- No.

You're definitely not from

here.

You don't know the South.

If the international community

does not intervene now

The refugees in overcrowded

camps at the border ...will be

massacred.

She has arrived.

OK.

We, the students, are oppose

against the Nationalist Party

that are trying to evict the refugees

across the borders.

The National Party supports

militias of the Christian right,

who make open threats against

the refugees.

In the South, the refugees

are now armed.

And have the support

of much of the country's Muslim

population.

But you ...you're a Christian.

We are for peace.

Religion has nothing

to do with it.

Nawal!

Put the radio!

They've come to close

the University!

The Nationalists have

closed the campus!

Nawal, come back.

Stay here.

Uncle Charbel, the Nationalists

are closing the campus!

There will be clashes.

Stay with me.

There is shooting outside ...

To the table, girls!

Mom, they're attacking

the university!

It's not a reason not to eat!

Aioua?

Christian villages were attacked

in the South this morning.

May God protect us!

That's why they closed

the university.

In short time, it will

explode here as well.

We'll go to the mountain

until it calms down.

For how long?

We start tomorrow.

The rest of the family

is already there.

And the school?

Anyway, the school will close.

Only God knows how long.

And Le Journal?

Don't be afraid.

Le Journal can survive without

us for a while.

But ideas only survive if someone

is there to defend them!

Exactly, Rafqa.

Exactly.

There are only two orphanages

in the region.

I will join you soon.

You will not go there now!

You had promised Grandma you

would finish your studies.

You heard your father.

It's going to explode across the country

if they attack the camps.

The studies are finished.

I think of him every day.

That's my child.

I want to find him alive.

I'm going to fetch

water from Shadia.

Hurry, Nawal.

- Your name?

- Nawal.

- Nawal what?

- Nawal Marwan.

Where are you going?

South.

What for?

To meet my husband.

Wahab.

You have only daughters?

The older boys are in Kfar

Kout.

You should go with us.

Kfar Kout was attacked

yesterday.

Looking for the orphanage.

You know where is it?

There.

The children?

Where are the children?

You should speak with those

who were there.

The muslim villagers fled

to the camp Deressa.

They fear reprisals will come.

The children may be with them.

Chamseddine and his men killed all the

Christians to avenge the refugees.

Perhaps the children are in Deressa.

Can you take me to the camp in Deressa?

I am a Christian.

My daughter! My daughter!

Mom!

Hi, Simon, it's me!
