فيلم #وجدة | Wadjda 2012

  • 0:04 - 0:12
  • 0:14 - 0:24
  • 0:37 - 0:43
    I gave myself to God
    and I think he has a place for me
  • 0:43 - 0:46
    In the eternity of Heaven
  • 0:46 - 0:49
    With the martyrs and the pure,
    I will always be there
  • 0:49 - 0:54
    I raised my heart
    with the light of faith
  • 0:54 - 0:59
    And my patience, when I am lost,
    guides me to the right path again
  • 0:59 - 1:00
    Stop!
  • 1:00 - 1:03
    Stand in your places!
  • 1:09 - 1:11
    Let's try it again.
  • 1:11 - 1:16
    I gave myself to God
    and I think he has a place for me
  • 1:16 - 1:20
    In the eternity of Heaven
  • 1:20 - 1:22
    With the martyrs and the pure,
    I will always be there
  • 1:22 - 1:27
    I raised my heart
    with the light of faith...
  • 1:27 - 1:29
    Wadjda!
  • 1:31 - 1:32
    Come here.
  • 1:44 - 1:46
    Repeat the first two verses.
  • 2:01 - 2:06
    Don't you want us
    to hear your voice? Move! Move!
  • 2:09 - 2:10
    Again.
  • 2:10 - 2:15
    I gave myself to God
    and I think he has a place for me
  • 2:15 - 2:19
    In the eternity of Heaven
  • 2:19 - 2:21
    With the martyrs and the pure,
    I will always be there
  • 2:21 - 2:25
    I raised my heart
    with the light of faith
  • 2:25 - 2:32
    And my patience, when I am lost,
    guides me to the right path again...
  • 4:57 - 5:00
    Don't forget your keys.
    Don't lock the top lock.
  • 5:00 - 5:03
    Your father might be
    late from his shift. OK?
  • 5:03 - 5:05
    God willing.
  • 5:29 - 5:32
    Long way ahead.
    You every day late.
  • 5:32 - 5:37
    Must drive other teachers.
    Next time you late, I not wait.
  • 5:38 - 5:42
    - My mum no late, you just arrive.
    - Ignore him!
  • 5:42 - 5:46
    I not talk to you, child.
    I talk mama, she every day late.
  • 6:38 - 6:40
    Look!
  • 6:42 - 6:44
    Soon you'll be a pro!
  • 6:44 - 6:47
    Where have you been all week?
  • 6:53 - 6:55
    I've got something for you.
  • 6:56 - 7:00
    A volcanic stone from the Empty Quarter.
  • 7:00 - 7:02
    It's magnetic.
  • 7:11 - 7:12
    Dad!
  • 7:12 - 7:15
    Mum's been waiting all week for you.
  • 7:15 - 7:17
    The top lock is unlocked.
  • 7:53 - 7:56
    What a moustache!
    It'd suit an advert for shaving soap.
  • 7:56 - 7:59
    This is a real moustache.
    A falcon could sit on it.
  • 7:59 - 8:02
    I'd say an aeroplane!
  • 8:06 - 8:08
    Thanks for breakfast!
  • 8:26 - 8:28
    Got my sandwich back at last!
  • 9:03 - 9:06
    Did you really think
    you could catch up with me?
  • 9:17 - 9:20
    If I had a bike, you'd see.
  • 9:41 - 9:45
    Girls, stop.
    Why are you laughing out loud?
  • 9:45 - 9:49
    You forget that women's voices
    shouldn't be heard by men outside.
  • 9:51 - 9:55
    How often must I repeat this?
    A woman's voice is her nakedness.
  • 9:55 - 9:58
    - Hello.
    - We're sorry, it won't happen again.
  • 10:03 - 10:04
    Wadjda!
  • 10:05 - 10:08
    Where's your headscarf?
  • 10:08 - 10:11
    Did you come
    with your head uncovered?
  • 10:13 - 10:15
    Stop it, girls. Don't laugh.
  • 10:32 - 10:36
    Hey! Come up and play with us!
    Let me touch those little apples.
  • 10:47 - 10:50
    - Don't talk to me!
    - Just a second.
  • 11:08 - 11:10
    I've brought you something.
  • 11:13 - 11:16
    We're not even yet.
  • 11:16 - 11:20
    When I get my bike and I win the race,
    then we'll be even.
  • 11:20 - 11:23
    Don't you know
    that girls don't ride bikes?
  • 11:23 - 11:26
    Losing to a girl will be a double loss.
  • 11:30 - 11:32
    Move, boy. Play somewhere else.
  • 13:06 - 13:08
    800 riyals.
  • 13:08 - 13:10
    Too expensive for you.
  • 13:26 - 13:28
    I'll make you some lunch.
  • 13:45 - 13:49
    We were in a car without
    air conditioning for three hours.
  • 13:50 - 13:53
    That trip to the end of the world
    is killing me.
  • 13:57 - 14:00
    I don't like that look.
    What's on your mind?
  • 14:00 - 14:03
    I want to buy a bike
    so I can race Abdullah.
  • 14:04 - 14:06
    Have you ever seen a girl on a bike?
  • 14:06 - 14:10
    I'd rather sell fruit at the hospital
    than do my daily commute.
  • 14:10 - 14:13
    And I come home
    and you tell me, "I want a bike."
  • 14:57 - 14:59
    Where are the bracelets?
  • 14:59 - 15:02
    I only made ten.
    I worked my fingers to the bone.
  • 15:02 - 15:04
    Each one costs an extra two riyals.
  • 15:05 - 15:08
    I told you,
    I worked my fingers to the bone.
  • 15:12 - 15:14
    Here you go.
  • 15:24 - 15:26
    It's your turn.
  • 15:37 - 15:39
    Let's move, the men can see us.
  • 15:41 - 15:43
    Why? Are they supermen?
  • 15:43 - 15:47
    If you can see them, they can see you.
  • 15:47 - 15:49
    Respectable girls go inside.
  • 15:49 - 15:53
    The rest stay
    where the men can see them.
  • 16:34 - 16:36
    What are you doing here?
  • 16:36 - 16:39
    Go to your class.
    Can't you see the men on the roof?
  • 16:53 - 16:58
    Girls, did you hear?
    A thief got into Ms Hussa's house.
  • 16:58 - 17:00
    It was her lover, not a thief!
  • 17:00 - 17:03
    Her father thought it was a thief
    and called the police!
