Debts, duty, needs, poverty often make a man leave his home.

Loud noises and inadequate feed usually chase birds far away.

The desire to fulfill dreams leads one on crooked paths.

But some such paths end up consuming men.

That end up consuming men...

Brother, the 12 illegal boys that we sent abroad, eight of them are dead.

Well, four have reached so all is well.

But our business will be shut this way.

There are no jobs here.

Until boys stop going abroad, our business will never be shut.

Yes?

It's our request in the foot of our God...

There's a local resident whose relative.

Sardar kartar singh

and his son Sardar parminder singh who is in foreign country.

Is nowhere to be found.

Just help these people and their family, God.

That Sardar parminder singh's wellbeing is to be heard by his family.

Dear God may you bless us all.

Isn't your worthless son awake yet?

Don't call him worthless.

When he is worthless then I will call him the same.

Wake up! You have two young sisters at home.

How can you even sleep?

My sisters are not dancing around my bed that I should lose my sleep.

You have been making noise since morning, dad

At least let me dream of America.

If the Americans come to know,

and they don't stop you from sleeping, shave off my moustache.

Shave off your moustache. You think you are so handsome...

Wait, you scoundrel! I will teach you.

Help me! Dad is after me again!

-Please, come here. -What is all this, dad?

What's going on?

You have both over-pampered him.

Do some work, you fool.

All the boys you know have started working.

What work are they doing as if they are working for the Swiss bank.

One is counting bags in a godown and the other has started a canteen in a hospital.

They are all working...

Well, at least they are earning.

Not breaking the bed like you!

Dad, when did you have to get my bed repaired?

Breaking the bed?

Don't change the topic.

I am telling you don't change the topic.

Your Uncle got you such a good job and you left it and came.

Then the commission agent got you a good job after I begged him to

and you left that as well.

Do something otherwise, you will regret later.

Dad, it's not like you got me an SSP's job.

I have studied mechanical engineering and I was earning rupees 12,000.

I was feeling ashamed of myself.

Thank God at least my son felt some shame.

Bravo.

I thought you don't have that either.

Dad, he is going abroad and he will work there.

Let my brother have fun for a month or so.

If you have reached a decision, come and eat.

Feed your idle son.

Dad, you call me idle so many times. Let me reach America once,

you will get tired of counting dollars.

Just invest in your son for six months, everything will be sorted.

It is better that I buy four new buffaloes than invest in you.

-At least we'll have enough milk. -We already have four buffaloes.

Yes.

But you haven't ever brought even one kg milk home.

You give it all to the milkman.

Mom, you have married such a stingy man, he would milk the chickens if he could.

-You... -Hand me my slippers, sister!

-I am leaving! -Let him eat at least.

Now go and waste your time somewhere else.

"America!"

-Hello. -Hello.

Hello.

Yes, ma'am, this is Parminder Singh from Jalandhar, Punjab.

Then speak in Punjabi.

Yes...

I wanted to ask you if this visa is guaranteed.

Yes. Come and meet us in the Jalandhar office.

Okay, how much will it cost me?

There is no cost. Only rupees 10,000 for the file.

-It will only cost rupees 10,000? -Yes.

Okay.

Where will get 10, 000 rupees from?

Pamme, what happened to the payment?

Uncle, you are sitting right here at the shop. I was going to your house.

Give it to me. How much is it?

What do you mean how much? I will pay you all of it.

We are going to raise the limit on the land. Dad is going to the bank.

Haven't you already raised the limit?

Earlier it was raised on two acres.

Now we are raising it for the rest of the land.

Uncle, dad asked me to get around rupees 10,000 from you.

For the bank's commission etc.

That is true.

Will you get the cheque today itself?

Yes, I will get it today. I am just going to the bank before it closes.

Kartar, you are here.

Listen, son, grind this flour.

Yes?

You haven't left yet. What if the bank closes?

Let it close. It's not like I work there.

But aren't you raising the limit on your land?

I already have. How much more should I raise it?

It's just on two acres. I am talking about the rest of your land.

What else is there? I only have three acres of land.

But Pamma took rupees 10,000 from me for this.

-Did you give him another rupees 10,000? -Yes.

Oh, you silly man. Let me go and get the money before he spends it.

You are just too much.

Go on, roll it.

Pamma!

Here.

What happened to the mushroom seeds? You didn't get them.

If you aren't going to get them then give me my money back.

Uncle, just wait for a day or two. Dad is a little unwell.

What happened to him?

He has...

a stone in his gallbladder and needs surgery.

Oh, my God.

Yes.

Okay, Uncle, I must go. Dad is in a lot of pain.

Okay then.

Take this. This will be fun.

Go on, play your card.

-Kartar! -Yes.

You should rest at home in your condition.

What condition? It's not like I had a baby.

You didn't have a baby.

But you have a stone in your gallbladder.

You must be having a stone.

I have never even had a fever, fortunately.

I am not saying it without cause.

Pamma told me that dad needs surgery.

Pamma is the one who will get surgery today. Pamma, I will operate on you.

Have these sweets. My son got his visa accepted.

-Where did you get a visa for? -Australia.

Alright. Congratulations.

Okay.

-Ma'am, I had called you. -Sir, please speak in Hindi.

Ma'am, you asked me to speak in Punjabi that day.

Sir, that was our telecaller speaking.

-Okay. -Yes.

Who will I need to meet here, Ma'am?

Yes? Tell me.

Ma'am, I wanted to get my file ready for America.

-Come inside. -Okay.

Okay.

And submit rupees 8,000 outside.

You asked me to get just rupees 10,000.

That is the fee of the file.

And rupees 8,000 is our fees.

Alright.

Hello.

-Hello, brother-in-law. -Hello.

I wanted to tell you

dad got a bullet motorcycle for you.

Really?

Yes. But just don't tell sister.

The family has kept it as a surprise for you.

Alright, I'll bring your sister in the evening.

Yes... come...

And you know, I was saying

if you could bring a mobile for your brother-in-law.

Okay, I will, I will. Let me get ready now.

-Come on over. See you in the evening. -Okay?

Come.

"America!"

Mom, what are you cooking today?

-A thrashing. -Hey.

When did I get surgery for my stone?

-When did my wrist get sprained? -Sister, help me! Dad is after me!

Why do you always attack the boy as soon as he comes?

-Oh, my God, you have a cane in your hand! -I am after him?

He is after me.

-Why are you disgracing my turban? -When do you wear a turban, dad?

Whenever I see you, you are wearing this check scarf.

Don't change the topic. Don't change the topic!

Then you should change your nature. You are always grouchy.

If I won't get angry then what else can I do?

You are lying to people and conning everyone.

It's not like I am a drug addict that I will con money, dad.

-I am trying to go to America. -Why are you trying?

If it's that easy to get a visa then every man will go to America.

Everyone is going. Do you know how many of my friends have gone and settled there?

But you are settled right here.

Hey, Pamma.

Brother-in-law is here. Don't insult me in front of them now.

Come, our sister is here.

Burn this cane.

-Brother. -Greetings, Sister.

How are you, my brother?

-What colour did you get for me? -Silver.

-You should have got the black one. -Black is an evil colour.

My son-in-law has given me a nice surp today.

Mom, it's not surp. It's called a surprise.

It's alright. You can go inside and teach her English. Let's go.

Are you going to talk about everything right here? Go in.

-How are you? -God bless you.

-Come, son, come. -Come along.

Let me put your bag inside.

Sit. I will bring water for you.

-Mom, don't put too much sugar. -Okay, daughter.

I don't see the bullet anywhere?

Ask your dad.

Have patience.

If he has called you then he will give it to you before we leave.

Don't be impatient.

Son-in-law, you came by bus today?

Dad, the motorcycle broke down.

I sued to get tired of starting it over and over. So I sold it.

The wisdom is in buying something new and then selling the old things.

Dad, what will I do with two motorcycles? You have bought a bullet for me.

-When did I buy a bullet for you? -Pamma told me.

Did Pamma ask you to get anything for him?

Yes, he asked me to get a phone for him.

Then get the bullet keys from him.

"Pamma!"

-How much do you want? -Rupees 8,000.

May I open it and see?

What do you want to see? It's a single owner phone.

I got it straight from the showroom not from the flea market.

Then why are you selling it?

