lt's all just lies and imitation,
all of it!

1:03:13
Elisabet, what have you got there?
1:03:18
What are you hiding
under your hand? Let me see.

1:03:25
lt's the photo of your little boy.
The one you tore up.

1:03:29
We must talk about that.
1:03:39
Tell me about it, Elisabet.
1:03:42
Then l will.
1:03:45
lt was one night at a party, isn't
that so? lt got late and quite rowdy.

1:03:52
Towards morning
someone in the group said:

1:03:56
''Elisabet, you virtually have it all in
your armoury as a woman and artist.''

1:04:00
''But you lack motherliness.''
1:04:04
You laughed
because you thought it sounded silly.

1:04:08
But after a while you noticed
you thought about what he'd said.

1:04:13
You became more and more worried.
You let your husband impregnate you.

1:04:19
You wanted to be a mother.
1:04:22
When you realized it was definite,
you became frightened.

1:04:26
Frightened of responsibility, of being
tied down, of leaving the theatre.

1:04:32
Frightened of pain, of dying,
frightened of your body swelling up.

1:04:38
But you played the role. The role
of a happy, young, expectant mother.

1:04:45
Everyone said, ''lsn't she beautiful?
She's never been so beautiful.''

1:04:53
Meanwhile you tried to abort the foetus
several times.

1:04:57
But you failed.
