Seeking Haven for Mr. Rambo (2025) Movie Script
1
I tricked you, you goofball!
Good boy!
Are you a good boy? Or not?
Do you know how much salt to add?
Go get the potato bag from outside
and I'll give you a bite
Don't act like you don't understand, Rambo
Go get the potato bag
You won't obey to me at all?
You won't obey?
Don't act stupid
Get the potato bag
Don't play dead with me I taught
you that trick, you can't fool me!
How did you find the eggs?
You mean the ones lacking salt?
Yes, the ones lacking salt
I was going to fry some potatoes too
But as usual
I cut away half the potato when I peel it
What did you discuss with the lawyer?
He reassured me
He told me not to worry
as long as we had the contract
I'm not sure, Mom, I feel like this lawsuit
is only going to make him more stubborn
Let him be stubborn
or do whatever he wants
Eat up, sweetheart
He seems to like the bland eggs
He's my little darling
He'd eat anything I give him
Not like you
You're such a well-mannered little boy
Don't let anyone spoil you
Is that so? Okay
Just so you know, you don't deserve
what I had prepared for you
I had plans to take you out in two days
to get tasty food
and celebrate your birthday
No, let's not go out
Just make us a delicious cake
and a cup of milk tea
and let's watch the movie "The Ogre"
Like every year?
Okay then, dear
We still have last year's cake anyway
Hold this, hold it
I'm telling you let's go out!
Did you come to ask my permission before
dragging me to court? I don't get it
We want to resolve this matter peacefully
but you don't
You're talking as if I was trying
to scam you!
You're the one who likes to create drama
- Calm down, Mr. Karem
- Hold on, Hassan
You want to kick us out of the apartment
for only 30,000 pounds!
- Isn't this scamming?
- Dad
Take this to your mother
Tell her to be careful,
that red stain is blood
Okay
The money isn't enough to buy a hen house
That's your problem
I don't care if it gets you
a hen house or a pigsty
You need to move out within a month
We'll bring in some machines
and we'll knock down some walls
There's so much to do
and we'll knock down some walls
There's so much to do
I've been patient with you
for two months already
What's the matter, Mr. Karem?
- Did he tell you?
- He didn't tell me anything
But his brother called and said
he was in the hospital in critical condition
- They might press charges against you
- And who is stopping them?
- They have respect for me
- Respect?
Does that lowlife think he can
exploit us while I stand by and watch?
I won't keep cleaning after you at my age
Calm down, relax
There are people around
Go away
Let it be known that I've lived in
this house before you were born
And if your late father were alive
he wouldn't approve of this
Take a look outside for a moment
You'll see that this is now called
"Karem's Garage"
And this Karem's house
And what Karem says will be done
If you're in love with my dad, go to him
I'm not going anywhere
You're going to have
to drag my dead body out of here
You'll leave it willingly
Come on, Hassan
We'll see
Come on, Hassan
Did you find the contract?
I found it
"Dad and Hassan"
Keep her occupied until I get back to you
Come on, come here
No, no
you'll knock me over, you goofball!
Are you a silly boy?
That's enough, Rambo
Take this
Let's leave, Mom
Where will we go?
This is our home
and we'll never give it up
You'll find a piece of chicken
for Rambo next to your food
You're giving up your share yet again?
You're not wearing an undershirt again?
It suffocates me
- Wear it
- Alright
- Come on
- And you, wear your helmet!
Go and get your helmet
Come on, Rambo
Leave me this jacket on your day off
- It looks shabby, it needs fixing
- Okay
- Good morning, Abu Kareem
- Good morning
A pack of Box cigarettes
A pack Red, Mahmoud
That image again!
All the packs
in the parcel have this image
Thank you, Abu Kareem
Come on, Rambo
- Hello
- Hello
I want to convert these
tapes to files on my phone
Let me see them
Okay, leave me your number
When I'm done
I'll text you on WhatsApp
Would you like to try it, Hassan?
No, thank you, sir
Why not? The new year's coming up
and everyone will be celebrating
Try it
Start with small shots
and top it off with soda
Top it off how?
Pour a little of this
and fill the rest with soda
Hold on, hold on
It tastes awful, Rambo
Got it all going on, buddy!
Give me a cigarette
- I don't have any
- I can see it, you liar!
Go and buy them like everyone does
Don't be like that!
I'm dying to know what you're doing to him
Who do you mean?
The one who's babying you
I've been working with him for three years
he hasn't even offered me a juice box
Don't speak ill of him
he's a respectable man
Respectable? You're the respectable one
Enjoy your meal, Rambo!
What did you do?
What did you do?
Go up to the house
Hey, Hassan!
You're passing by without saying hi
or paying me any mind
Is that okay?
I didn't notice, Mr. Karem
But I have a bone to pick with you
This isn't the first
time you have ignored me
Am I invisible?
Maybe I smell bad! Do I smell bad?
Your smell is fine, mister
Okay then
Respect me
How?
Listen
You'll go over there
you'll come back and greet me
and I'll pretend that I didn't notice
Go on, Hassan
Go on
Here I am, not noticing
Hello, Mr. Karem
Not good enough, Hassan
You're saying it half-heatedly
Let's try that again
You will go over to that door
then you'll come towards me
and do so standing tall and looking good
And put a big smile on your face
And greet me
Go on, Hassan
Go on, Hassan
How are you, Ahmed?
Hello, Mr. Karem
This time it's good
Abu Ali
My dear
How are you, man?
My mother needs me, man, stop
That's enough
Let me go!
- You knocked me over?
- I didn't
- Did your mother push you to do that?
- My mother has nothing to do with it!
And your dog pissed on my car!
I'll clean it up
This garage will grow
It'll grow whether
your family likes it or not!
You think you'll outsmart me?
By tomorrow, you need to get out!
Get well soon
Look, I'm standing on my feet
May you be well
Hello, is anyone here?
What's the matter?
My dog is injured and bleeding
There's no one here
They've all left
Isn't there any clinic
or hospital nearby, sir?
Wait
You'll be fine
Welcome, my man
Thank you, Mr. Gama'iya
How are you? I've missed you
Did you get the medication?
- Do you need help?
- Thank you, my man
- Where's the doctor?
- Don't worry
Am I not enough for you?
Aren't you a barber?
He's a former nurse who's left
the hospital a few months ago, sir
- No, I'm leaving
- As you like
- Don't waste our time!
- Open the door
No one's available to treat him now
and the dog is bleeding
Do you need a hot towel?
Cold towel? You know
Dye his hair! Give him
the same color as your hair!
We've finished
Are you okay?
Do you like the sides
or should we trim them down?
So you don't like them
Give me this
What did the blow do to him?
The blood vessels in his nose
ruptured from the blow
If he vomits today or tomorrow,
take him to the doctor immediately
I've written down my number
in case you need anything
- Gomaa?
