Coma

0:02:16.739,0:02:20.009
(News on radio)

0:02:52.203,0:02:54.613
-Hello -Hello to you too

0:02:58.471,0:02:59.811
We don't have cheese?

0:03:00.370,0:03:01.810
I put butter and jam for you

0:03:02.368,0:03:05.078
I ask "We don't have cheese?" and you say "I put butter and jam for you"

0:03:05.083,0:03:06.623
well would you like me to go get you some?

0:03:06.973,0:03:07.813
no need!

0:03:08.542,0:03:12.542
(sarcastically) It might damage the cells of his multi million dollar brain

0:03:15.189,0:03:16.989
Cheese makes people dumb

0:03:26.583,0:03:27.723
Saleh!

0:03:29.083,0:03:31.383
Shut this thing off and let us enjoy our tea

0:03:37.552,0:03:38.722
I was listening to that

0:03:39.266,0:03:39.926
You?

0:03:41.392,0:03:44.022
But you already know about everything in advance

0:03:45.150,0:03:49.150
and for this poor guy, the days he listened to the radio are long gone

0:03:49.480,0:03:52.880
the Iraqis also used to listen to the radio, but that ended too

0:03:53.014,0:03:59.074
and now we are listening to the radio in the morning in the hopes that it will bring us some kind of good luck

0:04:01.017,0:04:02.637
seems America has changed you, no?

0:04:02.830,0:04:05.660
me? I am only your guest for a few days anyways

0:04:05.972,0:04:06.642
wait

0:04:06.946,0:04:11.316
Is your hope in that letter of invitation you received from that American university?

0:04:11.755,0:04:15.755
Or in the 1 or 2 thousand dollars your "dear" mom and uncle sent you to buy a ticket?

0:04:17.504,0:04:19.694
Sit back down!

0:04:21.859,0:04:24.069
Let these last few days pass with peace and joy

0:04:24.139,0:04:26.049
Will you sit or should I get up?

0:04:48.469,0:04:49.839
I'm awake. Thanks

0:04:49.988,0:04:51.048
Hello to you too

0:04:51.155,0:04:53.395
(sarcastically) I see you are full of joy this morning

0:04:54.057,0:04:55.377
I'm good. How are you?

0:04:56.088,0:04:57.548
You can't talk right now, right?

0:04:57.668,0:04:58.578
no

0:04:59.226,0:05:00.426
Is 9 o'clock good?

0:05:01.181,0:05:03.211
Yes, that's good. I'll come pick you up

0:05:03.729,0:05:04.919
say I love you

0:05:05.555,0:05:07.785
Um...of course, of course

0:05:08.146,0:05:09.036
Goodbye

0:05:09.396,0:05:10.636
Goodbye

0:05:12.372,0:05:14.352
Why don't you let her go continue with her life?

0:05:14.619,0:05:17.959
Giving people's daughter pointless hope has consequences

0:05:23.828,0:05:24.958
Yes, it has been discussed.

0:05:25.172,0:05:26.902
Now we are waiting for the response

0:05:27.442,0:05:30.282
Honestly, I don't know. It's not up to just me alone. There are other brothers as well

0:05:30.636,0:05:33.446
Their opinions are important as well

0:05:36.237,0:05:37.537
Hold on a moment please

0:05:40.423,0:05:44.423
Hello...yes...thank you

0:05:44.971,0:05:46.591
thank you...yes

0:05:50.263,0:05:55.443
yes, of course. It's solved. I've already taken care of it...yes, don't worry

0:05:58.083,0:05:59.033
When should I pick you up?

0:05:59.268,0:06:00.918
I don't think it will take longer than an hour

0:06:01.659,0:06:03.979
As soon as it gets stamped, it's done.

0:06:05.428,0:06:07.038
It's the next intersection, don't miss it

0:06:07.313,0:06:11.333
Let's see if this time our request finally accepted or if they find another excuse

0:06:12.466,0:06:14.436
Did you get the stuff your mom said?

0:06:14.481,0:06:18.481
First I'll get the tickets, then I will get that

0:06:23.394,0:06:25.124
What was that!?!

0:06:32.230,0:06:35.060
For god's sake, look at their roads

0:06:41.672,0:06:43.602
Look there

0:06:57.893,0:06:58.943
If you want, I'll come with you

0:06:59.315,0:07:00.235
No, don't worry

0:07:00.571,0:07:03.171
Call me when you're done so I can pick you up

0:07:11.097,0:07:13.797
Amir, for god's sake don't say anything

0:07:20.082,0:07:22.962
What's wrong brother? Is it the usual questions?

0:07:23.083,0:07:25.493
You want to know how this young lady is related to me, correct?

