Ladies and gentlemen, I have been working in Dubai for the last 10 years
The welcome I've received during my stay
Makes me feel that I'm in my own country
I would like to thank my wife Val from the bottom of my heart
She speaks Arabic a lot better than I do
I would now like to pass over to her
Thank you everyone, Jack my husband
I know more than anyone that lots of you fear Jack
- Where's the architect Sherif Khayry? - I will call him Mr. Jack
- Hello - Hello Iyad
Go get uncle Sherif and tell him to came to the party immediately
What should I tell him? That Mr. Jack is asking for him, okay
Happy birthday to you
- Thank you for coming to my birthday - My pleasure darling
Darling
Who is it?
- Are you waiting for someone? - No, I'm not expecting anybody
- What do you want Iyad? - What are you doing?
What am I doing? Why the hell are you asking?
- Who's this? - She's my cousin, what do you want?
My father called you they're expecting you at the party
- Tell them I'm not coming - Mr. Jack is asking for you
Fine. I'm on my way, go on
Where are you going? This way
Each time I pass by you I find you celebrating your birthday
Go ahead Iyad, you don't wanna get hurt, now do you?
I'll be back in half an hour don't go anywhere
You're gonna leave?
I'll confiscate this to make sure you stay here when I come back home
Well, I would like to apologize for being late, frankly I wasn't coming
Coz I'm not good at delivering speeches and attending formal occasions
I'm an architect, I'm a machine guy
I love machines, I can't live without them
When I stand in front of a machine, I get totally amazed
I can't stay away from the machines
There is a direct communication link between us
Actually, machines are a totally different thing
I don't know what I'm blubbering
It seems like the machines are in command right now
When the machines take control, they...
Thank you very much indeed
Where's the architect Sherif Kary
The well is about to explode
He has the day off he must be at home
I'll give him a call
- Hello - Hi Iyad
I want you to wake uncle Sherif tell him the well is gonna explode
His car isn't out front, it looks like he's spending the night out
Happy birthday to you
Jack's dressing gown suits you very well
It's the first time I wear somebody else's dressing gown for my birthday
We shoud have gone to my house, it's much better
How? Everybody in the compounds knows who I am
What if somebody sees me?
Besides, I'd rather stay home and take off my clothes in my own bed
Same thing here, it's the first time I get undressed in somebody else's bed
Are you sure Jack isn't gonna change his mind and show up here?
No, that's impossible Sherif he thinks I went shopping
And he's very busy
The sight of him ain't helping much
- You are wonderful - You're so sweet
- Oh Jack - Jack
- It was a bad idea all along - He's coming
- I knew it - He's coming
Get under the bed
- No, no, it is my... - No, get under the bed
Get under the bed
Kiss me my darling, and hold me thight
Tha piece of shit he's cheating on me in my own bed?
- I won't allow this - Please, keep your voice down
Where's your wife?
Don't worry my darling she's gone shopping
I can't stand cheaters Jack is cheating on me?
Why are you so angry? You're doing the same
No, I must catch him red-handed I should confront him
What? confront him like this?
Jack is taking off his pants, it seems like he's having an emotional breakdown
- All guys are the same - The stupid son of a bitch
- The socks - I will take it
Please I beg you
Yeas what? What are you saying?
- Call Abu Iyad - The well is about to explode
I'm on my way
- What's wrong? - I've got to go
- Don't tell me you have to go - I have to go my darling
He's so romantic, still kissing her
See you later
You dirty prostitute, I'll cut you to pieces
Easy, easy, easy, cool girls, cool, cool
Jack is really an idiot
Who'd leave such a beauty to be with another similar beauty?
- She's a whore - Show some respect
She's your guest after all
- Show some respect - Get out of here
You whore
- Hand it over - Here you go
A calculator
- Raise it to 14 - Yes sir
Thank you Sherif, you are very clever you saved us from a real disater
Thank you boss thank you very much indeed
It's nothing really
Excuse me boss
Mahmud, Abu Iyad
What's wrong?
My legs couldn't go any further, I was a bit tired
- Where have you been? - I was in a terrible mess
With some chick indeed
You're gonna land yourself in a fine mess
Get a grip on yourself man
The boss wanna investigate the accident
You do your investigation I'm going home coz it's my day off
- Would you pick up Iyad from school? - You know...
Sherif, Iyad loves you very much
- You're the one who taught him Arabic - Fine, fine
Yes Val, no I've sworn not to got to other people's houses
I told you to come to my house we'll be much comfortable there
Listen, I have a night shift tomorrow
Come to me in the early morning I'll leave you the key under the doormat
I have to go somewhere and I'll see you when I get back home
I wanna see you under the bed
- I mean on the bed - Uncle Sherif
Okay, goodbye, what is it Iyad?
A citizen who defends his country is considered a terrorist?
I don't quite get your point who told you so?
Miss Ann put me in the corner and told me not to wear this ever again
- Who? - Miss Ann?
- Is she beautiful? - Beautiful?
What's that got to do with what I'm saying?
If she's beautiful I can have a word with her
There she is, leaving right now
Where's your miss?
We could have gotten killed
Gentlemen, I would like to take this opportunity
To thank Sherif Kary for all of his hard work
I've decided to promote him to company man
Show hands please gentlement
- You're gonna promote him? - Yes
Where's Sherif Kary?
He doesn't know yet he had night shift yesterday
Let me tell him about it
See? I told you my house is much safer
Mr. Jack can't pay us any surprise visits here
You have your own key and you may come any time
I won't leave you again
I won't leave you again
Your husband puts his signature on...
No, Jack buys women underwear from Paris
He always buys a special order for me and puts on it his initials JJ
Jack is a really cool guy
He makes a special order from Paris and signs his name on the...
Jack really deserves all the credit
Who's there?
- Who's there? - Mr. Jack is asking for you, uncle Sherif
Jack is with you?
No, dad called to tell you that Mr. Jack is asking for you
- I'll be right out - I'm waiting for you
Okay
- What's wrong? - Your husband is waiting for me
- For what? - It looks like something urgent
God help us, quick get dressed and get out of here
You had another birthday tonight too?
- I'm coming with you - Where to? I'm going to work
Dad told me, come with uncle Sherif coz we're having lunch at work
- That's all he said? - Yes
- You haven't said a word all the way - You too
Uncle Sherif, I wanna go back to my homeland
- This is your home too - No, my home is where I was born
I wanna go to Palestine, my homeland
You were just born there and came here as a small baby
You've only seen your homeland on TV
You can come back when all conflicts are settled
We've had enough with their resolutions
- 242, 538 - There are indeed plenty channels
I've got around 700 channel on the satellite TV
Have you heard the latest statements of Kofi Anan?
