:38:01
I'm much older than Eva.
:38:04
I felt as if a gray film
were settling over life.
:38:08
I felt as if I could
look back and say,
:38:13
"Well, well, so that was my life,
that's how it all turned out."
:38:22
But suddenly things were different.
:38:30
Please forgive me, but
it's still rather hard to...
:38:41
Yes. We had some years
that were very rich. Erik.
:38:52
You should have seen Eva.
:38:56
At the time of Erik's birth
:38:59
I was recording
all the Mozart sonatas.
:39:02
-I hadn't one day free.
-No.
:39:05
We invited you
over and over again.
:39:09
When Erik drowned,
that gray film got even grayer.
:39:14
For Eva it was different.
:39:18
-Different?
-Her feeling lives, uncorroded.
:39:24
Or so it seems anyway.
:39:27
If she feels that her son
is alive and near her,
:39:36
well, perhaps that's how it is.
:39:39
She seldom speaks of it.
:39:42
I guess she's afraid
it might upset me
:39:44
as indeed it would.
:39:47
But what she says
sounds true enough.
:39:51
-I believe her.
-Yes, you're a minister.
:39:56
-My faith lives on her terms.
-I'm sorry if I hurt you.
