1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:03,674
The Arab Co. for Film
Production & Distribution presents
2
00:00:04,771 --> 00:00:06,466
A production by
3
00:00:30,564 --> 00:00:31,588
IN
4
00:02:23,744 --> 00:02:26,179
Ruby.. Ruby, come here
5
00:02:32,619 --> 00:02:33,780
Don't you want to eat?
6
00:02:48,201 --> 00:02:49,532
Well, Ruby!
7
00:03:23,170 --> 00:03:28,199
The world's just a feather
wingless in the air
8
00:03:29,409 --> 00:03:34,779
Today we're here together,
tomorrow who knows where
9
00:03:35,015 --> 00:03:37,541
We'll be in the world
10
00:03:48,028 --> 00:03:50,895
You who wonder about life
11
00:03:51,098 --> 00:03:53,897
Take it as it is
12
00:03:54,935 --> 00:03:57,495
There are smiles, there's pain
13
00:03:57,704 --> 00:04:00,571
Cruelty and tenderness
14
00:04:02,642 --> 00:04:04,576
Life is full
15
00:04:05,979 --> 00:04:08,209
Of those who give
16
00:04:09,082 --> 00:04:14,486
Those who satisfy it..
Those who suffer it
17
00:07:19,406 --> 00:07:22,740
He's nothing to her now.
She was just afraid for the kids
18
00:07:23,376 --> 00:07:25,401
Men don't want custody of
their kids anymore
19
00:07:25,612 --> 00:07:29,014
They're more than glad to
evade responsibility
20
00:07:29,582 --> 00:07:33,610
My sister's ex boasts that his
daughter's at the American University
21
00:07:33,820 --> 00:07:35,754
and doesn't even know the fees
22
00:07:39,626 --> 00:07:40,787
Be strong, dear
23
00:07:54,708 --> 00:07:58,736
- Something wrong, Aunt?
- Not at all, dear
24
00:07:59,179 --> 00:08:01,204
But don't you use sugar
in this house?
25
00:08:02,682 --> 00:08:04,377
I'll have Adly bring you some
26
00:08:11,825 --> 00:08:12,951
Azza, where's Rabie?
27
00:08:13,126 --> 00:08:17,029
- How can he not attend the burial?
- I'm worried about him
28
00:08:17,864 --> 00:08:20,094
Do you know where Rabie is, Salma?
29
00:08:20,667 --> 00:08:22,761
- No
- He didn't say anything?
30
00:08:25,338 --> 00:08:29,002
- Camelia, what should I do?
- Just sit down
31
00:08:30,410 --> 00:08:31,400
That must be him
32
00:08:33,947 --> 00:08:38,248
- The sugar, Ma'am
- Sugar! I can't wait any longer
33
00:08:38,485 --> 00:08:40,180
Go call one of his friends
34
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,751
- ll don't know any
- Bring the phone book and I'll call
35
00:08:45,392 --> 00:08:47,451
Hey! How can you dawdle so?
36
00:08:48,728 --> 00:08:51,322
- What's wrong?
- I've never seen such a thing
37
00:08:51,664 --> 00:08:53,462
- Of course! If he was..
- Azza!
38
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,302
You've no idea how sensitive
my brother Rabie is
39
00:08:57,704 --> 00:08:59,638
He may harm himself
40
00:09:28,568 --> 00:09:31,538
- Uncle Rabie
- Salma
41
00:09:32,505 --> 00:09:36,772
- Where've you been?
- Hi, what're you doing here?
42
00:09:36,976 --> 00:09:40,173
You're not a child to behave
as you did.. talk to me!
43
00:09:40,380 --> 00:09:43,816
I'm hungry and I have a headache.
Feed me or go home
44
00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:47,609
This is my reward for neglecting
my home and staying here with you!
45
00:09:47,854 --> 00:09:51,290
You're here to get away
from your husband's face
46
00:09:51,591 --> 00:09:54,652
- How could you, Rabie!
- Didn't you print Mom's obituary?
47
00:09:55,495 --> 00:09:57,657
Aren't you going to work today?
48
00:09:58,098 --> 00:10:00,624
Get dressed; Azza will drive you
49
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:02,925
I want a word with you
50
00:10:04,404 --> 00:10:06,964
Rabie, think of yourself a little
51
00:10:07,941 --> 00:10:11,468
Listen to me. What's the
situation with you and her now?
52
00:10:11,644 --> 00:10:13,908
Enough nonsense. Salma's
like a daughter to me
53
00:10:14,581 --> 00:10:18,848
It's enough you married a woman
from Shubra against our wishes
54
00:10:19,052 --> 00:10:20,952
We'll not be responsible for
her daughter
55
00:10:21,654 --> 00:10:24,351
Our only link to her is gone
56
00:10:24,524 --> 00:10:27,221
Where're you going?
Are you drunk?
57
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:30,459
I've been worried sick about
you and you don't care!
58
00:10:35,602 --> 00:10:36,831
Did you sleep well?
59
00:10:42,208 --> 00:10:43,801
Going to work today?
60
00:10:47,013 --> 00:10:47,912
Yes
61
00:10:51,184 --> 00:10:52,413
How many sugars?
62
00:10:55,121 --> 00:10:56,418
I don't take sugar
63
00:11:46,005 --> 00:11:48,770
Laila, stop crying or I'll get up
and leave
64
00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:03,250
Nagwa? Very pretty
65
00:12:05,792 --> 00:12:06,782
My condolences
66
00:12:07,493 --> 00:12:10,690
I wanted to tell you before but
feared you wouldn't know me
67
00:12:11,297 --> 00:12:14,460
I'm your neighbor but I know
you're not acquainted with anyone
68
00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:18,035
By the way..
69
00:12:19,105 --> 00:12:22,370
I had some things for Mrs. Nagwa.
May I bring them to you?
70
00:12:35,121 --> 00:12:37,954
Come, Salma. Greet your aunt Laila
71
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,701
- My condolences
- Thank you. Please have a seat
72
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:53,598
No thanks, I was leaving
73
00:12:54,774 --> 00:12:57,573
I just need the bathroom;, crying
has ruined my face
74
00:12:58,011 --> 00:13:01,208
- This way
- I know the way
75
00:13:05,151 --> 00:13:07,210
I went and did something..
76
00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:09,889
That'll make you want to do
the same.. Look
77
00:13:10,256 --> 00:13:11,451
I changed my car
78
00:13:12,992 --> 00:13:15,017
I forgot something downstairs
79
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:18,325
Take a closer look at the car
while you're at it
80
00:13:22,135 --> 00:13:23,102
Telephone, sir
81
00:13:23,770 --> 00:13:25,431
What're you doing?
82
00:13:25,972 --> 00:13:27,872
How can you stay at a hotel alone?
83
00:13:28,107 --> 00:13:31,133
What's your room number?
I'm coming up
84
00:13:32,845 --> 00:13:34,643
A moment.. how are you
related to her?
85
00:13:54,934 --> 00:13:57,494
What're you doing, Salma?
What happened?
86
00:13:58,504 --> 00:14:01,872
- I don't want to be a burden
- A burden!
87
00:14:02,742 --> 00:14:04,540
What idiotic talk!
88
00:14:04,744 --> 00:14:08,544
- The woman you saw with me is..
- I've no right to know who she is
89
00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:13,176
- She came to pay condolences
- It's your house. Receive whom you want
90
00:14:13,853 --> 00:14:15,048
It's your house, too
91
00:14:19,425 --> 00:14:20,517
No, it's not
92
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:23,261
Don't be silly.
Go pack while I settle the bill
93
00:14:23,663 --> 00:14:26,655
Let's not fool each other.
It's not my house, you're not my father
94
00:14:31,904 --> 00:14:34,305
Sorry, but I wanted to..
95
00:14:34,507 --> 00:14:39,206
You must at least stay at home
till the 40 days of mourning are over
96
00:14:42,148 --> 00:14:44,947
Why? Will you be there?
97
00:14:45,818 --> 00:14:46,546
What do you mean?
98
00:14:49,188 --> 00:14:50,553
I'll go back with you
99
00:14:52,325 --> 00:14:54,521
but after 40 days I'm on my own
100
00:14:56,529 --> 00:15:01,160
Fine, Salma. You can do as
you please
101
00:16:06,866 --> 00:16:09,130
- Strange!
- What is?
102
00:16:09,569 --> 00:16:11,333
Someone sent me a
Mohamed Mounir tape
103
00:16:13,072 --> 00:16:15,734
- What's strange about it?
- Someone I don't know
104
00:16:16,375 --> 00:16:18,173
No name on the envelope
105
00:16:18,744 --> 00:16:20,542
- Why?
- I don't know
106
00:16:21,581 --> 00:16:23,777
Perhaps I received it by mistake
107
00:16:24,984 --> 00:16:27,476
But you do like Mohamed Mounir
108
00:16:28,387 --> 00:16:30,048
Why didn't the sender write
his name?
109
00:16:31,290 --> 00:16:33,224
Perhaps he thought you might
know him
110
00:16:34,260 --> 00:16:35,455
Maybe he forgot to
111
00:16:38,231 --> 00:16:39,494
Maybe..
112
00:16:43,469 --> 00:16:44,527
Maybe
113
00:17:10,263 --> 00:17:13,563
Treacherous is the sea of life
114
00:17:13,766 --> 00:17:16,463
Where is it leading us?
115
00:17:16,769 --> 00:17:20,137
It bears on its waves
116
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:22,967
Much for us to see
117
00:17:23,442 --> 00:17:25,308
Days pass
118
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:29,246
Tomorrow will come for sure
119
00:17:29,815 --> 00:17:32,978
Dreams, we dream
120
00:17:33,185 --> 00:17:35,882
A new dream will come to us
121
00:17:39,525 --> 00:17:42,222
Life still holds much more
122
00:18:08,087 --> 00:18:09,248
Morning
123
00:18:10,723 --> 00:18:12,748
Madam Nagwa's things,
I told you about
124
00:18:15,294 --> 00:18:16,284
Is something wrong?
125
00:18:17,730 --> 00:18:20,324
Someone sent a letter asking
me to reassess the past
126
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:23,769
- Your happiest day is Tuesday
- Who?
127
00:18:24,537 --> 00:18:27,336
He or she didn't sign a name
128
00:18:28,174 --> 00:18:29,869
but that's my horoscope for today
129
00:18:30,409 --> 00:18:32,343
It must be someone who knows
you well
130
00:18:33,813 --> 00:18:34,803
Yes
131
00:18:48,527 --> 00:18:50,120
- Excuse me
-Yes?
132
00:18:50,363 --> 00:18:54,732
- Are you sure these are Mom's things?
- Yes, a wig and a brown lipstick
133
00:20:20,386 --> 00:20:21,979
What're you looking for?
134
00:20:24,790 --> 00:20:26,884
A woman named Yousriya
used to live here
135
00:20:27,493 --> 00:20:28,517
Yousriya what?
136
00:20:33,466 --> 00:20:34,763
What does she look like?
137
00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:40,096
She's dark, with black hair
138
00:20:40,439 --> 00:20:43,374
Could be Yousriya who married
recently on the next street
139
00:20:43,609 --> 00:20:45,338
She said dark, with black hair
140
00:20:45,845 --> 00:20:48,507
That one's fair with brown
hair and a mole here
141
00:20:48,981 --> 00:20:51,006
Then it's the one at the
health office
142
00:20:51,383 --> 00:20:55,980
- She had a friend called Doha
- Doha with the high heels
143
00:20:56,455 --> 00:20:58,389
Or the one married to
the grocer's son
144
00:20:59,191 --> 00:21:01,626
Didn't her sister go abroad
with her husband -
145
00:21:01,827 --> 00:21:04,228
- and came back divorced?
- Could be the other Doha
146
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,382
- Morning
- Morning
147
00:21:28,854 --> 00:21:31,084
Is there a typewriting office here?
148
00:21:34,426 --> 00:21:38,021
I've been here for an hour and still
the machines haven't rested?
149
00:21:38,297 --> 00:21:40,322
Have some manners and open up!
150
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,034
- Morning
- Morning
151
00:21:43,302 --> 00:21:45,327
Is this the office where
Miss Doha works?
152
00:21:45,538 --> 00:21:48,064
This is the cursed place.
They're in
153
00:21:48,374 --> 00:21:51,071
But they're giving the machines
a rest.. Open up!
154
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:54,575
Open up! Some people are asking
about you
155
00:21:58,150 --> 00:21:59,948
- Pardon us
- At last!
156
00:22:00,219 --> 00:22:02,483
Come in. I'll get some paper
and be right back
157
00:22:21,941 --> 00:22:24,103
-Is it?
-t is
158
00:22:26,812 --> 00:22:28,644
- Is it really her?
-Yes
159
00:22:28,881 --> 00:22:29,780
Salma!
160
00:22:36,288 --> 00:22:37,255
Not possible!
161
00:22:37,456 --> 00:22:40,187
Whenever they talked of film
stars I'd think of you
162
00:22:40,559 --> 00:22:44,086
It's you who looks like a star.
Why dressed in black?
163
00:22:44,930 --> 00:22:48,560
- Mom..
- I'm sorry. My condolences
164
00:22:49,802 --> 00:22:53,432
- Thank you
- What're you doing now? Working?
165
00:22:53,772 --> 00:22:55,365
You look like a lady
who doesn't need to work
166
00:22:56,508 --> 00:22:59,136
Where're your glasses?
167
00:23:00,112 --> 00:23:02,206
- Your eyes are different
- Lenses
168
00:23:02,481 --> 00:23:04,779
I didn't recognize you!