Who's Anan?
- You seem from outer space, man - I don't get involved in politics
Don't mess with my head
Javier Solana said the problem can't be solved
- Who is this? - Javier Solana
Yeah, he's a football player in Real Madrid team, rigth?
Javier Solana is a Real Madrid football player?
- You're unbelievable, man - Cut it out. I've got enough worries already
You're putting me to the test or what? What the hell do you want from me?
- I wanna take part in the Intifada? - What are you sayng, lad?
You're leading a great life here with your dad going to the best school in the country
and you wanna go back there? There's nothing useful there
I want you to speak with him, he listens to you
You remind me of your dad when we both were at the architecture faculty in Egypt
We was just like you but then he got caught up with life and earning a living
What about you uncle Sherif? You've been living out of Egypt for how long?
I don't quite remember around 22 to 25 years
How could you spend all this time far from your homeland?
Listen Iyad, I have no parents no brothers, no sisters
no devilish son like you to take care of
- Didn't you have any friends? - Sure I did
when we first arrived here, we stayed in touch, writing to each other
Soon the letters became much lesser until I completely lost contact with them
- What it is? - You're always unavailable, man
Get in, he's waiting for you
Don't you know what does he want from me?
- Go on in - God help me
- Good evening boss - Good evening Sherif, have a seat
- How are you sir? - I'm fine, thank you
- Sherif - Yes sir
I appreciate the great effort you're deploying in my country
- My effort? - You're gonna be head of the architects
Thank you sir, thank you
- Let's have some Champaign Sherif - Champaign yes
Oh champaign
Oh shit
- Easy, easy, easy - Oh God
Oh God
We must preserve all family links
- I got sacked - We've found plenty of jobs to do
never mind, man
It's not like I raped her it wasn't against her will
That's what she wanted
No, I'm going back to Egypt
I have a flat there that's been unoccupied for 20 years
Yeah, what are you saying?
What? Fine, say hello to Iyad
- I'm gonna miss that little devil, take care - Uncle Sherif, uncle Sherif
Holy shit, what brought you'here?
- I came to bid you farewell - I'm gonna miss you like hell, lad
why don't you leave your dad here and come with me?
- You're so lucky? - Lucky that I got sacked
and am going back home to earn a living?
But you're going back to your home country
- I'd love to go back home too - Hopefully, you will
I'll see you later, you can count on it
- You are so sweet - Thank you
Where are you from?
- Singapore - Singaporean, Singaporean?
I have a good feeling about this trip, it's gona be a smooth trip
- You speak Arabic? - A little bit
A little bit?
- How long will you stay in Cairo? - Just one night
That's all we need, just one night
- What? - What is your name?
- Oshin - Oshin
- My name is Sherif, call me Sheri - Okay, Sheri
Sheri... Oshin
Today is my birthday, you know?
- Really? - Yeah
- Happy birthday - Thank you very much
I'd love to celebrate it with you doday
Here is my address and phone number
- I will come - I'll be waiting for you
It'll sure be smooth everything's going just fine
Welcome home Mr. Sherif
There's nothing illegal sir but these...
You're absolutely sure he's coming from the Emirates?
Yes sir
What would he bring with him if he'd been to France?
You can get you luggage, Mr. Sherif
Here you go sir, here you go here you go, here you go
- Come on in Mr. Sherif - Take me straight home
- What is it? - Who knows sir?
Open it
Take care sir
Welcome, welcome Mr. Sherif
We're so glad to see you
- What is it? Is anything wrong? - Capitain Tarek El Abbassy
I'm keeping watch over the region here, sir
- What for? - Well you know
there are lots of eminent personalities living here
With all the public uprisings going on... students, University, demonstrations
We don't want them to cause us any trouble
I'm afraid I didn't get your point
I've got lots of visits from close friends
- I don't want any scandals, you know? - Of course not sir
We'll take good care of your visitors
I'm having some visitors late at night from Sigapore
- Where from sir? - Singapore
- A Singaporean friend - No problem sir
Can you give us her personal data to issue an entry permit for her?
- A permit to enter my house? - It's just a simple formality sir
Yeah, her name is Oshin she's got some narrow eyes
Oshin, with narrow eyes
- What's her full name sir? - Oshin Shokuku Oshushu
Oshin Shokuku Oshushu
- What's the aim of her visit? - Excuse me?
What the aim of her visit?
Strengthening the Egyptian-Singaporean relations
- Her address in Singapore? - Behind the gas station
You're gonna carry on a similar investigation for each of my visitors?
Excuse us sir it's only to keep us informed, you may go on sir
Why is this building so quiet?
I don't hear any noise
Who are you supposed to protect?
Yeah, that's the reason
- Good morning - Good morning ambassador
Israeli Embassy
Let him come in
Wait until I find a way out of this deep shit I'm in
It's a complete disater
I came all the way here to get some rest in my flat
Only to find such trouble makers living next door? I've got enough to worry about
What if somebody tried to get rid of them or something?
And I'm living right next door what would I get from that?
You're with me or what?
- What's wrong with you Mr. Sherif? - Mr. Sherif?
Everybody knows my name around here?
Calm down Mr. Sherif
I Know it was a big surprise but think straight and keep it cool
What's wrong with that? They are just your neighbors
What neighbors? They're Israelis, Israelis
- What the hell are you? - It's the headquarters of the Israeli embassy
I know, that's why everybody left this building
Everybody left in a haste
- Why are you still living here? - Where would I go?
- I would never leave - Listen
Since you're the only resident that didn't flee we can watch each other's back
we shall have not even speak with these people
nothing but Good mornings no relation whatsoever with the neighbor
Even better if we don't tell them, good mornng
Who do I have the pleasure to speak with?
David Kohin, the Israeli ambasssador
I know it's a surprise Mr. Sherif
But you must know that you're gonna live in total peace here
And in this building, you'll be much safer than any other palce in the country
Mr. Sherif, we'll carry your luggage right away
Excuse us, the guys were havign lunch
Don't bring down my luggage I'll be leaving soon
- Why? What's wrong Mr. Sherif? - Do as I'm telling you
Don't even move my luggage
It's very good
I've been working on a drug dealer case give me something to calm my nerves
If you're that competent
You wouldn't have been working on my alimony for 7 years new
My wife stripped me of every penny I had
If we were still married it would have been less costly
Marriage is an unsuccessful social system
It requires a revolution like the July revolution
The main problem consists of the society it's a completely corrupted society
Tell him to can it, Hussein we don't want any other principles tonight
What's wrong? What are you afraid of?
