3
00:01:14,841 --> 00:01:17,936
<i>And so, in the age of fable...</i>

4
00:01:18,779 --> 00:01:19,769
<i>after the floods...</i>

5
00:01:19,846 --> 00:01:20,870
KINGDOM 1 HELL

6
00:01:21,648 --> 00:01:23,844
<i>there appeared on earth...</i>

7
00:01:24,418 --> 00:01:25,784
<i>men armed for extermination.</i>

8
00:03:31,144 --> 00:03:32,737
<i>They're horrible here...</i>

9
00:03:33,046 --> 00:03:35,413
<i>with their obsession for cutting off heads.</i>

10
00:03:36,650 --> 00:03:40,519
<i>It's amazing that anyone's survived.</i>

11
00:06:36,496 --> 00:06:38,294
<i>"Forgive us our trespasses...</i>

12
00:06:39,466 --> 00:06:42,026
<i>"as we forgive
those who trespass against us."</i>

13
00:06:46,506 --> 00:06:48,805
<i>As we forgive them and no differently.</i>

14
00:07:57,644 --> 00:08:00,204
<i>As we forgive them and no differently.</i>

15
00:08:39,085 --> 00:08:42,487
<i>We can consider death in two ways...</i>

16
00:08:46,326 --> 00:08:48,659
<i>the impossible of the possible...</i>

17
00:08:52,499 --> 00:08:54,832
<i>or the possible of the impossible.</i>

18
00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:59,662
<i>Now, "I" is someone else.</i>

19
00:09:56,729 --> 00:10:00,564
KINGDOM 2 PURGATORY

20
00:10:52,952 --> 00:10:55,888
Are you here
for the European Literary Encounters?

21
00:10:56,422 --> 00:10:57,685
I thought you made films.

22
00:10:58,091 --> 00:11:01,459
I was asked to give a talk to the students.

23
00:11:01,728 --> 00:11:02,923
On what?

24
00:11:03,429 --> 00:11:05,057
The text and the image.

25
00:11:09,936 --> 00:11:11,962
So, what's going on?

26
00:11:12,038 --> 00:11:14,439
The flight from Zagreb is late.

27
00:11:16,976 --> 00:11:21,437
If your father was an Egyptian Communist...

28
00:11:21,514 --> 00:11:23,608
he must have known Henri Curiel.

29
00:11:24,417 --> 00:11:27,148
They even followed the same itinerary.

30
00:11:27,220 --> 00:11:29,587
Your father died?

31
00:11:29,656 --> 00:11:30,646
He died, yes.

32
00:11:30,990 --> 00:11:32,754
Not the way Curiel did.

33
00:11:32,825 --> 00:11:34,293
Not a violent death.

34
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,158
So, same itinerary, meaning what?

35
00:11:36,229 --> 00:11:38,391
Egyptian, middle-class background.

36
00:11:38,498 --> 00:11:41,832
Happy childhood. Jesuit education.

37
00:11:42,101 --> 00:11:45,071
Then, exposure to Egypt's poverty...

38
00:11:45,171 --> 00:11:48,107
and the same revolt
against rabbis, king, parents....

39
00:11:48,174 --> 00:11:50,803
Is that when he came to France?

40
00:11:50,877 --> 00:11:52,311
He was partisan.

41
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:55,581
He got arrested.

42
00:11:55,648 --> 00:11:57,446
He spent a year and a half in prison.

43
00:11:57,550 --> 00:11:58,711
And your mother?

44
00:11:58,885 --> 00:12:00,319
She was more a Zionist.

45
00:12:00,386 --> 00:12:03,220
I'm going to go see what's happening
with Air Bosnia.

46
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:06,784
She took the last Cairo-Jerusalem train.

47
00:12:09,062 --> 00:12:12,294
She arrived in Jerusalem in 1948 by train?

48
00:12:12,832 --> 00:12:14,994
And those on the Exodus, by boat?

49
00:12:15,134 --> 00:12:16,625
There's exodus and Exodus.

50
00:12:18,805 --> 00:12:22,264
So you went to school in Israel?

51
00:12:22,342 --> 00:12:24,402
No, we left Israel very early on.

52
00:12:25,011 --> 00:12:28,413
My father loved France.

53
00:12:28,481 --> 00:12:30,211
I went to school in France.

54
00:12:31,784 --> 00:12:33,912
And your military service?

55
00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:35,784
I did it in Israel.

56
00:12:36,389 --> 00:12:38,688
- You went back?
- Yes.

57
00:12:38,758 --> 00:12:40,624
- With your mother?
- No, alone.

58
00:12:41,594 --> 00:12:43,324
And after your military service?

59
00:12:43,429 --> 00:12:47,730
Strangely, during my service
I realized how French I had become.

60
00:12:48,601 --> 00:12:50,661
So I went back to France.

61
00:12:50,737 --> 00:12:52,330
You found work?

62
00:12:52,538 --> 00:12:53,699
Interpreter.

63
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:56,902
French, Hebrew, Russian,
Spanish, Portuguese.

64
00:12:57,510 --> 00:12:58,978
What brings you here?

65
00:12:59,479 --> 00:13:02,506
I'm working for the Literary Encounters.

66
00:13:03,049 --> 00:13:06,679
But also checking up on my niece.

67
00:13:07,353 --> 00:13:10,790
Her mother, my sister,
asked me to check on her.

68
00:13:11,157 --> 00:13:12,147
I think they're here.

69
00:13:44,223 --> 00:13:46,124
Are you sure Mr. Darwish is here?

70
00:13:46,626 --> 00:13:49,960
You are in the same hotel.

71
00:14:02,108 --> 00:14:04,304
Mr. Goytisolo wants to see the library.

72
00:14:04,377 --> 00:14:07,108
Speaks French, Russian,
Spanish, Portuguese.

73
00:14:07,447 --> 00:14:09,279
Before his talk.

74
00:14:09,349 --> 00:14:10,578
What's it about?

75
00:14:10,650 --> 00:14:14,052
The forest of writings.

76
00:14:27,033 --> 00:14:28,763
Who are those people?

77
00:14:28,935 --> 00:14:30,631
The SFOR.

78
00:14:31,537 --> 00:14:33,472
Germans today. Americans tomorrow.

