All language subtitles for 2016 - Secret of the Midwife - HEBAMME

For weeks we were now on
our way to our new home.

My margrave had been assigned
to me by Meissen for my war.

In Franconian I had recruited craftsmen,
peasants, maids, and servants.

I promised to protect them.
No one should bear more violence.

I had seen too many
dead in battles.

I just wanted to get one.

I would build a village far
from any arbitrariness.

Where we could live in peace.

I do not know if I
could have done it,

If our path had not
crossed with her.

(A horse is beating.)

Do you live with a girl
who understands birth?

I'll lead you to her.

It also heals furuncles,
ulcers, and abdominal cramps.

She is a child of the Lord.
Your prayer cord is quite thin.

So often she talks to him
and asks him for mercy.

Stand up!
Go with her!

Mistress, a birth may take a long time.

It will be wanting us as a labor force.

Hop in!

(A woman screams.)

Where were you so long?

You are there to help
your sister at birth.

I got help.

By bringing you to Bauerpack?

This girl understands
herself at birth.

She lives with the shepherd at the river.

(Pain cries of woman)

I know who you are.

You have the muteness
of your mother.

Make sure that the whine has an end!

And finally help me to a son!

Otherwise I'll cut off your hands and feet.

"Our Father, who art in heaven.

Blessed be your name..."

The girl understands herself on birth.
She can help you.

(Loud moaning)

Leave us alone!

I get fresh towels.

(Sob)

The baby is dead.
It poisoned her body.

She will also die.
I can do nothing more for her.

Wait! To the right, you come
straight into the yard.

Guard!

What do you want?
Where is the girl?

What girl?

Help!

(Bleating, hoofing)

Hildebrand!

Will you bring me my little
bowl and my spoon, please?

Who's got my bowl
with the mash now?

That's not funny.
You ate upstairs.

But there she is not.

Karl, do you have it?

Hedwig!
Father!

Nice to see you again.

Where is your husband?
Otto is on the hunt.

But he'll be back soon.

Come in.
- Follow me!

If Otto joins our covenant,
Henry the lion roars.

Otto hunting better wild boar.
They taste better.

Lions are tough.

Come with the wine!
Was a long day.

Meat!
- Me too.

Albrecht...

Albrecht!

Why did not you send a messenger?
I expected you tomorrow.

We've ridden through.
The circumstance does not tolerate a delay.

I've heard of it.

Heinrich attacked Bremen.

The bastard kills and
burns everything. And we?

We hide. The lion roars,
and we do nothing.

Yes, cholera is to bring the lion!

What must still happen
before the Emperor stops,

His protective hand over him?

Otto, it's up to you.

We need a sign from you.
I beg you.

Yes / Yes.

That's a good idea.

Eat and drink, strengthen
yourself, then we'll see more.

Do not rush, we'll do something.

We need you together.

Otto!
- Slow, slow, friends.

Have you no influence on your husband?
Would you just give him the bed?

It was not my idea to
take Otto to the consort.

But he will join the alliance.

We've heard that many times.
The lion plunders the whole country.

This time it is different.

It should be like in Altenburg.

He believes he can only win if
Knight Christian is with him.

He's leading the plow
rather than his sword.

Right. Christian will
build his own village.

Otto will give him a fief.

But then Christian must
go to war with him.

And you will finally
get what you want.

To your well-being, father.

On the Eure. Let's hope that
Christian is here soon.

What do you think, Father,
do we create it before dark?

There are to be many robbers.

Trust only the Lord.
He is at our side.

Come, stay together!

Hildebrand!
You steal dinner.

Got you. A thief!

(Cries)

What's going on here?
- She wanted to steal an apple.

This bitch.
What did you want? Steal what?

Let's cut our hands!
- What's going on here?

We have a thief, sir.
She wanted to steal apples.

Sir.

Is that true?
Did you steal us?

Hack your hand!
Come here, you!

Hildebrand!

This is not our country. It
is not up to us to decide.

We will hand them over to the Landvogt.

Bind them to the car!

Come here!

(Cries)

Hold still!

Come, stay together!

Here you have your things back.

Stop!

Stay together!

(Cries)

Armed yourselves!

Hide!

Go to the others!

Go away! Go away!

Are you going away?

(Primal)

Oh my God, he does not move.

Hildebrand, he does not move.

Is he dead?

Small swallows.
Are you?

Father.

Where is the girl?

I cut them off.
They would have killed her.

Clear the dead!

(Woman screams)

The child comes too early.

Wiprecht, we must go on.

Horrible, poor boy.

Let us pray.

"Lord, hear my voice, and pay
attention to my loud plea.

Would you pay attention to our
sins, Lord, who could stand?

But with you is forgiveness, so
that you may serve in reverence.

In the name of the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen."

(Woman screams)

It can not get out, it's stuck.

We have to pull the child out.

No, she has lost too much blood.

If we do nothing, both will die.

Lord, we must do something.

The next village is still wide.
Do what you have to do.

Did you hear?
Keep your legs up!

Griseldis, take your time! No!

Are you ready?
- She will not survive that.

What are you doing here? Cut to
the devil, where you belong!

Come, Hiltrud, come.
- No!

Why does not she survive this?
- She loses her last blood.

Can you help her?
She is a child herself.

Come on!

The child is wrong.
I have to turn it.

Where do you want to get that from?
You're fooling us.

(Whimper)

She will kill both.
And you allow this?

Murderess! I told you.

Set them up!
Set up, whole.

And hold it firmly on each side!

You have to press.

OK?
- Yes.

Press, go!

Press, press!

Pressing, pressing!

I feel my head.

It is there.

Done, done!

