(IN HEBREW) It's 10:10 a.m.

First reenactment
of the events of May 4,

in the presence of Natalie
Amiel...

Smadja.

RAFI: Smadja,
the investigating team,

and the French Consulate rep,

Karim Taleb.

Go ahead, Esti.

(IN ENGLISH)
Can you tell us where we are?

At the Xanadu.

Where were you
when the lights went out?

Stand right there.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER
OVER POLICE RADIO)

Eran, where was he?

RAFI: (IN HEBREW) Come here.

He's too tall, it's no good.
Where's Sami?

With the car.

(IN ENGLISH) He's the right
height.

Could you stand here for a
minute?

Yes. (CLEARS THROAT)

Um, right.

Uh, so you were standing

next to the cake. And then?

We picked up the knife.

Together.

For the picture.

Eran was behind me.

ESTI: Come stand behind her.

Act natural.

(SNIFFS)

Now, what do you remember?

The dark.

ESTI: Did you move?
Did someone make you move?

No, I...
I didn't move or see anything.

Um, and when the lights came
back on,

what do you remember?

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

ESTI: Hello?

NATALIE: The people.

They were staring at me.

All right. Let's backtrack.

Where were you before?

-(SIGHS) Before the cake?
-ESTI: Yes.

The bathroom.

Come show us.

Go in.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Were you alone in here?

(INHALES) I don't know.

ESTI: You weren't alone in here,
were you?

(IN HEBREW) Are you prompting
her?

ESTI: I'm suggesting
possibilities.

Stop.

(IN ENGLISH)
Let me get out of here, please.

ESTI: Just wait. Wait.

Where were you exactly, huh?

Hmm?

Does it really matter?

Just try to remember.

Open the door, please.

(IN HEBREW) It's your blood,
we checked.

(IN ENGLISH) It's your blood.

We ran the tests.

(IN HEBREW) Did you touch the
bowl?

(IN ENGLISH) The toilet?

Did anyone force you
to do something?

I don't know.

You should try to remember
how you felt at the time.

-Please, don't interfere, okay?
-Sure, sure.

-We know our job.
-ESTI: Natalie.

Natalie, please tell me
what you felt.

I was scared.

Did someone scare you?

I can't remember.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

-(IN HEBREW) Who's that?
-Don't move.

Sorry, you can't come down here.

I want the manager.

We must return the gifts
to the guests

or they'll call us thieves.

-I'm sorry.
-Johanna, here.

ESTI: Her sister.

(IN ENGLISH) I beg you.
Tell Daddy that I'm okay.

Natalie. Natalie, don't let...
Don't let them fool you, okay?

(IN HEBREW) Get rid of her!

JOHANNA: (IN ENGLISH) Don't let
them
talk you into anything.

Don't let them, please!

-Please calm down.
-Only tell them what you want!

Natalie. Natalie.

Come. Come with me
for a second, please.

Let me help you. Come.

Come on. Come on.

(NATALIE SOBBING)

KARIM: They just want
to understand what happened.

Yeah, sure.

You don't think it was her?

A bride murdering her groom
at her own wedding? Come on.

(IN HEBREW) Hello, Shai.

Why are you here?

JOËL: Our condolences. To you

and the whole family.

Why are you here? What do you
want?

(IN ENGLISH) Here, take this.
Take it, please.

JOËL: (IN HEBREW)
She thinks you should have it.

(IN ENGLISH) It belongs to
Natalie.

(IN HEBREW) I don't need it.

(IN ENGLISH) Here.

(IN HEBREW) She insists.

I don't want it.

ROSA: (IN ENGLISH) Take it.

-(IN HEBREW) No.
-(RING CLATTERS)

(IN ENGLISH)
You and Natalie are tied.

(IN HEBREW)
She says you and Natalie are
tied.

ROSA: (IN ENGLISH) A childless
widow
marries her brother-in-law.

To continue the line.

In tradition.

