1
00:04:31,188 --> 00:04:32,608
Good to see you.

2
00:04:42,407 --> 00:04:43,817
Please...

3
00:04:44,368 --> 00:04:48,618
THE TWINS

4
00:05:11,144 --> 00:05:13,904
Will of Mrs Nawal Marwan.

5
00:05:14,022 --> 00:05:17,022
Opening of the will
before her two children,

6
00:05:17,150 --> 00:05:20,900
Simon Marwan
and Jeanne Marwan.

7
00:05:23,031 --> 00:05:28,161
In conformance with the instructions
and rights of Mrs Nawal Marwan,

8
00:05:29,246 --> 00:05:34,076
Notary Jean Lebel is named
executor of the will.

9
00:05:37,254 --> 00:05:39,264
That was your mother's decision.

10
00:05:40,173 --> 00:05:43,183
I was against it, but she insisted.

11
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:47,259
You know...

12
00:05:48,348 --> 00:05:51,228
your mother was more
than an employee.

13
00:05:51,351 --> 00:05:54,401
My late wife and I
considered you our family.

14
00:05:54,521 --> 00:05:57,901
So... I couldn't refuse.

15
00:06:01,611 --> 00:06:05,701
All my assets are divided between
the twins Jeanne and Simon.

16
00:06:05,824 --> 00:06:07,664
My money will be halved,

17
00:06:07,784 --> 00:06:10,874
and my belongings
divided as they see fit.

18
00:06:12,748 --> 00:06:14,168
Burial.

19
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,460
To Notary Jean Lebel:

20
00:06:17,586 --> 00:06:22,546
bury me with no casket,
no prayers, naked,

21
00:06:22,674 --> 00:06:25,974
face down,
away from the world.

22
00:06:28,930 --> 00:06:30,770
Stone and epitaph.

23
00:06:31,975 --> 00:06:35,765
I want no gravestone,
nor my name engraved anywhere.

24
00:06:35,896 --> 00:06:39,476
No epitaph for those
who don't keep their promises.

25
00:06:41,068 --> 00:06:43,278
To Jeanne and Simon:

26
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:46,743
childhood is a knife
stuck in your throat.

27
00:06:46,865 --> 00:06:49,025
It can't be easily removed.

28
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,080
Jeanne, Mr Lebel will give you
an envelope.

29
00:06:57,876 --> 00:07:00,996
The envelope is for your father.

30
00:07:02,297 --> 00:07:05,257
Find him and give it to him.

31
00:07:09,513 --> 00:07:12,223
Simon, the notary will give you
an envelope...

32
00:07:12,349 --> 00:07:14,389
I've heard enough.

33
00:07:16,103 --> 00:07:18,233
I haven't finished.

34
00:07:21,316 --> 00:07:22,726
Go on.

35
00:07:24,194 --> 00:07:27,074
Simon, the notary will give you
an envelope.

36
00:07:27,197 --> 00:07:29,907
The envelope is for your brother.

37
00:07:31,868 --> 00:07:34,948
Find him and give him
the envelope.

38
00:07:36,373 --> 00:07:39,043
TO THE SON

39
00:07:39,918 --> 00:07:42,878
When the envelopes
have been delivered,

40
00:07:43,004 --> 00:07:44,924
you will be given a letter.

41
00:07:45,799 --> 00:07:48,259
The silence will be broken,

42
00:07:48,385 --> 00:07:50,585
a promise kept,

43
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,390
and you can place a stone
on my grave and on it engrave

44
00:07:54,516 --> 00:07:56,516
my name in the sun.

45
00:08:10,615 --> 00:08:12,865
I admit, it's unusual.

46
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:23,630
- Anything to sign?
- No, not today.

47
00:08:24,671 --> 00:08:26,461
OK.

48
00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:28,130
Thanks, Jean.

49
00:08:28,258 --> 00:08:30,128
- Let's go.
- Wait.

50
00:08:33,346 --> 00:08:35,596
You know about our father.

51
00:08:36,683 --> 00:08:38,773
And that we have no brother.

52
00:08:38,894 --> 00:08:41,234
Why did you let her write that?

53
00:08:43,190 --> 00:08:46,980
I understand your reaction.
It's very surprising.

54
00:08:47,110 --> 00:08:50,860
Don't pretend you buy this.
You knew her. It can't be.

55
00:08:50,989 --> 00:08:54,529
One doesn't invent such things,
not in a will.

56
00:08:56,077 --> 00:08:58,077
There's this, too.

57
00:09:13,845 --> 00:09:17,135
Look, your mother has left us
something rather...

58
00:09:17,933 --> 00:09:20,023
We'll sleep on it and...

59
00:09:21,311 --> 00:09:22,981
We'll be in touch.

60
00:09:23,104 --> 00:09:25,314
I'll wait outside.
Thank you, Jean.

61
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,150
Sit down, Simon.

62
00:09:27,943 --> 00:09:29,533
Look, Jean...

63
00:09:30,612 --> 00:09:33,822
Your secretary liked working for you.

64
00:09:33,949 --> 00:09:36,659
At least she did that right. Bravo.

65
00:09:38,161 --> 00:09:40,291
But your secretary was my mother.

66
00:09:41,248 --> 00:09:43,498
And that job,
a whole other matter...

67
00:09:43,625 --> 00:09:44,665
Simon...

68
00:09:44,793 --> 00:09:47,423
Bury your secretary how you want.

69
00:09:47,545 --> 00:09:49,755
But I'll bury my mother normally.

70
00:09:49,881 --> 00:09:53,471
For once in her life
she'll have acted normally.

71
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,509
End of discussion.

72
00:10:11,444 --> 00:10:15,034
Take your time.
Come back when Simon's calmer.

73
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:22,286
I know it's very unusual, but...

74
00:10:25,917 --> 00:10:28,377
your mother wasn't crazy,
Jeanne.

75
00:10:46,896 --> 00:10:49,146
We're a big family suddenly.

76
00:10:53,903 --> 00:10:56,073
She ever mention a dog?

77
00:10:56,197 --> 00:10:58,737
Big families always have a dog.

78
00:10:58,867 --> 00:11:01,487
Do we have to find it now too?

79
00:11:01,619 --> 00:11:03,619
She's fucking crazy.

80
00:11:09,461 --> 00:11:11,421
I'll talk to Jean.

81
00:11:11,546 --> 00:11:13,206
About what?

82
00:11:13,340 --> 00:11:15,380
Having a normal funeral.

83
00:11:18,386 --> 00:11:21,136
We'll take care of her, then you.

84
00:11:34,652 --> 00:11:36,572
Where you going?

85
00:11:36,696 --> 00:11:39,866
- Bury her any way you want.
- Cut it out.

86
00:11:42,452 --> 00:11:44,662
You weren't there when she died,

87
00:11:44,788 --> 00:11:47,918
you were there when
she had her accident...

88
00:11:48,041 --> 00:11:50,381
You feel guilty about everything!

89
00:11:51,044 --> 00:11:52,964
I don't feel guilty.

90
00:11:53,088 --> 00:11:55,298
Do you realize what we just heard?

91
00:11:55,423 --> 00:11:58,513
She's gone, Christ!
It's over. Peace at last!

92
00:12:03,515 --> 00:12:05,965
I feel so fucking peaceful!

93
00:12:10,980 --> 00:12:12,860
I'm at peace.

94
00:12:15,652 --> 00:12:17,652
I can see that.

95
00:12:21,282 --> 00:12:24,242
The mathematics
you've studied until now

96
00:12:24,369 --> 00:12:28,539
have sought to provide
clear and definitive answers

97
00:12:28,665 --> 00:12:31,995
to clear and definitive problems.