  • 17:04 - 17:07
    If she said it was a thief,
    then it was a thief.
  • 17:07 - 17:09
    You would say that, Salma.
  • 17:09 - 17:14
    The only man that would ever
    speak to you would have to be a thief.
  • 17:29 - 17:32
    Can you take this to my brother?
  • 17:34 - 17:37
    It's my permission to exit card.
  • 17:39 - 17:43
    - I'll give you ten riyals.
    - 20.
  • 17:44 - 17:46
    God, you...
  • 17:49 - 17:54
    He's waiting behind the school
    in a white pickup truck.
  • 18:02 - 18:03
    Wadjda.
  • 18:06 - 18:08
    Come tomorrow
    with your head covered,
  • 18:08 - 18:10
    or I'll reserve
    a place in the sun for you.
  • 18:11 - 18:13
    I will, God willing.
  • 18:15 - 18:17
    Cover your face.
  • 18:52 - 18:56
    - Are you Abeer's brother?
    - Of course I'm her brother.
  • 18:57 - 18:59
    Got the card?
  • 19:02 - 19:05
    Here it is.
    Abeer said you'd give me 20 riyals.
  • 19:05 - 19:09
    ' Really?
    " Yes!
  • 19:12 - 19:15
    OK, just take it.
  • 19:22 - 19:25
    What? Even your cash
    reeks of cologne.
  • 19:59 - 20:03
    Did you know they invented
    a new thing called a tape player?
  • 20:04 - 20:07
    - Buying today?
    - How would I know?
  • 20:07 - 20:09
    People need to browse, don't they?
  • 20:21 - 20:24
    You won't find any tapes back there.
    We only have CDs.
  • 20:24 - 20:26
    Thanks! See you tomorrow.
  • 20:55 - 20:58
    Do you believe me,
    or do I need to take an oath?
  • 20:58 - 21:02
    I cannot find the words
    to describe you!
  • 21:02 - 21:05
    Do you believe me,
    or do I need to take an oath?
  • 21:05 - 21:09
    I cannot find the words
    to describe you!
  • 21:09 - 21:14
    The paradise of love
    is in your nature
  • 21:14 - 21:17
    Don't you wish you were a singer?
  • 21:17 - 21:20
    Me, a singer! God forbid!
  • 21:23 - 21:26
    I've saved up 87 riyals already.
  • 21:26 - 21:29
    I only need 713.
    Couldn't you lend me the money?
  • 21:31 - 21:36
    Oh no! Not that bike again? Stop it!
  • 21:43 - 21:47
    Ms Hussa said I have to wear
    the full abaya to school.
  • 21:47 - 21:52
    Wow! The full abaya?
    Maybe it's time to marry you off!
  • 21:52 - 21:54
    Very funny!
  • 21:55 - 21:57
    Come with me.
  • 22:09 - 22:11
    Try this.
  • 22:19 - 22:21
    Oh, Mum, it's too long.
  • 22:22 - 22:23
    Hold it like that.
  • 22:29 - 22:31
    Oh, no, a thief, a thief!
  • 22:34 - 22:38
    A thief jumped over
    Ms Hussa's fence to see her.
  • 22:39 - 22:42
    We don't know that.
    Maybe it was really a thief.
  • 22:42 - 22:44
    Shame on you
    for saying such things.
  • 22:46 - 22:47
    A thief.
  • 22:49 - 22:50
    A thief! A thief!
  • 22:52 - 22:56
    I have to buy something really nice
    for your uncle's wedding,
  • 22:56 - 22:59
    so all the other women
    think a hundred times
  • 22:59 - 23:01
    before they look at your father.
  • 23:10 - 23:13
    I'm so sorry, Leila. I really am.
  • 23:16 - 23:19
    Our driver Iqbal is so rude.
  • 23:20 - 23:22
    He shouted at poor Aiesha today.
  • 23:24 - 23:28
    I felt so sorry for her.
    She cried for three whole hours.
  • 23:31 - 23:33
    Abeer, Mariam's daughter?
  • 23:36 - 23:38
    She was caught with a man?
  • 23:39 - 23:41
    Do you know who he is?
  • 23:43 - 23:45
    Oh, I know who he is now!
  • 23:47 - 23:49
    A playboy like his father.
  • 23:51 - 23:54
    Is he good-looking like his father?
  • 23:55 - 23:59
    You have to admit,
    his father is good-looking.
  • 24:00 - 24:03
    The religious police?
  • 24:04 - 24:07
    Mariam must be devastated!
  • 24:08 - 24:10
    They should have married her off
    ages ago.
  • 24:10 - 24:13
    Girls like that are nothing but trouble.
  • 24:15 - 24:19
    I have to go, Father's just arrived.
  • 24:20 - 24:24
    Keep me in the loop
    on this Abeer scandal.
  • 24:24 - 24:28
    Take care. Bye.
  • 24:33 - 24:35
    What's the matter?
  • 24:36 - 24:40
    Don't worry, we won't marry you off.
    Go and say hello to your father.
  • 25:06 - 25:08
    I'm losing.
  • 25:08 - 25:11
    I should have stayed
    with my usual fighter.
  • 25:16 - 25:20
    Is that a real school report or a fake
    like the one you made last year?
  • 25:20 - 25:24
    It's real. I'm great at maths.
    Shall I prove it?
  • 25:24 - 25:26
    Pythagoras' theorem
    is a miracle of God.
  • 25:26 - 25:29
    The triangle always
    stays the same!
  • 25:29 - 25:32
    Sounds like you know
    what you're talking about.
  • 25:34 - 25:36
    I'm saving to buy a bike.
  • 25:41 - 25:42
    I lost.
  • 25:44 - 25:45
    Where's the margoog?
  • 25:49 - 25:51
    What a beauty!
  • 25:52 - 25:54
    A superstar is here!
  • 25:55 - 25:58
    Stop it! Superstar, eh?
  • 25:58 - 26:03
    Then why is your mother checking
    all over town for available women for you?
  • 26:03 - 26:06
    I don't think she's trying that hard.
  • 26:10 - 26:12
    Come and play with me!
  • 26:12 - 26:15
    I can't play.
  • 26:15 - 26:16
    Let me play!
  • 26:46 - 26:48
    Tapes with love songs...
  • 26:49 - 26:53
    Bracelets for football clubs...
