[Charles] You are going to Germany.

It's about a space project.

Russe, top secret.

I develop rockets.

[director] How lucky to go up there.

- Virgil, who is it? - [Charles] A chaperone.

- [Francis] And Anne? - [Charles] You're lying.

- Where are you going ? - In London.

I'm pregnant, I don't want it.

(heavy music)

- [Charles] Your target. - Professor Golubev?

[Charles] Code name: Radagast.

[director] A Soviet physicist.

[Yemeline] The space center is recruiting.

We want to know if he informs the Americans.

You are his daughter.

You're going to get hired.

(soft music)

- Why did you come? - A scientific congress.

Slept well ?

It was the Stasi,

the East German KGB.

- And the guy? - [Virgil] I don't know.

Don't let fear take over you.

You must meet Radagast, then see him again.

I'll tell you when to tell him about the bomb.

There are three days left, it will go quickly.

You will have few opportunities to meet him.

Beware of everyone.

(rhythmic music)

[in German] Hello, sir.

Some information on the conferences of the day.

[in Russian] At 10 a.m., debate moderated by Van Hammer

around the power scopes.

There is also a film about Vostok 6 with Valentina Tereshkova.

At 11:00 a.m., you're showing at the same time as a debate on the galaxies.

Where's the KGB guy?

I do not know.

Make sure I always have water at my desk.

I will be back.

(he hits)

[Hermann] Yes?

[Boris] I met all the members of your team,

more past Ludwig Reinhard.

He is not there ?

[Hermann] He disappeared. It seems that he would have passed to the West.

Maybe in Paris.

[Boris] I understand better why I am being watched by the KGB...

(suspense music)

(conversation hubbub)

[in German] Dear guests,

please book with Professor Boris Golubev

a warm welcome.

(applause)

[in Russian] Ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues.

In the navigation system

of our Vostok and Voskhod spacecraft ,

both mechanical components are used

facilitating data calculation work for cosmonauts,

just an electric block...

See you soon, thank you.

(applause)

Sorry. Sorry.

Wonderful presentation, professor.

Francis Mareuil. I work at CNES in France.

I admire your work. I quoted you in my thesis,

Magnetic stabilization in the control...

It is forbidden to speak to Professor Golubev.

[in German] Sorry.

[Francis] I didn't know.

(tension music)

Undress, please.

I came to see Jacqueline.

Jacqueline, yes.

Undress.

I didn't come for that. I just want to talk to him.

Yes, Jacqueline.

Undress.

And Jacqueline will come?

[in Chinese] Yes.

(eerie music)

[woman, in Russian] So our findings contradict

the claims of American researchers about cold traps.

According to them,

these cold traps are constantly shadowed craters...

[in Russian] What did this guy want?

To present oneself. The Stasi intervened.

[Lyudmila] He's a French engineer.

Before his lecture, my father spoke with Hermann Dietrich

of a scientist who fled to France...

[Yuri] Ludwig Reinhard.

Is it because of him that you watch my father?

Go talk to him. To find out what he wanted.

[Yuri] He interests me, this Frenchman.

But like this? Openly?

[Yuri] Do as you want.

A woman like you can make all the men talk.

Who do you take me for?

[Yuri] Your hand is a little better?

You go-y.

[woman, in Russian] You can find our data

in a forthcoming article.

I am also available to talk about it.

Thank you for your attention.

(applause)

Hello.

I work with Professor Golubev.

You wanted to talk to him,

but were interrupted.

- If you... - I wanted to congratulate him.

I can send him a message.

No. Excuse me.

Sorry. Excuse me.

Not worth it. Thank you.

(soft music)

- (small cry from Francis) - Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Run the water. Run the water.

You talked to him ?

The Stasi stopped me.

Yeah.

Consequence of Requiem's ​​defection.

What did the girl want?

She works with him.

- She can get a date. - No.

You have to stay out of the official circuit.

The Stasi has eyes everywhere.

We will study his movements.

We'll find the loophole.

Stay here two minutes before leaving.

But there is Lebedev's presentation on the calculation of trajectories

for lunar expeditions.

They have 8 kiloflops electronic calculators .

I have to be natural.

Yeah.

(intriguing music)

Your presentation was fascinating.

But you lied.

That is to say ?

Your calculators can generate more variables than you say.

A computer can control several stabilizers,

which increases the possibilities

without overload.

Your algorithm is an approximation.

Would you like me to reveal my research?

You might inspire some who would inspire you.

Are you from Paris?

Ludwig Reinhard, does that mean anything to you?

