00:04:32 8th of the month of Zihadjeh
00:04:35 - Hello
00:04:36 - Are you well?
00:04:38 Were you going on foot?
00:04:39 I'd given up waiting for you,
00:04:42 so I started walking
00:04:48 We worked late last night
00:04:52 This is what you asked for.
00:04:54 Chalk?
00:04:55 Yes, but not the chalk you wanted.
00:04:59 This was made by the students.
00:05:02 They didn't sift it very well.
00:05:08 If it doesn't write well,
00:05:12 break it in two
00:05:16 You will find some at the school,
00:05:21 We're not going to school.
00:05:23 Why do you need chalk then?
00:05:26 For the clapboard.
00:05:28 What's that?
00:05:30 It's used to identify shots.
00:05:32 We write on it
00:05:35 I see,
00:05:40 I remember I saw one on the set
00:05:42 I remember,
00:05:46 That's kind of you!
00:05:50 You were perfect in the part.
00:05:53 Oh, it's a part I play every day,
00:05:59 I have a favour to ask of you...
00:06:01 Excuse me, ma'am,
00:06:05 The school system
00:06:08 No, it belongs
00:06:12 It drops us at the factory
00:06:15 on foot to get to Saramarz.
00:06:23 As I was saying...
00:06:25 films, cinema
00:06:31 But...
00:06:33 and all our problems...
00:06:37 Well, if you could possibly
00:06:40 find me a small part
00:06:42 in your film...
00:06:44 - Of course.
00:06:46 Take the short-cut.
00:06:48 - This way?
00:06:59 - You won't forget...
00:07:01 - Good-bye.
00:07:46 Tahereh...
00:07:48 Tahereh...
00:07:51 Miss Tahereh...
00:07:54 - Grandmother...
00:07:57 Hello, grandmother.
00:07:59 - Are you well?
00:08:01 - Where has Tahereh gone?
00:08:05 We were meeting at 7:30.
00:08:06 She left at dawn,
00:08:12 I don't know where she is now.
00:08:17 - So what do I do?
00:08:20 - How are you grandmother?
00:08:23 Come and sit down.
00:08:27 Come up here and sit down near me.
00:08:29 - I'll wait for her here.
00:08:32 She told me
00:08:36 I'm not quite sure,
00:08:41 It's hard to understand...
00:08:43 What did she say exactly?
00:08:47 - What do I do?
00:08:51 At her age, she can't keep still.
00:08:54 You were wrong to arrange
00:08:59 This morning
00:09:04 but she left the water
00:09:08 With my bad legs,
00:09:13 The time it takes to get down there,
00:09:23 Besides, she's forgotten her book.
00:09:28 - Thank you for the water
00:09:32 Yes, please.
00:09:37 You're back at last, are you?
00:09:40 What time do you call this?
00:09:41 I went to see my friend.
00:09:43 It's 6:30
00:09:46 I went to borrow a dress.
00:09:48 - Well? Did you find one?
00:09:51 Let me see.
00:09:58 You're supposed to wear
00:10:05 My friend said it suited me.
00:10:10 I tell her to change the dress,
00:10:15 - You will wear a peasant dress!
00:10:18 You can't just do as you please.
00:10:22 You'll wear a peasant dress,
00:10:24 I won't say it again.
00:10:27 - She said it just needs taking in.
00:10:31 I'll try it on and you'll see.
00:10:38 It's hopeless,
00:10:41 You have to wear a peasant dress.
00:10:46 No one wears them nowadays.
00:10:49 - Pour, please.
00:10:52 Yes, thank you very much.
00:10:54 What did you say?
00:10:57 No one
00:10:59 What about your grandmother?
00:11:04 They're for old people, not me.
00:11:06 I've seen young people wear them.
00:11:09 But they wear peasants,
00:11:13 Students don't wear them.
00:11:16 At school, of course not,
00:11:19 But you have to wear one for us.
00:11:22 How on earth did you bring her up?
00:11:24 She won't stop arguing!
00:11:26 I didn't bring her up, ma'am.
00:11:28 Her mother did, God bless her.
00:11:31 Is something wrong?
00:11:33 Tahereh, that's a pretty dress,
00:11:37 but it's not right for us.
00:11:39 It's the only one I've got.
00:11:42 It's all right, I'll sort it out.
00:11:45 - It's the only one I'll wear.
00:11:49 She can have her mother's dress,
00:11:51 Can I borrow a flower-pot?
00:11:54 - I will bring it back.
00:11:55 No, I prefer this one.
00:12:00 - Thank you. Good-bye.
00:12:17 I'll fetch you at one o'clock.
00:12:19 All right, one o'clock.
00:12:36 Mrs. Shiva!
00:12:52 Hello, how are you?
00:12:56 Yes. But Babak is bringing
00:13:00 - What's your name?
00:13:03 Ahmad what?
00:13:05 Ahmand Ahmadpour.
00:13:08 Careful you don't break the stem.
00:13:11 - Mind the stem!
00:13:14 And the flower too.
00:13:16 Hello
00:13:17 - They're all dry!
00:13:23 Put them in the back
00:13:27 Thanks, boys.
00:13:31 We're going to school.
00:13:36 - I'll give you a lift.
00:13:40 In the tents.
00:13:43 Oh , okay. Good-bye then.
00:13:53 Do you want to come to the set,
00:13:56 Yes...
00:13:57 - Do you know where?
00:14:00 - That's right. Come when you want...
00:14:25 Scene 4, shot 1, take 1.
00:14:28 Action!
00:14:30 Very good... Stay where you are.
00:14:33 - Hello
00:14:41 - Hello
00:14:46 Cut!
00:14:47 Why don't you reply?
00:14:49 She says: "God be with you,"
00:14:52 Then you ask her for water
00:14:54 Take the sack of plaster
00:15:03 Do you understand?
00:15:06 Let's go.
00:15:08 Ready?
00:15:09 Shot 1, take 2.
00:15:11 Very good... Stay where you are.