- No, Gama'iya
When I was a child, my mom
used to call me: Sugar
Because I was handsome
- You were what?
- I was handsome
But the sweetness is gone
and the name Gama'iya stayed
- How much do you want?
- Don't bother! Only 50
Rambo
Has he returned?
Not yet
I don't want to return with Rambo
Will you be able to manage?
I'll stay anywhere until morning
Be careful, for my sake
Okay
You don't want to sleep?
Then, I'll sleep
Eat up, Rambo
Just this piece
Congratulations
Thank you
Sorry for showing up without calling you
But I didn't have any place to go
It's okay
I've missed seeing Rambo
Where do you work now?
A security guard
- Security guard?
- Yes
The Society of Egyptian Architects
located in Zamalek
I never noticed it
Where is it located?
It's next to the ice cream shop
where we were supposed to go to last time
When you left, I thought you'd look
for kitchen work as well
Do you feel comfortable there
or was it better here?
There's no difference, it's all work
You don't want to tell me about anything?
Good morning, Mr. Mustafa
Please call a technician
to come today and check the cooler
It's vibrating again
What will you do about Rambo's problem?
Can I leave him with you for just two hours?
I don't know, Hassan
It's okay, I'll find another place for him
No, it's okay
I'll manage, don't worry
Can you help me unload the cans?
Come on, sit down
Rambo
Sit
Don't worry, you're a good boy, right?
Don't worry
You won't be late, will you?
Where is Rambo's toy, Mom?
My sweetheart
At least sit down and catch your breath
I can't do that
I told the man I'd be back in two hours
Will you go
- Open the door, you?
- Don't open it
Open the door!
Open the door, Hassan
I will show you!
Shame on you, Karem!
The house commands respect!
Open the door!
Move away!
You'll knock the door down
Open the door!
So, is that how it's going to be!?
I'm going to get you, Hassan!
Calm down, Mr. Karem
I swear, I'm going to get you!
You can go, Hassan's mom, please
I'm staying stay with you
It's not appropriate
And what he did is appropriate?
Listen, this dog attacked me
and humiliated me in front of my son
and everyone, it bit me in
I won't let it go before
I smash the crap out of its bones
Calm down, man
Hassan is a good guy and he admires you
He will do what you want
and he won't upset you
I want to face this dog, man to man
All this fuss over a dog?
Yes, it must pay for what it did
Then, it's okay, man
You're barking up the right tree!
Hey, what's funny?
- You jerk!
- Calm down, Mr. Karem!
You'll kill him
Mr. Karem, enough!
Can't you see he's mocking me?
- You'll hurt yourself!
- That's enough, boss
Sit over there, sit
He must bring it now
Consider it done
What about the house
he's trying to kick us out of?
That's an easy matter, too
Go on, Hassan, get the dog
He's not around
Where is he, then?
He's at work
Did you leave him with Ali?
Ali is my nephew
He's a solid young man
a real ride-or-die kind of guy
He got him this job
Ali is such an exceptional young man
What will you do now?
Hassan!
What are you doing?
I'm hungry, Mom!
Let me heat it up for you
No, I'll have it cold
This is your uncle Fathi's number
Call him
Your mom's got a heart of stone
She only thinks of me when she's in a jam
I'll cut to the chase
How do you want me to help?
What do you think?
Give him the dog
But he will kill him
It's not like it's one of your family!
It's a rabid dog
that went and bit someone
He's not rabid
I told you, he started the fight
Uncle Fathi
Hello! Welcome, our engineer
Wishing you well!
Same to you
Is it your birthday?
- Yes
- Happy birthday
- Thank you
- You're welcome
Take care
Come on
Have some
I don't want any
Do you know when the last
time I saw you was, Hassan?
It was your baby shower
They held it a month after your birth
Did your mother tell you?
That day, your father was so excited
that he insisted on hiring a belly dancer
Your mother and grandmother
said it was inappropriate
But he was stubborn as a mule
And your late grandmother kept swearing
that if he did that, she wouldn't attend
He then called me and said, "Come, Fathi"
"Come see your mom who's
out to ruin the child from the start"
I left everything I had
in the Gulf and came back for you
All the best to him
or may he rest in peace
He was growing older in age
but his mind was still as little as ever
Get straight to the point
Do you, guys, need money?
We don't need anything
You're a strong man, just like your uncle
I want you to use your head, Hassan
Your mom won't be able to handle
living on the streets at her age
and over silly matters
And if you're that into dogs
get a small puppy and raise it
Or toughen up and have a little child
after you get married
and play with him
Would you like a cigarette?
- And who told you he would harm him?
- He did
It's just because he
bit him in the backside
Go and get the dog
I'll finish the clothes I have here
And we'll go to him together
Do you know anything about him?
Who? Your dad?
Did you come to me for
the dog or for your dad?
These are the recordings
I managed to extract for you
Unfortunately, I couldn't extract the
rest because the tapes are very old
Go ahead, speak up, Hassan
Is it recording, Dad?
Yes
Here you go, sir
Move so I can go wash my hands
Move, let me go wash my hands
That's it, there's no more food
Come here, Rambo
You're a good boy
Stay like this
Sorry for the hassle
Oh my God!
Come in, please
Don't be afraid, he won't hurt you
What's going on here?
This is Hassan, he's my work colleague
Okay, Asmaa
We'll talk later
Did I get you in trouble?
It's not a big deal
So, you disappear all that time
and now you text me
"Where you are, girl? Come out"
and you want me to come running
Is that right?
It's because I'm dumb!
Is something at home bothering you?
Are you upset?
Or did you miss your Zuza?
Who's this beauty?
Look, just take a look
Last time under the bridge we got lucky
Aren't you scared we'll get haunted
here at the cemetery?
No
Why don't we go to the garage?
I don't want any more filth
So it's filthy over there
and right here it's not?
Alright
Come in
It's cold
Come quickly
Yes, close it
It's very cold here
Hold on
let me take off your jacket
I've missed you so much
Stop!
Don't be rough
Okay, take it easy
Easy
What? Is this blood?
Damn it, get off me!
You're the one who's injured
Let me see, what's this?
Hands off!
Where are you going?
What's the matter?
At least, let's go to the hospital
How did you get hurt?
What is it?
Does it hurt?
Let's go to the hospital right away
and find out what this is
Come on, let's head back
Head back? Did you bring me
all the way here to head back now?
Are you going to zip it and get moving
or should I leave without you?
What do you mean "get moving"?
You know what? I'm an idiot
for coming here with you!
Well, Hassan
the rules of the place here
prohibit the presence
of animals altogether
It's just because you sit outside
and your dog is friendly and fun
we made an exception for you
But letting it spend the nights inside?
Sorry, it's not possible
Never mind, sir
I know I've asked a lot of you
Hyenas, did humans really misjudge
and misunderstand them?
