[soldier yelling in German]

What's going on here?

Keep moving.

[indistinct chatter]

-[man 1 in English] Just get rid of it.
-[man 2] Where are the papers?

[woman] Hurry up! Everything must go.

For the mayor. Take it.

Go, go, go!

[chatter continues]

[man 1] Just throw it away!

[mayor] And stay with it until
everything has been burned. Understood?

I'll do the last documents myself.

-Sir.
-Yes.

[mayor] Go.
Teuntje, would you help my wife pack?

And I think you should go home afterwards
and pack your things.

What do you mean?

Your father works for the Germans, no?

For sick Germans and for sick Zeelanders.

-[man 1] Burn it!
-[woman] Yes, of course.

[soldiers speaking German]

[man 3] Those are National Socialists!

[grunts]

[woman 2] You can't do that!

-Guess what I'm gonna do!
-Who do you think you are?

Guess what I'm gonna do. Huh?

[man 3] Who do you think you are?

[speaking German]

Move forwards now.

[continues shouting]

ELECTRIC BAKERY
SCHOENMAKERS

[bell rings]

-[laughs]
-It's over, Teun.

It's over. We got rid of them.

Come on.
The Canadians have crossed the border.

Who was that man?

Oh, no one Just some happy man.

[shutter clicks]

[shutter clicks]

[shutter clicks]

[shutter clicks]

[shutter clicks]

[soldier] Hand me the camera.

Give me the camera.

[in German] Where are your liberators?
Huh? Where are they?

Idiots. We're still in command.

[crunches]

[soldier 2] Watch out.

Hey, move!

[truck horn honking]

[women yelp]

[honks]

[driver] Idiot. Move out the way. Move!

[man 4] Back. Move back.

-[glass shatters]
-Ah!

-[tires squeal]
-[truck accelerates]

[yelling] Move.

[men yelling]

[indistinct shouting]

[man 5] Don't just stand there.

It was him!

[soldiers yelling]

-[soldier] Stop!
-[gunfire]

[indistinct shouting]

-[gunfire continues]
-[whistle blowing]

Teun.

[gunfire]

Teun!

[indistinct yelling]

[breathing heavily]

[man in English] Oh, Teun…

Hmm?

Oh, hey.
What's going on? There were shots.

Yeah… there, uh, there was
an accident with a couple of Germans.

Is it serious?

-Is Dirk home yet?
-Haven't seen him yet.

But when he gets home, stay home.
It's chaos in the streets.

-I'm off to the hospital.
-Now?

-They'll be needing me now.
-But we… we are free.

I know, Teun, you're right.
We'll celebrate tomorrow.

-[laughs]
-Okay?

Dirk?

[explosion]

NARVA, THE RUSSIAN FRONT
11 AUGUST 1944.

[German soldiers yelling]

You. Get up! Up!

Into the trenches, now! Get into position!

[tank approaching]

[soldier] What's going on here?

They're coming.

[officer] Get in position!

Quickly! Hold!

Load.

Now show them how hard you are.

We won't give up!

Lukas?

Hey. Hey.

[in English] Look at me. Look.

You'll be fine.

[cocks rifle]

Stay low. Okay?

[tank approaching]

[officer] Fire!

[gunfire]

-Fire!
-[bullets ricocheting]

-[explosion]
-[soldier screams]

[panicked gasp]

[soldiers scream]

[machine gun fire]

Lukas! Luuk!

[rapid gunfire]

[screams]

[in German] Pull back!

[rapid gunfire continues]

[moaning]

[officer] Shoot! Shoot!

Get up!

[gunfire continues]

[indistinct yelling]

Lukas. Come on.

[screams]

[battle sounds fade]

[panting]

[battle sounds resume]

[rapid gunfire]

[man screams]

[indistinct yelling in German]

Lukas!

Luuk!

Luuk!

Lukas!

-[bullets ricocheting]
-[whimpers]

Lukas!

-[helmet clangs]
-[grunts]

Luuk!

[gunfire]

[door opens]

[Teun] Dirk.

[in English] Hey, where have you been?

[sighs] Idiot.

You could have been killed.

Dad says we have to stay indoors tonight.

You and Dad, you're sissies. Both of you.

[inhales sharply] Ow.

Not a word to him, okay?

[man on radio]
Maintain your low tow position.

Remain directly behind
and in line with me.

Keep focused on my tail.

Is everything under control, chaps? Over.