98
00:12:32,127 --> 00:12:35,047
Now you are embarking
on a new adventure.

99
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:37,631
You will face insoluble problems

100
00:12:37,757 --> 00:12:41,927
that will lead to other,
equally insoluble problems.

101
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:48,056
Friends will insist that the object
of your toil is futile.

102
00:12:48,184 --> 00:12:51,524
You'll have no way
of defending yourself,

103
00:12:51,646 --> 00:12:55,516
for the problems will be
of mind-boggling complexity.

104
00:12:56,901 --> 00:13:01,701
Welcome to pure mathematics
and the realm of solitude.

105
00:13:01,823 --> 00:13:06,743
Let me introduce my assistant,
Miss Jeanne Marwan.

106
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:09,249
Hello.

107
00:13:13,042 --> 00:13:15,422
We'll start with
the Collatz conjecture.

108
00:13:18,381 --> 00:13:20,921
What does your intuition tell you?

109
00:13:28,016 --> 00:13:30,556
Your intuition is always right.

110
00:13:30,685 --> 00:13:34,605
That's why you have the makings
of a true mathematician.

111
00:13:34,731 --> 00:13:37,651
But for this,
you're going to need help.

112
00:13:38,776 --> 00:13:40,816
Do you have family there?

113
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,820
- Any contacts?
- It's ridiculous, Niv.

114
00:13:44,949 --> 00:13:48,329
You just learned that
a) your father is alive,

115
00:13:48,453 --> 00:13:51,373
and b) you have another brother.

116
00:13:51,498 --> 00:13:55,538
What's ridiculous is
to challenge the inevitable.

117
00:13:55,668 --> 00:14:00,458
You have to know,
or your mind will never be at peace.

118
00:14:02,759 --> 00:14:06,639
And without peace of mind,
no pure mathematics.

119
00:14:10,016 --> 00:14:12,176
You need a starting point.

120
00:14:18,066 --> 00:14:20,776
My father died during the war,
in Daresh.

121
00:14:20,902 --> 00:14:23,032
That's the unknown variable.

122
00:14:23,154 --> 00:14:25,534
You never start
with the unknown variable.

123
00:14:28,201 --> 00:14:31,201
My mother's from Der Om,
a village in the Fouad.

124
00:14:33,331 --> 00:14:36,581
She studied French
at Daresh University.

125
00:14:36,709 --> 00:14:39,419
If she studied, there's hope.

126
00:14:41,422 --> 00:14:43,012
Saïd Haidar.

127
00:14:44,175 --> 00:14:46,755
You'll pay a visit to Saïd Haidar.

128
00:14:46,886 --> 00:14:51,006
An old friend who teaches in Daresh.
You can trust him.

129
00:17:38,224 --> 00:17:39,934
Mum?

130
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:41,889
Are you alright?

131
00:17:47,275 --> 00:17:48,935
What are you doing?

132
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:51,148
Mum?

133
00:17:51,279 --> 00:17:53,199
Are you OK?

134
00:17:55,742 --> 00:17:58,332
Madame, you're on my towel.

135
00:17:59,746 --> 00:18:28,766
Mum?

136
00:18:30,943 --> 00:18:32,613
What happened?

137
00:18:35,239 --> 00:18:37,069
Where's Jeanne?

138
00:18:39,619 --> 00:18:41,039
Mum?

139
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:56,303
- Does she get migraines?
- No.

140
00:18:56,427 --> 00:18:59,047
- Memory lapses?
- No.

141
00:18:59,180 --> 00:19:02,180
- Incidences of falling?
- No.

142
00:19:02,308 --> 00:19:04,558
Moments of confusion?

143
00:19:04,685 --> 00:19:06,725
She's usually confused.

144
00:19:06,854 --> 00:19:08,734
No, she's never confused.

145
00:20:19,093 --> 00:20:20,893
Wahab, come.

146
00:20:43,868 --> 00:20:45,578
Let go of my sister.

147
00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:50,920
Where are you going,
son of a refugee?

148
00:20:56,213 --> 00:20:58,673
Nicolas, stop!

149
00:20:58,799 --> 00:21:00,589
Go back home!

150
00:21:01,427 --> 00:21:02,927
Wahab!

151
00:21:03,054 --> 00:21:06,014
We'll seek you in your camps
and slaughter you!

152
00:21:06,807 --> 00:21:08,427
Give it!

153
00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:10,309
- I want to.
- It's my duty.

154
00:21:12,313 --> 00:21:15,323
You stained our family's honour.

155
00:21:15,441 --> 00:21:19,651
That's enough!
Come home now!

156
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:21,359
Come home!

157
00:21:28,704 --> 00:21:30,294
Get away!

158
00:21:36,921 --> 00:21:39,091
What have you done?

159
00:21:39,215 --> 00:21:42,465
You've humiliated us,
ruined the family name!

160
00:21:42,593 --> 00:21:47,853
Why, my God, have you
cast us into darkness?

161
00:21:49,100 --> 00:21:52,640
My God, what have you done?
Why did you do this to me?

162
00:21:52,770 --> 00:21:55,810
What am I to do with you?
Should I kill you?

163
00:21:57,608 --> 00:21:59,728
I'm pregnant, Grandma.

164
00:21:59,860 --> 00:22:04,530
My God, blackness everywhere!
Why?

165
00:22:04,657 --> 00:22:09,657
Why did you do this to us?
Am I supposed to kill you?

166
00:22:09,787 --> 00:22:12,457
What am I going to do with you?

167
00:23:31,994 --> 00:23:33,414
Eat.

168
00:23:35,164 --> 00:23:38,174
Eat if you want your child
to be strong.

169
00:23:44,423 --> 00:23:46,173
Listen to me carefully.

170
00:23:47,009 --> 00:23:49,299
There's nothing here for you now.

171
00:23:50,596 --> 00:23:53,386
I'll help you after the birth.

172
00:23:53,516 --> 00:23:55,976
I want you to leave here.

173
00:23:57,311 --> 00:24:01,821
You'll stay with your Uncle Charbel
in town.

174
00:24:01,941 --> 00:24:04,441
You'll go to school there.

175
00:24:04,568 --> 00:24:10,028
You'll learn to read, to think.
To escape this misery.

176
00:24:11,700 --> 00:24:14,240
Promise me and I'll help you.

177
00:24:16,664 --> 00:24:20,254
Promise me that you'll go to school.

178
00:24:26,841 --> 00:24:28,841
I promise you, Grandma.

179
00:24:30,803 --> 00:24:32,643
I promise you.

180
00:27:13,882 --> 00:27:18,142
Take a good look at your mother.
So you'll recognize her.

181
00:27:20,931 --> 00:27:26,691
I'll find you again one day.
I promise you, my love.

182
00:27:37,281 --> 00:27:39,781
- Be careful.
- Don't worry.

183
00:28:13,901 --> 00:28:16,531
Come, it's time you left.

184
00:28:17,738 --> 00:28:21,028
I see terrible times ahead.

185
00:28:37,549 --> 00:28:40,429
One day I'll find you, my son.

186
00:30:16,940 --> 00:30:21,360
I received the message
from my friend Niv Cohen,

187
00:30:21,487 --> 00:30:25,567
but I can't help you,
because, back then,

188
00:30:25,699 --> 00:30:29,789
I was teaching the history
of mathematics at Paris XI.

189
00:30:30,621 --> 00:30:32,461
More precisely,

190
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:37,671
the period when
Leonhard Euler succeeded,

191
00:30:37,794 --> 00:30:42,804
although blind, in first providing
a formal mathematical resolution

192
00:30:42,925 --> 00:30:46,505
to the problem of
the Seven Bridges of Königsberg.

