00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,200
.: Italian subtitles by zabuza89:.
2
00:00:21,142 --> 00:00:22,792
To "Andalusia rebuilt several times,
3
00:00:22,812 --> 00:00:26,712
of which we carry both the rubble
amass that indefatigable hope."
4
00:00:57,742 --> 00:00:59,292
THE LOST NECKLACE
OF THE DOVE
5
00:01:57,958 --> 00:01:59,416
Good morning, Master.
6
00:02:47,435 --> 00:02:50,387
Here are yesterday's exercises, Master.
7
00:03:00,190 --> 00:03:03,354
Good, good.
8
00:03:03,774 --> 00:03:05,433
The dimensions are correct.
9
00:03:06,567 --> 00:03:08,523
But, Hassan, the value of writing
10
00:03:08,818 --> 00:03:10,359
it goes beyond size.
11
00:03:19,447 --> 00:03:20,644
This is writing, Hassan,
12
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,319
what gives you the rhythm of the absolute
13
00:03:24,324 --> 00:03:26,694
and is the link between
14
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,107
the visible and invisible world.
15
00:03:30,117 --> 00:03:33,531
The "Dhaher" and the "Batn".
16
00:03:36,203 --> 00:03:39,036
The letter is our prayer, Hassan.
17
00:03:40,621 --> 00:03:42,162
This is how calligraphy
18
00:03:42,455 --> 00:03:45,786
becomes a witness to divine beauty.
19
00:03:51,458 --> 00:03:54,077
Hassan... prepare a
some ink for me.
20
00:05:33,537 --> 00:05:35,991
Words for love: Thanaf jawa...
21
00:06:43,146 --> 00:06:44,344
Listen! Listen!
22
00:06:44,647 --> 00:06:47,480
Hear what the prophet said.
23
00:06:48,231 --> 00:06:49,938
He said: three things
24
00:06:50,232 --> 00:06:52,140
I like them on this earth:
25
00:06:52,441 --> 00:06:55,855
perfume, women and prayer.
26
00:07:01,069 --> 00:07:03,108
You mentioned perfume first.
27
00:07:03,778 --> 00:07:06,482
In perfume is a woman's secret.
28
00:07:07,571 --> 00:07:10,487
In women is the secret of love.
29
00:07:11,198 --> 00:07:14,446
Love, the great prayer of the universe.
30
00:07:16,283 --> 00:07:19,780
Hear, hear, hear...
31
00:07:20,285 --> 00:07:22,158
But what is love exactly?
32
00:07:23,370 --> 00:07:24,370
Love?
33
00:07:27,121 --> 00:07:28,448
Buy this...
34
00:07:28,913 --> 00:07:31,367
The gift of lovers.
35
00:07:33,956 --> 00:07:35,864
How does one know
if someone is in love?
36
00:07:36,166 --> 00:07:38,323
Buying my perfume.
37
00:07:38,875 --> 00:07:41,116
Wait, wait... How much?
38
00:07:42,334 --> 00:07:43,334
How much?
39
00:07:51,046 --> 00:07:52,919
Listen! Listen!
40
00:07:53,464 --> 00:07:55,621
Hear what the prophet said...
41
00:08:18,139 --> 00:08:19,763
How's the songbird?
42
00:08:20,348 --> 00:08:21,506
He's already done his show.
43
00:08:21,516 --> 00:08:23,672
He doesn't want to sing anymore.
44
00:08:23,974 --> 00:08:26,215
No one but you has ever heard it sung.
45
00:08:26,976 --> 00:08:29,512
Some time ago it took my breath away.
46
00:08:30,769 --> 00:08:31,769
All right!
47
00:08:32,061 --> 00:08:33,341
Don't overdo it!
48
00:08:33,978 --> 00:08:36,681
Has my teacher's book arrived?
49
00:08:37,188 --> 00:08:39,677
Not yet. Our ships are blocked
50
00:08:39,980 --> 00:08:42,388
on the other coast.
51
00:08:42,773 --> 00:08:44,183
What book?
52
00:08:44,482 --> 00:08:47,316
The Forecasts of a
Traveler by Ibn Djazar.
53
00:08:48,026 --> 00:08:51,190
I think I have it. Come with me.
54
00:08:52,194 --> 00:08:54,316
My storage is poorly organised
55
00:08:54,819 --> 00:08:56,444
and I don't know if I will be able to find it.
56
00:09:01,780 --> 00:09:03,487
Let's look here first.
57
00:09:07,575 --> 00:09:09,067
He has a lot of books!
58
00:09:11,784 --> 00:09:12,784
Wait here!
59
00:09:49,548 --> 00:09:52,083
Are there any mice? I have to get a cat.
60
00:10:20,767 --> 00:10:23,091
Zin! Zin!
61
00:10:24,728 --> 00:10:27,051
The first order should be sufficient.
62
00:10:28,770 --> 00:10:31,389
The prince traveled widely
63
00:10:32,272 --> 00:10:33,730
before asking my teacher
64
00:10:34,022 --> 00:10:36,179
to finish the Quran for him.
65
00:10:36,940 --> 00:10:39,608
He vowed to write it himself,
66
00:10:39,941 --> 00:10:42,265
but the pen fell from his hand.
67
00:10:42,567 --> 00:10:43,728
A bad omen.
68
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,729
In your master's handwriting
69
00:10:47,027 --> 00:10:48,603
the Koran will be a marvel.
70
00:10:49,820 --> 00:10:52,025
Will it be enough for the prince?
71
00:10:53,070 --> 00:10:56,936
Yes. It is the hand of the master
72
00:10:57,573 --> 00:10:58,734
that slides across the pages, but
73
00:10:59,031 --> 00:11:00,712
the spirit of the prince guides his hand.
74
00:11:01,657 --> 00:11:02,735
Go to Haj.
75
00:11:14,121 --> 00:11:16,326
Listen! There he is! I found it!
76
00:11:20,581 --> 00:11:22,157
It's not the same title.
77
00:11:22,832 --> 00:11:24,490
But it's the same author, it's the same.
78
00:11:24,791 --> 00:11:26,118
Not for my teacher.
79
00:11:45,590 --> 00:11:47,167
It's not the same card.
80
00:11:49,466 --> 00:11:51,707
Half tone color...
81
00:11:55,636 --> 00:11:57,711
Have you found any other words for "love"?
82
00:11:59,137 --> 00:12:00,137
No.
83
00:12:06,140 --> 00:12:07,514
Why know them all?
84
00:12:08,016 --> 00:12:09,888
I want to understand what love is.
85
00:12:12,768 --> 00:12:14,474
Many lives would not be enough
86
00:12:14,767 --> 00:12:16,805
to reveal its mysteries.
87
00:12:17,435 --> 00:12:20,849
One word is enough,
it contains all the others.
88
00:12:21,854 --> 00:12:23,311
Just like God.
89
00:12:23,980 --> 00:12:26,551
He is called the Omniscient,
90
00:12:27,272 --> 00:12:29,597
the Magnanimous, the Unfathomable.
91
00:12:30,607 --> 00:12:32,398
I can give you three words for "love".
92
00:12:32,732 --> 00:12:33,732
Which?
93
00:12:33,858 --> 00:12:35,980
Ichk, Wajd, Huyem.
94
00:12:39,027 --> 00:12:40,354
How many do you have now?
95
00:12:40,903 --> 00:12:43,308
Twenty-nine plus three, thirty-two.
96
00:12:44,194 --> 00:12:45,195
Huyem!
97
00:12:45,820 --> 00:12:49,104
The love that leads astray and to death.
98
00:12:49,447 --> 00:12:50,447
What are you hiding?
99
00:12:52,489 --> 00:12:53,189
A talisman?
100
00:12:53,490 --> 00:12:55,896
Yes. Go away! The Maalem is waiting.
101
00:12:56,199 --> 00:12:58,201
- Can I go to school with you?
- Don't loiter.
102
00:12:59,034 --> 00:13:00,362
I'll be here first.
103
00:13:01,743 --> 00:13:03,064
A djinn. He won't live like this for long.
104
00:13:13,748 --> 00:13:15,952
You keep disappearing.
105
00:13:16,290 --> 00:13:18,578
I told you to go get it
106
00:13:18,874 --> 00:13:20,451
a copy from Fatima Zohra!
