Thank you.

- Hello.

- Hello.

- Who do you want to talk to?

- I am looking for Goudarz.

Yes?

I am looking for Goudarz.

He's not here, he has gone

for a trip as a mission.

When will he come back?

It takes several days.

Several days!

Where has he gone?

He goes to villages

to display movies.

You're not from around here?

I came from Kabul.

Kabul? It's interesting!

Can you find him

if I write you the address?

Yes, thank you.

You're welcome.

A moment please!

Where is Goudarz?

The one who displays movies!

There he is.

- There?

- Yes.

May I help you?

- Hello.

- Hello.

- I am looking for Goudarz.

- Why do you want to talk to him?

I am coming from Kabul.

I have brought a letter

from Salar Qaznavi.

- Salar?

- Yes.

Is he still alive?

Are you his friend? Wait!

Welcome! How is my friend?

- He's OK, he sent his regards.

- Thank you.

I went to your office,

they said you went for a trip.

Yes, I come to beautiful places

for my missions.

Look! Look at this view!

Yes, it's beautiful.

Please be seated.

Let's drink tea.

Is Kabul beautiful too?

- Kabul?

- Yes.

Kabul is beautiful too.

Why have you come here?

What's up?

This is Salar's letter.

Thank you.

Here is sugar!

So you have a cinema,

Ashraf Khan!

Yes, I have a cinema in Kabul,

its name is Golchehreh.

We're reconstructing its building,

but the apparatus isn't working.

We can't fix it. Can you please

come to Kabul and fix it?

Kabul is not near!

We are neighbors!

Yes! Ismael?

Be careful with the screen!

Put it near the square.

Good job.

I am going to display a movie

for children tonight.

It's a cartoon named

"The stingy man."

Yes.

The more a man has,

the more he desires.

Very good!

How could you build

a cinema in Kabul?

My grandpa was a tea trader.

He used to bring tea from India.

An English merchant

owed him some money.

He gave him an apparatus

instead of money.

Then my grandpa

displayed movies in his village.

People came to see

what is moving picture!

After that my grandpa

built a cinema.

He loved my grandma,

so he named it Golchehreh.

After him,

my father inherited the cinema.

And after him, I inherited it.

I grew up in cinema.

Golchehreh cinema is my everything.

I love cinema. I wanted to become

a director, but now I display movies.

I am happy now,

display movies for children.

I make them familiar

with cinema and dreaming.

Very good!

Is your apparatus Russian?

No, it's an old German one.

- It's so old!

- Yes.

What else do you have?

The manager of a cinema

in Mashhad gave me a lens.

Very good, so we can find

kind people still.

Yes. He was kind.

OK, we'll rebuild your cinema.

First, I have to call my office

and take a mission support letter.

- Then I can go for Golchehreh!

- Thank you.

Watch the movie.

Thank you.

Hello! The moving cinema!

Hello!

How are you?

- Hope you're not tired!

- What has brought you here?

It's a mission! And this is

its support letter for taking the car.

- There is a man in your car!

- Yes, he's Afghani.

- Won't he get out of the car?

- He will!

Get out of the car, Ashraf Khan.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

- Is everything OK?

- Yes, thanks.

Here you are.

- Wow! Ashraf Khan!

- Do you know my friend?

Yes, he was here

a couple of days ago.

He has a cinema!

Where are you going?

I'm going to display a movie for them

and also fix their apparatus.

Where is your passport?

Come here once

and display a movie for us too!

OK, I will I'll do it

when I come back.

Afghanistan is in a bad situation.

Come back soon.

We have to go to Kabul

Don't trust these people.

Take this. Go. Take care.

Thank you.

Go.

- Hello brother.

- Hello.

- How are you?

- Fine, thank you.

Here you are.

- Who's that man?

- He's my guest.

- Can I go and take my car?

- Yes.

Thank you.

Would you please

get out of the car?

What are you saying! Go!

It's my car.

No! I left my car here.

- Which one?

- This one.

This car is for smugglers!

Are you a smuggler?

No, I had a letter

from the interior ministry.

Lower your voice.

Go, otherwise I'll imprison

you and your guest.

You can't! I'll report this.

- Are you threatening me?

- Yes.

Are you threatening me?

Bring that man too!

I'll imprison you both.

OK, I had no car and I had

no letter from the interior ministry.

- Go!

- OK.

Let's go.

What's going on?

Let's go.

Welcome.

They bombarded here!

We have a guest, Shirmorad!

Go and take out my stuff from the car.

It's nothing.

The wall is ruined.

Here you are.

- Hello.

- Hello.

Aren't you done yet?

Here you are.

Hello.

Let's go to the projection room.

- Please.

- Please.

Please.

This is the projection room.

Please.

It's so old! It won't work.

It's from my grandpa.

[Reciting a poem]

Here is Salar!

- Hello.

- Hello.

Finally you forced me

to come to Kabul.

I knew that you would come!

I can't disobey you!

How are you?

- Fine, how is your mother?

- She died.

When?

Her death anniversary

was 2 weeks ago.

- You didn't call me at all.

- I didn't know.

I didn't know that it's so old!

I could bring my equipment if I knew.

I have nothing now.

- Can you fix it?

- I'll do my best.

It's an important thing

for the people of Afghanistan.

I am the man

of important things.

Let's go to my house.

You can rest there.

No, I want to start my job.

I have many things to do.

My wife has cooked you

a delicious food.

- How is your wife, by the way?

- She's fine, thanks.

- You come too, Ashraf Khan.

- Thank you.

Please.

Breathe.

Breathe deeply please.

Good.

- What's your name?

- Parvin.

Hello, Rokhsareh.

Hello, Ashraf Khan, welcome back.

Please come in.

Thank you.

Come here again

when you take your medicines.

Help your mother.

These are what you ordered.

Thank you so much.

This gift is yours.

You had bought many things.

You shouldn't have bought this.

- Don't mention it, please.

- Thank you.

It's beautiful.

Thank you so much.

Can you remember the foods

that Goudarz's mother used to cook?

We can't forget about the foods

that your mother used to cook.

May she rest in peace.

You cook well too. My mother

couldn't forget about you too.

We want to build

the cinema of Afghanistan.

We have found many movies

about the history of Afghanistan.

We have many Iranian movies.

Movies of after and before

the revolution!

Farokh Qafari!

They sent us the "Bicycle Run"

from Mazar Sharif yesterday.

I had watched it in Mashhad.

We'll display it when

the apparatus gets fixed.

I'll do it.

You have not brought water.

Excuse me.

Here you are.

How is your daughter?

She's fine, thanks.

Hello, Goudarz.

Was that Golab's voice?

She is grown up now.

Yes, children grow up fast.

- Haven't you got married?

- No!

So you're like Ashraf Khan.

You can't live during the war.

I wish it doesn't happen again.
