Attention!
People inside!
Put down your weapons and come outside!
Take aim!
Muhsin, what are you doing?!
I am not going to die without fighting!
FIRE!
We need to get out of here, immediately.
We are surrounded by the French! How will we go out?
Osman!
- What are we going to do? - There was an exit...
But, let's take you out first... Hamza!
HAMZA!
Elvan!
Elvan, are you ok?
CEASE FIRE!
CEASE FIRE!
Captain, I think they ceased fire.
Send the men...
Be careful...
They are surrounded anyways...
Yes, Captain!
Sergeant.
I want one person alive!
Just one person.
Yes, Captain.
Jerard, Simon, come with me!
Sergant.
Captain.
There must be a hidden exit. Look for it.
Yes, Captain.
Soldiers!
Find where these bandits are!
Hurry up!
Ok, this place is convenient.
How did they find our place?
We are supposedly being careful.
Maybe, someone snitched on us.
Who could it be?
Someone who saw when we were entering there. I don't know.
You acted intelligently by taking these.
Good job, Elvan.
We had to leave our weapons there.
Anyway...
We were going to Maras to buy weapons.
You are right.
We have to solve the weapon problem.
But, be careful.
Maras is full of French.
If you ask me, let'*** the road tonight.
The most secure place is Hasan's Lodging.
Spend the night over there.
Then, we are going to Maras first for weapons...
then Urfa, right?
Captain...
I think we found it.
Open it!
What are you waiting for, Sergeant? Go after them!
Yes, Captain!
You two, come with me! Others, go right!
He is the apple of the eye of our village.
They say he saved Karayilan's life.
Today, he saves your life...
Next day, he stabs you in the back.
You never know what they will do.
Asiye...
Elvan...
- Where are you coming from? - Mom.
- I am too exhausted to talk... - Or you...
with those irresponsible people.... with those bandits....
- ... with those destitute people... - Insurgents, mom!
- Insurgents. - Who did fool you into this, Elvan?
Which rambler did put this into your head? Eh?
- Which one? - They are not ramblers.
This is a struggle of a nation trying to survive.
So, will a couple of irresponsible people save this nation?
This nation manages itself better without them! And they do!
- By being the French's slave! - Don't say a word!
Mehmet!
I heard that you survived a crises again...
Yeah...
We need lots of weapons to stop the French.
You told that we could buy it from Maras.
Let's go Maras, tomorrow.
There is Arab Recep, there.
Let's send out a dove.
Let me go.
Stop... We don't have anything to hide from you.
Aga, I'll start for travel preparations.
What am I going to do? Am I not going to come with you?
What do you say, Behram Aga?
You get ready for the road...
And you will pull the mules while coming back.
Just tell me how many rifle we will put on while going there...
Maybe you should wave a flag to the French while you are at there.
No rifle!
Either you are going to listen to me or you will stay here!
Ok, ok... I will pull the mules.
We should take precautions but not this much!
No! We aren't barbarians!
Are we going to build a scaffold on every street?
They are arming!
If we attempt to kill the locals by executing with a fire squad....
We can't find a single person to govern!
They should know that they are being governed.
If we don't establish rules, they won't know.
As you wish...
They believe you.
They trust you.
These many people gathered around you in a very short time...
and they are waiting for your signal to die.
I always tried to find a solution, Margos...
And when I saw these children lifeless...
Then I understood that we had no choice but to die and to kill.
I didn't start this.
You are so lucky; because you have things that you could risk death.
Where are you going?
To sleep...
Wear your slippers.
We are going to Istanbul.
I can't handle you anymore...
It's better if we go to Istanbul and leave everything behind.
I've changed, Mom.
- What does it mean? - It means that I am not the girl who does what her mother says without even questioning.
A person doesn't change in a night.
If that person lives things that could be lived in a lifetime in one night, then she changes...
My decision is final. Get ready, we will leave in two days.
The ones who carry revolvers with them...
will be executed by a firing squad without any interrogation.
There won't be any exceptions to the rules established by the French Colony...
Did you hear, Artin?
It says that people who carry revolvers will be executed.
The ones who have the revolver should think about it; I don't have any.
In case of any suspicious situations, the stores will be closed without giving any reasons to the store owners.
