I Only Rest in the Storm (2025)

[bunniefuu]

Salaam aleikoum.

How are you?

Passport?

Can you cut the engine?

- Do you speak Spanish?

- Yes, I speak Spanish.

Can you turn off the car?

The card?

Your declaration? Your form?

My card?

Do you have a book? To read.

- Book?

- For me.

I can give you one.

But I have to look for it.

Ah, I found it.

Got it.

Here.

Thank you.

Can I go?

Thank you.

It's normal, it's just...

This is it.

Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

Bon voyage!

Good afternoon, ma'am.

You know where the mechanic is,

please?

The mechanic isn't here.

He had to go out, but he'll be back.

Come in.

Thank you.

How are you?

Thank you.

How's it going?

Do you want to eat?

Eating?

Yes.

Thank you.

LAUGHTER AND THE KNIFE

- Good morning to you.

- Good morning to you.

I have a reservation in the name of ONG CASA.

Yes.

Ah, so beautiful!

How much do they cost?

I think they're too small.

Let's find out.

They're too small, aren't they?

Yeah, too small.

But does it exist here 46, 47?

I haven't seen one anywhere.

Yes, there is.

Really? Where?

- Here in Bandim?

- Yes, here.

Ah, show me then.

Look, Marcelina!

Wait, let me see.

Look at this, Marcelina.

- Good evening. Good evening.

- Good evening. Good evening.

- Has anyone come for me?

- No, not yet.

We had to move your things

to room 16.

- Did you move my things?

- Yes, we did.

We received a customer

who is a friend of the house.

I'm very sorry.

You're a dad now!

Stop that. Let's get out of here.

- Good evening. Good evening.

- Good evening. Good evening.

Excuse me, could you turn the music

the music down a bit, please?

No.

Quiet, children! Please be quiet.

Nestor's son became a father

today.

We're celebrating. The birth of a baby.

We're going to want to rest too,

but we need to celebrate a little.

Until 2am, then we're off.

What's going on? Hi, guys.

Good evening. I was wondering if you could

if you could turn the music down a little.

Ah, of course.

Excuse us, okay?

Good evening.

What's the matter with you?

We were making noise.

- Hello!

- Yes?

I'm Srgio. I think I'm expected.

Okay, he's over there.

Sorry about the heat.

It's been a week

they've had to fix our air conditioning.

Federica will give us

an update on the status of the project.

Yes.

Yes. Srgio, hello. And welcome.

But welcome, welcome, welcome,

indeed.

We've been waiting for you,

we had a few problems

with your predecessor, Leonardo,

which has not yet completed its

environmental impact study,

which was detrimental to us.

I'll explain what's changed

from the old project.

We're in a coastal area

where the old road used to run.

We have a river downstream.

And the old chosen route

by the previous government

passed through the middle of a

turned into an environmental reserve.

We fought for it,

with other community players

to have this area recognized

as an environmental reserve.

Because here

a species of hippopotamus

endangered.

That's why we decided to modify

the original route

to this secondary route,

downstream of the river here.

Downstream from the river,

is another type of zone:

a wetland, of bolanhas.

These are rice paddies

set in marshland.

There are also many tabancas,

villages here,

around the road,

of the future road.

So we need to talk

with communities.

On that note,

I'd like to hand over to Glria.

Exactly.

Because community

of community is paramount,

for any site or activity

we'd like to establish.

I think it's

essential here

talk to communities

and make a preliminary diagnosis

to understand whether this situation

is acceptable to all.

Then comes the speech

financier, etc.

This represented

an opportunity for us,

with the change of government

which has enabled us

guarantee that the first zone

is turned into a reserve,

has become for us

a race against time.

We have the money from European funds,

but the Chinese

won't start construction

without your report

on the impact.

OK.

Thanks for all the information,

and for the pressure too.

I'm going to do my best

to get good results.

More. You have to do more than your best.

Yes, of course.

I also believe that we need to

prepare for the possibility

that the result of the

doesn't meet your expectations.

Exactly.

We have very little time

to move forward with this project.

We therefore need this study

as soon as possible.

Of course, while respecting

all conditions and aspects

necessary for the smooth running of the work,

without affecting producers,

and to avoid throwing more money

out the window, of course,

what we want to avoid at all costs.

- Auntie, hello!

- Hello, Auntie!

- Shape?

- How's it going?

- How are you?

- We're fine.

- How about you?

- Me, too.

I'd like to know the price of the meat.

The first is 5,000

and bone-in meat, 4,000.

I'd like this one.

It's local beef.

Not from China.

- 30,000, my friend?

- No, 35.

- I didn't ask you where it's from.

- It's local beef.

- No protein, no calories.

- My friend, cheaper, for your customer.

I have a restaurant. I'll...

- Madam, I have chickens.

- How many chickens?

20,000 francs a hen.

It's good chicken.

Give me the real price.

- 20,000, because she eats a lot.

- It can't be true.

- But she shits gold?

- No, she shits diamonds.

- Diamonds?

- That's why...

So, if it's diamonds,

give me both at 22.

Put this one and this one on.

- Weigh it.

- See? It's good stuff.

This ox ate

grass... 5.5 kg.

I'll take half your stall.

How much is this one?

40 000.

40 000 ?

- It's cheap.

- Cheap?

- How much is a bell pepper?

- 100 francs a piece.

No, I'll give you 50 francs.

I want 27 peppers.

- All right, then.

- All right?

- I'll pay, here's 30,000.

- Madame, madame!

- I'll be back for the peppers.

- You'll come back for them?

- I must hurry.

- Yes, you do.

I'll be right back, okay? I'll be right back.

Catch her! Catch her! Catch her!

Give me my money! Give me my money!

Madam!

Keep my bags, please.

Keep my bags!

Excuse me!

Hello ! I'm going to the main square.

- Come on in!

- May I come in?

Hello, my friend!

Can you drop me off at the crossroads

between Che Guevara and Frantz Fanon?

- Near the old palace, OK?

- Yes.

Thank you.

Thank you for keeping my bags.

You're welcome.

Are you all right?

Yes, yes.

I don't know what happened.

He thought I was someone else.

Here, enter this passage.

No. Can you go that way? Faster?

My friend, this way.

Hey, buddy,

can you take this passage here?

My friend!

Please, you can...

My friend, this way.

Listen, stop.

Stop, please!

You can...

Keep my things!

Check out Marcelina!

You didn't take the wig

400g wig, it's only human.

That hair...

Marcelina, that hair,

is it human or is it a pickup line?

They're human!

Of course!

Marcelina!

They're human.

I believe you.

Marcelina, can you braid my hair?

- Just one, please.

- Mistletoe!

Like the one you made

the other day at home.

- Mistletoe!

- Yes?

There's someone here to see you.

- Who is it?

- A customer.

Who? A customer?

- Hi.

- Hi.

I was told at the hotel to bring these bags.

- They're in...

- At Diara.

In Diara, that's right.

And?

And she's here?

No, she's gone abroad.

For a few days.

- I don't know.

- OKAY.

- But I can keep them for her.

- Okay, thanks.

- And who are you?

- Srgio.

- Srgio?

- Yes, and you?

I'm Guilherme.

Guilherme.

Getting ready for a party.

If you want, you can stay

with us for a while, we're having fun.

- We're just goofing around.

- Okay, fine.

Are you coming?

This is Srgio, we need...

- Hi, Srgio!

- Here we are!

Come on, give him a hug too!

Come on, everybody!

- How are you?

- Yes, and you?

Hi, how are you?

Clayton.

Clayton? Pleased to meet you.

Thank you for your time. May I?

You want a beer, water, juice...

or my body?

Hi, there.

Wait, the b*mb has arrived.

Wait! Wait! Wait! The b*mb has arrived!

If they're near,

they're calling us.

Those coming from outside

must have a wristband.

They must have their name on the list.

They will check the names

of everyone who comes in.

And do you work here for an NGO or...

on a construction site?

Who's your charming friend?

Is he Brazilian?

Portos!

- What's the difference?

- He's Portuguese from Portugal.

Brazilian and Portos,

what's the difference?

The difference,

is that one is white

and the other black.

Like, I'm black,

he's white.

No, you're white

and he's white.

I beg your pardon?

- You're white and he's white.

- Say it again!

- Am I white?

- Yes, you are.

- What about him?

- He's white.

You're crazy and he's crazy!

That's the only explanation.

He's white and I'm black.

He's Portuguese

and I'm Brazilian.

He colonized and I was colonized.

Now I understand.

But if there's anyone black,

it's me.

You're a beautiful black man, by the way.

You're white and he's white.

What's the difference?

I'm not white, honey.

No, I'm not going to argue anymore.

I'm not white.

No, I'm not white.

You're white.

I'm not white.

I'm black.

No, we're black!

Srgio! What a pleasant surprise!

Go, Marcelina!

I'm going to look for a friend.

I don't know if we

if we'll be able to get in today.

Yes, we are. We're going in.

Who is it?

- My colleagues.

- Leave them, come on, just you.

- Just you.

- Can't they come in too?

We'll give it a try.

How did you get here?

I came on a trip,

in search of something

I haven't found yet.

But I found...

I discovered that I don't come from

where I imagined.

Because, when I left Brazil,

I thought that here I could

affirm my African roots.

Are you comfortable here?

Most of the time, I feel lost.

But... Deep down,

you're never where you are.

- You think so?

- Yes, I do.

But aren't you here now?

No.

I'm in several places,

including here.

- OK.

- How about you?

What's your power?

- I'm going to be arrogant.

- So am I.

I'm going to say:

"I'm here, now."

