00:00Yes! Only one!

02:00You wanted to see me, sir?
02:16I did.
02:16I wanted to let you know about my decision.
02:26I didn't mean to, but I desired to do it out of respect for you.
02:32I really appreciate it.
02:35Following the sacred wedding, I will take Nadi as my wife.
02:39I'm not doing it at the moment because that could be seen as a great insult to Nana.
02:45Oh, if I were the one to lie with the king, I'd wear something of this color.
02:56Take a look.
02:58It stands out, huh?
02:59Don't you think?
03:00What's the use of wearing such a beautiful color if you're not able to please the king?
03:05As for me, I would do it perfectly.
03:08Even better than you, Nadi.
03:12Nadi.
03:14Shatissa said that she would do better than you.
03:17Aren't you saying anything?
03:18If that's what she says.
03:20Do you really think that you're ready to represent Inanna and Lai with the king?
03:28Wasn't I chosen by Nana?
03:30Are you questioning your god, Shatissa?
03:32Let's go, let's go.
03:43Take those ducks to the kitchen.
03:45Please.
03:46We have all this wood.
03:48Put that wood here.
03:49And we need more wood for the statues.
03:51Do not forget that.
03:53Those goats will stay out there in the yard.
03:55And we need more goats, please.
03:57Um, Ebate, please, do not forget to check all the animals.
04:03Of course, indeed.
04:07Uh, Kasari, they're already bringing the wood for the statues.
04:11Wonderful.
04:12I can see that everything is going well for Akitu's festivities.
04:16As usual, Kasari, as usual.
04:18No, no, no, Abate.
04:20After everything the gods have done for us recently,
04:23this time Akitu has to be special.
04:26The best.
04:27Do not worry.
04:29Not a thing will be missed.
04:30And the king is ready to play his part during all the event.
04:34It will be twelve perfect days.
04:36Yes, it has to be.
04:37It has to be.
04:38Let's impress the gods and the whole population of Ur.
04:43And Morabi.
04:45Where is he?
04:49This time there's no escaping it.
04:52The enemy has sneaked into Tora's own convoy.
04:55I wonder if the soldier that you hired has completed the service.
05:01I have told him to do things very quietly so as not to raise suspicion.
05:05It was very wise of you just having hired that soldier to help us get rid of Tora.
05:10Oh, that wasn't difficult.
05:13Many people around here hate that outsider now.
05:18He will be attacked when he least expects it.
05:22Now I have to go.
05:23They're waiting for me at the temple.
05:25As soon as you have any news, please keep me informed.
05:30Yes, certain things are really urgent.
05:52Where is Garik?
05:57He's gone to spend a penny.
05:59He's gone to spend a penny.
06:22He's gone to spend a penny.
06:23He's gone to spend a penny.
06:27He's gone to spend a penny.
06:28MUSIC PLAYS
06:58Thank you, Yaffa.
07:06Are you comfortable, my lady?
07:07Yes, it's just my belly doesn't stop growing.
07:09It's a big baby.
07:11I hope Abraham won't be born before Tera returns.
07:19Careful, my lady, here!
07:25Careful!
07:26Keep calm.
07:28Keep calm.
07:46Sir.
07:48You scared me to death, Greek.
07:50It's not my intention.
07:52I just wanted to apologize for my behavior.
07:55I owe allegiance to General Ikor.
08:00I'm here to protect the property of the king and of the temple.
08:04And not to sow discord.
08:06Acknowledging your mistakes is a big thing.
08:10You are different from the others.
08:13Different, you say?
08:14You are fair.
08:15You defy the food equally for everyone.
08:17Despite Kesey's complaints.
08:20I hope you will forgive my behavior.
08:26Apology accepted, Greek.
08:28Next time, just choose a more appropriate moment.
08:31You shouldn't interrupt the moment of a man's peace.
08:34Where are you going?
08:46I'll see who did this.
08:47It's too dangerous, my lady.
08:49It's not fair what they did, Iafa.
08:51Look at how the house is.
08:52Whoever did this is capable of doing much worse.
08:55I think you'd better not leave the house today.
08:57Am I to be a prisoner inside my own home?
09:05Am I to be a prisoner inside my own home?
09:27My king.
09:39Huh?
09:41Congratulations on your attitude.
09:44What are you talking about?
09:45To take the priestess Nadi for your wife only after the sacred marriage,
09:50your respect for the gods only shows how great you are.
09:53Why are you so calm right now?
