00:04:42.407 --> 00:04:43.817
Please...

00:04:44.368 --> 00:04:48.618
THE TWINS

00:05:11.144 --> 00:05:13.904
Will of Mrs Nawal Marwan.

00:05:14.022 --> 00:05:17.022
Opening of the will
before her two children,

00:05:17.150 --> 00:05:20.900
Simon Marwan
and Jeanne Marwan.

00:05:23.031 --> 00:05:28.161
In conformance with the instructions
and rights of Mrs Nawal Marwan,

00:05:29.246 --> 00:05:34.076
Notary Jean Lebel is named
executor of the will.

00:05:37.254 --> 00:05:39.264
That was your mother's decision.

00:05:40.173 --> 00:05:43.183
I was against it, but she insisted.

00:05:46.179 --> 00:05:47.259
You know...

00:05:48.348 --> 00:05:51.228
your mother was more
than an employee.

00:05:51.351 --> 00:05:54.401
My late wife and I
considered you our family.

00:05:54.521 --> 00:05:57.901
So...I couldn't refuse.

00:06:01.611 --> 00:06:05.701
All my assets are divided between
the twins Jeanne and Simon.

00:06:05.824 --> 00:06:07.664
My money will be halved,

00:06:07.784 --> 00:06:10.874
and my belongings
divided as they see fit.

00:06:12.748 --> 00:06:14.168
Burial.

00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.460
To Notary Jean Lebel:

00:06:17.586 --> 00:06:22.546
bury me with no casket,
no prayers, naked,

00:06:22.674 --> 00:06:25.974
face down,
away from the world.

00:06:28.930 --> 00:06:30.770
Stone and epitaph.

00:06:31.975 --> 00:06:35.765
I want no gravestone,
nor my name engraved anywhere.

00:06:35.896 --> 00:06:39.476
No epitaph for those
who don't keep their promises.

00:06:41.068 --> 00:06:43.278
To Jeanne and Simon:

00:06:43.403 --> 00:06:46.743
childhood is a knife
stuck in your throat.

00:06:46.865 --> 00:06:49.025
It can't be easily removed.

00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:56.080
Jeanne, Mr Lebel will give you
an envelope.

00:06:57.876 --> 00:07:00.996
The envelope is for your father.

00:07:02.297 --> 00:07:05.257
Find him and give it to him.

00:07:09.513 --> 00:07:12.223
Simon, the notary will give you
an envelope...

00:07:12.349 --> 00:07:14.389
I've heard enough.

00:07:16.103 --> 00:07:18.233
I haven't finished.

00:07:21.316 --> 00:07:22.726
Go on.

00:07:24.194 --> 00:07:27.074
Simon, the notary will give you
an envelope.

00:07:27.197 --> 00:07:29.907
The envelope is for your brother.

00:07:31.868 --> 00:07:34.948
Find him and give him
the envelope.

00:07:36.373 --> 00:07:39.043
TO THE SON

00:07:39.918 --> 00:07:42.878
When the envelopes
have been delivered,

00:07:43.004 --> 00:07:44.924
you will be given a letter.

00:07:45.799 --> 00:07:48.259
The silence will be broken,

00:07:48.385 --> 00:07:50.585
a promise kept,

00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:54.390
and you can place a stone
on my grave and on it engrave

00:07:54.516 --> 00:07:56.516
my name in the sun.

00:08:10.615 --> 00:08:12.865
I admit, it's unusual.

00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:23.630
- Anything to sign?
- No, not today.

00:08:24.671 --> 00:08:26.461
OK.

00:08:26.590 --> 00:08:28.130
Thanks, Jean.

00:08:28.258 --> 00:08:30.128
- Let's go.
- Wait.

00:08:33.346 --> 00:08:35.596
You know about our father.

00:08:36.683 --> 00:08:38.773
And that we have no brother.

00:08:38.894 --> 00:08:41.234
Why did you let her write that?

00:08:43.190 --> 00:08:46.980
I understand your reaction.
It's very surprising.

00:08:47.110 --> 00:08:50.860
Don't pretend you buy this.
You knew her. It can't be.

00:08:50.989 --> 00:08:54.529
One doesn't invent such things,
not in a will.

00:08:56.077 --> 00:08:58.077
There's this, too.

00:09:13.845 --> 00:09:17.135
Look, your mother has left us
something rather...

00:09:17.933 --> 00:09:20.023
We'll sleep on it and...

00:09:21.311 --> 00:09:22.981
We'll be in touch.

00:09:23.104 --> 00:09:25.314
I'll wait outside.
Thank you, Jean.

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:27.150
Sit down, Simon.

00:09:27.943 --> 00:09:29.533
Look, Jean...

00:09:30.612 --> 00:09:33.822
Your secretary liked working for you.

00:09:33.949 --> 00:09:36.659
At least she did that right. Bravo.

00:09:38.161 --> 00:09:40.291
But your secretary was my mother.

00:09:41.248 --> 00:09:43.498
And that job,
a whole other matter...

00:09:43.625 --> 00:09:44.665
Simon...

00:09:44.793 --> 00:09:47.423
Bury your secretary how you want.

00:09:47.545 --> 00:09:49.755
But I'll bury my mother normally.

00:09:49.881 --> 00:09:53.471
For once in her life
she'll have acted normally.

00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:57.509
End of discussion.

00:10:11.444 --> 00:10:15.034
Take your time.
Come back when Simon's calmer.

00:10:19.536 --> 00:10:22.286
I know it's very unusual, but...

00:10:25.917 --> 00:10:28.377
...your mother wasn't crazy,
Jeanne.

00:10:46.896 --> 00:10:49.146
We're a big family suddenly.

00:10:53.903 --> 00:10:56.073
She ever mention a dog?

00:10:56.197 --> 00:10:58.737
Big families always have a dog.

00:10:58.867 --> 00:11:01.487
Do we have to find it now too?

00:11:01.619 --> 00:11:03.619
She's fucking crazy.

00:11:09.461 --> 00:11:11.421
I'll talk to Jean.

00:11:11.546 --> 00:11:13.206
About what?

00:11:13.340 --> 00:11:15.380
Having a normal funeral.

00:11:18.386 --> 00:11:21.136
We'll take care of her, then you.

00:11:34.652 --> 00:11:36.572
Where you going?

00:11:36.696 --> 00:11:39.866
- Bury her any way you want.
- Cut it out.

00:11:42.452 --> 00:11:44.662
You weren't there when she died,

00:11:44.788 --> 00:11:47.918
you were there when
she had her accident...

00:11:48.041 --> 00:11:50.381
You feel guilty about everything!

00:11:51.044 --> 00:11:52.964
I don't feel guilty.

00:11:53.088 --> 00:11:55.298
Do you realize what we just heard?

00:11:55.423 --> 00:11:58.513
She's gone, Christ!
It's over. Peace at last!

00:12:03.515 --> 00:12:05.965
I feel so fucking peaceful!

00:12:10.980 --> 00:12:12.860
I'm at peace.

00:12:15.652 --> 00:12:17.652
I can see that.

00:12:21.282 --> 00:12:24.242
The mathematics
you've studied until now

00:12:24.369 --> 00:12:28.539
have sought to provide
clear and definitive answers

00:12:28.665 --> 00:12:31.995
to clear and definitive problems.

