(Train whistle blows)

3
00:03:31,792 --> 00:03:33,876
(Indistinct chatter)

4
00:03:35,709 --> 00:03:38,709
(Man, in Arabic)
Tension in Nablus! News!

5
00:03:39,334 --> 00:03:42,542
(In English)
Oi, you! Identification!

6
00:03:42,667 --> 00:03:44,709
Yes, of course.

7
00:03:51,167 --> 00:03:53,334
(Man, in Arabic)
British crack down on protests.

8
00:03:58,542 --> 00:04:00,251
(Birdsong)

9
00:04:08,126 --> 00:04:09,959
(♪ Music playing faintly)

10
00:04:15,501 --> 00:04:17,584
Sir Amir?

11
00:04:25,167 --> 00:04:27,001
Sir Amir?

12
00:04:31,667 --> 00:04:33,542
Sir?

13
00:04:41,501 --> 00:04:43,459
Sir Amir?

14
00:04:48,709 --> 00:04:51,334
Pardon. I thought…

15
00:04:51,459 --> 00:04:53,792
I'm happy to see you!
Come in.

16
00:04:54,751 --> 00:04:56,751
Don't be shy! Come in!

17
00:04:56,876 --> 00:04:59,251
Tell me, how are things?

18
00:04:59,917 --> 00:05:02,417
I'm writing about the situation
in the villages.

19
00:05:02,542 --> 00:05:04,501
How are people feeling?
The mood?

20
00:05:04,626 --> 00:05:06,751
(In English) Khuloud!
Leave the poor boy alone.

21
00:05:06,876 --> 00:05:09,167
- (In Arabic) What?
- What are you wearing?

22
00:05:10,001 --> 00:05:11,501
(Exhales)

23
00:05:23,001 --> 00:05:26,001
- Want the neighbours to talk?
- Let them.

24
00:05:26,126 --> 00:05:29,251
- More than they already do?
- Also, that is mine.

25
00:05:29,376 --> 00:05:31,001
Ah?

26
00:05:31,126 --> 00:05:32,959
Wearing it inspires my writing.

27
00:05:33,084 --> 00:05:35,292
Yes, inspires you…

28
00:05:35,417 --> 00:05:37,626
I know, my darling Ahmad.

29
00:05:37,751 --> 00:05:39,251
Don't be annoying!
(In English) Stop it!

30
00:05:39,376 --> 00:05:42,751
(In Arabic) Can I get
Ahmad Canaani inspired?

31
00:05:45,834 --> 00:05:48,126
Now you remember Ahmad?

32
00:05:48,751 --> 00:05:50,792
(Laughing)

33
00:05:53,167 --> 00:05:55,209
(♪ Military music playing)

(♪ Music stops)

35
00:06:25,584 --> 00:06:27,959
(In English)
Ladies and gentlemen,

36
00:06:28,084 --> 00:06:31,126
a new page in history
is written today.

37
00:06:31,251 --> 00:06:34,751
The first radio broadcast
in Palestine,

38
00:06:34,876 --> 00:06:38,376
and only the second in the
entire Arab world after Cairo,

39
00:06:38,501 --> 00:06:40,959
begins today here in Ramallah.

40
00:06:41,084 --> 00:06:42,417
I now have great pleasure

41
00:06:42,542 --> 00:06:44,167
in asking His Excellency

42
00:06:44,292 --> 00:06:46,084
the High Commissioner
Sir Arthur Wauchope

43
00:06:46,209 --> 00:06:49,917
to inaugurate the Palestine
Broadcasting Service.

44
00:06:52,251 --> 00:06:54,584
Good morning.
Thank you so much for coming.

45
00:06:56,292 --> 00:06:58,376
Those of you
who are still awake.

46
00:06:58,501 --> 00:07:01,917
The new broadcasting service
in Palestine

47
00:07:02,042 --> 00:07:04,917
will not be concerned
with politics.

48
00:07:05,376 --> 00:07:07,126
Its main object

49
00:07:07,251 --> 00:07:10,376
will be the spread
of knowledge and culture.

50
00:07:10,501 --> 00:07:15,626
First, there are thousands
of farmers in this country.

51
00:07:15,751 --> 00:07:16,917
<i>Fellaheen.</i>

52
00:07:17,459 --> 00:07:20,709
Now, I hope we will find
ways and means

53
00:07:20,834 --> 00:07:22,209
to help these farmers

54
00:07:22,334 --> 00:07:25,042
and explain the advantages

55
00:07:25,167 --> 00:07:29,084
of various forms
of co-operation.

56
00:07:29,209 --> 00:07:31,167
Our broadcasting service

57
00:07:31,292 --> 00:07:36,001
will endeavour to stimulate
musical life in Palestine,

58
00:07:36,126 --> 00:07:41,834
so that we may see
both Oriental and Western music

59
00:07:41,959 --> 00:07:46,084
grow in strength side by side,

60
00:07:46,209 --> 00:07:49,751
each true to its own tradition.

61
00:07:49,876 --> 00:07:51,542
- (Applause)
- Thank you.

62
00:07:52,042 --> 00:07:53,709
(In Arabic) This is the part

63
00:07:53,834 --> 00:07:56,542
where they educate
and elevate us.

64
00:07:56,667 --> 00:07:59,292
(In English) The moment
we've all been waiting for.

65
00:07:59,417 --> 00:08:01,667
(♪ Military music playing)

66
00:08:08,626 --> 00:08:09,792
(♪ Music stops)

67
00:08:10,751 --> 00:08:12,501
This…

68
00:08:13,292 --> 00:08:15,917
… is Jerusalem calling.

69
00:08:17,792 --> 00:08:19,792
(In Hebrew)
The Voice of Jerusalem.

70
00:08:22,001 --> 00:08:24,209
(In Arabic)
This is Radio Jerusalem.

71
00:08:24,334 --> 00:08:26,792
- (Man) Bravo!
- (Applause)

72
00:08:32,334 --> 00:08:34,334
(Radio) 'Beyond the blue waters
of the Mediterranean,

73
00:08:34,459 --> 00:08:36,376
'millions of Jews
all over the world

74
00:08:36,501 --> 00:08:38,709
'were promised a national home
in Palestine

75
00:08:38,834 --> 00:08:40,167
'by Britain's Lord Balfour.

'the Jews are turning more and
more to their Promised Land.'

79
00:08:57,709 --> 00:08:59,834
(In Arabic) If we were
to slice the pipe open,

80
00:08:59,959 --> 00:09:03,751
we could see both Haifa and
Iraq at the same time, right?

81
00:09:05,542 --> 00:09:06,792
Right?

82
00:09:06,917 --> 00:09:08,126
Maybe.

83
00:09:13,584 --> 00:09:14,626
Careful.

84
00:09:21,751 --> 00:09:24,292
Why are there fences
around the colony?

85
00:09:26,042 --> 00:09:28,709
And why do they come
to live here?

86
00:09:28,834 --> 00:09:31,501
Their countries
don't want them.

87
00:09:33,126 --> 00:09:34,792
But why?

88
00:09:36,876 --> 00:09:38,709
I don't know.

89
00:09:41,167 --> 00:09:43,292
Why don't they wear trousers?

90
00:09:44,042 --> 00:09:45,459
(Chuckles)

91
00:09:46,376 --> 00:09:47,584
Let's go home.

92
00:10:11,626 --> 00:10:13,126
(Afra) Yusuf!

93
00:10:13,917 --> 00:10:16,042
What did you see today
in the city?

94
00:10:17,667 --> 00:10:20,042
I saw streetlights

95
00:10:20,167 --> 00:10:22,667
and big buildings…

96
00:10:23,917 --> 00:10:27,459
… and so many people.
Hundreds.

97
00:10:28,709 --> 00:10:30,542
How's the Sir's car?

98
00:10:30,667 --> 00:10:32,876
When will you teach me
to drive?

99
00:10:33,667 --> 00:10:37,251
When your mother
lets you go to the city.

100
00:10:37,376 --> 00:10:39,917
I will go and never come back.

101
00:10:40,501 --> 00:10:42,584
Did you bring…

102
00:10:43,626 --> 00:10:45,751
A promise is a promise.

103
00:10:47,542 --> 00:10:49,334
(Mother) Afra!

104
00:10:49,459 --> 00:10:51,042
Come here.

105
00:11:00,376 --> 00:11:02,084
I need you here.

106
00:11:02,626 --> 00:11:04,459
Not going back and forth
to the city.

107
00:11:04,584 --> 00:11:06,376
I know
where I am most useful.

108
00:11:06,501 --> 00:11:08,542
Me too.
By my side.

109
00:11:08,667 --> 00:11:11,334
Tensions are rising between us
and the settlers.

110
00:11:11,459 --> 00:11:13,709
Sakhina village
had their lands confiscated.

111
00:11:15,292 --> 00:11:17,917
Apparently squabbling city folk
are more interesting.

112
00:11:26,334 --> 00:11:29,709
(Kareem) It's the same king
on all of them?

113
00:11:31,709 --> 00:11:35,376
(Afra) He loves a woman
no one approves of.

114
00:11:35,501 --> 00:11:36,584
But why?

115
00:11:36,709 --> 00:11:38,917
She's older than him.

116
00:11:39,042 --> 00:11:41,292
- So?
- Also, she is divorced.

117
00:11:41,417 --> 00:11:43,251
Oh.

118
00:11:46,084 --> 00:11:47,959
(Thudding)

119
00:11:49,501 --> 00:11:50,584
Here you go, Father.

120
00:12:00,501 --> 00:12:01,667
Son.

121
00:12:02,167 --> 00:12:03,501
It's enough for today.

122
00:12:03,626 --> 00:12:04,876
Come.

123
00:12:13,917 --> 00:12:16,001
(Whispering indistinctly)

124
00:12:18,417 --> 00:12:20,417
Pass the wine, son.

125
00:12:29,334 --> 00:12:33,042
It's knotted
just like sheep wool.

126
00:12:34,042 --> 00:12:36,667
Afra, come sweetheart.

127
00:12:36,792 --> 00:12:38,626
Good night.

128
00:12:43,001 --> 00:12:45,751
Stop that, you.

129
00:13:24,834 --> 00:13:26,501
Why do you go to Jerusalem
so often?

130
00:13:27,167 --> 00:13:28,459
I have a job, man.

131
00:13:28,584 --> 00:13:30,542
You don't tell us much
about it.

132
00:13:30,667 --> 00:13:32,501
Perhaps there's
a romantic reason.

133
00:13:34,084 --> 00:13:37,001
What would a city woman want
with a peasant?

134
00:13:37,126 --> 00:13:40,626
Maybe he reads poetry to her?

135
00:13:41,459 --> 00:13:44,917
'My eyes fill with tears

136
00:13:45,042 --> 00:13:48,417
'Because of a woman
from the city

137
00:13:48,542 --> 00:13:51,584
'I hope she notices me

138
00:13:51,709 --> 00:13:54,542
'And remembers me
after so many years'

139
00:13:55,042 --> 00:13:58,459
No wonder nothing gets done
when men are left on their own.

140
00:13:58,584 --> 00:14:00,667
May God forgive you!

141
00:14:09,459 --> 00:14:11,667
(Indistinct chatter)

142
00:14:32,834 --> 00:14:34,459
(In English) Come on!

143
00:14:34,584 --> 00:14:36,501
There's still two shipments
for loading.

