2
00:00:16,630 --> 00:00:18,222
Africa of the great explorers,

3
00:00:18,298 --> 00:00:21,665
the huge hunting and adventure ground
adored by generations of children,

4
00:00:21,735 --> 00:00:24,533
gone forever.

5
00:00:25,205 --> 00:00:26,505
We said goodbye
from that old Africa,

6
00:00:26,506 --> 00:00:29,100
swept away and destroyed

7
00:00:29,176 --> 00:00:30,939
of fantastic speed
of progress.

8
00:00:31,011 --> 00:00:34,242
The devastation, the carnage,
the massacres we witnessed,

9
00:00:34,314 --> 00:00:36,475
I belong to a new Africa...

10
00:00:36,550 --> 00:00:39,849
one that, if
rise from its own ruins

11
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,755
to become more modern, may
rational, more functional, more conscious,

12
00:00:42,756 --> 00:00:44,417
it will be unrecognizable.

13
00:00:44,491 --> 00:00:47,193
On the other hand, the world is in a
race to better times.

14
00:00:47,194 --> 00:00:50,789
The new America rose from the ashes of a few
white men, of all red skins

15
00:00:50,864 --> 00:00:53,025
and the bones of
million buffaloes.

16
00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:55,034
New Africa will rise again

17
00:00:55,102 --> 00:00:57,969
on the graves of several men
whites, of millions of black people

18
00:00:58,038 --> 00:01:01,735
and on those huge cemeteries of those who
were once his game reserves.

19
00:01:02,409 --> 00:01:05,606
The effort is so modern and
recently that there is no room for

20
00:01:05,679 --> 00:01:06,846
to discuss this
work on a moral level.

21
00:01:06,847 --> 00:01:08,824
The purpose of this film is
just to say goodbye

22
00:01:08,825 --> 00:01:10,447
from Africa
old, the dying one

23
00:01:10,450 --> 00:01:13,647
and to entrust to history
the documentation of his agony.

24
00:08:05,131 --> 00:08:07,361
The era of compromise has begun.

25
00:08:07,433 --> 00:08:10,027
For the first time, the gardens
Ocean Road Palace

26
00:08:10,103 --> 00:08:14,130
are open to the new African bourgeoisie
for the big farewell party.

27
00:08:14,207 --> 00:08:18,371
Old and new masters are looking
on the paths of imitation and symbiosis

28
00:08:18,444 --> 00:08:21,413
in the desire to
find something in common.

29
00:09:18,471 --> 00:09:20,735
And so it ends
two centuries of history.

30
00:09:21,241 --> 00:09:23,368
The last representative of
Her Britannic Majesties

31
00:09:23,443 --> 00:09:26,901
leaves the stage gracefully, in
that atmosphere of festive cordiality

32
00:09:26,980 --> 00:09:30,300
which always accompanies the departure of one
guest who overstayed.

33
00:09:30,516 --> 00:09:33,917
In this distant immensity,
the wails of the sirens and the cannon volleys

34
00:09:33,987 --> 00:09:36,387
I'm not more than a
child's birthday party.

35
00:09:36,456 --> 00:09:39,016
Europe is in a hurry to
leave on tiptoe,

36
00:09:39,092 --> 00:09:40,544
even though, having
all things considered

37
00:09:40,556 --> 00:09:42,493
things, gave a lot
more than he took.

38
00:09:42,562 --> 00:09:44,821
Europe, the continent
who nursed Africa,

39
00:09:44,822 --> 00:09:47,727
he can't handle it anymore
with this big black baby

40
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,894
who grew too fast, a
chosen to keep bad company

41
00:09:50,970 --> 00:09:53,837
and, moreover, hates him
because of his white skin.

42
00:09:53,907 --> 00:09:56,740
And so, it is abandoned,
still naughty and immature,

43
00:09:56,809 --> 00:09:59,676
the very moment he has
Europe's greatest need.

44
00:10:22,368 --> 00:10:26,361
Africa is emerging from its long Age
Medium and exchange the spear for the rifle.

45
00:10:26,439 --> 00:10:28,464
The soldiers of the
famous African regiment,

46
00:10:28,541 --> 00:10:31,510
consisting of white men who
I have lived in the country for three generations,

47
00:10:31,577 --> 00:10:33,670
lay down their weapons
without military honors

48
00:10:33,746 --> 00:10:37,648
and they trust that they entrusted the defense
homes and families in good hands.

49
00:10:50,129 --> 00:10:52,461
The first ones are happening
spontaneous demonstrations,

50
00:10:52,532 --> 00:10:54,625
controlled by us
African police force.

51
00:10:54,701 --> 00:10:56,860
Imported products
from African countries that

52
00:10:56,872 --> 00:10:58,899
I'm not yet
independent, they are destroyed.

53
00:10:58,972 --> 00:11:01,463
The first to be destroyed are the eggs
Portuguese colonialists.

54
00:11:14,687 --> 00:11:16,985
Then it's your turn
oranges from South Africa.

55
00:11:32,905 --> 00:11:34,532
And South African beer.

56
00:12:16,616 --> 00:12:18,468
Once the excitement
popular is unleashed,

57
00:12:18,469 --> 00:12:20,882
the new police must
prepare to temper it.

58
00:12:20,953 --> 00:12:24,787
The first elections in history
the African continent are imminent.

59
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,518
The crowd goes with
impatience towards the polling stations.

60
00:12:57,590 --> 00:13:00,616
Everyone is afraid of not reaching too much
late and be left empty-handed.

61
00:13:00,693 --> 00:13:05,494
For this big day of Uhuru,
each party promised its voters

62
00:13:05,565 --> 00:13:09,831
as a prize land, animals,
the houses and cars of the whites who remained.

63
00:13:19,579 --> 00:13:23,606
In the highlands of Kenya,
property of white settlers,

64
00:13:23,683 --> 00:13:25,776
on the big and green plateau,
which for 100 years

65
00:13:25,852 --> 00:13:28,082
was the fortress
rural aristocracy,

66
00:13:28,154 --> 00:13:29,485
Uhuru is late arriving.

67
00:14:51,737 --> 00:14:54,535
After 100 years of work,
the ancient African landscape

68
00:14:54,607 --> 00:14:56,666
he transformed
in a Scottish landscape.

69
00:14:56,742 --> 00:15:00,143
Even hunting is organized
of foxes, even though there are no foxes here.

70
00:15:00,213 --> 00:15:02,773
All it takes is like a black man
to drag a piece (fox) after him

71
00:15:02,848 --> 00:15:06,168
who just arrived by plane from England,
to leave a scent trail for the dogs.

72
00:16:27,566 --> 00:16:30,399
The fox is an animal
pest that does not exist in Africa.

73
00:16:30,469 --> 00:16:32,801
If white men
they want to hunt her

74
00:16:32,872 --> 00:16:35,568
he has to teach someone
to act like one.

75
00:16:35,641 --> 00:16:39,475
But the fox is a cunning prey and
it should never be underestimated.

76
00:17:28,094 --> 00:17:31,257
Honorable court, in
pursuant to articles 7 and 19a

77
00:17:31,330 --> 00:17:36,029
from the Law regarding the suppression of activities
crimes of Mau Mau, from April 4, 1953,

78
00:17:36,102 --> 00:17:38,195
request that Jeroke Camau,

79
00:17:38,270 --> 00:17:42,229
accused of arson, theft, robbery,
attempted murder and aggravated murder,

80
00:17:42,308 --> 00:17:43,969
to receive the maximum penalty.

81
00:18:28,954 --> 00:18:34,756
These weapons, made
by him and his accomplices,

82
00:18:34,827 --> 00:18:38,285
were used to commit
the crimes he confessed to

83
00:18:38,364 --> 00:18:39,524
fully during the investigation.

84
00:18:54,914 --> 00:18:58,748
On the night of April 6, 1961,

85
00:18:58,818 --> 00:19:02,219
Rashidi Singhida entered
in Aberdare Point Farm,

86
00:19:02,288 --> 00:19:05,587
the property of the citizen
British John Fletcher,

87
00:19:05,658 --> 00:19:10,288
where the defendant strangled
the guard, on Josephi Nathaeli.

88
00:19:11,263 --> 00:19:14,130
The defendant's second victim
was miss elizabeth reagan,

89
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:15,997
the farmer's sister-in-law,

90
00:19:16,068 --> 00:19:20,300
killed by a gunshot fired by
Singida through the window of her room.

91
00:19:20,940 --> 00:19:23,154
Mr. Fletcher ran away
on the outside stairs,

92
00:19:23,155 --> 00:19:25,468
where he was hit by
more gunfire

93
00:19:25,544 --> 00:19:26,704
which crushed his legs.

94
00:19:27,580 --> 00:19:29,571
He crawled into the house

95
00:19:29,648 --> 00:19:32,276
in an attempt to
protect his wife, Mrs. Jane

96
00:19:32,351 --> 00:19:35,343
and the two daughters, Lois
and Mary, aged 15 and 18,

97
00:19:35,421 --> 00:19:38,322
who had been looking for
shelter under a table.

98
00:19:58,143 --> 00:20:01,579
The bodies of the three women have
were found headless and limbless.

99
00:20:01,647 --> 00:20:04,275
Mr. Fletcher's body,
former naval officer

100
00:20:04,350 --> 00:20:07,478
he was found stabbed to death by 72
sometimes with a panga (machete).

101
00:20:07,553 --> 00:20:09,248
Accused Rashidi Singhida,

102
00:20:09,321 --> 00:20:12,381
confirm the transcript of the investigation
which you already signed?

103
00:20:14,827 --> 00:20:16,727
We take the liberty of
to point out, your honor,

104
00:20:16,795 --> 00:20:19,395
that the defendant knows English
and does not need an interpreter.

105
00:20:52,798 --> 00:20:55,323
I will tell you the facts
that resulted from the investigation.

106
00:20:55,401 --> 00:20:58,666
For nine years, you were the nanny
to Memsa Fosset's three children:

107
00:20:58,737 --> 00:21:01,638
Richard, two, Mary,
four and Victor, nine.

108
00:21:01,707 --> 00:21:04,267
You have known them since birth.
You watched them play.

109
00:21:04,343 --> 00:21:05,823
You ate and you have
slept with them.

110
00:21:06,345 --> 00:21:09,280
On the night of February 6,
you opened a window

111
00:21:09,348 --> 00:21:11,416
to leave the Kimathis
and his band to enter the house.

