1
00:01:29,083 --> 00:01:30,625
My name is Antonio.

2
00:01:30,791 --> 00:01:34,250
I was born in Italy,
in a small town in the South,

3
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:36,291
but that's not important.

4
00:01:36,541 --> 00:01:40,958
I could have been born anywhere
and have stopped here for several reasons.

5
00:01:41,458 --> 00:01:45,625
Anyway, if I'm here,
It's because there is a reason.

6
00:01:46,541 --> 00:01:47,833
Even if at first glance

7
00:01:48,250 --> 00:01:50,375
I have thought
which was because of my music.

8
00:01:51,375 --> 00:01:53,083
I majored in clarinet

9
00:01:53,333 --> 00:01:56,166
and after a few years,
I moved to Czechoslovakia,

10
00:01:56,541 --> 00:02:00,791
with the dream of someday playing
in the largest orchestra in Central Europe.

11
00:02:01,916 --> 00:02:05,250
The first thing that got me
when I arrived in Prague

12
00:02:05,375 --> 00:02:06,583
it was the light.

13
00:02:07,083 --> 00:02:10,250
It was so different
than I was used to.

14
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,416
Where I come from,
even the shadows were illuminated.

15
00:02:14,541 --> 00:02:18,791
The sunlight bathed everything,
even mourning,

16
00:02:19,083 --> 00:02:21,375
people's hopes and dreams.

17
00:02:22,625 --> 00:02:25,250
The second thing was the language.

18
00:02:26,291 --> 00:02:28,208
It took me a while to get used to it.

19
00:02:29,250 --> 00:02:32,416
All those consonants,
the strange sounds.

20
00:02:33,375 --> 00:02:35,055
But considering what I do,

21
00:02:35,166 --> 00:02:39,458
all different notes,
In the end, I adapted.

22
00:02:40,458 --> 00:02:42,875
And the way they deal with music.

23
00:02:42,958 --> 00:02:47,541
Gently, almost
shy, full of melancholy

24
00:02:47,875 --> 00:02:51,708
that unexpectedly explodes
with the greatest passion possible.

25
00:02:51,791 --> 00:02:53,333
That takes you by surprise.

26
00:02:57,250 --> 00:03:00,416
But what surprised me most,
more than anything,

27
00:03:01,791 --> 00:03:02,833
it was her.

28
00:03:39,416 --> 00:03:40,916
MUSIC CONCERT - CLARINET

29
00:04:12,125 --> 00:04:14,375
THE ART OF SURVIVAL

30
00:04:14,458 --> 00:04:16,708
BASED ON REAL FACTS

31
00:04:54,333 --> 00:04:55,375
Get out!

32
00:04:58,916 --> 00:05:01,416
OCTOBER 1942

33
00:05:53,916 --> 00:05:54,916
Stop!

34
00:06:05,916 --> 00:06:06,916
Come on!

35
00:06:39,291 --> 00:06:41,916
WORK FREES YOU

36
00:07:19,875 --> 00:07:20,916
The suitcase.

37
00:07:21,958 --> 00:07:23,541
The suitcase.

38
00:07:39,958 --> 00:07:41,083
Take off your clothes.

39
00:07:44,750 --> 00:07:45,750
No wasted time.

40
00:07:57,916 --> 00:07:58,916
Get dressed.

41
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:10,500
Take off your clothes.

42
00:08:16,041 --> 00:08:17,083
What is your name?

43
00:08:19,541 --> 00:08:20,750
What is your name?

44
00:08:21,958 --> 00:08:24,291
Antonio Salomon.

45
00:08:28,375 --> 00:08:29,416
Turn around.

46
00:08:31,458 --> 00:08:32,583
I said run.

47
00:08:41,208 --> 00:08:44,416
Transport number: B-J-2.

48
00:08:46,083 --> 00:08:47,125
Outside.

49
00:09:24,291 --> 00:09:25,416
Where am I?

50
00:09:26,333 --> 00:09:27,375
What is your name?

51
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:30,541
Antonio.

52
00:09:30,791 --> 00:09:31,833
Antonio,

53
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,583
It's okay, trust me.

54
00:09:34,666 --> 00:09:35,750
My name is Hans.

55
00:09:35,875 --> 00:09:36,916
Hans Krasa.

56
00:09:39,375 --> 00:09:40,833
Welcome to Terezín.

57
00:09:42,875 --> 00:09:44,125
What place is this?

58
00:09:44,708 --> 00:09:48,500
The new home
which the Germans kindly gave us.

59
00:09:48,791 --> 00:09:49,875
They call it:

60
00:09:50,083 --> 00:09:52,916
"Autonomous zone
for Jewish settlement".

61
00:09:53,375 --> 00:09:56,916
But it's just a ghetto they put us in.

62
00:10:00,416 --> 00:10:03,666
We are all in the same boat, Antônio.

63
00:10:04,166 --> 00:10:05,791
Nobody wants to hurt you.

64
00:10:07,125 --> 00:10:08,208
Martina.

65
00:10:08,750 --> 00:10:09,958
I need to find her.

66
00:10:10,083 --> 00:10:11,125
Martina?

67
00:10:11,583 --> 00:10:12,708
Who is Martina?

68
00:10:13,458 --> 00:10:15,708
She was with me.

69
00:10:15,791 --> 00:10:16,833
Excellent.

70
00:10:18,291 --> 00:10:19,541
You will see her soon.

71
00:10:21,625 --> 00:10:23,541
What's the first night here like?

72
00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:28,875
Same as all the others
that will pass here in Terezín.

73
00:10:55,750 --> 00:10:58,958
All SS members are your superiors

74
00:10:59,375 --> 00:11:02,500
and must call them "My Commander".

75
00:11:03,458 --> 00:11:08,000
If you haven't been given any work yet,
They'll soon put you in charge of services.

76
00:11:08,083 --> 00:11:09,125
BLOCK A

77
00:11:09,208 --> 00:11:12,416
Every prisoner needs to be clean,
in order,

78
00:11:12,500 --> 00:11:17,125
and be present every day
for the call at the stipulated time,

79
00:11:17,250 --> 00:11:19,416
without any exception.

80
00:11:21,958 --> 00:11:25,958
During working hours,
smoking or reading is prohibited.

81
00:11:26,166 --> 00:11:29,291
It is extremely prohibited to take men
to the rooms.

82
00:11:29,458 --> 00:11:34,916
Letters will only be delivered or sent
after they are analyzed.

83
00:11:36,375 --> 00:11:39,458
It is prohibited to write anything
about the ghetto.

84
00:11:39,666 --> 00:11:43,041
It is prohibited to use abbreviations and underlining.

85
00:11:43,708 --> 00:11:46,833
Curfew is 8pm.

86
00:11:47,250 --> 00:11:49,958
All streets must be empty.

87
00:11:51,416 --> 00:11:54,083
Any rule breaking

88
00:11:54,750 --> 00:11:56,958
will result in severe punishments.

89
00:11:59,125 --> 00:12:01,541
Now, get out.

90
00:12:14,291 --> 00:12:16,375
I said get out!

91
00:13:02,500 --> 00:13:04,375
Isn't that used for dead bodies?

92
00:13:06,875 --> 00:13:08,958
Come on!

93
00:13:11,708 --> 00:13:12,708
Outside!

94
00:13:15,166 --> 00:13:16,333
The next one.

95
00:13:25,666 --> 00:13:27,041
Transport number?

96
00:13:29,083 --> 00:13:30,416
Antonio Salomon.

97
00:13:30,500 --> 00:13:32,500
Your transport number.

98
00:13:33,041 --> 00:13:34,250
B-J-2.

99
00:13:34,916 --> 00:13:37,208
Well, what do you do?

100
00:13:38,625 --> 00:13:39,708
Musicians.

101
00:13:40,666 --> 00:13:41,708
Both of us.

102
00:13:42,958 --> 00:13:45,583
Do they live alone or with relatives?

103
00:13:46,458 --> 00:13:47,541
Alone.

104
00:13:50,458 --> 00:13:52,500
- Are you Italian?
- Yes.

105
00:13:54,375 --> 00:13:56,125
And where are your parents?

106
00:13:58,166 --> 00:13:59,250
In Italy.

107
00:14:00,166 --> 00:14:01,208
I hope.

108
00:14:03,166 --> 00:14:04,791
I came here alone,

109
00:14:05,583 --> 00:14:07,375
to study and play music.

110
00:14:10,708 --> 00:14:12,083
Do you have children?

111
00:14:13,208 --> 00:14:14,208
No.

112
00:14:20,083 --> 00:14:21,500
Musician?

113
00:14:22,416 --> 00:14:25,041
Now let's have fun.

114
00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:27,375
That's my job, I play music.

115
00:14:27,458 --> 00:14:29,125
What does your father do?

116
00:14:29,666 --> 00:14:32,041
He is a teacher, works at a school.

117
00:14:32,125 --> 00:14:33,416
Very good.

118
00:14:43,875 --> 00:14:45,083
Resekova,

119
00:14:45,708 --> 00:14:46,916
you are Jewish,

120
00:14:47,625 --> 00:14:49,208
Are you too, Salomon?

121
00:14:49,291 --> 00:14:52,375
No, I mean, yes, in part.

122
00:14:53,458 --> 00:14:55,208
My father and grandfather are.

123
00:14:55,291 --> 00:14:56,416
Half-breed.

124
00:14:58,500 --> 00:15:00,375
Do you intend to leave the city?

125
00:15:00,916 --> 00:15:02,208
Go to Italy, maybe?

126
00:15:04,875 --> 00:15:06,541
I don't think so.

127
00:15:06,833 --> 00:15:08,500
Do you think not?

128
00:15:09,791 --> 00:15:10,833
No.

129
00:15:11,208 --> 00:15:12,708
Prague is our home.

130
00:15:15,958 --> 00:15:17,208
Take this.

131
00:15:20,166 --> 00:15:21,208
And sign.

132
00:15:30,208 --> 00:15:34,041
I certify receipt
of a Jewish star.

133
00:15:36,875 --> 00:15:40,708
I am aware of the decree
which regulates the display of this star.

134
00:15:46,458 --> 00:15:47,583
I am also aware

135
00:15:47,791 --> 00:15:51,333
that I cannot leave my home
without authorization.

136
00:15:53,208 --> 00:15:55,291
I will try my best to take care

137
00:15:55,458 --> 00:15:57,625
and handle this identification with care.

138
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,583
Now, you are a farmer.

139
00:16:04,458 --> 00:16:05,541
Farmer.

140
00:16:05,833 --> 00:16:07,083
Out, Jew!

141
00:16:09,208 --> 00:16:10,291
Outside!

142
00:16:17,250 --> 00:16:18,291
Stop!

143
00:16:41,666 --> 00:16:42,916
I need to say,

144
00:16:43,958 --> 00:16:46,791
I certainly worked less in the kitchens,

145
00:16:48,250 --> 00:16:51,208
But I prefer to breathe this fresh air

146
00:16:51,791 --> 00:16:54,625
and enjoy the landscape.

147
00:16:56,125 --> 00:16:57,125
Thanks.

148
00:16:58,291 --> 00:16:59,625
I'm sore all over.

149
00:17:00,375 --> 00:17:01,833
I'm not used to this.

