- ( Clattering )
- ( Pede, in Danish ) They're going in!

Wait for me, damn it!

Torsten:
Come on, you're so damn slow!

- Hop on the back, come on.
- ( footsteps )

- Marcus: Hurry, damn it!
- Pede: They bet 1200.

Boy:
On what?

Marcus:
On who jumps in the lake first.

- Johan: Let's go!
- Lars T.: That can't be healthy.

Bent:
Wow, this is cold!

Marcus:
Wait for me, damn it!

- Come on, Johan!
- ( "Moondance" playing )

Johan... You're looking good.
Come on. Get in there.

Hell no, I'm not getting in there!
I won't do it, man.

You can jump in yourself.
It's freezing cold, man.

Johan:
I'm not going in, damn it!

( whistles )

( yells )

( cheering )

Here it comes.
Shit, I have a cramp.

- Damn, it hurts!
- I'm coming.

- Ahhh, it hurts.
- ( men chattering )

Theo:
Are you all right?

Theo, get him into
the recovery position, and then...

( whistles )
pump his chest a bit.

Don't fuck him.

( Lars T. groans )

Did you get a look at my eel traps?
Did I catch anything?

I want 600.
I came second.

There is hot toddy in the car.
Let's go, boys.

( loud chattering )

( men singing )

THE HUNT

( wind blowing )

( birds chirping )

( clangs )

( whistling )

There is something fishy
going on here.

( children yelling )
Attack!

Is that you, Pelle?
Are you alone?

- ( Pelle laughing )
- I got him.

- He is going down!
- Argh, there are so many of you!

Well, who is this?
Now I'm dangerous.

You're my new weapon, Pelle.
You're my new weapon.

- ( Children chattering )
- There.

I have to go to the bathroom.

Just hang up
the outdoor clothes, all right?

I have to go to the bathroom.

- Grethe: Number one or number two?
- Two.

Tell you what then...

we should get Lucas
to help you with that, okay?

Lucas, would you please
help him with that?

And remember:
All his clothes come off.

Is it a good idea to be jumping
if you're going in there?

( Linus grunting )

- ( splashes )
- ( exhales deeply )

- I'm done.
- That's good.

You can handle that yourself, can't you?

Hello? Wipe!

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa.

What kind of...
what kind of tone is that?

Come here.

- ( toilet flushes )
- ...and soap. Yes.

- ( whistles ) Come!
- ( yips )

- Hi, Klara.
- Klara: Hi.

- Is something wrong?
- I'm lost.

Oh. Where are
your mom and dad?

At home.

I forgot to look where I was going,

and all of a sudden I was here.

Are you still not allowed
to step on the lines?

So you can't look up and down
at the same time?

No, and then I couldn't remember
which way I went.

- ( dog whimpers )
- That isn't good.

But you know what?
I remember where we live.

Why don't we go together?

I'll look up, and then you can
look down at the lines.

- I would like to do that.
- ( dog whimpers )

- ls Fanny coming too?
- Uh-huh, she is coming too.

That's good,
then she can watch out for us.

What's your favorite dish?

Lucas:
Probably venison.

My favorite is fish fingers.

Why do you work
in our kindergarten?

Well, that's because I was a teacher
at your big brother's old school.

And then it closed.

- Do you remember that?
- Uh-huh.

My dad says that you are sad because
you live in a big house all alone.

- Well, does he now?
- Uh-huh.

You know what?
Cheer up.

Just keep your head high
and your feet on the ground.

If you are still sulking,
then you can have a kick in the butt.

( laughs )

Well, did your dad teach you that?

Uh-huh. Then you can have
a kick in the butt.

- ( Fanny barking )
- Can I come over and walk Fanny?

Lucas:
As much as you want.

You just say the word.
You can try calling her.

- Klara: Fanny?
- No, much louder.

- ( Shouts ) Fanny?!
- Say, "Come here!"

- Come here!
- Yeah, see!

Theo:
Klara, where have you been?

Lucas:
She has been at the supermarket.

- Klara: Come on, Fanny!
- And then me and Fanny found her.

Theo: Sweetie, sweetie, haven't
I told you not to run away from home?

- Sorry.
- Lucas: Coffee?

- Theo: Did you say "coffee"?
- Lucas: Yes, I sure did.

- Fanny?
- Theo: Come on, you know the way.

- Klara: Come!
- Go to your room. Come on.

Ouch!

Take a look at what I found
out in the gutter, here.

- Hi, Lucas.
- Lucas: Hi, Agnes.

Hi. Hi, Fanny.
Who's a good dog, huh?

- ( Fanny barks)
- Agnes: Hi, honey.

You know, why haven't
you moved that yet?

You promised to get it out of here.

Do you also have your sporting gun
lying around the house like that?

My sporting gun.

Theo:
Agnes, how often do I have to tell you?

It's a rifle.
This isn't a sport, all right!

Agnes: Torsten?

- Torsten?!
- Torsten: Yes, what?

Hey, little lady,

didn't you have something
to think about up in your room, huh?

Agnes: All right, Torsten and I are
going to go buy some football shoes.

- You two keep your paws off that pie!
- We promise.

All right?
I mean it.

It's in one piece when I get back.
Torsten, are you coming?

Drop by one of these days
for some dinner, will you?

- Lucas: Next week?
- We'll make something nice.

- Yes, Wednesday. Lasagna.
- Yes.

- Lasagna.
- Agnes: Come on, let's go, sweetie.

- Torsten: Yeah, I'm coming.
- Agnes: Really, Torsten.

- ( door closes )
- ( oven opens )

( clattering )

Shit, she'll be furious, man.
Damn, it's hot!

- The white things there can cover it.
- Yeah, yeah, that's it.

I've got it.

How is it going
with Marcus and your ex

- and that whole mess?
- It's going well.

Yeah.

I can tell when you're lying, okay?

You do this thing with your eye, right?

- Sort of like a little twitch.
- I do?

So don't lie to me, Lucas, okay?

Okay. Well, she will still only let me
see him every other weekend.

- Call Kirsten. Call Kirsten, all right?
- ( Fanny barking )

And all that stuff
with the lawyers and all that shit...

Hey, Fanny, be quiet!

Then stop saying "Kirsten" over
and over. That's why. Stop it, Fanny!

You hear?

Do you miss Marcus?

Do I miss him?

Yes, of course I miss my boy.

- Grab the phone, and then call Kirsten.
- ( barking )

- Stop it!
- Hey, stop that now!

- Stop it. Lay down.
- Stupid dog.

- Lucas: I said, lay down!
- Theo: You lay down now! Shut up, dog.

- Lay down.
- Lucas: Lay down.

- Stop it, Fanny.
- Theo: Shame on you.

He is a bit upset that...

it is 12 days with you
and two with me,

and perhaps we could find
another solution?

Kirsten:
I think it is working fine like this.

I don't see why
we have to do it differently.

Can I say something too?
Thank you.

He told me that he would like
to spend more time here.

And you had talked about it,
and you were very happy too,

because I have a job now,
and all is well.

Is that wrong,
the things he said, or not?

Kirsten:
Lucas, you're 42 years old.

- You work in a kindergarten.
- Yes.

What do you expect him to say to you?
He feels sorry for you.

What? What did you say? He feels
sorry for me, or what are you saying?

Of course he does.
He feels sorry for you.

Try behaving a bit more like an adult
and listen to what I'm saying.

- You have to set yourself aside...
- That's not the reason.

...for once. This isn't about you,
it's about the boy, damn it.

Well, that is what I am doing, damn it.

He was the one who asked me
about this, all right?

You can't even keep an agreement.

We have a clear agreement
that you are not

supposed to call me,
so don't call me.

All right, can I just ask you then,
when can we talk

if you don't call me,
and I'm not allowed to call you?

When can we talk then?

- I don't know. I can't answer that.
- What?

- I am hanging up now.
- No, when can we talk, Kirsten?

- ( disconnects )
- ( Fanny barks, whimpers )

( boys laughing, talking )

Torsten:
Hey, wait for me.

