Hurry up! Faster! Faster!
Faster! Hurry up! Keep Walking!
Kremer, Kremer!
Come!
We were lying at Madagascar, got infected with the plague
At there, we pray with Latin
Everything is soaked by the water, everyday there is one man passed away
Hey! Hi! My Friends...
The priest pray with Latin
When captain yelled, yes, the sailors quiet down immediately
Because everyone missed their hometown
The hometown they dream to see once again.
Attention! Bertram come!
Keep singing

Hey! Hi! My Friends...
Hey! Hi! Hey! Hi!
Please take care, young lady
Take care, take care!
When captain yelled, yes, the sailors quiet down immediately
Come ere! Come here, you Poland priest pig
Can't you sing a German song eloquently?
Looks like I have to teach you the tempo sense, start from beginning...
We were lying at Madagascar, got infected with the plague
Everything is soaked by the water, everyday one man went overboard.
So, so...a man of God becomes arrogant.
The priest with egg-frying pan
I said sing!
Sing already!
Go, Hurry! Move on!
Stupid, listen to the order!
The secret allows us to announce,
that God ordered us in signs
that Jesus gladly went unto death
devotedly went unto death.
The blood of Jesus...
Do you really believe the God exists? Where is he?
Do you see Him around here anywhere?
Pull him up!
The blood of Jesus, in which we find...
salvation and help in need,
Born of Mary for us
became the Son of God and man together
He came to search, what we lost...
Whoever sings will be the next one on the cross!
...swore:
I will always be with you.
Your mother?
You're so lucky, I never knew my mother.
How long have you been here?
I don't know anymore.
Follow up! Temp! Tempo!
Step together! Move yourselves! Left, Right...
Left... Left... Left...
Tempo! Left... Left...
No. 25639!

Get out of here
Walking so slow!
Be quick!
Come here, come here! You priest pig!

How much in total? 30 Mark and 50 Cent, Charging leader sir!
It's enough for the trip to Luxembourg isn't it?
You're freed

Pig priest
Mr. Kremer?
Please step in.
Welcome to Luxembourg! Please allow me to introduce myself,
Untersturmführer, Gebhardt.
You want go back with your family?
Saarbrücker street, please.
Be at Pully Villa tommorow at 10. We have a few things to discuss.
Mr. Kremer!
I judge you will be punctual.
Henry!
Henry...
Oh my god!
How do you find us!?
Ah...
We had to leave our house.
Now it is the SS.
Henry!
Roger...
Raymond
Hurry, sit down!
Where is mother?
No one told you?
Our mother is dead.
These shoes are too small
but how about this?
Credentials! I'm here for Mr. Gebhardt
Upstairs, turn left
Luxembourg Civil Law administration Office of Untersturmfuher Gebhardt.
I'm very sorry, he is in the interrogation hello, Mr. Kremer
Priest!
Fr. Kremer Ok, please come in!
Hello, Mr. Kremer
So, you don't want to take off your overcoat?
Good morning
Have you had enough rest from your journey?
My heartfelt condolences about your mother's passing away.
She had been here with me often and she she interceded much for you.
Yes, Please put the call through to the Commendant of Dachau.
"Dear Mother, I'm here, and getting used here
To this raw camp life I can only answer an energetic "yes".
and will soon become a "camp pig"., not looking back, lamenting nothing,
diving head first and into the sauce!"
- This is the last letter for you in the concentration camp - what do you mean by that?
Why must one become a camp pig?
Heil, Hitler... yes, thank you
It's about the prisoner 25639.9
No, he has arrived well but sadly a mistake occured.
Mr. Kremer is not freed, he just got a vacation.
Yes, 9 days precisely.
and only one rule: Should Mr. Kremer try to escape
all the imprisoned Luxembourg priests in the cell block will be shot. Without exception
Long live! Hitler!
I'm sorry, this was the condition of the RSHA.
Normally I dont have to agree with all that is decided there.
You have me to thank for your vacation. I thought the circumstances called for
you to be able to say goodbye to your mother.
Please.
You were arrested at the French border because of anti-German activity.
Please! You had been working for French resistance..
worked against the government with the "French Luxembourg Mission"
and sabbotaged the German construction in Luxembourg. Correct?
Mr. Kremer
You wrote a very eloquent tract,
in which you polemisized the racial laws.
You were correct. Jesus was also Jewish
But one who endeavored to overcome the Jewishness in him.
If I may briefly repeat, That we owe an Arian Jesus Christ.