144
00:14:37,292 --> 00:14:38,834
(In Arabic) The day is over.

145
00:14:38,959 --> 00:14:40,501
(In English) Who's going
to stay for overtime?

146
00:14:40,626 --> 00:14:44,042
(In Arabic)
Who wants to work extra?

147
00:14:44,167 --> 00:14:45,751
- I will. I want the work.
- Me.

148
00:14:47,001 --> 00:14:48,626
(In English) The Jewish boys
may be more efficient,

149
00:14:48,751 --> 00:14:51,084
but you lads,
you never let me down.

150
00:14:54,667 --> 00:14:55,709
(In Arabic) Grab the barrel!

151
00:15:01,376 --> 00:15:03,251
(In English) Who's responsible
for the shipment?

152
00:15:06,917 --> 00:15:08,667
Check the documents!

153
00:15:14,501 --> 00:15:16,292
(In Arabic) For J. Kaplan…

154
00:15:17,042 --> 00:15:18,667
… in Tel Aviv.

155
00:15:18,792 --> 00:15:21,459
The British won't take action.

156
00:15:21,584 --> 00:15:24,292
They won't hold Kaplan
responsible, nor anyone else.

157
00:15:24,417 --> 00:15:27,126
Thirty-three barrels
of weapons.

158
00:15:27,792 --> 00:15:30,084
Why do you think
they are arming themselves?

159
00:15:30,209 --> 00:15:33,376
Four factories fired all the
Palestinian workers this month.

160
00:15:34,459 --> 00:15:38,251
My friends, your country
and jobs are being given away.

161
00:15:38,376 --> 00:15:41,042
They're replacing us
with Jewish labour.

162
00:15:41,709 --> 00:15:44,251
Either we stand up
for ourselves

163
00:15:44,376 --> 00:15:46,584
or we sit back and watch.

164
00:15:46,709 --> 00:15:48,751
The choice is yours.

165
00:15:52,667 --> 00:15:54,084
Come on, Khalid.

166
00:16:08,959 --> 00:16:10,417
Satisfied?

167
00:16:11,792 --> 00:16:13,334
Thank God.

168
00:16:14,792 --> 00:16:16,667
We could use more men.

169
00:16:17,542 --> 00:16:20,334
I work, and I send money
to my family.

170
00:16:22,417 --> 00:16:24,417
And when you can't?

171
00:16:24,542 --> 00:16:26,251
God provides.

172
00:16:27,334 --> 00:16:29,417
You'd make a strong fighter.

173
00:16:30,751 --> 00:16:32,209
I don't want to fight.

174
00:16:33,751 --> 00:16:35,251
None of us do.

175
00:16:39,542 --> 00:16:40,584
Next.

176
00:16:47,126 --> 00:16:48,334
Next.

177
00:16:49,626 --> 00:16:51,584
I worked extra hours.

178
00:16:51,709 --> 00:16:53,126
No overtime. Move on.

179
00:16:54,042 --> 00:16:57,876
They asked us
to work overtime.

180
00:17:04,834 --> 00:17:05,751
Next.

181
00:17:06,126 --> 00:17:09,667
- Get out of here.
- I'm talking.

182
00:17:09,792 --> 00:17:11,209
I want to talk to him.

183
00:17:11,334 --> 00:17:13,584
- Get out of here.
- Get your hands off me!

184
00:17:14,751 --> 00:17:16,292
(Grunting)

185
00:17:17,417 --> 00:17:19,459
- Khalid!
- (Groans)

186
00:17:25,459 --> 00:17:28,001
The government refuses
our request to demonstrate.

187
00:17:28,126 --> 00:17:30,001
While the Jewish workers
are allowed to.

188
00:17:30,126 --> 00:17:32,167
They get higher pay

189
00:17:32,292 --> 00:17:33,667
and normal working hours, too.

190
00:17:33,792 --> 00:17:35,542
And days off!

191
00:17:35,667 --> 00:17:38,459
- They have a stronger union.
- Half the men were laid off.

192
00:17:39,167 --> 00:17:40,917
How do we feed our families?

193
00:17:41,042 --> 00:17:42,209
We strike!

194
00:17:42,334 --> 00:17:45,667
The choice is yours.

195
00:17:46,709 --> 00:17:49,626
The choice is theirs.

196
00:17:50,584 --> 00:17:52,417
Either bread…

197
00:17:53,459 --> 00:17:55,376
… or bullets.

198
00:17:55,501 --> 00:17:57,542
(Men) Strike.

199
00:18:26,292 --> 00:18:31,459
CALL FOR ALL:
JOIN THE GENERAL STRIKE

200
00:18:34,126 --> 00:18:37,209
Excuse me,
can I have it when you finish?

201
00:18:40,001 --> 00:18:42,834
- Here you go, sir.
- God bless you.

202
00:19:10,126 --> 00:19:11,626
How do I look?

203
00:19:12,292 --> 00:19:13,876
Do I look stately?

204
00:19:14,667 --> 00:19:16,001
Someone important?

205
00:19:16,626 --> 00:19:18,292
It suits you, sir.

206
00:19:22,084 --> 00:19:23,834
Do you have something nice
to wear?

207
00:19:32,084 --> 00:19:33,876
The Muslim Association
needs new members.

208
00:19:34,001 --> 00:19:35,167
Get yourself a nice suit.

209
00:19:35,292 --> 00:19:37,001
- No, no sir!
- Yusuf!

210
00:19:38,501 --> 00:19:40,292
Get yourself a good suit.

211
00:20:13,792 --> 00:20:15,459
(Horses neighing)

212
00:20:15,584 --> 00:20:17,542
(Shouting, whooping)

213
00:20:38,042 --> 00:20:40,584
- Full strike, people.
- (Door opens)

214
00:20:43,959 --> 00:20:45,084
Sisters and brothers,

215
00:20:45,209 --> 00:20:49,292
my comrades and I appreciate
your generosity and kindness.

216
00:20:51,126 --> 00:20:53,084
- Here you go.
- Long live the revolt.

217
00:20:53,209 --> 00:20:58,709
All of us, rich and poor,
are united in our struggle

218
00:20:58,834 --> 00:21:02,917
for independence and freedom.

219
00:21:04,292 --> 00:21:06,667
God bless you men.

220
00:21:06,792 --> 00:21:08,667
Independence and…

221
00:21:08,792 --> 00:21:09,834
Freedom.

222
00:21:11,042 --> 00:21:13,834
Those could be helpful too,
madam.

223
00:21:19,959 --> 00:21:21,251
Let's go, Khalid!

224
00:21:21,376 --> 00:21:22,751
For the revolution.

225
00:21:23,584 --> 00:21:24,792
We hope to repay you, madam.

226
00:21:24,917 --> 00:21:26,542
God give you strength,
my friends!

227
00:21:27,042 --> 00:21:30,501
Long live the revolt!

228
00:21:31,751 --> 00:21:33,459
(Indistinct shouting)

229
00:21:42,917 --> 00:21:45,001
Sugar?

230
00:21:51,876 --> 00:21:53,376
Settlers started a fire!

231
00:21:53,501 --> 00:21:55,167
They're clearing land
for a new colony!

232
00:21:55,542 --> 00:21:57,626
Right next to the fields.

233
00:21:57,751 --> 00:21:59,792
(Indistinct shouting)

234
00:22:07,251 --> 00:22:09,292
Hurry, Nayef!

235
00:22:15,084 --> 00:22:17,001
The land is burning!

236
00:22:43,459 --> 00:22:46,209
- Thank you, Naim.
- You are welcome.

237
00:22:46,959 --> 00:22:48,917
(In English) Hello, hello!

238
00:22:49,376 --> 00:22:50,751
Hello!

239
00:22:50,876 --> 00:22:52,751
- How are you?
- (Responds in Arabic)

240
00:22:52,876 --> 00:22:54,417
- Hello!
- Hello!

241
00:22:54,542 --> 00:22:55,751
How old are you?

242
00:22:55,876 --> 00:22:58,209
How old am I?
How old are you? (Laughs)

243
00:22:58,334 --> 00:23:00,751
Oh, hello, you old brute.
What's your name, then?

244
00:23:00,876 --> 00:23:03,792
His name is Balfour.

245
00:23:03,917 --> 00:23:05,917
- Sorry, I beg your pardon?
- Lord Balfour.

246
00:23:06,042 --> 00:23:08,459
(Speaking Arabic)

247
00:23:08,584 --> 00:23:10,751
It's fine.

248
00:23:10,876 --> 00:23:12,501
I don't know why I cause
quite such a commotion

249
00:23:12,626 --> 00:23:13,792
everywhere I go.

250
00:23:13,917 --> 00:23:15,584
I hope you've been
long enough in Palestine

251
00:23:15,709 --> 00:23:17,834
to know it's not
about your blue eyes.

252
00:23:17,959 --> 00:23:19,126
(Chuckling)

253
00:23:19,251 --> 00:23:20,376
Thomas Hopkins.

254
00:23:20,501 --> 00:23:21,959
Private Secretary
to the High Commissioner.

255
00:23:22,084 --> 00:23:24,459
- Yusuf Bassawi.
- I'm here as a representative

256
00:23:24,584 --> 00:23:26,542
of His Majesty's government
in Palestine,

257
00:23:26,667 --> 00:23:28,126
so I've come in person

258
00:23:28,251 --> 00:23:30,626
to encourage the villagers
to register their land.

259
00:23:31,626 --> 00:23:33,626
We pay our taxes
to the government.

260
00:23:33,751 --> 00:23:36,542
As long as we can continue
to work our land,

261
00:23:36,667 --> 00:23:39,001
registration
does not concern us.

262
00:23:39,126 --> 00:23:41,751
Ottoman land deeds
are much clearer in the city,

263
00:23:41,876 --> 00:23:44,417
but here, well,
they're not clear at all.

264
00:23:44,542 --> 00:23:48,959
So, we are implementing
a new land registration system.

265
00:23:49,084 --> 00:23:50,417
The Ottoman dunum

266
00:23:50,542 --> 00:23:53,042
will be replaced
with the new metric dunum.

267
00:23:53,667 --> 00:23:56,876
We'll gradually replace
the old system

268
00:23:57,001 --> 00:23:59,376
with privately owned land.

269
00:24:01,376 --> 00:24:03,667
Mr Secretary,

270
00:24:03,792 --> 00:24:05,959
when you drove here today,

271
00:24:06,084 --> 00:24:08,584
you came from
the northern road, correct?

272
00:24:08,709 --> 00:24:10,334
Yes, I did.

273
00:24:11,126 --> 00:24:14,167
Did you saw our village's
farming terraces

274
00:24:14,292 --> 00:24:16,376
on the slopes of the hills?

275
00:24:16,501 --> 00:24:18,417
Stepped terraces.

276
00:24:18,542 --> 00:24:19,876
Do you know what those are?

277
00:24:20,001 --> 00:24:22,751
Yes, I'm familiar
with the stepped terraces

278
00:24:22,876 --> 00:24:24,501
to which you are referring.

279
00:24:24,626 --> 00:24:27,751
That's the work
of thousands of years.

280
00:24:27,876 --> 00:24:30,667
It's the work of our
great-great-grandparents.

281
00:24:32,042 --> 00:24:33,626
But more than that,

282
00:24:33,751 --> 00:24:36,667
it's the relationship
between us and our land.