00:12:32.127 --> 00:12:35.047
Now you are embarking
on a new adventure.

00:12:35.171 --> 00:12:37.631
You will face insoluble problems

00:12:37.757 --> 00:12:41.927
that will lead to other,
equally insoluble problems.

00:12:42.846 --> 00:12:48.056
Friends will insist that the object
of your toil is futile.

00:12:48.184 --> 00:12:51.524
You'll have no way
of defending yourself,

00:12:51.646 --> 00:12:55.516
for the problems will be
of mind-boggling complexity.

00:12:56.901 --> 00:13:01.701
Welcome to pure mathematics
and the realm of solitude.

00:13:01.823 --> 00:13:06.743
Let me introduce my assistant,
Miss Jeanne Marwan.

00:13:07.829 --> 00:13:09.249
Hello.

00:13:13.042 --> 00:13:15.422
We'll start with
the Collatz conjecture.

00:13:18.381 --> 00:13:20.921
What does your intuition tell you?

00:13:28.016 --> 00:13:30.556
Your intuition is always right.

00:13:30.685 --> 00:13:34.605
That's why you have the makings
of a true mathematician.

00:13:34.731 --> 00:13:37.651
But for this,
you're going to need help.

00:13:38.776 --> 00:13:40.816
Do you have family there?

00:13:42.280 --> 00:13:44.820
- Any contacts?
- It's ridiculous, Niv.

00:13:44.949 --> 00:13:48.329
You just learned that
a) your father is alive,

00:13:48.453 --> 00:13:51.373
and b) you have another brother.

00:13:51.498 --> 00:13:55.538
What's ridiculous is
to challenge the inevitable.

00:13:55.668 --> 00:14:00.458
You have to know,
or your mind will never be at peace.

00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:06.639
And without peace of mind,
no pure mathematics.

00:14:10.016 --> 00:14:12.176
You need a starting point.

00:14:18.066 --> 00:14:20.776
My father died during the war,
in Daresh.

00:14:20.902 --> 00:14:23.032
That's the unknown variable.

00:14:23.154 --> 00:14:25.534
You never start
with the unknown variable.

00:14:28.201 --> 00:14:31.201
My mother's from Der Om,
a village in the Fouad.

00:14:33.331 --> 00:14:36.581
She studied French
at Daresh University.

00:14:36.709 --> 00:14:39.419
If she studied, there's hope.

00:14:41.422 --> 00:14:43.012
Saïd Haidar.

00:14:44.175 --> 00:14:46.755
You'll pay a visit to Saïd Haidar.

00:14:46.886 --> 00:14:51.006
An old friend who teaches in Daresh.
You can trust him.

00:17:38.224 --> 00:17:39.934
Mum?

00:17:40.059 --> 00:17:41.889
Are you alright?

00:17:47.275 --> 00:17:48.935
What are you doing?

00:17:49.068 --> 00:17:51.148
Mum?

00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:53.199
Are you OK?

00:17:55.742 --> 00:17:58.332
Madame, you're on my towel.

00:17:59.746 --> 00:18:28.766
Mum?

00:18:30.943 --> 00:18:32.613
What happened?

00:18:35.239 --> 00:18:37.069
Where's Jeanne?

00:18:39.619 --> 00:18:41.039
Mum?

00:18:53.633 --> 00:18:56.303
- Does she get migraines?
- No.

00:18:56.427 --> 00:18:59.047
- Memory lapses?
- No.

00:18:59.180 --> 00:19:02.180
- Incidences of falling?
- No.

00:19:02.308 --> 00:19:04.558
Moments of confusion?

00:19:04.685 --> 00:19:06.725
She's usually confused.

00:19:06.854 --> 00:19:08.734
No, she's never confused.

00:20:19.093 --> 00:20:20.893
Wahab, come.

00:20:43.868 --> 00:20:45.578
Let go of my sister.

00:20:47.580 --> 00:20:50.920
Where are you going,
son of a refugee?

00:20:56.213 --> 00:20:58.673
Nicolas, stop!

00:20:58.799 --> 00:21:00.589
Go back home!

00:21:01.427 --> 00:21:02.927
Wahab!

00:21:03.054 --> 00:21:06.014
We'll seek you in your camps
and slaughter you!

00:21:06.807 --> 00:21:08.427
Give it!

00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:10.309
- I want to.
- It's my duty.

00:21:12.313 --> 00:21:15.323
You stained our family's honour.

00:21:15.441 --> 00:21:19.651
That's enough!
Come home now!

00:21:19.779 --> 00:21:21.359
Come home!

00:21:28.704 --> 00:21:30.294
Get away!

00:21:36.921 --> 00:21:39.091
What have you done?

00:21:39.215 --> 00:21:42.465
You've humiliated us,
ruined the family name!

00:21:42.593 --> 00:21:47.853
Why, my God, have you
cast us into darkness?

00:21:49.100 --> 00:21:52.640
My God, what have you done?
Why did you do this to me?

00:21:52.770 --> 00:21:55.810
What am I to do with you?
Should I kill you?

00:21:57.608 --> 00:21:59.728
I'm pregnant, Grandma.

00:21:59.860 --> 00:22:04.530
My God, blackness everywhere!
Why?

00:22:04.657 --> 00:22:09.657
Why did you do this to us?
Am I supposed to kill you?

00:22:09.787 --> 00:22:12.457
What am I going to do with you?

00:23:31.994 --> 00:23:33.414
Eat.

00:23:35.164 --> 00:23:38.174
Eat if you want your child
to be strong.

00:23:44.423 --> 00:23:46.173
Listen to me carefully.

00:23:47.009 --> 00:23:49.299
There's nothing here for you now.

00:23:50.596 --> 00:23:53.386
I'll help you after the birth.

00:23:53.516 --> 00:23:55.976
I want you to leave here.

00:23:57.311 --> 00:24:01.821
You'll stay with your Uncle Charbel
in town.

00:24:01.941 --> 00:24:04.441
You'll go to school there.

00:24:04.568 --> 00:24:10.028
You'll learn to read, to think.
To escape this misery.

00:24:11.700 --> 00:24:14.240
Promise me and I'll help you.

00:24:16.664 --> 00:24:20.254
Promise me that you'll go to school.

00:24:26.841 --> 00:24:28.841
I promise you, Grandma.

00:24:30.803 --> 00:24:32.643
I promise you.

00:27:13.882 --> 00:27:18.142
Take a good look at your mother.
So you'll recognize her.

00:27:20.931 --> 00:27:26.691
I'll find you again one day.
I promise you, my love.

00:27:37.281 --> 00:27:39.781
- Be careful.
- Don't worry.

00:28:13.901 --> 00:28:16.531
Come, it's time you left.

00:28:17.738 --> 00:28:21.028
I see terrible times ahead.

00:28:37.549 --> 00:28:40.429
One day I'll find you, my son.

00:30:16.940 --> 00:30:21.360
I received the message
from my friend Niv Cohen,

00:30:21.487 --> 00:30:25.567
but I can't help you,
because, back then,

00:30:25.699 --> 00:30:29.789
I was teaching the history
of mathematics at Paris XI.

00:30:30.621 --> 00:30:32.461
More precisely,

00:30:32.581 --> 00:30:37.671
the period when
Leonhard Euler succeeded,

00:30:37.794 --> 00:30:42.804
although blind, in first providing
a formal mathematical resolution

00:30:42.925 --> 00:30:46.505
to the problem of
the Seven Bridges of Kِnigsberg.