150
00:17:02,875 --> 00:17:04,708
What did you do before coming here?

151
00:17:05,833 --> 00:17:07,250
I played music.

152
00:17:07,625 --> 00:17:08,916
Clarinet.

153
00:17:09,666 --> 00:17:11,208
I'm a musician too.

154
00:17:14,166 --> 00:17:18,416
So what's the situation?
in this charming village?

155
00:17:19,083 --> 00:17:20,708
It's complicated, My Commander.

156
00:17:20,875 --> 00:17:24,291
If this place were a hotel,
I would say we have no vacancies.

157
00:17:24,833 --> 00:17:27,791
It means that the plan
Eichmann's work worked.

158
00:17:28,208 --> 00:17:30,958
"In the enchanting spas of Terezín".

159
00:17:31,583 --> 00:17:34,500
A formidable idea for the spa,

160
00:17:35,541 --> 00:17:38,375
But now, we need to deal
with new arrivals.

161
00:17:38,458 --> 00:17:43,625
A big number, from Germany this time.

162
00:17:43,750 --> 00:17:46,708
Most are middle aged or elderly.

163
00:17:48,375 --> 00:17:52,166
We're running out of space
in the dormitories.

164
00:17:52,541 --> 00:17:55,625
Every dorm room needs
offer more space,

165
00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:58,500
we need to use every inch.

166
00:17:58,833 --> 00:18:02,916
There is a project for us to use the attics.

167
00:18:03,291 --> 00:18:05,208
This way, we will have more space.

168
00:18:05,791 --> 00:18:07,625
Considering
how hot it is lately,

169
00:18:07,708 --> 00:18:12,291
will be ideal for those
who want to have the thermal experience.

170
00:18:12,458 --> 00:18:16,958
And to find a tap,
a sink or a bathroom,

171
00:18:17,083 --> 00:18:20,500
the elderly will need to climb
and go down the stairs countless times.

172
00:18:21,458 --> 00:18:23,166
Spas and physical activities.

173
00:18:25,791 --> 00:18:27,111
They couldn't get any healthier.

174
00:18:27,458 --> 00:18:28,458
Let's proceed.

175
00:18:28,666 --> 00:18:30,125
Everyone is watching us.

176
00:18:30,500 --> 00:18:33,583
Terezín needs to be “the model ghetto”.

177
00:18:33,875 --> 00:18:35,750
Which is what Berlin is asking for.

178
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:46,583
That being the case,

179
00:18:47,125 --> 00:18:50,708
maybe we need to give in to one thing
or another.

180
00:18:50,833 --> 00:18:54,416
Silent animals are easier
to deal with.

181
00:18:54,916 --> 00:18:56,333
I need someone

182
00:18:56,958 --> 00:18:59,166
who is responsible for the council
of the elderly.

183
00:18:59,291 --> 00:19:01,250
Bring me Belstein.

184
00:19:01,333 --> 00:19:02,625
Great, it will be done.

185
00:19:04,583 --> 00:19:06,833
They send us all to the fields,

186
00:19:07,250 --> 00:19:10,125
writers, painters, musicians.

187
00:19:13,250 --> 00:19:16,916
If you want to take away your freedom
and the dignity of a person,

188
00:19:17,083 --> 00:19:19,333
start destroying her culture.

189
00:19:20,208 --> 00:19:21,708
But they won't make it.

190
00:19:23,083 --> 00:19:24,125
Are you sure?

191
00:19:24,375 --> 00:19:26,458
As much as the air we breathe,

192
00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:31,500
and the music we play
and we keep playing it in our heads.

193
00:19:33,041 --> 00:19:34,208
Aren't you Czech?

194
00:19:35,166 --> 00:19:37,625
No, I'm Italian.

195
00:19:37,708 --> 00:19:38,708
Italian?

196
00:19:39,458 --> 00:19:40,791
And how did you end up here?

197
00:19:42,166 --> 00:19:43,708
My fiancee is Czech.

198
00:19:44,375 --> 00:19:46,166
They picked us up in Prague.

199
00:19:46,791 --> 00:19:48,041
She's here too.

200
00:19:48,708 --> 00:19:49,708
Martina.

201
00:19:51,375 --> 00:19:52,625
Do you remember?

202
00:19:53,583 --> 00:19:55,125
I have a good memory.

203
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,125
And you?

204
00:19:59,750 --> 00:20:01,500
I was born in Prague.

205
00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:04,916
What do you play?

206
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,916
So-so violin.

207
00:20:07,250 --> 00:20:09,708
Piano, a little better,
but I'm a composer.

208
00:20:10,041 --> 00:20:11,375
How wonderful,

209
00:20:12,041 --> 00:20:13,208
a composer.

210
00:20:14,833 --> 00:20:16,125
And you too, right?

211
00:20:16,791 --> 00:20:20,791
Live with what the composers put out
on paper.

212
00:20:22,375 --> 00:20:25,125
Sir, with all due respect,

213
00:20:26,208 --> 00:20:27,916
There's no way the dorms can handle it...

214
00:20:27,958 --> 00:20:29,958
No excuses, Belstein

215
00:20:30,333 --> 00:20:31,791
It needs to be done and that's it.

216
00:20:33,333 --> 00:20:36,625
Where is there room for a hundred Jews,
There's room for a hundred more.

217
00:20:37,083 --> 00:20:38,375
And,

218
00:20:39,208 --> 00:20:41,416
As we think about your situation here,

219
00:20:41,958 --> 00:20:45,458
our best architects are
thinking about how to use attics.

220
00:20:46,666 --> 00:20:47,791
The attics?

221
00:20:47,875 --> 00:20:49,708
Don't be discouraged, Belstein.

222
00:20:49,833 --> 00:20:50,916
Instead,

223
00:20:50,958 --> 00:20:54,916
help us think about how we can
improve the situation in general.

224
00:20:55,083 --> 00:20:59,291
Really, the conditions here are not...

225
00:21:03,916 --> 00:21:04,916
well.

226
00:21:07,250 --> 00:21:08,541
In other words,

227
00:21:08,625 --> 00:21:12,208
Could you perhaps provide a little
of fun for a few hours?

228
00:21:12,583 --> 00:21:14,416
What do you mean exactly?

229
00:21:14,666 --> 00:21:16,250
Maybe, music.

230
00:21:17,333 --> 00:21:19,916
Or perhaps, small performances.

231
00:21:20,666 --> 00:21:24,166
Here in Terezín,
there is a large concentration of artists.

232
00:21:24,958 --> 00:21:27,208
Musicians, writers.

233
00:21:27,791 --> 00:21:29,041
The simplest thing

234
00:21:29,125 --> 00:21:32,041
would be to give them the opportunity
to do something they are good at.

235
00:21:34,083 --> 00:21:35,500
I'll think.

236
00:21:36,458 --> 00:21:41,166
For now, let's just establish
a leisure department.

237
00:21:41,458 --> 00:21:45,166
So, you will explain to Haindl
what you would like to do.

238
00:21:46,791 --> 00:21:48,000
But remember,

239
00:21:48,750 --> 00:21:51,750
if it interferes
in the main works of the ghetto,

240
00:21:51,958 --> 00:21:55,375
all activities
will be immediately suspended.

241
00:22:00,958 --> 00:22:02,375
You can go now.

242
00:22:08,291 --> 00:22:11,041
You can't even imagine how these things
make me irritated.

243
00:22:11,125 --> 00:22:12,958
I understand, My Commander.

244
00:22:13,833 --> 00:22:19,291
Like Ignis Huttenbau's suggestion
for four new crematoriums.

245
00:22:19,541 --> 00:22:21,041
They are necessary, sir.

246
00:22:21,333 --> 00:22:25,416
Two thousand and five hundred deaths
per month is no longer manageable.

247
00:22:26,083 --> 00:22:27,843
We need to free ourselves
of bodies faster.

248
00:22:27,958 --> 00:22:30,041
And the typhus epidemic
It's not helping at all.

249
00:22:30,250 --> 00:22:32,541
- Are you following my orders?
- Yes.

250
00:22:32,833 --> 00:22:36,000
Full isolation
to prevent further infections.

251
00:22:36,708 --> 00:22:38,351
No service
for the most serious cases.

252
00:22:38,375 --> 00:22:39,375
Perfect.

253
00:22:39,458 --> 00:22:42,416
At least we took some weight off
from our shores.

254
00:22:56,500 --> 00:22:57,625
Frau Brandeis.

255
00:23:03,083 --> 00:23:04,791
This is Martina Resekova.

256
00:23:04,875 --> 00:23:06,750
She will help you with the children.

257
00:23:07,375 --> 00:23:09,958
So I won't need
listen to you complaining.

258
00:23:11,833 --> 00:23:14,666
Frau Brandeis will explain
their duties properly,

259
00:23:14,750 --> 00:23:17,833
but remember, school work
is strictly prohibited.

260
00:23:18,750 --> 00:23:19,791
You understood?

261
00:23:21,958 --> 00:23:23,041
Yes, I understood.

262
00:23:23,666 --> 00:23:24,708
Excellent.

263
00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:31,708
Someone find this woman a bed.

264
00:23:32,083 --> 00:23:34,083
She will sleep here from now on.

265
00:23:36,625 --> 00:23:38,250
Don't worry,

266
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:40,250
she looks bad at first,

267
00:23:40,333 --> 00:23:43,291
but then you realize
that she is even worse.

268
00:23:44,583 --> 00:23:45,791
I perceived.

269
00:23:46,666 --> 00:23:48,458
Come.

270
00:23:49,041 --> 00:23:50,500
How long have you been here?

271
00:23:50,833 --> 00:23:51,916
Not a lot.

272
00:23:52,541 --> 00:23:54,458
But I don't remember when I arrived.

273
00:23:54,916 --> 00:23:57,250
You must be the second type then.

274
00:23:57,791 --> 00:23:58,958
What do you mean by that?

275
00:23:59,083 --> 00:24:01,833
There are two types of people here in Terezín:

276
00:24:02,041 --> 00:24:04,833
Those who count the days,
the hours and even the minutes

277
00:24:04,916 --> 00:24:07,416
since they arrived here and there are those

278
00:24:08,541 --> 00:24:13,000
who lose their sense of time,
while trying to forget everything else.

279
00:24:13,458 --> 00:24:16,500
Here, you can stay close to Marika.

280
00:24:25,791 --> 00:24:28,875
- Do you like children?
- Yes a lot.

281
00:24:29,666 --> 00:24:31,333
Do you have any?

282
00:24:31,875 --> 00:24:32,875
No.

283
00:24:33,166 --> 00:24:35,500
Well, you'll get some here!

284
00:24:36,208 --> 00:24:41,500
Your parents work during the day
and it's our job to keep an eye on them.

285
00:24:42,583 --> 00:24:46,750
But what do we do all day
if practically everything is prohibited?

286
00:24:46,875 --> 00:24:48,708
Almost everything.

287
00:24:49,375 --> 00:24:50,666
You will be,

288
00:24:51,166 --> 00:24:53,041
there's always a way.

289
00:24:54,958 --> 00:24:56,958
Now, tell me about yourself.

290
00:24:57,208 --> 00:24:59,583
Where are you from? What it does?

291
00:25:00,166 --> 00:25:01,458
I'm from Prague,

292
00:25:01,958 --> 00:25:03,375
I'm a violinist.

