Go already!

Where is Shamsi?

She's making the kid sleep.

Where the hell was Shamsi

when Farzaneh left?

She was asleep.

She left in the middle of the night?

Oh God!

Does Kazem know?

No.

I'm sure he knows.

No, I swear to God.

Can I tell you something, cousin?

Please don't get upset.

Farzaneh left with Mohsen.

What did she do with Mohsen?

Farzaneh hasn't been breastfed by me at least

15 time to make them brother and sister.

You know that.

Shamsi didn't allow me

to feed her anymore...

...as soon as she realised her

husband had fallen for me.

Please don't do that to yourself

or you'll get a heart attack.

Does Shamsi know?

No.

So she knows!

Why did you get sick?

I love you so much.

One of the Iranian soldiers

imprisoned in Iraq...

...bravely declined to be interviewed

by a foreign female journalist...

...for not respecting

Islamic Hijab rules.

He then convinced her to wear

the hijab for the interview.

Iranian POWs in Iraq

O, lady, Fatima said

this in your honour:

Your most precious

ornament is your Hijab.

The Iraqi regime, against all

international conventions,

...declines to provide the

names of Iranian POWs.

But with the perseverance shown

from the Iranian nation...

...they eventually agreed

to release the list.

Why are they doing this?

Here are the names of Iranian

POWs in the released list.

Alimohammad Aslani

(enlisted in Kamyaran)

Alireza Bayat

(enlisted in Ahwaz)

Reza Jabbari (enlisted in Masjid Soleiman)

Ahad Ayazi (enlisted in Ardebil)

Akbar Azarvara

(enlisted in Khalkhal)

Khalil Dorani

(enlisted in Zanjan)

Oh God!

My son...

My Khalil!

Where is your leg, son?

My sweet son.

In a psychological warfare trick by

the Ba'athi Regime of Saddam Hussain,

...a group of international journalists have

been shown around the Iranian prisoners' camp.

Oh my God...

Thank you, Lord!

O, Solution to All Problems, Imam Ali!

Thank you, Lord!

Shamsi!

Come, Soleiman!

Your son is alive!

Call on all neighbours.

My Khalil is alive!

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord!

O, Solution to All Problems, Imam Ali!

Thank you, Lord!

My Khalil is alive!

Shamsi! Your brother's alive!

Your brother's alive!

Oh God!

Hold on a second, You forgot the sugar.

Aghdas.

Yes?

Did you talk with Hashem?

How many times are you

going to ask that?

I'll let you know when I do.

Hashem is not in a good mood now.

And I don't feel like handling the kids.

But we've even talked to a cleric.

We know that Sharia

allows their marriage.

I don't know what the problem is now.

Is she at her aunt's?

Yeah, she's too afraid to come back.

I've called Mohsen too

to come back from Bijar.

I always protect her, and yet she

just leaves without telling me.

She'd wanted to talk to you late

at night, but she got too shy.

Being in love makes you do crazy things.

She's the crazy one, why

didn't you tell me?

What does this do in there?

How do I know?

You probably dropped

in the rice container!

Why me? You did it yourself!

Whatever! Thank God we found it.

I was so worried about the old man.

Take these.

All right. Oh God...

Get yourself together; that doesn't

look good in front of all the people.

Did you take them all?

Put them on more quickly.

But no one goes to school today.

I don't know. Say that to your dad.

Hi there, Kazem!

Hi.

Why are you standing outside?

Come on in, please.

Congratulations.

Thank you. I hope he comes back soon.

Yes, come in please.

No, I'm waiting for Alireza;

we're going to school.

Alireza is getting ready.

Come on in.

You're not a stranger.

Come in, please.

I'll deliver the food to neighbours.

Here, here's some food.

Come on, son.

We'll miss out on the prayers.

He could skip today.

Look at his face!

Don't start again.

He looks perfectly fine.

But no one goes to

school today, dad.

I haven't even bought any ink.

What do you mean, no one?

You mean Farid?

You want to end up like that man?

Let's go.

Let him skip just one day.

It's no big deal.

If I don't know how to treat my own son,

how can I expect to treat the other kids right?

I've told everyone to come to

school till the final day.

And you want me to let

my own son stay home?

So he should go for your sake!

Go!

- Hi there, Seyed.

- Hi.

Congratulations!

I hope he comes back safe and sound.

Kazem!

Was Khalil with you at

the operation night?

We're back to square one again.

You've asked me that in 100 different

ways and I've answered you every time.

Thank God he's alive now.

He'll be able to give you your answers.

You weren't there at the operation night.

My son wasn't with you either.

- What are you saying that?

- Enough!

Stop it, Kazem!

You got scared and hid

somewhere in the dark.

It's all right. It was your choice.

Life is too sweet to be

given away that easily.

But why did you lie to me?

I did it for your own sake, I swear.

His name was not on the list and

no one had any news of him.

Whoever I went to would

give me the same answer.

They all said "don't get her hopes up."

"This will ruin her."

I didn't mean to hurt you.

It will be better for your own

future if you become a doctor.

You'll work in a hospital in the morning and

in your own private practice in the afternoon.

If you marry one of your fellow doctors or nurses,

your future will be even more guaranteed.

If you become the only provider like me,

your life will always be full of troubles.

Don't you need berry

leaves anymore?

No, the worm is in its cocoon now.

Here it is.

Thank you.

I'm going to the doctor with Shamsi.

Farrokh is asleep in the room.

Bye.

Say hi to your wife, Mahmood.

Thank you.

Why haven't you distributed these

among the neighbours then?

I kept a few for ourselves.

Farid, take one of these for your dad.

Did you hear me?

Aren't you going to feed the old man?

Yes, I will.

He's hungry. I can feed him if you're busy.

No, I'm done here.

He doesn't let go of the rooftop

even now that he's sold the birds!

Abajan has sent this.

Thank her for me.

The school about to start

Where are you going?

Sir Please, I have

to buy something

Ok come back soon.

The final exams start tomorrow.

The school door will close at 8 A.M and

Abajan
