The British Briefcase revolves around politics, patriotism and betrayal. It is the story of the old and the new. A young lawyer fresh from Europe arrives in his hometown; he is decided to make a difference by running for parliament elections. He has to compete with a rich and powerful lord and his arrogant son who will do anything in their power to keep the ruling under his own politics; even though his politics often clashes with the traditions of his local people.

00:01Thanks again.
00:03Are you leaving now?
00:04Yes, I have to go now.
00:05What a pity you're going.
00:07And I wasn't here to enjoy your company.
00:09Thank you, ma'am. Maybe...
00:10I wasn't lucky enough to be your host.
00:13I'd like to invite you to the Tehran Palace
00:15after your victory in the elections.
00:16And I don't want you turning me down again.
00:19That's okay.
00:20It would be my pleasure, all right?
00:22Goodbye, sir.
00:24Mastanay.
00:25Now, why did you let him go like that?
00:28What did you do to the poor guy, my dear?
00:30I really felt some pity for him.
00:32He looked very uneasy.
00:34Because he's so proud.
00:37He is.
00:40And that's your area of expertise, isn't it, my dear?
00:43Breaking people's pride.
01:06Anything else, sir?
01:08Want something?
01:10No.
01:15What?
01:16Something up?
01:18Mmm...

12:26Wait.
12:28Here.
12:28I typed it for you.
12:30Oh, really?
12:30With no mistakes.
12:33Here.
12:33I ironed these for you.
12:37Thank you, Zori.
12:39It's okay.
12:40Join me in the office later.
12:41When you're free.
12:42I will, dear.
12:43See you.
12:43See you.
12:51Here, sir.
12:51Thanks, sir.
12:52Bye.
12:52Thanks.
12:53Goodbye.
12:54Goodbye.
12:54So, Mr. Delda, under the current circumstances these days,
12:59some people fight in God's name and prepare for sacrifices.
13:02Please, sir.
13:04You know, Kisravi was killed.
13:08Surprisingly, your newspaper didn't cover the story.
13:12At that time, we just started the newspaper.
13:14We were very new to the business.
13:17Ah.
13:18Of course.
13:19Of course you were.
13:20That's okay.
13:22So, what do you suggest that we do, then?
13:24Because if you think we can do anything at all, please, tell us, and we'll do our best.
13:30However, we have to be careful not to offend and not to do harm to anybody.
13:37May God bless you.
13:38We want you to publish these stories so that the people know what's going on with the world these days.
13:44We'll be sure to keep you updated on what our friends are doing.
13:49All right.
13:50Don't you want to have a meeting with Dr. Adibon as well?
13:55Why not?
13:56When the time is good?
13:58Mr. Adibon?
14:00Yes?
14:02Don't you think we should close the office today?
14:05Why?
14:06What's happening?
14:07Yesterday, that group of thugs raided several newspaper offices and did a lot of damage.
14:12Yeah, I know.
14:14But we'll keep working.
14:15If they come, we'll see what they say.
14:18If you're worried, you're free to go home.
14:21Me?
14:22No, sir.
14:23I'm not worried for myself.
14:24I'm worried about you and the office is all.
14:26Hey, don't worry.
14:27All right.
14:28But these are bad times.
14:30You can't let your guard down for a few minutes.
14:32Oh, why are you worrying yourself?
14:34Come on.
14:34Nothing will happen.
14:35Everywhere is unsafe.
14:36Go and answer the phone, okay?
14:39Ridiculous.
14:41No one is safe these days.
14:43Yes?
14:44Hello.
14:44Yes.
14:45Yeah, that's me.
14:46How are you?
14:48No.
14:49Nothing's up.
14:51No, no.
14:52Hey, cousin.
14:54All right, here he comes.
14:55Is it Husheng?
14:55Yeah.
14:56What's up?
14:57He can come.
14:58Hello?
14:59Hello, sir.
14:59Hello, Husheng.
15:00How are you?
15:02Oh?
15:03Really?
15:05Oh.
15:05And everything's settled, okay?
15:08Go have something.
15:09It's fine.
15:10It's fine here.
15:11It is.
15:12Okay.
15:14You sure?
15:14Would you like some tea?
15:15I'll wait for you.
15:16Thank you, but I'll make it myself.
15:18See you.
15:21What's up, cousin?
15:23Well, he says the streets are crowded.
15:26People are pouring into Ferdowsi.
15:27Oh?
15:28I told you we should have closed the office.
15:30Closed the office?
15:31You've been sending out bad vibes all morning, you know?
15:33We'll beat the hell out of them.
15:35Who do they think they are?
15:36Just calm down.
15:36Get to work, okay?
15:38We're strong guys, too.
15:39Stop arguing to get to work.
15:40But this isn't working.
15:42Ollie, please get the new one.
15:43We'll have this one repaired, all right?
15:45Okay.
