Poet, The (2007)

[bunniefuu]

Please cooperate with the soldiers.

They will take you to the
boarding area of your train.

Hot food and hot showers await,
as do your family members.

Please cooperate.

Any information you provide to us
will be rewarded

with extra food
and private quarters.

Departments
are not your friends; we are.

Trust us,
and you will be rewarded.

We are here to bring the peace
and glory of the Third Reich to Poland.

You should not
have sent our son to Poland.

This version of the tank will
go kilometers faster, Marlene.

kilometers.

Did you hear what I said?

What?

You should not have sent
our son to Poland.

His spy unit
will blend right in.

They will root out
the Polish partisans

and allow us to put an end
to the nuisance.

They're going to make a man
out of our son now, Marlene.

Oskar is already a man,

a fine man.

He's a gifted writer
and artist.

Ja, there is a time for poetry,

but that time is not now.

How cruel we
become when given license.

They call it w*r to justify it.

Its true name is madness.

You have no understanding
of the glory that awaits.

Awaits?

- Awaits their greed, their- their hate?
- No...

awaits victory, hmm?

There is no victory.

There is only loss and pain.

"A kingdom imposed by a force
will never last".

You sound like Oskar.

It is a line
from one of his poems.

I know.

You do not appreciate
the beauty of our movement.

Beauty?

What beauty?

The beauty of a people
united in thought,

in word, deed, and purpose.

Marlene,
when I go to church and pray,

I feel the blessing of God
in what we are doing.

How can you say that?

We are witness
to a great becoming

and you know what
we owe it, hmm?

No.

We owe it awe.

Ja?

¶ Tum fa la la, tum fa
la la, come, let's go dancing ¶

¶ twirling and swirling,
whirling romancing ¶

¶ Fa la la la,
la la la la-la ¶

¶ Dance with me, sing with me
all through the night ¶

That was good.

Really, go on.

¶ Tum fa la la, tum
fa la la, let's dance again ¶

¶ Chasing our dreams
and running with them ¶

¶ Fa la la la,
la la la la-la ¶

¶ Dance with me, sing with me
all through the night ¶

¶ All through the night ¶

That was good.

She sings good,
doesn't she?

Oh, very nice.

I'm going to sing
at Rachel's wedding to Bernard.

Can I sing too, Mommy?

Of course you can.

Will you teach me a song,
Rachel?

A storm is coming, Rachel.

I think you should head for home

before it gets bad.

I'll teach you a song next week.

All right?
I promise.

Are you excited
about getting married?

Yes.

You don't sound excited.

Well, maybe I'm
a little bit nervous.

Why?

Well, because-

because marriage
is very, very serious.

You'll look-

you'll be the most
beautiful bride ever.

Well, thank you, Eloise.

You should go back now.

See you Tuesday.

"When love beckons, follow,

"though its ways are hard
and steep.

"And when its wings enfold you, yield,

though the sword hidden among its pinions
wounds your heart".

"When love beckons, follow,

"though its ways
are hard and steep,

"and when its wings enfold you, yield,

though the sword hidden among its pinions
wounds your heart".

I was dying.

A knight with a white horse
rescued me,

and I slept
a thousand years.

What were you doing
out there?

I was going home,
and the storm started.

I was lucky
you found me.

I was lucky.

"When love beckons, follow".

What were you
doing out in the storm?

I could lie.

I'm supposed to lie.

Lie to me?

To everyone.

I am a German officer.

Part of a special unit

to infiltrate
the Polish countryside.

This farm is my base.

German officer?

Yes.

I'm a Jew...

the daughter
of a rabbi, and...

I am to be married
next week to Bernard.

Do you love him?

He's a good man.

He-he's an honorable man.

Do you love him?

I thought I did.

Do you want to marry him?

I don't know.

I don't think I can now.

Oskar!

Oskar Koenig!

Who is that?

Oskar!

Oskar Koenig!

Oskar.

Oskar.

Germany has successfully
invaded Poland.

So, this is our
little Polish home.

Oh, ja?

Ja, your father was pleased, ja.

Not a single drop
of German blood

in the whole invasion, Oskar.

- Prosit.
- That's good.

Poland is now
a part of Germany.

Well, what have we here?

Shh.

And Russia.

Ja, well, we know what Hitler
has in mind for Russia.

- To Germany.
- To Germany.

To Germany.