169
00:23:05,551 --> 00:23:07,952
You wouldn't recognize Yousriya
either
170
00:23:08,187 --> 00:23:09,882
She teaches at our old school now
171
00:23:10,089 --> 00:23:11,557
Miss.. Miss
172
00:23:15,661 --> 00:23:17,595
Get inside, gal
173
00:23:18,030 --> 00:23:19,020
What're you doing there?
174
00:23:22,401 --> 00:23:24,768
I see you, gal.. I see you
175
00:23:26,005 --> 00:23:28,201
Come here.. Wait, dear
176
00:23:28,407 --> 00:23:31,308
Wow! What nice shoes
177
00:23:32,111 --> 00:23:35,172
- Where did you get them?
- From Five Stars
178
00:23:35,481 --> 00:23:40,043
- The one next to the juice shop?
-Yes
179
00:23:40,619 --> 00:23:42,678
- Did you pick them out yourself?
- No, Mom did
180
00:23:42,888 --> 00:23:46,620
And did she say these were for
school or for a nightclub?
181
00:23:46,825 --> 00:23:49,988
Wait for me at the headmistress's
office
182
00:23:50,362 --> 00:23:54,629
- Have some mercy!
- Doha! How are you, dear?
183
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,326
Are you married? Hey, why is it
still in the right?
184
00:23:57,536 --> 00:24:00,870
Tarek bought the typing shop, switched
to computers and we're getting married
185
00:24:01,540 --> 00:24:02,974
Tell him to hurry up
186
00:24:03,709 --> 00:24:06,508
- Who's that pretty girl?
- I'll introduce you
187
00:24:07,079 --> 00:24:09,446
- You know such high-class folk?
- Hold on
188
00:24:10,649 --> 00:24:12,743
- Salma
- How do you do?
189
00:24:13,886 --> 00:24:14,785
Hello, Yousriya
190
00:24:18,223 --> 00:24:19,281
Salma!
191
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:27,221
How are you? It's been 14 years!
I thought you'd forgotten us
192
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:29,629
- Never
- Where're your glasses?
193
00:24:29,802 --> 00:24:32,066
- She's wearing lenses
- Lenses!
194
00:24:45,551 --> 00:24:49,419
What made you remember us after
all these years?
195
00:24:49,655 --> 00:24:51,054
I got Mohamed Mounir
196
00:24:51,323 --> 00:24:52,757
What? Mohamed Mounir?
197
00:24:52,925 --> 00:24:56,884
I mean a Mohamed Mounir tape.
Do you still listen to him?
198
00:24:57,096 --> 00:25:01,090
Sure. Every time I meet Doha we sing
"Windows" and remember you
199
00:25:01,467 --> 00:25:06,029
Windows.. windows.. the whole
world is windows
200
00:25:06,772 --> 00:25:10,140
- So you didn't send those things?
- What things?
201
00:25:11,910 --> 00:25:15,904
I got a sealed anonymous letter
202
00:25:16,548 --> 00:25:19,176
with a2 Mohamed Mounir tape inside.
I thought it was sent by mistake
203
00:25:19,885 --> 00:25:21,979
Then I got another anonymous letter
204
00:25:22,221 --> 00:25:25,156
with my horoscope inside..
I thought somebody's fooling around
205
00:25:25,858 --> 00:25:27,917
Then I received this picture
206
00:25:28,861 --> 00:25:31,262
I thought it was one of
Yousriya's practical jokes
207
00:25:31,964 --> 00:25:34,262
Show me.. Good Lord, look at us!
208
00:25:34,533 --> 00:25:37,025
See how skinny Salma is?
209
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:40,331
- And you are showy as always
- There's a circle around
210
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:42,667
That's right
211
00:25:43,208 --> 00:25:46,109
- Mr. Abdel Salam's in the circle, too
- Mr. Abdel Salam?
212
00:25:46,578 --> 00:25:48,046
Don't you remember him?
213
00:25:48,414 --> 00:25:51,145
The history teacher, Salma got
him fired?
214
00:25:51,417 --> 00:25:52,179
- That's him
- Me?
215
00:25:52,384 --> 00:25:56,446
It's not me who made sheep's eyes
at him every day
216
00:25:57,022 --> 00:25:58,387
I did that?
217
00:25:58,891 --> 00:26:02,657
- No, she has natural sheep's eyes
- Stop joking
218
00:26:02,961 --> 00:26:05,794
I had nothing to do with
that letter of Abdel Salam's
219
00:26:06,065 --> 00:26:09,933
Then why did you cry your eyes
out when he was transferred?
220
00:26:10,202 --> 00:26:12,261
- I felt sorry for him
- A pity!
221
00:26:12,604 --> 00:26:17,132
Mr. Abdel Salam, the letter..
What're you hinting at?
222
00:26:17,543 --> 00:26:19,602
Couldn't he have sent those things?
223
00:26:20,112 --> 00:26:24,572
Mr. Abdel Salam? How did he get
my address?
224
00:26:25,017 --> 00:26:26,644
- From me
- What?
225
00:26:27,086 --> 00:26:30,954
When you moved, he ran into me
once and asked for your address
226
00:26:31,123 --> 00:26:33,649
My address? Mr. Abdel Salam?
227
00:26:35,094 --> 00:26:36,118
That was years ago
228
00:26:36,628 --> 00:26:38,858
Abdel Salam hasn't changed a bit
229
00:26:39,064 --> 00:26:41,158
His sister works here and
always talks about him
230
00:26:41,366 --> 00:26:42,891
He's still a bachelor!
231
00:26:43,535 --> 00:26:46,869
You mean to say you didn't send
me those things?
232
00:26:47,106 --> 00:26:49,666
- Oh!
- What's with you, Yousriya?
233
00:26:50,542 --> 00:26:51,703
Listen..
234
00:26:53,512 --> 00:26:55,503
Speedy recovery, Gigi
235
00:26:55,948 --> 00:26:57,746
How can you stay alone in
this state?
236
00:26:58,217 --> 00:27:00,948
Abdel Salam was with me
but he left for work
237
00:27:03,388 --> 00:27:05,015
What can he do?
238
00:27:07,426 --> 00:27:11,260
I came the minute I heard.
I even brought my guests
239
00:27:11,563 --> 00:27:13,258
That's very kind, Yousriya
240
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:16,461
- But how did you know?
- How?
241
00:27:16,668 --> 00:27:19,035
It was quite obvious at school
today
242
00:27:20,139 --> 00:27:24,372
- I'll make you something to drink
- Don't you dare get up
243
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:26,702
- Your guests are mine
- But I'm no stranger
244
00:27:26,879 --> 00:27:28,176
- I forbid you to get up
- You're pregnant
245
00:27:28,413 --> 00:27:30,313
Don't upset me, now
246
00:27:30,549 --> 00:27:32,108
Come, Doha. Sit down, gal
247
00:27:32,284 --> 00:27:34,252
You sit here
248
00:27:35,854 --> 00:27:38,084
Make tea, I'll look for
something in his handwriting
249
00:27:48,100 --> 00:27:50,228
- Welcome
- Thank you
250
00:27:56,708 --> 00:27:59,803
- Find anything?
- They're all Jihan's notebooks
251
00:28:00,212 --> 00:28:03,546
Tell me, Gig, how's
Mr. Abdel Salam?
252
00:28:03,749 --> 00:28:05,547
- Fine
- Thank God
253
00:28:05,751 --> 00:28:08,083
- Thanks be to God
- Doesn't he intend to marry?
254
00:28:08,487 --> 00:28:10,012
Do you have a bride for him?
255
00:28:10,289 --> 00:28:12,087
I could easily find him one
256
00:28:14,092 --> 00:28:15,821
But it looks like he doesn't
want to marry
257
00:28:16,028 --> 00:28:18,497
I keep trying to convince him
258
00:28:22,100 --> 00:28:25,764
- Then what they say about him is true
- What do they say?
259
00:28:26,572 --> 00:28:28,700
You know, that old story
260
00:28:29,408 --> 00:28:32,605
He hates to bring that subject up
261
00:28:33,545 --> 00:28:37,106
That's my brother..
never opens up to anyone,
262
00:28:37,616 --> 00:28:39,448
keeps it all bottled up inside
263
00:28:40,419 --> 00:28:41,580
There he is
264
00:28:43,622 --> 00:28:45,215
We'd better be going
265
00:28:45,424 --> 00:28:48,394
- No, there's no hurry
- We have to go now, dear
266
00:28:48,694 --> 00:28:52,096
- Your tea..
- Ibrahim and the kids are expecting me
267
00:28:52,297 --> 00:28:54,163
Bye, Gigi. Bye, dear
268
00:28:54,733 --> 00:28:56,167
- Goodbye
- Goodbye
269
00:28:56,602 --> 00:28:57,364
Goodbye
270
00:28:58,670 --> 00:28:59,762
Hello, Salma
271
00:29:17,589 --> 00:29:19,557
How can a person stay in love -
272
00:29:19,725 --> 00:29:22,387
with someone he hasn't seen or heard
from in 14 years?
273
00:29:22,728 --> 00:29:25,720
Hopeless love is one of the highest
virtues
274
00:29:26,031 --> 00:29:27,499
I'm serious, Ibrahim
275
00:29:27,933 --> 00:29:31,460
Can a person decide to look for
someone he loved 14 years ago?
276
00:29:31,903 --> 00:29:33,496
It's possible, if he's got time
277
00:29:34,406 --> 00:29:36,966
Listen, Ibrahim.. If you got a letter
278
00:29:37,175 --> 00:29:40,236
a strange anonymous letter,
what would you do?
279
00:29:40,746 --> 00:29:44,341
- Read it
- Really! Why didn't I think of that?!
280
00:29:44,683 --> 00:29:48,085
And after you read it and didn't
get a word, which is normal for you?
281
00:29:48,820 --> 00:29:53,815
- I'd tear it up and throw it away
- What a brain.. A real brain!
282
00:29:54,026 --> 00:29:58,122
You're not in such a state for
nothing.. Oh, no!
283
00:29:58,830 --> 00:30:00,889
A curse on all letters!
284
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,859
- Are you old friends?
- Since we were schoolgirls
285
00:30:05,070 --> 00:30:08,802
Her mom divorced her dad
and married a rich doctor,
286
00:30:09,041 --> 00:30:12,306
- who took them to live in Maadi
- That's weird!
287
00:30:12,811 --> 00:30:16,111
Not at all. Many people's
lives can be upturned in an instant
288
00:30:20,786 --> 00:30:25,155
I mean it's weird she remembered
you after all these years
289
00:30:25,390 --> 00:30:26,221
Remembered us!
290
00:30:31,697 --> 00:30:33,392
You don't know how close we were
291
00:30:33,765 --> 00:30:35,824
At school they called us
the Comedy Trio
292
00:30:36,068 --> 00:30:40,301
- Guess what they also called us?
- That was years ago, love
293
00:30:40,806 --> 00:30:43,901
I know. I never imagined we'd reunite
294
00:30:51,550 --> 00:30:52,346
Thank you
295
00:30:54,453 --> 00:30:59,755
- You know? I was sure I'd see you again
- You were sure?
296
00:31:01,026 --> 00:31:03,791
After all these years -
297
00:31:04,229 --> 00:31:07,631
you couldn't just come back,
say hello and leave again
298
00:31:07,799 --> 00:31:10,894
- Hi, Mr. Abdel Salam
- Hello, Dalia; Hello, Madiha
299
00:31:13,271 --> 00:31:15,706
Yours was the first class
I set foot in
300
00:31:16,208 --> 00:31:18,336
I hadn't taught at a girls'
school before
301
00:31:19,745 --> 00:31:23,579
The minute I walked in
my eyes fell on you
302
00:31:24,750 --> 00:31:26,218
You looked at me and smiled..
303
00:31:29,521 --> 00:31:31,182
Know what the best thing
about you was?
304
00:31:31,423 --> 00:31:32,185
What?
305
00:31:32,391 --> 00:31:36,089
- Hi, Mr. Abdel Salam
- Hello, Dalia.. Imps!
306
00:31:44,169 --> 00:31:46,763
- Where were we?
- The best thing about me
307
00:31:47,038 --> 00:31:48,870
Yes, the best thing..
308
00:31:49,408 --> 00:31:51,502
You were quite an ordinary girl
309
00:31:52,844 --> 00:31:56,041
- Pardon?
- I felt you were a familiar face,
310
00:31:57,048 --> 00:31:58,948
that I'd known you for years
311
00:32:00,452 --> 00:32:02,011
You were easy to love at first sight
312
00:32:05,457 --> 00:32:08,017
- What is it?
- I must give a lesson there
313
00:32:08,226 --> 00:32:12,720
- Could you just..
- No. I missed the first lesson for you
314
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:15,298
- How will I see you again?
- We'll talk
315
00:32:15,500 --> 00:32:18,265
Just a minute.. my phone number
316
00:32:20,505 --> 00:32:21,529
A card, too!
317
00:32:38,290 --> 00:32:42,193
You could say Salma has a sort
of psychological problem
318
00:32:42,828 --> 00:32:45,525
She started suffering from it
when her mother died
319
00:32:46,465 --> 00:32:49,833
Poor thing. Salma's so delicate
and sweet
320
00:32:50,135 --> 00:32:54,003
She has a phobia which makes her
look for lost things
321
00:32:54,439 --> 00:32:55,736
Sometimes very old things
322
00:32:56,341 --> 00:32:59,072
- What can I do?
- The letter..
323
00:33:00,612 --> 00:33:01,579
What letter?
324
00:33:01,847 --> 00:33:05,340
The one you wrote her
when we were kids
325
00:33:06,184 --> 00:33:08,050
- What letter?
