How goes everything?

All is fine.

Rest.

Rest in peace.

God be with us.

Nouofia,

tell me.

Would I be frightened by a dog?

In the night, he is a little white stain running towards us,

me and you,

barking like a demon.

His bark is both ferocious like a lion,

and squeaky like a little mouse.

Nouofia, you know if he's big, we have to run.

If he's small,

a kick will do the trick.

Do I fight?

Or do I run?

I stand there watching.

I stay there watching.

I stay there wondering. Too late to run, brother.

Will you bite my thigh?

Or would you prefer my thigh?

Or would you prefer to die, you doggy?

White man's fantasy are the Black man's nightmare.

And the wind has risen,

and I'm with you, Nouofia.

-Moses. -Yeah?

It's here.

-Moses. -Yeah?

I'm gonna need your help over here.

I can't make sense of any of this.

It's in Chinese.

I need you to help me figure it out, okay?

-I gotta go get ready. -I'll take care of it.

I knew I saw someone.

My name is Alboury, sir.

I am here for my brother's body.

Are you from the police...

or did the village send you?

I'm here to collect Nouofia's body.

My brother.

I'm Alboury, sir.

At this time of night?

His mother will wander the village wailing all night

if she cannot get the body of her son back.

Terrible night, sir.

It was a terrible incident.

T-Terrible... uh, incident.

I agree. It was an awful... an awful accident,

speeding bulldozer.

The driver was, uh...

he was reckless, and he'll be punished.

You know, it's funny, our... our, uh...

our workers are often careless in spite of our instructions.

But you'll have the body tomorrow, I promise you that.

He was brought into the infirmary...

to fix it up a bit.

You know, for the sake of the family.

To help them overcome their grief.

I'm very sorry. It was just a...

Just a very unfortunate accident.

Unfortunate?

Yes and no.

They said the work site is about to close,

and my brother would have lost his job.

So, in the end,

that makes one less mouth to feed.

Well, this work site is not closing.

Uh, there may be some changes in management.

I've never seen you around here.

Come on, why don't you have a whiskey with me?

Don't stand there behind the fence.

I can barely see you!

You know, why don't I get him to open the gate

and you come sit with me on the veranda, huh?

Well, we're on excellent terms with the police

and the local authorities, so...

everything should work out fine.

Since construction here began,

I've heard a lot about you, sir.

So, I thought now is the time to meet this white man in person.

Your English is excellent.

You Africans have such a great gift for language.

Are you some kind of, uh...

government official or...

c-civil servant?

I mean, you have that elegance.

And you also seem to...

know more than you let on.

That's a lot of compliments.

Compliments are useful at first.

Yes.

You know, it's strange.

The village usually sends a delegation

and we wrap things up quickly.

Yeah.

Usually, it's, uh... Well, it's more solemn.

But faster.

8 to 10 people.

9 or 10 brothers of the deceased.

I'm used to a...

a quick transaction.

And if the family is looking for compensation,

well paid, of course.

As long as they don't go overboard.

But you...

You, sir...

I don't think I've ever seen you before.

I have come only for the body, sir.

And I will leave once I have it.

The body. Yes, yes, of course.

Well, you'll have it first thing in the morning.

You'll have to excuse my nervousness.

You see, my wife's arriving tonight,

and I'm afraid having a woman on this site

will be quite a disruption.

A very good disruption, having a woman here.

You see...

I got married recently.

Very recently, in fact.

It's not even official.

There's so much, uh...

I don't know, so many... formalities.

I'm not used to it.

Hey.

Come on to the veranda and have a whiskey with me

while I wait for her.

I'll be delighted to introduce you.

Come on, show yourself!

I can barely see you.

Impossible, sir.

Look at the guards up there.

They're watching me.

Surveilling me.

If they see me sitting on your veranda,

they'll get suspicious.

Well, they already let you through the first gate.

Normally, you need a pass.

Unless...

you're a government official...

and they know it.

