this

restaurant where he was fucking

the manager in his car

every night

and I had to wait in the carpark

until he was finished.

I never told mum.

I told her that we slept

in treehouses and shot birds.

I want to be with you... Milla.

I don't know how to do this.

I win.

Oh!

Did you cheat?

Yeah.

Do you wanna eat that?

Can we just do one more,

until I win one?

Okay.

♪ Oh put some more sauce ♪

♪ On my fajita ♪

Mum...

Thank you.

What?

- What's this?

- This is a little sangria.

- A little bit of birthday.

- Oh.

Little bit of birthday

happiness.

And he's making...

♪ Fajitas ♪

- What!

- Ow!

Oh, my God! It is so good!

My God!

When are we having the cake?

When you have eaten

all your greens.

Hey, Mo.

I've heard that you're

a really good dancer.

Could we...

...maybe watch

some of your moves?

- No. No way!

- Isaac said...

Isaac said you did it

at a Rock 'n' Roll Eisteddfod.

Isaac! What the...

What are you doin'?

You were really good.

S... so I told her.

- For my birthday.

- Don't pull that card!

Oh, you can't refuse

the birthday girl.

Go on, pussy! He is pussy!

Alright.

Everybody, ready?

That's it. That's it.

Yeah, that's it.

- That was excellent.

- Mum?

Will you play with me?

Bravo.

Bravo! Bravo!

- Bravo.

- Hey, Henry.

- Can you sedate him please?

- Mm-hm.

Do you... Do you have a car?

- Of course.

- Okay. Shh.

- Is Toby having her baby?

- It's all good.

Oh, my God. Oh... Um...

Tin Wah! Tin Wah!

I don't think I can take

another morning, Mo.

- Do you want some morphine?

- No.

Will you do something for me?

You know I will.

Will you take this pillow...

...and just hold it

over my face?

If my body starts to tense

or it looks like

I've changed my mind,

just push harder.

That's just what bodies do,

something in it fights

but it's not me.

Hey, I'm not gonna do this.

Don't leave it unfinished.

Wait until my hips drop open

and there's no hold in my spine.

Then you can take

the pillow away.

Hey, if you want

to kill yourself

get your dad to give you

too much morphine.

It would kill dad.

This way I just stop breathing.

No. Fuck no.

I know what happens from here.

This body, it's too much.

I can't breathe.

I can't breathe.

And it just...

It gets more painful, Mo.

Please don't ask me to do this.

Please.

I need you to help me.

- Can I have a sip?

- Yeah.

I'm sorry, Mo.

I know you love me too.

Not any more, I don't.

Don't stop pushing.

Your body has to bear me down.

Okay?

Ow.

You okay?

[breathing heavily[

You birds are crazy.

- Should I make crepes?

- No.

Don't you like my crepes?

No, they're fine. They're

just always such a big deal.

Well, I don't make them

as punishment.

Oh, this cake is disgusting.

Do you think they're having sex?

I do.

Did you hear something?

Oh...

Can you just knock on the door

and give her this?

- No!

- Come on. Just...

Henry, come on...

- No.

- Just...

Just give the door a little tap.

Okay.

- Good morning, sleepyhead.

- Good morning.

Is Milla awake?

I didn't hear her in the night.

Did she sleep through?

She, uh, woke up at about 4:00.

And then she went to the,

went to the toilet.

She didn't need her morphine?

- No.

- That's great.

That's like the first time

in about six weeks?

That's, that's great.

I was going to make you a tray

to have in bed.

Just gonna finish my cigarette.

Oh. I thought you could

eat together. Doesn't matter.

She's got to get up and eat

something in a moment anyway.

She was dead already.

You come in here and you...

And I woke up and she was,

she was already dead.

She looked peaceful.

Not now she doesn't.

She doesn't look so peaceful now

with her eyes rolled back

like that.

- I closed them.

- Well, they opened!

Why didn't you call me?

Why didn't you tell me?

We could have... We could have...

We could have...

We could have resuscitated her.

She might... She might...

maybe she...

She was dead.

She was already dead.

Will you stop smoking

in my house, you fuck!

You fuck!

I didn't get to say goodbye.

She didn't say goodbye to me.

You come in here

and you smoke us out.

You!

You're the one

who got to hold her

you're the one

who got to have her last breath.

And you use it...

And you use it all up!

I didn't say goodbye.

I didn't say goodbye.

Alright, hey,

are you guys ready?

Ready?

Ah, ready?

One, two...

Sorry.

- What did you do?

- Sorry.

I accidentally went like this.

Okay, you ready?

Isaac!

Isaac, come and be in the photo.

Sit in the middle.

Middle.

- Middle.

- Oh, Jesus.

Seriously, mum's got a bit of

hypervigilance

about the beach, mate.

Go.

You all ready?

Got it. Got it.

Come here, mate.

- No.

- You're coming with me!

What're you doing?

What're you doing?

- How is it?

- No, no, no. Stop.

Stop, stop, stop.

Here we go. Oh, my God!

Oh, yeah, I got this idea.

Okay. Okay.

This is good. Mill? You ready?

I'm tired, Henry.

Darling, I know,

but, but you can just...

Dad.

I'm tired.

You know we'll be okay.

I'll take your photo.

- No, no...

- Go.

- Go and stand over there.

- No, dear, it's okay.

- I want to do it.

- Alright.

Well, do you know

that t... to do the focus

you do, the, um, the outside

wheel and for the finer points

that will be the fine focus,

and then obviously that's the shutter.

I know how to use it, dad.

Yeah, okay. But just y... you

might want to wait 'til...

Will you look after Moses, dad?

Yeah.

Are you going to smile?

Um, just give me a minute.

I'm going to enjoy becoming

part of a sky like this, dad.

Hey? You okay?

Are you ready?

Yep.

Yep.

One, two, three.
