Turtles Can Fly Page #2
You don't have to worry
while I'm here.
Hello! Who are they?
They are the elders of the village
and the governor is here.
They want to see the news.
Don't show the prohibited channels!
Okay! Who told you to touch it?
Go to the mosque!
- What for?
- Bring the mosque microphone.
- What if the governor doesn't accept?
- The governor is here himself.
Hurry up!
Okay! I have to go now.
Where to?
Tell us what it's saying!
We don't understand.
My job was to install the dish,
which I did.
I have to go now. I did my job.
I'm responsible
for the village children.
I have to make
income for them.
I'll give you money.
I'll give you accommodation.
- Accommodation? You won't.
- I will.
No, you won't.
Last time you promised
but you didn't.
I will. Come and sit down!
We will help you.
I told you not to show
the prohibited channels. Change it!
Don't hit me! I'm looking for
a news channel.
Change it! Change it!
It's prohibited!
Here is Mr. Bush, Esmaeel!
The world is in his hands!
I know! I know!
The world is in his hands.
What is this Bush saying?
Let the teacher come and tell you.
It's not my job.
- He doesn't know anything!
- The teacher doesn't know anything?
I saw him write 28 letters in English
to Mr. Bush with my own eyes.
Try to understand!
Try your best! Tell us
what they are saying.
He says it will rain tomorrow.
What has it got to do with rain?
He keeps saying
it will rain tomorrow!
What's the relationship?
- I think it's a code!
- What code?
Here Satellite!
The mosque microphone!
Go! I'll come in a minute.
Here is Saddam! I'm done here.
You understand Arabic.
Where are you going?
We need you.
All the village children are waiting
for me. I have to go.
Come back for the news tonight!
I want to know about the war.
All right! We'll see.
Riga?
Agrin, where's Riga?
- I don't know.
- What do you mean you don't know?
- Whose child are you?
- Why are you crying?
What's your name?
I think it's the brother
of the girl from Halabcheh.
Don't cry! Don't cry!
Look! I scared him. He's gone.
- How many is this?
- Leave him alone! He can't see.
Look what I'm doing
with the Turk soldier.
Hey, Effendi!
Hey Mr.! Are you fine?
Do you want us to start a war?
Hey, let's go before he kills us.
We didn't want to harm your brother.
He was standing at the border
and he was crying.
He could've got killed.
If it weren't for Satellite
My bike!
What are you doing here?
Where's my bike?
I saw your bike here.
I waited for you but you didn't come.
Then Esmaeel came
I told him I didn't know.
He wanted to take your bike with him.
I told him not to.
He said he would. I said no.
Again he said he would.
I told him I won't let him.
He slapped me on both cheeks,
like this and took the bike.
Why did you let him?
He said Satellite must come
and translate the news for us.
How dare he take my chastity?
Pashow, go with him!
Tell him I can't translate
during the day,
maybe a little at night.
I'll go from this village.
Tell him all the villages
in the region want me.
If he doesn't bring my bike back,
I'll leave this village with the dish.
If they don't return the bike,
I'll leave now. Go, tell him!
Bring it up! Watch the mud!
Follow me!
Esmaeel sent his regards.
He said don't leave. He said
whatever Satellite says is fine.
Where are the kids?
They are collecting mines
with the armless boy.
With him?
Those who work for me
aren't allowed to work with him.
I won't buy mines today, understand?
Those who want to work with me
must come to the shell field tomorrow.
Goodbye forever to those
who don't work with me!
Why are you crying again?
I went after your bike with them.
Esmaeel called me
and slapped me again twice, like this.
I asked why he hit me. He said
it was my ration for tomorrow!
Come on! Bring me down!
Go to your home kids!
We'll go to the shell field tomorrow!
Come and sit here!
Watch your child!
I will only give 10 Dinars to those
who want to work today.
Daddy!
Daddy!
Mummy!
Satellite!
Yes! What is it?
The armless boy said something will
happen to those working in that truck.
- Who said this?
- The armless boy.
- Which truck?
- That one!
I swear I heard it with my own ears.
He left with his brother and sister.
Kids, kids, listen to me!
Those working in that truck,
evacuate the place immediately.
Quickly! Something may explode!
Satellite!
Not all of them are our boys.
It's doesn't matter. Everyone get
off! Aren't you getting off?
My kids get off now! Hurry up!
Hold my bike!
Hey you! Wait!
Hey! Don't you know someone
like yourself who has no arms?
And who can tell the future?
You don't? You know it's you.
I won't tell anyone.
Make some predications for us!
Slowly, slowly!
Listen! Use this mask
when you see white smoke.
Don't use it for black smoke!
It's only for smoke smelling of
garlic and grass.
There is a mask for every family.
Those who don't have masks
must go under water or in the river...
...during a chemical attack.
If you don't find water,
go to high places.
Look at this boy
to learn how to use it!
Listen, war doesn't warn of its
coming.
Bombardment could start any time.
Put the mask on like this
and pull it down over your face.
Come! Don't you want a mask?
Shirkooh, come here!
Yes, Satellite! At your service!
Give this mask to that girl!
Tell her I'll find a smaller mask
for her brother.
Hello!
Satellite has sent this mask for you.
He said he would find one
for your brother.
Out of the way!
Sorry! It's Satellite's orders!
Goodbye!
He said he will definitely find one
for your brother too.
This way! This way! That's fine!
Now go down!
This is the house I promised you.
Today we have many customers.
OK, relax!
I am talking to the refugee children,
not the village children.
Today you will clear
Aziz's field from mines.
Wait there
until my representative arrives!
- Where are you going?
- To Aziz's field!
- OK!
- OK!
You can go
I'll deal with him.
I'll count to three.
"One! Two! Go!"
Get out! Get out!
Now, you come with me
to see the Mr.
Wait here! I'll go and bargain.
I'll try to sell the mines
at the best price. Let's go!
"Hello, Mr.! How are you?"
Why don't you speak properly?
What was that, Ahmad?
There's money in "Hello" these days.
If I don't say hello,
no one answers back.
Do you see these boys?
They don't know you're Kurd.
They think you're a foreigner.
The Americans are coming.
Learn two "OKs" and all will be fine.
"OK, Mr.! How much mine?"
How much for the mines today?
- How many have you got?
- 96.
You used to bring 10 or 15.
What's happened?
How much?
What? 22 Dinars?
Are you pulling my leg?
You paid more before.
You think I don't know that you sell
