1
00:00:53,415 --> 00:00:59,064
THE CONFESSION

2
00:03:41,198 --> 00:03:44,301
- Did they come back?
- No no.

3
00:04:11,434 --> 00:04:15,400
- So, it's one of your cars?
- It doesn't belong to my service.

4
00:04:15,714 --> 00:04:17,748
I don't deal with
the personalities.

5
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,516
There is no doubt that they are following you.

6
00:04:22,237 --> 00:04:27,372
It will be his services.
There must be an explanation.

7
00:04:28,158 --> 00:04:30,699
It cannot be said that
they take precautions.

8
00:04:31,620 --> 00:04:34,501
Why are they doing this to me?
What do they want?

9
00:04:34,849 --> 00:04:36,677
We start again.

10
00:04:37,034 --> 00:04:38,863
- How long ago?
- Three days.

11
00:04:39,569 --> 00:04:41,766
- Are you sure?
- They're there.

12
00:04:43,998 --> 00:04:45,937
Good.
We're here!

13
00:04:58,979 --> 00:05:00,856
What does it tell you it is?
a safety car?

14
00:05:01,016 --> 00:05:03,732
If it is not, they must take
measures to protect me.

15
00:05:03,855 --> 00:05:07,940
After all, I have rights.
The numbers of those who followed me.

16
00:05:11,308 --> 00:05:12,732
Look for Pavel.

17
00:05:14,308 --> 00:05:15,840
You abandon your comrades.

18
00:05:16,548 --> 00:05:19,224
"You don't understand that if they aim at me,"
Are they targeting you too?

19
00:05:19,272 --> 00:05:22,501
And to all the veterans
from Spain. I'm fed up!

20
00:05:22,818 --> 00:05:25,212
Why not confront me?
with No�l Field?

21
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,018
Don't take me for stupid. Yes very
Well, he is imprisoned in Hungary.

22
00:05:29,633 --> 00:05:30,666
Yes!

23
00:05:45,297 --> 00:05:50,279
Who is behind this?
They attack the veterans of Spain,

24
00:05:50,699 --> 00:05:53,496
to those who were in France
or London during the occupation.

25
00:05:55,098 --> 00:05:59,189
Do you think you will escape because
do you work in security?

26
00:05:59,869 --> 00:06:03,365
Loebl, Pavlik, Feigl, too
They had important positions.

27
00:06:03,681 --> 00:06:08,341
And they are imprisoned.
The vice minister of security...

28
00:06:08,481 --> 00:06:10,752
...is in the Party School,
Ias a student.

29
00:06:10,919 --> 00:06:16,800
Otto also lost his position.
Today it's my turn. And tomorrow?

30
00:06:20,177 --> 00:06:21,741
Whose turn is it?

31
00:06:22,510 --> 00:06:25,788
-Are they safety cars?
- Yes.

32
00:06:26,609 --> 00:06:30,708
Don't you know what happens in your service?
Check where the orders come from.

33
00:06:30,884 --> 00:06:34,284
Because if they come from who I think,
Be on guard! It can be dangerous.

34
00:06:34,994 --> 00:06:37,014
- Aren't they aware?
- Better this way.

35
00:06:37,078 --> 00:06:40,189
How is it better this way? This
It's up to them too, right?

36
00:06:42,460 --> 00:06:44,697
- Did you come together?
- No, simple coincidence.

37
00:06:44,777 --> 00:06:46,401
Oh, by chance.

38
00:06:46,620 --> 00:06:50,529
When veterans are monitored
from Spain, there is no coincidence.

39
00:06:50,572 --> 00:06:54,708
- It looks like a meeting of brigade members.
- Surveillance, surveillance...

40
00:06:55,171 --> 00:06:58,580
There are problems, it's true.
But no one watches me.

41
00:06:59,042 --> 00:07:02,096
You lost your job, didn't you?
Sling is in prison.

42
00:07:02,545 --> 00:07:05,236
Me, at the Party School.
They teach me dialectic.

43
00:07:05,444 --> 00:07:08,049
The positive and the negative.
The worsening of the fight...

44
00:07:08,128 --> 00:07:10,572
...of classes, as
socialism is built.

45
00:07:11,078 --> 00:07:16,159
They follow the Vice Minister
and the head of security doesn't know.

46
00:07:16,492 --> 00:07:19,172
In the blacksmith's house,
stick knife

47
00:07:20,161 --> 00:07:24,572
Resign, leave your position,
do your self-criticism.

48
00:07:24,668 --> 00:07:27,540
They reject my resignation. On the other hand,
They keep me out of everything.

49
00:07:27,653 --> 00:07:30,553
Type that for the meeting
of department heads.

50
00:07:30,647 --> 00:07:33,253
But the meeting took place
this morning

51
00:07:36,001 --> 00:07:37,578
What does this mean?

52
00:07:39,505 --> 00:07:42,337
The Minister said that your presence
It wasn't necessary.

53
00:07:42,402 --> 00:07:44,188
And you believed him.

54
00:07:44,748 --> 00:07:50,033
G�rard, I no longer believe anything. only
I wonder how far we will go.

55
00:07:50,759 --> 00:07:55,841
All the misunderstandings with him
Party can be clarified. It's obvious.

56
00:07:56,065 --> 00:07:59,605
- Unless it comes from higher up.
- I thought it was because of Field.

57
00:07:59,779 --> 00:08:03,274
The Secretariat says that it does not have
what to do with him. Bedrich told me...

58
00:08:03,371 --> 00:08:07,321
The Field case is resolved.
The Secretary General?

59
00:08:08,012 --> 00:08:10,792
I think this quote is useless.

60
00:08:11,584 --> 00:08:16,526
Yes, again I... But G�rard
he insists. For him it is important.

61
00:08:21,878 --> 00:08:25,146
He has a lot of work.
I'll call you to see you.

62
00:08:25,536 --> 00:08:28,226
As for the match, this story
It's finished.

63
00:08:28,878 --> 00:08:33,016
You know what security is like, when
The situation is serious, they are angry.

64
00:08:34,109 --> 00:08:38,449
But you have friends there. The person responsible
Security, for example.

65
00:08:38,896 --> 00:08:43,702
He is also in trouble.
He also met Noel Field.

66
00:08:44,865 --> 00:08:47,029
We will also have
our "Rajk process".

67
00:08:47,109 --> 00:08:49,736
No, no! The circumstances
They were different.

68
00:08:50,113 --> 00:08:51,612
They are the same.

69
00:08:52,108 --> 00:08:56,493
In our own home we will discover
spies and traitors... titistas.

70
00:08:57,888 --> 00:09:01,109
Did you talk to my successor?
The new Minister.

71
00:09:01,315 --> 00:09:03,237
Wow, he believes it!

72
00:09:03,996 --> 00:09:06,344
Your file on the Field case is
taking on gigantic proportions.

73
00:09:06,424 --> 00:09:08,500
This matter is not over.

74
00:09:08,660 --> 00:09:12,372
Ramifications throughout
parts: Poland, Germany...

75
00:09:12,744 --> 00:09:14,864
That's the guy you should see.

76
00:09:15,765 --> 00:09:18,922
Well, let's go. You won't believe that
We gather to remember...

77
00:09:19,003 --> 00:09:20,767
...our exploits from Spain.

78
00:09:25,296 --> 00:09:27,914
We already feel guilty
right?

79
00:09:29,765 --> 00:09:35,157
Don't forget: "Of the master and the donkey,
"the further away, the safer."

80
00:09:37,682 --> 00:09:41,061
They keep waiting.
I will ask the Minister to see you.

81
00:09:46,223 --> 00:09:51,022
I have G�rard here, who wants
talk to you He is very worried.

82
00:09:51,445 --> 00:09:56,300
Let him come tomorrow. But tell him that since
Field's thing, he collects shit.

83
00:09:56,675 --> 00:10:00,472
Many comrades communicated with
Noel Field during the occupation.

84
00:10:00,569 --> 00:10:03,977
-The Party knows it!
- We did not know how to distinguish the enemy.

85
00:10:04,212 --> 00:10:07,216
Betrayal and death are
inseparable from the revolution.

86
00:10:07,512 --> 00:10:08,933
We knew it!

87
00:10:09,765 --> 00:10:12,412
Now we have to know
betrayal and death...

88
00:10:12,857 --> 00:10:17,411
...so that the revolution continues.
That's the important thing: that it continues.

89
00:10:18,245 --> 00:10:20,288
Even if we die.

90
00:10:22,899 --> 00:10:24,598
Go see him tomorrow.

91
00:10:26,570 --> 00:10:31,029
- What else can be done?
- Nothing. Trust in the Party.

92
00:10:37,614 --> 00:10:39,893
- Hello...
-Who is it?

93
00:10:40,834 --> 00:10:44,210
<i>Are you the French one?
Your husband will soon be hanged.</i>

94
00:10:44,395 --> 00:10:45,765
What's wrong?

95
00:10:46,806 --> 00:10:48,742
Nothing.
Mistaken.

96
00:12:10,852 --> 00:12:12,940
Who are you?
What do they want?

97
00:12:13,621 --> 00:12:15,930
Let me go, let me go!

98
00:13:42,288 --> 00:13:43,552
The wives.

99
00:13:52,972 --> 00:13:54,737
I want to see the person responsible
of the Party!

100
00:13:54,820 --> 00:13:57,618
Shut up. You can't ask for anything.

101
00:13:58,909 --> 00:14:02,813
-Who are you? I demand to see the...
- Shut up!

102
00:14:03,866 --> 00:14:05,264
Undress him.

103
00:14:41,017 --> 00:14:42,436
Put it on.

104
00:15:11,596 --> 00:15:13,858
invoices,
various papers...

105
00:15:14,992 --> 00:15:17,269
Fountain pen...

106
00:15:17,348 --> 00:15:19,327
Clock, keys...

107
00:15:24,784 --> 00:15:28,092
- Alliance...
- Alliance.

108
00:15:28,853 --> 00:15:32,299
- Wallet...
- Wallet.

109
00:15:32,968 --> 00:15:38,130
- 350 crowns...
- 350... crowns...

110
00:15:39,706 --> 00:15:43,101
- Two Party cards.
- Two... cards...

111
00:15:45,444 --> 00:15:50,136
- Family photos.
- Photos... of... family.

112
00:15:51,792 --> 00:15:54,072
Ah! Here is the Frenchwoman.

113
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,288
- Tell my family.
- Ha! I'll think you ran away.

114
00:16:05,271 --> 00:16:06,998
Darex Bonds.

115
00:16:09,201 --> 00:16:11,049
For 1,200 crowns.

116
00:16:12,487 --> 00:16:15,273
Special businesses, like all
foreign diplomats.

117
00:16:15,656 --> 00:16:19,191
While we sacrificed
for building socialism...

118
00:16:20,012 --> 00:16:22,513
...the lord lived
like a bourgeois

119
00:16:28,152 --> 00:16:29,758
Leave that!

120
00:16:31,822 --> 00:16:35,052
Your registration number
is 3225.

121
00:16:35,466 --> 00:16:36,951
Don't forget it.

122
00:17:19,816 --> 00:17:21,072
Walk!

123
00:17:28,825 --> 00:17:33,871
No sitting! �Prohibited
stay still! Walk!

124
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,030
<i>�Walk!</i>

125
00:18:01,005 --> 00:18:02,481
<i>�Walk!</i>

126
00:18:11,025 --> 00:18:12,409
The Party is always right.

127
00:18:12,509 --> 00:18:15,355
If there is a misunderstanding,
everything will become clear.

128
00:18:15,608 --> 00:18:19,682
You must submit to the rules
to prove your good faith.

129
00:18:30,516 --> 00:18:33,311
 �Every time I stop walking,
We will put the ideas in your place!

130
00:18:47,999 --> 00:18:49,121
Walk!

131
00:18:59,310 --> 00:19:00,257
<i>�Walk!</i>

132
00:19:11,747 --> 00:19:12,726
<i>The soup.</i>

133
00:19:17,435 --> 00:19:19,200
<i>No, he has no right.</i>

134
00:19:20,530 --> 00:19:21,507
Walk!

135
00:19:29,747 --> 00:19:31,591
Did you see G�rard this afternoon?

136
00:19:33,140 --> 00:19:34,594
Oh, wasn't it?

137
00:19:54,369 --> 00:19:56,692
Sorry. Did you see G�rard this afternoon?

138
00:19:58,057 --> 00:19:59,536
Oh, wasn't it?

139
00:20:01,529 --> 00:20:03,111
Zavodsky is there?

140
00:20:04,264 --> 00:20:05,764
Thank you.
Excuse me.

141
00:20:09,567 --> 00:20:12,564
- Trespass.
- What's wrong? What's there?

142
00:20:14,764 --> 00:20:18,809
What's wrong? Oh no!
The boys sleep there.

143
00:20:19,273 --> 00:20:20,084
What does this mean?

144
00:20:20,164 --> 00:20:22,356
Madam, we have a search warrant.

145
00:20:23,021 --> 00:20:26,896
Raid? I have a direct line
with the Central Committee.

146
00:20:26,959 --> 00:20:31,041
I will call the General Secretary.
Let's see what he says.

147
00:20:41,347 --> 00:20:43,704
- Do you have the order?
- We don't need it.

148
00:20:44,380 --> 00:20:46,903
You have already been told that we have
search warrants.

149
00:20:46,986 --> 00:20:50,475
And I tell him that I will not allow it
without an order.

150
00:21:09,341 --> 00:21:11,624
Come on, mom, go to bed.

151
00:21:15,555 --> 00:21:17,337
You stay here, ma'am.

152
00:21:35,607 --> 00:21:37,173
He is my eldest son.

153
00:21:38,805 --> 00:21:42,333
He was born in prison,
in France, in La Roquette.

154
00:21:43,373 --> 00:21:45,889
- A prison in Paris
- Why was she imprisoned?

155
00:21:45,969 --> 00:21:49,400
Because in '42 the Germans
They imprisoned the communists.

156
00:21:50,671 --> 00:21:54,500
I was sentenced to death. I don't
They were executed for being pregnant.

157
00:21:54,675 --> 00:21:58,256
- Were you imprisoned for a long time?
- They deported me to Ravensbrück.

158
00:21:59,029 --> 00:22:02,683
My son is the prisoner
youngest politician in France.

159
00:22:03,883 --> 00:22:05,820
They sent my husband
to Mauthausen.

160
00:22:06,013 --> 00:22:08,840
NN. Night and fog.
Do you know?

161
00:22:14,060 --> 00:22:16,808
They are photos of my husband
in the Spanish war...

162
00:22:17,159 --> 00:22:19,208
...and later in France,
during the Resistance.

163
00:22:22,384 --> 00:22:24,724
Please, it's my daughter.
Hide that.

164
00:22:25,954 --> 00:22:27,267
Hi darling.

165
00:22:28,223 --> 00:22:30,187
- Dad isn't here?
- It will come.

166
00:22:30,284 --> 00:22:32,172
They are colleagues from the Ministry.

167
00:22:32,856 --> 00:22:34,221
Did you have fun?

168
00:22:34,349 --> 00:22:36,482
- Did you have a good dinner?
- Yes.

169
00:22:36,674 --> 00:22:40,685
Lie down. It's late. go see
how the little ones sleep.

170
00:22:46,832 --> 00:22:48,069
Do you want coffee?

171
00:22:48,501 --> 00:22:50,053
There you have it.

172
00:23:07,518 --> 00:23:08,740
Trespass.

173
00:23:12,615 --> 00:23:15,404
They act like Nazis.
I haven't seen the order.

174
00:23:43,135 --> 00:23:46,316
Go to work as usual.
Not a word of this.

175
00:23:58,507 --> 00:24:02,206
- I want to talk to the Minister.
- At 5 in the morning?

176
00:24:04,805 --> 00:24:07,483
after school
We will go through the Ministry.

177
00:24:16,940 --> 00:24:20,425
There was nothing important. I only know
They brought letters, papers, photos...

178
00:24:21,791 --> 00:24:25,457
15 years of life together.
Memories of Spain...

179
00:24:25,492 --> 00:24:27,415
Letters written in prison...

180
00:24:28,085 --> 00:24:31,144
G�rard does not save
official documents at home.

181
00:24:31,379 --> 00:24:36,340
We will fix everything. you have
direct line. You can call me.

182
00:24:46,836 --> 00:24:50,315
Last night I had an appointment with him
Dr. Dymer. With your problem...

183
00:24:50,636 --> 00:24:54,796
- ... of pneumothorax...
- Of course. They will attend to you.

184
00:24:54,892 --> 00:25:00,476
It is isolated, as I told you. For you
and your family nothing has changed.

185
00:25:00,928 --> 00:25:03,004
The driver and the car
from the Ministry...

186
00:25:03,083 --> 00:25:05,371
...are always at your disposal.

187
00:25:17,532 --> 00:25:21,324
- And? Did you see the Minister?
- Yes. G�rard is not arrested,

188
00:25:22,161 --> 00:25:25,892
but isolated with some
Comrades to clarify...

189
00:25:25,957 --> 00:25:29,332
...certain problems.
They need your help.

190
00:25:30,015 --> 00:25:33,564
Party Affairs
serious and confidential.

191
00:25:33,661 --> 00:25:36,540
Better if they let him talk.
I feared the worst.

