Come on, pass!
(Indistinct Chatter)
I am going to show you
how to put the chain.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Pass the ball! Come on.
Julien, stop sticking to me!
Go play!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Let's go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Here!
Come on kick!
-Hey!
-Watch it!
What the...
How dare you!
(Indistinct Chatter)
You are dead!
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Julien!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Stop it!
Julien!
What are you going to do now?
What are you going to do?
Oh!
Julien!
So why did you get fired?
It wasn't exactly my fault.
The restaurant couldn't keep
everyone on the payroll so I...
-Okay.
-I mean they had to fire me.
Can you hold up long hours?
Yes. I love to work.
I have always worked.
Even when I was in school, I was
helping my mom at the hair salon.
So you have just turned 30.
Do you have children or planning
to start a family? - No.
You should not worry
on pregnancy leave.
You mean you don't want
children eventually?
It's not really my thing.
That's good, and I will not try
and take you on a job that
involves children.
I see you have a degree in tourism?
What would you consider
your strengths?
I would say people, customers.
I like to be around people.
-I like to welcome them.
-Grown-up people.
Grown-up people, yeah.
And languages.
I am really good with languages.
Your English is very good.
My mom is American.
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah. - Where from?
Key West.
-Have you ever been?
-Never.
I actually never left Marseille.
You have a boat permits?
And I won the catamaran race
when I was 12. I...
I have to say it.
My father was a sailor so
I am really good at sea.
It's his strength in the blood.
Well, we do have a position
where all your qualities could
work out well. - Yeah.
Except it's far for Marseille.
Where is it?

-What is this car?
-Get in.
No, Julien, answer me.
-What is this car?
-It's a boat.
(Background Song)
(Background Song)
Who are you talking to?
(Background Song)
No one. What was it like? Good.
Did they like your look?
Go on, drive. Stop it!
Stop it! You are driving me crazy.
You are crazy.
What is this?
It's not what you think it is.
It's coke.
No, it's nothing.
-Is it coke or not?
-No, it's nothing.
You are still dealing
when you promised me you had quit.
You are lying to me.
You are making me lose my job.
It was a shitty restaurant.
What do you do with your life?
Except for your traffic
and your cars. You are useless.
You are so annoying. Okay,
stop pissing me off.
Come on, let me out.
Let me out!
I can't take care of you any more, Julien.
I can't take care of you any more.
You don't have a car. I just got it.
-I am nice, right?
-What?
Unbelievable!
I am fed up.
Don't bang the fucking door.
Fuck!
This asshole never called me back.
What do I write?
Something romantic
or something really sexual?
You just met a guy in a bar, mama.
Mom, I am leaving.
Okay.
What about something funny?
Men love funny women.
Mom, are you listening to me?
I am leaving. I got a job.
What are you talking about?
-I have a job.
-You are leaving Marseille?
Yes.
That's fucking crazy.
A. Who is going to
take care of the family?
So you really think
I am going to stay here
and sleep on your couch forever?
So, where is it?
Somewhere really far away from here.
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is your captain speaking.
If you look to your left
you will see some
of the many beautiful islands
surrounding mainland Mathara.
The weather is clear.
-Hello.
-Nina? - Yes.
Hello, welcome to Mathara.
-Thank you.
-Please, give me your bag. - Okay.
-Are you sure?
-Yeah. I insist. I insist.
Please.
-First time in Mathara?
-Yeah.
See, that is my mosque.
-No! Really?
-How long will you stay?
Forever!
Sorry.
Miss Lafont.
My name is Azan.
Welcome to the Blue Coral.
Nice meeting you. Thank you.
As we say in Mathara.
-Khush Takbar.
-Khush Takbar.
Please.
In a hotel
people are here to stay
and we have to make sure
that stay remains memorable.
You have absolutely no idea
how difficult it is to change
the experience of an unhappy customer.
But I am sure with your gorgeous smile.
You are going to get through anything.
I am sure you must be really good
at multitasking.
-Well, I hope so.
-Your roommate, Valeria.
-Hi, how are you?
-Hi. Shall we?
A hug.
-So happy to meet you.
-Me too.
I heard so much about you.
I hope you enjoy here.
I have got to get back to work
but we will catch up later.
And for the piece De resistance.
Come.
A bird's eye view
of the fabulous Blue Coral Hotel.
Isn't she a beauty, huh?
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello, how are you?
-Yeah. Nice meeting you.
-Nice to meet you.
-Buenos deas, buenos deas.
-Oh, what time is it?
Twenty-five past eight. How do you feel?
-Tired.
-Of course.
What is this?
Just a regular Monday night.
You will get used to it.
Azan must have shown you around,
like he owns the place, no?
Yeah, he is nice.
Have one.
I stole them from the pantry house.
Hey, hey, hey.
He is eating chutney like ketchup.
Tariq!
You have got to look for
this guy when you go to the kitchen.
-He is a genius with food.
-How are you?
Yeah, we met.
When they are not making me
do this and that
they let me do my job.
Assistant chef.
He is better than the chef.
Chicken?
-It's good.
-Bye, gordita.
Shower this way.
We will send you more.
So good. Let's go.
-Bye.
-Bye.
Let me do it.
Voila.
This...
Oh.
Thank you.
Have your phone. Your phone.
Come.
-Hi.
-Oh, hello.
Welcome to the Blue Coral Hotel.
Hi. - Here are some refreshing
drinks for you.
Please.
Welcome.
Okay, I have got to go.
You have any other questions?
-I am good.
-Good luck now.
-You are going to be great.
-Thank you.
Is there a kids' club?
Yes, we have a mini club
and it's open from 7 am to 7 problem.
Here's the children's activities.
Excuse me, where is the spa?
One second, please.
Could you take us to our room?
Umm... Yep.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Yeah!
-Yes. - That's so nice.
Here's your private swimming pool.
With a beautiful view of the ocean.
Massage bed for you.
You will be able to enjoy massages.
I overheard you say that
this is your first day.
Yes, sir.
-I wish you the best.
-Thank you, sir.
-Enjoy your stay.
-Oh, we certainly will.
Bye, Nina.
Money in my bank. Money in my bank.
Money in my bank. Bank. Bank. Bank.
Hey, Nina, listen.
Listen to me, Nina.
Yes, tell me.
Did you talk to Darren?
No. Why?
-It's important.
-She is here.
If you talk to Darren,
tell him to answer me.
I have to go.
Enjoy your stay in prison, sir.
Wait, Nina.

What are you doing?
Huh? What?
I don't want to be around drugs.
Aye relax.
They sell it everywhere.
You know that there's a risk
of life sentence with that shit.
For the locals, Nina.
Not for tourists.
(Prayer)
(Indistinct Chatter)
You need to find a solution.
I am so sorry. We will do our best.
Yesterday we tried snorkeling and
there were no spots available, okay?
And the spa and the mini club are full.
We finally have a spot for tennis
and you have no babysitters.
I understand. I understand.
But it's holidays and not that.
What seems to be the problem?
Well, they need babysitters,
but we are short on staff.
But I am happy to help.
So then that's perfect.
We have found the solution.
Well, actually, they need two babysitters.
We have three children.
We do the pool every day.
I hate the pool.
I hate the fucking ocean.
I came here for you guys.
And today is my day and
I want to play tennis.
-Wait.
-We pay a lot for this hotel.
This is supposed
to be our perfect holiday.
And it will be the perfect holiday,
Mrs Latner, I assure you.
Please bear with me.
Just have a seat.
I will be back in a minute.
This is unbelievable.
(Indistinct Chatter)
I need your help.
There's a bit of a situation there.
Can you go and babysit with Valeria?
-What?
-I said, can you babysit Valeria?
-No. Sorry, sir. I can't.
-No?
-Why?
-I told you I don't have
any professional training with children.
You don't need professional training
with children, Nina.
-Go on.
-But it's not my line of work.
Nina, I am not asking you.
I am telling you.
Please, we need your help.
We are short-staffed.
Go and help Valeria.
How long?
As soon as someone is free,
they will come and replace you.
I promise. Now, can you please go?
(Indistinct Chatter)
Enjoy your game of tennis, Mrs Latner.
Oh! So nice.
No.
I love kids.
If I find the right man, I want three.
Three, three, three.
Hello.
Okay.
Yes.
Nina, they need me at the concierge.
The baby is still sleeping.
You will be fine. - What?
What do you mean?
I will send you someone
as soon as possible.
If not, I will be back.
Call me if you need anything, okay?
Can you take me to a mini-club?
Yes. Go with her.
You have to stay here with Nina.
Your parents will be back very soon.
You have to finish the beautiful
necklace for your mom. - Okay.
Okay, but how long are you
going for? - I don't know.
I will be back soon. I will call you.
(Indistinct Chatter)
I will pop and I will pop
and I will blow your house down!
I want to eat my pancake.
Oh, this looks great on you.
Get out!
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
It's okay. It's okay.
We have to put him
in the stroller and go for a walk.
That's what mom does.
No, I am sorry. We will have
to cancel our weekly meeting.
Look, we have got 105% occupancy.
Four people.
Four people have called in sick
so we will have to do
this some other time, okay?
Take this one.
Stop!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Stop it! I said stop!
You want to go in? Come on, let's go.
Come back!
God!
There's a problem with the stroller.
Stop it! We are going to play
the game of silence.
Hi.
-Azan sent you. Can you help me?
-No.
Oh, no. Too much work. Sorry.
Wait. No, no. Leila,
you are going to hurt yourself.
Stop it.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Are you okay?
(Indistinct Chatter)
Okay, come.
Where's Leila?
She went to find mummy.
Leila?
Leila!
Leila!
Leila?
Leila!
It's not possible.
Leila!
Leila!
Hey!
Hey, the little girl, she is missing.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Have you seen a little girl.