  • 26:55 - 26:57
    Are you running a football fan club?
  • 26:59 - 27:03
    Don't you know
    that these items are forbidden?
  • 27:07 - 27:11
    Abeer was always a good girl.
  • 27:11 - 27:13
    She never caused any trouble.
  • 27:15 - 27:20
    Did you hear that she was caught
    with a young man who isn't family?
  • 27:26 - 27:30
    Did you arrange the rendezvous
    between Abeer and the man?
  • 27:30 - 27:33
    - No, I didn't!
    - Don't lie.
  • 27:33 - 27:36
    I'm certain you were involved.
  • 27:36 - 27:39
    I just don't know in what way.
  • 27:42 - 27:45
    What should we do with you now?
    Expel you?
  • 27:50 - 27:55
    Just a moment, please.
    I'm not finished with her.
  • 28:00 - 28:02
    You may go back to your class.
  • 28:02 - 28:04
    We'll finish this discussion later.
  • 28:19 - 28:23
    And Wadjda,
    stop wearing those torn-up shoes.
  • 28:23 - 28:26
    Wear normal black shoes,
    like the other girls.
  • 28:29 - 28:30
    What's this?
  • 28:30 - 28:34
    The proposal for the Koran competition
    in the religious club.
  • 28:48 - 28:51
    I really don't know what to say, Principal!
  • 28:58 - 29:00
    All this because of a bike?
  • 29:01 - 29:04
    As long as I live, you won't get one.
  • 29:04 - 29:06
    Should I wait until you get expelled?
  • 29:11 - 29:15
    And turn off that damn radio
    and those evil songs!
  • 29:17 - 29:19
    Those songs
    have brought us nothing but evil.
  • 29:20 - 29:22
    You're no better than Abeer.
  • 29:22 - 29:26
    She's staying at home
    and her parents are marrying her off.
  • 29:50 - 29:54
    I should pay for it?
    Why can't you pay for once?
  • 29:55 - 29:57
    I pay for your driver!
  • 29:57 - 29:59
    All your cash
    is in your woman's saving fund.
  • 29:59 - 30:03
    Yeah, and what about the bride price,
    you handsome groom?
  • 30:05 - 30:08
    Do you think
    I want to support two families?
  • 30:09 - 30:12
    Bear me a son
    and everything will be fine.
  • 30:14 - 30:16
    But we know
    that's not going to happen.
  • 30:19 - 30:23
    Forget it. And don't count on me
    coming at all next week!
  • 30:26 - 30:28
    Don't come back!
  • 30:28 - 30:32
    Go to your mother's house
    and discuss potential brides.
  • 31:03 - 31:05
    Madam, only one hour I wait.
  • 31:05 - 31:08
    I have no time wait for you.
  • 31:08 - 31:12
    - You late, I go. You find taxi.
    - Enough, Iqbal, I get it.
  • 31:15 - 31:17
    Who's that girl, Iqbal?
  • 31:19 - 31:23
    My daughter.
    I haven't seen her for three years now.
  • 31:24 - 31:26
    She go school now.
  • 31:27 - 31:29
    I no go to school.
  • 31:29 - 31:32
    That's obvious,
    because you don't have any manners.
  • 31:32 - 31:34
    Shame on you.
  • 31:34 - 31:36
    You too have no manners.
  • 32:09 - 32:11
    I make better bracelets than these.
  • 32:11 - 32:14
    - Wm you
    - No! n per pie"?
  • 32:14 - 32:16
    I buy them from China,
    I can get 10,000 for ten riyals.
  • 32:16 - 32:20
    - China won't do the national colours.
    - You mean like these?
  • 32:58 - 33:01
    - Can I try on that dress?
    - Of course.
  • 33:04 - 33:07
    There's a women's bathroom
    at the end of the corridor.
  • 33:09 - 33:12
    If it's too big, we can alter it for you.
  • 33:12 - 33:14
    Thanks.
  • 33:45 - 33:48
    What do you think?
  • 33:48 - 33:50
    Would your dad like it?
  • 33:58 - 34:03
    Let's take the dress back
    to the salesman so he can take it in.
  • 34:06 - 34:09
    Then let's go, before Iqbal
    gets angry and leaves us.
  • 34:10 - 34:12
    Don't worry, he won't leave.
  • 34:19 - 34:21
    Hand me my dress.
  • 34:37 - 34:40
    Who were you talking to
    about the bike yesterday?
  • 34:40 - 34:42
    What are you talking about?
  • 34:42 - 34:46
    I don't want you selling my bike
    to anyone else.
  • 34:47 - 34:49
    Here.
  • 34:49 - 34:52
    I made you a mix tape,
    since we're friends now.
  • 34:56 - 34:59
    But don't sell my bike.
  • 35:01 - 35:03
    God willing.
  • 35:10 - 35:15
    Ms Hussa will explain
    the rules of the Koran competition.
  • 35:15 - 35:17
    It's only five weeks away.
  • 35:19 - 35:22
    I'll pass around a sign-up sheet.
  • 35:22 - 35:24
    - Ms Hussa...
    - Thanks.
  • 35:24 - 35:27
    First of all,
    we've increased the prize money.
  • 35:27 - 35:30
    It's now 1,000 instead of 800 riyals.
  • 35:30 - 35:33
    You'll have to learn the first five suras.
  • 35:35 - 35:38
    The competition has two parts.
  • 35:38 - 35:42
    The first involves vocabulary
    and God's revelation of the verses.
  • 35:43 - 35:47
    The second part is recitation.
  • 35:47 - 35:50
    The recitation has to be flawless.
  • 35:51 - 35:55
    I repeat,
    correct pronunciation is a must.
  • 35:55 - 35:59
    Good luck with your efforts.
  • 35:59 - 36:00
    Thanks.
  • 36:14 - 36:16
    Yes?
  • 36:17 - 36:19
    What do you want?
  • 36:25 - 36:29
    I thought about what you said.
    I was wrong and I'm ready to change.
  • 36:31 - 36:34
    Praise God! All of a sudden?
  • 36:38 - 36:40
    I'd like to join the religious club.
  • 36:51 - 36:53
    How much?
  • 36:53 - 36:57
    Only 80 riyals. Cheaper than a bike.
  • 36:58 - 36:59
    How about 62?
  • 37:12 - 37:15
    Select the right answer!
    Who are the Sabians?
