Untergang Der

00:00:20 DOWNFALL
00:00:24 I feel as if I should be angry
00:00:30 naive young girl.
00:00:34 for not recognising the
00:00:39 For not being aware of what
00:00:42 And especially that I went
00:00:46 Because I wasn't a fanatical Nazi.
00:00:52 'No, I'm not doing it. I don't want
00:00:58 But I didn't do that.
00:01:01 I also didn't realise...
00:01:05 that destiny would take me somewhere
00:01:11 But, nevertheless, I find it hard
00:01:22 The ladies are here.
00:01:25 It's confirmed.
00:01:57 'Wolfsschanze'
00:02:01 November 1942
00:02:06 Sit down, ladies.
00:02:09 One moment. The Führer is feeding
00:02:16 Can you tell us... How are we supposed
00:02:22 The Führer first speaks to you
00:02:26 And the Nazi salute?
00:02:28 That won't be necessary...
00:02:30 since the Führer isn't looking for
00:02:36 Act as normal and relaxed
00:02:39 I'll see if
00:02:45 Mein Führer,
00:03:06 Thank you for coming
00:03:12 Sometimes, during a war,
00:03:19 Can I ask your name?
00:03:23 Where are you from?
00:03:26 And what is your name?
00:03:30 No need for that.
00:03:33 Frankfurt am Main, mein Füh...
00:03:37 Hannah Potrovsky,
00:03:40 In Pankow, to be precise.
00:03:43 Hedwig Brandt
00:03:47 And you are?
00:03:54 A lady from Munich.
00:04:02 Shall we start then,
00:04:16 My Blondi won't hurt you.
00:04:20 She's much smarter
00:04:28 First, sit down, please.
00:04:32 Don't be nervous. I make
00:04:36 You won't make nearly as many.
00:04:48 You're very young.
00:04:50 How old are you?
00:04:59 My German fellow-countrymen
00:05:04 ...fellow party members.
00:05:05 It is, I think, rather special...
00:05:10 that, after 20 years of service, a man still
00:05:19 ...and that in all those 20 years, his program
00:05:40 I suggest we try it again.
00:05:56 I did it.
00:06:14 Berlin - 20 April 1945
00:06:17 two and a half years later
00:06:19 Take cover.
00:06:24 Hurry. Continue.
00:06:30 Take cover.
00:06:43 That's artillery fire.
00:06:45 Don't be silly.
00:06:49 You're right. These are no planes,
00:06:53 It's the Russians.
00:07:01 Where is that cannon fire coming from?
00:07:04 Happy Birthday,
00:07:07 The city centre of Berlin
00:07:10 Grenades have hit near the Brandenburger
00:07:14 Where did they come from?
00:07:17 I have Koller on the line.
00:07:20 Koller, do you know Berlin
00:07:25 No.
00:07:28 No, I'm in Wildpark-Werder.
00:07:32 Apparently, the Russians captured
00:07:35 The enemy has no railway
00:07:39 It's not long-range artillery.
00:07:41 The anti-aircraft defence near the Zoo-Bunker
00:07:46 ... cm calibres. The Russians have
00:07:50 That's only 12 kilometres from the centre.
00:07:55 They should hang the entire
00:08:00 This is unheard-of.
00:08:03 The Russians are at 12 kilometres
00:08:07 Nobody told me anything.
00:08:10 Maybe it's long-range artillery,
00:08:13 That railway bridge over the Oder...
00:08:22 That Himmler,
00:08:25 Party bosses, everywhere.
00:08:33 The Führer starts
00:08:36 Berlin as a front city.
00:08:40 If the Führer stays here,
00:08:44 We have to talk him out of it.
00:08:47 He's the only diplomat
00:08:51 Hewel tried everything.
00:08:55 Talk to your sister-in-law, then.
00:08:58 Why not? You're married
00:09:03 We must try everything.
00:09:07 You're still young.
00:09:10 Do you want to die here?
00:09:18 Gentlemen, the Führer.
00:09:30 Everything out. Quickly.
00:09:42 What's going on?
00:09:47 'Clausewitz' has started.
00:09:49 All the ministries and departments
00:09:53 And who's going to look after
00:09:57 Don't ask me, professor.
00:10:17 Professor.
00:10:20 I won't allow the
00:10:23 Is that so?
00:10:27 A good soldier can
00:10:30 And when there's fighting all over the city,
00:10:35 It's irresponsible.
00:10:40 As department head, I
00:10:43 But as a doctor, I'm part of the Wehrmacht
00:10:48 Keep that in mind.
00:10:55 The professor stays in Berlin.
00:11:02 We're leaving.
00:11:16 Everything for Germany.
00:11:20 Führer, I...
00:11:24 They're in such a hurry
00:11:27 The brown nosing is the worst.
00:11:30 They say 'Sieg Heil'. but they think
00:11:37 Mein Führer, I beg you: Leave Berlin.
00:11:43 Too late?
00:11:46 Hewel, come here for a moment.
