Here is as sunny as ever.

All want to know how the morning went.

The morning was all in all a

disappointment.

The judge has referred a case to 24.6.

Until now.

What!

- As he has done.

In the background is I guess the idea

-.

When the application has been

withdrawn, so what's errand no longer

is.

I told that to us it makes a lot of

matter,.

As the situation to prevent the

dissemination of the film.

For us it is important that the matter

can no longer bring a new action.

Judge Dow replied only,.

Perhaps, that the parties should talk

about reconciliation.

The fact is that the story is no

longer in your power.

We do not have a choice.

Dole has reached its destination, and

shut your mouth.

God, this will never end.

I imagined this to be over.

Even if you win the case,.

Dole appeal to a higher court.

That would mean at least a year of

additional delay.

Dole could also pay for warranties,.

In which case it does not have to pay

court costs immediately.

Although we would win in June,.

This thing is not over yet for a long

time.

All right.

In general, I admire very much the

legal system,.

But today does not seem to like it.

Also in June the hearing was canceled.

Plagued has been going on for over a

year.

In late August, michael carter asked

us to abandon the action.

He is ready to come to Sweden to

negotiate an agreement,.

If you just cut a movie a few points.

These guys do not ever give up.

They do not give up, even know that

they are wrong.

This thing is not over yet for a long

time.

In two recent reading dole made ??it

clear.

It does not agree to compensation.

No one knows when this will end the

litigation.

Half years, Lincoln has become like a

brother to me.

Here is your thing.

So all of this, so that I could make

movies.

Here are the juttuusi Statements.

Self- defense of the law is not a

cheap thing.

Two months later, on my way to the

film festival.

On the same day lincoln face Dole in

court in Los Angeles.

This is the moment we've been waiting

for.

I was really excited.

Initial Decision is exactly the way I

wanted.

It is a point that sums up everything

perfectly.

Watching a movie is not supported by

Dole 's arguments about it.

That's what we have experienced.

The judge ruled Edelman couple of

times to the sidelines,.

Thats what movie are you talking

about.

Edelmann just went on and on,.

Until the judge said that, now, this

should suffice.

The filmmakers won a libel case

brought by Dole.

Dole was ordered to pay for freedom of

speech 200 story $ 000.

Dole 200 $ 000 contribution to the

film story.

I did not think I could read the legal

text with a smile,.

But this is a complete victory for us.

The big boys are gone.

Now we can present the film in the

United States.

At least I hope, because those guys

can not ever be sure.

Lincoln wrote a few days later :

Fredrik and Margarita, sit firmly for

sure?

Dole gave me a call today.

The caller was not a lawyer, but the

financial department.

He made only one question: where the

money is sent.

It's over.

Dole did not choose the verdict.

We won.

Dole's action is based on allegations

that the juan dominguez was a fraud

and a traitor.

In March 2011, California Bar

Association set aside the doubts

connected to Dominguez.

I returned to Nicaragua to show the

film for the workers.

Dole had spent millions to silence

this story.

These stories of poverty and injustice

-.

I have to tell you again and again.

It was very good to me, and can you

guess why?

Because it told the truth, and the

truth can never be silenced.

Gibraltar associates.

- Can I get John Proctor.

Just a second, I connect.

This guy took us to every Swedish

supplier,.

Who interviewed me, I'm under attack.

Hey, John!

Here, frederick Gertten, bananas! -

Filmmaker.

Good morning.

How are you?

- Very good.

I would like to film this evening here

in Washington.

I read it in the Washington Post.

You are welcome to take a look at it

if you can.

Thank you for the invitation, but I

have agreed to relocate.

I read all of the articles of course,

if it is written in the press.

Tell me you'll meet me now that I'm

here?

I beg your pardon?

Tell me you'll meet me now that I'm

here?

That's a big deal.

Here, the distances are so short.

- True.

Produce.

I do not know.

I do not know what we were talking

about really.

I appreciate very much indeed for this

call and the offer.

I will get back to you.

- Done so.

And good luck tonight.

- Thank you.
