It has been 20 years since
the second world war ended...

with the failure of the
allied invasion of Normandy.

A triumphant Hitler declared victory
over Europe and the British Empire.

The United States withdrew
from the conflict...

listening to those
like Charles Lindberg...

who had argued against a war
with Germany.

In the east, only the Russians fought on
in a bitter guerrilla war.

American efforts turned to
retribution for Pearl Harbor.

That came in the summer of 1945
with victory over Japan.

By then, American
General Einsenhower had

returned from Europe to
the United States...

in a humiliating retirement.

In 1947, King Edward and Queen Wallis
assumed the British throne.

Winston Churchill, who had barely
escaped with his life after Normandy...

died in exile in Canada
in May, 1953.

In the years after the war...

country after country of the old Europe...

had become part of the vast
Nazi Empire of Germania.

The Führer's architect, Albert Speer,
built a monument to the 1000 year Reich.

Germania's capital, Berlin,
became a Nazi showplace.

The SS became a peace-time police force...
patrolling clean and orderly streets.

As the 50's came to a close...

Hitler was able to put a more
civilized face on the Greater Reich.

But news continued to
be tightly controlled.

The 60's began with the war with the
Soviet Union still dragging on.

Hitler desperately needed to conclude a
formal peace with the United States

and forge an alliance
against the Russians...

still led by the 85 year old Joseph Stalin.

Hitler saw signs for hope in late 1960...

with the election of a new
president of the United States.

The Führer believed with President
Joseph Kennedy Senior in office...

at last there was someone with
whom a deal could be struck.

Now, in 1964, for the
first time in 20 years.

Germania's borders are
opening to the Americans.

The world press has been
invited to cover the

Führer's birthday celebration,
on April 20th.

There are rumors that
President Kennedy will attend...

a Germanian-American summit conference.

An alliance with America would assure
Germania's invulnerability.

But there are other, more persistent
rumors that could threaten Hitler's plans.

There were stories that something terrible
happened in Germany during the war.

That the official Nazi
story, that Jews and other

minorities had been
relocated to the east...

wasn't true.

There are also rumors that in the Greater
Reich terrible things are still happening.

Televison, radio and
newspapers are all controlled

by the powerful Ministry of Information.

Nobody, in the New Berlin, dares
to ask awkward questions.

Push.

Let's get out of here.

Yes, March.
- Good morning, March.

There's a body in the park, by the lake,
about 500 meters from the main road.

Meet Eisler there.
- It's Sunday, my son's here.

I know it's Sunday, but you're on standby
and there's no-one else.

Alright.

further North, morale among our forces
is high and Eastern Army command

is anticipating a complete
collapse of remaining

Russian military
forces within a month.

But the big news today
is the preparation for

the Führer's 75th birthday,
in four days time.

Papa... Do you think we
could visit America soon? Why?

Well... I'd like to spend
more time with you, really.

I'd like that too.

Maybe you should ask your mother
when you go home, nicely.

I have and she already said yes.

Did she?

No, but she should have.

Come and help me.

Thank you.

Führer, my Führer bequeathed
to me by the Lord...

protect and preserve me as long as
I live. Thou hast rescued Germany...

-Pili...

Do you remember you used to say grace...

when your mother and I were together?

No.

Want to try it.

Okay?
Okay.

For what we are about to receive.

For what we are about to receive.

May the Lord make us truly thankful.

May the Lord make us truly thankful.

Amen.

Amen.

Thank you.

Heil Hitler.
- Heil Hitler.

When was the body discovered?
- An hour ago, sir.

Hermann Jost, an SS cadet from the Sep
Dietrich Academy, on his morning run.

Here is his statement. -Thank you. Sir.
Morning Dr. Eisler.

Guten morning, Major. Where's Jäger?
- I wish I knew.

A great partnership you fellows have.

Enjoying the weather?
- It was a lot colder at Stalingrad.

Give me a closeup of the face.

He obviously wasn't out running.

An old amputation.
Rather well done!

-Very good indeed.
I'm very happy for him.

Did he drown?
- Well, they pulled him out of the lake...

but, ask me after the autopsy.

Time of death?

There's early rigor, but the water
is very cold. It's difficult to tell.

"Ask me after the autopsy."

Where did you find him?
In the water... just behind the rock.

Nice start... Sunday.

Heil Hitler. Heil Hitler.

-Greater Reich Tourism welcomes you to
Tempelhof International Airport.

I am Helga Schröder, your guide.

On behalf of the Ministry
of Culture and Education...

I would like to welcome you... journalists
from the Americas... to Berlin...