Do their societies resemble human societies?
And why has this animal
become disliked by everyone?
Let's start today's journey
But don't forget to subscribe
Hello, Gama'iya
Have you finished?
Okay, I'll be right there
Can you stand in for me
Uncle Mahmoud, for just half an hour?
I promise I won't be late
Thank you, Uncle Mahmoud
What are you doing here?
I took today and tomorrow off
I thought I'd have some fun
and try the ice cream shop here
The place seems quiet and nice
Don't be upset about what happened
in the morning
But the homeowner forbids visits from men
And the girls, my flatmates
don't want to get into trouble
I'm not upset
You've already done me a favor
Were you going back home?
I was going to sort out Rambo's situation
Someone will help me
Would you like me to go with you?
I mean, to help out
If you want to
What is this far place?
- Is the young lady coming along?
- Yes, she is
That guy is not exactly pleasant
Should I leave her here alone?
- And we're two guys with her
- Don't say two!
It's better to leave her here
And why is that?
And why do you want him alone?
As you wish, Miss
Do what you want, follow me
Come on, Rambo
Ahmad, my buddy!
Gama'iya
I don't care
It's your problem
Whatever you say or do is up to you
The missing 200 must be brought to me
You're calling me a thief, Kimo? Alright
Boss
Hey, kid! Why didn't you show up?
Ibliss destroyed the guy's dog
What was the bet amount?
- 2000 pounds
- He had it coming
Maybe he'll stop showing off
Is this him?
Yes, our champion
I'm talking about the dog
I'm talking about the dog, too
- Who's the bride, then?
- She's with me
And the groom?
Our champion
I'm talking about the dog, man
I'm talking about the dog too
Kimo, Emad said if the dog owner
of the next match is late, he'll leave
Let me pass, Nona
Come, come
Hey, Sayed!
Get that out of here
We've got guests
And you, hurry up
They're about to arrive
I'm going out for a cigarette
It's five years old?
What? Five years old?
Yes
- That's good
- Are you going to put him in a fights?
No, it's a local breed
We'll send it to the farm
- What farm?
- The citrus farm
Didn't he want to eat mangoes?
Yes, he likes mangoes
It's a dog farm, little duckling
And what will he do there?
- What's the matter, Gama'iya?
- Forgive him, he's a little anxious
He'll eat, drink, and mate
He'll live like a king
What do you think, Miss?
Talk to me
Will you let your dogs attack him?
Listen, buddy, don't ask too
many questions, rest assured
Local-breed dogs are everywhere
Your dog is safe
and this man is doing you a favor
Hey, man!
Hey, buddy!
I'm talking to you
- What are you doing?
- I'm leaving
Did you bring me into this to insult me?
You're bringing me into this to close a deal!
Why are you tripping?
It's good for both of us
Piss off! Get lost!
I'll pretend this never happened
But don't come to me again
We won't see anything like this, boss
We should have come
when there was electricity
What's the matter, Mr. Karem?
Come in, Winch
Will you knock down all the walls?
Yes, we'll join this side with the garage
Didn't we agree at the coffee shop?
Are you pretending to be dumb?
What's come up now?
I don't want to see you here
starting tomorrow
And I'm not leaving my house
We'll need to rent
a concrete cutter, Mr. Karem
Why?
Can't a sledgehammer get it done?
The demolition workers
are coming in two days
And I'll ask them to throw you
in the nearest trash bin
And you won't get any money from me
Even this worn-out furniture,
I'll sell it and keep the money
Or tell him to bring the dog
and I'll think about it
Where is Thumb? Here I am
Where is Pointer? Here I am
Where is Middle? Here I am
Where is Ring? Here I am
Where is Pinky? Here I am
The bill is 37, sir
I asked you to fill it with only 35
Don't worry about it
It's just two pounds
Move it to the front
I'll bring your change over
Okay, calm down, come over
Hey, Mom, how are you?
I've missed you
I missed you too, my sweetheart
Are you okay?
Tell me, what did you do?
I'm still trying, but don't worry
I'll sort it out soon
Do you think he'll hurt
the dog if he takes him?
Why are you asking?
I'm thinking we should solve
the problem with him rationally
Do you want me to give him Rambo?
I don't want to cause any trouble
Do you think he'll leave us alone
if he takes him?
At least we'll have done
what we needed to do
Will you be able to sleep if
he kills him in front of you?
Will you be able to sleep
if we're thrown out onto the street?
That's what he wanted all along
even before the Rambo issue
But we were standing up to him
And what's new, Mom?
We're still standing up to him
What's new is that everyone
is on his side now
- He won't do anything
- What makes you sure?
Because I won't let him do anything
You won't be able to, Hassan
You won't be able to change his mind
and you won't be able to defend any of us
You'll see, Mom
You'll see
Goodbye
Sit, Rambo
I am glad we were saved
Hassan, you've started to smoke too much
It's bad for your health
Here you go, sir
What is it, Rambo?
You like to eating plain pasta?
What can I get you?
I'll have the 20-pound plate, and you?
I'll have the 20-pound plate, and you?
I'm not hungry, nothing for me
We'll have two 20-pound plates
and one plain pasta
Right away
You have to eat
It's my treat for your birthday
Why don't you make a wish?
Will it really come true?
Give it a try
You have nothing to lose
I made a wish
What was it?
You don't want to say?
Don't say, it's better that way
So it will come true
- Here you go, Miss
- Thank you
Here you go
Enjoy your meal
You're going to stay silent?
What should I say?
Tell me things
There's nothing on my mind
Alright
I'll ask you
Tell me, how do you feel?
I'm okay
Wow! You're so talkative!
Fine, I'll ask you an easier question
What's the best thing
that happened to you today?
Nothing
Not even something small?
What about the worst thing?
That I met my uncle
Why?
I felt like I was standing
in front of my father
May he rest in peace
That's if he is dead
You told me that he died a long time ago
We consider him dead
I don't understand
What do you mean?
All I remember is that he was kind
He loved to tell jokes
and laugh all the time
Whenever he was in a good mood
he used to cook for us
and brag with my mom
that his cooking was better than hers
She used to get so upset
He had a habit
whenever things got tough
he would disappear for
a couple of days and then come back
Whenever I asked my
mom about his whereabouts
she would say he was at work
And I believed her
One time, the couple of days became ten
then a month
then a year
I don't know why
he's been gone for so long
I saw sadness eating away at Mom
The kids in the neighborhood
kept asking me about my father
I kept bugging her
until she told me that had bailed on us
It was the first time I learned
the meaning of bailing out
and probably my first time hearing it
He bailed out on us
I was ten years old back then and
Go on
From then on, it was always tough for us
And it is still tough
No one knows anything about him?
Why are you smiling?
You know, this is the first time
you've told me anything about yourself?
