All language subtitles for (1966)Judith

[Speaking German]

Now, here it comes.

[Chaim] Ah.

Hold it.

Come back, General.

We want to take
a good look at you.

Ah, ah.

That's it.

This is Schiller.

Do you recognize him?

[All] No.

I cannot.

Question, this shy,
nameless civilian

Who turned up in a Syrian
news photo last week

Hiding from the camera.

Observe, is this Schiller?

Camera shy you think?
No.

He knows he is a
wanted war criminal.

He's no fool.
But let me remind you all

We are not after Schiller,
the Nazi War Criminal.

We are after Schiller,
The Arab Tank Expert.

We dug up a mile of film
on his tanks, North Africa.

- France.
- Even the destruction

Of the Warsaw Ghetto,
but this is the best.

Correction, the only film
we got on Schiller himself.

Tall, blonde.

I think Aaron is right.

It's worth a gamble.

If we can't find a tall,
blonde Nazi in Syria...

A blonde head in a news
photo captioned "Somewhere
in the Middle East"

Does not qualify as proof
that Schiller is in Syria.

[Knock on door]

Yes?

More information on Schiller,

From Austria.

We hear from Prague
this afternoon.

You talk about proof.

We know for a fact from
intelligence reports he was
in Cairo in the summer,

In Beirut when the United
Nations voted for partition,

In Jordan, a month ago.

We know there's a heavy
concentration
of tanks in Syria.

Somebody high up in charge,
who else but Schiller?

You wish to go Nazi hunting?

To find a man you can't
identify by sight

Who most assuredly is not
calling himself Gustav Schiller.

How will you find him?
With a divining rod?

Give me five men,
I think I can find him.

My dear friend,
I admire your zeal.

The Haganah cannot risk
lives on guess work.

The Haganah!

The Haganah is supposed
to be an army.

We'll soon be the Army of Israel.
If we can't risk lives,

What are we wasting
our time for?

Now says
the United Nations.

Now let the State
of Israel be born.

Ready we say.
Delighted we say.

But how do we
stop the tanks?

We can plant the whole border
with mines, can we?

Where do we plant them?

On Aaron's kibbutz?

On mine?

Where?

When the British move out
on May 14, Chaim

The Arab tanks move in.

Wait a minute, wait a minute!

I think I found something.

What?

The missing piece.

The way to identify Schiller.

Good morning.

Good morning.

What's holding
him up, Conklin?

Mr. Conklin.

Mister.

We might have to
cut it down.

Take your time,
I've got all day.

I haven't.

You seem rather nervous
this morning, Stein.

I don't like to see
good things damaged.

Let's see what you've
got in there.

Ah, yes, a machine lathe.

To turn out guns, illegally?

To repair tractors.

Your tractors seem to break down
rather more than the usual.

They're used more than usual.

Anyway, it's a perfectly
legal shipment

Approved by the
British Authorities.

I presume you wouldn't mind
signing for them, Stein?

Mister.

That will be the day!

OK.

Just a minute, Stein.

I haven't finished yet.

Oh.

Open it up.

What for?

Just open it up.

All right.

Merry Christmas, Stein.

And a Happy Hanukkah, to you.

There's nobody following.

[Coughing and gasping]

She's dead.

Wait.

Let's get out of here.

Which one are you?

Which one are you?

Judith.
Judith Auerbach.

The kibbutz is right
up ahead there.

On the hill.

Everything is shared here.

Our work, our hopes.

Our lives.

Those are banana plants.

Twenty acres.

Over there, plums, peaches.

Best thing we are
raising is people.

220 of us from
18 different countries.

From the bare ground,
we built this.

[Kids singing]

[Chickens clucking]

I'll take care of
the other one.

Come on.

Rachel. Rachel, this
is Judith Auerbach.

This is Rachel Morris,
our doctor.

Hello, Judith.

Hello, Doctor.

- Just call me Rachel.
- See you later.

Aaron, what about
the other one?

She didn't make it.
She's dead.

Oh. Well, shouldn't I
at least examine her?

What for?
That's the one we need.

- Shalom.
- Shalom.

I'm the one he needs.
Like I'm some piece...

I know, I know.

He has a lot
on his mind.

So do I.

Now,
shall we get started?

With what?

A physical examination.

I'm fine.

We have to find
your blood type.

- Red.
- And check for infection.

I'm just dirty
on the outside.

And after the examination,
we'll take care of that too.

It's cold.

It's cold!

[Rachel] That towel
is right behind you.

What's next? Are you going
to shave off my hair?

We are through.
You can get dressed now.

- I want my own clothes.
- They're in the laundry.

I'll wait, then I'll
show you where you live.

