Scenes from the Night

Artists Marianne and Henrik Friborg had a long and happy marriage until a couple of years ago, when Henrik suddenly and painfully broke it off. Now Henrik has a heart condition and is critically ill. The doctors are very concerned. Visiting him at his deathbed, Marianne realizes – against her daughters' wishes – that Henrik's mistress Paula should also be allowed to bid him farewell. On Henrik's last night, Marianne and Paula meet for the first time. (Prague Short Film Festival)
