"What You Sow" "Yesterday I was a doctor." "And in one stroke no longer" "I was informed today by the medical board that my name would be stricken from the register and that I cannot practice for an indefinite period" "It's because of an incident which occured six months ago." "I've often wondered if my actions were right or wrong." "Back then it seemed right." "It all happened in a small town in Eastern Transvaal" "It began that Sunday morning." "Uncle Herman was the town's undertaker." "My service to the church waned following an incident." "His nephew had died and he asked me to go there at once." "Sorry doctor for dragging you out of church for nothing." "I'm Fritz Krynauw" "My daughter Dina" "I'm going home now I'm no longer needed." "I'll take you if you'll wait." "Thanks" "What are you doing at such a place?" "I went to school here." "Why is the burial in this small town?" "Well, why are you doing burials here?" "When I heard about the job I came for the money." "The old ladies find you dangerous There aren't many young men there now they all prefer an escort." "The drive will do them good." "Sure you won't stay for lunch?" "It's just me and my dad." "I've already been invited elsewhere." "I'm not sure." "I'll phone her, okay?" "They don't like your car either." "I don't give a damn" "Dina was a young and cheerful girl" "We spent most of the day at the famous waterfall outside the town." "I enjoyed going there." "That same night a young man escaped from a reformatory." "I didn't know it at the time but that escape would change our lives drastically." "How are you this morning?" "I checked and there's no post for you." "Do you book a bed for Mr. Cronje?" "yes." "What's wrong?" "Something happen yesterday?" "I cooked all morning them and then you decided on Mrs McDonald instead." "Not all morning." "I saw you in church and I did apologise." "Kitta came all the way from Middleburg" "Well, you never told me she was coming." "Should I have?" "So you could think I was warning you off?" "Slow down." "My waiting room isn't the place to discuss this." "Just say if you don't need me any longer." "If you want to resign then its your decision." "Get out!" "Aunt Martha eh?" "You're not here to visit her grave." "Is it Christiaan?" "He's run away again." "I'm sorry." "A woman picked him up on the road." "Says he raped her." "I'd say a woman who gives a lift to a strange man is asking for it." "Has she made an official complaint?" "The stud's returned home." "You two go home so long before you're late." "What are you doing here?" "I'm staying here, is anyone home?" "Did you escape?" "I'm not going to jail just for driving some guy's car." "You can't go home." "It's the first place they will search." "I just want food them I'm going" "They know you've escaped and Watervalboven is a small town.The police will know you're here." "If you won't help me then stick it!" "Stay and I'll bring you food" "You say nothing to the old man." "What will you do?" "I'll be okay, just leave me be." "Bring me money" "How much?" "As much as you have." "Are you hungry?" "I'm making food" "No thanks." "Have you seen Christiaan?" "He's escaped." "You sure he hasn't been here?" "yes, I'm sure." "I'll be off then." "It doesn't help to protect him, you knoe." "Sooner or later he'll land himself in big trouble." "It's better if we take him back." "I'll tell you if he shows up." "I'm a simple man, my child." "Where did I go wrong with him?" "Stealing cars Beating up teachers." "Lying." "Betrayal." "Where does it come from?" "Where is the female dorm?" "Second door on the right." "I was in the area." "Thought I'd pop in and see where you work." "I'd prefer it if the head didn't see you." "Some tea?" "Tell Ms. McDonald I want her in my office!" "I thought I'd made it clear I want personal affairs kept outside the school." "But he just wanted to ask Dr..." "Miss McDonald..." "I don't care." "Tell your friends that you can't be disturbed in the class-understood?" "Yes sir." "That's all." "Get back to your class." "Can I get the tennis court key please?" "Dr. Krynauw and I would like to play." "Of course." "From now on the tennis court keys stay in my office." "Fine." "Did you hear the police came to see Ms. McDonald?" "Her brother was in the reformatory for stealing 8 cars, you know?" "He sold it to blacks in Johannesburg." "He escaped so the police were here." "How come you're single?" " I was in love... in college but it didn't work out." "I was too simple for him." "He father is some kind of Secretary of