[Prayer in Hebrew]
The death of Moshe ben Asher.
marks the end of a century-old history of Jews in Mauritius.
[camera clicks] He was the last jew on this island.
Being a popular writer,
he wrote many books on the history of jews in Mauritius'
To escape genocide during the Second World War
Many jews came to this Island seeking refuge.
Moshe-bin-Ashe was one of them.
Besides expanding his business
he's also worked towards the welfare of Mauritius' people.
His family is expected any minute from abroad.

What's the story today?
The boat arrived late.
Fine, make some space at the back.
But that place is already packed.
Do you use your brain only to make excuses?
Make some space at the back.
We're expecting antique stuff from Ben asher's house.
- Are they going to sell it? - Why not?
Whether it's a saint or a Jew? Everyone has one God.
- Right! - And lock the door properly.
Yes.

Last night in your favourite city.
What happened?
Worried about your interior designs?
We discussed that you can start all over from there.
[ambulance siren]
I know. But Sam. What about my friends?
My circle?
I grew up in this city.
Leaving everything behind one fine day.
It's not easy, you know. You won't understand.
Come on, we've been over this before.
I took this assignment with your approval. Right?
Come on.
Baby, it's a beautiful island.
You'll love it there.
And it's only for two years.
Sam, we'll be all alone out there.
If there's an emergency, we've got people here.
There's mom and dad.
[exhales]
Sam.
Maybe we're still far away for them.
Why else they haven't even visited us once in two years?
They are still furious over their daughter marrying a Christian boy...
[exhales]
You know what, let's forget about all of this.
Let's start afresh.
Let's go there and start a family.
Once we do that, then everything will be fine.
I promise.

Name's Masood. The night watchman.
Sir!
[camera clicks]
When I arrived in the morning
and noticed that strange imprint on the shutter
I tried calling him.
I tried calling him a couple of times but he didn't answer.
Then I broke open the back door and entered inside and saw that Masood...
Is there any other way to get in?
Any friend or girlfriend?
He was alone.
He's been with me for seven years.
- Body? - At the back, sir.

The biggest advantage of Mauritius is its geography.
It's located between the two continents in the Indian Ocean.
This is why for many years now
Mauritius has been trying to become Europe's nuclear waste disposal hub.
And we at Zayke are very, very happy to collaborate with them.
With, of course, technical help from the Indian government.
I would like to invite
our vice-president of operations Sam Isaac.
- Thank you. - Thank you, Sanjay.
[clears throat]
The most important aspect while executing this project is security.
Zayke understands the risks involved in the disposing of nuclear waste.
Especially when it is a deadly dose of high radiation elements
like Neptunium and Plutonium.
And even a minor leakage
can contaminate the water and pose a threat to the entire island.
But that's where Zayke's expertise comes into the picture.
We've kept three-level biometric access for security clearance
and only I will have the final approval.
Let me show it to you.
[censor beep]
So first we have an access card and a thump print. [censor beep]
[door opens]
Followed by voice recognition and a security code.
Sam Isaac.
[keypad beep]

And finally, face recognition.
This opens up to our underground tunnel which leads to our storage hub.

Stop nuclear waste! Stop nuclear waste!

Will these activists be a problem?
The embassy will handle them.
I'll introduce you to inspector Riyaz Ahmed.
He's the chief inspector here.
You can tell him if you any problems, he will handle it.
Okay.
How is Mahi?
Trying to adjust to the new world.
[chuckle]
She looking for a job?
Already found one.
She's doing the interior of our villa.
As they say, charity begins at home.
That's good. That's good.
[phone ringing]
Hi, Riyaz! How are you?
All good, Sanjay.
Yeah, you had called.
Yeah. Actually, I wanted to introduce you to our new head of operations.
Mr. Sam Isaac.
I am going to South Africa for a month, so...
Actually Sanjay, I am occupied with an important case.
Doesn't matter. Pay him a visit whenever you get the time.
Sure. Sure.
Alright. You take care.
See. Done.
[vehicle approaching]
- Sir, here's the agreement's copy. - Yeah.
Okay, sir, let me know if you need anything.
- Okay, sir. - Alright!
- Sarvesh. - Yes, sir.
What about the maid?
Hasn't she arrived yet?
Sorry, sir. I'll find out and call you.
Okay.
[birds chirping]
[motorbike approaching]
[air flowing]
- Yes? - Joshina.
Sarvesh sent me here to work.
Are you Sam?
Yes, I am Sam. You can start tomorrow.
Tomorrow.
I'll go back in the evening.
Mahi.
[keypad clanking]
Feeling romantic in the morning.
It's the place. Don't you think?
No.
I think it's because of me.
Fine, you can take credit for it.
[laugs]
Mahi, do you like this place?
Why else would I think of decorating the place?
I was wondering how would heritage theme look for the place?
Bright colours, radiant. What say?
But don't you prefer subtle colours.
Yes, but choices change with time.
Now you're scaring me.
Not if you do something exciting.