You bet, sir.

Have you asked yourselves
how a glider pilot gets back, boys?

He doesn't.

Once you've landed in enemy territory,
there's no way back.

Hence the lovely nickname,
a flying coffin.

We are approaching 1,000 feet.
Prepare yourselves for decoupling. Over.

[copilot] Roger. Over.

[grunting]

[man] It's right this way.

Idiot.

[chuckling]

What?

[British officer]
What the bloody hell was that?

A roll, sir.

It was a childish maneuver.

In war, there's no place for boys
that want to act the hero.

Grow up.

In war, you've got to
be ready for anything, sir.

Those are your words.

My word was also to your father.

I promised him I'd have you back
for Christmas dinner. Alive.

Yeah. There's no need
to break that promise, sir.

I can still come, sir.

Only with your father's permission.

[indistinct German speech over radio]

[man groaning faintly]

[man yelling]
You want to be part of them?

Of that scum? Of those fascists?

Scum. That's what they are! Trash!

Get lost. Get! Get lost, you!

[man screaming in distance]

[indistinct German radio]

[man moans]

[indistinct chatter]

[groans]

Ah. Van Staveren.

[in German] You're very lucky.
We removed a splinter from your guts.

Don't move too much. Try to sleep.

[man laughs] Take a look at these guys.
I wonder if it helps, idiot.

Are you Dutch?

How are you feeling?

Ah.

Are you lost?

Oh, you're on holiday?

[chuckles] I understand.
In beautiful Russia.

With its picturesque scenery
and friendly farmers.

Have you sent a postcard home yet?

Dear Mama…

A little card from the Third Reich.
It's wonderful here.

I love national socialism.

I would happily die for it.

Are you an officer?

First Lieutenant Friedrich Fischer.

Still.

You should actually salute me, but…

have a rest first.

You've earned it.

-[men marching]
-[indistinct yelling]

[heavy vehicles driving]

[indistinct German chatter]

[in English] Hey.

[doctor] Liberation. What a delusion.

The Germans are back, just like that.

The Allies never crossed our border.

They won't just give up on Walcheren.

[general] Three airborne divisions…

35,000 men in military aircraft
and gliders

will depart from 24 airfields,

land in Holland,
64 miles behind enemy lines…

with one objective.

Retake Arnhem.

Operation Market Garden.

After which, we will regroup

and continue in a straight line to Berlin.

To put an end to the dark tyranny

that has held Europe in its grip
for nearly four years.

Pilots and soldiers,
the success of this operation

lies in your hands.

And with it, the fate of Europe.

Good luck.

-[officer] I'll see you at Christmas.
-[general] Yes indeed.

Arnhem.

This is really gonna happen now.

That's the intention.

Been training really hard.

Reached my number of flying hours.

You know what is meant
by a sense of responsibility?

It's been ingrained in me
since I was a child, sir.

That's not apparent
from your last escapade.

Or did you think
special rules apply to you?

You're not ready.

And your mother will sleep more easily
knowing you're on the ground.

It's done. I can come.

-Really?
-Yes.

-Welcome aboard.
-Thank you, sir.

Don't know how you pulled that off.
But no funny stuff.

[in German] All my father did was work.

He grafted from early morning
to late at night for…

for a pittance.

And that will never change.

It will be exactly the same
for my little brother and sisters.

Is that fair?

I never saw you as an idealist.

Nothing will change unless someone
does something about it and…

-And I want…
-Strength.

-I want to be proud.
-Equality. Brotherhood.

I've learned something, Dutchman.

If the lie is big enough…

and you tell it often enough…

then people start to believe it.

Do you know who said that?

Our Minister of Propaganda,
Joseph Goebbels.

Are there any Jews in your neighborhood?

Most were arrested
at the start of the war.

And?

Did you ever see them again?

There's your equality.

The Jews,
they're all criminals and racketeers.

Does Chelmo mean anything to you?

That's where they put me
when they had no further use for me.

The elderly, the sick, children…

babies…

Jews, yeah.

[dog barks faintly]

[scoffs]

I was the guard.

There is no such thing as good.

The evil…

in everyone. In every one of us.

[whimpering]

[breathes shakily]

Get in the trenches.

[whimpers]

Idiots. Bastard.

Go. Ahead.

[woman] Wim!

Wim.

Come on.

Sit down.

-Oberst Berghof.
-Mayor Oostveen.

What can I do for you?

I am responsible
for defending this island.

