"It's going to rain." "The flies are biting." "Come on." "It's time." "It's already raining down there." "This conversation is too one-sided, Kiril." "It smells of rain." "Thunder always gives me a jolt." "I fear they've begun shooting here, too." "Go, go, Ninja Turtle!" "Kill him!" "Take it easy, kid..." "Time never dies." "The circle is never round." "Like you Kiril, I wanted to take a vow of silence." "But this heavenly beauty merits words." "Bullets!" "Run!" "God help us!" "And may God hear us." "Sshhh!" "Don't hit me, please." "Don't give me away." "Speak to me." "Are you mute?" "You don't speak Albanian." "I don't speak Macedonian." "What are you doing here, son?" "A midnight stroll?" "All right, I need a piss, too." "Come on, Kiril." "What are you doing there?" "I haven't got all night." "My name is Zamira." "You are a good person." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Welcome." "Thank you..." "Father." "Well, Mitre?" "We're looking for an Albanian girl." "She killed my brother." " God rest his soul." " God rest his soul." "The children have said that she's hiding somewhere in the monastery." "We've only had refugees from Bosnia." "Moslems." "We're all equal in God's eyes." "And five centuries of Moslem rule?" "Father... you're one of us." "Give us the Albanian girl." "In my monastery, there's no girl." " We'll search it." " No." "We must!" "An eye for an eye!" "Bad blood." "Turn the other cheek." "Enough of that." "Wait outside." " Has anyone seen her?" " No, Father." "I just want to know if she's here." "We would have told you at once, Father." "Kitty, kitty..." "Kitty, kitty..." "No one?" "Father Kiril, have you seen the girl in the monastery?" "We would have told you, it's a sin." "So, she's not near us, is she, Father Kiril?" "Welcome." " God sees everything." " Forgive us, Father." " Might is right." " We wont do anything to you." "But when we find her, she'll be sorry." "Well?" "She's not downstairs." " What's upstairs?" " Father's Kiril cell." "Come on, Father." "You shouldn't do this, Mitre." "For your own good, Father." "Come on." "Stojan, make sure no one to leaves." "There's nothing here, children." "You commit a sin." "An eye for an eye." "Albanian whore!" "Stojan, under the bed." "We'll find her, even if she hides in America." "I fuck all the Albanians!" "So you're hiding a Moslem in God's house." "Speak." "Kiril hasn't spoken for two years." "He took a vow of silence." "Mute?" "Deaf, too?" "I'll fuck her Albanian mother, too." "You, animal!" "I'll wait for you outside." " I win, pay up." " Give me some brandy." " Let's get his gun." " He's crazy, he'll shoot you." " Can I hold it?" " Here." "Run!" "Run!" ""Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death..." "I will fear no evil." "For thou art with me."" "Shame on you!" "Deny thy father." "Give up thy name." "Good luck to you both." "Thank you, Father." "Forgive me." "Kitty, kitty..." "Shoot, cousin!" "Shoot!" "We'll go to my brother in Skopje..." "He will help us." "After... we'll go to my uncle in London." "He's a famous photographer." "I don't understand you." "No one will find you." "No one." "You don't understand me, do you?" "No one." "Grandpa!" "Where were you yesterday?" "Answer me, you slut!" "Where were you yesterday?" "Did you go to the sheepfold again?" "Did you kill the shepherd?" "Answer me." "Did you kill him?" "What the hell were you doing here?" "Blood calls for blood now." "Did you forget what I told you?" "Ah?" "I never hit you." "Never." "I locked you up in the house." "I cut your hair." "Should I shave it off?" "Who is he?" "Who is he?" "He saved me, Grandpa." "He saved me." "Did he, you bitch?" "Whore!" "Slut!" "He loves me." "He loves me." "He loves you?" "He loves me." "He loves you, eh?" "Let's see." "Let him go." "Let him go!" "Run!" "Clear off!" "Clear off!" "Run!" "Don't." "Don't!" "Sister, no!" "Forgive