- It caused the scandal
326
00:33:08,253 --> 00:33:09,152
I remember, I remember
327
00:33:09,387 --> 00:33:12,015
Salma's phobia is driving
her to get the letter back
328
00:33:12,290 --> 00:33:14,588
She's in a terrible state
and we want to help
329
00:33:14,759 --> 00:33:16,124
Would you give us the letter?
330
00:33:17,362 --> 00:33:21,356
Where will I find it? It's been
almost 10 years
331
00:33:21,733 --> 00:33:23,667
- 14 years
- Alright, 14
332
00:33:24,102 --> 00:33:27,504
Well, let me ask you a favor,
333
00:33:27,706 --> 00:33:29,868
as she's in a terrible state
334
00:33:30,041 --> 00:33:31,167
I understand
335
00:33:31,376 --> 00:33:34,141
If you could just write her
another letter, any letter
336
00:33:34,346 --> 00:33:36,747
She never read the first one,
anyway
337
00:33:37,749 --> 00:33:40,013
- ..
- She's in a bad way
338
00:33:40,252 --> 00:33:41,742
We want to help her
339
00:33:42,621 --> 00:33:44,487
- Think he'll give it to us?
- Of course not
340
00:33:44,789 --> 00:33:46,848
- What if he does?
- Then he's an idiot
341
00:33:47,158 --> 00:33:48,990
Or he isn't the one sending
the letters
342
00:33:51,096 --> 00:33:54,623
- Why did you stop?
- That black car's following us
343
00:34:00,939 --> 00:34:02,566
Drive on and stop imagining things
344
00:34:10,582 --> 00:34:12,209
When I saw you last time
345
00:34:13,184 --> 00:34:15,414
my feelings for you reawakened
346
00:34:18,523 --> 00:34:20,184
But after I left you
347
00:34:22,127 --> 00:34:26,655
I realized you weren't the girl I'd
loved and waited for all these years
348
00:34:29,601 --> 00:34:32,935
- Pardon?
- We've been too rash, Salma
349
00:34:36,575 --> 00:34:39,010
- Rash?
- We're not suited for each other
350
00:34:39,978 --> 00:34:42,310
You called me to say..
Not suited how?
351
00:34:42,614 --> 00:34:46,812
I fell in love with Salma,
the pretty little girl of long ago
352
00:34:48,019 --> 00:34:51,649
Now you're.. mature and pretty
353
00:34:52,257 --> 00:34:55,386
- ..
- I know what a shock this must be
354
00:34:56,161 --> 00:34:59,495
- But I can't cheat you
- Cheat me!
355
00:35:00,265 --> 00:35:01,027
Here
356
00:35:03,101 --> 00:35:05,832
- What's this?
- Your friends said you wanted the letter
357
00:35:07,038 --> 00:35:08,802
I said, "where'll I find it"?
358
00:35:09,841 --> 00:35:12,139
Actually I had it all the while
in my desk drawer
359
00:35:13,511 --> 00:35:15,206
After they forced me to leave school
360
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:18,306
I'd watch you as you left school
361
00:35:19,751 --> 00:35:21,048
then I heard you'd moved
362
00:35:23,321 --> 00:35:25,756
I decided to send you a letter
363
00:35:27,492 --> 00:35:31,895
Then I realized it could be a chance
to rid myself of my feelings for you
364
00:35:33,932 --> 00:35:35,457
but I couldn't
365
00:35:36,534 --> 00:35:38,628
I looked for you in every
girl in my class
366
00:35:39,738 --> 00:35:43,072
I realized there was no cure for
what you'd done to me
367
00:35:47,646 --> 00:35:50,172
- You never sent any other letters?
- Letters?
368
00:35:51,349 --> 00:35:52,976
No, just that one
369
00:35:55,820 --> 00:35:57,083
Salma, don't become like me,
370
00:35:58,323 --> 00:36:01,020
don't cling to things in the past
that will never come back
371
00:36:02,060 --> 00:36:04,324
Your whole life's before you
372
00:36:14,839 --> 00:36:19,003
He tells me we're not suited!
That we were rash! How come?!
373
00:36:19,210 --> 00:36:20,905
What an idiot!
374
00:36:21,613 --> 00:36:25,572
Says he was shocked when he saw me.
Thought I'd still be in pigtails!
375
00:36:30,021 --> 00:36:31,989
He made me feel like I was
my own mother!
376
00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:34,488
That's why he never stays
at any school for long
377
00:36:34,826 --> 00:36:36,225
That's why he never married
378
00:36:36,428 --> 00:36:39,090
It's your fault, Yousriya;
you put it into my head
379
00:36:39,497 --> 00:36:40,658
Who would've believed -
380
00:36:40,865 --> 00:36:43,562
he'd keep silent all these years
then give himself away like that
381
00:36:45,303 --> 00:36:48,398
But ll think the other matter's
serious
382
00:36:49,607 --> 00:36:51,405
Someone's trying to tell you something
383
00:36:51,810 --> 00:36:53,471
Who could it be?
384
00:36:54,245 --> 00:36:57,442
- A friend, maybe
- 1 have no friends
385
00:36:57,949 --> 00:37:00,247
Not one friend in all of Maadi?
386
00:37:00,452 --> 00:37:03,046
- How about school, or college?
- No one
387
00:37:03,288 --> 00:37:06,053
You're in a pitiful state
388
00:37:06,391 --> 00:37:08,655
Take some time and look
around you
389
00:37:08,927 --> 00:37:10,656
There must be someone
you haven't noticed
390
00:37:11,162 --> 00:37:11,890
Tell me..
391
00:37:13,098 --> 00:37:15,066
Is that a dress or a slip?
392
00:37:25,744 --> 00:37:31,183
There are those who meet
by chance
393
00:37:32,183 --> 00:37:38,020
Those who beg Time never
to part them
394
00:37:40,425 --> 00:37:45,226
It picks them up and
scatters them
395
00:37:46,498 --> 00:37:49,263
- Why did they meet?
- Why?
396
00:37:50,168 --> 00:37:52,762
- Why did they part?
- Why?
397
00:38:01,946 --> 00:38:04,643
- Why did you do that?
- What did I do?
398
00:38:05,250 --> 00:38:07,048
You embarrassed him. We could've
sat with him awhile
399
00:38:07,385 --> 00:38:10,184
- I thought we'd be more comfortable
- Or feared we'd give you away
400
00:38:13,258 --> 00:38:16,523
Doha passed by at school, then
we met Salma and went..
401
00:38:16,728 --> 00:38:21,256
Bumming around! You went bumming
and forgot your daughter, right?
402
00:38:21,466 --> 00:38:23,867
Don't say "bumming".
It was the first time
403
00:38:24,202 --> 00:38:25,966
Why should I always pick
up the girl from school,
404
00:38:26,171 --> 00:38:29,106
tutor the kids, change the gas
cylinder, pay bills and fix the drains?
405
00:38:29,307 --> 00:38:32,004
What do you mean by that?
406
00:38:32,644 --> 00:38:35,204
What about me? Don't I do anything
around here -
407
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:37,404
except wear the cap and glasses?
408
00:38:37,782 --> 00:38:39,181
You didn't pick up the girl
on purpose!
409
00:38:39,384 --> 00:38:41,751
- Me?
- That's what your words imply,
410
00:38:42,187 --> 00:38:45,248
as it's your job to take her, pick
her up and "do everything"
411
00:38:45,456 --> 00:38:47,015
You left her on purpose to
punish me
412
00:38:47,225 --> 00:38:50,195
- It's OK
- Don't make me lose my temper
413
00:38:50,495 --> 00:38:51,394
Admit you did it to punish me
414
00:38:51,563 --> 00:38:53,554
- OK Ibrahim
- No! By God..
415
00:38:53,765 --> 00:38:57,895
Fine, lbrahim. I'm filth, trash.
I'm sorry.. satisfied?
416
00:38:58,136 --> 00:38:59,934
Shut the window, gal,
I'm undressed!
417
00:39:00,138 --> 00:39:03,699
Why're you yelling at the girl?
418
00:39:04,142 --> 00:39:05,337
Do you have something no other
woman has?
419
00:39:05,543 --> 00:39:09,138
- So you ogle at other women?
- Aren't we going to eat?
420
00:39:09,781 --> 00:39:11,715
I was going to make some food
421
00:39:11,883 --> 00:39:14,978
Still going to cook?
I'm hungry now
422
00:39:15,453 --> 00:39:17,421
Shall I go throw myself off
the roof?
423
00:39:17,722 --> 00:39:19,554
Will that fill my stomach?
424
00:39:21,226 --> 00:39:24,856
- Where're you going?
- To eat at my mother's
425
00:39:25,063 --> 00:39:27,623
Wait, Ibrahim.. Wait
426
00:39:28,333 --> 00:39:31,633
- Ibrahim, answer me
- What do you want?
427
00:39:31,803 --> 00:39:33,293
Bring some cheese on
the way home
428
00:39:52,523 --> 00:39:56,221
- What're you doing here?
- Tarek said you didn't go to work
429
00:39:56,427 --> 00:39:58,691
- Let's go up
- Let's go some place
430
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:01,096
I have work, and Tarek..
431
00:40:01,599 --> 00:40:03,226
Did you get another letter?
432
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:07,167
- I got flowers
- Does getting flowers upset you?
433
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:11,205
- Today's my birthday
- Oh..
434
00:40:19,484 --> 00:40:20,576
Happy birthday
435
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,845
- Thanks
- Let's go
436
00:40:25,623 --> 00:40:28,024
- What about Tarek?
- I'll say his mother came to see me
437
00:40:28,226 --> 00:40:30,217
What if he asks her and finds
out she didn't?
438
00:40:30,461 --> 00:40:31,986
- Who?
- His mother?
439
00:40:33,665 --> 00:40:36,362
Shut up and drive, you Maadi girl
440
00:40:39,137 --> 00:40:43,370
Wait.. Can you go backwards
so Tarek won't see us?
441
00:40:55,053 --> 00:40:58,990
Know how long it's been since
I've eaten koshari? 14 years
442
00:40:59,190 --> 00:41:01,522
If I ate a plate once a week
443
00:41:01,726 --> 00:41:04,855
that would make 14 times 48..
444
00:41:05,897 --> 00:41:07,865
672 plates to make up for it
445
00:41:08,700 --> 00:41:11,670
- And some more
- Don't they eat koshari in Maadi?
446
00:41:11,970 --> 00:41:15,270
When I'd tell Mom I longed for
koshari she'd say, forget it
447
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,967
Forget koshari, lentils and
beans. We're in Maadi now, not Shubra
448
00:41:19,243 --> 00:41:20,938
She used to say that a lot
449
00:41:21,279 --> 00:41:24,010
but I discovered that Maadi
residents eat koshari, too
450
00:41:24,215 --> 00:41:25,944
But not at Saeed's
451
00:41:26,751 --> 00:41:29,152
Three specials, Saeed,
with extra toppings
452
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:45,167
If only some coincidence would
change my life, too
453
00:41:45,737 --> 00:41:48,206
You woke up one day to find
yourself in Maadi
454
00:41:48,773 --> 00:41:52,539
It's not impossible that I could
wake up and find myself a star
455
00:41:53,544 --> 00:41:56,377
- Do you still think of acting?
- Why not?
456
00:41:56,614 --> 00:41:59,982
Souad Hosny was from Shubra,
so were Dalida and Youssef Shaaban
457
00:42:00,184 --> 00:42:03,347
- Youssef Wahbi was from Shubra
- He was from Shubra?
458
00:42:03,688 --> 00:42:05,986
- He was one of Shubra's beys
- You don't say!
459
00:42:06,324 --> 00:42:10,886
Not him personally but no doubt
his great-grandfather was
460
00:42:11,229 --> 00:42:12,788
- Leg-pulling!
- What?
461
00:42:12,964 --> 00:42:15,763
- She's pulling your leg
- What was the word?
462
00:42:16,067 --> 00:42:20,527
- Leg-pulling
- They don't say that in Maadi for sure
463
00:42:21,973 --> 00:42:23,304
- She said "Leg-pulling"?
-Yes
464
00:42:23,641 --> 00:42:25,735
Oh no! Such a base word!
465
00:42:27,545 --> 00:42:29,809
Bravo, you devil. Let's eat
466
00:42:31,382 --> 00:42:33,316
Tarek proposed many times
and I refused
467
00:42:33,785 --> 00:42:37,016
I liked him a lot but I'd ask
myself, what then?
468
00:42:37,221 --> 00:42:40,589
Spend my life as a typist..
Marry him and raise his kids?
469
00:42:40,758 --> 00:42:44,695
What's wrong with that? I've been
raising kids for 6 years and I'm great
470
00:42:45,430 --> 00:42:48,024
You used to tell me that
I'd marry 5 times
471
00:42:48,666 --> 00:42:51,465
You told me I'd be a belly dancer
when I grew up
472
00:42:52,503 --> 00:42:55,768
- By the way, what do you do?
- I'm a public relations manager
473
00:42:56,207 --> 00:43:00,440
- A real manager?
- When delegations visit our firm
474
00:43:03,047 --> 00:43:08,178
I arrange a nice program for them,
greet them at the airport with a smile
475
00:43:08,386 --> 00:43:12,823
- And I see them off with a smile
- Oh, that must be really hard work
476
00:43:18,830 --> 00:43:20,229
Catch it!
477
00:43:23,668 --> 00:43:26,330
What is this? Here, Salma.. Go
478
00:43:31,509 --> 00:43:37,107
A lovelier garden you won't find
479
00:43:37,482 --> 00:43:42,682
The banana trees have yielded,
the fruit on their branches shines
480
00:43:43,621 --> 00:43:46,784
Come on, Salma.. Come on!
