Nine Meals from Chaos (2018) Movie Script
Stop!
What's your name?
Tisha.
He fell in one of those traps.
We only light fires at night.
Otherwise they'll see the smoke.
Look guys!
I want! I want!
They are rats.
Parasites.
Where did mum go again?
I don't know.
Lolo...
Lolo.
Where did you find the carrots?
No.
Where did you find the carrots?!
No.
Where?!
She we go now?
Let's wait.
Go get the body.
Where?
Go and get it!
Go play somewhere else, go.
And your friends?
They left.
Where?
I don't want to continue.
I want to stay here, with you lot.
Why?
He was my brother.
It's either you or we that die.
Us then.
Do what you want.
Lolo!
Lalu!
Lolo!
Grab it!
Help me!
Parasites!
Help!
Lolo!
Take it again!
What are you doing?!
Lolo.
We shouldn't have gone.
I didn't want to.
But we had to save Lolo.
Save him?
You let the rope go, coward!
Me a coward?
Guys, its stupid fighting.
Everything will be fine once we reach Epecu.
And how do you know that?
I came from there.
We only need to follow the train tracks.
Yeah, whatever you say.
They don't even know what it is.
They wouldn't even care anyhow.
Guys!
Hello.
What's wrong with him?
He doesn't speak.
But he bit me.
Guys, he's following us.
What's your name?
He bit me.
And now he's crying.
It's because he can't speak.
And he has no parents.
Come.
He can't say anything.
Chacha, ...your face!
And you?
Look!
Look, look!
I need water.
I'm going to die.
Lolo, he once saw a bird.
And he really liked it.
Guys, we can't always stop.
We need to get to Epecu.
How far is it from here?
I don't know.
I took some days to come here.
There is no Epecu.
Tata, what are you doing on my head?
I think it's a rat.
He bit me.
I don't like it when animals die.
Because they did nothing wrong.
Many animals died then.
More than twenty-five.
Even more maybe.
Look at the colours.
Look.
For sure, they talk of Epecu.
Where?
That's about Epecu.
No.
Why were you under the train tracks?
You had a dad?
And a mum?
What happened to her?
Men.
What happened?
First there was one,
then others came.
And mummy was screaming harder every time.
And?
Where is she now?
One of them opened her here.
Ah. She died.
I will cut them.
What?
Here.
Who?
All men.
We go?
There are people there for sure.
I can't keep it up.
'National Ministry of Education'
Wait here, I'll go.
Come, there's no one!
Where would the owners be?
Dead, for sure.
Guys, there's nothing here.
Nothing!
Guys! Look what I found!
What?
- And this?
- It's for drinking.
- 'Cobos'.
- How do you know that?
Don't know. I guessed.
With a stick.
With anything. Look.
- Come on, open it.
- Can't. It's shut tight.
What if we hit it with a stone.
Got an idea.
Mummy.
Easy. I won't harm you.
I'm a mother.
Look, these are my children.
We went looking for food
and my youngest one died.
We buried him.
Stay please.
I was a teacher in this school.
They all died.
But I stayed here.
Now, there's no one left but...
we could start a new school.
How lovely that would be.
Would you like that?
Those coloured sticks that light up
I kept them.
For when my students came back.
They're lovely, aren't they?
You like them?
Now I have none left.
My children are also unwell.
But this boy is sick as well.
What happened to him?
I can help you.
I can cure you.
Come with me.
I'll put some cream on this.
And tomorrow you'll be better.
Leave him, I'll take care of him.
Come.
Now you can sleep easy.
I'll take care of him.
Sleep now.
You feel pain?
I know it hurts you.
I feel your suffering.
I will help you.
And you will help my children.
Easy now
Sleep.
You'll feel better after.
'Sleepy byes, sleepy byes
'Sleepy byes my little child'
- 'Sleepy byes my little boy'
- 'Sleepy byes, with God...'
'He will take you in his arms'...
'Sleepy byes'...
'Sleepy byes, sleepy'...
'Sleepy, sleep my...'
He died.
Children.
Children.
Wake up.
Come on Children.
I have very bad news.
Your little friend
died.
He's with the angels now.
