00:01:36 Thank you.
00:01:39 Hmm.
00:01:42 Ah. May I take your coat?
00:01:44 No, thank you.
00:01:45 Uh...
00:01:46 would you like something to drink?
00:01:48 No.
00:01:51 Shall we get started?
00:01:52 Uh, okay.
00:02:06 Let's try it again.
00:02:08 The same thing?
00:02:09 Yes.
00:02:11 And remember...
00:02:12 fingers curved like a tunnel.
00:02:15 Okay.
00:02:18 ## [classical, slowly]
00:02:24 Don't flatten.
00:02:27 Make room for the train.
00:02:29 [stops playing]
00:02:30 What?
00:02:32 It's something I tell my kids.
00:02:34 If the fingers are curved, like this,
00:02:38 then there's room for the train
00:02:46 [door opens]
00:02:47 - Thank you.
00:02:48 Uh, next Tuesday, then, same time?
00:02:50 No. Uh, I don't think
00:02:54 Oh, no.
00:02:56 You're giving up?
00:02:58 No.
00:03:01 Oh.
00:03:03 Okay.
00:03:04 Well...
00:03:05 good-bye.

00:03:12 How many teachers
00:03:16 Four.
00:03:17 Well, for what it's worth,
00:03:19 learning an instrument
00:03:22 especially if you don't possess
00:03:27 I'm not saying this to be mean.
00:03:29 But if you do decide to give up,
00:03:38 Okay.
00:03:52 Each stage of experience
00:03:54 because the conditions there
00:03:56 that made trade mobilization
00:04:00 weren't present
00:04:04 [laughing, chatter]
00:04:09 Yes?
00:04:12 Hi.
00:04:13 Come in.
00:04:26 Paper. Uh, sorry it's late.
00:04:30 Why is it late?
00:04:32 I had some personal
00:04:37 I'm sorry, but I can't accept it now.
00:04:42 I mean, I... I really had a...

00:05:41 Hello, Walter.
00:05:43 Hi, Charles.
00:05:44 You got a sec?
00:05:45 Sure.
00:05:47 Walter, Shelley can't make it down
00:05:48 to the NYU conference
00:05:50 I'm gonna need you to cover for her.
00:05:52 Why can't she go?
00:05:54 She's been put on bed rest
00:05:57 I wish I could, but now is not
00:06:00 Well, I understand,
00:06:03 and the Dean wants it presented.
00:06:04 He wants to keep
00:06:06 I just don't think I can,
00:06:10 You're only teaching one class, Walter.
00:06:12 So I can stay focused on my book.
00:06:17 Charles, I would really rather not go.
00:06:19 Well, I'm sorry, but there really
00:06:27 Charles, the truth is...
00:06:29 this is really Shelley's paper.
00:06:31 I just agreed to co-author it
00:06:36 I'm not really prepared to present it.
00:06:39 Now, look, Walter,
00:06:41 with the Dean if you want,
00:06:42 but as your friend, I wouldn't advise it,

00:10:51 I've had this apartment for 25 years.
00:10:53 So why haven't you been here?
00:10:54 Because I live in Connecticut.
00:10:58 Are you friends with Ivan?
00:10:59 Ivan. I don't... Who's Ivan?
00:11:01 [speaking French]
00:11:03 I'm sure he's called the police!
00:11:06 - Did you call the police?
00:11:07 - You did not call the police?
00:11:13 And you don't know Ivan?
00:11:15 No. Who is he?
00:11:16 - He rented us this place.
00:11:18 He said it belongs
00:11:20 I don't know who he is.

00:21:22 Three, and I'm working on a fourth.
00:21:24 - Four books.

00:21:30 My father was a writer. A journalist.
00:21:32 Is he still writing?
00:21:34 No. He died before we left Syria,

00:23:35 Very good.
00:23:36 Really? You liked it?
00:23:37 Yeah. It was very good.
00:23:38 I was not sure.
00:23:40 I thought it's too loud and you know.
00:23:53 [door closes]
00:24:24 Tarek?
00:24:27 [drumbeats]
00:24:40 Oh.
00:24:41 [exhales sharply]
00:24:43 Sounded good, Walter.
00:24:45 I'm sorry. I...
00:24:46 No. Don't be sorry.
00:24:48 That's what it's there for.
00:24:51 [laughs]
00:24:52 on my bed, listening to my music,
00:24:53 and then I was, like...
00:24:55 what's that crazy rhythm I'm hearing?
00:24:59 Sit. Come on. I'll show you.
00:25:12 Just put your feet flat on the ground.
00:25:16 Now take the drum
00:25:19 [exhales heavily]
00:25:23 Now you want to take
00:25:25 with your ankles, like this.
00:25:28 Great.
00:25:30 You're okay?
00:25:32 Okay.
00:25:33 Okay.
00:25:34 Now, Walter, I know
00:25:36 but with a drum
00:25:40 Thinking just screws it up. Okay?
00:25:42 Okay.
00:25:43 Now, give it a couple of bangs.
00:25:45 [sighs deeply]
00:25:49 Not so hard. You're not angry at it.
00:25:50 Okay. I'm sorry.
00:25:54 Okay.
00:25:59 Better. Did you think?
00:26:01 No.
00:26:02 Good.
00:26:03 Now, one more thing, Walter.
00:26:05 You listen to classical music,
00:26:08 1, 2, 3, 4.
00:26:10 Dah, dah, dah, dah.
00:26:12 This is an African drum,
00:26:13 so we're gonna be playing in threes.
00:26:15 Tak tak tak.
00:26:16 You have to forget your classical.
00:26:17 Leave it behind. Tak tak tak.
00:26:19 1, 2, 3.
00:26:21 Come on, follow me.
00:26:23 Tak tak tak.
