- Bastards.

- Good day, Amina.

- Sergeant.

- Good day, Jacob.

- Sergeant Stewart.

- So, she finally got
the place opened?

Nice business to have.

- I imagine it is.

- These new laws are making
life bloody hard for the police.

- They're not making it a picnic
for the rest of us either.

- My colleague's
waiting in the car.

He has a problem with
this sort of thing.

You know it's an
offense for blacks

to eat in the same
place as whites.

- There are no whites here.

Present company excluded.

As non-blacks then.

This is an Indian area.

Maybe coloreds, but no blacks.

Passports.

- You know they have passes.

- I want to see them, now!

This is only a travel permit.

- Yes, sir.

- Where's your pass?

- But I don't have a pass, sir.

I'm colored, not black.

- You look like a Kaffir to me.

- Her father was Dutch,

like mine.

- You
understand, Jacob.

It's going to be difficult.

- Stewart, what are you
talking to these people for?

- Calm down.

- You
keep serving blacks

and we'll kill the lot of them.

- Ma'am, it would be safer
for you to leave now.

You don't have to pay for the--

- I haven't finished
my coffee yet, mister?

- Williams.

Jacob Williams.

- I'm Madeline Smith.

- You run the post office.

- Well, you come in it.

10 a.m. every
Tuesday and Friday.

You're Amina's business
partner, aren't you?

- Ah, well, no,

I just work for Amina.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot.

Partnership would be
illegal, wouldn't it?

Thank you, for shielding
me from the police.

- Would you excuse me?

What is it?

- My grandmother.

- We'll get a new
glass, a new frame.

Are you okay?

- And you?

- I'm not so old that
I can't dive for cover.

- Not to mention flirt
with the customers.

- Milk.

Come in here and get
ready for school,

both of you!

- Thank God we are moving
out in a couple of months.

Before the next one comes.

- Say goodbye to papa.

- Okay, Sam, Yasmin, upstairs.

Go, brush your teeth,
get your books.

Good girl.

Off.

- He said yes.

We can go.

- Where?

- Out for lunch to
the Location Cafe.

I can't believe our husbands
are letting us out of here.

Come on, Miriam.

Get dressed.

- Good morning!

I'm so sorry.

Amina, I'm sorry.

- Okay, thank you, Doris.

Please, leave it.

- They have staff to do that.

- Good morning, ladies.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

- Our special today
is lamb bredie

and I have some nice
fresh koeksisters.

- What are koeksisters?

- It's a South African delicacy.

A fried doughnut with
syrup and coconut.

- Here, try one.

See if you like it.

- It's delicious.

- Good.

I'll send some
over and I promise

I'll try not to drop
them this time.

- She thinks a lot of herself.

- Maybe she should.

She owns a business
and she's one of us.

- No, she's not.

Where do you see any of our
girls looking like that?

- Like what?

- Are you blind?

Like a man.

- Maybe it's easier
to work in trousers.

- Daddy, is it far?

- I told you, Delhof's
in the country.

You'll like it there.

- Will we have a house
there like our old one?

- We'll get a much bigger
and better than the old one.

- With a big shop underneath.

- Who'll work in it?

- I will and your mother

and we'll have a boy to help us.

And we'll have a night watchman
to guard the place at night.

Shall we leave?

We'll need to work
hard, that's all.

- She would've
been proud of you.

- Hello, Bhai.

- Mrs. Benjamin is
making some tea.

She says you should
go and help her.

- How hard is it to make tea?

- Here.

It will give you some energy.

Are you okay?

Shall I call her?

- No.

No, I'm okay.

- Going already?

- Yes, I need to go to the shop.

- Don't worry about it.

Your sister-in-law's there.

Here, love.

You have a nice cup of tea.

- Thank you, Mrs. Benjamin.

- He's not one for
a chat, is he?

- No, he's not.

- There's nobody here.

I don't know who you think
is going to come flooding in

to buy groceries at
this time of day.

Or any time.

Where's the boy?

- Robert?

He's making deliveries.

He'll be back.

- Later?

- What are you doing?

- Has it been so long that
you don't even remember?

I suppose she doesn't
like you to touch her

when she's pregnant.

You come to Cape
Town once a week.

Come and see me.

- Sit down.

So what do you do after school?

- Homework.

- Good, good.

Do it then.

- I don't have any homework.

- Why not?

- She's only five.

She doesn't get homework
until big school.

- Hello, mister husband.

