A World Apart Page #2

I'm Solomon Mabusa. This is Sipho Dlamini.

- I'm Elsie's brother.

- Go fetch her.

- Are you the one who's been in jug?

- Yes.

- Come on, Molly. Let's do it again.

- In a minute.

Come in the house.

Solomon's here.

Oh, my brother.

All right.

- Come.

-ls she here?

- Yes, she's here.

- We need to see her.

- We can--

- I'll take you.

Straight down the end.

You dropped something.

Beautiful.

Black for the people.

Green for the land. Yellow for the gold.

- Sorry we didn't phone.

- That's fine. Come in.

We have decided to give you a new contact.

Will they get in touch with me

in the usual way?

- No, something went wrong.

- Molly, come on.

We're to get a new procedure.

To boys.

Okay.

Get rid of your drinks.

Quickly.

May I see your warrant?

This is a warrant for the arrest of Gus Roth.

He's not here.

I'm surprised, Mrs. Roth.

You're having a party without him.

It's her birthday.

We'll just take a look around.

I don't need a warrant, Mrs. Roth...

to charge you under Section 94 of

the Prohibition of intoxicating Liquor Act...

which prohibits the supply

of alcoholic beverages to Blacks.

Do you see anyone here with a drink?

We want the names of everybody here.

Why does he want our names?

ls he going to take mine, too?

No, we're not old enough.

- Who did that?

- Who did what, Abelson?

"Who did what, Abelson?"

Why doesn't your father come back, Molly,

and face his punishment like a man?

- You don't know what you're talking about.

- Everyone knows he's a communist traitor.

Ivoetsak, you weren't even born here!

I swear, if I get my hands on you...

Do you have anything to say?

That's all then.

Molly, will you stay behind?

Is everything all right at home?

- Yes, ma'am.

- Have you heard from your father?

No, ma'am.

All right, child. You may go.

-It was windy yesterday.

- Stop that.

- You get all kinds of diseases from animals.

- What diseases?

- Leprosy, polio, scabies, rheumatism.

- If you say it, Jude...

I will kill you.

- Hi, Diana. Can we talk?

- Yes, of course.

Someone's been talking. We think we know--

How are you, Harold?

You're very immature at times, child!

Who was it, Mom?

- Who was what, Molly?

- Who's been talking?

Nobody.

- What did Harold say?

- Nothing.

The headmistress asked me questions

about Daddy today.

What questions?

- What did she say?

- Nothing.

This is Nelson. This is Walter.

This is Albertina, and this is Lilian.

This one is Lilian.

The little one is Albertina.

Are you sad?

Yes, I'm sad.

- Mom, where are you going?

- To the township. There's a bus protest.

- Can I come?

-It's 5:
30 in the morning. You've got school.

Please, Mom, let me come with, please.