Capital of the Greater German Reich.

We hope you will have
a pleasant stay with us.

I used to cover Berlin
for CBS before the war.

I never thought I'd ever get back.

Neither did I.

Reich Tourism will handle any and
all of your needs while you are here.

- You've been here before?
- I was born here.

I left when I was little.

My mother was German.
She met my father before the war.

Maguire

I knew a Paul McGuire here... diplomat.
- He was my father.

You're kidding?

I'm Walter Elliot, CBS.
- I know who you are.

no reason why the Stars and Stripes...

United States in peace and friendship.
It is the wish of the Fuhrer...

we have nothing to hide...

and have many achievements
we wish to share with you

Please, do not lose your press
accreditation. Without it you will not be

admitted to the many press functions that
have been arranged for your benefit.

So please, if you need anything,
do not be afraid to ask.

Guided tours of the city are
available to our guests.

We recommend you visit the Victory Arch and
the Albert Speer exhibition during your stay.

The war ended a long time ago.

We are asking that you give
us a chance to show you how...

sincere we are in wanting to
bring the Cold War to a close, too.

Isn't that what everybody wants?

Heil Hitler.
Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler.

Xavier.

I'm sorry I didn't make it this morning.
Thanks for coming aboard.

It's quite alright...

- Is Hans sick again?
- Yes, I sat up all night with him.

- Coffee?
- Thanks.

It's nothing serious, I hope.
No, no... nothing serious, not really...

Two expressos, please.

Next time you need sleep in,
count on me.

Another busy day for
sexual crimes unit?

Who are the lovebirds? Pure Ayrian woman
and Polack caught right in the act.

Coffee please.

Re-settlement State for her...
10 years hard labor for him.

I just don't understand these people.

Everytime somebody makes love,
somebody else writes a report.

Yeah... that's right

Some sugar!
- Yes.

Xavie, they've got something
in there for everybody.

Anytime you are looking for
something out of the ordinary...

you let me know.

Excuse me.

Führer promises
peace and prosperity

Here, I'll capture the moment for you.

Okay, good

Great.

You will need a permit
for the camera, Mr. Elliot.

-Oh.
I can arrange it for you, if you like.

Through Reichs Tourism...
all developing and prints are free.

Fine. Thanks.

Thanks.
Here you go.

Please! The coach will leave for Reich Minister
Goebbels' press conference in one hour.

That'll be a load of laughs.
- So please be prompt...

and don't forget your press kit
Mr. Elliot.

Your key, Miss McGuire. Your'e in room 75.
Enjoy your stay in Berlin. -Thanks.

I read your works, Mr. Elliot

but I think, maybe, this will
help you be a bit more accurate...

Fraulein Maguire?

You dropped this, I think.

No, I don't think so.
I think you did.

There was a lot of water in the lungs,
which were swollen... balloon-like...

and a watery, foaming fluid
came out when pressed.

So, he could have drowned.

But, he has also suffered
a massive coronary.

Hard to say which came first.

Extensive bruising on the
upper part of the body...

Bruising?

He must have struggled
to get out of the water.

Probably in the water less than two hours.

Thank you.

Josef Bühler.

Architect of the Jewish
re-settlement programme.

Admitted to excesses in
work camps during the war.

In the 1950's...

he...

introduced...

reforms of the camp system.

He was a close friend
of Hitler in the 1920's.

Connections in every
department of the Reich.

Forced retirement in 1961...

After allegations of
improper use of state property.

I remember... Hitler intervened
personally on his behalf.

Well that's great, isn't it?

A dead party big shot.

Think of the paper work.

Thank you.

Walter Stuckhart, 45, Josef Strasse.

Please go to this address and ask Herr
Stuckhart, where it all began. Franz Luther

Franz Luther.

Xavier March,
to inspect the Bühler residence.

the Führer today issued and invitation to
the President of the United States of America...

to visit Reich
for personal discussions...

Thank you

allowing greater
understanding between our two...

For a true comrade, Adolf Hitler.
April, '49.

Bühler?

Yes?

Heil Hitler.

I swear to Adolf Hitler as
Fuhrer and Chancellor of the German Reich.

Loyalty and bravery.

I vow to thee and to the superiors
whom thou shalt appoint...

obedience until to death

so help me God.

Jost... stay here.

The others ...! Dismissed!

You resemble your mother.
We went to school together.

Do you like gymnastics?

It is part of my training.

How long have you been a cadet?

Three months Major.

Is your father proud of you? He is a
founding member of the SS, isn't he?

We all follow our fathers.

We try... as best we can.