me." " All right, lover." " Ian, I wished you wouldn't do that." "Yeah, I wish..." "Just think..." "Someone out there right now." "Shagging." "Shit!" "Hello?" "Hi, Dr. Perry." "I'm what?" "No, I didn't." "Yes, I will." "He'll be thrilled." "Yes, I will." "Thank you." "Bye." "Fuck..." "Everyone alive?" " Hey, you're back." "How was it?" " Sticky." " Alex, wait!" "We've got messages." " Throw them." "I'll be back around 2-ish, ok?" "I thought you'd call me yesterday." "I left a message at your flat." "Nick didn't tell me." "Perhaps because you haven't been home in over a week?" " You always do this to me." " I only want you to be happy, darling." "Well, I'm trying." "I just wish you don't worry so much about me." "I can't help that I'm your mother." "That's what mothers are for after all." "I don't have a real job." " Perhaps you should get one." " Don't be silly." "Nick is your husband." "Does consciousness stuff make cows of us all?" " He's good for you." " I know." "I'm seeing him tonight." "Oh, good." "Anne..!" "Hard rain's gonna fall." "Alex..." "What are you doing here?" "Alex in... is in Bosnia..." "supposed to be in Bosnia..." "I'm sorry..." "This is Aleksander Kirkov..." "My mother..." "Very pleased to meet you." "Aleksander is a photographer with the agency." "He's the..." "He's the one who won the Pulitzer Prize last month." "How nice for you." "Well... no problem is so remittable that you can't just walk away from it." " What about lunch?" " You eat with Mr. Kirkov." "It was a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Kirkov." "Congratulations again on your award." "Bye, bye, darling." "You bastard..." "I keep having this dream since you left." "There are palm trees growing in Oxford St." "So, what happened in Bosnia?" "Why are you back?" "I'm free." "I resigned this morning." "Oh, yeah?" "So you just resigned from taking photographs, honey?" "Let's fuck." " You'd be serious, Alex." " I'm serious." "You were born to be a photographer." "You can't do anything else." "That's true, I'm a bum." "I coulda been a pretender." "I'll write a book..." "Zen and the Art of Tomato Growing." " You'll wash and cook for me." " No, I wont." "I'll teach you Macedonian." "Go fuck yourself." "I love you." "Motherfucker." "We'll have twelve children..." " Macedonia isn't safe." " But of course it is." "It's the place where the Byzantines captured 14.000 Macedonians..." "They poked their eyes out..." "and sent them home like that." "28.000 eyes..." "You have a contract with the agency." " For fuck's sake." " Alex, don't utter..." "You know, it's important to take sides." "Take sides?" "I don't want to be on the same side with any of them." "Brainless mongoloids!" "Don't worry about my hand!" "I meant to take sides against war, stupid." "Like it matters?" "Romania, huh?" "El Salvador, Azerbaijan, Belfast, Angola..." "Bosnia..." "Shit." "Peace is an exception." "That's the rule." "Drop it all." "Let's move to Macedonia." " You are really serious, aren't you?" " Like death." "I want a baby." "I'll change." "You already have." "Look at your face." "What happened to you?" "I learned." "I aged." "In two weeks?" " I fucked up." " How?" "Alex." "What happened to you?" "What did they do to you out there?" "I killed..." "I killed..." "Excuse me." "Is this cab free?" "How much?" "Mrs. Wentworth..." "London-Amsterdam, 5:30 tonight." "Amsterdam-Skopje, Macedonia, tomorrow morning." "Alex..." "Alex, I can't come with you tonight." "I have to be here." "Please..." "Try understand..." "My balls ache to go home." "Like the elephants." "Or is it real, what is it?" "Be patient with me." "Please..." "Have a good life." "Don't forget to write." "Take sides." "You wanted a showbiz joint, so you got Madonna." "I mean, she's pretty important, isn't she?" "Well... personally I agree with you, but..." "How do you mean more immediate?" "I mean, she's practically on