Ah!
Mama!
Go protect your mother.
Go, go!
El comandante Alvarez
Rodriguez,
...we are here to pacify
any reluctant hideouts
between Morocco and Spain,
choose your son and heir,
or your wife who can
bear you more heirs.
Take me and spare them.
Mtale.
-How are you doing?
-Good.
So I was told that we'd be
able to find happiness,
I'm not feeling
too happy after that.
Hmm. Expectations.
Expectations.
I was talking about
the bliss that comes from being
free from attachments
and expectations.
People who live their life
with the goal of the pursuit of
happiness seldom ever find it.
There is great
conflict within you,
and peace is the absence
of conflict.
So what?
Become a pacifist?
Pacifism is nonsense.
Sometimes you must engage
in conflict in order to end it.
Everyone else already seems
to be in such a peaceful state,
is something wrong with me?
Discord is not uncommon
for those who are not aligned
or disconnected
from their roots.
Do you understand that?
But you said detachment
was essential.
Meaning, letting go
of material things that bind you
to one space and one time.
But disconnection is like
the lonely astronaut with
the cut cord floating
forever through empty space.
It is worse than attachment.
Look, I came here to make
connections to the more subtle
things and the higher planes
of consciousness, right?
Look, any of my achievements,
my wealth,
the influence I've gained,
none of it means anything
to me anymore. Why?
This is not a packaged
tour where you can ask
for your money back if you
don't discover inner peace.
People come here
for an orientation of the soul,
and that would appear to be
exactly what you've lost.
I cannot answer the questions
that you do not already
know the answer to.
I am simply a gatekeeper,
opening a door for you
to walk through.
But it is you who has to walk
through that door.
So wherever
your vision takes you
is a real place
with real answers.
You must go there.
Trace your roots.
A vision cannot be a place
that you have never been.
Well, I've never been to a
castle in the Moroccan desert.
Well,
maybe not in this lifetime.
You'll have to go further back
than that.
Come.
The gate is now open.
This will not be
your last vision.
This is simply your
subconscious mind guiding you
in the direction
of what you see.
Happiness is the occasional
accidental byproduct
of the correct pursuit of peace.
Never forget that.
Hey, I know you guys
were going to make a move
on Siduri Energies.
I would have called my broker.
You know, next time, give me
-a heads up on that, huh?
-Oh, so...
I don't think
I can do this anymore.
What?
Nothing.
What do you think?
Good evening, Senator.
Thank you so much for coming.
Beautiful piece, right?
NAME Beauty?
Is that what you see?
To be honest, I got this
collection at an art Basel
last year, but I don't know
who the artist is.
And why would you describe it
as beautiful?
Well, these men's bodies,
they're contorted.
Like they're under some kind
of weight or constraint.
Their faces have known joy in
a very specific kind of a way.
Like,
almost like they know of love,
but have none.
And you find that beautiful?
Well, perhaps compelling is
a better word.
Hmm. Mahi Binebine.
Alec Touati.
No, the artist.
His name is Mahi Binebine.
- He's from Morocco.
- Alec.
I was just having a...
Just having a good conversation
with this guy about painting.
Do you know the artist,
Moroccan?
There he is, the boss,
the friend that made us
a lot of money.
Alec Touati.
How are we doing today?
Amazing.
So, I know that we've barely
had a moment to bask
in the glory of our
latest conquest.
But as we know, our brand is
now being sandbagged
in the press
by environmentalists.
Look, we got Siduri Energies
for a song because gas and oil
is the least publicly
supported sector
of the entire economy.
And, yes,
that includes arms and pharma.
So, Laura...
I've decided that
we should pivot and put
all of our profits into solar.
I know, I know.
Not very profitable
in the short term,
but ten years from now.
Just look at the data.
Thank you.
-Too soon?
-Yeah.
Come with me.
We just brought in a billion
dollars on a deal that is
the opposite of
what you just presented.
How can we sell this
to the shareholders?
Well, our shareholders
aren't the only shareholders
in the world, okay?
Besides, most of them are
still living in the 80s like
nothing has any consequences.