79
00:14:33,539 --> 00:14:36,441
Next week: Russians, French, Italians.

80
00:14:37,377 --> 00:14:41,007
So, Miss Lerner, ever been stung
by a dead bee?

81
00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:44,281
That's enough.

82
00:14:56,162 --> 00:14:58,722
I was wondering...

83
00:14:58,798 --> 00:15:02,599
why aren't revolutions started
by the most humane people?

84
00:15:04,237 --> 00:15:08,607
Because humane people
don't start revolutions.

85
00:15:08,875 --> 00:15:11,504
They start libraries.

86
00:15:12,011 --> 00:15:13,445
And cemeteries.

87
00:15:28,227 --> 00:15:30,594
When Mr. Goytisolo was here in 1993...

88
00:15:30,797 --> 00:15:32,925
the Serbian front lines were here.

89
00:15:35,668 --> 00:15:38,263
And they shelled from up there?

90
00:15:39,105 --> 00:15:41,097
It was easy.

91
00:15:48,781 --> 00:15:51,273
Killing a man to defend an idea...

92
00:15:51,350 --> 00:15:53,910
isn't defending an idea, it's killing a man.

93
00:15:56,789 --> 00:16:00,123
When it's all over, nothing is the same.

94
00:16:01,894 --> 00:16:05,524
Violence leaves a deep scar.

95
00:16:06,632 --> 00:16:08,999
A trace of the oblivion always remains.

96
00:16:10,403 --> 00:16:14,397
The trust in the world
that terror destroys is irretrievable.

97
00:16:16,375 --> 00:16:18,844
To see your fellow man turn on you...

98
00:16:18,911 --> 00:16:22,746
breeds a feeling of deep-rooted horror.

99
00:16:24,283 --> 00:16:26,445
Violence severs the lifeline.

100
00:16:26,919 --> 00:16:29,445
A survivor is not only changed,
he's someone else.

101
00:16:30,623 --> 00:16:34,151
The dream of survival becomes a nightmare
for he who is on the journey.

102
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:37,296
Each of us can become a danger for others.

103
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:39,757
The body is a potential weapon.

104
00:16:43,769 --> 00:16:47,297
Knowing where we can be harmed,
each of us can harm another.

105
00:17:26,812 --> 00:17:28,678
I know him!

106
00:17:30,783 --> 00:17:32,149
It's Pierre Bergounioux.

107
00:17:32,718 --> 00:17:34,778
We went to school together.

108
00:17:34,854 --> 00:17:36,720
Show him into the manager's.

109
00:17:39,625 --> 00:17:40,820
Yes, Mr. Ambassador.

110
00:17:56,709 --> 00:17:58,905
It's Mr. Bergounioux.

111
00:17:59,845 --> 00:18:01,871
The ambassador wants to see him.

112
00:18:09,822 --> 00:18:12,087
The Israeli journalist is waiting.

113
00:18:12,158 --> 00:18:14,491
They've been waiting for 8,000 years.

114
00:18:15,361 --> 00:18:16,351
And you?

115
00:18:16,662 --> 00:18:18,290
I'm presenting my book:

116
00:18:19,165 --> 00:18:21,634
<i>From Homer to Faulkner.</i>

117
00:18:28,574 --> 00:18:29,564
Tell me.

118
00:18:29,709 --> 00:18:32,508
Do writers know what they're talking about?

119
00:18:33,746 --> 00:18:36,375
Do they really know?

120
00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:39,285
Of course not.

121
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:51,159
Homer knew nothing about battlefields,
slaughters, victories, or glory.

122
00:18:51,831 --> 00:18:53,993
He is blind and bored.

123
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,895
He has to settle
for recounting what others did.

124
00:18:59,772 --> 00:19:00,762
Possibly.

125
00:19:01,907 --> 00:19:03,876
There's a contradiction.

126
00:19:04,910 --> 00:19:07,971
Those who act never have the ability...

127
00:19:08,047 --> 00:19:11,074
to say or think adequately
about what they do.

128
00:19:11,884 --> 00:19:15,821
Conversely, those who tell stories...

129
00:19:15,888 --> 00:19:17,618
don't know what they're talking about.

130
00:19:18,391 --> 00:19:19,882
Remember Mao Zedong.

131
00:20:23,589 --> 00:20:24,852
The President.

132
00:20:53,285 --> 00:20:54,776
Grivas, the car.

133
00:21:00,392 --> 00:21:01,758
Where's my scarf?

134
00:21:02,261 --> 00:21:03,627
What about me?

135
00:21:05,664 --> 00:21:10,068
A letter from my grandfather.
Not for the ambassador, for the man.

136
00:21:10,369 --> 00:21:12,668
I don't understand. Tomorrow, miss.

137
00:21:21,447 --> 00:21:22,710
Which "man"?

138
00:21:25,484 --> 00:21:28,750
Lyons. 1943. The Gestapo.

139
00:21:32,424 --> 00:21:33,653
Come with me.

140
00:21:37,363 --> 00:21:38,729
Let's go.

141
00:21:46,238 --> 00:21:47,797
Why Sarajevo?

142
00:21:49,475 --> 00:21:52,206
Because of Palestine,
and because I live in Tel Aviv.

143
00:21:53,913 --> 00:21:57,281
I wanted to see a place
where reconciliation seemed possible.

144
00:21:58,384 --> 00:22:01,081
They may not run my article.

145
00:22:01,587 --> 00:22:02,748
Possibly.

146
00:22:02,955 --> 00:22:05,322
Anyway, it's for myself.

147
00:22:07,159 --> 00:22:10,095
Who's that next to Kafka in your office?

148
00:22:10,296 --> 00:22:11,958
Someone like you, maybe.

149
00:22:12,865 --> 00:22:14,493
Hannah Arendt.

150
00:22:15,501 --> 00:22:18,869
Her friend Sholem said
she looked like 12 synagogues.

151
00:22:20,339 --> 00:22:22,365
Under the Ottoman Empire...

152
00:22:22,808 --> 00:22:26,336
the sitting room was rented to what
wasn't yet called the Jewish Agency.

153
00:22:27,546 --> 00:22:30,414
When I arrived,
they hung her portrait in homage.

