DIAZ:
Good morning, my children.

:02:15
Well, come closer. Come closer.
:02:21
Here are their names, my president.
:02:26
Now then, my children,
what's the problem you've brought me?

:02:32
Well, someone has to tell.
You must have come for something.

:02:41
Yes, my president,
we have come for something.

:02:50
Well, you. You tell me.
:02:55
You know that field?
:02:57
That field with the big white rock
just south of Anenecuilco?

:03:02
- My president, our delegation...
PABLO: Shh!

:03:04
- They've taken our land away.
- Who took your land away?

:03:11
Children, when you make accusations,
be certain you have the facts.

:03:16
- Who took your land away?
- The biggest state there.

:03:21
- It's bigger than a kingdom.
- They've taken our valleys.

:03:24
- Left us only the rocky hillside.
YOUNG MAN: We can't grow our corn.

:03:27
OLD MAN: That's right.
There's a new fence with barbed wire.

:03:30
We can't feed our cows.
Those three houses by that white rock?

:03:37
- They burned those!
- They're planting sugarcane in our land.

:03:40
Can you prove that you own this field?
:03:45
Our village has owned this land
since before history.

:03:50
We have a paper from the Spanish crown
and from the Mexican Republic.

:03:56
Well, if this is true, you have no
problem. The courts will settle this.
