Indomptables (2025) Movie Script
1
Close the door. Sit down.
My grandfather hid in the bush
during the war,
so this country could be independent,
so you and I could go about freely.
Now, you guys hide and sneak back
in the middle of the night.
Where from? I don't care.
It's just that...
Don't.
Son, these are dangerous times.
You must be prepared.
I was your age when I buried my father
and my little brother.
Death,
it doesn't impress me.
It's like I'm immune to it.
If I have to die today or tomorrow,
I won't be scared.
But I won't be here forever.
If I die, you'll be the ones in charge.
Do you hear me?
You know the singer Marvin Gaye?
Yes.
Do you know how he died?
No.
His father killed him.
UNTAMABLE
Based on the documentary
"A CRIME IN ABIDJAN"
You have my money!
Pass me the mush.
There goes our tax money.
Did you hear?
Emergency call to all operating units.
Stay alert.
We received an anonymous phone call
informing us of the murder
of officer Albert Kounde.
He was shot by bandits
carrying handguns.
Turn him over.
OK.
This is where the bullet came out.
He was shot from the front,
at close range.
The bullet was the same caliber
as his service pistol.
Apparently,
that's what he was shot with.
He couldn't survive
a wound near the heart.
He didn't stand a chance.
Really...
What's that?
Nothing.
Really?
That's the problem,
I don't feel it anymore.
It' seems normal.
You ran out of tears.
In our line of work,
our pains can be
our greatest strength.
Boss,
thank you for what you did
while I was mourning.
I was very touched.
We're all fathers.
The day I'm the one lying
on one of those tables,
I hope you'll shed a tear
for your boss.
What are you talking about?
You're still young.
Death asks people their age?
No, boss.
We still have work to do.
- What's the bush knife for?
- For security.
Security?
Two bush knives?
Two guards
are in charge of security.
- Were they used to commit the crime?
- Not at all.
- You had them before?
- Yes.
- Over there?
- There.
You showed up at 8pm,
what happened?
- I was told...
- By who?
My wife.
She said someone got shot.
I went out to take a look
and I found him
leaning against the car.
Where was the head?
- It was...
- Show us the position.
Don't sit in the blood,
move aside.
We must preserve the scene.
He was leaning like this.
- His head?
- It looked left.
The head was looking left.
His nose and mouth were bleeding.
My neighbor and I
took him to the hospital.
- Was he still breathing?
- No.
His wife was in a car out front.
All we said to her
was to go get some rest.
This was caused by the impact.
- The internal bleeding...
- Right.
His head being on the side,
the blood ran all the way down.
- Here.
- Exactly, all the way here...
It was...
All eyes are set on Cameroon.
Our international champion,
Francis Ngannou
is getting ready for a fight
already deemed legendary.
- You OK, Lambert?
- Yes, boss.
No doubt there will be blood
and there will be beer!
No clothes on?
I didn't have school.
So you just got up? It's past 1pm.
You didn't even shower.
I did last night...
Go get dressed!
Go to school with bad breath!
Every week, we get a call
because you're late.
We don't pay for you to sleep in!
I need to go to the pharmacy,
but traffic is awful
at the Jean Moulin junction,
so I can't be bothered.
Odette?
Where's my Marvin Gaye CD?
I left it by the HiFi
and it disappeared.
What would the kids do with it?
Nobody listens to CDs anymore
except you.
Daddy?
Can we get ice cream later?
We'll see. Focus on your lessons first.
We're off.
- OK.
- Good.
Is that a promise?
Yes. We'll see.
Don't worry about it.
Arthur, come on.
Ngannou is done.
You find that funny?
We're the Continent,
Ngannou is a national treasure
but we have to admit
Ngannou is washed.
Even I could beat Ngannou, now!
Did you take time to eat
with your chattering?
It's the Ngannou fight
that keeps us talking!
- What's your prediction?
- Leave me alone.
Thank God!
This guy earns millions
to punch people.
We work our asses off
to save lives!
Spare me!
Do you know the cost of a birthday cake
at the French bakery?
It's crazy!
You're asking for it!
- What do you mean?
- Are you rich like Kim Kardashian?
Why would you go
to that kind of shop?
I was doing it for my daughter!
A mama in my neighborhood
makes cheaper cakes anyway.
- It means more than Ngannou!
- The problem is you're jealous.
What would I be jealous about?
What channel is the fight on?
Now, you're interested!
I'm not interested!
I'm only asking!
Get yourself an IPTV,
like everybody else.
With all the illegal channels?
How much?
- See? You're interested.
- I just want to know!
Guys, Mrs Kounde has just arrived.
That woman is a real lady!
If I died, my ex would be drinking beer
all over town
to celebrate my death!
- Patou, you're staying.
- What?
I'm telling you to stay here.
You know why we asked you to come here.
You were the only person at the scene.
Given the emotional impact,
try to collect yourself
and tell us exactly what happened.
Forgive me.
CLEMENCE:
You kicked Adeline out?!
Is taking care of your daughter
too much for you?
You're useless!
Sorry. I'm listening.
We parked by the gate of the garage...
Albert got out...
A few moments later,
a Toyota showed up
and parked right in front of us.
So, there were four men
in that car in front of you?
Yes.
Could you identify them?
No.
I couldn't see anything in the dark.
Nothing.
In the dark?
OK. Go on.
They got out of their car...
They were smoking a cigarette...
Do you mind speaking louder?
It's a delicate situation for me too.
Let's all make an effort
to be more intelligible.
They entered the courtyard.
They didn't come near you?
No.
I remained seated in the car.
Right.
You never got out?
- No.
- OK.
When Albert put his hand
on the car door,
they surrounded him...
The man standing behind him
started pointing a gun at his back.
That's when I said,
"Albert!
Be careful!"
A few moments later,
I heard the gunshot.
After that, they left...
Thank you.
Yes.
- You'll be all right.
- Yes.
Today, our minister of justice
and state representatives
attended the transfer of the body
of a police officer
who was murdered by bandits.
The Presidency is close to its people,
and has always shared
its joys and sorrows.
It expressed its support
to the family of Albert Kounde.
State officials and myself
wish to express
our condolences to the family
of the deceased,
an outstanding officer,
a devoted servant of Cameroon.
I also wish to inform you
that our brave elements
have already taken on this case.
These vicious murderers
will soon be found
and severely punished.
I will see to it myself.
Sorry, boss.
Modeste is at the front door.
- Who invited him?
- He's your cousin, isn't he?
Zachary, come on.
What?
I didn't invite him.
I don't like him,
he always comes while we eat.
He puts me off.
What does he want?
He says he can't get a hold of the boss.
See?
What for?
I told Modeste to go back
to the village and fix the house.
But all he does
is come to town for beer!
He can't sacrifice his life
for this house.
There's no work at the village.
- He has opportunities here.
- He's useless. Period.
Pass me the bobolo.
Sorry, I'm coming.
Eat.
You know an officer was killed nearby?
I know.
But now, I walk the straight and narrow.
I run my pharmacy.
Selling deadly degraded drugs
is the straight and narrow?
Be careful, kid.
This is serious,
it may have consequences.
How do I know you're not involved?
I understand but...
If you understand, get talking.
You often get involved
in shady business,
so speak up.
Well...
My hairdresser, Emile...
Emile?
He's the kid who cuts my hair.
He also does the robbers' hair.
- That night, he cut Putin's hair.
- Who?
Putin...
Like the president of Russia.
Putin slept out
on the night of the crime.
Is this some kind of joke?
That whole Putin story,
I believe it 50/50.
Give me something.
Papa...
The night of the crime,
Putin had a haircut from Emile.
When he reached for his bag to pay,
Emile saw the gun.
Emile is my boy, he wouldn't lie to me.
On your feet!
Get up! Up!
