Marble

Sofie Rødtnes Markussen, Denmark, 2022

24 min.DK/Short fiction

Safa is a preschooler in the kindergarten “The Little Moon House”. She lives with her mother and father – a middle class family - in the city of Randers in Denmark. One day she is approached by Ludvig (5) who has something to show her, something that is of great importance to him. Hidden within a hollow tree. Here she discovers his treasures of dinosaurs, empty chocolate wrapping, a broken key, and other things. Ludvig presents Safa with a choice; they can share the hollow tree and its treasure if she brings something as well. Safa is excited about the blooming new friendship, and she knows what to steal - the beautiful marble ball from the cabinet. Later that day the caretaker Martin mentions that things are missing from the kindergarten – toys and more specific, the big dinosaurs. Martin asks the children to look after it, and explains that stealing is wrong. Safa gets desperate; has she done something wrong? Is she supposed to rat Ludvig out? And what will Ludvig do if she does?
