FRONT

And here they're helping our grandmother.

I helped her too, but I didn't hide.

Comrade Eugene, why are you silent all the time?

Have you swallowed your tongue?

We are not waiting for anyone.

- Who is it? - A telegram for Hlopko.

- Hello. - Hello.

Sign here, please.

Thank you.

Congratulations on your wedding anniversary.

We wish you love, happiness, and victory.

From mom, uncle Yura, and Sasha.

Anniversary.

Fifteen years.

How much people learn about each other during this time.

And what do I know about him?

He...

I'm sorry.

So, you say,

that you didn't get a task, or a password for communication, no instructions.

Except to lie low and wait for something.

I swear to God, Officer! That's exactly what happened!

I was sent to this school right from the pit.

- Why, I don't... - Sit down!

Sorry.

All of this looks weird.

I showed you everything I could!

Look at the protocol! About the school,

who is the boss, who he hung out with there.

Why would I lie here?

Maybe you wouldn't.

I've been racking my brains,

to understand why would Germans need me? I'm stupid!

I can barely read! Realy, I have no memory at all!

I got hit in the head in a fight,

when I was a kid!

Maybe the Germans saw that I was a pretty lame saboteur,

and wanted to finish me off.

And maybe then those cunning bastards thought a little,

and decided to send me here like this, without a password,

or a task.

That way you'd struggle, trying to figure out why I'm here.

Good job.

What?

I'm saying good job.

Germans know how to work with teeth,

compared to us.

Face to the wall! Do not move!

- Does it make sense for you? - Maybe.

I also thought about Hitler.

- Why no one is interested... - Take him away.

Stand up!

And what do they do with scientists in the USSR?

I was told that they're kept locked up in institutions,

that aren't very different from prisons. Is that true?

I heard about it.

But it's not for you. You are a very valuable scientist, you...

And you?

What am I?

You promised that we would be together. Remember?

Or you will hand me over and start messing with the next girl's head?

Why are you being like this?

Let's run away.

Let's forget about war, about the bomb, forget all the code words!

Let's just rust run away and be together.

But the war.

You can't hide from this.

Where is the notebook?

Are you from a special department?

Take a notebook and go.

I'm not going anywhere without him.

Young lady.

This is not your boudoir or dance floor, so it's not up to you.

I worked in a secret German laboratory.

I have a cyanide vial in my tooth in case Russians capture me.

Either we go together, or I use poison.

I don't believe you.

This flagellum?

Did you expect to see a gold crown with a swastika?

Well, let's say I believed you.

Bring your prince along.

You'll spend the night here.

I'm going to the city to arrange a car with security,

and boarding on the train. Be ready in the morning.

There's only one mattress here.

Take another one on the service yard.

- Tell them you're from me. - Thank you, comrade.

Sit down.

Do you know what tough interrogation is?

It's when you have to quickly knock out information,

from a person by any means.

Knock out?

Yes, in fact, everything works -

from a burning cigarette to a knife,

and bullets.

And it's important to read a person here, to understand what he fears more:

a burn on his chest or a shot through the knee.

Are you trying to scare me?

A week ago, your glance would be enough, but now I...

I'm not scaring.

I want to save you from the illusions about tomorrow's trip.

Do you think your poisonous tooth is a trump card?

No, I have a trump card.

Because now I know exactly where to shoot if tomorrow,

you decide to play a trick.

German accuracy?

Why German?

My dad was a mechanic at the factory.

How did you arrange it?

Message for the limping man.

Transmitter from the other side?

What other side?

What school did you study it in?

Don't twitch.

I am in German intelligence,

since the thirty-eighth year.

I'm on to you from the first day.

- Why did you play games with me then? - I wanted to have a closer look.

I need you tomorrow.

No, I have my own business.

Forget about it.

Tomorrow's task is so important,

that after it's done you can go back and demand a vacation and a medal.

I was promised that I'd get some money.

Usually, it's promised to those who will not return.

But I'll give you some.

So,

tomorrow we are transporting one displaced woman.

You will ride in the car with her.

