Ego Page #2

Synopsis: For 25-year-old Sebastian it is all about surface and appearance. Life is full of party, money and one-night stands. He has never challenged himself, whether it be his dream of a music career or maybe, especially true love. When everything is at its best in his superficial life he has an accident that leads to him becoming blind. A whole world closes, or rather opens up. When he sees everything in black, he meets Mia, a personal assistant. A girl he normally would not pay any attention to. She becomes the first to successfully open his eyes to what is important in life. But when Sebastian discovers that Mia is not who he expected superficiality gets an entirely different meaning. EGO is a romantic comedy drama about vanity, love, sex, and that things are not always as they seems.

Hello?

Hello?

Can someone help me?

Hello!? Can someone help me?!

Hello!? Hello!?

Can you see the light?

No.

- Now?

- No.

- Now?

- No.

- And now?

- No.

- Does your head hurt?

- Yes, back here.

- The back of your head?

- Yeah... or sort of everywhere.

Let me take a look at the other eye.

Do you see the light now?

No! I don't see any f***ing light!

What the hell is wrong?!

Stop crying, Mom! What's wrong?!

Don't touch me!

Your son had an aneurysm.

The fall caused it to burst, and the

bleeding damaged the visual cortex.

It was a time bomb,

just waiting to go off.

But he will be able

to see again, right?

- He will get his sight back?

- I'm sorry.

It's highly unlikely

that it will return naturally.

The good news is that

Sebastian is being treated,

so he's in no danger.

- So what do we do now?

- We wait.

- Wait? For what?

- To see if his condition changes.

And seek new treatments. There's

progress all the time in this field.

We'll keep searching.

We can't just do nothing.

I refuse to accept this!

You heard the doctor,

his condition may change.

It's pretty cozy in here.

For a while.

- Have you heard from Hammarsten?

- No, that's over.

What? Why?

I don't know. I got a letter

"on behalf of Jens Hammarsten. "

- He didn't even call me himself.

- What a f***ing fake.

But you're a singer.

You don't need to see to be a star.

Look at Ray Charles,

or Stevie Wonder, or...

- Youssou N'dour.

- What do you mean, Youssou N'dour?

The guy who sings

"Seven Seconds Away. "

- He's not blind.

- He's not?

We're going out tonight.

Want to come?

Oh come on!

You going to drag me around

like a seeing-eye dog?

I'm stuck here!

My parents got me an assistant

to help me with my "daily life. "

- What daily life? I have no life.

- Of course you do!

Come on, Sebbe! Come out with us

tonight. I'll look after you.

- Cheers!

- Cheers!

Cheers!

The best way to get over a girl

is to "get over" another girl.

- Did you get that Sebbe?

- Why don't you sing something?

- What?

- Cheers!

Erik!

Erik! Erik!

Sorry.

Sorry, sorry!

Erik! Erik!

Erik! Erik!

- F***ing drunk. Get out of here!

- You OK?

- He's not drunk, he's blind!

- Sure he is...

What are you laughing at?

You think this is funny?

Get me a cab. Get me a cab!

- At Gmail?

... dot com, yes.

- What's your password?

- donkeyballs84.

No, there's nothing interesting here.

- Invitations to night clubs...

- Delete.

And you've got mail from Oskar

af Strm-de Luca and Pelle Borg.

- They wonder why you never call.

- Delete those too.

Straight ahead, straight...

You know the way.

You're a meter from the couch.

Watch out for the rug.
