1
00:02:04,250 --> 00:02:07,250
Hold on, hold on
2
00:02:12,625 --> 00:02:14,375
We don't want to go in
3
00:02:14,375 --> 00:02:16,500
Slowly, slowly
4
00:02:19,250 --> 00:02:20,125
Hi!
5
00:02:20,125 --> 00:02:22,375
- How are you Madam Aida?
- How are you Hadeel!
6
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:23,625
You are missed!
7
00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:25,500
Same here!
8
00:02:28,625 --> 00:02:29,875
I'll call you!
9
00:02:29,875 --> 00:02:31,416
Thanks so much, Hadeel!
10
00:02:31,625 --> 00:02:34,000
Oh come here...
11
00:06:09,375 --> 00:06:10,375
Oh my darling
12
00:06:10,375 --> 00:06:13,125
You really made me laugh
13
00:06:13,750 --> 00:06:17,500
I'm going to speak
like my mother as well
14
00:06:17,625 --> 00:06:22,500
By the way, I saw the pictures
I’m sad to have missed it
15
00:06:22,625 --> 00:06:24,125
How did it go?
16
00:06:24,125 --> 00:06:26,875
I really miss you
so much and...
17
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,375
Here, the audience applauds
18
00:08:50,500 --> 00:08:53,125
and their desynchronized applause
19
00:08:53,125 --> 00:08:55,750
soon becomes a single pulse
20
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,875
as everyone begins to clap in unison
21
00:09:01,125 --> 00:09:03,875
Who initiated this synchronization?
22
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,125
In fact, no one
23
00:09:06,375 --> 00:09:08,625
Not this man here
24
00:09:08,750 --> 00:09:11,500
Nor that woman
25
00:09:11,875 --> 00:09:15,125
In the forest, cicadas sing in sync
26
00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:18,750
and some fireflies flash
together in the dark
27
00:09:19,500 --> 00:09:23,500
Neurons in our brains fire
together, and wire together
28
00:09:23,625 --> 00:09:26,500
to operate our bodies and minds
29
00:09:26,625 --> 00:09:31,500
and pacemaker cells
synch up in our hearts
30
00:09:31,625 --> 00:09:34,166
to generate the beat
31
00:09:34,375 --> 00:09:35,750
‘The Galaxy’ magazine

July 1968 Edition
34
00:10:25,125 --> 00:10:27,625
Have you been here long?
35
00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:30,625
A week or so
36
00:10:35,875 --> 00:10:39,000
I arrived this afternoon
37
00:10:41,375 --> 00:10:44,875
And who told you that I was coming?
38
00:10:46,375 --> 00:10:47,875
The little birdy
39
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,916
Do you know it?
40
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,750
Your plane was delayed?
41
00:11:00,250 --> 00:11:02,125
Alone?
42
00:11:02,125 --> 00:11:04,000
Yes alone, of course
43
00:11:04,125 --> 00:11:08,000
Just asking if you prefer to be alone
44
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:15,000
Honestly, I didn't want to bother you
45
00:11:18,125 --> 00:11:21,541
And after our last
phone call, I thought...
46
00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:24,625
I thought that maybe....
47
00:11:26,375 --> 00:11:29,125
That what, Walid?
48
00:11:35,125 --> 00:11:38,666
Alright, I’m a bit tired
49
00:11:42,291 --> 00:11:46,000
I'll go sleep in Nadine's room
50
00:12:41,250 --> 00:12:44,125
There’s a picture on
the kitchen table
51
00:12:44,500 --> 00:12:47,125
where Walid is carrying
Aida on his shoulders
52
00:12:47,250 --> 00:12:49,250
on New Years’s eve
53
00:12:49,250 --> 00:12:51,250
It was 1991
54
00:12:51,375 --> 00:12:54,750
So the war had just
ended in Lebanon
55
00:12:55,250 --> 00:12:57,416
It’s taken with a flash
56
00:12:57,500 --> 00:12:59,875
and its corners are darker
57
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,875
but there’s happiness
and colors in it
58
00:13:03,125 --> 00:13:05,250
Aida is sitting on his shoulders
59
00:13:05,291 --> 00:13:07,875
Cheering and laughing
60
00:13:09,125 --> 00:13:11,625
On its back, is written:
61
00:13:11,625 --> 00:13:12,791
The proposal of Walid
62
00:13:12,875 --> 00:13:14,125
‘the doctor’
63
00:13:14,166 --> 00:13:15,625
crossed out
64
00:13:15,666 --> 00:13:17,250
‘the engineer’
65
00:13:17,375 --> 00:13:19,000
crossed out
66
00:13:19,125 --> 00:13:20,875
Below, he continues:
67
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,125
‘the clown’
68
00:13:22,125 --> 00:13:23,291
‘the storyteller’
69
00:13:23,375 --> 00:13:24,875
‘the enamoured’
70
00:13:24,875 --> 00:13:27,291
... asking Aida to marry him
71
00:13:27,416 --> 00:13:30,125
And a small heart
72
00:15:17,125 --> 00:15:18,750
Aida...
73
00:15:18,750 --> 00:15:22,250
Where is Punto? Did you
leave him in Beirut?
74
00:16:02,125 --> 00:16:03,875
Say again?
75
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,750
Punto. Where is Punto?
76
00:16:06,875 --> 00:16:09,000
Punto...
77
00:16:16,125 --> 00:16:18,625
He died
78
00:16:21,250 --> 00:16:24,875
around 3 months ago
79
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,625
What do you mean ‘He died’?
