I just bought this.

It wasnt expensive, just 4 Mark.

You bought a grown?

Yes I did.

(Goebbels)... in his name. | And the stamp of his peronality

[going on and on... ]

Damn, I never thought I would | enjoy his voice

Ill leave the radio here.

We can take this gift.

But know I have a reason to come back

to recharge the batteries.

Do you have a rifle?

Since Jettel and Regina are here now...

Good luck with the well!

Come on little Memsaab!

Do you see the holy mouontain?

That's Mount Kenya.

It is holy.

Mount Kenya

Little Memsaab, let's go!

I cant go any further. | Mum told me to stop here!

Could you help me out?

Help!

I am a cook

A cook doesn't dig holes.

The fields are thirsty

You need more water.

Come with me!

Water.

No men?

No, men don't carry water.

Women only.

Help me! It's so heavy.

please help me too!

The water is so heavy...

Help us too!

Please give me the shovel!

I lost my heart in Heidelberg...

Fire.

Yes. Fire.

There is no water, Bwana.

Didn't I tell you.

You were right, Chepoi

I'm sorry.

Go home!

Thank you. Thanks a lot!

6 months later

Why doesnt Owour slaugter chicken?

Thats how it is arranged with Morrison. | Just the eggs.

I cant stand this garbage. | From time to time I need meat!

Thanks, Owuor.

Fire.

You have to look at the fire,

if it has been quiet a while.

Dont be afraid. | Its just a normal bush fire.

It wont reach the house...

Where do you wanna go? | Come on, thats stupid.

I cant stand it anymore. | Thats what you always say.

But I want to live with people, | whose language I can understand!

You dont earn a single cent here. Every day | we eat eggs and semi-solid food!

How could Regina go to school?

Yeah we are alive! And why?

All day long were hoping for rain so that | the battle doesnt die

which dont even belong to us? | Im feeling pretty rotten!

And sometimes I wish I were.

We just could escape in time!

Yesterday the Nazis burned down | All the synagogues in Germany

and pillaged all the Jewish shops. | They smashed everything to pieces.

People, houses, shops, everything.

Who should have informed you about | this on this goddamn farm?

In the morning I could | receive the Swiss radio.

For the Nazis were no longer human | beings for Christs sake.

I saw it coming. | I always saw it coming!

Do you get it now? It doesnt | matter if Regina doesnt study?

And mum, Kthe and your dad?

I dont know! I always said they | should leave Germany.

November 10th 1938.

Dear dad, Im very worried about the

news we hear from Germany.

What do you say?

Id love to know that you guys | are alright! If I earned money we could

afford that you leave the country! | Isnt there any way?
