Ahmad don't spill it on the cooker
No I'm careful
Right after
The sugar, what do we add?
Saffron, I'm washing my hands
- Don't! Stop it - I won't
- How much? - Two teaspoons
- Along with saffron - My mum sent cherry pickles
- You want rhubarbs? - No thanks
None of them broke
Thank god, Leila
- Don't forget I took care of them too - She sent a lot of pickles
- Pistachios - How many days has it been Ahmad?
- Five days - No 6 months and five days
- You're counting from the engagement - I forgot we've no pistachios
- Should we add raisins? - Raisins?
Yeah it'll be raisin ice cream
Not a lot
It looks good
- Is this you? - Yes
You've changed a lot
- Of course he'd look like me - No Amirali will look like me
No he'll look like me give me some of the ice cream
- It needs more sugar - OK we'll add more sugar
- Don't Ahmad - My hands are tired
- Don't - I didn't do anything
Please Ahmad
I'm craving something
Can I tell you Ahmad?
- Hi - What?
Look at the bill
Do I use this much electricity?
Don't you know anyone who could charge us less?
I'll be more than happy to pay my share for the 5 days
You know what I mean, like ask someone to charge us less
It's the readings we can't change them
- I'm off - I like you a lot
You're very different to others
Thank you, I'll be off
Do a little reading for me at least
Sure I can ask my friend and let you know tonight
I need to go, bye
Hi
- One second - Thanks sir, you'll get dust on you
That's the highest level of faith
Being a good muslim is this
You should trust him, hi
Once you have faith it's like you're connected
He'll switch it on when needs be it's out of our control
He'll turn it on himself and you've already done your part
Don't you worry
End it
Why is this here? Come on quick
- Did you finish downstairs? - I did
- Thank you, good day - One second
- Hi - Hi, good day
Bye
How many times do I have to say? I don't even want you to get a diploma
I only have 4 months after the pregnancy to take the entrance exam
Sir!
- I'll show you - Ahmad stop
Idiot
I'm sorry
Are you okay?
Here you go
Are you crying again?
Being a mother is real hard Ahmad
Move over I'm watching some men are terrible
- Thanks! - I meant others
- What happened to the food - It's getting ready
You've seen this ten times
I'm feeling full now
I wish you'd asked for something easier you can't trust instructions of TV
You should've called your mother
Asked her about it, it's difficult now
Here you go, stop watching this
- Don't turn it off - My son doesn't want to watch sad movies
- Is this it? - The rest got burnt
- Take Karim's food - Let me eat a little
- Come on - I'll have one spoonful and go
Every time you say that I get scared
I crave something
I think if his daughter gets back Karim won't be alone, right?
Hopefully
I'll cool down if I go faster
It's dangerous my son will be afraid
Ahmad isn't this bad?
- I'm a little shy - No one is here
Your cravings are normal
Thank you!
Don't eat any
- Are they earrings? - Don't open it yet Leila
No it sounds like a ring
You bought it for Amirali? It's nice
Thanks
I wish you'd want something warm
Like soup
Beetroot
Or green beans why ice cream?
No he hasn't moved at all today
What was Zinat's granchild called?
Hi
- Hi - How are you?
- Thanks - You can't turn it on?
Could you sit behind the wheel please
The doctor said to have your pills on time I'll be worried sick
Don't let it get worse
I could tell it just needed a push thanks
You're welcome
The car batteries are from China they don't work after a week
- Your daughter seemed upset - Don't take it to heart
The young ones always have something to say
Yes
- Sorry - Thanks
Could you hold this please
- Do you know anyone who could help? - Help?
Sorry
- Is it a court order? - Yes
No I don't know anyone in courts
- All clergies have connections - I don't
But I'd do anything I can
Stop it!
Sit here or you'll get hit
Don't cry, don't touch your face your hands aren't clean
Here
Stop it
Sit down, finally!
