Take him.

Hello.

Is it fair, Leo?

Leo, how can you treat your mother like this?

You never call.

You never answer.

Leo.

My name is not Leo.

Can you respect my wishes, mom?

15 years.

15 years since you've been home.

Your father and I won't be here forever.

You know why I won't come.

And your sister tells us that you got engaged.

Oh, my son.

I'm not fighting you.

You're a man now.

I don't want to have this conversation with you mom.

You've been away from home a long time.

Please.

Come home.

At least for our wedding anniversary this weekend.

Bring your fiancée, let us meet her.

An engagement is sacred.

Let us bless it for you.

No.

Just promise to think about it.

Okay?

Morning, babe.

Sure.

Luc, please.

What's wrong?

Oh, you never do anything wrong.

So do you want me to do something wrong?

You are

strong and kind and sensitive and

sweet and confident and blah, blah, blah.

Heck, you even put a ring on it before I had to badger you.

Baby, you kind of did badger me, babe. You know when...

Okay. Alright. I'm sorry.

Continue.

Luc.

How can we get married without me meeting your people?

It's not important.

Well, am I not important?

You know how much I want a family.

It was just me and my mother when I was a child before she died.

But...

I want parents and

grandparents and aunties and uncles

and sisters and brothers and cousins. I just...

I want a real family.

Family doesn't matter.

So what are we doing here then?

Because I'm sure as heck not going to start a family

with somebody who thinks family doesn't matter.

No. Don't do that.

That's not what I meant.

Okay.

Hey, hey. Listen.

I want a family of our own.

Baby.

Hey, listen.

You.

Me.

That's it.

I'd rather just keep my distance away from my people.

It's... It's fine, really.

There's...

We all have a mutual understanding.

Luc, see eh.

Me, I'm not understanding.

It's very obvious you're hiding something.

And if you think I'm crazy enough to...

You know what?

Maybe we should end this.

What?

Nikki? Babe, you...

Babe, wait now.

Come here. Come, come, come. Let's not fight over this.

- Please. Come on. - You want us to stop fighting?

- Well then, I want to meet your people. - Baby...

But clearly none of us is getting what we want this morning.

Don't do that. Don't do that.

Don't do that.

Trust me.

There are people you or anyone

should not know.

It's a village, babe.

We all have villages.

There's no network, no cable.

It's their wedding anniversary this weekend.

We'll go for that.

It's a weekend, baby.

It's...

Do you hear me?

It's a weekend.

Weekend and we're out.

We...

Thank you.

I can't believe we're not there yet.

It's that gridlock traffic we met at the bridge.

Never seen anything like it before.

We'll be there soon enough. Don't worry. Okay?

Well, the sooner the better.

This place gives me the creeps.

Oh, great.

Don't say a word.

Yes?

Good evening.

So, what brings you here?

Just passing through.

Please come down from your vehicle.

No.

This one is a brave fool.

I don't like brave fools.

Let's do it.

It's a good car. We can sell it if we keep it clean.

It's just a routine security check.

Or do you have something to hide?

No.

So why don't you get down,

and let's confirm you're not the man we're looking for, and then

you can be on your way?

I'm not the man you're looking for. Trust me.

Madam, are you sure you know this man?

Have you been kidnapped?

He's my fiancé.

I'm her fiancé.

And I am brave, but definitely not a fool.

What's taking so long?

Forget the car and let's just do it.

You're wasting time.

Shut up!

Erm, I'm sorry.

Like I said.

We're looking for a man.

We got a report that he might be passing here with the woman he kidnapped.

Madam.

My apologies for frightening you.

Drive safe.

I'm sorry.

For?

I mean, if I hadn't insisted on this... road trip

Well, you wanted an adventure babe.

What did you say?

You wanted an adventure...

No, I mean, What did you say to them?

They realised who my family is.

What?

Back there, it was, scary.

But, just remembering how well you handled yourself.

My loins are frothing.

Who talks like that?

Your wife-to-be.

Yes.

Oh, my son.

After so many years.

Is it really you?

Oh, my son. Welcome.

Good evening, mom. Sorry we came so late.

So this is the girl that has taken my son's heart.

Now I can understand.

- Leo. - Now it all makes sense.