Or should I say mister father?

- Is it a boy?

- What a question!

You have a beautiful baby girl.

- My son!

I have traveled so
long to see you.

All these Africans.

That's the problem
with this country.

Too many black people.

You should come home my son,

it is a better life.

How will Amina find a
good husband here?

- There are plenty of
families when she's ready.

- Of course she's ready.

Where is she anyway?

- She's work--

She couldn't come.

- Working?

Did you say she's working?

Where is she working?

- Cape Town.

- The girl needs
to be brought back

to a decent way of living.

Why is she working?

What is she doing?

She must mix more.

I know a family.

The Alis.

Do you know them?

- Yes.
- Invite them for dinner,

on Sunday.

- Your son never lets
us invite anyone.

- Amina will never come.

- It is Amina's duty to
be where we tell her.

She will come.

- Amina, you're late.

They're here already.

Hurry up inside.

- Who's here?

- Where are you going?

- Inside?

- Like this?

- Like this.

Mum, this is who I am.

What else do you
want me to wear?

I'll help you serve the food.

- I don't see why people say
that our girls are too modern.

They may want to
go out for a while

and find out things
for themselves.

But I think our girls
always find it best to stay

at home in the end.

- Doesn't
Amina work anymore then?

-
Only now and then.

- But what about the caf--

- Why isn't anybody eating?

Things have been so busy
at the garage lately.

I don't have time to
stop for one minute.

Sometimes I wish Amina
was helping me again.

- And how many children
would you like, Amina?

- Oh, I don't know.

I suppose two or
three would be nice.

- Do you want only boys?

- What would make you
think I'd want boys at all?

- What rubbish!

Everybody wants a boy.

Everybody!

- Well, I'm not everybody.

And I wouldn't care if
I had a boy or a girl

as long as the child
was healthy and happy.

Nothing else really
matters, does it?

- I think she's right.

- I think it's time for dessert.

- We're going to Cape
Town on the weekend.

- All of us?

- Do you remember
when this came?

- Two weeks ago.

- It's from my sister, Rehmat.

- The one in Paris?

- Who told you that?

- Farah.

- She's coming with her husband.

I'm going to go to sleep.

You watch the shop.

- Farah, come and help me here!

They'll be here any minute now.

And you know how
particular Omar is.

- Not as much as
he likes to think.

- They're here!

- I'm cooking!

- Bhabhi.

- Well, where is she?

- She's gone to the
hotel to meet James.

- That's a stupid thing to do.

Are they trying to get caught?

They shouldn't even be here.

- He's father's dying.

- So what?

He'll be dead in a week
and they'll be in jail.

Do they think the police care?

- Which hotel is he staying at?

- At The Royal.

If you can believe it.

I don't know who
they think they are.

- And this is my
other sister-in-law.

- This is Miriam.

- Hello.

It took me a while
to get used to it.

- Paris must be such a
nightmare to get used to.

- I meant that it
wasn't home, at first,

for either of us.

But then I realized that there
were no gossiping neighbors,

no list of rules,

no need to stay home
if I wanted to work.

- We were very sorry to hear
about your father's illness.

- He gave us his
blessing, finally.

I suppose death can give
you a different perspective

on what's important.

And now eating here
with all of you and,

there's a time that
seemed impossible.

- Aren't you afraid

of what could happen
if you get caught?

- My husband is an idealist.

- We have no time for
idealists these days.

We have to be practical.

Get what we can whenever we can.

- You know you look, my husband
and you, you could be twins.

- We are twins.

- Why couldn't you tell me?

- Men never tell you anything.

- Miriam, why don't
we get my brother

to take us to the Location Cafe?

I used to sneak out and
go over there all the time

on my school breaks.

- I should stay and help.

- Bhabhi, you go, I'll
take care of the children.

Farah can make us tea.

- Is that the Harjan girl?

She's young and she
owns this place, huh?

- With a partner.

- Imagine at her age,

to be the partner of a business
and a good business too.

- Sunday is
always her busiest day.

- I think she's done well
for one of our girls.

- So do I.

- She's not totally
one of our girls.

Have you ever seen one
of our girls with such,

with such curly hair?

- Are you saying that
she's part black?

- That's her grandmother, Begum.

The child is Amina's mother.

There was a big scandal.

She messed around
with the Africans.

- Should I pretend
to be horrified?

You know, plenty
of white people,

including some of his family,
will sit there one day,

just like you, all
self-righteous,

and accuse my children
of being half-Indian.