(Baby cries)

It's full.
- He's quiet now.

Can you fix this?
- Yes, but it will take.

Luke helps you.

Sir? I must speak to you.

What do you want?

(To whisper)

She stole.

The Lord wants to speak to you.

What is your name?
- Marthe.

And how can you do that?

My mother was a mother.

Why are not you with her?
- She's dead, it's been a long time.

We come from Franconia
and move to Mei�en.

Markgraf Otto needs
efficient people there.

Are you a good man?

Yes.

You heard it, Marthe
will accompany us.

We can use someone like her well.
If she wants.

Then take something to eat.

Come over.

Thank you Mr.

Who was this girl?

I felt that she hid a secret.

It scared the settlers.

But in those days I had no
time to think about it.

We had to go on.

It's getting better.
Come, sit down!

The skull has broken through.

I have to wash out the wound.
This can hurt.

I need a piece of silver.

I need a piece of silver.

Hildebrand, you have a piece of silver.

Yes.
- She needs it for the boy.

Now she can pay herself.

I must close the skull with it.

Closing...

Get up!

But be careful!

When will I get it again?

Not at all.
It grows with the bone.

What?

Not that you'll be
bothering Bertram.

Oh Jonas, that's so funny.

(Laughter)
Very funny, ha ha.

Thank you, Grete.
- You are terrified by your avarice.

Emma, can you take him short?

Thank you very much.

Does Jonas already know?

What?
- That you expect a baby.

Is it from him?

I dont know.

There are riders.

Rider, rider!
There are riders.

Greetings.

Have you seen a girl?
A small savage.

We have not seen anyone for days.

The girl has the consort of
our Lord and her unborn child

Miserably.

As I said, we have not
seen anyone for days.

Hopp!

We move on.
Pack your things!

We break up.
Come on, grab your wagons!

Father is worse.

Stop! Hold on!

Emma, help him!
Here, Father.

You must drink.
- Thank you.

(Voices) "She has the devil in her body.
Kill her!"

"Look carefully, Marthe!"
"The woman is evil."

"Marthe shall not be like her."

What is she giving him to drink, sir?

Why does not she burn his wound?

Does he have temperature?

Can you help him?

You know why she
does not help him.

Because he is a man of God.

Griseldis, stop the chatter!

I've seen it.
She has turned away from him.

Is that correct?
- No.

He is sick.
No one can help him.

It is not the wound.
- You lie.

You let him die like the
child of the fortress.

No, it was already dead.

It died unbaptized. A soul more
for the devil, her master.

It's enough, Griseldis.
- Stop doing that!

My wife is already right.
It is true.

A bone that is supposed
to grow with a coin!

She just wants to help.

It's enough, stop it!
You should stop.

He does not breathe anymore.

Marthe, Marthe!

No, my God.

"... and forgive us our
guilt as we forgive our..."

"Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in
caelo, and in terra." Amen. "

Come on, we have to talk.

My friends, you know what it's all about.

This girl is a danger to us.

She has a child on her conscience.

Since she is with us,
things happen here...

We will soon reach Sch�ppchenberg.

And we are without spiritual assistance.

I tell the Lord to
leave the camp...

Why is the ox not clamped?

I speak in your name.

We do not move until
she leaves the camp.

She travels with us, she helped us.

It is salvific.
This can be of benefit to us.

The riders did not search
for it without reason.

We are cursed when
she travels with us.

It belongs to us, and
no one sends them away.

But whoever wants to repent should do so.

Good.

Then we take the seed
and the sheep with us.

We paid for it.
With the silver of the margrave.

Listen, that's all we have.

We left everything else.
That comes with us.

Take what you need.
But the cars stay here.

You have nothing to say to us.
We went along voluntarily.

So.

Do not take any consideration!
Without a car we can not make it.

Have you all lost your mind?

Without Marthe Hiltrud would have died.

Our former masters have hurt us.

Instead of wages there was beating.
Knight Christian is different.

He was born without land.
Everything he is, he has worked out.

If he wants to take Marthe,
we should do that.

I trust him.

We made it. On the other
hand is our country.

Come!

Herewith I take you as a lieutenant.

And swear to be a
righteous judge and judge

And to protect thee and
yours from mischief.

Take the land I
promised you as a fief

To legitimate possession and
bring it to flourishing.

I want you to accompany us.
- To Meissen?

Yes, a blacksmith has a suffering.
I want you to look at this.

I hereby take you to the feudal lord.

I swear to God to serve you,

To protect you and your friends,
both in war and in peace.

N / A?

Do not you want to see the banquet?

Come over!

(Music)

We can not do that.
- Whom should it disturb?

Come over!

This is the Markgr�fin Hedwig.
And this is the margrave.

Randolf is also sitting there.

Otto's strongest vassal and
Christian's worst enemy.

It is said that Randolf
had murdered his wife.

I raise my cup to our
new feudal lord.

As you know, I owe
Christian my life.

Without him I would be terribly
dead before the gates of Altenburg.

On Christian!
One of us.

The castle was once my home.
Now I felt strange.

Too many of the feudal men
sought salvation in battle.

Above all Randolf, who did not
shrink back in his greed.

Christian!

Good to see you.

Is the dry thing all following?

Well, do not go too
hard with our hero!

Otto should be grateful for everything.

Should not we cross
the blades again?

Eieiei, swords can also rust.

Beautiful rub with linseed
oil, then it does not break.

I thought you would
not let you see.

Come here!

This is Marthe.

Marthe will look at your leg.

That hurts?

I do not think you can hurt me.

Oh, that hurt.

Lie down!

You should not contradict what?

It is not the leg.

It is the back.

(Scream)

Au, au, au, girls, girls!