193
00:30:46,637 --> 00:30:50,387
Yes, he defied Diderot
at the Court

194
00:30:50,516 --> 00:30:52,676
by declaring,

195
00:30:52,809 --> 00:30:59,109
"Sir,
e (exponent) pi + 1 = 0.

196
00:31:00,150 --> 00:31:02,070
"Therefore, God exists!"

197
00:31:04,488 --> 00:31:06,568
Niv, Niv, Niv...

198
00:31:20,921 --> 00:31:23,591
Hello. Do you speak French?

199
00:31:23,715 --> 00:31:25,585
Of course. Can I help you?

200
00:31:25,717 --> 00:31:29,047
I'm looking for someone
who might know this woman.

201
00:31:30,138 --> 00:31:33,558
She studied here
about 35 years ago.

202
00:31:34,768 --> 00:31:38,348
You're kidding, right?
I wasn't born. I can't help...

203
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,280
No, I'm not kidding.
You must know someone who can help.

204
00:31:42,401 --> 00:31:46,821
I've travelled too far. Please.
Her name is Nawal Marwan.

205
00:31:56,707 --> 00:31:58,617
You're kind.

206
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:01,090
No, I want to get rid of you.

207
00:32:01,211 --> 00:32:03,461
Najat, it's me.

208
00:32:03,589 --> 00:32:05,459
Got any time to waste?

209
00:32:07,092 --> 00:32:09,262
She looks familiar.

210
00:32:09,386 --> 00:32:13,506
Perhaps she worked
on the student newspaper.

211
00:32:15,058 --> 00:32:16,888
That was long ago.

212
00:32:18,854 --> 00:32:22,614
The people who left
changed their identity.

213
00:32:26,194 --> 00:32:28,454
But it's striking.

214
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:42,880
The photograph of your mother
was taken in Kfar Ryat.

215
00:32:43,587 --> 00:32:45,797
Look here.

216
00:32:45,922 --> 00:32:48,722
It's the sign for Kfar Ryat.

217
00:32:49,718 --> 00:32:52,598
It's a prison in the South.

218
00:32:57,351 --> 00:33:00,481
- You don't know of Kfar Ryat?
- No.

219
00:33:00,604 --> 00:33:03,774
Then you're definitely not from here.

220
00:33:05,150 --> 00:33:07,780
You don't know the South.

221
00:33:39,351 --> 00:33:46,821
If the international community
does not intervene immediately,

222
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:49,990
the refugees...

223
00:33:50,904 --> 00:33:56,124
crammed into camps
along the border...

224
00:33:58,954 --> 00:34:00,374
She's here.

225
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:05,041
We students oppose
the Nationalist Party

226
00:34:05,168 --> 00:34:07,588
and expelling the refugees
in the South.

227
00:34:07,713 --> 00:34:10,593
The Nationalists support
the Christian right,

228
00:34:10,716 --> 00:34:12,756
who openly threaten
the refugees.

229
00:34:12,884 --> 00:34:15,594
The refugees are armed and...

230
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:21,269
and have the support of most
of the Muslims in this country.

231
00:34:21,393 --> 00:34:25,403
But you yourself are Christian.

232
00:34:25,522 --> 00:34:29,022
We stand for peace.
This is not about religion.

233
00:34:39,035 --> 00:34:40,825
Nawal! Nawal!

234
00:34:40,954 --> 00:34:43,084
The radio!
They shut the university!

235
00:34:43,206 --> 00:34:45,956
The Nationalists closed
down the campus!

236
00:35:02,309 --> 00:35:06,769
Nawal, come back!
Stay here!

237
00:35:08,356 --> 00:35:11,276
Uncle Charbel,
they shut the campus!

238
00:35:11,401 --> 00:35:15,361
There will be fighting!

239
00:35:15,489 --> 00:35:18,029
I want you to stay with me!

240
00:35:36,301 --> 00:35:38,301
There's gunfire.

241
00:35:40,347 --> 00:35:43,217
- Girls, come eat!
- Mum, they attacked the university!

242
00:35:43,350 --> 00:35:46,100
That's no reason not to eat!

243
00:36:25,934 --> 00:36:29,444
Christian villages in the South
were attacked.

244
00:36:29,563 --> 00:36:31,313
God help us!

245
00:36:31,439 --> 00:36:33,729
That's why they shut the university.

246
00:36:33,859 --> 00:36:37,279
It won't be long
before it blows up here too.

247
00:36:38,947 --> 00:36:44,077
We'll go to the mountains
until things calm down.

248
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:46,122
For how long?

249
00:36:46,246 --> 00:36:48,036
We go tomorrow.

250
00:36:48,790 --> 00:36:51,130
The rest of the family
is already there.

251
00:36:51,251 --> 00:36:53,341
What about school?

252
00:36:53,461 --> 00:36:58,421
The schools will close anyway.
God only knows until when.

253
00:36:59,175 --> 00:37:01,965
- And the newspaper?
- Don't worry.

254
00:37:03,430 --> 00:37:06,100
The paper can survive
without us for a while.

255
00:37:06,766 --> 00:37:10,136
Ideas only survive
if we're there to defend them.

256
00:37:10,270 --> 00:37:14,440
Exactly, Rafqa. Exactly.

257
00:37:26,202 --> 00:37:30,292
There are two orphanages there.
I'll come later on foot.

258
00:37:31,166 --> 00:37:33,536
You're not going there now.

259
00:37:35,503 --> 00:37:38,463
- You promised Grandma...
- You heard your father.

260
00:37:39,925 --> 00:37:43,215
If they attack the camps,
the country's lost.

261
00:37:43,345 --> 00:37:45,045
School's finished.

262
00:37:49,726 --> 00:37:51,886
I think of him every day.

263
00:37:52,020 --> 00:37:54,150
He's my child.

264
00:37:54,272 --> 00:37:56,272
I want to find him.

265
00:38:16,836 --> 00:38:21,876
- I'm going to Shadia's for water.
- Make it quick, Nawal.

266
00:40:21,586 --> 00:40:23,546
- Name?
- Nawal.

267
00:40:23,671 --> 00:40:25,671
- Nawal what?
- Nawal Marwan.

268
00:40:26,716 --> 00:40:29,376
- Where are you going?
- The South.

269
00:40:29,511 --> 00:40:32,551
- Why?
- To join my husband.

270
00:42:55,031 --> 00:42:56,661
Wahab...

271
00:43:23,059 --> 00:43:25,889
It's always been
a girls' orphanage?

272
00:43:26,020 --> 00:43:28,860
The boys moved
to Kfar Khout 3 years ago.

273
00:43:31,276 --> 00:43:34,736
Come with us. Kfar Khout
was attacked yesterday.

274
00:45:04,660 --> 00:45:08,160
I'm looking for the orphanage.
Do you know where it is?

275
00:45:08,289 --> 00:45:10,329
There.

276
00:45:10,458 --> 00:45:14,038
The children!
Where are the children?

277
00:45:14,170 --> 00:45:17,010
Ask someone who was there.

278
00:45:17,131 --> 00:45:22,301
The Muslim villagers have fled
to the camp in Deressa.

279
00:45:22,428 --> 00:45:26,058
They fear the reprisals
that'll come.

280
00:45:26,182 --> 00:45:29,432
Maybe the children are with them.

281
00:45:30,728 --> 00:45:36,438
Chamseddine and his men killed all
the Christians to avenge the refugees.

282
00:45:39,195 --> 00:45:43,155
Maybe the children are in Deressa.

283
00:47:06,324 --> 00:47:08,334
Are you going to Deressa?