283
00:24:37,209 --> 00:24:40,167
Is it the right of the English
as occupying power

284
00:24:40,292 --> 00:24:42,667
to distribute the land
as they like?

285
00:24:42,792 --> 00:24:44,834
Mr Secretary,

286
00:24:44,959 --> 00:24:47,542
what about land confiscation
by the Zionists?

287
00:24:48,167 --> 00:24:51,001
What is your government doing
about that?

288
00:24:51,959 --> 00:24:53,292
Look…

289
00:24:54,001 --> 00:24:55,542
All I can say is,

290
00:24:55,667 --> 00:24:58,876
land registration
will protect you.

291
00:24:59,917 --> 00:25:03,084
It includes a detailed,
precise description of each lot

292
00:25:03,209 --> 00:25:04,876
and its borders,

293
00:25:05,001 --> 00:25:06,792
which in the end serves you,

294
00:25:06,917 --> 00:25:08,667
and without
that piece of paper,

295
00:25:08,792 --> 00:25:12,251
there is no way of proving
who the land belongs to.

296
00:25:12,376 --> 00:25:14,292
Just the morning,
the British court transferred

297
00:25:14,417 --> 00:25:18,542
thirty-five dunum of land,
your land, to the settlers.

298
00:25:48,376 --> 00:25:50,626
(In Arabic)
The court has transferred

299
00:25:50,751 --> 00:25:53,667
35 dunums of village lands
to the Jewish colony.

300
00:25:53,792 --> 00:25:55,417
We will no longer be able
to access it

301
00:25:55,542 --> 00:25:57,709
- effective immediately.
- This is theft.

302
00:25:57,834 --> 00:26:02,959
Our leadership has proposed
we establish our own courts.

303
00:26:03,084 --> 00:26:05,501
Rebel run courts?

304
00:26:05,626 --> 00:26:08,501
The British already raid
our homes searching for rebels.

305
00:26:08,626 --> 00:26:09,792
It's our duty
to support them.

306
00:26:09,917 --> 00:26:10,751
Damn the English.

307
00:26:10,876 --> 00:26:13,542
They've had a boot on our necks
since I was born.

308
00:26:13,667 --> 00:26:17,126
That's why we must stand
together.

309
00:26:17,959 --> 00:26:20,334
They were not expecting mass
support of the National Strike.

310
00:26:20,459 --> 00:26:22,667
Those so-called neighbours
came to replace us,

311
00:26:22,792 --> 00:26:24,084
not to live with us.

312
00:26:24,209 --> 00:26:26,751
We have always welcomed people
of all faiths to this land.

313
00:26:26,876 --> 00:26:29,584
The English courts
have no legitimacy here.

314
00:26:29,709 --> 00:26:31,751
I call for a delegation
to speak with our neighbours

315
00:26:31,876 --> 00:26:33,709
without British interference.

316
00:26:34,292 --> 00:26:35,876
Without the English, I agree.

317
00:26:36,001 --> 00:26:38,584
Before the British interfere.

318
00:26:39,751 --> 00:26:42,167
Abu Huda, Abu Nidal,

319
00:26:42,292 --> 00:26:46,417
Father Boulos,
Abu Yusuf, Sheikh Yassin.

320
00:26:47,001 --> 00:26:48,042
Father.

321
00:26:48,501 --> 00:26:49,667
This is naive.

322
00:26:49,792 --> 00:26:53,542
Zionists do not negotiate,
they want the land.

323
00:26:53,667 --> 00:26:55,584
I need to go with them.

324
00:26:55,709 --> 00:26:57,542
At least wait until morning.

325
00:26:57,667 --> 00:27:00,084
By morning, the land will
have already been cordoned off.

326
00:27:00,209 --> 00:27:02,292
It's now or never.

327
00:27:03,126 --> 00:27:05,376
Let's go.
The sun is moving fast.

328
00:27:22,376 --> 00:27:23,417
Halt!

329
00:27:24,417 --> 00:27:25,959
(Grunts)

330
00:27:26,084 --> 00:27:27,542
Father!

331
00:27:28,292 --> 00:27:29,626
Oh, Father!

332
00:27:29,751 --> 00:27:31,751
- (Indistinct shouting)
- Abu Yusuf?

333
00:27:32,209 --> 00:27:34,584
(♪ Humming)

334
00:27:49,709 --> 00:27:51,626
(♪ Humming stops)

335
00:28:09,626 --> 00:28:11,584
Your name is in heaven,
Abu Yusuf.

336
00:28:11,709 --> 00:28:13,251
Your name is in heaven.

337
00:28:14,417 --> 00:28:17,334
(Chanting)

338
00:28:32,626 --> 00:28:34,251
They are coming, people!

339
00:28:35,751 --> 00:28:37,251
(Shouting)

340
00:28:53,251 --> 00:28:55,584
(In English) We are looking
for armed bandits

341
00:28:55,709 --> 00:28:57,584
who've been disturbing
the settlers.

342
00:29:00,584 --> 00:29:03,251
(In Arabic)
Where were your men last night?

343
00:29:06,209 --> 00:29:07,334
You!

344
00:29:07,792 --> 00:29:09,167
Where were you?

345
00:29:11,209 --> 00:29:13,167
No one knows anything?

346
00:29:15,542 --> 00:29:17,001
Very well.

347
00:29:19,792 --> 00:29:21,917
(In English) Let's go!
Move it, come on!

348
00:29:22,042 --> 00:29:24,042
(Grunts)

349
00:29:25,626 --> 00:29:27,501
(Clamouring)

350
00:29:28,292 --> 00:29:29,584
(In Arabic)
Get out of our home!

351
00:29:29,709 --> 00:29:31,042
- Get out of here!
- (In English) Shut up!

352
00:29:31,167 --> 00:29:32,584
(In Arabic) Get out!

353
00:29:36,292 --> 00:29:39,042
Leave us alone!

354
00:29:39,167 --> 00:29:40,209
We said get lost!

355
00:29:40,751 --> 00:29:43,251
- (Laughing)
- (Shouting)

356
00:29:45,084 --> 00:29:47,667
Can't we bury our dead
in peace, you bastards?

357
00:29:47,792 --> 00:29:49,042
Nayef!

358
00:29:50,167 --> 00:29:52,209
Bunch of killers!

359
00:29:55,334 --> 00:29:57,459
Go ask the settlers
who killed my father!

360
00:29:57,584 --> 00:30:00,126
- Nayef! Nayef!
- Nayef!

361
00:30:00,251 --> 00:30:02,251
(Indistinct shouting)

362
00:30:07,626 --> 00:30:09,542
(In English)
Get back! You're dead!

363
00:30:09,667 --> 00:30:12,209
This is my little brother.
He hasn't done anything.

364
00:30:12,334 --> 00:30:14,042
(In Arabic)
Yusuf, do something!

365
00:30:14,167 --> 00:30:16,209
(In English)
We have just buried our father.

366
00:30:17,542 --> 00:30:19,292
Condolences.

367
00:30:19,834 --> 00:30:20,876
Let's go.

368
00:30:22,959 --> 00:30:24,792
- Drive!
- Go, go, go! Go!

369
00:30:27,834 --> 00:30:29,876
Move it! Move it!
Keep your heads down, lads!

370
00:30:30,001 --> 00:30:31,876
Keep your heads down!

371
00:30:32,001 --> 00:30:33,542
Move! Move!

372
00:30:36,084 --> 00:30:38,001
(In Arabic)
Sing for Abu Yusuf, Nayef!

373
00:30:38,126 --> 00:30:39,834
(Ululating)

374
00:30:51,501 --> 00:30:53,834
(Indistinct chatter)

375
00:30:57,626 --> 00:30:59,459
- (In English) Good evening.
- How lovely to see you.

376
00:30:59,584 --> 00:31:01,251
- Thank you.
- Madam.

377
00:31:01,376 --> 00:31:03,876
(Indistinct chatter)

378
00:31:08,792 --> 00:31:10,126
(In Arabic) Like this.

379
00:31:10,876 --> 00:31:12,334
See?

380
00:31:15,084 --> 00:31:16,876
This is the right amount.

381
00:31:19,959 --> 00:31:21,001
(In English) Thomas!

382
00:31:21,501 --> 00:31:23,667
- Good to see you, my friend.
- Good to see you, too.

383
00:31:23,792 --> 00:31:25,876
- Gin?
- I'm a whisky man.

384
00:31:26,001 --> 00:31:28,792
Of course, of course.
Yusuf will do the honours.

385
00:31:29,959 --> 00:31:32,084
- (Speaks Arabic)
- Yusuf Bassawi.

386
00:31:33,334 --> 00:31:36,209
We must stop meeting like this.

387
00:31:36,334 --> 00:31:37,792
(In Arabic) How are you?

388
00:31:39,126 --> 00:31:40,459
Fine.

389
00:31:40,584 --> 00:31:42,709
(In English)
Oh, no, uh… neat. Sorry.

390
00:31:45,084 --> 00:31:47,334
You seem much more relaxed
in the village.

391
00:31:48,709 --> 00:31:50,334
Cheers!

392
00:31:52,709 --> 00:31:53,959
Of course! They do.

393
00:31:54,084 --> 00:31:57,459
- Mr Secretary, another drink?
- I'm actually fine.

394
00:31:57,584 --> 00:31:59,251
You've gathered
quite the group this evening.

395
00:31:59,376 --> 00:32:01,042
Yes, I did.

396
00:32:01,167 --> 00:32:02,542
I'm not sure I know everyone.

397
00:32:02,667 --> 00:32:07,501
Well, to your left,
Mr Jaffa Oranges himself

398
00:32:07,626 --> 00:32:10,667
owns half the groves
from here to the sea.

399
00:32:10,792 --> 00:32:13,042
Well, we are what we eat.

400
00:32:14,459 --> 00:32:17,459
Behind you, Matiel Mogannam.

401
00:32:18,084 --> 00:32:20,251
Who the hell invited him?

402
00:32:20,917 --> 00:32:23,751
Captain Wingate. Sorry,
I didn't see you arriving.

403
00:32:23,876 --> 00:32:26,501
(Woman) Can't the army
afford haircuts anymore?

404
00:32:27,501 --> 00:32:29,876
(♪ Swing music playing)

405
00:32:49,459 --> 00:32:51,376
You have very forgiving
neighbours.

406
00:32:52,626 --> 00:32:55,126
Well, that's because
they're all here.

407
00:32:56,459 --> 00:32:57,501
Yusuf!

408
00:32:58,834 --> 00:33:00,667
Yusuf is a young, bright man
from the villages.

409
00:33:03,917 --> 00:33:05,459
Which village?

410
00:33:05,584 --> 00:33:07,376
Al Basma.

411
00:33:07,501 --> 00:33:08,959
In the hills?

412
00:33:11,501 --> 00:33:13,376
A good village.

413
00:33:15,584 --> 00:33:17,667
Fields of gold.

414
00:33:20,626 --> 00:33:22,792
This truly is a holy land.

415
00:33:25,251 --> 00:33:27,292
I've been to that village
on several occasions.

416
00:33:32,667 --> 00:33:33,917
We've met before.

417
00:33:36,709 --> 00:33:38,501
(In Arabic)
Respect the Strike!

418
00:33:39,167 --> 00:33:41,167
Long live the revolt!

419
00:33:41,292 --> 00:33:43,501
(In English)
Everyone inside!

420
00:33:43,626 --> 00:33:44,917
Savages!

