Lilia, we're here. This time, we have to beat Daly.

I know, they're stealing the 7 of diamonds from him!

Yes, we have to take it from him.

Harder, Sofiène!

Hello.

Hello.

Wait for me!

Grandma is upstairs.

Mom.

Lilia.

You were able to get there on time.

I still can't believe it.

They're performing the postmortem wash.

Hayet.

Grandma's waiting for you.

- What about the chanters? - They've gone to pray.

Your uncle has left, my Lilia.

I said to her: "Lilia's coming; come welcome her."

He's gone.

He left me.

Poor thing...

May God grant him His mercy.

Wow!

May God give you strength.

Néfissa, may God help you.

May God protect your Lilia.

Daly is ready in Grandma's room.

Do you want to see him before they take him away?

If you have nothing to say to him, you bless him.

Want to play Chkobba?

Do you know how to play?

Who wants to go first? Cut, Lilia.

Next up is you, Sofiène.

Cheater!

No, I didn't cheat!

I have the 7 of diamonds. I always seem to draw it.

No, you're cheating.

No, that's not true.

Please, let me see it.

You're welcome.

Leave him alone.

Go ahead.

The men are coming to take him away.

My uncle.

Don't say that.

Stop assuming the worst.

She doesn't know the details.

You bet—nothing gets past him.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Your mom is insisting for no reason.

Your brother was found naked, dead on the street—and I'm wrong?

What?

Naked?

Yes, Mom, I'm on my way.

Mom, is that true?

That's true.

How are you?

So, what did the autopsy show?

Nothing at all.

Help me.

In this country, it's a curse.

Are you seeing someone? Is that why?

Let's not see you around anymore.

I'll help you if you have kids.

Why are you in the dark?

Would you like a mojito?

Did you think of me at the duty-free shop?

It's in the bedroom.

Don't say anything to your mom.

Don't worry.

That's a shocking story.

Don't think about it anymore.

What, you're not thinking about it anymore?

Is that all?

Here you go, Wahida.

The cemetery is full, Mom.

We need to choose the verse to engrave.

She loses her Tunisian boyfriend.

If only!

Shall we go home, girls?

He dares to come all the way here?

What nerve!

Hayet, tell him to leave!

I don't want to see him anymore!

Leave me alone!

To think that back then, there were nothing but olive trees here.

May the olive trees rest in peace.

Without children or descendants.

Don't worry about me.

Look who's here.

- My condolences. - Thank you.

My condolences.

Come in—my uncle is on his way.

We're with the police.

Can we talk to someone?

Just a minute, I'll be right back. Please have a seat.

It's the police.

The police?

What do they want?

I hope no one sees them.

Sorry to bother you.

There are some points that need to be clarified

regarding the death of Mohamed-Ali Dhahbi.

What?

Did Muhammad Ali have any conflicts or enemies?

No.

We need every single element to...

understand the condition in which it was found.

Didn't you mention a heart attack?

What's the point of snooping around anymore? It's over.

That's what the medical examiner says,

but the prosecutor needs more evidence,

to find out whether he will launch an investigation.

After desecrating his corpse,

Are you trying to cause a scandal?

Do you know Lotfi Dhahbi?

That's my son.

The former member of Congress.

Of course.

Thanks to him, we quickly received the autopsy report.

But there are still some misunderstandings.

Any misunderstandings?

What do you want to understand?

What's there to understand?

Please excuse her; she just buried her son.

You're welcome.

Get down!

I know you're there!

Who's yelling like that?

He's making a racket in front of the neighbors!

Who calls him in the middle of the night?

Daly isn't here.

I know he's there!

I said no! Stop it, you're going to wake up the neighbors.

Let me see it.

I'm not leaving!

Go get rid of that nuisance for us.

He's making a big fuss.

Daly isn't here.

Please, go away.

I have to see him.

Let me go—I'm not leaving.

We called the police.

Go away!

Aïcha!

Take them.

Where is Mehdi?

Didn't he come?

