All language subtitles for Mordene i Kongo-en

Some men are at ease,
I call assailants.

I do not think they are violent courage
their bitches and completely crazy ...

... but they are drawn to work types,
who has some adventure over them.

It doesn't just apply
Tjostolv and me.

It is simply a type of man.

Norway has become so "soft" that there
There is no room for people like us anymore.

I think war is healthy.

The war is a natural part
of human identity.

Having contradictions.

And you understand that there is
types other than oneself, -

- and accept,
that this type of man exists,

- you have reached halfway
to understand it.

WELCOME TO ENTEBBE AIRPORT

I exist.
And Tjostolv was there.

And the others are there.

And I believe in it, as in English
is called "big boys' rules".

You can be ready for it
to kill...

And then you can be ...
all right.

BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Two Norwegians are interviewed in Congo,
when their driver is found killed.

DR Congo is experiencing the world's worst
humanitarian crisis according to the UN.

... deadly conflict.

The two Norwegians are in prison
in Congo under insidious conditions.

Tjostolv Moland
and Joshua French ...

The CNDP warriors are waiting inside
the border of Uganda to attack, -

- in the hope of Nkunda
will return as their leader.

CONGO Murders

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

There he is. It was a long trip.
It's the friend I talked about, John.

Hey.

- Have you been sleeping on the plane?
- Nothing. I've slept enough at home.

Maybe not that much happens?

There is swine flu,
so we must avoid close contact.

We do not fear the swine flu here.

Yes, we live at Backpackers.

It's Saturday, so there's a lot
batik, dreadlocks and a didgeridoo.

Such a great Australian recorder
for people who smoke hash.

We have unstable coverage the next few days,
because we are going on that trip.

We know what we do.

Tjostolv knows what he does.
He's an African anarchist.

I'm just kidding.

You know, I'll be back in May 17th.
Then we celebrate Constitution Day together.

- You can forget about the procession.
- It's just Tjostolv, who greets.

No, it's ... Yes.

Why can your girlfriend
not like me?

You know that.
Because you're a narrative.

He controls all the battles all alone.

- He's a legend down here.
- Is that him?

- Luc! How are you?
- Okay.

- Mike.
- It's John.

John.

- Any news about Nkunda?
- He's in safe hands.

Our brothers in Rwanda
Taking care of him.

So now there is finally peace in East Congo?

You know what you say. Only the dead
have seen the end of the war in Congo.

Then we are all here.
What is the next step?

You need to reconnaissance in Congo
and find some values.

When Nkunda was caught,
released our funds.

We have tried to get resources
to continue the fight against the regime.

But everything has been taken.

Congo's army has stolen everything,
And now we want it back.

We believe the values are in Kisangani.
We must have it confirmed.

And what is it? Is it gold?

Diamonds?

You get the address of one in Congo.
His name is Eddie.

He knows the place. For a fee.

If you find the values, we go
to the next phase of the mission.

Where we attack the goal of getting it,
that belongs to us.

- Are you still hiring people for that matter?
- We're working on it. Definitely.

Well.
Excuse me for a moment.

It looks good.

Here's the payment to Eddie.
$ 10,000.

And this is your budget.
And Eddie's address.

If you are arrested
and mention my name -

- and the CNDP rebels,
do not survive.

We are aware of that.

It is now that happens, you know.

It is now it happens. You realize,
that this is something big, right?

- You are not home in three weeks.
- But I'm going home to my girlfriend.

- But you are not home in three weeks.
- I'll celebrate May 17th.

May 17, you know.

Give me her number.
Now we'll see.

Yes hello. It's Tjostolv Moland,
Joshua French's superior.

He must stay here in Africa some time,
pretty long actually.

We need his service here.

That work is not there
so many others who can cope.

There is no one else
who can do it like him.

Our life is here.

It is not in Norway.

see the loop I have on

it is so nice so red white and blue

I'm just waiting
at mom soon me pick up

then we should go together

Drive forward.

The motorcycle here.

- Where are the passports?
- Beware?

Yes.

The sunglasses. Take them of.

Remove the sunglasses.

Okay. Here.

Look here.

It's for you.

- Is it here?
- It may look like this.

- A motorcycle.
- Don't touch it!

