Can I ask you something?

It's a little personal, but... Do you ever think about death?

And according to reports just coming in, a young and internationally renowned

figure skater has gone missing on a northern glacier.

The skater, whose name has not yet been officially released, was taking part in

a promotional trip with her skating team.

Alongside a photo shoot, the schedule also included a survival -style

expedition on the glacier.

According to sources, the disappearance occurred late in the morning. It remains

unclear whether the skater became lost on the ice itself, as strong winds and

snowfall has obscured any tracks.

Another possibility is that she may have headed towards the glacier's edge and

fallen into the freezing waters.

One of her teammates gave a brief statement to us earlier.

I still can't believe it. She said in the morning that she needed a moment

alone. Authorities emphasize that time is critical.

Nothing taller than you.

Metal, metal.

Soft and sweet.

Nicest place we'll ever be.

Thank you.

Hello? Hello?

Is there somebody there?

Hello? Hi!

Hi, yes, hi!

Help me, hi!

Yes, I'll help you, and I'll make your day brilliant. Am I speaking with Miss

Emily? Yes.

Yes, please send somebody to help me. I'm Harry.

No.

No, please listen to me. I don't need an air conditioner.

I need help.

I'm lost in the middle of the Arctic Ocean somewhere, stuck on this ice floe,

and I... Really? An ice floe? Wow.

Yes, really, an ice floe. I'll send you my coordinates, okay? I don't

know my coordinates. Well, if you're not interested in my offer, you can just

say so. I don't want to push. No, I'm not joking.

I was with my team, and the edge of the glacier fell, and I woke up here, and

I'm... Our eco -friendly air conditioners are really energy

No, no, no, no, no, no. Please, please just stop talking about air

Please send somebody to help me. I am begging you.

All right, ma 'am. I got it. I have other calls to make. No.

No, no, no, no, no. Don't hang up on me. Stay cool and have a good day. No,

please.

Rescue 8 -8, copy, it's been two days, weather's worsening.

Rescue 8 -8 -4 -2, confirmed, search head.

Where are you going?

No.

No, no, no.

No. No!

I don't know if polar bears like nuts, but they

think of me alive, so...

They say you're not supposed to feed the animals, but, uh...

We're not in the zoo.

It's time to keep my promise, Anna.

What would you like to do tonight, my little sister?

Now that you're finally free.

Most beautiful place on earth.

I'll go for a picnic.

Amusement park.

Maybe we could ask mom and dad to take us for a swim.

Yeah, you're right. It's way too cold for a swim, trust me.

I know.

Want to tell me a bedtime story?

Okay.

I'll listen.

Don't tell me anything scary.

Just tell me something happy and warm.

Yeah.

I'll listen.

Yes, it's me. Please, please call somebody to help. Please call 112 or 9

-1 -1. I don't even know. Just please, please call somebody to pick me up.

It's me.

You won't even believe how happy I am to... The air conditioner guy.

Huh? Yes.

Unfortunately. Okay, but you need to call somebody to help me now. You need

call somebody, please.

To make my last call. Last what?

Call. What?

Okay, I don't know. No, just... What does that mean? Just help me, please.

It means that I don't get to call anymore.

To nobody.

Why?

Doesn't matter.

I don't know. I mean, the only thing that fucking matters is that you're my

contact in my mind. My phone doesn't even work. You just have to call

to help me. No.

Nothing matters.

I didn't... I didn't mean that... I know what you mean.

That's why I called.

Look, I don't think you know what I mean. I mean, if this is some kind of

I need you to call somebody to... If you think this is a prank, all you have to

do is hang up.

I won't.

You already did on the previous call.

Maybe it was...

The network, I mean, it doesn't really work here.

There? Where?

On... On an ice float.

In the middle of the ocean.

You have to believe me.

There we go again. Call somebody to fucking help me!

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

Amazing God.

Why are you playing with me?

Me?

Playing with you?

Right.

Um... Okay, so you...

You called me. Well...

Yeah.

I'm here.

Yeah, well, it was just a dream. I mean, I wasn't tall enough or fast enough.

I was good, but not that good.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

No need.

That's life.

Yeah.

You know, I also wanted to become a doctor.