192
00:25:37,742 --> 00:25:39,812
Anything you need,
count on me.

193
00:25:40,009 --> 00:25:41,812
He told me that nothing has changed.

194
00:25:48,044 --> 00:25:51,864
Madam, I'll take care of you now.
This is your car.

195
00:26:13,852 --> 00:26:15,147
<i>�Report!</i>

00:27:30,307 --> 00:27:31,769
Put that on!

Don't stay still!

crimes! Confess everything!

Confess what?
Who are you?

208
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,733
February 1. �Confess your
crimes! Confess who you are!

209
00:29:26,098 --> 00:29:27,944
I am the Vice Minister of Relations
Exteriors...

210
00:29:28,041 --> 00:29:28,884
you it's no big deal!

211
00:29:28,964 --> 00:29:31,335
you It's nothing more than a number!
Your number?

212
00:29:32,296 --> 00:29:33,655
Your number!

213

3225. Ask precise questions!
What am I accused of?

214
00:29:38,204 --> 00:29:42,832
You know it very well! Better than anyone!
What is your name? Your name!

215
00:29:42,876 --> 00:29:45,529
-The Party knows...
- Don't you dare invoke the Party!

216
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,081
Never! you is here for

217
00:29:50,143 --> 00:29:54,156

- Confess!

218
00:29:54,250 --> 00:29:55,910
- Ask precise questions!
- Confess!

219
00:29:55,974 --> 00:29:58,451
- I want to see the person responsible.
- I'll make him confess!

220
00:29:58,704 --> 00:30:03,128
<i>At first, one seeks to help
the Party to try to clarify...</i>

221
00:30:03,524 --> 00:30:07,724
<i>...and understand oneself
Why is he there, what mistake did he make?</i>

222
00:30:08,051 --> 00:30:10,135
<i>One is willing
to self-criticism,</i>

223
00:30:10,316 --> 00:30:13,336
<i>to admit mistakes
that harmed the Party.</i>

224
00:30:13,513 --> 00:30:16,217
<i>Years of struggle and discipline
and our education,</i>

225
00:30:16,423 --> 00:30:18,991
<i>they made us believe that
The Party is never wrong.</i>

226
00:30:19,073 --> 00:30:20,440
<i>That the USSR was always right.</i>

227
00:30:20,553 --> 00:30:23,723
We are not alone here!
We have counselors!

228
00:30:23,758 --> 00:30:25,337
<i>How many times have we proudly said...</i>

229
00:30:25,433 --> 00:30:29,082
<i>...of humility, which was better
err within the Party...</i>

230
00:30:29,177 --> 00:30:30,543
<i>...than to be right outside of it.</i>

231
00:30:30,608 --> 00:30:33,436
Confess your crimes!
Confess everything!

232
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:37,536
But confess what?!
Ask precise questions!

233
00:31:14,034 --> 00:31:15,268
<i>�Eat!</i>

234

<i>�Enough! Walk!</i>

00:31:50,867 --> 00:31:52,064
Walk!

00:31:58,166 --> 00:31:59,469

<i>�Walk!</i>

Please... It's 2 in the afternoon
or early morning?

241
00:32:55,637 --> 00:32:57,901
It's here for a reason
very serious.

242
00:32:58,741 --> 00:33:04,020
The Party ordered his arrest.
We must interrogate him.

243
00:33:04,812 --> 00:33:08,047
It is an international matter
of espionage and betrayal...

244
00:33:08,303 --> 00:33:11,088
...against the Soviet Union
and our country.

245
00:33:11,518 --> 00:33:15,723
Your duty is to help
to establish the truth.

246
00:33:15,869 --> 00:33:19,082
He is not alone in the cause.

247
00:33:19,351 --> 00:33:23,337
Other people in high positions
are involved.

248
00:33:23,989 --> 00:33:29,563
Only you can save yourself.
He has been in the Party for a long time.

249
00:33:30,302 --> 00:33:34,059
I appeal to you to help the Union
Soviet Union and our Party.

250
00:33:34,813 --> 00:33:36,824
Do you have something to declare?

251
00:33:37,218 --> 00:33:41,871
I have not stopped asking to be heard by
someone from the Party to clarify this matter.

252
00:33:42,631 --> 00:33:44,604
I am willing to answer everything.

253
00:33:44,883 --> 00:33:48,889
Very good.
We will do the interrogation.

254
00:33:49,153 --> 00:33:54,668
Tuesday February 4th...
I declare...

255
00:33:55,201 --> 00:33:57,797
Where and when was it related?
with American Services...

256
00:33:57,860 --> 00:34:02,040
...directed by Alan Dulles?
How were you recruited by Noel Field?

257
00:34:02,143 --> 00:34:05,260
"Collaborate" with other spies
Americans, besides Field?

258
00:34:05,596 --> 00:34:07,703
Never! With nobody!

259
00:34:07,831 --> 00:34:12,292
Shut up!
And answer the question!

260
00:34:13,304 --> 00:34:17,257
Many heads will fall with this!
We have all the evidence!

261
00:34:17,700 --> 00:34:20,846
We will use methods
which you have no idea about!

262
00:34:21,075 --> 00:34:24,779
He will confess his crimes!
Your luck depends on you!

263
00:34:25,196 --> 00:34:28,515
Or confess to try
to repair their mistakes...

264
00:34:28,676 --> 00:34:33,172
...or stays in the skin of the
enemy of the USSR and the Party...

265
00:34:33,251 --> 00:34:37,212
...to the foot of the gallows!
Answer the questions!

Come on, keep walking!

270
00:35:54,532 --> 00:35:56,115
You can sleep now.

271
00:36:12,655 --> 00:36:15,393
On your back,

You and your dirty race are all
equals.

The gas chambers never ended
his work. We will do it.

00:38:04,932 --> 00:38:07,520
"Thus" he speaks with the badge
of the Party on the lapel?

291
00:38:08,260 --> 00:38:13,584
Is a traitor going to teach me?
you I loved the Party but it's over!

292
00:38:13,665 --> 00:38:15,888
The Party rejects it!
They are all excluded!

293

you lie! It just can't be.
It's against the rules.

294
00:38:19,367 --> 00:38:21,020
The statute is very clear.

295
00:38:21,142 --> 00:38:24,475
What is such a bourgeois concept?
of Party democracy?

296
00:38:24,588 --> 00:38:27,398
You know well that the Central Committee
You can disaffiliate it in urgent cases.

297
00:38:29,242 --> 00:38:32,937
Here you have your cards:
yours, Val�s's...

298
00:38:33,465 --> 00:38:36,055
...and Zavodsky's,
Security Chief.

299
00:38:36,824 --> 00:38:40,023
We know your criminal activities
in Spain and France.

300
00:38:40,136 --> 00:38:44,040
Thanks to the advisors.
You are excluded from the Party.

301
00:38:44,275 --> 00:38:46,082
And we will find the cards
that are missing.

302
00:38:46,166 --> 00:38:47,209
You are not the Central Committee.

303
00:38:47,250 --> 00:38:50,032
No! We are above him.

304
00:38:50,838 --> 00:38:54,772
We must discover the traitors,
including the Central Committee.

305
00:38:55,905 --> 00:38:59,035
We embody proletarian power.

306

The friends you protect
They are here, and they speak.

You will do like them. will respond to
the questions of these comrades.

308
00:39:10,629 --> 00:39:13,836
Like Zavodsky, who confessed everything.

309
00:39:15,789 --> 00:39:19,396
He was Chief of Security. I knew that
the only thing that could save his head...

310
00:39:19,492 --> 00:39:20,935
...it was to confess!

311
00:39:23,460 --> 00:39:26,782
Zavodsky?
"Confessed"?

312
00:39:30,916 --> 00:39:32,584
"But... confessed what?"

313
00:39:37,364 --> 00:39:40,325
He went to a clandestine meeting
on the eve of his arrest.

314
00:39:40,460 --> 00:39:43,649
- What decisions were made?
- Did you summon her?

315
00:39:43,784 --> 00:39:46,772
Yes, because you were the leader of the group
Trotskyist of the International Brigades.

316
00:39:46,868 --> 00:39:49,924
He knew he had been discovered.
What decisions did they make?

317
00:39:50,020 --> 00:39:52,717
In Spain he gave free rein
to his Trotskyist ideas.

318
00:39:52,924 --> 00:39:56,468
-How did you organize the work?
-Sabotage work?

319
00:39:56,581 --> 00:40:01,334
Did you meet Rajk in Spain? He contacted him
with American spies?

320
00:40:01,492 --> 00:40:05,541
Rajk was discovered, tried
and executed in Hungary for spying.

321
00:40:05,645 --> 00:40:06,949
That awaits you.

322
00:40:07,042 --> 00:40:09,492
What relationship did you have?
with Rwal and Winkler?

323
00:40:09,695 --> 00:40:12,460
Why did he protect the titista
Daptchevitch in Spain?

324
00:40:13,194 --> 00:40:17,859
The others confess. I only know
He will save if he confesses like them.

325
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,029
And if it goes faster
and far away from them.

326
00:40:20,124 --> 00:40:21,904
Since you are responsible.

327
00:40:22,032 --> 00:40:25,468
Here the grass does not grow to the sky.
We mow it on time!

328
00:40:25,893 --> 00:40:29,321
Rajk... Did you meet him in Spain?

329
00:40:29,572 --> 00:40:33,337
"Then it was he who contacted him."
with the Americans?

330
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:37,320
Bartons was also
in Spain. What do you know about him?

331
00:40:37,687 --> 00:40:41,972
- We know he deserted.
- Jares was from his unit. Remember?

332
00:40:42,942 --> 00:40:48,079
Here is a report that he had
opposition Trotskyist tendencies.

333
00:40:48,214 --> 00:40:51,574
Like all your contacts,
here and abroad.

334
00:40:51,749 --> 00:40:55,104
My contacts abroad were
the French and Italian communist parties.

335
00:40:56,140 --> 00:40:57,485
Where does that report come from?

336
00:40:57,498 --> 00:41:01,236
Understand... We know everything about
this matter.

337
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:04,220
The help and experience of
comrades Soviet advisors...

338
00:41:04,332 --> 00:41:08,480
...they gave us an accurate picture
of the spy network that you direct.

339
00:41:10,495 --> 00:41:12,697
And here is Zavodsky's confession.
I confessed everything.

340
00:41:12,791 --> 00:41:16,392
Described in detail the activities
criminals from his Trotskyist group.

341
00:41:16,668 --> 00:41:19,902
That's false. Zavodsky could not
never having said something like that.

342
00:41:20,068 --> 00:41:25,784
And this? Isn't that your signature?
All signed. Is it him or not?

343
00:41:30,340 --> 00:41:31,909
It just can't be.

344
00:41:32,744 --> 00:41:35,684
- It just can't be. Not in Marseille...
- Yes, it can be.

345
00:41:35,764 --> 00:41:38,457
"My activity for
US services in Marseille..."

346
00:41:38,642 --> 00:41:41,127
You know your handwriting, I suppose.

347
00:41:49,976 --> 00:41:51,888
Zavodsky and the others
They tricked him.

348
00:41:52,032 --> 00:41:54,738
He didn't know who he was messing with.

349
00:41:57,384 --> 00:42:01,057
To prove your good faith,
You need to say what you know.

350
00:42:01,432 --> 00:42:06,008
- Your confessions will help the Party.
- But confess what? That I was a spy?

351
00:42:07,130 --> 00:42:09,724
He has a very vision
subjective of things.

352
00:42:13,071 --> 00:42:17,236
Zavodsky, arrested later
of you, I confessed immediately.

353
00:42:17,349 --> 00:42:20,356
And he continues to do it, because he knows
which is the only way out.

354
00:42:20,832 --> 00:42:25,340
But everything is false. The Party
French and the resistance...

355
00:42:25,420 --> 00:42:28,564
...they have official documents.
You can verify my activities.

356
00:42:28,677 --> 00:42:30,761
They are of no use next to these
confessions.

357
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:32,600
And now others who are beginning to confess...

358
00:42:32,696 --> 00:42:33,876
...all in the same sense.

359
00:42:34,054 --> 00:42:37,504
Believe me.
Here everyone confesses.

360
00:42:38,209 --> 00:42:40,912
And since you are the boss, you don't have
possibility of getting away.

361
00:42:41,596 --> 00:42:44,465
Think about your family.
In what can happen to them.

362
00:42:45,257 --> 00:42:51,088
Listen: "I did espionage for
USA to overthrow the regime.

363
00:42:52,327 --> 00:42:55,665
In this criminal activity,
I was directed by..."

364
00:42:56,812 --> 00:43:00,676
Look. Your name. Written
in black on white.

365
00:43:01,192 --> 00:43:04,950
What can you say against this?
Are you thirsty?

366
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:12,105
He accuses himself of the elders
crimes, under your direction.

367
00:43:12,717 --> 00:43:14,520
Who will the court believe?

368
00:43:14,972 --> 00:43:19,436
To you, who deny everything,
or him, who is accused?

369
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,107
- And I still haven't finished talking, you know?
- It's not true.

370
00:43:24,913 --> 00:43:27,436
What matters is confessing.

371
00:43:27,957 --> 00:43:30,828
Why would Zavodsky confess things?
What can cost you your head?

372
00:43:30,988 --> 00:43:36,312
To save life. You know you have
only one option: confess. Do you understand?

373
00:43:36,592 --> 00:43:39,082
I want to help the Party.
But I have nothing to confess.

374
00:43:39,124 --> 00:43:42,195
I forbid you to pronounce the name
of the Party!

375
00:43:42,597 --> 00:43:47,636
And you! �It is prohibited to address him on a personal level,
He is not a comrade, he is a traitor! Go!

376
00:43:47,832 --> 00:43:51,412
<i>The Party abandons me,
friends, comrades.</i>

377
00:43:51,619 --> 00:43:56,168
<i>No one doubts my guilt.
I myself reacted like this in the process...</i>

378
00:43:56,248 --> 00:44:00,104
<i>...from Rajk and those from Moscow.
What communist wouldn't be outraged?</i>

379
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,300
<i>�How to conceive that the Party, which
one puts above everything,</i>

380
00:44:03,421 --> 00:44:07,152
<i>that one believes infallible, whether
make innocent people confess?</i>

381
00:44:07,259 --> 00:44:09,631
<i>�But confess what?
Why?</i>

382
00:44:09,711 --> 00:44:13,249
We will do everything to reveal
his betrayal of the Party and the people.

383
00:44:13,312 --> 00:44:16,464
Zavodsky knew about his contacts
with US spies

384
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:20,908
He hid it because he knew that you knew his
contacts with the Gestapo during the occupation.

385
00:44:21,952 --> 00:44:23,712
And his friend Val�s...

386
00:44:24,660 --> 00:44:28,056
...confessed having collaborated
with the British police.

387
00:44:28,291 --> 00:44:32,514
Despite his Jewish origin, he survived
of the concentration camps. Why?

388
00:44:33,180 --> 00:44:35,297
Why did he collaborate with the Gestapo?

389
00:44:35,532 --> 00:44:41,032
Spy Dulles pulled out the list
of the Gestapo. This is how you were recruited.

390
00:44:54,895 --> 00:44:56,151
<i>Walk.</i>

391
00:45:02,561 --> 00:45:05,689
Every day we inform the Party about
the conduct of the detainees...

392
00:45:05,731 --> 00:45:07,927
and their cooperative attitude.

393
00:45:25,377 --> 00:45:28,545
- Number 3225... present...
- Stronger!

394
00:45:29,344 --> 00:45:32,493
Number 3225, present.

395
00:45:54,316 --> 00:45:57,668
What did he do?
Why is he here?

396
00:45:58,003 --> 00:46:02,512
I don't know... They don't let me sleep.

397
00:46:03,870 --> 00:46:07,664
I haven't eaten or drunk.
I'm devastated...

398
00:46:09,452 --> 00:46:10,580
Wait.

399
00:46:13,620 --> 00:46:18,048
They gave orders for you.
You are a particular case.

400
00:46:30,409 --> 00:46:33,283
Don't tell anyone,
or they will punish me.

401
00:46:36,923 --> 00:46:39,136
I want to see someone responsible
of the Party.

402
00:46:39,602 --> 00:46:41,320
They commit a crime.

403
00:46:42,430 --> 00:46:45,536
I haven't slept in 10 days
I neither eat nor drink.

404
00:46:46,617 --> 00:46:50,421
Have someone in charge ask me questions
concrete and respond�.

405
00:46:51,365 --> 00:46:55,325
Didn't he sleep or eat?
I'm going to see it.

406
00:46:56,042 --> 00:46:58,073
The guards do
what they want.

407
00:46:59,379 --> 00:47:02,382
Ready! Holdos is here.
Your group is complete.

408
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,401
All the veterans of Spain.

409
00:47:04,783 --> 00:47:07,540
Here, as in Hungary, Poland
and Germany.

410
00:47:07,637 --> 00:47:10,951
All International Brigades
are involved in this matter.

411
00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:23,454
They are the questions that
they made Rajk in their process.

412
00:47:23,679 --> 00:47:25,766
It seems that you studied
that process.

413
00:47:26,379 --> 00:47:30,999
Each confession from Rajk left them
to you more and more exposed.