00:15:14 - Hello
00:15:26 God be with you...
00:15:29 Cut!
00:15:31 Speak! Answer her!
00:15:33 When she greets you,
00:15:38 Take the sack and go down.
00:15:45 Fardhad...
00:15:47 When he greets you,
00:15:50 And then answer him.
00:15:54 Let's go.
00:15:55 - Sound?
00:15:57 Camera?
00:16:00 Shot 1, take 3.
00:16:01 Very good, stay where you are!
00:16:04 - Hello
00:16:12 - Hello
00:16:14 God be with you...
00:16:18 Why don't you say anything?
00:16:19 Have you forgotten?
00:16:21 Come down.
00:16:22 Take down the sack.
00:16:25 Take it and go down!
00:16:33 No sir, I can't do it.
00:16:35 - What?
00:16:38 What's that supposed to mean?
00:16:41 Can you come here a minute?
00:16:42 - What?
00:16:56 What's wrong?
00:16:58 I stammer.
00:17:00 What?
00:17:02 You were speaking fine earlier!
00:17:06 Yes... but...
00:17:11 I start stammering.
00:17:15 Right.
00:17:21 Azim, wait,
00:17:23 - Mrs. Shiva...
00:17:24 Drive him back
00:17:27 Hossein? Who's that?
00:17:28 - Our Hossein, at the camp.
00:17:31 Get in the car, I'll take you back.
00:17:51 - Mrs. Shiva
00:17:52 Rehearse with Hossein in the car,
00:17:55 - Time's short!
00:18:30 Shall we put the camera away?
00:18:32 No, leave it,
00:18:41 Children, you can't come over
00:18:45 but can I cross it?
00:18:47 Yes!... No!... Yes!... No!...
00:18:51 - Well, can I or can't I?
00:19:01 - Haven't you got exams?
00:19:05 What are you doing here then?
00:19:08 We came to see the shoot.
00:19:10 - You came all this way?
00:19:13 - How many kilometers is that?
00:19:18 I'd like to ask you a question.
00:19:20 Ask me!
00:19:21 Wait...
00:19:24 Children, can you tell me
00:19:28 I know! Can I answer?
00:19:31 - Calm down! You, answer me.
00:19:34 Working with one another.
00:19:35 Can I answer?
00:19:37 Helping one another.
00:19:39 It's my turn.
00:19:42 Now let's see if you can tell me...
00:19:45 the capital of Guilan.
00:19:49 - I know! I know!
00:19:58 - Where's Rostam-Abbad?
00:20:05 Near Roudbar
00:20:06 - And what's the speciality of Roudbar?
00:20:22 - Repeat your lines to me.
00:20:24 - Don't worry.
00:20:29 I put the sack of plaster there,
00:20:35 Does it have to be plaster?
00:20:38 Remember you have to do
00:20:42 Okay, fine...
00:20:43 I take the plaster and go upstairs.
00:20:47 "Good luck."
00:20:50 No, she says
00:20:52 She says: "God be with you."
00:20:54 And I answer:
00:20:59 Is that right?
00:21:07 What's going on?
00:21:12 We'll move.
00:21:14 With that car and your bricks,
00:21:17 We'll have it moved soon.
00:21:20 I've got to get through!
00:21:21 You'll get through, Inch' Allah,
00:21:24 You're joking!
00:21:27 So have we! We come from the provinces,
00:21:33 all that just to feed our families.
00:21:36 That's no answer.
00:21:40 We'll ask a worker
00:21:44 But just one!
00:21:46 That's not my problem.
00:21:49 If you're in a hurry,
00:21:51 move the bricks
00:21:54 - We'll all finish faster.
00:21:57 - It's your job.
00:22:01 - You're blocking the road!
00:22:02 You move them.
00:22:08 Ma'am, I'm really sorry.
00:22:10 I'll gladly do anything you ask,
00:22:14 I'm not in building anymore.
00:22:16 I came to appear in your film.
00:22:18 I'll work as an actor,
00:22:57 - Yes?
00:23:01 - Koker? It's behind you.
00:23:04 Carry on a bit,
00:23:06 Hey! Hossein!
00:23:13 Ma'am...
00:23:15 Why ask someone else
00:23:18 when I'm from around here?
00:23:20 Since you no longer
00:23:25 I thought you didn't
00:23:28 You only want only to be an actor...
00:23:30 so I asked someone else.
00:23:40 - Whose turn?
00:23:43 You? No, you're too clever.
00:23:47 Too clever by half.
00:23:49 Right, children,
00:24:02 - Mr. Panahi, are you ready?
00:24:06 Hossein, hurry up!
00:24:20 - Mr. Jafarian?
00:24:24 Mrs. Shiva, hurry up.
00:24:28 We're rehearsing.
00:24:30 Mr. Kheradmand, hurry.
00:24:35 Ready when you are.
00:24:37 Shot 1, take 1.
00:24:40 Very good... Stay where you are!
00:24:43 - Hello!
00:24:55 Hello...
00:24:59 Cut!
00:25:01 Hossein,
00:25:06 Pick up the sack
00:25:20 Farhad, don't look at him too much
00:25:24 - Understand?
00:25:26 Shot 1, take 2
00:25:28 Very good... Stay where you are!
00:25:31 - Hello
00:25:43 Hello...
00:25:46 Cut!
00:25:49 Mrs. Shiva,
00:25:51 Of course I did,
00:25:54 Take the sack back down.
00:25:57 When I say hello to her,
00:26:04 She refuses to greet me.
00:26:08 - She doesn't say hello?
00:26:35 Right, we've stopped
00:26:38 so tell me, what' s going on
00:26:51 Tell me.
00:26:54 Well, it was at Eynollah's,
00:26:59 where I used to work.
00:27:02 This young girl used to live
00:27:08 She was sitting on the stairs,
00:27:13 She was there, just opposite me,
00:27:17 she looked so gentle,
00:27:23 I conceived the notion
00:27:30 Then I went back to work
00:27:32 When I went to wash
00:27:35 I saw her mother
00:27:43 I spoke to her about her daughter.
