Original subtitles

A woman who has been paid lobola for, doesn't just leave.

Unless she's busy.

What if she finds out that

you led the crew that killed her parents?

No, she'll never find out.

But because Leruo is cruel

he murdered them mercilessly.

Leruo, you've endangered our lives because of sex.

We need to get out of here.

Where are you running to?

I'm going home to my parents.

Nobody should know about that, understood?

After everything we've been through, you're leaving me?

Better that than you leaving us here in a coffin.

Where have you been? I needed you, Sihle.

Everything is going wrong, Bandile.

What are we going to do?

Gentleman. How are you?

- I'm glad you're still okay. - Sir.

Oh. My friend.

Tell me,

do you have any news about Romeo and Juliet?

What's Rolio and Julius?

I'm talking about Leruo and Sihle.

- You've learned nothing in school. - Oh.

What did they teach you in school?

There's no sign of Sihle.

Moretlo came back today. She was extremely angry.

They spoke a little, then left to visit her parents.

Why?

It seems like someone is looking for them.

They're being hunted.

Clearly, my ancestors are smiling down on me.

You know what?

Here's some money for beers.

- Thank you, thank you. - I want you to have fun tonight.

Thank you. Thank you!

Peasants,

if anyone wants a beer, let me know.

I'll buy you whatever you want. Are we clear?

If you don't know who I am,

I'm Tlali.

What about those who only drink champagne?

Goodness, what?

Are you calling your wife?

Who? I'm not married.

Hm?

That's really good news. Wonderful news.

Where's the champagne then?

Feels like something is stuck in my throat.

You're a very lucky lady because I have a case of champagne.

Bring them. Quickly.

- Bring them here, I'm thirsty. - Where's Mosa?

There he is.

Mosa, go to the car,

and bring this beautiful lady two bottles of champagne.

- Champagne. - So this beautiful lady can drink.

They're needed. I only drink champagne,

not the cheap stuff.

Goodness.

What's going on here? It's a pigsty.

Baby girl, this has nothing to do with you.

You know what you came for.

- No, man. - Is this really you?

What? Crying over your sins?

Good morning, Auntie.

Where were you?

- I was in Durban with my friends. - Hm.

You thought it best to go to Durban,

relax with your friends, and disappoint your husband?

You've disappointed your in-laws.

I don't know why I bother with you.

Your father spoiled you. He treated you like eggs.

I'm sorry, Auntie. I never meant to disappoint you.

If you were my child, I would've slapped you.

I'd slap the selfishness out of you.

Goodness! Fix this mess, Sihle.

Are we clear? Good.

Don't embarrass us in this community.

You've embarrassed us enough.

They just...

You've just gotten shot. Not so long ago.

Now you're gallivanting, in Durban.

- I'm sorry, Aunty. - Hmm, you'd better be sorry.

If I had to guess,

I'd say you ran off with a man.

Am I right?

Tell me if I'm lying.

Let's be grateful you're alive.

Greetings, Mr Leabua. Is Tlali here?

- No. - Really?

But his car is parked outside.

Do you expect me to play hide and seek with you?

No, sir. I was just worried because,

he usually calls me, but I haven't heard from him today.

No, stop it. No man.

Hey! Hey, you!

What's your problem?

Women your age are busy with chores at home.

Please leave.

Please tell Tlali I stopped by to see him.

You were right about everything, Phumzile.

Yeah, a lot has been happening.

Have you told your brother?

How?

- Where would I start? - Good.

No one should know besides you and I. Do you understand, Sihle?

I regret everything.

I was just greedy and selfish. Following my heart.

I've ruined everything.

- That's not true and you know that. - It's true.

It's true.

Now Bab'Dumisani wants the two million back.

The one my dad borrowed when he was alive.

Do you still want to marry Kwanele?

I'm confused. I don't know what I want.

But if I don't marry him, we'll lose the farm.

Then marry him. There's nothing else you can do.

You two loved each other and you've just lost your parents.

A lot is happening.

It's not like you're sacrificing yourself for a monster.

Kwanele is a good man.

How will he accept me, after what I've done to him?

You'll have to lie, Sihle.

You'll take this to the grave, understand?

You know I can't lie.

I know that, Sihle.

You don't have another option. You have to grow up.

You got yourself into this mess,

and you'll get yourself out by keeping quiet.

You know, that girl is crazy.

I told her I was going to work and she wanted to come with me.

I could tell from the way she was hanging on to you,

that she's the type who doesn't know when the party's over.

Nxa. But truth be told,

she showed me a good time. Not everyone can match Tlali.

Don't underestimate her. She'll show you a good time.

They don't call her the village horse for nothing.

I've given her a chance.

It's time for others to get a chance.

What do you mean?

I mean that, I want every woman in Lesotho,

to know what being with a real man feels like.

You must be joking.

Are you doubting me?

Not even a little bit, sir.

If there's one person in this village,

who has the stamina to take all these girls,

- it's Tlali. - You've hit the nail on its head.

I want to start with Mmathabo.

- Mmathabo is married though. - So what if she's married?

You must leave some for the rest of us.

My friend, I won't let my right-hand man starve.

Really?

Who's calling me now?

- What about her? - Nxa.

If you give it to a woman really well,

they start thinking you're married to them.

Hold it. Hold it right there.

Let me tell you something. Listen.

When you go to bed at night,

and wake up in the morning,

- then you stretch. - Oh my goodness.

You look at your kraal, and all your livestock is still in tact.

That's such a beautiful feeling.

Listen, it's been a week.

An entire week has gone by without a cattle raid.

Congratulations.

Bandile.

