00:02Father, let me get that for you.
00:04No, dear.
00:06You shouldn't be the one who goes through the trouble for all of this.
00:09I thought you weren't feeling well. I thought I should help you.
00:12Thank you very much.
00:14Well, what's going on at school?
00:16Nothing. We haven't had French class for a couple of days.
00:19Why?
00:22Because Mrs. Bastani doesn't have time.
00:25Really?
00:26All the girls that come to school have taken off their chadoes, and some don't come to school at all,
00:31even.
00:32Well, maybe the families have prevented them from coming.
00:35Some of them, yes, but the rest, I think, don't have the proper clothes to wear.
00:42Really? Really?
00:48I knew it would come to this. It'll even get worse.
00:53Yes. It's immoral, immoral.
00:58They step on people's honour.
01:01And dignity.
01:03And they make them feel the pain of poverty.
01:08By the way, Father.
01:10Yes, dear?
01:12Say, Father, why do I love you so much?
01:16Huh?
01:18It's because love is a two-way thing.
01:21I want you to know that I love you twice as much as you love me.
01:26Allah, humma, salala, Muhammad, wa'aleh, Muhammad.
01:34Come on, dear.
01:37Ladies, sisters, pray for the soul of Farka al-Sadat, Mashallah Khan's wife.
01:43We pray that she rest in peace.
01:46What a woman she was.
01:49Sister, please sit down.
01:50The youngsters are here. They'll do the work.
01:53Sit down, my dear, sit down.
01:56In the name of Allah, not of those whom you have cursed, nor those who have gone astray.
02:01In the name of Allah, the compassionate, merciful.
02:04Say he is Allah, who is one.
02:06Allah, the eternal refuge.
02:08He neither be cats nor is born, nor is it there to him any equivalent.
02:11And the progeny of Muhammad.
02:14She was the symbol of a great, decent woman.
02:17I really do miss her with us here.
02:19You see her husband's destiny?
02:21Oh, mum, why do you interfere?
02:24I'm not lying.
02:26Ladies, tell your husbands to beware of God's wrath.
02:30Tell them to learn a lesson from Mashallah Khan and what happened to him.
02:33In short, if you take God's religion as a joke and commit sins, then you will be punished.
02:38Ladies, the country's going through a difficult situation, but it won't go on for long.
02:44God's testing his followers.
02:47Please don't tire and give in to the government's demands.
02:51You'll be losing a lifetime of prayers.
02:53Yeah.
02:54Say, Farooq, my dear, there are rumours in the city that Musa Riza and the governor have colluded to take
03:00your shuttle off and to take you to the governor's mansion, and that's why they freed him.
03:05And then Musa Agha and Haj Hussein have been held in prison for three days.
03:09Is this right?
03:10Is this the way it is?
03:11Is this what you call fair?
03:12The hell, who ever said such a thing?
03:15Musa Riza and that kind of talk.
03:16I don't know.
03:17What's happened, Mother?
03:18Well, I said it.
03:19What's this lady saying?
03:20I've heard it.
03:20That's why I'm saying it.
03:22They've made rumours about your dad.
03:25Daru, get up.
03:27No, no, sit down.
03:28I'll be back.
03:30Okay.
03:32Where are you going?
03:33To see your dad.
03:38Farooq, what happened?
03:39Don't know.
03:40God help us.
03:43Why are you standing here?
03:45It's good.
03:45It's good here.
03:46Look at them.
03:55Stop, I said.
04:00Wait a moment, ma'am.
04:01Don't you know it's banned?
04:03Take off your shadow.
04:05Go.
04:05Get out of here.
04:07Don't bother people.
04:08I'm like your sister.
04:09There is no sister or mother.
04:12Take off your shadow.
04:13Which tribe are you from?
04:14Huh?
04:15It's not your fault.
04:17You don't know me.
04:19Yeah.
04:20You're right.
04:22Well now, take off your shadow and maybe I'll recognise you.
04:26Now do you recognise me?
04:29Scoundrel.
04:30No.
04:30You're real innocent.
04:32Get lost!
04:33You scared me.
04:34Get out of my way.
04:35Get out of your way.
04:36Take off your shadow.
04:37Don't you touch me with those dirty hands.
04:38What is this?
04:39What's going on?
04:40What can he do?
04:41It's the law.
04:42Let it go.
04:43If I'm not mistaken, it's mess with us as mine.
04:44Have you seen her?
04:46Get lost!
04:47Out of my way.
04:49Ah!
