Drought. No rain. Not even a drop.

They became desperate.

They all decided.

There was a religious man

in the next village,

who could perform miracles.

They would ask him for help,

ask him to pray for rain.

They traveled for miles

and arrived at his door,

and they pleaded to him

to pray to make it rain.

The old man refused to help them.

They begged him,

saying they traveled all this way,

because they had faith in him.

The old man again said no.

He took a long pause and said,

"You have no faith in me."

The farmers looked at each other

in shock,

how did he know

what was in their hearts?

The old man said,

"If you had faith in my prayers

to bring the rains,

then you would have

brought umbrellas."

Isn't it funny?

Whoever's in there, come on out!

You can all get out of here, alive.

I know you can hear me.

Come on out!

Do you have faith in me?

Papa... I miss you.

You can't fight your destiny.

Destiny is God.

It will all work out.

We've surrounded you!

There's no way to escape.

There's still time.

Come out!

Otherwise, all of you will be killed.

Come on out!

Come on out!

Some cars are coming!

Come here, come this way!

-What's the plan?

-Go there.

Wait!

Get out!

Wait! Stop!

What are you doing?

It's not safe, we need to move.

Send somebody underneath.

Let's go!

Sit down!

Sit down!

Sit down!

This is what drives the heart crazy

When I saw you, my heart skipped a beat

When I saw you, my heart skipped a beat

Our eyes met--

Bloody animals,

fighting over a bit of land.

They're your people inside?

-Get them out.

-Why?

Never mind why,

or I'll arrest you first!

You need to get this house

cleared quickly.

Look, Waderi...

You and your family

need to stop this drama!

Put your weapons down

and leave the house one by one!

This is now a police matter,

let the judge decide!

By being on this land,

you are breaking the law!

This is now a matter for the courts!

Is there anyone in there or not?

Are any of them alive,

or are they all dead?

Look, little girl, call your mother.

Well done.

Hurry up, bring everyone out.

Look, if you clear the house now,

I won't arrest any of you.

Throw your weapons down.

Who else is inside?

Send the men out. Where are they?

Well done. Call your mother as well.

Hurry up, go and get them all.

Come on, everyone out.

You want men?

Here, take us.

Arrest us.

You want guns?

You can take all our guns.

But we have the papers for this house.

Legally, this house is ours.

This is my father's house.

This is my father's land.

This house is mine.

This is my land.