I've read your statement
about the incident.

You've been very helpful.

Relax.

One thing...

You couldn't have seen a
body from where you said you were.

I checked.
So I was wondering...

What you see...
What made you stop?

A car...

three men.

Nothing else?

No... nothing.

Then what are you afraid of?

Did you recognize someone?

Tell me.

You'll feel better.

At the beginning of term,
we had a special guest.

He lectured on the organization of
police forces in the Reich.

I was part of the honor guard.

I was this far from him.

It was him at the lake. I know it was.

So... who was it?

It was the general in
command of the Gestapo.

Globus?

Can you keep a secret?

Good!

45 Josef Strasse.

Holidays in Greater Germany
Madrid, Vienna

Caretaker.

Heil Hitler.
- Yeah.

I'm here to see Herr Stuckhart.

You are American?
- That's right.

Are you here on business?

Herr Stuckhart?

You'll find him on the second floor.

Apartment 7.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Herr Stuckhart?

Oh my God.

Hi, sorry I'm late.

Well, don't worry.
- Thank you.

(Adolf Hitler to meet J. Kennedy.)

That's good news.

About the Kennedy-Hitler meeting.

General Nebe, wanted to see me.

Ah, Major March,
General Nebe is expecting you sir.

Please, go straight in.

Xavier... come.

This time next year we could be
vacationing on a beach in Miami...

or California.
- Not on my salary, General.

We need the Americans.

Without their cooperation, the war
in Russia could go on for years.

I thought we were making progress

Like last year, or the year before it?
Switch it off.

That's my eldest grandchild.

A very nice... boy.

How's that boy of yours doing?

He's doing very well.
Thank you.

I... wish I could live with me.

Hmm.

- Are you covering the Bühler case?
- Er, yes sir.

Not any more.

This case has been re-designated
a state security matter.

Gestapo... have taken
over the investigation.

Police enquiries to be closed.

Effective immediately!

I do have a sighting of General Globus
at exactly the location where...

Bühler's body was found.
- Sir.

-Globus
-Yes, sir.

Really?
- Head of the Gestapo.

Walter Stuckhart... was found
shot dead with a whore this morning.

Shh... Stuckhart!
- Party member from the beginning

Wrote the... definitive textbooks
on the race question...

Retired 3 years ago from the
Interior Ministry.

I suppose that must be...
a matter for the Gestapo as well.

Not the Stuckhart case.

Not yet.

Why don't you dig...
just a little further?

See if there's a connection
between the deaths.

Do we have anything...
on the Stuckhart case?

Ah... there is the... American...
who found him...

One of the visiting journalists.

She had an appointment with him.

We're holding her. Talk to her.

Find out what Globus is up to.

Nothing in writing.
Report direct to me.

Yes, sir.

Sorry I kept you waiting.

Xavier March, this won't take long.

In your statement it says you wanted
to interview Herr Stuckhart.

Yes. He was a founding member of
the party and...

my editor wanted his reaction
to the Kennedy-Hitler meeting.

The Cold War is about to end.
Isn't that wonderful?

Of course.
And that was at 10:45?

Very well.

Oohh... I can go now? Yes.

Er... no. Not yet.

Follow me please.

So, would somebody like to tell
me when I get my passport back?

When we don't need it anymore.

You've been to Germany before?

-No, not since I was a little girl.

Nice rebuilding job!

You are from New York?

Xavier saw a lot of New York
in the war, didn't you Xavi?

Through a periscope, hunting
North Atlantic convoys.

Yes.
Well... the war's over. We're allies now.

Sure, but we know how many people died.
- Your raid on Dresden killed 100,000 people.

You threatened to drop the
atom bomb on Great Britain.

- You dropped it on Japan, twice.
- Yeah, but we we fighting for our lives!

So were we.

Oh... Cute.

It's, er, for my son.
We go sailing together.

Uh, huh.
On the lake in the Tiergarten.

The young cadet... Jost.

I want you to pick him up and
put him in protective custody.

Discreetly?
Yes! Please.

Understood.

And if you decide to, er, sleep in Xavi,
I'll cover for you.

Heil Hitler.

We need to see
Herr Stuckhart's apartment.

But Gestapo have
sealed it, Major.

I know, but I have to see it.

But they gave strict instructions
that no-one was to be admitted.

Key, please.

Excuse me.

Herr Stuckart live alone?

Herr Stuckart was most discreet,
but never lonely.

This way.

Had he lived here long?
As long as I've been the night porter.

9 years.

Who's in during the day?

Nobody!

Heil Hitler.

That wasn't the man who
let me in this morning.