107
00:13:20,750 --> 00:13:22,657
Hurry up! Go!
108
00:13:30,086 --> 00:13:30,703
Zin! Zin!
109
00:13:31,003 --> 00:13:32,710
Can't you see I'm running?
110
00:13:33,004 --> 00:13:35,126
A message for her. It's the blue sky.
111
00:13:35,505 --> 00:13:37,627
I know. Don't slow me down.
112
00:14:43,530 --> 00:14:44,531
Zin!
113
00:14:51,658 --> 00:14:52,658
What are you doing?
114
00:14:52,741 --> 00:14:53,742
I'm watching.
115
00:14:53,992 --> 00:14:55,949
- What?
- The columns.
116
00:14:56,285 --> 00:14:58,028
Sometimes they change color.
117
00:14:59,118 --> 00:15:01,407
They become a red and white forest,
118
00:15:01,870 --> 00:15:04,324
but you have to take them by surprise.
119
00:15:04,663 --> 00:15:06,619
- It's all in your head.
- It's not my fault
120
00:15:07,622 --> 00:15:09,246
if I see things that others don't see.
121
00:15:09,665 --> 00:15:11,455
Come on, class has started.
122
00:15:35,174 --> 00:15:38,043
...to appreciate the sweet tenderness,
123
00:15:40,676 --> 00:15:42,549
Passionate love, it's time
124
00:15:42,844 --> 00:15:45,878
when your heart gives in to reason that
125
00:15:46,178 --> 00:15:48,847
strength to the declaration. Fiery love.
126
00:15:51,222 --> 00:15:53,462
Do you understand all this?
127
00:15:53,848 --> 00:15:56,088
Everyone understands depending on
128
00:15:56,599 --> 00:15:58,560
size of his ears.
Mine are big!
129
00:15:59,808 --> 00:16:00,887
Insane love.
130
00:16:01,642 --> 00:16:03,218
It's the moment one prefers
131
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,136
fold in on itself.
132
00:16:05,810 --> 00:16:07,802
Passion corresponds to the moment
133
00:16:08,103 --> 00:16:10,260
when one gives to the beloved
134
00:16:10,562 --> 00:16:11,972
a soul that mixes with her.
135
00:16:14,231 --> 00:16:16,850
In lovesickness the whole body
136
00:16:17,147 --> 00:16:19,353
it is elevated, and feelings transcend
137
00:16:19,649 --> 00:16:21,272
the constraints of reason.
138
00:16:23,609 --> 00:16:25,979
Frenzy is the breaking of all ties
139
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,524
after a constant struggle.
140
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:33,350
The madness of love
141
00:16:33,738 --> 00:16:35,694
it means not being more attentive
142
00:16:36,196 --> 00:16:38,022
of what requires self-control.
143
00:16:40,365 --> 00:16:42,155
Languor is the moment
144
00:16:42,531 --> 00:16:46,196
when life seems meaningless
145
00:16:46,492 --> 00:16:49,989
in the absence of someone to love.
146
00:16:51,452 --> 00:16:52,993
Do you have questions?
147
00:16:56,287 --> 00:16:57,661
In the last lesson
148
00:16:57,997 --> 00:17:00,532
he used two words for being in love:
149
00:17:01,288 --> 00:17:02,866
Achik and Khalil.
150
00:17:05,374 --> 00:17:08,326
In Arabic there are sixty words
151
00:17:08,958 --> 00:17:12,077
to express nuances
of being in love.
152
00:18:34,281 --> 00:18:35,609
Here is your letter.
153
00:18:40,534 --> 00:18:41,197
You come!
154
00:18:41,493 --> 00:18:44,112
I'm working, but I'll catch up with you.
155
00:18:48,828 --> 00:18:49,829
Your letter?
156
00:18:50,453 --> 00:18:52,611
Wait a minute, I'm not done.
157
00:18:53,372 --> 00:18:54,782
I don't have time anymore!
158
00:18:57,081 --> 00:19:00,116
I have what you need. Only...
159
00:19:01,541 --> 00:19:02,785
it costs a lot more!
160
00:19:06,169 --> 00:19:08,124
His eyes are so huge
161
00:19:08,711 --> 00:19:10,998
that forty boats could row
162
00:19:11,836 --> 00:19:13,628
in them for forty years
163
00:19:14,254 --> 00:19:15,961
without even reaching the coast.
164
00:19:26,842 --> 00:19:29,000
What will you do with all this money?
165
00:19:30,635 --> 00:19:31,635
It's none of your business!
166
00:19:42,889 --> 00:19:44,715
- Are you Zin?
- Why?
167
00:19:45,308 --> 00:19:47,264
Do you know the calligrapher's house?
168
00:19:47,766 --> 00:19:48,431
Why?
169
00:19:48,725 --> 00:19:50,717
- It's a gift.
- Let me see.
170
00:19:51,518 --> 00:19:53,142
It's for Leila, the calligrapher's daughter.
171
00:19:57,853 --> 00:19:58,967
Choose a color.
172
00:20:00,813 --> 00:20:03,481
Some happier colors? Saffron?
173
00:20:04,106 --> 00:20:06,774
They already got him. Not for you,
174
00:20:07,566 --> 00:20:09,723
but for me. Each couple has its own color,
175
00:20:10,025 --> 00:20:12,597
otherwise how could I recognize them?
176
00:20:13,193 --> 00:20:15,315
Choose a color, or I'll do it for you.
177
00:20:17,278 --> 00:20:18,278
This.
178
00:20:27,865 --> 00:20:28,865
A message?
179
00:20:29,199 --> 00:20:31,024
No, but you owe me money.
180
00:20:31,740 --> 00:20:33,613
- I know.
- Pay me in figs.
181
00:20:35,451 --> 00:20:36,451
Come on!
182
00:20:37,577 --> 00:20:38,987
Give me more, I have a brother,
183
00:20:39,828 --> 00:20:40,858
and one for Zin...
184
00:20:51,582 --> 00:20:53,620
- Is the prince here?
- Yes.
185
00:21:02,086 --> 00:21:04,657
Prince, Prince, I have something for you.
186
00:21:11,172 --> 00:21:13,543
Prince Haroun, look!
187
00:21:19,551 --> 00:21:21,874
Look carefully, they are the coins for the turban.
188
00:21:24,177 --> 00:21:25,291
I'll be right back.
189
00:21:56,396 --> 00:21:57,594
- Are you sick?
- No.
190
00:22:00,065 --> 00:22:01,309
So are you in love?
191
00:22:04,108 --> 00:22:05,109
Whose?
192
00:22:05,900 --> 00:22:06,900
If you tell me
193
00:22:06,942 --> 00:22:08,934
I will deliver your message for free.
194
00:22:10,152 --> 00:22:11,396
- Whose?
- Nobody's.
195
00:22:24,157 --> 00:22:25,158
What do you want?
196
00:22:26,825 --> 00:22:28,817
I want the handwriting to say
197
00:22:29,117 --> 00:22:30,118
"Prince Haroun".
198
00:22:30,534 --> 00:22:31,613
Who is Prince Haroun?
199
00:22:32,452 --> 00:22:33,482
It's my secret.
200
00:22:33,786 --> 00:22:36,109
Do you want to discover other people's secrets,
201
00:22:36,412 --> 00:22:38,035
but keep yours to yourself.
202
00:23:03,672 --> 00:23:04,833
What kind of writing?
203
00:23:05,464 --> 00:23:07,040
Calligraphy for a prince.
204
00:23:13,299 --> 00:23:14,674
I love this melody.
205
00:23:16,385 --> 00:23:17,760
- Who's playing?
- Leila...
206
00:23:19,052 --> 00:23:20,427
the teacher's daughter.
207
00:23:21,345 --> 00:23:23,917
I have a message for you.
208
00:23:31,682 --> 00:23:33,721
What do you all have against me?
209
00:23:34,767 --> 00:23:36,723
The Maalem calls me a bastard.
210
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:38,101
You hit me.
211
00:23:38,309 --> 00:23:40,929
- I'll tell my father.
- You don't have it.
212
00:23:41,227 --> 00:23:42,388
- Yes indeed.
