Original subtitles

Dad, what does "his offspring" mean?

- What does "his offspring" mean? - His sons.

According to the Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld,

the fact of showing the corpses of Uday and Qusay,

Saddam Hussein's sons,

didn't violate the Geneva Convention.

Rumsfeld also said that the Iraqi Governing Council

asked to see the corpses to be certain of their death.

Look, there!

We can also shoot!

Can I test our weapon?

You want to kill someone?

I know how to use it.

You can empty the magazine and let me shoot ten bullets only.

Uncle! My mother is worried.

Uncle!

Come inside, Uncle!

Come inside! Mom is terrified!

Manar, come inside!

Come inside, Uncle!

All the neighbors fired yesterday.

Everyone fired yesterday.

They arrested Saddam.

I'd have liked to try our submachine-gun.

Everyone took the opportunity to test his weapon.

Uncle, you know who taught Iraqis to act like that?

Uday.

Whenever the Iraqi soccer team wins a match,

the gunshots illuminate the sky of Baghdad.

Yesterday, it was nothing in comparison!

You should see what they do when the national team wins a match!

They shoot like crazy.

Saddam's son taught them to act this way.

Be careful! The car is coming out.

I'm going to the store that provides food rations.

You filmed me when I went to get rations before the war.

Rationing is different now.

They don't give us the same foodstuffs.

The oil they used to give us wasn't good for our health.

We avoided using it.

Now they give us a better quality.

The price also changed.

Before it cost 2000 dinars. Now it's free.

It must be for free.

The people need rations, as many are unemployed.

People depend a lot on the rations.

- Did you shoot yesterday? - No.

Were they shooting in your neighborhood?

They were shooting like crazy.

- In our neighborhood too. - Why? What happened?

- Uday and Qusay have been killed. - Really?

Al-Jazeera showed the photos of their corpses.

Was it really them?

Yes, the information has been confirmed.

- By whom? - Their cousin denounced them.

They found four bodies... disfigured!

They've been identified by DNA.

The news was announced by Al-Jazeera.

The Pentagon hesitated before confirming it.

Americans killed them?

Yes. They were denounced by their cousin.

- Their cousin revealed their hiding place? - Yes.

- Why did he betray them? - They deserved it.

- They died long ago? - Yesterday.

So why did it take time to identify them?

It was necessary to examine their DNA to be sure.

It could be their doubles.

It may not be them.

There may be an error!

DNA excludes error.

Saddam and the Americans brought us nothing but misfortune.

We were occupied by the Tikritis and now by the Americans.

Your bag is pierced!

- Your bag is pierced. - Really?

No luck even with bags!

If someone gets hit with this!

The neighbors' son fired a lot yesterday. He could have killed someone.

Everyone fired yesterday.

In front of our house, there are plenty of bullet casings.

Here too there are many.

- In front of the shop? - In the street.

- Is the electricity functioning? - It functioned a bit today.

- For how many hours? - An hour or two.

Today it functioned for four hours.

Today only.

In our district, it functioned for only half an hour.

Some days it functions for two hours.

It's better than nothing.

Frequent power cuts screw up electrical appliances.

Once you connect an apparatus, the electricity cuts off!

Our life is punctuated by power outages, as in provincial towns!

Is this milk?

You have two cans.

- Oil cans? - Yes, two.

Ammar, this oil smells bad!

No.

This oil smells bad. People resell it.

It smells bad.

It smells fishy!

This is fish oil?

No, soybean oil. The bad smell won't last.

People don't use it.

They resell it.

Hold his picture.

Hold his picture.

Put it in place.

Put it in place.

He's our father.

He's our father.

With the lovely face.

With the lovely face.

You know this song, Uncle?

It is about Saddam.

Look at his picture!

The English book is full of his photos.

He issued orders to cut off the ears of deserters!

They had a reason to desert. Their weapons were obsolete!

They couldn't even shoot a bird with it!

How could they fight in these conditions?

Yet many of them fought for their country.