00:30:46.637 --> 00:30:50.387
Yes, he defied Diderot
at the Court

00:30:50.516 --> 00:30:52.676
by declaring,

00:30:52.809 --> 00:30:59.109
"Sir,
e (exponent) pi + 1 = 0.

00:31:00.150 --> 00:31:02.070
"Therefore, God exists!"

00:31:04.488 --> 00:31:06.568
Niv, Niv, Niv...

00:31:20.921 --> 00:31:23.591
Hello. Do you speak French?

00:31:23.715 --> 00:31:25.585
Of course. Can I help you?

00:31:25.717 --> 00:31:29.047
I'm looking for someone
who might know this woman.

00:31:30.138 --> 00:31:33.558
She studied here
about 35 years ago.

00:31:34.768 --> 00:31:38.348
You're kidding, right?
I wasn't born. I can't help...

00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:42.280
No, I'm not kidding.
You must know someone who can help.

00:31:42.401 --> 00:31:46.821
I've travelled too far. Please.
Her name is Nawal Marwan.

00:31:56.707 --> 00:31:58.617
You're kind.

00:31:58.750 --> 00:32:01.090
No, I want to get rid of you.

00:32:01.211 --> 00:32:03.461
Najat, it's me.

00:32:03.589 --> 00:32:05.459
Got any time to waste?

00:32:07.092 --> 00:32:09.262
She looks familiar.

00:32:09.386 --> 00:32:13.506
Perhaps she worked
on the student newspaper.

00:32:15.058 --> 00:32:16.888
That was long ago.

00:32:18.854 --> 00:32:22.614
The people who left
changed their identity.

00:32:26.194 --> 00:32:28.454
But it's striking.

00:32:38.790 --> 00:32:42.880
The photograph of your mother
was taken in Kfar Ryat.

00:32:43.587 --> 00:32:45.797
Look here.

00:32:45.922 --> 00:32:48.722
It's the sign for Kfar Ryat.

00:32:49.718 --> 00:32:52.598
It's a prison in the South.

00:32:57.351 --> 00:33:00.481
- You don't know of Kfar Ryat?
- No.

00:33:00.604 --> 00:33:03.774
Then you're definitely not from here.

00:33:05.150 --> 00:33:07.780
You don't know the South.

00:33:39.351 --> 00:33:46.821
If the international community
does not intervene immediately,

00:33:48.360 --> 00:33:49.990
the refugees...

00:33:50.904 --> 00:33:56.124
...crammed into camps
along the border...

00:33:58.954 --> 00:34:00.374
She's here.

00:34:02.541 --> 00:34:05.041
We students oppose
the Nationalist Party

00:34:05.168 --> 00:34:07.588
and expelling the refugees
in the South.

00:34:07.713 --> 00:34:10.593
The Nationalists support
the Christian right,

00:34:10.716 --> 00:34:12.756
who openly threaten
the refugees.

00:34:12.884 --> 00:34:15.594
The refugees are armed and...

00:34:17.639 --> 00:34:21.269
...and have the support of most
of the Muslims in this country.

00:34:21.393 --> 00:34:25.403
But you yourself are Christian.

00:34:25.522 --> 00:34:29.022
We stand for peace.
This is not about religion.

00:34:39.035 --> 00:34:40.825
Nawal! Nawal!

00:34:40.954 --> 00:34:43.084
The radio!
They shut the university!

00:34:43.206 --> 00:34:45.956
The Nationalists closed
down the campus!

00:35:02.309 --> 00:35:06.769
Nawal, come back!
Stay here!

00:35:08.356 --> 00:35:11.276
Uncle Charbel,
they shut the campus!

00:35:11.401 --> 00:35:15.361
There will be fighting!

00:35:15.489 --> 00:35:18.029
I want you to stay with me!

00:35:36.301 --> 00:35:38.301
There's gunfire.

00:35:40.347 --> 00:35:43.217
- Girls, come eat!
- Mum, they attacked the university!

00:35:43.350 --> 00:35:46.100
That's no reason not to eat!

00:36:25.934 --> 00:36:29.444
Christian villages in the South
were attacked.

00:36:29.563 --> 00:36:31.313
God help us!

00:36:31.439 --> 00:36:33.729
That's why they shut the university.

00:36:33.859 --> 00:36:37.279
It won't be long
before it blows up here too.

00:36:38.947 --> 00:36:44.077
We'll go to the mountains
until things calm down.

00:36:44.202 --> 00:36:46.122
For how long?

00:36:46.246 --> 00:36:48.036
We go tomorrow.

00:36:48.790 --> 00:36:51.130
The rest of the family
is already there.

00:36:51.251 --> 00:36:53.341
What about school?

00:36:53.461 --> 00:36:58.421
The schools will close anyway.
God only knows until when.

00:36:59.175 --> 00:37:01.965
- And the newspaper?
- Don't worry.

00:37:03.430 --> 00:37:06.100
The paper can survive
without us for a while.

00:37:06.766 --> 00:37:10.136
Ideas only survive
if we're there to defend them.

00:37:10.270 --> 00:37:14.440
Exactly, Rafqa. Exactly.

00:37:26.202 --> 00:37:30.292
There are two orphanages there.
I'll come later on foot.

00:37:31.166 --> 00:37:33.536
You're not going there now.

00:37:35.503 --> 00:37:38.463
- You promised Grandma...
- You heard your father.

00:37:39.925 --> 00:37:43.215
If they attack the camps,
the country's lost.

00:37:43.345 --> 00:37:45.045
School's finished.

00:37:49.726 --> 00:37:51.886
I think of him every day.

00:37:52.020 --> 00:37:54.150
He's my child.

00:37:54.272 --> 00:37:56.272
I want to find him.

00:38:16.836 --> 00:38:21.876
- I'm going to Shadia's for water.
- Make it quick, Nawal.

00:40:21.586 --> 00:40:23.546
- Name?
- Nawal.

00:40:23.671 --> 00:40:25.671
- Nawal what?
- Nawal Marwan.

00:40:26.716 --> 00:40:29.376
- Where are you going?
- The South.

00:40:29.511 --> 00:40:32.551
- Why?
- To join my husband.

00:42:55.031 --> 00:42:56.661
Wahab...

00:43:23.059 --> 00:43:25.889
It's always been
a girls' orphanage?

00:43:26.020 --> 00:43:28.860
The boys moved
to Kfar Khout 3 years ago.

00:43:31.276 --> 00:43:34.736
Come with us. Kfar Khout
was attacked yesterday.

00:45:04.660 --> 00:45:08.160
I'm looking for the orphanage.
Do you know where it is?

00:45:08.289 --> 00:45:10.329
There.

00:45:10.458 --> 00:45:14.038
The children!
Where are the children?

00:45:14.170 --> 00:45:17.010
Ask someone who was there.

00:45:17.131 --> 00:45:22.301
The Muslim villagers have fled
to the camp in Deressa.

00:45:22.428 --> 00:45:26.058
They fear the reprisals
that'll come.

00:45:26.182 --> 00:45:29.432
Maybe the children are with them.

00:45:30.728 --> 00:45:36.438
Chamseddine and his men killed all
the Christians to avenge the refugees.