I cannot let resistance terrorists
go unpunished.

Of course.

If necessary,

I will arrest all the young men
who are registered here.

Of course.

I hope I can count on you.

Have a nice day.

[in English]
I've heard from a reliable source…

Early this morning, three boys. Innocent.

They will be executed if the person
responsible doesn't turn himself in.

[woman] You know he didn't do anything!

He was not even there.

[Teun]
They're looking for the person who did it.

You have to go into hiding.

Dad has enough contacts.

Dad works for the Germans.

Janna can help.

Janna?

My Janna?

[bell rings]

Hi, Teun.

Hey.

Dirk has to go into hiding and…

and you know where, he says.

They're after him.

[Janna] Perhaps…

-I know people.
-Yeah? Who?

How come I don't know you know people?

Sometimes it's better
not to know too much, Teun.

So, how does Dirk know
that you know people?

[bell rings]

[in German] What shall we eat?

I would like two bread rolls.

-Please.
-White bread.

Yes.

-Delicious.
-Three?

-Hello.
-Hello. Can I help you?

One bread roll and two of those.

[sergeant] Van Staveren…

Volunteer in the navy?

Assigned to the shock troops?

Yes, Sergeant.

I understand that you are better.

Good, I'll…

send you back in.

You start next week.
You're being transferred to Holland.

To Holland?

You leave tomorrow. Dismissed.

[whispering] Today's your lucky day.

I made a call. You're getting a desk job.

In Zeeland, in the south.

Keep your head down, Dutchman.

This shit will be over soon.

And then you can start over.

I promise.

[distant explosions]

[pilot 1 on radio in English]
We're flying at 6,000 feet.

Thunder Two to Thunder One,
you are two miles to port.

[pilot 2] Thunder One
to Thunder Two. Roger.

Thunder One to Thunder Three,
pick up the lead.

[pilot 3] Thunder Three
to Thunder One. Roger.

That's it. Nice and steady.

[pilot 4] Bomber to Thunder Two. Correct.

Maintain speed.

[pilot 2] Thunder Two to Thunder One,
cloud break ahead.

Maintain altitude.

[pilot 5] Tow Plane Six to Troop Six.
Is everything under control? Over.

Troop Six, everything's steady. Over.

[pilot 5] The lads are having a bet,

and who knows, this could be the last
we hear of you, so I'm just going to ask.

Is it true that Monty put your very young
co-pilot forward for this job personally?

You're supposed
to observe radio silence, over.

Is that the young co-pilot himself?

We just want to know what it's like to
have a daddy who's buddies with Churchill.

You'll be sipping tea
at Buckingham Palace when it's over.

I'm more focused on the Jerries
I'm about to kill, Tow Plane Six, over.

[laughing]

All right.
That's enough out of you please, dingbats.

Keep your eyes on the job at hand.

Ah, Henk, old boy.

I do believe you are home sweet home.

[Henk] It's beautiful. It's Zeeland.

It's a bit wet.

[laughs]

[airplane engines roaring]

[air raid siren blaring]

[loud bang]

-[pilot on radio] Steady.
-Sit down, soldier.

Stay on course.

[loud bangs]

God.

[man on radio] Keep it straight.
Keep it straight.

Stay on course. Stay in line.

[explosion]

[indistinct yelling on radio]

Blessed is thou amongst women,
blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God…

[soldiers] Pray for us sinners…

Settle down, back there.

[soldiers] Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners…

[all screaming]

[grunting]

Tony.

[man on radio]
Tow Six, keep it straight, damn it.

Tony. Tony! Talk to me, are you okay?

Check the wings. Check the wings!

The right one's fine.

Henk! Check the left wing!

Gone!

-My God.
-[yelling]

The left wing's damaged. It's gone.

-Tony, the left wing is gone.
-Release!

Release, William.

[Will grunting]

[man on radio] Hold course.

It's stuck! The release is stuck.

Listen.
There's too much tension in the cable.

You're going to have to roll it.

Did you hear me?
You're going to have to roll it.

Henk, come forward now! I need you.

[pilot on radio] You have to release.

What's it going to take
for you to release?

-Release, now!
-You need to focus.

-Pull the release lever as hard--
-What?

Focus, Henk.
In three we're going to go for a roll.

You pull that lever as hard as you can!

Okay. Ready? Three,

two…

…one!

Release!

[grunting]

[yelling]

[grunting loudly]

Lift it, Will!