And you have a store...
Right, Artin?
They hung these everywhere.
Colonel...
says that he is the sultan here.
But they never take into consideration the insurgents.
- Muhsin Agha, let's go to the square and gather our friends... - No, you are not going to do anything.
We are not going to meet until we find a safe place.
Don't keep the men together. Send them to their home. It's better this way.
Now, without me telling you, you are going to load the rifle.
In Sarikamis, Karayilan shot 3 Russian soldiers with just one single bullet.
One day, a Russian soldier approached Karayilan, thinking that he shot him.
He couldn't see him on the ground...
When he turned back, he saw that Karayilan was right before him.
Karayilan opened his hand...
... and the bullet was in his hand.
Come Ibo, Mom calls you back...
Elvan Hanim...
Do these man ever leave the door?
Don't they even eat?
You are still thinking to escape but...
Belkis Hanim filled the mansion with colossal men.
And early in the morning, two maids came.
Belkis Hanim didn't see what I saw.
I care about the things that Belkis Hanim don't care.
Tell me, when do they leave the door?
Never... Never...
Your mother ordered them not to leave.
She shoved me into her own dreamworld.
Real world is outside.
Hard...
Miserable and cruel...
But real...
I lost my father there.
Without seeing that Bozan bandit dies...
you won't be at ease...
Asiye, I was with people who defended their honor.
Just yesterday...
I was this close to being one of them...
I have to be with them.
That's the only place where I can learn how to fight.
right by Karayilan's side...
They are going to Maras tonight.
To Hasan's lodge...
I can catch them...
Are you doing this just for Bozan?
Praise be!...
How is your arm? Ok?
Good, good... I'll see the doctor tomorrow.
There is news! From Arab Recep!
What does he say?
He says he will bring everything we want...
When I see him tonight face to face, I'll tell him to be at the Guvercinli Bridge in the morning...
- Good... - I arranged the finances...
What and how much we are going to buy and how much we will pay...
They are all written here...
Then, let'*** the road.
We will spent the night at the lodge...
And we will be at the bridge in the morning. Get ready.
You never know what will happen to us...
In case we lose each other...
Does everybody know where we are going to meet?
I know...
It is the ruined bridge close to Maras pass.
- You? - Me?
Let me think... You know... There is a ruined bridge over there...
I drew the map here...
Memorize it...
Agha, I don't know how to read.
Son, I am saying that I drew it...
- Don't you know how to look, either? - Ok, then.
Don't you lose it!
Artin, I am going to warehouse, watch my store...
Yes...
Look here, your folks are coming...
Don't say "your folks"...
- Are they my siblings? - You're right...
They are neither your nor my siblings, but...
They are wandering around as if this land belongs to them.
See you...
We are going to buy the things we want and will leave after we finish our business.
In the army, I worked in the intelligence department for a long time.
I deciphered correspondences in different languages.
So this is the secret behind your perfect Turkish.
I wonder Captain...
If you could choose, in which French colony would you like to work?
Algeria... Beirut...
Hang another one here...
You, stop!
You've heard what I said, I am speaking in Turkish. STOP!
I don't have a revolver on me...
You are not executing people without a weapon, are you?
No, we are not.
But, my gut feeling is...
that you will give me a chance to execute you.
I am happy to be here.
The French may declare a curfew soon...
Stopping the life on the street doesn't serve their purpose
Businesses, schools, mosques, and churches should run...
What they want is stability and an order that will return profit...
You know them well.
I was raised like them.
I know how their mind works.
You are constantly asking about what's happening on the street...
Didn't you come here because you wondered about me?
Yes, I stopped by because I wondered about you.
When will you be back from Maras?
We will be back before the night...
Why do you go to Maras, now?
What will you there?
A little bit trading...
Is the person you will do the trade reliable person?
Behram arranged it...
He knows him before... He said he was reliable.
Huh! Welcome, Sultan.
Belkis Hanim wanted things that she could take with her to Istanbul.
I hope you brought good things.
Elegant embroideries... Antep fabrics... You brought all these, right?
Let's not make Belkis Hanim angry at the last moment.
Aren't we going to go near the horses?
Karayilan is still at that house.