00:26:24 Tak tak tak.
00:26:25 1, 2, 3.
00:26:30 Don't worry. Start again.
00:26:32 Good.
00:26:33 Don't worry.
00:26:35 Again.
00:26:42 Good.
00:26:45 You got it.
00:26:47 - [falls out of rhythm]
00:26:49 - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:26:51 Don't worry. Go again.
00:26:59 Good.
00:27:03 That's it.
00:27:04 Now, keep it going, and I'll do this.
00:27:06 [new rhythm]
00:27:14 There you go.
00:27:15 1...
00:27:17 1...
00:27:27 Hohh!

00:27:50 [drumming stops]
00:28:05 Hello.
00:28:06 Hi.
00:28:08 [breathing heavily]
00:28:09 Is Tarek home?
00:28:10 Uh, no. He, uh...
00:28:14 [panting]
00:28:15 Are you okay?
00:28:16 Yes.
00:28:18 Tarek's been giving me drum lessons,
00:28:20 [breathing heavily]
00:28:25 Don't worry. I'll keep my pants on.
00:28:30 What?
00:28:32 Nothing.
00:28:33 It's just that earlier, uh...
00:28:36 No, nothing.
00:28:42 [sigh]
00:28:47 ## [bass strumming and drumbeats]
00:28:50 ## [singing in foreign language]
00:29:21 ## [saxophone]
00:29:28 Which is due, in large part,
00:29:30 to the delay in African infrastructure
00:29:33 and the slowdown on steel imports.
00:29:36 [coughs]
00:29:44 [dialog inaudible]
00:29:50 Hey, Walter!
00:30:05 How did the presentation go?
00:30:07 Oh, fine. Thanks.
00:30:08 Cool.
00:30:10 - You ready?
00:30:11 Let's go.
00:30:12 - Can you grab this drum?
00:30:14 Okay.
00:30:15 You might want to take off
00:30:17 Oh, okay.
00:30:22 You hungry?
00:30:23 Yeah, I'm starving.
00:30:25 You like shawarmas?
00:30:26 Yeah, I like sharmas.
00:30:29 - [correcting] Shawarmas.
00:30:35 Here. This is for you.
00:30:38 For letting us stay.
00:30:39 Oh. Thank you.
00:30:43 It's Fela Kuti. You know him?
00:30:45 Nope.
00:30:46 - You don't know Fela?
00:30:49 Then, Walter, you're in for a treat.
00:30:51 He started the whole Afrobeat movement.
00:30:53 Oh, and his drummer, Tony Allen,
00:30:56 You want to play drums,
00:30:58 Okay. I will.
00:31:03 Ooh.
00:31:04 Did you make these?
00:31:06 Yes, I made these.
00:31:07 Ooh.
00:31:08 - How much?
00:31:10 Mmm...
00:31:12 this one.
00:31:14 That's $35.
00:31:16 Will you take 30?
00:31:17 No. 35.
00:31:18 Okay.
00:31:20 My daughter will think this is very cool.
00:31:23 Where are you from?
00:31:25 Senegal.
00:31:26 Oh, I was in Cape Town
00:31:29 It is so beautiful.
00:31:32 - Thank you very much.
00:31:35 Uh, Zainab.
00:31:36 Zainab!
00:31:37 So pretty.
00:31:39 - Thank you.
00:31:47 How far is Senegal from Cape Town?
00:31:50 About 8,000 kilometers.
00:31:54 I told this guy yesterday
00:31:57 He asked if I ever visited the Holy Land.
00:32:01 Hey, look who it is!
00:32:04 - Zev.
00:32:05 How are you, man?
00:32:06 Good, man.
00:32:07 Hey, honey.
00:32:08 Hi. Hi, Walter.
00:32:10 [Walter]
00:32:11 Her stuff is great, right?
00:32:12 Beautiful.
00:32:13 She made me this.
00:32:15 [Walter]
00:32:17 So Walter and I
00:32:19 to play for a little bit, okay?
00:32:21 Tarek. Remember I told you
00:32:23 we have to pick up
00:32:25 He said he'll only hold it for today.
00:32:27 Oh, I know, I know. No problem.
00:32:28 Tarek, you always say "No problem,"
00:32:32 I know. I... I will not be long.
00:32:33 We will go up and play,
00:32:37 It's a promise, habibti.
00:32:41 It's always habibti
00:32:44 Good-bye.
00:32:47 Bye.
00:32:48 He closes at 5 p.m., Tarek.
00:32:50 No Arab time.
00:32:52 No, not Arab time.
00:32:53 Real time, habibti.
00:32:55 [snickers]
00:32:57 Don't habibti me, man.
00:32:59 What does habibti mean?
00:33:00 Habibti? It means "beloved one."
00:33:03 Does she know that?
00:33:06 ## [Oriental]
00:33:15 I always wanted to play down here.
00:33:17 It's supposed to be good money.
00:33:20 Why haven't you?
00:33:25 Maybe we could do it together...
00:33:27 split the profits.
00:33:33 ## [drumbeats]
00:33:36 ## [percussion]
00:33:39 What do you think?
00:33:40 I think I'll just watch.
00:33:42 Come on, Walter, it's easy.
00:33:43 You just wait until you feel it.
00:33:45 ## [percussion]
00:33:47 Yeah, let's go.
00:33:48 [chuckling]
00:34:02 ## [playing in unison]
00:34:54 ## [pipe]
00:35:29 ## [whistle]
00:35:42 ## [percussion in distance]
00:35:50 That was fun, right?
00:35:51 Oh, yeah.
00:35:52 How are your hands?
00:35:53 [chuckles]
00:35:54 [both chuckle]
00:35:57 Oh, shit. We have to get home.
00:35:59 Zainab's gonna kill me.