Not for Saddam, but for the country.

Some even volunteered to fight.

Saddam made them see hell!

A teacher, member of the Baath party,

told us to tear out Saddam's photos with respect.

A pupil replied, "Why with respect? After what he did to us!"

Then some pupils tore up the photos

and threw the pieces on the floor, in front of the teacher.

My nephew Ammar with a friend whose father was recently killed.

As required by the forensic medicine,

the corpse of my father was taken to the morgue.

In murder cases, the law requires an autopsy.

At the morgue, I saw the corpses of ten other people also killed by car thieves.

Innocent victims.

Their cars were not even new.

Cars over thirty years old.

Cars that date from the 80s.

Old cars with no commercial value.

It isn't the value of the car that motivates bandits,

but the act of stealing itself.

They probably steal the car to use it in further criminal acts.

My father was visiting friends.

He was expecting to stay with them for one hour or two.

He ate and drank with them.

He was then seen in the Karada district,

an hour before he was killed.

The curfew was beginning at eleven o'clock.

That didn't leave me enough time to search all of Baghdad.

Baghdad is a big city.

I was desperate.

At the police station, they told me they could do nothing.

They asked me to come back the next morning.

The next morning I didn't go.

I went out at 6:00 in the morning to go find my cousins.

We decided that each of us choose certain districts where to look.

We also went to the airport to inquire with the Coalition forces.

They might have arrested him if they had surprised him out after curfew.

We continued searching...

Then...

Take a break, Hussam!

We stayed awake all night,

without eating or drinking.

We were worried.

The next day also we couldn't eat or drink.

My mother suffered a lot because of this tragedy.

Why kill innocent people?

My father was a devout and kind man.

The reconstruction of Iraq is not an easy task.

But the Coalition forces are actively working on this reconstruction,

in collaboration with the Iraqi people and NGOs.

Thus, while the Coalition forces are working to restore security,

several international organizations

are preparing to send their employees to Iraq to help people,

particularly concerning nutrition and health...

In Basra and other cities of southern Iraq,

NGOs are already working in different sectors,

such as water purification, housing reconstruction,

and instruction of people about the dangers of mines.

Medical equipment was also delivered

to several hospitals in Basra and Baghdad...

The reconstruction of Iraq isn't easy, but with the cooperation of all,

Iraq will regain its place within the international community.

The whole house has been destroyed.

It was shelled.

All these houses were shelled.

This house for example is completely burned.

Entirely destroyed. Nothing could be saved.

Not even a spoon! Everything has melted.

Fortunately the inhabitants haven't been injured.

- Where do they live now? - In their daughter's house.

- They lost everything! - Yes.

Even the fan has melted!

- Only the prayer's turbah didn't burn. - They were pious.

God saved their lives.

They will rebuild the house with their own efforts.

With their own efforts? It isn't fair.

They have no more home. Is this fair?

They were not fighters.

No way to live in peace, nor under Saddam, nor after him!

Americans fired shells at the house.

However, there were no fighters here!

- These are tank shells. - Yes.

Their flour ration!

The gas cylinder exploded.

The cradle of civilization, our country has become the latest country colonized!

Is this acceptable?

Their soldiers didn't come to free us.

They came to enslave us and exploit our country's resources.

Iraqi munitions were hidden here.

Americans came and instead of taking the munitions away,

they took a box of explosives.

They placed it on the pile of ammunition, and then they blew up the whole thing!

Watch this grenade!

We don't know if it's dangerous or not.

People told them not to explode it here.

Americans responded that it isn't their responsibility.

And so they caused the destruction of all the surrounding houses.

The school yard.

Even the school has been destroyed.

Six families were living in the house there.

Look at the house!

Six families! They now live in a tent.

And there, a shelter of Fedayeen Saddam.

It was full of munitions.

And there, the car of the Fedayeen.

The thieves stole the motor and the tires.

Only the school sign remains!

This one has exploded!

Children play with these explosives.

There are a lot all over the place.