- Where?
213
00:23:43,478 --> 00:23:44,478
Wait.
214
00:23:56,316 --> 00:23:57,316
Mom!
215
00:23:57,775 --> 00:23:58,806
It's not here.
216
00:24:10,321 --> 00:24:11,897
You scared us, little devil.
217
00:24:12,322 --> 00:24:14,479
- Who is my father?
- Your father?
218
00:24:16,407 --> 00:24:18,529
Everyone has a father except me!
219
00:24:18,908 --> 00:24:20,567
- Come here!
- No!
220
00:24:21,617 --> 00:24:22,732
- Listen.
- No.
221
00:24:23,701 --> 00:24:25,692
Come here! I'll tell you a secret.
222
00:24:28,577 --> 00:24:30,616
Your father is not like other fathers.
223
00:24:31,038 --> 00:24:32,661
Your father is a djinn.
224
00:24:33,121 --> 00:24:35,824
You've said it before. Where?
225
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:39,617
He's waiting for you to grow up a little,
226
00:24:40,207 --> 00:24:41,535
and then he will come and get you.
227
00:24:41,957 --> 00:24:43,748
When? I've had enough.
228
00:24:44,875 --> 00:24:47,246
They hit me and call me a bastard.
229
00:24:47,919 --> 00:24:50,490
Who hit you? I'll take care of him!
230
00:24:52,336 --> 00:24:53,337
The Maalem?
231
00:24:54,212 --> 00:24:57,046
I'll go to him. Wait for me outside.
232
00:24:58,505 --> 00:25:00,413
It's a shame to hit an orphan.
233
00:25:01,965 --> 00:25:03,506
Who put it in your belly?
234
00:25:07,384 --> 00:25:08,545
During a hot night
235
00:25:09,593 --> 00:25:11,086
I had gone out onto the terrace.
236
00:25:13,178 --> 00:25:15,383
I woke up under a crushing weight.
237
00:25:17,345 --> 00:25:19,467
I was visited by a djinn.
238
00:25:21,889 --> 00:25:23,298
As! As if I were dreaming!
239
00:25:27,183 --> 00:25:29,009
Don't you believe me?
240
00:25:29,934 --> 00:25:31,640
Zin is the son of a djinn.
241
00:25:55,901 --> 00:25:56,901
Where are you going?
242
00:25:57,069 --> 00:25:58,727
To hear the story of Prince Haroun.
243
00:25:59,153 --> 00:26:00,153
Wait.
244
00:26:10,574 --> 00:26:12,364
Come closer, closer.
245
00:26:12,990 --> 00:26:14,485
Admire this miracle!
246
00:26:15,159 --> 00:26:16,616
He has monkey eyes...
247
00:26:16,909 --> 00:26:18,485
He has a monkey nose...
248
00:26:19,035 --> 00:26:20,778
He has a mouth like a monkey...
249
00:26:21,368 --> 00:26:22,779
He has a monkey head...
250
00:26:23,078 --> 00:26:24,868
It's all like a monkey...
251
00:26:25,079 --> 00:26:26,951
and he is also a prince.
252
00:26:29,581 --> 00:26:31,536
My eyes, blinded by genius
253
00:26:32,415 --> 00:26:34,702
who turned my prince into a monkey,
254
00:26:34,999 --> 00:26:37,156
he is a witness to the truth of my story.
255
00:26:40,084 --> 00:26:41,246
Who believes it?
256
00:26:47,963 --> 00:26:49,206
If you don't believe me,
257
00:26:49,504 --> 00:26:51,875
I will prove it to you with the help of a pen.
258
00:26:57,382 --> 00:26:58,875
Do you want a prince's pen?
259
00:27:09,386 --> 00:27:10,387
Haroun! Haroun!
260
00:27:12,472 --> 00:27:13,472
Marvelous!
261
00:27:24,642 --> 00:27:26,634
Look, "Prince Haroun" wrote.
262
00:27:28,268 --> 00:27:30,390
You can clearly see that he is a prince.
263
00:27:31,978 --> 00:27:34,053
The prince wrote his name.
264
00:27:40,398 --> 00:27:42,805
Bastard! Still wandering around? And the book?
265
00:27:43,107 --> 00:27:44,221
It's not finished yet.
266
00:27:44,524 --> 00:27:46,125
Go and get it, Haj is waiting for him.
267
00:30:16,204 --> 00:30:17,995
This game has already been going on for 3 months.
268
00:30:18,289 --> 00:30:19,821
My pigeon I will join you in the sunset.
269
00:30:19,831 --> 00:30:21,787
I know you are a master calligrapher,
270
00:30:22,124 --> 00:30:24,696
and I found out that you are a chess master.
271
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,280
But how will you answer
272
00:30:26,583 --> 00:30:28,326
on my last move?
273
00:30:28,626 --> 00:30:30,452
Don't keep my pigeon for long.
274
00:30:30,752 --> 00:30:32,411
With love.
275
00:30:32,711 --> 00:30:34,750
Your friend Issa from Rozafa.
276
00:30:53,677 --> 00:30:56,629
His queen has taken my horse.
277
00:30:58,221 --> 00:30:59,221
It's my turn.
278
00:31:13,475 --> 00:31:14,850
What are you doing, son?
279
00:31:15,852 --> 00:31:18,057
He's dreaming, and I'm stealing his dream.
280
00:31:29,857 --> 00:31:31,480
Here you are! The teacher is angry,
281
00:31:31,775 --> 00:31:32,775
he's looking for you!
282
00:31:33,442 --> 00:31:35,398
Hassan has been waiting for you for a long time!
283
00:31:39,694 --> 00:31:41,271
Zin, I came to get you.
284
00:31:43,403 --> 00:31:45,027
I don't want to hurt you,
285
00:31:45,737 --> 00:31:47,896
I swear. I don't want to do it again.
286
00:31:50,281 --> 00:31:51,479
So, are we friends?
287
00:31:53,324 --> 00:31:54,698
I brought calligraphy.
288
00:31:55,450 --> 00:31:57,606
I wrote "Haroun" in every style.
289
00:31:59,035 --> 00:32:00,611
Look, this is for you!
290
00:32:03,244 --> 00:32:05,450
You know, you're my little brother.
291
00:32:08,830 --> 00:32:10,987
I prefer dove-shaped letters.
292
00:32:13,290 --> 00:32:15,660
You should have told me you were in love.
293
00:32:16,124 --> 00:32:17,124
In love?
294
00:32:17,749 --> 00:32:20,120
Look at others, declare yourself to her.
295
00:32:20,710 --> 00:32:22,083
I'm not like the others.
296
00:32:22,501 --> 00:32:24,955
You're jealous, therefore you're in love.
297
00:32:28,212 --> 00:32:30,085
You can't understand such things now.
298
00:32:30,378 --> 00:32:31,493
You are in love.
299
00:32:31,964 --> 00:32:33,044
I told you, I'm not.
300
00:32:34,006 --> 00:32:35,379
It's like a disease.
301
00:32:36,047 --> 00:32:37,506
It takes you by surprise,
302
00:32:37,923 --> 00:32:39,205
without you waiting for it.
303
00:32:53,971 --> 00:32:55,464
Don't you have anything else to do?
304
00:32:55,847 --> 00:32:57,803
He's burning books behind the bathrooms.
305
00:32:59,014 --> 00:33:00,015
You come!
306
00:33:05,851 --> 00:33:07,724
What are you doing? Are you crazy?
307
00:33:09,310 --> 00:33:11,978
- Go away!
- You can't do that!
308
00:33:12,269 --> 00:33:13,871
I do what I'm told to do.
309
00:33:13,937 --> 00:33:16,770
You're throwing books into the fire!
310
00:33:17,188 --> 00:33:19,226
They gave me these books
311
00:33:19,522 --> 00:33:20,933
because they are contaminated.
312
00:33:21,189 --> 00:33:22,351
So I'm burning them.
313
00:33:23,023 --> 00:33:25,015
It's not my responsibility.
314
00:33:25,774 --> 00:33:27,765
It's not his fault.
315
00:33:28,067 --> 00:33:30,106
Leave him! That paper is contaminated!
316
00:33:31,443 --> 00:33:34,477
Don't you understand? They are contaminated!