You like Oskar?

His father's a general,
you know.

But, I think
you would like me more.

I'm a bigger man
in every way.

Come here.
Come here.

Gentlemen, look what Oskar's
been up to.

Oh, Oskar, you have
good taste in women.

She's a beauty.

She's here to clean.

Clean?

Is that what they
call it now?

Nice body.

Jew?

Sleeping with her,
Oskar?

With a Jewish peasant?
Come on.

Well, she looks good to me.

If you don't want her,
I'll have her.

You know, they're good in bed,
the Jews.

You know that?

She's very nice.

What's your name?

What is your name, Jew?

Rachel.

Tell me,

are you good in bed?

I think she likes you, Oskar.

You do like Oskar,
don't you?

What's this, tears?

Oh, look,
a Jew crying.

She must have thought
you really loved her, Oskar.

Oh, I am sorry,

but a German
could never love a Jew.

You like that, ja?

Take her clothes off.

That would be fun,

but I have to get her
to the general's house.

- What general?
- My father.

He's here?

Ja, she's preparing
his house.

He's arriving today.

Ja, probably his bed
as well, huh?

Ja, first the son,
then the father.

I don't know, there's still
time for a little something.

No time.

If the house is not ready,
I am the one who pays, not you.

You should get in trouble,

sleeping with
your father's girl.

Come on, look at her.
Can you blame me?

No, I don't blame you,
Oskar.

Come on, Jew,
let's go.

I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

I'm going
to walk her out.

Oskar, she's Jewish,
not blind.

She can see the door.

Ja, but I have to give
her a horse.

You know my father;
he loves to ride.

She can ride.

I bet she can ride.

Ja, your father does
love to ride, huh?

- Bye, Rachel.
- You come back.

We will miss you, Rachel!

Very nice, huh?

Can you ride?

Yes.

You must get away from here.

Find your family
and get far away.

I love you.

No, you don't.

Yes, I do.

You're a liar.

I was trying
to protect you.

I'm not a fool.

Rachel, look at me.

Look at me.
Look at me.

Yes, I lied.

I lied to German officers
during a time of w*r.

Do you know
what that means?

I put myself at risk
to save you.

I'm never
going to see you again.

Where do you live?

I will come
and see you tomorrow.

You can't come
to my house.

Why not?

You're a German.

My father
will k*ll us both.

Where do you live?

Herkov street,
village Kahr.

I will see you tomorrow.

If you mean what you say,
why don't you come with me now?

To your village?

We can run away
and go someplace else.

I can't do that.

Why not?

I'm in the army.

We wouldn't stand a chance,
you a Jew, me a deserter.

This Jew walks into the
middle of the bridge and stood there.

He wouldn't
let our soldiers pass.

Then he threw a stone at them.

Well, what was
he thinking?

The village, village Kahr?

Ja, village Kahr.

What happened?

Orders were given to attack
the whole village, k*ll everyone.

It's a good thing
that Jew of yours

is on her way
to clean your father's, ja?

Damn it.

What?

I forgot to give her the key.

Well, go, Oskar.

Go and find her!

Rachel!

Bernard, what are you doing here?

Your father said you were
at the Rostig farm.

I saw Germans there.

I couldn't go in.

I've been looking for you.

Rachel...

the Germans are in the village,
k*lling everyone.

- Our families.
- No, they got out.

Let go.
I have to get back to the village.

Rachel!

Our parents are not
in the village.

We're to meet them
at the Vorga side road.

I should have made
the rest of them come with us.

How?

I'm a rabbi;
I'm supposed to lead.

We have to try
and get out of Poland.

It's not safe here.

They'll k*ll us,
all of us.

Halt! We will sh**t!

Halt! Halt! We will sh**t!

Stop!

Papa!

Halt! Halt!

Wait!

Wait!

Who's in charge?

I am.

These two work for me.

Who are you?

I'm Oskar Koenig,

an officer in the German army.

My father
is General Martin Koenig.

These two are members
of his intelligence unit.

I am in charge of that unit.

I will take care of them.

I will take care of them!

Go now!

Go!

You must leave here.

Keep moving.

If the Germans catch you,
they will k*ll you.

I know.

Do you have money?

No.

Here.

- Take this.
- Who are you?

Oskar Koenig.

That's what you said
to the German soldiers.

I'm Rachel.

This is Bernard.

Please, take it.

