works and enter paradise.

He who works in goodness

will discover how deep is the soul.

Do not prefer desire over faith."

God has placed a light in the soul

that life renders dull.

Here we purify it.

"Immerse yourselves

in the depths of your souls

and meditate on your sins.

Break the seal the devil has pressed

into the whiteness of your soul,

purify yourselves, repent and walk

along the path that leads you to God.

The darkness of the well

will reawaken your sight.

Only he who is not completely lost

will re-emerge empowered

from that well."

Now you too are a disciple.

- Do you know who I am?

- I know.

Who are you?

I don't know who I am.

But you must teach me

the marionettes.

are the only memory

I have of my family.

Will you teach me?

I am indebted to you.

The shah had a beautiful

and intelligent sister,

sweet and happy as an angel

The sister was madly in love

with her brother:

the shah was the only star

that shined in her heart.

One day the entire court

left for the royal hunt,

And do you know what the sister

saw during the trip?

A slave boy,

as beautiful as a flower,

The sister fell in love

with him at first sight.

And she was lost in love.

No, not that story, this part

of the story should not be!

Why?

Because the sister falls in love?

Because it's a sin!

But love is not a sin,

it's a beautiful thing.

"It shakes you right down

to your deepest roots

and fills your entire existence.

Love is the harvest time,

and it strips you down

like the field just harvested.

It will sift you and separate you

from your very skin.

It will grind you down

to the finest flour, white and pure,

and you will be sacred bread

at the glorious banquet of God.

The knowledge of love makes you

a little kindling

in the hearth of creation."

These words come from the very book

you memorized.

Have you been in love?

I don't know...

I think so.

I feel something...

that could be love.

A woman?

Yes, a woman.

Sister... sister!

His sister?

The murders have created

a whole range of problems for us.

Before they arrest us,

mobilize your students

so that they'll be

too scared to touch us.

Who's there?

Stop!

What did I say?

What?

While I was asleep, what did I say?

Something about your family,

your sister...

I'm never sleeping again!

Are you worried about your family?

I don't have a family anymore,

they were all killed except for...

Except for who?

What do you want here, anyway?

The murderer is someone

from this school.

Who?

That's what I want to find out,

and you must help me.

Me?

You're the only person I can trust.

Someone here is abusing

the people's faith.

Watch, this hand reveals many things.

Seyf-o-Allah had a pure heart

from the very first days.

- Seyf-o-Allah?

- He was my best disciple.

We spent unforgettable moments

together.

I would like to relive

those moments before he leaves.

You are making him leave

Despite your doubts?

Seyf-o-Allah has

the smell of paradise about him.

His attraction to you must not

rob us of the privilege

of that heavenly scent.

If you give Seyf-o-Allah back to me,

I will let you remain.

You aren't who you say,

are you?

Leila...

What is that stupid thing where

they all go and look at themselves?

What's it called? Cinema!

They're all rotten!

They shouldn't exist on earth!

Today we'll give them

a taste of death!

A taste of death!

Shut up!

Today, anyone who reads

corrupt books,

those who drink alcohol,

or sing songs,

they're all rotten to the core!

Those women that show

their faces to the men!

Today is the day of the great jihad!

A taste of death!

I was waiting for you.

Today our agreement is up.

You were to give back

Seyf-o-Allah.

I came to you

for a more important reason.

Stop your disciples, this revolt

could end with their deaths!

They are going

to bring God to the people.

With the sword?

What else could bring

a prostitute back to the true path?

Love.

The forbidden chapter!

Now I understand how my best

disciple, the masterwork of my life,

has been seduced.

With these words

you have bewitched my creature.

The master wants you

to go back to the school.

I have just spoken

to His Excellency, the Caliph.

They have given me

the honor of leaving my duties,

it has been decided

that Seyf-o-Allah and I

will be transferred

to a monastery in the mountains.

We will spend the rest of our lives

in meditation.

Before leaving,

I want to get to know you better,

for this reason,

I have invited one of our brothers

to participate in our meeting.

You're a witness that if the

accord had been respected,

it would not have been in my

interest to reveal anybody's secrets.

This is the detective.

Please come in!

Who brought him here?

Seyf!

The day we took this,

Seyf-o-Allah was there.

I've spoken with the Caliph

about Seyf...

I don't care.

I'll go and get that damned man!

Let's go.

Seyf-o-Allah!

Here you are safe, there's no danger.

Leila.

It's not a serious wound.

You'll get better with some rest.

The wound has to be bandaged.

I'll go get what's needed.

Don't move.

Freeze!

Have you seen Leila? Do you know

if anything happened to her?

- Who?

- Leila, the one with the puppets.

Ah, yes, she ran away

She went home.

Are you her brother?

What?

Are you her brother?

The one they said

just turned up lately?

Her brother?

Leila!

That's my little brother

in the photo.

We were separated many years ago.