Girl!

Do you want to kill me?

Is better.

You will have to spare the leg.

Is no longer stiff.

The Markgr�fin sends me.

She wants to talk
to her if you can.

What is? Come over!

Come over!
Mistress?

I can not remember anyone
who is our gun master

A scream.

How did you heal his leg?
- It was not the leg.

The pain came from his
back, he was crooked.

Crooked...

You know, one of my sons is sick.

He has a fever that nobody knows.

And sometimes he becomes unconscious.
Would you look at him?

Good. But you can not go.

Susanne, prepare her a bath and
get her something to wear.

This is the best place to burn.

And then get me when she is so far.

Look, there is a beauty
among all the muck.

It's enough.

Now we'll see Dietrich.

Dear.

This is Marthe.
She will examine you.

Was he left behind?
- Mhm.

I need salt.

Throw it to the ground!

What are you doing there?

Oh, Master Lehnhard.
This is Marthe.

She came with the
settlers and is healed.

This is a girl.
- Your judgment is important to me.

It's about Dietrichs Wohl.
- Such a treatment is complex.

It weakens him.

How are you talking to me?

Leech is the safest
means of attack.

If you do not want someone
to investigate Dietrich,

Wait outside!

Go on.

I need rosemary tincture.

Or the strongest wine you have.

And I need more
blankets and a warmer.

You came with the settlers.

Do you know Ritter Christian?

Yes.

And his horse?
- You mean Drago.

Drago belonged to my father.

But they could not ride
him, he was too wild.

They wanted to kill him,
everyone was afraid of him.

But then Christian
knightly tamed him.

No one else did that.

Drago is the fastest
horse I know.

What is he lacking?

I can lower his fever,
but it comes back.

He has the disease of travelers.

Ague?

How do you know all that?

The Margrave would like to see you.
- Equal.

Immediately. And the
girl you will bring.

Is this Marthe?

I was told that you
were at my son's bed.

What do you allow yourself?

I asked them to.
- I did not ask you.

What is your name?
- Marthe.

What?
- Marthe.

The Medicus is a learned
man, he is in my service.

Why do you question his judgment?

I should have you
whipped for it.

Forgive me, sir.
She travels with me.

If she did something
wrong, I'm guilty.

Then you better take care
of your rabble, huh?

And hold on to you, soon we will
go into the battle together.

Yes Mr.

I count on you, Christian.

They come back.

Sir! Welcome, sir.
- Great!

Lord, as we have discussed.
This leads to a straight road.

We divided everything into parcels.

The smithy comes to the left.
See what we have done!

Here please. Everything
as you wish.

The gateway to our new village.

Large, powerful, with
a real fall lattice.

To keep enemies if we have any.

Here is the market square. On the
market square, our Mother of God.

Then the well.
And next to it the taverns.

Thanks.
- Thank you Mr.

It was a long and
arduous journey.

And some of us have
been sacrificed.

A lot of work is coming to us.
But look at the country!

It will reward us richly
if we know how to use it.

Christian village!

Yes, Christiansdorf!

Our village grew and grew. Every
day he did what he could.

Here I was no knight, no warrior.

I was one of them,
just as I wanted.

Our dream of a peaceful
life was close at hand.

The wound looks good.
You are rich.

I often let my head go.

A horse team and rider!

My mistress.
- Please stand up.

I regret that your coming
was not announced to me.

This was not my intention either.
I want to talk to Marthe.

Comes.

I want you to come along.

He is in very bad shape.

(Voices) "... Disaster over you!"

"Shut up!"
"The devil's wife!"

"Kill her!"

"Marthe shall not be like her."

And?

I'll prepare a Sud for him.

(Neigh)

Dietrich, he feels that
you are not doing well.

I will never ride on Drago.

But once you get well again.

Come, jump on it!

Why did you get stuck?

I do not know what you mean.

When you examined him, you
were frightened. Why?

You have to tell me he's my son.

He will die.

When?
- Not now.

But I do not think he'll
be up next summer.

His body is too weak.

Where do you want to get that from?

Forgive me, you are right.
Nobody can know that.

I want an answer.

I can not talk about it.
- Why?

I want it from you.

Dietrich means everything to me.

You should experience him if he
is better, how clever he is.

I could not stand if he died.

Do not force me, I do not want that.

I'm sorry, I did not
want to push you.

What you say remains among us.

You're welcome.

I can see it.

It's like a light.

It is cold.

Dark.

I can see when it goes out.

And there's nothing
you can do for him?

May I help you?

Karl!

Forgiveness.

Luke, with strength alone you will not win.
Use your mind!

Lord, forgive me!
- What's up?

Marthe needs someone to look after her.
She must get married.

Wiprecht would take her,
even without a dowry.

He needs someone to take care
of the household, the children.

What does Marthe say?

Get them!

Marthe, come on!
Christian wants to talk to you.

With the head, mind over force.

Marthe, do you want to marry?

Would you like to marry Wiprecht?
He needs a woman.

No, I do not want to marry.

Well, then I see no
reason to hurry.

Emperor Frederick sent messengers
far out of the country.

All princes are asked
to travel to W�rzburg.

There will be the court
day in six weeks.

All right.

The Emperor needs us.

(Whispering)

And? What does the messenger say?

The Emperor wants to hold
a court day in W�rzburg.

All princes united.
The feud is to be ended.

He wants to force the
lion to make peace.

Whereupon do you want to go? The
Emperor is on Henry's side.

Do not you understand that
now is the time to strike?

Everyone is ready. And also Knight
Christian goes with the battle.

This is the opportunity.
If we defeat the lion,

We can make peace ourselves.

How do you speak to me?

Where is your place?