- Pede: Old rod, big rod. Ugly rod.
- Torsten: No, no, no, no, no.

Pede:
Crooked and wrinkly rod, man.

Rod, rod, roderoo, rod, rod.

Hey, Klara!

Look at this, Klara,
it points straight up in the air.

Torsten: Hush... Come on,
let's go into my room.

Whoa, man! That's crazy, man.
Giant hooker rod.

( boys laughing )

Agnes: I am so fucking tired. God damn
it, I do everything around here, man.

I make the lunches,
I wash the clothes.

- Lucas: Good morning, Klara.
- Theo: Is anyone...

- Good morning.
- Theo: Listen to me.

You have to take her there.

Agnes:
Why can you never keep an agreement?

- Theo: We haven't agreed on shit!
- Are they arguing?

Theo:
I have an appointment with Sten.

- We have to go and pick up...
- Lucas: Are you upset?

No, he can just have
a kick in the butt.

- ( chuckles )
- Agnes: We agreed last night.

Theo: You have to stop this, damn it!
If you can make kids,

you can damn well take
your kid to kindergarten too.

Do you want me
to take you to kindergarten?

I would like that.

- Lucas: I'll just tell your dad.
- Theo: Yeah?

I'm standing just outside
and you're making a racket.

Theo: It's Agnes, she is completely
crazy. I can't find Klara anywhere.

Yeah, she is sitting right here.

- Theo: Oh.
- Should I just take her with me?

Theo:
Yeah, of course. Bye.

Lucas: Yeah.
That was okay with him. Shall we go?

( birds chirping )

Shall we say that you'll look where
we're going, and I'll look at my lines?

Yes, let's do that.

( distant chattering )

( tape creaks )

( tears )

( kids laughing )

- Lucas: Argh.
- ( boys yelling )

You're all so weak. I will...

- Who will get to fly?
- Child: One, two, three.

- Tadaaa.
- Lucas: Argh!

Oh, no. I'm not used to...

- Me too. Me too.
- Lucas: Who is that now?

Argh.
I need a break...

- Or else... I'm dying.
- Children: Me too. Me too.

- I'm dying... I'm dying.
- Me too. Me too. Me too.

( Groans )

Boys:
Yaaaaay, tickle him.

- Tickle him.
- Wake up. Wake up, Lucas.

- Tickle him.
- ( Lucas groans )

( deep voice )
Who is trying to wake the dead?

What?
Here comes the dead hand.

Children:
He is just pretending.

Okay... now...

All right, I think that is...
Time for fruit.

- Fruit is ready.
- Lucas: We're coming.

And, boys,
you need to clean up first.

Klara? Klara? Come here.

There was a little present
in my coat pocket just now.

Klara: Oh.

I think you should
give this to one of the boys.

- It's not from me.
- Oh...

it says "Klara" on it though.

Then someone must be teasing you.
It's not from me.

Okay, but you know what?
I think you should give it to your mom,

or give it to the boy
who made it, okay?

And you shouldn't kiss
anyone on the mouth,

unless it's your dad or mom.

- It's not from me. You're lying.
- Klara.

It's not from me.

- Klara?
- Boy: Wuahh.

That's it. Boys! Clean up now!

And then wash your hands.
Let's go.

- Boy: Do you mean it?
- Lucas: Yes, I mean it.

Boy:
Clean up how?

- Hi, Pelle. Hi, Janus.
- Janus: Hi, Grethe.

- Pelle: I want to go home.
- Janus: Do you want to say goodbye

- and thank you for a good day?
- Pelle: Come on, let's go home now.

Hi, little sweetie.
Are you still here?

Well, your mom will be here
in just a minute, all right?

- ( clatters )
- ( grunts )

Are you excited about Christmas?

- ( sniffles )
- Do you remember the carol?

Come on, let's sing it together.

в™Є A child is born in Bethlehem в™Є

в™Є Bethlehem в™Є

в™Є Now joy is in Jerusal... в™Є

I hate Lucas.

Oh, I thought you were
such good friends?

- We're not.
- Why not?

He is stupid, and he is ugly,

- and he has a penis.
- Well, most men do, don't they?

Your dad does,
and Torsten does, and...

But his points straight up
in the air like a...

like a rod.

Why do you say that?

Because it does.

Did something happen, Klara?

Yes, he gave me this heart,
but I don't want it.

Well, then...
Th-that's not good.

Well, you'll just have to throw it away.

Do you think
Santa will come this year?

Well, yes y-you never...
never know.

I think he'll come.

Yes, if the kids have been good,
he'll probably come.

- Hi, Grethe.
- Oh... Hello.

- Klara: Hi, Mom.
- Hi, sweetie.

Are you just sitting there
in the dark? Huh?

Aww, you know, I'm so sorry.

I have just been so busy all day.
I came as fast as I could.

Whew, did you have a good time?

Was there something
you wanted to say, or...?

No, no, we have...

We have been collecting
frogs and mushrooms

and animal turds out
in the woods today, haven't we?

(Agnes laughs)
Oh, that sounds lovely.

Come on, sweetie,
let's go home, shall we?

- Yes, take care, Klara.
- Bye, Grethe.

- Bye bye... Bye.
- Hi, sweetie.

Come on, my darling.

Now let's just hurry home

and make dinner, shall we?

( chattering )

Agnes:
Where are your gloves?

- Okay?
- Agnes: Oh, dear.

Did Dad forget to pack your mittens?

- Grab your bag.
- Wow. That's a surprise.

I'm really thrilled about that.
But did something happen, or?

- Agnes: Bye.
- Kirsten: I think this is really rough.

- Agnes: See you. Come on, sweetie.
- Or did you just talk about it?

Kirsten: Yes, we did.
He wants to stay permanently with you.

There is nothing I can do.
He is yelling and screaming.

Listen, Kirsten.
This will be really good.

( Kirsten crying )

And I'll just take him to your place
as often as he wants, all right?

Are you okay?

Kirsten: You should talk to him.
I'll go and get him.

Oh, sorry.
I'll just go past here.

- Marcus: Dad?
- Marcus! Great!

Marcus: Yeah, it's great, but I can't
change schools until after Christmas.

Lucas:
Yeah, I know, but we'll figure it out.

Marcus: I should go and see to Mom.
She's pretty devastated.

Okay, you do that.
And listen, Marcus?

Be nice to her, okay?
This isn't easy.

- Marcus: Of course. Bye.
- Honey?

I love you.
I'll see you very soon.

( glasses clink )

- Sorry. Hi.
- Hi!

That was my son.

He's going to come
and live with me now.

( Nadja, in English ) Ah! Okay.

- That is great.
- Yes.

So maybe we should, uhm,
have a cup of coffee to celebrate?

- ( In Danish ) Coffee.
- Coffee?

- Coffee.
- Coffee now? In here?

Nadja: Yes. ( laughs )

Let's have some coffee then.

Do you take milk?

No, I like it black and strong.

( in English )
But I make the coffee.

- No, no.
- Yes... yes.

I make the coffee,
and you do the dishes.

I do no more dishes today.

So that's it. Okay.

( Lucas and Nadja chatting )

( Lucas, in Danish )
You can just do it like this.

- Easy!
- ( Nadja, in English ) Oh, no.

It's better to do it like this.

- ( Nadja laughs )
- Like this.

- Yes.
- ( in Danish ) Like that?

( in English )
Yes, you're very good at this.

( Lucas, in Danish )
Thank you very much.

- ( water splashes )
- Oops.

If I put the chairs up,
would you two clean up the playground?

Yes, we'll do that.

- ( softly ) Okay.
- Lucas: Good?

( Nadia, in English )
Hey- Very good.

And... uh... yeah...
so far I haven't found

any job that matches
my education or anything.

But hey, I like it here.

I like all the fresh air,

I like the kids,
I like all the nice people,

all the good-looking men.

Ah, okay.

( in Danish )Well...
But I'll see you tomorrow... morrow.

- Monday.
- Tomorrow.

No, I'll see you Monday,
because it's the weekend.