Sir, the guards know

that we cannot let the mother

wail all night and all day tomorrow.

They know that only by giving the body of her son back

can we calm her.

They know why I came.

It's difficult for our mothers

to recover the bodies of their sons

killed on your site, squashed into the earth.

Fine.

We'll have the body brought to you tomorrow.

You know, you don't seem to get it.

A man like me living with a woman is senseless.

There's nothing senseless about women.

Marriage will do you good.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, I've never shared my life with anyone.

It's always been this... work, work.

Sir, don't stand there, lurking in the shadows.

I prefer the softness of the shadows.

Really?

Well, I need the light. Please, come in.

I cannot, sir.

My eyes cannot stand bright lights.

They're not used to the powerful lights you use at night.

Okay, look, I...

I will be honored, sir,

to introduce you to my wife when she finally gets here.

I will see her from a distance, sir.

Oh, Jesus, man...

Fuck the fuck off...

My head is about to explode.

Of all the nights...

you pick the night my wife comes.

Picking someone up from the airport.

Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Hello. Are you Leone?

Uh, yeah. Who are you?

-I'm Cal. -I'm here to pick you up.

Horn isn't here?

No, he's getting the house ready for your arrival.

Champagne, fireworks, the lot.

Come on.

Ah, that scent of warm earth.

Seatbelt.

Come on, you fucker!

I don't have AC, so you just got to keep the window open

and eat dust.

Okay.

Nothing gets thrown away here.

I thought you'd be different.

Different how?

You're small.

Wee dickheads.

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

So many cows!

They're called zebus.

Hi!

They're so cute.

"Babe"?

You mind if I smoke?

D'you want one?

So, how'd you meet Horn?

In London.

He was being treated for his accident.

At the hospital?

-Yeah. I'm a nurse's aide. -I work nights.

Ohh.

So, you're like a... a maid?

Horn's little slavey.

Yeah, Horn's slavey.

He bought me.

I'm here at last.

You'll need real shoes here.

I blew it all at duty-free.

-Oh, fuck! -You hit it!

You drive like a maniac!

Relax. I didn't kill it.

It's hit the ground.

Oh... shit.

Who are those assholes?

Those are the assholes who lay the oil pipes.

He's still alive.

Not anymore, it's not.

Come on, babe.

Yeah, I know.

Crack of fuckin' doom.

-Come on, babe. -It had blue feathers.

Let's go.

-Don't push me. -And don't call me babe.

It had blue feathers.

I feel like a tiny grain sand here.

You are.

Curfew's at 6:00.

You'll be fine inside the compound, though.

There's nothing to worry about there.

I'm so tired.

Just waiting to see how fast this latitude

saps all the juice out of us, babe.

I hear an engine.

I don't hear anything.

Listen carefully.

There's a pickup coming.

It's your wife.

I'll see you in my office tomorrow.

I will leave when I have the body.

Welcome home.

Everyone's armed here.

Yeah, we have a lot of trouble here, babe.

Horn will tell you more about it, he's the boss.

Spotty!

You're late.

Cook left your dinner in the pantry.

Moses, have you seen my dog?

No.

There's a doggy?

Yeah.

And he's mine.

Spot!

Come on, lad, where are ya?

Hey.

Hey.

Come here.

Hi.

Come here.

I missed you. I missed you so much.

Hey.

I'm sorry I couldn't be there to pick you up.

I'd have preferred you, but it's okay.

Come on, let me show you.

It's a lot nicer by daylight. You'll see tomorrow.

It's spectacular.

-Hi! -Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you.

Well, there were no curtains, so I, uh...

put this up.

-Yeah. -Looks good.

Yeah...

Oh, and uh...

I emptied this for you.

Put my things in, uh... in my office.

-Yeah, I... was ridiculous. -I brought literally everything.

Well, you were right to.

Um...

Look, um...

There's no obligation if you want to...

sleep alone tonight.