Whose kid is that?
Alec, this is serious right now.
If you can't get them
behind me on this, I'm out.
What the hell are you
talking about?
Drama is not really
your strong suit.
-Put it to a vote.
-No way.
You lose.
You lose.
My parachute is one third,
remember?
I can do this on my own
if I wanted to.
Put it to a vote.
Make them commit to a position.
We don't need to drag
things out.
He's here. Okay.
Thank you, Steve.
I'll call you back.
I quit today.
No more douchey rich guys
talking about money
or the stocks or...
Alec!
I'm in trouble.
You quit?
Just like that?
Well, it's been on my mind since
the retreat, if I'm honest.
Without telling me?
I'm talking to you.
Look, my heart wasn't
in it anymore, okay?
You mean more time for you
doing things behind my back?
Oh, come on, Nina.
Do you have any idea
how relationships work?
I don't understand
what's going on with you.
You're completely distant
since you came back
from this ayahuasca retreat.
I hope you find whatever
you're looking for.
-Hi.
-Hello, sir.
Alec Touati,
are you going to check me in?
Welcome to the memory apartment.
Thanks.
How are you doing?
Can I get like
a nice scotch or something?
Thanks.
Hello, buddy. You good?
I'm fine, I'm fine. I just...
I'm fine.
Don't die on us, man.
Right before I lost
control of the buggy, I saw...
I saw a castle.
- Why is it on your tour?
- Castle?
There is no castle around here.
It was a castle. It was on
the edge of the dunes, but...
-I saw it.
-I assure you.
If there were a castle,
I would happily add it
to the tour.
Yeah, this is...
That's what I saw.
Who gave you this?
I drew it.
You drew it just like that,
from your imagination?
Not exactly, but...
Well, yes, actually.
But this is what I saw,
right before I crashed.
This palace was built in 1840,
by Prince Illuminati.
What happened to it?
During the Spanish invasion,
they and pilfered.
And over time, much of
the artifacts have been reserved
in the shadows of
the European rules.
And once in a while,
in a museum.
But the crown jewel
of the Illuminati palace
has never been accounted for.
The crown is neither
a crown nor a jewel.
It is a sword, sworn to
the heir of Prince Illuminati.
The very sword he insisted
to be beheaded with.
That's why I'm here.
I'm meant to find it.
Why do I get the sense
you don't think I'm crazy?
If you ask any of
the women here,
they tell you that the caretaker
can speak to the dead.
So there must be something
to it.
So where is it?
It's not very far from here,
but certainly not where
you had the accident.
The Saudi princess tried
to have it rebuilt,
but she left before
completing the work.
How long has it been vacant?
I will not use the term vacant,
but at least 20 years now.
As a matter of fact,
I know the banker who has the
tank list task of selling it.
He says that for many years now,
he couldn't even give it away.
Why is that?
Haunted.
He says that every time
he takes new buyers,
something strange happens,
and then they back out.
But apparently he's got
someone new who is interested.
Omar?
If you want, I can take you
there and meet the caretaker.
He can take you around.
He's a nice guy.
How does that sound?
That sounds great. Yeah.
Um, I'm--
You wanna go see
my future castle, huh?
Ibrahim, why don't you
take the rest of the group
back to Marrakech?
I can take you and meet
the old man.
That will save you a good hour.
Yeah, yeah, great.
We're buying out all the other
boogie renters in the area.
We're also opening
a McDonald's and making it
a little more modern.
But the locals
don't mind you basically
bastardizing
an ancient landmark?
Listen to you.
I'm an entrepreneur.
And no one gives a sh*t
about an empty palace.
I'm creating jobs,
I'm bringing in tourists,
and I'm paying taxes.
If you want to call
that bastardization, fine.
But it's people like me
that rule the cold economies.
I mean, in the end,
what good is a so-called
heritage if there's no one
around to enjoy it?
Right.
So Ibrahim mentioned a ghost
that likes to interfere
in the negotiations.
Yeah, you know what?
I've been there.