My brother-in-law has sent me a new one from America. What will I do with two?

-Your sister is married in Ropar. -Oh, my Uncle's son-in-law.

Why are you inuring so much? Take it if you want or else I am leaving.

Give it to me.

Take this.

-Hello, ma'am. -Yes, please.

Ma'am, you asked for this separately.

Yes. You may go inside.

Thank you.

What does your dad do?

He is into farming.

Look, I don't want to lie and waste your time.

It takes 10 to 12 years for a file to be processed for America.

Then, brother?

Then do one thing, get a visa for a smaller country.

-How small? -You know, Dubai, Bahrain...

-Saudi Arabia. -No, no, no brother.

I will go to America.

Then there's only one way.

That way is by air. It's not like I can go via road.

I mean to say the other way. The other one.

Do you mean the illegal way?

-Will I reach that way? -I have sent many.

You will reach. But it will cost you around 15 to 17 lacs.

And if you want to go through a direct flight

then it will cost around 8 lac extra.

I will discuss this with my family and let you know, brother.

Alright then. It is your wish.

I will let you know.

Mom, dad is eating dry roti.

-Give him some butter. -Yes, I'll get some.

There's no need.

Talk to him.

Brother, is the flight to Mexico direct?

Yes, it is direct.

Once you reach Mexico, America is right next door.

You talk to him.

Brother, send me an iPhone from America.

What! I won't get you an iPhone!

First, will I pay off dad's debt or...

You won't pay off my money son, you will make me spend it.

But I won't spend even a single rupee.

We have only one son. If you won't settle him down

-then who is all this for? -All this?

You are saying all this as if we own shellers.

We barely have three acres of land out of which two acres is already mortgaged.

I have to get these two girls married.

I am still young.

And I can get married after four years.

It's not like I will get old.

Four years?

Will the boy's family wait?

They are such supporters of their brother.

So they won't wait.

My brother will find a boy for me abroad. Right, brother?

Yes. I mean... if I am settled

then I will get them married properly too, won't I?

Otherwise, you'll have to bid them farewell

too in a small ceremony like our elder sister.

Look at him.

-We won't get married like that. -Please, agree.

Who knows our son might get settled.

He won't get settled.

Dad, why are you so negative?

-What is that? -Poor-spirited...

Not poor-spirited.

Negative means someone with very high thinking.

One who thinks about his children before himself.

Yes.

Alright. Give me some time to think.

Alright. Yes.

Take your time and think.

-I have thought about it. -Yes?

You won't go anywhere.

Negative does mean poor-spirited.

Pamma, son, eat something before you go.

Are you satisfied now?

It's alright.

If he feels hungry at night he will get up and eat.

Pamma, get up, son.

Your sisters couldn't convince you and neither could your mother.

Listen to your dad at least.

It's not like my dad listens to me. I told him so many times to send me abroad.

I can send you, son. But my heart doesn't allow it.

I am not going for myself. I am going for you.

I don't feel like leaving you and going either.

Nothing can be accomplished here, dad. I am going there to work hard.

How much money will it cost?

If we go through a direct flight then...

it will cost us eight lac extra.

Get the direct flight then.

Mom, put some ghee in the food!

I am coming to eat!

"Wait for a few days, dad. Good times are coming."

"Wait for a few days, dad. Good times are coming."

"We will pay all our debts with interest."

"I will play American music in our village."

"I will play American music in our village."

"Sister, watch how your dressmaker"

"Dances around you."

"Watch how he shows you his new collection."

"Sister, watch how your dressmaker dances around you."

"Watch how he shows you his new collection."

"You will often wear new scarves with new laces."

"I will fill our house will dollars like grains of wheat."

"I will fill your purses with dollars."

"Don't cry about this."

"Let me test my destiny."

"My breath stops when I see tears in your eyes."

"Mother, I will give you a life of leisure."

"This is the dream of your son's life."

Greetings, dad.

Yes, Tejinder.

Did brother call?

No.

He hasn't called.

These faces that are silent now used to talk a lot when we met.

That we will do so many things when we reach America.

But no one knew who will reach and who won't.

We left in the hope of living.

But we were walking the path of death.

-Hello. Greetings, brother. -Have you reached?

Yes, I have reached! Don't worry at all. You have shown me heaven, I swear to God.

Brother, just tell me what time is my flight to Mexico?

Brother, I have paid extra money because I

cant spend too much time in any small country.

Brother, you know I am supposed to reach directly.

Whom should I ask?

Brother, just send your man.

Hello, brother? Hello?

The balance is finished.

What would he know about where America is? Hello, brother!

To go America?

[Speaking foreign language]

Brother, which way is America?

-That way. -No, I mean, which way lead there?

Are you going to go by walk? It's too far.

My agent told me that when I come out of the airport,

America will be right in front of me.

Brother... does your mobile work?

Yes, it works for taking pictures. There is no balance.

The way you are behaving, you won't get anywhere.

-Shall we take a selfie? -Please!

That man seems like a local. Lets ask him.

By the looks of him, he won't have any balance either.

Excuse me, brother!

Phone? Mobile?

Speak in Punjabi, please. I don't know English.

Are you Punjabi too?

The way I am bumping into Punjabis, I feel

the plane may have dropped me at Tarn Taran.

-Where do you have to go? -We have to go to America.

You got off at the wrong place. This is...

So America is right next to it not Lahore. So many bags? Do you sell them?

Brother, take off your sunglasses. You look terrible.

-You look like people who like walking. -Not at all.

I have paid eight lac extra, brother, for a direct flight to Mexico in the morning.

I won't be staying around here.

[Speaking foreign language]

Yes?

[Speaking foreign language]

What did he say?

Oh, alright!

He came to pick me up. Move aside.

I have paid eight lac extra.

[Speaking foreign language]

God knows we cant understand anything you are saying.

But we have to go as well. Come.

Brother, get out. He will fight if he sees you.

Why will he fight? He asked me to get in.

He is just picking up passengers from the airport.

Yes, he is.

Move a little.

Where are you from, brother?

-Where does it look like I am from? -I think you are from Punjab.

-That's it then. -I am from Gurdaspur.

Did I ask you?

I belong to Gujranwala city in Pakistan.

Snacks from our city are very famous.

I got that.

Brother, now tell me the name of your city too.

Jalandhar.

-My name is Waqar, Sir. -Pamma.

Hello, this is Jerry, brother! Jerry!

Yes. Alright.

Brother, pay attention outside. He better not drop us somewhere other than America.

Are you going to America by road? One needs to go there by air.

Brother, there won't be any flights. He will take us to the jungles of Panama.

It doesn't matter how he takes us.

As long as you are with us, you must wear your sunglasses.

Right, brother?

You have said exactly what I wanted to say.

This is my hotel.

I am staying here. I have a direct flight.

I am staying here too.

Do you mean you are both staying at my hotel?

Your hotel... as if you are a waiter here.

-Wow, dad, I have reached abroad. -[Speaking foreign language]

No, no, I don't eat sauce.

Have you reached America, son?

No, not yet. I am laying over at a country.

Alright.

-This isn't less than America too. -How long will it take, son?

Not long at all. I am just about to eat and then my flight is in the morning.

Just a minute!

Dad, hold on, let me ask this girl how to eat what she has brought.

Everything is eaten with one's mouth.

Dad, don't be silly. She didn't get me paranthas. Hang up the phone.

Yes, how will I eat this?

How should I eat it?

[Speaking foreign language]

No, I don't need extra. Just tell me how to eat this.

I feel she also doesn't know.

Its alright. Thank you. Go.

Greetings.

Okay.

What happened? Why re you carrying your bags?

Did the hotel throw you out last night?

We are not siting here to beg. We are waiting for that guy to come.

Keep waiting.

Look! Mine is already here.

I must get to the airport.

-He is our ride too. -What do you mean?

Brother, our agents are different but our donkey is the same.

What do you mean donkey? I am not going by any donkey.

I have a direct flight. I'll talk to him.

I paid eight lacs extra. Why re they going with me?

No English.

[Speaking foreign language]

Oh, sorry!

That is my ride. I have paid eight lacs extra.

Okay, I am leaving. You can reach via the jungles.

This is the ride to the airport. The ride to the jungle is different.

But we have to go in this car.

Don't you understand the ride to the jungle is the other one!