I got a cot in my office.

Well...

You know, there's only one bathroom.

You think you're gonna like it here?

Yeah, I know I will.

I'm so happy to hear that.

Oh! Hey, hey, hey.

Whoa.

Just got dizzy. Everything is spinning.

No, no, no, no, no.

-Yeah, I need to unpack. -No, no, no, no, no.

There's plenty of time for that.

Hey.

It was that last little plane, it's just knocked me out.

Yeah. Hey.

Why don't you lay down?

No, no. It's fine. I...

I get this, like...

pit... in my stomach every evening.

Yeah?

Mm-hmm.

It's crazy.

I, uh...

I bought you, um...

some champagne, but I...

It's not gonna do you any good.

-No. -How 'bout a whiskey?

-That'll be good to settle your stomach. -No, no, no, no, no.

No whiskey. I need to...

take my pills.

What's that?

They're my pills.

Whoa!

It's a pharmacy in there.

Well...

you won't be needing the dispensary.

I'll get you some water.

There's not much coverage here.

Thank you.

Okay.

Of course, there's going to be...

tons of stuff that I don't need,

and I've forgotten all the things that I do need.

People don't tend to like me at first.

Oh, come on.

Come on. That's not true.

Hey.

Hey. We're not gonna be here forever.

Okay?

And the only other people around here...

Well, Cal's staying here.

You may not even see any of the other people.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, you smell that?

It's the smell of Europe.

It's gonna take me...

a very long time to air out these clothes.

Yeah, well, there's plenty of that.

I can't believe I'm finally here.

Well...

You'll see tomorrow. This...

This place is giant.

I've been longing to be with you.

-What is that? -Hmm?

That's the watchmen.

They, uh...

They call out to each other all night.

It's their code.

Scary.

No.

It means all's well.

I need to tell you something.

Uh...

Before I got on the plane the other night,

I walked around my neighborhood for, like, one last time, and...

all of a sudden, I just felt...

like, so terribly...

happy to be joining you here,

but I get this thing when...

I don't like feeling too happy or too good

because then, I think that something bad is gonna happen.

And it's like I have this, like, backwards intuition.

-Well, nothing... -nothing's gonna happen here.

Me and my dark thoughts.

I just have to trust you.

You'll trust me.

Yeah.

We all have dark thoughts.

I'm gonna have to leave you for a minute.

I won't be long.

I have to settle up something with one of my men,

and then we'll have dinner.

Fireworks.

Okay, but don't leave me alone for long.

Mm. I hope Cal left enough water in the tank.

I'm gonna like sleeping here with you.

Yeah.

Hey, hey.

Hey...

What is it?

Huh?

I just...

I just feel moved. I'm sorry.

It's just that...

my life has changed so radically.

I know.

I know, I know.

Mine, too.

It's...

so unreal here.

No.

It's very real.

You'll see.

How's it going up there?

Bad material.

Yeah.

Piece of crap.

Okay, where were we?

Okay, right. Now, I remember. Yeah.

A worker died, right?

Well, it's unfortunate,

but sir, it happens all the time.

I mean, workers die on construction sites.

Working has a price.

Yeah.

For your information...

in my site, here,

we've stayed within the norms.

I just want to clarify that.

I can't hear you.

I didn't say anything.

Oh, God. You know, I'm beginning to lose my patience.

I mean, you got to admit

that you're particularly difficult to deal with.

You're impossible to negotiate with.

You're... you're staying here, right?

Is that what you're doing?

It seems what you're doing.

Is that what you want to do?

I mean, it's your prerogative.

You're welcome to stay here.

Enjoy the fireworks.

I am not waiting for fireworks, sir.

Now, listen, sir.

Understand me. Okay?

I have no say in the ultimate decision making process.

Okay? That's on management.

The foreman decides nothing.

I have no responsibility. Do you get it?

I mean, look at me.

I mean, take a look at me. I mean...

I started at the bottom.

