Do you believe it's possible...

...that they've taken away
the child from Julia?

Why should someone do that?
- I only want to know what happened!

Tell me what happened
with my daughter!

It's about the young lady who
bothered you today.

Are you planning something?
- No, why?

Is this your wife, comrade Kupfer?

I want to see you again!

Your child is dead!
- No! She's alive! I know it!

And you won't scare me anymore!
Never again!

No!

She was unconscious for about half
a minute. She lost a lot of blood.

Looks like her pelvic artery
was injured...

Good evening, I'm sergeant Goerlitz.
What happened here?

A young woman.
Looks like she ran into a truck.

The driver's sitting over there.

Here. This is her bag.
- Did you see the accident?

No, I didn't. I live here...
Nearby.

I heard the crash and ran outside.
I'm a doctor...

Get up. Come on!
Papers. Driving license.

Julia! Julia!

Who are you? Step aside, please.
- Leave him. That's okay.

He belongs to her.
It must've been an accident.

She probably ran into a truck.
- How is she?

She's lost a lot of blood. We're
driving to Friedrichshain hospital.

You can come along.

The truck driver said that she's
run right in front of his truck.

Come on, Julia. Please.

Please!

We want to get old together.
Come on.

Lieutenant-colonel Kupfer speaking.

There was a traffic accident
in Gubener street today.

One casualty, a woman.

Please find out where she was taken
and how she's doing.

It's urgent...
No, I'm waiting.

Her injuries were too severe.
We couldn't do anything for her.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing here?

She's dead.

Who's dead?

Falk?!

Julia Hausmann.
She was run over.

How do you know?!

From a comrade in unit 8.
He heard it on police radio.

l just called the hospital...
- Martin...

Does Martin know?!
- He's in the hospital, yes.

And her mother?

Here's a guest for you, Dunja!

What a surprise!
Do you want to congratulate me?

I have to talk to you.
- Come on, have a drink with me.

You know what, I just thought of you.

And then you're standing there.
It's like a miracle...

It's about Julia! Please!

What has my mouse done this time?

She had an accident!
- What accident?!

I'll drive you to the hospital.
- Hospital?

Why hospital?
Why hospital?!

Come on.
I�ll give you a tranquilizer.

No, thanks.
I have to stay here.

But this makes no sense, Mr. Kupfer...

Leaving makes no sense...

We're here!

Roman! Hello!
Are you back again?!

You're looking well.
- How are you?

How often did I wish for
that woman to be dead.

But I didn't want it to really happen.

It wasn't your fault. It was
an accident. It can happen to all of us.

Don't say that...
It happens so quickly.

I'm so scared, Vera...

I love you, Vera.

I believe the two of us can make it.

I wasn't in the mood to talk
to you about this here yesterday.

But today I have to. Geifel presented
these to Gaucke yesterday.

We're having marriage
counseling together...

...and you want to adopt a foster child.

Yesterday you acted
as if you loved me.

Why did you betray me like that, Vera?
- Falk, l...

Are you having an affair?
- Who?

You and this priest. Do you love him?
- No. There's nothing!

Don't lie to me, Vera! Don't...
-I can explain this to you.

This is absolutely harmless!
- What, harmless?

How naive are you?

You're the wife of an officer of the
state security and meet this scum!

You know the consequences?
- I'm sorry, but...

Sign this. This is the only chance
to get out of the matter.

I should commit myself as an informer?
Are you crazy?

No, you're crazy
endangering us like that!

But I can get you out of this,
as I always get you out of trouble.

But this time, Vera...
This time I need your help!

I can't do this.

Vera, if the two of us and Roman mean
anything to you, you'll sign. Please!

l cannot betray these people.
They're my friends!

Friends? This is the enemy, Vera,
no matter how nice they are to you.

And you're endangering all of us!

Geifel will have you arrested
and interrogated...

Do you know what that means?
And he will arrest me too...

Geifel. But you've known each other
for many years, you're colleagues...

Where do you think you live? The
whole family will be made responsible.

All of us. Even Roman!

You're ruining your son's future,
don't you understand?!

I'm sure you've known it?!

Please, sign.
This is our only hope.

We can get through this, but only
if we stick together. Vera...

I�m on your side.

Do you know how we split up?

What I told her last?

l said it was all her fault.

She knew that you loved her, Dunja.

Here. Drink this.

We've done everything wrong.

Yes.

That's easy to say now.

Tell me, Mrs. Elster!
What's wrong with you?

I drove past you at the bus stop,
I waved at you like mad...

...and you didn't see or hear a thing.

Are you on cloud nine
or in depression?

I was buried in thought.
- Got it.

You've got trouble
with your guy again?