Through Him, we know what we must guard ourselves from.
Namely from Jewry as possible in us.
Even if only myself to defend the Jewish, I fight for the work of the Lord.
Don't you want one? Ah!
But a Praline this you can't resist!
You over exagerated. Absolutely not! You did!
You are so slow.
but now I jumped over!
What? Is he on time?
Punctual to the minute. People say what they want about the priests,
the have discipline. Do not underestimate him.
- He enjoys the trust of the Curia. - There must be a good reason.
He is a protoge of the bishop, his family is also very well known
The Church is a great house, and Luxembourg is just a little stone in the wall.
If we can breeak it out, the wall will collapse.
- But what if Kremer flees? - He won't!
He knows exactly that the consequences would be for his Concentration Camp brothers.
- but weatheer he will work with us? - Province Political Party Leader, there is rumor...
tha the Pope will be soon announce a decision on the Jewish question.
We should be prepared The Pope will still come to congratulate our Führer's birthday every year
and addresses him as the "Most respectable Mr. Hitler"
Right now he criticize the Allies bomb attacks on German cities.
I can't complain about the Vatican.
I expect a daily report. Goodbye!
Herr Untersturmführer? You're a capable man.
but if your plan fails, good relationships will help no more.
And in the eastern prison camps, competent people are needed.
But to whom am I saying this? You have already been there.
If this is only a vacation, must you return to Dachau?
One must remain at his post.
Remain at his post and build on God.
What is that?
I can't
The SS handles us priests better than the others.
Usually, 4 people receive one bread.
We get one for each 3 priests.
They want us to be hated by the others.
Are you going back?
If you can't eat now, then eat later.
If he tries to escape, we'll also be punished
What the nonsense are you talking about! His feet is so swollen that no shoes fit.
Where can he escape?
These things are from Raymond. Something should actually fit you.
I changed the waist of trousers to be smaller.
This shoes are from Roger, 2 sizes larger than yours.
Your book is in that basket, we could hardly bring anything.
Henry Kremer...
Praised be Jesus Christ.
In eternity, Amen.
Gerard Mersch I'm the new manger of the Diocesan Secretary.
Never before has a priest been granted a vacation from a concentration camp.
I'm very sorry, are you sure you haven't erred?
Next week, I have to go back to Dachau. We may not lose hope.
I must go to the Gestapo, I should be back tomorrow. Why?
I don't know
The Vatican commission considers announcing another policy.
They are trying to talk with us. That could be of use to us.
So that we will soon have a swastika hanging on our churches?
Please forgive me, I have to prepare for a Mass
What's our bishop say about this?
He does not step out of his house anymore.
He does not want to hold any direct contact with occupying powers.
As the symbol of resistance and protest, the great bell of the cathdral rings every day.
Hitler accepted the requests from the Pope
The request to give the special priority to the priests inside the camp
This decision must lift a great burden form you.
That's right! You should thank you Pope once again
Before I celebrate the day, I want to know whom am I serving here?
Name, Occupation?
Jozef Weida, Bishop of the Diocese Czestochowa.
And you?
I'm the Cardinal Kozal of the Church of Bruno.
Next? Armando Bausch
Priest and editor out of Luxembourg, Ah, another from Luxembourg!
You have a lot of people coming in the block. A small country but a big of mouth, eh?
Name? Fr. Nansen,
Professor from the University of Oslo.
Drink off! Drink all!
Drink up! Drink all!
You sure don't like our German's Mossel grape wine! Get out! Go to the bunker!
So? Hurry up!
The Holy Father kept praying for his followers.
also praying for the priests in the camps.
He asked all to pray to Mary. How many people did he saved by this?
But perhaps many more will have to die in the concentration camps
before the Pope changes his position. - Henry, in spite of all you have suffered
You may not lose your faith in the Holy Father.
That which many people call silence is an expression of his efforts,
not to make the situation more difficult for the faithful.
They give you a vacation... There must be some reason for this.
One important reason. Your family is well seen in Luxembourg.
Henry, maybe they'll have special roll for you.
What do you mean by that?
The church is facing a splitting challenge.
From our position will depend, if there will be more people will die.
If we come to an accord with the Germans in so far as our conscience allows,
we can get more than if we refuse.
Be prudent, Henry. Listen carefully to what Gebhardt said to you.
Our world is a lot more complicated than the small prisoner camp you know.
There, everything is exposed, have your own rules everything has its order, follows its way.