00:36:00 I'm on Arab time again.
00:36:02 What is Arab time?
00:36:03 It means I'm late by an hour.
00:36:05 All Arabs are late by an hour.
00:36:06 It's genetic. We can't help it.
00:36:18 I think that's our train.
00:36:20 I'm gonna need a token.
00:36:21 No, I got you. I got you.
00:36:22 Here's our train. Come.
00:36:26 [beep]
00:36:27 [grunts]
00:36:28 Here, I got you. Let... [chuckles]
00:36:30 [beep]
00:36:32 [beep]
00:36:36 I'm stuck, man.
00:36:38 Here, take it.
00:36:47 This way, please.
00:36:48 What are you doing?
00:36:49 NYPD.
00:36:50 Step this way, please.
00:36:51 Police? What do you want?
00:36:53 You jumped the turnstile, man.
00:36:54 I did not jump it. I paid.
00:36:56 Sir, he... he paid... Please.
00:36:58 But he paid...
00:36:59 Sir, stand over there!
00:37:04 Got anything else, Tarek?
00:37:06 No. Where you from?
00:37:08 I'm from Syria. Why?
00:37:10 What's in the bag?
00:37:12 It's my drum.
00:37:15 [no audible dialogue]
00:37:19 Put this back in your pocket, please, sir.
00:37:22 Step over here.
00:37:23 - Why? I'm sorry...
00:37:24 What did I do?
00:37:26 Oh, come on. Come on.
00:37:31 - I don't think that's necessary.
00:37:33 You can come down to the station
00:37:35 - and make a statement if you want.
00:37:36 Sir! That's all I'm saying!
00:37:37 Now, step back,
00:37:40 Where are you taking him?
00:37:42 10th Precinct.
00:37:43 Walter, take the drum.
00:37:45 Tell Zainab what happened,
00:37:48 I will call you.
00:37:51 Don't let her come.
00:38:08 [door opens]
00:38:17 [door closes]
00:38:18 Where's Tarek?
00:38:19 [sigh]
00:38:21 He was arrested.
00:38:24 What?
00:38:25 Yes.
00:38:27 In the subway.
00:38:28 Arrested?
00:38:30 It was just a misunderstanding.
00:38:32 They said he'd be
00:38:38 How could this happen?
00:38:41 He knows better.
00:38:43 No, he didn't.
00:38:44 He didn't.
00:38:46 I'm sure it'll be okay.
00:38:49 No, it won't be okay.
00:38:51 No, I went down to the precinct
00:38:54 That doesn't matter.
00:38:56 We are illegal.
00:38:58 We are not citizens.
00:39:00 And when they find out, they're going to...
00:39:03 Excuse me.
00:39:11 [door slams]
00:39:27 Well?
00:39:28 They moved him.
00:39:29 To where?
00:39:30 To a detention center in Queens.
00:39:32 He was turned over to Immigration.
00:39:35 They said we can see him
00:39:37 Visiting hours are 5 to 10.
00:39:39 I cannot visit that place.
00:39:42 I'll end up there, too.
00:40:08 Zainab?
00:40:12 Yes.
00:40:13 I brought some Chinese food home,
00:40:16 Oh, no, thank you. I'm not hungry.
00:40:18 Okay. Well, if you change your mind,
00:40:22 Thank you.
00:40:25 Have you heard from Tarek?
00:40:27 No. Not yet.
00:40:29 Oh. Well...
00:40:32 I made an appointment
00:40:34 for tomorrow morning at 11.
00:40:35 No. We can't afford that.
00:40:37 That's okay.
00:40:42 Thank you, Walter.
00:40:46 Walter.
00:40:50 I was in detention...
00:40:53 when I first arrived, for five months.
00:40:58 How did you get out?
00:40:59 They... closed the facility
00:41:05 They didn't release any of the men.
00:41:09 We'll get him out.
00:41:14 Good night.
00:41:15 Good night.
00:42:18 [Man]
00:42:21 Yeah.
00:42:24 Okay.
00:42:27 Sir, that detainee has been moved.
00:42:28 He was here yesterday.
00:42:30 Well, he's not here now.
00:42:32 You can call I.C.
00:42:34 Where?
00:42:35 On the wall by the phone
00:42:38 Next.
00:42:40 Sir, step aside, please.
00:42:47 Hi. I'm here to see Tarek Khalil.
00:42:50 Have you been here before?
00:42:52 No, sir.
00:42:54 [Man] Hello?
00:42:56 May I see your driver's license, please?
00:42:58 [Man]

00:44:05 Walter. Thank you for coming.
00:44:07 Of course.
00:44:09 How is Zainab?
00:44:11 She's upset. Um...
00:44:14 I have a... a letter from her.
00:44:16 Oh, you can't give it to me.
00:44:18 It has to be sent to me by mail.
00:44:21 Oh.
00:44:23 But... But you can put it up to the glass.
00:44:26 Go ahead. Open it up
00:44:27 and press it up to the glass
00:44:29 [door closes]
00:44:30 It's okay. It's allowed.
00:44:44 [Woman]
00:44:46 [cries]
00:44:50 - Oh...
00:44:58 Thank you, Walter.
00:45:02 So how are they treating you?
00:45:06 It's very depressing here.
00:45:10 There's no privacy.
00:45:11 The lights are always on.
00:45:14 You need anything?
00:45:15 No. I just want to get out of here.
00:45:18 Well... Zainab and I met
00:45:21 Yes? What did he say?
00:45:23 Well, he's... he's gonna
00:45:28 Tarek. Zainab said
00:45:33 You mean when we came here?
00:45:35 Yeah.
00:45:36 Did you go to your deportation hearing?
00:45:39 Yeah.
00:45:41 In Michigan.