No, everything's fine.
Roman's back and we're all happy.

Sure. Tell it to the marines.
You look like a ghost. What's wrong?

Alright, I won't get on
your nerves any longer.

But should I find out that your guy's
giving you a hard time, he's had it.

I must prepare things
for the hiking day.

But you'll come tonight?
It's Robert's birthday.

We'll have a barbecue.
And then we'll get drunk; open end...

I don't think so.
- Pardon?

Do you want to leave us high and dry?

Robert's looking forward to seeing
you. I'm not supposed to tell you but...

Don't you understand me?

l can't be with you all the time,
drinking and celebrating!

I've got a husband
and a child at home.

Great husband.

Even when you talk about him,
I can smell your fear.

And let me tell you something.
I've got a family too.

It might not be as perfect as yours,
but at least they let me have fun.

You're really stupid right now but I'd
still be glad if you came tonight.

Stupid owl! We're friends.

Go right in.

Is it true that Haussmann�s daughter
had an accident? Irreparable? Dead?

Yes, death is irreparable.
Even in socialism.

Can I hear a feeling of regret?
- Well, it's about a human life after all.

And I'm thinking of my brother.
- That poor lad.

He was so in love, right until the end.
Well, now it's over.

Some things take care of themselves.

And the mother doesn't bother us
any longer either.

No.

I heard the young Miss Hausmann
was looking for her daughter.

She didn't want to believe that
she's dead. Is that true?

Yes.
- And?

I don't expect any complications,
don't worry.

What about your brother?
Does he believe in resurrection too?

I�ve got my brother under control.

Well, then your family's almost
alright again, Kupfer! Almost!

lf it wouldn't be for the tiny
matter with your wife...

I�d like to apologize again for
neglecting the official way.

It won't happen again,
comrade lieutenant general.

Just what I expected.

Send your wife my honest regards,
Kupfer. Respect, Kupfer.

Well. The opportunity with her
colleague was simple too good.

My wife and I always pull together.

I�m glad to hear that.

My wife might pull at me sometimes
but politically she's a numb...

When will you give me permission
to control Geifel's unit?

As you see, he's not the right man
for the Cross Church matter.

Bring me some operational
results and I'll think about it.

But I need full access to the records.

So I can co-ordinate my wife's
activities with those of the unit.

Boy, don't you want to go home?
- No, thanks. I�m rather here and work.

You can always come to my place.
- Thanks.

Dr. Maiwald!

l must talk to you.
It's important.

What do you want from me?
I haven't seen anything.

Of course not. There was
nothing to be seen anyway.

But I think you should take a rest.
Go on vacation.

How about the Baltic Sea...
Shall we say for 3 weeks?

l can't...
My work.

We'll take care of that. Don't forget,
it's about the security of the GDR.

Miss Hausmann!

I know that you're in!

l have to talk to you.
It�s important.

I�d like to discuss
the funeral with you.

l want it to be really nice, for Julia...

I'm sure you want the same.

I'd like us to have a nice farewell.
Only the closest friends.

Not many will come.

She was five then, in the animal park.

She was so scared,
but took it bravely.

So she was always like that?

l wanted to take flowers from
our garden. She always liked them.

I also wanted to say a few words.

And you?
Don't you want to sing something?

You won't eat with us tonight.
- Why not?

You have gymnastics today.
But I don't.

Officially. Unofficially you'll celebrate
Robert Wolff's birthday with him.

These are the presents.
Remember the names of the guests.

And what they say...

Vera, I must deliver information,
otherwise Gaucke doesn't believe us.

Please, I can't.

You'll manage. Just remember
what you're doing it for, okay?

Here. You still have to wrap it up.
Nice and affectionately.

Thanks.

Hello?

Vera! What a surprise!

Happy birthday.

But that wasn't necessary...
We're all in the backyard...

Let's go out!
No...

I�m so glad that you're here.
Yes, come on!

Here's another crate of beer.
- I don't believe it.

So I didn't keep you
away with my big mouth. Great!

What does she want here?
- Celebrate with me. Just like you.

Listen up everyone! This is my
friend Vera, we work together.

Hello, Vera!

Would you like a beer?

It's nice here.
- Thank you.

There you go, a Spanish sausage.
- And what's Spanish about it?

The accent. You only have to listen
while you chew it.

You see?
Like this, Senora.

You must be hungry
after your long way.

For everyone: I live in Weissensee,
my husband's an active party member.

And if he knew with
whom I�m celebrating...

...he'd put me on the barbecue.
Was that all? Thank you.

Luschi, that was good!

Come one, a bird never
flew on one wing.

Luschi, I think your idea with
the star journey's really good.

No one will be suspicious if always
only a few set out by bicycle.

