The Round-Up

Pest-Buda.

The 1860s:

the industrial revolution, the era of enrichment,

of Ferenc Deák, Gyula Andrássy and Kálmán Tisza.

The spirit of 1848 has become a mere empty phrase.

The welfare of the bourgeoisie is all that matters.

The people live in the way they have for centuries.

The lean years that ensued

from the mid-1860s led to greater impoverishment.

Crime is on the rise,

as well as desperate attempts to break free from poverty.

The regime has no mercy.

Everywhere, it hunts down the wretched outlaws.

They are the last remnants of active resistance.

Criminals in the eyes of the officials,

but hailed as freedom fighters in folk songs.

In 1869, Count Gedeon Ráday

was appointed Commissary with special powers.

His task: to ensure security of property.

His primary target: the outlaws.

He was not particular in his methods.

- Is it them? - Yes.

- Your husband and your son? - Yes.

Please come with me.

Stop here.

Do you have any relatives?

Yes.

- Parents? - Yes.

Don't be surprised if they never see you again.

- I won't. - Won't you?

- No. - Why not?

You people never really liked my kind.

I speak four languages and I've often been abroad.

You smuggled in Kossuth's papers, in those days.

I was young.

Yes, you were young.

You may go now.

Stand in line!

Come on, faster!

Come on!

Faster!

You too!

Come on!

Faster.

Come on!

All is in order, sir.

Come on! To the back!

Bring them closer.

Come closer!

Stand here.

- Can you spot the villains? - Yes.

Which one?

- That one. - Any more?

And that one...

with the cape.

The short black cape?

Yes.

Let's go.

Are you János Gajdor?

That's me.

Come over here.

Are you a landowner?

Yes, I am. I own three farms.

You know how to get around?

That's what they say.

You're a clever man?

So they say.

Are there any renowned herdsmen

in your neighborhood?

There are.

Shepherds?

Those, too.

Who for instance?

The Kecsege Szűcs family,

the Ferde Balog and Kis Balog families...

- Kis Balog? - Yes.

Did you know the Kis Balogs?

I know them.

I didn't ask if you know them. I asked if you knew them.

I knew them.

Well, the Kis Balogs are dead.

They were strangled.

They were renowned shepherds.

Renowned and wealthy, too.

Wealthy.

Did they have quality sheep?

Yes.

A lot of their sheep vanished. Good sheep.

Do you know how they were strangled?

No. No, I don't.

With a halter. With this one.

Doesn't it look familiar?

- No. - Take it in your hand.

- Frightened of it? - No.

Seeing you've taken it, put it around your neck.

Men were killed with it. Not frightened of it?

- No. - Didn't you kill them?

No, no...

I don't kill people.

I always get around, but I don't kill people.

- You're not frightened, then. - No.

Then keep it around your neck and tie a bow.

I can do that.

Finished?

Yes.

Fine.

You may go. Take him away.

Please, stop.

Come here, János Gajdor.

Go inside.

I killed them.

Come on.

Do you know the penalty for killing them?

I do.

Ease your conscience.

Have you killed others apart from them?

Yes sir, I have.

But not many.

Who were they, what were they?

Would you tell me?

For your conscience and maybe your fate.

Well, I've killed...

three other people.

- Three? - Yes.

Gábor Telkes in '61...

Two years later, János Palkó Czeder...

Then, in '66...

No, in '67, Feri Csulak.

This Feri Csulak...

It's alright. We know who he was.

Maybe it doesn't count that I killed him.

Maybe.

I don't know.

So, János Gajdor...

there is a solution for you.

If you can find anyone

over there in the fort who is more guilty than you...

Someone who has killed more people...

then you'll be pardoned.

We won't hang you.

All you need to do is find such a man.

Understand?

Yes.

Will you do it?

Well...

I must.

All right. You may leave.

One, two, one, two...

Halt! Drop the rope. Follow me.

One, two...

Come here.

Open them again.

Good day.

That one is such a person.

Open up!

Out!

- Stand straight! - Leave him.

What's your name?

You know it. Varjú.

Of course. Béla. Béla Varjú.

I've beat you up nice and proper haven't I?

You're going back to the big yard, understand?

You can thank this man for it.

