My name's Tger.

Those are Topper and Red.

If you want to survive here,

then you become a ghost.

If you're a ghost, no one

pays any attention to you.

Do as you're told, you

get your eternity note.

- My eternity note?

- When they let you out forever.

At latest when you turn 15. Until

then it is best to be invisible.

Do you have anything for us?

You pay for you and the cripple.

Five cigarettes and one jam sandwich.

- I'm not crip...

- Be quiet when adults are talking.

You don't have to give me anything.

If you are an astronaut, you

can just leave in the rocket.

- Don't, dammit!

- Come on! All the way up to the rocket!

All the way up!

The cripple also has fear of heights!

Astronauts can't have fear of heights!

Come on!

Of course, the brothers

ran off the first day.

The shock of the place

sinks deep into the body.

And one misses everything from

where they came.

You can. Run.

Come here.

The most important thing

one learns when one runs away.

Nobody wants to

help a Gudbjerg boy.

It was my idea. My little brother

has nothing to do with it.

- We just wanna go home.

- This is your home now.

Because no other can

take care of you.

Of course it's difficult to understand.

It's not nice to be discarded.

Here at Gudbjerg you

become part of a community.

I don't give a sh*t.

Just get finished.

No, no.

Understanding will be shown in a

completely different way in this case.

You haven't taught them

how to behave!

Field work for all throughout the night.

Unless someone can come

up with something else.

Gudbjergs spank.

Gudbjergs spank. Gudbjergs spank.

Gudbjergs spank! Gudbjergs spank!

Here is a small gas burner you

can make tea on.

- What is happening?

- It's just the new boys.

The Principal will fix it.

Stop!

Here at Gudbjerg one

becomes part of a community.

If you don't respect the

community, then it will punish you.

Just as in the real world.

Yes, get going.

There's also a small

refrigerator you can use.

Gudbjergs spank!

Gudbjergs spank! Gudbjergs spank!

If you will give the little one

iodine and adhesive plaster,

I will look for some sleepwear.

It was also wrong to run away.

One has to do what they are told.

One must behave properly and

one shall not lie and steal.

Listen to what is being said.

It's always appreciated

and good things come in return.

Thank you for today, good

night and sleep well!

Time goes fast. We scratch a

line for every day we're here.

Then we can keep an eye on

how much time we have left.

We must do as Tger says.

Try to be ghosts.

- So they don't notice us.

- I won't be a ghost.

I want to be an astronaut.

Astronauts never know

what they will face.

They must handle everything.

Shooting stars or earthquakes.

Not earthquakes. They're mostly

afraid of meeting space monsters

or toxic gases,

or holes in the suit.

We pretend that we are the ghosts.

And keep quiet about

all that astronaut stuff.

Now it's lunch!

The next few weeks the brothers

tried to be ghosts.

But it's not as

easy as it sounds.

You don't sleep in class.

It does not get easier having a club

foot and wanting to be an astronaut.

I'll have to get you

on to another job.

You get cracks in your foot.

That's why it hurts.

That you can forget about.

If one whines, it only becomes worse.

Here.

It was in the garbage, when I

was looking for ciggies.

There's nothing wrong with it.

Eat.

Here.

Here.

- What are you doing?

- Astronauts share.

They may need each other's

forces when they come up there.

- How do you know they get up there?

- They do.

They started by sending a dog off.

And then three monkeys.

Now they will soon dare

to send a man up there.

- What about the dog and the apes?

- Yes, they died.

But they died out in space.

Where you could see the

moon and all the stars.

It has meant a lot for them.

Just wait.

There comes a day when we

all can travel out to space.

- Like to take to the beach.

- I've never been to the beach.

Teacher Aksel is on duty!

Thank you for today, good

night and sleep well!

Likewise, boys.

Come on.

- What shall they?

- It doesn't matter.

- Just go to sleep.

- I don't understand

Up! Ten minutes to breakfast.

Come on!

Up. Clothes on.

Yes, you just get up.

Your mother does not live here.

Let it go a bit quick.

Come on.

- We have a new pee boy.

- Ugh, hell!

- You little bastard!

- How disgusting.

Practice! Practice! Practice!

Hold it up higher. Higher up!

- Little bastard!

- How disgusting!

Come on. Sit down.

Will you sit down!

You can arm yourself with patience.

You have to stand here until it's dry.

In place! Place.

Good morning. When the boys are

in the dining room, it is to eat.

I'm sorry but there is a

boy without clothes on.

He must learn something.

The boys are good with cleanliness.

But we must set an example until

the doctor gets a grip on it.

- Go ahead to eat.

- The doctor?

Next time you have questions

about the routines

let's take it bilaterally, so

the boys don't get confused.

Problems with the urination is

not unusual for boys of your age.

Can you say "ah"?

Jump on one leg.

Jump on the other leg.

Evidently normal growth

except for a clubfoot.

Does it hurt?

However, fully functional.

We begin with Truxal and

amphetamines during the day.

Then you are free of the problem.

Next!

Soon one could see that Elmer

had been to the doctor.

The price went up to seven

ciggies and two jam sandwiches

because Elmer now also had to

write pee boy on his business card.

In the evening he was put in the Blue

Tower along with the other pee boys.

He was so sedated by Truxal,

that they in the morning had to give him

amphetamine so he could wake up.

It didn't work, although

they increased his dose.

Sit down at your

place, and be quiet!

Neither though Psycho-Toft told

him how much he cost the state.

Linens are to be washed, be cleaned,

clothes put in place.

Money that could have

made your life comfortable.

Every day Elmer stood in the

yard with his bed sheet.

Erik hoovered Gudbjerg

for ciggies

to get the older ones to

leave Elmer in peace.

Don't.

Astronauts don't piss in their suit.

- No, but they get a rubber hose on.

- Shut up with that sh*t.

You will never be an astronaut.

You don't know a damn thing about it.

Why can't you just shut up

and pull yourself together?

- Here.

- Thanks.

They get a rubber hose on, too.

It's sucked into space by itself.

That's also correct.

Sorry.

- F...

- What's this letter?

- It is a .

- F...

- Yes?

- F... Frdig.

No, do not guess.

Do not guess. You shall spell.

F--l say "fl",

L-e-s say "les".

Fl...

Wake up. One don't sleep in class.

I can't keep saying that. One

must learn to read and write.

It's of most importantance, if you

want something out of your abilities.

Have you written the words?

May I see what you have written?

You haven't written anything.

- What's that?

- Nothing.

It's only something
