All language subtitles for Le franciscain de Bourges (1968) EN

Ah shit!.

Alarm.

May I help you sir?

The police told me to see the Gestapo.

My brother was arrested 5 days ago.

It's certainly a mistake.

So I would like to see your supervisor.

The name is...?
Toledano.

Toledano.

You are the brother
of the denounced Toledano?

Yes.
Then you are Marc Toledano?

Yes. I would like to see...

Here's the other bastard!
we've got him too.

Put him in the basement,

I'll get his brother

Take us to #25

Wait for me here...

Wake up #25

#25 is in no condition....

Tough, bring him here

immediately.

It's madness.

Never mind, move!

Don't overdo it.

Double the dose,

We need him!

Are you a medic or not?

Double the dose!

What are you doing to me?

Bastard.

Come.

Interrogation.

Where were you on September 1?

I...I don't remember.

Think...

the first of September.

No...I don't know.

We know.

Then why ask me?

Don't use that tone!

I'll teach you to respect!

Let's go on.

On September 1 you
were at the beach having a picnic.

Your brother Yves was there,

And DeLescure, your cousin.

He is your boss.
He gets orders from London.

2 girls were there too.
A beautiful day.

You remember, now?

The spy DeLescure gave
you your orders.

Your brother to Camp d'Aord,
You, to Châteauroux.

What did you do at Châteauroux?

Nothing.
I have never been there.

You unloaded an English plane
full of weapons.

That's not true. I don't know.

"I don't know." If you keep that up
you won't go much further.

The picnic, a lie?

That's true, but...

And your cousin,

True or false?

True.
Alright, the rest also.

Châteauroux, Vierzon,
all as written.

No.

Confess, then.
We like confessions.

You won't get any.

Get the dog out!

Now it's my turn.

- We are too nice.
Bastards like you will hang.

Like your brother.

You have hanged him?

Not exactly.

Hey! Paoli.
Can I borrow the car?

Not right now.
I have a job for you.

A Frenchman.
You will get along.

He pulls out fingernails.

I don't have time,
I have to see a Jew.

I must have the car.

Don't bring it back late.

That depends on the Jew.
Merci.

You are lucky.

You've come to see your brother?
Oui.

You will see him.

Go get him!

You love him.

Of course.

And you believe him,

Of course.

Oui. Why?

Sit down.

Here they are,
the two little brothers.

Yves, it's me.

It's me!

- He knows.

He's the one who gave you up.
Liar!

Are you going to be polite?

All that,
He's the one who told me about it.

It's not true.
"Not true"?

Can you read?

Is that not his signature?

That's it, look at it,
and agree to it.

You say you
have done nothing

And you have come
to see your brother?

Oui.

- You bastard,

You say your brother
was a leader of the Resistance.

Châteauroux, Vierzon
and all the others.

What?

You're going to answer, yes?

I have your statement.

You said it.

You've nearly killed him.

I do the talking!

Shit! Shit!

Damn you all!

I have done nothing.

We'll make them agree

Call the boys

I have a very simple job.

I have one's confession.
I want the other's too.

Do you know the Berlin top?

He knows it.

Very effective.

Ask him how it turns around.

Anyway, you'll see.

Put him on the top!

I will make you tell where
you were on September first.

You again?

Get out.

Filthy Kraut!

Out! Out!

I don't want to see you

Filthy Kraut.

Go away. Get out!

...

Leave me alone

Let me die

Go away
for God's sake

I have come for God's sake

To care for you

Look at me

I am a German soldier

But I am also
a Franciscan Brother.

I am here
to serve all my brothers.

You can do nothing for me.

Yes.

I can take care of you a bit.

I am taking you
to the infirmary.

I can't move.

Alfred will help you.

Who is Alfred?

That's me.

Careful. Alfred must
not get caught.

Oh yes?
They beat you again?

It's your fault.
Hurry up!

It's to fool them.

They are very stupid,
But Alfred is not stupid.

Go easy.

Turn over. Turn.

Easy...

Who are you?

