THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
[suspenseful music playing]
Hey, guess where I'm headed right now.
Yes, I got it.
[chuckles]
No, it's right now.
I'm going in and doing it now.
It's the whole package.
I'm getting a proper interview.
This is the first in-depth interview
with the CEO of Hartmann Finance, ever.
Yes, thank you.
FIVE YEARS AGO
[Leon] This is fantastic.
Hey, smile a little.
The air is fresher, there's more space,
it's more cost-effective. Huh?
[Katja] More space for Bolt to run around.
Mom, it's not all sad.
Look on the bright side.
[Leon] Hey, we agreed
that this was a smart move.
A new start, new possibilities.
You can start a yoga group
and make some money again.
Come on.
We might even be able to afford
a bottle of champagne once in a while.
Hey
I'm a city girl.
I don't know how to live in the country.
How do you live out here?
Our friends will never
come all the way out here to visit us.
We'll never get any visitors.
- Hey, stop it.
- [Molly] Stop what?
[Leon] You make it sound
like this is my fault.
Are you saying it's my fault?
[Leon] Who insisted on maxing out our loan
just to live in Vinderen?
Don't go there.
Who took out three loans
with 15 percent interest
- to live in Vinderen?
- You want to do this here?
Hello. We just wanted to say hello.
[Leon] We're just having
a little discussion.
We wanted to see who was moving in.
Yeah.
Nobody has lived here for
It must be 15 years now, hmm?
Yeah, 15 years.
How does it look inside?
Is it Heh, is it inhabitable?
[Leon] Oh, for sure.
- Well
- It's nice.
There is a lot to be fixed, but
I like to work with my hands.
Mm. You won't have to do it alone.
- [Leon] What?
- [Mr. Kloppen] I'll call the neighbors.
Then we can do it together.
Okay? Does tomorrow work?
- At noon?
- [Leon] How nice.
Chipping in. Then we can barbecue.
Oh, it'll be fun. [chuckles]
- [Mr. Kloppen] Well, look at that!
- Yes, Katja. Say hello to
Well, who is this? Look. Hi, little buddy.
Aren't you pretty?
[chuckling]
Isn't that good?
Welcome to the neighborhood
to you, too. Yes.
[chuckling]
[door closes]
Okay, I can live here.
I can absolutely live here.
[Leon] These walls have soul.
They're still outside.
[Leon] Who?
[Molly] The neighbors.
Okay, I think we can agree
they were a bit strange.
- [Katja] What? They were super nice.
- [Leon] Yes.
[chuckles] Not invasive at all?
Inviting themselves to a barbecue
after three seconds?
[Leon] Stop it.
They wanted to help out with the house.
When did you start turning down free help?
I just thought it was a bit weird
how he talked to Bolt.
So intense.
So he's a dog person.
And she stood there with her cat.
"Ha, ha."
- Like she was retarded.
- [Katja] Mom!
[Leon] This will be great for all of us,
Molly. Just give it some time.
[Katja] Come on, Mom. Tag along.
Why don't we all walk Bolt?
Molly
Molly. It'll all work out.
- [Bolt whining]
- Guys, Bolt is losing his patience.
[Leon] Okay?
We have to stay positive.
[sighs]
[door closes]
Okay. Stay positive.
A new place.
That's positive, at least.
[screams]
Oh, fuck!
Yuck!
- Come on, Bolt.
- [barking]
Do you think many will show up?
I don't know. It's a workday.
I don't think too many will show up.
Yeah.
[crowd chattering]
Yeah, we must deal with those. And those.
Those are nice.
Back here, this is where we'll barbecue.
Come on. Here we are.
[chattering]
There. And then I'll take the other one.
[Leon] Oh
Oh, my God. It melts in your mouth.
What kind of meat is this?
- It's Kobe beef.
- Oh. Isn't that very expensive?
[Mr. Kloppen chuckles]
[chattering]
[birds squawk]
[horse whinnies]
[dog yips]
[Mrs. Kloppen] Here you are, my friend.
All by yourself. [chuckles]
Yeah. I'm not quite like Leon. I need time
to get used to new surroundings and stuff.
[Mrs. Kloppen]
Oh. I totally get that. [chuckles]
Sorry if we seem a bit too eager.
