If you knew how much I love you

Bessie & Jan, the dim lights in the church, the men's black clothes, the late groom, everything hints that this will be an unblessed romance.

Madness comes in love, and life turns pale. Except for the joy of being together, all reality is forgotten. In the cold north of Scotland, a girl as pure as a baby, a pagan from an offshore oil field - a tall blond man.

The camera's perspective is shaky and curious, as if a toddler was observing the world.

"If you know how much I love you, you might get upset." People say Bessie is fragile and needs to be held in the palm of her hand. When the marriage was concluded, Jan was her only support in this world, her whole life. he knows. But he didn't know that she would sacrifice everything for him, even her life didn't matter. Only God, who is watching us, has mercy on our sins of love.