the State" "He came to my house one weekend." "I think he was shocked." "I have a brother in the reform school." "You've probably heard about this" "Yes I have." "Mrs Coetzee couldn't wait to tell me." "He's now escaped." "Give me that money." "What do you mean?" "Must I take it then?" "You're mad- its mine!" "Try me if you want to see me use it." "I'll tell the police, I swear." "I'll be doing them a favour" "Give it to me." "Make sure the handles are sturdy" "I don't want the cushion falling off when you pick it up." "McDonald wants to see me." "It's about Christiaan" "Did you get him?" "He won't come back here." "I think he will if he's in trouble." "I tell you he won't come back to me." "Thank God my child isn't in her class" "You'd expect her to set an example." "The headmaster will die if he finds out." "He won't even let the female women wear trousers!" "If he knew she was out swimming alone with a man..." "He doesn't think much to the doctor either." "What will people say?" "Any excuse for them to gossip." "If he finds out..." "Oh he will." "Nothing stays quiet in this town." "I have no sympathy for her." "Girls who entice men are just waiting for trouble." "I wouldn't want to see when she gets called in tomorrow." "Hi Dad" "What are you doing here?" "Police are looking for you." "I've done nothing" "Done nothing?" "How many times have you escaped?" "And now you assaulted a woman who was kind enough to give you a lift." "What kind of man are you?" "She's lying!" "Yes, they're all lying." "Not you though." "It's you who is never wrong." "What do you want here?" "food, clothes- all I'm good enough for." "...when you're in trouble" "I've not come to ask anything" "Of course not- you got everything you needed from Dina." "She told you." "You're rotten" "Listen to me." "You're rotten to the core!" "Know what I'm going to do?" "Phoning the police so they can put you where you belong." "You wouldn't dare" "Who are you to order me around?" "Touch me again and I'll skin you alive." "I can't go back to that place." "I'd rather die." "The time when I protected you is over!" "You need to be broken." "Broken for your own good and I'm going to do it now!" "Listen to me carefully, old man or I'll break your neck!" "I hate you!" "Since I was small Dina was your only child." "What did I mean to you?" "Nothing!" "You were no child of mine." "Not of my blood." "You're a stray orphan that I found." "That's what you are." "Not even a person." "Worse than an animal." "What do you mean an orphan?" "You think I'd bring something like you into this world?" "Look at Dina- she's my child" "From my blood But not you!" "Now disappear and don't show your face here again." "I'll give you one last chance." "I'll only phone the police at 9pm." "It's your last chance and more than you deserve." "Now get out Out!" "Get out." "What are you doing?" "Get out!" "I gave him a chance." "He left the vicinity around 6." "I don't know where he is." "i didn't ask." "Didn't want to ask." "I thought I had a duty to him but I couldn't lie to you." "Did I do right?" "Have some coffee with me." "No, Sarg, I'd prefer to go home." "You look ill, what's wrong?" "I want to go home." "Sir is in his office, I'm sure he will approve it." "I'm glad you're here." "We need to talk." "It's a delicate situation." "Watervalboven is a small town and gossip spreads." "I heard you and the doctor swim in the river." "Please" "Let me finish." "I don't care but people are talking." "They say you were one of these new bathing suits." "Which are banned at the town swimming baths." "I don't feel well" "Oh, YOU don't feel well?" "How do I feel when I hear such stories about my staff?" "They say its a scandal for a girl of your age to socialise with a man like that." "and a teacher from my school, no less who is meant to show an example." "How do I feel?" "Excuse me" "As long as you remain an employee of this school..." "No.1 No more swimming in the river with anyone." "2." "If I hear that you disappeared with that outfit then you can resign." "The next time you give me any more trouble you're fired- is that clear?" "Miss Coetzee?" "Is it true what I heard?" "Leave it, its nothing." "The whole town's talking" "Please." "He has no right to tell you what to do with your free time." "Nobody has the right to tell you what you can wear." "Leave it, Fritz" "I want to be alone." "Sorry" "I don't want to upset you." "We don't know eachother that well but" "I feel bad about what happened and want to go talk to him." "Please don't" "He can't