317
00:33:34,987 --> 00:33:37,310
Poor boy! He will encounter misfortune.
318
00:33:37,987 --> 00:33:39,362
Who gave you these books?
319
00:33:42,573 --> 00:33:43,947
They were in the cemetery.
320
00:33:45,781 --> 00:33:47,690
I heard a voice
321
00:33:48,992 --> 00:33:50,698
who said "Jafar" from far away.
322
00:33:51,659 --> 00:33:52,773
I got up.
323
00:33:55,744 --> 00:33:57,818
- Are you Giafar?
- Yes.
324
00:33:58,953 --> 00:34:00,744
- Giafar the Barmek?
- Yes.
325
00:34:02,288 --> 00:34:03,698
You will find a bag of books
326
00:34:03,955 --> 00:34:05,364
near your oven. Burn them.
327
00:34:06,373 --> 00:34:07,373
Why?
328
00:34:08,415 --> 00:34:10,323
So no one will find my dream.
329
00:34:10,625 --> 00:34:11,625
What dream?
330
00:34:11,750 --> 00:34:13,705
The dream of the Princess of Samarkand...
331
00:34:14,251 --> 00:34:16,739
That madman, chasing his dream,
332
00:34:17,043 --> 00:34:19,330
he left me his poisoned books.
333
00:34:19,628 --> 00:34:21,369
And that poor child ran away
334
00:34:21,712 --> 00:34:22,992
with a page of its history.
335
00:34:23,295 --> 00:34:25,334
But who is the Princess of Samarkand?
336
00:34:46,554 --> 00:34:48,925
Slowly, one after the other.
337
00:34:50,514 --> 00:34:51,514
You take.
338
00:35:03,310 --> 00:35:04,768
I looked for you everywhere.
339
00:35:05,686 --> 00:35:07,345
- Where is the page?
- Hidden.
340
00:35:07,645 --> 00:35:09,222
- Where?
- Under my shirt.
341
00:35:11,272 --> 00:35:12,551
Do you want to undress me?
342
00:35:12,856 --> 00:35:13,856
Give me the page!
343
00:35:14,689 --> 00:35:16,397
Take off your shirt
344
00:35:16,899 --> 00:35:18,142
and give me the page.
345
00:36:22,505 --> 00:36:24,544
It's terrible! It's incredible!
346
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,214
There are the columns!
347
00:36:26,507 --> 00:36:28,083
It's the Cordoba Mosque!
348
00:36:28,383 --> 00:36:29,383
What did you say?
349
00:36:29,717 --> 00:36:32,964
It is the truth! You come! Soon! It's a miracle!
350
00:36:33,260 --> 00:36:35,713
- It's all in your head.
- Come with me.
351
00:36:36,011 --> 00:36:38,086
Did you have visions in the mosque?
352
00:36:54,143 --> 00:36:55,684
- You deserve a slap!
- You promised!
353
00:36:55,976 --> 00:36:58,051
You're a liar. Give me the page.
354
00:36:58,352 --> 00:36:59,514
I'm not a liar.
355
00:36:59,812 --> 00:37:01,435
I really saw what I saw.
356
00:37:02,895 --> 00:37:04,057
I swear on my father's life
357
00:37:04,313 --> 00:37:05,722
that the columns have changed...
358
00:37:08,689 --> 00:37:10,562
I saw the Cordoba Mosque...
359
00:37:12,649 --> 00:37:14,272
"Love - may God protect you -
360
00:37:14,608 --> 00:37:17,180
the beginning is easy, the end is difficult.
361
00:37:17,526 --> 00:37:19,565
I had this dream:
In an empty tub
362
00:37:19,859 --> 00:37:21,437
two elderly women
363
00:37:21,735 --> 00:37:23,774
they kept throwing water
364
00:37:24,070 --> 00:37:26,939
as if to quench the thirst of the tub.
365
00:37:27,655 --> 00:37:29,056
Sitting on the edge of the empty tub,
366
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:30,774
the Princess of Samarkand
367
00:37:31,072 --> 00:37:33,110
he stared with his big eyes
368
00:37:33,407 --> 00:37:34,485
a red pomegranate.
369
00:37:45,078 --> 00:37:46,571
Love - may God protect you -
370
00:37:46,870 --> 00:37:49,442
the beginning is easy, the end is difficult.
371
00:37:49,955 --> 00:37:52,160
One night I dreamed...
372
00:37:52,705 --> 00:37:53,706
than in an empty tub
373
00:37:53,831 --> 00:37:55,454
two elderly women
374
00:37:55,748 --> 00:37:56,946
they kept throwing water
375
00:37:57,249 --> 00:38:00,581
as if to quench the thirst of the tub.
376
00:38:01,625 --> 00:38:03,026
Sitting on the edge of the empty tub,
377
00:38:03,084 --> 00:38:04,910
the Princess of Samarkand stared
378
00:38:05,251 --> 00:38:08,700
with its big eyes a red pomegranate."
379
00:38:40,014 --> 00:38:42,800
- What are you doing?
- What I have to do.
380
00:38:43,183 --> 00:38:44,183
What's the problem?
381
00:38:44,225 --> 00:38:46,631
Long ago, on the banks of the torrent,
I felt warm.
382
00:38:47,851 --> 00:38:50,091
I saw a red pomegranate floating.
383
00:38:50,602 --> 00:38:51,881
I reached out to take it...
384
00:38:52,311 --> 00:38:53,969
and suddenly I lost my balance.
385
00:38:58,730 --> 00:39:00,058
I risked drowning.
386
00:39:01,064 --> 00:39:02,343
Like a beautiful poem.
387
00:39:05,273 --> 00:39:06,352
Years of love
388
00:39:06,815 --> 00:39:09,140
and poetry for the glory of God.
389
00:39:09,442 --> 00:39:12,227
So much love lost
390
00:39:12,860 --> 00:39:13,981
for an instant of desire.
391
00:39:15,569 --> 00:39:16,569
So much love?
392
00:39:17,737 --> 00:39:18,899
What is love, in the end?
393
00:39:20,112 --> 00:39:21,113
Take it,
394
00:39:23,030 --> 00:39:24,524
I don't need it.
395
00:39:30,075 --> 00:39:31,075
God,
396
00:39:32,617 --> 00:39:34,858
you who feel the slightest tremor
397
00:39:35,118 --> 00:39:37,193
of the smallest leaf in the universe,
398
00:39:38,370 --> 00:39:40,445
you don't need my writing
399
00:39:40,745 --> 00:39:42,322
to read my heart.
400
00:40:23,219 --> 00:40:24,333
It is the master's book.
401
00:40:34,306 --> 00:40:35,586
Why do they walk in circles?
402
00:40:36,599 --> 00:40:37,599
What are they looking for?
403
00:40:38,266 --> 00:40:39,464
I'm like time,
404
00:40:40,350 --> 00:40:41,351
they walk in circles...
405
00:40:42,101 --> 00:40:43,807
they walk in circles forever.
406
00:40:46,394 --> 00:40:47,638
If I stop one,
407
00:40:47,936 --> 00:40:50,141
- do I also stop time?
- Leave him alone.
408
00:40:53,355 --> 00:40:54,517
What are you doing?
409
00:40:55,564 --> 00:40:57,004
I'm writing the words for "love".
410
00:40:57,189 --> 00:40:58,190
So many?
411
00:40:58,315 --> 00:41:00,188
Many more of these! There are sixty of them!
412
00:41:01,150 --> 00:41:02,524
I only know thirty-five of them.
413
00:41:07,652 --> 00:41:08,814
Let me read.
414
00:41:09,110 --> 00:41:10,225
I'm not done.
415
00:41:11,778 --> 00:41:13,438
Two more.
416
00:41:15,780 --> 00:41:16,780
It smells good.
417
00:41:17,864 --> 00:41:20,436
The master's ink tastes like jasmine.
418
00:41:29,243 --> 00:41:30,358
Be careful, the ink...
419
00:41:32,328 --> 00:41:33,328
Do you like it?
420
00:41:35,495 --> 00:41:36,496
I'll go show him.
421
00:41:37,579 --> 00:41:38,580
Give it back to me!
422
00:42:26,055 --> 00:42:28,545
I'm about to go on a long trip, Hassan.
