(0.00 / 0 votes)Passport, please.
Madam,
your ticket and your passport.
Marji, stop running!
Look! It's Nioucha over there!
Marji, you've really grown up!
Did you bring me a present?
How is Paris?
And the Eiffel Tower?
Welcome to Teheran.
You're here!
Your luggage.
No, it's me!
Come on! They're waiting for us.
I remember.
Back then,
I had a quiet life.
A little girl's life.
I used to love fries with ketchup
and Bruce Lee,
and I had 2 obsessions:
to shave my legs and
to become the last prophetess.
If you put a pen under your tits
and it gets stuck then you're
in deep shit.
If we shake this one,
we can fill a box.
Calm down!
They let me see him last week.
He wasn't a pretty sight.
They told me that they would
release him. It's been 4 years.
Don't worry.
This regime won't last much longer.
There's going to be one heck of a row.
Mom! Marji hurt me!
The dragon's revenge is a
dish best eaten cold!
"I, Marjane, future prophetess,
have decided that:
"One, everybody must have
a good behavior.
"Two, everybody must
preach good words.
"Three, everybody must
do one good deed.
"Four, the poor must be able to
eat one fried chicken everyday.
"Five, no old woman will
suffer ever again."
Marji,
if it's gonna be like that,
I'll be your first disciple.
Really? Great!
How to be sure that
they won't suffer anymore?
It'll be forbidden.
I should have thought about it.
What's going on?
Death to the shah!
Death to the shah!
I knew it!
I knew it!
This is an historic moment!
Yes, daughter.
Your father will be avenged.
The shah will meet his
buddies in Washington.
As for myself,
I think I love the shah.
He's been chosen by God.
Yes! Absolutely!
God himself told me.
The teacher too.
The shah wasn't chosen by God.
Lies!
Shh...
That's what they say.
I'll tell you how it happened.
Truth is that 50 years ago,
the shah's father, an officer,
wanted to overthrow the
Qadjar emperor.
I'll do like Ataturk!
I'll modernize the country.
I'll create a republic!
But the English heard about it.
Hello! Why do you want
to create a republic?
You could be emperor!
Me? Emperor?
Of course!
It's better than president.
You'll have full powers.
A country like yours
needs a strong man like you
to rule it.
Hmm... It's quite true.
And also... you know that
the clergy
is against the republic.
Between us, he's right.
What must I do?
Nothing. You give us the oil.
We'll take care of the rest.
Now, I am the king!
Everything that belong to you is mine.
He was an asshole!
- Oh!
- Yes and no.
He was a dictator,
but he modernized Iran.
He loved his country,
unlike his son, his successor.
I am the king now!
I am the light of the Aryans!
I'll make this country
the most modern of all time!
Yes, the shah's father
has been very hard.
He put your grandpa in prison.
But his son was ten times worse.
Grandpa has been in prison?
Yes! He was a member of
the royal family.
He was a Qadjar prince. The shah's
father took everything from him.
He went to prison because
he was a communist.
My grandpa was a Qadjar prince
and also a communist!
God damn it! You're still alive.
I was worried.
- They shot on people!
- It was hot.
We escaped but we got caught later.
Those sons of bitches
took my films.
- We were at the police station.
- Marji was overexcited.
She was a pain in the neck with the
proletarians, the class struggle
and this bearded man,
"Che Guevero."
The guy who was killed
