Grimm!

Are you deaf?

Didn't you hear that?

You have to watch out!

She hasn't been in the forest
for that long.

Darn it!

Good evening Mrs Gruber.

THE SILENT FOREST

Did you just see anyone?

No, I think we're wrong.

The map shows a spruce forest.

I don't see that.

So what now?

Let's do it.

Anything wrong?

Yes. Let's take another one.

- Another one?
- Yes.

Soil Profile: 112

Strong reaction to hydrochloric acid
suggests unusual calcium deposition.

Soil sample 14-32 with moderately

moist silty loam without calcium.

Except 25 + 26 in the Haingries.

Here calcium and sediment layers
in reverse order.

Mother.

There's digging in the Haingries.

Leave!

Xaver...

Go away!

It's me, Anja Grimm

Mrs. Gollas?

Waltraud?

Yes?

We are mapping the region around
Neustadt and Weiden.

Today we are working in
the Leybach Forest.

I know.

You want some more?

Thank you.

Xaver just pointed his gun at me.

What? Oh Lord!

Xaver is nuts.

You just have to shout at him.

As if he was a cow.

How is your mother doing?

Fine.

I left my gear in the Haingries.
I don't want to go back alone.

Where?

The Haingries.

I'll go with you.

No. I'll go.

May I use...

Of course kid, I'll show you the way.

I still remember, thank you.

I almost didn't recognize you.

What a pity.

...my internship ends next week.

Just come along.

We'll go to the house
and I'll talk to him.

He didn't recognize you,

otherwise this would
not have happened.

We'll explain what you are doing.

That'll be the end of it.

Anja!

Thank you for now.

If you recall anything else

please call me. This is my number.

We'll be in touch.

Dallmann, hello?

Why?

Yes, looking forward too.

Hello Dad.

How's Elisabeth?

Well.

And the kids?

Likewise.

Did they pick up Xaver already?

He's at the forensic psychiatry.

Good.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

I found something strange
in the old documents of Xaver.

This thing with the teacher back then.

He was a tourist.

Gone missing.

Hiking accident.

A teacher from Munich.

Johannes Grimm.

Left Faunried to go on a hike
on 18. August 1979.

Last time he was ever seen.

You quickly focused on Xaver

put quite some pressure on him

The first step is to investigate
in all directions.

After one day?

The man had just barely been
reported missing.

There wasn't any suspicion.

Are you going to teach me
police work now?

No, I'm wondering.

No motive, no traces,
no corpse, nothing.

So what?

Well, Xaver had threatened a young
forest trainee in the haingries

with a gun, last week.

And she's the daughter of this
lost teacher Johannes Grimm.

Who cares?

We had two problems back then.

The teacher was the
less important one.

We had this damn state visit.

The Italian president and
Franz Josef Strauß in Flossenbürg.

It got worse every day.

State Security guys calling
all the time with new instructions

So? What's the point?

Xaver ran around in the woods
with his shotgun back then.

As a precaution, we had him
arrested for a few days

Precautionary?

Without any reasonable suspicion?

A madman is always suspicious, no?

This incident with Xaver must have
been very tough for you.

I could instate you elsewhere,
that may be better.

I'm alright.

Why did you even go back
to the Haingries?

Obermüller said you
had finished there.

There was a strange soil profile.

Where?

In the clearing.

You mapped a clearing?

Yes.

We don't map lots
when there is no forest.

I found top soil at 80 cm
and calcium at 120.

Who digs so deep
to make a hunting clearing?

Miss Grimm, I appreciate
your thoroughness,

but we are not at university.

I know you want to
become a soil scientist

but if you go on like this,

our forest will not be
mapped in a hundred years.

Want candy?

No, thank you.

Have you shot anything yet?

No.

Why don't you
make a few kills?

It's part of the job.

Or do you have a problem with that?

In the Haingries?
It's private property.

The boars don't give a damn
about who owns what.

Dallman can't keep up,
so if you want?

Of course not in the Haingries.
In the area around it.

I hope it is urgent.
We were already asleep.

Good thing that one of us
is not sleeping.

This Grimm woman -
how much longer will she be here?

How should I know that.
Ask Grossreither.

I am not going to ask anyone.

You make sure this
cunt will be gone.

Got it?

Wait a minute, what's gotten into you?

She must leave. Now.

Why? And how?

We are not discussing here, Konrad.
Got it?

Stop playing the super cop.

You better watch out
that your mushy brain

doesn't ooze from your ears
with all that questioning.

The moment you find a bomb,
what do you do?

You clear the place and defuse it.

You don't wait for someone
to come along and set it off.

And blow up the whole place, do you?

This Grimm woman -
as if she has a sixth sense.

She reads the forest
like none of us can.