You didn't mention man
in your statement.

I didn't think anything of it.
I thought he was the porter.

Why have you brought me here?

I wanted to have a word with you.

So you brought me all the way here
just to have a word with me?

In private!

You lied to me at the station
Why?

I didn't lie to you at the station.
Why did you not see this man?

I told you.

I wanted to interview him about
the Hitler-Kennedy meeting.

And it's all my statement.

You came there at 10:45.

The meeting was announced at
11:30, at a press conference.

You couldn't have known about it.

You have to get out.
Get out!

Take the stairs.
Quickly.

Wait.

This way.
Take the second elevator.

Please, mind your own business.

What are you doing here?
We sealed this apartment.

I'm an officer of the SS.
Engaged on official duties.

Where is American woman?
And what was she doing here?

It's been a very long day.
Excuse me.

By the way, you double parked,
you might get a ticket.

You're out of your depth, March!

Heil Hitler.

Thank you.

Yes?

-You can see almost everything
from here, can't you Nebe?

What do you want, Globus?

I want to... broaden your horizons.

We need to talk.

Heil Hitler.

Good morning, sir.
- Good morning, Xavi.

The Gestapo beat us on this one.
Let me show you what we missed.

It will explain everything.

Close the door.

Now here we have Kaiser Ferdinand III, by Delois...
Jan Christian Hagenberg by George Heydrich...

Otto Schwarzenberg, by Hans Felachen...

and there are at least 35
other well known paintings.

Imagine Bühler sitting here, door locked...

like a dirty old man in a brothel.

Well they are very lovely paintings, sir.
- As State Secretary in Poland...

Bühler had access to everything.

He shipped the stuff back to
Stuckart at the Interior Ministry.

And Globus' men are now looking for
Franz Luther of the Foreign Ministry.

His position gave him the opportunity
to travel abroad...

and once or twice a year
until last week...

he smuggled most of the
artwork into Switzerland.

Er, excepting Bühler's
rare, souvenir collection.

At some point last week, the three
of them realized the Gestapo...

were closing in, two
suicides, Bühler and Stuckart.

And there's no doubt a third. When
Luther realized this, there's no way out.

I... understand...

this is now in the
hands of the Gestapo.

On the direct orders of Reich
Minister Heydrich, himself.

Well... that's it then.

-Yes... it is.

I found Herr Bühler's
prosthetic leg in his closet.

So I don't quite understand why he would hop
all the way down to the lake on one leg...

to commit suicide.

This is a matter of state security.

You're a good promotion prospect, Xavi.
Leave this alone... you could go far.

You can't afford to make
an enemy of Globus...

or of me.

Yes, sir.

Wait!

I think it's time to go home.

Heil. Heil Hitler.
- Hello Heinz

Let's get something.
Something warm.

I want cake.

Excuse me?
I want a big cake.

One big cake and... one hot chocolate...

-Please.

Happy?
Mmm.

Who is JC?

I do not know.

Where'd you get it?

-It was given to me...

for loyal services
to the fatherland after the war.

Who by?

- Er...
- The commander in chief of the Navy, Doenitz...

You think I could have it?

Ooh, I er...

You can keep it for a while.

Can I keep it forever?

Yes, you can.

I think it's cruel to let them
grow up this way, don't you?

What do you mean?

Because he's crippled and he's
never going to get better.

Well... what would you like to do?

-Well... I thought they should
put him to sleep like we do.

Who told you this nonsense?

-A lot of people.
My teachers, my friends...

Mum even.

Let me tell you a story...
about a clockmaker

He was over a hundred years old.
Wrinkled face, his hair was white as snow.

He'd worked all his life hunched
over clocks like this...

So... he was a hunchback.

People thought he was ugly.
People of the village.

And they used to call him names.

So, he lived on top of the
mountain with all his clocks

And he worked day and night

While he was working all the time, he
didn't notice that the hunch on his back...

-started to grow,
bigger and bigger.

And one day...

-when he went out for a walk...

-his nose almost touched the ground.

That's how big it was.

That same night, he was working,
working away on his little clocks...

-they suddenly stopped ticking.

And he looked up... and he saw... in the mirror...
two little... feathers coming out of his coat.

And they started growing... they
were white, and he looked in the mirror...

- and he saw that he
had these two big wings...

-and all the clocks started singing.

- and he opened the window, looked at
the stars, and flew up into the sky.

Then what happened to him?

He became an angel.

Will that happen to him?
- Well...

We can't kill angels, can we?

No

It's time to go home.

Release the young cadet,
the case is closed.