Here in Meissen at my side,
or at your father's court?

You have the hatred of your father.
What do you know about the war?

When we go against Henry, the
blood will soak the fields.

I am ready for it.

But I am also ready
to make peace.

How kindly you are.

When you speak to our
son, you are hard.

But before the lion you
hide like a coward.

So it is true what one is telling.
You were with the Benedictines.

As a child. But then
my brother died.

And my father needed an heir.

Forgive me for invading
you so immorally.

But I have to speak to you.

Your men are ready to
go to war for Otto.

And now they are disappointed.

What do you mean?
- There will be no rich prey.

The Emperor invites to the court
day, he wants to make peace.

And Otto will follow.

Somebody has to make sure
that Otto can not go back.

It is not enough for you to
be the wife of the margrave.

You have higher goals.

We have something in common.

What do you think,

What happens when Henry's
men attack a village?

Here with us.

At this time.

Then Otto could no
longer hold out.

Let us pray.

(Cries)

Henry's men attacked
the Mark Meissen.

They attacked peasants and
burnt down a village.

Markgraf Otto demands your feud.

You shall come to Mei�en.
Brecht still today!

Thanks. Let the village have
something to eat and drink.

Otto von Meissen calls for the
feudal lordship of our Lord.

Knight Christian must go to war.

Henry the Lion attacked Otto's
country, and he strikes back.

We are placed on our own, without
the protection of our Lord.

You called for me?

Drago has broken the shackles.

I need something on the road,
so it does not get any worse.

I make an ointment,
camphor, and rosemary.

It's wrong what your doing.

You are going to war, though the
seeds are missing in the fields.

Hildebrand will fix everything
as long as I am gone.

And you think that's enough?

Without you, it will not be possible.

Marthe, others also have
to leave their villages.

But their villages
are many years old.

And the first winter will be
the hardest, you have said.

That's what my father gave me.

He got it from a nobleman
because he saved his life.

If the need is great, bring it
to the chamberlain in Meissen.

From what you get for it,
you can buy what you need.

Are you serious?

This is from your father.
How should I sell it?

Marthe, I'll be back.

Do you need anything else, sir?

No thanks.

Finished? We have to go.

Take good care of my people, Hildebrand.

I'll be back soon.

We wish you a happy hand
and an early return.

We need you here.

Thank you.
- Farewell.

The Lord be with you!

Heinrich went too far.

He believes he can
do what he wants.

But we will show him where
his place is on earth.

He will bite his teeth.

Before Magdeburg, we
encounter Albrecht's troops.

There we join them.

So, let's determine our army leader.

(Calls) Randolf! Randolf!

Randolf!
Randolf!

Ritter Randolf is a brave man.

But I tell you, courage alone
will not lead us to victory.

In Altenburg the victory was ours.
And why?

Because we fought
together and wisely.

And there was one among you,

Who has distinguished himself
by more than just his courage.

Knight Christian, stand out.

Christian, just to.
Yes, come!

He is an unfreier, his
father was a farmer.

Would you like to
deny Christian honor?

Has he ever denied you or
your companion the escort?

Is one here in the hall, only one,

The bad thing about
knight Christian?

He should say it now.
Come on, talk!

Speak!

So, speak!
Who is to guide you?

Christian!
- Christian!

Randolf!

Christian!
- Christian!

Randolf!
Christian! Christian!

Christian!
- Christian!

You have made a good choice.

Christian!
- Christian!

Now the lion has shouted.

What do you play for a game?

Pst.

Have you lost your mind?
Will you fool me?

Let me go!
- So you can not treat me.

What are you talking about?
- Just from this farce.

We had an agreement.
- I beg you.

I have no influence
on these decisions.

Without your advice, Christian would
never have become an army leader.

My dear, you want
to win the war.

Is not it your interest that
the best lead the army?

I will let Otto know
what you are doing.

Yes, please, try it!

I wish you much success.

What do you think
he will believe?

His faithful consort?

Or the boundless knight,

Who spreads lies
from injured vanity.

Hm?
Lie?

Did you want to say something?

Christian!

You have come far.

It just asks how.

On the side of the margrave
or in the lap of his wife?

You're not just insulting me.

But also the margrave's wife.

Lord, what does the dog care?

Stop! On the spot!

Stop!

How dare you pull the
gun in my castle?

He deserved it.
I am your strongest vassal.

My men are going
to battle for you.

Your men? You all live in
my country, my country.

My!

And your men have sworn
to me the fidelity. Me!

We are at war.
What he has done is betrayal.

Treason is punished with death.

You have always faithfully served me.

So I will spare his life.

But your troops are coming to me.
And you yourself will stay here.

And your guilt in the
service of the margrave.

So, take off!

He will come back safely.

These are Albrecht's men.

Have the Wettins finally
left their castles?

Do you welcome the Margrave?

Are you the leader?
Then come along.

Follow the river Elbe.

In the villages they
need flour and turnips.

The men are missing in the fields.
Then continue west.

For the settlers in the
hollow is iron and seed.

Do not lose time!
Return before it gets cold.

Are you this Christian knight?
- Yes.

How many men do you lead?
- Two dozen.

Does Otto's margrave
have any more to offer?

Well then. Lead your men
to the end of the valley.

We wait there for the others.

At New Moon we attack the Lion's Castle.
So get ready.

What have these men done?
They served the lion.

We all are in someone's service.
This is not a crime.

For me. H�a!

Who is the blacksmith here?

There is enough.

Here, take!
- Thank you.

Also for all?
- Just take it.

Have you no wine?

The bread can hardly be eaten.
Drop your teeth.

Forgive us, we have no other bread.

You!

Bring me wine!

