Jan
Josef
They sent for you too
What the hell is it doing about?
I was on leave, out of the blue they called me back
That's all I know
So?
The general will see you now
Stand at ease
Do you three know each other?
Uh... Kubis and I do sir, but... uh...
Alright, introduce yourselves
Karel Curda, sir Born near Prague
I was a customs officer before the war
Jan Kubis Born in Vladaslov
I was a farmer
Gabcik, sir Josef Gabcik Born in Pilsum, Locksmith
Good
The mission we have in mind
can only be undertaken by men with your qualifications
For the past three month you've been closely observed
You're here now because you shown us that you have courage
endurance and resourcefulness
I am going to ask you to undertake a mission
that regardless of outcome,
will certainly be one of the most dangerous of the war
I need hardly say it, you are liberty to refuse
Good
First, I am gonna give you some background information
And then I'll talk about the mission itself
The Code name is 'Operation Day Break'
Reinhard Heydrich came to Prague three months ago to take up his post
as acting right protector
for what the Nazis now call 'Bohemia and maradia' that means
he has absolute power of life and death over all Czechs
We believe if Adolph Hitler were to die
That Heydrich would become fearer of the third life
His orders, one to crush all Czech resistance
Two, to deport large numbers of the community to work
in Germany as slave labor
Do not underestimate him
He is not a barbarian like Hitler
He is the man of the highest intelligence
ruthless, ambitious and he is the only one
to whom Adolph Hitler really listens
Your rights protector
I have a petition signed by all the inhabitance
of a small village near Pilsum
Beggin you, sir to show mercy to the nine young hostages
due to be executed tomorrow
Not one of them is yet twenty years old
and youngest is only sixteen
The villagers do feel that
Rights protector says that whatever happens to the Czechs
or to any of Slav is of no possible interest to him
We intend to parachute you back into Czechoslovakia
To assassinate Heydrich
Heydrich is closely gaurded night and day
When ever he travels, he is escorted by highly trained SS men
So it will be up to you to formulate a plan and to carry it out
You must find a way to kill him
When do we leave sir?
You'll be confined to these headquarters until further orders
Thank you very much Good luck
Stand by Champs we are over Pilsum
Hold to your mama!
Stop
Don't try anything
You Czech aren't you?
Keep walking
Well, I am Czech too.
Move
Jan!
- Twisted bloody ankle - Can I have a look?
Don't touch it for Christ sake
That guy's the basterd who said we were gonna drop on a dry clear morning
Did you see Curda?
No, he dripped off on the other valley
He could be anywhere
Let me lean on you
Damn shame
Not so bad if they make us go after girls in Czechoslovakia
Even the snow tastes different
Safer though
You have no feelings at all
Can you manage?
Feels worse than it is, come on
Papers, your papers
Where are you going at this time of the morning?
To work?
Where?
Pilsum
Walk to work everyday
You walk two hundred kilometers everyday?
You're no way near Pilsum
Where have you come from?
Hands, Hands!
Come on!
Let's go
Bastard R.A.F.
Two hundred kilometers from Pilsum
Dropped in a wrong bloody place
God knows where Curda is
So now what do we do?
Lost the radio operator
I can't hardly walk
and the entire German army looking for us
Never mind where we are going we don't even know where we are
And you are a lot of use
No feelings at all
Christ, we are at quarry
Two men
I know you are in there
It's alright we won't harm you
I am comming in
Come inside both of you
Close the door
You can't stay here
You're parachutists
Look, we can all be shot
I've got a wife and children
I've hurt my foot
We need some help
But the place is swarming with Germans
Really
I haven't spoken to you
and I haven't seen you
Please go away
See who it is
Germans
Get into the vault
Parachutists Have you seen anybody?
Tell him you've seen nothing
- But what about... - Do it before he comes
Well, have you seen anything?
It's serious
Ah- it's you
What's going on in there, eh?
One of my men got hurt in the blast
His foot
Give us a lift to the doctor
I'll make it worth a while
You've been pitching some of your stocks again?
Better unwrapped
Bring him
Over here
Thank you
Good morning is your father in?
What's it about?
Emergency We're from quarry
This fellow's hurt his foot
Come this way please
Father, two men from the quarry
One's hurt his foot
Tell them in
Go in please
Lie down Take off your shirt and sock
How did it happened?
I have fell twisted my ankle
Can you move the toes?
That's good
I haven't seen you before, have I?
No
Does that hurt?