414
00:47:31,551 --> 00:47:35,087
But you approved Rajk's process
to hide better.

415
00:47:36,030 --> 00:47:39,688
We will do like the Hungarians who
They liquidated Rajk and his gang.

416
00:47:40,609 --> 00:47:45,146
This is the resolution
What do I propose to condemn...

417
00:47:45,321 --> 00:47:48,944
...to the spy and traitor L�szlo Rajk,
unmasked...

418
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:50,988
...by our Hungarian comrades.

419
00:47:51,670 --> 00:47:54,172
Anyone who agrees,
raise your hand

420
00:47:58,726 --> 00:48:01,545
There are many veterans
of Spain in this process.

421
00:48:01,854 --> 00:48:04,185
Not all of them were good
us in Spain.

422
00:48:04,342 --> 00:48:06,189
I hope the tree does not hide
to the forest

423
00:48:06,727 --> 00:48:08,767
Good. Let's summarize.

424
00:48:09,770 --> 00:48:12,495
"I made in my work
certain flaws...

425
00:48:13,184 --> 00:48:15,169
...due to lack of surveillance.

426
00:48:16,284 --> 00:48:18,960
I had contacts with Kohnova,

427
00:48:20,579 --> 00:48:24,847
Vesela, Pavlik and Feigl,

428
00:48:25,157 --> 00:48:28,148
all condemned for their
connection with the Field case."

429
00:48:28,383 --> 00:48:33,713
No... Vesela was not convicted.
He committed suicide during instruction.

430
00:48:33,876 --> 00:48:38,632
Well, not Vesela. "I accepted for myself
clandestine work in the Party...

431
00:48:38,712 --> 00:48:41,345
...money from the imperialists
Americans."

432
00:48:44,077 --> 00:48:45,952
That's all. Firm.

433
00:48:49,649 --> 00:48:54,191
Isn't it better this way?
Now you can go to sleep.

434
00:49:18,424 --> 00:49:20,616
I was unconscious!
I withdraw my signature!

435
00:49:20,796 --> 00:49:23,251
- I was extorted.
- What?

436
00:49:23,332 --> 00:49:24,813
Yes, physically coerced!

437
00:49:24,876 --> 00:49:27,357
 �He believes that the interrogation
is it a confession?

438
00:49:27,452 --> 00:49:30,485
It's not even worth it as self-criticism!

439
00:49:30,931 --> 00:49:35,851
You'll see how you'll end up signing!
Let's start again!

440
00:49:36,396 --> 00:49:39,224
Let him speak! �If not, we will liquidate
this matter!

441
00:49:43,309 --> 00:49:47,915
Let's go. First his life.
Walk!

442
00:49:50,489 --> 00:49:51,688
Walk!

443
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:57,965
Tell me your life
from the beginning.

444
00:49:59,260 --> 00:50:00,480
When were you born?

445
00:50:03,618 --> 00:50:09,335
- When were you born?!
- On February 1, 1915 in Ostrava.

446
00:50:10,088 --> 00:50:11,828
My father was a railroad worker.

447
00:50:11,940 --> 00:50:14,741
Why do they call him G�rard?
and they don't use their real name?

448
00:50:15,501 --> 00:50:17,836
It was my pseudonym
in the French resistance.

449
00:50:17,936 --> 00:50:20,772
 �His name in the Resistance
in a foreign country?

450
00:50:21,063 --> 00:50:24,112
You are a communist and a Jew.
The Gestapo captured him...

451
00:50:24,471 --> 00:50:29,949
...and you were free.
Suspicious, right? Continue.

452
00:50:29,952 --> 00:50:35,279
My son was born in prison.
It is called G�rard because the mother...

453
00:50:35,341 --> 00:50:39,397
...I didn't know if we would come back
to find. That's why he gave it my name.

454
00:50:39,831 --> 00:50:43,636
Don't try to move me.
Continue!

455
00:50:45,691 --> 00:50:50,668
My father was the 5th of 8 children.
of a Moravian railwayman...

456
00:50:51,369 --> 00:50:55,008
...during the monarchy
Austro-Hungarian. Then he went to Switzerland.

457
00:50:56,124 --> 00:50:58,669
At the beginning of the century,
He embarked for the United States.

458
00:51:00,021 --> 00:51:01,951
He soon learned English.

459
00:51:04,132 --> 00:51:09,988
He recited Whitman poems by heart,
pages of Paine or Jefferson.

460
00:51:11,857 --> 00:51:15,572
In New York he met
to my mother, another immigrant.

461
00:51:16,940 --> 00:51:22,499
They returned to the country together.
In the '14 war he was a stretcher bearer.

462
00:51:23,036 --> 00:51:25,109
In contact with
Russian prisoners...

463
00:51:25,404 --> 00:51:28,033
...become familiar
with Bolshevik elements.

464
00:51:29,138 --> 00:51:32,083
It was the first one I
I spoke about Rosa Luxemburg.

465
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:39,268
Of the Spartakists, of Lenin,
of the commune of Canton.

466
00:51:40,075 --> 00:51:43,541
He made me read Heinrich Heine.

467
00:51:45,717 --> 00:51:49,040
My father showed me the way
of the Communist Youth.

468
00:51:53,564 --> 00:51:57,638
In '30, we wanted to fly
the Prefecture of Ostrava.

469
00:51:58,375 --> 00:52:01,720
How, how? Did they blow it up or not?

470
00:52:02,312 --> 00:52:04,985
Last night he told her the opposite
to my colleague.

471
00:52:05,140 --> 00:52:09,724
No. We were 15 years old.
We wanted to draw attention.

472
00:52:09,779 --> 00:52:11,660
We dream of making it fly.

473
00:52:11,788 --> 00:52:15,228
Did they dream? This morning
He told me the opposite.

474
00:52:16,304 --> 00:52:20,344
Three versions: one from tomorrow,
another in the afternoon, another at night.

475
00:52:21,228 --> 00:52:27,744
Well, start again, let's see
if there is a fourth. I listen to you.

476
00:52:30,375 --> 00:52:32,801
He was born in Ostrava on February 11...

477
00:52:34,023 --> 00:52:37,384
He said that his friend Wagner
disappeared in Moscow in 1935...

478
00:52:37,419 --> 00:52:38,732
...before your trip to Spain.

479
00:52:38,812 --> 00:52:41,192
The day before yesterday he said that
I didn't know anything about him...

480
00:52:41,421 --> 00:52:44,663
Which version to believe?
Let's start again.

481
00:52:47,252 --> 00:52:50,359
I met Wagner in Moscow.
I was returning from China...

482
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:54,355
No! From the beginning.
When were you born?

483
00:52:55,367 --> 00:53:00,792
Go on, go on... Your father
Did Heinrich Heine read?

484
00:53:01,741 --> 00:53:03,020
And what else?

485
00:53:03,568 --> 00:53:05,481
Heinrich Heine.

486
00:53:06,945 --> 00:53:09,880
My father showed me the way
of the Communist Youth.

487
00:53:12,209 --> 00:53:14,826
The Sacco-Vanzetti case
He was passionate about it.

488
00:53:15,720 --> 00:53:18,221
I accompanied him on the marches
through the streets of Ostrava.

489
00:53:20,900 --> 00:53:24,002
He respected physical courage
from Bakunin...

490
00:53:24,437 --> 00:53:27,699
...and had consideration
by Kropotkin.

491
00:53:28,564 --> 00:53:30,783
I knew all his writings.

492
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,838
But I didn't share the ideology
fundamental...

493
00:53:34,934 --> 00:53:36,527
...of the anarchists.

494
00:53:38,216 --> 00:53:40,872
Former member
of the socialist faction,

495
00:53:41,599 --> 00:53:45,416
was one of the founders
of the Communist Party of his city.

496
00:53:47,236 --> 00:53:51,384
Boycotted by the good
society and the Jewish community...

497
00:53:54,277 --> 00:53:58,404
...who considered him a traitor
because he was an atheist...

498
00:53:59,931 --> 00:54:03,722
...and activist in organizations
anti-religious...

499
00:54:04,238 --> 00:54:06,646
...it was difficult to find
work.

500
00:54:07,397 --> 00:54:09,383
His family didn't help him either.

501
00:54:09,837 --> 00:54:14,079
Except his uncle Sigmund,
who gave him moral lessons.

502
00:54:15,721 --> 00:54:20,615
I saw my father for the last time
in the summer of '35, in Moscow.

503
00:54:21,677 --> 00:54:25,752
He had aged a lot.
It had been organized...

504
00:54:25,832 --> 00:54:31,624
...to take a trip here...
a trip here with...

505
00:54:33,722 --> 00:54:35,699
...people who were with him.

506
00:54:36,212 --> 00:54:38,723
I wanted to meet my wife.

507
00:54:39,844 --> 00:54:41,736
He was interested in everything.

508
00:54:42,305 --> 00:54:44,084
Sometimes he asked questions...

509
00:54:44,164 --> 00:54:46,420
...to which I
I didn't know how to answer.

510
00:54:49,929 --> 00:54:52,276
...to which I
I didn't know what to answer.

511
00:54:54,601 --> 00:54:56,408
Not everything had
liked in Moscow.

512
00:54:57,987 --> 00:55:00,491
There were things I didn't understand.

513
00:55:03,900 --> 00:55:06,140
But he had made
your dream:

514
00:55:07,096 --> 00:55:11,556
see Red Square
and Lenin in his mausoleum.

515
00:55:13,143 --> 00:55:17,112
When he left, I was sad.

516
00:55:18,536 --> 00:55:20,968
I was asking when
we would see each other again.

517
00:55:22,613 --> 00:55:24,392
I never saw him again.

518
00:55:26,027 --> 00:55:29,528
Neither him, nor mom,
nor my brother Jean.

519
00:55:30,421 --> 00:55:35,238
Not even my sister Juliette.
Deaths in deportation.

520
00:55:40,369 --> 00:55:43,569
We are in an office
4x5 meters.

521
00:55:44,744 --> 00:55:50,575
With a gray-green wardrobe
and a typewriter.

522
00:55:51,686 --> 00:55:54,218
An empty beer glass...

523
00:55:55,135 --> 00:55:59,099
and a cup of coffee... bread...

524
00:55:59,886 --> 00:56:03,611
Dirty traitor!
Get out!

525
00:56:04,461 --> 00:56:08,149
We'll talk later.
Come on. To finish.

526
00:56:53,529 --> 00:56:57,352
Dirty despicable...
Trotskyist bandit...

527
00:56:57,772 --> 00:57:00,520
You already started in Moscow
your dirty work.

528
00:57:02,220 --> 00:57:03,415
Come on.

529
00:57:14,831 --> 00:57:16,303
<i>They are going to hang me.</i>

530
00:57:16,917 --> 00:57:18,840
Let him speak, or we will liquidate him!

531
00:57:19,311 --> 00:57:22,056
<i>They will make me disappear
like Wagner in Moscow.</i>

532
00:57:22,424 --> 00:57:25,069
They took away my party card.
They say I'm a Trotskyist!

533
00:57:25,435 --> 00:57:28,750
<i>They will say that I committed suicide overwhelmed
because of guilt.</i>

534
00:57:29,266 --> 00:57:32,380
He committed suicide. He didn't have the courage
to recognize their crimes.

535
00:58:01,550 --> 00:58:05,133
You're lucky. But still
will end up on the gallows.

536
00:58:05,921 --> 00:58:07,964
And our people will be avenged.

537
00:58:08,273 --> 00:58:10,712
If the orders are from whom
I think it can be dangerous.

538
00:58:13,424 --> 00:58:16,524
For now, the comrades
They prefer him alive for the process.

539
00:58:18,347 --> 00:58:20,961
Give to advisors
Soviet security...

540
00:58:21,072 --> 00:58:24,341
...range and advantages
of the diplomatic corps.

541
00:58:24,741 --> 00:58:26,774
But they are police, not diplomats!

542
00:58:26,857 --> 00:58:29,890
We take advantage of the experience
collected in the Moscow trials.

543
00:58:32,087 --> 00:58:35,016
<i>The presence of the counselors
It seemed natural to us.</i>

544
00:58:35,156 --> 00:58:38,201
<i>It derived from the principle of
technical and financial help from...</i>

545
00:58:38,243 --> 00:58:40,197
<i>...the USSR to socialist countries.</i>

546
00:58:40,453 --> 00:58:44,084
The process will be in August. we have
5 months to make him confess.

547
00:58:44,499 --> 00:58:49,608
In Moscow, Radek only had 3 months.
As you see, we have margin.

548
00:58:49,743 --> 00:58:52,945
Comrades disappear.
A great process is being prepared.

549
00:58:53,073 --> 00:58:58,614
Confess soon or I will judge you
behind closed doors, to hang him.

550
00:58:58,678 --> 00:59:00,400
They made me write
my biography

551
00:59:00,464 --> 00:59:03,872
They found the difference of a detail,
an old story that I had forgotten.

552
00:59:08,988 --> 00:59:12,124
Confess! Confess that you are a Trotskyist!
Confess it!

553
00:59:14,104 --> 00:59:16,905
In Moscow, in '36,
I already had contact...

554
00:59:16,946 --> 00:59:18,312
...with Trotskyist spies.

555
00:59:18,488 --> 00:59:21,437
He went to Spain
so that they would not discover it.

556
00:59:21,787 --> 00:59:25,331
Wagner was in the
Comintern for years.

557
00:59:25,460 --> 00:59:28,405
He came to see me in the room
from the hotel on Gorky Street.

558
00:59:28,585 --> 00:59:30,584
Because of this oversight, they examined
my biographies

559
00:59:30,818 --> 00:59:34,803
And they took everything from me: my papers,
my license, my job, the hotel...

560
00:59:35,292 --> 00:59:39,259
It just can't be. Stalin must not be
aware of this. Surely not...

561
00:59:55,828 --> 00:59:58,485
Ready, boss. He began to confess.

562
00:59:58,627 --> 01:00:00,609
Look what beautiful statements
I have here.

563
01:00:00,705 --> 01:00:02,164
<i>...he began to confess...
...began to confess...</i>

564
01:00:02,357 --> 01:00:04,752
<i>A phrase haunted me:</i>

565
01:00:04,908 --> 01:00:07,953
<i>"The individual in his anguish,
not because he is guilty...</i>

566
01:00:07,994 --> 01:00:10,587
<i>"but because it is seen as such,
becomes guilty..."</i>

567
01:00:10,686 --> 01:00:13,049
Look what a nice statement
what I have here.

568
01:00:13,549 --> 01:00:15,392
"This I have to say about
group activity...

569
01:00:15,434 --> 01:00:18,257
...Veterans' Trotskyist
volunteers of the Brigades".

570
01:00:18,420 --> 01:00:23,367
From this we can
work. It's your friend Tonda!

571
01:00:23,509 --> 01:00:26,844
All the misunderstandings with
the Party can be clarified.

572
01:00:26,886 --> 01:00:30,139
Trotskyist group!
Your friend speaks!

573
01:00:30,815 --> 01:00:33,869
<i>More than three weeks, practically,
without sleeping or eating.</i>

574
01:00:33,948 --> 01:00:36,119
He speaks!
He confessed everything!

575
01:00:36,344 --> 01:00:38,570
- It is not signed...
- It's a duplicate!

576
01:00:40,936 --> 01:00:44,570
As our friends decided,
you have to get to the phrase...

577
01:00:44,611 --> 01:00:47,176
..."organization
of Trotskyist espionage".

578
01:00:47,489 --> 01:00:49,096
He must sign that.

579
01:00:51,007 --> 01:00:54,443
You will also sign it,
since he is the boss.

580
01:00:56,415 --> 01:00:58,608
Party comrades
They will prevent it.

581
01:00:58,719 --> 01:01:00,999
What did you do when
Did they disappear by the thousands?

582
01:01:04,213 --> 01:01:05,881
He is delirious.

583
01:01:06,407 --> 01:01:08,567
Stalin knows what
does, for sure...

584
01:01:09,392 --> 01:01:11,128
What would you do in my place?

585
01:01:12,397 --> 01:01:15,280
- Confess!
- Confess what? What am I a spy?

586
01:01:18,956 --> 01:01:20,738
What would you do in my place, G�rard?

587
01:01:25,709 --> 01:01:27,137
Leave it.
It's exhausted.

588
01:01:28,006 --> 01:01:31,605
Stalin taught that man
It is the most precious capital.

589
01:01:32,348 --> 01:01:34,881
If you drown you have to
take it out of the water.

590
01:01:41,490 --> 01:01:42,558
Coma.

591
01:01:55,628 --> 01:02:00,200
<i>I heard Smola say:
"Leave it. We'll continue right away."</i>

592
01:02:01,218 --> 01:02:04,180
<i>They left me on the ground
and I had a wonderful vision.</i>

593
01:02:05,224 --> 01:02:07,529
<i>I'm in Monte Carlo,
where I had never been...</i>

594
01:02:07,608 --> 01:02:09,545
<i>...on a very beautiful beach.</i>

595
01:02:19,368 --> 01:02:22,052
The first thing I did
upon arriving in France...

596
01:02:22,132 --> 01:02:24,912
...was to come to know
this landscape.

597
01:02:25,979 --> 01:02:29,431
Furthermore, the doctors advise me
the weather, through my lungs.

