1:06:03
We're deep in mockery.
1:06:06
You either fight it
or do as I do.
1:06:10
Revel in it.
1:06:13
You can be a hero here,
but nobody'll know.
1:06:16
A mere drop of water
in this ocean of jade...
1:06:21
but it's your drop of water.
1:06:23
And our presence here?
1:06:25
Nothing.
1:06:27
Ghosts of the empire.
1:06:32
From here,
observation of foreign vessels.
1:06:37
Some sampans, fishermen...
1:06:39
nothing.
1:06:41
The pirates stay far away
from the bay.
1:06:46
Occasionally we make our presence
known to the world.
1:06:49
We fire the cannon at a target,
a suspicious boat.
1:06:53
Nothing much.
1:06:58
But once a month...
1:07:01
the celebration.
1:07:05
The big celebration!
1:07:07
The slave market.
1:07:11
Up north they recruit
manual laborers...
1:07:14
volunteers.
1:07:16
They have no choice.
They're too hungry.
1:07:40
Here's where we serve France!
1:07:43
The volunteers are brought here...
1:07:46
and under your lofty supervision
the southern buyers pick workers...
1:07:50
for the plantations
of Cochin China.
1:07:53
You need do nothing,
just be here.
