I'm not Angry [2014]
Iranian Movie
A film by Reza Dormishian
Where were you?
Mr. Bagheri called and
said to go over now.
-What does he want now?
-He said to go over.
No way
It's not that
- Hi
My money is your money
It's not much
It's just 340 or 50 gold coins
Tell me
Yes
Don't worry
Your name won't be mentioned, yes
Cash this
Yes
Don't worry
No leave it to me
My name is Navid it's the name
my dead father chose
It means good news something
that brings joy
I've been taught to stand on
my own two feet and fight
That's all I do, the circumstances,
life, traitors
I've principals I won't let people walk over
I'm not afraid of anything
I have to take what's mine and I will
I'm 26 but I feel 260
There's no balance
- He's a businessman
Should I bounce it?
No wait let me call
There's no balance
Should I bounce it or not?
Cash it?
It's empty, how?
I know Mr Samavati but
it's better if you call sir
Yes
Ok sure, bye
Hamed what's Bagheri saying?
He gave me a cheque to cash
There's no balance
He says to go over and make him pay
What's he like
I don't know what the money's for.
It's not my problem
He can do whatever he wants
What's this?
- Your cheque
I'm not blind. I can see that
You were supposed to cash it
I said to-
- Shut your hole
Who are you to say?
I tell you and you say yes
You'll go over cash this
and get back
How else would I pay your wage?
Hey! Take the cheque
How dare you come to work
when you're this clumsy
Watch it
- I'll talk to you the way you deserve, fool
Why are you dragging this out?
- What will you do?
I'm not angry
This isn't my job
Who are you then?
Look at me
Who are you then?
Pill popper, you think I don't know
you're high on pills?
Take this
I'm not angry
- What have your stupid parents taught you? Addict
I'm not angry
I'm not an angry person
I don't want to be
The doctor said to repeat this
so I stay out of trouble
But I can't. Sometimes it's necessary
Especially when you have
to stand up for yourself
But the doctor says I can control myself
I don't know why I couldn't just now
It's like the first day I saw my doctor
I'm confused, unsettled
I feel like I'm behind
I feel
I feel miserable
I want my life to go faster
I'm ageing but nothing is changing
What made you think to come here?
I noticed the sign I had a feeling to come
I don't know it just happened
I think you could help
When did it start to feel this way?
How long has it been?
A long time but I got worse
the past 3-4 years
I...
Don't hold back tell me everything
It might sound bad but sometimes
I want to hit someone over the head
I can't help it
There are images in my mind
And I see myself hitting someone
Have you actually done it?
Have you ever battered someone?
No it's more no
I don't mean it.
It's a reaction in the moment
Like I...
I hate car horns
The lights are red,
why do you beep your horn?
It's red
It has to go green for you to drive
Beeping your horn doesn't
change anything, fool
His wife is sitting there.
He beeps his horn so it goes green quicker
You have to batter him
Someone who doesn't understand
The horn isn't to annoy others
I've realised some people need to be battered
Enough beeping!
Wouldn't you do it?
Of course I had to hit the scumbag
I'm in a group with my friends
discussing politics
One of my friends
Defends a useless politician
The politician isn't
a relative of mine or his
I get annoyed
I get angry, when he chats shit
about someone he doesn't know
I want to strangle him, shut up
Shut up
Don't talk when you don't get it
Pull his tongue out so he goes mute
Press his head
Why do you look at me like that?
You think I'm crazy?
I shouldn't have said.
You think I'm crazy?
I feel sorry for myself for these people
You're not to determine
who deserves to be hit
You've citizenship rights
If they're being ignored,
hitting isn't the way to go
Whenever you feel yourself getting angry
Tell yourself you're not angry
I'm not angry
I'll give you pills to take
3 times a day to calm you down
I took the pills as of that day
They worked miracles and I felt better
It relaxes me and I forget my problems
I become someone else
Nice, kind
I see the world the way I want
But I lied to the doctor about something
It wasn't the sign
Vahid told me to go see him, he'll help
Vahid Tarantino is my housemate
We've been friends for 3 years
We live in our studio that's closed
and become our house
It's the pills
It reserves energy
Do you agree everyone is
on something these days?
Whoever says no is lying
Stop Reza
There's no perfect person
I don't understand why
you've let yourself go
Use something like us
Let yourself to be controlled
It's fun. Stop Reza
It relaxes you
Not totally gone though what is this life
Stop Reza
Stop Reza
I said to stop
Vahid and I have another
housemate too. Reza Bandar
He moved from Bandar to
Tehran to start a band with Vahid
Stop Reza
I said to stop
Everyone has a band these days
Like Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull
No one could listen to their other tracks
People who think
they're so good at picking
Don't realise this undermines humanity
The legends have been and gone
Beatles, Moody Blues and Rolling Stones
in the 60s
The progressive guys blew up the 70s
Who can replace Yelpie,
Genesis and Kim Crimson?
They want to modernise music they don't know
Planting a tree without roots
on the moon isn't so cool
Peter Gabriel might not
be good at changing tyres
But he makes good music
We were born at a time that
our good ideas sent us wandering
They're mostly minstrels people are happy
Nothing good will happen here
We're polluted
You have to keep playing cheesy to stay
Then feel like heroes
Then people say it's life
they have to make money
Shut your hole
Art has discipline
You have to know the roots then bend them
Otherwise we wouldn't be the dossers
They all have to respect me one day
They think just because they're celebrities
Their piss smells of Dior and our's stinks
I'd never want to become that
But I didn't sell myself out
I'm still the best
Still pure
Who'd believe I'm 27?
Who's responsible for the 8 years I lost?
I couldn't work for 8 years
8 years
God help us
Song: A woman can't be your homeland
Love songs are filthy
The Kurdish poets among the mountains
Mostly reach the same conclusion
Loneliness is here the way it is
Even darker and more bold
I'm here as usual
This is Ahmad he's a coward
He wasn't always this way
he became one
After his brother's story
He changed and became a different Ahmad
He's still loyal
It's your fault
Who'd hit his boss?
How could I ask for your money?
Aren't you friends with his accountant?
I asked for a favour
- You could've hit him at the end of the month
They've people everywhere
You know what happens if he turns you in?
- What have I done?
Do you understand what you're doing?
Your studies and now this
I don't get why you feel sorry for people
Which one of the ones you were expelled for
Asked if you're dead or alive?
Where are you?
Where are you going?
- I came here to feel better
I hate your attitude
I wasn't the top student at uni
but my grades were always good
It didn't go as planned
My heart is still at uni
That's Setareh
The Setareh uni gave me
As Dr. Shariati said
Ali was the man who
was a leader in Africa
But he had no political prisons
Even one political prisoner
Excuse me sir!
You've been quoting other people so far
Why don't you say what you think?
This is the trend now.
Quoting big people to look big
Why are we losing the confidence
to express our own opinions?
You're reading off the books
We could've done that at home
You just took the class time
Have I?
Who other than Shariati?
Can anyone ignore Shariati?
Is that what I said?
Why do you put words in my mouth?
- Do you have a problem with Shariati?
I don't and I'm not disagreeing with you
don't change my word
You get what I'm saying
We were supposed to discuss the idea
To tell us what you think
Not to quote others
Tell us your opinion too
so we can discuss it
Isn't that using others' points
to get to where you want?
That's all
Sorry
The university's top student vandalising
the lecturer's car
Look he claims to be educated
He binned the bottle too
How would he clean it?
How many books have
you read by Shariati?
Which one is the real you?
How much?
- What?
The price for selling people out
This? It's not for sale it's a memento
What?
- A memento
What's your problem with me?
I don't, I deleted it
Let's see
But don't make statements
in class then vandalise cars
Ok let's see if you've deleted it
Let's see
Vandalisation is better
than filming people in secret
Bye
Hey
That's my number, save it.
Text me before 12
Look
Cute. Let it eat
Put him down, Navid
Do you want to study at uni?
So what's the end?
Nothing
We'll die and end there
Some people never end
Does Mosadegh ever end?
Why do I get tears in my eyes when
I think of Dr. Mosadegh and Dr. Fatemi?