I mean, it's a good thing
Don't turn on the light
so the doorman won't see it
If it's too much trouble
I can sleep at my uncle's
You mean the worst thing
that happened to you?
I'm just kidding
Rambo
Don't make any noise, okay?
"His mom told him
to leave the cat alone"
"He left his school
threw away his books"
"and went to pick a fight with her"
You're getting me into trouble!
But it's okay
Let me see, it's the last one
Come on honey
what do you want to say?
What?
I will sing
- You will sing for Mounir?
- Yes
- Do you love Mounir like your dad?
- No, you sing
Okay, I will sing
something very beautiful
"Everything is being stolen from me"
"The days slip away from my life"
"The light slips away from my pupil"
"And everything"
"around me is calling out for me"
Can you sleep?
"I'm calling out for you"
"I wonder if you can hear me"
I don't want to sleep
Rambo
Tilt your head a bit
Hello, Boss
Listen, I came
to the store but it's closed
Okay, bye
Lift your head up
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you Hassan
Happy birthday to you
Bravo!
These things are for adults
You can't imitate everything Hassan does
You drink this
You can't drink this, no
"Oh, look how beautiful and sweet she is"
"With one look
she hooked me and quietly owned me"
"With one look
she hooked me and quietly owned me"
"Sweet like sugar she is"
"What's going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What's going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What is this beauty?"
"What is this sweetness?"
"What is this beauty?"
"What is this sweetness?"
"What is going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What is going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
It's stuffed, just the way you like it
Thank you
He fell asleep again
He must sleep
He barely slept yesterday
He did not sleep or let me sleep
Won't you eat?
I spoke to someone yesterday
and asked for his help
He told me he would try to help today
Is it someone I know?
Is he your fianc?
I told him you are my coworker
He was off today
but once he heard
he went to talk to his employers
Leave it
I'll sweep it after we finish eating
He seems like a good guy
Are you injured?
It's better to use this
I'll call you at night
to open the door for you
There's no need
Where will you stay?
I'll manage
Again, Hassan?
Thank your fianc
I will find another solution for Rambo
Please stop being childish, Hassan
Hold this, Asmaa
Rambo was tough
They thought he was a pushover
He told them okay
He drew an arrow from behind his back
and blew up their plane
It was such a great movie, Rambo
My father told me,
"You'll love it, Hassouna"
And I did
When we went to the coffee shop
there were a lot of people
and lots of chairs were lined up
He told me that it was just like a cinema
and he'd take me
to the cinema the following time
That day, I ordered milk tea
and he got it for me
Want me to get you milk tea?
A milk tea?
He has called the lady
He's asking you to meet her
at the "Shertle"
- What's the "Shertle"?
- How would I know?
Do you want me to call and ask him?
No, it's fine
Did he tell you where it is?
Yes, I have the location
Wait, I'll send it to you
Did you get it
or you don't have internet?
- I got it
- Good
- Come on, Rambo
- What? Are you going right now?
Yes, I have to go now
Man,
if the boss comes and doesn't find you
he will fire you, and you know it
Cover for me Ali
Alright, this one is for Rambo
Give me a cigarette
Cool
Come on, Rambo
Thursday, December 31, 1998
How old is Hassouna turning, Taf Taf?
Five, knock on wood
Hassouna the clever
You mean "Clever Hassan"?
Just like the fairy tale?
Just like it, my dear
Do you know
where I'm taking you for your birthday?
- Where?
- We're going to eat kebab and kofta
then we'll watch a very good
movie at the coffee shop
Will Mom come with us?
Your mother will eat
with us and then leave
If they saw this beauty at the
coffee shop, they'd abduct us!
Your father is a liar
Hello, come here
Come on, eat up
Do you like the food?
Is it good?
Rambo
And a good actor as well!
I can visit him every day, right?
Of course
Our visiting hours are every morning
You became friends this quickly?
Go on
teach your buddies how to play dead
Our two dogs died
Your dog, the pellet went into his eye
Can I see him?
I think you'd better go for now
Come back in two to three hours
We just need to take the pellet out
and let him wake up a bit
He's there
- The one on the bike?
- Yes
Wait
Quickly
Come on, cross
Hello, how are you?
- How are you, sir?
- I'm okay
This is Hassan
This is my fianc Shafiq
and his daughter Salma
How are you, Hassan?
If we'd known you were coming
we would've postponed the cinema plans
I'm sorry for troubling you
No, man, don't say that
I was going to take the car
back to the villa anyway
It's a good chance to introduce the lady
I'm working for to Asmaa
Is he injured?
- What did you say?
- Is he injured?
Yes, he's injured
Come, let's pet him
Come, don't be afraid
I'm by your side, come on
You're not scared of him?
Look, he has an eye injury
Do it like this, well done
He is very beautiful
What's his name?
What's your name?
His name is Rambo
Hey, Doctor
This is Asmaa
Welcome, our bride
How are you, ma'am?
- Congratulations
- Thank you
This is Hassan, and this is Mr. Rambo
I am very happy that I was able to help
Thank you
Can I visit him from time to time?
Of course, you're welcome
But my husband and I live in Canada
I visit Egypt for one week
every year to see my mother
Don't worry, I'll let you talk to him
via video call whenever you want
Look at you!
You will become a foreigner
They might even start
calling you Mr. Rambo
Why are you sad?
You'll have it all
Colorful balls
lots of green parks
You will be able to run freely
And the food is very delicious, Rambo
Cheap as well
But no one will make you eggs the way I do
Travel and enjoy your life
We might meet again
But don't let the distance
make you forget me
Hello, Mom?
Where are you, sweetheart?
I'm on my way back
Come over to your uncle's home
Did something happen?
Karem kicked us out of the house
Don't be late, sweetheart
See you
I haven't seen you smile in a long time
Hello?
Look from the balcony
Who is it?
I have a surprise for you
What do you want?
Get on with it
You rascal!
My car, you rascal!
Calm down, Mr. Karem!
Quickly
Calm down, Mr. Karem!
- Get away!
- Calm down
Calm down, Mr. Karem, calm down
What's the matter, Hassan?
Are you still going to fight?
Give me that!
Calm down
Do not do it!
Karem!
We don't want any more problems, Hassan
Get out of here, Hassan!
Get out of here!
Go ahead, speak up, Hassan
Go on, speak up
What do you want to say?
I will sing
- You will sing for Mounir?
- Yes
Do you love Mounir like dad?
No, you sing
Okay, I will sing
something very beautiful
"Everything is being stolen from me"
"The days slip away from my life"
"The light slips away from my pupil"
"And everything"
"around me is calling out for me"
"I am calling out for you"
"I wonder if you can hear me"
"Where are you?"
"Between me and you
sorrows that shall pass"
"Between me and you
days that shall be over"
"Lemon trees have withered on the ground"
"Lemon trees have withered on the ground"
I tricked you, you goofball!
