The gather perls and the british get interested. Something about some kid having to travel to britain to get his dad who has been taken?"
Well, you're close.
A group of people (probably Native Americans) who live by the sea have to live day by day by finding what little pearls they can on a seabed that once made the King of Spain rich. One day, one of them (Kino) finds a pearl the size of a sea gulls egg, and the entire town knows about it. But things get out of hand when thieves (probably sent by the greedy doctor) try to steal the pearl. Kino murders one of them, and the others burn down his hut. He then runs from the authorities. Eventually, he is trapped in a cave with his wife and son, and with the trackers near by, Kino gets hasty. But before the conflict, one of them hears Kino's baby crying, and blows his head off. Kino kills two of them (maybe the third was just knocked unconcious) and Kino returns to his village to throw the pearl back into the ocean.

Bah, that took two hours. Would have taken one if I went a bit quicker (and didnt have the program load all of the media at start up
)
The Last 4 were spent on the first scene (which is not shown, and will not be shown until I get off my arse to complete it).
