"The boss wants to see you." "Come on." "Belgrade, Special Court for War Crimes" "Get in." " Have a seat, Dusan." " Thank you." "How is the Professor?" "He's doing fine." "Living his retirement days." "How about you?" "Do you like working here?" "Is everything ok?" "Of course it is." "However, how should I put this?" "Up to now,I haven't got the chance to work on something... real." "Oh,you want some serious stuff?" "Of course." "Okay, Dusan." "Here." "Check this file." "They say,the case is closed." "I say,it's not." "Get all the facts." "Take a couple of days off." "This case needs a fresh approach." "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Am I speaking too fast, or you want to take a leak?" " What's wrong?" " Nothing." "Thank you." "Send my regards to Professor." "Your father is a great man." "I can see the same potential in you." "People say you're here just because of your father." "That some one pulled a few strings to get you in." "That's all bullshit." "Do you have a Tylenol?" " Excuse me?" " Tylenol." "For a headache." " No." " Then, just say'No'and scram." "Have a nice day." "If you'd went to bed a bit earlier..." "maybe you wouldn't be late for work." "Turn off the light, your wife can't sleep." "What?" "You've got a problem?" "If you need a bathroom, go ahead." "Your prostate will fail in a couple of years." "It runs in the family." "You won't be spared,don't worry." "Yes?" "Oh, it's you?" "Why won't you answer the door?" " I'm sorry,I didn't know it was you." " Fuck." " Good morning." " I'm out of shape." "Nouse,I'm getting old." " How do you like this place?" " It's great." "Only Spikey and I know about this apartment." "It needs some cleaning, though." "You'll have to do it yourself." "Bring some clothes." "Not a word about this to your wife." " Is that clear?" " Yes, sir." "I have two failed marriages because of this job." "No children." "Take care of your wife, kid." "A man without a woman is nothing." "When this phone rings, that can only be me." "It's the only safe line." "Not a word about our job over the cellphone." " Is that clear?" " Yes, sir." "It works." "There... a bit complicated, but that comes with the territory." "If anyone asks about the apartment, say that you bought it." "Don't worry, I'll take care of it all." "I know that you'd like to do it all, that's why I'm telling you this." "Don't do it all at once, don't get so fired up." "Don't make it look like you're working on a case." "Take it easy." "Routine, kid." "Routine is the key." "Oh,I almost forgot." "Car keys." "There is a blue Nissan, right across the street." "Thank you, sir." "Listen..." "I've been..." "You've been fired?" "I knew it!" "I've been given a case." " A case?" " Yes." "Dule..." "I believe you." "You're there for a year now." "It was about time for you to investigate." "What are you doing?" "Investigating." " Don't." " Why not?" " He'll go to the bathroom now." " No, he won't." "He was there two minutes ago." " He'll go now, you'll see." " No, he won't." " Yes, he will." " No, he won't." " Where did you find brandy?" " I just found it." "Where?" " What's going on?" " Nothing." "Nothing?" "First brandy, now this." "Something must be going on." "What could it be?" " Who gave you the name Jadranka?" " My uncle." "A fool." "Good morning." "One Tylenol, please." "They can't print in the papers whatever they want." "Of course." "We'll check out who is behind the story." "Yes, I'll contact Grujic." "Then, we will..." "We'll have to show them who they are dealing with." "Yes..." "Okay, boss." "Bye." "Spikey, go to Grujic." "Tell him to be here in an hour." "Good morning, Ilic." " You've got no Tylenol, right?" " I got it." "You're bullshitting?" "Good job, kid." " Give it to me." " Here." "I'll take two, then we'll talk." "Keep the bottle." "Okay, shoot." "What now?" "What's with this standing?" "Sit down, kid." "Sit." "I'll begin with some general impressions." "It is clear that the so-called First Pioneer unit, was formed right after the war in Croatia broke out." "It operated in other areas during the conflict in the former Yugoslavia." "It is a typical paramilitary unit comprised out of young men." "Some of them were just kids when they joined the unit." "The commanding officer was Milenko"Firefly"Drca." "He was killed here, in Belgrade." "After his death, the unit continued to operate." "They were sent to Kosovo and got killed." "What do you make out of it?" "I believe that someone killed them all." "I'd like to give you my radical theory,if I may." "I just love radical theories." "The surviving unit members were sent to Kosovo and executed, I believe." "Executed