DShK.

- Mortar. - Heavy machine gun.

DShK.

Machine gun.

Machine gun.

DShK. Heavy machine gun.

Flare.

What exam do you have today?

Mechanics.

It's the penultimate exam. There'll be another one.

Manar finished her exams two days ago.

You finished before yesterday?

- Sunday. - She finished Sunday.

I'll take my final exam on Saturday.

We need to rest after a year of study.

Why are you going to college today?

To present my master's thesis.

Dad, why don't you pass by Al-Qaid Bridge?

Because there's too much traffic.

- How do you know? - I saw it this morning.

- And the road by Al-Masbah? - It's too congested.

Even the road by Al-Masbah?

We went out at 8:15.

It's rush hour.

We've arrived.

You got enough for your money.

Bye!

You're dressed elegantly to present your thesis!

Hussam is here! He'll clear off if he sees us.

They blew up a car.

A photo with us, pretty boy!

I was in the frame?

There were only three newspapers. Now there are fifty-eight.

They cost almost the same price.

Saddam is touring in Baghdad!

It's written in the newspaper.

Saddam is touring in Baghdad.

It's true. He was abroad.

And he came back with biological weapons.

He entered by Diyala and now he is in Baghdad.

He is touring in Baghdad.

The 17th of this month, Baghdad will be evacuated,

because Saddam intends to bombard the city with biological weapons.

Two percent of oil revenues will be distributed to Iraqi citizens

Saddam, star of action movies.

Under Saddam, the Faculty was provided with everything.

After the fall of the regime, the Faculty has been looted.

Iraqis stole everything. They left the Faculty entirely empty!

He comes with a camera and wants to shoot inside!

- Don't get upset! - The Faculty isn't yours!

Why is it forbidden to film here?

Permission is required.

- From who? - From the director.

Saddam has fallen. On behalf of which authority are you acting?

- Saddam has fallen, so what? - It's your father who has fallen! Get out!

We want to shoot in the Faculty. It belongs to everyone.

Ask him if he wants a bribe!

- Ask him if he wants money! - We want to enter.

- Give him money and he'll let you enter. - My brother and sister are students here.

- Give him money! - Give me!

To him.

What makes you laugh?

Repeat what you just said!

If I don't give you money, you won't let me get out!

Yes, I swear!

You make me ashamed in front of my uncle! Why do you act like this?

All students take photos on such occasions.

- You passed? - Yes.

- What grade did you get? - I don't know yet.

- You're so beautiful today! - Really?

Yes, very beautiful.

You too. All my friends say you're cute.

Are taxi drivers still targeted by armed bandits?

Yes, I saw some get killed.

I also saw cars getting shot at.

And I saw a car shooting at another car.

The road alongside Al-Rashid camp is especially dangerous.

The camp is surrounded by a wall.

Posing as a client, a bandit stops a taxi.

Then accomplices come out from behind the wall

and force the driver to give them his car.

Stop, darling!

Stop, Haidar!

Enough, Haidar! I'm cleaning the carpet.

Enough!

Darling!

My brother Ibrahim.

Look at the statue of Saddam!

People have destroyed it.

Saddam liked to erect statues of himself everywhere.

This is the building of the Special Security,

which was headed by Qusay.

It has been also destroyed.

Here too there was a statue of Saddam. Look what's left of it!

This is the Ministry of Planning.

It has been burned after the end of the war.

The building of Al-Sadoun Street.

Another building of the Special Security.

US tanks targeted it during fighting on this bridge.

Americans on the bridge!

This is Al-Ferdaous Square.

Former president Abd al-Karim Qasim erected here

the monument of the Unknown Soldier.

Saddam demolished the monument

and replaced it with his own statue.

When we saw the statue torn down, we knew the regime was finished.

This is the district of Al-Mahawil.

The largest mass grave in Iraq was discovered here.

Victims of the uprising against Saddam in 1991 were buried here.

Among the victims, there was your childhood friend Mohsen.

