1:04:03
We fire the cannon at a target,
a suspicious boat.
1:04:07
Nothing much.
1:04:11
But once a month...
1:04:15
the celebration.
1:04:18
The big celebration!
1:04:20
The slave market.
1:04:24
Up north they recruit
manual laborers...
1:04:26
volunteers.
1:04:28
They have no choice.
They're too hungry.
1:04:52
Here's where we serve France!
1:04:55
The volunteers are brought here...
1:04:58
and under your lotty supervision
the southern buyers pick workers...
1:05:02
for the plantations
of Cochin China.
1:05:04
You need do nothing,
just be here.
1:05:24
For the first time,
I let someone else take over.
1:05:28
Madame Minh Tam
had arranged everything.
1:05:30
Camille was with her
and would marry Tanh.
1:05:34
Camille returned to her relatives.
1:05:37
She was shut inside the palace
for days of meditation...
1:05:39
and purification,
imposed by court tradition...
1:05:42
upon fiancees.
1:05:51
Being a European,
I couldn't be at the ceremony.
1:05:55
But Madame Minh Tam had arranged
a meeting with Camille...
1:05:59
the day before the engagement.