112
00:21:11,417 --> 00:21:14,477
Juana Fosset was snatched again
his throat was cut on the big green table.

113
00:21:14,553 --> 00:21:16,612
Mother and children have
ran to the door.

114
00:21:16,689 --> 00:21:18,987
Kimathi caught them
and cut them into pieces

115
00:21:19,058 --> 00:21:21,117
right on the doorstep, in your presence.

116
00:21:49,088 --> 00:21:50,953
The Trial of Jomo Kanari,

117
00:21:51,023 --> 00:21:53,548
self-appointed general of
"Land Freedom Army"

118
00:21:53,626 --> 00:21:57,426
escaped from Voy prison, where
he was serving 30 years in prison

119
00:21:57,496 --> 00:21:59,589
for theft, burglary,
assault and triple murder.

120
00:22:01,367 --> 00:22:03,858
The investigation established

121
00:22:03,936 --> 00:22:06,437
that the defendant organized, under oath,
more than 100 Mau Mau members,

122
00:22:06,438 --> 00:22:08,633
who tortured animals
domestic and wild

123
00:22:08,707 --> 00:22:11,574
and committed obscenities, together
with the crime of cannibalism.

124
00:22:30,129 --> 00:22:33,360
In addition, the accused
together with his accomplices,

125
00:22:33,432 --> 00:22:35,525
they broke the tendons
of over 400 cattle,

126
00:22:35,601 --> 00:22:37,967
who then had to
be slaughtered by farmers.

127
00:23:00,125 --> 00:23:03,356
Irrefutable proof of guilt
the defendant was provided

128
00:23:03,429 --> 00:23:04,754
by one of
the main victims

129
00:23:04,755 --> 00:23:07,131
of acts of vandalism of
of Canary, Mr. Wordsworth,

130
00:23:07,132 --> 00:23:09,794
which together
with his son they went

131
00:23:09,868 --> 00:23:11,269
in the footsteps of the accused time
of 72 days and 72 nights.

132
00:23:11,270 --> 00:23:15,434
In Narok, Kanari was
captured and handed over to the Magadi police.

133
00:23:18,377 --> 00:23:20,311
Therefore, I request that
the accused to be found guilty

134
00:23:20,379 --> 00:23:23,405
and sentenced to punishment
maximum provided by the special law.

135
00:23:59,485 --> 00:24:01,282
Land for the brave Mau Mau!

136
00:24:06,191 --> 00:24:08,352
Amnesty for all
Mau Mau members!

137
00:24:08,427 --> 00:24:10,691
Kenyatta proclaimed them
national heroes.

138
00:24:10,763 --> 00:24:13,459
Reasoning: For
Uhuru's triumph,

139
00:24:13,532 --> 00:24:15,557
wanted by blacks and denied by whites,

140
00:24:15,634 --> 00:24:19,434
they killed 27 whites
and 5000 blacks.

141
00:24:28,180 --> 00:24:32,048
Kenyatta announces that, in addition
the undying gratitude of the nation,

142
00:24:32,117 --> 00:24:36,349
Mau Mau will get the lands
and the homes of the white settlers,

143
00:24:36,421 --> 00:24:38,581
in the places where they are
carried out combat actions.

144
00:24:45,130 --> 00:24:47,428
They eat white people
the file to come out.

145
00:24:47,499 --> 00:24:50,730
The windows of real estate agencies
are covered with sales offers.

146
00:24:50,803 --> 00:24:53,431
Payment terms
light seems absurd

147
00:24:53,505 --> 00:24:56,065
to anyone who doesn't know how to
savor the bitter irony.

148
00:24:56,141 --> 00:24:57,972
Installments up to 99 years.

149
00:24:58,043 --> 00:25:03,071
Dark irony in the graphic composition,
desperate irony in the text of the advertisements.

150
00:25:57,002 --> 00:26:00,369
Everything that belongs to the colonists
white is for sale.

151
00:26:00,439 --> 00:26:03,031
Those who have time call
to Indian merchants

152
00:26:03,032 --> 00:26:05,399
to organize
an auction in the garden

153
00:26:05,477 --> 00:26:11,438
in which everything is accumulated
three generations cannot be transported.

154
00:26:11,516 --> 00:26:13,040
Indians do a good business.

155
00:26:13,118 --> 00:26:15,416
The new black bourgeoisie
spares no expense.

156
00:26:15,487 --> 00:26:18,183
The old house is quickly emptied.

157
00:26:18,257 --> 00:26:20,623
The family watches from the sidelines.

158
00:28:09,668 --> 00:28:13,729
Confiscated houses, empty and
silent, they await their new owners.

159
00:30:22,767 --> 00:30:24,962
Throughout the territory
immense of East Africa,

160
00:30:25,036 --> 00:30:27,664
English colonial law allows them
white people to build a house

161
00:30:27,739 --> 00:30:31,539
and to acquire
properties here and only here.

162
00:30:31,610 --> 00:30:35,102
In two centuries, the new colonists
they turned it into a green oasis.

163
00:30:35,180 --> 00:30:37,003
Africans have
learned to admire him,

164
00:30:37,004 --> 00:30:40,208
then to want it and, in
finally, to claim it.

165
00:31:37,642 --> 00:31:40,406
When the Golden Age
ended, the Age of the Plate begins.

166
00:31:40,478 --> 00:31:44,039
In the highlands, where
150 whites lived yesterday

167
00:31:44,115 --> 00:31:46,784
In the highlands, where 150 lived yesterday
of whites, 10,000 blacks live today.

168
00:31:46,785 --> 00:31:49,948
Agrarian reform ignores
the arid immensity of the low plains,

169
00:31:50,021 --> 00:31:53,149
to express the new
spirit of Uhuru only here,

170
00:31:53,225 --> 00:31:55,750
on these fertile estates
newly confiscated.

171
00:31:55,827 --> 00:32:00,127
But overall, maybe
distribute only one acre per family.

172
00:32:00,198 --> 00:32:03,224
So this land that earlier
it was perhaps too much for too few,

173
00:32:03,301 --> 00:32:05,565
it becomes too little
for too many.

174
00:32:25,123 --> 00:32:27,318
Uhuru has no more
nothing to conquer.

175
00:32:27,392 --> 00:32:30,919
Only the dead remained
to occupy a bit of land.

176
00:32:30,996 --> 00:32:33,157
Now they must too
to be released.

177
00:32:33,231 --> 00:32:35,665
The Indians sold that too.

178
00:33:27,385 --> 00:33:29,209
J. B. Johnson a
was the most famous

179
00:33:29,221 --> 00:33:31,515
horse breeder of
races from the highlands.

180
00:33:31,589 --> 00:33:35,218
He was killed, by Kimathi of
Mau Mau, on the steps of his farm.

181
00:33:35,293 --> 00:33:37,090
These were his stables.

182
00:33:37,162 --> 00:33:39,255
Before handing them over
new owners,

183
00:33:39,331 --> 00:33:43,165
his sons drove away the horses and
they released them into the savannah.

184
00:34:02,420 --> 00:34:06,516
Six months later, all the horses
the "old earth" live in freedom.

185
00:34:06,591 --> 00:34:09,992
But when the Africans surprise her
flock at the mouth of a narrow valley,

186
00:34:10,061 --> 00:34:13,394
the horses are caught inside by the shouts and
by the sound of old gas canisters.

187
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,347
For Africans, the horse
it is the symbol of the white man.

188
00:35:44,422 --> 00:35:46,720
Like whites, horses refuse
contact with other species

189
00:35:46,791 --> 00:35:48,826
and avoids contagion
mixing with other species,

190
00:35:48,827 --> 00:35:51,462
surrounding itself with a void which
it stretches from him to the horizon.

191
00:35:51,463 --> 00:35:53,658
For Africans,
the horse is physically racist.

192
00:35:53,731 --> 00:35:56,632
He is afraid of black and
refuses to be ridden by him.

193
00:35:56,701 --> 00:35:58,999
Without the presence of whites,
his back is bare.

194
00:35:59,070 --> 00:36:02,471
Its natural architecture is
mutilated, like an equestrian monument

195
00:36:02,540 --> 00:36:05,737
from which the hero was overthrown
by a sudden act of violence.

196
00:36:05,810 --> 00:36:08,506
Just like the white man, the horse
it is noble. She has delicate skin.

197
00:36:08,580 --> 00:36:10,275
It is sophisticated in
food choice.

198
00:36:10,348 --> 00:36:12,043
Like the white man, he is shy.

199
00:36:12,116 --> 00:36:13,981
Even a bit of
noise will scare him.

200
00:36:14,052 --> 00:36:17,886
Just like the white man, the horse is
useless It is good only to be eaten.

201
00:36:33,938 --> 00:36:35,963
The storms are returning
in South Africa.

202
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,531
They revived the carriages
they came 400 years ago

203
00:36:38,610 --> 00:36:40,510
in search of a new homeland.

204
00:36:40,578 --> 00:36:42,307
He could have chosen
boats or planes,

205
00:36:42,380 --> 00:36:44,620
as the English did
to return to Europe.

206
00:36:44,682 --> 00:36:47,310
Instead, with
controversial intentions,

207
00:36:47,385 --> 00:36:50,821
they loaded their families and
goods in old carts,

208
00:36:50,889 --> 00:36:52,427
from their epic
oscillating and now se

209
00:36:52,439 --> 00:36:54,325
follows the course of
1000 miles of history.

210
00:36:54,392 --> 00:36:56,383
Demonstration is hard
and puts them to the test,

211
00:36:56,461 --> 00:36:58,725
same as the whole
destiny of the boers.

212
00:36:58,796 --> 00:37:01,196
Its meaning is
tragic and precise.

213
00:37:01,266 --> 00:37:05,202
The Long African Adventure does not
it's over It starts here.

214
00:40:02,013 --> 00:40:05,779
The old laws are no more
valid. The new ones are still being written.

215
00:40:05,850 --> 00:40:07,611
There is no one who
to protect the savanna from

216
00:40:07,623 --> 00:40:09,479
vandals or hunters
in search of meat.

217
00:40:09,554 --> 00:40:12,887
For those who want to plunder Africa
as much as I can, as quickly as possible,

218
00:40:12,957 --> 00:40:14,686
the right time has arrived.

219
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:37,762
If it was before
absolutely forbidden

220
00:41:37,763 --> 00:41:40,438
for the Land Rovers to leave
roads or markings,

221
00:41:40,511 --> 00:41:43,969
now they enter the savannah with impunity
and moves chaotically, back and forth

222
00:41:44,048 --> 00:41:47,415
among herds of
elephants, to scare them,

223
00:41:47,485 --> 00:41:49,544
to separate them, scatter them.