00:45:42 Yeah. We did everything they told us to.
00:45:44 Okay.
00:45:47 Let's go, man. You gotta get off.
00:45:48 Bed count.
00:45:50 I have to go.
00:45:51 They have to do a bed count.
00:45:54 Usually, I can visit for one hour.
00:45:56 Could you come tomorrow?
00:45:57 - I will. Yeah.
00:46:00 Good-bye, my friend.
00:46:01 Good-bye.
00:46:13 [indistinct chatter]
00:46:14 I'll see you tomorrow.
00:46:15 [Woman]
00:46:22 Walter, I'm going to leave now.
00:46:25 I have a cousin who lives in the Bronx.
00:46:28 I'm going to go
00:46:32 You don't have to go.
00:46:35 I think it's better I leave.
00:46:37 Um... you know how to reach me
00:46:45 Is it okay if I leave
00:46:49 Uh, my cousin's place is...
00:46:55 Yes, of course.
00:46:57 Thank you.

00:47:23 Oh. Hi, Charles.
00:47:25 Oh. Wait. I'm sorry. Wha... What?
00:47:29 Yeah. The conference went very well.
00:47:31 Yes.
00:47:33 No, uh, actually, I'm still in New York,
00:47:36 Why?
00:47:39 [sigh]
00:47:40 Wha...
00:47:42 Oh. Okay.

00:48:07 He didn't know yet. He just said
00:48:09 that unless they can find a way
00:48:12 they're going to deport me.
00:48:13 [door closes]
00:48:14 I don't even understand it.
00:48:17 Walter, there are guys
00:48:20 I can't do that, Walter. I'll go crazy.
00:48:22 He's trying to deal with the case
00:48:25 I know. I know. It's...
00:48:27 It's just...
00:48:29 [sigh]
00:48:30 Look, maybe we
00:48:32 No. No. I don't want her to worry.
00:48:37 Yeah.
00:48:42 Tarek, um...
00:48:46 I have to go back to Connecticut.
00:48:47 When?
00:48:48 Tomorrow.
00:48:50 But I'll be reachable
00:48:52 And I'll be back to visit. It's not far.
00:48:56 Okay.
00:48:57 Just please...
00:48:59 don't forget about me in here.
00:49:00 No, I won't.
00:49:05 So have you been practicing?
00:49:07 Yes.
00:49:09 You should go back to the drum circle.
00:49:11 No.
00:49:14 Okay, but listen to that Fela CD.
00:49:17 - I promise.
00:49:22 So show me what you...
00:49:24 What?
00:49:26 Show me. Why not?
00:49:28 Here?
00:49:29 Come on. I need some music, man.
00:49:32 Don't worry. They can't arrest you.
00:49:34 At least, not yet.
00:49:37 Mmm...
00:49:38 Come on.

00:50:20 [knock knock]
00:50:32 Hello.
00:50:34 Oh, I'm sorry. I must've got
00:50:35 - the wrong apartment.
00:50:37 I'm looking for my son.
00:50:39 Excuse me.
00:50:40 Uh, are...
00:50:44 Yes.
00:50:45 Well, this is Tarek's apartment.
00:50:48 I j...
00:50:50 I share the apartment with him.
00:50:53 He didn't mention
00:50:56 Well, I'm not here very often.
00:50:58 I... I live in Connecticut.
00:51:00 Is Tarek here?
00:51:03 No. He's not here now.
00:51:05 Uh, come in... please.
00:51:10 Please.
00:51:13 Thank you.
00:51:22 Oh, my name is Walter. Walter Vale.
00:51:25 I'm... I'm Mouna Khalil.
00:51:27 I'm sorry to show up unannounced.
00:51:30 My son hasn't called me for five days.
00:51:32 I keep trying his cell phone,
00:51:36 Would you like to sit down?
00:51:37 Thank you.
00:51:57 Mr. Vale?
00:51:58 Is my son all right?
00:52:00 Yes.
00:52:02 He's been arrested.
00:52:06 He's being held in a detention center.
00:52:09 Where?
00:52:10 In Queens.
00:52:11 Uh, they're tying to deport him.
00:52:18 How did this happen?
00:52:19 He was stopped in a subway station.
00:52:22 Uh... he didn't... didn't
00:52:28 I'd like to go there, to Queens.
00:52:32 Okay.
00:52:34 But, Mrs. Khalil, um, the lawyer m...
00:52:38 Uh, I just don't
00:52:41 Mr. Vale, I know I cannot visit Tarek.
00:52:44 I just want to see the place
00:52:49 Okay.
00:52:51 I can take you there.
00:52:52 Thank you.
00:52:56 Could we go now?
00:52:59 ## [Oriental]
00:53:17 So have you been
00:53:20 No. Tarek wanted to come to New York
00:53:24 I did not want him to, but...
00:53:27 Do you have
00:53:29 A son. He lives in London.
00:53:31 And your wife?
00:53:33 My wife passed away.
00:53:35 I'm sorry.
00:53:43 That's it.
00:53:46 - This is where the prison is?
00:53:48 It doesn't look like a prison.
00:53:50 I think that's the point.
00:53:54 How many people are in there?
00:53:56 Tarek said about 300.
00:53:59 There's, uh...
00:54:01 There's a coffee shop on that corner.
00:54:03 - It's not very nice.
00:54:41 Walter. I thought you were leaving.
00:54:43 I was.
00:54:47 Tarek, your mother is here.
00:54:48 What? My mother? Where?
00:54:50 She's waiting outside.
00:54:54 When did she arrive?
00:54:55 Today.
00:54:56 Man. Why did she come?
00:54:58 She can do nothing for me.
00:55:00 Well, she said
00:55:04 Walter, listen to me.
00:55:06 She... She can't stay here.
