in my entire life.

So your father never told you

anything about your grandfather?

No.

Can you ask him?

He died last year.

I never met my real father.

Left before I was born.

My father left when I was 14.

When he died last year, alone,

I was going through his things,

and I found this letter

he never sent.

He wrote it when he was eight.

What does it say?

I don't know.

You tell me.

- You haven't read it yet?

- No.

It's very nice.

Um, it says that

he's missing Copenhagen,

and that it will

always be his home.

And that when he gets a family,

he wants them to see

what made him smile.

I know this.

It's Tivoli.

- Mark it on the map.

- Why?

Just do it.

All right.

Where's Tivoli on the map?

It's where it says "Tivoli."

The little mermaid...

What are you doing?

Have to see what made him smile.

Let's go.

Tivoli first.

Hey, Jer, it's me.

F*** you.

I didn't mean that.

Look, if you get this,

can you call me at, um...

45-87...

89-39.

All right, f*** you.

I forgive you.

Seriously, call me, man.

All right.

Okay, we have to go over here.

Castle's over here.

Okay, go over there

and see what he saw.

What do you see?

A bunch of annoying kids.

Okay, I'm going to

take the picture now.

You one of those people?

Do you mean this?

It's cool.

Okay, smile like your father.

Is this what we're

gonna do all day?

You don't like Tivoli?

It's boring. It's for kids.

I can show you Sweden

if you want.

That's not boring.

Sh*t. I need to get off this

right now.

God. God.

- Look, that's Sweden.

- What?

I told you I would show you

Sweden. That's Sweden.

Sweden is on the other side

of the water.

I don't wanna open my eyes.

You can't have your eyes closed.

Open them.

I hate you.

F***. F***.

What's happening?

F***.

F***. Okay.

- It's beautiful, right?

- Sure.

- That bridge goes to Sweden.

- What's happening?

What was that?

Has it stopped?

Jesus! F*** yeah!

God!

No, no, no.

Make it stop!

Whoo! God.

That was fun, right?

Mange tak.

What else?

How do you say,

"What's your name?"

Yeah, perfect.

Something's written here. Look.

It's very faded though.

I think this is where

your father was born.

- What?

- It's on Vaernademsvej.

- Let me see.

- I know where it is.

Hey, we can go and check if your

grandfather still lives there.

Chances of that are zero.

Yeah, but we can check.

Maybe he does.

Then you can give him

the letter.

Let's... Let's go.

Sit down.

What are you doing?

Wh-Where are you going?

- Let's try this.

- What?

Go to the door.

You know...

this would be a lot more fun if

you were the other way around.

Got it.

Look.

What are you...

Are you insane?