293
00:25:04,291 --> 00:25:05,708
This is wonderful.

294
00:25:07,041 --> 00:25:09,083
- Did you come here alone?
- No.

295
00:25:09,250 --> 00:25:10,416
I came with Antônio.

296
00:25:10,958 --> 00:25:12,375
He is also a musician.

297
00:25:12,458 --> 00:25:13,833
We live together.

298
00:25:14,166 --> 00:25:17,958
He knew what was happening,
He wanted to run away, but they...

299
00:25:19,458 --> 00:25:21,583
I don't even know where he is.

300
00:25:22,541 --> 00:25:23,833
Don't worry,

301
00:25:24,500 --> 00:25:26,916
I also came here with my husband.

302
00:25:27,458 --> 00:25:28,500
Pavel.

303
00:25:28,833 --> 00:25:31,541
It took almost a month
to meet again.

304
00:25:32,666 --> 00:25:34,208
But we did it.

305
00:25:35,166 --> 00:25:37,458
If Antônio is here in the ghetto,

306
00:25:38,375 --> 00:25:39,416
you will find it.

307
00:25:49,083 --> 00:25:50,625
I'm not going in.

308
00:25:51,166 --> 00:25:53,958
I didn't pay for it!

309
00:25:54,875 --> 00:25:57,916
I want a house, not an attic!

310
00:25:58,458 --> 00:26:02,708
You already took half of my bags.

311
00:26:03,166 --> 00:26:05,208
No. I'm not going in.

312
00:26:05,291 --> 00:26:08,041
And these are supposed to be the Terezín baths?

313
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:10,500
I sold my house and two stores

314
00:26:10,583 --> 00:26:14,166
for an apartment with a garden
and a view of the river.

315
00:26:14,541 --> 00:26:16,125
I'm not staying here, no, sir!

316
00:26:16,666 --> 00:26:17,708
This is an insult!

317
00:26:18,125 --> 00:26:19,166
Silence.

318
00:26:19,875 --> 00:26:22,333
- Silence!
- Let's go back to the station!

319
00:26:33,458 --> 00:26:35,208
For your own good,

320
00:26:36,916 --> 00:26:39,291
do what we order

321
00:26:40,458 --> 00:26:42,958
and we won't have any more incidents.

322
00:26:46,208 --> 00:26:47,208
Come in.

323
00:26:48,083 --> 00:26:49,208
Come in, Jews!

324
00:26:50,750 --> 00:26:51,833
Fast!

325
00:27:14,708 --> 00:27:18,791
I bet it's cooler inside
than here.

326
00:27:23,833 --> 00:27:26,458
And easier to smoke in peace.

327
00:28:22,708 --> 00:28:24,291
What is a piano doing here?

328
00:28:26,958 --> 00:28:28,583
It's what's left of a piano.

329
00:28:55,958 --> 00:28:58,166
That's the only thing
that I can't understand.

330
00:29:00,166 --> 00:29:01,750
Many deaths.

331
00:29:02,500 --> 00:29:06,958
They take the bodies to the crematorium
on tractors instead of carts.

332
00:29:07,250 --> 00:29:08,250
But why?

333
00:29:08,416 --> 00:29:10,291
These are the only vehicles
allowed here.

334
00:29:11,041 --> 00:29:14,708
They use them to transport tools,
bricks, food,

335
00:29:15,291 --> 00:29:16,375
everything

336
00:29:17,625 --> 00:29:19,166
for those who are still alive.

337
00:29:20,250 --> 00:29:23,458
The real world is upside down
down here in Terezín.

338
00:29:28,291 --> 00:29:29,291
Martina.

339
00:29:31,958 --> 00:29:33,041
She is not alone.

340
00:30:16,166 --> 00:30:17,583
Just smile.

341
00:30:18,875 --> 00:30:20,625
Smile, please.

342
00:30:21,166 --> 00:30:22,750
Now you know she's alive.

343
00:31:13,583 --> 00:31:16,750
Show Martina
how good you all are.

344
00:31:50,250 --> 00:31:51,250
Children.

345
00:31:53,875 --> 00:31:55,416
Everyone calm down.

346
00:31:56,791 --> 00:32:00,583
You know this is a game
that we must play in silence.

347
00:32:08,333 --> 00:32:10,333
They will make the drawings

348
00:32:11,166 --> 00:32:13,208
and then, they color.

349
00:32:15,166 --> 00:32:16,500
Despite his age,

350
00:32:16,875 --> 00:32:20,375
they understand more
than we could imagine.

351
00:32:20,791 --> 00:32:22,916
They know they need to be alert,

352
00:32:23,875 --> 00:32:25,625
without making noise.

353
00:32:25,916 --> 00:32:28,333
I wish I had their self-control.

354
00:32:33,208 --> 00:32:36,208
IT'S A DAY IN THE RUINS OF THE GHETTO WE...

355
00:32:41,875 --> 00:32:44,416
Rudolf, can you hear me?

356
00:32:44,541 --> 00:32:45,791
Yes, My Commander.

357
00:32:46,458 --> 00:32:48,708
Alert the office.

358
00:32:49,208 --> 00:32:53,166
Whoever is on the list, stays on the list,
no changes!

359
00:32:53,708 --> 00:32:55,916
It doesn't take much
to give these people

360
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,625
an excuse to start a mess.

361
00:32:58,750 --> 00:32:59,750
Yes sir!

362
00:33:07,958 --> 00:33:10,125
Deport anyone
that cause any problems.

363
00:33:15,166 --> 00:33:17,416
Can I have your attention?

364
00:33:18,333 --> 00:33:20,708
Can all musicians come here?

365
00:33:21,708 --> 00:33:22,833
Please.

366
00:33:30,958 --> 00:33:32,791
I have good news for you.

367
00:33:33,333 --> 00:33:36,375
Herr Schmitt gave permission
for you to play twice a week,

368
00:33:36,458 --> 00:33:37,791
in groups too.

369
00:33:38,083 --> 00:33:39,083
Yes.

370
00:33:40,166 --> 00:33:44,500
And they will be pleased to be supervised
by Maestro Rafael Schachter,

371
00:33:44,583 --> 00:33:46,184
which, of course,
some of you already know.

372
00:33:46,208 --> 00:33:49,500
Yes, but what about our instruments?

373
00:33:50,958 --> 00:33:54,625
Jakob assured me he will take care of it.

374
00:33:54,791 --> 00:33:58,916
I found a small grand piano
in the barn.

375
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,708
It's a little finished,

376
00:34:01,208 --> 00:34:04,166
but if Herr Schmitt will allow me to bring him
over here,

377
00:34:05,416 --> 00:34:06,476
I think I can fix it.

378
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:08,416
I will make the request,
Maestro Ullmann.

379
00:34:08,500 --> 00:34:09,875
Thanks.

380
00:34:09,958 --> 00:34:13,500
I'm glad to see you again,
Maestro Schachter.

381
00:34:13,791 --> 00:34:16,958
The pleasure is all mine, Friedrich.

382
00:34:18,750 --> 00:34:22,125
I have this cello with me
since I was 11 years old.

383
00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:26,291
I would be able to recognize you
with eyes closed,

384
00:34:26,375 --> 00:34:28,458
even for the sound it makes.

385
00:34:29,166 --> 00:34:31,625
Wherever I go, he goes with me.

386
00:34:32,583 --> 00:34:35,750
I broke it into pieces
before being deported.

387
00:34:38,583 --> 00:34:39,583
Good.

388
00:34:39,791 --> 00:34:41,583
Piano and cello.

389
00:34:42,458 --> 00:34:43,875
We started well.

390
00:34:43,958 --> 00:34:48,041
As soon as we have more instruments
and a place to play, you will be informed.

391
00:34:48,500 --> 00:34:49,500
Goodnight!

392
00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:51,375
Before we go,

393
00:34:51,458 --> 00:34:54,333
would you allow me
greet my musicians?

394
00:34:54,458 --> 00:34:55,625
As you wish.

395
00:34:59,041 --> 00:35:01,125
- Maestro.
- Nice to meet you, Maestro.

396
00:35:03,250 --> 00:35:05,375
Maestro, do you remember me?

397
00:35:07,041 --> 00:35:08,083
Should I?

398
00:35:59,041 --> 00:36:00,083
Here you are.

399
00:36:00,666 --> 00:36:04,208
Mrs Resekova spoke about you
and I said to myself:

400
00:36:04,291 --> 00:36:09,583
"Let's meet the new violinist's fiancé
of the Prague Chamber Orchestra".

401
00:36:09,666 --> 00:36:11,666
So, everything went well.

402
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:15,916
- Yes, did you have any questions?
- No way, Maestro.

403
00:36:16,166 --> 00:36:18,833
After a few seconds, neither did I.

404
00:36:18,916 --> 00:36:19,916
Thanks!

405
00:36:20,416 --> 00:36:23,916
Martina told me you came
I come here because of the music.

406
00:36:24,166 --> 00:36:25,666
And what do you think of Prague?

407
00:36:26,208 --> 00:36:30,083
I traveled around Europe for a while
and I stopped here.

408
00:36:30,750 --> 00:36:33,541
It seemed like the best place for me to grow up.

409
00:36:33,958 --> 00:36:35,708
The clarinetist!

410
00:36:35,875 --> 00:36:37,666
Of course, now I remember.

411
00:36:38,583 --> 00:36:42,500
Maestro, I believe you will speak
with the other musicians in the ghetto, right?

412
00:36:42,583 --> 00:36:44,625
- Yes.
- Martina is here.

413
00:36:44,958 --> 00:36:48,625
If you see her,
tell me I'm well and alive.

414
00:36:49,250 --> 00:36:52,000
I will, without a doubt.

415
00:36:52,166 --> 00:36:53,166
Thanks.

416
00:37:07,875 --> 00:37:09,166
Look around you.

417
00:37:10,166 --> 00:37:12,416
Have you ever seen them like this?

418
00:37:13,250 --> 00:37:15,791
It feels like the beginning of something new,

419
00:37:16,166 --> 00:37:17,500
something special.

420
00:37:18,958 --> 00:37:20,625
Can I ask you a personal question?

421
00:37:20,708 --> 00:37:22,625
Of course, it's a good time.

422
00:37:23,625 --> 00:37:25,125
I wasn't spying on you,

423
00:37:25,708 --> 00:37:27,833
but I saw you composing something.

424
00:37:29,458 --> 00:37:30,833
What is "Brundibar"?

425
00:37:34,166 --> 00:37:36,458
It's an opera written for children,

426
00:37:36,541 --> 00:37:39,000
but it hides something bigger than that.

427
00:37:39,166 --> 00:37:42,291
It is victory over tyranny,
at least musically.

428
00:37:42,833 --> 00:37:47,291
It was performed for the first time
in the Jewish orphanage in Prague,

429
00:37:47,375 --> 00:37:48,791
but I was already here.

430
00:37:49,291 --> 00:37:53,166
Otto Freudenfeld, the director of the orphanage,
got the piano part for me.

431
00:37:53,458 --> 00:37:57,333
Now I'm rebuilding everything.

432
00:37:57,666 --> 00:38:01,250
Hans, if I can help you
somehow, I will be happy.

