Jeanne:
It's happening, isn't it? I should never have listened to you! We should have left a long time ago for Kenya or for Senegal, I don't know, but...!
Augustin:
I'm in the military. This is our home.
Jeanne:
Yes, but tell me: how can I call this home when I'm living in constant fear, Augustin? I already lost most of my family in '92. There's only us now.
Augustin:
I can't just get up and run! Abandon everything? What?
Jeanne:
We should have brought Anne-Marie back sooner!
Augustin:
She's safer in the countryside than in Kigali. Come on!
Jeanne:
Come on, wake up!... Nobody is safe in this country! Have you seen the Hutu Ten Commandments? Somebody put it on my desk today at the hospital! They even underlined number seven: "The Rwandese Armed Forces shall be exclusively Hutu; no member of the military shall marry a Tutsi."
Augustin:
Jeanne...
Jeanne:
Now I'm talking about our children's lives. If anything happens, they will let us all die.