I am providing a convoy.

But why do we need the convoy?

Let's go together, drive off a mile in the forest and...

Are you stupid,

or pretending to be?

If we go together, I will have to leave.

But that way - the convoy is killed, and I'm just easily wounded,

during the execution. Medal, promotion.

And no suspicions.

Listen further.

You sit in the back.

Litvin found her!

She passed the front line in the Smolensk region.

Why the hell, didn't you tell Litvin that the object is not Gutz anymore?

I believed and still believe that this person is not credible.

I consider it necessary to entrust Shtur's transportation,

to the local commandant's office.

Well that's what the untrustworthy Litvin did!

Appealed to the commandant's office, requested a car and security!

I guess he foresaw...

That's it! Period!

Period in question with Litvin!

Period in the operation! And period in your work with Anna!

As soon as she contacts you - arrest her!

Comrade Commissar!

The only question mark for me -

is you!

I am ready to answer every question at any time.

You'll answer.

Don't doubt! To the fullest extent!

That's excluded.

- The maximum I can offer... - I did not come to bargain.

A day doesn't pass without someone demanding a separate railway carriage!

I need space to take out the wounded and children!

I repeat, I need a separate railway carriage to transport a very valuable employee.

Even Marshal didn't drive in a separate railway carriage.

Disclosing?

The operation is monitored personally by Comrade Beria.

I can give you a separate compartment in the middle of the railway carriage.

We will set the guard,

and seal the compartment.

Good afternoon.

Good cabbage, too bad I didn't take the money today.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Do you know Schepa?

I think you got me confused with someone.

You got me confused with someone, who will repeat twice.

Lead me. I need to speak with Schepa.

I'm sorry, but you can't appear in such a dress.

Your shiny buttons will be noticed from a mile away.

Then make sure no one notices me.

Let's go.

Well, can we go now?

Yes, we can now.

If we can't, just say so.

No, it's okay.

We can go.

How much longer?

We're close, comrade.

And why did you freeze, silly? You had to scream!

Now it's too late.

Get out.

Fast!

Give me the watch back.

Sorry.

Here.

Here you go.

I'm lucky today!

Lucky in everything?

I'm sorry for the invasion, boys.

It was hard to find you.

Schepa.

Let's talk.

Continue without me.

You forgot to get in touch.

Red army is still attacking anyway.

That's why we need to put our heads together,

and think what to do next.

And what to do next?

We have a thing to do.

Tomorrow the commandant's office will carry a woman to the station.

She's going to have a bloke with a bag with her.

The bag is filled with gold up to the eyeballs.

You take the gold, I get the woman.

But alive and healthy.

Are you making it up about the gold right now?

There are fifty bags like this there, no less.

Show it to your people, for the excitement.

And the guy with the bag - who he plays for?

Your guess.

You can finish him on the spot. He'll get hung up anyways.

Okay.

Tell me more.

The weather is perfect!

Excuse me, but what quality are you traveling in?

I will escort.

Let me put it this way: do you have weapons?

No.

So, you're a passenger.

But there will be a security car?

Well, yes.

- And we drive through the liberated territory? - Yes.

Is there a danger of Germans breaking through?

Listen here, alarmist, I will give you weird advice.

When the shooting starts,

do not rush to save your mistress with your chest.

Better cover yours with hers.

I'll be out for a while.

- For how long? - I'll be back before you know it.

Till the war is over.

Or maybe earlier.

I see.

In the 41st, they forgot to give me a weapon.

But now I've got the whole clip, plus a belt.

The Germans will run away.

Maybe we can just tell them.

You know their frequency.

Don't tell anyone about the frequency.

This is the frequency for work from there.

- Do you understand? - Not really.

Good girl.

Okay, see you soon.

Here you go.

I hope, we will make it there without incident.

Me too.

Feeling comfortable?

Completely.

I will drive behind and look after you.

Within the next few hours,

my resident will intercept and kidnap Shtur,

or kill her if this is not possible.

But you promised,

to complete the operation today.

Everything will end in a few hours.

