At least the cake is good.
-Yes, thanks for that.

Did you bake it?
-No, I bought it.

Okay.
-What?

I didn't say anything.

I didn't?

Can you knock on the fucking door?

Are you ever going to fix the lock?

Oliver.

What?

I have a job interview
can you drop Hrafn off at school?

Yeah, if you learn how to knock...

Why are you driving me?

Mom is just busy.

With what?

She has a job interview.

What's that?

Just a thing for old people.

How?

To get a job, little guy.

Aren't you going to sit in the front?

I can't.

Says who?

Mom.

Yeah, well she isn't here.

-It's not allowed.

Just let me know if there is
something... Okay?

You know you can always talk to me.

Yes, no problem.

How are you doing?
-I'm doing fine, thanks.

Always... always fine.
-Good, of course.

See, Oliver I'm not gonna
make this complicated...

The reason why wanted to
talk to you is...

As you know we've been
downsizing and...

As things stand now
I'm gonna have to let you go.

Okay.

I mean, I can't say
I'm not surprised.

Of course

You know, I'm more on the side
cleaning and so on.

Yes, and I'll have you know I've been

very impressed, very...very.

But...

This is just how things are
right now.

Yeah... yeah.
-Still.

You have your notice period.

That's three months.

You show up on weekends and...

Yes. -Yeah.

Yes, that's just...

How it is.

You know this is...

I feel very sorry about this.

No, no this is just how it is.

I've been looking for something more
full-time anyways.

Excellent.

-I'm just asking...

Yes I know honey.

Your skin is getting better.

Mom!

What the fuck are you thinking?

Are you using again?

No...

Stop the fucking bullshit...

What are you talking about?

You are such a fucking bitch.

Haven't you learned?

Are you so fucked up in the head?

And what?
You're just gonna walk?

Talk to me!
-Let me go!

Just talk to me!
-Let go of me!

Mom, just talk to...

Do you never think of him?

Before you do shit like this?

Yeah, and I lost my job by the way...

Are you listening to me?

Are you fucking listening?

What are you doing?

What's going on?

I'm not in the mood for this.
-Just drive!

School isn't over.

What happened?
-I've told you already.

Don't talk to me that way, okay?

Don't be rude.

Do I need to speak to a teacher?
-No!

What do you want me to do then?

I'm gonna kill them.

What's going on?

Shit...
What did I tell you?

They won't stop making fun of me.

Who is making fun of you?

I'm not going to tell you.

Why not?

They were calling my father a hobo.

Hrafn, don't listen to them.

Hrafn.

Hrafn, stop it!

Fucking idiots!
-Hrafn!

Relax, relax, relax
-I'm gonna kill them!

Relax.

I'm going to kill them
-No no no...

It's going to be alright.

Relax.

Is the book any good?

I just started.

What's it about?

Two people.

And what?
What are they doing?

Who?

The people.

They're in love.

And then what?
What happens?

I don't know.

I'm not that far into it...

And could I ask
why you picked this book?

I'm not a pervert.

I know.
I wasn't implying that.

I'm just...

What?

Just...

What?

Any ladies or?

No, I'm kidding.

Wait here,
I'm gonna take this.

Yeah, good day to you too also.

Yes, truly.

Wait a second.

Yes?

Yes I'm here.

I'll see you later tonight.

Okay, yeah bye.

Who was that?

That was Natan.

What was he saying?

Nothing special.

Shouldn't we just go home?

Yes.

Okay.

Congratulations on your day honey.

It's evening.

Don't you wanna eat your bread?

Where's your brother?

Oliver!

It's dinner time!

Maybe he's sleeping

Yes.

He can eat later.

How was school?

All right.

What did you do?

Soccer.

How did it go?

Just well.

Yes?
That's good.

Eat more.

I'm full.
-You haven't eaten anything.

I can't eat more.

Eat a little more.
-Mom, he isn't hungry.

Hrafn, you can go to your room.

You're starting to remind me
of your father.

I'm leaving.

Can I trust you'll look after him?
-Oliver!

He is my son.
-And what?

Like that changes anything for you?

I won't be long.

Come in.

Am I interrupting?
-No.

How's it going?

Well, I'm almost done.

Is it good, or?

It's alright.

How often have the people kissed?

Often.

Have you seen this one?

Who's that?

That's Medusa.

She's from Greek mythology.

Was it her that turned
everyone into stone?

Why do you have it?

I thought she was cool.

I'm leaving.

Where?

Birthday party.

Who has a birthday?
-Apparently more people than you.

A friend of Natan's.
His birthday is at midnight.

Are you gonna be alright?
-Yes.

Where's your phone?

Here.

You'll call me if there's
anything okay? -Okay.

See you later.

Ah, I don't know
I don't know...

Stop it.
-No! You know I can't.

Agnes, stop it!

What?

It's not part of my plan
to take care of you tonight...

