- The weapons industry is very important

to the economy of the Western democracies.

I'm part of it.

I've spent most of my career
working in conflict areas

and my work has been entirely funded

by states and international organizations.

Now that being said, today

I'm here to talk about human dignity.

Can one measure human dignity in money?

Last week, I attended
a meeting in Helsinki

where it was decided that Hamina Steel,

a state-owned company, would it be allowed

to sell a weapons worth $100
million to Saudi Arabia?

Where is the human dignity in that?

Why does the Republic
of Finland sell weapons

to a country that does
not respect human rights

a country that would use those weapons

to harm people and the environment?

The weapons in question are on their way

to Saudi Arabia right
now, I did not manage

to prevent this arms deal, I failed.

But, I will never give up.

I will never turn my
back on him on humanity

and that is precisely why I
decided to come here today

to ask how in the light of this knowledge

can any Finnish politician
call himself or herself

a decision-maker who
respects human dignity?

We don't just close our eyes.

We are actually complicit
in the crimes taking place

right now as we sit here and chit-chat.

I'm ashamed of being European.

I'm ashamed of being a Finn.

(tense dramatic music)

- Foreign Minister Rantala,

what did you think of
Ann-Mari Sundell's speech?

Do you agree with your predecessor?

- I think all Finns should now

look in the mirror and ask themselves

whether they are building
a better society,

a better world or tearing apart

the basic foundation of a civil society?

- But Finland is selling
guns to Saudi Arabia?

Can you confirm that?

(tense dramatic music)

(protesters chant)

(tense dramatic music)

(phone rings)

(phone vibrates)

- [Ann-Mari] I can't answer right now.

Please leave a message.

- The Finnish state demands
the UN Security Council

ratify new disarmament agreement,

which employs heavy methods
to root arms exports.

- [Reporter] The United
Nation's Secretary General,

Theo Slobo, has not yet
commented on the speech.

- [Ann-Mari] The weapons in question

are on their way to
Saudi Arabia right now.

I did not to manage to prevent
this arms deal, I failed.

- There you are

Why don't you answer the phone?

I called you like a million times.

I was worried

- I'm an ex-peacemaker.

- Ah, come on.

What did you expect, the Nobel Prize?

Listen, it was a good speech.

- I know.

Come on, Theo, why are you here?

- The Turkish government
and the Kurdish Party

are ready to start the peace negotiations.

- Well, peace is impossible as long

as Berkay Esmer keeps
Binav Bashur in exile.

- Sure, Bashur is the
key, but Hawar Ciziri

has the Kurd's majority behind him

and he has given the green
light for the negotiations.

- That's good.

But you know there's no way I'm doing it

besides I'm not even
allowed to do anything

during the prosecution process.

- Everything is negotiable.

- Is it?

- Ann-Mari, you're born to do
this and you're be good at it.

Besides that, it's your only option.

You stay and they give you one month until

you get tangled up in your fish
net or start climbing walls.

- Anywhere but Turkey.

- You're the only one
who can negotiate peace

between the Turks and the Kurds
within this tight schedule.

- Why?

- [Theo] You know them well.

- Yes, but why the tight schedule.

- Berkay Esmer wants to look good

in the eyes of the Western countries.

- Well, the conflict's been
going on for over three decades.

Why now?

- Lead him out of the caves
he has driven himself into.

- Oh, stop talking in riddles.

Tell me what this is really about.

- Turkey is part of NATO,
and it's hard for NATO

to watch how violently
the Turks treat the Kurds.

This is the latest info
about the peace negotiations

in Oslo, and it's confidential.

(tense dramatic music)

I've arranged proper financing for you.

You choose your best team.

And, don't worry about
the prosecution process.

We'll handle it.

Ann-Mari, this will be
your biggest case ever.

(clock ticks)

Great, listen, we have to move fast.

We need you and your team.

(knocking on door)

- [Emilia] Please come in.

- Hi, thank you.

- I am Emilia Engblom.

- Diyar Amedi.

- So nice to finally meet you.

- I've heard a lot of
good things about you.

- [Emilia] Yeah, me too.

- Hi, Ann-Mari.

- You've grown up.

- [Diyar] Yeah, it's the
touch of gray in my hair.

- I prepared a short memo
of the Oslo negotiations.

