Joaquin points out that before Mark can accept forgiveness from others, he must learn to forgive himself first, as forgiveness is “something no person can give you”.

Mark talks about how he travelled to the Luwero Triangle to find the shocking scene of survivors “harvesting the bones of the dead”. As we hear this story, Mark still seems to be using his camera as an excuse to feel no emotion.