00:45:39.195 --> 00:45:43.155
Maybe the children are in Deressa.

00:47:06.324 --> 00:47:08.334
Are you going to Deressa?

00:51:11.444 --> 00:51:14.284
I'm Christian! I'm Christian!

00:51:24.874 --> 00:51:27.544
My daughter! My daughter!

00:53:47.683 --> 00:53:51.693
THE SOUTH

00:55:04.051 --> 00:55:08.431
Hi, Simon. It's me. I'm in mum's
village. I wish you were here.

00:55:08.555 --> 00:55:10.005
Listen.

00:56:08.532 --> 00:56:11.912
I told you never
to come back here!

00:56:15.372 --> 00:56:16.792
Hello.

00:56:17.541 --> 00:56:19.001
Souha?

00:56:22.129 --> 00:56:24.839
Ahmed loves you!
Ahmed loves you!

00:56:30.971 --> 00:56:33.431
I told you to stop saying that!

00:56:35.225 --> 00:56:37.975
Hello. Can I help you?

00:56:42.066 --> 00:56:44.066
Hello.

00:56:44.193 --> 00:56:48.363
Does anyone speak
French or English?

00:56:49.490 --> 00:56:51.320
Where's Samia?

00:57:33.325 --> 00:57:34.735
Thank you.

00:57:50.217 --> 00:57:53.427
- You speak French?
- Yes. Hello.

00:57:53.554 --> 00:57:57.104
Hello. My name is Samia.

00:57:58.600 --> 00:58:01.850
I'm Jeanne Marwan.
Thanks for helping.

00:58:01.979 --> 00:58:05.109
Marwan? There are lots
of Marwans here.

00:58:05.232 --> 00:58:06.822
Really?

00:58:08.318 --> 00:58:10.318
I'm from Canada.

00:58:11.488 --> 00:58:13.278
I'm looking for Souha.

00:58:14.032 --> 00:58:16.032
Souha? That's her.

00:58:16.160 --> 00:58:18.410
She's my great-grandmother.

00:58:27.838 --> 00:58:30.838
The grocer at the corner
gave me your name.

00:58:37.472 --> 00:58:40.472
I'm looking for my father.
His name is Wahab.

00:58:48.317 --> 00:58:50.477
My mother was Nawal Marwan.

00:58:52.404 --> 00:58:54.074
She was born here.

00:59:00.495 --> 00:59:02.035
We don't know her.

00:59:02.164 --> 00:59:04.424
Yes, we know her!

00:59:11.256 --> 00:59:14.626
Her mother is a disgrace!

00:59:28.273 --> 00:59:32.033
The Marwan family
was struck by disgrace.

00:59:32.819 --> 00:59:34.649
The war came.

00:59:40.244 --> 00:59:41.794
I'm looking for Wahab.

00:59:45.791 --> 00:59:47.791
She doesn't know Wahab.

00:59:51.922 --> 00:59:56.182
I can't help you.
I'm sorry, I'm tired.

01:00:05.769 --> 01:00:09.689
If you are the daughter
of Nawal Marwan,

01:00:10.983 --> 01:00:13.903
you are not welcome here.

01:00:14.027 --> 01:00:16.027
Go home.

01:00:19.533 --> 01:00:21.873
You're looking for your father,

01:00:21.994 --> 01:00:24.544
but you don't know
who your mother is.

01:02:58.567 --> 01:03:01.777
I arrived after the massacre
at the Deressa camp.

01:03:03.405 --> 01:03:05.405
Everything was smouldering.

01:03:07.367 --> 01:03:09.827
I searched for my son
among pools of blood.

01:03:11.455 --> 01:03:14.955
I never want to forget
what I saw and heard.

01:03:16.001 --> 01:03:19.001
You say you oppose our enemy.

01:03:19.129 --> 01:03:22.719
That does not make you our friend.

01:03:23.508 --> 01:03:26.338
Why should Chamseddine trust you?

01:03:27.637 --> 01:03:30.137
My son's father was
a Deressa refugee.

01:03:30.265 --> 01:03:32.725
My son was swallowed
by the war.

01:03:33.643 --> 01:03:35.853
I have nothing left to lose.

01:03:37.481 --> 01:03:40.441
I have only hatred
for the Nationalists.

01:03:41.610 --> 01:03:44.780
That's not what you wrote
in Charbel's newspaper.

01:03:45.864 --> 01:03:50.414
My uncle believed that his words
and books would promote peace.

01:03:51.995 --> 01:03:53.945
I believed him.

01:03:56.041 --> 01:03:58.421
Life taught me otherwise.

01:04:00.712 --> 01:04:02.512
What do you want now?

01:04:05.175 --> 01:04:08.755
To teach the enemy
what life has taught me.

01:05:03.024 --> 01:05:04.734
Very good.

01:05:04.859 --> 01:05:07.609
Very good. You just forgot this.

01:05:12.951 --> 01:05:14.991
How's the French?

01:05:16.079 --> 01:05:19.209
I am much gooder, Dad.

01:05:19.332 --> 01:05:22.632
The comparative of "good"
is "better," darling.

01:05:26.256 --> 01:05:29.046
I want my son
to speak several languages.

01:05:29.175 --> 01:05:32.045
So he can understand
without an intermediary.

01:05:57.412 --> 01:06:00.832
- Nawal here.
- How are you, Nawal? This is Nouchine.

01:06:02.083 --> 01:06:05.843
Good evening, Nouchine.
How is your mother?

01:06:05.962 --> 01:06:09.592
My mother is very well.
Tomorrow at 10:00am.

01:06:11.843 --> 01:06:13.643
Tomorrow it is.

01:07:29.796 --> 01:07:32.006
- Hey, lovely.
- Good morning.

01:07:32.924 --> 01:07:35.554
- Will you go out with us Thursday?
- No.

01:07:36.428 --> 01:07:38.468
- Friday?
- No.

01:07:38.596 --> 01:07:40.466
- Saturday?
- No.

01:07:42.642 --> 01:07:44.732
We're patient!

01:07:44.853 --> 01:07:46.603
So am I.

01:07:59.951 --> 01:08:03.081
Don't forget.
"Always" always takes an S.

01:09:05.433 --> 01:09:06.773
Goddamn whore!

01:10:49.329 --> 01:10:53.669
Amnesty International repeatedly
condemned the Kfar Ryat prison.

01:11:03.051 --> 01:11:05.051
This is the women's section.

01:11:06.554 --> 01:11:08.394
The cells are bigger.

01:11:08.514 --> 01:11:10.974
Some prisoners were kept for 1 5 years.

01:11:21.194 --> 01:11:24.364
- When was it built?
- After the massacres.

01:11:24.489 --> 01:11:26.619
Right after war started.

01:11:26.741 --> 01:11:29.161
They jailed 600 political prisoners.

01:11:32.080 --> 01:11:34.500
You can go in. I'll take a picture.

01:11:47.053 --> 01:11:48.893
Do you know her?

01:11:51.391 --> 01:11:53.271
It was taken here.

01:11:54.811 --> 01:11:58.061
I don't know her.
That was a long time ago, so I...

01:11:58.189 --> 01:12:00.609
Do you know anyone who worked here?

01:12:41.024 --> 01:12:50.914
Hello.

