Yes.

Did they tell you who to contact

to go on Jihad?

They think we are more useful

in France.

What you're talking about Hassan?

We're in, remember?

Wait, what do you mean by "useful" ?

They want to import the Holy War into

Western capitals.

Our mission is to start an action cell

in Paris.

This cell can be claimed by Al-Qaeda.

Good!

Think about it.

If you accept it, you can't back off!

But who will order us? Are the orders

coming from here or over there?

Be patient my brother.

What's matter now is to know

if you deserve their trust.

I need an answer from

each one of you.

I've made my choice.

Here or there:
same struggle!

I'm following you.

Me too.

Yeah.

What about you?

Of course!

Of course.

Perfect.

From now on, we're applying

"Taqiya".

Uh, what is it? I..

Dissimulation.

Shave your beard off.

Blend in.

Become invisible.

Always make sure you're not

being followed.

Don't attend clandestine mosques no more.

That's where their informants are.

But above all, no more phone calls

except in case of extreme emergency.

Speak with moderation at work,

in your family.

Smoke! Drink!

Defend Israel and USA if needed but..

we must not let anyone

have doubts.

If someone close to you is doubtful,

avoid him.

Leave her if it's a woman.

We need weapons too.

I'm taking care of it.

Okay.

Thanks dad.

As long as you stop

acting foolish.

Here.

Here, sugar.

Thank you.

To us.

Here it is.

Thanks

Vodka.

Where the f*** is he?

Take it, I haven't collected

unemployment yet.

I withdrew 80.

That's alright brother. Christophe

gave us a cheque from his father.

Yussef, Yussef, please.

Yussef, Yussef, sorry.

Keep your money, it's all good.

Thanks.

Oh Driss, who's your guy?

Ahmed?

Yeah.

A guy I met at the boxing

gym.

In May, he went to the Army.

3 years with paratroopers.

When he came back, he got back into

smuggling but with a different product.

I'm warning you, he's a wind bag.

But the entire projects is buying from him.

I've never had trouble.

What are you doing?

I'm making a film about us.

But don't worry, our faces

will be blurred out.

We need a name for the media

when we will take action.

I thought about that.

What was the name again?

God's soldiers.

No. You serious about that Christophe?

You don't like it?

No, it sounds too Catholic.

It has too be punchier.

It must especially be an English name.

If you want to be recognized abroad.

We could call ourselves

"Charia For France".

What? "Charia For France" ?

Come on, it's impossible to prononce it.

Plus the intials look like a bank name.

It doesn't work.

What about "The French Mujaheddins"?

Something like that.

No, it sounds like a wrestler name.

Something

like "Les Justes" : "The Just Jihad"

It's not that good.

Eh Sam, you got an idea?

One word. In Arabic.

A nifty name?

I'm sorry but this requires

a little extra thought.

It looks like you're starting

a rap group.

[In Arabic] Why are you saying "you" ?

What?

What? Why are you

saying "you" rather than "we"?

"We are trying to form a group!"

You're with us or you're not?

Good question. Well, of course

i'm with you.

Okay!

Guys, we're good to go.

What are you doing?

Take the ball.

Come on.

Walther PPK. Available in several calibers.

6.35, 7.65, 22LR, 9mm

Polished, discreet, effective.

James Bond's weapon.

We possess the mini Uzi too.

Put it away, you crazy or what?

9mm Parabelum, 4 kilos.

You can take down a whole team.

Very effective.

How much?

2000 for you.

Too bad I only brought 1000.

You're mistaken, that was the price for you

to go down in the third round.

Because of going down so much,

half of his face was like that.

3500 for all three.

What a funny guy.

3500 for both Uzis.

The PPK stays with me.

And concerning ammunitions?

You're on your own.

I never sell ammunitions along with weapons

I don't want to get f***ed up.

What are we supposed to do with only

ammunitions?

I just told you it's none of my business.

Ahmed, how long have we known each other?

Why are you making me look like

a clown here?

You're a clown.

It's for the Cause

my brother.

What cause? What are you talking about?

My pocket is my cause, okay?

Just because I bang your two sisters

doesn't mean I'm your brother.

I swear, both of them.

Driss, Driss, Driss.

Don't move you wog.

Yeah it's better for you.

Okay, no ammunitons.

but give us a good price.

Why?

Let's not make any trouble here.

My brother. 2500 for all three.

3000 and we're good.

You should have let me beat

him up.

I spend my whole life breaking

his f***ing mouth.

Maybe but that other guy

was carrying a gun.

And a cross tattooed on his arm.

They are ex-military, those kaafir have

Muslims blood on their hands.

Don't be ridiculous Driss, his name

is Ahmed after all.

Don't you see this cocksucker only care

about himself?

I bet he'd kill his own mother for 1000.

And besides, he talks about

my sisters.

I should have beaten the f***

out of this kaafir.

I can't.

I'm taking my boy to the palace.

If this is for your kid...

At the end of day?

Not before 19h.

There are even grenades, f***!

Look at these!

Stop it guys!

They'll know it's us.

Driss?

What are you doing ?

I'm making a film about us.

But don't worry, our faces

will be blurred out.

"We are trying to form a group!"

You're with us or you're not?

Good question. Well, of course

I'm with you.

Allahu akbar

Why did you get back to us only today?

One thing after another.

I couldn't do anything.

You're aware that you're considered

as an accessory now, aren't you?

Well, I suppose you're

a careful journalist.

So you probably know how many

fundamentalists like your friends...

are present on the territory, right?

I can't see the connection.

More than 3000.

That is for the official number.

To tell the truth, we don't know anything.

Including tail, wiretaps and surveillance,

it would take over 10 cops per capita...

to ensure full control.

Except this time, you just exposed

one cell that we knew nothing about.

Do you intend to keep on?

What's wrong with you?

They're carrying weapons.

Problem is not the fact they're

carrying weapons, but how..

they're going to use them.

And especially on whose behalf?

Your Hassan must have some chiefs in France

This network is probably forming other

cells on the territory.

We're not doing anything as long

as we don't know who's giving orders.

So we need names.

No. It's too dangerous.

You should have thought of that before.

If you won't cooperate,

we'll have to arrest them straight away.

And you will fall down as well.

I can guarantee that when they'll learn

about your betrayal in jail,

they won't miss you.

We're setting up a device and in case

of emergency we will get you out of here.

It means I don't have a choice?

No.

Wait Driss! I bought that when I was a kid.

It means a lot to me.

Thanks.

Games too ? Okay.

Driss?

Wait! Not the TV!

There's no need.
