Ya Hafizu.
Ya Hafizu.
Ya Hafizu.
In You I trust above all things.
You are my only protector,
the guardian of my family.
You hear my words. You see me.
You know my secrets.
Ya Hafizu. Answer my prayers.
Ya Hafizu.
Protect me from evil.
Sh*t.
Sh*t!
This is great.
It's the axle. It's...
It's broken.
So, is
Well, let's just say
we no longer have a car.
So, now, what?
F***!
Come on. F***!
I told you that the GPS was wrong.
Now look where we are.
What, we're in a beautiful forest
in Bosnia.
Alex, we are going to miss the plane.
No, because...
Um...
The next town is really not,
not far from here. It's really close.
So all we have to do is we have to
find somebody with a tow-truck
and get them to tow us
to the airport in Sarajevo.
We've got all morning.
We'll get there on time.
It's a piece of cake.
Bad, lazy mutt!
You have been barking all day
so I take you out for a walk, haven't you?
Bad mutt!
Bad mutt!
Come on, come on!
What's the matter?
I'm not going into that forest.
It's dangerous.
There are mines out there, Alex.
Honey, the map says
there are no mines in this area.
Alex...
You think we are in some park in Berlin?
No, but...
All we have to do is walk south
and we'll be fine.
All right, look.
If we don't make it to the next town in...
30 minutes,
I promise you, you'll never have to watch
My word.
I give you my word.
Liar. Try me.
Are you ready?
Did you feel that?
What?
Relax!
You know, sometimes I feel like
you love that kamajija necklace
more than you love your boyfriend.
How did you just call it?
What? Jamajija.
Hamajlija.
It's what I said, jamalja.
You know, seeing,
as you have a Bosnian girlfriend,
at least you can learn
some of the language. Huh?
Oh! OK.
That's coming from somebody
who's been living in Berlin for two years
and knows only how to say bitte
and maus, yeah?
Mouse in English, maus in German.
It's easy.
OK, maus.
You'll be safe with me.
I promise.
Yesterday, at the funeral,
they said it helps to talk about it.
-Alex...
-I'm not trying to rush you. It's just...
I want you to know that I'm here for you.
Whenever you want.
I want to understand.
Uh, you know most of it.
Yeah, but sometimes I feel
like you're keeping things from me.
Like your necklace.
Or this forest.
I'd like to know
what they actually mean to you.
Alex, there's something there.
Where?
-Stay here.
-Please don't go. Please.
-Just stay there. Relax.
-I beg you.
Hello?
It's hiding. What is?
Where?
Just there. In that fog.
Fog?
What fog?
Hey!
There's something here.
Alex!
Where are you going?
Just get over here. It's perfectly safe.
What are you doing?
What does it look like I'm doing?
I am trying to get us out of here.
It wasn't locked.
OK!
I see. I knew there'd be something here.
Alex, just--just leave it.
You will get us into trouble, Alex.
Hello
Who's this?
Uh, we need help.
We're, uh, we're stuck in the forest.
We're, we're next to the LADA car.
Can you help us?
You--you talk to them,
they'll understand you.
Selma! Selma, wait!
Selma!
Selma!
Selma! Selma.
Hey!
Hey, hey.
I know this must be really hard for you.
But, baby, I hate seeing you like this.
Did you put the walkie
Yeah.
I'd never do anything to upset you,
you know that.
And you are right.
I should've listened to you.
I promise.
I will be more careful from now on. OK?
And I'm sorry.
My father gave it to me in Srebrenica.
It's..."Ya Hafizu," it's from Quran,
means "Great Protector."
It's like my guardian angel.
Hey, I'm your guardian angel.
Bobby?
Bobby!
-Stay here.
-Please don't go.
-I'll only be a minute.
-Alex, you promised me.
Maus, come on!
Bobby! Bobby!
Bobby!
You...
I think this is ours.
Hi there, sexy?
Are you lost?
Watch your step.
This place is littered with mines.
She doesn't understand sh*t.
Europe, eh?
Where are you going?
Don't be scared.
Hey, stop!
Hey!
Don't go there! Don't go there!
Listen to me, don't go there!
-Stop...
-Stop!
Stop there, I said!
-Alex!
Selma!
Oh.
There's no possible escape.
I'm going to kill you.
Be quiet, be quiet.
Help!
Be quiet, be quiet.
I know that smell.
Welcome home.
Hey.
You OK?
Breathe.
Breathe. That's right. That's right.
Maus, breathe deeply.
Deep breaths, Maus. OK?
You have your guardian angel
watching over.
Come here.
I know. I know, I know.
I know, I know...
We're OK. We're OK.
-OK.
We're OK. Yeah.
I'm sorry, but it is dead.
What's he saying?
Sh*t!
It's dead, my friend. Sorry.
It's better for him, believe me.
"Better"?
-Better, yes.
OK?
Hey! It's my dog, man! What the hell?
Calm down.
That's my dog!
Stop!
Get your f***in' hands off me!
Don't touch him!
Are you from here?
Tell your boyfriend
it was the only solution.
The dog was dying.
Dog, kaput!
Alex...
let's get out of here.
Alex, we have to go.
And now what do we do?
OK, Maus.
Ask them if they can get us out of here.
Ask them, Selma!
Selma?
This forest is full of mines.
But that's why we're here.
For your safety.
It's not necessary.
Right here and now,
you two are our responsibility.
-Nothing. They want us to go with them.
Well, tell them we'll go. Yeah?
You can take us to
Selma, anybody who doesn't fear mines
in Bosnia is a dead man walking.
-Nothing.
There are almost 8,000 hectares of forest.
-OK.
-Yes.
We are here.
You and us, you and us...
Stop it, f***'s sake!
Can't you see this is serious?
Europe...
This is serious...
The whole place is littered with mines.
Mines... Mine.
OK.
-Kaput!
-Kaput, yes.
Translate, please.
Mmm-hmm. Alex, listen to me.
I'm not going anywhere
with these two guys.
Can you please stop worrying?
I am handling--
Can you please just listen to me?
Selma...
-Mmm-hmm.
It's been raining.
The earth has moved.
That's no use at all.
You have to come with us.
Alex, we are in trouble.
In real trouble here. OK?
Would you just calm down
and talk to them, huh?
Can you listen to me
what I am saying to you?
-I am listening to you!
Maus, what's wrong?
Are you OK?
Listen... Listen...
We are in danger.
Selma!
Selma, what's wrong, baby
Help! Help!
OK. Relax, relax, relax.
Oh, f***!
What's the matter with her?
Don't!
Be careful, be careful, be careful!
She needs a doctor. OK, relax.
Lie still, baby.
I'm gonna get help. I'm gonna get help.
Relax! Relax, relax.
I'm gonna get you out of here, OK?
Stay there.
Sh*t! OK.
I'm just gonna go get help, OK?
You stay here.
I'll be back, OK?
I'm gonna get you out of here.
Yeah, we--we have an emergency!
My name is Alex Maschwit, I'm German.
Um, we are lost in a forest
in eastern Bosnia.
My--my girlfriend is badly wounded.
She needs help.
Yes, uh, somewhere near Srebrenica.
West, I think.
No, no, no!
Sh*t!
Hey, friend!
No, no, no. I got this!
We're going to take her
to our hide-out. Everything will be fine.