Some weird sh*t goes on
in that place.
I don't know if it's just
in a scene screened with people
because he doesn't
want to lose his home.
But for those who actually
believe in these ghost stories,
and from
a commercial standpoint,
that's not necessarily
a bad thing that it's haunted.
It just needs to be crowded
and noisy all the time.
So you got your
finances in place, etc.?
It's not done yet.
I still have to find
another financial partner.
Well, I can get the bank
to agree to cover the cost
as a business loan
and buy them out later.
And what's to stop the bank
charging you a fortune
if they know
you're already committed?
They need to hold an auction
to justify the bid,
to avoid it looking shady.
And who's going to show up
to that auction?
No one.
I'll be able to buy
the whole place outright
for the price of a couscous.
Yeah, that's not a bad plan,
actually.
Papa!
You're not coming?
Hell, no.
-What are you doing?
-Shh!
Listen.
Schubert?
But unless the ghost
knows how to play piano,
I'd say the old man is home.
Okay.
Thanks for the ride.
Are you looking
for something?
Pardon the intrusion. I, uh...
I was just hoping
to look around.
If you're from the bank,
I've already told Mr. Cohen
a dozen times,
you must call ahead.
No, no, I'm not interested
in buying the castle. I, uh...
Well, as you can see,
it's mostly empty, and run down.
I guess I've just come
to admire it.
Well, there's a nice, um,
view from the tower.
This way.
No doubt this place has
countless stories to tell, huh?
I wouldn't know,
I'm just the caretaker.
You'd know more than me.
Hello?
I'm very popular today.
Um, I have a visitor.
Would-- Would you mind if I just
looked around a little more?
No, just stay with--
in this half.
I wouldn't want you to get lost.
-All right.
-Hmm.
Thanks.
Take care of our son, my love!
No!
-You cannot go back there!
-Oh, sh**t!
Sorry, um...
Sorry, I-- I-- should go.
Thank you, I've taken up
too much of your time.
Hmm.
Hey!
Well, I wish I could
be as confident as you
that the sale will never
happen, but I'm not.
I told you I don't want
to talk about this any longer.
Why do you keep
asking me about this?
This ancient history?
Papa, I'm not--
I'm trying to tell you.
And I would appreciate it if you
call your friend at the bank.
At least he understands you.
- Hi.
- Hi.
I-- I was hoping to, uh...
Can-- Can I get a massage,
this one?
Uh, one second, please.
Great, thanks.
Please, follow me.
Okay.
You can just put your clothes
on the chair over there.
Someone will be
with you shortly.
Okay, all right, thank you.
Hi.
How are you today?
I'm good.
Relax.
That's great.
Ah!
You okay? Did I hit something?
No.
No, sorry, I think I, uh...
I think I fell asleep.
- I see.
- Weird dream. Sorry.
Do you want me to continue?
Yes, please.
So, what's your name?
Hanna.
Hanna.
- Yes.
- It's a pretty name.
Do you have any
foreigners coming in
off the street like me?
This is Marrakesh.
There's a lot of tourists.
I'm Alec, by the way.
Nice to meet you, Alec.
I'm sorry, um...
Have we met?
No. I don't think so.
It's just you seem
really familiar to me.
Look, if you're not going
to let me do my job,
then I'm going to have
to ask you to leave.
You would not be
the first person
coming here for more
than a massage.
Oh, no, no, no, that--
that's not why I'm here.
-I'm--
-So you want something.
But not that.
But not the massage, either.
It's, uh...
It's hard to explain.
Just, let me get dressed.
Um...
What are you really here for?
Is it that bloody castle?
Are you a developer?
Are you a lawyer?
Okay.
Yes, it's about the castle,
but I'm not with any
of those people
that are bothering you.
I'm just, I'm trying to find out
more about the palace.
It's personal. I, um...
I was hoping the caretaker
could offer some answers,
but in the end I just ended up
with more questions.
Wait, so you met
my father already?
Did you follow me here?
This is really creepy.
-I know.
-Look.
I don't want any trouble.
