All language subtitles for Welcome.to.Sarajevo.19975

Long live the liberators of Vukovar.

Today, the city
of Vukovar has fallen.

It is now no more
than a heap of rubble.

In the past two months,
the Serbs have pounded it...

with more than
two million shells.

These survivors are
heading for Bosnia...

hoping to escape the war.

But tonight we must face
the possibility...

that this is
only the beginning.

# We strolled through the fields
all wet with rain #

# And back along
the lane again #

# There in the sunshine #

# In the sweet summertime #

# The way that
young lovers do #

# I kissed you
on the lips once more #

# And we said good-bye
at your front door #

# In the nighttime #

# Yeah, that's the right time #

# To feel the way #

# That young lovers do #

# Then we sat down
our hearts started dreams #

# Of the way that we were #

# And the way
that we wanted to be #

Mum, what's gone wrong?

I'll go and look.

# Young lovers do #

# Then we sat on our own star #

# And dreamed of
the way that we were #

# And the way
that we wanted to be #

# Then we sat on our own star #

# And dreamed of the way
that I was for you #

# And you were for me #

# I would like to dance
the night away #

- The cross.
- Yeah, I've got it, I've got it.

Oh, Christ.
Go back, go back. Go back.

Get the sniper.

Yeah. Yeah, I got him.

The priest!

Yeah!

He's mad!

- Come on!
- Hang on, hang on. You don't want this?

Come on!

This is the wrong street.

Let's go back.

- Michael, let's go back.
- It's here.

Shit!

They put the roadblocks.
I turned the van 'round.

Others are going to be
stuck here for hours.

Go fuck your mother!

- Oh, shit.
- Easy!

- Huh?
- I dunno.

- Hey there. What did you get?
- We need a new driver.

What? Do you know
what it took to get Joey?

He used to be a cabbie.
He knows the city inside out.

- You know? He speaks...
- He's an idiot.

He's been selling our petrol.

And he's an idiot.

Just been running around the streets
of Sarajevo trying to find him.

Nearly got us killed. Does anybody care
about that? Is it true about the petrol?

- It was full this morning, and it's empty now.
- All right, all right.

- That's it, from there. Now, another three.
- Oh, that's good.

- Four... five.
- "No one dares move the body."

- Then the boy.
- This could come in now...

- No, go to the boy.
- I just saw this footage of Flynn being shot at.

- Have we got any of that?
- No.

- Why not?
- Why not what?

Why has everyone else
got this footage and not us?

I blame the general decline
in journalistic standards.

It's all this "news as entertainment"
bollocks, isn't it?

So patronizing.
I hate that.

I hate that too.
How about you, Jane?

I actually think
that what he did was very brave...

and most people
respond to bravery.

O-Ohh!

They were just yards from the
church when the sniper opened fire...

and now the bride's mother is dead, another
innocent victim killed in cold blood.

This is Jordan Flynn in Sarajevo.

Thank you! But, uh,
I'm not worthy of your applause...

but I will take your money.

Thank you. Oh, thank you!
You'll be remembered.

- Thank you so much.
- Okay.

O-ho! Well, look who's here.
Henderson. And Gregg.

- Care to make a contribution?
- Sorry, I don't have anything small enough.

- I'm sure you do, but I was thinkin' about money.
- Ah!

What do ya think?
Syndicated worldwide?

Yes, your producers
must be delighted.

"De-lighted" is exactly what they are.
You hit the nail on the head.

I assume they sent you here
in the hope you'd get yourself killed.

- It looks as if you will. Well done. Good night.
- Good one!

Henderson, how about
a little Bushmill's?

Hey, Gregg. Bushmill's.

- See ya.
- Come on.

I can't believe you're turnin' down
a Bushmill's. There's a first.

- I'll take it. Flat.
- Well, thank you.

I suppose he was
only trying to help.

- We're not here to help. We're here to report.
- Yeah.

Haven't seen
Bushmill's in a long time.

Michael, are you all right?

- Michael, are you all right?
- Yeah.

Good.

- All right, we're gonna drink to the line.
- Yeah, lower. Please.

- Better.
- I always try to make my most important decisions...

after reaching that line.

- I liked what you did. I thought it was really brave.
- Really?

- I thought it stank.
- Oh, God.

- You thought it stank?
- Yeah, it wasn't about Sarajevo. It was about you.

Well, you know,
oddly enough, back home...

- no one's heard of Sarajevo,
and they've all heard of me.

- Oh, right.
- Is she with you? - Freelance.

Freelance. Oh, figures.
Who would hire her?

Um, no, you see, they say
you should never drink...

serious whiskey without water...

because the strength of the alcohol
smothers the complexity of the flavor.

- Oh, now, is that right?
- Chiverly!

Oh, my God!

Oh, God.