421
00:33:47,376 --> 00:33:49,084
(In Arabic)
Is the rebels' main goal

422
00:33:49,209 --> 00:33:50,542
to remind us of the troubles?

423
00:33:51,167 --> 00:33:52,959
- (In English) Please stay.
- Oh, we have to go.

424
00:33:53,084 --> 00:33:54,292
Thank you very much.

425
00:33:54,417 --> 00:33:55,876
We have to go. Thank you.

426
00:33:56,001 --> 00:33:58,001
Get home safely.
Thank you for coming.

427
00:33:58,126 --> 00:33:59,917
(In Arabic)
Sir Amir, may I leave?

428
00:34:00,042 --> 00:34:00,876
No.

429
00:34:01,001 --> 00:34:02,417
(Khuloud, in English)
Let's get some candles.

430
00:34:02,542 --> 00:34:04,209
(In Arabic) Perhaps
it's better you sleep here.

431
00:34:04,334 --> 00:34:06,501
It's dangerous to travel
at night these days.

432
00:34:26,876 --> 00:34:29,001
Nevertheless, the Arab
leadership has clearly stated

433
00:34:29,126 --> 00:34:30,584
their main demands.

434
00:34:30,709 --> 00:34:34,417
A democratic government is
to be established in Palestine.

435
00:34:34,542 --> 00:34:37,501
A stop to the transfer
of Arab land to the Jews,

436
00:34:37,626 --> 00:34:39,959
and an end to
Jewish immigration from Europe.

437
00:34:40,084 --> 00:34:41,251
But our interests
are different.

438
00:34:41,376 --> 00:34:44,417
We must separate ourselves
from those national parties.

439
00:34:44,542 --> 00:34:46,209
Lately,
I've been asking myself,

440
00:34:46,334 --> 00:34:49,001
is Zionism really so bad
for us? For business?

441
00:34:49,126 --> 00:34:50,501
- Exactly!
- True.

442
00:34:50,626 --> 00:34:51,792
Yusuf.

443
00:34:51,917 --> 00:34:54,042
Would you like to share
your opinion?

444
00:34:55,542 --> 00:34:58,042
Well, I…

445
00:34:58,917 --> 00:35:00,542
Tell us about the countryside.

446
00:35:05,084 --> 00:35:06,751
We are losing land daily.

447
00:35:08,084 --> 00:35:11,501
Many farmers have been evicted
from their lands —

448
00:35:11,626 --> 00:35:13,792
farmers who worked hard
in these lands.

449
00:35:13,917 --> 00:35:15,126
And settlers have taken over.

450
00:35:15,251 --> 00:35:17,334
I understand it's a
difficult time for you all,

451
00:35:17,459 --> 00:35:20,376
but not all villagers pay
their debts to the landowners.

452
00:35:20,501 --> 00:35:22,292
- Wouldn't you agree?
- Right.

453
00:35:22,417 --> 00:35:25,667
People can barely feed
their families these days,

454
00:35:25,792 --> 00:35:27,334
let alone pay debts,

455
00:35:27,459 --> 00:35:29,626
while Zionists
are taking our lands.

456
00:35:29,751 --> 00:35:31,751
We must remember that it is we,
the landowners

457
00:35:31,876 --> 00:35:33,709
who own the majority
of the land.

458
00:35:33,834 --> 00:35:36,584
And pay the taxes, too.

459
00:35:36,709 --> 00:35:38,751
Thank you, Yusuf.
Have a seat.

460
00:35:39,417 --> 00:35:41,042
I propose we move on.

461
00:35:41,167 --> 00:35:42,626
As you've all heard,

462
00:35:42,751 --> 00:35:45,542
the French and Belgian
ambassadors…

463
00:35:57,876 --> 00:35:59,459
No, no!

464
00:36:02,792 --> 00:36:04,917
(Afra) Yusuf! Yusuf!

465
00:36:05,042 --> 00:36:06,792
Afra. Dear…

466
00:36:07,917 --> 00:36:09,334
We need water.

467
00:36:15,667 --> 00:36:17,584
The rebels sabotaged a patrol.

468
00:36:17,709 --> 00:36:20,042
Despite the threats,
we refused to speak.

469
00:36:22,792 --> 00:36:23,876
(In English) Stop!

470
00:36:27,167 --> 00:36:29,167
There'll be no water dispensed
without my permission,

471
00:36:29,292 --> 00:36:30,751
I'm afraid.

472
00:36:33,542 --> 00:36:34,792
You!

473
00:36:40,584 --> 00:36:41,626
Give me your papers.

474
00:36:47,417 --> 00:36:49,042
No transit pass
to leave the village?

475
00:36:55,084 --> 00:36:56,376
(In Arabic)
Your turn soon, Afra.

476
00:36:57,959 --> 00:36:59,334
(In English) I ordered you
to stop, Yusuf.

477
00:37:02,209 --> 00:37:03,501
(In Arabic) Pass it to her.

478
00:37:04,084 --> 00:37:05,542
Drink.

479
00:37:09,876 --> 00:37:11,792
- Yusuf!
- (Screaming)

480
00:38:04,917 --> 00:38:06,417
How are you?

481
00:38:08,001 --> 00:38:10,167
Yusuf Bassawi.

482
00:38:11,459 --> 00:38:13,251
Welcome.

483
00:38:18,959 --> 00:38:20,917
Each village gets ammunition
for protection.

484
00:38:23,209 --> 00:38:25,042
We are fighting for our people.

485
00:38:28,042 --> 00:38:31,251
Our duty is to serve and fight
for a free nation.

486
00:38:31,376 --> 00:38:34,126
We defend civilians
at all costs. Understand?

487
00:38:58,876 --> 00:39:00,292
Puppet Kings?

488
00:39:00,417 --> 00:39:01,959
Puppet Kings, Khuloud?

489
00:39:02,084 --> 00:39:03,667
You can't publish this!

490
00:39:03,792 --> 00:39:05,709
It's the truth.

491
00:39:05,834 --> 00:39:07,459
It sounds atrocious.

492
00:39:07,584 --> 00:39:10,126
Unfortunately, I didn't pen
that description myself.

493
00:39:12,626 --> 00:39:14,209
- Let's be logical.
- Logical?

494
00:39:14,792 --> 00:39:18,959
Accepting British requests to
intervene in ending our strike?

495
00:39:19,084 --> 00:39:22,001
The longest strike in history,
I should add.

496
00:39:22,126 --> 00:39:24,001
They're scared the rebellion
will spread to their countries

497
00:39:24,126 --> 00:39:25,959
and knock them
off their thrones.

498
00:39:26,084 --> 00:39:28,292
And our National Committee
is different?

499
00:39:28,417 --> 00:39:30,459
Endorsing the General Strike,
who do they think they are?

500
00:39:30,584 --> 00:39:33,001
Who do they think they are?

501
00:39:35,167 --> 00:39:37,334
The leaders of all five
Palestinian parties

502
00:39:37,459 --> 00:39:38,917
who represent all our voices

503
00:39:39,042 --> 00:39:40,751
are united and called
for the Strike.

504
00:39:40,876 --> 00:39:42,626
We Arabs are shooting ourselves
in the foot.

505
00:39:42,751 --> 00:39:44,209
Some of us feel
the National Committee

506
00:39:44,334 --> 00:39:46,042
does not represent
our best interests.

507
00:39:50,834 --> 00:39:52,626
Like your Muslim Association?

508
00:39:53,959 --> 00:39:57,084
Isn't unification
of all parties more tactical?

509
00:39:57,209 --> 00:39:58,709
(In English)
Makes more sense!

510
00:39:58,834 --> 00:40:00,251
Khuloud.

511
00:40:02,001 --> 00:40:03,042
(In Arabic) My love.

512
00:40:03,167 --> 00:40:05,792
I adore you even if we
never agree on anything.

513
00:40:17,917 --> 00:40:20,667
- Our lands are ours.
- Our lands are ours.

514
00:40:20,792 --> 00:40:24,417
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!

515
00:40:24,542 --> 00:40:27,876
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!

516
00:40:28,001 --> 00:40:29,584
Palestine
was not Balfour's to give.

517
00:40:29,709 --> 00:40:31,001
Palestine
was not Balfour's to give!

518
00:40:31,126 --> 00:40:32,834
(In English) Please! Please!
If you could just…

519
00:40:32,959 --> 00:40:34,376
quiet, a moment.

520
00:40:34,501 --> 00:40:36,292
Then, perhaps,
we could speak calmly,

521
00:40:36,417 --> 00:40:38,126
and I might be able to help.

522
00:40:38,251 --> 00:40:40,834
Look, we see him up there.

523
00:40:41,917 --> 00:40:44,751
Tell His Excellency
not to be afraid of us.

524
00:40:44,876 --> 00:40:47,292
I can assure you
he is not afraid of you.

525
00:40:47,417 --> 00:40:49,251
He is, however,
extraordinarily busy

526
00:40:49,376 --> 00:40:51,501
at this present moment,
as I'm sure you can understand.

527
00:40:51,626 --> 00:40:53,501
I am here, though,

528
00:40:53,626 --> 00:40:56,751
to hear all of your problems,
all of your concerns,

529
00:40:56,876 --> 00:40:59,334
and make sure that they are
addressed sufficiently.

530
00:40:59,459 --> 00:41:00,751
Let him hear us out.

531
00:41:00,876 --> 00:41:02,751
As I said, he's very busy
at the moment.

532
00:41:02,876 --> 00:41:05,709
We will wait here
until he agrees to see us.

533
00:41:05,834 --> 00:41:07,959
It is really the minimum,
Mr Secretary.

534
00:41:08,084 --> 00:41:10,001
Madam, you are placing me
in an invidious position.

535
00:41:10,126 --> 00:41:11,542
(In Arabic)
Palestine is not for sale.

536
00:41:11,667 --> 00:41:12,917
Palestine is not for sale!

537
00:41:13,042 --> 00:41:14,667
Palestine
was not Balfour's to give!

538
00:41:14,792 --> 00:41:15,917
Palestine
was not Balfour's to give!

539
00:41:16,042 --> 00:41:17,834
(In English)
Very good. As you wish.

540
00:41:17,959 --> 00:41:19,709
(In Arabic)
Our lands are ours!

541
00:41:19,834 --> 00:41:22,917
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!

542
00:41:23,042 --> 00:41:25,001
The British police and army

543
00:41:25,126 --> 00:41:27,542
are behaving with
more and more brutality daily

544
00:41:27,667 --> 00:41:29,876
in the villages.
It's rampant.

545
00:41:30,001 --> 00:41:32,417
Boys are being arrested,

546
00:41:32,542 --> 00:41:35,792
people beaten
for not having transit passes.

547
00:41:35,917 --> 00:41:37,959
Curfews and collective
punishment.

548
00:41:38,084 --> 00:41:40,334
More and more lands
are being confiscated.

549
00:41:40,459 --> 00:41:43,459
An increased disposition
of the fellaheen.

550
00:41:43,584 --> 00:41:45,376
Mr Commissioner,

551
00:41:45,501 --> 00:41:48,167
we are asking for your help
in protecting our villages.

552
00:41:49,667 --> 00:41:51,834
Well,
I appreciate you coming.

553
00:41:51,959 --> 00:41:55,126
I can see you're influential
ladies with great passion.

554
00:41:55,251 --> 00:41:58,542
But I fear my hands are tied
more and more by London.