You will need it.

Why are you doing this?

I don't share
some of my countrymen's views.

Do you have horses?

We have one.

Well, now you have two.

I'm not going to hurt you.

I'll do it.

And get rid
of the religious clothes.

Keep the knife.

You will need it.

Take care of her.

I will.

Thank you.

Stick to the woods.

Head towards Russia.

Get over the pass
before winter sets in.

You stay alive,
no matter what you have to do.

You stay alive.

We will.

I promise.

Come with us.

I can't.

Yes, you can.

No, I can't.

Rachel.

Rachel.

Why did you ask him
to come with us?

He saved our lives.

He-he saved two Jews. I...

I am grateful there are
some decent Germans.

"How cruel we
become when given license.

"They call it w*r to justify it.

"Its true name is madness.

"We fight, we k*ll,
and be k*lled.

"Eventually this w*r,
like all others, will end.

"Then we will amend bridges
with our enemies,

"make them our friends
and partners.

To what end was it all?"

Halt.

Give me your horses, now.

Do what he says.

Don't sh**t.

Oskar.

This is a surprise.

A pleasant one, I hope.

Are you all right?

Yes.

Oh, God,
I have missed you.

I missed you too.

We did not see you
for so long.

I... I did not know...

Your mother
wanted to see you.

Oskar, I did not feel
there was any danger.

Come.

Where's the rest
of your unit?

They're in Berlin for a few days
rest and recreation.

Oh, and you did not
want to go?

No.

I'm so glad.

We would have
missed you.

Well, I have brought us
a lunch.

You look like
you could use some food.

The work you
and your men are doing

is proving quite valuable.

Could have you moved up in rank,
you know.

Good.

You don't sound
very excited, hmm?

I don't understand it.

I don't.

What?

This w*r.

Any w*r.

What is w*r but the imposition
of our will upon another?

God has made us capable.

We must fulfill our potential to him.

Is our potential
to be measured in body count,

prisoners taken,
lands conquered?

The Third Reich will be
, years of peace.

The battle will be worth it, Oskar.
You will see.

"A kingdom imposed by force
will never last".

Don't start, son.

Don't start.

I didn't start this w*r, Father.

You and your kind did.

You're bordering
on treason now.

Oh, for God's sake, Martin.
He's your son.

This is your doing, Marlene.

No, it's not her doing, Father!

My words are my own,
as are my thoughts.

Then lose them all!

Gone!

They are unbecoming
to my son.

I have business, Marlene.

I will send
a driver back...

Thank you.

For you.

How can you stay married to him?

He is a good man.

Then why can't he see it?

We all have our areas of blindness.

You are far too generous with him.

I loved him long before
he became the man he is today.

I have not heard from you
in a long time, Oskar.

Perhaps this means
there is a girl?

There is a girl.

Hmm.

Trouble?

There is.

Can you tell me about her?

Please?

She's a Jew.

A Jew?

A German cannot love a Jew?

You love her?

I do.

Can I meet her?

No.

Why not?

I sent her away...

with another man.

What man?

Her Jewish fiancé.

Oh, she is engaged.

Ja, but she doesn't love him.

Does she love you?

She loves me.

Oskar...

you know how I feel.

We have been
through this before.

I don't want you
in this w*r.

I have money in Switzerland.

You go find this girl.

I can get you both
out of here.

Father wouldn't allow it.

I can take care
of Father.

I know someone who can arrange
for passport and travel

and take you to Canada.

You can be safe there.

You can have a family,
have children.

But what of duty,

the moral obligation to Germany,
to my father?

Oh, Germany.

Germany is not
the Germany of today.

It is an aberration.

How can my father
believe in this w*r?

Don't try to win
your father's love

by corrupting your values.

I have done enough of this
for both of us.

You must find this girl
and get out of here.

Please.

It's all right.
It's all right.

It's all right.

I'm not going to hurt you.

Come on.

Come on, get up.

Have you seen a man and a woman
on this trail on horses,

good horses?

I saw a man and a woman
a few days back.

Which way
were they headed?

To the mountains.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Ja, that's good.

They should make it.

Okay, go.

Let's see. Let's see.

Oh, Willa.

That's you.

Can you open it?

No.

Here, you let me do it.

I will use my muscles, ja.

There you go, drink,
careful.

Hey!

More, more.

Mmm.

You, you drink, drink.