00:55:08 She doesn't know
00:55:10 I'm sorry, but you must get her
00:55:14 Okay. Okay, I'll try.
00:55:17 Thank you, Walter.
00:55:18 [sigh]
00:55:20 I have a note from her.
00:55:39 Need anything else?
00:55:41 No, thank you.
00:56:27 Hello, sir.
00:56:28 Hi.
00:56:32 How is he?
00:56:33 Oh, he's good. He's good.
00:56:35 Um... but...
00:56:37 he's very concerned
00:56:41 I will not leave.
00:56:44 [sigh]
00:56:45 Mrs. Khalil, I don't... I don't think
00:56:48 your being in New York will do any good
00:56:50 because we have a very good lawyer
00:56:51 Mr. Vale.
00:56:53 I will not go back to Michigan
00:56:55 knowing that my son is in that building.
00:57:00 Even if I can't see him...
00:57:03 I will stay here.
00:57:10 Shall we go?
00:57:15 Uh madame?
00:57:23 Bye.
00:57:29 [door closes]
00:57:32 Mr. Vale?
00:57:35 I'm leaving now.
00:57:36 Thank you for your help.
00:57:39 Where are you going?
00:57:41 I'll find a hotel.
00:57:42 You can stay here.
00:57:46 Thank you for your offer,
00:57:49 I don't want to impose on you.
00:57:51 You're not imposing.
00:57:53 Please. I would like you to stay.
00:57:56 Thank you.
00:57:58 But I will manage.
00:58:04 Good-bye.
00:58:05 Good-bye.

00:58:28 Please.
00:58:30 I was with Tarek
00:58:32 He was in the subway
00:58:35 So...
00:58:37 please.
00:58:39 Even if it's just for one night.
00:58:47 [door closes]
00:58:54 Um, the bathroom is across the hall.
00:58:58 Thank you, Mr. Vale.
00:58:59 [sigh]
00:59:02 And I'm Mouna.
00:59:04 So... do you need anything else?
00:59:06 No, thank you.
00:59:08 Well... good night.
00:59:11 Good night.
00:59:40 [Mouna speaking in foreign language]
00:59:43 [Mouna continues]
00:59:50 Okay?
00:59:53 [continues in foreign language]
00:59:57 Bye.
01:00:10 Oh. Good morning.
01:00:12 Morning.
01:00:13 Mmhh...
01:00:19 Tarek says hello.
01:00:21 How is he?
01:00:23 I can't really tell.
01:00:28 He wants me to leave.
01:00:33 Well... you're welcome to stay here
01:00:37 Thank you.
01:00:38 That's very generous of you.
01:00:39 Well... thank you for the paper.
01:00:42 You're welcome.
01:01:02 Do you spend a lot of time in the city?
01:01:05 No, no. Not really.
01:01:08 I'm just here
01:01:11 Well...
01:01:13 You wrote it?
01:01:14 Mm-hmm.
01:01:16 Congratulations.
01:01:22 I co-authored it, really.
01:01:30 And what happened after the hearing?
01:01:33 We appealed. It took two years.
01:01:35 And your appeal was denied?
01:01:37 Yes.
01:01:38 And did they send you
01:01:40 - No.
01:01:42 Basically, it tells you
01:01:45 But you didn't receive it?
01:01:47 No. I would remember this.
01:01:50 Did you move?
01:01:51 Eventually, we had to.
01:01:53 But we had our mail advanced.
01:01:55 Is it possible that it
01:01:58 Yeah, it's happened before.
01:01:59 And pre-9/11, it wasn't much of a priority
01:02:02 but if you got it and you just ignored it,
01:02:09 So... you can help him.
01:02:11 I'm gonna try.
01:02:12 But you should know it's still a long shot.
01:02:14 The government's approach
01:02:16 It's very black and white now.
01:02:17 Either you belong, or you don't.
01:02:18 Tarek's lucky.
01:02:21 Lucky.
01:02:23 Relatively speaking.
01:02:24 We just have to move quickly
01:02:26 to get an emergency stay,
01:02:28 - to reopen, pending his green card application.
01:02:30 [Man]
01:02:32 Okay.
01:02:33 [hangs up phone]
01:02:34 Can you explain
01:02:36 Actually, I don't have
01:02:38 I'm sorry.
01:02:41 How long will he be in detention?
01:02:42 I can't predict that. I am sorry,
01:02:46 Do you have any children, Mr. Shah?
01:02:51 Yeah. Two kids.
01:02:53 And for what it's worth,
01:02:55 after raising a family here for 23 years.
01:02:58 If I can get your son out... I will.
01:03:02 Thank you.
01:03:08 Where are you from?
01:03:10 Queens.
01:03:14 [Mouna]
01:03:15 [Walter]
01:03:16 That black woman?
01:03:18 Mm-hmm.
01:03:19 That is Zainab?
01:03:20 Mm-hmm.
01:03:23 She's very black.
01:03:26 Mm-hmm.
01:03:35 Zainab.
01:03:37 Oh. Hi, Walter.
01:03:39 Uh, Zainab, this is Mouna Khalil...
01:03:41 Tarek's mother.
01:03:43 - Oh...
01:03:44 Oh, I...
01:03:46 It's a pleasure
01:03:48 You, too.
01:03:50 Uh... I'm s... I'm sorry.
01:03:52 I... I didn't know
01:03:54 Neither did I.
01:04:00 Your jewelry is very nice.
01:04:02 Oh.
01:04:04 Oh, thank you.
01:04:06 [chuckles]
01:04:08 Do you think we can go out
01:04:11 Oh... yeah.
01:04:13 We could go right now.
01:04:14 I... I am...
01:04:17 but I... um...
01:04:19 I just need to... find someone to...