433
00:38:01,583 --> 00:38:04,250
Even finding papers
for you to write.

434
00:38:29,958 --> 00:38:31,666
How are we with the lists?

435
00:38:31,791 --> 00:38:34,458
They should be complete by now, sir.

436
00:38:35,333 --> 00:38:36,416
Should they be?

437
00:38:57,250 --> 00:38:59,625
Were you careful not to separate the families?

438
00:39:00,250 --> 00:39:03,375
If one goes, they all go.

439
00:39:07,083 --> 00:39:09,958
And they accuse us of not having compassion.

440
00:39:10,583 --> 00:39:13,333
Certainly, My Commander.

441
00:39:18,375 --> 00:39:19,791
Maestro Krasa,

442
00:39:20,666 --> 00:39:22,166
welcome to “Castle”,

443
00:39:22,541 --> 00:39:24,125
as everyone calls him.

444
00:39:24,208 --> 00:39:25,208
Please.

445
00:39:26,208 --> 00:39:27,208
Thanks.

446
00:39:30,916 --> 00:39:33,416
Here are the offices
who manage our lives.

447
00:39:33,958 --> 00:39:36,750
We handle food distribution,

448
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:41,000
daycare, dormitories and post office.

449
00:39:41,666 --> 00:39:44,458
But recently we added
other office:

450
00:39:45,375 --> 00:39:47,625
the “Department of Free Time”.

451
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,833
What at first
seemed like a minor concession,

452
00:39:50,916 --> 00:39:53,416
has become an important issue
to be coordinated.

453
00:39:54,375 --> 00:39:56,375
You are here
because I would like your help.

454
00:39:58,166 --> 00:40:01,375
I need your experience
to manage the “music section”.

455
00:40:04,083 --> 00:40:09,166
Considering the abundance of musicians
Here in Terezín, I'm flattered.

456
00:40:09,250 --> 00:40:10,970
Just because of the abundance
of positions here,

457
00:40:11,041 --> 00:40:13,958
I don't doubt your ability
to create a program

458
00:40:14,041 --> 00:40:16,708
that involves as many as possible
of people.

459
00:40:18,125 --> 00:40:19,125
Yes.

460
00:40:19,708 --> 00:40:22,291
Great.

461
00:40:23,208 --> 00:40:26,458
Nobody's playing yet,
but we can already feel the difference.

462
00:40:27,750 --> 00:40:29,184
Anyway, I would like to inform you

463
00:40:29,208 --> 00:40:31,958
I'm going to solve this
with Commander Schmitt

464
00:40:32,583 --> 00:40:35,250
so we can take you away from the hard work.

465
00:40:35,333 --> 00:40:37,916
I will try to do the same, little by little,

466
00:40:37,958 --> 00:40:40,291
with everyone involved in the project.

467
00:40:40,375 --> 00:40:43,125
- I can suggest something now.
- For sure.

468
00:40:43,625 --> 00:40:47,250
Maybe we could start
with “The Bartered Bride”

469
00:40:47,375 --> 00:40:49,500
from our own Smetana, or...

470
00:40:49,666 --> 00:40:52,083
Tosca” by Puccini or “Carmen” by Bizet.

471
00:40:52,166 --> 00:40:53,916
If we eliminate the acting parts,

472
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,500
we could perform one of these pieces
easily.

473
00:40:57,416 --> 00:41:01,208
Of course, the only problem would be the choir.

474
00:41:01,291 --> 00:41:03,958
Excellent suggestions, Maestro,

475
00:41:04,250 --> 00:41:07,791
but if you don't mind me saying,
we would also like to present

476
00:41:09,708 --> 00:41:11,416
your "Brundibar".

477
00:41:14,958 --> 00:41:16,333
I have my sources.

478
00:41:16,916 --> 00:41:18,208
I would be delighted!

479
00:41:21,416 --> 00:41:22,833
I'm going to die!

480
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:28,416
I just don't know if it will be from hunger
or that disgusting food.

481
00:41:28,791 --> 00:41:31,791
The food is the smallest
of our concerns.

482
00:41:32,250 --> 00:41:36,250
Karel told me
who are preparing new lists.

483
00:41:36,958 --> 00:41:38,041
The lists!

484
00:41:38,250 --> 00:41:42,166
The only list I like
It's Don Giovanni's: Women!

485
00:41:42,666 --> 00:41:45,291
Even so,
who would be prepared for that?

486
00:41:45,375 --> 00:41:47,250
They are all tired and hungry like me.

487
00:41:47,375 --> 00:41:49,666
Who makes the lists? The Germans?

488
00:41:49,750 --> 00:41:52,000
What nothing. They are very cunning,

489
00:41:52,250 --> 00:41:53,875
gave this work to the Council.

490
00:41:53,958 --> 00:41:56,833
And if the Council finds
that you are important, Voilà,

491
00:41:57,083 --> 00:41:58,500
you are not on the list.

492
00:41:59,125 --> 00:42:01,875
You work for the Council,
how important are you?

493
00:42:01,958 --> 00:42:03,166
Extremely!

494
00:42:03,291 --> 00:42:06,583
I'm a famous painter,
king of the graphic office.

495
00:42:06,791 --> 00:42:11,708
I create posters and billboards for events
that illuminate the “Terezín Hot Springs”.

496
00:42:12,500 --> 00:42:13,791
I'm untouchable.

497
00:42:14,291 --> 00:42:17,375
Everyone wants to stay in Terezín.

498
00:42:18,166 --> 00:42:21,458
The model ghetto of scientists,
philosophers and artists.

499
00:42:21,541 --> 00:42:24,416
Nobody wants to stay here, idiot!

500
00:42:25,041 --> 00:42:28,416
Everyone just wants to avoid being sent
to die.

501
00:42:29,541 --> 00:42:33,416
And absolutely,
no one is truly untouchable.

502
00:42:34,708 --> 00:42:37,041
Just those dirty Germans.

503
00:42:38,875 --> 00:42:42,500
Did you know that the walls of Terezín were
designed by Italian engineers?

504
00:42:42,583 --> 00:42:44,708
That's why you want to stay here, isn't it?

505
00:42:45,083 --> 00:42:46,416
You feel a bit at home.

506
00:42:48,500 --> 00:42:50,791
Peter, aren't you scared?

507
00:42:50,875 --> 00:42:51,875
I?

508
00:42:53,458 --> 00:42:55,083
Of course I am.

509
00:42:55,291 --> 00:42:56,625
But do you think death

510
00:42:56,708 --> 00:42:59,291
will change your mind if you realize
Are you worried about this?

511
00:43:00,166 --> 00:43:01,166
No.

512
00:43:01,458 --> 00:43:03,750
So smile and have a good laugh.

513
00:43:04,375 --> 00:43:07,291
Your time will come sooner or later,
regardless of everything.

514
00:43:08,583 --> 00:43:12,416
Your time will come
and you won't even notice.

515
00:43:20,458 --> 00:43:22,208
This is disgusting.

516
00:43:27,708 --> 00:43:28,833
Welcome!

517
00:43:29,708 --> 00:43:31,041
Everyone is welcome!

518
00:43:32,666 --> 00:43:34,291
Sit down, please.

519
00:43:36,375 --> 00:43:39,208
Before we begin,
allow me a few words.

520
00:43:40,083 --> 00:43:42,625
Playing music is a concession
very important.

521
00:43:42,875 --> 00:43:46,291
And to stay that way,
we depend on each other’s behavior.

522
00:43:47,083 --> 00:43:49,250
The Commander was categorical.

523
00:43:49,625 --> 00:43:51,541
At the slightest problem,

524
00:43:51,666 --> 00:43:55,166
any artistic initiative
will be abolished.

525
00:43:55,791 --> 00:43:59,166
They must follow the rules, all of them.

526
00:43:59,708 --> 00:44:02,250
Follow them and make sure
that they are being followed.

527
00:44:02,833 --> 00:44:05,708
Because any violation

528
00:44:05,791 --> 00:44:09,208
it will cost us a suspension
of all activity,

529
00:44:09,583 --> 00:44:12,875
for at least six weeks.

530
00:44:13,083 --> 00:44:15,250
So, my friends,

531
00:44:15,750 --> 00:44:19,416
let's try not to lose this privilege,
are you ok?

532
00:44:21,708 --> 00:44:24,125
One other thing before we start.

533
00:44:30,125 --> 00:44:31,333
Here it is,

534
00:44:32,208 --> 00:44:34,291
our Italian clarinetist.

535
00:44:39,541 --> 00:44:41,208
Ladies and gentlemen,

536
00:44:42,458 --> 00:44:45,708
I believe we should celebrate
this moment.

537
00:44:45,791 --> 00:44:49,666
I found some parts
from a play by Shostakovich.

538
00:44:50,458 --> 00:44:51,833
Do I need to say anything more?

539
00:44:52,708 --> 00:44:53,750
Let's get started.

540
00:47:30,958 --> 00:47:32,125
Frau Brandeis.

541
00:47:35,125 --> 00:47:36,583
This is Walter Eisinger.

542
00:47:37,791 --> 00:47:39,875
He takes care of the children
from the other block.

543
00:47:40,625 --> 00:47:44,416
Now that Herr Schmitt
gave us some freedoms,

544
00:47:45,291 --> 00:47:47,708
Maybe it would be helpful for the two of you to talk.

545
00:47:48,291 --> 00:47:49,708
Nice to meet you.

546
00:47:50,833 --> 00:47:52,291
Also.

547
00:47:53,083 --> 00:47:54,750
How peaceful it is here.

548
00:47:55,416 --> 00:47:57,041
I wish I could say the same.

549
00:47:59,041 --> 00:48:00,666
You know, it's not always like that.

550
00:48:00,958 --> 00:48:04,666
There are days when they scream and fight,

551
00:48:05,458 --> 00:48:08,041
but I think it's natural at their age,

552
00:48:09,208 --> 00:48:13,416
despite not having anything natural
nothing here.

553
00:48:14,875 --> 00:48:17,166
You know, in the last few weeks,

554
00:48:17,250 --> 00:48:20,291
we got it
organize a kind of school.

555
00:48:22,416 --> 00:48:25,916
Some of the teachers
and writers from Terezín

556
00:48:26,458 --> 00:48:29,250
offered to teach some classes.

557
00:48:30,083 --> 00:48:31,666
Now we can.

558
00:48:31,750 --> 00:48:33,583
Yes, it's good for children,

559
00:48:33,666 --> 00:48:37,000
but for adults too.

560
00:48:37,125 --> 00:48:38,166
Yes.

561
00:48:38,583 --> 00:48:40,416
Let me show you something.

562
00:48:50,916 --> 00:48:51,916
Look.

563
00:48:54,500 --> 00:48:56,750
They're good, aren't they?

564
00:48:57,166 --> 00:48:58,750
They tell us so much.

565
00:49:01,458 --> 00:49:05,458
Children draw fear on paper

566
00:49:06,708 --> 00:49:09,083
and process it without filters.

567
00:49:11,541 --> 00:49:12,708
In your own way.

568
00:49:12,916 --> 00:49:16,125
You're doing a fantastic job here.

569
00:49:17,333 --> 00:49:19,500
I work with the children in room one.

570
00:49:19,583 --> 00:49:24,375
They are a little older,
as soon as they can, they fight and play football.