Drink, come on, come on.

Come on.

There's a farmhouse up ahead.

Is it safe?

The woman is helping Jews escape.

Come.

Come on, there's not enough
for everyone.

I have to clean.
I have to clean.

You okay?

Willa, you come.

You come with me.

You come with me.

We'll be back.

Where are you going, Hans?

Oh.

Ah, where have you been?

Look what Hans
has brought for us.

Come, Poland's finest are here
to entertain us.

Olga, this is our Oskar.

Oskar, this is Olga.

Oskar is a poet.

Go, inspire him
to write poetry.

Go, you go.

Go, come on.

Do you really write poetry?

I try.

Hmm.

I write poetry.

Or at least I try.

My mother is Russian.

In Russia,
a poet is everything.

I can see it
in your eyes.

Hmm?

You're in love.

w*r is-
is bad time to be in love.

Well, I may not be her,
but I can be me.

That might be enough
to get us both through the night.

Perhaps.

No, no.

Please.

No.

No.

You can pretend I'm her
when you make love with me.

I won't mind.

But when pretending is over...

Shut up.

Shut up.

You're hurting me.

Shut up.

Shut up.

Stop it!

b*tch.

Filthy-

Hey!

Get off me.

Get off me.

Don't you ever,
ever touch me.

Don't ever touch me.

Look at her.

Look at her!

You are a German officer.

Have you no pride, no shame?

To the victor goes the spoil,
the victor.

To the victor go the spoils?

You believe all of it,

the propaganda, the lies,

all of it.

You're a disappointment
to your father.

You're not even fit
to be in the German army.

Good!

Let go of me.

Let go of me!

It's okay.

Don't worry.

You poor thing.

What is wrong with me?

You're pregnant.

Are you sure?

I've been a midwife
for years.

I know pregnant,
and you are pregnant.

Get used to throwing up,
young lady.

Congratulations,
you're going to be a father.

Are you two married?

No.

I am hiding people
in the barn.

One is a rabbi.

He can marry you.

Ruth, can you come here, please?

Oh, I must go.

Who's the father?

Oskar.

I saw-I saw the way
he looked at you.

Bernard, I'm sorry.

I am sorry.

Do you love me?

I care for you.

I do.

I love you.

I always have.

I know.

You love him,
don't you?

I love Oskar.

Do you want the baby?

Yes.

I want to have the baby, and-

and I understand
if you want to leave me.

I do.

Will you marry me?

What about the baby?

I will be the father.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's logical
for our intelligence unit

to move into Russia
before the military.

Why do you say that?

Well, because we can deal
with the Russian policies better.

Less casualties
for the army.

Okay, so when
do we move?

Orders will be coming soon, ja?

Ja?

You're willing to marry her

even though the child
is not yours?

Is this wrong?

Am I doing wrong?

To care for a child?

How could it be wrong
to care for a child?

And to care for a child
that is not even yours

would only be an act
of great generosity.

The father of the child,
he's a German...

a German soldier.

Rachel was r*ped?

No.

He saved her.

He-he saved both of us.

You know this man?

Yes.

It's a very unusual situation.

Yes.

You say Rachel's father
was a rabbi?

He was.

He and my father were together
planning our wedding

when the Germans came.

Wish he were here.

Yes.

It's important for me
to understand,

to know if what I am doing is right.

I know I love her enough
to accept her and the child.

But is it right?

You're a good man, Bernard.

You're a very good man.

God is with you
in what you do in this regard.

Who would win what?

The boxing,
Hans or Oskar?

Hans would k*ll him.

Oh, you think so?

Ja, he's crazy.
He's an animal.

- Hans.
- What?

Kommen Sie hier...

What do you want,
huh?

Oh, Hans.

Hans, you're going to be
boxing today.

Boxing who?

Boxing Oskar today.

- Oskar?
- Ja.

He's a coward.

He's a coward?

Well, what has he found, you know.
What has he reported?

Nothing.

Does he hide in the woods all day,

like some scared little girl,
you know?

So, you fight him.

Ja, you shouldn't be
very scared then.

You've reported many things.

Well, let's make a bet.

Ja.

marks says I take him.

- marks?
- Ja.

marks says
he takes you.

- Oh, ?
- Ja.

Ja, rich boy?

Okay, you loan me .

I fight him.
I beat him.

I take your money.

You must get him to fight first,
though, Hans.