do this to you." "He can" "I don't want to argue." "I'm telling you he can't do it." "He's a big fish in a small pond." "It's time someone drained it." "Fine, do what you like." "Do just what you like." "I'll do it." "I'm part of this and don't forget it." "Dr. Krynauw." "Glad to see your interest in our school activities." "I want to discuss Ms. McDonald." "Walk this way." "Would you take over please?" "So what's the problem?" "You disciplined her for swimming at a river, is that right?" "That's what she said?" "That's what the whole town's saying." "Don't believe gossip, doctor." "I'm involved and I want to know." "Did you or did you not forbid her to swim in the river?" "What if I did?" "We're swimming there today at the waterfall." "Perhaps you'd like to watch." "What are you trying to imply?" "If you want to spread rumours then we'll take this to court." "I don't like your tone." "She is on my staff and this has nothing to do with you." "Fine, we'll see." "This is school property and you're no longer welcome here." "Get out of here!" "I'm not one of your schoolchildren." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "What is it?" "Don't touch me." "Let's go for a drive and we'll talk." "Don't" "Please." "Come" "What's wrong?" "This isn't you." "You don't know me at all." "You were so different when we met." "People don't just change for no reason." "Are you upset that this has snowballed?" "What is it then?" "It's private." "Maybe I can help." "You can't." "Nobody can." "Take me back please." "You're bitter." "Yes, what of it?" "It's my life." "It's not your problem." "I'm sorry about what's happened." "I don't feel sorry." "Take me back." "No, I have feelings for you." "If I've done wrong then I need to know Just tell me." "I don't want to discuss it With anyone." "Its something you can't fix." "Is it a problem you can share?" "No." "Look at that." "Run!" "Stand or I'll shoot." "Get in the car!" "Third sheep in a month." "I don't care what the police say" "If I could catch them I'd shoot them in their tracks." "We'll get a print of those tracks." "I think I know who it was." "Same prints fron the other day." "Broke into a liquor store." "It's a problem if people start shooting though." "It could become murder." "Hope you find him." "If you shot him we'll find him." "We need a doctor." "Aren't you leaving?" "I don't want trouble with the police." "Think he can walk?" "He's sick!" "Who's fault is that?" "Was it me who said he must sneak around all night?" "When he stole those cars, who hid him when the police were after him?" "Me!" "If you're not gone tomorrow I'll get the police if its by foot!" "Do it then!" "I will" "If the police take him away, we're all tagging along." "But you'd like that!" "What's up with you and my daughter?" "I've not known her long but I know what she needs." "You mean she's uncertain?" "I can't understand." "Overnight, the child has changed completely" "Is this your doing?" "I don't think I am." "Fritz I'm trying to be straight with you" "I know Dina." "She'll run away." "To Johannesburg We'll be left behind." "Alone" "I don't know if we'd get along." "It's not easy." "We'll wait and see." "And in the meantime?" "No idea." "Are you Dr. Krynauw?" "Yes." "You're the one who phoned?" "I said I can't do home visits." "He'll die if you don't come." "What's wrong with him?" "He had an accident." "What accident?" "He was cleaning his gun and .." "He shot himself?" "He shot himself." "But there's a hospital right here" "Listen, its urgent and we can't move him." "Alright!" "Show me the place." "Come on, I don't have time." "Put this down there." "We need to clean the wound." "He must go to the hospital or he'll die." "No, he wanted by the police." "It's for him to decide." "Jail or death." "Please doctor." "What's his crime?" "He stole a sheep." "But that's just a small fine." "That's not all." "He escaped from the reformatory." "Is he Christiaan" "How do you know?" "Bring hot water and a bowl." "A big bowl." "Okay Doc." "Sorry I'm late." "Looking at the queue- you're an hour late" "What must I tell them?" "Tell them I'm late." "Get me Miss McDonald please." "Miss McDonald?" "And the patients?" "Did you hear that?" "yes." "You'd better keep up your guard today." "Why?" "There was a murder in Stuurfontein." "Dr. Venter's patient" "What can I do for you?" "I have very bad news." "Christiaan's been shot but he's still alive." "But he's sick." "The situation is bad and I think it would be best to get him to Herman's house." "I've done all