Engelen des doods Page #3

As a child I often thought

that he was the child of the family.

I think she believed it would pass,

that he would change.

Finally she wasn't

afraid of him anymore.

Mummy, who never gives up on anyone.

Except herself.

- I can take you home if you like.

- There's no need.

Hey, sweetie!

Give her rice porridge.

That's her favorite.

When will you be back?

- Fueled and ready.

- Thanks.

We'll be home around 2 or 3.

- Bye.

- Have fun!

- What can you do?

- Oral only, with condom.

- How much?

- 500.

Sonja...

Sonja!

I can't take care of her anymore.

Don't say things like that.

- You are her mother.

- I'm addicted to heroin.

I think she'll be better off

with someone else.

Sonja is afraid.

She's anxious all the time.

She knows I'm not there for her.

I can help you with her.

You just have to give up drugs.

I can't do it, mum.

So you're giving up your child

in order to do drugs?

I don't want her

to grow up being afraid.

If there was one thing

I could change...

It would be the day we went

to the red light district.

I don't know where it started.

Where the boundaries were erased.

Or if they were ever there.

- I'll just suck someone and we'll...

- Listen to yourself!

I only know that

it was my suggestion.

And that once I had said it,

that I can do that,

Henrik was lost from me.

Are you here?

You're crying.

I always cry when I'm on drugs.

Go away!

Get the hell away from me!

I'm not fit to be a mother.

I'm addicted to heroin.

I want someone else

to take care of her.

- Are you Lea Larsen?

- Yes.

We're from Child Welfare.

We'll take over your child now,

and set up a meeting for you.

You can't just take Sonja now.

Henrik is at work.

We have to find

a good way to do this.

- Hello. We're from Child Protection.

- What's going on?

- We can't do this. We need help.

- Have you lost your mind?

You know we'll never see her again.

Yes, Child Protection can help us.

Mummy will come and get you soon.

She's going away for a little while.

Then I'll come and get you.

Yes, look at that.

I'll never forgive you for this.

She needs the light on at nights.

Rice porridge before bedtime.

Her teddy is in the pram.

She must have it when she sleeps.

She likes to be rocked to sleep.

She doesn't like loud noises.

She's never been yelled at.

You're not allowed to do that.

You just don't give up your child!

Yes, sometimes you do.

I can't fly anymore.

Taking heroin is as loud

as a human being can scream:

Help!

I need you to see me.

I no longer know what love is.

As a child, I knew.

And for a long time

I trusted it would return.

That the nature of love is such

that when you really need it,
