"It was the day that.... ...Rabin, Arafat and Clinton shook hands in front of the White House" "We were all very excited.... ....with what was happening on that day !" "Palestinian kids were coming out of their houses, giving us olive branches" " How old were you back then ?" " In 1993 ?" "I was five" "Well, then, maybe you remember all that." "Maybe you were amongst the kids who were giving us olive branches" "What are you trying to prove with these games ?" " What games ?" " Do not pretend !" "Ever since you came out, you miss no opportunity to rub it on our face !" "Just because I invited my friend for a Sabbath dinner ?" "It has nothing to do with your friend !"

"Is he still handling this Goldman case ?" " Yeah, we'll close it in a while" "Good, nice !" "Well, on our subject....." "Roy told me on the phone that you have a free movement Pass in Israel" " Yes, a temporary Academic Pass" " OK....." "And your family......" "do they know about you ?" "Of course not !" "I understand !" "Look, we know this is a complicated case..." "We just want to know our options about a residence permit in Israel" "Most of the cases that I deal with, concern young Palestinian men..." "Their family kicked them out, they can't go back there and they're hiding here" "You act for them before the Authoritiies?" " Exactly" "What about political asylum here ?" "The status of political refugee for them is no option here" "Why ?" "It could create a legal precedent." "A "Law of Return" for Palestinians" "You were friends with Mustafa, right ?" "Yes" " I was very sorry to hear about him" " Thanks" "I tried to obtain a temporary residence permit for him, but..... ...it's time consuming and it includes house confinement in the meantime...." "In short.....it's a mess !" "Well, OK....for the time being Nimer is settled with his Pass and later on we'll see" "What "later on" ?" "We need to start the process today already !" "Do you really think they give out passes and free permits just like that ?" " I'm not referring to his Pass" " Roy !" "Look !" "A few years ago, things were much easier..." "In the Academic field too !" "It's impossible to foresee how quickly things change for the worse" " What's wrong ?" " A perfect waste of time !" "This ?" "With Daniel ?" " What did you expect he'll tell you ?" " What options we do have or do not have" "He could have told us all that over the phone !" "Roy be realistic !" "Nimer don't you understand that if we're not prepared, this will be our reality ?" "It's you who doesn't understand !" "I live in this shit every single day !" "If I could do anything to change things, do you think I wouldn't have done it ?" "Nimer, I am Israeli." "My father has connections here....there are options" "And I know the reality." "Even if we succeed, we won't change the system !" " So, you simply give up on us ?" " I'm not giving up on us !" "So what do you want ?" "Do you think I planned to fall in love with you ?" "I only want to be with you....." "I don't want anything more than that." "Nimer Mashrawi ?" "Nimer come on in !" "Sit !" "Thanks for coming." "Are you hungry ?" " No" " Good." "Let's go straight to our subject" "Your Academic Pass for Israel.... .....has expired !" "What does this mean ?" "You can't enter Israel any more" "What do you want from me ?" "I want you to help me ?" " Help you ?" "Listen....." "The Palestinian University Bir Zeit is very big" "Lot's of students and a lot of activity" "It won't be difficult for you....." "What do you think ?" "You're asking the wrong person" " There's also Nabil Mashrawi..." " What do you want from my brother ?" "Nimer.....?" " Do you like living in Tel Aviv ?" " What ?" "How will react your family, if they find out how you spend your nights here ?" "How I spend my nights ?" "Nimer......." "They will kill you instantly not just only for being gay...." "How long do you think you'll manage to survive from them....?" ".....if "by chance they suspect" that you work for us ?" "Nimer, you're not stupid....." "You seem like a decent lad....." "You're not like the rest of the losers that I handle.....junkies and whores" "This is a good deal for both of us" "Just a bit of information for a lot of freedom" "Go home and think about it" "I'll call you....." "Hey darling !" "Where are you ?" " At my home" " They've revoked my Pass" " How is this possible ?" "Why ?" "Your fucking government does not want me over there !" "Nimer, tell me what happened ?" "Roy, I don't know what to do...." "Everything will be alright !" "No more course, no more Tel Aviv...." "it's all over !" "Calm down !" "I'm sure there's a mistake" "What mistake ?" "Don't you get it ?" "That's it, it's finished !" "Nothing is finished, OK ?" "I will never see you again...." "Let me look into the matter....." " I can't really talk right now..." " Wait !" "Don't hang up !" " What ?" " I'll take care of that !" "I promise you !" "I can't think clearly right now" "I'll call you later" "What the hell are you doing ?" " Take the guns far from our house !" " Don't shout !" " These are not games !" " Have you lost you mind ?" "They know everything !" "They might come here any moment !" "Should I be worried ?" "If you haven't talked....." "they know nothing !" " You ruined our family !" " I....saved our family !" "Remember all the things you've been through !" "You ruined my life !" "My life !" "I'll break your hands next time !" "Get lost !" " You don't understand...." " I had enough of you !" " I can't stand him anymore !" " He's your brother" "Things will get better