I dont have any.
- Then please take care!

Look, the sweet little bird!

I know you, do not you?

From Meissen.

Look at me when I talk to you!

You were with Christian, right?

Is this his village?

This coffin? And the
rulers are his peasants?

Does he care well for you women?

What have you got there?

Show it!

A knight with whom I fought
had one thing round his neck.

Thieves rabble! The margrave
lets you cut off your hands.

You did not stole it, did you?

He gave it to you, did not he?

Beautiful girl...

All alone here?

A scream and I'll
slit your throat.

I knew Christian had a
weakness for farmers.

His stable smell
will not let go.

(Cries)

Who wants?

You?

No no!

No mice!

Thank you.

Do me the favor and tell your
nobleman of our meeting.

I would be lucky if he asked
me for a double fight.

You should get married, Marthe.

You need someone to protect you.

Yes.

If Wiprecht still wants me,

I agree with the wedding.

Blow this blade well!

The scout is back.

Have you seen troops?
- 300 men.

They will reach Henry's
fortress in three days.

We can not wait, we must attack.

Otto, we can overrun the
lion and his castle.

It is impossible to
take it in three days.

When their troops reach us,
they attack from two sides.

My prince, I fear no
battle, but it is futile.

I have not come here to hide.

We will attack and
if it is the last.

There is another possibility.

We must stop the troops.

Have you lost your mind?
- An open battle against Henry?

No open battle, an attack.

When the camp burns and
they lose their horses,

The lion needs days
to gather his troops.

And who should be so crazy
to lead this attack?

Give me ten men.

So be it.

"Is God for us, who
is then against us?

The Lord, who did not spare
his Son, but gave for us,

How should he not
give us all with him?

Neither death nor life, neither
angels nor heirs, no powers... "

"Thus saith the Lord:
I trust you forever.

For the bridegroom of my faithfulness,
thou shalt know the Lord... "

So I ask you, Marthe.

Do you want to love and honor this
man whom God entrusts to you?

And the marriage with him
lead in good as in bad days,

In health, and sickness, till
death be forgiven, answer:

Yes I do.

Christian, watch out!

Yes I do.

Come here!

Come on, you're my wife.

Undress yourself!

You shall undress.

Say three times the father-in-law.
I'll see if you can.

"Our Father, who art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy name, unto
us thy kingdom come... "

They are back again.

Come all!

A young knight.
Did you see Christian?

He is in his hut.

Get Wiprecht, he wanted
to speak to our Lord.

Forgive.

You're hurt.
Can I look at the wound?

I ride to the next
village, Father Roland.

I'll get my things.

How did this happen?

Who supplied you?

A Feldscher. Marthe,
who hit you?

I ask for your blessing, Lord.
He's married.

You have my blessings.
Who is the lucky one?

Lord, rest first.
The trip was exhausting.

What had I expected?

The order of the world left
no connection between us.

In the battle, the thought of
Marthe alone kept me alive.

But now we were farther
apart than ever before.

Wiprecht!

Yes?

Do not think I have not seen
the traces in her face.

You will treat them decently.

Lord, the Markgr�fin is here.

Mistress.

Why do not you celebrate the victory at Hof?

Somebody has to burrow the dead.

Horrible, such a young fellow!

But one day Henry will
pay for suffering,

Which he brought over the country.
- We'll all pay for that.

I know you blame me on the war.

But you will understand me.

Only when Henry is
down there is peace.

He is not yet defeated. We
have won only one battle.

I know.
- What brings you to me?

My son.

Dietrich is sick.

She said he will die.

Who? Marthe?

How does she know?

You do not have to protect them from me.

I know their gift.

I know she sees things
that others can not see.

She could help Dietrich.
But something prevents her from doing so.

She is afraid of her abilities.

Give me the girl.

In a monastery you can
help her to use her gifts.

Do you think Marthe wants that too?

They can not know what
is good for them.

Forgive me my open words, Mistress.

It's always up to you, and
Marthe will help your son.

But I will not force her to anything.

You have sworn allegiance to Otto.

If he wants it, you have to do that.

But you want that, and not him.

Is it not enough for
us to go to war?

Marthes place is here in the village.

I know you will respect that.

It was our first spring.

We had survived the winter, and
everyone was full of confidence.

I'll take the sack.

Thou shalt not bear.

But something did not let go of me.

Marthe.

I wanted to be close
to her and could not.

Salt, fresh salt!

Yes!

Precious.

Barley? For barley
there is a half shell.

Who has what?
The most beautiful school.

Because it gets warm under the ass.
I'm glad, thank you.

Vegetables?
- And flour.

A beautiful stone.

All the best to you and your village!
- You also.

Christian!

God, look at this!

Oje, oje.
- Without the salt you are easier.

Come, help, at the same time.

Hurry

And again!
- One two Three!

Come here!
Older.

Have you hurt yourself?
- Yes, by the stone.

I've already seen this in Goslar.

This is not a normal stone.
- Rather?

This is Bleierz.

What?
- What is Bleierz?

Silver.
- Silver?

What!

We have already transported.
But so much in one spot!

Silver!
- Madness.

In the end your whole
village stands on silver.

On silver.
- On silver!

Attention!

So rich silver ore

They have not yet
seen in Goslar.

With God...

The stars are really good.

You have to get miners, many.

But that is difficult,
the winter will come.

People need to be cared for.
We wait until spring.

I'll send you millet, barley,
and everything you need.

The silver makes us rich.
But we should give ourselves time.

We have not.

The right of the mountain lies with the Emperor.

To him belongs all that is deeper
in the earth than a plow digs.

And now, after our
victory over his cousin,

He will hardly allow us
to dismantle the silver.