284
00:51:11,444 --> 00:51:14,284
I'm Christian! I'm Christian!

285
00:51:24,874 --> 00:51:27,544
My daughter! My daughter!

286
00:53:47,683 --> 00:53:51,693
THE SOUTH

287
00:55:04,051 --> 00:55:08,431
Hi, Simon. It's me. I'm in mum's
village. I wish you were here.

288
00:55:08,555 --> 00:55:10,005
Listen.

289
00:56:08,532 --> 00:56:11,912
I told you never
to come back here!

290
00:56:15,372 --> 00:56:16,792
Hello.

291
00:56:17,541 --> 00:56:19,001
Souha?

292
00:56:22,129 --> 00:56:24,839
Ahmed loves you!
Ahmed loves you!

293
00:56:30,971 --> 00:56:33,431
I told you to stop saying that!

294
00:56:35,225 --> 00:56:37,975
Hello. Can I help you?

295
00:56:42,066 --> 00:56:44,066
Hello.

296
00:56:44,193 --> 00:56:48,363
Does anyone speak
French or English?

297
00:56:49,490 --> 00:56:51,320
Where's Samia?

298
00:57:33,325 --> 00:57:34,735
Thank you.

299
00:57:50,217 --> 00:57:53,427
- You speak French?
- Yes. Hello.

300
00:57:53,554 --> 00:57:57,104
Hello. My name is Samia.

301
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,850
I'm Jeanne Marwan.
Thanks for helping.

302
00:58:01,979 --> 00:58:05,109
Marwan? There are lots
of Marwans here.

303
00:58:05,232 --> 00:58:06,822
Really?

304
00:58:08,318 --> 00:58:10,318
I'm from Canada.

305
00:58:11,488 --> 00:58:13,278
I'm looking for Souha.

306
00:58:14,032 --> 00:58:16,032
Souha? That's her.

307
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:18,410
She's my great-grandmother.

308
00:58:27,838 --> 00:58:30,838
The grocer at the corner
gave me your name.

309
00:58:37,472 --> 00:58:40,472
I'm looking for my father.
His name is Wahab.

310
00:58:48,317 --> 00:58:50,477
My mother was Nawal Marwan.

311
00:58:52,404 --> 00:58:54,074
She was born here.

312
00:59:00,495 --> 00:59:02,035
We don't know her.

313
00:59:02,164 --> 00:59:04,424
Yes, we know her!

314
00:59:11,256 --> 00:59:14,626
Her mother is a disgrace!

315
00:59:28,273 --> 00:59:32,033
The Marwan family
was struck by disgrace.

316
00:59:32,819 --> 00:59:34,649
The war came.

317
00:59:40,244 --> 00:59:41,794
I'm looking for Wahab.

318
00:59:45,791 --> 00:59:47,791
She doesn't know Wahab.

319
00:59:51,922 --> 00:59:56,182
I can't help you.
I'm sorry, I'm tired.

320
01:00:05,769 --> 01:00:09,689
If you are the daughter
of Nawal Marwan,

321
01:00:10,983 --> 01:00:13,903
you are not welcome here.

322
01:00:14,027 --> 01:00:16,027
Go home.

323
01:00:19,533 --> 01:00:21,873
You're looking for your father,

324
01:00:21,994 --> 01:00:24,544
but you don't know
who your mother is.

325
01:02:58,567 --> 01:03:01,777
I arrived after the massacre
at the Deressa camp.

326
01:03:03,405 --> 01:03:05,405
Everything was smouldering.

327
01:03:07,367 --> 01:03:09,827
I searched for my son
among pools of blood.

328
01:03:11,455 --> 01:03:14,955
I never want to forget
what I saw and heard.

329
01:03:16,001 --> 01:03:19,001
You say you oppose our enemy.

330
01:03:19,129 --> 01:03:22,719
That does not make you our friend.

331
01:03:23,508 --> 01:03:26,338
Why should Chamseddine trust you?

332
01:03:27,637 --> 01:03:30,137
My son's father was
a Deressa refugee.

333
01:03:30,265 --> 01:03:32,725
My son was swallowed
by the war.

334
01:03:33,643 --> 01:03:35,853
I have nothing left to lose.

335
01:03:37,481 --> 01:03:40,441
I have only hatred
for the Nationalists.

336
01:03:41,610 --> 01:03:44,780
That's not what you wrote
in Charbel's newspaper.

337
01:03:45,864 --> 01:03:50,414
My uncle believed that his words
and books would promote peace.

338
01:03:51,995 --> 01:03:53,945
I believed him.

339
01:03:56,041 --> 01:03:58,421
Life taught me otherwise.

340
01:04:00,712 --> 01:04:02,512
What do you want now?

341
01:04:05,175 --> 01:04:08,755
To teach the enemy
what life has taught me.

342
01:05:03,024 --> 01:05:04,734
Very good.

343
01:05:04,859 --> 01:05:07,609
Very good. You just forgot this.

344
01:05:12,951 --> 01:05:14,991
How's the French?

345
01:05:16,079 --> 01:05:19,209
I am much gooder, Dad.

346
01:05:19,332 --> 01:05:22,632
The comparative of "good"
is "better," darling.

347
01:05:26,256 --> 01:05:29,046
I want my son
to speak several languages.

348
01:05:29,175 --> 01:05:32,045
So he can understand
without an intermediary.

349
01:05:57,412 --> 01:06:00,832
- Nawal here.
- How are you, Nawal? This is Nouchine.

350
01:06:02,083 --> 01:06:05,843
Good evening, Nouchine.
How is your mother?

351
01:06:05,962 --> 01:06:09,592
My mother is very well.
Tomorrow at 10:00am.

352
01:06:11,843 --> 01:06:13,643
Tomorrow it is.

353
01:07:29,796 --> 01:07:32,006
- Hey, lovely.
- Good morning.

354
01:07:32,924 --> 01:07:35,554
- Will you go out with us Thursday?
- No.

355
01:07:36,428 --> 01:07:38,468
- Friday?
- No.

356
01:07:38,596 --> 01:07:40,466
- Saturday?
- No.

357
01:07:42,642 --> 01:07:44,732
We're patient!

358
01:07:44,853 --> 01:07:46,603
So am I.

359
01:07:59,951 --> 01:08:03,081
Don't forget.
"Always" always takes an S.

360
01:09:05,433 --> 01:09:06,773
Goddamn whore!

361
01:10:49,329 --> 01:10:53,669
Amnesty International repeatedly
condemned the Kfar Ryat prison.

362
01:11:03,051 --> 01:11:05,051
This is the women's section.

363
01:11:06,554 --> 01:11:08,394
The cells are bigger.

364
01:11:08,514 --> 01:11:10,974
Some prisoners were kept for 15 years.

365
01:11:21,194 --> 01:11:24,364
- When was it built?
- After the massacres.

366
01:11:24,489 --> 01:11:26,619
Right after war started.

367
01:11:26,741 --> 01:11:29,161
They jailed 600 political prisoners.

368
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,500
You can go in. I'll take a picture.

369
01:11:47,053 --> 01:11:48,893
Do you know her?

370
01:11:51,391 --> 01:11:53,271
It was taken here.

371
01:11:54,811 --> 01:11:58,061
I don't know her.
That was a long time ago, so I...

372
01:11:58,189 --> 01:12:00,609
Do you know anyone who worked here?

373
01:12:41,024 --> 01:12:50,914
Hello.

374
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:56,540
I'm looking for Fahim Harrsa.

375
01:13:00,835 --> 01:13:02,955
I'm the school janitor.

376
01:13:04,047 --> 01:13:05,627
Yes, but before?

377
01:13:05,757 --> 01:13:07,167
Before?