You must think we're crazy.
Hanging over your hedge
like some curious hens.
[all chuckle]
No, no. It's fine.
- I've been thinking.
- [Molly] Hmm?
If you have any questions about
well, anything. Life in the countryside
you're welcome to ask.
Okay.
Well, there is one thing.
Like
what's the deal with all the animals?
What do you mean?
[Molly] I've heard there are a lot
of animals in the country.
But they are everywhere.
Oh, no, that's
That's just how it is.
[Mrs. Kloppen chuckles] You never know
when they'll be useful, you know.
[chuckling]
Incredibly nice people.
Isn't it a bit strange
that so many showed up
on a regular Monday?
In the middle of the day. Don't they work?
Well, I don't know.
Maybe that's how things are out here.
Maybe small towns work flexible hours.
And they smile absolutely all the time.
So, there's something wrong
with that, too? Smiling?
I don't like how they're all
always petting their pets.
Do you know what Mrs. Kloppen said?
"You never know when you'll need them."
[Molly sighs]
I'm sorry.
I I'm really trying to like it here.
But it won't work.
Molly-Polly.
I know this wasn't the plan.
But we will end up in the city again.
- We will?
- Yes, of course.
Sooner or later.
We just need to get our finances sorted.
- You know what?
- I promise we'll be back in the city in
five, six years.
[Mrs. Kloppen] Let's cross our fingers
and hope for the best. [chuckles]
I've prepped Monsen for months.
[Mrs. Kloppen speaking indistinctly]
[suspenseful music playing]
[meow]
[twigs snap]
[gasps]
- Hello?
- What are you doing here?
What are you doing?
This is not good.
- She lives here now.
- Yes.
She would have found out, sooner or later.
[nervous chuckle]
What you'll learn today,
you must never tell anyone.
You'll have to promise. Do you promise?
Yes, okay. I promise.
The thing is,
Horgen is built upon the remains
of an old Viking village.
And that stone you saw in the forest today
is their old sacrificial stone.
They sacrificed animals upon it.
And sometimes even humans.
For good fortune.
But then
four years ago, Johan's dog got cancer.
Johan is the guy up the road
with the Asian lady
[woman] Anyway, anyway, Johan took the dog
to the woods and put it down.
He shot her, on the sacrificial stone.
The next day,
he won the lottery, 2.1 million kroner.
So, the sacrificial stone worked.
- Of course, the whole town heard.
- So we started sacrificing our animals,
when we needed some luck.
But never too much.
Never so much that it draws attention.
[laughs] But like
Okay, so, if you sacrifice something
then you win money?
Yes.
You have to be careful.
What do you mean?
You could turn greedy. Lose control.
Just knowing there is a stone in the woods
that can solve all of your problems
If you're not careful,
the stone can change you.
[clucking]
Hello?
WENT TO PICK UP THE RES
[grunts]
- [container clunks]
- [sighs in relief]
[suspenseful music playing]
[music swells]
- [hammer smashes]
- [groans]
Ugh.
[spits]
Mm.
Oh. Shit.
Hi. How may I help you?
Scratch tickets.
Yes, I know about the stone.
- So, then you know you also have to
- Yeah, I'll be careful.
- Can I get a Flax scratch ticket?
- Twenty-five kroner.
[coins clink]
[Molly] Fifty?
Fifty kroner for killing an animal?
What kind of animal was it?
A mouse. I caught it in the basement.
Or a rat, or something.
Doesn't it work with mice?
[Mrs. Kloppen] Yes, it does.
But the reward is naturally tied
to the stakes.
[woman] A mouse?
- That's a bit cheap.
- Yes.
It has to be an animal
you have a bond with.
One you care about.
[sighs]
- [Katja] Where does this one go?
- In the living room.
Wanna go for a walk? Yeah?
Let's take a walk.
[whining]
Come on up here. Hey. Come here.
Good job.
- We'll take that off.
- [yelping]
There.
Let's see. Okay.
There. Down!
- [whining]
- [panting]
[shudders]
[whining intensifies]
Stay positive.
This is a good thing.
- [grunts]
- [Bolt yelps]
[moans]
- [ominous drum beats]
- [hammer clatters]
[breathes shakily]
- [gulps]
- [ominous drumming continues]
I'll have a scratch ticket.