224
00:41:49,620 --> 00:41:53,579
Here is the fastest way to
get your hands on an elephant today.

225
00:41:53,658 --> 00:41:56,855
You are slowly exasperating the mother elephant
slowly You provoke a reaction of anger.

226
00:41:56,928 --> 00:42:00,056
Then you make it move
as much time as possible

227
00:42:00,131 --> 00:42:02,224
giving him the illusion that he
let it get to you

228
00:42:02,300 --> 00:42:04,598
and when the poor beast no longer
can keep going

229
00:42:04,669 --> 00:42:07,832
it will be too far from the baby
them to be able to defend him.

230
00:42:34,131 --> 00:42:37,191
The price of a baby elephant
it's about $3000...

231
00:42:37,268 --> 00:42:39,307
assuming of course that
he arrives safely

232
00:42:39,308 --> 00:42:41,308
healthy, in the garden
the zoo that ordered it.

233
00:42:41,339 --> 00:42:43,000
The average is one in ten.

234
00:42:43,074 --> 00:42:46,168
The others do not survive
without their mother's milk.

235
00:42:46,244 --> 00:42:48,576
But today, Africa
it is an infinite reserve.

236
00:42:48,646 --> 00:42:51,046
Where you can't go
on foot, ride a jeep

237
00:42:51,115 --> 00:42:53,583
and where you can not go with
a jeep, go by helicopter.

238
00:45:17,028 --> 00:45:19,763
Of all the types of safari on
that a hunter can choose today,

239
00:45:19,764 --> 00:45:21,197
this is the fastest.

240
00:45:21,265 --> 00:45:24,359
It is called "safari la
elephants, in a quarter of an hour".

241
00:45:24,435 --> 00:45:27,598
The helicopter takes off from the terrace
the hotel and leaves the hunter here.

242
00:45:27,671 --> 00:45:31,038
Then the others go to find him
the elephant and chase him towards him.

243
00:46:04,708 --> 00:46:06,387
the hunter shoots,
usually stupid

244
00:46:06,388 --> 00:46:09,645
but with a sufficient caliber of
big enough to take down a dinosaur.

245
00:46:09,713 --> 00:46:11,647
Then finish him off from a distance.

246
00:46:11,715 --> 00:46:15,583
He has enough time for a photo
souvenir, after which he leaves.

247
00:46:58,696 --> 00:47:01,164
In the absence of transport
modern and powerful weapons,

248
00:47:01,232 --> 00:47:03,132
Africans are satisfied
with the numbers.

249
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,091
Up to 10,000 of
they gather together

250
00:47:05,092 --> 00:47:07,569
and surround an area as well
as wide as a big city.

251
00:47:07,638 --> 00:47:09,299
Then I tighten the vise.

252
00:51:18,856 --> 00:51:21,518
Beyond the high line
drawn by the Zambezi,

253
00:51:21,592 --> 00:51:26,427
The Wildlife Society has established its headquarters
in an old abandoned farm.

254
00:51:26,497 --> 00:51:30,957
It is a large organization, supported in
principal of Anglo-Saxon private capital

255
00:51:31,034 --> 00:51:32,451
and do everything
maybe to save

256
00:51:32,452 --> 00:51:34,800
what can be saved
in the midst of so many disorders.

257
00:51:34,872 --> 00:51:37,272
Every message received
or sent by radio,

258
00:51:37,341 --> 00:51:40,367
every movement of the needles on
large table in the operating room,

259
00:51:40,444 --> 00:51:43,936
corresponds to a massive displacement
of animals in a remote area.

260
00:51:44,014 --> 00:51:49,111
The purpose of so many feverish activities is to
left, at least, some of the animals

261
00:51:49,186 --> 00:51:51,051
from the most areas
wanted by poachers

262
00:51:51,121 --> 00:51:54,056
and to transport them in the territories
safer and better controlled.

263
00:51:54,124 --> 00:51:57,582
After millennia of silence
fascinating, mysterious habits,

264
00:51:57,661 --> 00:52:00,789
secret paths, de
obeying the orders of nature,

265
00:52:00,864 --> 00:52:05,324
man imposed tourism on the African fauna
wild by train, bus, helicopter,

266
00:52:05,402 --> 00:52:07,563
by plane and even by balloon.

267
00:52:12,910 --> 00:52:16,311
Operation Crocodile assumes
transfer of all reptiles from the park,

268
00:52:16,380 --> 00:52:18,915
away from the mouth of the river
Rovuma, which is overrun by poachers.

269
00:52:18,916 --> 00:52:22,875
Traps are laid during
reflux and marked with colored balloons.

270
00:53:27,584 --> 00:53:29,381
It is estimated that in these waters,

271
00:53:29,453 --> 00:53:32,388
in the last six months, they were
killed over 20,000 crocodiles.

272
00:53:32,456 --> 00:53:34,616
The operation in progress, a
managed to save 82 reptiles.

273
00:53:35,359 --> 00:53:38,760
They will reach calmer waters after
who slept 300 miles.

274
00:54:20,537 --> 00:54:22,345
Animals injured by poachers

275
00:54:22,346 --> 00:54:25,600
are taken care of by the bank of
blood of the Wildlife Society.

276
00:54:25,676 --> 00:54:28,615
Teams of veterinarians and
medical assistants perform tests,

277
00:54:28,616 --> 00:54:29,908
administer medication,

278
00:54:29,980 --> 00:54:32,778
check the temperature
the giant wounded elephants

279
00:54:32,849 --> 00:54:35,613
and keep them happy with a few
kilograms of tranquilizers.

280
00:55:14,791 --> 00:55:18,192
On February 18, 1964, a
Wildlife Society helicopter

281
00:55:18,261 --> 00:55:22,163
who oversaw an area on
the coast of Kenya and the Tanarive area,

282
00:55:22,232 --> 00:55:25,167
found the carcasses
of 750 elephants.

283
00:55:25,235 --> 00:55:27,465
The poachers were
surprised by those in the helicopter

284
00:55:27,537 --> 00:55:30,165
while they were still cutting
the tusks of the slain elephants.

285
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:32,333
They ran and hid
among the grass piles.

286
00:55:32,409 --> 00:55:36,436
It was the first inspection operation
after more than a year of total anarchy.

287
00:55:36,513 --> 00:55:38,777
The governments of Kenya,
Tanganyika and Uganda,

288
00:55:38,849 --> 00:55:41,716
following serious disturbances
and the rebellion of the Armed Forces,

289
00:55:41,785 --> 00:55:44,652
they requested urgently
the return of the English troops.

290
00:55:44,721 --> 00:55:46,951
The old laws that had fallen,
they came back into force.

291
00:55:47,024 --> 00:55:50,892
The former Anglo-Saxon administration resumed
control over hunting parties.

292
00:55:50,961 --> 00:55:53,725
Then there was a
short order interval,

293
00:55:53,797 --> 00:55:56,561
which however stopped
after only one month.

294
00:56:12,516 --> 00:56:15,383
But the level of damage
suffered by fauna is shocking.

295
00:56:16,053 --> 00:56:19,716
In a first round, the police
captured 410 poachers.

296
00:56:19,790 --> 00:56:22,759
The great massacre stops.

297
00:56:22,826 --> 00:56:25,090
The police discover hundreds
of ivory tusks and furs,

298
00:56:25,162 --> 00:56:28,290
hidden in the bushes and
dry riverbeds.

299
00:56:28,365 --> 00:56:31,425
Poaching gangs
they used grenades

300
00:56:31,501 --> 00:56:34,766
to kill over 300
of young elephants without tusks

301
00:56:34,838 --> 00:56:39,207
just to cut their tails
from which they make bracelets and necklaces

302
00:56:39,276 --> 00:56:41,156
which they sell to tourists
for a few pennies.

303
00:56:44,514 --> 00:56:49,042
Large tents set up by the police,
there are 82 tons of confiscated tusks.

304
00:56:49,119 --> 00:56:51,986
In reality the number is
and more frightening,

305
00:56:52,055 --> 00:56:54,490
if it is considered that only
one fifth of the slaughtered animals

306
00:56:54,491 --> 00:56:56,982
are usually found by
game wardens patrols.

307
00:56:57,060 --> 00:56:58,322
In a valley of Semliki,

308
00:56:58,395 --> 00:57:03,230
the police found 2800 skins of
zebra, leopard, gazelle, lion and cheetah,

309
00:57:03,300 --> 00:57:05,666
which the poachers have
left to dry in the sun.

310
00:57:05,736 --> 00:57:08,500
The young forest is full
of casings that spoil the air,

311
00:57:08,572 --> 00:57:11,564
which the vandals, alarmed, did not
they still had time to collect them.

312
00:57:11,641 --> 00:57:14,043
In ancient breeding grounds,
who are the richest in the world

313
00:57:14,044 --> 00:57:18,174
columns of sour smoke rise
now the flames also crackle in the pyres.

314
00:57:32,095 --> 00:57:35,758
While the police are chasing them
on poachers, other patrols

315
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:37,399
scour the savannah for
to help injured animals.

316
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,597
The initiative, based in
clearly with good intentions,

317
00:57:40,670 --> 00:57:43,605
it is certainly not adequate
for the amount of damage and carnage.

318
00:57:43,673 --> 00:57:45,504
Africa is affected
of a hundred evils

319
00:57:45,575 --> 00:57:48,237
and no one fights
energetically their cause.

320
00:57:48,311 --> 00:57:51,678
Only a few, here and there, do everything
possible to eliminate unwanted effects.

321
01:00:33,076 --> 01:00:36,102
There is nothing to do. Not us
they will give us permission to land.

322
01:00:36,179 --> 01:00:39,114
We decide to try one anyway
old airstrip further north.

323
01:00:39,182 --> 01:00:42,674
Ahead of us is our twin plane,
rented by three German journalists.

324
01:00:42,752 --> 01:00:45,118
I flew all the way here
together, from Tanganyika.

325
01:00:45,188 --> 01:00:46,951
Neither they, nor us, no
we want to go back

326
01:00:47,023 --> 01:00:48,718
without further ado
first everything possible

327
01:00:48,792 --> 01:00:51,989
to document the most
terrible genocide in African history.