- Jane?
- Mm-hmm?

I am in love with you.
In spite of the company you keep.

- Thank you.
- And I would like to take you away from all this madness.

Oh, are you leaving so soon, Mr. Flynn?
The war is so young.

- Hi.
- Hello, Zeljko.

- Well, I managed to get you a phone call, sir.
- Ah!

- If you want to try, you might be lucky.
- Very good.

- Here.
- Oh...

- Thanks.
- There you go.

- Right. Thanks. Bye.
- Thank you. Bye.

- Hello?
- Helen. Hi. It's me.

- Neither Michael nor Helen are here at the moment...
- Oh, shit, I'm sorry.

- Helen?
- Yeah, hang on.

Sorry, I-I put it on
when I was putting the kids to bed.

It's okay.

I must have fallen asleep. Hello?

- You okay?
- Mm. Yeah, I-I'm fine.

- Fine. What time is it?
- Uh, it's...

Well, you're an hour behind.
It's 20 past 10:00.

- Twenty past...
- She's awake again.

Can you hear that?

Mmm. Yeah. All right.
Well, you better go.

- Um, I just... I'm all right.
- Mommy!

I'm coming!

# Don't hide #

# So much soul #

# He's already in me #

# I don't need #

# To sell my soul #

# He's already in me #

# I wanna be adored #

# I wanna be adored #

Look at him. Like a baby's bottom.

Eh... in English.
Everything in English, this morning.

- Gotta practice, you know. Okay?
- Okay.

- This is my last clean one.
- Thanks.

- I bought it at Marks and Spencer in Paris.
- What?

- Oh, you don't believe it. What's this?
- No. Well...

- Hey. What do you think?
- It's crap.

- Take care of it.
- Super.

- Really? You struck me as a woman of experience.
- Really?

Uh... Jane Carson?

- Oh. Risto Bavic.
- Yes. Yes.

Co-Come and join us. Here.

- Um, Michael Henderson will be along shortly.
- Oh, great.

- This is our new driver. This is Flynn.
- Oh, hi.

- Nice to meet you.
- Hey, dig those threads!

- Yeah. It's a really great color. It's sort of unusual.
- Yeah.

- Not too showy.
- Oh, my man, Zeljko. Thank you.

- It's my favorite.
- Do you have it?

- Oh, brother. - Four of them.
- I'll just go and find Michael.

You are a prince.
Take 'em.

- This will do nicely. Thank you.
- Oh, suit yourself.

Mm.

Ah!

- For the head. You need a hangover cure?
- Mm-hmm.

Uh, would you mind
if I save it till later?

- I haven't started my hangover yet.
- Go ahead.

Go ahead. Take 'em.
All I need's one. Take 'em.

I mean, he's here now.
His English is pretty good.

He studied in, um...
Birmingham, or Bristol.

- Hi, er, Mr. Henderson.
- "Man at C & A." Hello.

- Er, Marks and Spencer.
- What?

Uh, C & A do a jacket
with a similar cut...

but only Marks and Spencer
do it in this color.

- Michael, mortar attack. Come on.
- Uh, joke.

That's four days
in a row I haven't had breakfast.

- Did you get the job?
- Yes.

Congratulations.

I brought you some hotel soap.
Wash and maybe Alma will marry you.

Harun, the man got the job.

Hey!
Hail the conquering hero.

Well done.

Look what I've got.

Egg! Thank you!

- No, two.
- Two eggs. Two eggs is a miracle!

- Three eggs! Is there words for three eggs?
- Omelette?

- Omelette.
- That's right, omelette.

Ajsha, fix us an omelette.

Do it yourself.

Come on, Ajsha.

You go first.

No, Dragan, I can't.
You're going first.

- I don't want to be a wanker.
- Go on.

Mm-mm!

Risto, have some. Come on.

No thanks.

I'll wait till this is over.

Where did you go today?

To the bread queue.

- It's in Vazim Mezgana.
- Do you know where that is?

- Yeah, boss.
- Okay. You drive.

- Okay.
- Who's got the keys?

- Hi. Is it all right if I bum a lift?
- Uh, this is Annie.

- Annie McGee. Shall we make a move?
- That's good.

Look, I know this probably
isn't the best time, but, uh...

- I wanted to talk to you about a story I'm working on.
- Talk to me? Why?

I need papers,
transport, and stuff.

If you need transport, you need to talk
to Jane Carson. She's the producer.

- I'm just the journalist.
- Do you mind if I smoke? - No.

This could be the most important story
of the war, Henderson.

More important than...
b-bombing people in the street?

- Compared to that, it seems like fucking Jane Austen.
- Really?

I never fucked Jane Austen.

Get the vegetables, Gregg. Gregg, get
the vegetables, can you? And the bags!