- Welcome. - Thank you, ma.

Guys.

Meet Nikiya, my fiancée.

Nikiya.

My parents.

Mrs Omicha Chezeta.

And the old man is Chief Meki Chezeta.

Good evening, ma. Good evening, sir.

- Good evening. - Oh, my goodness.

You are so beautiful. Oh, you look so divine.

Thank you so much, ma.

Omicha. Omicha, move.

Let me, let me hug her.

I hope you don't mind. We are huggers in this family.

I don't mind.

Oh, Leo.

I can almost forgive you

for getting engaged without letting us know.

It's a nickname. I hate it.

Don't mind him. He's a lion.

Just like his father.

You're welcome to our home.

Thank you so much sir. Welcome.

I see where Luc gets his...

looks from.

You are gorgeous, aren't you?

Look, you might be making a mistake marrying this rascal.

Why settle for a copy when you have the original?

Old is gold, isn't it Nikiya?

One hundred percent, sir.

Look at you.

Oh, my goodness.

Come on, let's go inside.

- Where are your things? - Oh, they're in the trunk.

Babe, just chill for me here.

- Let me get the... - Nonsense.

Get it yourself, we're going inside.

Isn't that so, scrumptious?

How come you all have the same marks?

It's a family thing.

Tradition.

I think they're charming.

They've been nothing but lovely so far.

How can you treat them like this?

They're not always going to be around, you know?

Yeah, they're nice.

But they're always in my face with things

I'd rather not talk about.

Like?

It's complicated, babe.

And it's late.

Babe, we need to go to bed.

We're here for the weekend for you.

And we are out.

I hear you, sir.

Come here.

This is your sofa, right?

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, dad.

You're going to have to stop this

'Sir' thing.

You know we're family now.

Yes, daddy.

Okay. They're up!

Do you want to try some of the meat?

No, sir. Thank you, sir.

I mean, daddy.

Yeah. Good morning, ma.

Morning, my dear.

Please, stop calling me Ma.

- I'm your mom now, right? - Okay, mummy.

Sit, sit, sit, sit.

I hope you slept well.

- Yes, mummy. - Right.

What's that?

Oh, it's just the carpenter. He's doing some work in the kitchen.

Ah, okay.

- Kama is not here yet? - Not yet.

Ah, that reminds me.

I'll be right back.

- Car keys? - It's on the dresser in my room.

Okay.

- I like this girl. I like her. - A lot.

Guys.

About your party.

It's not starting until 1 p.m.

Mom?

About the food, I was hoping we could--

Don't worry about it. I have sorted it all out.

Nothing unusual for my boy.

For your vegetarian boy.

I think the caterers are here.

Take those pots to the back.

I hope the firewood is more than enough.

Hello, sir.

You are the carpenter, I guess.

Yes. Good morning, ma'am.

Good morning.

What's your name?

Benjamin.

Just Ben.

Okay. Benjamin. Just Ben.

Well done.

Thank you ma.

Are you done?

Yes I am.

So you know this family?

Yes.

I'm their son's fiancée.

Is everything okay?

Yes. Yes.

Your gift got stuck under the seat, and I was...

Ah, just hurry back in, eh.

Before the sun cooks you.

Yes, you're right.

You need to put a smile on that pretty face.

Look at you.

I thought you said you covered it with makeup.

I did.

So you're telling me I'm blind?

You're telling me this?

Maybe I should just add another one to it.

Zeido, please.

We're almost there.

I can defend one, not two.

Please.

Next time, put ice blocks on it.

I will.

Good.

You need to stop making me angry.

I don't like it.

Sorry.

I forgive you.

What do you say?

Thank you.

Very much.

What's all this now?

So,

what brings you this way?

Good afternoon. We are--

Keep quiet and behave yourself.

Men are talking.

How much do you want?

How much do I want?

I mean, it's very hot,

and I'm sure you guys will like to buy

a cold beer or something.

How much do we want?

As much as we can carry.

So I take it you're not from around here.

Are you?

This is not up to my own place.

And where I'm from,

we speak proper English.

Good to know.

Good to know.

No, no, no, no, no.

It... It hasn't come to this.

- Calm down. - No.

Easy. It's okay.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No. No.

How admirable?

- Woman, wait your turn. - No!