328
01:00:52,062 --> 01:00:53,461
It all started last night,

329
01:00:53,530 --> 01:00:56,328
when an African named
Okello, backed by Russia,

330
01:00:56,399 --> 01:00:58,367
overthrew the sultan's government,

331
01:00:58,435 --> 01:01:00,803
over a thousand years old and
calling himself a revolutionary general,

332
01:01:00,804 --> 01:01:03,898
he ordered the massacre of the whole
Arab populations of Zanzibar.

333
01:01:31,534 --> 01:01:33,365
All communications
were interrupted.

334
01:01:33,436 --> 01:01:35,427
The radio is muted again
airports are closed.

335
01:01:35,505 --> 01:01:37,673
The only way to know anything
about what is happening in Zanzibar

336
01:01:37,674 --> 01:01:41,132
is to go there personally, how
so do we and our German colleagues

337
01:01:41,211 --> 01:01:44,531
which we glimpse for a moment, on
as they are taken from there by the insurgents.

338
01:01:56,226 --> 01:01:58,091
Today is the day
better to skip it.

339
01:01:58,161 --> 01:02:00,095
That cloud of smoke over there,
rising from the runway,

340
01:02:00,096 --> 01:02:02,121
it's the plane
burning Germans.

341
01:02:02,198 --> 01:02:04,723
At least we know not
there is no one on board

342
01:02:13,209 --> 01:02:16,235
We try again a day later,
on January 19, by helicopter.

343
01:02:16,746 --> 01:02:20,045
We waive a red flag
to confuse the rebels.

344
01:02:20,817 --> 01:02:22,614
They direct us
towards the interior of the island,

345
01:02:22,685 --> 01:02:26,212
where apparently during
5,000 Arabs were killed that night.

346
01:02:30,593 --> 01:02:34,324
Okello distributed 850 guns, which
they mysteriously arrived on the island,

347
01:02:34,397 --> 01:02:36,456
which Africans do not know
to use them, yet.

348
01:02:36,533 --> 01:02:37,866
The season has opened
of hunting Arabs.

349
01:02:37,867 --> 01:02:40,381
Propaganda says
the new generation that the Arabs

350
01:02:40,393 --> 01:02:43,100
they are cursed
slave traders,

351
01:02:43,173 --> 01:02:46,301
who sell Africans to merchants
of slaves along the coast.

352
01:02:46,376 --> 01:02:50,540
Of course, he failed to say that all
these happened ten centuries ago.

353
01:03:01,157 --> 01:03:03,591
This footage is the only one
existing documentation

354
01:03:03,660 --> 01:03:08,222
about what happened in
Zanzibar between 18 and 20 January 1964.

355
01:03:08,298 --> 01:03:11,893
Whole villages destroyed,
trucks full of corpses,

356
01:03:11,968 --> 01:03:14,801
uncomfortable testimonies and
embarrassing for everyone...

357
01:03:14,871 --> 01:03:17,362
for those in Africa today,
who spread false promises,

358
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,169
feeding a new one
type of African racism

359
01:03:19,242 --> 01:03:22,541
and, for those who drop out
quickly Africa itself

360
01:03:22,612 --> 01:03:24,910
in false modesty a
ancient colonialism,

361
01:03:24,981 --> 01:03:28,314
a new flooded Africa
of filth and blood.

362
01:03:28,384 --> 01:03:29,976
Look at these pictures.

363
01:03:30,053 --> 01:03:31,953
Look at them with pity.

364
01:03:32,021 --> 01:03:34,148
But above
all, look at them with shame.

365
01:03:47,770 --> 01:03:51,536
Endless lines of prisoners who
they were marching towards the place of the massacre.

366
01:04:06,723 --> 01:04:09,920
Hundreds of Arabs motionless,
waiting for his death

367
01:04:09,993 --> 01:04:11,516
wrap up in
their white sheets,

368
01:04:11,517 --> 01:04:13,759
already more similar to
ghosts than with people.

369
01:04:18,468 --> 01:04:21,904
Muslim cemeteries have transformed
in fields of imminent extermination.

370
01:04:22,639 --> 01:04:25,267
The women and children were trembling
at gunpoint.

371
01:04:35,518 --> 01:04:38,453
Huge mass graves,
already half full of corpses.

372
01:04:57,807 --> 01:05:02,369
Perhaps the most ruthless mass execution
from the entire macabre anthology of death.

373
01:05:23,199 --> 01:05:26,032
The exodus to the sea
of entire villages.

374
01:05:36,746 --> 01:05:40,648
Desperate boarding on
the boats stuck in the sand at low tide.

375
01:05:43,853 --> 01:05:46,947
The hopeless run
to an impossible salvation.

376
01:06:01,537 --> 01:06:04,005
Then the next day...

377
01:07:41,104 --> 01:07:42,637
These were the parks
national that

378
01:07:42,638 --> 01:07:45,300
mystical love
Anglo-Saxon for animals

379
01:07:45,375 --> 01:07:47,775
and written regulations
with the fervor of an inquisitor,

380
01:07:47,844 --> 01:07:51,371
they had turned them into sanctuaries
from the real life of nature.

381
01:07:51,447 --> 01:07:55,178
The man, who in the text of the English law
that protect the national parks

382
01:07:55,251 --> 01:07:57,091
was classified among
vermin,

383
01:07:57,153 --> 01:08:00,486
he didn't even have the right
to set foot on this land.

384
01:08:00,556 --> 01:08:03,753
He could walk around
around, in absolute silence,

385
01:08:03,826 --> 01:08:05,760
under watchful eyes
of the guard

386
01:08:05,828 --> 01:08:08,729
and in full compliance with
a code that does not tolerate ignorance.

387
01:09:36,919 --> 01:09:38,682
The biggest
part of ancient Africa,

388
01:09:38,754 --> 01:09:42,190
Africa of the great navigators and a
the great geographical discoveries,

389
01:09:42,258 --> 01:09:44,726
wakes up from a
sleep for four centuries.

390
01:09:44,794 --> 01:09:48,457
Over the fortresses scattered by Vasco de
The range along the coast of Mozambique,

391
01:09:48,531 --> 01:09:51,227
nothing happened
except for time.

392
01:09:52,034 --> 01:09:56,403
The glory of past centuries resists
decrepit against new times:

393
01:09:56,472 --> 01:09:59,873
Ruined battlements,
ruined bastions

394
01:09:59,942 --> 01:10:01,637
of bronze cannons
silent for centuries

395
01:10:01,711 --> 01:10:04,441
and an act of faith in
humility and resignation.

396
01:11:16,452 --> 01:11:19,819
Just on the other side of the walls,
in the invisible guerrilla camps,

397
01:11:19,889 --> 01:11:23,222
lies the new reality yet
covered by morning fog

398
01:11:23,292 --> 01:11:27,422
through which the soldiers move
hesitantly, like ghosts from the past.

399
01:11:35,771 --> 01:11:39,207
Wherever it is present
man, nature is silent.

400
01:11:39,275 --> 01:11:44,110
The silence of animals and birds is
the unequivocal sign of human presence.

401
01:11:44,180 --> 01:11:47,308
Angolan rebels avoid
the woods too quiet.

402
01:11:47,383 --> 01:11:51,183
I know that the Portuguese patrols
they are inside them, waiting.

403
01:11:55,424 --> 01:11:59,986
3, 2, 1, go!

404
01:12:42,538 --> 01:12:44,506
Intelligence works
almost always.

405
01:12:44,573 --> 01:12:48,737
The animals and the guerrillas hurry
when calling the magnetic strip

406
01:12:48,811 --> 01:12:52,713
and in a moment, the forest
it is full of life and death.

407
01:14:03,853 --> 01:14:07,345
This is the destiny of a people
who wanted to ignore skin color.

408
01:14:07,423 --> 01:14:09,948
This is Portugal.
This is Portugal.

409
01:14:10,025 --> 01:14:14,758
Brancos y pretos as todos portugues.
White or black, we are all Portuguese.

410
01:14:14,830 --> 01:14:16,889
But the rebels in Angola
I don't agree.

411
01:14:16,966 --> 01:14:19,594
This is Africa.
Only blacks are Africans.

412
01:14:19,668 --> 01:14:23,468
Black and white, brancos y pretos,
wart en blank, blanches et noires,

413
01:14:23,539 --> 01:14:26,667
here is a dilemma that is
present, current, universal,

414
01:14:26,742 --> 01:14:28,502
being more and more
much colored in red.

415
01:14:49,765 --> 01:14:51,756
January, 1964.

416
01:14:51,834 --> 01:14:54,098
Watusi, follow
of revolted Bantu,

417
01:14:54,170 --> 01:14:57,162
I run to the border with
Uganda, carrying the wounded.

418
01:14:57,239 --> 01:15:00,731
The Bantu war against the Watusi did not
it is something other than racial persecution

419
01:15:00,810 --> 01:15:03,973
promoted for political purposes
by China's presence and propaganda

420
01:15:04,046 --> 01:15:05,741
in Rwanda and Burundi.

421
01:15:05,815 --> 01:15:09,307
In just two months, Bantu have
massacred 18,000 Watusi.

422
01:15:09,385 --> 01:15:12,320
The bushes hide the proof yet
fresh from a ferocious horror.

423
01:15:12,388 --> 01:15:16,791
On the banks of the Kwoni River, 54
of amputated hands were found

424
01:15:16,859 --> 01:15:19,699
under the trunk of a still wet tree
of blood, used as a cutting hub.

425
01:15:19,762 --> 01:15:24,062
The border police caught them in
blatantly and arrested 25 Bantu guerrillas.

426
01:15:24,133 --> 01:15:26,829
But apart from that,
no government, black or white,

427
01:15:26,902 --> 01:15:29,234
he didn't lift a finger
to stop the bloodbath.

428
01:15:44,420 --> 01:15:48,447
Meanwhile, the waters of the Kagera
carrying thousands of corpses downstream.

429
01:15:48,524 --> 01:15:51,015
Whole days, fishing
it's macabre and abundant,

430
01:15:51,093 --> 01:15:54,153
performed with a lazy diligence of
to the residents along the river.

431
01:15:54,230 --> 01:15:56,425
The feeling of
compassion does not exist here.

432
01:15:56,498 --> 01:16:00,264
What there is is a good source of
drinking water that must be kept clean.

433
01:16:00,336 --> 01:16:04,329
Because the river is life.
Because life kills, not death.

434
01:17:50,713 --> 01:17:54,376
Ten days and nights of the 1st exodus
along the roads of Uganda.