80
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,000
I don’t know, honestly. I woke up
81
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,000
... entered the kitchen
82
00:16:33,125 --> 00:16:35,375
Saw him dead
83
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:42,666
And you didn’t tell me about it?
84
00:16:47,375 --> 00:16:50,875
At the time, we were not talking
85
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,250
and you didn’t want
anyone to bother you
86
00:16:55,625 --> 00:16:59,000
so I didn’t want to bother you
87
00:17:05,875 --> 00:17:10,291
What happened to
him? How did he die?
88
00:17:12,250 --> 00:17:14,500
I don’t know
89
00:17:17,375 --> 00:17:18,625
Maybe...
90
00:17:18,625 --> 00:17:21,250
maybe he ate something bad
91
00:17:21,250 --> 00:17:23,750
No clue. Maybe he got poisoned
92
00:17:23,750 --> 00:17:25,375
‘Maybe he got poisoned...’
93
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:29,750
Are you saying you’re
not sure? You don’t know?
94
00:17:34,250 --> 00:17:37,625
Explain it to me, so I can...
95
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,500
What did you say, Walid?
96
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:50,875
No, I mean, I’m asking...
What did he eat? Homemade food?
97
00:17:50,875 --> 00:17:53,125
How did he get poisoned?
I don’t get it...
98
00:17:53,250 --> 00:17:54,375
I already told you
99
00:17:54,375 --> 00:17:56,125
No I want to understand!
100
00:17:56,125 --> 00:17:58,375
You’re not explaining it to me
101
00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:02,000
Just like that, he was in the
kitchen and he dropped dead?
102
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,250
What did the dog eat,
to get poisoned?
103
00:18:07,250 --> 00:18:10,000
What do you want Walid?
104
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,125
Something in our house?
Something you fed him?
105
00:18:20,625 --> 00:18:23,875
And what did you do next?
106
00:18:24,875 --> 00:18:27,375
Where did you put him?
What happened?...
107
00:18:29,500 --> 00:18:31,875
You know what...
108
00:18:31,875 --> 00:18:33,875
I’m really very tired
109
00:18:33,875 --> 00:18:35,625
I’m done
110
00:18:35,750 --> 00:18:38,625
and I want to sleep
111
00:18:44,125 --> 00:18:47,625
I want to go out. Can you give
me the car keys please?
112
00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:50,000
Where do you want to go?
113
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,875
Aida, I feel like going out
114
00:18:52,916 --> 00:18:56,250
If you don’t mind,
give me the keys
115
00:19:08,500 --> 00:19:10,375
After you
116
00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:13,625
Go on, go ahead
117
00:20:16,875 --> 00:20:17,750
No heater?
118
00:20:17,875 --> 00:20:19,291
Not working
119
00:20:28,250 --> 00:20:30,791
Did you speak with Nadine lately?
120
00:20:30,875 --> 00:20:32,750
Yes I did speak with her
121
00:20:32,750 --> 00:20:36,000
Did she tell you that her
exams are coming up?
122
00:20:36,041 --> 00:20:37,791
Yes she said so
123
00:20:37,875 --> 00:20:39,791
And how did you find her?
124
00:20:39,916 --> 00:20:40,875
Fine!
125
00:20:40,916 --> 00:20:43,125
You felt she was fine?
126
00:20:43,375 --> 00:20:47,125
I didn’t feel she was fine
at all when I spoke to her
127
00:20:47,250 --> 00:20:49,125
Every time I call her,
I find her at home
128
00:20:49,125 --> 00:20:51,500
She doesn't go out,
doesn't see her friends
129
00:20:51,750 --> 00:20:53,375
She doesn't do anything...
130
00:20:53,375 --> 00:20:55,625
and her grades
131
00:20:56,375 --> 00:20:58,041
are not good
132
00:20:59,875 --> 00:21:03,625
She’s my daughter and I know
her. She’s not fine, Nadine
133
00:21:04,625 --> 00:21:05,791
She needs to come back
134
00:21:05,875 --> 00:21:08,375
Staying over there alone in the cold
135
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,625
is not good for her
136
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,500
Nadine needs to come back, Walid
137
00:21:16,625 --> 00:21:19,375
I don’t want her to stay over there
138
00:21:52,375 --> 00:21:55,000
See if you'd told me
139
00:21:55,125 --> 00:21:58,041
I would have come to bury him
140
00:23:24,875 --> 00:23:26,500
Come closer
141
00:23:28,750 --> 00:23:31,125
Guys! Up there!
142
00:23:36,750 --> 00:23:37,875
Hi there
143
00:23:37,875 --> 00:23:39,500
Good morning
144
00:23:40,875 --> 00:23:42,166
Who’s in charge here?
145
00:23:42,250 --> 00:23:43,500
How can I help you?
146
00:23:44,541 --> 00:23:46,125
How shall I put it...
I have a dog
147
00:23:46,125 --> 00:23:46,916
Yes
148
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,875
I was abroad
149
00:23:48,875 --> 00:23:50,166
and he passed
150
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:52,000
The dog passed?
151
00:23:52,125 --> 00:23:53,500
Yes, the dog passed
152
00:23:53,625 --> 00:23:55,250
God rest his soul
153
00:23:55,250 --> 00:23:57,125
and my wife buried him
at your place, here
154
00:23:57,250 --> 00:23:58,000
Here?