Poor little Saint Francis

"Saint Francis"?
Yes. A monk

All in brown, with a sash
around my middle.

At the monastery
Alfred worked in the kitchen.

You know?

Alfred prays
for all those who suffer,

for all his brothers,

Christian or not.

I am protestant.

"Protestant"?

There are many in Germany.

But you know...
They are no better.

Again, my child

Oui.

All done. All done

If a man does not love his brothers

And he says "I love God",

That man is a liar.

Thank you.

No, don't thank me.

It's you unfortunates
who are good for Alfred.

What would Alfred do without you?

Cooking.

Now, there is
so much suffering

I can offer a little friendship.

Unfortunately,
not everyone wants it.

Now that you have told me
everything, I understand you.

Be brave.
Be brave, Marc.

Keep hoping
for you have done nothing.

You, you believe me.
Yes, I believe you.

The truth is in your heart.

Why should they believe me?

when you have done nothing
you have nothing to prove.

And yet, they have proof.

Your brother's confession?

Don't mention that

We must mention it.

But you risk your life

For your country's enemies?

So you are
Alfred's friend now

And we must never talk of enemies.

Especially not around of the Gestapo.

Speak as little as possible.

I have said nothing

But your brother has spoken

Do we know what one says
under torture?

I'd have done the same.

But Alfred
know what you can expect

He knows what you risk.

What can poor Alfred do
for the two of you?

Nothing.

Yes.

Father,
A German is looking for you.

"A German"?
What does he want?

He did not say.
He's going to arrest you.

You should escape

Let's not be foolish.

I will go and see.

Be careful.

Will this never end?

Jean.

Alfred!

You frightened me.

What are you doing here?
First, I want to eat

This is the friar
who got me out of prison.

Clara, set another place
and a bottle of Beaujolais.

Brother Alfred
likes a good drink.

Sit down.

Here.

Something wrong?

And how are you?

Fine.
Still a prisoner.

What?

You got me out of that one,
but I am still a Gestapo prisoner.

Still?

I cannot leave my parish
without permission.

Jean...

When you got out,
You said I could count on you.

Yes, of course

Now is the time.

It concerns a man's life

Two, perhaps

But why me?

You can do anything,
In that prison.

I have tried

But I need your help

That's why I have come here

To bring you back there
Where's that, "back there"?

The prison, of course

But you're mad.
Never!

Your papers!

Boy am I thirsty!

Thirsty?

Yes, very thirsty.

We're together.

In Bourges,

there is a buffet.

I always say...

There's no friend

like the police!

Indentity papers.

Excuse me

To defend himself,

Marc must know what
Yves has said.

Well, not against him...
Against him.

He made it all up.
That I know.

But it won't be easy

Why don't you speak to him?

Our friend has explained it all.

You will speak to him better than I.

Because I am a priest?

Mostly because
I am German.

When I try to talk to him,
he throws me out.

He hates me.

Alright, Alfred
I will go in your place

Not very easy,
But it must be done.

I hope
it will do some good.

Thanks, Jean.

Indeed.

Come on.
It's curfew.

Follow me. Come on

Don't worry.
I am alright with the guard.

They give me 30 francs
And they go out looking for women

And Alfred
is King of the Prison.

I have brought someone

Since you don't trust me

Please try, it's important

Listen, and do what he says

Everything he says
Have no fear

We are all friends.

You'll see
he's much better than Alfred.

Much better

Count on me
I will tell them I lied

Boichet.

My name is Boichet.

I am in the Resistance

I am in the Resistance

Come in

Shoes

Shoes

Shoes

Look I found a safety pin

That's good

I am not alone.
Plus, look

I can count the days

How long have I been here?
15 days

That's all?

I have good news...

Tomorrow you will leave solitary

The cuffs will come off

And you'll have a
companion in the cell.

A fine boy.

Let me see your back.

It's much better

Guess what Yves has done!

He protected me.
He told them he lied.

It's almost over.

How brave he was!

Oui.

So young,
I have never seen such a thing.