Do you know where Eddie lives?

- Yeah, upstairs.
- Up there?

- You fit on the motorcycle. Okay?
- Okay.

Get away from the motorcycle.

Go away.

Is he in there? Eddie?

- You come too early.
- We should come today.

It doesn't fit today.

- That's fine today.
- Eddie had to leave.

Where is he?

Where the hell is Eddie?

- Do you have the money for Eddie?
- We have everything we agreed on.

What's wrong?

Just wait here.

What is it?

You get Eddie's number.
Do you have the money?

- We have everything we agreed on.
- Should we go?

- Yes, he seems quite stressed.
- So let's just go.

Okay. Thanks.

We must at least dig the money
down before we get to Kisangani.

Problems with the motorcycle?
You fight, I can see.

- Where are you from?
- Is there a place we can fix it?

We can fix it.

- We can talk by tomorrow.
- Fine. I'm waiting for you.

- I'll see you tomorrow!
- Yes, tomorrow.

Hey. Do you have a room?

- How many?
- One two. Claphat 1 and 2.

- Two individuals?
- Yes.

I am hell in the body.

It feels like the balls
has become a big nose in the middle.

We had to meet in Kisangani.
So we'll meet you tomorrow ...

Listen, Eddie.
No, it wasn't the deal.

We'll meet you in Kisangani tomorrow.
That was the deal.

He won't meet in town.
He fears the intelligence service.

Why?

Fine. Listen up.
We meet you at road sign 110.

Yes, heading for Bafwasende.
Road sign 110. Yes, tomorrow.

Hey.

- What happens now?
- We meet him ...

Is the intelligence service behind us?

The intelligence service is it
strongest institution in Congo, -

- So maybe, but then it's also the best
to meet him at the road sign.

That's how it is in Africa.
We just have to change the agreement.

It happens all the time.

- Can you see anything?
- No.

The intelligence service is sleeping well now.

It's not too late to turn around!

- Can you fix it?
- He says no.

- Why not?
- He's missing that part there.

Order a new spare part.

- It'll take two weeks.
- Two weeks?

- We order it now, so one week.
- One week?

- Then it takes one week?
- It is okay. We drop it.

We need a car.

- Okay?
- Someone asked for you.

- Who? Who asked for us?
- The immigration authorities, though.

- What did they want?
- They said they would come back.

- Okay. We need a driver.
- We're going to Bafwasende.

- Hey, boss. Is everything well?
- Yes.

- Are you going further?
- To Bafwasende. The car must be ...

I can get the best car
in Kisangani.

No thank you.
Do you want to call me?

The best driver in Kisangani.
My friend can be here in a minute.

I think the driver is here.

If it's him,
we drive in a quarter. Okay?

- A moment.
- Did the hotel call you?

- Yes.
- $ 100 in total, right?

- Where are you going?
- Didn't the hotel say that?

- Who are they?
- They have to go the same way.

- To Bafwasende?
- A little longer. They are sitting in the back.

- Wait, wait.
- Take care of it.

I am still here.
We meet at road sign 110.

We drive in a quarter of an hour.
Thanks. Goodbye.

What? He requires $ 100 extra
for the motorcycle.

Cloudy. I'll get a splash soon.

- The deal was $ 100 in total.
- The motorcycle takes up space.

- Are you just helping the motorcycle?
- We agreed on $ 100.

- 50.
- 20. What is your name?

Abedi Kasongo.

- Why do we stop?
- He's gonna call his wife.

- Who was it?
- My wife.

Why do not you answer?

- I'm a busy man.
- A busy man?

Now we know ...

... 106th

It's not that far again.

Okay, stand. Stop the car.

Run, Josh. Drive!

Drive!

So, run the fuck!

Drive!

Satan!

You killed your friend, didn't you?

There were only two of you in the cell.

You deserve your punishment.

4 YEARS LATER

It is important that we get clarity
of questions or misunderstandings -

- in connection with Mr Moland's death.

Tell me what happened.

You became full, one led
the second, and then you started to fight.

Was that what happened?

Tjostolv was accused of killing,
but you are only accused of participation.

Was that what you were about to fight about?
Was that the reason for the battle?

- No.
- But, Joshua ...