09:55Not so long ago, I was informed that you and my second wife, Kala,
10:01had lost your tempers and had had a fight inside my harem.
10:05And now you react like this?
10:08Have you already taken out all your anger on Kala?
10:12I know.
10:13When I should give up a fight,
10:15I recognize when my efforts are in vain.
10:19I will not fight in a lost war.
10:22I understand.
10:23And I completely agree.
10:25It's the best attitude you could have.
10:27I must only remind you that the high priest still has to approve the king's union with his niece.
10:33I see no reason for him not to approve.
10:36It will be a great honor, Fennati.
10:39To become my wife.
10:41Yes, yes.
10:42It's also a great honor to be a priestess of Ur and to serve directly to the god Nana.
10:54Excuse me now.
10:55How come nobody knows anything?
11:06You went there to watch Amat.
11:09You should bring me all of the information, Kamecha.
11:11I know, madam.
11:12And I asked the whole neighborhood.
11:14But nobody wanted to talk about the stoning.
11:15And then who did said...
11:17Said they didn't know anything about it.
11:19Did Amat get hurt?
11:22You know no one can disturb Amat's tranquility in the city.
11:25No one.
11:27Tomorrow I will pay my respects to her.
11:30I need to find out who is fueling all of this hatred.
11:33Tell me the truth.
11:36Hmm?
11:37You never dreamed that one day we would move inside these walls.
11:43Yes.
11:44I thought this to be an almost impossible task.
11:49And that is why your achievement makes me even more intrigued.
11:53Tell me, Nidana.
11:54What did you have to do to get this house?
11:56I've told you.
11:57It was just the way the priests found to thank me for denouncing Amat.
12:03Why are you looking at me like this?
12:11Ah, how suspicious you are.
12:13Oh, my.
12:14I just think all of this is too good to be true.
12:17It's good indeed.
12:18Let's be thankful.
12:19That's it.
12:20And this is what you should be.
12:22Be thankful to me.
12:23Ah, be thankful.
12:24Be thankful.
12:25Be thankful.
12:25Nidana, what husband does what I do for you?
12:28The person who should be holding this child is the mother, not the father.
12:32And who should have arranged a house inside the city walls should be the father, not the mother.
12:36I only do this because I've never seen such a careless mother.
12:40There.
12:41You see it?
12:42You're making Redwana nervous with this conversation that doesn't make any sense.
12:46We need to let your family know.
12:48We left in the middle of the night like two runaway thieves.
12:51Oh, Hashabia.
12:53You care about such things.
12:55My family can only criticize me.
12:59Let them stay there.
13:00You were not like that, Nidana.
13:02You've changed.
13:04I did change.
13:06For the better.
13:10Where might Nidana and Hashabia have gone?
13:14I've asked everyone.
13:16No one's heard from them since last night.
13:20Nidana has never done that.
13:23What could have happened?
13:25Who is it?
13:28It's me.
13:29I'm a Sai.
13:30Come on in.
13:34Excuse me.
13:37What is it?
13:42You have a strange look on your face.
13:45Say, did anything happen to my daughter and son-in-law?
13:47Where did they take my granddaughter?
13:49No, nothing happened to them.
13:50They're fine.
13:51All three of them.
13:52And why the weird look, then?
13:55It seems that Nidana and Hashabia have moved to the city.
13:58What, now?
13:59That's what I heard.
14:03But how did they get resources for that?
14:07They moved and they didn't even tell us?
14:09If father wasn't out with the herd, I doubt that Nidana would have had the courage to do such a thing.
14:16There is something very strange about this story.
14:19It's not a matter of the world.
14:28You know, the world is still here.
14:30You know what's being said.
14:32You know what?
14:32There you go.
14:34There you go.
14:36Give it up.
14:36Give it up.
14:37Come on.
14:37Give it up.
14:38Go on.
14:39There you go.
14:39REY
14:39Let's go.
15:09Bugali?
15:14What are you doing? What's the spirit for it?
15:18I saw something moving.
15:20Inside Tara's tent?
15:31It's a snake! Get out, Tara!
15:34It's a snake!
15:39Are you okay?
15:40I'm all right. There was no time for it to bite me.
15:42I saw it coming in, so I ran here.
15:44Thank you, Bugali.
15:46Narrowly, you'd find me dead wrapped in the blanket the High Priest gave me.
15:50The snake! A snake! I don't want to die!
15:53A snake! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!
15:55Apparently our scribe hates snakes, doesn't he?
15:57I will go there to calm Keezy down.