I'm sorry if I was rude to you,
but now you have to go.
Wait, please let me explain.
I-- I-- I had an, um--
an experience.
Even if I was interested
in your story, which I'm not...
I saw the Prince Amnati.
Look, I had...
a vision, okay?
Of the Prince, the castle.
It was horrible, intense.
It was...
it was so real,
it was like I was there.
Look, I left my girlfriend,
my business, my home.
Because it feels like
I'm supposed to be here.
Like, like, the castle
is calling to me.
Or something. And I know that
that sounds insane.
But it's the truth.
Look, if you're trying
to gain my sympathy
with your stories
of visions and ghosts
just to get to my father,
well, shame on you.
My father, his stories,
everything he's talking about,
these talking spirits,
it's not real.
It just gives him comfort.
In real life,
he couldn't stop fate.
But in this world, he feels
like he can make a difference.
I don't want to see him
taken advantage of.
It's not what's happening.
With all due respect,
just let this be.
I'm sorry. I didn't, uh...
It wasn't my intention
to cause any trouble.
Have a pleasant day, Mr. Alec.
f*ck.
What did you mean when you said
you belonged to the castle?
I wish I could answer that,
but, um...
I've never understood
less in my life.
Look, I meant everything I said.
But I know a whistle
when I see one.
I believe you believe
what you're saying.
My father believes
what he's saying.
Everybody around here,
they all believe in some ghost
or whatever they need
to get through the day,
and that's okay with me.
I don't want anything
to do with it.
I can hear a "but"
coming a mile away.
But...
I...
You've said something
that I've heard before.
About what?
Well, my father, he wasn't told
that one day a guy would come
who belongs to the castle.
He was told that the castle
belongs to the guy.
Told by who?
The castle.
Look, obviously, if you're here,
you're not going to just get
back on your little private jet.
So I'll tell you everything
I know about the place.
And you'll see, it's just
a castle like any other.
Right.
Where are you staying?
At the-- At the Mamounia.
Well, I'll meet you there.
After work.
Thank you.
Madame Hanna.
How lovely to see you again.
Have you reconsidered
our proposition
to supervise our spa services?
Actually, I'm quite happy
where I am.
-Thank you.
-Of course you are.
Certainly,
you've always preferred
to do things your own way.
Money and the dignity
that comes with independence
are rarely compatible.
Yet, the invitation
remains an open one.
As much as I would
love to stay here
and talk to you about
nothing, Mr. Blet,
I have a rendezvous
with Mr. Alec Touati.
And I would hate
to make him wait.
Mr. Touati is staying
in La Suite Al Mamoun.
I believe it is the same one
your mother stayed in.
If I'm not mistaken.
Alec.
You ready?
Many years ago, my father was
the pianist at the lounge here.
Did your mother
work here too?
No.
She was a guest.
With her husband.
The Saudi prince.
The Saudi prince. So...
So, wait a minute.
Your mother is the famous
Saudi princess?
But Nassim is your father, so...
Yes.
She was Moroccan by birth.
She dreamed of being
a concert pianist.
But my grandparents were poor,
and very traditional.
At 14, she was performing at the
fundraiser for poor families.
It was even shown on television.
My grandmother believed her gift
would attract gentlemen
of a higher class.
Unfortunately, she was right.
This is a jazz lounge, Nassim.
We've already talked about this.
You have a list of songs
we want you to play.
Please, stick to the list.
Jean-Jacques Goldman,
this is jazz, to you?
Well, neither is Mozart.
Schubert.
Of course, I knew
it was Schubert.
But this is not the point.
If it were my decision,
we would just put on
an audio cassette, and you
would be out on the street.
Mr. Belt.
Oh, Mr. Goodman.
The princess was enjoying
the beautiful classical music.
His Highness wishes
to keep her happy.
Your Highness, it's Schubert.
My favorite composer, as well.
Schubert.
Stick to Schubert.
I-- I don't know,
he just doesn't strike me
as a romantic type.
Well, you'd be surprised.
You know, he told me
a lot about those days.
It was love at first sight,
like in one of those
old romantic movies.