As long as there's history there's Mosadegh
Or Ghandi
This man doesn't end
What about us?
What about us?
- Will we end too?
For each other
Will our love end too?
Where were you?
- Here with you
Where's your mind wandering?
With you
Are you feeling down?
- No
Are you feeling low?
- No
Are you ok?
No. Everything is a no today
Thanks I'm good too.
Exam went well
You're always good I'm the bad one
You're the best
Let's get candles
Let's go to a cafe first
- Let's get candles I feel down
I love you, how could I say no?
You can't
I'm not so ok Navid
- Like me. What is it?
Don't make a scene or
think bad things
Stop
Promise?
- Promise
Dad says things
He says it's not serious with us or
we'd have figured a way by now
He says I'm not at an age for
relationships I'm one year older
I don't like it when
he asks what the plan is
What's the plan?
Your dad aside. What do you want?
It's obvious what I want
He's worried, ok?
It'd be different if my mum was alive
It's obvious for us
- For us not him
What should I say?
Say you want me
You want me
I want you
Say you love me
- I love you
Say you're in love with me
- I'm in love with you
Say you're crazy about me
- I'm crazy about you
Say you'd die for me
- I'd die for you
Shout
- Don't shout
Bye
- Don't go
Stop. My dad is home
I have to speak to her dad
What would I say?
I've no money?
What's my job?
If he asks where I work
Where I'm going to take her
How much money I have
What's happening to me?
I'm scared
But the best answer is this
Now I feel everything will be ok
It'll work out
It might take time but it'll happen
Things always work themselves out
He lives in the same country
I'll talk to him
What am I scared of?
I have to keep calm and control myself
How's Navid?
Good
- Will you come for dinner?
Is Vahid ok?
Yes he's sat here we're playing
He has lost it
He's been singing nonstop all day
I'm tired
I was about to hit the addict
We still have
4 months left to stay here
We'll all end up homeless
Shut it this house has character
it's like murder
You're chatting shit
I said to report it to the council you didn't
I don't own the house
they can evict me if they want
Did Reza tell you?
We're organising a concert
You can't get a permit
We can
- You can't
Not your band
- I'll get it
You can't
I'll get it
Stop! I have to
I don't want to be quiet anymore
I kept quiet for 8 years
They made money for 8 years
I kept quiet for 8 years
now things are different
I want to organise a concert,
I'll get the permit
Got it?
I'll meet with Setareh's dad
What would he say if I speak to him?
I shouldn't be so negative
Setareh's dad works here
Mr Javadi is a good man
What are you doing here?
Setareh said-
- How dare you both! Get out
Watch it
- Get out
What's wrong?
- I'll call the police
Mr Javadi
- Hands off
I have to control myself and not lose it
I'm not angry
What? I'm fine
I shouldn't lose it
- It's all wood with foam
It's from Turkey
- Hello
Wow it's Navid what brings you here
Wait for me I'll come see you
- Are they really made in Turkey?
It's all made in China including myself
There's a 5 year warranty
Navid not there
The next
But it's an original
You'll feel confident for 5 years
Hi Navid. Sit
How's everything?
- Good not bad
Have you been to Kurdistan
to see your mum?
I haven't had time
What about mum?
Will she visit?
She's ill so she can't
Aw
I'd go to Kurdistan if I was you
You're all glued to this town
I was telling Setareh last night
I said I wish we'd move too
To take a breather
Hello
- Hi haji
He's filthy rich
Good thing you came Navid
I want a word with you
- Sure
You're like my own Navid
- Thanks
You know Setareh's happiness
is everything to me
4 years ago. Your friend
She went through a lot
I'm worried for her
With the sanctions and expenses
Yes you're right
What's your plan?
We want to think of something
Careful
It won't make it downstairs like that
I've a favour to ask
Since I know you love Setareh
Make her happy
You love Setareh, right?
- Yes
If you do let her be happy
You love Setareh, right?
So let her go
Hi
- Hello
Sorry I don't understand
I'm a scumbag? I know
But I've this one child
I've raised her alone for 15 years
I'm over 50 Navid.
What do I have?
How much do you think I made after 23 years?
I've rented my house
Thank god I make enough
But I won't make it if
I don't work everyday
You want to start from zero?
With these prices?
How much do you think this furniture is?
How long will you work to buy it?
4 Years are a lifetime
I know you want to take
her to your place
Work day and night
Because you love each other?
- Setareh and I are engaged
We'll end it
So many people go through divorce
this is just an engagement
Excuse me! Mr Javadi
Coming
What if they scratch it?
You think I'd just let them go?
I'll escort them to the lorry
Let's go
Your marriage with Setareh is a mistake
I didn't object because of Setareh
The keep closing off the roads
I'm worried for you too
Why should you ruin your life for Setareh?
Don't you want to enjoy your life?
You'll be tired of this life in 2 years
Do you have a car? A house? A villa?
Inheritance?
Move
My dad married with a tenner
You can't marry with 20 million now
Why should you ruin your life for Setareh?
I told my mother I wanted to marry
3 Months later there I was
I'm worried for you
Let me marry her off to someone rich
I'll find you a job myself
You have to marry a rich girl too
Marriage isn't the same
One side has to be loaded
I'll find you the right person
Please Navid
Forget about her
Let me show you something
You didn't slow down at the humps
will you answer if they?re damaged?
Sorry
Come here Navid
What's this?
Tower
- How much is it?
I don't know
- Can you afford an apartment here?
Can you even rent here?
How old are you Navid?
Shahram. That's a successful man
You brought me here to patronise me?
- No so you'd open your eyes
What does he have that you don't?
A little stealing, a few connections
- No
Rich people are thieves,
poor people are lonely
His dad could be rich, it's his inheritance
His dad paid for him to build it
- His dad is a simple worker
He bought all his furniture from me
I know everything about him
How then?
What's it to us? We don't care
Let me make her happy Navid
Please I beg you
Don't do this to Setareh
- Mr Javadi
I promised her mother not to marry
What's he saying?
Does Setareh know?
I helped her education to be someone
What should I say?
I have to prove
I have to prove I can do it
Let her go, ok?
Give me some time
How many years?
Tell me how much you make
and I'll tell you
What are you afraid of?
You won't get far like this
Do you understand what you're saying?
What else should I have done?
Save you still can't rent a single room
Just a month
To come back with a house, a car and a villa?
Or to deal with it?
2 months, 2 years even
I know nothing will change
Just a month, then it's whatever you say
You either get lost or
Shut it
I'll kill you Shut it
Don't chat shit
I'm not angry
So make a promise
Don't mess with her head
What am I supposed to do?
Deal with it and get back to Kurdistan?
Or to tell Setareh everything?
Or fight her dad?
But I have to prove I can
To him, to myself, to Setareh
Setareh is mine
I've lost everything I wont lose her
But I have to teach Shahram a lesson first
How did he get all this money?
What's it to me?
Yes
I want to see Shahram the owner
He just left in his Porsche.
You didn't see him?
Does he really own the whole place?
Are you from the tax company?
No I want an apartment to buy
You have to go to sales not Shahram
When is he in?
- Usually in the afternoon
Is he married?
He's not crazy
No he's single
Thanks

Bagheri swore so I hit him
So what? Shouldn't he pay me?
Hamed I need my money

Why are you here?
He lost it and kicked me out
He says I'm cheap musician
Am I?
- Calm down

Who the hell is he?
He just talks, Navid
He thinks he's Freddie Mercury

I work, I compose and he shows off
I'm tired Navid
I came to Tehran for the stage

He plays at weddings
So?

I want to play, what's it to you?
The torturer says the same,
he carries orders
You've a commitment
At least I play at weddings you just sulk
Stop
- You played cheap
Who are you to define art?
- Miserable soul
I know what your problem is
Why are you taking it out on me?
Shut it
- Does that solve the problem?
Let's see
- Stop just go

Your life has to be going somewhere
For a woman to come into your life
The day Samira left for Kamyar
Kamyar called me
He asked should I get a cab?
I said no
What can I do when
she doesn't want me?