Hands on your head!
Over there!
What's your name? Your name!
Celestin Pagal.
Don't play stupid, your gang name?
- I swear, Celestin Pagal.
- Are you Putin?
We know you, don't mess with us!
Got it? Don't mess with us!
Don't play stupid.
We didn't just get here, we know you.
Your name?
What's your name?
Take a look behind the gas cylinder.
Nothing.
Putin?
Where's that money from?
I keep it for my mother.
Who gave it to you?
It's money from work.
Where do you work?
I do odd jobs like street sweeping
or collecting trash.
How much is there?
- 38,000 francs.
- 38,000?
Correct.
Keep this.
Boss?
You rob graves?
Where are the guns?
Speak!
You don't want to talk?
- The guns?
- I don't have any!
- Mr Pagal!
- You have the guns!
Where are the guns?
I need a branch!
From that plum tree!
You've been robbing tombs?
Oh God, I don't deserve to die!
Bring him to me!
Move your leg!
- Does it get into your head?
- I don't steal!
I don't steal!
Why are you so stupid?
Aren't you Cameroonian?
- I am.
- There...
So, you're smart.
Only Nigerians get whooped
like that, right?
Right.
If you're involved in something bad,
say you didn't do it alone.
Now, your friends left,
and you're paying the price.
You're paying for everyone
and that's stupid.
You have to tell me what happened.
We know everything,
so don't be stubborn.
Hey...?
What's wrong with this country?
How can we work in those conditions?
We're wasting time
with a small-time robber.
Get to work. What are you doing?
Take his place.
You, come here.
What's up, guys?
Hey, big guy!
Yo bro, what's up?
- The power's out?
- It's been out since noon.
Sup, bro?
Stop pretending, come here.
In memory of our beloved son,
Herve Sylvestre Etame,
missed yet never forsaken.
Look what the power outage did...
Happy birthday, princess!
Mel Gibson is a great actor.
The Americans have the best ideas.
Where have you been at this hour?
At Colin's place.
Colin?
Did you eat there?
We did our homework and...
Answer my question.
Right.
How many times must I tell you
not to eat out?
Do you even understand me when I speak?
You think I enjoy having
my lunch break at home?
This country is dangerous.
You took your little brother
for a walk at night
when there's school tomorrow.
Arthur, don't start me up.
We don't need any of this.
Your mother is pregnant,
so be considerate.
Mommy, is it true?
You're expecting a baby?
Do you use your brain?
Life is dangerous.
Don't just stand there in silence.
You had a gun, didn't you?
I saw him jump through the window.
I screamed, "Thief!"
and he pointed a gun at me.
He broke in through the window,
and took
some of my daughter's clothes.
The shoes you're wearing
were for my son!
You stole them by the entrance,
right?
I confirm,
he's a bandit!
He stole our cattle!
You didn't tell us about that.
You're a thief!
Was it three pigs that you stole?
You were wearing
that same Rihanna t-shirt!
You brutalized me!
You even scare the kids away!
Let's go the other way,
they're everywhere.
We can't go this way.
Beat it!
Thief! Thief!
I'm going to kill someone!
Go away!
Thief!
Thief!
Beat it!
Hello?
Excuse me?
Hello, commissioner.
Headmaster.
Have a seat.
Thank you for coming.
I know you're very busy.
It's fine, I wasn't far.
Like I said...
Young Arthur is causing us trouble.
He had a fight with a schoolmate.
After the fight,
regrettable words were used
against the teacher who broke it up.
What words?
What words?
I had to interrupt a day at work,
so I won't have any of that silence.
Speak the words.
"Motherfucker."
"Son of a bitch."
Where did you learn
that kind of language?
- Get up!
- Easy.
Look at your father!
You think you're tough?
Sit!
- Calm down.
- I'm calm!
I know what I'm doing!
We live under the same roof.
Here or at home, this ends today!
You have my word! Imbecile!
Commissioner.
Arthur has expressed sincere regrets.
I'm sure things will be fine.
Let me say this,
you and I are respectable men.
Indeed.
We must honor our responsibilities.
When I say that my son
is a part of your institution,
I consider him to be your child.
So, if words won't do,
punish him.
I'm telling you! Punish him!
- Commissioner...
- It's not a problem for me.
You have my blessing!
We have methods of our own.
Sure, you have your methods
and I have mine.
But mine work.
I'm on the street every day
and I hear that kind of street talk!
No "motherfucker" or "son of a bitch"
with me!
I drove 30 minutes
for some misbehaving ignorant!
And I had to justify myself!
I'm not just anyone!
If you want to act like a thug,
I'll show you!
Just wait and see!
Look at me. Who told you about this?
Look at me... Look at me!
Who told you?
Who told you?
Put your hands down!
Why are you crying?
Why?
Keep your head down!
Who told you?
Don't try to woo us!
Grab him!
Have mercy...
Shut up!
Mercy for who?
Look at him.
Let me tell you something, my friend.
We're all black.
We have the same skin, you and I.
But if I decide to kill you,
as a policeman,
I don't risk anything.
I have a free pass!
What is it?
Sorry, boss.
Your son forgot this.
Forgot? How?
He left.
Good evening, boss.
Shame may mean nothing to you,
but don't make me look bad at work!
Understand? Don't make me look bad!
You imbecile!
Don't pretend to study,
you won't fool me!
See this phone?
There! There!
I'm the dumb one?
Are you insulting me?
Cut it off!
Leave him! Stop that!
- In my own house?
- Stop!
- Calm down!
- Leave me!
Don't overreact and traumatize the kids!
You're protecting a disgraceful thug!
- He's my son!
- Don't point!
- What are you going to do?
- Odette!
Don't yell at me!
- Lower your hand!
- No!
- Mouf!
- Mouf yourself!
Go away!
You're a dog who can't protect his kids!
Psycho!
Zachary!
Is he gone?
I'm talking to you.
Zachary?
This isn't a game!
That kid...
Great!
Stay outside, like your sister!
You don't know how lucky you are.
I eat the dirt!
Stay out of this house!
If you kill my son,
you'll have to kill me first.
- Leave me alone.
- No.
Leave it!
No way!
- Don't scream.
- I'll scream if I want!
- Close the door.
- Leave him!
Beat it!
Who put you in charge here?
- Your madness has to stop.
- OK.
Make it fast!
Bring me my son back!
Go find him on the street!
- What?
- He's the one who left!
Go look for him!
Bring me my son back!
- Psycho!
- Sure, I'm a psycho.
A house of scandal, what a disgrace!
Bring me my son back!
- How are you?
- Good.
Hello, commissioner.
Move!
Like I said,
we were told about a suspect,
so we quickly carried out an operation
to arrest him.
We roughed him up a little,
he wasn't making much sense,
but we don't think he did it.
Yet, he admitted
committing three hold-ups.
So...
We look for someone and find another...
He's a still a bandit
who must be taken into custody.
OK.
We're going to need results very soon.
You reached Adeline,
please leave a message.
Get off my back!
I'm working. Thank you!
Unbelievable.
Dany, come here.
Did you write this?
Yes.
"Baby,
"It's just you and me,
"I'm 'onna play it dirty,
"The way you like it,
"The way you want it,
Dougie style...
"I'm taking you to heaven."
So that's what you're into?
Salute me.
Salute me.
I'm telling you,
lay off your iPhone...
Every day, wham, bam, boom!
How is it even useful?
Go help your mother.
SISTER
Juju, what's up?
So, if it's your brother calling,
you answer.
Jesus...
- Listen.
- Leave us alone.
- 100 francs a bottle.
- We're good.
- 100 francs a bottle.
- No thanks.
We could die
in this country's traffic jams.
Unpaved roads
cause all the traffic.
What can we do?
It's the van over there.
What's going on?