Who dares to knock on the door of Helmy the lawyer
I'd deal with them whoever they are
Yes?
- Sherif Khayry? - Hey Darsh, how are you doing Mostafa?
- How are you doing Sherif? - Hussein
- How are you doing? - How are you doing pal?
Fine, thank you
- It seems he didn't recognize me - I'm either high or very much awaken
- Come on in, come on in - Zakaria
You buggers, when I left you 25 years ago, you were sitting just like now
I came back after all the time to see that nothing actually changed
Give my man Sherif Khayry the best hookah
What a bunch of hookahs! You're having a hookah uprising, right?
Long time no see, Sherif
Tell us, we were told that you were leading a great life in the Emirates
- What brought you back? - Val?
- Who's Val? - The manager's wife
- You got caught with her? - No, not quite so
He caught something with me that belongs to her
- What about you Hussein? - Still the same
I'm a veterinary in the Ministry of Agriculture
- I'm divorced and quite penniless - You deserve it
you shouldn't have gotten married, man
- What about you Darsh? - I'm a journalist in "No Newspaper"
- What newspaper? - No
It's a newspaper that finds fault with everything
- What bout you Sherif? - I found myself in a terrible disaster
- Since I came here - A terrible disaster?
It seems like a good case to work on, spit it out, spit it out
- An embassy in the building - What?
An embassy in the building and the ambassador in the elevator
Take it easy on him Mustafa he's already had enough
You think I'm high?
I'm telling you the embassy is in my building, right next door
- What embassy? - Of Israel
- What? - Israel
You're living next to the Israeli embassy
and you've got the balls to say it?
- How coul you say it? - The last thing I need now is you, Mustafa
I don't know how to live in this building
On my way in I got thorughly questioned
Where from and where to?
And on my way out I find a special task force
I don't even dare to get into the bathroom lest I should find somebody in there
- What are you gonna do about it, Sherif? - I'm too scared to sleep in that flat
I don't know what to do
why don't you get rid of it, try to sell it
- I would love to, get me a customer - Piece of cake
There's a broker from Dumyat who's ready to buy any property on the Nile
You'd better give him a cheap price to sell it
- And buy a nice flat next to us - No problem
Hello
Oshin, how are you?
Where are you calling from? Which hotel?
Stay right there, I'm coming it'll be a warm night
- You'd sell your friends so cheap? - No nagging
I'm so sorry sir, you can't get up, it's forbidden
Forbidden? I have an appointment with her
It's the hotel's regulations
What regulations? Each hotel will make his own regulations?
- Why are you shouting sir? - What's the problem?
No problem, hello Oshin
Where to sir?
You gave me your flat address, right?
Why don't we go there? I have only 3 hours left
That's a good idea, go straight to the zoo
Where did they go?
Nobody here, that's good
- What the hell is going on here? - A goal for Egypt
- Who's the other team? - I don't know
Mr. Sherif
- Yes - It's about Singapore
I'm going home, to my own flat
there's no rule whatsoever that forbids me to receive visitors
- It's a question of personal freedom - I totally agree
- But it's just a matter of procedures - I already told you she's coming
- That's right sir, her permit is ready - Good
When you left and told us not to take up the luggage
- We canceled the permit - What are you talking about?
- We're going up whatever you say - Listen Mr. Sherif
you can take her to the coast road
Eat some corns, lupine and potatoes
Until the permit is ready
What potatoes man? She's not here to have some potatoes
Her plane leaves in two hours
- We don't have any time to waste - One second
Yes sir, Mr. Sherif is here with a Singaporean girl
- What's wrong? - No problem
What's your orders sir? Roger that sir
Can she leave her passport here?
- Leave your passport here, Oshin - Okay
Can you send us some underwear and my pajama from my bags?
No, these bags must remain here for safety procedures
I'll send them with the luggage later on
My passport please
Thank you
I'm so tired of working here sir I wanna be transfered to tourist police
No knives, no forks, no spoons where are the cutlery of this house?
- Hello - Is this the baker El Do'i?
- Can I ask you a favor? - Sure sir
I would like to have a shrimp and meat pie
- You want 2 pies? - No, just one pie with both ingredients
- I'd like some roe on it, please - Right away sir
- What's the address sir? - 14 A, Demaly street
Yes, the Israeli embassy building
So sorry sir, your order is unavailable right now
- What is it guys? I'm going out - It's forbidden
- You can't get out before 5 o'clock - What do you mean?
I'm a prisoner in my own house? I'm getting out right now
You can't, there's a meeting in the Embassy, it's a state of emergency
I don't give a shit about the embassy and its meetings
- I'm getting out, you can try to stop me - Sir, don't make me do it the hard way
You're gonna hit me? I'm getting gout right now
You can't, our job is to protect you too
I don't need your protection and I'm getting out
What's wrong Mr. Sherif?
I don't know why you're so high-strung?
How could you insult the safety guards?
They're here to protect you it's a normal situation
How can you call this a normal situation, Mr. Rashed?
I can't eat, nor drink nor take a bath, nor even sleep
I'm forbidden to get out and in as I please
I can't live like this
Listen Mr. Sherif, you've barely spent a day in your flat
Eventually you'll get to know them better and vice versa
What do you mean sir?
What you said to the ambassador in the elevator is totally unacceptable
I thought you were much more broad-minded
You were irritated and used some insulting expressions
To hell with them, damn day and something like it
Listen Sherif, we signed a peace treaty with these people
We have some diplomatic relations with them
This is your country's policy
Although some people or most of them think differently
This is the Nation's Supreme Interest
Would you like to go against the Nation's Supreme Interest?
No sir, I'm not against the Nation's Supreme Interest
But you must not act against my own inferior interest
Egypt is our beloved country, Sherif
It's the biggest country in the region
Being big is a huge problem
You have to take all your behaviors into consideration
We were destined to go to war and that's what we did
We liberated Sinai and took back Thebes
And we imposed the peace process
I'm not asking you to give them a warm welcome hug
I received a note saying that you frowned at the Israeli ambassador
Which made him in poor spirits all day long
We don't wanna receive any more complaints
Mind your own business Sherif
Live your life and try to adapt yourself to the current situation
If you need anything, give me a call
Sir, I have lots of friends
And sometimes, they pass by to spend a couple of nights with me
This terrible state I'm in will only make them turn tail
For instance, I have a respected dear friend from Singapore
Oshin
Don't you trouble yourself
You just lead a normal life
Whatever you need, just give me a call and I'll come to you in a flash
How could you remain silent?
