1
00:00:55,430 --> 00:00:56,670
Who would have predicted

2
00:00:57,410 --> 00:01:00,830
that man would one day fly
in the stratosphere?

3
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:05,170
Who could imagine
that he would fight there?

4
00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:07,890
This dream was impossible

5
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:14,030
for this region of Heaven was considered
like the domain of the Gods.

6
00:01:17,540 --> 00:01:23,130
FLIGHT IN THE SKIES

7
00:01:34,550 --> 00:01:35,380
Hartman.

8
00:01:35,830 --> 00:01:38,140
You are making condensation.
Reduce gas!

9
00:01:38,250 --> 00:01:39,030
Well received !

10
00:01:52,730 --> 00:01:53,320
Hartmann!

11
00:01:53,510 --> 00:01:54,270
Eject yourself!

12
00:01:54,470 --> 00:01:55,800
The canopy is blocked!

13
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:56,960
It doesn't open!

14
00:02:45,220 --> 00:02:46,640
This is Captain Rheindharst.

15
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,870
I fly over Manch Lake.

16
00:02:59,150 --> 00:03:00,640
I'm being chased.

17
00:03:01,050 --> 00:03:02,550
I have to abandon the plane.

18
00:03:44,870 --> 00:03:48,050
I am Erhardt Von Rheindharst.

19
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,880
In August 1944,

20
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,330
from the surface of Lake Manch,

21
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:56,080
I contemplated the starry sky
from Germany.

22
00:03:57,390 --> 00:04:00,160
The sparkle
of the celestial vault

23
00:04:00,850 --> 00:04:05,090
seemed to want to infuse me
the courage to survive.

24
00:04:17,750 --> 00:04:22,150
You would have fallen among the enemy,
you would be facing the Resistance.

25
00:04:22,610 --> 00:04:24,780
You were lucky,
Captain,

26
00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:27,450
as well as your Focke Wulf.

27
00:04:36,300 --> 00:04:37,360
It's impossible!

28
00:04:40,590 --> 00:04:42,480
The F.W.\h190A\h4,

29
00:04:43,330 --> 00:04:49,230
the plane that I was already flying in Africa, was
laid on the German meadow, in the dew,

30
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:53,060
without even a scratch
on the cabin.

31
00:04:54,050 --> 00:04:57,770
With the English Spitfire
and the Japanese Zero,

32
00:04:58,350 --> 00:05:01,190
the Focke Wulf 190
left his name

33
00:05:01,380 --> 00:05:05,360
in the legend of fighter planes
star motor.

34
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,170
Mine had just flown by itself,

35
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:14,110
as if the soul of its pilot had continued to inhabit his cockpit.

36
00:05:17,630 --> 00:05:22,260
He continued his flight until he exhausted his
fuel reserve and landed smoothly.

37
00:05:23,790 --> 00:05:25,540
Unless it was out of rage,

38
00:05:25,780 --> 00:05:29,960
full of resentment
against his master who had abandoned him.

39
00:05:31,950 --> 00:05:36,470
The silent protest of this monster showing off his
immaculate carcass,

40
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,840
crushed me with all its weight.

41
00:05:40,660 --> 00:05:42,060
His comrade did not flee.

42
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,330
He got shot down.

43
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,340
Talk about a flying ace!

44
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,630
He only thought about saving his skin!

45
00:05:49,670 --> 00:05:51,320
It's evil on the ground,

46
00:05:51,420 --> 00:05:52,990
but there is no one in the air!

47
00:05:58,430 --> 00:05:59,870
From this day on,

48
00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:04,990
I stopped being a hero of the
Luftwaffe, the German air force.

49
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,680
I was a coward who gave up
his plane without fighting.

50
00:06:12,130 --> 00:06:13,390
It would have been better

51
00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:16,340
that I die with my Focke Wulf.

52
00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:18,790
Alive, I was nothing.

53
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,470
They were Spitfires,

54
00:06:26,870 --> 00:06:28,690
with the tips of the wings cut off.

55
00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:29,950
It's true.

56
00:06:30,430 --> 00:06:32,940
Their Griffon engine is efficient
at altitude.

57
00:06:33,550 --> 00:06:34,630
While at 7\h000\hm,

58
00:06:35,070 --> 00:06:37,150
my Focke is losing its power.