And now it's swipe left,
swipe right.
So, how did your father
charm a princess
away from her life of luxury?
Well, being a princess
is no fairytale.
And my father was a handsome,
charming musician.
Now you understand my doubts.
Hmm.
Old romantic movies, huh?
Yeah.
So who was the star?
Your father or your mother?
I would say
a little bit of both.
Hi.
A glass of white wine, please.
You were here last year
with your husband.
Yeah, you remember.
I do, I remember your eyes.
You know, my manager was asking
me to play something poppy
for the guests,
but you told him
-you wanted me to play--
-Schubert.
Wow, you know your music.
-What do they call you?
-Noor.
Noor.
I'm Nassim.
Nassim.
You're here on
your own this year.
Yeah, my husband
is very busy elsewhere.
But you are here every day.
Mostly, yeah.
You know what?
Out of all the things
guests want me to play,
you're the first person
that's asked me to play
something I like playing.
-I don't believe that.
-I'm serious.
I would never lie about music.
Just about music?
If you come by tomorrow,
I will play whatever
you want me to play.
Sounds lovely.
Wow.
Not bad, huh?
It's beautiful.
Would you like a drink?
I have a better idea.
Okay.
You ever try it?
Rock and hash.
I heard it's some of
the best stuff in the world.
Is it legal?
Everything is forbidden,
yet everything is done.
Right.
So does all this mean that
you're some kind of...
half-princess or what?
It doesn't work like that.
And I wouldn't want to be.
I was wondering how they, um...
You know.
Well, you have no idea how much
these two had to do
just to be alone.
Well, I'm sure
this is kind of shabby
compared to what
your husband shows you.
On the contrary, this place,
I mean, even in ruins,
feels so much more peaceful.
Yeah, it is.
So why did
this place never sell?
I guess it hasn't found
its rightful owner.
What do you mean?
Well, many buyers have come,
but they always get discouraged.
What about your family?
Well, my family's
moved on from this region.
My father, I never really knew,
but he was an American musician
my mother met in.
And my mother passed away
when I was a teenager.
And I'm an only child.
You know what's the good thing
about being an only child?
Is that you never
have to share your toys.
Spoiled.
So, how did this place
become yours?
It's not mine, um...
Legally, I'm allowed to stay
here until there's an owner.
Wait, you live here?
There's djinns in here?
It's not like white
sheets floating around.
But there definitely is
a presence here.
I'm not sure.
Why don't they just
leave this place?
Maybe it's a lost memory
they're trying to recapture.
Maybe there's someone that they
feel that they need to protect.
Listen, I'm not religious.
All I know is that
I often feel that
I'm summoned
to deliver messages.
This is so beautiful.
Yes, you are.
Why do I feel like
I always belong here?
If that's how you feel, then
it's because you do belong here.
With me.
Let me ask you something.
Why so doubtful your father
can communicate with ghosts?
Wouldn't you be?
And by the way, he would
never use the word ghost.
Okay.
And, uh, I know
I only met him briefly,
but he definitely didn't seem
like he was... crazy.
If anything,
I'm the crazy one here.
Yes.
That's my theory, too.
So then what?
Then she bought the castle.
She bought the castle?
Just like that?
Well, it depends who you ask.
My father's version
might be a little bit more...
entertaining.
The piano guy.
And what is your affiliation
with the property?
I made a promise to the estate
that I'd look after the place.
Well, the arrangement is
a little more complicated
than that, wouldn't you say?
Her Highness is interested
in acquiring the property
if the price is reasonable.
She is concerned that
the cost of the...
necessary rehabilitation
will be prohibitive.
Well...
That is quite reasonable.
I find it curious that
no one has made an offer
if that is the correct number.
What's the catch?
You're right.
There are some, uh...
unusual conditions for the sale.
The States can make
the transaction
an extended
bureaucratic nightmare
if there is concern about the
cultural integrity of the site.
So, whatever Her Majesty plans
to do with it,
the palace must remain
essentially intact.
You can forget about the
swimming pools and discotheques.