( laughs )
Yes...

I like... when I see you.

Likewise.

( in English )
Come here.

( in Danish )
You're sweet.

( in English )
You're cute.

- ( in Danish ) Likewise.
- ( both laugh )

( brays )

( distant gunshot )

( distant gunshot )

( gunshot )

( distant gunshot )

( men chattering )

- Can you even see the bread?
- All right, listen.

You know what? That was
the first time ever that I didn't...

- Bruun: Yes, it is.
- That I didn't hit shit.

- It's definitely the first time.
- Let's do the song!

M-m-maybe, maybe he has
a problem with his eyes.

Should we just... Should we try these
on? Maybe you should try these on?

- ( men laugh )
- Fuck off.

- Cheers, everybody.
- ( burps )

- Why is the glass...
- ( laughing )

Bruun:
No, no, no, those aren't the rules.

Oh!

( whistles ) Listen up,
I'll tell you how it's going to be.

I'll call and talk to Ulla.
You take...

- I'll do that too then!
- Yes, yes, you bring the roast pork.

Eel, black pudding.

Johan? ( whistles )
Apple pork...

- apple pork, apple pork.
- Johan: Why don't we drink some more?

Bruun: And you'll bring
apple pork like you always do.

- ( cellphone rings)
- This is Lucas.

Hello?

Theo: All right, listen.
That is bullshit. I hit them...

I can't... I can't
hear anything. Wait a second.

Hello, this is Lucas.

( Nadja, in English )
Why do you never call me?

Sorry... what?

Nadja:
Why do you never call me?

Because I don't have your number.

Nadja: Look on your phone.
It is on your display, right?

Yes, it is.

So call me.

( disconnects )

( exhales sharply )

( dialing )

- ( beeps )
- Hello, it's Nadja.

- ( in Danish ) Yes, it's me.
- ( in English )Who?

- ( laughs)
- ( in English ) It's me.

What are you doing?

Hmmm... nothing.

Okay.

And you?

Well... I'm...

( men shouting in Danish )
Pussy! Pussy!

( in English )
I'm at a meeting.

- Or... no. No, I'm not. I'm...
- In a meeting?

I'm really happy
you called me because, I...

( in Danish )
I've been thinking about you a lot.

- ( in English ) So, should we meet?
- Yeah, I would love to meet.

- ( chattering )
- Bent: I sure as hell hope it's coming.

Get those beers over here.

Where the hell are the beers?

Bruun:
What's up? Who were you just...

Who were you just calling, huh?

- We'll talk about that later.
- Was it a chick?

- It might have been.
- ( whistles ) He was out calling...

- Stop it, stop it.
- I'm just trying to calmly and quietly

tell everyone that he was
just out calling a lady.

- The least you could do is...
- ( men cheering )

( chattering )

All: в™Є Would Lucas, would Lucas,
would Lucas drink a beer? в™Є

в™Є Would Lucas, would Lucas в™Є

- в™Є Would Lucas drink a beer? в™Є
- Yes, I actually would.

в™Є Would Lucas, would Lucas,
would Lucas drink a beer? в™Є

- ( cheering )
- Ohhhhhhhh...

в™Є And surely, and surely,
and surely he would! в™Є

в™Є And surely, and surely в™Є

в™Є And surely he would! в™Є

в™Є And surely, and surely,
and surely he would! в™Є

I brought you a present.

- No, no, no, no, no. Come.
- Theo: Yes.

- Agnes: It's not Christmas Eve.
- Theo: Yes, yes, I can get up.

- Yeees, yes, yes, Lucas, I can get up.
- Lucas: I'll help you a bit.

- Theo: I can get up.
- How much has he had to drink?

- I don't know. I didn't keep count.
- ( laughs ) I can see that.

- I'll help you inside, come on.
- Yes, thanks a lot, Lucas.

- I'll just bring you inside.
- Lucas?

Yes? Yes? Yes?

- I just talked to Agnes.
- Uh-huh.

- You're my best friend.
- You got him?

- Yes, I think so.
- Yes, that's great.

- I'll see you in the morning.
- Kiss, okay... Kiss.

- You got him?
- Agnes: Yeah, I got him.

- Are you sure?
- Agnes: Thank you so much for the help.

- Theo: No, damn...
- Okay. Are you sure?

- Yes.
- Theo: Okay, good. It has to stop.

I'll call you if there's trouble.
Get home safely.

Come on, honey, let's get you to bed.

Agnes?

So... There is something
I need to tell you.

Do you know why you're beautiful?

- Do you know why you're beautiful?
- No.

- It's because you don't know.
- ( chuckles )

- You're sweet, honey.
- Agnes, I love you.

I love you...

Theo:
I love you.

I love you so much.

( in English )
Did you wait for a long time?

Nadja: Yes.

( wind chime clinking )

I'm sorry.

- Oops!
- ( barks )

This is my dog, Fanny.

- Nadja: Hello.
- ( whines )

This is my kitchen.

Do you want some coffee,
or you want some...

No.

( in Danish ) Fanny! Fanny?
Fanny? Where are you?

Where are you?
( in English ) Come here!

( in Danish )
Thank you for the ball. Come here!

Tadaa!
She could do this...

( in English ) She did this
when she was one years old.

Fanny?
She wants to see it again.

- Nadja: Okay.
- She wants to see it again.

Here we go.

- ( laughs )
- And where does the dog sleep?

Downstairs.

- Good idea?
- Yeah, I'll throw the ball.

- You throw the ball.
- No... problem.

Good.

- So... okay.
- ( Fanny whining)

So...

Mmm.

- Okay?
- Very okay.

- Can you see anything?
- I can see you.

- Don't strangle me, right?
- No, no, no, no, no.

( Fanny whining )

- Socks? No socks?
- Socks!

( laughs )

( both moaning )

Okay.

( laughs )

- Wuaaaaa!!
- ( kids screaming )

( in Danish ) I scared you!
I got you! That was the first time!

Children:
Yaaaay! Yaaaaay!

- Help!
- Lucas: I have to catch you.

- Lucas? Lucas?
- Hi!

- You can't get away from me.
- Could you come in here for a moment?

Yes, be right there.

Boys! I can't catch you.

But I'm going inside to drink
some super juice, and then I'll be back.

- ( Kids playing )
- Hi, Grethe.

- Lucas.
- ( door shuts )

Come in and take a seat.

- How is little Marcus doing?
- It's going well.

He isn't so little anymore.
Time flies.

But yes... he... well, the plan is

that he will be moving
into my place just before Christmas.

Uh-huh.

I've been racking my brain, and I...

I just can't get it out of my head.

One of the children told me some things
that I have to talk to you about.

Yes, of course.

I know that this child has
a vivid imagination, but...

but I still wanted to mention it to you.

Yes, yes... Of course.
Who are we talking about?

Well, I can't tell you that.

The child told me that something
happened between the two of you,

which should normally
only happen between grown-ups.

What is that... What is it?
What has happened?

The child says that he/she

doesn't like you and...

that... well...

that he/she has seen your private parts.

Oh.

But, uhm, how the hell
could that have happened?

Well, I don't know.

Shit.

Yes, this isn't good.

But, uhm... stay calm.

I don't want to jump to any conclusions.
We'll figure this out.

What is it...
What exactly has been said, Grethe?

Well, I can't tell you.

It's fruit time anyway, so I...
I think I need to get going.

Perhaps it would be best
if you took a couple of days off, maybe?

Then we can sort this out
quietly and calmly.

Just finish your shift, and then,
then we'll figure it out.

- Yes... We will.
- Yes...

( shouting, playing )

Ole:
Hi, Grethe.

I hope you haven't waited long.

No, no, no, it's fine.

I'm a bit uncertain
about how this is done.

Ole:
Yes, well...

But I just think we should get started
straight away, all right?

Well... Klara,

could you try and tell me

the same thing you told Grethe?

You need to be a good girl and...

and tell him what you told me about...
about the heart.

I didn't say anything.

( Ole sighs )

Is it just something

Grethe is... is... just making up?

