Come in, please. Take a seat.

Tell me...

How can I help you?

I'm looking for a job.

You're looking for a job.

- What's your name? - My name is Jean Remy Genty.

Jean, what kind of job are you looking for?

In accounting.

Did you bring your resume?

- Yes. - Let me see it.

His name is Jean Remy.

Okay.

Give me an I.D. please.

You can come in.

Thanks.

I need to speak with you in private.

You need to talk in private?

Right now?

- Yes. - Okay, come on.

And now you have this other problem?

Yes, because they're kicking me out of the room I live in.

I don’t know where to go.

And what do you need? What’s the problem?

I need money.

How much do you need?

- One hundred dollars. - One hundred?

Yes, one hundred.

I don’t think I have with me...

one hundred dollars but I could help you…

Thirty is all I can give you.

That should help.

It's very little but let's see.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Oh Lord,

You who created us.

You know everything our soul needs.

Please give us what we need to survive.

Give us all we need, Lord.

Forgive our sins,

Teach us to adore you truthfully in our souls.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) God bless us all.

- God bless us all. - Amén.

How many of you are happy to be here?

Amen.

- Are you happy to be here? - Amén.

Clap your hands to thank God.

The Bible explains

that people who come close to God must believe that God exists.

That means that even before you come to me you must believe that he exists.

Even before you go to God because you have a problem

you must believe your problem will be solved.

It’s not enough to say you believe in God,

Your actions must prove you believe in Jesus.

People who do evil also believe in Jesus, but they don’t follow God’s will.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) This is my brother from church.

Can you let him sleep here? Can you do that for him?

No problem.

You’re the night watchman here, right?

Yes, you know the rate is 3 dls.

Give him 3 dls. for tonight.

- Why 3 dls.? - Give them to him.

You need a place to spend the night.

What do you do?

I'm an accountant.

But I can speak English, French... Spanish.

- So what do you do for living? - What?

- So what do you do for living? - I'm not living life.

I only see other people living. I’m alive but I’m not really living.

I’m not really alive.

I'm always sad.

I'm always sad, watching other people live.

When I see people laughing, I don’t understand.

Sometimes I ask myself how can they laugh.

I don't know, I can't do anything.

I have no means to live, I’ve lost faith. I don’t know how I’m going to go on living.

Do you want to work?

Yes, I do want to work.

I'm very willing to work.

Come tomorrow morning.

I know the boss.

I’ll tell him to give you a job.

- You’ll find a job for me? - Yes.

Come in. Try to make yourself comfortable.

It's not too good, but you can spend the night.

Good night.

So, you've come from Santo Domingo?

Yes, sir.

- What did you do there, in the city? - I taught English and French.

(Speaking in English) So you speak English?

(Speaking in English) Yes, I do.

That's good then, so we can talk in English.

You liked it today? It was good today.

Yes? You understand me?

Yes, I understand you.

You have to work hard, sweat to get some money.

Me too, I like to...

I am hard worker.

I believe you if I feel like it, but I'm gonna tell you something.

When I was 17, I was already living with a woman,

And 6 months later I got rid of her, and then I got another one.

So I don’t understand your problem. Maybe you’re too religious, is that it?

Are you one of those people that goes to church every Sunday?

Yes.

That’s the thing.

What?

That's the thing.

In church they prepare you,

they make you a serious man.

But you haven’t found a woman at church?

- No. - So what is that good for?

I’m going to introduce you to a cousin of mine tonight, don’t worry.

But you have to make a pass at her,

Maybe you don’t know how to talk to women, you have to say pretty things.

- I always say pretty things. - But you have to grab their ass too.

You have to be sassy and grab their ass.

You understand?

To be able to… because women like all that,

You understand?

I have to look you in the eye, I can’t believe you’ve never…

It can’t be.

Nothing.

You’re more handsome than I am. How can that be?

Handsome?

They all say I’m ugly.

And you let them screw you with that?

Yes.

My cousin is very nice, but you have to make the move.

I do this to help you. I don't usually do this. You understand?

You seem like a good man, a serious man,

...with bad luck. Is that what you mean?

But you make your own bad luck.

- That’s something that’s in your head. - In my head?

Of course…you make your own bad luck.