- Get out.
- You're intimidating me in my country?
Get out!
Commissioner Billong.
What's going on?
- Thank God you're here!
- Keep calm!
It's him!
My van hit a pothole.
He helped pull it out,
now he's asking for money!
Did I?
Did I ask for money?
You asked for "something",
we all know what that means.
You're blocking the whole city.
Stay with the lady.
Follow me.
People like him
hold the country back.
- Easy.
- I swear!
We'll handle the situation.
Do you know who I am?
Who my husband is?
- My friend, empty your pockets.
- What?
Empty them.
Quickly.
- That's it?
- Yes.
Don't make me
humiliate you in public.
It's the pay I have left
to feed the kids.
Many of us have kids.
You have a salary.
And yet, you make her pay for your help?
What mindset is that?
You make us look bad!
You tarnish
the police's reputation.
Daddy?
Can you sign my homework?
Let me see.
That's good, carry on like this.
- You hear me?
- Yes.
Give me the pen.
You deserve a treat.
Let's have ice cream later.
Yes.
Smile, you're the one
who asked for ice cream.
I had some for snack.
You didn't wait for me?
It was our time together.
Yes.
Who did you have it with?
Answer me.
Truth comes out faster than lies.
I went with mama, Arthur and Adeline.
Very well.
Salute me.
Salute me.
What game are you playing?
What about you?
You see Arthur and Adeline
behind my back,
and bring the kid into your schemes.
You call worrying and caring
for my son a scheme?
If Arthur chose a life of chaos
with his sister,
he won't drag us into it.
Is that right?
Your foul mouth pushed Adeline out.
Give me a break.
Mouf!
Don't justify leaving a kid outside.
You blamed Adeline's mother
for tormenting her with church.
Who do you blame for Arthur? Me?
You think I enjoy being strict?
I wish my dad
had been there to protect me.
Before you protect them,
make sure you love them.
Bienvenue, bath time.
In my office in 30 minutes.
This way!
A bunch of losers!
Etame, come here. What's going on?
- Who are these guys?
- The suspects we arrested.
- Who authorized this?
- It was Patou.
- Any results?
- Nope.
Now what?
Look into the camera.
Aren't you ashamed?
Manuela, after this,
you have these people to report
for shoplifting at the central market.
They stole three Balenciaga t-shirts
and a pair of Nike shoes.
- You got that down?
- Yes, sir.
You scumbags!
You're a burden to society.
Who are you looking at?
Come closer.
We lost one of our collaborators
but we must stay measured.
We got it wrong from the start.
We arrest people and beat them up!
What if one of them dies in here?
Boss, one thing is for sure...
Speak fast!
We were informed these men
were involved in the murder.
My instinct as an officer
was to arrest them.
Early in the...
Stop at once!
I'm not saying don't to work.
We know about your ambitions!
But stay measured!
If they die in here,
what if they have family somewhere?
If they're guilty, we respond
with the minister on our side!
If they're innocent, we must be careful!
You're big boys.
Show some discernment.
You beat people up,
but if they die,
you'll answer for it!
I need you to understand this!
People are waiting for me.
I'm late because of them.
Leave us a moment.
Patou...
I turn a blind eye
to certain things you do,
because since your divorce,
things haven't been easy.
You're a good officer,
but the way of life you chose,
living between the lines,
It has to stop now.
I'll let it go this time
but don't put me in this position again.
You can take initiatives,
but no more acting alone.
I never want to hear
about a case like this.
That's it.
Right. Salute me.
Such bad news... Now,
it's the house of the village chief!
Do you realize?
The roof of his house collapsed!
If your father were still alive,
this would never have happened.
Never.
He would've taken care of it.
What's wrong with this family?
You must honor your father.
It's your turn
to take on those responsibilities, now.
- You hear me?
- I hear you, mom.
Did I tell you
Adeline came by yesterday?
Did you two talk?
She's always at the stadium.
Day or night,
soccer is all she's interested in.
Remember
when you used to take her there?
Don't hold grudges
like most people in this country.
Before you make any decision,
you should search your heart first.
If I die tomorrow and you're cross,
what's going to happen?
What will you do?
You reached Adeline,
please leave a message.
Hello, Adeline. It's dad.
Please call me back
when you get this message.
That's all.
It's dad.
Right. So, they kill.
They smoke drugs.
For money?
For money.
Is this where they meet?
- This is their spot.
- OK.
This has nothing to do with our case.
Tell him we're wasting time,
the sun is blazing.
We'll come back and take care of it.
Tell him.
Boss. It's too difficult here.
The garage is a mess,
trash everywhere and it smells.
So we can't even preserve
a crime scene?
This case
should already be solved.
That's why Western countries are ahead.
They can prove through evidence
who is guilty or not.
That's evolution!
No wonder
we still use the good old whip.
Bring me that guy!
There was a stall.
A woman. What did she cook?
She made fried beans?
Right here.
She worked at night.
At night, when we sleep.
She left recently, right?
What's that?
She ran away? She ran away.
Because of the gunshots.
Bam! Bam! The violence.
They fired, she ran away. Pow!
She ran away. OK.
Find out more about that woman.
The violence made her leave.
That's great.
Salute me. Don't change a thing.
Good job, my friend.
- Thank you.
- Enjoy your meal.
Excuse me?
Commissioner Billong.
Come have a seat.
I'd like a word.
I'm investigating the murder
of officer Albert Kounde.
You heard about it?
Explain something to me.
How can a local figure like yourself
find herself so far from home?
You didn't report
to investigators, did you?
No.
You were there selling beignets,
you must have seen everything.
Correct?
I know what's going on, madam.
There's a chance you know
who's involved.
Commissioner...
All I want is to make a living
and go home.
So do I.
But we should also
find meaning in our work.
People are happy to buy
your beignets, that's great.
I didn't join the police
to catch small-time pig thieves.
Billong. Are you a Bassa brother?
Yes, from Nyaho.
Narcisse Billong's village?
He was my grandfather.
He was a well-respected chief
in the area.
Brother,
I don't side with the thugs
who killed your colleague.
What would your grandfather think
about all this?
But innocent people fear
those supposed to protect them.
Sister, between you and me,
I wish for no one to be in my position.
The choice between
letting violence persist
and resorting to it
is an inhuman dilemma.
Yet, someone has to do the job.
This is how it is.
Gigi, pass me my phone.
Thank you.
He goes by Blacky.
His accomplices on that night
are called Pepe, Django and Vin Diesel.
OK.
Don't try me!
What's going on?
What are you looking for?
Here's the gun.
- Are you Blacky?
- I'm screwed!
Look over there.
Mouf! Shut up!
- What did I do?
- Calm down!
Upside down!
Leave me!
I'll tell you the truth!
I swear I'll tell you the truth!
I'm sorry!
Get me down, I'll tell the truth!
- We robbed a lot of table shops.
- What table shops?
Houses with a shop out front.
Before we talk about shops or whatever,
tell me who you work with.
Let's be methodical.
I'm listening.
With smokers.
Smokers? What are they called?
I don't know.
- You smoke with people you don't know?
- Yes.
Where do you smoke?
Essos? Pakita?
Yes.
Right. Take him down.
I'm listening.
We got there, I killed the engine...
We entered the villa...
What villa?
The big villa that has AC.
We robbed everybody inside.
- Inside the villa?
- Yes.
Then, a cop showed up
and started shooting at us.
What year?
In 2012!
What story are you making up?
I swear,
he pulled out his gun
and fired at us.
You need to refresh your thoughts.
Drink.
It'll stop the drug.
Put him in a cell
until he gets a clear head.
You need to drink.
We'll pay his friends a visit tomorrow.
Hello?
- Your daughter won't answer me.
- Hello first.
- Hello.
- There.
Do you know what's going on?