top of you in those photographs." "I see.. well..." "No, I must've misunderstood you." "Fine, well, I'm sorry about that." "I'll have another look." "No." "I'm sorry..." "Fine." "Bye." "Yes?" "Anne, I've someone calling for Aleksander." "Aleksander left." "He've been trying a week." "All right, put him through." "Hello?" "Yes?" "I want to speak to Aleksander Kirkov." "I'm sorry, but he's gone away." "Would you like to leave a message?" "No message today." "Thank you." "Where are you calling from?" "Macedonia calling." "Thank you." "Heathrow." " Hello." " Nick." "Hello you." "Hello." "How are you?" " Fine." " Good." "I'm not." "I need a drink." "Waiter..." " Not bad, and you?" " Killing myself here." "I really am sorry about what happened." "I was upset." " No, I'm sorry." "It's me." "Good evening." "Would you like anything to drink?" "No, thank you." "I'll just look at the wine list." "I spoke to your mom today." "She said you had something to tell me." "Typical..." "Yes..." "I'm pregnant." "That's wonderful." "Is it..." "Is it mine?" "Yes." "Oh, Annie..." "No problem." "Do you need money?" " Let's get in some champagne..." " No, Nick, I shouldn't drink." "A bottle of champagne, please." "Bollinger, Moet, whatever... thank you." "Tell me all about it, come on." "Nick, I want to leave." "I've just ordered some champagne." " That's not what I meant." " Listen to me." " Listen to me." "Is everything okay this time?" "Listen, you must take things easy." "Money, take it..." "Let me take care of you." "It's all I want do to." " What did Dr. Perry say?" " Yes... fine." "Nick..." "Tell that cunt over there to come..." "Here's to us, and to our baby." "It's a new beginning, a reason to start again." "We can move back to Oxford if you'd like." "Nick, I'd like to explain." "George, I think it would be best if you left the restaurant, as quickly as possible." " And don't come back." " Sir?" "I didn't do anything." "I'm sorry, George." "And make sure your friend leaves with you." " Fuck you!" " Let's go." " Wait." "Suck it." "Ladies and Gentlemen, I've called the police and they are on their way." "They should be here..." "any day now." "An unfortunate incident." "Please tell your friends it's not always this exciting." "I'm so sorry about the disturbance, sir." " Disturbance?" "What disturbance?" " Yes, indeed, sir." "Thank you, sir." "Well, at least they weren't from Ulster." "No, sir." "I'm from Ulster." "I apologise." "Enjoy your meal." "Well..." "Here's to civil wars getting more civil once they reach here." "Let's go home." " Nick, we need to talk." " I know, but there'll be plenty of time." "We can move back to Oxford." "You could leave that job of yours." "I want a divorce!" "Don't shout." "I do still care about you." "Why?" "What about the baby?" "I forgave you about that photographer..." "I don't want you to forgive me about that photographer." "I'm sorry..." "I just... don't understand." "I mean..." "Why did you want to see me?" "Because..." "I wanted to talk to you." "But you've already made up your mind." "Please, sit down..." "Listen..." "I still love you." "We just need some time, that's all." "Just some time..." "Nick..?" "Nick?" "Nick..." "Your face..." "Your face... your face..." "Look at our people." "The driver will see you smoking." "Don't worry, he's my uncle." "Have one." " I gave up." " Come on, relax." " I'm off to a harvest." "You?" " To a baptism." "Whose?" " Mine." " You're joking." "My nephew." "How long since you were here?" "Sixteen years." "I ran away twenty-four years ago." "I only came back once." "Hey!" "Do you mind?" "Your wife?" "She died... in a taxi." "Why come back now?" "Don't you see what's going on here?" "If somebody chops off your head, you'll cry." "I won't." "It's about time." "Where are you going?" "I'll shoot." "You'll hurt yourself." "Oh, you're one of us." "Stop." " Where to?" " To see Bojan." "Son