I was supposed to... be taken...

He told me
that you'd be wasted.
[panting] Who told you that?
For 300 dollars,
I didn't ask any questions.
Not like
I don't need the money anyway.
[woman] He told me
to give you the phone.
He said he's going to call it.
Wait, who's gonna call me?
Wait.
Just put the earpiece on.
Wait! Who's gonna call me?

Trust me, you'll end up rotting

There's a colorful shop

You're not allowed to call out.
Listen,
I have a phone call to make
that has nothing to do with you
or this situation.
You let me do that,
then we talk.
[man on phone]
Ah, your phone call.
I know why you're here.
[woman sighs]
What makes you think
she wants to talk to you?
-Okay, what do you want with me?
- Five missions.
You do what I say,
when I say it.
Finish those missions before
your chronometer hits zero ...
-[cell phone chimes]
-... and you live,
take longer and you die.
Simple as that.
[arcade music warbles]
This is about my client's money.
There's no need for this.
There's no need.
I'm getting it out
of the account.
[man on phone]
Are you done?
Inside pocket.
I'm the one giving you money.
But that's for later.
You have a little
over nine hours.
One false step,
another wink at the police,
try using another phone,
and it ends for you.
[in Wolof]
[in English] Or...
I'll turn myself over
to the cops.
[man on phone] Go ahead.
If I'm lying,
you end up in jail
for assaulting two officers.
If I'm telling the truth...
you die.
I want you to prove to me
what a special person you are.
You, my friend,
are the beginning
of something great.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick ...
Okay. Okay.
[tense music]
Okay. I understand.
I do what you ask,
no one gets hurt, and I live.
[man on phone]
That's the deal.
Now give your watch
to the owner of the shop.
He'll get you to the beach.

I just want to tell you,
what a wonderful job
you're doing.
Mission number two,
give the box to a man named ...

You have the same earpiece.
Who are you?

What the hell was that for?
-[crowd laughs]
-[Onaye] Oh.
I guess the phone
didn't tell you.
Well, b*mb number two,
meet b*mb number one.
[groans]
Times are identical.
I remember getting off
the plane.
After that... nothing.
Same with you?
What do you do?
Why?
Why?
Because we both have bombs
strapped to our f*cking chests.
I thought I was dealing
with someone I'd pissed off.
But now that you're
in the picture,
I'm trying to figure out
what the connection is,
you f*cking mongrel.
[birds squawking]
[One] f*ck.
[cell phone rings, vibrates]
[man on phone]
What better candidates
than a man whose wealth
and a man whose violence
defines them as much
as the country they represent?
Mission number three,
the Green House.
Onaye helped me. I help him.
You belong to him
until the mission is done.
[Muslim prayer echoes]
[Onaye]
This is Cherif, our leader.
What's inside this box
belongs to him.
And this contains the location
of the Green House.
So, what's the Green House?
A secret hideout
where Cherif
is being held hostage.
Hostage?
What are we talking about here?
We're talking about an imam,
who didn't like what
these people does and represent.
So, they kidnapped him.
There's a drug deal in place.
You are the buyers,
and that will be your occasion
to take Cherif out.
Job done,
then mission accomplished.
No, it's not my job.
Guys, I'll take you there.
You get him out,
and your mission is done.
[Two] I don't give a sh*t.
Let's just get it done.
No, I'm not risking my a*s
on a suicide mission
for this f*cking as*h*le.
[cell phone rings, vibrates]
[man on phone]
This is getting fun.
You two are now partners.
If one of you continues on
and the other doesn't,
you both blow up.
Simple as that.
- Good luck, gentlemen.
-[drone whirring]
[suspenseful music]
We need to find
a way out of this
-before we all get k*lled.
-f*ck off!
[cheerful ringtone plays]
[suspenseful music resumes]
[man on phone]
What a view, right?
Welcome to the land of Barka.
There was a time when
the street kids of this country
had no one to represent them.
Until a young hero
came along to unite them all.
Much like Jack
in The Lord of the Flies.
They hate adults.
They call this place
the Green House.
I don't really know why.
[rebel whoops]
[man on phone]
But don't be fooled,
these kids are much smarter
than the two of you might think.