Hannah!

Hannah?

Good morning, Rachel.

Your new neighbor, Hannah.

This is Judith.

Shalom.

You just arrived?

For the holidays.

I will show her around
and you can talk later.

Of course.

- We have a lot to talk about.
- I hope so.

Well, this is it.

Rough, but home.

It will do.

You are alone,
that's something.

That's everything.

What's that?

What's that for?

What do you think?
I'm a woman.

Although you wouldn't
know it in these clothes.

No, I mean the gun.

For protection.

All right. But weapons are
forbidden by the British.

Hide it.

Orders! Orders!

You are like the police.

Don't say that.

We have rules.

You live here,
you'll follow them.

Don't forget, you sent for me.

Name?

Auerbach.

Nationality?

Austrian.

Parents?

Dead, killed.

Married?

I don't know. Maybe the law,
but not in the meaning.

Children?

Children?

None, now.

Internment?

Dachau. Wiesbaden.

Number?

859643.

Occupation?

Oh well. I will put
down "general labor".

- I want to talk with you.
- Not now, later, I'm busy.

Busy? Loafing in an office,
cool and clean,

While they send me out
to sweat like a common
field hand.

Look at me.
They spent an hour
scrubbing me.

For what? This?

They're trying to wash
the past off you.

That's the honest
dirt of the future.

A philosopher!
If there's anything I hate

When things are bad,
it's a philosopher.

Judith, we all have
to work around here.

Not me! I didn't come here
to build your kibbutz or
keep it running.

I came to find
Gustav Schiller.

And you sent for me!
You said you could find him!

If you can identify him, yes.

Show him to me.
I will identify him
like a cockroach.

[Gunfire]

Arabs! Come on!

Get back, go away.

[Guns blasting]

[Men shouting]

Beyond that hill
is the Syrian border.

Sometimes they fire
at us just to annoy us.

Sometimes
they mean business.

Danny! Danny!
What's it look like?

I give it two minutes.

I don't want to sound a general
alarm unless I have to.

I'll wait.

They won't attack
with the British here.

They would do anything
to drive us out.

Then it is stupid
to stay.

Where do we go back to?
Belsen, Auschwitz?

The Warsaw Ghetto?

That's you're worry, not mine.
Let's get down to my problem.

Your problem is right here.

Survival! You're a Jew,
like the rest of us!

I'm a race of my own
called Judith.

The independent state
of me.

- Danny?
- No flags, no bibles,

No wars to make a better world.
Just plain Judith.

[Gunshots continue]

Where are you going?

You're could get killed before
we finish what we started.
It's important to me.

The independent state
of Judith seems to be
needing help already.

[Phone ringing]

Poppies.

- Poppies!
- Poppies!

Good afternoon,
Mr. Stein.

Good afternoon,
Major Lawton.

It's good quality metal.

Ideal for rifle barrels.

Which of course is
precisely what
you've been making on this.

It's for tractor parts.

I suppose I shall
confiscate this.

We need it.

I heard there was fighting

And firing on the border,
earlier today.

Yes. We didn't start it.

You're not supposed
to possess weapons.

You're not supposed
to let the Arabs in.

One can't be everywhere.

We have to be.

I have 200 men to guard a whole
area against 30,000 Arabs.

I am a soldier,
under orders.

If you keep on smuggling,
making, hiding arms and
ammunition,

I shall have eventually
to take this kibbutz
apart stone by stone.

If you do, you'll make
a lot of people homeless.

You won't find anything.

Don't you realize it's
come to the breaking point?

It's a matter of
which breaking point
you are talking about.

Yours is patience,
mine is survival.

That's well put,

But I didn't come here
to debate old issues.

I came here to draw
the line, clearly, like that.

The matter of
illegal immigrants.

- We've nothing to do...
- I've heard it all.

Your friends send them
and you have no choice
but to receive them here.

Without proper clothing
or food or protection.

Yet you go on and on.

We've nothing to do
with immigrants.

Please let me finish.

If only you'd
bide your time,

You could bring them in
safely, properly, but you won't.

And the whole thing has become
a bloody wasteful tragedy.

You're killing British
soldiers wantonly.

Young fellows who don't even
know what this is all about.

What about our people?

Well, what about them?

They die on ship
or they die in the surf.

They die trying to kill us.

They die in the
frightful heat of this
back-alley piece of dirt

Trying to turn it
into paradise.

Paradise will never be built
on a mountain of death.

It depends what you're
prepared to die for.

You may make the
choice for your own,

But you'll kill
no more of my men.

Now listen, Stein,

One more shipment of
illegals, just one,

I will pack you and every
living soul on this kibbutz

Back to Cyprus.
And I can do it.

