[Tristan] Hey...

Stay with me. Stay with me.

Shit.

Fuck.

Come on! Come on, come on!

[tires squealing]

[dramatic music playing]

Fuck.

[Tristan panting]

Hang on. Hang on. You can do it.

You'll make it.

You'll make it, you'll make it!

Stay with me.

Stay with me. Stay with me. Hey!

Stay with me.

[distorted] Hey, we're almost there! We're almost there, okay?

Hang on.

[echoing] Hang on, hang on.

[sentimental music playing]

[Lea's mother] Lea.

Mom.

[Lea's father] Hey.

[Tristan] You know that feeling?

Like you're seeing things through a thick sheet of glass?

-[Lea's mother] Please be honest with us. -[doctor] The operation went well.

Your daughter was very lucky.

She lost a lot of blood, but the bullet didn't damage any nerves or organs.

[Lea's mother] Will she have a full recovery?

[Lea's mother] Thank you. I'll call you back later, okay? Bye.

-Hey. -Hey.

How is she?

Better. She's just waking up.

[Lea's mother] I just got off the phone with a lawyer.

She's accused of trespassing and property damage,

and causing a traffic hazard.

The police officer who shot her is supposedly being suspended.

We'll talk about this later.

The good thing is she won't be going to jail.

[Lea's father] Okay.

Okay.

[distorted] That's good.

[distorted] That's good.

[suspenseful music playing]

POLICE

[sighs]

[phone rings]

Yeah?

[Serner's wife] Are they kicking you off the force?

What? No. No. Who told you that?

[Serner's wife] It's true.

Why did you call?

[Serner's wife] Just sign the papers, Paul.

I want to get this over with.

Please, I think if...

Can we just talk about this again?

-If I leave now, then I can be there by-- -I never want to see you again. It's over.

How is the boy?

Can I speak to him, please?

He's at school.

Just sign the divorce papers, okay?

And get your life together.

OUR COUNTRY - OUR VALUES!

[yells]

[shouts] What?

[bell rings]

[chattering]

Hey! Why are the police here?

What do you think? Looking for us!

Hey, wait. Hey. What's wrong?

Man, it's just better if they don't see us together.

[Tristan] Okay. Then let's meet at my place tonight.

For what?

-[Tristan] To talk about what we do next. -You haven't had enough of this?

What the fuck?

-What the hell is your problem? -[Tristan] You can't leave me hanging.

The hotel, that whole plan we made, was all for you,

for your family.

But now it's my turn. You need to help me out.

But Lea almost lost her life.

I know.

I know. I was there, man.

We'll be more careful next time, and we'll be better prepared.

Dude, I promise you.

[in Arabic] I'm sorry, bro.

[in English] For me, there won't be a "next time," man.

[doctor] Try to lift the left one.

-Hey, come in. -[doctor] So...

-You're almost back on your feet already. -Yeah, I am feeling better.

It only hurts when I laugh.

Soon, you'll be going home,

and in a month or two, you'll be back on the tennis court.

[laughs] No bullets flying around there, I hope.

[laughs]

[melancholic music playing]

[sighs]

[gasps]

Sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you.

[sentimental music playing]

You look like you're going to pass out.

I hate hospitals.

[Lea] Hi.

I was so scared about you.

-I'm sorry. I didn't want that-- -The Wave was our idea.

We all knew what we were getting ourselves into.

It's over now anyway.

It is?

Yeah.

I missed you so much.

I did, too.

[man] Tristan!

[suspenseful music playing]

[man] Tristan!

[Tristan breathing heavily]

[man] Stay with me.

[young Tristan] Mom!

[young Tristan] Don't... Let me go! No, Mom!

[doctor in French] Out of the way.

-[young Tristan in English] No, no! -[doctor in French] This is an emergency!

[doctor 2 in English] She's in a critical state! Move!

Get out of the way.

-[dad in English] You can't go in. -[doctor in French] She's losing blood.

-[Tristan's dad in English] The doctors-- -[young Tristan] Mom, stay here.

Mom!

[nurse] Young man?

Is everything okay, young man?

[doorbell rings]

Thanks.

What about Rahim?

He's out.

[Hagen] What?

The Wave got too hot.

He's out.

-He's a coward. I mean, fucking-- -Hey.

What if he's right?

What is all this bullshit?

Hey, I thought we were here to come up with our next plan.

It's too risky.

I can't ask you guys to do this.

[Zazie] You can't just give up on us now.

I won't let you.

I won't let you.

I won't let you, man!

I can decide this for myself, Tristan.

Okay.

What? "Okay"?

Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Zazie] Hacke & Abt?

[Hagen] The weapons factory.

The internship.

Into the lion's den.

[Hagen] All that's missing are watchtowers and snipers.

Let's go.