Where do I put them?
Put them in 117.

Together?
Of course.

I refuse

Who is in charge here?

It's his fault we are here.

How old are you?

And you?

You'll stay together

Ok.
And he'll be sorry

Prisoners must not
make their own misery.

You will get enough of it here.

Toledano will take care of them

Who is that?

Some kind of priest.
A nice guy.

Hi.
Hi.

Hi.

We can't fit
four in here

Just escape then!.

Great.
Get us out then!

Does it happen often?
Enough.

Not enough.

What the heck are
they doing?

Leaving here...
They have no worries.

Go ahead, continue.

In Paris, we were
poor apprentices.

Then our grandmother...
You are brothers?

Don't make me sick.

We're cousins.
Too much already.

She sent us on vacation
to an uncle in Limoges.

Fresh supplies there

But the uncle
had left with the Maquis.

Not so loud.
No.

Don't mention the Maquis
here.

At first, it wasn't too bad

We wanted to be boy scouts,
But we had no money.

It got better,
We climbed trees.

Why your grandmother?

My father was killed in the war

And my mother,
I don't know.

They say she was crazy.

I think
she skipped town

What were you doing
in the trees?

We collected parachutes

When they got tangled.

The others were
older than you.

We got stuck with the chores.

So we got sick of it
and left.

But it gets better:

This one had to take a souvenir

And you know what it was?

A grenade.

As a souvenir!
Idiot!

And of course
we were caught

Here.

I don't know
what to do about you.

Don't worry about it.

Wounded in the hip

A bullet in the kidney

Make him last,

He's got things to tell us

This man needs a hospital.

This bastard?

Don't feel bad for him.

Think of your comrades
he killed

He needs care.

Cut the drama!

Take him away.

Don't defend

that faker

Be patient,

we'll catch him someday

Just wait

Yes, to the hospital

Alright Sir,

But not in Bourges,

It's too poorly guarded

Here I'm not responsible

I don't mean Bourges...

But in Tours...

Not in Bourges

92 miles away.

Can he make it?

Of course...

He'll be well guarded

in Tours

a car...it's urgent!

as soon as possible

No cars this morning.

Get him a taxi!

Monsieur Magnol,

You'll be driven to Tours.

You'll be treated there.

Tell me

Where I can contact the person
whom you called for in the night?

I called for someone?

Suzanne.

My wife

We scared you?

You're driving him

to Tours.

Why me?

I'm just a medic.

That's what he need!

It's a test of confidance

You can't refuse.

You'll give me 2 soldiers?

Out of the question -

Just you,

considering his condition...

What else can we do?

Nothing.!

Careful. He's in pain

He's done for.

Courage.

Merci.

You are the...?

Alfred?

Yes. Why?

Oh nothing.

We will stop at Mennetou.

But...
I am not allowed.

Stop at Mennetou.

Then, go and find
Mme Magnol.

Yes...

Father.

Madame Magnol.
Madame Magnol.

Madame Magnol.

Madame Magnol.

Madame Magnol.

Madame Magnol.

Open up.

Your husband is waiting.

No, my husband was arrested.

That's why he's here.

I don't believe you.
No, don't close up.

Believe me.

He's here, in Mennetou.

How?

Come down, for God's sake.

He is a friend.

Madame,

So you can see your husband.

He's going to hospital.
He was wounded.

But he's very brave.

François...

François.

Pink doves?
What do you know!.

Because we paint them.

Isn't it bad for them.
No.

with lipstick
and alcohol.

Well, when we can find any.

It makes them a little drunk.
They like it.

I prefer Pernod
to get me drunk

And for you, monsieur?
A drink?

Non, merci.

In my job
I must not drink.

In mine, I must!

You were lucky to happen onto me.

My uncle was supposed to drive.
He's on the Kraut's side.

Really?
The Gestapo ordered him.

But since he was busy,
he lent me the car.

A sign from God.

Real luck.

Alfred is always lucky.

God looks after him.

To your health.

Alright, madame.

It's time.

Madame...

Madame...

