Private is a 2004 film directed by Saverio Costanzo. A debut film by the director, the film is a minimalist psychological drama about a Palestinian family of seven suddenly confronted with a volatile situation in their home that in many ways reflects the larger ongoing conflict between Palestinians and Israel.
Initially selected as the official entry from Italy for the foreign language film category at the 78th Academy Awards, Private was disqualified as its main spoken language is not in Italian (a rule that was changed, effective with the next year's Oscars, partly due to this film). The film has received the Golden Leopard (best film) award at the 57th Locarno International Film Festival.
Mohammad, his wife and their five children live in a large, isolated house located halfway between a Palestinian village and an Israeli settlement. The house, in the crossfire of the two sides, is a strategic lookout point that the Israeli army decides to seize, confining the family to a few downstairs rooms in daytime and a single room at night. Mohammad refuses to leave this home and, reinforced by his principles against violence, decides to find a way to keep his family together in the house until the Israeli soldiers move on.

He's been the man in every war before
Fought so brave and nearly froze at Valley Forge
And in the big war he was the man
And now in Vietnam we owe a lot to the private
He has the courage of the knights of old
He's America's strenght standing straight and bold
With gun in hand he is a fightin' man
A courageous man yes we owe a lot to the private
He takes the gun and he points it straight
Straight at the heart of the things that free man hates
We owe a lot to the private
He's some lonely girl's only sweetheart
And he's some mother's only son
And he's some father's greatest pride and joy
Oh that great boy yes we owe a lot to the private
He takes the gun...
Take a look at your boyfriend, baby
Cause he ain't treating you right
Stop wasting all of your time now, baby
You should be living your life
He says he loves you more
Than money and alcohol
But that seems like a thing that your lover would say
That boy is hurting you
And he's making a fool of you
And deep down you know it too
I have a feeling you'll see it through
And take a look at yourself now, baby
He's been telling you lies
Don't throw away your life now, baby
Why don't you open your eyes
He says he loves you more
Than money and alcohol
But that seems like a thing that your lover would say
That boy is hurting you
And he's making a fool of you
And deep down you know it too
I have a feeling you'll see it through
That boy is hurting you
And he's making a fool of you
And deep down you know it too
I have a feeling you'll see it through
I think it's gotta be you and me
The kind of love that's meant to be
I think it's gotta be you and me
Nothing goes on too long
Nothing goes on too long
Nothing goes on too long
Nothing goes on too long
Well I told the truth when I fucked the lives
Drugged down the city and burnt house of lies
They suck it up suck it in sink the needle and let's begin
Symbols often reward than they're used to
You cannot wait another day
So let the needle hit the tray
In your private garden it's your private fear
In your private garden
Nothing goes on too long
Nothing goes on too long
I pick around for 40 days and nights
The cities blaze and wasted radiates the nights
They suck 'em up, they shoot 'em in they feel the needle that let's it in
More drugs that kill than they're used to
You cannot wait another day
So let the needle hit the tray
In your private garden it's your private fear
In your private garden someone's gotta pay that fear
In your private garden it's your private fear
And if it comes down to someone's gotta pay that fear
In your private garden it's your private fear

Can We Go Somewhere Private?
Can We Go Somewhere Private?
Can We Go Somewhere Private?
Ooooohhh Oh Oh
Can We Go Somewhere Private?
Never try to take my life away...
I've got my personal wit that I can lose if I want to,
I can make it complete or divide it by two.
My personal shit will occur if I do -
Not your business, just my problem that is private too.
I've got my personal name, personal shame,
Personal pain, personal blame,
Gimme back my private skin, private grin,
A wanna sin if I wish and I wanna sing.
One day I'll overcome all the shit,
I'll rule my personal demons and lay them down to my
feet.
One day I'll conquer every desire:
This is my privacy, so I'll destroy them till they
expire.
One day I'll finish all my decay,
One day (sounds unreal, like 32nd of May!),
One day I'll be happy, one day I'll be free,
And that day will be mine, my privacy.
I'm not going to wait for you,
though it looks like doing something that I shouldn't
There are plenty of things that'll never be done:
If the Moon remains forever, there'll be no place for
the Sun.