Not alive, you can't.

Of course.

That's your best weapon.

Lives for principles.

Stop fiddling about with that
damn engine block and
do something useful.

You're only doing
it because I'm here.

Hasn't been used for months.

It came out of the tractor this
morning, it was stalling.

Stalling indeed.

Perhaps it was all these
cobwebs up the spout.

It's a pity.

What?

That we are not
on the same side.
That's always the way.

A good soldier is made by
the quality of his opposition.

Mr. Carstairs.

Oh, Major Lawton.

This is Judith.

- How do you do?
- Hello.

She was just walking by
and she stopped to ask for
directions or something.

- You're new here, aren't you?
- She certainly is.

No, I was here before
you were ever in this area.

I've been at another
kibbutz, teaching school.

I'm Aaron's girl.

Oh really?

Congratulations, old man.

What kibbutz?

Should we tell him, dear?

Matsuva.

Dachau.

All right Toby.

- Carry on Sergeant.
- Embus men.

You should have more sense
than to come here.

- They could've arrested you.
- They didn't.

You're angry because
of what I'm wearing.

I don't care what you wear.
But why take chances,
to show your legs to soldiers.

I came to finish
our talk.

- You can do it this evening.
- I haven't got time to waste.

Neither do I!

I'm not in your army.

Next time you come
to see me.

Hannah.

People are staring.
You caused quite a stir, Judith.

I don't care one way
or the other. Some carrots.

To look like you must be
a wonderful feeling.

You really think so?
Try it for a year.

Me? No, it's not possible.
I'm a lump.

She's all right.

Nothing,
just another girl.

Just another girl.

Like a diamond is
just another rock.

How can you eat like that
and still keep your shape?

I eat when I can.

Some days I don't always
find food.

You'll always
find it here.

I'm not planning to stay.

- No?
- A few days,
a week at the most.

- Where will you go?
- Wherever I have to.

[Loud blasting]

[People shouting, whimpering]

[Guns blasting]

Take the women away quickly!

Keep us covered
as we go down.

They've set
fire to the barn.

- You cover the checkpoint.
- All right.

Sammy, come on.

How'd they get
past the guards?

Let's get the ammunition.

[Man shouting]

[Cattle moaning]

Come on, let's hurry!

Come on!

- Hurry up!
- Open the gates!

Get the ammunition out.

[Shouting, grunting]

Get the ammunition
and the animals!

[Cattle moaning]

[Men shouting, screaming]

All clear. Get out!

Come on!
Hurry it up!

Get them out!

- Come on!
- Get out!

All right, let's go.

[Blasting continues]

You seem to have
won the fight.

If we hadn't, you'd be lying
with your throat cut by now.

Maybe.

Maybe not.

What kind of person
are you?

I don't care
what you think.

You know
what time it is?

Middle of the night.

Early morning.

I'm accustomed
to the nightlife.

I can imagine.

You have a certain
annoying persistence.

Because you've
been avoiding me.

I been at
the beach sunbathing.

I can't afford
to lose time.

It's the only thing I have
left that's valuable.

You think
you're alone in that?

We fought tonight
for time,

And we paid for it.

A barn, animals.

A machine shop
full of tools.

Guns, ammunition.

And what's more important,
two men,

Three wounded,
one seriously.

If you're so concerned about
time, why didn't you help us
instead of running away to hide?

I came too far to be killed
by a stray Arab bullet

Or to stand around crying
with you at your wailing wall.

I could kick you out of that
door and down the stairs.

I'll let you if you tell me
where to find Gustav Schiller.

I don't know.

In Trieste
the Haganah told me.

They told you exactly what
we told them to say.

You dirty liar,

To bring me here
for nothing.

I spent nearly
three years of my life

Walking every street of every
city in Europe
searching for Schiller.

I didn't lie you.
He's here somewhere
in the Middle East.

We don't know
exactly where,

And you're the only one
who can identify him.

Identify him
for what purpose?

The Arabs are
using heavy tanks

And Schiller is teaching
them how to use them.

You plan to kill him?

Capture him.
Interrogate him.

There are no photographs
of him anywhere

And you would recognize him on
sight, you were his wife.

I was his victim.

Waiting here
I can be caught in this
war and never get out.

You lived.

You are better off
than six million others.

Don't lecture me on the
values of life or death.

Do you have one of these?

No, I fought in
the Jewish Brigade,

Attached to
the British Army.

Dachau was no rest home.

Dachau.

Dachau, that's all
you ever talk about.

I know about you.

You ate the best food,
you drank the best wine.

You comforted men exhausted
from exterminating Jews in
a brothel in Wiesbaden.