Why didn't you say anything man? What happened to the cause, Sherif?
How could you? What happened to your principles, to your dignity?
- You tell him, when I gouge your eyes out - You wanna gouge my eyes out?
Let me continue
When I gouge your eyes out and replace them with two gems
would you see? These things are not negotiable, you tell him that
You want me to tell the officer I'll gouge your eyes out?
You wanna put me in a fix or what?
Just keep silent and let's see how to get rid of this flat
Fine, fine, the guy is on his way here
We made a deal and he's coming with a down payment
- Nice - What have we done, guys?
Sherif is out but another one is living in his flat
This is totally wrong, man
This must be him
Where to? You stay here or else you'll screw it all
We don't wanna gouge anybody's eyes out
- Good evening - Good evening Hajji Sayed, come on in
this is Mr. Sherif Khayry my oldest and best friend
this is Hajji Sayed El Domyati the most eminent dignitary in Dumyat
come on in, you're most welcome
brought you to my house coz there's no need to go to the office
- It's just a favor for my closest dear friend - We're all friends here, Mr. Rateb
- Tell me, how big is this flat? - It's a 300 meter flat
here's is the contract, it's registered too
300 meter all in all with skylights and balconies
I gave you the contract check it out for yourself
- How much do you want for it? - We already told hajji
We want one and half for it
Mr. Rateb, that's what you said on the phone
I'm gonna pay for it in cash you'd better give me a better price
Well said, hajji
This is the man who's gonna live there and make their lives a living hell
Where's this flat located?
- It's four blocks away - Four blocks? I know this place very well
- I bought a shop in there - The building with the other dwellers
What other dwellers?
- The Embassy, the Embassy - The Israeli Embassy
- What's wrong, hajji? - It's not even worth a penny, see you later
Yes Abu Iyad, do me a favor I wanna go back to work
I'll do my best, Sherif
Iyad sends you a kiss
Hello, how are you doing uncle Sherif?
- Hi Iyad, how are you? - I miss you, I love you very much
I miss you too, you're still thinking about leaving the Emirates?
Don't go anywhere, I'm coming back
See you later
Mr. Sherif
You're all alone today
- You brought nothing with you? - Something like what?
Something made in Taiwan Thailand or something
Hello, yes Mr. Rashed
This is too much, it's really too much
Fine sir
Thank you very much, see you later
- Hello - Hello
This is the El Do'i bakery sir
I'm gonna send you a delicious shrimp and lobster pie garnished with pineapple
No, thanks man, I'll call you if I'd like to have anything
A 3 meter table, with plenty dishes of all shapes and colors
Turkeys, shrimps, and pigeons
- Where can we find this table? In a dream? - No, in my flat
- Actually, it's my birthday - No kidding
I hate to celebrate it and blow the candles all alone
- Ain't a pity? - Stop, I beg you, I'm on the verge of tears
The flat is not far from here
Stop beating around the bush what system do you follow?
Whatever you like
- 500 pounds - How much?
- 500 pounds - I left Egypt for too long
Things have gone bonkers in this country
The last time I was here it was only for 5 pounds
Knock it off man just take it or leave it
I don't have Egyptian currency do you take dirhams?
- Fine then, it's 500 dirhams - That means 1000 pounds
What's the big deal? It's your birthday, isn't it?
Don't drive such a hard bargain I'm a customer, a consumer
Let me but a season ticket and I'll pay you every 3 months
Let's go baby
Why is this building so tightly secured? You're a minister or what?
- They proposed to me but I refused - Much better
Good evening sir
- Good evening Mr. Tarek - Go on sir
- You don't want her passport - Of course not
Your visitors are welcome any time
- She's spending the night over? - Yes
- Singaporean too? - No, national
I like to encourage the national industry
I wanna be transfered to Vice Squad sir
- A rocket - You're overreacting
Why? What is it?
- Who's this? - What's your status?
The embassy had been bombed with a rocket that mistakenly hit Mr. Sherif's flat, sir
- He's hurt? - No, he's okay sir
He's very strong with nerves of steel
It made a 1.15 m hole in the wall
- How come? - No, the rocket, not Mr. Sherif
- Which embassy? - The Israeli embassy
- You're living next to the Israeli embassy? - Yes
Yes, yes, and why the hell haven't you told me about that, you filthy traitor?
How could you bring me next to the Israeli embassy, you scumbag
Shame on you
Here you go, here you go you can have your money back
You don't even deserve to be an Egyptian citizen
You're gonna pay for it you traitor
Dear lord, help me
She got so patriotic all of a sudden, started to insult me
and threw the money in my face
Look Sherif, although she's a prostitute, she has her own principles
After all, she refused what you agreed to do
Where the hell do you want me to go?
You won't go anywhere Sherif
You'll remain in your flat and I'll throw them out
You wanna throw them out?
I hired him to throw my wife out but she eventually kicked me out
How will you throw them out?
Via the right of common consent with the neighbor
What right?
The right of common consent with the neighbor
you're physically and morally damaged from your neighbors
This rocket is a tangible proof
I can file a lawsuit and I'm convinced that I'll win
most importantly, we must go shoot your wrecked flat
and enclose the photos with the file, okay?
Shoot everything and show what happened
these chairs were flying all around the place
the tables were all wrecked everything was turned upside down
All glass went shattering everything was wrecked
It was like an 8 Richter earthquake
The rocket made this huge hole here
They broke into my flat while I was in the bedroom with the chick
It was a big hole
- What is it? Whose flat is this? - What hole? Where's the hole?
You're having visions, man?
Where's the rocket you're talking about?
What visions? This flat was a total wreck
That's okay Sherif, you'd better keep yourself warm at night from now no
What are you talking about, man? I haven't gone bonkers yet
the chick that was with me saw it all
- What are you shooting? - The rockets
Yes Mr. Rashed?
It's you
When did you have the time to clean up the palce?
Thank you so much sir, see you later
The government cleaned the place up they removed the assault's tracks
Enough with embassies and rockets
- Let's have a drink - I'm ready
- Let's continue - Very nice
- I'd like to have some tea, Sherif - Tea?
Yes sir, could you send us 4 cups of mint tea?
Yes, with some sugar too
Would you please send us a glass of rice and milk too?
With bananas and some mixed nuts
- I want a Ashura dessert? - What?
- I'd like to have a Ashura sweets - One plate of Ashura sweets please sir
A sweetsop plate
Would you please send us some sweetsop too?