154
00:22:31,817 --> 00:22:34,685
You should read
the articles she wrote in the 1950s.

155
00:22:35,788 --> 00:22:37,689
They're enlightening.

156
00:22:41,961 --> 00:22:44,021
Your grandfather....

157
00:22:44,797 --> 00:22:48,666
In 1943, when you were a student,
you hid another young man...

158
00:22:48,968 --> 00:22:50,300
and his fiancée.

159
00:22:50,669 --> 00:22:53,161
They were wanted by the Vichy police.

160
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:56,206
My mother was born in your...

161
00:22:59,178 --> 00:23:02,114
in your garret in 1945...

162
00:23:02,982 --> 00:23:04,644
then they emigrated.

163
00:23:05,818 --> 00:23:09,186
Later, you were awarded
the title of "The Righteous."

164
00:23:10,155 --> 00:23:11,953
But you turned it down.

165
00:23:12,958 --> 00:23:15,052
You were applying to <i>Normale Sup'...</i>

166
00:23:15,127 --> 00:23:18,393
and you said it was normal.

167
00:23:20,132 --> 00:23:21,122
Possibly.

168
00:23:23,202 --> 00:23:25,933
Now we want to organize a meeting.

169
00:23:26,805 --> 00:23:29,969
Not with the French diplomat,
but with a free man...

170
00:23:30,376 --> 00:23:32,140
if you've remained one.

171
00:23:32,845 --> 00:23:36,043
Not a just conversation, just a conversation.

172
00:23:37,049 --> 00:23:39,746
No military or political solutions.

173
00:23:39,818 --> 00:23:42,879
Just basic problems.

174
00:23:44,323 --> 00:23:46,815
Psychology and ethics, nothing else.

175
00:23:49,628 --> 00:23:52,393
<i>Even if I live in New York most of the time...</i>

176
00:23:53,499 --> 00:23:55,195
<i>I have constant nightmares.</i>

177
00:23:55,734 --> 00:23:58,033
<i>But a friend from Haifa says,
when he dreams...</i>

178
00:23:58,504 --> 00:24:02,271
<i>he dreams not about the enemy,
but about himself.</i>

179
00:24:03,575 --> 00:24:05,567
<i>Not about Israel, but Palestine.</i>

180
00:24:09,949 --> 00:24:11,747
<i>Can we start there?</i>

181
00:24:12,985 --> 00:24:14,112
<i>With the land...</i>

182
00:24:15,321 --> 00:24:16,687
<i>with the promise...</i>

183
00:24:17,656 --> 00:24:19,124
<i>then the atonement.</i>

184
00:24:22,628 --> 00:24:24,358
<i>Just a conversation.</i>

185
00:24:25,431 --> 00:24:27,423
- Good luck.
- To you, too.

186
00:24:28,567 --> 00:24:31,628
In the Resistance,
did the Germans inhabit your dreams...

187
00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:33,432
or only France and the French?

188
00:24:34,740 --> 00:24:37,505
And that dead language
we brought back to life?

189
00:24:37,643 --> 00:24:39,441
Is it really living?

190
00:24:39,878 --> 00:24:43,212
And your French,
which you're slowly losing...

191
00:24:43,282 --> 00:24:45,080
grammatically, anyway.

192
00:24:47,853 --> 00:24:51,790
Then we publish the conversation.
Even Haaretz won't run it.

193
00:24:51,857 --> 00:24:54,417
- It's not a bad paper.
- They won't run it.

194
00:24:54,493 --> 00:24:58,225
I'm just a stringer. But I know them.

195
00:24:58,864 --> 00:25:00,560
They want to, but they can't.

196
00:25:01,867 --> 00:25:04,496
They dream of Palestine, not Israel.

197
00:25:06,905 --> 00:25:07,895
It's too late.

198
00:25:09,341 --> 00:25:13,972
My grandfather has a rich friend.
We can print 100,000 copies, a million...

199
00:25:14,046 --> 00:25:17,574
to hear a simple conversation
between two friends.

200
00:25:17,649 --> 00:25:21,313
A dialogue no one has,
not even in his heart...

201
00:25:22,321 --> 00:25:23,653
because that heart is alone.

202
00:25:24,656 --> 00:25:28,388
A young German Catholic woman
said in 1943:

203
00:25:29,528 --> 00:25:31,963
"The dream of the individual is to be two.

204
00:25:34,033 --> 00:25:36,867
"The dream of the State is to be one."

205
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:41,807
They cut her head off.

206
00:26:07,266 --> 00:26:10,236
Forgive the confusion. The letter is clearer.

207
00:26:10,702 --> 00:26:12,796
I'm at the Holiday Inn.

208
00:26:12,871 --> 00:26:15,238
Tomorrow I photograph the Mostar Bridge.

209
00:26:15,541 --> 00:26:18,943
Grandfather's friend has a private jet.
It wouldn't take long.

210
00:26:19,311 --> 00:26:21,712
- I'd have to resign.
- Why not?

211
00:26:23,382 --> 00:26:25,180
I'll have to think it over.

212
00:26:25,317 --> 00:26:27,183
That's normal.

213
00:27:28,180 --> 00:27:30,615
The world in which we live...

214
00:27:31,483 --> 00:27:35,545
desperately needs, in order to subsist...

215
00:27:36,455 --> 00:27:40,415
the existence of the contemplated...

216
00:27:40,726 --> 00:27:42,217
and poets...

217
00:27:42,628 --> 00:27:45,655
like Valente and Lezama Lima.

218
00:28:18,664 --> 00:28:22,226
Light and darkness...

219
00:28:22,801 --> 00:28:27,205
and the revelation of hidden meaning...

220
00:28:28,073 --> 00:28:32,169
should have attained in our times...

221
00:28:32,244 --> 00:28:34,008
a remarkable identity.

222
00:29:18,156 --> 00:29:21,957
Nature is a temple
where living colonnades...

223
00:29:22,094 --> 00:29:25,895
sometimes let out confused phrases.

224
00:29:26,865 --> 00:29:30,996
Man wanders among symbols
in those glades...

225
00:29:31,069 --> 00:29:32,469
which watch him...