Get out of my face.

No.

Don't do this.

I'm taking this man home to my family.

He's an important guest.

You're from Kwasa?

Show me who you are.

Show me who you are.

I know.

- Would you like a salad? - Yes please.

I'll be right back.

We should greet my parents.

After. Food first.

So...

What do we have here?

Kama.

Luc.

Really.

So you actually missed me.

Why would you say that?

You're the one that cut yourself from us.

It's just, you guys, you know I don't...

What's this?

What is this?

It's fine.

Kama, I can see it.

It's okay. It's nothing.

Kama.

What is the meaning of all this?

I take my eyes off you for just one second.

And you're all over another man like a harlot.

- What did you call her? - Stay out of this, you fool.

Luc!

Please.

Zeido. He's my brother.

Silly. Of course I know he's your...

Luc, right?

Your sister, she talks about you all the time.

It's nice to meet you.

You should be careful the words you use, Zeido.

Hey. I may seem like a wolf,

but I'm harmless.

Really. Come now.

Excuse us.

- What? - It's fine.

- Does he hit you? - It's not a big deal.

It's okay. Let it go.

- Kama. - Luc. Let it go.

It's fine.

It's fine.

See. I love you.

Yeah? It's good to see you.

But I have to go see mom.

Now, what is a pretty thing like you doing serving food?

- I am not a servant... - Never mind.

Get me swallow.

Pounded yam, not Pound-o.

Because all this I'm seeing here is not real food.

With some, er... let me see.

Ejolo soup

and some Kitan.

Half-half. With enough meat.

You understand?

Why can't you ask nicely?

You're a waitress, yes?

Get me food.

Is there a problem?

I'm just looking for food.

All these waitresses, or whatever they call themselves.

They can be very useless sometimes.

Go now.

She's my finacée.

I...

If you're hungry, get yourself some food, okay?

What's with that guy?

He is my sister's boyfriend.

Really?

- And, where is she? - Incoming.

Is that the lovely lady I've heard so much about?

Hi, you must be Kama.

I'm Niki-- Nikiya Sambosi.

I've heard so much about you.

I mean, Nikiya this. Nikiya that.

Nikiya brought me the moon yesterday.

Nikiya, gave me immortality.

You're so funny.

I think I'm in love with your sister.

- She's gorgeous. - I approve.

Not like I need your approval, but, thank you..

Relax.

Can't someone joke with you again?

- You're so beautiful. - Thank you.

Kama, we need to talk.

Sure. Later.

First, I need to steal your fiancée for a quick minute.

You know, just to pick her brains.

Here.

That was some party.

Indeed it was.

Yeah.

I was so happy at the huge turnout of guests.

Where's your meat?

Luc doesn't eat meat, my dear.

He's vegetarian.

How come?

What do you mean you don't eat meat?

I mean, I can expect that from the women, you know.

Sometimes they behave like cows and cows only eat grass.

But you, my friend, are a man.

Yeah. Tell him, Zeido. Tell him.

A man needs his meat.

Eat some meat.

My Zeido has a huge appetite for meat.

And I love that about him.

As a man of substance

I cannot joke with my meat.

You understand?

You don't say.

It was a lovely party.

Indeed it was.

It was well worth it, wasn't it?

50 amazing years now.

50 years!

Oh, yes. God has been so good to us.

And it's almost as if they just met yesterday.

I mean, look at them.

So in love.

What would you say is the secret to a great marriage?

You know the old cliche that, erm,

the wife is always right.

No, really, erm.

It's more of the apologies, you know.

So whether, you know, what you did was right or wrong, you know,

just apologize.

You joker.

No, it's much more than that.

Meki and I,

we know, you know,

share the same tastes. Enjoy each other's company.

We know everything about each other.

No secrets between us.

Nothing too silly.

Nothing too dark to keep away from each other.

No.

What we're trying to say is, marry your best friend.

Except your

best friend is of the same sex as you.

As a man of substance, I

cannot condone

such gay nonsense.

Get me some more food. I'm still hungry.

You can go get it yourself.

It's fine. I was going to the kitchen anyway.

Kama.

Sit.

Leo.

Let your sister get her man some meat.

He's our honoured guest.

- Honoured guest? - Yep.