01:04:30 Hey.
01:04:31 Hi.
01:04:36 [Woman]
01:04:38 [Man]
01:04:41 [Woman]
01:04:44 Um...
01:04:46 It's all handmade.
01:04:49 Ooh.
01:04:51 I've lived here for two years,
01:04:54 and I was in France
01:04:58 Do you miss home?
01:04:59 Yes, sometimes.
01:05:03 But I don't want to live there.
01:05:06 Do you miss Syria?
01:05:09 Sometimes, too.
01:05:12 I miss Damascus...
01:05:14 the smell.
01:05:18 But this is my home now.
01:05:22 When did you meet Walter?
01:05:23 Walter? Uh...
01:05:26 about ten days ago.
01:05:28 Ten days? That's all?
01:05:30 Mm-hmm.
01:05:33 How did you meet him?
01:05:35 Uh...
01:05:37 through Tarek's friend.
01:05:39 Ivan. That's how we
01:05:41 You live there, too?
01:05:45 Just for a little while.
01:05:47 Oh.
01:05:56 So... have you spoken to Tarek?
01:05:58 Yes.
01:06:00 He called me this morning.
01:06:02 He sounded in a good spirit.
01:06:06 I was so afraid this was going to happen.
01:06:09 Tarek used to tease me
01:06:12 But now...
01:06:15 I just don't know what to do.
01:06:19 I miss him so much.
01:06:23 I'm sorry.
01:06:29 Zainab.
01:06:32 I'd like you to do something for me.
01:06:34 I'd like you to show me
01:06:37 somewhere you like to go.
01:06:40 Like what?
01:06:43 Whatever you like.
01:06:45 Okay.
01:06:47 [chuckling]
01:07:04 So what is in Staten Island?
01:07:07 I don't know.
01:07:08 We would just go there
01:07:11 We never got off.
01:07:12 Why?
01:07:14 It was free.
01:07:15 We felt like we were going somewhere.
01:07:19 Oh. That's where the Twin Towers were.
01:07:23 I never saw them, but... Tarek did.
01:07:26 Oh. And...
01:07:28 there's the Statue.
01:07:29 And behind that is Ellis Island.
01:07:33 Sometimes Tarek would point at the Statue
01:07:36 like we're arriving
01:07:40 It was very funny.
01:07:45 Can you go up in the Statue?
01:07:47 Oh, yeah.
01:07:49 I think so.
01:07:51 You haven't been there?
01:07:52 No.
01:07:53 Never?
01:07:54 Nope.
01:07:55 - Oh.
01:07:58 - Excuse me.
01:07:59 Hello?
01:08:01 Hey, Charles.
01:08:04 What's that?
01:08:05 Um, yeah. I'm still in New York.
01:08:10 I'm sorry, Charles.
01:08:13 I said I couldn't make it back!
01:08:16 Well, I'm on a boat.
01:08:18 A boat!
01:08:19 Listen, Charles, I'll explain it to you
01:08:22 But I have to go now,
01:08:24 Bye.
01:08:36 [Tarek]
01:08:38 Yes.
01:08:39 [chuckling]
01:08:40 - My mother, too?
01:08:44 You know that they don't even have
01:08:47 They just have a room
01:08:50 Really?
01:08:51 Some crazy stuff, man.
01:08:55 And they seemed to get along...
01:08:57 Zainab and my mother?
01:08:58 Yes. I think your mother
01:09:04 My mother's not going home, is she?
01:09:05 I don't think so.
01:09:09 I know she's thinking about my father.
01:09:12 Why?
01:09:16 He spent seven years in jail in Syria
01:09:17 because of something
01:09:21 By the time
01:09:26 [Tarek]
01:09:28 That's why we moved here.
01:09:34 Would you like a glass of wine?
01:09:35 No, thank you.
01:09:44 [wine pouring]
01:09:48 Mouna. Um...
01:09:51 I need to go back to Connecticut
01:09:55 How long will you be gone?
01:09:57 Um, I don't know yet. I...
01:10:00 I'll try to get back
01:10:05 Walter, you don't have
01:10:08 I'm sure you're busy.
01:10:13 I'll see what I can do.
01:10:21 Dinner will be ready soon.
01:10:22 Oh. Okay.
01:10:37 Walter. Do you go to Broadway?
01:10:41 No, not really.
01:10:44 Tarek sent me the CD
01:10:49 I think I know every word.
01:10:57 Tarek is teaching me the drum.
01:11:00 Really? How is that going?
01:11:03 Well, I... I sound a lot better
01:11:04 when he's playing with me.
01:11:12 How's your teaching?
01:11:14 My teaching?
01:11:15 Yes.
01:11:16 It's fine.
01:11:18 How many classes do you have?
01:11:21 Well, I have a lighter schedule
01:11:25 Your book?
01:11:26 What is it about?
01:11:29 Well, it... covers quite a bit,
01:11:33 You're almost finished?
01:11:34 [sigh] I'm close.
01:11:36 Ahem.
01:11:40 You don't like
01:11:42 Mmm, it's, uh... just not a process
01:11:44 that's easy to talk about
01:11:52 Oh.
01:11:59 I shouldn't have
01:12:02 It's okay.
01:12:23 - I'll get it, sir.
01:12:27 [sigh] Well...
01:12:28 um, you have my number
01:12:31 Thank you. I'll be fine.
01:12:33 [horn honks]
01:12:35 Here.
01:12:36 Thank you.
01:12:38 Have a safe trip.
01:12:39 Thanks.
01:12:40 Good-bye.
01:12:41 Good-bye.

01:13:18 Good afternoon.
01:13:26 Hi, Mouna. It's Walter.
01:13:28 Uh, no. I was, uh, just checking in
01:13:33 Okay. Oh, good.
