An old lady who owns an apartment complex decides to rent it to several young couples who she is led to believe are calm, quiet, and harmless. But when her ‘harmless’ tenants eventually arrive and settle down, she realizes that she's gotten more than she bargained for.

00:21If you want it, you have to hurry, all right?
00:23Yeah, why is that?
00:24Isn't that obvious?
00:25Before you know it, the apartments will be filled with new tenants,
00:27and then there'll be none left for you.
00:30It's not as if the tenants can just barge in here and take up residence.
00:33I'm the one in charge of finding new tenants, you know, after all.
00:36Nayere had some ideas about this place.
00:41Nayere? What is it to her, huh?
00:43And by the way, Mr. Jamali asked me to send you his regards.
00:47Who is Jamali?
00:48You know, Kamali's brother, Darabad.
00:52Kamali's brother cannot be Jamali. That doesn't sound right.
00:54He's trying to say something to distract me.
00:56There, you see that? You see, she's been in Tehran for just one day,
00:59and she knows Jamali cannot be Kamali's brother.
01:02You tell her to keep her nose out of my business or else I don't know what I'm going to
01:05do, okay?
01:06What has she done to upset you anyway?
01:07Nothing. Make her understand that this house has a proper steward,
01:11and finding tenants for the house is this steward's job, not hers.
01:13Tell me now. So you're going to be paid as a steward while we do all the work?
01:16No, sir. You better stop your wife right now. Otherwise, I'm going to have to set her straight.
01:20Like hell.
01:21Well, she's right, you know. She's right. Can't we just choose our neighbors ourselves?
01:24I mean, what if we go and fill this house with a bunch of good-for-nothing thugs?
01:27We're going to live here after all, right?
01:29I mean, the thing is, my wife is going to be here all the time, you know?
01:32Sir, stop talking nonsense, or I might just lose my temper and kick you right out of here, huh?
01:37Hey, don't talk to my husband like that.
01:38I'll do whatever I want to, and if you don't like it, you can leave then. Go!
01:42All right, all right. He's lost. Just get back to your wife, please.
01:43How can I get back to work when a stranger is standing right in the middle of my house, biting
01:47my head off?
01:48Just get out of my house.
01:49Come on.
01:49You've just arrived in Tehran, and you already dare to claim that this house is yours just like that, huh?
01:54You just wait and see.
01:55I will move to this house and find tenants for the other apartments as well.
01:59I can take care of Ms. Zamane's errands, and she doesn't need to pay her still.
02:03Nasser!
02:04Stop your wife now. I'm warning you.
02:06Why didn't you hit me, man?
02:07Eh? Because I can't beat up a woman. I'm not that low like you are.
02:10I would never let you beat up my wife.
02:11He wouldn't dare.
02:13Get out. Get out of here. I said get out right now.
02:16Nasser, beat him up.
02:17All right, all right, but how?
02:18Use this!
02:19I said get out of here.
02:19All right, get out of my house. Go on.
02:20You get out. You wouldn't dare hit me.
02:22Oh, I wouldn't dare.
02:23You better not.
02:23Listen, my dear, I found a really good tenant.
02:26You want some of this? You want some of this?
02:28Here, take that.
02:29Uh-huh.
02:32Look, I can't hear you very well.
02:35Yes, yes.
02:37All right.
02:38Look, honey, I'll call you back very soon, okay?
02:41Okay? Goodbye.
02:43You come back here. You come back here and get out.
02:46You're going to get to me a little punk.
02:47I'll see where you're going.
02:48What's going on down there?
02:49He's killing my husband.
02:51Who's killing him?
02:52Muscled. He's beating him black and blue.
02:54All right, but why?
02:54I really don't know.
02:56He suddenly showed up saying he's your steward and we have to listen to everything he says.
03:00I see.
03:00And then he started a fight with Nasser telling us to leave this house.
03:03Ma'am, if you want us to leave, you only need to say it.
03:06There's no need to go this far.
03:07Don't be upset. I'll take care of it immediately. Come on.
03:10Get out of my house.
03:10Get out of my house.
03:11Nasser, you better get out right now.
03:13This is my house.
03:14Nasser, you're regretting, my friend.
03:15Get out of my house.
03:16Get out of here.
03:16I'm telling you now.
03:17Nasser, get out.
03:18Don't make me regret our friendship, you.