Good boy!
Are you a good boy? Or not?
Do you know how much salt to add?
Go get the potato bag from outside
and I'll give you a bite
Don't act like you don't understand, Rambo
Go get the potato bag
You won't obey to me at all?
You won't obey?
Don't act stupid
Get the potato bag
Don't play dead with me I taught
you that trick, you can't fool me!
How did you find the eggs?
You mean the ones lacking salt?
Yes, the ones lacking salt
I was going to fry some potatoes too
But as usual
I cut away half the potato when I peel it
What did you discuss with the lawyer?
He reassured me
He told me not to worry
as long as we had the contract
I'm not sure, Mom, I feel like this lawsuit
is only going to make him more stubborn
Let him be stubborn
or do whatever he wants
Eat up, sweetheart
He seems to like the bland eggs
He's my little darling
He'd eat anything I give him
Not like you
You're such a well-mannered little boy
Don't let anyone spoil you
Is that so? Okay
Just so you know, you don't deserve
what I had prepared for you
I had plans to take you out in two days
to get tasty food
and celebrate your birthday
No, let's not go out
Just make us a delicious cake
and a cup of milk tea
and let's watch the movie "The Ogre"
Like every year?
Okay then, dear
We still have last year's cake anyway
Hold this, hold it
I'm telling you let's go out!
Did you come to ask my permission before
dragging me to court? I don't get it
We want to resolve this matter peacefully
but you don't
You're talking as if I was trying
to scam you!
You're the one who likes to create drama
- Calm down, Mr. Karem
- Hold on, Hassan
You want to kick us out of the apartment
for only 30,000 pounds!
- Isn't this scamming?
- Dad
Take this to your mother
Tell her to be careful,
that red stain is blood
Okay
The money isn't enough to buy a hen house
That's your problem
I don't care if it gets you
a hen house or a pigsty
You need to move out within a month
We'll bring in some machines
and we'll knock down some walls
There's so much to do
and we'll knock down some walls
There's so much to do
I've been patient with you
for two months already
What's the matter, Mr. Karem?
- Did he tell you?
- He didn't tell me anything
But his brother called and said
he was in the hospital in critical condition
- They might press charges against you
- And who is stopping them?
- They have respect for me
- Respect?
Does that lowlife think he can
exploit us while I stand by and watch?
I won't keep cleaning after you at my age
Calm down, relax
There are people around
Go away
Let it be known that I've lived in
this house before you were born
And if your late father were alive
he wouldn't approve of this
Take a look outside for a moment
You'll see that this is now called
"Karem's Garage"
And this Karem's house
And what Karem says will be done
If you're in love with my dad, go to him
I'm not going anywhere
You're going to have
to drag my dead body out of here
You'll leave it willingly
Come on, Hassan
We'll see
Come on, Hassan
Did you find the contract?
I found it
"Dad and Hassan"
Keep her occupied until I get back to you
Come on, come here
No, no
you'll knock me over, you goofball!
Are you a silly boy?
That's enough, Rambo
Take this
Let's leave, Mom
Where will we go?
This is our home
and we'll never give it up
You'll find a piece of chicken
for Rambo next to your food
You're giving up your share yet again?
You're not wearing an undershirt again?
It suffocates me
- Wear it
- Alright
- Come on
- And you, wear your helmet!
Go and get your helmet
Come on, Rambo
Leave me this jacket on your day off
- It looks shabby, it needs fixing
- Okay
- Good morning, Abu Kareem
- Good morning
A pack of Box cigarettes
A pack Red, Mahmoud
That image again!
All the packs
in the parcel have this image
Thank you, Abu Kareem
Come on, Rambo
- Hello
- Hello
I want to convert these
tapes to files on my phone
Let me see them
Okay, leave me your number
When I'm done
I'll text you on WhatsApp
Would you like to try it, Hassan?
No, thank you, sir
Why not? The new year's coming up
and everyone will be celebrating
Try it
Start with small shots
and top it off with soda
Top it off how?
Pour a little of this
and fill the rest with soda
Hold on, hold on
It tastes awful, Rambo
Got it all going on, buddy!
Give me a cigarette
- I don't have any
- I can see it, you liar!
Go and buy them like everyone does
Don't be like that!
I'm dying to know what you're doing to him
Who do you mean?
The one who's babying you
I've been working with him for three years
he hasn't even offered me a juice box
Don't speak ill of him
he's a respectable man
Respectable? You're the respectable one
Enjoy your meal, Rambo!
What did you do?
What did you do?
Go up to the house
Hey, Hassan!
You're passing by without saying hi
or paying me any mind
Is that okay?
I didn't notice, Mr. Karem
But I have a bone to pick with you
This isn't the first
time you have ignored me
Am I invisible?
Maybe I smell bad! Do I smell bad?
Your smell is fine, mister
Okay then
Respect me
How?
Listen
You'll go over there
you'll come back and greet me
and I'll pretend that I didn't notice
Go on, Hassan
Go on
Here I am, not noticing
Hello, Mr. Karem
Not good enough, Hassan
You're saying it half-heatedly
Let's try that again
You will go over to that door
then you'll come towards me
and do so standing tall and looking good
And put a big smile on your face
And greet me
Go on, Hassan
Go on, Hassan
How are you, Ahmed?
Hello, Mr. Karem
This time it's good
Abu Ali
My dear
How are you, man?
My mother needs me, man, stop
That's enough
Let me go!
- You knocked me over?
- I didn't
- Did your mother push you to do that?
- My mother has nothing to do with it!
And your dog pissed on my car!
I'll clean it up
This garage will grow
It'll grow whether
your family likes it or not!
You think you'll outsmart me?
By tomorrow, you need to get out!
Get well soon
Look, I'm standing on my feet
May you be well
Hello, is anyone here?
What's the matter?
My dog is injured and bleeding
There's no one here
They've all left
Isn't there any clinic
or hospital nearby, sir?
Wait
You'll be fine
Welcome, my man
Thank you, Mr. Gama'iya
How are you? I've missed you
Did you get the medication?
- Do you need help?
- Thank you, my man
- Where's the doctor?
- Don't worry
Am I not enough for you?
Aren't you a barber?
He's a former nurse who's left
the hospital a few months ago, sir
- No, I'm leaving
- As you like
- Don't waste our time!
- Open the door
No one's available to treat him now
and the dog is bleeding
Do you need a hot towel?
Cold towel? You know
Dye his hair! Give him
the same color as your hair!
We've finished
Are you okay?
Do you like the sides
or should we trim them down?
So you don't like them
Give me this
What did the blow do to him?
The blood vessels in his nose
ruptured from the blow
If he vomits today or tomorrow,
take him to the doctor immediately
I've written down my number
in case you need anything
- Gomaa?