In your previous film, we told you he was missing.

We couldn't tell you that he had been arrested by the regime.

It was risky to tell the truth.

The remains of Mohsen were found in the mass grave near here.

He had committed no crime.

Mowafak, a childhood friend.

We are going to visit his brother Hassan, the only survivor of the family.

The whole family has been exterminated.

Even the father has been executed.

This is Hussein. He was an engineer.

Saïd, a teacher.

Rabih, a teacher also.

Mohsen.

An engineer.

And Mohamed, a student.

They were executed in 1983.

Only Rabih was executed in 1987.

My father was arrested several times.

After the execution of his sons, he remained alone.

He began to speak.

He couldn't silence his grief, so they arrested him.

Saïd became the father of a girl he couldn't see.

She was born while he was in prison.

Rabih's woman was pregnant.

She has been imprisoned too.

She gave birth in prison.

Photos of people executed after the revolt of 1991.

This is the photo of my brother.

They confiscated our house and deported our father.

They also executed my brother, without giving us his death certificate.

For two months, they tortured my three brothers and I.

We were schoolboys. It was in 1981.

The school principal tried in vain to plead our case.

They accused us of having written on the walls

that the regime had arrested our father.

My father was over sixty years old.

Who runs the city now?

Does the mayor have real powers?

Of course! He even has bodyguards and official cars.

Does he have a budget and an administration

to solve the problems of the city?

Only the Americans can answer your question.

They've been here for four months. What have they done for us?

There's a lack of gas, of gasoline...

They reduced the food rations.

What can we do with two kilos of rice per month?

How can we feed our children if we remain without work?

Look where I live!

If the owners hadn't allowed me to build a room,

I would be sleeping in the street!

We don't want charity, but work.

The only work that I've found is as a toilet cleaner!

- How many kids do you have? - Five.

- Five, plus your wife and you. - Seven in all.

You live in the room, there!

- These are your children? - Yes.

The owners allowed me to build this room.

I applied to work as a policeman.

They responded by accusing me of being Baathist,

While I had worked as a night watchman for nine years!

Who told them that you were Baathist?

Thieves I had arrested in the souk.

They were sentenced to 15 years in prison.

They wrote that I am harmful!

The so-called...

I was a grassroots Baathist.

Who wrote this report?

A police officer.

This candidate is a harmful Baathist.

His candidacy can't be accepted.

Candidacy rejected.

The thief that I caught in the souk told them that I was Baathist.

They demanded a testimonial confirming that I wasn't Baathist.

But when I brought them the testimonial, they told me that it was too late.

And I have all these kids to feed!

You see all this garbage!

Saddam was generous only with his relatives.

He gave them fancy cars and left us to ride on donkeys!

I had to work hard in order to pay back his army and police.

- This is the main entrance to the house? - Yes.

One suffocates when entering here!

We are eight, living in this small room!

There are no stairs or patio!

Were the government buildings looted in your city?

Not many.

- Would you loot one of Saddam's palaces? - No.

- If you do it, I can't blame you. - Yes.

Some people here...

when the looting began...

I set a checkpoint with my five brothers.

We stopped the cars.

We forced the looters to leave their booty.

Then we deposited the booty at the fire station.

Friends said to me, "You have nothing. Help yourself."

I replied, "Never."

I prefer to live poor rather than stealing someone else's belongings.

The looters were poor people?

Most were poor.

Most of them live in complete poverty.

Not all of them.

Some were not poor.

They even had cars.

You think they carried the stolen refrigerators on their backs?

Before these events, they didn't even have a bicycle!

There isn't a single house in Iraq without an electric fan, except mine!

Despite the heat!

Yet I'm not complaining.

Anyway there's nobody to listen to our complaints.

When I went to City Hall, they called me a Baathist.

Okay, I am a Baathist...

Who called you a Baathist?

When I went to the City Hall...

they asked me, "Aren't you a Baathist?"

I replied, "Yes, but do you know that five of my relatives were executed by Saddam!"