What's wrong with all of you?

Leo, behave yourself. We have company.

Don't call me that.

Are you guys so bloody blind?

You will not speak to your mother like that.

How can you guys sit there and watch this half-wit treat your daughter like crap?

Aren't you going to ask her about her eyes?

It's fine.

I slipped on a banana peel and fell.

Oh, how original, sis!

Where did you get that from?

Tom and Jerry?

Hey.

Come on, man.

I will never lay my hands on Kama.

She's my life.

I love her.

Please, Luc. You have to believe me.

I will never do that.

Mom. Dad.

Believe me, I would never do that.

Stop the bullshit, man.

Luc, I will like to believe that I've raised my daughter enough

to understand self-respect.

To know she deserves much more than a man who would hit her.

Luc.

Please.

It's fine.

But.

Why would, would Leo assume that, er,

we'd just watch our daughter get abused, and we'd do nothing about it?

Really?

Hypothetically.

Leo, eat your food.

My name is not Leo.

Luc.

Honey.

You can go and get your man his food.

No, no, no.

Don't worry, babe.

I'll get it myself.

You have such a hold on him I see.

Do you have more to add to what you've already said?

Okay. I'm sorry. Alright?

I'm sorry. But...

You don't need that animal in your life.

You see?

See?

That's why you would never understand.

You just can't.

What do you mean?

You're my sister and I love you.

I know you do.

I also know that you don't approve of Zeido.

And I accept that.

There are things I need to do that you do not have to understand

and that's fine.

If you really want to save me,

then have some grandkids for mom and dad.

I don't understand. The...

I can't have kids.

Yes, I've had a second opinion and no, I do not want to dwell on it.

I'm sorry.

What did dad say?

I guess it's up to you now.

Kama.

I am not surprised.

A boy like Luc doesn't know what to do

with a pretty thing like you.

You should be with a man.

A man--

Luc, is an actual man.

A better man than you could ever hope to be.

What's all this about now?

How dare you talk to me like that?

You hit her. Don't you?

You got that poor woman too scared to even say anything.

Woman.

You need a lesson or two about knowing your place.

Is that what you call it?

You,

should have minded your business.

Now you've made me angry.

See. When I'm angry,

sometimes,

Kama falls from the stairs.

Maybe

this time

she'll slam her head against the door.

Again.

Everything alright?

Yes, ma.

All yours.

I see you love my cowboy boots.

See, cow boys,

are men of substance.

You understand?

Let me get back to my darling. Now.

Mommy.

Forgive me, but,

I don't think that man treats your daughter well.

I don't see any problem.

They seem fine to me. They seem happy.

He hits her.

And he's not even ashamed to speak about--

Kama is happy.

We are all happy.

Just enjoy the evening.

- But mommy, he literally just-- - Nikiya!

I understand that you mean well.

But you must realize that this is our family.

All is well as it is.

We love you, Nikiya.

But, you must realize

that you're going to have to drop this.

Don't rock the boat.

Okay?

Now, hurry up and come join us.

We miss you already.

You can go back to sleep.

I'm not in the mood tonight.

and tell me you keep some alcohol in this godforsaken house.

You can check the store in the kitchen.

Well done there.

You're awake.

Yeah. I was just wondering who was moving around.

And, er,

I also wanted a drink.

Well, come on, just as well.

You know.

Join me.

You know, I've always been looking forward to some

alone time with you.

Enjoy.

When I was lad,

my grandfather said something to me which stuck.

He said, erm,

Mekiunafe,

If you ever

have to choose between gold and a good woman,

choose the good woman,

every time.

I don't think I follow.

Why would anyone pick a woman over the gold?

As a man of substance, you go for the gold,

the women will follow.

The good ones?

Come on now.

You and I both know that they are no good ones.

They may come in all manner of shapes and sizes,

colors and smells.

But in the end,

women are women.

A very wise man,

my grandfather. You know, it was...

It was from him, I first heard this;

Don't cast your pearls before swine.

I see what you mean.

Look.

I don't think of Kama as swine at all.

I mean, if I did,

as a man of substance, I wouldn't even be here.

You understand?

Come with me.

Close the door behind you.

What's this place for?

It is where I come to have some fun.

But it's been a while.