I can but he really needs a hospital." "Why didn't you report this?" "There were difficult circumstances." "And you'd know about that?" "I am trying to help" "I'm sorry doctor." "That child is a burden." "Do what you think is best." "Don't break the law." "Tell the police." "He's your son." "You tell the police." "He's your responsibility." "Mrs van Wyk, can you cofirm that Miss McDonald's taken 2 weeks sick leave?" "Seems she's already left." "Her brother!" "He's wanted by police!" "He's dangerous, let's go." "McDonald, open up!" "We saw you!" "Come out!" "Let's get the police!" "You can't run away like that!" "Leave me!" "Climb down!" "You'll get the police!" "Get down!" "Help him into the house." "I don't want you involved in this." "You must leave!" "We went to see Ms. McDonald about this 6 months sickleave and then we saw him!" "Hurry up!" "He's here but he will have to go to hospital first." "It seems they caught Ms. McDonald's brother." "I won't say anything about all the bandages we ordered last time." "Let them in." "You should be glad I don't arrest you." "Harbouring a criminal is serious." "How can I help you?" "We've taken him to the hospital" "I'd like you to identify him." "He has a whole list of crimes he's accused of." "Here- its from Dina." "Its better if you go." "There's someting wrong with the girl." "I thought she was grown up." "This can't go on." "I'm worried." "Take it- here's the address." "Please just go check on her." "Thanks" "Come back." "Please." "I'm not going back." "I don't know how you feel about me but I want you to come back." "I thought things between us could work out." "Please no." "Why not?" "I'm expecting" "Expecting?" "Who is he?" "Who is it?" "It doesn't affect you." "Of course it affect me!" "Are you sure?" "I haven't seen a doctor but I know" "Do you love him?" "I hate him!" "I can't tell you." "You've been carrying this around for weeks." "You must tell someone." "What happened?" "Did he rape you?" "Who was it?" "Whoever it was I need to know I won't keep quiet." "You can't protect such a man." "You'll destory your own life." "What do you know?" "You know nothing!" "How can you raise a child hating its father?" "Do you know I love you?" "I want to marry you?" "You're protecting a criminal." "Why?" "!" "I don't want to discuss this." "We will discuss this." "I'm taking you to the police You'll tell them everything." "No" "Why not?" "Why not!" "?" "He's my brother!" "Left not right- there's a difference!" "That's right." "Goodday sir." "I wanted to discuss my job." "Your post have been filled." "You didn't discuss your leave with me." "The department regards it as gross misconduct." "There were circumstances." "If there were she could have informed me." "I thought we understood eachother regarding your presence on school premises" "I see." "You're not interested in her problems?" "Not, I'm not." "You've made your bed now lie in it." "You wanted to see me in court and now..." "My God..." "I don't want to argue." "You two thought you could take on the world but its not easy." "I want to rerun the tests to be sure." "If it's positive we need a lawyer." "I'm scared Fritz" "No reason to be scared." "I don't mean that." "It's illegal." "I don't want to make trouble for you." "I don't want you to ruin your life over some misconceptions." "Nothing to say?" "You're better than before." "I'd have escaped if it wasn't for you." "What kind of man rapes his sister?" "Where'd you hear that?" "I'll just tell you one thing" "The day she gets the courage to speak its over for you." "There will be no sympathy." "They will skin you alive." "Come- there's a couple in Ward D I think she's a teacher and he's a doctor." "Scandalous!" "Terrible and she almost got her job back." "This just sounds like idle gossip to me." "The tests are back and they're positive." "Don't think you should wait." "The sooner the better." "I'm going to make you an appointment in Johanesburg." "Stay for the weekend and Monday we'll be back." "As far as I know there's no such patient." "Let me ask the doctor." "There's a clinic from Johanesburg on the phone." "They're asking about a bed booked for Miss Skoonraad." "Put it through to here and I'll speak to them." "But there's no such patient." "It's a mistake, I'll talk to her." "What operation is it?" "DNC?" "I'll put you through to the doctor." "Goodday Reverend." "Have you heard the stories about Dr. Krynauw and Miss McDonald?" "That she's pregant?" "Yes I heard." "What do you think of that?" "Mrs Coetzee saw the results