Well that's just as well...
because he's dead

When?

Last night.

-How?

He was training at the gym.

He fell and broke his neck.

No witnesses?
- No witnesses.

The instructor said
he loved gymnastics.

I want an autopsy.

On the left temporal lobe
a small deposit or contusion was found

On the right hand side of the thorax, in
line with the arm, two ribs were fractured.

Oh, and there was an interlayer hemorrhage
under the spinal column covers.

The, er, fracture of the spinal column
and bruising is consistent with a fall.

In my opinion, the death was caused by
inhalation of blood into the lungs.

If help had come, who knows, it may
have been possible to revive him.

Before the Second World War, Joe Kennedy had
been an exponent of appeasement with Germany.

Isn't this initiative an extension of
his long held beliefs?

Joe Kennedy, as private citizen, was never
shy about expressing his concerns...

- about U.S. involvement in what was,
at that time, a European conflict.

Obviously, once the United
States was attacked, it had

to respond and Joe Kennedy's
views didn't support it.

-This initiative is an effort
to stabilize relations...

Fraulein McGuire?
This is Reich Tourism.

Good morning.
- Excuse me?

Reich Tourism. I have the arrangements
for your sightseeing trip.

Er, there must be some mistake.

-We spoke yesterday about the sailing trip.

Oh, well what makes you
think I'm still interested?

I think you are.

but the United States
cannot live in isolation...

put the past behind us and try to forge a
future of peace for all peoples of the world.

- You only want the one chestnut?
- Both.

Are you happy?
- Yes.

Here.

Darling...
- You're late.

I know.
- I've been waiting for half an hour...

I'm so sorry, go ahead.

I couldn't do anything, I had
more work. Thanks

Reich Tourism?
What is this?

I have a simple proposition.
I'll give you back your passport...

If you tell me your little... secret.

Er, well, why should I do that?

-You stumbled into
something quite delicate.

You don't know this country.
- No, but I'm staying.

I know that there's a story here.

-It's a matter of
state security now.

Hitler and Kennedy are about to make news.
I'm gonna to cover it.

No, I have... a simple proposition for you.

I give you my lead.
We both follow it.

Come on. You're not supposed
to be here, are you?

I mean, those guys last night...
they were Gestapo, weren't they?

They followed you.

Or I could go to the Gestapo,
I could tell them about our little meeting.

I'm sure they'd be interested.

You have no idea what
might happen to you, do you?

Alright.
Here.

I was given it by a man at the hotel.
Never seen him before.

These people don't mean anything to me.

Huh!

I thought you were a cop.

The building does.

It looks shabbier in the photograph.

Good afternoon, welcome to Wannsee.
You are visiting someone?

Yes, we're making some enquiries.

You're a policeman.
What is this place?

The House of the Blind.

A hundred thousand glorious German dead
or missing on the Russian front.

Cheer now for twenty years
twice as many wounded

A hundred thousand, are you sure?
- It's true.

If you can't see it, you must
be blinder than I am.

What was the name of your unit?

Good morning, Major, Fraulein.

Franz Kruegger. I'm the administrator.

Please, can we talk in my office?

- Of course.
- Follow me.

This is a very beautiful building you have.
Has it always been a home for the blind?

Since the end of the war.
- During the war?

During the war? You know who sat
in my chair during the war?

No.
- Reichmarshal Heydrich himself.

Really? Uh-huh.
What was he doing here?

Don't know.
It was all kept very secret.

Now where?
- The Reich Archive Fund...

50 million files on every
aspect of the party history.

Do you have a moment?

Xavier!

Hello.

Hello Anna. You haven't changed a bit.

Don't say that unless you mean it.

I mean it.

How's Pili? He still stuffing
with pastries every weekend?

Yes.
- I'll need six copies of that. Thank you.

He's a sweet boy
-Yes, he is.

When do you think this was taken?

Early in the war.

I'll take a guess.

Late '41, 1942

Before the really big raids. You see
there isn't any blast tape on the windows.

Now this was a meeting of some sort?

Yes.

Why?

Xavi! How many meetings do you think
there were during the war?

Late '41, early '42...
Wannsee?

This is a letter, January 6th, Heydrich...

confirming that the inter-agency
discussions at Wannsee...

followed by a lunch, originally
scheduled for December 9th, 1941...

had been postponed til January20th, 1942.

-Who was the letter circulated to?

Bühler, Eichmann, Freisler,
Hoffman, Klopfer, Kritzinger,

Lange, Leibrandt, Luther, Meyer,
Müller, Neumann, Schöngarth, Stuckart

That's it?

Yeah, that's it.

