What kind of Sotho man points a gun at his aunt?

The kind that wants his money.

If we take everything, she'll start a war.

Let her start a war. Are you afraid of war?

You're Tlali.

We found two dead bodies near the river.

Their bodies were riddled with bullets.

Hm.

Do know anything about that?

I don't want to find you lying on the floor.

That's the farmer's son's name, that was killed by your boys.

Here he is.

I don't know if you understand me. I said Bandile must die.

- He must die! - Die!

He must die!

Your real life needs you.

You're my real life.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

It was nice.

- Until we meet again. - Yes.

Until we meet again.

- Sihle. - Hm?

- We'll meet again, right? - Yes.

That witch nearly shot my ear off.

You had a gun.

- So? - Shoot her.

You're a shooter, Tlali.

But when you get an opportunity to shoot an old witch, you can't.

You hesitate.

We've been getting along so well.

Don't spoil my day.

Tell me, why do you care about them so much?

- I don't care about them. - Mmm.

Are you aware that you don't need them?

You've never needed them, Tlali.

You could be a leader.

- Me? - Mm-hm.

I don't think so.

Listen, I think it's time to put together your own gang.

That will make us rich.

We can keep all the earnings.

I tried that, Nyakallo,

and I failed. Things didn't go according to plan.

You have me this time. Hm?

Oh, really?

Tlali, I'm not sugarcoating anything.

If you could only see what I see in you,

you'd be surprised.

Let me tell you something you don't know.

That brat Leruo.

His mother thinks for him.

Moretlo is the mastermind behind everything.

He can't even shoot, Tseko shoots for him.

They're not doing anything we won't be able to do.

Nyakallo, the last time we went on a raid,

someone died.

I don't think anybody would want to work with me.

Listen, leave that to me.

Okay?

Leave that to me.

Menziwa.

Menziwa.

Menziwa.

- Greetings, gentlemen. - Greetings.

We've seen what we can do when we work together.

Yes, we have.

We're going far, gentlemen.

That's why I've decided to go with Sephamola to the bank in town.

I want to open an account which we can all deposit money into.

- How much? - Whatever you can afford.

Oh, okay.

This money will buy a bakkie.

I'll be buying that bakkie for Sipho.

He's offered to patrol roads near the Lesotho border.

He's opened a security company.

I'm also looking into CCTV cameras.

Each home and farm must have one installed.

Wow, now you're talking.

When you're sleeping, gentlemen,

you should be able to look after your families.

Relax because we'll have security twenty-four-seven.

Thank you.

Thank you, you've ridden a long way.

Now go rest.

Leruo, where have you been?

Oh, Mohale lost his front shoe,

and I had to search for a blacksmith to replace it.

- He was having difficulty walking. - Hm.

Pity Mohale can't talk.

Could the blacksmith be a Zulu girl?

- Goodness. - Are you in love with a Zulu girl?

- Ma-- - You're in love with a Zulu girl,

Leruo. It's true.

Never mind that because we have bigger problems.

What's happening?

- Hm. - Where are we?

My son, the son of the Okhabeni farm owner,

- Yes? - has returned.

He's killing our people.

Here.

The Top Four has given an instruction.

- You said no, right? - Have you ever heard of such a thing?

That's what you've taught me. When did you start agreeing with them?

It has to happen today.

- Where have you been? - Paradise.

An Airbnb or a hotel?

Phumzile. He hunted a rabbit.

- We swam in a river. - Goodness.

It was like a dream.

No, Sihle.

Last I checked, you had a man that loved you, that was rich,

and gave you everything you wanted. What made you choose

to sleep in a cave with a Sotho man and his dirty blanket?

- I know. - No, privilege is wasted on the rich.

- It's crazy. - Of course it's crazy.

I can't help it, Phumzile.

I'm in love.

I've never felt this alive,

since my parents' passing.

He revives my spirit, Phumzile.

I feel alive again.

This is a mess, my friend.

Don't forget that you're someone's fiancé.

I'll tell my family that I've met someone--

No, no. You can't do that.

You can't tell them you have someone else, while you were engaged.

Maybe tell them you're confused,

and need time on your own.

Not that you've found someone else.

- Do you think so? - Yes.

Thank you, my friend.

It's good to see you smiling and happy with your dirty man.

Oh, wow.

Leruo? Leruo!

What has gotten into you?

Ma, I said I'm not doing it.

- You don't have a choice, Leruo. - I do have a choice.

Especially refusing to become a murderer.

I can't kill the farmer's son after Tlali killed his parents.

I can't be involved in that and have blood on my hands.

Me? I won't do it.

- Must be nice. - No.

We're in this mess because of you, Leruo.

Now you're acting like a good samaritan.

No, no. Now you're wearing Zulu things.

You're embarrassing yourself, Leruo. You're embarrassing yourself.

Even so, Ma. I won't be reckless.

- I won't do it. - If you don't do what they want,

the Top Four will turn on me and finish me off.

Is that what you want? Huh?

It's you and Tlali.

It's Nyakallo and her mother. I'm surrounded.