Or it's too much...

Maybe it's too much...

I can't find the word.

The first that comes to mind.

Perhaps I'm being too naive.

It would be too much...

beautiful in person.

Really?

That's right!

Because to be here would be to be... here.

Well, I don't know,

there are a lot of people here.

But how do you see me?

Like a white man from Europe.

A white man, son of Europeans.

Clear-eyed.

Here.

Here.

And who,

in a way, scares me

in either direction.

I'm afraid...

Against the grain and in the original sense,

in the opposite direction.

I don't know.

Maybe that's what I'm looking for.

- Going against the grain?

- Always!

But why are you asking

so many questions?

- What do you want to know?

- I don't know. I don't know.

I'd like to get to know you.

I'd like to know more.

Tell me about yourself.

What did you find in Guinea

that you didn't find in Europe?

Lots of things.

I'm just going to protest

because of my lipstick.

I'm so sorry.

But why did you wipe yourself?

I don't know. Maybe it's the lipstick.

Because of the lipstick, maybe.

I didn't like it...

This regretted desire...

The hand that wipes away the kiss.

I don't know.

What we hear: white people stuff.

White stuff?

I hope you're not one of those people

who look at skin color

and think they know everything about a person.

I don't look. I feel it.

I feel it in my skin.

That's another thing,

that you don't know how to do.

I'm not hurting you, am I?

Your blood hurts me.

And you did it to me,

or you do to me.

- You mean me?

- Yes, you.

It's always the same.

You come

with your tender, affectionate air,

as if you wanted to heal

the wounds inflicted on us.

There's a white man

who once treated my wound.

- Really?

- Unfortunately. Funny, isn't it?

These sons of b*tches are still able

of healing wounds.

You're very predictable.

I can read your face.

- It's a race thing.

- Maybe you're right.

Maybe you're right.

Son of a b*tch.

How was that one?

I'm trying to remember.

My sister-in-law told Barbosa

That I have a lover

But even if I part

I have my well to drink from

My sister-in-law told Barbosa

That I have a lover

But even if I split up

I'm not going to lose

- Ah, OK.

- My sister-in-law...

Even if I don't win

I won't lose

My sister-in-law told Barbosa

- Is this how the song begins?

- Yes, it does.

My sister-in-law told Barbosa

That I have a lover

But even if I part

I have my well to drink from

They say they arrived

our country in 1444.

But the actual occupation

in 1912.

Can you believe it?

After the Berlin Conference.

Don't forget that between 1912 and 1935...

There was this w*r of "pacification".

It was divide and conquer.

- No, listen...

- You love this wrestling thing!

The veteran

who tells the story.

No, he's right. That's where the fight comes from.

- The dismemberment of our groups.

- Yes, resistance has always existed.

Since the beginning of colonialism,

there has been resistance.

The liberation struggle.

- That's why it happened.

- With all its faults.

She knows what she's talking about, Mom.

She can tell us

what happened.

That's why it took place.

Hey, Mom,

don't drop the ba*ls!

Those who suffered the most

are our parents.

Hard labor...

Road cleaning, taxes...

- Showing off our straw huts?

- Yes.

They were doing... what's the word?

The census.

- Census?

- The census.

Station managers

warned the village chief,

and, on the appointed day,

they came to take the census.

From age 18.

Families would gather

to the village center.

Everyone stayed in their place

and we counted the number

of people in the family.

Then they came

and asked how old everyone was,

because the miners weren't paying.

I remember a man, a Manjaque.

They asked him, "How old are you?"

And he replied, "15."

They asked someone else.

He also replied, "15 years."

"And you, father, how old are you?"

He replied, "15 years."

They asked: "Are you all

15 years old? Father and son, all 15?"

They couldn't pronounce 15.

They said "quinche" years.

- 15 years old.

- Quinche" years.

When Europeans

enter the African coast,

conflicts begin.

Conflicts over land,

to impose religion,

because they were kidnapping girls here

and taking them over there.

This led to tribal wars.

They set up strategies,

alliances with tribal chiefs.

They invented the marriage strategy.

They would come and say they wanted

to marry the chief's daughter.

They wanted to baptize the chief.

That's what we're doing here, isn't it?

A baptism?

That's when it all started.

Baptizing to be afraid of God,

for fear of hurting

to his neighbor.

To say that, just as

you respect your father and mother,

you must respect authority.

Because they are the fathers of us all,

of the nation, right?

Well, my friend?

Welcome!

- Thanks a lot!

- How are you?

Meet Srgio,

our new collaborator.

- How do you do?

- How do you do? Welcome home.

He came from Portugal by car.

My God, you must be dead.

- Almost.

- Of course it is.

Look, Horcio is here

with his baby and his wife.

He's been kidnapped by photographers,

he's on his way.

- Super. Great, thanks!

- How was the trip?

Excellent?

Excellent.

The country, the heat?

- Yes.

- Everything's perfect, right?

Oh, my darling! I've got to talk to you.

- Congratulations!

- Congratulations!

My darling, come and take

a picture with us!

May I?

Don't be a saint now

just because you're married.

Very funny, darling.

Can I have one

just with Horcio?

Do you want me to hold the baby?

Yes, perhaps.

- Here, my friend.

- How wonderful.

I'm just going to wet

my throat a little.

- Go ahead.

- You stay... Very well, then.

Comrade!

- How are you?

- Thanks for the invitation.

Srgio!

How do you do? Welcome, welcome!

What better way to present yourself

than a party at your place.

What are you talking about?

Have you been drinking? Eaten? There's plenty.

Before that, I'd like to offer this

to the parents, of course.

I hope he's still good.

He's had a long journey.

Wonderful.

From the Alentejo, my favorite region.

How do you say?

- A grand cru, right?

- It is.

I'm sure it is.

If it weren't so hot...

- And now a gin, yes?

- Come on.

How does that sound?

- Yes, that's a good idea.

- Shall we?

Let's go.

Excuse me.

So you made the trip by car.

I've always wanted to do it,

but with work...

- What kind of gin would you like?

- Normal gin.

That's normal. But it's not!

With red fruits.

- OK.

- Please go ahead.

But I wanted to tell you

that we're still working on the files.

The real work should start on Monday.

Sorry, I'm a workaholic.

I think people are always willing

to work, like me.

And you know how people are around here.

There's no objectivity up there,

do you follow me?

Here, people are prisoners of the past,

the meaning of things,

trees, rivers...

Not that they don't,

you know what I mean.

It's a question of loyalty,

of concentration.

Innovate, progress, try.

The ability to want more,

to want the best, the new.

This desire exists here,

everyone will tell you.

They don't want to say no to you,

that's what it's all about. It's amazing.

Nobody ever says no.

But they remain faithful

to what they know,

what they respect,

what reassures them.

Innovation, progress,

it's not easy to negotiate.

I don't know if you can understand me.

That's why you're here.

That's why we need to get this sorted out

before the rainy season.

We'll do everything by the book.

As long as you do it

within the rules, everything's fine.

I'm telling you all this

because you've just arrived.

- I'm counting on you.

- I'm counting on you.

That's what...

My aunt is leaving.

They're going home today.

She wanted to say goodbye,

kiss you.

- Are you coming?

- Yes, I'm coming.

We'll finish later,

enjoy your gin.

See you soon!

At the beginning of the fight, if something happened

at the tabanca,

the population found a way

to warn their companions.

For example, the

the Balantes have the "bumbulum".

If they played the "bumbulum",

the Balantes knew how to interpret.

They understood that,

in such and such a village, someone had died.

It was a way of preventing

other villages from danger.

This way, they knew

they knew if the Portos were coming.

- Like this bird, the "tchui tchui".

- Yes, the "tchui tchui".

For example, at night, in the countryside,

if you hear "chui-chui",

we know that an animal

or the Portos are coming.

The village can wake up

and the guerrillas get ready.

When the armed struggle began,

people left the city

to mobilize.

To inform the people

that there was going to be a w*r

and we were going to fight

against the Portos,

to give freedom to our people,

to become citizens of our country.

When the postmasters arrive,

you have to be there.

If not, the soldiers

come after you with a whip.

They break your face.

- Do they beat you up?

- Yes, they do.

I remember them

wearing khaki shorts.

They ran through the villages,

if they caught one,

they hit it.

They knocked a lot

and nobody asked why.

- It mobilized...

- A lot of people.

- They've joined the fight.

- How's it going?

Don't you drink anything?

Don't you understand Creole?

No. Very little.

Come over here! Come here, have a drink.

Cold beer is perfect

for the Bissau heat, believe me!

If you want cashew wine, go ahead.

- Don't k*ll him with your cashew wine!

- Don't k*ll him with your cashew wine!

He's just arrived

and you want to make him drink cashew!

It's super strong! Let's toast!

Here's to us!

Make yourself at home.

- Well, well, well! How are you?

- I'm doing fine.

- How are things?

- Yes, fine.

- Hi there!

- Hi there!

- Srgio.

- Yes?

Come on out! Come outside with us.

There's plenty to eat,

typical goodies,

local fruit.

- Come on! Come on!

- Yes, I'm coming.

All right, come on.

How are you?

You're everywhere.

What's your name?

Srgio.

Are you enjoying the party?

Yes.

Just one question:

how someone who has just arrived

ends up here?

How did you know I'd just arrived?

You smell like an airport, kid.

Actually, I drove here,

but I've just arrived.

- Here's to us.

- Here's to us.