It's time.

Oh,thank you, Alfred.

Thanks to you, I have seen him again.

Perhaps...

For the last time.

...

Madame,

Do you know anyone
who can hide you?

Yes of course.
I will take you there.

Aftewards, save yourselves,
leave with him

But where?

Very far away
Save yourselves

But they will arrest you.

It doesn't matter.
I'm just a little Franciscan...

No, it's crazy.
They will shoot you.

We must go crazy,
To make God help us.

Alfred does it all the time
and it works.

Listen to Alfred.

Leave with Monsieur Magnol.

In my condition,
We'll be captured.

That will make 3 shot
instead of one.

Thank you with all my heart

But save my wife.

And save yourself.

Take me to the hospital.

Do your duty.

No, no, no, no

Listen to Alfred.

I can really help you to do this.

It's easy. God will help.

He just now gave us a sign.

An you don't want to.

They don't want to.

Then....courage, sir.

Courage also for poor Alfred.

We must go on.

The bad guys
are so strong...

You made a stop

On the round-trip?

On the way

For lunch

Is that the truth?

Alfred always

tells the truth

The truth?

The truth!

I'll make you

Spit it out!

The truth!

Corporal Stanke,

You made a stop

while on a mission!

Yes I was hungry

Hungry?

Really!

Where did you eat?

In Mennetou.

Can you prove it?

Ask the driver

You trust him.

What restaurant?

I can't recall...

It had pink doves

I know it

The Lion d'Or!

It's all very odd

I was sent

I didn't want to go

In any case

He did not escape

You were lucky

You'd rather I let him escape

so you could blame me for that

You'd like that?

I ask the questions!

I'm a German soldier...

I have the right....

To get the hell out!

Out right now!!

Did you hear?

Disappear!

With that idiot

who knows what he's up to?

He's more clever

than we think.

Have you no ties?
I never had one.

Then, button up your shirts.

You must look good
for the tribunal.

Very good.

Wait.

I thought the tribunal
was only for adults.

When you do something stupid,

You're an adult.

What are our chances?
2 years maximum.

By that time, the English
will have landed.

"2 years."
You have really done me in.

It could be 5!
Don't worry about the time.

It's too bad about my black eye.

Don't speak too much
at the tribunal.

Say only...
That you have no parents,

That you never knew your mother.

No problem.
After all, it's nearly true.

Go along my children

See you soon.

They don't know
what they are in for

I did not dare tell them.

I need to go to the toilet
before seeing the judge.

Nein!

I must.

Nein, nein.

You can see
that I cannot.

Take off our handcuffs.

Then you won't piss,
dirty pig!

who are you?
Toledano. Marc and Yves.

We have come for our judgment.

Aren't you
Kommandant Schlager,

joint commander of
Stalag 13 in Hammelburg?

Yes. your name?

Toledano.

I was an interpreter.
Yes, yes I see.

Christmas 1941, you were
in the chapel barracks.

We sang all with
the guards, "Silent Night".

Yes, yes

Come here a moment

Wait here,

with the other one!

That's an order!

You are not needed.

I believe you.

I have already looked
at the file,

Since it is I alas, who must
plead your case.

I don't say "alas" for you.
You have done nothing

But "alas" for your brother,

caught red handed,
And he confessed.

Kommandant...

Confessed all.

And we have proof.

The war is not over, my friend.

Espionnage in time of war

Poses no problem for
a military judge.

Article 3 of the military code
is clear...

and very simple.

A death sentence?

Clear and simple.

I assure you...

please

I will speak to Judge
Trautmann, who awaits us.

I can do that.

Go.

Not much chance.

A miracle
He's a nice man.

He wants to help us.

I am happy for you.

I of course...

It's for both of us.

Hey!
They are condemned to death.

So what.
The Brits are landing.

By Christmas, we'll be free.

If they shoot them...

You will be there with them?

I don't attend executions.

I am not a chaplain

Corporal, guardian
that's all.

But you know them.

You could help them

I cannot help them to die

Men whe are condemned to die
by the Germans.

