A prisoner is forbidden to
leave the prison area
unless either in the
escort of prison guards,
or with permission
from the prison authorities.
Art. 6 of the Prison Law
Good morning to you all.
Nourishing yourselves?
This is one of the cleanest
hallways in the prison,
and on that note, hello Georg.
This is our new warden.
Hjördís.
Georg Bjarnfreðarson.
- Yes, hello.
Welcome to your new job.
- Thanks for that.
Are you not afraid of taking
on such a tasking job?
No, I've been in the
business for many years.
She's highly educated
from Sweden.
Sweden? Where then?
- Uppsala.
Uppsala? Nothing less?
A student from
Uppsala-la-la, Uppsala-la-la, Uppsa-
So you're Georg Bjarnfreðarson.
- That's me.
Who put up the reading center.
- Exactly.
We need to talk about that.
- Right then.
But what of the inmates that
seek enlightenment in here?
We have a library.
- B-b-but this is my space!
I-I-I made a h-h-honorary
pact with Jóhanna!
I gave her certain
information
I also want you to stop
wearing that jacket.
Why?
- You know well why.
It's my personal property!
- And you'll have it back
when you're out, but in
here you follow the rules.
You can dress up as a
guard in your own home.
I'll take that, thank you.
Thanks for that, man.
You'll bring it yourself?
3 o'clock, yeah.
Listen, I
have to go. He's here.
Ok, see ya.
Howdy.
Everything's cool?
Sure. Is something up?
- No, nothing going on.
Are you up for some pool?
- Not today, no.
There's plenty to do,
with christmas and all.
Maybe later then.
And swing
it under Stupid junk!
Georg, can you make
a bow tie?
I don't know these people.
What am I thinking?
I can't do this.
I'll look like a fool.
They've ordered a priest
and the works.
This is all going to hell.
- I'm done.
OK, this is good.
What's this?
For whom are these?
Those are presents
for the prisoners.
They're from the charities.
Free gifts then?
- Of course.
You like Christmas?
- Yeah, but not much.
I didn't celebrate
Christmas much at home.
We never had a Christmas
tree or anything like that.
Oh?
- Nah
Why not?
- There never was any time.
Daddy has to go now.
Be nice to mommy now.
Let me talk to mommy now.
OK bye.
I just wanted to say goodbye.
I'll call again at 8 o'clock.
I'll hear from you
when you open the presents.
OK. I love you.
Thanks for the news.
Hello?
- Hello.
Who is it?
- Flemming Geir?
Yes?
- Hi.
It's Georg.
Your father.
I thought I'd call you
since it's-
Hello?
Here's a present for
you! Present, present present!
Awesome.
Which Santa Claus are you?
Saint Nick in the nick is
out on the town, sonny!
Is there a return
slip on it?
It's just a Christmas
present, you know.
Present for you!
Here's a present!
Present present!
Here's a rock solid
giant present just for you.
Hey, thanks
Present, present
present! Here's a present for you!
Do you have one for me?
- Yep, I'm drowning in gifts.
Here you go.
So it's smoked pork tonight?
Yes, and lobster as well.
- And quail for New Year's.
Chicken for New Years?
- No, quail. They're smaller.
Oh. Why not a turkey?
It's a giant chicken.
Yeah?
You'll work it out.
- We've already bought them.
Why get a small bird
when we can have a large one?
I told you, we've
already bought them.
I'd rather have a turkey.
- Then have one when you're out.
Ho ho ho!
Merry Christmas!
Hello Ólafur dear!
- You recognized me?
You look good in the beard.
- Thanks for that.
I have a free gift for you,
straight from Santa Claus.
For me?
Thanks for that.
I have a small package
here for you.
It won't make up for
the old times
maybe I didn't
prioritize things properly back then.
It's just something a little
That doesn't matter.
That all in the past,
I live in the future now.
I just wanted you to
know how sorry I am.
Thanks for this, dad.
They said he wasn't ft
enough to travel.
I know that he would
have loved to be here,
he's so proud of you.
- Yeah
You can visit him
when you get out.
It's not that long to go.
Hopefully he'll be
discharged by then.
But don't I need
a best man?
Not necessarily.
We're always so informal.
But isn't there
always one?
The new warden allowed me
to decorate the conjugal house.
Decorate it? Is
that necessary?
Of course. You need to
have a little romance,
After all, it is
your wedding night.
Yes, of course.
Maybe this guy will get
the last gift for himself.
You haven't got a package yet?
No, I haven't.
Of course you get a package.
Everyone gets a package on
this joyous day. Ho ho-ho!
You look like an idiot.
- Not in a Christmas mood?
What do you want?
- This package is for you.
Oh?
- It's from Santa Claus.
I have never celebrated
Christmas myself.
I fnd it to be a childish
and foolish custom.
If you don't want it
Let's call this a gift
for an occasion.
Have it your way, but what
matters is that it's Christmas
and Saint Nick in the nick
is doing the rounds!
Ólafur!-Yeah?
Look, I have a problem.
The thing is
It's a bit special
and I couldn't think of
anyone else. -Yeah, OK.
Are you wlling to be
my best man?-Which is?
To stand at my side
during the ceremony
and hold the rings and stuff.
- Let me think, yes.
You will?
- Yes!
Uhm would you rather?
Can't you both do it?
That's quite possible.
- Good. Both of you then.
That's great. -I'll accept
this important position.
I'll look after the rings.
It's the best for all.