Ja,that should be
fun, huh?

Mm-hmm.

Come, Oskar!
Boxing!

You and I in the barn.

No, thank you.

Oh, come on, Oskar.

You're not afraid, are you?

You know, I ran into that little
cleaning girl of yours again.

Ja, we got to know each other
much better this time,

and she was terrific, Oskar.

I can see why you like her.

She is the nastiest
little animal, isn't she?

Give it to him, Oskar!

Stay down, Oskar.

My marks, gentlemen.

Oh, you want some more?

Oskar, come on.

Did I tell you
she begged for more?

Come on.

That's it.

You're going
to get hurt.

Is that what you want?

You want to get hurt?

You'll have to k*ll me.

If that's what you want.

Yes, Oskar.

Go for the body.

Punch him!

Come on, Oskar.

Come on!

Ja, that's it, Oskar.

Come on.

Yes, Oskar.

Come on, Oskar,
good man.

It's not over.

Easy now.

Oskar, enough!

Enough!

Hans.

Hans?

Hans?

Hans, stand up.

Hans?

He's dead.

Bernard has told me
of your situation.

Oh.

It is not my position to judge

what you did or why.

You will do that.

But do you think
you could promise me one thing?

Yes, what is that?

You think you could raise your child
to be a proper Jew?

Would you do that?

Yes.

Yes, I will.

Good.

It is my privilege in this time of w*r
and violence,

this time devoid of love,

to pronounce you
husband and wife.

My words and this union
before our God

is your certificate of marriage.

Mazel tov.

What is love, Rachel?

It's trust, friendship,
kindness, comfort.

I know you will grow to love me
as I love you.

I know that.

In time...

in time, it will just be
you and I and the baby.

In the bin, in the bin.

- You all right?
- Yes.

I k*lled him.

God forgive me.
I... I k*lled a man.

It's all right.

It's all right.

It's all right.

You had to do it.

We have to survive.

Bernard, you have a baby.

Halt!

Halt!

Oskar, you have changed.

w*r changes everybody.

I did not think
it would change you.

Thank you.

Do you still love her?

She's probably already dead.

You don't know that.

I had the opportunity
to go with her, to be with her.

You did what you had to do
to save her life.

I did what I did

because I was afraid.

And now I suffer
a coward's pain.

You are no coward.

I was afraid
of disappointing Father.

I was stupid and weak.

Do not do this to yourself.

Youth is not the best
of vantage points.

Little consolation.

You succumb to this,

you will fall prey to all of the darkness
that surrounds us.

I feel so useless.

I cannot stand
to see you this way.

I cannot.

Oskar, you have been my light.

I will not let you give up.

I will not let you give up
for the both of us.

Our orders arrived.

"You will travel through the woods
towards Russia.

"There are still small pockets
of resistance in rural Poland.

"Eliminate any as you can
as you travel.

"You will face similar problems

"as you move
into Russian territory.

"The Russian partisans
are very formidable,

"well trained, well armed,
and experienced.

"They have k*lled a number of our soldiers
patrolling the border.

"We need to determine their strength
along the Polish border

"before we move into Russia.

You will report back
to Camp Butow".

The children are now being shipped

to a safe area by train.

They are waiting for you.

Please cooperate with-

Apples are
lying all over the place.

There's no one left
to pick them.

We need to go
to a village.

They are burning Jews,

rounding them up
from villages.

We have to stay
in the woods.

It's our only chance.

What about the baby?

We can't have a baby
in the woods.

A baby needs shelter.

We can't make it through
another winter, Bernard.

We'll die.

Our baby will die.

Bernard, are you listening to me?

Quiet.

Oh, not yet.

Is the baby coming?

I don't know.

Who was it?

Germans.

German soldiers.

We'll get through this,
Bernard.

I promise you, we will.

Ow.

I will do whatever
I have to.

Please hold me.

We will not die.

We will make it, Bernard.
I promise you.

"I hope this letter
finds you and finds you well,

"and I hope
that you have been successful

"in searching for your love.

"Your father is traveling
to Camp Butow.

"I hope the two of you
are able to meet

"and share a moment or two
with your differences put aside.

"He is much concerned these days.

"The w*r is proving,
as w*r always does,

"to be much more difficult
than anticipated.

"I wonder if, in your lifetime,

"you will see mankind
grow beyond the concept of w*r.