And only before the Sportsforum
we'll meet and put on our scarfs.

We're planning a demonstration
against air pollution on Sunday.

The sausage is really nice.

An international handball tournament
takes place in the Sportsforum.

The whole western press will be there.

They'll certainly report
about our demonstration.

And state security can't stop us
that easily...

Some bread?
Thank-you.

By the way, Clemens Haupt,
Christine Grothe and Peter Grimm...

They also want to come.
- Great!

I�ve forgotten something!
I'm sorry.

My mother-in-law wanted to
do something with me...

...and she's so distrustful.
Enjoy your birthday! Bye.

Pity...
Wait, I�ll take you.

You don't need to,
I'll find my way out.

Vera!
Are you afraid of something?

l like you. You have to believe me.
This has nothing to do with you!

Then you shouldn't come again.

Why?
- I�m messing up your life.

You question everything. And that's
not good for someone like you.

What does that mean,
for someone like me?

You said it yourself.
You live in Weissensee.

Your husband's with the party,
probably a bigwig.

I don't even want to know.

And suddenly you
start asking questions.

And the answers will end in a disaster.
At least, in your opinion.

That's pretty arrogant. You all believe
you know the one and only truth.

Vera, they all have skeletons
in the closet back there.

The only question is whether
you'll tell anyone.

I can't do this.
- What can't you do?

Be like you!

Thank God, Vera.
Thank God!

What's up?

My sister-in-law is dead...

She had an accident yesterday.
l have to go now.

Vera...

Here's one from the technological
university for me.

Already?!
- Well, then open it!

And?
- Yes, I'm accepted!

I knew it!
- Yes!

Finally something's happening again!
It went pretty quickly!

They can be glad to get you.

This is the obituary
for Julia Hausmann.

" Our beloved wife and daughter''?
They placed it together!

Obviously.
The funeral's at two.

Will you go there?

I won't leave my son alone
on such a day.

If Martin had wanted us to come,
he'd have sent this letter earlier.

That makes no difference now.

l went to him and he
left me standing there.

Instead he gets together with this...

I can't do this. I can't stand with this
woman at her daughter's grave.

She's brought so much misery
to our family.

Marlene, this woman
has lost her daughter.

Yes, I know. And it's bad.
- And it's also about Martin!

Yes, for you it's easier.
You've a natural affinity to this person.

l have to go. I�m so glad!
- Bye.

I�ll take you to the day care center.
- How nice of you.

Do you still want yoghurt?

I think grandpa's doing the right thing.
- So you think?

Ever since I was little you've been
telling me how important the family is...

And that we must all stick together.

Your uncle Martin has
excluded himself.

So why has he given me his kidney?

So?

There were 1 5 people. Robert,
Nicole and Thomas, her son.

I didn't know the others.

What? No one else was
introduced to you?

I wasn't there that long.
- So why did you come home so late?

l was driving around.
- Damn it, it doesn't work that way!

You got us into this mess, Vera.
And you'll get us out again. Alright?

I'm really trying hard to treat you
differently to what I used to...

With your special characteristics.
Doesn't this mean anything to you?

It does.

Am I worthless for you?
- No! Falk.

l see how you're changing. And I�m
really grateful that you don't drop me.

Your so called friends, they're not
there for you when you're not well.

lf they knew what you're really like,
you'd be their enemy. Believe me.

Don't forget our appointment
at the children's home today?

Thank you.

Shit. Shit. Shit!

Julia had a dream.

The dream of a party at which all
people would sit together at a table.

They'd love and respect each other.
In peace.

We always wanted to celebrate
this party together.

We promised each other.
We both believed in it.

She, even more than I. Someone once
said that she had the courage to love.

And that's right; her love was like
the air around us. Everywhere.

And now she's dead...

l only wanted to tell you that this
person, this woman, my wife...

I know that there are probably
still other good people.

Pretty and funny and loyal people.
But never again Julia.

Someone's written on the wall,
the letters bright and blue...

No rain, no sun,
no wind in Weissensee.

It says: what will save the world?

Not the talking, nor the silence,
not the listening, nor the seeing.

Not Confucianism, narcissism,
communism...

Sleep, my little Julia, sleep now.

It says on the hoarding, softened by
the rain, torn by the wind, ism, ism...

But what will save the world?

No raving, no quake, no light,
no water, no shade.

In the shade there's a man, a woman:
What will save the world?

Major general Kupfer. Stop taking
photos. Leave! This is an order!

You still haven't had enough,
you pigs? Isn't this enough?

Leave my boy alone!

Comrade major general!
- Go away!

Move away! There'll be
consequences! Comrade Kupfer!

We mustn't raise false hopes.
- And we're not, Vera.