  • 37:20 - 37:24
    Wrong! Please try again.
    Who are the Sabians?
  • 37:24 - 37:25
    What?
  • 37:31 - 37:35
    Wrong! Please try again.
    Who are the Sabians?
  • 37:35 - 37:38
    - How am I supposed to know?
    - Iqbal!
  • 37:38 - 37:43
    You get your monthly salary
    whether you drive me around or not.
  • 37:46 - 37:49
    Why do you talk to me like this?
    Have you no shame?
  • 37:51 - 37:52
    Why?
  • 37:52 - 37:54
    You think you're the only driver around?
  • 37:55 - 37:58
    Tomorrow
    I'll find myself a better driver.
  • 38:40 - 38:43
    Guys, I'm late for school,
    I have to go!
  • 38:53 - 38:55
    Abdullah, how do I get to Derah?
  • 38:57 - 38:59
    Let's go.
  • 38:59 - 39:02
    Cover your face.
    I'll say you're my sister.
  • 39:02 - 39:05
    Your sister?
    No one will believe you.
  • 39:05 - 39:08
    I'm too good-looking
    to be related to you!
  • 39:09 - 39:14
    I can't arrange the commute.
    Can't it count as emergency leave?
  • 39:15 - 39:16
    I lost my driver.
  • 39:19 - 39:24
    I'll open up the school
    for the entire month if I have to.
  • 39:27 - 39:29
    That's very kind of you.
  • 39:31 - 39:33
    Take care.
  • 40:02 - 40:04
    Do you know
    where Iqbal the driver lives?
  • 40:04 - 40:07
    Do you know how many drivers
    called Iqbal live here?
  • 40:28 - 40:31
    I hope we're following the right lead.
  • 40:42 - 40:44
    This could be his car.
  • 40:54 - 40:56
    That's it.
  • 41:17 - 41:21
    - What do you want?
    - Iqbal?
  • 41:31 - 41:33
    It's not my business, it's yours.
  • 41:35 - 41:36
    OK.
  • 41:48 - 41:50
    You? What do you want?
  • 41:50 - 41:53
    Iqbal, why did you do that?
  • 41:53 - 41:54
    Go away!
  • 41:56 - 42:00
    - Where's your residency permit?
    - What do you want with it?
  • 42:00 - 42:05
    It's a good job. Go back to driving
    Wadjda's mother and you'll be fine.
  • 42:05 - 42:08
    You know my uncle,
    the guy with the moustache?
  • 42:08 - 42:12
    I'm sure he'd be interested to look
    further into your legal status.
  • 42:21 - 42:25
    "You know my uncle,
    the guy with the moustache?"
  • 42:26 - 42:29
    He knew him, right? That moustache
    is a registered trademark!
  • 42:34 - 42:39
    Their son put explosives around his waist
    and boom, he died.
  • 42:39 - 42:41
    He's crazy! That must hurt!
  • 42:41 - 42:44
    If you die for God, it's like a pin prick.
  • 42:44 - 42:47
    And then you fly up
    and you have 70 brides!
  • 42:48 - 42:50
    Really?
  • 42:50 - 42:53
    Boom! 70 bikes!
  • 42:53 - 42:56
    You've got it all wrong.
    That's not how it works.
  • 43:12 - 43:14
    Come on, don't you miss us?
  • 43:16 - 43:18
    It's been almost two weeks.
  • 43:21 - 43:25
    Do you think about us?
    Or is someone else on your mind?
  • 43:28 - 43:32
    If I'm the original brand,
    why are you looking for an imitation?
  • 43:36 - 43:39
    OK. Take care.
  • 43:47 - 43:49
    Carry on studying.
  • 43:51 - 43:53
    Hello, Leila!
  • 43:54 - 43:56
    Are you coming round?
  • 43:58 - 44:01
    Could you bring me
    the money you borrowed?
  • 44:01 - 44:03
    Really?
  • 44:04 - 44:07
    You're working in the hospital
    across the road?
  • 44:07 - 44:10
    Your husband
    doesn't mind you working with men?
  • 44:17 - 44:20
    What do you want?
  • 44:20 - 44:25
    My uncle wants me to string some lights
    across the street from your roof.
  • 44:25 - 44:29
    Ask the neighbours.
    We don't care about your uncle.
  • 44:29 - 44:33
    They don't have a pole to hang them on.
    Yours is the only roof that'll work.
  • 44:36 - 44:37
    Wait a minute.
  • 44:44 - 44:46
    Mum?
  • 44:50 - 44:54
    Thanks, honey. When you want to be,
    you're such a sweetheart.
  • 44:54 - 44:58
    Abdullah wants to string up lights
    for the election
  • 44:58 - 45:00
    so his uncle with the moustache
    will win.
  • 45:00 - 45:04
    Tell him no. His uncle isn't from our tribe
    and we won't vote for him.
  • 45:06 - 45:10
    I'll let you onto the roof
    on one condition.
  • 45:10 - 45:12
    You have to bring your bike.
  • 45:25 - 45:27
    Hello, Wadjda.
  • 45:27 - 45:30
    You look so grown up and cute!
  • 45:30 - 45:32
    - Where's your mother?
    - She's coming.
  • 45:32 - 45:34
    How's school?
  • 45:36 - 45:38
    - I don't like it, but it's OK.
    - Leila!
  • 45:46 - 45:49
    Traitor! Working so close to my house
    without telling me.
  • 45:49 - 45:52
    Finally, I'm done with Iqbal.
  • 45:52 - 45:56
    Three hours in the car with him
    every day was about to kill me.
  • 45:56 - 45:59
    The hospital provides transport,
    and the pay and hours are good.
  • 45:59 - 46:01
    And the driver waits for me.
  • 46:03 - 46:05
    When's the party?
  • 46:05 - 46:07
    Next month.
  • 46:07 - 46:10
    I want to buy a nice dress
    for her uncle's engagement.
  • 46:10 - 46:13
    The potential wives will be
    at his brother's wedding as well.
  • 46:13 - 46:18
    God be with the one he chooses.
    You might rip her heart out that night!
  • 46:21 - 46:25
    Oh, before I forget.
    They're hiring at the hospital.
  • 46:25 - 46:28
    - It's closer and we can chat all day!
    - Leila! My husband's so jealous.
  • 46:28 - 46:31
    He can't stand the thought
    of men looking at me.