- You've been gone for hours - It was busy
What took you so long? Here
He keeps crying and this one keeps kicking
They said one child is enough
Then they said they'd pay for every child. They never did.
Now there's a new billboard saying kids make life beautiful
Doesn't life cost money to them?
- Take my seat - Thanks
God bless you
Here you go
- Leila Moeini's husband - I'm here
- Are you her husband? - I am. Is there something wrong?
The prescription was for a month ago
And you've just brought your wife in now?
Yes I just got her insurance last week is there something wrong?
She should've been under supervision ages ago
She has triplets and you took your time bringing her in?
Triplets sir!
Come inside and shut the door
There you go! Your life is beautiful now see what we went through
Here's your third daughter
She's petite like her mother
They should start moving soon
You should rest
Otherwise you'll have an early delivery
You're sure of this?
Here are the heartbeats
I think they're saying we love you mum
Right sir?
If those happy tears, fine
Otherwise you shouldn't cry
Thank you doctor
To be honest I didn't want to mention it to her
The third baby isn't doing as well as the other two
- What do you mean doctor? - I mean
Some other doctor might have aborted her but
I can't do it
You know what son?
Women should feel ok during pregnancy do you understand?
She should just be taken care of OK?
- You want me to get a cab Leila? - No thanks
As you wish
Thank god the doctor said the results look good
I feel better
Mum said these flowers grow faster
See how he insisted to count us as three for the house contract?
- Now we're five, what do we do? - He's sound, he wouldn't kick us out
- It's so good for the flowers - Yeah
- Are you in pain? - Don't touch me
What can I do? Leila hold on we're on our way
We'll get to hospital
My dear, get up
- Hi - Hi
- What's wrong? - Could you help please?
- To take her to hospital - Yeah I'll drive you
- I can handle it - Thanks
Come on
Get up, careful
Hold onto here, step up
You're still crying
The doctor said you're fine
Were you in some sort of rush to get married?
Do you not love your husband?
- I went for an ultrasound - Right
I'm having triplets
Really?
3 kids?
- Here you go ma'am - Thanks
- Hi - Hi
Why are you spending time on that garden again?
Do a reading for me instead
It's not like pills, twice a day!
- It's for urgent cases - You don't get it
I received a call today after 3 years
Go for hajj in 4 months
- Great! - I did all the shopping for it
- I counted on your help - I've not been but
- It's not really hard - Everyone else says it is
I've not been
- I have to know what to do - OK
Of course he's happy
Ahmad says a daughter is much better
Yeah
We got everything, why are you so worried?
Mum I always feel really warm I'm so annoyed
I didn't say that to make you worried
It's not good for your heart Ahmad is here to help
What
Yeah, I don't know
I'll tell you if I need anything
I've put weight on
You didn't tell her Leila?
I don't have a mother to come help you how will you do it on your own?
- I'm saying it for you - Pass me the salt
- Couldn't she send your aunts? - I can't tell her not to come
What if something happens to her?
I only found Samaneh and Somayeh last night
There were no other names with S that I liked
It's nice
- Have your tea - Thanks
I wasn't in rush if it wasn't for the hospital charges
Don't say that! I'm happy
There you go
The last instalment will be Mr Jalali's building -Sure
- Count it first - No it's fine
- Thanks - Bye
The price for the hooded ones
- In the window - 60
Why is she home so early?
I thought you were supposed to come home after dark
You moan why I'm late. Now you're saying I'm home early
My meeting with my friends got cancelled what's going on?
I have a guest, come back in an hour
- Where do I go? - Don't ask me
Go upstairs
Go on then
I forgot the first part
One more time
Yes
I forgot the first part
- Sorry I was a bit nosy - No I'd opened them already
You have to open them, and dress them
Ahmad bought them
- I don't know the size but we need more - Size?
I think this is my size
I was joking, it'll be their size in 2 years
They're so pretty
- You can't like that - I said OK to everything
I can't do this one thing
You're not to wear any underwear when you go there
What do you mean?