Matching his energy isn't easy.
Are you two on vacation?
No, we recently moved here.
Really? Where?
Grant Bay, Bungalow no. 3.
Oh, that beautiful colonial house.
But it was bought by some company.
Zayke. I work for that company.
Great. I live in the second lane.
- Milind Sanghvi. - Sam Isaac.
- Hi. - That's my wife Mahi Sood.
- Hello! - Hi. Hi.
- And this must be Czar. - Yes, he is.
Came here 15-years-ago to start my own business.
And then stayed back.
And your family?
There they are.
- Dad, we missed the bus. - Again?
- Yes. - I'll drop her.
That's my daughter Darshana. And this is my grandchild.
They are our new neighbours.
- Oh, hi! Welcome to the neighbourhood. - Hi!
Why don't you guys come in for some coffee?
No, I've a meeting. I'll be late.
- Some other time. - Sure.
Nice meeting you guys.
- Thank you. Bye. - We'll see you soon.
- See you. Bye. - See you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Missed the bus again
[phone ringing]
Wrong number?
You're still a child.
Correction.
Last time you saw me when I was still a child.
Come on, father.
You're my only relative and this is how...
I'll give you two a big surprise when the church fest is over.
[chuckles]
I've been hearing this since I got married.
Just building up the surprise.
How is Mahi now?
She took time to recover.
You know how it is, father.
Dealing with a miscarriage isn't easy.
I understand.
But she's better now.
The good thing is she likes Mauritius.
And it's also been a change for her.
- That's good. - Yeah!
Okay Sam, see you soon.
Okay, father, I'll be waiting.

I saw her with my own eyes. She grabbed my hand...
There were marks here.
- Mahi... - There were marks here.
Mahi, look at me. You're stressed.
- Clearly, you're not getting enough sleep. - Sam...
- It's just because of that. - How do I tell you? Trust me.
- Come here. - I am not lying.
Take it easy, baby. Take it easy. Relax.
Calm down.
I am there.
Don't worry.
- Sam, I am scared. - What are you scared of?
- I stay alone at home all day. - You're not alone.
I'm just a phone call away.

Thank you.
Did you hear the noise too?
No.
I was asleep.
She didn't hear me fall down either.
That's how deep asleep she was.
Fine, I'll ask around.
If anyone's has seen anything unusual then I will let you know.
- Thank you. - Pleasure.

How is Mahi?
She must be missing her parents.
She talks to her mother sometimes on the phone.
Her dad's still stern.
Obviously. His daughter chose you.
I see, now you're on his side.
Don't forget who advised us to elope and get married in court.
When the parents don't agree
what other advice can you give two lovers?
And see, you two are happy because of my advice.
Yeah.
What happened? Something wrong.
I don't know, father.
Sometimes everything seems normal.
But then I get this weird feeling.
Weird?
I don't know.