Four years old.
-Is she here?
-No, she is not here.
Oh God!
-Okay. Take them.
-Yes.
Hold her.
Leila!
Leila!
Do you know a song
we could sing together?
No, I don't.
You must know a song.
If you are happy and you know it
clap your hands.
If you are happy and you know it
then you really want to show it.
If you are happy and you know it
clap your hands.
Leila!
Someone help!
Oh!
Leila!
Help!
Someone help!
If you are happy
and you know clap your hands.
If you are happy
and you know clap your hands.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Do something.
-Come on quick. I saw them running
to the swimming pool, man. That way.
What is going on? - It's
under control, madam. Don't worry.
Nina. Nina. Calm down, Nina.
-Calm down.
-Come here.
The paramedics are here. Let the
professionals do their work. Come.
Everything is going to be fine.
-What happened?
-No, no, no.
What happened? - Please let
the professionals do their job.
Nina, the child is
in the best possible hands now.
Go, sit there. Go.
It's nobody's fault, okay?
It was an accident, Nina.
I need to drive you girls
to the police station.
-They want to interrogate us all.
-What?
-Why?
-It's just a formality.
Something about insurance
or something.
But, obviously, you need to change.
Look, take a couple of minutes,
but I am waiting outside, okay?
It's a formality.
Okay.
Come on, Nina. Let's go.
Let's get changed.
Declined your identity.
Your name, please.
Nina Lafont.
Nationality? French.
Date and place of birth?
July 7th, 1994, Marseille.
What is the definition of your job
at the Blue Coral Hotel.
I work at the reception.
-What acting!
-Do your work?
Okay.
You continue.
I work at the reception.
And when did you accept the task
to attend the children?
I did not accept the task.
I demanded specifically not
to be left alone with them.
I am just not really comfortable
with children.
I have a kid brother and...
So, you have a little brother?
And your brother was there?
I didn't talk about my brother.
Will you bring the file?
So, have you consumed alcohol?
No.
Because the smell indicates that
you have consumed alcohol.
Oh, you mean just now?
Yes, I had a couple of drinks.
What is that drama about!
Here.
I had a couple of drinks, but
I would never drink when I work.
So, what was your responsibility
at this unfortunate event?
My responsibility?
I have no responsibility.
I mean, I tried my best
to look after three children
and I was left alone with them.
-I...
-You were left alone?
Yes.
Well, not at first, but after.
What do you mean? Yes or no?
This is so confusing.
Give me one answer.
Who lost the child?
What?
It was me.
Dare to say.
Miss, do you need water?
-You were alone, right?
-I am sorry.
She doesn't get it.
At 10 am, at the Blue Coral Hotel.
Were you there?
It's very difficult to...
How many times do I have to tell you?
Don't you get it?
I told her to not leave me alone,
but she did.
Yes, sir. - And then I was.
I took care. - Turn it off.
Can you explain me
what I am doing here?
Did you pay the bills?
What happened after that
when you accepted the task?
That's a good one.
Can I go now?
Yes, you can.
But can you just sign
this paper over here?
I don't understand what's written.
-I don't speak your language.
-It's just your statement.
And just sign here
and you are free to go.
Hey, how many times do
I have to tell you?
Huh?
You are right.
Now is just not the time for this,
my darling.
-Do you understand?
-Yes.
Wasn't so bad, huh?
Look, it's going to be fine, Nina.
It was an accident.
And I guess we just have to learn
from our mistakes and move on.
Right?
And the good news is that
the hospital says
they are going to release the child soon.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
And it's all good.
Hmm. Good.
You heard anything from the hospital?
No.
Do you think she is going to be okay?
God willing.
Azan?
Bonjour, Pierre.
Good afternoon, Azan.
Come, this way.
Nina, I had like to introduce
you to Monsieur Bordeaux
from the French Consulate.
-Bonjour.
-Bonjour.
Attorney par excellence,
Mr Yameen from Yameen & Co.
And of course, Mathara's Deputy
Superintendent of Police.
Can you please follow us?
Come, gentlemen.
It happened late last night.
What?
What happened? What happened?
It's called post-immersion syndrome
also known as dry drowning.
It's quite rare, but it does happen.
The doctors, they did all they could, but...
-No.
-She didn't make it.
No. This is...
Nina.
No...
Look, we still had hope.
No, no, no, no.
-Nina.
-No. - Our lawyer will explain.
A lawyer?
Why do I... Why do I need a lawyer?
A complaint has already been
filed by the family.
I received a copy of
the police report since
a French citizen was involved.
Let me give you my card.
You can call me if you need anything.
Yes, the same goes for me as well.
She died.
-The... The kid, the kid died.
-I know.
But Nina, it was an accident.
I was left alone with the kid
and you left me.
And now they are all on
my fucking back like...
Like all of this is my fault.
Why was... Why was I the only one
to see the lawyer?
Because I wasn't there
when it happened, Nina.
But that's why it happened.
It wasn't my job to be there.
It wasn't your job to be there?
It wasn't your job to be there?
It wasn't my job either!
It wasn't our fault.
It wasn't our fault.
Did you tell the police?
No, they didn't ask.
They didn't ask?
Something's not right.
Please, Nina, you have to trust me.
We are in this together, please.
The men, they are going
to want to cover their asses.
So we have to stick together.
Okay?
Please stop.
I will help you.
Come on, girl.
It's like falling off a horse.
You have to get back on your feet.
Nina, get dressed and go back to work.
Save those tips for now.
That's all that matters.
Five.
Umm... So let me see.
-I don't.
-Good morning.
Yes, yes, we can do this.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
The owner of the hotel is here.
He would like to meet with you.
-Now?
-Hmm.
So just this...
Nina, I would like
to introduce you to our patron.
Mr Mohammed Zahid.
Khush Takbar.
Have we made you feel like part
of the family here?
Umm... Yes.
Tell me what happened that day.
So...
So I was... So I was at
the reception working and
and management asked us to
take care of three children
and I told them that I
that I wasn't qualified for it.
-But they didn't care.
-Wasn't qualified?
I am sorry, Ms Lafont.
I don't recall you saying
anything like this.
That's a lie.
Nina. - Is that your best line
of defense, Ms Lafont?
You are a female.
How is it possible that you are
so incompetent with children?
And how could the manager
from my hotel
assign someone who is so incompetent
for such a task?
Well, that's exactly what happened.
Listen to me, Ms Lafont.
The lawsuit is not against you as
an individual.
These people don't even know
your name.
They could care less for a housekeeper.
I am not a housekeeper.
I... I work at the reception.
The lawsuit is directed at
the Blue Coral Hotel.
These people want money
and they want to ruin our reputation.
It's not about money. They lost a child.
One line of defense with one lawyer.
Trust me. Everything will be fine.
Do you understand?
I am asking, are you a listener,
Ms Lafont?
Yes, sir. She is a listener.
It's very wrong.
You should rest, Nina.
Maybe you need to speak to someone.
I have known Azan my entire life.
We grew up here together.
He comes from a very poor family,
and he is worked his way up.
Now he is
swimming with sharks, and he is
doing anything not to be eaten.
Introduced me to this. This man...
-Mohammed...
-Mohammed Zahid?
Yes.
Stay away from these people.
Tariq.
Okay. Trust me.
Why are we going down?
Oh, just for a bit of privacy.
There's another office over there.
Come.
Have you talked to Valeria? She...
I mean,
she works at the at the concierge.
Valeria, she is not in the file.
She is not in the file.
Hmm?
What do you mean, she is not in the file?
She wasn't around when
the accident happened.
Well, technically, she wasn't.
This is... This is fucked up.
I mean, what am I supposed to do here?
I don't understand.
Just to go over a few of the facts
of the incident that occurred.
-Please.
-I think I want to go.
I don't feel good here. Sorry.
There's nothing legally holding
you back in the country.
I don't see why you couldn't be back
home in time for Christmas.
-Can we make that happen, Azan?
-Sure.
You can always take
a two-week holiday and be back.
It will be good to spend time
with your family, right?
Hmm.
That's perfect.

Hello.
Okay.
I have just recently been informed
of this police statement.
It reads, I was called upon
to look after the children.
I accepted the job where
I was fully aware I would be alone
for a period where I lost sight
of the child.
That's... That's not what I said.
I never said that, and you know that.
You know I never said that, huh?
Is this or is this not your signature?
Yeah, but these are not my words.
Where's the rest of the deposition?
I want to see it.
There's also a recording.
We can ask for the recording.
Rashid, please. - I have a copy
of the recording right here.
We can listen to it.
Give me one answer.
Who lost the child? Huh?
It was me.
Where's the rest of it?
-That's not the only thing I said.
-Ms Lafont.
The charge would be death
by negligence.
-Ms Lafont.
-You dragged me into this.
You are the one who told me
I didn't need a lawyer.
And we will take care of it.
Your words are being used against you.
Where do I risk?
-15 years in prison.
-That's what he said.
I am here.
I am not going to let you down.
Well, if you are here
and you don't want to let me down
you have got to go back to the police
and you have got to make
a new deposition.
You have to tell them
what really happened.
I can't do that without speaking
to Azan first.
Why? What is it going to do with him?
Because we need him.
He is a fucking liar. Fuck him.
I think you are under a lot of stress.
Okay I see... - And it's hard
for you to see straight.
So what you need to concentrate on now
is how you go back to Marseille.
I don't want to be a runaway.
I am innocent.
Of course.
There.
Please go back.
Next.
Show me your passport.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen
travelling with flight AF301 to Paris.
Next.
Passengers seated would be...
Show me your passport. Which country?
Wait here.
What's on her passport?
Her passport is not cleared, sir.
Step on side.
-Follow me, please.
-Step on side, please.
-Step on the side.
-Wait for me.