555
00:41:59,251 --> 00:42:03,001
Rebel attacks have almost
doubled in the past few weeks,

556
00:42:03,126 --> 00:42:06,084
so we have no option
but to exact the laws

557
00:42:06,209 --> 00:42:08,959
which punish the villages
entirely

558
00:42:09,084 --> 00:42:11,792
for the crimes of the few.

559
00:42:11,917 --> 00:42:14,667
Why punish everyone
for the actions of a few?

560
00:42:14,792 --> 00:42:17,751
Because as you know better
than anyone,

561
00:42:17,876 --> 00:42:19,626
the Arab holds the community

562
00:42:19,751 --> 00:42:21,626
in higher value
than the individual.

563
00:42:21,751 --> 00:42:23,459
What we know, Your Excellency,

564
00:42:23,584 --> 00:42:26,251
is that our brothers
and sisters in the countryside

565
00:42:26,376 --> 00:42:28,834
are compelled
under present circumstances

566
00:42:28,959 --> 00:42:31,167
to defend their families
and their homes.

567
00:42:31,292 --> 00:42:33,501
And perhaps
London can see things

568
00:42:33,626 --> 00:42:35,209
through our perspective.

569
00:42:35,334 --> 00:42:36,959
I have good news for you.

570
00:42:37,084 --> 00:42:39,376
Lord Peel is to head
a new commission,

571
00:42:39,501 --> 00:42:41,209
a royal commission,

572
00:42:41,334 --> 00:42:42,917
and I have no doubt

573
00:42:43,042 --> 00:42:46,167
that this will deal
with many of your concerns.

574
00:42:46,292 --> 00:42:50,876
Meanwhile,
I ask you all to have faith

575
00:42:51,001 --> 00:42:54,251
that Arab and Jew
can live together,

576
00:42:54,376 --> 00:42:56,126
serve together,

577
00:42:56,251 --> 00:42:57,792
and that, with your help,

578
00:42:57,917 --> 00:43:03,667
together we can create a united
and peaceful Holy Land.

579
00:43:04,292 --> 00:43:08,251

Bon appétit.

598
00:44:21,209 --> 00:44:23,084
The villagers thank you.

599
00:44:23,209 --> 00:44:26,376
My God, look at this.
Perfection.

600
00:44:27,751 --> 00:44:29,417
Join us.

601
00:44:30,417 --> 00:44:31,542
Be careful.

602

check posts across the hills.

603
00:44:34,334 --> 00:44:35,876
Our regards to Yusuf.

604
00:44:36,001 --> 00:44:38,167
Thank you, Mother of Afra.

605
00:44:38,626 --> 00:44:40,209
She's a beauty.

606
00:44:40,334 --> 00:44:42,167
Lucky man, Yusuf.

607
00:44:48,417 --> 00:44:50,084
So disrespectful.

608
00:44:50,542 --> 00:44:52,334
This is the widow of a martyr.

609
00:44:53,792 --> 00:44:55,167
We're just talking.

610
00:44:55,626 --> 00:44:57,459
Shame on you.

611
00:44:57,584 --> 00:44:59,084
Take it easy.

612
00:44:59,626 --> 00:45:00,917
Eat.

613
00:45:06,167 --> 00:45:08,917
Look. The English ban
the keffiyeh,

614
00:45:09,042 --> 00:45:12,376
and the street explodes
into a sea of keffiyehs.

615
00:45:12,501 --> 00:45:16,251
Think the paper can pay me
for the last batch of photos?

616
00:45:16,376 --> 00:45:17,584
I'll ask.

617
00:45:17,709 --> 00:45:19,459
I'll pay you this month.

618
00:45:19,584 --> 00:45:21,042
- Can you?
- It's OK.

619
00:45:22,334 --> 00:45:23,709
(In English) Kay! Kay!

620
00:45:23,834 --> 00:45:26,042
- Thomas!
- (Thomas) Sorry.

621
00:45:26,167 --> 00:45:27,792
The Arab Committee's agreed
to speak

622
00:45:27,917 --> 00:45:30,334
to the Peel Commission.
They're calling off the strike.

623
00:45:30,459 --> 00:45:31,626
Hot off the press.

624
00:45:32,292 --> 00:45:33,876
I am the press.

625
00:45:34,001 --> 00:45:35,542
Right.

626
00:45:37,542 --> 00:45:39,667
Well, everyone seems
relatively happy

627
00:45:39,792 --> 00:45:41,626
for business
to be back up and running.

628
00:45:42,292 --> 00:45:43,709
Wrong words.

629
00:45:44,417 --> 00:45:46,459
But I have a good feeling
about the Peel Commission.

630
00:45:46,584 --> 00:45:47,834
Another commission.

631
00:45:47,959 --> 00:45:50,126
It's a real chance
for the Palestinian leadership

632
00:45:50,251 --> 00:45:52,751
to put forward a proper case
for your rights.

633
00:45:53,542 --> 00:45:55,042
For legitimacy.

634
00:46:00,709 --> 00:46:02,834
- So, Mr Secretary…
- Hmm?

635
00:46:02,959 --> 00:46:05,917
… tell me,
what's happening at the office?

636
00:46:07,126 --> 00:46:08,876
I'm starting to feel
somewhat like a spy.

637
00:46:09,001 --> 00:46:10,834
- You are my spy.
- (Chuckles)

638
00:46:13,334 --> 00:46:16,959
I'll tell you what I can…
and a lot more than that.

639
00:46:17,084 --> 00:46:18,084
Is it true

640
00:46:18,209 --> 00:46:21,376
they're providing protection
for Jewish settlements?

641
00:46:21,501 --> 00:46:22,917
Yes.

642
00:46:23,042 --> 00:46:24,084
And?

643
00:46:24,834 --> 00:46:26,542
And they're setting up

644
00:46:26,667 --> 00:46:28,959
a British-Jewish
counter-insurgency unit.

645
00:46:30,376 --> 00:46:33,126
- Bastards.
- Hey, now…

646
00:46:33,251 --> 00:46:34,917
Don't shoot the messenger.

647
00:46:35,834 --> 00:46:37,459
You know where I stand
on all this.

648
00:46:37,584 --> 00:46:39,501
Still bastards.

649
00:46:39,626 --> 00:46:42,084
Look, can we for once talk

650
00:46:42,209 --> 00:46:43,917
about something other
than politics?

651
00:46:44,042 --> 00:46:46,792
Thomas,
I am not a tourist here.

652
00:46:48,876 --> 00:46:51,001
- Oh, Christ!
- This must be a sign

653
00:46:51,126 --> 00:46:52,834
things are calm
at the Commissioner's office.

654
00:46:52,959 --> 00:46:54,417
Like the Dead Sea.

655
00:46:54,542 --> 00:46:57,251
Everyone's happy, I suppose?
Bloody strike's finally over.

656
00:46:58,042 --> 00:47:00,417
This may not be the best place
to bring a lady, however.

657
00:47:00,542 --> 00:47:01,376
Indeed!

658
00:47:01,501 --> 00:47:02,834
Do you two know each other?

659
00:47:02,959 --> 00:47:04,959
I don't believe
we've had the pleasure.

660
00:47:05,084 --> 00:47:07,876
I was hoping my parties were
more memorable than that.

661
00:47:08,001 --> 00:47:10,834
Khuloud Atef,
Captain Wingate.

662
00:47:10,959 --> 00:47:12,334
My apologies, madam.

663
00:47:12,459 --> 00:47:14,959
Your English is impressive.
Where did you learn?

664
00:47:15,751 --> 00:47:17,876
In boarding school.
And Oxford.

665
00:47:18,001 --> 00:47:19,542
And you?

666
00:47:20,542 --> 00:47:22,584
Excuse me,
I have work to do.

667
00:47:24,876 --> 00:47:26,334
Captain.

668
00:47:29,501 --> 00:47:31,542
A Muslim woman.

669
00:47:31,667 --> 00:47:34,084
Can't say I blame you.
Quite the Sheba.

670
00:47:34,209 --> 00:47:35,751
As you well know,
she's a journalist.

671
00:47:35,876 --> 00:47:39,042
- A very good one at that.
- Oh, of course, of course.

672
00:47:41,626 --> 00:47:43,042
In the Old Testament,

673
00:47:43,167 --> 00:47:45,501
the city of Jerusalem
is personified as a woman,

674
00:47:45,626 --> 00:47:48,376
after the city was destroyed
by the Babylonians.

675
00:47:48,501 --> 00:47:49,667
Prophecy says

676
00:47:49,792 --> 00:47:51,792
the Israelites would one day
be returned to Zion.

677
00:47:51,917 --> 00:47:54,334
The archaeological evidence
behind those claims

678
00:47:54,459 --> 00:47:55,917
is pretty tenuous,
wouldn't you say?

679
00:47:56,042 --> 00:47:57,167
No, I wouldn't.

680
00:47:57,917 --> 00:48:00,709
You're at the crossroads
of a major moment in time.

681
00:48:01,626 --> 00:48:03,251
We will see
the first Jewish army

682
00:48:03,376 --> 00:48:04,917
in two thousand years arise.

683
00:48:06,709 --> 00:48:08,042
Perhaps you should consider

684
00:48:08,167 --> 00:48:09,876
which side of history
you want to be on.

685
00:48:24,376 --> 00:48:25,834
(In Arabic) He's injured.

686
00:48:25,959 --> 00:48:27,167
Careful.

687
00:48:27,959 --> 00:48:30,209
Go, go.
He's safe with us.

688
00:48:30,334 --> 00:48:31,584
The British are in the area.

689
00:48:31,709 --> 00:48:33,834
We don't want any trouble here.

690
00:48:36,834 --> 00:48:39,292
Relax.

691
00:48:46,126 --> 00:48:48,334
You're safe here in the hills.

692
00:48:48,459 --> 00:48:51,376
The rebels are around.
They know how to reach us.

693
00:48:55,876 --> 00:48:58,417
(♪ Singing in Arabic)

694
00:49:35,459 --> 00:49:37,334
Grape leaves, onions, mint.

695
00:49:37,792 --> 00:49:39,209
Smell the freshness.

696
00:49:39,876 --> 00:49:42,376
- How much?
- Two kurus.

697
00:49:42,501 --> 00:49:43,792
Kurus and a half.

698
00:49:43,917 --> 00:49:46,251
For you only.
Kurus and a half it is.

699
00:49:46,876 --> 00:49:49,209
You're doing well today
with that sweet voice.

700
00:49:49,334 --> 00:49:51,709
- Want to go to the hammam?
- Not today.

701
00:49:51,834 --> 00:49:54,126
Oh, come on.
You always say that.

702
00:49:54,792 --> 00:49:56,834
You could use a bath.

703
00:49:57,709 --> 00:49:59,042
I'll buy us
the bus tickets home.

704
00:49:59,167 --> 00:50:00,376
So generous!

705
00:50:00,501 --> 00:50:02,334
Watch my things.

706
00:50:03,167 --> 00:50:05,376
She comes back
smelling like flowers.

707
00:50:05,501 --> 00:50:08,126
I wonder for who?

708
00:50:09,292 --> 00:50:11,792
(In English)
Hello, young man.

709
00:50:13,709 --> 00:50:16,584
(In Arabic) You should
shoot him, not shine his shoes.

710
00:50:16,709 --> 00:50:18,459
God keep them far from us.

711
00:50:30,001 --> 00:50:32,959
Hope everyone
is as generous today.