Or is it perhaps something
you were making up?

- No.
- Ole: All right.

Then try... and tell it to me too.

Yes... It's okay for you to tell us.

Was it something about you saying

that you had seen Lucas' penis?

See if you can tell me what Lucas did.

See if you can tell me
a bit about that, Klara.

I want to go outside and play.

But, you just have to answer, Klara.

Don't be scared.
I'm sitting right here.

I'm here for you.
Ole won't do anything to hurt you.

H-he just wants you
to tell us what happened.

Was it here in the kindergarten
that he showed you his penis?

Was it? Klara?

Klara?

You're nodding.

So it was here in the kindergarten.

Will you try and tell me
what else happened?

Grethe told me that you told her
that it was pointing.

Was it his... penis that was pointing?

I think so.
I can't remember.

Ole:
So he showed you his penis?

Klara?

Do you feel uncomfortable
talking about Lucas?

( child screeches )

But it's because
you don't like what he did?

Klara, I think that you...

you're doing really well,

and you're very good
at answering my questions.

And we're almost done, okay?

What did he do afterwards,

when he showed you his penis?

I don't really know.

Did you touch it?

Do you remember...

whether...

something white came out of it?

( gags )

( vomits )

Well, this might be a lot all at once.

You can go outside and play now.

- Can she do that?
- Oh yes,

if you just keep an eye on her,
it should be fine.

Yes...

So... you and I know
each other well, Grethe,

and that's all well and good.

But actually this is
a matter for the police.

And, of course, we need the consent
of her parents first, all right?

I'm just grateful for your help.

I'm not sure how to handle
this kind of situation.

I also know that Klara has
a vivid imagination, but...

but, but, I don't think
that's the case here.

No.

It doesn't seem like it, does it?

No.

Ole says that we should prepare to...

to make this an official matter.

Contact the relevant authorities.

We should probably cancel
the parents' meeting tonight then.

No, no, I don't think so.

It's our duty to...
inform the other parents.

Where is Klara now?

I saw her playing outside.

- Where is Lucas?
- Uhm...

I think he's outside too,
playing with some of the boys.

Shouldn't we send him home?

Yes, do that.

( kids playing )

( gate rattling )

- Hello, Grethe.
- Hello. Hi, Torsten.

- Hi, Grethe.
- Yeah, we... we're in a hurry.

We were just on our way to
football practice, when you called me.

I hope you have time
to sit down for a moment.

Yeah, wasn't it at 7:00?

Are you all right?

Yes, but we're going
to talk about Klara.

Agnes:
Yes, that was it.

Perhaps Torsten had better
wait outside while we talk.

- Yes.
- ( phone clicking )

Agnes: Torsten, wake up, go outside
and send some texts out there, okay?

And play some games.
I'll be right there, okay?

- ( Torsten sighs )
- ( door closes )

So...

What has she done this time,
the little rascal?

Something may have happened

which isn't supposed to happen
between children and adults...

Or rather,
it most likely has happened...

And I haven't been able to prevent it,
and I'm deeply sorry for that.

Klara has recounted some...
sexual details about an adult.

And I don't think children lie.
Not in that way.

Th-that is...

It sounds very strange,
what you're telling me, Grethe...

What exactly are you saying?

I'm telling you that it looks
as if Klara has been

a victim of sexual abuse
here in the kindergarten.

And it looks like a person who is very
close to you has been involved in it.

Sexual abuse...

The things she said...

She will probably deny everything now

because she is scared
and embarrassed, but, well...

But... I mean... Where...

How?

( sighs )

Let's wait and see how bad it is.

Hi, here's the cake!

Hey, you old archer.
All right, good to see you.

- Is it lactose-free?
- Yeah.

- This looks good.
- ( chattering )

Man:
Long time no see.

Hi... Hi.

Ulla: Hi.

Hi.

- Ulla: It's good to see you.
- You too.

Yes, but... but, but could I just have
your attention for a moment,

because we have an extra item
on the agenda today.

Unfortunately we have reason
to believe that the children

have been subject to indecent conduct
here in the kindergarten.

( murmuring )

Yes, it seems there is
an overwhelming likelihood

that one of the children has
been molested by an adult.

And, well, theoretically there might
be several cases of it.

There are lots of symptoms
of these types of violations,

which you can keep
an eye out for yourselves...

Bedwetting, headaches,
nightmares and such,

and we will be talking
a lot more about that tonight.

But I would like to ask you
to read this pamphlet,

which will tell you
much more about the subject.

What? Grethe... that is a very serious
accusation you're making.

Yes, yes. But there is
no need to panic, not right now.

Because we're following municipality
procedure in this matter to the letter.

Of course we are.

( Ringing, vibrating )

- ( Lucas sighs )
- ( Clicks )

Good morning, Marcus.

- ( breathing over phone )
- Hello?

Hello?

( Marcus, softly ) Dad?

Why are you whispering?

They said I couldn't call you.

Who doesn't want me to call?
What... Why not?

- What... Did something happen?
- ( sniffling )

Marcus, are you crying?

They are saying all kinds
of things about you.

That I can't talk to you or move.

Wait, calm down. Who is saying that?
ls your Mom saying that?

They called and said that you...

That all kinds of disgusting things
have happened in the kindergarten.

Don't listen to them, Marcus.
It isn't true.

- Who called you?
- Grethe from the kindergarten.

Son, listen...

Just go to school today
and I will call you later tonight, okay?

- And I will talk to your mom too.
- Okay.

Don't worry about this.
It-it's nothing. Okay, son?

( sighs deeply )

It's because I don't, well...
I should have told you...

I'm sorry...

but yesterday...
...I was told that one of the children

in the kindergarten
has said that he had...

That I had shown my penis
to him, or to her.

( laughs )

( in English )
I'm sorry, but...

That is... Really far out.

Yes.

( in Danish ) But now Marcus' mother
has been told too, so...

( in English )
By whom?

( kids playing )

Boys:
Hi, Lucas.

- Ole: Hi.
- Hi.

Boys, not now.

Is Grethe here?

- Woman: What are you doing here?
- ( door shuts)

- I thought you were on leave?
- Yeah, I just need to...

What are you doing here?
What's going on?

I need to talk to you.

Uhm, yes...
I'm in the middle of something.

Okay.

Johan:
I think you should go home, Lucas.

- And leave Grethe alone.
- Yes, but I just need to...

Grethe?

Grethe... come on.

Gre... Grethe, stop this.

Why are you leaving?

Really, Grethe, come on.
This is completely absurd.

Grethe: You shouldn't come here
when I've asked you not to.

- Lucas: I'm not doing anything.
- Stop! Stop right there.

How could you do something
like that?! You're sick!

How could...
Wh-what the hell did I do?

I... I... I... I think
it's very wrong that the two of us

are standing here together like this.

Lucas: Let me...
Let me tell you what's wrong.

You've called Marcus' mother.

He should have been here today
and now he isn't allowed...

Because you called him.

What must he be thinking now?

I believe the children,
Lucas, I always have.

They don't lie.

You just leave Marcus alone, okay?

Don't bring my family
into this at all, do you understand?

You leave my children alone,
do you hear?

You must be sick!
Klara is an innocent little girl.

Is it Klara?

- Grethe, is it Klara?
- Johan: Yes, let's stop this now.

Lucas: I'm just talking
to Grethe for a second, Johan.

I think we should get you out of here.

- What did she tell you happened? Huh?
- I want you out of here.

It's my best friend's daughter.
You know that, don't you?

Johan:
Yes, come on!

- You have to get out of here.
- Shit... It's Klara.

I guess I really need
to have a talk with Theo, huh?

- Johan: Yeah, yeah, come on.
- Lucas: What?

- Johan: Easy now.
- What are you doing here?

Why is Ulla in the office, crying?

I think you need to leave now, Lucas.

- What the hell are you doing?
- That's enough.

- What the hell are you doing?!
- The two of us don't have

anything to talk about
ever again. Let's go.

Have you gone completely mad, or?