I knew right away that there was
some foul play involved.

All those interrogations of Xaver.

This is about something
completely different.

What can I do for you?

I ask you to dig up
the Haingries

and look for my father's body.

And I want to press charges.

Charges?

Against Xaver Leybach.

For killing my father. Johannes Grimm.

My father disappeared
in these woods 20 years ago.

I'm sure you heard about it.

This is the spot
where Xaver threatened me.

The soil profile shows
profound anomalies,

unusually deep digging.

I first thought I had made a mistake.

Why didn't you tell me right away,

that you spent your vacation here
as a child?

And that you and Xaver
knew each other.

He must have recognized you
when he saw you there. Right?

I was eight years old when
he saw me the last time.

Xaver was strange already back then,

he only played with us children
and avoided adults.

For what reason or motive should Xaver
have harmed your father.

I mean,

a soil anomaly is...

Did he need a reason to smash
his mother's skull?

Or has he told you by now?

My father had been responsible
for the hunting area in the Haingries.

And this wild meadow
I do know quite well.

My father set it up after
the death of my mother.

Long after 1981.

If somebody really buried there
that deep, as you say,

wouldn't they find out?

Especially if somebody dug that deep.

I must talk to Xaver.

Where is he?

He is in a forensic
mental institution.

But...

for now, only family members
are allowed to see him.

You won't recognize him,

He's looking more neat now.

Don't be surprised, your uncle
is slightly sedated.

He can hear you,
but probably won't react.

The door will remain open.
I'll keep an eye on you.

Hello Xaver!

Just wanted to check
how you are doing.

Do you need anything?

I'll get it for you.

Xaver?

So, have you learned to swim by now?

Not particularly well.

Didn't Lukas teach you back then?

Where is he, anyway?

In Zürich,

works for some insurance company.

That suits him. Never wanted
to get his hands dirty.

At least not with soil.

Does he come back here sometimes?

Every other Christmas or Easter.

So you hold the ground?

Looks like it.

The devil will take the hindmost.

It wasn't your decision?

My parents can't manage on their own.

So I got stuck.

And you? How do you cope?

I'm okay.

It's just my mother.
She never got over it.

The worst thing is not that
he is gone, it's uncertainty.

What are you doing?

I was hunting here yesterday.

I fell and lost my knife.

You have to inform me if you do so.

You're right I'm sorry.

You have a good hand
for four-legged friends

Dallmann.

Grimm Anja, forestry intern.

You're a fine one.

That's Iras,

tracks down the wild boars
like no other.

You shot one yesterday?

Yes.

Grossreither is complaining
that I don't hunt enough.

Let him know, that I will
clean the area

in the next few weeks.

The wild browsing is a shame.

And stay away from
the Haingries okay?

Sure.

Unusual rush trace in the Haingries.
Rushes are marsh plants.

In the forest they are
compaction indicators.

They grow in old trail tracks
and transport ways.

Lenka,

two Schnaps.

Sorry for your loss.

Thanks.

Poor Anna...

Anna, your grandmother,
was a fine woman.

What do you know?

She was horrible with Xaver.

And Alois was worse.

They treated him like an animal.

Don't sin against
your grandparents, Rupert.

Not everyone has the patience
of an angel.

Well,

now at least everyone
can make their peace.

You'll see,

in the end it will all have been
a lucky break for you.

A lucky break.

Maybe for the bank.

Why is that?

Now you got the entire forest

without a madman around.

And the two farms.

You can finally build that
fairy tale theme park.

Hansel and Gretel.
The house of the witch and so forth.

It'll be great.

Except for my uncle's rampage -
really bad for business.

You visited him, didn't you?

Did he say anything?

He never talked.

Besides, he's full with stuff
that doesn't exist.

Maybe he just wanted to redeem her.

Redeem her?

By ramming a spade through her brain.

Holy mother Mary.

The next Schnaps will be on me.

Good bye, Gustav.

Good bye, Rupert.

Soil disturbance in the Haingries
on 6x4 meters.

Hello Gustav!

Stay seated.

As shitty as back then.

She was in the Haingries again.

We better give her
what she's searching for,

so she stops searching for,
what she shouldn't find out.

Just leave.

- I have to report this.
- Report?

I might as well hang myself,
if this comes out.

And the village, the entire region?

I don't want to deal with this.

Get out!

We're in a meeting!

What you expect from me is...

...is that you grow up!

That's criminal.

What is criminal
is to blame us for something,

we were not responsible for.

When is it ever going to end?

Dad.

That was murder!

This endless wallowing in guilt.

How do you live with this?

How can you live with it?

We did what had to be done.

I sacrificed myself, you wimp.

For you, too.

Do you think that was easy?

Tomorrow you get it done.

