Get out.
Walk to the stone in the middle of the square.
Do it slowly.
You stay here and be good!
Hey, yeah
Do you understand where you are?
Yes, right now you're between truth and lies
Oh, the time is ripe
l don't need words of grief
Oh, at this rate we'll end up losing the means to change anything
Deep inside of my small heart, into the light
lt began to move
Nothing can be sweeter than your smile
What l sealed away was the sound of dying for enlightenment
Sometimes l think that is me choosing the way
Body trembling
You must not say l don't care, tell me why
What l'm letting fly is the sound of dying for enlightenment
Too bad you didn't get to negotiate with the sheik.
lsn't this pretty harsh treatment to inflict on someone just because he's Japanese?
Don't think of this as the same sun you have in Japan.
When you've bathed in this sunlight,
you won't even be able to talk back anymore.
You won't just writhe in agony from the thirst.
When the rock's been baked by the sun, it will scorch your flesh.
That's still pretty lukewarm as a torture method.
What?
lf our roles were reversed, l'd strip off your clothes.
What are you plotting this time?
Are you afraid of me?
There you go.
l've granted your wish for you.
lf there's anything else you want to say, do it now.
You'll be getting so parched you won't even be able to scream.
When that happens, l'll just drink my own blood to quench the thirst.
You're an obstinate guy.
Don't make a mistake. That's not clothing.
You're right...
lt's certainly not clothing.
Everyone's started betting already.
How long are they saying he'll last?
They say he'll probably hit the critical point at about noon.
l wonder if he'll really make it that long?
Do you want water?
Here.
Welcome to Sukkur, Lieutenant Colonel Shadle.
We've been waiting for you.
Why are there only police helicopters?
Sir?
l'm asking you why no Cobras have been deployed!
The officer previously in command said they weren't necessary.
Prepare some Cobras, and be quick about it.
Yes, Sir!
l didn't come here for a vacation, you got that?
l came here to wage war. War!
Damn, is that bastard still alive?
Yusuf Ali is probably watching me from somewhere in that building.
The first thing to do is lure him out.
Allahu akbar, allahu akbar.
La ilaha illa Allah.
Physical pain and the fear of death
are both no more than problems of consciousness.
Without exception,
these people are being persecuted by the authorities of the time.
ln short!
When the solitary feeling of being driven into a corner
and the fervor of ''God is with me'' come together...
You don't even feel pain.
lt's a fusion of God and self, isn't it?
ln the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
An absolute fusion!
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
the Beneficent, the Merciful.
Master of the Day of Judgment,
Thee alone we worship; Thee alone we ask for help.
That guy's stopped moving.
Maybe he's kicked the bucket.
Whatever.
l bet on him dying before noon, so my money's gone already.
No hard feelings, now. Come on, let's go have a look at him.
Geez, he's still alive.
He's one tough bastard.
...nor of those who go astray.
Who is this guy?! He's reciting the Quran!
What?!
That's impossible!
Hey!
Thee alone we worship; Thee alone we ask for help.
Show us the straight path.
Hey, he's not reciting the Quran!
l know l heard it.
l heard this man reciting the Quran!
His throat's dried up with thirst; there's no way he can even talk!
But look.
His flesh is being scorched, but he's not suffering at all.
What does this mean?
This man is being protected by God!
That's crazy!
As if there'd ever be an Oriental hero!
Then how do you explain this?
Let's settle things with these.
We'll set these weaver ant soldiers loose
and let them crawl on his face.
When the ants get in your ears,
they keep going further and further inside.
ln the end, they start eating your brain.
lf he's really under divine protection,
the ants won't go near his ears.
lf he's not, he'll be a writhing madman by the time he dies.
Well? Shall we put him to the test?
Do it!
We'll place our bets again!
l'm in!
All right, here we go!
Let's do it!
Okay!
Three hundred says he dies a madman.
A hundred rupees on this man's good luck!
l put three hundred on divine protection!
l've got a hundred on dying a madman!
This is the will of God too, l suppose.
Hurry up and go in!
Just a little more...
The weaver ants are going to eat up his brain.
This guy's saying something!