It's not my problem, be a father.
Don't give me that,
you think you're a perfect mom?
I never said I was perfect,
but I'm there for her.
Are you now?
So you're aware your daughter
prostitutes herself!
- Zachary, leave me alone.
- I will.
- God have mercy on you.
- On me?
Who said I'm asking for God's mercy?
Have you ever heard me
ask for God's mercy?
I want to go to hell, anyway!
You hear me? To hell!
Satan hasn't seen anything yet!
Anything at all!
Keep praying your God!
Jesus or Allah!
I'm staying here!
I'll die with all the nut jobs!
You hear me?
Police! Hands up!
Empty your pockets!
You idiot!
Don't move.
Stop!
Shit!
What is it?
- He fell!
- What?
He tried to run away and he fell.
He's stoned!
- You've never seen them before?
- No.
They're not in your group?
No.
No Pepe, Django or Vin Diesel?
No one.
Ever smoked with any of these guys?
Never.
So you don't know them?
No.
OK.
We'll take care of you,
but you have to talk.
Who do you work with?
With...
my blood brother.
What brother?
His blood brother.
Like the blood in your veins.
Who's your blood brother?
What's the name of your partner?
My brother...
Django.
Django?
Who else is with you?
Vin Diesel...
And...
Little Blacky.
See? He knows.
Sorry, can I lie down?
Shut up! Speak!
Go easy.
Relax, it's all right.
Turn your head towards me
so we can talk.
Relax.
You're Pepe, aren't you?
Yes.
So, it was you and your team
who killed an officer?
Yes.
There.
Good.
Keep working with us, kid.
- No traffic this time of day?
- The road is clear.
Hear that, Pepe?
You're going to the hospital,
we'll pay for it.
We're on it. You'll get better.
You'll see clearly again.
They'll take care of you.
I'm on it.
You know Pepe, you lied.
I didn't recognize him.
He recognized you just fine.
It was the injuries...
You don't recognize him
because he's hurt?
That's awkward.
If you act like you don't know him,
it means something is wrong.
You're hiding something.
Now that one of your partners
got caught,
it gets a little tricky, doesn't it?
Except he started to talk, he told us.
He says you're involved
in the murder case.
You don't want us to know
this guy is Pepe.
So, you lied.
That's it.
Tomorrow at dawn,
you'll speak.
You'll speak alright.
We'll hang you up,
hands behind your back.
By God...
What do you know about God?
You should've thought about it.
What is it?
Excuse me, boss.
What do you want?
So I work the corner now?
- Don't come here to make a scene.
- Answer me.
- I'm answering.
- Stop spreading lies, let me be!
Keep it down!
Where do you think you are?
I'm done, anyway!
Come here.
- Where's Arthur?
- Don't worry.
I'm not keeping him, he'll be back.
Odette dealt with it.
Think about what I said.
Adeline, careful with that tone.
Be very careful.
- I should be careful?
- Mind those words!
You were named after my mother.
After your great grandmother,
don't forget!
- You and traditions!
- I fought for it!
Traditions, always!
Speak to me like a father!
Be there for your family!
Why do you think Arthur left?
Take your responsibilities, old man!
All you can think about is work!
Let's go.
Want some?
Hello, madam.
I'm here to check in on a patient.
His name is Eugene Babko.
Known as Pepe.
Reason of hospitalization?
Motorcycle accident. Multiple injuries.
When did he get here?
Friday.
He's not here.
How about that...?
He's here.
I'm telling you he's not on my list.
Should I look for him elsewhere?
If you like.
This country...
The people...
Unbelievable.
Excuse me, social services?
Turn left and straight on.
- Right this way.
- OK, thanks.
Unbelievable.
Excuse me, sir.
I'm looking for a patient.
He was on the list,
but it's as if he disappeared.
This is the cardiology unit,
I can't help you.
Ask the other unit, right opposite.
How can a patient disappear?
Who should we ask?
I was at a meeting...
I know. I just want to find my patient.
Go back to your meeting.
He's here.
Unbelievable.
How long has he been here?
Since morning.
Why?
We keep patients in the ER for 24 hours.
After that, they must be hospitalized.
But it costs money...
We already gave the money.
He needs to heal, put him on an IV.
Papa, put him on an IV!
He needs to heal!
Do something, put him on an IV!
This isn't normal.
You have to get better, kid.
You need to heal,
you can't die like this.
You can't die like this.
Pepe can't just die like this.
Daddy?
Boss?
Mamou.
Go to your bedroom,
I'll be with you.
The hospital called.
Pepe is dead.
The money I gave you for his treatment
bought your generator
and your illegal cable TV.
I was planning to...
Planning what?
Someone died,
what was your plan?
- For a generator...
- Sorry, boss.
Keep your head up.
Are you going to cry?
Didn't you shed all your tears
after your son died?
Boss, I'm sorry!
Don't write a report,
I can't lose my job!
Boss!
Listen to me! Listen!
Don't condescend me,
life is hard for everyone.
You think you're perfect?
No!
- Boss, no! Stop that!
- Get off me!
- Stop it!
- Go away!
I'm sorry, boss! I'm sorry!
Beat it!
Stop, boss!
Scram!
- What's going on, here?
- Who are you?
Easy, guys. He's my boss.
Back off!
Back off!
- What kind of cop is that?
- Step back.
You think you're tough?
Because you pump some iron?
No respect for authority!
Are you going to kill me?
Do it!
- Shut up!
- Where do you think you are?
I said back off!
Kill me!
You don't scare me! Shoot!
What is this?
I'm scared of God, not you!
- Step back!
- Mr Big Shot!
I'm not scared of you!
I'm not a torturer.
I'm an African.
I have my own
sense of humanism and fraternity.
There's more than one way to be a man.
One is to take responsibility
for our action.
To look in the mirror
and admit when we choose the wrong path.
I understand
your grief for your friend Pepe.
What matters to me now
is for the truth to come out.
The lies have to stop.
Between you and me.
You're a man, I'm a man.
I don't carry a bush knife.
Look at God.
Look at men.
Look at me.
Now, speak.
I'm the one who caused all this.
Nobody forced me.
The drugs made me take the gun
and shoot.
The drugs...
Nobody forced me to smoke.
You were with your men...
Patou is playing Kounde.
He comes out...
That's how you grabbed him
and dragged him inside.
- Is that right?
- Yes.
You pushed him inside.
Show me how you did it.
OK.
You bring him here...
You search him...
- Your gun?
- You take his gun...
He comes back, you shoot.
One time.
Bam, two times!
You run away.
That's far enough. Come here.
A split second in your life.
Bang, bang, bang.
You don't know who's lying there.
You take off,
you're happy the job is done.
Right?
Good. Here's my hand.
Salute me.
Salute me.
Open the gate for Maxime Bouma!
Come on.
Keep pumping.
Show some muscles, guys.
Wait. Here...
What is it?
Cement.
I'm going to the village with Modeste.
- It'll be a relief for grandma.
- I know.
We're expecting a cabinet reshuffle.
The word is
I'm to be appointed
head of the criminal
investigation department.
You are?
Every single day,
I see kids
fighting, struggling, falling...
Our children have it easy.
So you make it harder for them?
SEX: FEMALE
What's up, guys?
You're here.
Little Tintin!
How was it?
- How was the game?
- Good.
Your favorite part?
- When you stopped the ball.
- Yeah!
What about you?
- That great save you did.
- Yeah!
- Will you do the same?
- Yes.
- A great save!
- You're jealous!
- I saw a few mistakes.
- They happen!
The ball hit the post.
Get home safe.
- I'll call you.
- OK.
Bye!
- Do better next time!
- Yeah, I'll work on it.
Daddy?
We can get some ice cream now.
To my grandparents, my father,
my mother and my brothers & sisters

Close the door. Sit down.