00:11:48 I'm sure you agree we should contact
00:11:53 ...and start conducting politics.
00:11:58 Politics?
00:12:02 I'm fed up with it.
00:12:07 When I'm dead, you'll have plenty
00:12:11 It's good, dear Himmler.
00:12:17 It's good.
00:12:41 He has no strength left.
00:12:44 What did you expect from a
00:12:48 Seriously, though, Fegelein.
00:12:52 Berlin will fall in a couple of days.
00:12:55 When the Führer's dead, who will
00:12:59 Why do you think they'll
00:13:03 The Nazi state and my SS are needed
00:13:07 One hour with Eisenhower
00:13:10 The first contact has been made.
00:13:14 Fegelein, I have other concerns.
00:13:17 Should I give Eisenhower the Nazi salute
00:13:28 Look at that.
00:13:33 The best guests
00:13:35 Leaving already, gentlemen?
00:13:40 The scorched-earth order...
00:13:45 Come and see me one day
00:13:50 I'm going north to help with the
00:14:05 You know, Speer... There's an
00:14:10 It's easier to clean up debris
00:14:16 When the war will be over,
00:14:21 We spent thousands of hours
00:14:28 You're a true genius, Speer.
00:14:33 Yes, absolutely. Only you and I know
00:14:39 ...with only warehouses and factories.
00:14:44 This Third Reich will be a treasury
00:14:49 ...that will survive thousands of years.
00:14:52 We see, before us, the ancient cities,
00:14:56 We see the medieval cities...
00:14:59 ...and we know that the people
00:15:06 Indeed, Speer.
00:15:11 That was my vision...
00:15:15 ...and it still is.
00:15:20 Mein Führer, if you want to realize
00:15:30 Eva, you say something.
00:15:33 He's the Führer.
00:15:37 You must leave Berlin.
00:15:42 I can't do that, my child.
00:15:44 I would be like a lama priest
00:15:49 I have to solve the problem,
00:15:57 Speer...
00:16:00 ...what do you think?
00:16:03 You have to be on the stage
00:16:24 Reload.
00:16:35 Go away. Leave me alone.
00:16:37 How old are you? Twelve?
00:16:41 Why are you here?
00:16:45 Who are you? What do you want?
00:16:49 You should be proud.
00:16:52 The Führer will decorate him
00:16:56 You're still young.
00:17:00 I haven't had
00:17:02 Count yourself lucky.
00:17:07 We'll defend this position
00:17:10 Which position?
00:17:14 The Russians will come from two sides
00:17:17 We'll shoot back.
00:17:20 With the anti-aircraft guns.
00:17:22 The Russians will arrive with several
00:17:26 Do you really think you'll
00:17:31 We promised the Führer.
00:17:34 Don't you understand?
00:17:37 Coward.
00:17:43 Go away. Right now.
00:17:46 If you're still here when the Russians
00:17:54 The 9th army had to retreat
00:18:00 We won't retreat the 9th army.
00:18:05 Führer, then the 9th army is lost.
00:18:08 We'll push back the Soviet armies
00:18:13 ...with a ruthless, mighty attack.
00:18:19 Using which units?
00:18:21 Steiner will attack from the north
00:18:27 The 9th army is unable to move.
00:18:30 The enemy outnumbers us ten times.
00:18:33 Wenck's 12th army must
00:18:36 The 12th army is approaching the Elbe.
00:18:42 Then the western front would be open.
00:18:46 I think I've been
00:18:51 The Allies will see that only we
00:18:59 We have to keep Berlin and
00:19:22 Mohnke, you're here.
00:19:26 Today, 'Clausewitz' started.
00:19:31 You will be the commander of the
00:19:36 We'll fight until the last man, in Berlin.
00:19:41 There are still three million civilians here.
00:19:46 I understand your concern, Mohnke.
00:19:53 We can't spend any energy
00:19:58 With all due respect, what will
00:20:02 ...and the thousands of wounded
00:20:05 In a war such as this one,
00:20:10 The Führer has lost all
00:20:12 He's moving divisions around
00:20:16 Gruppe Steiner has been scattered,
00:20:21 But why don't you tell him that?
00:20:25 Something has to happen.
00:20:32 We're soldiers.
00:20:35 Does that mean we can't use
00:20:38 And that's coming from you?
00:20:42 I beg your pardon?
00:21:08 Where were you?
00:21:18 The most successful tank hunters of the
00:21:31 I'm proud of you.
00:21:36 This boy took out two tanks
00:21:40 His name is Peter Kranz.
00:21:47 I wish my generals were
00:22:00 Very good.
00:22:07 You've made history.
00:22:09 And when Germania will rise
00:22:14 ...you will be the heroes.
00:22:18 Heil, to you.
00:22:48 I don't know about you,
00:22:53 What will happen to us?
00:22:58 But everybody is deserting him.
00:23:03 I can't go either.
00:23:10 I wouldn't know
00:23:13 My parents and all
00:23:18 Don't get involved with the Nazis.