423
00:42:30,349 --> 00:42:32,221
The prince of the Qur'ans is complete.
424
00:42:35,350 --> 00:42:36,678
Everything has an end.
425
00:42:37,226 --> 00:42:38,257
So far away, Master?
426
00:42:40,394 --> 00:42:43,014
I have to take this Quran to Mecca.
427
00:42:44,271 --> 00:42:45,764
I could come with you.
428
00:42:49,605 --> 00:42:51,727
The journey will be long and difficult.
429
00:42:53,607 --> 00:42:55,247
I will have to cross the sea twice.
430
00:42:55,525 --> 00:42:56,686
I know the sea.
431
00:42:59,859 --> 00:43:01,104
Everything in its time.
432
00:43:12,448 --> 00:43:14,356
I played alone for a long time...
433
00:43:14,699 --> 00:43:16,699
In the end I want to see
my friend Issa again
434
00:43:17,408 --> 00:43:18,605
and finish the game.
435
00:43:22,035 --> 00:43:23,361
And me, Master?
436
00:43:26,744 --> 00:43:27,745
I'm thinking...
437
00:43:29,746 --> 00:43:30,746
I'm thinking...
438
00:43:33,372 --> 00:43:34,568
Leave me alone now.
439
00:43:48,711 --> 00:43:50,252
"Love - may God protect you -
440
00:43:50,544 --> 00:43:53,117
the beginning is easy, the end is difficult.
441
00:43:53,588 --> 00:43:55,828
One night I dreamed..."
442
00:44:12,135 --> 00:44:13,298
Zin, come here!
443
00:44:22,639 --> 00:44:23,967
Come here, come here.
444
00:44:25,599 --> 00:44:26,600
What are you embroidering?
445
00:44:27,475 --> 00:44:28,476
A shroud.
446
00:44:33,311 --> 00:44:34,638
Is this a shroud?
447
00:44:36,395 --> 00:44:37,936
The prince's shroud.
448
00:44:39,562 --> 00:44:41,021
Can you embroider something for me?
449
00:44:43,064 --> 00:44:44,391
I'm very busy.
450
00:44:44,982 --> 00:44:46,558
I have little time to complete it.
451
00:44:46,858 --> 00:44:48,398
And when will you finish?
452
00:44:51,192 --> 00:44:52,437
When the prince dies.
453
00:44:52,817 --> 00:44:53,818
When will it happen?
454
00:44:59,778 --> 00:45:01,022
It's a secret.
455
00:45:02,822 --> 00:45:05,062
The day I sew
456
00:45:05,697 --> 00:45:07,605
the last letter of the last word.
457
00:45:29,289 --> 00:45:30,289
What do you want?
458
00:45:30,456 --> 00:45:31,914
I want to buy a book.
459
00:45:33,082 --> 00:45:34,082
What book?
460
00:45:34,333 --> 00:45:36,455
- I don't know the title.
- What?!
461
00:45:38,167 --> 00:45:39,168
And the author?
462
00:45:39,335 --> 00:45:40,417
I don't know that either.
463
00:45:40,585 --> 00:45:42,244
How do you hope I can find it?
464
00:45:44,170 --> 00:45:45,877
- What is he talking about?
- Of love.
465
00:45:46,670 --> 00:45:49,160
- I don't have time to waste.
- Seriously.
466
00:45:49,506 --> 00:45:51,875
Go somewhere else.
I don't have that kind of text.
467
00:46:08,887 --> 00:46:10,262
What does he want?
468
00:46:11,972 --> 00:46:13,927
He wants me to deliver
469
00:46:14,181 --> 00:46:15,211
his message of love.
470
00:46:17,057 --> 00:46:18,298
You are the messenger of love
471
00:46:19,307 --> 00:46:20,848
and I am the messenger of death.
472
00:46:23,184 --> 00:46:24,184
You come!
473
00:46:26,810 --> 00:46:28,185
I looked for you everywhere.
474
00:46:29,853 --> 00:46:30,854
I was here.
475
00:46:31,270 --> 00:46:32,680
Give me the pomegranate.
476
00:46:34,355 --> 00:46:35,355
Where?
477
00:46:36,813 --> 00:46:37,814
Give it to me.
478
00:46:38,565 --> 00:46:39,761
Leila has it.
479
00:46:42,733 --> 00:46:44,191
He read the words for "love"
480
00:46:44,483 --> 00:46:45,484
and laughed a lot.
481
00:46:46,067 --> 00:46:47,068
And then?
482
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,316
I told her there are sixty of them.
483
00:46:50,653 --> 00:46:51,653
And then?
484
00:46:52,654 --> 00:46:55,189
She's waiting for me to bring her the others.
485
00:46:56,405 --> 00:46:57,525
The Maalem is waiting for me.
486
00:48:13,099 --> 00:48:15,767
Prince Haroun! Patience! Patience!
487
00:48:17,768 --> 00:48:19,807
My father will be coming soon
488
00:48:21,769 --> 00:48:23,844
and you will be a prince again.
489
00:48:41,151 --> 00:48:42,692
You even worked at night!
490
00:48:43,735 --> 00:48:46,272
I have to, death doesn't wait.
491
00:48:46,861 --> 00:48:48,272
Will you finish soon?
492
00:48:48,904 --> 00:48:50,860
I'm afraid so... I'm embroidering the heart.
493
00:48:51,237 --> 00:48:52,238
Let me see.
494
00:48:52,864 --> 00:48:54,487
Will you then make a turban for me?
495
00:48:54,782 --> 00:48:55,782
A turban?
496
00:48:59,033 --> 00:49:01,604
It's not for me! It's a turban for a prince!
497
00:49:01,951 --> 00:49:02,951
What prince?
498
00:49:03,827 --> 00:49:04,905
It's my secret.
499
00:49:05,493 --> 00:49:08,031
I need to know who will wear it.
500
00:49:09,244 --> 00:49:11,236
- Do you believe in djinn?
- Djinn?
501
00:49:12,288 --> 00:49:12,903
Why?
502
00:49:13,288 --> 00:49:14,288
Give me an answer first!
503
00:49:14,913 --> 00:49:17,913
Many things are invisible to our eyes.
504
00:49:18,582 --> 00:49:20,075
Yet they exist.
505
00:49:21,207 --> 00:49:22,582
Tell me your story.
506
00:49:23,875 --> 00:49:25,618
I'm waiting for my father to return
507
00:49:25,917 --> 00:49:27,494
and free the prince.
508
00:49:28,627 --> 00:49:29,627
What prince?
509
00:49:29,877 --> 00:49:32,331
He who was turned into a monkey
by an evil genius.
510
00:49:33,338 --> 00:49:34,914
I like your story.
511
00:49:36,338 --> 00:49:39,171
Aren't all princes monkeys?
512
00:49:40,631 --> 00:49:42,291
Only mine is!
513
00:49:42,632 --> 00:49:44,339
Not only that, the disaster is
514
00:49:44,633 --> 00:49:46,873
that our princes are truly monkeys
515
00:49:47,550 --> 00:49:48,960
despite their appearance.
516
00:49:49,884 --> 00:49:51,959
So will you make him a turban?
517
00:49:52,677 --> 00:49:53,792
I can pay!
518
00:49:54,303 --> 00:49:55,381
I'll do it for nothing,
519
00:49:56,471 --> 00:49:57,792
just to keep hope alive.
520
00:49:59,222 --> 00:50:01,889
If you can make your monkey a prince,
521
00:50:03,223 --> 00:50:05,380
there will be hope for all of us.
522
00:50:06,058 --> 00:50:09,057
Bring me your head measurement.
523
00:50:15,102 --> 00:50:16,561
Prince Haroun, stand still!
524
00:50:17,270 --> 00:50:18,270
Stay still!
525
00:50:20,395 --> 00:50:22,601
It's for a turban embroidered with your name.
526
00:50:24,439 --> 00:50:25,684
Soon my father will come
527
00:50:26,189 --> 00:50:27,767
and you will return a prince.
528
00:51:06,955 --> 00:51:07,955
Here's your monkey,
529
00:51:08,913 --> 00:51:10,739
if you refuse, I will kill her.
