Wolf Summer (2003) Movie Script

1
Happy...
Happy birthday to you...
Kim...
Kim, it's 7 a.m.
How about a coffee break?
I don't drink coffee.
You go ahead.
I don't need the rope.
Hi, Kim!
Aren't you glad you had that rope?
- You're new. Are you a member?
- Mats doesn't climb.
I'm getting that coffee now.
- Sorry I made you fall.
- I didn't fall. I let go.
Whatever.
- I thought you took yellow pills.
- These are stronger.
Now I'm allergic to fur, too.
We're going to Stavern today.
The whole family.
- These pictures are of your dad.
- He started this club.
Is this him, too?
He soloed the East Wall at age 12.
No one has done it since.
- Are many going?
- Where?
Climbing camp. I'll be living in
a cabin for a week. I can't wait!
Why did you come here, anyway?
Happy birthday.
Mom!
EVEREST CENTER
Get a moped!
I can't.
I'm not old enough.
Send them out.
Don't be too rough.
Graze to your hearts content!
Guri's leg still hurts.
- She'd make a good mutton stew.
- Don't say things like that!
- Do all your sheep have names?
- Of course. Don't yours?
I'm so sorry, mom!
Mom?
Hi, honey!
Sorry about what?
Oh yes,
You always forget your birthday.
- I remembered Christmas.
- But forgot your Christmas present.
I didn't want a cell phone.
- Have you been climbing again?
- I climb every morning.
Why can't you do something normal,
like rhythmic gymnastics?
- Right, mom. Tomorrow.
- You look like a boy in those clothes.
Didn't you like the cake?
- Sour cream?
- No. Crme fraiche.
The shrimp are a nice touch.
- Do you know where you're going?
- Yes. Riga. Knut says it's fantastic.
- Knut?
- Yes. Him.
- I thought his name was Bjrn.
- No. Knut.
- The one before that was Bjrn.
- No. Vegard.
Let me check the photos.
You're right - Vegard. Before him
was Bjrn. Or was that Are?
- Why do you save those?
- I don't know.
- Is dad in that suitcase too?
- No.
Why are you mad at him?
- Because he left me.
- He died.
He fell off some stupid mountain
and left me alone with you.
- Are you sure it's OK that I leave?
- No problem.
- You'll have to spend a night alone.
- I've done it before.
Am I a bad mother?
The worst.
That must be Knut.
I have to finish packing!
The plane leaves in an hour.
Your gift is over there.
- I already have a cell phone.
- This one's yellow. Harder to lose.
Hi!
- Have a nice summer.
- Wait!
I almost forgot.
Never leave without saying goodbye.
I'm a mom.
I'm allowed to get sentimental.
- We have to...
- You have to go.
I have to go.
Bye.
Follow that ridge!
There they are!
Lower!
- We're too close to the treetops.
- I don't care about the treetops!
Shoot the first one
that leaves the pack!
Where?
I can't see anything.
Over there!
Don't lean too far out!
Steady!
The rest ran off to Sweden.
They'll be back.
Their cubs are here.
- They won't be back.
- Wait and see.
Good job, Markus.
I didn't think Swedes could fly.
This has nothing to do with hunting.
- Call it whatever you want.
- I call it execution.
I'm just looking out for my sheep.
Why leave them untended
in the forest?
- We've thought about tending them.
- You have!
Why don't you send us
some Swedish shepherds?
Where did it go, Jon?
Can you see it?
Why don't you answer
your cell phone?
Where's the bus?
I tried calling you. Not enough
signed up. The trip is cancelled.
Why not go on vacation
with your mom instead?
I want to climb!
Kim, sometimes I wonder if you take
this climbing thing too seriously.
What do I do now, dad?
- Hi, Mats. I'm joining you to Stavern.
- Great!
But not really.
It's a cover operation.
I'm forwarding my cell phone to
yours. If anyone calls, I'm with you.
- I'm going to climb the East Wall.
- You can't. That's dangerous!
Mats, lie for me,
or I'll come and beat you up.
I wouldn't mind the beating,
if you'd just come visit.
I'll crush your medicines
so you die of a fur allergy! Please?
- I can't lie if your mom calls.
- Mom's in love. She won't call.
Excuse me.
- A climber girl?
- What's it look like?
Like you need some help.
LOVE
- Hi, Jon.
- Hi, girls!
What's with you?
Encyclopedia?
A computer game.
This is a GPS tracking system.
You attach this chip to the wolf.
Then you can read its position
with a margin of error of 1 meter.