435
01:17:54,450 --> 01:17:57,385
The Watusi were a people of
shepherds, with a history of a thousand years.

436
01:17:57,453 --> 01:18:00,718
A people of survivors who
keep running into the unknown

437
01:18:00,789 --> 01:18:02,557
shocked and unable to
understand what is happening.

438
01:18:02,558 --> 01:18:04,492
It is a people
which no longer exists.

439
01:20:07,583 --> 01:20:10,711
That's how it must have been
Noah's earthly paradise.

440
01:20:10,786 --> 01:20:13,363
When he heard the roar
away from the thunder,

441
01:20:13,364 --> 01:20:15,655
he started to
build the great ark.

442
01:20:15,724 --> 01:20:18,852
The same ancient silence,
the same sovereign harmony,

443
01:20:18,927 --> 01:20:22,363
the same divine balance that
man has not yet managed to disturb him.

444
01:20:22,431 --> 01:20:25,229
Image and likeness
that earthly paradise

445
01:20:25,300 --> 01:20:29,259
destroyed by the same sudden anger
of a vengeful God.

446
01:21:10,379 --> 01:21:13,542
It is the dawn of the day of
February 25, 1964.

447
01:21:13,615 --> 01:21:16,106
After they annihilated the rebellion
African armed forces,

448
01:21:16,185 --> 01:21:17,914
English troops
they left again.

449
01:21:17,986 --> 01:21:21,717
The old British Protection Act
fauna expired a second time,

450
01:21:21,790 --> 01:21:23,491
so governments
Africans decide to open

451
01:21:23,492 --> 01:21:25,351
even the parks
national for hunting.

452
01:21:25,427 --> 01:21:27,418
Confront those
more severe measures,

453
01:21:27,496 --> 01:21:30,727
black and white gamekeepers,
now employed by African authorities,

454
01:21:30,799 --> 01:21:32,249
they have no choice but to listen

455
01:21:32,250 --> 01:21:34,860
and organize the details
the "picking" operation

456
01:21:34,937 --> 01:21:37,565
or "livestock harvesting".

457
01:21:37,639 --> 01:21:40,540
From now on, once
per week on Friday

458
01:21:40,609 --> 01:21:44,136
the harvesting operation will supply
local markets with fresh meat.

459
01:21:44,213 --> 01:21:47,944
For the first time in history
the former refuge of the African fauna,

460
01:21:48,016 --> 01:21:50,246
in the sanctuaries
virgins of nature,

461
01:21:50,319 --> 01:21:53,516
where it is considered sacrilege
even to speak loudly,

462
01:21:53,589 --> 01:21:55,784
people come in armed
with hunting rifles.

463
01:25:50,959 --> 01:25:55,658
The number of hippos harvested
in a single day it rises to 160.

464
01:25:55,730 --> 01:25:59,222
The park authorities sell them
butchers for 300 shillings each,

465
01:25:59,301 --> 01:26:00,233
or about $45.

466
01:26:00,302 --> 01:26:03,965
Number of animals to kill
is set each time

467
01:26:04,039 --> 01:26:06,974
depending on the requirements
of the market, 100, 200, 1000,

468
01:26:07,042 --> 01:26:10,273
but none more, none more
a little, so as not to disturb the prices.

469
01:26:10,345 --> 01:26:13,974
The rest are left alive
for the next day, completely calm,

470
01:26:14,049 --> 01:26:16,711
yawning right next to
river where, until yesterday,

471
01:26:16,785 --> 01:26:18,719
tourists were coming
to photograph them.

472
01:26:18,787 --> 01:26:21,085
Killing them is
a child's game.

473
01:26:21,156 --> 01:26:23,657
You just have to choose, like
the targets in a firing range.

474
01:26:23,658 --> 01:26:26,718
Babies, adults, males,
females and pregnant females...

475
01:26:26,795 --> 01:26:28,903
Because this is the one
richest park in the world,

476
01:26:28,904 --> 01:26:30,925
and the hippos will be
always numerous

477
01:26:30,999 --> 01:26:33,661
until the day when
it will no longer exist.

478
01:26:40,509 --> 01:26:44,172
The demand for 45 elephants was,
also accomplished without difficulty.

479
01:26:44,246 --> 01:26:45,941
Now they are butchered
on the spot

480
01:26:46,014 --> 01:26:49,279
to simplify transportation.

481
01:26:49,351 --> 01:26:51,318
Of the butchers, not even
one was not injured.

482
01:26:51,319 --> 01:26:53,075
The elephants, which
the hunters described them

483
01:26:53,087 --> 01:26:54,982
as being the most ferocious
animals from africa,

484
01:26:55,056 --> 01:26:57,547
in reality, it is left
slaughtered like goats

485
01:26:57,626 --> 01:27:00,494
regardless of whether they are male
miserable toothache sufferers

486
01:27:00,495 --> 01:27:02,895
or the legendary ones
pregnant females.

487
01:27:02,964 --> 01:27:06,297
The truth is that throughout Africa there are
only one truly ferocious animal:

488
01:27:06,368 --> 01:27:07,368
The man.

489
01:27:27,956 --> 01:27:31,221
Wounded animals that want
die at the edge of the parks

490
01:27:31,293 --> 01:27:34,785
they must be destroyed much faster
than eagles would normally do.

491
01:27:34,863 --> 01:27:37,457
Tourists don't need to know and,
above all, not to see.

492
01:28:00,388 --> 01:28:04,757
And now we will give you a photo
of the 1964 massacre,

493
01:28:04,826 --> 01:28:08,455
with the richest deposit of
hippopotamus meat in the world.

494
01:28:08,530 --> 01:28:11,658
Don't worry.
Look over there in the water.

495
01:28:11,733 --> 01:28:14,361
A few remained
for next friday.

496
01:28:31,753 --> 01:28:33,015
And here, here, another.

497
01:28:33,088 --> 01:28:37,286
It looks long and hard, may
chose that today is friday,

498
01:28:37,359 --> 01:28:39,793
and it's friday
in any season.

499
01:28:39,861 --> 01:28:43,297
It is the most recent photo
souvenir from our trip

500
01:28:43,365 --> 01:28:46,459
through what were the refuges
safe of African fauna,

501
01:28:46,534 --> 01:28:50,402
the old hunting reserves of
centuries, the virgin sanctuaries of nature,

502
01:28:50,472 --> 01:28:54,067
where it is considered sacrilege
even if you were talking out loud.

503
01:28:54,142 --> 01:28:58,203
Now you can scream, shout,
he cursed and even cursed,

504
01:28:58,279 --> 01:29:01,476
without fear of disturbing
nobody or nothing.

505
01:29:01,549 --> 01:29:05,315
The most harmful of
animals, man, has already passed this way.

506
01:29:05,387 --> 01:29:08,356
You can follow his tracks
kilometers and kilometers

507
01:29:08,423 --> 01:29:12,553
along this white and dusty road,
which crosses the heart of Africa today,

508
01:29:12,627 --> 01:29:17,724
always meandering
along a desolate and dead setting.

509
01:30:22,197 --> 01:30:24,825
I just left a behind
Endangered Africa

510
01:30:24,899 --> 01:30:27,163
but immediately we enter a
Africa already gone.

511
01:30:27,235 --> 01:30:29,260
The division is a
clean crack.

512
01:30:29,337 --> 01:30:31,464
On the other hand, confusion
and indiscriminate death.

513
01:30:31,539 --> 01:30:33,871
On this side, order
and discriminatory life.

514
01:30:33,942 --> 01:30:35,349
This is how it is seen from above
the city of Cape Town,

515
01:30:35,350 --> 01:30:37,382
one of the biggest
cities in south africa,

516
01:30:37,412 --> 01:30:39,744
today the country with the most
many enemies in the world.

517
01:30:39,814 --> 01:30:42,476
To the universal cry that
proclaim "Africa for Africans",

518
01:30:42,550 --> 01:30:45,246
South Africans answer:
"This is not Africa."

519
01:30:45,320 --> 01:30:46,960
And this thing, the one
little, it's true.

520
01:31:22,624 --> 01:31:25,184
This is a perspective
which appears suddenly and unpredictably,

521
01:31:25,260 --> 01:31:27,228
an ignored and distant landscape

522
01:31:27,295 --> 01:31:30,662
which seems to have moved away from
the network of parallels and meridians.

523
01:31:30,732 --> 01:31:33,633
It's not Africa, but it's not
neither Europe nor America.

524
01:31:33,701 --> 01:31:36,829
There is nothing that can
give meaning to a geographical expression.

525
01:31:36,905 --> 01:31:40,238
It is not an African mirage,
because it exists in time and space.

526
01:31:40,308 --> 01:31:43,641
It's not even the Promised Land,
because it lacks the biblical requirements.

527
01:31:43,711 --> 01:31:45,799
All that's left is
let's define it as a miracle...

528
01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:48,115
an important miracle, accomplished throughout
of three centuries, by a persecuted people

529
01:31:48,116 --> 01:31:52,576
who wanted to prove that only
His God is the true one.

530
01:31:52,654 --> 01:31:55,555
A miracle that, in
despite its physical reality,

531
01:31:55,623 --> 01:31:57,921
transcends the limits of time

532
01:31:57,992 --> 01:32:01,450
and space, enveloping people
and objects in a soft blanket

533
01:32:01,529 --> 01:32:04,555
of happiness, in a delicate
balance between the transient and the eternal.

534
01:35:21,662 --> 01:35:23,596
Black Africa a
tribal dances,

535
01:35:23,664 --> 01:35:25,962
of swollen breasts
offer to the glory of nature,

536
01:35:26,034 --> 01:35:28,264
just survive
on the film sets.

537
01:35:28,336 --> 01:35:31,134
In South Africa it
cast a film about Zulu,

538
01:35:31,205 --> 01:35:34,504
the proud African tribe that did
things so difficult for buri.

539
01:35:43,051 --> 01:35:45,246
Today, Zulu women
finish academic studies,

540
01:35:45,319 --> 01:35:48,755
i speak excellent english
and receive union wages

541
01:35:48,823 --> 01:35:52,259
because they put on underwear from
nylon and danced the dance of their grandmothers.

542
01:35:52,326 --> 01:35:56,262
During the breaks, the rhythm
ancient of the tom-tom

543
01:35:56,330 --> 01:35:58,764
gives them some
variations on the theme.

544
01:37:42,203 --> 01:37:44,262
African woman a
discovered that she is a woman

545
01:37:44,338 --> 01:37:46,101
and it starts to
behave as such.