378
01:13:08,092 --> 01:13:11,052
That was before I was school janitor.

379
01:13:11,179 --> 01:13:14,469
I've been the school janitor a long time.

380
01:13:16,559 --> 01:13:18,519
Do you know this woman?

381
01:13:18,644 --> 01:13:20,654
She was in Kfar Ryat.

382
01:13:23,399 --> 01:13:25,899
I'm the school janitor. End of story.

383
01:13:29,614 --> 01:13:32,244
I need someone who knew her,

384
01:13:32,366 --> 01:13:34,366
who can tell me about her.

385
01:13:36,746 --> 01:13:38,206
She's my mother.

386
01:13:41,751 --> 01:13:43,751
She's the Woman who Sings.

387
01:13:43,878 --> 01:13:45,548
Number 72.

388
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:51,430
She shot the leader
of the right-wing Christian militias.

389
01:13:53,096 --> 01:13:55,256
They made her pay a high price.

390
01:13:55,389 --> 01:13:57,599
Very high.

391
01:13:57,725 --> 01:13:59,345
15 years.

392
01:13:59,477 --> 01:14:02,227
"The Woman who Sings."

393
01:14:03,689 --> 01:14:05,859
They called her
"The Woman who Sings."

394
01:14:05,983 --> 01:14:07,823
She sang all the time.

395
01:14:08,736 --> 01:14:10,486
You're sure it's her?

396
01:14:12,031 --> 01:14:14,571
I spent 13 years watching her.

397
01:14:16,786 --> 01:14:20,786
Have you ever spent 13 years
watching someone?

398
01:14:24,127 --> 01:14:26,587
They did everything to break her.

399
01:14:28,464 --> 01:14:32,014
At the end, she still stood tall

400
01:14:32,135 --> 01:14:34,335
and looked them in the eye.

401
01:14:36,931 --> 01:14:40,521
Never seen anyone like her.
She wouldn't break.

402
01:14:41,227 --> 01:14:43,187
They were enraged.

403
01:14:50,403 --> 01:14:52,613
So they sent Abou Tarek.

404
01:14:52,738 --> 01:14:54,278
Who's that?

405
01:15:04,041 --> 01:15:05,501
Abou Tarek.

406
01:15:07,378 --> 01:15:12,508
You know, sometimes
it's better not to know.

407
01:15:13,718 --> 01:15:15,758
I live with it anyway.

408
01:15:16,554 --> 01:15:18,104
Go on.

409
01:15:19,807 --> 01:15:21,267
Abou Tarek...

410
01:15:22,268 --> 01:15:25,308
Abou Tarek was a torture specialist.

411
01:15:26,189 --> 01:15:28,479
He raped her again and again.

412
01:15:29,275 --> 01:15:34,275
To break her before her release.
So she'd stop singing.

413
01:15:37,825 --> 01:15:41,615
In the end,
she became pregnant.

414
01:15:42,914 --> 01:15:46,084
It was like that. I'll never forget.

415
01:15:46,751 --> 01:15:50,551
72, made pregnant
by Abou Tarek.

416
01:15:52,798 --> 01:15:56,718
They waited until
she gave birth in prison.

417
01:15:57,511 --> 01:16:00,101
Then they let her go.

418
01:16:03,517 --> 01:16:06,437
The baby?
Did you see the baby?

419
01:16:08,522 --> 01:16:12,532
There was a doctor
who sometimes came.

420
01:16:12,652 --> 01:16:15,282
I believe he went crazy.

421
01:16:15,404 --> 01:16:18,374
Others say he has
a restaurant in Tel Aviv.

422
01:16:20,701 --> 01:16:24,701
That's bullshit.
He went crazy or else he died.

423
01:16:25,581 --> 01:16:30,591
Now, the nurse... I know her.
She lives in Daresh.

424
01:16:33,756 --> 01:16:35,166
In Daresh.

425
01:16:43,891 --> 01:16:48,021
Listen, Simon. I don't give a shit.
Just shut up!

426
01:16:48,145 --> 01:16:51,765
Mum was in prison.
Simon, mum...

427
01:16:52,775 --> 01:16:54,435
Mum was raped.

428
01:16:56,279 --> 01:16:58,279
She had our brother in jail.

429
01:16:59,907 --> 01:17:01,737
I need you.

430
01:17:18,884 --> 01:17:22,934
THE WOMAN WHO SINGS

431
01:20:00,921 --> 01:20:03,091
The contracts of Notary Amyott.

432
01:20:03,215 --> 01:20:05,965
From 1868-1892.

433
01:20:06,093 --> 01:20:09,803
His son, Edouard, took over until 1925.
All handwritten.

434
01:20:10,931 --> 01:20:13,981
My grandfather, Charles.
My father, Henri.

435
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,100
And me.

436
01:20:16,228 --> 01:20:19,108
The end, because I'm the last
of the Lebels.

437
01:20:20,691 --> 01:20:23,321
I'll show you the will of a man...

438
01:20:25,946 --> 01:20:27,776
who led parallel lives.

439
01:20:30,659 --> 01:20:33,539
Turned out he had three wives.

440
01:20:33,662 --> 01:20:38,042
Here, in Miami and in Honduras,
where he did business.

441
01:20:39,001 --> 01:20:44,761
So now, it's not three children
involved, but eight.

442
01:20:44,882 --> 01:20:46,972
That was fun, believe you me!

443
01:20:48,385 --> 01:20:49,795
Look.

444
01:20:52,264 --> 01:20:54,774
Death is never the end of the story.

445
01:20:54,892 --> 01:20:57,022
It always leaves tracks.

446
01:20:59,230 --> 01:21:03,270
To find your brother, you have
to retrace your mother's past.

447
01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,950
Jean, I want to find my sister.
That's all.

448
01:21:07,071 --> 01:21:11,571
I'm on it. I have a few quick things
to wrap up.

449
01:21:11,700 --> 01:21:14,120
Pack your stuff. We'll leave in...

450
01:21:14,995 --> 01:21:16,615
My passport!

451
01:21:16,747 --> 01:21:18,537
We?

452
01:21:18,666 --> 01:21:20,666
Haven't you done enough?

453
01:21:20,793 --> 01:21:22,843
Exactly. I can't pull out now.

454
01:21:25,130 --> 01:21:26,970
Grow up, Simon.

455
01:21:28,050 --> 01:21:30,050
I know you need me.

456
01:21:32,137 --> 01:21:34,927
- We find her and come back.
- Promise.

457
01:21:35,683 --> 01:21:40,313
For a notary, Mr Marwan,
a promise is sacred.

458
01:24:35,487 --> 01:24:37,907
Now sing.

459
01:25:45,641 --> 01:25:48,021
That's it. That's it.

460
01:25:49,812 --> 01:25:53,272
The baby's coming.
I can see its head.

461
01:25:53,398 --> 01:25:54,568
Push.

462
01:25:55,484 --> 01:25:58,074
Go on, dear.

463
01:26:05,202 --> 01:26:07,202
The first one is out.

464
01:26:27,683 --> 01:26:30,983
Rest a bit now.

465
01:26:31,854 --> 01:26:33,694
I'm proud of you.

466
01:26:35,107 --> 01:26:37,317
Get ready for the second.

467
01:27:06,847 --> 01:27:09,347
Stop. Give.

468
01:27:10,726 --> 01:27:14,436
- What are you doing?
- You threw them in the river like always.

469
01:27:15,939 --> 01:27:17,399
- It's dangerous.
- No.

470
01:27:17,524 --> 01:27:21,534
You did your duty.
You threw them in the river.

471
01:27:21,653 --> 01:27:26,073
I'll look after them. They're the babies
of the Woman who Sings.