226
00:29:34,473 --> 00:29:36,465
with familiar gazes.

227
00:30:09,508 --> 00:30:12,171
As our age has endless destructive force...

228
00:30:12,311 --> 00:30:14,371
it now needs a revolution...

229
00:30:14,446 --> 00:30:17,610
of a comparable creative force...

230
00:30:17,683 --> 00:30:19,117
that reinforces memory...

231
00:30:19,184 --> 00:30:22,154
clarifies dreams,
and gives substance to images.

232
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,886
...that reserves for the dead a better fate...

233
00:31:07,132 --> 00:31:10,034
gives ephemera a splendid
sense of its transparency...

234
00:31:10,268 --> 00:31:11,964
and escorts the living...

235
00:31:12,037 --> 00:31:14,905
on a safer,
more serene crossing of darkness.

236
00:34:13,919 --> 00:34:15,512
Light...

237
00:34:15,587 --> 00:34:19,615
is the first visible animal of the invisible.

238
00:34:47,919 --> 00:34:49,717
You never answer.

239
00:34:55,427 --> 00:34:56,588
But I will say nothing.

240
00:34:58,396 --> 00:35:00,024
What I say is nothing.

241
00:35:00,966 --> 00:35:03,026
See to it that I can speak.

242
00:35:04,169 --> 00:35:06,798
Any idea how I can go about it?

243
00:35:09,274 --> 00:35:11,175
Convince me that you hear me.

244
00:35:12,077 --> 00:35:13,204
Talk to me.

245
00:35:14,646 --> 00:35:17,115
How can I talk if you don't hear me?

246
00:36:46,638 --> 00:36:48,334
Mahmoud Darwish...

247
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,907
you once wrote
that he who writes his story...

248
00:36:52,977 --> 00:36:55,105
inherits the land of that story.

249
00:36:58,416 --> 00:37:02,649
Do you not believe in the connection
that the Israeli people have with this land?

250
00:37:04,422 --> 00:37:08,018
You say there's no more room for Homer...

251
00:37:08,626 --> 00:37:11,755
and you are the Trojans' bard...

252
00:37:12,330 --> 00:37:14,322
and you love the vanquished.

253
00:37:14,466 --> 00:37:17,334
You're talking like a Jew.

254
00:37:25,744 --> 00:37:29,647
Nowadays, that's seen
as something positive.

255
00:37:30,815 --> 00:37:33,410
Truth has two faces.

256
00:37:34,619 --> 00:37:38,351
We heard a story.

257
00:37:39,758 --> 00:37:43,991
Sometimes we also heard
the Trojan victim speaking...

258
00:37:44,763 --> 00:37:46,629
through the mouth of the Greek Euripides.

259
00:37:51,536 --> 00:37:54,438
I'm looking for a Trojan poet.

260
00:37:55,039 --> 00:37:57,565
Troy didn't tell its story.

261
00:37:59,043 --> 00:38:00,636
I ask myself...

262
00:38:01,279 --> 00:38:04,647
does a land...

263
00:38:05,383 --> 00:38:08,478
that has great poets...

264
00:38:08,987 --> 00:38:13,482
have the right to conquer a people?

265
00:38:14,292 --> 00:38:19,856
Is the absence of poetry...

266
00:38:20,799 --> 00:38:24,292
sufficient reason to defeat them?

267
00:38:29,073 --> 00:38:33,704
Is poetry patriotic?

268
00:38:35,713 --> 00:38:38,615
Can a people be strong...

269
00:38:39,450 --> 00:38:41,180
without having its own poetry?

270
00:38:45,623 --> 00:38:47,455
I was a child of a people...

271
00:38:48,326 --> 00:38:51,694
that had not been recognized until then.

272
00:38:53,932 --> 00:38:58,427
And I wanted to speak
in the name of the absentee...

273
00:38:59,003 --> 00:39:01,029
in the name of the Trojan people.

274
00:39:02,707 --> 00:39:06,041
There's more inspiration and humanity...

275
00:39:07,312 --> 00:39:11,682
in defeat than there is in victory.

276
00:39:15,086 --> 00:39:19,046
Even in defeat there is poetry.

277
00:39:19,791 --> 00:39:23,023
And probably better poetry.

278
00:39:24,095 --> 00:39:28,191
If I belonged to the victor's camp...

279
00:39:29,267 --> 00:39:32,897
I'd demonstrate my support for the victims.

280
00:39:34,606 --> 00:39:39,135
Do you know why
we Palestinians are famous?

281
00:39:40,411 --> 00:39:43,939
Because you are our enemy.

282
00:39:45,083 --> 00:39:48,679
The interest is in you...

283
00:39:49,087 --> 00:39:50,988
not in me.

284
00:39:58,096 --> 00:40:01,260
So we have the misfortune...

285
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,601
of having Israel as an enemy...

286
00:40:06,504 --> 00:40:10,236
because she has strong allies.

287
00:40:11,342 --> 00:40:14,801
So many we can't even count.

288
00:40:15,713 --> 00:40:18,911
And we have the good fortune...

289
00:40:18,983 --> 00:40:22,681
of having Israel as our enemy.

290
00:40:22,754 --> 00:40:26,054
Because Jews are the center of interest
of the world.

291
00:40:26,925 --> 00:40:32,523
That's why you've brought us
defeat and renown.

292
00:40:36,901 --> 00:40:38,802
You defeated us.

293
00:40:40,238 --> 00:40:42,298
But you gave us renown.

294
00:40:45,777 --> 00:40:47,712
We are your propaganda ministry.

295
00:40:50,381 --> 00:40:53,044
The world is interested in you...

296
00:40:53,217 --> 00:40:56,517
not us.

297
00:40:57,655 --> 00:41:02,525
I have no illusions.

298
00:41:07,365 --> 00:41:11,063
In <i>Palestine as a Metaphor...</i>

299
00:41:11,836 --> 00:41:15,534
you write: "If they defeat us in poetry...

300
00:41:15,606 --> 00:41:17,370
"then it's the end."

301
00:41:18,343 --> 00:41:22,678
There was probably an error,
for it to be this way.

302
00:41:23,681 --> 00:41:26,515
But there's another meaning:

303
00:41:27,585 --> 00:41:32,455
Neither a victim nor a defeat...