01:13:35 Uh, you know... working.
01:13:40 Okay. So... good.
01:13:44 Good night. [chuckles]

01:15:27 Walter.
01:15:29 Hello.
01:15:30 I didn't expect you so soon.
01:15:34 Um, I just was cleaning a bit.
01:15:37 [music stops]
01:15:41 I love this CD.
01:15:43 Is it your wife?
01:15:44 Yes.
01:15:47 She was beautiful.
01:15:48 Thank you.
01:15:53 These are different glasses?
01:15:54 Mm-hmm.
01:15:55 They're new?
01:15:56 They are, yeah.
01:15:58 They're nice.
01:15:59 Thank you.
01:16:03 I was going to cook some lunch.
01:16:05 Are you hungry?
01:16:06 Yes. That would be nice.
01:16:09 Okay.
01:16:18 Mouna?
01:16:19 Yes.
01:16:21 Mmm, I was wondering.
01:16:23 Um, uh, Thursday night.
01:16:24 Do you have any plans?
01:16:27 No, Walter. I have no plans.
01:16:30 Okay. Well, then, I thought...
01:16:35 Okay.
01:16:37 Okay.
01:16:46 - [Tarek] They keep moving people.
01:16:48 I don't know. I think
01:16:51 Two Moroccan guys were just moved.
01:16:53 They had no idea.
01:16:55 Suddenly, they were just gone.
01:16:57 Has anyone said anything to you?
01:16:59 No. No one in here knows anything.
01:17:02 This is not fair.
01:17:04 I am not a criminal.
01:17:06 I have committed no crime.
01:17:09 What do they think?
01:17:10 I'm a terrorist?
01:17:12 There are no terrorists in here.
01:17:14 The terrorists have money.
01:17:16 This is just not fair.
01:17:17 - I know.
01:17:35 I'm sorry. I... Um...
01:17:44 [sniffles]
01:17:46 [snorts]
01:17:48 I sit in here at night, and...
01:17:52 I keep thinking about Zainab.
01:17:58 I just want to live my life
01:18:05 What's so wrong about that?
01:18:08 [sniffles]
01:18:12 [traffic rumbles, horn honks]
01:18:14 [Walter]
01:18:16 Okay. Please do.
01:18:17 Yeah. Thank you.
01:18:18 Okay. Bye.
01:18:21 What did he say?
01:18:22 [sigh]
01:18:25 but they can move him
01:18:28 What facility? Where?
01:18:31 He said it could be anywhere.
01:18:33 Upstate Pennsylvania.
01:18:35 There's even one in Louisiana.
01:18:37 Louisiana?
01:18:39 Where they had the floods?
01:18:40 Mm-hmm.
01:18:41 But that's too far.
01:18:42 Yeah.
01:18:46 Did the lawyer say anything else?
01:18:48 No. He didn't know anything else.
01:18:54 It's just like Syria.
01:19:37 [Mouna speaking foreign language]
01:19:44 Okay.
01:19:46 Bye, habibti. Good-bye.
01:19:55 Sorry to keep you waiting.
01:19:56 That's okay. How is he?
01:19:58 He says hello.
01:20:00 He wants to make sure
01:20:03 I am. So...
01:20:06 You look very nice.
01:20:08 Thank you.
01:20:09 You, too.
01:20:11 Thank you.
01:20:32 [Walter]
01:20:35 Thank you, sir.
01:20:36 [sigh]
01:20:37 You ready?
01:20:38 For what?
01:20:39 Well...
01:20:41 uh, I thought we'd go see this.
01:20:45 Really?
01:20:46 Yeah.
01:20:48 Now?
01:20:49 Yeah. Is that okay?
01:20:52 Yes. That's wonderful.
01:20:55 Thank you.
01:20:56 I'm so excited.
01:20:59 Okay. Don't move.
01:21:32 [Mouna]
01:21:33 I think that show
01:21:36 It was a little scary. Yeah.
01:21:37 Yeah.
01:21:41 Are you finished?
01:21:42 Yes. Thank you.
01:21:43 How was everything?
01:21:44 - Great.
01:21:46 Actually, I think
01:21:49 Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't even think to ask.
01:21:51 It's okay.
01:21:52 It's not every night
01:21:56 I'll have a Cabernet.
01:21:57 Cabernet.
01:21:58 Two, please.
01:21:59 Excellent.
01:22:00 Well, I haven't been to the theater
01:22:04 There's a place in Syria called Malula.
01:22:07 It's a very big outdoor theater.
01:22:10 It's beautiful.
01:22:11 We used to take Tarek there
01:22:15 - Here you go. Two Cabernets.
01:22:17 - Thank you.
01:22:20 Well.
01:22:21 Cheers.
01:22:23 - [speaking in foreign language]
01:22:29 Mmm.
01:22:31 Mouna. Um...
01:22:35 I'm taking a leave of absence...
01:22:38 Ahem.
01:22:39 Really? Why?
01:22:41 Well, I thought I might
01:22:47 Walter, you don't
01:22:50 No, I want to.
01:22:53 But you have to be in Connecticut.
01:22:54 You have your teaching, your book.
01:22:57 No, it's fine. Really.
01:22:59 This is not your problem, Walter.
01:23:03 It's okay that you're busy.
01:23:08 I'm not busy.
01:23:11 Not at all.
01:23:13 The truth is I haven't done any real work
01:23:17 But you just
01:23:20 No. No. No, I didn't even write it.
01:23:22 I just read it.
01:23:26 I've been teaching
01:23:28 and it... doesn't mean anything to me.
01:23:31 None of it does.
01:23:36 I pretend.
01:23:40 I pretend that I'm busy,
01:23:47 I'm not doing anything.
01:23:55 I'm sorry.
01:23:57 Don't be.