But, I mean, I didn't read enough for the entrance exams.

I don't know what to say.

I just couldn't concentrate because I was just taking care of my three little

siblings. You know, my father died when I was little and my mother, well, she's

sick. So I gave up my plans to go to study.

I'm really sorry for you. I'm just not smart enough.

And you don't have to be sorry. Everybody wants something and everybody

dreams like me.

be somebody, you know?

Anybody but me.

I never wanted to be a telemarketer, but this is all I got.

This is all I was good for.

I'm sorry.

You what? What did you say?

I don't want your pity.

Most of us don't get what we want.

You know, I just didn't want to be a bad telemarketer, but that's what I became,

the scum of the world. Why would you say that?

Because I'm honest.

Everybody thinks that.

I don't.

Most people just hang out somewhere nasty, and then there's those who want

nice just to please because they want to make a good impression.

And if you think that I...

I didn't... Yes, you did.

What do you want from me?

I don't know. What I want from you is someone to hear me.

Someone...

I called you the first time you could have easily hung up as soon as you heard

was selling air conditioners.

But instead of hanging up, you spoke with me and created that absurd story

wouldn't understand.

I feel like the walls are coming down on me.

You know that feeling?

The walls aren't exactly coming down on me because of... Because

I'm on a melting

piece of ice in the middle of the ocean.

Yeah.

I almost forgot.

Meeting another human, a fellow being of my own kind, is the strongest comfort

in loneliness.

Even if it's just a voice.

It doesn't matter if the voice is strange, encouraging, joyful, sad,

frightening, or confusing.

What matters is that the voice doesn't disappear. You can imagine its face and

figure next to you.

Nothing is more important than keeping the connection.

Especially if you've already decided to surrender, but...

Suddenly, you don't want to let go of life.

So you don't feel like a prisoner like I do.

You can do whatever you want, and you can go wherever you want.

I wouldn't say so.

Emily, please.

Don't even try.

You're living in the world you've always dreamt of, doing exactly what you

always wanted to do.

What?

I don't get you.

The spotlights, the crowd, the applause, the red carpets, and most importantly,

passion. That great feeling you get every time you skate on the ice.

How do you know?

Easy. I've got your name on the list and Google has been invented.

So many great and beautiful shots and clips of your career.

And your social media page.

Are you... Are you stalking me? No, not really. I just wanted to

know more about you after I called you. Why would you do that? That's weird.

How come?

Because it's weird that you go...

What, you're Googling after calls to investigate those people?

No, no, no.

You're the only one.

Okay, well, I don't believe you.

I mean, you seem to know a lot about me, and I don't even...

I don't even know your name, so... Yes, I believe

that you don't believe.

My name is Harry.

So you don't believe that I'm on a melting piece of ice in the middle of

ocean?

Nice to meet you, Harry.

Actually, I think I'm a little further south now. I mean, the ice is melting,

and I think maybe it's getting a little bit warmer.

What I believe, because I know, is that you're on the Arctic Glacier, or at

least you were there.

Yeah, yes, I...

Wait.

Here's your selfie video of you on your way to the airport with your team.

Here you're on the plane. You're explaining something to your friend

wooden thing in your arms. What is it, by the way?

It's my sister's urn.

Really?

I'm so sorry.

Don't be, don't be.

Anna died a long time ago. She was seven and I was eight.

Harry?

May I ask how?

She was, um...

struck by a lightning bolt.

Really? How is that possible?

The meadow was so beautiful and... Time was as limitless as the sea is

limitless. That day, the sky was gray and you could sense the thunder rumbling

in the distance.

Anna stopped at the edge of the meadow and wanted to go back home.

Come on, let's run!

I saw the fear in her eyes.

Anna's frightened eyes just made defiance awaken in my blood.

I wanted to race across the meadow.

A flash sparked in Anna's eyes and she took off running before me.

I gained a lead and was already nearing the other side of the meadow.

Past her in an instant.

And then... Just like that.

I knew that once upon a time life was forever left behind.

A single bolt of lightning.

So you think it was your fault, right?

Google turns out that you're also a writer.

Your book has been published, Bedtime Stories by Anna and Emily.

Yeah.

