I have seen the movie with spanishs subtitules and this part didn't appear in the subtitles.

Thanks!

what language do you need it translated in to? English? Japanese?

I think Japanese would be better. 英語の字幕の力が弱いから。

Conversation between Saku and the 2 Men:

Man 1: You two are really lucky. You don't come across cars quite wandering around here.
Man 2: Where are you from?
Saku: Japan.
Man 2: Japan? Where the heck is that?
Man 1: Where are you heading to?
Saku: Uluru.
Man 1: Uluru. We are on our way to our second burial. Mom died. We buried that body twice. First for the body and second for the bone.
Saku: Have you returned the bone to the ground?
Man 1: That's right. The blood and the sweat in the dead body will soak into the soil of dew and descend in the cypress spring under the ground. So the soul of the dead body also follow that path and becomes a holy spirit which lives down there.

Those guys were native aborigines of Australia. I guess that's why they hadn't heard of Japan. Of course there are college-educated aborigines even though that's kind of rare. They are treated as second-class citizens in their own country. Asking where's Japan almost sounds like these guys had never seen a globe or a map of earth or listened to the news. (They probably never did). A sad statement about their education. They can sniff out a drop of water and survive for weeks in the outback, but know nothing about the world at large.

Anyway...

When Saku let the ashes go, they would have had to travel quite a distance to get to Ayers Rock (Uluru). I don't know what mound that Saku was standing on, but that darn sure wasn't Ayers Rock. They couldn't have used Ayers Rock in the movie because it's such a tourist attraction they'd never get any decent filming done. The aborigines are fairly pissed about white Australains using their sacred grounds as an effin' tourist attraction and I can't blame them.