Put your head up, look at me.

I’m talking to you.

You're very shy.

Don't be afraid.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Dear Lord,

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) You who created the earth and the sky.

Before creating man you put food at his disposal.

I thank you for this meal you have given me.

I ask you to distribute it

amongst those that don’t have any.

Also, give my family something to eat.

Lord, three times Saint, Honorable Celestial Father,

I ask you to take this headache away from me.

You who knows how you made my head.

You know how this sickness is,

Perform an operation on me.

And let me know it was you who did it,

and took away this pain.

What are you doing there?

Are you stealing?

Are you stealing from my plantation?

- I'm just taking a yam. - A yam?

- Yes, a yam I'm taking. - This is my plantation.

- It's yours? - Yes.

What's your name?

What's your name?

I'm Jean Remy Genty.

- Jean Remy Genty? - I'm professor Jean Remy Genty.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Are you from Haiti?

- Yes, I'm Haitian. - How did you get here?

I was just passing.

This plantation is mine.

I'd like to have one myself, just like this one.

I’m not the owner, I just take care of it.

It’s the man’s for whom I work with.

Can I take a yam? God will pay you back.

Yes, you can take one, but hurry,

the owner is coming later.

Hurry up.

Thanks.

You see that road on the hill? I’m making it.

You see that road on the hill? I’m making it. I live around there.

- It’s you who’s making it? - Yes, it’s me who’s making that road.

I live around there. You have to pass that way to get to my house.

If you go down that road, you go straight to where I live.

Not many peolpe live around here.

Jean Remy,

If you don’t catch one of these coconuts, you can’t drink any.

If you catch it, it’s yours. If you don’t catch it’s not.

Come, come. Stand there.

Come stand down here, man.

Come catch this. Or you can't drink any!

You can't drink any!

If you don’t catch it you can’t drink.

Professor.

I'd like you to teach me...

to speak some Creole.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) This is a yam.

Yam.

You know...

Repeat after me.

I give you this yam...

- When you eat it... - When you eat it...

you'll remember me.

- What? - You think of me.

You'll think of me.

Go on.

You want me to speak Creole with you.

But you said you could speak Creole.

I just sat with the teacher, and he taught me that.

So we're going to speak Creole now, you and I?

After three more lessons.

But you told me you could speak Creole already.

So now we're going to speak Creole.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Yanmarco, how are you?

Good.

Go on.

Does that mean you’re gonna seduce her?

I don't know.

Since I can’t speak Creole, you're going to seduce her?

- I didn’t say that. - Let me ask you a question.

You and I are supposed to be friends.

If I have such a hard time winning a haitian girl’s heart,

would you have the nerve to take her from me?

- Just because we are both from Haiti. - You're a bully.

You're the bully who's taking the girl from my country.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me.

Are you listening?

Help me...

kill myself.

No one is going to notice.

Go to bed and rest.

We'll talk tomorrow.

Who is this guy?

I don't know, I found him in the plot.

He told me he's a professor; he said he could speak several languages.

You should've told me first.

- You weren't here. - You should've waited until I arrived.

He was at the plot taking some yams,

he told me he was hungry.

Polo, I don't see anything good in this guy.

It's okay, he's just staying for dinner, and then he's leaving.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Oh, Lord.

You who created us.

You finally gave me a house to live in.

But now Lord,

You take it away again.

I don’t know what to do.

Why, Lord?

What have I done?

That I shouldn't have done.

Tell me, Lord.

If I could fly to the sky,

so I could find a place

for myself.

I would fly.

But I can't reach the sky.

I don't know where to go now, Lord.

I don't know what I'm gonna do.

I'm leaving and don't know what to do.

Do something. Help me find a small place that would belong to me.

Where I could live...

with a content heart.

What do you want?

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) Ti fi.

- What did you say? - Ti fi.

Man, I can't speak Creole.

All this time we've spent together.

But you don't teach me.

When I still didn't speak Spanish,

every day I had to buy a beer

for a guy to teach me.

Now you want me to teach you? Go buy me a beer.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

(Speaking in Haitian Creole) I give you this yam...

so when you eat it, you think of me.

Thank you, I will pray for you.

Thank you,

Professor.
