00:00I am most interested in how you can let it be to take contact.
00:06We are hoping to find some information about a musician from Texas.
00:10No, I have very little information on this band.
00:13Okay.
00:14The address was one of the lights we had.
00:17Do you know where Paul is today?
00:20No, I don't know.
00:21He starts to get to the year.
00:23Suddenly it doesn't have any day in the morning.
00:26Is that in Houston?
00:27Yes, maybe it's already too late.
00:29Let's see.
00:32In the end of the 70-tall,
00:34the mother of Lina Marias was in Europe.
00:37In Paris, she stood up to listen to a group of musicians.
00:41One of the players was a charming man from the USA.
00:45The one led to the other.
00:47One year later, she was born Lina Maria.
00:50After a couple of years, the contacts broke.
00:53And the lines are closed here in Texas.
00:56Now she doesn't want to contact with her father.
00:59But she's worried that it's maybe too late.
01:02Or that he doesn't want to feel like her.
01:05The other.
01:07The other.
01:08The other.
01:09The other.
01:10What I think is what you search for when you choose to look up a child that you've never met.
01:39It's a question of who you are yourself.
01:43It's probably what we all work all the time.
01:49I don't know if it will change me or make me a whole person.
01:57But I think it can give me new aspects of my life and who I am.
02:07Oh, my favorite.
02:11I'm a musical artist and I work on a boat just now.
02:15I'm a lot to go back.
02:17Yeah, it is.
02:49Louvron.
02:50Yeah, exactly.
02:51In his cowboy-stövlar.
02:53Long-hawk.
02:55I don't know.
02:57I don't know.
02:58I don't know.
02:59I don't know.
03:00I don't know.
03:01Yeah.
03:02I don't know.
03:04I don't know.
03:05I don't know.
03:06I don't know.
03:07I don't know.
03:08I don't know.
03:09I don't know.
03:10I don't know.
03:12I don't know.
03:13I don't know.
03:14I don't know.
03:15I don't know.
03:16I've never sent a date for someone.
03:17I don't know.
03:18I don't know.
03:19I think he's already done.
03:20I'm fine.
03:21I'm sure.
03:22I got it.
03:23I'm not sure.
03:24I'm sure.
03:25The reason why I have decided to do this race now and take this chance is
03:31and take this chance, it's just that it doesn't have any day in the morning anymore.
03:42He's starting to get to the years.
03:45Maybe it's already too late, but it's better to do it now than to wait for 10 years.
03:52But if you see him now, if he doesn't want to have any contact?
03:58Or if he doesn't live?
04:00It's just nothing to lose, herregud.
04:03It's just your journey now.
04:10I think it's going to be so exciting.
04:13I'm most interested in who he is, why he has never taken contact.
04:19How he can let him get to contact.
04:22He must be very interested in what he became of me.
04:27He can't think anything else.
04:30Lida-Maria.
04:33Yeah, it is.
04:34Hey, we're going to meet you.
04:35It's the same.
04:36It's the same.
04:37It's good.
04:38It's good.
04:39It's good.
04:40How long have you waited for this?
04:4130 years now.
04:4230?
04:43Yes.
04:44How long have you been to New York?
04:45Yeah.
04:46You're a lot.
04:47You're a lot.
04:48You're a lot.
04:49To Texas?
04:50Yes.
04:51Then we're going to.
04:52Have you been there before?
04:53No, I haven't been to New York.
04:54Yes, you've been to New York.
04:55Yeah, but...
04:56It's important to do this now.
04:57Yeah.
04:58It's important to do this now and to find something.
05:02To meet someone.
05:04If I find a man who says he doesn't want to have any contact, or if I find a stone, or if I hope I will have contact with parts of my family,
05:19then I will not be the girl who has never met his father.
05:36After a 13 hours long flight, they landed in Austin, which is the head of the state of Texas.
05:42Austin is the heart of music in the south, and here has many music bands built.
05:48Here you know that Paul has studied at one of USA's biggest universities, and therefore started searching here.
05:55This is the information we have now, so you can find your father.
05:58We have his name, Paul Persons.
06:01He has been with in a group, Transcontinental Cowboys.
06:05It was when he was with the group that you clicked with your mother.
06:08Yeah, the same way.
06:10Under the years have Lina-Maria and her mother done several attempts to find Paul,
06:14but for Giaves.
06:16It's the end they have left in the letters he sent from Paris for 27 years ago.
