but first: A year has passed since...

the rockslide at Åkerneset
in the Geiranger Fjord...

that resulted in an 80-meter-high tsunami.

248 lives were lost in this brutal
encounter with the forces of nature.

And we have heard powerful stories...

of courage, compassion and survival.

But also questions about
what we as a society...

could have done to prevent such a disaster.

And not least: If something similar
can happen again.

The Geiranger Commission presented
its report this week.

Director and senior research
specialist in Norsar,

Johannes Løberg, welcome.

What is your procedure, as a scientist,

when searching for meaning,
for answers after such an incident?

When we are struck by forces of nature,
we are struck blindly.

Unfortunately, no one can say exactly...

when or where an earthquake will strike.

And particularly a small quake like the one
that triggered the rockslide in Geiranger.

Based on that knowledge,
should anyone live there at all?

Those are extremely difficult
assessments to make.

But we can't live in constant fear.

Because we can't govern nature.

After all, we live in the midst of it.

We aren't going to sit here alone, Løberg.

We are going to invite in a man...

who has justifiably been called
a hero after this tragedy.

But before he comes in,
look at these images.

Are you ready? You'll do fine.

Good luck.

Many of those who were
in Geiranger on May 6 of last year...

have one man to thank
for being alive today:

Please welcome geologist Kristian Eikjord.

Hi.

Hi.

Sorry I'm late.

Did you forget about me?

Forget about you?
No, are you crazy?

It's good to see you.

- Want me to take that?
- Sure.

You must be hungry.

Yeah. A little.

I haven't been to the store.
But... Omelets?

Sure.

Omelets and crispbread?

Sounds great.

How are things going at home?

Any love interests yet?

No.

What about you?

Me?

No way.

Do you miss mom?

Yes. Sometimes.

Maybe things would go better now?

Maybe, I...

I'm doing pretty good here.

"MISSING"

"SURVIVED - LOST EVERYTHING"

Please come.

Julia, please come.

What is this?

It's just something I'm working on.

What is it?

It's getting late. Come on.

Let's go back downstairs.

I don't understand why you have all this.

Julia, it would be impossible
for you to understand.

So many people died in that disaster.

So many people we knew, so many...

You saved mom and Sondre.

You saved me.

Come on. Let's go back downstairs.

Come on.

"THE WHISTLE-BLOWER"

Good morning! I've made breakfast.

Crispbread with cheese and red peppers.

And I reheated yesterday's coffee.

And I cleaned up.

I think it's best you leave.

Leave?

Why?

Julia, you're a big girl now.

You realize I can't have visitors now.

But I thought I was supposed
to leave on Thursday.

I think it's best for you,

considering how dad is feeling now...

that you just go home.

But I've booked a ticket.

Come on. Let's go pack.

tunnel. The cause of
the accident is still unknown,

but the police have supplied...

some information regarding
the serious accident.

It was quickly established
that two lives were lost.

The Oslofjord Tunnel is
now closed in both directions...

and it is not known when it will reopen.

There are 32 subsea tunnels in Norway...

with a steeper gradient than
the Oslofjord Tunnel,

but many have complained
that this one is too steep.

The identities of
the two deceased have now been confirmed.

They are Inga Hansen and Konrad Lindblom.

Their next of kin have been notified.

Lindblom worked as a geologist for Norsar.

He was allegedly not involved with the
ongoing construction work in the tunnel.

Our reporter Mats Andersen arrived at
the scene shortly after the incident.

There have been many accidents in
the Oslofjord Tunnel.

Now two people have died in there.

And this after many people
have demanded it be shut down for good.

We are not allowed inside the tunnel,
but what we know,

what the police have told us,
is that the two people...

were killed by falling
debris in the tunnel.

I am here with a representative from
the Public Roads Administration.

What can you tell us about...

"Dear Kristian, It's been a while..."

"Please contact me ASAP!"

"Yours truly, Konrad Lindblom."

Kristian? Hi.

Hi.