What will I do? Who will I turn to,

when you run off with your Zulu girlfriend?

Are you abandoning me, Leruo? Huh?

I've always known that you don't love me.

Okay.

What's okay?

I'll find him.

Tonight.

That's what I have to say, gentlemen.

It's up to you whether you'll agree or not.

Talk to me.

What do you have to say?

What your brother means to say is,

we've all felt the cruel pinch of hunger.

We know the bitter nip of walking barefoot in the cold,

when the entire community has turned their backs on you.

But if we band together,

and became an iron fist,

we'd crush anything and anyone that tries to get in our way.

It is true, gentlemen. Tell me,

how long will we live off leftovers?

Gentlemen,

it's time to take what is rightfully ours.

So, gentlemen,

the doors are open and you're welcome.

Only if you want to be the most successful gang in Lesotho.

I hear you, Nyakallo.

People are saying the Zulus are raging with anger.

They're armed with big guns.

I'm talking about AK47s.

Do you know who my mother is?

Those bullets from the big guns will end up in the air.

My mother's muti is no child's play.

You will get there when it's dark.

Like a shadow in the night.

You'll run, sneak in,

and gather all the Zulus' cattle like a whirlwind.

I hear you, lady.

Here he is, have a look.

Mm, mm, mm, mm.

Why do they want him dead?

Apparently, he's leading the Bergville farmers.

He's standing in our way.

The Top Four want him dead.

Something is off.

This is rotten. It's not right.

Ay. What hurts is I tried talking to my mother.

I tried to argue, but she refused to listen.

She wants him dead.

Ay, my brother, do what you have to.

But you can't go alone.

I can't ask that of you. I'll do this alone.

You haven't asked me to do anything.

You've come back with a glow.

It's like there was a spa in the mountains,

where you get hot stone massages.

Can you see that? She looks like she was bathing in milk.

- You're glowing, girl. - She's glowing indeed.

- Did you bring something for us? - Ma?

Goodness. A rabbit or an impala?

You said you're hiking in the mountains, and hunting.

- Did you not bring anything back? - No, Ma.

- You didn't bring anything? - Nothing.

Mm. Let's hope it brought you back to your senses.

You need to rethink this issue of your marriage.

Mm. Can't we just snack, and go inside the house for supper?

- Hm-mm. - We'll face our problems tomorrow.

That's not possible. This child has brought us shame.

She's brought shame to Kwanele and his father.

Ma, my time alone confirmed what I already knew.

I don't want to continue with the wedding.

Just listen to that.

Have you lost your mind or--

She's been bewitched. She's bewitched.

But I tried telling you. I've tried.

I don't love Kwanele anymore.

Yes, I loved him in the beginning, but not anymore.

- I don't love him. - Listen, my child.

It's too late. You let them come into our yard,

- and pay your lobola. - Yes.

Okay, let's pay back their lobola then.

Bandile, speak to your sister.

She's gone mad.

She's had too much to drink, take that wine away.

Uncle, I need you to help me with one thing.

I need you to contact the Dlaminis as an elder,

and tell them Sihle doesn't want to marry Kwanele.

Put an end to all of this.

Baby?

♪ Let them die ♪

I'm telling you.

It's the end of the world as we know it. It's coming to an end.

No. Sihle deserves to be happy.

Oh wow.

- She deserves a hiding. - Mm-hm.

A hiding will set her straight.

- Yes. - It's a good thing I'm here.

Uncle, no one is getting a hiding.

She hasn't killed anyone.

If Menziwa and Ma were here,

we wouldn't even be talking about this.

If they were here, she wouldn't have done this.

- She wouldn't dare think about it. - Mm-hm.

I'll go to the Dlamini's tomorrow. I'm tired of all this.

I want to discuss how we'll return their lobola. Their livestock.

I'll deposit their money into their account so we can be done with this.

Sihle, relax, I understand.

I know this wasn't an easy decision for you.

Yes, it wasn't easy, but thanks for supporting me.

- Thank you for your love. - Mm.

What about the promises you made to Kwanele?

The promise to love and support him.

What do you have to say about that, girl? Hm?

You're slowly revealing yourself.

- You're revealing yourself. - Stop, Ma. Uh-uh.

No, let her. Let her continue.

It won't change anything.

Wow.

A Zulu girl.

There he is.

Take the shot. You shoot.

I don't want any unnecessary deaths.

I need to get him alone so I can blow his brains out.

The guard will wake up soon or someone else will find him.

We can't stay much longer.

Go round back and shoot, but don't shoot the bystanders.

He'll probably take his family to the other side,

and come back for his gun this side.

Stay alert and don't make any mistakes.

As soon as I have a clear shot, I'll blow his brains out.

Hurry up.

I'm begging you.

Sihle puts others first before her needs.

Please support her.

Sihle is a child. She needs to respect her elders.

She's made her decision whether we agree or not.

Nolwandle. Nolwandle. Calm down.

You forget that you're just a bride here.

You see now. This family.

Thanks for speaking up.

I was wondering why you're so quiet when things are going wrong.

Move, get in the house.

Come, baby.

Bandile, what's going on?!