Stay where you are,
Your death comes from afar.
Your own extinction
Is your shadow and bride,
It's your day and your night.
I've got my personal shape and my personal form,
I've got my private temperature, well I'm just warm,
I've got my private heart and my private veins,
My private blood brings oxygen to my private brains.
My ways may be wicked, and cruel they seem,
I walk my crooked mile to where I've never been.
My roads are few, but everyone is mine,
They run away the faster the more I run out of time.
One day I'll overwhelm all the shit,
I'll fight my personal demons and throw them down to my
feet.
One day I'll control body and mind:
Them both will serve me mixed and intertwined.
One day I'll end up all my decay,
One day (looks odd, like 69th of May!),
One day I'll be happy and I'll sing a song
That day will be mine, cuz I'll be gone.
I'm not going to wait for you,
though it sounds like doing something that I mustn't
There are so many things that'll never be done:
If the Moon remains forever, there'll be no time for
the Sun.
Stay where you can
Till all your roads are gone.
The last one will take you
From your miserable stand
To your personal end.
I've got my personal privacy.
(haven't you got one? haven't you got it, haven't you
got it too?)
I've got my private personality.
(never had it yet? You must have had it, you must have
had it too.)
I've got my personal privacy.
(haven't you got one? haven't you got it, haven't you
got it too?)
I've got my private personality.
(never had it yet? You must have had it, you must have
had it too.)
I don't walk someone's way,
I don't want someone's fate,
I don't need someone's life,
And I won't let someone take mine.
I'm not going to wait for you,
though it seems to be something that I mustn't do.
There are so many things that'll never be done:
If I'll remain forever, I'll have no time to be gone.
Stay where you are,
(don't you try to walk my way!)
Your death comes from afar.
(I don't need someone's life,
And I won't let someone take mine away from me).
Your own extinction
Is your shadow and bride,
It's your day and your night.
Stay where you can
(walk your crooked mile to where you've never been)
Till all your roads are gone.
(I run away the faster the more you run out of time)
The last one will take you
From your miserable stand
To your personal end.
I'm your fate
So never try to take my life away...
I'm your fate
Girl every time you get me undressed
You move away and make me confess my
Love for you
You got my heart so why should i hide it
You say you want it to so why fight it
Like you do
Uh, you twist it and turn it
Uh, you twist it and burn it
Uh, you slash it and burn it
And then you crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
I know i could be waiting forever
Your love will keep me hanging and never let me know
You put a nail right into my heart
And i'm gonna have to make a new start and let you go
Uh, you twist it and turn it
Uh, you twist it and burn it
Uh, you slash it and burn it
And then you crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
You crucify my heart
You got it burning
Once upon a time
Someone introduced me to
The kind of girl i wish i never knew
And now our time is overdue
We got some breaking up to do
Do you really want me?
Or am i just another lover?
It's not the time for me and you
Do you really want me?
And can you do without my loving?
We got some breaking up to do
Or am i just another lover?
It's not the time for me and you
We got some breaking up to do
And then a couple of days ago
Someone told me stories that
You had been wasting all my precious time
And now i'll have to leave it all behind
We got some breaking up to do
Do you really want me?
Or am i just another lover?
It's not the time for me and you
Do you really want me?
And can you do without my loving?
We got some breaking up to do
Or am i just another lover?
We got some breaking up to do
(Carly Simon)
Can you be private when the juice is sweet
And the secret is crimson
Can you be quiet when my hands are heat
And the riptide rises?
Can you be blind and a beggar on your knees?
And live on our desire alone
Can you ride the tide in this insanity
And still keep as still as the shadows?
When the cry is so wide on the inside
When the truth jumps quick to the heart
When the wind or the stars are violent
Can you be silent?
Here’s a little something that the wizard said:
“You can kiss, but never tell
All the wisdom you need
And you’ll be needing some
Can be heard in the mouth of a seashell?
Chorus
Just the wide grey sky
And the hunchback moon
Will keep our memories
Not a living soul will remember us
This is just for you and me
‘Cause if you;re out with the boys one night
If you;re out with the boys and there’s braggin?
If you break, speak and call me your lover,