As usual.

What do you mean, Alice?

Is she home?

I said I was working.

Can I help you?

They're going to drive her crazy.

Who is that?

What's with the attitude?

- Who is it? - The police.

Eat.

The police?

Yes, the police.

- Why are they here? - I don't know.

Didn't your brother go see them?

- Yeah, he went there. - So what?

I don't know, I'll check it out.

Don't let them come up.

Discuss it below.

That stings.

We have some new information we'd like to discuss with you.

We figured out who Daly was.

To us, that explains how we found him.

Would you like some coffee or tea?

Thanks, but we're not staying.

I'd love a glass of water.

In other words, "Who was Daly?"

Excuse me?

Who are you again?

His sister's daughter.

Basically, his inclinations...

and the people he associated with,

That might explain his death.

You should have told us everything from the start.

What should I tell you?

Because of his sexual orientation.

What difference does it make?

That makes a big difference. Any information is helpful to the investigation.

Do you think this might be a homophobic attack?

In the absence of any signs of violence,

The doctor concluded that it was a heart attack.

His heart must have stopped during sex...

Well, sex.

Can you prove it?

We can dig it up to check.

Are you crazy? That's all we need!

Thank you.

May he rest in peace.

He had it coming.

Excuse me?

Go ahead and say he deserves it!

Show some respect.

My brother's body is still warm.

It's your fault that he felt free to say that.

It's easy to be far away.

To make things more complicated?

Who was taking care of Daly?

Who handles the grocery shopping? Meals? Bills?

I accepted him just as he is.

There's a context.

And where did that context get you?

At the grave.

Nothing at all.

We ruined his life—why should we grant him dignity in death?

Yes, Mom, I'm on my way.

Come on!

It's still me!

Come down, I'll help you get to the other side.

Move down a little.

Is that okay?

Cut here.

Pass me the pruning shears.

What?

Show me.

Take it easy, please!

Mom, we've never talked, you and I, about Daly.

Why were you upset?

It's a long story.

On the contrary.

What do you mean?

What do you want me to tell you?

In Sousse.

He wasn't able to do it.

Now he's dead.

Come take a look.

Look, she's pretty.

I know her.

This is the first time I've ever been in his room.

What do you mean?

You can tell he's never been happy.

Your husband is a jerk, and nobody says anything to you.

Don't worry. I'm fine, thanks.

What would you like to know?

I get the feeling that we weren't talking to each other.

It had been years since we'd seen each other.

You used to come here a lot, didn't you?

No.

He was going somewhere else.

It used to be our café.

We met here.

Do you remember that we got him married?

Your grandmother had organized everything.

Did he agree?

He agreed.

What about you?

What happens next?

He became withdrawn.

He started drinking.

Didn't you try to see him again?

Often.

But he died before that.

Take a walk around wearing a hat.

There are already some fans.

Lesbians?

It's rare to see you here.

Is that your girlfriend?

What a blast—that's crazy!

She's lucky.

What a vagina!

"Vagina" means "bomb."

Let go of me!

She's jealous.

So, what's Zak like?

Is he circumcised?

Bayrem!

Where's the beer?

Mohamed-Ali Dhahbi, did you know him?

Our condolences.

May he rest in peace.

Thank you.

Did you know him?

Actually,

There are some things we don't know.

You know what?

Daly was very tired toward the end.

Why do you say that?

This isn't *Columbo* or *Law & Order*.

Come on, let's liven things up a bit!

Why?

Girls!

Girls! Wait!

I wanted to talk to you in private.

This is going to sound weird to you.

And I know who did it.

But there's nothing I can do.

I'll go to jail if I file a complaint.

I'm sorry.

As you know...

Ever since Daly died, I've been dwelling on it.

Daly, that evening,

left La Cabane with a friend, Bédis.

Since then, Bédis has gone missing. His cell phone is turned off.

Who is Bédis?

Do you know where he lives?

I went there, but I couldn't find it.

He might be with his family.