I've been working on construction sites like this

my entire life.

Not that dissimilar

to this... this gentleman.

I'm sorry. Remind me his name.

Nouofia is the name he went by.

Right.

Oi.

Where are you going?

I'm leaving.

No, you're not.

No, you've still got an hour left.

You're not leaving yet.

I'm leaving, anyway.

Oi.

I said you're not fucking leaving.

Something smells really good.

Your meal is in the pantry.

Oh, yeah. I saw, thank you.

Either of you want a cigarette?

This is one sad little garden.

Not tonight.

I said tomorrow.

If she sees you, uh...

you know, pacing around out here,

you're going to frighten her.

Your wife will not be frightened, sir.

I just want to bring back the body to the family.

Tell the family I'll give them $150.

And I'll give you $200 tomorrow.

Now, this is probably the last wrongful death

that I'll be brokering on this site.

When the Chinese take over...

yeah, you won't be negotiating in dollars.

I promise you that.

I will tell them $150.

But I'm bringing back the body tonight.

Tell 'em $300.

Do you really think they care about the body?

Icare about the body.

Alright.

Look, I know... it's serious, right?

A worker died,

and I'm not making light of it.

No, not at all.

But it's something that can happen

at any time on a construction site.

If it wasn't him, it would've been somebody else.

Look, it's serious. I know it's serious.

But construction site casualties are a reality.

But as I've said earlier...

our fatality rate...

Feel free.

You brought a shitload of stuff.

Get out of my room.

Your room, is it?

You left that in my car.

Say thank you.

Thank you.

I guess you know about his injury.

Yeah.

That's a nasty wound.

He hit the jackpot with the insurance money, though.

But I guess you know that, too.

Yep.

You do know what he lost?

Yeah, I know.

He's a really good fuck.

A dick less fuck.

I left you some water, babe.

Have a nice shower.

Little prick.

Moses.

Moses.

Moses!

Can you serve dinner?

We are waiting for the bus.

I'm staying.

I'll make you leave.

You will not, sir.

I want to keep working, Horn.

Have you forgotten everything that we've done?

Does all of that mean nothing to you now?

And you owe me, Horn, you fuckin' owe me big time.

Alright, that's enough.

Give it.

Cal, come here.

There's a man here from the police,

or from the village, or maybe somewhere worse.

I've never seen him before, but he's got a score to settle.

Okay?

Now, listen to me. I'm not getting involved.

Do you understand?

She's not gonna last here, you know.

A woman like that.

I mean, look at yourself.

Just...

at least go and get changed.

She's no ordinary woman.

Yeah?

Well, I'm no ordinary man.

Hm.

I covered your ass with your work accident.

-Yeah? -Now, you cover mine, yeah?

No.

-No. -Yeah.

Not this time.

Hey, look.

My work is through here.

Now's not the time to be splitting up, Horn.

It's not. Just write a police report,

and then you sign it, and they'll believe you.

They will. They'll believe you.

Sit down.

Sit down.

-They saw your gun. -No... I'm just telling you.

-They'll listen to you. -They'll listen to you!

Come on, Horn.

Come on.

Just...

Hey, hey. Listen. Hey.

Come on. Look, wherever you go, yeah,

to another site, just take me with you.

-Just keep me. Keep me! -Hey! Listen!

There's not gonna be another site.

No.

Enough.

Without me, you wouldn't even have

any of that insurance money.

And without any of that insurance money,

do you think that woman would have followed you here?

Just help me, Horn.

Please.

I can hear him breathing.

I can feel his breath.

I'm gonna fuck this guy over, okay?

-You'll fuck him over? -Yep.

I'm gonna fuck him over. But just trust me.

Yeah.

Okay.

If you say you'll fuck him over, then I'll trust you.

But you can just tell him the truth.

-The truth? -Yeah.

Yeah, we were all looking up at the sky...

and me and the... me and the workers and my dog...

could smell the storm coming.