304
00:41:33,157 --> 00:41:35,649
can be gauged in military terms.

305
00:41:44,635 --> 00:41:46,297
The Turkish Prime Minister...

306
00:41:46,371 --> 00:41:49,603
once compared minarets to bayonets.

307
00:41:49,674 --> 00:41:53,441
I bear the obedient language like a cloud.

308
00:42:56,607 --> 00:42:59,304
<i>Communism existed once.</i>

309
00:42:59,944 --> 00:43:03,540
<i>Communism existed once,
for two times 45 minutes...</i>

310
00:43:04,348 --> 00:43:05,816
<i>at Wembley Stadium...</i>

311
00:43:05,883 --> 00:43:09,684
<i>when Budapest's Honved
beat England 6 to 3.</i>

312
00:43:10,488 --> 00:43:12,582
<i>The English played individually...</i>

313
00:43:12,824 --> 00:43:14,588
<i>the Hungarians played together.</i>

314
00:43:29,240 --> 00:43:32,404
Where do you think this photo was taken?

315
00:43:43,788 --> 00:43:47,281
No, Richmond, Virginia. 1865.

316
00:43:48,159 --> 00:43:51,891
The American Civil War.
North against South.

317
00:43:53,831 --> 00:43:56,995
<i>It was a peasant girl
during the Second Empire...</i>

318
00:43:57,368 --> 00:43:59,769
<i>who claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary.</i>

319
00:44:00,371 --> 00:44:02,306
<i>They asked what she looked like.</i>

320
00:44:02,507 --> 00:44:04,999
<i>Bernadette said: "I can't describe her."</i>

321
00:44:05,910 --> 00:44:08,971
<i>So the mother superior
and the bishop showed her...</i>

322
00:44:10,948 --> 00:44:14,009
<i>plates of great religious paintings.</i>

323
00:44:14,252 --> 00:44:17,552
<i>Raphael's Virgin, Murillo's.</i>

324
00:44:18,890 --> 00:44:21,553
<i>Each time, Bernadette said: "That's not her."</i>

325
00:44:23,394 --> 00:44:26,364
<i>And suddenly,
the</i> Virgin of Cambrai <i>came up.</i>

326
00:44:27,899 --> 00:44:28,889
<i>An icon.</i>

327
00:44:30,301 --> 00:44:33,237
<i>Bernadette fell to her knees:
"It's her, Your Grace."</i>

328
00:44:34,105 --> 00:44:35,733
<i>No movement.</i>

329
00:44:35,940 --> 00:44:38,603
<i>No depth, no artifice.</i>

330
00:44:38,910 --> 00:44:40,276
<i>The sacred.</i>

331
00:44:51,455 --> 00:44:53,481
<i>Yes, the image is joy.</i>

332
00:44:53,558 --> 00:44:55,823
<i>But beside it, lies the void.</i>

333
00:44:56,327 --> 00:45:00,321
<i>All the power of an image
can only be expressed through it.</i>

334
00:45:02,667 --> 00:45:04,226
They say our language...

335
00:45:04,368 --> 00:45:08,305
arbitrarily divides up things in reality.

336
00:45:09,740 --> 00:45:13,142
And they say this as if it were our fault.

337
00:45:23,621 --> 00:45:27,558
You may have studied
Racine's <i>Phaedra</i> in French.

338
00:45:32,863 --> 00:45:36,265
"When you have learnt my crime,
my fate, my shame...

339
00:45:36,867 --> 00:45:40,565
"I'll die no less but with a guiltier name."

340
00:45:52,083 --> 00:45:55,110
Try to see.

341
00:45:55,753 --> 00:45:59,656
Try to imagine.

342
00:46:06,397 --> 00:46:09,834
In the first case, you say: Look at that.

343
00:46:14,238 --> 00:46:17,140
In the second, you say: Close your eyes.

344
00:46:26,917 --> 00:46:30,752
The shot and reverse shot
are basics of film grammar.

345
00:46:35,226 --> 00:46:39,095
But look closely at these shots
from the Hawks movie...

346
00:46:43,367 --> 00:46:47,964
you'll see that it's the same thing twice.

347
00:46:52,443 --> 00:46:55,242
That's because the director is incapable...

348
00:46:55,546 --> 00:46:58,744
of seeing the difference
between a man and a woman.

349
00:47:04,922 --> 00:47:07,892
That are alike.

350
00:47:12,797 --> 00:47:15,323
<i>For instance, two pictures...</i>

351
00:47:16,133 --> 00:47:18,796
of the same moment in history.

352
00:47:26,210 --> 00:47:29,977
Then you see that truth has two faces.

353
00:47:30,581 --> 00:47:32,311
In my opinion...

354
00:47:33,484 --> 00:47:37,114
it's because those who do the books
are mere accountants.

355
00:47:38,956 --> 00:47:41,516
Besides, Balzac writes...

356
00:47:41,592 --> 00:47:44,858
about entries in the Great Ledger.

357
00:47:45,096 --> 00:47:46,496
<i>The Tables of the Law.</i>

358
00:47:47,365 --> 00:47:49,197
<i>The Holy Scriptures.</i>

359
00:47:49,700 --> 00:47:51,293
<i>The People of the Book.</i>

362
00:48:15,326 --> 00:48:17,227
For example, in 1948...

363
00:48:17,294 --> 00:48:18,956
the Israelites walked in the water...

364
00:48:19,263 --> 00:48:21,027
to reach the Holy Land.

365
00:48:21,699 --> 00:48:24,863
The Palestinians walked
in the water to drown.

366
00:48:26,470 --> 00:48:28,996
Shot and reverse shot.

367
00:48:35,546 --> 00:48:38,106
The Jews become the stuff of fiction...

368
00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:41,144
the Palestinians, of documentary.

369
00:49:01,405 --> 00:49:03,840
We say the facts speak for themselves.

370
00:49:04,175 --> 00:49:06,576
But Celine said:

371
00:49:07,445 --> 00:49:09,380
"Sadly, not for much longer."

372
00:49:10,748 --> 00:49:13,047
And that was in 1936.

373
00:49:18,722 --> 00:49:21,886
Because the field of text...