59
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,750
It's not just a theory,

60
00:06:39,990 --> 00:06:41,470
this is reality.

61
00:06:42,660 --> 00:06:43,430
The higher we go,

62
00:06:43,630 --> 00:06:45,550
the greater the difference.

63
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:54,210
And with their radar guidance, the fights
at night, it’s pigeon shooting!

64
00:06:55,350 --> 00:06:59,230
It's the Focke Wulf you dare
treat yourself as a pigeon?

65
00:06:59,940 --> 00:07:00,440
No.

66
00:07:00,610 --> 00:07:02,790
It is a formidable combat aircraft.

67
00:07:03,630 --> 00:07:04,730
What I mean,

68
00:07:07,890 --> 00:07:09,310
it’s because we use it incorrectly.

69
00:07:10,930 --> 00:07:13,600
At high altitude,
he is not very efficient.

70
00:07:14,230 --> 00:07:16,160
This is a serious mistake

71
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,790
than to use it
to patrol at night

72
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,190
at more than 8\h000\hm.

73
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:23,440
Might as well fight
a rider at sea.

74
00:07:24,290 --> 00:07:27,130
Shut up, if it wasn't
your past victories…

75
00:07:29,390 --> 00:07:30,150
What is it?

76
00:07:30,590 --> 00:07:32,670
A test for the new rocket
V\h2.

77
00:07:33,010 --> 00:07:34,590
A long-range rocket?

78
00:07:34,780 --> 00:07:36,440
The first in the world.

79
00:07:36,850 --> 00:07:39,610
One day these weapons will decide
of the outcome of a war.

80
00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:42,250
What an era!

81
00:07:45,750 --> 00:07:48,170
The man should have been content

82
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,390
saber or pistol
to fight.

83
00:07:51,750 --> 00:07:53,570
The past is the past.

84
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,420
We must move forward.

85
00:07:55,570 --> 00:07:58,230
And you must find
your honor.

86
00:08:12,110 --> 00:08:15,340
I present to you the T.A.\h152\hH\h1.

87
00:08:16,030 --> 00:08:19,390
Latest powerful version
of Focke Wulf 190.

88
00:08:21,150 --> 00:08:23,170
It is the rebirth.

89
00:08:23,990 --> 00:08:27,550
This is the first device
left the factory in Bremen.

90
00:08:28,510 --> 00:08:30,750
Maximum altitude: 12\h500\hm.

91
00:08:30,870 --> 00:08:32,670
Maximum speed: 760 km/h.

92
00:08:32,910 --> 00:08:37,550
Equipped with 2 M.G.\h151 machine guns,
and a 30\hmm cannon,

93
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,560
he is without rival,

94
00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:43,670
except our Messerschmitt jet.

95
00:08:44,270 --> 00:08:48,160
And again, the jet engine
is less reliable

96
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:50,960
that the Jumo\h213 engine
with which this aircraft is equipped.

97
00:08:53,390 --> 00:08:57,130
You will pilot this fighter
to Pennemünde.

98
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,520
You will escort this B\h17

99
00:09:03,060 --> 00:09:06,830
that we took from the enemy
after a forced landing.

100
00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:10,440
You will protect him,
him and his cargo.

101
00:09:10,580 --> 00:09:11,430
Its cargo?

102
00:09:12,030 --> 00:09:13,100
To keep a secret,

103
00:09:13,250 --> 00:09:15,080
better to know nothing.

104
00:09:15,310 --> 00:09:17,260
Departure at 11pm.

105
00:09:18,090 --> 00:09:20,190
You will have no excuses,
this time.

106
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:21,190
It's clear ?

107
00:09:39,620 --> 00:09:41,460
Not in the bomb bay.

108
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,190
The professor!

109
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:49,960
Professor Bafstein!

110
00:09:52,150 --> 00:09:53,390
Von Rheindharst!

111
00:09:54,030 --> 00:09:55,310
It's been a long time!

112
00:09:55,550 --> 00:09:57,440
You look in good shape!

113
00:09:57,550 --> 00:09:58,210
You here ?

114
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,000
I'm on the trip.

115
00:10:01,150 --> 00:10:01,700
I see.