- You're writing them down, sir? - I want some stuffed meat

Fine, thank you sir you want anything else, guys?
- Some tobacco - We'd like to have some tobacco too sir
Yes, yes
What?
No, we have some sir
We have enough
- Everything's fine, sir? - What?
- Everything's fine? - Yeah
Have a nice night
How could you leave such a nice flat on the Nile, Sherif?
You have government officials as your own servants
Can it, man
What? Who the hell do you think I am, a stupid student?
Just keep your mouth shut, they record everything we say on tapes
I don't fear them
I hate Israel and I'm not scared to say it before the whole world
I'm against the Israeli the Israeli slogans
Enough with your shiny principles, man
Via the law, we'll claim our rights via the law
What law man? This world knows no laws
did this law of yours get me what my divorced wife took from me
I'm not having fun anymore get the hell out of here, get out
Until when we'll keep our voice down, scard to reveal our opinions?
We must wake up, guys
Wake up, we're not getting high to wake up, are we?
You're right, you're absolutely right
I wanna forget it all
It's been 2 years, Sherif
I haven't seen my kids for 2 years
You're gonna see them
Yes sir
no, everything's just fine
I have another favor to ask you
no, I don't want some Nescafe it's a totally different thing
I have a friend named Hussein Abdel Ghafur, he's a veterinay
you know him?
I'd like him to get back to his wife and kids
thank you sir, thanks
the government will see to it
you're kidding me Sherif you're the last thing I need
Yes Tahany, you're back home? You brought the kids with you?
I miss you like hell, Tahany, I'm on my way
I hate Israel, I hate Israel, I hate Israel
I hate Israel
I hate Israel and admits it before the whole world
I don't care if I got killed or even got thrown in jail
I don't care if I got killed
I don't care if I got killed
I don't care if I got killed
I don't care if I got killed or even got thrown in jail
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization

We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, not at all
Where the hell are you going, man?
I'm just going home to take a warm bath and freshen up a bit
What are you saying, man? Put me down, put me down
- Where are you going? - I wanna go back to the demonstration
It's not like they'll get lost without you, come back here
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
Have a drink
What has a sweet beautiful girl like you to do with a bunch of street rats?
- Thank you so much - You're welcome
I still don't know your name
Dhalia Shuhdy from the Left Progressive Movement
- Sherif Khayry from Gizah - Nice meeting you
What do you do for a living?
I'm a professor in the faculty of political and economical science
I'm a petroleum engineer pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet me?
It's the worst day in the Egyptian history, Mr.
- And you're pleased? - I'm terribly annoyed
this is the worst day of life, having just met you
Come here, where to?
Why is it the worst day in Egyptian history?
- What happened? - You're asking me?
You don't know what happened?
Will you take it easy and tell me what happened?
- The Israeli ambassador - David? What has he done this time?
He and the commercial attaché, signed the commercial convention with us
it's a forced normalization
- What's this word you just used? - Normalization
- What does it mean? - What is it that you don't understand?
What does the forced normalization mean?
I'm sorry
This normalization is a great thing
I'm so sorry, but the officers were gonna arrest me
- What? - I thought he's... nothing at all
- When can I see you again? - Late at night
8 o'clock in front of Group, see you
This is the right thing to do
- Let's go - Where to?
Let me worry about that
- Leave it all to me - I'm all yours
- This is an insult for all nations - What's this?
- Where are we? - Just come with me
It's not just an insult, it's a disgrace
It's a euphemism to call what's going on in the entire region an insult
Even if we call it a disgrace, we can't fully express what's happened to us
This is called contempt
We won't accept any underestimation of our sufferings
It's a degradation a degradation, a degradation
We won't give up we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We're gonna stick to our stance whatever happens
We're against this situation
Despite their enticements and their threats
The struggling flame will remain ablaze whthin each one of us
They won't muzzle our mouths
We will keep on saying it overtly
Sign as much conventions as you like
Defile our lands as much as you like
But our heads will always remain high
You can't stain our blood
We...
We must boycott this goods totally and completely
I hate Israel and admits it before the whole world
I don't care if I got killed or even got thrown in jail
- I hate Israel - And admits it before the whole world
- I don't care if I got killed - Or even got thrown in jail

Well done Mr. Sherif

I was moved too since I saw you in the funeral

but be sure that one day all our demands will be fulfilled
I can't wiat this long

- About what? - I heard your flat is for sale
and we'd like to have it
- Who told you so? - It doesn't matter
You fix a price and we'll pay it
- How much will you pay? - How big is it?
- It's a 300 meter flat - All in all with skylights and balconies?
You know Hajji Sayed?
- Anyway? It won't be a problem? - Sure it will
This flat used to be my parents'
To you, its value is measured in meters
To me, it's measured in past memories
if I sold, it'll be a disgrace, a shame
it'll be a degradation and contempt
Welcome Mr. Sherif
It's the wrong beginning spare me the formalities
- I could change my mind and leave - Come on in, Sherif
Everybody, this is Sherif Khayry
Welcome Mr. Sherif come on in Mr. Sherif
Mr. Sherif Khayry is a militant in our Party
Dr. Shuhdy Sleiman Shuhdy is my uncle

Dr. Farida Omran, my uncle's wife
- Pleased to meet you Ma'am - Holder of a Linnon star

Sherif Khayry, gas boy
- Excuse me? - I'm a petroleum engineer
Welcome sir, go get some ice, Dhalia
Why don't you sit here? It's much more comfortable
- Have a seat - Have a seat
Wow, you've get endless rows of books here
I see books everywhere it's nice to be well-educated
- What book are you reading? - Love in Cholera times
- In cholera times - By Gabriel Garcia Marquis
I read lots of books dealing with energy and geology back in the nick
It was an opportunity to get acquainted with this world
- You were int the nick? - I spent half my life in the nick
It was an opportunity to get acquainted with this world
- You were in the nick? - I spent half my life in the nick
Surely you wife took on the responsibility when you were in the nick
- I was in jail too - This whole family has done time
You were in jail too or were you raised in an orphanange?
I raised my kids to act upon their own beliefs
We were born to object quoting from Maxim Gorgy
Soda or water
I'm afraid to choose or else you might object
- You're the spitting image of your father? - My father?
- This is Carl Marx - Dhalia loves Guevara
And Nader loves Marx
Dhalia loves Guevara and Nader loves Marx
I love the national militant Shaaban Abd Elrehim
You're right Mr. Sherif
We're facing a cultural degradation
Our society is been with an intellectual trance
I can't let you serve it yourself
We're a socialist house we help each other
- You're most welcome - Thank you sir
I don't think I had the pleasure
This is the comrade nanny Um Attiyat, the maid
The maid?