Yeah, maybe I have.
Get out.

Get out of here!

Come on, Lucas. Leave!

( doorbell chimes )

( lock clicks )

Hi, Theo.

I need to talk to you, I think.

Yes.

Okay.
They're asleep. Come in.

I'll just fetch something to drink.

( glasses thunk)

( clinking )

I made some lemonade, so...

So if you want a bit to drink...

- So, you can just take some, here...
- ( sloshing )

Lucas:
Thank you.

So, listen...

We need to have a talk about this.

Yes.

What are they saying? Huh?

- You're asking me?
- Yes.

You need to ask
your daughter about that.

I know nothing,
they don't tell me anything.

But it has blown completely
out of proportion.

( sighs )

So I thought that you and I, we...

we'll sit down calmly...
find out what happened,

and then we'll have to go
to Grethe and... and...

Get this sorted out,
before all hell breaks loose.

You want me to ask Klara, huh?

- Is that what you're saying?
- Yes, you must ask Klara.

Yes, yes, of course.
What do you mean?

Lucas...
I know my little girl

and she doesn't lie,
and she never has.

So why would she be lying now?

Well, I don't know why.

But... she is.

( Theo crying )

Damn it, Lucas.

Theo, I haven't touched your daughter.

( sniffles )

You know I haven't, don't you?

Do you believe what
I'm telling you, or don't you?

I don't know.

Theo, I haven't touched your daughter.

You don't honestly
believe that, damn it!

I don't know, Lucas.
I don't know.

Theo?

Agnes:
What is going on here?

What... what is he doing here?
He shouldn't be here!

No... he probably shouldn't.

Lucas, you have to leave now.

Will you please tell me
what it is I've done?

- Get out of here!
- What is it you imagine has happened?

- Can you tell me that?
- Shut up!

- What did she tell you?
- You know what? Get out!

I'm not going to sit here and discuss
this with you. Get out of here!

Disgusting! You sure as hell can't sit
here on our sofa, man, in our house!

I don't want you
to ever come here again!

I'll cut your fucking
dick off, man! Get out!

Hey! Lucas!

- Are you crazy?
- If you touched my little girl,

I'll put a bullet right into your head!

And I think you have, because that's
what she's saying, isn't it?

Are you trying to ruin my life?

Are you trying to ruin
my life, is that it?

- Theo: Come here. Look at me.
- Lucas: Huh?

Theo: Look at me,
look me in the eyes. Come on.

Lucas:
What the hell are you doing, Theo?

- Hi, Klara.
- Hi, Lucas.

Theo:
Klara... go to your room.

Agnes!

Come on, honey. Come on.
We'll go to the living room.

Klara:
ls Dad upset?

No, he'll cool down
in a second, all right?

You know he will. There.

The two of us will just sit here
for a bit and wake up.

Mom, are you mad at Lucas?

Let's just sit here
for a while, honey, okay?

He didn't do anything.

It was just me,
I said something stupid.

And now everyone in the kindergarten
have started talking about it too.

They say a lot of things.

Klara...

my sweetie!

This is a bit difficult
to understand, but...

Maybe it's like this, that...

Your head would rather not
remember what happened,

because it's not a very nice thing
to think about, but...

Klara... it did happen.

And that's why it's so good

that you've told us about it, okay?

Okay, honey?

Come on.

Let's try the Christmas cookies.

- ( Kids playing )
- Grethe: Yes, hello, Nadja.

Come on in and sit down.

Yeah, so...

Yes, you'll have heard
of this very sad case?

We have... reported it to the police.

( Inger, in English )
Should I speak English?

No, it's okay.

( Inger, in Danish ) Uhm...

We have informed the parents
about the symptoms of abuse,

and they have asked their children
whether they were

having any headaches
or nightmares...

( in English )
Nightmares, you know?

( in Danish )
Yes... and uhm...

There were several parents
who felt that they did have that,

they had symptoms,
and so we chose to act on it.

( in English )
Why am I here?

( in Danish )
Are you... seeing Lucas?

( in English )
ls Lucas your boyfriend?

Yeah.

( Inger sighs )
I'll try to say it in English.

It is our duty

to inform the authorities

about such matters

in a very serious case like this.

Okay? Why?

I don't think that anyone here

is any longer in doubt

about what Lucas has done.

( Grethe, in Danish )
Lucas has been walking

to and from
the kindergarten with Klara.

They've been seen together
all sorts of places.

He has been alone with the kids
right here in the kindergarten--

in the lavatories,
in the pillow room.

Kirsten, this is me again.
Will you please call me?

( over phone) Hi, you've called
Kirsten. I can't answer the phone...

She isn't picking up.

( Nadja, in English )
Well, maybe she needs more time...

( in Danish ) That might be so,
but I need to speak to Marcus now.

Hi, you've called Kirsten.
I can't answer the phone...

What did they say in the kindergarten?

( doorbell chimes )

( chimes )

Hi, Klara.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to ask if I could
take Fanny for a walk.

Okay? Well, of course.

D-does your mom know you're here?

I think you need to talk to your mom
before you come here.

They're saying that
you've been nasty to me.

( sniffling )

Is that what you think too then?

I don't know.
I can't really remember.

What is it I'm supposed
to have done to you, sweetie?

( crying ) I don't know.
I don't remember it anymore.

It's the others too.

( sniffling )

Th-the others?
Wh-who are they?

- Klara, who else?
- ( gasps )

I'm scared.

Okay.

Don't you just want to go home then...?

What about Fanny?

( pats )
Well, she is here all the time.

You can take her
for a walk some other time.

I think you better go home now, Klara.

Lucas?

( in English )
Did you touch that girl?

( in Danish )
What?

( in English )
You are not a sick person, are you?

( sighs )

( in Danish )
Do you think I am?

( in English )
No... I'm...

No, I'm... Well, I'm just...

Uhm... I'm getting...
I'm getting, uhm...

( switches to native language )

- ( in English ) ...confused.
- ( in Danish )What do you mean?

( in English )
Nothing.

Sorry. It doesn't matter.

( in Danish )
Do you think I'm a sick person?

Do you think I'm a sick person?

No.

I think you should take
your things and leave now.

( in English ) Hey, stop it!

( in Danish )
Yes, just take your things and leave.

- No, come on. I want you to leave now.
- Hey, hey, hey!

- ( Fanny barks )
- ( yelling in native language )

( in English )
Come on... Why are you doing this?

- Lucas?
- ( in Danish ) I've touched a child.

Isn't that what you're
telling me, you idiot, huh?

- Hey...
- It's what they're all saying.

( grunting )

Get out of here, get out, get out, out!

Torsten:
You see, Klara, it's snowing.

Uh-huh... right on the elf.

Torsten: Yeah.

( holiday music playing )

This one...
This should be on the lake, right?

Torsten:
Yes, it should. They're ice skating.

Klara:
Where is he going to sit?

That's up to you.

There.

Yes.

And we'll put this one here.

- Then he can see everything.
- ( Torsten sniffling )

Sh-shouldn't he be with all the rest?
Down by the lake?

It's snowing!

Come on, don't you want
to come out and see it?

- Torsten: Yes, yes, I'm coming.
- Come on!

Wow... it's so pretty!

Wow.

Be careful not to get too cold.

There. There!

- ( wind whistling )
- ( distant banging )

( barking, whimpers )

( whining )

- ( Fanny barking )
- Fanny.

( Fanny whimpering )

- What the hell do you want, huh?
- Marcus: What?

- ( Fanny barking )
- Marcus?

Marcus.

Shit, Marcus, is that you?

I'm sorry... come here!
Come here!

- Christ, you scared me.
- Yes, and I really didn't mean to.

- Are you okay?
- Marcus: Yeah, yeah.

Hi, Fanny... Old girl.

- ( barking )
- Should we go inside?

- Yeah, let's do that.
- Does your mom know you're here?

Yeah, sure...
Where the hell is the key?

Lucas: Oh yeah, the key,
I just lent it to someone else...

I actually need to get it back.