374
00:49:22,426 --> 00:49:24,895
had already covered the field of vision.

375
00:49:29,900 --> 00:49:31,368
In 1938...

376
00:49:32,036 --> 00:49:36,337
Heisenberg and Borg were walking
in the Danish countryside...

377
00:49:36,407 --> 00:49:38,103
talking about physics.

378
00:49:43,581 --> 00:49:46,141
They came to Elsinore Castle.

379
00:49:47,818 --> 00:49:49,150
The German scientist said:

380
00:49:49,220 --> 00:49:52,247
"Oh, there's nothing special
about this castle!"

381
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,592
<i>The Danish physicist said:</i>

382
00:49:58,729 --> 00:50:03,360
<i>"Yes, but if you say 'Hamlet's castle'...</i>

383
00:50:03,868 --> 00:50:06,064
<i>"then it becomes special."</i>

384
00:50:18,649 --> 00:50:21,983
Elsinore the real, Hamlet the imaginary.

385
00:50:24,121 --> 00:50:25,987
Shot and reverse shot.

386
00:50:26,957 --> 00:50:29,085
Imaginary: certainty.

387
00:50:29,393 --> 00:50:31,328
Reality: uncertainty.

388
00:50:33,130 --> 00:50:35,099
The principle of cinema...

389
00:50:35,799 --> 00:50:39,497
go towards the light
and shine it on our night.

390
00:50:40,871 --> 00:50:42,134
Our music.

391
00:50:42,506 --> 00:50:44,338
AND DELIVERANCE?

392
00:50:45,776 --> 00:50:49,679
AND VICTORY?

393
00:51:01,992 --> 00:51:06,430
THAT WILL BE MY MARTYRDOM

394
00:51:19,777 --> 00:51:21,905
TONIGHT I WILL BE IN HEAVEN

395
00:51:30,955 --> 00:51:35,916
Can the new little digital cameras
save the cinema?

396
00:52:46,730 --> 00:52:49,097
Yes, they all died very young.

397
00:53:21,598 --> 00:53:24,625
The bridge was designed
under the Ottoman Empire...

398
00:53:24,702 --> 00:53:27,797
in 1566...

399
00:53:27,871 --> 00:53:31,865
by Hajrudin,
a student of the great architect Sinan...

400
00:53:32,042 --> 00:53:34,637
in the time of Suleyman the Magnificent.

401
00:53:34,745 --> 00:53:37,977
The city of Mostar was named after it.

402
00:53:38,215 --> 00:53:41,185
In Slavic languages, <i>"most"</i> means "bridge."

403
00:53:44,121 --> 00:53:45,646
We called it the "Old Man"...

404
00:53:45,723 --> 00:53:48,420
as we would a friend or a father.

405
00:53:51,462 --> 00:53:53,556
We would meet on the "Old Man."

406
00:53:56,667 --> 00:53:58,898
The more daring among us...

407
00:53:59,069 --> 00:54:00,970
<i>would dive off the bridge.</i>

408
00:54:01,305 --> 00:54:03,331
<i>The greenest water in the world.</i>

409
00:54:35,973 --> 00:54:38,704
<i>It's not a question
of re-establishing tourism...</i>

410
00:54:38,776 --> 00:54:40,472
<i>between the banks of the Neretva.</i>

411
00:54:40,911 --> 00:54:43,471
<i>We must at once restore the past...</i>

412
00:54:44,314 --> 00:54:46,306
<i>and make the future possible.</i>

413
00:54:47,184 --> 00:54:49,380
<i>Combine the pain...</i>

414
00:54:49,453 --> 00:54:51,319
<i>and the guilt.</i>

415
00:54:52,389 --> 00:54:55,291
<i>Two faces and one truth: the bridge.</i>

416
00:54:58,362 --> 00:54:59,955
It seems difficult.

417
00:55:04,701 --> 00:55:07,227
"If the face symbolizes 'Thou shalt not kill'...

418
00:55:08,872 --> 00:55:11,137
"how can we make a face with stones?"

419
00:55:11,708 --> 00:55:14,610
<i>The relationship between me
and the Other isn't symmetrical.</i>

420
00:55:18,148 --> 00:55:20,777
<i>At first, the Other matters little...</i>

421
00:55:21,185 --> 00:55:22,380
<i>with respect to me.</i>

422
00:55:25,122 --> 00:55:26,590
<i>That's his business.</i>

423
00:55:27,691 --> 00:55:30,160
<i>For me, he's the one I'm responsible for.</i>

424
00:55:30,594 --> 00:55:33,029
<i>Here, a Muslim and a Croatian.</i>

425
00:55:34,731 --> 00:55:37,223
We are all guilty...

426
00:55:38,068 --> 00:55:40,264
for everything and for everyone.

427
00:55:41,071 --> 00:55:43,267
And myself more than others.

428
00:55:47,110 --> 00:55:49,409
The stones were salvaged in two phases.

429
00:55:49,479 --> 00:55:52,677
In June 1997 and August 1999.

430
00:55:54,384 --> 00:55:57,650
Each stone was identified on a card...

431
00:55:57,788 --> 00:56:00,656
on which each detail was noted.

432
00:56:03,794 --> 00:56:07,128
Its position in the water,
its position in the structure...

433
00:56:07,865 --> 00:56:10,232
and a description of each face...

434
00:56:10,300 --> 00:56:12,394
on which clamps were attached.

435
00:56:18,075 --> 00:56:21,068
It was like rediscovering
the origin of language.

436
00:56:21,545 --> 00:56:24,947
You know that before writing
was invented at Sumer...

437
00:56:25,315 --> 00:56:28,376
they spoke of the past
using the word "after"...

438
00:56:28,952 --> 00:56:31,512
and for the future the word "before."

439
00:56:32,823 --> 00:56:34,257
No, I didn't know.

