Essaouira, twenty-two.

Safi, twenty-three.

Al Jadida, twenty-two...

Three hundred kilometers

of open ocean.

To Europe.

Hezz...

- Guzma-han.

- What are you doing?

- Just cooking.

- Just cooking?

- Sufyan's not here yet?

- I haven't seen him.

- Stop it. Let me cook.

- Smells good.

You think so?

Go clean the vegetables.

That's Sufyan's job, not mine.

You never help me...

There you are.

- Look at you.

- Stop it.

How elegant.

- He's trying to impress Alexandra.

- Ah, that's why.

Are you jealous?

Why would I be jealous

of someone who's leaving tomorrow?

Salaam aleikum.

Welcome, guys.

Fettah...

- Can I have some tea?

- Of course.

- Welcome, guys.

- Thanks, brother.

Fettah.

- You look gorgeous.

- Thank you.

Did you smoke a little too much?

Thank you.

They shot some crazy videos of you.

Check out this bottom turn.

Fettah, look.

Where's Alexandra?

She's not coming?

I don't know.

I think she went for a walk.

- Are you OK?

- I'm OK.

- Everything OK?

- Yes.

No problem.

Where were you?

You look "belle".

"Beau"

- "Beau"...sorry.

What's going on?

Fettah...

I'm going.

- What?

- I'm going.

Excuse me.

- That's too much...

- It's OK.

- But it's too much.

- It's OK.

Good night. And thank you.

Maestro...

- Thank you very much.

- You're welcome...

Here...

This is the two thousand...

Give it to Fettah.

Thank you.

Say goodbye to your dad...

...maybe see you in 6 months.

That's cool.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

Fettah, I'll leave you the five-three.

- I don't need it.

- No, but it's...

You can fix it,

you'll have a new sail.

- That's cool.

- OK?

- Bye, my friend. See you next year.

- Alright. Thanks.

- Did they pay you?

- Let go.

Here. That OK?

- And me?

- Let go.

We went for long walks...

She would take off her headscarf.

I remember

her long black hair...

...floating in the wind.

Southwest is that way...

The Southern storms are coming.

Are we out of fuel, Dad?

There's still plenty.

Leave it.

Let it cool down a bit.

Tell me, Fettah...

...how old are you now? Thirty?

- Thirty-two.

- Thirty-two?

I have an idea.

Let's set a date...

...and invite everyone over.

We'll have a barbecue.

We could invite Mourad.

OK. Stop it. Wait.

He became angry...

He hit her.

- Look who's here.

- How are you, Auntie?

- Fine. How are you?

- Fine.

- And your health?

- Fine, thank God.

- Everything OK?

- How are you?

We're OK.

And you?

- We're OK.

- And your father?

- You painted the yard again?

- Yes, for the holiday.

- Here's fish for you.

- Thank you.

- That's all we got today.

- It's plenty.

May God give you even more.

- Shall I make some tea?

- I'd love some.

Welcome...

- How are you?

- Fine, you?

- It's been a while.

- I've been working a lot.

I missed you.

Did you paint the walls again?

- You're always painting.

- The holidays are coming.

- It's been a long time...

- What can I say?

- Have a seat.

- She's painting too?

She's covered in paint.

How is your father?

Is he well?

He's tired, gets up early.

He takes his boat

out to Essaouira...

He's very tired.

There are no more fish.

You know your father.

He can't stop working.

- Can I ask you something?

- Of course.

It's about my backpack.

I'd like to make...

...three holes in the bottom.

Here...

...here... and there.

Three holes?

If it's possible.

If you have time.

I'll pay you.

Fettah, stop it.

When do you need it?

In two days.

OK.

Salaam aleikum.

Dear Auntie...

How are you... oops...

- How are you?

- Still alive.

Will she forgive me?

Salaam aleikum.

Mourad.

Welcome.

Such a great day.

You came, as promised.

- How are you?

- Good.

- Welcome.

- Thank you.

Go get your jembe.

- Come on.

- Thanks.

Thanks for inviting me.

Let's play.

Let's go.

Good wind, huh?

It's great.

Are you coming?

Come on, let's go.

I saw her change...

...slowly.

She became quiet.

Why?

Why did she do it?

Wisal.

- How did you get in?

- Through the door.

Through the door.

What are you doing here?

What's wrong?

- Are you angry with me?

- Are you leaving?

I want to go with you.

- I want to go with you.

- Stop it.

I want to go with you.

Stop it.

I want to go with you.

You know what we'll do?

- We'll go to the beach, OK?

- No.

We'll go to the beach.

I'll make the biggest drawing

I ever made for you.

We'll do it together, OK?

This way.

I am going to do the eye.

- What are you drawing?

- The eye.

It's going to be huge.

- I'm going to change the tail.

- No. No.

Come sit with me.

- Leave me alone.

- Come.

OK...

I'm tired. Stop.

Do you want

to look at the stars?

Look, I closed my eyes.

Wisal...

Wisal.

Can you see

how beautiful she is?

Shiny, like a mirror.

Can you see yourself?

Can you see me?

I am here.