155
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,375
I’m the one in charge here
156
00:23:59,500 --> 00:24:01,666
no one can bring in a thing
157
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:04,750
Mahmoud, Mahmoud
158
00:24:04,791 --> 00:24:06,250
...I’d appreciate it
159
00:24:06,291 --> 00:24:08,166
Of course. You’re most welcome
160
00:24:09,166 --> 00:24:10,375
Mahmoud, Mahmoud
161
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,250
Mahmoud did you
see someone at night
162
00:24:14,250 --> 00:24:15,750
carrying a dead dog
163
00:24:15,750 --> 00:24:17,875
They dumped it here,
they buried it somewhere
164
00:24:17,875 --> 00:24:20,125
Did you see anyone?
165
00:24:21,250 --> 00:24:23,125
Say again, Sir...
166
00:24:23,625 --> 00:24:25,791
A dog, a dead dog.
They brought it at night
167
00:24:25,875 --> 00:24:28,375
A woman brought it...
They dumped it, buried it
168
00:24:28,375 --> 00:24:30,291
I don’t know where
169
00:24:30,375 --> 00:24:31,916
No no, I didn't see anything
170
00:24:32,875 --> 00:24:35,500
Are you sure you
didn’t see anything?
171
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,291
Yes, I’m sure
172
00:24:38,375 --> 00:24:40,166
He didn’t see anything
173
00:24:40,625 --> 00:24:42,000
You’re welcome
174
00:24:42,125 --> 00:24:43,625
Thank you, bless you
175
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:46,000
Dearest. Goodbye!
176
00:24:47,250 --> 00:24:49,500
Is this place suitable for a dog?
177
00:24:49,625 --> 00:24:51,625
... a rocky ground
178
00:24:57,500 --> 00:24:58,750
... his wife
179
00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:03,250
Here, park it yourself
180
00:26:18,416 --> 00:26:20,875
When did you get
electricity today?
181
00:26:20,916 --> 00:26:23,416
We get it for 3 to 4 hours
182
00:26:23,625 --> 00:26:26,041
Three hours?...
183
00:26:26,291 --> 00:26:30,250
Yeah from 4 to 7 in the evening
184
00:26:30,375 --> 00:26:33,625
Well we get it at night,
from 3 to 6 am
185
00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:36,375
Yesterday we got it
from 6 to 9 am
186
00:26:38,625 --> 00:26:40,125
Imad, how are you?
187
00:26:40,166 --> 00:26:42,625
Hi Aida, how are you?
188
00:26:42,625 --> 00:26:44,250
So you're among us today
189
00:26:44,250 --> 00:26:45,875
... Not too cold for you?
190
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,375
A little...
191
00:28:00,875 --> 00:28:02,375
In this box
192
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:05,375
there’s a letter that Aida
received from Walid
193
00:28:05,375 --> 00:28:08,875
It had a picture of the
sunset in Senegal
194
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,375
He had emigrated a month earlier
to work in an NGO over there
195
00:28:12,750 --> 00:28:14,041
It was the year 2000
196
00:28:14,125 --> 00:28:16,791
Lebanon was getting
rebuilt after the war
197
00:28:16,875 --> 00:28:19,625
and everyone had
hopes in new beginnings
198
00:28:19,666 --> 00:28:21,291
...except for Walid
199
00:28:21,375 --> 00:28:24,000
He insisted that Aida and
Nadine travel with him
200
00:28:24,125 --> 00:28:26,875
but Aida didn’t want
to leave the country
201
00:28:27,041 --> 00:28:28,875
so he left alone
202
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,625
He called her everyday for 4 weeks
203
00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:33,500
but Aida didn’t answer
204
00:28:33,500 --> 00:28:36,375
and he stayed without
news from her and Nadine
205
00:28:36,500 --> 00:28:38,500
so he sent her a letter
206
00:28:38,625 --> 00:28:40,625
In the box, there are other papers
207
00:28:40,750 --> 00:28:42,250
The registration papers
of the mountain house
208
00:28:42,250 --> 00:28:44,250
that Walid had inherited
from his parents
209
00:28:44,250 --> 00:28:48,375
Companies’ paperwork... Some
that got registered, others not
210
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:50,125
A translation company
211
00:28:50,250 --> 00:28:51,875
A Lebanese restaurant
212
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,500
A clothing store
213
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:56,500
Loans, debts and bank warnings
214
00:28:56,625 --> 00:28:58,750
And the lawyer’s bill
215
00:29:24,125 --> 00:29:26,875
Hi Ameen, I’ve been trying
to call you for a week
216
00:29:26,916 --> 00:29:30,125
I’d like to know if you have news
217
00:29:30,166 --> 00:29:32,375
from the client
218
00:29:32,875 --> 00:29:36,000
so please get back to me
as soon as possible
219
00:29:36,125 --> 00:29:37,791
for me to know where I stand
220
00:29:37,875 --> 00:29:40,166
I’m waiting to hear
from you. Thank you
221
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:01,416
...the contract signing
that we spoke about
222
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,000
That was my question, yes
223
00:33:04,125 --> 00:33:05,625
I'm at your disposal...