You like meat, don't you?

Come on.

You know I like meat.

It's good to know.

You know, I sometimes take part in preparing meat

for the home.

It's a hobby of mine.

No, no.

It's actually more than a hobby.

Like you mean you actually, cook?

I cook.

But I prefer to

to hunt, to kill,

to cut, to chop.

You hunt?

Yyy...yes.

When I was a young man,

I used to hunt.

But now I have people who

hunt for me.

I like that.

A hunter is a real man of substance.

Just like a lion.

The lioness

to be specific,

is a better hunter

than the lion.

Come on now.

There's no way.

The male is way stronger.

Stronger, better.

Two different things.

The lion is, obvious.

His mane is a big giveaway.

So at best,

all he does is to help pull

his prey down.

But the lioness.

She's the real hunter.

Her skin color is a camouflage.

She waits,

then she creeps,

and she stalks.

And,

when the moment is right,

she strikes.

Hey, baby!

Isn't it fascinating how

a whole man of substance like you ends up in this situation?

Like a mere worm.

Yes. Yes, I think that'll be nice.

- But the turnout was good though. - It was good.

But it could be better. Yeah?

Way better.

You know, I actually liked you at the beginning,

before you showed your self.

Did you really think I'd be with a man who beats me?

A woman like me?

Stoop so low?

How does it feel now?

Mister man of substance.

I stayed with you,

because I knew that I would get to taste you someday

in a freshly prepared pot of Bima soup.

Yeah.

Another thing my grandfather told me was that,

Scared meat is sweet meat.

And on that note.

Go and get his things. Put them in his car.

You,

shower. Okay?

And rest. Okay?

Nobody.

Nobody messes with a Chezeta

and gets away with it.

You hit my daughter.

You hit my daughter.

Get rid of the car. Yeah?

As usual, Chief.

I'm going for a run, babe.

I love you.

I love you too.

- This is beautiful. - I'd not open that if I were you.

Scared me.

Sorry.

- Good morning. - Morning.

Sleep well?

Not really.

The room was comfy, but

it just takes me a while to get used to sleeping someplace else.

How about you?

Better than I have in a really long time.

That's good.

This is daddy's box.

No one touches daddy's box.

Not if you know what's good for you.

It was just too beautiful. Couldn't help myself.

What's inside?

Daddy's stuff.

Memorabilia.

You know, just things like that.

Noted.

No touching.

What are you doing here?

You scared me.

Sorry.

I'm sorry. I seem to be doing things I shouldn't today.

It's my husband's workspace.

What does he do in here?

- Cut meat. - Seriously?

I know, right? Men and their hobbies.

But I can't complain.

- Is something wrong? - No.

No.

Let's go back into the house, shall we?

Kama is cooking up something special.

Okay.

- Good morning, my love. - Good morning.

Good morning, mommy.

Mommy, we need to call Benjamin,

and then one of the cupboards just fell down again.

- Go ahead and call him. - Oh, okay. I will.

- I'm set to cook. So after this. - Okay.

What kind of meat is this?

This is real meat.

None of that nonsense you people eat in Salgo.

This is proper meat.

Omicha!

Omicha!

- Let me see what your father wants. - Okay.

Here.

Wanna try?

I like it.

It's got a very,

distinct taste.

Oh my god. This is so, so good.

I'm glad you approve.

I've got to take some with me back to Salgo.

You're making Bima?

Can I help?

Take him.

Stop!

The mark of the Chezetas.

Who brought him here?

Were you blind?

Didn't you see his mark?

What is all this about?

I don't understand. What are you saying?

Are you stupid or what?

Don't you know our customs?

High Priestess!

A true son of the soil

knows where not to walk during the festival.

- That's true. - Keep quiet!

Take him back, now!

As a man of substance,

you understand?

That was a long run, son.

- Are you alright? - Where's Nikiya?

- Oh, well. - Oh, my.

I'm sorry. We had her for lunch.

Yes dear, we were starving.

No.

No, no, no.

What have you done?

What did you do?

Hey.

What took you so long?

You're here.

I've been cooking in the kitchen. Where else would I be?

Your fiancée is quite a chef.

- You've been cooking? - Don't worry, son.

She made a safe version for you.

Vegetarian.