You've lied about so much.
How can I believe in you?

Imagine once, -

- that your family is going to the world
end to visit you in prison.

Come on, my friend.

Joshua, you're about to lie.

It is as if you have a disease.

Did you kill Mr Moland,
Or didn't you?

Joshua? Halvard Mo from Kripos.
Excuse me, I come rushing.

- What was your name?
- Halvard, I'm called. Halvard Mo.

We are here to assist
Congolese police,

- and what is Ane Strøm Olsen,
envoy from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

I have seen
the forensic investigation,

- and we've formed a pretty clear one
picture of the event.

He had put on the shirt.

The shoes.

We need to be part of the reconstruction
and forensic examinations -

- and make sure things are working
the book. We see a little later, okay?

- Ane Strøm Olsen.
- Joshua. Yes...

I need to secure your well-being and help
Foreign Ministry in certain cases.

Why did they send you?

Because ... I've been working
with similar cases before.

- In Congo?
- No.

Not in the Congo, but the Middle East,
North Africa, Ivory Coast.

How are you feeling?

I don't quite know
what happened here.

Would you like to
to say something about it?

- You've been here for four years?
- You've been trying to get me out of those years.

This has led me to accuse me
for killing my best friend.

That's what I'm here for
to find a solution.

Maybe it's just a little late? Little?

As long as you are not accused of killing
at Tjostolv, we believe in pardon.

But the Congolese would like
show the world something and say:

"Look. That's what we said.
Now the last one can go. "

What is it?

What are they to show off?

You must admit,

- that Tjostolv Moland shot and killed
driver, Abedi Kasongo.

Stop the car!

- What?
- Stop the car!

- What?
- Stop the car!

Stops.

Damn ... Luc doesn't answer.

Mike ...

Yes, he was shot. He was shot
and killed. I do not know.

- Yes.
- We have to get out of the country.

We can do that. I send
you coordinates when we are there.

What is he saying?

What did he say?

We go to the Epulu Park.
Someone picks us up tomorrow morning.

Should we just lie there and wait for,
that someone comes and fuckes us?

There are 15 checkpoints for Uganda.
The rumor has spread.

We are two white in a vegetable car.
It doesn't look good, is it?

- Piss.
- It will be OK.

We are military attachés from Norway.

We are busy
and have no time to stay here.

Open the boom. We are busy.
It's the Ministry of Defense. Norway!

Thank you, Lieutenant.

Holy shit.

- Let's find a place to stay.
- This is not exactly A4.

Joshua.

Get out of here, hell!

Hey.

Water?

Joshua.

No!

I get up. No weapons.
Norwegian military. I have no weapons.

Norwegian military.

Stop, stop.

I have no weapons.
No weapons!

Tell them to stop shooting.

I'm from the Norwegian military.

Defense.
Kingdom of Norway.

Show me your ID.

- You say you shot your driver.
- No, we haven't shot anyone.

No, we haven't shot anyone.

Listen up.

Do not worry. I'll help you.

I'm a Norwegian soldier.
I work for the state.

Now listen to me.

Shoot the idiot!

It's your host, General Kazumba.

Came. Make us company.

Do you like fish, Mr French?

Yeah ... I like fish.

Well.

It is important that we cooperate.

Sir. Kapu and Mr Aradjabo
have been helpful -

- and told us
what happened to Mr Kasongo.

Yes, it's called the driver.

The man who drove you
and your friend from Kisangani.

There are lots of fish in Norway, right?
Fish and oil.

A very rich country.

A bowl. For Norway.

Do you know what happened to my friend?

We buried your friend in the bush.

Why did you go here?

You know it's a very dangerous place.

We went here for the sake of adventure.

Did you find it?

It is Bibiche Olendjeke.

She was married to Abedi Kasongo.
The man you murdered.

My condolences.

It is a very sad day for you.

And for Congo.

White men have come here
for several centuries.

Just for their pleasure.

We are never allowed to
to take part in the pleasures.

Congo is also a very rich country
You must know.

But we are looted every day,
as we have become before.

By USA, France, Belgium.
Portugal.

And now Norway?

Rwanda and Norway have money
for replacement.

To Olendjeke.
To Kepo. To Aradjabo.