00:23:21 What should I say:
00:23:24 'When things went wrong,
00:23:29 Life will go on.
00:23:39 What do you think, Herr Oberst?
00:23:45 Go where?
00:23:49 Wherever they need us.
00:24:02 Let's go upstairs.
00:24:05 Come on.
00:24:10 Come, children.
00:24:18 We should have fun today.
00:24:26 Wherever the enemy goes,
00:24:32 That's the death sentence
00:24:36 No power, no gas, no drinking
00:24:41 If you destroy everything, our country
00:24:48 This order denies the people
00:24:52 If the war is lost, what does it matter
00:24:56 The primary necessities of life of the
00:25:02 On the contrary.
00:25:06 Our people turned out weak...
00:25:09 ...and according to the laws of nature,
00:25:13 They're your people.
00:25:16 What remains after this battle...
00:25:19 ...is only the inferior.
00:25:30 Come along. You have to dance.
00:25:34 Care to dance, Fräulein Braun?
00:26:02 May I?
00:26:05 What's wrong?
00:26:11 We have to leave Berlin, Eva.
00:26:18 Or else, come with me.
00:26:29 You'll die.
00:26:50 Can somebody play some music?
00:26:53 Dance.
00:26:59 Do you have a request?
00:27:28 Traudl.
00:27:35 It's all so unreal.
00:27:38 It's like a dream you
00:27:44 It keeps on going.
00:27:49 Gerda, I don't feel well.
00:28:27 Traudl, come.
00:28:48 I did not move...
00:28:51 I did not move
00:28:55 To the west? How so?
00:28:58 I'm at 1000 meters from the enemy.
00:29:20 And, general?
00:29:22 I'll be executed.
00:29:26 They think I moved my
00:29:31 Be sensible, general.
00:29:51 Schenck.
00:29:53 I'm under the chancellery.
00:29:58 I need help.
00:30:02 My assistant and I are
00:30:05 You're a doctor, aren't you?
00:30:08 Commandeer a car and
00:30:12 ...you can find, to me.
00:30:15 I'll do my best.
00:31:06 I need to talk to the Führer.
00:31:09 What about?
00:31:16 Wait here.
00:31:19 Your weapon, please.
00:31:27 Not here.
00:31:31 Guard post 2.
00:31:37 General...
00:31:41 Not you.
00:32:04 What's going on here?
00:32:08 You know that any evasive manoeuvre
00:32:12 Officers who don't obey,
00:32:17 What do you mean?
00:32:21 My command post
00:32:26 Continue.
00:32:27 Do you see this? I don't want you
00:32:33 And now, do whatever
00:32:37 It's best if you tell this to the
00:32:55 You can't pass, Oberst.
00:32:59 I have to get into the hospital.
00:33:03 There's nobody left.
00:33:06 And the wounded?
00:33:09 I'm going to have a look.
00:33:11 Be very careful.
00:33:16 See that? That's where the
00:33:32 May I?
00:33:33 He's damned stubborn.
00:34:43 I should have been back by now.
00:34:47 Drink.
00:34:50 You made a big impression
00:34:54 But you don't think Steiner
00:34:56 I doubt whether Steiner
00:34:59 ...but you probably know that
00:35:03 If Steiner doesn't attack,
00:35:15 The Führer was impressed
00:35:17 He puts you in command of
00:35:22 I'd have preferred it
00:35:47 Let them get closer.
00:35:50 Tank alert.
00:35:52 Take it easy. Wait, kid.
00:36:45 Is it German artillery that I hear?
00:36:48 But hasn't Steiner's
00:36:54 You have to go as fast as you can.
00:36:57 But the Führer has
00:37:00 Steiner will make
00:37:02 He says it will change
00:37:06 Everybody, but the Führer, knows
00:37:10 I even wonder if he believes it himself.
00:37:15 What does he have to lose?
00:37:18 I don't believe a word of it.
00:37:20 The enemy made a breakthrough.
00:37:23 They took Zossen and are advancing
00:37:27 They're at the northern city border,
00:37:31 In the east, they reached
00:37:37 If Steiner attacks,
00:37:43 Mein Führer...
00:37:46 Steiner...
00:37:49 Steiner didn't have enough force.
00:37:52 The attack didn't take place.
00:38:10 The following stay here:
00:38:30 That was an order.
00:38:35 How dare you
00:38:41 Is this what it came to?
00:38:45 The military, everybody lied
00:38:51 The generals are no more than
00:38:56 I don't allow that...
00:38:59 Cowards, traitors and incompetents.
00:39:04 The generals are the scum
00:39:08 No sense of honour.
00:39:11 You call yourself general because
00:39:16 ...where you only learnt
00:39:19 For years, the military
00:39:23 All you ever did is
00:39:28 I should have had...
00:39:32 ...all the high officers executed.
00:39:41 I never went to the academy.
00:39:43 But I conquered all
00:39:54 Traitors.