These towels will fall off
I can't hold it with one hand
- You couldn't do it if you were me - It's short
It won't even be that long
I found out my husband was on drugs a week after my marriage
I couldn't fix it
Now I can't get a divorce
What? I'm getting a divorce why are you uncomfortable?
What's Ahmad like?
I'll get it
You really won't say anything Ahmad?
She called me and had a go
- I should've taken care of it myself - She's my sister-in-law
Don't take her serious
I know
But you gave them your half
They need the money, I lent it to them
Don't stress
You didn't hear it, she kept whinging and you defend her
The doctor said not to get angry the kids will know
I know what the doctor said move over
- We have to make up first - I should
- Tell me how many days - 5 months 8 days if we count today
- How long is there left? - 4 months and minus 8 days
You need help on the steps
I'll go
Dad don't be afraid you knew it all up until last night
Let's go before you miss your flight
Stop it I've mixed it all up go on
- You just get angry - No go on
Sir
Do we pray first or later?
- It's later - I've mixed everything up
What did I do after praying?
You're taking this with you
The clergy will tell you what to do each step of the way
Sorry but our clergy isn't as cool as you
- He talks so fast I mix everything up - Thanks
- I've something I want to say - Sure
Careful not to mention the triplets to my dad
He'll just have a stroke if he hears
You were supposed to tell him before he left
I'll do it
We'll wait till he gets back, he'll find out
- I might not get back - Sure
Keep this with you
It's for the satellite dish
I'll try not to even watch the news on the satellite
Don't be so hard on yourself
- Coming - Let's go
Pray for us please
Hope you have an easy delivery
- Thanks - Sure, bye
She's done such hard work and all the clothes are stained
Leila I'll just wash them and they'll be fine
It won't help
Let's see if you can tell which ones are new once they're washed
Come in please
Would you like a guest?
They all still smell of pickles
I'll throw them in the wash once I get back
Listen, a husband who washes his kids' clothes by hand is a miracle
You should appreciate him not to moan
What happened?
Are you in pain?
Fine it's OK, get up
We'll take my car
Get up, don't be afraid
Here's our other angel
- Who do you think they'll look like? - It's too early to tell
I hope they'll look like you
Be pretty
That way they'll be married quick
We'll get through it, together
I'm so worried Ahmad
She's still under care
Have faith
Doctor said she'll be fine
I've asked not to add anyone to her room for now
Oxygen is absolutely necessary for your daughter
Sure
- Here's her new prescription - Thank you
- Could you turn it up a bit please? - Sure
How much did they sell all of this to you for?
Good price, he was a nice man
Of course, who'd dare not be nice to one of you
God help the ones with kids
It's terrible, here you go
Thanks
Sorry to ask, have you started your own nursery?
Don't fall out with me
Ahmad my chador
- Sorry you had to come - Stop it
- Is it OK you sleep at work? - Yeah it's fine
I get on with work
- She's on her own, what if she gets scared? - Hedieh?
- No she'll be fine - Hi
- Congratulations! - Welcome
- Hi uncle - Hi love
- Congrats Ahmad - Thank you
We went to see the girls before we came here
- Thank you - Congrats
- You didn't tell mother uncle - Don't worry
I know my own sister, she won't tell her either
No
- Here you go - Thank you
Thank you
Why did you take her out? It's not good for her
She was crying and the doctor said it's not good for her
Yes
Is Narges good?
It's different from Somayeh and Samaneh
It doesn't start with an S
It ends in S
My baby
Let's get you washed
You look so clean
- Shut the door she'll get a cold - Sure
- Is Narges OK? - I changed her oxygen capsule
- But she has a wheezy breath - Crying is bad for her
Come here
Just keep her close to the heater I'll come dress them
Wait
Come here
Yes love
Are you having hiccups?
