Babel

It's almost new.

Three hundred cartridges.

The guy who gave it to me said...

you can hit as far as three kilometres.

How much are you asking for all of this?

One thousand dirhams.

One thousand dirhams?

I'll give you five hundred.

And a goat.

With this rifle, your sons will kill plenty of jackals.

Here, let one of your boys try.

Let Yussef shoot.

Dad, I want to shoot first.

This is the safety. Push it in when you're ready.

If he doesn't hit the jackals, at least he'll scare the shit out of them.

Your turn Yussef.

He shoots better than you.

Good luck, have a good day.

God bless you.

Kill at least three jackals.

Make sure no one sees you with the rifle...

if you see someone coming, hide it.

What are you doing?

I told you, don't spy on her.

What do you care?

Move it.

Five to two.

There's a jackal.

Where?

Over there.

What are you doing, you idiot?

Zohra doesn't mind.

She doesn't, but I do.

This is between her and me.

You're both pigs. Next time I'm going to tell Dad.

Stay out of this.

If you want me to stay out of it, don't do it.

What are you doing?

Hassan said this bullet could reach three kilometres.

That rock didn't move.

You don't know how to shoot. Give me the rifle.

See.

Yeah, but that's not three kilometres.

I bet the bullet can't hit that far.

These bullets are lame.

You're not aiming right.

What'll you give me if I hit that car?

I'll shoot.

You see? Nothing.

Let me shoot.

Shoot at it.

See... nothing.

You're right, they're useless.

Where are these kids?

Where are you?

I'm coming to get you...

Base!

You win.

- Yes? - Amelia?

Yes, sir.

Hi. How's everything?

Everything is okay, sir.

Mrs Rachel told me. I am very sorry, sir.

How's Mrs Susan?

She's better now. They're going to have to operate, but...

Look, Rachel's flying in tonight.

She's gonna find someone to take care of the kids so you can go.

Thank you, sir. Thank you. I really appreciate it.

So, look after them, okay? Don't tell them anything.

No, no, no. Don't worry, sir. Don't worry. Okay.

-Put Mike on, please. - Yes, sir.

Mike? Your dad is calling.

- Hi, Daddy. - Hi, sweetie. How are you?

Good. Dad, guess what? Today they brought hermit crabs to class.

Oh, really?

I held one in my hands. It bit me. It really didn't bleed, but...

Dad? Are you okay?

I'm okay. Everything's fine.

Mariana wanted to take one home. But the teacher didn't let her. She was...

I don't want to go to sleep. I don't want to go to sleep.

Mike. Mike.

Did you brush your teeth?

Sleep with angels, my darling.

Sleep well, sweetie.

Amelia?

Amelia?

Could you leave the light on?

You are already sharing a room...

didn't we agree to sleep with the lights off?

But I'm scared.

There's nothing to be scared of.

But I'm scared that what happened to Sam is going to happen to me.

No, that won't happen to you.

Sam died while he was sleeping.

No, baby, no, no.

That only happens to some babies when they're really, really little.

Your brother is already high in heaven, baby.

I'll sit here with you. But you can't talk any more, okay?

Go to sleep.

But today is my son's wedding, sir.

Cancel your son's wedding. I'll pay for another one,

I'll pay for a better one. I need you to do this, Amelia.

Everything is ready, sir.

Can't anyone come to take care of the kids? It's just one day, sir.

How do you expect me to find someone from here?

Susan's still recovering, and Rachel can't make it to take care of the kids.

Can't do it. Hold on.

We're really counting on you, Amelia. I'm sorry, but you have to do this.

- But... - Goodbye.

How can I be in two places at once?

I'm just asking you to take them for today.

I can't, the mister is still home.

And they aren't going out?

No, I don't think so.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.

I can't Amelia.

Please, it's my son's wedding.

Just for the day, Lucia. I'll be back for them tonight.

And what do I say to Mrs Catherine?

I don't know. Tell her they're your nephews.

Right, because they look so much like me...

with my American looking face!

Are we going to see your house?

Yes. You are going to see my house.

Is it far?

No, no.

What's up?

Hi Auntie.

Great to see you, Santiago.

Mike. Debbie.

Hello!

Hello, hello.

They're really shy.

What? These kids are coming with us?

I couldn't find anyone to watch them.

Their parents won't return tonight.

Why bring them? They'll drive you crazy.

Don't worry, they're very good kids.

Don't you want to leave them with somebody?

I know a girl who can take care of them.

Are you crazy? I have to take them with me.

I can't leave them with just anybody.

Are you sure, Auntie?

You want to order?

Yeah, I'll have the chicken couscous and a Coke.

What do you have that doesn't have fat in it?

Everything is delicious.

I'll have the fried eggplant and a Diet Coke.

Sorry, we don't have Diet Coke.

- Then a regular Coke. - Two Cokes.

Richard, why did we come here?

What do you mean, why?

Really. Why are we here?

To be alone.

"Alone."

- Throw out the ice. - The Coke's hot.

Yeah, but you don't know what kind of water is in there.

Jesus Christ. Why can't you just relax? Why are you so stressed?

You are the reason I'm stressed. You're the reason why I can't relax.

You could if you tried.

You don't think I tried?

You're never gonna forgive me, are you?

You know what I'm talking about.

Hey. I'm not gonna argue.

Okay.

You just let me know when you're ready to argue.

If you're not gonna run away again.

- Honey? What happened? - I'm okay.

Honey, what happened? What happened?

You're bleeding, you're bleeding.

- Oh, my God! - She's been shot!

Jesus. What happened?

You're bleeding. Oh, my God!

Stop the bus!

- What happened? - Stop the bus!

The ball was out.

That was out.

No, it was good.

That was out.

I'm deaf, not blind.

You're out.

You shouldn't have lost your temper. We lost the game.

It wasn't my fault, it was the ref.

If you hadn't been thrown out, we would've won the game.

Why are you in a bad mood?

She's always in a bad mood because nobody's fucked her yet.

I'm gonna fuck your dad to get rid of my mood.

I'll see you at the J-Pop.

What do you want to eat?

I said I'd meet my friends from the team at J-Pop.

Didn't you tell me we would have lunch together?

Dad, I told you I was going to eat with them.

You never pay attention to me.

My mother always paid attention to me.

Why do you want to fight?

I miss your mother too.

I'm doing the best I can.

Don't forget the dentist at three.

Take care.

Do you have a table?