He's gone. He has taken the dollars too.

He was going to take them anyway.

Lets go, brother.

They are just stories that say that going this way is hard. How is it hard?

We are going in a car. We are listening to music.

We are having fun.

You are having fun because of my eight lacs.

Understand that well. You will have to walk later.

Its not like we have never walked earlier. I will walk.

Just play Rahat Fateh Ali's CD. Make us enjoy.

How long will he take to drop us to America?

The speed that he's driving with, he will definitely drop us by evening.

Hello, brother, how far is America?

What?

-What is he saying? -He abused you.

Well...

He has all the qualities of a smuggler. He is driving quite fast.

Drive slowly, you fool. What if we leave America behind?

Do you really not know about America or are you just fooling around?

My agent said that where the flight lands

the planes's nose will be in America.

Brother, America is very far.

I will still reach early because I have a direct flight.

You will take another moth or two to reach.

-Why did he stop here? -I think he needs to go to the bathroom.

Come on.

Come on.

Get out, get out.

Come on. Hurry up.

By the way, this man has made a nice house by smuggling people.

Come, come!

What is this? What kind of a gate is this?

This is an electronic gate.

If you press the button, the tree will stand upright.

-It is a fencing for the animals. -They don't have gates here.

There are no thefts here. They are all decent people.

They rob people at gunpoint.

-Lets go in. -Lets go.

Come.

Come!

You stay here.

I will make the next arrangement.

Whatever happens, I am not responsible.

Wait. I come back.

Okay?

-Did you understand what he said? -What did he say?

He asked us to stay inside.

If we go outside then he is not responsible for getting us to America.

But why will we come out?

Its good thought. This airy house is better than the small hotel rooms.

Yes, that's right.

Sorry.

Come on, guys.

-What happened? -It's all open.

They must have left it open for sunlight. The rooms must be inside.

Anyway my legs are cramped after sitting in the car for so long.

Lets go and lie on the bed inside.

-Yes. -Come.

What is this?

This is the lobby. Rooms must be inside.

Let me see what is inside.

You look on that side and I'll look on this side.

There will be a room here.

It seems like a bomb exploded here.

These are all lobbies. There are no rooms.

-I think he made this house for summers. -Come this way! I have found a room!

Where?

Come this way! Where are you guys?

We are coming!

-Jerry, where are you? -Come this side. Where are you?

Come along. Look here.

This doesn't have a ceiling either. Theses are just walls too.

Jerry, there's a picture of you too.

We'll have to find the painter and kill him.

Why?

The picture is even more handsome than him.

Shall we take a picture with Jerry?

-Come. -Come.

Not wit you, with him.

Come.

Come on you silly man.

Come.

Are you having fun?

Brother, what fun? I am in a pathetic condition here.

You told me that you'll send me via a direct flight.

Brother, I am missing home by looking at this house with no walls.

-Brother... -Ask your family for more money.

More money for what, brother?

Hello...

-Give me the phone. -Do you want to take a picture?

Just give it to me.

Forty one, thirteen, thirty two, ninety two...

Hello.

Hello, brother, for God's sake don't disconnect the phone!

Brother, hello! We are sitting here hungry, brother! Hello!

These agents do this all the time, handsome.

Don't call him that.

Handsome word doesn't suit when it comes out of your mouth.

Right, brother?

Anyway, why are you going to America?

We should be the ones asking you this question.

Tell me the truth. Do not lie.

Didn't the agent tell you even once that he won't take your money?

He must have said that.

I was born in Punjab by mistake. I was made for America.

The people from Punjab admit this mistake too. Right, brother?

May I take off my sunglasses? I have to sleep.

Keep them on. We have to sleep too.

Right, brother?

-Yes, brother. -Your choice.

Everything was fine in the beginning.

Nice hotel, nice car.

But later as the city changed, things started to change.

Hey, guys! Come!

Come on. Come.

He is here. The Donker is here. Get up.

Where did you run off to?

Where? I paid eight lacs extra to you.

We thought you went to get some food. The water that you have kept here

has a small frog floating in it.

A small frog? What has that got to do with anything?

This fool took the pinnis too.

We don't have a roof or a pillow or anything to keep us covered.

After all, I am your guest.

Are you related to him? I don't like this nonsense. Do you understand, you baboon?

I don't know, man.

Why are you saying all this to him? Talk to your agents.

If he gets upset we won't be able to get to America.

If we cant go to America then so be it.

-Just wear your sunglasses! -Come, come.

Eight lacs...

I spent eight lac rupees and I am in such a bad condition.

Even if we reach America in a bad condition, it is still a very big deal.

If he leaves, he won't even be able to find the main gate I am telling you.

Let's go.

Hurry!

Brother, brother.

Brother, I didn't pay you eight lac rupees to scrape my knees.

-Brother! -Stop it you show off.

You will get us killed.

It seems like a dead spiderman is crawling next to me.

Come along. Don't lose heart.

Listen, listen.

If anyone gets shot, don't scream. Otherwise, we will all end up dead.

You are the one who will get us shot.

-Who goes to America like this? -Us.

It will be a great deal if we can reach by crawling too.

Brother, wear your sunglasses. Why are you sucking our blood?

You had a flight to America.

Now to get to America, you will get your naval scraped too.

Lets go.

Look how fast the scoundrel is driving.

Get in the back.

Let's go!

Let's go!

This doesn't look like America to me. What do you say, Brother?

Alright, man.

Bus... come.

-What is he saying? -Five minutes.

-Which bus? -Okay.

-What was all that? -What is he saying?

I had a chat with my agent. We have to go forward via a bus.

Okay, so America is nearby.

-Let's go. -I won't go by bus. I will talk to my agent.

Leave it. He will disconnect your call.

I will talk to mine.

He thinks he is so smart.

Yes!

What?

No, no. That cannot be possible.

-What happened? -It is still ringing.

-Peace be upon you, brother. -Greetings.

The Donker dropped us in the middle of nowhere and ran off.

It's okay. You have to go in the bus from there.

Okay. Via a bus?

And women will come to pick you up.

-What? -Yes.

-Women are coming? -Yes.

Alright then. We will talk once I have reached America.

-Take care of yourself. -Okay.

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.

Bus will take us forward.

Then there is a small canal ahead and America is right next to it.

And the fun part is women are coming to pick us up.

-Look, the bus is here. Lets go. -I won't go.

-Come on now. -You go ahead. I won't go.

-It's so much fun, brother. -I know it is.

Jerry, it seems like we are going for your wedding.

Your Uncle's sons are dancing in the back.

By the way, this is between us but the bus doesn't seem fit to go to America.

Your face doesn't seem fit to go to America too.

-Look ahead. -Was that fun?

You are killing it, brother.

I don't know why this fool is driving so slow.

The last driver was good. He drove so fast.

These kind of people inform their families that they will come late.

Yes, tell me.

Hello, yes, brother? Please, answer the phone at least.

Yes, it is insulting for a man.

Yes, brother... I am going via flight after this, aren't I?

I don't have to travel via bus, do I? My flight...

-No, no. Don't worry. -What?

They will come to pick you up.

Okay. Brother... hello?

He couldn't talk even now.

He will be able to say what he wanted to only once he reaches America.

You have brought so much stuff. Why didn't you bring two servants along too?

Why do you want to go?

Stay. Its a good place.

Oh, yes. I think I have started to like it.

Hey!

USA? USA?

-Yes? -Yes.

-Yes, yes, USA. -USA?

These people are here and we were looking for them there.

But a woman was supposed to pick us up.

The woman was supposed to pick you up because you walked.

I have a direct flight so these are my people.

-Come on! -Yes, come one!

-Alright then. Bye. -Come on!

-Hey, move! -Alright.

Bye then.

I have a direct flight.

-Let's go. -Yes.

[Speaking foreign language]

Are they your relatives?

Why have they come to us? Do they like us?

Are they the ones who were supposed to pick us up?

Yes, that's me.

-That is him. -Yes, yes.

They are showing us Pamma's picture!

They have come to pick him up too. So who did he go with?

I think we will reach now.

I am a big shot in Pakistan.

I have spent thirty lac rupees and I am getting conned here.

I have found a man and he has brought me into his office.

Okay, I will board my flight and call you.

Don't you have the decency to offer water or tea?

Tea!

