What does the illness do to your body?

It attacks your motor neurons.

Your what?

They're what makes us able to move.

How?

Usually it starts in your hand or foot.

You get weak -

Even the simplest things needs focus.

Yeah? Like smoking a joint?

Yes. Then the weakness increase.

You stop being able to do stuff.

As the muscle tissue fades,

your joints stiffen -

- and your hand curves inwards like this.

What? Like this?

Yes. Then the same thing

happens to your feet.

What's so funny?

What's so funny?

And then what?

You're put in a wheelchair?

Yes, weelchair!

Electric wheelchair! .

That's actually kind of fun.

You get to steer with your hand and just...

Are you able to move your finger?

But you can still feel

everything on your skin.

On your skin?

Yeah, you never stop feeling,

even though you get paralyzed.

But you'll be lying there..

And the only way you can

communicate is trough your eyes.

But I can still speak though my skin...

What'd you do that for?

I don't know. I wanted to know

how it is, to kiss a girl.

Veronica?

Oh, hi! Eirik!

-Hi, nice to see you.

-Nice to see you too!

We heard some music,

so I just wanted to check.

-This is Cecilie.

-Hi, Eirik.

They got a cabin right over there.

A small cabin, not like this.

It's nice.

We're having a barbeque later,

down by the boathouse. You guys want to join us?

-A barbeque?

-Yeah sure!

We're just going to buy

some beer and then we're ready.

-Could we come to the store with you?

-Yeah sure, we're leaving in five minutes.

-Weren't we supposed to...

-No no, that's great.

All right, we'll pick you up.

Later!

I don't think this is a good idea.

Why not?

We need rope anyway, don't we?

I'm talking about the party.

I'm not comfortable

around people right

now.

Cecilie, now you're just freaking out.

You've got to meet Eirik's half brother.

He's really mysterious.

-He is, really.

-Mysterious?

He's a real freak.

He's handsome.

I don't know. I'm just not

in the mood for a party right now.

I just wanted to tell you..

I am..

Well, if you are being sad, I just wanted...

-...to tell you...-

The reason is...

I've got a reason.

Don't think I don't have a reason.

If I thought you were even interested,

I would have told you. But I don't know.

Veronica?

Veronica, if you want to come along,

we're leaving.

I'm coming!

How much beer are we going to get?

Beer?

Yeah, how much money you got?

How much did you get to buy candies for?

Would you take the camera?

I can't find a good angle from back here.

I don't know if everyone

are too excited being taped.

What are you guys filming?

We're doing a project,

filming everything we do this weekend.

So you're your own reality stars, huh?

Bring it to the party!

-Okay...

-Have you caught anything exciting yet?

Not really, so we're kind of hoping

for a car chase or something.

Is this car stolen Eirik?

-No, Benjamin bought it with drug money.

-Eirik, we don't use the term drug money.

-Then what's it called?

-Pharmacia pesetas!

It's right over there!

-What's his deal really?

-Jonas? I don't know, he's so mysterious.

Go and have a look.

-Sh*t, she's there!

-What's the hold up?

-I'm not going in, if she's there.

-What's up?

We kind of got a thing

with the woman working here.

Like what?

She's pregnant, and we told

her that her p*ssy will be torn apart.

You told her!

Maybe you guys should go without us..

-Put this on!

-You want me to wear this?

-So she won't recognize us!

-That could be fun!

-Yeah, dress up!

-I've got a hat in the car.

-She'll recognize us if..

-No, nobody's going to recognize anybody!

-What about the camera?

-Oh, okay, I'll take the camera.

-There, it's on.

-Oh, like that.

-Sausages?

-I don't eat meat, for your information.

You don't eat meat?

Have you ever been to a meat farm?

Animals are treated like sh*t.

-We can't have a barbeque without meat!

-When were you at a meat farm?

-Okay, I've seen it on TV.

-So what are you barbequing?

Paprika is good. Mushrooms.

-Yes, and feta. Mushrooms with feta.

-Yeah, and onion.

What the deal with Jonas?

Well, he's been at

the psychiatric hospital for a while...

What did she say, paprika,

mushroom, onion...

-I think I saw someone over there.

-Are you afraid?

-It is a little embarrassing.

-What?

What you said to her.

F*** I really got the munchies!

She is pretty crazy.

Oh yeah, rope.

Put that rope back!

Get out of here! Give me the rope!

You're a strange case, aren't you?

I got the rope though.

This?

It's not long enough!

-God, why did you have to steal it?

-It was pretty fun, wasn't it?

Cecilie!

We'll figure it out.

But your solutions

never match the problems!

What?

Cecilie, you need to

stay positive, look ahead.

Did you look at the tape?

Look at me, I'm dancing for you.

You see how I'm not gone?

I exist through memories I can't even

remember. I'm three years, I'm two.

Why do you always have

to be so f***ing uptight?

It's really hard, growing up

as a rich kid isn't it? Horrible.

What? You have no idea

what you're are talking about!

-Oh no? Then tell me.

-They never gave me anything.

Oh, so you never got your own car, huh?

You don't have a big

summer house you can use whenever?

-You never got anything?

-Do you think any of that really matters?

Then what does? Tell me.

-We told her we'd never met you before.

-She totally snapped.

-But we brought your stuff

-We need a rope!

We got plenty in the boathouse,

you could just grab some of that.

-You do?

-Sure.

What the f*** was that?

Keep your eyes on the road man!

I did, but ... it was just there

all of a sudden. I didn't see it..

F***!

-Sh*t, you scared me man.

-You okay?

F***ing degos-driving, man.

Nice bonfire, Eirik

We got a lot of old stuff to burn.

It'll be a nice big bonfire.

-We're gonna light up the dark.

-You really are twisted Eirik.

What?

Give him a lighter and he thinks

he's God Almighty!

-Do you believe in God Cecilie?

-God? No.

-Take this.

-Thanks.

I told you.

Do you believe in God, Jonas?

Isn't the question rather

if God believes in me?

-What kind of lame answer is that?

-No I think he's right.

If God really exists, he should

take care of Jonas, not the other way around.

Oh, so now you guys agree on everything?

-What about a life after death, Cecilie?

-How about a life before death?

Everything's being blown away!

Could we please do this inside?

-We can't make food when it's this windy!

-What about the bonfire?

We could prep the food inside,

and then grill it here.

Jonas is cold!

-Relax, we'll go inside!

-I am relaxed.

Come on guys!

-I didn't know you were so muscular Eirik?

-Well, there are a lot you don't know.

Okay, picture meeting an animal

in the wild:
Let's say a bear -

-or a moose or a bunny or whatever.

-Or a deer.

Yeah, or a deer.

If you stare into its eyes,

-you'll have no idea whether

it's going to escape or attack.

-A bunny?

-Okay, maybe not a bunny.