598
01:02:29,510 --> 01:02:32,228
- You have to tell it, G�rard.
- Tell what?

599
01:02:32,613 --> 01:02:35,061
All this. We have to talk,
make it known.

600
01:02:35,180 --> 01:02:36,000
To whom?

601
01:02:36,095 --> 01:02:38,600
Write a book. If you want,
I know editors.

602
01:02:39,343 --> 01:02:41,541
- Write for whom?
- For us.

603
01:02:42,831 --> 01:02:45,928
The communists cannot
understand this truth.

604
01:02:47,272 --> 01:02:49,745
They will say that you have to wash
dirty clothes in family,

605
01:02:49,826 --> 01:02:53,859
that I follow the enemy's game.
Certainly, they will say even more,

606
01:02:54,056 --> 01:02:57,723
that there is no smoke without fire. Or,
that there was no party spirit.

607
01:02:58,789 --> 01:03:00,912
It's very early, objectively.

608
01:03:01,392 --> 01:03:04,285
It doesn't matter, I think you should write
a book

609
01:03:04,326 --> 01:03:06,203
The people of those processes still
is in power.

610
01:03:06,283 --> 01:03:09,140
They would never admit this guy
of testimonies.

611
01:03:09,372 --> 01:03:12,612
- Publish here, in French.
- No. First there.

612
01:03:13,108 --> 01:03:15,888
The book must emerge
of the situation.

613
01:03:16,223 --> 01:03:20,507
- Are we going to shut up?
- Jean, I have no debts to anyone.

614
01:03:20,604 --> 01:03:23,604
- It's a global problem.
- Precisely. And the others?

615
01:03:23,718 --> 01:03:25,949
All those who are dead...
Who will speak for them?

616
01:03:26,243 --> 01:03:32,208
And for us? Who spoke
for us in '52? You, maybe?

617
01:03:33,412 --> 01:03:36,111
Do you remember what you all said?
you during the process?

618
01:03:36,323 --> 01:03:39,865
We were nothing more than mad dogs,
cosmopolitan titista spies,

619
01:03:39,929 --> 01:03:43,863
Trotskyist bandits. The Party
He knew all my activity in France.

620
01:03:44,381 --> 01:03:47,716
But no one spoke. What did you do?

621
01:03:48,034 --> 01:03:49,453
- Nothing.
- Why?

622
01:03:49,564 --> 01:03:51,427
They would have kicked me out of the Party.

623
01:03:51,504 --> 01:03:55,208
Yes, very easy, but you?
Did you believe them guilty or not?

624
01:03:55,249 --> 01:03:56,739
There was not enough information.

625
01:03:57,151 --> 01:03:59,764
We knew everything in the twentieth
Congress, in 1956.

626
01:03:59,845 --> 01:04:01,932
There was no need for that Congress!

627
01:04:01,996 --> 01:04:05,717
You read the bourgeois press and saw
that these processes were manufactured.

628
01:04:06,244 --> 01:04:11,736
But you lived in a world apart
in which only the Party existed.

629
01:04:11,815 --> 01:04:14,634
Excuse me, but your story is not
add nothing essential...

630
01:04:14,698 --> 01:04:17,332
...except for details, the mechanism
from this hell.

631
01:04:17,428 --> 01:04:19,084
But that this hell existed was
well known.

632
01:04:19,166 --> 01:04:22,240
A senator of the time wrote:

633
01:04:22,336 --> 01:04:25,469
"The Prague trials remind us
that hell has its own logic."

634
01:04:25,569 --> 01:04:28,924
Yes, and with that same phrase he justified
the Indochina war.

635
01:04:29,243 --> 01:04:32,620
And later that of Algeria, which
It caused a million deaths.

636
01:04:32,685 --> 01:04:37,260
Well, that all explains the "how."
But... and the "why"?

637
01:04:37,516 --> 01:04:41,072
Stalin eliminated the best,
to the brightest.

638
01:04:41,225 --> 01:04:45,945
Stalin, who was not alone,
He was a former seminarian.

639
01:04:47,181 --> 01:04:50,539
<i>The public confession,
the humiliation of the sinner...</i>

640
01:04:50,874 --> 01:04:53,203
Furthermore, he was infallible.

641
01:04:55,948 --> 01:05:00,565
In '49, the Cold War. The
Popular democracies are not solid.

642
01:05:00,644 --> 01:05:03,020
They come from victory
soviet military...

643
01:05:03,292 --> 01:05:05,216
...and not a revolution.

644
01:05:05,351 --> 01:05:07,744
There are serious problems
economic and social.

645
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,173
Stalin distrusts the powers
independent socialists.

646
01:05:10,284 --> 01:05:14,596
He distrusts Tito, who refuses to
adopt the Russian socialist model.

647
01:05:14,815 --> 01:05:17,605
Then Titus is proclaimed
agent of imperialism.

648
01:05:18,033 --> 01:05:20,385
"Titista" is synonymous with "spy."

649
01:05:22,498 --> 01:05:25,624
The same was done with
the word "Trotskyist."

650
01:05:26,482 --> 01:05:30,479
- And then?
- After the Rajk trial in Hungary...

651
01:05:30,592 --> 01:05:33,283
...the Party accepted the shipment
of Soviet advisors.

652
01:05:33,557 --> 01:05:35,919
I consider it a test of trust.

653
01:05:36,385 --> 01:05:40,252
We will be a working group
specific, under the direction...

654
01:05:40,364 --> 01:05:42,233
...of our fellow advisors.

655
01:05:42,583 --> 01:05:46,873
We only have to be accountable to them,
to the President of the Republic...

656
01:05:47,268 --> 01:05:49,727
...and the Secretary General
of the Party.

657
01:05:49,899 --> 01:05:54,624
No instance of the Party
You can control this activity.

658
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,660
<i>After a month, they transferred me
again. It was at the end of February.</i>

659
01:06:00,611 --> 01:06:02,463
<i>No, those cars are more modern.</i>

660
01:06:02,656 --> 01:06:06,975
<i>In '51 it was the Tatraplan,
with the spoiler at the back.</i>

661
01:06:20,077 --> 01:06:23,777
<i>The fact of finding myself in a
Common prison gives me hope back.</i>

662
01:06:24,315 --> 01:06:25,984
You can lie down.

663
01:07:03,351 --> 01:07:07,589
If it could be seen,
He would be scared of himself.

664
01:07:08,443 --> 01:07:12,776
Today is March 6. 35 days ago
who refuses to collaborate with us.

665
01:07:13,724 --> 01:07:17,189
Everyone is informed to the Party
the days of his negative attitude.

666
01:07:19,047 --> 01:07:22,625
Well... We'll start again,
from the beginning.

667
01:07:23,217 --> 01:07:27,804
- I will respond with the condition...
- What condition? Your head is on the line!

668
01:07:28,453 --> 01:07:29,927
You have only one possibility:

669
01:07:30,024 --> 01:07:32,477
Confess everything! It's in your hands
save the others.

670
01:07:33,856 --> 01:07:38,243
Take it away. And get ready
for interrogation.

671
01:07:51,629 --> 01:07:53,720
Can sleep 4 hours.

672
01:07:55,157 --> 01:07:58,952
Get undressed.
Regulatory position!

673
01:08:07,972 --> 01:08:12,819
You must admit your guilt!
 �As a disciplined member of the Party...

674
01:08:12,884 --> 01:08:14,743
...must submit to his judgment!

675
01:08:15,244 --> 01:08:17,140
If I am a Trotskyist spy,

676
01:08:17,460 --> 01:08:20,612
why appeal to my feelings
of a disciplined communist?

677
01:08:21,191 --> 01:08:23,760
And if I'm a good communist,
what am I doing here?

678
01:08:26,537 --> 01:08:28,549
My commander.
Telephone.

679
01:08:30,666 --> 01:08:32,109
Keep an eye on it.

680
01:08:39,316 --> 01:08:40,980
Is it him, the one in the hallway?

681
01:08:43,945 --> 01:08:47,459
- How tired you must be.
- It's hard, but we're putting an end to it.

682
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:51,964
And what luck would I have?

683
01:08:52,155 --> 01:08:57,013
Will work 4 � 5 years on a farm
state, until everything is forgotten.

684
01:09:00,020 --> 01:09:04,097
<i>Zavodsky was executed
in 1954, after the rest.</i>

685
01:09:08,373 --> 01:09:10,716
We have received a letter
of his wife.

686
01:09:12,488 --> 01:09:16,151
"Of course, it is not easy to maintain
a family,

687
01:09:17,048 --> 01:09:21,465
"but with the help of the Party
"I'm fine."

688
01:09:23,908 --> 01:09:27,832
She has the right spirit...
He has disowned him.

689
01:09:28,937 --> 01:09:32,388
Are you surprised?
It's not the first time.

690
01:09:33,452 --> 01:09:38,138
One of his friends confessed
that she was his lover.

691
01:09:38,555 --> 01:09:39,755
Bastard!

692
01:09:46,262 --> 01:09:47,676
It's all here!

693
01:09:47,996 --> 01:09:49,780
Idiot!

694
01:09:50,758 --> 01:09:53,320
"There were a few
of his Trotskyist friends!

695
01:09:53,716 --> 01:09:56,220
"I know she is French,
but him!

696
01:09:57,047 --> 01:09:59,648
 �They were discovered in his office,
at night!

697
01:10:02,027 --> 01:10:04,248
She was supported
on his shoulder.

698
01:10:07,157 --> 01:10:11,600
"In that case, you had
intimate relations with her?"

699
01:10:12,100 --> 01:10:15,480
Answer: "No, not intimate,
"just very friendly."

700
01:10:15,896 --> 01:10:19,464
Question: "She was supported
over your shoulder?"

701
01:10:19,921 --> 01:10:21,464
Answer: "Yes."

702
01:10:22,024 --> 01:10:26,825
"That proves that their relationship was
Intimate, according to the dictionary."

703
01:10:27,084 --> 01:10:32,023
Answer: "Okay, let's get intimate then."
He confessed that she was his lover.

704
01:10:33,173 --> 01:10:35,179
Who was the dirty one
What invented that?

705
01:10:35,296 --> 01:10:38,269
Guess what! We are not crazy!

706
01:10:38,596 --> 01:10:40,657
 �The essential thing is that she
has disowned him!

707
01:10:40,838 --> 01:10:42,932
 �And he became entirely
at the disposal of the Party!

708
01:10:43,413 --> 01:10:46,319
- Is there new information?
- Like every day.

709
01:10:46,354 --> 01:10:52,913
We have to accelerate. send me all
the documentation on G�rard.

710
01:10:57,224 --> 01:11:00,228
So?
What's wrong with my husband?

711
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:02,345
You have written many letters.

712
01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:06,949
Do you think that the only thing that comrades
What do they have to do is read your letters?

713
01:11:07,669 --> 01:11:12,871
Anyway... The Secretariat told me
asked to receive you What do you want?

714
01:11:13,327 --> 01:11:16,120
Know what happened to him.
It's been 2 months...

715
01:11:17,804 --> 01:11:20,861
He seems to be terribly
committed.

716
01:11:21,426 --> 01:11:22,736
All this involves you.

717
01:11:23,553 --> 01:11:25,164
Are you under arrest, yes or no?

718
01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:28,972
If it is, I have the right to
know it and know why.

719
01:11:29,364 --> 01:11:32,755
- I am his wife and a member of the Party.
- There is no accusation against him.

720
01:11:33,472 --> 01:11:36,972
But when shady matters come up
in the light, they must be clarified.

721
01:11:37,136 --> 01:11:40,391
G�rard's life is clear. I know,
I have been sharing it for 16 years.

722
01:11:40,536 --> 01:11:45,380
You don't know anything! One day
He discovers something and it gets complicated.

723
01:11:45,707 --> 01:11:47,903
- This is not the case with G�rard.
- You say that because you love him.

724
01:11:48,376 --> 01:11:51,861
There were always traitors, agents
provocateurs, police...

725
01:11:51,905 --> 01:11:55,272
...in the labor movement.
Their wives never discover them!

726
01:11:57,118 --> 01:12:00,125
In '41, in your Party...

727
01:12:01,205 --> 01:12:05,007
...they had to go down
to the Secretary of the Organization.

728
01:12:07,203 --> 01:12:09,648
- Are you talking about Gitton?
- Gitton.

729
01:12:10,630 --> 01:12:13,988
He was a police informant
for years.

730
01:12:14,376 --> 01:12:16,764
The Secretary
of the Organization.

731
01:12:18,489 --> 01:12:22,400
 �It wasn't strange
in recent times?

732
01:12:23,581 --> 01:12:26,856
 �He didn't leave you alone often,
Didn't he come home late?

733
01:12:27,313 --> 01:12:29,360
Did the Party arrest him?
for his private life,

734
01:12:29,453 --> 01:12:32,050
that is, "I isolated him",
to teach him morals?

735
01:12:32,150 --> 01:12:35,210
I already told you, there is no
accusations against him.

736
01:12:36,154 --> 01:12:40,331
You should go back to
France with your family.

737
01:12:40,457 --> 01:12:44,011
Oh, of course! It should be me
the first to condemn him?

738
01:12:45,308 --> 01:12:49,566
And why would I believe that it is
guilty? Let him tell me.

739
01:12:49,994 --> 01:12:52,192
Life will be difficult for you.

740
01:12:53,247 --> 01:12:58,771
I have the duty to inform you
that you should leave the radio.

741
01:12:59,108 --> 01:13:02,435
Why?
The management has just appointed me...

742
01:13:02,516 --> 01:13:04,476
...best journalist
of programs in French.

743
01:13:04,587 --> 01:13:08,164
That's not the question. you can't anymore
work in official services.

744
01:13:08,819 --> 01:13:12,504
- But you have the factory.
- Is that supposed to be a punishment?

745
01:13:13,724 --> 01:13:17,128
An opinion of the working class
somewhat insulting since...

746
01:13:17,208 --> 01:13:20,637
- ...is the one in power.
- It's not me who decides.

747
01:13:20,829 --> 01:13:23,317
In the Soviet Union it is like this
these cases are resolved.

748
01:13:24,500 --> 01:13:28,408
Mom, they take the things.
I couldn't stop them.

749
01:13:29,872 --> 01:13:31,012
What do they do?

750
01:13:34,701 --> 01:13:36,383
Here you have dad, your diary.

751
01:13:39,214 --> 01:13:41,552
-What does this mean?
- Order of the Minister.

752
01:13:41,587 --> 01:13:42,824
They must leave the house.

753
01:13:43,464 --> 01:13:45,848
- They will give you another one.
- Where?

754
01:13:46,354 --> 01:13:47,793
Well, here it is.

755
01:13:55,738 --> 01:14:00,200
It could be worse. The boys can
settle here.

756
01:14:02,994 --> 01:14:06,689
-Who is this lady?
- A friend.

757
01:14:07,932 --> 01:14:10,734
His brother is with dad.
Let's work together.

758
01:14:11,604 --> 01:14:14,307
Is your brother imprisoned like your father?

759
01:14:16,533 --> 01:14:19,532
-Who told you that?
- At school everyone says it.

760
01:14:32,089 --> 01:14:36,432
- You Is it Londonova?
- Yes, do you know my husband?

761
01:14:36,642 --> 01:14:39,372
I heard him name.
Some companions were with him.

762
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:45,988
I'm looking for work. I need it
urgent. I don't know how to do anything.

763
01:14:46,132 --> 01:14:49,052
It doesn't matter, you'll learn.
And you?

764
01:14:49,213 --> 01:14:51,377
I found a position at Autorenova.

765
01:14:51,568 --> 01:14:54,100
How good. Beside.
They will be neighbors.

766
01:14:55,843 --> 01:14:59,294
If you wish, you can
start at the end of the month.

767
01:14:59,534 --> 01:15:01,945
I would like it. Thank you.

768
01:15:02,297 --> 01:15:05,020
- We would like to be together.
- If it were possible.

769
01:15:05,133 --> 01:15:07,580
We'll try to fix that.

770
01:15:21,752 --> 01:15:23,723
Come! Here!

771
01:15:27,996 --> 01:15:30,783
- They left for me.
- No, no...

772
01:15:31,176 --> 01:15:34,896
Yes, yes... I'm used to it.

773
01:15:35,204 --> 01:15:38,940
Have you seen? They arrested the
General Secretary of the Party.

774
01:15:39,387 --> 01:15:43,812
I wonder how far they will go.
I wrote to you through G�rard.

775
01:15:44,552 --> 01:15:48,016
- He never received me.
- Now it's over.

776
01:15:48,304 --> 01:15:50,272
With this arrest,
everything will become clear.

777
01:15:50,349 --> 01:15:54,980
- What is said in your diary?
- That he ordered all the arrests.

778
01:15:55,408 --> 01:15:57,340
G�rard's included.

779
01:15:57,969 --> 01:16:00,604
To hide its disastrous
economic policy...

780
01:16:00,866 --> 01:16:04,394
...unleashed a purge among the
responsible people who disapproved of it.

781
01:16:05,604 --> 01:16:10,281
I know them... If you only knew
how they chased me...

782
01:16:11,139 --> 01:16:14,655
You'll see. G�rard will be� 
released soon.

