"To my brother Mohamed, to Zabia Guessab and all the others..." "You're beautiful." "Let's go." "We're waiting." "Maybe a pupil has a brother to marry." " You're unbelievable." "Come on kids, hurry up!" "Prepare your students and line them up over here." "Come over here, Madam." "I don't want my kids to become orphans for a photo." "It's not an execution." "I'm lucky my husband even lets me work." "Never mind, I'll take her place." " It's not an execution." "Slowly, don't get me all muddled." "So, how much?" " 90,000." "And this is 45,000." "I have wonderful shoes for you!" "Italian, American, French..." " I want Algerian." "Here you are..." "And how much are these?" "25,000"." "So, sister, are you taking them?" "They get things for free!" " I'll give you my eyes too." "Keep your eyes for your wife." " 25,000"." "Put them in a bag." "90,000 and 20,000 for these." "This is a school, not a market!" "Next time, you'll be fired." "Sorry Ma'am, I won't do it again." "I promise, it's the last time." "Locally made!" " It's less expensive." "A few nails and it's taken care of." "The water's coming... quick!" " I'm tired of collecting water!" "Younes, are you waiting for the Night of Destiny?" "I'm on duty." "I'm watching the neighbourhood." "You're not armed!" "I have a loud voice and this..." "Be careful." "Last time you threw stones at the police." "As of midnight..." "The first person who comes into the neighbourhood..." "Will go to the cemetery!" "To hospital!" "The water!" "Get up, Rachida!" "I'm making coffee for this poor man." "With range-flower water." "He deserves it." "Yesterday, terrorists attacked a man in the casbah." "Six soldiers were killed in an ambush in east Algiers." "They were surprised by a home-made bomb." "And now the rest of the news..." "Have a nice day, Rachida." "Hello." "Is it not enough for you that we are holding up your walls?" "Sofiane!" " Here, take this." "Take it to the school." " No!" "No, Sofiane!" "Stop!" "Take it." " No!" "Are you taking it to school?" "Not school!" "Not the children!" "Get a car!" "A car!" "A car!" "My daughter!" "My daughter!" "Let me through!" "She's alright." "Let me through!" "Please!" "It's my daughter!" " I know it's your daughter." "What did they do to her?" "Aren't we miserable enough already?" "What is this religion that allows them to kill people?" "Careful..." "Gently." "Be careful." "Gentle, gentle..." "This is as far as you can come." "Madam, go home." "The girl who was shot yesterday!" " Why?" "Is this a police station?" "Have you seen her?" " No." "They didn't say anything?" " I haven't seen her..." "The police say it was a former pupil who shot her." "You're still here?" "Go and get some sleep." "It's her fault." "I told her to stop working." "What are we going to do now?" "It's ok." "She's coming round." "Sofiane..." "Calm down." "Calm down, you're out of danger." "The bomb..." "It didn't blow up." "Thanks to you." "Mom!" "Mom!" "She is here, she's coming." "Show her mother in." "Sorry, we only have one blouse." "I'm her fiancé." " Sorry." "Be strong, Madam." "I'm sorry." "Please, we need the blouse." "Here, madam." "Come in, brother." "I have a blouse." " Put it here." "Where will I go?" "Where will I go with my daughter?" "It's me, Tahar." "Don't worry, I'm with you now." "Tell me." "What should I do?" "Don't worry." "I'm going to find a safe place." "It's here?" "I'm dropping you off." "I have to return before nightfall." "Your belongings are already here." "Mom..." "Do you think that two women can go unnoticed in a village?" "I'll hire a couple of men in the market." "And I can always grow a moustache..." "Pull yourself together, my daughter." "No one knows what happened to you here." "If we stay locked up, we'll look suspicious." "Will we depend on Yasmina all our life?" "Who's that?" "She's been at Yasmina's for a month." "Nothing escapes you." "The scent of women invades my senses like musk." "Hey, listen..." "You dropped this." " You scared me." "It's big." "The smaller ones are tastier." "I can make it tender for you." "She had you!" "I'm going to go crazy!" "Where can I go and hide?" "I'm in exile in my own country." "A terrorist." "A terrorist." "I went out to get some fresh air." "I come back, scared to death." "Courage is fear's child, my girl." "I am afraid of my own shadow." "I'm so scared." "So scared..." "The scent of fig trees bewitches me." "I could spend the rest of my life smelling them." "There was a fig tree at your father's house." "The whole neighbourhood smelt of it." "I liked to doze off in the shade of this fig tree." "But one day, your father decided to remarry." "I left the house and the fig tree." "I was young." "I didn't think I'd suffer so much without a man." "People