If not now, a while later
That's what a musician girlfriend is like
I want someone to listen to all the songs
I've in my heart before I die
You pay for 1 month
Then
I'll call
Yousef Abad is expensive
Gisha is cheaper
I've Marzdaran and Sattarkhan

Luxury place or just a house?
A small one-bedroom but in good condition
What price?
I don't have much so
it has to be affordable
Are you married or single?
- Married
For real?
Yes
- Sure I ask for the neighbours
I've a good one
Deljoo
I said good condition I can't live there
I wouldn't even send you there if
I knew how much you had
If that's rent, how much is it to buy?
500 do you have it? No
I can find places 2 million a month
3 million a month
500 is 40 years worth of wages with Bagheri
That's if I stayed and got paid in time
What kind of dad is he Setareh?
He's nothing like you
You don't even look similar
let alone your thoughts
What am I supposed to say?
Your dad told me to let you go?
Was he mean?
- No
You two just meet and talk
He always says Navid is smart
Go on you said hi then
He's worried for our future
He doesn't have a problem
Wow big news
Concentrate and tell me what he said
Should I tell you the truth?
What should I say?
There'll be a fight
I can't say
Who am I to know?
It's between you two
He said to get a move on
Are you happy?
He's being mean
I'm not that old
You are

You randomly say Shahram with a tower?
He's a fresher at uni
Sure he got into my uni to flirt with me
He wouldn't dare
Navid, I'm not as great looking
to others as I'm to you
You're the most attractive girl in the world
I don't want to hear otherwise
I'll beat him up if I see him around
You're just riling yourself up
Was he on my Facebook?
Do I even check Facebook?
- Ok

Wow
Idiot
- Get angry
"Shahram"
Setareh
God I don't want anything from you
I just want Setareh
No cars, villas, houses nothing
I want the basics so
I can be with Setareh
How's this fair?
Someone becomes me
Someone else is Shahram
You must've given us something
Something we don't know about
Are you sure mum?
Dad didn't have anything?
Paperwork nothing?
Shouldn't you have thought of the future?
I've nothing, what do I do now?
Others have everything,
what about me?
Why do you cry now?
I'm your son I'm talking to you
Why do you cry?
Why them?
I shouldn't have called
I have to get the money
I don't want to lose Setareh
It's your fault
You're like our Gholi in Bandar
They say to come dance
He says there are girls there I can't
But as soon as
they're gone there he is
1 day 2 days 3 days stop Navid
You either don't do anything
or finish what you started
It's over
I doubt you're sane
You've a spell
I have to take you to Hormoz
to see Safiyeh and Abbas
To go through the ritual
I'll see Hamid
I don't like him but he can help
He's my cousin
Dr. Hamid
A dealer now
I haven't seen him in ages
The only person who
made it from our family
You have an appointment?
- No
Can I ask what it's regarding?
I'm his cousin, Navid
Excuse me! Your cousin, Navid is here
We've no relationship with my uncle
Maybe I shouldn't have come here
I can go if he's not in
Maybe I shouldn't have come here
I can go if he's not in
He's in a meeting.

No worries

Aren't you tired of each other?

Get to the point
I want money, can I borrow some?
How much?
I don't know but I'll give it back soon
It's Canada. They keep calling
Hi haji, what's the new brand?
Ok
Where's Hamid?
He left a long time ago
He did?
- It was urgent
There has to be someone who could help
This is family others are better
Hi Sasan
It's really bad Navid
Everyone is stealing
One size bigger
They just ask for money
It's not right
Remember Farid?
- Which Farid?
The one who opened a restaurant
He borrowed 1 million from
each person and ran off
That's not a job it's petty
Naser had it the worst
He got tickets and went
to Dubai and found him
He punched him broke his teeth
He was owed 2 million,
he ended up paying him
18 for 3 months, 30 for 6 months
No the proxy works for all websites
Yes send it to the card number, bye
Navid I'm a big fan
Same I missed you
How are you getting on?
- I want a different style
This is my life
I studied management
I manage the store now
Try this
At least I studied management
Doctors and engineers are
dealers these days
That's where the money is
No offence but you have to do the same
Or stick to some loaded woman
Why can't I marry one of them?
None of them shop here
I'd go for it
You know
I don't care if it's disconnected
It's the server not me
That's what VPNs are like
Sasan is a fraud
he chats shit about others
He borrowed 100 from Asghar
still hasn't paid back
When 100 was something not now
Why did you go there?
Would I come to you?
- You can see my life
But my concert is happening
- You got your permit or a place?
I'm not so cheap to play underground
I'd have done it by now
He won't settle for anything
less than Wembley
Dice your garlic
Why didn't you go to Mohsen?
Which Mohsen?
- The one at the back of the class he's tell on us
You're right
Where's he?
- They say he has a job
Do you have his number?
- No but I've his address
I started from car radios
What?
- Yes installing them onto cars
You have to start somewhere
I had no money to invest you knew
But I'm all in
I'm all about friendship
Come work here
How much do you want?
Thanks
- Are you in?
I need some in advance
Sure bro
How much is dollars now?
3800 from 800
Who's the winner?
You'll become independent
if you take my advice
You won't forget me
What's my job?
How much is it?
Is it fair for someone
to own this and you don't?
Don't you deserve a boot or
a tyre from this car?
What can I say? Yes
Good so take what's yours
I don't get it Mohsen
Importing these cars is hard,
the parts are harder
That's why we use what we have
Off the streets
Off the same cars
We'll sign a monthly contract
You'll get us what we need
So I have to steal?
Thanks! When did I say that?
How else then?
It's not stealing, they're all insured
The owner is more than happy to be paid
That's what insurance is for
So it's not stealing, see?
I just offered it to you
Modernise yourself
Why did he think of me that way?
It's my fault
This isn't my job
I have to get to my own job
I knew he'd say this
- Say what?
Criminal background check it's the law
Speak to him, I'm not a thief
It's the law Navid he
doesn't care if it's political
You've a file
A criminal record
Why do you say you were expelled?
They let you go
Do you know any other place?
It's the same everywhere
The pay will be so low anyway
Navid why don't you leave Iran?
Setareh you've no idea
how bad I'm doing
What am I supposed to do?
I've tried all my life and
I'm getting nowhere
I don't want to lose you
You mean everything to me
I wish I could tell you all of this
I've no one other than you
I'm under pressure
Navid
Yes
Who's Shahram?
Where did he come from?
No one is at uni with that name
You looked into it
Yeah it was a good case to miss
I said to tell me when you're annoyed
You're annoying me
You went and looked into it already
Stop the evil eye
I love it
You don't go to uni
you're better than everyone
I've a good teacher
Do you remember Haleh, Navid?
Who?
The pretty one my classmate
She fancied me
- She's married you idiot
She was single before
Her husband got a loan for 2 or 300
They're getting a house
How much?
- 2 or 300
Where?
- Some bank
I should say since he got it
I have to get the same?
They'll say sure
Of course they won't
27% interest?
Yes otherwise everyone would apply
2 guarantors
With governmental jobs and payroll
With the paperwork
I wouldn't apply if I owned a place
Is there another way?
A guy just asked for a loan
to buy a kidney for his child
I don't control it
Kidney?
Between 800 or 850
Let me know
Can I get a job here?
Are you looking for a house or a job?
Both
It's all commission based here
There's no stable pay,
can you handle it?
Yes
Do you have what it takes?
- Yes
Hi
- Hello
What's wrong?
Where are you going?
Stop
I don't like you walking ahead, stop
Hey
I don't like you walking ahead
People are looking it's bad
I'm talking to you
- Stop
I'm talking to you
What's wrong? Shouldn't I know
what I've done wrong?
That's me who doesn't know
- Has someone said something?
Were you at work, Navid?
Do you go to work?
- Yes
Were you at work, Navid?
- Yes I swear
Fine
I want to talk
- Shouldn't you have told me?
You lie to me everyday
When?
- You could lie about other things too
What lies?
- Did I batter Bagheri?
You're beating people up
and not telling me
He needed it
- Get to it then
I got a new job you won't let me talk
Go for good
I'm sorry
I said I'm sorry
Should we have samosas? Vegetarian
Do you really do viewings?