Tell him.

(IN HEBREW) Under Jewish law,
you have to marry her.

SHAI: I know.

(IN ENGLISH) Do the Halizah
ceremony
to get rid of the obligation,

or neither of you will be able
to marry again.

(IN HEBREW) The ceremony can...

Is that all that matters?

(IN ENGLISH) Renounce her
before a rabbi. Tell him.

Rosa, this is not the best
moment.

(IN HEBREW)
He isn't even buried yet.

(IN ENGLISH) No. It's simple,
it's just like divorce.

Just do it as soon as possible,
before the tie gets complicated.

Tell him!

Rosa, he knows
but he refuses to do it.

(IN HEBREW) You ought to go.

(IN ENGLISH) Hey, listen. Come.

Let's go to the police station.
We might be able to see her,
okay?

-Please, let's go.
-No, this is urgent.

But is it more urgent than
seeing your own daughter? Come
on.

Please, Joël.

But he said no.

(IN HEBREW) Rosa, go away.

(IN ENGLISH) Go.

(IN HEBREW) Just go.

(IN ENGLISH)
You believe in God, don't you?

You have faith.

I can tell.

You're a very good boy.

Do it for me,

to put my mind at rest.

SHAI: (IN HEBREW) Stop, Rosa.

DOCTOR: (IN ENGLISH) You sure
you don't remember being hit?

Maybe it's from the Pilates.

(IN HEBREW) A violent blow, I'd
say.

(IN ENGLISH) Didn't it hurt you?

No.

DOCTOR: Okay.

These cuts,
how long do you have them?

There are three.

I saw them yesterday
for the first time.

There was only two.

Now there are three,

and they don't look like
from yesterday.

They have scabs.

(IN HEBREW) An allergy, maybe?

DOCTOR: (IN ENGLISH)
I'll give you something for it.

Lie down, please.

Take off your underwear, please.

Thank you.

Okay. Please, open.

Okay.

(IN HEBREW) Um, no sign of
violence.

No lesions.

Traces of blood, however.

(IN ENGLISH) Have you had any,
uh, milky discharge?

NATALIE: No.
DOCTOR: Mmm-hmm.

And you take the pill every day?

-Yes.
-DOCTOR: Okay.

(IN HEBREW) Get the ultrasound.

(IN ENGLISH) What is it?

(ULTRASOUND HUMMING)

That's for pregnant women.
I'm not pregnant.

Am I pregnant?

(IN HEBREW) Try to relax, dear.

(IN ENGLISH) Take deep breath.

DOCTOR: (IN HEBREW)
That's not a heartbeat.

No embryo.

(IN ENGLISH) It's not an embryo.

It looks like an octopus.

DOCTOR: That's because of
the reflection.

There is nothing there.

But it could be that these are
symptoms from something else.

What?

You're having a false pregnancy.

NATALIE: What do you mean?

It happens sometimes. From
stress.

Usually to women
who want to have a baby

or are very scared of it.

And it also common after, um,

sexual abuse.

I don't understand
what this has to do with me.

Okay.

(IN HEBREW)
So, you were in the kitchen

from 4:00 p.m. on, right?

MAN: Mmm-hmm.

Did you notice anything odd
before the incident?

It was too noisy to hear.

-See anything in the corridor?
-I saw nothing.

This is important.

There may have been some
violence
linked to the murder.

But I saw nothing!

And that evening?

-There was nothing unusual?
-No. No.

No.

After the ceremony, maybe...

What?

Some guy kicked up
a fuss in the yard.

Who?

No idea. A guest, I think.

Salim went to calm him.

The guy said
the marriage wasn't normal.

Is any marriage normal?

It's beyond me.

Uh...

Salim the Bedouin? Salim Khaled?

-Is that him? He's the one you
mean?
-Hmm.

Yes.

We can't locate him.

When did you last see him?

For the cake. They asked him...

Asked him what?

He's a good guy.