are cruel." "I wanted to become the shadow of my own shadow." "I couldn't escape the malicious gossiping." "Even if a divorcee is a saint, she's always a divorcee." "You never told me that." ""If I told you of my sorrows, I'd fill a thousand books." ""If I told you of my sorrows, the sea would break into a storm." ""If I told you of my grief, the mountains would roar." ""If I told you of my sadness, the mute would find their voices..."" "Son of a bitch!" "Finally, I've got you!" "You dirty son of a bitch!" "Calm down!" "Hassen!" "Give me your hand." "Look, Mokhtar!" "My phone number is tattooed on his hand." "He's always harassing my daughter!" "Let me break his face!" "Massacre him." "With only one payphone here, sure he got you!" "I'll phone from hell if I have to." "I'll marry your daughter!" "Shut up, you sissy." "Next time I'll tear you to pieces!" "He's in love with her." "There's nothing you can do." "There's no use in fighting!" "Is my daughter the only girl in the village?" "She's to be married soon." "Instead of calming down, he goes nuts!" "Get her married, then it'll be taken care of." "Why did you stop me?" " Forget about it." "He is in love!" "Hello, how are you?" "Your transfer." "You're going to work here." "You have not recovered yet." "One of you has to work." "You think you can get a job?" " Why not?" "All my life, I've slaved." "I'm not afraid!" "Look at my hands!" "I'd tear my food from the lion's mouth if I had to." "You wanted me to get out!" "He who's bitten by a snake will always be afraid of a rope." "The State claims that terrorism is coming to an end." "It's a country of miracles." "Even Solomon wouldn't understand!" "You took all the change!" "Each coin is a dream." "Son, you have to dream correctly." "Only nightmares are free of charge in this country." "Does the director know anything?" " Nobody is aware of anything." "I'm wearing your mother's clothes." "You can use anything in the house." "When she goes to Algiers for her check-up," "I'll get some things from home." "I'm not going to Algiers." " You're coming to my house." "I'm not going!" "I brought you this." "And this..." "Tahar is worried." "I don't want to put him in danger..." "The bodies of eleven Trappist monks of Tibhirine, kidnapped by terrorists, have been found at the entrance of the city of Medea." "The assassination of these monks by the terrorists adds to the brutal murder of 80 muftis, imams and muezzins." "The Christian community and the inhabitants of the region followed the funeral procession to the monastery." "Not even the monks are safe." " A new massacre in Mitidja." "22 people had their throats cut and 4 girls were kidnapped." "Where was all this hate buried?" "This cruelty, this barbarity?" "These hearts deserted by all humanity." "From time immemorial, there has never been so much crime." "I could scream!" " Be careful, Rachida." "Hate always breeds revenge." "That's what I'm afraid of." "All I wanted was to live..." "You escaped." "You think so?" "Some have lost their entire family." "How can I be quiet when there is so much suffering!" "Raped women!" "Babies with slit throats!" "I want to shout out in anger!" "Forgive." "Who?" "Me?" "For keeping silent?" "For the State who humiliates our youth?" "Did the men who shot me apologise?" "I'm alive, I can still forgive them." "Go ask the dead if they can forgive!" "God wanted this." " Stop it!" "God is innocent of all the crimes that men commit in his name." "We're creating a culture of hate." "It will never end then, will it?" "What future are we leaving for our children?" "Hurry!" "Get inside!" "Quick, quick!" "Go home." "It's dangerous." "When she hears gunshots, she goes outside." "It's a Kalashnikov." " No, a Seminov." "It's a sawn-off shotgun." " Are you a specialist?" "She's their supplier." " You little shit!" "Bastard!" "Tomorrow, I'll have you!" "We're getting old, old lady!" "I miss the children." "Longing is easier than misfortune." "What kind of life would they have here?" "Those that live here..." "Are they dogs?" "They're... they are alive." "This will protect you." "This will protect me from demons or from women?" "You still get red as a lion!" "I only get red in front of my lioness!" "I'm not afraid of you hunting gazelles, but of that mouth of yours!" "God gave us words to express ourselves." "You leave the capital to come teach in the middle of nowhere?" "Don't kids have the right to go to school here?" "Yes." "But a young and beautiful single woman..." "When do I start?" "Your class is waiting." "After you..." "I'm warning you, if she complains, you'll have to deal with me!" "My name is Rachida." "Does anyone have any questions?" "You're from the capital?" " How do you know that?" " Everyone