546
01:37:46,174 --> 01:37:49,302
It wants to be modern because
she feels that the past is against her.

547
01:37:49,377 --> 01:37:51,106
When it was empty, it had
two mammary glands.

548
01:37:51,179 --> 01:37:53,079
Now that it is
clothed, she has two breasts.

549
01:37:53,147 --> 01:37:55,382
He doesn't want to show himself. He wants
to be looked at to make you

550
01:37:55,383 --> 01:37:57,184
to guess what lies beneath
her alluring clothes.

551
01:37:57,185 --> 01:38:00,154
She covers her privacy not from
modesty, but to be coquettish.

552
01:38:00,221 --> 01:38:02,255
He undresses to surrender
and dress to attack.

553
01:38:02,256 --> 01:38:05,248
Empty was a booty, like
any black woman.

554
01:38:05,326 --> 01:38:07,920
Dressed is a tyrant,
like a white woman

555
01:38:07,995 --> 01:38:09,986
Africa is covering itself
consciously

556
01:38:10,064 --> 01:38:13,932
and wrapped in all veils
to his consciousness, Africa disappears.

557
01:39:44,792 --> 01:39:49,229
In turn, the authorities
encourage, or even enforce, modesty.

558
01:39:49,930 --> 01:39:51,591
In the southern regions
of Sudan,

559
01:39:51,666 --> 01:39:53,566
thousands of pieces of linen
intimate, all one size fits all,

560
01:39:53,567 --> 01:39:56,647
are distributed to the tribes in the interior,
by those from the "Legion of Decency".

561
01:39:57,238 --> 01:39:59,672
The Invincible Warriors,
entrusted with these

562
01:39:59,740 --> 01:40:04,734
must maintain care
which every good citizen

563
01:40:04,812 --> 01:40:07,093
he owes her for everything
what is state property.

564
01:40:32,173 --> 01:40:33,296
Of all
things to hide

565
01:40:33,297 --> 01:40:35,542
underwear covers what
is the most urgent to cover.

566
01:40:35,543 --> 01:40:38,120
That is enough
to take the decent path

567
01:40:38,121 --> 01:40:40,640
to conquer one
additional dignities.

568
01:41:07,274 --> 01:41:09,574
So far, no warriors
he didn't put on pants.

569
01:41:09,575 --> 01:41:11,734
Never a lion
he climbed a tree.

570
01:41:11,812 --> 01:41:14,508
The fact is that times have changed
changed, and in the new republics

571
01:41:14,582 --> 01:41:16,709
the ancient kings have
fallen into disgrace.

572
01:41:16,784 --> 01:41:19,947
Let's take the poor ex-king
of animals with strong muscles.

573
01:41:20,020 --> 01:41:22,386
Today, his anger does not
it scares no one anymore.

574
01:41:22,456 --> 01:41:25,857
While zebras and gazelles
run, chased by gunshots,

575
01:41:25,926 --> 01:41:29,589
the once invincible, ex-aristocrat,
former hunter of noble prey,

576
01:41:29,663 --> 01:41:32,063
climb trees and
hunt lizards.

577
01:41:32,133 --> 01:41:33,691
Poor king of the jungle!

578
01:41:33,768 --> 01:41:37,329
His old reputation haunts him,
making his humiliation public.

579
01:41:37,405 --> 01:41:40,636
Tourists flock to the parks
to see him, only him.

580
01:41:40,708 --> 01:41:42,232
where is the lion There's the lion.

581
01:41:42,309 --> 01:41:44,300
Wait, let's see what the lion does.

582
01:41:44,378 --> 01:41:45,970
This is the whole day

583
01:41:46,046 --> 01:41:48,412
and he doesn't even let them
a moment of intimacy.

584
01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:50,637
Encouraged in his ancestral laziness,
the african lion has given up hunting,

585
01:43:50,704 --> 01:43:53,264
seeing how they do it, for
they, the rangers from the reserves.

586
01:43:53,340 --> 01:43:55,331
Fresh meat
delivered to his door,

587
01:43:55,409 --> 01:43:57,809
i.e. in the areas that
more accessible to tourists,

588
01:43:57,878 --> 01:44:01,473
where the park administration
he has a great interest in the lion staying.

589
01:44:20,067 --> 01:44:23,230
So, over time, the old man
and the independent nomadic king of the jungle,

590
01:44:23,304 --> 01:44:26,740
became a stingy pensioner,
with middle class habits,

591
01:44:26,807 --> 01:44:28,638
forced to defend his steak

592
01:44:28,709 --> 01:44:31,906
against those who until yesterday
he would not have dared to approach.

593
01:44:54,868 --> 01:44:57,132
A new rebellion a
broke out in Tanganyika.

594
01:44:57,204 --> 01:45:00,298
The crowd massacred
Muslims, including women and children.

595
01:45:00,374 --> 01:45:03,775
The graves are full.
The bodies must be lined up outside.

596
01:45:03,844 --> 01:45:07,177
The eagles wait patiently
to finish the action,

597
01:45:07,247 --> 01:45:09,207
so that they can
start their own operation.

598
01:45:44,251 --> 01:45:46,412
Dar es Salaam is located
under the rule of anarchy.

599
01:45:46,487 --> 01:45:48,488
Everyone is caught up in
rebellion: The people, the police

600
01:45:48,489 --> 01:45:50,286
and even the army
who also revolted.

601
01:45:50,357 --> 01:45:53,383
President Nyerere has disappeared.
Nobody knows who is running the country.

602
01:45:53,460 --> 01:45:55,360
for us,
European journalists,

603
01:45:55,429 --> 01:45:56,989
going out on the street in
record search,

604
01:45:56,990 --> 01:45:58,231
it is a step
almost suicidal.

605
01:45:58,232 --> 01:46:01,224
Wherever we go, they go
drive away They offend us. He threatens us.

606
01:46:01,301 --> 01:46:03,428
We try to
we reach the periphery.

607
01:46:03,504 --> 01:46:07,099
On the bloody streets, the crowd
hides the victims of the massacre from us.

608
01:46:21,522 --> 01:46:25,458
In a neighborhood, a Muslim tries to
he runs from a crowd that wants to lynch him.

609
01:46:25,526 --> 01:46:28,859
Jump off a pier. The mob
reaches him and drowns him.

610
01:46:32,366 --> 01:46:34,698
They destroy houses and
businessmen's shops

611
01:46:34,768 --> 01:46:38,226
accused of taking over from
white exploitation of people.

612
01:46:40,674 --> 01:46:42,955
With great effort, we sneak out
through the crowd in Uhuru Square.

613
01:46:42,976 --> 01:46:45,206
Someone killed
three African soldiers.

614
01:46:45,279 --> 01:46:46,746
The police are preparing reprisals,

615
01:46:46,814 --> 01:46:48,414
pulling them all
Muslims out of their homes

616
01:46:48,415 --> 01:46:50,508
and aligning them to the wall.

617
01:46:55,422 --> 01:46:57,720
Shout at us to go
they threaten us with weapons.

618
01:46:57,791 --> 01:47:03,286
We try to negotiate, to buy time,
while the camera continues to film.

619
01:47:09,903 --> 01:47:11,029
One of us is injured.

620
01:47:11,105 --> 01:47:13,335
I open the doors and
they drag us out.

621
01:47:13,407 --> 01:47:15,807
They arrest us.
They put us against the wall.

622
01:47:15,876 --> 01:47:19,368
We are saved by a miracle
about which the newspapers will report later.

623
01:47:36,830 --> 01:47:39,196
Moise Tshombe s
returned from exile as a liberator,

624
01:47:39,266 --> 01:47:41,860
father of the country and envoy
especially the UN.

625
01:47:41,935 --> 01:47:45,200
Three quarters of the Congo are in
the hands of rebels and communists.

626
01:47:45,272 --> 01:47:47,172
Tshombe promises to
clean the hearth in three months.

627
01:48:34,721 --> 01:48:38,418
Two months later, Stanleyville,
the stronghold of Simba leader Nicholas Olenga,

628
01:48:38,492 --> 01:48:41,655
was conquered by the paratroopers
and Belgian mercenaries.

629
01:48:41,728 --> 01:48:43,821
The city is one
cemetery without graves.

630
01:48:43,897 --> 01:48:45,331
During the 100
of occupation days,

631
01:48:45,332 --> 01:48:48,495
Simba tortured and, in part,
ate 12,000 Africans.

632
01:49:05,452 --> 01:49:08,649
With guns in hand, the Congolese troops
regular forces Simba prisoners

633
01:49:08,722 --> 01:49:10,922
to fulfill this
macabre cleaning operation.

634
01:49:11,358 --> 01:49:14,816
In the last days, 80 de
schoolchildren were burned alive.

635
01:49:14,895 --> 01:49:17,227
They have four nurses
were raped and killed.

636
01:49:17,297 --> 01:49:19,070
Sixty four of
people were shot

637
01:49:19,071 --> 01:49:20,766
including Europeans,
Indians and Pakistanis.

638
01:49:20,767 --> 01:49:23,759
Many bodies have a
long belly wound,

639
01:49:23,837 --> 01:49:26,328
where Simba a
took out the liver and ate it.

640
01:49:55,636 --> 01:49:58,298
Nine nuns, seven
missionaries and four white children

641
01:49:58,372 --> 01:50:02,069
were tied with wire and
shot in the mouth by rebels.

642
01:50:02,142 --> 01:50:03,939
The heat is unbearable.

643
01:50:04,011 --> 01:50:06,245
The air is hard to breathe
because of the smell of corpses.

644
01:50:06,246 --> 01:50:09,147
It is also the fear of
a plague epidemic.

645
01:50:20,594 --> 01:50:22,186
At Leopoldville Airport,

646
01:50:22,262 --> 01:50:23,584
an American plane
C-130 lands

647
01:50:23,585 --> 01:50:25,789
bringing the survivors
the Stanleyville massacre.

648
01:50:26,733 --> 01:50:30,260
Just yesterday, they had been
gather for execution.

649
01:50:30,337 --> 01:50:32,635
The machine guns had started
already reap them,

650
01:50:32,706 --> 01:50:36,301
when 320 paratroopers
Belgians fell from the sky

651
01:50:36,376 --> 01:50:40,107
and, in 10 minutes, they managed to remove from
about 7,000 people into the hands of the rebels.

652
01:50:41,648 --> 01:50:45,516
Despite the operation
lightning, 22 of them are missing.