01:12:54.120 --> 01:12:56.540
I'm looking for Fahim Harrsa.

01:13:00.835 --> 01:13:02.955
I'm the school janitor.

01:13:04.047 --> 01:13:05.627
Yes, but before?

01:13:05.757 --> 01:13:07.167
Before?

01:13:08.092 --> 01:13:11.052
That was before I was school janitor.

01:13:11.179 --> 01:13:14.469
I've been the school janitor a long time.

01:13:16.559 --> 01:13:18.519
Do you know this woman?

01:13:18.644 --> 01:13:20.654
She was in Kfar Ryat.

01:13:23.399 --> 01:13:25.899
I'm the school janitor. End of story.

01:13:29.614 --> 01:13:32.244
I need someone who knew her,

01:13:32.366 --> 01:13:34.366
who can tell me about her.

01:13:36.746 --> 01:13:38.206
She's my mother.

01:13:41.751 --> 01:13:43.751
She's the Woman who Sings.

01:13:43.878 --> 01:13:45.548
Number 72.

01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:51.430
She shot the leader
of the right-wing Christian militias.

01:13:53.096 --> 01:13:55.256
They made her pay a high price.

01:13:55.389 --> 01:13:57.599
Very high.

01:13:57.725 --> 01:13:59.345
15 years.

01:13:59.477 --> 01:14:02.227
"The Woman who Sings."

01:14:03.689 --> 01:14:05.859
They called her
"The Woman who Sings."

01:14:05.983 --> 01:14:07.823
She sang all the time.

01:14:08.736 --> 01:14:10.486
You're sure it's her?

01:14:12.031 --> 01:14:14.571
I spent 1 3 years watching her.

01:14:16.786 --> 01:14:20.786
Have you ever spent 1 3 years
watching someone?

01:14:24.127 --> 01:14:26.587
They did everything to break her.

01:14:28.464 --> 01:14:32.014
At the end, she still stood tall

01:14:32.135 --> 01:14:34.335
and looked them in the eye.

01:14:36.931 --> 01:14:40.521
Never seen anyone like her.
She wouldn't break.

01:14:41.227 --> 01:14:43.187
They were enraged.

01:14:50.403 --> 01:14:52.613
So they sent Abou Tarek.

01:14:52.738 --> 01:14:54.278
Who's that?

01:15:04.041 --> 01:15:05.501
Abou Tarek.

01:15:07.378 --> 01:15:12.508
You know, sometimes
it's better not to know.

01:15:13.718 --> 01:15:15.758
I live with it anyway.

01:15:16.554 --> 01:15:18.104
Go on.

01:15:19.807 --> 01:15:21.267
Abou Tarek...

01:15:22.268 --> 01:15:25.308
Abou Tarek was a torture specialist.

01:15:26.189 --> 01:15:28.479
He raped her again and again.

01:15:29.275 --> 01:15:34.275
To break her before her release.
So she'd stop singing.

01:15:37.825 --> 01:15:41.615
In the end,
she became pregnant.

01:15:42.914 --> 01:15:46.084
It was like that. I'll never forget.

01:15:46.751 --> 01:15:50.551
72, made pregnant
by Abou Tarek.

01:15:52.798 --> 01:15:56.718
They waited until
she gave birth in prison.

01:15:57.511 --> 01:16:00.101
Then they let her go.

01:16:03.517 --> 01:16:06.437
The baby?
Did you see the baby?

01:16:08.522 --> 01:16:12.532
There was a doctor
who sometimes came.

01:16:12.652 --> 01:16:15.282
I believe he went crazy.

01:16:15.404 --> 01:16:18.374
Others say he has
a restaurant in Tel Aviv.

01:16:20.701 --> 01:16:24.701
That's bullshit.
He went crazy or else he died.

01:16:25.581 --> 01:16:30.591
Now, the nurse... I know her.
She lives in Daresh.

01:16:33.756 --> 01:16:35.166
In Daresh.

01:16:43.891 --> 01:16:48.021
Listen, Simon. I don't give a shit.
Just shut up!

01:16:48.145 --> 01:16:51.765
Mum was in prison.
Simon, mum...

01:16:52.775 --> 01:16:54.435
Mum was raped.

01:16:56.279 --> 01:16:58.279
She had our brother in jail.

01:16:59.907 --> 01:17:01.737
I need you.

01:17:18.884 --> 01:17:22.934
THE WOMAN WHO SINGS

01:20:00.921 --> 01:20:03.091
The contracts of Notary Amyott.

01:20:03.215 --> 01:20:05.965
From 1868-1892.

01:20:06.093 --> 01:20:09.803
His son, Edouard, took over until 1 925.
All handwritten.

01:20:10.931 --> 01:20:13.981
My grandfather, Charles.
My father, Henri.

01:20:14.560 --> 01:20:16.100
And me.

01:20:16.228 --> 01:20:19.108
The end, because I'm the last
of the Lebels.

01:20:20.691 --> 01:20:23.321
I'll show you the will of a man...

01:20:25.946 --> 01:20:27.776
...who led parallel lives.

01:20:30.659 --> 01:20:33.539
Turned out he had three wives.

01:20:33.662 --> 01:20:38.042
Here, in Miami and in Honduras,
where he did business.

01:20:39.001 --> 01:20:44.761
So now, it's not three children
involved, but eight.

01:20:44.882 --> 01:20:46.972
That was fun, believe you me!

01:20:48.385 --> 01:20:49.795
Look.

01:20:52.264 --> 01:20:54.774
Death is never the end of the story.

01:20:54.892 --> 01:20:57.022
It always leaves tracks.

01:20:59.230 --> 01:21:03.270
To find your brother, you have
to retrace your mother's past.

01:21:03.400 --> 01:21:06.950
Jean, I want to find my sister.
That's all.

01:21:07.071 --> 01:21:11.571
I'm on it. I have a few quick things
to wrap up.

01:21:11.700 --> 01:21:14.120
Pack your stuff. We'll leave in...

01:21:14.995 --> 01:21:16.615
My passport!

01:21:16.747 --> 01:21:18.537
We?

01:21:18.666 --> 01:21:20.666
Haven't you done enough?

01:21:20.793 --> 01:21:22.843
Exactly. I can't pull out now.

01:21:25.130 --> 01:21:26.970
Grow up, Simon.

01:21:28.050 --> 01:21:30.050
I know you need me.

01:21:32.137 --> 01:21:34.927
- We find her and come back.
- Promise.

01:21:35.683 --> 01:21:40.313
For a notary, Mr Marwan,
a promise is sacred.

01:24:35.487 --> 01:24:37.907
Now sing.

01:25:45.641 --> 01:25:48.021
That's it. That's it.

01:25:49.812 --> 01:25:53.272
The baby's coming.
I can see its head.

01:25:53.398 --> 01:25:54.568
Push.

01:25:55.484 --> 01:25:58.074
Go on, dear.

01:26:05.202 --> 01:26:07.202
The first one is out.

01:26:27.683 --> 01:26:30.983
Rest a bit now.

01:26:31.854 --> 01:26:33.694
I'm proud of you.

01:26:35.107 --> 01:26:37.317
Get ready for the second.

01:27:06.847 --> 01:27:09.347
Stop. Give.

01:27:10.726 --> 01:27:14.436
- What are you doing?
- You threw them in the river like always.