You're even prettier now
Yes
The neighbour is looking for you
Yes I talked to him but I don't know what he wants
I think he has some electrical work
You have to finish here first though
- OK? - Sure
- I'll go call him you tell him - Sure
I thought you're the owner of the flats when I saw you
- I wish - I've seen a lot of young clergies
- But I want someone like you - I told you I'm not into movies
- It's too noisy here, come to the office - I left my stuff in your room Mr Heydari
No thanks, I'm running late
Read the script at least and let me know what you think
- Would that be enough? - Yes
- Sure I'll give you my thoughts on it - Thanks
Thanks for your time
Bye
They're so cute in pictures
Narges looks the prettiest, everyone loves her at work Leila
Come see
Let's see
- How much will he add to the rent? - I don't know
He's afraid of them when they're older and running about
You already know I might never make it to the next one
Unless you recommend me
- Help make it happen - I'll pray
The rosary is real
Thank you
Ahmad I'll never forget I was in Mecca
I was praying for your son
A black man was sat next to me praying in his own language
I think our prayers got mixed up
- You want me to take her - No I'm fine
- You might wake her up - I won't
- Give her to me - I'm fine
- Come take a look at the photos - No I can just look at her
Ahmad do you know how much the benefits will be?
- No I haven't - Dad?
Ahmad never received benefits
The baby needs her milk
- Sorry - It's fine
I'll pick them up
Why are you panicking?
- Please - Ahmad can I have the thing back?
Of course
I won't add to the rent
But please try to keep them quiet
- Here you go - Thanks
Hedieh stay here for now and help these two
Excuse me!
Can I leave the injections here
- And come back tomorrow for them - I don't know
- Didn't you ask for them? - I took one but I'll come back for the rest
Let me ask the doctor
Wait a moment please - Thank you
- Yes - You know business is bad
- All the cheques have been bounced - Yes
But I swear this is all I could get
- Thanks - Careful son
Pay attention
- Why won't you answer your phone - Why?
- The guy looking for you - Yes
- He was looking for you again - I met him
- It wasn't for work - OK, is this all?
- Thanks - Take care
Thank you again
You should want your share from god
We didn't start the world he did
He's the one responsible for our shares that's not just to do with this world
Sometimes we get stuck in money
He shows us another path, don't say no
He's testing his beings
If you pass the test, it's done
If you ruin it, you'll pay for it yourself
Thank you
Yes
No I read it, it has a good storyline
Yes, I'm good thanks
I can hear you
Let him pass
I know what to do with you
- Look what he did - I apologise
- These clothes have respect - Don't do it again
- Whose side are you on? - Forgive him
- Yes - I'm Moradi
- Third floor - Yes
Thank you
Bye
Thank you, I'll fix it. Thanks
- Sorry it was an urgent call - Sure
- You read the storyline - Yes
- You didn't have any problems - No I didn't
I'm not an actor
- Sorry - It's perfect
- You're being you - You're nice to me, thanks
- Here's your contract - Thanks
- You just need to sign it - One thing
Sorry, I apologise
- Is this necessary? - That's enough
- Sorry - He doesn't need anything
Thank you
- Thank you - So Ahmad
- Did you want to say something? - I...
No
- No - Then we'll begin
My life is enough for ten movies
Is it too much to ask if
I don't want my husband playing the role of someone else's husband?
Where did I tell you up to?
