00:00Hi, welcome back to my channel.

00:02In this video, I will explain the ending of Holy Spider.

00:04So, let's begin.

00:06Directed by Ali Abbasi, Holy Spider is a crime thriller movie based on the real-life crimes

00:10of a serial killer, Saeed Haniyeh.

00:13The film features actors like Zahra Mirabrahimi, Mehdi Bajistani, and Arash Ashtiani alongside

00:18others.

00:20Set in the holy city of Mashhad in Iran, it follows the story of a dedicated journalist,

00:24Arzu Rahimi, as she investigates the numerous murders of female sex workers in the streets

00:29of Mashhad.

00:30The film also focuses on the serial killer himself, Saeed Azimi, and tries to showcase

00:35his twisted psyche and ideology as he kills woman after woman in the name of cleansing

00:39the world of sin and decadence.

00:41With a focus on the plight of sexism as a social and cultural matter, Holy Spider explores

00:45themes of corruption, injustice, and violence incited by extremist religious beliefs.

00:51If you're curious about how Arzu's investigation unfolds and what fate lies ahead of Saeed,

00:55then here is everything you need to know about the ending.

00:58Just to let you know this video will contain spoilers.

01:01Holy Spider follows journalist Arzu Rahimi in her steadfast investigation against Mashhad's

01:05notorious serial killer, dubbed the The Spider Killer.

01:09The Spider Killer targets female sex workers, lures them back to his isolated apartment,

01:13and then strangles them to death with their headscarves.

01:16He ties the scarf around their neck twice, as his signature, and dumps their body in

01:20some remote area.

01:22In Rahimi's investigation, she finds out that the killer has been contacting her boss, Sharifi

01:27after every kill to inform him about the locations of the body.

01:31Furthermore, she also finds out that the killings aren't just random but instead a targeted

01:35crusade against sex workers in Mashhad, whom the killer considers to be morally corrupt

01:39sinners.

01:41As Rahimi continues with her investigation, she receives minimum to no help from the police

01:45and starts to suspect a bigger religious conspiracy at play.

01:49As the body keeps piling up, with no promising development from the police in catching the

01:53killer, Rahimi decides to take matters into her own hands.

01:57Meanwhile, Saeed Azimi, a mason by day and killer by night, leads his double life hiding

02:02his sinister secrets from his wife and kids.

02:05He makes his moves on the nights when his family isn't home.

02:08Saeed drives out to the city square on his motorcycle and picks up a woman as his victim

02:13to take back home.

02:15After Rahimi realizes the police are as likely to help as they are to hurt, she decides to

02:19dress up as a sex worker to find out the killer's true identity on her own.

02:23It isn't long before she comes across Saeed Saeed, who takes her home with him.

02:27Sharifi follows behind in his car.

02:30However, through the maze-like twists and turns, he quickly loses sight of them.

02:35Now trapped inside Saeed's territory, Rahimi has no choice but to face the man all on her

02:39own.

02:40When Saeed tries to choke her, she tries to fight him off.

02:44After a tense fight for her life, Rahimi manages to flee the apartment with a secured audio

02:48recording of the whole situation.

02:50Lastly, all that's left is for Saeed to be put on trial and served with punishment.

02:55However, soon after, a large part of the community comes out in support of Saeed.

03:00They perceive his actions to be morally righteous and demand freedom for him.

03:04Likewise, Saeed's family isn't horrified at his actions after his arrest either.

03:08Instead, they are only frustrated at the consequences born from his killing spree.

03:14Saeed's son, Ali, who idolizes him, witnesses the swarms of support for his father and ends

03:18up inheriting Saeed's beliefs.

03:21As Saeed's trial continues, Rahimi and Sharifi interview many people involved in the case

03:25for their paper and stay closely connected to it themselves.

03:29In the end, after the court finds Saeed guilty of his crimes and serves him with heavy sentences,

03:33only one question remains.

03:36Would Saeed be hanged for his crimes, or will the corrupt system find a way to help him

03:39escape his fate?

03:41How was the Spider Killer Caught?

03:43Even though the Spider Killer, Saeed Azimi, is a sloppy serial killer with an M.O. that

03:48should leave his fingerprints all over the victim's clothing, it still takes 16 kills

03:52for someone to catch him.

03:53The police are very negligent towards the case, with an order from the people above

03:57to avoid cases that can be classified as religious.

04:01Moreover, a significant part of the community seems to simply not care about the massive

04:05target on the backs of women that fall victim to the Spider Killer.

04:09As far as they are concerned, these women are immoral addicts, and their deaths aren't

04:13something to mourn.

04:14In fact, Arzu Rahimi seems to be the only person who actively wants to find the Spider

04:18Killer and bring him to justice.