Pretending you didn't know,

wouldn't save your ass now, anyway.

We re-checked all testimonies
and found evidence

that was not followed up, back then.

We didn't have the technical means
twenty years ago.

That's why we brought in
a ground radar,

that's how we found the spot
in the Doost yesterday.

And that was his grave for 20 years?

He was slain, just like Anna,
out of the blue, without any reason?

That's what it looks like.

Trust me we'll make Xaver talk.

You have an appointment, I suppose?

No.

Are you related?

Xaver Leybach murdered my father.

We are related by blood,
so to speak.

Where is he?

Listen, you will have to consult
with the doctor in charge.

You can't just go in there!

Look at me! Xaver!

I have to talk to you.

Xaver.

Xaver, look at me!

Look at me, please look at me!

Why have you killed him?

Say something.

Look at me!

Go away!

Now also my brother.

When is it enough?

What is it that you want from us?

For Dad

August 16th 1979

Urtica Dioica, Nettle

Location: Haingries

Unusual nettle field discovered
in spruce forest.

Such an anomaly suggests

unusually high nitrogen deposition.

Request 287

March 1982

Creation of a wild meadow...

Client: Anna Leybach

General correspondence 1979

Franz Joseph Strauß and the
Italian president Sandro Pertini

visit the Flossenbürg
concentration camp.

Teacher from Munich missing.
According to his landlady,

he left his vacation apartment
to go on a planned excursion

One Tobacco please.

- Thank you.
- Welcome.

Can you hand me the bag?

So sorry for your loss.

Thanks. We'll get over it.

So, the extension,
or the new credit line...

A new credit line ?

That's why we are here,
to talk everything through.

Yes.

Why new?

Father.

Well, you still owe the bank roughly
60.000 Deutschmarks,

we agree on that.

For renovations and build-up,
you will need another 30.000.

For that, our headquarters
needs more assurance.

We now have the Leybach Farm.

That we included already.

Or did your mother leave a will?

But Xaver...

There is no will.

...but is Xaver even eligible..?

Another thirty thousand?

Father, Mother.
One thing at a time.

I just want to make sure
we are all on the same page.

Mrs. Gollas, don't you feel well?

Would you prefer to wait outside?

I'll sort this out. Go ahead.

It's all way too complicated for them.

Because of what happened, the
whole concept is in jeopardy.

You must be aware of that.

No one runs around
with a gun in the forest.

Maybe. But think about it:

a fairy tale themed forest,
where a guy killed his mother?

We also got the additional forest.

First we install the treetop path...

That's not the point...

I got everything worked out
and it adds up.

The treetop path will generate
a profit from day one.

We'll do the theme park later.

The bank will give you the
30.000 Marks without a fuss.

For them it's a profitable deal,
even if you go bankrupt.

I am telling you this in confidence:

if anything goes wrong,

they will take everything you have.

You'll be left with nothing.

I heard the noise.

I don't get it. Do you?

Nobody really understood Xaver.

I thought you were finished here?

Do you remember when
this lot was cleared?

When I was ten or eleven. Why?

The ground was dug up unusually deep.

You can see that?

Top soil is like the skin of a child.
It remembers everything

If someone went missing in a forest,
no one forgets that either.

No one goes on holiday here.

Someone dug a tremendous hole here.

They probably had to remove
extremely deep-rooted rootstock.

Or maybe there was an accident,
a spill of machine oil.

Don't you also want to know
why he did that?

I just want things to be normal again.

...and the accession of
Czech Republic to EU.

The tragedy of Faunried,
which has already claimed one life,

at the beginning of the week,
has taken a sinister turn.

The suspected perpetrator
Xaver Leybach committed suicide

in the forensic mental institution.

According to the police,

he was also a suspect in the
murder of Johannes Grimm.

Your brother?

Killed and buried Johannes Grimm?

You believe that?

He clubbed his own mother to death.

He hated Anna. Just like you.

Let's go!

Everybody bullied and pushed
Xaver around, his whole life.

He could not run away.

And he even took care of her
up to her very end.

Because none of us could
stand being with her.

That's how it was, wasn't it?

And now Xaver is supposed
to have murdered this man Grimm.

I won't believe it in a hundred years.

Who cares what you believe.

It's finally over.

I spent the entire day
with Xaver back then.

We even saw Grimm go
into the Leybach forest.

Xaver has not killed him.

And especially did he not
bury a body in the Doost.

How was he even supposed to go there?

You are lying, you are all lying.

Even you, mother.

Anna did it!

There are mass graves
everywhere around here, Rupert.

From the death marches.

In the Haingries is one too.

The prisoners from the
concentration camp in Flossenbürg

were driven south.

The ones who managed to escape
and hide in the forest,

were hunted down and beaten to death.