472
01:27:46,887 --> 01:27:49,717
We are a battlefield for other countries.

473
01:27:49,848 --> 01:27:53,808
Imagine if there'd been notaries
back in Noah's day.

474
01:27:53,936 --> 01:27:56,936
We'd only have to look up
the property deeds.

475
01:27:57,064 --> 01:28:01,194
This is your land. This is your land.
The right of way...

476
01:28:01,318 --> 01:28:04,068
Done. Everyone's happy.

477
01:28:04,821 --> 01:28:08,741
- Notaries only began 1000 years ago.
- That's the problem.

478
01:28:08,867 --> 01:28:10,907
We should've been there
from day one.

479
01:28:12,412 --> 01:28:14,412
Thank you again for your help.

480
01:28:14,539 --> 01:28:16,459
It's my pleasure, dear colleague.

481
01:28:16,583 --> 01:28:20,293
I have the information you requested by email.

482
01:28:20,420 --> 01:28:23,460
Simon, my briefcase is right beside you.

483
01:28:23,590 --> 01:28:26,010
Would you please hand it to Mr Lebel?

484
01:28:27,219 --> 01:28:31,759
You're very kind, but with the jet lag,
we'll look at it later.

485
01:28:31,890 --> 01:28:36,730
In brief, for the father it's complicated.
There's no death certificate.

486
01:28:36,853 --> 01:28:39,733
- For the brother...
- Excuse me, what's this about?

487
01:28:41,274 --> 01:28:43,154
I asked for help, Simon.

488
01:28:43,276 --> 01:28:46,026
Mr Maddad agreed, to speed things up.

489
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:49,660
I told you, we're here to find Jeanne.

490
01:28:51,743 --> 01:28:55,083
Your sister's the easiest family member to find.

491
01:29:02,546 --> 01:29:04,756
I'm so happy you're here.

492
01:29:04,881 --> 01:29:06,551
Me too.

493
01:29:14,224 --> 01:29:18,814
The nurse who helped mum deliver in jail...
We can go see her today.

494
01:29:20,355 --> 01:29:22,685
Jeanne, it's enough.

495
01:29:24,860 --> 01:29:27,740
Just shut up and come with me.

496
01:29:27,863 --> 01:29:30,283
It's your job to find our brother.

497
01:29:30,407 --> 01:29:33,407
If not for her or yourself,
do it for me!

498
01:29:40,083 --> 01:29:42,083
She's in hospital.

499
01:29:47,799 --> 01:29:51,799
- I'm glad you're here.
- Me too, dear. Me too.

500
01:29:53,013 --> 01:29:55,433
If she's sleeping, you'll come back.

501
01:30:19,664 --> 01:30:21,294
Mrs Maïka?

502
01:30:53,406 --> 01:30:56,906
Hello, madame.
Thanks for seeing us.

503
01:30:57,035 --> 01:30:59,325
It's about someone you knew.

504
01:30:59,454 --> 01:31:01,664
You know Nawal Marwan?

505
01:31:30,485 --> 01:31:33,195
You were a nurse at Kfar Ryat?

506
01:31:47,210 --> 01:31:49,460
She says she knew your mother.

507
01:31:50,463 --> 01:31:53,093
You helped our mother give birth?

508
01:32:05,645 --> 01:32:09,315
Madame, we're looking
for the child she had in jail.

509
01:32:09,441 --> 01:32:11,781
Can you help us?

510
01:32:15,363 --> 01:32:17,743
She worked in Kfar Ryat prison.

511
01:32:18,658 --> 01:32:20,908
She assisted her during delivery.

512
01:32:22,954 --> 01:32:25,004
She safeguarded the babies.

513
01:32:32,130 --> 01:32:35,630
And returned them to
the Woman who Sings upon her release.

514
01:32:35,759 --> 01:32:39,429
- Sarwan! Janaan!
- Nawal Marwan had twins.

515
01:36:54,934 --> 01:36:57,064
You really knew the Woman Who Sings?

516
01:36:58,146 --> 01:37:00,226
You don't know what it means for me.

517
01:37:01,941 --> 01:37:06,281
Nawal Marwan worked 18 years for me.
As my secretary.

518
01:37:06,404 --> 01:37:09,954
My wife and I were fond of her
and her children.

519
01:37:10,074 --> 01:37:13,834
But I realize I didn't really
know her after all.

520
01:37:16,998 --> 01:37:18,868
- Ready?
- Ready.

521
01:37:34,390 --> 01:37:37,020
At my request,
Mr Maddad did research.

522
01:37:37,143 --> 01:37:39,603
To find your brother and father.

523
01:37:45,818 --> 01:37:49,658
For the father, Abou Tarek,
there's no death certificate.

524
01:37:49,781 --> 01:37:52,621
Many in this country disappeared.

525
01:37:52,742 --> 01:37:57,082
He may have gone abroad.
That's what his kind often did.

526
01:37:57,205 --> 01:38:00,165
They're either dead or they left.

527
01:38:00,291 --> 01:38:03,091
- Wait and see.
- Maybe this is best.

528
01:38:04,754 --> 01:38:06,674
For the brother...

529
01:38:06,798 --> 01:38:11,638
Your client, Mrs Nawal Marwan,
is from the village of Der Om.

530
01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:16,060
She gave the child
to a midwife named Elham,

531
01:38:16,182 --> 01:38:19,392
who placed him
at the Kfar Khout orphanage

532
01:38:19,519 --> 01:38:22,399
in May 1970.

533
01:38:23,731 --> 01:38:26,281
It was hard to locate the registries.

534
01:38:26,401 --> 01:38:29,741
Many documents were destroyed
in the war.

535
01:38:29,862 --> 01:38:33,122
But I finally turned up the registries.

536
01:38:33,241 --> 01:38:36,871
The Sisters of Charity
collected and donated them

537
01:38:36,995 --> 01:38:39,035
to the National Archives.

538
01:38:39,163 --> 01:38:42,003
In May 1970,

539
01:38:42,125 --> 01:38:44,875
the midwife of Der Om, Elham,

540
01:38:45,003 --> 01:38:47,503
gave up a male child for adoption.

541
01:38:47,630 --> 01:38:51,300
The only boy placed
at the orphanage that month.

542
01:38:51,426 --> 01:38:55,636
Look, he was registered
under the first name of Nihad.

543
01:38:57,348 --> 01:38:58,768
The dates match.

544
01:38:59,851 --> 01:39:01,271
It's him.

545
01:39:02,895 --> 01:39:05,055
He's your brother. Nihad.

546
01:39:08,860 --> 01:39:11,280
Kfar Khout orphanage.

547
01:39:11,404 --> 01:39:15,324
Nihad of May.
That was his name for the records.

548
01:39:15,450 --> 01:39:17,330
Nihad of the month of May.

549
01:39:17,452 --> 01:39:20,452
The month of arrival
was a temporary surname.

550
01:39:21,289 --> 01:39:25,419
There were no adoptions at the time.
The war had started.

551
01:39:26,127 --> 01:39:28,337
In 1974 the orphanage
was destroyed.

552
01:39:30,131 --> 01:39:32,801
We must ask who destroyed
Kfar Khout

553
01:39:32,925 --> 01:39:36,005
to learn what happened
to the children.

554
01:39:37,722 --> 01:39:41,812
Between you and me,
given what occurred in the region,

555
01:39:41,934 --> 01:39:43,564
there's little hope.

556
01:39:45,438 --> 01:39:47,978
He's probably dead too.

557
01:39:48,107 --> 01:39:51,397
I didn't say dead.
I said we lost his trace.