712
00:50:40,667 --> 00:50:42,417
- Kareem!
- (People screaming)

713
00:50:55,751 --> 00:50:57,834
I will take you to your father.

714
00:50:57,959 --> 00:50:59,709
(Whispering)

715
00:51:13,084 --> 00:51:15,584
The Irgun militia has vowed
to increase activities.

716
00:51:15,709 --> 00:51:17,584
Believe me, trouble is coming.

717
00:51:31,417 --> 00:51:33,459
(Indistinct shouting)

718
00:51:42,917 --> 00:51:44,959
(In English) Papers!

719
00:51:56,834 --> 00:51:59,001
(In Arabic) God bless you.
God bless your children.

720
00:51:59,126 --> 00:52:01,501
God bless the English.
God bless you.

721
00:52:01,626 --> 00:52:04,042
(Man, in English)
Come now, please. Please.

722
00:52:06,001 --> 00:52:07,376
(In Arabic)
Have some respect for yourself.

723
00:52:07,501 --> 00:52:10,334
(Man, in English) All men
and boys off the bus now!

724
00:52:10,459 --> 00:52:13,001
(In Arabic) Come on, men.

725
00:52:17,459 --> 00:52:18,501
Let's go.

726
00:52:21,292 --> 00:52:24,334
(Man) Right, line up.
Hands up!

727
00:52:29,667 --> 00:52:32,709
I said, "Get your hands up!"

728
00:52:34,042 --> 00:52:35,376
Smith.

729
00:52:36,167 --> 00:52:38,376
- Get your hands up!
- (Indistinct shouting)

730
00:52:40,709 --> 00:52:42,542
(Banging, shouting)

731
00:52:50,876 --> 00:52:52,709
(Panting)

732
00:53:08,167 --> 00:53:09,834
(Gun cocking)

733
00:53:20,709 --> 00:53:23,084
(In Arabic) A Turkish beauty.

734
00:53:24,251 --> 00:53:26,959
Someone's been taking care
of it all these years.

735
00:53:28,042 --> 00:53:29,792
Is the bullet there?

736
00:53:29,917 --> 00:53:31,626
Let me have a look.

737
00:53:35,167 --> 00:53:36,917
The bullet is inside.

738
00:53:37,042 --> 00:53:38,292
It's still packed.

739
00:53:40,542 --> 00:53:42,292
What are you doing?

740
00:53:43,167 --> 00:53:45,542
Are you still awake?

741
00:53:45,667 --> 00:53:47,126
What's wrong?

742
00:53:47,251 --> 00:53:48,417
I had a nightmare.

743
00:53:48,542 --> 00:53:50,501
Come here, darling.

744
00:54:28,417 --> 00:54:29,834
Afra.

745
00:54:32,834 --> 00:54:34,584
Come, grandchild.

746
00:54:41,876 --> 00:54:43,501
I want to tell you something.

747
00:54:46,792 --> 00:54:48,959
Do you know
where your land is?

748
00:54:50,084 --> 00:54:52,501
Your land is
where your people are buried.

749
00:54:54,126 --> 00:54:56,626
I can teach you
how to use that.

750
00:54:58,251 --> 00:55:00,126
It's easy.

751
00:55:01,126 --> 00:55:02,834
But you must know

752
00:55:02,959 --> 00:55:05,376
you have something
more powerful

753
00:55:05,501 --> 00:55:07,584
than the entire British Empire.

754
00:55:09,751 --> 00:55:10,917
What is it?

755
00:55:16,709 --> 00:55:18,626
You will know on your own.

756
00:55:20,751 --> 00:55:23,209
You come from a line
of brave people

757
00:55:23,334 --> 00:55:25,459
who love this land.

758
00:55:38,084 --> 00:55:39,417
Who's there?

759
00:55:40,626 --> 00:55:42,292
Rabab?

760
00:55:42,417 --> 00:55:44,084
I'm looking for <i>akoub.</i>

761
00:55:44,751 --> 00:55:46,376
At this hour?

762
00:55:46,876 --> 00:55:48,292
Can I help?

763
00:55:48,417 --> 00:55:51,167
No, I need to get back.

764
00:55:51,292 --> 00:55:53,126
I didn't realise
how late it is.

765
00:55:53,251 --> 00:55:54,709
Alright.

766
00:55:54,834 --> 00:55:57,376
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

767
00:56:17,709 --> 00:56:19,459
You hid it?

768
00:56:21,126 --> 00:56:23,334
Good night, daughter.

769
00:56:23,459 --> 00:56:25,292
Good night.

770
00:56:59,667 --> 00:57:01,251
Want to buy?

771
00:57:01,376 --> 00:57:02,959
Thank you, dear.

772
00:57:05,667 --> 00:57:07,584
Want to buy, sir?

773
00:57:07,709 --> 00:57:08,876
Want to buy?

774
00:57:09,001 --> 00:57:10,292
Just for you.

775
00:57:16,542 --> 00:57:18,417
(Praying indistinctly)

776
00:57:56,417 --> 00:57:58,584
Careful.
Soldiers are everywhere.

777
00:57:58,709 --> 00:58:00,917
It's safe here.

778
00:58:07,334 --> 00:58:08,459
Son.

779
00:58:08,584 --> 00:58:10,042
You're late.

780
00:58:11,209 --> 00:58:12,542
We missed the bus.

781
00:58:12,667 --> 00:58:14,584
I got here as fast as I could.

782
00:58:17,376 --> 00:58:18,917
Don't forget.

783
00:58:19,584 --> 00:58:21,376
He hears everything.

784
00:58:22,542 --> 00:58:23,584
I'm sorry.

785
00:58:24,292 --> 00:58:26,251
We'll just make it
before curfew.

786
00:58:26,376 --> 00:58:27,417
Let's go.

787
00:58:29,459 --> 00:58:31,959
The beauty of nature.

788
00:58:33,376 --> 00:58:35,667
No matter
how strong man thinks he is,

789
00:58:35,792 --> 00:58:39,876
nature always shows
God's true strength.

790
00:58:41,292 --> 00:58:43,376
Why do people confess to you?

791
00:58:44,001 --> 00:58:47,292
To acknowledge their sins
and obtain forgiveness.

792
00:58:47,959 --> 00:58:49,251
From you?

793
00:58:49,376 --> 00:58:51,626
From God.
Only God can forgive.

794
00:58:53,376 --> 00:58:55,626
Are they bad people?

795
00:58:56,501 --> 00:58:58,542
We are all sinners.

796
00:58:58,667 --> 00:59:00,542
When one is truly sorry
for their sins,

797
00:59:00,667 --> 00:59:04,167
they seek forgiveness
in His divine light.

798
00:59:06,001 --> 00:59:07,542
(In English)
Where are you two off to?

799
00:59:08,959 --> 00:59:11,251
To our village. Al Basma.

800
00:59:12,126 --> 00:59:13,501
Permits.

801
00:59:14,959 --> 00:59:16,251
You, too.

802
00:59:16,376 --> 00:59:18,542
He's only a child.

803
00:59:18,667 --> 00:59:20,626
The hills are
bandit territory.

804
00:59:20,751 --> 00:59:22,417
He's not a bandit.

805
00:59:22,542 --> 00:59:23,584
He's my son.

806
00:59:24,126 --> 00:59:26,126
Aren't we all, Father?
(Snickering)

807
00:59:26,917 --> 00:59:28,709
How can a priest have a son?

808
00:59:29,417 --> 00:59:31,834
It's permitted in our faith.

809
00:59:31,959 --> 00:59:34,251
Horny rascals! (Chuckling)

810
00:59:47,459 --> 00:59:49,376
(Mutters) Hello, hello…

811
00:59:49,501 --> 00:59:51,209
I think this should probably
stay with us.

812
00:59:51,334 --> 00:59:52,959
Just leave it, will you?

813
00:59:53,417 --> 00:59:54,959
Bloody hell, he's a priest.

814
01:00:04,584 --> 01:00:07,959
Hey… looks like someone's
stealing from the priest.

815
01:00:08,084 --> 01:00:10,084
Is stealing also permitted
in your faith?

816
01:00:10,792 --> 01:00:13,334
No. It is not, my son.

817
01:00:15,334 --> 01:00:16,959
Kick off.

818
01:00:17,084 --> 01:00:18,084
- Come on.
- Come on.

819
01:00:18,209 --> 01:00:20,001
It's almost curfew. Go!

820
01:00:21,334 --> 01:00:23,376
(Church bells ringing)

821
01:00:35,042 --> 01:00:36,876
(In Arabic) What's wrong?

822
01:00:42,626 --> 01:00:44,167
Give me your hand.

823
01:00:49,251 --> 01:00:50,751
Bite as hard as you can.

824
01:00:51,542 --> 01:00:52,792
Bite.

825
01:00:52,917 --> 01:00:55,042
Stronger. Stronger.

826
01:00:56,834 --> 01:00:58,209
Oi!

827
01:00:59,042 --> 01:01:00,209
I won.

828
01:01:00,334 --> 01:01:01,834
Do you know why?

829
01:01:01,959 --> 01:01:04,334
Because I endured longer,
not because I'm stronger.

830
01:01:05,084 --> 01:01:08,667
You need to endure,
so you can win in the end.

831
01:01:10,626 --> 01:01:13,209
Did I hurt you?
I'm sorry, son.

832
01:01:14,084 --> 01:01:15,334
Forgive me.

833
01:01:23,501 --> 01:01:24,751
Remember…

834
01:01:25,834 --> 01:01:27,751
… God protects us.

835
01:01:27,876 --> 01:01:30,209
(♪ Singing in Arabic)

836
01:02:30,084 --> 01:02:31,126
How are you?

837
01:02:32,042 --> 01:02:33,501
How am I?

838
01:02:33,626 --> 01:02:35,667
What's that article
you asked me to have published?

839
01:02:36,709 --> 01:02:38,167
He's a new writer.
I'm helping him.

840
01:02:38,751 --> 01:02:40,542
What do you mean?
Did you read it?

841
01:02:41,042 --> 01:02:42,459
Kind of.

842
01:02:43,167 --> 01:02:46,084
It's ridiculous.
Full of propaganda.

843
01:02:46,209 --> 01:02:48,751
It's a pro-Zionist article.

844
01:02:49,542 --> 01:02:50,917
It's just words and opinions.

845
01:02:51,584 --> 01:02:53,209
What words and opinions?

846
01:02:53,334 --> 01:02:55,292
Something
everyone is entitled to.

847
01:03:04,376 --> 01:03:06,459
Who is this Anwar Yacoub?

848
01:03:08,042 --> 01:03:10,209
I told you, a young writer.

849
01:03:10,334 --> 01:03:12,376
I want to meet him.

850
01:03:12,501 --> 01:03:14,584
- You can't.
- Why not?

851
01:03:19,417 --> 01:03:21,626
Everyone has their reasons
for privacy.

852
01:03:21,751 --> 01:03:24,334
- Mm-hmm.
- And it should be respected.

853
01:03:24,459 --> 01:03:27,542
You of all people know that,
Khuloud,

854
01:03:27,667 --> 01:03:30,292
or rather Ahmad Canaani.

855
01:03:31,251 --> 01:03:33,042
- Ahmad Canaani?
- Mm-hmm.

856
01:03:33,167 --> 01:03:35,834
You know very well
that without this name,

857
01:03:35,959 --> 01:03:38,459
no one will publish
or read my articles.