of Trpe, the innkeeper." "Anyone at home?" "Hm?" "Give it back, they cost a lot!" "Go home, you little shit!" "My uncle Mitre will sort you out." "I'll tell him..." "Tell him to suck my cock... gently." "Good afternoon." "Good afternoon." "Fucking hell!" "It's him." "Look at his camera!" "It's from Germany." "Man of the house!" "Quite a gun you've got." "Can I see it?" "Little brat!" "You can't catch me." "I fuck you little brat!" "Don't do that, son." "Let the kid go." "Hit me, cousin, hit me." "Aco!" "You old bastard!" "I didn't recognize you." "A beard and a half." " Growing older." "When did you get here?" " Last night." " Where did you sleep?" " In my old bed." "I'll wallop you." "You should have dined and slept at my house." "Aco, Putziler Prize winner." "It's been a hundred years, you donkey." "Only sixteen." "Mitre, is that you?" "Hi." "You took that from my nephew?" "I should have smacked him." "Put it somewhere safe." "May the Devil take you!" "Give us to eat." "Here comes my wife, Neda." "Cheers and welcome." "Thank you." "To long life." "Let me say something." "May we gather again next year with a bride." "He's got many brides in England." " Cousin, do you see ever see Hana?" " Forget about her." "She's Albanian." "Aren't there enough of ours for you?" "What does that matter?" "Her father will cut your dick off, then it will matter." "Her husband died last year." "She's got a beautiful daughter." "Where have you seen her?" "She hangs around the sheepfold." "Don't be stingy, bring her over some time." "Damn Albanians, they breed like rabbits." "They'll take us over." "Stop talking rubbish." "No one's taking over anything." " Cousin, have a cigarette." " No thanks, I've quit." " Don't be silly." " No, Zdrave." " How long are you staying?" " For good." "In that case we'll help you fix up your house." "The roof and the windows should be mended." "Fix it?" "Just look at their house." "Aco, Aco, take a picture of us." "Hangover?" "Hangover, yes." "Who are you?" "I'll come to you." "Are you Kate?" "You never knew when to stop." "To stop, or not to stop?" "Full stop." "Perfect." "Don't." "Still dreaming of Hana?" "Still." "She's a widow now." " I'm a divorcee." " Are you?" "And you?" "Me?" "I'm a schoolteacher." "Have you got anyone?" "Sleep." "You need it." "Good day." "Good day." "Where are you going?" "To Hana's." "Hana Halili." "Hana Halili." "What for?" "She's my friend." "From school." "I haven't seen her for sixteen years." "I want to pay my respects." "I've brought presents for the children." "I mean no harm." "Tell her it's Aleksander, from London." "Ask her father, Zekir." "Go." "Sit down." "You've gone gray, too." "Welcome." " Have you come from far?" " Very far." "How do people live in the world?" "Good, if they know how, same as here." "Welcome." "The times... they're no good." "They used to be better." "Blood is in the air." "It's stuffy." "It should rain." "It must, sooner or later." "For the children." "This was for the husband." "I didn't know he'd passed away." "Last year, in a car accident." "God rest his soul." "This is for you." "For me?" "Like in American movies." "Sitting Bull." "Come in, Hana." "Help yourself." "Thank you." "Go away!" " Welcome." " Thank you." "My grandson, Ali." "Kiss his hand." "Why is he here?" " Say thank you." " He doesn't belong here." "Take the gifts to your sister." "He doesn't belong here." "Get out!" "I'll slit his throat!" "Mother, Father, forgive me." "We're having a wedding without you." "Be joyful..." "If you only were here to share our happiness." "Rest in peace." "Hello?" "What's up?" "Hey, old man." "Hello." "Hello." "I need to speak to Aleksander Kirkov, please." "Can you reach him?" "Oh God, German..." " I want to speak to Aleksander Kirkov." " Aleksander Kirkov?" "Do you understand me?" "There's no such person here." "Do you speak French?" "No such person." "Understand?" "Who