The negotiations broke down
because of an information leak,

and they took all the
necessary precautions

and still it came out, we
need to be very careful.

We don't share any information online

and we do this the old way.

Sorry, I need one more thing.

- She's great.

- Of course, please.

(tense dramatic music)

Last week I had a meeting in Helsinki,

where it was decided that Hamini Steel.

Okay, let's role play,

your Esmer, your Ciziri, go.

- You must stop seeing
Kurds as terrorists.

There are millions of Kurds

who has nothing to do with
the guerrilla movement.

- How can you guarantee that

the terrorist movement will be over?

- You must show the way.

- Did you just relate
me to Kurdish gorillas?

That's insulting.

- She's right, be careful.

Ciziri would not ever insult
us when we're face-to-face.

- Well, let me explain, we just
had parliamentary elections.

Now, Kurdish politician
got a massive amount

of votes in many areas, a majority, right?

So what happened?

A few days after, you decided

that there would be reelections.

The first round of votes
didn't count anymore.

Now, when the reelections
happened, Turkish police

made sure that there was traffic jams,

accidents, routes closed,
people were being arrested,

media cut up, all kinds of obstacles,

so that the Kurds couldn't
get to the voting places.

So what I'm saying is
you must show the way.

- How can you guarantee that
there won't be any guerillas?

Better conditions are impossible

if you threaten Turkey citizens.

- Simple, if you guarantee
us the same rights

as the Turkey citizens have,

we can make a deal about the disarmament.

- Now, think about the
bomber, twin torches.

- Well as Ms-

- Don't put words in my mouth.

- But I'm just saying that you approved

the negotiations only because it would

secure Kurdish votes in
the upcoming elections.

Come on, it's obvious.

- We also want to have
this peace agreement made.

- Really.

- Guys, keep it concrete.

Esmer is a dictator.

- So fresh is his power.

- Emilia, that's obvious,
but that's not concrete.

Stay purely practical.

What is causing the fear

that's standing in the way of peace?

Okay.

- [Ann-Mari] Now switch places.

- NATO has a large number
of military bases in Turkey.

NATO bases plus Turkish army
base surround Kurdish areas.

We live under constant threat.

We want you to accept us
having our own military forces.

- Impossible, Turkey, doesn't need NATO.

NATO needs Turkey.

- [Emilia] Esmer now.

- What.

- You are Esmer now.

- I'm, oh fuck, sorry, okay.

(knocking on window)

- Go on.

- Give us greater political turf.

(tense dramatic music)

- [Emilia] Let's go again, and Diyar,

you can't let your
personal feelings takeover.

You're getting way too heated.

Okay?

I'll be Esmer

- Okay.

- That's for sure yes,
but what would Ciziri do?

- Empowered, we want our own nation-state.

We are the largest ethnic
group without a nation-state,

and by we, I mean, 60 million Kurds.

We are not are mountains as
your predecessor thought.

- You want me to take yours?

- Yeah, thanks.

(tense dramatic music)

- Yes.

(pulsating music)

Where exactly did you find them?

I understand.

Classify it as secret.

Yeah.

(horns honk)

(windows slap)

- Take the next right.

We'll try to go around the city.

(phone rings)

- Yes, yes I am, no, no-

- No, stay in the car.

(loud commotion)

- [Emilia] Have you been
in the field yourself.

- Not much, you.

- I've done volunteer work
in refugee camps quite a lot,

but mostly I enjoy working with Ann-Mari.

- [Diyar] How long have
you been working with her?

- Seven years, with some gaps.

(phone rings)

- Sorry.

- That's a beautiful son.

- Thank you.

Hello.

277
- [Driver] What if we take a left?

- Yeah, that's good.

That's good, take a left here

and then at the next
intersection you turn right.

(tense dramatic music)

- Can I see that?

- [Ann-Mari] What do you
know about Binav Bashur?

- Interpol has reported no
sightings of him for four months.

- What do your sources say?

- I don't know.

- If we want to achieve
permanent peace we need him.

- I know, but it's impossible.

I mean, in the circumstances
it's, it's too risky.

- You do know why you're here?

(prayers hum in the background)

- It should take a moment.

(tense dramatic music)

- The basic rules, during the
negotiations you don't speak.

