I come up the stairs.

I knock on the door. She opens the door.

I am going to pull the trigger...

She manages to tell me

that she's not really an informer.

She informed on him,

because he has betrayed her.

He had promised to marry her,

but he was already married.

She was a lonely, abandoned woman.

She stood there and stared at me.

I couldn't pull the trigger.

She wept and wept.

I couldn't.

I peed in my pants and ran.

The next week she informed on two more.

I have sworn,

it must not happen again.

Why couldn't you?

I forgot that it's not people we shoot.

It is Nazis.

She is yours, Jrgen.

We must go.

If you don't come back within

five minutes, I come up. Ready?

I couldn't.

I only hit her in the shoulder.

I have never killed anyone before, Bent.

Sorry.

- Who are you?

- I come from Winther.

I'm here to deliver

some legal documents.

- May I see your badge?

- Yes, of course.

You have to be careful.

My husband is resting.

Do you want a cup of tea?

"Thanks, Bud Jonny."

The famous Soviet general.

I trained him myself, Mr...?

Christensen.

Svend Christensen.

After the First World War many German

officers tried their luck in the Red Army.

Germany was poor and lay in ruins.

The Russian officers who

are now fighting against the German army...

...were trained by us.

But you know that already.

You come from my friend Winther?

Yes. I was asked to deliver

these documents to you.

Thank you.

Is there something wrong with your hand?

You speak excellent German,

Mr Christensen.

Thank you.

I have lived in Germany.

My father sent me there.

You are in the resistance movement.

I mean you come from Winther.

You can relax.

I have no particular sympathy

for Hitler or National Socialism.

But you have taken an oath to Hitler.

- That I will decide with my conscience.

You are a partisan.

That's very interesting.

A soldier without a front.

Are you also a good soldier?

Are you prepared to pay the price?

- What price?

- What do you think?

Life.

You see, there are only three reasons

to fight in a war.

The first is career.

It is very common, but it

doesn't make for a good soldier.

People are scared of dying

and only think about the time afterwards.

The second reason is ideology.

Love of the fatherland.

It is more interesting,

but the dreamer cracks up.

He is not strong enough.

He is too superficial.

Youthful irresponsibility,

youthful arrogance.

Unless he is burning.

Fanatic, if you like.

Then he will be a good soldier.

- And the third reason?

- Hatred of the enemy.

Hatred seduces you,

get you to do things...

...you never would have thought,

you were able to.

Something else is hatred