01:27:15.939 --> 01:27:17.399
- It's dangerous.
- No.

01:27:17.524 --> 01:27:21.534
You did your duty.
You threw them in the river.

01:27:21.653 --> 01:27:26.073
I'll look after them. They're the babies
of the Woman who Sings.

01:27:46.887 --> 01:27:49.717
We are a battlefield for other countries.

01:27:49.848 --> 01:27:53.808
Imagine if there'd been notaries
back in Noah's day.

01:27:53.936 --> 01:27:56.936
We'd only have to look up
the property deeds.

01:27:57.064 --> 01:28:01.194
This is your land. This is your land.
The right of way...

01:28:01.318 --> 01:28:04.068
Done. Everyone's happy.

01:28:04.821 --> 01:28:08.741
- Notaries only began 1 000 years ago.
- That's the problem.

01:28:08.867 --> 01:28:10.907
We should've been there
from day one.

01:28:12.412 --> 01:28:14.412
Thank you again for your help.

01:28:14.539 --> 01:28:16.459
It's my pleasure, dear colleague.

01:28:16.583 --> 01:28:20.293
I have the information you requested by email.

01:28:20.420 --> 01:28:23.460
Simon, my briefcase is right beside you.

01:28:23.590 --> 01:28:26.010
Would you please hand it to Mr Lebel?

01:28:27.219 --> 01:28:31.759
You're very kind, but with the jet lag,
we'll look at it later.

01:28:31.890 --> 01:28:36.730
In brief, for the father it's complicated.
There's no death certificate.

01:28:36.853 --> 01:28:39.733
- For the brother...
- Excuse me, what's this about?

01:28:41.274 --> 01:28:43.154
I asked for help, Simon.

01:28:43.276 --> 01:28:46.026
Mr Maddad agreed, to speed things up.

01:28:47.280 --> 01:28:49.660
I told you, we're here to find Jeanne.

01:28:51.743 --> 01:28:55.083
Your sister's the easiest family member to find.

01:29:02.546 --> 01:29:04.756
I'm so happy you're here.

01:29:04.881 --> 01:29:06.551
Me too.

01:29:14.224 --> 01:29:18.814
The nurse who helped mum deliver in jail...
We can go see her today.

01:29:20.355 --> 01:29:22.685
Jeanne, it's enough.

01:29:24.860 --> 01:29:27.740
Just shut up and come with me.

01:29:27.863 --> 01:29:30.283
It's your job to find our brother.

01:29:30.407 --> 01:29:33.407
If not for her or yourself,
do it for me!

01:29:40.083 --> 01:29:42.083
She's in hospital.

01:29:47.799 --> 01:29:51.799
- I'm glad you're here.
- Me too, dear. Me too.

01:29:53.013 --> 01:29:55.433
If she's sleeping, you'll come back.

01:30:19.664 --> 01:30:21.294
Mrs Maïka?

01:30:53.406 --> 01:30:56.906
Hello, madame.
Thanks for seeing us.

01:30:57.035 --> 01:30:59.325
It's about someone you knew.

01:30:59.454 --> 01:31:01.664
You know Nawal Marwan?

01:31:30.485 --> 01:31:33.195
You were a nurse at Kfar Ryat?

01:31:47.210 --> 01:31:49.460
She says she knew your mother.

01:31:50.463 --> 01:31:53.093
You helped our mother give birth?

01:32:05.645 --> 01:32:09.315
Madame, we're looking
for the child she had in jail.

01:32:09.441 --> 01:32:11.781
Can you help us?

01:32:15.363 --> 01:32:17.743
She worked in Kfar Ryat prison.

01:32:18.658 --> 01:32:20.908
She assisted her during delivery.

01:32:22.954 --> 01:32:25.004
She safeguarded the babies.

01:32:32.130 --> 01:32:35.630
And returned them to
the Woman who Sings upon her release.

01:32:35.759 --> 01:32:39.429
- Sarwan! Janaan!
- Nawal Marwan had twins.

01:36:54.934 --> 01:36:57.064
You really knew the Woman Who Sings?

01:36:58.146 --> 01:37:00.226
You don't know what it means for me.

01:37:01.941 --> 01:37:06.281
Nawal Marwan worked 1 8 years for me.
As my secretary.

01:37:06.404 --> 01:37:09.954
My wife and I were fond of her
and her children.

01:37:10.074 --> 01:37:13.834
But I realize I didn't really
know her after all.

01:37:16.998 --> 01:37:18.868
- Ready?
- Ready.

01:37:34.390 --> 01:37:37.020
At my request,
Mr Maddad did research.

01:37:37.143 --> 01:37:39.603
To find your brother and father.

01:37:45.818 --> 01:37:49.658
For the father, Abou Tarek,
there's no death certificate.

01:37:49.781 --> 01:37:52.621
Many in this country disappeared.

01:37:52.742 --> 01:37:57.082
He may have gone abroad.
That's what his kind often did.

01:37:57.205 --> 01:38:00.165
They're either dead or they left.

01:38:00.291 --> 01:38:03.091
- Wait and see.
- Maybe this is best.

01:38:04.754 --> 01:38:06.674
For the brother...

01:38:06.798 --> 01:38:11.638
Your client, Mrs Nawal Marwan,
is from the village of Der Om.

01:38:12.720 --> 01:38:16.060
She gave the child
to a midwife named Elham,

01:38:16.182 --> 01:38:19.392
who placed him
at the Kfar Khout orphanage

01:38:19.519 --> 01:38:22.399
in May 1 970.

01:38:23.731 --> 01:38:26.281
It was hard to locate the registries.

01:38:26.401 --> 01:38:29.741
Many documents were destroyed
in the war.

01:38:29.862 --> 01:38:33.122
But I finally turned up the registries.

01:38:33.241 --> 01:38:36.871
The Sisters of Charity
collected and donated them

01:38:36.995 --> 01:38:39.035
to the National Archives.

01:38:39.163 --> 01:38:42.003
In May 1 970,

01:38:42.125 --> 01:38:44.875
the midwife of Der Om, Elham,

01:38:45.003 --> 01:38:47.503
gave up a male child for adoption.

01:38:47.630 --> 01:38:51.300
The only boy placed
at the orphanage that month.

01:38:51.426 --> 01:38:55.636
Look, he was registered
under the first name of Nihad.

01:38:57.348 --> 01:38:58.768
The dates match.

01:38:59.851 --> 01:39:01.271
It's him.

01:39:02.895 --> 01:39:05.055
He's your brother. Nihad.

01:39:08.860 --> 01:39:11.280
Kfar Khout orphanage.

01:39:11.404 --> 01:39:15.324
Nihad of May.
That was his name for the records.

01:39:15.450 --> 01:39:17.330
Nihad of the month of May.

01:39:17.452 --> 01:39:20.452
The month of arrival
was a temporary surname.

01:39:21.289 --> 01:39:25.419
There were no adoptions at the time.
The war had started.

01:39:26.127 --> 01:39:28.337
In 1 974 the orphanage
was destroyed.

01:39:30.131 --> 01:39:32.801
We must ask who destroyed
Kfar Khout

01:39:32.925 --> 01:39:36.005
to learn what happened
to the children.

01:39:37.722 --> 01:39:41.812
Between you and me,
given what occurred in the region,

01:39:41.934 --> 01:39:43.564
there's little hope.