It's good to see you.

Beard and all. I hardly recognized you.

Coffee?

Sure, if you have some.

Ingrid, do you have those copies for us?

Yes.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

I think I have gone through
everything you asked for. Yes.

"12/25/06, HANEKLEIV TUNNEL."

"NO MOVEMENT."

No movement at any of them?

No.

I don't mean to speak ill of Konrad,

he was a good man. But he could...

He could sometimes go a little too
far with his alternative theories.

And our measurements have never
been more precise than they are today.

We are at a detail level we
could only dream about.

Pull up that 3.8 from Bergen last year.

Let's see.

Look at that.

So there were several movements that day?

No, the yellow dots are man-made tremors.

Things like construction, blasting.

Only the red dots are
confirmed earthquakes.

So... Norway will be just fine.

And if anything should happen,
Ingrid is here keeping an eye on things.

We kept an eye on things in Geiranger too.

Of course, but Kristian...

We can't measure a tremor before it occurs.

"RØA, 7KM FROM OSLO CITY CENTER"

Hello?

Hello?

In here.

Hi.

Hi.

My name is Kristian Eikjord.

I worked with Konrad.

I see.

Then you know that he's dead?

Of course. Are you family?

Konrad is my father. Or was my father.

I'm sorry. My condolences.

But you said you worked together?

Yes, or...

Konrad was a friend, and he contacted me.

I didn't think dad had any friends.

Well, we were maybe more
colleagues than friends, but...

I'm very interested in his work.

There are some documents I need to see...

Go have a look in his office.

The funeral home is calling.

You sure?

Yes. It all has to go anyway.

Thank you.

Hello, this is Marit.

Yes, a low wooden house
next to a big yellow one.

OK, yes. I'm just...

Fuck me!

"OVER 60,000 WITHOUT POWER"

Hi, Kristian.

How do we know
the yellow dots aren't actually red?

What do you mean?

How do we know what's man-made
and what tremors are caused by nature?

Like I said, it's
construction work, blasting.

It happens all the time.

I realize that, but how do we know?

The contractors report it.

Are you telling me they report
every time they blast?

No, they report the project.

So the contractor reports their activity
from one date to another,

that covers the entire construction period?

Yes, basically.

And there's construction work in
the Oslofjord Tunnel right now?

Yes.

Call that contractor.

Kristian, that's a little...

Please just do me this one favor
and I won't bother you anymore, OK?

If there wasn't any construction
going on that day...

what was it then?

Kristian, I'll make some calls, OK?

Thank you.

"GAMLEBYEN,

"1.2KM FROM OSLO CITY CENTER"

Hi, Sondre.

Hi, dad.

This is Mia. My girlfriend.

Hi.

Hi.

Lucky to run into you.

Well, I live here.

Of course.

Are you going somewhere?

Yes, we're going to a movie.

Maybe we can talk later?

Sure.

Nice to meet you.

Hi.

Hi.

You look good.

Thanks.

So do you.

And Julia?

She's actually in bed.

OK.

She forgot this.

She has her dress rehearsal
at the opera tomorrow.

What, is she singing?

Dancing ballet.

You can come watch.

Would you like to do that?
If you have time.

Of course.

She'd like that.

I'm sorry about what happened
with Julia in Geiranger.

We both know things haven't
been easy for me of late.

Sometimes I think it must be
lovely to just lie down on your back...

with your feet in the air
and have a little breakdown.

You should give it a try. It's pretty nice.

Idun?

What I'm about to tell you...

is going to sound completely insane.

I don't mean to scare you.

Sure, it's an old building.

But this is the second time this week.

These look fine.

Maybe a little warm. Hold this.

Could you shine the light here? Hello?

Could you give me some light, Kristian?

Now what do we do?

Idun, it's OK.

No.

It isn't OK.

I understand why you left me.

What I was about to tell you...

Kristian, I didn't leave you.

You left us.

Hi.

Hi.

Hello. I can't wait to see you!

