How are you going to kill her?
:12:07
lt's all quiet in the apartment.
:12:10
And intense sunlight floods in.
:12:15
We've been left to our own devices
for several days. Perhaps longer.

:12:20
We haven't quarreled. All is...
:12:23
quiet. Maybe it's early morning.
The street is empty.

:12:28
A feeling of peacefulness
overcomes me.

:12:32
Everything seems very far away.
:12:35
l mean, work, everyday life,
voices and appointments.

:12:41
There's no agitation or fear.
:12:47
l can see her moving
around in the bathroom...

:12:51
saturated in the intense,
almost unreal sunlight.

:12:56
She's combing her hair.
:12:59
l've always loved to watch my wife.
:13:03
Even when we hated each other.
Or when she was revoltingly drunk...

:13:07
sick or just angry.
l've always loved the way she moves.

:13:13
Her scent, her presence.
:13:18
She has turned toward the mirror.
She watches me in the mirror.

:13:22
She is lost in her own thoughts,
but she breathes heavily.

:13:27
l'm standing behind her,
at an angle...

:13:30
and l'm holding the razor
in my right hand.

:13:33
She watches me the whole time.
And now she really sees me.

:13:40
An imperceptible smile
hovers around her lips.

:13:47
l can feel her slight agitation,
a slight pulse at her throat.

:13:51
Did you know that a human body
contains a large amount of blood?

:13:56
lf you cut the jugular vein, you and
the walls would be covered in blood.