How are you going to attach
the chip to the wolf?
Say this is one of your sheep
that the wolf has just killed.
You stick the chip inside the meat...
The wolf eats the meat...
And it's tagged!
Do we have to use sheep? Why not
just toss that sausage into the woods?
You know wolves only eat meat
from their own prey.
I just hate all this talk
about dead sheep.
Nasty, huh?
In the old days wolf packs
would come across the ice
and tear babies
out of their mothers' arms.
- It happened in the winter of 1675.
- Don't scare the kid!
Need any help?
Can you show me
how to get to the East Wall?
- Ingvald.
- The East Wall is right there.
Head up this way
until you see the 60 km sign.
Take a right
and go straight for 6-7 km.
Mats speaking.
Hi, Cec...
Hi.
Yes, her trip was cancelled,
so she's here with me.
No, she just went... swimming.
I'll do that.
Bye.
- Who just went swimming?
- Wrong number.
Time for another hunt!
What's your problem?
- That was Guri.
- Take it easy, Ingvald.
- It wasn't Guri.
- Sure it was. Look at her leg.
It was Guri.
Ingvald, come on!
- It's just a sheep.
- Easy for you to say.
Mats speaking.
Hi again, Cecilie.
No, Kim just stepped out.
Are you coming here?
Hi there!
Knut, where are you going?
- So where's Kim?
- Kim?
Hi!
We may have... a tiny problem.
Poor sheep!
This belonged to
someone called 2098.
Fine. It belonged to 2098,
but now it's yours.
Did you find the rest of Guri?
I can't find any dead sheep
to place that chip in.
Not a trace?
Then she died in vain.
You won't tell, will you?
Mommy's asleep. You can do
whatever you want. Isn't that cool?
You'll change your attitude
when you get older. Believe me.
- Want to come wolf hunting?
- Have you seen a dead sheep?
- Or half of one?
- 2098. Her name was Guri.
This is Cecilie Nochmnner.
Her daughter is missing.
She's been gone a week.
We need a search party.
Could she have been the one
who asked for directions?
Brown hair, purple T-shirt,
brown pants, barefoot?
Yes.
Have you seen her?
Kim!
My wonderful little baby!
What were you thinking?
I have been so worried.
Say something!
What are you doing here?
I've been looking for you.
You reek of wet dog!
I've been living with a wolf.
She didn't want me to leave.
- That's not funny!
- I'm serious.
Today for breakfast we ate
the forepart of a sheep called 2098.
Let's go have your head checked.
Let's find a taxi and go home.
- Look, there's what's-his-name.
- Jon.
What brings you here?
- I brought these for you.
- Aren't you nice. Thank you!
- Did it go OK?
- Fine. They said her head's fine.
Where was the wolf's den?
Near the East Wall somewhere.
But it was more like an old shack.
Thanks for your help, Kim!
Why did he thank me, mom?
- I think he's a little creepy.
- It was nice of him to drive us home.
- Men drive you wherever you want.
- They do, but...
If you hadn't lost this,
you could have called for help.
But I don't need help!
- Mats speaking.
- Mats, I'm so sad!
Your mom and my dad were furious!
I'm grounded the rest of the summer!
I'm sorry.
Mats, I'm so...
Selfish! You've tricked me for the
last time. You can return that book!
Who's calling?
TV2?
This is truly shocking news.
A wolf kidnapped a young girl.
Local hunters plan to track down
and shoot the wolf.
This is sheep farmer Jon Reitan.
What is the mood in the village?
It's out of control.
The wolves are
practically running around our feet.
- How are you going to find the wolf?
- We know where it is.
According to the hunters
the wolf is in an abandoned shack.
The locals plan to keep their
children inside until it is found.
- Kim?
- Taxi!
4830 kroner.
There's a teller machine
right over here.
- No sign of wolves?
- They were here two days ago.
Come on!
Are you crazy?
If they see you, you're dead!
- What was that?
- Quiet.
Run!
It's just a sheep, Jon.
Maybe it's Gudfrid.
- That's Gudfrid, all right.
- You're crazy.
Gudfrid!
Don't get any ideas.
I'm not Gudfrid.
It's good to see you again.
Let me tell you about the world.
If you eat sheep, they will shoot you.
But if you eat normal animals,
like elk, moose, guinea pig...
Well, maybe not guinea pig,
but deer and things like that...
Then they won't shoot you.
It's that simple.
Got it?
Your wound looks nasty.
Let me have a look at it.
Mind if I operate?
I think I can dig it out,
but you can't move. Understand?