  • 46:31 - 46:35
    Stop it! You blame
    everything on your husband.
  • 47:08 - 47:10
    What's this?
  • 47:10 - 47:15
    It'll help you learn. I need to work
    on the lights. I can't push you all day.
  • 47:16 - 47:18
    You think I'm a little girl.
  • 48:03 - 48:05
    Here, I took them off.
  • 48:10 - 48:12
    I'll give you five riyals if you stop crying.
  • 49:01 - 49:03
    Now, girls, let's start.
  • 49:06 - 49:08
    Does each girl have her Koran?
  • 49:10 - 49:12
    Before we start...
  • 49:12 - 49:16
    If you're having a period,
    you're not allowed to touch the Koran.
  • 49:16 - 49:20
    This isn't a laughing matter.
    You're young ladies now.
  • 49:21 - 49:23
    I said stop.
  • 49:24 - 49:28
    You should touch it with a tissue,
    not with your fingers.
  • 49:29 - 49:30
    Page 87.
  • 49:31 - 49:36
    Start with Surat An-Nisa', from Ayat 59.
  • 49:38 - 49:41
    Let's start with the new face. Wadjda.
  • 49:43 - 49:45
    Wadjda, go ahead.
  • 49:45 - 49:48
    - O you who have believed...
    - Louder.
  • 49:48 - 49:51
    O you who have believed...
  • 49:55 - 49:58
    - Obey...
    - Obey Allah and...
  • 50:00 - 50:02
    obey the Messenger...
  • 50:08 - 50:11
    - And those in authority...
    - And those in authority,
  • 50:11 - 50:16
    and if you disagree over anything...
  • 50:16 - 50:18
    You're mispronouncing the words.
  • 50:21 - 50:26
    - And if you disagree...
    - And if you disagree over anything...
  • 50:26 - 50:32
    And if you disagree over anything,
    refer it to Allah and the Messenger...
  • 50:37 - 50:43
    If you should...
    Stop, please. Noura, continue.
  • 50:44 - 50:47
    O you who have believed,
  • 50:47 - 50:51
    obey Allah and obey the Messenger,
    and those in authority.
  • 50:51 - 50:56
    And if you disagree over anything,
    refer it to Allah.
  • 50:56 - 50:59
    Refer it to Allah and the Prophet.
  • 51:14 - 51:18
    All that fuss for a bike
    and you don't even know how to ride?
  • 51:18 - 51:20
    I have a plan.
  • 51:27 - 51:29
    What's that?
  • 51:29 - 51:33
    It's an antenna
    that gets all the radio stations.
  • 51:33 - 51:36
    My uncle's going to speak on the radio
    with famous Koran readers.
  • 51:36 - 51:38
    "It makes your heart melt," he says.
  • 51:38 - 51:43
    He should hear my mother sing!
    She should have a channel of her own.
  • 52:23 - 52:26
    Oh...
  • 52:42 - 52:45
    We'll talk about this later.
  • 53:33 - 53:36
    Where's the nail polish?
  • 53:36 - 53:38
    I hid it under there the other day.
  • 53:42 - 53:44
    What are you doing here?
  • 53:45 - 53:47
    Why were your hands under her skirt?
  • 53:52 - 53:54
    In my office, now!
  • 54:24 - 54:28
    Wadjda? Wake up, honey.
  • 54:28 - 54:31
    Let's get up and say the dawn prayer.
  • 54:42 - 54:46
    I saw some girls on TV riding bikes.
    Give me the money to buy one.
  • 54:46 - 54:49
    I know you have money.
    I saw it in the drawer.
  • 54:50 - 54:52
    Here, girls don't ride bikes.
  • 54:52 - 54:55
    You won't be able to have children
    if you ride a bike!
  • 54:57 - 55:00
    You don't ride a bike
    and you can't have children!
  • 55:03 - 55:07
    How could you say that?
    I almost died having you!
  • 55:08 - 55:10
    Wash for prayer!
  • 55:37 - 55:39
    Girls.
  • 55:39 - 55:42
    Who can find a tajwid
    on this page? Page 92.
  • 55:42 - 55:45
    - Which verse?
    - Verse 88?
  • 55:45 - 55:46
    Yes.
  • 55:46 - 55:48
    "Who does..."
  • 55:48 - 55:52
    - What kind of tajwid?
    - ldgham?
  • 55:52 - 55:53
    - What type?
    - Moughana.
  • 55:53 - 55:55
    Excellent!
  • 55:56 - 55:58
    What do you think, Wadjda?
  • 56:00 - 56:03
    I think this competition
    is very difficult for me.
  • 56:05 - 56:08
    I heard on the Koran channel yesterday,
  • 56:08 - 56:14
    if learning the Koran is difficult for you,
    God will reward you doubly.
  • 56:15 - 56:17
    I want you all
    to take Wadjda as an example
  • 56:18 - 56:23
    of a person who tries hard
    and is devoted to God.
  • 56:23 - 56:26
    - You're doing well!
    - Thank you, Miss.
  • 56:30 - 56:31
    Excuse me.
  • 56:45 - 56:49
    Wadjda, Ms Hussa says
    she needs to see you.
  • 56:52 - 56:54
    Put your Koran aside.
  • 56:58 - 57:01
    You may not believe it,
  • 57:02 - 57:04
    but by God, you remind me
    of myself at your age.
  • 57:06 - 57:08
    And look at me now.
  • 57:12 - 57:14
    Close the door.
  • 57:21 - 57:25
    You still insist that you weren't
    doing anything behind the school?
  • 57:30 - 57:35
    We were reading magazines,
    that's all. Ask her.
  • 57:46 - 57:48
    I'm not sure.
    I was standing far away.
  • 57:53 - 57:56
    Thank you, Wadjda.
    You may return to your class.
  • 57:56 - 58:00
    Give this file to Aunt Jamila.
  • 58:09 - 58:11
    Close the door.
  • 58:16 - 58:17
    This is a pledge.
  • 58:18 - 58:22
    You'll sign it and you'll be able
    to stay in school.
  • 58:39 - 58:41
    In the name of God,
    gracious and merciful,
  • 58:41 - 58:45
    I salute all you girls
    for your efforts this term.
  • 58:47 - 58:53
    I want to remind you that school is
    a place of learning and a place of morals.
  • 58:55 - 58:56
    Listen carefully.
  • 58:57 - 59:02
    Two students were caught
    in the back yard committing a sin.
