Your colleagues praise your sobriety,

And that you are peaceful.

What exactly happened?

Why did you smash everything and jump out the window?

Did you want to commit suicide?

You have to be honest with me so I can help you.

They can accuse you of terrorism.

I'm here to help you, Rafiq.

Who's talking?

- What is with you? - What's wrong?

Stop!

He is one year ahead of his colleagues. We enrolled him before he turned six years old.

It wasn't easy,

- My brother intervened to get him enrolled. - Okay.

It's a private school, called La Fontaine.

Expensive but extraordinary. It's excellent!

Yes.

He's naughty!

Smart and talented!

With the testimony of his teacher.

He received a certificate of distinction last year.

Yes.

What are you up to, Rafiq?

What do you mean?

What have you decided?

- I'll take them with me. - To where?

Did you find housing?

Did you tell him that the owner of the apartment took it back?

Listen, son, we all care about Yassin's interests.

Okay?

He will stay in his school, no discussion!

Also, the Music Club is close to here.

You must find an apartment in our neighborhood.

You know the prices are high here.

What will you do?

I'll manage.

How is that? Are you going to look for a job?

Because you have to work.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

How will you do it?

What is wrong with you?

You had everything: an apartment, a salary, a wife and a son.

You suddenly lost your mind.

Why did you ruin your life?

If you had kept taking your medicine, we wouldn’t be in this situation,

and my daughter wouldn't be the one who takes it.

- wanted to commit suicide in prison. - I didn't do that.

- You jumped out the window! - Not with the intention of committing suicide.

- I don't believe you. - You should believe me!

- Enough, please. - One moment please, I have to talk to her.

- There is nothing to talk to you about anymore. - Just a moment.

You and Yassin should come with me. I have to show you something.

Forget me and Yassin.

- What? - Enough!

What do you mean?

It is enough!

Don't you love me anymore?

Answer me, Yusra.

Excuse me, is this the third grade?

No, upstairs.

Sir! Wait!

I'm talking to you, sir!

- Sir! - Leave me alone!

"Lotfi!"

Catch him, he's over there!

Let go!

- Leave me alone! - Don't move.

Yassin, don't move.

Do you recognize me?

- This is not the right way, go back! - We're not going home.

Where are you taking me then?

You will see.

"Yasin"!

Enough.

Just chill!

Get out.

Do you want to be all alone in the car?

Listen, Yassin.

Stay here.

I will go there,

And you'll watch me, okay?

- Why? - You'll see.

I'm not alone.

I'm with that man.

Is he dead?

There's no blood, he's not dead.

Did he die?

No! leave him!

Leave him!

No! Stop it!

Leave him! I told you…

Who is this?

- The shepherd. - What?

What? What sheep?

When you're constantly running...

You fell, and he carried you here on his shoulders.

But before that, what happened?

What?

- "Yasin"! - You fell…

Before I fell, what happened?

Did you see me?

You saw how I flew, right?

Look at me!

You saw how I soared, Yassin.

We will tell your mother what happened...

And she will believe us.

Agreed?

Can we stay here until the rain stops?

Will we go home tomorrow?

Okay.

Milk for the boy.

I'll wake him up and we'll leave.

What about your sheep?

The dog will look after them.

Where are we going?

Didn't you say we were going home?

See those mountains?

The one that resembles the back of a dragon.

We'll go after her.

When I was young and we used to pass this way,

The mountain peaks were tilted in this direction through the window.

On the other side, it was tilted in the other direction.

It's like she's following us.

What's with you?

What?

I want to relieve myself.

Okay, we'll stop.

Not for urinating...

But for something else.

That's okay, we'll stop.

I can't relieve myself here.

I don't mean exactly here, we'll find a farther place.

No, I can’t.

Yes, you can.

What about him?

- What about him? - He will look at me.

Don't worry, he won't look at you.

Do you want me to stay by your side?

- Yes, but stay away a little. - Okay, I'll go away for a bit.

I'm going to fall on the poo.

I'm coming.

I'll grab the bottle and you wash, okay?

I can't hold the bottle and wash.

decent.

I will pour water.

I've cleaned you up many times before.

- When I was wearing diapers? - Yes.

As I bathed you.

My grandmother always said you were evil.

truly?

Is that what they say about me?

I always said that your grandmother is a witch.

Didn't you know she was a witch?