And... and there is
one more thing.
There is, um, an element.
An element?
Yes, uh, an element.
As much as we like clothes,
I must be transparent with you.
This property might
not be worth the trouble.
There have been
20 interested buyers
since I've been with the bank.
Obviously, this means
19 prospective buyers
before you have passed.
Element?
Yeah.
Yes, the element.
The castle wishes to convey
that the princess...
is always welcome
within these walls.
It will seem, should you
still wish to proceed,
that the sale of the castle
has just been approved.
Congratulations, Mr. Goodman.
I will turn this place
into a shrine devoted to you.
And all the forbidden lovers,
long after we're gone,
will come here.
That smile.
So, the whole castle being
a live thing...
you don't buy it?
Why would he lie?
The ghost of Prince Amnati?
Yeah.
Because country folks
are very superstitious.
I'm skeptical too.
After the past few weeks,
I'm starting to think that
there's some things
you can't always explain.
Well, good for you.
I had religious garbage
shoved down my throat
since I was a child by
people who said
they were my family
but k*lled my mother.
Thank God I inherited from her
the ability to think for myself.
It was hell
keeping this a secret.
How did you...
You're amazing.
It's such
an amazing story.
It's like, um...
I don't know. People don't...
just meet and fall in love
like that anymore. It's...
Now it's apps and everything
seems so much more calculated.
I didn't meet
my boyfriend through an app.
I met him through friends
at the club.
You got a boyfriend, huh?
Well...
technically we're...
we're married,
but it's complicated.
Jesus Christ.
I'm just kidding.
For a second there,
I thought I was, like,
the Nassim in this story.
I'm not seeing anyone.
Good.
Do you think our...
this construction is gonna
be done before this baby comes?
Because I'm a little worried.
Don't worry, my love.
It's all gonna work out.
Could you ask your friend
what's gonna happen?
My invisible friends?
I don't think
it works like that.
You have to try.
To believe our future
is predetermined
is a bit much for me, you know?
So you think our soul continues
to exist somewhere after we die?
Yes.
Do you think
our fate is written?
I don't think the future
is written for anyone.
I'm not even sure if God knows.
All I know is that I love you...
and I'm very happy.
I wish I shared your optimism.
Right now he's infatuated with
some Lebanese heiress and...
that could change at any moment.
I don't understand why he just
doesn't pay everything outright.
Wouldn't that be easier for him?
Because he's not stupid.
Money is how
he controls everything.
And I'm still expected to be
an ambassador for his family.
That's why he indulged in
any of this project at all.
You just carry on doing
what you're doing.
You don't see the big deal?
No.
Nassim, you can be
so naive sometimes.
Not everything can be fixed
with a motorcycle and a song.
Yeah. Sorry,
that was really unfair.
I'm frustrated too.
Yeah, I just
want to be out of here
and spend all of my time
in that castle alone
away from all these nosy people.
I do beg your pardon,
your highness.
There seems to be
an administrative...
discrepancy on your accounts.
Oh, our warmest congratulations,
your highness.
Mr. Goodman,
we had no idea his highness
was expecting
a new member to his family.
Hey.
- It's pretty good.
- Yeah.
Wait, babe, who was that?
Come, let's go back in.
-Come.
-Go, go, go.
I'm coming.
You want some pictures?
Huh? Huh?
Huh? Do I know you?
Huh? Do I know you?
And you say
she was with someone?
Yeah. With a local guy.
Has anyone else seen these?
I picked them up
from the developer
and came straight here.
Your highness.
Your highness.
Oh, hi.
I thought the work will be
much further along than this.
Just like any big project,
it's a little late.
Yeah, but on the expenses,
you're very much ahead, ma'am.
Certainly ahead of
the wire transfer
from your husband, the prince.
They've often been late.
This time we've been informed by
the secretary of the prince
that the transfer
is now suspended.
I'll call my husband.
I encourage you
to do so, your highness.
We now have an unpaid debt
and we will hate to have to put
an unfinished building up
for sale in order to collect.
Of course.
-Oh. Thank you.