by our own?" " I don't know." " Of course you don't!" "Is there something you do know?" "There was a positive ID on all the bodies." "Except one." "Sredoje Govorusa, nicknamed"Blackbird"." "The body was incinerated." "There was no positive ID." "Bullshit." "They found his army ID card, personal belongings." "Therefore, that was him." "Yes, but there is no DNA identity confirmation." "This is the report." "Hold on." "They were all found in the yard, bullet-riddled." "With all due respect,Sredo Govorusa was found in the house." "So what?" "The house was burnt down, and he was inside." "May be he burnt it himself." "Just at heory." "You've got no proof." "If there's the slightest chance that Sredo Govorusa is alive, we have to find him, arrest him and bring him to court." "No signs of activity?" "No." "He's cunning." "He's not going out." "Who's watching him?" "I assigned Mr. Blue and his team." "That's a good choice." "Come in, I'm busy!" "You came to bust me?" "What's up, Mr. Chief Prosecutor?" "Long time no see!" "I'm sorry, my hands are greasy." "Hello, my friend." "Not a word from you, since you've taken a step up." "Everybody forgot about me." "We've been working, my friend." "Day and night." "So I heard." "I hear everything." "My, my, Mr. Prosecutor..." "It's good that you came to me." "When I heard that you got the job, I said, they found the perfect man for it." "They know that." " Who's your driver?" " Spikey Branko." "He's from Serb Krajina..." "great guy." "You can't go around without trusted and loyal men." "No, my friend." "One man alone is a sitting duck." "Who put a pressure on you?" "Is it our scum,or the scum from abroad?" "You know who." "I told them, it's an old case, closed long time ago, leave me alone, I've got better things to do." "That's what I keep telling you, my friend." "They won't stop before they take everything, and skin us alive!" "Before they divide us all." "I couldn't allow that." "My people, my country, that's the priority for me." "And that's the truth." "Relax, they can say whatever they want." "You're clear." "Typical wedding ring." "Cheap." "This type... it used to be popular." "People bought this... just a second." "Yes." "Number 14... that's the size." "A small wedding ring for women." "That's all." " What about the period?" " Some time after World War 2." " I'd say 1960 s,maybe late 1950s." " Thank you." " Bon appetite." " Thank you." "I might be retired, but I'm not totally demented." "So finally,he gave you a case." "Which one?" "What can I say?" "You already know everything." "Your boss... be careful." "I've known this man for 30 years." "An ordinary man... very ordinary." "But shrewd, canny, clever." "He follows his instincts." "He gambles." "Can leat now?" "Okay." "Micun..." "What, Jadranka?" "Are you alright?" "I'm pregnant." "Jadranka..." " Hello." " Hello." "I'm Irena Ilic, I have an appointment with doctor Antic." "Sir, wait here, please." "And you, follow me, please." "Good morning!" "Did she call us?" "No." "We'll be here all day." " Where have you been?" " What?" "Done, already?" "They scheduled the ultrasound for tomorrow." "What's that thing?" " What thing?" " That, under the coat." "Nothing." "Is that a gun?" "Irena, please, don't make a scene here, on the street." " Why do you carry a gun?" " Everything's fine." "Get in." " Fine?" "!" " Just relax, Irena." "Good evening." "What is it?" " Sorry for calling you at this hour." " Don't apologize." "Goon." "I think I'm being followed." "You?" "Come on, you're just being paranoid." "Go home to your wife." "Relax a little." " Anything else?" " Our man, Govorusa." "A wedding ring was found beside his body." "I believe it's his mother's ring." "His mother's name was Zora, and her maiden name was Duvnjak." "She was killed in their family house and the house was burnt down." "I believe that he was very attached to his mother." "I would check it out, if you don't mind." "Just do it, you don't have to ask me." " Okay, bye." " Wait..." "I can't stand this place anymore." "Each morning, you put on your shirt, go out and don't come back." "And I'm coming back to your dad." "You said we should live here after Mom died." "What else could we do?" "He was not feeling well." "He's alright now, we should move out." " What?" "To go rental?" " Yes." "Hassle with the landladies?" "I don't have time for that." "Don't touc hme." " No..." " Wait, wait." "We'll rent an apartment." "I'll find one." " You will find an apartment?" " I promise." " Excuse me,do you have a light?" " No." " Excuse me,do you have a light?" " Yes, I do." "Thanks." "I'll give it right back to you." "Can you run a check on this