Ólöf are you kidding?

You don't have to take care of me!

Who do you even think I am?

Agnes...

Do you really want me
to say it out loud?

No... I'd rather not.
-No, exactly.

Thank you, very much.

Good day to you.
-Good evening.

You clearly weren't in a hurry.

No...

I wasn't stressing over it.

Yeah, I can see.

Isn't Agnes with you?
-Yes

Or she's on the way.

I think she might be bringing
a friend...

Good for her.

What are you bitter or something?
-No...

Why is your face getting red?

I'm not bitter not at all,
not at all.

I don't even know why we even came
to this party.

These people are so fucking weird.

Wait, you don't know the guy?
-Who?

Take a guess...

Yeah, no.
It's just some friend of Agnes.

Great.

Smári!
-What's up guys.

Congratulations on your birthday!

Thanks, great to see you guys.
-Thanks for inviting us!

Ólöf, it's been so long since
we've seen him!

Have a good evening.

Natan?

Can I sit?

Yes, yes of course.
-Thanks.

What, what's going on over there?

Just Agnes being...

Hammered?

Yes, let's just say that.

Are you and Natan schoolmates or?

No, no I'm just working...

Just basic stuff.
-Yes, okay.

Awesome.

Do you know the guy?

The birthday guy... dude.

No...

I just came with Agnes,
I don't know him at all.

Welcome to the club...

Yeah.

This small talk isn't really working.

Yeah, yes.
I didn't wanna mention it.

My name is Oliver.
-Yeah, hi.

Friend of Natan and Agnes.
-Yes.

Yeah she kind of told me
to go sit over here.

Yeah, okay.

Not that I wouldn't have done it.
It's not that, just...

Aren't you drinking or?

No, I...

It's just not my thing.

No same here.
I don't drink either.

So I guess you don't smoke then?
-No...

Nothing like that.

Were you maybe gonna
invite me for a cig?

Yes, exactly.

No, I'm kidding.

Oh my god, are you okay?

Yes, yes I'm good.

I...

You know you don't have to
say anything...

Oh, really?

I don't know the rules, I...

What?

Is your mom looking for you?

I just need five minutes.
-I'll be right back

Yeah, okay. No problem

Just five minutes.
-Yeah, just...Yes.

You have reached voicemail.

Read a message after the tone.

Natan.

Natan!

Can you tell Ólöf that...

Fuck... shit.

Mom?

You're really getting on
on my fucking nerves.

Are you crying?

Mom?

Mom?

Mom.

What's going on?
-Oliver, just wait a minute.

Mom! Mom?
Get the fuck away from her!

Mom! Mom?
What's going on?

Where is Hrafn?

What are you saying?

Are you going to tell me
what's going on?

Oliver, I mean...
I think we need to just...

Is it you?

Is it you that's giving
her all this fucking shit?

Do you really think that?
Stop it!

Where is Hrafn?

Are you high right now?

No!

No...

Stop fucking lying.
Stop the fucking lies.

I know they would never...
-What are you saying?

They would never touch him.

Stop with the fucking bullshit!

Stop with the endless
fucking bullshit!

It's just a little debt.

What the fuck is happening?

You need to start being clear, okay?
-Let's relax a little.

What, do I need to call the police?
-Oliver listen to me!

Your mom has a little debt
on her hand.

And the men...
Oliver, listen to me!

The men that she owes,
wanted to use your brother.

To pay the debt.

Mom.

You are worthless.

Don't say that...

You need to wind down.

She's already told me where he is.

Now, we can go and pick him up.
But you've got to relax.

You have to wind down.

Just drive to the end...

...then to the right.

So I just park outside?

Yes.

Here.

Okay, you wait here...

No, no, no...

What do you mean?
No?

Not a chance I'm trusting you.
-Oliver! Listen to me.

You don't know shit about
these guys inside.

Now is not the time
for fucking stupidity.

Fuck you.

Fucking hell!

Oliver! -What?

What the fuck do you want?
-What are you going to do?

Can't you see the light?

And what, you're just gonna
knock on the door?

I don't know if he's hurt, okay?

And what?
What are you gonna say?

Oliver, I'm asking you
to listen to me!

Shit...

I'll keep watch, okay?
Just be careful.

Oliver! There's someone coming!
Get the fuck down!

Get the fuck out! -Hey!
What the fuck are you doing here?

Come here!
-Get the fuck over here!

Hey! Fucking stop!

What the fuck are you!...
You fucking!

Where the fuck do you think
you're going?

Huh?!
-Put the knife down...

What the fuck are you doing here?!
Answer me!

Hrafn! Run!

Rúnar!

Fasten your seat belt.
Fasten it!

Stop the fucking car!

Stop!

Fasten your belt now!

What's going on...

Is everything okay?
-What's going on.

Oliver?

Are you alright?

Yes.

