BEDROOM / video

Anna wakes up sprawled out on a large bed. The sun shines bright in her eyes. She looks around. Rises. Naked.

The bed starts to turn around. The floor swirls. She throws herself on the back.

The roof seems to press down against her. The black coat lie on the floor. Burnt, in shreds. A lies on her back. Eyes closed.

KITCHEN / video

Anna dressed in the black coat sits at kitchen table. A man dressed in workers overalls stands by the sink, drinking coffee.

The man talks, in a controlled voice :
"The caravan burned down totally. You told us the children were alone, playing inside. They never did anything like that before, you said."

Anna stammers her question. Repeats it as if she doesnīt understand her own words.
"I donīt remember. The fire. The children. Nothing. I donīt remember."

The man continues : " They are taken care of. The police handled everything. They are allright. They sent you to the hospital. "Just to be safe". You donīt remember anything ?"

Anna shakes her head. Drinks coffe. Lights a cigarette. Shakes her head again. Repeats her own words.
"I donīt remember. Anything. When and how did I ..."

She drags the black coat around her, suddenly aware of her nakedness. Of her situation.