- No, Gama'iya
When I was a child, my mom
used to call me: Sugar
Because I was handsome
- You were what?
- I was handsome
But the sweetness is gone
and the name Gama'iya stayed
- How much do you want?
- Don't bother! Only 50
Rambo
Has he returned?
Not yet
I don't want to return with Rambo
Will you be able to manage?
I'll stay anywhere until morning
Be careful, for my sake
Okay
You don't want to sleep?
Then, I'll sleep
Eat up, Rambo
Just this piece
Congratulations
Thank you
Sorry for showing up without calling you
But I didn't have any place to go
It's okay
I've missed seeing Rambo
Where do you work now?
A security guard
- Security guard?
- Yes
The Society of Egyptian Architects
located in Zamalek
I never noticed it
Where is it located?
It's next to the ice cream shop
where we were supposed to go to last time
When you left, I thought you'd look
for kitchen work as well
Do you feel comfortable there
or was it better here?
There's no difference, it's all work
You don't want to tell me about anything?
Good morning, Mr. Mustafa
Please call a technician
to come today and check the cooler
It's vibrating again
What will you do about Rambo's problem?
Can I leave him with you for just two hours?
I don't know, Hassan
It's okay, I'll find another place for him
No, it's okay
I'll manage, don't worry
Can you help me unload the cans?
Come on, sit down
Rambo
Sit
Don't worry, you're a good boy, right?
Don't worry
You won't be late, will you?
Where is Rambo's toy, Mom?
My sweetheart
At least sit down and catch your breath
I can't do that
I told the man I'd be back in two hours
Will you go
- Open the door, you?
- Don't open it
Open the door!
Open the door, Hassan
I will show you!
Shame on you, Karem!
The house commands respect!
Open the door!
Move away!
You'll knock the door down
Open the door!
So, is that how it's going to be!?
I'm going to get you, Hassan!
Calm down, Mr. Karem
I swear, I'm going to get you!
You can go, Hassan's mom, please
I'm staying stay with you
It's not appropriate
And what he did is appropriate?
Listen, this dog attacked me
and humiliated me in front of my son
and everyone, it bit me in
I won't let it go before
I smash the crap out of its bones
Calm down, man
Hassan is a good guy and he admires you
He will do what you want
and he won't upset you
I want to face this dog, man to man
All this fuss over a dog?
Yes, it must pay for what it did
Then, it's okay, man
You're barking up the right tree!
Hey, what's funny?
- You jerk!
- Calm down, Mr. Karem!
You'll kill him
Mr. Karem, enough!
Can't you see he's mocking me?
- You'll hurt yourself!
- That's enough, boss
Sit over there, sit
He must bring it now
Consider it done
What about the house
he's trying to kick us out of?
That's an easy matter, too
Go on, Hassan, get the dog
He's not around
Where is he, then?
He's at work
Did you leave him with Ali?
Ali is my nephew
He's a solid young man
a real ride-or-die kind of guy
He got him this job
Ali is such an exceptional young man
What will you do now?
Hassan!
What are you doing?
I'm hungry, Mom!
Let me heat it up for you
No, I'll have it cold
This is your uncle Fathi's number
Call him
Your mom's got a heart of stone
She only thinks of me when she's in a jam
I'll cut to the chase
How do you want me to help?
What do you think?
Give him the dog
But he will kill him
It's not like it's one of your family!
It's a rabid dog
that went and bit someone
He's not rabid
I told you, he started the fight
Uncle Fathi
Hello! Welcome, our engineer
Wishing you well!
Same to you
Is it your birthday?
- Yes
- Happy birthday
- Thank you
- You're welcome
Take care
Come on
Have some
I don't want any
Do you know when the last
time I saw you was, Hassan?
It was your baby shower
They held it a month after your birth
Did your mother tell you?
That day, your father was so excited
that he insisted on hiring a belly dancer
Your mother and grandmother
said it was inappropriate
But he was stubborn as a mule
And your late grandmother kept swearing
that if he did that, she wouldn't attend
He then called me and said, "Come, Fathi"
"Come see your mom who's
out to ruin the child from the start"
I left everything I had
in the Gulf and came back for you
All the best to him
or may he rest in peace
He was growing older in age
but his mind was still as little as ever
Get straight to the point
Do you, guys, need money?
We don't need anything
You're a strong man, just like your uncle
I want you to use your head, Hassan
Your mom won't be able to handle
living on the streets at her age
and over silly matters
And if you're that into dogs
get a small puppy and raise it
Or toughen up and have a little child
after you get married
and play with him
Would you like a cigarette?
- And who told you he would harm him?
- He did
It's just because he
bit him in the backside
Go and get the dog
I'll finish the clothes I have here
And we'll go to him together
Do you know anything about him?
Who? Your dad?
Did you come to me for
the dog or for your dad?
These are the recordings
I managed to extract for you
Unfortunately, I couldn't extract the
rest because the tapes are very old
Go ahead, speak up, Hassan
Is it recording, Dad?
Yes
Here you go, sir
Move so I can go wash my hands
Move, let me go wash my hands
That's it, there's no more food
Come here, Rambo
You're a good boy
Stay like this
Sorry for the hassle
Oh my God!
Come in, please
Don't be afraid, he won't hurt you
What's going on here?
This is Hassan, he's my work colleague
Okay, Asmaa
We'll talk later
Did I get you in trouble?
It's not a big deal
So, you disappear all that time
and now you text me
"Where you are, girl? Come out"
and you want me to come running
Is that right?
It's because I'm dumb!
Is something at home bothering you?
Are you upset?
Or did you miss your Zuza?
Who's this beauty?
Look, just take a look
Last time under the bridge we got lucky
Aren't you scared we'll get haunted
here at the cemetery?
No
Why don't we go to the garage?
I don't want any more filth
So it's filthy over there
and right here it's not?
Alright
Come in
It's cold
Come quickly
Yes, close it
It's very cold here
Hold on
let me take off your jacket
I've missed you so much
Stop!
Don't be rough
Okay, take it easy
Easy
What? Is this blood?
Damn it, get off me!
You're the one who's injured
Let me see, what's this?
Hands off!
Where are you going?
What's the matter?
At least, let's go to the hospital
How did you get hurt?
What is it?
Does it hurt?
Let's go to the hospital right away
and find out what this is
Come on, let's head back
Head back? Did you bring me
all the way here to head back now?
Are you going to zip it and get moving
or should I leave without you?
What do you mean "get moving"?
You know what? I'm an idiot
for coming here with you!
Well, Hassan
the rules of the place here
prohibit the presence
of animals altogether
It's just because you sit outside
and your dog is friendly and fun
we made an exception for you
But letting it spend the nights inside?
Sorry, it's not possible
Never mind, sir
I know I've asked a lot of you
Hyenas, did humans really misjudge
and misunderstand them?
Do their societies resemble human societies?