So we have to get as much out
of the earth as possible,

Before the Emperor learns it.

Lord, the people in my
village have traveled far.

They have been badly
treated in their homeland.

I do not want to expose
them to arbitrariness.

These people, as you call them,
are entrusted to me by God.

You distrust me with them.

My prince, if I may
say something.

If you want to spare
Christian and his men,

Why do you not proclaim
the right of the right?

This could speed up
the matter very much.

There will be enough
people to win the ore.

Truly, Randolf is right.

We will not be able to get the
silver out of the ground sooner.

Then rascals will cross my village.

They will not have anything to eat
and they will take it by force.

What do you think?

(The music is silenced.)

Do you want to make me a fool?

What does not matter?

I consider everything.

Play on!

(Beat)

The Markgr�fin wants to speak to you.

They will overpower
you, thieves, despair,

You and your village. You will
only keep the misfortune.

The silver will take Otto.

You will need someone
here to help you.

Otherwise Randolf will
take it all over.

And you are?

With your permission, but
how would you stop Otto,

To proclaim the general right of mining?

This does not have to be your concern.

And what is the price?

You know him.

Marthe.

I want to help her.
- So she can help you.

This is when you are Lord.
- That's no help, Markgr�fin.

You also have to make
difficult decisions.

It is up to you whether you want
to protect your village or not.

I had no choice.

I had to send the people to
whom I wanted to be so close.

Maybe forever.

I want you to go to the monastery.

The healing women there
will teach and receive you.

I need nothing to learn,
I am needed here.

Marthe, that is not a request.
It is a gift from the Markgr�fin.

I thank her for her generosity.

But she can not decide about me.

But I.

I want you to pack your things.

Luke will take you there tomorrow morning.

And who should take care of everything here?

Take care of your father!
I'll be back.

What do you want?

Do I need a reason
to visit my husband?

At this time of day?

The silver will make you rich.

All of us. And no one here will
have to eat more of pewter pots.

This is not what worries me.

Rather?

When people come here,
the Emperor will know.

Would not it be better to dig
quietly over a longer period?

What do you think?

So you think I should
let Christian try?

Why trust him so much, hey?

He is the only one to whom
such a task can be entrusted.

I am concerned only
with the silver.

Do not sell me for dumb, yes?

I know that this is not all.

Do not you think I've imagined
our marriage differently?

Go down immediately from me.
Get down!

You are only interested in
hunting and your whores.

You are satisfied with what you have.

But I'm not.

I am so much younger than you.

And if you are long dead,
I will still experience,

As one of my sons will be
far more than a margrave.

So let me do what
I think is right.

And you can do what
you think is right.

In the end, it will be
the best for us all.

Come together!

I have to speak with you.
Bring people together.

Comes.

The Markgraf has given us the
permission to win the silver.

Wonderful!

He will send us material
for huts and digging.

I'll get miners in Goslar.

Yes, we are farmers, we can not.

Much things will change.

But you will continue to do your work.

You can rely on that.

Then the village will be prosperous.

It is a pleasure for
me to tell you,

That we will take
up a peasant girl.

A peasant girl has no dowry.

She will go to Joseph's house
as long as she is here.

This is Marthe.

Mucking.

You said she was afraid?

She wants to hide it,
especially from herself.

We must ask the Lord for patience.

It's up to her, she has to want it.

Forgive me my urge, but
my son is seriously ill.

I do not have the time.
- I know.

But only she can
determine her gift.

I have to learn.
When do I begin?

Do you know this plant?
- Masterwurz.

What do you need them for?
- Wound healing and stomach ache.

And those?
- Liebst�ckel, against the full body.

Coltsfoot, against cough.

I can not teach you
anything you already know.

You sow, get up!

High with you!

Come on, come on!

Come on!

Come on!

High, let's go!

High with you!

Get up, up with you!

Stand up!

High with you, you lazy bastard!

Do not look like that! It must
get up, otherwise it is settled.

Stop it!

This is my only horse.

Go! I take care of it.

The wound must be washed out.

Rabies.

It has the disaster in the mouth.

It will die.

What? I...

I do not know that.
- Yes, you do.

(He murmurs syllables.)

(Voices) "We ask you,
let him rest in peace

And raise him up in the day,

Whom thou hast appointed
according to thy promise.

Give it to the eternal pleasures.
Do not remember his sins.

And give that his end
is full of peace.

Heal the grief of the living
by your comforting spirit.

Give us all a blessed ending
through Jesus Christ, your Son. "

"Oh God, what is that?"

"He moved."

"She's with the devil."
- "Did you see it?"

"Holy Mother of God, protect us."

"Heaven is with us."

Here you can see the Silver Line.

In the village everybody was
happy about the silver.

They did not follow the
melting furnaces at all.

We took the ore out of the ground,
and some dreamed of wealth.

I could not guess how
high the price was.

That's why I'm here? This is
what you want to teach me?

I do not want that.

(Woman screams)

"Shut up!"
"The woman is possessed."

"Your daughter shall
not be like her."

(Neigh)

Holt Marthe, please.
Dietrich needs them.

We have no more time.

Remains.

You must come, please.

What?
- The son of the margrave...

He is here.
He is dying.

Joseph shall do it, he shall help him.

He is old.
He never cured people.

The boy needs you.

My mother...

She said she taught me.

That I can not help it,
that I am only a child.

Only one child.

"She has the devil in her body.
Kill her!"

"The woman is possessed."

I had to watch, so I
would not be like them.

Your mother has protected you.

It was their decision.

Just because people do not
understand it does not mean,

That it is repugnant to God.

There is nothing wrong
with keeping life.