[Speaking foreign language]

I have spent thirty lac rupees. I deserve at least some tea and water, don't I?

Are you going to USA too?

Direct flight?

My flight will go direct too. Its not like it will fly zigzag.

Son, why don't you speak? Are you sick or mute?

-Do you really want to say something? -Oh, so you are stressed.

By the look of your clothes, I feel you were dragged by horses.

[Speaking foreign language]

This is their cook. He is asking us to come and eat saag.

Come. I have spent thirty lacs.

-Come on. -Let me feed you some breakfast thanks to that money.

Kneel down! Kneel down!

What are they going to do? Why are they tying us up?

I have heard that they remove kidneys here.

Kidneys? My kidney is of no use to them.

There is a stone in it.

Tell them to remove the stone not my kidney.

They are not doctors. They are robbers.

-Money? Money? -No.

-Money! Give me money! -No money.

Money?

-Money. -Money?

Open.

Oh, wait. Money...

Money, money.

I have that much as well.

-Money? -Open my hand.

Open, open.

Our bags.

They won't return our bags. Come on, lets go.

I was looted.

Who knows what they'll do to those boys.

I was thankful that

-someone like me was there with me. -Who knows where we are supposed to go now.

-Sorry, he was not like me. -By the way, its a really bad country.

-He was someone very different. -They don't rob you directly.

They fool you and rob you.

I was standing right around here somewhere.

Move back a little. Move this side.

Yes, I was standing right there. They came and said 'USA agent'.

I went with them.

The same thing happened to me. I...

Move back a little. A little more.

I was standing right there.

And don't come near me. Keep this much distance between us. Understood?

They call me a leech in my village.

Brother, please check if something has got in my eye.

Two punches have got in your eyes.

By the way, your thinking resembles mine so much.

I put money in my socks and you put money in your boots.

Brother, I have always had rules about this.

Whenever I go anywhere, I keep money at different places.

Brother, wherever they ask just give them some money. Don't lose your life.

Which village are you from?

Do you think I am from a village?

Have you come here from New york?

Handsome, you don't know. My name is famous.

-What is your name? -My name?

Guddu.

Shame on you. Your name cannot be famous.

And when you were getting beaten up inside,

why didn't your fame help you then?

They took out a gun and my eyes went dark.

And they have snatched all my money. That sock of mine had the most money.

How much was it?

Twenty dollars.

They snatched my mobile too.

I bought it brand new second hand before coming.

Okay, listen.

Can we request them to give me my red bag? I have very important stuff in it.

Go and get it.

I will wait here. Go and get the bag.

Go. Why don't you go now?

Should we ask someone here?

People won't give you the directions to a donker's house.

Be quiet. I will take you.

Just find out if there is a wine shop nearby.

And should I get you a bundle of notes too?

This one is not dancing freely.

[Rap song in background continue]

I am going. Come along if you want to.

Don't complain later that they robbed your other socks too.

Wait! Take me with you.

The agent told me I will go via a direct flight

and now he is not answering the phone.

Did you pay the agent in full?

Dad gave them all the money as soon as I landed.

Forget about your agent. Look, I cant even call home.

They took my mobile too and on top of that I don't remember anyone's number too.

Let it be. They'll all worry for now reason.

We are the ones who should be worried. What if we get robbed again?

-What else will they rob us of? -Honour.

I think no one live here.

Yes.

Come, let's arrange a place for sleeping.

What's all this?

It's just us.

I suggest we spend the night here.

That's great. Wasn't it better to stay back there than spend the night here?

We could have seen those women dancing too.

Who knows they might have offered us some food too?

Its not like your Aunt had made Kadhi rice for you there.

Go. Why don't you go?

Your face is like Mr Bean.

Whatever it is but this music is keeping us entertained.

How long do you think they dance?

Have I booked them?

I need to sleep. I feel like turning off their transformer.

Try to be a music lover.

Close your eyes and imagine them dancing.

Will you help me with something?

Don't ask me to lend you money. Rest you can tell me anything.

Can you be quiet for two minutes, my brother?

Let me take a nap then you can keep dancing the entire night.

Why are you so grouchy? Did anyone puncture your motorcycle?

Okay, tell me something. How are you going to America?

I had to go by air but now I feel I may have to walk there.

I haven't asked you your travel schedule. What are you going to America for?

I am going there to look for work.

And you?

What have you asked me? It is a very long story.

In that case, let it be.

-Listen to a short account at least. -No, let it be.

Just listen to a little bit of it.

Well, I am sleeping.

You can tell me.

He is sleeping as if he has to wake up

early in the morning and milk the buffaloes.

We have neither eaten since last night nor slept properly.

The agent isn't answering my calls too. I was better off in Punjab than this.

I might have just paid them thirty lac rupees for walking.

Hey, direct flight!

Direct flight! Come, come.

The planes are landing.

-Come. -No, don't go there.

-They will con us again. -No, they are our people. Come.

Be careful.

Don't be surprised, Pamma. Come, my brother.

Come, come.

Come inside.

Be careful, be careful.

Go to sleep, my son.

It seems a truck full of people unloaded here.

They are all like us.

I cant see even a single of them like you.

Pamma, who is this?

His name is very famous.

Oh, so he in a band.

They cant even afford rupees 250 and I spent 30 lac to come here.

Shame on you thirty lac time then because you are still standing here with us.

-He has a direct flight too. -Everyone here has a direct flight.

Hey, where are your sunglasses?

He took them away.

They suit him too. But what should we do about your eyes?

We'll poke them out. It will only take five minutes.

Alright, sit down now. If another group come, we'll have to stand and sleep.

Come, sit down.

Son, could you move a little?

God almighty.

Are they all supposed to go?

They send people in groups.

Two groups have left since morning. Our turn is next.

-Do they give good food here? -They do. It is a little too salty.

Ask them to put less salt.

I haven't come to my mother-in-law's house.

-Put less salt. -Let it be.

Just tell me do we get vegetarian food here or not?

Lets ask them. Waiter.

Which meat is this?

I hope it's not human flesh.

I think it's a dog's meat.

We'll eat it.

Alright.

-What is available in vegetarian food? -Only rice.

-Give me the phone. -Are you going to order online?

-Just give it me. -Here.

This guy is already getting second servings.

Eat it, son. It's alright.

He won't stop eating. Move along.

Hello.

Hello, brother, it's Pamma. Why don't you answer my phone?

You call so many times.

I don't call so many times. I only call when I am in trouble, brother.

Brother, you deceived me by lying about the direct flight.

What deception? Trump has put very tough surveillance on the border.

Brother, then you should have asked Trump before taking the money.

I will not go into the jungles.

Get me a direct flight.

Should I send a helicopter for you?

Brother, my father sold land to send me here.

I won't be able to show my face anywhere.

Brother, please do something.

You cant catch any direct flights. You will have to go like this now.

Is it really not possible?

Brother, at least ask them to cook vegetarian food for me.

Hello...Brother...

By the way,

if they had put some coriander on it, it would have been delicious.

Your behaviour won't take you much further.

What we were scared of happened at last.

-I really did not want to put donkey. -Eat it, brother.

I had to put because with great difficulty my family had sent me.

I felt like going back.

But if I went back to village

Then the debtors would have made father's life difficult.

I'm coming, I'm coming.

Thank god, we've reached here before nightfall.

[Speaking foreign language]

They snatched his bag too, the guy who paid thirty lacs.

I told him there was important stuff in my bag, let's go get it.

But the fool didn't go with me.

Is she going with us too?

She is not here to look for her lost brother. She will go with us.

She seems like an educated girl. Ask her about America.

Let me ask her.

Hello.

Leave me alone.

-What did she say? -She abused you.

Does she look like someone who abuses? I will talk to her.

Where are you from?

I told you, leave me alone.

I think she did abuse me.

I will talk to her.

She just abused him but she will kick you.

Fine. Let it be then.

She is listening. Once we reach America she will be the first one to get us sued.

When will we reach America?

Its just a canal. They should help us cross it.

Do you still think that America is on the other side of this canal?

We will have to cross so many jungles, so many countries

and then we will reach America, fool.

He has insulted me for the first time today.

Get used to it. It will happen everyday now.

Even if we reach America after getting insulted, it is still a big deal.

What did you say?

Jerry, turn the mirror this side.

Show it to me.

