Original subtitles

Vendetta, "Thar" in Arabic:

Redeeming honor or avenging an injustice that has been committed.

ARABIC "I seek refuge in Allah

from Satan, the accursed. In the Name of Allah,

the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful. Master of the Day of Judgment.

You alone we worship and You alone we ask for help.

Guide us along the Straight Path, the Path of those You have blessed

not of those who have evoked Your anger or of those who are astray."

Amen.

"Al-Fatiha for the soul of Yusef Salem Mohammed al-Heib.

To God we belong and to God we shall return."

Yusef, my love,

soon, God willing,

I will avenge you.

But just rest, be at peace.

"You are entering a Jewish town.

No Arabs allowed. You've been warned."

May Allah forgive you, Salem.

-What are you doing here, psycho?! -I'm the psycho? You moron...

-You almost blew my head off! -Well, you snuck into my home.

I wasn't sure it's the right address. Your phone is off

and your neighbors aren't very neighborly.

You lousy detective.

-It's nice and quiet here. -Yep.

Is your mind quiet as well?

I have good days and bad.

Mine get worse each day.

You know, a father loves all his children,

-but Yusef was special. -Yep.

I have no one to talk to at home.

My wife has no patience for my sadness anymore.

So you've come to me?

Wanna take me as your second wife, Abu Mussa?

How have you been? Talking to God every day?

I'm waiting for Him to take me.

God is grand, Abu Mussa. I'm exhausted.

I'm looking for answers.

Actually...

I have something that might interest you.

There was a breakthrough in my investigation.

-I got something. -What is it?

A new video from your and Hagit's home.

It captured Yusef and the son of a bitch who did this.

His name is Eyad Dahduh.

The bastard escaped from Gaza through the Rafah crossing

during the second ceasefire, dressed as a wounded civilian.

Today he lives in Marseille.

He has a business, a family, as if nothing happened.

Where did you get this?

A solid source emailed it to me.

Pay these folks a million shekels and they'll tell you anything you want,

-don't you know that? -Believe me,

all the shitty leads I got these last two years were a lie,

but this one is real. See for yourself.

My source tells me he got it from him.

I want you to come with me to Marseille.

You want me to come with you to Marseille?

You want me to come with you to Marseille? And do what?

What do you want from me?

What do you want from me, Abu Mussa?!

Are you just gonna let that bastard live it up in Marseille?!

I'm not in that place anymore, Salem.

Eli...

this is a vendetta!

You of all people should know what a vendetta is.

If we don't do it, that day will haunt us forever.

Your family deserves this vendetta.

Well done.

Keep looking.

Now try to focus on the memory that came up and describe it to me.

I'm standing outside,

outside the container,

looking inside.

What do you see inside?

There's a girl inside.

They're dead.

They're all dead.

Describe them to me.

They're all kids.

Beautiful kids.

My children's ages.

Blood everywhere.

And suddenly, an explosion.

Doron, where are you in all that?

Stay with me, Doron. What do you see?

Lots of smoke

and there's a smell...

A smell? Of what?

Meat.

Yes.

I can't do it. I don't get why I can't recall it.

I'm trying to connect the dots, but I'm unable to.

You're making good progress. We're getting there slowly, it's okay.

I understand you want to connect it all, just go slow.

How could eight hours of my life just vanish?!

Doron, it's a process and we're on the right track.

Don't judge yourself.

I don't know if I managed to save her.

And it's driving me crazy.

I got you something. It's in the back.

-For me? -Yep, it's in the white bag.

Is it my birthday and I forgot?

You like?

Yes.

Buttons, light blue...

You're always wearing those dark t-shirts. You should bring out your beautiful eyes.

Thank you.

Is that Eli? Why is he here?

-Were you guys supposed to meet here? -Nope.

Look who's here!

The Messiah on a pickup truck.

The donkey wouldn't start.

-I've missed you. -Me too.

A lot.

So can I hug you or is that against your religion?

Gali, you're family, it's fine.

Okay, enough. Let's go.

Don't move your head, only your eyes.

As I increase the speed,

the memories slowly come up.

Ouch!

But it really works, bro.

I focus, the image comes up, and I put together that day's timeline.

For real?

Good for you, bro.

How've you been, Eli?

-Salem came to see me today. -Really?

How's he doing?

Last time I saw him, he was a wreck.

Forget it, bro. You don't know what it's like to lose a child.

May you never know, for God's sake.

Is he still looking for the Nukhbas who murdered Yusef?

-With all his might. -You don't say.

And do what?