03:19Oh, yeah.
03:20You're going to beat me?
03:20Oh, yeah.
03:21Go ahead.
03:21Do it if you dare, huh?
03:22You beat me?
03:23That's right.
03:34Uh, hello, ma'am.
03:35Get out.
03:38Me?
03:38I said get out.
03:40You see, is this what you wanted?
03:41To make me some kind of kick you out?
03:43I kept asking you nicely to leave, but you didn't leave.
03:45Why are you standing around?
03:46Go on, get out.
03:47Oh, ma'am, there's nothing left to do out there.
03:49I already asked a keymaker to come by and change the locks.
03:51I hired some workers to take care of the roof,
03:52and the only thing left to do is find three tenants.
03:54That's it.
03:55I will find them for you.
03:56All of you, get out.
03:58You want us to get out, too?
03:59Oh, yes?
04:00I misjudged, Dashti.
04:01The poor man was an angel compared to you,
04:03and I'm not joking.
04:04She's joking around with us.
04:06Come on.
04:07I'm dead serious, I'll tell you.
04:09Get out.
04:10I want to lock the door now.
04:11Well, ma'am, I mean, the thing is,
04:12you should have said that sooner.
04:13I mean, we've been cleaning this place for hours now.
04:15How much does a worker get paid?
04:16Go ahead and take it and leave right now.
04:18Ma'am, I'm right here.
04:19I'll pay them myself,
04:20and you can pay me back afterwards.
04:21Get out of here now.
04:22Hey, don't you dare touch me, you idiot.
04:23There's no need for that.
04:24I don't want to see you ever again.
04:26Uh, ma'am, if you don't mind,
04:28let me clean the kitchen's cupboards quickly
04:30so that the new tenants won't find them dirty.
04:33I don't want any tenants at all.
04:35I'm not going to rent this house.
04:37Now get out of here.
04:40Hmm.
04:50You're such a backstabber.
04:54Shut it.
05:07We really messed up.
05:09It's a good thing it happened, you know?
05:11You'll think twice before you try to hit me next time.
05:13Yeah, but why did you go to Mizamana anyway?
05:15Because she wanted to discredit me
05:17and make her kick me out.
05:18That's why.
05:18Really?
05:19Yes.
05:20Yeah.
05:21It's interesting that there isn't one iota of gratitude
05:23in the both of you at all.
05:24Both of you betrayed me, huh?
05:26Well, what are we going to do now?
05:27Nothing.
05:28You go to Tajrish Square,
05:29take a taxi to the railway station,
05:31buy a ticket,
05:31and go back to your hometown,
05:32and goodbye.
05:34You know,
05:34I'm more upset for Mr. Masoud than for us.
05:37Why is that?
05:37Because you and I will find a place to live in sooner or later.
05:41But poor Masoud will never get another opportunity like this.
05:44Would you please stop feeling sorry for me now?
05:46I can sell socks on the streets of Tehran
05:48and still earn my living.
05:49No.
05:49We're here for you.
05:51We'll never let you sell socks in this town.
05:53Look here, ma'am.
05:53I was just giving an example, okay?
05:55If not socks, then coupons.
05:56If not coupons, then dollars.
05:57If not dollars, then sheep.
05:59Do they really sell sheep on the streets in Tehran?
06:01They even sell camels on the streets here.
06:04No, no.
06:05Mr. Masoud can't sink so low.
06:07Being a steward's more befitting of you.
06:08But you've ruined everything.
06:10You know what, man?
06:11It serves us right.
06:12We didn't deserve it.
06:13We don't deserve anything.
06:14Let's go.
06:15Go on.
06:20After you.
06:21Go on, go on.
06:33Eh?
06:34Why are you standing there then, huh?
06:36Go on already.
06:37You mean we should really let it go?
06:39Well, yeah.
06:40I mean, apparently we didn't deserve it.
06:42Perhaps God wants someone needier than us to get this place, my dear.
06:46Who can be needier than us?
06:48Why didn't we deserve it?
06:49Why are you shouting at me?
06:50All right, then.
06:51We simply have to accept our fate.
06:52Hey, look here now.
06:53Why didn't you stop shouting in front of other people's houses, would you?
06:56Take her hand and take her to her father's house and then come back.
06:59I don't want to go back anymore.
07:00What's that mean?
07:01That's it.
