and let it hang, like an octopus,

or veins, new life.

Or a new planet...

Is that really necessary?.

What?.

Never mind.

- Evening, Jon.

- Hi.

- Is Anna not coming?.

- No, she wasn`t feeling well.

- She`s out of this world.

- Who?. What do you mean?.

- Hildur, the girl on the saw.

- Right.

So you`ve stopped teaching?.

I took a leave.

Because of your wife?.

Yes...

You could say that.

Why did you move to Flatey?.

My wife is from here.

We came to try something new.

A wonderful, lcelandic folksong...

You should be an opera singer!

I studied in Vienna.

- Really, then why are you here?.

- To sing for you, my friend!

Here comes Dad`s tourist show.

Yes?.

I`m sorry for...

What?.

Sorry I asked

about your wife back there.

That`s all right.

I just feel like I know you...

from school.

- Jon.

- Yes

Why don`t you relax a little.

You`re off duty.

- Want one?.

- Why not?. Thanks.

- The sunset is beautiful.

- Yes.

I don`t know what happened,

if anything at all.

I was living a nightmare.

Same students year after year.

Same books, same authors.

Same questions, same answers,

and, of course, the same jokes.

I was teaching people

to teach other people -

after becoming the teachers

they never wanted to be.

Like yourself?.

Yeah, like myself.

Bummer.

You`ve worked your ass off

for years with no real results...

Exhausted, but nothing to show for it.

I thought I couldn`t love anyone

the way I love you.

I thought I could only love myself

the way I love you.

Where did you dig this up?.

Did you write it to your wife?.

I can`t remember.

Prick! Don`t you remember

whom you loved like yourself?.

- Stop it.

- l`m freezing!

You`ll wake up everyone.

Thora asked me--

I know Malla`s window.

What?.

Come down. We need your help.

You`re just making fun of me.

I`m off to bed.

You know me better than that!

Why isn`t he

wearing any clothes?.

He fell in the sea.

Get him some clothes

before he freezes to death.

Out of the way.

What the hell is going on!

I told you to stay away from Malla!

And Jon!

Is that the mother-in-law?.

You should be at home

thinking of a way to pay us back

instead of getting drunk

the night before your own wedding...

If there`s going to be

a wedding at all!

Maybe you`re being

a little rough on him, dear.

Are you going to make

your daughter homeless?.

What do you mean?.

He`ll never pay us

once they are married.

Are you getting a lawyer

to go after your daughter?.

And have him auction their house?.

We don`t have to go that far.

How could you lend money

to a man we hardly know?.

Money?. We simply leased

land we never use.

Let`s be good, darling.

Now come here and cuddle