- That's not the same thing.

- It's exactly the same thing.

How can you live here, Omar?

How can you bear to
be in this place?

- South Africa is my home.

- You wanted ten pence
worth, here we are.

I'd like to serve someone
over here, please.

- I love South Africa.

- What do you love about it?

- The freedom, the space.

It's not like India.

- No, it's not.

It's much worse.

And God help anyone who
tries to fight it.

- I fight it.

And I think you
probably did too.

- I fought so hard,

I had to leave with
bruises on my face.

- Do you still like koeksisters?

- Yes, I do.

- And have you had any
since that were better?

- Never.

- Good.

I'll send some over,
they're frying now.

- Amina, this gentleman
here is looking for someone

to help build him a garden.

You want it or know
someone who would?

- I want a vegetable
garden behind my house,

back at the shop.

- I can do it.

- I want a big space.

I need enough to sell,
not just to eat.

- If you want me
to do it, I can.

- Can you come early?

- How about seven?

♪ When we're far apart ♪

♪ Don't you know
I'll close my eyes ♪

♪ And I'll see you ♪

♪ With my heart ♪

- Hello.

That's the patch I'd
like you to do.

- Mummy, why is she
wearing trousers?

- Because she works outside.

- Don't
forget their lunch.

- Thank you, Robert.

Robert, give the young
lady some chapatis

and some tea when
she starts working,

and there's fig jam
in the fridge, yeah?

Come.

- Good morning.

- Hello.

Say hello to the lady.

Hello, Ma'am.

- Come on.

Bye!

I brought you some food.

- Thank you.

It smells delicious.

I wish I could cook so well.

But you work in a cafe.

- All Jacob's recipes.

- Well, then you should learn.

- So my mother tells me.

- Your mother's right.

Will you do when
you get married?

- I don't know, I
suppose I'll have to find

someone who can cook.

Have you eaten?

Why don't you join me?

- I have to mind the shop.

- I just want to
know you better.

- I'm just a housewife
and a mother.

- And doesn't a
housewife have thoughts

and feelings and wishes,

just like everyone else?

- You were the first person
to smile at me at the cafe

in eight days.

I count it!

What's this?

- Poetry.

- I can't take it.

- Don't you like reading?

- I love reading.

I mean I used to.

I used to read a lot.

- Please, keep it then.

- Stay for dinner?

- I should get going.

- No, you can't drive at night.

- I'll be fine.

- No, maybe in town but here,

the roads are just tracks.

Stay.

If you're going to stay,
you should come inside.

- Your husband's not back yet?

- He works late in Cape Town.

Usually he stays
at his sister in,

brother's place.

- The daal was delicious.

- Do you want some more?

- No, I would like
to clean up though.

- There's hot water in
the bathroom, come.

- What are you doing?

- I couldn't sleep.

- Me neither.

- Let me get you some tea.

- I'll make the tea, Miriam.

Miriam is always getting
the tea for everyone.

Tell me.

Has anyone ever
looked after you?

When did you come
to South Africa?

- Seven years ago
after I got married.

- Me too.

- Our first evening off
of a boat from India

and we walk straight into
the Indian congress protest.

There were sticks and
guns and policemen.

I was,

terrified.

- I was there.

Protesting The Ghetto Bill.

I thought we could overthrow
the government in two weeks.

- Is there anything
that you don't do?

- I have to give people
something to talk about.

- Do you ever think
about getting married

and having children instead?

- Yeah, it's that word
instead I don't like.

Why can't a woman do
both if she wants to?

- It's not usual.

- No.

But neither am I and
neither are you.

- Where did you learn
to think like this?

- My grandmother.

My mother's mother.

- The
picture in the cafe?

- She lived here once before
she was sent back to India.

You must have heard someone's
version of the story.

- There's always gossip.

Tell me the story.

The real story, if
you don't mind.

- I'd like to tell you.

I think you'd understand
why my grandmother

was so important to me.

- What happened to her?

- She was 19,

with one child already.

And the shame and
dishonor of being raped,

she tried to hide it.

But she became pregnant.

As soon as the baby was born,

my mother,

they realized it
wasn't her husband's.

- What did they do to her?

- Mommy!

Mommy!

- They put her
on a train to Durban,

to get a boat to Bombay.

- Mommy!

- Moving on.

Hold him out so I can kiss him.

Please, please.

- No!

No!

