Prophet Jacob guides the Israelites to pray to the One and Only God. God annunciates to him about the next prophet, who will be from his own generation. One night, his son, Joseph, dreams about the sun, the moon and eleven stars which kneel in front of him. He tells Jacob, who advises him not to tell his brothers about the dream. Prophet Joseph is dear to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike. For centuries, the story of his life has been told over and over in many different ways and in many different languages. This is the Iranian version of a very beloved story.

00:00Well done. It's delicious. What's your secret?
00:22It is the same as always, Your Excellency. Only a little happiness and honesty have been added.
00:34Tell me, do happiness and honesty really make food tastier?
00:40That is because of the magnanimity and the favorable opinion of my lord and lady.
00:46Why were not the happiness and honesty here before?
00:49Because Yusasif wasn't here before.
00:52Yusasif, is there some sorcery you use that attracts others to you so much?
01:06Sorcery?
01:09No, my lady. What is sorcery?
01:13He uses kindness and affection. He doesn't need sorcery.
01:17As of tomorrow, in addition to being in the kitchen, Yusasif can be our table-decker, too.
01:26And he does not know what I do.
01:29¶¶
01:31¶¶
01:35¶¶
01:39What's the matter?
02:09I worked very hard to become Potiphar's table-decker.
02:15I tolerated slavery and hard work for many years simply to catch Potiphar's attention.
02:22And now a child, a shepherd Hebrew, ruins everything as soon as he arrives.
02:28Yusar Sif is blameless. Potiphar makes decisions. Yusar Sif is not allowed to disobey Potiphar.
02:36What should I do?
02:40Now they will send me to work on a hot farm. Or to work in a stone mine.
02:46I suggest you talk to Yusar Sif about it.
02:49You could talk to Hanifer as well. Perhaps there is a solution to this.
02:55Clear the dishes.
02:59Are you just going to stand there? Help us!
03:15As of now, Yusar Sif is the table-decker of Excellency Potiphar. It's not my right to interfere.
03:24Have I done something to upset you?
03:26You don't know? Everything is ruined because of you.
03:31If you only knew how hard I worked to become Potiphar's table-decker.
03:40They will send him to work on the farms or the stone mines.
03:46May God forgive me. Forgive me if I've hurt you unknowingly. I'll try to make up for it. Please don't worry.
04:03Please don't worry.
04:13Lady Zelenka approaches.
04:28Excellency Kofo wishes to see me.
04:31It is sad indeed, my lady, that it is up to a mere child to decide how the temple is run.
04:42I think the news you have been given has been exaggerated.
04:47This little child and his behavior indicates his animosity towards our gods.
04:55Do not give him responsibility over Potiphar's palace.
04:59Yusar Sif is a child. What animosity can he have towards our gods?
05:05You are aware of my belief in gods?
05:09An enemy of the gods will have no place in my palace.
05:12Lady Zelenka is one of the goddesses in Amon Temple and one of Amon's wives.
05:19We expect more from you than from the others.
05:22Yusar Sif does not yet know the gods are temples.
05:26You had better tell this to Excellency Potiphar as well.
05:30Very well.
05:31Your Excellency, did you give permission to a child to decide the food portions of the palace residence?
05:46Yusar Sif simply reads the number of helpings from the papyrus we have given him.
05:55We used only his ability to read and write. Nothing more.
05:59Then why did he prevent the taking of the temple share yesterday?
06:03Yusar Sif simply questioned why the five people in the temple require twenty helpings of food.
06:10We also have the same question.
06:15And the priests objected to that.
06:17It wasn't a lack of respect for the gods or the priests.
06:22What is it to a child?
06:25The temple wants to take the gods and servants' share together.
06:30Who has been allowing the temple servants to eat both their share and gods' share?
06:37Why must the temple servants become obese like you?
06:41And yet the other palace residents weak and thin?
06:44Excellency Potiphar, you are comparing us with the slaves and servants.
06:52We are the servants of Amon, the god of Egypt's gods.
06:58The palace residents, too, are the servants of Amon and their own lord.
07:05The difference seems to be that the palace servants try hard to please their lord.
07:14And the temple priests seem to do very little for their gods.
07:20But eat and gain copious amounts of weight.
07:23I will report this insult to Ankh-Mah-Hu, the highest priest of Amon Temple.
07:24I will report this insult to Ankh-Mah-Hu, the highest priest of Amon Temple.
07:28I will report this insult to Ankh-Mah-Hu, the highest priest of Amon Temple.
07:29I will report this insult to Ankh-Mah-Hu, the highest priest of Amon Temple.
07:37I will report this insult to Ankh-Mah-Hu, the highest priest of Amon Temple.
07:44Although we love you, Zarif...
07:50...we mustn't defend the priests of Amon Temple because of him.