783
01:16:15,810 --> 01:16:18,096
<i>He was editor-in-chief
from the Party newspaper.</i>

784
01:16:18,208 --> 01:16:21,952
<i>Weeks later,
He was arrested, confessed...</i>

785
01:16:22,148 --> 01:16:25,888
<i>...and he was one of the 14 accused
of conspiracy against the State,</i>

786
01:16:26,345 --> 01:16:28,089
<i>condemned and executed.</i>

787
01:16:32,093 --> 01:16:33,656
Here you have it!

788
01:16:37,949 --> 01:16:40,144
I wish you much pleasure.

789
01:16:51,945 --> 01:16:53,225
Sit down.

790
01:16:55,515 --> 01:16:57,577
Sit down, sit down.

791
01:17:02,928 --> 01:17:05,993
In 6 months,
wore out 12 coordinators.

792
01:17:06,499 --> 01:17:11,004
Even until it ended
irritating the commander.

793
01:17:12,168 --> 01:17:14,916
But don't worry.
It's no big deal.

794
01:17:15,683 --> 01:17:19,345
We will resume from the beginning.

795
01:17:21,172 --> 01:17:25,624
We have many more coordinators
and above all, a lot of time.

796
01:17:26,248 --> 01:17:28,532
Everything that is necessary
to confess everything.

797
01:17:29,241 --> 01:17:31,337
A year or more, if necessary.

798
01:17:31,626 --> 01:17:33,288
I have 5 months to do it
confess

799
01:17:33,704 --> 01:17:39,245
See, I'm not in a hurry. Can't imagine
the carousel that awaits you.

800
01:17:46,063 --> 01:17:47,475
Put this on.

801
01:17:57,490 --> 01:17:59,297
Get up, please.

802
01:18:04,731 --> 01:18:06,085
Walk.

803
01:18:08,975 --> 01:18:10,073
Walk.

804
01:18:14,656 --> 01:18:17,945
<i>Then I learned that Kohoutek,
in the old regime...</i>

805
01:18:18,058 --> 01:18:20,770
<i>...and during the Nazi occupation,
He had been Police Commissioner...</i>

806
01:18:20,812 --> 01:18:23,295
<i>...in charge of repression
anti-communist.</i>

807
01:18:25,168 --> 01:18:30,007
"I established contacts with No�l
Field in Geneva, 1947."

808
01:18:31,096 --> 01:18:35,548
- Sign please.
-The Party knows it, I informed it.

809
01:18:36,410 --> 01:18:38,909
Well, even better. Firm.

810
01:18:41,945 --> 01:18:43,588
The Party knows this very well.

811
01:18:45,751 --> 01:18:48,995
"Because of these contacts..."

812
01:18:50,133 --> 01:18:55,376
"...No�l Field paid me
the sum of..."

813
01:18:55,489 --> 01:18:56,147
How much did you receive?

814
01:18:56,308 --> 01:19:01,492
No, no... not "because" of those contacts
but "during" those contacts.

815
01:19:01,605 --> 01:19:05,689
It was to pay my health expenses.
The Party knew and authorized it.

816
01:19:05,833 --> 01:19:08,547
Who said otherwise?
I received money.

817
01:19:08,644 --> 01:19:10,405
- Yes.
- How much?

818
01:19:11,034 --> 01:19:13,720
- I don't remember, it was 5 years ago.
- Walk.

819
01:19:13,816 --> 01:19:16,356
 �But it wasn't "because of" those contacts
I received money!

820
01:19:16,552 --> 01:19:18,668
 �It was for treatment
from my lungs!

821
01:19:21,236 --> 01:19:25,441
 �And the Party knew that the health service
de Field helped deportees!

822
01:19:40,754 --> 01:19:42,195
Continue.

823
01:19:56,005 --> 01:19:59,517
You said Field gave you money.
How much?

824
01:19:59,597 --> 01:20:01,805
 �Less than 300 Swiss francs
or more?

825
01:20:02,167 --> 01:20:04,196
-More...
- How much?

826
01:20:05,719 --> 01:20:07,012
Double or a little more.

827
01:20:07,220 --> 01:20:10,168
Face the wall. Let's put
800 francs, is that okay?

828
01:20:10,408 --> 01:20:14,443
Now we are getting to the facts.
That's what interests me.

829
01:20:15,768 --> 01:20:17,892
"In 1947..."

830
01:20:18,221 --> 01:20:19,795
Come closer, come closer.

831
01:20:19,956 --> 01:20:23,604
"Noel Field paid me the sum of..."

832
01:20:23,749 --> 01:20:27,087
"...800 Swiss francs."

833
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:31,896
Would you like to sign?

834
01:20:34,371 --> 01:20:36,972
- But the Party knows it very well...
- I beg you.

835
01:20:40,326 --> 01:20:46,377
Szonyi sentenced to death at trial
from Rajk, he only touched 300 francs.

836
01:20:46,980 --> 01:20:50,013
- But mine was because...
- ...health expenses, I already know.

837
01:20:50,477 --> 01:20:52,173
Nobody has said otherwise.

838
01:20:55,799 --> 01:20:58,088
"In 1947, in Switzerland..."

839
01:20:58,168 --> 01:21:00,852
"...I had contact with the spy
American, No�l Field".

840
01:21:01,604 --> 01:21:02,679
Sign here.

841
01:21:02,791 --> 01:21:07,170
No, in 1947 I didn't know
that Field was a spy.

842
01:21:07,478 --> 01:21:12,016
- Noel Field was an American spy.
- Yes.

843
01:21:12,249 --> 01:21:16,860
The Rajk trial established that
Field was an American spy.

844
01:21:16,940 --> 01:21:18,031
Yes.

845
01:21:18,368 --> 01:21:23,456
Here is the resolution voted by
the Party that condemns the traitor Rajk.

846
01:21:23,767 --> 01:21:27,388
- Did you sign this resolution?
- Yes.

847
01:21:27,781 --> 01:21:30,239
- It was a maneuver to cover himself...
- No way!

848
01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:37,093
Rajk's trial had established
that Field was a spy in 1947.

849
01:21:37,315 --> 01:21:41,708
Yes, but in 1947 we did not know
that No�l Field was a spy.

850
01:21:42,237 --> 01:21:46,812
Let's say then that in 1947 you had
contacts with an American spy...

851
01:21:47,510 --> 01:21:49,771
...unmasked in 1949.

852
01:21:51,384 --> 01:21:53,104
Well, that's what it says here.

853
01:21:55,355 --> 01:21:58,077
"In 1947, in Switzerland..."

854
01:21:58,187 --> 01:22:01,769
"...I had contacts with
the American spy, Noel Field".

855
01:22:01,852 --> 01:22:07,012
Yes, but I couldn't know in 1947
what would be discovered in 1949!

856
01:22:07,172 --> 01:22:10,883
 �No one could foresee that Field
He was a spy in 1947!

857
01:22:25,692 --> 01:22:27,686
Good... very good.

858
01:22:28,182 --> 01:22:32,967
Now, sir, let us consider
each fact objectively.

859
01:22:33,236 --> 01:22:35,883
Later we will consider
the subjective aspect.

860
01:22:38,045 --> 01:22:43,550
Noel Field was an American spy.
You had contacts with him.

861
01:22:43,661 --> 01:22:45,589
I did it because...

862
01:22:45,685 --> 01:22:48,688
- What kind of contacts, sir?
- I did it because...

863
01:22:48,729 --> 01:22:52,572
Espionage... espionage contacts.

864
01:22:52,669 --> 01:22:55,132
- No way...
- Call things by their name.

865
01:22:55,233 --> 01:22:59,588
It wasn't like that! �I was sick, without
money, so I got in touch...

866
01:22:59,636 --> 01:23:01,936
...with the health service
from Field!

867
01:23:02,016 --> 01:23:04,560
Sir, I am not an assistant
social.

868
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:14,367
How did you establish contact
spying with Field?

869
01:23:14,913 --> 01:23:17,260
They were not spy contacts.

870
01:23:17,404 --> 01:23:19,188
You signed these statements.

871
01:23:20,227 --> 01:23:22,280
"In 1947, in Switzerland...

872
01:23:22,376 --> 01:23:25,722
"...I had contacts with him
American spy, Noel Field."

873
01:23:26,382 --> 01:23:31,828
"In 1947, in Switzerland, No�l Field paid me
the sum of 800 Swiss francs."

874
01:23:32,628 --> 01:23:34,228
Consider the facts.

875
01:23:34,888 --> 01:23:39,660
Why would an American spy pay?
the expenses of a communist leader?

876
01:23:40,260 --> 01:23:44,528
We will simply list the facts.
I repeat:

877
01:23:45,051 --> 01:23:47,055
The subjective aspects...

878
01:23:49,169 --> 01:23:51,743
...will be addressed in a
later stage.

879
01:23:53,473 --> 01:23:54,782
Ready.

880
01:23:55,585 --> 01:24:00,960
"In 1947 I contacted Field.
Since he was an American spy..."

881
01:24:01,232 --> 01:24:03,980
I summed it up in the most
favorable for you

882
01:24:04,504 --> 01:24:07,000
"...and as I was
in contact with him,"

883
01:24:07,132 --> 01:24:09,932
"I am objectively guilty
of espionage contacts."

884
01:24:10,076 --> 01:24:13,648
"During that period, Field
He gave me 800 Swiss francs."

885
01:24:14,540 --> 01:24:20,220
Ready. If you want to sign... Deleted
subjective appraisals.

886
01:24:21,484 --> 01:24:23,048
Oh... sorry.

887
01:24:32,753 --> 01:24:36,354
The duplicate too.
It's for translation.

888
01:24:41,819 --> 01:24:44,041
For the councilor comrades.

889
01:24:45,264 --> 01:24:47,948
Oh, I forgot...

890
01:24:50,902 --> 01:24:54,352
I have a letter
from your wife to you.

891
01:24:57,859 --> 01:25:00,219
Then I'll sleep a little.

892
01:25:08,236 --> 01:25:09,684
Regulatory position.

893
01:25:27,171 --> 01:25:31,653
Sit down. The boss forgot to ask him
sign this plugin.

894
01:25:32,289 --> 01:25:34,901
"Like the veterans of the Brigades
International recognize..."

895
01:25:35,011 --> 01:25:38,680
"...being Trotskyists and traitors, the fact
to be responsible for them..."

896
01:25:38,776 --> 01:25:43,134
"...puts me on the same level as
them, objectively." Firm.

897
01:25:44,696 --> 01:25:47,412
Afterwards, if you want, you can
write to your family.

898
01:25:52,673 --> 01:25:55,755
"In the Communist Youth
I had already worked..."

899
01:25:55,869 --> 01:26:00,347
"...under the direction
by Smrkovsky..."

900
01:26:00,535 --> 01:26:04,716
"...whose Trotskyist past..."

901
01:26:06,100 --> 01:26:07,401
"...is well known."

902
01:26:07,675 --> 01:26:11,520
- I never said that.
- Didn't you work with Smrkovsky?

903
01:26:11,936 --> 01:26:14,087
Yes, but I never said that
He was a Trotskyist.

904
01:26:15,132 --> 01:26:16,713
He said that himself.

905
01:26:20,829 --> 01:26:23,712
- Do you know his signature?
- No.

906
01:26:23,839 --> 01:26:27,498
Well, it's his. you only reaffirm
what he confessed.

907
01:26:34,408 --> 01:26:37,355
With the comrades we are thinking
that you were already a Trotskyist...

908
01:26:37,420 --> 01:26:40,613
- ...before going to Spain.
- Where did you get that from?

909
01:26:41,498 --> 01:26:48,218
Type. In 1936, you hosted
at his hotel in Moscow...

910
01:26:48,313 --> 01:26:52,633
...to a certain Wagner, an element
Trotskyist, expelled from the Party.

911
01:26:53,065 --> 01:26:56,988
You expressed doubts about
the Moscow trials.

912
01:26:57,839 --> 01:27:02,621
I must include something else in this
he asks. Come closer.

913
01:27:05,163 --> 01:27:09,368
"Already in Moscow, I lived in a hotel where
"many Trotskyists were arrested."

914
01:27:09,679 --> 01:27:12,477
How the President will be happy
of the Republic...

915
01:27:12,561 --> 01:27:14,788
...and the General Secretary of the Party.

916
01:27:15,605 --> 01:27:17,700
They themselves lived
in that same hotel.

917
01:27:18,259 --> 01:27:23,447
Precisely. The General Secretary...
former General Secretary of the Party...

918
01:27:24,664 --> 01:27:25,928
...is here.

919
01:27:27,158 --> 01:27:32,360
Don't get your hopes up. It is not
excuse Quite the opposite.

920
01:27:32,787 --> 01:27:36,067
Proof that they were put in positions
important to take...

921
01:27:36,169 --> 01:27:39,620
...power for the benefit of
US imperialists

922
01:27:39,670 --> 01:27:43,360
- You say that?
- No, he'll say it.

923
01:27:43,557 --> 01:27:46,727
And you will confirm those sayings.
He has already started doing it.

924
01:27:47,533 --> 01:27:49,322
I will never sign anything like that.

925
01:27:51,055 --> 01:27:54,170
Yes, you will sign. Like the others.

926
01:27:57,608 --> 01:28:01,132
Do you believe that the Party stopped
to the Secretary General lightly?

927
01:28:03,283 --> 01:28:07,581
The Secretary wrote to him
British Zilliacus. Those letters...

928
01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:10,853
...they were going by diplomatic bag,
thanks to your services.

929
01:28:11,146 --> 01:28:12,412
How many cards?

930
01:28:12,696 --> 01:28:14,632
Zilliacus is from the Movement
of Peace.

931
01:28:14,744 --> 01:28:17,295
Zilliacus was an agent
of the "Intelligence Service".

932
01:28:17,841 --> 01:28:22,579
He adds: "I declare that I have
received and transmitted..."

933
01:28:22,956 --> 01:28:26,360
- How many cards? Four, Five?
- No, two.

934
01:28:28,691 --> 01:28:29,932
"Five."

935
01:28:33,887 --> 01:28:36,524
I'm going to the translation.
Then you will sign.

936
01:28:48,943 --> 01:28:50,296
Put them back on!

937
01:28:51,415 --> 01:28:53,480
And walk. Walk!

938
01:28:56,249 --> 01:28:59,928
Translated. You can now sign.
There you have it.

939
01:29:04,567 --> 01:29:06,418
Then I will go to sleep.

940
01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:10,540
Let me see. It's not the same.

941
01:29:10,780 --> 01:29:13,166
- Wait for me to read it.
- But it's a duplicate.

942
01:29:14,230 --> 01:29:17,472
-But no, it's not the same!
- Yes, yes it is. You are very tired.

943
01:29:17,772 --> 01:29:19,690
- No! It's not a duplicate!
- Yes.

944
01:29:19,884 --> 01:29:21,113
No.

945
01:29:21,472 --> 01:29:22,772
You can go sleep.

946
01:29:27,062 --> 01:29:32,109
It results from statements by you.
signed and according to testimonies...

947
01:29:32,292 --> 01:29:35,876
...that you delivered to the Central Committee
Clandestine to the Gestapo...

948
01:29:35,971 --> 01:29:39,301
...and caused the execution
from Fucik, indirectly.

949
01:29:39,444 --> 01:29:43,257
Testimonials? What?
Is that game disgusting?

950
01:29:43,544 --> 01:29:46,092
We must synthesize all this material.

951
01:29:46,675 --> 01:29:51,893
You signed: "I organized the return
of Klecan by providing him with false papers".

952
01:29:52,632 --> 01:29:55,824
He stated that Klecan was in his
Trotskyist group in Spain...

953
01:29:55,953 --> 01:29:58,701
...and here he recognized himself responsible
of the Trotskyists.

954
01:29:59,142 --> 01:30:01,767
- I had received instructions...
- Stay seated.

955
01:30:02,404 --> 01:30:06,119
I had received instructions.
Klecan was a prisoner in France.

956
01:30:06,388 --> 01:30:09,064
We took him out of prison and
we got the fake papers...

957
01:30:09,164 --> 01:30:10,440
...necessary so that I could
re-enter the country.

958
01:30:10,536 --> 01:30:14,372
It was Klecan who betrayed Fucik
and to the Central Committee to the Gestapo?

959
01:30:14,484 --> 01:30:17,556
- Klecan did not speak.
- How do you know, was he present?

960
01:30:17,843 --> 01:30:19,896
- It was said...
- There is no evidence.

961
01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:23,040
On the other hand, his Trotskyist group
testified that...

962
01:30:23,152 --> 01:30:26,439
...you He ordered Klecan to betray
to the Central Committee to the Gestapo.

963
01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:29,300
- But Klecan...
- Don't argue. We have testimonies.

964
01:30:29,456 --> 01:30:31,651
 �The history of the Committee� 
Clandestine Central?

965
01:30:32,004 --> 01:30:35,212
Leave it. I included her in the interrogation
from Reicin, which he already signed.

966
01:30:36,143 --> 01:30:38,551
Here you go, change them.

967
01:30:41,090 --> 01:30:45,132
"In Spain, he had more esteem
by the anarchist leaders...

968
01:30:46,885 --> 01:30:50,500
-...than for those of the Party".
- I won't sign that.

969
01:30:50,535 --> 01:30:53,403
In Spain I admired
to leaders...