herself." "There are no doubts." "It will bring such shame to this town." "Well she won't be back to school" "I made sure of that." "At least the school isn't involved." "Yes, but they're in the church." "News will get out." "No problem, we just put them under censure." "We won't let the church's good name be dragged through the mud by those two will we?" "The church wouldn't survive this We have no choice." "I don't know if this is the right move." "If they want to marry somewhere secular without ruining the church's good name then fine." "That girl and Krynauw asked for this." "When I tried to reason with them I was threatened with court proceedings." "I'm afraid we have no choice." "Is that your view?" "Yes and I hope there will be no arguments in the church about this." "If you challenge me you will lose." "I hope it won't come to that." "No, me neither." "It's Sister Coetzee from Dr. Krynauw's office." "Is the doctor there?" "He's operating?" "I just want to know." "The ENC isn't it?" "Come in." "No, I don't want to go in." "I found out that Dr. Krynauw gave McDonald an abortion!" "Are you sure?" "I'm not sure but I have a suspicion." "Oh heavens!" "What do we do?" "Come with me, I need a witness." "I want to get his incident book from his office." "That's illegal!" "Are you scared?" "Well come then!" "How do you feel?" "Everything went well?" "You can go home tomorrow." "That's a very serious accusation." "If you're wrong and making a mistake he could sue you." "There's no mistake." "I said to Sister Coetzee" "Dr. Krynauw is an upstanding man in our town." "We mustn't make hasty accusations." "Even if it's a suspicion we should at least inform the police." "Be careful." "If one word gets out about this then Krynauw's name is Mud." "Listen, I won't remain silence if a crime has been committed." "He caused this and then he gave her an abortion." "It's a scandal!" " I understand the danger of a libel suit." "I will tell the police then." "If it turns out to be true then he can't sue." "Let's wait until Monday." "There could be a misunderstanding." "An innocent reason for everything." "He can explain it to the police." "I'm leaving." "If I were you I would wait at home." "They will want to take a statement." "We mustn't be irresponsible." "For doing my duty?" "You don't know what you're talking about." "I hope you are wrong about the two of them." "Truly, I hope so." "Where did this take place?" "This morning in the Crayhall Clinic." "She was booked in under the name Schoenraad." "This will destroy Herman when he finds out." "We didn't raise his kids!" "If this is how they behave then he's just as guilty." "I think you better gives me the details." "Is it true?" "Yes ro no?" "There's a criminal case underway- its not the time to be discussing things." "What did you and Dina do?" "Tell me!" "When I asked if there were photos why didn't you answer?" "There will be a time for explanations and that's not now." "Not the time to tell me what you did to my daughter?" "Tell me!" "It's not Fritz's fault." "You keep quiet" "You better come to the station" "Am I under arrest?" " I need to take statements." "I'd rather not say anything." "Don't make it harder for us." "Dina isn't well, can I go alone?" "Fine." "Whatever you do, wait until you're married." "How could you let him do that?" "It has nothing to do with you." "It's your father speaking to you." "What happened is my private concern." "I never expected this from you." "I also didn't expect it from him." "I thought he at least had good intentions." "That you would get married." "I didn't want to marry him." "Why?" "Why?" "Because I don't love him." "That's why." "What did Miss McDonald see you about?" "It was a private appointment." "She had an appointment in the register." "I can't break patient doctor privilege." "Its unethical to discuss my patient's appointment." "Did you perform an abortion?" "Mrs Coetzee says you did." "She saw it." "She made a mistake." "You made an appointment for a Miss Schoenraad at the clinic in Johannesburg." "Sorry Doctor, I must take you into custody." "Would you like to phone your lawyer?" "What about Miss McDonald?" "It its true she will have to be a witness." "You can use this phone." "What you in for?" "Abortion on your sister." "You're lying." "I know you're lying!" "The State vs. Krynauw and McDonald." "The charge is abortion." "The prosecution doesn't yet have all the evidence and I ask for an adjurnment." "I ask that bail be set." "We don't object but ask that you set bail at