You want me to tell you
how much I liked it? I did.

I shouted with happiness
when my husband abandoned
his Jewish wife and child.

I screamed with pleasure when
they tore Karl out of my arms
at the separation center.

And you should see
how I laughed

When they dragged him away from
me calling, "Mother, Mother!"

Every good thing in me
died over and over again.

I fought too.

I fought insanity.

I fought suicide.

I fought death.

I kept something of me
alive all this time

For one reason alone.

To bring Gustav Schiller
to justice.

And I will.

I will.

I brought some clean
things from the laundry.

What's the time?

A little after nine.

I drank some wine.

I said nothing.

How's Jacob?

Jacob died, this morning.

Just as the sun came up.

Jacob, Sam, Miki.

You, me.

Judith.

No exceptions on the kibbutz.

Should there be?

What's bothering you,
Rachel?

She doesn't belong here.

She's not one of us.

She's a homeless woman
who served her time
in a camp and lost her son.

She's more one of us
than most of us are.

She doesn't believe in us!

She eats our food
but won't share the work.

If she had a broken leg,
would you put her out
to work in the field?

Don't be foolish.

She has a broken mind.

Give it time to heal.

There, there.

Amman the fifth,
tanks redeployed the 8th.

Beirut, the 16th.
Tanks redeployed the 19th.

Since then,
there is no pattern.

Just a hundred daggers
pointed at our throats.

Your Schiller has
gone underground.

So deep, we cannot
pick up his scent.

So now, we must sniff
out a new trail.

British Personnel and Records.

They've already been moved
from Jerusalem to Haifa.

Here they've been assembled

Preparing to move everything
out by the 14th.

Our report is, their
German War Criminal file

Is in Haifa Headquarters now.

Aaron, I've worked up
a perfect raid plan.

But, Chaim...

Said, no.

If we miss,
no second chance.

There are other ways.

We will try them all.

Your Judith, is a
difficult girl I hear.

Why not?
She feels cheated.

We didn't promise her a
promenade on the Upper Galilee.
We promised her Schiller.

Exactly. She detests
kibbutz life, eh?

Well, let her leave,
for Haifa.

You seem protective.

You think she wants
or needs protection?

Doesn't want it but
she needs it, I think.

Against herself,
despite herself.

What do we want her to do?
What she wants to do.

What she came here to do.
To find Schiller.

She is an adult.

You cannot graft
a conscience on her now.

She may find it for herself
when she finds Schiller.

How much
can we tell her?

Only one thing.

The British file on
German War Criminals

Is in Haifa.

Aaron, we have another little
job for you and your kibbutz.

This one may compensate
you for the risk.

Anyway, what choice have we got?

Another refugee ship left
from Marseille last Tuesday,

Strictly against our orders.

They are a double violator
because they are also
carrying ammunition.

Take charge
of the landing.

The ammo is yours.

Help make up for
the fire losses.

Thank you, Eli.

Shalom.

Shalom.

Something to see, eh?

Are you counting
the soldiers among them?

Tomorrow's early graves?

What do we do
without soldiers?

Probably a lot better.

Do you want to work
with the children?

No.

I would like to be
with my own child, Karl.

If he only lived.

It's possible.

Some of the children lived,
somehow.

I would have known by now.

I would have heard.

You are going after
illegal immigrants tonight.

Refugees.

Take me along.
Put me on the boat.

I want to get out of here.

I can't do that, if they catch
you at sea, they'll put you
in Cyprus for a long time.

Didn't that British Major
say he'd send everyone
here to Cyprus

If he caught you
with immigrants again?

He did.

The risk is
the same to me.

That Major doesn't
strike me as a man
you can play tricks with.

He's an officer,
but he's sentimental.

And you are not?

I'm as sentimental
as you are.

That's good.

Because nothing will
keep me here but news
of Gustav Schiller.

- We are trying.
- How?

The Haganah are searching,

But it's a pity we're not more
friendly with the British.

They have lists,
probably in Haifa.

Of German Officers?

Of Nazi War Criminals
and where they fled to.

Unless we can find them,

We have to work
it out ourselves.

Back to work.

[Whistles]

- Shalom.
- Shalom.

Everything ready?

Yes.

Look.

There she is.

Let's get everybody down.

[Whistle]

[Car horn]

Reckless bloody Jews.

- Corporal.
- Sir.

Shall we keep your racial
opinions to yourself.

Very good, sir.

- [Dog barking]
- [Whistling]

[Israeli folk music playing]

[Group singing in Hebrew]

Major Lawton.

Good evening, Doctor.

Good evening.

If you're looking for
Aaron, he's not here.

Oh. Haganah business?

