Inland (Gabbla)

- In a sense, he's right! Sorry, but he's right. - He has an idea.

No, no, that's wrong.

There are institutions...

They have the power...

Fethi, Fethi, Fethi... Excuse me, but...

In debates, he tries to think for the people...

to assume the position of a scholar...

so the masses will follow him. It's unacceptable.

- He has experience to bring. - Intellectualism...

The idea of the intellectual thinking in the place of others is wrong.

Intellectualism runs through all of society!

But there are still elites at the forefront,

with interesting ideas.

We should help society understand things.

Help yourself understand things.

So that society helps you understand things

that you have no way of understanding.

- If you want... - But the thing is...

We need to create a movement.

- A real movement... - What we're waiting for is...

a massive movement throughout society...

But do you think...

Do you think there's real hope in that idea?

That's it! A Dionysian movement!

- A movement for life! - Go Fethi!

Hello Athmane.

- Hello Malek! How are you? - Fine, thanks...

If you don't come to the village, I'll have to tell you myself.

- You received a telegram. - Really?

Majid told me so.

- You want me to get it for you? - No, don't go to the trouble...

I'm busy right now, but I'll go later...

I'm having coffee. Do you want some?

- Why not, if it's ready? - Let's go.

Is there any news about the young men from the village who were imprisoned?

Were they released?

Not quite yet.

Toufik and Salim are still in custody.

But the rest of the group was released.

I think the government is afraid that the situation will get worse.

It starts with the baton and ends with hugs.

We're used to it.

Two-step...

like hip hop.

When are they going to trial?

No idea...

Maybe in the next three or four months...

Do you know what they're being accused of?

Disturbing public order...

and damage to public property...

In a place like this...

What are they going to break?

Well, exactly...

what do they break?

At the beginning, people were...

burning tires...

and then when the cops arrived...

they entered City Hall...

and burned all the archives...

You didn't burn down the station?

No...

Why? Are you afraid, Malek?

No, no...

We can't do any more of that right now.

If we'd gone that far, there'd be none of us left.

And now? What will you do?

Now Malek,

we need to organize with everyone...

who comprises the democracy.

We're much too isolated here.

Good luck.

Oh my beloved, how I loved you.

I did everything you told me to do.

Since you hurt my reputation,

people are starting to talk.

The negative mind is always suspicious.

It suffers all its life.

We'll sell what we have and you can take what's left.

Sign here.

This is dedicated in honor of Sheikha Djenia!

- Good evening. - Good evening.

One ticket to Oran.

She wants to live! She can't become a kamikaze...

She doesn't want to die, she wants to live.

You must be with them!

- Because if you're not with them... - We agree with you.

- We'll be forgotten by history. - We agree.

- Long live life! - And death to death!

I have something to say:

When chaos occurs somewhere,

and no one intervenes...

If the intellectual class is supposed to...

Where is the intellectual class?

There is no intellectualism class!

There is intellectualism throughout all of society...

Sorry, sorry, sorry!

The "intellectual" does not exist!

Intellectualism runs throughout society!

Everyone thinks.

What matters is what we do with these thoughts.

Together, that's it! There's too much isolation.

What does Naïm have to say?

Long live life and death to death!

We need you to be alive!

My grandma talks like you...

No, sorry... So what? Your grandma, when she talks...

Your grandma understands things too!

Going back to the discussion...

You know that we're in a very delicate, dangerous phase...

The authorities... Excuse me, Chawki.

The authorities aren't going to help empower us.

I'm waiting for the authorities!

But we're talking about this! What can be done about this?

What can be done?

What are we doing?

Why are we having this conversation?

We're here to figure out what to do.

What to do.

I'll tell you what to do.

Wait, wait!

I declare that the century will be female.

I want to say, with the utmost conviction,

that I will no longer be a man,

but a hermaphrodite!

I hear what you're saying.

- Hear, hear! - - Everyone listen to Naïm!

I hear what you're saying,

and I say that I, too, am a hermaphrodite!

- Malek! How are you? - How are you, Rachida?

Good. It's been so long since we've seen you.

- Is Aziz there? - Yes. Are you expecting him?

- Yes. - Go ahead. You know the way.

- Rachida! - Yes.

Please, a bottle of water, tea, and two coffees.

Malek,

I'll be brief with you.

We've just acquired a new mission

on the Monts de Daïa.

Whether we agree,

our clients are under a lot of pressure.

It can't be changed. Save your comments for later.

The town is located approximately

thirty kilometers southwest of Saïda.

There's an old municipal road and nothing beyond it.

A study was conducted there about 10 years ago...

But unfortunately...

everything was stopped...

after the two surveyors were killed.

Since then,

no one has wanted to go back there.

Pardon, Aziz,

were you part of this study?

No. Well, that's it.

It's true that the region is still at risk.

Too much crime, too many dead...

Nothing to defend as a village.

Why? Is the man in charge of making decisions...

from the area?

It doesn't matter.

What interests me...

is to respond to the official reaction.

Don't forget...

that the office of Annaba has begun to make decisions.

Where is this headed?

Soon the Europeans will be involved, too.

Give me the cards.

Here they are. Okay.

So... here's the region.

Here's the village.

You know what they want?

They want to know the feasibility

of extending power lines

along the capital of Wilaya.

There isn't much time to conduct this study.

They've been waiting fifty years.

They can wait a little longer.

Nevertheless, the study of feasibility...

isn't an official launching of building plans.

But that can wait.

- I can't speak for the locals. - You can, Malek.

- I speak for the region. - You'll have to be patient.

There were riots...

and they're afraid of a repeat incident.

Our vehicle is broken down...

Samir took it...

to the mechanic for repairs.

It will be ready tomorrow night.

It works out well for him,

he'll leave in two days.

Who'll go with me on this mission?

Who would you like to work with you?

I'd prefer Samir,

but he's busy.

He'll join you later.

What can I do, starting by myself?

What are you going to do?

You can at least go clean the Saharan cabin.

You can also get back in contact with local authorities.

Lakhdar, paperwork isn't really my thing.

Who said you had to do paperwork?