It�s only another appointment
to get to know each other.

And both of us want it. Or not?
- Yes, but...

You always worry too much. Let's
simply enjoy the afternoon with Sonja.

Or shall we cancel everything?
- No, of course not...

Hello!
- The bear is healthy again!

Show me. You're right!
- Sweet.

Well, then he can certainly
go for an ice cream, right?

Yes!

That was pretty...
- Well...

Well, then...

Bye.

And then Martin Kupfer pulled out
the film and destroyed it.

It's unbelievable, I must say.

Because when second lieutenant
Troschke wanted to...

...arrest Martin Kupfer, his unit was
attacked by father and son Kupfer!

The major general attacked us like a
berserk, I thought he wanted to kill us!

I just said that,
second lieutenant Troschke.

Emotionally it wasn't
an normal situation.

And if I got it right,
second lieutenant Troschke...

...rejected the order
of major general Kupfer.

With very good reason!

How dare your father starts
countering my orders?

I�m asking myself the same question.

His presence at the funeral alone is
reason enough for a strict rebuke.

l think he was confused emotionally.
He wanted to stand by his son. Yes.

Maybe one should understand this.
- Stop it now!

All this emotional nonsense!
What's all this modern nonsense?

Major general Kupfer would like
to talk to you, comrade General.

Well, you see,
he's come to apologize.

What's this?
- A complaint in writing.

Yesterday's operation
at Julia Hausmann's funeral.

...was inappropriate
and unprofessional.

Being an officer I feel ashamed.
- This is a joke, right?

I'm surprised you're
in the mood for jokes. Respect!

This is no joke.

A young woman is buried and you
behave like bulls in a china shop.

A forbidden song was sung.
- I heard nothing.

Have you got any proof?
- You attacked our own people.

No! They've rejected my order
and attacked me first!

I was told a different version.

Then it's my word against that
of the petty officers...

...who carried out this
ragged operation.

Hans, you were always
different than us. But now it's enough!

This time there'll be consequences!

Alright, then I�ll pass on
my complaint to the minister.

l tried to prevent a provocation in
order to avoid political damage.

Dunja Hausmann's well known
in the west too!

I don't think the
minister will be amused.

Times are changing.
Come on, Guenther.

You know yourself that
this " operation" was stupid!

lf we'll fight this out, there'll be a lot
of trouble. No matter what the result.

And why? So that comrade
Geifel's right? Is it worth it?

Geifel's an idiot.
- Exactly.

But don't you think you
can continue like this.

You must have longing if you're
even breaking a door...

l didn't think I'd see you again,
comrade Kupfer.

l have to talk to you.

There's nothing
we need to talk about.

But that's not true.

If you've a bad conscience,
go home to your wife...

...and buy her something nice.

If you're here because of me,
have a drink with me.

I don't want this.
- What don't you want? Decide?

That's nothing new.

l don't want to watch you drinking
yourself to death. You understand?

Your son's killed me!
And you want to blame me for it now?

No. I want to help you.
- I don't need your help.

And certainly not your compassion.
Who do you think you are?

Stop drinking!

My child is dead!
Do you understand? Yes?

But it's not about Julia!
It�s always only about you!

Julia's death is only an excuse
for you to continue to drink.

What did you just say?
Go away.

Leave my apartment!
Go away. Get lost!

And don't you ever come back again!
Never again...

I'll get myself some water.
Does anyone else want something?

No, thank you.

Hans is standing there.
Shall I call him in?

No. Leave it. He'll come.
- Vera, wait. Wait.

I'll announce the news without him.

Tomorrow I'll sign the application
for the adoption.

I�m so glad.
- So quickly?

Falk, we wanted to take our time...

Why should we continue torturing
the poor girl? Everything's fine.

You simply decide without me?
- But why without you, Vera?

Are you nuts?
You said you wanted it too!

I don't know! You understand
nothing at all. Nothing.

What's there to understand? The fact
that you don't know what you want?

The fact that I gave my all for you,
for nothing?

Or do you still don't understand?
Namely where you belong.

I can't tomorrow.
- Oh, I see?

What's so important then?

You wanted me to be your informer...
- Vera...

So I must spend time
with these people.

And that's exactly what I will do.

Here, Mrs. Elster!

Hello.
l didn't know you had a bicycle.

Here, it's for you.

A motorbike doesn't look good
at an environmental demonstration.

We have to go.
Don't forget your scarfs.

Go on...
Go on.

Leave me alone!
- Turn off the camera...

We can't go any further.

But you're a priest.
Can't you walk on water?

I believe you're mistaken.
- Pity.

l thought I�d experience a miracle.
- I am experiencing one.

Why?

Because you're here.