How do you know m*ssile?

How do you know he sent us?
Because he always sends
foreigners here.
Well, we're here.
So, what do you want?
Cocaine?
Fenta?
Weed?
Mm, meth?
[snickers] What's up with him?
Hey, he's okay.
He's my bodyguard.
He is a little slow sometimes.
Jerk, as*h*le, whatever word
you have for it here,
but, uh... he's... he's fine.
Let me handle it, okay?
Give me a second? All right.
Hey, come on. Let's go.
Let's go on a walk.
[One] Yeah, you got it.
I know how to deal
with people like this.
You don't have a f*cking clue.
Stop being a d*ck.
You got something better?
Yeah, I just f*cking punch
this clown,
we find the f*cking Cherif guy,
whatever the f*ck his name is.
Listen, let me do my thing.
If it doesn't work,
you do yours.
-Jesus Christ.
-Okay? Okay?
[footsteps approach]
[mutters] f*ck.
Let's do business.
Let's have a drink first.

You let us go right now

I can see the timer, as*h*le.
This piece of sh*t of Onaye.
He really thought
he could play us?
I'll give you money.
These CFAs?
Okay, I'll wire you money.
-Hey.
-Come on, don't even, man.
-Hey, hey!
-Don't even f*ck--

I can make you rich.

Tonight was cool, man.
[in Wolof]
[in English] Okay, time to go.
Can you untie my friend now?
[indistinct shouting]
f*ck!
I saved your life.
What did you do?
I wired that as*h*le
a million dollars
from a very dangerous
person's account.
If I make it out of this alive,
I'm still a dead man.
Yeah, do you understand

You're welcome.

Do you know what we had
to go through to get him out?
Oh, yeah, I f*cking know.
Following orders from the man
in the sky like all of us, huh?
-What?
-Ngor Village.
-Ngor Village! Ngor Village!
-The bus.
We were hired to drug you
before putting those things
on you.
In exchange, he gave you to us
to free my father.
[Cherif in Wolof]
[in English] Hey! We risked
our asses to get him out!
He sent you for a mission. It's
to get me out, not to save me.

I neutralized the phone.
He can't hear us.
[Two] So, India...
What do you think?
[India] I need a closer look.
Hello, pretty eyes.

-[One] What?
Did this person also tell you
it's a f*cking Nzinga?
-A... a what?
-[banging]
[in Hebrew]
[in English]
Congolese. Extremely rare.
The last ones we know about
were used in the '90s
by militia groups.
[rock music plays]
[India] It's a chemical compound
created by Mobutu's engineers
filled with EPX-2.
It was first created
for rocket fuel...
but the sh*t was too unstable.
Then it was forgotten about
and re-developed
as an expl*sive.
[India] Whatever it is he wants,
he decided to make some noise.
[splatters]
[Two] Can it be disarmed?
Possibly.
Is that a good "possibly"?
[India]
Don't trust everything you hear.
It could easily be someone
using a voice scrambler.
He could be anyone,
he could be a seven-year-old boy
from Nigeria.
He could be a she.
So these are timed to go off
when the chronometers
get to zero.
He is monitoring you by GPS.
So, I can't bring you
to my guys.
[One] I don't understand
what's going on here.
-Who are you?
-I'm a... friend of your friend.
But he's not my friend.
How do you two know each other?
Does he always ask
this many questions?
[Two] Yeah, unfortunately.
-Thank you.
-Hey, uh, guys?
We gotta get going.
[India] He hasn't noticed yet.
So, let's keep using
the kid's phone, like before.
Hey.
I really need
to make a phone call.
A phone...
Are you f*cking serious?
Please, it's important.
Make it quick.
[keypad beeps]
[India] Is it still in the flat?
[Two] Yeah.
[India] You sure they're not
after the money?
[Two] What do you think?