Don't show it to me.

Show me the mirror.

Can he see such a big face in such a small mirror?

Bring him the mirror from a truck. Turn it this side!

Turn it this side!

Hello. Yes.

Is everything alright? Okay, listen to me.

I was saying...I have almost reached...

Hello. Don't worry. He has got a job.

God willing, he will open a barber's shop once he reaches America. Okay.

-Hello? -Show us the mirror.

Do you have to go to the office? Hello?

Mom, it's Pamma's call.

Really? Yes, Pamma?

-Greetings, Mom. -Greetings, son. May God bless you.

When will you reach?

It will take us a couple of days then we will enter Mexico.

Alright. No problem, son, take care of your self.

They are snatching the phone away from me. Talk to the elder one.

Mad.

Yes, lizard?

I am fine.

Just call dad every now and then.

He keeps asking us if you called.

-How is dad? -He is very quiet since you left.

Dad starts shouting at four in the morning.

Since when did he start being quiet?

-Alright, I'll make you talk to him. -Yes, put him on the phone.

Dad, it's Pamma's call.

-Yes, Pamma? -Yes, dad. Give me your blessings.

-How are you, dad? -You tell me how you are. I am fine.

I was just about to leave so I thought I should call and talk to you.

Sometimes, there's no network on the way.

Its good you called.

So? Do you get proper food?

Yes, dad, everything is great. Everything is available on time.

That's good.

-Alright. -Alright.

-Okay, dad. Take care. Goodbye. -Alright.

Go carefully.

Hey, direct flight! Come, wear your boots.

My brother will have to walk a lot to get to the plane.

Come on! Let's go! Let's move it.

Will we have to pay for these things?

They are not your Aunt's sons.

-One bottle of water. -Ten dollars.

I think he thought I want to buy all of them. One, one water bottle.

I said ten dollars.

Ten dollars? Its not like I asked him for English whiskey.

It is five, six hundred rupees in our currency.

In my country, it is straight twelve hundred and fifty rupees.

I say we fill these empty bottle from a hand pump somewhere.

It is our helplessness. He knows we won't find

anything on the way. We must buy these things.

How far is it?

We will have to cross many jungles.

We must cross many countries and then finally we will reach America, you fool!

-Right, brother? -Yes, brother.

Is it important to buy these boots?

It is very important.

Because the jungles that we will cross have snakes in them.

Today I am getting angry at the Donker who snatched your sunglasses away.

When we get to America, I will buy you

sunglasses first and then do anything else.

I say we buy some of these things.

How much will we eat on the way?

That true.

-Boot? Boot? -What size?

Medium.

Are you buying pyjamas? Tell him your number.

Number ten. Ten...

-Ten. -Nine.

Seven.

Seven, eight, nine, ten.

We have to go very far, son. Come.

Keep this. We'll eat it on the way, okay?

No, I want to eat it right now.

Son, we'll eat it on the way.

Isn't the girl from last night going with us? I don't see her anywhere.

She wasn't inside either.

Sister-in-law, has short hair.

That's alright. Isn't not like America is nearby.

By the time we reach, her hair will grow up till her waist.

Who know which circumstances she has been through.

Hurry up, hurry up! Let's move.

Come on!

Move!

-Come along, my son. -Let's go.

Wait, you, there. Hurry up.

No, you go this way.

This way. Hurry up! Come on.

-Pick me up. -Come on, come on.

Come, son.

Hey, stop. You, go there.

You, here.

No. You wait.

Dad, sit.

No, go there.

Let's go.

Pamma!

You forgot to take your passport.

-Oh, take it, son. -What will I do without you, my friend?

Come along.

The car is parked here.

Uncle is here too now?

Its alright, son. He is fond of you.

-Come. Lets go. -Yes, lets go.

We have arrived on time. My nephew would have left soon.

May God bless you.

Well, then, you saw your Uncle and Aunt but you couldn't see your elder brother?

Sorry, brother. I can see you from a village away.

How are Uncle and Aunt?

They are fine. What time is your flight?

My flight is at nine thirty. I am late. Let's leave.

Alright, don't get scared in the plane.

If you feel nauseous then just tell the driver.

I will give your reference as well

and ask him to drive slowly because I am in no hurry.

You may give my reference. He may know me.

I have worked in the railways for many years.

Oh, look.

We got delayed.

Brother-in-law, greetings.

Greetings.

Sister, greetings.

-Sit inside. Greetings, Uncle. -We'll come with you as well.

He is not going for a rally. He is going to the airport.

Only the main people will go with him. Come on, Shinder.

I won't go. You may go.

Brother-in-law, you should stay back as well. She will cry alone.

Pamma, go there and send me that phone which has three cameras.

-In gold colour. -Let me go first!

Listen here. This is a small list.

Send me all this.

At least take a picture of it.

You can send me a picture of it.

It's been scanned. After all, my nephew is intelligent like me. Lets go.

Oh, lets go, everyone!

Greetings, friends.

We are donking. It just rained and we are sitting in the jungles.

Look, what a bad condition everyone is in.

My Haryanvi brother, what would you like to say?

Hello to all my brothers.

It's been two days since we are in the jungle. We don't have any food to eat.

If you can send food after watching this video, thank you so much.

Alright. My brother Pamma from Jalandhar is sitting at the back.

Agent told him he has a direct flight.

His flight landed here. What do you want to say?

If I meet that agent now.

We are struggling a lot. Don't trust these agents.

We have been sitting here for two days.

We have been changing clothes behind these trees and what not.

Look.

He is sitting on the tree like he is Tarzan.

He is holding bread in his hand. His name is...

His name is Guddu.

His name was famous. What happened now?

I have been outsmarted.

It's been two days. The food is finished.

This bread is all we have.

I don't know if I'll eat it with mud now.

-You can eat it. -Brothers.

I am telling you, don't get trapped by these donkers.

Stay where you are.

-Okay. Here. -Bring it here.

Is it your family? Peace be upon you, Aunt.

I am making a video.

His name is Waqar. He is from Pakistan.

He is struck because of his relatives.

He babbled to them that he is going to America and now look at him.

Friends, don't do donking at all.

These fools have left us here two days ago.

We don't know where he has gone. He hasn't returned.

Come here. I will show you something else too.

-Here. -Bring it here.

Look at this.

He's going to America too, aren't you?

[Regional language]

Are you going because of your circumstances?

[Regional language]

Yes, that's all well and good.

[Regional language]

Thank God, none of us can understand each other.

They are talking as if two politicians from two countries are having a meeting.

Call him. I know his language.

-Whose? His? -His.

Get up.

[Speaking gibberish]

Don't talk nonsense.

He is fine.

Here, give it to me.

Friends, that's my friend from Amritsar in the back.

He is from Fazilka. And I am your Jerry

from the jungles of Panama. What happened to the video?

It had been two days we were sitting in jungle.

No one had come to take us.

Pamma, I am scared.

I am scared too.

Judging by how late it is, I don't think the donkers will come.

I think we will have to spend the night on these trees.

I say we have a lot of time.

I can cut the trees and make two cots for you.

Yes, you know how to work too.

Brother, by the way, these agents are very cruel.

I can't go back

otherwise, I would have taught them a lesson. Damn them.

It's the agent's call. I think he's calling to apologize.

-Hello? -Hello.

-Yes, brother. -Your money hasn't reached.

-More money? -Not more. The balance.

Only then you can go forward.

Alright, brother. I will send dad tomorrow evening.

-Send him. -And, brother...

Brother, we have been suffering since morning. Hello?

You should say the last thing first because he doesn't listen to you anyway.

Jerry, when you laugh it seems you are human.

Otherwise, you seem like a speed breaker to us.

Pamma, she looks worried.

She is worried that's why she came here. Or else she would have gone to Emirates.

Pamma, look, that boy sitting there.

Such a person dies at the beginning of movies.

Jerry, don't laugh. Heroes like you watch their own film and say it won't work.

Tell me something, you two.

Are you going to America as per your wishes or...

Villagers have thrown you out. Get out.

You just keep on shouting.

You will land us in trouble one day.

Speak softly.

-Dad! -Pamma.

I think the robbers are here again.

Passports!

No, I think they are donkers.

They are from the immigration.

No, they are donkers.

Give them the passports. It's best for us.

How is that best? What if I want to go back in the future?

