The Ninth Day Page #3

Synopsis: In World War II, after a period living hell on earth in the concentration camp of Dachau with other catholic priests, Father Abbé Henri Kremer gets a nine days leave to return to his home town for his mother's funeral. Along this period, the SS Gestapo lieutenant Gebhardt tries to persuade Henri, who was born in silver-spoon and member of an influent Luxembourgian family, to convince the local bishop to give-up resisting to the Germans and write a letter to the Vatican in the name of the Catholic Church of Luxemburg convincing the Pope to support Hitler and the Nazi regime. The ambivalent Henri questions himself and the bishop what he shall do.

we're contacting with Nazi,

this should have advantage

If we do this then the church

will soon have Nazi flag on top

Please forgive me,

I have to prepare for a Mass

What's our cardinal say about these?

He does not step out

of his room anymore

He does not want to have any

direct contact with any politics

As the symbol of against and protest,

the church bell has ringed whole day

Hitler accepted the requests

from the Pope

The request to give the special

priority to the priest inside the camp

This decision has sure reducing

the pressure for you right?

that's right! You should thank

the Pope once again

Before celebration today, I want to know

whom am I serving for?

The Name, The Job?

Jozef Weida

Bishop area, Czestochowa

you?

I'm the Cardinal Kozal

of Bruno Church

Next?

Armando Bausch

Priest coming from Luxembourg, editor

Ah, another form Luxembourg

You have a lot of people coming from there

little country but have a lot of mouth

Name?

Nansen clerical

Professor from Oslo University

Drink off! Drink all!

Drink off! Drink all!

You sure don't like our German's Mossel

grape wine! Get out! Go to the basement!

So? Hurry up!

The saint god father

kept praying for his followers

also pray for the priests

in the camp

the Loving Goddess Maria will take care of him

- How many people he saved by this?

but maybe after the Pope

changed his attitude...

we'll have more people died in the prisoner camp

- Henry, no matter what you have experienced

You should not give up

the faith to God

Some people keep silence

is just for help...

Help the followers won't make

the situation become worse

They give you a vacation

must be some reason!

one important reason is Your family

have a very famous fame in Luxembourg

Henry, maybe they'll do

some special use to you

what do you mean?

The church is facing

the tough challenge!

our attitude will decide,

if there will be more people's death

If we obey German within

our allowable conscience

we'll get more than we resist them

learn smarter, Henry. Listen carefully

to what Gebhardt spoke to you

our world is a lot more complicated

than your small prisoner camp

there, everything is exposed, have your

own rules everything follow the order

This vacation can help you to see

the whole thing by the extensive contacts

for an exmaple you familiar,

we're doing a saint and a meanful battle

I think personally

Amount us, all the great things

are being placed by God.

The sacred of yours, has nothing

to do with the Jesus Christ

but your Pope thinks further.

- If you see the 1933 agreement,

you'll see the signature from the Pope.

the things today.

You attack Poland, then Frence,