- Yes
You're an idiot
- Why?
I finished class early went to your work
They said you hit him
you were fired
You wouldn't tell me
I tell you everything
Then you didn't tell me about this
What would you do if it was me?
I'd squash and chop you up
No
- I'd hit you
Whatever don't lie to me
- Sure
Don't hide anything
- Sure
Don't say sure like that
- Sure
Yes
- Mr Talebi's contract is ready
What?
- Mr Talebi's contract is ready
Is it him or his son?
- Him
Guide them in
I'll write the contract if thats ok
In the name of god
Mr Talebi is a landlord
Ms Saadat is our client
I've found her houses myself
What's your husband's occupation?
She lives with her brother
Yes
- Where's her husband?
We separated
- What?
We live separately
I said no singles
She's not alone
she lives with her brother
Ms Sharifi
- Saadat
Ms Saadat is a trusted client
I don't care.
What would the neighbours say?
That's rude
- Excuse me!
Why did you arrange this?
You're wasting our time
I said
- You said no single people
She lives with her brother
- Is that so?
What?
- Excuse me! She doesn't mind the price
I care about my house
It's a house not a brothel
You think you can treat women like that?
Watch it
- Get lost Taliban
She said it's her brother not boyfriend
Your assistant doesn't get it you do
I said no
It's your mistake
He says no single,
yes he's a scumbag what's it to you?
He's the landlord he decides
You stood arguing with him?
They landlords are the most important
I didn't know
- We'll be broke this way
I've 120 assistants and dealers here
One bought a house
One couldn't be promoted
Deljoo an example
Then you keep complaining
Tell us if you're in or out
Morad
Why aren't you watching?
I love you
What?
I love you
I'm crazy about you
I'd die for you
Me too
Stop
Why?
I love the way you?re watching the movie
I'm in love you
Stop I can't concentrate
Navid
Don't go I'll die
I'm fine
What's all this Hamed?
You could've said you couldn't get
the money off Bagheri
I'm with Ahmad, where are you?
Why did you bring me here?
- 3000 billion toman was embezzled
Shut it
Minus the kids thats 60 million population
How much was taken from each citizen?
That's 50 thousand each
Forget it
Don't you want to help out your friend?
No why would I?
Bagheri isn't such a big deal
He's still angry
Don't go around there
he's looking for you
They came to me
The money is nothing to him
He'd give it to you if he meant to
You know how much he has?
One of the guys had noticed
You should be afraid of him
He can get one of his people
You're dead
Nader was looking for you
Nader?
Is Nader working for Bagheri?
No
But Nader isn't so decent
Careful
I don't care
I love how you battered Bagheri
Who the hell does he think he is?
I heard you've a bad temper Navid
We're looking for someone like you
We can work together
No
- Why?
Fake fights we'll take the bags
Stop I'm talking
I know you don't want to work with us
No
- Why?
There's so much I can't tell you Setareh
I don't know how
I can't talk
I'm so miserable
- I love you
Don't look at me that way
What is Navid?
Why do you talk to yourself?
You think I don't know? I hear it all
I had enough
I'm tired
I've been meaning to say but I can't
I'm so worried about life I'm not living
I'm forgetting what love is
Your dad wants me to be a thief I can't
I'm not a thief, a criminal, a dealer
I can't be. I'm clumsy
Who could ever get all those things?
I can't. I can't even afford
to go to a cafe
I can't. I'm clumsy
I'm tired.
I won't ever make it. I'm tired
Nothing is coming together Setareh
Your dad is right this isn't working
You can marry Shahram I can't make you happy
You think I don't know?
What if you told your dad
Navid
What is it?
Why don't you talk to me?
I'm restless, confused,
the pills don't work
I'm always stressed
A nervous feeling
As if something is about
to happen but it doesn't
Like an earthquake
I'm waiting for it to go off but it's not
You were supposed to come back
a week later why didn't you?
I didn't have the time.
I've discovered something new in myself
I don't like seeing people happy or laughing
It brings me down I can't help it
Do something
Are you heartbroken?
No but
I will do
- The future is made up of images in our heads
You have to think positive to see positive
Tell yourself you're happy
You have to fake it until you make it
What about the voice in my head?
I can't talk to people
I'm talking to myself
I think of what to say or not say
What to do
What to say
I'll give you something stronger,
but just one a day
Do you make enough money?
Not bad
Do you need an assistant?
We've let so many go here
We've a caretaker he loves to work at a clinic
Navid
Get up Setareh is here
Hi
Navid what?s my dad saying?
He said you agreed for us to end it
No
Can I take my guitar?
- Yeah
Who's lying? You or him?
We spoke I asked for a month's time
To buy a house and a car?
To compensate for 4 years in a month
You can't so we end it
You got a month to end it
You're a real man
That's your dad
What?
You didn't speak to him for 4 years
We haven't made progress
You love me a lot Navid
but what did you do?
What have you done?
Nothing
When you say it
My dad has guests on Thursday
He said I should be home
Do you understand that?
Who is it?
What?
- Who is he?
Does it matter?
- It does to me
What's his name?
Do you understand what's happening?
Do you understand what I'm saying?
So much for the things I did
What did you do?
He said you're a guest you said ok
I'm -
Whose side are you on?
Me or your dad?
What is it, Navid?
Why do you think
everyone is against you?
They've taken what's yours
I've no rights
Why are you so aggressive?
- How?
You think only you were expelled?
We wander around on the streets aimlessly
You're right
Your dad lied to marry you off
What did he have when he married?
What did he have?
What did I do?
What else should I have done?
What else could I do?
Did I want to be here?
Who's the aggressive one now?
You showed off at uni for being with me
Now I wait across the road
Why did I stay in Tehran?
Why?
You're still studying where I was expelled
Take a look at the variety of colours
Thank you so much
Navid
Take a look, come here
We spoke
- Come here
You gave me time
- Calm down
What is it?
- You've invited guests on Thursday
Calm down
- You're taking Setareh away
Lower your voice
You couldn't wait a month
Over my dead body
Do you understand who I am, Navid?
I'm Javadi Setareh's dad
Over my dead body
You?re angry right now
- I'm not angry
You are
- I'm not angry I'll kill you and burn the place down
I'll make a scene
Calm down
You can marry Setareh I don't mind
But I'm still telling you
You don't get it right now
What's love?
Is this Setareh's future?
If that's all you see,
I've nothing to say
Make a decision
Shahram?
Yes
- You don't look the part
Wow Navid
- Don't you want to pay me?
Where were you before?
Sit I'll get it for you
You're a fool
Seriously
Was I wrong to help you?
Would it be hard to hurt you?
Now we're even
I don't want to owe you kid
Setareh
- Yes
Should we forget it all and go?
Where to? It's our home, our country
Your dad is right
It'll be fine
What will?
We keep saying it will
It gets worse each day
What's that?
Pills I take to calm me down
They don't work anymore
Give one to me
We'll take it together
Bye
Setareh
Yes
I want to talk to your dad
Right now
God, what am I to do?
who gives hearts peace
I'm not Angry [2014]
Iranian Movie
A film by Reza Dormishian
Where were you?
Mr. Bagheri called and
said to go over now.
-What does he want now?
-He said to go over.
No way
It's not that
- Hi
My money is your money
It's not much
It's just 340 or 50 gold coins
Tell me
Yes
Don't worry
Your name won't be mentioned, yes
Cash this
Yes
Don't worry
No leave it to me
My name is Navid it's the name
my dead father chose
It means good news something
that brings joy
I've been taught to stand on
my own two feet and fight
That's all I do, the circumstances,
life, traitors
I've principals I won't let people walk over
I'm not afraid of anything
I have to take what's mine and I will
I'm 26 but I feel 260
There's no balance
- He's a businessman
Should I bounce it?
No wait let me call
There's no balance
Should I bounce it or not?
Cash it?
It's empty, how?
I know Mr Samavati but
it's better if you call sir
Yes
Ok sure, bye
Hamed what's Bagheri saying?
He gave me a cheque to cash
There's no balance
He says to go over and make him pay
What's he like
I don't know what the money's for.