- Why? Don't you know him? - I know him.

Well? What did I say?

- Thank you. - Not like that, with respect.

Is that enough for you? If you want, he'll even kiss your hand.

Let's go.

You, too.

Come here.

Take off his shackles.

Go back to your friends.

Get going!

Any acquaintances?

At a time like this there are no friends or relatives.

I should have kissed your hand, János.

You mean, the Bishop's, my son.

You can't imagine what my lot was in there.

I couldn't have survived if you hadn't intervened.

I have a lot to thank you for.

How did you get here?

They caught me.

- Why weren't you careful? - They caught you, too.

- Did someone squeal? - Maybe.

Was there any evidence against you?

Or you were caught in the act?

You're not here for nothing.

What did you do?

They questioned me a lot and I said nothing.

Why are you inquiring?

Garibaldi's pretty little hat...

Do you still remember the old songs, Béla?

Leave me alone.

Stop! Come back from there.

They'll shoot you. Don't you understand?

Stand over there.

You come with me.

You... and you.

You.

No, you! Come, come here.

And you. Hurry up!

You.

You, too.

Come on, let's go.

You, too. Come with us.

Come on!

Put it down there. That's right, there.

And you, too. Over here.

Put it there.

You may go.

Go on, go on.

Come here.

Women, go further back. Still further.

Stop.

Stop!

Shoot in the air! Quickly!

Fire!

Wait here.

Come back.

If he doesn't stop, shoot!

Come on.

Béla Varjú. Pick two friends to escort you.

Ease your conscience, Béla.

Confess. How many did you kill?

Six people.

Who? Tell me, who!

- Six people. - The names. Say the names.

Kovács-Köves, Pista Kis, Kenyér...

- And? - Józsi Kenyér.

More, more. How about the others?

Their names! At least say their names!

Józsi Kenyér...

Excuse me, officer, sir.

Stand aside. Step back.

Demote him.

Take him away.

So.

Come.

Sir... please acquit me.

And save me from the gallows.

Because the man who was just executed

has killed more people.

When I walked with him to the gallows, he admitted to six.

Look here, János Gajdor...

It doesn't take a lot of brains

to relate the confession of a dead man.

It's your life that we're talking about.

If you could tell me exactly who he killed

then perhaps we could work something out.

The trouble is he only told me about three.

After that his strength gave out.

Then he started to get really scared.

Well, you see, János Gajdor, that doesn't help you at all.

It's as if you hadn't heard anything.

Just go back.

Go on.

Don't upset yourself. You have to get used to it.

We'll all be redeemed one day, one way or another.

Why don't you speak?

They're impossible and yet I'd have given them a farm.

They're hard as nails.

Haven't you tried them out?

They used to let you go. Three calves and I could go.

Another three and I could go.

Now they're tough.

Come on. Let's see our friends.

I'm not going anywhere.

Come. Let's walk around a bit.

I know you.

That's possible.

You've escorted me before.

You were one of many.

Aren't you from the lower farmlands?

No.

Are you from Szeged?

No.

They say I'm Veszelka.

Veszelka?

Yes, they say I'm him.

That I killed a gendarme and took his place.

Before, they said he was dead. Now they say I'm him.

Can you understand that?

No.

If I can't prove I'm not him, they'll hang me.

Yet this Veszelka has killed many.

At least seven.

Seven!

Then they'll let me go.

Seven!

- This man has killed seven... - Go to hell!

Come here.

Let's go.

Excuse me...

- I know you. - But I don't...

Get away from me!

- Sir... - Come on.

Stop here.

Yes.

Wait outside.

Sir, this convict wants to say something important.

Go on.

- Sir, I was told to find... - Yes, I know.

If you'd allow me to go around and look...

- Now? - Now.

It should be done now, among the solitary ones.

Take him.

Open the cells.

Show this man out.

Have you found Veszelka?

It's not him. Please...

Let's go.

Please. Don't always hurt me.

Let's go.

Stand in line.

In line.

You too.

Never been in the army?

In line.

Sir, they're assembled.

You stop here.

You go ahead.

So he's not here...

Let's go back.

Stop.

- Don't put the lamps out. - Yes, sir.

Stand against the wall.

Come here.