knows!" "I saw you in my dad's shop." "Is Algiers really a white city, like they say on TV?" "If you can go to school, eat as much as you want, and live in peace, then a city is white." "But a city where injustice reigns, where there is poverty, and no prospects for a future is a black city." "Tell me your names." "Yahyaoui Salim." "Yahyaoui Yasmine." " Yahyaoui Benyoussef." "Are you married?" "I don't have the money to buy a husband." "Why don't you cover your head?" " The doctor says I shouldn't." "God commands us to cover our heads." "God is merciful..." " His punishments severe." "Only to those who substitute themselves for him." "Don't listen to her." "What is your name?" "Are you new?" "Welcome." "Buy a cell phone with your bonus." " I'm in love, not crazy." "They're coming!" "Mokhtar, it smells like trouble, let's go." "I'm not moving." "They don't scare me." "Do you want to get your throat slit?" "Get up!" "It's not fair!" "If you don't shut your mouth..." "Go on..." "Kill me." "You talk too much..." "You haven't paid me yet." "You have to hide them, like this." "So, you were scared to death?" "You call yourself courageous!" "We're going to a wedding at our neighbour's." "It'll be fun!" "What's the matter now?" "You don't like the school?" "Yes, I like it." "What is it?" " A roadblock." "We're going to die!" "I knew it!" "I'm never going to Algiers." "Don't be afraid, Rachida, calm down." "Don't be scared..." "Easy..." "Don't move!" "Take them to the wadi." "Come here." "On the floor!" "Look at me!" "You're lucky." "It's healing well." "It's the wound in my head that doesn't heal." "I'm still scared." " It's post-traumatic psychosis." "The whole country suffers from it." "Do you think I'm not afraid?" "I'm terrified they'll murder me in front of my kids." "Come back in six months." "And give it time." "You're right." "What did she prescribe?" " Patience." "There's someone else who's been very patient." "How are you?" "Are you ok?" "What's wrong?" "You didn't expect to see me here!" "I missed you." "I missed you." "Why didn't you give me any news?" "It's not my fault." "It's mine, then." "Let's find a quiet place." "Then you can tell me everything." "Seawater is good against bad luck." "The whole country needs to be sprayed." "Here we go again." "Don't spoil this short moment of happiness." "I want to understand why Sofiane chose me." "Try to forget..." "You know, I love you." "Look at me." "I love you..." "I don't want to lose you." "I also want to live." "I'm coming alive again." "Because of the bathroom or Tahar?" " Oh, shut up!" "Give me something to drink." "I'm dying of thirst." "My throat is all dry." "I've come back from hell." "Give me something to drink." "You thought the house had gone?" " No, burgled." "The neighbourhood's become dangerous." "Everyone's suspicious." "Our neighbour joined the terrorists." "Poor Younes has disappeared." "Apparently, he was kidnapped by them." "I threw myself into the lion's den." "You went to the flat, not to the front." "We had nothing to wear for the wedding." "Here is your dress." "Help me, Yasmine." "I brought you these." " I hope he nailed them." "Why are you all here now?" "Yesterday, when we called for help, nobody came!" "Nobody took pity on us!" "And now you are all here!" "Go back home, we don't need you anymore." "Don't blame them." "Fear is only human." "So is courage..." "The fire is getting closer." "I brought what you asked for." " Thank you!" "This is beautiful." " This must be that pain Khaled." "Give me the phone." "Give it to me." "Give me the telephone!" "A little decency..." "If your father finds out, he'll kill us both!" "Is it my fault that he calls?" "If only you knew." "He's going around with a bag full of change." "Are they your kids?" "No, their father was a terrorist." "He's dead." "Their mother is in prison." "It's time to pray." "Those kids who hang out in the neighbourhood..." "Their parents are terrorists." "You don't choose your parents." "Will your father's photo always haunt me?" "We need a man in the house." "God is the only god, and Mohammed is his messenger..." "I want to talk to Hadjar." "Have a joint." " It'll do you some good!" "Stop giggling." "We're eating!" "Eat, my girl." "Are you tired?" "This doesn't sound good." "It's them." "Hide and say your prayers." "What do you want from us?" "We are poor, we haven't done anything wrong." "If you want, take the sheep." "I want your daughter, not your sheep." "Why can't I have your daughter?" "Because I'm out of work?" "Is love a sin in this country?" "It's you again!" "Bastard!" "You trifle with my honour late at night?" "I swear, if I catch you, I'll kill you." "If you ever set foot in my house again," "I'll cut you into