so I'm leaving.

My leg!

Stop your nonsense.

- I need money for the hospital!

- Liar! He threw himself on the car!

You hit my brother!

Pay him!

Help!

Tell me.

Know where I can find

a white rooster?

It's very difficult to find.

I know they are

difficult to find!

Give me a grigri

to protect me from war.

- That's all you want?

- Yes.

- Is Maestro here?

- Yes.

A white rooster is very expensive.

It's rare.

It will cost you a lot.

They tell me you are a magician.

I have three wives.

I see one on Monday,

one on T uesday

and the other on wednesday,

not easy to do.

So you give me a little money

and I also need something

for strength.

No problem,

I have something for you.

with that,

I can have fifteen wives?

You will be in control

of the situation.

Here's the white rooster.

If it's to get married,

then show your courage.

Come.

Uncle!

Are you finished with the war?

My wife, Komona.

You don't need this anymore.

Everybody called

Magician's uncle "The Butcher

He would always keep

an empty bucket next to him

when he cut the meat,

because every time he would

cut the meat with his machete,

it would remind him

of what happened to his family

and he wanted to throw up,

I will not tell you

what happened to his family,

Because, if I do,

you won't listen anymore,

You will do like

you don't have holes in your ears,

we press and extract the oil.

we've come for Great Tiger's witch.

She's not his witch.

She's my wife.

She's not going anywhere.

- we are leaving with the witch!

- She's not leaving.

Hold him!

Leave him!

Kill him.

You are my wife.

Be happy.

Take her!

It has been two years

since my commander stole me

from my village to make war,

It is him

who putyou inside my belly,

I wonder if I throw up like this

because you're fiilled with poison,

My commander decided

to marry me

because the girl

that slept with him before me

was killed in the war

with an AK-47

so he needed a new girl

to sleep with him,

Since my husband the magician

was killed,

my father and my mother's ghosts

came back to give me nightmares,

Each day, they tell me I have to go

back to my village to bury them,

They tell me that if I don't bury

them, they will stay in my head,

They will never ever leave,

Before I go back to my village,

I have to become a poisoned rose

so I can kill my commander,

Because I don't want

the crazy things in his head

to go into your head,

To become a poisoned rose,

you have to have a thorn,

like a rose,

why are you looking at me?

I'm not looking at you.

You're looking at me.

You were waiting for me?

You want to make love?

You're all alike.

Each day, I pray God to give me

the strength to love you,

even ifyou look like

your father

who forced me to sleep with him,

even when I cried,

Help!

Guns are not allowed here.

Give me your gun.

No. I'm keeping it.

Are you OK, little girl?

Help us, Komona.

why aren't you helping us?

Come.

Drive us.

It's a hearse.

I'm waiting for a body.

You can get the body later.

Go!

You can go to the cemetery later.

- Faster!

- You can't do that.

where do you want to go?

You'll go back to prison

if we take you to a hospital.

To my uncle's, The Butcher.

- You know where it is?

- Yes.

where does The Butcher live?

Take a right at the end.

Push.

why did you do this?

You could have suffocated

the baby, you know?

The baby is OK.

Stay.

You are like my daughter.

I will teach you how

to take care of the goats.

My gun!

Give me my gun

or else I'll kill you.

My gun is my child.

It's my father.

It's my mother.

I will kill you.

Give me my gun.

You're having a nightmare.

I don't know how long

I stayed at The Butcher's,

It feels like time stopped,

Every night,

my nightmares tell me

to go back and bury my parents,

but you force me to stay here

at The Butcher's,

even if I have to bury my parents

before you come out of my belly,

or else the evil spirits

will punish you

for all the bad things

that I have done,

just like they punished

my husband the magician

because I married him before

I buried my father and my mother,

You want to make me

admit things.

You are a witch.

You eat people at night.

I eat no one!

You eat people at night!

How did the witchcraft

get into your body?

It's not in my body!

what do you want?

I have witchcraft in my body.

How did it get in?

Through Great Tiger's gun.

what?

Through Great Tiger's gun.

what do you want?

I want you to rid me

of the witchcraft.

I need a token to pray.

You must pray a lot

and ask God for forgiveness

so that Komona's spirit

returns to your body.

I will kill you!

You killed my family,

my husband!

Give me my gun!

what's gotten into you?

wait!

Each day, I pray to God

to help me so I don't hate you,

so I don't throw you in the river

when you come out of my belly,

In my head, there are things

that even the magic milk

can't erase,

Go, go, Father

Go, go, Mother

I decided to call you Magician,

Iike my husband who died,

because I hope that,

one day,

you will become strong

and courageous just like him,

where are you heading?

- To my uncle's, The Butcher.

- Get in!

I don't have any money.

No one has money.

It's OK.

I'll take care of him.