Fanny, come! Come on!
( whistles )

- Are you hungry? Huh?
- Yes.

Fuck, this place looks like shit.

I can't believe you came... Huh?

- Hey, stop that.
- Huh?

Marcus:
Stop it.

Mom just said that it might

be a good idea
to stop by here and say hello.

Weren't you supposed
to be in school today, or what?

But, uhm... I just took

a few days off before
the Christmas holidays.

Oh... but, Marcus...
you do know that...

things aren't quite
as usual here at the moment, right?

I've been fired.

The police have become involved,

and I call them 50 times a day, but they
aren't telling me a damn thing, so...

So I'm going completely crazy.

Your mom doesn't know
you're here, does she?

Does she?

( sniffs )
Fuck, man.

I’m going to cry again.

Do you want to talk about it?

( sniffles ) No, no.

Lucas:
It's okay.

- I'll pull myself together.
- It's okay.

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

It's so fucking ridiculous, man.

It's okay.
Come here.

( knocks on door)

- ( door opens )
- Hi.

- Hi... What the hell?
- ( door closes )

if it isn't my godson.

- Hi, Marcus!
- Hi.

- Bruun: Hi.
- ( Fanny barks )

Aren't you too busy to come here?

The air feels a little dry in here.

- Lucas: Coffee?
- Bruun: Yeah.

- Did you talk to the police yesterday?
- Lucas: Yeah.

Uh-huh...
and what did they say?

They asked a lot of questions and...

it turns out that apparently

I've touched some
of the other children too now.

- Bruun: Bloody hell. That's just crazy.
- Completely.

But, damn it!
You haven't done anything!

( sighs deeply )

But it's all of them now.

It's... It's Johan.
It's Bent, it's...

Bruun:
They've all gone completely insane.

You've always put up
with way too much, Lucas,

you know that,
I've always told you that.

- Lucas: Yes, but...
- Ah.

Bruun:
All right, Fanny.

- Kirsten.
- ( Fanny barks )

Bruun:
Yeah. It still works.

( whimpering )

I don't really know.

Lucas…

- Thank you... thank you.
- Bruun: Okay?

Yeah, it'll be okay.
And now Marcus is here too, so...

Bruun: Isn't he that guy
sitting over there who is neglecting

to pour his godfather a cup of coffee?

What about your hunting
and rifle license?

- I'll be ready on October 16th.
- October 16th?

Holy shit!
That'll be the day when men become mice,

and mice become men.

Well, then call your mom
and tell her you're here.

And Marcus...

if she flares up,

I'll put her in her place.

Marcus: Okay.

( holiday music playing )

- ( beeps )
- ( man speaking over P.A. )

- ( register beeping )
- ( money rustles )

That'll be 269.50.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

- And you get 30.50.
- Thank you.

Manager:
Hi, Marcus.

Your dad isn't with you today?

- No.
- Could you tell him

that I don't want him
shopping here anymore,

and he shouldn't ask you
to do it either.

- Why?
- You know why.

There are other customers too,
all right?

And... I don't want you here.

( Fanny whines )

( barking )

- What's going on?
- Officer: Is that your son?

Yes.

- ( car door opens )
- Could I just... Son, listen to me:

Go and call your mom, and tell her
to come and pick you up, okay?

I've been arrested,
and I need to go with them now.

- Are you okay?
- Marcus: Okay.

- Officer #2: Get in there.
- Lucas: Yes.

- All the way to the other side.
- Lucas: Yes.

- ( car doors shut )
- ( engine starts)

( Fanny barking )

Fuck, man.

( Fanny whimpering )

Theo:
Hi? Hi, Marcus.

You don't have an extra key
to our house, do you?

What?

A key?

I don't think
we have it any longer.

Okay... I'll just be off again then.

Hey, Marcus?
Are you okay?

Yes.

Okay. Listen...

We know they've taken
your dad and all that.

Could I come in and talk to you?

- What?
- Could I please talk to you?

Yes, but... we...

Yeah, come on in then.

So are you hungry, or something?

Agnes: You should just go in
and say hello to Marcus, all right?

- Torsten: Okay.
- Agnes: Klara, could you please

get out the mugs, honey?

Torsten:
Hi, Marcus.

Hi.

( people chattering )

So, uhm...

Agnes:
I think the others are coming now.

- See you.
- Ulla: Hi.

- Johan: Merry Christmas.
- Agnes: Hi.

- ( woman laughs )
- ( whispers ) He is sitting in there,

so we need to just...

Well, you can just put
your jackets over there.

( clears throat )

Agnes:
...amazing...

Marcus, uhm...

We'll drive you, if you want.

Or call your mom.

Agnes:
Marcus, are you okay?

Are you okay?

I just wanted to ask,
if you would help my dad?

Agnes:
Help your dad?

Uhm...
Wh-what do you mean?

I just wanted to ask if you couldn't...

give it all an extra thought?

Marcus?
You're such a good boy,

and I can understand why you feel
this way about your dad, and...

you shouldn't pay
for his mistakes, okay? It...

But he hasn't done
the things you're saying.

Klara? Honey,
go to your room, okay?

Marcus:
No, I need to tell Klara something.

- Hi, Klara.
- Klara: Hi.

Marcus:
Are you doing okay?

- Why are you lying about my dad?
- I'm not.

Theo: Come here.
Klara, come here. Come with me.

Agnes:
Come on, Klara, let's go upstairs.

- Marcus: We need to talk.
- Theo: Klara, go to your room.

- Agnes: Theo? Let go.
- Marcus: You don't think so?

- You don't think so?
- Agnes: Let go!

Theo: Marcus, that's enough.
You should leave the girl alone.

Marcus: It's a lie.
She needs to stop! You get that?!

- Johan: Now, damn it!
- Theo: What the hell are you doing?

- I just need to talk to her!
- You get out of here now!

- Marcus: I need to talk to you.
- Johan: That's enough, boy!

- Theo: Marcus, stop that!
- Why are you lying about my dad, bitch?

Theo:
Stop that. Oh no you didn't,

- Marcus, you hear!
- Carsten: Holy shit!

- Theo: Get the fuck out of here.
- Marcus: I need to talk to her.

Johan: Enough already!
This is stopping right now.

- I need to talk to her, man!
- Johan: That's fucking enough.

What the fuck!

Damn it, Johan!
Stop it, Johan!

- Johan: Come here!
- Johan! Stop it. Come here!

- Let go of me, man!
- Go away, Carsten. You got it?!

Go home now. You go home.
Get out of here now.

Carsten:
Yeah, get the hell out of here!

- Get out of here, you hear me?
- Fuck off.

( shouts )
You're all fucking assholes, man.

Theo:
Come on, come. Come on now.

The little shit, man.

Fucking assholes, man.

- ( doorbell rings )
- ( kids playing )

Child:
No, you can't catch me. Hey, look.

Hey, Marcus.
I'm glad you came.

Come on in.
Come in and get warm.

Wow, you look all worn out, huh, boy?

Oh damn! What? How...

- Did someone hurt you?
- No.

- ( mutters ) Oh shit.
- ( kids playing )

No, you can't catch me.
Hey, look... uh...

Hey, young ladies?
Slow down up there.

Yeah, we have some family
staying over the weekend so...

- Hi!
- ( playing continues)

- Bruun: Marcus, come.
- Girl #2: Got you!

- Girl: You can't catch me.
- My two sisters.

You've met them, right?
When you were little.

- Woman: Hi.
- You probably can't remember them.

Wow, it has been so long.
How are you?

- Fine.
- I call them Chip and Dale.

They're cracking nuts.
Say hi to my dad,

he is just over there
trying to help your dad.

- Are you okay?
- ( men chatting )

- This is Lucas' boy Marcus.
- Hi.

These are my brothers-in-law,
sitting here.

- That is Elias, and Erik.
- Elias: Hi.

I'm Erik, and that surly bastard...
his name is Elias.

Sit down, Marcus, okay?
Give him some water.

Yeah, are you thirsty?

- No wine though, right?
- Yes, please.

- Is tap water fine?
- Thanks.