How long have you been working at the quarry
Well, about six months now
It's a sprain Nothing serious
The Germans are busy this morning
looking for parachutists
Yes, we heard
Guess they've been searching the whole area
I expect they were up at the quarry
Oh yes
Yes the quarry would be a good place for the parachutists to hide
But I doubt it they'll get pretty far
Not now
Now no one might shelter them
Not after murdering those Germans
Everybody will be too frightened
Put your finger there, will you?
Stand up
That will do
I won't hesitate to shoot
Sonia!
Yes, these are the other two
You will forgive me?
We have to make sure you're not spies planted by the Nazis
Welcome home
Oh God!
You bastard!
Adult education?
Come in Find a place
Good afternoon
For the benefit of the those
who are entering for the higher certificate,
today we are going to talk about positive and negative ileums
You managed to convince our friends and countries to your identity
Now you must convince us
Miles isn't it? Come a thousand miles to help
How do you mean convincing?
We want proof
We don't carry papers signed by Winston Church, if that's what you mean
What was the name of your commanding officer in England
Answer the question
We are Czechs
We were born here and we've come back to fight
and that's all we're telling you
You say you're Czechs
Your home where is it?
Vladaslov
I know Vladaslov
What's unusual about the bridge there?
It doesn't exist
Huh? Why?
It was blown up in 39
Anyone could know that
I was a member of the group that lay the explosives
There were three of us caught by the Germans, I was one of them
Anyone could say that too
Get dressed
So now you see...
We have both positive and negative particles in the vacuole
Karel
Where did you come from?
Don't ask me any questions I... can't say anything
I knew you'd come
I knew it I knew it
I was a bit worried I'll meet somebody else
How? I said I'll wait and I meant it
I never dreamed
How long you can stay?
I don't know
Day? Week?
I don't know
I'll come to see whenever I can I promise
See you in the morning
OK
- Good luck - Thank you
I'm Curda
Mommy, he's here
Good evening and welcome
Thank you
My daughter Jundriska
I'm Karel
Call me aunt Marie everyone does
I'll show you to your room
Thank you
Oh... There's just one thing
My husband works on the railways and knows nothing of this
As far as he's concerned
you are from the country and looking for work in Prague, alright?
My son, Ata
- Hello - He studied in the conservatory
I'll get you something to eat
Thank you
Oh... When you wanna contact your friends, you tell me
- OK - OK
There are eight streets leading off the square
Which one do you take if you want to go to aunt Marie's?
One by the clock
And St. Nicholas Cathedral
The next one passed the clock
Walk straight past
Don't look side ways
You've seen nothing
What's happening?
I don't know but we mustn't stay...
Heydrich!
Come away please You mustn't stand here
Josef
These are back up I don't like it
Am I not right, eh?
You are right
It's funny in English
I desire my language
It's late
I didn't realize father
All well with you?
As usual Is Karel in?
Yeah
Good night
You're very late, Carl
I had a hard day
Panic from the moment I went home
You should have seen the chaos
Cattle trucks
The Germans want every single one
Cattle trucks
God knows why
On top of all that we got an order for Heydrich's special train
He's going to Berlin in three days
Heydrich
I knew it
I knew it was something important
All those scooters always works
Well?
I don't know
I'm not sure
I have to think about it
Perhaps we should wait for the other parachutists to arrive
No We can't take the risk
We have to do it the day he leaves for Berlin
It might be the only chance we get
Have you thought what they will do
if you succeed in killing him?
We have our orders
People who gave you those orders are safe in London
They don't have to suffer what that are priceless
Think what they will do to this country
The world would come down on our heads
It's a chance we have to take
My God they send us children
Do you imagine we didn't think about assassinating Heydrich?
Why didn't you then?
Because we know the consequences will be
We are soldiers This is a war
If you won't help us we'll do it alone
We never said we would not help you
What do you want us to do?
Where is the best place to kill him?
It's comming
So our beloved furiortics takes time off
from the heads of state to welcome to Berlin
one of the man who was helping him in the glorious task
of governing the third life
SS Overcopen furior Reinhard Heydrich
Rights protector of Bohemia and Bohevia
Icefuraskis him love watches as the presentations are made
The furior and his two most trusted advisors
are to meet in secret conference at Ice Transli in Berlin
before the furior leaves for the ceremony at Vegetor's Garden
Decorate out victorious generals
who have brought honor and glory to the third life and to the furior
We should have stopped that other train
God if only we can get accurate information
We've got to send those man from London now
Wireless operators to set up a communications network
Lose of time and energy and thought and for what?
Killing
Christ we are young
We should be out enjoying ourselves
If it was peace time suddenly... now
What would you do?