Heh, it's just delirious rambling.
Wa...
Water...
He's repeating the word ''water''!
So what?
l'll give you a drink, if you're so thirsty.
But not until after your brain has been eaten by the ants.
Go!
That's right, keep going right on in!
Listen up, Yusuf Ali!
You're a coward!
What's more, you're an underhanded coward!
l came to negotiate with you, and you won't even meet with me!
lt's because you're afraid of me, because l am a hero!
lsn't that right?!
Yusuf Ali, you're a coward!
What a fool.
He could've just begged for his life, but instead...
Now that he's sullied the sheik's honor, it's over.
Don't come near me!
You hurry up and run away too!
Never mind me, just run!
Run!
Don't!
So you can still call someone who hits women a ''hero?''
God won't forgive you.
l have no intention of listening to your sermons.
Die!
You're not a hero.
You're just an ordinary coward.
lt's my thanks to you for calling me a coward!
l've made you angry, have l?
But you know, there's a man who was unjustly branded a coward by you
who's been suffering for many years because of it.
Where did you get that?
Do you want to know?
Answer me!
First l'll have some chai.
With plenty of sugar.
There wasn't any word today either.
l wonder if something happened to Mr. Yugo?
He's fine.
Two or three days of no contact happens all the time with him.
You've been spending all your nights here. You're probably tired.
Why don't you go home for the night?
No, l'll stay here.
l see.
Well, the food you delivered...
Thank you very much, l'll help myself.
Huh? Okay...
Now, talk.
Why do you have that pendant?
A certain old man passed it on to me.
The only sheik who completed his pilgrimage to Mecca,
Haji Rahmani.
Haji?
Haji Rahmani is alive?!
Yes, alive and well.
l was sure he was dead already.
Still such shamelessness.
Haji was a great sheik, both as a leader and as a hero.
That's what makes it such a shame.
lf he hadn't begged for his life when he lost to Ali,
he could have protected his honor.
On his honor as a hajji, he did not beg for his life.
What did you say?
There's no need to listen to any more of this.
Shoot him!
l remember all of your faces.
You said, ''As if there'd ever be an Oriental hero.''
You bet three hundred rupees that l had divine protection.
You were standing at my feet.
None of you must doubt what each of you saw then.
Accept the truth.
l am being protected by God.
You saw that, didn't you?
What are you waiting for? Shoot him!
A choice between God or a sheik isn't even a choice.
Can you defy God?
Shut up, you Japanese!
Sheik, please let go of him.
Are you siding with the enemy?!
lf you kill that man, God will punish our village!
Don't just believe what he tells you! He's talking nonsense.
This may be something we should investigate.
There's no need for that.
There's no way this man is a hero!
Don't interfere!
You're not the one who decides whether or not l'm a hero.
God is!
lt's as this man says.
There's nothing to do but ask God.
Fine.
Stab this knife into your arm.
lf you've been chosen by God,
God won't let you feel the pain.
l have no objection, but l do have conditions.
What?
Speak them.
l want to prove l'm a hero in front of all the soldiers in the village.
And one more thing...
When l've proven that l'm a hero,
Yusuf Ali, you who did not acknowledge me as a hero,
l'll have you bring the question of your true intent before God as well.
ln the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
the Beneficent, the Merciful.
Master of the Day of Judgment,
Thee alone we worship; Thee alone we ask for help.
Show us the straight path,
the path of those whom Thou hast favoured;
not the path of those who earn Thine anger
nor of those who go astray.
Look...
He's not feeling the pain at all.
He's under divine protection.
Stop, already.
That's enough. Let go of the knife.
Was contesting this man's claims the will of God as well?
Sheik, now it's your turn to ask God for judgment.
Wait!
There's no need for you to injure yourself.
Don't trouble God any further.
How should we interpret that?
Yusuf Ali Mesa stands out as a hero among heroes.
Ali! Ali! Ali! Ali!
Ali! Ali! Ali!
Ali! Ali!
Tonight is the end of the allotted time, the full moon!
l acknowledge you as a hero.
Let's begin the negotiations.
Please call me Yugo.