00:39:56 I've been betrayed and deceived
00:40:01 Such enormous betrayal
00:40:07 But all these traitors will pay.
00:40:13 They will drown
00:40:17 Relax, Gerda.
00:40:26 All my orders have
00:40:31 How can I be a leader
00:40:37 It's over.
00:40:42 The war is lost.
00:40:51 But if you think this means
00:40:55 ...you're wrong. I'd rather
00:41:04 Do what you want.
00:41:26 The Führer wasn't serious about
00:41:30 Frau Junge, Frau Christian.
00:41:36 Get changed. In one hour,
00:41:42 Everything is lost.
00:41:44 Completely lost.
00:41:50 You know I'll stay with you.
00:42:05 I'm staying too, mein Führer.
00:42:31 Now what?
00:42:33 Time to end this charade.
00:42:35 Do you want us to stop fighting?
00:42:40 The Führer doesn't want us to capitulate.
00:42:45 But he doesn't want to be in charge
00:42:49 Nobody can replace him.
00:42:53 The Führer's confused.
00:42:56 Great.
00:43:01 No capitulation. That was
00:43:05 We owe it to him.
00:43:08 We have to act now.
00:43:11 You're only looking after yourself.
00:43:22 Damn.
00:43:28 We'll never get out of here alive.
00:43:32 We've got to wait.
00:43:34 Even the Führer doesn't believe in it
00:43:38 Günsche says there's a tunnel
00:43:43 Why did you say
00:43:46 I don't know.
00:43:52 It stopped.
00:44:35 Traudl.
00:44:37 Look here.
00:45:00 I'm lighting another one.
00:45:19 Let's go down again.
00:45:50 Where do they come from?
00:45:55 They have to get
00:46:01 The Volkssturm is under the
00:46:08 I want them to go away from there.
00:46:13 I'll take the responsibility.
00:46:25 I think this is wrong.
00:46:30 Stop. Lights out.
00:46:32 Stop. Stay where you are.
00:46:35 Stay where you are.
00:46:42 Help. They want to kill us.
00:46:46 A Greifkommando.
00:46:59 Stop it.
00:47:03 What's this?
00:47:06 These men are on the run.
00:47:11 They're old men. Civilians.
00:47:19 Who's going to stop me?
00:47:24 Stop it. That's enough.
00:47:39 Dismissed.
00:49:20 This man's a doctor.
00:49:29 Can you operate?
00:49:35 Don't let the children
00:49:39 And not too much nightwear.
00:49:43 Herr Minister...
00:49:46 Can you look after them for a moment?
00:49:51 Brigade führer, what can I do for you?
00:49:53 Your Volkssturm is an easy prey
00:49:56 They have neither combat experience
00:49:59 Their unconditional belief
00:50:04 Herr Minister, without weapons
00:50:09 Their deaths will be pointless.
00:50:11 I don't pity them.
00:50:15 I repeat:
00:50:18 The people called this
00:50:22 This may come as a surprise to you.
00:50:26 We didn't force the people.
00:50:29 And now they're paying for it.
00:50:49 Eva, you have to leave the Führer.
00:50:52 Don't be stupid.
00:50:54 How can you say that?
00:50:57 I decided
00:51:00 Does my sister know where you are?
00:51:07 Children, your room is to the right.
00:51:11 Wait for me.
00:51:14 Hello, Frau Goebbels.
00:51:30 Line up, children.
00:51:32 Helga, come. Line up.
00:51:35 Let's make ourselves look good and
00:51:44 Do you remember the song?
00:52:24 The best thing to do is to
00:52:32 You won't feel a thing.
00:52:36 I want to be a beautiful corpse.
00:52:39 If I have to die,
00:52:42 That's definitely painless.
00:52:44 It paralyses the nervous system
00:52:49 A matter of seconds.
00:52:53 Can I have one too?
00:53:01 Himmler provided me well.
00:53:22 Thank you.
00:53:25 I would have liked to give you
00:53:37 Berlin, 23 April 1945.
00:53:45 Dear sister. I'm sorry
00:53:50 But this is how it is. It could
00:53:55 First of all: Hermann isn't with us.
00:53:59 But I'm sure
00:54:03 He'll get through this
00:54:08 The Führer lost all hope
00:54:13 Dear son. I don't know
00:54:18 Maybe someone will allow me
00:54:23 I stayed with daddy
00:54:27 Last Sunday, the Führer
00:54:30 But you know your mother.
00:54:33 I won't even think about it.
00:54:37 ...and with it, everything that made life
00:54:43 After the Führer and National Socialism,
00:54:48 That's why I brought
00:54:51 They're too good for the life
00:54:53 God will have mercy on me
00:55:05 I'll wear my bracelet with the green
00:55:10 After that, I want
00:55:16 Unfortunately, my diamond watch
00:55:20 I included the address below.
00:55:25 I want you to get it.
00:55:28 You'll also get the bracelet
00:55:32 A birthday present
00:55:36 I owe some money
00:55:41 There may be more debts, but
00:55:47 All correspondence with
00:55:55 I'm sending you some food and tobacco.
