Didn't I tell you?

What? You're crazy!

Why not?

He has a right

to be buried like anyone.

You're burying him?

Like a prince!

You said

we were going to get nails!

Dib's got lots!

You'll see...

Liar!

I don't want to go back to Dib's!

Don't be afraid. If anyone

touches you, I'll kill him.

You'll remain beside me.

Look! It's Omar!

He's waiting for us.

You coming?

Look who's here!

My friend Boubker!

Our friend!

Welcome among the great!

You, you're a bum!

You stink!

Sit down.

Know who I am?

A prince, like Ali.

My friend Ali

tells me secrets!

And gives me gifts

like a chick.

You bum!

Don't touch my watch!

Leave him alone!

Omar, you know how it works?

You never know nothing, you bum!

Look.

You take it

and stick it way up your ass,

and when you walk,

it goes tick-tock!

Good, you learn fast.

You know his mother?

No. Do you?

Yes, she's a whore.

Why didn't you tell anyone?

I'll go get those nails.

- Remember me?

- You came yesterday.

You got the uniform?

Impossible! There are rules.

You promised!

I didn't promise.

I said I'd see!

I've got the money.

You said to come back.

I tried to find your uniform,

but couldn't.

You want me to go to jail?

You gave your word!

I didn't give you a thing.

Yes, you promised!

You really did!

Liar!

You son of a b*tch! You f***er!

You know him?

He's a pal.

Your pal's a f***er?

You still here?

Not going to run away

like last time?

Let go of me!

Boubker and Omar

say you want to bury Ali.

Didn't you know?

They're back with us.

It's not true!

Hey, Kwita!

We saw Ali's watch!

It's fabulous!

Dib can't read the time.

He said

"Go get Kwita.

"He'll know how."

Stop being an idiot, come back!

Dib's waiting for you.

I've got things to do.

"I've got things to do!"

You like them?

"A lot."

- Where will you put them?

- "In a vase."

OK, but where?

"In my bedroom, to perfume it."

"Where do you live?"

And you?

A long way, that way.

"And you?"

A long way, too.

The other way.

"You have a house?"

Of course.

I don't live off anyone's back!

And I'll have an occupation,

like Ali.

He wanted to be a sailor.

I need to find my calling.

Wait!

You still have my necklace?

"Yes, I wear it at night,

when I go out with my girlfriends."

Wait!

I'm no coward, huh?

I'll bury him.

Then I'll come back!

Eat, so you grow big and strong.

Like Dib.

You see, Boubker...

Dib said:

"No one wanted to kill Ali."

We liked him a lot,

even if he was bossy.

Why did you leave?

You should've stayed in the gang.

Look!

He threw the stone!

You saw how Dib dealt with him?

Coming back into the fold?

Careful, the man's coming back!

Through with your belly dance?

Hi, sweetheart!

We're not coming back!

We're not, Dib!

We're going to bury him.

Tell him, we're going to bury him!

Don't play cute!

That's where we'll bury him!

The body, tomorrow!

Life...

Is a pile of sh*t!

They're there!

They're there!

The cellar!

Where are they?

They bother me day and night!

Get rid of that vermin!

Sh*t! Ali!

Hamid!

Did you hide him?

I thought I could count on you.

I'm crazy to listen to kids.

It's not our fault.

It's because of Dib's gang.

You put him on your ice?

Hamid...

We want to bury him.

We really want to!

Look.

We've got the shroud.

We've even found the hole.

The hole?

To dump the cabin-boy in?

You have the compass?

Put it down.

The stars...

are in the sea.

It's his boat!

Do the two suns

set at the same time?

You can sleep in the cabin.

All three of you.

Boubker, come up!

There's no more Boubker!

Go away!

What are you doing?

I'm going to drown myself.

Here I go!

Don't be an idiot!

I want to die!

What for?

So you won't forget me.

Like in the bus, with Dib.

You didn't even ask

what he did to me.

Today, I didn't forget you.

I went to Dib's.

You went for Ali.

Ali is all that matters.

I'm going to die too!

So people care about me.

Stop dreaming.

Why can't I be a prince,

like Ali?

You're too little.

You have lots of time

to become a prince.

Come up, now.

Why should I?

I have no family, nobody.

And your uncle?

Aicha, the witch!

She's squatting there!

She wants to strangle me.

My uncle,

wouldn't have left me there!

Your uncle would have beaten you!

See, you make fun of me!

You don't even

want us to sleep together!

You always say:

"We're not faggots!"

I was just kidding!

I'm not kidding!

Enough of your bullshit.

It's freezing, here.

Can I sleep with you?

Yeah...

Gently...

Watch out,

he'll f*** you in the ass!

I'm sure he can see us...

He's proud of us.

Maybe he had a shitty life...

But he won't be buried

like a piece of sh*t!

Yeah!

Maybe he's suffering, screaming,

and we can't hear him.

You stupid?

Why would he scream?

Dunno...

With all the dumb things he did.

You've done even more...

I didn't eat during Ramadan.

You used to f*** cats.

One day I'll make up for it...

Maybe he has a wife.

Sure! In heaven,

you get anything you want!

When I'm dead,

I'll have lots of money!

At least three cars!

I bet he's on a yacht,

sailing the ocean.

He's caught in a storm

and can't sail on!

The waves are as high as walls!

Know what Ali Zaoua does?

Tell me...

He dives...

He takes the rope between his teeth

and swims like crazy.

And Aicha the witch

comes out of the water,

she wants to strangle him!

Yes.

Know what Ali Zaoua does?

What?

He opens his jaws

and fights her.

Ali Zaoua...

"steel jaws!"

He's hurt,

but he still wipes her out!

In the morning,

he takes his boat

back to the island.

It's hot, on the island.

Sure, there's two suns!

A pretty woman is waiting for him

and they have a great marriage.

They eat a ton of candies!

Then he puts into her stomach

a little Ali!

Her hair's in pigtails

and she's sweet.

Ali Zaoua...

The prince of the island.

The rain will wash away our kitchen.

Don't worry.

An angel

can't really die.

Hamid!

The wind started to blow.

The boat was carried off

by the waves.

The child looked up.

Facing him,

the sun lit a piece of the earth.

From behind a cloud

another sun came out

that lit up the whole island.

He would finally know

if the two suns

set at the same time.

Nuredin, you OK?

Don't worry,

we won't trash your junk.

Where's the woman who...

Who made you cry?

Tell us, "Winston"?

Then you'll beat it?

Swear!

I swear.

She has gone to the fair.

She's nuts!

You f***ers!

Stop!

I've got it, Omar!

Who's she?

Here!

Give me a coin!

Life...

Is a pile of sh*t...

He wanted to know...

if the two suns...

set at the same time.

Tell me, Ali,

what do you want to be later?

A sailor.

Really? Why a sailor?

Because I love the sea.

Why else?

That's what I want to do.