481
00:43:48,426 --> 00:43:49,393
Like this
482
00:43:54,799 --> 00:44:00,101
To the ruler of Khartoum I
reported him one day
483
00:44:00,538 --> 00:44:05,738
He postponed my hearing until
judgment day
484
00:44:06,177 --> 00:44:11,547
A lovelier garden you won't find
485
00:44:12,083 --> 00:44:17,146
The banana trees have yielded,
the fruit on their branches shines
486
00:45:04,735 --> 00:45:06,464
Patience.. Is there no patience?!
487
00:45:11,175 --> 00:45:14,770
- May I ask a favor of you?
- Go ahead
488
00:45:14,979 --> 00:45:18,005
- I want to borrow a pair of stockings
- Pardon?
489
00:45:18,282 --> 00:45:22,583
A pair of nylons. The stores are
closed and I need them urgently
490
00:45:46,544 --> 00:45:49,241
These are black. I need beige
491
00:45:49,947 --> 00:45:53,406
- These are all I have
- Thanks, anyway
492
00:46:00,658 --> 00:46:03,992
Hisham Galal Ahmed..
Born in Cairo, 1972
493
00:46:04,562 --> 00:46:07,031
Graduated from the Faculty
of Engineering in '97
494
00:46:07,198 --> 00:46:09,667
Never worked in his field
for reasons unknown
495
00:46:10,334 --> 00:46:14,362
Was engaged to a college colleague
who left him, reason unknown
496
00:46:14,939 --> 00:46:18,603
His mother died 5 years ago
from unknown causes
497
00:46:20,044 --> 00:46:22,138
He lives alone, no one visits him
498
00:46:22,346 --> 00:46:24,041
I'm sure he's the one sending
the letters
499
00:46:24,382 --> 00:46:27,374
- For reasons unknown
- Shut up. Am I ever wrong?
500
00:46:28,653 --> 00:46:32,612
How can he have anything to do with
Mom, and what "past" does he mean?
501
00:46:34,325 --> 00:46:35,918
I'll make tea. Want some?
502
00:46:39,130 --> 00:46:43,328
The wig, the lipstick.. Why would
such personal things be with him?
503
00:46:45,670 --> 00:46:46,933
I'll make coffee. Want some?
504
00:46:51,809 --> 00:46:52,537
What's this?
505
00:46:56,047 --> 00:46:59,779
- Didn't you say he wasn't married?
-Yes
506
00:47:00,885 --> 00:47:05,618
- Then what's this?
- He's fishy. We must search his flat
507
00:47:30,581 --> 00:47:32,413
- Your car's been towed away
- What?
508
00:47:54,638 --> 00:47:58,404
I'm afraid to promise
then break my word
509
00:48:00,344 --> 00:48:01,140
Hear that?
510
00:48:03,481 --> 00:48:06,007
Afraid to promise then break my word
511
00:48:06,250 --> 00:48:09,550
To say it will be when it won't
512
00:48:11,122 --> 00:48:16,720
You could feel cold, my love
could cover you
513
00:48:17,094 --> 00:48:20,462
But not warm you
514
00:48:22,199 --> 00:48:23,223
Nobody touch anything
515
00:48:24,602 --> 00:48:25,763
The House of Ghosts!
516
00:48:50,694 --> 00:48:51,422
What's this?
517
00:49:18,656 --> 00:49:21,057
- Looking for something?
- What's this?
518
00:49:21,258 --> 00:49:22,020
I'm asking you
519
00:49:23,527 --> 00:49:26,394
I'll explain.. I'll tell you
520
00:49:27,598 --> 00:49:30,966
Yousriya said it's you who's
been sending me letters
521
00:49:31,168 --> 00:49:34,138
- Me?
- Yes. I get a lot of letters,
522
00:49:34,338 --> 00:49:36,500
lots of stuff and Mohamed Mounir
tapes
523
00:49:37,208 --> 00:49:40,940
Yousriya said you were.. fishy
524
00:49:41,278 --> 00:49:45,306
She said you were a strange person,
a fishy person
525
00:49:45,483 --> 00:49:48,885
You are really fishy.. You listen
to Mohamed Mounir
526
00:49:49,086 --> 00:49:50,451
- So?
- We saw what's inside
527
00:49:50,821 --> 00:49:55,258
- So what?
- The flat's.. what do you do?
528
00:49:55,893 --> 00:49:58,328
I work with puppets
529
00:50:01,198 --> 00:50:03,462
Yousriya doesn't know
you're a puppet guy
530
00:50:05,202 --> 00:50:06,966
Tell her I'm a puppet guy
531
00:50:09,373 --> 00:50:11,967
Wait.. Yousriya and Doha were..
532
00:50:14,612 --> 00:50:18,446
- Want a glass of water?
- I want to go home
533
00:50:19,216 --> 00:50:20,240
Go ahead
534
00:50:23,220 --> 00:50:27,248
- Can I go home this way?
- Go ahead
535
00:50:38,502 --> 00:50:39,298
What?
536
00:50:44,108 --> 00:50:45,337
We jumped to conclusions
537
00:50:45,643 --> 00:50:48,635
- He's a puppet guy
- And the Mounir tapes?
538
00:50:48,846 --> 00:50:50,644
That's not proof.
Everybody listens to him
539
00:50:50,981 --> 00:50:54,007
He's a normal guy. He borrowed her
Mom's things for his puppets
540
00:50:54,218 --> 00:50:57,745
- Doha's right.. Enough, Yousriya
- I have an idea
541
00:50:58,022 --> 00:51:01,253
Enough! My head's going to explode
542
00:51:01,492 --> 00:51:03,051
I can't concentrate on anything
anymore
543
00:51:03,260 --> 00:51:05,319
As if you had such a busy life!
544
00:51:06,163 --> 00:51:08,655
- Get out, Yousriya
- Get out, Yousriya
545
00:51:09,733 --> 00:51:13,533
- Get out or I'll call Ibrahim
- Really? Fine
546
00:51:28,118 --> 00:51:31,850
- Yousriya.. wait
-Yes?
547
00:51:32,723 --> 00:51:35,124
- Come here..
-Yes?
548
00:51:37,561 --> 00:51:39,029
There's the car that's been
following me
549
00:51:40,197 --> 00:51:41,961
- Are you sure?
-Yes
550
00:51:42,766 --> 00:51:44,131
Wait for me here
551
00:51:55,079 --> 00:51:56,774
- Good evening
- Good evening
552
00:51:56,981 --> 00:51:59,211
- Waiting for someone?
- Pardon?
553
00:51:59,783 --> 00:52:04,084
Please answer quietly and don't
make trouble. Waiting for someone?
554
00:52:04,288 --> 00:52:07,087
- Yes. Got a problem?
- Identification, please
555
00:52:08,125 --> 00:52:08,853
What?
556
00:52:09,326 --> 00:52:11,590
You look respectable, not one
for trouble
557
00:52:12,129 --> 00:52:15,531
Park to the side so we can have
a word
558
00:52:15,766 --> 00:52:18,292
You're a lunatic
559
00:52:18,502 --> 00:52:21,096
- What do you want?
- What? Lunatic?!
560
00:52:21,372 --> 00:52:22,931
Why're you talking to me like that?
561
00:52:23,140 --> 00:52:25,404
Wait, Yousriya.
Do you know me?
562
00:52:26,243 --> 00:52:28,439
A ward of lunatics!
Do you have something to say, too?
563
00:52:28,679 --> 00:52:31,341
Answer the lady. Do you know her?
564
00:52:31,615 --> 00:52:32,741
A whole loony bin!
565
00:52:34,718 --> 00:52:37,415
Come here; you can't back
out now
566
00:52:37,655 --> 00:52:40,852
- What do you want?
- Answer our questions or by God..
567
00:52:41,058 --> 00:52:44,790
I've been polite seeing you're
a lady.. But not much of a lady
568
00:52:44,962 --> 00:52:47,124
Not much of a lady!
569
00:52:47,331 --> 00:52:50,528
I'm Yousriya, every house on
this street owes me a favor
570
00:52:50,734 --> 00:52:53,066
and those favors will be
returned on you today
571
00:52:53,537 --> 00:52:55,596
- What's going on?
- What is it, Yousriya?
572
00:52:55,906 --> 00:52:57,169
Yousriya's fighting
573
00:53:05,282 --> 00:53:06,408
Come here..
574
00:53:09,720 --> 00:53:12,052
Bring him to me
575
00:53:13,691 --> 00:53:16,592
Move, Salma.. Take this!
576
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,068
If my dad saw me smoking...!
577
00:53:32,376 --> 00:53:36,711
Ibrahim wanted me to smoke with him
but I refused till he quit
578
00:53:37,614 --> 00:53:41,050
I used to smoke behind Mom's back
579
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,415
When I was a kid I'd imagine
580
00:53:46,890 --> 00:53:48,858
that a camera was filming
my every move
581
00:53:50,060 --> 00:53:54,293
Really, even at work..
like a real movie star
582
00:53:55,365 --> 00:53:58,733
Wake up! That movie stuff will
drive you nuts
583
00:54:00,104 --> 00:54:02,505
Movies are everything.
Tell me..
584
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,002
Where else can you find a smile
like Rushdi Abaza's?
585
00:54:05,976 --> 00:54:08,775
Omar Sharif's kiss.. who kisses
his wife like that?
586
00:54:09,346 --> 00:54:12,907
- Nobody kisses his wife these days
- Really?
587
00:54:13,584 --> 00:54:15,814
Don't you and Ibrahim kiss?
588
00:54:17,688 --> 00:54:20,783
- Know what's more important than kissing?
- What?
589
00:54:21,291 --> 00:54:23,919
- Hugging
- Hugging?
590
00:54:24,361 --> 00:54:27,956
Yes. When a woman's given
areal hug,
591
00:54:29,299 --> 00:54:31,028
she feels like a real woman
592
00:54:31,869 --> 00:54:34,702
A simple gesture.. but it's everything
593
00:54:35,806 --> 00:54:39,902
That's why women become cold
after marriage. Why?
594
00:54:40,410 --> 00:54:44,142
- Why, professor?
- Because husbands can't hug
595
00:54:46,016 --> 00:54:51,386
Good Lord! And I wanted to get
married especially to get hugged
596
00:54:51,722 --> 00:54:54,714
Are you saying you've never
been hugged before?
597
00:54:55,058 --> 00:54:56,856
Of course not. Are you stupid?
598
00:54:57,094 --> 00:54:58,425
- Never?
- Never.. hey!
599
00:55:00,798 --> 00:55:03,165
Hear that, Yousriya!
600
00:55:06,470 --> 00:55:07,733
Are you giving birth?
601
00:55:12,976 --> 00:55:14,341
You mean I have a complex?
602
00:55:18,982 --> 00:55:23,681
Do I have a complex?
Say I, I won't get upset
603
00:55:23,987 --> 00:55:25,751
- You have a complex
- Yes. Why lie?
604
00:55:29,426 --> 00:55:34,057
A complex.. I have a complex?
605
00:55:35,766 --> 00:55:38,030
-Yes
- Let me tell you..
606
00:55:39,703 --> 00:55:41,364
Some gorgeous guys from Maadi -
607
00:55:43,907 --> 00:55:45,875
wanted to marry me
608
00:55:47,611 --> 00:55:50,706
But when I thought of any of them
609
00:55:52,416 --> 00:55:56,375
and imagine I'm undressing before him..
610
00:55:57,321 --> 00:56:01,189
I pull back and lose interest
in him
611
00:56:01,758 --> 00:56:04,455
Why, dear? The dark hides a lot
of faults
612
00:56:11,802 --> 00:56:15,067
I fear to promise you and
break my word
613
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,504
Tell you it will be when it won't
614
00:56:20,177 --> 00:56:21,201
What's so funny?
615
00:56:22,579 --> 00:56:24,240
Careful, you'll go into labor
616
00:56:32,723 --> 00:56:36,250
- What?
- What did you put in this cigarette?
617
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:41,561
- I don't know, I found it here
- He's telling her it "won't be"
618
00:56:44,902 --> 00:56:46,427
You're ill-bred
619
00:56:47,404 --> 00:56:51,170
Stop that, girls.
This is a respectable cell
620
00:56:51,408 --> 00:56:53,103
Right, a respectable cell
621
00:56:53,377 --> 00:56:56,540
Why's the cell empty?
Does this precinct have no customers?
622
00:56:57,047 --> 00:56:58,139
Get in
623
00:57:00,784 --> 00:57:01,808
Don't push
624
00:57:06,323 --> 00:57:07,586
Wow!
625
00:57:07,758 --> 00:57:08,520
Good evening
626
00:57:10,060 --> 00:57:13,291
It's a mistake. He's a diplomat
visiting relatives
627
00:57:13,797 --> 00:57:17,324
- No harm done. Thank you
- You're welcome, doctor
628
00:57:27,945 --> 00:57:30,642
- Let's have dinner
- I'm going home
629
00:57:33,583 --> 00:57:37,042
- Come see my new car at least
- I want to go to bed
630
00:57:37,321 --> 00:57:39,016
Couldn't you dress the girls
in something better?
631
00:57:39,256 --> 00:57:42,590
Are we picking you up from
the National Women's Council?
632
00:57:44,494 --> 00:57:46,326
It's the police station!
633
00:57:46,563 --> 00:57:49,055
So? A rude man harassed us,
we taught him a lesson
634
00:57:53,003 --> 00:57:54,767
What exactly do you want?
