A NETFLIX SERIES

I talked to Bashir.

If you come back, they will forgive you, on one condition.

You must bring Pia and Nadav.

But that's impossible.

What the hell have you done? They came to me... the fucking Hamas!

They just want to sit down with you.

Yeah. Tell them not to come near me again.

I can't meet them.

Arik and I, we...

Pia... she's our daughter.

The only way to save her is for Arik to get involved.

Go!

We're gonna sit here and watch them die, are we?

If they survive captivity, who knows how many prisoners

Hamas will want to set them free?

I know those coordinates.

There used to be a smuggling tunnel, but we blew it up two years ago.

Hmm.

But why aren't they coming out? I thought you said the tunnel was blocked.

I don't know.

Could it be that they've been taken by Hamas again?

Hmm, or their pursuers have already caught them.

I hope, for their sake and ours,

they haven't fallen into the hands of the Hamas.

Run!

Go!

- Karim! - Come on! Go, go!

Go, go, go!

- Karim, they're coming! - Please, please.

Keep it on. Keep it on.

Let's go, let's go!

Quickly!

Today, we bear witness to an extraordinary act

in one of history's defining dramas.

As this is the last meeting before the hearing,

there are a few things I need you to focus on.

What?

I don't have to repeat that you must not reveal that Sidi's gone.

- No, you don't have to repeat it. - Good.

Secondly, the police have still not revealed

in which courthouse the hearing is taking place.

- They want to keep a low profile. - Yes, but I need to know.

Eidsvoll, 10:30.

Thanks. Here.

Use this. My number is in there.

The other phone is tapped. I hope you know that.

- Okay. - Good.

Soon...

all this will be over.

Nadav?

Nadav?

Nadav!

Nadav, answer me!

Shh... We're in Gaza.

Mama.

It's okay, dear.

I have good news.

Israel approved the operation being done in Jerusalem.

- Praise the lord. - The bad news...

They usually take their time issuing these permits.

But she doesn't have the time.

I know.

Yes?

I'm on my way.

Sorry.

I should go.

Please...

What should I do?

Let's pray that the Israelis hurry up with the permit.

Can you at least tell us where we're going?

What's going on?

Fuck. It's fucking Hamas.

Fuck.

You're staying here.

It's okay, it's okay. It's okay.

- This is a mistake! - Shut up and sit.

Careful! He's wounded.

Change your ugly clothes.

- Excuse me, Mr... - Pia, come on.

- Pia... - No. It's fine.

Thank you for getting us out.

- I mean it, really. - Wait.

Just talk to Bashir. I spoke with him.

I did.

You're to remain here. Bashir's orders.

Karim...

Karim! Karim, listen to me!

Want me to kill you now or do you want to wait for Bashir?

I was promised. Bashir gave me... his word.

He's coming to have a chat with you.

Karim... Karim!

Wait a minute! Wait!

Karim!

Karim!

Can someone please explain to me what's going on?

We're prisoners. That's what's going on.

You can't be serious!

That's the way it is.

He held up his part of the deal. He brought the hostages to you.

He shouldn't have gone to Daesh and Ali in the first place.

- You promised to let him go. - No, I promised I wouldn't kill him.

- I'm begging you, Bashir. - Don't bother.

He's just a kid.

He's an adult who made a big mistake.

Now, he has to redeem himself.

Redeem himself? Redeem himself, how?

Leave it to me. Wait and see.

I want to see him.

Not possible.

The hostages and your son will remain in isolation.

Layla...

I understand your concern.

Gaza mothers have suffered a lot.

I, too, want less suffering.

That's why I'm doing this.

And that's why... you're the only one who can help.

You're the only one who can set your son free.

What do you mean?

As you might have noticed,

we haven't announced to the world that we have the hostages.

Why?

We are going to pretend that Daesh still have them.

So, Daesh's list of demands still stands:

the release of the prisoners and Abu Salim.

That means, you won't release my son.

So, the only one who will know...

is your Israeli friend.

Arik?

I want to send him a message.

You told us we'll be freed.

We were going home.

That's what she said.

That's what who said?

Never mind.

Yusuf...

That's what who said?

My mother.

Your mother. What?

What does she have to do with it?

Yusuf, who's your mother?