I don't know.

A vendetta?

Eli, don't let him influence you.

He keeps believing his Bedouin source.

Bro, you and Salem endured the harshest thing ever,

but nothing can bring back Hagit and the kids.

Open up!

We won't hurt you!

We're true to the ways of Allah!

"In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful..."

You son of a bitch!

Hey... you're awake.

They're clean.

Yes...

Are you okay?

I'm worried about Eli.

Why?

When he was here, he spoke about Salem and his son.

I'll go check on him tomorrow morning.

But you've got therapy.

It's fine, I'll talk with Dr. Peled.

Doron, it's not your fault.

You don't have to be responsible for him.

I know.

But he's all alone.

He hasn't got a Gali by his side.

MARSEILLE

Next, please.

What is the purpose of your trip?

-Visiting my friends. -Where do they live?

Remove your hat.

Please proceed to the security checkpoint.

Is there any problem?

Sir, move to checkpoint.

Next, please.

"Eliyahu"

Be careful about the book.

Take off your shoes.

Next, please.

Did they give you a rectal exam?

Just go.

You know, every time I return to Israel they give me that security check.

Good, that's how you Arabs should be treated...

Come on, drive.

For fuck's sake...

I was just at Eli's.

Did it calm you down?

Not really. He's not there and he's not answering my calls.

The town kids said he left last night.

Okay, so where are you?

On my way to Rahat, to meet with Salem.

Maybe these two whackos are there together.

Okay.

We'll talk later, okay?

Bye.

Bye, honey.

RAHAT

Mussa, peace be upon you.

I used to work with your dad. May I come in?

-Peace be upon you. -Upon you be peace.

I'm Doron Kabilio.

I know who you are.

I saw you once.

Can we talk?

If you please.

Ever since Yusef died,

he's been obsessing over a vendetta.

When did you last see him?

I saw him pack a suitcase last night.

When I woke up, he was gone, and I can't reach him.

And what was he like...

these past few days?

Come, I want to show you something.

He's the only one who had a key. He wouldn't let anyone else in.

He'd seclude himself for hours in here.

"The Gaza war" "An existential failure shocks the state"

He offered a one million shekel reward

for any information about the Nukhbas who killed Yusef.

-Did he get many calls? -Dozens,

maybe hundreds.

And he checked them all out, one by one, it's all he's been doing.

Is this his laptop?

Yes.

But I don't know the password.

-Can I take it? -Where?

To my friend, he knows computers.

Alright.

-Peace be upon you. -Upon you be peace.

-Is Rami here? -Who's asking?

"The Bedouin".

Wait there.

Go in.

Peace be upon you.

Where's the money?

It's all there. Here you go.

Your turn.

That's his restaurant.

Go there at the end of the day, when the place is empty,

because he's got some very "heavy" patrons.

How'd you find him?

Many Gazans arrived here since the war.

They keep quiet, they know their place.

Only this Dahduh never keeps his mouth shut.

When he showed me the video,

I asked him: "Why did you kill that poor kid? He's an Arab."

You know what his answer was?

"He should be dammed to hell, he worked with Jews."

Anything else?

What about the other thing I asked you for?

I told you, it'll cost you an extra 20,000.

It's all here.

In order to--

It took my men three minutes to hack the computer.

It's a good thing you brought it in.

We're true to the ways of Allah!

Come on, I promise!

We're true to the ways of Allah!

It's Eli's home on the kibbutz.

Open up!

They found Yusef inside the safe room. Salem's son. He lived nearby.

-"The Most Merciful..." -You son of a bitch!

I used my contacts at the Secret Service to run a facial ID.

The man in the image is Eyad Dahduh,

a Nukhba terrorist currently living in Marseille.

-Marseille? -Yes, Marseille.

And guess who boarded flight 322 to Marseille this morning.

-Okay, so what do we do? -Good question.

Hey, Gabi, how can I help?

Did someone die?

Meet Lia.

Lia, this is Doron, my old friend from the Service.

I've heard some stories.

-Nice to finally meet you. -Same here.

-What are you watching? -None of your business.

Any news about the supply of connectors to the system?

-I need answers for tomorrow's meeting. -We're working 24/7 on it,

we'll meet the deadline.

-You know why her name is Lia? -Nope.

Because she's a LIA-bility.

Off you go.

Run along.

Who's she?

My fixer. She's top notch, a genius. I pulled her out of the Service.

She's got a great future ahead of her.

Tell me, is your passport valid?

-Why? -I'm sending you to the Maldives...