In the name of the father, and the son, and the holy spirit.
Amen.
Mahi.
Mahi. Mahi.
[machine beep]
Nothing to worry about.
She blacked out due to over-exertion.
We'll run a test again this week whenever you're free.
I'll prescribe some medications.
And she can go home as soon as the drip's over.
- Okay? - Thank you, doctor.
No problem.
[rainfall]
Whatever is happening in this house
and what you told me...
I know why and how it's happening?
Who opened the wine cabinet?
Mahi did. Why?
It's a Dybbuk.
Dybbuk.
During the 16th century some Jewish people performed a ritual
separating dissatisfied souls from the body and sealing them in a box.
This box is called a Dybbuk.
They call these spirits 'Shedim' in Hebrew.
These rituals are conducted for different purposes.
But come what may, the Dybbuk should never be opened.
It's said that if it's opened
then the spirit from the Dybbuk can possess anyone.
I... I don't believe this.
You mean that Mahi...
I don't know if Mahi is possessed.
Or this house is haunted.
I don't know if it's true or not.
[sky thundering]
But what if we get rid of the box?
That won't help.
Once the spirit is released
the box doesn't matter.
So now?
There's a Hebrew inscription on the box
We must understand that first.
Maybe that might help.
[phone ringing]
Yes, professor.
Father, I've mailed you a translation
You were right.
It's pretty complicated.
And I've sent you the contact of Rabbi Benyamin.
- He's a good friend of mine. - Yes.
From Bombay Chabad House.
He will help you.
Actually, only he can help you.
Thank you, professor.
[rustle]
Trying to understand.
Trying to believe.
There are things in this world beyond our limitations.
At that time only faith helps.
Only Rabbi Benyamin can do something.
But I don't know how practical it is.
If this is the only way to save Mahi, then so be it.
[airplane rumble]
The horrors of the night and the torture of the day
will not hunt you anymore.
Plagues and epidemics will fear your faith.
Rabbi.
[footfalls]
Sir, Sam Isaac here to see you.
Let him in.
Tomorrow we will learn about new sects of Jews.
Markus is here.
Yes, we will beat him today.
Yes.
[clanking]
A person like you who believes in science
can't believe in these things too.
What I saw cannot be answered scientifically.
Sam, Dybbuk is a story.
Like a folktale in Jewish culture.
It's hard to say how much truth there is in it.
Markus, ball.
Let's assume it's a Dybbuk.
It cannot possess anyone easily.
It posses only those people whose body and soul are not connected.
Not aligned properly.
For example...
Markus, ball.
Markus.
There is no such thing in your case.
So you don't have to worry.
[clears throat]
Markus has taken the foosball, he is not letting us play.
He's always like this.
Markus, stop troubling the kids.
Yes! Come...
That's Rabbi Markus, my son.
He was in Bombay Chabad house with me.
As I was saying, the Dybbuk has nothing to do in your case.
[phone ringing]
Excuse me.
Mahi. All okay?
Where are you? I've been trying to call you.
I am in a meeting. What is it?
Shall I give you the good news now or later?
Good news?
You're becoming a father.
Finally, we're starting a family.
Are you serious? That's great news.
We should celebrate. When are you coming back?
Today.
I'll call you back in 10 minutes.
Sam, listen.
Wife?
Yeah, she's pregnant.
What did you say?
My wife. She's pregnant.
Mahi.
What were you so busy with that you couldn't find the time?
Finally...
You said that everything will be fine now.
Are you happy?
Let's assume it's a Dybbuk.
It posses only those people whose body and soul are not aligned.
Not aligned properly.
For example those with mental issues.
Something like fear psychosis.
Or a newborn child.
Because after being born
a child's body and soul takes time to align.
What did you say?
My wife. She's pregnant.
Your doubt is right.
Dybbuk has possessed your unborn child.
It's too late.
Any rabbi who performs this exorcism
will become the spirit's biggest enemy.
[boat honking]
Unbelievable.
What are you saying?
How is this possible?
But you said he refused.
I requested him repeatedly.
He knew I didn't have a choice.
So he called me to Chabad House next day to find a solution.
But...
[Hebrish prayer]
[sky thundering & rainfall]
The spirit from the Dybbuk box
won't leave until it destroys everything.
But there must be a way.
What if...
We go for abortion.
If we do that it will endanger Mahi's life.
Remember, he isn't your child anymore.
It's a malicious spirit.
Whatever Mahi's seeing, imagining, feeling, is it's will.
Dybbuk wants to return to this world through your child.
The carrier of the spirit.
We have to find out your child's gender to know Dybbuk's real intention.
I must know your child's gender.
Until then, we just have to wait.
What do I do, Marcus?
Can't you come with me...at least once?
I will.
But not right now
Look, Sam, we've only one opportunity.
And I must thoroughly prepare for it.
Until, then...
[chink]
Keep this Khamsa Locket.
We Jews have a lot of faith in it.
This will protect you for the time being.
And take care.
And yes spirits are more powerf in places where there's a reflection.
So don't leave a single mirror in home.

Why are you doing this?
You said you saw something weird in the mirror.
You were scared.
So...
Did you see it too?
This house is haunted, isn't it?
That real estate agent should've informed us.
I even asked Joshina, and that's...
Mahi... you're going off-track again.
All this is for Junior Sam.
It is senior Sam's responsibility to ensure
his safe landing in this world, isn't it?
[kiss]
How do you know it is going to be Junior Sam?
It could be Junior Mahi.

Let her rest for now. Then we'll see.
Sam, it is crucial to have a female support during pregnancy.
Yes, her mom is arriving day after tomorrow.
That's great.