00:56:02 The cigarettes are for Mandi, the tobacco
00:56:08 I can't think of anything else.
00:56:13 Dear sister, I wish
00:56:17 And remember,
00:56:21 The warmest regards
00:56:25 ...your sister.
00:57:16 Inge.
00:58:06 Listen, Keitel.
00:58:11 Go to Dönitz and help him
00:58:15 Things have to be
00:58:20 I don't understand you.
00:58:22 We have no more oil fields.
00:58:26 It makes any serious operation
00:58:32 When everything has been solved
00:58:43 Any questions?
00:58:46 Good.
01:00:18 ...do you agree that I take charge...
01:00:22 ...with complete freedom of action?
01:00:26 If I receive no reply
01:00:28 ...I'll assume you have
01:00:32 I will then act on behalf
01:00:36 That's high treason.
01:00:39 Göring's concerns are not
01:00:42 If our communication
01:00:46 ...we'll be cut off
01:00:49 We won't be able
01:00:52 I think Göring wants to
01:00:55 I never trusted his clique
01:00:59 This looks like a coup.
01:01:01 The loser, the sponger.
01:01:05 A parvenu, a lazy bastard.
01:01:08 How dare he say
01:01:14 Hello.
01:01:17 It wasn't easy,
01:01:21 If I were you,
01:01:23 The Luftwaffe.
01:01:27 For that alone,
01:01:30 This morphine addict
01:01:37 And now this.
01:01:39 He's betraying me.
01:01:43 Me of all people.
01:01:46 I want Göring stripped
01:01:57 And, in case I don't
01:02:00 ...he must be
01:02:06 What's going to happen to us?
01:02:12 Frau Junge, leave from
01:02:16 The Führer wants to stay.
01:02:20 He doesn't need anybody for what
01:02:26 But Herr Goebbels and his wife
01:02:39 But the children...
01:02:45 I have always believed...
01:02:48 ...that there was a way out.
01:02:58 Come in.
01:03:02 Albert. Hello.
01:03:15 You have a fever.
01:03:17 Albert, I can't stand
01:03:22 Why don't you leave with
01:03:25 Leave?
01:03:28 I can arrange for you to be
01:03:33 You can hide
01:03:37 It won't be long now anyway.
01:03:40 I thought about it.
01:03:43 My children cannot grow up
01:03:51 Think about it. The children
01:04:00 If National Socialism dies,
01:04:20 I can't believe
01:04:24 Go now.
01:04:57 Come in.
01:05:03 I knew you'd come.
01:05:05 You wouldn't desert
01:05:12 I've come to say goodbye to the Führer.
01:05:18 Of course, you must go.
01:05:23 I took some furniture
01:05:26 I couldn't leave it behind.
01:05:29 Please, you must
01:05:34 That's true.
01:05:40 It's very important that you came.
01:05:45 Did he ever doubt that?
01:05:49 Lately, he often thought
01:05:53 I always said you'd come
01:06:01 I think he liked it that you
01:06:05 I also think it's best.
01:06:10 And, you know...
01:06:13 ...it may sound strange...
01:06:17 ...but I'm really happy here.
01:06:48 You came.
01:06:52 It's good.
01:06:56 Let's sit down.
01:07:14 I had great plans
01:07:21 Nobody understood me.
01:07:30 The opportunities we had.
01:07:39 Too late.
01:07:46 I can only be proud for openly
01:07:53 ...and for cleansing the Lebensraum
01:08:01 I don't find it hard to continue.
01:08:05 ...and then eternal peace.
01:08:19 But please spare the people,
01:08:22 If my people cannot endure
01:08:28 ...I won't shed a tear.
01:08:31 They get what they deserve.
01:08:34 They called this fate
01:08:44 For months...
01:08:48 ...I have to tell you this...
01:08:51 ...for months I have sabotaged
01:08:57 I not only ignored your orders,
01:09:08 I had to tell you.
01:09:19 This never compromised
01:09:35 So you're leaving.
01:09:39 Good.
01:09:41 Goodbye.
01:09:54 I wish you all the best.
01:10:17 Eat well, gentlemen.
01:11:14 Peter.
01:11:24 It's alright, son.
01:11:43 He has a fever.
01:11:46 Yes, but he's alive.
01:12:11 Loyalty and courage
01:12:15 Ritter von Greim
01:12:21 ...that the both of you arrived
01:12:26 Sit down.
01:12:29 We came under heavy fire, but
01:12:32 From there,
01:12:36 We flew in a Fieseler Storch,
01:12:41 ...and landed on the
01:12:44 Before landing, the Soviets
01:12:48 General Von Greim, I appoint you
01:12:54 I hereby promote you
01:12:57 A big responsibility
01:13:00 You have to rebuild the
01:13:04 Many mistakes have been made.
01:13:08 Life doesn't forgive weakness.
01:13:13 This so-called humanity
01:13:20 Compassion is an eternal sin.
