Taken Down

[Indistinct talking on loudspeaker]

Okay. Avanti. Avanti.

[Camera shutter clicking, man speaking Italian]

- Abeni. Abeni?

Abeni Bankole.

Abeni Bankole.

Good boy, Isaiah.

My... My children...

How long will we be here?

As soon as we get through this.

Your husband. He died in the crossing?

He died from his burns.

The chemicals from the fuel... on the boat.

I could not even touch him...

my husband...

because of the chemical burns on his body.

What's with the numbers?

It's my phone number.

If they get lost from me.

I am all they have.

I am submitting an application for asylum for you.

If the application is accepted,

you will be granted asylum and protection in Ireland.

While the case is being assessed, you and your children

will be housed in temporary accommodation

called a direct provision center...

where your basic needs of food and shelter

will be provided.

Our new home will be this place now.

How long will it take

before I know if we can stay in your country, sir?

The processing can take a number of weeks... or months.

Mum?

Mum!

I need an example of onomatopoeia.

- -

Fuck off! Get out! You can't be barging in here!

Ma!

Isaiah, I hope you are not sending naked pictures

of yourself to girls.

No, I'm not.

It's against the law. You will get into trouble.

It's not against the law, and I'm not sending anything.

Tell him to get out.

Isaiah, you are breaking the curfew again.

Ma, I need a life. I'm meeting people.

Who? Who are you meeting?

Friends.

You will get us all into trouble.

Please, Ma.

I have to work tonight.

Help Oba with his homework, and you can go.

But be back before curfew, okay?

Yeah. Thanks, Ma.

Go on, then.

I need to use onomatopoeia in a sentence,

like the word sounds like what it does.

Oh, yeah. I know what it means.

The bomb goes boom!

Fuck.

As-salamu alaykum.

Is the scene preserved?

Get whatever S.H.O. was on

to give us as many uniforms as he can spare.

I'll let the super know.

Don't tell me you were in there on your own.

Go on, then.

Stop looking at me. I'm all right.

[Indistinct conversations, door closes]

Super's coming down now.

Got a few of the hacks on the way.

I can look after them if you want.

Looking for a job in the press office now, are you, Fitzy?

It's all set up in there for you.

What's that building there?

I think it's something to do with the incinerator.

It's a water treatment plant.

And that?

It's a direct provision center for refugees.

It's the only time in the day

there's no waiting in line for the washing machine.

But you were working the night, Abeni.

When do you sleep?

I can't sleep.

I can't ever sleep.

What is wrong, Samir?

The world is a bad place, Abeni.

Isaiah! You dey kolo!

It is daytime already. Get up!

Shu'gba!

You did not even clean, butty.

Ma, you see this?

- All the guards. - I know.

- Come away from the window, Oba. -

Someone has been killed.

Isaiah.

Please come away from the window.

Do you think it's someone from here, Mum?

I hope not.

Check the buses for dash-cam CCTV.

- All right, Inspector. - How are you, Macken?

- How long have you been here? - Since early.

Just got the call after the breakfast, so.

Thanks be to fuck.

It's hard to eat after seeing that.

What's the story with the body? Has she been ID'ed?

No, not yet. No ID on her.

She's a black girl. Looks foreign.

Inspector Clouseau here.

She asked, didn't she? Smart mouth.

No phone?

No phone, no bank cards. Nothing.

- Just empty wallet inside there. - She was robbed?

Except there's money inside, in her jacket.

She looks like she's been battered.

A shot of that for me.

Cig? Super's here.

Don't ask me too much. I'm not long here.

Was it done here?

No.

It hasn't rained. Nothing to wash the blood away.

She was moved.

Her primary wound was still bleeding a little

when she was left here.

She wasn't dead?

Super.

I have a press conference in 20 minutes.

Any updates for me?

We're getting cameras off buses.

Hopefully someone in the direct provision center across the way

knows who she is.

What can you give me?

Resources are tight.

You see.

Yeah? We're always tight.

I'd like Detective Fitzgerald on board for this one.

The dash cams from the buses will be with us this afternoon.

We driving?

Sure. Why the hell not?

Come on if you're coming.

[Birds crying, horn blows in distance]

Manager's name is Wayne...

Sorry. I can't find it.

Where the hell is it? Sorry.

Where the hell is it?

Deevy, Wayne.

Wayne Deevy. How are youse?

Jesus. It's mad. Unbelievable.

Your colleague was filling me in about the bus stop.

You think it could be one of ours?

Is anybody missing?

Jesus. I don't think so.

Hopefully not. We'll go inside.

Have you CCTV on the front gate?

Yeah. No. I mean, there was.

It's not working now. It's supposed to work.

Same as yourselves. Cutbacks, you know?

Any other CCTV on the premises?

- Oh, yeah. - And on the grounds?

It's in places, you know?

It's not 100 percent, but you know yourselves.

Now...