I refuse to grow old

May my knees never weaken

There's still a long way to go

I refuse to grow old

Let my hands not grow soft

I need them

To build our country

I refuse to grow old

A senseless old age

You can bury my body

I don't care

I refuse to grow old, for the love

I have for you, Guinea-Bissau

I refuse to grow old

For the love I have for you

I refuse to grow old, for the love

I have for you, Cape Verde

I refuse to grow old because of love

I refuse to grow old

I refuse to grow old

- Kum di corpo?

- How are you?

- How are you?

- We're fine.

- Hi, Federica.

- Hi, Srgio! How are ya?

You're finally in the field.

Yes.

Giovanni, how are you? Hello.

Do you understand where we are?

No, not yet.

Over there, in the back,

where the big trees are,

50 kilometers to the north,

you've got the area we've managed to classify

as a nature reserve.

On this side,

that's where the new layout will be born,

where it will be built,

the new road will be built,

where the new route will be

that goes on for miles and miles

and kilometers to the desert.

Here, growers

are accustomed to building

a ring dike at the edge of the canal.

It cuts through the mangroves

salt water for a few years

to remove the salt

from the entire site.

The masters of mangrove rice

are the Balantes.

But there are other ethnic groups, such as

the Pepels, the Manjaques, the Floups,

who have adopted the same technique.

And the road will go right by,

right?

The road will pass through here in the middle, yes.

And, as a result, the route will be

much longer, right?

Yes, the route is much

longer, of course.

We have to cross the river.

We must also take into account

social impact,

to prevent people

from losing their land.

Yes, but the higher costs

are totally offset

by the creation of the protected area,

because of the hippos.

Especially because it's the only species

that still has 30 individuals.

The other species,

which are on the islands,

are different species.

Hence our duty to protect this one.

This job, Srgio, is very hard,

it's a job that's impossible to mechanize.

It's an ancestral system

that continues to be practiced today.

Can you ask if I can take

and talk to them?

You can. Of course you can.

- Good morning to you!

- Good morning to you.

May I? Take a picture?

- May I?

- Yes, you may.

May I?

Bojan, please ask

what they are doing.

What's it for?

He asks what you do.

If they're damaged, water passes through

and you can't grow.

If salt water passes through to the other side,

they won't have any rice.

The rice is on this side.

- They're going the other way now?

- Yes, they are!

Why?

Because there's water here.

We can't go on

lifting mud.

Thank you.

What's the matter with you?

I think I cut myself.

What's that?

An oyster.

- An oyster.

- Careful, careful.

It's good to eat, that's all.

- There's nobody here.

- Is there?

No.

- Anybody home?

- No, sir.

- The customs officer isn't here?

- No, he isn't.

Madame, there's a crowd waiting.

We've been waiting for the customs officer all morning.

I think that will be settled today.

We've been here all morning.

Is it here?

- Good morning, boss.

- Morning, sir!

I have the money to clear my car through customs

which has been here for four months.

- Shall we?

- Yes, we are.

- Be right there.

- OK.

- Hello, family!

- Hello, family!

- How are you?

- How are you?

- All right, give me your blessing.

- It's all right. It's all right.

Uncle Nico.

Madame Domingas.

What's up, baby?

- Yes, I'm here.

- Are you there?

- Grandpa, how is she?

- I'm here now.

- I'm fine.

- Are you?

- Are you sure?

- I'll be fine.

- Really? I'm fine.

- I'm fine.

Then it's going to get even better.

- Grandpa.

- Diara, it's been so long!

- It's been so long, it's true!

- How long has it been?

- How have you been?

- I'm fine. How are you?

- I'm fine.

- Are you?

- Did you hear from my brother?

- He's lost in the world.

Listen, Mom,

Diogo will take care of the car.

And every Friday,

he brings you 65,000.

No more, no less.

The surplus is for him.

- Why are you so skinny?

- Stop it, Beti!

- I'll fix you a plate.

- I don't want to eat.

I want to stay, like this, sexy.

Look, I brought you some lemon.

Mom.

Just one thing...

Diogo knows all about it,

if the car has a problem,

you call me, not the mechanic.

- OK?

- OK.

Look what I've found!

Can you say hello to Auntie?

We're very happy to be here.

The trip was very long.

The roads are really terrible.

But we're delighted to have arrived.

They said they were very happy.

The roads are not good,

but the trip went well,

thanks to God.

Are you staying here?

No, I just came to see...

something...

A water pump.

They want to show you...

latrines.

Here are the first latrines.

Here are the first latrines.

Every family has its own,

we're going to see them all.

Every family has its own,

we're going to see them all.

They look very good, very clean.

Where's the bucket of ashes?

Where did you put the bucket of...

- Ashes?

- Yes, ashes.

Hortncia says the bucket

was in the bathroom.

But the children knocked him down

and she took him away.

He was here, but the children...

They took him away.

OK.

Can you tell me

what you did before the latrines?

What was it like for you?

What did you do

before you had latrines?

Don't be embarrassed, we all do it.

You can speak without embarrassment,

we all do.

Ask her if she's happy

to have the latrine.

Ask her how she

she feels now.

Hortncia,

they ask how you feel.

Are you happy to have this latrine?

I'm very happy.

Because if it rains, if I'm in the forest

in the forest, I catch the rain.

I'm very happy.

She is very happy

to have the new latrines,

because, when it rains,

she doesn't have to go into the forest anymore.

She is very happy

to have the new latrines,

and now...

Because now,

in the rainy season,

she can't go into the forest anymore.

I'm very happy to see

that you're using them

and we hope that, from now on,

you will continue to use them

and our work here is done.

And that you can

continue this in the future.

You have the money to do it,

you have to make it

and do it without us.

I'd like to say that our ultimate goal

here is to disappear.

We want you

to become independent

in childcare.

And that you take the initiative.

We just came along

to lend a hand.

Our goal is for Guinea-Bissau to...

That you can

take charge of this initiative

and take care of your families...

- What's your name? Srgio?

- What's my name? Srgio.

I want to ask you a question.

If it's true what they say,

that in Lisbon

you pour drinking water

into the toilet.

- Water what?

- Potable. In the toilet.

- Me?

- You, over there, in Lisbon.

- Yes.

- Do you do that?

You do that?

Really?

No, you didn't understand

what I said.

- It's true. It's true.

- Is it true?

Do you put drinking water

in the toilet?

- In the toilet.

- In the bathroom?

You do that?

Yes.

I can't believe it.

- It's true. It's true.

- Is it true?

- Me and all...

- White people.

You do that?

Yes.

To thank you,

the Budjin community

prepared a gift for the delegation.

At the same time,

we prepare a lunch for you.

The women's representative

of the tabanca

will put the fabric back on.

We have other villages

to visit.

We can't wait,

we have to go.

We are very sorry. Thank you for your time.

- Thank you very much! Good-bye!

- Good-bye!

Stop saying my name!

From now on,

my name is Juniper.

Marcelina, get up and help me.

Enjoy your meal!

As you wish.

You're a woman.

It depends.

Please note.

You're a woman, Guilherme.

Why don't you feel me up

to see who's more of a woman.

My little Guilhermina!

I can also be

your little Guilhermina.

If you're nice to me, I can.

You're going to get drunk...

You're gonna get drunk.

Caution...

Who asked for beer?

How are you?

- Who asked?

- I want a kaimosa.

Kaimosa, do we have any kaimosa?

- Did you see who arrived?

- Who came?

Your new friend.

He seems to be fitting in well,

with Marcelina, with Edmilson.

See how he tries to fit in

- as if nothing was wrong.

- It's actually quite funny.

But his hair is moisturized,

ironed shirt...

He has to have someone to iron

his clothes. Classic pants.

Which NGO does he work for?

I think it's a humanitarian NGO.

All NGOs are humanitarian,

aren't they?

- So that's the one.

- Or they pretend to be.

My friend, that's the one!

- You like humanitarians.

- Do I?

Yes, you're human, my friend!

- No! I'll sit here.

- I'll sit here.

So, have you eaten?

See that red light

flashing?

It's imaginary,

but it's flashing, it's my radar.

- Is it flashing?

- The closer he gets, the more it flashes.

Seriously?

Do you trust him?

Self-confidence is everything!

Guilherme.

- Let's see if this radar is lost too.

- Watch out!

You could find your own radar

while you look for mine.

- I have a proposition for you.

- A proposition?

Since you put so much

trust this radar...

Do you want to hear it?

- Yes, a lot.

- No!

You can step aside, I want

to look you in the eye.

Since you're so confident

trust that radar,

I think we could see

- who hits the target first.

- Who hits the target first?

We bet.

Who tastes first...

- To the target.

- To food.

- And crunches it.

- Wins.

I'm going to win.

- My friend!

- My friend!

Look me in the eye!

Pedal!

My friend, I love you.

- I love you too.

- You know I love you.

But you know I hate to lose.

And I'm telling you, I'm going to win.

- No hard feelings!

- No hard feelings!

My darling, no hard feelings!

Guilherme.

Perpetual vow.

Perpetual vow.

Be quiet! No !

- Perpetual vow.

- I'm off!

Everything running smoothly?

- Pepels are worthless.

- How come?

They stole my dog

for a ceremony.

My mother is Pepel.

Pepels are worthless.

And who's your new friend?

It's The Boss.

Mistletoe!

Remove the tablecloths!

Marcelina!

Right here!

Diara!

Here!

This chair can't get wet!

I don't believe it!

Mistletoe! Mistletoe, leave it!

It's all wet.

Forget it, forget it.

We'll take care of the people.

Did you get the whole thing?

Yes, everyone paid.

Srgio is tired.

Me?

- Yes!

- No!

- I haven't seen you.

- No, you haven't.