01:13:25 ...is a betrayal of nature.
01:13:28 The strong can only triumph
01:13:33 Being loyal to this law,
01:13:37 Being loyal to this law,
01:13:44 I've always been ruthless
01:13:49 ...opposition from other races.
01:13:55 Apes, for instance,...
01:13:58 ...kill all the odd ones.
01:14:03 And what applies to apes,
01:14:14 Himmler made an offer to surrender...
01:14:16 ...to the allied powers.
01:14:22 Via Count Bernadotte.
00:00:07 Himmler.
00:00:13 The most loyal of my loyals.
00:00:24 Göring, he was corrupt.
00:00:28 Speer, an absent-minded artist.
00:00:34 But Himmler?
00:00:41 He must have told
00:00:45 Maybe even dead.
00:00:53 Leave me alone with Ritter Von Greim
00:00:59 And get Fegelein.
00:01:04 What? He's Himmler's assistant.
00:01:08 We haven't seen him for days.
00:01:15 Please stay here, Doctor.
00:01:22 You and Greim must go as quickly
00:01:26 Tell him to do anything
00:01:32 We've decided to
00:01:39 Thank you for this proof of loyalty.
00:01:43 But Himmler must die.
00:01:46 He's no longer privvy
00:01:51 Mein Führer?
00:01:53 Do you think I'll sit and wait until
00:01:57 This is part of a huge decoy manoeuvre.
00:02:01 ...to invade the Reich and they
00:02:06 But mark my words: they have
00:02:10 Dönitz is mobilising in the north.
00:02:14 We'll surround the enemy
00:02:19 From Prague, three armies will attack
00:02:24 I didn't know we still had
00:02:30 I made sure you'll soon have
00:02:34 ...jets at your disposal.
00:02:38 With those, you can make the
00:02:43 I kneel to your genius, at the
00:03:02 Heil, mein Führer.
00:03:06 You also request to leave Berlin?
00:03:11 Mein Führer, as you know,
00:03:15 ...that fall under the SS and Himmler,
00:03:19 Himmler is a traitor.
00:03:24 Mein Führer, as Reichsarzt SS,
00:03:29 Your request to leave Berlin
00:03:34 My family...
00:03:38 If the Russians...
00:03:41 You did nothing wrong.
00:03:44 Future generations will thank you
00:03:49 I take all the responsibility.
00:03:57 We'll talk about it later.
00:04:14 Gruppenführer Fegelein cannot
00:04:18 What, you can't find Fegelein?
00:04:22 Keep searching.
00:04:27 If he left just like that,
00:04:31 Bring me Fegelein.
00:04:33 Fegelein. Fegelein.
00:04:47 Daddy, why are you wearing
00:04:53 Ernst, is something wrong?
00:04:58 Thank you.
00:05:00 Brigitte is hungry too.
00:05:03 Ilse, you should
00:05:09 Thank you.
00:05:15 Thank you.
00:06:09 What is it?
00:06:13 What?
00:06:15 Get dressed.
00:06:22 Search the room.
00:06:24 Let go of me.
00:06:29 You can't have Hermann
00:06:33 There's no doubt.
00:06:36 What does it matter?
00:06:40 Think of my poor sister.
00:06:43 He collaborated with Himmler.
00:06:49 There's no mercy for traitors.
00:06:56 He'll be court-martialled
00:07:00 What's the point of that?
00:07:04 It is my wish.
00:07:19 You're the Führer.
00:07:24 Speak.
00:07:25 The Russians are advancing
00:07:28 There are no more reserves.
00:07:32 There is no ammunition coming
00:07:38 In the north, the Russians are standing
00:07:41 In the east: Lustgarten.
00:07:45 West: Tiergarten, about 400 metres
00:07:49 How long can you hold out?
00:07:53 Including the government area?
00:07:57 As a soldier, I suggest we
00:08:02 The battle of Berlin killed about
00:08:08 That's what young people are for.
00:08:13 What you suggest is insane.
00:08:16 Think of the thousands of wounded.
00:08:19 Mein Führer, the orders have been written.
00:08:24 The Führer cannot make a honourless
00:08:29 Even if an advance is successful...
00:08:34 ...I'll end up in another
00:08:37 I'd have to stay in the open air
00:08:43 ...and wait for the end.
00:08:46 Wenck is advancing with the 12th army.
00:08:51 ...and give the Russians
00:08:56 Wenck's an excellent fellow.
00:09:03 Immediately report to me the following:
00:09:10 2. When will they attack again?
00:09:13 3. Where is the 9th army?
00:09:21 You'll see, gentlemen.
00:09:26 Wenck will come.
00:09:34 Wenck will come.
00:09:49 I want to know if Wenck
00:09:54 It's unlikely that Wenck's
00:09:59 What's unlikely about the offensive?
00:10:04 Then why don't you tell the Führer that?
00:10:08 Do you think the Führer doesn't know?
00:10:12 And neither will we. I've been
00:10:16 Come along. I have to go.