970
01:30:53,484 --> 01:30:55,786
...like the Passionflower, Durruti.

971
01:31:03,986 --> 01:31:05,277
Walk.

972
01:31:15,530 --> 01:31:17,021
I told you to walk!

973
01:31:18,078 --> 01:31:20,763
"Listen, we've been here for days
with this story!

974
01:31:20,860 --> 01:31:22,581
I had to delay my departure!

975
01:31:24,881 --> 01:31:27,289
Given his anarchist activity,
during his youth...

976
01:31:27,367 --> 01:31:29,396
- I never had anarchist activities.
- Yes!

977
01:31:29,516 --> 01:31:32,089
He wanted to blow up the prefecture,
here it is.

978
01:31:32,298 --> 01:31:33,620
But I was 15 years old...

979
01:31:33,828 --> 01:31:35,951
The age at which they crystallize
the trends.

980
01:31:36,608 --> 01:31:41,153
Furthermore, it is merely formal. The wives.
We can't judge him for this.

981
01:31:43,466 --> 01:31:45,764
They are administrative interrogations.

982
01:31:46,068 --> 01:31:49,682
The Party can condemn him
severely with little material,

983
01:31:49,797 --> 01:31:52,304
...or lightly, with a lot of material.

984
01:31:53,332 --> 01:31:56,412
All that remains is to submit
totally to the Party.

985
01:32:01,896 --> 01:32:07,043
Ready. This is how I take my
vacation. I didn't steal them.

986
01:32:09,008 --> 01:32:11,549
"In Albacete, in the General Barracks.
of the International Brigades..."

987
01:32:11,717 --> 01:32:15,464
- "...he met the Titoist Daptchevitch."
- No.

988
01:32:15,876 --> 01:32:17,624
I summarize your statements
previous.

989
01:32:17,785 --> 01:32:22,464
He declared that he not only knew
Daptchevitch, also Luigi Longo,

990
01:32:22,581 --> 01:32:26,087
- Pajetta, Andr� Marty...
- Face the wall!

991
01:32:27,056 --> 01:32:32,068
- That doesn't interest us yet.
- He never used the word "titista."

992
01:32:32,257 --> 01:32:35,990
It's not a word, sir,
It is a political qualification.

993
01:32:36,158 --> 01:32:37,876
A concept that defines
to our enemies.

994
01:32:38,004 --> 01:32:41,201
In '37 in Spain,
there were Yugoslav communists,

995
01:32:41,592 --> 01:32:44,997
- not titists.
- And you were Vice Minister?

996
01:32:45,285 --> 01:32:49,477
Ignores the bases of dialectic.
You must judge the past in the light...

997
01:32:49,572 --> 01:32:52,115
...of current truths
of the Party.

998
01:32:54,139 --> 01:32:59,299
Do you know what titism is?
Say it, sir, say it!

999
01:33:00,563 --> 01:33:02,924
Listen, I was the one who approved
the denunciation of titismo.

1000
01:33:03,116 --> 01:33:07,426
Don't talk about your approval!
Daptchevitch is a titist.

1001
01:33:07,536 --> 01:33:09,349
He is Tito's minister.

1002
01:33:12,273 --> 01:33:16,464
Do you hope it's daytime?
You will not go to bed before signing.

1003
01:33:17,175 --> 01:33:20,561
- Good morning.
-How were those vacations?

1004
01:33:20,769 --> 01:33:25,631
- I'm back in shape.
- Better, here we continue the same.

1005
01:33:26,159 --> 01:33:29,476
Keep giving work.
It is obvious that he is Jewish.

1006
01:33:30,413 --> 01:33:32,848
Everything okay? did well
in advising his wife...

1007
01:33:32,944 --> 01:33:36,113
...to return to France.
It was the best he could do.

1008
01:33:36,700 --> 01:33:37,996
Did you see her?

1009
01:33:39,889 --> 01:33:41,803
Didn't he write to you?

1010
01:33:45,138 --> 01:33:46,836
Sit down, sit down.

1011
01:33:49,609 --> 01:33:52,516
The leadership of the Party
asked for an interrogation...

1012
01:33:52,884 --> 01:33:58,204
...that synthesizes all this and reflects
all of its activities.

1013
01:33:58,625 --> 01:34:03,517
The counselors prepared
the project to save time.

1014
01:34:04,222 --> 01:34:06,488
- But this means hanging!
- No not at all.

1015
01:34:06,616 --> 01:34:10,820
The interrogation will not go to Court.
It is an internal working document.

1016
01:34:10,948 --> 01:34:15,203
Look, your co-defendants already signed
yours. Believe me.

1017
01:34:15,301 --> 01:34:18,584
- And they are much more serious than yours.
- "In 1947, in Geneva..."

1018
01:34:18,697 --> 01:34:22,552
"...I contacted Field,
the well-known US agent."

1019
01:34:23,016 --> 01:34:25,173
"In payment for information
that I convey to you..."

1020
01:34:25,268 --> 01:34:30,476
...I received 800 Swiss francs."
In payment for information transmitted?

1021
01:34:32,032 --> 01:34:33,436
But it's impossible!

1022
01:34:34,659 --> 01:34:37,520
The Party approved this wording.

1023
01:34:38,031 --> 01:34:41,713
Do like them. Show
who is a good communist.

1024
01:34:41,855 --> 01:34:45,453
- I will not sign that I am a Trotskyist spy.
- But you are still a communist,

1025
01:34:45,576 --> 01:34:47,865
that's why he refused
to admit his faults.

1026
01:34:51,225 --> 01:34:55,428
Confessions are the way
superior of self-criticism.

1027
01:34:55,796 --> 01:35:00,664
And the spirit of self-criticism is the
main virtue of the communists.

1028
01:35:07,357 --> 01:35:09,343
They ask for corrections.

1029
01:35:10,304 --> 01:35:14,737
Your friend Hajdu: replace
"Trotskyist" for "Zionist."

1030
01:35:15,940 --> 01:35:17,884
He is Jewish, not a Zionist.

1031
01:35:18,263 --> 01:35:22,056
We are in a popular democracy.
"Jew" is a slur.

1032
01:35:22,133 --> 01:35:26,354
- We will put "Zionist".
- Zionist is a political adjective.

1033
01:35:26,873 --> 01:35:30,305
In the USSR the word "Jew" is
prohibited. It is said "Hebrew."

1034
01:35:30,901 --> 01:35:34,180
Well, say "Hebrew."
"Zionist" is not the same.

1035
01:35:34,388 --> 01:35:39,964
"Hebrew" doesn't sound right. we will use
"Zionist." They are the orders.

1036
01:35:43,416 --> 01:35:46,156
Let's continue. Wait.

1037
01:35:47,140 --> 01:35:49,048
This is the indictment.

1038
01:35:49,272 --> 01:35:54,672
Then we will write
that of the defense, dictated by you.

1039
01:35:59,494 --> 01:36:02,368
<i>There was never a record
of the defense.</i>

1040
01:36:03,985 --> 01:36:07,139
From hearing "Trotskyist" so much,
"titista", "nationalist", "bourgeois",

1041
01:36:07,220 --> 01:36:10,519
The words lose meaning.
If you asked me to say...

1042
01:36:10,584 --> 01:36:14,664
..."My son, the little Trotskyist
Michel, it turned one year," he would have signed.

1043
01:36:15,696 --> 01:36:19,532
I had only one solution:
suicide. I tried. Twice.

1044
01:36:19,844 --> 01:36:24,461
And he is still a communist.
I don't understand. Or yes, well, it's faith.

1045
01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:26,652
They are believers who do not love
to the Church.

1046
01:36:26,763 --> 01:36:30,428
Which one? There are already many.
God is dead.

1047
01:36:30,648 --> 01:36:34,747
- Today I know that we can be communists.
-And what happened to Field?

1048
01:36:35,431 --> 01:36:37,652
In '55 he reappeared in Hungary.

1049
01:36:37,764 --> 01:36:40,068
They released him, they rehabilitated him.

1050
01:36:40,339 --> 01:36:43,005
Still in Hungary.
He did not want to return to the West.

1051
01:36:43,404 --> 01:36:46,968
But finally, what was it?
American or Russian agent?

1052
01:36:47,017 --> 01:36:51,244
- Maybe he will write his memoirs.
-But why did they choose him?

1053
01:36:51,989 --> 01:36:55,199
After the war in Spain
ran an American service...

1054
01:36:55,212 --> 01:36:57,737
...refugee aid
in Marseille and Geneva.

1055
01:36:58,056 --> 01:37:02,111
He met many communists
from Central Europe. I helped them.

1056
01:37:02,223 --> 01:37:06,596
And I was still in contact with Alan
Dulles, who directed in Switzerland...

1057
01:37:06,614 --> 01:37:09,708
...an information network
North American. It's not simple.

1058
01:37:09,789 --> 01:37:12,964
In the war against Hitler,
USSR and USA are allies.

1059
01:37:13,041 --> 01:37:17,284
Then, the Cold War, and the US.
fired Field from his services...

1060
01:37:17,364 --> 01:37:19,004
...because I knew many
communists.

1061
01:37:19,297 --> 01:37:22,440
And the Soviets did it
pass as US agent

1062
01:37:23,285 --> 01:37:27,155
You are in your twentieth month
prison and interrogations.

1063
01:37:28,522 --> 01:37:32,125
You must learn this by heart:
questions and answers.

1064
01:37:32,410 --> 01:37:33,784
Take it away.

1065
01:37:35,568 --> 01:37:37,030
Put on the blindfold.

1066
01:37:39,308 --> 01:37:43,293
Question: "He confessed his entire conspiracy
directed against the State?"

1067
01:37:43,725 --> 01:37:44,892
"Yes, I didn't hide anything..."

1068
01:37:44,987 --> 01:37:46,909
"...nor to instruction
nor before the Court."

1069
01:37:47,245 --> 01:37:48,708
"I acknowledge my participation..."

1070
01:37:48,787 --> 01:37:50,771
"...at the center of the conspiracy
against the State..."

1071
01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:00,920
Say your text when he
finish talking.

1072
01:38:01,096 --> 01:38:02,952
Just as we rehearsed.

1073
01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:10,716
Good. There it is.

1074
01:38:10,844 --> 01:38:13,069
- You already know the text.
- Take that away.

1075
01:38:14,932 --> 01:38:18,911
It doesn't look good. How many
times a week do you go to the yard?

1076
01:38:19,712 --> 01:38:22,924
- Never, for 21 months.
- How come never?

1077
01:38:23,452 --> 01:38:25,145
It is rightly so.

1078
01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:30,276
It wasn't always very easy.
Put it on.

1079
01:38:31,198 --> 01:38:35,468
Now you will face your
boss and his accomplices. Come on.

1080
01:38:37,137 --> 01:38:41,784
The Party requested a report on its
behavior during this instance.

1081
01:38:46,035 --> 01:38:47,329
Take off the blindfold.

1082
01:38:50,891 --> 01:38:52,313
Sit there.

1083
01:38:54,219 --> 01:38:57,351
He often traveled to
popular democracies...

1084
01:38:57,480 --> 01:39:01,040
...and he had contacts here with me,
with Gomulka in Poland...

1085
01:39:01,267 --> 01:39:04,317
...in Yugoslavia with Tito
and their fascists,

1086
01:39:04,392 --> 01:39:07,427
...in Hungary with Rajk,
in Bulgaria with Kosto.

1087
01:39:07,732 --> 01:39:11,228
<i>And so we ended up meeting
all in the same trap.</i>

1088
01:39:11,537 --> 01:39:14,910
<i>The General Secretary of the Party, who
had ordered the first arrests...</i>

1089
01:39:15,488 --> 01:39:18,055
<i>...and the Minister of Security,
who had set the stage...</i>

1090
01:39:18,151 --> 01:39:20,983
<i>...of these processes with the
Soviet advisors.</i>

1091
01:39:21,062 --> 01:39:23,531
I built the center
conspiracy against the State...

1092
01:39:23,609 --> 01:39:25,504
...with several enemies.

1093
01:39:25,617 --> 01:39:28,764
<i>Then I learned that the Secretary
General tried to commit suicide...</i>

1094
01:39:28,853 --> 01:39:30,836
<i>...rushing against the wall.</i>

1095
01:39:31,097 --> 01:39:34,072
<i>To prevent it,
They padded his cell.</i>

1096
01:39:35,028 --> 01:39:40,276
<i>Again, being alone,
He locked himself in and tried to hang himself.</i>

1097
01:39:40,916 --> 01:39:43,632
<i>They broke the door
and they saved him just in time.</i>

1098
01:39:44,083 --> 01:39:46,412
<i>His savior was decorated
for the feat.</i>

1099
01:39:46,476 --> 01:39:49,580
...men who lived in
West before and during the war.

1100
01:39:49,857 --> 01:39:52,128
This is how I introduced into the Secretariat
Party General...

1101
01:39:52,224 --> 01:39:54,920
...to the bourgeois nationalist
Bedrich Geminder,

1102
01:39:55,065 --> 01:39:58,329
...in Security, to Josef Pavel
and Karel Svab,

1103
01:39:58,538 --> 01:40:00,816
in Foreign Affairs,
to the Vice Minister...

1104
01:40:01,344 --> 01:40:04,624
<i>Why not retract it here?
No one will know.</i>

1105
01:40:05,078 --> 01:40:07,899
The Party requested a report on its
behavior during this instance.

1106
01:40:08,124 --> 01:40:10,003
If you retract, the process will be
behind closed doors

1107
01:40:10,215 --> 01:40:13,223
You have to survive, G�rard.
In the process you will be able to tell the truth.

1108
01:40:16,547 --> 01:40:19,289
You signed all of this.

1109
01:40:21,865 --> 01:40:24,916
It was part of the
conspiracy against the State...

1110
01:40:25,324 --> 01:40:27,863
...led by the Secretary
Party General.

1111
01:40:28,258 --> 01:40:30,948
He was responsible for the group
trotskyist...

1112
01:40:31,085 --> 01:40:32,771
...at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Exteriors...

1113
01:40:36,115 --> 01:40:39,537
You did well to stick to the text.
established.

1114
01:40:39,952 --> 01:40:42,536
Thus his path has been opened
to a public process.

1115
01:40:44,698 --> 01:40:48,080
The General Secretary intends
limit your role to management...

1116
01:40:48,161 --> 01:40:49,534
...ideological of the center...

1117
01:40:49,866 --> 01:40:54,132
In Moscow, Bukharine did what
himself, but it cost him his head.

1118
01:40:54,800 --> 01:40:59,746
Well... now we have to
learn all this.

1119
01:41:00,362 --> 01:41:01,916
Don't worry, he will be there.

1120
01:41:02,260 --> 01:41:06,937
Attorney: "How many letters
espionage took him to Zilliacus...

1121
01:41:07,012 --> 01:41:08,800
...through diplomatic channels?"

1122
01:41:09,025 --> 01:41:10,191
Answer.

1123
01:41:11,116 --> 01:41:16,124
Two, maybe five. there was no
registration, there is no way to trace.

1124
01:41:16,431 --> 01:41:20,060
Prosecutor: "Be more precise.
It has been mentioned that there were ten letters."

1125
01:41:20,365 --> 01:41:21,584
Answer.

1126
01:41:22,004 --> 01:41:23,985
I admit there could have been ten.

1127
01:41:31,234 --> 01:41:32,872
Injection!

1128
01:41:37,014 --> 01:41:38,644
It's calcium.

1129
01:41:39,958 --> 01:41:42,076
This warms you up, doesn't it?

1130
01:41:42,500 --> 01:41:44,364
You are so white
like a chalk

1131
01:41:44,939 --> 01:41:46,735
We'll have to fix that.

1132
01:41:47,956 --> 01:41:51,448
Guided by my instinct
bourgeois to make a career...

1133
01:41:51,857 --> 01:41:53,116
No.

1134
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:57,632
Guided by my instinct
bourgeois to make a career...

1135
01:41:57,729 --> 01:42:01,269
No. "Selfish."
"Bourgeois and selfish."

1136
01:42:03,628 --> 01:42:06,072
"Guided by my bourgeois instinct
and selfish...

1137
01:42:06,248 --> 01:42:09,672
...to make a career and
ensure my personal well-being...

1138
01:42:09,948 --> 01:42:13,256
...being in the West,
I became cosmopolitan...

1139
01:42:13,385 --> 01:42:17,955
- ...and I moved to the bourgeois sphere".
- That's it! Good.

1140
01:42:18,084 --> 01:42:23,641
No. It's not good at all.
The text is fine.

1141
01:42:24,544 --> 01:42:27,624
But it won't make anyone believe that
He is guilty if he speaks that way.

1142
01:42:28,297 --> 01:42:31,004
Here, learn those 15 pages
for Thursday.

1143
01:42:31,276 --> 01:42:35,549
You need to express a little
more than... sincerity. Do you realize?

1144
01:42:36,912 --> 01:42:39,705
He doesn't know how lucky he is
when accessing this process.

1145
01:42:40,260 --> 01:42:44,337
You are not the main accused.
Ah... For the injection?

1146
01:42:44,451 --> 01:42:48,905
- Yes, there are only five left.
- They do you very good. They give it color.

1147
01:42:50,742 --> 01:42:52,056
Take that off.