07:54It's not because of you, Zarif!
07:56Behavior of the priests in the temple is unbearable, my Lady.
07:57the priests of Amon Temple because of him.
08:01It's not because of you Zarsif.
08:04Behavior of the priests in the Temple is unbearable, my lady.
08:12Excellency Potiphar and Ladies Olaika,
08:15your dispute is not my concern.
08:19But as goddess in Amon Temple,
08:21I plan to raise you Zarsif
08:25so that he will become Amon's worshipper,
08:29not Amon's enemy.
08:55Greetings to the high priest of Amon Temple.
09:00Excellency Potiphar-
09:10Excellency Potiphar-
09:12Excellency Potiphar-
09:13Greetings to the High Priest of Amon Temple,
09:24Excellency Ankh-Mahou.
09:27I'm listening. What is it?
09:30I am here to beg the High Priest to exempt me
09:34from serving in the temple in Potiphar's palace.
09:39Why? What is the problem?
09:43Amon and the priests of Amon Temple are insulted in Potiphar's palace.
09:50They are infidels, especially Potiphar, who is the least faithful of them all.
09:59You still haven't answered. What has happened?
10:04A Hebrew child by the name of Uzarsif objects to Amon and the priests of Amon Temple.
10:10He instigates everybody against us and ridicules us in public.
10:16I will not return to Potiphar's palace.
10:19So it's a child who frightens you.
10:22I thought you considered Potiphar and Amenhotep the enemies of the temple.
10:27I didn't know you were no match for a ten-year-old child.
10:30He is no ordinary child.
10:32Stop it. Stop it. Shut up.
10:35You should not have left the palace.
10:38Return immediately before it is discovered.
10:43We need you in Potiphar's palace more than here.
10:47We were contemplating the ousting of Amenhotep,
10:51the mighty pharaoh of Egypt.
10:53And now, one of our greatest priests
10:59has been defeated by a small child
11:03and run away.
11:05Don't stand here. Go!
11:07Go!
11:07Go!
11:07Go!
11:09Go!
11:11Go!
11:12Go!
11:13Go!
11:14Go!
11:15Go!
11:17Go!
11:18Go!
11:19Go!
11:20Go!
11:21Go!
11:22Go!
11:23Go!
11:23How beautiful he is.
11:36It's like an angel.
11:44He looks like an angel.
11:46He does.
11:46That's it.
11:47I see.
11:48Oh.
11:48Yes.
11:49Yes.
11:50Beautiful.
11:51Yes.
11:51I'd heard, but I...
11:53He is so beautiful.
11:55Why don't you get your food?
11:59He looks like an angel.
12:01He does.
12:01The table looks beautiful.
12:17Oh.
12:17Um...
12:17Mohammed.
12:18That's it.
12:19hmm...
12:19And...
12:19Wil...
12:19Bill...
12:20I'm going to die.
12:20And then there's another Rickie...
12:21To the wall...
12:22Oh.
12:22It's such a beautiful...
12:23What Jim?
12:24Look.
12:24What...
12:25somebody's looking at...
12:25He's about to me about to find a school.
12:25The table looks beautiful.
12:32Did you set the table, Yusasif?
12:37Samani taught me.
12:40Yusasif is very smart.
12:43Yusasif has undoubtedly perfected what he has learned.
12:48The beauty of this table excites me.
12:51I feel that I could eat an elephant.
12:55Thank you, Yusasif.
13:02Is the young Yusasif able to read storybooks?
13:08I have also learned amazing stories from my father.
13:13All right.
13:15As of tonight, you read me stories.
13:18Stories?
13:20Excellency Potiphar always listens to stories before he goes to bed.
13:25The one who reads me stories now does not amuse me anymore.
13:34You don't answer, Yusasif.
13:36Your Excellency, what will happen to your current book reader?
13:43Sufer, you'll do something else.
13:48I've caused Hoyer to lose his job.
13:52I don't want Sufer to lose his job, too.
13:54Can I request something from Excellency Potiphar?
14:02Your caring attitude impresses me greatly.
14:06Are you wanting to ask me to give Hoyer and Sufer better jobs?
14:10Or to return them to their previous jobs.
14:16I don't want to hurt people or endanger their position.
14:22Don't worry.
14:23I will tell Honifer to give Hoyer and Sufer better jobs.
14:28As of today, you will be my librarian and book reader.
14:34I thought Excellency Potiphar gave Yusasif to me as a present.
14:39But he seems to enjoy Yusasif's company just as much.
14:43If you do not agree, Yusasif won't do anything.
14:47Yusasif will do whatever the lord of this house wills.
14:57He must always be very grateful and never take advantage of your kindness.
15:07I will always be grateful to my god.
15:17Come with me.