0:07:25.540,0:07:27.250
I only serve for my people

0:07:27.650,0:07:28.630
Really? I see...

0:07:28.832,0:07:30.812
so you want to serve the people

0:07:31.295,0:07:31.995
Amir!

0:07:34.006,0:07:38.006
Look, my brother...50 meters over, there is a huge hole in the middle of the street

0:07:38.844,0:07:42.844
If a motorcyclist, like yourself, falls into it, he will be killed

0:07:42.996,0:07:45.096
now if you want to serve, get somebody to fix it

0:07:45.461,0:07:48.311
a few meters over there, there are also a few young guys killing each other in a fight

0:07:48.457,0:07:51.647
If you hurry now, you might be able to save one of them

0:07:51.742,0:07:55.742
Now do you really want to serve or stand here and waste my time and your time?

0:07:56.101,0:07:57.371
Amir, please, stop

0:07:58.223,0:08:02.223
You go do your work, I'll pick you up in an hour. Go ahead

0:08:12.352,0:08:12.992
Hello?

0:08:13.363,0:08:13.923
Hello?

0:08:14.185,0:08:15.755
Hi mom, how are you?

0:08:16.331,0:08:17.531
Are you a lion or fox? (an old saying)

0:08:17.596,0:08:18.356
I'm a lion...(keeps talking)

0:08:18.379,0:08:19.759
Can I see your registration?

0:08:19.820,0:08:20.610
Really mom?

0:08:20.759,0:08:22.219
Your letter from the university just came right now.

0:08:22.717,0:08:26.717
They said they will cover all your expenses, plus another $1500 a month

0:08:27.189,0:08:30.449
Also, from the beginning you can begin working too

0:08:31.001,0:08:32.691
Wow, sounds great! Thank you to them

0:08:33.130,0:08:36.080
Did you translate your documents to get the approval?

0:08:36.116,0:08:40.116
Yes, as usual, they came up with another excuse and said to get it stamped first

0:08:40.237,0:08:41.277
Hello?

0:08:55.415,0:08:57.185
-Hello? -Yes mom

0:08:57.252,0:09:00.952
-What happened? Why did it get disconnected? -I don't know. Their cellphones are like all their other things in this country

0:09:01.096,0:09:05.686
-For god's sake, be careful so that these last few days pass with happiness -mom, don't worry so much. I get it...

0:09:06.735,0:09:10.735
-What time is your flight? -Okay, I'll call and tell you the flight time -Hello? Hello?

0:09:10.796,0:09:15.056
How is Arezoo? Hello?...hello?

0:09:46.513,0:09:47.803
Come on...move!

0:09:48.076,0:09:49.476
What's your problem?

0:09:49.593,0:09:51.793
In case you're not aware, you're in the middle of the street

0:09:52.574,0:09:53.844
What's wrong with you?

0:09:54.408,0:09:56.598
What do you mean "What's wrong with you?"...you've blocked the street

0:09:56.792,0:09:59.002
You know what? In that case, my car broke down

0:10:59.227,0:11:00.637
Go! go!

0:11:07.677,0:11:09.917
Hello? Amir? Is everything alright?

0:11:10.505,0:11:16.035
Yes...everything's alright...everything's alright

0:11:26.163,0:11:35.873
(guy in background) No, I swear on your life. My teeth hurt so I put a gauze with alcohol on it, and now they say I drank alcohol...yes, yes...come soon and get me

0:11:36.324,0:11:40.244
(guy in background) Yes, on your way also get me some lime juice

0:11:43.053,0:11:45.553
Did you write it?

0:11:47.692,0:11:54.542
Amir Moradian, son of Reza, year of birth 1978...

0:11:56.852,0:12:00.472
Do you have anyone to come bail you out in the meantime?

0:12:00.994,0:12:03.244
What happened to the old man?

0:12:03.997,0:12:06.767
Pray that he'll stay alive

0:12:15.564,0:12:20.424
-Excuse me where is Officer Negaban's room? -Over there -thanks

0:12:23.819,0:12:25.329
Amir

0:12:26.019,0:12:27.059
You brought it?

0:12:27.079,0:12:29.744
Whoever I called, I couldn't

0:12:32.010,0:12:34.900
I had no choice other than to call your dad

0:12:36.334,0:12:39.784
What are you doing here!?! Go wait outside!