Okay, good.

Sorry, sorry, sorry...

I didn't mean to do anything
-I know, I know sweetheart.

Can we go home?

Pick up.

Pick up, pick up, pick up.

Where are we going?

Why can't we just go home?

You need to listen to me now
and obey me, okay?

Sit over there.

I...

I'm gonna be honest with you, I...

I don't know what to do right now.

Can't we just go home?

Haven't you been listening to me?

Do you never listen?

Sorry.
-Stop with the fucking crying.

Stop the endless whining, okay?

And stop feeling sorry for yourself.

If you want me to do something
you've just gotta stop.

This is so fucked...

I didn't want to do it.

I know.

I'm sorry, I know better.

Mom told me she needed some help.

It's gonna be alright, okay?

It's just..

Me and you and...

We don't need her.

We don't need her.

I'll just...

I'm gonna call the police
and they're going to help us.

Hrafn.

Where's your phone?

I don't have it.

They took it.

Who?

The men.

You have to stay here.

Okay?

Stay.

Hey! There you are, you fucker!
-Hrafn!

Get the fucking kid!
-Hrafn!

Hey!
Get the fuck over here!

What the fuck do you think you're...

Who...

...the fuck do you think you are?

What were you doing in the house?!
-Let me go!

Fucking answer me!
-Let me fucking go!

What's that?

Guess.

A guitar?

Almost.

Come on, sit.

What is it?

This is... an Ukulele.

Ukulele.

Where did you get it?

I just bought it.

Do you know how to play it?

No... barely.

Here, try it.

Try putting this finger over here.

Oliver?

Hold on a second.

You were calling?
-Yes honey, can you help me?

Let me see.

Alright...

Thanks, darling.

When are you leaving?
-He is coming to pick me up.

Do I need to pull him aside
and ask him about past times or?

No, nothing like that.

I need to get to know my new dad.
-Oliver, stop it.

I'm joking.
-I know honey.

Our man is right on time.
-Can you let him in for me?

Everything for your majesty.

And mom...

You look amazing.

Thanks, love.

Nothing is working out.

Nothing's working out.

This is your fault.

This is all your fault!

I hate you.

I fucking hate you!

I fucking hate you!

Excuse me, we're closed.

Let me see.

Does it hurt?
-No, no.

You'd be surprised how many
people fall down these stairs.

This is almost a part time job.

This is the best I can do...

But...

I would have it checked,
if I were you.

Do you want water?

No...

And why are you sitting at my bar?
If I can ask?

Rough night?

Yes...

A little rough.

I'm looking for my brother.

Is he lost?

Yeah.

And... have you called the police?

What's your name?
-Freyja.

Freyja...

Can I tell you something?

My mom had me
when she was young...

Very young.

And my dad took up a habit
of abusing me every day.

When he came home from work...

...the bar, it didn't matter.

When I came home from school...

I used to see my mom
lying on the ground.

He was beating her.

No reason or...

He just did it.

One morning when I woke up
to screaming.

I thought it was just
another day...

And I knew what would happen.

I walked out of my room and...

There he lied on the ground...

Heart attack.

Mom, just stood there,

and we watched.

We didn't do anything.

Just watched him die.

Where did you get that photo?

His name is Hrafn,

my brother.

Light, white hair.

Innocent.

You must've seen him.

I can't let this happen to him...

Please...

What're you doing?

Are you okay?

He doesn't speak Icelandic.

I'm sorry.

Hrafn.
This is not your fault.

This is not your fault, okay?

It's gonna be alright.
-Okay.

Aren't you hungry?

Where is mom?

I just need to rest for a while.

You've got to trust me.

Get out, and run.
Run until you find someone, okay?

Where's mom?

You have to just trust me...

Hi.

Yeah, yes. I just need to go
home and take a shower.

Yes, I need a shower
I don't want to be... Yes.

Okay...

Love you, yeah bye.

Hello?

What's up, kiddo?

How are you?

I'm good.
-Yeah?

So you're gonna sit in the front?

Did you talk to them by any chance?

Alright, okay.

Thanks.

No problem.

Wait here, I'm gonna...

Check things out.

You'll maybe go
to the back seat meanwhile.

So I won't get a ticket.

Okay?

I brought a new candle.

I've been saving up money
but it's hard.

Natan bought it for me.

I've already said thanks.

I'm alone most of the time.

I...

I'm sorry how long It's been.

I sometimes talk to the people but...

They just wanna talk about
boring things like school and...

I'm going to ask Natan
if he can pick me up more often.

Maybe once a week.

I don't know...

Oliver always said
that gas is expensive

and I don't have any money.

I think maybe Natan is cold now.

...So I'm gonna leave.

They don't want me
coming over here,

but I'm still going to try.

Bye.

Stefán?

Are you there?

Krummi, is it you?

Krummi, answer me.

Hrafn?
