- Malla, darling...

Is it dangerous?.

And why can`t Thora be with Jon?.

Is that also dangerous?.

It`s better for people

to be with their own kind.

So why can`t Lalli be with you?.

Is it because he is always

kind and you are...

And I am what?.

Yes, thank you.

Did they have my size?.

- Yes, they found a pair of shoes.

- Brilliant!

They`ll be on the ferry...

and should arrive

just in time for the ceremony.

Great, I love you!

Thanks for the help.

- lsn`t that Sjonni?.

- It looks like him.

Let`s go to the church.

I`m Kristin,

the mother of the groom.

Hi, l`m Sisi.

Oh, my God.

- Where is he?.

- He`ll be here.

What is she doing on that boat?.

Where is she going?.

Oh, my God.

We have to get some help.

Hurry!

All right, darling?.

The guests are here and

the ceremony is about to start.

Everyone is waiting for you.

Pull yourself together.

No...

What`s happening?.

Damn!

You have to run!

Don`t go! Hey!

Ferry! Don`t go!

This has to be a joke.

- She`s so young.

- I know.

Do something, Daddy.

I can`t do this to you.

Let`s step outside.

What the hell are you doing?.

- I can`t marry you.

- What?.

Get right back in there.

Can`t this wait

until after the wedding?.

Shut up!

I have no right

to ruin your life too.

Since we met

you`ve aged ten years.

You don`t laugh anymore.

Dear guests, just sit still.

The happy couple

has something to discuss.

We are in no hurry.

Nobody is going anywhere.

There isn`t another ferry

until tomorrow.

- l`ve infected you.

- With what?.

With boredom, self pity,

anxiety, obsession...

I`m burnt out, a wreck!

Stop it!

A complete burnout!

Maybe we could get some music.

My conscience is bad enough

without ruining your life too.

He`s got the gray hair blues,

He`s got the gray hair blues

- Don`t step on--

- Sorry.

I killed Anna.

I thought that by marrying you...

I could justify what I did to her.

That I did it in the name of love.

For a reason.

- But l`m just not a good man.

- Yes you are.

What`s going on?.

Everyone is waiting.

- He wants to cancel the wedding.

- What?.

You can`t do this to us.

Not now.

Do I have to drag you to the altar?.

I`ve said all there is to say.

There won`t be any marriage.

Mom, do something!

You can`t treat my girl this way.

People are here for a wedding.

If it`s because of the money--

What money?.

It`s not about money,

it`s a question of conscience.

What money are you talking about?.

The money I gave him

so he could pay you.

- What money did you give him?.

- Mom!

What is going on?.

He`s not doing it. What money?.

That`s out of the question.

The church is reserved for a wedding

and by God there will be

a wedding in this church today.

Maybe he`s hyper-anxious.

He got this as a child.

Answer me!

It`s none of your

bloody business, woman!

That`s it, this man is

a no-good, irresponsible bastard.

Now you`ve gone too far.

You don`t say this to a man

who`s about not to get married.

Don`t touch me,

you filthy bastard.

Let me go.

Never.

If it`s the last thing I do, l`m going

to get you back on your feet.

Have you settled this?.

Bring the bloody priest!

We`re doing this here!

I ask you bridegroom,

do you take Thora...

to be your lawful,

wedded wife?.

Yes.

- I ask you bride, do you take--

- Yes!

But he shoots himself

at the end of the play.

Does it mean that the love affair

he had wasn`t justifiable?.

Of course love in itself

is always justifiable.

But it does not justify

our wrongdoings.

So what`s the author`s point then?.

That life offers no simple answers -

just complex questions.

The purpose of life isn`t death,

even if it`s the end result.

Just as love or happiness isn`t

the purpose of life, as such.

Rather the quest.

The quest for love, the quest for happiness.

Hi, darling.

Sorry l`m late. I got held up.

Have you eaten already?.

Are you coming along tonight?.

Do you feel like going?.

I think you should go.

I`m going to stay in and write.

Constant love and happiness

is simply Utopia.

It`s much rather something

to be constantly pursued.

If you are completely happy

for more than ten minutes...

you must be an idiot.