My sister and I used to tell each other stories each night before we fell

asleep, and then some of them we wrote down.

Later I finished the text and I published them.

I've noticed that you're good at telling stories.

Have you read my book?

No.

So... Emily, to die by the lightning bolt is one in a million chance.

Yeah.

Hurry. Hang on.

Here we go again. I found pictures and video clips from your friends on

Instagram and Facebook.

In Alessandra's page.

You really are stalking me.

There are pictures from a promo shoot on an Arctic glacier.

This is you, your team. Whoa.

It looks like you had quite a party out there.

Okay, what more do you see?

Laughter and chatter.

Oh, you were a little drunk at the party. I'm not.

You definitely were.

I definitely wasn't. I thought athletes didn't drink.

At least...

Not sugar skaters.

Everybody thinks that, but I mean, of course we like it.

Harry? Harry?

Harry? Harry?

Harry, please, please say something and be there.

I wouldn't believe a word you say if I didn't see on your friend's social media

pages that you're carrying an urn.

Wait a moment again.

Here you're telling... Wait a second.

Well, you're telling the camera that this is the right morning and the right

moment. And you have to do it alone.

Now you skate away.

Your friends are talking. Someone says Emily is skating to the edge of the ice

to scatter Anna's ashes in the sea.

And now you disappear behind a mound out of the picture.

Yeah.

It was just about a two -kilometer skate to the edge, and

when I reached the edge of the icy cliff, I realized that

here it is, actually the most beautiful place in the

world.

I finally found somewhere where I could scatter Anna's ashes, and then...

Yeah, then...

The edge of the cliff fell, and here I am.

How long have we been talking?

Does it matter?

It's morning.

Are you busy?

You need to go?

Are you kidding me? No, I'm asking.

Where would I go? I'm on the... On the ice flow in the middle of the ocean.

Yeah, I know that story already.

But, Emily, I only ask you out of curiosity.

Where are you, really?

If you don't believe me, why do you care?

Because... Okay, look.

If you really needed help for some reason, you wouldn't waste your time on

You probably have close friends, so you could share your time with them. Not

some stranger on the phone.

Either way, the end result is that you have problems with yourself because

you're talking all night with some stranger on the phone.

Well, that makes two of us. I mean, you're wasting your time with me, and

don't even know me, so... Because you're special, Case.

I didn't know anything about you until I called you the first time.

But for some reason...

You said that this is your last call.

You know, for me, this is

probably my last call ever.

And I mean ever.

And I don't care anymore what you believe or don't believe because...

It's been nice.

When it comes to my little problem, I... I

probably won't make it, but... This phone call has meant a lot to me,

and... I understand you're a special case, too.

I found something in the news.

Yeah. What? Here's a photo.

Some members of your team.

One of them is wearing a red scarf in her hand.

Yes.

Yes.

The headline of the article says, A last memory of a dear fan and a great

skater. The scarf was lifted from the ICU from below.

The search had already begun on the glacier site, but was called off after

scarf was found.

No, no, no, no, no. Okay, you be.

You need to call my teammates now, okay? Please, you need to call them. If

they're here, they can come and get me.

Wait.

What?

What?

Thank you.

me. I'm really sorry, but I'm going to have to eat you.

It's nothing personal, I swear.

I'll call you Fish.

Okay, so that's Fish.

It's a little personal, but... You ever think

about death?

And I'm sure you do, but... Are you afraid of it?

I'm sure you are.

A little bit.

You can make it, Fish. I believe in you. Please.

Please. You can't give up. Please. Fish!

Bleh.

Ah!

All right.

We've got a problem with flight 11 .22, we have another F5 turning at 10.

Back then, in the meadow, I left the once upon a

time life.

It can be done in many ways, so that you no longer have to try and move

forward.

But you can just live in the moment.

Not in the past.

The future.

And in the midst of it all, my mind was never clear enough to even stop and

think.

Once upon a time, life was a burden on my shoulders all those years.

Under all those highlights and spotlights.

See?

Do you see me now?

I'm infinite.

Hi.

Hi. Hi.

I was just calling to see if you...

Bell Air Conditioner.

Emily?

And, of course, to thank you.