To me. And to
Democratic Republic of Congo.

Eat.
Enjoy your adventure, Mr French.

Come with me.

Come on!

- Have you been to Kisangani before?
- Never.

- But you've been to Congo?
- No.

- In the Congo, spies are valuable.
- I'm not a spy.

Moland. You and Moland.

- Moland. You and Moland.
- I'm not a spy.

- You're a soldier.
- I'm no longer in the military.

Can you see these ID cards?

They are genuine. For you are soldiers
and works for the Norwegian military.

Defense.
Rank and name.

Joshua French.
Expiration date: January 8, 2016.

- 2016!
- Sit.

- We shut up.
- English!

- Do you know that man?
- Yes. Joseph Kabila Kabange.

He is the country's leader.
Rwanda's government killed his father.

Would he like
You work for those who killed him?

- Norway gets us home ...
- Hey! What do you say to him?

I'm just saying,
that Norway gets us home.

They use ID cards as proof of
that we are spies.

Water.

Sango.
Hey.

You have to apologize for yesterday.
I hadn't slept so much.

The Congolese are quite sensitive when they
think that you do not show them respect.

Then they are offended. It is
very Congolese to be.

It is an imposed feeling. Then you have to
do everything to deny them.

- Yes, they want money, right?
- They will always.

And it gives the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
not in such cases.

I see that.

For Norway, things are different
to the kind that other countries do.

- Their reaction is completely abnormal.
- How?

Statistically speaking, foreigners are
sentenced in Congo, a maximum of two years.

Had I been a Belgian,
I would be out after 12 hours.

I know. Because they know that one
can't always follow the book in Africa.

Belgium is not exactly right
a good reputation in the Congo.

It is an important principle for us,
to respect the rule of law.

- Although two Norwegians are imprisoned here.
- Why do you think I'm sitting here?

Because Tjostolv Moland
and you are convicted of killing -

- and participation in killing
at Abedi Kasongo.

And I'm sitting here because he stayed
found death in the cell with you.

And Norway can't pay you ...

- Do you think I'm guilty?
- So the Congolese need something else.

Tjostolv did not kill Abedi Kasongo.
I don't want to lie to ...

We do not want to deny the authorities
in Congo, because you do not show respect.

I...

You can be sentenced for two killings,
And then we are powerless.

You may think this has been
like Rambo 1 and 2, -

- Where we went bananas
on a kind of murder trip through Africa.

I'm really interested in Africa.
Tjostolv loved Africa.

I'm interested in history.
We went to safety.

We were professional soldiers.

We can't figure out how to settle down
in Norway with ordinary work.

There must also be room for us.
Somewhere.

I have run motocross and that kind of,
But it is Africa that pulls.

Must we not even go on adventures?
Is the time of the fairy tales over?

You have to take chances and drive
through Eastcongo, for it is fat.

For us it was cool.
Even though it is rather weak.

But that's how I am, and he was like that.

- So you were just two tourists on tour?
- I never used the word tourist.

I'm done with Joshua.

Moland invites you to Africa.
He recruits you.

He writes to the rebel leader Nkunda,
accused of war crimes.

He contacts groups that will overthrow
the government of the country in which you travel.

And he gets you the job in Congo.

I respect you not
can familiarize you with the cases ...

Where were you now
if you had not met Tjostolv?

Do you think you were sitting here?

Today, Joshua, we become legends.

Quiet in the room!

Sharing, give heed!
Tube.

High judgments.

The defendants should rise.

I will make the following statement.

Unfortunately, I consider this trial
to be a political farce.

And I will only participate physically
in this trial from now on.

Sir. Moland considers this trial
for a political farce.

Quietly!

Out with you. Out!

Out!

For the murder of Abedi Kasongo -

- sentenced Tjostolv Moland
five times the death penalty.

Joshua French is sentenced to death
for helping to kill, -

- to have formed
a criminal organization -

- and for possession
of a military weapon.

Quiet in the room!

Moland and French are known guilty
in espionage for the Norwegian state -

- and the king of Norway.

The Norwegian state is being judged
to pay -

- $ 500 billion in compensation
to the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Monsieur?

- Where are the guards?
- There are no guards here, my friend.

They are outside.
No keys here, no rules.