We will wait for him and then we'll go.
Agha is coming...
What did you do?
We completed the missing things and had the horseshoes checked.
Good. Let's go.
You are as timid as a mouse...
This is not normal at all...
What's going on? Eh?
Nothing...
Who told you to chop wood?
I am fine, Mom. I am fine...
Come and sit here...
Sit...
I want you to do something for me.
Tomorrow, you are going to Antep, right?
Yes, tell me Mom, what do you want?
I took a vow.
Mom...
forget about taking a wov...
And I am feeling better...
Let's pack, we are going to leave soon.
Our father above knows my heart.
He sends you such a signal that you can't go anywhere.
Give these to the priest.
Our father above forgot you all these years...
You don't even realize it.
He never does that. I asked him to send you back to me alive. And you are here alive...
We couldn't find her ma'am...
The man checked every street...
They stopped and searched every peddler women...
Let them search again... Again!
- And we can report it to the police station. - Are you going to say that Belkis Hanim's daugher ran away?
Do you know what will happen if people hear about this?
Don't let it out of this room. Continue to search.
Yes, Ma'am...
Belkis Hanim....
Belkis Hanim, are you ok?
I'll bring your medicine...
Don't bring it...
I need to find my daughter.
I need to find Elvan.
Where is she?
God, please help me.
Aga, let's arm wrestle after the dinner.
We haven't wrestled since you came back from your military service.
Instead of me, wrestle with Nizipli.
- He is your match. - I'll beat him even he holds with his two hands.
I talked to Arab Recep.
With the mules loaded, he will meet us at the place where we decided before in the morning.
Good.
I'll be back.
Who is there?
Who are you? Come out! COME OUT!
What are you doing here?
I came here to join you.
Us?
How did you come here?
I came... Does it matter?
When I saw your horse, I decided to wait here.
I can't sit at home anymore.
I have to be in the Resistance.
I am sure I can help you.
Bandits and the French are everywhere.
We calculate every step we take.
- You are being irresponsible. What you did now is... - You will say that it is stupid but I don't care.
- I came here all by myself... And after this... - There is no after.
Don't expect me to leave, because I won't go.
You won't go?
Ok, stay here tonight.
You will go back in the morning.
Look, I didn't come all this way to go back again...
Elvan Hanim, we are not in a position to bargain right now.
In the morning...
I will send you off during the day.
Ok?
- Hasan Aga, don't you have any vacant room? - I swear there is no vacant room.
I already arranged two rooms for you.
And I don't have any other vacant room. Many people traveling towards Erzurum stay here.
You have to deal with this tonight...
No problem.
If you get cold at night, you can cover yourself with the blanket.
I will sleep as soon as we turn off the light and I put my head on the pillow.
When you turn off the light, bedbugs may come out.
If I rub lamp oil, they will stay away from me.
There may be other bugs and mice.
You wouldn't be afraid, would you?
No, why should I be afraid?
Good...
Have a tight sleep.
Lock the door after me.
Good night.
You, too.
If the girl didn't come, we all would comfortably sleep in our beds...
There wasn't any vacant room.
We will get by like this tonight.
Many officer traveling to Erzurum are staying here tonight.
Probably, they will be under Kazim Karabekir's commanding.
Only regular army is there.
Kazim Pasa declared his loyalty to Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk).
I guess they will attack the Greeks...
And we are going to defend here.
I will stay awake for a while. Have a good night.
Good night.
Let's sleep.
Berham Cavus...
Do you mind if I ask...
Is that girl Karayilan's beloved?
I think she is...
She is not.
You are so curious.
One of the insurgents in the city...
wanted to hunt a French just like you...
What about the girl that we saw in front of the house in Antep?
Nizipli...
Elvan Hanim, are you ok?
Are you ok?
- A scorpion stung me. - A scorpion?
Let me see.
I didn't realize it.
I felt a pain on my side
And when I looked at it, I saw the scorpion.
It may be poisonous.
Hold your arm tight...
...to prevent the poison to spread.
We have to get the poison out of your body.
How? No!
No! I don't want to.
We have to detoxify you.
But...
I have to suck this poison out...
Here you go.
It may burn a little bit and you may have a fever...