15:59Bugali, put a little more wood on the fire to scare the animals.
16:02I will go there to scare the animals.
16:05I will go there to scare the animals.
16:09I will go there!
16:10I am very happy!
16:11I will go there!
16:12I did that.
16:13You made me!
16:14I did that.
16:15You made me!
16:16I am very happy.
16:17I had my friends.
16:18You made me!
16:19You made me!
16:20I am very happy!
16:21You made me!
16:22Ahhhhhhh!
16:46Nati...
16:52I am sorry to come with no previous notice, but I heard that your house was stoned and I got very worried, Amont.
17:02Are you and the baby okay?
17:03Thank God nothing bad happened, except for the furniture and broken objects.
17:09Come on in.
17:14Well, apparently it was quite a big scare.
17:18It was indeed. Since yesterday I haven't left the house.
17:22Today Aaffa went shopping alone and didn't let me go along.
17:26She said I need to be careful.
17:28But I won't be able to live like this for much longer.
17:30Of course not. No one can withstand to live cloistered like this.
17:34You, like everyone else here, have the right to move safely wherever you want, Amont.
17:38I believe not everyone thinks like that.
17:41We will prove to them that they are wrong.
17:44I will speak to my uncle.
17:46Maybe he can provide a soldier with the king to watch over your house.
17:49I would love to see anyone trying it again.
17:53No, no, no. It's not necessary.
17:55With a soldier at my door, then I will definitely feel like a real prisoner.
17:59But thank you very much for your concern.
18:01Are you sure there is nothing I can do for you?
18:04Um, on second thought, there is something I would like and maybe you could help me out.
18:15What is that?
18:25An authorization. To get in and out of the city anytime we want.
18:28I'm sorry?
18:30It says it is with the greetings of the priestess Nadi at the request of Amat, Tara's wife.
18:35And I know what we're going to do with this authorization.
18:39To visit Amat and thank her for her kindness.
18:41For that, too. But right after, I'll find that traitor called Nadana.
18:54Ah, where have you been, Nadi?
18:57You are late. You should pay more attention to your commitments.
19:00Calm down.
19:01Calm down? How can I? The Kortesh is leaving soon. Did you know that?
19:04But still it didn't, and I'm here now, so settle down.
19:06I would like to speak to Nadi alone. Will you excuse me?
19:16Sure.
19:17Sure.
19:17Sure.
19:26And then, are you ready for the holy wedding?
19:30I am so nervous, my queen. And worried as well.
19:58But why? Everything is going on just perfectly.
20:02But how come? There are only a few days left for the ceremony, and I still don't know what your plan is.
20:08I am taking care of it. Yes?
20:12I'm sorry, great queen. But how am I supposed to sleep with the king and stop him from marrying me at the same time?
20:19At the right time, you will understand everything, Nadi.
20:22Here. Trust the queen.
20:29It seems I have no choice.
20:31Don't you worry about anything. Just leave everything to me.
20:38Excuse me.
20:39Don't you touch me.
21:03How many times will I have to repeat that I hate people touching me?
21:18You nervous?
21:21It's none of your business.
21:23Let me try to guess then.
21:25I know.
21:29It's because today is the big day.
21:32The king will show how submissive he is to Nana.
21:36Prepared?
21:37Stop being cynical.
21:40You know that this day disturbs me.
21:42You should have gotten used to it, my husband.
21:47It's Nana who rules the whole city.
21:50We just serve him.
22:02What are you looking at?
22:04Come on, you slugs.
22:07Finish dressing me.
22:17Excuse me, high priest.
22:20Enkiru.
22:22Morabi.
22:23Please feel free.
22:26Is everything ready?
22:28Yes, Kisari.
22:29It will be a beautiful ceremony.
22:32We are all very excited.
22:34Knowing that the gods will be satisfied
22:36with all the demonstrations of loyalty,
22:40obedience, and submission of the king
22:42gives us the assurance of a peaceful future.
22:44And each one of us has a key role in this great story.
22:52No doubt.
22:53I keep wondering,
22:55what does the high priest feel
22:58when he slaps the king himself?
23:03What are you insinuating, Morabi?
23:05I feel nothing except my accomplishments.
23:09And I fulfill my obligations.
23:10And I do it on behalf of Nana.
23:12Let's stop.
23:37This is a good place to get some water
23:41and to get rid of the sand on the body.
23:43No.
23:45No.
24:03Tara, we have a problem.
24:06What happened?
24:07The number of sheep doesn't match the last count.
24:10Two sheep are missing.