116
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,600
It is reassuring to know that
you will escort us.

117
00:10:07,190 --> 00:10:08,980
Me, and her.

118
00:10:11,230 --> 00:10:12,310
Meneheim!

119
00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:21,790
She replaced you.
She's my assistant.

120
00:10:22,260 --> 00:10:24,030
Meneheim, we are finished.

121
00:10:24,140 --> 00:10:25,900
Go and rest.

122
00:10:26,510 --> 00:10:29,030
Rheindharst, accompany her.

123
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,370
He died in combat.

124
00:10:34,010 --> 00:10:35,280
In El Alamein.

125
00:10:37,390 --> 00:10:39,450
A year and a half after our wedding.

126
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,140
Since…

127
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,760
I help my father
in his laboratory.

128
00:10:47,590 --> 00:10:49,370
I wanted to tell you...

129
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,380
I owe you an apology.

130
00:10:51,980 --> 00:10:53,930
I forgot the past.

131
00:10:55,020 --> 00:10:57,550
I can't forget it.

132
00:10:58,590 --> 00:11:02,450
I married him
so that his money helps my father

133
00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:04,950
to continue his research.

134
00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:06,750
I betrayed you.

135
00:11:07,350 --> 00:11:09,840
It was me who lacked guts.

136
00:11:10,660 --> 00:11:12,400
I should have taken you away from him.

137
00:11:14,070 --> 00:11:17,960
But it's too late
to make up for lost time.

138
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:20,140
Alas.

139
00:11:24,870 --> 00:11:27,310
We were so happy...

140
00:11:27,950 --> 00:11:28,990
that summer,

141
00:11:30,070 --> 00:11:32,230
by boat on the Elbe.

142
00:11:33,290 --> 00:11:34,950
I was 17 years old.

143
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:43,580
I especially remember you.

144
00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:47,120
You know.

145
00:11:48,170 --> 00:11:50,430
You haven't changed, you are beautiful.

146
00:11:54,390 --> 00:11:55,650
You are kind,

147
00:11:56,010 --> 00:11:57,200
Rheindharst.

148
00:12:06,470 --> 00:12:07,910
What is this plane carrying?

149
00:12:15,110 --> 00:12:16,750
There's no obligation for you to tell me.

150
00:12:17,180 --> 00:12:18,350
You'd be in trouble.

151
00:12:18,750 --> 00:12:20,390
It's a military secret.

152
00:12:23,750 --> 00:12:24,750
Rheindharst…

153
00:12:25,980 --> 00:12:26,670
follow me.

154
00:12:29,290 --> 00:12:31,020
Want to see the loading?

155
00:12:31,630 --> 00:12:35,070
My father asked me
to check it one last time.

156
00:12:42,260 --> 00:12:43,440
Why are you doing this?

157
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,720
It’s…

158
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:05,960
a bomb.

159
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:07,540
But…

160
00:13:08,310 --> 00:13:09,220
Does…

161
00:13:11,510 --> 00:13:13,590
It's a bomb...
with a nuclear warhead?

162
00:13:18,390 --> 00:13:19,050
Yes.

163
00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:20,790
The first in the world.

164
00:13:21,030 --> 00:13:23,060
We lack experience but…

165
00:13:23,220 --> 00:13:25,340
theoretically, it is on point.

166
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:27,900
Pennemunde…

167
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,490
Launch pads
of our rockets.

168
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,950
London, Washington, Moscow…

169
00:13:35,150 --> 00:13:36,720
Which one will disappear?

170
00:13:36,930 --> 00:13:37,810
But…

171
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:39,150
If my father...

172
00:13:39,290 --> 00:13:42,750
if Germany renounces
make it, another country will do it.

173
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,790
The issue is the end of this war.

174
00:13:47,620 --> 00:13:48,730
It's impossible!

175
00:13:49,790 --> 00:13:50,510
Me too,

176
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,350
I considered
the existence of such a weapon.

177
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,780
But from there…

178
00:13:57,450 --> 00:13:58,690
to really use it!

179
00:13:59,070 --> 00:14:03,250
The name of the one who first
dare to drop such a bomb,

180
00:14:03,560 --> 00:14:10,230
will forever be associated with that of the Demon who
will have sold his soul to the Devil, for eternity.