04:56Did you see what she did?
04:56She's the only person who has the guts to do such a thing.
04:58Are you serious?
04:59Are you slapping me?
05:00Woman, take off your shadow.
05:02Officer, let her go.
05:03You let her go.
05:04Are you deaf?
05:04Can't you see?
05:06She's come out with her shadow on.
05:07And she smacked me too.
05:08Shut your mouth.
05:11Sister, please.
05:12Go ahead.
05:13My face cover.
05:14Here.
05:14Give it to her.
05:15Here you are.
05:20Please.
05:21Bravo to Karimini's decency.
05:22Bravo, man.
05:23Good for you, son.
05:25Go on.
05:25Don't stand here.
05:26Go on.
05:26Go ahead.
05:27You're so stupid.
05:30You idiot.
05:31Don't you know?
05:32That was Merza Reza's wife.
05:33Go on.
05:35Eh?
05:38Please don't stand over here.
05:40You two go to the square.
05:41I'll be there myself.
05:42Yes, sir.
05:42Sure.
05:43Bravo.
05:45I like that.
05:46Bravo.
05:47I had no choice.
05:49Merza Reza's wife is different from all the other women.
05:52Isn't that right?
05:53That's it.
05:54Always act in ways that people don't see you as a negative person.
05:58When it gets ugly, try to hide in the crowd so no one sees you.
06:03Do something for people to think that you're one of them.
06:08Something going on?
06:09Oh, dear God.
06:11Karim?
06:12Oh, dear God.
06:13See how they force people to backbite you?
06:15Abbas Ali.
06:16See what's happening at Merza's residence shop.
06:19I know what intentions that devil had.
06:21Get up, Merza.
06:22I want you to support me.
06:25As long as you're alive.
06:27Not people like Karim.
06:30I want...
06:31I want you to walk home with me.
06:35What did I want to do?
06:38Let's go.
06:39Let me see what I have to do under these circumstances.
06:44Hajmullah Ahmad.
06:45Yes, Merza Reza?
06:49Haji, thank you so much.
06:50Keep an eye on my shop.
06:51I'll go home and be back.
06:52Something.
06:53I'll tell you, please.
06:55After you.
06:56Go on, don't worry.
07:00Oi, wait up.
07:06What's going on?
07:08Nothing.
07:43Go to Kassam the Butcher.
07:45Don't come around me too much.
07:46Huh?
07:46I'll do it, bro.
07:58Come on.
07:59Give me four skewers of kebab.
08:01Come on.
08:06Hello there, Mr. Bhatan Parast.
08:09Hello.
08:10Why are you just hanging around?
08:11What should we do?
08:12What should you do?
08:14Have you seen those women with Shadors?
08:16Where?
08:16Where?
08:17Socks.
08:18I have socks.
08:18Over there.
08:19Thank you, ma'am.
08:20Thank you very much.
08:21Go.
08:21Go take their Shadors off.
08:22If you don't, they'll throw you off the force.
08:24Get out of here.
08:25Have you gone crazy?
08:27You want us to go there and pull off their Shadors?
08:29So they'll slap us and everyone can laugh.
08:31And to make yourself look good, you'll come and save them.
08:35No need to be nosy.
08:37The one I let go was Merzareza's wife.
08:40The governor said we should leave her alone for now.
08:42Maybe this is how it's supposed to be.
08:44Now get back to work before I report you myself.
08:48Go along then, you lazy jerks.
08:52Get me the new stuff.
08:53I don't want old meat, bro.
08:54Yes, sir.
08:55Right away.
08:55Let's go.
08:56Let's go.
08:56They are thugs.
09:01Ugh, these raisins aren't good.
09:03What?
09:04Why did you come back?
09:05Look, we'll go this time.
09:07But don't backstab us.
09:10Please keep an eye on us.
09:12Go on.
09:12I'm here for you.
09:13I'll come in time.
09:14Go.
09:14Hurry.
09:15Go.
09:17You go too.
09:27Oh, these nuts are so good.
09:33Ah!
09:35Ah!
09:36Oh, God.
09:37God damn the devil.
09:38Please!
09:39Somebody help us!
09:40Somebody help us!
09:41Somebody help us!
09:42Come on, quickly!
09:43Please!
09:44We put the skirt over there!
09:45We need help!
09:45Somebody help!
09:46Somebody help us!
09:47Someone help!
09:48God!
09:49Somebody help us!
09:51What can I say?
09:54Hello there.
10:01Give me that shadow.
