How did this happen?

We don't know.

Eitan.

Eitan.

Come with me. Come with me.

Hold on, Eitan, look at me.

Come with me.

Please, please.

-We have arrived. -Yes, thank you.

Mr. Frank.

-Good morning, Mr. Getter. -Good morning.

I'm glad you came.

-Of course. -What happened to your arm?

A climbing accident. Unfortunately, it's broken.

Climbing can land you at the doctor's.

-Please come in. -Thank you.

-Please sit down. -Thank you.

Would you like some coffee?

-Yes, please. -One moment.

-How is Mr. Zimmer? -As well as can be expected.

He sends his warmest regards.

Thank you.

You told me last time

that you had an important meeting across town.

Yes?

What were you doing at the Marienstift care home?

I saw you there.

Who was the old lady you went to see?

Are you trying to tell me that you were following me?

I just wanted to make sure I'm right.

Right? Right about what?

You know...

Apologies, Mr. Getter, but I think this is highly inappropriate.

Thank you for the coffee.

The woman you visited was Cornelia Breitner.

Martin Breitner's mother.

So you know Martin Breitner?

Not personally, no.

Martin Breitner.

Martin Breitner and I, we were neighbors growing up.

We grew up together. His mother practically raised me.

We fought together at the front, became brothers in arms.

God rest his soul.

You know, Mrs. Breitner, she lives in her own little world.

But I consider it my duty to visit her from time to time.

That's exactly what I thought.

-You know something, Mr. Frank? -Not Mr. Frank.

-Ernst. -Ulrich.

Let's have a drink with a little more bite.

Sounds great.

You know, one hour from now, two of my friends will come to see me.

Friends from the good old days.

And I would be very happy if you...

stayed with us.

Sure.

-Ernst. -Ulrich.

Rank?

Sturmbannführer in the SS.

She's a sweetheart.

Don't get too attached.

What, Tamush? Spit it out.

What do you think happened to Christina?

People seem strong until something happens and they fall apart.

I'm worried about Eitan.

He'll get over it.

How can you be so sure?

You know the saying "time heals all wounds"?

-Yeah? -And it's not true.

I know that first-hand.

But you learn to live with grief.

He'll be fine.

What about your American guy?

All good.

Everybody seems to like him.

That's great.

We're not a thing yet, you know.

Alright.

Move.

Move.

And anyway, how can...

How can you tell?

What?

That this is right?

How did you know that Dad was your man?

I felt it before I knew it.

I felt that...

I wanted to be with him all the time, wanted to kiss him.

-I loved his smell. He smells great. -That's important.

And I'll stop now, because this is embarrassing.

How are you?

How am I?

I killed Ingrid, and now Christina is dead too.

It's not your fault.

Then who's fault is it?

I don't know.

Some would say it's fate. We all get what's in store for us.

Do you believe this crap?

No.

-You're also to blame for her death. -Why me?

Because you made her say that Ingrid was driving.

-That's why she drank, smoked and drowned? -Yes, exactly.

Eitan, she was an adult. Adults take responsibility for their actions.

You talk to me about taking responsibility?

Did you know that Dad and her had a fight last night?

No, I didn't know that.

He's glad she's dead.

-Seriously... -He wants me dead too.

What do you mean?

Yes, because if I'm not a fighter pilot, if I don't fly Phantoms and bomb Egypt,

I'm worth nothing!

I understand you're upset, and it really is a tragedy,

but if you say this about your father, you don't know him at all.

It's you who doesn't know him, you!

Yad Vashem museum, hello.

Hello, can I speak with Henia from the archive, please?

Of course, let me put you through.

-Archive, hello. -Henia?

- Yes? -Hello, this is Anna Zehavi.

-I came to see you three days ago. - Of course, I remember. How are you?

I'm fine. I'm very well.

I wanted to update you about something.

Yes?

I found a mistake in the records of an Auschwitz prisoner

by the name of Manfred Goldstein.

What kind of mistake?

It says there that the prisoner was murdered in Auschwitz, but...

He's alive. He's my husband.

He has the same number tattooed on his arm.

I thought maybe someone from his family

thought he'd died and filled out a Page of Testimony.

Hello?

I've never heard of such a mistake before, but you never know.

Let me check the papers.

Of course, I'll wait.

Yes, I found it.

It's not a mistake. His brother survived and filled out a Page of Testimony.

- Hello? -Yes, yes, I'm here.

Thelma!

Listen, I may have found Uri's brother.

What?

I think Uri's brother, who was also in Auschwitz,

may have survived and lives in Kiryat Atta.

But Uri said he died in the gas chambers.

Yes, but I was just told by Yad Vashem that he may be alive,

and they gave me an address.

Could this be? Could such miracle happen to us?

Do you think this can really happen?

What do you mean? There are plenty of stories like this.

-Really? -Well, of course.

-Go see him. -I want to go right now.

-But I have an evening shift at the barn. -I'll take your shift. Go see him.

-I'll drive there right now. -Yes, don't think too much, just go.

-I'm going. -Go.

-The big or the small barn? -The small one!