635
00:57:55,405 --> 00:57:57,737
Since you took up with those
girls you've changed
636
00:57:58,241 --> 00:58:00,642
I need to know what's going on
637
00:58:01,078 --> 00:58:04,605
You neglect the kids, the house
638
00:58:05,148 --> 00:58:07,242
even your mom asks me
where you go
639
00:58:07,851 --> 00:58:12,186
What's happened to you?
Tell me what you want
640
00:58:12,422 --> 00:58:13,787
Speak up
641
00:58:14,958 --> 00:58:17,984
- I want flowers, Ibrahim
- What?
642
00:58:18,495 --> 00:58:21,931
Didn't you hear me?
I long for flowers
643
00:58:22,699 --> 00:58:24,098
Don't say a bouquet costs 20 pounds,
644
00:58:24,301 --> 00:58:27,566
and that half a kilo of Kebabs
is cheaper and more romantic
645
00:58:30,707 --> 00:58:32,732
Is that the new tone your
friends taught you?
646
00:58:33,143 --> 00:58:36,113
Did the Maadi girl put it into your
head you couldn't live without flowers?
647
00:58:36,380 --> 00:58:37,814
They've nothing to do with this
648
00:58:38,015 --> 00:58:41,007
I've always longed for flowers
but you never thought of that
649
00:58:41,218 --> 00:58:44,813
Not on our anniversary, Valentine's day,
my birthday or even the 6th of October
650
00:58:45,022 --> 00:58:47,855
Aren't I like other women
and you like other men?
651
00:58:48,058 --> 00:58:51,323
Did they say their men bought
them flowers?
652
00:58:51,628 --> 00:58:55,826
What else? What else do their men
do that I can't?
653
00:58:56,066 --> 00:58:57,693
My friends have nothing to do
with this
654
00:58:58,335 --> 00:59:00,326
I won't wait till they
destroy our marriage
655
00:59:00,771 --> 00:59:04,401
Call that Maadi girl right now,
say you don't want to know her
656
00:59:04,641 --> 00:59:08,635
- They've nothing to do with this
- Call her or I'll divorce you
657
00:59:10,981 --> 00:59:14,849
- Salma..
- This is Ibrahim, Yousriya's husband
658
00:59:15,619 --> 00:59:18,418
Yousriya's had enough of you
659
00:59:18,722 --> 00:59:21,419
She's a married woman with
responsibilities
660
00:59:21,625 --> 00:59:24,390
Find another marriage to destroy
661
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,810
A woman used to sit at this table
662
00:59:40,077 --> 00:59:43,103
If it was taken she'd stand and
wait till it was free
663
00:59:45,982 --> 00:59:50,783
At this table an old man used to sit.
He'd order Lasagne every day
664
00:59:51,488 --> 00:59:55,322
then he'd have coffee and read
an Agatha Christy novel
665
00:59:55,926 --> 00:59:59,658
He'd order coffee and read.
Sometimes he'd fall asleep and snore
666
01:00:01,998 --> 01:00:04,490
I talk too much, right?
667
01:00:04,768 --> 01:00:08,295
I'm just glad to have someone
eating with me
668
01:00:08,538 --> 01:00:10,063
Doesn't Salma eat with you?
669
01:00:12,542 --> 01:00:14,032
Salma's changed
670
01:00:15,011 --> 01:00:19,141
She scares me. When I try to
talk to her -
671
01:00:19,883 --> 01:00:21,681
the words stick in my throat
672
01:00:22,719 --> 01:00:24,278
Why don't you talk?
673
01:00:24,488 --> 01:00:28,789
- What should I say?
- Tell me about yourself
674
01:00:29,092 --> 01:00:33,051
It's your chance, as I know
nothing about you.. Go ahead
675
01:00:34,464 --> 01:00:36,694
I'm Doha Abdel Kerim,
Height 167 cm
676
01:00:36,900 --> 01:00:39,164
Weight, 60 kilos. I want to
be an actress
677
01:00:40,137 --> 01:00:42,538
- Are you serious?
-Yes, I swear
678
01:00:43,406 --> 01:00:45,773
- Why don't you act?
- I tried
679
01:00:46,510 --> 01:00:48,239
I always got unsuitable parts
680
01:00:48,845 --> 01:00:51,177
- What do you mean?
- Small parts
681
01:00:51,982 --> 01:00:52,847
Very small?
682
01:00:55,485 --> 01:00:57,078
One or two scenes..
683
01:00:59,256 --> 01:01:01,725
- You were an extra?
- A silent one
684
01:01:08,532 --> 01:01:10,432
Any progress with Ibrahim?
685
01:01:10,767 --> 01:01:14,533
He's flipped. When he leaves he
locks me in and disconnects the phone
686
01:01:14,838 --> 01:01:18,672
- How did you manage to come?
- No problem, I manage
687
01:01:19,009 --> 01:01:21,000
I didn't call about Ibrahim
688
01:01:21,378 --> 01:01:24,245
but to tell you I know who's
sending the letters
689
01:01:24,748 --> 01:01:26,375
- Not again!
- Humour me
690
01:01:26,583 --> 01:01:29,609
The usual, Saeed, but be quick
691
01:01:29,819 --> 01:01:32,254
Now tell me.. where's your dad?
692
01:01:32,789 --> 01:01:34,621
He divorced Mom a long time ago
693
01:01:35,325 --> 01:01:36,383
I've heard nothing of him since
694
01:01:36,660 --> 01:01:40,528
- Your mom never spoke of him?
- She rid the house of all his photos
695
01:01:40,797 --> 01:01:41,821
Because of your stepfather?
696
01:01:41,998 --> 01:01:46,231
Uncle Rabie! After Mom died
I realized -
697
01:01:47,037 --> 01:01:48,801
I didn't know him at all
698
01:01:49,139 --> 01:01:50,664
After all those years together?
699
01:01:51,007 --> 01:01:54,341
Together.. I don't remember
that we ever had a real talk
700
01:01:54,878 --> 01:01:58,143
We never fought, like fathers
and daughters do
701
01:02:00,383 --> 01:02:03,353
Of course Mom's presence
prevented that
702
01:02:03,687 --> 01:02:05,086
But if it had..
703
01:02:05,922 --> 01:02:09,586
I'd have felt there was something
real about him
704
01:02:11,027 --> 01:02:13,553
Maybe your dad learned your Mom
died and wants you back
705
01:02:13,763 --> 01:02:16,232
- Why use this strange method?
- If you met him you'd know
706
01:02:16,533 --> 01:02:18,968
- How will I find him?
- We'll look for his address
707
01:02:19,202 --> 01:02:22,069
I won't look. I'm going abroad
708
01:02:23,206 --> 01:02:24,469
Going abroad? Where?
709
01:02:24,908 --> 01:02:26,706
I'll be transferred to
the New York branch
710
01:02:27,143 --> 01:02:28,508
Why?
711
01:02:28,812 --> 01:02:31,144
- Why should I stay here?
- Shame on you, Salma
712
01:02:31,948 --> 01:02:35,441
At first I was upset that you
looked us up because of a letter
713
01:02:36,052 --> 01:02:37,178
then decided it didn't matter,
714
01:02:37,654 --> 01:02:39,952
as long as we're back together,
and now you're leaving!
715
01:02:40,457 --> 01:02:42,789
You're married, with a home and kids
716
01:02:43,059 --> 01:02:46,029
Doha's getting married too.
For whom shall I stay?
717
01:02:46,229 --> 01:02:49,096
That's no problem,
we'll find you a husband
718
01:02:49,532 --> 01:02:52,160
If there are no men in Maadi
we'll look somewhere else..
719
01:02:52,369 --> 01:02:54,394
Ramsis, Helwan, Heliopolis..
no problem
720
01:02:54,604 --> 01:02:57,471
Where shall I say I'm from?
Maadi or Shubra?
721
01:02:58,241 --> 01:03:00,801
- Who will he ask for my hand?
- Your father
722
01:03:01,478 --> 01:03:02,639
And who's that?
723
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:06,580
Stop.. it's crap, I won't reshoot
724
01:03:07,250 --> 01:03:09,582
We have 17 out of 18 guaranteed
725
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:11,082
Okay
726
01:03:13,323 --> 01:03:14,688
The cheese commercial girl
727
01:03:16,126 --> 01:03:17,594
Right, she's a real cheese
728
01:03:23,099 --> 01:03:26,660
- Khairy..
- Rabie!
729
01:03:26,836 --> 01:03:28,770
- I've missed you
- How are you?
730
01:03:28,972 --> 01:03:31,873
For years I've begged you
to visit me on location..
731
01:03:33,143 --> 01:03:35,111
- A drink?
- Just a minute
732
01:03:35,645 --> 01:03:37,636
- Come here, Doha
- Really, man..
733
01:03:39,182 --> 01:03:40,172
Come here, Doha
734
01:03:41,851 --> 01:03:44,650
Doha's a fan of all your films
735
01:03:44,921 --> 01:03:47,583
She didn't believe that we're
friends.. there he is
736
01:03:47,757 --> 01:03:49,316
What do you like about my films?
737
01:03:50,860 --> 01:03:53,295
All your films are lovely..
really really lovely
738
01:03:53,496 --> 01:03:57,228
Doha loves acting and wants
to become an actress
739
01:03:58,501 --> 01:04:01,527
Certainly. I'll give her a screen test
740
01:04:01,738 --> 01:04:03,069
Come.. excuse me
741
01:04:04,174 --> 01:04:06,268
What's going on, people?
742
01:04:12,148 --> 01:04:13,843
Tarel, I want to talk to you
743
01:04:16,453 --> 01:04:19,445
about something that's been on
my mind
744
01:04:21,758 --> 01:04:24,455
- Tell me, Doha
- But don't get upset
745
01:04:24,894 --> 01:04:27,920
- I won't
- It's something you've known about
746
01:04:28,698 --> 01:04:31,724
- Have done, Doha
-I want to act
747
01:04:38,608 --> 01:04:40,576
- Well?
- Act, then
748
01:04:40,777 --> 01:04:42,768
- You're not upset?
- No
749
01:04:44,347 --> 01:04:46,873
I brought you two reams
of top quality paper
750
01:04:47,684 --> 01:04:51,279
You're upset..
yes, you're upset
751
01:04:51,688 --> 01:04:52,849
You didn't hear how you said it
752
01:04:53,056 --> 01:04:56,026
Should I dance with joy while
I'm saying it? What do you want?
753
01:04:56,226 --> 01:04:59,787
People.. It's I who wants!
I want some attention!
754
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:18,806
Looking for something?
755
01:05:21,885 --> 01:05:23,876
- 1 think I left it here
- What?
756
01:05:26,423 --> 01:05:29,290
- No, I went to the kitchen
- Is this it?
757
01:05:34,731 --> 01:05:38,759
- Are you traveling?
- Yes. A short business trip
758
01:05:39,302 --> 01:05:40,360
Why didn't you tell me?
759
01:05:42,305 --> 01:05:43,966
Wanted to surprise me?
760
01:05:44,407 --> 01:05:47,377
Not at all. I won't be leaving
for some time
761
01:05:47,877 --> 01:05:49,777
- When?
- Not before two weeks
762
01:05:50,346 --> 01:05:53,043
Yes, it's too early
763
01:05:55,018 --> 01:05:57,646
Better to call me from the airport
764
01:05:58,988 --> 01:06:00,615
rather than tell me too early
765
01:06:24,147 --> 01:06:26,309
Look.. what do you think of this?
766
01:06:27,383 --> 01:06:32,082
- Isn't it too plain?
- Plain? It's Pierre Cardin
767
01:06:40,997 --> 01:06:44,058
Do I look high-class?
I feel it's too plain
768
01:06:44,567 --> 01:06:47,059
- Plain!
- Yes. Got anything else?
769
01:06:47,337 --> 01:06:49,328
They're 7 scenes. I need an outfit
for each one
770
01:06:50,206 --> 01:06:51,605
Try this on
771
01:07:00,183 --> 01:07:01,810
Do I look high-class?
772
01:07:05,855 --> 01:07:09,723
- Will I do?
- At what?
773
01:07:10,093 --> 01:07:11,891
Playing a high-class lady
in 7 scenes
774
01:07:12,128 --> 01:07:15,154
- Really? Congratulations
- Thanks
775
01:07:15,665 --> 01:07:17,656
Your clinic's lovely
776
01:07:17,867 --> 01:07:20,302
If I were a kid I'd get sick
on purpose just to come here
777
01:07:20,703 --> 01:07:22,535
Nice picture. Who is it?
778
01:07:24,841 --> 01:07:29,369
Forget all this. Where will we
celebrate this great occasion?
779
01:07:29,846 --> 01:07:31,575
I can't. I'm shooting in two hours
780
01:07:31,781 --> 01:07:35,809
Then we have two hours to celebrate
781
01:07:36,019 --> 01:07:37,748
Then I must drive you
782
01:07:38,488 --> 01:07:41,480
I can't let such a well-dressed
lady -
783
01:07:42,025 --> 01:07:44,221
use public transport
784
01:07:54,103 --> 01:07:58,506
- Do you get off work so early?
- I took the day off
785
01:07:59,008 --> 01:08:03,969
- Is something wrong?
- No; it's to finalize my travel papers
786
01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:05,179
What?
787
01:08:06,082 --> 01:08:10,019
- You're going abroad?
-Yes
788
01:08:12,121 --> 01:08:15,056
Still don't know who's sending
you the letters?
789
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:20,021
No.. nothing
790
01:08:22,265 --> 01:08:23,562
-Yes?
791
01:08:27,637 --> 01:08:31,073
- How are your puppets?