It's not my problem
He can do whatever he wants
What's this?
- Your cheque
I'm not blind. I can see that
You were supposed to cash it
I said to-
- Shut your hole
Who are you to say?
I tell you and you say yes
You'll go over cash this
and get back
How else would I pay your wage?
Hey! Take the cheque
How dare you come to work
when you're this clumsy
Watch it
- I'll talk to you the way you deserve, fool
Why are you dragging this out?
- What will you do?
I'm not angry
This isn't my job
Who are you then?
Look at me
Who are you then?
Pill popper, you think I don't know
you're high on pills?
Take this
I'm not angry
- What have your stupid parents taught you? Addict
I'm not angry
I'm not an angry person
I don't want to be
The doctor said to repeat this
so I stay out of trouble
But I can't. Sometimes it's necessary
Especially when you have
to stand up for yourself
But the doctor says I can control myself
I don't know why I couldn't just now
It's like the first day I saw my doctor
I'm confused, unsettled
I feel like I'm behind
I feel
I feel miserable
I want my life to go faster
I'm ageing but nothing is changing
What made you think to come here?
I noticed the sign I had a feeling to come
I don't know it just happened
I think you could help
When did it start to feel this way?
How long has it been?
A long time but I got worse
the past 3-4 years
I...
Don't hold back tell me everything
It might sound bad but sometimes
I want to hit someone over the head
I can't help it
There are images in my mind
And I see myself hitting someone
Have you actually done it?
Have you ever battered someone?
No it's more no
I don't mean it.
It's a reaction in the moment
Like I...
I hate car horns
The lights are red,
why do you beep your horn?
It's red
It has to go green for you to drive
Beeping your horn doesn't
change anything, fool
His wife is sitting there.
He beeps his horn so it goes green quicker
You have to batter him
Someone who doesn't understand
The horn isn't to annoy others
I've realised some people need to be battered
Enough beeping!
Wouldn't you do it?
Of course I had to hit the scumbag
I'm in a group with my friends
discussing politics
One of my friends
Defends a useless politician
The politician isn't
a relative of mine or his
I get annoyed
I get angry, when he chats shit
about someone he doesn't know
I want to strangle him, shut up
Shut up
Don't talk when you don't get it
Pull his tongue out so he goes mute
Press his head
Why do you look at me like that?
You think I'm crazy?
I shouldn't have said.
You think I'm crazy?
I feel sorry for myself for these people
You're not to determine
who deserves to be hit
You've citizenship rights
If they're being ignored,
hitting isn't the way to go
Whenever you feel yourself getting angry
Tell yourself you're not angry
I'm not angry
I'll give you pills to take
3 times a day to calm you down
I took the pills as of that day
They worked miracles and I felt better
It relaxes me and I forget my problems
I become someone else
Nice, kind
I see the world the way I want
But I lied to the doctor about something
It wasn't the sign
Vahid told me to go see him, he'll help
Vahid Tarantino is my housemate
We've been friends for 3 years
We live in our studio that's closed
and become our house
It's the pills
It reserves energy
Do you agree everyone is
on something these days?
Whoever says no is lying
Stop Reza
There's no perfect person
I don't understand why
you've let yourself go
Use something like us
Let yourself to be controlled
It's fun. Stop Reza
It relaxes you
Not totally gone though what is this life
Stop Reza
Stop Reza
I said to stop
Vahid and I have another
housemate too. Reza Bandar
He moved from Bandar to
Tehran to start a band with Vahid
Stop Reza
I said to stop
Everyone has a band these days
Like Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull
No one could listen to their other tracks
People who think
they're so good at picking
Don't realise this undermines humanity
The legends have been and gone
Beatles, Moody Blues and Rolling Stones
in the 60s
The progressive guys blew up the 70s
Who can replace Yelpie,
Genesis and Kim Crimson?
They want to modernise music they don't know
Planting a tree without roots
on the moon isn't so cool
Peter Gabriel might not
be good at changing tyres
But he makes good music
We were born at a time that
our good ideas sent us wandering
They're mostly minstrels people are happy
Nothing good will happen here
We're polluted
You have to keep playing cheesy to stay
Then feel like heroes
Then people say it's life
they have to make money
Shut your hole
Art has discipline
You have to know the roots then bend them
Otherwise we wouldn't be the dossers
They all have to respect me one day
They think just because they're celebrities
Their piss smells of Dior and our's stinks
I'd never want to become that
But I didn't sell myself out
I'm still the best
Still pure
Who'd believe I'm 27?
Who's responsible for the 8 years I lost?
I couldn't work for 8 years
8 years
God help us
Song: A woman can't be your homeland
Love songs are filthy
The Kurdish poets among the mountains
Mostly reach the same conclusion
Loneliness is here the way it is
Even darker and more bold
I'm here as usual
This is Ahmad he's a coward
He wasn't always this way
he became one
After his brother's story
He changed and became a different Ahmad
He's still loyal
It's your fault
Who'd hit his boss?
How could I ask for your money?
Aren't you friends with his accountant?
I asked for a favour
- You could've hit him at the end of the month
They've people everywhere
You know what happens if he turns you in?
- What have I done?
Do you understand what you're doing?
Your studies and now this
I don't get why you feel sorry for people
Which one of the ones you were expelled for
Asked if you're dead or alive?
Where are you?
Where are you going?
- I came here to feel better
I hate your attitude
I wasn't the top student at uni
but my grades were always good
It didn't go as planned
My heart is still at uni
That's Setareh
The Setareh uni gave me
As Dr. Shariati said
Ali was the man who
was a leader in Africa
But he had no political prisons
Even one political prisoner
Excuse me sir!
You've been quoting other people so far
Why don't you say what you think?
This is the trend now.
Quoting big people to look big
Why are we losing the confidence
to express our own opinions?
You're reading off the books
We could've done that at home
You just took the class time
Have I?
Who other than Shariati?
Can anyone ignore Shariati?
Is that what I said?
Why do you put words in my mouth?
- Do you have a problem with Shariati?
I don't and I'm not disagreeing with you
don't change my word
You get what I'm saying
We were supposed to discuss the idea
To tell us what you think
Not to quote others
Tell us your opinion too
so we can discuss it
Isn't that using others' points
to get to where you want?
That's all
Sorry
The university's top student vandalising
the lecturer's car
Look he claims to be educated
He binned the bottle too
How would he clean it?
How many books have
you read by Shariati?
Which one is the real you?
How much?
- What?
The price for selling people out
This? It's not for sale it's a memento
What?
- A memento
What's your problem with me?
I don't, I deleted it
Let's see
But don't make statements
in class then vandalise cars
Ok let's see if you've deleted it
Let's see
Vandalisation is better
than filming people in secret
Bye
Hey
That's my number, save it.
Text me before 12
Look
Cute. Let it eat
Put him down, Navid
Do you want to study at uni?
So what's the end?
Nothing
We'll die and end there
Some people never end
Does Mosadegh ever end?
Why do I get tears in my eyes when
I think of Dr. Mosadegh and Dr. Fatemi?
As long as there's history there's Mosadegh
Or Ghandi
This man doesn't end
What about us?
What about us?
- Will we end too?
For each other
Will our love end too?
Where were you?
- Here with you
Where's your mind wandering?
With you
Are you feeling down?
- No
Are you feeling low?
- No
Are you ok?
No. Everything is a no today
Thanks I'm good too.
Exam went well
You're always good I'm the bad one
You're the best
Let's get candles
Let's go to a cafe first
- Let's get candles I feel down
I love you, how could I say no?
You can't
I'm not so ok Navid
- Like me. What is it?
Don't make a scene or
think bad things
Stop
Promise?
- Promise
Dad says things
He says it's not serious with us or
we'd have figured a way by now
He says I'm not at an age for
relationships I'm one year older
I don't like it when
he asks what the plan is
What's the plan?
Your dad aside. What do you want?
It's obvious what I want
He's worried, ok?
It'd be different if my mum was alive
It's obvious for us
- For us not him
What should I say?