No, stop!

Stop the train!

No!

No, stop, no!

No, no, no!

- I can't imagine losing
a child like that.

- It broke her.

She didn't have one choice
to make her whole life.

And for as long as
I can remember,

she always warned be
about the dangers

of being oppressed
in a marriage.

- Is that why you
haven't gotten married?

- That's not the only reason.

Miriam?

- Yes?

- Nothing.

You should go, the
baby needs you.

- Sam?

Yasmin!

- Auntie Amina was
showing us the garden.

- Yeah.

Are you ready for school?

Did you eat?

- Auntie Amina gave
us some breakfast.

- Here we go.

Okay.

I've never imagined
I'd be so domesticated.

- I've never imagined
anything else.

- Okay, kids.

You ready for school?

Come on.

Have a good day!

- Can I make you some breakfast?

- Perhaps later.

I'm going to start work.

I hope I didn't worry you

with all my strange ideas
and stories last night.

- No, you made me think

and that's supposed
to be a good thing.

Isn't it?

- That depends on who you ask.

- What are you doing?

- Reading.

- I can see that.

Reading what?

- Poetry.

- Poetry.

At this time of night?

I'm tired.

I was busy in Cape Town today.

- With her?

- What did you say?

- Nothing.

- Love bade me welcome,

yet my soul drew back.

Guilty of dust and sin.

- But quick-eyed love,

observing me grow slack
from my first entrance in,

drew nearer to me,
sweetly questioning

if I lacked anything.

A guest, I answered,
worthy to be here.

Love said, you shall be he.

- Afternoon.

We need to ask you
some questions.

- My husband is not
here, he just left.

- Yeah, we must've
just missed him.

- Robert, get these
gentlemen a drink.

- It's a good shop
you have here.

- Thank you.

- Is your sister-in-law here?

- My brother-in-law and
his wife stay in town.

- We're looking for
Rehmat Winston.

And we know she's
staying with you.

- They're not here.

- So you know where they are.

Listen.

You'll be in a pile of
shit if you help them.

- What have they done?

- Have you heard
of the Prohibition

of Mixed Marriages Act of 1949?

It's there for a reason.

To stop this depravity.

It's against nature what
these people are doing.

Home from school.

- No, you can't.

- Yes, we can.

They may be withholding
valuable information.

- No!

No, please!

- Have you ever been to a
police station, young lady?

- Mommy, where are we going?

- Stop!

No!

- We'll bring them back later,

or tomorrow, whenever
we get time.

- No, I'll
tell you where they are!

- Too late!

So, where are they?

Where are they?

- In Cape Town.

At my brother-in-law's.

You know, if you're
lying, I'll beat you

and your children and your baby!

- I need help.

The police are after us.

- We can't.

- Amina, you have to.

- We can't help you.

I'm sorry.

- Please, please, sit.

- I understand, it's just.

I don't know what to do.

- If we helped you in
front of the customers,

someone would break when the
police start threatening.

- Are you sure?

Thank you for this, I.

- You were supposed to tell us.

- In front of my husband?

Was I supposed to tell it

while she could hear
me, hiding upstairs?

What kind of state police
don't even search the house?

- Where are they now?

- Some nice clothes.

French labels.

- We'll find them.

You'll be the next,
for helping them.

- I'm not stupid.

But there is someone
around here who is.

And it won't be the first time

she's in trouble
with the two of you.

- Stop that bloody noise!

- Jacob.

- Sergeant?

- We're looking for
an Indian woman.

- Indians is all we get in here.

But you're welcome to
have a look around.

- Where's Amina?

- She's having a nap.

She'll be taking over
from me shortly.

I'm not as young
as I used to be.

- I know she's here.

- Who?

- Open this up!

Go, go, go!

Open it!

What's all that?

- Stock for the cafe.

That's why I keep it locked.

Those Kaffirs would
steal anything.

- Tell me where she is!

- I really don't know
who you're talking about.

You and I both know

that I've had some women in
here, but this time even I--

- Stinking queer!

- Hey.

Yours is the only place in town

where Kaffir workers
eat alongside Indians.

You get away with it.

- Yes.

- I could've closed you
down anytime, couldn't I?

- Yes.

- So?

Was she here?

- No.

- Where is she?

- I really don't know.

I'm sorry.

- Who's that?

- If it's the police, then
I'll deal with them this time.

- Someone's here.

- My goddamn truck.

- What happened?

