Machine Gun Preacher Page #6

If the rebels find us on open

road, it will be very bad.

So where you from?

A little village called Aweil.

Many hours from here. And you?

Are you from New York City?

(CHUCKLES) No.

I ain't no city boy.

I'm a hillbilly

from Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania.

That's it. Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania.

Is Aweil where your family is?

Not any more.

My family was killed by the IRA.

[DENG]:
The Muslim north

has been killing...

the Christians in the

south for over 30 years.

Two million of my people

lost their lives.

These people have been

driven from their villages.

But as you can see, these

camps are not much better.

(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

Cholera and malaria

are everywhere.

Even here, they are afraid the

IRA will attack at night.

(SPEAKING ARABIC)

Sorry, I will be right back.

Course.

Do what you gotta do.

Excuse me, you.

Black shirt. Come over here.

Please help me.

I need to transfer this woman to the bed.

Grab her by her shoulders.

One, two, three.

- What do we have here?

- Trauma to the lips.

[DOCTOR 1]:
Can I have some gauze,

please, for direct pressure?

(WOMAN WEEPING)

- [DOCTOR 2]:
What happened?

- Trauma to her lips.

What happened to her face?

She argued with the rebels

so they cut off her lips.

These are Kony's orders.

Who's Kony?

Who are you with?

I'm with Deng over there.

Which organization?

I'm with the Christian

group down in the south.

Just up here taking

a look around.

(WOMAN SHUDDERING)

This isn't a tourist

destination; This is a war zone.

If you stay here, you're

going to get killed.

Thank you for your help.

[DENG]:
Some people say Kony's a wizard.

A shape-shifter.

He calls himself a Christian,

but I say he's Satan,

who devours his own people.

So, Kony is the...

He's the leader of the IRA?

Yes, he's the one we've

been fighting for years.

But there's very

little we can do.

Our weapons are old, our

boots full of holes.

We've been forgotten

by the whole world.

What are you doing here?

Excuse me?

What are you looking

for in this place?

I ain't looking for nothing.

So, you get your picture taken?

Go back to your life and all this will

be stories you will tell your friends.

Yeah, maybe.

Hey, can I take a

look at that gun?

You say she's jamming on you?

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah. Yeah, that's cause

she's full of dirt.

Dirt and grit.

You gotta strip her down once a day.

Keep her well-oiled.

No wonder she's jamming on you.

Are you military?

Hell, no.

I just like my guns.

(PEOPLE SINGING IN

LOCAL LANGUAGE)

[DENG]:
The night commuters.

They come from deep in the bush.

Their parents send them out

because it's safer to sleep here

than in their own homes.