This vacation can help you to see the whole thing in a greater context.
Is the example known to you that we're in a holy and a deciding battle?
It is my personal belief
that the plan of God is working in you in our days.
What is holy to you is incompatible with Christianity.
but your Pope thinks further, if you see the 1933 Concordat,
that has his signature... In 1933 he couldn't know,
You would attack Poland, then France, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg.
Oh yes? The Pope already knew the danger of Bolshevism t that time.
He knows that our fight is just. You clammer only over your little
personal destiny. But in the East the future of Christianity is decided.
Look at this work of art. Look closely!
Our soldiers saved it.
The found it under the floor of an early russian monastery near Moscow.
Bolsheviks made their monastery into a factory and prison.
They have shamelously destroyed Christianity and its art.
The clergy have been tortured, murded and hunted.
These are Catholics. Sacrifices of Bolshevism.
These are your brothers! Look at the small cross on the corpses
All these happened just one year ago.
Can you imagine that we commit such barbarities?
In Dachau, the priests we given the task of running the creamatorium.
There are priests who have seen men under the bodies...
men who were to be burned that were still living.
NThe SS found this useful. One can give absolution on the way.
Mr. Kremer
You and I, we are brothers in spirit.
Your mother realized this. She was amazed at the icon over there.
She was a true believer. And she believed in you.
That you are important for the cooperation of the Catholic Church...
with the leadership of the Third Reich. You cannot deny this.
What do you want from me? From a priest pig coming from the priest's cell block.
The German bishops have already kissed the Hitler's feet.
After the war, the Catholic Church will play
an importan role in the new Europe. Lamentable things such as the priest's cell block
will belong to the past. Have you ever even once thought, Mr Gebhart
What will happen if the war is lost?
This is also our common war Mr. Kremer
This is a Crusade
We must support the weapons of our soldiers with prayer.
Otherwise, choas will break out over us. I pray for my brothers in the concentration camps,
for my family, for Luxembourg Germany has a great interest in the
dialog with the Vatican. even considering the voice of Luxembourg.
Only your bishop has refused unfortunately. Do you want me to act against my bishop?
No. Just bring him to reason. He does not do any good for Luxembourg
with his Cathedral bell. He is only playing into the hands
of those who want to abolish the Church. Heydrich for example.
But there is another movement in our party. People who want
to keep the Church as it is and go a new way.
In Russian, they need missionaries, to Christianize the people.
Let us speak in peace over this. The icon in your office...
It has no effect on me.
The holy Virgin Mary did not know, that the child in her arms...
someday would end on the cross.
Where will you end it one day, priest?
What will your mother say about this?
The martyr?
Read this
Please read it out loudly!
We, the bishops of Luxemburg, join ourselves hierwith to the goals
of the National socialists church policy
We announce this full of conviction and in agreement with the truths of our faith,
that there can only b a place for the holy Catholic Church.
These are on the side of Germany and it's leader Adolf Hitler.
Give this to your bishop.
In case you don't receive an audience turn to the Diocesan Secretary.
He's a prudent man, If perhaps it seems to lack in a little influence.
Your sister is pregnant, do you know that?
I don't know, that you knew it.
Goodbye! And think about it. Your vacation dose not last forever.
Pray "hail Mary"
Mr. Mesch... Mr. Mersch! I must speak to the bishop.
I'm afraid it can be difficult. He's in bad health.
It's about all lives of the priests in Luxemburg!
The bishop is on your side. Your sufferings are also his,
and the whole Roman Church. Please excuse me now.
Which side are you on? Does the bishop listen to you?
I can only give him advice. I have something for him form Gebhardt.
I can deliver it. No, I must talk to him personally.
I'll see what I can do to help you. Henry, I'll try my best.
Dear Mother, I don't know to whom I should confess.
I never new what thirst is. The summer was so dreadful.
They didn't give us hardly any water. This kind of pain was indescribable
that I can't even decribe it. We were holed up in a labor camp...
...working for a munitions factory
I don't know how to describe this...
At that moment, my heart halted.
I was half crazy at the thought, there could be water in that pipe.
You must talk to Henry, he'll listen to you!
Tell him that...
Tell him what?
The Gestapo won't compromise. What on earth do they want from him?
He puts us in grave danger. You must know this!
Maria, talk to him
What can I tell him? That he should go back to Dachau?
You want he lose his family just because us? You just want this, don't you?
You're pregnant! Don't pretend that you don't care.
Mother always said...