0:12:40.744,0:12:42.044
I will wait until Amir comes

0:12:42.073,0:12:49.623
Seems you don't understand. You being here itself is a crime. if they ask, how will you say you are related to him? Go ahead

0:13:01.153,0:13:05.153
(an officer being paged at the police department)

0:13:12.558,0:13:16.958
-What happened? -The guy is in the I.C.U, he went into a coma

0:13:17.105,0:13:19.885
Until his family gives an official forgiving consent, Amir is caught up in this mess

0:13:19.997,0:13:22.267
You go ahead and do your work, so you don't have to be stuck here with him

0:13:22.387,0:13:24.917
But sir, we've done all our work so we could go together

0:13:24.927,0:13:28.397
You talk as if I am the one who hit the guy with a car

0:13:28.516,0:13:34.296
Listen, I won't let this take too long. I will take care of all of this and ensure Amir comes after you

0:13:35.627,0:13:37.637
I will wait so we can go together

0:13:37.649,0:13:46.299
Why don't you understand ma'am? We are talking about an official consent and these sort of things...If the guy dies, Amir is a murderer. And if he is even lucky that the guy dies

0:13:46.352,0:13:52.172
Otherwise, we all have to serve the guy's family in the hopes that when he dies, we will get the consent

0:14:07.190,0:14:10.450
-You go home, I'll call you after -I won't go anywhere without you

0:14:10.509,0:14:16.119
Sara...here, it is in the parking by the police department

0:14:17.407,0:14:20.337
-What about you? -Me?

0:14:20.640,0:14:25.710
For now, in this mess, instead of worrying about me, my dad is worried about the broken glass of his precious car

0:15:00.110,0:15:04.110
-Excuse me ma'am -yes? -where can I see the doctor of the old man who was hit by a car today?

0:15:04.297,0:15:06.857
The room on the right, upstairs

0:15:08.057,0:15:10.767
You don't come, wait here

0:15:15.327,0:15:18.397
(someone being paged at the hospital)

0:15:24.197,0:15:25.277
I.C.U

0:16:03.739,0:16:06.649
You have a patient here?

0:16:08.221,0:16:09.591
my dad

0:16:11.045,0:16:13.125
What happened to him?

0:16:15.439,0:16:17.229
They hit him with a car

0:16:18.698,0:16:19.608
When?

0:16:20.969,0:16:22.599
You're being insistent

0:16:23.985,0:16:26.155
This morning, in the middle of a public street

0:16:28.728,0:16:29.978
If I find this guy...

0:16:33.202,0:16:34.042
Who?

0:16:34.221,0:16:38.221
That rich brat who ran over my dad

0:16:44.060,0:16:51.320
but if you find out that the other guy did everything in his power to save your dad

0:16:52.266,0:16:54.806
It still doesn't make a difference?

0:16:54.846,0:16:58.846
It makes no difference

0:17:01.226,0:17:08.566
but I'm sure that right now he is just as upset as you

0:17:14.762,0:17:16.692
Excuse me

0:17:25.296,0:17:27.256
Mr. Prince...

0:17:29.063,0:17:33.713
how do you know the other guy did everything in his power?

0:17:37.080,0:17:38.880
Believe me when I say I didn't see him

0:17:38.890,0:17:39.550
rich brat!

0:18:01.956,0:18:05.956
Leave him alone you psycho!!!!

0:18:10.606,0:18:11.506
Amir!

0:18:11.818,0:18:13.548
Who was that?

0:20:05.560,0:20:07.090
Call me at 9 at this number 7308341 -Hassan

0:20:38.462,0:20:39.392
9 o'clock

0:21:48.196,0:21:50.346
Hello, may the work be easy

0:21:50.613,0:21:51.683
Hello to you

0:21:52.141,0:21:54.541
Can I speak a few minutes to Mr. Moradian?

0:21:54.821,0:21:56.521
He has a guest right now, you are?

0:21:56.692,0:21:58.892
I'm his daughter-in-law

0:22:12.724,0:22:13.544
(a religious book about a mullah)

0:22:33.106,0:22:37.596
I gave my word that once this is all taken care of, I will send him to come

0:22:38.588,0:22:39.958
For what else are you here right now?

0:22:39.964,0:22:42.844
Are you sure this will all be taken care of?

0:22:44.815,0:22:48.485
What if the son doesn't give an official consent?

0:22:59.212,0:23:03.212
Is the guy even dead for the son to give a consent? The son is in no position right now

0:23:03.361,0:23:06.431
As long as the guy is alive and breathing, nobody else can do anything on his behalf

0:23:06.506,0:23:10.506
-but the guy himself can't make a decision. -It's the law

0:23:11.088,0:23:12.408
The law is right too...

0:23:12.718,0:23:18.238
Let's say the son gives a consent, and tomorrow his dad comes out of the coma and says, "Why the hell did you consent my death?"

0:23:19.377,0:23:20.627
What happens then?

0:23:24.998,0:23:28.338
I know, from the very beginning you were against Amir coming to America

0:23:28.518,0:23:31.388
This situation has nothing to do with what I want

0:23:31.404,0:23:36.664
Yes, it does. You have the power to do whatever you want.