Brother, this is the ID.

If the army catches us,

they will see these IDs and send us back to our countries.

I won't give mine.

Will you take it with you if you die?

Which flight are you going to catch from this jungle? Give me your passport.

I am giving it because you are asking to.

I wasn't going to give it even to my father.

Here.

We'll get deported. If your face isn't nice at least say something nice.

Anybody else? Passports?

I have already given my passport.

Look, someone broke his passport.

Any IDs?

After giving passports all means to go back were closed.

It is for our benefit.

-The way that was left only donkers knew. -He have no passport.

Alright, let's go. Come on, let's go.

They say the most dangerous jungles in the world are in Panama.

Not only animals, even the trees are poisonous here.

And on top of that danger from mafia at every step.

And if we escaped from mafia then the fear of being shot by army.

Getting out of here safely meant getting a new life.

You scoundrel, you almost blinded me!

Well, if you become blind then go to America and start begging.

Everyone knows there are donkers in these jungles.

Why are there no cops here?

You'll get us caught!

Speak softly. The army may be around too.

Walk faster, everyone. We have to make the journey of two days in one day.

I have heard the animals in these jungles can drag a human being away.

This one walking behind us.

The one in the front is the first one to get shot by the army.

Donkeys walk more than anyone.

We have walked more than donkeys too.

Couldn't you find another example?

I knew a donkey would answer.

Be quiet, you donkeys.

[Speaking foreign language]

Mr Donker, may we... sit a little?

No. You go!

I have roamed the jungles so much that I will be born a monkey in my next birth.

What are you now?

He is a baboon.

Friends, I say we go back. We'll come next time.

It's not like they'll carry you next time. You'll have to walk.

I can't walk anymore. I am going to sit.

-Sit down, guys! -Let's go!

What go? You have the habit of walking. Sit down, guys.

You have been sitting all your lives. Walk now.

-America is right here. -Yes.

I can see it. Go and settle down, I'll come.

Come on, walk.

Let's go! Come on!

Come on. I am telling you, you'll be left behind.

You'll be alone. Come along.

It'll be dark soon. He's right. Come on.

Wait... I am coming.

They left me behind.

It was almost night while walking.

We found a group just like ours.

They had left before us.

This group left before us and they've only reached this far.

Greetings.

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

Every person's face had helplessness written over it.

But I wanted to know why that girl was helpless.

The silent girl's face had a strange anxiousness.

Brother.

Hello.

Do you know her?

Yes, I know her. We are from the same village.

Okay.

Why is she going?

She doesn't have parents.

Her parents are dead and she has to look after her four sisters.

That's why she has to go.

Let's go! Hurry up!

You need to stay here. We'll go and come back.

Don't talk and don't light any fires. Remember, there's mafia around.

Brother, give us a torch at least. A person might have to go and pee.

What is he saying?

He asked us to sit.

May God bless you. May your kids live long.

Thank God. Our feet had almost given up.

Let's sit down.

Shouldn't we eat something?

Be patient. He'll come right back and say let's go.

I don't think he'll be back anytime soon.

Okay, listen to me. There's mafia in this place.

Let them be around.

I have a lot of space. They can sleep next to me.

The people who rob. The ones who shoot you after robbing you.

He is saying that because he hasn't seen the mafia yet.

Hide your socks. They'll rob the few dollars you have left.

Take some rest, guys. He'll come and wake us up again at five am.

Did he tell you his schedule before he left?

Wake us at five o'clock. I won't wake up. I used to wake up around noon at home too.

They are not our family.

They will shoot the sleeping person and leave them behind.

Wake me around five thirty then.

Eat son.

Sardar, have some bread.

No, thank you, brother.

Okay, brother.

No, my child. God will help us.

What happened to him, brother?

He is tired.

It's obvious. We are tired of walking.

He's just a child.

No, child.

Brother, did you know all this would happen on the way?

I did know.

You still brought your kid along?

I was helpless.

And it's not like the kid had a future there.

That's true.

The bread has becoming so dry.

Pamma, she's not eating anything.

I think she doesn't have anything to eat.

No. She's not hungry.

That girl's parents were dead.

Before dying they put in all the moneys

and got their daughter married in America.

But because of some greed her husband got her deported.

Sadly that girl's child was there.

She was getting donkey done to meet them.

-Hey, come on! Come here! Hurry up! -Brother, wake up. They are here.

Waqar, wake up. The donkers are here.

Let me sleep, Pamma. I am having such a beautiful dream.

They leave the sleeping men behind after shooting them.

Get up. They are here.

Dude.

Pamma, ask them to heat a glass of water.

I want to freshen up.

You are not sitting in a five star hotel. Tell them yourself.

Heat the water.

I'll be right back.

-Let's go! -Come on, this way!

-Jerry, come. They'll leave you behind. -Coming.

Come on, Jerry. Do it later.

Yes, you can keep doing it along the way.

Pick up and bring my bag.

Wait. Help me wash my hands.

Give me your water bottle.

I don't have any water. Help me wash my hands.

I won't do it.

-Aren't you my brother? -No.

We needed to cross three hills to reach Panama camp.

And today, we were about to cross the first one.

The boys told us that while climbing the mountains, mafia was likely to attack us.

They would even rob us of our food not just money.

Hey! Wait!

Hey, Mister.

Hey, leave them alone.

-Are they together going to loot us? -They have nothing. They are poor people.

He is trying to save us.

They are all my responsibility.

Let's go from here.

Do you understand?

All these people are my responsibility.

But we were fortunate. We had found good donkers.

They spoke to the mafia and told them that we don't have anything.

They may not have listened to us

but they listened to their people and let us go.

"The ones who went away from their nest for food."

"May they live happily."

Pamma, if I had known that it's so hard to do this,

I would have never come.

I wouldn't have come either.

This is too difficult. One boy from our village did this.

How long did it take him to reach?

He never reached.

Even now it will be a big deal if we reach dead.

Don't say that. It's really important for me to go.

Did we come to graze cattle in the mountains?

It's important for us to reach too.

Take care of the child.

Children often get lost.

Careful.

Thank God, he's tired too.

I think he is tired enough so he'll sit.

He will fill the water and walk.

Just wait and watch, he will sit after filling water.

He'll walk.

No, he'll sit.

He'll walk.

-Do you want to bet fifty dollars? -Let's do it.

Let's do it.

Let's go!

Give me.

I will give you after I reach America.

Where have we got stuck with these people?

Brother, be careful.

Be careful.

Hold my hand.

Move!

The poor guy is asking for Move.

Give it to him. His ankles must be hurting.

He's asking us to walk.

We are walking.

I will take his pistol and shoot him in the ankle when he's asleep.

Then he'll let us rest for half an hour.

He's very strong. The scoundrel doesn't feel tired.

Be grateful that he doesn't understand what you are saying.

Otherwise, he will shoot you.

Be careful. He might slowly walk into a swamp.

Hurry!

-Move! -We are coming.

May I pee and come?

Come carefully, friends.

People like him say be careful and then fall down themselves.

Pamma, ask him to stop for a few minutes.

Have some shame. She's a girl and she's still walking.

I think he'll sit.

No, he'll walk.

[Speaking foreign language]

He will sit.

Do you want to bet fifty dollars?

Yes.

My legs are hurting. I am going to sit.

[Speaking foreign language]

Give me the money.

I owe you a hundred dollars. Take it from me when we reach America.

It's not like there's a shop here where you'll buy some candy.

By the way, you are slowly earning your eight lacs back.

Oh God.

[Speaking foreign language]

Jerry, get inside.

-Lay eggs on time, okay? -Wherever we go, his room is ready.

-Come along, guys. -Come, Jugraj.

Sit down, everyone.

So, friends.

I think we'll have to spend the night here today.

It's good we are indoors. We don't have to fear the snakes and ants.

The snakes and ants won't knock the door before coming.

They will bite if they want to.

Say something nice, people.

If I die here, they will take my house from me.

I had to mortgage it before coming.

You mortgaged your house?

You said you are a big shot.

Do any big shots leave their county and go to another country?

Everyone here took debt to come here. As did I.

All debts will be paid, brother.

We should just reach America once.

What do you mean reach?

We have reached America, brother. Rest assured.

Now we won't return.

Look at him, he said if we reach.

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

[Speaking foreign language]

Take it from me.