He is our guardian angel.
I really hope you can be like him, just a little bit like him.
Henry!
Henry...
Henry, let go! It's me, Henry!
What are you doing? Henry! Let go!
Henry! Wake up... Henry
Henry
Good morning.
Captain Gebhardt now has an appointment. You have to wait.
Good morning.
Please take a seat. What a pity, it's cold in this restaurant.
What would you like? You are my guest.
How about some scrambled eggs? They are delicious here.
I'm honored that you came, some coffee? Okay
I seldom come to Luxemburg. Our company is based in Lorraine.
For better steel to supply your weaponry production.
Only prepare breakfast for him! As you wish, Monsieur.
Our ambasador in France, Otto Abetz, he collects lots of information about you.
You've been to Paris to attend the economic conference of the occupied lands.
You were asked toraise production quotas.
And you said to Abetz: Mr. Ambasador, this is difficult for me,
because my brother's being imprisoned in a camp prison. Mr. Kremer, if it was not me, your brother
would still be sitting in Dachau. He'll be sent back there soon.
I'm glad to help your brother. He ccould play a great role...
in the Church. Only if he'd like to. I don't know thing about the church's problem.
I only know something about the logistics. For example...
I know you're lack of construction material, steel, aviation, fuel...
Berlin lets yourselves solve them alone. Perhaps I can give you some help.
You get a very high position, though you're still very young,
You have to consider those issues! Do you want to do business with me?
We come here not for discussing this. Thanks.
I just wish, that we two reasonable men speak with each other.
If I give the chief of the French Economic Bureau a call, tell him...
...what you said to me just now. Do you think what consequence it would be?
You'll put your brother right back into the concentration camp.
You're right, the eggs are truly decent.
Heil Hitler, captain, just a moment...
Mr. Kremer, I didn't see you. Please come in!
Good Morning! Please take a seat.
What did he say?
I didn't see him. I don't mean the bishop.
The song
It's my wife's favorite song, but we can't always understand it.
You know both languages, can you translate it?
What?
Beautiful memory...
Please wait a minute! The night full of bright stars...
umm, I don't understand
Charming memory...
Sweet dream... Sweet dream...
And moonlight shining on the surface of the ocean Thanks, my wife's gonna love this
It's lamentable that your bishop could not receive you.
He's sick! I don't know if he will receive me or not.
But nonetheless I know just what he'll say
Luxemburg is not a Judas's country
Do you know what my mentor did to me?
Judas... This phenomena of Judas has occupied me for a long time.
It's a fascinating appearence.
Jesus and Judas, they're like brothers.
They depend on each other.
But Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty silver coins.
But he didn't take any, he threw them away into a temple.
It implies that he didn't betray Jesus for money. Judas is damned, God forsook him.
That's what we learnt in our religion course.
However, I think Judas was devout.
Perhaps the most devout disciple of all time. Clear, he was an idealist.
Just like any Jewish liberator.
With the help of Jesus, he planned a rebellion against the king, the country...
against the high priest. Please say no more!
What are those theological discussion for?
I have no interests in discussing my belief with you.
Your holiday does its job.
You become more direct. That is good.
It makes your speaking vivid.
My mother wished me to become a priest.
A priest just like you. She dreamed of having a "Lord" in the family.
Her son in the clothing of the Church, that made her proud.
A priest is no Lord, but rather a servant. My mother knew this.
She was very devout.
But she's also just a mortal on earth.
She once sent me to a dance school to study.
I've tried my best to avoid becoming a priest, not for her.
I always believe that you can become what you want to become.
It's not vital whether you're in camp prison or not.
Please go and persuade your bishop. As Judas did to the High Priest?
Yes! Judas was an adventurous man. He wanted to change the world.
Hesaw an earthly king in Jesus. But God gave him another task.
Betrayal doesn't belong to God's holy plan. "So that the scripture would be fulfilled..."
The Holy Bible says. Among all the apostles, Judas alone was strong enough
to fulfill this task Without udas, no crucifixion and also...
no fulfilling of the divne will. You mean "no Judas, no church"?
You understand what I mean.
On the contrary, the bishop doesn't understand these new thoughts.
Judas' deed allowed the redemption Think about it.
It could be a great spiritual experience for you.
It has changed me alot.
Praised be Jesus Christ.
in eternity, amen. Hail Hitler.
Henry, get in.
You must leave quickly! Come to Paris with me. You can hide there...
...and continue working for the resistance. Or you can go to Geneva, I can help you.