This guy with the eye.
Gregg?

Gregg!

What's the guy's name?
What's the...

- What's the driver's name?
- Risto.

- Risto! Risto!
- Coming.

What's she saying?
What's she saying?

She doesn't know.
She has lost control.

- Gregg, get the... Get the bread.
- You shouldn't film her!

Ris-Risto!

Where are my mum and dad?

What?
Don't understand. Risto?

- Uh?
- Can you ask this girl what she wants?

Ask this girl what she wants.

Both of the parents are dead.

- We'll have to tell her.
- Yeah.

Does she have any brothers
or sisters we could take her to?

Does she have any relatives
we can give her a lift to?

Spooling back.

Roll tape.

Rolling.

So this isn't the lead story.

No, this is not the lead story.

What is the lead story?

The Second Coming?

The Duke and Duchess of York
are getting divorced.

Or separated.
Oh, I can't remember which.

Excellent.

Michael! Hear your network
has a big scoop today.

Duke and duchess of pork
or something?

Hey, by the way. Your queen. I know she's
like the richest woman in the world.

Enlighten me. What does she do?

- I'll drive.
- Okay.

Come on. I have to go.

Look.

He asked me if I'd any girlfriends.

He's in love with me.

- Who is it?
- It's me.

I was just giving Roadrunner a bottle.

You smell of cigarettes.
You've been smoking, Emira.

- What is it?
- Just a Drina.

This isn't a Drina. I smoke Drinas.
This is an American cigarette.

Where did you get this cigarette?
Where did you get it?

I'm asking you. Where did you get it?

Good night.

# She, she, she shine on #

# She, she, she shine on #

# She, she, she shine on #

Hi!

Emira, what did I tell you?
The film people are here.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Michael?
- Come through here. Risto?

Michael?
That's good!

There's a little one here.
He needs to come in front.

For these children,
home is the Ljubica Ivezic Orphanage...

on one of Sarajevo's
many front lines.

...all them are inflicting
on this town.

You should wear them. All of you.

- I don't mind. I quite like them.
- Everyone else is wearing them.

That, um, R.T.L. driver,
he was saved because of his.

You should take one.
You should wear it on the petrol run.

- No way.
- Oh, sorry.

I don't know if we can
get insured without them.

- Michael, look. I know you don't like them...
- Shush! Listen.

These are their graves.

I, uh, buried these children
here in the garden because...

- Wonder if she can get insured without one.
...everyone can see.

We are dying. So I will
not put them away out of sight.

Everyone must know
we are dying.

So, tell them. Keep on telling them
until I hope they will move us.

If it is possible to treat
the children on the spot...

near to their families, with people
around them who speak their language...

and in relatively
familiar surroundings...

then that is obviously
the best way.

# Here's a little song I wrote #

# You might want to sing it
Note for note #

# Don't worry, be happy #

My God, I don't think I've ever
seen such clean-looking people.

# In every life
we have some trouble #

# But when you worry
you make it double #

# Don't worry, be happy #

Orphanages and hospitals are
being shelled on a daily basis.

Are there any plans
to evacuate the children and the sick?

We are here to consider
a range of options.

I know it's difficult, uh, but we have
to keep a sense of perspective.

We have to deal with 13 countries
in the world...

which are worse than Sarajevo.

Uh, excuse me, sir,
just out of curiosity...

could you tell me what
those 13 places are...

and are we slidin' up
or down that scale?

Emira has been here
since she was a baby.

Now she is so frightened by the shelling
she can't sleep at night.

Sead's mother was killed
in a mortar attack.

Zaned is from a village
near Sarajevo.

His father and two older brothers were
taken prisoner by Serb irregulars...

the feared Chetniks.

His mother was shot by a sniper
whilst queuing for water.

I've got a letter of permission
from Radovan Karadzic.

We can use it
to get behind Serb lines.

If you've got permission from Karadzic,
it can't be much of a story, can it?

Anyway, we've got 50 kids who could be
blown apart at any moment...

and nobody's payin'
the blindest bit of attention.

- What more do you want?
- We've done that story.

No, we haven't done that story. We started
that story. Kids are still there.

The U.N. are here. As long as the U.N. are here,
I'm going to keep those kids on the screen.

Every night, different child,
same message. "Get me out of here."

That's not news.
That's a campaign.

I don't care what it is.
I'm gonna get those kids out of here.

What's the problem? Big guns, little
children, evil men. Great television.

- If it works.
- What a sympathy ploy.

- Good night.
- - God, he won't listen, will he?

Oh, dear.

Since the war, the orphanage
has had to take in not only babies...

but also older children, many of whom
have witnessed terrible events...

as well as being separated
from their families.

"My mum had a job, and one day...

"she went to work and was told she couldn't
work there anymore because she was a Muslim.