440
00:57:53,537 --> 00:57:55,005
<i>It is...</i>

441
00:57:55,205 --> 00:57:56,366
<i>like...</i>

442
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:58,538
<i>an image...</i>

443
00:57:59,443 --> 00:58:01,105
<i>but a distant one.</i>

444
00:58:02,546 --> 00:58:04,811
<i>There are two people side by side.</i>

445
00:58:06,883 --> 00:58:08,749
<i>I'm next to her.</i>

446
00:58:09,619 --> 00:58:11,315
<i>I never saw her before.</i>

447
00:58:11,822 --> 00:58:13,518
<i>I recognize myself.</i>

448
00:58:15,158 --> 00:58:17,525
<i>But I have no memory of all that.</i>

449
00:58:18,595 --> 00:58:20,530
<i>It must be far from here.</i>

450
00:58:21,365 --> 00:58:22,856
<i>Or later on.</i>

451
00:58:49,359 --> 00:58:51,021
<i>I don't give a damn!</i>

452
00:59:05,742 --> 00:59:07,973
<i>The state of our poverty is clearer.</i>

453
00:59:14,851 --> 00:59:18,549
<i>The landscape is strewn with wire,
the sky is red with explosions.</i>

454
00:59:20,057 --> 00:59:23,357
<i>As this ruin didn't spare
the very notion of culture...</i>

455
00:59:24,127 --> 00:59:26,255
<i>we must boldly dismiss it.</i>

456
00:59:27,731 --> 00:59:29,927
<i>We have to make do with very little.</i>

457
00:59:30,634 --> 00:59:34,230
<i>If the house is already on fire,
it's mad to try to save the furniture.</i>

458
00:59:34,805 --> 00:59:38,367
<i>The lucky ones are the defeated.</i>

459
01:00:30,093 --> 01:00:32,255
I don't feel like speaking Russian.

460
01:00:35,932 --> 01:00:37,958
I distrust the Russian language.

461
01:00:43,039 --> 01:00:45,031
In fact, I only regret...

462
01:00:45,976 --> 01:00:49,242
that the powerful notion
the Russians have of evil...

463
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,417
alienates them from conscience.
This is due to Russian syntax.

464
01:00:55,852 --> 01:00:59,448
It was in case someone was listening.
There are still microphones.

465
01:00:59,890 --> 01:01:02,621
If anyone understands me,
then I wasn't clear.

466
01:01:05,195 --> 01:01:08,529
"But she didn't feel like she was falling.

467
01:01:09,432 --> 01:01:11,526
"On the contrary, it seemed...

468
01:01:12,068 --> 01:01:16,028
"as if the ground was rising toward her
with appalling speed."

469
01:01:20,210 --> 01:01:23,339
Suicide is the only truly serious
philosophical problem.

470
01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,640
You saying that as a Jew,
or as a Frenchwoman?

471
01:01:27,651 --> 01:01:29,381
I don't quite know.

472
01:01:32,923 --> 01:01:34,892
Two things hold me back:

473
01:01:35,392 --> 01:01:38,089
one minor, the other major...

474
01:01:38,161 --> 01:01:40,187
but the minor one is major, too.

475
01:01:41,932 --> 01:01:43,457
What's the minor one?

476
01:01:44,634 --> 01:01:46,102
The pain.

477
01:01:49,005 --> 01:01:50,906
Is it that important?

478
01:01:52,075 --> 01:01:54,442
Can't you kill yourself without pain?

479
01:01:56,546 --> 01:01:59,243
And the second reason, the major one?

480
01:01:59,849 --> 01:02:01,181
The next world.

481
01:02:06,089 --> 01:02:08,422
That's nothing.

482
01:02:08,725 --> 01:02:10,819
Just the next world.

483
01:02:11,962 --> 01:02:14,955
Aren't there people
who think about the next world?

484
01:02:15,031 --> 01:02:17,523
They can only judge for themselves.

485
01:02:18,568 --> 01:02:22,335
There will be total liberty
when it's the same to live or die.

486
01:02:22,872 --> 01:02:24,238
That's the goal.

487
01:02:25,075 --> 01:02:26,065
Funny goal.

488
01:02:27,677 --> 01:02:30,977
But then it might turn out
no one wants to live.

489
01:02:31,047 --> 01:02:32,276
No one.

490
01:02:35,785 --> 01:02:38,380
Anyone can act as if there's no God...

491
01:02:40,390 --> 01:02:41,688
there is nothing...

492
01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:43,727
but no one has ever tried yet.

493
01:02:45,095 --> 01:02:46,620
Not true.

494
01:02:46,930 --> 01:02:49,559
Millions have been killed
or killed themselves.

495
01:02:49,633 --> 01:02:52,660
Yes, but always for other reasons,
always out of terror...

496
01:02:53,036 --> 01:02:54,664
never to kill that terror.

497
01:02:55,372 --> 01:02:56,670
Do you love children?

498
01:02:58,642 --> 01:03:00,372
Then you love life.

499
01:03:00,510 --> 01:03:02,342
Yes, I love life. Why?

500
01:03:02,479 --> 01:03:04,414
But you want to kill yourself.

501
01:03:05,115 --> 01:03:06,549
What's that got to do with it?

502
01:03:06,983 --> 01:03:09,179
Life is one thing, death another.

503
01:03:10,487 --> 01:03:12,854
Life exists and death doesn't.

504
01:03:14,357 --> 01:03:16,087
I see you know your lines.

505
01:03:17,761 --> 01:03:19,161
In Hebrew, too?

506
01:03:20,430 --> 01:03:22,126
We're not tourists.

507
01:03:24,868 --> 01:03:27,702
- What does Akhim think?
- He will help me.

508
01:03:28,571 --> 01:03:30,472
Will he go to Jerusalem with you?

509
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,734
No, he'll stay here. We don't agree.

510
01:03:32,809 --> 01:03:34,209
But he'll help me.

511
01:03:37,147 --> 01:03:40,174
I go back to Paris Wednesday.
The meetings are over.

512
01:03:41,484 --> 01:03:42,474
Good luck, Olga.

513
01:03:42,585 --> 01:03:43,575
Yes, Uncle Ramos.

514
01:03:44,254 --> 01:03:45,950
Call when you like.

515
01:03:47,257 --> 01:03:49,624
Yes, that's the definition.

516
01:03:49,726 --> 01:03:51,786
We are incapable of liberating ourselves.

517
01:03:53,730 --> 01:03:56,996
We shot a video, if you want a copy.
Where're you staying?

