:11:01
He died, yes.
:11:02
Not the way Curiel did.
:11:04
Not a violent death.
:11:06
So, same itinerary, meaning what?
:11:07
Egyptian, middle-class background.
:11:10
Happy childhood. Jesuit education.
:11:13
Then, exposure to Egypt's poverty...
:11:16
and the same revolt
against rabbis, king, parents....
:11:19
Is that when he came to France?
:11:22
He was partisan.
:11:24
He got arrested.
:11:26
He spent a year and a half in prison.
:11:28
And your mother?
:11:29
She was more a Zionist.
:11:31
I'm going to go see what's happening
with Air Bosnia.
:11:34
She took the last Cairo-Jerusalem train.
:11:39
She arrived in Jerusalem in 1948 by train?
:11:43
And those on the Exodus, by boat?
:11:45
There's exodus and Exodus.
:11:48
So you went to school in Israel?
:11:52
No, we left Israel very early on.
:11:54
My father loved France.
:11:58
I went to school in France.
:12:01
And your military service?
:12:03
I did it in Israel.
:12:05
-You went back?
-Yes.
:12:07
-With your mother?
-No, alone.
:12:10
And after your military service?
:12:12
Strangely, during my service
I realized how French I had become.
:12:17
So I went back to France.
:12:19
You found work?
:12:21
Interpreter.
:12:22
French, Hebrew, Russian,
Spanish, Portuguese.
:12:25
What brings you here?
:12:27
I'm working for the Literary Encounters.
:12:31
But also checking up on my niece.
:12:35
Her mother, my sister,
asked me to check on her.
:12:39
I think they're here.