And just at that moment, a man just ran across the site.

Right as the storm broke.

And I started shouting for my dog.

"Spot, Spot, come back! Come back, Spot!"

But he didn't.

His nose went up in the air and his hair stood on end.

He could smell death.

And it turned him on.

I could see him running for the man in the pouring rain,

and I'm going after him, I'm shouting his name,

I'm shouting, "Spot!"

But then, right in that moment...

in the middle of all that ruckus...

I see... I see this lightning bolt,

this huge fucking lightning bolt.

We all see it.

And we see the guy fall.

I mean...

I mean, you can't make it up, Horny.

In the middle of the downpour,

he gets struck by lightning.

Right.

And the sound of this bulldozer speeding towards him...

He fell.

-Right. -Yeah.

It was a gunshot.

And everybody heard it.

No.

No, no, no, no. Horn, Horn, listen.

The gunshot, yeah, that was... that was the storm.

It was the thunder. We were all blinded by the rain.

I may not have gone to school,

and I may not have gotten a degree in engineering like you,

but I know bullshit when I hear it

and nobody's gonna buy it.

-Stop your fucking yapping! -Nobody's gonna buy it!

-That's all you do. -You yap, yap, yap.

I know what you do.

You use your words and you screw people over.

Yeah, that's right, I use words!

They teach you that in school?

The only thing you know how to do...

is shoot that gun, and look where that got you.

He was trying to leave the site an hour early,

and I said, "No, you don't do that,

you don't leave an hour early,"

because you always say...

you always say an hour is important.

So, I said, "No. It's a no."

-Right. -So, that's why you shot him.

And then, he spat at my fucking feet!

And I said, "Do you see that, boys?

He's trying to leave the site

without waiting for the whistle."

And they said, "Yes, boss,

without waiting for the whistle."

"And I don't think he's wearing a helmet.

Is he wearing a helmet?"

"No. No, boss, he's not wearing a helmet."

No helmet.

And the bulldozer's already speeding

towards the man with no helmet.

Fuckin' guy wasn't wearing a helmet.

He was not wearing a helmet, okay?

Give me the body without the helmet.

Why don't they follow the rules?

How can we be responsible for a man not wearing a helmet?

Give it to me as is, with no helmet.

Stay or don't stay.

But if you're going to stay, stop this little game of yours.

Okay?

It's really unpleasant, you know...

feeling your presence here.

Really.

Now, if you want, come join us for a drink.

But if not, leave, and then meet me in my office tomorrow,

and we'll settle this in the light of day.

Huh?

Well...

You know, actually, I'd prefer it if you left.

Yeah.

Now, I've offered you my hospitality

and you've refused it, which is fine.

Just meet me in my office

and we'll settle this over a cup of coffee.

-I'm here for the body. -That's all I want, sir.

I said I will leave once I have the body of my brother.

Well...

Your brother wasn't wearing a helmet.

Okay?

And there were witnesses.

He walked right across without a helmet.

And the insurance is not going to cover that.

No.

Tell the family.

I will tell the family when I bring back the body.

No helmet, no money.

-I wanted to see your office. -Yeah?

What do you think?

It's nice.

Well, I can't open the infirmary at night,

and my wife is in there waiting for me.

Give me a night!

It's a... it's a small thing to ask.

A night spent waiting is a small thing?

Exactly.

A night spent waiting, it's just a small thing to ask, sir!

Oftentimes, people want a small thing,

something very simple.

But it is what they really want

and nothing will make them change their minds.

And even if someone were to kill them,

they would still want it.

Even in death,

they still crave it.

This man...

this brother...

why does he matter so much to you?

Not long ago, we were in a courtyard...

my brother, Nouofia, and I.

I told him I felt the cold.

He answered that he, too, was freezing.

I said to him

the culprit must be the little cloud between us and the sun.

I asked my brother, "When will this cloud vanish

so the sun can warm us up again?"