We're going back.

Everyone, stand up. In line.

Stand up again! Can't you hear?

Hurry up!

What are you waiting for?

Go back. Hurry up!

Well... In line.

Are you deaf? Stand up!

You too.

Come on, hurry up!

Come here.

- Excuse me... - Stay there.

You are Imre Veszelka.

You're an intelligent and clever man.

We're not asking you to find anyone.

We're not asking you for names.

Just tell us how many of Sándor's men we've caught.

You...

you,

you,

you,

come with me.

Halt!

Attention!

About face!

Five steps forward!

Women, you stay there.

Stop there.

Excuse me...

You know Veszelka's killed more people than I have.

Since he's been found, I'm to be set free.

Take off his hood.

Yes, sir.

Go over towards that row.

Stop.

Come here.

Help him.

Walk along here.

Do you know anyone here?

No.

Then walk along again.

Put that down.

Yes, sir.

Go on.

Come here.

So now do you know anyone?

No.

Excuse me! I know someone who's related to Sándor.

Juli!

Run!

One... two...

Come on.

Sit down.

Attention!

To the right! To the left!

Turn right, left and go!

Halt!

Hoods off!

Come on.

Stop it!

Stop!

Turn back right now!

They're dead! They're dead!

Restore order.

Everyone settle down. Hear me?

Form a square.

Come on! Come on!

Faster.

Move it. Faster.

Bring that man over here.

Come here.

Which one of them is Sándor?

Sir, he's not here.

Sándor is not in the fort.

Otherwise I'd have reported it long ago.

Are you certain of that?

I would have told you, for my own sake as well.

So you're quite sure he's not in the fort?

He's not.

But if you want, I'll find out where he is.

The girl is dead.

Your task is to find someone who's connected with Sándor. Clear?

Yes, sir.

You help him.

Bastard!

Go to hell!

Excuse me...

I'm frightened. Please protect me.

We'll protect you.

Sit down over there.

Hand out the provisions.

Sir, they usually get it in their cells.

Now they'll get it here.

Over to the wall. Sit in groups of five.

Come on, hurry up...

One... two... three... five... Come to the front.

Three... Hurry up.

Move up front.

Let's go.

You get moving, too.

Sit down.

Lead that man up.

Put him in that one. In Number Two.

Bring him out.

- He's been strangled. - Obviously.

Which two cells did we leave open last night?

- Apart from Gajdor's? - Of course.

This one...

and that one.

You...

Are you Mihály Lovas Sr.?

Mihály Kabai Lovas.

Did you leave your cell today?

No.

No?

Right. Go over there.

- Mihály Kabai Lovas Jr.? - Yes.

- Did you leave your cell? - No.

No. Right. Come inside.

We left two cell doors open last night.

It was either one of you or both of you.

Who killed him?

I'm asking you: Who killed him?

Not me.

Not me.

Alright. Both of you should be hanged.

But we'll only hang one of you.

One man for another.

Think about who killed János Gajdor.

Come back.

You, too.

Was it you?

No.

No.

Right.

So you won't admit it.

What I said is what will happen.

We'll hang one of you.

Choose.

Is Sándor here, in the fort?

No.

Is Sándor here?

No.

Right.

Go inside and think it over, whether Sándor is here or not.

Close the door.

Father, do you know Sándor?

You know him, too.

I don't.

You do.

You've seen him. You've seen him often.

Is he inside the fort?

No.

- Are you certain? - Yes.

Come outside.

You stay here.

I'd like to say something, please.

I'll show you who Sándor is, if you let me go...

If you let both of us go.

All right.

If you show me Sándor, I'll let both of you go.

- Want their hoods off? - That's not necessary.

Found him?

Show which one.

- It is him. - Yes.

Sándor was very brave in '48.

His gang joined Kossuth's men. Sándor was the captain.

It was reported to him once that two of his gang

attacked a merchant and raped his wife.

Sándor summoned the two men.

He waited for them with his pistol loaded.

When the two lads appeared, Sándor shot them.

Then he shouted loudly:

"That's the outlaws' code of honor!"

None of them looted when they were with Kossuth.

How do you know Sándor?

I saw him in '67.

He came out on the field, on horseback. He even spoke to me.