We don't want them to
be lost or damaged.
They're safe with me.
Aren't you feeling good?
Isn't everything OK?
What, do you have a
fungus in your vagina?
Are you mad at me?
- What makes you think that?
Justyou gave
everybody presents
but not me.
Oh? Wait
Did I forget you?
Ólafur! Did I screw up.
Have you cleared out your cell?
No, I've cleaned things
up a bit, but
No, you're getting out today.
- Getting out?
Today?
- Yeah.
I thought it wasn't
until on the 24th.
Today is the 24th.
- It's Christmas Eve!
Christmas Eve is on
the 24th of December.
People are normally quite
happy to get out of prison.
Not me. I have stuff to do
and all my friends are here.
And dad.
I see. You want to spend
Christmas here with us?
I kinda need to, you see?
A big thing is going down,
this will screw that up.
Come on!
Hi!
You can't
see her in her dress!
Close your eyes!
Guff! We had
practised this! You've ruined it!
Bubbi!
We'll play.
- Bubbi!
Do you want to play?
Cloppity-clop!
Oh noooo!
I told you to make him
wear a diaper!
You said that he was
ready for this!
There, there, it's alright.
- Mistake
Here are some pants.
- Thanks Daníel.
Guff, this is Daníel.
He's to be Ylfa's husband.
This is their special day.
- No, I'm special!
Yes, dear.
- I'm special.
Guff, remember that
you're my special boy.
Accident
- Yes, be nice to him.
So, how are you?
Let's step outside.
Go for a walk or something.
- No.
Why not?
- I don't want to.
Don't you need some
fresh air in this one?
Let's go to the shop
and have ourselves a treat.
There could be something
out there you'd like.
I was pretty stressed out
myself when I got married.
I was about to crap my pants.
But dad talked me through it.
Dads are awesome.
- And when it's all over,
you realize that it was
a piece of cake.
Nooo.
- No problem at all.
I did have a secret
weapon wth me.
Which was?-I brought
a good friend, Mr. Jameson.
Just say "ho", this'll
be our little secret.
You're quite the guy
It's refreshing.
You're such good people.
Yes.
- Good people.
Can I call you daddy?
Sure, of course.
- Really?
Guff?
Where's Guff?
I'm special
Guff, come here at once!
- No!
He's gettng married!
- No, no!
Bubbi!
- Stop it! Stop it!
Ásbjörn
- There there.
When I was a child
I thought as a child,
I understood as a child,
but when I became a
fullgrown man,
I put away chil dish things.
Childish thing
And now abideth faith, hope,
charity, these three,
but the greatest
of these is charity.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Bubbi Morthens!
Take it away!
Merry Christmas, guys.
Merry Christmas!
You there, there's a
free seat over here.
Come on, sit down,
no need to be shy.
What are you guys thinking?
It's Christmas Eve,
and you're in the slammer.
So are you.
- But I can leave
anytime I want
to join my family while
you're locked up in a cell.
That's the way it is.
Some of you will be
here for 10-12 years!
Spending Christmas here,
maybe you think it's a
luxury to have a guard
opening your presents?
I know your denial.
Do you think Mohammad Ali
just happened to become
the world champion for
the third time when he
knocked out George Foreman?
No, he did it himself!
I know that you do things,
but you don't answer for them!
You're the largest group
of victims I've ever seen
in one evening, and on
Christmas Eve to boot.
But I'm not here to talk
down to you guys,
I'm here to entertain you,
but before I do that
I have to tell you one thing.
There is a way out.
What you need to do is to
be accountable for your lives.
He who does not accept the
responsibilities in his life
will be a victim for the
rest of his life.
It's never too late.
It's only too late
once you're dead.
I'm going to play a song
that's about you guys,
written for you guys.
I have been in this place
for eighteen years.
Everything has a
beginning and end.
Life if so precious,
The eyes are coloured blue.
To the dead man, I send
To the dead man, I send
Nothing happened,
the frst three years.
I laid numb, inside here.
Time didn't pass and
I couldn't change a thing,
I know Death
never forgets, I fear.
I know Death
never forgets, I fear.
Tomorrow, tomorrow,
they'll make it wide open,
Wide open the giant door.
I'm afraid of living,
and which bloody way
does one walk, when
your time here is no more.
does one walk, when
your time here is no more.
Daddy? Ho.
- Shhh
Ho?
Hello? Hi honey.
No, it hasn't started yet.
Hold on.
- When wll he bring the rings?
Ho.
Ho
- Shhh
Daníel.
I'm sorry that I'm late.
I was delayed.
It's alright.
No worries.
Daníel.
I now ask the bride,
Ylfa Dís Jónsdóttir,
is it your solemn intent
to be wed to this man,
Daníel Sævarsson?
- Yes!
Likewise I ask the groom,
Daníel Sævarsson,
is it your solemn intent
to be wed to this woman,
Ylfa Dís Jónsdóttir?
- Nah.
What?
Yes of course, man.
Let's have the rings.
Place your rings upon
each other's hand,
as a testament of the
bonds of matrimony,
love and devotion.
Now take each other's
hand to verify your
commitments to this
rite of marriage.
By your vows of living
together in sacred matrimony,
and your confessions
in front of wtnesses,
and before the grace of God,
I now declare you to be
husband and wife.
You may now kiss.
Stop it!
Now get ready!
Closer together!
OK, smile now!
Thank you, I had a
great time here. -Likewise.
I'll see you here again soon.
- Hopefully not.