from now on !" "How do you mean ?" "Going to this infidel country was no good for you" " You know what this meant for me....." " I do..." "We'll overcome this together" " I have no one to talk to...." " Don't say that !" "I'm goin' in" ""Call me asap." "The man who loves you"" " I talked to Yossi, as you requested" " And what did he say ?" "He can't do anything, this is a national security matter" "What does this mean ?" "That they revoked his Pass for national security reasons" "Did you ask what these "reasons" are ?" " That's all he knew...." " Right" "Roy, how well did you know this lad ?" " Dad, cut it out, enough already !" "Even going to a prostest, is reason enough to brand him as "security risk" !" "But how did he get a Pass in the first place ?" "Because they wanted him in the course ?" "How do I know ?" "You'd agree with me though, that there is something fishy here" " Do you want a drink ?" " No" "Roy, do not forget where you live !" "What do you mean ?" "You know what cases we're handling" " So, you're worried about your firm ?" "I'm worried about you Roy !" "Do you ever think what you're doing ?" "Do you think about your future ?" " Your career ?" "No, I don't think about my career !" "I don't see how you'll succeed in your job, if you too are branded security risk" "Dad, this is my boyfriend that I'm talking about !" "If you don't want to help me, fine !" "Just give me Yossi's number" " Roy, stop acting like a child !" " OK !" " All is cool, dad !" " Roy !" "I'll take care of this on my own." "Thank you !" " Hello ?" " It's me...." " Is something wrong ?" " No...." "I just miss you terribly !" "I miss you too !" " What will happen with us ?" " I have no idea" "I'm thinking about our problem all the time" "Have you found out anything about your Pass ?" "No" " I think they'll never return it to me" " How do you know that ?" "I just know it" "I want you to know.... ...that no matter what happens, I love you !" "I love you too !" " Hi !" " It's good to see you" "We caught a guy who was hiding in Tel Aviv" "Have you interrogated him ?" "He had this with him !" " Let me see !" " Hold on !" " Do you recognize anybody ?" " The faggot we had caught...." "I'm talking about the one in the background...." "You see it with your own eyes...." "Does anybody else know ?" "Not yet !" "But you must act quickly" "You can't be sure of what our prisoner will tell under duress" " Are you alright ?" " Yes......" "You take care of that !" " I'm off now...." " Bye !" "How are you ?" "Why are you crying ?" "Why are you all gathered up here ?" "You tell us.....why are we all gathered up here ?" "What ?" "Enough !" "I'm sick of your lies !" "All this time in Tel Aviv, what where you doing there ?" "I want to hear it from you !" "Answer me !" "What shame have you brought upon our family ?" "You know that I was studying in Tel Aviv" " What's going on ?" " Answer to your mother !" "It's the truth !" "I was at professor Stein's course !" "Professor Stein ?" "Professor Shit !" "An arse professor !" "Were you whispering to him on the phone under your bed covers ?" " Answer !" " Let me explain it to you !" "It's not what you think...." "Where did you find this expensive wristwatch ?" "Answer !" "The watch you've been hiding in your rucksack.... ...and has the engraving about "Love" !" "Whom is it from ?" "Why hadn't you shown it to us ?" "It's from a fellow girl student" " Do not lie !" "It's not his fault !" "Haven't you thought about your own sister Abir, at all ?" " Answer !" " I'm sorry !" "If this thing leaks out, Abir is ruined !" "Mom I'm sorry !" "Abir you know that I would never harm you !" "Abir, look at me please !" " Get up !" "Get out of our house !" "Get lost !" " I didn't mean it !" "Stop whining !" "You brought shame upon us all !" " I need you !" " Didn't you hear what mom said ?" " I'm your brother !" " Get out !" " Mom I beg you !" " Out !" " Mom !" " Nabil !" "Shut up !" "I don't want the neighbours to hear you !" "Get out of the car !" "You wait here !" "Nabil please !" "Do you know what you've done to our family !" " I didn't mean it !" " Didn't you ?" "Whore !" "We'll never get rid of our shame !" " I'm sorry !" "Nabil ?" "I'm sorry !" "I beg you, don't !" "I should had killed you at home !" "How can you say that ?" "No !" "Don't !" " Do you see this tunnel ?" " Yes" "It ends at the other side of the border" "Follow it and do not ever come back here !" "Do you understand ?" "If you ever come back, you'll leave me no other choice....." "Do you understand me ?" " Say you do !" " I do understand you !" "Get inside !" "Tell mom....." "Nimer ?" "What are you doing here ?" "When did you come ?" "Are you drunk ?" "A little bit....." "What's wrong ?" "My family found out...." "It will be OK" "How are you feeling ?" "Terrible !" "It's difficult, right ?" "Well, here are the forms that you need to fill in....." "Since your family threw you out and as you were already a student here.... ...we'll apply for a residence permit in Israel." "But our chances are very slim" "OK" "Just a minute...." "This is time-consumming..... ....and even if he gets the permit it'll only be for 3, maximum 6 months !" "What will happen afterwards ?" "When you needed me to clear your shit I was good, right ?" "Give me a break !" "Leave it, leave it !" "I have another call" "Hello ?" "Yes, residence permit...." "I'd like to know how long it'll take to get one ?" "Yes, call me on me cellphone Thank you very much !" "It will be alright !" "I promise you !" "Israel will not let me stay here...."
