00:13Thank you for watching.
00:30Is this what you're saying, Mr. Fettah?
00:31This must be it! Who else would be so half-naked?
00:34But a beautiful woman, for God's sake!
00:36May he be cursed!
00:38It's always these scoundrels who cause us trouble!

02:31This is the Directorate of Education building; wait for me here!
02:45Enter!
02:49Hello sir/madam!
02:51I'm the new teacher from Istanbul!
02:53Oh, welcome, my dear!
02:55So you're Mrs. Ali!
02:57Please, sit down!
02:58Thank you, sir!
03:00I shouldn't sit here; I wanted to get information from you about my school!
03:04That's easy!
03:05Just take a break!
03:07You're coming all the way from Istanbul!
03:09Tomorrow you'll also get to see your school and meet your students!
03:13Thank you, sir!
03:14Would it be appropriate for me to stay at the school?
03:17Can I move my belongings there?
03:19"My daughter has thought of a way for you to sleep and wake up in, don't worry!"
03:23I don't think living alone in this town is very suitable!
03:28To you, from the gentry...
03:30...We even set aside a room for him at Ömer Efendi's house!
03:33They are one square, one husband!
03:35They are extremely honorable Muslim people!
03:54Really neer!

03:57Sir, I am the new teacher at the school.
03:59The Head of Education said...
04:00Oh, I know! Is that you?
04:02Come inside, my daughter, come in!
04:04We were waiting for you too.
04:06The kids just brought your things and put them in your room.
04:09Gulsum, Gulsum, where are you?
04:11Look, my new stove has arrived.
04:13Welcome, my daughter.
04:14It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.
04:16Thank you, my son.
04:17Wow, you're so beautiful!
04:21May God protect us from the evil eye.
04:23Come, let me show you your room, darling.
04:25We've reserved this room for you, my dear.
04:28It used to be our daughter Emine's room.
04:31I don't know how to thank you.
04:41Was this wedding dress your daughter's?
04:44Yes.
04:45Our Emine is also the one who got engaged.
04:47She was going to get married.
04:48He got sick, and we couldn't figure out what was wrong.
04:51It didn't come out within a week.
04:53He was your age.
04:54When I saw you, for a moment I thought I was seeing Emine.
04:56May God grant you a long life, my daughter.
05:00I grew up without parents.
05:02I lost my mother when I was very young.
05:05He died of tuberculosis.
05:06My father was a soldier.
05:07He was martyred on the Caucasian front.
05:10My childhood was spent among the wooden benches of the girls' teacher training school.
05:14As soon as I receive my diploma, I plan to go to any corner of my homeland.
05:19I chose to raise the children of that place rather than stay in Istanbul.
05:23It was fate that brought me here.
05:26Look at God's work, Mr. Ömer.
05:28He took one of our daughters and sent another in her place.
05:32Thank you, sir.
05:33I feel like I've been reunited with a mother and father.
05:36I hope everything goes well for you, my son.
05:39This school thing is a little tough around here.
05:47Run slow, you damn bastard, run slow.
05:50Watch the video, sir.
05:52May the moon bring blessings to the grave, master.
05:56Here you go.
06:21Hello, I'm Ali, from my new neighborhood.
06:23Thank you for coming.
06:25I'm exhausted from dealing with these aspects all by myself.
06:30Come inside.
06:32Come on.
06:40Do children always come to class pushing and shoving like this?
06:43Why aren't you stopping them?
06:45This isn't Istanbul, madam.
06:47Say a curse to the children of the townspeople, and who dares to do so?
06:53Here is your classroom.
06:54May God make it easy for you.
07:04Let's stop the noise.
07:06Everyone take your seats.
07:11I saw you enter the classroom a moment ago.
07:14I was embarrassed.
07:15You will run and play, but without fighting or making noise.
07:18Brotherly love, but our country is under occupation.
07:22If we fight amongst ourselves, who will save the country?
07:27What's your name?
07:30Mine?
07:31Stand up and then speak.
07:35Yes, what's your name?
07:37Patience in place of Kantajcı Hüseyin.
07:39Just as you should be proud of your family, learn how to speak respectfully to your elders.
07:44And throw that cigarette away immediately.
07:46I don't want to see him smoking in class again.
07:53I don't want any more noise.
07:55What does "Kuvayi Milliyecilik" mean?
07:57It means being an infidel.
07:58Seriously, could a handful of barefooted fighters really take on such a huge enemy army?
08:03Hacı Ferttah, think carefully before you speak.
08:06What did the Mufti of Denizli say?
08:08When an Islamic country is invaded by infidels, Muslims must take up arms.
08:13If he can't find a weapon, he'll resort to shovels and pickaxes.
08:17If that's not available, he'll pick up three stones from the ground and throw them at the enemy.
08:21If the matter is based on a religious ruling, then we have a ruling from our esteemed Sheikh al-Islam.
08:26When the Sultan doesn't issue a decree, it only works to the advantage of the National Forces.
08:30How could the Sultan issue decrees while he was a prisoner in the hands of the English?
08:35Was it up to infidel Unionists like Tahsin to save the Sultan from the English?
08:40Isn't it enough that you're protecting that nationalist?
08:44And you also brought some unknown teacher into your home?
08:47We adopted Aliye, Ferttah effendi.
08:50She's our daughter now.
08:53To those who entrusted Sabih Sübyan to the hands of such teachers.
08:57Who knows what those poor children are going through at school now...
08:59...Teach the brain a magic trick.