The comrade nanny Um Attiyat was with me in the nick
For defending the same cause she got out before me and raised my kids
The comrade nanny Um Attiyat is self-educated
She's an expert in Russian literature
A living pattern of the Proletariat
My dad was a worker and my mom was a worker
They both died in the Workers' demonstration
- Organized by the communist party - Frankly, I take pride in knowing all of you
But I'd like to say something
We went through
After going through the government went down
Thus the people went down too but some weren't affected
Both kinds of people lived in a some kind of frustration
When... will you put your leg away, you're killing me
It stinks man, that's unbearable
Your leg has long been dead I'm sure you can't feel it anymore
I guess I have the right to object on this rotten leg
I've always told him so
You're always been in jail, when did you have the time to tell him?
- Is Dhalia Shuhdy here? - How can I help you?
- What is it? - Where is Dhalia Shuhdy?
I'm Dhalia Shuhdy
- We have an arrest warrant against you - Would you show it to me first?
- What warrant? She's accused of what? - None of your business
- I'll pack your bag, Dhalia - And I'll ask the Party to get you a lawyer
- Come with us - It's not right to trat her like this
- She's an educated person - I'm so sorry Sherif
- I wanted to stay with you - Come with me
Have a seat Mr. Sherif let's go on with the conversation
What were we saying?
Aren't you gonna pack her bag?
There will be investigations as well as the public prosecution first
- Pour me a glass, Shuhdy - Me too Dr. Shuhdy
Just because you're attracted to a beautiful lady
Doesn't give you the right to take part in demonstrations
And attend meetings and give speeches
What's going on Sherif?
We already met here and came to an agreement, didn't we?
What happened?
Mr. Rashed, I want Dhalia out of the nick
You fell for her so fast?
What has she done to be arrested like this?
Sherif Khayry is showing interest in politics
I'm not involved whatsoever in politics
I did everything you asked and this is my only demand
Fine the Sherif very well, she'll be released
But you'd better tell her to seize her activities completely
You know Sherif? If only everybody would mind his own business just like you
This country would be just fine
I'll tell her, I'll tell her that Rashid
I didn't wanna bother you, Sherif
But you've arisen my suspicions I'm starting to think you're a cop
I'm no cop, that's for sure
- Can we go some place to talk? - Of course
I want you to eat to your heart's content
You haven't eaten anything since you got arrested
Dhalia, why don't you seize these political activities of yours?
You're a beautiful girl
You could save yourself all this trouble any guy would die to win your heart
Why don't you get married have a boyfriend?
- Live your life - This is the life I choose, Sherif
I already had one marriage experience, we have to get a divorce
- Whe did you get divorced? - Coz he was a cheater
That's typical to all men, they're scumbags, not trustworthy at all
- You caught him with another woman? - If only
Then you caught him with a man?
If only
- Then how did you know he's a cheater - He lied to me
- You know who was his aunt's husband? - Who? Menahem Begin?
He has a tourism agency
I found out he enterd groups of Israelis in the country
That filthy traitor
But sometimes, due to certain circumstances
We found ourselves forced to accept a situation that we're not satisfied with
What circumstances?
No circumstances would force a man to give away his principles
Yeah but...
Well, in my case for instance I came from the Emirates
And found myself living next door to the Israeli Embassy
- What? - They moved to live there
- I already had that flat - You're living next to the embassy?
Right next door?
You see them and they see you
Each and every morning you say hello to each other
So that's it
Now I knew why I got released so quickly
You're a spy and a traitor
- Wait, let me explain - Let go off my hand
I don't ever wanna see you again
What?
This is not the case of Sherif Khayry
It's the case of the whole nation
Your honor, based on the regulation of mutual consent with the neighbor
Every citizen has the right to live happily in his own house
And Sherif Khayry is a good citizen
He spent his whole life in the Gulf
Working hard, and toiling
Saving each dirham he earns
To come back to his homeland and take some time off
And lead a happy life
Only to find what?
Only to find himself besieged by the Israeli embassy
He can only get out and into his house on specific times
He can't order food, or even take a bath
What a miserable life is my client leading?
Take a look at Sherif Khayry
You can see how affected he seems
His spirits have sunk
Your honor, allow me to express my opinion
I'm the wronged party, I'm the plaintiff
And I'd like to speak for myself
- You may speak - Your honor, I don't know what to say
But I know you perfectly get my point
My client was sitting all alone at home
Watchig the 7:15 sitcom just like any other Egyptian citizen
All of a sudden, a rocket blew up in his own house
What kind of safety is this your honor?
I strongly urge you to expel the Israeli embassy
From the flat next to my client's
I also urge you to make up for his losses
With an approximate amount of 5 million dollars
Given the material losses that he incurred
Thank you your honor
What the hell is this Rateb? You're a non-believer
We're gonna win the case, don't worry I managed to build a solid case
Let the defendant's lawyer approach
Holy shit, all of them are the embassy's lawyers
If each of them just coughed up I'll be sentenced to death
The case that's shook the public opinion, is still in the hands of the court
Sherif Khayry who stood against the Israeli embassy in Cairo
Resorted to the court of justice to claim his stolen right
As you can see behind me
there are hundreds of people, who gathered in front of the court of justice
to receive Sherif Khayry
who became a real role model supported by milions of people
You were with Ahmed El Kasem El Munira TV staion, Cairo
Mr. Sherif, were you somehow scared or reluctant
before bringing a lawsuit against the Israeli embassy?
I never had a second thought
and I would never ever leave my house whatever happens
Did they really offer to buy your flat?
They offered me milions of dollars in return for my flat
but I refused
Yes I refused
and shall never change my opinion, nor trade my country
Either me or the embassy in that building
Either me or the embassy in that building
Either me or the embassy in that building
Either me or the embassy in that building
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against normalization
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against adjustments
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against adjustments
We won't give up, we won't sell our land we're against adjustments

Sherif Khayry on the front page?
Who's this Sherif Khayry you're making a fuss about?
Sherif Khayry sir, I knew him 30 years ago
He spent his whole life fighting for his country
I suggest we have an exclusive interview with him
It's him, it's him sir
- Hello - Yeah Mustafa
Where are you? Why don't you come on over with Hussein?