[clerk] Very well.
You know what? When is the deadline
for handing in a lottery ticket?
In four minutes.
Okay.
- [Katja] But, Dad, I'm worried.
- [Leon] It'll be fine.
Bolt has been out on adventures before.
He always comes back.
Yes, but we're in a new place.
And it's been two hours.
[Leon] Okay. We'll take another look.
Mom, are you coming with us?
We're looking for Bolt.
No, I I don't feel so good.
- Are you sick?
- I'm just a bit I'm a bit nauseous.
[Leon] Ah.
- Hope you won't get worse.
- Good luck.
I hope you find him.
[door closes]
But to play for the jackpot,
the lucky number has to be drawn.
The lucky number tonight is 17.
So, cross your fingers and toes
and hope number 17 turns up.
And we're off.
And it's 15.
Here comes 17, which is the lucky number.
This is going to be exciting.
Forty-six. Forty-six.
[laughs excitedly]
Yes, yes!
[exhales nervously]
Three. Three.
- Oh, fuck!
- I wonder if someone at home is grinning.
Yes. Yes, they are.
- Forty-four. Forty-four.
- Yes!
[squeals]
Okay, okay.
Come on, 16, 16
Oh
Twenty-seven.
And we'll draw the additional numbers.
- The first one is 22 22.
- No.
- No.
- And 42 42.
Today's numbers are: three, 15, 17
[Molly] What the fuck!
I've just killed the family dog
for fucking 3775 kroner!
Hell, that's less than we paid for him.
You said I would win more
if I had a bond to the animal!
[chuckles]
Yes, but But did you love the dog?
Y-Yes.
[scoffs]
It was my family's dog.
I I liked the dog.
Yes, I let Anyway!
Katja loved that dog
more than anything on this earth!
[Mrs. Kloppen] Yes, exactly.
So, if Katja had sacrificed the dog,
she would have become a millionaire.
The more we love them,
the more we win when we sacrifice them.
That's why we pet them all the time.
[kisses]
[eerie music playing]
[door opens]
[Leon] It's too dark.
We'll search tomorrow, okay?
Sleep tight.
[door closes]
What is it?
[sighs]
I think I've done something
very bad.
What?
Very, very bad.
I
[exhales heavily]
Oh, my God.
You have to come with me to the woods.
- Come on.
- But why?
- [whimpers]
- What?
[sighs heavily]
- It's about Bolt.
- Has something happened to Bolt?
Bolt
Bolt is dead.
- What?
- Shh.
Just come. Just come with me.
[door opens, then closes]
Molly. Talk to me. What are we doing here?
What is it?
Oh, my God.
[knife clinks]
Who has?
Leon?
I want you to listen to me.
Okay?
It's the neighbors.
Or like
That's why they have so many animals.
And this is a sacrificial stone
from the Viking era.
- And it works. I mean, it actually works.
- What are you saying?
- Did the neighbors sacrifice Bolt?
- No.
No, I
I just
Christ!
- Did you?
- Yes, but it works!
For real. So, if you could just see this
as an opportunity
- If we just get a
- Are you completely out of your mind?
No, but it It works. I won!
I mean, I won the lottery, 3775 kroner.
- But I didn't know it had to be
- Did you kill Bolt for 3775 kroner?
- You have to see this as an opportunity.
- No, hey
Just listen to me.
Don't.
- You're not listening.
- Hey
[Molly] You have to understand, Leon.
You've gone crazy.
You've actually gone crazy.
Leon, I love you.

- [music intensifies]
- [gasping]
[Thomas] Hi.
I have an appointment with the CEO
at 3:00.
Hey, are there any subjects
I should avoid with Hartmann?
You could ask her
how she earned her first million.
[chuckles]
She won't tell you.
I love you, Leon.
[gasps] I love you! I love you, Leon!
I'm Thomas Hatlestad
from Dagens Næringsliv.

[Katja whimpers]
[groans]

- [Leon groans]
[breaths shakily]
But you've also experienced
great tragedies in your life.
Your mom turned psychotic.
And then, just a year later,
your dad disappeared without a trace.
Yes, it's incredibly sad.