This is special equipment.

not just a random psycho.

Hope to see you again.
Yeah, me too.
[India speaking Hebrew]
[in English] Who is she?
Ah, an engineer

Don't worry about it.

[cell phone chimes]
No.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
[man on phone]
Now that you're both focused,
you have two more missions.
One more misstep
and I blow up anything
or anyone you care about.
Is that clear?
I want to hear
that you understand!
Yes.
[man on phone]
Mission number four
is a rather charming man
named Daniel.
There's a red vintage automobile
parked at your location.
Keys are in it.
Daniel will be waiting for you
at the Colobane bus stop,
in front of the hospital.
You can't miss him.
I'll be monitoring
your progress.
And... try to have a good time.
[ominous music]
[ominous music continues]
[One] What did he send you?
[Two] It's done.
Are you okay?
[Two] I got f*cked over.
Is she okay?
[India] Momo is on it.
Your papers will be ready
in three days.
[India] See you in Dakar.
[Two] You're the only thing
I have left.
[beeps]
[pensive music]
[crow caws]
[cell phone chimes]
He sent me the f*cking address
where all my money is.
That's what he sent me.
[engine revs]
[Two] What's he got on you?
I met a woman here...
18 years ago on a business trip.
[melancholy music]
She died two weeks ago.
That's when I found out
I have a daughter here.
[timer ticking]
[beeps]
[line rings]
[cell phone ringing]
She'd be 17, I think.
I've never met her.
I searched the internet
for her, but...
all I have is a memorized
phone number.
He knows who she is.
[One] That's what he sent me.
[cell phone chimes]
All right, man.
Let's get this over with.
[man on phone] Tick-tock.
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
[car horn blares]
Gentlemen.
-[car door closes]
-I'm Daniel.
[timer ticking]
Yeah, we know.
What's next?
[Daniel] We've got time.
[One] For what?
For k*lling time.
["Welcome to Medina" plays]
[Daniel] Welcome to Medina.
[car horns honking]
[Daniel] Your Western Wiki
might describe this place
as the ancient most
populous area of Dakar.
The cultural center of the city.
["Welcome to Medina"
continues]
[Daniel] I call it home.
[cell phone chimes]
Be on your best behavior, boys.
People in this neighborhood
are very sensitive.
Well, that's too bad.
I was looking forward
to blowing something up.
["Welcome to Medina"
continues]
[kids yelling]
[chimes]
[chiming continues]
[goat bleats in distance]
[One] So, where are you from?
[Daniel] I'm from that place
that they signed
the Declaration of
Independence.
I used to teach history there.
Now I live here.
[man 1 in Wolof]
[in Wolof]
[in English] May I?
How do you know
the man on the phone?
Wait here.
[Daniel] Emmanuel!
Look at you!
You got big.
You're all dressed up! Wow!
Are you ready to go?
Come on, come on.
[bleats]
[Two] Oh, f*ck me.
This is Emmanuel.
You... you brought us here
for a f*cking goat?
He's not just any goat.
-Take him.
-No.
Take him.
[sighs]
Yeah, tie your hand around here.
There you go.
Hold his chin.
It makes him feel comfortable.
[scoffs]
That's right. Let's go.
-[bleats]
-That's good sh*t. That's good.
-[One] Okay, let's go, come on.
-[bleating continues]
Let's go.
Come on.
Emmanuel is the most famous ram
in Senegal.
He even has
his own social media following.
[upbeat music]
He's exceptional,
just like you guys.
So we're all supposed
to go f*ck a sheep now?
No, no, no, no, no. There's no--
none of that here.
I don't know where you're from.
No, he's coming with us.
Where?
[Daniel] You'll find out.
[Daniel in French]
[One in English] Easy, easy.
[Daniel in French]
[in English]
Emmanuel, we'll be right back.
[Emmanuel bleats]
What are we doing here?
We're getting you ready.
Ready for what?
For the party.
[rock music plays]
[Daniel in Wolof]
[speaking Wolof]
[in English] New outfits, huh?
New mission, new chapter.