01:39:45.438 --> 01:39:47.978
He's probably dead too.

01:39:48.107 --> 01:39:51.397
I didn't say dead.
I said we lost his trace.

01:39:53.404 --> 01:39:57.744
They're both dead.
We open the letters. Finished.

01:39:57.867 --> 01:40:01.497
I won't allow it.
This kind of thing is sacred.

01:40:02.955 --> 01:40:05.415
It would be like a rape.

01:40:05.541 --> 01:40:07.831
Great, it runs in the family.

01:40:10.755 --> 01:40:12.165
Sorry.

01:40:14.717 --> 01:40:19.427
There's one path left,
but it's somewhat radical.

01:40:20.515 --> 01:40:24.885
The warlord who razed
the orphanage is still alive.

01:40:25.019 --> 01:40:28.229
He may know what happened
to Nihad and the others.

01:40:28.356 --> 01:40:30.266
It's been an eternity.

01:40:30.400 --> 01:40:35.450
You must understand,
those years saw a series of reprisals

01:40:35.571 --> 01:40:39.071
that set off each other
with merciless logic.

01:40:39.534 --> 01:40:41.164
Like an equation.

01:40:43.329 --> 01:40:47.289
A warlord is precisely
the kind of man with a long memory.

01:40:47.417 --> 01:40:49.627
He'll remember, believe me.

01:40:51.379 --> 01:40:54.549
Wallat Chamseddine.
That's his name.

01:40:58.886 --> 01:41:03.176
- Where do we find him?
- You don't find him, he finds you.

01:41:06.394 --> 01:41:08.404
We can try something.

01:41:10.565 --> 01:41:12.895
Do you like tea, Mr Marwan?

01:41:17.655 --> 01:41:19.315
It's your turn.

01:41:22.493 --> 01:41:26.043
You'll travel to
the Deressa refugee camp.

01:41:26.164 --> 01:41:27.794
You'll drink tea.

01:41:27.915 --> 01:41:31.415
With whomever invites you.

01:41:31.544 --> 01:41:34.254
You'll tell them you're the son
of the Woman who Sings,

01:41:34.380 --> 01:41:36.970
and that you're looking
for Nihad of May.

01:41:37.091 --> 01:41:39.091
You can't go alone.

01:41:40.470 --> 01:41:43.430
I'll find someone to accompany you.

01:42:05.787 --> 01:42:07.657
Welcome to Deressa.

01:43:16.691 --> 01:43:19.691
- Know where we're going?
- No idea.

01:43:46.178 --> 01:43:50.388
- How are you?
- Look, you're a grown man!

01:43:50.516 --> 01:43:54.226
I finished my engineering degree.

01:43:54.353 --> 01:43:58.153
I can't find work, so I drive a taxi.

01:43:58.274 --> 01:44:00.364
What brings you here?

01:44:00.484 --> 01:44:05.494
I'm with some foreign visitors
who asked me to bring them here.

01:44:07.366 --> 01:44:11.696
- Welcome. Come.
- No, thank you. We're short of time.

01:44:11.829 --> 01:44:13.579
Please, come.

01:44:18.669 --> 01:44:21.089
He's inviting us for tea.

01:44:21.213 --> 01:44:22.513
OK.

01:44:40.900 --> 01:44:43.780
He asked me
why you came to Deressa.

01:44:47.114 --> 01:44:49.284
To find someone, Nihad of May.

01:44:59.293 --> 01:45:01.923
He doesn't know a Nihad of May.

01:45:02.046 --> 01:45:04.836
He asks what your name is.

01:45:12.890 --> 01:45:15.350
My mother's from Der Om
in the South.

01:45:28.572 --> 01:45:30.622
My mother's the Woman who Sings.

01:45:55.975 --> 01:45:57.845
Yeah, it's done.

01:46:03.357 --> 01:46:04.977
Wait for what?

01:46:38.309 --> 01:46:40.389
- Sarwan Marwan?
- Yes.

01:46:40.519 --> 01:46:43.149
We've come to offer our help.

01:46:43.272 --> 01:46:45.112
You'll be back in an hour.

01:46:46.525 --> 01:46:50.775
- Can I tell my sister?
- No, only an hour. That's a promise.

01:46:52.531 --> 01:46:54.701
I'll put on a shirt. One sec.

01:46:57.661 --> 01:47:00.411
- He's calling.
- That's OK.

01:47:01.624 --> 01:47:04.544
Already? Don't worry,
you can go with them.

01:47:04.668 --> 01:47:08.958
In the South, one spark
sets everything off. Alright.

01:48:23.581 --> 01:48:26.961
You helped us.
Now it's our turn to help you.

01:48:28.335 --> 01:48:31.745
You'll leave the country.
It will be simpler.

01:48:31.881 --> 01:48:34.551
We'll find you a home and a job.

01:48:35.384 --> 01:48:38.434
I want you to have a better life.

01:48:40.181 --> 01:48:42.891
We have many contacts in America.

01:48:44.935 --> 01:48:47.095
You must go with your children.

01:48:47.229 --> 01:48:50.439
I know they're alive.
Take them with you.

01:48:53.527 --> 01:48:57.197
Your children will help you, you'll see.

01:49:03.787 --> 01:49:06.497
You can't ask that of me.

01:49:08.709 --> 01:49:11.249
Your children are our children.

01:49:11.378 --> 01:49:13.798
Your family is our family.

01:49:13.923 --> 01:49:15.473
Trust me.

01:49:16.467 --> 01:49:19.797
I will help you.

01:49:19.929 --> 01:49:23.179
I will always be there
for you and your children.

01:50:12.147 --> 01:50:13.817
Hello, Sarwan.

01:50:16.026 --> 01:50:19.896
Forgive the precautions,
but it's for your protection.

01:50:21.782 --> 01:50:24.742
I am called Wallat Chamseddine.

01:50:27.121 --> 01:50:31.251
Tell me, how can I help you,
Sarwan Marwan?

01:50:33.210 --> 01:50:35.420
You knew my mother?

01:50:35.546 --> 01:50:37.836
Let's say she worked for me.

01:50:38.966 --> 01:50:40.966
How can I help you?

01:50:44.805 --> 01:50:47.805
I'm looking for a man
named Nihad of May.

01:50:49.143 --> 01:50:51.353
Why do you want Nihad of May?

01:50:53.314 --> 01:50:56.984
He's my brother.
My mother asked me to find him.

01:50:58.777 --> 01:51:03.317
How can you say that Nihad of May
is the son of Nawal Marwan?

01:51:06.493 --> 01:51:10.123
My brother was placed
at the Kfar Khout orphanage.

01:51:11.665 --> 01:51:14.075
We found the birth records.

01:51:15.544 --> 01:51:19.424
The dates, everything fits.
Nihad of May is my brother.

01:52:02.883 --> 01:52:06.973
My friends and I attacked
the Christians of Kfar Khout,

01:52:08.138 --> 01:52:12.268
to avenge the aggressions
against our brother refugees.

01:52:14.144 --> 01:52:17.234
There was an orphanage
in Kfar Khout.

01:52:18.399 --> 01:52:21.859
I spared the children
and I took them with us.

01:52:22.736 --> 01:52:25.566
Nihad was among them.

01:52:25.697 --> 01:52:30.327
We trained them, prepared them
to fight alongside us.