My resident will take Shtur,

but not to drag her across the border. He'll kill her and get rid of the body.

And let the Russians think that she's been exported.

Let them look for her.

Reasonably. Like all of your decisions.

Well, since it'll be over today,

let's discuss this.

No, sit down.

Your colleague,

Hlopko,

Colonel from "Smersh".

What if we use him to transmit disinformation to the Russians,

about Japan's plans?

After all, his brother is in the rebel army.

Everything adds up perfectly,

doesn't it?

I agree.

Think about this game.

There's an opinion,

that the threat of Japan's attack,

will much more effectively draw Russian forces away,

from the western front than your combination,

with a non-existent bomb.

And whose opinion is that?

Fuhrer's.

Well, that's good.

What?

We passed the ashes. Ideal place for an ambush.

Now across the bridge, get on the highway and here's the city.

Do not let your guard down, comrade. The enemy can lurk behind any stone.

That's right.

There is nothing left.

It was once a beautiful town.

We'll arrange the "Last Day of Pompeii" for them too.

Wipe out their whole Germany!

Will you burn their cities too?

Of course.

How much did they burn in Russia?

How many of our people were killed, tortured, kidnaped?

Should we forgive them everything?

I didn't say to forgive. But this is war.

Those who started it must answer for it: generals, marshals, and Hitler himself.

They have to be judged.

And executed.

But if you also start burning their houses, farms, churches...

Yes?

And did they give a damn?

Easy for you to talk, mademoiselle.

Your family wasn't killed by the Nazis.

My parents got killed near Vilna.

My brother died in the early days of the war.

I don't know anything about the other brother.

But I have already lost hope of finding him.

So, about yesterday's officer, is he real or pretending to be?

A real one. And kind of on our side.

You mean - political?

Kind oft.

Was political.

We were in prison together.

Now he got from rags to riches, but still owes me a favor.

He came to pay back.

And how did he find you?

Listen, I don't get it what kind of protocol is this?

I want to understand.

There's lots of gold there, okay? Enough for you to understand.

- Who doesn't think so? - It's okay, we get it.

And still.

Let them restore our cities and factories first and then go back,

to their homes and rebuild their Europe! Am I not right?

Lenin wrote that the working people of all countries are brothers.

And Comrade Stalin...

Has anyone watched "New Gulliver"?

We have seen it a lot in the orphanage.

Wish we had such Gullivers and Stakhanov brigade.

Right.

Let's change the subject.

Do they have a lot of security guards?

He will take care of the guard.

He only needs to release the woman.

He gets her and we get the gold.

Don't worry. The blast is directed.

I've blown up bigger rocks near Chita.

The brigade performed a weekly plan for the day.

Why did you blow it up instead of mining?

I'm not used to work for anyone. Not for the Red Army or for the Germans.

Why are you talking about Germans?

Your documents.

There you go.

- It's all right. - Thank you.

Open up.

Looks like everything is good?

It shouldn't have been good.

This is wrong.

- She doesn't seem like our girl. - I see you get around.

No, it's not what I mean.

Schepa, this gold was not collected in our camps.

What difference does it make to you? We will melt it down anyways.

Yes, we will, but...

You said that you don't care:

red or fascists?

I don't care who not to work for. But this is different.

Surrender your share to the front.

Not that.

I do not know how to explain, but I will not take this gold.

Are you leaving me?

No, I know the law. We'll do it.

But if anything else is in the car - it's mine, okay?

Whatever you say.

Back off the gas a little bit. You will make a hole in the wheels.

Why is he driving so slowly?

Saving the wheels. Showing off to the authorities.

They're coming.

Do you see the girl?

She's in the second car.

What's wrong?

Damn!

What the...

Not yet!

Now!

Get down!

Run!

Take her away!

Fast!

Finish everyone!

Let's go.

Quiet.

Stop!

Easy.

We're Russian.

Let us go.

Drop the gun!

Stop!

Put the weapon down!

It's okay, easy.

We are Russians.

It's okay.

Your comrade,

over there,

is fighting off spies.