Layla al-Kalani.

Wait. Layla, my mother's friend?

Is that Layla from the Oslo talks?

Yes.

You know, I called Layla before we left for Sinai.

Yeah, I just... I wanted to know if it was safe.

If... If it seemed like a good idea.

You called Layla?

Layla said yes.

I...

Oh, my...

Did you overhear us?

Yusuf?

Did you overhear us, Yusuf?

You? You were the one who told ISIS?

Did you?

- I... - Answer me!

Did you?

Fuck!

Fuck you, Yusuf!

Pia!

You little shit!

Wait, wait, wait.

Okay. It's oka...

Die!

- Fuck you! - I didn't...

Fuck... you!

Pia, calm down!

It's okay. Calm down.

It's okay. It's okay.

- I didn't plan... - It's all your fault!

Shh. It's okay.

It's okay. Look at me.

- I'm really sor... - Shut up! Shut the fuck up!

I'm sorry!

Pia, come on.

Layla?

I...

What is it?

Layla, talk to me. What's wrong?

- They are... - They are in Gaza.

The kids... They are here.

Oh... my God. Are you sure?

I was just at Bashir's. He has them.

Pia, is she... is she okay?

Yes.

I think she is.

That's amazing news. I'm coming now.

- Alex... - Yes?

Why... Why are you crying?

Layla?

Bashir won't let them go.

Why?

He wants a message delivered to Arik.

Oh, my God.

He's going to use them as some fucking leverage?

We have to do what he says.

Heaven's sake.

Alex...

If we do what he says

and Arik does too...

Pia will be free.

I think...

...there is a way to solve this.

BAKKE & TANGEN LAW FIRM

Alex?

Wh-what do you mean?

How could it be that we don't have any clue?

We've absolutely no idea

where those kids are and who the hell has them.

Look, Arik,

we don't know what really happened in the tunnel.

I wouldn't...

rule out the possibility that the hostages just remained in there.

Their bodies, or...? What do you mean?

There's no way of knowing what happened down there.

I'm sorry, I have... to go now.

Arik?

Thanks.

What's going on?

Pia and Nadav are in Gaza.

- Bashir has them. - Fuck!

Fuck.

Why haven't they gone public?

They won't for now.

They only want to meet you.

And if you don't,

they will tell that you are Pia's father.

Arik...

Listen, you can't fall apart now.

Hello?

Has something happened?

No, no, no, I'm coming. I'll be right there.

Bye.

I need to go.

Who was it?

Dana.

What's going on?

I don't know how to say it, Dana. I...

Okay, listen.

Yesterday, Alex was here.

I have to tell you, back then, I already had a feeling, back in '93.

I... I didn't say anything, but it was like

all sorts of little things that had me suspicious.

You'd come back from those talks in Oslo.

You were... You didn't come back the same person.

You were a stranger. Even the way you said her name.

Alex told you?

Yes, she told me about Pia and the rescue mission you planned.

I know everything.

Alex wants to save her daughter.

And from what I understood, it depends on some deal with the Hamas you won't accept.

So, she came here and asked me to convince you to do it.

I can't believe it.

- What gives her the right to come here? - What...?

I was so humiliated. I was so angry with you.

And I couldn't see Alex,

and how she was doing everything she could to protect her family.

And I suddenly realised that if this secret were to get out,

what would happen to my family?

Huh? How can I protect my family?

I know what I have to do.

Dana, I just have to come clean about it all.

Everything.

About that damned rescue attempt, about Pia...

I really admire you for your... noble feelings.

But it's a little late for that, isn't it, Arik?

What good will it do if you tell everyone now?

Maybe it will ease your conscience,

but exactly what good will it do for this family?

What good will it do?

What about all this?

All we've worked for and built all our lives.

Our whole family, this house!

What good will this confession do? Will it really save our family?

No! I'm telling you, it won't!

You're not going to say a word. Not one word out your mouth!

This whole rescue mission was treason. You could go to jail. You know this!

What about Oren and Alma?

They will forever be known as children of a traitor.

Like the mark of Cain, no synagogue or getting married.

They won't be able to walk outside!

Is that what you want? I won't let you ruin our family!

That's not going to happen.

