But they're going to the

streets to take him down.

They can go to hell.

Why? It's their right.

- No, It's not their right.

Freedom!

Freedom!

What is revolution?

Revolution is not simply

replacing a regime.

Revolution is a

culture of a people.

You give them

ownership of their freedom.

That's what we gained.

You don't want to see

your friends, Khalid and Ahmed?

I want to see them,

but I'm assigned here now.

They told me I need to stay.

I don't want to stand with

one side against the other,

and it could result in death.

Understand?

Aren't you sad?

- Of course.

That your friends

are on the opposite side?

Who am I attacking? Am I going

to attack Khalid Abdalla?

Or Pierre who used

to host me in his apartment?

The President's speech

was not satisfactory

to the people's demands.

Early presidential elections

will be held.

The head of the constitutional

court will be the

interim President

until a new President

is elected.

Long live Egypt!

Long live Egypt!

Long live Egypt!

Morsi has fallen.

So did the Army and Mubarak.

We're waiting

for the next one.

This is our life now,

we'll stay in the street.

I want to go home

and sleep.

So tell me, Magdy,

what are we going to do now?

Listen, Ahmed, I swear

to God, I'm at the Brotherhood

sit-in.

We may or may not be massacred.

It doesn't matter.

If you're meant to die,

it's going to happen

wherever you are.

The more they kill, the

more we believe in our cause.

The pro-Morsi sit-in

declared that there have been

deaths

after they were shot at

with live bullets.

A massacre by all means.

Magdy, as much as I've

been violent in words,

that was just

anger speaking.

Well, you're putting

our religion on the line.

You're challenging our belief

of an Islamic country.

Honestly, I want

to come be with you.

After all, this revolution was

for a principle, not for blood.

What I feared has

started happening.

That we're going

to fight each other.

- - We're all your

soldiers. Morsi! -

We'll rally beside you.

Morsi!

We'll rally beside you. Morsi!

I don't want you

to get hurt or killed.

Magdy, when I gave you a hard

time, it was because I was mad.

But we still respect

each other's opinions.

And you and I agree.

We want the best

for our country.

You shouldn't come here.

You shouldn't come here.

No, forget it, I'm coming.

What will they do? Kill me?

That's up to God's will.

And if I die I'll just

blame it on you, Magdy.

You know me.

I'm not here to die or to kill.

You know my intentions.

? Freedom is coming,

that's for sure?

? "Liberty" was written

in our destiny?

? They said, riots are

in our blood?

? And how dare we claim

our rights??

? Freedom?

? Revolution!?

? Oh, the Square?

? Where were you long ago??

? With you we sung

and with you we suffered?

? We've prayed and

we've been scared?

? United day and night?

? Nothing is

impossible with you?

? The sound of freedom

is gathering us?

? And our lives

finally have meaning?

? No turning back?

? Our voices are

finally heard?

? And the dream

is no longer forbidden?

? Oh, the Square?

? Where were you long ago??

? You've destroyed the walls

and let in the light?

? You gathered the

broken people around you?

? We've been reborn?

? And our determined

dream was born?

? We have our differences

but our intentions are pure?

? Even when the picture

wasn't clear?

? Honouring our country

and our grandchildren?

? And the rights that have

been stolen from our youth?

? Oh, the Square?

? Where were you long ago??

? With you we felt

something for the first time?

? But since then

we grew apart?

? We have to change ourselves

with our own hands?

? You gave us so much

and now it's our turn?

? Sometimes I fear

that you become a memory?