06:21In the last letter he wrote that he will go back to Texas,
06:24and he gives a new address to his mother, Best Persons.
06:28You wrote a letter, or your mother wrote a letter?
06:30My mother wrote a letter that started to come back.
06:32They started to come back, so it's a way to go back to that address.
06:37He studied here in Austin, at University of Texas.
06:40He studied at the University of Texas.
06:41He studied at the University of Texas.
06:42He studied at the University of Texas.
06:43Yes.
06:44What we're going to do is take us to the University of Texas, here in Austin,
06:49and see if we can get information about him from there.
06:53So do we.
06:55The University of Texas
07:04My hope is that they can and will help us to leave the address he was on when he studied,
07:12in the beginning of the 80s, so it was very long since.
07:16Universitetet visar sig bli en besvikelse.
07:19Här råder filmförbud, och man lämnar inte ut några som helst uppgifter om de studerande.
07:25Bummer, fast det var ju inte helt ovänt att vi inte skulle få någon information om din pappa.
07:28Nej, vi fick tips.
07:29Men hon var snäll.
07:30Offentlighetsprincipen är inte samma i USA som hemma i Sverige.
07:35Och det var en återvändsgränd, tyvärr.
07:39Det var tur att vi behövde prata om att han var musiker också.
07:42Att vi inte bara gick på det här svenska spåret.
07:44Så hon rekommenderar att vi tar oss till Music Office.
07:47Music Office.
07:48Som hon beskrev, att där finns det information om band som har hållit till här i Texas-området.
07:54Så Transcontinental Cowboys, förhoppningsvis, har de information där.
07:58Det finns ju en chans.
08:00Okej.
08:14Hello.
08:15Yes, please.
08:17Music Office.
08:18Music Office.
08:19Do we have a point now?
08:21No, we don't have a point now.
08:23Okay, wait one moment.
08:24Thanks.
08:25I need to speak to someone in your office.
08:28They should be there shortly.
08:29Oh great, thank you very much.
08:31Thanks.
08:32Hi.
08:33Hi.
08:34Hans, Swedish TV.
08:35Hans, how are you?
08:36I'm fine, thank you.
08:37Hi.
08:38Hi.
08:39Hi.
08:40Casey, welcome.
08:43Casey from Texas Music Office bjuder upp dem till sitt kontor.
08:45Han berättar att de har ett stort jobb.
08:46Skrev de egen musik i bandet eller var det så här...?
08:47Eh, det var nu både och.
08:48Både covers och annat.
08:49För mamma, hon nynnar på någonting som jag tyckte jag kände igen.
08:51Men hon visste inte vad det var i det.
08:53Det var ju några år sedan.
08:54Så...
08:55Mm.
08:56Mm.
08:57Hi.
08:58Hi.
08:59Hans, Swedish TV.
09:00Hans, how are you?
09:01I'm fine, thank you.
09:02Lina Maria.
09:03Hi.
09:04Casey, welcome.
09:06Casey från Texas Music Office bjuder upp dem till sitt kontor.
09:10Han berättar att de har ett stort musikregister som innehåller över 8000 akter.
09:18Please have a seat now.
09:19Thanks.
09:20Tell me please.
09:21What is the name of the band that you're looking for?
09:24Transcontinental Cowboys.
09:27Have you heard of them?
09:28Yeah, I have actually heard of them.
09:29You have?
09:30So, I'm gonna put in...
09:33You said Transcontinental, right?
09:35Mm-hmm.
09:37Transcendence.
09:39Good.
09:42I have very little information on this band.
09:44Okay.
09:45Adressen var ju en av ledtrådarna som vi hade.
09:48Do you know...
09:49Do you know where...
09:50Paul is today?
09:51I have no idea.
09:52Han börjar ju bli till åren.
09:54Plötsligt så finns det inte någon dag imorgon längre.
09:57Finns det när det är ljusen?
09:58Ja.
09:59Man vet inte, kanske är det redan för sen?
10:00Lina Maria är i Austin i USA och letar efter sin pappa, Paul.
10:10Just nu är hon på Texas Music Office där hon hoppas på att få information om hans band, Transcontinental Cowboys.
10:18Vi har 8,302.
10:25So, I'm gonna put in...
10:27You said Transcontinental, right?
10:29Mm-hmm.
10:30Transcendence.
10:31There they are.
10:32Good.
10:33They're in here.
10:34You are quick.