-Thank you.
He's not picking up again
since that stupid photographer
took a picture of us.
Don't lose faith,
especially not right now.
Unless there's a miracle,
it's pretty much over.
They will take away our child.
No.
You know that adultery
is punishable by death.
Don't even say that.
Words have spells.
We were meant to be together.
I have no doubt in my mind,
as long as we're here,
within these walls,
we're protected.
Yes, that's right.
See that smile?
-I need your help.
-Lieutenant.
I cannot.
It's flagrant
conflict of interest.
The castle is under my name.
I'm the owner,
you're the lawyer.
If anything happens to me,
I want the castle to go to him.
But, Your Highness, why would
anything happen to you?
Your husband is traditional,
but he is not cruel.
Stop.
We both know what this means.
Please, Your Highness,
just talk to him.
Like a businessman,
not as a wife.
I'm sure you can
reach an arrangement.
I prefer not to be involved.
Can you just be
a human being for a second?
My husband is happily married
to his fourth wife.
I served all his functions
for his Moroccan businesses.
This man right here is gonna
be the father of my child,
and I wanna spend
the rest of my life with him.
I'd rather die than rot away
in some golden palace.
Please, Your Highness,
these matters
are outside
my area of expertise.
Okay.
What about I sign away
all my profits?
That's tens of millions
of dollars.
Draw the papers
and file them today.
-Please, Your Highness, I--
-Today.
Yes, Your Highness.
Give me a moment.
Nassim, in the future,
you might wanna use
your gift for profit,
because once this baby comes,
we're gonna be
on our own for money.
I didn't ask for this gift.
It'd be wrong for me
to use it for money.
Using your gift to provide for
your family is not profiting.
My husband's interest
is against ours,
and we're gonna have to do
whatever it takes to survive.
Come on, we have to go.
- What?
- Let's get out of here now.
- What?
- Come now. Let's go.
Okay, okay.
All right, all right, all right.
It's just.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Just take it easy.
It's okay, Noor.
Just take it easy.
Take it easy, take it easy.
- Nassim!
- It's okay, Noor.
Get your hands off of her!
It's okay, Noor. It's okay.
- Nassim!
- Get your hands off of her!
Nassim!
Noor! Noor!
Why did you do this?
Nassim!
You know what
they'll do to her.
How could you do this?
You know what they'll do to her.
You know what they'll do to her!
Nassim!
Why are you here?
Conscience.
I thought they taught
you lawyers not to have those.
I wouldn't imagine
you get many visitors.
You have the distinct
honor of being the first.
So you don't know anything.
What is there to know?
The good news is...
the birth went
without any complications.
You have a daughter.
She'd be about seven now.
What is her name?
Hanna.
And my Noor?
She's dead, isn't she?
The prince was most merciful.
She was not ex*cuted.
But they...
wouldn't let her see
her daughter.
And confined her
to a remote palace.
She became depressed,
and, well, lost hope, and...
When she committed--
When she passed...
the prince found out
that she had...
signed over the castle to you.
He could've destroyed
the document that day,
and he did not.
He said the castle was just
a symbol of humiliation for him,
and he doesn't want it.
He said we all lost something.
I took the liberty of completing
the paperwork for your release
that someone should be here soon
to accompany you out.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
I hope you'll be able
to move on...
and restart your life...
in peace.
Me too.
You were supposed
to protect her!
You're amazing.
Why have you forsaken me?
Answer me!
Growing up in the palace
as the illegitimate daughter
of the prince,
that was pretty lonely.
Everybody in his inner circle
knew who I was,
but they never talked about it.
For the sake of his reputation,
I received some of the benefits
of his children,
but... never got any love.
Then one day,
everything changed.
My nanny told me the truth
about my real father.
I decided I had to escape.
I was almost never allowed
out of the palace,
so I had to rely on
the servants to help me.
If they got caught, they could
have had their hands cut off.
Thankfully, there was
an extensive underground network
devoted to ripping off
the royal family,
and I took advantage of it.
Then one day,
I felt I had enough to escape.