One of them, my uncle, was the first martyr in Hillah.

The first martyr in Hillah.

- He was also buried in the mass grave? - No.

He was a member of the Islamist party Al-Dawa.

His death sentence is mentioned.

Court of Babylon.

Name of the deceased: Hamza Abdel-Hussein Kadem...

Here's his photo. The first soldier martyr in Hillah.

Sentenced to death by hanging.

Section of Heavy Sentences. Cause of Death: Hanging.

Here's his photo.

The date?

April 26th, 1980.

He was executed because of his membership in Al-Dawa Party?

Or because he deserted the army?

Because of Al-Dawa Party.

We were under surveillance.

Look at the ceiling!

Come see the inside! Everything is made of cardboard!

The room is empty!

There isn't a single house like this in all Iraq.

Made of cardboard.

In winter, rain gets in through the ceiling!

Too much water, we don't know even where to put the buckets!

Did you see a house like this in all Iraq?

It's unhealthy. Everything is made of cardboard.

And the house is empty. All we have is what you see.

Did you see the palaces of Saddam?

Saddam's toilets are better than my house.

Saddam's toilets are better than my house.

Is this a house worthy of a Muslim?

These are the tires of my donkey carriage!

I earn my living by driving a donkey carriage.

Fancy cars for Saddam's relatives, and a donkey carriage for us!

What do you do when it rains?

We collect water in buckets and empty it in the street.

- Are there sewers here? - No.

There is this pit. We empty it when it is full.

- Where do you empty it? - In the street.

When it rains, we can't protect ourselves.

And if a fire starts, no way to extinguish it.

Have you ever seen a house like this?

Look at the roof!

The Americans came here the other day.

They were chasing someone.

They couldn't believe their eyes when they saw this roof.

They were afraid to walk on it.

If we built something with bricks, the roof would collapse.

Can someone find a solution for us?

Come and see our house!

We are tenants and the landlord is harassing us to recover the house.

We've lived here for eight years.

Without the generosity of our neighbors, we wouldn't even have an electric fan.

Their situation is really hard.

Her son was with me in the army.

He's still missing.

Her son was with me in the 111th brigade.

Are you filming me?

Sir, film me!

It's my turn!

She's my cousin!

You didn't film me!

- Abu Assia, you were a Communist? - Yes.

- An active member? - Yes.

I am an old militant.

Are you a leading member?

No, a mere member.

The late lamented Rafik was also a Communist.

Rafik, Hassan's father...

and Mohamed's father.

Rafik is dead.

His son Hassan has been executed.

He was a teacher.

- Saddam executed him? - Yes.

- Because he was a Communist? - Yes.

He was an important figure in the party!

- Rafik? - Yes.

The whole family was Communist.

All were Communists.

Even the youngest son, Mohamed.

- You're in which party now? - Always the same.

Who leads you now?

I will continue to believe in Marxism until my death.

A donkey-drawn cart! Bush should see this!

I ride on a donkey!

- Bush isn't responsible for that. - Who then?

Someone should find us a solution!

You say nothing about Saddam!

Saddam, that's him: My donkey!

He gave cars to his relatives and let us ride on donkeys.

Your record is scratched! You should change it.

This is the first time we're going out since the end of exams.

Why the first time?

It's dangerous to go out alone. We need to be accompanied.

Even me...

I avoid going out because of insecurity.

I go out as little as possible.

Armed attack!

There are many armed attacks.

Car robberies...

There are also...

junkies who act abnormally.

They're in line for gasoline.

There's a serious shortage of gasoline.

In addition to water and electricity shortages.

You see the traffic anarchy!

There's no order and no agents to regulate the traffic!

We're going to the office that provides food ration cards.

Following the embargo instituted in 1991,

the ration card became indispensable.

The regime took this opportunity to subject people.

He deprived of rations all families related to army deserters.

Myself, I was confronted with a problem when I returned to Iraq in 1999.

I didn't have a ration card.