571
00:49:24,458 --> 00:49:29,250
In fact, we play football and fight.

572
00:49:29,500 --> 00:49:30,541
Anyway,

573
00:49:31,708 --> 00:49:34,666
I want to involve them in something important.

574
00:49:35,666 --> 00:49:38,166
We can't lose any of this.

575
00:52:13,875 --> 00:52:15,625
Come on, heads up.

576
00:52:16,833 --> 00:52:20,208
You will see that with time
our orchestra will grow.

577
00:52:22,791 --> 00:52:24,000
Meanwhile,

578
00:52:24,958 --> 00:52:27,333
with our music,
We will pray, in our own way,

579
00:52:27,416 --> 00:52:29,708
for those who are no longer with us.

580
00:52:33,875 --> 00:52:34,916
Are you ready?

581
00:52:36,750 --> 00:52:39,041
Let's start from number five.

582
00:52:57,125 --> 00:52:59,083
- I liked!
- Silence.

583
00:52:59,875 --> 00:53:01,125
You will wake them all up.

584
00:53:15,375 --> 00:53:18,208
It looks a little cheerful
tonight, my friend.

585
00:53:18,916 --> 00:53:22,250
Is it because we play well or is there something more?

586
00:53:23,166 --> 00:53:24,916
I spoke to Martina.

587
00:53:26,041 --> 00:53:27,750
She is taking care of the children.

588
00:53:27,875 --> 00:53:31,708
He says it's important work,
and it's not doing badly.

589
00:53:35,875 --> 00:53:37,500
Children, Hans.

590
00:53:40,416 --> 00:53:41,625
"Brundibar".

591
00:53:43,166 --> 00:53:47,458
Martina says they draw very well
and some sing.

592
00:53:47,541 --> 00:53:48,916
- Serious?
- Yes.

593
00:53:49,625 --> 00:53:52,375
She mentioned a Dane,
from another group,

594
00:53:52,458 --> 00:53:53,791
he plays the trombone.

595
00:53:55,250 --> 00:53:57,791
She would like to talk
with Schachter for the orchestra.

596
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:02,791
Children.

597
00:54:03,458 --> 00:54:05,208
That's a good idea.

598
00:54:06,500 --> 00:54:09,000
But tomorrow you have to help me
with something else.

599
00:54:09,416 --> 00:54:11,791
We have to find Frantisek Zelenka.

600
00:54:12,958 --> 00:54:13,958
Who is he?

601
00:54:14,583 --> 00:54:16,000
My dear Italian,

602
00:54:16,750 --> 00:54:20,208
he is the designer of the National Theater.

603
00:54:21,458 --> 00:54:23,208
I know he is also here in Terezín.

604
00:54:23,958 --> 00:54:25,541
Now we need it too.

605
00:54:33,666 --> 00:54:35,750
Of course, we'll find him.

606
00:54:38,583 --> 00:54:41,958
We always have to prepare new spaces,
Dear Belstein.

607
00:54:42,083 --> 00:54:45,250
But I'm not the one making history.

608
00:54:45,625 --> 00:54:49,708
If Berlin sends the orders,
I have to obey.

609
00:54:50,875 --> 00:54:52,291
Do you understand what I'm saying?

610
00:54:52,875 --> 00:54:53,916
More or less.

611
00:54:55,750 --> 00:55:02,208
It means we both must
accept the inflexible order of things.

612
00:55:02,416 --> 00:55:06,166
Our excuses for not executing them
don't mean anything,

613
00:55:06,250 --> 00:55:08,666
no matter how irrational they may seem.

614
00:55:18,041 --> 00:55:20,625
Allow yourself some fun, Belstein.

615
00:55:21,083 --> 00:55:22,208
As I was saying,

616
00:55:23,166 --> 00:55:24,791
if the Führer orders,

617
00:55:26,083 --> 00:55:27,583
you and I obey.

618
00:55:35,541 --> 00:55:36,583
Therefore,

619
00:55:38,041 --> 00:55:42,000
the Council must prepare
a new list of deportations.

620
00:55:42,375 --> 00:55:43,375
Fast.

621
00:55:43,791 --> 00:55:45,500
Am I being clear?

622
00:55:47,375 --> 00:55:48,375
Excellent.

623
00:55:49,125 --> 00:55:53,291
And how are the recreational activities?

624
00:55:53,375 --> 00:55:54,375
Tell me.

625
00:55:54,541 --> 00:55:56,083
Are your people satisfied?

626
00:55:58,041 --> 00:56:00,208
Everyone appreciates your generosity.

627
00:56:00,541 --> 00:56:02,083
Not mine,

628
00:56:02,458 --> 00:56:03,958
always that of the Führer!

629
00:56:04,458 --> 00:56:05,708
Of course, sir.

630
00:56:07,083 --> 00:56:11,166
It's amazing how Hitler so generously
gave you a city.

631
00:56:11,250 --> 00:56:14,041
And how the Reich helps them manage it.

632
00:56:15,583 --> 00:56:17,750
Don't you agree, Belstein?

633
00:56:23,625 --> 00:56:26,583
Now, it's not sure
and it might not happen,

634
00:56:26,666 --> 00:56:29,416
so keep this information to yourself.

635
00:56:30,458 --> 00:56:32,583
There is a remote possibility

636
00:56:32,666 --> 00:56:36,458
to receive a visit
of the International Red Cross

637
00:56:36,916 --> 00:56:38,875
and the heads of the SS.

638
00:56:39,958 --> 00:56:42,750
I repeat, it is not certain,

639
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,250
but not to be

640
00:56:45,625 --> 00:56:47,291
caught by surprise,

641
00:56:48,791 --> 00:56:52,583
I advise you to intensify your activities

642
00:56:52,666 --> 00:56:56,708
for occasional shows
to entertain our guests.

643
00:56:57,625 --> 00:57:00,458
Temporary dismissal is permitted

644
00:57:01,166 --> 00:57:06,833
the artists involved in this show
of their works.

645
00:57:06,916 --> 00:57:07,958
And also,

646
00:57:09,166 --> 00:57:12,625
more people can participate in rehearsals

647
00:57:12,875 --> 00:57:15,125
so that your professionals get used to

648
00:57:16,291 --> 00:57:17,541
with the audience.

649
00:57:17,625 --> 00:57:18,833
Thank you, sir.

650
00:57:20,541 --> 00:57:22,333
You're right to be grateful,

651
00:57:23,583 --> 00:57:25,208
it should always be.

652
00:57:54,916 --> 00:57:55,958
You did it!

653
00:57:56,083 --> 00:57:57,666
You'll see, it's worth it.

654
00:57:58,583 --> 00:58:00,625
My boys have been doing this for a while now.

655
00:58:00,708 --> 00:58:02,625
Just one copy, once a week.

656
00:58:02,708 --> 00:58:04,875
We read together every Friday
at night.

657
00:58:04,958 --> 00:58:06,916
It's practically like a sacred event.

658
00:58:07,083 --> 00:58:09,166
Then we pass
to the other bedrooms.

659
00:58:12,500 --> 00:58:14,708
"See." Who chose the title?

660
00:58:14,791 --> 00:58:17,208
Petr Ginz does all the editing.

661
00:58:17,291 --> 00:58:19,458
He chooses the designs,
the poems, the stories.

662
00:58:19,583 --> 00:58:23,083
But everyone contributes
and everyone is proud of it.

663
00:58:23,166 --> 00:58:24,875
You can see it in their eyes.

664
00:58:24,958 --> 00:58:28,291
They feel alive, knowing
that they are doing something important.

665
00:58:28,375 --> 00:58:30,708
How wonderful, I'm speechless!

666
00:58:30,958 --> 00:58:33,583
Hide it now
and show it to Friedl Brandeis.

667
00:58:33,666 --> 00:58:36,458
I would like to include some drawings
of its younger artists.

668
00:58:37,083 --> 00:58:38,500
I already spoke to Petr.

669
00:58:40,208 --> 00:58:42,416
Now, go, be careful!

670
00:58:58,875 --> 00:58:59,875
High!

671
00:59:02,208 --> 00:59:03,208
Who is it?

672
00:59:04,250 --> 00:59:08,041
Solomon. Transport number B-J-2.

673
00:59:09,208 --> 00:59:10,958
The Italian Jew.

674
00:59:12,416 --> 00:59:14,541
Where are you going in such a hurry?

675
00:59:14,708 --> 00:59:17,291
- Rehearsals, My Commander.
- Tests.

676
00:59:18,583 --> 00:59:19,583
Tests.

677
00:59:20,166 --> 00:59:22,541
What's inside the suitcase? A weapon?

678
00:59:22,958 --> 00:59:25,333
A clarinet, My Commander.

679
00:59:30,666 --> 00:59:31,666
Good.

680
00:59:32,958 --> 00:59:33,958
How good.

681
00:59:37,375 --> 00:59:39,041
Open and tap.

682
00:59:54,458 --> 00:59:56,833
Play something German.

683
00:59:58,708 --> 01:00:02,166
Something very German.

684
01:00:04,166 --> 01:00:06,208
But if you don't play well...

685
01:00:21,166 --> 01:00:23,708
Johannes Brahms,
Born in Hamburg, like me.

686
01:00:23,791 --> 01:00:26,958
Sonata for clarinet and piano,

687
01:00:27,375 --> 01:00:29,708
opus 120, number one.

688
01:00:30,250 --> 01:00:32,500
Yes, Brahms loved Italy.

689
01:00:32,583 --> 01:00:36,666
- He came eight times and...
- Continue, don't talk.

690
01:00:37,541 --> 01:00:38,833
Touch.

691
01:01:36,375 --> 01:01:40,666
As promised,
I was able to increase our number of musicians,

692
01:01:40,833 --> 01:01:43,000
including Egon Ledec,

693
01:01:43,291 --> 01:01:46,625
second violinist
of the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

694
01:01:47,583 --> 01:01:51,291
And Paul Rabinowitsz,
a young Danish musician.

695
01:01:56,250 --> 01:01:58,000
Great, let's get started.

696
01:01:58,083 --> 01:02:01,333
As you know, the composer of the piece
that we will execute

697
01:02:01,458 --> 01:02:03,458
is here with us.

698
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,916
So don't make me feel ashamed.

699
01:02:07,458 --> 01:02:08,791
Maestro Ullmann,

700
01:02:09,958 --> 01:02:13,958
I'm sorry,
but in this part you will be a spectator.

701
01:04:04,916 --> 01:04:08,083
Maestro, didn't you like how we played?

702
01:04:08,166 --> 01:04:09,208
No.

703
01:04:10,375 --> 01:04:12,708
Music has nothing to do with it.

704
01:04:14,250 --> 01:04:17,000
I hate all this hypocrisy.

705
01:04:17,375 --> 01:04:18,625
This is all a hoax.

706
01:04:19,791 --> 01:04:22,708
The music, the shows, the presentations.

707
01:04:24,208 --> 01:04:27,041
It's all part of Terezín's farce.

708
01:04:29,500 --> 01:04:34,750
They want it to look like a model place
where we all live a normal life.

709
01:04:37,041 --> 01:04:38,666
But it's all a sham.

710
01:04:39,166 --> 01:04:40,250
And we are...

711
01:04:42,083 --> 01:04:45,125
we are just pieces on a board.