The clergy gets into uni and is moving to Tehran
Then it gets better because he has to make a decision
Leila it's still up to you
But if I work for the entire town I'll never be paid 10 million
- Rials? - Toman
You're not paying attention
I have my own conditions
Pick her up right
I don't want it to be about temporary or second or third marriages
- Don't worry Leila - Dress her in the red if its dried
- The pants are damp - Bring Somayeh's bottle too
- I told you it's not about that - Say you're not in if the movie isn't good
- You wouldn't say it if you'd read it - I know you're not like that Ahmad
Don't giggle or laugh with women during filming
- What have you done? I'm sensitive - That's not like you to say Leila
Let's get her dressed before she gets a cold
- Anything else? - Turn down the cooker
I think your mum's conditions are over
He's brought everything other than his ID
- Isn't there any way around it? - I told you a few times Karim
- I don't know anyone - It's late dad
Hi
You didn't find me anyone, pray for us at least so it'll all be over
- I'm tired of going back and forth - It'll hopefully end well
That's if my prayers won't be mixed with others
- They're right how clergies are funny - Bye
- Sorry we're running late - It's fine
- Are you OK Ahmad? - Yes
No I'm not
You keep telling me to step onto the train and repeat
Ahmad it's normal in movies it'll be fine
I'll do it for the next 24 hours if I have to
But I feel bad for your colleagues
They're sat inside and keep having to repeat because of me
- They're tired - I should be there with them
Yes you've done a huge favour and sat with me so I feel better
I should go, I'll give you back the money
I've spent some of it but I can return it all if you give me a little time
Now isn't the time, the train will be here soon
Let me go
I promise to find you a better clergy just like the one you wanted
- Why are you doing this? - Let me go
See how much you've changed
We should think of money for their weddings. They grow up too fast
Do you have the heart to marry them off?
It's confusing! Inside, outside, night, day
No the story is good
You've not read it completely
Keep reading
These clothes are damp, you need to hang them
Sure
I told you Narges would look like you See
They'll all look like me, Hedieh said she'd take photos
That's nice
Don't mess up the kitchen I'll come clean it myself
What's going on Omid? It's too crowded move the cars
- There's traffic, I'll fix it. - Go please
Move please, we're filming
- He's not waiting for a taxi - Ask them all to go
I'll ask them to go
Could you ask the director if we could meet?
They don't know you're not waiting for a taxi so they stop
This town is huge but we're filming right next to my house
- Please ask them to go elsewhere - We'll go once we get this
- Let's do it - Tell him please
Let's roll
Sound
Camera
Action
- Go ma'am, hi - Hi
- How are you? - I'll give you a lift
- No I should stay here - Don't be shy I'm going this way
I'll give you a lift
Hi
- He got in the car and left - Call his phone see what happened
- Answer it, it might be Leila - No it doesn't matter
My driving isn't too bad Ahmad
- I'll get off here - We've not come a long way, why?
- I won't bother you - No it's fine
- I'm not in a rush I'll drop you off - No because I wasn't supposed to get in
- Could you pull over please? - Sure one second
- Sorry it seems rude - No it's fine
- Sorry - No you want to go
- Sorry, thanks - It's fine, bye
Bye
She's asleep
My baby is sleeping
- She fell asleep so quick - She's more quiet
- Eat Leila - I'm full. I don't really like pizza
Ahmad was never this late
Something must've come up he'll be home soon
Did I tell you I saw Ahmad on the street today?
He's so shy!
He said he was busy so I dropped him off
Here, take her to bed
Before she gets up again
Eat it's to celebrate my divorce
Idiot
He finally took it seriously when he knew it was over
He kept saying he'd quit
Don't you want to give him a second chance?
- He might love you really - Don't open my mouth
He'd have quit if he did
I'll go find his suit before he wakes the kids up
Pass her to me
- Don't wake her up - No I'm careful
You didn't let your mum sleep
You cried
You want to go to bed?
You're up lady?
She's opened her eyes to see her dad before he leaves
Love my baby
My mother always said it's the daughter who opens the door at home
God bless her soul
She prayed for me to have daughters
Pray for me
I know you'll take care of mum when I'm away
Dad is going to work
And you won't cry when I'm gone because your mum is asleep
Love you, bye
Action!
Cut
You're arguing guys
That's it, why are you about to beat him
We'll roll again
- Hi - Right Ahmad
- This is the final scene - Yes
- One of the girls will come to apologise - And I'll say I understand
I've a lot of experience in that area
- Right? - That's it
- Let's roll - Sure
Yes love
What do I do with you?
What's wrong
Are you hungry?
What do I do with you?
You'll wake Narges up too
Look at mummy
Enough
Is this better?