00:27:46 Why?
00:27:48 I don't know.
00:27:51 I wasn't serious enough,
00:27:54 that I wanted to spread rumours,
00:27:58 that I didn't want her really,
00:28:01 Fine and then?
00:28:02 That evening I went to change my clothes
00:28:09 coming to work the next day.
00:28:12 I think she asked Eynollah
00:28:16 and then offered him a good worker
00:28:22 That was the night
00:28:26 Eynollah's family
00:28:31 and the family of this girl,
00:28:36 - Tahereh's parents?
00:28:41 - And then?
00:28:45 On the third day of mourning,
00:28:54 There were so many people there
00:28:57 On the 7th day of mourning,
00:29:02 I saw her at her parents' grave.
00:29:08 but her grandmother
00:29:12 Before I was able
00:29:15 they had disappeared.
00:29:19 You haven't seen her since?
00:29:21 - Never?
00:29:23 Only once,
00:29:28 And what did you do?
00:29:29 On the 40th day, I went back
00:29:33 Her grandmother was there.
00:29:36 I said to myself
00:29:38 knew now that the world is cruel,
00:29:43 and that life is short,
00:29:48 that they wouldn't disappoint me.
00:29:53 If these people
00:29:56 perhaps all this
00:29:58 The earthquake may not have happened.
00:30:00 I thought
00:30:05 had destroyed all these houses.
00:30:08 Could I buy myself a house
00:30:15 Besides,
00:30:18 I wanted to relieve my sorrow
00:30:23 and pour it out on them.
00:30:26 I said to them:
00:30:28 has a house anymore,
00:30:34 on an equal footing.
00:30:37 but neither have you!"
00:30:39 I see.
00:30:48 Since I was 11 years old
00:30:50 I had worked in other people's houses.
00:30:53 It was your trade?
00:30:54 My trade?
00:30:55 I worked with a mason.
00:30:57 What exactly did you do?
00:30:58 I laid bricks,
00:31:04 I did that sort of work.
00:31:06 People have always said to me:
00:31:08 "No house, no woman."
00:31:10 Since I didn't have a house,
00:31:13 no one would give me a woman
00:31:15 It takes time
00:31:18 And you haven't seen her since?
00:31:21 I have.
00:31:25 but the one before,
00:31:28 the day I saw you on the set.
00:31:33 And?
00:31:34 I asked
00:31:38 I didn't want to see them again,
00:31:45 Where?
00:31:47 To the cemetery. I saw them there.
00:32:15 Is he here again?
00:32:17 He won't leave us in peace!
00:32:23 - The key?
00:34:06 - Hello
00:34:09 - Are you well?
00:34:11 - Can I have your answer?
00:34:14 Apparently your granddaughter
00:34:18 You want my answer?
00:34:20 What does that mean?
00:34:23 Everyone says
00:34:25 and you stubbornly keep on saying:
00:34:29 The answer's no!
00:34:32 Give me at least two reasons.
00:34:35 You're illiterate,
00:34:38 The important thing is manners,
00:34:41 You may be kind and understanding,
00:34:46 She chose me.
00:34:47 You're stopping us living together.
00:34:49 The answer's no.
00:34:50 You've got no house, you're illiterate,
00:34:55 Mind your own business!
00:34:56 You won't have her!
00:35:02 Otherwise,
00:35:07 If her parents were still alive,
00:35:12 But with you, nothing!
00:35:16 If they were alive,
00:35:19 Even them!
00:35:26 Are you sure that's also the way
00:35:30 My answer's no!
00:35:46 Cut!
00:35:49 Wait a minute!
00:35:53 What are you doing there?
00:35:56 Run fast, come over here...
00:35:58 A little faster!
00:35:59 Come quickly over here.
00:36:01 Back here...
00:36:03 We're filming
00:36:11 Sound.
00:36:15 Camera.
00:36:16 Scene 7, shot 2, take 2
00:36:19 Action!
00:36:55 After I take Tahereh back,
00:36:57 can I go and fetch the one...
00:36:58 That...
00:36:59 Who?
00:37:11 After I take Tahereh back
00:37:14 - Who's Poursadeghi?
00:37:18 Ask Tahereh, not me.
00:37:19 She's better for the part.
00:37:21 But I can't do anything
00:37:24 She doesn't listen,
00:37:27 It's obvious. He's the problem!
00:37:29 With Azim,
00:37:32 Let's avoid the problems.
00:37:36 - Do what you can.
00:37:41 - Try anyway.
00:39:03 Hossein, fetch my cigarettes
00:39:06 - What?
00:39:09 All right.
00:39:10 - Hello Bagheri.
00:39:13 - How are you?
00:39:15 I'm delighted.
00:39:17 That smells good.
00:39:20 Mirza ghassemi.
00:39:23 The crew asked for it for dinner.
00:39:25 - Bagheri?
00:39:29 What was the dish
00:39:32 That was torshi tareh.
00:39:35 How do you make that?
00:39:36 - Torshi Tareh?
00:39:40 - I'd rather you told me...
00:39:42 Isn't your wife jealous
00:39:46 She used to be once, yes.
00:39:51 - Really?
00:39:53 She was killed in the earthquake.
00:39:55 God bless her.
00:39:57 - You're alone now?
00:40:00 - Cigarette?
00:40:06 - Bagheri?
00:40:10 I mean, now...
00:40:14 you're not thinking
00:40:17 I don't want to remarry.
00:40:20 Why? You're all alone.
00:40:21 I lived with her for fifty years.
00:40:28 It wouldn't be right.
00:40:32 But your children
00:40:35 It would be nice for you
00:40:39 My life's coming to an end...
00:40:41 You're joking,
00:40:46 A lot of women here have lost their husbands,
00:40:53 Maybe,
00:40:57 After fifty years with someone,
00:41:05 it's not right to remarry
00:41:45 - Hossein!
00:41:47 - Bring me a clean dish!