He visited us last year. I served the wine.

I saw him this year, too. I know him.

That's not Sándor.

You know it, too.

Sándor isn't in the fort.

Take him away.

Come on.

Go inside.

Excuse me...

I strangled that man.

Come out.

Say it again.

I killed him.

You're both lying.

You're lying. Both of you.

Both of you should be hanged.

But I will keep my word.

Only one of you.

Choose.

- This is the longer one. - Please...

I'll tell you

who killed him.

- So it wasn't you. - No, sir.

I just opened the door.

I opened it, waited till he did it, then I went back.

My son didn't leave his cell all night.

Come and show me who it was.

He's the one.

Well?

I killed him.

How?

His son came to my cell during the night.

Opened it,

he waited in my place until I was done,

then he locked me back in.

So it wasn't him?

You're all lying.

Take them away.

Stand there.

The chains.

Men, the chains.

Not like that. With your backs towards me.

Stand up.

Kabai, stand up. Don't you hear?

Hear that? It's music.

Put it down here.

Put it next to it in a row.

Put that down, too.

Put it down.

Like that.

Put it down.

Bring the others.

Good.

Boots, over here.

Right.

Company, halt.

Get undressed.

Fit for service.

Fit.

Fit.

Fit.

Line up!

March!

On the double! Right face!

Left face! March!

Left turn!

Right turn!

Attention!

Present arms!

Section, halt!

Charge!

First line, kneel!

Fire!

Stand up! Shoulder arms!

March!

Halt!

Charge!

Kneel!

Fire!

One, two... One, two...

Halt!

You may rest.

Warden, sir...

I'd like to have a wash.

Hear that, Józsi? He wants to wash.

What about the rest of you?

That's enough, Torma.

Maybe you'd care to report.

Reporting... Two guards, three prisoners.

Why are you people still here?

There were no other orders.

Everyone must join up.

But they are serious cases.

Everyone. Even the serious cases.

They're part of Sándor's gang.

Even so, everyone must enroll. Let's go.

Let's go.

Wait here.

At your service.

Bring them here.

- Name? - Mihály Kabai Lovas Jr.

- Ever been a soldier? - No.

And you?

I was, sir. In '48.

- Where did you serve? - With the rebels.

Were you a rebel?

I was in the cavalry.

Sir, I was also a cavalry rebel.

That's rare. Still have the skills?

It's not possible to forget, sir.

I've never seen it.

Would you show me?

If you have the horses.

We do.

- Can we choose? - Yes.

- Saddlery, too? - Whatever you like. Come on.

Help yourselves.

This is the one. I don't need a saddle.

Stop!

Give me that whip.

Hold it!

Stop it.

Give it to them.

That was beautiful, my friend.

You're an expert.

Would you form a unit like that?

A sort of independent cavalry?

I would. But I don't want him in it.

Company, halt!

Left face!

Don't move! At ease!

Are they all from the fort?

Yes.

- Everyone here? - Yes.

- Any sick? - None.

Go ahead.

You.

You too.

Let's go!

- Line up at the back. - Vidra, the tall Balogh.

Kocsony.

Váczi.

Nagyboldogi.

Tüski.

You, too.

You, too.

Join them.

Those from Szeged.

Uncle Pali.

Come on!

Line up! One, two, three, four...

Are they all here?

There are more.

Palkó.

Beke.

István.

Uncle Józsi.

Are they all the former ones?

Yes, they are.

- Are they all alive? - No.

At the time, many died in Damjanich's army.

And since then, at the fort, too.

Imre Veszelka.

But those who are alive... are they all here?

Yes.

Line up according to height.

You, too.

So now they're all here?

Sándor is still missing.

He won't come anyway.

- If we ask him, he will. - No need!

Reporting, colonel, the troops are assembled.

Soldiers...

From the Commander-in-Chief:

His Majesty Franz Joseph I,

Emperor of Austria by the grace of God,

Apostolic King of Hungary,

hereby in absentia pardons Sándor, the leader.

Lajos Kossuth sent a message

that his regiment is spent.

If he sends that message again,

we must all go

Long live Hungarian liberty!

Long live our homeland!

The rest of the troops

will get their just punishment.