558
01:39:53,404 --> 01:39:57,744
They're both dead.
We open the letters. Finished.

559
01:39:57,867 --> 01:40:01,497
I won't allow it.
This kind of thing is sacred.

560
01:40:02,955 --> 01:40:05,415
It would be like a rape.

561
01:40:05,541 --> 01:40:07,831
Great, it runs in the family.

562
01:40:10,755 --> 01:40:12,165
Sorry.

563
01:40:14,717 --> 01:40:19,427
There's one path left,
but it's somewhat radical.

564
01:40:20,515 --> 01:40:24,885
The warlord who razed
the orphanage is still alive.

565
01:40:25,019 --> 01:40:28,229
He may know what happened
to Nihad and the others.

566
01:40:28,356 --> 01:40:30,266
It's been an eternity.

567
01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:35,450
You must understand,
those years saw a series of reprisals

568
01:40:35,571 --> 01:40:39,071
that set off each other
with merciless logic.

569
01:40:39,534 --> 01:40:41,164
Like an equation.

570
01:40:43,329 --> 01:40:47,289
A warlord is precisely
the kind of man with a long memory.

571
01:40:47,417 --> 01:40:49,627
He'll remember, believe me.

572
01:40:51,379 --> 01:40:54,549
Wallat Chamseddine.
That's his name.

573
01:40:58,886 --> 01:41:03,176
- Where do we find him?
- You don't find him, he finds you.

574
01:41:06,394 --> 01:41:08,404
We can try something.

575
01:41:10,565 --> 01:41:12,895
Do you like tea, Mr Marwan?

576
01:41:17,655 --> 01:41:19,315
It's your turn.

577
01:41:22,493 --> 01:41:26,043
You'll travel to
the Deressa refugee camp.

578
01:41:26,164 --> 01:41:27,794
You'll drink tea.

579
01:41:27,915 --> 01:41:31,415
With whomever invites you.

580
01:41:31,544 --> 01:41:34,254
You'll tell them you're the son
of the Woman who Sings,

581
01:41:34,380 --> 01:41:36,970
and that you're looking
for Nihad of May.

582
01:41:37,091 --> 01:41:39,091
You can't go alone.

583
01:41:40,470 --> 01:41:43,430
I'll find someone to accompany you.

584
01:42:05,787 --> 01:42:07,657
Welcome to Deressa.

585
01:43:16,691 --> 01:43:19,691
- Know where we're going?
- No idea.

586
01:43:46,178 --> 01:43:50,388
- How are you?
- Look, you're a grown man!

587
01:43:50,516 --> 01:43:54,226
I finished my engineering degree.

588
01:43:54,353 --> 01:43:58,153
I can't find work, so I drive a taxi.

589
01:43:58,274 --> 01:44:00,364
What brings you here?

590
01:44:00,484 --> 01:44:05,494
I'm with some foreign visitors
who asked me to bring them here.

591
01:44:07,366 --> 01:44:11,696
- Welcome. Come.
- No, thank you. We're short of time.

592
01:44:11,829 --> 01:44:13,579
Please, come.

593
01:44:18,669 --> 01:44:21,089
He's inviting us for tea.

594
01:44:21,213 --> 01:44:22,513
OK.

595
01:44:40,900 --> 01:44:43,780
He asked me
why you came to Deressa.

596
01:44:47,114 --> 01:44:49,284
To find someone, Nihad of May.

597
01:44:59,293 --> 01:45:01,923
He doesn't know a Nihad of May.

598
01:45:02,046 --> 01:45:04,836
He asks what your name is.

599
01:45:12,890 --> 01:45:15,350
My mother's from Der Om
in the South.

600
01:45:28,572 --> 01:45:30,622
My mother's the Woman who Sings.

601
01:45:55,975 --> 01:45:57,845
Yeah, it's done.

602
01:46:03,357 --> 01:46:04,977
Wait for what?

603
01:46:38,309 --> 01:46:40,389
- Sarwan Marwan?
- Yes.

604
01:46:40,519 --> 01:46:43,149
We've come to offer our help.

605
01:46:43,272 --> 01:46:45,112
You'll be back in an hour.

606
01:46:46,525 --> 01:46:50,775
- Can I tell my sister?
- No, only an hour. That's a promise.

607
01:46:52,531 --> 01:46:54,701
I'll put on a shirt. One sec.

608
01:46:57,661 --> 01:47:00,411
- He's calling.
- That's OK.

609
01:47:01,624 --> 01:47:04,544
Already? Don't worry,
you can go with them.

610
01:47:04,668 --> 01:47:08,958
In the South, one spark
sets everything off. Alright.

611
01:48:23,581 --> 01:48:26,961
You helped us.
Now it's our turn to help you.

612
01:48:28,335 --> 01:48:31,745
You'll leave the country.
It will be simpler.

613
01:48:31,881 --> 01:48:34,551
We'll find you a home and a job.

614
01:48:35,384 --> 01:48:38,434
I want you to have a better life.

615
01:48:40,181 --> 01:48:42,891
We have many contacts in America.

616
01:48:44,935 --> 01:48:47,095
You must go with your children.

617
01:48:47,229 --> 01:48:50,439
I know they're alive.
Take them with you.

618
01:48:53,527 --> 01:48:57,197
Your children will help you, you'll see.

619
01:49:03,787 --> 01:49:06,497
You can't ask that of me.

620
01:49:08,709 --> 01:49:11,249
Your children are our children.

621
01:49:11,378 --> 01:49:13,798
Your family is our family.

622
01:49:13,923 --> 01:49:15,473
Trust me.

623
01:49:16,467 --> 01:49:19,797
I will help you.

624
01:49:19,929 --> 01:49:23,179
I will always be there
for you and your children.

625
01:50:12,147 --> 01:50:13,817
Hello, Sarwan.

626
01:50:16,026 --> 01:50:19,896
Forgive the precautions,
but it's for your protection.

627
01:50:21,782 --> 01:50:24,742
I am called Wallat Chamseddine.

628
01:50:27,121 --> 01:50:31,251
Tell me, how can I help you,
Sarwan Marwan?

629
01:50:33,210 --> 01:50:35,420
You knew my mother?

630
01:50:35,546 --> 01:50:37,836
Let's say she worked for me.

631
01:50:38,966 --> 01:50:40,966
How can I help you?

632
01:50:44,805 --> 01:50:47,805
I'm looking for a man
named Nihad of May.

633
01:50:49,143 --> 01:50:51,353
Why do you want Nihad of May?

634
01:50:53,314 --> 01:50:56,984
He's my brother.
My mother asked me to find him.

635
01:50:58,777 --> 01:51:03,317
How can you say that Nihad of May
is the son of Nawal Marwan?

636
01:51:06,493 --> 01:51:10,123
My brother was placed
at the Kfar Khout orphanage.

637
01:51:11,665 --> 01:51:14,075
We found the birth records.

638
01:51:15,544 --> 01:51:19,424
The dates, everything fits.
Nihad of May is my brother.

639
01:52:02,883 --> 01:52:06,973
My friends and I attacked
the Christians of Kfar Khout,

640
01:52:08,138 --> 01:52:12,268
to avenge the aggressions
against our brother refugees.

641
01:52:14,144 --> 01:52:17,234
There was an orphanage
in Kfar Khout.

642
01:52:18,399 --> 01:52:21,859
I spared the children
and I took them with us.

643
01:52:22,736 --> 01:52:25,566
Nihad was among them.

644
01:52:25,697 --> 01:52:30,327
We trained them, prepared them
to fight alongside us.

645
01:52:31,495 --> 01:52:35,455
Nihad had a gift.
He was special.

646
01:52:36,500 --> 01:52:39,880
He quickly became
a formidable marksman.