10:35You have one contact.
10:36No.
10:37I have previous band, Marfa Lights.
10:38I have very little information on this band.
10:39Okay.
10:40But this is who you're supposed to contact if you want to book them.
10:41Correct.
10:42And unfortunately, I don't have a phone number for them.
10:43Okay.
10:44But that's a good...
10:45Yeah.
10:46Do you want me to write this down?
10:47Address?
10:48Yeah, that would be great.
10:49I think with this little information as we have...
10:52Oh, that's great.
10:53...the chance of...
10:54The chances are great that he is in the band.
10:56Because if you...
10:57Usually bands with managers are making money.
10:58This is great.
10:59I think with this little information as we have...
11:01Oh, that's great.
11:02The chances are great that he is in the band.
11:05Because if you...
11:06Usually bands with managers are making money.
11:09This is great.
11:11I got the name of Jeff Ragsdale.
11:15And I remember that my mother had talked about a Jeff who was with in Paris.
11:20And if it was the same person...
11:22So I hope that he would have the answers...
11:25And that he could lead us up to...
11:27It's three miles away...
11:29According to this.
11:30Oh, you got a map as well?
11:31Right.
11:32Oh, that's great.
11:33Thank you very, very much.
11:34It's my pleasure.
11:35Nice system.
11:36I think...
11:37You're very kind.
11:38I think with the information you have now...
11:40You should be able to find at least somebody who knows him.
11:44Okay.
11:49Wow.
11:50It's a good feeling.
11:52Yeah.
11:53It can be the Jeff that my mother...
11:55Have talked about.
11:56Yeah.
11:57We go to him and see what he has for something to tell.
11:59That's what we do.
12:00We do.
12:01We do.
12:07I think he has got to deal with his friends over the years.
12:13He has a daughter in Sweden.
12:18and that at all they have to have lied to them.
12:22What do they do when they stand up at your door?
12:24That he knows that it's going to happen.
12:34Jeff. Jeff Ragsdale.
12:37He looks like a musician.
12:39It's good.
12:44Jeff. Jeff Ragsdale.
12:46Hi, Hans, got your name and address from the music office.
12:50Oh, really?
12:50Yeah, and we're looking for a person,
12:53former member of the band Transcontinental Cowboys.
12:57Wow.
12:58Do you know about that band?
12:59Yes, I do. It's been a long time.
13:02You're also a former member?
13:04Yeah, a long time ago.
13:06And the person we're looking for is Paul Persons.
13:11Yeah, yeah.
13:13You know him?
13:13Yeah, he was my roommate in Paris and we knew each other a little bit here.
13:21He met a girl in Sweden?
13:23I don't know.
13:25You don't know?
13:25Yeah.
13:26I know he met someone in Paris who's from Sweden.
13:31Yes. Hello, my name is Lina.
13:35Lina?
13:35He met my mother in Paris.
13:38So now you're looking for your dad?
13:40Yes.
13:42Paul Persons.
13:45Wow.
13:46Do you know where Paul is today?
13:51No, I don't.
13:52Now we kind of had a little bit of a falling out.
13:57Did you know about Lina?
14:00No.
14:01You didn't.
14:02No.
14:03But you have met my mother, Ingmarie.
14:06Yeah?
14:07Yeah, because she remembered you.
14:11Wow.
14:12Do you want to come in?
14:13Yeah, it's a little clone.
14:16It is.
14:19This chair is taken.
14:20Yeah, she's already got her place.
14:24Okay.
14:25So how long was it since you met Paul?
14:28Well, I knew him here in Austin.
14:32We, but not well.
14:34We kind of played a little bit of guitar together.
14:37Okay.
14:37We decided to go to Paris to play guitar in the street.
14:42You know, maybe 25 or 30 people are gathering around.
14:45And it was like a really good crowd.
14:47And this girl walks up and she says, can I pass the frisbee around?
14:57We used the frisbee for, instead of a hat, for money.
15:01She said she walked around with the hat.
15:03Yes, yeah, yeah.
15:04And we said, sure.
15:05I mean, we'd only been playing 10 minutes and we already have somebody working for us.
15:10Which is, that was cool.
15:11And she introduced herself as Ingmarie.
15:17And she had blonde hair and braids, is what I remember real clearly.
15:23I can imagine.
15:24Yeah, for the next four or five days, we all kind of hung out together.
15:32And yeah, it was pretty cool.
15:35Yes, he had a very clear memory of the days.
