turned away, in profile,
:37:03
his face a blank mask.
:37:06
He was very happy that Edvard
had received the scholarship.

:37:11
But he was sorry that he had forgotten
to send Edvard's Bible.

:37:19
I've written to Edvard to say
that he must buy one.

:37:25
At this period,
:37:26
as he paints Mrs. Heiberg standing
outside her summer cottage,

:37:31
her shadow looming large,
:37:33
the psychic and sexual tension
of Edvard Munch

:37:36
is at an unbearable peak.
:37:39
Constantly, his nerves
are at breaking point

:37:41
as he struggles to find
the artistic solution

:37:44
to expressing his feelings.
:37:48
He is isolated from his family,
separated for ever from his father.

:37:53
His work is rejected
in his own country.

:37:56
He watches his mistress, Dagny Juell,
pass from one hand to another.

:38:01
His bronchial condition is worsening.
He is drinking heavily.

:38:07
It's far too dangerous
to share a woman with another man.

:38:11
If a man mounts a woman
who has just been with another man,

:38:19
the preceding man's sperm will enter
the organ of the man now mounting her.

:38:28
He believes that he is going insane,
:38:31
that he is about to die.
:38:37
With Sigbjørn Obstfelder, Edvard Munch
briefly visits Kristiania.

:38:43
At the same time, in Berlin,
:38:45
Dagny Juell is marrying
:38:48
Stanislav Przybyszewski.
:38:56
This can't go on.
I can't put up with anymore.