It started to rain

and I didn't see you anymore.

Does it normally rain at this time of year?

Marcelina, please.

Thank you, Srgio.

We're going home.

You go ahead.

No, I'll wait for you.

Thank you, friends.

- Thank you for your time.

- You're welcome!

- See you tomorrow.

- Is Srgio staying?

Is he closing the bar for us?

Srgio.

- Yes?

- My hands are wet,

can you turn off this light

for me?

- How do we do it?

- The switch is here.

Thank you.

Let's go.

- Oh, my darling.

- So, where are we going?

You're going home, aren't you?

I'm so sorry.

The cab is full.

No problem.

- Thank you for your time.

- See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Cruel...

Let it marinate for a while.

How are you?

And Maria Antnia?

- Is she all right?

- Come over here. There you go.

Today she's not very well.

She looks like she's sick.

She comes to see me every day

to eat a piece of cardboard.

It's what she prefers, cardboard.

Come here.

Come on.

Come here, Antnia.

Come on.

Come on.

Are you married, Bojan?

More or less.

More or less?

What does this mean?

I'm having trouble with my wife.

Any problems? Serious or minor?

Family problems.

We got married the first time

when I was 23.

First time?

Yes, because we had a problem

and we drifted apart.

Then we got back together

when I was 29.

I thought you could have

three wives.

Really?

It's the Muslims who can

three or four wives.

Not us, the animists.

- Animists?

- Yes, animists.

What is it?

It's like the Catholics,

for example,

who have their own rituals.

So do we animists,

we have our rituals

under the cheese trees

or other large trees.

That's where we do everything.

We have this suitcase

which has a device inside

who will connect

to these two machines, Bojan.

These here are sensors.

Sensors because they smell.

And how do they smell?

They have this little light here.

See?

It's called a laser.

When a solid body passes by,

it sends a signal to this

who takes a photo,

if set correctly,

and sends the photo

to my computer.

Animists have their own culture.

But this culture

varies from one animist to another.

For example, the Balantes

have a way of worshipping,

to perform ceremonies

for their "Irs".

The Floups have their own way of doing things.

The Mancagnes have another way of worshipping

of worship and ceremony.

Each ethnic group...

What's yours?

I'm a Mancagne.

What other rituals do you have?

We have the "toca-choro",

the "fanado"...

What is "toca-choro"?

It's a ceremony we perform

for a deceased relative,

sometimes a long time ago...

It also depends on the condition

of the family.

She performs a ceremony

she must sacrifice an animal,

it could be a pig or a cow,

but normally

we do it with a cow

sacrificed.

His blood is spilled.

Blood is used to honor the dead,

ancestors.

In the toca-choro ceremony

or Ir,

blood is always spilled.

Even a man,

to become a real man,

must lose blood,

on the occasion

of the so-called fanado.

The fanado?

What is it?

It's a very sacred ritual.

A secret that happens in the bush

stays in the bush.

f*cking...

Salaam aleikoum.

Is it over?

No ?

Not yet?

Taking a break?

Yes.

Bojan.

Here, the meal.

Do you eat chicken, Bojan?

I'm going to eat this without chicken.

- Is it?

- Yes.

Do you have water?

Is there any water?

- Here?

- Yes.

Thank you.

Mr. Engineer, don't do it!

The company prohibits

giving water to the premises.

That's the rule.

Well, Mr. Engineer,

you know what you're doing.

But these men are thirsty.

The last person who did this

got screwed.

If there's a problem,

tell them I didn't know.

Just pretend you didn't see anything,

OK?

If anyone asks, I won't tell.

You have to get me a job,

bro, because...

It's not okay. No, it's not.

The bosses want to screw us,

that's the way it is.

To earn their money,

they take us for their sl*ves.

And we do a twisted job.

They want to exile us to some

desert, and that's not possible.

Hurry the f*ck up!

Even a clerical job, anything.

You've got to earn your keep.

Hello? Hello? Hi, love! How are ya?

That's great! So much the better!

What's the program?

Do you know what you'll be doing tomorrow?

So do I! To the cinema?

Are you going to the movies with Mommy?

Oh, I want to go too.

Listen, you're gonna give mommy a big hug...

to Mom for me...

I've just learned

that my mother-in-law is in hospital.

I'd love to hear from her.

Come on, give Mommy a big hug

and a kiss for Mommy, okay?

Because today

I'm not going to talk to her.

I'll call later

to talk to her, okay?

A big kiss!

Bye for now! Love you.

Yes, I love you very much.

And when is she going

these tests?

The 15th of next month?

All right.

And when is the little one

she going back to school?

All right, then.

Next week, already? SURE.

And how are the olive trees?

Do they have lots of olives?

Do you have people to pick them up?

Yes, it's sad,

there's hardly anyone left.

Do you have a light, Ermnio?

Yes.

Wait a minute.

Where are you from, Mr. Engineer?

Sorry, Ermnio.

Don't call me that.

What's up?

What should I call you?

As you wish.

Call me by my first name.

Do you have a fever?

I don't know.

Would you like a whisky?

Isn't that bad?

No !

It cleans everything.

I don't mind.

Hold this.

Ciproflox...

It's an antibiotic.

We can't take it like that!

It cleans you right out.

It's the best.

It cures you straight away.

When this happens to me, it's SOS direct.

Direct, otherwise...

Don't go to stage two.

By stage two, you're f*cked.

We've got to get straight to work.

It cleans everything.

It gives you the shits.

You've got the shits, but you sh*t

your guts and you sh*t it all out.

A fortnight ago, I came down with malaria.

I had to wait three days

for them to send me a Cuban doctor,

over there, from the main construction site.

The guy wasn't coming.

I heard there was a little Black girl

who was about to give birth.

Something like that.

When he arrived...

I don't even know what he gave me.

It drove me up the wall.

I think it was quinine.

Quinine?

I think so.

That thing f*cked me up.

And if you want to know everything...

When I entered the canteen,

the ch*nk saw me...

He looked like he'd seen a ghost.

His eyes widened.

They're all f*cking racists, those guys.

To them, we're not white.

And with the Senegalese and Guineans,

they're even worse.

Why?

Those, when they have an accident,

they throw them in the ditch.

And they say nothing to the families.

I swear, this place is...

It's a real slaughterhouse, yeah.

A real slaughterhouse.

And what enrages people the most,

is that the worst are the Blacks.

They're r*cist against each other

to each other, even.

How did you get here?

I don't know how to do anything else,

I had to do something for myself.

I'm surprised at you,

an educated young man like you.

Didn't you have a job there?

Or do you like adventure?

Or have you come to enrich yourself?

You thought it was Eldorado here,

that money grew on trees?

- Well, maybe...

- Well, no...

Look, if you want my advice,

get lost.

No one here is interested.

Send, Ermnio.

Pass the meat, pass it.

I'll f*cking take care of it.

- Mine's toast, okay?

- What a boss, that Joca!

If there's a brave man,

bring it on.

Some of them help.

- The others only know how to open it.

- It talks and does nothing.

No, but listen to him.

Do you need a sailor to teach you

to teach you how to make fire, or what?

Hi there!

What luxury! Are we celebrating?

Come and join us.

We're celebrating the birthday

of my daughter Patrcia, who is 17.

Congratulations!

She's in Portugal,

I haven't seen her for three years.

I've decided to throw

a little party.

- A small pleasure.

- You're a little late.

Come and have a bite to eat

with us.

- Please, sit down.

- I'm fine. I'm fine.

- Have a drink.

- There's some cold beer.

- Blonde water.

- Come on.

I'll keep you company.

And you don't eat anything?

No, I'm fine, thanks.

Taste this meat, it's good.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. We're fine.

Next time,

there'll be pork too.

- Really? Very good.

- Yes.

- You'll let me know.

- Oh yeah...

She's 17, my princess.

It's a head, like you.

- Me? No...

- All worried about the world.

Saving whales, polar bears,

mosquitoes... At last.

The things young people

love today.

Fortunately, when it comes to intelligence,

she takes after her mother.

Bojan, are you all right?

Yes.

Everything okay at home?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Don't worry about it,

what's going on right now?

No.

I was told that,

in the village of Bojan,

there are problems related

with our work.

Is that true, Bojan?

Problems are normal.

That's right.

But there are problems and problems,

Bojan.

Some problems are more serious

than others

that have more serious

consequences than others.

I hear your wife and sons

are among the leaders

of the protest movement

against the construction of this road.

I don't know if it's true.

People talk...

I work here. After that,

when I go there, everything will be resolved.

Everyone has their own way of thinking.

Young people can be

for this route.

Elders and farmers

are against it,

because they're going to lose part

of the land they worked on.

We tell them

it's for development.

Development,

that's what we have to weigh up.

Some want it,

others want to go on living

like this.

The fields they farmed,

they will lose them.

What will become of them?

But hey.

Joo, what about the sardines?

They're in the freezer.

But they're just for us,

aren't they?

Only for us, yes, not for them.

Bring back the sardines!

Do you like frozen sardines?

That's fine by me.

For want of a better word.

I don't eat them frozen,

but grilled, yes!

Not frozen.

What is this sh*t?

Ousmane!

Ousmane, come here right now!

What the f*ck is this?

What's it doing in the freezer?

I don't know.

Don't you know?

But aren't you the one

in charge of the food?

I don't know.

Is that what you're putting

in our junk, you son of a b*tch?

- What's going on here?

- Are you trying to k*ll us?

Those sons of b*tches want to k*ll us,

or what?

Did you see that?

Come and see! Come and see!

These sons of b*tches want to k*ll us!