0:23:36.854,0:23:41.734
My daughter, why don't you get it? Amir has been prohibited departure outside the country

0:23:53.094,0:23:55.674
You give me your word to take care of everything and send him?

0:23:55.695,0:23:59.645
I promise. I give you my word

0:24:00.016,0:24:02.526
Then I will take your word for it

0:24:03.276,0:24:07.586
Trust me, my daughter. In fact, trust me very much

0:24:14.526,0:24:18.806
This time of yours when you used to do everything you wanted has passed

0:24:49.386,0:24:59.646
Yesterday morning I told his father that it's best to do a surgery, but now that they are not in a good financial state for surgery, he has to be careful to not be so stressed

0:25:01.383,0:25:05.553
Stress for a patient that has heart problems is like poison

0:25:06.073,0:25:13.073
If when he was a child and had a throat ache, they had worried about him, his heart wouldn't be infected now

0:25:14.126,0:25:21.986
Unfortunately, many people don't know that being uneducated and not knowing enough can cause harm to their children

0:25:22.150,0:25:29.180
In the meantime, he should take his medication and vaccinations, and hopefully one day we can do surgery on his heart

0:25:30.080,0:25:32.940
So for now, we'll cancel it

0:25:38.070,0:25:39.020
Yes

0:25:39.250,0:25:40.900
How about Ms. Shahriar?

0:25:41.690,0:25:42.900
She is still going

0:25:43.720,0:25:45.970
When should I reserve for you?

0:25:46.467,0:25:48.057
I don't know

0:25:48.826,0:25:54.966
To be honest, I want to cancel my ticket. I need the money

0:26:32.779,0:26:33.839
Amir

0:26:34.702,0:26:37.322
What if you don't come?

0:26:37.583,0:26:38.563
Impossible

0:26:38.942,0:26:42.272
It might be later than we expected, but I will come for sure

0:26:43.855,0:26:49.155
What if your visa expires? Right now they are really picky in giving American visas to Iranians

0:26:54.997,0:26:56.577
What kind of law is this?

0:26:57.552,0:27:00.552
The guy has to die before his son gives consent?

0:27:00.697,0:27:02.817
If he even gives a consent

0:27:04.867,0:27:07.707
Hopefully the guy dies soon, no?

0:27:09.815,0:27:11.325
I don't know.

0:27:12.365,0:27:16.825
Today someone said one of their family members was in a coma for 3 years

0:27:22.806,0:27:23.926
Amir

0:27:24.806,0:27:26.746
What?

0:27:28.360,0:27:30.210
Do you love me?

0:27:30.373,0:27:31.583
Why do you ask?

0:27:32.409,0:27:34.509
I want to be sure that you'll come

0:27:34.890,0:27:36.110
Be sure of it

0:27:36.940,0:27:39.820
...because...umm

0:27:43.037,0:27:48.287
Okay then. I don't want a serious goodbye, because we are going to see each other very soon

0:27:56.877,0:28:00.027
Why did all this suddenly happen?

0:28:21.665,0:28:23.185
Mr. Karimi?

0:28:28.513,0:28:32.733
Get up sir. Get up I want to talk for a moment

0:28:37.304,0:28:41.724
I am Moradian. I am very sorry about this situation

0:28:43.141,0:28:48.481
However, it is something that has happened. You and I can't do anything about it

0:28:49.538,0:28:52.208
Your father was old anyways

0:28:52.758,0:28:54.948
Don't worry.

0:28:56.249,0:29:00.049
I am looking out for you

0:29:02.289,0:29:05.069
I will visit you again soon

0:29:09.822,0:29:10.822
sir

0:29:45.523,0:29:49.523
(Hassan has scratched Mr. Moradians car)

0:30:58.579,0:31:00.229
For god's sake be careful

0:31:00.689,0:31:01.709
You too

0:31:02.354,0:31:03.024
Goodbye

0:31:03.311,0:31:04.281
Goodbye

0:32:26.091,0:32:35.401
I was getting ready. I was supposed to leave the country, but unfortunately, suddenly this happened

0:32:36.721,0:32:40.181
I didn't come here to get an official consent from you.

0:32:40.897,0:32:47.287
I'll give whatever you want, I'll do whatever you want, just for god's sake forgive me.

0:32:48.466,0:32:54.516
Today your "dear" dad tried to bribe me. He thought I can be bought

0:32:54.978,0:32:59.098
so I made his car look really pretty

0:33:00.169,0:33:02.169
What's wrong? You're in pain?

0:33:02.213,0:33:05.023
No, this isn't real pain

0:33:05.563,0:33:07.083
Do you even know what pain is?