712
01:04:46,083 --> 01:04:47,333
You know it's true.

713
01:04:49,791 --> 01:04:50,791
Maestro,

714
01:04:52,041 --> 01:04:55,458
all I know is that the music
It's the most important thing we have.

715
01:04:56,666 --> 01:05:00,041
And I also know it's keeping us alive.

716
01:05:00,458 --> 01:05:02,458
Those who play and those who listen.

717
01:05:04,250 --> 01:05:05,708
They think they are using us,

718
01:05:06,291 --> 01:05:11,583
but they don't know they gave us something
that strengthens us.

719
01:05:16,166 --> 01:05:17,583
I know, Antonio.

720
01:05:17,958 --> 01:05:18,958
I know.

721
01:05:21,416 --> 01:05:25,291
I wish you would tell the musicians
that sooner or later

722
01:05:25,458 --> 01:05:27,791
I want to do Verdi's Requiem.

723
01:05:31,708 --> 01:05:33,166
Verdi's Requiem?

724
01:05:37,875 --> 01:05:40,041
I'm here because of Frau Brandeis.

725
01:05:40,166 --> 01:05:42,375
I'm sorry, I don't know where she is.

726
01:05:43,291 --> 01:05:44,708
That's why I'm here.

727
01:05:46,125 --> 01:05:47,791
She was transferred to the East.

728
01:05:50,291 --> 01:05:53,166
It was her request
as soon as her husband was deported.

729
01:05:53,666 --> 01:05:55,041
She wanted to be with him.

730
01:05:58,166 --> 01:06:00,416
She only stayed here for them.

731
01:06:01,250 --> 01:06:03,290
I was waiting for someone
who I could trust.

732
01:06:04,583 --> 01:06:06,208
And that someone came.

733
01:06:07,125 --> 01:06:10,125
Now, you are in charge of the children.

734
01:06:20,291 --> 01:06:21,500
Come.

735
01:06:22,375 --> 01:06:23,375
Come here.

736
01:07:00,458 --> 01:07:02,708
And how is the poster for "Brundibar"?

737
01:07:02,791 --> 01:07:04,541
I have a lot of ideas.

738
01:07:04,625 --> 01:07:06,958
Hans showed me some drawings
of children

739
01:07:07,041 --> 01:07:09,291
and they stimulated my imagination.

740
01:07:09,375 --> 01:07:11,666
These kids encouraged everyone.

741
01:07:11,750 --> 01:07:13,791
Wait until you see Zelenka perform.

742
01:07:13,875 --> 01:07:15,625
They are true little artists.

743
01:07:15,708 --> 01:07:17,791
I'm sure
that it will be a great performance.

744
01:07:17,875 --> 01:07:19,833
- We must also prepare...
- Belstein!

745
01:07:21,458 --> 01:07:23,083
I was looking for you.

746
01:07:23,666 --> 01:07:26,666
Herr Schmitt is still waiting
for your new lists.

747
01:07:26,958 --> 01:07:29,125
Of course, My Commander,
they are almost ready.

748
01:07:29,208 --> 01:07:30,750
He wants them immediately.

749
01:07:31,166 --> 01:07:34,083
Focus on that instead
to walk around.

750
01:07:39,250 --> 01:07:41,541
Jakob, will there be new transfers?

751
01:07:41,625 --> 01:07:45,375
Yes, you heard it, but I always try to put it off.

752
01:07:46,375 --> 01:07:48,666
The truth is that lists
are not ready yet.

753
01:07:48,750 --> 01:07:50,416
Think about your show, Hans.

754
01:08:10,958 --> 01:08:15,208
We win victory over tyrants

755
01:08:16,083 --> 01:08:20,583
Sound the trumpets, beat the drums
And show us your vigor!

756
01:08:21,416 --> 01:08:26,208
We won the victory,
Once we were not afraid,

757
01:08:26,708 --> 01:08:29,250
Once we were not afraid!

758
01:08:30,083 --> 01:08:32,083
Because we keep marching,

759
01:08:32,166 --> 01:08:36,625
Singing our merry song,
With joy and shine!

760
01:08:39,541 --> 01:08:41,583
My dear little friends.

761
01:08:42,166 --> 01:08:44,041
Our Opera ends now.

762
01:08:44,583 --> 01:08:46,125
It's getting very late.

763
01:08:46,291 --> 01:08:48,208
- They should go home.
- But wait.

764
01:08:48,375 --> 01:08:49,958
Don't say good night yet.

765
01:08:50,166 --> 01:08:53,708
Let's send them away
When we sing our song.

766
01:08:53,958 --> 01:08:55,541
"What's up with you today?"

767
01:08:57,083 --> 01:09:01,208
We win victory over tyrants

768
01:09:01,958 --> 01:09:06,208
Sound the trumpets, beat the drums
And show us your vigor!

769
01:09:07,083 --> 01:09:11,583
We won the victory,
Once we were not afraid,

770
01:09:12,166 --> 01:09:14,708
Once we were not afraid!

771
01:09:15,375 --> 01:09:17,375
Because we keep marching,

772
01:09:17,458 --> 01:09:21,791
Singing our merry song,
With joy and shine!

773
01:09:23,291 --> 01:09:28,750
He who loves his father, mother and native land

774
01:09:29,458 --> 01:09:33,250
Who wants to end up like a tyrant

775
01:09:33,583 --> 01:09:37,083
Join us

776
01:09:37,166 --> 01:09:43,833
And welcome as our friends!

777
01:10:25,583 --> 01:10:28,416
So Schonberg and Zemlinsky,
naturally.

778
01:10:28,541 --> 01:10:29,708
I love them.

779
01:10:30,166 --> 01:10:31,791
Alban Berg too.

780
01:10:31,875 --> 01:10:34,875
Your use of the system
of twelve tones is pure genius.

781
01:10:34,958 --> 01:10:37,583
I would love to play Schubert,

782
01:10:37,958 --> 01:10:38,958
Brahms.

783
01:10:39,583 --> 01:10:43,125
Forbidding us to play the works
of some German composers?

784
01:10:43,416 --> 01:10:44,496
It's truly stupid.

785
01:10:44,541 --> 01:10:46,750
"You stain our roots",

786
01:10:46,875 --> 01:10:49,250
they said when I played Brahms
in Prague.

787
01:10:49,750 --> 01:10:50,833
Sirs.

788
01:10:52,541 --> 01:10:55,125
Gentlemen, it is confirmed,

789
01:10:55,750 --> 01:10:58,625
the International Red Cross
come visit us.

790
01:10:58,791 --> 01:11:01,583
Given the importance of the visit,
the Commander asked us

791
01:11:01,666 --> 01:11:05,791
that we prepare something prestigious
and appropriate to the circumstances.

792
01:11:05,958 --> 01:11:08,375
And nothing else?

793
01:11:11,166 --> 01:11:14,583
Even a real stage will be set up
in the square for the occasion.

794
01:11:14,666 --> 01:11:16,875
To prepare you all properly,

795
01:11:16,958 --> 01:11:20,083
all artists involved
will be removed from their jobs.

796
01:11:20,166 --> 01:11:22,916
And when will this visit be?

797
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:25,250
They didn't tell me the exact date,

798
01:11:25,333 --> 01:11:27,208
But I know it will be in a few months.

799
01:11:27,875 --> 01:11:30,416
That's all,
I don't want to waste your time.

800
01:11:31,166 --> 01:11:32,791
-Belstein.
- Yes?

801
01:11:34,708 --> 01:11:36,125
Who comes first,

802
01:11:37,125 --> 01:11:39,291
the Red Cross train

803
01:11:39,791 --> 01:11:41,291
or ours going East?

804
01:11:58,833 --> 01:11:59,833
Then?

805
01:12:01,666 --> 01:12:06,375
Any suggestions on which part
prepare for this visit?

806
01:12:08,375 --> 01:12:09,416
No?

807
01:12:11,750 --> 01:12:13,583
I had an idea.

808
01:12:42,583 --> 01:12:45,583
I received the list of women
to be deported.

809
01:12:47,958 --> 01:12:49,125
Your name is on it.

810
01:12:52,041 --> 01:12:54,375
Listen, maybe there's a way.

811
01:12:55,458 --> 01:12:58,500
There is a category
of indispensable prisoners.

812
01:12:59,041 --> 01:13:02,083
If I could change your position
and put you among them...

813
01:13:02,166 --> 01:13:04,000
Why would you do that?

814
01:13:05,875 --> 01:13:06,916
The children.

815
01:13:07,875 --> 01:13:11,708
I mean, I don't want to lose another tutor
in such a short time.

816
01:13:14,166 --> 01:13:15,208
I think...

817
01:13:16,250 --> 01:13:17,333
I think...

818
01:13:23,375 --> 01:13:24,708
I need to do something.

819
01:13:26,333 --> 01:13:27,416
I need.

820
01:15:04,750 --> 01:15:08,125
The Commander promised
that would arrive sooner or later.

821
01:15:10,250 --> 01:15:12,083
Belstein, may I?

822
01:15:12,166 --> 01:15:13,291
Of course.

823
01:15:17,208 --> 01:15:19,250
- Wonderful, isn't it?
- And even.

824
01:15:21,666 --> 01:15:22,875
Wait a second.

825
01:15:25,750 --> 01:15:26,791
It's a Zalud.

826
01:15:29,250 --> 01:15:31,625
Pavel Zalud, from Terezín.

827
01:15:31,708 --> 01:15:33,541
- Is it from here?
- Yes.

828
01:15:34,083 --> 01:15:35,583
It was a small family factory.

829
01:15:35,666 --> 01:15:38,958
They made musical instruments
until recently.

830
01:15:39,875 --> 01:15:42,250
What a melancholy return.

831
01:15:42,750 --> 01:15:45,416
Let's wait
May we also go home.

832
01:15:48,958 --> 01:15:49,958
Yes.

833
01:15:50,375 --> 01:15:52,750
Yes, Herr Eichmann, it will be done.

834
01:15:58,958 --> 01:16:00,166
This is not acceptable.

835
01:16:00,250 --> 01:16:04,958
There is not a single writer, painter, musician
or a journalist on these lists!

836
01:16:05,083 --> 01:16:06,458
They are all wrong!

837
01:16:07,625 --> 01:16:10,291
- But I followed your orders, sir!
- Silence!

838
01:16:12,541 --> 01:16:14,208
The Führer is right when he says

839
01:16:14,291 --> 01:16:15,833
that no one can blame us

840
01:16:15,916 --> 01:16:18,333
for sending you
to the marshes of Eastern Europe.

841
01:16:18,750 --> 01:16:23,833
This Jewish solidarity obstructs
true European solidarity.

842
01:16:25,291 --> 01:16:27,750
Hitler himself said this
on New Year's Eve.

843
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:33,083
You can't just deport workers
rather than his artist friends.

844
01:16:33,166 --> 01:16:36,583
The ghetto has to be tidied up,
beautified, reorganized.

845
01:16:36,666 --> 01:16:37,916
Did you understand?

846
01:16:40,458 --> 01:16:44,416
Or would you rather do it yourself,
Mr. Belstein?

847
01:16:46,083 --> 01:16:51,791
As an immediate consequence of your error,

848
01:16:52,583 --> 01:16:54,250
some musicians

849
01:17:05,083 --> 01:17:07,958
will be called back
for heavy work.