Strong.

[Speaking foreign language]

Pamma.

She has memorized your name.

Anidia?

Who taught her that?

She learnt it herself.

He was fine earlier. Then he started behaving like this.

How long will it take for us to reach America? Do you know?

Yes, I have two sisters.

I am the only son.

-Only? -No, only one.

Only one.

I'll go and settle down in America first.

Then I'll get my sisters married.

Then I will get married after that.

She is saying something else.

Do you know what she is saying? Sit quietly.

You didn't face any difficulties in the journey, did you?

I'm going to America on my own.

Oh, she is saying my brother-in-law is very cruel to my sister.

Well done. You are talking as if you have understood everything.

I will ask her.

Why are you going to America?

My mom and dad, all my family... all of them are still in Iran.

Her uncle has called her.

As if you really understood. Do you know what she's saying?

Stop it, you guys. I'll ask her.

So you are going to America to settle down?

I'm sorry, I don't understand what your talking about.

She is saying when we are talking to each other

then you better shut up.

She was saying the same to you two.

Give me some water.

Someone is throwing up there.

-Do you have any medicines? -I have some.

I gave thirty lac rupees there.

I think I'll dirty my clothes in the swamp here.

It's the third day today. If we don't reach today, I'll kill the donkers.

Pamma, stop worrying.

Stay calm. What's the big deal?

America is right in front of us.

You are unnecessarily worrying.

One minute...

-Go and reach before everyone. -He has pushed me for the first time.

Be prepared now. You will get pushed in the future too.

It's a huge deal if we reach America even after getting pushed around.

Come out, I'll talk to you.

He is saying it's a huge deal if we reach America.

Climb up.

By staying hungry and drinking dirty water of jungle

boys had started falling sick.

Donkers didn't let us stop.

They left behind the one who sat.

Either he would have died of hunger

or animals would have eaten him.

Come on. Let's go.

Hey, come on, man. Let's go.

Come on.

-Come on. Let's go. -No.

Why did he sit?

No...

No, I can't walk, friends.

What happened, brother? Get up.

-Mudassar, get up, brother. -No...

-Drink some water. -No.

Please, brother, drink some water.

Get up.

Get up.

Everyone's going. It's just a little farther now. Get up.

We are almost there.

-It's not too far now. -You all leave.

We wanted to take that boy along with us. But he was not able to.

-You go. -Come on, man. Let's go.

Because of that boy others also walked slowly.

-Come on, brother. -Donkers would have shot that boy.

Mudassar, come on.

Please come, brother.

Come on, brother. It's not that far now.

Mudassar, come, my brother. We'll move slowly. Come on.

-Come on, man. Let's go. -Mudassar, come on.

-Come on, my brother. -Let's go! Come on.

Panama camp was still very far.

Everyone was so tired of walking

that it was difficult to carry that small bag on shoulder.

This path will take you to Panama camp.

You must follow this path.

Next day they stopped us and said that Panama Camp has come.

All our tiredness vanished.

We felt so energetic as if we have reached America.

How much time will it take?

-Two, three. -About three hours.

Just three hours. We'll will reach quickly.

-Okay, thank you. Very good. -Thank you.

But little did we know that our bad time has started now.

Keep following me. We have to go straight.

Pamma, do you even know the way or are you leading us astray?

-Do you know it? -No.

Keep walking then.

There are snakes, tigers, leopards and also anacondas in this jungle.

-Be careful. -The anacondas won't eat you.

He said that this path goes straight.

There are four paths here.

I think this is the main path.

Main path? Is this a fancy road?

All the paths are the same, Pamma.

I think this is the right path because he asked us to go straight.

Is that what you think?

Then go that way.

Whoever wants to come with me, follow me.

And whoever wants to go to America, follow me.

Sardar, are we on the right path?

Keep walking. We are on the right path.

What happened? Was that path closed?

No, I came back so that you shouldn't be lost.

Is that so?

You scoundrels, is this a joke?

You have circled around and brought us to the same place.

If anyone talks any nonsense now...

Shut up and follow me.

Come! Come along!

They have made a joke out of this.

Come.

You don't know where we're going.

Your just taking us round for random walks.

I too wanted to abuse the same way.

You have circled and brought us back to the same place.

You scoundrel, this tree is moving.

It keeps coming in front of us.

Do you feel better now?

You damn scoundrel!

You are standing in our way wherever we go!

You, fool!

That's why you do have any leaves!

You are being humiliated in the entire jungle!

Damn imbecile!

Which way should we go, Pamma?

Tell me honestly, who is being humiliated?

-Hey! -Come this side, everyone!

-Dad. -Sit down.

Sit down.

-Oh, God. -God almighty.

Help us, God.

It's gone.

Thank God, it's gone. I thought I'll get shot today.

Come.

Come, son.

We've seen the army for the first time, haven't we?

We didn't see it. We just saw it flying.

Pamma, it's stinking so much.

It's a jungle. Some animal must have died.

Pamma, which path have you brought us upon?

I think no one ever left alive from this path.

Look, there's another dead body.

I told you that path was better.

-I suggest we go back. -Yes.

It's stinking.

He's alive.

Does anyone have water?

Brother...

Get up, brother. Hold this.

Are you alright, brother?

-Do you have anything to eat? -Yes, we do.

Here.

Do you have a knife?

Wet it and eat it. We eat it like this too.

What are you doing here?

It's been a month since I have been roaming here.

The agent didn't send money to the donkers so they beat me up.

I am hiding here.

Take me with you.

We are not going to catch a flight from here.

We are just walking through the jungle. You can walk with us too.

Get up. Take this, guys.

Get up, my brother.

Give me one biscuit, brother.

One...

Give me... another one.

Pamma, he said just two three hours.

It is almost evening now.

He told me two hours too.

-It's been two months. -What?

Yes. Honestly.

Brother, do you have anything to eat?

Brother, do you think we are street vendors?

We are dying of hunger ourselves.

Get him to change his shirt.

I feel like I am travelling with a mechanic.

Yes, brother. Give me a new shirt if you have one.

I think we picked up the wrong dead-body.

We should give you a shirt?

Should we also give you a towel and turban with it?

Like you are our son-in-law.

Pamma.

Do you think, all of us are really going to reach America?

What is she saying?

Ask her yourself.

What? What?

Do you think we'll all reach America?

Relax. We will reach.

Rest assured. Don't worry. We'll reach tomorrow.

Shall we reach tomorrow?

He is her brother too.

We can neither understand him nor her.

He also might be asking what time we'll reach tomorrow.

We'll reach tomorrow, brother.

Tomorrow.

Answer everyone's questions. You are the leader.

-Okay, okay. -You are the one who is giving answers.

Sister! Sister!

Why aren't you itching it?

-Do you have anything to eat? -Hey.

Let the night pass. What is wrong with you?

Wake up, guys.

Wake up.

Go, go!

-Get up. -You mustn't joke like that.

Don't wake him up. He'll start demanding things as soon as he wakes up.

Wake up!

Pamma, let me sleep for another half an hour so I can feel fresh.

We are leaving. You can freshen up and come after half an hour.

Get up.

Wake up, man. You'll take long.

Come on, get up.

-Take this. -Get up.

You are going to ask for something to eat.

So I thought you can eat this wood in the meantime.

Hey. Say something.

Hey...

Shall we reach tomorrow?

He is also asking what time we'll reach tomorrow.

As one by one people were becoming less in the group.

We felt broken.

We did not know whose was the next turn.

Hands up!

-Don't move! -Hands in the air!

-Hands up! -Get on the ground.

Down! Put your hands up!

-Give that to me. -Fast.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

Nothing in there.

Give me your bag. Come on.

Nothing.

Get up.

Get up! Come on! Get up!

Get up!

Take off your clothes.

Take the money. I won't take off my clothes.

Dad.

Take it off.

Hurry up! Hands!

Just to search mafia asked everyone to get naked.

They asked everyone to open their mouth to search if we had hidden something.

Hands!

Give it to me!

Hands!

That girl standing next to me was scared

they might ask her to take off her clothes.

-But that happened. -Hands!

Take off your clothes.

Take off your clothes!

He's burning up.

Do you have some water?

Does anyone have water?

We were not happy on reaching Panama Camp.

Because everyone had lost many things while reaching the camp.