01:52:31.495 --> 01:52:35.455
Nihad had a gift.
He was special.

01:52:36.500 --> 01:52:39.880
He quickly became
a formidable marksman.

01:52:41.171 --> 01:52:44.721
But...he wanted to find
his mother.

01:52:45.801 --> 01:52:47.801
He searched for months.

01:52:49.513 --> 01:52:52.143
I don't know what he saw or heard.

01:52:53.392 --> 01:52:57.442
He became...crazed with war.

01:52:58.480 --> 01:53:02.320
He came back to see me.
He wanted to be a martyr.

01:53:02.443 --> 01:53:06.703
His mother would see his photo
on every wall in the country.

01:53:08.282 --> 01:53:10.162
But I refused.

01:53:11.410 --> 01:53:14.040
He went back to Daresh.

01:53:14.163 --> 01:53:18.583
He became the most dangerous
sniper in the region.

01:53:18.709 --> 01:53:22.169
A real machine.
He would shoot at anyone.

01:53:23.046 --> 01:53:26.876
And then,
there was the enemy invasion.

01:53:28.260 --> 01:53:32.680
And one morning...
they captured Nihad.

01:53:32.806 --> 01:53:34.886
He'd killed seven soldiers.

01:53:36.768 --> 01:53:39.768
They didn't kill him,
they trained him,

01:53:39.897 --> 01:53:43.147
and they sent him
to the Kfar Ryat prison.

01:53:44.234 --> 01:53:47.244
- He was in prison?
- Yes.

01:53:49.948 --> 01:53:52.118
As a torturer.

01:53:53.076 --> 01:53:54.866
With my father?

01:53:54.995 --> 01:53:59.325
No. He didn't work
with Abou Tarek, your father.

01:54:28.654 --> 01:54:30.244
You OK?

01:54:34.743 --> 01:54:36.833
One plus one...

01:54:36.954 --> 01:54:38.544
makes two.

01:54:39.456 --> 01:54:40.866
What?

01:54:43.961 --> 01:54:46.591
One plus one makes two.

01:54:46.713 --> 01:54:48.513
It can't make one.

01:54:55.013 --> 01:54:56.853
You're feverish.

01:54:59.268 --> 01:55:00.688
Jeanne?

01:55:02.563 --> 01:55:05.313
One plus one...
Can it make one?

01:55:27.170 --> 01:55:30.210
- There's a chair.
- Take it if you want.

01:56:59.012 --> 01:57:00.972
Can I help you, madame?

01:57:10.190 --> 01:57:11.820
I'm sorry.

01:58:21.595 --> 01:58:24.135
When he became a torturer,

01:58:24.264 --> 01:58:26.564
your brother changed names.

01:58:26.683 --> 01:58:29.563
He became...Abou Tarek.

01:58:32.314 --> 01:58:35.614
Nihad of May is Abou Tarek.

01:58:39.613 --> 01:58:44.123
We know he's living in Canada
under a new identity.

01:58:44.242 --> 01:58:46.622
Nihad Harmanni.

01:59:25.784 --> 01:59:27.414
Mr Harmanni?

01:59:30.163 --> 01:59:31.583
Yes.

01:59:38.672 --> 01:59:40.512
This is for you.

02:00:10.871 --> 02:00:12.751
LETTER TO THE FATHER

02:00:25.927 --> 02:00:28.547
I'm shaking as I write.

02:00:28.680 --> 02:00:30.810
I recognized you.

02:00:30.932 --> 02:00:32.732
You didn't recognize me.

02:00:32.851 --> 02:00:34.891
It's magnificent, a miracle.

02:00:35.020 --> 02:00:37.350
I am your number 72.

02:00:38.440 --> 02:00:41.280
Our children will deliver this.

02:00:42.193 --> 02:00:44.403
You won't recognize them,

02:00:44.529 --> 02:00:46.159
for they are beautiful.

02:00:46.281 --> 02:00:48.411
But they know who you are.

02:00:57.000 --> 02:01:00.750
Through them, I want to tell you
that you are still alive.

02:01:01.755 --> 02:01:04.755
Soon you'll turn silent...
I know.

02:01:06.301 --> 02:01:09.051
For all are silent before the truth.

02:01:10.013 --> 02:01:12.973
Signed: Whore 72.

02:01:27.155 --> 02:01:29.485
I speak to the son,

02:01:29.616 --> 02:01:32.076
not to the torturer.

02:01:32.202 --> 02:01:35.832
Whatever happens,
I'll always love you.

02:01:35.956 --> 02:01:39.746
I promised you that
when you were born, my son.

02:01:39.876 --> 02:01:43.246
Whatever happens,
I'll always love you.

02:01:44.255 --> 02:01:46.835
I looked for you all my life.

02:01:46.967 --> 02:01:48.877
I found you.

02:01:49.552 --> 02:01:51.602
You couldn't recognize me.

02:01:53.139 --> 02:01:56.019
You've a tattoo on your right heel.

02:01:56.142 --> 02:01:59.022
I saw it. I recognized you.

02:02:00.063 --> 02:02:02.483
You are beautiful.

02:02:02.607 --> 02:02:05.527
I wrap you in tenderness, my love.

02:02:06.361 --> 02:02:08.571
Take solace,

02:02:08.697 --> 02:02:11.817
for nothing means more
than being together.

02:02:11.950 --> 02:02:14.080
You were born of love.

02:02:14.202 --> 02:02:18.042
So your brother and sister
were born of love, too.

02:02:19.582 --> 02:02:22.082
Nothing means more
than being together.

02:02:23.086 --> 02:02:26.256
Your mother,
Nawal Marwan.

02:02:27.257 --> 02:02:29.427
Prisoner No 72.

02:02:38.143 --> 02:02:41.233
When the envelopes
have been delivered,

02:02:41.354 --> 02:02:44.364
you'll be given a letter,
the silence broken,

02:02:44.482 --> 02:02:46.322
a promise kept,

02:02:46.443 --> 02:02:49.193
and you can place a stone
on my grave,

02:02:49.320 --> 02:02:51.950
and on it
engrave my name in the sun.

02:03:12.469 --> 02:03:14.139
My loves,

02:03:15.305 --> 02:03:18.215
where does your story begin?

02:03:18.349 --> 02:03:20.349
At your birth?

02:03:21.686 --> 02:03:23.686
If so, it begins in horror.

02:03:24.939 --> 02:03:27.149
At the birth of your father?

02:03:28.151 --> 02:03:30.901
Then it begins in a great love story.

02:03:33.114 --> 02:03:36.744
But I say your story
begins with a promise,

02:03:36.868 --> 02:03:39.288
to break the chain of anger.

02:03:41.206 --> 02:03:44.166
Thanks to you,
today I have finally kept it.

02:03:44.292 --> 02:03:46.922
The chain is broken.

02:03:47.045 --> 02:03:50.545
Finally I can take the time
to cradle you,

02:03:50.673 --> 02:03:53.803
to gently sing a lullaby
to console you.

02:03:56.262 --> 02:03:58.562
Nothing means more
than being together.

02:03:59.849 --> 02:04:01.479
I love you.

02:04:02.727 --> 02:04:04.347
Your mother.

02:04:05.396 --> 02:04:06.806
Nawal.

02:10:46.714 --> 02:11:49.724