Say you want me
You want me
I want you
Say you love me
- I love you
Say you're in love with me
- I'm in love with you
Say you're crazy about me
- I'm crazy about you
Say you'd die for me
- I'd die for you
Shout
- Don't shout
Bye
- Don't go
Stop. My dad is home
I have to speak to her dad
What would I say?
I've no money?
What's my job?
If he asks where I work
Where I'm going to take her
How much money I have
What's happening to me?
I'm scared
But the best answer is this
Now I feel everything will be ok
It'll work out
It might take time but it'll happen
Things always work themselves out
He lives in the same country
I'll talk to him
What am I scared of?
I have to keep calm and control myself
How's Navid?
Good
- Will you come for dinner?
Is Vahid ok?
Yes he's sat here we're playing
He has lost it
He's been singing nonstop all day
I'm tired
I was about to hit the addict
We still have
4 months left to stay here
We'll all end up homeless
Shut it this house has character
it's like murder
You're chatting shit
I said to report it to the council you didn't
I don't own the house
they can evict me if they want
Did Reza tell you?
We're organising a concert
You can't get a permit
We can
- You can't
Not your band
- I'll get it
You can't
I'll get it
Stop! I have to
I don't want to be quiet anymore
I kept quiet for 8 years
They made money for 8 years
I kept quiet for 8 years
now things are different
I want to organise a concert,
I'll get the permit
Got it?
I'll meet with Setareh's dad
What would he say if I speak to him?
I shouldn't be so negative
Setareh's dad works here
Mr Javadi is a good man
What are you doing here?
Setareh said-
- How dare you both! Get out
Watch it
- Get out
What's wrong?
- I'll call the police
Mr Javadi
- Hands off
I have to control myself and not lose it
I'm not angry
What? I'm fine
I shouldn't lose it
- It's all wood with foam
It's from Turkey
- Hello
Wow it's Navid what brings you here
Wait for me I'll come see you
- Are they really made in Turkey?
It's all made in China including myself
There's a 5 year warranty
Navid not there
The next
But it's an original
You'll feel confident for 5 years
Hi Navid. Sit
How's everything?
- Good not bad
Have you been to Kurdistan
to see your mum?
I haven't had time
What about mum?
Will she visit?
She's ill so she can't
Aw
I'd go to Kurdistan if I was you
You're all glued to this town
I was telling Setareh last night
I said I wish we'd move too
To take a breather
Hello
- Hi haji
He's filthy rich
Good thing you came Navid
I want a word with you
- Sure
You're like my own Navid
- Thanks
You know Setareh's happiness
is everything to me
4 years ago. Your friend
She went through a lot
I'm worried for her
With the sanctions and expenses
Yes you're right
What's your plan?
We want to think of something
Careful
It won't make it downstairs like that
I've a favour to ask
Since I know you love Setareh
Make her happy
You love Setareh, right?
- Yes
If you do let her be happy
You love Setareh, right?
So let her go
Hi
- Hello
Sorry I don't understand
I'm a scumbag? I know
But I've this one child
I've raised her alone for 15 years
I'm over 50 Navid.
What do I have?
How much do you think I made after 23 years?
I've rented my house
Thank god I make enough
But I won't make it if
I don't work everyday
You want to start from zero?
With these prices?
How much do you think this furniture is?
How long will you work to buy it?
4 Years are a lifetime
I know you want to take
her to your place
Work day and night
Because you love each other?
- Setareh and I are engaged
We'll end it
So many people go through divorce
this is just an engagement
Excuse me! Mr Javadi
Coming
What if they scratch it?
You think I'd just let them go?
I'll escort them to the lorry
Let's go
Your marriage with Setareh is a mistake
I didn't object because of Setareh
The keep closing off the roads
I'm worried for you too
Why should you ruin your life for Setareh?
Don't you want to enjoy your life?
You'll be tired of this life in 2 years
Do you have a car? A house? A villa?
Inheritance?
Move
My dad married with a tenner
You can't marry with 20 million now
Why should you ruin your life for Setareh?
I told my mother I wanted to marry
3 Months later there I was
I'm worried for you
Let me marry her off to someone rich
I'll find you a job myself
You have to marry a rich girl too
Marriage isn't the same
One side has to be loaded
I'll find you the right person
Please Navid
Forget about her
Let me show you something
You didn't slow down at the humps
will you answer if they?re damaged?
Sorry
Come here Navid
What's this?
Tower
- How much is it?
I don't know
- Can you afford an apartment here?
Can you even rent here?
How old are you Navid?
Shahram. That's a successful man
You brought me here to patronise me?
- No so you'd open your eyes
What does he have that you don't?
A little stealing, a few connections
- No
Rich people are thieves,
poor people are lonely
His dad could be rich, it's his inheritance
His dad paid for him to build it
- His dad is a simple worker
He bought all his furniture from me
I know everything about him
How then?
What's it to us? We don't care
Let me make her happy Navid
Please I beg you
Don't do this to Setareh
- Mr Javadi
I promised her mother not to marry
What's he saying?
Does Setareh know?
I helped her education to be someone
What should I say?
I have to prove
I have to prove I can do it
Let her go, ok?
Give me some time
How many years?
Tell me how much you make
and I'll tell you
What are you afraid of?
You won't get far like this
Do you understand what you're saying?
What else should I have done?
Save you still can't rent a single room
Just a month
To come back with a house, a car and a villa?
Or to deal with it?
2 months, 2 years even
I know nothing will change
Just a month, then it's whatever you say
You either get lost or
Shut it
I'll kill you Shut it
Don't chat shit
I'm not angry
So make a promise
Don't mess with her head
What am I supposed to do?
Deal with it and get back to Kurdistan?
Or to tell Setareh everything?
Or fight her dad?
But I have to prove I can
To him, to myself, to Setareh
Setareh is mine
I've lost everything I wont lose her
But I have to teach Shahram a lesson first
How did he get all this money?
What's it to me?
Yes
I want to see Shahram the owner
He just left in his Porsche.
You didn't see him?
Does he really own the whole place?
Are you from the tax company?
No I want an apartment to buy
You have to go to sales not Shahram
When is he in?
- Usually in the afternoon
Is he married?
He's not crazy
No he's single
Thanks
This is shit talk
Bagheri swore so I hit him
So what? Shouldn't he pay me?
Hamed I need my money
I swear get it for me
Ok let's see
I'll make it up to you, bye
Why are you here?
He lost it and kicked me out
He says I'm cheap musician
Am I?
- Calm down
Have you ever heard me
play something cheap?
Who the hell is he?
He just talks, Navid
He thinks he's Freddie Mercury
and I'm Javad Yassari
I work, I compose and he shows off
I'm tired Navid
I came to Tehran for the stage
I swear I have to play at weddings
Ok let's go
- No
I'd rather be homeless
Come to my room
- No get my guitar I want to go
Vahid
What is it? What happened?
I lost Reza
He plays at weddings
So?
Our Reza at weddings
And he wants me in his band
See how miserable we are?
- I'd rather go to hell
I want to play, what's it to you?
The torturer says the same,
he carries orders
You've a commitment
At least I play at weddings you just sulk
Stop
- You played cheap
Who are you to define art?
- Miserable soul
I know what your problem is
Why are you taking it out on me?
Shut it
- Does that solve the problem?
Let's see
- Stop just go
Stop
What was that?
What are you doing?
Are you blind? We're demolishing the building
We still have a contract
We'll demolish your floor in 4 months
Everyone demolishes from the top
Get to your cheap music
Stay out of it
Do you have the balls?
Sure I'll show you
Who are you talking to?
What's it to you?
We've a contract
Get him Reza
Yeah I spoke to your dad
I'll tell you when I see you
Nothing is wrong
We'll talk
Bye
Idiot
Got it? Bye
Your life has to be going somewhere
For a woman to come into your life
The day Samira left for Kamyar
Kamyar called me
He asked should I get a cab?
I said no
What can I do when
she doesn't want me?
If not now, a while later
That's what a musician girlfriend is like
I want someone to listen to all the songs
I've in my heart before I die
You pay for 1 month
Then
I'll call
Yousef Abad is expensive
Gisha is cheaper
I've Marzdaran and Sattarkhan
they're cheaper
How much do you want to pay?