224
00:33:05,625 --> 00:33:07,125
Thank you! Bye
225
00:34:44,625 --> 00:34:46,375
In this notebook
226
00:34:46,375 --> 00:34:48,250
there are doodles
227
00:34:48,750 --> 00:34:50,000
Birds
228
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,666
Trees
229
00:34:51,750 --> 00:34:53,125
Houses
230
00:34:54,125 --> 00:34:57,500
and there are words
translated with a BIC pen
231
00:34:58,041 --> 00:35:01,625
Among them, the word 'Pine'
232
00:35:02,125 --> 00:35:05,125
In Arabic, it became 'to yearn'
233
00:35:05,500 --> 00:35:07,500
And underneath it, a sentence:
234
00:35:07,625 --> 00:35:15,125
‘They pined for each other
when they were apart’
235
00:35:25,041 --> 00:35:27,125
Karim!
236
00:35:29,750 --> 00:35:31,250
Karim!
237
00:35:34,125 --> 00:35:35,916
Is the water delivery guy here?
238
00:35:35,916 --> 00:35:39,000
I’m out of running
water, I’m waiting for him
239
00:35:40,375 --> 00:35:43,500
I'm waiting for him
downstairs, Karim
240
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,750
I'm waiting for him.
I’m out of running water
241
00:36:00,375 --> 00:36:04,250
Please tell me when to
meet him downstairs
242
00:36:04,250 --> 00:36:08,125
before he starts knocking
on my neighbors doors
243
00:36:51,333 --> 00:36:54,166
Yesterday I called you
244
00:36:54,250 --> 00:36:57,250
to tell you ‘I miss you’
245
00:36:57,333 --> 00:36:59,666
then when I heard your voice
246
00:36:59,708 --> 00:37:02,166
I forgot what to tell you
247
00:37:02,833 --> 00:37:06,291
Your parents used to love this song
248
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,000
Your hands are freezing cold
249
00:37:22,750 --> 00:37:25,000
When is your flight?
250
00:37:25,250 --> 00:37:27,625
After tomorrow
251
00:37:50,916 --> 00:37:52,875
Look at me
252
00:38:13,750 --> 00:38:17,125
The electricity is gone again
253
00:38:26,875 --> 00:38:29,250
Are you sure you know
what you’re doing?
254
00:38:29,291 --> 00:38:31,041
Do you want to cut
them yourself ? Here.
255
00:38:31,125 --> 00:38:32,875
No, I trust you
256
00:38:33,375 --> 00:38:34,625
Really...
257
00:38:35,250 --> 00:38:37,750
You know how to sweet talk now
258
00:38:37,750 --> 00:38:40,375
And you enjoy teasing me
259
00:38:43,250 --> 00:38:45,000
Maybe
260
00:38:47,375 --> 00:38:50,500
And you like to hide
things from me, I know it
261
00:38:53,375 --> 00:38:55,625
I didn’t know that
262
00:38:55,875 --> 00:38:58,250
Of course you do
263
00:39:09,250 --> 00:39:11,375
Look at me
264
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,500
Beautiful!
265
00:39:20,500 --> 00:39:22,750
It’s in your eyes that I’m beautiful
266
00:39:26,875 --> 00:39:29,500
Remember the song that
your father used to sing?
267
00:39:29,625 --> 00:39:32,375
What was it called again?
268
00:39:34,125 --> 00:39:36,625
You know what I’m talking about
269
00:39:48,750 --> 00:39:51,125
Walid, what are you doing?
270
00:39:51,750 --> 00:39:53,875
I’m watering the plants
271
00:39:55,500 --> 00:39:57,750
Can you see this beautiful flower?
272
00:39:58,625 --> 00:40:01,000
Yes, it's gorgeous
273
00:40:02,125 --> 00:40:04,291
It’s actually a...
274
00:40:04,500 --> 00:40:05,500
...Magnolia!
275
00:40:05,625 --> 00:40:07,375
Magnolia...
276
00:40:07,750 --> 00:40:09,875
I planted it for you
277
00:40:12,125 --> 00:40:15,000
What do you think
of this Jasmine here?
278
00:40:15,125 --> 00:40:17,875
Ah! I love their smell
279
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,625
It’s so very pretty, Walid
280
00:40:21,250 --> 00:40:23,125
They need a bit of water
281
00:40:23,250 --> 00:40:25,625
It has a lovely smell
282
00:40:26,375 --> 00:40:28,375
See how beautiful it is?
283
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:30,875
See how beautiful this one is?
284
00:40:34,750 --> 00:40:36,500
Water it
285
00:40:41,125 --> 00:40:43,500
Do you remember that ...
286
00:40:43,750 --> 00:40:46,500
...hotel we used to go to?
287
00:40:48,375 --> 00:40:51,625
Would you like to go
have dinner there?
288
00:40:51,750 --> 00:40:54,125
Sure, that’s a great idea
289
00:41:27,625 --> 00:41:32,875
(Audio of football match)
290
00:43:11,125 --> 00:43:12,500
Were the toilets clean?
291
00:43:17,750 --> 00:43:18,875
Wine?
292
00:43:19,250 --> 00:43:20,125
Thank you
293
00:43:32,125 --> 00:43:34,750
Was there a long wait?
294
00:43:34,875 --> 00:43:37,750
There’s no one
295
00:43:49,375 --> 00:43:50,750
Cheers
296
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,500
It's delicious
297
00:43:56,625 --> 00:43:58,375
See, I ordered red wine
298
00:43:58,416 --> 00:44:00,375
I see that
299
00:44:14,500 --> 00:44:16,500
Please go ahead
300
00:44:17,625 --> 00:44:20,000
You go first
301
00:44:21,750 --> 00:44:23,750
Why don’t you want to eat?
302
00:44:23,750 --> 00:44:25,625
Do you want to get rid of me?