647
01:52:41,171 --> 01:52:44,721
But... he wanted to find
his mother.

648
01:52:45,801 --> 01:52:47,801
He searched for months.

649
01:52:49,513 --> 01:52:52,143
I don't know what he saw or heard.

650
01:52:53,392 --> 01:52:57,442
He became... crazed with war.

651
01:52:58,480 --> 01:53:02,320
He came back to see me.
He wanted to be a martyr.

652
01:53:02,443 --> 01:53:06,703
His mother would see his photo
on every wall in the country.

653
01:53:08,282 --> 01:53:10,162
But I refused.

654
01:53:11,410 --> 01:53:14,040
He went back to Daresh.

655
01:53:14,163 --> 01:53:18,583
He became the most dangerous
sniper in the region.

656
01:53:18,709 --> 01:53:22,169
A real machine.
He would shoot at anyone.

657
01:53:23,046 --> 01:53:26,876
And then,
there was the enemy invasion.

658
01:53:28,260 --> 01:53:32,680
And one morning...
they captured Nihad.

659
01:53:32,806 --> 01:53:34,886
He'd killed seven soldiers.

660
01:53:36,768 --> 01:53:39,768
They didn't kill him,
they trained him,

661
01:53:39,897 --> 01:53:43,147
and they sent him
to the Kfar Ryat prison.

662
01:53:44,234 --> 01:53:47,244
- He was in prison?
- Yes.

663
01:53:49,948 --> 01:53:52,118
As a torturer.

664
01:53:53,076 --> 01:53:54,866
With my father?

665
01:53:54,995 --> 01:53:59,325
No. He didn't work
with Abou Tarek, your father.

666
01:54:28,654 --> 01:54:30,244
You OK?

667
01:54:34,743 --> 01:54:36,833
One plus one...

668
01:54:36,954 --> 01:54:38,544
makes two.

669
01:54:39,456 --> 01:54:40,866
What?

670
01:54:43,961 --> 01:54:46,591
One plus one makes two.

671
01:54:46,713 --> 01:54:48,513
It can't make one.

672
01:54:55,013 --> 01:54:56,853
You're feverish.

673
01:54:59,268 --> 01:55:00,688
Jeanne?

674
01:55:02,563 --> 01:55:05,313
One plus one...
Can it make one?

675
01:55:27,170 --> 01:55:30,210
- There's a chair.
- Take it if you want.

676
01:56:59,012 --> 01:57:00,972
Can I help you, madame?

677
01:57:10,190 --> 01:57:11,820
I'm sorry.

678
01:58:21,595 --> 01:58:24,135
When he became a torturer,

679
01:58:24,264 --> 01:58:26,564
your brother changed names.

680
01:58:26,683 --> 01:58:29,563
He became... Abou Tarek.

681
01:58:32,314 --> 01:58:35,614
Nihad of May is Abou Tarek.

682
01:58:39,613 --> 01:58:44,123
We know he's living in Canada
under a new identity.

683
01:58:44,242 --> 01:58:46,622
Nihad Harmanni.

684
01:59:25,784 --> 01:59:27,414
Mr Harmanni?

685
01:59:30,163 --> 01:59:31,583
Yes.

686
01:59:38,672 --> 01:59:40,512
This is for you.

687
02:00:10,871 --> 02:00:12,751
LETTER TO THE FATHER

688
02:00:25,927 --> 02:00:28,547
I'm shaking as I write.

689
02:00:28,680 --> 02:00:30,810
I recognized you.

690
02:00:30,932 --> 02:00:32,732
You didn't recognize me.

691
02:00:32,851 --> 02:00:34,891
It's magnificent, a miracle.

692
02:00:35,020 --> 02:00:37,350
I am your number 72.

693
02:00:38,440 --> 02:00:41,280
Our children will deliver this.

694
02:00:42,193 --> 02:00:44,403
You won't recognize them,

695
02:00:44,529 --> 02:00:46,159
for they are beautiful.

696
02:00:46,281 --> 02:00:48,411
But they know who you are.

697
02:00:57,000 --> 02:01:00,750
Through them, I want to tell you
that you are still alive.

698
02:01:01,755 --> 02:01:04,755
Soon you'll turn silent...
I know.

699
02:01:06,301 --> 02:01:09,051
For all are silent before the truth.

700
02:01:10,013 --> 02:01:12,973
Signed: Whore 72.

701
02:01:27,155 --> 02:01:29,485
I speak to the son,

702
02:01:29,616 --> 02:01:32,076
not to the torturer.

703
02:01:32,202 --> 02:01:35,832
Whatever happens,
I'll always love you.

704
02:01:35,956 --> 02:01:39,746
I promised you that
when you were born, my son.

705
02:01:39,876 --> 02:01:43,246
Whatever happens,
I'll always love you.

706
02:01:44,255 --> 02:01:46,835
I looked for you all my life.

707
02:01:46,967 --> 02:01:48,877
I found you.

708
02:01:49,552 --> 02:01:51,602
You couldn't recognize me.

709
02:01:53,139 --> 02:01:56,019
You've a tattoo on your right heel.

710
02:01:56,142 --> 02:01:59,022
I saw it. I recognized you.

711
02:02:00,063 --> 02:02:02,483
You are beautiful.

712
02:02:02,607 --> 02:02:05,527
I wrap you in tenderness, my love.

713
02:02:06,361 --> 02:02:08,571
Take solace,

714
02:02:08,697 --> 02:02:11,817
for nothing means more
than being together.

715
02:02:11,950 --> 02:02:14,080
You were born of love.

716
02:02:14,202 --> 02:02:18,042
So your brother and sister
were born of love, too.

717
02:02:19,582 --> 02:02:22,082
Nothing means more
than being together.

718
02:02:23,086 --> 02:02:26,256
Your mother,
Nawal Marwan.

719
02:02:27,257 --> 02:02:29,427
Prisoner No 72.

720
02:02:38,143 --> 02:02:41,233
When the envelopes
have been delivered,

721
02:02:41,354 --> 02:02:44,364
you'll be given a letter,
the silence broken,

722
02:02:44,482 --> 02:02:46,322
a promise kept,

723
02:02:46,443 --> 02:02:49,193
and you can place a stone
on my grave,

724
02:02:49,320 --> 02:02:51,950
and on it
engrave my name in the sun.

725
02:03:12,469 --> 02:03:14,139
My loves,

726
02:03:15,305 --> 02:03:18,215
where does your story begin?

727
02:03:18,349 --> 02:03:20,349
At your birth?

728
02:03:21,686 --> 02:03:23,686
If so, it begins in horror.

729
02:03:24,939 --> 02:03:27,149
At the birth of your father?

730
02:03:28,151 --> 02:03:30,901
Then it begins in a great love story.

731
02:03:33,114 --> 02:03:36,744
But I say your story
begins with a promise,

732
02:03:36,868 --> 02:03:39,288
to break the chain of anger.

733
02:03:41,206 --> 02:03:44,166
Thanks to you,
today I have finally kept it.

734
02:03:44,292 --> 02:03:46,922
The chain is broken.

735
02:03:47,045 --> 02:03:50,545
Finally I can take the time
to cradle you,

736
02:03:50,673 --> 02:03:53,803
to gently sing a lullaby
to console you.

737
02:03:56,262 --> 02:03:58,562
Nothing means more
than being together.

738
02:03:59,849 --> 02:04:01,479
I love you.

739
02:04:02,727 --> 02:04:04,347
Your mother.

740
02:04:05,396 --> 02:04:06,806
Nawal.

741
02:10:46,714 --> 02:10:49,724
TO OUR GRANDMOTHERS