I am a German.

I, I can't do it.

What good is a priest?
I am not a priest.

You cannot execute?

Impossible. I am a caregiver.

Then, don't worry

Be quiet and sleep.

You can't understand.

You,

You're angry with me too?

No, I was thinking of them.

I will visit them often

Yes, often.

I'm supposed
to go on leave.

I won't go. I promise.

Hi.

Oh, you brought my magazine.
Yes.

That's all that interests me:
science.

I want to be a chemical engineer.

I'll take night courses
to pass the exams.

I have a great memory --
Can remember everything.

You like flowers?

Flowers are chemistry too.

The color, the scent, it's chemicals.

God is a great chemist.

why?

You're Catholic of course.
You made your first communion?

Of course.

You receive still?
No, not any more.

But you pray to God?
He does not exist.

You say you are Catholic.

If God existed, he would not

Let such terrible
things happen.

And who created the Earth and skies?

Oh that.
It happened by itself.

"By itself"?
Please explain.

I can't.

Exactly, I need time to study.

The experts can prove it.

How they will do it? I don't know.

When I am better educated,
I will explain it to you.

What if they are wrong?

But they are experts.

Meanwhile,

You could say a little prayer to God

since you don't know.

One day, I will know that
the experts are right.

Unitl then, I must study.
They studied, certainly.

I will let you study.

Are you angry?

"Angry"? No.

But I am a little sad for you

Because God is a great comfort
when one is in pain.

If you knew you were going to die
tomorrow,

Would you be unhappy?

I think so.

Yet you believe in God.
It's a waste of time.

I'd be unhappy
But I would have hope.

My hope is that
We will be pardoned.

I have no other.

And that's a lot.

Then...

You can ask God for your pardon.

Ask him for it.

What have you to lose?

If you receive it,
You have lost nothing.

You can always say it was
good luck.

Say :

"God,

"I don't know if you exist,

"but if you do exist,

"let me be pardoned."

If I say to someone

"if you existed",
then I believe he exists.

Otherwise, I would not say anything.

So I have to believe.

One minute.
Afterwards, don't give it a thought.

That's no good.

Why?
You will be asking

pardon of your enemies.

It's not the same thing.
My enemies exist.

You never speak to people
who no longer exist?

Your mother, don't you speak
to her?

Speak, no. But sometimes
I call to her.

But I knew her...a little.

Serge,

Do as you please.

You're a proud, brave man.

And honest.

If you won't pray
I will pray for you.

For you and your brother.
My cousin.

Your cousin Jean -Pierre.

He's mad at me.

"Mad"? Not at all.

You're just saying that
to make me feel good.

Still a little angry.

That's better.

I understand
In his place I...

Do you forgive your cousin
for having talked too much?

Forgive?

We always ask that of those
we have hurt.

Yes
Everybody can hate the next guy,

But only the victim
can forgive.

Forgive him...

What's the point
if we're going to die?

Forgiving is alright,
if we'll see each other.

There's name-calling, apologies,
and we're friends again.

But you'll see each other again.

Oh yes.

You mean, up there?

Up, there, I am certain
he will understand, Serge.

You'll be friends again.

Would you like me
to come back?.

As much as you like,

As long as they haven't shot us.

Well... Let's go.

You will tell her, my grandmother?

Tell her that you have placed
flowers on the grave.

She will be pleased.

I will place some flowers.

Don't bother.
Just tell her you did.

I will place them.

As you wish.

What were you doing

at the cemetary?

I pray there

every day.

for all the dead.

I don't say mass, but

I can pray.

I saw a Frenchman,

I don't know what he

was doing.

I was at the tomb

of a German aviator...

That, they could have told you.

It will be verified.

I've got my eye on you

Stanke!

You risk disciplinary action!

A final warning!

Get out of here!

Hey
Hello, Alfred.

Hello.

He's here.

Is something wrong?

Everything.

I've had enough.

They shot two of them this morning.

Two young ones

Who I liked.

Tell me about it

we must continue the work
for the living.

