:04:12
Puppet, sir.
Only 10 piastres.
:04:15
They're crap, squirrel.
They fall apart before you're out of the door.
:04:18
Five then, sir.
It's handmade!
:04:21
Please.
:04:22
My sister, she's very, very sick.
:04:26
I know your sister.
She's peddling in the next bar over.
:04:29
- Do you know my mother?
- No.
:04:32
She's very, very sick.
:04:36
I'll give you two.
:04:40
That's a bad idea, you know.
:04:42
Like feeding pigeons.
:04:48
- Do I know you?
- My name is Semelier.
:04:52
I work for a private collector
of rare antiquities.
:04:54
- I cabled you last week.
- Yes.
:04:57
And I didn't answer.
:04:59
There's been a discovery
in East Africa.
:05:03
A Christian church, circa 5 A.D.
:05:05
No, it's not possible.
:05:08
The Byzantine Empire
had adopted Christianity at that time...
:05:10
but they never got that far south.
:05:13
Nevertheless, there it sits.
:05:15
The British have financed
a dig to uncover this church.
:05:18
We believe a rare object waits inside.
:05:20
We'd like you to find it
and bring it back to us.
:05:23
So you think I'm a thief?
:05:29
Now you think I'm a thief
and a whore.
:05:32
No. Simply a man
who's lost faith...
:05:35
in everything except himself.
:05:37
Ah.
You know nothing about me.
:05:40
You're an Oxford-educated
archaeologist...
:05:42
an expert in religious icons.
:05:45
You were a priest before the war.
So what happened?
:05:56
This is a leather impression of
the artifact we're looking for...
:05:59
a representation
of a mythical demon.
