Everything you have, get them.

Victory! Victory!

We got them.

We fought them off, Amir.

I don't think so.

I think they are on to us.

They are going back to Hobeika.

They will cut our Sultan to pieces on the Northern Road.

You want some water?

Sir! come sir! look over there.

We have your prince.

We want to sell him.

We don't want much.

Some water.

You didn't hurt him, did you?

Hurt! Hurt! your Little Prince.

Why would we do that?

Come closer.

We are close enough.

Get the petrol can. Quick!

Quick, the petrol can!

Quick! Hurry up.

Out of my way, well We truly crossed the Rubicon now.

Here comes the another one!

There's always a little thing.

Give it to me!

They are coming close!

It's coming, coming.

Here we go!

Amir! quickly now.

Amir take cover.

Amir, quick!

Get down. Get down.

No message?

God bless our dead heroes.

I want everybody in the saddle!

Help Us!

Help!

Now! Now! Go!

The sea ..

You have to go to the sea.

Donn't exhaust yourself.

You'll find water...

In the sea! It is in the sea.

Yes, of course it is...

It's alright.

I grew up with him.

I am married to his sister.

I'm sorry, Amir.

It was God's will.

God hates what we do to each other in his name.

He hates that.

We should leave here, Amir.

Nesib will come looking for us in earnest now.

He's right. He will use his planes to track us down.

So this is war?

This is what they write epics about.

Yes.

But you know the really frightning thing is,

how good you are at it.

Send the rest of the army to the Yellow Belt,

Whatever is left of it.

Your Majesty, I am not sure that is wise.

I sent my armored cars,

I sent my best plane with my son in it,

None of them came back from this wretched place,

What other proof do you need?

Or would you like to go into the House Of ALLAH

and look for Amar yourself?

Come On!

How do you know?

Because my spies saw him ride through the gate of Salmaah,

next to his father.Thats how.

He chose sides, he serves under your brothers killer.

But, you killed Saleh.

I didn't kill Saleh.

He just ended up dead!

That scum Auda betrays you, like he betrayed me.

Once an Amar, always an Amar.

Tell her what the Quran says.

The Quran says many things about a large variety of topics.

About divorce, fool! Divorce.

ALLAH is not in favour of it.

Except when the husband behaves appallingly.

If he runs away,

Joins a foreign army, amarches against his family.

Than...

Than... the wife...

Can undo the wedding bonds....

If she repeats three times "I divorce..."

"From Auda, Son Of Amar!"

Come over here.

Now....

Say three times:

"I, Leyla,"

"Daughter Of Nesib,"

"Divorce Auda, Son Of Amar."

Say it.

I,I refuse.

You refuse?

If Auda is marching with his father,

Its because, he had no other choice.

Father, he is the most peace minded man one can dream of.

Peace minded?

Yes.

He is just like his father.

Actually, he is worse.

Because, Amar is just a lunatic.

Fine. Fine

Disobey me.

What is the point in divorcing a corpse?

Hmm, a corpse?

"Hard cases criminals" , my father called you...

He said "you were dangerous men".

And he was right.

You are dangerous men.

But its not your fight.

You are free to go.

What about water?

For water! We will share what is left with you.

And where will you go?

East.

To the sea, nobody will look for us there.

I will follow you.

We will follow you.

If this is the House Of God, I don't think he is home.

I am sure that the camel driver was right.

We will find water at the sea.

From who?

Fishermen.

Traders. There are always people at the sea.

Just a litte drop.

The sea!

The sea! Look! The sea!

Don't drink this water.

Don't drink the water.

Don't drink from the sea.

Don't drink the sea water.

The salt will get into your blood and will kill you.

Don't drink the water.

Don't drink it is salty you will die.

Just Wet your mouth, don't drink.

Al Gloui, Talib!

Go along the coast.

And see what you can find.

Donne. Give, give.

Sea water!

Nothing Amir.

Get up all of you! We are leaving out.

You know, coming to the sea,

It was a choice between certain death and probable death.

Well now the probable death become certain death.

Well, Your Majesty,

very soon, our tongues are going to start swelling,

And you will be acting very oddly for a while...

Before we... before sleep.

Although I do wish you could die without this weird noise.

He said...

The camel driver said:

"The Water will be in the sea...".

He didn't say at the sea said in the sea!

The spring!

Its an underwater spring.

How is it?

Salty. It is not fresh water.

No! No! We have to go to the source.

Yes! it's fresh.

It'ss fresh water!

Are you okay?

Water sacks!

Bring the water sacks.

What?

They found a source.

Underwater! Dive here.

Water! We have water!

Glory be to ALLAH!

Wet your mouth first, slowly slowly.

You know, I knew these camels would get there revenge soon enough.

They are not carrying us anymore,

Are they? We are carrying them.

These are the Beni Sirris,

Famous for their camels.

Looters,

Criminals, famous for trading slaves.

He is wearing the green turban, he is Amar.

It's not Amar.

That's Auda.

Go warn Nesib's men, tell them to be quick. Go!

Welcome!

Thank you, Sheikh.

Welcome, Prince Auda Ibn Amar.

Son of the Bey Al Kursi Of Salmaah.

You are too great for my simple Bedouin tent.

How can I refuse a son of such great fathers?

You can have as many camels as you like.

But, on one condition.

You must drink coffee with us.

Aah there is a God!

You see, Prince Auda when they hear us grind the coffee.

Everybody may come.

Hello.

You presence, if my memory serve me well.

Taste our wedding.

A keep sake from a great day Prince!

Come here.

Come Here.

Stupid Cat!

Stupid Cat! Stupid!

Well! I see that the Beni Sirris dont spare the rott.

She is not of our kind.

She is a Zamiri.

A trophy of a raid.

Yes.

The Zamiris can't keep their women.

They ride like men, with out viels.

I would like to buy her.

She is not for sale.

Of course not.

My father, your king...

Always said that nothing of value is ever bought.

And he's right.

We will trade.

My mothers ring, her name was Zamira.

She was a Princess of the Zamiri.

And she also rode with out a viel.

She is not for sale,

Auda Son Of Zamira, who became the Slave Of Amar.

I think you are making a mistake.

You made the mistake by ever leaving the library in Hobeika.

Auda with the soft hands.

This is a mens game.

Nesib has gone from horizon to horizon.

With a chest of gold to all the tribes.

We are all in fight, with each other,

To be the first to cut off your head,

And bring it to Ibn Idris, Who we hear....

Has been promised to your wife.

Sit next to me. No!

You know, Sheikh,

Everything of value is either won with love or blood.

What are you going to win with love or blood?

Auda with the soft hands?

You are surrounded.

No, I think you are.

Hello there!

Cut my head off!