24:11You're sure?
24:12The numbers don't lie.
24:14They probably have gone astray.
24:17I don't want to lose any animals.
24:19And I bet the high priest doesn't want to lose any animals either.
24:23Lamasi, gather some men and go north.
24:26I will follow that trail we've passed early on today.
24:30The rest of you stay and set up the camp.
24:32Don't you worry, Tara. We will find the animals.
24:35I do expect you to find them.
24:37The temple has invested a lot of resources in this trip,
24:39and now we've lost two sheep that we had just acquired.
24:42Relax. We haven't lost any animals.
24:44They're not too far. I'm sure of that.
24:48You too.
24:48I don't know.
24:56I don't know.
25:27Come, Mother, come.
25:52Oh, look at the king and the queen.
26:01She's beautiful.
26:03I've never seen a cortege as close as this one.
26:08It is so beautiful.
26:09But we have to go to Amad's house.
26:15And then go after that traitor called Nidana.
26:17My lady?
26:25My lady, it is not safe to stay at the window.
26:29So explain to me why these bunch of people are on the street drinking and celebrating.
26:32They are waiting for the king's cortege.
26:34I've seen a cortege with Tara before and it was much calmer.
26:38There was not all that mess.
26:39But this is the cortege for the king's humiliation ritual.
26:43Humiliation ritual?
26:45What is it?
26:46It's part of New Year's Eve feast.
26:48Ikiitu.
26:49Today is the day when the king becomes an ordinary person.
26:54Explain the story better, Yaffa.
26:56This ritual marks Ibi Sin's submission to God Nana.
27:07First off, the king goes on the cortege to the ziggurat.
27:22And there he is stripped away of all his wealth.
27:26Then he goes to the sanctuary.
27:54And what happens in the sanctuary?
28:00The king is slapped in the face by the high priest.
28:03I'm your most humbled servant, Nana.
28:23I am your first servant.
28:25I am my first servant, from the marginalized to the Lord Skywalker.
28:27I am your first servant.
28:27I am your first servant, such as a good father.
28:29I am your first servant,幕현, who listened to me.
28:30I am from your once in theì°¸.
28:31I am the first servant at Ibi Sin's session.
28:31I am your first servant, basil from the lord fairla PLOGRAPH
28:34andвинite me, thank you, ziggúde were my first servant.
28:35Then this part came to the world by his wife.
28:36I am your first servant, I am the different kind way.
28:37Why?
28:38By that car, I am your largest servant as well.
28:42I can replying the world for these two sons of serveakes.
29:13What's that for?
29:15He has to show that he is completely submissive to Nana.
29:19And he'll be beaten until he sheds his first tear.
29:43And he'll be beaten until he's left.
30:13But this part of the beating happens every year.
30:37It is part of the calendar of Akitu's feast.
30:42There are many celebrations that end in the sacred wedding.
30:45Sacred wedding?
30:47But isn't the king already married?
30:49Yes.
30:50And he has a harem with many wives.
30:53But in this ceremony, the king is not the king.
30:57He is Dumuzid.
30:59And the priestess is the goddess Inanna.
31:03I confess that it's getting even more difficult to understand.
31:06What matters, my lady, is that the king has to prove his virility.
31:11If he fails, the land is not fertilized.
31:14And a bad soil means a horrible harvest.
31:18As a result, each one of us may go hungry.
31:22Just because the king is not virile.
31:24And there's more.
31:25A king who's not virile can lose the throne.
31:31I'm sorry, Afa, but I can't understand how you can believe that the king's virility determines the harvest of Ur.
31:40Amat?
31:41Amat, are you home?
31:42I knew you were on this trail, you runaways.
32:05What a scare you gave me, huh?
32:12I knew you were on this trail.
32:42I knew you were on this trail.
32:43I knew you were on this trail.
32:44I knew you were on this trail.
32:49How did you got a fire?
32:51No.
33:00inker...
33:03...
33:07C...
33:10C...
33:11You all right?
33:15I'm all right. I'm glad you found me. Thank you.
33:19In the rush, I forgot to pick up my sling and spear.
33:22I saw some footprints on the other trail and ended up here.
33:27And you?
33:28I killed the wolf.
33:29Well, when I arrived, you were standing there watching.
33:31Just waiting for the right moment.
33:32You should have stayed in the camp, taking care of the herd.
33:35How did you get here?
33:36I saw the footprints and heard the howls.
33:38Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
33:39The important thing is that we all escaped alive.
33:41And we found the two runaways. Let's go back.