My grandfather hid in the bush
during the war,
so this country could be independent,
so you and I could go about freely.
Now, you guys hide and sneak back
in the middle of the night.
Where from? I don't care.
It's just that...
Don't.
Son, these are dangerous times.
You must be prepared.
I was your age when I buried my father
and my little brother.
Death,
it doesn't impress me.
It's like I'm immune to it.
If I have to die today or tomorrow,
I won't be scared.
But I won't be here forever.
If I die, you'll be the ones in charge.
Do you hear me?
You know the singer Marvin Gaye?
Yes.
Do you know how he died?
No.
His father killed him.
UNTAMABLE
Based on the documentary
"A CRIME IN ABIDJAN"
You have my money!
Pass me the mush.
There goes our tax money.
Did you hear?
Emergency call to all operating units.
Stay alert.
We received an anonymous phone call
informing us of the murder
of officer Albert Kounde.
He was shot by bandits
carrying handguns.
Turn him over.
OK.
This is where the bullet came out.
He was shot from the front,
at close range.
The bullet was the same caliber
as his service pistol.
Apparently,
that's what he was shot with.
He couldn't survive
a wound near the heart.
He didn't stand a chance.
Really...
What's that?
Nothing.
Really?
That's the problem,
I don't feel it anymore.
It' seems normal.
You ran out of tears.
In our line of work,
our pains can be
our greatest strength.
Boss,
thank you for what you did
while I was mourning.
I was very touched.
We're all fathers.
The day I'm the one lying
on one of those tables,
I hope you'll shed a tear
for your boss.
What are you talking about?
You're still young.
Death asks people their age?
No, boss.
We still have work to do.
- What's the bush knife for?
- For security.
Security?
Two bush knives?
Two guards
are in charge of security.
- Were they used to commit the crime?
- Not at all.
- You had them before?
- Yes.
- Over there?
- There.
You showed up at 8pm,
what happened?
- I was told...
- By who?
My wife.
She said someone got shot.
I went out to take a look
and I found him
leaning against the car.
Where was the head?
- It was...
- Show us the position.
Don't sit in the blood,
move aside.
We must preserve the scene.
He was leaning like this.
- His head?
- It looked left.
The head was looking left.
His nose and mouth were bleeding.
My neighbor and I
took him to the hospital.
- Was he still breathing?
- No.
His wife was in a car out front.
All we said to her
was to go get some rest.
This was caused by the impact.
- The internal bleeding...
- Right.
His head being on the side,
the blood ran all the way down.
- Here.
- Exactly, all the way here...
It was...
All eyes are set on Cameroon.
Our international champion,
Francis Ngannou
is getting ready for a fight
already deemed legendary.
- You OK, Lambert?
- Yes, boss.
No doubt there will be blood
and there will be beer!
No clothes on?
I didn't have school.
So you just got up? It's past 1pm.
You didn't even shower.
I did last night...
Go get dressed!
Go to school with bad breath!
Every week, we get a call
because you're late.
We don't pay for you to sleep in!
I need to go to the pharmacy,
but traffic is awful
at the Jean Moulin junction,
so I can't be bothered.
Odette?
Where's my Marvin Gaye CD?
I left it by the HiFi
and it disappeared.
What would the kids do with it?
Nobody listens to CDs anymore
except you.
Daddy?
Can we get ice cream later?
We'll see. Focus on your lessons first.
We're off.
- OK.
- Good.
Is that a promise?
Yes. We'll see.
Don't worry about it.
Arthur, come on.
Ngannou is done.
You find that funny?
We're the Continent,
Ngannou is a national treasure
but we have to admit
Ngannou is washed.
Even I could beat Ngannou, now!
Did you take time to eat
with your chattering?
It's the Ngannou fight
that keeps us talking!
- What's your prediction?
- Leave me alone.
Thank God!
This guy earns millions
to punch people.
We work our asses off
to save lives!
Spare me!
Do you know the cost of a birthday cake
at the French bakery?
It's crazy!
You're asking for it!
- What do you mean?
- Are you rich like Kim Kardashian?
Why would you go
to that kind of shop?
I was doing it for my daughter!
A mama in my neighborhood
makes cheaper cakes anyway.
- It means more than Ngannou!
- The problem is you're jealous.
What would I be jealous about?
What channel is the fight on?
Now, you're interested!
I'm not interested!
I'm only asking!
Get yourself an IPTV,
like everybody else.
With all the illegal channels?
How much?
- See? You're interested.
- I just want to know!
Guys, Mrs Kounde has just arrived.
That woman is a real lady!
If I died, my ex would be drinking beer
all over town
to celebrate my death!
- Patou, you're staying.
- What?
I'm telling you to stay here.
You know why we asked you to come here.
You were the only person at the scene.
Given the emotional impact,
try to collect yourself
and tell us exactly what happened.
Forgive me.
CLEMENCE:
You kicked Adeline out?!
Is taking care of your daughter
too much for you?
You're useless!
Sorry. I'm listening.
We parked by the gate of the garage...
Albert got out...
A few moments later,
a Toyota showed up
and parked right in front of us.
So, there were four men
in that car in front of you?
Yes.
Could you identify them?
No.
I couldn't see anything in the dark.
Nothing.
In the dark?
OK. Go on.
They got out of their car...
They were smoking a cigarette...
Do you mind speaking louder?
It's a delicate situation for me too.
Let's all make an effort
to be more intelligible.
They entered the courtyard.
They didn't come near you?
No.
I remained seated in the car.
Right.
You never got out?
- No.
- OK.
When Albert put his hand
on the car door,
they surrounded him...
The man standing behind him
started pointing a gun at his back.
That's when I said,
"Albert!
Be careful!"
A few moments later,
I heard the gunshot.
After that, they left...
Thank you.
Yes.
- You'll be all right.
- Yes.
Today, our minister of justice
and state representatives
attended the transfer of the body
of a police officer
who was murdered by bandits.
The Presidency is close to its people,
and has always shared
its joys and sorrows.
It expressed its support
to the family of Albert Kounde.
State officials and myself
wish to express
our condolences to the family
of the deceased,
an outstanding officer,
a devoted servant of Cameroon.
I also wish to inform you
that our brave elements
have already taken on this case.
These vicious murderers
will soon be found
and severely punished.
I will see to it myself.
Sorry, boss.
Modeste is at the front door.
- Who invited him?
- He's your cousin, isn't he?
Zachary, come on.
What?
I didn't invite him.
I don't like him,
he always comes while we eat.
He puts me off.
What does he want?
He says he can't get a hold of the boss.
See?
What for?
I told Modeste to go back
to the village and fix the house.
But all he does
is come to town for beer!
He can't sacrifice his life
for this house.
There's no work at the village.
- He has opportunities here.
- He's useless. Period.
Pass me the bobolo.
Sorry, I'm coming.
Eat.
You know an officer was killed nearby?
I know.
But now, I walk the straight and narrow.
I run my pharmacy.
Selling deadly degraded drugs
is the straight and narrow?
Be careful, kid.
This is serious,
it may have consequences.
How do I know you're not involved?
I understand but...
If you understand, get talking.
You often get involved
in shady business,
so speak up.
Well...
My hairdresser, Emile...
Emile?
He's the kid who cuts my hair.
He also does the robbers' hair.
- That night, he cut Putin's hair.
- Who?
Putin...
Like the president of Russia.
Putin slept out
on the night of the crime.
Is this some kind of joke?
That whole Putin story,
I believe it 50/50.
Give me something.
Papa...
The night of the crime,
Putin had a haircut from Emile.
When he reached for his bag to pay,
Emile saw the gun.
Emile is my boy, he wouldn't lie to me.
On your feet!
Get up! Up!
Hands on your head!
Over there!
