Many people die.

This is a very old book.

Not really a book for small children.

Promise me you wont get nightmares?

Okay.

Der Mutterbaum.

The Mother Tree.

My German is a little rusty.

Lets have a look.

Eines Tages...

Once...

upon a time...

deep in the forest...

... grew a giant, old tree.

This tree...

was the Mother Tree.

Look.

And her roots were so long, they grew deep under the earth,

across the whole wide world.

And all the children,

the girls and the boys...

Know what? Ive always wanted a little boy.

And now I have one.

Now we can be a real family.

Family! Family! A real family!

Wheres Lucy?

She doesnt want to leave her room.

Come.

Blow out your candles.

Good job!

Good job!

Its happens almost every night now.

She just needs to drink less water in the evening.

Leave her.

Her bladders not the problem.

Its an adjustment.

She has to get used to this.

She has to?

Your own child?

What do you want me to do?

He is not my child.

- Deon. - Do you hear me? Hes not my child.

Whats going on in there?

Braam!

Braampie...

Im so terribly sorry.

This is not what I wanted.

Ill come visit you.

You'll always be my little boy.

Bye-bye.

Renata!

Lets go inside.

Come, darling. Come with me.

Come!

You do everything he tells you. Do you hear me?

And after... I'll give you some sweets.

Everything will be okay.

Is he small enough?

Yes, come.

Come, get in.

These people dont fuck around. Thats why they call me.

Do as I tell you.

Dont look anyone in the eye, you hear me?

Did you hear me?

Yes, Oom.

Listen carefully.

This is how its going to work.

Are you afraid of dogs?

There you go.

Hold on tight, or hell get away.

Were doing the right thing.

They dont have homes.

No one who loves them.

Hold on tight.

Well done! Youre a fast learner.

Come!

Come. Move it.

How was he?

Better than the others.

We'll do this again.

Hurry up.

Go to bed before someone sees you.

So...

youre the Pieterse boy?

Come!

I dont want any trouble.

Do you hear me?

In Nelspruit you could do whatever you wanted,

but here are rules.

Do we understand each other?

I dont think twice about sending someone to reform school if they steal my joy.

Dont steal my joy.

Yes, Tannie.

Come.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

What the fuck, dude?

Stop it.

What the fuck?

What... whats going on here?

Tinus!

- He fell, Maam. - Out! Get out of here!

What are you--

Tinus?

Tinus, is that what happened?

Come.

I smell a rat.

Sybrand Pieterse.

Do you have a name?

Braam.

Just Braam?

Just Braam.

There.

If you and I look out for each other, Braampie...

then well be safe.

What do you say?

Brothers?

Brothers.

Fuck, Boeta.

She left this place to you, just like that?

Free of charge?

Seems like it.

How long did you stay with these people?

It doesnt matter. I cant really remember.

Someone remembered you. Thats obvious.

What did you say her name was?

Renata.

And Renata had no one else to leave this house to?

Do you want to stay here or not?

Im just saying.

Her husband and daughter died a long time ago.

Car accident.

So were going to live here?

Were going to live here.

A teacher and a policeman.

Both of us working for the fucking government.

Were helping.

Like we said.

- Do what we can. - Yes.

Its big.

And quiet.

Its fucking quiet. I like it.

It's good.

Yes.

A place where nothing ever happens.

Where all you need to do... is live.

We should probably get a dog?

And now?

Beer, Boeta. We have to celebrate!

This is different than algebra.

So you have to think about the shapes in your head--

And then use the lines to solve for X. Okay?

So if we look at X--

Whos gonna give it a try?

Fezile?

You dont have the answer?

Hello!

Do you hear that?

What?

Do you hear that?

What? I hear fuck-all.

Exactly.

Is this what people call hiking?

Walking, with nowhere to go?

Yes. Looks like it.

Come, I dont want to catch the rain.

Its okay to stand still every now and then.

Why are you talking shit? Come!

Come, Braam!

Coming!

Fezile...

Wheres Thomas?

Hes been in the bathroom since homeroom, Sir.

Continue.

Thomas?

Im sorry, Sir. Im going back to class now, Sir.

Wait, wait, wait.

Thomas...

Please, Sir.

Who'd do that--

Just--

Thanks.

Whats chasing you, huh?

Nothing.

Your beer is flat.

You make me nervous... staring like that.

Is it Thomas again?

New bruises every day.

Fuck.

What are we going to do?

What do you mean?

If Im right about Thomas?

You make a complaint at the Department.

There are procedures in place for this type of thing.

I know the system isnt perfect--

- Not perfect? - Braam.

Boeta, I know you want to help.

I know. I understand.

But this is the only way.

Its his dad whos hurting him.

- Report the fucker. - So what could happen?

You remove him from his home and put him somewhere even worse?

That's not--

You cant handle this yourself.

Do you hear me?

Theres way too much red tape.

Hey.

Hey, listen to me.

Next week, Ill come to school with you

and then well have a chat with the boy.

Okay.

Yes.

You did the right thing here.

But you need to write down the whole equation.

Thomas?

Im fine, Sir.

He beats you.

Is that...

Is that... all he does?

If I carry seven...

then this becomes four.

Sir...

I didnt--

Please dont say anything.

You can call me.

Any time.

Day or night.

Ive been where you are now.

Ill help you.

No matter what.

Hello?

Thomas?

What have you done?

Thomas, where are you?

Thomas!

Did you run away?

Yes.

No, no, no.

Thomas, you can just--

Ill have to take you home.

I cant—

- You said-- - This is not the way to do it.

Ill have to call your parents.

Thomas, my brother is a policeman. He can help you.

Thomas?

Thomas!

No, no, no!

Im not going back there!

Thomas, wait!

Thomas!

Thomas!

No!

Thomas, wait!

Thomas!

Wait!

Thomas?

Thomas.

Why...

Why are you doing this?

I trusted you.

You...

You...