Okay.
You can come back with me.
Just breathe.
Yeah.
- But how is that even possible?
- Hmm.
I was with him.
- I felt him.
- Oh...
Did he say anything more?
I don't talk with the deceased.
I try to understand the messages
they want to convey.
It's not always precise,
but, um...
the ones who have passed on
understand us more than
when they were alive.
How do you feel?
-Good.
-Good.
All right.
Shall we?
All right.
-Thank you.
-My pleasure.
- No...
- Using your gift
to provide for your family
is not profiting.
Please, accept my gratitude.
Thank you.
This man is... gifted.
Baba.
I wanna introduce you
to my friend.
We've already met.
We've been waiting
for you for a long time.
Good to see you again.
Yeah, don't worry about it.
Um...
Happens all the time.
Okay.
Here, have a seat.
Sure. Uh...
Here, yeah?
You don't
have to be so tense.
Hell of a day, isn't it?
Yeah, drink.
Oh, thanks.
You know, um...
...I've been seeing
this-- this boy.
These visions.
Who is he?
A ghost?
Let's call it a spirit,
for lack of a better term. Hmm?
This spirit appears to you
in the form of a little boy,
who is the son of the man
that built that castle.
The heir to the Prince Amnati.
The real question is,
who has the spirit inhabited
all of these centuries...
up until now, and why?
I just--
I need to know
why I'm here, why...
this is happening to me.
The spirit hasn't communicated
with me since you arrived.
But what was revealed to me...
was that it's been through
a very long journey.
I am
Commandante Alvarez Rodriguez.
Your leaders
have sued for peace,
and we are here to pacify
any reluctant hideouts
between Morocco and Spain.
Prince Amnati, the battle
is over and the w*r is lost.
I'll give you a choice
for preserving your legacy.
Choose your son and heir,
or your wife,
who can bear you more heirs.
Just take me.
Take my life, and spare them.
Have mercy.
Take care of our son, my love!
No!
Venga.
- Matarle.
- Wait.
Use my sword.
Only the greatest
of leaders understand that
not all battles must be fought
and won by themselves alone.
Through generations,
the wandering soul
that inhabited the body
of Amnati's heir would one day
get his revenge
on the Commandante
who helped the Spanish
vanquish Morocco.
The soul found no peace
in more bloodshed.
Many women, like
Noor and Hanna,
have made great sacrifices
to protect the soul
of the Amnati boy.
The seed that you have
always been meant to carry
and pass on to your future son
is not just
the story of a sword,
conquering warlords,
and a wandering soul.
We better go to your library.
Every generation
deserves an icon to look to
for inspiration and
hope for a better future,
and it seems that this person
is to be your son.
And now that you
and the soul of Amnati
are to join and become one,
your journey has
come to an end,
and this country's great legacy
may continue on.
The boy, he, uh--
he showed it to me
the last time I was here.
Well, when they do that,
it's usually for a good reason.
Only the absence of conflict
can offer solace,
because happiness is
the accidental byproduct
of the pursuit of peace.
Another word for
this is "love."
My lord...
that belongs to you.
The castle can be restored
to its rightful heir.
Amir?
Yes.
But you have
to take care of it...
until he's old enough.
Let's get this over with.
Yes.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have the beautiful
cask of Prince Amnati.
Starting bid is at 200,000.
Do I hear 200,000?
200,000. Do we have a 250?
250, 250. Do I hear three?
300, 300, 300,000. Very good.
Would you like 400, 400?
400,000 euros.
So we have 400. Do we have 450?
One million.
One million euros.
Thank you, sir.
Do we have any more?
Double.
Double.
Two million euros.
Two million.
Going once, going twice...
sold to the gentleman
in the back.
Congratulations.
f*ck that. For that much, I may
as well just build a new one.
Hey, if you, uh-- if you need
help with the findings for that,
-I'm your guy.
-Really?
No, f*ck off.
That's not a toy.
But Papa said it belongs to me.
Hmm?
Indeed it does.
Indeed it does.
Come.
Play. Play my song.