When I made a request to get a card,

I encountered a big problem.

The allocation of cards was dependent on the place of birth.

The problem is that I was born in Hillah.

Hillah was blacklisted by the regime.

After the revolt of 1991, the regime created a blacklist

including the cities which rebelled against Saddam.

As punishment, these cities were deprived of public services.

For this reason, when I came to Baghdad,

I couldn't get a ration card.

Because my identity card mentions my birth in Hillah.

I tried everything, including paying bribes.

Without result.

I even met a senior official of the Ministry of Commerce.

He told me that I can get a card only in Hillah.

Despite the fact that I live and work in Baghdad!

I tried everything. In vain.

Now that the regime has fallen,

it's become easier.

Every citizen can get his rights.

So I made a request, and I'm going to see if my card is ready.

I hope the official is there.

Citizens who come here...

they all have problems with the ration card.

You come to film while half of the officials aren't here!

- They aren't here? - Many are absent.

There should be two desks: One here and one for the principal's office.

Good morning!

I made a request for a card, for my wife's family and me.

Your request has been accepted.

We have searched your name.

Apparently you weren't in Iraq,

because your name wasn't registered anywhere.

I registered your name. Within a week, your card will be ready.

So next month, you will get your ration.

Your card is almost ready.

Thanks a lot!

You came to see me some time ago.

I sent your request to the Ministry.

They searched your name on their computers.

They consulted all their computers in Iraq.

And they didn't find your name.

How can we work without electricity?

Our work depends on computers.

All our work depends on electricity.

You have to wait until the Director comes back to sign your request.

All these fields bordering the road were owned by relatives of Saddam.

His sons, cousins, bodyguards.

It was forbidden to pass by here and take pictures.

Thousands of people were assigned to the protection of these fields.

Every night they were celebrating, singing and dancing.

A life of pleasure, while many people don't even have a roof!

A beautiful area!

Green, close to the river...

Saddam transformed it into a military zone.

Occupied by thousands of useless soldiers.

Film this! Blocking the street to build a house!

April 26th.

There were explosions.

A missile landed here.

At 8:30 in the morning.

There were six dead and nine wounded in my house.

This house was also destroyed.

Nine other nearby houses were damaged.

The missile hit at 8:15.

People were having their breakfast.

After the explosion, we found the breakfast dishes,

but no sign of the inhabitants.

People fled after the explosion?

They ran bleeding.

Even on the street there, people were bleeding.

His whole body is covered with scars.

Six members of my family died.

My brother Khazal...

He was married and this is his son.

My brother Hassan and his wife also died.

Ammar and Khadija also. Six died.

With the help of neighbors,

we disinterred the corpses from under the concrete blocks.

One of the girls is now disfigured.

She was washing her hands.

The explosion catapulted her through the door.

Her face was entirely shredded.

She's fourteen years old.

You should not remain silent!

To whom can we talk?

Even a humanitarian organization, the Red Cross, advised us to go rob!

To loot like other Iraqis!

I told them that we aren't thieves. They replied that it's our problem.

The Americans have proven to be worse than Saddam.

They promised us security and prosperity, and we got only chaos!

We dare not go out in the street after sunset.

Because we're afraid of both Americans and Iraqis.

- You're afraid of thieves? - Of thieves and murderers.

There is no security.

If someone fires a bullet on Americans, they react by shooting everyone.

They don't even spare women and the elderly!

Uncle! Who will compensate these people?

And where will they live?

Nobody cares about these people.

No government official has come to inquire about their situation.

Men condemned to unemployment, when they have families to feed!

Do you think the attacks are made

by people whose homes were destroyed by the Americans?

If someone destroys your house, what could he expect?

You will fight him until your last breath.

In Ramadi, they attacked the Americans with rockets.

It's nothing.

How nothing?

If popular resistance organizes itself...

and if the people revolt against the occupation,

the situation will change.

Americans will no longer dare move into town.

They will stay away.

They will dare move only by helicopter.

They proved that they are even more incompetent than Saddam.