They won't calm down Leila
What's wrong?
Let's go out
Pass me Narges's bottle
Don't scream
You're so quiet
My lovely
It's fine
She's not breathing
It's fine
She's fine, look at me
- Look at me - She's cold
Pass her to me
Look at mummy Narges
This was meant to be for Narges
Your sister is sleeping
Hi
See how your sister gave us a scare
Let me know if you find anything
Hi
You're so sly
I couldn't tell at first
You said there was 3 of you when it came to the contract
You became 5 whilst I was away
- I told you about that - Yes
Yes you said you were studying to become a clergy
Now you're in cinema
Here you go, keep it
I'm so stupid!
Why didn't you take me to work?
Excuse me sir
- How much is it? - 2000
You say there's nothing wrong you've done everything
You're not bothered
- Don't shout the neighbours will hear - Everyone knows already
- I've nothing to say to you - The kids are getting scared
- Pass me the baby - You're not listening
I asked you to bring her oxygen capsule you think I can't do it
- I'm saying it's not real - What else was supposed to happen
- It's not real, no? - It's not
Is this me with girls?
Don't shout, get back up I said
It's fine
You woke her up
Come here, I won't stay here one minute longer
- I'll take you wherever you want to go - You think I can't go on my own
- I'll go straight to the coach station - Tell me what I did wrong Leila
- You don't know? - I was wrong
I was wrong to have moved here
I was wrong to have gotten a job played a role in a movie
I should've done my studies
Like my dad
Who asked me to do the same
Is that enough?
Is it Leila? I was wrong?
You ask now?
I'm sorry to have shouted
You stay here I'll leave
Mum stays here with you
She's done a big one
- I just changed her - She's a baby
Don't move around
Don't want to see you getting tired Leila
If it was up to Ahmad he'd want to be here every second
He has to go to work
You have three angels and you're being unappreciative
Right?
Are you clean and pretty again?
Yes?
You want to swap places?
God does strange things
He gives three to one person
Someone else is willing to give all her life
To have one of these babies
I'm grateful
- Sorry did I wake you up? - Yes
Sorry
Thanks, I'll fix those when I get back
Hi, excuse me!
Hi excuse me! The class
The same stuff that's always around
Who was the passage by?
Don't be so afraid
Mr Sepahshour tell me
A man who earns money for his family is like a soldierfighting for his country
Did I ask for an interpretation?
Did I? I said who's it by?
The profit
- Right? - You're right
Well done
You may go
A man should do whatever he can for his family
Yes
Mr Separshour
If you ever do become a clergy
You should change your name
Good day
- Do you understand ma'am? - Yes
- Don't you need anything else? - No thanks
- So you'll leave it to brew for ten minutes - Thanks
Hi
- Sorry to have bothered you - Don't say that son
She's my niece, she's my own
You did the right thing by coming here first
What did she say uncle?
It's good for your nerves
Women forgive easy but never forget
Women won't let you find out they've forgiven and forgotten
Men should know how their wives are feeling
- Hi - Come in
Hi
- Did you tell Ahmad? - Tell him yourself now that you're here
Narges had missed her father
My baby
You were about to fall
I should baby proof the house?
Hi
Where was Narges going?
If I don't watch her she wants to go downstairs
Hi love, how are you doing?
- Good day - You're doing the hard work not me
- Where's Somayeh? - Next to the bed
- She's up to something as per usual - Aw
Come here
Come the rest of the way
You're getting heavy
Are you eating the paper?
It's dirty
Sorry it was the news for your movie, I forgot
Thanks
Right, let's eat
Come here
Well done
- Don't you want to read it? - No her food is more important
Somayeh's food
Here's her spoon
She should eat her food
This life is the place to make amends
So we should be patient
This patience is the potion to success
God opens and closes doors
Forget other people
You think you're doing the right thing then have faith
Hold onto your knees and stand up
They used to accuse Ali for making jokes and laughing
What happened at the end? See where they are and where Ali is stood