303
00:44:31,750 --> 00:44:34,375
So you’re thinking what I'm thinking
304
00:44:34,875 --> 00:44:35,500
Yeah
305
00:44:35,625 --> 00:44:37,125
Okay then...
306
00:44:37,250 --> 00:44:38,666
I’ll go first
307
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,000
Stop it, stop it. Don’t be silly
308
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:55,500
Walid
309
00:45:01,625 --> 00:45:03,375
You’re so silly
310
00:45:03,375 --> 00:45:05,750
You can safely eat now
311
00:45:06,625 --> 00:45:09,000
Would you pour me some water?
312
00:45:16,875 --> 00:45:18,750
That’s it?
313
00:45:19,500 --> 00:45:21,416
Water is expensive these days
314
00:45:35,875 --> 00:45:38,250
Is red still your favorite color?
315
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:40,291
It still is...
316
00:45:40,375 --> 00:45:43,125
And Mulukhiyah, your best dish?
317
00:45:43,250 --> 00:45:45,625
My mom’s
318
00:45:47,250 --> 00:45:51,750
Are you planning on asking
me questions for long?
319
00:45:55,500 --> 00:45:58,041
Fine, I have a nice question now
320
00:46:00,500 --> 00:46:01,750
A precise one
321
00:46:01,875 --> 00:46:03,625
You will like it
322
00:46:10,250 --> 00:46:12,625
What’s your worst nightmare?
323
00:46:14,625 --> 00:46:18,000
Why are you taking me there?
324
00:46:18,125 --> 00:46:21,125
Just like that. I think
it’s a nice question
325
00:46:28,375 --> 00:46:30,000
So do you mean...
326
00:46:30,125 --> 00:46:33,125
... in reality or in a dream?
327
00:46:33,500 --> 00:46:35,250
Whatever you want
328
00:46:36,375 --> 00:46:38,375
I’m going to tell you something
329
00:46:38,375 --> 00:46:40,875
that I’ve never told anyone
330
00:46:41,625 --> 00:46:43,750
Do you want to know?
331
00:46:46,500 --> 00:46:49,750
I remember, I was...
332
00:46:51,625 --> 00:46:53,375
I was napping in the afternoon
333
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:55,541
and I was starting to fall asleep
334
00:46:55,625 --> 00:46:58,875
I found myself in a
magnificent house
335
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,375
I was an architect
336
00:47:00,500 --> 00:47:03,125
It turned out I had built it
337
00:47:03,250 --> 00:47:07,000
and there was the team
I was working with
338
00:47:07,250 --> 00:47:10,541
I was giving them instructions
339
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,000
and I remember as well
340
00:47:15,125 --> 00:47:17,875
that we were in
Mexico or Colombia...
341
00:47:17,916 --> 00:47:20,375
Something like that...
South America
342
00:47:20,416 --> 00:47:22,875
I had 3 children
343
00:47:23,250 --> 00:47:24,625
I didn’t picture them
344
00:47:24,625 --> 00:47:27,125
but I could see them
running and laughing
345
00:47:27,500 --> 00:47:30,375
I was married to someone
346
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,416
I think a foreigner
347
00:47:33,625 --> 00:47:35,875
We were working together
348
00:47:36,125 --> 00:47:37,375
and...
349
00:47:38,375 --> 00:47:40,750
I also didn’t see him,
but I heard his voice
350
00:47:40,791 --> 00:47:43,666
and I remember
very well what I felt
351
00:47:44,125 --> 00:47:47,875
I felt something very warm
352
00:47:48,125 --> 00:47:50,291
I felt I was safe
353
00:47:53,625 --> 00:47:56,375
and I felt a happiness
354
00:47:56,375 --> 00:47:58,750
that I had never felt before
355
00:48:03,875 --> 00:48:06,375
But that’s not a nightmare...
356
00:48:09,416 --> 00:48:11,375
I don’t know. I don’t know
357
00:48:13,375 --> 00:48:16,875
Suddenly, I realized that...
358
00:48:16,875 --> 00:48:18,500
time had passed
359
00:48:18,750 --> 00:48:22,166
that I could have made
other life choices
360
00:48:22,875 --> 00:48:26,250
but time was over
361
00:48:26,500 --> 00:48:29,291
As we say ‘It’s too late’
362
00:48:45,875 --> 00:48:48,000
It’s alright
363
00:48:50,875 --> 00:48:52,125
Am I boring you?
364
00:48:52,125 --> 00:48:54,625
Not, not at all
365
00:48:54,750 --> 00:48:58,125
I don’t know. I’m talking nonsense
366
00:48:58,625 --> 00:49:01,500
... but that’s how I felt at the time
367
00:49:20,125 --> 00:49:23,125
I like this place
368
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:29,000
It brings back nice memories
369
00:50:25,375 --> 00:50:28,750
You never asked me
if I’m seeing someone
370
00:50:31,125 --> 00:50:33,416
I prefer not to know
371
00:50:41,750 --> 00:50:43,875
It’s cold
372
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,166
Come closer
373
00:50:48,500 --> 00:50:51,125
Come
374
00:51:07,375 --> 00:51:09,250
Closer
375
00:51:09,291 --> 00:51:11,041
Come...
376
00:52:52,125 --> 00:52:55,500
Let's go back home
377
00:55:36,750 --> 00:55:38,625
I’m telling you to go play outside
378
00:55:38,625 --> 00:55:39,750
I don’t want to
379
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,250
Yes you do! Go play outside
380
00:55:42,500 --> 00:55:43,625
It’s none of your business!