- Fine
792
01:08:33,109 --> 01:08:38,138
- Well.. give them my regards
- 1 will
793
01:08:46,923 --> 01:08:52,054
- You were going downstairs
- That's right
794
01:09:21,290 --> 01:09:22,018
Yousriya..
795
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:26,695
You were right. It's Dad who's
sending the letters
796
01:09:26,896 --> 01:09:29,160
Here's my picture when I was little
797
01:09:30,733 --> 01:09:33,168
"Best Times" is printed on it,
my dad's studio
798
01:09:33,903 --> 01:09:35,997
See? I'm never wrong
799
01:09:36,205 --> 01:09:38,697
- Yousriya..
- Go now and leave it to me
800
01:09:45,081 --> 01:09:46,981
What do you want to say?
801
01:09:48,685 --> 01:09:52,246
That's the director's opinion, right?
He said I can't act
802
01:09:53,956 --> 01:09:57,654
- Not exactly..
- Don't worry I won't go kill myself
803
01:09:58,327 --> 01:10:00,853
His saying that doesn't mean
I can't act
804
01:10:01,864 --> 01:10:04,526
I can act, and I'm good too
805
01:10:06,169 --> 01:10:07,193
Shall I act for you?
806
01:10:09,172 --> 01:10:10,571
I'll act like I'm happy
807
01:10:15,545 --> 01:10:18,310
Now I'm upset
808
01:10:28,524 --> 01:10:32,017
Please, don't cry
809
01:10:35,698 --> 01:10:36,665
For my sake
810
01:10:41,571 --> 01:10:43,130
See? I can act
811
01:10:47,543 --> 01:10:50,012
I found Rabie's house in
a terrible state
812
01:10:50,213 --> 01:10:53,342
It's a mess. I'll have to stay
the night
813
01:11:04,427 --> 01:11:06,589
- Got a phone directory?
- Of course
814
01:11:07,497 --> 01:11:10,432
- May 1?7
- Come In
815
01:11:20,042 --> 01:11:23,808
Sarhan doesn't want to shake
hands but read your palm
816
01:11:27,049 --> 01:11:31,384
Something's got you confused.
You spend sleepless nights at your window
817
01:11:35,858 --> 01:11:39,192
He who loves you is someone
close to you
818
01:11:41,130 --> 01:11:45,158
That's tacky.. next he'll tell
you to cross your palm with a coin
819
01:11:48,004 --> 01:11:49,472
What do puppets have to do with
engineering?
820
01:11:50,173 --> 01:11:51,402
- Engineering?
-Yes
821
01:11:51,607 --> 01:11:54,577
So it's not just me who knows
a lot about you
822
01:11:54,777 --> 01:11:56,836
What do you know about me?
823
01:11:58,014 --> 01:12:01,780
We're neighbors and Aunt Nagwa
was a good friend of Mom's
824
01:12:01,984 --> 01:12:03,952
- She'd always talk about you
- What did she say?
825
01:12:04,287 --> 01:12:07,416
She said you were quiet
and kept to yourself a lot
826
01:12:07,657 --> 01:12:09,022
that you didn't used to be that way
827
01:12:09,659 --> 01:12:13,186
Mom would say I'd gone nuts,
that I was mad for puppets
828
01:12:13,462 --> 01:12:15,556
after being the most sensible
guy in the family
829
01:12:15,798 --> 01:12:17,095
Are you really an engineer?
830
01:12:18,367 --> 01:12:20,392
I studied at the Faculty of Engineering
831
01:12:20,803 --> 01:12:24,296
A friend of mine had a father
who was a great puppet designer
832
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:26,165
He taught me to love puppets
833
01:12:26,375 --> 01:12:29,037
And thanks to him I got my
degree in 8 years
834
01:12:29,979 --> 01:12:32,744
I graduated knowing I wasn't
an engineer..
835
01:12:32,949 --> 01:12:34,348
I was a puppeteer
836
01:12:35,318 --> 01:12:37,844
I don't think it was an easy decision
837
01:12:38,521 --> 01:12:40,080
It was harder for those around me
838
01:12:40,523 --> 01:12:43,652
I'm not the best puppeteer in the
country and maybe never will be
839
01:12:45,261 --> 01:12:47,093
- Happy with your decision?
-Very
840
01:12:49,699 --> 01:12:52,066
More important than making a choice
841
01:12:52,535 --> 01:12:54,731
is finding happiness in the choice
you make
842
01:13:00,676 --> 01:13:03,168
- What's this?
- The phone directory
843
01:13:04,614 --> 01:13:07,606
Oh.. right
844
01:13:18,261 --> 01:13:20,093
Best Times Photo Studio
845
01:13:23,199 --> 01:13:25,224
Best Times Photo Studio
846
01:13:47,623 --> 01:13:49,614
Best Times Photo Studio
847
01:14:12,481 --> 01:14:15,542
- You're not like people said you are
- What people?
848
01:14:16,452 --> 01:14:17,783
People in our building
849
01:14:18,421 --> 01:14:19,582
What do they say?
850
01:14:20,089 --> 01:14:24,617
- That you're arrogant and untalkative
- What do you say?
851
01:14:26,929 --> 01:14:29,830
I longed for something to happen
to make you talk to me
852
01:14:39,375 --> 01:14:42,140
Where've you been?
Your mom said you'd been out all day
853
01:14:42,445 --> 01:14:43,606
I wasn't feeling well
854
01:14:44,480 --> 01:14:46,448
So you went out!
855
01:14:47,583 --> 01:14:49,210
The house is like a loony bin
856
01:14:49,919 --> 01:14:51,853
They neither sit with me or
leave me in peace
857
01:14:52,054 --> 01:14:56,252
Sure.. you're an artist now
and need your space
858
01:14:56,492 --> 01:14:58,654
- in order to concentrate
- Don't make fun of me
859
01:14:58,861 --> 01:15:01,228
I'm not. What's new in that?
860
01:15:01,797 --> 01:15:04,698
You fight with your folks ten
times a day and make up
861
01:15:06,168 --> 01:15:08,694
- By the way, you're just like them
- What?
862
01:15:08,904 --> 01:15:12,135
You think I'm a silly child and
try to humour me
863
01:15:12,341 --> 01:15:14,810
- What are you saying?
- Even if it's nonsense you must hear me
864
01:15:15,144 --> 01:15:16,942
What you call my fantasy is
part of me
865
01:15:17,213 --> 01:15:19,580
If you think it's silly then
I mean nothing to you
866
01:15:23,519 --> 01:15:24,680
I got the ink
867
01:15:30,259 --> 01:15:31,624
This is our old house
868
01:15:33,062 --> 01:15:34,723
I lived here with Mom and Dad
869
01:15:40,236 --> 01:15:43,262
Here I spent the best days
of my life
870
01:15:44,607 --> 01:15:46,507
Those days will never come back
871
01:15:47,343 --> 01:15:49,710
When we live a happy moment
and it passes
872
01:15:50,646 --> 01:15:54,139
we think it's the best in
our lives and can never be equalled
873
01:15:55,217 --> 01:15:56,548
That's not true
874
01:15:57,853 --> 01:16:00,322
For example..
this moment right now
875
01:16:01,023 --> 01:16:03,048
In 20 years you'll remember it
876
01:16:03,659 --> 01:16:05,684
and say it was the best
in your life
877
01:16:07,696 --> 01:16:10,131
- Think so?
- I'll bet you
878
01:16:11,133 --> 01:16:13,727
Let's make a date
879
01:16:13,936 --> 01:16:15,597
to meet in 20 years
880
01:16:16,005 --> 01:16:17,871
Meaning I'm supposed to let
you go for 20 years?
881
01:16:23,245 --> 01:16:26,579
If you find your dad will you
still go abroad?
882
01:16:27,817 --> 01:16:31,412
- If he tells me not to I won't
- And if we don't find him?
883
01:16:31,620 --> 01:16:35,215
- I don't know
- Well, I do
884
01:16:35,491 --> 01:16:37,118
You'll keep looking over
your shoulder,
885
01:16:37,460 --> 01:16:41,090
- even if you go abroad
- What do you mean?
886
01:16:41,297 --> 01:16:44,961
A girl your age doesn't behave
like this
887
01:16:45,267 --> 01:16:48,498
She thinks of herself, the future,
not some stupid letters
888
01:16:48,704 --> 01:16:51,298
Frankly, it crossed my mind that
you were sending the letters yourself
889
01:16:51,507 --> 01:16:55,205
- Am I nuts, then?
-You know what I mean
890
01:17:11,293 --> 01:17:14,228
- Where're you going?
- I've been waiting upstairs for 3 hours
891
01:17:14,396 --> 01:17:17,229
I've arranged with your dad
for our wedding to be next week
892
01:17:17,533 --> 01:17:19,524
How can you arrange that
without telling me?
893
01:17:20,536 --> 01:17:23,699
- I can't get a hold of you
- Still, you should've consulted me
894
01:17:23,906 --> 01:17:26,705
- Meaning you think otherwise?
- I'm not ready
895
01:17:27,076 --> 01:17:29,135
- Why? What's lacking?
- Lots of things
896
01:17:29,345 --> 01:17:33,111
Your wedding dress has been at the
seamstress's for a month
897
01:17:33,482 --> 01:17:34,347
Go get it; what else do you need?
898
01:17:34,583 --> 01:17:37,609
Sheets, underclothes, curtains..
899
01:17:38,053 --> 01:17:39,817
Let's go buy them right now
900
01:17:41,090 --> 01:17:42,421
I want to postpone this a bit
901
01:17:44,059 --> 01:17:47,495
Fine, we'll postpone it
902
01:17:48,998 --> 01:17:51,467
- But I want a convincing reason
- I'm..
903
01:17:52,935 --> 01:17:54,061
Not ready emotionally
904
01:17:57,373 --> 01:18:00,502
Well, I can't bear this anymore
905
01:18:01,343 --> 01:18:04,005
I waited 3 years for you to accept
me, also because of acting
906
01:18:04,480 --> 01:18:06,608
What now? Isn't it all settled?
907
01:18:07,483 --> 01:18:09,383
Are you afraid you might have
a real talent?
908
01:18:10,786 --> 01:18:13,721
I am afraid you'll turn out
to be a talent
909
01:18:14,023 --> 01:18:17,687
Know why? Because you'll be
famous
910
01:18:18,527 --> 01:18:20,461
and turn your back on me
911
01:18:20,963 --> 01:18:22,158
But Doha..
912
01:18:23,465 --> 01:18:27,868
İf I lose you.. I'll never forgive
myself
913
01:18:30,105 --> 01:18:35,202
Don't worry. I have no talent,
nor am I an actress
914
01:18:42,585 --> 01:18:45,282
- Where in Alexandria?
- The address's on this paper
915
01:18:45,487 --> 01:18:47,717
- Hello, Om Dalia
- How are you, Om Aly?
916
01:18:47,923 --> 01:18:49,982
Come pick up the savings
collective money
917
01:18:50,159 --> 01:18:52,594
Your eggplants were full of
seeds last time
918
01:18:53,062 --> 01:18:54,427
I'll make it up to you
919
01:18:54,597 --> 01:18:55,530
I'm going to him right now
920
01:18:55,731 --> 01:18:57,859
- Wait till tomorrow at least
-I can't
921
01:19:05,441 --> 01:19:09,378
How long does it take to get
to Alexandria?
922
01:19:09,878 --> 01:19:12,347
- Two hours
- Two going and two coming..
923
01:19:12,948 --> 01:19:16,384
Let's say two more with your
dad.. six hours altogether. Great
924
01:19:16,585 --> 01:19:20,078
-You're coming?
- After all my investigations, I have to
925
01:19:20,322 --> 01:19:23,121
- But Ibrahim?
- He and the kids are at his mother's
926
01:19:23,325 --> 01:19:25,987
We'll be back before morning.
Let's go
927
01:19:26,795 --> 01:19:31,562
Is this a way to act when
your wedding's in a week?
928
01:19:34,303 --> 01:19:36,704
What is it?
Don't you love Tarek?
929
01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:40,940
It's not Tarek.. True he's
a bit stiff
930
01:19:41,343 --> 01:19:44,108
and doesn't say sweet things
to me but he loves me
931
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:46,374
I didn't ask if he loved you
932
01:19:46,615 --> 01:19:49,175
I asked if you loved him..
what's going on?
933
01:19:50,819 --> 01:19:51,809
- Get out
- What is it?
934
01:19:52,021 --> 01:19:54,456
- Get out
- Talk to me, you savage
935
01:19:54,657 --> 01:19:55,988
- Get out, I said
- Talk to me
936
01:19:56,158 --> 01:19:58,388
Fine, get out so I can talk
10 you properly
937
01:20:01,163 --> 01:20:05,691
Be civilized, son!
What're you doing?
938
01:20:09,371 --> 01:20:10,964
- What is it?
- What's going on?
939
01:20:11,573 --> 01:20:12,870
- Calm down
- Move!
940
01:20:17,379 --> 01:20:21,043
- What's going on, you two?