Asked him what?

To turn off the lights for the
cake.

JOHANNA: (IN ENGLISH)
We'll know more tomorrow.

Okay, I'll tell Dad. Thanks.
Bye.

Hello, I'm sorry to bother you.

Yeah. What?

Do you have a minute to talk?

Thank you.

Anything new with Natalie?

I couldn't really tell you
earlier

but they suspect
she may have been abused.

Did the police say that?

Well, I spoke with the detective

and they told me that they found
bruising on her body.

It was apparently caused on
the evening of the wedding.

And Natalie, uh, what is she
saying?

That she can't remember.

(SNIFFLES)

You don't seem surprised at all.

I am.

But why come here

and tell me all that
instead of my parents?

Because maybe you know something
to help her.

Is this an interrogation?

No, that's not my job, madam.

So then why do you care?

Why do you react like this?
Don't you want to help her?

You know what? That's enough.
I'm calling your superiors!

(LINE RINGING)

Is the police here 100 or 101?

-One hundred.
-A hundred. Right.

FEMALE OPERATOR:French
Consulate,
Tel Aviv, please hold for the...

I wonder how they'll react when
I
tell them what I saw yesterday.

...assisted shortly.
Please continue to hold

and you will be assisted
shortly.

MAN 1:French Consulate,
Tel Aviv. Hello.

MAN 2:Beersheba Police,
how can I help you?

MAN 1:Hello? French Consulate.
MAN 2:Hello.

-Hello, police, how...
-(LINE DISCONNECTS)

I'm not spying on you,
but I was there and I saw

what you burned out there.

You don't understand what you
saw.

So explain it to me.

Hi.

(IN HEBREW)
Is Rafi still with Menahem?

Yes, but you can't go in.

I told her to wait.

I waited.

Sorry, Menahem, I need Rafi.

It's more urgent
than pastries and a PowerPoint.

We need Salim Khaled.

Can I see you after this?

He turned the lights off.

He was arrested two years ago.
Know why?

Spinach?

May I?

So why?

A knife attack, that's why.

(IN ENGLISH) So, tell me.
You say you want to help, right?

So you think she's the victim
here?

Maybe.

But then you also
think she killed him?

I don't know.

There you go.

So that's why you're acting
smart.

Because you can't decide.

What if maybe she's both?

The victim and the culprit.

Eran abused my sister
from the beginning.

That's not what Natalie says.

(SIGHS) Well, she's in denial.

He loved humiliating her
more and more each time.

I know those types of guys.

I hired a private detective
to follow him.

(SIGHS) The one from my divorce,
it's pretty common here.

He took pictures of Eran,
alone and with her.

The bastard would make her
strip naked and fuck him

on the balcony, in the car,
in restaurant bathrooms.

Maybe they were passionate, but
that
doesn't automatically mean...

No, it's abuse.

When one wants something
that your partner doesn't,

when one partner ends up bruised
and not the other.

(SIGHS) He would force her
to play his little game.

I know my sister.
She was living in fear.

It happened a few years ago
in Nice as well.

Did you ever talk about this
with Natalie?

I tried to, yes,
but she wouldn't listen, and...

She also threatened to cut me
off.

What did you expect
by sending the pictures to Eran?

If I were a guy,
I'd have beat him up.

I wanted him to see how it feels
to be treated like an object.

I wanted him scared,
but I ended up panicking.

I burned everything.

Do you think he could have, uh,

hurt her that night
at the wedding party?

(SNIFFLES)

A woman can hide her love
for 40 years,

but her anger not a single day.

My mother says that.

Do you think she killed him?

Listen. You need to tell the
police

-all that.
-Yeah? And for what?

They couldn't care less
about knowing all this stuff.

They want to make
the French girl pay for the
crime

and make her look insane.

-No.
-You saw her.

Do you think that
she should spend her life in
jail?

(SIGHS)

(IN HEBREW) Wait here.
And don't mess up.