33:43Lugali, bring the wolf there.
34:08I am so impressed with Tara's instinct.
34:11How did you know the sheep had got lost in the middle of the trail?
34:16Intuition and experience.
34:18But they could not be there.
34:20And still, you're humble.
34:22Ah, thanks to the gods, huh?
34:24Ah.
34:25It was Tara who found the sheep.
34:27Well, that's good, huh?
34:29We can't afford to lose animals along the way.
34:31Look, I'm going to write this down, okay?
34:33I will write this down.
34:37I didn't like what happened on the trail.
34:41What are you talking about?
34:44Lugali.
34:46When I arrived, he was standing there just looking.
34:51Maybe he was just scared.
34:53I don't know, Tara.
34:54I don't trust him anymore.
35:07For God's sake, tell me.
35:09Tell me what happened.
35:11A hearty welcome demonstration in her.
35:14I'm still fixing up things.
35:16I'll just wait for Mr. Tara to arrive,
35:19and I'll start working on the outside as well.
35:21But, Ahmaat, tell me, how was it?
35:24We were attacked.
35:25They threw stones and caused all this damage.
35:29But who could have done such a thing?
35:32I know a person who would be able to.
35:36Ahmaat don't mind about Danina.
35:39She doesn't know what she's talking about.
35:41It's because my sister has moved to the city with her husband.
35:44She didn't even say goodbye to us.
35:47For sure.
35:48She's not up to good deeds.
35:50Do you think that Nadana would also be able to do this?
35:54That is what I also want to know.
35:56I found out where Nadana is.
35:57I'm getting to the bottom of it.
35:59Right today.
36:08Your husband?
36:09He's out.
36:16This is the payment for the great surprise that you organized for Ahmaat.
36:25You might already know that I am available for whatever it takes.
36:30Yes.
36:31Who knows if you won't need servant services in the temple.
36:35I would love to work there.
36:37Who knows?
36:38Uh, my husband is also in need of work.
36:44Take it easy, Nadana.
36:46I just got you a house.
36:49But I'm not going to be a tutor for you in the town.
36:52Knowing how hardworking I am,
36:55you could help me out.
36:59No?
36:59Let me make one thing clear.
37:04The one who gives the orders here is me.
37:08And the order now is...
37:11Shut up your big mouth.
37:14Enjoy the wheat.
37:15And make a very tasty bread for your husband.
37:18Tight-fisted.
37:28Next time, bring Sharer, too.
37:30I promise that I'll make a very tasty meal for us and we'll spend a whole afternoon together.
37:35Do you agree?
37:36When Father gets to know the part of this delicious meal, he'll come right away.
37:40All right, Amat.
37:42He just hasn't come yet because he traveled with the herds in search of better pastors.
37:45But as soon as he comes back, we already have an appointment.
37:50And thank you for the granted access you got from the priestess.
37:55Now we can always see each other.
37:56I'm counting on that.
37:59Thank you for your visit.
38:07My lady, forgive me, but I heard a little of the conversation.
38:11Was it Danina's sister who organized the attack?
38:14Well, I am back.
38:27Tarah.
38:28You are a man of your word.
38:31As I can see.
38:33You're doing good business, eh?
38:36Not as good as what I'm about to do with you.
38:40Your animals look good.
38:42But ours, Tarah.
38:44Our animals.
38:45You won't find any better in all of Mesopotamia.
38:49If they're all what you're saying, I will pay you an amount you've never imagined.
38:53Don't exaggerate, Tarah.
38:55Let's go and see if they're so wonderful.
38:56Come on, Lamasi.
38:57Kisi.
39:00You'll see.
39:01You'll like it.
39:08What is it?
39:09Did you miss anything?
39:11I saw when you went after Tarah without authorization.
39:14Were you following him?
39:16Why don't you mind your own business?
39:19I don't owe you explanations.
39:22You should be thankful to me.
39:23Just because of my intuition.
39:25I saved her off from the wolves.
39:27I saved her off from the wolves.
39:30Now leave me alone.
39:31I don't know.
39:32I didn't know.
39:33I didn't know.
39:33I did know.
39:33I didn't know.
39:34I didn't know.
39:34I didn't know.
39:35I didn't know.
39:35Oh, my God.
40:05Oh, my God.
40:35Surprised by our visit?
40:41How are you, little sister?
40:50Daughter?
40:51Aren't you going to invite us in?
40:53I was just leaving.
41:08And this Ereshkigal statuette?
41:11Where did it come from?