530
00:51:11,331 --> 00:51:12,331
Don't kill her.
531
00:51:13,624 --> 00:51:14,625
Come with us.
532
00:51:15,333 --> 00:51:17,952
The prince will die, we will burn everything.
533
00:51:18,666 --> 00:51:19,667
I do not want.
534
00:51:20,377 --> 00:51:21,377
Too late.
535
00:51:21,793 --> 00:51:24,329
You're committed.
The beggars are waiting.
536
00:51:24,794 --> 00:51:25,957
I've had enough of massacres.
537
00:51:26,253 --> 00:51:27,996
The world will never change.
538
00:51:28,420 --> 00:51:30,459
Whoever is not with us is against us.
539
00:52:19,106 --> 00:52:21,512
I intended to
give you your diploma later,
540
00:52:25,608 --> 00:52:27,231
but given the current circumstances...
541
00:52:27,942 --> 00:52:29,186
and my long journey,
542
00:52:31,861 --> 00:52:33,270
I want to deal with it now.
543
00:52:34,695 --> 00:52:37,149
Why, Master? We have enough time.
544
00:52:37,612 --> 00:52:38,810
Ah, the time!
545
00:53:00,704 --> 00:53:01,705
Here...
546
00:53:07,582 --> 00:53:09,953
This binds us
547
00:53:10,667 --> 00:53:13,121
to the fourth caliph Ali, the first calligrapher.
548
00:53:14,626 --> 00:53:16,665
When my teacher gave me my diploma,
549
00:53:18,127 --> 00:53:19,455
he offered me this waw;
550
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,327
the "waw", Hassan, is the only letter
551
00:53:23,629 --> 00:53:25,786
of the alphabet that has its own meaning.
552
00:53:27,048 --> 00:53:29,537
Unique and multiple, like God.
553
00:53:30,799 --> 00:53:32,340
The traveller's letter.
554
00:53:41,261 --> 00:53:42,505
I am tired.
555
00:54:10,355 --> 00:54:12,476
Rent me your deposit for the night.
556
00:54:14,315 --> 00:54:16,057
I will pay, tell me a price.
557
00:54:16,399 --> 00:54:18,141
I already told you, I don't have it.
558
00:54:18,442 --> 00:54:20,564
It was among the books that were burned.
559
00:54:21,651 --> 00:54:23,227
I have nothing to rent.
560
00:54:26,195 --> 00:54:28,233
One night, just one. Even if I didn't find it
561
00:54:28,528 --> 00:54:30,484
nothing, in the morning I will be gone.
562
00:54:30,779 --> 00:54:33,233
Slow me down, I'll lose the front row.
563
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,109
As if a prayer
in the front row you are worth more.
564
00:54:48,786 --> 00:54:49,865
Excuse me, Master.
565
00:54:51,329 --> 00:54:52,969
I'm looking for the origin of this text...
566
00:55:15,254 --> 00:55:17,494
- Have you seen Zin?
- Not recently.
567
00:55:37,970 --> 00:55:39,595
"Love -
568
00:55:39,887 --> 00:55:41,002
may God protect you -
569
00:55:41,305 --> 00:55:43,146
the principle is easy,
the end is difficult..."
570
00:56:50,123 --> 00:56:51,699
I've been looking for you everywhere!
571
00:56:53,331 --> 00:56:54,789
- Are you sick?
- Leave me alone.
572
00:56:57,666 --> 00:56:59,740
I'm hanging bows for my dad.
573
00:57:06,628 --> 00:57:07,629
What's the problem?
574
00:57:08,670 --> 00:57:10,151
I thought I saw an apparition.
575
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:11,921
You too?
576
00:57:13,297 --> 00:57:14,297
Then we are equal.
577
00:57:17,507 --> 00:57:18,882
I'm sure he was over there.
578
00:57:20,633 --> 00:57:21,634
How do you know?
579
00:57:25,301 --> 00:57:27,376
I come here often and wait for my father.
580
00:57:29,345 --> 00:57:31,300
It will appear over there.
581
00:57:39,390 --> 00:57:42,424
I will see it coming from far away,
582
00:57:43,433 --> 00:57:44,433
very far away.
583
00:57:50,060 --> 00:57:52,301
Tell me, will it be like this?
584
00:57:53,561 --> 00:57:55,434
Yes, it will be like that.
585
00:57:57,355 --> 00:57:58,683
I forgot about it!
586
00:57:58,980 --> 00:58:01,221
You come! They're selling books at the market!
587
00:58:02,357 --> 00:58:05,771
Listen to what the Prophet said.
588
00:58:07,566 --> 00:58:09,688
"On this earth
589
00:58:10,359 --> 00:58:11,983
three things I like:
590
00:58:12,653 --> 00:58:14,478
the perfume, the women and..."
591
00:58:15,278 --> 00:58:16,279
A book!
592
00:58:17,362 --> 00:58:18,363
A book?
593
00:58:20,364 --> 00:58:21,364
A book?
594
00:58:35,286 --> 00:58:37,953
Old, because yours
is your back bent that much?
595
00:58:40,746 --> 00:58:42,571
I bend over my youth
596
00:58:43,079 --> 00:58:44,454
to try it and find it again.
597
00:58:44,997 --> 00:58:47,119
I'm selling this book about love.
598
00:58:48,623 --> 00:58:50,282
It's for him, not for me.
599
00:58:51,250 --> 00:58:52,250
Let me see.
600
00:58:54,251 --> 00:58:55,708
No, that's not the right one.
601
00:59:03,087 --> 00:59:04,087
The prince is dead.
602
00:59:07,713 --> 00:59:09,172
- When?
- A day or two ago.
603
00:59:09,756 --> 00:59:12,127
Voices from the palace, which remains silent.
604
00:59:12,465 --> 00:59:14,623
- What are they waiting for?
- They don't accept it.
605
00:59:14,925 --> 00:59:16,916
We must fear the worst.
606
00:59:27,596 --> 00:59:29,137
It's you! What do you want?
607
00:59:29,430 --> 00:59:31,718
Twelve dinars to rent the warehouse.
608
00:59:32,014 --> 00:59:34,053
I didn't ask for anything, we're closed.
609
00:59:34,348 --> 00:59:35,592
If they were double...
610
00:59:35,891 --> 00:59:38,890
Double? Why not triple?
611
00:59:40,101 --> 00:59:41,781
You can't take anything with you to heaven.
612
00:59:42,018 --> 00:59:44,056
Look around you, death is in the air...
613
00:59:44,352 --> 00:59:45,352
Are you threatening me?
614
00:59:47,729 --> 00:59:48,759
Didn't he accept?
615
00:59:49,728 --> 00:59:52,301
I'd like to break down his door.
616
00:59:52,897 --> 00:59:55,303
Not necessarily, stay here and wait for me.
617
01:00:16,573 --> 01:00:18,896
Everyone in a room, and we will find it.
618
01:00:26,451 --> 01:00:27,944
I found it!
619
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,317
You got me hooked
one shot! You never change.
620
01:00:33,370 --> 01:00:36,120
It's just that I found Prince Haroun!
621
01:00:36,455 --> 01:00:38,991
So many books. The night is coming,
622
01:00:39,289 --> 01:00:40,486
and you are no help to me.
623
01:00:41,123 --> 01:00:42,866
- I'm going to get help.
- Who?
624
01:00:44,166 --> 01:00:45,540
- Who?
- The lovers.
625
01:00:45,875 --> 01:00:47,368
No, everyone will know.
626
01:00:48,959 --> 01:00:50,536
They won't dare betray us,
627
01:00:50,835 --> 01:00:52,459
I know all their secrets.
628
01:01:22,263 --> 01:01:25,049
One night won't be enough!
629
01:01:25,431 --> 01:01:26,888
Everyone get a room.
630
01:01:27,140 --> 01:01:29,013
We will find it for sure.
631
01:02:24,702 --> 01:02:25,781
Zin! Where are you?
632
01:02:37,124 --> 01:02:38,452
He must have left. You come!
633
01:02:45,752 --> 01:02:47,210
And all because of a book!
634
01:03:02,175 --> 01:03:03,798
No one will look for you here.
635
01:03:05,551 --> 01:03:07,009
Don't move. If you hear
636
01:03:07,677 --> 01:03:09,384
someone come, hide.