We will deal with it.

You two watch those, the rest follow me!

To the wall!

Run!

I order you to return!

I will...

Damn!

Give me the gun!

Ask in German!

What?

Ask in German.

What are you...

Rat!

Drop your weapon!

Hends up.

Don't let go that one in the military uniform.

Hands up! We will get him.

Do you have any documents?

What's so funny?

I do, but they're fake.

But he has the real ones.

I have not called for you. What do you have?

What is it?

I see.

I ask you to hand over the weapon.

What are you standing? Lead me.

Let's go.

Your spy got you the best places.

Only marshals ride in this compartment.

What can you have of a dog but her skin.

Of a cat.

But we say every cloud has a silver lining.

There will be a sentinel in the vestibule.

Leave only one at a time.

If he says back - silently return to the compartment.

I see.

Well, break a leg!

Here goes nothing?

Have a nice trip!

What's so funny?

I've always known that you were a counterrevolutionary.

And I, in turn, have always known that you are a miserable,

and cowardly creature.

Comrade Colonel!

Colonel Hlopko arrested!

As you were! Commissar needs to see him!

Litvin attacked the convoy.

What?

What's up with Shtur?

She's alive. Heading to Moscow.

And Litvin?

Comrade Colonel, let's go! Commissar gave five minutes.

Return the weapons to its place.

Looks like he's done fighting.

There will be nothing left of the Germans over the summer.

What is it?

- What's that noise? - Easy.

It's okay. We are in the train.

It'll get us to Moscow.

Had a bad dream?

Yes, I...

I don't even know.

So many things.

I'm not sure where it's a dream and where the reality.

This is a real train.

And it's taking us away from the war.

"Smersh"! Open the door!

Open it, moron!

You sure?

We were not given tickets.

But you can check by the stars.

There are so many of them.

Dipper.

What else is there?

Cassiopeia.

Goddess?

Queen.

Very beautiful, smart, domineering.

She thought that she could isolate herself from the world outside her palace.

So naive.

In this, we are alike.

Well, not only in that.

You are also beautiful and smart.

So how did this story end?

As usual.

The gods came and reminded her where she belonged.

Even Perseus could not help.

And here she is.

On the edge of the sky.

On an inverted throne.

You are my Perseus.

Can I sleep some more?

Mr. Admiral, according to information received,

our resident revealed himself during the operation,

and his whereabouts are unknown.

But he will contact us, and the task will be completed.

Shtur will be destroyed at all costs.

Yes, Mr. Admiral.

Well, here we are in Moscow.

Welcome, panni.

Are you Vlad Volnii?

- Yes, comrad. - You are arrested.

Wait. Stop!

- Ekaterina Shtur? - Yes, but why was he arrested?

- This is mistake! - Ekaterina Shtur.

A former employee of the laboratory "Auerge"?

- Yes, but why... - You come with us.

Wait, is this Moscow? The USSR?!

Ours black, ours red.

Follow the lady, the little lady.

10 gives 20. 20 gives 40.

Follow the lady.

Watch.

Where is she?

Wrong.

Nix!

You have a visitor.

Professor, are you sure?

Is it a visitor or I've been given away again?

Limp already. She is waiting!

Easy!

I'm sorry.

Madam, every time I see you and every time wounded!

First in the side, now in the leg.

Are you not happy to see me?

No, I led to the fact that the worst wound is here in my chest!

Damn it!

And you do not waste time here.

I am very glad to see you.

I mean it.

When I knew you were here, I asked the battalion commander and he let me go.

Here.

Are these for me? Flowers?

Yes.

To be honest, they gave it to me at the checkpoint.

But I still...

Listen, you will be here, for about three months now.

And by the fall, they say, the war will end.

Without me?

I don't think so.

But I will be back.

I promise.

Excuse me, where did you get this pencil?

And what about these papers?

The nephew is getting married and didn't invite me to the wedding.

None of your business.

Let me...

I am the nephew.

I am the nephew. I came myself.

And I will personally organize...

the wedding.