- My lights have gone.

Hit a bloody Kaffir
walking in the yard pulling

right in my way.

Thought it was just
one side he caught

but both my lights have gone.

- We might have one of those.

Miriam.

- Thanks.

- Ah,
that's the right one.

- How is he?

- Who?

- The Kaffir, how is he?

- Dead, I hope.

- Just look at it.

Both lights.

- That should fit.

- You reckon?

- Just try it.

- Come on, light it!

One light will get me up.

- Are you okay?

- I'm fine.

- Where are you?

I can help.

Let me help you.

- I don't need your help!

I don't need your help.

- Where were you?

- I thought I left
the washing out.

- Your place is here with me.

Not with those Kaffirs.

- Oh, you found them!

- Books, madam.

You forgot them?

- Yes, until somebody
reminded me.

Robert, take this.

Take it to the post office.

- Here you are.

Good morning, Jacob.

- Good
morning, Madeline.

- Warm out today, isn't it?

- You can say that again.

Hey, boy.

Get me some water.

Go on!

You understand English, do you?

There's a jug over there.

- Listen, I'm the employee here

and I'll get you the water

if you are incapable
of getting it yourself.

- What's the matter
with you, lady?

- That will be six
pence for the stamps.

- All of us here are
losing our dignity

as human beings in
this place, aren't we?

- Some of us more
quickly than others.

- Oh, no.

Don't you believe
that for a second.

It's men like him
who lose the most.

- Perhaps.

- I've got a parcel
here for you.

Or rather for the
young Miss Harjan.

Here, there's no other post.

- There's no return address.

- No.

Perhaps it's from a
secret paramour.

- I'd better get back.

I'll see you soon.

- Jacob.

Be sure that you do.

- This came for you today.

Thank you.

- It's not my
mother's handwriting.

- She's not
gonna work all the time.

- This is still so difficult
because he's too young.

- What are you doing?

- It's the Alis.

They've come to
give their reply.

- Even my mother must
realize it's going to be no.

- Won't
you have some tea?

- Send that girl to me at once!

- Who, Amina?

- Of course.

She needs discipline now.

Send me the doctor.

I'm dying.

- She'll be fine.

Ma, just.

Just take her some tea.

- But she's dying.

- She's been claiming an
imminent death for 30 years.

Please, just,

take her some tea.

- Ma.

Ma!

Dinner is ready.

Ma, your tea must be ice cold.

- I don't have time to go
driving around the countryside

for some old woman
we didn't even know.

That family don't
mix with any of us.

Yet, when it suits them,

they expect all of us
to just come running.

- They don't expect it.

- I don't owe those
people anything!

- Yes, you do.

Amina Harjan saved your sister.

After Farah betrayed her.

- Auntie, is Amina here?

I'd like to offer
my condolences.

- She's in the next room.

- Okay.

- Please see if
she will join us.

- I'm reading your book.

- I'd forgotten I even had them.

- I didn't know you
knew my parents.

- I don't.

We came to see you.

- The murderess?

Apparently my work
and my trousers

caused the heart attack.

I can't tell whether you
approve of my clothes or not.

- They're nice.

- It's a nice outfit.

- I mean that you
look nice in it.

- So you prefer me in
traditional clothes?

- No.

You look very nice in this

but you don't look
like yourself.

- I don't feel like myself.

But I have to please
a person who,

God rest her soul, is
not even able to see me.

- It sounds silly when
you put it like that.

- It is silly.

But no one else
seems to think so.

- Does it matter
what people think?

- Doesn't it?

Why did you get married?

Did you fall in love and know
you wanted to be with him

for the rest of your life?

- No.

He saw me a few
times and proposed

and my family accepted.

And that's what you
want to hear, isn't it?

That it never occurred
to me to question it.

- It occurs to me
to question it.

- I know.

- What happened to your face?

- Nothing.

Your mother wants to
see you downstairs.

My husband wants to see you too.

To thank you.

- For what?

- For Rehmat.

- Anyone would've done the same.

- I didn't.

- Did they hurt you?

The police?

- They were taking
my children away.

- Then you did the right thing.

Come.

I want to change back
into my own clothes.

- Why should you take that risk?

- Because
I hate apartheid.

Because I hate
aggressive policemen.

- I wish I could
be more like you.

- Be careful what you wish for,

Miriam.

Jacob?

I have an idea.

- You haven't had a bad one yet.

What is it?

- Indian food.

All sorts of things.

