Marrowbone
(0.00 / 0 votes)We have come very far,
enduring many hardships.
But at last, we found a
place where we can be safe.
Together.
At the other end of the ocean.
It's not how I remember it.
Mum had put all her hopes
on the house where
she had grown up.
It had been waiting for us,
frozen in time for
over thirty years.
Is someone there?
Just a coat stand
in the mirror, Sam.
Don't be afraid.
It's not a step to take lightly.
We're no longer Fairbairns.
From now on, our last name
will be "Marrowbone".
Just like this house,
which will be our new home.
Once you cross that line,
there'll be no memories.
Will he ever find us, Mummy?
Who?
You see, I've crossed the line.
I must've forgotten already.
No one will bother us again.
Ever.
We wanted to believe
that we would be safe.
That we too had
a chance of happiness.
That Mum's illness had disappeared
with the rest of our problems.
The darkness we'd left
behind seem to vanish
in the light of
those summer days.
Nobody knew us.
We could be free
for the first time.
And we were about to
make a new friend
that would change
our lives forever.
Oh, look at that, Sam!
This must be the place they call
"The Red Witch Rock".
It's a skull.
Let's go back, Billy.
I don't like it.
Who goes there?
How dare you invade
my dwellings.
I'm Sam Marrowbone.
These are my two brothers,
Billy and Jack.
And this is my sister Jane.
You have entered the
Red Witch lands.
See that passage to your right?
You must cross it.
If you mean well,
you'd be free to go.
But if you hide evil
within your heart,
and trap you forever.
Do you dare cross it?
Jack, no.
-Come on!
-Come on, Sammy!
Be brave.
we shouldn't be here.
Your soul must have been good.
It's very slippy here.
Hello, little one.
Come closer.
My name is Allie.
Are you a prisoner
of the Red Witch?
Yes.
She punished me for
breaking into her garden.
Leaving me trapped until someone
dared cross the
passageway and rescue me.
Now, is that someone you?
They aren't much now, but
they'll grow big and strong
with our friendship.
They're magic.
So now that you're free,
where would you like to go?
At the end of that
unforgettable day,
Allie was already one of us.
Stop. Wait, okay, move forward.
Why?
It's too beautiful. Can I...?
Get close together, come on.
You guys ready?
One, two...
Great.
Perfect.
We began again.
We forgot the past.
And we started a new life.
For a while, we all
bought in to that illusion.
But the journey to America had
taken what little strength
Mum had left in her.
Little did we know,
that would be our
last summer together.
Bury me in the garden.
I showed you where.
You just have to turn 21.
and no law will
take them from you.
Swear to me.
You'll stay together.
Always stay together.
I swear.
Have a safe place ready.
In case he finds you.
In the cupboard.
On the left.
You lied.
You lied in court.
You kept his money
all this time.
"My dearest Jack,
"I'm so sorry I won't be there
for you as you grow up.
"I no longer have the strength.
"Jane will be Sam's mother,
as it was meant to be.
"Tell Billy to not let his anger
"take his beautiful heart.
"And you, my Jack,
when the time comes,
"do not forget to open
your heart to love.
"You must keep them safe.
"Always.
Your loving mother,
Rose Marrowbone".
Nothing,
no one,
ever...
will separate us.
We are one.
Repeat after me.
Nothing.
Nothing.
No one.
-No one.
-No one.