Have a safe flight. Thank you.
Give me your name.
Nina Lafont.
-Are you hearing me?
-Wait. Wait for me.
You are not going anywhere.
Valeria.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Birth place?
-199...
Sorry, Marseille.
How long have you been here?
You will need an official
authorization to leave the territory.
But I have an authorization.
I mean, do you want to call
the manager of my hotel?
Why are you standing there? Tell her.
Miss, you cannot leave today.
Hello,
you have reached Pearrie Beadoux.
French consul, please leave
your message after the...
Hello. You have reached Rashid. Please
leave a message after the tone.
One, two, three.
-Yeah. Merry Christmas.
-Cheers.
Cheers. Cheers.
Yeah, man. Merry Christmas, everybody.
Umm.
Hello, police.
They
took my passport.
I have no clue.
I am stuck.
Mom, help.
Please help me.
Mama.
Hmm.
How many times have I told you not
to hang up on me, huh?
-What the hell is happening here?
-Come.
So, what nest did you get
yourself into? - Mom.
Where are we going? Don't you live
at the hotel or something?
Keep walking.
It was an accident.
They had no fucking lifeguards.
They had no fence.
It's not a public pool, mom.
It's a five-star hotel.
Oh, yeah, a five-star hotel.
They make you live like fucking rats.
Hey sweetie.
We need to get your passport back and.
You need to return to Marseille.
It's not been taken care of.
-I don't know what else to do.
-It's been taken care of.
It's not been taken care of, Nina.
Please, don't give me crap.
I flew all the way here, okay?
You are in a foreign country.
The police took your passport.
You might as well be in prison.
Can you not say that?
It's actually giving me anxiety.
-I am sorry.
-I can't. - Don't, don't, don't.
I am sorry, okay? I am sorry.
This is a very emotional thing.
You need to take some days off, okay?
I am, I am working.
I cannot take any days off.
Later, we'll meet a lawyer.
I already have a lawyer.
I am in good hands. Trust me.
What lawyer? Well the,
the, the hotel lawyer.
Listen, if you were in good hands
you would have been on that plane.
-Are you kidding me?
-Please.
I have someone who is been
highly recommended, okay?
Yeah? And who recommended him?
Some guy from Marseille.
I don't know.
He had a legal problem here.
He, he knows what he is talking about.
Anyway, I am not going to get
into it. It's a really long story.
But listen, I have learned
a lot about this place.
It's like the prisons are fucked up in it.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
-I think he is over here.
-Tea.
Don't worry.
Go along there and say hello.
Huh?
Ah! Mr Manique.
-Hello.
-Hello, I am so glad you are here.
This is, this is my daughter Nina.
Let, let's go in back, okay?
What is his name? I forget.
-Zaik.
-Zaik, he said
he wanted to help her.
Do you know him?
Zaik. Mohamed Zaik.
He doesn't help anyone besides
his own blood.
He is the head of a very powerful family.
They are extremely well connected.
They own the Blue Coral.
They own many other resorts.
So many islands.
So.
This unfortunate incident, it's not
going to be a simple matter.
Our justice system is hard,
especially for women.
You see, people, they come here
they get fooled by the transparency
of the lagoon.
But underneath, there's darkness.
We locals know this.
Secrets are easily hidden there.
I told my daughter it was
a bad idea to come here.
-And now look where we are.
-Sorry, issue.
-Okay.
-Hey.
Not to worry, huh?
I still have good hope in justice.
But unfortunately, I do have to go now.
I have a long day in court.
There's a man who relies on me
to save him from death penalty.
-Really?
-Yes.
One thing, Nina. Don't lose hope.
It's important.
Are you sure about this, Mr Manique?
Yes, I am sure.
Thank you. - I really like him
a lot. He is a good guy.
First, we have to go
to the police and make
a declaration of loss of document
and then we will go
to the French consulate
and get a new passport. - No,
I am not lying to the police, mom.
-Stop it.
-And I know the consul.
Why did I come here
if you are not listening to me?
Listen to me.
Do you want to be stuck here forever?
Oh my God, that's so bad.
Thank you.
-Did you get it?
-Yeah.
Let me see.
It's too late for the consulate now.
Let's go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
There are many things that
seem to be missing.
I will be needing those back.
I can make you a copy if you like.
Thank you.
-Who is Lina?
-Lina is the housekeeper.
She is the one who found the child
in the pool.
And where is she now?
Has she been interrogated by the police?
And why wasn't Lina at the...
Lina at the... - Nina.
I know. Nina at the reconstruction
of the fact.
Wait a second. What reconstruction?
Just shortly after the incident, Nina.
And you remember
the fragile state you were in?
So the doctor actually advised us
not to bother you.
-I never saw a doctor.
-She never did.
It's clearly a conflict of interest.
You are representing the Blue Coral.
The doctor doesn't seem to want to take
any responsibility in this tragic incident.
And my client here refuses
to be held responsible.
That's what we are trying to say.
I think you are a bit mistaken. You see.
Nina is very much part of our family.
Quit the family bullshit.
Nina has family sitting right next to her.
And it's not the Blue Coral. Okay?
Rashid, would you be kind enough
to inform Mrs Lafont that
we need to keep
a united front to prove that
there was no crime,
that there was no negligence
-and this was purely an accident.
-Oh, my God.
Azan is absolutely correct.
It is the Canadian parents
that we are up against.
So why is this Valeria girl off the hook?
Huh? Was it that they both
were assigned to the job?
She was forced to get off the case
and she signed
a false deposition to cover
to cover Mr Azan, actually.
Signed a false deposition?
What nonsense is this? - Yeah.
Because it's his girlfriend.
-No.
-Okay, that's it.
Hey! Where's Lina, the housekeeper?
I have to find her.
She left the hotel straight
after the police reconstruction.
Okay, so I was
under so much stress that day
but I totally forgot to tell the police.
But I remember now asking her
to help me with the children.
Azan had a leave.
She is married to his first cousin.
He can't afford to have anyone in
this accident linked to him.
-But why me?
-Because you are a foreigner.
He didn't plan anything against you.
He just thought he could get off easier.
He is like a mouse trapped
in a cage trying to get out.
Okay.
-I will help you.
-Yeah?
I will help you try and find her.
Thank you.
-This way, please.
-Thank you.
The consul is waiting for you.
Please follow me. - Thank you.
-Consul?
-Madam Lafont.
-Enchante.
-Sorry, I kept you waiting.
Nina?
Uh... What's he doing here?
Oh, I asked him to join us.
He knows this case better than anyone.
Please, have a seat.
Thank you.
Hello, sir, can I help you?
Sorry, sir,
there's a private meeting going on.
Mr Manique?
A private meeting with my client.
Mr Manique, our lawyer.
Thank you for coming, sir.
Please, have a seat. Thank you.
Okay, gentlemen,
I think we can all agree.
Nina needs to go home with me now.
Yes, and we are working on that.
And I understand you are desperate
but she cannot do anything illegal.
Your client, Miss Lafont,
went to the police
and made a false declaration
of loss of document.
They took my passport.
What am I supposed to do?
She called you a million times.
You never called her back.
You never answered.
Trust me, we are doing everything
in our power to help.
Now, we have come up with
a plan we all agree with.
-Yes.
-The best thing
we have thought this over.
We have had many meetings
with the board. - Yeah.
The best thing would be
for you to plead guilty.
What?
I am innocent. There's no way
I am pleading guilty. - Nina.
If you accept this,
we will be able to intervene
and have you serve your time in France.
You cannot choose who to condemn.
This is not justice.
Where is it? Ah!
Okay.
I was able to get a copy of the file.
I am not sure it's complete, though.
Can we go through it together?
I think my daughter should accept
the plea deal.
What?
I think you should accept the deal
-and get your ass back to France.
-No, no, no.
-I am not staying here to visit you.
-I won't.
There's no way I am going to prison.
I hate this fucking island
and it's driving me crazy.
-It's driving you crazy?
-Yes.
-Yeah?
-Can I have another, please?
No, no, no, no, no, no. I think she is fine.
-I would advise you both.
-It's driving me crazy.
I don't need your advice.
Thank you very much.
Hey, shut the fuck up, Nina.
Let this man help you.
You don't know
what you are talking about.
You always fuck up.
Nina, stop!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Nina! Someone's waiting for you outside.
Hey.
Oh, my God. Please, I need to sit.
I am so hungover.
Sit.
Please, I can't get up.
I don't know what to do.
I am totally broke.
But I don't want to leave you here.
Mr Manique said he could get me
a job. - Mom.
I wish I could be the ones dealing
with these fucking assholes.
Mom. - What happened with
this girl was not your fault.
What happened with
your brother wasn't your fault.
But I...
You were always there for him.
-Okay, you need to forgive yourself.
-Mom.
If you want to help me
you have to leave.
You have to.
I am begging you.
Okay.
I love you.
You listen to Mr Manique, okay?
He is a smart guy.
-Nice party.
-That way please.
Thank you.
Coming. Coming.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Five, four, three.
-Hello.
-Two.
Listen to me.
Hello.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello.
Hello, sir.
May we come inside for a minute?
-We need to have a word with madam.
-No.
-Please.
-No. - Only two minutes.
-Is madam in?
-Who is it? - No.
-Madam, please.
-Who is it?
We have to discuss something
important. Only two minutes. - Please.
-No, no, no.
-Two minutes.
Thank you.
When I saw, she was still alive.
-You know, struggling...
-Yeah. - In water.
But I called, I screamed, help, help.
But nobody came. I ran to get
-gardener.
-Gardener. Yeah.
Sorry, ma'am.
They came very late.
Her lungs had filled with water.
Her lungs had filled with water.
It was too late.
-So she could have been saved.
-Yeah.
But that day, because of the holiday
there were no medics,
no professional CPR.