"Perhaps your writings
will one day be able to inspire

"and encourage people to do such.

"I pray for you.

Love, Mother".

Push, push, that's a good girl.

That's a good girl.

Ah, the baby's coming.

Oh, push, good, good.

She must have shelter
and food for the baby.

There's a camp.

The-the Germans
are building it at Butow.

They need workers.

They pay with food
and shelter.

You must go there
with the baby at once.

Germans down by the river.

Fredrick!

Fredrick!

Fredrick!

Fredrick!

Fredrick!

Fredrick!

When is Germany moving into Russia?

They're not.

Russia and Germany are allies!

Butow sits right on the border.

More soldiers move to it
every day.

The AK have already informed me
of German troop movements

through Poland
toward Russian front.

Stalin and Hitler are friends.

Oh, God.

Stalin is fool.

Hitler will attack Russia.

Germans have already burned
Russian border villages

and all people in them.

The doctor's family
was taken by you Germans.

Do you want to know what
they did to the doctor's family?

They tortured them...

To death.

I have told you
everything I know, everything.

I know.

Will you let me go, please?

Every day of my life is not mine

but belongs to my m*rder*d families.

How could I let you go?

Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!

Shh.

Yes.

Welcome!

Welcome, everyone.

Welcome to Camp Butow Cabaret,

where life
is always a celebration,

because we have,
in a live performance for you, you, you,

and especially-
nice to see you, stranger-

and especially you,

we have Sally.

We have Betty.

We have Marcy.

We have Heidi.
We have Stephanie.

We have Helga.

And these girls
are all virgins.

And we have the ever
vivacious, salacious,

Mademoiselle Werzog!

If we move into Russia here,

we will be vulnerable
to attack from behind

by the Russian partisans.

We intend to wipe them out.

How?

We'll infiltrate their territory,

locate their major camps,

and then take them out from the air.

Have you heard
from Oskar?

With any luck,
they should be in camp tomorrow.

Good.
I look forward to seeing him.

You look beautiful.

I have a date
with Colonel Hass.

He likes to keep me the night,

so see you tomorrow?

All right.

How do you do it?

We are doing
what we have to do.

¶ ¶

¶ Take a look at me, boys ¶

¶ Sure know how to please ¶

¶ I know I like to look the best ¶

¶ before I start to tease ¶

¶ Bitte, let me be ¶

¶ your little girl ¶

¶ Oh, take a look at me, boys ¶

That girl,
she's quite appealing.

She has...

A certain charm?

Ja.

Who is she?

She lives in camp.

She offers her services
to generals and colonels.

Typical.

No, she's not
like the others.

She has a child
and some sort of boyfriend,

a husband or something.

He's a worker.

He puts up with it?

It's a question of survival.

Good show.

Good voice,
good figure.

¶ Let's go down ¶

¶ I love to be the tease ¶

¶ begging please, please ¶

¶ So don't forget to tip me ¶

¶ put something in my glass ¶

¶ It's worth the extra money ¶

¶ to see me shake my... ¶

Whoo!

¶ So, babies, you'll be paying ¶

¶ for each und every kiss ¶

Ja, ja.

This is our esteemed
General Koenig,

a very important man.

And this is
our Christina.

Christina, delighted.

You are very talented.

I would like to invite you
to my tent for drinks tonight.

Tonight?

Perhaps you could invite her
for tomorrow night?

She has a previous
engagement tonight.

Perhaps you can arrange
to cancel that engagement, ja?

Yes, I think I could manage that.

I look forward to getting
to know you better, Christina.

Take off your dress.

You have a baby?

Yes.

Hmm.

Whose baby?

Take it, take it.

Take off your dress.

Then undo my pants.

Gentlemen, welcome to Camp Butow.

Welcome.

It was a long journey.

We thought the Russian partisans
had k*lled you.

They k*lled Fredrick.

Yes, I know.

I was very sorry
to hear that.

You two look like
you could use some good food.

Yes, sir.

I think we'll save our
intelligence briefing for the morning.

Yes, sir.

For tonight,
you two try to relax.

There's a good cabaret
in the camp.

I've arranged a table for you.

Enjoy.

Thank you, sir.

What's wrong
with your baby?

He's hungry.

The latrine behind
the cabaret is overflowing.

It needs to be dumped.

What, now?

Ja, now, ja.

I'll watch your baby.

All right.