637
01:03:10,052 --> 01:03:11,215
I'll be back soon.
638
01:03:13,429 --> 01:03:14,506
I'm going to look for Zin.
639
01:03:31,394 --> 01:03:33,184
- Isn't Jafar here?
- No.
640
01:03:34,728 --> 01:03:35,759
I'm looking for Zin.
641
01:03:36,687 --> 01:03:37,850
He disappeared.
642
01:03:42,106 --> 01:03:44,430
And I want to give it to him
643
01:03:44,649 --> 01:03:45,849
this ring to protect it.
644
01:03:47,441 --> 01:03:48,441
May God protect us.
645
01:03:50,067 --> 01:03:51,893
Who will find my son?
646
01:07:09,474 --> 01:07:10,474
Get up.
647
01:07:12,224 --> 01:07:13,849
You are not safe here.
648
01:07:16,017 --> 01:07:18,388
No one is safe in this city.
649
01:07:19,269 --> 01:07:20,710
I'm going to see my teacher.
650
01:07:21,061 --> 01:07:22,471
He left for Mecca.
651
01:07:22,770 --> 01:07:23,967
- When?
- Two days ago.
652
01:07:25,105 --> 01:07:26,811
You should have told me!
653
01:07:28,564 --> 01:07:30,888
As? The beggars
they started a riot
654
01:07:31,690 --> 01:07:33,492
when they learned of the prince's death.
655
01:07:34,149 --> 01:07:36,520
I was called to bury the dead.
656
01:07:37,109 --> 01:07:38,110
And Zin?
657
01:07:38,609 --> 01:07:40,934
He disappeared. But he'll be back.
658
01:07:41,401 --> 01:07:43,642
- I have to go to my teacher.
- Crazy!
659
01:07:44,070 --> 01:07:45,444
The beggars are gathered
660
01:07:45,737 --> 01:07:47,230
out of the city to devastate it.
661
01:08:10,121 --> 01:08:11,828
Which direction is Mecca?
662
01:08:12,705 --> 01:08:14,448
Go away. No one can see the dead.
663
01:08:15,373 --> 01:08:17,945
Come back! If you meet beggars,
664
01:08:18,249 --> 01:08:20,205
you will meet death.
665
01:08:21,459 --> 01:08:24,458
Wait! I have to go to my teacher.
666
01:08:24,751 --> 01:08:25,752
Dervish!
667
01:08:37,797 --> 01:08:38,828
Dervish! Wait for me!
668
01:08:39,507 --> 01:08:40,834
I don't know the way.
669
01:09:29,900 --> 01:09:31,358
I'll take them all.
670
01:09:31,776 --> 01:09:33,649
The beggars will arrive soon.
671
01:09:34,652 --> 01:09:36,109
They will stay here with me
672
01:09:36,403 --> 01:09:38,228
to dry the peppers.
673
01:09:41,155 --> 01:09:42,529
They will massacre you.
674
01:09:42,821 --> 01:09:45,027
I only fear God.
675
01:09:45,947 --> 01:09:48,318
Then fear those who do not fear God.
676
01:09:49,115 --> 01:09:51,605
They say that the leader of the beggars loves God.
677
01:09:52,241 --> 01:09:54,777
Beware of such love.
678
01:10:49,013 --> 01:10:50,013
Who are you?
679
01:10:53,264 --> 01:10:54,264
And you?
680
01:10:57,140 --> 01:10:59,925
I am Hassan, a calligraphy student.
681
01:11:01,767 --> 01:11:03,592
I lost my teacher.
682
01:11:04,518 --> 01:11:06,012
This paper burned
683
01:11:07,186 --> 01:11:09,058
it is the source of my misfortunes.
684
01:11:24,525 --> 01:11:26,102
"Love - may God protect you -
685
01:11:27,068 --> 01:11:29,190
the beginning is easy, the end is difficult.
686
01:11:30,819 --> 01:11:32,941
One night I had this dream:
687
01:11:33,696 --> 01:11:35,437
In an empty tub
688
01:11:35,696 --> 01:11:37,438
two elderly women
689
01:11:41,031 --> 01:11:42,822
they kept throwing water
690
01:11:43,115 --> 01:11:44,774
as if to quench the thirst of the tub.
691
01:11:45,116 --> 01:11:46,116
Who are you?
692
01:11:47,450 --> 01:11:48,612
Sitting on the edge of the tub,
693
01:11:48,909 --> 01:11:50,817
the Princess of Samarkand
694
01:11:52,828 --> 01:11:54,701
he stared with his big eyes
695
01:11:54,994 --> 01:11:56,536
a red pomegranate.
696
01:11:57,538 --> 01:11:58,865
His sad song
697
01:11:59,163 --> 01:12:00,704
brought me out of my dream.
698
01:12:01,039 --> 01:12:02,039
I woke up."
699
01:12:10,835 --> 01:12:11,947
You're crazy,
700
01:12:12,751 --> 01:12:14,459
you are leading them to their death.
701
01:12:14,919 --> 01:12:16,661
I'm going to meet the beggars
702
01:12:17,045 --> 01:12:18,502
and their leader.
703
01:12:19,129 --> 01:12:22,128
We will bring him our plates
with the Koran.
704
01:12:22,714 --> 01:12:25,713
Their leader, that false prophet,
705
01:12:26,005 --> 01:12:28,294
it destroys everything in its path.
706
01:12:33,301 --> 01:12:34,301
Where are you going?
707
01:12:35,093 --> 01:12:36,573
To meet my Master in Rozafa.
708
01:12:36,635 --> 01:12:39,551
He must stop at Issa's house,
709
01:12:39,970 --> 01:12:41,878
the Christian herbalist,
710
01:12:42,179 --> 01:12:43,885
to finish the chess game.
711
01:12:53,975 --> 01:12:55,717
How did you find that page?
712
01:12:56,809 --> 01:12:58,610
I'm looking for the words that mean love.
713
01:12:58,810 --> 01:12:59,810
There are sixty of them.
714
01:13:00,686 --> 01:13:02,179
- You know them all.
- No.
715
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:03,853
I only found forty-seven.
716
01:13:04,854 --> 01:13:07,059
- And have you learned them in your heart?
- Yes.
717
01:13:08,021 --> 01:13:09,764
- Huyem.
- What does it mean?
718
01:13:10,606 --> 01:13:13,225
Love that leads astray, and to death.
719
01:13:13,940 --> 01:13:14,640
Go ahead.
720
01:13:14,940 --> 01:13:17,182
Achik... Aziz...
721
01:13:17,859 --> 01:13:19,056
Do you know my name?
722
01:13:19,734 --> 01:13:20,735
Is your name Aziz?
723
01:13:22,318 --> 01:13:23,480
The person one loves...
724
01:13:25,070 --> 01:13:27,025
You really have to find your master again.
725
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:28,399
And where are you going?
726
01:13:29,321 --> 01:13:31,478
- You know too much.
- Where do you come from?
727
01:13:31,864 --> 01:13:34,530
My name is Aziz, the rest later.
728
01:13:34,948 --> 01:13:36,987
- Aziz!
- Don't ask anything else.
729
01:14:09,460 --> 01:14:10,461
Aziz! Aziz!
730
01:14:12,253 --> 01:14:14,043
Go away, I'll meet you again later.
731
01:15:09,440 --> 01:15:10,441
Are you injured?
732
01:15:11,525 --> 01:15:12,604
Show me your hands.
733
01:15:14,735 --> 01:15:16,810
You were lucky to escape him.
734
01:15:17,985 --> 01:15:19,563
Come with me to my garden.
735
01:15:20,654 --> 01:15:21,654
You will be safe.
736
01:15:52,123 --> 01:15:53,202
This is my garden.
737
01:16:02,585 --> 01:16:03,586
Who's singing?
738
01:16:04,253 --> 01:16:06,659
The Princess of Samarkand
sings his lament.
739
01:16:11,755 --> 01:16:12,289
Why?
740
01:16:12,589 --> 01:16:13,963
She is waiting for the one she loves
741
01:16:14,298 --> 01:16:15,875
in his dreams. Disguised as a knight
742
01:16:17,299 --> 01:16:19,754
she looks for him.