518
01:03:57,867 --> 01:04:01,702
Give it to Rusmir, he'll get it to me.
I stay till Saturday.

519
01:04:01,771 --> 01:04:02,795
Champagne.

520
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,361
We're incapable of freeing ourselves...

521
01:04:26,629 --> 01:04:28,757
and we call that democracy.

522
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,634
For Claude Lefort,
since modern democracies...

523
01:04:34,371 --> 01:04:38,934
instituted politics as a separate
activity and field of thought...

524
01:04:39,008 --> 01:04:41,910
modern democracies
are prone to totalitarianism.

525
01:04:51,688 --> 01:04:53,179
I'd say the same.

526
01:04:54,157 --> 01:04:57,958
I only believe stories whose witnesses
would have their throats cut.

527
01:05:00,230 --> 01:05:02,893
Victim or criminal, there's no other choice.

528
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:07,027
One can always avoid
being tried as a criminal...

529
01:05:07,570 --> 01:05:09,539
by accusing an ever bigger one...

530
01:05:09,606 --> 01:05:12,735
a monster you're actually the victim of.

531
01:05:13,843 --> 01:05:18,474
The life of man is but a battle for existence
with being vanquished the only certainty.

532
01:05:19,382 --> 01:05:22,546
Without getting so cynical.

533
01:05:23,420 --> 01:05:25,184
It's virtually intolerable...

534
01:05:25,321 --> 01:05:28,621
to hear victims without anger
or disgust be reduced to this.

535
01:05:29,092 --> 01:05:30,958
Due to, or despite, oneself.

536
01:05:31,394 --> 01:05:34,091
That's why we give the floor to victims...

537
01:05:34,597 --> 01:05:37,396
who are invited to speak as victims.

538
01:05:50,380 --> 01:05:52,349
The world is now split in two...

539
01:05:53,550 --> 01:05:56,611
between those who line up
to voice their misery...

540
01:05:58,221 --> 01:06:00,486
and those for whom this public display...

541
01:06:02,225 --> 01:06:05,252
provides a daily dose of moral comfort...

542
01:06:05,695 --> 01:06:07,186
to their domination.

543
01:06:08,298 --> 01:06:11,462
We always discuss the key to the problem,
never the lock.

544
01:06:13,870 --> 01:06:15,600
What lies ahead of us now...

545
01:06:17,006 --> 01:06:19,032
is like a story without thought...

546
01:06:19,509 --> 01:06:22,172
as if bequeathed by an impossible will.

547
01:06:24,380 --> 01:06:27,441
More than ever, we're faced with the void.

548
01:08:23,466 --> 01:08:26,595
I wanted to say goodbye, and thank you.

549
01:08:26,836 --> 01:08:29,067
Thank you and goodbye.

550
01:08:29,138 --> 01:08:30,629
She has something to give you.

551
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:32,708
From Olga.

552
01:08:32,842 --> 01:08:35,937
The film she made with the little camera.

553
01:08:36,646 --> 01:08:37,944
That's nice.

554
01:08:38,615 --> 01:08:40,413
Thank her for me.

555
01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:45,908
<i>I'm calling from Paris.</i>

556
01:09:45,982 --> 01:09:47,575
<i>Ramos Garcia.</i>

557
01:09:51,788 --> 01:09:53,654
<i>Sure, three weeks ago.</i>

558
01:09:53,790 --> 01:09:56,157
<i>Sarajevo. I was translating.</i>

559
01:09:58,161 --> 01:10:01,188
<i>I'm in Paris. Did you watch TVlast night?</i>

560
01:10:02,598 --> 01:10:04,692
<i>Hostages were taken in Jerusalem.</i>

561
01:10:07,303 --> 01:10:08,601
<i>In a cinema.</i>

562
01:10:08,805 --> 01:10:10,899
<i>A French Jewish girl of Russian descent.</i>

563
01:10:11,374 --> 01:10:13,309
<i>She wanted to blow herself up.</i>

564
01:10:18,614 --> 01:10:20,480
<i>It was Olga, I'm sure of it.</i>

565
01:10:22,185 --> 01:10:26,145
<i>You met her one night.
She wanted to give you a DVD. It's her.</i>

566
01:10:31,694 --> 01:10:33,287
How do you know?

567
01:10:33,596 --> 01:10:34,894
<i>I'm sure of it.</i>

568
01:10:35,031 --> 01:10:37,728
<i>She gave the audience
five minutes to get out.</i>

569
01:10:38,267 --> 01:10:41,328
<i>She said if there was one Israeli
who'd die with her...</i>

570
01:10:41,471 --> 01:10:43,736
<i>for peace, not for war, she'd be happy.</i>

571
01:10:44,574 --> 01:10:45,803
Then what?

572
01:10:46,109 --> 01:10:48,578
<i>Everyone left, leaving her alone.</i>

573
01:10:50,813 --> 01:10:52,475
<i>She had a big red shoulder bag.</i>

574
01:10:52,849 --> 01:10:54,977
<i>The marksmen arrived and killed her...</i>

575
01:10:55,284 --> 01:10:58,743
<i>before she could open her bag.
It contained only books.</i>

576
01:11:47,970 --> 01:11:52,032
KINGDOM 3 PARADISE

577
01:12:21,437 --> 01:12:23,599
<i>There are two people, side by side.</i>

578
01:12:27,910 --> 01:12:29,674
<i>I'm next to her.</i>

579
01:12:30,646 --> 01:12:32,581
<i>I never saw her before...</i>

580
01:12:33,216 --> 01:12:34,844
<i>but I recognize myself.</i>

581
01:12:36,118 --> 01:12:37,279
<i>It is...</i>

582
01:12:37,854 --> 01:12:39,015
<i>like...</i>

583
01:12:39,856 --> 01:12:41,017
<i>an image.</i>

584
01:12:44,460 --> 01:12:45,985
<i>But a distant one.</i>

585
01:16:23,279 --> 01:16:25,805
Street of No Return

586
01:18:02,178 --> 01:18:04,204
<i>It was a fine, clear day.</i>

587
01:18:05,748 --> 01:18:07,649
<i>You could see a long way off.</i>

588
01:18:07,746 --> 01:18:10,370
<i>But not as far as Olga had gone.</i>