I finally found that one lion which eats grass.

Please, I need to talk to you.

I have something to tell you too. But you need to shower first.

Babe, please, right now.

I just need to finish dinner first.

- This can wait 10 minutes. - Nikki.

Okay.

My box.

Kama, my box, please.

Yes, daddy.

- Your box? Now? - Yeah.

- Go and shower. - My box, my house.

- Go. - Sorry.

Is everything okay?

I need you to listen to me very carefully.

You need to run away from here,

as fast as you can.

Mr. Ben, what are you talking about?

The box.

I made the box.

And I make boxes like that

for only certain families.

I need you to open the box.

What are you saying?

Ben, have you finished?

Ben?

Lord,

we are thankful, for this food

which we are about to consume,

which you have blessed us with.

Bless this food, O Lord.

Bless our souls.

Bless the hand that brought this food.

And bless all our endeavours.

Amen.

Amen!

Meki. Must this be on the table?

Yes.

I'm celebrating.

What are you celebrating, daddy?

Life and peace

symbolized by the New Yam festival.

- Excuse me. - Luc?

Stay.

You know,

many, many, many hundreds of years ago.

No.

What are you doing?

Pack your things. We're leaving here tomorrow.

No, we're not.

I said, pack your things.

Luc, we're not leaving tomorrow.

We agreed to stay the weekend.

Weekend is over.

No, the weekend is not over.

The weekend ends Sunday evening, we can leave Monday--

Oh, Nikiya.

We are leaving.

Why are you shouting? Calm down.

Listen to me.

We're leaving here tomorrow.

It's done.

Luc.

I need to tell you something.

I want my kids,

our kids,

to have their grandparents in their lives.

I need you to get over whatever it is that you have against your family.

Your parents are not always going to be here--

Okay, okay, okay.

Alright. I get it.

Your parents are dead. You're an only child.

I get it. But, for the love of God, Nikiya,

get over it.

My parents are my parents.

My family are my family.

And you will never be a part of this family.

Do you understand?

You should be thankful for that.

Please,

pack your bloody things because we are leaving here tomorrow.

Where the fuck is my--?

Fuck you.

Babe listen, let me tell you--

No. Nikiya, wait. Baby.

I-- Okay, I shouldn't have said--

Come on.

What is it?

New Yam festival weekend,

at this time of the year?

What can I say?

Late harvest.

How come?

God works in mysterious ways, bro.

Why did you not tell me?

I don't have to tell you anything.

When was the last time you told me anything?

Can I go now?

Okay, me I'm done.

So you're keeping trophies like him now, huh?

Someone has to continue the family tradition.

And clearly,

that someone

is not you.

I see I'm not the only one who is restless tonight.

You scared me.

What's the matter? Couple trouble?

Well, yes.

Yes. I guess you can call it that.

And the only solution is to run away?

I was just,

going to take a walk

around the compound.

I see.

All dressed up?

With the car key?

Fine.

I just want to leave.

You want to leave the village,

for the city?

In the middle of the night?

All by yourself?

Come on. You're smarter than that.

I didn't really think this through.

Hmmm.

Well.

I happen to be married to one of those creatures

you call, men.

I could give some sound counsel.

Come.

Sit.

Come on. I won't bite.

Come closer.

Spill.

The thing is, Mrs. Chezeta,

It's Mrs. Chezeta now, eh?

I'm your mother, more or less.

Mommy.

I don't think I should discuss it with you.

He doesn't like it when I discuss our problems

with people

without us trying to sort it out

between us first.

And the solution to sorting it out is running away?

Remember that Luc has a good heart.

You will both pull through this.

He loves you.

And he loves hard.

I'm glad I ran into you.

I should go to bed.

Good night, mommy.

Good night, my dear.

Did you bring me here to kill me?

Babe. I...

I brought you here to meet my parents like you wanted.

I saw a baggy in your father's box

labelled Man of Substance.

You and I know the only person who says that.

If I'm going to die at least, tell me the truth.

Where is Zeido?

He's dead, isn't he?

Babe.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

You know why I never wanted you to come here?

My people are cannibals.

Every New Yam festival,

they eat people.

I found out they had a late harvest this year.

And it landed on the same day as their anniversary.

I swear.

I didn't know.