Everyone can cheer on their team, but when we do it, they call us Nazis.

We have to bring home the trophy to shut them up.

Germany will be world champions.

-It'll be tough. -About time!

-I agree. -The Italians are good.

They don't have a striker like Gerd Müller.

We'll finish them off.

Who do you think will be in the final?

Us against the Brazilians. I like how they dance with the ball.

The Brazilians are monkeys that have just come down from the trees.

And the Italians are cowards. We saw that during the war.

An entire army that just surrenders.

We're bringing home the trophy.

To Germany!

Cheers!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

Where's the bathroom?

I'll show you.

-Third door on the left. -Thanks.

Dachauerstraße 6.

Right...

Where were you stationed during the war?

Ernst?

At the SS headquarters in Berlin.

-What did you do? -Well, what did I do?

For a while, I was the officer in charge of SS troops on the Eastern Front.

So he was a desk jockey.

You don't look like that.

-How do they look? -They look different.

Okay, time's flying, I must be going.

Already?

Yes, I have to pick up my grandson from kindergarten.

But we'll see each other tonight, right?

-Of course. -Great.

See you tonight.

See you later.

Hallo?

-Rafi. - How is it going?

Not well. It's bad. Really bad.

What happened?

They want to see me again tonight, but they suspect me.

Calm down and stick to the plan.

Go to the meeting and find a way of telling them what you "really" did.

- Remember what we talked about? -There's no point in going there tonight.

Rafi, I want to come home. Can you book me a flight?

Uri, you're the first one who could infiltrate their group.

Trust us. You're on your way to Mengele.

There are holes in the story.

Hello, I'm here for a routine check.

-I'm from the municipal utilities. -Yes, but I wasn't told about this.

-Is this the home of Ernst Frank? -Ja.

And you are his wife?

Yes, but as I said, no one has called me.

It will only be two minutes.

Come in.

Thank you.

And I do apologize.

Those guys in customer service can sometimes make mistakes.

They probably forgot to notify you in advance.

I will need to take a look at the fuse box.

Would you like something to drink?

-No, thank you. -Okay, I'll be in the kitchen.

-I'm in the middle of cooking. -Of course, I'll be fine. Thank you.

It all looks fine.

The next inspection will be in a year. You just need to sign here.

Can I just ask... Where is your husband at the moment?

He is at work, in town.

-Right, bye. -Bye!

-Hello? -Yes, somebody was here just now.

All good.

-Hello. -Hello, sorry to bother you.

-Yes? -My name is Anna Zehavi.

I got Izya Goldstein's name from the Yad Vashem museum.

My husband is also a Holocaust survivor and...

His name used to be Manfred Goldstein, so I thought that maybe they...

-Come in. -Maybe they're related...

-Come on in. -Thank you so much. Thanks.

Izya is in the shower. He just got home from work.

I'll tell him you're here. I just hope he doesn't have a heart attack.

Thanks.

Thank you very much.

Izya is a shift manager at "Atta".

Oh, that's so nice.

We live in a kibbutz.

-Which one? -Netser Tikva.

He's all dressed up for you.

-Hello. -Hello.

Thank you for coming. Have a seat, please. Make yourself at home.

-Thank you. Sorry, you just got home. -That's alright.

Hagit tells me that

your husband's name is Manfred Goldstein, and that he was also in Auschwitz.

Yes, before he Hebraized his name. He's now called Uri Zehavi.

I understand that your brother's name was Manfred Goldstein.

Yes.

My husband's number is one before yours.

One, seven, four, five, seven, one.

That's Manfred's number. He was in front of me in the line.

Hagit, fetch the photo, please.

I'll show you a picture of him.

-This one? -Yes, sure, here it is.

That's Manfred and me. This is...

I'm the one on the right and this... this is Manfred.

Is that your husband?

No.

No?

He doesn't look like the man in the picture.

But... but it's the same number...

I'm so sorry.

I don't understand how this is possible.

The others are waiting.

We have a surprise for you.

I don't like surprises.

You will like this one. Please.

Please.

THE GERMAN STUDENTS

What do you think?

The Hitler Youth...

was the first place where I felt at home.

It was like a big family.

Right...

Thanks.

So, what do you think of our comrade's museum?

I'm overwhelmed.

-Daring! -Daring!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

A little flower is blooming on the heath

And its name?

Erika.

A hundred thousand little bees

Hotly hum around

Erika

A little flower is blooming on the heath

And its name?

Erika

-Cheers! -Cheers!

Cheers, wonderful!

-Cheers, Andreas. -Cheers.

What did you do during the war, Ernst?

I already told you.

Not a word will leave this room. You're amongst friends.

So, what did you really do?

Ernst?

Why do you want to know?

Because it was the best time of my life.

Honestly?

Same here.

So, where did you serve?

I was an Obersturmbannführer in the Division Wiking.

Which regiment?

Germania.

And where did you fight?

The question is, where didn't I fight?

I started in Ternopil.

The Caucasus...

Barbarossa...

And then Stalingrad.

Then battles in Budapest,

Warsaw... and then Berlin right until the end.