The postman Desgeorges.

Duchaussoy, Masselin,
family from Nevers.

Here, that's for Granier,
for the hunchback, for Gilbert.

No.

Shot, Gilbert.

"Shot"?
Yes.

Gilbert?

I'll get some water.

Hi, Ferrandon.

-Hello, Félix.
Alfred is here.

Here's Ferrandon.

Hi.

Hi.

Here's the mail.

Well, you've got a
taste for it!

What will you drink
after the war?

After the war
Alfred will do nothing.

He will be content.

Alfred, we have to leave.

Alfred can't walk.

Careful.

Not careful today.

Today is the day of death.

I've had enough.

We'll take you back,
Here, straighten up.

Stop.
Let me go.

Where are you going?

Soldatenheim,
That's where I'm going.

But you've gone crazy.

Come here.

You're crazy.

Alfred, come down.
Come here.

This is no time for singing,

You band of idiots!

They shot two boys

Two children

This is not a war,

It's an assassination.

Who was on the firing squad?

All of you!

And me

I was there too.

Disgusting war!

Hitler, I curse...!

And England too!

Let him go.

He's crazy.

Toledano, Marc. Sign here.

Good luck, my son.

I've been acquitted.
The judge told me yesterday.

Goodbye, sir.

Alfred...

I am saying goodbye.

I go to the tribunal
but all alone,

As a free man.

And I lose
my best friend.

No. What about Yves?

Not the same.

You know, Alfred,

Yves,he needs you
as much as I.

More, perhaps.
I know.

But with him,
you can't tell.

Wait till he calls for you?

You can count on Alfred.

Go.

I am free.

And Yves?

To death?

Mother, there is
still hope.

They are going to
enter an appeal.

"An Appeal."
In Berlin, the judges signed it.

I'm an officer
and I did my duty.

Madame,

believe me,

with this document we have signed,

Your son has a 90%
chance of pardon.

And the other 10% sir?

The other 10%?

You could see him,

I have given orders.

Thank you.

They are losing the war.
Berlin is being bombed daily.

Can you see Hitler
signing a pardon now?

I expect nothing from Hitler,

But much from
the appeal.

It's a delay in the process.

What's that, a delay?

A delay is better than hope.

If not, it will all be over
in few days

It will be alright.

Identity papers.

An appeal of pardon,
that's a traveling file

It could get lost.

Be quiet.

We could help it get lost.

A file is only paper.

Lost,

destroyed.

You're dreaming.
No.

Men have escaped the
firing squad that way.

There is a chance.

Some in the Gestapo
can be bought.

There are many thugs
among them.

Luckily for us.

We have money in common
with thugs.

Yves.

Lucien was condemned to death.
I know.

The judge had a hard time
reading the sentence.

He nearly wept.

For me as well.

They say he'll be pardoned.

Yes. For me too.
They kill you, but they pardon you.

Be quiet, Alfred.

I don't like
a guard who cries.

You're mean.

Why not?

Alfred.

I won't stand for all of this.

It's stupid...
But I feel like killing myself.

Yves.

My child, you know there
is another life

Where we find what we love.

I don't know.

But yes, you know.
You're a Christian.

You have hope.

67, Le Chevalier.

13, Josse.

5, this morning.

They're clearing out the prison.

42,

Hucret.

And again right away,
tomorrow morning.

63, Berlier.

72...

I can't do it.
I can't do it.

Watch them all die!
Let them die!

I want to die too.
We need you,

Don't do that.

No one needs me!

Yes, the Gestapo needs me.

They destroy a man,

I restore him a little,
And they start again.

You can't do any good
in hell.

Everything you've done
has ended badly.

Alfred is an executioner
like the others.

I'm no longer a religious man,

Nor a German.
Nothing.

I'm a poor man,

Empty.

I've nothing left to give
anyone.

If that's so, Alfred,
then let it all go.

I can't.

Come, Alfred.

They will be shot.
Certainly, it's horrible.

But it's not the first time
you have seen this.

Important people?