00:41:55 Are you coming, Hossein?
00:41:58 We didn't look after our parents,
00:42:01 look after us?
00:42:03 Who do they do?
00:42:08 One works in an oil company,
00:42:12 Yes, I see...
00:42:14 He goes to the island of Lavan...
00:42:18 to the port of Guenaveh.
00:42:22 - That's a hot area.
00:42:24 Your other son who works
00:42:28 does he have children?
00:42:30 Yes, three.
00:42:32 And your two sons who are here,
00:42:35 They're drivers.
00:42:37 One drives a truck and
00:42:42 How did it go?
00:42:45 She refuses to listen.
00:42:47 She said
00:42:50 and that she has to review
00:42:52 I said: "No problem, bring
00:42:55 Apparently, she doesn't want
00:42:59 She doesn't want to.
00:43:01 You have to change one or the other.
00:43:05 Either the girl or Hossein.
00:43:10 Hossein,
00:43:14 - They've been parched for 2 days!
00:43:16 - Who was it I told then?
00:43:19 Mohammadi says
00:43:21 and you tell me
00:43:26 What do I have to do?
00:43:27 I'd have done it
00:43:30 - You forgot.
00:43:34 I was a bit crafty.
00:43:37 I told her to hurry up
00:43:40 or I'd go and fetch Poursadeghi.
00:43:43 She reacted immediately
00:43:46 "I'll see, come back tomorrow."
00:43:48 In any case,
00:43:51 change either one or the other.
00:43:53 The girl could cause problems later.
00:43:56 We'll find a solution.
00:43:58 What you were saying, Bagheri?
00:44:17 Hossein, get up.
00:44:20 Hossein, that's enough.
00:44:25 It's late,
00:44:27 Hello, ma'am.
00:44:29 - Hello.
00:44:31 Hossein, it is very late.
00:44:33 Wake up!
00:44:36 You got up late too.
00:44:38 - Hossein didn't let me sleep.
00:44:41 He was raving: "My white socks,
00:44:45 With the wind, I couldn't sleep.
00:44:50 Go and make some tea.
00:45:04 Mr. Karimi?
00:45:13 - Hello.
00:45:19 - Hello, Mrs. Shiva.
00:45:21 - Is Mr. Rhafari up?
00:45:25 Mr. Samak Bachi?
00:45:27 It's very late.
00:45:30 - Hello, ma'am.
00:45:38 Mr. Jafarian?
00:45:43 I am awake.
00:45:46 - Mr. Jafarian?
00:45:50 Hello.
00:45:52 Mr. Kheradmand?
00:45:56 Yes, I'm here.
00:45:59 - Hello, Farhad.
00:46:06 If you don't need Hossein,
00:46:09 let him sleep a little.
00:46:12 I don't understand.
00:46:14 I am awake!
00:46:19 Clear away the cups, wash them
00:46:22 I am awake
00:46:25 Was I asleep?
00:46:27 Rectification...
00:46:29 Hossein was up early!
00:46:32 Okay!
00:46:34 Poor thing, he's worried.
00:46:39 Me too, I found it hard getting up.
00:46:42 Didn't you have a good night?
00:46:45 No, I had a sprung mattress.
00:46:47 My back hurt,
00:46:49 it was damp on the ground.
00:46:53 I spent the night as best I could.
00:46:55 But the pure morning air
00:46:58 Here, breathing is a real pleasure.
00:47:01 I think they've all left
00:47:06 Most of them were killed
00:47:09 and the survivors moved away
00:47:11 to live along the side
00:47:15 They preferred the highway
00:47:19 I guess so...
00:47:21 They were right, poor things.
00:47:23 After the quake,
00:47:26 The roads were blocked
00:47:30 The survivors left.
00:47:32 Besides... you can't live
00:47:35 You need other things too and
00:47:39 And from there,
00:47:42 That's why
00:47:44 Let's stop churning out cliches.
00:47:48 I'd like to tell you something
00:47:51 If you greet the souls
00:47:54 they answer you.
00:47:56 - Their souls?
00:47:58 Hello.
00:48:00 If you say it that way,
00:48:03 Say it a lot louder,
00:48:05 Hello!
00:48:08 Did you hear?
00:48:10 - You're having me on.
00:48:13 It's obvious, it's an echo.
00:48:16 If you think it's an echo,
00:48:18 then you'll see if they reply.
00:48:20 What can I say?
00:48:22 Pouya! Pouya!
00:48:25 Yes, dad?
00:48:27 Nothing,
00:48:31 One other thing: they only answer
00:48:35 Listen...
00:48:36 Good-bye!
00:48:41 And if you say good-bye
00:48:44 they won't answer
00:48:46 Don't forget:
00:48:48 I'm going.
00:48:52 Farhad,
00:48:54 give this to Mr. Panahi.
00:48:57 Good-bye.
00:49:45 Sit here in front.
00:49:47 I'll sit next to Hossein.
00:49:51 Everything okay, Hossein?
00:49:54 Yes, thank you.
00:49:56 - You don't look too happy.
00:50:00 Maybe you're tired?
00:50:04 I hear you didn't sleep well
00:50:07 I did, but I fell asleep late.
00:50:09 You don't look like someone
00:50:13 but like someone who's upset.
00:50:15 Isn't that right?
00:50:17 No, I'm not upset.
00:50:19 Oh yes, you are.
00:50:22 You know, sir,
00:50:24 I don't like to speak ill
00:50:29 but inhabitants of dead Poshteh
00:50:32 than little Miss Tahereh.
00:50:35 What do you mean?
00:50:37 When you greeted them
00:50:41 That's true.
00:50:42 I greeted her three times yesterday.
00:50:46 Usually, you only say hello once.
00:50:48 If there's no reply,
00:50:51 - It's your fault.
00:50:54 I told you to say it...
00:50:56 just once!
00:51:06 I thought
00:51:10 maybe she would reply...
00:51:14 I won't say hello
00:51:23 Whay about today?