These are the former soldiers
from the army. The Congolese military.

There they are former rebels.

CNDP, MRC, RK ... everything possible.

Some of them don't even know
who they fought for.

But you ... You are the spies.

There is only one rule in here:
no policy.

Never mention any names. Never swear
allegiance to anyone. Keep yourself neutral.

- Hey!
- Get lost!

We have to sleep in shifts.
You take the first guard.

Okay.

- Give me a cigarette.
- No.

Give me one.

If I give you a cigarette,
You give me two back.

Okay.

How old are you?

15th

- Are you a soldier?
- Maybe.

So am I.

In the forest they teach us.
They say, "You must kill him there."

You have to.

Cut off the heads ... and the hands.

Have you killed anyone?

What happened to your hand?
Let me see.

You must keep the wound clean.

Keep it quiet.

Mike. Tjostolv.
I'll show you something.

- Where do you want to go when we get out?
- As far away from Congo as possible.

I don't want to go back to Norway.

Maybe I'm going straight to Jamila.

But Uganda will hardly accept me,
So we have to meet in Kenya or something.

I can't go home to Norway.

Be known and go to celebrity parties.

Be like Rune Rudberg
on a bad day.

I do not want to do that.

I can return
to Wildlife Conservation, -

- take care of wild animals, -

- hunt poachers and experience
the legends down there.

Yes, maybe it's my call.

Then I stay there
And there I can be the rest of my life.

Stop! Hey!

Piss off! So what?
Get on the hell.

Stop!

What happened?
Ask how long he has had it.

- Why hasn't he cleaned it?
- He's stupid.

Do you get the ointment, Tjostolv?

Mike?

There are many at home that are
happy for something african ...

... chorus, but it is often them,
who has never been to Africa.

- Just put it down. Done.
- Thanks.

Hey. Do you hurt anywhere?

You don't have pain? You hurt?
Yes or no? Are you in pain?

Okay, so go. He's not sick.

Slip. Next patient.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Joshua.
- Furuholmen.

- I'm appointed to your lawyer.
- Yes I saw that.

Tjostolv? Visit.

- Hi.
- Hi. I'm a little dirty.

Furuholmen, lawyer.
It's about the appeal.

Beautiful.

We work hard on all fronts, -

- and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs does everything,
what it can do -

- But this letter makes the case
harder for us politically.

It was found on Tjostolv's PC.
Have you written the letter?

What is it?

A tribute to the warlord Nkunda,
where you offer him your service.

- I haven't written that letter.
- But it has Tjostolv on your behalf.

"Give me an order,
and I will be your loyal servant. "

It's a fake. That's how they do.
It's just about money.

- This is extremely complicated.
- It's pretty simple.

Just pay. Then it's called "bid"
and "bod", and then it is called "ubuntu".

And in Africa it is the case that when you go
have paid ubuntu, then it is over.

Then I can go to church with the widow
and play with the kids and such.

And that's just fine,
for this is Africa, not Norway.

Things are completely different here.

You don't understand that at home,
But ... it's just fine.

It's pretty far from fine right now.

The forensic report
Mr Moland's death is now ready.

Both the Norwegian and Congolese
authorities have approved it.

We totally agree on the conclusion.
There is no reason to believe -

- that there was a criminal act
behind Mr Moland's death.

It's really good news.

You understand that, don't you?

I know you've been
through this many times -

- and thought you were going home.

But this is different.
We have never been as close as now.

You got this chance.
That's what you got.

And you must grab it.

I'll see you tomorrow.

You know what we call
these little devils?

Dark soldiers.

They knock the dead
and make small devil youths.

They will take power
worldwide.

- Why are you here?
- For the same reason as you.

Because it has been committed
a crime.

And here a crime cannot be
a crime -

- without a criminal.

Someone decided,
the stability of the regime -

- was more important
than to find the truth.

No matter what I did.
The system decided I did.

- For the dark soldiers. Bowl.
- Merry Christmas.

Mike! Tjostolv?

You know in the Bible ...

Paul became blind,
so he could see.

Not true?

We should have had two.

We should have had two what?

Two motorcycles.

- What are you giving him?
- Chloroquine.

- What disease?
- I think he has malaria.

Cerebral Malaria.