1148
01:42:56,155 --> 01:42:58,676
Dr. Novak, President
of the State Court.

1149
01:42:59,016 --> 01:43:03,389
- Have you already suffered other sentences?
- Yes, twice.

1150
01:43:03,492 --> 01:43:08,602
In the years '31 and '33.
And then in Paris, in 1942.

1151
01:43:08,659 --> 01:43:13,295
- For what reasons?
- The 1st, for communist activities.

1152
01:43:13,855 --> 01:43:17,334
The second, for participating
in the fight against the Nazis.

1153
01:43:17,842 --> 01:43:21,432
It is useless to write that.
Do you have a lawyer?

1154
01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:25,159
- No, I don't have one.
- The law requires it.

1155
01:43:25,266 --> 01:43:27,224
The State will provide it.

1156
01:43:28,177 --> 01:43:30,350
Dr. Ruzick, your lawyer.

1157
01:43:34,639 --> 01:43:38,375
Despite the seriousness of his case,
I see that the State takes good care of you.

1158
01:43:39,421 --> 01:43:43,610
- He spoils him.
- It makes me fat. Like a goose.

1159
01:43:44,076 --> 01:43:46,489
- Excuse me?
- Did you say that my case is serious?

1160
01:43:46,617 --> 01:43:50,049
Risk capital punishment,
which is what it deserves.

1161
01:43:50,489 --> 01:43:51,951
That provided by law.

1162
01:43:52,907 --> 01:43:55,808
You have the possibility of obtaining
a lighter sentence...

1163
01:43:56,825 --> 01:43:59,572
...pleading guilty and with a
good attitude in front of the Court.

1164
01:43:59,815 --> 01:44:02,848
"What was your role in the
center of the conspiracy?"

1165
01:44:03,060 --> 01:44:06,545
"I admit that I negotiated, as
member of the conspiracy..."

1166
01:44:06,768 --> 01:44:08,932
"...espionage contacts between
the General Secretary of the Party..."

1167
01:44:08,973 --> 01:44:14,832
"...and the British agent Zilliacus and that
"I used the Ministry's diplomatic mail."

1168
01:44:15,113 --> 01:44:19,316
"In addition, I had espionage contacts
with the American agent No�l Field..."

1169
01:44:19,358 --> 01:44:21,356
"...and I informed him
"espionage information."

1170
01:44:21,469 --> 01:44:23,445
I came from talking to the attorney.

1171
01:44:24,880 --> 01:44:28,420
Well, he believes that his
case is the least serious.

1172
01:44:30,311 --> 01:44:35,759
15 years maximum. Like I told you,
This process is your opportunity.

1173
01:44:36,473 --> 01:44:41,288
Above all, be very clear: a
He will only stumble and fall on his family.

1174
01:44:43,106 --> 01:44:47,484
Comrade Minister of Security
I wanted to see it.

1175
01:44:54,351 --> 01:44:56,865
On behalf of the Party
and the President of the Republic,

1176
01:44:57,039 --> 01:45:01,408
I appeal to you. You must abide
to the court record.

1177
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:04,301
This will make a great
service to the Party.

1178
01:45:04,792 --> 01:45:07,471
The situation is serious.
There is a threat of war.

1179
01:45:07,907 --> 01:45:11,165
The Party expects you to
guide by your interests.

1180
01:45:11,292 --> 01:45:15,781
That will be taken into account.
The Party protects his family.

1181
01:45:16,125 --> 01:45:18,604
I will not suffer the consequences
of this process.

1182
01:45:20,336 --> 01:45:24,104
<i>The night before the trial,
They brought me a new suit from home.</i>

1183
01:45:31,626 --> 01:45:33,189
Don't forget the tie.

1184
01:45:35,738 --> 01:45:37,768
- These?
- Yes.

1185
01:45:45,703 --> 01:45:48,105
- Are they going to release him soon?
- I don't know, Madam.

1186
01:45:49,735 --> 01:45:51,093
Are you coming home?

1187
01:45:51,235 --> 01:45:53,572
They took my things
brother too.

1188
01:45:53,684 --> 01:45:55,909
Maybe they'll come home tonight.

1189
01:45:56,037 --> 01:45:57,841
Let's go, guys, to school.

1190
01:48:06,480 --> 01:48:09,260
<i>Later we learned that the
r�fer�nts in charge...</i>

1191
01:48:09,340 --> 01:48:12,572
<i>...to make the
ashes of the executed,</i>

1192
01:48:12,865 --> 01:48:14,724
<i>they found the route
blocked by snow...</i>

1193
01:48:14,820 --> 01:48:19,120
<i>...and they scattered the ashes.
The driver was joking.</i>

1194
01:48:22,550 --> 01:48:25,694
It is the first time that I have
14 people on my Tatraplan.

1195
01:48:25,984 --> 01:48:28,339
There were 3 of us and the 11 of us in the bag.

1196
01:49:41,096 --> 01:49:44,812
The session opens.
I address the accused.

1197
01:49:44,847 --> 01:49:47,756
 �The planned deadline was respected
by law in view...

1198
01:49:47,867 --> 01:49:50,527
- ...from the appearance to the hearing?
- Yes.

1199
01:49:51,045 --> 01:49:54,812
Continue reading carefully
of the accusations...

1200
01:49:54,924 --> 01:49:58,969
...and the development of the debates.
Make use of your right...

1201
01:49:59,052 --> 01:50:02,872
...to express your opinion.
I remind you that you can...

1202
01:50:02,968 --> 01:50:06,385
...conduct your defense as
it seems best to you.

1203
01:50:07,543 --> 01:50:10,744
I give the floor to Comrade
Attorney General.

1204
01:50:14,025 --> 01:50:17,664
The Ministry's investigation
of Security of the Republic...

1205
01:50:18,332 --> 01:50:21,487
...establishes that the
American imperialists,

1206
01:50:21,821 --> 01:50:27,433
In order to ensure their domination of the world,
after the 2nd. world war,

1207
01:50:27,883 --> 01:50:30,336
They organized a conspiracy
against the peace of the people.

1208
01:50:30,463 --> 01:50:34,920
In popular democracies
they created clandestine centers...

1209
01:50:35,012 --> 01:50:39,400
...with corrupt elements.
I accuse them of traitors,

1210
01:50:39,495 --> 01:50:42,060
Trotskyists, Titists,
zionists,

1211
01:50:42,173 --> 01:50:45,156
bourgeois nationalists
and enemies of the people...

1212
01:50:45,492 --> 01:50:49,497
<i>...for creating a center of
conspiracy at the service...</i>

1213
01:50:49,593 --> 01:50:51,596
<i>...of the imperialists
Americans, directed...</i>

1214
01:50:51,693 --> 01:50:54,092
<i>...by western agencies
of information...</i>

1215
01:50:54,289 --> 01:50:58,186
<i>...to separate the people
of their alliance and friendship...</i>

1216
01:50:58,249 --> 01:51:01,553
<i>...with the Soviet Union,
to overthrow the regime...</i>

1217
01:51:01,868 --> 01:51:04,232
<i>...stop construction
of socialism...</i>

1218
01:51:04,441 --> 01:51:06,504
<i>...and restore capitalism.</i>

1219
01:51:08,142 --> 01:51:13,816
Although the conspirators
and his boss have built...

1220
01:51:13,896 --> 01:51:17,304
...important positions
in the Party and the State,

1221
01:51:17,585 --> 01:51:23,025
they did not succeed, like Tito in
Yugoslavia, usurp power...

1222
01:51:23,277 --> 01:51:27,924
...nor achieve his criminal goal.
Thanks to our loyalty...

1223
01:51:28,005 --> 01:51:32,452
...to the Soviet Union,
The conspiracy was defeated.

1224
01:51:33,016 --> 01:51:37,429
For these facts,
the accused:

1225
01:51:38,378 --> 01:51:41,460

Party of Jewish origin,

01:51:47,337 --> 01:51:50,771

1229
01:51:51,420 --> 01:51:54,559

1231
01:51:58,364 --> 01:52:02,328
former Vice Minister of Defense
National, of Jewish origin,

1232
01:52:02,808 --> 01:52:07,139
former Vice Minister of Security,
Czech, of Jewish origin,

1233
01:52:07,652 --> 01:52:12,000
the two former Vice Ministers
of Foreign Affairs,

1234
01:52:12,415 --> 01:52:14,716
of Jewish origin,

1235
01:52:14,968 --> 01:52:18,081
the two former Vice Ministers
of Foreign Trade,

1236
01:52:18,521 --> 01:52:19,696
of Jewish origin,

1237
01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:23,423

1239
01:52:27,860 --> 01:52:30,708
former Editor-in-Chief of
Party newspaper.

1240
01:52:31,380 --> 01:52:34,333
I accuse everyone of having...

1241
01:52:35,092 --> 01:52:38,209
<i>During the 3 hours it lasted
the reading of the accusations...</i>

1242
01:52:38,492 --> 01:52:40,768
<i>...absolute silence
queen in the room.</i>

1243
01:52:41,139 --> 01:52:45,712
<i>They film us. We will be the
dark room show.</i>

1244
01:52:47,511 --> 01:52:49,436
The session is suspended.

1245
01:53:07,137 --> 01:53:08,568
Stay seated.

1246
01:53:10,148 --> 01:53:12,009
Cigarettes.

1247
01:53:13,235 --> 01:53:14,349
Coffee.

1248
01:53:16,688 --> 01:53:18,877
- Is everything okay?
- Vitamins.

1249
01:53:19,516 --> 01:53:20,812
Sit down.

1250
01:53:22,485 --> 01:53:23,876
Everything okay?

1251
01:53:25,830 --> 01:53:28,791
- A cigarette?
- I don't drink. Pass it to G�rard.

1252
01:53:36,156 --> 01:53:37,400
I swallowed.

1253
01:53:39,924 --> 01:53:42,289
It is a political process,
We don't need heads.

1254
01:53:42,346 --> 01:53:45,455
Open your mouth.
They are vitamins. I swallowed.

1255
01:53:46,825 --> 01:53:49,264
Do you need something?

1256
01:53:51,795 --> 01:53:54,224
The President of the Republic
you want everything to go well.

1257
01:53:54,320 --> 01:53:56,112
It depends on you.

1258
01:54:24,417 --> 01:54:26,717
- Is everything okay?
- All good.

1259
01:54:30,349 --> 01:54:31,853
I have news.

1260
01:54:33,885 --> 01:54:37,592
There will be no capital punishment.
The Party does not need heads,

1261
01:54:37,656 --> 01:54:40,844
but a high process
political level.

1262
01:54:41,200 --> 01:54:46,188
If there are 1 or 2 convictions
death, will be a formality.

1263
01:54:47,108 --> 01:54:49,353
If someone retracts
before the Court,

1264
01:54:49,593 --> 01:54:53,388
the microphone will be disconnected
and nothing more will be heard.

1265
01:54:54,124 --> 01:54:56,743
And they will parade
the prosecution witnesses.

1266
01:55:18,519 --> 01:55:20,075
It's mine.

1267
01:55:25,434 --> 01:55:26,596
The session opens.

1268
01:55:31,147 --> 01:55:33,845
We resume the transmission
live...

1269
01:55:33,971 --> 01:55:37,361
...of the center process
conspiracy against the State.

1270
01:55:37,629 --> 01:55:42,689
They will hear the statement
of the former Vice Minister of Security.

1271
01:55:43,119 --> 01:55:45,192
The American spy Noel Field,

1272
01:55:45,705 --> 01:55:49,589
discovered by the process
of Hungary, declared...

1273
01:55:49,631 --> 01:55:54,886
...that had formed, in our
country, a spy network.

1274
01:55:54,928 --> 01:55:57,523
How did he hide what
Did you know about it?

1275
01:55:57,889 --> 01:56:02,865
Since we could not suppress
his declaration, order...

1276
01:56:02,944 --> 01:56:06,277
...that the investigation
will be formally carried out.

1277
01:56:06,905 --> 01:56:10,320
I warned the accused
to prepare their defense.

1278
01:56:10,928 --> 01:56:15,756
Here is a small text change.
You need to learn it.

1279
01:56:20,035 --> 01:56:24,424
Then it's your turn.
Let's review your statement.

1280
01:56:25,040 --> 01:56:27,015
- I assure you that I already know...
- Question:

1281
01:56:27,435 --> 01:56:30,792
"What led you to work as
enemy of the Republic?"

1282
01:56:31,996 --> 01:56:35,757
"I grew up in a bourgeois environment,
alien to the working masses..."

1283
01:56:36,029 --> 01:56:39,181
- Do you want an interpreter?
- No.

1284
01:56:39,762 --> 01:56:42,729
 �Understand the questions
and will you be able to respond?

1285
01:56:43,097 --> 01:56:44,064
Yes.

1286
01:56:44,380 --> 01:56:49,056
- What school did you go to?
- To the German School of Ostrava.

1287
01:56:49,579 --> 01:56:53,124
- What language do you know perfectly?
- The German one.

1288
01:56:53,252 --> 01:56:58,788
- Do you really know her well?
- I haven't spoken it in a long time.

1289
01:56:59,572 --> 01:57:02,948
In truth, he does not know
well no language.

1290
01:57:03,418 --> 01:57:05,880
It is a typical cosmopolitan.

1291
01:57:05,915 --> 01:57:09,112
What attitude did you have regarding
of the working people?

1292
01:57:09,147 --> 01:57:10,412
It was...

1293
01:57:13,168 --> 01:57:14,764
It was insensitive.

1294
01:57:20,893 --> 01:57:22,869
Have you understood the question correctly?

1295
01:57:23,652 --> 01:57:28,285
What attitude did you have regarding
of the working people?

1296
01:57:45,407 --> 01:57:47,784
<i>I felt indifferent to the
interests of the working class.</i>

1297
01:57:47,879 --> 01:57:48,857
<i>I never felt united...</i>

1298
01:57:51,321 --> 01:57:55,519
I felt indifferent to the
interests of the working class.

1299
01:57:56,124 --> 01:57:58,545
I never felt united
to the town.

1300
01:57:59,092 --> 01:58:02,064
For me, your interests
They were always strangers.

1301
01:58:02,512 --> 01:58:04,093
Ready for your turn?

1302
01:58:04,476 --> 01:58:07,717
Remember. It all depends
of his attitude.

1303
01:58:08,277 --> 01:58:10,629
I grew up in a bourgeois environment.

1304
01:58:11,631 --> 01:58:14,504
The working masses always
They were completely foreign to me.

1305
01:58:15,047 --> 01:58:18,168
And I let myself go
by my bourgeois instinct.

1306
01:58:19,814 --> 01:58:20,964
Bourgeois and selfish.

1307
01:58:21,076 --> 01:58:23,515
That drove my career.
and my personal life.

1308
01:58:23,644 --> 01:58:26,539
The eleven years I spent
In the West they changed me.

1309
01:58:26,765 --> 01:58:30,935
In those days I became
cosmopolitan and I crossed over to the bourgeois side.

1310
01:58:31,181 --> 01:58:39,027
<i>I confess to being guilty of integrating,
since 1948 and until the day of my arrest,</i>

1311
01:58:39,141 --> 01:58:41,748
<i>the core of a conspiracy
against the State.</i>

1312
01:58:41,876 --> 01:58:45,300
<i>I fully acknowledge my
guilt for being...</i>

1313
01:58:45,521 --> 01:58:48,964
Tell me, mom, that man who speaks
On the radio it's dad, right?

1314
01:58:49,030 --> 01:58:52,172
- No, dear, no...
- That's what I told my colleagues.

1315
01:58:54,864 --> 01:58:56,696
You go to bed too.

1316
01:59:00,868 --> 01:59:05,136
<i>...and espionage, along
to the English agent Zilliacus...</i>

1317
01:59:05,297 --> 01:59:07,840
<i>...and having used to
those purposes...</i>

1318
01:59:07,904 --> 01:59:11,180
<i>...the diplomatic courier of the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs.</i>

1319
01:59:11,888 --> 01:59:19,521
<i>Also having contact with the agent
American spy Noel Field,</i>

1320
01:59:19,973 --> 01:59:23,210
<i>to whom he communicated
espionage information.</i>

1321
01:59:27,893 --> 01:59:31,657
<i>My wife wrote to the President
of the Republic,</i>

1322
01:59:31,753 --> 01:59:35,372
<i>to express their despair
before my confessions.</i>

1323
01:59:36,970 --> 01:59:40,493
<i>We will read the letter that
Londonova, the wife...</i>

1324
01:59:40,587 --> 01:59:43,574
<i>...of a traitor judged by
the State Court,

1325
01:59:43,670 --> 01:59:46,202
<i>has sent to the President
of the Republic.</i>

1326
01:59:46,637 --> 01:59:50,420
<i>To President Gottwald: Then
of my husband's arrest,</i>

1327
01:59:50,547 --> 01:59:54,680
<i>with the elements I had
of his life and his activity,</i>

1328
01:59:55,164 --> 01:59:57,411
<i>I thought I was a victim
of traitors...</i>

1329
01:59:57,492 --> 02:00:01,809
<i>...that hid their activities
criminals in the Party.</i>

1330
02:00:02,400 --> 02:00:07,985
<i>After reading the accusations
and to hear their confessions,</i>

1331
02:00:08,481 --> 02:00:13,081
<i>my hopes died:
My husband has not been a victim,</i>

1332
02:00:13,249 --> 02:00:16,629
<i>but a traitor to his Party,
a traitor to his country.</i>

1333
02:00:17,125 --> 02:00:19,712
<i>My sorrow is great. He's human.</i>

1334
02:00:19,944 --> 02:00:22,350
<i>But as a communist,
I'm glad...</i>

1335
02:00:22,429 --> 02:00:24,794
<i>...for the interest of the people
and world peace, that the...</i>

1336
02:00:24,906 --> 02:00:28,453
<i>...conspiracy center is
have discovered, and I join...</i>

1337
02:00:28,532 --> 02:00:30,458
<i>...to honest people
of the country to claim...</i>

1338
02:00:30,571 --> 02:00:33,435
<i>...a just punishment for those
traitors that you judge.</i>

1339
02:00:46,827 --> 02:00:49,992
Since I'm no longer the director
I leave the factory earlier.

