Who are you to tell us how

to live our lives, alien boy?

Don't yell to the kid!

- Just like your old man.

What the hell?

- Don't yell to the kid.

Shut up, you scoundrel.

- I don't like when you call me that.

A hell of an idea.

To invite the old man.

Don't swear.

- Why did you force me to come here?

Force! I didn't force you.

You were heading here anyway.

No way! I was going to the cabin.

This doesn't make any sense.

All your fault!

- My fault? That things go wrong?

Well, whose fault is it then?

You're off again?

Nice that you showed up.

F***ed up my wedding!

Inside, all of you! Let's party!

Stop f***ing following me.

Go away.

What?

I should've never gone there.

- It was good.

Nothing good about that.

Some things are best

to be left alone.

But he's your son.

Now I have no one left.

I could take him this letter.

- Now, shut up.

Stop here. This is my destination.

What's going on?

Nothing's going on.

You can go home now.

It's worth at least a hundred.

But now you must go. -What?

You were in a rush to Nairobi,

weren't you? Just go.

Now I'm ready.

- What are you doing?

Shh. Shh.

Please don't disturb.

Haven't taken my medication for days.

It should kick in soon.

Oh sh*t.

I asked you to leave.

Are you trying to kill yourself?

- No.

What are these then?

- Just speeding up the inevitable.

Are you popping these?

Out-of-date-meds?

You'll get the shits, that's all.

Give them to me.

Why should you care?

Take the watch and take a hike!

All the same to me.

Take the bloody watch.

- No, I won't.

Take it!

Do you know what?

You're a loser.

You're not even a racist.

Just a lonesome chickenshit.

That makes two of us. You don't

even have the guts to call your clad.

What are you saying? -You're dumping

your mother, just like that.

She's taken you this far. -You don't

know anything! I have no one in here.

Do you have someone in Africa?

Have you ever even been there?

- Soon I have!

Call your dad then!

Don't you have the guts?

- I do!

Believe me.

- You don't have the guts.

Look at this.

I'm sorry.

- Don't.

You don't know anything.

You're not up to it.

I don't care if you drop dead.

Stop kidding around. Get up!

Hey! Veikko! Can you hear me?

Veikko, you can't die now.

Not after we just argued.

Valkeakoski Hospital

Help me out! Someone!

Hey! Hey!

Enquiries.

Can I get the number

of Mika Koskinen?

I need more information.

Well, he's gay.

- I see.

That doesn't help much, does it?

- No.

I'll have all the numbers.

We have 131 listed with that name.

- All of them.

As a text message?

- Yes please.

Is this the son of Veikko Koskinen?

Is this the son of Veikko Koskinen?

Is this the son of Veikko Koskinen?

Hi...

Hi. Is this the son

of Veikko Koskinen?

Mika.- Is this the son

of Veikko Koskinen?

Who's calling?

It's Kamal. We met at the wedding.

Sorry. I'm looking for... Nothing.

Where is he?

His condition doesn't allow

any surgery. Not even transport.

I'm sorry I can't be more precise.

But it's only a question of days.

I'm really sorry.

We could see him now.

Hell of a wedding night.

Come with me.

When I'm on my feet,

I'll make everything up to you.

Of course.

Take me to the cabin.

What?

He wants to the cabin.

The final. We have to

watch it at the cabin.

He said...

- I heard.

I can't take you anywhere.

This is where they'll treat you.

You'll get over this.

We'll do it together.

Do you remember Mommy's principles?

Three things.

Don't hit the man on his knees.

Stand up for the underdog.

Don't...

- Don't lie.

YES.

YES.

Give me a break.

Why not?

In real world

you don't do things like that.

Check out what I found.

Did you notice

he passed away a while ago?

He wanted you to have this.

Kamal!

You can't do things like that! Where

have you been? Abdi said Nairobi.

You just went. Left me alone.

I wasn't thinking.

I don't understand that.

Let's all be silent then.

Where have you been?

- Shh.

Don't say a word.

No one says a word.

Sorry, Mom.

Noora.

Hello?

Hi. It's Kamal.

Hi.

- Hi.

Are you in Nairobi?

- No, I'm not.