Anna, excuse me.

Who are these people?,
I know this is Stuckart.

This is Bühler?
- Yeah, that's Bühler.

That's Hoffman, transport.

This man?
- Lynn, munitions!

A serious meeting?
- Yeah.

What the ...?

They're all dead.

I want nothing more to do with this.

Please, go!

Get out of Berlin tonight.

Why?
- It's too dangerous, I don't like it.

But what about our deal?
- The deal's off!

This goes to the highest level of
the Reich, to... Heydrich himself.

What are you saying? What did they tell you there?
- Everyone in the photograph has been murdered.

Except one, Franz Luther.
They were all high party members.

Get out of Germany
before it is too late.

And don't try and be clever,
You will be followed.

Tour guides report directly to the Gestapo.

Please... go home.

These were delivered for you, madam.
- Thank you.

Shall I order you a taxi for the airport?

Humboldthain Station, Platform 9.
Take any local train, Luther.

Yes... thank you.

Districts D, K and Z, all units alert!
Humboldthain station...

All units? For a 65 year old art smuggler?

What do you want from me?
I want to...

I want to desert. You will arrange
this through the American embassy.

Why should I do that?
- I have a story that will make you famous.

The biggest secret of the war.
Thousands have been killed to protect it.

- So what is it?
- A terrible crime was committed...

Since then, everyone with direct knowledge
of it has been quietly killed by the Gestapo.

Only I am left. I have proof of what
happened, documents...

papers, photographs, signed orders. They
are the price of my admission to the States.

You will get your embassy to arrange
transportation out of the country for two people.

You will need this to
prepare our travel papers.

Nothing will be the same again.

Not for you, not for anybody.

Come on, Jäger.

It must be arranged today.
Where will I meet you?

I'll contact you.
Hey, hey you!

Stop!
- Franz Luther, male, 5ft 9inches,

Stop him!
- A 185 pounds, aged 60.

Come back here!
- A thousand marks for... information.

There he is!

Don't shoot.

What are you doing here?
Come with me.

Why aren't you on that plane?
- Luther called me. What would you have done?

I'm taking you to the airport where
you should have gone this morning.

-Get in.
Why'd they kill him?

Why are they killing everybody?
- Why don't you just shut up, for once!

Yes of course.

I'll deal with it later.

Goodnight!!

-Globus.

-I wanted him alive.

Luther.

What were my men supposed to do?

You were being fired on.

Innocent people were being killed.
- We needed Luther for questioning.

Why?

The man was just a common criminal.

Wasn't he?

A woman was sitting
next to Luther in the train.

He was seen giving her... an envelope.

Was it the American March took to
Stuckhart's apartment?

I really don't know.

Why did March release the American?

-There were no evidence against her.

Evidence?

Times are changing, Globus.

This is the age of detente.

If there's anything else we
can do to help the Gestapo...

of course, let us know.

Oh, yeah!

Yes, I'll let you know.

So, what are we going to do?

I'll let your embassy know where you are.

What?

I'm placing you under arrest.
Why?

When they question you,
keep your answers short and consistent.

Consistent with what?
- The truth, try it for once.

You'll be a lot safer in SS custody.
- Bullshit.

Bullshit, you're scared if you don't turn me
in you're gonna die. Well you will anyway.

Luther told me that they killed thousands
to protect the biggest secret of the war.

Look!

He gave me these.

They wanted the American Embassy
to arrange travel documents.

Who's that woman?

Maybe his wife.

Well, if that's his wife...

Who is this?
.

I don't know.

Come in!

Please sit down.

Thank you for calling us.

What exactly did Major March
ask you to find for him?

Well... you have to understand, that he's a policeman,
and I was trying to help him with his investigation...

Of course... you were trying to help.

Yes! So, when he came to my office...
- You didn't know him before he came to see you?

I knew him slightly. Not terribly well.

-Not terribly well?

No!

Are you in the habit of sleeping with
people you don't know... terribly well?

Go and see mummy.

Max Jäger?

Yes, what do you want?

-We're looking for Xavier March.

I do not know where he is.

Do you mind if, er... we continue this somewhere else?
- Of course not.

Good evening, Gunther.
- Good evening, Xavi.

I... want you to pull a file for me.

You're not a friend to have right now.
Get out of the car.

I was thinking of asking
Internal Affairs...

to all of the records of
the sexual crimes unit.

I understand they will find a lot
missing... photographs, magazines, films...

very interesting material,
including child pornography.

Whose file do you want?
- Franz Luther.

Luther for God sakes Xavi?
- Get it!