That day it was announced
that all Muslims had to leave the town."

"There was shelling,
all sorts of things.

"There were dead people around.
I've got nothing to say about it.

It was terrible."

"Where my house is.
I'd like to go back there."

Yours, yeah?
Hello. Yours, yeah?

She ask if this is where
you come from?

Ah. Yes. Yes.

More or less. It's changed
a bit since then, but it's...

I want to go to England.

She want to get out of Sarajevo.

Your film would help us
to get us out of here?

Yes, I hope so.

- She wants a promise.
- It's a promise.

It's a Haggadah.

- It's the story of the Exodus.
- Oh.

It was in the national museum,
and when the Nazis came, it disappeared.

As soon as the war was over,
it was back in the museum...

and now it's disappeared again.

- It's lovely.
- Yeah, it's nice.

Yeah, but on the real one,
you can see the fingerprints...

- and wine stains when it's been used.
- Really?

Yeah, but people say that
after this war, it'll come back...

but it's been sold
to buy the weapons.

No, that's not true.

When the museum
was bombed, the old guy...

Professor Imamovich, he found
the book in the rubble.

Now it's somewhere safe.
It'll be back.

What are you doing?

I use books to cook with.

That's all there is.

If you have to burn your books...

you should at least enjoy it.

You know, special occasion,
special book.

Besides, I could never
relate to the Exodus.

- You know what I'm going to do?
- Uh-huh?

- I'm going to make a concert here in Sarajevo... one day.
- Oh, really?

Is that such a good idea?

I will defy death
in the name of art.

- Yeah, but what about the audience?
- They will die happy listening to me.

But I'm not going to do it yet.

Because, you know, Sarajevo is only
the fourteenth-worst place on Earth.

So, I'm going to wait
until we are number one.

Which place is number one?

L.A., of course.

- Can you help with the babies?
- - All right.

- What about the children? Do you want them upstairs?
- Yes.

Okay.

We came here
this evening to make another report...

on the Ljubica Ivezic Orphanage.

When we arrived, the building next door was
on fire after being hit by a mortar...

and one room of the orphanage
itself had been destroyed.

- Where's Roadrunner?
- Roadrunner's coming. Don't worry.

- Where's Roadrunner?
- Roadrunner's coming! Let's go.

Shh!

The Bosnian government has set
itself against any kind of evacuation.

From their point of view,
the Serbs want the city empty.

If they evacuate,
we're helping the Serbs.

"Evacuation is actually
collaboration."

And that's a quote.

I believe that it will take time to find
a solution to the problem.

Thus, we must have patience.

- It's cold.
- Here. Have mine.

- Zeljko.
- I don't want yours. I want a fresh cup.

- Yeah, is that hot?
- I don't want it in there. I want a fresh cup.

- Yeah. Is it hot?
- Haven't got a pen, have you?

Here, here.
Give me your book.

Look at 'em. They're like vultures.

Look at us.
We're like vultures.

Working vultures.
That's grand.

Great.

That's mine, and, uh,
Mr. Henderson is inside.

Happy?

- Thanks. Okay. Bye.
- Thank you.

Just a sec.
Thanks.

It's extraordinary, is it not,
that when there are children...

trapped in the most dangerous corner
of the most dangerous city on Earth...

that this plane is going to fly
out of here completely empty.

It would be a simple matter
to move the children...

but someone, somewhere along
the bureaucratic line, is saying no.

Oh, cheer up, Michael.

You'll be back
in London by Tuesday.

Put that back. That's my lucky hat.

Working wonders for us at the moment.

Six years in that hat,
and I've never been shot.

Ooh! Do you a swap.
This hat for my lucky knickers.

- No! Can't.
- Charming.

I'm not going to film a war
wearing a pair of your knickers.

On your head.

Do they stop you getting shot,
these knickers?

- No, I just get lucky when I'm wearing them.
- Ah!

- Flynn!
- Bears no resemblance to the...

You're up late. Where have you been?
Thought you'd gone to the seaside.

Met a lady who needed a lift.

- Hi, Henderson.
- Hi. Annie.

- Did you get it?
- Yup. Got it. - Get what?

- Was it terrible?
- Yeah. It was terrible.

Where have you been?

Uh, Omarska and Trnopolje.

It was a real party.

I.T.N. was given permission...

to visit these camps by Radovan
Karadzic, the Bosnian Serb leader.

There are 4,500 prisoners
held here.

These are the ones
we were allowed to talk to.

Yeah. Okay.

Oh, will do.
Can you just hold on?

Michael? Sorry.
I didn't want to let it go, and...

Oh, no, no. No, you
did the right thing. Absolutely.

- Well done.
- Thanks.

Annie, it's a great story.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Henderson!

You, uh, got any petrol?

