That's a Mauser!

David, be careful.

What's that doing there?

That dates from the Occupation.

It's from August 8, 1944...

WAGNER, 8.8.44.

August 8...

That's today!

- Do you think...

- Lie down!

David!

Wait!

You're crazyI

He could have killed youI

I didn't think.

Was it Lucas?

No.

I saw a soldier.

There's something out there.

What shall we do?

Let's go.

Stay here, I'll take a look.

What are you doing?

Don't go out there!

We stay together this time.

Please.

Please.

Don't worry.

David!

LilaI

Get down!

Get down!

David, get down!

Get down!

Get down, David!

Emma!

You killed himI DavidI

It's ok, Lila.

It's ok.

- Listen to me.

- No, it's not ok.

No one will get away.

Look where we are.

We're being hunted like animals!

You think we have a chance?

Why us any more than the others?

Just lie down!

Wait your turn!

Give in, as usual.

- I'm not really surprised, Marion.

- You sound like Dad, no surprise.

Little miss perfect,

does everything right!

But you're not in control here!

Are you in therapy now?

If you don't like me leading,

that's your problem!

I never wanted that role.

You're the eldest!

We didn't see anyone die!

No-one!

You know what I did

when you disappeared?

I looked for you!

So that's what we do!

We have to believe!

Lucas... I saw Lucas.

At that window.

He was there, I swear.

Let's go.

Come on, Lila.

I don't know if I can make it.

Of course you can.

Because I'm here.

I'm with you now.

MUNICIPAL LIBRARY

He was watching us from here.

He must still be here.

- They've gone to the villageI

- We can't be farI

- We're already here.

- Welcome to Castle House.

- We can't stay here.

- I'm sorry...

Don't touch meI

You were outside?

Alone in this shithole?

Where did this forest come from?

- Something happened here.

- What do you want?

- Where's Mathias?

- It's from August 8, 1944.

Lie downI

I saw a soldier.

- Get down, DavidI

- You killed himI

No one will get away.

David...

Lucas?

Who did these drawings?

The one who's tricking us.

It's like a registry of births.

It's not a registry of births.

It's always the same day.

And the same month.

August 8.

Wait.

Ulrich Wagner.

There's a pattern.

The 8.

What?

The number 8, look. 1944, 1952.

Every 8 years.

Every 8 years, August 8.

Like today.

There are always 8 names on each list.

What's at the end?

Why 9 names?

Why are there 9 names on our list?

There are 9 lines on every list.

And the paper is lighter here...

There too,

there was a 9th name...

but it's been wiped out.

Why?

Lucas is on the list?

Maybe he's a victim?

Maybe he wants us to believe that.

It's me...

The next one is me.