We fixed the best hookah ever, it's called Sharon
- Come on over - I'll be there in a flash
He's a fighter, a strong fighter sir
And Israel and this fake peace she's trying to promote is a pack of lies
This man is a great speaker
Nobody's in a state of war against Israel
- We must take notice of that - This man is a great speaker
Dot your i's and cross your t's before we move to the roofing
- Dot your i's... - This woman is a great speaker too
Hand it over
Lieutenant
You're most welcome Mr. Rashed but what's this surprise visit?
- I say you on TV yesterday Sherif - You heard what a nice speech I gave?
Sure thing, I wonder who taught you to speak so?
- What do you mean Mr. Rashed? - I want you to make up and concentrate
Don't be fooled by the current events
Don't let the people fool you and make you think you're a real hero
Beware Sherif
Beware not to get carried away with this nonsense
You really brought a lawsuit against the embassy
Which is your legal right
But that doesn't change anything with our agreement
Keep your relation with them within the agreed boundaries
Within the allowed frames, Sherif
Sherif, I'm so sorry I questioned your patriotism before
But we're going through some hard times affecting the entire nation
but we must stick together
Coz we our destiny is the same and our goal is mutual
Dhalia we're gonna spend our days and nights talking about this?
Since I met you, I long to be with you, just the two of us
To get close and personal
You're trying to give me a hint about something, Sherif?
I'm not dropping hints
There's more to life than politics and demonstrations
It's a beautiful life and we must enjoy it
For instance, I'm a single solitary man and you're a beautiful lady
Yeah
You want me to go home with you Sherif?
No, no, no
Don't start getting ideas
Today is my birthday and I wanted to be a surprise
I'm so sorry Sherif, happy birthday
I've always celebrated my birthday all alone
And I'd love to celebrate it with you today
It'll be my peasure
Hey man
I'm sorry I broke the sign I was a bit distracted
And why not? You're Egypt's hero you may break whatever you like
God bless Mr. Sherif to bring disgrace on them
Either me or the embassy in that building
Leave the socialism books in sight I want him to see it as soon as he gets in
- I want these books back, do you hear? - I said I'll bring them back
I'll use them and bring them back
Come with me, come on
- Give me the other one - Here you go
This one is...
- Who did you say this was? - Mao
- Who is it? - Mao Tse-Tong
Founder of the socialism in China
- What about this one? - It's Lenin
They used to work together, right?
Lenin is the leader of the Bolshevik revolution
Yes of course, give it to me
Go now coz I'm expecting visitors, go on Mustafa
Sherif Khayry, the symbol of resistance
- Hello - How are you doing uncle Sherif?
How are you doing Iyad? How are you doing? I miss you so
- Where are you calling from? - I'm calling from Palestine

I saw you on TV and told everybody you're my friend
You know about my case?

You're a good boy

Hey Iyad, I love you boy
- I love you so - Me too, uncle Sherif
- Take care - Okay, you too
- Dhalia - Come on in, uncle
- Your uncle is here? - Come on in
They insisted on celebrating your birthday with us
It's an insult it's a great insult for Egypt
to search us in our own country as thoroughly as they did
it's a setback Mr. Sherif
they stripped us of Mao they stripped us of Mao downstairs
Come on in, come on in
- This is rigorous demagogy - Yeah
What did he just say? I think he received a strong blow on the head
Come on in, I'll go get changed and will be right out
What does demagogy mean?
- You're most welcome - Mr. Sherif
- Yes dear - This is your birthday gift
- What's this? - The City of Beasts
Thank you, it's so nice of you
- Where is comrade Um Attiyat? - She's got a party meeting

We met before, haven't we sir?
Who do we have the pleasure to meet, Sherif?
This is Mr. Unintelligible
- Who is it? - Unintelligible
I'm Shuhdy Sleiman
We know you very well I'm Mr. Sherif's neighbor
You too? Why don't you work together and bring a lawsuit against them
- To get rid of them once and for all - Keep it cool Mr. Shuhdy
I can't file a lawsuit, Mr. Shuhdy
- You're scared or what? - Don't be afraid, we're all by your side
Knock it off uncle Shuhdy
Mr. Shuhdy, I'm David Kohin the Israeli ambassador
- What's this? - Holy shit
You want me to sit with an imperialist expansionst?
- You settler - You ravisher
- Guys, we're members of the same family - That's the last thing we needed
- Let's go Farida - Let's go Shuhdy
- Come on - Let's get out
We're leaving Sherif, you're coming with us or you'd rather stay here?
I'm coming with you of course
you're leaving or you wanna spend the night here?
The ambassador came to your house
- And brougth you a cake? - Yes
- He had lit the candles? - Yes
And sang happy birthday to you in Arabic?
Yeah
The only explanation is that our position is strong
and theirs is very weak
You have the strongest lawyer in the Middle East
It's getting clearer guys
I'm gonna quit celebrating my birthdays
I can't take it anymore
I'm leaving
- Where did it go? - You lost something?
- It was right here, where did it go? - Where did what go?
- The blue suit that I wore to come here - You're wearing it
Yeah right
It's a good thing you told me I was leaving without it
- You want me to take you home? - No, I'm fine, I'm fine
I'd gouge your eyes out and replace them with two stones
But where would I get these stones from?
- Be careful - I'm okay
Take it up
- Brother Sherif, the government... - It's a government of non-believers
It's so corrupted
- So you're with us? - Of course I am
You're ready to do whatever we ask you to?
I lay my life in you hands I'd do whatever you want
Then you're not scared of the government?
I only fear God
You're full of faith
I believe in God, the one and only and I'm His most loyal servant
- Brother Sherif - Yes
This is what you've been destined for
To give the biggest favor for the whole Islamic Nation
Of course, of course
What are they strapping me with?
It's the explosive's strap
- What strap? - The explosive's strap
- Explosive like a bomb? - We know you have a strong faith
we're most sure you won't hesitate
to sacrifice yourself for the Whole Islamic nation
you'll become a martyr and that's the biggest reward you'll ever get
according to God's will
- You don't belong to this place - Where do I belong?
- Your place is up? - What do you mean by up?
Up with the martyrs
You'll remain down here
- And I'll go up all by myself? - Yes
Why don't you go up and I'll wait for you down here?
It's your destiny
This strap will blow up in exactly an hour
- And you know where it must blow up - Where?
In the whole building
Included the embassy of pigs and monkeys
- I'll be in that building too - Yes but be careful
If you make any attempt of loosening the strap
Will result in your own death
You'll lose your remuneration
Put your trust in the Lord he's your only aid
- And your reward will be great - And the reward will be great
- What's wrong, man? - I won
I want this to be done and over with, within 48 hours
I'm wearing an explosive strap
5 seconds before it blew up, they took it off
I don't know why is this happening to me? What have I done to deserve this?