850
01:17:08,291 --> 01:17:09,458
Now, leave.

851
01:17:20,875 --> 01:17:23,291
It's been a long time
that I don't see real beds.

852
01:17:24,666 --> 01:17:27,375
The miracle of the Red Cross.

853
01:17:34,583 --> 01:17:35,625
Antonio?

854
01:17:36,041 --> 01:17:37,791
Someone wants to talk to you.

855
01:17:46,791 --> 01:17:48,791
I have a message from Martina.

856
01:17:49,333 --> 01:17:51,833
- She is fine?
- I think so.

857
01:17:54,083 --> 01:17:57,208
She will wait for you
in the music room tonight.

858
01:17:57,583 --> 01:17:59,750
- Tonight?
- Yes, that's right.

859
01:18:30,291 --> 01:18:31,291
Finally.

860
01:18:32,541 --> 01:18:35,916
It's torture to see you at rehearsals
without hugging you all the time.

861
01:18:37,166 --> 01:18:38,833
Hug me now.

862
01:18:40,375 --> 01:18:41,541
Stronger, please.

863
01:18:43,250 --> 01:18:45,583
Tighter, don't let me go.

864
01:18:45,666 --> 01:18:47,041
I won't let you go, my love.

865
01:18:47,666 --> 01:18:48,708
I won't let you go.

866
01:18:58,291 --> 01:19:01,708
Everything would be easier to bear
if we could be together.

867
01:19:02,208 --> 01:19:03,291
Antonio.

868
01:19:52,375 --> 01:19:54,833
As many of you already know,

869
01:19:54,916 --> 01:19:58,916
I intend to perform Verdi's Requiem.

870
01:20:01,375 --> 01:20:03,333
I understand your disappointment,

871
01:20:03,708 --> 01:20:06,041
That's what I would feel too

872
01:20:06,375 --> 01:20:09,583
if I limited myself to a vision of myself

873
01:20:09,666 --> 01:20:13,791
like a poor, imprisoned Jew.

874
01:20:14,750 --> 01:20:20,125
Humiliated and with their traditions
and roots taken.

875
01:20:20,750 --> 01:20:23,416
We could do Mendelssohn's Paulus.

876
01:20:23,708 --> 01:20:26,625
That, at least, is Jewish music.

877
01:20:26,708 --> 01:20:28,500
Yes, he is right.

878
01:20:28,583 --> 01:20:32,041
Mendelssohn also wrote Christus

879
01:20:32,166 --> 01:20:35,333
and rediscovered the Saint Matthew Passion
by Bach.

880
01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:39,916
Do we want to be like them?

881
01:20:41,250 --> 01:20:45,125
Do we really want to discuss the race of music?

882
01:20:49,250 --> 01:20:50,291
If I could,

883
01:20:50,375 --> 01:20:53,708
would play Bruckner's Symphony
in their face.

884
01:20:54,458 --> 01:20:56,583
Or Brahms' German Requiem.

885
01:20:56,666 --> 01:20:57,875
But, see,

886
01:20:58,541 --> 01:21:02,291
I demand more from myself and from you.

887
01:21:03,250 --> 01:21:06,375
I ask that you not be prisoners
of yourselves.

888
01:21:06,458 --> 01:21:08,458
And not even these walls.

889
01:21:11,166 --> 01:21:12,166
So,

890
01:21:14,291 --> 01:21:17,208
Let's play Verdi's Requiem!

891
01:21:17,958 --> 01:21:20,583
Free me, Dómine, from everlasting death,

892
01:21:20,791 --> 01:21:24,833
in die illa treménda! Free us!

893
01:21:31,750 --> 01:21:35,750
We must start by choosing the choir.

894
01:21:36,041 --> 01:21:38,083
So please spread the word.

895
01:21:38,166 --> 01:21:40,750
If they know someone
If you can sing, let me know,

896
01:21:40,833 --> 01:21:44,083
but most of all, get me a baritone.

897
01:21:44,916 --> 01:21:47,708
It seems there is none
throughout Terezín.

898
01:21:47,791 --> 01:21:51,583
I have more tenors
than I know what to do with them.

899
01:21:52,250 --> 01:21:56,166
I blame Jewish religious rituals,

900
01:21:56,500 --> 01:21:58,708
They are the only ones who sing.

901
01:21:59,291 --> 01:22:01,416
We need baritones.

902
01:22:01,750 --> 01:22:02,791
Maestro,

903
01:22:03,250 --> 01:22:07,708
basses and baritones are considered
the voices of infernal creatures.

904
01:22:08,083 --> 01:22:10,416
They will not even be allowed in temples.

905
01:22:11,666 --> 01:22:14,833
They will sing outside.
They will still be heard.

906
01:22:16,208 --> 01:22:17,208
Ready?

907
01:22:25,125 --> 01:22:27,791
This must be the 100th review
that I wrote.

908
01:22:28,375 --> 01:22:30,916
How many shows are there
in Terezín currently?

909
01:22:31,875 --> 01:22:35,541
Schmitt didn't like his absence very much
of musicians on the lists.

910
01:22:36,041 --> 01:22:37,125
Did you know that?

911
01:22:37,791 --> 01:22:41,416
So he had Belstein call some
back to hard work.

912
01:22:42,333 --> 01:22:44,333
Just by looking you can see
that he hates the Jews,

913
01:22:44,416 --> 01:22:48,708
but Jewish musicians even more so.

914
01:22:49,083 --> 01:22:50,843
He would put us
first on trains

915
01:22:52,041 --> 01:22:53,500
heading east.

916
01:22:54,708 --> 01:22:56,125
According to Belstein,

917
01:22:57,208 --> 01:22:59,583
it's just a matter of time.

918
01:23:00,333 --> 01:23:02,916
Well, according to Schachter,
nothing will happen.

919
01:23:03,416 --> 01:23:06,833
At least not for whoever presents
the Requiem for the Red Cross.

920
01:23:07,208 --> 01:23:11,791
They say that after,
Berlin will want to speed up deportations.

921
01:23:12,375 --> 01:23:13,375
I know.

922
01:23:13,458 --> 01:23:19,541
They intend to throw the ashes of the dead
from the ghetto on the Ohre River.

923
01:23:20,583 --> 01:23:22,916
And that can't be a good sign, can it?

924
01:23:23,750 --> 01:23:24,833
Show me.

925
01:23:29,958 --> 01:23:32,000
I know, I made you more beautiful.

926
01:23:32,500 --> 01:23:33,708
You should be grateful.

927
01:23:38,958 --> 01:23:40,541
With the arrival of the latest instruments,

928
01:23:40,625 --> 01:23:43,958
the orchestra is complete
and rehearsals are going well,

929
01:23:44,125 --> 01:23:46,083
as the Maestro can confirm.

930
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:50,208
Yes, I would say we are
at a good time and...

931
01:23:55,333 --> 01:23:56,333
Did you hear that?

932
01:23:57,500 --> 01:23:58,625
Continue.

933
01:23:58,958 --> 01:24:00,541
Just a second.

934
01:24:01,791 --> 01:24:03,875
- But where does it come from?
- Schachter.

935
01:24:07,166 --> 01:24:08,416
Is he drunk?

936
01:24:09,875 --> 01:24:11,625
- Close that window, Belstein!
- Of course.

937
01:24:15,666 --> 01:24:16,708
What a voice!

938
01:24:16,833 --> 01:24:19,166
It looks like it's coming from the center of the earth.

939
01:24:26,666 --> 01:24:27,708
Schachter!

940
01:24:28,458 --> 01:24:30,250
Sorry. Forgive him.

941
01:24:31,500 --> 01:24:32,791
He is a musician.

942
01:24:33,083 --> 01:24:34,208
Come back here!

943
01:25:16,958 --> 01:25:18,333
Chimney sweep!

944
01:25:20,583 --> 01:25:21,875
No, sir.

945
01:25:22,458 --> 01:25:24,041
Karel Berman!

946
01:25:24,166 --> 01:25:25,458
Singer!

947
01:25:26,875 --> 01:25:30,500
Jakob, we found our baritone.

948
01:26:46,541 --> 01:26:47,541
You!

949
01:26:47,666 --> 01:26:51,375
You assured me that none
of my musicians would be deported!

950
01:26:51,458 --> 01:26:52,541
None!

951
01:26:52,750 --> 01:26:56,625
Martina, Ana, Thomas,
everyone else, they are gone.

952
01:26:58,166 --> 01:26:59,875
What did you do, Jakob?

953
01:27:00,291 --> 01:27:02,666
- You assured me!
- Maestro, calm down, please.

954
01:27:02,750 --> 01:27:04,791
- No, it was him.
- It's not Belstein's fault.

955
01:27:04,875 --> 01:27:06,375
- It was him.
- It's nobody's fault!

956
01:27:06,541 --> 01:27:08,416
They were direct orders from command.

957
01:27:29,375 --> 01:27:32,375
Look at all these
worker ants.

958
01:27:32,666 --> 01:27:35,833
This is how Terezín should be
every day!

959
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:39,791
Do you know what Eichmann told me the other day?

960
01:27:40,583 --> 01:27:41,916
"It's stupid!

961
01:27:43,083 --> 01:27:45,458
Give the impression
that nothing is being done here,

962
01:27:45,583 --> 01:27:46,708
except play music.”

963
01:27:47,666 --> 01:27:49,000
Your exact words, Rudolf.

964
01:27:49,625 --> 01:27:50,625
The same ones.

965
01:27:52,208 --> 01:27:54,625
Eichmann always had the right opinion
about things.

966
01:27:55,958 --> 01:27:58,041
Let's make this place

967
01:27:58,125 --> 01:28:00,916
something Berlin would like
for visitors to see.

968
01:28:01,458 --> 01:28:04,583
- Yes sir!
- We have to isolate the most degraded areas

969
01:28:04,708 --> 01:28:06,208
when they arrive.

970
01:28:06,708 --> 01:28:10,625
And the sick, those in bad shape,
must disappear.

971
01:28:11,083 --> 01:28:12,083
Yes.

972
01:28:12,375 --> 01:28:16,666
I'll squeeze them all into the barracks
on the other side of the field.

973
01:28:17,083 --> 01:28:18,708
Nobody goes there.

974
01:28:19,333 --> 01:28:20,333
Excellent.

975
01:28:20,875 --> 01:28:23,291
And visitors must pass
by some buildings

976
01:28:24,208 --> 01:28:29,875
where we will pretend to be teaching
for children.

977
01:28:31,666 --> 01:28:33,958
The Red Cross takes children seriously,

978
01:28:35,166 --> 01:28:36,416
and the Reich too.

979
01:28:36,750 --> 01:28:38,416
As you wish, My Commander!

980
01:28:39,541 --> 01:28:41,416
One more thing,
we must stop crematoriums

981
01:28:41,500 --> 01:28:44,041
for at least three days.

982
01:28:44,666 --> 01:28:49,000
The air will be less smelly.

983
01:28:53,666 --> 01:28:54,666
Smell this.

984
01:29:02,041 --> 01:29:03,041
My wife.

985
01:29:07,583 --> 01:29:10,166
She prepares it for me every morning.