381
00:55:43,750 --> 00:55:45,875
You’re not allowed
to come here anymore
382
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:47,875
...where are his parents!
383
00:55:48,041 --> 00:55:49,416
Out. Hurry!
384
00:55:49,666 --> 00:55:50,750
I don’t want to
385
00:55:50,875 --> 00:55:52,250
Stop it already
386
00:55:52,291 --> 00:55:54,375
Go play in your own house
387
00:55:54,625 --> 00:55:56,166
...that’s my house
388
00:55:56,250 --> 00:55:57,875
No, it’s my house!
389
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,250
Go to the tree, that’s your house
390
00:56:00,250 --> 00:56:01,875
Go back to sleep!
391
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:03,500
This house here is mine!
392
00:56:03,541 --> 00:56:05,125
Give me that ball
393
00:56:05,250 --> 00:56:06,750
I’m gonna take it
394
00:57:29,375 --> 00:57:31,250
In the pocket of a black sweater
395
00:57:31,375 --> 00:57:33,250
that Walid had lost a long time ago
396
00:57:33,375 --> 00:57:35,375
There’s a letter to Julia
397
00:57:35,625 --> 00:57:37,125
from 2007
398
00:57:37,250 --> 00:57:40,250
so 5 years after he emigrated
399
00:57:40,375 --> 00:57:42,500
Dear Julia,
400
00:57:42,625 --> 00:57:44,875
We’ve known each other
for almost a year now
401
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,125
and I think I love you
402
00:57:47,750 --> 00:57:51,250
It came to me as a revelation
a few minutes ago
403
00:57:51,250 --> 00:57:54,125
as I was walking home in the cold
404
00:57:54,375 --> 00:57:56,500
It’s been another tough day at work
405
00:57:57,750 --> 00:57:58,875
In your arms
406
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,000
I am at peace
407
00:58:01,500 --> 00:58:04,250
and your support means a lot
408
00:58:04,750 --> 00:58:08,000
I’m fascinated by how calm
and orderly your life is
409
00:58:09,625 --> 00:58:12,125
The crazy stories of the
country I come from
410
00:58:12,375 --> 00:58:14,000
do not impress you
411
00:58:14,125 --> 00:58:16,750
Wars and eccentric things like that
412
00:58:17,125 --> 00:58:19,875
and my silly jokes do
not make you laugh
413
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:23,375
I’ve often wondered
what it is you like in me
414
00:58:23,875 --> 00:58:25,500
For the first time
415
00:58:25,625 --> 00:58:28,000
I want to have an ordinary life
416
00:58:29,500 --> 00:58:32,500
Perhaps, there’s even
someone else I can be
417
00:58:33,125 --> 00:58:34,500
Anyway
418
00:58:34,750 --> 00:58:36,375
It’s been a while
419
00:58:36,500 --> 00:58:38,500
Shall we meet tomorrow?
420
00:58:39,625 --> 00:58:41,000
On the letter itself
421
00:58:41,125 --> 00:58:42,666
Julia replies
422
00:58:43,750 --> 00:58:44,750
Dear Walid
423
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,000
I am sorry to not be able
to see you any longer
424
00:58:48,750 --> 00:58:50,625
I’m going back to Germany
425
00:58:51,125 --> 00:58:53,375
and my husband awaits me
426
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,375
Walid is something wrong with you?
427
00:59:33,500 --> 00:59:35,625
No
428
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,875
Do you feel anything weird?
429
00:59:40,125 --> 00:59:42,000
No
430
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:46,291
Like what?
431
00:59:46,375 --> 00:59:48,750
I don't know. Like...
432
00:59:49,125 --> 00:59:50,875
Is your health Ok?
433
00:59:55,875 --> 00:59:57,375
All is good
434
00:59:58,125 --> 01:00:00,125
That's great
435
01:00:04,125 --> 01:00:05,500
Do you feel depressed?
436
01:00:05,500 --> 01:00:06,000
No
437
01:00:06,041 --> 01:00:07,041
Anxious?
438
01:00:07,125 --> 01:00:08,125
Not at all
439
01:00:08,166 --> 01:00:08,750
Nothing?
440
01:00:08,791 --> 01:00:09,666
Nothing
441
01:00:11,750 --> 01:00:13,750
All good, thank goodness
442
01:00:15,375 --> 01:00:17,250
Trouble at work?
443
01:00:19,625 --> 01:00:20,625
I didn't hear you...
444
01:00:20,750 --> 01:00:23,416
Your work. Is it going well?
445
01:00:29,625 --> 01:00:32,875
You’re worried about
yourself, right?
446
01:00:47,375 --> 01:00:51,250
Walid, have you ever asked
me how I was doing?
447
01:00:56,625 --> 01:00:57,375
Aida...
448
01:00:57,375 --> 01:01:00,625
How are you doing today?