1340
02:00:51,982 --> 02:00:56,016
Because of me.
If you hadn't caught me...

1341
02:00:56,504 --> 02:00:59,989
No, no... I am not of origin
worker...

1342
02:01:00,241 --> 02:01:02,929
...and I was in the west
during the war.

1343
02:01:04,677 --> 02:01:10,451
Hey, I don't reproach you.
I know you are sincere.

1344
02:01:10,849 --> 02:01:13,029
But that letter was a mistake.

1345
02:01:13,835 --> 02:01:17,860
I wrote it to the President, it was not
so they could play it on the radio.

1346
02:01:18,464 --> 02:01:21,940
But... you heard it, didn't you?
He pleaded guilty.

1347
02:01:22,181 --> 02:01:24,110
Yes, I already heard too much.

1348
02:01:24,377 --> 02:01:26,908
The testimonies, the accusations,
the confessions,

1349
02:01:26,989 --> 02:01:31,125
everything is false. You could say
who studied everything by heart.

1350
02:01:31,329 --> 02:01:33,177
I don't believe at all
in this process!

1351
02:01:33,576 --> 02:01:37,345
Why would they do a process like that?
If it weren't the truth?

1352
02:01:37,602 --> 02:01:42,208
- There are antecedents.
- Fairly. In the debates...

1353
02:01:42,318 --> 02:01:45,601
...and in the accusations there are bursts
of antisemitism. It is unacceptable.

1354
02:01:46,929 --> 02:01:50,445
Yesterday's heroes become spies
and traitors. I don't understand.

1355
02:01:50,980 --> 02:01:54,812
I don't agree! I have decided
return my Party card.

1356
02:01:55,925 --> 02:01:57,608
Do you know what you are exposing yourself to?

1357
02:01:59,395 --> 02:02:04,165
But... Why would he confess?
A man like him?

1358
02:02:04,500 --> 02:02:06,137
We never...

1359
02:02:08,012 --> 02:02:09,847
I hope one day he tells us.

1360
02:02:13,492 --> 02:02:16,056
After hearing the accusations,

1361
02:02:16,708 --> 02:02:21,370
I analyzed the activities again
of Reicin during the occupation.

1362
02:02:21,991 --> 02:02:26,232
And I came to the conclusion
that he handed over to the Gestapo...

1363
02:02:26,540 --> 02:02:30,313
...to Julius Fucik and
Clandestine Central Committee.

1364
02:02:30,634 --> 02:02:32,572
 �The history of the Committee� 
Clandestine Central?

1365
02:02:32,700 --> 02:02:36,992
Leave it. I included her in the interrogation
from Reicin, which he already signed.

1366
02:02:37,168 --> 02:02:41,372
In conclusion, I would like to tell you
Fucik's last words.

1367
02:02:43,587 --> 02:02:49,500
"He who lived for the future
and fell for her beauty,"

1368
02:02:50,124 --> 02:02:52,380
"It is a sculpted figure
in stone."

1369
02:02:52,828 --> 02:02:57,060
"He who willed, with the dust of
past, build a dam..."

1370
02:02:57,156 --> 02:03:01,484
"...against the current of the revolution,
"It's a rotten wooden puppet,"

1371
02:03:01,788 --> 02:03:04,428
"although his shoulders are
filled with gallons."

1372
02:03:05,193 --> 02:03:10,988
"Men, I loved you so much...
"Be alert!"

1373
02:03:19,655 --> 02:03:23,692
Fucikova's statement,
widow of the hero of the resistance,

1374
02:03:23,770 --> 02:03:27,499
left an impression that the judges
They will not easily forget.

1375
02:03:28,050 --> 02:03:30,649
Before, the head of the conspiracy
declared:

1376
02:03:30,842 --> 02:03:33,401
..."Our conspiracy center
against the state...

1377
02:03:33,545 --> 02:03:37,099
"...had hundreds of members.
"The judges will have a lot of work."

1378
02:03:37,397 --> 02:03:41,974
I'm coming. I continue, comrade.
Three simple banks expire...

1379
02:03:42,040 --> 02:03:45,942
...under the weight of the crimes
of these traitorous vampires.

1380
02:03:46,390 --> 02:03:48,945
It is necessary that citizens
have a clear image of the boss.

1381
02:03:49,305 --> 02:03:53,099
<i>Her pink face, her eyebrows
thick Judas.</i>

1382
02:03:53,196 --> 02:03:58,332
<i>His building of crimes
I buried him under his weight.</i>

1383
02:03:58,461 --> 02:04:02,682
<i>He is a dead man.
To the dogs, dog death.</i>

1384
02:04:04,160 --> 02:04:05,872
The session opens.

1385
02:04:06,098 --> 02:04:10,989
In 1939, he established contacts
of espionage in London.

1386
02:04:11,311 --> 02:04:15,492
- With whom?
- With US agent Emmanuel Troska.

1387
02:04:15,779 --> 02:04:19,548
I gave him information
of the Communist Party...

1388
02:04:19,662 --> 02:04:24,607
- ...and his paintings in England.
- Continue, continue.

1389
02:04:24,965 --> 02:04:28,919
Furthermore, I admit that I had
contacts with agent...

1390
02:04:28,999 --> 02:04:35,620
of the Intelligence Service, Hamson.
He called me in December of '44...

1391
02:04:36,032 --> 02:04:40,860
...to an interview at the
Ministry of Information...

1392
02:05:02,175 --> 02:05:04,704
...in the Ministry
British Information...

1393
02:05:05,329 --> 02:05:09,139
...for my subversive activity...

1394
02:05:10,692 --> 02:05:12,132
...in our country...

1395
02:05:24,372 --> 02:05:27,655
...in my country, once
that the country would be liberated.

1396
02:05:47,334 --> 02:05:49,300
Go back to your place!

1397
02:05:52,405 --> 02:05:53,704
The session is suspended!

1398
02:06:27,382 --> 02:06:29,332
You wanted to ridicule justice...

1399
02:06:29,468 --> 02:06:32,366
...and you follow the game of your pattern
imperialist.

1400
02:06:34,754 --> 02:06:36,720
It will cost you your head.

1401
02:06:37,762 --> 02:06:38,931
Sold!

1402
02:06:40,484 --> 02:06:41,853
Don't let go of him.

1403
02:06:44,720 --> 02:06:46,482
He plays his head
with what he did.

1404
02:06:50,511 --> 02:06:53,195
He did it on purpose.
He is always poorly disposed.

1405
02:06:53,489 --> 02:06:56,860
He wants to make fun of the process,
but it will cost you dearly.

1406
02:07:15,116 --> 02:07:19,892
The session opens.
Stand and listen to the sentence.

1407
02:07:24,448 --> 02:07:28,841
The State Court
I heard from 11/20 to 11/27/1952,

1408
02:07:29,248 --> 02:07:33,196
the criminal case debates
from the conspiracy center...

1409
02:07:33,292 --> 02:07:38,396
...against the State. on behalf
of the Republic, are condemned...

1410
02:07:38,540 --> 02:07:40,265
...on pain of death...

1411
02:07:54,337 --> 02:07:58,061
In the name of the Republic,
They are sentenced to punishment...

1412
02:07:58,206 --> 02:08:01,449
...deprivation of liberty
in perpetuity...

1413
02:08:01,961 --> 02:08:03,244
...in perpetuity...

1414
02:08:08,164 --> 02:08:11,258
I grant to the accused
a time of reflection.

1415
02:08:12,042 --> 02:08:14,851
You will be able to consult
to their lawyers and decide...

1416
02:08:14,965 --> 02:08:18,360
...if they accept the penalties
pronounced. The Court...

1417
02:08:18,457 --> 02:08:22,076
...legally reserves the right
to specify his point of view.

1418
02:08:22,488 --> 02:08:24,603
The session is suspended.

1419
02:08:59,657 --> 02:09:00,964
Where are they
our coordinators?

1420
02:09:05,876 --> 02:09:09,369
- Where is my coordinator?
- Where is my coordinator?

1421
02:09:10,811 --> 02:09:14,345
I want to see my coordinator.
Go look for it.

1422
02:09:15,368 --> 02:09:18,656
- Why aren't they here?
- Where are our coordinators?

1423
02:09:20,308 --> 02:09:22,978
- I'm going to appeal.
- Me too.

1424
02:09:23,506 --> 02:09:26,710
- I'm also going to appeal.
- And me too.

1425
02:09:26,990 --> 02:09:28,511
Here are your lawyers.

1426
02:09:35,065 --> 02:09:38,937
There are trucks of resolutions asking
the death penalty for all of you.

1427
02:09:39,593 --> 02:09:41,836
The international situation is getting worse.

1428
02:09:42,219 --> 02:09:43,944
We are on the verge of a new
world war.

1429
02:09:44,452 --> 02:09:47,406
Now that Eisenhower was elected
In the US, the Party needs them.

1430
02:09:48,205 --> 02:09:51,986
If they appeal,
The attorney will appeal as well.

1431
02:09:53,128 --> 02:09:54,870
That will mean hanging.

1432
02:09:55,458 --> 02:09:58,744
Requests from all over the country
They demand his death.

1433
02:09:58,844 --> 02:10:02,892
If they behave and accept
the court's decision...

1434
02:10:03,004 --> 02:10:04,024
...they will be forgiven.

1435
02:10:04,204 --> 02:10:07,352
The Party needs a process,
not their heads.

1436
02:10:09,016 --> 02:10:13,044
The session opens.
I address the accused.

1437
02:10:13,079 --> 02:10:14,630
Do you accept his sentence?

1438
02:10:15,450 --> 02:10:17,877
I accept my sentence and resign...

1439
02:10:17,957 --> 02:10:19,780
...to use my right to appeal.

1440
02:10:20,467 --> 02:10:24,428
I accept my sentence and resign
to appeal.

1441
02:10:24,663 --> 02:10:26,437
I accept my sentence and resign...

1442
02:10:27,138 --> 02:10:28,481
I accept my sentence.

1443
02:10:29,449 --> 02:10:30,864
I accept my sentence.

1444
02:10:31,300 --> 02:10:39,388
I accept.

1445
02:10:40,051 --> 02:10:41,356
I accept my sentence.

1446
02:10:41,709 --> 02:10:43,270
I accept my sentence...

1447
02:10:43,557 --> 02:10:45,878
<i>...and I renounce the use
of my right to appeal.</i>

1448
02:11:10,885 --> 02:11:14,788
In '63 the rehabilitation
penal is fulfilled for everyone.

1449
02:11:15,542 --> 02:11:18,659
But some are not
politically enabled.

1450
02:11:19,329 --> 02:11:22,516
Why did no one recant in the
process before journalists?

1451
02:11:23,955 --> 02:11:26,260
Because the communists
They wouldn't have believed us.

1452
02:11:26,533 --> 02:11:28,878
Only the adversaries would have
sung victory.

1453
02:11:29,222 --> 02:11:32,895
In '63 they released him
and rehabilitated?

1454
02:11:33,192 --> 02:11:36,724
No, they released me in '56,
but it's more complicated.

1455
02:11:37,593 --> 02:11:41,488
One year after death
of Stalin, in the USSR they executed...

1456
02:11:41,600 --> 02:11:43,233
...to Beria, Minister of Security,

1457
02:11:43,345 --> 02:11:46,156
and certain chief advisors
who organized the processes.

1458
02:11:46,942 --> 02:11:51,313
In '55, a commission
reexamine the processes.

1459
02:11:52,051 --> 02:11:54,862
Kohoutek and his gang go
imprisoned for abuse of power,

1460
02:11:55,134 --> 02:11:56,964
but we, the survivors,
we are still prisoners.

1461
02:11:58,870 --> 02:12:01,928
<i>Two years later
amnesty to Kohoutek,</i>

1462
02:12:02,040 --> 02:12:05,157
<i>while many victims
convicted in other processes,

1463
02:12:05,268 --> 02:12:08,098
<i>they will be trapped
2 or 3 more years.</i>

1464
02:12:18,185 --> 02:12:20,948
No... don't you remember me?

1465
02:12:22,396 --> 02:12:24,247
But... what has happened to us, sir?

1466
02:12:26,317 --> 02:12:30,620
you understand something? You know that
in '56, when he was released...

1467
02:12:30,896 --> 02:12:34,825
...I was imprisoned? Yes! I don't know anymore
knows what is true or false.

1468
02:12:34,925 --> 02:12:37,721
But... those who gave the
orders always remain in power.

1469
02:12:38,469 --> 02:12:43,083
I executed the orders.
There were microphones watching me.

1470
02:12:43,768 --> 02:12:45,860
May I invite you
to a beer?

1471
02:12:47,049 --> 02:12:48,720
And how is your wife?

1472
02:12:49,781 --> 02:12:54,404
I know that after the facts,
seeing that you were innocent,

1473
02:12:54,613 --> 02:12:57,657
He did a lot for you,
here and in France.

1474
02:12:58,781 --> 02:13:02,102
And health? Better?
You have to take care of yourself.

1475
02:13:03,172 --> 02:13:06,016
I... I looked for myself
a quiet job.

1476
02:13:06,288 --> 02:13:08,725
They don't catch me anymore.
Never.

1477
02:13:10,458 --> 02:13:12,901
I'm happy for you, sir.

1478
02:13:15,349 --> 02:13:19,001
APRIL 1968

1479
02:13:19,382 --> 02:13:24,304
The story of Kohoutek...
Do you want to keep it?

1480
02:13:27,674 --> 02:13:31,401
"But what has happened to us, sir?
you Do you understand anything?"

1481
02:13:39,274 --> 02:13:43,514
AUGUST 20, 1968

1482
02:13:44,340 --> 02:13:46,284
I didn't sleep at all.

1483
02:13:49,136 --> 02:13:52,825
- Will you really publish it?
- It's not me who publishes it,

1484
02:13:52,929 --> 02:13:54,812
but the Writers Union
Czechoslovaks.

1485
02:13:55,071 --> 02:13:58,112
- They are waiting for the manuscripts.
- The situation is not clear.

1486
02:13:58,444 --> 02:14:00,121
The imperialist forces
have been unleashed.

1487
02:14:00,281 --> 02:14:02,477
- You run the risk of carrying...
- ... grist to the adversary's mill.

1488
02:14:02,589 --> 02:14:06,957
I know, I know. But...
You're coming with me, right?

1489
02:14:08,663 --> 02:14:11,328
Now I'm not alone.
The Party agrees...

1490
02:14:11,408 --> 02:14:14,216
...and demands the truth,
despite the difficulties.

1491
02:14:14,296 --> 02:14:16,032
I hope we don't regret it.

1492
02:14:16,456 --> 02:14:18,199
- They will tell you...
- Many things.

1493
02:14:18,519 --> 02:14:21,028
They will tell me: "Instead,
"I wouldn't have confessed."

1494
02:14:21,458 --> 02:14:24,652
They will ask me what I am doing alive.
Let them say what they want.

1495
02:14:24,765 --> 02:14:28,825
But I'm not alone anymore. now I speak
with the Party and they support me.

1496
02:14:35,243 --> 02:14:39,032
<i>In January 1968, the conservatives
They were driven away...</i>

1497
02:14:39,112 --> 02:14:41,820
<i>...of the Party leadership
Czechoslovak Communist.</i>

1498
02:14:42,111 --> 02:14:45,993
<i>A new period began.
The people took up the word...</i>

1499
02:14:46,037 --> 02:14:48,625
<i>...after years of silence,
of passivity,</i>

1500
02:14:48,698 --> 02:14:50,808
<i>...of indifference or contempt.</i>

1501
02:14:51,185 --> 02:14:52,813
<i>The proof had been given:</i>

1502
02:14:52,941 --> 02:14:55,284
<i>socialism is
in the freedom of the masses...</i>

1503
02:14:55,412 --> 02:14:57,233
<i>...like a fish in water.</i>

1504
02:14:57,980 --> 02:15:01,518
<i>Then, the same day
when I arrived in Prague,</i>

1505
02:15:01,926 --> 02:15:05,294
<i>I had to live through the invasion
of the country by 600,000 men...</i>

1506
02:15:05,925 --> 02:15:09,412
<i>...and 6000 army tanks
of the Warsaw Pact.</i>

1507
02:17:06,097 --> 02:17:19,505
WAKE UP, LENIN!
THEY GONE CRAZY!