After coming here I came to know about the system of donkey.

They took advantage of everyone's helplessness.

Some they left in jungle after telling lies about direct flight.

Some they led astray by telling it is just one day's journey

Some people were such who had not talked to family since months.

Brother, I need to make an important phone call. Can I get a phone?

Go ahead, brother.

Thank you so much, brother.

Peace be upon you, brother.

Who is this?

-Waqar. -Waqar?

This is Waqar Khan.

Yes, go on.

Brother, it's been a few days since we've been struggling in Panama camp.

Tell me, will I get the country out or not?

Yes, yes, you will get it. It's guaranteed.

You also guaranteed that I will reach directly.

Yes, and you are going. So shut up and keep going.

Listen... Hello?

Look, he used to call me brother earlier.

He didn't even listen to what I was saying now.

My agent wanted to get me married into his family.

Now look what happened.

May I make a call too?

Go ahead, brother.

Thank you.

-Hello? -How are you, dad?

Pamma, where were you? You didn't even call.

Dad, I lost my phone.

You silly boy, your mom is praying like crazy.

Charne, it's Pamma's call!

What happened?

It's Pamma's call. Talk to him.

Pamma.

-Hello. -Give me your blessings, mom.

Pamma, are you alright?

I am fine, mom.

What happened, son? You haven't called for so many days.

I lost my phone. I am calling from someone else's phone.

Son, take care of yourself. Have you reached safely?

Yes... I have reached, mom. Don't worry.

I just wanted to tell you I am fine. Don't worry about me. Look after dad.

I am calling from someone else's call. I'll call you later.

-Don't worry. I am fine. -Okay.

Okay, son. I'll go to the Gurdwara and pray, okay?

After two days our finger prints were taken.

It gave us hope that we will leave from here soon.

But we were also scared if we did not get country out.

There were many boys who were sitting there since a year.

Alright, mom. Greetings.

It's alright. Don't be sad.

Give your family my agent's number.

Your work will be done in two, three lacs. Why do you worry?

You have been through so much.

Another two countries and we'll reach America.

My family has already been to a few agents.

Everyone ends up deceiving us.

It's alright. Why do you worry? Have some faith.

-Come on. -Come.

You may talk and see.

Yes, no problem. Just send my agent's number to your family.

It felt as if God was against our happiness.

Along with one happiness he was giving one pain as well.

We did not whether we should be happy or not.

We all had got country out.

But the one who lost his son during this journey did not get it.

You will get country out.

They are going to shift us to another camp today.

We'll see each other in America.

Peace be upon you. Take care of yourself, brother.

From Panama to Costa Rica From Costa Rica to Nicaragua

Moving secretly and aimlessly

and suffered hunger and thirst during the journey.

After 15 days we reached Guatemala's jungle.

By crossing which we had to enter Mexico in seven to eight hours.

The scoundrel didn't tell us which way we should go.

I know where we have to go.

We need to get to the other side of Negar Goa.

What is she saying?

Whatever she's saying is right. Follow her.

Come, come.

Look, now she has even learnt Punjabi.

She knows everything.

Does anyone have service on their phone?

-Service on mobile? -Mobile?

No.

No.

Whichever jungle we go to, we only find clothes and slippers. No food.

You have eaten half the leaves in the jungle.

Eat us now.

If I ask you for something, you won't refuse, will you?

Go ahead, brother.

I want to apologize.

A pack of biscuits.

Let it go!

-I said let it go. -I am holding it too.

I am the one who saw it first.

-It's in my hand. -I touched it first. Let it go.

You have been hungry since you joined us.

-Let it go. -Leave me here please.

Let it go or I will bite your hands.

Shame on you.

You are pouncing at it like it's pizza.

Now lick it.

If you had been patient, everyone would have got one piece at least.

They are acting like dogs.

Well, looks like ma'am is tired.

I have had enough.

Let's sit here.

Move aside. You always get in the middle.

He sits with me as if I gave birth to him.

Dear God, we've been through a lot of hardship on this journey.

I'm hopeful that the remainder of the journey will get us there in peace.

Pamma.

When we reach America, what are you planning to do?

Can't you speak even a little English?

A little bit?

What will be the first thing you do in America?

Okay. So what will I do when I reach America?

First, I will save myself from paying the bond.

You can't escape that. We will have to pay the bonds.

The American army is very sharp.

If your face is ugly, at least say something nice.

Hey!

-Yes. -What are you doing?

I was looking for some tasty leaves to eat.

Is this a snack tree?

You will harm yourself. I am telling you these trees are poisonous.

You shouldn't have told him that.

It was a sour leaf. Like tamarind.

You can eat it.

I know all about these jungle leaves.

My ancestors were physicians.

They must have eaten their own herbs and died.

I think they must have died of poverty.

-Yes, hello, Uncle. -When will the donkers come?

We are sitting in the jungles at night. It's scary.

Are you in such a hurry to go?

They will call you when they come.

They will come around four or five in the morning.

Okay.

He said they'll come and call us early morning.

Which fool told me this jungle can be crossed in one day?

-I did. -Have you been here a few times? I did.

I saw all the videos before coming here.

They said this journey will take eight hours.

You saw all the wrong videos.

It's already been ten hours since we've been walking.

-Wake me up when the Donker calls. -Okay.

Okay. Good night.

Come on. Come over here.

Come on! Come over here!

-Hurry up! Come on, this way! -The donkers are here. Come.

In the morning Donkers picked us up from Guatemala jungles.

I will sleep like a baby on this bed today.

This bed shouldn't be troubled.

Jerry.

What's the time?

Call the agent and ask him when are we supposed to cross the wall?

My agent said that

we won't cross the wall. Things are very strict.

These are the Mexican jungles. We'll go through them.

Oh, yes.

I just remembered we have to go through Texas.

Call him. Get up.

Shouldn't we shop a little?

Things must be very expensive in America.

Are you going to go back? Shopping...

He strictly asked us to stay inside and not go anywhere.

Come with me.

I am not responsible for you. And you didn't pay thirty lacs to me.

Hello, uncle.

Can't we buy any food items either?

Do you have anything to eat?

God has given us a bed. Must we go out?

Enjoy this.

Say that again.

Open that biryani.

Open it.

He gets up as if he's at a feast.

Move aside.

Then donkers called up that we are supposed to climb wall today.

We were very happy that day.

Yes, friends.

We are starting from Mexico towards America.

The donkers have called after five days.

My brother is getting ready here.

-He wearing his turban. -We are moving now.

It's been five days since we've been living in this room.

Rest everything is up to God.

We will reach America soon. We'll make the next video in America.

Yes, you say something.

Bring it here.

So friends, our journey is almost over.

We will reach America within a few days.

We stayed in this hotel for a few days. It was honestly so much fun.

We slept on beds. We enjoyed so much.

Wish us well. We'll reach there and talk to you.

Where do we go from here?

America is right in front of us.

We will go to America from here and it will be so much fun.

-We have almost reached. -Give it to me.

And I am your Jerry.

We are coming through the Panama jungles

and we are in Mexico. From Mexico, we'll go to America.

This is our brother.

Pay his money. We are taking him along.

He will eat pizzas and burgers now. Tell them.

-Yes. -Enough. Give it to me.

I need to use the phone.

Come on, get ready.

I'll be right back. I have to make a call.

Hurry up. We need to leave.

Take your things. Don't leave anything behind.

Is this jug ours?

That way!

Come on, quick.

-Quick! -What is he saying?

-Come on! -Run.

Look, we have crossed around seven, eight countries.

We are going to enter Mexico.

-Hi. -America is right next to this.

-Look at that. -I am Jerry.

Look.

Yes. Do you want to say something?

Shut that down. Let's go.

-See you. -Bye.

Bye.

-Come on, let's go. -Let's go.

Mom!

Mom, Pamma called. He has reached Mexico.

-Really? Thank God. -Yes.

Maano, bring my clothes.

I will go to the Gurdwara and offer my prayers.

I'll be right back. Hurry up.

Thank God, my son has reached.

Mexico is the last border.

After this we have to enter straight into America.

That is why donkers have made Mexico the hub.

And money is taken from all boys.

We were taken there too.

Okay now. You go.

Call another one.

Hey. Come.

You, come.

-[Speaking foreign language] -Sir, payment is done.