I'd go out and buy a dress
A bright red dress made of silk
I'd see a good football match
Maybe get drunk afterwards
Parties, dancing!
It's bad luck to be over age
Yes, bad luck
Oh, don't bother to iron on the back
Nobody sees
Dance with me?
I... I don't know how to
You don't know how to dance?
No I never had the chance
Never?
Shouldn't you be leaving?
It's late
He's getting use to you
The messeges arrived from Berlin
which I've been authorized to translate
For the duration of war emergency
I hereby appoint you commissioner and protector
for all occupied terratories in Europe
Arrange your affairs in order to arrive in Berlin without delay
Adolf Hitler
- Thursday... Are you sure? - I'm sure
What's happening?
Next thursday
He didn't give us much time
He must give us time
We'll use one to the New Post
No no Curda is right It's too dangerous
That's for us to decide
It's not for you to decide
There are too many Czech lives at stake
I am gonna stop this
I am gonna notify London
London's orders were perfectly clear
Kill Heydrich at all costs
We've been here weeks
Well I think it's only in four days
Perhaps it's because we've been looking for a safe way
Maybe we're going to have to risk everything
What do you mean everything?
Something we've been thinking about for some time
He rises at 7 AM
Breakfast, bathes and he's dressed by his vallet
7:45 precisely, he usually says goodbye to his daughter,
gets into his Mercedez, which is driven by a Chauffeur Glen
When the car proceeds down the drive
he's escorted by armed troop carrier
one jeep and an armered car
The convoy traveles very slowly at about 40 miles per hour
The first part of the journey is through the country side
Tree lined roads and small villages,
along order of specially constructed to take him into Prague
He enters the out skirt of the Prague at this point here
Proceeds around the bended Vulsavitcha junction
And then enters Harry Channy castle at 8:05 AM precisely
And he's been doing the samething every day without fail
It never varies
What do you think Jan?
There's only one place
Here
We kill him there as he comes around Vulsavitcha junction
But he's heavily guarded all the time
He slows down
You are gonna stand there?
Pointing your guns a few feet from Heydrich,
in full view of his escort?
We'll never get away with it
It's the only place
It's suicide
Run!
Alright, you two!
Pick him up, put him in the back of the bakers land
Come on!
Be careful
Easy, easy
Vlavika hospital quickly
I said it was impossible we should never even have tried
It's on the radio he's still alive
They are offering reward of ten million crowns
It jammed
I had him!
Mommy, have you seen my bicycle?
Oh Christ, I left it outside of Kinsles
Quickly Jundriska get it and bring it back here
No I must go
No go alone Jundriska it's safer
Hundreds of splinters from the grenade...
penetrated deeply into the lumbar region
We removed what we could
but his spleen and kidneys are seriously damaged
But much more dangerous
is the fine splinters of horse hair
and material from the car appulsory had entered the blood stream
We may have to operate again
No you are not to touch him
But dear Frank?
The furior's own sergeons are comming Keep him alive untill then
But if blood poisoning sets in?
Oh father of mercy
We pray to thee for thy servant Reinhard Heydrich
We remember now who lord his qualities of his leadership
his sense of service
the inspiration he has been to all the people
And we pray
that he may long continue to lead
to serve and to inspire
Amen
It is only these two?
Oh... sort of...
What do you mean sort of?
Is it or isn't it?
How many will there be?
Three... four...?
Seven?
- We must go - Where's Curda?
He should have been here hours ago
We have to leave without him
But we can't leave without Curda
The longer you stay here more dangerous it is
You'll have to go
No I am sorry We can't leave without him
Listen to Janak
It's too risky
Talk to him, make him see sense
Nope, I'm with Jan
Three of us landed together we are gonna stay together
We wait
How long for god's sake?
We'll give him... 12 hours?
Now state secretary Frank salutes
He has vowed to root out the criminals
who are responsible for this crime
Anyone who assisted them or fail to give information will be executed
They and their families until justice is done
Now it is the turn of proud Heydrich
Her face failed to kneel and kiss the flag
She steps back as the six officers take up their positions
either side of the gun carriage
The coffin is raised the command is given
Escort comes to attention
and the sad prosecution makes its way towards the train
Karel
I never lost you for anything have I?
Don't go now please?
No I wouldn't
I won't ever leave you
Where he would be laid to rest in presence of the furior
Liditz
Liditz?
