God bless you.

You like being stuck here, right?

Of course not.

This can make you a star reporter,

but you might not live to enjoy it.

37 people died in a truck

like this a few days ago.

You don't know me.

Look! There's a truck

over there, Huzaifa.

Guys! Brothers!

- Is my father with you?

- Haj Hamza.

- Huzaifa, are you OK?

- Father!

Yes, what about you?

I'm all right.

It's not the first time.

Is that your brother?

No, I'm Tamer.

Where is your brother, Malek?

- I thought he was with you.

- No.

He'll be fine.

God bless you, brothers.

I hear a truck from

the other side.

Excuse me.

Brothers,

is Malek El Qaffas with you?

- No, he's not.

- Has anyone seen him?

Who's in charge there?

I'm Dr. Suhaib.

Dr. Suhaib.

Is he your Michael Jackson?

How are you, Doc?

Are you all right, sir?

Yes.

Have you organised yourselves?

- Not yet.

- Do it now.

I want the names of

all the detained MBs.

Right away, sir.

OK.

All you MB gather round.

Let's get organised.

- Are you MB?

- Yes.

Are you an MB member?

I've always voted for MB.

Official members are

registered and pay fees.

No, he's a supporter.

I'm an official member.

He's my brother.

Excuse us,

this side is for official members.

Just give us a second.

Any official members left,

raise your hands!

Excuse me,

can you please move?

What difference does it make?

It's OK, Dad.

God be with you.

Thank you.

Name, district, and seniority!

Tamer Noaman, Minya district.

Ahmed Hashem, Matrouh district.

Huzaifa Al Qaffas, Matariya district.

No.

Then you're with them.

So everybody's

either with you or them?

Would you kindly move over?

All right.

Come on, Zein.

Sorry...

you see how it is.

Free me, and I'll go

wherever you want.

Let's move back here.

Let's continue.

Moaz Sabbet,

Chief of the Imbaba district.

Omar Mansour,

Nasr City district.

You could blind someone with that.

How old are you?

Older than you.

We play army and MB at school.

We do, too.

When we play,

we execute the MB.

When we play,

we slaughter the army.

Mr. Moaz has the most seniority.

He'll be our leader.

Of course. Go ahead.

I'll speak on behalf

of MB members here.

MB supporters,

may I speak on your behalf?

Of course, go ahead.

OK, supporters,

flip your armbands over to red

to distinguish you

from official members.

Thank you.

Can we please set some rules?

Screw you and your rules!

Don't be disrespectful.

What rules?

You stick to your side,

we'll stick to ours.

We want nothing to do with you.

That guy needs

to get rid of the razor.

- I dare you to take it.

- Control him.

We don't operate by remote control

like you guys do.

Show some respect.

You show some respect.

- He said remote control.

- Right.

Stop it.

I find this division thing odd.

We agreed

that I'd speak on our behalf.

No, we didn't.

I'm speaking on behalf of our side,

members and supporters.

Are you with us?

Can you please move over there?

- Let's go.

- Sit down.

Hey, soldier!

This guy's trying to pick a fight.

No, I'm not.

We don't want trouble.

Get back.

He's making obscene gestures

in front of the women.

No, I swear, he's a liar.

Back off each other.

Shut up!

What's wrong?

I can't hold it anymore.

Officer, sir?

Go back inside.

Someone needs to pee badly.

He'll die if he doesn't.

He can hold it.

He's diabetic.

Now you're all crippled.

Are these the terrorists you catch,

you criminals?

You're the criminal.

Don't insult my father.

- Screw your dad!

- Enough!

You're impolite.

- Shut up!

- I said enough!

Off you go.

You'll get us in trouble.

Step back.

Please, son.

We're waiting for the officer.

Tell him to use this.

As for your daughter, wait.

You savages.

Shut up.

I'll release her soon.

Only because I have kids.

And my son, sir?

Your son and wife, too.

Use this for now, Radwan.

- It's very dirty.

- Don't be picky, Radwan.

How can I pee in this?

Let me show you how it's done.

Follow me.

You unzip your pants.

Then you aim like this.

There you go.

- May I speak with you?

- Certainly.

What's the matter, Ahmed?

Mr. Omar, can the President

return to power?

- Of course, he will.

- But the odds are against us.

How can we win?

We don't believe in odds,

we believe in God.

That's the devil

messing with your head.

Think positive.

What's that?

Are you filming?

Is that a camera?

It's a watch.

Do you have a camera?

He said it's a watch.

You have a camera?

It's a tiny camera

that I use for work.

- No cameras allowed.

- Get rid of it, or I'll break it.

Break what?

Form a chain.

Officer?

The American has a camera.

What's not on camera never happened.

The camera can help us.

Give it to us. We'll use it.

So you can tamper with the footage?

No way!

The lieutenant got shot.

Ambulance!

Ambulance!

There's the shooter!

Up on the roof.

Where?

There.

Up there on the left.

There he is.

I see him.

Look.

Up there.

There he is.

There!

Look out!

- Watch out!

- Shut up!

Help!

Move the truck.

Help!

Move the truck!

Huzaifa,

are you all right?

I'm fine.

Take care of yourself.

- Are the brothers all right?

- We're OK.

That shooter's not MB.

They want to frame us.

We know.

He must be with the police.

Is he also with the police?

Not everyone with a beard is MB.

Pass the camera!

- Hand me the camera.

- No.

Stop the truck.

Stop it.

Farghali.

Get up.

Is it my mum?

No.

- Your father?

- No, Fisho.

Uncuff me!

Where's the officer who was here?

He promised to release us.

Help him!

His head is bleeding.

He'll die.

We have a nurse here.

No, we don't.

Tamer, get down.

- Why?

- I'm in charge and I said so.

So they kill us,

but we can't defend ourselves?

Stop acting.

You're all the same: killers.

You worried they'd call you terrorists?

You don't deserve the honour.

Tamer.

Get off the window.

Is this the wife of the lieutenant?

Ma'am, I'm sorry.

We lost him.

Ambulance!

He's bleeding to death.

Shut the hell up.

Or I'll fire tear gas in there

and close the door.

Move that truck.

- It won't start, sir.

- Move all the trucks!

Push it.

Move!

Take turns by the windows.

We all need to breathe.

Soldier,

please get us water.

For us too!

Here's a 100.

Even if it's just one bottle.

Get some for yourselves, too.

Take your money.

We're not your servants.

Don't take anything from anyone.

Dude, where are you from?

A gated community.

If you have a wedding or party,

I'm DJ Mans.

DJ Mans in the house, everyone!

- Are you famous?

- Sort of.

DJ?

You have no equipment.

Cards and a LED belt don't make

you a DJ.

It's better than watching

football all day.

Team Ahly forever!

Team Ahly is the best.

It was.

- Team Zamalek is better.

- Better at losing.

Football means Team Zamalek!

My dad used to say

football means Ahly.

Your dad's a wise man.

It smells awful.

What smell?

You call that smell

peaceful protesting?

It's from your side.

This is inappropriate.

There are women here.
