Anna?

Where is Anders?

Where is Anders?

Anna?

Where is Anders?

Here it is.

You want some milk?

Anders?

Come.

Anna? Hallo?

Hey! Let me in, Anna.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Do you like the apartment?

- Absolutely.

- Haven't you been awake?

- I slept badly, I just woke up.

- You remember the importance of routines?

- Yeah. He sleeps here.

As the court has determined,

he doesn't know where you live.

- If you want a phone...

- I will not.

If you want a phone,

you gotta tell us.

- He won't know the school Anders's going on.

- He will not go to school.

He is not ready.

I taught him to read, we read at home.

All children must attend school.

As the situation is now, Anders may

begin to live a completely normal life.

He'll start school on Wednesday.

He will also be there.

He needs to be with other kids.

You will sleep with me, right?

Father held the boy's head under water...

marked by the traumatic incident he had...

Goodbye, my dear.

Hello!

Excuse me...

They've just moved the bus stop.

It's right over there.

Hi.

Hi. Do you work here?

Absolutely.

- Was it okay with the bus stop?

- Yes.

I am a bit nervous today.

My son has just started school.

Don't apologize.

I'm pretty worried myself.

Is there anything I can help you with?

Something you're looking for?

- I saw that you had baby monitors.

- Yes, we have in the department there.

This is not my department, but...

- How old is your baby?

- He's not a baby. He's eight.

I am a worried mother.

People think I'm hysterical,

but I cannot help it.

- No, I understand.

Just because you are

so fond of him, right?

Yes.

This is on offer. A good model.

Two channels, high-impact, belt clip...

I need to hear him

when he's in the other room.

This one can do that.

Good...

Thank you for your help.

Look what I've bought.

Is it our house?

Draw the lake, so the teacher

can see how well you live.

- Where is it?

- On the other side of the forest.

- We can go there when it would be warmer.

- Do you promise? Swear?

Yes.

Hello?

Do you hear me?

Anna to Anders, come in.

Mom, where are you?

Hello?

Anna to Anders, come in.

- Cool! You bought a walkie-talkie?

- No, just an baby monitor.

- Mom! Mom!

- You have to talk into this.

- Can I try?

- Yes, but be careful.

I am a walkie-talkie!

Anders to mom,

guess where I am now?

Where can Anders be?

I'm gone.

Guess where I am now.

There you go.

Do not touch it. So I hear you

in my room when you sleep.

You can be a big boy,

and I'll know you're doing well.

- You won't sleep here?

- No. I'll sleep in my room and you in yours.

Cool!

- I am a monster!

- No, Anders. Now we won't play anymore.

You know that mommy loves you,

and cannot live without you?

I know, Mom.

- Sleep well.

- Good night.

Helge? I would like to talk to you.

- I must be at work now.

- Come, let's sit a bit.

- I do not understand what you are asking.

- About what we do if the mother cannot even breathe.

Or get cardiac arrest.

- We must help her, right?

- She is very ill. Maybe she needs the respirator.

As weak as she is now,

she will never get out of it.

But she sat there in bed

only two days ago.

I know.

What happens if we do not use a respirator?

Then she dies.

I just want you to think about it.

Ask yourself what you think

mom would have wanted.

I'm going.

Bye.

- Do you have any fours?

- You ask just about fours. No, go jump in the ocean.

- No!

- Do you have any sevens?

Yes, I have.

No!

No, I will not!

Shut up!

- Let go, damn!

- No, let me!

Let me go!

No!

I will not!

Let me go! No!

No! No!

- What is it? I'm going to school.

- No, today we will have school at home.

Who is it?

It's Grete and Ole

from child welfare.

I'm coming!

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Why isn't he in the school?

- He's a little sick.

- Why doesn't he sleep in his room?

- He did, but...

How will this all look in

the resumption of the process?

Resumption?

- It is enough.

- What are you talking about?

Your ex-husband has got

a new lawyer who believes,

that only one party has been heard.

- You know what he has done!

- He believes the evidence is too weak.

- He thinks it's strange that you are the only witness.

- He tried to throw him out the window!

- What do I do?

- Do not lie about why Anders isn't in school.

Ole, we have to go.

Took your folder?

We are following up closely, and the right

attaches greatly emphases our assessment.

Torstein, can you put on a movie instead?

- Hi.

- Hi.

Doesn't it work?

I heard something that I do not understand.

It was a sound that

wasn't from my son.

- I forgot to tell...

- What?

You have probably heard the sound

from another baby monitor.

- You can hear the other's sound?

- Yes, if there is one nearby.

Just change the channel,

and everything is in order.

I awoke in the middle of the night

of a child screaming.

See here.

This is the channel selector. Remember,

they must be on the same channel.

So you can sleep safely.

- I should have been clearer. I'm sorry.

- It's all right.

Helge! It's the telephone.

I must go. If you have problems again,

just come back again.

Or if you just want to talk.

It is also nice.

I have lunch at twelve, so...

What have you done!?

He's going home with us.

He's my friend.

Hello, my name is Anna.

What is your name?

- We must talk to your parents.

- They are not at home.

Are you hungry?

Should I make pancakes?

There are approximately...

Anders?

You know you cannot go out.

Anders?

Anders?

Anders?

Where have you been?

Where is your friend?

- You've ruined it.

- What?

- The drawing.

- I can just erase it.

You can not erase the blood.

What are you talking about?

This was not me.

It must have been your friend.

It is probably not!

Anders!

Anders, you cannot go out!

Anders!

Anders...

Anders?

Anders, this is not funny!

Anders!

Anders! You cannot do that.

- I did not mean...

- Shh!

Come! Quick!

So, you saw a man taking

out a plastic bag,

and, you immediately thought

that there was a corpse?

You have a great imagination.

You have it.

You remind me a bit of my mom.

She always imagined such things.

Some terrible things.

One time she called the police.

Because a man asked for directions.

Do you think I'm fantasizing?

I think you are a good

and a very sensitive person...

who have had too little sleep lately.

It's not often you meet people

that want to talk to you.

Mom used to take me here. Often.

Before she became ill.

She is in hospital now.

By the way, I saw you here

the other day. I thought to say hi.

No, I have never been here before.

- It was strange. I'm sure it was you.

- No, you must have been wrong.

Then it must have been someone

who were quite similar.

It was so strange.

I demonstrated a camera for a client.

Then I took a picture.

Then I saw you. What I thought was you.

Have you experienced coming home

and not knowing where you were?

I... suddenly don't remember.

I have followed Anders to school,
