Catch a Fire Page #2
a boss man now.
A foreman.
Precious, we can't afford it.
Keep your finger off the trigger
until you are ready to fire.
Okay, ja.
I got him, Pa.
Next time keep your eyes open. Yeah.
All right,
pick up the weapon.
No, no, no.
Always at the target.
Put your weight
on your front foot.
I can't.
Come on, come on!
Run, run, run!
Maybe at Christmas
when I get my bonus.
Maybe at Christmas
we'll be dead.
Hey, don't talk like that.
I'm going away.
Tell me you'll miss me.
Come on.
Like a hole in my head.
Come with me
down paradise road
This way please
I'll carry your load
This you must believe
Katie, you may be
in a position, God forbid,
when knowing how to shoot
could save your life.
Ja. I mean... We've got to
look out for robbers.
Susan's mum and dad
were killed in the night.
It's not the robbers
we worry about.
It's the terrorists.
The communists.
This family is a target.
I hate this.
All this talk of guns
and killing.
Anna.
Enough!
Thank you.
Patrick.
Precious, we beat the Spartans!
We made it to the finals.
Secunda Lions.
Forwards ever.
Backwards never.
Oh, Precious, phone the plant
for me. Tell them I'm sick.
Patrick? Who's that?
I heard a girl there,
Patrick. Who is that?
Precious, it's a woman
waiting to use the phone.
I am warning you!
Precious,
stop your nonsense.
Phone Secunda.
Tell them I'm sick.
Precious?
Precious? Precious?
Pass the ball!
Pass! Sixpence, pass!
Go, Sixpence, go!
Go, Sixpence! Go!
Goal!
No.
No.
My father left when I was 10.
And I never saw him again.
Its better he doesn't know.
Try to
visit again soon.
Please.
It's hard.
I'll come when I can.
Oh, wow!
What's that?
Fire, man! It's fire!
Sh*t, man!
Watch your mouth.
I hope it's the school.
It's Secunda.
Earlier this week, Minister
of Police, Mr. Louis le Grange,
warned that South Africa is in a
virtual state of war... Is it safe?
Day or night,
What?
Bye-bye.
Bye.
The plant here in Secunda
uses a revolutionary technique
to convert coal into
oil and petrol. Bye, Ma.
Almost half of South Africa's
cars use the fuel
processed in this
particular plant.
Perhaps it's too early
to speculate,
but if this is confirmed
as a terrorist attack
it'll be
the largest sabotage...
Come on, arms up.
You think you're
so clever, huh?
You and your
bloody terrorists!
...two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
thirteen, fourteen.
Okay. Count.
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine, ten...
I've done nothing!
Come on.