Taking some of our produce
to the market in Jerusalem.

A rather pedestrian job for an
Army Officer, don't you think?

One time soldier,
now a Kibbutznik.

Would you join me
in a cup of tea?

I'd be delighted.

All right, Corporal,
smoke if you want.

Thank you, sir.

Lemon? Sugar?

Plain.

Good,
we're out of sugar.

Thank you.

I get a strange feeling.

Maybe you need a doctor?

Or a large gin.

I see a night
of celebration.

Still it's odd,
there's not a man in sight.

Some on guard duty, some
on their way to Jerusalem.

Others, dancing.

I've just heard from
Middle East Command.

They're trebling,
the night patrol.

There are now three destroyers
lying off this area.

Our government have
an Arab commitment

While we stay in Palestine.

Our orders are precise,

To prevent a landing
at any cost.

I'll tell Aaron
when I see him.

You mean
if you see him again.

It's not a question
of what they are doing
is it, but where?

They're on their
way to Jerusalem.

Like all good pilgrims.

[Singing continues]

I've got work to do.

Tell Aaron a new man's
taking over tomorrow.

Major Shingleton.
Good man,

But tough as Army beef.

Heart like a cactus.

Well, well. Julie.

Aaron's girl.

My name is Judith.

Yes, of course.
Of course.

Judith.

Thank you for the tea.

I think I'll take
a farewell stroll around
the kibbutz with Judith.

Come on, come on.

What was the kibbutz
where you were teaching?

We told you once.

Tell me again.

Matsuva.

I don't even believe
that you are Aaron's girl.

I'm illegal.

- I don't belong on a kibbutz.
- What?

I came here only to
look for somebody

And then get out.

Who, if I may be
so inquisitive?

General Gustav Schiller.

Tank commander,
German army.

You came to a kibbutz
to find a Nazi General?

Was he a friend
of yours?

He was my husband.

What are you going
to do, Judith?

Find some way out of here
and to continue to search.

I wish I could help you.

I'm afraid
I can't do very much.

I'm being transferred to
Haifa Headquarters tomorrow.

Please try to look
on me as a friend.

If ever you
pass that way,

Don't hesitate
to contact me.

Are you serious, Major?

I wouldn't have
said it otherwise.

Things went well
last night I hear.

For us, but we are
not always so lucky.

Nathan,
do me a big favor.

Sure, anything.

Give me a ride
out of here.

That's,
that's something else.

Only to the main road.

I have some business
to do in Haifa.

Ask Aaron.

Well, it's personal.

I don't know,

I'm supposed to have
permission before
I take this lorry out of here.

So should you.

I'll only be gone a few hours,
nobody will miss me.

Maybe when I come back,
I'll go to work for you.

As your assistant mechanic.

You're a mechanic?

My father built tractors.
I know all about it.

- No fooling?
- No fooling.

Carburetor, manifold,
air filter, plugs,

Points, generator.

You really know.

And besides, you are the
only friend I have here.

All right, during lunch,
down by the tractor shed.

What are you doing?

I have to change. I cannot do
it on the open highway.

Oh, sure.

I was trying to avoid
something on the road.

Are you watching the road?

All the time.

Good.

Keep on watching it.

- Zip it up, please.
- Huh?

Zip it up.

Thank you, Nathan.

I hope you won't
get in to trouble.

It was worth it.

Goodbye, Judith.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

[All chattering]

[Men singing]

[Horn blaring]

Come on, open up!

Hold it.

What are you lot
up to now?

Come on sarge, let us in.

We're on urgent business.

You are on urgent
business, are you?

Official of course.

Everything we do is official.

- Who are you, miss?
- Judith.

Now you know who she is,
let us through.

She can't get
in without a pass.

Come on sergeant.
You can stretch a point
can't you then?

All right. Who is
she here to see?

Major Lawton.

Let them in.

Do the same for you,
one day.

- Well?
- Yes?

Big slob Nathan,
fell for it.

Played the fool. She's
gone to Haifa by thumb.

Good. The Haganah will follow
her every inch of the way.

We may be lucky.

Aaron?

What?

Forget it.

Forget what?

Nothing.

Nathan?

I like her, that's all.
Is that a crime?

Major Lawton,
I need your help.

Please,
won't you sit down?

What kind of help
do you need, Judith?

The German War Criminal files
have come here from Jerusalem.

You have them.

Your people
are well informed.

Give me the file
on Gustav Schiller.

[Laughs] I'm afraid
it isn't as easy as that.

Yes, Major, it is.

For you, maybe.

For me, there's a small matter
of a soldiers conscience.

And there is a small
thing called justice.

That's all I'm asking for.