- Yup. -
- You think I might be able to get a lift across town?

- Now?
- Yeah.

Yeah. All right.

Top man.

Are you Ismet Vilić?

Yes.

Yeah. Uh, uh, I was with...

I was with your son.

Huh.

You speak Bosnian, eh?

When I try to describe this
stuff in English, it doesn't sound real.

So I figured if any language could
do it justice, it might be Bosnian.

- Does it?
- Well, I'm still learning.

Little simple things.
Um, "Do you have an avocado?"

"I'm desperate for a toilet."

Ah!

Little things, you know,
like that. Thank you.

Here's the cake.

- Take the small piece.
- Toast.

Uh...

What's that?
To their son.

To your son.

History has shown us...

that you can't allow
the mass extermination of people...

and just sit by
and watch it happen.

We do not see
any evidence of a program...

of systematic or massive killing
of innocent people.

Fifty and sixty years ago,
the leaders of the world said...

"Oh, we didn't know it was happening,
and it was misinterpreted."

We know what's happening now.

Don't, don't, live
under this dream...

that the West is going to come
in and sort this problem out.

Do you want these?

Mm. Mm! What do you say
we smoke one of these?

Don't start, Flynn.
Once you start, you never stop.

Well, if you're not smokin', and you're
not drinkin', what are you doin'?

Staying alive.

- Here. Have this as well.
- What?

I think I might...
I might...

get the hell out of here
and go home.

What do ya think?

Great.

I could cover the Republican convention,
maybe, uh...

- How about, uh, the Super Bowl?
- Super Bollocks!

- Super Bollocks?
- Why is it that when Americans are playing...

- Why is it?
- Why is it that Americans...

when they're playing sport, they wear
so much padding? All your games...

You spend more time dressing up,
than you do playing.

Sure, we don't dress
to the nines, like cricket.

But what about basketball?
Just a vest.

Basketball isn't a sport.

- Basketball is a freak show.
- Easy. You're on very sacred territory.

The side that breeds the tallest
player wins. Also, it's a girls' game.

- As is baseball.
- Do you know, only two good things ever came from England.

One: America.
Two: The Beatles.

Beatles aren't English.
They're from Liverpool.

You even pad up
to play girls' games.

You know, Henderson...

those orphans are not
your responsibility.

- You're here. You're a reporter.
You're here to report.

Fuck you, asshole!

Get a job!

Hi, Zeljko. Would you
take care of these?

- Mr. Henderson. You're leaving?
- Yes.

- Have some of those. I don't smoke.
- Thank you very much.

Okay.

Yeah, 85. You?

- Oh, hi there.
- Hi.

- Good night?
- Yeah, very good.

- Hi.
- This is Nina.

Hello. Welcome to the fourteenth-worst
place on Earth.

Thanks.

- Nina's an aid worker.
- Is this water?

- Yeah. Please, please.
- May I? Thank you very much.

Yeah, children's charity.
The Children's Life Line.

We've got a bus. We brought in food,
and we're taking out kids.

Trying to pitch our story
to your network.

- What sort of children?
- Boys and girls.

Children who are sponsored abroad,
or who have relatives abroad.

And babies, I'm taking babies.

- They're easy to find homes for.
- I can get you babies.

There's an orphanage
on the front line.

- Do you need babies?
- I thought you were leaving.

You could leave.
You could leave with us.

An epic story for you.
The Exodus.

Can you help any of them?

Yeah. We'll try.
We'll try.

Emira! Look how funny it is.

- It's for the baby.
- That's for the baby.

- Your brother or sister?
- Is it your brother or sister?

No.

- What's her name?
- Roadrunner.

Mr. Henderson may take
some babies on a convoy.

What about me?

She thinks that she's going.

You promised me.

She says, "You promised me."

No, no. It's okay if we don't
have the original birth certificate.

Here they are.

If she had somewhere to go,
could you take her?

- Nina?
- What?

Emira. She's one of the older girls.
She wants to leave.

Well, does she have
somewhere to go?

- No.
- No, I can't take her.

With the older kids, we have to prove
they're visiting relatives.

No evacuation.
That was the deal we made.

What if she was going
to visit me?

What do you mean?

- Uh, just if she was coming to London, to visit me.
- It's not that simple.

Mrs. Savic?

I can't speak for her.
You'll have to ask her yourself.

What's that? Is that ayes?

Yes. That's yes.

I thought she might
want to stay.

She's been with me always.

But it's okay.
I'm glad she doesn't.

Well, it's just for a short time.
Until the war's over.

Yeah. For a short time.
I hope so.

Hello, TV man.
Got any cigarettes?

What's the matter?

Leaving already?
Bye-bye.

- You know this is completely illegal, don't you?
- Yes.

- Why are you doing this?
- I don't know.

Married?