In a village an hour away from Sousse.

What's their relationship with Daly like?

They were always together.

Do you want to go there?

You know, Daly—when he was drinking, he didn't hold back.

He said whatever was on his mind.

It was really annoying.

You mean that's why he died?

I don't know.

And don't drag me into this.

Got it?

Got it.

Do you know how to get to Saadallah?

Which way is it?

Keep going straight down this path...

Kids!

Kids!

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Do you know anyone named Bédis?

- Yes, I know him. - Really?

Can you call him?

What do you want from him?

I just want to talk to him.

Bédis.

There's a woman looking for you.

- Hello. - Hello, how are you?

Is that you, Bédis?

Yeah, it's me. Is everything okay?

Yeah, I just want to talk to you about Daly.

We could talk somewhere...

Alone?

Go back there.

- Wait for me. - We're almost there.

So, why are you here? Who are you?

I'm Daly's niece.

I heard you were with him that last night.

I want to know what happened...

Who told you that and sent you here?

If you know it, then everyone knows it.

I didn't do anything to him! Why me?

I swear, I didn't do anything!

OK, don't worry.

I have nothing to do with this!

Look at me.

Don't be afraid.

I believe you.

Listen to me.

I don't mean you any harm.

Don't be afraid.

Are you Lilia from France?

Daly has told me a lot about you.

He wished you well, to you and your girlfriend.

But we never talked about it.

Daly—may he rest in peace—had a knack for reading people.

When I left, he was still alive.

How did he end up like this?

What happened that led him to end up...

naked?

He took his clothes off all by himself.

He was acting like a madman.

Were you two together when he got naked?

You were...

What are you implying?

Daly was like my father.

And you're just going to leave it like that?

He wouldn't let me get him dressed again.

He was struggling and screaming.

It drew too much attention.

Believe me, it's the truth.

Do you know where he was going next?

If you know something, Bédis, you have to say it.

Don't protect a killer.

And what about me—who will protect me?

Do you think they'll listen to me?

They're just waiting for us to die!

My deepest condolences.

Thank you.

Who's that?

Should I roll out the red carpet for him?

May he rest in peace.

Look who's here.

Why is she here?

She came from Paris.

Daly was my friend. I thought very highly of him.

May he rest in peace.

Do you remember that?

My deepest condolences.

Mom, it's Salah.

Salah, he's gone.

He loved you very much, you and Lilia.

- May he rest in peace. - Thank you.

I'm going outside with the guys.

My condolences.

My condolences; may he rest in peace.

Eat a little.

Mom, what are you doing?

So what?

I've seen you naked before.

Has this become a problem?

Just leave the door open.

Don't be silly.

I saw you.

Should I get dressed, and then we can talk about it?

How long has your father known?

Answer.

That's not the point.

As usual.

He's turning you against me.

Is this the time to settle the score with Dad?

I know.

You're right.

So?

Is that the girl, or is it you?

You've always liked boys.

That's just the way I am.

You'll see how great it is.

How could you have lied so much?

But I couldn't.

You'll get over it.

Can you put me through?

And you're telling me, "It'll pass"?

It would be easier if you weren't.

Simpler for whom?

It's easier for you.

How to easily travel to Tunisia.

You could have thought of that!

Are you crazy?

Here?

Why not me?

Look at me.

And you want me to agree that quickly?

Mom, I'm sorry.

Let go of me, Lilia.

Please get out of here.

What's going on with you?

We used to be together all the time.

A big crowd at the beach.

Haven't you heard?

What?

Yes.

Want to hear something else?

Poor thing.

She's gotten so ugly!

She used to be beautiful.

If you see her, you won't recognize her.

And Sami is still glued to Sayédi.

Who is Sayédi?

What a bunch of gossips— worse than the women of Fark!

That's not all. He's gay.

Excuse me? Is it normal to talk like that?

You don't mind swear words, do you?

I don't care about that.

But what you're saying isn't normal.

You're too smart—this is over your head.

