In Tranzit Page #2

Synopsis: In the winter of 1946, in Leningrad, a group of German prisoners of war are sent to a female transit camp by the cruel Russian Commander Pavlov. When they arrive, the Russian female soldiers show the hostility to the enemies that have killed their husbands, families and friends; only Dr. Natalia and the cook treat the prisoners with dignity. Natalia has an agreement with Commander Pavlov to keep her former lover, who was wounded on the head during the war and is slow, in the camp instead of sending him to an institution in Siberia. Pavlov assigns Natalia to disclose members of the SS infiltrated in the group of prisoners. Natalia and the prisoner Max feel a great attraction for each other while the prisoner Klaus tries to convince Max to denounce a couple of prisoners to satisfy the Russian. Natalia convinces the businessman Yakov to organize an orchestra with the prisoners; they are invited to play in a ball, where the lonely women that survived the war dance with the Germans. After t

Don't tell me you suspect me?

I suspect everyone.

You save someone who knows,

he may turn out to be a war criminal.

You inform on someone else,

he may be innocent...

...Pavlov hangs him anyway

and you're not sent away.

And it's all so very, very logical.

- Out. Out!

- Out! Quick!

Out!

Line up!

Out! Quickly!

Is this all of them?

All present and correct.

When you were taken prisoner...

...each of you was ordered to

provide us with your full details.

Some of you did not.

Some of you lied, some of you

invented new names.

This was perfectly understandable...

...given the nature of your crimes.

But for those of you who took part in...

...the terrible actions of the SS...

...a new name will be

of no comfort to you.

You will be found.

And when we find you...

...you will be treated

not as a prisoner of war...

...but as a war criminal.

In 1941, in the occupied region

of Leningrad...

...the 8th SS Division

under the command...

...of a Colonel Heinrich Lombard...

...and with the aid of

a Captain Erik Neivach...

...committed certain illegal acts.

Together, they conspired to murder...

...Soviet citizens...

...men, women and children.

Name?

- Nehring - Arthur Nehring.

- Name?

- Nehring.

- Name?

Nehring.

Name?

Muller - Ernst Muller.

Why are you nervous, soldier?

He's scared.

We're defeated.

We're at your mercy.

So - we're all scared.

Yes.

Nehring, Muller step forward.

Captain Neivach.

It was not me.

It was him!

He gave the orders! The Colonel...

...he's the one you want!

It's not me, I'm innocent!

Colonel Lombard.

Rest assured, no-one...

...not one of you -

will escape Soviet justice.

Who's the prisoner

with the scar over his eye?

I don't know.

You don't know his name?

You should, for Andrei's sake.

On May the 8th 1945...

...Fascist Germany surrendered to

our heroic Soviet Army.

We, the Soviet people...

...have shown the German prisoners

great humanity.

We spared their lives.

We gave them shelter.

We shared our food with them.

We gave them the opportunity to

exorcise their guilt.

But some of them, because of

the nature of their crimes...

...remain the enemies of

the Soviet people.

They tried to escape punishment.

They were not successful.

The time has come for these men

to pay for their deeds.

We'll get through this you and me.

As long as we look out

one for another.

What do you mean?

The doctor has a soft spot for you.

She does.

Trust me, I know these things.

Breathe in.

Deeply.

Please turn around.

It's a bullet wound.

Anything wrong?

No, you're fine.

Good morning, doctor.

Peter?

Dead?

Everybody dead.

Dead, too?

AII.

My hands will never get used to this.

They'll have to.