Comrades, a toast...

To Obersturmbannführer Ernst Frank

and the SS Division Wiking.

Cheers!

Men... Let's take a picture.

Come on!

Come on, a picture.

-No, I'm not photogenic. -Oh, come on.

Where's the little bird?

And!

Sieg Heil !

-Good evening. -Hi.

-Has something happened to him? -Take the phone.

-Uri? - Hello?

-How are you? - I'm fine, is something wrong?

Nothing is wrong.

I just wanted to hear your voice.

How are you?

You would not believe the day I've had.

But... are you sure everything's fine?

Everything's fine.

I can't wait to come home.

I'll be waiting for you.

I will see you soon. It won't be long.

See you, my love.

Thanks.

-Is everything alright? -Yes.

-Yes, everything's great. -Anna.

-The kibbutz's birthday falls on Shavuot. -Yes.

Everything has to be perfect,

including the first fruit procession and the children's dance.

And don't forget that you have to read a poem.

I have picked one. Rehearsals start tomorrow.

-Everything will be perfect. -Great.

Are we starting this up, Sammy?

What's wrong?

-I don't know, I feel uneasy. -But we followed Uri's plan, right?

We did.

Where's the problem? Uri knows what he's doing.

True, but Uri is not here.

Well, then, fingers crossed.

-You go up, I will start it. -Well, good luck!

-Good morning, Anna. -Good morning.

How is it going?

-Do you know when Uri is coming back? -Thursday night.

-Is there a problem? -Yes, with the production line.

Ah... I'm sure you'll figure it out.

What?

You're angry because of what I told the police.

I don't know what you told the police.

That I saw Uri and Christina argue the night before she died.

But they were speaking English.

I didn't want to lie to the police, so I told them.

-I don't want you to be angry with me. -I'm not angry with you.

Okay, out of the way. I'm working here.

-Have a good day. -Have a good day.

You know, I've known this man my whole life.

His daughter has been with me since I was born,

and he never spoke a word about what happened.

Because of you he's talking now.

That's a lot.

You are the one that brought me here.

You smell lovely.

-What does that mean? -Nothing.

-Tamar. -Eitan, out!

Sorry, I have to talk to you.

Can you get dressed?

-Go get dressed. -Okay.

-Tell me when you're dressed. -Okay. Give us a minute.

Alright, you can turn around. Okay, what's going on? How are you feeling?

Shit.

-Sit down, take a breath. A drink? -No, no.

-I can make you a sandwich or something. -No, it's okay, Steven.

-Can you tell that nagger to stop? -He's trying to be nice to you.

-I don't need it. Can you come over here? -What's going on?

-Did you hear what Sammy told the police? -No.

That Dad argued with Christina before her death.

-Okay, what does that mean? -It's Sammy, Sammy.

-What? -Sammy's trying to frame Dad.

-Why would Sammy try to frame Dad? -Why would Sammy try to frame Dad?

I don't know... Does he want to take over the factory?

No, "take over the..." Are you blind?

Haven't you noticed how Sammy's been devouring Mom with his eyes for years?

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

-I made you a sandwich. -Sorry.

Sorry, he's not the first one to fancy Mom.

Seriously, that doesn't mean he wants to frame Dad for murder, Eitan.

Take a bite. It will calm you down, come on.

-Er... Steven...? -It will be good.

-Don't touch me. -I don't think he's hungry.

You know what? There, cool? There.

Don't do that. Alright? Don't do it.

-What's going on? -It's okay, just...

-Leave it. -Okay.

Eitan.

Eitan!

That must be the desert fox...

What's going on?

I didn't trust that rat from the start.

Yes, but you were at his home and spoke to his wife.

And do you remember?

With that scoundrel from America, we didn't want to believe it either.

It can't be. It can't be.

Andreas... Andreas...

You're a liar.

-What do you want? -You nearly managed to trick us.

-Come now. -Ernst Frank.

Who came up with that name?

Who sent you? What does this clown want from me?

Andreas, calm down.

I showed this photo to the officers in your unit,

and not one of them recognized you.

Did you think we wouldn't check?

Nobody remembers an officer with your name.

-Who did you ask? -That doesn't matter.

Yes, it does matter! Who did you ask? Give me one name.

-I could give you ten. -Give me just one!

One!

Do you know how many deserters claim that they have served in the Waffen SS?

People like you would have killed to be with us,

but I wouldn't have taken you.

What are you?

CIA? Or Mossad?

Who sent you?

You're not the first one to try that.

This is absurd.

-You want proof? -What are you doing?

Pay attention.

You know what this is?

That was a tattoo with my blood type.

Everyone in the Waffen-SS had one of these.

I had it removed after the war, because there were people looking for me.

And you still claim that I'm an American spy or a dirty Jew?

Ernst...

I'm sorry about that.

This is ridiculous.

No, an American tried to infiltrate us. Since then he's very suspicious!

I prepared that video we have of the Westerbork camp in Holland.

-Thank you so much. -Of course. That's what we're here for.

My mother and sister died before they were put on the transport,

but I hope to see my father.