I didn't know babe.

Come on, Nikiya.

I would never hurt you.

Luc,

I've been eating meat

since I got here.

Have you...?

When I was a child.

I didn't know.

It was...

I'm sorry.

I can't imagine what that must have felt like. I'm sorry.

After that night,

I swore off meat.

My father was beyond angry.

He threatened to kill me.

He's only son.

If it weren't for my mother I'd be dead.

I got captured yesterday.

They would have eaten me if I didn't have the mark.

The family brand.

- Jesus! - The mark on my back.

The night that we came here.

They would have eaten us if I didn't have the mark.

God.

Oh, God.

We need to leave, right now.

We need to...

We need to go.

We need to leave this place right now.

We need to pack.

And we need to go right now.

I don't want to spend one more minute in this village.

Are you going to help me?

We should act like nothing's happened.

Shower.

Do your routine stuff.

Wait a bit.

There must be an excuse to leave.

Otherwise it will be suspicious.

Tell them you got a contract or something. I don't care.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I thought you said we weren't meant to touch that.

Would you like to?

No.

Oh, it's okay. You can touch it.

No. Thank you.

My brother says you both are leaving this morning.

Something to do with a contract he just got?

- Yes. - Sad.

I really wanted us to be in-laws.

But you're so nosy.

Mama there are quicker ways to do this.

Good morning Leo.

I hear you're leaving us.

We're going to have that father-son talk we have been avoiding

before you leave.

Come.

Sit.

Can I get dressed first?

I'm sorry I had to do this.

But Kama is right.

You should have minded your own business.

I lost my son once,

but you brought him back.

You happened. And for that,

I am grateful.

Do you understand?

I will not lose my son again.

You are his happy, Nikiya.

Do you understand me?

But I will not let you leave

to tell people what you saw.

Good. Good.

Good girl.

I need to know I can trust you.

I need to be sure.

And for that.

You need to be one of our's.

Chow time.

Eat.

And then I will give you the mark of the Chezeta.

That way you will never turn on us.

And no one will ever hurt you.

Eat.

Eat. It's really only meat.

It's only meat.

I did it for my husband too.

You love Luc, don't you?

Then do this for him.

I am going to take this off.

But if you scream,

I will kill you.

- Here. - Please.

I think you'll like this cut.

It's nice

and tender.

Please. Please.

Please.

Don't be rude.

I made it myself.

Chew.

Swallow.

What was that?

What was what?

What are you up to, dad?

She'll be safe.

If she does what she needs to do.

- What are you doing to Nikiya? - You mean, what am I doing for you?

Let me through.

Let me through, dad.

Or?

Nikiya!

- Let me through, mom. - No, no, no.

- Let me through, mom. - No.

Don't make me shove you. Let me through.

No.

No, it wasn't supposed to be like this.

Indeed.

I swear,

I prefer blades.

But I still know how to use this.

I will make a mosaic of your brains on this wall right now

if you just test me.

Meki. Meki, please be careful with that thing. Please.

So I take it that she has refused to eat.

She tried.

She didn't try hard enough.

I know, I know.

Mommy. What did you do to Nikiya?

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

You. Back.

Back!

- Nikiya! - Hey!

Back. To the house.

Slowly.

Slowly.

Move.

You, go back and finish with her. Go.

I need to be sure that you are not going to kill my son.

I won't kill him.

If he proves that he's my son.

Move.

Move.

Yeah. I see,

you're still a lion.

My son is in here somewhere.

Yes.

I'll never be your son.

I'll never be like you.

But, why?

Am I a monster?

You have my blood running inside of you.

You're going to be my son.

Starting now.

Just, just, just...

Keep your head steady.

Come on, keep it.

Please, please.

Kama, please. Let me go.

You're distracting me.

Please.

Change of plans.

Time to roast.

Mama says to bleed you out mid-roast.

But don't worry. I'll slit your throat.

And I'll make it quick, okay?

I promise I'll make it quick.

You won't suffer.

At least for the sake of my brother. Right?

I need him to know you didn't suffer.

Okay?

Please, please, please, please.

I'm begging you in God's name, please.

I'm begging you. I'm not going to tell anybody I was here.

Please, I'm begging you Kama. Please.

You should have just eaten it.