In everything.

They don't understand the mentality of the people

and don't know how to run the country.

They're unable to resolve any problem.

Even the electricity worked better under Saddam!

They rob cars.

A neighbor who works as a taxi driver got attacked by armed bandits.

They pointed a gun at his temple.

They stabbed him in the heart, then killed him with a bullet.

He's telling the truth. Armed robberies happen in broad daylight.

My apprentice has a cousin.

He was driving his taxi when bandits attacked him.

As he refused to give them his car, they killed him.

The cousin of my apprentice.

He was killed 42 days ago.

Fourteen days ago, my wife was about to give birth.

I wanted to take her to the hospital, but there were no taxis.

I then asked my neighbor to take us in his car.

He was afraid of the Americans.

I confided my two daughters to the neighbors,

and then went with my wife in the car.

But on the way, we had to stop at an American checkpoint.

I told them we were going to the hospital,

but they ordered us to turn back.

I explained to them that my wife was about to give birth.

They responded by threatening us.

They didn't speak Arabic, but I understood their gestures.

Finally I returned home with my wife.

And a neighbor midwife helped my wife to give birth.

If complications had occurred, my wife would have died during delivery.

Why are they so afraid of us?

We are peaceful. Why are they so afraid of us?

When they pass by here, they point their guns at us.

I sell motor oil on the sidewalk.

Why do they point their guns at me?

I'm harmless. Why are they afraid of me?

They haven't kept any of their promises.

If someone doesn't keep his promises,

it means that he is a liar. Doesn't it?

And we can't trust liars.

They promised to transform Iraq in two weeks,

and to make Baghdad look like Tokyo!

Where's their Tokyo? We want to recover our former Baghdad.

All this is a consequence of the occupation.

They occupy our country.

They exploit our natural resources.

And in return, they leave us without electricity.

At the time of Hussein Kamel, electricity was restored in 45 days,

despite the fact that electrical installations had been bombed.

This time the installations haven't been bombed, yet electricity doesn't work!

Americans are liars, that's all.

I passed.

Uncle, the principal wants to talk to you.

You're as beautiful as a bride!

He's filming us!

You only got 70 out of 100 in History?

The exam was difficult and I didn't study well.

And it was too hot.

So what!

Wait!

Cross!

Why are you waiting to cross?

- Do you have any cold drinks? - Yes.

- How much for a can? - 750 dinars for two.

Give us three, quite cold.

Hurry up, Kanar!

I got good marks.

Except in History, I got 73.

- How much? - 73. It's my only result below 80.

Why?

The exam was difficult and the teacher didn't explain the questions.

The program was extensive and we didn't have time to finish it.

- Dad, got any money? - In the car.

In the glove box.

Buy a watermelon.

Ask the seller to make sure it's red and sweet.

And if it isn't sweet?

Don't buy it. Tell him before he cuts it.

We don't want a cucumber!

A red cucumber!

Do you want to see my school report?

I have very good marks.

- What did you get in French? - 99.

- And in English? - 81.

- You got better marks in French? - Yes.

- Why? - French is easier.

Where did you learn French?

I worked with the French for 25 years.

Show me!

Here are the final marks!

Very good!

Bravo!

Congratulations!

The Americans!

The Americans arrived.

They arrived?

There!

Where are the Americans?

Where did they go?

They went dancing?

Shall we dance?

We'll go and see your mom.

Who said she has small eyes?

Your sister!

You see her, Abbas?

We can pierce her ears if you have earrings.

She looks like her grandmother!

She has a mark on her cheek!

It is the mark of forceps.

It will disappear in two days.

On April 4th, 2003, a missile destroyed the house of little Dina.

Her father, her mother, her sister and her two aunts died.

The explosion threw Dina outside the house.

She miraculously survived.

Sisters Hospital.

It is an error to go through this intersection,

but it shortens the trip.

We're supposed to take another road.

This road passes by Al-Rashid camp.

- Wounded! - Uncle!