0:33:07.167,0:33:10.427
You haven't experienced my kind of pain yet

0:33:12.787,0:33:19.857
My situation is in some ways like yours. For me, my dad has been in a coma for years. His presence makes no difference for me.

0:34:09.652,0:34:10.972
Who is it?

0:34:15.143,0:34:17.683
Who are you? Take your hands off!

0:34:28.892,0:34:32.422
You are really a worthless person

0:34:33.948,0:34:36.728
Look! I got a nicer one

0:34:37.181,0:34:42.921
I wasn't trying to bribe you. I gave the money because I saw you are poor, otherwise I would have had you hanged!

0:34:42.942,0:34:51.162
I only came here to tell you I know people like you very well. I know what is in your mind, but get it out of your mind

0:34:56.374,0:34:59.414
If you're doing this for me, I don't need you to do anything for me!

0:34:59.496,0:35:01.356
He is not well

0:35:09.060,0:35:12.610
You want a consent, huh? Keep dreaming!

0:35:12.724,0:35:17.584
At the hospital I wanted to help him! If it was you, would you expect such a response?

0:35:17.721,0:35:22.071
You don't even want to know what I would do if I was in his place...

0:35:43.685,0:35:45.065
Do you want to see a doctor?

0:35:45.065,0:35:45.795
Leave it!

0:35:46.489,0:35:51.169
Suddenly you think we are like cousins? Just leave!

0:36:05.269,0:36:06.739
Saleh?

0:36:09.279,0:36:10.069
SALEH!

0:36:10.152,0:36:11.452
Yes sir?

0:36:11.452,0:36:13.932
Where were you? Why is the telephone disconnected?

0:36:13.932,0:36:17.932
Unfortunately the telephones in the whole neighbourhood are disconnected right now

0:36:18.243,0:36:24.613
What's up with this? One day it's the power, one day it's the water, and now the telephone

0:36:25.064,0:36:29.274
(sarcastically) It's "the nation of rose and nightingale"...

0:36:33.564,0:36:36.334
Why am I even saying all this to you?

0:36:36.859,0:36:41.479
Those who should listen, refuse to hear the truth

0:36:49.063,0:36:51.273
Where is his majesty going?

0:36:51.760,0:36:54.040
To Mr. Astollah's house

0:36:54.070,0:36:55.890
Really?

0:36:56.777,0:37:00.777
He is going to have a meeting on how to solve the nations problems, I know

0:37:35.525,0:37:36.255
Yes?

0:37:36.335,0:37:44.225
If you still had a chance for me to use my influence and connections to solve your problem for you, you destroyed that chance tonight

0:37:44.940,0:37:50.460
Tell the girl to move on with her life over there

0:37:50.620,0:37:54.050
You are our guest here for a long time

0:37:54.050,0:37:57.320
but you gave Sara your word!

0:38:02.475,0:38:11.735
These days who cares about promises? The world has changed! Forget about your trip Mr. Amir!..

0:38:36.694,0:38:38.734
Okay! I'm coming!

0:38:44.974,0:38:48.104
Wow! How rude you are

0:38:48.514,0:38:52.024
Do you want to crash the party of some of the rich, powerful, religious men of the country tonight?...

0:38:52.181,0:38:54.121
What is that?

0:38:54.601,0:38:58.291
I'm never returning to that home

0:39:28.701,0:39:32.841
Do you want to start with this one? It looks like your dad's car

0:39:33.086,0:39:34.586
We will definitely start with this one

0:39:34.616,0:39:36.246
Are you serious!?!

0:39:37.866,0:39:39.946
You're awesome!

0:39:51.936,0:39:57.976
Quick! Quick! Take out the screwdriver. Two screws up, two screws down, unscrew them.

0:39:58.535,0:40:00.095
Quick! Quick!

0:40:00.466,0:40:03.276
-unscrew the ones on the bottom -It's done

0:40:03.291,0:40:09.211
Pull the stereo out, pull it out!...Here, this one's for your dad.

0:40:09.359,0:40:10.619
Let's go

0:40:23.649,0:40:25.289
-Quick! -I'm on it

0:40:58.275,0:41:01.735
You don't know how much I enjoy it when I see these people freaking out

0:41:01.778,0:41:05.978
The are so rich, but you take their stereo and they want to kill themselves...spill it here

0:41:06.037,0:41:11.357
-Spill it all out... -When we listen to their music, we will see how they are in their free time Hassan...

0:41:11.377,0:41:13.227
Amir!!!!

0:45:57.676,0:45:58.866
Hassan?

0:45:58.946,0:45:59.536
huh?

0:45:59.546,0:46:01.976
-Are you awake? -Yes

0:46:01.976,0:46:04.496
What time is it?

