00:13This has gone cold, dear.
00:17Hello to you, my dear sister.
00:19Has something bad happened?
00:21What can I say?
00:23How can you be so calm?
00:26I thought you were a man of God.
00:28I thought you were a teacher, a mentor.
00:31A man who has guided so many to follow the right path.
00:36I came and asked for your help.
00:38I came for you to guide him,
00:39so he'd stop listening to the devil and give up his foolish plans.
00:42But then I heard that you actually held a gathering for him.
00:47Didn't you think what would happen to me?
00:50That's fine.
00:51You don't have to care.
00:53But at least you could have at least honored your friendship with his father.
00:57His father's rolling over in his grave because of that kid.
01:00Thank you, Mr. Godrat.
01:02Thanks a lot.
01:04Mrs. Marzier, drink this tea.
01:07You must be thirsty.
01:08Come on, drink it.
01:09Don't worry so much.
01:11God is with them.
01:12Listen, sister.
01:13I swear that the only reason that I even got mixed up in this whole business
01:18is because your late husband,
01:21Moinol Bacca, may God rest his soul,
01:23was very kind to me all the time I knew him.
01:27Sister, I don't know who the girl is or what she's made of,
01:30but irregardless of who she is,
01:33your son loves her,
01:35and that hasn't been a bad thing.
01:37Yes, I can see that.
01:39He has suddenly become very wise,
01:42and now he wants to start the Tazier.
01:47It's no mean feat what her love has done for him.
01:51Sister, believe me when I tell you he's become a different person.
01:55He's made a very bold decision
01:57to preserve the Tazier of Imam Hussein.
02:00He's changed a lot.
02:02Well, yes, of course he has changed,
02:05but the changes that have happened to him
02:07might burn all those around him.
02:09I'm already near my death now.
02:11It doesn't matter.
02:13But tell me,
02:14what about that poor young motherless girl, Rafat?
02:18Tell me, what wrong has she done?
02:20After all these years,
02:22God willing,
02:23she was finally going to get married to Mr. Yavar
02:25after more ramen so far.
02:27What if something happens to Mr. Yavar?
02:32Or the Tazier reciters?
02:34Or even you?
02:36This woman?
02:38Those children?
02:40What have they done to deserve this?
02:55The people that you have referred to
02:58are all in their own way
03:01loyal subjects of love.
03:03But love has consequences,
03:06and they are not always to our liking, sister.
03:09And the blood of your son
03:10is no different than the blood
03:13of all the other youths of this country, sister.
03:17For example,
03:19the poor brother of Mr. Yavar.
03:21The mothers of those youth
03:22whose sons have died,
03:24at least they know that their children
03:26have martyred themselves,
03:28that they've died for a good and worthy cause.
03:30But what about my crazy half-wit son?
03:32What about him?
03:34What is he going to die for?
03:37He is going to die
03:38for the love of some Kajar girl,
03:41who God knows what's driving her
03:43to get my son,
03:44and to get all those people
03:46who are helping him
03:47into very big trouble.
03:49May it be the love of one's country,
03:53or the love of a Kajar girl.
03:56What's the difference?
03:58The important thing
03:59is the purity of that love,
04:01which can only be measured
04:02by how it changes the person
04:04in love with the other.
04:08Haydar isn't only important to you,
04:10Miss Marziere.
04:13He's also very dear
04:14and important to me.
04:19Over the course
04:20of the last several weeks,
04:22whether you've noticed it or not,
04:24your son has changed a lot.
04:25This is very important to me.
04:27But what's even more important
04:29is that we don't even know
04:30if the girl has asked him to do this.
04:33You mean,
04:34my son hasn't told you
04:36why he wants to hold
04:37a Tazier this year?
04:40No.
04:46But I don't understand why, Major.
04:48If I recall,
04:49it was just a few weeks ago
04:50that I presented to you
04:51a full report about him.
04:53Yes, yes.
04:54And it was quite a good report.
04:56You are too kind, sir.
04:57Way too kind.
04:58And if I recall
04:59the contents of that report
05:01referred to someone
05:01called Haydar Ghoshmaran.
05:04By monitoring his activities,
05:06we might be able to finally
05:08unravel this complicated case
05:10and bring the culprit to justice.
05:12And that will be
05:13our next objective.
05:15Very well then, sir.
05:17If you see fit,
05:17I will personally observe
05:19his activities.
05:20No, no, Captain.
05:21You and I are very well known
05:23as policemen.
05:25Most of the criminals
05:26who have set foot in this place
05:28know us by sight.
05:29Many of them surround Haydar himself.
05:33I think the employment
05:35of a private detective
05:36will serve better here,
05:37and you should follow
05:38the suspect morning till night.
05:40And also,
05:41don't forget to take care of
05:43today's reports.
05:43That's very important.
05:45Whatever you order,
05:46Major, sir.
06:23Please, sir, please.
06:25Please.
06:28Please.
06:56Good day, madam.
06:58You can go,
06:59Eterom.
07:05They told me that you had
07:07an important matter
07:08to discuss with me.
07:10Don't tell me you finally
07:12come to your senses
07:13and changed your mind.
07:15No.
07:16In some matters,
07:17a person doesn't rely
07:18on using their senses.
07:20However much I keep
07:21trying to tell myself,
07:23don't let your heart be a fool.
07:25it will only lead you
07:26to getting yourself
07:26in trouble.
07:28There's no way
07:28my heart will let me
07:30pay any attention at all.
07:33Now, where the root
07:34of the problem is,
07:35I'll have to go see
07:36my mentor
07:36and ask him about it.