I'll get it for you tomorrow.

Happily married for 40 years...

one serious affair
between 1948 and 1950.

it was ended because of
pressure from von Ribbentrop.

See? Same woman.
- Anna von Hagen, the actress.

She's expecting an American.

-Okay.

Yeah?
- Anna von Hagen?

Who is it?
- Herr Minister Luther sent me.

From the American Embassy?
- Yes.

So, we are leaving now, huh?
It is all arranged?

Yes, er... all arranged.

Where is Franz?
Why is he not here?

He's still at the embassy.
He's making the final arrangements.

He... sent me to pick up the papers.

He said if anybody came asking...
I should destroy them.

Yes, well, he told me that too.
But the embassy needs the

papers before they can give you...
the travel documents.

Ahh!

Franz says he's looking forward to sending
von Ribbentrop, a postcard from New York...

A very rude one.

He loved me... as much as I loved him.

We decided for the sake of the party
and the Führer...

that he would remain married...
and we would... meet each other secretly.

It was a sacrifice.

Huh!

But when one thinks of the
sacrifices that some have made...

Huh!

So, we'll, um, ...we'll send a car
for you... in a couple of hours.

America.

Franz says you still have them in America.
You didn't do anything about them?

All that may change of course...

now you have a president
who thinks like the Führer does.

It was a real problem for me...
making a career in Hollywood.

Why?
- Jews.

They controlled all the studios, you know?

They even tried to keep
'em out of Broadway.

But the public wanted me, you see.

Then they started the war.

Berlin was beautiful before the war.

The only thing that
spoiled it, was the Jews!

I have no career left.

But I would like to go to
America, just to upset the Jews.

So what do you think?

Did you finally do something about
your Jews as we did with ours?

What did you do?

We put them in cattle cars
and shipped them East.

Always East.

To the Ukraine, you mean to the, er...
the re-settlement camps?

Ja, to re-settle them... in the air.

- Excuse me?
- To turn them into smoke.

They burned the bodies after they gassed them,
they had to... but nobody would ever know.

At first, it was a bullet each...

But a child takes as big a bullet
as a grown man or woman...

and at the height of the war we needed
those 6 million bullets we saved.

So, er...
6, 7 million Jews...

and then the bullets... for
Gypsies, the lunatics, the cripples.

So all the Jews were killed?
There was no re-settlement?

My dear...

I hardly think that after the war there were
enough left alive to re-settle a half acre.

He was a clever man, Heydrich.

One authentic genius after
the Führer himself.

Oh no!

Stuckart was a genius too in his way.

He had an entire Reich ministry employed in
correspondence with all those Jews in America...

who wanted to know
what happened to their relatives.

A postcard every year, saying:
"We are well, we are being taken care of."

But with the fighting on the Russian
front, they couldn't check, could they?

And people get tired asking questions
when they don't get any answers.

The children want to get
on with their own lives.

The war was over.
The Jews were gone.

They were...

up in smoke.

And in two generations time...
who will care enough to ask?

Well, I should...
I should... be going.

You said the car would
be here in two hours?

Yes.
I'll be ready, I'll be waiting.

See you later.

Charlie.

Charlie... wait!

What the hell's going on?

Charlie.

What did she say?
- They killed all the Jews.

That's Luther's secret.
- We re-settled them.

We gave them...
their own piece of land.

Xavi, look at these.

These are forgeries.

Forgeries?
- That must be.

So Luther, and... Stuckart and Bühler they
were... they were killed for forgeries?

Do you want this to be true?
Do you think it's a good story?

It is true!

Look at them!

You agreed to follow my
lead wherever it took us.

Its brought us here.

We can't go back.

You knew.
- I was at sea during the war.

What does... "Necessity of...

of removing biological basis for Judaism
once and for all", mean?

What does "Final Solution" mean?

- I do not know.

This is a rail timetable.

"One train one day, 60 persons
per car, 60 cars per train"

that's 25,000 people a week.

What happened at... er... Auschwitz and Belzen?
- I can't believe this.

What was Zyklon-B?
- I do not know Charlie.

It's gas.
They killed them with gas.

Gas.

You took everything they owned.
You gave them as gifts, to your troops.

Jewelry... fountain pens... watches.

After the war, I beleived...
what everybody else believed.

No reason not to.

I'm a loyal son of the Fatherland.

I served murderers of my life.

How do I explain it to my son?

They met at Wannsee
to plan the final solution.

They killed an entire people.

Luther and others, they were killed because
they were the final link to Wannsee.

They were the final... obstacle to detente.

Hitler needed them killed... before
the meeting with Kennedy. - Charlie.