Look what he's putting

in our barbaque.

It was in our freezer.

Check it out!

Calm down, Joo. Take it easy.

You're f*cked.

Calm down, Joo. This is mine.

- Is this yours?

- Yes, I put it there.

Did you put that there?

Yes, they're samples.

My freezer's on the fritz.

It's nothing.

But couldn't you

put this somewhere else?

You were going to put it

in our freezer?

Are you stupid or what?

It's sealed, everything's fine.

You can eat without fear.

I'm not touching that sh*t anymore,

f*cking me!

Do you really think

I'm going to eat this?

You can't put that

with our food!

You can't do

whatever you want!

You're quite right. I'm sorry, sir.

What if it transmits a virus,

sh*t, bacteria?

- Calm down, Joo.

- What a jerk!

Ah, God.

I'm so f*cking sick of you!

I'm f*cking sick of you!

Fed up!

Calm down, Joo.

Calm me down?

I was too calm with you, yes.

Since you arrived,

you've been ignoring me,

I don't exist for you,

you don't respect me,

and you want me

to accept your apology?

I'm going to tell you

as politely as I can:

you can stick it up your a*s!

Calm down, Joo. Think of your daughter.

Don't you f*cking talk about my daughter!

You've just ruined

my daughter's birthday

and you bring her back again

with my f*cking daughter?

It's nothing, trust me.

Yes, it's something!

For you, it's still f*cking nothing!

I'd love to smack you!

And one of these days,

it's going to come down on you.

Beware, there are plenty of places

where it's best not to wander off on your own.

- Calm down, Joo.

- Take it as a friendly word of advice.

Don't forget what happened

to your Italian predecessor.

At the moment,

he's eating dandelions by the roots.

Don't do anything you'll regret,

Joo.

Be careful, it could happen to you.

Now get the f*ck out of here!

You've already ruined

my daughter's party, you as*h*le!

You're f*cking finished for me!

f*ck!

What's going on?

It was engineer Srgio

who put the bags in the freezer.

That's what caused the problem.

Okay, put it away.

Sit here.

Is this a wake or something?

Let's keep the party going!

Come on.

Bring it on, let's drink!

Ermnio!

- Come on, bring something!

- So we can toast, come on!

Come on.

To my daughter Patrcia

and to our families who are far away!

- Go away!

- I told you to leave me alone!

Leave me alone!

I'm telling you, let go of me!

Come on!

What's going on?

Come here! Come here !

Let go, I tell you!

These assholes can't hold their liquor.

Stay out of it, Mr. Engineer.

Then they come and mess things up.

They're just a pain in the a*s.

Come here, you sh*t portos! Let go of me!

Stay out of it,

Mr. Engineer!

- Can you hear me?

- Come here!

I'll tear your hair out!

Come on!

Come here!

So, what's going on here?

There's no problem between you and me.

- I only want to k*ll him.

- Hamedna, listen to me.

Here, all the problems

are my problems, okay?

No, leave me alone.

I only want to k*ll him.

He'll be punished and you'll pay

a good compensation, okay?

I don't want money.

I want to do to him what he did to me.

- Let me go, I'm telling you!

- Listen to me!

If you hit him, you go to jail,

but if you hit me,

nothing's gonna happen to you.

- Leave me alone!

- No, listen!

- Leave me alone!

- No, listen!

I'm telling you!

- Let go of me!

- Hit me!

- Let go of me!

- Let go of me!

- Let go of me!

- Hit me!

- Hit me!

- Leave me alone, I'm telling you!

Hit me!

- Get away from me! Come here, you!

- Hit me!

- Hit me, Hamedna!

- Leave me alone!

Leave me alone!

Leave me alone!

- Leave me alone, I tell you!

- Go away!

- Come on!

- Stop it! Stop it!

One day I'm gonna find you

on the road and I'm going to k*ll you.

Come here!

Get on top of me!

Come on!

We all need a change of scenery.

No more faggotry,

we're all going clubbing.

Srgio!

I know I'm quick to jump in,

but I don't hold grudges, okay?

We're not gonna let this crap

ruin our relationship.

We're professionals,

we're here to work.

Come along.

I'll buy you some rice wine,

it's the best you'll find here.

Are you coming?

OK.

Come on.

We look forward to seeing you.

What was all that about,

about the Italian?

Wow! There are several theories.

He got together with a little Black

and wanted to take it with him to Europe.

He even wanted to divorce his wife.

But she never wanted a divorce

and he never got the visa.

I knew him well.

He often came with me

for drinks.

It commands respect!

My guess is that he ran off

with little Black.

Who hasn't?

A pretty little Black.

Careful, careful.

He's drunk or dead.

- Speed up, damn it!

- Watch out, watch out!

It's a f*cking ambush!

We've got 10 or 20 guys coming in.

- Careful! Careful!

- He's drunk or he's dead.

Stop! Wait! Wait! Wait!

Stop the car!

Stop the car! Stop the car!

I know the trick.

Don't stop, keep going!

They want to k*ll us!

Stop the car, damn it! Stop the car!

He had it all planned.

He had prepared everything

to get away with it.

They found his car

on the side of the road with his belongings.

Go find out what happened.

What's to drink?

Is there anything stronger?

Do you understand?

Melissa!

Melissa, baby!

Are you all right?

All right?

You're about to taste this rice alcohol.

Beer's fine.

No beer for you.

Rice alcohol first.

No, no, no.

Rice alcohol.

Is that it?

Yes, a little.

A little.

- Are you ok?

- I'm fine.

Thank you.

What's up?

Yes, it's good.

Careful, don't overdo it.

Heavy stuff.

For him too.

No, no.

Yes, yes. For him too.

Thank you.

A little, yes.

Hi there!

How are things?

Fine, and you?

Here I am.

What does this mean?

It means I'm okay,

I guess.

You guess?

- Yes.

- Do you speak English?

Yes. Do you speak French?

Yes, a little.

Then we can speak in French.

Yes.

- Do you understand what I'm telling you?

- Yes, yes, I understand.

Exactly.

But my French is "petit".

You seem to be getting the hang of it.

I don't know.

We can also speak in English

if that's easier.

No !

No !

That's what you came for, isn't it?

No.

Stop.

What's wrong with you?

Do you want to be here?

Why are you here?

I can't, I can't.

Off you go, then.

Go away!

Come on!

"I can't do this."

Then don't.

So?

Can you at least get excited?

So we can get it over with?

I'll give it a try.

Well, your buddy paid,

but he didn't pay for the whole night.

You think I care?

What's on your mind?

Working conditions

of sex workers?

The well-being of women in this country?

Human trafficking, perhaps?

Minimum wage?

Does that concern you?

Drinking water for everyone?

Is that what's bothering you?

I wish I could be like you.

You have no idea

what it's like to be me.

You don't know what it's like to be me.

I'm not pretending to be interested.

Yes, that's the difference.

Maybe that's the difference.

But I care.

Yes, I do care.

Yes, of yourself,

your personal comfort.

To go to a brothel

and be a moralist.

That's your concern, yes.

What disgusts me most...

...are good men.

I don't understand what you're saying.

What disgusts me most,

is good men. Just like you.

Excuse me, please. Thank you for your time.

Excuse me.

I need you to open up here.

- Yes. Hold on, I'm coming.

- Is this okay?

I'll do it, yes.

Take a look! Wealth!

The face of wealth!

This is for you.

Now your trip

is beginning to please me.

Look at the size of that thing,

for my size.

I love it!

Help me, darling, please.

Wait, I'll duck.

But I think you need

braids, my love.

Yes, but I just want

to feel it now.

- Help me, come on.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait.

- Like this?

- Put this in.

Go ahead.

Where's the elastic?

You want me to pull it over here?

Here it is.

I missed you terribly, I swear.

Can you put that away?

Here, please. Can you display it?

That too.

Take the suitcase.

- Take it easy.

- Hello, who's there?

- Good morning to you!

- Good morning to you.

We thought you were tidying up

your things, but no.

Why put my things away?

You have been informed that this location

has a new owner.

This place? It can't be.

Our boss asks

when you plan to return the premises.

- Which boss?

- Our boss.

Our boss said

he was giving up this place today.

- And we don't talk about it anymore.

- But how?

This place is mine.

Do you know it?

I don't understand,

I spoke to your superior

and he said it was all resolved.

- I don't understand.

- Our superior?

- Really, I'm confused.

- Who is this superior?

It's time to close this place down,

no discussion.

- No, madame.

- You have a lot of debts to pay.

- Full of debt?

- Yes, we are.

My friend, I've just told you

that I have spoken to your superior

who told me everything was resolved.

Now..,

you're saying I'm in debt?

See this space?

It's a place that welcomes

all the important people of Bissau.

OK, we'll give you three months

to vacate the premises.

- It can't be.

- Madam! Madam!

- Yes.

- Madam! Madam!

It's time to close up

and vacate the premises.

We've already been here twice,

you have to leave now.

See that mango tree over there?

- Can you see it?

- Yes, I see it.

It was my great-grandmother

who planted it.

So there's nobody in this country

who will drive me out.

I told you that I called

your superior

and he said it was all resolved.

This mango tree is my rest,

it's my shadow.

This place is all I have.

Neither you nor anyone else

will make me leave here.

I ask you

to let me work in peace.

Let me earn my living.

- You've been deceived.

- I beg you.

I'm asking you to leave.

You can't evict us, no!

Can't I?

You're expelling me!

You've been here before,

I told you it was resolved.

You didn't bring any paper, nothing.

Where's the paper that says

I owe you money?

You've got nothing.