Zebra Hunting,

they called it.

Xaver had to watch it all
at that time.

For his education they've said.

And then this teacher came
and started digging right there.

Of all years, in the summer of '79!

That year there was a memorial
service at the concentration camp.

If this teacher had found
the mass grave then

the whole world
would have known about it.

So everyone was fine
with Anna killing the teacher.

That's why everybody
kept their mouth shut!

Even Gustav.

And where are the bodies now?

One day is enough.
You'll have it back in the morning.

How many cubic meters?

Four by six, fifty centimetres deep.

That's more than seven cubic meters,

so a triple-axle unit
would be scarce.

With fluid system as well?

- Yes?
- Anja? It's me, Rupert.

The funeral is this weekend.

I know. I'm sorry.

I know your internship is over
but can we meet again?

I'm going home.

Take care Anja.

Is she gone?

Yes.

Are we doing the right thing, Konrad?

What else should we do?

Tell the truth.

And ruin all of us?

Xaver took revenge for it.

And paid for it.

Yes.

We all pay eventually.

Your father too.

Anna murdered Johannes Grimm
and he covered her.

Do you call that paying?

Two years ago,

I got a call from the director

of the concentration camp
memorial in Flossenbürg.

He wanted to meet me.

So we drove further out to a farm,

somewhere near Waldmünchen.

An old woman lived there,

with her daughter.

The old woman had only
a few months left to live.

So she wanted to confess.

What did she want to confess?

In the spring of 1945,

right past their farm,

concentration camp inmates
were driven south.

One inmate collapsed.

They've shot him.

And she heard the shot.

After they had gone,

she went outside

found the body,

dragged it back to her property

and buried it there.

For fifty years this family
has taken care

of this anonymous grave.

But the old woman felt so bad

that she wanted to confess it,
so she could die in peace.

She wanted the bones to be

buried in the
concentration camp cemetery

and for the relatives to be informed.

What did you do?

Nothing.

Some things have to be
endured in silence.

Even if it's hard.

That is also a way of reconciliation.

Lord, forgive Xaver.

You gave him a tough life.

He was just a poor man.

Give him the peace
he could not find here.

Amen.

Amen.

Amen.

Well then.

Miss Grimm,

You can't believe how sorry
I am about all that

has happened to you here.

If there is anything I can do...

Where is that?

In the Doost.

In the Doost?

Such a huge nettle field
in nitrogen poor soil?

Someone should have noticed this
a long time ago.

Yes. But who would ever think of that.

That's true.

Have a safe trip.

Good bye.

Soil disturbance in the Haingries,

at same location as nettle field,
before creation of the wild meadow.

'Fairy tale forest with tree top path'

A beer, please.

The bill.

I'll take it.

Thanks.

Good night then.

Did I do something wrong?

Nobody said that.

Maybe he thought now
she's coming back

to find out what I have done.

But why killing Anna, then?

Otherwise, he didn't need
a reason to kill my father.

So it does make sense again,
doesn't it?

I've got to go, Anja.

You have to build you
fairy tale forest.

How about a gingerbread house?

Hansel and Gretel in the Leybach Farm.

Do you know the story?

Sure.

I mean the real story.

That was a pretty antisocial family.

Who's abandoning their children
in a forest, during a famine.

But these kids weren't normal either.
They were petty criminals.

Did they knock on the door
to ask for help?

They broke into the house right away.

The old woman understood immediately.

And locked up the boy.

I would have done the same.

The girl was just as depraved.

So she frees him,

they beat the woman to death,

rob her, burn the body

and return home with rich loot.

The parents have no problem believing

the outrageous story
about the wicked witch.

And neither do we.

Our favorite fairy tale
is nothing but a disgusting,

over sugared pogrom story.

It's ingrained deeply Rupert.

We don't even hear the screams
of that burning woman.

What do you want?

Good luck with your
fairy tale forest, Rupert.

The transport route
at the Haingries leads

from the high seat at the wild meadow,

deeper and deeper
into the Leybach forest.

Watch post for operational team.
I am in position.

Operational team to watch post:
On schedule. Confirm.

Watch post for operational team:
Confirm. Over.

Less plasticizer!

Anja!

No.

Stop!

So that's how it is.

Holy Mary!
Gustav!

It is for the likes of you

we've done all that.

Gustav!

It's over.

Over.

Father, stop it, please!

When the Nazis disbanded
the concentration camps,

shortly before the end
of the war in 1945,

thousands of prisoners perished
on death marches across Bavaria

Their murderers were German soldiers

who had orders to cover up traces.

Civilians from the surrounding
villages participated

in the murders and tried
to cover up their deeds

for a long time after the war.

Bones are still found in the
Upper Palatinate to this day.
