and I met Philip?

I saw with my own eyes

he loved her.

Where is Wawa?

She's gone.

You looked in the gardens?

We've searched everywhere.

She's vanished.

We have to tell Mikum.

Let's have a big family.

How many kids will we have?

About fifty.

Maybe more.

Will the garden be big enough

for all of them?

Yeah, we'll have a huge garden.

Lots of pigs?

More than you can count.

More than a hundred or two hundred.

I'll always look after you.

Good morning.

You are very welcome,

but I'd like to know

why you are here.

We're in love, but our chiefs

won't allow us to be together.

We wanted to ask if we might live here.

Sorry, I'm the chief of this village.

I'm really sorry.

I'd like to help but...

I'd have to seek permission from

your chiefs to avoid any trouble.

We'll go then.

Wait, you've cooked a lot of food.

Eat before you leave.

Listen...

there could be another way.

There's a Christian village around the bay.

They have their service today.

They welcome new people

and they're not strict about Kastom law.

Take my old canoe.

Upon the sacred kava root,

we promised to bring your bride today.

I'm ashamed to say she's run away.

I promise we will find her

and bring her to you.

You promised her.

You should've watched her.

You should have taken her

when you had the chance.

Sit down. Sit down.

Calm down. Calm down.

Forget the peace. I'll kill you.

You've always killed our people.

How many years now?

We settled this.

Charlie, you have spoken.

Now it's my turn.

We'll kill Dain and get Wawa.

Go.

All of you, get out!

Gather around everyone.

We can't allow the cycle of killing

to begin again.

We must find Dain and Wawa before they do.

Lingai and I know the east side

of the island better than anyone.

Get Wawa and warn Dain.

We'll protect the village.

Where are Dad and Grandpa?

They've gone to search

for your sister and Dain.

I know where to look. I can help.

No. The Imedin are furious

and out for blood.

If they see you, they will hurt you.

Why are you standing there?

Go home to your mother.

Go.

We could live in the forest.

That's a hard life.

Living with the Christians might be easier.

They've seen us.

Don't be afraid.

They're one of us.

You were led by sin to live in the wild.

We will clothe you.

Our leader will show you the light.

I had a vision you were coming.

Come live and pray with us.

We'll tell your families

to come and witness your union before God.

Telling our families is a problem.

They'll never allow us to be together.

Is there another way?

Our God always listens to our prayers.

I promise you'll be safe.

We are thankful for your generosity,
