The Invisible (Osynlige, Den)

THE INVISIBLE

I'm so proud of myself, and of Nicklas, of course,

that we have come so far.

You know...

Ever since Gunnar, Nicklas' father, died,

we have had to struggle.

But today we're enjoying the fruits of our labour.

And today Nicklas really is the son that I've always wanted to have.

Cheers!

You're rather pale.

Do you suffer from insomnia?

No.

Remember the Writers' Institute that I talked about?

In London?

Are you going out in that weather?

Change...

It doesn't fit with the trousers.

Great! Thanks!

You don't want to know the story?

No, why?

What are you doing?

Why're you smiling?

I was thinking about something.

Congrats!

Will you come to my party tomorrow?

Sorry, Sussie... I'd love to, but I'm busy.

You could be busy with me...

See you at dinner tonight.

What?

Your mother invited me.

Didn't she tell you?

He hasn't got anything.

Take his hand.

There you are!

You wanna lose it?

Then get the money, for Christ's sake!

Girls!

They're just like football to me

We attack. They'll be the defenders

But when we think we're in control, there's the goal keeper, another soul

And we can never shoot a goal since girls glide like a soap in a bowl

Thanks, Ludwig. Quite revealing.

Nicklas, your turn.

Shit, I'm getting nervous.

Okay...

I look ahead

But I see nothing

The mist of uncertainty lies heavily over the path

Far ahead I hear someone call out my name

An uncertain voice from an uncertain place

I'm still here

Travelling with all the others afraid of going their own ways

But I can't defy the voice

I can't close my eyes, smile, and stay like all the others

I have to go

I must sneak away in the night

Alone

Unobserved

Without farewell

Very good, Nicklas, really good.

Yeah...

On Wednesday, you'll have questions on these poems.

You heard me?

Hello.

Have you been biting your nails or was it your wife who...?

Oh no, I'm not married yet, thank heavens!

Don't look at me like that.

I needed a new mobile.

And how will you dial without fingers?

You must stand up for yourself.

You mustn't keep getting run over.

That's easy for you to say.

When you talk, people listen.

But when I say something...

Forget it.

How much does he owe you?

Is that enough?

Fuck off!

You're so fucking wrecked.

Annelie!

In a month, you've got your exam.

Why do you behave like this?

That's none of your bloody business. I do what I want.

Not in this school.

Well, you can go now.

She has no future.

But you have, Nicklas.

Nicklas, Susanna's glass is empty.

Has Nicklas told you that we're moving to Stockholm?

No. What a coincidence!

I'd like to move to Stockholm, too.

That'd be nice!

For all of us.

We're pretty sure that Nicklas will be accepted at the school of economics.

How exciting!

And after that, I've already got him a job as a stockbroker.

That's a good start.

How perfect!

Shall we give it to him?

Open it.

Try it on!

I don't want to.

Please! Do it for me.

For us.

You look great!

Are you sure about this?

Hell, yes.

Was that a joke, or what?

Great.

Watch out...

Come in.

Hi.

Hi.

From Petra and Sebastian.

They both need a paper on Strindberg tomorrow.

They are ready.

The time has come.

I'm leaving.

Sure, I've heard that one before.

London.

I have an interview at the Writers' Institute.

I don't know if I'll be accepted, but I have to try.

Shit! Tomorrow night!

Does your mom know about this?

What do you think?

If she learns about it...

She will...

When I'm gone.

But, you'll be back, right?

Christ, this is crazy.

It's my life, nobody else's. I must decide for myself.

If I stay here, I'll die.

Are we gonna do it or not?

They're still there.

Normally they've left by now.

What are you on about? It's fucking empty!

What are you doing?

Hey, take it easy!

We'll be back later. It's too risky right now.

Give me the key.

Is it risky now?

Give me the key!

What the hell...

Shit!

Shit! Shit!

Come on...

Are you fucking crazy, or what...?

Watch out!

What are you doing?

I'm off to school.

Leave the bag here.

Hell, no!

What did you say?

When you get the balls to do the job yourself, then you can have the stuff.

Shit!

Shit...

Fucking shit...

This is the Police. What can I do for you?

I've got information about a robbery.

Hello, this is Kerstin.

I want to come with you.

What?

Why?

I want to leave, too.

I want to be free, just like you.

You are... you are my only friend.

It wouldn't work.

I need someone to write to.

Take it easy.

You, too.

Mom, I can explain.

Explain?

Explain what? There's nothing to explain.

I thought we were friends.

I thought we trusted each other.

And then you do this to me.

Explain one thing to me, Nicklas.

What else do I have to do?

I need to know that.

Answer me!

Haven't I tried to give you everything you need?

I'm your mother, Nicklas.

I love you.

All I want is that you'll have a future.

But if you think that you'll be happy this way,

then go ahead...

Marcus, Marcus!

Yes?

You're wanted on the phone.

Do you mind...

Yes, it's Marcus.

Hi.

They got me.

They found the stuff in my locker.

Oh, no...

Is it true? Shit!

You haven't said anything?

Sure, I did. Do you think I'm stupid?

Anyway, they'll let me go.

There'll be a trial.