- Yes.
- Kids?

- Yes.
- Okay...

I don't want anyone to know
about what you're doing.

Not your news crew,
not your producer, no one.

I don't want you
to sit near her on the bus.

I want you to treat Emira
just like all the other kids.

Right.

I'm very grateful.

At last, there is some...

good news for the children
of the Ljubica Ivezic Orphanage.

Five of the babies have got places
on a convoy taking children to Italy...

where they can stay
till the fighting is over.

They'll have to leave behind more than
a hundred older children...

who haven't been so lucky.

Their daily struggle to survive
seems to have no end.

The babies are not out of danger yet.

Land mines, mortars,
and roadblocks are just some...

of the hazards that lie between them
and the safety of Italy.

Only last week,
snipers opened fire on a bus...

as it tried to leave Sarajevo.

Two babies were killed.

Are you worried
for the safety of the children?

Yes, I am, but we have
a one-hour cease-fire...

throughout Sarajevo, and we have
the permission from authorities...

on all sides to bring
these children to Italy.

And what's the alternative?
To leave them here?

The mothers
of the children leaving today...

clearly feel it is more dangerous
to stay than to go.

Emira. There you are!

Is Roadrunner all right?
Did you change her nappy?

This is for you, and this is
for Roadrunner.

You know, I'd like to apologize
on behalf of the American people...

for our failure to deliver
on those air strikes.

Can't help but think that if
the situation were reversed, and the...

Muslims were slaughtering Christians,
we would have done something by now.

- Don't worry.
- Okay.

Nobody is going to kill me.

- Okay.
- Take this.

We have
safe passage through this street.

This is the street, right? No, no, we...

Door, please.

- Back!
- What's happening?

They won't let us through.
We need to take a different route.

They're sending us
the long way around.

Back. Everybody, back. Will you
get back on the bus, please?

I'm sorry about this.
They insist on searching the bus.

You'll have to get everybody off.
All right?

Okay. Okay, they want
to search the bus.

- So we all have to get off
quickly. It's gonna be okay.

Okay, come on. Come on.
Stay close. Come.

Back on the bus. We're all right. Okay,
we're okay. We're going. We're moving.

Wow! Yay!

It's... It's really like
where I come from.

- Apart from the mountains
and th-the water and the sun.

It's very, very similar.

- Wow!
- Elton John.

Okay.

It's so quiet.

- Treetop.
- Treetop. But what's a treetop?

- Treetop. Tree-top.
- Top!

You'd be better off
teaching her Italian.

- It's where she's goin', isn't it?
- Do you know any Italian?

- Tree...
- Tree...

...top.
...top.

- Helen.
- Helen.

- Christopher.
- Christopher.

- Jane.
- Jane.

- Garden... in... London.
- Garden... in... London.

- London in... England.
- London in... England.

- England in...
- London.

No.

Good night.

We give full guarantees...

according to Geneva
Convention for civilians.

You can't negotiate
with a terrorist.

ZIVKO

- Quickly, quickly.
- Yeah, head onto the bus.

First one on gets
to drive the bus.

Sean, Sean, get them
in the back door as well.

- Anna, come on.
- Let's go. Quickly.

Chetniks.

We've got documentation here
from your people in Pale.

It's, uh, it's
the official seal.

Okay, I have the rest
of the documents.

That's all the permission to go through
all the different territories.

Be cool. It'll be fine.

Oh, we have... It's... No Muslim...
No Muslim children on this bus.

There's no Muslims!

- Okay.
- We have documents for them all.

Why is he taking these kids?

We have documents
for each of these children.

They are not Muslim.

Tell me what he's saying.

They are taking the Serb
children back to Serbia.

What does he want
so I can give it to him!

Tell him we have the papers
to go through these territories.

We have documents
for each and every child on this bus.

No, no. She's English.
She's with me.

She's with me.
She's English.

Emira! Stay here.

Where are they taking them?

Stay. Stay.

Long live Serbia!

There wasn't anything else
you could do.

Swim?

Leila!

- Looks like you missed the boat, kid.
- Boat?

Mm-hmm.
You should be on it.

No.

- Hello?
- Hello. It's me.

- Michael! Hi. Where are you?
- In Split.

- I'll be home tomorrow.
- Oh, brilliant.

Is everything all right?

Yeah. I'm talking
quietly because...

I'm bringing someone
home with me.

It's not Gregg, is it?

No, not Gregg.

She's a girl from Sarajevo.
She's from the orphanage.

I wanted to call you earlier,
but I didn't know what to say.

- How old is she?
- She's nine.

Look, I don't really know
why I've done this.

She somehow thought that
I could help her get out...

and I realized that I could, and then there
didn't really seem to be any reason not to.

Well, it's, uh...