  • 59:03 - 59:05
    The two are...
  • 59:06 - 59:10
    Faten Khaled and Fatima Abdullah.
  • 59:16 - 59:19
    To avoid similar situations,
  • 59:19 - 59:24
    you're no longer allowed
    to bring flowers to school
  • 59:26 - 59:29
    or to give each other
    letters of love and admiration.
  • 59:30 - 59:34
    And no one is allowed to hold hands.
  • 59:36 - 59:38
    Do you understand?
  • 59:43 - 59:46
    You may go to your classes now.
    Thank you.
  • 59:47 - 59:49
    Your bags are over there.
  • 60:06 - 60:09
    Don't touch me!
  • 60:40 - 60:44
    I wish I could cut my hair shorter,
    like Lobna Abdel Aziz's.
  • 60:44 - 60:46
    Do it.
  • 60:46 - 60:50
    Your father loves my hair
    long and smooth.
  • 61:15 - 61:18
    My mother saw the lights
    but forgot to ask me about them again.
  • 61:18 - 61:22
    She doesn't know?
    What about your father?
  • 61:22 - 61:25
    I think they like your uncle,
  • 61:25 - 61:28
    since he was on Koran Radio.
  • 61:36 - 61:38
    I'm bleeding...
  • 61:38 - 61:41
    Where's the blood coming from?
    Your virginity!
  • 61:42 - 61:44
    From my knee!
  • 61:45 - 61:49
    Your knee?
    Bikes are dangerous for girls!
  • 61:49 - 61:52
    You think you can act like a boy?
  • 61:52 - 61:55
    And you!
    Why did you let her ride the bike?
  • 61:55 - 61:58
    Come back!
    Take that bike with you!
  • 62:00 - 62:04
    I'll tell your uncle
    to teach you some manners.
  • 62:05 - 62:07
    Get up.
  • 62:10 - 62:16
    Shame on you, bringing
    a boy upstairs with no one home!
  • 62:16 - 62:18
    If your father knew, he'd kill you!
  • 62:36 - 62:41
    Do you want the men to hear you?
    Take the bread out of the oven.
  • 63:15 - 63:16
    Wow! All this food!
  • 63:16 - 63:20
    They'll be really impressed.
    You make me so proud!
  • 63:20 - 63:22
    Obviously not proud enough.
  • 63:50 - 63:54
    Turki, Saleh, Ali, Abdurahman,
  • 63:54 - 63:58
    Abulazziz, Rashed, Abdullah...
  • 63:58 - 64:00
    My father!
  • 64:07 - 64:10
    Interested in your father's
    glorious family tree?
  • 64:11 - 64:14
    You aren't on it.
    It only includes men's names.
  • 64:33 - 64:35
    Clean up when you've finished.
  • 64:35 - 64:37
    Hide the traces of your crime.
  • 64:37 - 64:41
    I don't want
    to make him upset with us again.
  • 65:10 - 65:12
    WADJDA
  • 65:15 - 65:18
    Give me the picture!
  • 65:18 - 65:20
    I said give me the picture!
  • 65:20 - 65:22
    What's going on?
  • 65:24 - 65:28
    Salma just got married
    and brought pictures of her wedding.
  • 65:28 - 65:30
    Congratulations!
    Can I see the pictures?
  • 65:33 - 65:35
    Are these of your wedding?
  • 65:40 - 65:41
    Is this your husband?
  • 65:43 - 65:45
    - How old is he?
    - 20.
  • 65:46 - 65:48
    It's not funny.
  • 65:50 - 65:53
    Pictures are forbidden at school.
    Let's get started.
  • 65:56 - 65:58
    Surat An-Nisa', page 97.
  • 65:59 - 66:02
    Wadjda, start with verse 115.
  • 66:04 - 66:07
    - I'll try to recite the verses.
    - Really?
  • 66:07 - 66:09
    Close the Koran and go ahead.
  • 66:10 - 66:15
    Whoever opposes the Messenger, after
    guidance has become clear to him,
  • 66:15 - 66:18
    and follows the path of the non-believer,
  • 66:18 - 66:20
    - we will give him what he has taken...
    - We will give him...
  • 66:20 - 66:22
    We will give him what he has taken...
  • 66:24 - 66:28
    and drive him into hell,
    that most evil destination.
  • 66:28 - 66:30
    Terrific!
  • 66:30 - 66:33
    You need to work on your tarteel
    and your tajwid.
  • 66:33 - 66:36
    If you aim to win,
    you must recite like Salma.
  • 66:37 - 66:39
    Salma, please read verse 115 again.
  • 66:39 - 66:44
    In the name of God,
    the most gracious, the most merciful
  • 66:44 - 66:51
    Whoever opposes the Messenger
    after guidance has become clear to him
  • 66:51 - 66:55
    And follows the path of the non-believer
  • 66:55 - 67:01
    We will give him what he has taken
  • 67:01 - 67:06
    And drive him into hell,
    that most evil destination
  • 67:06 - 67:11
    Indeed, Allah does not forgive
    association with him
  • 67:11 - 67:17
    But he forgives what is less
    than that for whom he wills
  • 67:17 - 67:22
    And he who associates others with Allah
    has certainly gone far astray
  • 67:22 - 67:23
    Great!
  • 67:35 - 67:37
    Are you cross with me?
  • 67:38 - 67:40
    I've got homework to do.
  • 67:41 - 67:43
    Wait a second.
  • 67:44 - 67:47
    Here, I got you a helmet,
    like the ones on TV.
  • 67:52 - 67:54
    Wanna ride in the empty lot'?
  • 67:54 - 67:56
    We've got a few minutes
    before people come.
  • 68:03 - 68:06
    Abdullah! Look!
  • 68:19 - 68:23
    The toy shop owner told Khalid and his dad
    someone had reserved the bike.
  • 68:25 - 68:27
    He must be holding it for me!
  • 68:30 - 68:32
    Right answer!
  • 68:33 - 68:36
    Select the right answer!
  • 68:36 - 68:38
    Who are the Sabians?
  • 68:38 - 68:40
    I know the answer!
  • 68:40 - 68:42
    Correct!
  • 68:43 - 68:45
    At last!
  • 68:48 - 68:53
    Well, if you won't listen to me,
    I don't know why I should listen to you!
  • 69:00 - 69:02
    Get ready, we're going out.