People from the red cross. I can't abandon you.
Listen, you're bluffing now!
You lost the car? He should explain that to me personally.
Lost? We tracked them down all the way to the stronghold.
Army trucks crossed the road, we had to stop. When the road was opened, it was too late.
I have your personal assurance!
Stop! I'll take you to a safe place in despite of you like it or not
You must stop.
Are you insane? Yes, I am insane! I am crazy
A concentration camp prisoner on vacation, the Gestapo care for him with cigarettes and cagnac!
Do you know what they want from me? They want to destroy my belief!
They want me to betray my church. Without Judas, no Christianity, clear?
Only the strong one can survive the concentration camp. Only the cunning man, who can do everything...
and find a solution for all. Men like you! Two weeks,
You'll need a contact in the kitchen who can provide you with food.
You will know how people die in a labor camp after four weeks.
Yes Roger, So as not to get lost, you may only think of yourself.
You could do that. Not I.
What's going on?
Leave my house immediately!
What are you looking for?
Who are you? Your hurting me!
And? No one else.
Where's your brother?
I warn you, tell us whatever you know at once
If he gets away, I'll arrest you. Tell us everything!
I don't know where he is.
Arrest her!
Let me put on my overcoat.
There's no need for you anymore. Leave.
How can you do this to my sister, my brother and my sister's husband?
Isn't it enough that you have me? Must our whole family go to the concentration camp?
What are you worried about actually? Before me, my relatives?
Or the whole Luxemburg?
I'm dreadful sorry for bringing so much trouble to you.
You're my brother!
I thought you went to Paris with Roger.
He went there alone.
We parted.
Dear mother
The following night I could only think of one thing: the water...
Stand still prisoner!
Take off your hat!
Number off!
I keep asking myself whether I should share this with my brothers.
Or just tell Nansen, who's the weakest among us.
I pray to God, but the pain of thirst is stronger than anything.
The next day I was in the celler again.
There's not much water. But for one it's so much.
Brackish and warm, a little bit salt. It's so wonderful.
It moistens my dry lips, it's so tasteful. Kremer?
Go back to your row. The chief warden's looking for you.
At that moment I comprehended I was a sinner.
I was a base pitiable sinner.
Water, water! Don't give up, listen, Don't give up!
I'm not gonna make it! God lays heavy tests on us.
But we will survive. It's ok...
God has left us.
Kremer
Father, forgive me. Father, forgive me. Only this, over and over.
Mother, forgive me
Yes, I survived.
Not Nansen.
I don't know and will never learn, if that water, that I didn't share,
would have given him enough strength to survive.
Since then, I see his face every night.
every step, then I go over to his ashes.
Why don't say something?
That you believe, that you made it, that you feel so...
Don't let that bother you.
And he didn't blame you either.
All what is announced in the encyclicle "Mit brennender Sorge".
is enterered.
National socialsim is proudly fallen away from Jesus Christ.
Race and blood ae dvinized.
Please believe me.
To gladly I would have embraced you on the fist day Fr. Kremer.
But if he comes in Gebhardt's service I cannot receive him.
Even for his sake.
This is an announcement which the Vatican sends to the Berlin Reich Security Office HQ.
For seeking for building a new type of European church policy.
Refuisng this dialog could bring troubles to Luxembourg.
If only there was one Catholic voice in Luxembourg,
that greeted that Chirch policies of the Naziz, Berlin would have reached its goal.
A wedge between us and Rome! I said exactly that to Kremer.
But as bishop, you have a much greater theater.
When does the so-called holiday of Fr. Kremer end?
In three days.
What's your opinion? Is it only an uncertain destiny of the priest?
Or is it about something other?
It is nothing, of which you can help me...
Excellence.
Please come in.
Do you have any thing for me to share with your bishop?
No?
Then please be more! You don't come here for relaxation.
You can go back today! Yes, Yes, a sick man.
I hope he die as soon as possible. It would settle everything with the Diocesan Secratary.
This sow priest in his habit!
Sow priest? He's the spiritual leader of Luxemburg.
It makes me nauseaus that you continually hide behind your Bishop!
Do I hide some behind Himmler? You and I!
Or perhaps is there someone else in the room? I wnat to know what you are thinking.
Well open yur mouth.
I think you have no idea...
what happens with the preisoners who are deported under yor orders.
You think you know what a concentration camp is simply because you speak with the commandant!
You dare to do this? Where a hundered thousand German soldiers in the east die a sacrificial death?