They're being shot,
so they are.

Yes.

Friends of yours.

They are all my friends.

I understand.

It's a bit like the day
of the two boys.

You're not drinking.

Here.

Give me a little anyway.

Not too much.

Georges,
you say I have always helped you.

I don't know, maybe.

But today,
It's I who need help

No one can do anything.

You're right.

No one can do anything.

Yes!

Yes!

You know what happened in Lyon?

In Lyon ?

The story of the van?

Yes, I mean the story of the van
with 6 condemned men inside

At Polygone.

It was attacked.

I know.

And all 6 were rescued.

yes.

Only one dead.

Yes. A German.

It was great!

Your friends could do that here.

5 kilometers from the prison,
in the fields

many roads are deserted.

And you are proposing this?

I can't believe it.

Why?

You're a holy man.

I am not a holy man!

How can I be, seeing
what I have seen?

Some will die.

So what?
If it succeeds!

Only Krauts, let's hope.

You won't see it
but there will be some.

Why won't I see it?

Alfred is not a coward.

I will be in the truck
with the condemned men.

A German cannot ask this of
the French without risking himself.

Tell your friends about it.

I will follow their orders.

What?

You will kill your own kind?

Certainly not.

But if a German is killed,
it may be me.

So, you want to die?

Never mind me, Desgeorges.
Try to understand.

You have heard what I want.

You are asking a lot.

It's difficult.

Dammit!

Translate, please.

Not worth it.

Alright.

I will try to get you killed,
if that's what you want.

But I can't promise anything.

I have no influence with
the Maquis.

The youngsters may go along.
But their leader is a military man.

I will talk to them about it.

When will you know?

I'll seem them tonight,

I will have their answer around
5 o'clock.

Good.

You smoke too much, Desgeorges.

You don't smoke
enough in prison.

So, you are taking it all?

Yes.

It's blessed to receive.

You give, I receive,
same thing.

It's from Lohengrin.
Thank you sir.

Here's what I owe you.

Count it, my dear.

You have the file?

It's pretty thin, but...

It's heavier
than it weighs, I know.

If you would
burn it in my presence,

I can be sure.

Tonight in Bourges I will say

That Toledano's file
has been destroyed.

Which is true.

In a Berlin bombing.

In fact,
There was one last night.

You know about it?

So I can assure his father?

This is not the first time
we work together,

And it has always succeeded.

Always.
Thank you.

This man doesn't exist

as far as a death sentence goes.

In time of war

not existing,
is the safest way to live.

Go with your masters.

It's Alfred.

Something terrible!

Not for us.

I must leave
for England.

You're not leaving!
Yes.

Hurry, the truck is waiting.
Give me some brandy.

For you, not for the others.
You're staying here.

No.
You're staying here.

You're crazy.
You'll get yourself killed.

We'll hide you.

Here, or with the Franciscans.
You but not your brothers.

They are all my brothers.
My brothers are in the truck.

Brandy.

After all you've done,

We want you here.

The war is not over.

Alfred stays with the Germans.
Right now, they're suffering.

It's their turn.

Never say that, madame.

God does not want
each of us to suffer.

I know my country
is retreating, and I go along.

Close the door.

Don't try to stop me.

If Alfred stayed here,

He'd fall to the ground
like a rag.

No more Alfred.

Give it to me.

Alright.

You're...

You're a dope.

I am German soldier.

-Here, some brandy.

Some Pernod.

Thanks, Desgeorges.
Wait.

What do I owe you?

600,000 francs.

You're kidding me.

No, Alfred.

I'm not laughing.

And what do I owe to you?

No goodbyes.

No goodbyes because...

I'm a dope.

If you change your mind...

I won't.

You can say :
"Alfred's going back to his mother."

Do you still have
your mother?

She is already dead.

"His mother"?
I don't understand.

That means his country.
He's a Kraut.

Here.

Look at your family!
They did not even wait for you.

They don't want you.

Stop.

Here.

Here.

I'm dying...

Don't be afraid!

Alfred is here..