0:46:08.440,0:46:11.520
Exactly 10 minutes to 11

0:46:11.542,0:46:18.962
10 minutes to 11...it means it is 10:20 in the morning in America right now

0:46:19.171,0:46:22.971
Nice...your brain is a computer

0:46:24.876,0:46:27.566
-Hassan? -huh?

0:46:27.566,0:46:29.496
Look at that star

0:46:29.516,0:46:30.526
Let me sleep

0:46:30.556,0:46:33.036
Please, look for me

0:46:33.066,0:46:33.786
Which?

0:46:33.896,0:46:36.266
That one...the one that is sparkling

0:46:36.295,0:46:40.295
-yes -that's our star. Mine and my finacee, Sara's

0:46:40.426,0:46:42.486
Very nice, nice

0:46:44.303,0:46:47.103
I miss her so much...

0:46:48.073,0:46:52.073
Is it possible that all this will be over soon, so I can go be with her again?

0:46:52.983,0:46:54.653
Will your dad let you go?

0:46:57.923,0:47:01.203
He's against me going, because he doesn't have anybody other than me

0:47:01.213,0:47:07.593
He know that if I go, I will marry Sara, so he tries his best to prevent me from going, because it's not good for him if I marry her.

0:47:07.603,0:47:14.193
During the Shah's regime, Sara's dad worked in the palace for the Shah. After the revolution, he fled from Iran

0:47:14.264,0:47:18.724
Sara and I met when she came to Iran for the first to get back her father's property and money

0:47:18.997,0:47:20.687
Guess where

0:47:21.388,0:47:22.978
Probably the amusement park

0:47:22.983,0:47:26.263
The amusement park?...no

0:47:26.293,0:47:27.833
We met in the middle of the street when she was arguing with an officer

0:47:27.862,0:47:30.012
nice...wait, are you serious?

0:47:30.024,0:47:35.064
Yes, because I saw that she was the most innocent person being arrested in the street

0:47:35.070,0:47:41.550
and now that we want to marry, my dad won't let us. He says, "It's a sin for my son to marry this person's daughter"

0:47:48.470,0:47:50.760
Do you have any relatives there?

0:47:52.156,0:47:56.156
Yes, my mom and sister have been there for years

0:47:56.608,0:48:01.048
My mom had a problem with my father's job. My dad's entire life was "to fix the country"

0:48:01.222,0:48:06.872
My mom used to tell him "You don't need to fix the country, you should fix your own life first"

0:48:07.310,0:48:13.340
They argued everyday, until one day my dad got up and saw that my mom and sister had left

0:48:13.353,0:48:19.613
My uncle has been there for years, so he was able to take them there and support them

0:48:20.468,0:48:25.858
My mom says, "When I was in Iran and saw your dad, that's when I realized the reason why the country's problems can't get fixed"

0:48:26.018,0:48:31.198
Now that they are there, they sent me a few invitation letters to see maybe I can go too

0:48:31.248,0:48:33.788
Really? Why do they want you so bad over there?

0:48:33.817,0:48:36.017
I don't know. They say I have the brains

0:48:36.049,0:48:39.319
Last year I got the gold metal in mathematics

0:48:39.504,0:48:44.954
I've also done an experiment and wherever I take it here, they make fun of me

0:48:45.026,0:48:48.796
but when I sent it there, they accepted me in a heartbeat

0:48:48.797,0:48:49.497
nice

0:48:49.801,0:48:58.211
I don't even have a single star in 7 skies. As soon as I opened my eyes, my parents were both poor workers

0:48:58.525,0:49:04.775
When my mom died, I went to Japan for two years. I worked there. Not really work, we burned dead bodies

0:49:04.838,0:49:09.318
They paid well there, but it wasn't what I wanted to do. For each body they paid 10 000 yen

0:49:10.246,0:49:15.836
but if while being burned, the body sparked, they gave us another 10 000 yen and said it went to heaven

0:49:16.212,0:49:22.122
The next day, I bought fireworks and put them in the bodies. They eventually found out and they deported me

0:49:22.681,0:49:36.791
I always longed for two things in life: one, a cool, loyal friend which I never had. The second one a nice, red car to take up hill and go skiing

0:49:37.410,0:49:40.010
You really had no one in your life?

0:49:40.100,0:49:49.390
No, not really, but there was a lady in Japan who paid us, but I forgot about her and came back to Iran

0:49:49.535,0:49:57.955
now here there is a girl. I really like her. Everyday I stand outside her university and put flowers for her. A few days ago I put my phone number under her windshield

0:49:58.279,0:50:01.079
Before you hit my dad

0:50:02.273,0:50:05.833
I still haven't heard back from her

0:50:05.976,0:50:10.506
This is my fate brother Amir

0:50:12.495,0:50:16.495
It's probably the hospital

0:50:19.638,0:50:25.198
Hello...yes? Why don't you talk? Are you deaf?