858
01:03:38,584 --> 01:03:41,584
I know. Perhaps Anwar
also has his reasons.

859
01:03:42,834 --> 01:03:44,042
Fine.

860
01:03:44,167 --> 01:03:45,917
I challenge him to
a public debate in the paper.

861
01:03:46,042 --> 01:03:48,084
Each writes a column
in response to the other.

862
01:03:53,209 --> 01:03:54,292
I'll propose the idea.

863
01:03:59,584 --> 01:04:03,584
AHMAD CANAANI
RESPONDS TO ANWAR YACOUB

864
01:04:05,751 --> 01:04:07,709
"The whole country
is suspended.

865
01:04:08,251 --> 01:04:10,626
"The Peel Commission

866
01:04:10,751 --> 01:04:13,167
"and we hold our breath.

867
01:04:13,709 --> 01:04:17,251
"Even our rebels wait

"that freedom

"to meet with

874

They're from Jerusalem?

875
01:04:49,167 --> 01:04:51,167
They're from me.

876
01:04:56,417 --> 01:04:57,792
(Sighs)

877
01:05:00,626 --> 01:05:03,209
Can you keep a secret?

878
01:05:08,959 --> 01:05:10,501
Khalid?

879
01:05:11,417 --> 01:05:13,292
Khalid?

880
01:05:15,667 --> 01:05:17,334
Wait for me here.

881
01:05:36,459 --> 01:05:37,917
Who's our friend?

882
01:05:38,042 --> 01:05:40,042
He's a boy from our village.

883
01:05:40,167 --> 01:05:42,292
His name is Kareem.

884
01:05:42,417 --> 01:05:44,042
How's your mother been?

885
01:05:44,167 --> 01:05:45,876
She's with my grandfather.

886
01:05:46,376 --> 01:05:47,709
He hasn't been well.

887
01:05:48,167 --> 01:05:50,542
- Hope he feels better.
- Thank you.

888
01:06:09,459 --> 01:06:11,667
We have to be careful
these days.

889
01:06:12,542 --> 01:06:14,292
Right, Kareem?

890
01:06:22,917 --> 01:06:24,251
(Exclaims)

891
01:06:29,459 --> 01:06:31,167
(Giggling)

892
01:06:34,459 --> 01:06:36,126
Why do you bring Khalid food?

893
01:06:36,251 --> 01:06:38,084
Because he protects us.

894
01:06:40,542 --> 01:06:42,667
God protects us.

895
01:06:42,792 --> 01:06:44,834
Come! Come!

896
01:06:46,042 --> 01:06:47,584
The English are picnicking!

897
01:06:47,709 --> 01:06:49,376
The English are picnicking!

898
01:06:49,501 --> 01:06:52,251
They have cake!

899
01:06:54,459 --> 01:06:55,501
So what?

900
01:06:55,626 --> 01:06:57,292
(Panting)

901
01:06:58,209 --> 01:06:59,626
(In English)
Haven't we gone far enough?

902
01:06:59,751 --> 01:07:01,251
No, no.
From the top,

903
01:07:01,376 --> 01:07:04,417
you have the most wonderful
view of Jerusalem.

904
01:07:05,667 --> 01:07:07,834
(Woman) Ooh,
I've lost my shoe.

905
01:07:10,126 --> 01:07:11,709
My goodness!

906
01:07:13,292 --> 01:07:14,959
Well worth the walk
up the hill, I think.

907
01:07:15,084 --> 01:07:17,084
(Conversation
continues indistinctly)

908
01:07:26,626 --> 01:07:28,292
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

909
01:07:28,417 --> 01:07:29,917
Yes! Good header.

910
01:07:30,042 --> 01:07:31,376
Tackle! Tackle!

911
01:07:31,501 --> 01:07:32,626
Quickly!

912
01:07:33,084 --> 01:07:34,959
Yeah!

913
01:07:35,876 --> 01:07:37,667
Now, what does that make
the score?

914
01:07:38,126 --> 01:07:39,542
Whoa!

915
01:07:40,667 --> 01:07:41,834
(Dog barking)

916
01:07:41,959 --> 01:07:43,626
Does that make it four-nil?

917
01:07:43,751 --> 01:07:45,292
(In Arabic) I'll get it.

918
01:07:46,626 --> 01:07:48,251
(In English) Oh, goodness me.

919
01:07:55,209 --> 01:07:56,501
(Dog barking)

920
01:08:11,292 --> 01:08:14,292
(In Arabic) Kareem, hurry.

921
01:08:21,459 --> 01:08:23,626
(Faint prayer in distance)

922
01:10:06,501 --> 01:10:07,917
I need help.

923
01:10:08,042 --> 01:10:09,667
My brother is still in prison.

924
01:10:09,792 --> 01:10:11,667
Yusuf,
you need to be careful.

925
01:10:11,792 --> 01:10:13,501
The leadership
is calling for the rebels

926
01:10:13,626 --> 01:10:15,042
to lay down their arms.

927
01:10:17,334 --> 01:10:18,626
In whose interest is that?

928
01:10:19,209 --> 01:10:20,917
We're weak.

929
01:10:21,626 --> 01:10:24,501
Let's wait, gather our strength
and come back stronger.

930
01:10:24,626 --> 01:10:27,834
Wait for what?
Amir's friends to sell us out?

931
01:11:50,042 --> 01:11:52,001
(Door opens, closes)

932
01:11:53,792 --> 01:11:56,751
The Peel Commission results
will be announced tonight.

933
01:11:56,876 --> 01:11:58,251
Dyala and Maher

934
01:11:58,376 --> 01:12:00,876
are bringing that dreadful
cousin with them for dinner.

935
01:12:02,417 --> 01:12:06,251
I saw Thomas this afternoon,

936
01:12:06,376 --> 01:12:08,959
and insisted
he come celebrate with us.

937
01:12:17,376 --> 01:12:18,459
You're giving Anwar Yacoub

938
01:12:18,584 --> 01:12:19,876
a run for his money
in the papers.

939
01:12:20,001 --> 01:12:21,959
Nothing like a good debate!

940
01:12:23,584 --> 01:12:25,626
Do you need money?

941
01:12:26,167 --> 01:12:29,001
(Chuckles)
Everyone needs money.

942
01:12:29,751 --> 01:12:31,459
Are you in debt?

943
01:12:31,584 --> 01:12:33,376
Are you in trouble?

944
01:12:36,292 --> 01:12:37,667
What are you talking about?

945
01:12:39,126 --> 01:12:42,292
Why does
the Zionist Commission pay you?

946
01:12:46,792 --> 01:12:49,334
I don't… What do you mean?

947
01:12:49,459 --> 01:12:51,334
I'm the one that's confused.

948
01:12:51,459 --> 01:12:53,292
I want you to explain.

949
01:12:58,126 --> 01:12:59,959
It's complicated.

950
01:13:01,292 --> 01:13:02,834
Um…

951
01:13:07,626 --> 01:13:12,084
They… The Zionist Commission
founded the Muslim Association.

952
01:13:12,751 --> 01:13:15,917
They pay some of the members'
salaries.

953
01:13:19,084 --> 01:13:20,417
What for?

954
01:13:21,001 --> 01:13:23,917
To create an opposition
to the national parties.

955
01:13:25,292 --> 01:13:27,792
Honestly, if it helps us
secure a position

956
01:13:27,917 --> 01:13:29,792
in this whole thing…

957
01:13:29,917 --> 01:13:33,167
They really believe
I have a chance to be mayor.

958
01:13:35,042 --> 01:13:39,042
Your friend, Anwar Yacoub,

959
01:13:39,167 --> 01:13:41,042
do you share his views?

960
01:13:42,834 --> 01:13:45,542
No. I do not.

961
01:13:55,542 --> 01:13:57,292
Anwar doesn't exist.

962
01:13:59,667 --> 01:14:01,001
The Zionists want articles

963
01:14:01,126 --> 01:14:03,792
offering a different point
of view in the Arab papers.

964
01:14:03,917 --> 01:14:06,084
They know
people wouldn't be influenced

965
01:14:06,209 --> 01:14:08,709
unless they thought
a Palestinian wrote it.

966
01:14:09,501 --> 01:14:11,292
Those articles were written
by the Zionist Commission

967
01:14:11,417 --> 01:14:12,917
and translated to Arabic.

968
01:14:17,001 --> 01:14:20,501
I agreed for just a couple,
and that's finished.

969
01:14:24,709 --> 01:14:26,376
(Radio, indistinct)

970
01:14:27,292 --> 01:14:29,751
How long
will they make us wait?

971
01:14:29,876 --> 01:14:32,126
Let's hope for good news.

972
01:14:34,792 --> 01:14:36,042
(Knocking on door)

973
01:14:36,167 --> 01:14:38,251
Someone to celebrate
our independence?

974
01:14:40,417 --> 01:14:42,501
Finally our own government.

975
01:14:45,751 --> 01:14:46,876
(In English) Thomas.

976
01:14:47,001 --> 01:14:48,751
Please come in.
I'm glad you made it.

977
01:14:48,876 --> 01:14:51,376
- (Cousin) About time!
- Single malt?

978
01:14:52,251 --> 01:14:55,292
- Later… perhaps.
- Please have a seat.

979
01:14:55,417 --> 01:14:56,626
Hello.

980
01:14:56,751 --> 01:14:58,584
- Good evening.
- Good evening.

981
01:14:59,501 --> 01:15:00,751
- Hello.
- Hello.

982
01:15:00,876 --> 01:15:02,917
So, what's the news
from the other side?

983
01:15:03,042 --> 01:15:04,876
Go on, then.

984
01:15:05,001 --> 01:15:06,709
Don't keep us waiting.

985
01:15:08,834 --> 01:15:10,792
Well, it's not good,
I'm afraid.

986
01:15:13,542 --> 01:15:16,126
Partition has been proposed…

987
01:15:17,126 --> 01:15:20,084
… with no independent
Palestinian state…

988
01:15:21,334 --> 01:15:23,792
… and a forcible transfer
of its population.

989
01:15:25,376 --> 01:15:27,167
Who the hell do the British
think they are

990
01:15:27,292 --> 01:15:28,917
to give away
half the country?

991
01:15:29,876 --> 01:15:32,209
Tell me, Mr Secretary,
how would you feel

992
01:15:32,334 --> 01:15:35,292
if we decided to cut
your country into bits…

993
01:15:36,084 --> 01:15:37,876
- … and give it away.
- (In Arabic) Unbelievable.

994
01:15:38,001 --> 01:15:40,751
(In English) A Jewish
National Home in our country,

995
01:15:40,876 --> 01:15:42,001
but not in yours?

996
01:15:42,126 --> 01:15:43,751
Look, I'm not here
as a representative

997
01:15:43,876 --> 01:15:45,042
of the Peel commission.

998
01:15:45,167 --> 01:15:47,584
I've merely come
to deliver a message.

999
01:15:47,709 --> 01:15:49,917
Uh… I did that
of my own volition.

1000
01:15:51,376 --> 01:15:53,501
- Perhaps I should leave.
- Thomas, wait!

1001
01:15:53,626 --> 01:15:55,959
I don't understand. How…?

1002
01:15:56,459 --> 01:15:58,167
I wish I understood.

1003
01:15:59,376 --> 01:16:01,251
- I'm sorry.

01:21:12,584 --> 01:21:14,001
Long live the revolt!

