Orange Girl Page #3

Synopsis: THE ORANGE GIRL is about two young men's different paths to finding love. Jan Olav is struck as if by lightning the first time he sees the Orange Girl, and is sure he has found the love of his life. His infatuation is like nothing else: the sky turns round and round, the earth disappears beneath his feet. Nothing else matters. Georg has love served on a silver platter under a magic Easter sky in the Norwegian mountains, but he has difficulties understanding his own feelings, grasping what is happening to him. There are 20 years between these two love stories. Georg hears the story of his father Jan Olav's quest for the Orange Girl through a letter he receives on his 16th birthday. The letter helps him realize that he cannot let love slip through his fingers. Jan Olav's and Georg's stories are woven together through the letter. Both stories tell tales of chance encounters that change their lives. THE ORANGE GIRL is a love story that raises important questions about our human existence.

Not today either!

Seville?

Do you know anyone in Seville?

"Can you wait a little longer?"

-What is it?

-Give me that!

We're room-mates.

What's yours is mine!

-It's from her!

-The Orange Girl?

-I have to go there.

-What are you talking about?

You can't go now.

Your finals are in four days!

Finals in four days!

What's the best way

to find someone?

Sit in one place

and hope she'll show up,

or move around

from place to place?

If two people

are meant for each other,

wouldn't they eventually

find each other anyway?

What do you think, Georg?

Is everything that happens

part of a larger plan?

Or simply a succession

of random occurrences?

Hi.

Hi.

I've been looking for you.

I asked you to wait.

All fairy tales have rules.

Which rules applied

to this fairy tale?

-What were those oranges for?

-What did you think?

I thought maybe

you had a vitamin deficiency.

I was going to paint them.

Why not just buy one,

and paint it several times?

No two oranges are alike.

That's why you are here now.

Did you come all the way here

just to meet some Woman?

Some random woman?

Exactly.

How did that guy at the caf

know who I was?

He has seen

one of my paintings, I think.

A painting you painted here?

Of me?

Where has he seen it?

Jan Olav.

How do you know my name?

And where I live?

Do you really not recognize me?

No.

Help me. Give me a hint.

How many squirrels have you known?

I'm a squirrel.

Is it you?

Of course!

We were inseparable.

Why didn't you just tell me?

I wanted you to rediscover me.

The way I am now. Today.

Do you believe in everlasting life?

In life after death?

No. We are a product of cosmic dust.

It's a miracle we exist at all.

-We are only here this once.

-But that time is now.

-I want to be here forever.

-Nothing is forever.

I believe that the moment

is the only eternity there is.

-Where do you live?

-At a hostel for young girls.

-Catholic. It's lovely.

-Wow. A convent?

A fortress.

No boys can get in there.

That sounds great.

No, I'm kidding.

-It's impossible.

-Do we have to sleep?

-I have to leave tomorrow.

-What? Why?

-Physiology finals in two days.

-And you're here?

What did you say about eternity?

That the moment is now?

Did you see that?

The shooting star?

That means we can make a wish.

It can also mean

that someone's going to die.

Imagine how brief

a human life is, Georg.

It takes billions of years

to create a man.

But only a matter

of seconds to die.

I LOVE YOU:

I love you.

Mom.

Stella. The sky is clearing.

Do you want to come out?

-Look!

-It's freezing out here.

-Think we'll see that comet?

-With a little bit of luck.

Are you the lucky type?