At the command of the Führer! Who was sent to us by God!
Why didn't you become a priest?
You finally asked the right question.
A glass of water?
I've read your doctorial thesis, it's not bad.
proving the existance of God with the help of the Aborigines.
Observant. You should throw a boomerang better than these bushmen.
Yes.
It's a philosophical sport.
One throws something away, and yet it comes back...
Mister Gebhardt, the bishop won't receive me.
Even if he does, he'll never agree to sign. Never
Forget the bishop. Come.
Write this down: Luxemburg belongs to the Greater Germany.
One country, one Catholic Church. German church policy...
doesn't strike at the Vatican. The Catholic priests of Luxemburg support this policy.
You, Fr. Kremer announce it publicly.
You condemn the position of the bishop. Formulate this by tommorow.
As I wore the black robe of the theologian two days before priestly ordination...
I traded it for the black uniform, this was my rebellion against God.
Yes
I am an ordained deacon.
BUt could I have changed the world as a priest? No.
Can I make this world a better place? Hardly But in the party of our Führer,
in which a clear vision rules, I feel needed.
There I can turn on the wheel of history. And innerly am I for the longest...
turned back to God. My faith gives me the strength to fulfill my task.
Judas...
Thats who you are. Ach, cease this.
I actually thought that you comprehended the true spirit of Judas.
If you hadn't drunk the water, perhaps you would have been among those
who went with doubt before the fence. But you have made your decision.
You betrayed your brothers in order to survive.
You finally give this life a sense.
If I do what you desire, what would happen to my brothers in the concentration camp?
You don't believe in a divine justice anymore?
Everyone cooperate with us will be set free from Dachau on that day,
in which he collaborates? Yes
you should write for living, not for dead
your fate is on your hand I am waiting for your compelling report
on the same literary level of your incitments against the racial laws.
Heny... Excuse me.
Go ahead, I wait here
In Dachau we only had one minute a day to excrete. If you couldn'y do it,
it could mean his death.
Bausch is the best among us. He can go in 10 seconds.
why didn't you go to Switzerland?
We will help you
Raymond knew a guy of Germany Railroad, please try it
You still have friend at Lake Constance. You can hide over there for a couple days
and then go by barge by night and fog to the other shore into Switerland.
I am sorry to bother so earlier is the Father Kremer here? Yes
Henry, do you think I am a bad man, right?
No
but a coward?
Sometimes people have no choice but to be a coward.
Trust me, I knew that exactly.
Since you have been here I have been been asking myself why has the Lord...
not given me courage? But this is not given to all.
You must stand by your bishop, and you carry the responsibility...
for the whole church of Luxembourg. I have no right to judge you.
The bishop is waiting for us
Even I have a family.
And sometimes I think of them more than church
me too
Father, I am delighted to see oyu.
I am glad to see you too. Good, you are better.
It was a diplomatic illness.
Please Father, sit down.
I am in avery difficult position. I must make a decision.
Mr. Mersch has told me. I will not make suggestions to you.
But as a priest you know very well
In emergencies, one listens to the voice his conscience.
Examine your consicence and trust in prayer.
Allow yourself to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Forgive me, I have asked my conscience.
I have continually prayed to the Lord, but have received no answer.
I could come to you with anything. Excellence. Alaways. I need you!
And you refuse me your advice? Please try to understand me...
Your brothers in Dachau carry the cross. That is not metaphor, they...
carry the cross!
There in the place where I came from, there is no God.
I have never been off this house since the beginning of the occupation.
I have never had conversation with the chief of staff of the occupied army
Yes, I allow the cathedral bells to ring, and the Luxembourgers...
understand the message well. Our churches are overflowing.
Perhaps the Masses are full...
I don't want to know what task or message Gebhardt gave you.
He wants to use you for his purposes.
But he can only do that if you doubt in the Church.
I have never doubted in the Church. But sometimes the Holy Father.
do you know every thing happened in Holland?
The nazis decided o deport non-arian Christians.
Dejong, the Archbishop of Utrect did not want to have a run in with them.
He published a pastoral letter. Based on this they deported...
all Christian of non-Aryan from Westerbourg. Over 40,000!

The whole time I have asked myself, Why me and not the Diocesan Secratary?
There is a wise man. You said so yourself.
But...
He lacks something.
He was never in a concentration camp.
What can the criminal want of his victim?
Not the crime?
what do you see in the concentration camp in the East?
Tempo, Tempo!