15:41So, mamma hung with the bandit in Paris.
15:43Which surprised me.
15:46Ingmarie and Paul writing a lazy day in Paris.
15:52It was so cool to see the pictures he had taken to Paris.
15:57Very strange experience.
15:59So, this was...
16:00Was he a good singer?
16:01Yeah, he's fabulous.
16:03I was the guitar player.
16:05And Paul was definitely the singer.
16:07And, you know, I got a recording of the Transcontinental.
16:11I don't know, Cowboys, if you'd like to hear it.
16:13Yes.
16:14Yeah?
16:15Han hade enorm koll på alla sina brylar.
16:20So, is he singing on this?
16:21Yes, he is.
16:22Well, now the devil came down to Georgia and he was looking for a soul to steal.
16:30He was in a bind because he was way behind, but he was willing to make a deal.
16:33Well, they came across his young boy, saw it on a fiddle and playing it hot.
16:37Well, the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, boah, let me tell you what.
16:40Han sjöng bra.
16:41Han sjöng väldigt bra.
16:43Och jag gillar musiken och jag svängde liksom.
16:46Men jag hade nog föreställt mig något helt annat.
16:49Jaha, är det så han låter?
16:52I was wondering what he was like.
16:55Seems like a funny guy from the pictures.
16:57Right.
16:57I mean, really talented.
16:59You know, I mean, he was really interested in science.
17:03I remember one time we were trying to figure out how to design a flying saucer, a UFO.
17:10And so we kind of, we spent days, you know, okay, I'm going to have my flying saucer, you do yours.
17:14Which one was the best?
17:17Oh, I think mine was the best, obviously.
17:20But, yeah, he was a great guy.
17:27Thank you very much.
17:29Welcome back to Texas.
17:32I mean, you are a Texan.
17:33Yes.
17:33Yeah, at least part of you.
17:36Thank you very much.
17:36Bye.
17:41Bye.
17:42Bye-bye.
17:43Goodbye.
17:44En skiva.
17:46Ja.
17:46Hur kändes det där?
17:48Det var ju dödshäftigt, alltså.
17:51Vad bra han sjöng.
17:52Stolt jag är.
17:53De letråden vi hade med din pappa, de hade blivit som en återvändsgränd här nu med Jeff.
18:00Men om vi nu försöker med resten av familjen, vi har ju en adress som är din farmor.
18:06Bess.
18:06Ja.
18:08Och så vi tar oss till Houston och förhoppningsvis att vi kan hitta någonting där.
18:13Resemusik.
18:14Transcontinental Cowboys.
18:18Det var en period när jag var ög på mamma för att hon inte hade gjort mer.
18:47För att hålla kontakten med honom.
18:50Hon har ju erkänt att hon har bränt lite material då.
18:53Hon har haft flera bilder och flera brev än de som finns nu.
18:57Så det har jag väl varit förbannad på henne för.
19:00Och det är ju lättare att vara förbannad på någon som är där liksom.
19:03Ett tag när hon var i tornaåren så var hon arg på mig för att jag inte ville gifta mig med Paul.
19:16När jag berättade det, hur det här hade varit, då var hon arg på mig och tyckte det var mitt fel.
19:25Och det är kanske inte så konstigt för jag fanns ju där helt fysiskt och mig kunde hon ju bli arg på.
19:30Jag har funderat på om det har någon betydelse att Lina-Maria har blivit bortvald av sin pappa.
19:40Även om det inte är personen, Lina-Maria, som har blivit bortvald så har han ändå valt att inte träffa henne.
19:50Och om det kan ha någon betydelse i hennes val av yrke.
19:53Det skulle vara jättesråligt om han inte ville träffa henne.
20:00Om hon väl hittar honom.
20:02Men det är en risk hon tar.
20:07Och då får man ju förhålla sig till det.
20:11Och gå vidare utifrån det.
20:12Efter en tre timmar lång bilfärd är de framme i Houston.
20:25Där man hoppas på att hitta adressen till Pauls mamma, Best Persons.
20:34Okej.
20:358.50. Fred Needle.
20:37Ja, adressen var ju en av ledtrådarna som vi hade.
20:40Vi hade ju inte mycket mer än det att gå på.
20:43Vad var det för något nummer?
20:46290.
20:4968 till 91.
20:50Ja, konstigt.
20:56Private.
20:57Det var så lite ting.
