♪ en sais rien, mais elle, on la laisse ici.
Elle a menti. Elle n'est pas du tout journaliste.
Mais, j'en ai rien a foutre!
On la laisse ici. Bordel! - TOM: Louise, arréte.
Quoi ? - Calme-toi. Sois raisonnable.
Raisonnable?
T'es sérieusement en train de me demander d'étre raisonnable?
lll y a un putain de cadavre sur le sol! - We should go.
What? A man is lying dead in front of you
and you want us to pretend it did not happen?
Would you rather I'd got in the truck with him?
TOM: Who are you?
I'm out here looking for someone. He's in Kisima.
We've been out of contact.
We need to get in touch with base. Let them know where we are
and what our plan is. - Look, we can drive God knows how far
to the nearest police station, and you can tell them I shot a man
who was trying to abduct me at gunpoint.
Or you can do the job you came here to do and we can just go to Kisima.
Either way, we're fucking idiots if we stay here.

Normally people are so pleased to see us we can barely get the doors open.
Something's happened.
This is Congo. Something has always happened.
Welcome to Kisima.
IN FRENCH: Qu'est-ce qui se passe ici?
There were no reports of militia on the radio...
Well, I guess they were wrong.
OK.

I thought you had other business here. - Yeah. I'm just offering to help...
We need all our supplies inside.
We need to make a space here for anyone infected
to be kept away from the general population.
Make an isolation zone, keep them comfortable, get them on fluids...
There's some temporary bedding in the truck...
OK.
Have you done it before?
Killed someone.
I was a Captain in the Royal Artillery.
When I was serving they didn't allow women near the front line
but they trusted our tiny female hands to get the same training as everybody else, so.
Lucky old us. - You didn't answer my question.
No, Tom. I've never killed anyone before.
I'll start bringing the bedding in.

ARIEL SIGHS - So, Sankuru Airways Flight 19.
You survived the crash, didn't you?
Mr Arnason? - How did you find me?
There were thirteen people on that flight
who were never positively DNA matched with the remains found.
We checked every one of those names.
Phone details. Bank records.
We found transactions in your name.
Big cash withdrawals - several days after the crash.
LIFT DINGS
The bank canceled the card - assumed it had been stolen somehow.
But it was you, wasn't it, Mr Arnason?
It's been a long time since I have been called that name.
“We“ - Excuse me?
You keep saying "we". "We found transactions in your account".
Who is "we"?
Myself and some people who used to work for me.
What kind of work are you in?
I used to be in military intelligence.
Funny.
I never talked about this, but now it seems I talk about it all the time.
But I am glad to.
For so long this has held me down - the weight of what I know.
Sometimes, at night, I...
I can't catch my breath.
Well, there was a man on the flight.
I'm sorry.
I don't understand you. Aren't you here for me?
You said you knew what I'd done.
Yes, but I don't care as long as you tell me what happened.
Now, there was a man on the flight.
Mid-30s, white.
Sorry. I... I don't remember.
A regional flight from Goma to Kinshasa;
on any given day there would be no more than a handful of white people.
Think.
He might have been wearing an orange baseball cap.
Honestly, I try not to think about it at all.
When I do, when the images come to me... they're blurry.
I can't really place anything. - OK.
OK, never mind.
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT Let's just talk about the flight, hm?
IN SWAHILI: Jambo! Jambo! Muchunge mbele, tutakuya kumisaidia hapa sasa.
Muchunge, tutakuya kumisaidia.
You took your time.
Well, we had to let people know that we are here.
Except the local headman is nowhere to be found.
There's nobody in charge? - Not really.
And the atmosphere out there... it's not right.
Why? Because of the militia? - No, it's not just them.
It's something else.
So let's keep our heads down and finish our work.
We're ready.
Perfect then.
OK.

