"Shipping him back to New York?" "Pit stop at HQ first." "We can't leave it up to your examiner." "It's touchy." "He's American, and fbi." "I don't want the fbi on my case." "It's not up to us." "Hard enough investigating out here." "We're not used to dealing with the American police." "If you say so." "Plane on time?" "Late, as usual." "Hope it didn't crash." "You never know, with spirits around." "Come on." "It's not your fault." "All the more reason to stay objective and find who did this." "Tell me what to do." "I'm dangerous." "I'm jinxed." "Don't be silly." "You're not angry?" "About what?" "Another examiner checking your work." "I didn't miss anything." " lt's not a competition." " No, it's not." "So, we could say... the same murderer killed the Jew and the Indian." ""Murderer" implies a human being." "I'd say the same creature, or species." "Right..." "A creature." "Want to go home?" "Life is so fragile." "Abraham would be alive if we hadn't met at the seminar." "It's the Celestine Prophecy." "Did you read that book?" "Nothing happens without a reason." "Strange literary taste for a seasoned cop." "Seasoned is a big word." "Gotta hang on to something." "No one else will risk taking this case." "That's understandable." "It's touchy, for political reasons." "And because we're invading Indian territory." "Someone doesn't want white people here." "Who's that?" "The spirit of the forest?" "Let's not lose our marbles." "It's not our first bizarre case." "We're never duped by appearances." "No reason to start now." "For one good reason..." "He died for a reason." "He could've told us what's going on." "I'm sure Abraham found something out." "If we're to leave here alive, I have to talk to the Windigo." "Great." "Re-open your case?" "Forget it. impossible." " Why?" " There's nothing to justify it." "Why not ask your lawyer?" "You're highly respected." "Not interested." "Liar." "You wouldn't be here." "You're crazy." "You saw the SAS crew... I read the paper." "Scary creatures in the woods..." "Pretty dangerous." "What do you want?" "Listen carefully." "This is for your ears only." "Fortier doesn't realize the danger she's in." "How would you know?" "Why should I care?" "You're the D.A." "You want to make a deal?" "You're quick." "Prove you're telling the truth, then I'll see if I feel like it." "Welcome to Mike's place." "My condolences." "The other doctor left?" " Abraham?" " He's a friend of yours?" "His body is gone." "Anything to tell me?" "Talking with white people is too complicated." " Why?" " We always get the blame." "We're not looking for a scapegoat." "So, you're not guilty?" "Why all the cops?" "It's a big deal, isn't it?" "We have our own cops." "You're wondering why the SAS is here." "Yeah." "Most cops don't want to meet the Windigo." "I'm not afraid to talk to it." "I understand, but it doesn't help." " lt's the truth." " Your truth." "Can you think of a more mundane explanation?" "A quarrel, maybe?" "Think hard." "I told you what I know." "We're on your side." "The Windigo is angry." "Someone disturbed it in its sleep." "Give the case to Dufresne." " Priority?" " Yes." "Anything else?" "Two messages I don't understand." " For who?" " Dr. Fortier." "A lady who said she was in for prostitution." " Gertrude?" "That's her." "I used her photo to track down her number in our files." "I told her we have other things to do." " What did she want?" " To see Dr. Fortier." "File it in the trash." "Anything else?" "Mr. Fontaine." " About what?" " Tetreault." " Are you there?" " Fine... I'll call him back." "Bye." "Who was that?" " Rolande." " About?" "I thought I was giving the orders." "I got through." "The Indians accept me." "That's great." "I think we should split up." "We need everyone." "The guys should stay here." "I'm not sending anyone home." "I meant two teams:" "You and me for the Indians, the guys for the loggers." "I've nothing against it." "You think the murderer's with the Indians." "That's why you said yes." "Got you..." "The murderer must be with the Indians." "The Windigo can't be White." "I can't imagine retiring." "No one can." "You just do, one day." " Gonna miss us?" " l'll come back to visit." " You'll miss the investigations?" " Yeah, right." "Thanks to this one, I'll end up with West Nile." "Better than the forest monster getting you." "I was wondering when you'd show up." "Expecting us?" "After our last conversation..." "He says he's not too popular around here." "They way he cuts down trees... lt's not about trees." "Clearcutting really bugs me." "Hold on a sec." "Who cares about trees?" "Trees are the lungs of our planet." "You're not the brains of our squad." "It'll throw him off balance." "I'll do the talking." "If you screw up, you'll be sorry." "I want no problems on my last investigation." "Don't worry." "You don't mind destroying a beautiful region?" "Answer him." "Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" "Come in." "I know who you are." "Can I ask you a few questions?" "Right now?" "If possible." "I'm preparing Mike's funeral." "Aren't they Catholic?" "I thought..." "The Atikamekws are Catholic, but they still practice their rites." " How can I help you?" " l'm not sure." "Two people have died." "It wasn't a