0:50:25.375,0:50:28.405
You left your number on my windshield

0:50:29.136,0:50:31.466
Quick, come here, it's the girl

0:50:31.818,0:50:32.908
Yes, go ahead

0:50:33.771,0:50:35.401
Are you Mr. Hassan?

0:50:35.480,0:50:37.270
Yes, go ahead

0:50:37.389,0:50:39.299
Who was the guy who picked up the phone?

0:50:39.368,0:50:41.198
That was our worker

0:50:42.924,0:50:44.464
May I ask, you are?

0:50:44.482,0:50:45.712
You didn't recognize?

0:50:45.933,0:50:47.363
no, should I?

0:50:47.562,0:50:51.262
My name is Maryam. You left your phone number on my windshield

0:50:51.399,0:50:53.919
Yes, yes...How are you? Why so late?

0:50:54.075,0:50:58.885
I called a few more times, but no one picked up. May I ask what is the meaning of this?

0:50:58.902,0:51:00.272
The meaning of what?

0:51:00.318,0:51:05.238
That everyday you come in front of the university and put flowers under my windshield but you don't show yourself

0:51:05.524,0:51:12.704
well, putting flowers is not bad. I thought that if the scent is in your car, you will see that there is somebody who likes you very much

0:51:13.062,0:51:19.382
but the difference between me and other young guys is that my conscience wouldn't allow me to step on your dignity

0:51:19.589,0:51:28.039
anyways, it's possible for a young, timid guy to really like a beautiful and classy women like yourself, right?

0:51:28.039,0:51:32.469
It seems you are not as timid as you say. If you allow...

0:51:32.525,0:51:34.965
May I ask, what are you studying?

0:51:34.987,0:51:36.087
English

0:51:36.087,0:51:37.117
Fantastic

0:51:37.354,0:51:38.094
what?

0:51:38.733,0:51:40.183
What do you study?

0:51:40.196,0:51:42.176
I am studying medicine

0:51:42.433,0:51:43.313
Excellent

0:51:43.616,0:51:46.816
so, let's make a plan for the night after tomorrow night

0:51:47.948,0:51:50.268
Okay 7 in the evening then

0:51:50.988,0:51:53.998
Great! How about the coffee shop near the university?

0:51:54.018,0:51:55.758
sounds good. See you then

0:51:56.411,0:51:57.151
see you

0:51:59.049,0:52:00.669
Why did you set up the date at the I.C.U?

0:52:00.866,0:52:05.196
I.C.U?...not I.C.U! I said "See you"...See you means "I will see you"

0:52:05.224,0:52:07.354
You have a date the night after tomorrow

0:52:07.404,0:52:10.994
Let it go! I'm not like this. Medicine? Do I look like a doctor?

0:52:11.064,0:52:12.574
You have two days to become one

0:54:03.361,0:54:05.261
Ready?...1, 2...1,2..

0:54:05.284,0:54:06.894
Hello? Yes?

0:54:06.961,0:54:07.921
Can you hear me fine?

0:54:07.971,0:54:08.671
Yes, okay...

0:54:09.594,0:54:10.964
What happened? Why didn't she come?

0:54:11.007,0:54:12.867
She'll come, don't worry

0:54:13.023,0:54:13.923
What time is it?

0:54:13.923,0:54:15.853
I don't have a watch

0:54:33.495,0:54:34.585
Is that her?

0:54:34.672,0:54:36.172
God help me, it's her!

0:54:36.215,0:54:40.505
alright! don't panic! You look so good, all eyes are on you

0:54:40.525,0:54:41.305
You really mean it?

0:54:41.321,0:54:47.281
Don't look! Don't move so much! Just don't forget, whatever you like, if she asks you, tell her the opposite; say "I don't like it"

0:54:47.298,0:54:47.928
Why?

0:54:47.938,0:54:49.828
Don't you want to seem high class?

0:54:49.841,0:54:50.881
Right! Yes...

0:54:50.913,0:54:52.203
Wait, so you mean I'm this low class?

0:54:52.210,0:54:58.800
Sit straight!...She's walking towards you, bring the flower up, bring it up!

0:55:07.666,0:55:09.536
-Hello -Hello

0:55:10.502,0:55:12.332
-For you -Thank you very much

0:55:12.450,0:55:13.640
welcome

0:55:14.970,0:55:16.270
sorry about the delay

0:55:16.387,0:55:18.157
Don't even mention it sister

0:55:22.392,0:55:24.682
Why don't you take off your hat?