Mess up?

I messed up, finding this guy?
And the bathroom?

Must you always answer back?

-No, not always.
-You do.

I don't. Not always.

-Hello.
-Hello.

RAFI: Hi.

How's it going? It's a great
day.

What is it?

His family lives there.

Go on, she's all yours.

(IN ARABIC) Come, come.

ESTI: Hello.

(IN HEBREW) Hebrew?

We're looking for Salim Khaled.
We have some questions.

He's not here.

His wife?

Sister. He lives in Beersheba.

May I come in?
We have a search warrant.

He's not here.

Who lives here?

Me, my mother and the children.

Your husband?

He doesn't live here, either.

So you're alone here?

Yes.

(SIGHS)

Smells good.

Here to ferret or to eat?

Want to know why we want him?

When shit happens,
you go after the Bedouins.

But only your shit interests
you.

(IN ARABIC)
Bedouin matters stay Bedouin.

RAFI: (IN HEBREW) Esti.

He's not here.

The kids don't know
who hung up the dress,

but they do it
when they're afraid of demons.

The demon comes,

gets mixed up and steals the
dress
instead of a woman.

Not a demon, a drag queen.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Yes.

No, no way.

I'm in the South.

Tell Jamus to move his ass and
go.

Yes.

Yes.

(CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY)

(ESTI GROANS)

Rafi!

-RAFI: Run!
-Rafi, for fuck's sake!

Send backup. Suspect on the run.

Hurry! Where? Outside some damn
hut!

Fucking stop!

Salim, hands up!

Keep away!

Why did you run?

Salim.

-I can't be found!
-I won't shoot.

-Get lost!
-I'm not moving.

-Salim.
-No!

(MUTTERS)

(BREATH TREMBLING)

(GASPS)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

Okay, and how is she doing?

A false pregnancy?

Okay, thank you.

RAFI: He ran and fell.
Condition serious but stable.

We followed procedure, period.

That's all there is to it.

-Bye.
-Thanks.

Forget it. He ran, he fell.

Neither your fault nor mine.

You run for a reason.

That's true. That's true.

Know why he ran?

Why?

He saw something that scared him

and that could help us
understand
what she did.

Okay, maybe this Bedouin saw

or did something in the
bathroom.

Does it make her innocent?

Does it?

In her state, house arrest is
wiser.

It's crazy, she puts on an act
and you fall for it.

She has amnesia,

a false pregnancy, a hemorrhage,

bruising and strange marks.

Have you seen where they are?
Here.

That's self-harm.

You think she did it on purpose
so we'd pity her?

And it works.

Great, if it's what she's after.

I'll let her think that.

-Yeah?
-Really, I want her to feel free

and screw up.

They all trip up on release,
right?

Like that guy you caught.
You know...

The Abecassis killer.

One of my greatest hits. Thanks.

But this one is unpredictable.

She's not a serial killer.
She won't run.

She needs a few days,

at home, without feeling
accused.

When someone's accused, they run

or they clam up. Simple.

Give me a break
with your crap psychology.

Let me try first.

There are too many questions.
I want to understand.

What did the doctor say?
Will he make it?

Internal Medicine Ward B

What about me?
When'll you come to see me?

(IN ENGLISH) Sorry.

(SIGHS) How are you feeling?

Here, this is from your parents.

Thank you.

Are you happy
about being released on
probation?

-It's some progress.
-They're not releasing me.

You can go out during the day.

You think they'll release me?

You really came
just to bring me a dress?

(KARIM SIGHS)

I heard about what happened.
About the false pregnancy.

NATALIE: Hmm?

-And?
-And I wondered if you were
okay.

NATALIE: Mmm-hmm.

Do you think the marks on your
body
could perhaps

be linked to the murder somehow?

That I killed him for beating
me?

-Who the hell told you that?
-No one.

I'm just trying to help you.

Just like everyone else.

