A World Apart Page #5

No, it's okay.

- How's your grandmother?

- She's fine.

She's not a young woman.

If you find it difficult at home...

you could come and board here.

Just until this is over.

And if you want to talk about anything...

I'm here.

Have you visited your mother in prison?

The war lasted more than two years.

The Transvaal allied

with the Orange Free State...

fought against troops

from the entire British Empire.

Here...

women and children were kept in

concentration camps by the British.

Like the American War of Independence,

this was the Afrikaner's fight...

for the liberty

and independence of his country.

Our country.

- Molly, are you with us?

- No, she's against us.

- There's Mom.

- All right.

I'll come home with you.

I'll get my gran to pick me up.

- Are you coming? Mom's got to go.

- Look, I'll phone you.

Hello, it's Molly.

Fine, thank you. ls Yvonne there?

Okay. Bye.

- Take that off!

- Molly.

Get out of my room! And you!

- What did I do?

- Get out!

- Yes.

-It's Molly. I want to see Yvonne.

- Who is it? Hello?

-ls Yvonne there? It's Molly.

- What the hell are you doing here?

- I want to see Yvonne.

- Who brought you here?

- Nobody.

- Then how did you get here?

- I walked.

I'm taking you home.

- Gerald, let me take her.

- I am taking her home.

- Gerald, let me take her.

- You get in the car, Molly.

- Don't interfere. I am taking her home!

- Stop shouting.

- Don't let me have--

- Dad!

Get in the car. Molly!

Dad.

And stay away from Yvonne!

- Elsie.

- Where have you been, Molly?

You gave us such a terrible fright.

Come on, hurry up.

Get dressed. They're waiting for you.

This is very dramatic.

This has nothing to do with us.

- What do you want me to say?

- How would you feel if this was your family?

Your husband, your children?

This is what you people do. You murderers!

Murderers?

You want to talk about murderers?

Why don't you show me the pictures

of the 69 you murdered at Sharpeville?

Give her respect.

Perhaps we can arrange

for you to see your children.

How are you?

Look who's here. The champion twister.

Welcome to my home.

Sweetheart.

He's blind.

He's our grandfather.

Okay.

Okay?

Don't laugh at Molly.

She's strong like her mother.

You strike the woman, you strike the rock,

and you dislodge a boulder...

and it crushes you.

I'm giving it to you.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Isn't it very nice?

- Yeah.

-It is?

Okay, let's eat.

Elsie.

There's a foot in my soup.

Eat it. You must eat it. It's the best part

of the chicken. It will make you rich.

I can't.

My mothers, fathers,

my brothers and sisters...

comrades all, I greet you

in the name of the struggle.