I did all I could.
But he passed away.
I'm so sorry.
Children?
Children, children, don't go!
Children! Children!
Don't leave.
At least stay for dinner.
Children!
And the new school?
I'm a good mother.
I did it for him.
And or my children.
He's better now.
He's with...
He's with...
with Jesus.
With Mary.
Who was also a mother.
And... he must be with...
Mateo.
Who couldn't write well.
I helped him a lot.
How I loved my students.
Anyone would have done the same.
I did a kind action.
I'm a good mother.
We were there.
But now he's dead,
and no one thinks of him.
How was it in Epecu when you were there?
I had my parents there.
It's very nice there.
There are swimming pools with games.
And people don't hit or kill children.
Me, when I get there,
I will cry.
Because I'll have a family.
It's only two or three days before we get there.
And where do we get food from?
We can't manage three more days.
There isn't even any water around here.
I'm so hungry.
Guys, Tati has gone.
- What do you mean she's gone?
- I don't know, she left with the baby.
The father needs to go get her.
We can't just leave her.
How will she live?
If she wanted to go...
Will you also leave, like Tati and he baby?
No. I'm staying.
You promise?
And now?
Where do we go?
We go straight.
But there are no more tracks.
Only mountains ahead.
We cross them.
It's salty.
I can't go on.
I need water.
Is there much left?
We can't go on.
You're taking us nowhere.
Guys, I think there's a bee hive there.
We need to go on.
What's happening?
What happened?
- A snake.
- There?
No big deal, it was only a small one.
Tata!
Tata!
What are you doing?!
Let it go!
Let it go!
But you're hurting it!
I'm leaving!
Guys, look.
They are probably going to Epecu.
They are going to Epecu?
Yes.
Well, we'll follow them.
But only at night.
Have you seen Juan?
Who?
Juan.
I'm looking for Juan.
Did pass by here?
What are you talking about?!
He's my brother.
Everyone knows him.
Should we kill him?
We kill him?
How do we cook it?
Just like he is.
It's because he's hungry.
Juan.
Do we cut him or not?
It stinks.
I have a carrot.
It was for Tata.
Guys. He died.
We cut him?
- That's not done.
- They do it to us!
I'm really hungry.
I'm cutting him.
He stinks of shit!
Better every time.
- I'm sick of this!
- It's true. How much longer of this stupid walk?!
How much longer of this?!
How much left?!
I can't go on anymore.
I dying of hunger and thirst!
This is a waste of time!
We need to go on.
I can't keep it up, how much longer?
I can't go on!
I can't go on, who's coming with me?
If you want to break up ok,
but I know where I'm going.
Look guys, footprints!
The train tracks, there, below!
They're going to Epecu.
You see, I was right!
Are you ok?
Yeah.
Don't worry.
What does it say there?
We're here, let's go!
This is Epecu?
We walked so much for this?
It's worse than where we came from.
Where is Sama?
She tricked us.
She just gave us up, and left!
What's left for me?
What's left for me?
All this just for this?
There's nothing else?
It's just the law of the strongest
over the weakest?
It's only that?
What's left for me?
I killed my brother.
And I let Chacha die.
Is that all I have left?
Nothing else?
Before, it was all good.
I had my mum and dad.
I was used to them going away.
And them hiding me in the basement.
It was all dark, no sounds.
And I waited.
But this time they never came back.
After two ays there was no food left.
I was scared.
And the rats came.
I couldn't see them,
but they were there.
Because the next day they ate
part of my finger.
Men came.
And they opened.
And I didn't move.
An they left.
I got out, and saw the group.
At night, I can't shut my eyes.
Because I'm scared.
Scared of the dreams.
They are all dark
An I'm alone.
I'm... still inside.
And I never got out.
Blood!
I'm hurt!
Guys, come!
Come.
I'm sick of this.
I'm tired of it.
I'm going somewhere else.
If you want to come with me...
Move!
I knew they would come here.
Thanks for bringing them.
What do we do with this one?
Take him for reproduction.
It's so long since he left.
But he'll come back.
He has to come back.
I'm staying here until he comes back.
What's your name?
Tisha.
He fell in one of those traps.