Look, Judith,
I hate to sound so British,

But I have a military
duty to consider.

Duty?

It's one of those big
words that hides
all sorts of smallness.

It has been used
in that way, yes.

But not by me, I hope.

It's the word they used
when they tortured.

When they burned people
in the gas ovens.

A soldier was doing his duty
when he killed my son.

There is something called
human responsibility,
isn't there?

There is.

I think you might grant
me my share in that.

Otherwise, you and many
of your friends

Would be in detention
camps on Cyprus.

I know, I know.
That's why I came to you.

My dear, try to understand,

I can't just make you a
gift of an official file.

Life has taught me
not to expect gifts.

I will pay for it.

Where are you staying?

I don't know yet.

I'll try to arrange a room
at a hotel downtown.

Where is your luggage?

I can arrange for that too.

Manure means powder.

Sea means shells.

Come on, Aaron.
Sign. Make it snappy.

It's 4:00,
I have to get back to Haifa.

Any other news?

Better check the powder.

I went through an irrigation
ditch to dodge the road block.

What about Judith?

Judith? Judith, um...

She was installed
yesterday in a hotel on
Kingsway by Major Lawton.

Left her in the lobby.

Took her shopping later.

Left her
on her door step.

This gallant,
old-fashioned courtship

Could go on forever.

We're running out of time.

Well,
we're betting on her.

We have controls on the
phone and the hotel.

You'll hear
as soon as we do.

- Shalom.
- Shalom.

[Lawton] Judith, I am
downstairs. May I come up?

Yes, please do.

[Knocking]

- [Knocking]
- Yes?

I'm sorry I am late.

I've been having a rather
difficult time of it.

Look at me, Judith.

You're looking
at a battlefield.

Major Lawton's conscience
put up a bloody battle,
but I won.

I don't like the idea of
that file leaving Palestine

To gather dust in
some cellar in London,

But I do like the thought
of simple justice

Catching up with
Gustav Schiller.

I'm grateful to you.
Very grateful to you.

You've kept your
part of the bargain.

And you intend
to keep yours now?

A duty,
or a human responsibility?

Judith, you've got re-learn
part of your life.

This is a gift
from me to you.

Freely given and gladly.

I have been living for this.

That's what worries me.
What will you do with it
now that you've got it?

I don't know.

I'll find a way.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

I feel extremely virtuous.

Granted, not much
like a soldier,

More like a human being.

Take care.

[Knock on door]

Yes?

Who is it?

Aaron's friends,
Miss Auerbach.

Miss Auerbach?

Yes?

Miss Auerbach, we
must congratulate you.

For what?

Schiller's dossier.
We've never seen a faster,
smoother job.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

We know what we've heard.

Come on.
Where is it? Let's go.

I have nothing
to give you.

Nothing.

Get out of here!

Get out of here!

Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!

No, it's mine!
No!

No, no!

No, it's mine!

It's mine!
No!

So we used you.
Yes, of course.

When you came here,
you were willing to use us.

You used the Major.

If you'd got hold
of this address, you'd
have kept it to yourself.

Now everybody is rewarded.

You and I win
General Gustav Schiller.

Damascus.

Yes, the Syrian capital.

Now we have a plan
how to get him.

We slip into Syria
tonight by boat,

Across the Sea of Galilee.

We only have four days
to get there.

Find him, get him
and bring him back.

If we are caught,
we'll be lucky to be shot.

Hurry, the Syrian patrol
will be back in 15 minutes.

We'll be back here the day
after tomorrow at midnight,
for five minutes only.

We're gonna do that
for three nights.

What happens if we don't
get back on time?

You'll have to go
underground until
we contact you some other way.

Shalom, come with me.

[Man singing over PA]

[Man] We continue
our tour of Damascus

By visiting one of the
most beautiful examples
of Islamic architecture,

The Amachiad Mosque.

This way, please.

Now a brief stroll
through the colorful bazaar.

This is Marja Square,

Famous for it's fine shops
and restaurants.

Here we have the internationally
renowned Grand Hotel,

Built in the latter part
of the 19th Century.

Famous for its
inlaid mosaic floors

And infamous
for its plumbing.

A playground
for the wealthy,

It has become a haven
for soldiers of fortune.

Perhaps you would like
some liquid refreshment?

Yes, thank you.

Equally famous outdoor
cafe, Bel Shaaib.

Of course it is popular
with artists,

Writers, sightseers and
residents of the Grand Hotel.

Now that you are
comfortably seated,

I will retire
to await your call.

Here is my card.

Contact me if you need me.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

Waiter, can we have
the bill, please?

No.

Your bill, sir.

Come on.

Waiter?

Waiter?