181
00:14:17,630 --> 00:14:18,790
My father and I

182
00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:22,630
we were forced to make a pact
with the Devil.

183
00:14:25,660 --> 00:14:28,590
I wish I never happened
in Pennemünde.

184
00:14:30,930 --> 00:14:32,750
My father thinks like me.

185
00:14:38,110 --> 00:14:39,870
If I had wings,

186
00:14:40,270 --> 00:14:41,920
I would go far from here.

187
00:14:42,630 --> 00:14:44,390
They say that when we die,

188
00:14:44,590 --> 00:14:46,550
wings of angels push us.

189
00:14:58,090 --> 00:14:59,380
Rheindharst!

190
00:15:00,020 --> 00:15:01,480
Save us from the Demon!

191
00:15:01,870 --> 00:15:02,980
Please !

192
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:07,310
I can't.

193
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,260
My mission,
is to protect you.

194
00:15:14,270 --> 00:15:15,640
I won't fail.

195
00:15:32,550 --> 00:15:33,310
Excuse me.

196
00:15:33,890 --> 00:15:36,590
Forget what I told you...

197
00:15:37,710 --> 00:15:39,040
A moment of weakness.

198
00:15:41,490 --> 00:15:42,950
It's better.

199
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,530
If the Devil existed,

200
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,630
what would he say about us?

201
00:15:59,790 --> 00:16:02,540
We are his servants.

202
00:17:27,230 --> 00:17:31,480
History will remember your name,
professor.

203
00:17:32,190 --> 00:17:34,580
Soon you'll be the man

204
00:17:34,690 --> 00:17:36,890
who led the 3rd Reich
to victory.

205
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,780
I am proud to be by your side!

206
00:17:52,260 --> 00:17:53,590
Enemy at ten o'clock!

207
00:17:54,870 --> 00:17:56,280
Don't worry.

208
00:17:56,390 --> 00:17:58,780
A brilliant pilot watches over us.

209
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,030
What class, this Rheindharst!

210
00:18:24,150 --> 00:18:26,150
Or rather… this T.A.\h152.

211
00:19:07,290 --> 00:19:13,120
At 10\h000\hm it's so fast
that the Spitfires can't escape.

212
00:19:27,810 --> 00:19:35,030
The name of the one who first dares to drop a
such bomb, will forever remain associated with that of the Demon

213
00:19:35,590 --> 00:19:39,150
who has sold his soul to the Devil,
for eternity.

214
00:19:55,670 --> 00:19:58,040
Excellent, Rheindharst.

215
00:19:58,730 --> 00:20:01,800
We will be in Pennemünde
in 15 minutes.

216
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,170
Go down from 7\h000 to 5\h000\hm.

217
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,480
Downhill from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m.

218
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,700
Rheindharst!

219
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,390
Where are you, Rheindharst?

220
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,240
Captain Rheindharst, answer!

221
00:20:32,470 --> 00:20:33,580
Here, Schwarzenbritz!

222
00:20:33,770 --> 00:20:35,550
Captain Rheindharst, answer!

223
00:20:35,810 --> 00:20:38,110
Here, Schwarzenbritz!

224
00:21:30,410 --> 00:21:31,980
If I had wings,

225
00:21:32,490 --> 00:21:34,090
I would go far from here.

226
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:39,550
Thank you…

227
00:21:39,870 --> 00:21:40,910
Rheindharst.

228
00:22:40,630 --> 00:22:41,610
Since that day,

229
00:22:42,260 --> 00:22:43,520
I am pointed out

230
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,490
and accused of cowardice.

231
00:22:46,830 --> 00:22:49,350
I am the shameful pilot
who, twice,

232
00:22:49,830 --> 00:22:52,030
failed in his duty as a fighter.

233
00:22:53,230 --> 00:22:53,840
Too bad.

234
00:22:54,670 --> 00:22:56,070
I accept my disgrace.

235
00:22:56,870 --> 00:22:58,280
I don't regret anything.

236
00:23:00,610 --> 00:23:03,820
I am Erhardt Von Rheindharst,

237
00:23:05,070 --> 00:23:07,910
the one who didn't sell
his soul to the Devil.
