    If you catch the timing of the “haunting” by Mami Wata/La Sirene and Anansi didn’t begin until Lamine transitioned. I think he drowned the day she did that overnight surprise party for the husband. Her cousins video said “ before we leave the beach tell mommy bye” Also I dont think that the cousin was ever going to tell her Lamine died. She was caught trying to catch a cab. She took all the cash she was sending for herself. She wanted to be in the US.

    There was a conversation happening just before Aisha saw her son at ay the park (when he wasn't really there) under the sprinklers. The other two Nanny's were talking about another nanny who went crazy and cut the child ear to ear.
    Sounds like an eye for an eye, the spirits just wanting blood.

  • @TheCRYSTALLURE
    @TheCRYSTALLURE Год назад +41

    I also think that after he drowned he showed Aisha in many ways how to “rebirth” herself and that final drowning scene at the pier was the full rebirth. But I’d like to point out that when Aisha lost Rose at the park & Lamine showed up by the sprinklers (notice he always showed up near water or in the form of water - hence the connection to how he died - drowning) it was similar to how the Cousin might’ve lost Lamine when they went to the beach . So he was in a way showing her that it only takes a few seconds & a child/person watching the child’s life could change in an instant as that’s what happened to him & why he drowned. So like Rose said, Lamine was jealous so he might’ve done the distraction at the park so Aisha could see what it felt like to be in his & the cousin’s shoes.

    Interesting analysis. If you haven't already, you should look into the case of the Krim children in New York. It may have been some inspiration for this story, especially the bathtub element. There is a novel about the case, titled "The Perfect Nanny," which was made into a French film, "Lullaby." Curiously, there hasn't yet been an accurate film made from the events, always changing the casting and climax. There could be some messy politics involved.

      @TheCRYSTALLURE Год назад +1

      @@Only1SunnySecular I think that’s subjective. He didn’t try to kill her but maybe show her so she could feel him. Lamine wasn’t w/ her for nearly a full year. So he missed his mom, her presence, physical being etc… but he also probably needed a way to make his presence known. Spirits don’t have an easy way of letting themselves be known. That’s why some “haunt” doesn’t mean it’s a bad spirit, but they can’t just touch our shoulder or open the door & say “hey it’s me”. He died in a violent way so that could be why he felt the need to damn near drown her.
      Also some people don’t make a new pregnancy some sort of miracle or even a saving grace to replace their other child. That could very well be Lamine’s spirit being rebirthed, or just simply a way for him to move on. It’s not like Aisha even knew she was pregnant, got pregnant on purpose nor did we see her fully accept her first child’s death fully cause that’s where the movie ends. We don’t even see that second child born yet. Correct it doesn’t take away the sorrow but I don’t think that was even the intention of her being pregnant being mentioned. We saw her grieve the beginning stage yes but death of a child will always have a chokehold until the day the mother dies (& don’t forget she did try to kill herself).