10:04Give it to her son.
10:06Let her keep her hijab.
10:07Sure, father.
10:11Where are you from?
10:13Who are your mother and father?
10:14What's it to you?
10:15What's it your business?
10:16Please!
10:16So you're not from here.
10:23You see?
10:25He's a stranger.
10:28If he were from here,
10:31he wouldn't take the shadow of the woman of his own town.
10:39Because your honor is my honor.
10:44And my honor is your honor.
10:47Tell me, don't you have a sister?
10:52Or a mother?
10:54How would you feel if someone pulled off the shadow from your mother's head?
10:58Would your honor allow it?
11:00Would your honor allow it?
11:00Of course his honor wouldn't, father.
11:03He made a mistake.
11:05He's sorry.
11:06He won't do it again.
11:07Now go ahead, father.
11:08No, wait.
11:09I have to clear things up here.
11:12Where are you going?
11:13Go and stop them.
11:14No one has the right to stop a police officer.
11:17I know what to do.
11:18Go now.
11:18I'll come too.
11:19Yeah, I saw the first time.
11:21Listen up.
11:22No, I swear I'll come.
11:23Just do something for them to beat you up.
11:24They want to start a fight and scare you.
11:27Beat me up?
11:28Yeah.
11:28Because they're not from here.
11:29It's not important for them.
11:31To start a fight, I'm warning you.
11:34Isn't that right?
11:35Wait a minute.
11:37Wait a minute.
11:37Why have you gathered here?
11:40It's an order from the police station, and I'm a police officer.
11:44We didn't say anything.
11:46Whatever you say.
11:47Come on, father.
11:48Let's go.
11:48No, wait.
11:49Let me hear what he's saying.
11:50Get out of here, old man.
11:52Let's go.
11:53Oh!
12:01Get out of the way.
12:02Go on.
12:02Out of the way.
12:03Let him go.
12:04Let him go.
12:05Get out of here.
12:06Be awful.
12:07Come on, you rascal.
12:08Let him go.
12:12Are you a shameless jerk?
12:20Oh!
12:21Oh!
12:24Oh, God, what did he do?
12:27What did he do?
12:28He, like, snitch.
12:30Is he a couple?
12:32Sorry.
12:34Wait.
12:38Okay, Seed.
12:40Is this how to be a man, huh?
12:42You all saw it. They beat up an officer of the law and in broad daylight.
12:47You'll find out what a mistake you made later.
12:51No need for you to take off your shadow anymore. Keep them on.
12:54Keep them on. You'll see what'll happen to you later.
12:57Let's go, Jahar.
12:59Let's go, bro.
12:59You go to the police station. Let's go.
13:01Get the hell out of here, bro.
13:04Everyone saw that you started the fight first.
13:07They'll testify too.
13:09Get back to work. The fight's over.
13:13Bravo, bravo.
13:14At your service, Said.
13:19Bro. Bro. Bro. Bro. Bro. Are you all right?
13:27Karim. Bro, wait.
13:31Karim?
13:34Where's her?
13:36Hey! Hey, people! People!
13:38People! Can you see what they've done to my brother?
13:41Oh, dear! Oh, God! Look what they've done!
13:47Bro.
13:48What's wrong, Mercer, Rizzo?
13:50Is this right, Mercer?
13:52I already asked for your forgiveness.
13:59Everyone saw what I did.
14:01Everyone saw...
14:02Well, what did you do?
14:04What can I say, sir?
14:06Your police officer was taking off a woman's shadow based on His Royal Highness' order.
14:12Sayed Ali and his son came along and beat up the boy real bad.
14:16When I got there, I told them to stop hitting him.
14:18He's an officer of the law.
14:19It'll be bad for you.
14:21Instead of saying, thank you.
14:22Look what they did to me.
14:25Thanks a lot.
14:26They showed me the meaning of greatness and decency.
14:29People don't expect anything from Issa here.
14:31They expect greatness from the city's elders.
14:35He really upset me.
14:38He really hurt me.
14:42Let's go, Jahan.
14:48I don't get what happened.
14:51Who exactly beat him up?
14:53To tell you the truth, I didn't either.
14:55Whether it's the truth or a lie, he says Sayed Ali and his son beat him.
14:58Sayed Ali?
14:59We'll probably hear about it later.
15:01He's probably made a mess and forced Sayed Ali's son to beat him up.
15:04I just don't get it.
15:06I don't know what this boy is up to.
15:09I don't know what this boy is up to.