It's good, I guess.
It's... It's good.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Hmm.

- You okay?
- Yeah, yeah. I'm fine.

- Just come home, okay?
- Okay.

Okay.

- Can't wait to see you.
- Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Come on, Chris. Your go.

Out!

Hello?

It's for you.

- Coffee?
- No, thanks.

- Hello?
- Henderson.

Flynn. How'd you
get a call out?

Oh, here I badgered the network into
getting me one of these satellite phones.

I'm selling calls on the side
and making a fortune.

I hope the war keeps up.

Listen, the woman I love... you know, one way...
wants to talk to you. Brace yourself.

- Hi, Michael.
- Hi, Jane.

How's the kid?

Oh, yeah, good. You know,
complicated but good.

- Does she want to come back?
- No.

The thing is that, uh...

someone here wants her
to come back.

Someone like who?

The uncle contacted us here.

She has a mother, Michael,
and she wants her back.

Sorry, Michael.

Shouldn't have brought her out.

Of course you should.

What's it going to be like for her now
going back into that?

- It's stupid.
- Maybe she won't have to go back.

- Huh?
- Huh?

Maybe she won't
have to go back.

I didn't know she had a mother.

I know. I know.

- When are you going?
- Tomorrow.

- How long will you be?
- I don't know.

I have to find your mother.
I don't know where she is.

I have to get her
to sign some papers...

and then we can adopt you.

What if she says no?

She won't.

Don't worry.

- Michael?
- Sorry.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

Yeah.
What's the time?

Half past 6:00.

Gotta go.

Welcome to Miss Besieged Sarajevo.

# The eastern world
It is explodin' #

Miss Cngic-Vila!

Miss Dobrinje!

Miss Otoke!

Miss Dolac Malte!

Miss Popalic!

Miss Vilesic!

- Hey, Henderson! Hey, hey, hey!
- Hey!

Miss Kosovo!
Miss Vrete!

You never got yourself
another job?

Oh, no, I am, I, uh...

I'm covering Miss World contests.
I'm starting with the Sarajevo heat.

You're more serious about this place
than anyone, Flynn. Admit it.

Miss Skenderija!

Look who's here!

Jane, what's happened to you?

Miss Ali-Pasino Polje!

- Welcome back.
- Hi.

If we ever get out of here...

we're all gonna
take a kid back!

- Oh, good idea. You'll
make a great mother.

# The eastern world
It is explodin' #

# Violence flarin'
Bullets loadin' #

# You're old enough to kill #

I'm looking for Risto Bavic.

Michael.
Welcome to hell.

Brought you some Mars bars.
Left them in the hotel.

Fantastic. I started
to get cravings.

It's like being pregnant,
you know?

This week it's dental floss.
I never flossed my teeth in my life.

But I don't know...
I want some floss now.

And before that, warmth.
Oh, yeah.

- You haven't changed, Risto.
- Yes, I have.

- I lost my innocence.
- I don't remember you having innocence.

I used to think my life
and the siege were different things...

and now I realize there is no life
in Sarajevo apart from the siege.

The siege is Sarajevo.

If you're not part of it, you are
dreaming, you are asleep. I don't know.

You've killed someone.

Yes. It was not so bad.

I don't know... therapeutic.

I'm sorry, it's a bit dark
and cramped here.

We're all refugees here.

Zivko came to our village, put us
on a bus and told us to leave.

These are of, uh,
Emira's mother.

She looks...
She looks like Emira.

No, I know.
I'm just saying she looks like her.

He says her family made her
give the baby up.

- And now he want to help.
- Yeah.

- Is this her address?
- She's lost so much.

We've all lost in this war.

If something could be returned
that's ours...

...we'd like to have it back.

Ciao.

Who's next?

ZIVKO

This is where
they want her to live?

- Ready to play Sarajevo's favorite game?
- What's that?

It's called
"Is there a God?"

- Where does Munira Hodzić live?
- Down there somewhere.

Do you know
where Munira Hodzić lives?

Hey. I know.

Follow me.

- Does he know?
- I don't know.

- I don't think we should go with him.
- Why?

I don't know this guy.
I don't know who he is.

- Oh, it's all right.
- Hey, Michael.

- Michael, don't!
- It's all right!

# Come on, come on!

No, no.

We're just looking for someone.

We're just looking for...

Tell him we're just...
Ask him...

No, it's okay.
It's all right. It's all right.

We're just looking for somebody...

It's not serious.
We're not police!

Deutsche marks. You want deutsche...
Good money. Here!

Deutsche marks,
deutsche marks. Here!

Anglais, thank you very much!

- Now what?
- - Don't bring her back here, Michael.

- I'm trying not to, Risto. That's why I'm here.
- Yeah, but promise me.

- What?
- Promise me.

All right. All right.
I promise.