Oh shit!
Did you tell the police?
-Did you tell the police?
-Police, no. Azan
didn't want hotel boss.
So I told Azan, I no swim.
-Yeah?
-But Azan told me
to keep quiet, you know, tell lie.
But you have to testify.
Azan is part of the family.
Yeah, but he will only be blamed a little.
She is saying that
Azan is part of her family.
But I am saying he is only going
to get some blame.
You are going to go to jail for your life.
She can go to jail.
Please.
Madam, please.
Okay.
Will you do it?
-She is saying yes.
-Yeah. - She is saying yes.
Thank you, madam. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
Nina, this is good news.
You are here again soon,
and I can fight this.
You are innocent and
I will prove it now. - Yes.
Yes, we can prove it.
Yes, we have to win.
What do you mean we have to win?
We are going to win.
I told your mother I would look after you
like you are my own daughter.
Thank you.
No make-up, no short dress.
No part of body showing.
Be on time.
The judge who is been appointed
to the case
is very strict.
Be polite, you stick to the facts.
And you speak only
when being asked a question.
We have a key witness.
It's going to be okay.
So, Ms Lafont, I see from
your file that you only worked
110 days at the Blue Coral Hotel.
Yes.
Yes, Your Honour, about four months.
It didn't take long for you to become
involved in a criminal matter.
Your Honour is referring to
the charge of death by negligence.
Do you have a prior record, Ms Lafont?
No, no prior misdemeanors.
Why do you keep on mentioning,
insisting on the fact that
you have a problem with children?
I never said that. I am just
not qualified in child care.
So what will you do when you have
your own children?
I don't want children.
Why not?
Is that a crime?
Manique, I have to ensure that she
had no intention to hurt a child.
I would never hurt a child,
Your Honour, never.
What is your family situation, Ms Lafont?
I live in France with my mother,
and I am single.
Oh, I see. You are religious.
No.
It's a good thing. Women here stay in
their family until they are married.
Do you have any plans
to take a husband? - No.
You are not interested in men?
I just
not in the near future.
A man's protection can be
very useful, Ms Lafont.
Manique, anything you want to add?
Yes, Your Honour. We have
a key witness who can testify.
Oh, good. Where is he?
She should be here any minute.
Well, I don't have all day.
Ms Lafont,
it's very clear to me you simply
failed in your responsibility, didn't you?
-I am sorry.
-Hmm.
-So you are admitting?
-No.
I think about her every day
and I know that
an apology doesn't do much
that it won't bring her back.
But.
I need you to understand that
it was an accident.
I, I beg you to hear me, Your Honour.
Look, a drowning accident
could happen to anyone
in or around a pool.
You are not a lifeguard.
I don't necessarily see
why your personal responsibility
should be engaged here.
And as you know, Your Honour
all serious injuries that happen at a pool.
Must be reported to the Department
of Health within 24 hours
and this has not been done.
And we can prove this at our next
audience with our witness.
Well, yes, a witness testimony
will certainly help
to move things forward here, huh?
Ms Lafont, go back to work,
be patient, and
you should be back with
your family very soon.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I am very sorry, but you haven't found
the happiness here that
you were expecting to find.
Savita, where's madam Lina?
All the furniture is gone.
She is gone. She is gone. She is gone.
-What is happening here?
-She is gone, Nina.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hey, baby. How's it going over there?
Nothing much.
You haven't called me since I left.
-I had to call Mr Manique.
-Well, I was busy.
He told me he is confident
you will win the case.
Okay, I got to go.
-Okay, I got to go. I am in a rush.
-If you do not speak to me
I am going to keep calling you.
I am fine. Everything is fine.
I just can't talk right now, so.
-Call me.
-I will call you back.
-Sure?
-I promise. Bye. Bye.
Let me be clear about this.
The responsibility for the children
was clearly given to Ms Lafont.
No.
No? What do you mean, no?
If we go back to that tragic morning
one element, the most important one,
has been disregarded, no?
And that is?
The mother specifically asked
for two babysitters to look
after their children.
Why? Why do you think?
Oh, because she knew the task
of taking care at the same time of a baby
and two young, hyperactive girls
was practically impossible
for only one person.
That is why Mr Azan Nasir
imposed on my client
-the task of assisting...
-Imposed?
Valeria Tejedor.
She was called back by you
to fulfil her vacant desk at the concierge.
And Nina Lafont was then left alone
with all three children.
Only the management should
be held responsible.
Here.
Look what I received.
We would love to have you for
dinner. Are you available?
-Abdul Himawan, the judge.
-Yeah.
You think I should go?
Definitely you should go.
You don't want to upset him.
What do you mean
I don't want to upset him?
This man holds your future in his hands.
Hey, Nina. You can trust this judge.
He has a wife and child.
He is a very, very serious man.
Hello.
Come, please. Come.
Meet my wife, Amal,
and my daughter, Serena.
Nice meeting you.
So tell me, how are things at the hotel?
I, I try to focus on work.
Hmm. Well, work, you know
a healthy distraction could be
a good thing. - Yes.
I am, I am sorry to ask you this
but do you know when
I will get my passport back?
Usually it can take several months
when a passport is confiscated
but you are lucky you are
in good hands with me, huh?
Don't worry.
Things will go smooth and fast.
-Okay?
-Yeah.
Ah, would you like some fruit?
Huh? A little dessert
to round things off. - Thank you.
Please.
Are you, are you sure?
-Yes, absolutely.
-I can take a taxi if you...
No way, huh?
Look, I could never leave
a lady unattended.
And besides, you know, driving at night
is my absolute real pleasure. I love it.
Hop in.
You can see all the stars up there.
All the stars.
Sir, can you drive me home, please?
Don't worry, I will get you
home safe and sound, Nina.
Sir, sir, can you drive me home, please?
-Do you see the stars in the sky?
-Sir. No!
-That's how you want to play?
-No!
Get here...
I am... I am joking. I don't want you...
-No!
-Nina! Where are you going?
Nina!
Hello?
Hello.
-Nina, what's going on?
-Fucking bitch!
Nina, I can't hear you. What happened?
Talk to me.
Nina, what is going on?
Nina, what's going on?
-The judge tried to rape me.
-God!
Okay.
You are far away, but you are not alone.
We are going to find a solution, okay?
Calm down. Breathe, okay?
It's going to be okay, my sister. Okay?
Drat!
Excuse me. I have heard you quit.
Are you okay?
Nina, it's not an accident, that's for sure.
No, I have to get out of here.
What are you talking about?
Get out of there?
I have to escape.
Do you think you can escape like that?
Besides, you are on a fucking
island, you know that?
Listen, you have to find me
a fake passport.
Julien, I am begging you.
Attention all passengers
traveling Flight SW392
to Paris airport.
Please be advised that.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Next.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Attention passengers, traveling to Paris.
This is the final boarding call.
Proceed to gate 3 immediately.
It went wrong at the airport.
The police who questioned me,
they were there.
They would have recognized me.
Escape by sea.
Huh?
-By sea?
-Yeah, by sea.
A sail boat of ours travels that
southern route twice a week.
What do you mean, a sailboat of yours?
Hey, do you want
to end up like your lawyer?
But I...
I am not ending up in Marseille,
on a boat full of hulls.
You won't make it to Marseille.
Stay focused, please.
We just need to get you out
of territorial waters
and then you will take a plane to go back.
But it's the Indian Ocean, Julien!
Do you understand that? It's huge!
No. - Don't overthink it, Nina!
You don't have a choice,
This is your last chance!
Hey, sis, you know the sea,
you will make it.
The package I had delivered
to you is a GPS phone.
The code is your birth date.
Hide it until you leave and
in the meantime, stay calm.
Keep a low profile and try to sleep
as much as you can.
You are going to need it.
Head south for two days
and someone will be waiting
for you on board the sailboat.
Thank you.
(Prayer)
(Prayer)
Wake up!
What do we have here?
Hey!
Search the place.
Get up.
Get dressed.
Who is there?
Look what we got here.
-It's...
-What is it?
It's not mine. I just...
Somebody... ouch!
No!
No!
Somebody broke into my room.
Where did you get it from?
You are hurting me.
Leave! Now!
You are hurting me. Please.
Help!
Your phone.
And your necklace too.
And other...
Please.
Yes, please.
Oh dear!
You can go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Order.
Sir, sir. I have to make a phone call.
Sir, I have...
I have the right to one phone call.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello?
It's Nina.
Can I get you something to drink?
Just water.
Wife and daughter are out of town.
So it's nice and quiet.
Why don't you have a shower,
freshen up?
There's a silk robe in there for you.
Yes.
Beautiful in silk.
Yes.
You are going to give me what's always...
Fucking bitch!
-Hello.
-Hello.
Nina.
You gotta help me.
I gotta leave the island tonight.
Oh!
Get her!
Get her!
Hurry!
-Go.
-From there.
She is not here.
Look there.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Are you sure?
Check around.
Sir, she is not on the pier.
Search everywhere.
I have got
two or three days of food and water.
Two jerrycans of gas.
Where is the sleeping bag?
Remember, you need
at least five hours of sleep.
The winds can get strong
and most important. - Yeah...
Remember to always head south.
Okay?
South, yes.
Thank you.
Wait, wait.
Go.
O God!
Have mercy!
Search there.
Come.
What are you doing?
What is the meaning of this?
Who has authorised this?
Do you know this woman?
Your Id please.
Have you seen this woman?
Keep looking.
Breaking news.
Nina Lafont fled from the prison.
She is on the run!
She could be dangerous.
If you have any information
please inform the police.
Come on!
Nina!
Hey!
Julien!
Come on!
That's it!
Go for it!
Yes! Yes!
Whoa!
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Come on, pass!
