00:00What was the fight over anywit?
00:02Eh, nothing. Well, it's not the guy's fault, you know.
00:06Get out of my way. It's not the governor's office. It's a nightclub.
00:11Let me see.
00:13See, see? Look, they're coming.
00:15I wouldn't expect it from you.
00:17Take a look.
00:17You shouldn't have gotten involved with these thugs.
00:20Ma'am, they forced me to. I'm not into fighting.
00:22See?
00:23I'm sorry, it's just not what I'm into.
00:24They freed the prince.
00:25Huh? Well, it's obvious. The governor's wife supporting him.
00:30He can do whatever he wants in this city.
00:32Yes, yes.
00:33His father started wearing a tie after he was freed from prison.
00:36They're all the same.
00:38You're right. They are two sides to a fight.
00:40Yes, they can't put one side in prison and free the other.
00:44What a city. It's the Wild West.
00:46Yes, yes.
00:46And we are the underdog.
00:48Uh-huh.
00:49Look, brother, as the saying goes,
00:50if they want to arrest all the drunks in the city,
00:53everyone would be in prison.
00:55Okay. Well, thank you very much.
00:58You're welcome.
00:59Ma'am, if you'll excuse me for now.
01:00Thank you. Goodbye.
01:01Goodbye now.
01:02Let's go.
01:03Mr. Tavakoli, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving.
01:06Thank you very much.
01:07No problem. It was my duty.
01:08God be with you.
01:09Goodbye.
01:12Huh?
01:14So you testify, huh?
01:17You want me to break your chin, huh?
01:18Don't leave me, man. Let go.
01:20I'll teach you a lesson, boy.
01:23Now get lost.
01:23Get out of here, man.
01:25Shut up.
01:30Where is Noorala?
01:33All the colds tend to ash.
01:38Well, Sabihola, talk.
01:42All of us owe it.
01:45Mizarreza's family, they're Syed's.
01:48Ajikan, who else could I go to?
01:51Who would understand except for you?
01:53That childish governor, stupid Nikokar, have to show Palavi that they are following his orders.
02:04Well, obviously they have to arrest a few people, huh?
02:10And in the city, all the people, God bless them, except Mizarreza and a couple of others, surrendered themselves.
02:19They followed orders.
02:21Well, you surrendered too, wore the tie.
02:23I put my reputation on the line to get you out of prison once, and you were freed.
02:28The governor's reputation has been stained.
02:30Well, now, I can't interfere to get Mizarreza out.
02:35I did it once, can't do it again.
02:37Who do you think I am?
02:39All I have is a little reputation.
02:41I can't ruin that too.
02:42Even if I intervene, they won't free Mizarreza.
02:45I look bad.
02:46I look like a fool.
02:48Yes.
02:50Maybe you're right.
02:53Sit down, I'm talking to you.
02:56Okay.
03:03Palavi doesn't joke her out.
03:12If he was supposed to be scared of a couple of shop owners, he wouldn't have issued such a ridiculous
03:17creed, which is anti-religion.
03:20I don't know who, in that goddamned British government, dear God, he wouldn't do such a thing without being scared
03:26of scholars and clerics.
03:28But he did.
03:30Sit down.
03:31Where the hell do you want to go anyways?
03:34You come here and wound me up, now you want to leave?
03:37I won't let you go till I say what I want.
03:41Go ahead.
03:42I didn't want to take up your time.
03:46So, you think all shop owners are like Mizarreza?
03:52We have shop owners who give out interest money, don't we?
03:58See, well, that's Mizarreza's problem.
04:01When they call him a cleric, he says he's not one.
04:04When they say you aren't, he says he is.
04:07Well, he was being stubborn.
04:09He became so stubborn until they arrested him.
04:13He wanted a taste of the Palavi prison.
04:25Arjakan.
04:25Arjakan.
04:27They'll kill him.
04:28They won't show him mercy.
04:30They'll crush him, destroy him.
04:36To insult him, they'll throw a prostitute in the cell with him
04:42to crush his soul.
04:45They did that to you, too, huh?
04:48I'm worried about that Dr. Armadi.
04:51That bastard.
04:53He's a goddamn butcher.
04:55Thought he might kill him.
04:58No, no.
05:00For now, I'll give you something in handwriting.
05:02You take it to Tehran.
05:03Save his life.
05:05God bless you, Haji Khan.
05:08I'm telling you, they won't let him go.
05:10He'll get at least two to three years.
05:15Say, let our city, let our city have a Madara's tool.
05:22Let the people talk about him one by one by one by one.
05:27Let them say, let them say that our city had a band.
05:33That a man lived among us.
05:35Pallavi won't last.
05:39I'm ready to bet on it.
05:40You might live to see it.
05:45The ones who tempted him to do this dug his grave.
05:51And in the end, they'll take themselves aside.
05:59All right now, get up and go.
06:01You've ruined my mood.
06:03Go on.
06:04Dear.
06:09Goodbye.
06:20Narola!
06:21Narola!
06:22Coming, sir.
06:23What?
06:24What is it now?
06:25Here we go again.
06:26Oh, God.
06:35If you're not comfortable, you could sit there.
06:37This is good.
06:38Mercy, I'm comfortable.
06:40Whatever you like.
06:41Sora, dear?
06:45Excuse me.
06:45No problem.
06:46Come in, sister.
06:49Hello, ma'am.
06:50Hello, dear.
06:50Here's the tea, ma'am.
06:52Leave the door open, dear.
06:53Thank you very much.
06:56Fresh ale, come in.
06:58Merci.
07:00You're welcome.
07:02We have sweets and sweet berries.
07:04I have everything, thank you.
07:07Whatever you like.
07:09Whatever you need.
07:10Well, I'm at your service.