No one should have
to come back to this.

Look, there are
compensations to being in a siege.

- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah, yeah. There's this girl called Inela.

Inela. I went
to school with her.

- She's the most beautiful girl in the world, no question.
- - Sex goddess?

But she doesn't
even look at me.

I don't know why.
What's wrong with me?

- Nothing.
- Thank you.

Well, now, in Sarajevo,
everything is for sale.

I figure one day soon
even Inela herself will be for sale.

I got a packet of Marlboro...

and cake of soap
hidden away for that day.

- Tight ass!
- I'm going... Listen to me... I'm going out to find her...

and then she will be for sale...

and I will buy her,
dang, dang, dang...

and die really, really happy.

Inela. See, every cloud
has a silver lining.

Have you seen her, this Inela?

Yeah, but I think
she's past her best.

- So is he.
- Aren't we all?

I don't know for you. Look
at me, a little gray, but I'm still...

- Still hot.
Still hot, baby. Yeah.

You're maybe further past
than most, Risto.

- It's not looking good so far, is it?
- I was a champion.

Mr. Henderson.

- Hello.
- Don't you remember me?

I remember you.
I used to work in the Holiday Inn.

- Yes, I do. Zeljko.
- Zeljko. You gave me cigarettes.

They were very useful.

Now I'd like
to return back the favor.

I am told you need help.
I can help you.

- You're getting soft!
- God!

I peaked on the sixth!

Oh, God!

Oh, come on, you slack ass.
Get up!

Oh, God!
Oh, God!

# I need someone I can cry to #

# I need someone to pretend #

Oh, fuck!

# Making love
and breakin' hearts #

# It is a game for you #

# But I'm not waitin'
on a lady #

# I'm just waiting
on a friend #

# I'm just waitin'

# I'm just waitin'
on a friend #

You know, this place feels
like a virus you can't get rid of.

Sometimes I feel like
I'll never make it home.

Sometimes I feel
as if you'll never make it home.

- Bye, Jane.
- Bye.

Please, Jane.
He was a good man.

It may be inappropriate...

but now that he's gone,
maybe you and I could...

Please!

Not funny.

- Ohh!
- Sorry. I'm only joking.

Will you find the mother?

Zeljko thinks he's found her.

Oh, Zeljko's a gangster!

I know. Less trouble
at the checkpoints.

- Why don't you let me drive, Jane?
- No.

In the back, Flynn.

Fucking, fucking door!

This is it.

Hello.

- Are you Munira Hodzić?
- No, She's in there.

- You're Munira?
- Yes.

This is Emira's mother.

I've brought you something.

She wants you to sit down.

She said she knew you were coming.
It was in the beans.

Then she knows
what I've come for then.

You are here
to talk about Emira.

You have said that you will bring
her back after the war.

Yes, I know I said that,
but, uh...

things have changed
a bit since then.

The orphanage is
no longer in existence...

Mrs. Savic has gone
into hiding...

and Emira is very happy
where she is.

She wants to thank you
for all you did for Emira.

Mr. Henderson...

I'm her mother...

and I'm alone.

I know that I was a bad mother.

I know that I gave her away,
but I love her.

Do you understand
why I want her back?

- Understand?
- Yes.

Da.
Yes, I understand.

But, uh...

Emira hardly knows you.

You've seen her twice in eight years,
and to be honest, I think that...

- I don't translate this.
- What?

I don't translate this.
You must listen.

No, I have been listening,
and I have things to say as well.

- Zeljko, will you translate it?
- Just wait.

I'm giving you Emira
to be your daughter.

But because I was
a bad mother...

I don't have
any memories of her.

I want to see her...

to hear her voice.

How you get money
for this car? Huh?

It's through here.

I have a videotape
of Emira in England...

if Mrs. Hodzić
would like to see it.

Would you ask her
if she wants to see this? Sit down.

Yeah.

- Can I have some of these?
- Yeah.

She looks happy there.

I told you to mind Helen's flowers.

Right. In there.

Hi, it's me. Hi.
Could you put Emira on?

Hold on.

- Emira? Telephone.
- Yes. Okay.

- You okay? It's Michael.
- Yes. Okay.

- Yes? Hi.
- Emira? I've got your mother here in Sarajevo.

- She wants to talk to you.
- Okay.

Hello?

- Emira?
- Hello? Yes?

What do you want?

Let me speak to Michael.

She cannot understand
what she's talking about.

Can she speak Bosnian?

Emira, you have
to talk in Bosnian.

- I'm happy here.
- Good.

This is my home now.

Goodbye.

She will sign.

Stop here, please.

- Henderson. Good luck.
- Thank you.

Oh.

Don't, don't, don't
live under this dream...

that the West is going to come in
and sort this problem out.

Don't dream dreams.