[rock music continues]
[rock music intensifies]
Time's up.
[discordant music]
[Daniel]
So, what do you think, Emmanuel?
[Emmanuel bleats]
Do you think these boys
can walk the walk?
[Emmanuel bleats]
[Daniel]
Yeah, I know you're right.
[Daniel] Wait until you see
the chip I got for you.
You're a lucky fella.
[Daniel] She's gonna love you.
[Emmanuel bleats]
[One] How do you know him?
[Daniel]
We've actually never met.
[text beeps]
[One] Why trust him?
[Daniel]
Trust has nothing to do with it.
Listen, we're all born
with a ticking clock.
The main thing is...
is that our death
serves a greater purpose.
For many people here,
living can be
more painful than dying.
And what's this, uh...
greater purpose
for all the people
that have died today?
You think because
you saw a little death,
it makes you all of a sudden
more righteous?
Look around you.
Look at the conditions
these people are living in.
[Daniel] No jobs,
no money.
They have nothing.
Right?
And you people call it
a third-world country
so you can feel better
about your own
standard of living.
But look closer, my friends.
[pensive music]
This is a misery you created
and fed on for centuries
and it won't save you
from the truth.
The truth that these people
are the light.
Because they don't need
your appetite
for material wealth
to understand
the meaning of happiness.
[Daniel] You talk of people
dying, but, instead...
think about how you should
start living, my brothers.
From zero comes the one.
From the one come the million.
Rise and breathe, my friends.
Rise and breathe.
Because death isn't the end
when your life has meaning.
What you're going to accomplish
will start a fire so large
it will shake the order
of things to come.
And I couldn't be prouder
to be by your side
when it happens.
Right?
[knocks]
[Two] The guy on the phone...
What the hell
does he want with us?
[Emmanuel bleats]
[Daniel] He wants to release you
once you're done,
just like he told you.
[Emmanuel bleats]
How do you know?
Because I'm the one
that's gonna release you.
After my wedding.
-[Emmanuel bleats]
-[sighs]
-Our mission is your wedding?
-Your mission comes after.
For now, Emmanuel is my present
to my bride's family,
and you're gonna be my
witnesses.
-We're gonna be your what?
-[Emmanuel bleats]
You're gonna play your part
when I handle my business.
After...
I'll set you free.
[Emmanuel bleats]
Now, would you please
stop strangling my ram?
-Okay.
-[Daniel] Thank you.
[bleats]
-Mama!
-Daniel!
[laughs]
[Daniel]
This is a private ceremony.
[imam speaks in Wolof]
[Daniel in English]
So, I would like you to behave
in front of my bride's family.
[imam in Wolof]
[in English]
What does that mean?
[imam speaks in Wolof]
[Ladja in English]
Well, thanks for being here.
It's nice to meet
Daniel's friends.
Did he tell you
that he's the only American
to have obtained the right
to teach in a Koranic school?
I even asked Daniel if he's
gonna take me to Philadelphia.
Babe, you don't want to go
to America, believe me.
No? Why's that?
America?
The place that only took
a few centuries
to become worse than the empire
that spawned it?
The place that exterminated
all the original inhabitants?
The place that enslaved
the very people who built it?
And like a plague
of hateful intentions,
proceeds to destroy
and destabilize
the rest of the world?
This is your place?
This is not a country.
It's a disease.
[suspenseful music]
[Ladja] Well, now you understand
why his previous school
fired him.
Yeah, well,
I want to teach to enlighten
and liberate, not to control.
If you gentlemen
would excuse me,
I have some business
to attend to.
[One] Cut it.
[One] Okay.
[sharp snip]
[chimes]
[ticking]
[cell phone rings, vibrates]
[man on phone]
You've done very, very well.
Thank you.
Last mission.
Follow Daniel...
Let's go.
...to your freedom.
[melodic whistling]
[ticking]
[ominous music]