Luxury place or just a house?
A small one-bedroom but in good condition
What price?
I don't have much so
it has to be affordable
Are you married or single?
- Married
For real?
Yes
- Sure I ask for the neighbours
I've a good one
Deljoo
I said good condition I can't live there
I wouldn't even send you there if
I knew how much you had
If that's rent, how much is it to buy?
500 do you have it? No
I can find places 2 million a month
3 million a month
500 is 40 years worth of wages with Bagheri
That's if I stayed and got paid in time
What kind of dad is he Setareh?
He's nothing like you
You don't even look similar
let alone your thoughts
What am I supposed to say?
Your dad told me to let you go?
Was he mean?
- No
You two just meet and talk
He always says Navid is smart
Go on you said hi then
He's worried for our future
He doesn't have a problem
Wow big news
Concentrate and tell me what he said
Should I tell you the truth?
What should I say?
There'll be a fight
I can't say
Who am I to know?
It's between you two
He said to get a move on
Are you happy?
He's being mean
I'm not that old
You are
- Shut up
I'm from out of town
- You were forced
They have it's been years
Let's sit down
Who's Shahram?
- What?
Shahram
- Who?
The one with the tower
Shahram with a tower?
I messed up, never mind
You randomly say Shahram with a tower?
He's a fresher at uni
Sure he got into my uni to flirt with me
He wouldn't dare
Navid, I'm not as great looking
to others as I'm to you
You're the most attractive girl in the world
I don't want to hear otherwise
I'll beat him up if I see him around
You're just riling yourself up
Was he on my Facebook?
Do I even check Facebook?
- Ok
Ok
Who's he?
Never mind it was random
- Please
It was random
Today it was Shahram then Bahram
He owns a tower?
- Yes
Is he rich?
- Yes
Is he good looking?
Wow
Idiot
- Get angry
"Shahram"
Setareh
God I don't want anything from you
I just want Setareh
No cars, villas, houses nothing
I want the basics so
I can be with Setareh
How's this fair?
Someone becomes me
Someone else is Shahram
You must've given us something
Something we don't know about
Are you sure mum?
Dad didn't have anything?
Paperwork nothing?
Shouldn't you have thought of the future?
I've nothing, what do I do now?
Others have everything,
what about me?
Why do you cry now?
I'm your son I'm talking to you
Why do you cry?
Why them?
I shouldn't have called
I have to get the money
I don't want to lose Setareh
It's your fault
You're like our Gholi in Bandar
They say to come dance
He says there are girls there I can't
But as soon as
they're gone there he is
1 day 2 days 3 days stop Navid
You either don't do anything
or finish what you started
It's over
I doubt you're sane
You've a spell
I have to take you to Hormoz
to see Safiyeh and Abbas
To go through the ritual
I'll see Hamid
I don't like him but he can help
He's my cousin
Dr. Hamid
A dealer now
I haven't seen him in ages
The only person who
made it from our family
You have an appointment?
- No
Can I ask what it's regarding?
I'm his cousin, Navid
Excuse me! Your cousin, Navid is here
We've no relationship with my uncle
Maybe I shouldn't have come here
I can go if he's not in
Maybe I shouldn't have come here
I can go if he's not in
He's in a meeting.
You hadn't arranged either
I'll arrange for the pool this week
So the grant is sorted?
No worries
- We'll talk it over
Bye
Hi
- Hello
The total
Hold on
Wait
- Sure
How much? Ok
Hamid has a doctorate in
the sanctions as he says
The sanctions worked out for him
What brings you here?
I had to. You're busy
How? Where?
Yes
Sign them off
How much?
I'll write the cheque
Ask then call me
What about the IPL?
Laser hair removal
Yes. Send 3 my way
Make it 4 bye
Are you in for a business?
I'd love to
There's a piece of land
I'm looking for a shareholder to help out
50 50 if you're in
Ok but I don't have much
- How much do you have?
I can work but I can't invest
I can't this way
I came here for work because Setareh
Setareh?
- My girlfriend
The girl Setareh?
- Yes
You're still together?
- I love her
Aren't you tired of each other?
- No
Careful she doesn't catfish you
Get to the point
I want money, can I borrow some?
How much?
I don't know but I'll give it back soon
It's Canada. They keep calling
Hi haji, what's the new brand?
Ok
Where's Hamid?
He left a long time ago
He did?
- It was urgent
There has to be someone who could help
This is family others are better
Hi Sasan
It's really bad Navid
Everyone is stealing
One size bigger
They just ask for money
It's not right
Remember Farid?
- Which Farid?
The one who opened a restaurant
He borrowed 1 million from
each person and ran off
That's not a job it's petty
Naser had it the worst
He got tickets and went
to Dubai and found him
He punched him broke his teeth
He was owed 2 million,
he ended up paying him
18 for 3 months, 30 for 6 months
No the proxy works for all websites
Yes send it to the card number, bye
Navid I'm a big fan
Same I missed you
How are you getting on?
- I want a different style
This is my life
I studied management
I manage the store now
Try this
At least I studied management
Doctors and engineers are
dealers these days
That's where the money is
No offence but you have to do the same
Or stick to some loaded woman
Why can't I marry one of them?
None of them shop here
I'd go for it
You know
I don't care if it's disconnected
It's the server not me
That's what VPNs are like
Sasan is a fraud
he chats shit about others
He borrowed 100 from Asghar
still hasn't paid back
When 100 was something not now
Why did you go there?
Would I come to you?
- You can see my life
But my concert is happening
- You got your permit or a place?
I'm not so cheap to play underground
I'd have done it by now
He won't settle for anything
less than Wembley
Dice your garlic
Why didn't you go to Mohsen?
Which Mohsen?
- The one at the back of the class he's tell on us
You're right
Where's he?
- They say he has a job
Do you have his number?
- No but I've his address
I started from car radios
What?
- Yes installing them onto cars
You have to start somewhere
I had no money to invest you knew
But I'm all in
I'm all about friendship
Come work here
How much do you want?
Thanks
- Are you in?
I need some in advance
Sure bro
How much is dollars now?
3800 from 800
Who's the winner?
You'll become independent
if you take my advice
You won't forget me
What's my job?
How much is it?
Is it fair for someone
to own this and you don't?
Don't you deserve a boot or
a tyre from this car?
What can I say? Yes
Good so take what's yours
I don't get it Mohsen
Importing these cars is hard,
the parts are harder
That's why we use what we have
Off the streets
Off the same cars
We'll sign a monthly contract
You'll get us what we need
So I have to steal?
Thanks! When did I say that?
How else then?
It's not stealing, they're all insured
The owner is more than happy to be paid
That's what insurance is for
So it's not stealing, see?
I just offered it to you
Modernise yourself
Why did he think of me that way?
It's my fault
This isn't my job
I have to get to my own job
I knew he'd say this
- Say what?
Criminal background check it's the law
Speak to him, I'm not a thief
It's the law Navid he
doesn't care if it's political
You've a file
A criminal record
Why do you say you were expelled?
They let you go
Do you know any other place?
It's the same everywhere
The pay will be so low anyway
Navid why don't you leave Iran?
Setareh you've no idea
how bad I'm doing
What am I supposed to do?
I've tried all my life and
I'm getting nowhere
I don't want to lose you
You mean everything to me
I wish I could tell you all of this
I've no one other than you
I'm under pressure
Navid
Yes
Who's Shahram?
Where did he come from?
No one is at uni with that name
You looked into it
Yeah it was a good case to miss
I said to tell me when you're annoyed
You're annoying me
You went and looked into it already
Stop the evil eye
I love it
You don't go to uni
you're better than everyone
I've a good teacher
Do you remember Haleh, Navid?
Who?
The pretty one my classmate
She fancied me
- She's married you idiot
She was single before
Her husband got a loan for 2 or 300
They're getting a house
How much?
- 2 or 300
Where?
- Some bank
I should say since he got it
I have to get the same?
They'll say sure
Of course they won't
27% interest?
Yes otherwise everyone would apply
2 guarantors
With governmental jobs and payroll
With the paperwork
I wouldn't apply if I owned a place
Is there another way?