Are you ok? Any pain?
It's just a small wound.
Don't look down on scorpion...
There are ones that can knock down a big horse.
Where did you see the scorpion? Where did it sting you?
There... I was lying down...
Cold reduces the fever...
Don't worry, you'll get better.
Tomorrow is an important day.
You will buy the weapons from that man.
From now on, every day is important.
Everything is precious.
Rifle is precious, bullet is precious...
Horses are precious.
Human is precious...
Isn't human important, either?
I mean, don't you think the resistance needs more people?
For example, me...
Do I have to know how to use a weapon?
At the village, hospital, or shelter...
I work wherever you need me...
But not here...
Your coming here was wrong.
My father used to say...
once you realize the reality...
it means that you passed the port and burnt the ships...
There is no turning back anymore.
You will continue...
Your dad is right...
Did you love your dad very much?
Very much...
I tell him my everything...
I mean I used to tell...
He always said "Don't bridle your imagination"
He used to start a story from a grape piece...
and make me the heroine of that story
For example I would become a bird picking on the vineyard.
We used to ride on or horses to the vineyard house to continue the story that we started at home...
My mom always got mad at us...
Didn't your dad tell you stories?
Memo Agha?
He always remained distant.
He didn't talk much or laugh.
But...
I understood from his yell...
...that he appreciated what I did.
When he liked something...
He cheered up...
He prepared me to every kind of trouble in life.
He taught me to fight against wild animals...
or to endure hunger and cold...
Even though I am all alone...
I learned from my father how to resist hardships...
I took two pieces of clothes and my father's binocular with me when I left the house.
I can't sit and wait in that mansion anymore.
Since I won't be able to wait, I came after you...
That's why I am here.
I have to be inside the resistance.
Please, don't send me back.
Belkis Hanim...
I... am going to tell you something.
Sleep tight...
You, too.
Today we are going to catch the insurgents in Maras.
With the weapons they bought.
Maybe, we are going to do some celebration here tomorrow.
Let's do it now!
- Wine? - It is early for drinking a wine Mr. Laros...
- And also, I will get the translations from the colonel... - Then, let's drink a morning coffee.
Sit down...
I am returning to Antep.
I will take Elvan Hanim there, ok?
Really?
I will catch you on your return.
Mom...
What are you doing here?
What are "you" doing here?
Get into to the carriage.
Are you Karayilan?
Yes... What gives?
Stay away from my daughter.
You and your wild gang will never be near my daughter.
It is obvious that my daughter in under your influence.
We are not holding your daughter here against her will.
And she is not under our influence.
She has her own mind and ideas.
You think those are her real ideas?
She doesn't even realize what she is living now.
All these things are just an adventure for her.
This is the first time she stayed away from her house.
You think she won't complain tomorrow?
You think she wouldn't miss what she lived, ate, and drink?
You can't know her better than me.
She doesn't belong here.
Mom, what are you telling?
As a mother, please...
if you think my daugther's goodness
...help me to take here home.
You want me to go.
Is that right?
Let's go.
Master...
MASTER!
I checked the workshop but you weren't there. How are you?
Our Levon bought this house.
He wanted me to overhaul the house.
Actually, where have you been, Margos?
I thought you left.
No, no... I was sick a little bit.
That's why I was late.
I came to Antep to see the doctor and I also wanted to stop by to see you.
I hope you feel better soon; what happened?
Nothing important, master... Just a little pain... That's it...
I think I am getting older.
- Getting older? - Yeah...
WATCH OUT!
- Hold it! Don't let go! - Hold it... Slowly... Slowy...
Slowly... Hold on... Hold on...
Hold on... Hold on... Calmly... Slowly...
Slow down... Hold on.. Hold on...
Did you see Levon?
He was saying he was sick two minutes ago.
See! He is my apprentice.
Mine!
And, you are my master.
Margos...
There is a lot of work.
Master Tumas can't do this all alone...
Come and I'll give you a couple of works to do...
Thanks Levon.
I will go to Damascus with my Mom.
Are you crazy?
This is not the time to go!
It is very nice that The French came here.
Soon, entire commerce in Antep will be under our control.
If you say that you don't want to do stone work anymore, then come and work at my store.