[buzzer sounds]

[doorman] Can I help you?

Hello, we're the school interns.

[Hagen] Morning.

Show me some identification, please.

The main building is in the front.

It's building 1A. Go straight there.

[over speaker] Mr. Armbruster will be there to welcome you both.

Film and audio are not to be recorded at all.

Understand?

[over speaker] Yes, sir.

Absolutely.

[door opens]

-Good morning. I'm Mr. Armbruster. -Hagen Lemmart.

-Zazie Elsner. -My pleasure. Please, follow me.

It's great that you chose Hacke & Abt

for your internships.

At our Meppersfeld site,

we manufacture our entire range of rifles and handguns

for the civilian market, for sports and hunting,

as well as for security agencies and military use.

Hacke & Abt has been a market leader

for large-caliber military equipment for years.

We export to over 60 countries.

Now, I'll walk you through our production unit.

This production building exclusively manufactures automatic weapons.

Ordinary citizens can't get their hands on these.

Unfortunately, I can't show you anything too exciting.

Please don't touch that.

The basement has some areas even I don't have access to.

[Hagen] Who does have access?

[Armbruster] Just upper management and Research and Development.

[Hagen] Ah.

Here comes our boss.

[woman chattering]

-Good morning, Ms. Theweleit. -Morning.

I say, let's wait. That could be a problem.

Miss Elsner, are you coming?

[suspenseful music playing]

It's my ass if I get caught helping you this time.

Yeah, I know.

I owe you one.

Want a smoke?

No, I'm good. On the backseat.

[Serner] Alright.

MEPPERSFELD JUVENILE PRISON

[police officer] This time, you owe me more than a beer after work.

[sighs] Okay.

Welcome back home.

How long are you giving me the silent treatment?

You think I don't know what I did to you both?

-Lea, you're destroying your future. -Mom, this is about more than my future.

I can't listen to this anymore.

Look, I apologized, but I can't change now, Dad.

[ringing tone]

Hey, have you guys been online lately?

There's a Wave in Berlin,

in Munich, Hamburg, Cologne, Stuttgart, and every large city.

Really?

Cool.

Tristan, we inspired a real movement.

It's begun to spread.

Watch the videos.

Read the comments.

The Wave lives on,

even without us.

Where are you right now?

At home.

[Lea] Me too.

You could come here and sneak in.

Your dad would murder me.

Get some rest.

I'll come see you tomorrow, okay?

See you.

[suspenseful music playing]

Strip. You know the drill.

Okay. That's enough.

You got the money?

[driver laughs]

[truck horn blares]

Hey!

[shouts] Hey!

I gave you both the cash.

Fuck you!

Fuck!

[boy] Here. Pass it to me.

Focus!

[Paula] Why are you here?

Paula! Let it go.

-Lea. -[Lea] Hey.

[girl] I'm open.

How are you?

I'm doing okay.

It doesn't hurt so bad.

How have you both been?

I'm on probation.

She won't let me be in the Wave anymore.

Our Wave doesn't exist, Rahim.

Has Tristan said anything else?

All I know is that Hagen and Zazie still meet up with him.

That's it.

Take care.

Hi. I'm Lea. I'm friends with Hagen at school.

You must... You must be the girl who was...

Yeah, the paper didn't say a name.

Is Hagen here?

I just need to talk to him for a minute.

Yeah, he should be home soon. Want to come inside?

[Hagen's father] Was Hagen involved in it?

[Lea] No.

Even if he was, you wouldn't say anything, right?

Do you know what internship Hagen is doing?

He hasn't told me what it is.

[Hagen's father chuckles]

I guess that could be since he feels a bit too ashamed.

-The power plant, is it? -[Hagen's father] No, worse.

At Hacke & Abt.

Hacke & Abt?

[Hagen's father] The weapons factory, yeah.

[suspenseful music playing]

[doorbell ringing]

Tristan, come out!

Come out!

The weapons factory? I mean, are you nuts?

So, you're all just gonna continue?

Yeah, naturally.

[Tristan] If we give up now, then they win.

Come on. They shot you!

It would all have been for nothing.

And tell me, what if something goes wrong? You all have a death wish?

No, we wanna change things! I thought that's what you wanted.

Yeah, I meant as a group.

Peacefully, without violence.

Those bastards profit from the murder of innocents.

They gamble with lives! They can't be stopped with peace!

Well, how are they gonna stop?

We're gonna blow up the whole fucking thing.

[Hagen] It's the only way.

That's totally crazy.

And what if people lose their lives because of you?

You're such a drama queen.

Shut up, Zazie. Come on, man. You should try thinking for yourself.

Goddammit! At least I have the guts to do something.

-Hey! -[Hagen] Shh.

We're doing it on a Sunday morning. It's not open then.

