- Why else would he rent it?
But we have a unique concept
to make a success of it.
I don't know, man.
You didn't say yes, did you?
- You know my uncle. He won't ask twice.
I'll take you along when we get back.
You can see what I mean.
You see that man? Let's ask him to join us.
No.
- Why not?
If you'd been alone, wouldn't you like
someone to invite you to join him?
Not really.
Hey, sir!
You want to...
You want to eat with us?
Are you Moroccans?
- Yes, we are Moroccans.
You?
- I'm Algerian.
I'm a Tunisian.
- Tunisia.
Beautiful country.
The maker of this meal
really loves you.
This was left from yesterday's wedding.
- Wedding?
Which of you got married?
The one with the suit?
- No, no, no.
My sister.
Your health.
Where are you going?
- Rabat.
We're taking that taxi.
A Mercedes 250.
while you wipe the windscreen.
And you, where are you going?
- Back to my city. Annaba.
I delivered a load to Antwerp.
- It went well?
I've been driving this route for 15 years.
I can drive it with my eyes shut.
What were you carrying?
Life itself, my brother.
Dates.
The bread of the desert.
You know dates were
the first fruit ever cultivated?
Even the Babylonians
were mad about them.
My family has grown them for years.
It's a nice business.
Have you read the Koran?
It says that those
who start the day with seven dates...
...will not be harmed by magic or poison.
That's really good marketing.
You have a moment?
I'll fetch something for you. Wait...
These wonderful dates
are from my brother's garden.
They're not for sale.
Taste them.
Take them with you for on the way.
You know what I'll do first?
It's been ages.
Swim in the sea.
Rabat is near the sea, right?
- Sure. Morocco has wonderful beaches.
And you?
- I have a few appointments.
What kind of appointments?
- Things I have to do.
Like?
- Things for my father.
How long has it been
since you went to Tunisia?
About 6 years.
- I remember the last time you went.
You haven't been back? Why not?
You know, time, money... Things like that.
We used to go every summer by car.
By boat from Marseilles to Binzart.
And now?
My father can't drive that long.
His back?
- Yeah, his back...
He f***ed up his back working in the factory.
For what?
To stay home, being declined, receiving
benefits.
Tickets are expensive,
so I told them to take my little brothers.
Get your driving licence, man.
- How?
It costs 2000 euro.
Where do I get that money?
And with a driving licence,
I'd have to drive people around all day.
If a "rich" family comes from Holland,
they have to pay for everything.
They don't understand
my parents are poor.
