Escape From Sobibor Page #3

- At home.

- We raised rabbits and chickens.

My mother sold them at the market.

- You have a new job.

- Oberkapo, show her.

- Come.

Bit of advice. Don't get Wagner angry.

These Nazis can be madmen. He is the worst.

- What is your name?

- Luka.

Luka. Well, Luka the woman who tended the

rabbits twisted her back a few days ago.

We haven't seen her since.

Sergeant Wagner arranged that.

The rabbits are food for the SS.

They love their Hasen-Pfeffer.

You'd better know what you are doing.

- Oberkapo? Does that mean you

are in charge of all the capos?

- Yes.

- Are you Jewish?

- All the capos are.

There are only Jews here.

- A Jew and you work for the Nazis?

- I have no more choice than you do.

- But you carry a whip.

Choose your clothes!

- Esther! Kapo!

- If they catch you with that, you're dead.

And they'll kill me too. So

don't risk my life for me.

I am risking it enough already,

not turning you in right now.

I don't know how to thank you.

- Where did all these clothes came from?

- Quiet! No questions!

You have what you need.

- Get back to work, you lazy scum!

- Well said, Kapo.

Now, give me your whip.

Do your job.

Get back to work! All of you!

Go on! Go on!

Do you think...

- Where are all the women and children?

- Eda. Look.

- How did you find it?

- Put it in the soup.

Vodka!

- Go on! Stuff you faces right

in front of us! Shame on you!

- Big bad Kapo Porchek.

What guard did you bribe

to get food for you and your whore?

- For your own good, shut up!

- Give me that food.

I'm warning you, stop it!

Why do we fight among ourselves?

If we have energy to spend, let's spend it

against those who have reduced us to this.

Wait!

Here, let them share this.

Share it.

- Excuse me. Excuse me, are you Leon?

- Yes.

- I thought so. Samuel said I

should see you. I am Itzhak Lichtman.

- Oh yes, he told me about you.

- You're from Zolkiewka? - Yes.

- I have been there many times.

Did you know the Rabbi there?

- Rabbi Schmeitzher?

- Yes, he was a close friend of my father's.

- Did you know they shot him?

- No.

It's in the synagogue.

During the service of Yom Kippur.

I was there.

Let's go outside.

You found him. Good.

Samuel and I are forming a small group.

We have to select our people very carefully.

- We're planning an escape.

- An escape?

- For how many?

- We don't know yet. 10 people, perhaps

Whatever we say here

must be kept secret at all costs.

- I swear to God. I'd rather die

right here, right now than betray you.

- Good.

- Can I bring my wife and

my son? Can I bring him?

- How old is the boy?

Four.

When you saw your wife and child at the

train station last. Who were they with?