[Francis] Requiem, yes.

He went West.

[woman, in German] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome

the director of the Institute of Mechanics

and Moscow Informatics, Professor Sergei Lebedev.

(applause)

[in Russian] We have to deal with it.

Right now.

[speaker, in German] For our role model,

when it comes to the lunar atmosphere,

we discovered that on the Moon

as on earth,

all cold solids

come from volatile substances.

On the surface of the Moon, one square centimeter

releases a volume of 100 kg of H2O,

5 kg of CO2,

and 0.25 kg of N2.

[Ralf] Ralf Meyer, Stasi...

Mr Mareuil?

[speaker] These values

seem to match

to the thermal history of the Moon.

These components

were basically reheated

by a radioactive element.

(carries)

Jacqueline ?

[Jacqueline] Mireille sent you?

- Can I get dressed? - Lie down.

Lie down.

Maybe you want to get me in trouble.

I assure you not.

Your body won't lie to me.

It's not me who's pregnant.

It's for my niece. She is 19 years old.

I would like to speak with you about...

of how it's going.

She is in her 11th week. It's urgent.

She will.

But it costs 2,000 francs.

- I don't have them. - I say.

I can sell the medal.

I will say that I lost it.

It won't be 2,000 francs.

[Ralf] One of my men

saw you talking with Professor Golubev. Tell me about Ludwig Reinhard.

[Ralf] He heard the name Ludwig Reinhard.

He is a German mathematician.

[Francis] He worked with Pr Golubev.

I read an article about automating guidance systems.

I know less than you about him.

[Ralf] You spoke with Professor Golubev.

You followed him to the bathroom

to tell him about his presentation.

I didn't follow him. I was there when he came in.

But you knew that it is forbidden to speak to him.

(tension music)

(alarm)

Hum ?

Hum.

(carries)

[Yuri, in Russian] We need him released.

Release it?

He approached Golubev and they talked about Reinhard.

Want to oppose the KGB?

He's your spy?

A source ?

Do not disturb our investigation.

Listen...

If you want, I'll call my boss to talk to yours.

He is hiding something. I have a nose for that.

I won't stop digging.

(soft music)

[banker] 2,000 francs.

My husband sprained his wrist. He signed with his left hand.

[banker] For such a withdrawal, Mr. Mareuil must be present.

Ah !

Usually, that's no problem.

Yes, but the sum is larger than usual.

Ah yes.

I can make an exception and give him a call.

No ! No no.

No, he's on a trip.

[banker] He should come by when he gets back.

Good day, Mrs Mareuil.

Excuse me.

Since when do you take care of us?

Ten years.

Who do you think manages our account?

Who comes most often? Him or me?

The question is not there.

- I would like to close an account. - [banker] Mrs. Mareuil...

Mr. Mareuil will give you the closing form.

It is the rule.

If you want to wait,

I go to the vault.

(intriguing music)

Do you have fire?

4 rue Albrecht Durer.

Thank you.

(the music intensifies)

[in German] Come.

Come !

(rhythmic music)

Come.

This way.

Come, my little ones.

Here, my fat, here's something to nibble on.

I have some for you too, my daughter.

[Ralf] Hello.

[old lady] Come on...

[Ralf] Did you see a man?

Brown, blue coat.

[old lady] Yes, I saw it.

I show you where he went.

Follow me.

He came through here and climbed the wall.

- Thank you. - [old lady] Please.

[in German] Here.

[in German] See you at this restaurant.

- Thank you. - Thanks.

(upbeat music in the bar)

They kept you there all night?

They asked about Requiem and Radagast.

I answered what I knew.

That is to say ?

Their mathematical discoveries.

Guidance systems.

[in German] Thank you.

Nothing about the orbital bomb, the SDEC, the CIA or me?

They knew things about you?

Your wife ? Your son ?

Non.

They didn't talk about it.

You think I sold you?

[in German] Thank you.

[waitress] Please.

Have you met Frau Müller and her pigs?

If they had kept me, would you have left me here?

Yeah.

Many.

You were useful because you were unknown to the Eastern service.

Now they've got you on file and ransacked your life.

It's getting too dangerous.

We leave Berlin.

Et Radagast ?

These are my orders.

Your safety and the mission come first.

If the Stasi still has enough to arrest you,

you won't leave this country anymore.

You will speak.

And that will put everything down.

I just planted them.

They saw you hiding?

You're Mr. Everybody.

You are afraid of them.

Pack your bags at the hotel and stay in your room.

Tomorrow morning, we leave.