What's your name? Your name!
Celestin Pagal.
Don't play stupid, your gang name?
- I swear, Celestin Pagal.
- Are you Putin?
We know you, don't mess with us!
Got it? Don't mess with us!
Don't play stupid.
We didn't just get here, we know you.
Your name?
What's your name?
Take a look behind the gas cylinder.
Nothing.
Putin?
Where's that money from?
I keep it for my mother.
Who gave it to you?
It's money from work.
Where do you work?
I do odd jobs like street sweeping
or collecting trash.
How much is there?
- 38,000 francs.
- 38,000?
Correct.
Keep this.
Boss?
You rob graves?
Where are the guns?
Speak!
You don't want to talk?
- The guns?
- I don't have any!
- Mr Pagal!
- You have the guns!
Where are the guns?
I need a branch!
From that plum tree!
You've been robbing tombs?
Oh God, I don't deserve to die!
Bring him to me!
Move your leg!
- Does it get into your head?
- I don't steal!
I don't steal!
Why are you so stupid?
Aren't you Cameroonian?
- I am.
- There...
So, you're smart.
Only Nigerians get whooped
like that, right?
Right.
If you're involved in something bad,
say you didn't do it alone.
Now, your friends left,
and you're paying the price.
You're paying for everyone
and that's stupid.
You have to tell me what happened.
We know everything,
so don't be stubborn.
Hey...?
What's wrong with this country?
How can we work in those conditions?
We're wasting time
with a small-time robber.
Get to work. What are you doing?
Take his place.
You, come here.
What's up, guys?
Hey, big guy!
Yo bro, what's up?
- The power's out?
- It's been out since noon.
Sup, bro?
Stop pretending, come here.
In memory of our beloved son,
Herve Sylvestre Etame,
missed yet never forsaken.
Look what the power outage did...
Happy birthday, princess!
Mel Gibson is a great actor.
The Americans have the best ideas.
Where have you been at this hour?
At Colin's place.
Colin?
Did you eat there?
We did our homework and...
Answer my question.
Right.
How many times must I tell you
not to eat out?
Do you even understand me when I speak?
You think I enjoy having
my lunch break at home?
This country is dangerous.
You took your little brother
for a walk at night
when there's school tomorrow.
Arthur, don't start me up.
We don't need any of this.
Your mother is pregnant,
so be considerate.
Mommy, is it true?
You're expecting a baby?
Do you use your brain?
Life is dangerous.
Don't just stand there in silence.
You had a gun, didn't you?
I saw him jump through the window.
I screamed, "Thief!"
and he pointed a gun at me.
He broke in through the window,
and took
some of my daughter's clothes.
The shoes you're wearing
were for my son!
You stole them by the entrance,
right?
I confirm,
he's a bandit!
He stole our cattle!
You didn't tell us about that.
You're a thief!
Was it three pigs that you stole?
You were wearing
that same Rihanna t-shirt!
You brutalized me!
You even scare the kids away!
Let's go the other way,
they're everywhere.
We can't go this way.
Beat it!
Thief! Thief!
I'm going to kill someone!
Go away!
Thief!
Thief!
Beat it!
Hello?
Excuse me?
Hello, commissioner.
Headmaster.
Have a seat.
Thank you for coming.
I know you're very busy.
It's fine, I wasn't far.
Like I said...
Young Arthur is causing us trouble.
He had a fight with a schoolmate.
After the fight,
regrettable words were used
against the teacher who broke it up.
What words?
What words?
I had to interrupt a day at work,
so I won't have any of that silence.
Speak the words.
"Motherfucker."
"Son of a bitch."
Where did you learn
that kind of language?
- Get up!
- Easy.
Look at your father!
You think you're tough?
Sit!
- Calm down.
- I'm calm!
I know what I'm doing!
We live under the same roof.
Here or at home, this ends today!
You have my word! Imbecile!
Commissioner.
Arthur has expressed sincere regrets.
I'm sure things will be fine.
Let me say this,
you and I are respectable men.
Indeed.
We must honor our responsibilities.
When I say that my son
is a part of your institution,
I consider him to be your child.
So, if words won't do,
punish him.
I'm telling you! Punish him!
- Commissioner...
- It's not a problem for me.
You have my blessing!
We have methods of our own.
Sure, you have your methods
and I have mine.
But mine work.
I'm on the street every day
and I hear that kind of street talk!
No "motherfucker" or "son of a bitch"
with me!
I drove 30 minutes
for some misbehaving ignorant!
And I had to justify myself!
I'm not just anyone!
If you want to act like a thug,
I'll show you!
Just wait and see!
Look at me. Who told you about this?
Look at me... Look at me!
Who told you?
Who told you?
Put your hands down!
Why are you crying?
Why?
Keep your head down!
Who told you?
Don't try to woo us!
Grab him!
Have mercy...
Shut up!
Mercy for who?
Look at him.
Let me tell you something, my friend.
We're all black.
We have the same skin, you and I.
But if I decide to kill you,
as a policeman,
I don't risk anything.
I have a free pass!
What is it?
Sorry, boss.
Your son forgot this.
Forgot? How?
He left.
Good evening, boss.
Shame may mean nothing to you,
but don't make me look bad at work!
Understand? Don't make me look bad!
You imbecile!
Don't pretend to study,
you won't fool me!
See this phone?
There! There!
I'm the dumb one?
Are you insulting me?
Cut it off!
Leave him! Stop that!
- In my own house?
- Stop!
- Calm down!
- Leave me!
Don't overreact and traumatize the kids!
You're protecting a disgraceful thug!
- He's my son!
- Don't point!
- What are you going to do?
- Odette!
Don't yell at me!
- Lower your hand!
- No!
- Mouf!
- Mouf yourself!
Go away!
You're a dog who can't protect his kids!
Psycho!
Zachary!
Is he gone?
I'm talking to you.
Zachary?
This isn't a game!
That kid...
Great!
Stay outside, like your sister!
You don't know how lucky you are.
I eat the dirt!
Stay out of this house!
If you kill my son,
you'll have to kill me first.
- Leave me alone.
- No.
Leave it!
No way!
- Don't scream.
- I'll scream if I want!
- Close the door.
- Leave him!
Beat it!
Who put you in charge here?
- Your madness has to stop.
- OK.
Make it fast!
Bring me my son back!
Go find him on the street!
- What?
- He's the one who left!
Go look for him!
Bring me my son back!
- Psycho!
- Sure, I'm a psycho.
A house of scandal, what a disgrace!
Bring me my son back!
- How are you?
- Good.
Hello, commissioner.
Move!
Like I said,
we were told about a suspect,
so we quickly carried out an operation
to arrest him.
We roughed him up a little,
he wasn't making much sense,
but we don't think he did it.
Yet, he admitted
committing three hold-ups.
So...
We look for someone and find another...
He's a still a bandit
who must be taken into custody.
OK.
We're going to need results very soon.
You reached Adeline,
please leave a message.
Get off my back!
I'm working. Thank you!
Unbelievable.
Dany, come here.
Did you write this?
Yes.
"Baby,
"It's just you and me,
"I'm 'onna play it dirty,
"The way you like it,
"The way you want it,
Dougie style...
"I'm taking you to heaven."
So that's what you're into?
Salute me.
Salute me.
I'm telling you,
lay off your iPhone...
Every day, wham, bam, boom!
How is it even useful?
Go help your mother.
SISTER
Juju, what's up?
So, if it's your brother calling,
you answer.
Jesus...
- Listen.
- Leave us alone.
- 100 francs a bottle.
- We're good.
- 100 francs a bottle.
- No thanks.
We could die
in this country's traffic jams.
Unpaved roads
cause all the traffic.
What can we do?
It's the van over there.
What's going on?
- Get out.
- You're intimidating me in my country?