- Let him go, he's Tarek
941
01:20:23,585 --> 01:20:25,883
- That's enough
- Calm down
942
01:20:27,289 --> 01:20:28,279
Calm down
943
01:20:56,985 --> 01:20:58,009
Come, Doha
944
01:21:10,966 --> 01:21:11,660
Sorry
945
01:21:19,441 --> 01:21:20,374
No, I'm sorry
946
01:22:08,724 --> 01:22:10,021
I'll make some tea
947
01:22:12,327 --> 01:22:13,556
I'm going to the bathroom
948
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,534
I want to tell you -
949
01:23:29,605 --> 01:23:31,164
that I'm a fool
950
01:23:34,977 --> 01:23:38,140
Yes, a fool,
951
01:23:39,615 --> 01:23:42,016
for not believing Nagwa's death
952
01:23:45,487 --> 01:23:47,683
I tried to escape death for
the second time
953
01:23:52,227 --> 01:23:56,494
A fool for being attracted to you
when I know it's hopeless
954
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:01,932
You're engaged to Tarek
and you love him
955
01:24:05,140 --> 01:24:06,574
Yes, you love him
956
01:24:07,843 --> 01:24:12,781
If you'd seen the way you look at
him, your fear for him
957
01:24:14,917 --> 01:24:16,885
you'd know how much you love him
958
01:24:19,488 --> 01:24:20,614
Doha, ..
959
01:24:22,257 --> 01:24:25,818
I realized I was treating you
with the selfishness of a child
960
01:24:40,075 --> 01:24:41,042
Doha..
961
01:25:27,556 --> 01:25:29,024
Here she is
962
01:25:34,262 --> 01:25:37,163
Where've you been and what's this
Tarek tells us?
963
01:25:37,499 --> 01:25:38,898
What did he say?
964
01:25:39,267 --> 01:25:41,463
That you're acting strangely,
and don't know what you want
965
01:25:41,637 --> 01:25:44,334
- Did you have a fight?
- Let's go upstairs
966
01:25:44,539 --> 01:25:48,305
- We're going to Alexandria
- We have the address of Salma's father
967
01:25:48,477 --> 01:25:52,107
- Are you nuts to go now?
- We'll let you be the sensible one
968
01:25:52,948 --> 01:25:54,006
Wait, Salma
969
01:25:56,318 --> 01:25:58,013
- Out of my way
- What?
970
01:25:58,420 --> 01:26:00,184
Who needs sense?
971
01:26:43,932 --> 01:26:44,956
Is that your dad?
972
01:26:48,537 --> 01:26:49,470
Go to him
973
01:26:52,140 --> 01:26:55,735
Be quick, I have to be back
before morning
974
01:26:57,779 --> 01:26:59,645
What're you waiting for?
975
01:27:12,461 --> 01:27:15,920
- What is it?
- I don't know
976
01:27:16,331 --> 01:27:18,129
- What's wrong?
- I feel cold
977
01:27:18,333 --> 01:27:19,926
- Cold?
- What can I do?
978
01:27:20,135 --> 01:27:21,762
I think I'm in labor, girls
979
01:27:21,970 --> 01:27:23,096
- What?
-I'm in labor
980
01:27:23,305 --> 01:27:26,138
- What do you mean?
- I'm giving birth. Drive, quickly
981
01:27:26,341 --> 01:27:27,433
Come on, drive
982
01:27:27,642 --> 01:27:33,046
- Take her to a hospital..
- Calm down, Yousriya
983
01:27:36,251 --> 01:27:38,049
Yousriya.. where are you?
984
01:27:38,253 --> 01:27:43,214
Ibrahim, I'm in labor.. at the
hospital.. Ell-Shefa hospital
985
01:27:43,725 --> 01:27:47,628
- The one in Manial?
- No, in Alexandria.. Alexandria!
986
01:27:47,796 --> 01:27:49,821
Near Al-Raml.. Al-Raml
987
01:27:50,098 --> 01:27:54,296
What do you mean Alexandria?
Yousriya..
988
01:27:54,770 --> 01:27:57,137
Operating Theater
989
01:28:20,929 --> 01:28:24,957
There's a mirror, a comb and
powder if you like
990
01:28:30,405 --> 01:28:31,463
Come in
991
01:28:40,015 --> 01:28:42,677
But you don't really need any of that
992
01:28:43,285 --> 01:28:45,617
You're lovely by the grace of God
993
01:28:56,131 --> 01:28:57,565
Step this way if you're ready
994
01:29:05,807 --> 01:29:08,139
It's obvious you're not from
around here
995
01:29:12,848 --> 01:29:17,046
- How do you know?
- You're different from the women here
996
01:29:17,419 --> 01:29:21,981
Most of them swaddle their heads
in scarves and wear socks with sandals
997
01:29:22,691 --> 01:29:25,217
Look this way. See my finger?
998
01:29:25,427 --> 01:29:27,828
Don't move.. that's it
999
01:29:29,898 --> 01:29:31,457
Those women come in and say:
1000
01:29:31,666 --> 01:29:36,536
"Make me look like Nancy Agram"..
Some want to look like Shakira
1001
01:29:39,174 --> 01:29:42,735
Don't look at me.. look here
1002
01:29:43,144 --> 01:29:46,580
Keep your eyes on this finger..
Excuse me
1003
01:29:48,016 --> 01:29:48,847
There..
1004
01:29:52,621 --> 01:29:55,056
Don't you remember photographing
this face before?
1005
01:29:56,224 --> 01:29:59,250
I've never seen such beauty
and smart taste
1006
01:30:01,062 --> 01:30:04,157
- You photographed me before
- How long ago?
1007
01:30:04,699 --> 01:30:07,999
- More than 20 years ago
- So long!
1008
01:30:10,338 --> 01:30:12,329
And you still remember me?
1009
01:30:12,641 --> 01:30:14,609
Some people can't be forgotten
1010
01:30:19,414 --> 01:30:24,545
How can I remember every face?
I see so many new ones every day
1011
01:30:25,053 --> 01:30:29,286
Some round, some long,
some chubby, some bony..
1012
01:30:29,557 --> 01:30:31,685
Some with hair, others bald
1013
01:30:34,496 --> 01:30:35,827
And your daughter's face?
1014
01:30:40,235 --> 01:30:43,261
My daughter! My daughter?
1015
01:30:47,976 --> 01:30:49,137
I'm your daughter
1016
01:30:50,745 --> 01:30:54,477
- How I wish
- I'm serious
1017
01:31:02,023 --> 01:31:04,993
Whose daughter? Nabaa's?
1018
01:31:06,294 --> 01:31:09,855
Or Ragaa's or Adriya's?
1019
01:31:10,665 --> 01:31:13,657
- You must be Stella's
- Stella! I'm Salma
1020
01:31:15,103 --> 01:31:16,468
- Nagwa's girl
-Yes
1021
01:31:16,705 --> 01:31:19,367
Shame on me! My firstborn!
1022
01:31:20,008 --> 01:31:22,306
- But Salma's eyes were..
- They're lenses
1023
01:31:22,477 --> 01:31:25,742
Lenses! You... excuse me
1024
01:31:32,387 --> 01:31:34,219
Look at your dad's photography
1025
01:31:35,223 --> 01:31:37,317
- Is this you, Salma?
-Yes
1026
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:43,293
- Who's this lady, Dad?
- Your aunt Nagwa, Salma's mom
1027
01:31:43,698 --> 01:31:45,325
Wow! She's real pretty
1028
01:31:46,201 --> 01:31:49,603
Hear that? Saeed has good taste
like his dad
1029
01:31:50,205 --> 01:31:54,199
- What did you say, Abdou?
- Long ago.. I said long ago
1030
01:31:54,442 --> 01:31:55,807
Oh.. just wondering
1031
01:31:56,277 --> 01:31:59,645
If I still had a taste
would my lot be.. this?
1032
01:32:02,250 --> 01:32:05,743
I was the first photographer
in Shubra -
1033
01:32:06,121 --> 01:32:08,021
to use an eight millimeter lense
1034
01:32:08,490 --> 01:32:11,187
You could say I introduced it
to Shubra
1035
01:32:12,227 --> 01:32:16,323
- Really. I'm not pulling your leg
- "Pulling your leg"!
1036
01:32:17,265 --> 01:32:18,664
You don't know what it means?
1037
01:32:19,734 --> 01:32:22,533
It's a word we simple folks use
1038
01:32:22,837 --> 01:32:26,501
It means joking, kidding, boasting..
1039
01:32:27,375 --> 01:32:28,342
Look at this one
1040
01:32:29,244 --> 01:32:31,406
This was your first day at school
1041
01:32:31,613 --> 01:32:33,581
You didn't want to go
1042
01:32:33,915 --> 01:32:36,782
I kept telling you,
"Off to school, gal"
1043
01:32:37,085 --> 01:32:37,881
Off to school, gal
1044
01:32:42,557 --> 01:32:45,618
Here I am hiding in order
10 surprise you
1045
01:32:47,128 --> 01:32:49,563
I had a lot of other pictures
1046
01:32:50,065 --> 01:32:53,899
They got lost when I moved;
I moved house more than 80 times
1047
01:32:54,969 --> 01:32:55,993
What a loss!
1048
01:32:56,237 --> 01:32:58,262
- Who's this?
- Sanaa
1049
01:32:58,940 --> 01:33:02,399
She's your sister too, kids,
but she lives in Burkina Faso
1050
01:33:07,115 --> 01:33:11,484
I love all the women in my life
1051
01:33:12,187 --> 01:33:15,987
But if I could choose whom I'll be
with in paradise I'd choose your mom
1052
01:33:16,624 --> 01:33:19,616
- How come?
- So I could do as I please
1053
01:33:20,361 --> 01:33:23,661
Have an affair with this woman
and that..
1054
01:33:23,898 --> 01:33:27,334
Look here, look there, she
wouldn't say a word
1055
01:33:28,303 --> 01:33:31,671
It wouldn't be bad, as I would
be in heaven
1056
01:33:33,041 --> 01:33:35,533
Is that why you left Mom?
1057
01:33:36,277 --> 01:33:39,611
I didn't leave her, she left me
1058
01:33:43,585 --> 01:33:46,782
Is that why you didn't try to
see me?
1059
01:33:47,856 --> 01:33:50,826
I went to Libya right after
the divorce
1060
01:33:52,260 --> 01:33:55,491
When I returned I heard
she'd remarried
1061
01:33:58,867 --> 01:34:01,893
and cut her ties with everyone
she used to know
1062
01:34:02,570 --> 01:34:06,803
But I was certain you were
well cared for
1063
01:34:07,342 --> 01:34:11,370
I could never give you the
life you're living now
1064
01:34:16,518 --> 01:34:19,852
If I hadn't come here today..
1065
01:34:21,489 --> 01:34:22,979
You wouldn't have looked for me?
1066
01:34:23,358 --> 01:34:24,655
Listen, dear
1067
01:34:25,326 --> 01:34:29,092
You were able to live without
me for 15 years
1068
01:34:29,497 --> 01:34:30,965
You don't need me
1069
01:34:36,104 --> 01:34:41,167
Tell me, what are your circumstances
after Nagwa's death?
1070
01:34:47,182 --> 01:34:51,016
- I'm going abroad
- Where and why?
1071
01:34:51,986 --> 01:34:54,455
My company transferred me to
its branch in New York
1072
01:34:56,124 --> 01:35:00,721
New York! That company must
pay good money..
1073
01:35:05,099 --> 01:35:06,726
May God grant you success
1074
01:35:31,292 --> 01:35:33,852
- What took you so long?
- How is she?
1075
01:35:34,062 --> 01:35:37,157
- Fine.. what have you brought?
- Things for the baby
1076
01:35:39,701 --> 01:35:41,999
- See what we got for the baby?
- What're they doing here?
1077
01:35:42,337 --> 01:35:45,136
- I'll explain
- You didn't come here to get away
1078
01:35:45,340 --> 01:35:47,331
but for a good time with
your friends
1079
01:35:47,542 --> 01:35:50,375
I swore I'd divorce you
if you saw them again
1080
01:35:50,578 --> 01:35:53,206
You swore you would if I phoned
her and I did
1081
01:35:54,182 --> 01:35:57,015
By God, you'll leave with me for
Cairo this minute
1082
01:35:57,218 --> 01:35:59,084
I'll deal with you there.
Let's go
1083
01:35:59,454 --> 01:36:01,445
This won't do. She just gave
birth yesterday
1084
01:36:01,656 --> 01:36:03,522
I'll explain why we came here..
1085
01:36:03,725 --> 01:36:06,626
I'm not concerned with your business
1086
01:36:06,828 --> 01:36:09,889
but with this lunatic who followed
you with her stomach out to here!
1087
01:36:10,398 --> 01:36:13,766
- Calm down, Mr. Ibrahim
- Stay out of it and I'll calm down
1088
01:36:14,002 --> 01:36:15,868
She was in her right mind
till you showed up
1089
01:36:16,170 --> 01:36:19,504
- What do you want, Ibrahim?
- Admit in front of them now -
1090
01:36:19,707 --> 01:36:21,334
that you've lost your mind
1091
01:36:21,609 --> 01:36:22,906
Stop that, Ibrahim
1092
01:36:23,177 --> 01:36:24,941
- Say it, Yousriya
- I won't
1093
01:36:25,146 --> 01:36:26,773
I'll divorce you if you don't
1094
01:36:35,690 --> 01:36:36,714
Divorce me
1095
01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:07,051
Did you see your dad?
1096
01:37:08,623 --> 01:37:09,419
Yes
1097
01:37:11,693 --> 01:37:16,130
- Was it him?
- No
1098
01:37:17,965 --> 01:37:20,730
Not your dad or not the letter
sender?
1099
01:37:23,504 --> 01:37:24,494
Both
1100
01:37:34,282 --> 01:37:36,683
It's someone close to you
but you haven't noticed
1101
01:37:38,019 --> 01:37:39,646
Someone who knows you well
1102
01:37:41,122 --> 01:37:42,920
Perhaps he thought you might
know him
1103
01:37:49,130 --> 01:37:51,963
Uncle Rabie.. where are you?