My friend, excuse me.

- Right, then...

- Let's get on with it.

- Hi, how are you?

- Hi, how are you?

Who are you?

- Me?

- Just kidding!

You scared the hell out of me!

What happened to your bar?

- It's complicated, forget it.

- Forget what?

- Come in.

- May I come in?

- Of course.

- Thank you for your time.

Have a seat.

OK.

Would you like a drink?

Do you have any tea?

Can you make them?

Do I know how to make tea?

Warga.

Warga? But you drink warga?

I like it.

You know it's a hard drug?

I'm sorry. I... I just...

I was looking at your incense.

I've seen it.

What luck!

Gas!

I hope I wasn't interrupting anything.

I wouldn't say that.

But you want to ask me

a more direct question?

Were you doing anything

before I got here?

- Yes.

- What's up?

I braided my hair.

Sorry, I just don't like to see

messy hair.

I'm just fixing your hair.

Deluxe by Diara.

- Does it make you laugh?

- Yeah, it does.

It's the best tea of your life.

Told you.

You're right.

I missed it.

Would you like some more?

Do you need anything?

I need to rest.

It's time.

Hang on a sec. What's going on?

I want to rest.

We'll talk some other time, then.

I'd like to ask you a few questions.

Questions about what?

About you.

About me?

Yes.

Let's let life take its course.

right now,

I really need to rest.

Thank you.

- Ciao, thanks for the tea.

- It was nothing.

Good night.

What's that?

Goat meat.

And you let it cook for a long time,

right?

What's in it?

What do you put in it?

- Onions...

- Srgio.

Yes ?

Holy sh*t...

It's going to be a bloodbath.

When you know how to k*ll,

you don't shed blood.

Look at the look on his face.

Srgio, can we afford

to save one?

- Just like that, on a whim.

- You mean now?

We buy one to save it.

We'll ask the price.

I'm going to ask!

- 50 000, 65, 55...

- OK.

All right.

- Well...

- What's up?

I think there's one

that costs 50,000,

but there's a more expensive one.

He said between 50, 60, 65.

He says they can cost

up to 120,000.

And you'd save the poorest one?

Yeah, that's another question.

Do I save the cheapest one?

The world is full of questions.

The cheapest or the most expensive?

Or the middle one.

- Maybe it's the best.

- Or the most tender?

If you looked at them like that,

which one would you save?

At first glance.

- I wouldn't save the white girl.

- Yes, but then...

- I wouldn't save the white one.

- Would you? No? Okay.

- No way!

- OK.

But she too... Poor thing. But why?

No, I won't save the white one.

There are enough white people in history

so she'd understand,

and I'm not a goat.

- All right, then. Three to go.

- I'll save the black one, of course.

Which must be the most expensive,

because it's big and fat.

- What's yours?

- I think it's the most expensive.

But I don't know...

The youngest.

- The youngest of them all.

- Cute.

- That's a terrible choice.

- I think it's sweet.

Because she has more time

than the oldest.

Yeah, she lived less.

Imagine if people decided like that

our lives.

Like, the youngest lives,

the older one dies.

We could dance the tango here.

- Shaking your booty.

- Tango here? Come on.

No, it was a stupid suggestion!

What's tango like?

It's not like that.

That's the way it is.

Pedal!

Don't do that.

- You have to guide, I'm a lady.

- I know you are.

Is it like that?

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Are you going out tonight?

Yes.

I'm going clubbing with Diara.

I think she's asleep.

She doesn't sleep.

You know her better than I do?

I'm her best friend.

She said she was going to sleep

and kicked me out.

She lied to you,

maybe to keep you away...

How do you know she lied?

That's just my perception.

She told me she was going to sleep

and she kicked me out of her house.

You must have done something,

it's not like Diara

to do that for no reason.

Unless you deserve it

or you like it.

Yeah, I love it.

- Some like it, I don't judge.

- I love to be hunted.

I can see you in this role.

No, I'm coming.

I'm going to ask Diara

if you can come...

No, no!

What do you mean? She didn't want to...

Please don't

don't tell her I'm coming.

Of course not. Surprise, surprise.

- She loves surprises.

- She doesn't know you know

that I was at her place. Or was I?

- What's up? You were at her place?

- She didn't tell you!

You're the one who's being secretive,

because she and I are friends.

-You're being secretive.

- She was going to tell you.

But what happened

this afternoon?

Nothing. It wasn't the afternoon,

it was now.

I was at her place just before.

Why?

What's up? I was at a friend's house,

someone I like.

- But anyway...

- Anyway.

I'm meeting her in 20 minutes

at the Sabura.

Come if you want, she'll chase you away.

I'm coming.

Hey, bimbo!

- What about your phone?

- I was making myself beautiful!

- For 30 minutes?

- Sorry!

Oh, sorry?

- Look who's here.

- Hi, there!

Hi there!

You here?

I didn't say I was going to sleep.

Tea gave me insomnia.

Shall we?

Let's go.

How are you?

Hi there!

How are things?

Good.

It's good to see you.

- Everything running smoothly?

- Quiet?

- Good evening.

- Good evening. Good evening.

- Srgio, right?

- Right.

- We're off. Are you coming?

- I... I'm coming.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Can't you stay

a few minutes with me?

I'll bring you one.

Didn't expect to see you

with them, buddy.

Have you known each other long?

We're friends.

Be careful, friendly advice.

I sensed a certain atmosphere

between you, didn't I?

If you look into Medusa's eyes,

she'll explode in your face.

What do you mean, a mood?

Paying attention?

With Medusa, my brother.

I'm telling you, if you look Medusa

in the eyes...

Poof!

It blows up in your face.

You don't know the city well,

you don't know what's going on.

It's not cool to talk like that

about a friend, isn't it?

Take it easy. It's because

she's my friend I'm saying this.

You don't have to be aggressive,

buddy.

I didn't mean to give you

this kind of tip.

I was just kidding, bro.

I'm telling you to take it easy, that's all.

Nothing more.

You're giving me

romantic advice, aren't you?

I beg your pardon? Not at all.

But you land

somewhere exotic, you feel...

emotionally involved,

it's all very exciting and exotic.

I'm just saying take it easy.

I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

I thought your money

would make you less vulgar.

Brother, I'm sorry.

You misunderstood me.

I didn't want to invade your life,

your privacy.

You know what you're doing, buddy.

We're fine. Look, we're having fun.

I can feel you tense up.

Let's have a drink and start afresh.

We're starting from scratch.

Here's to a life of consequence.

I know it's not easy being here.

I know it's not exactly

what you may have imagined.

I know you arrive and you see

a lot of contradictions and...

It might, I don't know, throw you off.

You see a guy like me,

who has money, a nice house,

a nice car.

You go down the street, you see poverty,

the sh*t, the stench, the rot.

You come to my house, you see my family,

you see me and...

It's deeply unfair

and it's our fault, isn't it?

"The primitive accumulation of capital",

do you know what that is?

My brother, if you're thinking about Europe,

this civilized, structured Europe,

magnificent cathedrals...

You don't see the blood

running down the walls.

Architecture, engineering, medicine.

Blood and more blood

and more blood.

Ruptures, reconstructions,

permanent reformulations.

Constant exchanges of power.

Borders that go up

and dismantling.

In the name of God!

Absolute barbarism.

How do you think, brother,

that there are people

who control cement,

who control the media,

who controls telecommunications?

Who are these people?

Where did they form?

How long did it take them to establish themselves?

We lack the millennia

to rival them.

We'll be crushed without...

no tolerance whatsoever.

Put yourself in the shoes

of those who design hospitals.

So-called solidarity is simple

when everything is already there.

In your opinion, how do you go about getting

three meals a day?

To give calcium to the body,

the best is milk.

Semi-skimmed cow's milk.

Do those with empty stomachs

the means to think?

Those without a guaranteed meal

can they articulate thought?

Who can make things happen?

The elites,

those who have time to think,

time to organize,

time to plan,

they can offer an opportunity.

With no guarantees whatsoever.

And the price?

We have to live with it

or we can do nothing.

One can adhere to the barbarism

of laissez-faire,

believe it's organic,

that it's just the way it is.

Tell yourself that what we're trying

to do here,

it's the same thing

they did over there,

but with less blood,

less brutality

and in a shorter time.

Not everything is thought out,

not everything is articulated.

Yes, people are going to die,

they're going to suffer, it's going to hurt.

But how to do it painlessly?

Can you tell me?

How to do it without shedding blood?

If we wait until there's a code,

I don't know...

of truth.

If we wait until there's...

a sense of community embrace...

It's capital,

the market, private initiative.

It's you.

What?

It's you.

- You mean me?

- Yes.

It's us. We are.

With the determination to transform the world,

to deconstruct what's going wrong,

and what can bring

a new reality.

Progress.

Why not?

That's one way of looking at it.

- Yes, progress.

- That blackmail.

This has nothing to do with blackmail.

- Imagine what the world is like...

- Blackmail.

Listen up!

Eternal.

We haven't decided anything.

It was over there,

that we made the rules,

that we signed the contracts.

There we drew the lines.

That's enough, my friend.

Thanks, I'm fine.

I'm going to dance with my friends.

Stop it!

Stop it!

- Stop it, please!

- This is our song!

This is our song.

I told you to f*cking stop!

I woke up at dawn

Looking for bif

To rule the streets

To bring some back to the nest

I was born poor

But I'll die rich

C'est la vie

It's not for bolosses

I woke up at dawn

Looking for bif

To rule the streets

To bring some back to the nest

I was born poor

But I'll die rich

Days go by

And my mother gets older and older

She has to eat thanks to my job

I've done nothing as your son

My God, I'm on my knees:

Lord, enlighten my life

Grant me peace

I want to be a good dealer

I want to have lots of diamonds

I want to have lots of passports

I want to walk on every continent

What the f*ck do you want?