Your job is to write everything down.

Diyar, you take down the facts.

Emilia, you concentrate on the emotions.

If anything, urgent comes to
your mind, you write me a note.

If they were to ask you something,

you'll wait for me to answer.

Whatever the subjects turn out to be,

you don't show any
reactions, any expressions.

You're well-prepared but
they will surprise you.

Diyar, you'll be sitting on my left side,

Emilia right side, make sure my chair

is a bit higher than everybody else's/

You'll both sit behind me.

- Good luck.

- The only goal of the first meeting

is to secure a second meeting

(deep inhalation)

(door creaks)

One, the Turkish troops
must cease using violence

and withdraw from the Kurdish areas.

Two, the radical Kurdish Party must

cease hostilities and
lay down their weapons,

which international troops
will later take over.

And three, we will agree on rules

by which when conformed
to no group of people

will be subjected to the
arbitrariness of the other.

So far, do you have any questions?

- If anything in these negotiations

points at independence
for the Kurdish region,

we shall withdraw immediately.

- We shall not negotiate
in surrendering the arms,

unless Turkey acknowledges the attacks

on the Kurdish villages
and still considers

the investigation to the mass grave

from two weeks ago in the center.

- What new mass grave
are you referring to?

- The one found in Sirnak, 150 dead.

- How did we not to know
about the mass grave?

- There is no mention of it here.

- Look at field reports
from the Sirnak region.

There's a refugee camp close
by and patrols in the terrain.

(keyboard clacks)

- Where?

- Diyar, you find it, we're in a hurry now

- Yes, it's here.

- Diplomatic transport coming form Sirnak.

Three cars, skeletal remains,

request for investigation filed.

Permission classified as secrets.

(tense dramatic music)

I'll negotiate with
both parties separately.

Call Maarit.

I was informed that you're
willing to negotiate peace.

and you did mention,
so yourself previously.

- I came to the
negotiations because I want

to hear what new things
NATO has to offer me.

- I operate on a UN mandate.

- Same people.

Kurdish terrorists attacked
the country's government

with violence, they've
done so for 30 years now.

I defend my country and my people against

the terrorist and I
got blamed for it, why?

Because Russia wants Turkey as its pawn

and the United States wants to steer us.

But we can't be silenced, we
are too big and you know it.

- This is my proposal for the matters

to be agreed upon in the peace.

It's been approved by
the UN Security Council

and I'm sure the people in
NATO have seen it already.

You have the time to look it over.

(tense dramatic music)

You know, Bashur is not mentioned at all.

A permanent peace is
possible only if he will

come here and negotiate on it.

- Print out the same agenda again.

Add Binav Bashur to the list.

- What happened?

- Well, she handed over our list to Esmer

and she called it our proposal, the draft.

- [Ann-Mari] We will discuss these points.

- It says nothing about mass graves here.

- Sometimes the way to the truth

takes another route than planned.

- If the mass graves are investigated

we can negotiate about
permanent peace treaty.

- You know, you cannot have deadly loss,

that the rest of the world
consider a terrorist organization

and negotiate peace at the same time.

396
- If you prefer to speak Kurdish,

I'll bring in an interpreter.

Would you like that?

Shall we continue then?

- Have you ever lose
something dear to your heart?

Investigating the mass grave is not

about dwelling in the past,
you have to remember that.

Each Kurd has wounds.

If this peace treaty is
about placing plaster

on those wounds, you know,
that is a waste of time.

- The country called Kurdistan
has never officially existed.

- We want sovereignty, a
chance to live in peace.

(tense dramatic music)

- It's a good hotel.

It's seems I'm going for a run.

- This will be a long process.

(tense dramatic music)

(prayers shouted)

(pulsating engaging music)

- Hi, how are you?

- Reading about Bashur.

He's an exceptional character.

How do you feel about today's meeting?

- Mixed feelings.

- But they both came.

- It's a good start.

- It's a very good sign.

Don't fall asleep in this bar.

- You don't think that'd be a good time?

- No.

- Okay, can I get a beer?

- Yes.

- Welcome, I hope the journey went well.

We'll start unloading
the cargo straight away.

If that's okay with you?

(tense dramatic music)

- Great

Thank you for your cooperation.

Have a safe journey back home.