  • 69:02 - 69:06
    Don't leave the Koran open.
    The devil might spit into it.
  • 69:09 - 69:12
    Are you going to work here with Leila?
  • 69:12 - 69:15
    Those lab coats are cool,
    like The Matrix but white!
  • 69:15 - 69:17
    I just want to give her something.
  • 69:24 - 69:25
    Wadjda!
  • 69:27 - 69:30
    Hello and welcome!
  • 69:30 - 69:32
    Leila, why isn't your face covered?
  • 69:34 - 69:37
    Wait, let me get you
    the application form.
  • 69:42 - 69:45
    Welcome! How are you?
  • 69:45 - 69:47
    Fine, thank you.
  • 69:58 - 70:02
    It's a good job, and the vacancies
    are filling up quickly. You should...
  • 70:02 - 70:05
    Leila! Stop it.
  • 70:05 - 70:10
    I just came by to say hello.
    I'll call you later, you look busy.
  • 70:10 - 70:13
    - Take care.
    - Why are you going?
  • 70:13 - 70:15
    Take care.
  • 70:16 - 70:19
    I thought you were going to apply.
  • 70:28 - 70:33
    And among His signs is this. He created
    for you helpmeats from yourselves
  • 70:35 - 70:37
    so that you may find rest in them...
  • 70:37 - 70:41
    No, honey, give it a tone like this.
  • 70:42 - 70:47
    And among his signs is this. He created
    for you helpmeats from yourselves
  • 70:47 - 70:50
    So that you may find rest in them
  • 70:50 - 70:57
    And he ordained between you
    love and mercy
  • 70:57 - 71:01
    Verily in that are signs
    for those who reflect
  • 71:01 - 71:04
    I feel shy! I can't recite like that
    in front of everyone.
  • 71:05 - 71:08
    You, shy? Ha! I only wish it were true!
  • 71:22 - 71:24
    Look! There's my father!
  • 71:24 - 71:27
    - Where?
    - There!
  • 71:55 - 71:57
    So do you love him?
  • 71:59 - 72:01
    Who?
  • 72:01 - 72:04
    - Your father?
    - No, the neighbour's boy!
  • 72:05 - 72:09
    I don't think I'm the one
    in love with the neighbour's boy!
  • 72:09 - 72:11
    That's not funny.
  • 72:12 - 72:15
    You didn't answer. Do you love him?
  • 72:20 - 72:23
    I was at secondary school
    when he asked for my hand.
  • 72:23 - 72:27
    All the girls went crazy
    when they saw his picture.
  • 72:27 - 72:28
    They were so jealous.
  • 72:30 - 72:32
    He was the first man in my life
  • 72:32 - 72:35
    and will hopefully be the last.
  • 72:39 - 72:41
    You're the prettiest woman
    I've ever seen.
  • 72:41 - 72:45
    You'll give him a heart attack
    with your red dress.
  • 72:47 - 72:48
    Don't worry.
  • 72:48 - 72:51
    He would never burn my heart
    with a second wife.
  • 72:52 - 72:56
    Let's practise reciting
    for the competition tomorrow.
  • 72:56 - 72:58
    Go on.
  • 72:58 - 73:04
    And among his signs is this. He created
    for you helpmates from yourselves
  • 73:04 - 73:07
    So that you may find rest in them
  • 73:07 - 73:13
    And he ordained between you
    love and mercy
  • 73:14 - 73:16
    The words need to come
    from your heart.
  • 73:17 - 73:21
    Ignore your surroundings.
    Read from your heart.
  • 73:22 - 73:25
    I'd love to be there tomorrow
    and see you win.
  • 73:28 - 73:32
    But I have to commute
    to the end of the world again.
  • 75:19 - 75:21
    Benevolence?
  • 75:22 - 75:25
    Wrong answer. Thank you.
  • 75:29 - 75:30
    Next, please.
  • 75:35 - 75:38
    What is the meaning
    of "sadakatouhen"?
  • 75:38 - 75:41
    - Bride price?
    - Correct.
  • 75:42 - 75:44
    Salma.
  • 75:49 - 75:51
    What is "furkan"?
  • 75:54 - 75:58
    - The Koran?
    - Correct.
  • 76:00 - 76:02
    Wadjda!
  • 76:10 - 76:12
    What does "da'ab" mean?
  • 76:17 - 76:18
    Habit?
  • 76:20 - 76:21
    Correct.
  • 76:25 - 76:27
    Noura.
  • 76:31 - 76:33
    What is "zaygh"?
  • 76:37 - 76:38
    Weakness.
  • 76:40 - 76:41
    Correct.
  • 76:44 - 76:46
    Next.
  • 76:50 - 76:52
    What is "hoban kabiran"?
  • 77:01 - 77:04
    I'm sorry, Yasmin. Back to your seat.
  • 77:10 - 77:13
    What is "hoban kabiran"?
  • 77:17 - 77:19
    A big something?
  • 77:23 - 77:26
    Wrong. Back to your seat, please.
  • 77:31 - 77:33
    What is "hoban kabiran"?
  • 77:34 - 77:38
    - Great injustice.
    - Correct.
  • 78:31 - 78:33
    Thank you, Salma.
    God bless you!
  • 78:40 - 78:42
    Wadjda.
  • 78:47 - 78:50
    Please start with verse seven
    of Surat Al-Baqarah.
  • 78:50 - 78:53
    Begin at "God sealed their hearts".
  • 79:00 - 79:03
    Allah hath set
    a seal on their hearts...
  • 79:10 - 79:13
    Allah hath set a seal on their hearts
  • 79:13 - 79:17
    And their hearing and sight
    are veiled
  • 79:18 - 79:21
    Great is the penalty they incur
  • 79:22 - 79:25
    Of the people there are some who say
  • 79:25 - 79:29
    "We believe in Allah and the Last Day"
  • 79:29 - 79:33
    But they do not really believe
  • 79:34 - 79:39
    They would deceive Allah
    and those who believe
  • 79:39 - 79:46
    But they only deceive themselves
    and don't realise it
  • 79:47 - 79:49
    In their hearts is a disease
  • 79:49 - 79:52
    And Allah has increased their disease
  • 79:53 - 79:56
    And grievous is the penalty they incur
  • 79:56 - 79:59
    Because they are false to themselves
  • 79:59 - 80:03
    When it is said to them,
    "Make not mischief on the earth"
  • 80:03 - 80:10
    They say, "Why, we only
    want to make peace"
  • 80:10 - 80:15
    Certainly, they are
    the ones who make mischief
  • 80:15 - 80:18
    But they don't realise it
  • 80:25 - 80:28
    That was wonderful, Wadjda!