Aamosas, biryanis.

- Okay.

But you know our
girls don't know

the first thing about making
a proper Indian curry.

So who's gonna do the cooking?

- Don't worry.

I've already thought of that.

- Where you just
passing through?

- No offense to you.

There down, but I.

- It's okay.

- But I don't think anybody
just passes through.

I came to see you.

- Will you have some tea?

A cold drink?

- I want to talk to you.

About the cafe.

We're thinking about
something new, Indian food.

Maybe a few days a week.

- It's a good idea.

- I want you to
cook for the cafe.

- Me?

You haven't even had my cooking.

- I ate here, remember?

- Potato curry and daal.

Besides, I couldn't do it.

- Why not?

- Because I have
to take care of the shop.

- We'd pay you well.

- My children.

- Okay, then we'll make it one
morning a week to start with.

- My husband wouldn't like it.

- I'm offering the job to you,

not your husband.

You surprise me.

I thought you had a
fearless streak.

- How would you know

whether I have a
fearless streak or not?

- Wasn't it you who went out

in the middle of the
night to help an African

who was hit by a car?

- How could you know?

There were only two people.

Myself and my husband.

- Three.

I know this government
would like us to think

that they're savages,

but Africans can speak
as well as we can.

- Has it been busy?

- No.

- I came to see if Miriam
would cook for the cafe.

- What did you say?

- I said that I have to mind
the shop and the children.

- My wife doesn't need to work.

- Look, I'm sorry it's
not a question of need.

- No!

My wife doesn't
know how to drive.

I've told her time and
again to take lessons,

but she doesn't want to.

If only she had.

- Oh, but I teach
driving myself.

Miriam, if you want me to come
for a couple of hours a week,

I'd be happy to come teach you.

- Thank you.

Yes, I'd like that.

My husband has been telling me

I should learn how to
drive for some time now.

- Good, then it's settled.

I'll see you next week.

- Why did you do that?

You know eggs are expensive.

- You have a long
day in Cape Town.

- I maybe staying the night.

- You're early.

Very early.

What happened?

- The market's closed.

- Closed?

Why closed?

- Day of action by the blacks.

- Bloody blacks.

- Farah?

Farah?

- Bhai?

Everything okay?

- My God.

Bhai.

Were you just going to
surprise us like this?

How good to see you.

How did you know Sadru was back?

- I've finished early today

so I thought I'd stop
in to say hello.

- I also finished early today.

The demonstration.

Family okay?

- Are you ready for me?

- Who else is going to
teach me how to drive?

- Okay, let's start
with the pedals first.

This is the gas pedal,
the accelerator,

and this is the--

- Break.

- Right, and this is the--

- Clutch.

- Do you know how to drive?

- No, why would I ask for
lessons if I knew how to drive?

- I don't know.

Maybe you wanted to see me.

- I don't know how to drive.

But my husband showed
me all the pedals once

when he tried to teach
me how to learn.

There's only three, so
it's not difficult.

- Do you know the gears too?

- No.

- I'll show you.

- Is madam inside?

- No, she's in the
driving lesson, sir.

- There you are.

See?

- Did he see us?

- No.

We were having a driving lesson.

- I'm not finished yet.

- Get out of the truck.

- Miriam, we'll
finish another time.

How was your day?

- What?

- How was your day?

- Not good.

- Sorry to hear that.

But things could get better.

- I want to talk to you.

- Where's Robert?

- Inside probably.

I was angry with him earlier.

- Why are you angry
with all of us?

I should be angry with you.

- It's finished.

I won't be seeing her anymore.

- Why did you do it, Omar?

- I don't know.

- There's mummy!

I'll race you!

- You hurt me.

- Mummy, mummy!

- Come, come, come!

Go, go, go, go, go!

- It won't be a
stylish marriage,

we can't afford a carriage.

I've asked Madeline to
have dinner with me.

She accepted.

- Do you know what you're doing?

- I believe I do, yes.

- Where will you
take her for dinner?

- I'm not fit to take
her anywhere, am I?

Only good enough to
serve her a plate of food

but not to sit and eat with her.

- You could bring her here.

- I'll think of something.

I have lived my entire life
in this place by their rules.

I do not want to end my
life alone because of them.

- I know.

I know but lately
I've been wondering

whether it's worth going
after certain people,

no matter how strongly
you feel about them.

- You more than anyone has
taught me that it is worth it.

Don't start changing now, Amina.