did they want?" "Nobody." "Come on." "You beauty!" "Shit." "What is it going to be, a boy or a girl?" "It doesn't matter, as long as it's a boy." "Come on, my dear." "Where did you get to yesterday?" "I got as drunk as a skunk." " It's good for your liver." " What liver?" "Long gone." "You forgot how to drink in England." "You've got the sexiest girls there." "Congratulations!" " Bojan, fetch brandy." " We already have one here." "Come on, fetch the good stuff." "He wasn't this worried about his wife." "What a bore this cousin of yours is." "I videotaped a programme about you:" "Our man made it in the big world." " Vietnam, Beirut..." " Vietnam was before my time." "Same shit." " Are you tired?" " As if I'd left yesterday." "Everything is the same." "I feel good here." "Comfortable." "America, England, where they don't shoot, that's where it's comfortable." "They shoot more there." "You can't imagine the killings I've seen." ""Will these hands never be clean?"" "They won't start shooting here." "People are peaceful." "They used to say that about Bosnia." "Now the world's watching a circus." "Waiting to kill each other." " I was in Bosnia." " And?" "Bad, huh?" "An industrial injury?" "Are you tired?" "I'm tired." "There's no reason to fight here, Doc." "They'll find a reason, war is a virus." "We split in two, our village, their village." "People give nasty looks." "I'll go and see Hana." " Where's Bojan?" " You've just missed him." "See her, but behave yourself." "Keep it in your pants." "Dear Anne," "The weather is nice." "It's gonna rain." "Wish you were here." "How is your husband?" "Hope you are happy with him." "This place is the same as before, but my eyes have changed." "Like a new filter on the lens." "Last week I told you I killed." "I got friendly with this militiaman, and I complained to him I wasn't getting anything exciting." "He said, "No problem", pulled a prisoner out of the line and shot him on the spot." ""Did you get that?" he asked me." "I did." "I took sides." "My camera killed a man." "I never showed those pictures to anyone." "They are yours now." "Love, Aleksander" "Come to Auntie, my dear." "Let's go." "Go on!" "Where?" "Let the damned Albanians rot on a pitchfork." "One of theirs." "Whore with a pitchfork." "The children saw the Albanian slut with him this morning." " I'll strangle her myself." " And then what?" "Keep out of it, you're not from here." "We'll be at the sheepfold." "Take it." "It's time to collect." "Five centuries of our blood." "Take it." "Poison yourself." " Did you see guns?" " Yeah." "You haven't seen anything yet." "This is only the infantry." "Politicians are all we need now." "Where is the UN now?" "Back next week, to bury the dead." "Have a nice war." "Take pictures." "You know what?" "You're crazy, too." "Correct." "I'm still here in this asylum." "Hana?" "Hana?" "It's me." "How are you?" "Bad." "Tell me." "My daughter is missing." "Your cousin." " Zdrave?" " Yes, Zdrave." "Do you see what's happening to our people?" "I see." "You just watch." "Help me." "As if she were yours." "Cousin." "I almost killed you." " Shame on you." " Why?" "She is a child." "A child." "That child killed my brother." "How do you know?" "There's the police and the law, let them decide." "You left a long time ago..." "you don't know how it goes." "Live your own life." "That's why I'm here." "I couldn't live with myself if I let you do this." "Cousin, wait a minute." "Aco, come back." "Aco, I'll shoot." "Do you hear?" " Aco, I'll shoot." " Coward!" "Aco, I'll shoot." "Shoot, cousin." "Shoot." "Run!" "Run!" "Run!" "Whore!" "Shoot, cousin." "Shoot!" "Aco, don't you worry, you'll be all right." "Look." "It's going to rain." "You whore!" "Blind fool." "It's going to rain." "The flies are biting." "It's already raining down there." "Come on, it's time." "Time doesn't wait." "And the circle is not round."