- No, My grandmother is good. - Let's go.

Come here. watch out.

-I don't want to do what you did. - What do you mean?

Jump like you did, I'd die if I did the same.

- No, you won't die. - Yes I will.

If I jump like you, I will definitely die!

- Who told you that? -Everyone knows this.

Give me your hands.

Lift your hands, wipe them.

Forget this issue.

We're going to a place you'll really like.

- Behind the mountain, the dragon? - Yep.

Is it a magical mountain?

No, it's not magical, it's an ordinary mountain.

But we'll still be there together.

- What about my mother? - She'll still be with us too.

What about that man?

I'll think about it.

- Hello. - Welcome.

Car papers and ID.

Identity.

I don't have it.

Hello.

I want to verify an identity.

“Rafiq Al-Obaidi”…

Don't move.

I told you not to move.

Slow down.

- Slow down, we're going to get into an accident. - Hush.

- We will have an accident. - Be quiet.

dismounted.

My bag.

Have we lost our way?

Listen, you'll wait here with him.

I'll go look for what we can do and then come back.

Good?

- Hello, ma'am. - Hello, what's going on?

- My son is sick, and our car got stuck in the mud... - Back inside.

- Back in.

There is no doctor here. You must go to the village of Oulad Hilal.

I told you, ma'am, that our car is stuck in the mud.

I told you to get back inside.

- What do you want? Do you want me to give you a ride? - I didn't say that.

What do you want? I didn't understand.

- Enough, I told you to get back in.

You're not listening to me, ma'am.

What?

Listen to me please. Come here, Yassin.

This is my son, and he is sick.

Night will soon fall.

We want to stay with you until morning comes.

Can we do that?

I apologize, but this is not possible.

Why?

Excuse me, but I can't.

I really can't.

Leave him!

- It's okay, stop screaming. - “Wajdi”! leave it!

-It's fine. - “Wajdi”!

- “Wagdi”! - What's the matter?

What's the matter?

- They entered by force! - What?

- Leave my house. - We'll stay here.

What? Get out of my house!

Let go of me!

I told you to let me go!

Let me go!

Dad?

Go back to your room, Osama.

- What's going on? - Go back to your room!

I have a gun in the bag.

Don't force me to use it.

Will you stop?

Go back to your room, Osama.

I told you to go!

- "Ossama". - Don't talk to him.

Come on, Yassin.

This is my son, Yassin. Can he stay with you?

Do you want to accompany him, "Yassin"?

Come on, go.

Car keys.

I said, the car keys!

Both of you, cellphones.

Your phone.

- In the living room. - Move.

What are you doing?

We have to scare them until morning comes.

Do you understand?

Come on.

What are you doing?

Show me your hands!

I told you, show me your hands!

Don't make me tie you up!

Sit down!

- Quickly! - I have to go to the kitchen.

You're not going to the kitchen, move.

- My son is there. - Which son?

Our baby's in the kitchen.

Go to the kitchen.

Come on, go to the kitchen!

You stay here.

Watch him!

If you go now, we won't tell the police.

We'll give you both food and money.

You're still young.

Why are you doing this?

You don't look like a criminal.

I've killed someone before.

Do you study in my mother's class?

Don't you go to "Al-Idrisiya" school?

no.

Which school do you go to then?

La Fontaine School.

Where is it?

In Tunisia.

Why are you here then?

Our car got stuck in the mud.

My father says that the level of students in the capital is average.

What is your total score out of 20?

It's 17.40.

Do you know what this is?

Space?

No, The universe.

no.

It's the solar system.

My father put it there for me. Look.

Did you know that there are 200 billion stars in our galaxy?

That's what my father said.

- ...was tea discovered? - Change the question.

What city is called the City of Darkness?

It's London.

The current president of Mexico is Andres Obrador?

Move over.

Move.

Wait, please.

One moment, please.

We made a mistake, forgive us.

Think of the children, please!

They mustn't see us like this, please.

Will they spend the night here?

Okay.

The child told me that his father flies.

Enough lying.

Me? I swear to you I'm not lying!

Don't swear falsely!

He told me that himself.

Your friend is joking with you.

He's not my friend, nor is he joking. He swore to me about it.

Explain gravity to him, Dad.

Tell him we can't fly.

- I told you to shut up! - I'm talking to my father.

"Ossama"!

You will be punished.

Why will I be punished? What did I do?

