-OK.

-I'm gonna take care of you. Don't worry.

Remember...

I'm your guardian angel.

Alex!

Alex!

Help!

Scream all you like, nobody can hear you.

Help!

Help!

Help!

Shut up!

Help!

Shut your f***ing mouth!

Put her down there.

Help!

Give her it.

Shut up!

No!

Look at her...

This is no time for prayers.

See how she is spoiling our fun?

Princess, this is just the beginning.

Come on.

Let's go from here.

-Shut up, you b*tch!

Stay still, for God's sake!

Shut up!

Hit her!

We're here.

Say goodbye to daddy.

See you never.

Greet your father.

Go with God.

Say goodbye to daddy.

Hey.

Calm down.

That was just a bad dream.

I have good news and bad news.

The good news

is that you're going to be fine.

The bad news is that we missed the plane.

They dressed the wound.

It's nothing serious.

No, no, no. No, no, no

Don't move. Don't move. Don't move.

Don't move.

We had to bring you down.

For the first aid kit.

I am so glad you're OK.

And don't worry.

I'm here for you.

We're here for you.

Alex...

It's a trap.

Selma.

Selma!

Good morning.

What is that?

Holy water.

Rakia.

Here... Your father liked it.

Hey!

F*** your Bosnian mother!

Be still, be still!

Sh*t. F*** you!

Selma!

Leave me alone!

Let's smoke.

Selma, no!

Selma!

What's the matter with you?

Have you gone completely nuts?

Do you realize what would have happened

if you had actually used this, huh?

Jesus Christ, Selma,

they're just trying to help.

Help?

Scum like them killed my whole family!

The war is over!

Not all Serbs are bad people!

Yeah, sure! You're so naive!

And you're paranoid!

Don't ever...

do that to me again.

Ever.

You understand?

You'll end up getting us both killed.

You got us into this.

Now do something to get us out of here.

Um, guys...

Um...

I'm really sorry about what just happened.

My girlfriend, you know, she's...

under a lot of stress.

OK. Her parents and her brother. They...

They were, uh...

Well, they were killed.

They disappeared...

in this area during the war. Um...

And their remains

just turned up a month ago,

in a mass grave,

you know, after those floods.

And yesterday we buried them

in Srebrenica. So...

I guess you can see why

she's in such a nervous state, I mean...

I keep trying to get her

to move on, but, uh...

Anyway, I'm--I'm really sorry.

Truly, I am.

It's OK, my friend. I--I understand.

It's a... Bosniak thing.

Yeah, right?

I mean, they are, uh...

They are complicated, you know?

She never even told me that she lived

through the war as a child, you know?

And we've been seeing each other

for a year, I mean...

It's crazy, right?

Welcome to Bosnia.

What is he laughing about?