1104
01:38:51,859 --> 01:38:53,850
Congratulations on your new car
1105
01:38:59,667 --> 01:39:04,571
I worried about you going and
coming from Shubra
1106
01:39:07,442 --> 01:39:09,740
- It's nice
- Really?
1107
01:39:14,315 --> 01:39:15,805
Nagwa picked it out herself
1108
01:39:16,284 --> 01:39:19,276
And you were in such a hurry?
1109
01:39:26,294 --> 01:39:31,630
When they told me at the hospital that
she'd died, I didn't know what to do
1110
01:39:34,135 --> 01:39:35,569
I wanted to run to her
1111
01:39:36,838 --> 01:39:38,499
and ask her what I should do
1112
01:39:40,775 --> 01:39:45,303
I kept going back and forth
all night
1113
01:39:47,582 --> 01:39:49,778
When I put the newspaper
under the door
1114
01:39:51,052 --> 01:39:53,646
I almost thought Nagwa would
grab it like she always does
1115
01:39:56,123 --> 01:39:58,717
When I went in and found
everything as it was
1116
01:40:01,662 --> 01:40:06,862
I thought perhaps she was
travelling or running an errand
1117
01:40:08,402 --> 01:40:12,305
and that I wouldn't see much
of her
1118
01:40:14,675 --> 01:40:19,169
I'd be upset of course,
but I'd understand
1119
01:40:25,586 --> 01:40:28,851
They say that when a loved one dies
1120
01:40:30,558 --> 01:40:32,925
you must attend their burial
to believe it
1121
01:40:35,496 --> 01:40:37,487
After burying my son Sherif..
1122
01:40:39,133 --> 01:40:41,101
I couldn't witness Nagwa's
1123
01:40:44,205 --> 01:40:48,039
Son? Did you have a son?
1124
01:40:49,844 --> 01:40:53,405
Yes, with Laila
1125
01:40:57,251 --> 01:41:00,653
- Laila who..
- My first wife
1126
01:41:02,423 --> 01:41:04,448
She broke down instantly
1127
01:41:05,459 --> 01:41:08,019
She hadn't been in the house
for 15 years
1128
01:41:08,729 --> 01:41:10,094
since the day Sherif died
1129
01:41:10,464 --> 01:41:11,625
How did he die?
1130
01:41:16,904 --> 01:41:20,636
He got a fever and died within 5
hours. Nothing I could do
1131
01:41:21,142 --> 01:41:25,340
Just like Nagwa fell off a tree
1132
01:41:26,047 --> 01:41:29,278
Why didn't you tell me before
that Laila was your wife?
1133
01:41:29,984 --> 01:41:31,452
You didn't give me a chance
1134
01:41:33,554 --> 01:41:38,082
You said I wasn't your father,
we had only 40 days together
1135
01:41:38,659 --> 01:41:41,424
- And you're becoming more distant
- I've always been distant
1136
01:41:41,929 --> 01:41:43,658
Nagwa feared for you so much
1137
01:41:44,131 --> 01:41:48,090
- You were afraid of me, not for me
- I never agreed to her isolating you
1138
01:41:48,903 --> 01:41:52,339
- Why Mohamed Mounir?
- I always buy you his new tapes
1139
01:41:52,640 --> 01:41:56,577
- But you'd send it with Mom
- Mom's dead
1140
01:42:01,315 --> 01:42:03,841
- Why didn't you say it was you?
- I could have
1141
01:42:04,685 --> 01:42:08,019
But it was our first time
to talk after Nagwa's death
1142
01:42:10,358 --> 01:42:12,486
In the morning when I opened
the paper
1143
01:42:13,995 --> 01:42:17,863
I found your horoscope saying
exactly what I longed to say to you
1144
01:42:18,165 --> 01:42:22,693
"Reassess the past"..
meaning my old life in Shubra, right?
1145
01:42:23,738 --> 01:42:28,005
By "your life" I meant your
life here with us
1146
01:42:28,743 --> 01:42:33,442
The happy times I had with you
and Nagwa.. did you forget them?
1147
01:42:35,016 --> 01:42:38,543
- But you made me return to Shubra
- You needed someone to talk to,
1148
01:42:39,587 --> 01:42:43,581
to complain to, even it's about me.
So I thought of Doha and Yousriya
1149
01:42:44,058 --> 01:42:47,426
Your old friends, whose photographs
you'd hidden
1150
01:42:47,695 --> 01:42:50,460
so that Mom wouldn't tear
them up like the others
1151
01:42:52,099 --> 01:42:54,466
When I learned you were leaving
I nearly lost my mind
1152
01:42:55,336 --> 01:42:58,670
That's why I sent a clue
10 your father's studio
1153
01:42:58,839 --> 01:43:01,740
I could bear your going back
to him rather than going abroad
1154
01:43:02,276 --> 01:43:05,439
Do anything else except go abroad
1155
01:43:51,459 --> 01:43:54,360
- I went to Uncle Rabie
- Why?
1156
01:43:56,797 --> 01:43:58,287
You were right, Yousriya
1157
01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:01,398
It was someone very close to me
1158
01:44:02,570 --> 01:44:05,096
What? Your stepfather?
1159
01:44:05,506 --> 01:44:08,203
While I was avoiding being with him,
1160
01:44:08,743 --> 01:44:11,371
he was trying to distract me
so I wouldn't leave
1161
01:44:11,979 --> 01:44:15,973
- What else did he say?
- A lot of things
1162
01:44:16,250 --> 01:44:17,877
But I couldn't say anything
1163
01:44:19,987 --> 01:44:24,925
I tried, but I couldn't. It's hard
1164
01:44:27,862 --> 01:44:30,854
The barrier that's been between
us all these years is hard to break
1165
01:44:31,332 --> 01:44:35,394
Is that it, then?
No more letters?
1166
01:44:37,004 --> 01:44:38,972
Why're you so upset?
1167
01:44:40,975 --> 01:44:43,239
When we reunited and started
going out
1168
01:44:44,979 --> 01:44:46,743
I'd remember myself in the past
1169
01:44:49,250 --> 01:44:51,150
I started feeling things
I'd forgotten
1170
01:44:51,986 --> 01:44:54,819
For years I never expected
anything good to happen
1171
01:44:56,891 --> 01:44:59,656
Remember when you asked me
1172
01:44:59,860 --> 01:45:03,353
what I did in my life?
Nothing at all
1173
01:45:04,565 --> 01:45:07,535
My life was empty; there were
no people in it
1174
01:45:08,736 --> 01:45:13,173
Is your life full now?
What about our lives?
1175
01:45:43,370 --> 01:45:46,772
- What?
- I forgot to add water
1176
01:45:56,517 --> 01:45:58,076
I'm sorry, Yousriya
1177
01:45:58,586 --> 01:46:00,782
If I'd known I'd cause all this
I wouldn't have come back
1178
01:46:01,355 --> 01:46:04,222
Too late. Everything's been ruined
1179
01:46:05,092 --> 01:46:08,551
Be honest with yourself.
We both know who ruined your life
1180
01:46:12,733 --> 01:46:15,168
You knew he was sending the
letters and didn't say!
1181
01:46:15,369 --> 01:46:17,269
- Enough!
- It's not enough
1182
01:46:18,772 --> 01:46:20,240
What's between you and Uncle Rabie?
1183
01:46:25,279 --> 01:46:28,874
Uncle Rabie! My stepfather, Doha?
1184
01:46:29,416 --> 01:46:31,680
Suddenly he's your stepfather
and you care about him?
1185
01:46:32,086 --> 01:46:34,885
Or is all you care about is the
lifestyle he provides?
1186
01:46:35,289 --> 01:46:37,417
Thanks to him you returned
here a high class lady,
1187
01:46:37,925 --> 01:46:39,859
returned to your old simple friends
1188
01:46:40,294 --> 01:46:42,126
- Doha
- Let her talk
1189
01:46:42,329 --> 01:46:44,525
She's always been jealous of me
1190
01:46:44,732 --> 01:46:47,702
Jealous? You're selfish...
and think of nothing but yourself
1191
01:46:47,902 --> 01:46:50,064
I, selfish?
1192
01:46:50,337 --> 01:46:52,897
Frankly, you two have always
been jealous of each other
1193
01:46:53,407 --> 01:46:54,738
- Jealous of her?
-Yes
1194
01:46:54,942 --> 01:46:57,968
Am I the one who put Abdel Salam's
letter outside Headmistress's door?
1195
01:46:58,279 --> 01:47:01,374
I dropped it accidentally..
How could you?
1196
01:47:01,615 --> 01:47:03,208
You're no angel either
1197
01:47:06,053 --> 01:47:11,287
- Stop lying, Yousriya
- Really!
1198
01:47:11,926 --> 01:47:14,020
Ibrahim was right when he said
you were foolish kids
1199
01:47:15,963 --> 01:47:18,227
Why did I leave my family and
come with you to Alexandria?
1200
01:47:19,266 --> 01:47:23,328
Your life will go on whether you
find your father or go abroad
1201
01:47:24,605 --> 01:47:28,007
But I.. how!'ll Ibrahim manage
the kids without me?
1202
01:47:30,177 --> 01:47:33,545
How will he manage himself?
What about me?
1203
01:47:34,848 --> 01:47:36,373
What will I do all alone?
1204
01:47:40,087 --> 01:47:43,421
If you apologize he'll forgive
you and take you back
1205
01:47:44,658 --> 01:47:46,126
What about me?
1206
01:47:47,261 --> 01:47:50,856
Can Tarek forgive me?
Will he understand?
1207
01:47:52,900 --> 01:47:54,334
If he does forgive me..
1208
01:47:55,769 --> 01:47:56,861
Can I forgive myself?
1209
01:47:57,204 --> 01:48:00,401
You talk as if your lives were
heaven and I ruined them
1210
01:48:01,442 --> 01:48:04,537
You want an acting career
and Tarek together
1211
01:48:04,745 --> 01:48:06,941
And you know that can't be
1212
01:48:07,181 --> 01:48:08,945
But you refuse to compromise
1213
01:48:09,917 --> 01:48:13,046
You Yousriya, say you're not happy
1214
01:48:13,420 --> 01:48:15,650
Did you ever ask yourself if
Ibrahim was happy?
1215
01:48:16,123 --> 01:48:18,023
Have you tried to make him happy?
1216
01:48:22,563 --> 01:48:25,294
If it makes you feel better
to blame me for your problems..
1217
01:48:28,936 --> 01:48:32,964
I say no. I'm going abroad.
Show me what you'll do, then
1218
01:48:33,307 --> 01:48:34,638
Go and have done!
1219
01:48:35,009 --> 01:48:37,239
Let's have done with this
lousy friendship!
1220
01:48:37,778 --> 01:48:39,803
It was lousy, like your faces
1221
01:48:42,216 --> 01:48:43,684
- Yes Hisham?
- Salma
1222
01:48:44,651 --> 01:48:45,675
I've asked for your hand
1223
01:48:45,886 --> 01:48:47,115
- Asked for my hand?
-Yes
1224
01:48:47,855 --> 01:48:48,686
From whom?
1225
01:48:49,323 --> 01:48:51,417
- Dr. Rabie
- But..
1226
01:48:52,159 --> 01:48:53,923
- What?
- How could you without telling me?
1227
01:48:54,128 --> 01:48:56,222
- Give me that..
- Do you accept?
1228
01:48:56,497 --> 01:48:57,896
- Of course she does
- Hello..
1229
01:48:58,165 --> 01:49:00,395
- Where can she find a better man?
- What're you saying?
1230
01:49:00,634 --> 01:49:01,294
- Let go!
- I don't accept
1231
01:49:01,502 --> 01:49:03,869
- Shut up! Of course you accept
- Hello.. Salma..
1232
01:49:06,106 --> 01:49:09,371
- You're not going abroad
- The guy's gorgeous, with green eyes
1233
01:49:10,878 --> 01:49:12,778
- No
- Listen here
1234
01:49:15,315 --> 01:49:16,441
You better listen to us
1235
01:49:21,021 --> 01:49:22,216
No
1236
01:49:22,523 --> 01:49:23,922
What do you say, Salma?
1237
01:49:46,080 --> 01:49:47,673
Oh! Let me feel your face..
1238
01:49:48,282 --> 01:49:49,681
You have a fever, you're
burning up
1239
01:49:49,883 --> 01:49:51,351
Oh Lord, what shall I do?
1240
01:49:51,685 --> 01:49:53,483
What shall I do?
1241
01:49:53,687 --> 01:49:56,019
Should I get you some medicine
or make some hot lemon?
1242
01:49:56,223 --> 01:49:57,713
- Know what you should get?
- What?
1243
01:49:59,359 --> 01:50:02,056
- A kiss
- No! Let me go...!
1244
01:50:02,696 --> 01:50:06,792
I'm not your plaything.
Let me go! What's this?
1245
01:50:07,201 --> 01:50:11,001
Have mercy!
I want to hand in my master's thesis!
1246
01:50:11,538 --> 01:50:13,768
Give us an hour to rest the machines
1247
01:50:15,742 --> 01:50:17,972
It's been ten days and not one
chapter has been typed!
1248
01:50:18,245 --> 01:50:19,804
- It'll get done
- Not by myself
1249
01:50:20,647 --> 01:50:23,139
Of those who complain of it
1250
01:50:24,218 --> 01:50:29,987
Those who satisfy it..
Those who suffer it
1251
01:50:31,658 --> 01:50:37,722
You who wonder about life,
take it as it is
1252
01:50:38,732 --> 01:50:41,667
There are smiles, there's pain
1253
01:50:42,202 --> 01:50:43,260
There's cruelty and tenderness