07:39The reason I've come today
07:40is to tell you that
07:42tomorrow is the first night
07:43of Mohara, men,
07:44and your wishes
07:45will be carried out.
07:48As the lady princess
07:49told you,
07:50we will send a servant
07:51to make sure
07:52of the proper holding
07:53of Tazia,
07:54because you see,
07:55it's very important,
07:56so the servants
07:57who are watching
07:58the Tazia,
07:59they will come
08:00each and every night.
08:01That's right.
08:03And that is exactly
08:05why I gave the address
08:07of tomorrow's Tazia
08:09directly to Miss Eterom.
08:12And you can...
08:14And you can rest assured
08:15that Hadar,
08:16he always keeps
08:18his promises.
08:21I've come today
08:22to make sure
08:26that you will keep
08:27your promises as well.
08:28A person who has
08:29Kajar blood
08:30in their veins, sir,
08:33always keeps
08:34their given word.
08:36Good day to you,
08:36ma'am.
08:41Even though
08:42you are just a peasant
08:44and you have
08:45no education whatsoever,
08:47I would have thought
08:47that you at least
08:48knew this about
08:49a family
08:49who has ruled
08:50the Empire of Iran
08:52for more than
08:53200 years.
08:56Pardon me,
08:56but you who seem
08:58to know history
08:59so well
09:00must know
09:01that so much wrong
09:02has been done
09:02to us peasants.
09:04And that's why
09:05we don't trust
09:06those who rule us
09:07so easily.
09:08It's hard for us
09:09to trust any such promise
09:10so easily.
09:13You mean to say
09:14you don't trust me
09:15as well?
09:16No, uh,
09:17no, your word is like,
09:18uh, it's like the
09:19word of God for me.
09:21I have to believe it.
09:24Don't be a hypocrite.
09:29Say what you want
09:30to say.
09:32Hadar might be polite,
09:34but he isn't a hypocrite.
09:35Well then,
09:36if you have something
09:37in your heart
09:37you want to say,
09:38go ahead and say it.
09:41Well, the truth is
09:42that sometimes
09:42I wish that
09:44that your niece
09:45was but a peasant
09:46just like me,
09:47you know.
09:48I mean,
09:48I think that way.
09:50I can't help
09:51thinking that maybe
09:52we had a better chance
09:53of being happy.
09:56There's no denying it
09:57that it would be
09:57much easier for me
09:59to reach what
10:00my heart desires.
10:03That is strange.
10:05In all the romantic stories
10:06I have heard and read,
10:07it has always been
10:08the opposite.
10:10A true lover
10:11always wishes only
10:12the very best
10:13for his beloved
10:14paramour,
10:15and you know that.
10:18however you,
10:19my dear young man,
10:20wish your bride
10:21to lower herself
10:23to your level.
10:25Look here,
10:26my dear.
10:27No man can stand
10:29to see his wife
10:30be on a higher level
10:31than he himself.
10:37If you have nothing
10:39else to say,
10:40you can leave now.
10:42I just,
10:42I just have one question.
10:44Yes.
10:46Pardon me, madam.
10:47The question is not for you.
11:00Ask your question.
11:03I don't mean to pry,
11:05but the truth is that
11:07I just wanted to know
11:08that out of all
11:09the possible conditions
11:10you could have given me,
11:12I mean,
11:13why did you choose
11:14one that no one
11:14could have possibly imagined?
11:18As I explained to you
11:19before,
11:21it's part of a vow.
11:23Yes.
11:25But you never said
11:26what vow.
11:32What difference does it make
11:34to you?
11:36Well,
11:39well,
11:39whatever you wish.
11:43Goodbye.
11:44Bye-bye.
11:52Bye-bye.
12:07Bye-bye.
12:19Come here. Come on. Come here. Go.
12:21You take this. Come on. Come here. Take this.
12:24There you go. Come on. This is for you.
12:27Yeah. You take this. Come on. Hurry. Hurry. Next.
12:30You take this. This is for you. Come on. Hurry.
12:33Let's go. Let's go. Let's move. Come on. Come here.
12:36Hey, be careful. Look out for the police. Keep a lookout.
12:38Go on. Be careful.
12:39Be careful.
12:41Hey, Yavar.
12:42Yeah, Ali. Godspeed. Don't make a lot of noise.
12:46What is it? What's going on?
12:48Come on. Hurry it up. Hurry it up.
12:54What is it?
12:55I know this might not be a good time to say this, Yavar.
12:59But, uh...
13:00But it's still not too late for you, you know?
13:02What's not too late?
13:04Look here, Yavar.
13:05You promised Mizrafat a wedding after Moharam and Safar.
13:10And I don't want to, you know, God forbid, make you have to break your own promise.
13:15That's kind of you, you know.
13:17Why didn't you just stab me in the heart with this knife and get it over with then?
13:22Please, for the love of your deceased brother, don't be shy, huh?
13:25If it's not right for you to do this, just say no.
13:28Don't go too fast.
13:30If I am shy with anyone else, at least it's not with you.
13:34As far as Yavar knows, you have proved your friendship in times when a friend needs help.
13:39Come on, we gotta hurry here.
13:40We will either both see this through to the end, my friend, or neither of us will.
13:45It's for you.
13:46You take this.
13:47Also, you know, that even if it wasn't my sentence, I still wouldn't...
13:52I would never say no to you.
13:55I also want to strike a blow at the government for taking my brother away from me forever.
14:00Hurry up, come on.
14:02Faster, faster, faster.
14:04Yes, yes.
14:05Moving as fast as I can, too.