(Indistinct Chatter)
I am going to show you
how to put the chain.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Pass the ball! Come on.
Julien, stop sticking to me!
Go play!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Let's go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Here!
Come on kick!
-Hey!
-Watch it!
What the...
How dare you!
(Indistinct Chatter)
You are dead!
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Julien!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Stop it!
Julien!
What are you going to do now?
What are you going to do?
Oh!
Julien!
So why did you get fired?
It wasn't exactly my fault.
The restaurant couldn't keep
everyone on the payroll so I...
-Okay.
-I mean they had to fire me.
Can you hold up long hours?
Yes. I love to work.
I have always worked.
Even when I was in school, I was
helping my mom at the hair salon.
So you have just turned 30.
Do you have children or planning
to start a family? - No.
You should not worry
on pregnancy leave.
You mean you don't want
children eventually?
It's not really my thing.
That's good, and I will not try
and take you on a job that
involves children.
I see you have a degree in tourism?
What would you consider
your strengths?
I would say people, customers.
I like to be around people.
-I like to welcome them.
-Grown-up people.
Grown-up people, yeah.
And languages.
I am really good with languages.
Your English is very good.
My mom is American.
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah. - Where from?
Key West.
-Have you ever been?
-Never.
I actually never left Marseille.
You have a boat permits?
And I won the catamaran race
when I was 12. I...
I have to say it.
My father was a sailor so
I am really good at sea.
It's his strength in the blood.
Well, we do have a position
where all your qualities could
work out well. - Yeah.
Except it's far for Marseille.
Where is it?
(Background Song)
(Background Song)
(Background Song)
(Background Song)
-What is this car?
-Get in.
No, Julien, answer me.
-What is this car?
-It's a boat.
(Background Song)
(Background Song)
Who are you talking to?
(Background Song)
No one. What was it like? Good.
Did they like your look?
Go on, drive. Stop it!
Stop it! You are driving me crazy.
You are crazy.
What is this?
It's not what you think it is.
It's coke.
No, it's nothing.
-Is it coke or not?
-No, it's nothing.
You are still dealing
when you promised me you had quit.
You are lying to me.
You are making me lose my job.
It was a shitty restaurant.
What do you do with your life?
Except for your traffic
and your cars. You are useless.
You are so annoying. Okay,
stop pissing me off.
Come on, let me out.
Let me out!
I can't take care of you any more, Julien.
I can't take care of you any more.
You don't have a car. I just got it.
-I am nice, right?
-What?
Unbelievable!
I am fed up.
Don't bang the fucking door.
Fuck!
This asshole never called me back.
What do I write?
Something romantic
or something really sexual?
You just met a guy in a bar, mama.
Mom, I am leaving.
Okay.
What about something funny?
Men love funny women.
Mom, are you listening to me?
I am leaving. I got a job.
What are you talking about?
-I have a job.
-You are leaving Marseille?
Yes.
That's fucking crazy.
A. Who is going to
take care of the family?
So you really think
I am going to stay here
and sleep on your couch forever?
So, where is it?
Somewhere really far away from here.
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is your captain speaking.
If you look to your left
you will see some
of the many beautiful islands
surrounding mainland Mathara.
The weather is clear.
-Hello.
-Nina? - Yes.
Hello, welcome to Mathara.
-Thank you.
-Please, give me your bag. - Okay.
-Are you sure?
-Yeah. I insist. I insist.
Please.
-First time in Mathara?
-Yeah.
See, that is my mosque.
-No! Really?
-How long will you stay?
Forever!
Sorry.
Miss Lafont.
My name is Azan.
Welcome to the Blue Coral.
Nice meeting you. Thank you.
As we say in Mathara.
-Khush Takbar.
-Khush Takbar.
Please.
In a hotel
people are here to stay
and we have to make sure
that stay remains memorable.
You have absolutely no idea
how difficult it is to change
the experience of an unhappy customer.
But I am sure with your gorgeous smile.
You are going to get through anything.
I am sure you must be really good
at multitasking.
-Well, I hope so.
-Your roommate, Valeria.
-Hi, how are you?
-Hi. Shall we?
A hug.
-So happy to meet you.
-Me too.
I heard so much about you.
I hope you enjoy here.
I have got to get back to work
but we will catch up later.
And for the piece De resistance.
Come.
A bird's eye view
of the fabulous Blue Coral Hotel.
Isn't she a beauty, huh?
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello, how are you?
-Yeah. Nice meeting you.
-Nice to meet you.
-Buenos deas, buenos deas.
-Oh, what time is it?
Twenty-five past eight. How do you feel?
-Tired.
-Of course.
What is this?
Just a regular Monday night.
You will get used to it.
Azan must have shown you around,
like he owns the place, no?
Yeah, he is nice.
Have one.
I stole them from the pantry house.
Hey, hey, hey.
He is eating chutney like ketchup.
Tariq!
You have got to look for
this guy when you go to the kitchen.
-He is a genius with food.
-How are you?
Yeah, we met.
When they are not making me
do this and that
they let me do my job.
Assistant chef.
He is better than the chef.
Chicken?
-It's good.
-Bye, gordita.
Shower this way.
We will send you more.
So good. Let's go.
-Bye.
-Bye.
Let me do it.
Voila.
This...
Oh.
Thank you.
Have your phone. Your phone.
Come.
-Hi.
-Oh, hello.
Welcome to the Blue Coral Hotel.
Hi. - Here are some refreshing
drinks for you.
Please.
Welcome.
Okay, I have got to go.
You have any other questions?
-I am good.
-Good luck now.
-You are going to be great.
-Thank you.
Is there a kids' club?
Yes, we have a mini club
and it's open from 7 am to 7 problem.
Here's the children's activities.
Excuse me, where is the spa?
One second, please.
Could you take us to our room?
Umm... Yep.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Yeah!
-Yes. - That's so nice.
Here's your private swimming pool.
With a beautiful view of the ocean.
Massage bed for you.
You will be able to enjoy massages.
I overheard you say that
this is your first day.
Yes, sir.
-I wish you the best.
-Thank you, sir.
-Enjoy your stay.
-Oh, we certainly will.
Bye, Nina.
Money in my bank. Money in my bank.
Money in my bank. Bank. Bank. Bank.
Hey, Nina, listen.
Listen to me, Nina.
Yes, tell me.
Did you talk to Darren?
No. Why?
-It's important.
-She is here.
If you talk to Darren,
tell him to answer me.
I have to go.
Enjoy your stay in prison, sir.
Wait, Nina.

Aye relax.
They sell it everywhere.
You know that there's a risk
of life sentence with that shit.
For the locals, Nina.
Not for tourists.
(Prayer)
(Indistinct Chatter)
You need to find a solution.
I am so sorry. We will do our best.
Yesterday we tried snorkeling and
there were no spots available, okay?
And the spa and the mini club are full.
We finally have a spot for tennis
and you have no babysitters.
I understand. I understand.
But it's holidays and not that.
What seems to be the problem?
Well, they need babysitters,
but we are short on staff.
But I am happy to help.
So then that's perfect.
We have found the solution.
Well, actually, they need two babysitters.
We have three children.
We do the pool every day.
I hate the pool.
I hate the fucking ocean.
I came here for you guys.
And today is my day and
I want to play tennis.
-Wait.
-We pay a lot for this hotel.
This is supposed
to be our perfect holiday.
And it will be the perfect holiday,
Mrs Latner, I assure you.
Please bear with me.
Just have a seat.
I will be back in a minute.
This is unbelievable.
(Indistinct Chatter)
I need your help.
There's a bit of a situation there.
Can you go and babysit with Valeria?
-What?
-I said, can you babysit Valeria?
-No. Sorry, sir. I can't.
-No?
-Why?
-I told you I don't have
any professional training with children.
You don't need professional training
with children, Nina.
-Go on.
-But it's not my line of work.
Nina, I am not asking you.
I am telling you.
Please, we need your help.
We are short-staffed.
Go and help Valeria.
How long?
As soon as someone is free,
they will come and replace you.
I promise. Now, can you please go?
(Indistinct Chatter)
Enjoy your game of tennis, Mrs Latner.
Oh! So nice.
No.
I love kids.
If I find the right man, I want three.
Three, three, three.
Hello.
Okay.
Yes.
Nina, they need me at the concierge.
The baby is still sleeping.
You will be fine. - What?
What do you mean?
I will send you someone
as soon as possible.
If not, I will be back.
Call me if you need anything, okay?
Can you take me to a mini-club?
Yes. Go with her.
You have to stay here with Nina.
Your parents will be back very soon.
You have to finish the beautiful
necklace for your mom. - Okay.
Okay, but how long are you
going for? - I don't know.
I will be back soon. I will call you.
(Indistinct Chatter)
I will pop and I will pop
and I will blow your house down!
I want to eat my pancake.
Oh, this looks great on you.
Get out!
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
It's okay. It's okay.
We have to put him
in the stroller and go for a walk.
That's what mom does.
No, I am sorry. We will have
to cancel our weekly meeting.
Look, we have got 105% occupancy.
Four people.
Four people have called in sick
so we will have to do
this some other time, okay?
Take this one.
Stop!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Stop it! I said stop!
You want to go in? Come on, let's go.
Come back!
God!
There's a problem with the stroller.
Stop it! We are going to play
the game of silence.
Hi.
-Azan sent you. Can you help me?
-No.
Oh, no. Too much work. Sorry.
Wait. No, no. Leila,
you are going to hurt yourself.
Stop it.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Are you okay?
(Indistinct Chatter)
Okay, come.
Where's Leila?
She went to find mummy.
Leila?
Leila!
Leila!
Leila?
Leila!
It's not possible.
Leila!
Leila!
Hey!
Hey, the little girl, she is missing.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Have you seen a little girl.
Four years old.
-Is she here?
-No, she is not here.