00:51:26 Will she be there?
00:51:28 I don't know. Maybe...
00:51:30 Yes?
00:51:32 Stop for these people.
00:51:39 Hossein, let them in.
00:52:20 Where were you coming from?
00:52:23 I don't speak your dialect.
00:52:25 We were at the public baths.
00:52:27 Where are the baths?
00:52:29 Beyond Chima.
00:52:34 There's another over there.
00:52:37 There are shops there,
00:52:42 There's a baker's
00:52:46 Isn't it hard for you
00:52:50 Maybe, but it's quieter
00:52:54 Won't you catch cold up here?
00:52:58 We are cold
00:53:03 The cold, the heat
00:53:05 don't bother us.
00:53:07 We can't change it,
00:53:08 even if it's hard.
00:53:10 Over there it's quieter,
00:53:14 - Is she your daughter?
00:53:19 She doesn't look like you.
00:53:21 She looks like her brother.
00:53:24 Her brother
00:53:28 So she must look like her father.
00:53:32 - Where's her father now?
00:53:36 - During the earthquake?
00:53:40 God bless him...
00:53:44 Do you think
00:53:46 she'd like to be in our film?
00:53:48 - Do you want to be in our film?
00:53:54 - Why?
00:53:56 It's not difficult...
00:53:58 She just has to wash dishes
00:54:01 Surely she can do that?
00:54:03 Couldn't you do that?
00:54:09 What's your name?
00:54:12 Look at me.
00:54:15 Excuse me, sir,
00:54:17 but here people don't give
00:54:20 to a stranger.
00:54:30 Tell me, are there still people
00:54:34 Very few. Only those
00:54:38 The others have moved down
00:54:41 - Do you have cattle too?
00:54:44 Why stay then?
00:54:45 The edge of the highway
00:54:49 It's not quiet.
00:54:52 Where do you come from?
00:54:55 We all come
00:54:57 - Taleche-Tolab?
00:54:58 Back there, we had flies,
00:55:02 trees, rice fields, silk!
00:55:06 - Flies?
00:55:08 We had to abandon everything
00:55:11 But giving up this place
00:55:13 to live by the road on tarmac...
00:55:17 Have you ever been
00:55:19 Taleche? No.
00:55:22 If you had, you wouldn't ask
00:55:27 It's no place to live.
00:55:30 All that smoke and asphalt
00:55:34 Indeed.
00:55:35 Thanks a lot,
00:55:38 Mrs. Shiva,
00:55:40 let them off here.
00:55:45 Grandmother,
00:55:49 We haven't got one!
00:55:51 Give it to me anyway,
00:55:53 We haven't got an address.
00:55:56 - You'll see why.
00:55:59 - Good-bye, sir.
00:56:01 Grandmother, come here.
00:56:03 Mrs. Shiva...
00:56:05 take down her address.
00:56:07 - Yes?
00:56:10 Nowhere! Over there...
00:56:14 We haven't got a phone.
00:56:16 - I don't want your phone number.
00:56:20 We live behind the tree.
00:56:23 We've got no address, nothing.
00:56:25 - What's your name?
00:56:29 - If I need you, will you be there?
00:56:32 - My house is over there.
00:56:34 - Good-bye.
00:56:53 What did you want that woman?
00:56:56 Her...
00:57:00 I was thinking of her daughter
00:57:03 for the scene at the spring.
00:57:04 If it doesn't work,
00:57:06 I've also got an idea about Hossein.
00:57:09 What do you think, Hossein?
00:57:13 Her? I'm not interested.
00:57:15 Why?
00:57:20 Yes, she may be pretty,
00:57:23 but she's illiterate.
00:57:24 - How do you know that?
00:57:27 They've had no education.
00:57:29 When I get married
00:57:33 if my wife is illiterate like me,
00:57:36 who'll help the children
00:57:39 I see.
00:57:41 Maybe she'd get on better with you,
00:57:45 I don't know how to read,
00:57:48 find someone who's educated,
00:57:51 and sociable too,
00:57:54 so that one of us
00:57:57 can help the children
00:58:01 and all their exams.
00:58:04 If we're both illiterate,
00:58:07 life will be impossible!
00:58:09 So you don't want her
00:58:16 But Tahereh doesn't want you
00:58:20 Why are you annoyed then?
00:58:24 I'm not annoyed!
00:58:26 Yes you are,
00:58:30 I think...
00:58:33 if land-owners married land-owners,
00:58:39 and illiterates married illiterates,
00:58:43 It's much better
00:58:45 if people who read
00:58:49 rich people marry poor people,
00:58:53 homeless people
00:58:57 So that everyone...
00:58:59 can help each other out.
00:59:01 If two people marry
00:59:03 and end up with two houses,
00:59:06 they can't have their head in one
00:59:10 Am I right or wrong?
00:59:13 Indeed, they can't do that,
00:59:16 but they can live in one
00:59:20 Can't they?
00:59:26 That's possible.
00:59:53 Tahereh?
00:59:56 Miss Tahereh?
01:00:02 Grandmother?
01:00:47 Scene 14, shot 1, take 1
01:00:50 Action!
01:00:51 Tahereh...
01:00:53 Tahereh, where did you put
01:00:56 Look in your clothes,
01:00:58 I already looked,
01:01:01 Maybe near the fireplace.
01:01:03 They're not there either.
01:01:05 I don't know what you do
01:01:08 I know!
01:01:11 I'll gladly go and look
01:01:12 but I know they're not there!
01:01:16 But since you say so, fine,
01:01:19 I'll go and look in my shoes...
01:01:24 Ah, the white socks are here!
01:01:29 You look
01:01:32 That's right!
01:01:33 - How long ago?
01:01:35 Five days or five months?
01:01:38 Five days!
01:01:40 - The night of the tremor?
01:01:43 One day later.
01:01:46 Hossein...
01:01:47 Why lower your head?
01:01:51 Let's do it again.
01:01:53 - Sound?
01:01:55 - Recording?