bear." "There are other wild animals." "I'm interested in the animals that live nearby." " Nearby?" " Around here." "In the village, perhaps?" " Have someone in mind?" " Do you?" "I can't break the confessional seal." "Was I asking you to?" "We hear so many things." "We can't..." "Too bad..." "Just the things that interest me." "There's tension between the Atikamekws and the loggers." "That's nothing new." "What are you after?" "Tension between a certain Indian and a certain logger?" "Hatred that could lead to murder?" "I'd be surprised." "Didn't know you were still there." "Come in." "You're lying." "Me?" "You don't believe in the Windigo." "I do." " That's impossible." " No it's not." "If we mean the same thing." "I knew it." "There's two versions of the Windigo:" "The forest spirit, and the others." "What others?" "The ones the Windigo transforms into beasts." "Can I call you Sagash?" "Teach me to talk to the spirit, and I'll protect you from men who turn into beasts." "I was wrong to count on women's solidarity." "Sagash's roots and her family were more important than her gender." "I realized that too late." "ABUSE OF confidence" "See you tonight?" "Promise?" "The priest's waiting for us." "I'm coming." "He wanted to see me." "Stay away from there." "I know what to do." "Do you know who he is?" "I'm the one who put him away." "It's only because of Fortier that he's not in for 25." "You'd never have gotten that." "You're so stubborn, his lawyer would've got him off." "Stupid idiot!" "Damn it!" "I'll call you back." "I have to fill out a report." "I just had an accident." "Are you hurt?" "Only my pride." "I'll call you back." "Just tell me what he wanted." "I'll call you back." "The priest's lying." "This is it." "It's all trampled." "So what?" "Someone or something's been here." "A moose?" "Never seen moose here." "I'd be surprised." "They're usually around lakes." "You're trying to help us, right?" "You might find something if you look." "This isn't the city." "It takes technicians to analyze every branch." "You asked if I'd seen anything strange." "I guess you don't care." "Anything else?" "Can't think of anything." "Thanks." "What were you thinking about?" "I can't tell you." "Why not?" "It's personal." "It's him..." "Abraham?" "Yeah." "I was figuring out if I've saved more lives than I've destroyed." "The answer's obvious." "Not that obvious." "It's because of that nut." "Etienne told me." " Nut?" " Tetreault." "He won't give up until he gets the upper hand." "I know it, the guys know it, everyone knows it." "Get him out of your head." "It's not that easy." "Neither the girls' deaths nor Abraham's were your fault." "Try as we might, we can't always avoid the worst." " Comes with the territory." " You don't get it." "My past is a burden, but I'm more afraid of my future." "Being obsessed with avoiding the worst compels you to take risks." "You even end up liking it." "That's my problem." "I want to find solutions at all cost, endangering my own life if I have to." "By doing so, I endanger the people I care about." "I'm a danger to my colleagues." "Nothing." " Checked everything?" " Yeah..." "Richer's record is suspiciously clean." "What's suspicious about being honest?" "Not a single demerit point." "Good for him." "Mayrand's right." "Keep looking." "Two pounds..." "You can catch two-pound trout around here." "Did Fortier come in the back door?" "She was outside five minutes ago." "Not anymore." "Let's get her back here." "Have you seen my gun?" "Stay here." " l want to come." " You're staying." "Did you find it?" " ln the house?" " l already looked." " What's he looking for?" " His gun." "Losing your gun is serious." "Don't worry, we'll cover for you." "Jean-Marie, that way." "Mayrand, the other way." "You come with me." "I can go alone." "I don't need you." "I don't have my gun!" "Why me?" "You of all people should know I didn't kill Mike." "I don't want to talk to you." "I've always been nice to you." "Where's Jim?" " Why?" " l gotta talk to him." " Don't know." " l don't believe you." "I don't know." "What do I have to do to make you listen?" "Your bracelet... lt has to fall off by itself." "Don't forget that." "You treat me like dirt, but I know your traditions." " No, you don't." " Yes, I do." "If you did, you'd leave before the Windigo gets you." "Have you seen Dr. Fortier?" "I saw her talking to Sagash." " When?" " An hour or two ago." "Where can we find her?" "At the bar." "Does splitting wood make you feel better?" "Need more firewood?" "With this heat?" "About half a kilometer..." "I must be close." "Why'd the guys take down the markers?" "What am I saying?" "Someone else did this." "I told your wife what I knew." "My wife?" "She's not your wife?" "It's the way you act together." "Seen her?" " Who?" " My wife." "We spoke earlier." "She wanted to talk to the Windigo." "She wanted to talk to the forest spirit." "We said we might meet, tonight." "You have to go in the forest." "The Windigo never comes here." "Come here." "Not leaving on our account?" "I was looking for someone." "He's not here." "I'm going home." "For who?" "Who?" "Who were you looking for?" "Daniel Richer, the logger." "For?" "He asked me something." "I had his answer." "It's urgent?" "Not