Let me tell you something.

When you suggested the WhatsApp group,

- Hmm. - I honestly thought

you were speaking rubbish. Do you hear me?

We thought you were speaking rubbish, right?

Yes.

Listen, I didn't know any better.

You knew what you were doing.

We believe in you. Menziwa!

Menziwa!

- Njezi! - Njezi!

We believe in you.

We have the right weapons because of him.

- Menziwa! - Menziwa!

No, ladies and gentlemen.

You all know this was a team effort. Thank you.

Well, you have to take the credit for all of this.

- That's right. - Here's a little gift,

to show our appreciation.

Wow, gentlemen.

With that...

- This is from all of us, right? - Yes.

We believe in you, man.

- Menziwa! - Menziwa!

Cheers!

Well, ladies and gentlemen.

Including you, Sipho.

We have a lot of cattle here, but Menziwa has never had this many.

Thank you very much.

Sephamola, bring the meat.

Gentlemen,

things are not looking good for us at the moment.

Those Zulus are on the warpath.

Hold on,

since when do we dance to their tune?

You don't understand.

They're not those lame Zulus you once knew.

They're meaner. They've got AK's now.

They're tougher and organised.

That's exactly the reason, gentlemen,

we have to take him out.

Leruo tried, but he failed dismally.

I promise you now, Tlali will not let us down.

Don't get ahead of yourself. Dumisani says we must pause on that.

Once he's done, he will let us know the way forward.

Are we taking instructions from Zulus now?

We've been working with Dumisani for years now.

He's protecting us for years.

He's given us absolutely everything that we needed for years.

- We'll take directions from him. - From a tramp?

How is Dumisani protecting us,

if these Zulu b***ards are arming themselves to fight us?

We need to lay low,

until their little excitement simmers down.

- I agree with you, Katse. - Hm.

Life comes first.

You can't buy your life back once it's been lost.

Rubbish, this is rubbish!

Since when are we cowards?

Gentlemen, I believe we have reached an agreement.

We lay low for a month or two.

Thank you.

Raiders are ready to leave at midnight.

There are two farms at Mansana.

So, I want them to feel our wrath tonight.

Don't worry. I'll inform all the troops.

Don't bother, gentlemen.

The Top Four has made a decision.

They said we should lay low for a month or two.

Why?

Mosa, excuse us.

They said the Zulus are heavily armed.

They have grenades and bombs.

It's not safe for us to raid their farms.

It isn't safe for who?

Do they know who we are?

Well, a decision has been made.

We need to comply.

Do you see?

This is what happens when old men make decisions.

Now we must idle like old women who don't know anything.

Are you hard of hearing?

Huh?

Do you want us to get kicked out for disobedience?

Dad,

we aren't going to listen to them, are we?

Listen here, Tlali.

Don't do anything stupid.

These are for Mbali.

I know she's tired of store-bought milk.

How are you?

I'm not okay.

Please take our child and pack your bags so we can go home.

The Sothos aren't raiding Bergville anymore.

They haven't attacked in a week. We're clearly winning this war.

I'm happy for you.

Do you know how nice it is to sleep in peace,

without fear?

Mbali no longer wets the bed, and we're both safe.

You know that she needs to be at her ancestral home.

- Baba. - How are you?

- I missed you. - You're lying.

I missed you too. Very much.

Are you staying with us?

Baby girl, no.

He came to visit us and he can't stay long.

Come here. I have a message for you.

Auntie says she misses you.

She said I should tickle you.

F*** The Top Four.

- Your father warned us. - Hey, man.

Don't you want to eat?

I understand where they're coming from.

Don't tell me about those people.

They're speaking from a point of privilege.

They have money stacked up in their houses.

- What do we have? - We need to think this through.

If KZN isn't safe,

let's lay low.

Tell me something.

Why do we have to go all the way to KZN for cattle,

when we have beautiful cattle right here?

Do you want us to steal from our own people?

Don't tell me about our neighbours.

They wouldn't think twice if they had a chance to steal cattle.

Hey, man.

- Your girlfriend is coming. - Which girlfriend?

Nxa. A person can't even fart in peace.

This is not a good time for visitors.

We're having a meeting.

I've been trying to call you, Tlali. You chose not to answer my calls.

I've been busy.

Didn't your father tell you I was here this morning?

My father? Oh, does he work for you?

Tlali, I'm not here for your games.

You haven't told me what happened with Leruo.

Did his Zulu girl

shoot him through the heart when she found out the truth?

This is shocking. You're obsessed with Leruo.

That person has moved on with his life.

You need to move on with yours.

Nxa. Just accept that what you guys had is gone.

Nothing lasts forever.

You've spoiled my day. Nxa.

What are you doing here?

I'm sorry for disappearing, my love.

You know what, Sihle? I don't care.

Married women don't behave like you.

You're gallivanting, doing as you please.

Please give me a chance to explain.

Losing my parents, really hurt me.

I didn't know what to do, or who I was.

My friends represent a part of me that hasn't changed.

That's why I went to them.

I was just trying to find myself, my love.

I was doing it for us.

- I did it for you. - No.

I did it for me so...

I did it for us.

- So you have found yourself now? - Yes, I do.

I'm ready to be your wife.

I fear women more than I fear God.

My love...

Let's stop with the games now.

- Who are you sleeping with? - Huh?

You're sleeping with someone. What's his name?

No, my love. There's no one else. It's only you.

B***s***, Sihle. I'm not an idiot.

My love, I've just told you where I was.

Please believe me. I'm begging you.

When you're ready to tell me the truth,

you'll find me here.

Nxa.