01:01:57 Camera!
01:01:58 Scene 14, shot 1, take 2.
01:02:00 Action!
01:02:02 Tahereh, where did you put
01:02:05 Look in your clothes.
01:02:07 I already looked,
01:02:12 - Maybe near the fireplace.
01:02:15 I don't know what you do
01:02:18 You must have put them
01:02:20 I'm sure they're not there.
01:02:24 I'll go and look in my shoes...
01:02:26 But I know they're not there.
01:02:33 Ah, the white socks are here!
01:02:36 You look
01:02:38 Yes.
01:02:40 How long ago?
01:02:42 Five days.
01:02:44 - Five days or five months?
01:02:49 - The night of the tremor?
01:02:53 All right...
01:02:55 What's going on?
01:02:57 Hey, don't pour any water?
01:02:58 - I was watering the flowers.
01:03:01 Look to see
01:03:04 I'm not saying
01:03:07 - But look below first!
01:03:12 So many people were buried
01:03:14 a few drops of water on my head
01:03:18 Don't yell at her!
01:03:21 There can't have been
01:03:25 for you to go and get married
01:03:29 There were. Cousins,
01:03:32 All told,
01:03:36 Cut!
01:03:37 It's 65!
01:03:39 No, sir. I lost 25 people.
01:03:41 No, it's 65! Start again.
01:03:43 Hossein, get ready.
01:03:44 Ahmad, wait a second.
01:03:46 Go on, Ahmad,
01:03:49 Quick... Ready to go?
01:03:51 Ready?
01:03:53 Faster!
01:03:55 They're rolling.
01:03:57 Hossein, ready?
01:03:58 Wait a minute,
01:04:02 We'll have to wait five minutes.
01:04:10 Excuse me, while we wait,
01:04:13 There's a noise.
01:04:17 Let me listen first.
01:04:22 Do you want a close shot?
01:04:26 Wait, I'm listening to the sound.
01:04:39 Tahereh...
01:04:41 When I ask about the socks,
01:04:44 don't go thinking it's me.
01:04:47 It's what the director wants.
01:04:50 I am not the kind
01:04:55 "Where are my socks?"
01:04:57 If I get married,
01:05:01 to put away my socks,
01:05:04 my clothes and all my things!
01:05:09 I want to get married
01:05:13 not to have you cook for me
01:05:16 or look after my clothes
01:05:19 I'd like you to carry on studying
01:05:23 while I work
01:05:28 The only thing I want...
01:05:33 is your happiness.
01:05:38 Okay? We're ready.
01:05:41 Is your heart with me?
01:05:44 Tell me.
01:05:46 Scene 14, shot 1, scene 3
01:05:48 Action!
01:05:53 Why doesn't he start?
01:05:54 - Why don't you start?
01:05:58 Where did you put my socks?
01:06:00 Look in your clothes.
01:06:02 I already looked!
01:06:04 No, they're not there.
01:06:06 Maybe near the fireplace.
01:06:08 The fireplace?
01:06:11 I don't know what you do
01:06:14 Look in your shoes.
01:06:16 They're not in the shoes either,
01:06:19 I know they're not there...
01:06:23 I'll gladly have a look,
01:06:25 Since you say so, fine.
01:06:29 Ah , they are here,
01:06:34 You look
01:06:36 Yes.
01:06:37 How long ago?
01:06:39 Five days.
01:06:41 - Five days or five months?
01:06:47 The night of the tremor?
01:06:50 No, one day later.
01:06:56 Hey, don't pour any water!
01:06:58 I was watering the flowers, sorry!
01:06:59 You can water them but check to see
01:07:04 - Sorry!
01:07:07 So many people were buried
01:07:09 a few drops of water on my head
01:07:15 Tell me...
01:07:17 There can't have been
01:07:19 in your family
01:07:22 There were. Cousins,
01:07:24 aunts, uncles...
01:07:27 there must be 25 dead...
01:07:29 Not! Not 25! 65!
01:07:32 - You have to say 65 people.
01:07:35 But I swear I only lost 25!
01:07:39 Well say 65 anyway.
01:07:41 - We need new film.
01:07:44 Go back up.
01:07:46 Esmail, untie the ropes.
01:07:49 The shadow has to be there.
01:08:04 Mrs. Shiva,
01:08:08 Whose pen is this?
01:08:20 We haven't yet had
01:08:24 or talk together.
01:08:26 I've only spoken to your mother
01:08:32 But old people don't understand
01:08:35 what young people feel.
01:08:40 I want to know... if your heart...
01:08:43 is with me or not.
01:08:49 That's right.
01:08:52 read your book and
01:08:55 They're busy directing.
01:09:00 If you dare not say yes
01:09:03 turn the page of your book,
01:09:16 The problem, I think, is the house.
01:09:19 So I'll go andl see the owner
01:09:21 and talk to him
01:09:23 so that he'll give me this house.
01:09:26 It won't cost a lot.
01:09:31 We'll be able to live here
01:09:33 because it brings us luck.
01:09:35 Ever since we got here,
01:09:37 flowers have bloomed inside,
01:09:40 flowers to wish us welcome.
01:09:44 We don't need
01:09:48 We've done that shot.
01:09:52 I'll ask them for that plaster
01:09:57 I can turn this house
01:10:00 into a very beautiful place.
01:10:02 I'll put a window over there.
01:10:04 When you wake in the morning,
01:10:06 and the mountains
01:10:09 and mountains of opposite
01:10:12 will make your heart joyful.
01:10:14 I swore that I'd never do
01:10:18 If I have to do it,
01:10:20 But I want to know
01:10:25 Don't worry about the others.
01:10:28 If you turn a page,
01:10:32 I'll have my reply.
01:10:43 Mr. Jafarian, we're shooting.
01:10:47 Sound.
01:10:49 Camera.
01:10:51 Scene 14, shot 1, take 4
01:10:53 Action!
01:10:56 - Hossein! Hossein!
01:10:58 Why don't you say anything?