Get out!
Commissioner Billong.
What's going on?
- Thank God you're here!
- Keep calm!
It's him!
My van hit a pothole.
He helped pull it out,
now he's asking for money!
Did I?
Did I ask for money?
You asked for "something",
we all know what that means.
You're blocking the whole city.
Stay with the lady.
Follow me.
People like him
hold the country back.
- Easy.
- I swear!
We'll handle the situation.
Do you know who I am?
Who my husband is?
- My friend, empty your pockets.
- What?
Empty them.
Quickly.
- That's it?
- Yes.
Don't make me
humiliate you in public.
It's the pay I have left
to feed the kids.
Many of us have kids.
You have a salary.
And yet, you make her pay for your help?
What mindset is that?
You make us look bad!
You tarnish
the police's reputation.
Daddy?
Can you sign my homework?
Let me see.
That's good, carry on like this.
- You hear me?
- Yes.
Give me the pen.
You deserve a treat.
Let's have ice cream later.
Yes.
Smile, you're the one
who asked for ice cream.
I had some for snack.
You didn't wait for me?
It was our time together.
Yes.
Who did you have it with?
Answer me.
Truth comes out faster than lies.
I went with mama, Arthur and Adeline.
Very well.
Salute me.
Salute me.
What game are you playing?
What about you?
You see Arthur and Adeline
behind my back,
and bring the kid into your schemes.
You call worrying and caring
for my son a scheme?
If Arthur chose a life of chaos
with his sister,
he won't drag us into it.
Is that right?
Your foul mouth pushed Adeline out.
Give me a break.
Mouf!
Don't justify leaving a kid outside.
You blamed Adeline's mother
for tormenting her with church.
Who do you blame for Arthur? Me?
You think I enjoy being strict?
I wish my dad
had been there to protect me.
Before you protect them,
make sure you love them.
Bienvenue, bath time.
In my office in 30 minutes.
This way!
A bunch of losers!
Etame, come here. What's going on?
- Who are these guys?
- The suspects we arrested.
- Who authorized this?
- It was Patou.
- Any results?
- Nope.
Now what?
Look into the camera.
Aren't you ashamed?
Manuela, after this,
you have these people to report
for shoplifting at the central market.
They stole three Balenciaga t-shirts
and a pair of Nike shoes.
- You got that down?
- Yes, sir.
You scumbags!
You're a burden to society.
Who are you looking at?
Come closer.
We lost one of our collaborators
but we must stay measured.
We got it wrong from the start.
We arrest people and beat them up!
What if one of them dies in here?
Boss, one thing is for sure...
Speak fast!
We were informed these men
were involved in the murder.
My instinct as an officer
was to arrest them.
Early in the...
Stop at once!
I'm not saying don't to work.
We know about your ambitions!
But stay measured!
If they die in here,
what if they have family somewhere?
If they're guilty, we respond
with the minister on our side!
If they're innocent, we must be careful!
You're big boys.
Show some discernment.
You beat people up,
but if they die,
you'll answer for it!
I need you to understand this!
People are waiting for me.
I'm late because of them.
Leave us a moment.
Patou...
I turn a blind eye
to certain things you do,
because since your divorce,
things haven't been easy.
You're a good officer,
but the way of life you chose,
living between the lines,
It has to stop now.
I'll let it go this time
but don't put me in this position again.
You can take initiatives,
but no more acting alone.
I never want to hear
about a case like this.
That's it.
Right. Salute me.
Such bad news... Now,
it's the house of the village chief!
Do you realize?
The roof of his house collapsed!
If your father were still alive,
this would never have happened.
Never.
He would've taken care of it.
What's wrong with this family?
You must honor your father.
It's your turn
to take on those responsibilities, now.
- You hear me?
- I hear you, mom.
Did I tell you
Adeline came by yesterday?
Did you two talk?
She's always at the stadium.
Day or night,
soccer is all she's interested in.
Remember
when you used to take her there?
Don't hold grudges
like most people in this country.
Before you make any decision,
you should search your heart first.
If I die tomorrow and you're cross,
what's going to happen?
What will you do?
You reached Adeline,
please leave a message.
Hello, Adeline. It's dad.
Please call me back
when you get this message.
That's all.
It's dad.
Right. So, they kill.
They smoke drugs.
For money?
For money.
Is this where they meet?
- This is their spot.
- OK.
This has nothing to do with our case.
Tell him we're wasting time,
the sun is blazing.
We'll come back and take care of it.
Tell him.
Boss. It's too difficult here.
The garage is a mess,
trash everywhere and it smells.
So we can't even preserve
a crime scene?
This case
should already be solved.
That's why Western countries are ahead.
They can prove through evidence
who is guilty or not.
That's evolution!
No wonder
we still use the good old whip.
Bring me that guy!
There was a stall.
A woman. What did she cook?
She made fried beans?
Right here.
She worked at night.
At night, when we sleep.
She left recently, right?
What's that?
She ran away? She ran away.
Because of the gunshots.
Bam! Bam! The violence.
They fired, she ran away. Pow!
She ran away. OK.
Find out more about that woman.
The violence made her leave.
That's great.
Salute me. Don't change a thing.
Good job, my friend.
- Thank you.
- Enjoy your meal.
Excuse me?
Commissioner Billong.
Come have a seat.
I'd like a word.
I'm investigating the murder
of officer Albert Kounde.
You heard about it?
Explain something to me.
How can a local figure like yourself
find herself so far from home?
You didn't report
to investigators, did you?
No.
You were there selling beignets,
you must have seen everything.
Correct?
I know what's going on, madam.
There's a chance you know
who's involved.
Commissioner...
All I want is to make a living
and go home.
So do I.
But we should also
find meaning in our work.
People are happy to buy
your beignets, that's great.
I didn't join the police
to catch small-time pig thieves.
Billong. Are you a Bassa brother?
Yes, from Nyaho.
Narcisse Billong's village?
He was my grandfather.
He was a well-respected chief
in the area.
Brother,
I don't side with the thugs
who killed your colleague.
What would your grandfather think
about all this?
But innocent people fear
those supposed to protect them.
Sister, between you and me,
I wish for no one to be in my position.
The choice between
letting violence persist
and resorting to it
is an inhuman dilemma.
Yet, someone has to do the job.
This is how it is.
Gigi, pass me my phone.
Thank you.
He goes by Blacky.
His accomplices on that night
are called Pepe, Django and Vin Diesel.
OK.
Don't try me!
What's going on?
What are you looking for?
Here's the gun.
- Are you Blacky?
- I'm screwed!
Look over there.
Mouf! Shut up!
- What did I do?
- Calm down!
Upside down!
Leave me!
I'll tell you the truth!
I swear I'll tell you the truth!
I'm sorry!
Get me down, I'll tell the truth!
- We robbed a lot of table shops.
- What table shops?
Houses with a shop out front.
Before we talk about shops or whatever,
tell me who you work with.
Let's be methodical.
I'm listening.
With smokers.
Smokers? What are they called?
I don't know.
- You smoke with people you don't know?
- Yes.
Where do you smoke?
Essos? Pakita?
Yes.
Right. Take him down.
I'm listening.
We got there, I killed the engine...
We entered the villa...
What villa?
The big villa that has AC.
We robbed everybody inside.
- Inside the villa?
- Yes.
Then, a cop showed up
and started shooting at us.
What year?
In 2012!
What story are you making up?
I swear,
he pulled out his gun
and fired at us.
You need to refresh your thoughts.
Drink.
It'll stop the drug.
Put him in a cell
until he gets a clear head.
You need to drink.
We'll pay his friends a visit tomorrow.
Hello?
- Your daughter won't answer me.
- Hello first.
- Hello.
- There.
Do you know what's going on?
It's not my problem, be a father.