But I don't need help. I'm
innocent.
And no one ever hurt me.

KARIM: If you change your mind.

I'm gonna be so late.

Can you drop me at Ela's after?

JOHANNA: Are you okay?
It's all over now.

Oh, girls, I wish I could put
all three of you back in my
womb.

That's all I really want, you
know?

All three of you, back in my
womb.

NATALIE: Mom, I'm fine out here
now.

All right. Let's get out of
here.

JESSICA: Come on.
ROSA: Let's go.

(SIGHS)

You have to turn right
after the roundabout, okay?

Got it.

Why aren't we going home?

We have to go somewhere else
first.

But where?

It's just a formality.

NATALIE: What formality?
Is it about the home detention?

JOËL: Ask your mother.

Do you know what a Halizah is?

NATALIE: Hmm?

Screw this! I'm leaving!

ROSA: You're staying right here.

Is that why you took my ring?

-Where is it? Give it back.
-JOËL: Natalie!

-Natalie!
-ROSA: You can't wear it.

Fuck! This is a nightmare!

I'd rather be with the cops.

Dad, take me back.

There he is.

NATALIE: Shai...

I'm sorry.

When is the burying?

Probably tomorrow.

They haven't released the body
yet.

I'm sorry my mom is troubling
you
with all this craziness.

SHAI: This isn't craziness.

I spoke to my rabbi.

We have to do it
as soon as possible.

He's waiting for us.

You want to do this? Now?

I don't believe in
all of these things.

They're not part of my world.

Lots of people have come to
watch.

This isn't a ritual
that happens every day.

We have to get this over with.

Come on, let's do it now.
It'll be quick. Come on, come
on.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW)
All right, gentlemen,

it's a simple ceremony.

You renounce marrying
your brother's wife.

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH) Shai must
officially renounce you.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW)
After the Halizah,

the bond is broken
and you can marry as you wish.

(IN ENGLISH)
After the Halizah ceremony,

you will be free
to marry whoever you want.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW)
A question for the lady.

Do you have children?

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH)
Do you have children?

No.

(IN HEBREW) Are you pregnant?

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH) Are you
pregnant?

No.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW) Do you
renounce
marrying your brother's wife?

Repeat,

"I renounce"...

-(SHAI MUMBLES)
-"I renounce"...

(MUMBLES)

Louder.

"I renounce"...

Sorry.

RABBI: "I renounce marrying
her."
Repeat!

I renounce...

I renounce marrying her.

You're a witness
to his refusal to marry you?

(IN ENGLISH) Do you testify

that he refuses to marry you?

(IN HEBREW) Yes.

Turn to face him, please.

(IN ENGLISH)
Turn to face him, sweetie.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW) Bend down.

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH)
You have to bend down.

(IN HEBREW) To his feet.

Undo his sandal
with your right hand.

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH) You have to
undo
his sandal with your right hand.

(JOËL SIGHS)

(NATALIE BREATHING HEAVILY)

Are you okay?

RABBI: (IN HEBREW)
Remove the sandal's thongs.

(IN ENGLISH) He said,
undo the sandal.

Please, Natalie.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW) Stand up,
please.

JOËL: (IN ENGLISH) Now, get up.

(IN HEBREW) Spit.

(IN ENGLISH) He says,
um, you have to spit.

(IN HEBREW) More.

More saliva.

(IN ENGLISH) Use more saliva.

RABBI: (IN HEBREW)
All right, gentlemen,

the ceremony is over.

ALL: The sandal has been
removed.

(IN ENGLISH) It's done.

Are you happy now, huh?

She refuses our help.

Well, that's her right.

She needs us. She may be in
denial
but she's the victim.

She was abused by her husband,
and other men, too. Who knows?

Or she wants you to believe
that.

Honestly, I can tell she's
not manipulative.

She says that
they were happy together.

What we need to do is
dig just a little deeper

into what happened in Nice
before they moved here.