necessarily." "Let's go to confession, shall we, Father?" "Come on, Windigo." "I'm waiting for you." "I'm not afraid of spirits." "I'm more afraid of humans." "Spirits are brave." "Humans are cowardly." "Cowardly and dangerous." "I know you're here." "Show yourself." "Come and talk to me." "Show yourself or I'll shoot." "There was no need to scare me." "Don't walk in woods you don't know, at night." " Why are you here?" " To find you." " Why?" " Scratchy's looking for you." "That's not funny." "We're up to two victims." "That's not funny, but you are." "You talk to spirits from within, not by making noise." "I understand." "Not sure you do." "You have to believe in spirits to talk to them." "That's right." " And then?" " You have to listen." " l heard nothing." " You didn't listen." "Pride stops you from listening." "They're talking all around you." "The sound echoes inside you like a tom-tom." "Sometimes, it's like a roar." "In your head?" "Of the one talking to the spirits." "Can spirits tell us what to do?" "Always." "Even things we don't want to do?" "Yes." "How can you stand it when they're too loud to ignore and they say things you don't want to do?" "No answer?" "Why?" "It's not the case." "But you're wrong." "I heard the spirits." "I heard the spirits of the forest." "Then you would've felt me coming." "Want me to prove it?" "They said to protect Sagash." "That there's danger around her and you knew it." "See?" "If the spirits were speaking, you'd have felt me coming." "Damn flies!" "Anne, it's me!" "Jean-Marie!" "Nice funeral." "The Indians are pleased." "What do you want?" "Have you seen Fortin?" "Why?" "He told me he was coming here." "Our report still has a few blanks." "I haven't seen him." "How's it going?" "What?" "With the city cops?" " Fine." " Really?" "Should it be going badly?" "I've been covering this region for years." "I know everyone." "Every blade of grass, each branch." "Everyone's weakness... whether they're White or Indian." "I don't mind the SAS doing our job, but we don't want to look stupid." "Get it?" "I'm just a priest here." "Yeah, just a priest." "Who are you?" "Identify yourself!" "Police." "Mayrand, SAS." " We're looking for Fortier." " The shrink?" "Have you seen her?" "You shouldn't be in the woods so late." "Why's that?" "Aren't two bodies enough?" " What are you doing here?" " My job." "This is my beat." "I'll bring her in if I see her." "Damn flies." "Damn it." "Talk to the girl?" "I didn't talk to Richer, either." "Why is she suspicious?" "She said I knew there was danger around you." "I didn't say anything." "Mike's dead." "We're not talking to Whites anymore." "You don't have to tell me that." "Mike was my brother, not yours." "Alain was trembling when they questioned him." "He's the one who'll talk, not me." "You were here." " l must've fallen asleep." " Fallen asleep..." "Great place for a nap." "I often come to the crime scene to think." "You could've told us before you left." "We looked everywhere." "What did I tell you?" "The others?" "They're around." "Are you hurt?" "It's my ears." "I feel a bit dizzy." "That's all we need." "It's a bit remote here for Hindus." "The Indians are enough to deal with." "Columbus was wrong about that..." "Who cares about Columbus?" "We had an agreement." "Not here, Jim." "Not in the chapel." "Stop, you're hurting me." "Did you say anything?" "I kept my mouth shut." "It's not that bad." "It's a sin." "Human weakness..." "It's not so bad." "Two deaths isn't bad?" "I won't let them lay the rap on me." "That won't happen." "How far can sinning go?" "Richer's company destroys our forest." "They'll accuse one of us, not him." "Have faith in the justice of men." "Like I had faith in your God?" "My God forgives." "White people." "You don't want the police to know about your war with Mike." "You didn't like his camaraderie with Richer." "It's a form of psychosis." "Like we're used to?" "The form is different, but the problem is the same." "The Windigo's an Indian who feels attacked by spirits and turns cannibal." " Jim?" " He has a weak personality." "And he didn't eat you." "He can't be the cannibal." "He didn't touch you." "He even gave you a blanket." "The usual alibis don't always work if someone's mentally ill." "Maybe I had enough time to reach out to him." "Maybe Abraham didn't." "Don't forget, his first victim was Indian." "The girl's brother." "I'm sure Sagash knows more than she says, and so does Jim." "Where were you?" " We thought you were back." " l was still looking." " Where were you?" " Looking for you." "I met up with Fortin, the local cop." "I followed him." " Why?" " To see." "He cut through the woods, then drove off." " Why did you..." " l don't like the look of him." "It's no reason to follow him." " Jean-Marie?" " What about him?" "He was with you." "We split up to search." "You knew that." "What is it?" "I spoke to the priest." "I wanted him to know we're not stupid." "I saw the tall SAS guy." "He's looking for the shrink." "I pretended not to notice he was following me." "Any news from HQ?" "A bear. lt's as simple as that." "Dufour!" "Where are you?" "Jean-Marie!" "Don't worry, we'll find him." "Supervisor, English content:" "Stephanie Jones" "Translation:" "Andrea Szakos"