01:11:02 Tahereh!
01:11:04 Where are my white socks?
01:11:06 Look in your clothes.
01:11:09 I already looked.
01:11:12 Maybe near the fireplace.
01:11:14 They're not there.
01:11:16 I don't know what you do
01:11:19 You must have put them
01:11:21 In my shoes?
01:11:23 But since you say so, fine.
01:11:26 I'll go and look in my shoes.
01:11:31 Oh! They are in my shoes!
01:11:35 You look
01:11:38 Yes.
01:11:39 How long ago?
01:11:41 Five days.
01:11:43 Five days or five months?
01:11:45 Five days!
01:11:47 You mean the night of the tremor?
01:11:50 One day later.
01:11:57 Hey, stop pouring water!
01:11:59 Sorry, I was watering the flowers.
01:12:00 You can water them,
01:12:04 All right. Sorry.
01:12:05 Don't yell at her. So many people
01:12:09 a few drop of water on my head
01:12:12 won't harm me...
01:12:15 There can't have been
01:12:17 in your family for you
01:12:21 There were.
01:12:23 aunts, uncles...
01:12:25 they must be 65 dead...
01:12:27 I thought,
01:12:30 one will say to wait
01:12:33 until the third day of mourning,
01:12:37 another the fortieth,
01:12:39 or even the whole year!
01:12:43 If we'd listened to them,
01:12:46 So we decided to marry,
01:12:49 and get it over with.
01:12:51 - You brought her here?
01:12:52 No, not here...
01:12:54 We've been her three days.
01:12:56 At first, we lived under
01:12:59 What? A sheet of palastic?
01:13:01 You mean plastic?
01:13:03 I had bought 20 yards
01:13:06 I used it for something else.
01:13:08 I stuck four feet in the ground
01:13:11 made a roof to protect us
01:13:14 And we moved in beneath it.
01:13:16 - It was your wedding room?
01:13:21 - What did you do after?
01:13:24 - For food?
01:13:26 Well, we didn't have
01:13:29 I thought we'd go and look
01:13:32 at the place where we used to live
01:13:34 to see if I could find any.
01:13:37 I looked through the rubble
01:13:40 and I found a pot,
01:13:44 We washed them...
01:13:46 and brought them back
01:13:49 Then I went to the bazaar,
01:13:51 to see if I could find
01:13:55 I saw two trucks
01:13:58 parked alongside the highway.
01:14:01 One was giving out tents
01:14:05 We got there too late for the tents,
01:14:08 but we managed to get
01:14:10 We washed them.
01:14:13 I made myself a wooden skewer
01:14:16 and I put the tomatoes on it.
01:14:19 I grilled them and we ate them.
01:14:21 - As your wedding banquet?
01:14:24 Cut!
01:14:26 That was good. We've finished.
01:14:30 Hossein, do us a favour
01:14:49 - Have some.
01:15:40 Reza, bring that box over.
01:16:40 This is how it'll be.
01:16:43 Sometimes, I'll serve the tea,
01:16:47 sometimes you.
01:16:49 That's the way...
01:16:52 I see married life.
01:16:56 That's what life is!
01:16:58 - Hossein!
01:17:01 Mr. Nazari?
01:17:05 Put one of the flower-pots here.
01:17:20 Hossein, come and give us a hand.
01:17:23 Hossein is tired,
01:17:26 Mr. Hossein won't dirty his hands
01:17:32 We shouldn't either.
01:17:36 He's decided not to be
01:17:37 a mason anymore.
01:17:38 Mrs. Shiva is right.
01:17:40 I swore I'd never
01:17:44 If I ever do it again,
01:17:48 It's not a bad job these days.
01:17:50 I could easily make 1,500 tomans
01:17:56 1,500 toumans a day,
01:17:59 We can put by 10,000 tomans
01:18:02 and transport and we can keep...
01:18:05 - Hossein?
01:18:07 - Where are you?
01:18:09 - Where's your jacket?
01:18:11 - Go and put it on.
01:18:13 - Faster than that.
01:18:16 Are you ready?
01:18:17 - Start the sound.
01:18:19 Camera.
01:18:21 - Scene 14, shot 2, take 1.
01:18:29 Did they know,
01:18:32 Well, as long as we're living,
01:18:34 we have to start a family.
01:18:36 Perhaps the next quake
01:18:39 - Am I wrong, sir?
01:18:44 Look, you forgot this.
01:18:50 Cut!
01:18:51 Why "look"?
01:18:54 "Mr. Hossein."
01:18:56 Say : "Mr. Hossein, you forgot this."
01:18:59 Do it again.
01:19:00 Scene 14, shot 2, take 2.
01:19:02 Action!
01:19:04 Did they know,
01:19:07 Well, as long as we're living,
01:19:10 Perhaps the next quake
01:19:13 - Am I wrong, sir?
01:19:17 Hossein, you forgot this.
01:19:21 He hasn't held his hand out yet,
01:19:26 Miss Tahereh,
01:19:30 Do it again.
01:19:32 - Ready?
01:19:35 - Recording.
01:19:38 Shot 2, take 3
01:19:40 Action!
01:19:41 Did they know,
01:19:44 Well, as long as we're living,
01:19:47 Perhaps the next quake
01:19:51 - Am I wrong, sir?
01:19:54 Hossein, you forgot this.
01:19:56 Cut!
01:19:57 Why "Hossein"?
01:20:00 How many times
01:20:03 Shot 2, take 4
01:20:05 Did they know,
01:20:08 Well, as long as we're living,
01:20:12 Perhaps the next quake
01:20:15 - An I wrong, sir?
01:20:21 Hossein, you forgot this.
01:20:22 Cut!
01:20:23 Tahereh,
01:20:25 I already told you.
01:20:29 Shot 2, take 5.
01:20:31 Did they know,
01:20:34 Well, as long as we're living,
01:20:38 Perhaps the next quake
01:20:40 - Am I wrong, sir?
01:20:44 Hossein, you forgot this.
01:20:52 Cut!