Lift it up.

Lift it!

[groaning]

Brace for impact.

Brace!

[water bubbling]

[vehicle approaching]

Dirk.

Dirk.

[doorbell rings]

-[man in German] Visser family?
-Yes.

Is your father home?

He's on duty.

May I wait here for him?

Lovely.

Tastefully decorated.

[door opening]

Would you like a drink?

Yes. Water would be lovely.

Yes.

-Thank you.
-My pleasure.

Your mother?

Where is she?

In the cemetery.

I'm sorry.

My troops were involved in an accident
two weeks ago.

Three of my men
are in the cemetery now too.

Practically kids.

And that's your brother, I take it.
Wim, right?

Dirk.

Ah, yes. Of course. Dirk.

[doctor] Good day. How can I help you?

[Berghof] Dr. Visser,
it's an honor to meet you.

-Oberst Berghof.
-It's a pleasure.

What can I do for you?

You may be able to help me.

[gulps]

[men groaning]

[in English] Fuck. Are you okay?

Sir?

We've got to get out of here.

[Tony groaning in pain]

Sir, sir, I'm here.

Ah! No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no.

[groans, screams]

-All right, sir, I've got you.
-[moans]

All right.

Nigel.

-Okay. Just get to dry land.
-They've probably already seen us.

Let's move out. Come on.

Come on.

Where the hell are we?

[Berghof in German] It's been five weeks
and it's only getting worse.

[doctor] It's very infected.

I'll clean and disinfect the wound now

and afterwards at the hospital, we can…

remove the shrapnel.

You are a true doctor.

Passionate about your calling.

It's very clear.

Someone who does the right thing
in difficult circumstances.

Even if it requires personal sacrifice.

When you speak to your son,

ask him to report to our headquarters.

Yes?

-[in English] I'm turning myself in.
-No.

No, surely you're not doing that.

Janna will help you into hiding.
She promised.

So go pack your things.

If I go into hiding,
Wim and those other boys will die.

I have a good understanding
with the Germans.

-Perhaps if you turn yourself in…
-No.

-Teun, those boys…
-What do I care about those louts?

-But they didn't throw that rock.
-It was an accident.

I'll go to Berghof. I'll talk to him.

-Negotiate.
-With that man?

Maybe he'll get a prison sentence.

I know how to deal with them, Teun.

And the liberation
won't take that much longer, son.

There's no other way, Teun.

[Henk] I think the Germans
flooded this island on purpose.

[John] What do you mean, island?

[Henk] I think this one's called Schouwen.
It's one of the smaller ones.

How far is that from Arnhem?

To Arnhem? How?

We're never going to make it.
Do you know how many Jerries there are?

We don't stand a chance.
Look at the state of us.

Shh!

[boat engine approaching]

See? They're already looking for us.

Just let me do the talking, Teun.

[guard in German]
Follow me to the first floor.

Ah, yes.

-Mr. Visser.
-Oberst Berghof.

Please.

It's good you're here.

I take it you can tell me more
about the fugitive terrorist.

No. My son isn't a… No.

It was just a moment…

of carelessness.

-It was an accident.
-Yes.

-It was never his intention--
-No, no, we are here…

to say…

that he is deeply sorry.

And we hope that we
might be able to reach…

a compromise?

You know,
I hold deep respect for people like you.

Whether in war or peace,

your moral compass
always steers you in the right direction.

I value that in my own ranks too.

There's a job to do…

and I try to carry it out
with honor and in good conscience.

But not everyone is up to the task.

Very few people
are as righteous as you, Dr. Visser.

Thank you.

That is why…

um…

my son wants to turn himself in,

under two conditions.

First,

the other boys are to be released.
They are innocent, right?

And the second condition

is that Dirk receives
a sentence, naturally,

but a prison sentence,

a life sentence, if need be.

Instead… Instead of…

[Dr. Visser sobs]

[in English] Let's go.
That man is playing games with you.

[in German] What did you say?

That his…

His night shift is about to begin.

What did she say?

That her father has to go to work.

No, no, before that.

She's afraid
that you're playing games with him.

You work for
our honorable Mayor Oostveen, don't you?

People like you and your father,

I am grateful to those
with such a great sense of duty.

Dr. Visser,

you've helped my sick and wounded soldiers
to the best of your ability.

Now let me help you.

I have to sentence your son.
There's nothing I can do about that.

But I will ensure
that his punishment is light.