That's close to my office.
[anklet clanking]

Why should I be bothered about that?
I was only interested in the antique box.
Try and re-collect.
Was there a book, or anything written around that box?
Moshe's house always had a pile of books.

Norah.
You're going to Rodrigues again.
Norah, I am learning business from my father.
We can get married only when I have the money.
Someone might see us here. You should leave.
I'll be back soon.
Okay?
'It all started with love between Ezra and a Christian girl Norah.'
[neigh]
'Abraham was the son of Mauritius' rich trader Yakub Ezra.'
'Yaqub was among the first generation of Jews in Mauritius'
'who migrated from France during the Second World war seeking refuge.'
'He learnt the language and culture of Mauritius'
'only to expand his business.'
Not here. Over there.
'But at heart he was a fanatic Jew.'
Couldn't find another one?
No father.
Moshe, keep it.
'Yakub had achieved expertise in Kaballah' - A Jewish black magic ritual
'Yaqub had attained expertise in it.'
'He believed it could do miracles.'

'And he gave the credit of all his success to this art.'

'But Ezra's thinking was different from his father.'
[birds chirping]
I got this for you from Rodriguez.
For me?
Jewish girls wear this on their wedding.
[sky thundering]

'Norah was pregnant with Ezra's child.'
'She was scared they won't be allowed to get married'
'due to religious differences.'
Times when water was mixed with wine is history now.
Wine is wine.
Water is water.
The two have never been one. And they never will.
Father.
'Yaqub didn't pay any heed to Ezra'
'and held him captive on Rodriguez island.'
'Norah kept her hopes on every boat that arrived.'
'But how long could she keep this secret from her parents?'
'Days, weeks, months went by. Ezra never returned.'
'But Norah didn't mention Ezra's name to anyone.'
'And one day Abraham wrote his last letter to Norah from Rodrigues'
'and sent it through his servant.'
Norah, we're not destined to meet.
And please forgive me if you can.
Ezra.
[sighs]
My child!
Norah. [crying]
'Norah's father found the reason behind her death.'
'The villagers were waiting for Ezra.'
'And what followed, this island can never forget.'
[Indistinct chatter]
Stop.
Father, father, father.
Father.
Leave him. Don't beat him.
What are you doing?
- Ezra, run. - Father.
Ezra!
Ezra, run.
'Ezra's internal injuries were grave.'
'Doctor told that Ezra wouldn't be able to live a normal life again.'
[crying]
'Yakub couldn't bear to see his son in this condition.'
'And he didn't want to forgive the people responsible for this.'
'He wanted revenge from the entire island.'
'So he created the dybbuk through Kabala.'
'And he decided to keep Ezra's spirit safe in a wine box.'
'Yakub associated a curse with the Dybbuk.'
'When the last Jew on the island dies'
'this dybbuk will possess a body that will be potent enough'
'to completely destroy this land and its people.'
'There's a condition for making a dybbuk.'
'The body cannot be buried or cremated.'
'After the ritual, Yaqub dumped Ezra's body'
'eight nautical miles from the lighthouse in the Indian Ocean.'
'No one at the graveyard knew that a fake body was being buried.'
'Everyone believed it was Ezra's body.'

But who's the girl that Maahi kept seeing?
Norah. She was trying to stop Ezra.
He hasn't returned my calls in two years.
He has mellowed down a lot.
You won't believe but he dropped me to the airport.
It's hard to believe.

It's plutonium. Categorized high risk.
Okay?
Don't worry. I'll handle it.

Mahi, it not illegal here but why do you want to know?
How does it matter if it's a boy or a girl?

Sir is taking a shower. Madam's at the hospital with her mother.
Did you hear what happened at Mr. Milind's place?
Yes.
Did you see anyone suspicious around his home?
I would step out if I get some time off from this place.
Come in. Sir will be here soon.
Come.
What is all this?
Don't ask, sir. Madam's lost an anklet like this one.
She can't seem to find it.
We've searched the entire house.

Sam, the antique box...
You hearing some one's footsteps at night
Mahi's missing anklet and then Milind's dog.
Don't you feel all this is connected?
Sam, are you trying to hide something?
- Is there... - Sam. There you are.
Mahi needs you. Hurry up.
All okay, father?
They have become victims of someone else's revenge.

