Ayaz! Dad, where are you? Dad, my beloved dad. Ayaz! Ayaz! Ayaz! Dad, where are you? What’s wrong with you? Stop getting on my nerves. Get up. I wish you'd died like the rest of them and left me in peace. Come on, get up, I hope you die like them. ( Ardeshir Nejati ) Uncle Ardeshir told me he's not going to come back anymore. Ayaz! Grandpa! Grandpa! Go, go, go. Go, go, go. Grab it! Take his leg! Grab his leg! Don’t just stare at me! Hold on to it tightly. In the name of God. Grab on to it! Don’t move! Damn you humans! It's all infected, Aargh! Grab on to it tightly. I saw it. What a hunt! Come on Help me! If we’re lucky, there won’t be a snake in his stomach. No other drug can cure this pain better than boar’s stomach. Take the cloth off his leg. You've got the fate worse than death! Ebrahim, I’ve brought these drugs for Ayaz, rub it on his legs, hope it makes it all better soon. Are you fine, Ebrahim? How’s everything going? Not bad. You’re not going to Boosher any more, are you? Why bother going to Booshehr? Whoever I had is either on the ground or under ground, Ebrahim, I don't know what you've got in that village that you just won't let it go. Here we’ve got a couple of rooms, come here and live in one of them. Auntie, you know Ayaz better than anyone. He is so stubborn. No. Don't take me away from here. Toulou Khan asks you to provide him a descriptive account of the patient. A descriptive account?! It means what his problem is and what caused it? Actually, a year ago, my grandfather, Ayaz, was bringing my uncle Ardeshir’s wife home with his minibus. On the way back, the minibus fell down the valley. All the passengers were killed. my dad, my mum, my sister, my grandmother, who was Ayaz’s wife. It was all his fault. He was the driver. Since then he hasn’t said a word. A while ago, I was passing by in the desert, where I saw him fallen on the ground, I took him to the hospital. They said he was paralysed from the waist down, I brought him home. A couple of times he tried to strangle me. Now I drugged him to be able to bring him to you. Toulou Khan knows the reason why. Which is? His family’s death. I knew that already! Don’t be a smartass in front of Toulou Khan, you rude! Aren't you ashamed! Now what are we supposed to do? Toulou Khan asks if you saw anything suspicious. Everything is suspicious, but during night some strange noises are heard around the house. Oh no! Toulou Khan says he’s possessed. Possessed! What should we do now? Toulou Khan says we must do a ritual for him. Away, away! Go away, demons! Ayaz! Ayaz! What’s wrong? Are you in pain? Are you hungry? Do you want some water? Should I go and fetch you some? Grandpa? I’m talking to you. What is it? What an unfortunate fate he's got! Ebrahim, you’re not that young so I can advise you, nor old enough to have some life experience. Narges is my daughter, the light of my life. Don’t you think I’m tired of her. You’re my nephew, I love you just like my own child. Marry her and bring her to this house so the death and misfortune leave here. We old ones don't talk in vain. God is the kindest. Ebrahim! I’m not talking to the wall. Don't be afraid. It’s Ok, it’s nothing, it’s gone, it’s gone. Ebrahim! Ebrahim! What? I want to go to see my mother for a couple of days. I miss her. Ok, I’ll take you tomorrow. Narges, come. What is it? I’ll give you the testimony and you repeat after me, Ayaz: I testify that there is no god but God, and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger, Say God is unique and Muhammad is His prophet Imam Ali is the wali (friend) of God. God is just and His prophet is right. Be afraid of the first night of the grave. Be afraid of the darkness and loneliness of the grave. Who’s the first Imam who comes to protect you? Imam Ali. ( Prayers for the dying ) Oh God, the generous God, may your mercy be upon us. You are all merciful. Writer and Director Hadi Mohaghegh Co-writer Saber Mohammadi Producer Seyyed Reza Mohaghegh .