00:10:27 Stop right there.
00:10:40 Heil Hitler.
00:11:29 Excuse me. I fell asleep.
00:11:32 Did you get some rest, my child?
00:11:37 In shorthand.
00:11:45 My political will.
00:11:49 More than 30 years have passed...
00:11:54 ...since I made my contribution
00:11:59 ...during the first World War.
00:12:03 During those 30 years,
00:12:09 ...out of love and loyalty
00:12:16 Excuse me. The shooting.
00:12:23 Centuries will pass...
00:12:26 ...but from the ruins
00:12:30 ...the hatred
00:12:35 ...who did this to us,
00:12:39 International Judaism and
00:12:53 What is it, Herr Minister?
00:12:59 Imagine this.
00:13:02 He ordered it.
00:13:06 I've never ignored an order
00:13:18 But I will ignore this order.
00:13:27 Please, Frau Junge...
00:13:31 ...I want to dictate my will to you.
00:13:36 I'm typing
00:13:40 Good.
00:13:43 I understand.
00:13:53 Mein Führer, according to the racial law
00:13:58 Mein Führer, are you
00:14:06 Can I see your identity card?
00:14:09 You're talking to the Führer here.
00:14:13 And you, Fräulein Braun,
00:14:17 Then there's nothing
00:14:20 I'm asking you now:
00:14:24 ...take Eva Braun, present here,
00:14:31 Do you, Eva Braun, take Führer
00:14:35 ...as your husband?
00:14:40 Then I declare you
00:15:21 Two men here.
00:15:25 Everything will be alright.
00:15:28 You must go to the Führer right away.
00:15:50 How long can we hold out?
00:15:55 The Russians are close. At the moment,
00:16:01 You know, Mohnke. The western
00:16:07 They'll succumb to
00:16:15 All the best. Thank you.
00:16:18 It wasn't just for Germany.
00:16:40 A message from Keitel.
00:16:45 1. Wenck's vanguard are
00:16:49 2. The 12th army can't continue
00:16:53 3. The 9th army is
00:17:16 What do we do when the last
00:17:22 I'll never surrender. Never.
00:17:27 I forbid you, and the other
00:17:44 Listen, Günsche. My wife and I
00:17:50 I don't want my corpse
00:17:54 I don't want them to get me,
00:17:58 I want to be burnt
00:18:05 Günsche, I want you to promise me...
00:18:09 ...that you will do
00:18:14 Mein Führer...
00:18:16 ...this is a terrible order,
00:18:46 Kempka.
00:18:49 Are you mad?
00:18:53 From the parked vehicles.
00:18:56 What's all that petrol for?
00:19:15 Come, please.
00:19:27 Should I tell the Führer
00:19:30 It's only my collapsed lung.
00:19:35 I'll die soon anyway.
00:20:21 Excuse me.
00:20:35 Over here, Herr Professor.
00:20:46 One moment, please.
00:20:57 Excuse me.
00:21:30 I'm sorry to interrupt
00:21:35 Mein Führer, keep faith
00:21:39 Lead us
00:21:48 Come along.
00:21:56 Join the gang.
00:22:00 Come. Have a drink.
00:22:04 Besides drinking, there's little we can do.
00:22:08 That's better.
00:22:18 Can we sit down?
00:22:22 Frau...
00:22:29 It's alright.
00:22:32 A pity we can't go
00:22:35 Only if you want
00:22:39 Fritz, control yourself a bit.
00:22:45 Take cover.
00:23:07 What are you doing here?
00:23:11 You can't right now.
00:23:14 Sit. Drink.
00:23:20 Let me introduce Frau Hitler.
00:23:22 So young and so many decorations.
00:23:29 Excuse me.
00:23:32 You can use our toilet.
00:23:42 If your hand shakes, the bullet
00:23:48 That's why it's good
00:23:53 When you bite through the capsule,
00:23:58 Will I have enough time?
00:24:01 The poison starts working
00:24:20 Tornow, you too.
00:24:31 Come Blondi.
00:25:03 You know, Frau Junge,
00:25:07 my husband for
00:25:10 But when I think about it,
00:25:15 Even though he likes to talk.
00:25:20 I longed for Berlin,
00:25:25 He only talks about dogs
00:25:29 I hate Blondi.
00:25:33 I sometimes kick her and Adolf
00:25:48 I think he doesn't want anybody
00:25:54 ...he can be so caring
00:26:00 And then he uses
00:26:05 When he's the Führer, you mean?
00:26:09 Come, let's smoke another one.
00:26:32 I'm sorry.
00:26:36 You have so many worries
00:26:41 Frau Junge, I'm giving you this coat
00:26:45 I like fashionable ladies.
00:26:51 What a surprise. Thank you.
00:26:55 I just don't know where and when
00:27:00 Please, try to get out of here.
00:27:04 Promise me.
00:28:32 Thank you. That was very good,
00:28:56 The time has come. It's finished.
00:29:38 The Führer wants to say goodbye.