07:02It means I'm going to stay here and see what happens.
07:04What do you expect to happen?
07:05Go back to your father's house.
07:06When I'm done with my military service, I'll come over and do something about it.
07:09When will you be done with it?
07:10In two years?
07:11In four years?
07:13I won't go back to my father's house.
07:15They fight all the time and I'm tired of it.
07:17Ms. Nayar, now is not the right time to have this conversation.
07:19It's exactly the right time for this discussion.
07:21I am tired of this situation.
07:23Just rent a house here so we can live together.
07:26Where will I get the money for that, huh?
07:27You can get a job.
07:28Hey, this one simply won't learn how to listen, will she?
07:30That's right.
07:33Well, I'm staying right here until you tell me what's going to happen.
07:37What should I tell them when I go back?
07:38That it was all for nothing?
07:40All right, let's go.
07:41Stop embarrassing me.
07:41Get up, please.
07:42I'm not coming.
07:42I'm going now.
07:44Fine.
07:46Come on, come on, Nasser.
07:47Stop it.
07:48Hey, huh?
07:49Ms. Nayar, come on.
07:50Get up.
07:50Let's go.
07:52You think because I'm old you can trick me in like a child?
07:55Stop putting on an act for me and trying to look pitiful.
07:58And leave and hurry up about it.
08:00Go away.
08:01She was listening to everything we said.
08:04Tell me now.
08:05Why does she think that we were putting on an act for her, huh?
08:07Ma'am, do you really think we're sitting at your door and crying in order to make you pity
08:11us and give us one of your apartments?
08:13Seriously?
08:14Do we look so poor and helpless?
08:15Let's go, Nasser.
08:16No, why should we leave?
08:17I mean, now that it's come to this, I'll go look for a place to rent so that you won't
08:20think we are poor and helpless and homeless.
08:22Yes, yes.
08:23Ma'am, that's their personal opinion.
08:25Please notice that I said nothing of the sort.
08:27You're leaving?
08:29Give us a call if you ever come to our city.
08:32We sure will miss you.
08:36Hello.
08:36Hello, ma'am.
08:38Hello, ma'am.
08:44Hello, ma'am.
09:18Hello, ma'am.
09:21Hello, ma'am.
09:36Where do you think she's gone, huh? Any ideas?
09:39I don't know. Maybe she's gone out to find some tenants or something.
09:42No way. Didn't you hear her? She doesn't want either a steward or tenants.
09:47She's too fickle. She keeps changing her mind. You never know where you stand with her.
09:51Good thing she's not fickle.
09:52Why, dear?
09:53She might change her mind about us.
09:55Well, yeah, she'll do that for sure.
09:57She'll send a car over with flowers and a letter of apology begging us to go back to that house,
10:01and it's probably going to happen right now, huh?
10:05Well, I did say she was fickle, but not that much, huh?
10:08Eat up. We have to go.
10:10Go where? It might be someone else. Come on, I'll take care of it.
10:13Oh, come on. It's her.
10:24Hello, sir.
10:26Hello, Mr. Bauman. What are you doing here?
10:28The lady asked me to come and get you.
10:30Ms. Zaman is driving me crazy, I swear to you.
10:33One moment she kicks us out of her house,
10:35and the next moment she sends someone begging us to return to her house.
10:38I wonder what Dashti went through because of that woman. Man.
10:40Mr. Basu, please hurry and get ready.
10:42What's the rush, though? Let's go in and eat something before we leave.
10:45No, the traffic on the way to the police station is very heavy.
10:47The sooner we leave, the better.
10:49Why the police station?
10:50Someone must have filed charges against you.
10:52But who would do something like that?
10:54I have no idea. But please, hurry up and get ready.
10:57Okay. Okay, hold on a sec.
11:03What is it? Why have you changed your clothes, huh?
11:06Look here. From now on, we're going to be together.
11:08That's right.
11:09You don't take us out, we won't try to destroy you.
11:11Yes, man. Besides, Masood, bring your broom and dustpan with you,
11:14because I couldn't find a single one in such a big house. Isn't that right?
11:16Yes.
11:16Don't you worry. There are plenty of brooms where we're going, my friends.
11:20Bring blankets, too. It'll get cold in prison. Very cold indeed.
11:23Did you say prison?
11:24Yeah. We have to go to the police station to answer some charges.
