"Khadidja!" "Poupou!" "Why did you say I- we were married?" "Hey, you!" "Tell me it's okay!" " It's delicious." " I'm so glad." "It almost picked something up, then pfft!" "It always lets you down just when you want to listen." "But without a radio, you're completely out off here." "At times I miss the city." "But I'm happy here and get to sleep at night." "Do you love him?" "Does he know?" "Does he know who you are?" "Then don't ever tell him!" "With men, you never know what tomorrow will be." "What's up?" " Fatimé, peace be upon you." " Upon you too." "Are you all right?" "When was your last period?" "Dunno." "About two months ago." "Okay?" "Yes." "I never knew my father." "I don't want the same for my kids." "I can't keep it." "I'll be the father of your child and you'll be my wife." "But I'm a whore!" "Do you understand?" "A whore!" "Here, you're a woman just like any other." "Sooner or later, you'll resent me for my past." "Calm down!" "Never mind." "Welcome!" "You are our sister." "We welcome you into our community." "Your presence will swell our numbers." "We thank you for choosing our village." "The baby you are carrying is our joy." "Accept these gifts." "Thanks, thanks." " I'm your princess?" " Yes." " I'm your sunshine?" " Yes." " I'm your life?" " Yes." " You'd do anything for me?" " Yes." "Then say, "Mimi, I love you!"" "Go on!" "Why won't you ever?" "Are you afraid?" "Grigris is great." "He loves kids." "He's so good with them." "If only our men were like him!" "Our men, what a joke!" "He hasn't even got a paunch!" "What's up?" "Can't you sleep?" "I was thinking of my parents." "Don't worry." "It'll be okay." "Grigris!" "Fatimé, have you seen Grigris?" "No." "Is something wrong?" "What are you doing here?" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Fatimé!" "Help!" "Get off him!" "Fatimé!" "Help!" "Fatimé!" "Get off him!" "Women!" "Attack!" "Women!" "Help!" "Come quick, everyone!" "Let him go!" "Back off!" "This has nothing to do with you!" "Go back to your own business!" "Back off!" "Are you going to let him go or not?" " Leave him alone!" " Mind your own business!" "Leave him now." "It's our secret." "Till the grave."