986
01:29:10,916 --> 01:29:13,750
Essence of I don't know what.

987
01:29:13,875 --> 01:29:15,000
Very strong.

988
01:29:16,291 --> 01:29:19,916
She thinks I can't stand the stench,
believe me I put it on my nose

989
01:29:20,458 --> 01:29:21,791
to relieve me.

990
01:29:23,583 --> 01:29:25,541
But in fact,

991
01:29:26,458 --> 01:29:27,791
I love this smell.

992
01:29:28,958 --> 01:29:30,958
And do you know why, Rudolf?

993
01:29:32,833 --> 01:29:35,125
Because it means I'm doing good
my work.

994
01:29:41,166 --> 01:29:42,375
One more thing.

995
01:29:43,166 --> 01:29:46,708
If someone asks how many
were recently deported,

996
01:29:46,958 --> 01:29:49,916
it was eight thousand and not 18. Is that clear?

997
01:29:50,041 --> 01:29:51,166
Yes, My Commander!

998
01:30:10,625 --> 01:30:12,458
What's bothering you, Hans?

999
01:30:14,750 --> 01:30:18,333
Did you hear the news
from SS headquarters lately?

1000
01:30:18,958 --> 01:30:19,958
About what?

1001
01:30:20,958 --> 01:30:23,583
That things are going badly for the Reich.

1002
01:30:23,666 --> 01:30:28,500
The Germans are scared
of enemy bombings, even in Terezín.

1003
01:30:29,375 --> 01:30:31,083
Of course I heard!

1004
01:30:31,250 --> 01:30:34,041
The best news I received
since I got here.

1005
01:30:34,291 --> 01:30:35,291
Do you think?

1006
01:30:36,750 --> 01:30:38,333
This worries me a lot.

1007
01:30:40,541 --> 01:30:42,208
Don't you think this is good news?

1008
01:30:42,416 --> 01:30:45,333
Of course, but only if it's true.

1009
01:30:47,625 --> 01:30:49,708
The Germans wouldn't joke about that.

1010
01:30:51,041 --> 01:30:52,125
It must be true.

1011
01:30:55,333 --> 01:30:56,666
That would be ironic.

1012
01:30:57,208 --> 01:31:01,833
Survive years in the ghetto
and die from Allied bombs.

1013
01:31:06,333 --> 01:31:07,416
Hello, Antonio.

1014
01:31:09,875 --> 01:31:11,208
I have something for you.

1015
01:31:16,458 --> 01:31:17,708
When did she give you this?

1016
01:31:19,875 --> 01:31:21,166
It doesn't matter.

1017
01:31:26,458 --> 01:31:27,458
Goodbye.

1018
01:31:35,291 --> 01:31:36,708
It's best to leave him alone.

1019
01:31:38,541 --> 01:31:39,750
He needs time.

1020
01:32:00,375 --> 01:32:02,416
Why did you try to change the list?

1021
01:32:08,958 --> 01:32:10,916
What does Martina Resekova mean
for you?

1022
01:32:12,958 --> 01:32:14,458
Did you do it for money?

1023
01:32:19,250 --> 01:32:20,541
Answer me!

1024
01:32:24,583 --> 01:32:26,166
You wouldn't understand.

1025
01:32:34,208 --> 01:32:39,416
"And one day, in the ruins of the ghetto,
We're going to laugh."

1026
01:33:13,250 --> 01:33:14,500
My friends,

1027
01:33:15,958 --> 01:33:20,208
Tomorrow, we will sing for the Nazis
what we can't tell them.

1028
01:33:25,208 --> 01:33:30,250
DRESS REHEARSAL - JUNE 22, 1944

1029
01:35:03,416 --> 01:35:06,958
CONCERT DAY FOR THE RED CROSS
JUNE 23, 1944

1030
01:35:12,375 --> 01:35:13,916
Transport number?

1031
01:35:14,166 --> 01:35:16,625
When they ask,
you have to say you're fine,

1032
01:35:16,750 --> 01:35:19,041
healthy and seven years younger.

1033
01:35:19,250 --> 01:35:20,541
B-J-2.

1034
01:35:48,250 --> 01:35:50,333
They're not going to a good place.

1035
01:35:54,583 --> 01:35:55,583
Come on!

1036
01:36:05,583 --> 01:36:10,208
DOCTOR

1037
01:36:45,541 --> 01:36:47,083
You are here to work.

1038
01:36:49,291 --> 01:36:52,041
This station must be
operating quickly.

1039
01:36:54,958 --> 01:36:56,000
Is it clear?

1040
01:36:56,708 --> 01:36:58,958
Yes, My Commander.

1041
01:36:59,458 --> 01:37:00,541
Is it clear?

1042
01:37:00,625 --> 01:37:02,625
Yes, My Commander!

1043
01:37:03,291 --> 01:37:05,416
And don't pretend to be sick or injured.

1044
01:37:07,166 --> 01:37:08,750
Nobody cares.

1045
01:37:10,125 --> 01:37:12,166
Furthermore, your alternative is called:

1046
01:37:12,541 --> 01:37:13,750
"Trains heading East".

1047
01:37:16,375 --> 01:37:17,416
Come on!

1048
01:39:52,750 --> 01:39:54,291
Get back to work!

1049
01:41:18,958 --> 01:41:20,166
"Dear, Antonio,

1050
01:41:21,083 --> 01:41:23,500
my name has been added to the list

1051
01:41:24,083 --> 01:41:25,875
and I have to leave you.

1052
01:41:26,333 --> 01:41:29,083
When we saw each other
in the music room I already knew,

1053
01:41:30,375 --> 01:41:33,125
but I didn't have the courage
of ruining such a beautiful moment.

1054
01:41:34,583 --> 01:41:37,958
I don't know what awaits me,
nor where will they take me,

1055
01:41:39,666 --> 01:41:44,458
I just know that the love we have for each other
give me strength to wait

1056
01:41:45,458 --> 01:41:47,916
May you look for me and find me.

1057
01:41:49,250 --> 01:41:51,500
I'm looking at the starry sky
from Terezín

1058
01:41:52,833 --> 01:41:54,916
and in front of so much beauty

1059
01:41:55,666 --> 01:41:57,291
I can't be afraid.

1060
01:41:58,166 --> 01:42:00,708
Be strong, like I will be.

1061
01:42:02,041 --> 01:42:04,625
Yours forever, Martina."

1062
01:42:13,916 --> 01:42:17,833
MAY 5, 1945

1063
01:42:17,916 --> 01:42:19,583
Are any of you musicians?

1064
01:42:25,208 --> 01:42:28,666
Take available instruments
and go back to the front.

1065
01:42:37,166 --> 01:42:38,208
Come on!

1066
01:42:46,083 --> 01:42:47,291
Play something.

1067
01:42:48,916 --> 01:42:50,000
Anything!

1068
01:42:52,541 --> 01:42:53,583
Quick!

1069
01:42:55,958 --> 01:42:57,625
The rest of you, stand in line!

1070
01:42:57,708 --> 01:43:00,041
The first person to move...

1071
01:44:20,375 --> 01:44:22,541
A few days after my release,

1072
01:44:22,875 --> 01:44:29,000
the Soviet Army arrived in Terezín
on May 8, 1945.

1073
01:44:29,375 --> 01:44:35,083
And they found orphans, starving women
and sick elderly people.

1074
01:44:35,375 --> 01:44:38,625
All my companions
at that horrendous time in history,

1075
01:44:39,375 --> 01:44:43,583
Hans Krasa, Raphael Schachter,
Viktor Ullmann, Peter Kien,

1076
01:44:43,666 --> 01:44:45,958
Fridrich Mark and many others,

1077
01:44:46,250 --> 01:44:51,958
had already been deported and murdered
in Auschwitz at the end of 1944.

1078
01:44:55,833 --> 01:44:58,500
Many scholars
and musicologists believe that,

1079
01:44:58,583 --> 01:45:02,041
if those extraordinary talents
had survived,

1080
01:45:02,166 --> 01:45:04,583
they would have changed the culture of the 20th century.

1081
01:45:18,375 --> 01:45:21,000
I never found out what happened
with Martina,

1082
01:45:21,250 --> 01:45:24,625
but I imagine she suffered the same fate.

1083
01:45:25,708 --> 01:45:29,416
I went back to Italy a few times
to see my family,

1084
01:45:29,625 --> 01:45:32,250
but I chose to spend my life in Prague,

1085
01:45:32,416 --> 01:45:34,375
teaching music to children

1086
01:45:34,458 --> 01:45:37,125
and trying to explain to them how art

1087
01:45:37,208 --> 01:45:41,333
can be a wonderful comfort
and invigorating for the soul,

1088
01:45:41,500 --> 01:45:46,333
even in the most merciless conditions
that men can conceive.

1089
01:45:52,833 --> 01:45:55,392
RAIL TRANSPORT DOCUMENTS
THEY INDICATE THAT, BETWEEN 1941 AND 1945,

1090
01:45:55,416 --> 01:45:58,625
ABOUT 145 THOUSAND JEWS
(INCLUDING 5 THOUSAND CHILDREN)

1091
01:45:58,708 --> 01:46:00,416
THEY WERE DEPORTED TO TEREZIN

1092
01:46:00,500 --> 01:46:03,833
MORE THAN 33 THOUSAND DIED IN THE GHETTO
DUE TO POOR LIVING CONDITIONS,

1093
01:46:03,916 --> 01:46:06,125
ILLNESS, DEPRIVATION AND HUNGER;

1094
01:46:06,208 --> 01:46:09,375
MORE THAN 88 THOUSAND WERE DEPORTED
FOR GHETTOS

1095
01:46:09,500 --> 01:46:12,541
AND EASTERN EUROPEAN EXTERMINATION CAMPS

1096
01:46:12,625 --> 01:46:15,916
AT THE END OF THE WAR,
ONLY 17,247 PRISONERS SURVIVED

1097
01:46:16,916 --> 01:46:19,416
DURING HIS PRISON IN TEREZIN,
FRIEDL DICKER-BRANDEIS,

1098
01:46:19,500 --> 01:46:21,625
A TALENTED TEACHER
OF ART OF AUSTRIA,

1099
01:46:21,708 --> 01:46:23,500
SET UP A DRAWING CLASS FOR CHILDREN

1100
01:46:23,583 --> 01:46:26,208
THE RESULT OF THIS ACTIVITY
IT WAS A COLLECTION OF 4,387 DRAWINGS

1101
01:46:26,291 --> 01:46:28,208
THAT WERE HIDDEN IN SUITCASES

1102
01:46:28,291 --> 01:46:30,392
AND ONLY FOUND
MANY YEARS AFTER THE LIBERATION OF THE GHETTO

1103
01:46:30,416 --> 01:46:32,684
TODAY THEY ARE KEPT IN THE JEWISH MUSEUM
FROM PRAGUE AND IN BEIT TEREZIN,

1104
01:46:32,708 --> 01:46:34,958
AN INSTITUTION
IN KIBBUTZ GIVAT HAIM (ISRAEL)

1105
01:46:35,083 --> 01:46:37,833
AND REPRESENT AN EXTRAORDINARY TESTIMONY
OF LIFE IN THE GHETTO,

1106
01:46:37,916 --> 01:46:39,833
SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF THOSE CHILDREN

1107