01:20:57 She still didn't say it!
01:21:04 Excuse me, sir,
01:21:05 do you know
01:21:06 some women here
01:21:07 no longer call
01:21:12 Miss Tahereh
01:21:16 I don't think it will seem
01:21:22 No, it won't seem implausbile.
01:21:24 - One more time?
01:21:25 - Is that a wrap?
01:21:26 Thanks, guys.
01:21:30 Thank you, Mr. Jafarian.
01:21:33 Hossein, put the glasses in the car.
01:21:37 Tahereh, pick up your book.
01:21:39 - For me?
01:21:41 You won't say
01:21:44 Where are the Ahmadpour boys?
01:21:48 Put your flower pots in the car.
01:21:51 Tahereh, take your flower-pot too.
01:21:57 Do you know which one it is?
01:22:01 Hurry...
01:22:04 Wait, let Tahereh come down first.
01:22:09 Put them in the back.
01:22:11 We're leaving now.
01:22:13 Run, children, hurry.
01:22:18 Can't you find your flower-pots?
01:22:21 How many did you have, Babak?
01:22:24 - I had two.
01:22:27 It had two red flowers.
01:22:29 Look for it then, but hurry.
01:22:31 Isn't it the one on the corner?
01:22:33 There. Take it,
01:22:36 Careful you don't break the stem.
01:22:43 Put it in the back somewhere.
01:22:50 Where's Mr. Nazari?
01:22:56 - Is the minibus here yet?
01:23:00 Tahereh, put it in the back
01:23:19 Hossein, change your shoes
01:23:23 All right.
01:23:25 Let's take down the canvas.
01:23:33 Hossein, do me a favour,
01:23:35 untie the ropes.
01:23:38 All right, sir.
01:23:40 Can you serve us some tea?
01:23:43 I just did!
01:23:45 Yes, but Reza drank my cup.
01:23:50 Guys, Hossein's tired,
01:23:53 Put the glasses in the car
01:23:58 Mr. Karimi,
01:24:02 Wait for the minibus.
01:24:05 But there won't be room
01:24:08 What do we do, Mr. Panahi?
01:24:09 Let the children go first,
01:24:13 Let the children go first,
01:24:16 We have to be organized
01:24:18 Three people can take the minibus,
01:24:21 with the flower-pots on their knees
01:24:24 Your things weren't that heavy!
01:24:28 Why didn't you sort something out
01:24:33 Let's be professional!
01:24:39 Why all this gear?
01:24:43 In case it rains.
01:24:45 We have to consider
01:25:02 The children have got exams,
01:25:25 Mrs. Shiva?
01:25:30 Mr. Panahi...
01:25:34 The girl has gone!
01:25:37 - Who has gone?
01:25:45 Tahereh, wait, we'll drive you back.
01:25:48 I know a short-cut.
01:25:49 The minibus will be here
01:26:03 Hossein, can't you see
01:26:06 You're young, you can walk.
01:26:54 Tahereh!
01:27:11 Miss Tahereh...
01:27:14 If you want to give me a reply,
01:27:16 give it to me now.
01:27:17 No, don't listen
01:27:22 Old women only ever think
01:27:25 of rich men,
01:27:30 They only think of them.
01:27:34 But intelligence and understanding
01:27:39 You haven't got a father or mother.
01:27:43 Not just any old crook
01:27:46 I really want to live with you.
01:27:49 God is my witness,
01:27:53 nor anything else,
01:27:56 a place in life,
01:28:00 Come on, let's live together,
01:28:02 Answer me
01:28:06 You've got a tongue!
01:28:08 a tongue to give an answer
01:28:16 If you don't want to answer,
01:28:18 then I want an explanation
01:28:21 at the cemetery.
01:28:23 That look that drew me to you
01:28:26 all this time
01:28:29 I want your reply,
01:28:32 I don't want to speak to her again,
01:28:35 When she got married,
01:28:39 or when your parents
01:28:41 got married,
01:28:45 We're going to work too,
01:28:48 Your grandmother says
01:28:52 I'll work and, little by little,
01:28:56 I'm just as capable as anyone else.
01:28:58 I'm no worse than anyone else
01:29:01 we can live together,
01:29:04 We're just as good as anyone else!
01:29:06 Who had a house around here?
01:29:09 Did they have a house
01:29:13 Even rich people,
01:29:15 when they get married,
01:29:18 They move in with their parents
01:29:21 for a while and find a house.
01:29:23 You have to work hard.
01:29:26 The director said it.
01:29:28 The people who died,
01:29:31 did they know?
01:29:33 He must know
01:29:35 He studied in the city.
01:29:38 In Teheran.
01:29:41 He studied.
01:29:44 Listen to him.
01:29:47 You have to admit it.
01:29:48 And even if you don't agree,
01:29:50 say something!
01:29:53 Give me an answer today
01:29:56 The shoot is over
01:29:58 If you don't answer today,
01:30:01 I won't bother you anymore.
01:30:03 Give me your answer.
01:30:05 If you love me, say:
01:30:08 If you don't,
01:30:11 that look you gave me
01:30:14 Since that look,
01:30:17 I've been saying to myself
01:30:20 but that you're scared
01:30:23 Some girls
01:30:26 Better than you!
01:30:28 I could marry one, but I won't!
01:30:30 I want to marry you,
01:30:33 you who have
01:30:35 What are you thinking?
01:30:40 At least give me
01:30:44 If I'd known it was yours,
01:30:47 I'd have watered it.
01:30:49 Mohammad touch it.
01:30:54 Have you got
01:30:58 Your heart's made of stone!
01:31:25 Do you only think
01:31:30 I'm just doing it for you,
01:31:31 to give you a future.
01:31:34 Hossein can have plenty of women...
01:31:36 I can find one anywhere.
01:31:45 Tahereh, please, answer me.
01:31:48 If someone saw us together,
01:31:50 he'd think we were betrothed.
01:31:53 He'd never guess
01:31:55 that you won't reply