We have constant goods flow...
I need someone reliable like you whom I can trust.
What do you say?
No.
I am here today gone tomorrow...
Sorry...
So, you are Karayilan, eh?
Yeah, it's me...
Where are the weapons?
Loaded and ready.
Where is my money bag?
It's here...
Let's see the weapons first.
Selami!
Behram, take a look at them.
- My mon send these... Anush.. - Thank you.
Now, every time you fire a bullet, you remember Arap Recep's beautiful face.
And you pray for me...
I will remember you when it jams not when I fire.
Can we go Behram?
Agha...
THE FRENCH!
Run! Run, run! Hide! Hide!
Go there... Go!
Behram, what are we going to do?
I wonder if Arap (Recep) snitched on us.
It is obvious that he didn't.
We are stuck here!
If he just shows his head a little bit more, I will shoot him, but...
We have to leave the guns and get up on our horses and run away!
We can't leave the weapons here.
They will kill us before we reach the mules.
Who are they?
Who are you?
I am Veziroglu Mehmet.
You are Karayilan, aren't you?
Elvan!
Thank God, you came back without any harm...
Welcome.
We received a pigeon from Antep... From Dr. Osman...
He wrote that the French would attack you here.
Dr. Osman didn't know that we would meet Arap Recep here.
Actually, you think about how the French knew this place.
We will give these to the French...
In return, we will get our men taken prisoner by the French.
Do you have many men taken captured?
We have many captured as well as many wounded.
But, we won't give in.
God bless you...
Same to you...
Good bye...
Thank you.
Somebody snitched on us to the French. But who?
Magros...
Somebody who knows everything, whom we think he is one of us.
Go and check these weapons again...
Come on...
Come on...
Yeah.. Nobody likes when someone tells the truth...
He may be right.
The one who snitched on us is person who knows everything...
Let's eliminate the four of us and Margos...
Elvan Hanim...
Tsk!
She doesn't know where we are going to meet.
There is no one else.
There is one more person, Behram...
Who?
You take the weapons and go back to the village. I'll come later.
Where?
Mehmet?
Are you surprised to see me?
Yes, I am...
I thought you were in Maras.
You come inside, I'll bring you tea.
I didn't come here to drink tea...
I came here to see if you could look me in the eye...
Can you look me in the eye?
Why can't I?
You tell me.
The Sona that I know would never sell out her childhood friends to the French.
Why didn't you reveal us that night?
You wanted me to get caught; not Margos. RIGHT?!
Mehmet, what are you doing?
Doctor...
We found the snitch...
Sona...
Mehmet...
You misunderstood.
Sona Hanim is helping us...
...not the French...
How do you think we let Veziroglu know?
Because of the information Sona Hanim gave us.
Are you ok?
Let me wash my face...
Sona has been waiting to hear from me.
...to know that you are safe.
I told her not to divulge herself whatsoever.
... even to you...
This morning, Captain Laros...
...mentioned her that he would caught the insurgents who went to Maras to buy a weapon.
Sona realized that you were in danger.
If it is not Sona, then who?
Nizipli, enough!
If Karayilan says that it is not Margos, then it is not!
Agha, doesn't this man know everything?
He did this to curry favor with his friends.
Actually, if we just badger him to death, he will spill the beans but...
Listen to reason, Nizipli!
This was all my idea.
When Sona came back to Antep to teach the British...
I understood that I could trust her at first sight.
She had a good place among the British.
I asked her to be our spy.
And to be able to get information from the French...
She accepted Laros' collaboration offer.
Since everything is clear now...
Let me go back to the office.
Thank you very much for your concern and care.
Not at all...
I made a mistake.
Will you forgive me?
We were just 14 years, old Mehmet...
While Margos was doing masonry work...
You read something from the book that Grandpa Ismail gave you.
Do you remember?
Yes, I do...
The sound of Margos' chisel...
and your voice mixed together...
That sound was the life's heartbeat for me.
We were always together back then.
We were happy.
When I came back, this city was different, Mehmet...
There were revenge, cruelty, and servitude...
Like everything else, that heartbeat stopped as well.
I wanted to run away...
I couldn't do it.
We can't turn back the time.
But I said...