Because someone has to stop those two lunatics.

-I'm not there, Gabi. -No one else can do it!

Sagi and Nurit are in Australia, about to have a baby,

Steve is a bodyguard for an Oligarch in London--

-Gabi, you're being hysterical. -Doron, you have to go there now,

before your friend does something that'll end his life.

Hey.

I thought we were done with this.

Eli needs me.

Doron, there's always going to be something.

What about your own needs?

Don't you remember the state you were in?

You guys nearly died in Jenin,

and then October...

I remember.

-Prayer time. -Okay.

Man Mousa

That's him.

Look at how that bastard is enjoying his life.

Salem, enough.

We'll give his details to the police and the Shin Bet, and that's it.

That son of a bitch broke into your home and violated it.

First, we talk to him, to ensure it's really him.

Got it?

Salem! Got it?

-Thank you. -Good to see you, pal.

-Send Sura my best regards. -Thanks.

-Peace be upon you. -Upon you be peace.

Buddy, are you still open, or did you turn the burners off?

My brothers, as you can see, I'm closing up shop.

Please, brother, we've starving,

we just landed.

They didn't even serve peanuts on the flight.

Come in.

Thank you.

You're lucky the coals are still hot.

Where are you guys from?

Amman, Jordan.

-Jordan, really? -Know anyone there?

Of course, I have a lot of family there, in al-Wehdat.

-Palestinian? -Yep.

-We came from Aqaba. -Nice to meet you.

Same here. I'm Salah,

and this shy guy is Ahmad.

-Nice to meet you. -I'm Eyad. Nice to meet you.

I'll fix you up a plate.

Nothing fancy, we didn't mean to hold you back.

"He who believes in Allah and in Judgment Day

must be kind to his guests."

Your accent... are you from Gaza or the Negev?

I'm Gazan, brother.

Were you there during the war?

If I were there during the war, we wouldn't be talking right now.

I moved here with my family a few years before.

What the Jews did to us is a disaster.

May Allah punish them.

I lost many friends.

May God avenge them.

Did you run a restaurant in Gaza as well?

I lead a completely different life back in Gaza,

I had a carpentry shop, but when I arrived in Europe,

I realized that here they want everything quick and simple,

so I built a fast food place, like IKEA.

Peace be upon you.

-Abu Mohammed? -Yes.

They're searching for you. Stay alert.

Excuse me, brothers, I'm out of bread. I'll go downstairs to get some.

Very well.

Mohammed, my son...

Run over to Naji's stand and tell him to come here quickly

-and to bring a gun. -What happened?

Hush...

Off you go.

Oh, and tell him to come in from the back door.

Drop the knife.

Drop it!

Move.

Move!

Everything okay upstairs?

I locked the door.

There isn't a soul up there.

The bastard pulled out a knife.

-You bastard! -No, I'm begging you!

Gabi.

Welcome.

Talk to me.

I'm sending you the address of Eyad's restaurant.

Go there.

Doron, are you with me?

What? Yes, I'm listening.

Could you repeat that?

I'm sending you the address, go there right now.

I just hope it's not too late.

Tell the driver to take the A55 freeway.

Got it, thanks.

Wake up.

Wake up!

You're Israelis?

-Jews? -He's a Jew,

but I'm a Muslim, just like my son who you murdered

while he recited the Fatiha, you bastard!

I didn't do it!

Take a good look.

See?

Your footage is coming up.

The fact that you guys filmed yourselves saved us a lot of time.

What were you thinking, Eyad?

How dare you pray, you Satan?! Your soul is about to burn in hell!

Hold on, Salem.

Look at them.

Look!

Did you kill them?

No, not me.

Do you know who murdered them?

No.

My commander did it!

I can help you!

Same with your son. I had no choice.

You know we can't defy an order.

What was your commander's name?

Maher Zaitun. He lives here, in Marseille.

I didn't mean to do it, I thought we were only going there to loot and destroy.

Liar!

-Stop lying, you bastard! -What's his address?

-He works here, at the center. -What center?

The Yummah Center, for refugees and immigrants.

-Some other Gazans work there too. -Hamas?

I have nothing to do with them. As you can see, I run a restaurant.

I'm just a simple soldier, please!

Please, I have a family, I have children, please!

Salem!

Salem, Salem...

Stay with me...

Stay with me...

Salem, stay with me, you're going to be okay.

Go get him...

Avenge Yusef...

-Press here, okay? -Avenge Yusef...

Thank you.

Shit!

What are you doing here, bro?

What the hell happened here?