Oh God!
-Okay. Take them.
-Yes.
Hold her.
Leila!
Leila!
Do you know a song
we could sing together?
No, I don't.
You must know a song.
If you are happy and you know it
clap your hands.
If you are happy and you know it
then you really want to show it.
If you are happy and you know it
clap your hands.
Leila!
Someone help!
Oh!
Leila!
Help!
Someone help!
If you are happy
and you know clap your hands.
If you are happy
and you know clap your hands.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Do something.
-Come on quick. I saw them running
to the swimming pool, man. That way.
What is going on? - It's
under control, madam. Don't worry.
Nina. Nina. Calm down, Nina.
-Calm down.
-Come here.
The paramedics are here. Let the
professionals do their work. Come.
Everything is going to be fine.
-What happened?
-No, no, no.
What happened? - Please let
the professionals do their job.
Nina, the child is
in the best possible hands now.
Go, sit there. Go.
It's nobody's fault, okay?
It was an accident, Nina.
I need to drive you girls
to the police station.
-They want to interrogate us all.
-What?
-Why?
-It's just a formality.
Something about insurance
or something.
But, obviously, you need to change.
Look, take a couple of minutes,
but I am waiting outside, okay?
It's a formality.
Okay.
Come on, Nina. Let's go.
Let's get changed.
Declined your identity.
Your name, please.
Nina Lafont.
Nationality? French.
Date and place of birth?
July 7th, 1994, Marseille.
What is the definition of your job
at the Blue Coral Hotel.
I work at the reception.
-What acting!
-Do your work?
Okay.
You continue.
I work at the reception.
And when did you accept the task
to attend the children?
I did not accept the task.
I demanded specifically not
to be left alone with them.
I am just not really comfortable
with children.
I have a kid brother and...
So, you have a little brother?
And your brother was there?
I didn't talk about my brother.
Will you bring the file?
So, have you consumed alcohol?
No.
Because the smell indicates that
you have consumed alcohol.
Oh, you mean just now?
Yes, I had a couple of drinks.
What is that drama about!
Here.
I had a couple of drinks, but
I would never drink when I work.
So, what was your responsibility
at this unfortunate event?
My responsibility?
I have no responsibility.
I mean, I tried my best
to look after three children
and I was left alone with them.
-I...
-You were left alone?
Yes.
Well, not at first, but after.
What do you mean? Yes or no?
This is so confusing.
Give me one answer.
Who lost the child?
What?
It was me.
Dare to say.
Miss, do you need water?
-You were alone, right?
-I am sorry.
She doesn't get it.
At 10 am, at the Blue Coral Hotel.
Were you there?
It's very difficult to...
How many times do I have to tell you?
Don't you get it?
I told her to not leave me alone,
but she did.
Yes, sir. - And then I was.
I took care. - Turn it off.
Can you explain me
what I am doing here?
Did you pay the bills?
What happened after that
when you accepted the task?
That's a good one.
Can I go now?
Yes, you can.
But can you just sign
this paper over here?
I don't understand what's written.
-I don't speak your language.
-It's just your statement.
And just sign here
and you are free to go.
Hey, how many times do
I have to tell you?
Huh?
You are right.
Now is just not the time for this,
my darling.
-Do you understand?
-Yes.
Wasn't so bad, huh?
Look, it's going to be fine, Nina.
It was an accident.
And I guess we just have to learn
from our mistakes and move on.
Right?
And the good news is that
the hospital says
they are going to release the child soon.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
And it's all good.
Hmm. Good.
You heard anything from the hospital?
No.
Do you think she is going to be okay?
God willing.
Azan?
Bonjour, Pierre.
Good afternoon, Azan.
Come, this way.
Nina, I had like to introduce
you to Monsieur Bordeaux
from the French Consulate.
-Bonjour.
-Bonjour.
Attorney par excellence,
Mr Yameen from Yameen & Co.
And of course, Mathara's Deputy
Superintendent of Police.
Can you please follow us?
Come, gentlemen.
It happened late last night.
What?
What happened? What happened?
It's called post-immersion syndrome
also known as dry drowning.
It's quite rare, but it does happen.
The doctors, they did all they could, but...
-No.
-She didn't make it.
No. This is...
Nina.
No...
Look, we still had hope.
No, no, no, no.
-Nina.
-No. - Our lawyer will explain.
A lawyer?
Why do I... Why do I need a lawyer?
A complaint has already been
filed by the family.
I received a copy of
the police report since
a French citizen was involved.
Let me give you my card.
You can call me if you need anything.
Yes, the same goes for me as well.
She died.
-The... The kid, the kid died.
-I know.
But Nina, it was an accident.
I was left alone with the kid
and you left me.
And now they are all on
my fucking back like...
Like all of this is my fault.
Why was... Why was I the only one
to see the lawyer?
Because I wasn't there
when it happened, Nina.
But that's why it happened.
It wasn't my job to be there.
It wasn't your job to be there?
It wasn't your job to be there?
It wasn't my job either!
It wasn't our fault.
It wasn't our fault.
Did you tell the police?
No, they didn't ask.
They didn't ask?
Something's not right.
Please, Nina, you have to trust me.
We are in this together, please.
The men, they are going
to want to cover their asses.
So we have to stick together.
Okay?
Please stop.
I will help you.
Come on, girl.
It's like falling off a horse.
You have to get back on your feet.
Nina, get dressed and go back to work.
Save those tips for now.
That's all that matters.
Five.
Umm... So let me see.
-I don't.
-Good morning.
Yes, yes, we can do this.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
The owner of the hotel is here.
He would like to meet with you.
-Now?
-Hmm.
So just this...
Nina, I would like
to introduce you to our patron.
Mr Mohammed Zahid.
Khush Takbar.
Have we made you feel like part
of the family here?
Umm... Yes.
Tell me what happened that day.
So...
So I was... So I was at
the reception working and
and management asked us to
take care of three children
and I told them that I
that I wasn't qualified for it.
-But they didn't care.
-Wasn't qualified?
I am sorry, Ms Lafont.
I don't recall you saying
anything like this.
That's a lie.
Nina. - Is that your best line
of defense, Ms Lafont?
You are a female.
How is it possible that you are
so incompetent with children?
And how could the manager
from my hotel
assign someone who is so incompetent
for such a task?
Well, that's exactly what happened.
Listen to me, Ms Lafont.
The lawsuit is not against you as
an individual.
These people don't even know
your name.
They could care less for a housekeeper.
I am not a housekeeper.
I... I work at the reception.
The lawsuit is directed at
the Blue Coral Hotel.
These people want money
and they want to ruin our reputation.
It's not about money. They lost a child.
One line of defense with one lawyer.
Trust me. Everything will be fine.
Do you understand?
I am asking, are you a listener,
Ms Lafont?
Yes, sir. She is a listener.
It's very wrong.
You should rest, Nina.
Maybe you need to speak to someone.
I have known Azan my entire life.
We grew up here together.
He comes from a very poor family,
and he is worked his way up.
Now he is
swimming with sharks, and he is
doing anything not to be eaten.
Introduced me to this. This man...
-Mohammed...
-Mohammed Zahid?
Yes.
Stay away from these people.
Tariq.
Okay. Trust me.
Why are we going down?
Oh, just for a bit of privacy.
There's another office over there.
Come.
Have you talked to Valeria? She...
I mean,
she works at the at the concierge.
Valeria, she is not in the file.
She is not in the file.
Hmm?
What do you mean, she is not in the file?
She wasn't around when
the accident happened.
Well, technically, she wasn't.
This is... This is fucked up.
I mean, what am I supposed to do here?
I don't understand.
Just to go over a few of the facts
of the incident that occurred.
-Please.
-I think I want to go.
I don't feel good here. Sorry.
There's nothing legally holding
you back in the country.
I don't see why you couldn't be back
home in time for Christmas.
-Can we make that happen, Azan?
-Sure.
You can always take
a two-week holiday and be back.
It will be good to spend time
with your family, right?
Hmm.
That's perfect.

Hello.
Okay.
I have just recently been informed
of this police statement.
It reads, I was called upon
to look after the children.
I accepted the job where
I was fully aware I would be alone
for a period where I lost sight
of the child.
That's... That's not what I said.
I never said that, and you know that.
You know I never said that, huh?
Is this or is this not your signature?
Yeah, but these are not my words.
Where's the rest of the deposition?
I want to see it.
There's also a recording.
We can ask for the recording.
Rashid, please. - I have a copy
of the recording right here.
We can listen to it.
Give me one answer.
Who lost the child? Huh?
It was me.
Where's the rest of it?
-That's not the only thing I said.
-Ms Lafont.
The charge would be death
by negligence.
-Ms Lafont.
-You dragged me into this.
You are the one who told me
I didn't need a lawyer.
And we will take care of it.
Your words are being used against you.
Where do I risk?
-15 years in prison.
-That's what he said.
I am here.
I am not going to let you down.
Well, if you are here
and you don't want to let me down
you have got to go back to the police
and you have got to make
a new deposition.
You have to tell them
what really happened.
I can't do that without speaking
to Azan first.
Why? What is it going to do with him?
Because we need him.
He is a fucking liar. Fuck him.
I think you are under a lot of stress.
Okay I see... - And it's hard
for you to see straight.
So what you need to concentrate on now
is how you go back to Marseille.
I don't want to be a runaway.
I am innocent.
Of course.
There.
Please go back.
Next.
Show me your passport.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen
travelling with flight AF301 to Paris.
Next.
Passengers seated would be...
Show me your passport. Which country?
Wait here.
What's on her passport?
Her passport is not cleared, sir.
Step on side.
-Follow me, please.
-Step on side, please.
-Step on the side.
-Wait for me.
Have a safe flight. Thank you.
Give me your name.
Nina Lafont.