653
01:50:45,585 --> 01:50:48,679
The wounded were taken out from below
a pile of 40 corpses,

654
01:50:48,755 --> 01:50:52,521
among which they were identified
Americans Carlson and Rain

655
01:50:52,592 --> 01:50:55,459
and the Belgians Brinkman,
Masqueau and De Smitter.

656
01:50:55,796 --> 01:50:58,664
Five of these injured, among them
there was a woman who had been raped,

657
01:50:58,665 --> 01:51:01,345
they were going to die shortly,
in a Danish hospital in Leopoldville.

658
01:51:01,768 --> 01:51:03,201
Evacuation of survivors,

659
01:51:03,270 --> 01:51:05,966
transport of the wounded, a
food and medicine,

660
01:51:06,039 --> 01:51:10,476
was carried out in a few hours by
The US Air Force, with 40 planes.

661
01:51:10,544 --> 01:51:14,708
Two days later, on November 27,
the governments of the new African states

662
01:51:14,781 --> 01:51:17,909
they asked Washington
to officially apologize

663
01:51:17,985 --> 01:51:22,319
for the abusive mixture of
US in Congolese internal affairs.

664
01:51:27,594 --> 01:51:30,995
Beyond Polis and Beni, on the border
from the north between Congo and Sudan,

665
01:51:31,064 --> 01:51:33,498
the supply is attempted
air with food and medicine

666
01:51:33,567 --> 01:51:35,592
of a mission
occupied by rebels.

667
01:51:35,669 --> 01:51:39,400
The life of priests, nuns and
over 100 children, is at risk.

668
01:51:39,473 --> 01:51:43,170
The 6,000 army rebels
Kirlis, who control the area

669
01:51:43,243 --> 01:51:45,609
they threatened to want them
kill all the besieged,

670
01:51:45,679 --> 01:51:49,342
if even a single paratrooper
or helicopter is trying to land.

671
01:51:49,950 --> 01:51:53,909
For eight days, the ANC planes
they spin in the sky above the mission,

672
01:51:53,987 --> 01:51:57,013
dropping drops that
fall into the hands of the rebels.

673
01:51:57,090 --> 01:52:00,287
At dawn, on the ninth day, the planes
and the helicopters take off

674
01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:01,725
and we are with them.

675
01:52:01,795 --> 01:52:04,457
But this time, no
there is no one to wait for us.

676
01:55:21,394 --> 01:55:23,385
We will get to know them one by one.

677
01:55:23,463 --> 01:55:25,556
They are the white mercenaries
of Shombe's army.

678
01:55:25,632 --> 01:55:29,068
They are the last soldiers of fortune,
which survived from another century.

679
01:55:29,135 --> 01:55:31,603
They are former citizens of a
worlds that kicked them out

680
01:55:31,671 --> 01:55:33,434
or from which I run.

681
01:55:33,506 --> 01:55:37,237
Dead and survivors, all of them
are, or were, ex-something.

682
01:55:37,310 --> 01:55:39,904
From a troubled past,
an awkward present

683
01:55:39,980 --> 01:55:42,540
a ruined adventure
a lost faith.

684
01:55:42,616 --> 01:55:45,881
They are former "Pieds Noirs" from Algeria,
former members of the British commandos,

685
01:55:45,952 --> 01:55:49,046
former German engineers,
former Kenyan farmers,

686
01:55:49,122 --> 01:55:53,821
former residents expelled from Sudan,
Egypt, Ethiopia, Uganda, Tanganyika,

687
01:55:53,893 --> 01:55:57,260
former Katanga veterans,
former professional hunters,

688
01:55:57,330 --> 01:55:59,855
former students from Africa
of Southern and Rhodesia,

689
01:55:59,933 --> 01:56:02,993
who come to watch with
a macabre academic spirit,

690
01:56:03,069 --> 01:56:05,196
the idea of ​​glory and adventure.

691
01:56:05,272 --> 01:56:08,764
Two days ago, 15 of them have
killed 400 rebels from Kisala.

692
01:56:08,842 --> 01:56:11,675
Tomorrow, 40 of them will
he was trying to make an effort

693
01:56:11,745 --> 01:56:15,374
on which 93,000 UN soldiers
they did not succeed: the conquest of Boende.

694
01:57:14,974 --> 01:57:18,705
The attack plan for Boende provides
the massive use of air forces.

695
01:57:18,778 --> 01:57:23,078
The "massive" air forces are
these two P6 aged 20,

696
01:57:23,149 --> 01:57:24,175
kept whole, as
better possible

697
01:57:24,187 --> 01:57:25,417
being fastened with screws
and tied with wire.

698
01:57:25,418 --> 01:57:29,252
They are his personal property
Tom O'Keefe and Somerset Wilson,

699
01:57:29,322 --> 01:57:33,224
former Rhodesian pilots, whose families
were massacred by Angolan rebels.

700
01:57:33,293 --> 01:57:36,751
They hired themselves and the planes
them, for $500 a month,

701
01:57:36,830 --> 01:57:38,564
money that no one has
he paid them for six months

702
01:57:38,565 --> 01:57:40,799
and for an insurance policy
of life, which, until now,

703
01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:43,234
no insurance company
he did not subscribe to it.

704
01:57:43,303 --> 01:57:45,423
And this time, like
always before leaving

705
01:57:45,438 --> 01:57:47,758
they filled out the forms of
at the airport, in the usual way.

706
01:57:47,807 --> 01:57:52,039
Destination: Hell. The reason
flight: personal problems.

707
02:00:43,850 --> 02:00:46,842
Simba ran away without having
time to butcher the missionaries

708
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:50,117
who lived for three months under
the daily nightmare of the massacre.

709
02:00:50,189 --> 02:00:51,709
Propaganda teaches them
those of Simba

710
02:00:51,710 --> 02:00:54,216
to touch the white man in
especially in the area of his God,

711
02:00:54,294 --> 02:00:58,492
a white-skinned, responsible God
for the arrogance of his believers.

712
02:01:10,176 --> 02:01:12,576
Along the way to
Boende, the Simba skeletons

713
02:01:12,645 --> 02:01:15,671
they rot in puddles, without
glory and no funeral.

714
02:01:15,748 --> 02:01:18,546
They advanced unprotected,
high on drugs,

715
02:01:18,618 --> 02:01:20,176
chanting "Mai Mulele",

716
02:01:20,253 --> 02:01:23,620
the magic spell that was supposed to
turns lead bullets into water.

717
02:01:23,690 --> 02:01:27,922
They were knocked down, disbelieving and amazed.
They died for nothing and no one.

718
02:01:27,994 --> 02:01:30,258
Africa has no fallen soldiers
and on one side and the other.

719
02:01:30,330 --> 02:01:32,560
It only has corpses.

720
02:02:40,033 --> 02:02:41,432
Boende fell.

721
02:02:41,501 --> 02:02:44,231
The last Simbas come out of
forest with hands up.

722
02:02:49,442 --> 02:02:51,239
Today comes to them
turn but tomorrow

723
02:02:51,310 --> 02:02:54,643
when the mercenaries leave the city
moving on to other goals,

724
02:02:54,714 --> 02:02:57,274
they will be from the other side
part of the rifle barrel.

725
02:03:23,509 --> 02:03:26,842
It is an absurd and tragic ballad
and it's been happening for five years now.

726
02:03:26,913 --> 02:03:29,404
Whites against blacks
and blacks against whites.

727
02:03:29,482 --> 02:03:34,044
They kill and die one by one,
as in a cruel game for children.

728
02:03:34,120 --> 02:03:36,645
No one wins and no one does
lose, once and for all.

729
02:03:36,723 --> 02:03:41,092
No condition is final,
except the dead, black and white,

730
02:03:41,160 --> 02:03:45,722
which, together, infect the ruins and se
decompose, amid the buzzing of flies,

731
02:03:45,798 --> 02:03:47,698
in a tie
absolute biological.

732
02:04:35,782 --> 02:04:39,513
The ethics of the Congolese guerrilla is
that the victor belongs to the spoils.

733
02:04:39,585 --> 02:04:43,214
The mercenaries followed, directly,
the vault of the revolutionary government

734
02:04:43,289 --> 02:04:45,450
and they threw him in
air with a bazooka.

735
02:04:45,525 --> 02:04:48,255
There were 50 inside
millions of Congolese francs.

736
02:04:48,327 --> 02:04:50,761
These were the funds
intended for the famous "Plan OK",

737
02:04:50,830 --> 02:04:54,527
according to which General Olenga, in
at the head of his 3,000 warriors,

738
02:04:54,600 --> 02:04:57,125
will invade the United States.

739
02:04:57,203 --> 02:04:59,262
America was saved.

740
02:05:07,914 --> 02:05:10,405
In the streets, the soldiers
I share the small change.

741
02:05:10,483 --> 02:05:13,043
The ambitious "OK Plan" a
been put off for ages,

742
02:05:13,119 --> 02:05:15,519
like all illusions
their naive aggrandizement.

743
02:05:15,588 --> 02:05:17,852
Meanwhile, I kidnap

744
02:05:17,924 --> 02:05:19,691
an equally sordid victory
and as futile as their raid,

745
02:05:19,692 --> 02:05:22,923
sharing a miserable little feast
from which I get only the crumbs.

746
02:05:22,995 --> 02:05:25,190
For centuries they were
poor by necessity.

747
02:05:25,264 --> 02:05:28,392
But now that they are rich
to excess, it loads,

748
02:05:28,467 --> 02:05:30,662
even if they don't want to
he could never take it.

749
02:05:30,736 --> 02:05:32,556
Bend under the weight
some trinkets

750
02:05:32,568 --> 02:05:34,797
useless, they follow
an ideal of enrichment,

751
02:05:34,874 --> 02:05:37,001
just looting
their own misery.

752
02:05:58,998 --> 02:06:01,592
The right to robbery is
only valid for 24 hours.

753
02:06:01,667 --> 02:06:03,294
Time has run out
10 minutes ago.

754
02:06:03,369 --> 02:06:07,703
But why could you steal now?
10 minutes and now you can't?

755
02:06:10,776 --> 02:06:15,372
A good Congolese soldier who fought
for the country, he will never understand.

756
02:06:35,334 --> 02:06:38,132
He will never understand either
why are the whites so agitated

757
02:06:38,204 --> 02:06:41,071
to find out who a
ate this peasant's liver.