Mom, when is dad coming?

I'm not sure. But he knows when it starts.

Dad's coming to watch today.

Cool!

Are you nervous?

Break a leg!

Break a leg!

Hello?

Hello?

In here.

What are you doing?

I think your dad was onto something big.

I'm afraid I need to lock up. I have to go.

Haven't you ever had the sense
that something is about to happen,

but you don't know what?

I grew up with a dad who
always had that sense.

He couldn't even drive
by a pile of rocks...

without bringing some samples home.

In case there was something there.

Have you read this?

But he was wrong.

Yes, maybe regarding the timing.

But what he was right about is...

if a quake hits Oslo today,

say it isn't as powerful as in 1904.

Say it's a six

An eight.

That isn't twice as powerful.

It's a million times more powerful.
Thousands of people will die.

I really have to go.

But maybe you found some
of what you were looking for?

Feel free to take whatever you want.

Know what?
This may be hard for you to hear right now.

But some things are
more important than a daughter.

Or a son. Or a family.

OK. But either way, I have to leave.

I have to pick out songs
for my dad's funeral.

Because he had something "important"...

to do in the Oslofjord tunnel.

Do you know why I think he was there?

No.

Because he wanted to save you.

You. And many others.

I need to see that tunnel.

I am not going down in that tunnel.

Don't you wonder what he
was doing down there?

This is important.

What?

Can't we just leave?

Hang on.

Hold this.

Can you give me some light?

Kristian?

In a minute.

Hi, Idun.

Hi.

Hi there.

Where are you?

I'm so sorry.

Are you coming?

I was on my way.
But then something came up.

So I was delayed.

OK. Are you close?

I...

Kristian? Are you there?

Hello? Are you there?

Hello? Can you hear me?

Yes, I hear you.

Are you coming, or not?

We're on our way.

Huh?

We're on our way.

Hello? Idun?

Idun, can you hear me?

Idun? Hello?

Julia?

Julia!

Idun?

Kristian...

Hi, have you seen Julia?

She's over there.

Hey, you aren't allowed in here!

Julia?

You have to leave!

Have you seen my daughter?

You have to leave!

I'm looking for my daughter!

She was on stage.

Didn't you hear me?

There's no one here!

Julia?

Everyone has left.

It isn't safe in here.

You have to get out!

Julia?

Julia?

Hi! Are you hurt?

Are you OK?

Come on out, honey.

Come on. We have to go.

Where is dad?

He didn't come.

I'm sure he's fine.

We have to get out of here.

Come on. Everything will be OK.

Come on. Come to me.

Hello, Idun?

Hi. We're on our way home.

Meet us here.

OK, I'll be right there.

Good.

OK.

Johannes. It was a quake, wasn't it?

What are you doing here?

Come on. They've contacted you.

It was an earthquake, wasn't it?

There was some movement.

We're looking into it.

Some movement?

You see what's happening, right?

I need to go do my job.

Hey!

That... is Oslo.

Know why Konrad was in that tunnel?

He was taking stone samples.

And that is the sample he failed to take.

Just give me a minute.

Kristian... That sample.

It doesn't prove anything.

We already know that the rock conditions
around the Oslofjord Tunnel are poor.

But just because some rocks fall in
the Oslofjord Tunnel...

doesn't mean an earthquake is imminent

It just means another accident
in Norway's most accident-ridden tunnel.

Those yellow dots of yours...

The earthquake is hiding behind the blasts.

Those blasts are simply camouflage.

Look.

Look at this pillar.

This isn't about blasting.

It isn't about camouflage.

It's about a construction flaw.

The movement we registered
was caused by the Opera itself.

If there had been
an earthquake we wouldn't be standing here.

This entire area is built on marine clay.

That's like jello at a
child's birthday party.

A little push in one corner,
and everything will start shaking.

You've had power outages...

Kristian. There can be
a thousand reasons for a power outage.

I know this isn't easy.

You survived a disaster.

I can't even imagine the nightmare
you have been through.

