I often don't even know
what they're doing.
And if they tell me,
I tend to forget.
The other day,
your younger or older brother...
Older.
He said some inappropriate things.
But I insist...
not to mention the debt collectors.
I wasn't even aware
you were my tenants.
When the rent is not paid, lawyers
do these things automatically.
Understand?
Of course, Mr Aydin. It's obvious.
You have to do these things.
You've been very patient with us.
But, since Ismail came out of prison,
he hasn't sorted himself out yet.
Nobody gives him a job.
I don't see why not, but they don't.
That's why we need time
to get back on our feet.
So, Mr Aydin,
if you could just step in
to stop the eviction...
We will sort something out
as soon as possible.
We really don't want
to lose the house.
in that house.
So if you could give us more time...
What do you expect me to say?
I see your point but...
you need to discuss it with Hidayet.
I don't know anything about it.
Did you talk to him?
- No.
- Talk to Hidayet.
I mean...
There's Hidayet and the lawyers.
You don't need to come to me.
They know more about it.
Don't come to me again.
I don't want to mislead you.
In a country
with a 99% Muslim population,
don't the people deserve men of God
who are cultivated, neat,
whose very presence is reassuring?
The weekly sermon
prepared by our imams,
from their reading,
will be heard
with pleasure and admiration
and will elevate the people.
Islam is a religion
of civilization and high culture.
How's that?
Fine.
It's not too harsh?
No.
Nothing that might be misunderstood?
No.
You don't say anything
about religion itself.
You talk about the practices
of those who apply it.
And I also say
Islam is a religion of high culture.
Of course.
I don't really care for these things.
But you know it's delicate.
But the guy annoys me so much,
I can't stop myself writing.
So he managed to become
the subject of an article.
With his shabbiness,
slyness, vagueness...
You know...
I once played an imam in a play
and got good reviews.
Now when I see him,
I tend to think I wasn't that good.
I missed so many details.
Did you see that play?
Sorry? Which play?
The one where I played an imam.
"Wounded Birds".
Can't remember.
He comes running out in the
first scene, bursting for the toilet.
It must have been when I was abroad.
He comes running on:
"Where's the loo?"
- No. Was it a comedy?
- Yes.
- And first...
- I don't remember.
I want to ask you something.
Not resisting evil...
What does that mean to you?
What?
Not resisting evil, I said.
What do you think that means?
Not resisting evil?
How do you understand it?
Well...
One day, thieves attack you
and you don't resist.
I suppose that's it.
I don't want an example.
Give me a logical definition.
I wonder if there is any logic in it.
A logical definition
of not resisting evil.
Not resisting evil is...
to remain indifferent
to incidents defined as evil
within an ethical framework.
How's that?
For instance, if we were to...
make this idea of not resisting evil
the basis of our behavior,
what kind of life would we have?
What kind of life?
What would it be like?
Thieves, murderers, psychos
would prosper.
Chaos would reign everywhere.
- What would be left, then?
- Left?
Cripples and madhouses.
How should I know?
Maybe you're right.
But I couldn't take the easy way out
like you.
What easy way out?
Maybe you should think about it.
You went a bit too fast.
I didn't. It's simple.
Someone does wrong,
you don't resist. That's it.
What else is there?
I still feel...
we're fooling ourselves
when we're fighting evil.
As if we didn't want to look
at every aspect, we hide some.
Like what?
Fatma, this honey is frozen.
You got another?
- I'll check.
- If not, just put it in warm water.
Instead of struggling against evil,
why not do the exact opposite?
Say you don't want
a painting to be stolen.
It's maybe better
to hand it to the thief.
Maybe it's a better solution.
Say I want to marry an heiress
because her father is rich.
To foil my sneaky plot, she should
throw herself in my arms. Is that it?
But maybe he would be ashamed,
feel remorse
and admit his fault.
Shouldn't we allow for that?
What a ridiculous idea!
Should we allow mass murders
because some killers could regret it?
Even soaps don't
produce such nonsense.
Well, I don't care what you think.
I have my solution.
I see no reason to resist
an evil act aimed at me personally.
Does someone want to kill me?
Be my guest.
Because, if I were to defend myself,
that wouldn't make
But if you defend yourself,
you may not die.
Isn't that worth it?
Trust me, it isn't.
Let's drop it.
I feel depressed already.
What do you think, Nihal?
To be honest...
I don't quite grasp it.
Where does this need come from?
Why do you feel like this?
It's not a need, just an idea.
She wants to help evil get done.
Hold on... Is that how you want
to end evil in the world?
Or do you want
to find peace that way?
She wants to help the baddies
do bad more comfortably.
I'm just saying we should
give evildoers a chance
to feel regret.
A chance for the bad guys, great!
You pretend not to understand.
That's how I understood it, sweetie.
How did you manage that, sweetie?
She's saying evildoers regret it
if you help them do it?
- No...
- That's what I understand.
How can you understand that?
So how do you understand it?
It is very clear what she's saying.
If someone does me harm,
a thief or someone...
I don't resist and by doing so,
stir his conscience...
Stop it. What's got into you two
this morning?
What's this about helping
evildoers do evil?
Who said that?
Is that how you plan to end evil?
You're trying to provoke us now.
I'm just saying what I understood.
Am I wrong?
It's easy to understand.
She says if something bad
is done to us,
by not resisting, the evildoer
may be sorry and give up.
Is that possible?
That's not the question.
I'm just saying one could try.
So the Jews should deport themselves.
So that Hitler doesn't get tired.
He'd say "Here they are,
no point gassing them"?
- You joking?
- No. That's what I understand.
Help evildoers do evil
so they stop doing evil.
Never heard such nonsense before!
I misunderstand
or you aren't making yourself
clear enough.
Mr Aydin,
they're here again.
- Who?
- Hamdi.
- What Hamdi? Hamdi hodja?
- Yes.
- He's here?
- Yes, he's upstairs.
What for?
He already came the other day.
I don't know, he won't say.
He's acting all mysterious.
Not him, not now.
Did you tell him I'm here?
Of course not. I said I'd see.
If he wants to leave something,
you take it.
He came yesterday too.
He didn't leave anything.
- Yesterday, too?
- Yes.
Why didn't you tell me?
We talked about it. You were in bed.
You had me say you weren't in.
Really?
