Dry Season (French Daratt; another French title is Saison sèche) is 2006 cooperate Chadian-French-Belgian-Austrian movie.
The following weapons were used in the film Dry Season:
WARNING! Major spoiler
Pistols
Inglis Hi-Power
Gumar Abatcha (Khayar Oumar Defallah) presents an old Inglis Hi-Power to Atim (Ali Barkai), who uses it throughout the movie. The screen gun lacks a humped rear sight and has a hammer spur, not a ring hammer, so it is most likely that a Belgian slide from a Browning Hi-Power is used on an Inglis frame. At one point, a similar looking pistol can be seen in Nassara's armory, which is the same prop.
Browning Hi-Power "Type 73" - 9x19mm. These Hi-Powers feature elongated bushings different from Hi-Powers Made before 1973 and after the MK II Series.

The pistol is partly seen in Atim's pocket.

The Fat Soldier (Abderamane Abakar) pulls a Walther PPK/S at two points. Atim (Ali Barkai) later takes it for himself. At one point, a similar looking pistol can be seen in Nassara's armory. It's obviously the same prop.