But that doesn't mean disasters
follow you wherever you go.

Please, Kristian, just leave.

Kristian? What's happening?

Go home.

There can be many reasons
for a construction error in a pillar.

That's what we're looking into.

It was quite dramatic for
the children at the Opera in Oslo...

Where were you?

Why didn't you come?

I apologize.

I'm sorry.

But I'm here now.

Why are you here?

Why come here?

What do you want?

I'm not quite sure.

Christ, I keep looking
for disasters wherever I go.

We miss you.

Can't you at least try to be a father?

Idun, you don't understand...

What don't I understand?

What don't I understand?

I was in Geiranger too.

You did everything you could, Kristian.

You saved many people.

And your family survived.

We were fortunate.

We're here.

All of us.

So your computer system registered...

the power failure at the Opera at 20:05:18?

And the accident happened a few
seconds later, say 20:05:30.

Yes. Good.

Thank you. Bye.

Can you give me the time for
the movement at the Opera yesterday?

Yes.

It was registered at 20:04:57.

Yes. Oops!

I just stepped in some water.

OK. I'm on my way now.

I'll have a look at it.

My foot got soaked.

Hi.

Hi.

Sure you're ready for this, dad?

The whole family, and all?

I hope so.

So you'll be staying a while?

I sure hope so.

Good.

Hi!

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Where are you going?

To the university.

Now?

Yeah.

Don't you want any food?

No, I'm all set. Bye.

Bye.

Are you and mom back together again?

Honestly, I don't know.

Hi.

Hi. I have to show you something.

OK.

Yes, any activities of yours.

Blasting and so on.

Over all of Oslo.

No, there's no cause for concern.

We're just performing a study. Thank you.

Johannes, look at this.

It looks like some sort of system.

It's a warning system.

Gas. Gas is killing those rats!

Gas?

A limnic eruption.

Hi.

A limnic what?

Toxic gases seep through the rock.

Lake Nyos in Cameroon, 1986.

But gas? I thought you
were worried about an earthquake.

That is what I'm worried about.

And it's happening right now.

Go get dressed.

Nausea is a physiological process
where we reject...

Put your seat belt on.

Where are we going?

To get your mom.

Answer, dammit!

What? Tell me more, Idun.

I don't know what to say.

Wasn't he off his rocker last fall?

Is he back to normal?

Right now he is, yes.

What will happen the
next time he goes nuts?

Hey, everything will be fine.

Keep going. Go! Go!

In cultures such as England and Norway...

What? Again?

Sorry.

Read it out loud, if it's so important.

Where were we?

"From Dad: IF YOU'RE INSIDE A BUILDING,
GET OUT NOW!"

What is it?

Nothing.

Why are we driving so fast?

This is the police.

I have placed four bombs at the University.

They will go off in ten minutes.

At the University?

Yes, at the University!

Take a left here.

I can't!

Go straight in!

Wait, dad!

I'll be right back.

Don't leave me.

Please. I'll be right back. I promise.

I'm just going to get your mom.

You stay here with Marit.

Can you promise me that? Please.

Marit? Keep an eye on Julia!

Dad!

Yes, I understand.

Hi.

I'll take a look at that.

Can I call you back?

Idun Eikjord.

I need to talk to her right now.

There's been an accident.

I need to talk to her.

Where is she?

Idun?

Idun.

I think she's on 34.

34?

The 34th floor.

Shit!

The last elevator, all the way up.

Hi, Kristian.

Johannes?

If you haven't seen anything
on your screens yet.

I promise you that very soon
you'll see massive movement.

Kristian...

If we don't prepare...

We have some...

Call someone!

Who?

We have to start warning people.

Can we talk later?

There won't be any "later"!

Please, call someone.

I don't know.

Sound the air-raid siren.

Johannes? Johannes?

Metaphorically in the
right way, so that the...

Mia, we have to get out of here, now.

I have a bad feeling. We have to get out.

Hang on.

Maybe we should vacate the premises?