Eat. You haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

When you sowed them,

did you feel the adrenaline?

(someone knocked)

(intriguing music)

I'm coming !

(we touch)

Good evening.

Good evening.

Sorry to bother you.

I heard the Stasi arrested you because of my father.

Your father ?

Professor Golubev.

My name is Lyudmila.

Francis Mareuil.

For me, it brings bad luck

to shake hands at a door.

I skipped a cocktail party for the Soviet delegation.

Do you want to walk with me for a bit?

I never have the opportunity to speak with a Frenchman.

I dream of going to France.

[Lyudmila] My mother came from Manosque.

You know ?

The Stasi is watching me.

[Lyudmila] But we're not going to do anything wrong.

I'm leaving with my dad tomorrow night.

I said to myself

that was the occasion.

(intriguing music)

[Lyudmila] Have you ever dated Russians?

- [Francis] Yeah. Mrs Liukov. - [Lyudmila] Ah!

[Francis] My piano teacher when I was 10.

[Lyudmila] Are you still playing?

[Francis] I was pretty bad.

(she laughs)

When I stopped, the neighbors

offered me chocolates to thank me.

(soft music)

[Lyudmila] Sometimes I dream of crossing to the other side.

Live in France...

What is it written?

"Peter Flichter died here."

A young German who climbed and got shot.

He fell in the neutral zone.

Those in the west did nothing for fear of being killed.

Same for those in the East.

He wanted to join his sister.

Do you have a family?

I am married. I have a son.

[in German] Hey, you!

Don't stay there!

(barking)

Go away !

Go away !

(she laughs)

Do you have a family?

My only family is my father.

But he sacrifices everything for his passion.

Space, missions,

on the moon.

He is a man of convictions. A genius.

I feel like I'm the only one not admiring her.

If you want to talk to him, I can help you.

The Stasi will never allow it.

There is another way.

That is to say ?

Every morning at 8 a.m.

he is dictating mail to me in my room.

It's just the two of us.

Does the Stasi know?

[Lyudmila] I think so.

They watch his hallway, but no one accompanies him.

(intriguing music)

Where were you ?

I can see Radagast.

Thanks to his daughter.

Are you sure it's his daughter?

- Lyudmila, the pianist? - Certain.

In the morning, they are alone in his room, unsupervised.

He moves alone to his floor.

- She came to see you? - Yeah.

Radagast sent her?

I do not think so.

Why is she helping you?

They are alone.

The room will be bugged.

- I'll turn on the radio. - Yeah. We leave tomorrow morning.

Radagast is there, accessible.

This may be our only chance.

(he sighs)

(shout of surprise)

[Yuri, in Russian] Any news?

Tomorrow at eight o'clock here.

And after ?

They will talk about work.

And maybe even the German deserter.

We go in and stop them.

And you go back to your piano.

(heavy music)

(piano on the radio)

(intriguing music)

(rhythmic music)

(intriguing music)

Chut.

What is happening ?

We have little time.

Do you know the applications of your research?

These documents are Russian.

There are references to your work.

It was authenticated by Reinhard.

Are you not a scientist?

Yes. I develop rockets, like you.

In France.

The USSR has an orbital bomb project that can bypass any defense,

with a nuclear charge of 5 megatons.

They use your guidance system.

It's not possible.

These are fake!

Look at the references,

the dates.

Are they fake?

(piano)

[in Russian] Golubev left 8 minutes ago.

He's still not in Lyudmila's room.

[Yuri] And the Frenchman?

[Ralf] He left his room 10 minutes ago.

(alarm)

Yes ?

There is an elevator problem.

On ya my a micro.

(muffled sound)

The sound is muffled.

This orbital bomb,

I have no information on her.

- Can you access it? - By stealing them?

I will not betray my country.

[Yuri, in Russian] Can't you do anything?

[technician] Thanks to this box,

i can control them

and bring the elevator back down.

What are you waiting for ?

My colleague's security key.

Where is he ?

He arrives, by the other elevator.

[Francis] We want to keep the peace, professor.

You spent 2 years in the gulag for your ideas.

20 years ago.

Today, all we do is respond to American provocations.

Restart the elevator.

Alright, listen.

Think Cuba.

Think about it. We were at this

of a 3rd World War.

What do you want ?

Become aware of what is happening.

And then ?

Let's keep talking when you get back to Moscow,

to quantify the threat of this project,

prevent it from getting out of hand.

(tension music)

Keep them. Read them.

These documents are authentic.

This bomb isn't just a project.

It's already in orbit.

It's not possible. I will know it.

