and I hope you find joy

and happiness.

God willing.

Be strong,

and you'll get out of here.

Hi, Malek.

Hello.

How are you, Abu Muhammad?

-How are you?

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

I went to work today,

and that "Master" ("Jew") scumbag

hired someone else.

because I went home last week.

I have nowhere to go.

I thought...

I'd come see you here.

You sleep here in the resturant?

I sleep here. Yes.

I'll be fine...

God willing...

I just wanted to see if...

I understand...

-If you could help me out.

You know,

Jaffa is full of criminals.

and police. I don't want trouble.

Don't worry.

Hello. Good evening.

-Hello.

Anan.

-Go ahead.

Someone from my village is here...

he's a stranger in Jaffa.

He doesn't know what to do.

What do you want from me?

He asked...if he could...

You want to ruin me

with another illegal worker?!

Do me a favor.

Get rid of him!

Get rid of him!

I can't help him.

So, Malek?

What can I say?...

Those Arabs of Israel...

We talk about collaborators,

they're much worse.

What can I do?

-I'll manage. Thanks. Malek.

You did what you could.

God bless you, Malek.

-You too.

How are you, Malek?

How are you?

-Fine, thanks...

I got you dirty.

-No, it's okay. How's work?

Good.

-Good?

They sent your mother home today.

She went home?

-Yes.

They released her

because there's no money.

The hospitalization is very expensive.

Will she have the surgery?

-It costs a lot, Malek.

I checked

and it's about 75,000$.

Understand?

But don't worry... We...

We'll stand by her.

And the Palestinian Authority

will help with 25,000$.

The rest...

I'll help a little,

Anan will help a little... and...

We'll collect donations,

and see what we can do.

I'll work for you all my life.

Don't worry.

I'll take care of everything.

Okay?

-God willing.

Take care. All right?

Bye.

Bye.

What are you doing here?!

What are you doing here, jerk?!

What?!

Sh*t your pants, sweetheart?

You scared me to death.

-What are you doing here?

What's going on?

Hi, Shata.

-What's up? -What's up, bro?

Hi, Malek.

What did they do to you?

We scared him to death.

Enought, Binj.

There's no way back from it.

-No?

"Once you pop, you can't stop".

No, no.

Give it to Omar.

-No, I don't smoke.

He doesn't.

-It's shameful.

Binj, I came to see you

because you didn't come to work.

Why?

I took a break.

No opener.

-I'll open it.

I took a break

because of the trouble.

Here.

What trouble?

-With my brother.

We need a chick here.

We'll get some.

All Shata thinks about is p*ssy.

-P*ssy?

He's just a kid...

Ah! You had a birthday.

Happy Birthday!

-Abu Ellias suprised me...

with Anan and Hadir...

-Nice

I have a surprise for you.

You see that in the wall?

Bring it here. -Bring it.

Unplug it.

Why is a tennis racket plugged in?

It's your birthday present.

My Girlfriend brought it

from Thailand.

You're giving him her gift?

Ah, Binj?

Ever played tennis?

This is for you.

What is it?

-Look, it has...

Electricity...

Watch it...

It doesn't...

-It's electrice.

Watch his balls.

He'll have to marry some day.

It doesn't really electrocute.

-It's for flies.

For flies...-Yes.

-Mosquitoes...

It has a flashlight to light your bed

in the container.

And jerk off...

You pervert!

Thanks, Binj.

Happy Birthday.

But when are you coming back to work?

[Hebrew] Mister!

He doesn't want to work.

He wants to screw around

at home.

Keep your pants!

Pants! Short Pants! Long Pants!

What do you were?!

[Arabic]

He can't understand.

He doesn't understand Hebrew.

-Ah! No Hebrew.

Tell him in Arabic.

[Hebrew]

You're the best! Really!

[Arabic]

No, thanks. -Come on, eat.

Take it.

-I'm not... -Why?

What's up, Malek?

My mother's situation is...

not good.

How is she?

They took her to the hospital,

and...

She needs

a bone marrow transplant.

May she be well.

-May she be well.

She can't do it back home.

No, here is Israel.

-Ah, "inside"?

May she be well.

May you live to be 120.

May you know only happiness.

God willing.

-God willing.

May your mother be well.

God bless you.

Malek.

Malek.

Malek.

Get up! they're here.

Malek...

The Jews are here.

Get up!

Get up!

The war started.

Get up! It's 5:
00 a.m, already.

It's 5:
00. If Anan catches you,

he'll kill you.

Run before he gets up.

What's this?

Crystal.

The cause of all teh troubles.

Get going before Anan gets up.

Don't mess with this stuff.

Don't tell anyone. Okay, Malek?

I'll come see you at the resturant.

Take care.

[Hebrew]

Go easy!

Malek.

Malek.

Malek.

Good morning.

-Great morning. Get up!

What's wrong? -I'm late?

-You slept with socks on?!

The smell is lethal!

I got tired yesterday.

-It shows...

You have hard on.

Listen,

I want to show you something.

Abu Ellias has a birthday...

-Yes.

And I got him...

I got him a small gift.

What? A rubber dick?

What's this?

My grandma had this sh*t.

Add one more shekel

and get him something else.

I have shivers in my balls.

Take it.

Get up!

Get me some nice paper

to wrap it.

No problem.

Come on.

Come on, sis!

Malek!

Malek!

What are you doing outside?

The "government" (police)

is all around.

Get inside!

The gate is open

and you're here?!

Anan!

They murdered Benj. -Who?

Binj.

They murdered Binj.

-Where?

There are lots of police

at his house.

At his house?

-Yes.

Get inside, Malek!

Go!

Go inside!

Run!

Omar.

Sit down.

Binj is dead, Malek.

I know.

I know why.

What do you know?

Malek.

When I left Binj this morning

he had a package...

with "White".

When I went out,

I heard people speaking Hebrew.

I waited to see who they were.

I saw 3 men.

One looked in the window,

One knocked,

and they went in.

I went back to the resturant.

I was late.

I'm afraid he took it from them,

and couldn't pay.

Don't touch anything.

God,

What have they done here?!

Blood?

Hold this.

Light it.

We're taking it.

Where to?

Out of here.

We can't leave it here.

But it will get us into trouble.

Take it where?

What will you do with it?

Sell it.

What do you mean sell it?

We'll see,

both of us need the money.

No...

-It belongs to no one now.

Fifty fifty, Malek.

Wait.

Are they here?

I hope so.

Where are they?

I don't know.

He said "a jeep".

[Hebrew]

Good morning.

Who talked to me on the phone?

I did.

I'm Momi.

Who's this?

Malek. He's my partner.

Yeah?

What heppened?

You kept me waiting...

Why? what time is it, Malek?

-Nobody keeps me waiting.

Sorry...

I've got things to do.

You brought it?

Let me see.

What is this?!

-Can I see the money?

Let me have a look!

-Okay, take your time.

What's this?!

It's not crystal.

What do you mean?

Are you kidding me?

Are you kidding me?

What is it?

-Are you joking? -No.

A joke?

-No.

[Arabic] What's happening?

-He says it's not drugs.

Are you kidding me?!

-What now?

Yossi!

[Hebrew] Grab him!

[Arabic] Run Omar!

It's Binji's murder!

[Hebrew] What's wrong, Dando?