You have my word.

[emotional piano music playing]

It's for the best, Teun.

It'll be all right.

[Teun sniffles]

[whispers]
Under the table in the basement.

Give it to Janna.

Bye, sis.

[bell rings]

Thanks.

[in English]
I've found an address for Dirk.

He can go there tonight.

Do you know these?

Dirk's been arrested.

Please give me the photos.

-I'll give them to…
-To your friends?

Yes.

I'm sorry.
But those photos are very important.

You can have them
if you and your friends rescue Dirk.

Teun.

You have to give them to me.

I'll talk to them.

I 'm coming.

You can't.

Tonight at eight o'clock. Here.

[thunder rumbles]

Hey.

Why have we stopped?

[Tony coughs]

-[thunder rumbling]
-[rain falling]

[continues coughing]

[rustling]

We were supposed to have landed in Arnhem.

-[man] In Arnhem?
-[sighs]

-That's a long way.
-Yes.

It will be over soon.
Antwerp has been liberated.

And the Canadians
are already in Zeelandic Flanders.

-What?
-What did he say?

The Canadians
are already over the Belgian border.

That's where we need to be.

Uh, how do we get there?

The Canadians are here?

[man] Yeah.

And you lot are here.

Here.

So they are at the other side
of the islands.

Do you have a boat, here? Boat?

A boat?

It was seized.

Being out on the water is too risky.
We're staying here.

[Tony] The Jerries know we crashed.

They'll be searching for us.
We can't stay in one place long.

It's too dangerous out there.
Especially with…

What?

We move out in the morning.

End of discussion.

So you're his sister.

Dirk should never have carried out
an attack on his own.

He threw a stone

that accidentally smashed a windscreen.

-I don't understand…
-Dirk volunteered of his own accord.

-He's 17.
-We're all in danger now.

Especially if he starts talking.

We need those photos.

You work at the town hall, right?

I can arrange things.

Anything you want. Russian stamps, or…

Or I can steal documents.

I'm looking for a map.

A tide chart for the Sloe.

Showing the dam and the marshlands.

And if I find the map, you'll help Dirk?

[door shuts]

[Berghof in German] What do you think?

Is a 17 year old still a child?

Where were you at 17?

At a training camp in Bavaria.

Hmm.

Was that your own choice?

Yes.

This boy knew exactly what he was doing
when he joined the resistance.

I feel sorry for his father and sister

but I can't make any exceptions.

[in English] What if it's for the Jerries?

[coughs]

It's useless.
Maybe we should give ourselves up.

What?

-Never.
-[Tony] We're not giving ourselves up.

If we do that, we're as good as dead.

I'd rather drown.

That's easy for you to say,
you're going to die anyway.

Maybe, John.

But not today.

Now stand up. March out.

Move.

[whispers] Okay, go.

[groaning]

Easy.

Easy.

[Tony moans]

Good work.

I'll go look for some food, sir.

[Tony] A steak would be great.
Medium rare, please.

[Tony] Yeah. Yeah. [breathes heavily]

[Will] Oh, gentlemen.

-[inhales excitedly]
-No!

[squeals with delight]

[all laughing]

-Yes!
-Whoo!

-[Will] There you go. Drink up.
-[John] Cheers.

It's not bad.

[Nigel] No, it's good, man.

So, how many?

[laughs]

How many? What are you talking about?

-How many?
-[John] How many women have you had?

[men laugh]

A gentleman does not
disclose such matters.

More than three?

[men laugh]

Three?

More than ten?

What about you, Willy? Eh?

Young squire?

-[kissing sounds]
-[laughter]

No?

Of course I have.

[laughs]

You have never.

-Not even with the girls in Ringway?
-[Tony] Surely.

[men laugh]

Jesus, man. We're going to die in a week
and you have never…

That, that is most, uh…

unfortunate.

[chuckling]

[John] Um, I don't think
there's anything worse than that.

[Tony] Oh, God. Yes. Leave him alone.

I am not gonna die.

[raucous laughing]

[grunts]

[Will] Henk.

[groans]

Nigel?

[Henk coughs]

John. In the bloody night, John.

They're gone.

Bloody traitors.

-The map, Henk.
-[Henk] It's in there.

They took my life jacket.

-So they took everything.
-[Tony] Boys, listen…

They're traitors, sir, bloody traitors!

Listen.

I need you both to go and get us a boat.

I'm staying here. I'll guard the house.