Maybe I can catch it again...
That's why I accepted Doctor's offer.
I lost so many things, Mehmet.
And I don't want to lose this, too.
This is my hope.
Don't worry...
Would you like to drink tea?
You are going to brew it strong, aren't you?
Magros...
I want to talk to you.
I am going to keep it short, so you do the same.
What do you want?
Tell it...
Tell that you snitched on us...
If you don't confess now, your punishment will be bigger when you give yourself away.
How big?
Karayilan thought that you were his friend and he trusted you!
And what did you do?
You snitched on him! Traitor!
NIZIPLI!
We found who was responsible...
Huh!
Who is he?
The owner of this paper...
That's not mine...
Mine is here...
You dropped the paper somewhere.
A rascal took it to the French commander...
A friend of ours got that paper...
And that person brought the paper to Doctor Osman.
Doctor Osman sent a post pigeon to Veziroglu.
You know the rest.
If it isn't Sona, then who?
Forgive me Agha...
Just think about whom you got suspicious...
Think about the mistake you made...
And don't leave me anything else to say.
Margos, sorry...
Give your rifle to Behram.
At last, you are getting rid of me, Behram Cavus, eh?
The men don't leave the door, do they?
Don't unnecessarily torture the men...
I am not going anywhere.
If only you could understand that you wouldn't be able to change anything by locking me up.
Colonel's aide is here, ma'am... He said he had news for you...
Why didn't you take him inside?
He gave this and then left, he invites you to the quarters tomorrow.
These are the things that I always keep with me.
The rest is in Paris.
The course that Colonel wants to open was for girls upto 14 years old.
I will be a French teacher there.
Yes, yes...
I guess you don't like the Colonel's idea.
Miss...
If I were the Colonel...
I would adopt a very harsh and intimidating policy....
I would tyrannize the people...
We should use this situation...
Believe me, it is very easy after that...
Um... How do you say?
"Like a hot knife through butter."
Yes, that's right.
If they learn the language, they will understand you better, Captain.
They don't need to.
It is not important that they understand me.
Rather, their submission is important.
I want them to obey.
Total surrender...
Then, you can create...
...nice cooks...
...workers...
...very beautiful women...
...out of them.
Didn't Priest Arsen tell you anything for me?
Of course, he did. I forgot to tell you.
He said that the tarhana you sent was not enough. [Translator's Note: Tarhana is a kind of soup with dried yogurt, tomatoes, and flour.]
He said that this was not enough for your prayers to be accepted.
You, donkey-foal!
You didn't receive any signs from our father today?
Yes, I did.
I did.
A stone was about to fall on my head today...
Our father above means that we stayed here more than enough and it is time to go.
Even though God put the sign in the eye, you don't have an eye to see the sign.
Magros!
I unfairly accused you...
I called you traitor; but, the real traitor was me.
You weren't guilty at all.
I apologize...
I am sorry.
Well, since you are sorry...
I forgive you.
Fine...
But, still...
I still don't like you.
Fine.
I don't want to have this load on me while I am leaving.
Fine...
I can't tell you enough how Belkis Hanim was upset when she learned that you ran away from home.
Look...
She made me do this at this time of the night.
Yogurt Soup...
Please, eat one spoon at least...
If I didn't tell that you were at Maras, something might happen to you there...
But, let me tell you something.
I don't regret it.
I'd rather see you take offense at me than to see you dead.
Don't worry.
I don't turn away from you.
You are not the one at whom I took offense.
Belkis Hanim?
No, not her, either.
Weapon is your chastity...
and your honor...
You will take good care of it.
Someday, you will fall asleep with it in your arms as if it is your beloved.
Someday, you will put it on your shoulder and fire bullets to the enemy.
Young men, know how precious your weapon is.
Our fate depends on the bullets to be fired by it.
I swear my heart is beating boom boom.
I saw it in my dream.
I was killing the enemy one by one.
Where is your weapon?
Aren't you going to have one?
I guess your arm is healed...
Mehmet...
Welcome.
Come, take a sit.
Thank you.
A man who will leave won't reapir the oven.
I don't want stay idle.
That's why...
Do you really want to go?
Why should I stay?
To fight together...
Eh?
