It sat cross-legged and stood up running,

had a cowlick in its hair..."

At the interview,

they asked me if I knew anyone from a minority

and if I had any relationships with Arabs-.

So what did you tell them?

If you want to be in the Intelligence Corps,

you need a very high security clearance.

Hi, Edna.

Is everything OK? Is Yonatan still awake?

I believe this is yours.

I'm so sorry.

I just wanted to be a waiter. That's all.

I won't do it anymore.

I promise.

It's alright.

No one needs to know.

No one.

Don't turn over your papers until I tell you to.

Is that clear?

Shlomo Avihai?

I did the best I could.

You did a lot.

Remember the first time you came to our house?

Of course.

Do you realize how much you've changed?

Sometimes I don't understand anything.

I never saw Yonatan as happy

as when he was with you.

I miss him so much.

So do I.

Do you know what hurts most?

That sometimes I pray for it to end.

So he'll stop suffering.

Yonatan...

Good evening. Your ID, please.

Yonatan Avrahami?

Edna? You're his mother?

Have a good night.

Go.

You think it's easy for me?

Well, it isn't.

I really love you,

but I can't go on anymore.

I can't lie and I don't want to.

I feel suffocated

and I really can't go on anymore.

Really.

You have to help me,

help me go.

How are you, my friend?

I've missed you.

What do you feel like listening to?

I brought you lots of new CD's from Berlin.

I already finished my first year there.

Third floor, room 314.

- Thank you.

- No problem.

ISLAMIC RELIGIOUS COUNCIL

May God have mercy on him.

Can I have the deceased's ID card?

EYAD BARHUM:

Praise God. He looks a lot like you.

Was he your brother?

May Allah have mercy on him

and give him a place in heaven.

Can you please wrap him in these shrouds

from Mecca?

Of course.

Don't forget to return the ID

to the Ministry of the Interior.

Goodbye.

"There is no God but Allah."

Eyad son of Fahima.

When the angels of death ask:

"What is your religion and who is your God?"

Say:

Allah is my God,

Islam is my religion and Muhammad is my prophet,

and I know that there is no God but Allah

and Muhammad is his messenger."

The Opening, friends:

"In the name of Allah, the Beneficent,

the Merciful. Praise be to Allah.

Lord of the Worlds,

guide us on the path of those Thou hast favored.

"Not of those who earn Thine anger

nor of those who go astray, Amen."