It's like there's nobody home.

No one gets hurt and then the world is a little better off.

That's the reason we created the Wave, right?

This big plan - how long have you had it?

How could I be such an idiot?

That's why you transferred to Meppersfeld this year, isn't it?

And then you found four suckers who would blindly follow.

-[Hagen] That's not true. -We wanted to fight.

Don't you see that we're all just being used?

We wanted to do it together and Tristan showed us how.

So, then, what is your goddamn problem, princess?

-That the Wave isn't real. -That's not true.

What about us, Tristan?

Were you and I part of your plan?

You're the only thing that went wrong.

-You lied to me. -Because I didn't want to lose you.

All because your shitty plan is more important than anything else.

Because my mother is the reason.

[Zazie] What?

[Lea] Do you think your mother really would have wanted this?

For her son to become a terrorist, Tristan?

Those monsters killed her...

with weapons from that factory.

I murdered my mother.

But this isn't the answer. You know that.

All I want is justice.

If you don't want to be with me,

then decide if you're going to be against me.

[Tristan breathes heavily]

I'm not going to stop you.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Hagen] Hey.

We're still with you.

[Tristan] I'll tell you everything.

You deserve the truth.

Are you ready?

[Tristan] Time and time again,

Hacke & Abt has violated laws and regulations.

They sold weapons to dictators and terrorists

which were then used to hurt and kill innocent people.

The media covered it.

State prosecutors investigated it. Politicians knew about it.

And yet, nothing happened, because the dividend is sacred.

As long as share prices keep going up,

the business leaders in our country are untouchable.

But that's all coming to an end today.

Today, we will pass judgment on Hacke & Abt.

The time has come to stop these murderers.

[Zazie] When do we upload it?

After.

[dramatic music playing]

[Zazie's grandpa coughing]

[Zazie] Are you okay?

Yeah. I can't sleep.

I'm going out to distribute flyers.

Sit down with me, okay?

[sentimental music playing]

-One day, when I'm not around anymore-- -Don't say that.

You'll live to be 100.

For 50 years, I worked my ass off.

And every day, from nine to five, I'd dream of something better for us.

It never got better.

I just want to say this:

this life is short.

Please don't waste it.

-[Hagen] Hey. -Hey.

[Tristan] Hey.

-[Tristan] Is everything okay? -Yeah.

Why did you bring that?

If things go wrong...

Nothing will go wrong. Give it to me.

Come on, Zazie.

[Tristan] Give it to me.

-Hey, wait a minute. -[Tristan] Put it away.

[engine starting]

[dramatic music playing]

Shit.

[sighs]

LOGOS? NO, THANKS

FOR LEA! SHOUT THE TRUTH FROM THE ROOFTOPS.

-[Lea's mother] Andreas! -[Lea's father] Yeah, in the living room.

Can I finalize the Global Peters project budget?

[Lea's father] No.

[sensor beeping]

[guard] Hey, you!

I'm afraid you can't stop here. You're blocking the entrance.

I would be happy to move it, but... I think something is broken.

Why don't you let me look under the hood?

[Zazie] I'm sorry. I don't know how.

[guard] Leave it.

Hey, Blaszewski and Okoja, could you come help me, please?

Oh, yeah.

Your radiator hose has a tear.

Shit.

What do I do now?

Okay, start up the motor.

[engine starts]

Oh, thank you, guys.

-[Okoja] No problem. -[guard] Glad to help.

May I offer you a little something to say thanks?

I made it this morning.

-It tastes best when it's fresh. -Yeah, you're right.

-Thank you. -Thanks.

[engine starting]

Come on.

Come on.

Yeah.

[Zazie] What's wrong?

[Tristan] Nothing.

[Hagen] Be careful.

[Zazie] Let's go.

-[Tristan] Hold the fort. -Will do. Be careful.

[chattering]

[girl] Take a pic!

[Lea] Rahim!

Thank you.

-[Zazie] Tristan. -[Tristan] What?

I have to go to the bathroom.

[Tristan] You'll find me?

-[Zazie] Yeah, okay. -[Tristan] Alright, see you in a few.

[Hagen] Oh, man.

Shit.

[gun cocks]

[Serner] Hands up!

Up!

[Serner] I thought as much.

You'd better give me the card.

[Hagen yells in pain]

Give me the card now.

[Hagen groans]

[entry system beeps]

[door opens]

[Serner] Hands up!

[Zazie] Tristan!

Tristan!

Can anyone hear me?

[grunting]

[yells]

Tristan!

[beeping]

[cell phone vibrating]

[Tristan] Fuck.

Listen, I'm sorry, but it's already too late to stop us.

[Lea] Do you remember what you wrote to me in that book?

I'm on my way to you and I'm not alone.

What?