[Virgile] NASA has been following its trajectory since its launch.

Everything fits.

[Boris] You work for the Americans!

We can protect you.

If it's for the money, your prize will be ours.

Want to buy me?

Are you sent by the CIA?

[Virgile] We have to go.

[in Russian] It's fixed.

What happened ?

The Frenchman who approached me is a spy.

- You saw it ? - He told me

that a nuclear bomb is in orbit. If it's true,

the world has gone mad.

He asks me to spy on my homeland!

No way.

- Are you going to talk to the KGB? - No.

You don't have to tell them anything.

[Jacqueline] What you smell is the speculum.

I put it on gradually.

Describe yourself.

It's normal for your heart to beat fast.

[Anne] How are you?

[Martine] Yes. Sorry.

[Jacqueline] I'm going to open the collar.

Delicately.

Relax well.

(Martine moans)

The aim of the game,

it is to aspire.

Slowly.

It's going to be a little painful.

But it's very fast.

(she shouts)

It's infected! What have you done ?

- I'm sorry. - [Anne] Who did this to you?

- I took a coat hanger. - What ?

- [Jacqueline] Did she tell you anything? - No !

- I don't want to go to the hospital. - No choice.

If we don't clean up, you can die.

[Anne] Come on, get up.

[Jacqueline] Did you park far away?

At the end of the street.

[man] Here we go.

It'll be OK. Stand up.

[male] Mrs. Mareuil, is there a problem?

- Follow us. - [Anne] Who are you?

Follow us.

- Who are you ? - Friends.

Open the rear door.

(eerie music)

Attention.

- [Anne] Martine, I'm here. - [man] Hold it.

Start the car!

[Anne] I'm here.

How are you.

[man] Let's go, let's go!

We're taking you to the hospital.

I screwed up !

What is this story ? The bomb is in the air?

Yes. Radagast is essential.

[Francis] Something must be done!

Go find your family and your life.

There's a bomb above our heads?

It's more your onions.

(soft music)

[Yuri, in Russian] What did they talk about?

From an orbital bomb. But my father didn't say anything.

He didn't know.

What if he wasn't a traitor?

They talked to each other.

It was he who was speaking. My father was listening.

It's not going to stop there.

How long should I continue?

[Yuri] As long as it takes.

(intriguing music)

(soft music)

[Lyudmila] The Stasi is looking for you everywhere.

You came back for my father?

[Francis] A nuclear war threatens.

But your father doesn't believe us.

He spoke to the KGB about what happened this morning?

[Lyudmila] Non.

Your dream of living in France, what is holding you back?

You know it well.

(soft music)

Can I help you.

[Lyudmila] You...

Could you get me across to the West?

Me no. But the SDECE, yes. Like Ludwig Reinhard.

I am not a scientist.

[Francis] You can be the intermediary between us and your father.

There are risks.

I want to help you.

Do you have a phone number in Moscow?

In my apartment there is a common telephone.

70 Lomonosovskiy Prospekt. 05 67.

70 Lomonosovskiy Prospekt. 05 67.

I'll call you Wednesday at 10 p.m.

[Lyudmila] You swear to help me?

[Ralf, in German] The Frenchman!

(shout)

(tension music)

(fire)

[Yuri] Don't shoot!

It's closed !

[in German] Albrecht Dürerstraat 4.

(rhythmic music)

[US soldier, in English] Passport, please.

You can go.

How are you ?

How are you.

You have it in your blood.

Like your father.

I went to Radagast's daughter.

Virgil spoke about it. He is wary of it.

He didn't speak to her. I do.

She wants what ?

Go west.

She's expecting my call tonight.

Do you think it reliable?

The risks are on her.

He needs a code name.

What does she look like?

To... a Russian.

Matryoshka ?

Moon.

Moon ?

Why not.

Luna.

Luna.

Perfect.

(soft music)

(alarm)

- Hello ? - [Francis] Is that you?

It's me.

Did you come back well?

[in Russian] Did you get home okay?

[Lyudmila] Yes, thank you.

[in Russian] Yes, thank you.

You weren't worried?

[in Russian] You weren't worried?

[Lyudmila] No. Me, I don't count.

[in Russian] No. Me, I don't count.

I lost control of the probe.

She's going crazy!

[Lyudmila] If I gave you important information,

would you take me to the West?

- [Charles] We can't anymore. - Are you letting me down?

She crashed in Algeria.

[Virgile] Over there, it's the death penalty or life imprisonment.

Believe me, you prefer the death penalty.

Jump, the parachute will open.