11:27Who's pressed charges against us?
11:28Oh, I don't know. Must be Ms. Zemineh.
11:30On what grounds, man?
11:31For splashing her with water and soap, maybe. What do you think?
11:34You shouldn't go. There's no need to get involved with this.
11:37Really? He's the one who started it. Now you don't want him to come along, too? Fancy.
11:40Then I'll come with you, too.
11:41Why do you want to come?
11:43Someone should testify that it was Masood who splashed her with water and soap, not you.
11:47Right, right, right. You're right, you're right. You can come.
11:48Look here. I don't want you to come. No need. I'll go alone. You hear me? I don't want you.
11:51Don't worry, Mr. Masood.
11:53Yeah, man.
11:53Even if you're proven guilty, they'll just get her a bucket of water to throw at you. That's it.
11:57Yes, yes, yes, man. That's not a problem. Don't worry. We'll be by your side. Don't worry. Come on.
12:08Here you are, sir. This letter shows that she gave me power of attorney before going abroad. It's clearly stated.
12:14Are you saying I gave it to you so that you can fill my house with a bunch of charlatans?
12:18I accept the fact that I made a mistake. I thought I was doing you a favor.
12:24Well, if you accept your mistake as you say, then why are you here?
12:28Look, officer. I worked all my life for this woman and that apartment building.
12:33I've been in charge of all of her business since her dear husband died, and I didn't get any appreciation.
12:39You didn't do that for nothing. You were paid very well.
12:42But she doesn't have the right to fire me.
12:44Officer, I'm ready to sign a paper here and promise to find her the best tenants possible.
12:49To work diligently for her, as always.
12:52This lady doesn't want you to be her steward anymore. Why do you keep insisting on it?
12:57Listen to me, sir. I take pity on her because everybody is tricking her.
13:01Who are?
13:18This woman is extremely mature and smart.
13:22She can make whatever decision she wants. Your complaint is invalid.
13:28What do you mean it's invalid, officer?
13:30You can read her late husband's will, and you can see what's written there.
13:34It's written in black and white.
13:36It says that Mr. Dashti, that's me, that I will have to be her steward forever and ever.
13:41And that's what it's supposed to be.
13:42I find it my responsibility not to let her be tricked the way she's been tricked, officer.
13:47I'm not a kid to be fooled so easily. Who's going to trick me?
13:50Sir, a little child.
13:56Hello.
13:57Hello, ma'am.
14:00Hello, sir.
14:04Aye.
14:10So the moment I'm gone, Dashti shows up all of a sudden. Is that the game?
14:13Now, don't be cheeky.
14:15Well, you were saying?
14:16Well, I forgot what I was saying just before they came in.
14:19Excuse me, sir. Before I came in, I heard you say a little child.
14:24And who are you?
14:25Me? I'm, uh, Mr. Masood's wife's friend.
14:28No, no, no. You see, sir, she is Mr. Masood's friend's wife, you see.
14:32Um, yeah. These are Ms. Amane's new tenants, officer. Yes.
14:35Stop talking nonsense, sir. I am warning you.
14:38I'm still this lady's steward, and here I announce that whoever wants to live in that house has to come
14:43and see me first.
14:44Really? Ms. Amane, you reconciled with Mr. Dashti here? Is that it, huh?
14:47If you don't interfere, we will. Everything's going to be okay.
14:51What do you mean I shouldn't interfere?
14:53Well, why do you keep sticking your nose in our business?
14:55Yes. If I'm not involved here, then, officer, if I'm not involved in this case as I was led to
15:00believe, then what am I doing here anyway, huh? Tell me that.
15:02Officer, they should sign a paper and promise not to bother Ms. Amane anymore.
15:06Ma'am, have we been bothering you at all? Tell me. Yes or no. Tell us the truth.
15:10If we've been bothering you, I'll sign a paper right now not to do that anymore from here for the
15:14rest of my life, okay?
15:15Tell us your final word, ma'am. I'm really tired of this game.
15:18Look, sir, have him sign a paper and promise not to bother me or you ever again. That's all I
15:23want.
15:24Mr. Masood, come and sign this paper.
15:28Not him, no. I mean him.
15:30Eh? Why me?
15:32Because I want to cut your greedy hand out of that house.
15:41I don't want to hear another complaint related to that house. Do you understand?
15:44I don't know.