While our folks are in search of revenge?
But, you are not in search of revenge...
Our problem is not with each other.
It is with the occupiers.
Come, let's fight together side by side.
Ok?
Margos, you and I are the same.
We drank the same water, crossed the same bridge. We are equal.
- So, we are equal, eh? - Yes.
My folks expect me to join them.
They can even accept my stay here.
They ask me what I am doing here.
Like...
I am between two worlds.
And neither of them belong to me.
You have only one world.
One home...
One war...
One army...
One enemy...
And now tell me...
Are we equal?
We are not?
Mighty Karayilan...
So, I am the only one who can deal with you, eh?
And that's why I want you beside me.
I am not in a hurry, I will wait.
Have a good night.
You, too.
As I understand, the Colonel wants me to work for a class that will be opened just for girls...
Mrs. Belkis...
Please don't think that I am exaggerating while translating.
This polite offer is just a wish...
The colonel did not consider to dictate you in anyway whatsoever.
Look, I am not against the French goverment...
But there are people who think otherwise in my circle.
Of course...
But if you accept this offer, this will be an example for other families as well.
You and your daughter are one of the most prominent families of this city.
Thank you.
Purpose of this class is to teach science and culture to young people here.
French civilization is the true treasure of humanity.
Students will learn French language.
And this treasure will be theirs.
Look, dear Colonel...
Sona Hanim, please help me explain...
My daughter and I were getting ready for going to Istanbul.
To be honest, I am in a very difficult situation right now.
The Colonel says that...
It's better if you stay here rather than going to Istanbul.
He specifies that he will provide your security...
and you will have a privileged position here.
See with your daughter the building that the class will be given and then decide.
The Colonel can send his car to bring your daughter here.
No, it is not necessary. My carriage is waiting outside. It can bring my daughter.
What would you like to have, ladies?
You decide what you would like to drink, I let your driver know.
What gives? Where are you going?
I am leaving Agha... I have a long way to go.
You are not going anywhere!
You are coming with us to Urfa in the morning.
God bless you...
I told Karayilan that you apologized to Margos...
You thank him...
I will... I can even carry him on my back for taking me to Urfa with him.
I missed this so much, Agha...
Take this...
I don't get this class thing...
You will get some air... What is so bad about it?
This way.
Remzi Efendi...
I forgot my shawl...
Will you get it from Asiye?
Yes, ma'am...
Thank you.
Have a good day.
For the first time...
I mentioned my father to someone else.
I told about him to some one that I trusted or I wanted to trust a lot.
Your mother was right.
The conditions were harsh...
You wouldn't be able to endure.
I wish you waited
and let us see this together.
I wish you gave me a chance before justifying my Mom.
Why didn't you just say "Stay"?
Well, since I am not able to be with you...
I don't need this anymore.
You can have it.
Doesn't it belong to your dad?
It is very valuable... I can't accept this.
Yes, it is very valuable.
But, if you don't take it, it will stay in a drawer forever.
It will stay there just like that without being used.
It is sad, isn't it?
Please...
Thank you.
Have a good day.
I brought it ma'am.
I wanted to see if I could help.
But, the apprentices are learning the work.
They are working but they can't do it like you do.
If you didn't come yesterday....
Our 6 months labor would be all shattered.
Anyways Master... You take it easy... Let me go...
At least, drink a lemonade.
Let's drink master...
In old days, Sona would make it and bring it...
Take it son... Her arms are getting tired.
Alterations done to the old mansion are beautiful.
Classrooms are very clean.
They will teach embroidery and handicraft as well beside language.
I think this course is a very good opportunity for the girls at school age.
I don't really care.
Little girsl will get an education. They will have knowledge and good manners...
Don't you want to help them?
Help to whom?
To them or to the French?
The only thing they want to do is teach them a little bit of civilization.
I won't work for the French.
Remember the French novels you read...
Hugo... Dumas...
Wasn't "Cyrano de Bergerac" your favorite book?
You still keep it on your headstand...
We are not talking about the books, mom... We are talking about the occupiers...
His name is Mehmet Sait...
He is coming from Istanbul.
- Is he from here? - Yeah...
He has been assigned... So, they say he will be here soon...