Kama, I'm pregnant.

I'm carrying your brother's child.

You're good.

You're good.

But I know your game.

So you and Luc,

have decided to use me for pillow talks.

Right?

- You mock me. - No.

I swear, Kama.

So Luc told you

that I cannot have kids.

- And you decide to taunt me with it? - No.

Thank you for making this easy.

Please, I'm begging you--

Please, please don't kill me.

Please don't kill me. I beg you in God's name.

Please don't eat me. Don't eat me. I'm begging you. Please, please.

I don't want, I don't want to eat you.

I don't want to eat you.

Come on.

Let's go.

I'm going to give you my shirt.

Wear that.

Hurry.

What's wrong with you?

Must you hit him?

What is it?

What is it?

It's only meat.

I can't watch this anymore.

Why are you fighting this? Why?

It's not as if you've not had this before.

Eat it. You will love it.

Eat it.

It is only meat.

Eat it. Eat it.

Let us go.

Wait.

My fiancé, Luc.

- We need to save him. - No, we don't.

This is his family.

They'll sort themselves out.

Truth is, it is better for you. Now let's go.

No, no. Please, you don't understand.

He's different. He never wanted to come back here. I made him come.

Please if I abandon him, I'll never forgive myself.

Please, please, please.

Please.

Eat it.

Eat it.

Eat it.

There. That's it.

Yeah, that's all.

Yeah. That's my boy.

Flesh of my... Eat it.

That's all.

Yeah, that's all.

That, that's it.

That, that's it. Eat, eat, eat, eat.

Chew, chew, chew it.

Chew it.

Chew, chew, chew it.

Yeah. It's just meat.

It's just meat.

Eat.

Eat it.

Get your man.

Please. Please.

- No. - Gun.

Luc!

Luc.

Luc.

Stop. Luc!

Luc!

Luc!

Luc!

Luc, he was...

He was...

He was trying to save you.

Everything is her fault.

You shouldn't let her live.

It is all your fault.

He, he tried to kill me.

They, they tried to kill me.

- You killed my father. - To save you.

Ben freed me, and I could have left you.

- Your sister even tried to kill me. - What?

What? What have you done to my Kama? What have you done--?

- She's dead. - You killed my Kama?

- You killed Kama? - No, I didn't.

She's lying. Are you going to let her live?

I told you.

I told you, I didn't want to come to this place.

I'm sorry. But you pushed, and pushed.

Honey, believe me. I am sorry.

You're right.

Now, see what you've done.

Honey, I need to tell you something.

I need to tell you something please.

Shut her bloody mouth. Shut your mouth.

I'm pregnant.

What?

I only found out yesterday morning.

I tried to tell you.

Luc, she's lying.

Luc, please. I'm carrying your child.

I'm carrying your child.

Remember?

Remember how many times we talked about this?

Having our own family?

Our very own family.

- Luc, please. - She's lying. She's lying, Luc.

I begged Kama. I explained to her.

I tried to explain to her but she didn't believe me.

She said I was mocking her because you told me that she couldn't have children.

- Niki, I never told you. - That's what I told her.

But she didn't believe me. She wanted to slit my throat.

She wanted to kill your child.

She's lying, Luc. Can't you see?

You're saying the truth.

Baby. Please let's...

Let's leave this place.

Let's leave this mess for good, please.

Your father was right.

You are just a weak man.

Enough, mom.

- Give me that. - Mom.

- Mom. - Give me that.

Mom, please.

- Luc. - Don't come close to me.

I'm a murderer.

I'm a cannibal.

Please.

None of this is your fault, please.

Please.

Please.

I killed a man.

I killed my mother.

And I almost killed my child.

Luc, baby.

This was not your fault.

Baby, it wasn't your fault, baby.

Oh, Niki.

I'd kiss you right now.

- Baby. - But I can still taste it.

- Baby. - The meat.

Luc Chezeta.

I love you.

I love you.

But I have to keep you safe.

Please put the gun down.

- Please put the gun down. - I'm finished.

- It's over for me. - Baby.

Please.

Please.

Good day, sister.

I see you're by yourself today.

A lioness.

No one will ever bother you again.

This is now your home.

You can come to Kwasa anytime.

Drive safe, sister.