00:30:10 You're the bravest mother
00:30:14 Führer, you made me the happiest
00:30:41 Salute my beautiful Bavaria.
00:31:06 Children, what are you doing here?
00:31:08 We want to see aunt Eva
00:31:11 Have you eaten anything yet?
00:31:16 Stay here, I'll get something to eat.
00:31:28 Comrades, this is the
00:31:33 Berlin is full of warehouses: There were
00:31:44 Herr Günsche,
00:31:48 Please, I have to.
00:31:50 Frau Goebbels, the Führer
00:31:52 Please, Günsche,
00:31:56 Please.
00:32:04 Mein Führer, Frau Goebbels is here.
00:32:13 What is it?
00:32:15 Mein Führer, I beg you:
00:32:20 Don't leave us Führer.
00:32:29 Tomorrow, I'll be cursed by millions,
00:32:39 Get up. Come.
00:32:43 Come.
00:32:53 Aunt Traudl, I like it
00:32:56 Why?
00:33:00 Can it?
00:33:11 Gotcha.
00:33:35 Reichsleiter, it's over.
00:33:56 The Führer is dead.
00:34:14 There's daddy.
00:34:27 Are you crazy?
00:34:31 Erich, shut up.
00:34:43 Stand back.
00:34:57 Come on, continue.
00:34:59 Continue.
00:36:27 No, don't.
00:36:31 Let grandpa go.
00:36:39 Order. Order.
00:36:43 Order has to return.
00:37:00 This way. We know the way.
00:37:05 Hurry.
00:37:12 I was on the side of
00:37:19 I supported the Bolsheviks.
00:37:28 Let's hope the Russians
00:37:30 We'll soon find out.
00:37:38 What news do you have, General?
00:37:41 Adolf Hitler and his wife
00:37:49 The new government
00:37:55 ...to start peace talks...
00:37:59 ...between our countries, that both
00:38:06 General, if you were me,
00:38:11 My government will never accept
00:38:17 Given the situation,
00:38:24 Surrender? Never.
00:38:28 Years ago, I conquered
00:38:30 ...and I'll defend the city
00:38:35 In the short time I have
00:38:38 ...I'll never sign
00:38:43 It's for the sake of the people.
00:38:46 This is crazy.
00:38:50 I repeat, gentlemen:
00:38:54 Send a message to Marshal Zhukov.
00:38:57 What's happening?
00:39:00 Then I must kill you.
00:39:22 How long does it work?
00:40:01 Children, the doctor has the medication
00:40:06 It's a bit bitter,
00:40:10 A sip for everybody.
00:40:13 Who wants to go first?
00:40:18 Heide, you're always so brave?
00:40:27 Have another sip.
00:40:31 See? That wasn't so bad.
00:40:38 Well done.

00:40:48 But it's not humid
00:40:55 Well done.
00:41:06 Helga.
00:41:10 I don't want to.

00:42:14 ...and there will be light
00:42:18 Please read that.
00:42:21 One day the lie will fall apart
00:42:27 Let's do it differently.
00:42:30 ...and truth will triumph
00:42:35 At that moment, we will
00:42:39 ...pure and...
00:42:44 immaculate.
00:46:43 We don't stand a chance.
00:46:46 How do we get
00:46:48 Doesn't matter.
00:46:51 We'll die.

00:48:47 ...to continue the battle for Berlin,
00:48:53 ...and further resistance
00:48:58 I hereby declare an

00:55:35 Most people from my group
00:55:39 I should never
00:55:42 I should have shot myself,
00:55:48 Eat something first.
00:56:46 You stay with the women.
00:56:50 Come along.
00:57:03 The Russians have surrounded us.
00:57:07 Maybe you can get through.
00:57:10 I'm not taking another step.
00:57:13 Think about it. The Russians
00:57:18 As a woman, you might have a chance.
00:57:24 Good luck.
00:57:28 When you walk past the Russians,
00:57:32 Remember that well. All the best.
00:57:44 The Russians.
00:57:58 Gerda, let's go.
00:58:01 I'm exhausted.
00:58:06 I have to give it a try.
00:58:14 I'll be alright.
00:58:28 Herr Doktor.
00:58:30 My comrades want to surrender.
00:58:35 The Führer's dead. Do you want

00:59:32 The last bullets are for ourselves.
00:59:35 Is this prestigious murder and suicide
00:59:41 We're SS officers.
00:59:44 Who agrees with me?
01:01:31 Come and sit down with me?
01:01:39 Why do you want to continue living?
01:01:46 See this?
01:01:48 The Führer gave it
01:01:52 As a last decoration?
01:01:56 A goodbye present from Hitler.
01:02:00 If the Russians get me,
01:02:07 Did he make you promise that?
01:02:12 Maybe he didn't want
01:02:15 ...to say anything bad
01:02:18 But, as a diplomat,
01:02:22 Who will benefit

01:07:15 But I hadn't made the connection

01:07:31 But one day, I walked