1080
01:21:15,417 --> 01:21:17,709
Victory to the revolt!

1081
01:21:17,834 --> 01:21:20,584
- Victory to the revolt!
- Victory to the revolt!

1082
01:21:20,709 --> 01:21:22,709
Victory to the revolt!

1083
01:21:26,167 --> 01:21:28,084
(Indistinct shouting)

1084
01:21:47,126 --> 01:21:53,042
BRITISH LOSE CONTROL OF NABLUS

1085
01:21:56,167 --> 01:21:58,917
(Indistinct shouting)

1086
01:22:16,917 --> 01:22:18,876
(Wauchope, in English)
Good God!

1087
01:22:20,251 --> 01:22:21,751
They've got a cross
on their flag.

1088
01:22:21,876 --> 01:22:22,751
Mm.

1089
01:22:22,876 --> 01:22:24,584
What do they know
about Christ?

1090
01:22:25,292 --> 01:22:26,709
You can't be serious.

1091
01:22:26,834 --> 01:22:30,042
That's not an image we want
telegraphed around the world.

1092
01:22:30,167 --> 01:22:31,584
Keep it under your hat.

1093
01:22:32,167 --> 01:22:33,417
It's unfortunate,

1094
01:22:33,542 --> 01:22:36,126
but the Christian Arabs
have thrown in their lot

1095
01:22:36,251 --> 01:22:38,626
with their Muslim brethren.

1096
01:22:38,751 --> 01:22:40,626
I think you all know Mr Tegart,

1097
01:22:40,751 --> 01:22:43,292
our expert adviser
on counter-insurgency.

1098
01:22:43,417 --> 01:22:47,834
Mr Tegart is lately from India,
where he had great success.

1099
01:22:47,959 --> 01:22:50,209
Did a bloody good job.

1100
01:22:50,334 --> 01:22:54,584
I propose we build
a network of fortresses.

1101
01:22:55,709 --> 01:22:57,251
Here,

1102
01:22:57,376 --> 01:23:00,167
to keep weapons,
goods and militants

1103
01:23:00,292 --> 01:23:02,626
from infiltrating
from Lebanon and Syria,

1104
01:23:03,376 --> 01:23:05,042
I advise

1105
01:23:05,501 --> 01:23:09,292
that the best solution to
terrorism is to build a wall.

1106
01:23:09,417 --> 01:23:13,376
A nine-foot barbed wire barrier
from Ras Al Naqoura

1107
01:23:13,501 --> 01:23:15,709
to the northern edge
of Lake Tiberias,

1108
01:23:15,834 --> 01:23:18,001
running right along
the northern border.

1109
01:23:18,459 --> 01:23:20,667
As for fighting insurgents
within our borders,

1110
01:23:20,792 --> 01:23:22,626
I advise a different tactic.

1111
01:23:23,959 --> 01:23:26,376
We'll get the Arabs themselves
to do it.

1112
01:23:26,501 --> 01:23:27,626
(Wauchope)
How do you do that?

1113
01:23:27,751 --> 01:23:29,459
A pro-British, anti-rebel,

1114
01:23:29,584 --> 01:23:32,126
Arab counter-insurgent
militia…

1115
01:23:33,209 --> 01:23:35,334
… which we will call…

1116
01:23:38,376 --> 01:23:39,834
… the Peace Bands.

1117
01:23:39,959 --> 01:23:41,459
(Scoffs)

1118
01:23:41,584 --> 01:23:42,917
(Hopkins) Sorry…
(Clears throat)

1119
01:23:43,042 --> 01:23:47,042
We turn the Arabs
on themselves?

1120
01:23:47,167 --> 01:23:48,667
You really think
they're that foolish?

1121
01:23:48,792 --> 01:23:51,209
A prominent Palestinian family
has already committed.

1122
01:23:51,334 --> 01:23:54,084
(Wingate) No!
These are peasants.

1123
01:23:54,209 --> 01:23:55,667
They have no central
organisation.

1124
01:23:55,792 --> 01:23:57,626
They move from cave to cave,

1125
01:23:57,751 --> 01:23:59,084
village to village,
like animals.

1126
01:23:59,209 --> 01:24:02,167
(Tegart) We'll identify rebels
in the countryside

1127
01:24:02,292 --> 01:24:05,167
who will inform and sow
discontent for the rebellion.

1128
01:24:05,292 --> 01:24:06,751
I'd like to take a minute

1129
01:24:06,876 --> 01:24:11,126
just to remind everyone
of our tactics to date.

1130
01:24:11,251 --> 01:24:14,501
We've shut down
every Arab printing press,

1131
01:24:14,626 --> 01:24:17,417
we've banned newspapers,
censored their mail

1132
01:24:17,542 --> 01:24:19,292
and intercepted
their telephone calls.

1133
01:24:19,417 --> 01:24:21,917
We've set up check posts
and curfews.

1134
01:24:22,042 --> 01:24:23,626
We've even taken away
their bloody livestock.

1135
01:24:23,751 --> 01:24:25,626
We don't want another Ireland
on our hands.

1136
01:24:25,751 --> 01:24:27,751
No. Quite!

1137
01:24:27,876 --> 01:24:29,251
But we've still gone ahead

1138
01:24:29,376 --> 01:24:33,209
and banned singing
and waving flags.

1139
01:24:33,334 --> 01:24:36,501
I mean, it's even forbidden
to sit in a fucking café.

1140
01:24:36,626 --> 01:24:38,042
- Uh, Thomas…
- It's preposterous!

1141
01:24:38,167 --> 01:24:39,542
We are trying
to crush a rebellion

1142
01:24:39,667 --> 01:24:41,334
which is bent
on destroying us.

1143
01:24:41,459 --> 01:24:43,959
Oh, I am fully aware of that.
What I'm saying is,

1144
01:24:44,084 --> 01:24:46,334
there has to be another way
of doing things.

1145
01:24:46,459 --> 01:24:47,667
There isn't.

1146
01:24:47,792 --> 01:24:49,167
Britain must abide

1147
01:24:49,292 --> 01:24:51,709
by the promises made
in the Balfour Declaration.

1148
01:24:51,834 --> 01:24:54,667
The Zionists provide the key
to preserving the empire.

1149
01:24:54,792 --> 01:24:58,459
Now, we must build up the SNS
Squads in Jewish settlements.

1150
01:24:58,584 --> 01:25:00,542
They are our launching pad
against the Arab villagers.

1151
01:25:00,667 --> 01:25:02,876
Oh, enough of the fucking
proselytising already!

1152
01:25:03,001 --> 01:25:04,917
Let's talk about your night
squads for a second, shall we?

1153
01:25:05,042 --> 01:25:07,251
- Hopkins…
- (Hopkins) No! Not this time!

1154
01:25:07,376 --> 01:25:08,959
Your night squads,
here's a report:

1155
01:25:09,084 --> 01:25:10,876
"Many sticks were broken
over unwilling backs,

1156
01:25:11,001 --> 01:25:12,792
"but the road
was eventually finished."

1157
01:25:12,917 --> 01:25:14,501
The Arabs are raiding
the settlements,

1158
01:25:14,626 --> 01:25:16,126
blowing up the oil pipeline,

1159
01:25:16,251 --> 01:25:17,917
the railway tracks,
our patrols.

1160
01:25:18,042 --> 01:25:19,709
This one's
a particular favourite.

1161
01:25:19,834 --> 01:25:21,126
It's beyond the pale, sir.

1162
01:25:21,251 --> 01:25:22,959
"Orders to shoot
indiscriminately

1163
01:25:23,084 --> 01:25:24,126
"and disproportionately."

1164
01:25:24,251 --> 01:25:27,084
I cannot in good conscience
sit here

1165
01:25:27,209 --> 01:25:28,501
and become complicit in this.

1166
01:25:28,626 --> 01:25:30,709
Thomas,
you are simply pro-Arab,

1167
01:25:30,834 --> 01:25:32,209
and many of us know why.

1168
01:25:32,334 --> 01:25:34,042
(Wauchope)
Gentlemen, gentlemen!

1169
01:25:34,667 --> 01:25:37,167
Personal animosities aside!

1170
01:25:39,001 --> 01:25:40,667
Sit down.

1171
01:25:42,751 --> 01:25:47,584
Let us not forget that
the rebels are getting at us…

1172
01:25:48,542 --> 01:25:52,126
… and if we do not escalate,
we will lose the upper hand.

1173
01:25:52,667 --> 01:25:54,209
That much is clear.

1174
01:25:54,334 --> 01:25:57,876
And we have an obligation
to two peoples in this land,

1175
01:25:58,001 --> 01:25:59,334
a dual obligation,

1176
01:25:59,459 --> 01:26:02,126
and if we cannot
keep them apart

1177
01:26:02,251 --> 01:26:04,001
and show them
who is in control,

1178
01:26:04,126 --> 01:26:10,001
believe me, they will
the both of them eat us alive!

1179
01:26:10,126 --> 01:26:11,792
(Indistinct shouting)

1180
01:26:14,251 --> 01:26:15,751
Here you are!

1181
01:26:15,876 --> 01:26:17,292
What in bloody hell
is going on?

1182
01:26:17,834 --> 01:26:19,376
I demand
an immediate explanation

1183
01:26:19,501 --> 01:26:21,251
for the attack
on the newspaper offices.

1184
01:26:21,376 --> 01:26:24,292
And what about your so-called
"freedom of expression"?

1185
01:26:24,417 --> 01:26:26,042
The British are importing
barbed wire

1186
01:26:26,167 --> 01:26:28,126
from Mussolini's Italy.
Did you really believe

1187
01:26:28,251 --> 01:26:29,917
that the press wouldn't
find out about this?

1188
01:26:30,042 --> 01:26:32,167
You're really worried
about fucking barbed wire

1189
01:26:32,292 --> 01:26:34,126
and your precious
newspaper —

1190
01:26:34,251 --> 01:26:36,251
that is nothing compared
to what's coming.

1191
01:26:36,376 --> 01:26:39,334
You know what?
Fuck this! I quit Palestine!

1192
01:27:19,459 --> 01:27:21,417
(Indistinct shouting)

1193
01:27:36,334 --> 01:27:38,792
(In Arabic) The villagers are
getting worn down by the raids.

1194
01:27:38,917 --> 01:27:41,376
Some don't want
to be involved anymore.

1195
01:27:41,501 --> 01:27:43,126
That's exactly what they want.

1196
01:27:43,834 --> 01:27:45,876
The resistance is winning.

1197
01:27:46,001 --> 01:27:47,584
We've taken back control
not just here,

1198
01:27:47,709 --> 01:27:49,042
but also in Hebron,

1199
01:27:49,167 --> 01:27:51,959
Bir Al-Saba. And Jerusalem.

1200
01:27:55,626 --> 01:27:57,084
What do you think, Afra?

1201
01:27:58,709 --> 01:28:00,959
I want to go.

1202
01:28:03,001 --> 01:28:05,001
Goodbye.

1203
01:28:06,751 --> 01:28:08,251
What?

1204
01:28:09,084 --> 01:28:10,876
You tell me.

1205
01:28:14,376 --> 01:28:16,667
For the first time in my life,
I'm afraid to die.

1206
01:28:18,001 --> 01:28:20,167
<i>Who gives birth never dies.</i>

1207
01:28:21,126 --> 01:28:22,876
Where does that put you?

1208
01:28:27,709 --> 01:28:29,084