Your usual?

Yes, John, as always.

Thank you.

- Schiller?
- Definitely.

Now we know what
he looks like.

The problem is to
get him out of here.

- I think I know of a way.
- It will have to be tomorrow.

It's the last night
they can pick us up.

That's your concern,
not mine.

[Speaks German]

Peter comes with me.

[Car horn blaring]

Please sit down.

Waiter? Waiter, here.

Give me the bill.

[Men shouting, chattering]

Madam!
Madam, pardon me.

I want to ask
you something.

Yes?

Well, it's just that I...

You see, I wanted to get
a better look at you.

It's because you remind me
of someone and I thought...

Judith!

Gustav.

Yes, Gustav.

Yes, Gustav.

[Gunshot]

- Get a doctor as quickly
as possible.
- That cannot be done.

It has to be done.

Every doctor in the city
is registered by the police.

We might as well carry him
into the police headquarters
ourselves.

We have to stop this bleeding.
Get some towels.

You realize
what you have done?

You've put our
necks into a noose.

Did you have to bring us
all this way to cheat us
of our one chance?

Do you realize
what you've done?

Do you realize
what you've done?!

Leave her alone!
Alone!

Let's get him out
of here, alive.

What time is it?

Ten past twelve.

[Boat approaching]

Aaron?

We've got him.
He's wounded.

- Did you hear the news?
It's happened.
- What?

We've got
our independence.

We've declared ourselves
a State today.

They said we couldn't
make it, but we have.

Present state is serious,
but not critical.

The doctor says he can
be interrogated when he
comes out of sedation.

Can he be moved to Haifa?

He's under sedation.

He's not critical.

She says he might survive,

But she won't take
responsibility for him.

The responsibility is ours.

Shall we risk moving him?

- No.
- Yes!

Aaron?
Aaron, listen to me.

Operation Judith, has not been
a complete success, agreed?

Now it must pay off.
Now or never. Every hour counts.

Keep Schiller there.

We will come to him.

[Armed forces music trumpeting]

[Soldier shouting commands]

How can you miss
this historic occasion?

There.

Well, that's the very last.

Let us now take a deep breath.

One breath is all
we have time for.

Here we are,
one small new nation

With a small ill-equipped army,

Surrounded by six nations
with six armies.

All very well equipped.

Will soon know now,
won't worry.

Judith?

Would you like
to go up to the cabin
and change your clothes?

Rest? You've had a hard time.

Things look different,
don't they?

It's the same rocks and hills,
I know, but with a new name...

Israel.
A whole new beginning.

Are you hungry?
Would you like a cigarette?

Think of it, Judith.

This morning our
children will wake up
in a country of their own.

Oh, Judith.

I'm sorry.

Oh God, I'm sorry.

General Schiller.

You are willing to state that
you are General Gustav Schiller,

Former Panzer Commander
of the Wehrmacht?

I am General Gustav Schiller.

Former Panzer Commander
of the Wehrmacht?

I am General
Gustav Schiller.

General Schiller,

We will put some questions
to you once more.

We demand your answers.
You have no option.

If you choose not to
answer freely and fully,

I assure you,
you will answer.

Now once again,
General Schiller,

We require the number,
the types and the disposition

Off all the tank forces
on our borders.

We require
the exact locations

Of the
heavy armored units,

The supply lines

And the
communication lines.

You will supply
exact information

As to all the Arab
armored units!

And all the other forces
that surround our country.

But the most
important thing

That you will tell us,

Is the date, the time

And the exact points where the
Arabs will cross our borders.

I am General Gustav Schiller.

And you should know
that my name and rank

Are all I'm required to give
you under the Geneva Convention,

Governing war prisoners.

"Crimes against humanity,"

Colonel Gustav Schiller.

28th Panzer Division,
France, 1941.

Leveled the villages of Nizier,
Vercor, La Mare, Chappel,

Without warning.

Murdered the entire population,

Including hundreds
of women and children.

Lieutenant General Gustav
Schiller, North Africa, 1942.

British Prisoners of War cut
down by your machine guns.

General Gustav Schiller,
Poland 1943.

On your orders,

The 19th Panzer Division
came to the aid of the SS

And executed the final
mechanized destruction

"Of the Warsaw Ghetto."

You are no Prisoner of War,

You are a War Criminal wanted
by four other nations.

Now, will you answer
to our questions?

Since I will not
answer voluntarily,

Your questions are useless.

You know very well, I won't
live long under interrogation.

You are responsible
for thousands of lives

Which concern us
more than yours.

I now give you, Gustav Schiller,

Your last chance
to answer questions.

It is your choice.

We will now allow you time
in which to reconsider.