I swear to you, if you say another word...

Didn't you say that we should not swear?

I saw him fly.

Are you serious?

Dad?

We can't fly.

Dad?

- Tell him... - Enough, shut up!

Go up to your room. Let's go.

"Osama".

He's being punished.

He will go to his room.

I know that.

Come here.

Listen to me.

In the past, at the beginning of the world...

People didn't walk like us.

Rather like this.

On all fours.

And one day…

Someone started...

by standing and walking on his feet.

As for the rest...

They were afraid at first.

But they got used to it over time.

And they started walking like him.

Many things may change...

While we are unaware of it.

Maybe we can all fly without even realizing it.

God did not give us the gift of flying.

I'll show you tomorrow if you want.

- Maybe you can fly too. - Enough!

Enough, Osama, go up to your room.

He can sleep in Osama's room.

Upstairs is warmer.

“Yassin.”

Do you want to sleep in Osama's room?

Tell me, is that really your father?

Okay.

Who is the other guy?

A shepherd.

What about your mother? Where is she?

Did something happen to her?

No, my mother is at home.

Well, tell me, Yassin, did your father do something stupid?

What happened to you?

And what about the things he says, like that he’s flying and that you’re sick?

You're not sick, are you?

Why would he lie then?

Did you know that lying is bad?

Yes, but I saw him fly.

Well, tell me...

Do you want to go back to your mother?

- Will you join us. - Where?

Behind the mountain.

Can you go out? I want to relieve myself.

Good.

Are you mad at me?

Dear.

There are things you can't understand.

- Will you forgive me? - No.

I will not forgive you this time.

- Has he fallen asleep? - He's about to fall sleep.

Can you stay until I sleep?

Will you show him how to fly?

Is that what you want?

Good.

We should put the two kids to bed upstairs.

The basement is very cold.

We'll put them to bed and head down.

We can't leave them with us all night.

- They will get sick. - Take them.

I put a sedative in the water for them.

What?

Emptied the bottle of sedative into the water.

They didn't have a weapon, I searched their bag.

How long does it take to take effect?

I don't know.

I'll wait a little while and then go check.

What do we do next?

We get our phones back and call the police.

This crazy kid tells him he's flying!

Shall we go down?

Let's wait a little while.

Have you gone back to taking the sedative?

Yes.

What did the psychiatrist tell you?

I haven't visited him.

I don't want him to say again that the problem is work and the children.

I thought you'd be better if we moved here.

"Wajdi"?

- Did you find them? - No.

They hid them.

“Wajdi.”

Let's tie them up before they wake up.

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Where did you hide the phones?

What?

The two phones! Where are they?

Wake up! Tell us!

Where did you put the two phones?

What about car keys? Where are they?

- Outside. - Where exactly?

"Najwa"!

There is nothing outside.

He's making fun of us.

What are you doing?

- Put the knife back. - No.

Aren't we going to do something?

Just to scare them.

Okay. Give it to me.

Give it to me.

- What are you doing?

Where did you put the two phones?

Speak!

Speak! Where did you put them?

Where did you put them?

Put these two on their heads.

Do it, please.

Talk!

I will kill you!

Stop! You will kill him!

Leave him, Wajdi!

Daylight has arrived.

Let us go.

I'll take my son and we'll leave.

The boy will stay here.

“Yassin!”

- “Yassin.” - Shut up.

- Just chill!

Mom?

- Mom? - Yassin!

I told you to shut up.

Be silent if you want your son. I'm waiting.

Go up and bring him his son.

Give me back my son, please.

She will bring him to you.

Talk! Where are the phones and keys?

Where are they?

Speak! where are they?

In the bathroom.

Where in the bathroom?

Behind the drawers.

Don't move!

Come here!

"Yassin".

Come on!

Wait here.

Breathe, Yassin!

Open your eyes.

Hold on to me!

Dad!

Dad?

Get up, Dad.

Did they ask you for money?

These people come from the mountains,

They break into homes for the purpose of getting supplies.

Did you notice any signs of criminal behavior or extremism in them?

The owner of the knife said that he had killed before.

Is there another observation that can help us?

The one who died told us that he flies.

How so?

He said he could fly.

Oh God, forgive them.

Humans have gone crazy.

I saw him fly.

Which class are you in, Yassin?

In third grade.

You're a man now!

What do you want to be when you grow up?