pieces." "Nobody will be able to do anything for you!" "Son of a...!" "Leave me alone!" "My God!" "I love her!" "Go to hell!" "Auntie!" "Auntie Zohra..." "It's the girl they kidnapped." "Let me in!" "Don't touch me." " Don't be afraid." "You have nothing to fear..." "Leave her be." "Go." "Salim's aunt..." "His aunt..." "Don't talk about it in front of your father or his friends." "Everyone knows!" "Be quiet, my girl." "Go play with your brother." "Mom!" "Oh my God, my daughter..." "It's nothing." "Go back to sleep." "She's no longer my daughter." "I don't want her." "I'd rather she be dead!" "Be reasonable." "She'll stay with me, there's nothing to fear here." "She has humiliated us in front of the neighbours, in front of all the families." "She has dishonoured us, I don't want anything to do with her." "May God help you." "She's no longer my daughter!" "She's my sister." "Don't be afraid." "I'll take care of you." "Are you okay?" "It's no wonder that she falls." "She's always looking up at the sky." "Come by my house tonight." "Men don't like scars." "One day, I'll go to the moon." "Why the moon?" " It looks like... it's smiling at me." "Get good marks and later you can go to the moon." "My father won't let me." "I'll have to help my mom." "Keep on growing, I'll talk to your dad." "No, I don't want to grow up." "They're coming for her." " Who?" "The soldiers." "I'm not going." " It's for questioning." "The others were dressed like them." "We'll be there, don't be afraid." "Don't be afraid." "I'm coming with you." "I found them in my backyard." "I found them in the forest." "That's from an automatic rifle, that's a Kalashnikov." "No, a sawn-off shotgun." "No, an automatic rifle and a Kalashnikov." "Let me see!" " Go to your aunt." "Leave him alone!" " Stop!" "Now go to class!" "Here, this is for your aunt." "She didn't do anything." "It was the others." "It was them..." "They kidnapped her." "They raped her." "But she escaped." "TODAY'S LESSON:" "It's for you." "I know who it is." "It's for my cut." " Come in." "Are you still looking at the moon?" "Come." "Once upon a time, in the land of Cham, there lived a princess named Emerald." "She lived in a beautiful palace." "Her face was of pure crystal and her lips red like a pomegranate." "Her eyes shone like the stars." "One summer evening, she went for a walk in the garden, among the roses and the jasmine." "She bent down to drink from a spring, and saw the moon's reflection in the water." "And on this moon lived a shepherd, so handsome, that Emerald fell in love and wanted to marry him." ""But where will the wedding take place?"" ""On the moon!"" ""On the moon?" "We can't go to the moon!"" ""Those who love me" ""will climb the golden rope hanging from the moon."" "Emerald is smiling at me from the moon?" "No, it's her son." "What are you doing?" " I'm looking at the moon." "Come on, go back home." "Bring me the pliers, I'm burning in this sun!" "Wait..." "You've been sharpening it forever." "I don't need the pliers anymore." "It's a sheep's throat, not an elephant." "Here's the water." "Give it to me." "Catch it!" "Rachida isn't coming to the bath?" " She's at school." "Stop." "You want trouble?" "Why hurt yourself so?" "It's not your fault." "Then why doesn't my father want me?" "Why don't they get rid of this?" " It's a sin." "The sin is what she's going through and what her child will have to go through." "He's innocent." "Give him to me, I'll adopt him." "You missed the bride's bath." "So everyone can see my scar and take it for a Caesarean?" "Imagine the rumours!" "You look beautiful." "You think it's your face he's interested in?" "On my wedding night, in the blink of an eye it was all over." "Be quiet." " Children, outside!" "Come on, get out." "I didn't have time to see his face." "He was already outside." "He was waving around my nightgown proving his virility." "Later I realised he only had one eye." " Men have no faults." "Another invention of men." "You're not wearing your blue dress?" "It brings back too many memories." "This one looks lovely too." "Stop!" "Silence!" "Kids, go find your mothers!" "The party's over." "It's them!" "Take your children and go inside." "The party is over!" "Don't scream." "Don't forget your children!" "Stop screaming!" "Open up!" "Mom!" "Spare the prettier ones for me." "Find the new teacher." "Pray for his soul, my daughter." "Leave me alone." "He died for me." "He died protecting me." "Come, I'll take you home." "Let me cry, I just buried him." "I can't leave you here in this hell." "Father!" "Hell is in my heart!" "I'm going to leave my fig tree again." "Where are the others?" "Take out your slates." "TODAY'S LESSON:" "Adaptation:" "SUBS Hamburg" "Subtitling by TVS" " TITRA FILM"