A guy just asked for a loan
to buy a kidney for his child
I don't control it
Kidney?
Between 800 or 850
Let me know
Can I get a job here?
Are you looking for a house or a job?
Both
It's all commission based here
There's no stable pay,
can you handle it?
Yes
Do you have what it takes?
- Yes
Hi
- Hello
What's wrong?
Where are you going?
Stop
I don't like you walking ahead, stop
Hey
I don't like you walking ahead
People are looking it's bad
I'm talking to you
- Stop
I'm talking to you
What's wrong? Shouldn't I know
what I've done wrong?
That's me who doesn't know
- Has someone said something?
Were you at work, Navid?
Do you go to work?
- Yes
Were you at work, Navid?
- Yes I swear
Fine
I want to talk
- Shouldn't you have told me?
You lie to me everyday
When?
- You could lie about other things too
What lies?
- Did I batter Bagheri?
You're beating people up
and not telling me
He needed it
- Get to it then
I got a new job you won't let me talk
Go for good
I'm sorry
I said I'm sorry
Should we have samosas? Vegetarian
Do you really do viewings?
- Yes
You're an idiot
- Why?
I finished class early went to your work
They said you hit him
you were fired
You wouldn't tell me
I tell you everything
Then you didn't tell me about this
What would you do if it was me?
I'd squash and chop you up
No
- I'd hit you
Whatever don't lie to me
- Sure
Don't hide anything
- Sure
Don't say sure like that
- Sure
Yes
- Mr Talebi's contract is ready
What?
- Mr Talebi's contract is ready
Is it him or his son?
- Him
Guide them in
I'll write the contract if thats ok
In the name of god
Mr Talebi is a landlord
Ms Saadat is our client
I've found her houses myself
What's your husband's occupation?
She lives with her brother
Yes
- Where's her husband?
We separated
- What?
We live separately
I said no singles
She's not alone
she lives with her brother
Ms Sharifi
- Saadat
Ms Saadat is a trusted client
I don't care.
What would the neighbours say?
That's rude
- Excuse me!
Why did you arrange this?
You're wasting our time
I said
- You said no single people
She lives with her brother
- Is that so?
What?
- Excuse me! She doesn't mind the price
I care about my house
It's a house not a brothel
You think you can treat women like that?
Watch it
- Get lost Taliban
She said it's her brother not boyfriend
Your assistant doesn't get it you do
I said no
It's your mistake
He says no single,
yes he's a scumbag what's it to you?
He's the landlord he decides
You stood arguing with him?
They landlords are the most important
I didn't know
- We'll be broke this way
I've 120 assistants and dealers here
One bought a house
One couldn't be promoted
Deljoo an example
Then you keep complaining
Tell us if you're in or out
Morad
Why aren't you watching?
I love you
What?
I love you
I'm crazy about you
I'd die for you
Me too
Stop
Why?
I love the way you?re watching the movie
I'm in love you
Stop I can't concentrate
Navid
Don't go I'll die
I'm fine
What's all this Hamed?
You could've said you couldn't get
the money off Bagheri
I'm with Ahmad, where are you?
Why did you bring me here?
- 3000 billion toman was embezzled
Shut it
Minus the kids thats 60 million population
How much was taken from each citizen?
That's 50 thousand each
Forget it
Don't you want to help out your friend?
No why would I?
Bagheri isn't such a big deal
He's still angry
Don't go around there
he's looking for you
They came to me
The money is nothing to him
He'd give it to you if he meant to
You know how much he has?
One of the guys had noticed
You should be afraid of him
He can get one of his people
You're dead
Nader was looking for you
Nader?
Is Nader working for Bagheri?
No
But Nader isn't so decent
Careful
I don't care
I love how you battered Bagheri
Who the hell does he think he is?
I heard you've a bad temper Navid
We're looking for someone like you
We can work together
No
- Why?
Fake fights we'll take the bags
Stop I'm talking
I know you don't want to work with us
No
- Why?
There's so much I can't tell you Setareh
I don't know how
I can't talk
I'm so miserable
- I love you
Don't look at me that way
What is Navid?
Why do you talk to yourself?
You think I don't know? I hear it all
I had enough
I'm tired
I've been meaning to say but I can't
I'm so worried about life I'm not living
I'm forgetting what love is
Your dad wants me to be a thief I can't
I'm not a thief, a criminal, a dealer
I can't be. I'm clumsy
Who could ever get all those things?
I can't. I can't even afford
to go to a cafe
I can't. I'm clumsy
I'm tired.
I won't ever make it. I'm tired
Nothing is coming together Setareh
Your dad is right this isn't working
You can marry Shahram I can't make you happy
You think I don't know?
What if you told your dad
Navid
What is it?
Why don't you talk to me?
I'm restless, confused,
the pills don't work
I'm always stressed
A nervous feeling
As if something is about
to happen but it doesn't
Like an earthquake
I'm waiting for it to go off but it's not
You were supposed to come back
a week later why didn't you?
I didn't have the time.
I've discovered something new in myself
I don't like seeing people happy or laughing
It brings me down I can't help it
Do something
Are you heartbroken?
No but
I will do
- The future is made up of images in our heads
You have to think positive to see positive
Tell yourself you're happy
You have to fake it until you make it
What about the voice in my head?
I can't talk to people
I'm talking to myself
I think of what to say or not say
What to do
What to say
I'll give you something stronger,
but just one a day
Do you make enough money?
Not bad
Do you need an assistant?
We've let so many go here
We've a caretaker he loves to work at a clinic
Navid
Get up Setareh is here
Hi
Navid what?s my dad saying?
He said you agreed for us to end it
No
Can I take my guitar?
- Yeah
Who's lying? You or him?
We spoke I asked for a month's time
To buy a house and a car?
To compensate for 4 years in a month
You can't so we end it
You got a month to end it
You're a real man
That's your dad
What?
You didn't speak to him for 4 years
We haven't made progress
You love me a lot Navid
but what did you do?
What have you done?
Nothing
When you say it
My dad has guests on Thursday
He said I should be home
Do you understand that?
Who is it?
What?
- Who is he?
Does it matter?
- It does to me
What's his name?
Do you understand what's happening?
Do you understand what I'm saying?
So much for the things I did
What did you do?
He said you're a guest you said ok
I'm -
Whose side are you on?
Me or your dad?
What is it, Navid?
Why do you think
everyone is against you?
They've taken what's yours
I've no rights
Why are you so aggressive?
- How?
You think only you were expelled?
We wander around on the streets aimlessly
You're right
Your dad lied to marry you off
What did he have when he married?
What did he have?
What did I do?
What else should I have done?
What else could I do?
Did I want to be here?
Who's the aggressive one now?
You showed off at uni for being with me
Now I wait across the road
Why did I stay in Tehran?
Why?
You're still studying where I was expelled
Take a look at the variety of colours
Thank you so much
Navid
Take a look, come here
We spoke
- Come here
You gave me time
- Calm down
What is it?
- You've invited guests on Thursday
Calm down
- You're taking Setareh away
Lower your voice
You couldn't wait a month
Over my dead body
Do you understand who I am, Navid?
I'm Javadi Setareh's dad
Over my dead body
You?re angry right now
- I'm not angry
You are
- I'm not angry I'll kill you and burn the place down
I'll make a scene
Calm down
You can marry Setareh I don't mind
But I'm still telling you
You don't get it right now
What's love?
Is this Setareh's future?
If that's all you see,
I've nothing to say
Make a decision
Shahram?
Yes
- You don't look the part
Wow Navid
- Don't you want to pay me?
Where were you before?
Sit I'll get it for you
You're a fool
Seriously
Was I wrong to help you?
Would it be hard to hurt you?
Now we're even
I don't want to owe you kid
Setareh
- Yes
Should we forget it all and go?
Where to? It's our home, our country
Your dad is right
It'll be fine
What will?
We keep saying it will
It gets worse each day
What's that?
Pills I take to calm me down
They don't work anymore
Give one to me
We'll take it together
Bye
Setareh
Yes
I want to talk to your dad
Right now
God, what am I to do?