[Lea] Don't do it, Tristan.

[beeping]

[Lea] You can leave your mark in some other way.

Lea...

Where exactly are you?

"Shout the truth from the rooftops."

Shit!

Shit. Fuck!

[Tristan grunting]

[Zazie breathing heavily]

[grunting]

[beeping continues]

[Serner] Hello, Tristan.

What's up? Your little revolution ends now, okay?

Come on.

What was the plan?

Steal some guns and play a little coup d'état with your friends?

The only thing I want here is justice.

[grunting]

I'll give you justice, you little asshole.

You get ten years in jail, and I get my job back.

[groans]

[Zazie screams]

In there. Go right.

Let's go.

Move it.

Hey... [grunts]

[Zazie yells]

Well, you've got some fighting spirit, huh?

[Tristan] Put the gun on the floor.

Do it.

[Zazie groaning and yelling]

[Serner groaning]

[Serner groans]

He already saw us. He knows our names.

-[screams] He knows who we are! -Hey, hey, please.

Shut your fucking mouth or else I'll blow your head off!

Take it easy.

-Hey. -[Tristan] Zazie, take it easy.

Give me the gun.

I'm not going to let this goddamn asshole,

this fucker, put you behind bars again.

[Tristan] Please, put the gun down, okay?

[sobs] You... You can't take it away from me now.

What are you doing?

You made me free.

[Tristan] Zazie...

That's different.

You showed me how to fuck with these assholes.

[Tristan] Yeah.

You can't just go and fuck with my life...

and then leave me on my own.

The Wave is everything to me.

You are everything to me.

[gunshot]

[Serner grunting]

[Zazie and Serner grunting]

-Enough of this shit! -[Zazie groans]

Move it, now. Come on.

It's not over yet.

Shut it!

Let's go!

Everyone, get back!

Get back!

Do you intend to gun everybody down, Detective?

-[student] Hey, you asshole! -[student 2] Go home!

-[student 3] Bastard cop! -[student 4] Beat it!

[student 5] Yeah, man. Go home!

-[student 6] Goodbye! -[student 7] Fuck off!

[sentimental music playing]

[Lea] You've lost.

Go home.

[Hagen] Asshole.

-[student] See you! -[student 2] Asshole!

-[Hagen] Hey. Are you okay? -[student 3] Bastard cop!

[cheering]

And now?

Do you trust me?

Do I have a choice?

[Lea] Uh-uh.

You must be ready before police and the media get here.

Everyone, get into position.

[students whooping]

[Lea] We'll stay here as long as we can.

[chattering]

[Lea] We'll wait until the press arrives.

Are you alright? Coming?

You're running after her, just like everyone else.

-Zazie, no. Come on. I'm here for you. -You're lying.

You don't get it, do you, Hagen?

You and I have always been some kind of second choice.

Whatever is between us...

I'm okay with all of it.

I promised you that.

[suspenseful music playing]

[sirens wailing]

[Lea] Ready? Now!

MURDERERS

[Lea] Stick to the plan. Don't start improvising.

We won't back down an inch until everyone understands what's goes on here.

We will not be silent any longer.

[police officer] Wait, please. Let us do our jobs.

[Lea] If we keep things peaceful, they can't do anything to us.

[police officer 2] ...our job.

[reporter] You're obstructing our right to cover this!

[Lea] Now is the time to leave our mark.

Are you ready?

[all] Yeah!

[Lea] One...

two...

three!

[frenzied screaming]

[dramatic music playing]

[camera shutters clicking]

German arms manufacturers sell, every year,

missiles and tanks and fire arms worth over 10 million euros.

Most of that goes to countries without democratically elected governments.

But at Hacke & Abt, it's not just that.

To keep making their profits, they...

[Marvin] Boss!

...illegally to compensate...

You should see this!

[Lea over TV] ...and we accept it as if we were powerless.

But that isn't true.

There's a lot of us...

It's time we really cleaned out this town.

And the noise we make will only get louder and louder and louder,

until all of you out there finally hear us.

[cheering and applause]

She's brave, that girl.

Yeah.

They all love her.

[applause]

[all chant] We are many! We can fight! We are proud!

We are many! We are strong! You are killers! You are wrong!

We are many! We are loud! We can fight! We are proud!

We are many! We are strong! You are killers! You are wrong!

We are many! We are loud! We can fight! We are proud!

We are many! We are strong! You are killers! You are wrong!

["Take it All" by Ruelle plays]

[reporter] After a peaceful, nine-hour occupation,

it seems the last few demonstrators are coming down

and are all being arrested without resistance.

While the Minister of the Interior has strongly criticized the protest,

hundreds of thousands of people on social networks are voicing support

for the group centered around young activist Lea Herst.

[Tristan] Lea.

Thank you.