-Are you hearing me?
-Wait. Wait for me.
You are not going anywhere.
Valeria.
(Indistinct Chatter)
-Birth place?
-199...
Sorry, Marseille.
How long have you been here?
You will need an official
authorization to leave the territory.
But I have an authorization.
I mean, do you want to call
the manager of my hotel?
Why are you standing there? Tell her.
Miss, you cannot leave today.
Hello,
you have reached Pearrie Beadoux.
French consul, please leave
your message after the...
Hello. You have reached Rashid. Please
leave a message after the tone.
One, two, three.
-Yeah. Merry Christmas.
-Cheers.
Cheers. Cheers.
Yeah, man. Merry Christmas, everybody.
Umm.
Hello, police.
They
took my passport.
I have no clue.
I am stuck.
Mom, help.
Please help me.
Mama.
Hmm.
How many times have I told you not
to hang up on me, huh?
-What the hell is happening here?
-Come.
So, what nest did you get
yourself into? - Mom.
Where are we going? Don't you live
at the hotel or something?
Keep walking.
It was an accident.
They had no fucking lifeguards.
They had no fence.
It's not a public pool, mom.
It's a five-star hotel.
Oh, yeah, a five-star hotel.
They make you live like fucking rats.
Hey sweetie.
We need to get your passport back and.
You need to return to Marseille.
It's not been taken care of.
-I don't know what else to do.
-It's been taken care of.
It's not been taken care of, Nina.
Please, don't give me crap.
I flew all the way here, okay?
You are in a foreign country.
The police took your passport.
You might as well be in prison.
Can you not say that?
It's actually giving me anxiety.
-I am sorry.
-I can't. - Don't, don't, don't.
I am sorry, okay? I am sorry.
This is a very emotional thing.
You need to take some days off, okay?
I am, I am working.
I cannot take any days off.
Later, we'll meet a lawyer.
I already have a lawyer.
I am in good hands. Trust me.
What lawyer? Well the,
the, the hotel lawyer.
Listen, if you were in good hands
you would have been on that plane.
-Are you kidding me?
-Please.
I have someone who is been
highly recommended, okay?
Yeah? And who recommended him?
Some guy from Marseille.
I don't know.
He had a legal problem here.
He, he knows what he is talking about.
Anyway, I am not going to get
into it. It's a really long story.
But listen, I have learned
a lot about this place.
It's like the prisons are fucked up in it.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
-I think he is over here.
-Tea.
Don't worry.
Go along there and say hello.
Huh?
Ah! Mr Manique.
-Hello.
-Hello, I am so glad you are here.
This is, this is my daughter Nina.
Let, let's go in back, okay?
What is his name? I forget.
-Zaik.
-Zaik, he said
he wanted to help her.
Do you know him?
Zaik. Mohamed Zaik.
He doesn't help anyone besides
his own blood.
He is the head of a very powerful family.
They are extremely well connected.
They own the Blue Coral.
They own many other resorts.
So many islands.
So.
This unfortunate incident, it's not
going to be a simple matter.
Our justice system is hard,
especially for women.
You see, people, they come here
they get fooled by the transparency
of the lagoon.
But underneath, there's darkness.
We locals know this.
Secrets are easily hidden there.
I told my daughter it was
a bad idea to come here.
-And now look where we are.
-Sorry, issue.
-Okay.
-Hey.
Not to worry, huh?
I still have good hope in justice.
But unfortunately, I do have to go now.
I have a long day in court.
There's a man who relies on me
to save him from death penalty.
-Really?
-Yes.
One thing, Nina. Don't lose hope.
It's important.
Are you sure about this, Mr Manique?
Yes, I am sure.
Thank you. - I really like him
a lot. He is a good guy.
First, we have to go
to the police and make
a declaration of loss of document
and then we will go
to the French consulate
and get a new passport. - No,
I am not lying to the police, mom.
-Stop it.
-And I know the consul.
Why did I come here
if you are not listening to me?
Listen to me.
Do you want to be stuck here forever?
Oh my God, that's so bad.
Thank you.
-Did you get it?
-Yeah.
Let me see.
It's too late for the consulate now.
Let's go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
There are many things that
seem to be missing.
I will be needing those back.
I can make you a copy if you like.
Thank you.
-Who is Lina?
-Lina is the housekeeper.
She is the one who found the child
in the pool.
And where is she now?
Has she been interrogated by the police?
And why wasn't Lina at the...
Lina at the... - Nina.
I know. Nina at the reconstruction
of the fact.
Wait a second. What reconstruction?
Just shortly after the incident, Nina.
And you remember
the fragile state you were in?
So the doctor actually advised us
not to bother you.
-I never saw a doctor.
-She never did.
It's clearly a conflict of interest.
You are representing the Blue Coral.
The doctor doesn't seem to want to take
any responsibility in this tragic incident.
And my client here refuses
to be held responsible.
That's what we are trying to say.
I think you are a bit mistaken. You see.
Nina is very much part of our family.
Quit the family bullshit.
Nina has family sitting right next to her.
And it's not the Blue Coral. Okay?
Rashid, would you be kind enough
to inform Mrs Lafont that
we need to keep
a united front to prove that
there was no crime,
that there was no negligence
-and this was purely an accident.
-Oh, my God.
Azan is absolutely correct.
It is the Canadian parents
that we are up against.
So why is this Valeria girl off the hook?
Huh? Was it that they both
were assigned to the job?
She was forced to get off the case
and she signed
a false deposition to cover
to cover Mr Azan, actually.
Signed a false deposition?
What nonsense is this? - Yeah.
Because it's his girlfriend.
-No.
-Okay, that's it.
Hey! Where's Lina, the housekeeper?
I have to find her.
She left the hotel straight
after the police reconstruction.
Okay, so I was
under so much stress that day
but I totally forgot to tell the police.
But I remember now asking her
to help me with the children.
Azan had a leave.
She is married to his first cousin.
He can't afford to have anyone in
this accident linked to him.
-But why me?
-Because you are a foreigner.
He didn't plan anything against you.
He just thought he could get off easier.
He is like a mouse trapped
in a cage trying to get out.
Okay.
-I will help you.
-Yeah?
I will help you try and find her.
Thank you.
-This way, please.
-Thank you.
The consul is waiting for you.
Please follow me. - Thank you.
-Consul?
-Madam Lafont.
-Enchante.
-Sorry, I kept you waiting.
Nina?
Uh... What's he doing here?
Oh, I asked him to join us.
He knows this case better than anyone.
Please, have a seat.
Thank you.
Hello, sir, can I help you?
Sorry, sir,
there's a private meeting going on.
Mr Manique?
A private meeting with my client.
Mr Manique, our lawyer.
Thank you for coming, sir.
Please, have a seat. Thank you.
Okay, gentlemen,
I think we can all agree.
Nina needs to go home with me now.
Yes, and we are working on that.
And I understand you are desperate
but she cannot do anything illegal.
Your client, Miss Lafont,
went to the police
and made a false declaration
of loss of document.
They took my passport.
What am I supposed to do?
She called you a million times.
You never called her back.
You never answered.
Trust me, we are doing everything
in our power to help.
Now, we have come up with
a plan we all agree with.
-Yes.
-The best thing
we have thought this over.
We have had many meetings
with the board. - Yeah.
The best thing would be
for you to plead guilty.
What?
I am innocent. There's no way
I am pleading guilty. - Nina.
If you accept this,
we will be able to intervene
and have you serve your time in France.
You cannot choose who to condemn.
This is not justice.
Where is it? Ah!
Okay.
I was able to get a copy of the file.
I am not sure it's complete, though.
Can we go through it together?
I think my daughter should accept
the plea deal.
What?
I think you should accept the deal
-and get your ass back to France.
-No, no, no.
-I am not staying here to visit you.
-I won't.
There's no way I am going to prison.
I hate this fucking island
and it's driving me crazy.
-It's driving you crazy?
-Yes.
-Yeah?
-Can I have another, please?
No, no, no, no, no, no. I think she is fine.
-I would advise you both.
-It's driving me crazy.
I don't need your advice.
Thank you very much.
Hey, shut the fuck up, Nina.
Let this man help you.
You don't know
what you are talking about.
You always fuck up.
Nina, stop!
(Indistinct Chatter)
Nina! Someone's waiting for you outside.
Hey.
Oh, my God. Please, I need to sit.
I am so hungover.
Sit.
Please, I can't get up.
I don't know what to do.
I am totally broke.
But I don't want to leave you here.
Mr Manique said he could get me
a job. - Mom.
I wish I could be the ones dealing
with these fucking assholes.
Mom. - What happened with
this girl was not your fault.
What happened with
your brother wasn't your fault.
But I...
You were always there for him.
-Okay, you need to forgive yourself.
-Mom.
If you want to help me
you have to leave.
You have to.
I am begging you.
Okay.
I love you.
You listen to Mr Manique, okay?
He is a smart guy.
-Nice party.
-That way please.
Thank you.
Coming. Coming.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Five, four, three.
-Hello.
-Two.
Listen to me.
Hello.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello.
Hello, sir.
May we come inside for a minute?
-We need to have a word with madam.
-No.
-Please.
-No. - Only two minutes.
-Is madam in?
-Who is it? - No.
-Madam, please.
-Who is it?
We have to discuss something
important. Only two minutes. - Please.
-No, no, no.
-Two minutes.
Thank you.
When I saw, she was still alive.
-You know, struggling...
-Yeah. - In water.
But I called, I screamed, help, help.
But nobody came. I ran to get
-gardener.
-Gardener. Yeah.
Sorry, ma'am.
They came very late.
Her lungs had filled with water.
Her lungs had filled with water.
It was too late.
-So she could have been saved.
-Yeah.
But that day, because of the holiday
there were no medics,
no professional CPR.
