Circumstance Page #2

---

Sir, please stop the car.

Don't think the clothes fool me.

Stop. I want to get out.

No matter how you dress

yourself, trash is trash.

How about we go

to the police station?

I have some friends there.

Give me your foot.

Excuse me?

I just want your foot.

You think I'm hot?

Like it?

Feels good?

Go to hell.

Mehran!

We've missed you, man.

There is a killer afterparty.

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Shireen! Get down!

Oh, my God, are you okay?

Hossein, let's dub those scenes.

That was awesome.

F*** the mothers of all the mullahs

who sh*t all over this country.

To Hollywood!

Where's your energy? Dance.

Are you OK?

Don't tell me what to do.

Morality Police!

Morality Police!

Morality Police.

- Hurry!

- Shireen!

Go! Go!

Thank God you got away too.

I haven't done anything.

Mehran.

Please, tell him.

Don't be afraid.

We have nothing against you.

Ali, my dear.

You piece of sh*t.

You worthless trash.

Always the same mistakes.

I have homework to do.

Let's eat.

Let's wait for your big brother.

Thank you for the feast, Mom.

Is there any more breast?

Wait.

Here you go.

Azar,

don't you think the boy

has become strange?

No,

not at all.

Didn't you want breast?

Is it because I used my hands?

What? You think I'm dirty?

I pray, so I know I'm clean.

You, I'm not so sure of.

Oh, you found some.

Thank you, Mommy.

Pig.

I know you're angry.

I'm angry too.

Cut. Joey...

That was good but...

make his voice more gay.

More gay. Could you do that?

More gay?

Yes, please. More gay.

OK.

Action!

I know you're angry.

I'm angry too.

OK, cut.

Joey, he's gay.

But not that gay.

Get lost.

OK, OK. Let's do it again.

Action.

I know you're angry.

I'm angry too.

Let's march the streets

of San Francisco

and share our anger.

Yes. Who's your Daddy?

Yeah.

Oh! Say my name.

OK, kids, cut. Cut.

Cut. Cut! Cut!

Cut.

Joey, less.

Guys aren't that loud.

Shireen, breathe more.

Exhale.

It's not a Lamaze class.

You're not giving birth.

Yeah. OK. Action!

I love your body.

Yeah, again.

Your left hand.

Cut. Cut.

F*** me.

Will you f*** me?

F*** me.

- Yeah.

- F*** me.

Yeah.

Cut! Cut!

Cut, cut, cut!

OK, Joey, please,

let me direct.

There's one director now.

Why are you making donkey sounds?

Ladies here don't make those sounds.

Maybe you just don't know

how to produce them.

From now on,

my name is Samantha.

Tonight, you're going to f*** me.

- F*** me.

- F*** me.

F*** me.

Why won't you f*** me?

Yeah, baby.

Yeah, baby.

Get her.

Pull over.

Don't be afraid, my child.

You're not responsible

for your parents' mistakes.

Is it true your parents were writers?

Anti-revolutionary writers?

Face the wall, you whore.

You have no right to look at us.

Understand?

Answer his question.

These tactics might work

with your clients,

but they don't work here.

Answer his question.

My parents were professors.

Do you think you can avenge

their deaths by doing this?

Is my brother telling a joke?

Hung from a rope,

you won't be laughing.

You know in these cases

of anti-government activity,

we're forced to do

a complete physical examination.

With what right?

You had no such permission.

We don't need your permission.

Especially you,

who can't control his daughter.

Do you know who you're talking to?

You're not in a position

to play that card.

Please, take a seat.

Why is it

your 16-year-old daughter

is not a virgin, but...

Know your place.

Money brings power, I know.

But you're not responsible enough

to control your own daughter.

I once had a daughter too.

God rest her soul.

She's not dead.

She's alive.

She lives on the other side

of the ocean.

But for me, she is dead.

Raising a daughter

is difficult, I know.

It costs so much.

Yes, a lot.

So we understand each other.

Completely.

How much to forget this?

We're all forced to play this game.

You should be ashamed.

You're all garbage, filthy whores.

Answer me.

Answer me.

Are you deaf or dumb?

And you call yourself an actress?

You think, because of

who your father is,

you can do whatever you want?

Where is Shireen?

Shireen, do you need a ride home?

My uncle is coming

with the deed to his house.

A generous uncle.

Sister, your parents are here.

Fix your headscarf.

Good girl.

I'll stay with you,

until your uncle comes.

He is going to kill me.

What's so funny?

You can go.

I took care of everything.

How?

I could do something,

so it all disappears

from your record.

And you won't even

have to go to court.

My face is burning.

So damn hot in here.

Not as hot as hell.

Atafeh, this time,

I'll forgive you.

We're all human.

We make mistakes.

But if we repeat the same mistakes,

then we're no different than animals.

After months of investigation,

the Revolutionary Guards

were able to infiltrate

a secret anti-government

political cell...

Shireen.

Now you must get married.

No more discussion.

That's that.

The leader of the spies

is Hossein Shekarkhar,

born in Ohio

and a Harvard University student.

Using his dual citizenship

as a guise,

he was able to conduct

his covert spying operation

sponsored by the American

and Israeli governments.

This dangerous American spy

is set to stand trial

at the Freedom Courts.

Hurry. A five-hour hike

is no joke.

Yes, Doctor.

I have guests today,

I need your help.

Look at the beautiful blossoms.

You never used to be this slow!

Respect your elders!

I'll show you.

You think you can beat me?

Let's take a tiny break here.

Like it?

Have some water.

Save it for yourself.

I have plenty.

Don't squander it

on an old man.

Just have some, Daddy.

I used to come here during college.

When we weren't protesting

in the streets,

we would rip off our clothes

and jump in the water.

We'd create such a ruckus.

The park ranger

would chase us with his baton.

"You bastards!"

We would grab our stuff

and run buck naked to our car.

I was once rebellious.

I know what it means to be young.

Are you done?

God, see how she

treats her father?

What's God got to do with it?

Don't be disrespectful.

You all created this world for us

with that revolution of yours.

Now we're forced to live

under these circumstances.

Have I done so wrong?

I've done all this because of you.

What's gotten into you?

You have everything at your disposal.

If you think somewhere else

is better, go!

If you're tired, go back.

I'll continue alone.

Rush up, rush down.

Rush up, rush down.

What's the point?

It's exercise,

it's good for your heart.

You know what's good

for my heart?

Being with my daughter.

You're getting sentimental

in your old age.

Ready?

Why don't you go on ahead?

Like you suggested,

I'll go home.

Are you sure, Dad?

Are you sure?

Yes, I am sure.

At least, take the water.

No need.

- Daddy.

- Go, Atie.

Why didn't you tell me?

Nothing has happened.

They're here to talk.