- Hello.

Hello, Robert.

- Miss.

- Are you ready?

- Robert?

Take care of the shop please.

You didn't come to give
me a driving lesson.

Did you?

Why did you come?

I can't.

I'm married.

And you're a woman.

- Those are not good reasons.

- They are my reasons
and they matter to me.

- Don't you care for me?

- Of course I care for you.

Amina, please.

- Miriam.

What am I doing to you?

What am I doing to you?

- Every time I look at you,

I want you to stay forever.

- Will you do something for me?

Close your eyes.

You can trust me.

- I'm not afraid of you.

- Will you just imagine,

just for now,

just for one brief moment,

that nothing exists
except for you and me?

You need to go to her.

- No.

- What happens now?

Do these driving
lessons just continue?

Come away with me.

- I have three children,

who I'll never leave.

- I would never ask you
to leave the children.

We could.

We could move.

We could move away
from him, Miriam

and I will look after
you and the children.

- Amina.

Amina, please.

- Miriam, I know.

I know that you think I don't
know what I'm talking about,

but I've lived this way, Miriam.

I've lived my own
way my whole life,

and it can be done!

- Amina.
- It can be done, Miriam.

- Amina.

Don't for me.

- Ah, Jacob!

- Do you need a hand?

- If you wouldn't mind, I'm
struggling with this lock.

- Here, let me do it.

- Hello.

- Hello?

- Police here, ma'am.

- Post-mistress here, sir.

- Are you alright?

I was driving by and
I saw the door ajar.

- Oh, I'm fine, thank you.

Just locking up.

- Sorry to trouble you.

- No trouble.

- Who's there?

- This is Jacob.

- The section where you are
standing is for whites only.

- He was just
helping me lock up.

- He shouldn't be there.

Who is he anyway?

- He's my driver.

- Why doesn't your
driver keep the keys?

- 'Cause I prefer to
keep them myself.

- Yeah, I know what you mean.

Better to be safe than sorry.

- Quite.

- I thought I told you
not to disturb me!

- Yes, but that was when
you were six years old, no?

- Dad.

I'm sorry, I thought that.

You come.

I thought that you were
Doris or one of the girls.

- Just me.

- Can I get you
something to eat?

Some tea?

- No, no, I'm fine.

No, we just we haven't
heard from you

for three weeks and your.

So your mother's worried
and I just came to check

to see you're okay.

- I'm fine.

- Good.

- Things have been.

It's hard to explain.

- No need.

You see, people like to
make sure your mother and I

know everything that
is happening with you.

They wouldn't like
us to miss out.

Only this time people are,

Amina, people are talking
about her, not just you.

They know her as well.

- They have no right.

It's only because
she's friends with me

that they make any assumptions.

Don't people have
anything better to do?

- No, they don't.

That's why I try to avoid them.

- Jacob, I'm so terribly
sorry about what happened.

I'm ashamed to say
that I was afraid

of that young policeman

and what he might do
to you if he suspected.

- It's alright.

Probably they'd thrown me
in jail if they'd guessed.

- Jacob, come inside.

I'll make us some supper.

- I can't.

I hope you understand.

- Yes, I understand.

I am sorry.

I want to drive you home.

- No.

Goodbye, Madeline.

- Goodbye, Jacob.

Goodbye.

- So, you're running away?

- No, I just need some time,

I just need some time
away to think, dad.

- Do you need money?

- No.

Thank you.

- You shouldn't go.

How will she know
where to find you?

- What a day.

Did you have your
driving lesson today?

- No.

- Good.

That's over then.

- No.

I have to learn how to
drive if I'm going to work.

- You work here.

- And I will still work here.

And I will work at the cafe
for two mornings a week.

- You don't need to work.

- I do.

It's just for two mornings,

just let me learn how to drive.

- You will not be
my wife and work!

- Do you wanna divorce me?

What about the children?

What is it, Omar?

Tell me what you're thinking.

- Mummy!

- It's okay.

It's alright, my love.

Everything's okay,
go back to sleep.

It's alright.

- I don't like it.

If I don't like it,
that should be enough.

- It's not enough.

It never has been.

I just didn't know what
to tell you until now.

No!

You'll have to find a better
way of speaking to me.

- Not again.

- I may still need some lessons.

- You drove all the
way from Delhof?

- Do you still
have that vacancy?

- Two days a week?

- If it works out, even more.

- Come on then.

- I'm Miriam.