Yeah, right.

[Will] Sir, I'm not
leaving you here alone.

Yes, you are.

Get us a boat.

That's an order.

[suspenseful music playing]

[soldier yelling in German]

We won't give up!

[faint shouting] Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

[man screams in pain]

[screaming continues]

[groans]

Stop. Stop!

[man in German] Calm down.

No!

You know what we want.

No. No!

[screams]

[sobs]

Give us the names.

[Dirk] No! Stop.

[screams echo]

Come on. Come on.

Henk.

Oh, God.

You've got to be kidding me.

I thought that Dutch people could swim!

Henk…

[in German] Fritz, look what I've found.

[Tony in English] Don't touch.
Get your hands off me!

[man in German] Careful!

[door opening]

[man] There's water here.

Let go.

[man in English] Come here. Come here.

[Tony] The things I bloody-- [grunts]

[man in German] Show me your hands.

Damn it. Stay still.

[Tony] Call yourselves soldiers?

[in German]
If he makes another noise, just shoot him.

-Don't shoot. I'm alone.
-Shh!

Easy.

Easy.

Let me go
and I won't tell anyone I've seen you.

Easy, my friend. I'll do whatever you say.

[both yell]

[German soldier] Hermann?

Hermann, who's there?

[Will yells]

[soldier] Hey, Hermann!

Hermann, what's going on?

[yells]

[soldier] Hermann!

Fuck.

-[glass shatters]
-[screams]

Keep an eye on him.

-No, don't shoot.
-Hermann?

Hermann.

Hermann.

-Drop your weapon.
-Shoot, William.

It doesn't matter
what happens, just shoot.

Shut up.

Drop your weapon.

Shoot, William. Shoot. Take your shot.

Drop your weapon.

Shut up you…

Put the gun down, please.
Put the gun down.

Put the gun down now!

-Gun down.
-William.

-I don't have a clear shot.
-[Tony] Doesn't matter, mate.

Squeeze the trigger. Just shoot!

-Take the shot, William!
-Put the gun down now.

Gun down now! Put the gun down! Now!

Gun down!

[gunshot]

[Henk] Will!

Will!

[cocks rifle]

Will, you don't have to do this. Will!

[in German]
No, please. Please don't shoot. Don't.

-[gunshot]
-[splash]

[door shuts]

[in German] Find their addresses.

As soon as possible.

Five people, all men.

If there had been more,
he would have told me.

He tried to act tough for the first hour.

But then I increased the pressure
and he eventually named them all.

Good.

-Arrest and execute them immediately.
-Mm-hmm.

And the boy? What should we do with him?

[Berghof] No special treatment.

[soldier] Good.

[in English] What?

This is crazy.

Henk.

It's going to be our last chance.

Let's get over. Just us.

Keep moving.

[intense music playing]

Don't look at me. Walk.

They've made your brother talk.
He's mentioned names.

[soldiers chatting in German]

And Dirk? What will become of him?

What will they do to him?

[yelling in German]
Don't move. Go forward.

Quickly.

I said, don't move. Stand still.

Hey.

No. Please. Please don't.

Don't move!

Hands up.

[whistle blowing]

There's no need to sit down.

It's a shame about the training camp.

Wasted effort.

Pack your things.

Report to the courtyard.

[in English] Dad!

[sobbing]

Daddy.

They're going to shoot him.

Teun, who said? What do you mean?

-What can we do?
-Easy now, Teun. Easy now.

It'll be alright, you'll see.

[sobs]

[soldier in German] Get in.

LOCAL COMMAND

Halt, stop there!

-Papers, please.
-Yes.

Go on.

Oberst Berghof.

I need to speak to Colonel Berghof.

Oberst Berghof!

Oberst Berghof.

Please may I speak with you?

Please!

Please.

[sad music playing]

[soldier] Approach.

Ready.

[rifles cock]

Aim.

-Fire.
-[shots echo]

Stand down.

[sobbing]

[sobs]

[chair rattles]]

[man in English] We need
to get your map to the Allies.

Otherwise everything
will have been in vain.

The German positions are on this side.

Here.

Here.

And here.

Your brother took photographs of them.

The Germans dug themselves in weeks ago.

Everything they've got
is aimed at the Sloedam.

And here, on the other side…

are the Canadians.

If they cross the dam…

there will be a huge massacre.

Their only chance is at high tide.

There's a fairway here,

through the mud…

to the other side.