    God bless you!
  • 80:35 - 80:38
    Are you sure
    you want to pray next to us?
  • 80:38 - 80:40
    Congratulations!
  • 80:40 - 80:42
    The winner hasn't been announced yet.
  • 80:42 - 80:44
    You won! You're their favourite convert.
  • 80:44 - 80:47
    I'm sure they were all on your side.
  • 80:48 - 80:50
    Come here!
  • 80:50 - 80:52
    We saved you a place in the first row.
  • 80:53 - 80:55
    Coward.
  • 80:58 - 81:00
    Get in line.
  • 81:02 - 81:07
    Move closer.
    Don't leave a gap for the devil.
  • 81:08 - 81:10
    God is great.
  • 81:25 - 81:27
    God is great.
  • 81:32 - 81:34
    Allah listens to he who praises him.
  • 81:36 - 81:38
    God is great.
  • 81:50 - 81:53
    Be quiet, girls. Silence!
  • 81:57 - 82:01
    The competition finalists are...
  • 82:01 - 82:05
    Noura Saleh, Salma Abdel Azziz,
  • 82:05 - 82:07
    and Wadjda Al Saffan.
  • 82:07 - 82:12
    And now, the third prize goes to...
  • 82:12 - 82:14
    Salma Abdul Azziz.
  • 82:16 - 82:18
    Congratulations!
  • 82:19 - 82:23
    The winner of the second prize is...
  • 82:25 - 82:27
    Noura Saleh.
  • 82:28 - 82:30
    Congratulations, Noura!
  • 82:35 - 82:38
    Wadjda, you're our champion.
    Congratulations!
  • 82:38 - 82:43
    You've won because
    of your devotion and perseverance.
  • 82:43 - 82:46
    I hope all the girls here today
    learn from your example.
  • 82:46 - 82:48
    Congratulations!
  • 82:53 - 82:57
    And what are your plans
    regarding the prize money?
  • 82:58 - 83:03
    I'm going to buy a bike
    from the shop down the street.
  • 83:03 - 83:04
    What?
  • 83:05 - 83:07
    I'm buying a bike.
  • 83:07 - 83:10
    With no training wheels,
    since I know how to ride one.
  • 83:24 - 83:30
    Wouldn't it be better if we donated
    the money to our brethren in Palestine?
  • 83:34 - 83:37
    You know, a bike isn't a toy for girls.
  • 83:37 - 83:40
    Especially not
    for well-behaved, devout girls
  • 83:40 - 83:42
    who protect their soul and honour.
  • 83:42 - 83:45
    I'm sure your family won't allow it.
  • 83:48 - 83:49
    We'll donate the money,
  • 83:49 - 83:53
    and God willing,
    you'll be rewarded for your generosity.
  • 83:54 - 83:56
    Please go back to your seat.
  • 84:02 - 84:05
    That's all, girls, you can leave now.
  • 84:08 - 84:10
    So nothing has changed after all.
  • 84:12 - 84:15
    You think you can act however you want
    and people won't notice?
  • 84:15 - 84:20
    Your stupid behaviour
    will haunt you forever.
  • 84:24 - 84:27
    You mean like your "handsome" thief?
  • 84:56 - 84:59
    Didn't you win? Where's the money?
  • 85:00 - 85:01
    In Palestine!
  • 85:22 - 85:25
    I'll give you my bike!
  • 85:25 - 85:27
    Then how will we race?
  • 85:34 - 85:37
    I want to marry you when we're older.
  • 86:14 - 86:17
    Hey, you're home at last.
  • 86:18 - 86:21
    What's with the new hairstyle?
  • 86:21 - 86:24
    Your mother won't answer my calls.
  • 86:26 - 86:27
    Can I have a look?
  • 86:29 - 86:33
    You won? I can't believe it.
    You're my little darling!
  • 86:37 - 86:40
    Why are you crying?
    You're the winner.
  • 86:42 - 86:43
    Just a second.
  • 86:46 - 86:48
    Are you ready?
  • 86:58 - 87:00
    I'm so proud of you, my little champ.
  • 87:03 - 87:06
    I've been trying
    to call your mother all day.
  • 87:07 - 87:09
    When she gets back,
    tell her I love her.
  • 87:28 - 87:32
    Hello? Hi, Aunt Leila.
  • 87:33 - 87:35
    No, I don't know where she is.
  • 87:38 - 87:40
    Yeah, she's usually home by now.
  • 87:43 - 87:45
    OK, I'll let her know.
  • 87:46 - 87:48
    Bye.
  • 89:02 - 89:05
    Congratulations, I heard the news.
  • 89:05 - 89:09
    They said you won.
    I couldn't believe it.
  • 89:11 - 89:14
    If you set your mind to something,
    no one can stop you.
  • 89:18 - 89:20
    They didn't give me the money.
  • 89:20 - 89:24
    I couldn't believe you told them
    you wanted to buy a bike.
  • 89:25 - 89:29
    You don't need them or their money.
  • 89:37 - 89:39
    What's going on at Grandma's?
  • 89:39 - 89:43
    I thought my uncle's wedding
    wasn't until next month.
  • 89:44 - 89:46
    It's not your uncle's wedding.
  • 89:58 - 90:01
    It's all right. He made his decision.
  • 90:02 - 90:04
    It'll just be you and me now.
  • 90:22 - 90:24
    Let's buy the red dress...
  • 90:26 - 90:28
    and go over there and get him!
  • 90:28 - 90:31
    There's no need
    for the red dress any more.
  • 90:31 - 90:33
    Besides, I already spent the money.
  • 90:57 - 90:59
    I hope it's the right one.
  • 91:00 - 91:03
    The man at the shop
    had been holding it for weeks.
  • 91:03 - 91:05
    For some spunky little girl.
  • 91:05 - 91:08
    I want you to be
    the happiest person in the world.
  • 91:08 - 91:11
    You're all I have left in this world.
  • 92:38 - 92:39
    Abdullah. Goal!
  • 93:10 - 93:12
    Catch me if you can!
  • 93:14 - 93:32