20:58När vi inte hittade adressen så tänkte jag ju å ena sidan.
21:03Jaha, det var därför breven kom tillbaka.
21:05Å andra sidan hittade han bara på en adress för att han inte ville att mamma skulle kunna ta kontakt.
21:11Och sen kunde det ju ha varit så enkelt som att en siffra blev fel av misstag.
21:16Och att det är därför som han aldrig fick våra brev.
21:22Så det var lite...
21:23Det var många tankar då.
21:25Ja, men det kanske inte är konstigt då att breven har stött sig tillbaka då.
21:29Nej.
21:30Sen hur fel adressen är.
21:31Men fel har ju en uppenbarlig varhet.
21:33Jag tänkte på det. Du har ju pratat om det tidigare om Bess.
21:37Din mamma berättade ju om hennes tennis.
21:39Precis. Så hon måste ha spelat en hel del och de borde...
21:43Att hon var framgångsrikt hennes spelare.
21:45Eftersom vi visste att Bess Hösens hade spelat tennis så undersökte vi vilka tennisklubbar som fanns i närheten.
21:54Och en av de största i Houston låg inte särskilt långt därifrån.
21:58Så det kändes som en stor möjlighet att vi kunde hitta någonting om henne i deras register.
22:03Jag tittar på lite information om en person som en tennisklubbar.
22:25Bess Persons.
22:31Oh, för Ross Persons?
22:32Han är faktiskt min...
22:33Bess Persons.
22:35Oh, hans bror?
22:37Bess är en män.
22:39Bess Persons.
22:40Bess Persons.
22:41Hey, Thomas, vet du om Bess Persons?
22:44Jag, jag gör.
22:45Hi.
22:45Hur är du? Jag heter Thomas Cook.
22:46Jag heter Hans.
22:47Hans?
22:48Hej, Lina Maria.
22:49Nice to meet you.
22:50Nice to meet you.
22:51Yes, Bess är Ross Persons mother.
22:55Och hon är en excellent tennisplare.
22:57Hon är inte längre med oss.
22:59Vi visste ju inte hur pass stor hon var.
23:01Men när vi kom fram till tennisklubben så visste de direkt vilken Bess Persons det handlade om.
23:09Are you looking for Ross?
23:11We're looking for the family, someone in the family.
23:14Okay.
23:15Yes.
23:16Ross, unfortunately, is on the West Coast playing at tennis tournament.
23:21Uh-huh.
23:22Okay.
23:22He has a daughter, actually, that lives here as well.
23:25What's her name?
23:26Michelle.
23:27Michelle, okay.
23:29Would you like me to get her information?
23:32If you have a telephone number or address.
23:34Address, okay.
23:35Can you hang on a second?
23:36Yes, of course.
23:37Okay.
23:39Do you have an address for Michelle?
24:06You have?
24:07Yes.
24:07Okay.
24:08And that's the daughter of?
24:09That's the daughter of Ross Persons.
24:11So this is Bess's grandchild?
24:13Bess's grandchild, yes.
24:15This should give you a leave.
24:16Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:17So, yeah, thank you very much for your help.
24:20You're welcome.
24:20When we went to the address that we had received, to Ross Persons daughter, so I started to think that the family, people knew to them, and they had a good feeling.
24:38So I started to feel like, oh, they started to talk here, and they laid together two and two, and it can be very difficult for them.
24:45Känns det bra?
24:52Bra kanske att överdriva.
25:0024, 5, 2, 2.
25:02Vänta där en stund.
25:03Får jag kolla.
25:05Att det är okej.
25:06Hans gick upp och knackade på, och jag väntade vid bilen.
25:15Det kändes som en evighet.
25:19Jag har sånt riktigt hennes reaktion, men sen tittade hon ut och de vinkade dit mig, och det var ju en lättnad.
25:31Gina Maria.
25:33Hej.
25:33Vill du hälsa på din kusin?
25:39Hej.
25:40You're Michelle?
25:41Yes.
25:42Lina Maria.
25:43Are you my family?
25:44Probably.
25:46Hej.
25:46Hej.
25:48Kom in, kom in.
25:49It's so good to meet you.
25:50Kom in, please.
25:51Hon verkar uppriktigt glatt överraskad, men hon bjöd in mig, och det var ju så mycket att fråga, och så mycket.
25:59Det var väldigt, väldigt skönt.
26:03My goodness, I don't know which day, are you okay?
26:07Yes, I am, I'm a bit too.