01:23:58 I really appreciate you telling me this.
01:24:03 [sigh]
01:24:08 Um, Walter.
01:24:11 What would you do if you didn't teach?
01:24:16 I don't know.
01:24:18 It's kind of exciting not to know.
01:24:21 [chuckles]
01:24:25 What time is it?
01:24:27 Uh, 12:30.
01:24:29 My God. Is it?
01:24:30 Yeah. I think that happens
01:24:33 It's...
01:24:35 Thank you, Walter.
01:24:37 It was a lovely evening.
01:24:39 It's the most fun I had in a long time.
01:24:43 Yeah, I told Tarek
01:24:45 I think he was happy about it.
01:24:48 Thank you.
01:24:49 [sigh]
01:24:54 Good night.
01:24:55 Good night.
01:25:08 [cell phone buzzes]
01:25:24 [beep]
01:25:29 There's a message from Tarek.
01:25:31 What did he say?
01:25:33 He said they were moving him.
01:25:35 We should go.
01:25:42 Okay. When do you expect him?
01:25:44 All right. When he gets in,
01:25:46 could you have him
01:25:48 Uh, please.
01:25:50 God, he's still in court.
01:25:52 [sigh] Come on, come on,
01:25:54 [Driver]
01:25:56 I hate this feeling.
01:26:03 [horn honks]
01:26:19 [door closes]
01:26:24 Um... I'm here for bed 38... Tarek Khalil.
01:26:28 Visiting hours start at 5 p.m.
01:26:30 What? I'm sorry. Excuse me?
01:26:31 - Visiting hours are at 5 p.m.
01:26:33 it... I... I understand.
01:26:35 But this is e... extremely urgent.
01:26:36 Could you please check for me?
01:26:40 Thank you, sir. I appreciate it.
01:26:42 [keystroking]
01:26:45 He is no longer with us.
01:26:49 Well... wh... [sigh]
01:26:51 What does that mean?
01:26:52 I'm not sure.
01:26:54 [sigh] What do you mean you're not su...?
01:26:55 I mean was he moved to another facility,
01:26:59 I don't know.
01:27:00 I just know that that detainee
01:27:04 Well, coul... could you please find
01:27:07 I would appreciate it.
01:27:10 - Hold on.
01:27:11 Thank you very much.
01:27:13 Yes. Khalil. 38?
01:27:15 [sigh]
01:27:18 Okay.
01:27:20 Yes.
01:27:22 [hangs up phone]
01:27:24 - Sir?
01:27:25 He's been removed.
01:27:26 Removed to where?
01:27:28 Deported.
01:27:29 Deported?
01:27:32 When?
01:27:34 He was deported this morning.
01:27:36 How can that be?
01:27:38 No, he...
01:27:47 Um... sir, is, uh...
01:27:50 Is there any way that I could contact him?
01:27:52 I don't think so.
01:27:54 You don't think so.
01:27:57 I'm sorry, sir.
01:28:00 Okay.
01:28:01 Now, please step away from the window?
01:28:05 You can contact I.C.
01:28:08 The number's on the wall.
01:28:12 Sir?
01:28:13 Step away from the window, please?
01:28:18 Sir. For the last time,
01:28:51 You can't just take people away like that.
01:28:54 Do you hear me?
01:28:56 He was a good man, a good person.
01:29:00 It's not fair!
01:29:03 We are not just helpless children!
01:29:06 He had a life!
01:29:10 Do you hear me?
01:29:11 Do... I mean do you hear me?
01:29:13 [breathes passionately]
01:29:15 What's the matter with you?
01:29:18 Walter.
01:29:19 What?
01:29:25 Let's go.
01:29:32 Let's go.
01:29:33 There is nothing we can do.
01:29:37 Let's go, please?
01:30:01 He did nothing wrong.
01:30:13 [draws tearful breath]
01:30:21 [sigh]
01:30:33 [no audible dialogue]
01:31:25 Are you okay?
01:31:33 Walter, I need to go back to Syria.
01:31:37 I should be there for Tarek.
01:31:40 When are you going?
01:31:41 Tomorrow.
01:31:43 It's best for me to be there
01:31:48 You won't be able to come back.
01:31:53 I know.
01:31:57 Good night.
01:32:01 Mouna?
01:32:05 I'm sorry.
01:32:07 I am so sorry.
01:32:17 [tap at door]
01:32:19 Yes?
01:32:57 [sigh]
01:33:02 It's my fault what happened to Tarek.
01:33:07 We did receive the letter
01:33:13 I threw it away.
01:33:17 I never told him.
01:33:37 We were here for three years
01:33:44 I had found a job.
01:33:48 Tarek was in school.
01:33:53 Everybody told me not to worry...
01:33:56 the government didn't care.
01:33:59 And it appeared to be true.
01:34:04 And then...
01:34:07 after a time...
01:34:10 you forget.
01:34:15 You think that you really belong.
01:34:23 It's not your fault.
01:34:26 It's not your fault.
01:34:35 Stop.
01:34:53 Zainab and I picked it out specially for you.
01:34:56 Thank you.
01:35:01 Oh. It's very nice.
01:35:04 Let me see it.
01:35:11 I like it.
01:35:12 - So do I.
01:35:15 You look cool.
01:35:16 Cool?
01:35:21 Yes.
01:35:23 You're very cool, Walter.
01:35:37 [P.A.]
01:35:40 now boarding at Gate 3 for Syria.
01:35:43 Delta flight 275, Gate 3 for Syria.
01:36:02 Thank you, Walter.
01:36:05 Thank you for everything.
01:36:07 I don't want you to go.
01:36:12 I don't want to go,
01:36:14 [inhales deeply]
01:36:16 Oh...
01:36:56 [jet engines roaring]