And why has this animal
become disliked by everyone?
Let's start today's journey
But don't forget to subscribe
Hello, Gama'iya
Have you finished?
Okay, I'll be right there
Can you stand in for me
Uncle Mahmoud, for just half an hour?
I promise I won't be late
Thank you, Uncle Mahmoud
What are you doing here?
I took today and tomorrow off
I thought I'd have some fun
and try the ice cream shop here
The place seems quiet and nice
Don't be upset about what happened
in the morning
But the homeowner forbids visits from men
And the girls, my flatmates
don't want to get into trouble
I'm not upset
You've already done me a favor
Were you going back home?
I was going to sort out Rambo's situation
Someone will help me
Would you like me to go with you?
I mean, to help out
If you want to
What is this far place?
- Is the young lady coming along?
- Yes, she is
That guy is not exactly pleasant
Should I leave her here alone?
- And we're two guys with her
- Don't say two!
It's better to leave her here
And why is that?
And why do you want him alone?
As you wish, Miss
Do what you want, follow me
Come on, Rambo
Ahmad, my buddy!
Gama'iya
I don't care
It's your problem
Whatever you say or do is up to you
The missing 200 must be brought to me
You're calling me a thief, Kimo? Alright
Boss
Hey, kid! Why didn't you show up?
Ibliss destroyed the guy's dog
What was the bet amount?
- 2000 pounds
- He had it coming
Maybe he'll stop showing off
Is this him?
Yes, our champion
I'm talking about the dog
I'm talking about the dog, too
- Who's the bride, then?
- She's with me
And the groom?
Our champion
I'm talking about the dog, man
I'm talking about the dog too
Kimo, Emad said if the dog owner
of the next match is late, he'll leave
Let me pass, Nona
Come, come
Hey, Sayed!
Get that out of here
We've got guests
And you, hurry up
They're about to arrive
I'm going out for a cigarette
It's five years old?
What? Five years old?
Yes
- That's good
- Are you going to put him in a fights?
No, it's a local breed
We'll send it to the farm
- What farm?
- The citrus farm
Didn't he want to eat mangoes?
Yes, he likes mangoes
It's a dog farm, little duckling
And what will he do there?
- What's the matter, Gama'iya?
- Forgive him, he's a little anxious
He'll eat, drink, and mate
He'll live like a king
What do you think, Miss?
Talk to me
Will you let your dogs attack him?
Listen, buddy, don't ask too
many questions, rest assured
Local-breed dogs are everywhere
Your dog is safe
and this man is doing you a favor
Hey, man!
Hey, buddy!
I'm talking to you
- What are you doing?
- I'm leaving
Did you bring me into this to insult me?
You're bringing me into this to close a deal!
Why are you tripping?
It's good for both of us
Piss off! Get lost!
I'll pretend this never happened
But don't come to me again
We won't see anything like this, boss
We should have come
when there was electricity
What's the matter, Mr. Karem?
Come in, Winch
Will you knock down all the walls?
Yes, we'll join this side with the garage
Didn't we agree at the coffee shop?
Are you pretending to be dumb?
What's come up now?
I don't want to see you here
starting tomorrow
And I'm not leaving my house
We'll need to rent
a concrete cutter, Mr. Karem
Why?
Can't a sledgehammer get it done?
The demolition workers
are coming in two days
And I'll ask them to throw you
in the nearest trash bin
And you won't get any money from me
Even this worn-out furniture,
I'll sell it and keep the money
Or tell him to bring the dog
and I'll think about it
Where is Thumb? Here I am
Where is Pointer? Here I am
Where is Middle? Here I am
Where is Ring? Here I am
Where is Pinky? Here I am
The bill is 37, sir
I asked you to fill it with only 35
Don't worry about it
It's just two pounds
Move it to the front
I'll bring your change over
Okay, calm down, come over
Hey, Mom, how are you?
I've missed you
I missed you too, my sweetheart
Are you okay?
Tell me, what did you do?
I'm still trying, but don't worry
I'll sort it out soon
Do you think he'll hurt
the dog if he takes him?
Why are you asking?
I'm thinking we should solve
the problem with him rationally
Do you want me to give him Rambo?
I don't want to cause any trouble
Do you think he'll leave us alone
if he takes him?
At least we'll have done
what we needed to do
Will you be able to sleep if
he kills him in front of you?
Will you be able to sleep
if we're thrown out onto the street?
That's what he wanted all along
even before the Rambo issue
But we were standing up to him
And what's new, Mom?
We're still standing up to him
What's new is that everyone
is on his side now
- He won't do anything
- What makes you sure?
Because I won't let him do anything
You won't be able to, Hassan
You won't be able to change his mind
and you won't be able to defend any of us
You'll see, Mom
You'll see
Goodbye
Sit, Rambo
I am glad we were saved
Hassan, you've started to smoke too much
It's bad for your health
Here you go, sir
What is it, Rambo?
You like to eating plain pasta?
What can I get you?
I'll have the 20-pound plate, and you?
I'll have the 20-pound plate, and you?
I'm not hungry, nothing for me
We'll have two 20-pound plates
and one plain pasta
Right away
You have to eat
It's my treat for your birthday
Why don't you make a wish?
Will it really come true?
Give it a try
You have nothing to lose
I made a wish
What was it?
You don't want to say?
Don't say, it's better that way
So it will come true
- Here you go, Miss
- Thank you
Here you go
Enjoy your meal
You're going to stay silent?
What should I say?
Tell me things
There's nothing on my mind
Alright
I'll ask you
Tell me, how do you feel?
I'm okay
Wow! You're so talkative!
Fine, I'll ask you an easier question
What's the best thing
that happened to you today?
Nothing
Not even something small?
What about the worst thing?
That I met my uncle
Why?
I felt like I was standing
in front of my father
May he rest in peace
That's if he is dead
You told me that he died a long time ago
We consider him dead
I don't understand
What do you mean?
All I remember is that he was kind
He loved to tell jokes
and laugh all the time
Whenever he was in a good mood
he used to cook for us
and brag with my mom
that his cooking was better than hers
She used to get so upset
He had a habit
whenever things got tough
he would disappear for
a couple of days and then come back
Whenever I asked my
mom about his whereabouts
she would say he was at work
And I believed her
One time, the couple of days became ten
then a month
then a year
I don't know why
he's been gone for so long
I saw sadness eating away at Mom
The kids in the neighborhood
kept asking me about my father
I kept bugging her
until she told me that had bailed on us
It was the first time I learned
the meaning of bailing out
and probably my first time hearing it
He bailed out on us
I was ten years old back then and
Go on
From then on, it was always tough for us
And it is still tough
No one knows anything about him?
Why are you smiling?
You know, this is the first time
you've told me anything about yourself?