In fact, it is punishable by law.

What, Aïcha? I don't have a problem with them.

That is Tunisian law.

This law is no longer relevant today.

What era is this? Are you trying to act all modern?

Like a contagious disease...

I'll become mayor and marry you.

I'm getting the hell out of this country.

Let's download it tonight!

That's all we needed.

Your documents and the vehicle's documents.

Is that a rental car?

Yes.

I came from France for my uncle's funeral.

My condolences.

Do you drive like that in France?

Have you been drinking, Lilia?

Sorry, I took the wrong exit...

Answer me—have you been drinking?

No.

Your friend's papers.

She's French; she doesn't have them.

What should we do?

Shall we go to the police station and take a breathalyzer test?

Why would we go to the police station? There's nothing there.

You want to teach me how to do my job?

What do you do for a living?

Excuse me?

There you go.

Tunisia Helps You Grow

and you abandon it.

That's normal.

When you can save your own skin...

There are jobs over there.

And money.

What do we do now, Lilia?

You can go.

I'm sorry.

I've forgiven you, so go ahead.

Take it easy!

You asshole!

Did you go for a swim?

It's not that time of year yet. You're going to get sick.

No, I'm fine. The water was nice.

Give him some halva.

No, he's had enough sugar.

There are dried fruits in it.

It's too sweet.

I didn't sleep.

Yeah, you don't look well.

Your mom told me.

We need to understand her.

Daly's life caused us pain.

Got it?

Just like you.

Trust me, it's the best solution.

What are you doing?

I'm going to sleep.

In Daly's room?

Mom, do you want to watch "Questions pour un champion"?

Why?

It's a sin during the mourning period.

It's not written in the Quran.

The Quran?

You really have no shame.

It's a mess.

Should I check your blood pressure?

Stop it.

Take it from your patients and leave me alone.

Come on, there's a bird.

Again?

Hurry!

Hayet, the bird is back.

He's there.

Open it.

Where is he?

Leave it alone; it'll come out on its own.

Wait.

I have a technique.

Take it easy!

Fly, little bird, fly.

That's it, sing!

He's going to go out that way.

Lotfi called.

I said I was staying with Mom just in case anyone came over.

You've been called here because there's something new.

The owner of the restaurant where Mohamed-Ali spent his last evening

told us that he had left with a young man.

We found him.

Did he do something to her?

No, he claims to have left him alive.

On the other hand, he says that some people

wanted to silence Daly, because he was getting in their way.

But for us,

They are above any suspicion.

There's nothing we can do about them.

Who's that?

What's going to happen, Commissioner?

If there is an investigation and a trial,

I guarantee you that my mother won't be able to stand it.

As you know, she is elderly.

May God protect her.

Listen, Mr. Lotfi.

The autopsy report mentions no signs of physical injury.

I spoke with the prosecutor, and he's going to dismiss the case.

This topic is closed.

Thank you for your work and your understanding.

That's normal. You do a lot for Sousse.

Call me anytime.

Thank you.

Excuse me, that man— has he been released?

No.

He's being held for another reason that's none of your business.

What's the reason?

Miss,

You didn't hear that right.

That's none of your business.

It's okay, just tell me.

Homosexuality.

Is Article 230 clearer?

Do you have any evidence?

The doctor must examine him.

Go ahead and arrest us all, then.

Excuse me?

Could you repeat that?

I'm dating a woman—someone stop me.

Listen.

In this country, there is a law, and we must enforce it.

Stop me.

What are you talking about?

She doesn't know what she's saying anymore.

Get up!

If you insist, we can look into it.

Have you all lost your minds?

Wahida, are you coming?

I'm staying with my daughter.

I love you.

There are several procedural defects.

...to apply Article 230.

Bédis helped me a lot.

My name is Moncèf.

If you need me, I'm here.

Okay?

It's as if Daly had told me to look out for you.

Hello, sweetheart.

Happy birthday.

She was there for Daly, remember?

I told him to come.

You're hopeless!