Never mind.

Note the metaphors that are
used for animals that are hunted...

Move! I have a delivery.

Can't you just drive around me?

Fine, I'll move!

Julia?

Julia?

Julia! Julia!

Give me a second.

Hi.

You have to come with me.

What is it?

Everyone has to get out of here.

Huh?

Everyone has to get out of here.

An earthquake is about to happen.

Kristian, please calm down.

And it's about to happen right now.

We can't stay up here.

This is the worst possible place to be.

We have to get out now!

Kristian, calm down.

Calm down.

If an earthquake was imminent,
surely someone would know.

They would warn us.

There is no warning. Come on!

I'll go down with you

and we'll sit down
and talk over a cup of coffee, OK?

Excuse me, everyone.

Please leave the building.

Do you have any idea
how much a false alarm costs?

Julia!

Since you triggered the alarm,

the elevators descend automatically to
the ground floor.

Why is Julia here?

This transformation is interesting...

Let's get out of here.

Hey, I've had enough of you.
Can't you just...

The alarm sounded. We should leave.

The alarm has stopped.
Either sit down, or leave.

You should all leave with me.

I'm in the middle of a lecture here.
Either sit down, or leave.

Don't panic.

Remain calm and just go to the stairs.

Everyone needs to leave.

No signal?

Hello?

Johannes?

Get down! Get down!

Julia?

Idun?

Idun? Idun...

Idun?

Are you all right?

Look at me. Look at me.

Is everything OK?

Look at me.

Are you OK?

Say something, Idun. Please.

Idun?

Julia!

Hi, can you hear me?

Are you OK, Julia?

Grab there, and pull.

OK, on three I want you to pull.

One, two, three!

Pull! Pull!

No! Julia! Julia!

We'll get through this.

But we have to do it together.

You and me.

There's an opening down there.

Are you OK?

Hold here. Press as hard as you can.

No!

Julia, run!

Up there!

As fast as you can!

Run!

Hang on!

No!

No!

Grab something!

Julia!

Idun?

Idun! Look out!

Idun?

Can you move?

There will be aftershocks.

So we have to get out of here.

We have to get down and
out through that opening.

And then we'll get Julia.

No.

Idun?

Idun.

Stand up, and I'll swing this over.

I know you can do it.

Come on.

I'll catch you.

Julia's waiting up there.

Come on.

Come on. Stand up.

Come on. That's good.

Excellent.

I'll swing it over to you, and you grab it.

OK.

I'll let go, and you grab it.

Just hang on. I'll grab you. Come on.

Hang on!

Just climb up a little bit,
and I'll grab you.

Kristian...

Come on. Come on, please.

I can't do it.

Please, don't...

Please.

I love you.

Don't say that.

Idun, don't...

Just a little higher.

You have to save Julia.

Idun, no!

Just climb up a little further,
and I'll grab you.

Do you hear me?

Just a few inches,

and I can grab you. Please!

Just a little further.

That's it!

Come on, come on.

Come on.

Help!

Help!

Marit?

We're down here!

Julia?

Dad!

She's over here! Help!

I'm coming!

Dad!

Hi!

I thought I had lost you.

Let me look at you.

Where's mom?

Where's mom?

I'm so sorry.

Don't leave me.

Look at me.

I'm staying right here.

I promise.

Thank you.

Listen to me.

We have to get out of here.

OK?

Come on.

No!

Julia!

Julia!

Julia!

Dad!

Julia!

Kristian!

Dad!

Dad!

Julia! Don't move!

Julia! Don't move!

Marit!

I'm coming!

Marit!

Dad!

Dad!

Marit!

Marit!

Yes!

I need you to grab Julia!

OK.

I'll swing her over. Ready?

Ready.

Julia, I'm going to swing you over now.

I'll count to three, OK?

One, two... three!

Let go!

Julia, you have to let go.

I've got you, Julia.

Let go of me now.

Julia, let go of your dad!

Let go of him!

Let go.