One way or another,
you will reconsider.

You will answer
the last question first.

The place, dates and hour

Of the main Arab attack.

I will give you no answers.

I give you a warning,
a warning!

You think you have seen war,
none like this.

This will be a war
of extermination.

Get out of Palestine!

There is no room for you!

Get out of Palestine!

Get out of Palestine,
I tell you!

Don't go to sleep.

Captain Arazi
now in charge.

Look alive, Yaneck.

I just hope I look
alive a week from now.

[Knock on door]

Yes?

Good morning.

Good morning.

How are you feeling now?

I don't know.

I never thought
beyond the day I'd
find Gustav Schiller.

Judith, I am sorry
we used you in Haifa.

I mean that.

I'm sorry about Damascus.

You have Schiller
under guard, why?

To keep me away?

You tried to kill him once,
wouldn't you try it again?

For years that was
all I could think of.

Now all I can think of
is my... my dead child.

My Karl.

I went mad when you
fired that gun.

Don't you think I
know why you did it?

Don't you think I
understood why you did it?

Aaron,
will you ever forgive me?

You called me Aaron.

Forgive me, Aaron,
for what I did to you.

To your plans.

You called me Aaron
for the first time
as if I really existed.

If only I could get Schiller
to tell me where and when
the attack will come.

We can't move him.
The Interrogation
Committee have come and gone

And now it's left with me.

That... just lies
there and won't speak.

But I'll make him talk.

Half the members
of this kibbutz are victims
of concentration camps.

He will talk.

Take cover!

[Automatic gunfire rattling]

[Screams]

All sections,
all sections stand by.

Stand by, this is Aaron.

All stations. All stations,
hold your fire.

Don't waste ammunition.

Fire only when I tell you.

Don't waste ammunition.

Fire only on the front rank.

Fire!

[Speaking German]

Those Syrian idiots.

I could take this toy
village in two hours,

If those idiots
would follow orders.

I'm sure you think so, General.

With all the experience
you've had

In murdering
helpless people.

What do you want here?

I want the information
you refuse to give.

Tell them I'm ready to talk
when they get me out of here.

You'll talk now.

No.

I tried to kill you once,
this time I won't fail.

You'll talk or die.

Wait. I'll tell you what
you need to know.

The attack here is a trap.

The main attack will come
through the Jordan Valley.

Five hours from now, after you
have been reinforced here.

I don't want to die in this
tower. Give me a chance.

As much chance as you
gave my child, murderer.

Judith wait!

You think Karl is dead?

He is alive!

And I know where he is.

You're lying.

- You're lying.
- Alive.

- Where?
- Alive.

- I can prove it.
- Tell me. Where?

Karl, God, where?

If I die in this tower,
you will never know.

Aaron. Aaron!

Get down.

- He's alive.
- What?

- He is alive.
- Who?

Karl. My child.
He's alive. He didn't die.

Who told you that?

Schiller. Just to think
I might have killed him.

He's lying,
he told you that
to save himself.

No! It's true, Aaron.

I know it's true. He wants to
make a bargain with you.

- Bargain?
- Yes.

He told me what
you have to know.

What?

The Arab attack.

Avram, Shimon.

What did he say?

He said the main
attack will come through the
Jordan Valley, near Degania.

What else?

In five hours after
reinforcements are here.
This one is a trap.

Did you get that?
Radio headquarters.

Schiller's information.
In code and tell
them to check it.

Please, Aaron,
Gustav says Karl is alive.

Yes, come.

He'll tell me where
I can find him if you
give him your word

That you'll free him when
his information is confirmed.

He says he trusts you.

Judith, I'd give my life
not to have to say this to you,

But I can't accept
a bargain with Schiller.

Aaron, it's very
important to me.

Schiller doesn't belong
to me. There's more than
his life at stake.

[Man]
Here they come again!

[Loud blasting]

Aaron.

[Judith] No!

No!

Gustav. Gustav!

[Wailing]

Fire!

Fire!

- I'll never see my son.
- Schiller is dead.

I'll never see
my son again.

No!

I promise we'll
find your Karl.

Listen to me,
we found you,
we found Schiller,

And now that we are certain
he's alive, we will find Karl.
I promise. I promise.

No.

Trust me.

Trust me!

Trust me.

[Screams]

It's true!

Schiller's information is true.

No, Chaim, we'll hold.

Chaim, you send your
reinforcements to Degania.

We'll hold.

[Soldiers shouting]

This is Section Four.

- Section Four calling Aaron.
- [Loud explosion]

Section Four has
turned them back.

- I have to go.
- I'll go with you.

No, you stay here.

- Aaron.
- We'll survive.