- Why not quinine?
- Quinine is not good for him.

Okay, relax.

- I have to give a double dose.
- No ...

- Why do you have to ...?
- Not anymore. No!

What is a remedy?
That's not what you say it is.

- It's chlorokine.
- It is not. What is it?

Relax, brother.

Such.

- Are you being treated properly?
- Yes i am fine.

But Tjostolv has got it,
they call medical treatment,

- So that's one
a little different story.

I've been shopping.

You didn't behave so well
during the first trial.

But it was not a trial.

No, but that's important
to look real.

Important to appear respectful
to the court, right?

Do we agree that we do not behave
as clowns in court this time?

- Yes, that's fine.
- Do we agree?

Yes...

We should try to get you out, right?
I'll see you tomorrow. Get some sleep.

I don't want to say so much today.

You don't have to say anything.

Don't talk to the boys, please.

Quietly!

High judgments.

We were going by car to Bafwasende.

There we found Mr Abedi ...

My jacket. Can you get him to
to give me my shirt?

- Sit.
- I need my shirt.

- Where's my shirt?
- Respect the court!

Can you give me my shirt?
Yes. Give me my shirt.

- Sit down.
- I'll wear my shirt.

Am I wrong?

Am I wrong?
Is it me who fails anyone now?

Relax.

I'm never mistaken! Should he
kills, I always take mistakes -

- and then there is no one
who dare look at me in this hell!

Bring it on!

If you don't fall down,
I get you thrown out.

Sit.

I'm done.
Furuholmen, you are always right.

My client is currently unstable.

I suggest,
that the court pauses,

- So the experts and the doctors
can investigate Moland.

Sir. Moland is obviously
an excellent actor.

Besides being an experienced criminal.

I need no explanation.
Everything is clear to me.

That is certainly clear to you.

"We want to offer you ours
service and our support, General.

We can train, lead
and motivate the soldiers -

- to carry out operations
at a high military level.

Give me an order,
and I will be your loyal servant. "

Sir. judging. Tribunal.

Sir. Moland is in a state,
where he is not sane.

- This is an assault on him.
- I didn't kill Abedi Kasongo.

But I regret
the family that he came into that situation.

The Congolese army attacked us
in an ambush.

In that ambush a civilian,
Abedi Kasongo, killed.

And since the Congolese army is too crap
to take responsibility for his death,

- I take responsibility,
because I'm already dead!

For what purpose have you had
contact with Laurent Nkunda?

I'm not saying I'm working for him.
I support his case ideologically.

And I think he's the one
right man to lead this country.

Are you trying to get us killed?
Is that what you want?

Want to kill me?

So kill me! Just come!

Do you think we're being pardoned now?
When you can't shut up?

You're sick! Come on!

Race!

Welcome to Ndolo.

Bring it on!

Stay lying. Mike!

Stay lying.

Mike!

Mike! Lie down!

So you are Laurent Nkunda's servants.

This is Congo.

Am I wrong?

- Do you want to go and greet?
- No.

Hey.

Hey.

I will greet many times
from Hannah and everyone in Norway.

- It's great.
- People think of you.

I was here yesterday, but they wouldn't
let me come in,

- So the cake I bought,
is from yesterday.

I do not know ...?

Maybe we should just leave
It stays down in the bag for so long.

Yes.

- How are you?
- We are fine.

We have it relatively well,
I want to say.

I just have to touch you.
It is so long ago.

Tjostolv really wanted to get out
and say hi,

- But he doesn't feel
at the very top.

- He looks bad.
- Yes, he doesn't sleep well.

- Are you sleeping?
- You sleep a little worse in Congo.

We must also pray for Tjostolv.
Do you do it?

If I directly pray for him?
No ... not directly.

- But it's never too late.
- We ask, Mom ... We'll ask.

I met the British consul.

- How did you think that ...?
- I had a good feeling.

So something happens.
I've planned some down here -

- and kept in touch with Norway.
So there is a lot to do.

But that's what keeps me
on it. It is very important.

We should not put ourselves down
in the visitor area?

- I go straight in with things.
- Yes, put them in the fridge.

Where's the cake I got from mother?

Mike? Where's the cake,
as I got from my mother?