04:21Due to the aforementioned sloppiness of Saeed Azimi, once Rahimi starts looking into the

04:25case, she finds a thread that leads her to him.

04:28She seeks out the mother of Sogra, a victim Rahimi had once spoken to.

04:32Though Sogra's mother is initially unwilling to talk to Rahimi about her daughter, she

04:36eventually opens up to Rahimi.

04:38Saeed rides into the square on a motorcycle and picks up his victims without any care

04:42about possible witnesses.

04:45Most likely, Saeed simply doesn't believe there are people who care enough about these

04:48women to take notice of their disappearance.

04:50However, his assumption proves to be wrong.

04:54Other sex workers notice him and his pattern as well.

04:56Therefore, Sogra's mother is able to provide Rahimi with vital information about the killer.

05:02With this information, Rahimi is able to set up a trap for Saeed with herself as bait and

05:06successfully catches him.

05:08Why was the spider killer hanged?

05:11During Saeed's trial, he receives overwhelming support from the masses.

05:15Their support, in turn, makes Saeed feel invincible, and he decides to stand firm in his belief

05:19in the righteousness of his crimes.

05:22When his lawyer proposes claiming mental instability as their defense, Saeed agrees but goes off

05:26script at the last moment.

05:28He claims everything he had done had been for the 8th Imam and God and takes full responsibility

05:33for his actions.

05:34He believes his hatred and violence towards female sex workers are justified, and the

05:38court would not hold him in contempt due to the immense public support.

05:42Nevertheless, after his trial comes to an end, the court finds him guilty of all charges

05:47and sentences him to 100 flogs and death.

05:50The war he had waged against poor and helpless women was far more immoral than anything the

05:53women themselves were doing.

05:56They had been victims of their circumstances, steeped in poverty in a patriarchal society.

06:01Though the issue of street-side prostitution is a topic of grave concern, the solution

06:05to it is not violent murders.

06:07After receiving his sentence, Saeed returns to his cell, where he meets his friend Haji.

06:12Haji assures him that the death sentence he received had only been for superficial reasons

06:16and that on the day of his execution, he would be secretly escorted to a car and then rescued.

06:21When that day does come, Saeed is almost giddy with his friend's master plan and walks to

06:25his death without care.

06:27However, when he reaches the room where he will be hanged, he is handcuffed and pushed

06:31towards the noose instead of being taken to any car.

06:34Ultimately, Saeed chokes to death, just as his victims had.

06:38Does Ali, Saeed's son, also become a serial killer?

06:42Through all the support and idolization that Saeed receives, the most adamant of them comes

06:46from his son, Ali.

06:48After Saeed's arrest, Ali goes to his mother, Fatima, to ask her about the reason behind

06:52his father's arrest.

06:54Fatima has a similar ideology as Saeed.

06:57Therefore, she teaches Ali that his father had done the right thing by killing those

07:01women.

07:02Moreover, Ali witnesses his entire community celebrating his father's actions and hailing

07:06him as a hero.

07:08As a result, he forms an unshakable opinion that his father has done nothing wrong.

07:13As far as Ali is concerned, if anything, the crusade against female sex workers in his

07:17city needs to continue.

07:19When Saeed's trial is going on, Rahimi interviews several people, including Saeed's son Ali.

07:25After Saeed's execution, Rahimi gets on a bus to travel back to her home.

07:29On the bus, she watches the same interview she took of Ali.

07:33In the video, Ali extensively goes on to explain the exact ways in which Saeed killed all those

07:37women.

07:39For a more accurate representation, he even goes as far as to call his little sister to

07:43play the role of the victim and pretends to kneel on her neck, choking her to death.

07:47It's obvious he can't see the disturbing image he made.

07:50Ali is too blinded by the misogynistic values that have been instilled in him by society

07:55and his family.

07:56It is impossible to know for certain whether Ali followed in his father's footsteps or

08:00not.

08:01If another spider killer were to emerge, the people of Mashhad would hardly vilify him

08:05for his crimes.

08:07Many people had even expressed their expectations for Ali to finish the job his father had started.

08:12Moreover, if Ali isn't moved to action, then some other man with enough hatred in his heart

08:16is bound to.

08:18The film doesn't seem eager to make any statements about Ali's future.

08:22It leaves it up in the air, open to interpretation.

08:25However, the one statement Polly Spider is eager to make is that of the social perception

08:29of women in a society like Mashhad's.

08:32Sex workers in a violently patriarchal society are among the lowest in society's food chain.

08:38With limited rights, these people face extreme prejudice and no tangible way to escape from

08:42their situations.

08:44That's all for now folks.

08:45I would appreciate it if you could give the video a super thanks with a thumbs up and