449
01:03:19,250 --> 01:03:20,625
‘The Galaxy’ magazine
450
01:03:20,625 --> 01:03:22,375
Page 55
451
01:03:22,500 --> 01:03:25,250
December 1970 edition
452
01:03:25,875 --> 01:03:27,875
Under the advertisement
of a local cheese
453
01:03:27,875 --> 01:03:29,416
picturing a Dutch cow
454
01:03:29,500 --> 01:03:31,125
on green grass
455
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,625
the following text:
456
01:03:34,916 --> 01:03:36,875
Astronomers have identified
457
01:03:36,875 --> 01:03:40,875
the biggest pair of black
holes ever spotted
458
01:03:41,125 --> 01:03:43,291
as the couple jointly weighs
459
01:03:43,375 --> 01:03:47,416
the equivalent of 28 billion suns
460
01:03:47,666 --> 01:03:48,875
However
461
01:03:48,875 --> 01:03:52,000
despite their exceptional
proximity to one another
462
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:56,250
they refuse categorically
to collide and merge
463
01:03:56,500 --> 01:03:59,625
These two giants got
stuck in an orbital dance
464
01:03:59,666 --> 01:04:02,750
that they’ve been repeating
for the past 3 billion years
465
01:04:02,916 --> 01:04:04,750
and the scientists
466
01:04:04,750 --> 01:04:08,416
still don’t know if they
will keep the status quo
467
01:04:08,500 --> 01:04:10,291
facing each other
468
01:04:10,416 --> 01:04:12,625
or if they will surrender
469
01:04:12,750 --> 01:04:15,625
and merge in a giant collision
470
01:05:10,250 --> 01:05:12,125
Hello Abu Fouad, how are you?
471
01:05:12,250 --> 01:05:13,250
How are you dear
472
01:05:13,250 --> 01:05:14,750
Good and you
473
01:05:14,750 --> 01:05:15,750
Where's Walid
474
01:05:15,750 --> 01:05:17,000
Walid?
475
01:05:19,625 --> 01:05:20,375
Walid!
476
01:05:25,500 --> 01:05:27,000
Walid!
477
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,750
Of course he’s hiding!
478
01:05:30,375 --> 01:05:34,875
Tell him that if this buyer
dares to come here
479
01:05:34,875 --> 01:05:36,500
I'll break his legs
480
01:05:36,500 --> 01:05:38,875
I'll be waiting with my gun
481
01:05:38,875 --> 01:05:41,375
I'll blow his brains
out, is that clear?
482
01:05:41,750 --> 01:05:43,625
Selling the house to a foreigner!
483
01:05:43,625 --> 01:05:46,875
What would your parents
say... if they were still alive
484
01:05:47,125 --> 01:05:47,666
Come out
485
01:05:47,666 --> 01:05:51,750
You coward! Come out!
486
01:05:57,125 --> 01:05:58,500
Would you like a glass
of water, Abu Fouad?
487
01:05:58,625 --> 01:06:00,000
No, I don't want water
488
01:06:00,125 --> 01:06:01,375
I don't want water
489
01:06:02,500 --> 01:06:05,125
It's like a bucket of water
spilled on my head!
490
01:06:05,250 --> 01:06:07,250
Ice cold water
491
01:06:07,375 --> 01:06:10,125
Shame on him
492
01:06:11,625 --> 01:06:13,125
What are you doing?
493
01:06:13,125 --> 01:06:16,875
What do you mean
‘what are doing’?
494
01:06:19,500 --> 01:06:23,125
(complaints continue)
495
01:06:28,375 --> 01:06:31,125
What’s happening
here is unaceptable
496
01:06:32,875 --> 01:06:34,875
Abu Dany, I want to speak to you
497
01:06:43,250 --> 01:06:45,500
Show me your muscles, dirtbag
498
01:06:45,625 --> 01:06:47,375
You dare bring a stranger
to the village?
499
01:06:47,500 --> 01:06:49,375
I’ll break your legs if you do
500
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:44,041
Let me see...
501
01:07:44,125 --> 01:07:46,250
Put your head back
502
01:07:49,125 --> 01:07:51,166
Give it to me
503
01:08:00,625 --> 01:08:02,500
I'm exhausted Walid...
504
01:08:02,500 --> 01:08:04,375
Exhausted
505
01:08:05,750 --> 01:08:08,750
He didn’t answer me.
The sale fell through
506
01:08:12,625 --> 01:08:15,125
There's blood on your sweater
507
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:17,625
Give it to me
508
01:08:17,625 --> 01:08:18,750
Just give it to me
509
01:08:24,875 --> 01:08:27,625
I'm tired Walid...
You're wearing me out
510
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:32,791
I don’t know what's
going on with you
511
01:08:32,875 --> 01:08:35,250
I don’t know what your plans are
512
01:08:35,250 --> 01:08:39,375
The dreadful mess
you keep getting into...
513
01:08:43,125 --> 01:08:45,916
I want a divorce, Walid
514
01:08:46,125 --> 01:08:48,500
I want a divorce
515
01:08:51,625 --> 01:08:55,125
I want to take all my stuff and leave
516
01:09:00,250 --> 01:09:02,500
Or you know what...