license plate?" "BG... 010..." "FE..." "Are you okay?" "Come on, you I'll take to the hospital!" "I'm going straight to the ER." "We're on our way." "Mother fuckers... are you okay?" " I can't believe..." " The bastard missed." " Slow down." "Slow down!" " What?" " Okay, I'm slowing down." " You came to kill me, too?" "!" " No, I was just passing by." " Who sent you?" "!" " Nobody sent me, really." " You scum, I'll kill you!" " Nobody sent me!" " Slow down!" "Easy now... easy." "Just drive." "Don't stop, just go." " Now, go ahead." "Drive!" " Okay." "Look, this is a company gun." "I was just passing by." "Shut up!" "Don't crash the car or I'll put a hole through your belly!" "Do you have a first aid kit?" "I don't know." "These days nobody carries a first aid kit." "Whose car is this?" " Is this your car?" " It's a company car." "What company?" " Small business." " Really?" "And the boss gave you the gun and the car?" "He must be a very nice man, surely he runs a legit business!" "Fuck... just drive." " Where to?" " Just drive." "Look..." "I've got a small place, two blocks from here,vacant." "There's water there, and a couch, everything." "Drive there." "If you're lying to me, I'll shoot you straight." "I know you from somewhere." "Give me the car keys." " You're Samardzic?" " Yes." "SAMARDZIC" "Sideways." "Do you have brandy?" "Who are you?" "I've asked you something?" "My name is Dusan." "Dusan Samardzic." "Samardzic?" "Really?" "What's all this?" "You're doing this for the company?" " No, I'm doing it on my own." " Like a hobby?" "Something like that." "How would you call this hobby of yours?" " Investigative journalism." " A reporter?" "You've got a lot of material here." "I'm writing a book." "A book?" "What about?" "About those people, about the war." "Who are these... people?" "Do you know where they come from?" "Why did they go to war?" "Are they good, or bad people?" "Some of them are good, some are bad." "My book..." "I'm writing a book." "You're lying." ""Office of the War Crimes Prosecutor"." ""Deputy War Crimes Prosecutor, Dusan Ilic"." "Who's this?" "That's me." "There, you see... you lied." "I lied." " Micun Duvnjak?" " Yes." "What do you think?" "Is that my real name?" " It's not." " Correct." "Now, why did I lie?" " Because you're hiding." " Right." "How about you?" "Why did you lie?" " I'm afraid." " Afraid?" "Okay." "Fear can push a man into a lie." "What were you afraid of?" "That you'd kill me." "You've lied in order to survive." "To go on living?" "There... you see?" "That's why I lie,as well." "To survive." "Which one are you looking for?" "Point at him." "This one." " This one?" " Yes." "Why?" "What did he do?" "Hekilled." "He burnt women and children." "What kind of man is that?" "To shoot women and children?" "To burnd own their houses?" "I don't know." "You tell me." "I don't know." "I really don't." "Are you afraid now?" "Yes, I am."

"Your wife got special treatment." "I can't remember when." "You asked for a lighter, you've never given it back." "I can't remember." "I remember." "I remember everything." "Take the gun... take it!" " Did you shoot him?" " Yeah, but he's still alive." "Out of nowhere, someone tried to run me over with a car." "I fired a couple of shots at him and ran away." "What else?" "There's no way he'll live until tomorrow, I shot him in the stomach." "You didn't finish him off?" "How could I?" "Don't you hear what I'm saying?" "Okay, no problem." "Have a seat." "Turn on the TV." " Do you want something to drink?" " Scotch, if you have some." "Fucking son of a bitch!" "Cheers." "Watch this." "This week, we have a jackpot of 300000 Euros... or 1019415 combinations." "What are you looking at?" "I know who I am." "The commander tells you, 'Sredoje,go and waste those people.

" We cannot stop now!" "Who said that we will stop?" "You will stop." "Ilic,listen to me carefully." "Go home,take your wife and then go on a vacation." "You've done your job." "It's over."

"But,truth is stranger than fiction." "Look..." "For all the things you've done, you have to answer." "But I need your story and your statement,to catch the big fish." "If you tell me the story I'd like to hear, you and your wife go in the witness protection program." "There is no way Hunchback and all of his killers will find you." "But I want to hear the whole story." "And I want to hear everything, to the very end." "All the chapters." "If necessary, you appear at the court and repeat the whole story." "You're the only one who can send him to jail." "He took care of everybody else in this country." "He killed the ones he wanted to kill." "He tricked, or bribed others."