Her record came back clean,

and we passed it onto the
Israelis.
We did our job.

Okay. But we can't abandon her.

That girl was abused, maybe
raped.

And there's nothing her family
can do to protect her, either.

You're neither her father,
her lawyer or her shrink.

Look, go home, take a shower,
dress up for tonight.

You're going to meet someone.

She looks just like you.

That same hangdog look as you.

(SCOFFS) I don't have
a hangdog look, come on.

Yeah, you're right.
You're actually Mr. Sunshine.

-(SCOFFS)
-BARBARA: 8:30 p.m., okay?

-MAN: (OVER PHONE)Hello?
-KARIM: Hello, Rachid?

RACHID:Yes.

-Hi, it's Karim.
-How are you?

Good, and you? You still in
Nice?

Yeah, still holding on.

Listen, I need a favor.

Go ahead.

ESTI: (IN HEBREW)
I know your brother

stabbed your husband two years
ago.

I read up on the case.

I know why, too.

I'm not judging him

or you.
Only your husband should be
judged.

I know you never filed a
complaint,

but during questioning,
your brother said

that your husband had

hurt you.

That's why you married him,
right?

What do you want? An
explanation?

To understand
how you marry your rapist?

You won't understand.

On the contrary.

It's twisted, but I understand.

Bedouin matters stay Bedouin.

But your brother rebelled.

He wanted to punish him?

He was right. He succeeded.

Your brother's a decent guy.

He hung up that dress?

Is it linked to what he saw
at the wedding?

No idea,
but I know he didn't hurt the
bride.

ESTI: Mmm-hmm.

Why is he so scared?

Help me.

Why would I?

The culprit mustn't get away.

(SALIM GROANS SOFTLY)

Salim...

(IN ARABIC)
She has some questions for you.

You can trust her.

(COUGHS)

(IN HEBREW) Hello.

How are you?

You saw something that scared
you
in the bathroom?

Is that right?

I saw nothing.

ESTI: So why were you afraid?

I heard.

What did you hear?

A laugh.

ESTI: A laugh?

In the bathroom? Who was it?

A demon.

A demon?

(IN ARABIC) There was a demon.

Cut that out!

(IN HEBREW) He's imagining
things.

You ran because of it?

-No.
-ESTI: Because of strange
sounds?

-I followed her upstairs.
-ESTI: Mmm-hmm.

-I wanted to help her.
-ESTI: Mmm.

I had to turn the lights off.

But then you ran. Why?

The dark scared me.

Because of the demon?

It was punishment.

For that marriage.

It was wrong.

It required punishment.

He said so, too.

Someone said she deserved
to be punished?

(SALIM COUGHS)

The demon?

No.

Someone else.

Outside.

The guy who kicked up
a fuss outside?

You calmed down a guy
who opposed the marriage.

-(SALIM COUGHS)
-Right?

(WEAKLY) He hated the marriage.

ESTI: Who did?

Who was he?

One of the groom's relatives.

With a big white kippa.

PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION

Alexis Péretti
Depressive

MAN:Alexis is
your boyfriend, right?

(CRYING)He was but we split up.

He escaped from the asylum
three weeks ago.

You're not surprised?

He'd do anything
to get people's attention.

Yours, you mean?

Has something happened? What is
it?

No, no, nothing, no.

MAN:Tell me or I can't help
you.

I don't need your help,
just tell me why I'm here.

His family suspects you were
involved in his disappearance.

-Ridiculous.
-They say he was placed there

because of you.

So, he went crazy because of me?

At first, it started with the
raves.

Then you guys got high,
and then you made him overdose.

No way! They're crazy!

-He told them that.
-That's just what they say,
okay?

So, now what?
I killed him and hid the body?

-And you believe them?
-Calm down.

I just have to check.

Do you have something to tell
me?
Do you know something?

Of course not. Listen, I was
in love with him, do you
understand?

I loved him.

I loved him.