517
01:09:02,875 --> 01:09:04,875
I don't want to take anything
518
01:09:04,875 --> 01:09:07,000
You take everything
519
01:09:15,500 --> 01:09:18,250
You’re not taking me seriously
520
01:10:49,250 --> 01:10:51,000
In this particular picture
521
01:10:51,125 --> 01:10:53,250
all looks fine
522
01:10:53,500 --> 01:10:55,625
There’s a birthday table
523
01:10:55,875 --> 01:10:59,375
and 16 candles on the cake
524
01:10:59,750 --> 01:11:02,375
and ‘Bonjus’ juice
525
01:11:03,875 --> 01:11:06,125
There are 3 chairs
526
01:11:06,625 --> 01:11:11,250
On the fourth one, there
are bags and jackets
527
01:11:11,750 --> 01:11:14,625
and there’s no one
528
01:11:14,666 --> 01:11:17,750
There’s a sort of
calmness in this picture
529
01:11:18,625 --> 01:11:21,750
One would say that
it’s the picture of a family
530
01:11:21,750 --> 01:11:24,500
that’s loving and harmonious
531
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:27,000
The dog, Punto
532
01:11:27,875 --> 01:11:29,250
is under the table
533
01:11:29,375 --> 01:11:32,250
and his tail is showing
534
01:11:32,375 --> 01:11:35,875
That’s all we see in this picture
535
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:40,500
We can’t tell anything else about it
536
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,000
Aida what's wrong
537
01:12:16,500 --> 01:12:18,750
Aida enough, just come inside
538
01:12:27,041 --> 01:12:29,250
What's gotten into you
539
01:12:37,250 --> 01:12:39,375
Move
540
01:12:42,750 --> 01:12:45,625
Walid, I’m telling you
to move from here
541
01:12:47,375 --> 01:12:50,375
Move Walid
542
01:12:51,750 --> 01:12:54,250
Move
543
01:12:54,625 --> 01:12:57,000
Walid, move
544
01:16:51,125 --> 01:16:54,625
Nadine’s bedroom is humid.
Can I sleep here?
545
01:16:56,875 --> 01:16:58,875
You can sleep here
546
01:17:21,125 --> 01:17:24,125
Did you speak with Nadine?
547
01:17:25,500 --> 01:17:26,500
Yes
548
01:17:34,625 --> 01:17:37,750
Do you know that she’s
sleeping at her boyfriend’s?
549
01:17:37,750 --> 01:17:39,000
I know
550
01:17:41,750 --> 01:17:43,875
And do you know her boyfriend?
551
01:17:47,250 --> 01:17:49,375
I know him
552
01:17:50,375 --> 01:17:53,000
Can you tell me who he is?
553
01:17:55,250 --> 01:17:58,000
If she wants to, she’ll tell you
554
01:17:59,541 --> 01:18:02,375
Come on, tell me. I’m her father
555
01:18:20,750 --> 01:18:22,000
Good night Walid
556
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,541
No one ever tells me anything
557
01:18:25,500 --> 01:18:27,000
Good night
558
01:18:58,125 --> 01:19:00,750
I forgot that your feet get cold
559
01:19:37,750 --> 01:19:41,625
When did you stop loving me?
560
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:51,541
Here, a movie recorded
on a VHS tape from the 80’s
561
01:20:51,625 --> 01:20:55,125
and Arabic subtitles
cover half the screen
562
01:20:55,166 --> 01:20:56,666
A woman and a man
563
01:20:56,750 --> 01:20:58,666
are running by the sea
564
01:20:58,750 --> 01:21:00,375
towards the horizon
565
01:21:00,375 --> 01:21:02,500
in summer clothes
566
01:21:02,875 --> 01:21:04,166
The tape is damaged
567
01:21:04,166 --> 01:21:07,125
and plays in slow motion
568
01:21:07,375 --> 01:21:08,625
In real life
569
01:21:08,625 --> 01:21:10,750
the actors were running fast
570
01:21:10,791 --> 01:21:12,625
and in the film itself
571
01:21:12,625 --> 01:21:16,250
the characters were running
at the same speed
572
01:21:16,375 --> 01:21:19,125
but on this slowed down tape
573
01:21:19,250 --> 01:21:21,625
the two persons
disconnected themselves
574
01:21:21,625 --> 01:21:24,250
and entered a parallel dimension
575
01:21:24,375 --> 01:21:27,875
and they stopped responding to anyone
576
01:21:28,125 --> 01:21:30,000
Over there
577
01:21:30,125 --> 01:21:32,916
It’s unclear when one wave ends
578
01:21:33,166 --> 01:21:35,125
and when another one...
579
01:21:35,125 --> 01:21:36,750
...starts
580
01:22:21,125 --> 01:22:23,000
Aida
581
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,500
Hello
582
01:23:31,625 --> 01:23:33,500
Hello
583
01:23:38,125 --> 01:23:40,125
Walid?
584
01:23:48,125 --> 01:23:49,125
Hello
585
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:55,500
Have you seen
my green pullover?
586
01:23:55,541 --> 01:23:58,250
I’m looking for it
587
01:24:01,166 --> 01:24:02,791
No I didn’t see it
588
01:24:08,375 --> 01:24:10,500
I cleaned out the fridge
589
01:24:11,875 --> 01:24:13,291
I thought this would be better
590
01:24:13,375 --> 01:24:15,375
That way I’m ready
591
01:24:17,125 --> 01:24:19,375
Ah. I didn’t hear you
592
01:24:20,875 --> 01:24:23,166
I’m saying that it’s better this way
593
01:24:23,250 --> 01:24:25,750
I’ll be ready
594
01:24:39,375 --> 01:24:41,500
Okay then... Bye
595
01:24:48,375 --> 01:24:50,375
Bye
596
01:25:00,875 --> 01:25:03,875
Sit, sit baby, sit
597
01:25:04,125 --> 01:25:05,375
Well done darling
598
01:25:05,416 --> 01:25:07,000
Good boy
599
01:26:45,250 --> 01:26:49,375
Khalil! Khalil!
600
01:26:52,500 --> 01:26:57,625
...turn on the power generator?
I want to watch the football match
601
01:26:57,666 --> 01:27:00,875
Please. It’s already 12 PM!
602
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:04,541
I’d be grateful. I’m waiting!