If your... government... knew...
would Kennedy still meet with Hitler?

I don't know.

You need to get these documents
to your ambassador right away.

As long as Kennedy is here, they won't touch
him. Do it quickly, and then you should leave.

How do I tell my son I served
murderers all my life?

How do I explain... this was not a
glorious war for national survival...

It's Germany's.

You have to come with me Xavi.

I cannot, it is my country.
- No it isn't... not anymore.

I, can't leave my son.

- Well, bring him too!

I won't go without you.

I mean it.
Meet me at the park tonight.

I'll find a way to get these
to Kennedy... I promise.

Children of the Fatherland...

Today you will be asked to renew your
vows to the Fuhrer and to the Reich...

A few moments ago, Air Force One carrying
President Joseph Kennedy and his wife Rose...

touched down at Tempelhof
International airport.

looking relaxed and cheerful, President
Joseph Kennedy was met at the airport...

Hello?
- Yes Clara, it's Xavi.

Can I... speak to you alone?
- What's it about?

my apartment.
Why can't you come here?

I'd rather not argue in front of Pili.
It's urgent.

OK. OK, I'm on my way.
- Thank you.

Papa.
- Hello son.

Close the door.
- What are you doing here?

Mom's just gone out.

I wanted a word with you
alone, without a mother.

Come here... now. Are you not well?
- No, I'm fine.

Open your mouth.
Show me your tongue. Alright.

Now, you remember we talked about America?
- Yeah.

Do you still want to
come to America with me?

When?
- Now... right now.

What about mom?
- Just you and me, Pili. We...

have to explain it to her later.

How long will we be gone? A long time?
- Yes, quite a long time.

Okay then.

Okay, yeah?
- Yes.

Excuse me, but you have no badge.

Oh, er, I'm press.
- Fräulein, you can not go in there.

Wh... what why?
- Because you have no badge.

O .. Oh yeah, my ba..., my badge fell off.
- I'm sorry.

I have a badge, but I should be
on a list, er... Charlotte McGuire.

Fräulein McGuire, your name
is no longer on the list.

- Yeah, but... you... you know who I am.

It is alright, she belongs to the group.

Yeah? Thanks.

yeah, we're looking to see
if in about an hour or less...

Elliot, I've been looking all over for you.
- Hi Charlie, sit down. How are you?

Listen, we have no time.
You gotta take a look at these.

You gotta help me. You're the only one
who can get this to this president.

Are you coming?

Change your mind?

We'll fly to New York...
find a place to live.

Maybe we can even live on a boat.
You'd like that, don't you?

Yes.

Alright... then tell
me... what bothers you.

I need to know.
- You're sick.

Sick.
What are you talking about?

The Gestapo told me.
- Gestapo?

What do you mean?
- They want to help you.

Did you tell 'em?
- I phoned them.

They lie.

I lied to you.

Listen... son, you're a big man.

Now, you need to learn
to think for yourself.

Wait here! Don't move!

Bastard!

Come on Charlie...

I see him. There he is.

Charlie, you go on in.
- Please let us through.

Mr. President... Mr. Ambassador, you...
Mr. Ambassador, you...

Mr. Ambassador, you've got to see these.

Mr. Ambassador, stop the car. Stop the car.

You've got to look at these... You've got
to show them... You've got to show them...

Mr. Ambassador, Mr Ambassador,
look at these pictures.

Mr. Ambassador.
You've got to show them to the president.

Attention... Attention.

Because of the Bolshevik bomb threats
these celebrations are hereby canceled.

President Kennedy is returning
to America immediately...

and takes with him the good
wishes of the German people.

Dear boy... hurry up, please.

Son... listen to me.

It wasn't your fault.

Don't believe them.

You gotta... grow your own wings...
- Papa!

- Where are you?
- Grow...

- Papa!
- Grow your own wings...

Papa...

I used to wonder why she never got
out... while she had the chance.

But she and my father were the first
to see those images of horror...

the first to know...

and that somehow linked them
forever with each other...

and the victims.

So she sat on... until
the Gestapo came for her.

Everything has changed.

Without the American alliance
Hitler's Reich collapsed.

Of course, there are some
who say it never happened.

Those who look...
and do not see.

The years since have been difficult ones...

but my father would be
proud to know...

that no longer are we all living
in the house of the blind.

Think I could have it?

Oh yeah... You can keep it for a while.

Can I keep it forever?

Yes, you can.

Perhaps we all do want
to follow our fathers.

I would be very proud to follow mine...

OUR CHILDREN
OUR FUTURE