Marcus, I... I spoke to your mom, right?

Don't forget to call home again.
Is that understood?

( chopping )

Do you know
what's going on with Dad?

( clears throat )
What did your old man say?

Bruun:
Well, he said that, uhm...

that Lucas is going into a...

preliminary hearing
tomorrow morning, at 8:30.

And there can be
two outcomes: One:

what we're afraid might happen,

that the judge will confirm
the remand order.

- Yeah.
- Bruun: And two:

that he doesn't see any basis
to continue with the case, so...

( coughs )

What do you think will happen?

I don't know, but...

Apparently all the children are
telling the same story.

It seems they describe,
in detail, your basement,

what kind of tapestry
you have on your walls,

the color of the sofa and so forth.

But when the police went
and searched your house this morning...

They discovered... Marcus?

That we don't even have a basement?

Exactly.

- ( laughs )
- Elias: A-and what does that mean?

Erik: It means they don't have
a damn basement.

- But what does it mean for Lucas?
- It means there is still hope.

They've been telling a story
about a basement which doesn't exist.

Bruun:
Yes, it's very commonly seen in cases

like this that children
describe details,

such as for example your basement,
which doesn't exist.

And I don't know whether
it's their own imagination,

something they're making up on the
playground while talking to each other,

whether they hear it from Mom and Dad,
or see something on the television.

But I mean, people always
work from the presumption

that children are telling the truth.

And unfortunately,
very often they are.

- So what now?
- Well, now we'll...

( clears throat )
just have to wait and see, right?

They'll call us tomorrow morning,
then we'll see.

( tinkling )

( hissing, clicking )

( clicks )

Marcus.

Marcus?

( moans )

Good morning, kid.

Good morning.

Did you sleep well?

I brought you a cheese sandwich
and a cup of coffee.

Thanks.

There was just something I...

needed to talk to you about.

I just wanted to tell you

that I'm your godfather

and you can always count on me.

No matter what's going to happen, okay?

I just spoke to your dad

and it's looking good.

He's on his way here now in a cab.

What?!

He is out again.

Eat your sandwich and drink your coffee,

and then we'll go down...

and say welcome home
to your dad. ( pats)

( car approaching )

( whistles ) Hello!

Don't stand there
and fondle your boy, all right?

That'll put you back in jail.
There are eggs and bacon in here.

- It's not going to eat itself!
- Coming.

Bruun: It sure is good
to see you again, you idiot.

( laughter)

- ( barking )
- Marcus: Hey.

Hey, Fanny-girl.
Oh come on, it's not that bad.

Could the two of you grab
some shovels and dig a basement?

- Erik: Can't we use you?
- Marcus: Fanny peed on the floor.

Bruun: No, no, no. It can't be Fanny.
It must be the police.

( barking )

Bruun:
What? Brother-in-law!

Put on a pot of something!

( men chattering )

( man singing )

( whistles ) Fanny?

Lucas:
She'll be right in, son.

( music playing over radio )

Marcus:
Should I also wash,

the women's panties I found?

Huh?

Wha... What are you trying to say?

Nothing, I'm just asking you
if I should wash them.

Lucas: That would be nice,
if you can find them.

I can, in a minute.

- ( chuckles )
- If you put them in the basket.

- Is she your girlfriend?
- I thought so,

then all this happened. So...

I was actually hoping
you could meet her, but...

well, we'll have to see.

( faucet running )

What about you?
Do you have a girlfriend?

- No.
- What?

That isn't really my thing.

Having a girlfriend?

- No.
- No.

I thought there was something
about someone named Jasmin?

Marcus:
No, that was more than a year ago, man!

Ah! Ah!

( breathes heavily )

( rain pattering )

( wind blowing )

Stay here. Stay here.

Stay here.

Hello!

( wind chime tinkling )

Hello!

( plastic rustles )

( glass crackling )

( plastic rustling )

Marcus:
What's that?

- Dad, what is it?
- Just go back inside, Marcus.

Come, come,
we're going inside, Marcus.

Come on in.
Marcus, go inside when I tell you.

- Go inside when I tell you, okay?
- Stop it, man!

Lucas:
Come on.

( plastic rustles )

( Marcus crying )

( Lucas speaking softly )

I'll fucking kill you!

- Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it.
- You're fucking dead!

Lucas: What are you doing?
What are you doing?

- Let go of me, man!
- Stop it. Stop it. Stop that now.

- I'll kill you!
- Put it down. Put it down.

- ( speaks softly )
- ( Marcus grunts )

I'll kill you, man!

- ( speaks softly )
- She needs to go inside. She's cold.

( digging )

Bruun: Lucas?

Lucas?

I want to be alone, Bruun.

Where is Marcus? Lucas?

Did you send him back to his mom?

Yeah.

- Would you please leave, Bruun?
- Lucas, stop that for a moment.

Please go... damn it,
when I ask you to, okay?

I don't think you should
be standing out there,

- come on inside.
- Go home!

Go home when I tell you.
Leave.

Just go.

Here you go.
And have a very Merry Christmas.

- Thank you, you too, Per.
- Thank you.

Hello, I'd like two chops.

We don't have any chops.

Sorry, I mean those pork chops.

You can't buy anything here.

I have a right to shop here.

- ( knife clatters )
- You have to leave now.

- Get out of here.
- I would like two chops.

Okay, you have to leave now.
Come on.

Get out of here.
You can't come in here.

He shouldn't be hitting.

You can't be here anymore.

- He can't just hit me.
- I'm telling you quietly.

- He shouldn't punch me like that.
- You're leaving. Get out.

Right? You can't just
come out and punch me.

- Assistant: What's going on here?
- Lucas: Is that...

- Assistant #2: No, that's not normal.
- Lucas: Is that normal?!

- J-just punching the customers?
- Assistant: Get out. Out.

- I can walk on my own.
- Yes, we know you can. But come on.

- ( beeps )
- ( man speaking over P.A. )

- I would like to get my groceries.
- Assistant #2: Get out now!

- Assistant: We said get out!
- I haven't done anything.

I'm allowed to get
my groceries! Okay...

( grunts )

Assistant: All right, stop, stop, stop.
Get him out, man!

Get him out!
Not a moment too soon!

Butcher:
Get him out of here.

( grunts, groaning )

Assistant:
Go home! And thanks for coming!

- Assistant #2: Get lost!
- What a hit! Ha!

Butcher: Fuck off.
Don't ever come back here again.

- Assistant: What a fucking pervert.
- Butcher: You stay away from here.

( Lucas panting )

( breathing heavily )

( register beeping )

Didn't I tell you to get out of here?

This is the last time
I'm going to tell you!

I just need to tell...
I just need to tell you something.

- ( grunts )
- Assistant: What the hell is he doing?

- Hey, man. He is fucking crazy.
- ( butcher groaning )

- Are you okay? Let me see.
- And now I would like my groceries.

- He's hurt.
- Manager: Just give him his groceries!

( butcher moaning ) He's sick.

( mutters )

Butcher:
Shit, it fucking hurts.

( register beeps )

- Cashier: That'll be 45.50.
- Butcher: Ohhh, man, it hurts.

Here you go.

( car clicks )

Oh God, it's Lucas.

Look at him, he's a mess!

- I'm going to go talk to him.
- No... no, no, Theo.

Let's just stay here until he's gone.

Okay?

Where is Fanny?

I don't know.

( Theo whispers )
Holy shit.

( sighs )

( shallow breathing )

( distant bells ringing )

CHRISTMAS EVE

- ( breathing heavily )
- ( water trickling )

( groans )

( clatters )

( choir singing )

( bell ringing )

- ( chattering )
- I would like to get in.

( chattering stops )

( ringing stops )

Minister: You are
all very welcome here in the church.

Merry Christmas.

We are having a Christmas service.

And as always,

we'll be starting
with an introductory prayer.

Church assistant:
Lord, I have come into this Your house

to hear what You would say to me,

God the Father, my Creator,
You, Lord Jesus, my Savior,

you, good Holy Spirit in life
and death, my Comforter.

