History of Mathematics

in Paris.

Specifically, the period

where Euler had

succeeded

to give the first

formal mathematical resolution

to the problem of the seven bridges

of Konigsberg, yes.

Diderot defied the Court

saying:

"Gentlemen ..."

I-ft plus

Equals zero.

So, God exists!"

Niv, Niv, Niv ...

Hello! Do you speak French?

- Yes, of course!

- Can I help you?

Uh, yes, I am looking for someone

who would have known this woman.

She studied here maybe

Are you kidding me?

I wasn't even born.

Well, you're in the wrong

place...

I'm not kidding.

I'm sure you know someone

who can help me.

I have come from far away.

Please. Her name is Nawal Marwan.

You are very kind.

I'm not nice, I want

to get rid of you.

Najat, that's me.

You have time to waste?

That tells me something.

She may have worked in the

campus newspaper.

It's been a long time.

People who leave usually

change identities.

It is striking nonetheless.

Your mother was photographed

in Kfar Ryat.

Look here.

This is a sign of Kfar Ryat.

It is a prison in the south.

You do not know Kfar Ryat?

- No.

You're definitely not from

here.

You don't know the South.

If the international community

does not intervene now

The refugees in overcrowded

camps at the border ...will be

massacred.

She has arrived.

OK.

We, the students, are oppose

against the Nationalist Party

that are trying to evict the refugees

across the borders.

The National Party supports

militias of the Christian right,

who make open threats against

the refugees.

In the South, the refugees

are now armed.

And have the support

of much of the country's Muslim

population.

But you ...you're a Christian.

We are for peace.

Religion has nothing

to do with it.

Nawal!

Put the radio!

They've come to close

the University!

The Nationalists have

closed the campus!

Nawal, come back.

Stay here.

Uncle Charbel, the Nationalists

are closing the campus!

There will be clashes.

Stay with me.

There is shooting outside ...

To the table, girls!

Mom, they're attacking

the university!

It's not a reason not to eat!

Aioua?

Christian villages were attacked

in the South this morning.

May God protect us!

That's why they closed

the university.

In short time, it will

explode here as well.

We'll go to the mountain

until it calms down.

For how long?

We start tomorrow.

The rest of the family

is already there.

And the school?

Anyway, the school will close.

Only God knows how long.

And Le Journal?

Don't be afraid.

Le Journal can survive without

us for a while.

But ideas only survive if someone

is there to defend them!

Exactly, Rafqa.

Exactly.

There are only two orphanages

in the region.

I will join you soon.

You will not go there now!

You had promised Grandma you

would finish your studies.

You heard your father.

It's going to explode across the country

if they attack the camps.

The studies are finished.

I think of him every day.

That's my child.

I want to find him alive.

I'm going to fetch

water from Shadia.

Hurry, Nawal.

- Your name?

- Nawal.

- Nawal what?

- Nawal Marwan.

Where are you going?

South.

What for?

To meet my husband.

Wahab.

You have only daughters?

The older boys are in Kfar

Kout.

You should go with us.

Kfar Kout was attacked

yesterday.

Looking for the orphanage.

You know where is it?

There.

The children?

Where are the children?

You should speak with those

who were there.

The muslim villagers fled

to the camp Deressa.

They fear reprisals will come.

The children may be with them.

Chamseddine and his men killed all the

Christians to avenge the refugees.

Perhaps the children are in Deressa.

Can you take me to the camp in Deressa?

I am a Christian.

My daughter! My daughter!

Mom!

Hi, Simon, it's me!

I am in Mama's village.

I wish you were here with me.

Listen.

Oh, I'm sorry, I do not understand.

I told you never to come here again!

Hello!

Souha?

Ahmed loves you!

Ahmed loves you!

I told you not to say that again!

Hello.

Can I help you?

Hello.

Does anyone speak French

or English?

Where's Sami?

Marhaba!

Marhaba!

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Uh, Jeanne.

Jeanne.

Jeanne.

Uh ...

Thank you.

- You speak French?

- Yes, hello!

Hello.

My name is Samia.

I am Jeanne Marwan.

Thank you for helping me.

Marwan?

There are many Marwans here.

Really?

Well, I'm from Canada.

I'm looking for Souha.

She is Souha.

She is my great-grandmother.

- Oh! Marhaba!

- Marhaba.

The people in the corner shop

told me to come see you.

I am looking for my father.

His name is Wahab.

Uh ...My mother's name

is Nawal Marwan.

She was born here.

We do not know her.

Of course you know her.

The Marwan family was struck with

shame.

When the war came.

Uh, I'm looking for Wahab.

She does not know Wahab.

I can not help you.

Sorry, I'm tired.

If you're Nawal Marwan daughter,

you're not welcome here.

Go home.

She is looking for her father,

but she doesn't know

who is her mother.

I arrived at the end of the massacre

in the Deressa refugee camp.

Everything was burning.

I looked for my son amid

waves of blood.

I was disheartened by what I saw

and heard.

You claim to be against

our enemy.

That does not make you our friend.

Chamseddine. why would

he trust you?

My son's father was

a refugee from Deressa.

My son has been swallowed

by the war.

I have nothing to lose.

My hatred is great toward

the Nationalists.

This is not what you wrote

in Charbel's journal.

My uncle Charbel thought to encourage

peace with words and books.

I believed that.

Life has taught me

something else.

What are you going to do now?

Teach the enemy what

life has taught me.

That's goog. That's good.

You've just forgotten it. Let's go.

So in French?

I ... I am much better, Dad.

They say "a lot" or "best"

but never both at the same

time, my darling.

I want my son to learn to speak

several languages.

I want him to understand others

without an intermediary.

How are you, Nawal?

It's Nouchine.

Good evening, Nouchine.

How's your mother?

My mother is very well.

Tomorrow.

Marhaba.

Hello, beautiful.

Good morning.

Then you will be going out

with us on Thursday?

No.

Friday?

No.

Saturday?

No.

We are patient!

Me too.

Never forget:

"Always" is "always".

F***ing b*tch.

The prison at Kfar

Ryat was comdemmed in

several reports by Amnesty

International.

Here is the women's section.

The cells are larger.

Some prisoners remained

there up to 15 years.

- It has existed since when?

- At the time of the massacres.

Just after the war began.

They have 600 political

prisoners jailed.

You can come in, eh?

I'll take a picture.

You know this woman?

No.

She was imprisoned here.

I don't know her.

It was a really long time

ago, you know? I...

Maybe you know someone

who worked here.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm looking for Harrsa Fahim.

I am the school janitor.

Yes, but before, what were you?

Before, hum!

That was before I became the