- A game?
- Sure.

Put your money down.

¶ ¶

¶ ¶

I can't concentrate
with that Jew brat screaming.

Shut up, shut up, shut up.

Leave the baby alone.

Play the game.

It is our pleasure,
Camp Butow, to introduce to you

the one and the only Christina.

¶ ¶

¶ ¶

I thought I was never
going to see you again.

I was sure
you were dead.

We have a son.

You and Bernard?

You and I.

You have a son,
a beautiful, healthy son.

I should have come with you
when I had the chance.

We could have been together.

We could have-

Shh.

We still can.

We can get away from here tonight.

Get away from this place, please.

I have married Bernard.

Do you love him?

Look at me.

Rachel...

do you love Bernard?

I love you.

Then you must
come with me.

Don't make my mistake.

We can have a life.

We can raise a family.

We can be safe.

Wait for me.

I will be back.

Checkmate.

Thank you.

Another game?

Another wager?

Shut up.

Shut up!

Shut up.

Shut up.

Shut up.

Now, you shut up.

It... it wasn't me.

He k*lled our baby!

Please, we have to leave.

Rachel, Rachel.

We have to leave now.

Come on.

Did you see that soldier?

He grabbed my a*s
with both hands.

Her baby was k*lled.

Baby?

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Give it to me.

Don't sh**t.

All right, move it!

Move it!

Go!

Go!

Come on!

You've just returned from
the Polish-Russian border, ja?

Yes, sir.

Are you all right,
Oskar?

Yes, sir.

You engaged
the Russian partisans?

Yes, sir,
small groups of them.

And you lost a man?

Ja, Fredrick Strauss.
He was a good officer.

My condolences.

You both
speak Russian, ja?

Yes, sir.

Very good.

Ideal candidates,
General.

The Russian partisans have been
destroying bridges, roads,

railways,
their own infrastructure.

We need to locate
their major units

and take them out
from the air.

Any remaining partisans
will be completely vulnerable.

I agree, sir.

You will enter
Russian partisan territory.

You will capture them
or follow them,

locate their camps,

and report back here
as quickly as possible.

This mission
is very dangerous.

I will take it.

So will I.

Don't do this
because I am.

No, I am doing it
because it has to be done.

I think you should think
about this, Oskar.

I'm not sure I want...

Want me to be
a part of this w*r?

It's a little late for that.

I could order you not to go.

You could, but you won't.

I will take this mission.

I am the most qualified.

You have a brave son, General.

He will no doubt make you proud.

Have you seen him?

He's well?

He's all right?

Something is wrong?

What is wrong?

Has something
happened to him?

What?

What has happened to our son?

What has happened to him?

I let him go.

You're a Jew, yes?

No.

Then why were
Germans chasing you?

I told you.

Tell me again.

I k*lled a guard.

I've already
interrogated the girl.

She told me
she k*lled guard.

Why?

Why did she do it?

The German k*lled our baby.

Your story
arouses compassion.

But there is something
not quite right.

I can smell it.

Maybe you're spy?

Maybe you're Jew?

I'm neither.

I don't believe you.

But we will see.

Untie him.

Don't move.

Don't move.

Peter!

Peter.

Peter!

You left him there alive?

We must save him
or k*ll him.

Sasha will not talk.

Everyone talks sooner or later.

It's him or the Germans.

Okay, I get men ready.

Bring bag...

and the Poles.

Let them k*ll Germans.

It's good test.

I hate this w*r.

I hate what it
makes you become.

If you yell, I will k*ll you.

What is your name?

Sasha.

One day this w*r will end, Sasha.

Everyone will go back to normal.

Our enemies will become
our trading partners.

At least the dead will not know
how futile it was.

You and wife move in
and k*ll German.

And if you do not do it,
we'll k*ll you both.

You won't
have to do that.

I promise you.

Bernard, no.

I'll handle it.

Come.

"When love beckons, follow...

"Though its ways
are hard and steep.

"And when its wings enfold you, yield,

though the sword hidden among its pinions
wounds your heart".

Listen to me.

When I say run,
you must run to him.

Run to who?

Oskar.

I am sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's all right.

No, it's not.

He is coward.

I love you, Rachel.

I've always loved you.

I want you to be happy.

What are they doing?

I want you to live.

Run!

Run, Rachel!

Run!

You...

You take care of her.

I will.

I know.

I know.