26:08This must be very emotional.
26:10It is.
26:13You're so pretty.
26:14You're too.
26:17Wow, I only have one cousin before, so.
26:20Well, actually, yeah, me too.
26:22I don't have any fathers or sisters, and until, like, two years ago, I didn't have any cousins at all.
26:28So, this is, it's amazing.
26:31Wow, well, you know, Paul's not in Houston.
26:49He's not in Houston?
26:50No.
26:50He hasn't lived here for a long time.
26:52Okay.
26:53You know, he, I guess he was living in Europe, and he came back, and I don't, I don't know if he ever lived here again, or he just went on, but, um,
27:01he's lived various places over the years, and he, he hasn't lived here in, like, 25, 30 years, no.
27:07But do you have contact with him?
27:10Right now, I know that he is in Telluride, which is a town in Colorado.
27:17Um, so, I, I think he's working with a theater company there right now.
27:23Okay.
27:24Yeah.
27:24So, I think he's done some acting, so, obviously, that's what, you know, he has to do with them there.
27:29And, um, he, he's a musician too.
27:32He plays the guitar, and I remember him bringing a fiddle when I was little.
27:37I always wanted to play the violin because of that.
27:39It's so much, it's so much, it's so much, it's so much inblandated, all the time.
27:43What I was afraid of was that I would put it a bit too much, that it would be a bit sudden and that I would just clamp on it.
27:50That you would want to take it a bit more careful.
27:52That this family is not ready to go up and everyone knows that I am.
27:58Of course.
27:59And Paul, is he at the theater in Telluride?
28:03I understand he is working with a theater company and my understanding is that it is pretty small.
28:09Yeah, Telluride, yeah.
28:10So if you go there, and he knows so many people there.
28:13But if you just ask or if you go, have some good luck with that.
28:18Nice meeting you. Thank you very much.
28:20Thank you so much.
28:22You're very welcome. Thank you for coming.
28:24Just now, I am so excited to have met my cousin.
28:29But in the morning, it's important, I will be very nervous.
28:34I think.
28:35On the way to Telluride in Colorado.
28:40I hope that it is the last time he has been here.
28:52I hope that he is there, that he is not out to be able to travel anywhere.
28:56I feel more ready than I have ever been.
29:00I don't know how I will react.
29:04It's just so that I just throw myself out of it and see what happens.
29:09Telluride is a famous skid place in Colorado.
29:25And here, in the way, will be able to work on a theater.
29:30You mentioned earlier that you were worried about his life.
29:36Yes, but you don't know how their life looks like.
29:40Yeah.
29:42So...
29:43It's a little strange, I think, but you are completely unskyld in this.
29:46Yeah.
29:47In the narrative that your mother and father started.
29:50Yeah.
29:51Yeah.
29:52And hopefully you see it in a narrative with a happy ending.
29:54Yeah.
29:55And you know what, in a little bit.
29:56Yeah.
29:57And we know that it will start well.
29:59That the next chapter will start well.
30:02Yeah.
30:03Newt chapter, Newtry.
30:04Känns det så?
30:05Ja.
30:06Du slår ner.
30:07Du slår ner här.
30:08Och så går jag och letar efter din pappa.
30:10Mm.
30:11Så kommer jag strax tillbaka.
30:12Okej.
30:13Adios.
30:22Det kändes så bra när jag träffade min kusin Michelle.
30:25Och hon gav uttryck för att allting skulle lösa sig till det bästa.
30:33Det är klart att jag fortfarande var nervös för att han inte skulle vilja träffa mig, men det kändes ändå som att...
30:44Hi.
30:45Ja.
30:46I'm looking for Paul Persons.
30:49So, yeah.
30:50This is the theater.
30:51He should be here.
30:52Paul.
30:53Juhu.
30:55Juhu.
30:56Juhu.
30:57Juhu.
30:58Juhu.
30:59Juhu.
31:00Juhu.
31:01Juhu.
31:02Juhu.
31:04Jag tror jag ville dra ut på ögonblicket lite grann.
31:08Den där första anblicken får man bara en gång.
31:13Hello.
31:15Lina Maria har rest kors och tvärs över USA för att försöka hitta sin pappa Paul.
31:25Nu är hon förhoppningsvis på sista hållplatsen Telluride och väntar på Hans som ska besöka pappans arbetsplats.
