Not a perfect mood,

but-

Well,

I don't know if it's-

We're f***ed up. But this is

how you deal with tragedy.

You f***ing hide it.

You bury it.

Where's the f***ing bottle?

Ba-ba-ba.

He's a great guy.

He's a great guy.

Why? Idiot.

Because we didn't die?

Exactly. That's all

I have to say about that.

F*** it.

Ah, man.

F*** it.

We feel f***ed up

about what just happened.

You know what I'm saying?

That we're talking about

our friend

as a result of our condition.

It is so removed.

Why am I sh*t?

Oh, sh*t.

That's all I want to do,

is go home and be alive.

F*** it. Sorry.

How am I going to

go back to my wife...

and tell them

that he's gone?

We might not even go.

It don't have any sense,

doing this today.

This is what

we're going to do.

It's irritating as hell.

If that's their aim,

they've achieved that.

I'll tell you.

A free loan to al-Bashir

for his palace, right.

Did you know that?

You didn't know that?

The Chinese gave an

interest-free loan to al-Bashir

for his palace.

How f***ed up is that?

Useless.

Bashir's cocktail party,

I'd love to see you there.

If they offered it,

they could use some training

from the Chinese too.

At least they might be

on f***ing time.

Surprise, surprise.

Better late than never.

If you all gather around,

I'll give our itinerary.

Okay.

Now we are here.

Hey, guys.

We will be going

Please

pay attention.

Sorry.

I will cancel the mission if

I don't get complete attention

and complete cooperation

from all of you.

Do you understand?

This can be a dangerous area.

Okay.

It's going to take us

three hours to get there.

We will be there

for approximately

an hour

or an hour and a half.

An hour and a half?

How long have been here?

I don't want any discussion.

That's it.

I need everybody

to sign their release forms.

Once they are done,

we can make a move, okay?

Turn the radio back on.

Sun block 312.

An hour and a half.

We have to spend the next

six hours with this guy.

What's the agenda?

Can we load up?

Can we put this stuff

in the back of the car?

Let's go. Let's go.

Let's go.

Bring your sun block.

Here we go.

Decapitated by a tent.

Hey. Hey.

Smile.

Smile for the camera.

There we go.

That's the game face.

Oh man, that's hot.

Africa hot.

That's what they say, right?

Yeah, Africa hot.

Sun block?

You want some sun block?

No. No thanks.

Okay.

I'm sure

I've met you somewhere before.

We haven't worked together,

have we?

No.

Huh.

I'll figure it out.

You had

some big article though.

Yeah, I've been lucky.

It's funny because

everything looks the same.

Everything is so flat, and

they have these cliffs up here

that blocks your perspective

of where you are.

What's that dust storm

up there?

Would you mind

if I took your picture?

My daughter wants me

to document everything.

It's just a disposable.

Just a quickie.

Thank you.

It's a twister.

You've been here before?

Yeah,

I've been here before.

That's cool.

This is my first time.

You guys,

it's really hot in here.

Could you

put on the air conditioner?

Man, could you slow down

a minute?

No. Keep going.

We have two hours to get there.

We keeping going now-

I understand that,

but if you look to your left-

We keep going.

We have two hours to go.

At ten o'clock there's a cut

on the left, I want you to-

Head straight. We are

going through the village.

We are supposed to

go through the village.

We are here

with Captain Tobamke.

We are not on a holiday. We are

going through the village.

This is why you-

They are African monitors here

to collect evidence of genocide

and ceasefire infractions.

Captain, would you say

that to our left is something

that you would determine

as telltale signs of genocide,

of a mass grave?

Any comments, please?

Stop the car.

Captain?

Go ahead.

Stop over there.

What's going on?

Let's go and see,

shall we?

Let's have look-see.

Okay.

The UN deliberates over whether

genocide is being perpetrated

in the Darfur region.

This happened because when

the sanctions were issued

against the government,

the Janjaweed come to end.

This is

the consequence of that.

I see full-grown skulls

and children.

Everybody.

The whole village.

They would have burned

the whole village.

You didn't know anything

about this, captain?

All I can say is that this is

a result of the West sanction.

It destroys the people

that are meant to be helped.

You're saying the sanctions

are futile?

The sanctions,

have done nothing.

Bashir promises

one thing to the west

and he does something

entirely different.

So they're counter productive.

So, what about

your inadequate security

on the aid convoys?

Because they're

consistently attacked

by government militia,

right?

And rebels, because of your

inadequate-

Okay.

Come. Let's go.

We are done here.

Come. Let's go.

Let's go.

You don't want to

answer me, captain?

It's a simple question.

We have to get to the village.

Let's go. Let's go.

What's the AU doing

to protect the Sudanese

against these attacks

by its own government, captain?

Captain!

Everybody, let's go.

Back to the village.

Come. Come.

Gather round, please.

Gather round, please.

This is Solaiman,

who is the head of the village.

They say you are welcome, that

you can walk around the village,

see what you want,

take pictures.

Now, we are going to be here for

Uwe Boll

Uwe Boll (German: [ˈuːvə ˈbɔl]; born June 22, 1965) is a German-born Canadian restaurateur and retired filmmaker. He financed his own films through his production companies Boll KG and Event Film Productions. Many of his films were produced on low budgets and Boll himself had backed his projects financially or made use of crowdfunding platforms. Boll's filmmaking career is generally divided into two distinct phases: the first consists of big budget films with a usually renowned cast, most of which gained him a reputation as a "schlock maestro", while receiving highly negative reviews from critics, with Alone in the Dark being considered one of the worst films ever made. However his second phase is marked by films with a smaller budget or were independently made, relatively unknown actors and different approaches to filmmaking; Boll's Rampage film series, Tunnel Rats, Stoic, Amoklauf, Heart of America, Assault on Wall Street and Darfur have been better (or mildly well) received by critics. After losing financing and facing constant criticism, Boll partially retired from filmmaking in 2016 to work in the restaurant industry. He opened his Bauhaus Restaurant in Vancouver, which has earned positive reviews among food critics. more…