[keys jingling]
You can lose those.
[melodic whistling continues]
[birds squawking]
[tense music]
We've arrived.
-Right on time.
-[cell phone rings, vibrates]
[man on phone] I couldn't
have chosen two better soldiers.
These things aren't going off,
are they?
[man on phone]
That was never part of the plan.
[One] Then why is he here?
'Cause I'm going with you.
[man on phone]
Daniel is terminally ill.
He agreed to keep you here.
In exchange, I will take care
of his new bride
and the people
of his neighborhood
for the rest of their lives.
[beeps, distorted ticking]
[man on phone] I'm sorry.
f*ck this.
[heavy breaths]
[timers ticking]
[man on phone]
I told you, no other phone.
[discordant music]
[man on phone]
Good old India.
She played her part
to perfection.
Between her daughter's life
and yours,
she had to make a choice.
-[school bell rings]
- It's time.
Your fifth...
[kids shouting]
...and final mission.
[kids shouting]
[One]
You're gonna k*ll these kids?
[One]
Kids, move! Get away! Move!
[One] Move, kids! Run! Go! Move!
Move! Go, go!

Thank you, Daniel.
What a great soul.

[woman speaking Wolof]
[man on phone]
Beautiful work, my friends.
You've just slaughtered
a Koranic schoolteacher
in front of his students.
Looks like you've managed
to piss off
an entire population.
[pop music continues]
[both panting]
[man on phone] We did it!
You will awaken
the millions of the oppressed
who have been waiting
for a fire to be lit!

[reporter]
Today is a very dark day
in the history of Senegal
and the world.
The deadliest attacks
the country has ever witnessed
took the lives of
Alpha Cheik Diop,
Ali Rihan, Cherif Abdou Fall
and his son Onaye Fall,
the leaders of the FLAO,
Front de Libration
de l'Afrique de l'Ouest,
the pro-democratic
political party
that had a massive following
both inside
and outside the country.
News organizations
around the world
have received
anonymous drone footage
showing two men,
identified as Americans,
at the scene of the attacks
just moments
before each expl*si*n.
These same two men
were also identified
in the execution
of a beloved professor
in front of his students
at the Muhammad Usman
Koulobali Koranic School.
There are unsubstantiated
reports
that the individuals
detonated a b*mb
on a secluded beach
outside the city,
taking their own lives.
The attacks,
seen as blatant terrorism
against Muslim targets,
has revived
the anger of a population
that had hoped for change,
and the Senegalese government
has requested
the immediate departure
of the American ambassador.
Muslim leaders across the globe
are condemning the attacks
and pointing
fingers at the West
as the "I am Dakar" movement
mushrooms on social media
and protesters flood--
-[electricity buzzes]
-[cell phone rings]
[coughs]
[man on phone] Wakey, wakey.
[timer ticking]
[Three whimpers]
[man on phone] Ouch.
[sobs]
[man on phone]
In the beginning...
[melodic whistling]
...there was nothing.
Then zero
became one.
[melodic whistling fades]
Pleasant speech
And beautiful lies
Was in a dream
Who played with their lives
I'm breathing
But I'm dead inside
Inside
They'll burn my wings
When mine played out
They'll go worship
Someone else tonight
Tonight
And I just want to be free
But I'm attracted
By the light
At night they worship
All the butterflies
They worship
All the butterflies
And I just want to be free
But I'm attracted
By the light
At night, they worship
All the butterflies
Even when they fall
From the sky
Ah-hh
[closing theme music]
[man on phone]
Thank you and bye-bye.