07:13The truth is, Faruk, dear.
07:15I thought about it a lot, and I decided that I can't be indifferent.
07:20I thought I'd come here to express my feelings with you.
07:25I'm grateful, but I don't know how it's possible for a lady like you, who's part of the tyranny, to
07:33feel the pain of the oppressed.
07:37What you said won't upset me.
07:38I know how you feel.
07:40No, you don't know.
07:44You've taken my life away from me, don't you see?
07:48The spirit of this house is gone, ma'am.
07:52The truth is, I'm upset about the disgusting behaviour of the military.
07:56They weren't supposed to act so harshly.
07:59Why don't you want to accept this?
08:01The foundation of what was done was wrong and still is.
08:04You couldn't have implemented such an anti-religious law without using force.
08:08The people wouldn't have taken off their hijab on their own?
08:12You're not in the right state of mind to discuss this.
08:15And I've already told you about what I think.
08:19As far as I'm concerned, my intention is to serve the women of my country, and I still do.
08:24I don't mean you don't intend to serve.
08:27Never.
08:28But the basis of your way of thinking is material and worldly.
08:32I assure you that you won't be successful the way you want.
08:35All you've done is taken away the freedom and purity of Iranian women.
08:58What can be done?
08:59We've always had this kind of talk in this country.
09:03And we always will.
09:05Leave it.
09:06I think if you come back to school tolerating, this situation might be easier for you, huh?
09:11If I wanted to come back to school, I wouldn't have had all this trouble.
09:19Let me see, Farooq, dear.
09:21This cough isn't normal at all.
09:23I've been seeing you cough for a while.
09:25A good doctor should see you soon, I think.
09:29It's nothing.
09:35What a beautiful and pleasant house you have.
09:38I think it's so delightful.
09:40You have been kind.
09:42This is all because of the good intentions of the architect who built this place.
09:46It's been standing for a century.
09:48How great.
09:49Torn and firm.
09:51Well, I'll be leaving.
09:52It was nice seeing you, if you'll excuse me.
09:54Me too.
09:55Thank you for coming.
09:56No problem.
09:57Please don't.
09:58I know the way.
09:58Please, I'll come with you.
10:34Oh, dear Lord.
10:35You mean, could it be?
10:37I could sell these for 2,000 tomans.
10:42One, two, three, four.
10:45One, two, three, four.
10:47Oh, dear Lord.
11:04One, two, three, four.
11:12Six, six, four.
11:23Oh, it's going to be great if it happens.
11:27Oh, Karim, I love you, man.
11:31I'll stroll through the governor's mansion.
11:33I'll go this way.
11:35Oh, it's nice.
11:38Oh, yeah, it would be nice.
11:45Hey, where are you going?
11:48You can't just go in there.
11:49It's not a caravansary.
11:50This place doesn't belong to you, you stupid jerk.
11:53Hey, wait over there.
11:56Stupid jerk, damn junkie.
11:58He says don't walk this way.
11:59It doesn't belong to him.
12:01Hey, what is it, dirtbag?
12:04You're running loose.
12:05I'm running loose.
12:07Yeah, who else then?
12:09Really, that jerk's running loose.
12:11That prince.
12:14Get out of here.
12:15Sure, Karim, sure.
12:16Well, well.
12:17Well, well, Mr. Amir Tavakali.
12:19How are you?
12:20How's your father?
12:22Merci, he's fine.
12:23He's real upset about what happened to Mr. Tadayon.
12:26Oh, man.
12:27Well, if you'll excuse me.
12:28Oh, by the way, Amir,
12:30tonight I've invited my friends over for some fun.
12:33If you'd be interested to come over with your musical instrument
12:36and enlighten our party, it would be wonderful.
12:38Merci, thanks.
12:39But I don't play music at people's private parties.
12:45What?
12:47You mean you don't think we're worthy of it?
12:50Don't worry.
12:52I'll pay for your service.
12:54Thanks again.
12:55But I want you to know that not everyone who plays music
12:58plays at people's private parties.
13:00I'm sorry.
13:02And I want you to know that I just threw three people in jail for three days
13:06because of you.
13:06This isn't the way you should be repaying me.
13:08Mr. Vatan Paras, believe me.
13:11I promised my father I won't go to these sorts of places.
13:14I'm sorry again, sir.
13:18Then don't forget, mountains don't ever meet, but people do.
13:21Goodbye now.
13:26Hey, bro.
13:27What do you mean, bro?
13:28Huh?
13:28I've told you to call me Vatan Paras in public.
13:31See how brash you've become only because we drank together.
13:33I'm sorry, Mr. Vatan Paras.
13:35It's about the coins.
13:37Shh.
13:37Quiet down, man.
13:39Go get blind Nasser, Shivering Ibrahim,
13:41Gavam the drum, and tell them to come to my house tonight.
13:44Tell them I'll pay them well.
13:48Hey, Mr. Vatan Paras.
13:50Huh?
13:51You having a pie?
13:52Yeah.
13:54Then you're real generous and courageous.
13:57All right, don't talk so much nonsense.
13:58Go do what I asked.
13:59Okay.
14:00I'm going.
14:02Karim, bro, hello.
14:04You here?
14:04What?
14:09All right, go.
14:10I'll come later.
14:10I'm going.
14:25No, no, no, no.
14:26You have to change this part.
14:28Merci.
14:30I...
14:31What is it?
14:33Are you upset?
14:35The truth is I'm really upset.
14:37How come?
14:39I saw that jerk on my way here.
14:42That jerk?
14:43You mean Karim?
14:45Yeah, Karim.
14:47He's become so brash, he told me to go and play at his party.
14:51Well, what did you say?
14:53I said I've sworn I won't play in people's private parties.