758
02:06:44,243 --> 02:06:47,838
Or why there needs to be a process
to sentence this muleteer to death

759
02:06:47,914 --> 02:06:50,109
who burned 27 children alive.

760
02:06:53,486 --> 02:06:55,386
Or why them
arrest the soldiers

761
02:06:55,454 --> 02:06:58,184
who raped the bitches
muleteers in prison.

762
02:07:02,962 --> 02:07:05,396
And why do you need it?
of so many weapons

763
02:07:05,408 --> 02:07:08,093
to kill one
single unarmed Mulelist.

764
02:07:29,889 --> 02:07:32,202
While to kill
a bigger and stronger one,

765
02:07:32,203 --> 02:07:34,053
you only need
one shot.

766
02:08:47,666 --> 02:08:48,792
But in spite of everything

767
02:08:48,868 --> 02:08:52,031
Africa continues to be a
sea of uncontrollable life.

768
02:08:52,104 --> 02:08:55,665
Here in South Africa, for
every child born with white skin,

769
02:08:55,741 --> 02:08:58,107
I am born five
with black skin.

770
02:08:58,177 --> 02:09:00,873
Racial segregation, which
here it is called "apartheid"

771
02:09:00,946 --> 02:09:03,107
it is a temporary dam
short duration.

772
02:09:03,182 --> 02:09:06,151
The hysterical reaction
to a hysterical situation

773
02:09:06,218 --> 02:09:10,552
she is the one who threatens to drown
the smile of the new generations in hatred.

774
02:09:18,330 --> 02:09:21,390
Soweto is one of the most
large black cities in South Africa.

775
02:09:21,467 --> 02:09:24,300
Apartheid laws
they forbid the entry of whites.

776
02:09:24,370 --> 02:09:26,668
If it's a prison,
then it is a strange prison

777
02:09:26,739 --> 02:09:29,867
in which the doors are locked from
inside and open to the outside.

778
02:09:30,576 --> 02:09:33,602
On the other side of these lines,
there is another big prison…

779
02:09:33,679 --> 02:09:35,579
that of the whites.

780
02:09:37,983 --> 02:09:39,314
It is called Johannesburg.

781
02:09:39,385 --> 02:09:41,945
Apartheid forbids
entry of blacks.

782
02:09:42,021 --> 02:09:43,886
This is another one
strange prison

783
02:09:43,956 --> 02:09:47,153
in which the doors lock in
inside and open outside.

784
02:09:47,226 --> 02:09:50,684
Apartheid imprisoned two races
of people in two different prisons,

785
02:09:50,763 --> 02:09:53,027
whose locks
it works in a wrong way.

786
02:09:53,099 --> 02:09:56,796
Two gilded cages in the one
richest country in the world.

787
02:10:13,552 --> 02:10:15,986
The Boers discovered
gold a hundred years ago

788
02:10:16,055 --> 02:10:19,252
since they worked this land,
as farmers, for hundreds of years.

789
02:10:19,325 --> 02:10:22,817
There is no doubt that and
the bors have a right to this wealth,

790
02:10:22,895 --> 02:10:26,160
because the Boers are also Africans,
even if they are white africans.

791
02:10:26,232 --> 02:10:29,534
But it is also true that for a
extract only one of these gold bars

792
02:10:29,535 --> 02:10:32,129
it takes a day of
labor of 1000 black Africans

793
02:10:32,204 --> 02:10:34,604
and technical assistance
of 100 white Africans.

794
02:10:34,673 --> 02:10:37,608
Because this is a country
for 3 million white Africans

795
02:10:37,676 --> 02:10:39,439
and 11 million
of black Africans.

796
02:10:39,512 --> 02:10:41,571
And although everyone has
need the other

797
02:10:41,647 --> 02:10:44,207
I live in suspicion
numerical disproportion

798
02:10:44,283 --> 02:10:46,945
and in the misunderstanding of certain
slogans arriving from Europe:

799
02:10:47,019 --> 02:10:50,819
"Who is white is not
African", a racist statement.

800
02:10:50,890 --> 02:10:55,418
"Only black people are African",
another racist statement.

801
02:10:55,494 --> 02:10:57,394
So, day by day,

802
02:10:57,463 --> 02:11:01,399
the gilded prisons keep closing
and to open to the wail of the sirens

803
02:11:01,467 --> 02:11:05,130
which calls the white Africans and
the blacks to work together.

804
02:11:18,017 --> 02:11:20,679
As long as there was land
poor, it was an uninhabited land.

805
02:11:20,753 --> 02:11:23,187
Then, when you
they opened the mines

806
02:11:23,255 --> 02:11:25,883
the bant dwellers came down
from the mountains in search of work.

807
02:11:25,958 --> 02:11:31,055
Crowds also spread the news
we crossed the uncontrollable borders.

808
02:11:31,130 --> 02:11:34,293
Then came the turn of the refugees
from Congo, Sudan, Angola.

809
02:11:34,366 --> 02:11:36,800
Today there are 11 million and
their number is still growing.

810
02:11:36,869 --> 02:11:39,531
They come in waves at
entering me.

811
02:11:39,605 --> 02:11:43,803
It flows through the labyrinth of
tunnels that pass under the big city.

812
02:12:29,722 --> 02:12:32,252
The great golden vein, with o
half a kilometer thick,

813
02:12:32,253 --> 02:12:33,619
spins under Johannesburg,

814
02:12:33,692 --> 02:12:38,720
the ceiling that separates 3 million
of whites out of 11 million blacks,

815
02:12:38,797 --> 02:12:42,096
full of holes like a
giant swiss cheese.

816
02:12:42,167 --> 02:12:44,226
Crowds of miners
dig like termites

817
02:12:44,303 --> 02:12:47,761
crawling from one well to another
as the Christians of old in the catacombs,

818
02:12:47,840 --> 02:12:51,901
following the path of gold in a
secret, methodical, stifled grinding.

819
02:12:53,012 --> 02:12:56,948
Here, the roof creaks menacingly.
The miners run for cover.

820
02:12:57,016 --> 02:12:59,177
There, the big city
vibrates and trembles from

821
02:12:59,251 --> 02:13:02,618
the monotonous bursts of
dynamite, but no one moves.

822
02:13:02,688 --> 02:13:04,713
No one agreed
no attention for years.

823
02:13:25,744 --> 02:13:29,145
The stock market is continuously growing. The prices
shares are constantly high.

824
02:13:29,214 --> 02:13:31,705
Purchase orders a
mining stocks arrive

825
02:13:31,784 --> 02:13:34,685
from the markets of London,
New York, Geneva and Paris.

826
02:13:34,753 --> 02:13:38,416
On March 10 of this year, Moscow a
bought 2 million carats of diamonds.

827
02:13:38,490 --> 02:13:41,254
On May 12, Peking a
requested 50 tons of gold.

828
02:13:41,827 --> 02:13:45,593
Below, the great vein of the vein
of gold climbs up and down,

829
02:13:45,664 --> 02:13:47,222
just like the stock chart.

830
02:13:47,299 --> 02:13:49,563
Millions of punches
and shovels follow him

831
02:13:49,635 --> 02:13:52,035
in a tireless march
and vigorously to the surface.

832
02:13:52,938 --> 02:13:54,619
The great ceiling which
separate the two worlds

833
02:13:54,620 --> 02:13:56,539
it is more and more
thin and falling apart.

834
02:13:56,608 --> 02:13:58,872
The noise gradually
the largest of the Bursa

835
02:13:58,944 --> 02:14:04,041
it mixes with the boom more and more
closer and stronger to the explosions.

836
02:15:00,038 --> 02:15:03,735
God Almighty, now
when another day dies in your glory,

837
02:15:03,809 --> 02:15:08,041
bless and protect our lives.
Bless and protect our forces,

838
02:15:08,113 --> 02:15:11,241
because it is written that
the hyena will prevail over the lion

839
02:15:11,316 --> 02:15:13,807
when the lion will have no more
claws to steer with.

840
02:15:13,886 --> 02:15:16,382
Make sure this
great where I came from

841
02:15:16,383 --> 02:15:18,823
it will stretch
always in front of us

842
02:15:18,891 --> 02:15:20,586
and never behind us.

843
02:15:21,059 --> 02:15:23,653
Bless and
protect this last refuge

844
02:15:23,729 --> 02:15:26,755
where you led us to find him
untouched the day I came

845
02:15:26,832 --> 02:15:29,562
and in which I resisted
hatred and violence.

846
02:15:30,269 --> 02:15:32,794
Finally, bless and
protects the waves and winds,

847
02:15:32,871 --> 02:15:35,738
because anger a
two oceans united

848
02:15:35,808 --> 02:15:39,403
not to take us out for
always from these shores.

849
02:15:39,478 --> 02:15:40,502
Amen.

850
02:15:52,391 --> 02:15:55,121
At the end of the era
glaciers, a warm current

851
02:15:55,194 --> 02:15:58,630
detached the southern glaciers together
with this little colony of penguins

852
02:15:58,697 --> 02:16:02,758
and carried them here on huge floes
of ice, which then melted in the sun.

853
02:16:02,835 --> 02:16:06,737
Isolated and without the possibility to
returns to their homeland,

854
02:16:06,805 --> 02:16:09,467
for centuries they were
strangers in a strange land

855
02:16:09,541 --> 02:16:12,840
which is becoming more and more
hot and more hostile to them,

856
02:16:12,911 --> 02:16:14,990
surrounded by a great chariot
grows more and more

857
02:16:14,991 --> 02:16:16,647
and it is more and more
more full of anger.

858
02:16:16,648 --> 02:16:20,015
Maybe a bit of peace will come over
these waters sooner or later,

859
02:16:20,085 --> 02:16:24,317
before like a wave stronger than
the others to destroy forever

860
02:16:24,389 --> 02:16:28,826
this last stone, which is the end
geography of the dark continent.

861
02:18:14,299 --> 02:18:17,700
Finally, we would like to ask
apologies to our families

862
02:18:17,769 --> 02:18:21,170
because we were gone
from home for three years.

863
02:18:21,773 --> 02:18:27,075
This movie, born
without prejudice,

864
02:18:27,145 --> 02:18:30,205
he doesn't try and he didn't try
never create new ones.

865
02:18:30,282 --> 02:18:33,718
He was just trying to document reality
the way the blood spilled, everywhere,

866
02:18:33,785 --> 02:18:37,016
represents a loss of
wealth for the whole world.

867
02:18:37,785 --> 02:18:40,016