R500." "We agree as long as the accused to not contact one another or any of the other witnesses." "Has the State decided who these witnesses are?" "Yes Your Honour." "Come with me, we need to talk." "Excuse us." "You suspected she was pregnant." "They know you did the tests." "They know the results were positive." "They know she was booked into the clinic." "Lawyers have the same ethical code." "I'm not going to lie in court." "I don't want you to." "If you're pleading guilty then what chance do you stand without lying?" "There were mitigating circumstances." "Okay, you plead guilty and we discuss mitigating circumstances." "I don't stand a chance" "If the court recognises this you can get a reduced sentence." "If there's anything else tell me now!" "You know that you could both receive a prison sentence?" "The medical board with strike him off." "What are you hiding?" "Trust me to decide what can and can't be used in this case." "It was rape." "You told the police?" "Why not?" "I couldn't." "You better tell me the whole story." "You need to think about Fritz." "He'll lose his whole practice if you don't talk." "I know!" "Do something then." "You don't understand" "You're right I don't" "If you won't tell me then there's nothing I can do." "What will happen to the man who raped me?" "You care about him" "Yes." "Excuse me but you're in a hell of a mess!" "And Fritz as well." "It's your business but let me tell you something" "I'm not represent you if you won't trust me." "Think about that." "He protected me since I was young." "I can't remember how many black eyes he got." "We played together so well." "Then later when my mother died." "He died as well." "But I will always remember him how he was." "Before she died I'd never thought I'd end up protecting him." "I can't send him to prison." "It's your decision." "My clients have decided to pleed guilty in this case." "I have important evidence exhibit A and B." "We will argue for leniency due to mitigating circumstances." "The State confirms this plea." "The court finds the defendents guilty as accused." "There are mitigating circumstances which my clients had not made me privy to." "I ask that the case be postponed so that I can discuss this with my clients." "The State does not object." "Here's a present for you." "thanks." "Miss McDonald, do you think Dr. Krynauw loves you?" "And do you love him?" "Yes" "So there's no confusion." "You love him and he loves you." "When you realised you were pregnant why did you not get married?" "He's a doctor- money wouldn't be a barrier." "No" "What was the problem then, miss?" "You must have discussed it What was the problem?" "It wasn't his child." "It wasn't his child" "Who then was the father?" "Who was your lover?" "I was raped." "You were raped." "By who?" "Sorry, I can't say." "No further questions." "Silence in the court" "You say you were raped but won't give the man's name." "I feel that you are misleading the court." "That's not true." "You're arguing for mitigating circumstances." "If you can't give the name then you can't give any." "I'm sorry but I don't believe you were raped." "or you're protecting the rapist." "It means you feel something for him." "Not true?" "Isn't that true?" "Yes." "But then its not rape." "Then you consented." "No!" "Then why protect him?" "Tell the court why you're protecting him!" "When did this rape occur?" "11th October." "Where?" "In our bathroom." "Tell us what took place." "I was in the bath." "Nobody was home." "I heard someone in the hallway." "The door opened." "The person stood there." "Did you know him?" "Did you scream?" "I told him to leave." "I thought he was there by accident." "An accident?" "Someone who had access to the house." "Dr. Krynauw entered your house?" "Who had easy access to your house?" "Your father?" "Yes" "Who else?" "Who else?" "My brother" "Who came into the bathroom?" "It was me!" "Your own brother?" "I'm not her brother" " I swear!" "Dad, tell them I'm not her brother!" "Tell them!" "The law states that in the case of incest abortion is permitted." "Guilt has not been shown since mitigating circumstances have been shown" "The court sentences both to six months imprisonment." "Suspended for two years so long as it is not shown that they are guilty." "Court is adjourned." "Christiaan was sentenced to 15 years." "The council may still allow me to practise." "Dina needed time to get over it all." "What we got through together made our love even stronger." "Dina, let's marry." "Yes, Fritz." "Subtitles by shaunx"