What you can do is not your own.

It belongs to the people.

Do not be afraid of it.

Christian, the margrave is
waiting for you. Follow me.

Christian!

Sir.

Let me embrace you!

Hildebrand.

They are hard.

Send the men to the hall!

They are to eat and drink
as much as they like.

You accompany me on the hunt.
We meet at the Devil's Head.

Hey, this is not a
place for a small man.

I just wanted to caress him.

Dietrich...

I thought you were in the monastery.
- That's me, too.

You look changed.
- That's just the dress.

Help me up!

We'll do better together.

So, it's enough. You
have to spare a bit.

I have to tell Father.

What happened?

He has not had a fever
for three weeks.

Now he has left his camp
and is no longer holding.

Thats not what I meant.

Marthe!
- I have to.

See you later.

Christian, come here!
We have been waiting for you.

Wish a successful hunting!
We will make rich booty.

And we divide ourselves, three men each.

Christian comes to me, Friedhelm, too.

And you're driving the drivers.

Here we go!

(Loud whine)

Further apart!

What are you gazing at? Would rather be
with the hunters. Do not hit anything.

(Animal cries)
Oh.

Comes with!

(Cries of a young animal)
Pst.

(The screams are louder.)

A trap.
- poacher.

It calls his mother.

Wait!

Give me the horn!
- What you up to?

(Horn signals)

It comes from there.
We want to be the first.

Leave the boobies! He who
can not ride shall creep.

Come, quickly away!

Sit down.

Rest and ride back to Mei�en.

Here! Come here!

Come on!

What has happened?

A bear mother attacked him.
Hol Marthe!

Get Master Lehnhard, quickly!

Burgvogt, if you want the margrave
to live, then bring Marthe.

Mrs. Hedwig, the
margrave is wounded.

Randolf lured us to the trap.

He knew that the bear mother
would defend her boy.

Christian...

Where have you been, huh?

Why were not you with me?

In Altenburg you are always...

... always by my side.

What happened is no accident.

You must understand that
silver will change everything.

No longer will that be the
strongest of all the feudal men.

But the one who bestows them.

This is not Otto's world.

The old man...

God already knows what he is doing.

Christian, will you
come to my house?

We both, we...

It would be so much to us.

The margrave has lost much blood.

But he will survive.

What do you want from me?

I thought we should clear that
before you return to your village.

What is there to clarify, Randolf?

I'm going to make sure you
get enough silver today.

The margrave is no longer
in a position to do so.

What is this thing about?

Well, well, well.

We do not want to begin
cooperation in the dispute.

Everyone will do their own thing.

You will get enough silver.

Let me say one thing: Do
not eat me with trifles!

You certainly do not want
me to come to your village

And show you how to do this.

Hedwig would never allow that.

Do not disappoint me!

What's wrong with you?
This must go faster.

Not sleep!
Go on, go on!

Hurry, men!

How long will this continue?
We can not.

The oxen must be on the field.
And we need a break, sir.

We continue.
- But we have to catch the harvest.

They did not understand.

I just wanted to prevent worse.

Randolf was capable of anything.
We had to satisfy the greed.

But what could I expect?

Go, girl, faster!

Emma!

Emma!

Emma!

We bring them into the house.

(Sob)

Now all the men out!

Jonas, Christian, all out!

Press! Pressing, do you hear?

And press, press, press!

Do not stop!

You have lost too much
blood, you have to go on.

You can not stop now, Emma.
Go on and on!

(Cries of pain)

Lot, one, two, three and three...

Yes! Next, next, next!

You did it.

You did it.
- Show...

Quite quiet.

What is?

What about my child?

No, Martha!

What about the child...

(She screams incomprehensibly.)

All good.

No!

No!

Oh God, no.

No Please not.

I'm sorry for what happened.

I want you to return
to work tomorrow.

When the melting furnaces
go out, we lose days.

Do you think it was my fault?

No, do not say that!
You can not help it.

It does not help, we go on.

Take up the work again, take
your tool into your hand!

Go to the devices!

Where is Christian?
- In the forest, beat wood.

What is to happen?
How far do you want to go?

It's all about silver.
We have nothing of it.

What do you think of talking to me?

The people here believe in you.
They would give you their lives.

You should not take advantage
of this for the margrave.

Marthe, I can not disobey
my master's command.

Then he is to fight
with us for his food.

He takes what he wants,
and you obey him.

And that from your mouth, yes?

A thief, a thief, who
surrenders to the first man,

Who leaves her in his house and his bed.

Stay!

Marthe...

Marthe, Marthe...

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

More air!

Hermann, we stop.
- What?

We stop. Stop it!

Goes home!
It's enough for today.

We take the time we need.

Stop it, it's enough.

You should go home.

Last time it was more.

You leave behind.

Do you get the silver yourself, huh?

No sir.
- We do what we can.

But we must also think of the harvest.

That is not enough.

I told you, take
care of the silver.

You'll eat from me.

With permission, but the village
must be able to provide itself.

What do you allow
yourself to speak to me?

Show respect!

I've never let it
go against you.

A quarter less than last time.

I warned you.

I will announce the
free mining right.

Everyone is to come

And get the ore out of the ground.

And for this to happen,

I will send Randolf to you.

I beg you, sir.
- You're not capable of doing so.

Randolf will get my people.
- You can leave.

I beg you, Lord, decide
if you are better.

I waive your advice.

Go.

Go.

Go!

Go.

Lord, I do not understand.
Where do people want to live?

They will have their camp at the river.

Who is to supply them in winter?
They take what they need.

Anyone who uses your
services must pay you.

They will not do that.
- Hildebrand!

A vogt will come.

You all know him, it's Randolf.