I mean, it's a good thing
Don't turn on the light
so the doorman won't see it
If it's too much trouble
I can sleep at my uncle's
You mean the worst thing
that happened to you?
I'm just kidding
Rambo
Don't make any noise, okay?
"His mom told him
to leave the cat alone"
"He left his school
threw away his books"
"and went to pick a fight with her"
You're getting me into trouble!
But it's okay
Let me see, it's the last one
Come on honey
what do you want to say?
What?
I will sing
- You will sing for Mounir?
- Yes
- Do you love Mounir like your dad?
- No, you sing
Okay, I will sing
something very beautiful
"Everything is being stolen from me"
"The days slip away from my life"
"The light slips away from my pupil"
"And everything"
"around me is calling out for me"
Can you sleep?
"I'm calling out for you"
"I wonder if you can hear me"
I don't want to sleep
Rambo
Tilt your head a bit
Hello, Boss
Listen, I came
to the store but it's closed
Okay, bye
Lift your head up
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you Hassan
Happy birthday to you
Bravo!
These things are for adults
You can't imitate everything Hassan does
You drink this
You can't drink this, no
"Oh, look how beautiful and sweet she is"
"With one look
she hooked me and quietly owned me"
"With one look
she hooked me and quietly owned me"
"Sweet like sugar she is"
"What's going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What's going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What is this beauty?"
"What is this sweetness?"
"What is this beauty?"
"What is this sweetness?"
"What is going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
"What is going on?"
"What is this I'm seeing?"
It's stuffed, just the way you like it
Thank you
He fell asleep again
He must sleep
He barely slept yesterday
He did not sleep or let me sleep
Won't you eat?
I spoke to someone yesterday
and asked for his help
He told me he would try to help today
Is it someone I know?
Is he your fianc?
I told him you are my coworker
He was off today
but once he heard
he went to talk to his employers
Leave it
I'll sweep it after we finish eating
He seems like a good guy
Are you injured?
It's better to use this
I'll call you at night
to open the door for you
There's no need
Where will you stay?
I'll manage
Again, Hassan?
Thank your fianc
I will find another solution for Rambo
Please stop being childish, Hassan
Hold this, Asmaa
Rambo was tough
They thought he was a pushover
He told them okay
He drew an arrow from behind his back
and blew up their plane
It was such a great movie, Rambo
My father told me,
"You'll love it, Hassouna"
And I did
When we went to the coffee shop
there were a lot of people
and lots of chairs were lined up
He told me that it was just like a cinema
and he'd take me
to the cinema the following time
That day, I ordered milk tea
and he got it for me
Want me to get you milk tea?
A milk tea?
He has called the lady
He's asking you to meet her
at the "Shertle"
- What's the "Shertle"?
- How would I know?
Do you want me to call and ask him?
No, it's fine
Did he tell you where it is?
Yes, I have the location
Wait, I'll send it to you
Did you get it
or you don't have internet?
- I got it
- Good
- Come on, Rambo
- What? Are you going right now?
Yes, I have to go now
Man,
if the boss comes and doesn't find you
he will fire you, and you know it
Cover for me Ali
Alright, this one is for Rambo
Give me a cigarette
Cool
Come on, Rambo
Thursday, December 31, 1998
How old is Hassouna turning, Taf Taf?
Five, knock on wood
Hassouna the clever
You mean "Clever Hassan"?
Just like the fairy tale?
Just like it, my dear
Do you know
where I'm taking you for your birthday?
- Where?
- We're going to eat kebab and kofta
then we'll watch a very good
movie at the coffee shop
Will Mom come with us?
Your mother will eat
with us and then leave
If they saw this beauty at the
coffee shop, they'd abduct us!
Your father is a liar
Hello, come here
Come on, eat up
Do you like the food?
Is it good?
Rambo
And a good actor as well!
I can visit him every day, right?
Of course
Our visiting hours are every morning
You became friends this quickly?
Go on
teach your buddies how to play dead
Our two dogs died
Your dog, the pellet went into his eye
Can I see him?
I think you'd better go for now
Come back in two to three hours
We just need to take the pellet out
and let him wake up a bit
He's there
- The one on the bike?
- Yes
Wait
Quickly
Come on, cross
Hello, how are you?
- How are you, sir?
- I'm okay
This is Hassan
This is my fianc Shafiq
and his daughter Salma
How are you, Hassan?
If we'd known you were coming
we would've postponed the cinema plans
I'm sorry for troubling you
No, man, don't say that
I was going to take the car
back to the villa anyway
It's a good chance to introduce the lady
I'm working for to Asmaa
Is he injured?
- What did you say?
- Is he injured?
Yes, he's injured
Come, let's pet him
Come, don't be afraid
I'm by your side, come on
You're not scared of him?
Look, he has an eye injury
Do it like this, well done
He is very beautiful
What's his name?
What's your name?
His name is Rambo
Hey, Doctor
This is Asmaa
Welcome, our bride
How are you, ma'am?
- Congratulations
- Thank you
This is Hassan, and this is Mr. Rambo
I am very happy that I was able to help
Thank you
Can I visit him from time to time?
Of course, you're welcome
But my husband and I live in Canada
I visit Egypt for one week
every year to see my mother
Don't worry, I'll let you talk to him
via video call whenever you want
Look at you!
You will become a foreigner
They might even start
calling you Mr. Rambo
Why are you sad?
You'll have it all
Colorful balls
lots of green parks
You will be able to run freely
And the food is very delicious, Rambo
Cheap as well
But no one will make you eggs the way I do
Travel and enjoy your life
We might meet again
But don't let the distance
make you forget me
Hello, Mom?
Where are you, sweetheart?
I'm on my way back
Come over to your uncle's home
Did something happen?
Karem kicked us out of the house
Don't be late, sweetheart
See you
I haven't seen you smile in a long time
Hello?
Look from the balcony
Who is it?
I have a surprise for you
What do you want?
Get on with it
You rascal!
My car, you rascal!
Calm down, Mr. Karem!
Quickly
Calm down, Mr. Karem!
- Get away!
- Calm down
Calm down, Mr. Karem, calm down
What's the matter, Hassan?
Are you still going to fight?
Give me that!
Calm down
Do not do it!
Karem!
We don't want any more problems, Hassan
Get out of here, Hassan!
Get out of here!
Go ahead, speak up, Hassan
Go on, speak up
What do you want to say?
I will sing
- You will sing for Mounir?
- Yes
Do you love Mounir like dad?
No, you sing
Okay, I will sing
something very beautiful
"Everything is being stolen from me"
"The days slip away from my life"
"The light slips away from my pupil"
"And everything"
"around me is calling out for me"
"I am calling out for you"
"I wonder if you can hear me"
"Where are you?"
"Between me and you
sorrows that shall pass"
"Between me and you
days that shall be over"
"Lemon trees have withered on the ground"
"Lemon trees have withered on the ground"