31:45Det var väldigt, väldigt nervöst men någonstans så lyckades jag trycka på någon pausknapp och faktiskt ta det ganska lugnt och tänka att har jag väntat så här länge så gör det ingenting, att det dröjer lite grann och det ska nog bli bra liksom.
32:05Så ja, det här är ett teater, vi ska vara här.
32:09Paul.
32:11Ja!
32:12Hur är det här?
32:13Paul Persons.
32:15Ja.
32:15Hi.
32:17Jag heter Hans.
32:18Jag heter Hans.
32:201979, i Paris, har du träffat en kvinna, Ingmarie?
32:25Det är verkligen, ja.
32:27Och en år senare, har du träffat en dörr med honom?
32:32Det är det jag hörde på en gång.
32:35Du har aldrig träffat Lina?
32:36Nej, jag har aldrig träffat honom.
32:38Jag har aldrig träffat honom.
32:43Jag har aldrig träffat honom.
32:45Jag har aldrig träffat honom.
32:49Jag har aldrig träffat honom.
32:49Even before I knew that she was going to be born, I felt her.
32:58I felt her every day since then.
33:01I guess you're going to tell her yourself, because she's outside here, and she really wants to meet you.
33:07You want to meet her?
33:08She's here.
33:08Yeah.
33:09I sent her in, okay?
33:11Okay.
33:12Okay, Paul.
33:12Okay.
33:16Okay.
33:16Okay.
33:17Okay.
33:19Come, följ mig mig.
33:26Ska du få reda på hur det gick.
33:29Så kom Hans tillbaka och visste en massa som inte jag visste.
33:35Var det en lång vänta?
33:40Här inne på Sheridan Opera House så träffade jag din pappa alldeles nyss.
33:44Han andas ungefär som du kan jag lätt säga.
33:49Och han väntar på dig nu, uppe på teatern.
33:53Okej.
33:57Varsågod.
33:59Fortsättning på ditt liv nu då.
34:01Känner du dig redo?
34:02Nej.
34:03Nej.
34:04Inte tuff.
34:05Men jag gör det ändå.
34:13Jag tror jag ville dra ut på ögonblicket lite grann.
34:16Det ändå har väntat så länge.
34:19Den där första anblicken får man bara en gång.
34:23Jag vill att det ska vara perfekt.
34:34Och sen kom jag inn på teatern och som tur var så så kändes det rätt så lett.
34:41Det var en första lite trevande kram, men det kändes bra.
35:11Jag vet inte om han såg ut som jag hade förväntat mig.
35:36Jag blir inte besviken i alla fall.
35:41Jag tror inte han blir besviken heller.
35:45Och det är alltid bra, Brian.
35:47Wow, this is what you look like.
35:52Like you.
35:55But not as good.
35:58Det var en jävla lättnad, var det.
36:01Det blev inte så konstigt som det kunde ha blivit.
36:04Och det kändes, men gud vad bra, vad kul.
36:09Nu, nu, där är vi.
36:12Ja, men jag vet bara att du har spelat den gitarren.
36:17Nej, jag har slutat spelat den gitarren en lång tid tid.
36:23Jag har gjort andra saker.
36:25Teater, jag spelar en liten violin nu.
36:27Okej.
36:28Ja, jag vet en svensk ljud.
36:30Hvilken?
36:34Jag vet en av någon som jag.
36:38När jag tittade på Lena, jag vet en av någon som jag som jag.
36:43Du vet av min band.
36:45De älskar, älskar, älskar.
36:47Vi träffade Jeff.
36:48Du träffade Jeff.
36:49Du träffade Jeff.
36:49Ja, jag har även hört en rekordning.
36:51Oh, really?
36:52Oh, gosh.
36:53Det var väldigt bra.
36:53Jag vet inte om vi har gjort en riktigt bra en rekordning.
36:57Och nu vi pratar om att ha en rekordning.
37:00Och jag tänkte att vi skulle ha det här.
37:03Oh.
37:04Så jag tänkte att jag frågade.
37:05Och det har ändratat mycket.
37:08Ja, jag tänkte att du inte har någon kontrol.
37:14Du tycker att hon är bättre av utan dig.
37:17Ja, jag känner att det var en abandon.
37:22Men jag tror att det var en abandon som hade hänt.
37:26Jag tror att jag försökte att ha en rekordning.
37:29Because everybody, her mother, my family, my father, my own needs, it may not have been the right thing to do.
37:38I don't know.