Let's hope that this will be good.
Agha, Aghas came from the village.
They say they have something to tell you.
We will meet the convey coming from Halep.
I will join the convoy.
We will arrive to Urfa before the sun sets...
Are you sure you won't see any resistance on the road to Urfa?
Yes, Captain.
But, don't you think that the incidents in Maras....
... show that they are getting ready for Urfa?
A couple of mules loaded with weapons... That's all...
Mr. Bevit heard that "a call" was made to the resistance forces in the villages...
Yes, a call was made but that doesn't mean that people will join it.
Trust me. They won't be able to bring even 30 people together.
None of them will leave their field or village to go Urfa to help.
You said well, Karayilan... But...
What about our own village and homes? Are they going to be left unprotected?
Aghas, you can't protect your own tree while the entire forest is on fire.
We should gather our all power...
We need to extinguish the fire all together.
Arap Ismail is right. Bandits and the French know that we have weapons and we protect our villages. That's why they don't mess with us.
We need two days for Urfa. Then, Kilic Ali will come.
If this convoy transports the necessary support that the French need, our brothers in Urfa will have very difficult time.
Belkis Hanim got very angry for a moment.
I got angry more.
Teaching French language to Turkish children?
Weren't you a Turkish child while you were learning French?
- If it was a bad thing, would your father ever... - Puff...
Give me that.
It's not the same thing.
How do I know?
If you don't accept it, you won't be able to leave this house anymore.
You will make yourself miserable in this house everyday...
What's going to happen if I go there?
You should see that place... It is worse than here... It is just like a prison.
Doesn't matter. You will be out of this house.
And that's something, too...
Oh my God...
I swear I didn't say this to make you run away again...
I said it to make it easy for you...
Little lady... I beg you...
Ok Asiye. I am not thinking to run away.
Where did you get this idea?
Let's assume that we got together and started going to Urfa...
Where are the weapons? Bullets?
If two of them work, at least five of them is broken...
As for the bullets; we don't even get a training, just to save the bullets...
What are you talking about Aghas?
You think our situation is different from yours?
We are in the same situation.
It doesn't matter Aghas...
Working or broken... We are going to get all our weapons and stand against the French.
We will intimidate them first...
I believe that it is wiser to protect to place we held.
If the French destroy all of us at Urfa...
What will happen here?
If Urfa falls, Maras is next.
If Maras falls, Antep is next.
If we can't stop the French at Urfa...
They will come Antep soon and destroy all of us.
- Tomorrow, I and Selahattin are going to Urfa. - Yeah...
It's upto you to come or not to come.
I know that you all think about what you left behind...
...your beloved ones...
... your families...
and your children...
Today, we are going to fight for the things we left behind.
Now, tell me...
- Are we going to let the enemy's boots and weapons step on our land? - NO!
Maybe, some of you won't come back today.
Maybe, some of you will be captured.
or maybe, you will DIE!
May God be with the one with big heart...
... not the one with many weapons!
Now, tell me!
- Are you afraid? -NO!
I think I am hungry...
You haven't eaten anything for two days...
I was unreasonable.
I admit it.
Does your mind start working as you eat?
I think I overreacted to the Colonel's offer.
At the end, it is something good for girls.
And I learned French when I was a kid, too.
It is unfair to say that I regret it.
Not everybody has what I have.
So, are you going to accept the offer?
Do you think I would be successful?
Why wouldn't you be if you really want to do it?
Captain Laros will accompany you with his ten soldiers who know this region very well.
We will go to Urfa, do the delivery, drink myrrh (bitter coffee with cardamom), and come back.
Ok, but I can't drink that bitter drink...
I will get a regular Turkish coffee.
Then, have a safe trip...
We will hit the road again in half an hour.
Ok.
There... Arap Ismail is coming.
At last, he found this reasonable, eh?
Is the French convoy coming from Antep's way?
We thought we would get help from Antep, but they are pressed as well...
Some people are coming from Antep's way...
That is Karayilan...
He is bringing whole Antep with him...
- What happened, Sergeant? - They blocked the road, Captain.
What?
It must be 15-20 people from Urfa... They will step aside...
More than that, Captain.
How many? Thirty?
God Damn!