It's like a band-aid.
You have to do it quick.
That wasn't so bad, was it?
I have to go.
I'll be back tomorrow. I promise.
I can speak wolf!
Mom?!
- The cab driver called me from this.
- I hate this phone!
This will come out
of your confirmation money.
- I'm not getting confirmed.
- Then from your inheritance!
What were you thinking?
- I was in a hurry.
- Jon will drive us home.
Can't we stay a few more days?
It's so nice here.
Nice?
This place is full of wolves.
- We haven't found any yet.
- Neither have I.
We can't stay, Kim.
- You have a spare room, Ingvald.
- Guttastugu is empty, but...
You expect them to stay there?
- It's perfect.
- Thanks, but we have to go.
It has a beautiful view.
Quiet. Calm.
- Please, mom?
- What would we do there?
Kim!
You could spend some time together,
as mother and daughter.
Welcome to Guttastugu!
We have had a lot of fun here.
- Isn't this nice, mom?
- Great.
This is my room.
- Look at all the sheep, mom!
- Aren't they nice?
I count them when I can't sleep.
Where's the bathroom?
I bought a flower.
Nice.
But where is the bathroom?
- What did I just step in?
- Horse poop.
- Relax, mom.
- A horse!
- Did the boys take care of you?
- Yes. I even got a flower.
- A potted plant?
- Yes. A potted plant.
- Do you like horses?
- Eh... Sure.
- You hate horses, mom.
- No I don't. I think they're...
Weren't you going to the bathroom?
Want a ride?
We didn't find any wolves
by the shack.
But we found a sheep.
It bleated like a little girl.
You tricked Ingvald.
But not me.
Look at you!
Let's go, mom.
- Want some home-brew?
- Moonshine?
Let's go, mom!
I'm coming, Kim.
Go on ahead.
Cheers.
- Go ahead. Pet him.
- I don't dare.
I don't dare!
Quiet.
She's sleeping.
- Give me a goodnight kiss.
- Oh no. Good night.
- Mom?
- Yes?
Never mind.
Good night.
Mom?
Mom, I'm going out.
Mom?
I throw and you fetch.
Bring it back, like a dog.
Fetch!
You have to go get it.
Come on!
Cool!
Now that you're hunting deer,
and not sheep,
you don't have to worry
about the hunters.
Where are you, Kim?
There you are, with your friend.
Yes!
- The wolf is tagged!
- Did it take another sheep?
Not a sheep, Ingvald.
A deer!
I found it an hour after it was killed.
I placed the chip
right in its tenderloin!
Look.
Is that our wolf?
- It just came out of Guttastugu.
- No way!
It came out of your ass!
You don't understand high-tech.
- I should go check on my guests.
- Ever seen a wolf in Guttastugu?
No.
Cheers, boys!
Tomorrow we'll go hunting.
Hi.
- Nice jacket.
- Like it? It's Jon's.
- I preferred Knut.
- I meant the jacket.
I didn't.
Please, sit.
I think the two of us should take
a walk in the woods tomorrow.
- You hate walking in the woods.
- I do? You're right. I do.
I wasn't aware how horrible
that wolf experience was for you.
It was the greatest thing
I have ever experienced.
If that wolf comes back,
I'll have Jon shoot it for you.
- You can't! Mama Wolf is great!
- What are you talking about?
- She fed me.
- Nonsense.
- She took care of me when I was ill.
- I take care of you when you're ill.
You told me to call for pizza, and
went to London for the weekend!
You're being unfair.
You said it was OK.
It wasn't OK.
It's never been OK.
Where are you going?
You can't just leave!
How's that?
They like it!
You like water?
I didn't know
that wolves liked to swim.
Knock it off, Pl!
They'll be gone soon.
How do they find us?
Stop it, you idiot!
Wolves don't swim!
They do according to
the church ledger from 1777.
- Not now!
- What is it?
- The batteries are low.
- We should have taken our cars.
Shit!
Hello?
Climber girl!
Couldn't you find any hills?
Are those your friends?
- May I borrow your phone?
- Could you keep them...
- Mats speaking.
- It's Kim.
You've got 30 seconds.
What are you up to, Kim?
I befriended two wolves. Mom's new
boyfriend is trying to shoot them.
He keeps tracking us down!
- Do they have tracking collars?
- No. It's like he's psychic.
- They'll be safe in Sweden.
- That's too far.
That isn't my problem.
Bye.
Wait!
If the transmitter isn't on the wolf...
it might be on you.
You need some dry clothes.