He will only monitor the ore mining.

Nothing happens to you,
in my honor as a knight.

Now go back to your work.

Why Randolf?
He will provoke you.

I know, but he will not succeed.

And if so?

Why should it?

What about you, Marthe?

Marthe, come, it's late.

Thief! He's a thief.
He stole my apples.

The woman is lying.
- Open the bag!

If you want something, you pay for it.
Roger that?

So welcome to us.

We must get along as neighbors.
Christian!

My friend.

I look forward to sharing
everything with you.

Come on!

Go back to your work.

(Laughter)

What?

(laugh)

Hey!

What do you want here?
- Shall we drain in the talkessel?

Keep the Markscheiden!

You want everything for you.

This is where the digging begins.
- Do not touch me!

This is what I am saying.
- We have the gruesome.

Come here, you!

Christian!

Christian!

Christian, my lord.
The miners, there is strife.

Stop!

Go away!

Where a man wants to dig silver,
he is to do it rightly.

Are not the words of the margrave so loud?

Here ore is everywhere.

Go somewhere else
and leave us alone!

What happened?

They attacked our men.

They are supposed to arm themselves.
- Nothing at all.

We do not like that.
- We should not trouble.

You said we had to wear them
down until they made mistakes.

They have already made the mistake.
He is hurt.

I saw him, he can
hardly hold his sword.

Do you want to challenge him to fight?

He will challenge me.

Greetings. Christian
is to come to Mei�en.

The margrave wants to see him.
He should hurry.

Must have been very convincing.

Make sure you get lost!

Make my horse the iron!

Thank you.

With your permission, you
still owe me the reward.

I am the Lord of the village
and owe you no wages.

Christian is our Lord.

And he said that you must
pay for our services.

You stand in my way?

Take this as a reward!

Lord, hold on!

Jonas!

He did not want to pay.
- What has he done?

These men have raised their
hands against me. Come!

Put the two in chains!

30 whips and then
off into the block!

Karl! What are you
doing with my son?

I did not do anything.
- Come on!

Let mildness rule!

Anything else?

If you were not of noble birth,
I would put you to them.

(Cries)

Christian!
- Burgvogt.

The margrave sent me a messenger.

No, I did not send anyone.
But he is one of you.

Wait, I ask.

Christian, I sent a messenger.

But he did not go to
you, he went to Randolf.

This is all my fault.

I left him as a vogt,
although I knew how he was.

I'm so sorry.

Jonas, hey!

Do not, Marthe, no!

Marthe!

Look at me! You can do it.

So, it's enough.

The wound must be sewn.

Whipping, now.
- Sir!

All right.

(Cries)

Stop it!

You're welcome...

Let me go to him!

Get out! Or should we
put you in the block?

Come over.

He is unconscious and does not feel anything.
- He will die.

Jonas would not want you
to endanger your life.

Come come.

Marthe.

We can not accept it.
- Want to fight?

If it has to be?
- And die?

We must do something.

Ride to Meissen and
give Christian notice!

You must hurry, and no one
is allowed to notice.

(Laughter)

Come here, join us!

Keep the whole night watch?
What do you care?

We can also have fun here.

Come! Be the first.

Tomorrow, Luke. So early on the road?
- Have you seen Ritter Christian?

What's happening?
Where is Christian?

He's gone.
- What? Since when?

Since yesterday evening.

Christian, see what they've done!
My son!

My son!

What happened?

Randolf denied Jonas his reward.

Karl only wanted to help him.

Jonas has lost a lot of blood and
does not come to himself anymore.

Wait here.

You can not go alone.
- You should wait.

Christian!

Leave the two free, immediately!

They raised their hands.
They had their reasons.

The blacksmith is injured.
In the block he dies.

You dare to ask
such demands here.

The two do not interest you.

You want me. Leave her free,
and you get me for it.

Only the margrave can judge you.

I will confess that
I took silver.

And therefor...

... let you free my people.

Bind them!

Have not you heard?
Bind them!

Get rid of them!

Knight Christian, I
accuse you of the theft.

You have misused
trust and silver.

Capture him!

Stop.

Since you crawled out of your
hole, you just made trouble.

You wanted to turn the
world upside down.

That heights are free, and peasants
determine their own masters.

Now your arrogance revenges,
and no one is with you.

The margrave will decide on this.

Do you think he can help you?

You will not dare doing that.

You can not be so stupid.

She did not tell you, did she?

Well, she's ashamed.

We had fun together.

I took them first and
then looked at them,

As the others had
their fun with it.

You want to fight?

We should have finished it in Meissen.
Get him out!

Marthe, stay here!

Tie him!

Give him his sword!

Ah!

Marthe, you can not...

Marthe...

She attacked me.

Everyone has seen it.

Watch what I'm doing with her!

Come here!

No!

No!

Let me go!

I'll drown you like a cat.

This happens when you are
as stiff as you are.

Let go of my wife!

(Cry of pain)

Christian, stop!
Let Otto judge him!

Marthe!

Please, Marthe...

She lives.

So listen to my verdict.

Knight Randolf, you have
blame for yourself.

To the atonement you will go
on pilgrimage to the holy land

And there for 40 days
the pilgrims guard.

Knight Christian...

Compensation for suffered irreparability

And as a reward for your fidelity

Your fief shall be hereditary.

And after your death no longer
fall back upon the margraves.

So that his children be born free.

Thank you.

Marthe!

Come here!

Bow down!

Lord, if you will
grant me a wish,

Raises Marthe to my booth
that I can marry her.

You want to marry?

This girl?

Without them I would not
stand before you today.

So be it!

Arise, Mrs. Marthe.

Stand up!