Lord, open now my heart
by Your Holy Spirit,

for the sake of Jesus Christ.

So that I may learn
from Your word to repent of my sins

and to believe in life
and death in Jesus,

and every day to grow
in holy life and living.

Hear me and grant this, O God,

through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Minister:
Christmas Eve in the church

is about the little baby Jesus.

- The birth of the Son of God.
- ( sighs )

Honey, what's wrong?

Minister:
This is the birthday of Jesus...

- I can see it in his face.
- ...but that isn't all.

- It's everyone's birthday.
- See what?

Minister: You can reflect on this,
when we in a moment

will recite the Lord's Prayer together.

Father, you will say,
and then it will happen,

you will have become a child,
a child of God.

It is starting now.

Now, it is Christmas,

the celebration of children.

This year, we have done something

to emphasize the gospel
for Christmas Day.

We have invited
the kindergarten's choir,

who, along with Grethe,
have been rehearsing,

so that we may all enjoy the psalm:

"A Child is Born in Bethlehem."

( people clearing throats )

Grethe:
Come, yes, you go over here.

There, there and the...
there. Okay.

Klara, you'll stand here,

a little bit more in front,
you go there.

( child coughing )

Grethe:
Yes... Could you come forward a bit,

on a line here?
That's it, that's it.

( Grethe clears throat )

( organ music playing )

Children:
в™Є A child is born in Bethlehem в™Є

в™Є Bethlehem в™Є

- в™Є And joy is in Jerusalem... в™Є
- ( crying )

в™Є Hallelujah в™Є

в™Є Hallelujah! в™Є

- в™Є A lowly maiden all alone... в™Є
- (sobs)

в™Є All alone в™Є

в™Є Gave birth to God's own Holy Son в™Є

- в™Є Hallelujah... в™Є
- ( stomps ) Ah!

- в™Є Hallelujah! в™Є
- ( sobs ) Yeah.

- в™Є She chose a manger... в™Є
- в™Є She chose a manger for His bed в™Є

в™Є For Jesus' bed в™Є

в™Є God's angels sang
for joy o'erhead... в™Є

Lucas:
What are you saying?

Are you saying something to me? Huh?

- в™Є Hallelujah... в™Є
- ( music stops )

Come on, what do you want
to say to me? Huh?

- What the hell are you doing, man!
- You want to tell me something?

- Stop it, Lucas.
- You want to tell me something?

- Take it easy. Stop it, Lucas.
- Huh? Go on!

- Take it easy!
- The whole town is listening to you!

- Theo: Take it easy. Take it easy.
- Lucas: Then say it!

- Calm down, Lucas.
- Agnes: Psychopath!

Then do it!
What do you want to say, man?!

- What do you want to s...
- Agnes: Stop it!

- Lucas: What?
- Stop that right now,

You fucking psychopath!

I'm allowed to talk to Theo here.
Take a look.

Then look into my eyes.

Look into my eyes.
Look me in the eyes.

Look, look, look.
What do you see?

Do you see anything?
What do you see, huh?

Nothing!
There is... there is nothing.

There is nothing.

You have to leave me alone now.

You do! Oh, come on, Theo,
you have to leave me alone now!

Okay?
I'll go now, thanks.

Thanks... okay.

( door shuts )

- ( chattering )
- Agnes: Oh, you're so lucky!

- Woman: You've had plenty.
- Woman #2: Oh, how nice.

- Agnes: What did you get?
- Johan: You've had plenty of presents.

Woman #2:
That was just what you wanted!

Johan:
What's up, kid?!

There... I've got her.

Johan:
That's damn lucky.

At least someone got what they wanted.

( holiday music playing )

Klara: Fanny?

Lucas?

Hi, Lucas.

I didn't mean for that to happen.

( crying )

Klara, honey?

It's not Lucas.
It's just Dad.

- Dad, are you crying?
- No.

It's just because there...

is so much evil in this world, and...

if we hold on to each other...

it will go away.

- Are you very sad?
- ( sniffling )

No.

You know that...

that Lucas... right?

He's your dad's

very, very, very best friend and...

we've... ( sighs )

driven around on mopeds...

stolen apples, and all that.

Dad told you about all that, right?

I just said something stupid.

He hasn't done anything.

- No.
- No.

Just go back to sleep, okay?

There.

- ( Bottles clink )
- ( man laughing )

( rustling )

Agnes:
What are you doing, honey?

Just go back to the others.

( fridge closes )

Who is that for?

Listen, I just need 10 minutes
then I'll be back.

Move aside.

Theo.

You're not going to his place.

Agnes, move aside.

( footsteps )

- Theo: Hey.
- ( gasps ) What?

- Lucas.
- What are you doing here?

Theo:
It's just me.

What the hell are you doing here?

Well...

I brought some f-food,
if you want some.

Are you hungry?

You can go ahead and eat if you want.

( bottle thuds )

( glass clatters )

( cap rattles )

( liquid sloshing )

( bottle thuds )

( silverware scraping )

It's good.

You can go back
to your own house if you want to.

No...

if it's okay, I'd...

I would like to just sit here for a bit.

If-if that's okay.

( muffled singing )

THE FOLLOWING YEAR

( chattering )

- Ready?
- Yeah.

Hi, Johan.

- ( Nadja, in English ) Hi, how are you?
- Hello.

( Torsten, in Danish )We were
just killing ourselves laughing.

- Marcus: What's up, Torsten?
- What's up, Marcus? Good to see you.

- Bent: Hey.
- Lucas: Hi, Bent.

So we're back here again. Hi.

- Lars T.: Lucas?
- What the hell?

- Hi.
- Good to see you.

Lucas:
Yeah, you too.

( chattering )

- ( applause)
- Bruun: All right... shh.

You have to shut up now!

Because we're all gathered here
for a very special reason.

This is the day,

where boys become men,

and men become boys.

Marcus, you big lad.

You've gotten your hunting license

and tomorrow you're going
on your first hunt, at daybreak.

You're becoming a...

a grown man.

Now it's your turn
to conquer the woods.

- Come up here, my boy.
- ( cheering )

- ( whistles )
- Bruun: It makes me so happy,

to have you standing here today.

And that's why I want to give you this.

( rustling )

( cheers, applause )

I wish that it was...
that you were my boy

and that I was the one who was
giving you this beautiful rifle.

But it's not.
It's your dad,

who is sitting right there,
who has given it to you.

And it has been in your family
for generations, and now...

now it belongs to you.
So take good care of it.

You grandfather,
who is buried here in town,

missed many a deer,

- before his family finally...
- ( laughter)

...got food on the table.

Think about that,
and congratulations, my boy.

( men cheer)

All:
в™Є We hope that he will drink with us в™Є

в™Є Will drink with us,
will drink with us в™Є

в™Є We hope that
he will drink with us в™Є

в™Є That he will drink with us! в™Є

в™Є That he will drink
with us! в™Є

- Cheers!
- Cheers and congratulations, my boy!

There is lunch in the next room!

( chattering )

Lucas: Oops... is there none left?
There isn't juuuust...

- Woman: We'll bring some.
- Lucas: Great, thanks.

Lucas:
Oh, that's going to be tough.

There are a lot of lines
you can't step on.

Yes, that's what I was
just thinking about too.

- Hi, Klara.
- Hi.

Lucas:
Are you okay?

So... what are we going to do
about all those lines?

I don't know.

- There are so many of them.
- Yes.

Come on.

Oh.

Carefully,

with very long strides...

We made it!

I think your dad is in here.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

- ( Marcus whistles )
- Lucas: Hey... shush,

- you're scaring away the game.
- ( chuckles )

Fuck, what am I doing?

- Did I ruin everything?
- Lucas: Oh, no, no.

They'll come back.

Marcus, go wait by your deer stand.

You're going to have to wait
for a while on your own,

but they'll come.

Are you ready?

( gunshot)

( panting )

( Cocks )

( breathing shakily )

( acoustic guitar playing )

( instrumental music playing )

THE HUNT