The only thing that can stop this now is if you go and save Pia.

Do not say no to me!

Go and put an end to this whole miserable story.

I can't lie anymore. Don't you understand?

Actually, you've been lying your whole life.

It's time you stopped.

But not now.

Go and end this...

quietly.

- Miss me already? - Who are you?

Karl, my friend...

trust me on this.

Want to see Pia again, you have to do what I tell you.

Yes, yes.

But why Abu Salim?

Abu Salim, alive and free, is a big threat.

You... You're gonna fucking kill him, aren't you?

At the courthouse?

This man is someone my employers have been wanting to...

get... for a long time.

So... you belong to the Hamas?

My employers also have your daughter.

Do you understand?

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Just remember that.

Mum, you're really slow.

Alma, you get up late and complain that I'm slow?

- I'm sorry. - Never mind.

- Bye. Have a nice day. - Bye.

Wait, Alma, your water bottle.

Another kiss.

- Bye. - Bye.

Bye, Dad.

Hey.

Hmm.

You're still not sure about it, huh?

Am I right?

I thought we were through with this. I thought it was done.

Arik, you don't have a choice.

I can resign, Dana.

I can say it's for personal reasons.

We can live a different life.

A simpler one. I...

I can...

I...

I...

Me, me, me. Why is it always about that?

You can resign. You can say this is about us.

It's about the life we've built here. You have to do this to save that.

You know what will happen if this gets out?

Alright, so make sure it doesn't go there.

Listen to what they have to say,

and keep it under the radar, like you've done until now.

Go save your daughter.

Go save me and you.

Alex, I told you, I'm doing what I can.

What you did was unforgivable.

But I will meet them to save my family.

And it has to be on my own terms.

This is what I'll present in court tomorrow.

A short summary containing all the arguments in favour of a retrial.

Very good.

You're leaving already?

My job here now is done, but I'll see you tomorrow.

We'll travel together to the hearing.

What a day that will be,

God willing.

Does it... get easier?

Does what get easier, Karl?

The killing and the bloodshed.

Dispensing with human life as you see fit.

"Slay them wherever you find them.

Drive them out of the places whence they drove you out,

for persecution is worse than slaughter,

and fight them until fitnah is no more,

and religion is for Allah."

You see, Karl...

righteous violence?

Yeah, it's, um... it's never easy.

But, sometimes, it's a moral duty.

Let's hope you're right.

- Who was that? - The daughter of your client.

- How come she's here? - She just arrived in Norway.

From a refugee camp in Lebanon or something.

- And what about her mother? - Dead, as far as I know.

WE WANT THEM HOME

Anat is sleeping.

- You know, I told you... - I know, I know.

She doesn't want to see me.

Sit.

Please.

Listen.

There is no way I can undo...

the hurt I've caused.

Hmm.

I just want to tell you something.

What?

Your son,

he's alive.

Pia and Nadav, they're alive.

Oh, blessed be the Lord.

But it's important

that you and Anat keep it a secret... for now.

- I'll wake Anat. - No, no. Let her sleep.

You can tell her later.

Thank you.

Arik says yes.

But he won't meet with anyone associated with you or Hamas.

I didn't really get...

what you just said.

He agreed to meet someone you trust... who doesn't belong to the organisation.

Have someone specific in mind?

- Me. - Come on!

- You must be joking! - I have a vested interest.

Who could be more motivated to make this work?

Where will you meet him?

In Jerusalem.

Bashir... this is a rotten deal.

I don't trust her, and I don't trust the Israelis.

You're out of line.

We can't agree to this, we can't do it.

I said, you're out of line.

Be quiet!

- If you betray us or betray Gaza... - I won't betray you.

But if I succeed...

you leave me alone...

and release my son Yusuf.

You have an idea to get out of Gaza, right?

I need paperwork...

and permits.

Sorry... but the Israelis tightened the security at the crossings.

Only medical staff are allowed to cross.

However, if you make it...

...I have a mission for you.

Your ID and medical permit.

When is the operation?

Tomorrow.

Who's the family member?

The mother.

Turn around and look at me.

Turn around and look at me.

Show me your ID.

Mum...

- Mum. - I'm here, my love.

Can't you see she's sick?

Mum.

Monster.