- How do they feel?
- Fine.
- Let me get you some coffee.
- I don't drink coffee.
This cost 15.000 kroner. The more
I use it, the cheaper each cup gets.
You have no choice.
Taste it.
- Not bad.
- That's what you get for 15.000.
- Is that your helicopter?
- Yes.
Can you fly
me and the wolves to Sweden?
- No. It doesn't run.
- But they'll be shot!
It's broken.
It doesn't fly.
May I keep these clothes a while?
- Where are you going?
- To Sweden.
- Over 40 km through virgin forest?
- Wait and see!
We have to go to Sweden.
Come on!
I'm hungry.
Aren't you?
Maybe wolves don't get hungry.
Wait for me!
What are you doing?
You expect me to eat that?
No way.
I can't handle food
that's full of flies.
Then again, I have eaten vomit.
This can't be much worse.
No!
Here.
Listen. He's found some other supper.
We don't have to feel guilty.
Is this Ron the junkman?
It's Markus.
I'm on my way.
I need spare parts!
I'll land in the parking lot.
Just move the cars!
They're all junk anyway.
- What are you doing?
- You have to help me find Kim!
My daughter is missing!
Can you help me?
We're hunting, Cecilie.
Take the horse.
- Drive!
- She's looking for her...
- What are you doing, Jon?
- What did she want?
What's going on?
No.
Forget about it.
Easy...
No!
Don't move.
- How far away is it?
- East, 3 km. Come on!
- How do these work?
- Tune it to channel 2.
- Roger. Over and out.
- What are you doing?
That's how they talk on these.
Jon, I forgot that PGS...GSP machine
in the car. Should I get it? No?
Hello?
Anyone here? Jon?
Shit!
- Have you seen Kim?
- Kim? I'm her mother.
I realize that.
Have you seen the wolves?
- What are you talking about?
- Kim's friends. The wolves.
- The hunters are after them.
- What is Kim up to?
Kim's on her way to Sweden.
- Where are you going?
- To Sweden!
- Stop that!
- Help me start this thing!
- What's your name?
- Cecilie.
Cecilie, get out.
Let me fix it first.
Ingvald?
I tripped.
He fell right on his face.
I got a pinecone in my mouth.
We have to take a shortcut.
A steep one.
- She's heading for the East Wall.
- She?
The wolf!
That's all we needed.
You have to sit perfectly still
or you'll pull me down.
Is that understood?
Forget it!
No. Don't forget it.
Two kilometers to the East Wall!
Spread out!
No! Don't move!
Come back!
Come back!
Come...
- The wolf's climbing!
- I've never seen anything like it.
It's over.
- I'm climbing.
- Is that such a good idea?
Shut up!
Get the car
and meet me at the border.
- What about Jon?
- He's tough. He'll be fine.
Fine.
Let's go.
Yes!
They're leaving.
Let's go to Sweden.
- Didn't it fit?
- Relax. I just need to get it right.
Mats?
You're too young for mopeds.
I found this in his car.
It's a GPS tracker.
Him and the other hunters
have tagged Kim!
- Markus is fixing his helicopter.
- With those rusty tools?
They may shoot Kim
instead of the wolf.
How do I get there?
Take the second left off that road
and go straight.
- Can you ride, Cecilie?
- Of course. All girls can ride.
That girl isn't human!
Wait for me!
- What is it with Jon?
- I don't know.
He doesn't even care for his sheep.
Easy...
We'll just wait till he's gone.
We have to crawl deeper.
Kim?
Kim?
Come out, Kim!
Kim?
Don't move.
I don't want to shoot you too.
Shit!
It's dead now, Kim.
Kim?
No...
Damn kid!
Do you want to get killed?
Is that what you want?
Where's the wolf?
Where is the wolf?!
- Move!
- No!
Move!
- Move!
- Don't shoot!
Stay away from my daughter!
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
Mom!
No, don't shoot!
Drop your weapon!
Turn around!
- What's going on?
- Turn around!
- Calm down...
- Hands on your back!
Easy.
Drop your weapons!
What's going on, Jon?
There are wolves loose
and they're arresting me!
- I was just trying to save the girl.
- No! I saw him aim at her!
- That's a lie!
- Then what's the truth, Jon?
The truth is that your friend attached
a transmitter to Kim, not the wolf.
He could have turned you
into murderers. That's the truth.
Pl? Ingvald?
Help me, boys.
No!
Don't shoot!
Oh shit.
Please let Kim go.
I'm very nervous.
Never leave
without saying goodbye.