What the f*ck do you want?

This is my place. I'm going there.

Marcelina!

Yes !

I'll take you home.

I'll drop you at home.

No.

Then let me stay

with you for a while.

I don't want to be alone,

it was crazy, the whole thing.

Do you agree?

No.

Why?

Because no.

Horcio.

Srgio.

I'm sorry I called you that

and we'll meet back here.

Would you like to join me

or would you rather wait for me to finish?

I'll join you.

Very good.

I was worried.

I should hope so.

I wanted to talk to you too.

You wanted to talk to me?

Perfect, I'm here, I'm listening.

What happened to Leonardo?

I beg your pardon?

Leonardo.

You knew him well, didn't you?

What do you mean?

what happened to Leonardo?

I feel you have

something to tell me.

Yes, that.

What do you think

happened to him?

I don't know.

I'd like to know.

I asked you here

because we need to talk.

We've got some unfinished business, haven't we?

Why did it take so long

to submit his report?

What did he do

in the meantime?

When did you last see him?

Is this an interrogation?

What's going on here?

According to you,

what happened to Leonardo?

Do you think it's possible

that he was m*rder*d?

Do you have any idea of my relationship

with Leonardo?

Do you know who he was to me?

We were friends.

We were trying to solve

the Northern Reserve problem.

I don't know what it is,

I feel you have a theory.

I have one, yes.

Want to share?

My theory..,

is that I feel that something is going to happen to me

what happened to him, right?

He's disappeared, hasn't he?

Last time I saw him,

Leonardo was fine.

Very good.

And I want to believe that now,

he's doing even better.

The important thing is that you know

that you can secure your future here.

You just have to hurry up

to decide what you want to do.

Take a stand.

End of discussion.

Make up your mind.

Decide what you want, but make up your mind.

And I can help you.

50,000 euros.

Anytime.

Wherever you like.

No receipt, no nothing.

Fast, simple.

100 ?

Just listen.

I won't waste time

explaining

why it has to be this way

and who

involved.

I'm not asking you to do this or that.

I'm asking you to take a stand.

Can you tell me where we're going?

Don't you trust me?

Stop being so nosy, okay?

Do you trust me?

I don't want to know.

I saw your friend.

Ah?

- Who are you?

- Horcio.

The great Horcio?

The great Horcio.

And how was it?

Have you seen him lately?

We talked.

Yes ?

Do you know if he has a vested interest

in building the road?

Not that I know of, but,

knowing him, it's possible.

Why?

Because he offered me a lot of money

for me to hand in the report

sooner than expected.

A lot of money, how much?

100,000 euros.

100,000 euros?

- 100,000 euros?

- Yes.

I never would have believed

you were worth so much.

100,000 euros?

He offered me 150,000 euros.

I'm sorry, but I'm stuck

to the 100,000 euros!

Holy cow!

He says the work needs to progress

before the rainy season.

He's in a hurry.

And what did you say?

I refused, of course.

- Of course it is.

- It's insulting.

It's insulting...

But tell me, weren't you

about to finish that report?

- Yes, it is.

- And, from what I understand,

ecologically,

it's advantageous, isn't it?

Ecology,

can be many things.

Like what?

But are you suggesting the possibility

that I might accept this money?

No, Srgio.

I'm trying to understand

why you were offered 150,000 euros.

I explained it to you.

In fact, I already have all the data,

but I don't want to anticipate anything.

I want to do my job properly.

But if you have all the data,

what's stopping you from wrapping up

and handing in your report?

Because I want to follow procedure.

I don't want to do it like this.

Forget it, it was insulting.

It's not worth it.

- Insulting?

- Yes, it disgusts me.

It's disgusting.

Disgusting?

You know what's disgusting, Srgio?

It's the power some people have

to refuse 150,000 euros.

It's the value some people

give to money,

Yes, that's disgusting.

It's dirty money.

And the one you receive?

Huh?

Your salary is clean, maybe?

You know what's disgusting?

It's that people are condemned

by the place where they were born,

without being able to satisfy

their basic needs.

That people like you come here

and turn down 150,000 euros.

Can't you see it's dirty money?

that it comes from the exploitation

of these people you speak of?

And don't you understand

that your salary is dirty?

That your job is dirty?

Do you think the money that comes from the

World Bank and Europe is clean?

We call it "acquit de conscience",

that the rich use to help the poor

the poor, those who have nothing,

those in need of help,

those who don't make it.

And it's a good thing we can't get away with it.

It's good to bring

from abroad

to report on a route

then offer him 150,000 euros,

and that this person has

the power to say no.

So you,

you'd take that money, right?

Is that it?

I don't have the power

to refuse 150,000 euros.

Not yet.

So, tell me,

imagine receiving this money.

What would you do with it?

You have to ask yourself that question.

If you want to go to the Maldives...

Oh, no!

Are you going to buy your mother a house?

No !

Are you going to put your nephews through college?

You're going to give it to an orphanage here.

Because you're going to want to help

after all you've been given.

Isn't that the way it works?

And you'll go home happy

to have helped humanity.

When you get to the bottom,

it's on the right.

- Can I park here?

- Yes, you may.

What's that face?

I've been waiting for you!

Change the air, I'm here.

You know the traffic.

Meet my friend Srgio.

- My mother, Domingas.

- Hello, how are you?

- I'm fine. I'm fine.

- Nice to meet you.

Srgio is puny.

- But he has a beautiful beard.

- Mom, he understands Creole.

I cooked, I made cachupa.

- Good morning, family!

- Hello, family!

Have a seat.

Don't get up, auntie.

- How are you?

- I'm doing fine.

How are things?

You're beautiful!

- Srgio, come and sit here.

- How are you, Uncle?

Look, it's Srgio.

- Who's your guy?

- No, he's my friend.

He's not my boyfriend.

Mom, where does he sit?

Where can I wash my

wash my hands?

To the bathroom.

Take him to wash his hands.

Can you pour me some...

I have a patient here.

He's been ill

sick.

He doesn't eat anything.

He vomits everything he swallows.

We must pray for him to rise.

Let's go.

The bathroom is here.

- Thank you for your time.

- You're very welcome.

I'm on a diet,

but I haven't lost too much weight.

He comes to visit us.

Who's coming to visit us?

Don't get up!

Have a seat.

Are you going to Lisbon?

Are you going?

Are you going to Lisbon?

So do I. Will you take me?

No, we're not taking you.

Do you know Pecixe?

No.

Do you know Biombo?

Biombo?

Uncle!

He's a guest! Srgio is a guest!

Then explain it to him, he'll understand.

Pecixe is the island of the Manjaques.

Is it north?

In the North zone.

And is it very far from here?

No...

It's not far, but it's an island.

He can go with you.

Yes! We'll go to Pecixe together.

I'm falling asleep here.

No, we'll wake you up.

Who wants a beer?

One.

How about a beer? Two, please.

- All of us.

- All of us?

OK.

Everyone.

Let's see if there's enough.

One for each.

Yes, I'll get that for you.

Srgio.

Oh, sorry!

Juice?

- Are you watching your figure?

- I can have lunch now.

Cheers to you all!

Srgio, thank you very much!

Thanks for what?

For the tour!

Diara is here!

Does that suit me?

Only if you wear a tiara.

We're almost like a family.

- We're almost family.

- Family from where?

Diara.

Wake up.

We've arrived.

We've arrived.

Can you make it up the stairs,

or not?

Your hair!

Srgio!

I think I'll be going.

Are you leaving? Why should I?

I'm tired.

Come on in!

- No. No, no, no, no.

- No. Come on.

No.

I'm tired and sleepy.

Didn't you want to know my family?

Didn't you say

you wanted to know everything about me?

Well?

All done.

Family lunch.

What are you doing tomorrow?

Nothing.

I'm going to see Jota.

Maybe he'll stay at my place.

You could come too.

Would you like to?

Yeah.

- Yeah?

- I'd love to.

And I would love

to sit and watch us.

Huh?

I'd love to

to sit and watch us.

Stop.

You've got to be kidding me.

- No, we don't.

- Yes, it is.

No.

- You like f*cking with me, don't you?

- No, I don't like it.

Sometimes, but I'm not kidding.

- Are you serious?

- Yes, I'm serious.

You're being difficult,

my little Marcelina?

Weren't you supposed to be in the bush?

Don't tell anyone you saw me here,

I won't tell anyone you were here.

Hi, there.

- Renato. How do you do?

- Hi, Srgio.

- How are you?

- Yes, I'm fine.

What a wonderful day!

What more do we need, this sunshine?

The famous guilty pleasure.

Guilty pleasure?

I want to be the tooth

And the knife

I want to be the knife

And the wound

In a single red kiss

I curled up in the breeze

I don't rest

That in the storm

I only fall asleep in a hurricane

I am rage

And the vaccine

In search of sin and advice

Space between pain

And comfort

The struggle between light

And the mirror

- Good morning to you!

- Good morning to you.

Can you give us a lift?

We have a job there.

- Take us away.

- Take you away.

All right.

- Keep going.

- Straight on?

- Yes.

- Straight ahead.

We get off here.

- In here?

- Here.

I'll stop here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

- We have an appointment there.

- OKAY, OKAY.

I'm told Atuma is dead.

- Serious?

- Serious.

How sad.

He was buried yesterday.

What happened to him?