0:55:24.812,0:55:29.512
umm, it's we...I mean, it's wet. I took a shower

0:55:30.358,0:55:32.688
You doctors are so interesting

0:55:33.227,0:55:35.237
I'm flattered

0:55:55.346,0:55:57.496
cappuccino I said

0:55:57.496,0:55:59.386

0:55:59.386,0:56:01.016
Just go now

0:56:01.503,0:56:03.853
He keeps looking...

0:56:04.223,0:56:10.963
To be honest, I expected to see someone with huge reading glasses

0:56:11.393,0:56:13.783
I didn't expect for you to look like this

0:56:13.784,0:56:15.014
like what?

0:56:15.014,0:56:19.314
like this...really different from a typical medical school student

0:56:19.724,0:56:22.014
I didn't think you'd look like a movie actor

0:56:23.012,0:56:27.972
Thank you very much. I can tell you are into movies, cinema, and things like that

0:56:28.192,0:56:29.582
yes, very much. How about you?

0:56:29.582,0:56:34.652
Yes, I have a lot...ummm I mean, an interest in these kind of things

0:56:34.902,0:56:40.802
Especially fighting movies and karate. You know the ones with Jackie Jone, where they go...

0:56:40.802,0:56:43.892
shhh...that's enough

0:56:43.892,0:56:47.892
I mean...I actually don't like these kind of movies at all

0:56:47.902,0:56:49.822
I'm exactly the same

0:56:49.882,0:56:52.302
so doctor, tell me more about yourself

0:56:52.433,0:56:55.833
What should I say, sister?

0:56:55.936,0:56:59.146
I'm not really much of a talker

0:57:00.746,0:57:05.086
-I mean... -say, I like to write more. I worry that if I talk too much, I'll stop my writing

0:57:05.506,0:57:15.986
ummm...I like to write more. I mean, I take words to the pen. I worry if I talk too much, I'll stop my writing

0:57:16.046,0:57:19.266
so you're also a writer?

0:57:19.376,0:57:23.036
What an interesting person you are! Have published anything yet?

0:57:23.436,0:57:26.436
Currently I am still working on my last movel

0:57:26.506,0:57:29.906
Not movel, novel...

0:57:29.906,0:57:30.626
movel?...

0:57:30.626,0:57:35.766
novel...have you seen some people say movel instead of novel these days?

0:57:37.606,0:57:40.516
You are so funny, so what is it called?

0:57:40.516,0:57:41.566
what?

0:57:41.566,0:57:45.016
well, your novel

0:57:45.876,0:57:47.866
Just say a name already

0:57:47.906,0:57:49.726
you incompotent

0:57:50.726,0:57:52.406
You're the incompetent!...

0:57:52.406,0:57:54.756
Just say, "Incompetence"

0:57:54.836,0:57:56.986
It's "Incompetence"

0:57:56.996,0:57:58.156
pardon?

0:57:58.156,0:58:00.396
Yes, that's the title of my novel

0:58:01.736,0:58:07.016
What an interesting title. What is this novel of "Incompetence" about exactly?

0:58:07.196,0:58:10.706
Well, it's similar to the novels of the writer Sadegh Hemayat

0:58:10.773,0:58:11.773
Hemayat?

0:58:11.826,0:58:13.976
Hedayat, you idiot! Hedayat!

0:58:14.006,0:58:14.806
no

0:58:14.806,0:58:19.596
What can I say to you writers?...Now it's Hemayat...what's next?

0:58:23.679,0:58:28.609
Don't turn around but this guy has been staring at me since I arrived. Can't he see you're here?

0:58:28.739,0:58:30.779
Hello?

0:58:33.159,0:58:33.829
hello?

0:58:33.839,0:58:37.879
Anyways forget it, what term are you in now? How many terms have you finished?

0:58:38.640,0:58:40.110
hello?...

0:58:40.280,0:58:43.440
You said there was a guy staring at you; where is he sitting?

0:58:43.440,0:58:45.370
It's nothing. Just let it go

0:58:46.120,0:58:51.200
I won't harm him. I just want to talk to him. I want to see why he's staring. Does he not have a mother and sister himself?

0:58:54.583,0:58:57.103
That's him?

0:58:57.203,0:58:59.103
You stay here, I'll handle it

0:58:59.103,0:59:00.573
Hassan, for god's sake no

0:59:00.733,0:59:06.233
Why not? Us doctors, it's our job to help sick people

0:59:09.363,0:59:13.103
Pretty boy, get up

0:59:15.243,0:59:18.693
Let's see, why are you staring at someone else's girl? Don't you have a mother and sister?

0:59:18.703,0:59:21.573
tone it down a bit; don't make a scene

0:59:22.690,0:59:27.970
-I'm sure it's a misunderstanding. Let's talk about it outside -Let go! Get out

0:59:29.040,0:59:33.530
I'll be back before your coffee shop gets cold