Well, this man - late 30s, early 40s...
Does he have the stars?
LIFT DINGS - Mr Arnason...
Please...
Please, stop calling me that. - Ariel...
you described a man with two gold stars on his epaulettes.
You are sure about that, are you not? - Yes. Yes, I remember that definitely.
Well then, please assume that I won't waste your time
describing someone who doesn't have that insignia.
OK.
Heavy brows, brown eyes, thickset...
his head's shaved - but of course he could've had it cut
before or after the picture was taken...
This is useless. We've been through your list twice already.
I don't know.
But think, even the tiniest physical detail.
You also saw him in the newspaper... - It wasn't a newspaper, it was...
They don't really have them in that part of the Congo.
It was four sheets of home-printed A4.
It won't be on any record anywhere. We're wasting our time.
Mr Arnason...
Ariel...
You remember the stars on the uniform.
Now, the man you saw handing what was a bomb to a woman on the plane
was a Major General.
Now, if you're right about that insignia, he was in the Air Force.
Now that, narrows our search down to 30, maybe 40 men...
Believe me. I want to help. Honestly.
But I cannot identify a man I can no longer see.

Thanks to you, I now have more information than I had before.

Please. The rule of thumb - you don't go off anywhere out here on your own.

There was this old English law that said a man could legally beat his wife
with a stick as long as the stick was no thicker than his thumb.

what am I supposed to do?
But they offered you money for what? - You've heard of coltan?
It's in every smartphone, laptop... - Yeah. I've heard of coltan.
And there's a mine north of here.
Owned by the government.
So whenever I come through these parts, I load up one of the vehicles
with coltan and take it across the border to Rwanda.
You do what I do, the border guards tend to leave you alone.
Oh, yeah. No sense harassing the good guys, right?
Fuck you. I love what I do but I am paid nothing.
So yes, I guess I am a bad person who does good things.
What did the militia want with you?
They wanted me to go to the mine and meet with Pieter Bello.
How do you know him?
He's the one who paid me. He's the one smuggling the coltan out of the mine.
But you knew I was looking for him! You saw the photo, you said nothing!
Why should 1? I don't know you. I don't owe you a thing.
He knows where my husband is.
Will Mason. You heard that name before?
No, nothing. I swear. I've met Pieter a few times, at most.
He came to me, made me an offer...
I said yes. That's it. I've told you what I know..
So where are you going?
Get some rest.
We need to get moving tomorrow at first light.
No! Hold on! - What?
You need to do something for me. - Like what?
Help me get to Pieter Bello.
Why should I help you?
Because he knows where my husband is.
You're asking the wrong person. I have my own problems, Georgia.
You know what? I'm your problem now.
If you don't want me to start telling the people you work for
what you've been up to, then you're going to do what I say. Do you understand?
Mr Helgason?
The front desk told me you were here...
It's Martin. - I recognised the footsteps.
Your posh English shoes. You could tap-dance in those.
I'm sorry, I'm confused - why are you here?
It's just that...
It's just that now, between meeting Beatrix and then you turning up here...
If there is a God, then he is trying to speak to me.
And it's not just a sign - it's a hand-written invitation.
An invitation to what? - To the DRC.
I want to come with you, to Kinshasa. - Wow, wow, wow, wow.
Just a minute.
Ariel, come with me.
This is not an option.
I remember his voice.
The man who gave that woman the laptop. I remember it as clear as anything.
We go out there and you can narrow down the list of the people it might be.
I can listen to his voice...
Ariel this is madness.
Look, I'm not proud of the man I used to be.
You want to find your friend's husband.
Me? I just want to do what I should have done a long time ago.
I want this man who downed that aeroplane - who murdered all those people -
to be brought to justice.
Oh. Why didn't you just say that?
ARIEL CHUCKLES
Yeah, you're right.
I have no proof of what happened. I only have my word.
Hm... And how is your going to Kinshasa going to change that?
I can sit with him.
I can sit with him - this man, this general. - Ariel...
He executed a plane full of innocent people
and when he finds out I exist
he won't hesitate to try and do the same with me.
So you just want to make yourself bait for a mass-murderer.
Yes.
I wish to atone.
Please.
I had no idea what she was doing.
Whenever we were in Goma she would always pop over the Rwandan border to Giseny.
Said she was seeing someone over there.
Believe me, please... if I had any thought that she was—-
You didn't know. It wasn't your fault.
When you think you know someone, you never can tell, can you?

No offense but I never would have taken you for an army captain.