If what you're saying is true
then the antique store's watchman Masood
was the dybbuk's first victim.
- What options do we have, father? - Exorcism.
That is the only option you have.
It's Yom Kippur tomorrow.
And according to Jewish people
the lord decides who lives or dies next year on this day.
And that is written in the judgment book.
On the day of 'Yom Kippur' the spirit must be separated from the body.
And if that doesn't happen then the spirit will completely possess the body
and cause mayhem.
Total destruction.
And we don't have too long.
But before performing the exorcism
we must confirm everything that is written in the book.
And for that, we must dig Abraham Ezra's grave.
That cemetery is a heritage site, how can we...
What good is the heritage site if the entire land is destroyed?
Only few hours a left for Yom Kippur.
Let's go.
[vehicle approaching]
Exorcism will be completed
only after we dump the dybbuk box before sunrise in
the same place where his body was dumped.
Eight nautical miles from the lighthouse.
And I'll need 10 Jews to complete the exorcism.
At this hour...at short such notice...
It is mandatory.
To complete any Jewish ritual one needs 10 Jews.
It won't work otherwise.
[clank]
[metal door creaking]
Markus.
[digging]
[thud]
Everything written in the book is right.
Ezra was never buried.
[police siren blaring]
[rainfall]
[phone ringing]
Hello.
- Markus. - Yes.
Our fears have come true. We have to rush to the nuclear hub.
Fine, I'm on my way.
Okay. Stop the car.
And listen, call Sanjay and meet me at the hub. Quick.
And you?
- I'll meet you directly at Synagogue. - Okay.
And listen, be careful.
Go.
[electricity crackling]
[electric shocks]
[breathing heavily]
What is going on?
Father?
Mahi?
Get me out of here.
Why have you tied me up?
Mahi, get me out of here.
Sam. It's you.
Abraham Ezra has possessed you.
Yaqub Ezra's revenge will be taken through you.
You'll be responsible for this island's destruction.
That night it was a trap laid for you.
[groans]
[glass crackling]
Mahi, please.
Sam!
Please...
- Sam. - Mahi.
Who are you?
I asked who are you?
Ezra. Abraham Ezra
What is it that you seek?
You shouldn't be here.
That night... I found it strange seeing the access card in your hand.
But soon I understood...
why the spirit from the dybbuk box would have possessed you.
You could've fulfilled his motive just by pressing a few buttons.
Father, Sam is the target.
But how?
When Ezra's spirit was released from the box
he immediately possessed Mahi's child.
But the unborn was the interim host.
His real motive was the destruction of this island.
And what could be better than a nuclear hub?
Expose the entire place to radiation.
And the easiest way for that was SAM.
[keypad beep]
Father, I need to ask you one more thing.
He only possessed those whose body and spirit are not well aligned.
For example, those with mental illness.
Something like fear psychosis.
Did Sam ever have such issues?
Yes.
'Sam was only seven'
'when his parents' accident took a heavy toll on his mind.'
'He battled mental distress for a couple of months.'
'But he became normal with medication and counseling.'
So seeing Mahi in this condition, made Sam mentally stressed again.
[breathing heavily]
We must find out the gender of Mahi's child.
Why?
Because Ezra will only possess Sam's body if Mahi's child is a male.
'When it was confirmed through the scan that Mahi's child was a male'
'I was convinced that Sam is possessed.'
'If Sam's conscious mind knew this'
'then the exorcism wouldn't be possible.'
'So we had to continue lying about Mahi's possession.'
'Maahi cooperated with us too.'
[sky thundering]
[electricity crackling]
[electric shocks]
[splash]
[lighting fire]
It's futile to stop me, Markus.
I won't leave until I've destroyed everything.
I must fulfil my father's revenge.
Don't cross my path if you want to live.
Put everything in this box that binds you with Sam.
Without Sam's firm resolve
We cannot get the spirit to leave his body.
[squish]
[chink]
Markus, these are Jewish tourists.
I've explained everything to them.
Father.
Mahi. Not you.
[door clanking]
Dybbuk will try to scare you.
But do not stop chanting come what may.
Your safety is my responsibility.
[splash]
[Prayer in Hebrew]
[electricity crackling]
[fluttering]
[screaming]
[glass shatters]
Sam.
S...
[Prayer in Hebrew]
[horn blaring]
Sam.
Sam. Sam, wake up.
Open your eyes. Sam.
Sam.
[breathing heavily]
Are you okay?
Sam.
Riyaz, we've to hurry.
[motorboat engine approaching]
Is this it?
[splash]
[phone ringing]
Hey, Sam.
'Marcus, there's some good news.'
Congratulations to both of you.
I am coming to meet junior Sam right now.
We'll see you. Bye.
Bye.
Look at him.
[laughs]