Oh shit!
Did you tell the police?
-Did you tell the police?
-Police, no. Azan
didn't want hotel boss.
So I told Azan, I no swim.
-Yeah?
-But Azan told me
to keep quiet, you know, tell lie.
But you have to testify.
Azan is part of the family.
Yeah, but he will only be blamed a little.
She is saying that
Azan is part of her family.
But I am saying he is only going
to get some blame.
You are going to go to jail for your life.
She can go to jail.
Please.
Madam, please.
Okay.
Will you do it?
-She is saying yes.
-Yeah. - She is saying yes.
Thank you, madam. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
Nina, this is good news.
You are here again soon,
and I can fight this.
You are innocent and
I will prove it now. - Yes.
Yes, we can prove it.
Yes, we have to win.
What do you mean we have to win?
We are going to win.
I told your mother I would look after you
like you are my own daughter.
Thank you.
No make-up, no short dress.
No part of body showing.
Be on time.
The judge who is been appointed
to the case
is very strict.
Be polite, you stick to the facts.
And you speak only
when being asked a question.
We have a key witness.
It's going to be okay.
So, Ms Lafont, I see from
your file that you only worked
110 days at the Blue Coral Hotel.
Yes.
Yes, Your Honour, about four months.
It didn't take long for you to become
involved in a criminal matter.
Your Honour is referring to
the charge of death by negligence.
Do you have a prior record, Ms Lafont?
No, no prior misdemeanors.
Why do you keep on mentioning,
insisting on the fact that
you have a problem with children?
I never said that. I am just
not qualified in child care.
So what will you do when you have
your own children?
I don't want children.
Why not?
Is that a crime?
Manique, I have to ensure that she
had no intention to hurt a child.
I would never hurt a child,
Your Honour, never.
What is your family situation, Ms Lafont?
I live in France with my mother,
and I am single.
Oh, I see. You are religious.
No.
It's a good thing. Women here stay in
their family until they are married.
Do you have any plans
to take a husband? - No.
You are not interested in men?
I just
not in the near future.
A man's protection can be
very useful, Ms Lafont.
Manique, anything you want to add?
Yes, Your Honour. We have
a key witness who can testify.
Oh, good. Where is he?
She should be here any minute.
Well, I don't have all day.
Ms Lafont,
it's very clear to me you simply
failed in your responsibility, didn't you?
-I am sorry.
-Hmm.
-So you are admitting?
-No.
I think about her every day
and I know that
an apology doesn't do much
that it won't bring her back.
But.
I need you to understand that
it was an accident.
I, I beg you to hear me, Your Honour.
Look, a drowning accident
could happen to anyone
in or around a pool.
You are not a lifeguard.
I don't necessarily see
why your personal responsibility
should be engaged here.
And as you know, Your Honour
all serious injuries that happen at a pool.
Must be reported to the Department
of Health within 24 hours
and this has not been done.
And we can prove this at our next
audience with our witness.
Well, yes, a witness testimony
will certainly help
to move things forward here, huh?
Ms Lafont, go back to work,
be patient, and
you should be back with
your family very soon.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I am very sorry, but you haven't found
the happiness here that
you were expecting to find.
Savita, where's madam Lina?
All the furniture is gone.
She is gone. She is gone. She is gone.
-What is happening here?
-She is gone, Nina.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hey, baby. How's it going over there?
Nothing much.
You haven't called me since I left.
-I had to call Mr Manique.
-Well, I was busy.
He told me he is confident
you will win the case.
Okay, I got to go.
-Okay, I got to go. I am in a rush.
-If you do not speak to me
I am going to keep calling you.
I am fine. Everything is fine.
I just can't talk right now, so.
-Call me.
-I will call you back.
-Sure?
-I promise. Bye. Bye.
Let me be clear about this.
The responsibility for the children
was clearly given to Ms Lafont.
No.
No? What do you mean, no?
If we go back to that tragic morning
one element, the most important one,
has been disregarded, no?
And that is?
The mother specifically asked
for two babysitters to look
after their children.
Why? Why do you think?
Oh, because she knew the task
of taking care at the same time of a baby
and two young, hyperactive girls
was practically impossible
for only one person.
That is why Mr Azan Nasir
imposed on my client
-the task of assisting...
-Imposed?
Valeria Tejedor.
She was called back by you
to fulfil her vacant desk at the concierge.
And Nina Lafont was then left alone
with all three children.
Only the management should
be held responsible.
Here.
Look what I received.
We would love to have you for
dinner. Are you available?
-Abdul Himawan, the judge.
-Yeah.
You think I should go?
Definitely you should go.
You don't want to upset him.
What do you mean
I don't want to upset him?
This man holds your future in his hands.
Hey, Nina. You can trust this judge.
He has a wife and child.
He is a very, very serious man.
Hello.
Come, please. Come.
Meet my wife, Amal,
and my daughter, Serena.
Nice meeting you.
So tell me, how are things at the hotel?
I, I try to focus on work.
Hmm. Well, work, you know
a healthy distraction could be
a good thing. - Yes.
I am, I am sorry to ask you this
but do you know when
I will get my passport back?
Usually it can take several months
when a passport is confiscated
but you are lucky you are
in good hands with me, huh?
Don't worry.
Things will go smooth and fast.
-Okay?
-Yeah.
Ah, would you like some fruit?
Huh? A little dessert
to round things off. - Thank you.
Please.
Are you, are you sure?
-Yes, absolutely.
-I can take a taxi if you...
No way, huh?
Look, I could never leave
a lady unattended.
And besides, you know, driving at night
is my absolute real pleasure. I love it.
Hop in.
You can see all the stars up there.
All the stars.
Sir, can you drive me home, please?
Don't worry, I will get you
home safe and sound, Nina.
Sir, sir, can you drive me home, please?
-Do you see the stars in the sky?
-Sir. No!
-That's how you want to play?
-No!
Get here...
I am... I am joking. I don't want you...
-No!
-Nina! Where are you going?
Nina!
Hello?
Hello.
-Nina, what's going on?
-Fucking bitch!
Nina, I can't hear you. What happened?
Talk to me.
Nina, what is going on?
Nina, what's going on?
-The judge tried to rape me.
-God!
Okay.
You are far away, but you are not alone.
We are going to find a solution, okay?
Calm down. Breathe, okay?
It's going to be okay, my sister. Okay?
Drat!
Excuse me. I have heard you quit.
Are you okay?
Nina, it's not an accident, that's for sure.
No, I have to get out of here.
What are you talking about?
Get out of there?
I have to escape.
Do you think you can escape like that?
Besides, you are on a fucking
island, you know that?
Listen, you have to find me
a fake passport.
Julien, I am begging you.
Attention all passengers
traveling Flight SW392
to Paris airport.
Please be advised that.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Next.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Attention passengers, traveling to Paris.
This is the final boarding call.
Proceed to gate 3 immediately.
It went wrong at the airport.
The police who questioned me,
they were there.
They would have recognized me.
Escape by sea.
Huh?
-By sea?
-Yeah, by sea.
A sail boat of ours travels that
southern route twice a week.
What do you mean, a sailboat of yours?
Hey, do you want
to end up like your lawyer?
But I...
I am not ending up in Marseille,
on a boat full of hulls.
You won't make it to Marseille.
Stay focused, please.
We just need to get you out
of territorial waters
and then you will take a plane to go back.
But it's the Indian Ocean, Julien!
Do you understand that? It's huge!
No. - Don't overthink it, Nina!
You don't have a choice,
This is your last chance!
Hey, sis, you know the sea,
you will make it.
The package I had delivered
to you is a GPS phone.
The code is your birth date.
Hide it until you leave and
in the meantime, stay calm.
Keep a low profile and try to sleep
as much as you can.
You are going to need it.
Head south for two days
and someone will be waiting
for you on board the sailboat.
Thank you.
(Prayer)
(Prayer)
Wake up!
What do we have here?
Hey!
Search the place.
Get up.
Get dressed.
Who is there?
Look what we got here.
-It's...
-What is it?
It's not mine. I just...
Somebody... ouch!
No!
No!
Somebody broke into my room.
Where did you get it from?
You are hurting me.
Leave! Now!
You are hurting me. Please.
Help!
Your phone.
And your necklace too.
And other...
Please.
Yes, please.
Oh dear!
You can go.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Order.
Sir, sir. I have to make a phone call.
Sir, I have...
I have the right to one phone call.
(Indistinct Chatter)
Hello?
It's Nina.
Can I get you something to drink?
Just water.
Wife and daughter are out of town.
So it's nice and quiet.
Why don't you have a shower,
freshen up?
There's a silk robe in there for you.
Yes.
Beautiful in silk.
Yes.
You are going to give me what's always...
Fucking bitch!
-Hello.
-Hello.
Nina.
You gotta help me.
I gotta leave the island tonight.
Oh!
Get her!
Get her!
Hurry!
-Go.
-From there.
She is not here.
Look there.
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
(Indistinct Chatter)
Are you sure?
Check around.
Sir, she is not on the pier.
Search everywhere.
I have got
two or three days of food and water.
Two jerrycans of gas.
Where is the sleeping bag?
Remember, you need
at least five hours of sleep.
The winds can get strong
and most important. - Yeah...
Remember to always head south.
Okay?
South, yes.
Thank you.
Wait, wait.
Go.
O God!
Have mercy!
Search there.
Come.
What are you doing?
What is the meaning of this?
Who has authorised this?
Do you know this woman?
Your Id please.
Have you seen this woman?
Keep looking.
Breaking news.
Nina Lafont fled from the prison.
She is on the run!
She could be dangerous.
If you have any information
please inform the police.
Come on!
Nina!
Hey!
Julien!
Come on!
That's it!
Go for it!
Yes! Yes!
Whoa!
