Babycall



Pål Sletaune : 2011

Under the witness protection programme, single mother Anna moves with her eight-year-old son Anders to a large flat with a secret address outside Oslo, to get away from her violent ex-husband. Terrified they will be found, Anna becomes over-protective of her son, even buying a baby monitor so that he doesn't have to sleep in her bed. But strange noises start to echo from inside the building – or is she imagining that someone is hurting a child somewhere? Meanwhile, Anders makes a mysterious young friend who starts visiting at odd hours. Does this new friend know anything about the murder? And why is Anders' drawing stained with blood? We follow Anna as she attempts to hide out in her new flat, taking small steps into society only to feel threatened by everything she encounters. Soon, Anna will no longer know what she can trust or what is imagined or real.