I was told he was ill,

he had a stomachache.

Negado took him to hospital

and died there.

- What did he say?

- He puts his hand in the water.

Don't do that.

He's going to knock us over.

- Are you all right? No.

- No. Don't put your hand in the water.

- Can't I?

- Better not.

Crocodile?

There are crocodiles in it.

In the water.

Can I help you?

- Rowing?

- Yes. May I?

Come and sit here.

- No, don't come. Please, sit down.

- He's tired.

- Let him sit down.

- It's fine. It's fine.

Let him sit down.

Let's see how he does.

- You want to row?

- May I?

Row.

Just like that. Are you going to row?

- Row.

- Row.

Row.

Just like that.

Row harder.

- Go ahead.

- Go ahead.

He's tired.

The pirogue continues.

See those people over there?

What's the name of this village?

Here? Djobel.

Where's the committee representative?

Do you know?

- It's not there.

- Not there?

No, but his wife is.

What's the representative's name?

Wife?

- The woman or the man?

- The man.

Baciro.

And his wife?

His wife is Isabel.

Isabel.

Do you speak the same language as Djobel?

They understand our language,

but we don't understand theirs.

Their language is complex.

Are there rice paddies here?

Yes. Over there. Can you see them?

See?

Hello !

How are you?

- How are you?

- Yes, I'm fine.

Is Mr. Baciro in?

No, he's at school.

At school...

Can I go to school?

Wait, I'll phone him.

Isabel.

Can I go and see the tank?

Yes, you can.

Isabel!

How do you get to the other

the other houses?

How do you do it?

Rowing.

At low tide, you can get there on foot.

When it rises, in a canoe.

Was it like that before too?

Before?

Was there a lot of water too?

No.

Were there fewer of them?

Less?

How do you get

to fetch drinking water?

- How do you do it?

- By canoe.

- By canoe?

- We canoe to Djifunco.

Is it far?

Over there... After Elalab.

It takes more than...

40 minutes?

Or more...

- Him, there?

- Bernardete is waiting for him over there.

- Who's she waiting for?

- She is.

- The woman in the dress?

- Yes.

How are you?

Your wife called you

a few times, didn't she?

- Hello and welcome!

- Hello, everyone!

- How are you?

- Yes, I'm fine!

She said that yesterday you went to sell

oysters for 10,000 francs a bag.

She's waiting for you there, sitting down.

- How much did she want me to sell them for?

- 8 000.

She said Teresa

Teresa was going to get spanked.

But what have I done?

Because you raised the price.

Teresa didn't raise the price,

it's the price I gave her.

They say she's just arrived

and she's slashing prices.

They have already bought

three times at 8,000 francs.

And we're not going to lower the price.

Not our problem.

They can buy them for 10,000.

If they don't want to, too bad.

That's all there is to it.

She says she's never bought

oysters at 8,000.

She said 10,000, not 8,000.

Yes, to 10,000.

She's waiting for him.

Odilia, she said she's waiting for you

for you to sell them for 8,000.

Ah, OK.

They say she's waiting for you

to sell them for 8,000.

It's his home.

You can come in.

- Where did you write?

- Olga?

Yes ?

Why did you write so badly?

How's it going?

It's going well.

Hello, kids!

How are you?

- Please answer.

- We're fine.

Really?

It's going well.

- Olga, I brought some things for you.

- You brought things?

- For my children?

- Yes, for my children.

Things...

What's your name?

Don't throw that away.

What's your name?

Srgio.

Srgio.

I'm a friend of Bojan's.

I've heard of you,

but only on the phone.

Yes.

Yes.

How are you?

Good.

- And your family?

- We're fine.

I brought some things for the family.

It's a big bag,

I thought there'd be more stuff.

It's not much. It's good, but it's not much.

Bojan told me he was going to send

a lot of things.

But where's the can

of 25 liters of diesel?

Bojan used to bring you

a 25-liter can of diesel?

Yes. Where is it?

- I didn't bring it.

- Why didn't you?

I'll bring it next time.

That's not what we agreed.

On the phone,

he said he was going to bring

a lot of things. That's not much.

That's not what he said.

That's not good.

I'll phone him.

Olga, I want to talk to you

about something.

About the water pump

which is damaged.

Why is it damaged?

They don't want it,

she's on Ir's turf.

- Ir doesn't want the pump?

- No, they don't.

Ir doesn't want the pump.

And the people?

- They don't want it.

- They don't want it?

And a road that would pass

through the bolanhas?

Near the rice fields.

Would you like some?

For cars and motorcycles.

I don't care

if there's a road or not...

Money is used for other things,

no need to buy food

if you can work. No.

We grow onions and tomatoes.

We have a vegetable garden so we can have everything.

Do you have any bananas?

We have bananas and mangoes,

everything.

Oranges, grapefruits,

tangerines...

We've got it all.

But in town you have to buy everything.

Whether we have a road or not,

I don't care.

Here, you can pick up

oysters and fish.

No need to freeze it.

It's fresh fish from the sea.

We cook it and eat it,

with pilao rice.

But in the city, you have to buy everything.

Even wood.

I cut this wood myself,

but in town, you have to buy it.

Over there, you even have to buy

water to drink, but not here.

The light... You pay rent.

I don't pay rent here, it's mine.

If I'm not dead by the end of the month,

I'm home.

I don't owe anything to anyone.

I rely only on myself.

Srgio.

I've made up a bed for you here.

Here you have rice.

This is the one we picked this year.

This one's from this year too.

Nice.

This rice is from this year.

This one, from last year.

It's from last year.

All the way to the bottom.

It was there all the way.

We ate it all.

That's what's left.

- How about there?

- That's where you go to bed.

I made your bed.

- I made your bed, you can go to sleep.

- Thanks for making it.

You lie there.

- Can I go to bed now?

- Yes, you may.

Make yourself at home.

Thank you.

I'm glad you came.

Rui, what if a road came through here,

in this area, near your...

Your place?

In the past, our parents

had lots of bolanhas.

But now,

with climate change,

the volume of salt water has risen

and salt water has invaded

most of the bolanhas

- of the tabanca.

- She ruined everything.

Exactly.

Our bolanhas, now,

are very small,

than those of our parents.

Young people have fled the tabanca

to study in the city.

Nobody wants to stay.

Only old people stay,

but they don't have the strength to work.

That's why production is declining.

But then, if a road went through here

and if there was a more direct

with...

with your tabanca,

do you think people would stay?

Of course we do.

The problem is that in Guinea-Bissau

everything is in Bissau.

You want a job, you have to go to Bissau,

if you want to study, you have to go to Bissau.

But if the state were to build roads

all over Guinea,

if he set up projects to get young people

young people to work in their tabanca,

I don't think people would leave.

But you don't think that a road

could disrupt or even destroy

the culture and traditions

of tabanca?

Do you think they'd resist?

Roads are part of development

country or tabanca.

Many of our difficulties here,

come from the fact that cars

can't get here.

If someone is ill

or a woman is in labor,

how do they get to the hospital?

There's no transport.

If there were a road,

it would be better for the tabanca.

To get to the city,

all you'd have to do is take a car.

How many people live here?

- In Elalab?

- Yes, in Elalab, more or less.

It depends.

In dry weather, around 400.

In the rainy season, up to 600.

Are there more people

in the rainy season?

- Yes, young people who...

- Coming home?

They left to try

to study in the city.

Who invented this?

Who invented this system?

It's centuries old...

In our grandparents' time.

Tubes weren't like that.

Palm tree trunks were cut.

- Was it like this before?

- Yes, it used to.

Kassumai!

- How are you?

- I'm doing fine.

- Are you well?

- I'm fine.

- Kassumai!

- Kassumai kep!

Are you all right?

I'm looking for the water pump.

Behind Neusa's house,

near the school.

We know where it is. It's that way.

This way?

- Can you take me there?

- Yes, we can.

OK.

Now?

Let's go.

Thank you.

Lus, come back.

Come back here!

Isn't he coming?

No.

Just a moment.

You take away the young

and all that's left are the old.

Isn't he coming?

No.

Why?

Because.

He can't go and show me...

No. You've already taken the adults

and all that's left are the children.

We don't want the road.

I don't get it.

I don't understand djola.

Don't you get it?

He doesn't go with you.

No ?

- I don't think so.

- Why not?

You've taken the young

and all that's left are the old.

And your parents, do they work here?

Yes.

- All your parents?

- Yes, they are.

Who's playing?

Brazil.

Brazil versus Spain.

Like this?

Yes.

I shaved everything, isn't that nice?

- You're bald now.

- I am now.

Yes, yes.

But it looks good on you.

It grows back fast, doesn't it?

Elvis, what do you think?

I'm so sorry.

What could cars

bring you?

What do you think cars

cars could bring here?

What could they bring?

Hello?

Srgio?

Anybody home?

Srgio?

Here, have some water.

Here. Srgio?

Open your mouth.

Here, here.

Open the door.

A little water.

How are you?

Open your mouth. It'll do you good.

Swallow.

Feeling better?

I only saw your message this morning.

Sorry to have taken so long.

Drink a little more.

Easy does it.

Open the door.

I enjoyed doing that.

Thank you.

How did you get in here?

Huh?

It's good.

It's weird, but it's really good.

- Good morning to you.

- Good morning to you.

Can I leave this with you?

Yes, of course.

Someone's coming to pick up

a yellow folder.

All right.

- Thank you for your time.

- You're very welcome.

Excuse me, hello!

Is this boat going to the islands?

Is this boat going to the islands?

Yes.

My friend!

My friend, can you help me?