And my brother said to me...

Your brother, your brother, your brother, your brother.

That's all you can talk about.

Why are you afraid of the word "brother"?

Tell me what your boss wants.

I have no boss.

You know...

I think I'll have you shot...

by the watchmen...

if you don't get out of here now.

The watchmen will not fire at me.

You've refused...

You've refused to have a drink to toast my wife.

You've refused to come meet me in my office tomorrow.

And you don't want to leave.

You've refused every kind offer I've made!

Nouofia's body is what I'm waiting for...

sir.

My brother's body.

The people at the ministry are going to be furious!

Just so you understand, I hold...

I carry no weight in high-level decision-making.

I'm just a construction-site boss

with no real say in anything.

Nothing.

No responsibility.

You're being conned, Horn.

I wish I could hear what you're saying.

I know you're setting me up.

-He's bluffing. -Just politics.

You talk, you talk, and you talk,

but your words don't work with him.

Don't you understand?

You're an idiot. You're a fucking idiot!

I mean, I know I am, as well,

but at least I'm a man of action.

Come on!

While I talk to him, you just go find the body.

Don't argue with me. Just do it.

Find the body.

Come up with all these lies, man?

The guards... they'll see me and they'll testify against me.

-The guards... -I can't with all this light.

The guards aren't going to do anything.

They're not going to move.

They won't see a thing.

Just make it look like an accident. Prove it.

-Help me prove it. -Please.

You're my guest here.

Yeah.

For me, hospitality has always been the...

the golden rule.

While you're here on neutral ground...

you have nothing to fear.

Just give me the body of my brother,

and I will go.

I do not fear a thing.

Another evening wasted, Horn.

Another evening spent pissing around.

So much for a celebration.

The only fireworks I've seen tonight is that

cloud of dead fucking bugs.

He's unarmed, Cal.

Listen. Go get the body, okay?

While I keep him waiting. Don't discuss.

Just do it. Figure it the fuck out.

Otherwise, we'll have the whole goddamn village on our ass.

The police, the riot.

Just do it.

Get the body and bring it to me while it's still dark.

It's almost daybreak.

Come on, old man.

Don't leave me.

Don't abandon me, yeah?

Come on.

Will the lights come back on?

I don't know.

The road lights were cut.

What are they saying now?

Our lights were cut.

They say it's fine.

Okay.

Let's get it over with.

Bring it here while those lights are still out.

You owe me.

I owe you?

I don't owe you shit.

Youoweme.

I gave you everything, Horn.

I should have stayed in oil.

There's something classy about oil.

You know, you look at... you look at

the oilmen who work the rigs, and they... they...

they look down on us because they know

that they're the top dogs.

I always loved oil.

Everything that comes from under the ground turns me on.

Do you remember?

But our roads, our... our bridges.

I don't care, man.

They don't do anything for me. They disgust me now.

I mean, what even are we on with public-works projects?

What does that even mean?

Compared to oilmen, we are nothing.

We're worse than nothing.

We just squirm around on the surface like maggots.

Fuck the oil and fuck the bridges.

Do what I told you to do!

Leone.

She's the one, Horn.

She's the one who ruined everything.

Why did you bring her here?

Leone.

She's the one who ruined it, Horn.

We don't need a woman.

Why did you bring her in?

Bring me a body, any body!

That's an order!

-Obey! -Why should I?

The man you obey is standing out there.

I can hear him gritting his teeth.

I'll kill him! I'll fucking kill him!

He's driving you crazy!

You're a demolisher.

That's all they taught you at that fancy school

is demolition methods.

I'm a builder.

-You hurt me. -You fucking hurt me!

It's me. I-It's Cal.

-Don't stay there. -Please.

I just need to be alone.

-Horn, it's me. -Can I come in?

Are you okay?

I didn't come here to be shut out.

Just say something, please.

Come and have a drink with me.

I need to drink water...

alone.

All you got to do is ask.