When he came from the office of the acting rights protector
In the course of the search for the murderers of Heydrich
it was found that the population of village of Liditz
approximately 20 kilometers northwest of Prague
had helped and cooperated with the perpetraters of this crime
Accordingly a detachment of SS division Prikcks Barugie
commanded by SS Overstune Van Furior Max Roshnov
was dispatched for Liditz at dawn
All the man have been shot,
women deported to concentration camps,
the children sent to appropriate houses for re-education
All the buildings of this village have been destroyed
and the name of the village removed from the land register
The village of Liditz has seized to exist
And it's name will never again appear on any map
Come I'll take you to the others
Father, I want to confess
I confess father to murder
Mass murder
The people of Liditz I am responsible
How were you responsible?
I killed Heydrich
What happened to Liditz is because of that
You are wrong
By that crackening, I am just as responsible
Simply for harboring you here
No, but at war...
War is the greatest evil
In war, no man could hold himself responsible for the sins of his enemy
But Father
I can't help I feel it
I'll give you a penance if it's penance you want
Anything father anything
Learn to forgive your enemy
Pray for them Jan
Pray for them
and for the souls of the departed
I forgive you in the name of the father and of the son
and of the holy ghost, Amen
Hi, Josef
Hello
- Hello, Josef - Hi
Isn't Curda with you?
No
We couldn't wait any longer
I've got some information
Yeah?
About the rights protector
Sit down over there
I got some cheese for you
Thank you
It could be one guess
Don't tell me don't tell me

Come this way
Name?
Karel Curda
Occupation?
I'm parachutist dropped by the R.A.F.
I understand you wish to make a statement
Yes
You realize that whatever you tell us
may not have the value you put on it
I am a member of the group that killed Heydrich
and I can identify the others
First you must give me an insurance
But before we make a... let's say bargains,
we must find out what you know
then we will see
Oh
Please sit down
Who are these men?
Can you give us their names?
Where they are hiding?
Josef Gabcik, Jan Kubis We were dropped together
Why are you telling us this?
Is it for the reward?
I want to protect my family
I don't want my wife and child shot, please
What do you think you could tell us
about what's found at the scene of assassination?
This one is Gabcik's
Carried his stun gun in here
Where are these two men?
I don't know Hiding in Prague somewhere
You'll have to do better than that
Where are they?
I don't know
Mr. Curda
How old is your child?
Who is it?
It's alright I'll get it
Raise your hands, turn your face to the wall
What... what do you want?
Where are they?
What are you doing? Tell them to stop
I want to know where they are
Who? Who're you talking about?
Kubis and Gabcik
Assassins where are they?
Assassins... there's no one here
Only my wife
Just take me
My husband know nothing about it
Hey Blashure!
I am sorry
Mommy
Quickly, you must warn Ata
Go to the conservator
Tell him he must not go home
He's to go straight to the crypt
and you... Hurry up!
What's the matter?
I haven't any money for the traffic
There
Mama!
Jundriska!
Papa!
My Evil-
Just tell me where they are
Why protect them?
Why be so obstinate?
You are music student, I see
Ah yes, you play the violin
We are leaving at day break
I know
The war will be over someday
I'll be back
Stay with me
I can't
I'll hide you.
You'll be safe We'll leave Prague and go somewhere else
Anna, it's not possible
Why?
Try and think of afterwards
That's what I do
When it's over I think of coming back
Seeing you again
I wish I knew you better I wish we had more time
You're right We don't know each other at all
I know nothing about you Anna
You don't even know my real name
It's not important
I never did get that red dress
No, I never saw a football match
Curda?
It's pleased to see you Curda
I... I didn't tell them
about the church... I didn't tell him
What church Ata?
Sunsils, at the Slover street
I... I didn't tell them
I didn't... l... I didn't tell them
Come back soon
Jan
What happened?
My mother's...
There's nothing for you here
Kubis
Lieutenant!
- What's the matter? - They found us
The street is swirming with them
How did they find us?
Who the hell talked?
What difference does it make?
Hundreds of them
I could've warn the others
No, there isn't time
- Bahtz take cover Bubrich - follow me
Father Patrek?
Give me a hand
The passage!
Father Patrek thought it might lead to the river
At least this must go onto the street
They are re-grouping
Jesus christ there's more bastards up there
Alright, who are these men?
Are these the assassins?
No
Who are they then?
Bach...
Bubrich
and Korel
They were dropped after us
Where are the others?
Come on! It's our only chance
It's hopeless
The priest was wrong
There is no passage
Here it is
Tell him to surrender
Jan!
Josef!
Josef, give up! It's useless
Here!
Josef, Jan!
Listen!
Jusech, help Josef go up the stairs
Go on!
Josef!
How many you got?
Enough