So that they can attack from here.

[breathes shakily]

Through this same fairway,

you can reach the Allies.

I can't do it.

There's a boat waiting in the mud.
By the Cornelisse farm.

Come on.

Hey.

No, wait. Hey.

[air raid siren wailing]

[in German] Stop. ID, please.

You too.

[men yelling]

Go on.

Open it.

[soldier] Get out. Faster.

Come on, men.

Up. Keep going.

Faster. Keep going.

Faster.

Soldiers.

You are all tired…

sick, cold and wet.

But we mustn't give up.

Walcheren is our stronghold.
Hitler's stronghold.

They will attack us with all their might.

But we will fight down to the last man.

We won't give up.

Never!

[rustling]

Teun.

[in English] Teun, there is no boat.

Keep looking.

[men yelling]

Get out of the way.

Everybody out.

All clear.

[indistinct chatter]

[Morse code beeping]

Bloody hell.

-Hey.
-Not now.

Okay.

One thing's sure, we're all going to die.
Well, they're going to blow us to pieces.

We'll just have to
blow 'em up first then, won't we?

Hey.

Hey.

Cheers.

Yeah, no trouble.

So, what are you?

-Um…
-Airborne?

Yeah. English. And you are a…

-Canuck.
-Far from home.

Yes.

-What's your name?
-Mm.

-Bill.
-I'm Will.

Hm! Nice to meet you, Will.

You hungry?

-Yeah?
-Yes.

I'll get you some food,
get you a new uniform.

[dog barking]

[wheel clicking]

[Janna] Now?

Almost.

I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

I should have stopped him.

It's what he wanted.

[Janna] Thanks for coming along.

Come on.

[gasps]

[man] Hey! Who goes there?

Push.

[gunfire]

Push.

[screams]

[man in German] There they are.

[in English] Stay low.

[grunts loudly]

[man] Stand still.

Don't move.

We're getting reports.
The causeway's been blown.

How bad?

Heavily damaged.

We can only get across on foot.

And across the water?

We'll never get across
in our amphibian boats.

Too shallow. Too much mud.

We can only go straight on.

That's suicide. We won't stand a chance.

Certainly not without air cover.

Prepare your men for tomorrow morning.

-Don't think about it, just do it.
-Yes, sir.

Come on. Go on, everyone.

Come on.

Move up, gentlemen.

-Come on.
-Let's go.

-Come on.
-Move out. Come on.

[yelling in German]

Get into position.

[alarm blaring]

Everyone get ready to fire.

Get ready to fire.

Get ready to fire.

[gun firing]

[officer] Move! Move!

Bill! We've got to get out of here.
We've got to go!

-[officer 1] Keep firing.
-[officer 2] Move. Move!

Keep your heads down.

Follow me.

[man] Here. Give me your hand.

[grunts]

This is madness.

Move! Move! Move!

Move up.

Hey!

No!

Joe!

Now. Get him.

[officer] Move it!

[officer] Retreat.

Bill, let's go!

-Go.
-[officer] Retreat!

-We've got to get out of here.
-Move!

[officer] Fall back.

Retreat.

Retreat!

Move, move, move!

[soldier in German] Cease fire.

[soldier 2] Cease fire.

[soldier 3] Cease fire.

[men moaning]

[panting]

[ominous music playing]

[groans]

[men yelling in German]

Take this to the major.

Sir.

[Janna struggling to breathe]

We'll have an hour and a half
before it dries up.

How long until we can get across?

We can cross in four hours.
Then the water will be high enough.

You'll come ashore here. We'll attack them
and you'll hit them on the flank.

[Scottish major]
I'll have my men prepared for the attack.

[explosions rumbling]

[distant gunfire]

[gunfire continues]

[men shouting]

[in German] Come. Quickly.

Come. Quickly.

Quickly.

[grunts]

Keep firing.

Quickly! Quickly! Quickly!

Keep going!

Keep going!

[indistinct shouting]

Fritz, hurry up. Get in.

Fritz, hurry up. Get in!

[Fritz] Open up! Open the fucking door!

[grunts]

[Teun gasps]

[Fritz] Did you think we forgot about you?

Lie down!

Lie down!

Ah!

[Fritz] It's your turn.

[whimpers]

Huh?

[grunts]

-[yells]
-[gunshot]

[both grunting]

[Fritz yells]

[Marinus grunting loudly]

[yells]

[Teun sobs]

[Marinus groans]
