I don't care!

Ya still think we'll make it?

God has condemned us!

Huh, Father?

Let God alone!

We'll all die alike!

The innocent and guilty!

Quiet! I don't wanna drag a

sick man with us

It's no good ... We'll never escape!

God's already refused to feed us!

Shark, what do we do?

Try to find a way further south

We must keep going!

As long as we've strength

enough to walk!

Shark! Look!

It's too damp!

Here!

It'll be good!

How's the fire?

It won't light!

Not if you go at it like that!

Gimme some twigs!

It's sure not easy

Everything's wet

There's nothing drier?

Try that!

It's the same!

Everything's rotten here!

We're done for ... Done for!

It'll happen to the others too!

Sooner or later!

Maria did nothing!

Sit down!

Animals're everywhere ...

hunting and eating one another!

We can't find a one!

They only come out at night

Daytime, they hide

We're not used to hunting

for breakfast!

My friends, do you hear me?

Maybe hunger's made

me delirious

I'm obsessed!

Obsessed by the story of an egg!

Soft-boiled eggs!

It was when I was at the seminary

I must tell you about it!

I was in my second year of theology

I recall the dining hall and ...

its tables ... like it was yesterday!

We were ten per table

The seminarist who served

was a fat boy

He was a nice lad. He did

everything correctly ...

except each time we had

soft-boiled eggs ...

Four or five always disappeared

There was no explaining it ...

until the day we caught him

eating them two by two ...

on the way from the church to

the dining hall

I mean, from the kitchen to

the dining hall

Even so, he became the coadjutor

in my home church

My mother's name was Mary ...

Hurt?

Yes

Get up. I'll help you

Don't be mad at me for

the other night

I was feeling blue

I'm not mad at you ...

We're all guilty!

None of us are without blame!

Don't talk that way all the time!

We'll have our restaurant!

No! ... There'll be no restaurant!

Nothing!

Come on Castin!

Lemme alone!

Lemme alone! ... I'll go on alone!

Look!

It's not an old fire!

It's still intact!

It's hardly damp!

People must be near!

Then we're saved!

Let's catch up with them!

They'll help us!

We don't know who they are

They may be head-hunters ...

or escaped convicts!

Why expect the worst?

They may be explorers.

Men of good will!

We'll try?

Look for other traces!

We lit this fire

We've gone in a circle!

If we stay here, we're done for!

Let's go!

Djin, come on! Keep trying!

Lizardi, try to convince her!

No, hope's all that kept

her on her feet

We must do something!

I'm going on ahead. I won't

die without fighting!

I'll come!

No, I won't leave them alone ...

with this madman!

One of us must stay here!

You're right

If I'm alive, I'll be back

If we don't meet again ...

I thought you were just ...

a bandit!

Djin, our miseries are over! Look!

You'll see! No more bugs or forest!

Get your strength back!

We'll have to walk a ways!

Where were you?

Where'd you find all that?

You wouldn't believe me!

Eat first. You'll see later!

We'd lost all hope

God saved us miraculously!

Thanks to you, Shark!

Funny ... Some 50 people had to

die to save us

Are you sure we're saved?

It looks like a lake!

It must be Lake Tocochapa

on the Rio Mambuti

We've only one thing left to do

Build a raft and float

with the current ...

till we meet a boat

That's not all. We must fulfill

our duty to the dead

Come on, Castin! ... Come on!

What ya starin' at?

I'm ugly, huh?

Ya don't look good

I wanna thank you for everything

I like you

Me too ... ever since the first day

You slept like a kid ...

with your mouth open

You proved it to me the first day

Let's have a swim

Jewelry ... Where'd you find them?

Here ... I'll put them

in a safe place ...

so we can give them back later

They're not yours, Maria

They belong to the dead

To the dead and their families!

You're very bad to act this way!

You can't have them!

You've always liked it ...

hurry, it's yours!

What's wrong? What happened?

Father Lizardi was mean to you!

His watch! ... I don't understand!

Don't be sad! We're saved!

It's Brazil!

Your papa?

He's sick

He'll get treatment once we arrive

Anyway, I could take his place

Like to have me as your papa?

I like you very much!

God's cursed us!

He's punished us

Don't talk like that!

God makes His own decisions

Till now, I've been lenient ...

but no more!

God alone knows who He'll

punish or spare!

God's justice will soon be heard!

You're beautiful! A real lady!

Look!

A fortune! Where'd you find it?

In the lake!

Fifty-fifty!

I found the plane!

In fact it's for you! All of it!

And the girls as well!

I hadn't understood

You're nice when ya want to

No! ... It's just that we're

both alike!

We could get along together

Like that? All at once? ... May I?

Beauty for the beautiful

No, not all of a sudden!

I liked you at once

But we got off to a bad start

You were mad at me

And for good reason!

Walking in the forest,

it came to me

A woman? ... She's nothing

without a man

There! You're ready for a new life

Beautiful, huh?

We may have trouble with the

priest because of that

Let's beat it! The two of us!

Yeah, sure!

But we can't leave the girl!

The girl?

Don't think about her

I want a man all to myself

It's never happened before

Getting sentimental?

Don't you believe me?

You don't trust me?

Sure, I trust you

I really love you, Shark

It took me a while to see it

I'm so happy ...

that I want to cry!

It's incredible!

Hide, Lizardi!

You'll get yourself killed!

He'll kill us all!

Stay with Maria! I'll

get behind him!

What for?

To kill him! He's raving mad!

Wait! Maybe I can calm him down

I'll talk to him

Castin! Don't shoot! ... I want

to talk to you!

You know me! Lizardi!

I trust you!

In God's name, I beg of you!

Stay there! Don't move!