I used to only drink milk.

Don't touch me.

You killed that worker.

Nobody even knew who he was.

They're not going to ask questions.

He kept saying he wanted to go home, and I said, "You can't.

You can't just leave whenever you feel like it."

So you kill him?

Babe, are you really gonna wear these shoes?

My shoes?

We're gonna talk about my shoes?

He was lying on the ground, and the bulldozer came.

So he was crushed.

Do I scare you?

No.

But the man out there claims it was you who killed the worker.

You know, a good shoe here should have ankle protection.

Babe...

Poor baby.

You know, I touched ground here, too, once.

With a head full of fake expectations, like you.

I know how disappointing it is.

I'm not disappointed.

You disgust me.

Whew!

How sweaty I am.

I know you're just here for the money.

It's very smart. It's quite a windfall.

-You were right to follow him. -I see right through you.

You're just jealous.

So you just came here for him then, babe?

Stop calling me "babe."

I think you got Horn in trouble.

I heard what that man out there is demanding.

Is that right?

Okay, then, babe.

Alright, I'll do what Horn said.

I'll obey.

There's pleasure in a job well done.

That is a pleasure that's solid.

Solid bridge,

a road that doesn't turn to mud in the rainy season.

Now, that is pleasure.

Moses!

Moses!

Well, Moses is gone.

That doesn't bode well.

You know, I don't blame them.

I don't hold it against them.

It's just that we've... we've built something grand here,

you know?

Something that will last forever,

something that will go all the way out to the ocean.

But they don't always get it. They... They slow us down.

You're sick.

Horn's a very brave man, you know?

When the unrest happened,

he stayed here of his own accord,

to take care of the equipment.

And when the WAGs came, he put up a fight.

That's when he took the machete blow.

Hey, Cal.

Whose burden is it to fix up the messes of other people?

Yours.

And who has to keep stock

of every single rotten thing around here,

from the smallest part of the smallest truck

to every liquor bottle in the pantry?

-You. -That's right.

And who has to act as cop, mayor, boss,

general...

father, and ship captain?

You do.

And, um...

who's fed up?

Completely and utterly fed up.

You are, boss.

See?

I obey.

You moved me.

Hello, lads.

Just, uh... Just looking for me dog.

-He's gone. -Okay. Go.

I can't see you well.

That is not important.

The girl should stay inside.

Did the killer take the car?

Yes.

What were you saying?

That you should not leave the house.

Is that your language?

Yes. Our language.

When the lights on the road were on,

I saw you.

I got a good look.

I saw the scars on your face.

They're not scars.

They're marks which protect me.

Protect you from what?

You're the one aggressing us.

You should go back inside.

What did you think when you first saw me?

I thought...

the coin that fell on the ground

that shines for no one.

Leone?

Leone?

Moses.

Hey, get off! Get off!

Why'd you leave the house?

What are you doing out here?

-You tell me. -Tell me why I'm here, Horn.

-Tell me why I feel ashamed. -No, no.

I don't want to feel ashamed of you.

No shame, no shame.

Okay?

Oh, come on, come on.

No... No tears.

The night is not over yet, sir.

Mister...

it's daybreak.

Here.

Take this and I'll have the body carried to you in the village.

My arms are waiting.

And I'll get you.

Look, I said you'll have the body today, and you will.

Look, take this money, sir, and leave.

That's not what I want.

Be reasonable and do it before it's too late.

Please just take the money.

I hear him coming.

Who?

My brother's killer.

Give me your gun, sir.

Cal...

Why didn't you stop?

Babe...

Babe...

Babe...

Hello, babe.

I'm glad you came.

I'm glad you came.

I know how you judge me.

Soon, I'll just... I'll just be a-a bad, bad memory for you.

Thank you for exchanging views.

Good luck.

Well...

there's a van leaving for the city in a few hours.

Go inside and pack your things.

Wait there.

It'll be safer.

There must be a life where I can live for good.