Don't you just want to listen?
Where's the cake I got from my mother?

Then listen!

Hey!

Relax!

Stop!

What's this about?

I do not know,
what is happening to me.

I do not understand it.

Sango.

- What are you wearing?
- It's just a little food.

- Do you have a good relationship with your mother?
- Yes.

You moved from her when you
was small and came in foster family?

It is completely unnatural.

- How?
- I was a little uneasy as a child.

So my mother made sure I could
stay with another family. On a farm.

Yes? How long did you live there?

From I was nine,
until I was about 20.

Okay, so you haven't lived particularly
long with your mother.

You can try to make
a kind of psychoanalysis about, -

- why I have become who I am.

That something ... something from the outside
has influenced me to -

- to be something other than what I am
personally. I do not believe that.

Here is a letter that says,
that you acknowledge your judgment.

I thought I could get it
a signature of you today.

You don't understand who I am.

And you know nothing
about Tjostolv and me.

Mike?

- Mike, stop now.
- No one dares to look at me.

No one dares to look at me.
No one dares to look at me.

No one dares to look at me.

- Do not worry.
- No.

We need something calming
against the malaria.

Medicine that makes him sleep.

It's important that he sleeps,
otherwise I will not sleep either.

Are you sure our doctors have
the same high standard as Norwegian?

- Will they give you the right medicine?
- I'm sure.

We'll take him somewhere that will
Take good care of him who you asked for.

- He just needs some medicine.
- He must have some good care.

He doesn't have to go somewhere.
We just need something calming.

- So he can sleep.
- Tinto!

But I want to be here.

If you come outside
and get a chance ...

Then take that chance.
Okay, Mike?

Are you with Mike?

Mike? There is a chance,
and that is perhaps the only one you get -

- So why be ready.

Sir. Moland?

I'm trying to help you. You get it
fine there. They take good care of you.

Okay.

Let's go. Thanks.

There were completely different smells out there.
And the light was completely different.

It was...
It was really strange.

Suddenly I saw
that the car door was not locked.

Then I realize
that I'm in a car,

- where the door is unlocked,
and there is a bus 30 meters away.

I don't even have handcuffs on.

There is absolutely free path.

I ... I'm like in that bus.

And it just goes down to ...
to the harbor quay.

I can board a boat
and just sail over to Brazzaville.

Then I had been free.

But you are not now.

No.

- Klaphat 2.
- Claphat 1.

Have you sometimes thought of ...?
If you were alone?

So what?

Hadn't it been for me,
then you would be home in Norway.

You would be together
with girlfriend and ...

After one month you would have forgotten
all about Congo, -

- everything about the prison and everything about the cell.

You are only convicted of participation,
not true?

You say,
that you were assaulted in the jungle.

- By whom?
- By the military.

Two tourists were attacked by
the military in the middle of the road in Congo?

Because?

- What happened?
- I told you.

When you don't say,
why you were in Congo,

- You can't say either
the truth about the murder.

We also hear stories you tell
to journalists, family, friends.

The story you are landed on,
Joshua, don't go up.

Reach.

The car stops on the right side of the road.
Tjostolv goes there. You go here.

Suddenly a shot comes
from the forest, which is aimed at you.

You pull behind the car and you shoot.
Tjostolv with gun, you with gun.

- There was no gun.
- We know you had a 9-mm in Uganda.

And don't picture me,
that you do not take that gun,

- when you know you're going to the Congo.

Then you both jump up on the barn.

But then you discover that the car does not
runs so you run back.

- Towards the place the shot comes from.
- Because nothing happens.

- I find that in a second.
- That no more shot?

- Everything happens in seconds.
- And therefore it does not go up.

You skip logic over.

Even my daughter knows you don't
runs where shooting.

While choosing with your background
to run straight into the danger zone.

One shot is fired at you.

It rushes past you, goes in through
window and Abedi Kasongo's head.

Outside the passenger side
and disappear into the jungle.

- And you think one shot ...
- They shot in the air to scare us.

- But one shot is aimed at you.
- Maybe they fired several against me.

If so,
that Tjostolv shot the driver, -

- because a situation arose,
which was...

... unmanageable
maybe deadly ...

I can easily understand
that you can act on impulse.