Don't give me that,
you think you're a perfect mom?
I never said I was perfect,
but I'm there for her.
Are you now?
So you're aware your daughter
prostitutes herself!
- Zachary, leave me alone.
- I will.
- God have mercy on you.
- On me?
Who said I'm asking for God's mercy?
Have you ever heard me
ask for God's mercy?
I want to go to hell, anyway!
You hear me? To hell!
Satan hasn't seen anything yet!
Anything at all!
Keep praying your God!
Jesus or Allah!
I'm staying here!
I'll die with all the nut jobs!
You hear me?
Police! Hands up!
Empty your pockets!
You idiot!
Don't move.
Stop!
Shit!
What is it?
- He fell!
- What?
He tried to run away and he fell.
He's stoned!
- You've never seen them before?
- No.
They're not in your group?
No.
No Pepe, Django or Vin Diesel?
No one.
Ever smoked with any of these guys?
Never.
So you don't know them?
No.
OK.
We'll take care of you,
but you have to talk.
Who do you work with?
With...
my blood brother.
What brother?
His blood brother.
Like the blood in your veins.
Who's your blood brother?
What's the name of your partner?
My brother...
Django.
Django?
Who else is with you?
Vin Diesel...
And...
Little Blacky.
See? He knows.
Sorry, can I lie down?
Shut up! Speak!
Go easy.
Relax, it's all right.
Turn your head towards me
so we can talk.
Relax.
You're Pepe, aren't you?
Yes.
So, it was you and your team
who killed an officer?
Yes.
There.
Good.
Keep working with us, kid.
- No traffic this time of day?
- The road is clear.
Hear that, Pepe?
You're going to the hospital,
we'll pay for it.
We're on it. You'll get better.
You'll see clearly again.
They'll take care of you.
I'm on it.
You know Pepe, you lied.
I didn't recognize him.
He recognized you just fine.
It was the injuries...
You don't recognize him
because he's hurt?
That's awkward.
If you act like you don't know him,
it means something is wrong.
You're hiding something.
Now that one of your partners
got caught,
it gets a little tricky, doesn't it?
Except he started to talk, he told us.
He says you're involved
in the murder case.
You don't want us to know
this guy is Pepe.
So, you lied.
That's it.
Tomorrow at dawn,
you'll speak.
You'll speak alright.
We'll hang you up,
hands behind your back.
By God...
What do you know about God?
You should've thought about it.
What is it?
Excuse me, boss.
What do you want?
So I work the corner now?
- Don't come here to make a scene.
- Answer me.
- I'm answering.
- Stop spreading lies, let me be!
Keep it down!
Where do you think you are?
I'm done, anyway!
Come here.
- Where's Arthur?
- Don't worry.
I'm not keeping him, he'll be back.
Odette dealt with it.
Think about what I said.
Adeline, careful with that tone.
Be very careful.
- I should be careful?
- Mind those words!
You were named after my mother.
After your great grandmother,
don't forget!
- You and traditions!
- I fought for it!
Traditions, always!
Speak to me like a father!
Be there for your family!
Why do you think Arthur left?
Take your responsibilities, old man!
All you can think about is work!
Let's go.
Want some?
Hello, madam.
I'm here to check in on a patient.
His name is Eugene Babko.
Known as Pepe.
Reason of hospitalization?
Motorcycle accident. Multiple injuries.
When did he get here?
Friday.
He's not here.
How about that...?
He's here.
I'm telling you he's not on my list.
Should I look for him elsewhere?
If you like.
This country...
The people...
Unbelievable.
Excuse me, social services?
Turn left and straight on.
- Right this way.
- OK, thanks.
Unbelievable.
Excuse me, sir.
I'm looking for a patient.
He was on the list,
but it's as if he disappeared.
This is the cardiology unit,
I can't help you.
Ask the other unit, right opposite.
How can a patient disappear?
Who should we ask?
I was at a meeting...
I know. I just want to find my patient.
Go back to your meeting.
He's here.
Unbelievable.
How long has he been here?
Since morning.
Why?
We keep patients in the ER for 24 hours.
After that, they must be hospitalized.
But it costs money...
We already gave the money.
He needs to heal, put him on an IV.
Papa, put him on an IV!
He needs to heal!
Do something, put him on an IV!
This isn't normal.
You have to get better, kid.
You need to heal,
you can't die like this.
You can't die like this.
Pepe can't just die like this.
Daddy?
Boss?
Mamou.
Go to your bedroom,
I'll be with you.
The hospital called.
Pepe is dead.
The money I gave you for his treatment
bought your generator
and your illegal cable TV.
I was planning to...
Planning what?
Someone died,
what was your plan?
- For a generator...
- Sorry, boss.
Keep your head up.
Are you going to cry?
Didn't you shed all your tears
after your son died?
Boss, I'm sorry!
Don't write a report,
I can't lose my job!
Boss!
Listen to me! Listen!
Don't condescend me,
life is hard for everyone.
You think you're perfect?
No!
- Boss, no! Stop that!
- Get off me!
- Stop it!
- Go away!
I'm sorry, boss! I'm sorry!
Beat it!
Stop, boss!
Scram!
- What's going on, here?
- Who are you?
Easy, guys. He's my boss.
Back off!
Back off!
- What kind of cop is that?
- Step back.
You think you're tough?
Because you pump some iron?
No respect for authority!
Are you going to kill me?
Do it!
- Shut up!
- Where do you think you are?
I said back off!
Kill me!
You don't scare me! Shoot!
What is this?
I'm scared of God, not you!
- Step back!
- Mr Big Shot!
I'm not scared of you!
I'm not a torturer.
I'm an African.
I have my own
sense of humanism and fraternity.
There's more than one way to be a man.
One is to take responsibility
for our action.
To look in the mirror
and admit when we choose the wrong path.
I understand
your grief for your friend Pepe.
What matters to me now
is for the truth to come out.
The lies have to stop.
Between you and me.
You're a man, I'm a man.
I don't carry a bush knife.
Look at God.
Look at men.
Look at me.
Now, speak.
I'm the one who caused all this.
Nobody forced me.
The drugs made me take the gun
and shoot.
The drugs...
Nobody forced me to smoke.
You were with your men...
Patou is playing Kounde.
He comes out...
That's how you grabbed him
and dragged him inside.
- Is that right?
- Yes.
You pushed him inside.
Show me how you did it.
OK.
You bring him here...
You search him...
- Your gun?
- You take his gun...
He comes back, you shoot.
One time.
Bam, two times!
You run away.
That's far enough. Come here.
A split second in your life.
Bang, bang, bang.
You don't know who's lying there.
You take off,
you're happy the job is done.
Right?
Good. Here's my hand.
Salute me.
Salute me.
Open the gate for Maxime Bouma!
Come on.
Keep pumping.
Show some muscles, guys.
Wait. Here...
What is it?
Cement.
I'm going to the village with Modeste.
- It'll be a relief for grandma.
- I know.
We're expecting a cabinet reshuffle.
The word is
I'm to be appointed
head of the criminal
investigation department.
You are?
Every single day,
I see kids
fighting, struggling, falling...
Our children have it easy.
So you make it harder for them?
SEX: FEMALE
What's up, guys?
You're here.
Little Tintin!
How was it?
- How was the game?
- Good.
Your favorite part?
- When you stopped the ball.
- Yeah!
What about you?
- That great save you did.
- Yeah!
- Will you do the same?
- Yes.
- A great save!
- You're jealous!
- I saw a few mistakes.
- They happen!
The ball hit the post.
Get home safe.
- I'll call you.
- OK.
Bye!
- Do better next time!
- Yeah, I'll work on it.
Daddy?
We can get some ice cream now.
To my grandparents, my father,
my mother and my brothers & sisters
UNTAMABLE