743
01:16:21,092 --> 01:16:22,503
Time passes and its laments
744
01:16:22,884 --> 01:16:25,717
they make my garden drier and drier.
745
01:17:13,028 --> 01:17:15,067
One night I had a dream:
746
01:17:15,821 --> 01:17:17,729
in an empty tub
747
01:17:18,030 --> 01:17:19,938
two elderly women
748
01:17:20,238 --> 01:17:22,147
they kept throwing water
749
01:17:22,448 --> 01:17:24,107
as if to quench the thirst of the tub.
750
01:17:26,241 --> 01:17:27,642
Sitting on the edge of the empty tub,
751
01:17:27,783 --> 01:17:29,277
the Princess of Samarkand stared
752
01:17:29,867 --> 01:17:33,649
with its big eyes a red pomegranate.
753
01:17:33,994 --> 01:17:34,994
his sad song
754
01:17:35,203 --> 01:17:36,744
brought me out of my dream.
755
01:17:39,996 --> 01:17:42,782
Every dream has its answer.
756
01:18:15,301 --> 01:18:17,791
Is this the Bassatin neighborhood?
757
01:18:18,259 --> 01:18:20,003
I'm looking for Issa,
758
01:18:20,302 --> 01:18:21,630
the Christian herbalist Issa.
759
01:18:22,386 --> 01:18:24,343
Over there.
760
01:18:30,931 --> 01:18:31,932
Leave me alone.
761
01:18:38,559 --> 01:18:41,131
An adorable pomegranate
for a lovely girl.
762
01:18:41,435 --> 01:18:44,220
The fruit of paradise is for you.
763
01:18:45,770 --> 01:18:48,094
I'm looking for the house of Issa, the herbalist.
764
01:18:48,480 --> 01:18:50,517
His little daughter just
765
01:18:50,814 --> 01:18:52,687
took a pomegranate from me.
766
01:18:52,982 --> 01:18:55,435
I think his father is away on a trip.
767
01:19:13,572 --> 01:19:15,859
I don't know how to eat pomegranates.
768
01:19:16,948 --> 01:19:18,524
It's my favorite fruit.
769
01:19:19,782 --> 01:19:21,904
Every seed is a seed of heaven.
770
01:19:24,534 --> 01:19:25,862
What if I peel it for you?
771
01:19:50,668 --> 01:19:51,669
Aziz...
772
01:19:52,837 --> 01:19:53,837
Who are you?
773
01:19:57,046 --> 01:19:58,046
After, after,
774
01:19:59,172 --> 01:20:00,286
let's go now.
775
01:20:21,972 --> 01:20:23,513
Where are you going?
776
01:20:23,973 --> 01:20:25,052
Let's go home.
777
01:20:25,641 --> 01:20:27,347
- And you?
- Help me.
778
01:20:34,144 --> 01:20:36,430
I'm wandering this way
779
01:20:37,020 --> 01:20:38,843
for nights to bury
my young master
780
01:20:38,853 --> 01:20:40,761
in the garden of his dreams, where
781
01:20:41,062 --> 01:20:43,100
the Princess of Samarkand awaits him.
782
01:20:43,397 --> 01:20:44,475
Who is your master?
783
01:20:46,981 --> 01:20:48,439
Youth smiled upon him,
784
01:20:49,399 --> 01:20:50,512
but he abandoned everything
785
01:20:52,858 --> 01:20:53,859
for a dream.
786
01:20:57,568 --> 01:20:58,569
For a dream.
787
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:03,647
He left
788
01:21:04,488 --> 01:21:06,395
to find the Princess of Samarkand,
789
01:21:08,906 --> 01:21:10,149
but he met his death.
790
01:21:11,991 --> 01:21:12,991
Leave him!
791
01:21:13,366 --> 01:21:14,366
Hey! You!
792
01:21:19,618 --> 01:21:20,618
Take it.
793
01:21:21,161 --> 01:21:22,653
It's the book where
794
01:21:22,952 --> 01:21:24,594
he wrote down his dreams and secrets.
795
01:21:24,703 --> 01:21:27,027
I don't want to bury it with him.
796
01:21:32,873 --> 01:21:35,197
Don't open it. It brings bad luck.
797
01:22:09,469 --> 01:22:11,295
Hassan, we're almost there.
798
01:22:22,724 --> 01:22:23,724
Leave him.
799
01:22:26,226 --> 01:22:27,826
The book I searched for so avidly:
800
01:22:27,935 --> 01:22:29,262
"The Necklace of the Dove"
801
01:22:29,644 --> 01:22:32,312
by Ibn Hazn Al Andalousi. Aziz...
802
01:22:33,228 --> 01:22:36,097
Are you the Princess of Samarkand?
803
01:22:40,355 --> 01:22:42,147
"Love - may God protect you -
804
01:22:43,315 --> 01:22:44,429
the principle is easy,
805
01:22:45,650 --> 01:22:46,848
the end is difficult."
806
01:24:37,733 --> 01:24:39,770
What are you waiting for, old man,
807
01:24:40,525 --> 01:24:42,006
- on the side of the road?
- Someone.
808
01:24:45,318 --> 01:24:46,318
But why at night?
809
01:24:47,319 --> 01:24:48,896
I'm here...
810
01:24:49,403 --> 01:24:51,727
For a long time, no one waited for me...
811
01:24:52,780 --> 01:24:53,780
Why here?
812
01:24:54,905 --> 01:24:57,395
There was a market here...
813
01:24:57,698 --> 01:24:58,895
I was selling books...
814
01:24:59,907 --> 01:25:02,230
But now, here, everywhere,
815
01:25:02,533 --> 01:25:03,774
none of this matters.
816
01:25:04,743 --> 01:25:05,743
But you?
817
01:25:07,034 --> 01:25:08,528
Because you travel alone
818
01:25:08,744 --> 01:25:09,904
at night along this road?
819
01:25:10,370 --> 01:25:11,862
Tell me your story.
820
01:25:13,746 --> 01:25:14,776
It's long!
821
01:25:15,830 --> 01:25:16,830
For a long time
822
01:25:16,913 --> 01:25:19,367
I did not hear a human voice.
823
01:25:19,664 --> 01:25:21,372
I am a student of calligraphy.
824
01:25:21,998 --> 01:25:24,036
I was wondering what love is,
825
01:25:25,083 --> 01:25:26,083
when one day
826
01:25:26,791 --> 01:25:28,866
I found a half-burned page.
827
01:25:30,168 --> 01:25:32,658
To find out more, I looked for the book,
828
01:25:33,294 --> 01:25:34,836
but I didn't find it.
829
01:25:36,796 --> 01:25:38,419
Then I lost my teacher.
830
01:25:39,088 --> 01:25:40,088
And then?
831
01:25:41,381 --> 01:25:43,040
I met Aziz.
832
01:25:43,798 --> 01:25:44,995
Who is Aziz?
833
01:25:46,049 --> 01:25:47,958
I lost her before I knew it...
834
01:25:48,967 --> 01:25:51,539
And what was on the burned page?
835
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:53,761
A dream.
836
01:25:53,968 --> 01:25:55,213
What kind of dream?
837
01:25:55,595 --> 01:25:57,171
It wasn't just a dream.
838
01:25:58,595 --> 01:26:01,216
I saw the Princess of Samarkand.
839
01:26:02,346 --> 01:26:05,262
People often run
after a dream. One day
840
01:26:05,556 --> 01:26:07,631
they run through it and don't recognize it.
841
01:26:11,058 --> 01:26:12,966
This pen belonged to a calligrapher
842
01:26:13,268 --> 01:26:14,466
which spent 20 years
843
01:26:14,893 --> 01:26:17,098
to write the letter "waw".
844
01:26:18,103 --> 01:26:19,103
Take it.
845
01:27:46,009 --> 01:27:47,010
The "waw", Hassan,
846
01:27:48,469 --> 01:27:50,128
it is the only letter of the alphabet
847
01:27:50,428 --> 01:27:51,886
which has its own meaning.
848
01:27:53,637 --> 01:27:55,131
Unique and multiple, like God.
849
01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:02,379
The traveller's letter.
850
01:28:03,757 --> 01:28:05,216
The letter "waw".