I can also tell
more versions.

Let's say we were assaulted,
which we were.

Tjostolv says "run!" to the driver,
but he does not move.

So Tjostolv shoots him. I'm pulling him
out of the car, and then we drift away.

But Tjostolv did not shoot the driver,
And neither did I.

If it is unmanageable
and out there out?

If people run from one out there
in a situation like that?

I could have shot in that situation.
You could have shot in that situation.

- So now I shot the driver?
- No.

But I have no difficulty understanding
that you could have done it.

What happens, Joshua ...

When you don't say the truth,
we must make our truth.

It happens when people lie to one.
The most plausible version is it, -

- You're convicted. I ask
you recognize. It can get you home.

I can not. Had we done that,
I wouldn't tell you.

But the driver was there
on the trip up there.

And he was actually
within the intelligence service.

He probably knew what
would happen. So he got himself killed.

It was an indirect way
not to say anything.

An indirect way
not to say anything?

You have to keep in mind that I'm an assassin.
Yes I am.

I've had sharp tasks
as a mercenary in Africa, more.

I am a real assailant and it is
I am proud to have been down here.

Tjostolv was an assailant without it
negative, for soldiers are rapists.

Me and Tjostolv were mercenaries, -

- And we don't shoot
an innocent civilist.

But you say,
that Kasongo was a secretary.

He was most likely to be.

Mike?

Tjostolv? Tjostolv!

Pis.

Mike!

Tjostolv!

Mike! Mike!

Okay.

Help me now help you.
Give me anything, anything.

Soon it will be too late.

I have new.

The Tribunal has decided to prosecute
Joshua for killing Mr Moland.

Didn't you agree with us,
that there were no signs of violence?

You haven't given us anything,
nothing.

Now the court must reach
for a decision.

Sir. French.

As you can see, he seems
calm and relaxed.

But in reality
He is a very dangerous man.

If you met him in a civilian environment,
on the beach...

... he would be ready
to open fire.

For him it is pure child food to kill.

Here too we have laws.
This is not Norway. It's Congo.

It is my permanent intention, -

- that you should spend the rest
of life in captivity.

You should get a lesson for life.

As to whether to take into account
to mitigating circumstances, -

- The majority of the votes say yes.

Regarding,
if the defendant is guilty of murder, -

- shows the majority of the votes
by secret ballot, -

- the answer is yes.

Consequently, the court condemns
Joshua French -

- life imprisonment for the murder
Tjostolv Moland.

You ask me to change my mind
to what I believe in moral.

While you even for moral reasons
Don't do what it takes.

The Foreign Ministry knows it could
have bought us out a long time ago.

I've been afraid
to change me here. I have.

There are few who are pure in heart,
which is innocently minded.

There is hardly anyone there.

I can seem clinical, hard and
square and a little intellectual and ...

But actually I want to be more
like you, little Chesterfield.

I am telling
about my personality building blocks.

I'm really a boy from the country.

Who has talent and is fresh and jerky
and have good confidence,

- who is dutiful,
enthusiastic ... and grain farmer.

Who is ready for the military and knows
what to do and "yes, sir".

And know how to dig a ditch.
That boy is me.

Then I see,
that the world is more complicated.

There are adult men, and men are
strong and there are cynical men and ...

But I'm actually innocent,
completely clean.

And I have been afraid of
that it should change in me here.

Am I wrong?
Tjostolv did it.

He always fails.
Am I wrong? It did Tjostolv.

You shouldn't have run off.

I do not miss all the challenges
we had, -

- All the psychic
and practical and social.

Here in prison, not in life.

But I miss our friendship.

I miss your knowledge,
all the experiences and plans.

It's just like that, Tjostolv,
that you were unlucky.

In life, as a human being.

And that's not fair
that it was your heritage.

Or that you were made
thus.

I know I've been bothering you ...
much.

But you weren't like that, Tjostolv.
You were not like that.

And you weren't a killer.

You were a "killer".

You were not a killer.

And these are two different things.

We didn't know enough about Africa.

We were not amateurs.
We just didn't know enough.

Come on.
Stop it kidding.

Then someone comes.
So, sit down now.

Such.

- Where did you get that water from?
- I've been drinking it, you've seen.