Well, you did a lot of awful things, man, here you go
Tomorrow you'll be relieved tomorrow they'll pass the final judgment
They're gonna leave the building we're gonna kick them out
- What is it Mr. Tarek? - I wanted to see you before leaving
- Where are you going? - I've been transferred to the New Movement
I'll be working in the Anti-riot division
I sure am gonna miss you Mr. Tarek
Allow me to say you're the most courageous man I've ever known
I'd like to hear from you from time to time
God bless you
If we all love this country as much as you do
this country would be the greatest place on earth
Mr. Sherif
Mr. Sherif, Mr. Sherif
God help you
Where to miss?
I live in this building
I've never had the peasure to see such a beauty
- It was locked up - Why? Why don't you open it?
- You're Sherif Khayry? - Yeah, that's me
You turned the whole country upside down
Don't you worry the power has gone off
- Does it go off very often here? - No
But being the luckiest man on earth, it went off today
The power comes back on in the most unsuitable moment
Why don't we go to my place? I'll fix a drink to regain your wits
But you must promise me to act like a gentleman
I'll treat you like no man has ever treated a lady before
I'll be a gentleman all night long
What do you think about this gentleman?
So great, right?
Who are you? How did you get in here?
- This is her husband - Her husband? You're most welcome
Don't you point the finger of suspicion at me, or even start getting ideas
you have a wonderful wife
she jsut had cerain problems I was helping her to solve them
get up and leave with your husband, go ahead
why did you make her sad?
she got upset and ended up in bed with another man
but I took great care of her she's perfectly amazing
- Yes - Look Mr. Sherif
- Tell me - We have everything you did tonight on tape
we can reveal it, if you like it
this is called adultery you can get 3 year sentence
or maybe her husband might lose his mind and kill you right away
What you're saying is very logical
You're a bunch of respectable people
but why don't we just keep it to ourselves
I'd do whatever you want
Sometimes, we commit some hideous deeds we're ashamed of
First thing in the morning I want you you to go to the court
and drop the case of expelling the embassy from the building
Better remain good friends, right?
There is my client
As you can see, his eyes are red, his clothes are ragged, so tired, with his untidy hair
Is this the same Sherif Khayry who arrived from abroad few weeks ago
with rounded cheeks full of hope and joy?
Look at his face
Is this the same Sherif Khayry?
He can't speak your honor, he's speechless
He's a wreck, he's the remnant of a human being
Your honor, I would like to speak
Sherif Khayry the symbol of resistance
Sherif Khayry the symbol of resistance
Either me or the embassy within that building
Either me or the embassy within that building
Your honor, I'm here to drop the case against the embassy
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
The case is closed and the session is adjourned
You sold our case Sherif
You sold it you piece of shit
How much did you take?
Shame on you
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
An unexpected surprise took place when Sherif Khayry entered the court
which turned everything usided down
Sherif Khayry who was the whole last month a great hero
turned suddenly into a traitor
Lots of demonstrations are taking place in front of the Court
claiming the head of Sherif Khayry
Has Sherif Khayry been paid for this stand?
Did he yield to threats and enticements?
What role did the Egyptian government play in this situation?
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
- Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor - You were with Ahmad El Kasem
- El Munira TV station, Cairo - Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor

Yes, Abu Iyad
Look Abu Iyad
I have nothing left in this country
I'm confined to the house I can't get down on the street
If only I hadn't come here
I'm a stranger in my own country
I wanna go back
Even if I don't get my job back, I wanna go back
Fine Abu Iyad
Yeah? Who is it?
Wala' Ghanem, how are you doing Wala'?
Where did you get my number? It must be the guys
Yeah, why I've never seen you with them?
Fine, I'll drop by you tomorrow we'll have lunch together no I'm not busy
Fine Wala'
What are you writing?
You're giving me a parking ticket? I haven't done anything illegal
Yes I'm giving you a parking ticket
There's an old ticket too is there anything else?
- Sheri - Wala'
How are you?
You're leading a great life, man
You used to be a poor fellow you're a drug dealer now or what?
You've always been a funny man, Sherif
You've turned this country upside down man
you're front page news, man come with me, come over here
What's going on with you?
Since I came from the Emirates I don't get what's happening
once I'm a national hero another time I'm a traitor
The same people who held my pictures up high are trampling on me
I'm neither a hero nor a traitor
I'm just Sherif Khayry you know me very well
Yes man, the university's Casanova
Nor this, women don't want me either
- What's all this wealth? - I worked as a businessman just like you
I worked hard without letting myself be influenced by all the useless monsense
- What are you gonna do? - I'd like to go back to the Emirates
I'm having a hard time here
Look, you saved some money, right?
Why don't you remain here and we can do business together?
- What kind of business - That's exactly what I wanna talk about
Come over here, we can have lunch and discuss business issues at the same time
Ambassador I suppose you met Mr. Sherif
We've already met, Wala'
Mr. Sherif is our dearest neighbor
Please have a seat both of you
- You're working with them, Wala' - Sherif, let's be practical
Until when we'll remain sworn enemies?
Just tell me, what's the use of all these popular slogans?
We won't be fighting them anymore
Better work and build this country
By the way, their agricultural experiment was carrid out successfully
Your experts have done a breakthrough, ambassador
Our fruits do not grow on specific seasons anymore
We can eat water melon in winter and orange in summer
Their experts? You brought Israeli experts to grow our land?
I wondered why the fruits became so tasteless and odorless
We've been growing our land for 7000 years
And now you brought them to cultivate our own lands?
Mr. Sherif?
We haven't seen you at the reception, I sent you an invitation
- I hate receptions - I just wanted to ask you a favor, Mr. Sherif
- What favor? - Frankly, I'm terribly ashamed of myself
The number of guests is much more than I expected
I'm terribly ashamed
- What can I do for you? - If you don't mind
Can you open your flat's door to receive my guests in your reception room?
Just for an hour
- My guests have no place to sit - You want them to sit in my flat?
A neighbor in need is a neighbor indeed, right?
I'm sorry, I can't
How can you trun me down? It's the first time I ask you a favor
I received an interesting video tape but didn't show it to anyone
That's of course because I hold you in high esteem
I see
- You're so lucky? - Lucky that I got sacked
and am going back home to earn a living?
But you're going back to your home country
Sherif Khayry the symbol of resistance
Sherif Khayry the symbol of resistance
Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor Sherif Khayry is a filthy traitor
There's only one God
There's only one God