37:40Jag undrar varför han aldrig har dykt upp.
37:44Varför han inte var, hur han kunde motstå nyfikenheten.
37:48Och det har jag fortfarande inte fått svar på.
37:50Men jag har förstått hans livssituation, hur den var då.
37:54Och börjat berätta allting som har hänt i hans liv.
38:00Varför han kanske inte har kunnat stanna kvar och ta sitt ansvar.
38:05Jag har ju bara en liten, liten del av den stora bilden ännu.
38:17Jag tycker att han är väldigt sympatisk.
38:22Spännande.
38:22Jag tycker att han älskar att berätta historier och jag älskar historier.
38:27Så det är lite mysigt då.
38:30Well, I always used to say that I was an Indian princess.
38:41And that's true.
38:42That's true.
38:43According to the genetic tests that I have taken, you could be Alaskan Indian, or you could be Comanche, you could be Cherokee, or you could be...
38:54I think today they call them the non-Saman Indians in the area where there was Pocahontas, it was around Jamestown.
39:02I think it's about time that you teach me to use a bow and an arrow.
39:07So, well, I'll make one for you.
39:11I do make them as a hobby.
39:13You know, so...
39:14Yeah, det viktigaste just nu är att jag är så lättad över att han verkar vara en trevlig och spännande person.
39:25Och att jag är nyfiken på allting som han har att berätta, och han verkar väldigt villig att dela med sig.
39:33Wow.
39:37We're pretty high up here.
39:40Ah, that's where I had the scene of my famous bear encounter.
39:44Åh, ja.
39:45Jag ser fram emot att åka hit igen och att bli en del av hans liv och vardagen.
39:54I think you have more chin than I do.
39:57Maybe.
39:57Well, my mother has two, but...
39:59Yeah.
39:59Jag kan förstå att min mamma föll för den här vallen.
40:04Jag är egentligen en öppen och äventyrslyst en människa som har varit med om mycket och verkar kasta sig ut det mesta.
40:14När jag först såg din mamma såg jag att hon hade den mest lössta fjärna som jag har sett.
40:18Really?
40:19Ja, jag vet inte om jag har sagt honom det.
40:23Men...
40:23Jag ska säga honom det.
40:25Och honom.
40:26Jag har fått en kusin, en jämn gammal kusin.
40:29Jag har fått ett kusinbarn.
40:31Jag har fått en onkel.
40:34Och sist men inte minst, jag har fått en tappa.
40:36Jag har fått en kusinbarn.
40:38Jag har fått en kusinbarn.
40:39Jag har fått en kusinbarn.
40:44I have one little small gova for a day.
40:55This is a Hawaiian fishing hook.
41:01It's made out of bone.
41:03In Hawaii, parents give it to their child to protect them when they're not together.
41:10Here, can I put it on?
41:11Yeah.
41:12Okay.
41:12I'm happy.
41:13I'm overjoyed.
41:16I feel so happy that I'm coming together, that we're coming together.
41:25It's the most incredible thing.
41:27Also, this is a charm.
41:29I hope that it continues to be this.
41:34I have no doubt that it will in the future.
41:37It'll just be a great joy.
41:39I have something for you.
41:42But you can't open it until we're gone.
41:48Can I hold it up to the sun and look at it?
41:50Look at it.
41:52You can see there is some bus money inside.
41:55So when you come to Sweden, you just take the bus to my place.
42:00Okay?
42:00But I will hit you.
42:01Okay.
42:10Okay.
42:11Okay.
42:13See you again soon.
42:15I don't want to say goodbye, I want to say goodbye.
42:20Of course, it can be a bit difficult to travel back when I came here.
42:34I will come back and I will hold contact with them all.
42:42This trip has been a lot because it's not over when I come home.
42:53It's just the start of the shot.
42:57I don't feel angry, but I'm a little discouraged because I don't want to contact him.
43:15He's not allowed by law to give any information.
43:18Can you tell us if he's alive or dead?
43:21No.
43:22The best thing would be that he's not living in life.
43:25There's a little risk that you stop here.
43:27Yes.
43:28It was our last way.
43:30Let's see what this gives us now.
43:32Maybe we'll have a little hole before we go down.
43:34Do you remember this man?
43:36I stayed and it was say day farm.
43:39Are you Casa umu?
43:41No.
43:42No.
43:44Anyja drama?
43:46No.
43:47No.
43:49No.
43:50Anyja.
43:52Anyja.
