-What does "casualties" mean? -"Casualties".
Dead. 41 dead.
I should have known the weather would change.
-Most of them were shot. -After they crashed.
-The plane was full of ice. -That's enough.
Let's pack up and take the radio.
We must get as far away as we can. We haven't got much time.
Damn! Damn!
-Director Henriksen. -Major Decker. What's going on?
40 British soldiers were stopped from carrying out an operation.
-Here? At this factory? -No.
Helleland. On the west coast. But they were on their way here.
But Helleland is far away.
How can you be sure they were coming here?
There is no doubt.
-Brun, I need to speak to you. -Not now.
Make sure my employees are treated well.
The work they do is extremely important.
I know, Director Henriksen. We will take the necessary steps.
Someone here is working for the English.
Here at this factory.
-Do you know who it could be? -No.
No...
Then you wouldn't mind us investigating this.
Have a nice day, Director Henriksen.
What's going on here? What?
We were ordered here by Major Decker.
I'll take care of this.
What are you doing?
Rolf!
Daddy!
They took my brother yesterday.
I think it was me they were after.
You need to leave.
-Right away? -Now.
The Germans know the factory was the target.
Go up to the Grouse men on the plateau. You know where.
And you?
It's empty!
Raisins.
Here are some biscuits.
-Dried meat. -Is that all?
We have a visitor.
Have you got chocolate?
Damned idiots...
The Germans have posted guards by the road and entrances.
There may be people cooperating with the Brits.
Even Brun had his office searched.
What do you mean by that?
-It's Hydro's property. -Yes.
Yes.
You were supposed to sort these things out.
The Germans made a new order, and we said yes.
Unless production is interrupted we continue as before.
-Do you understand? -I understand
There was a raid on the worker's houses.
They took Rolf, our maid's husband, the one you fired.
And you are completely indifferent.
What's going on? There are Germans soldiers everywhere.
They tried to sabotage the factory.
-Who are "they"? -The English.
I don't understand why.
Why would they sabotage that stupid factory?
I don't know.
You're lying.
Continue. Good.
Slowly.
Continue.
Stop!
-Temperature? -The same.
And now? -It's increasing.
It's increasing.
-Should we get Diebner? -Later.
Check the temperature.
What happened?
-Werner, it is increasing! -The control rods!
Lower the control rods.
Lower them!
Okay, start. Get them in.
Werner, come. Come!
Out! Get out!
We have produced energy. One of...
Werner, you don't understand.
We are a team. You and me. You know that.
I have always said that.
I have defended you several times. And now a fire...
I have 20 other projects that need money.
And then you burn everything down.
Forgive me. It's a misunderstanding.
That was a good fire, the best proof the reactor works.
-We produced energy. -It's not enough.
My bosses want to see results. We have waited long enough.
-This is a result. -It's not good. It is a fire.
All the theories and clever calculations are not enough.
The truth is... you haven't produced anything.
-It may seem that way... -Diebner's project...
...has a larger scope and has produced definite results.
We have made new progress in the labour camps.
Yes...
No, you stay.
Could you complete the project?
Of course. The reactor can be rebuilt.
How do I know you won't burn up everything again?
Are you insinuating I sabotaged my own work?
I'm a scientist.
Many scientists have left Germany.
They weren't welcome here.
Some were.
Diebner.
Why didn't you say something? You can see he doesn't understand.
You're not the only scientist here, Heisenberg.
You should have thought about that earlier.
Li?
Has something happened?
Well... I thought since you don't come home-
-I have to come here to see how you are doing.
-How are you guys doing? -We are okay.
My muscles hurt. We started to carry the coal.
And food?
We're getting thinner.
I'll take care of it.
Do you know what's funny?
What's funny?
I'm beginning to understand the meaning of war since you are away so much.
I love our children. I would do anything for them.
But I love you more.
I know. It's not right.
But that's how it is.
-Everything okay? -I'm fine. And you?
Thank you.
Could you blow this up?
-What is it? -The heavy water plant at Vemork.
-The whole thing? -The basement.
You get a team of ten, you choose half of them.
Departure on the first full moon in December. Plane drop.
You will concentrate only on this.
And the other half? -Poulsson, Kjelstrup, Haugland.
Helberg and Skinnarland. They are already there.
Are you ready?
Very.
That's Kayser, Idland, Storhaug and Strømsheim.
-Good. Haukelid as the sixth. -Haukelid?
His foot has healed. He's more than ready.
-We don't need more men. -Yes, you do.
Four on the explosives and at least five outside.
-You wanted a small team. -It still is.
Do you think he's too much?
He is. That's why I like him.
He can improvise, he's a good shot when he doesn't...hit his legs.
Okay.
You okay?
-We'll starve to death. -No, we'll find food.
We'll wait for new orders from England.
I have been sick all day. Arne was sick yesterday.
I know. Arne will be fine, and so will you.
There's no life out there.
Not even a grouse.
Claus, you're next.
Yes.
Here.
I'll try again towards the north.
Give me a couple of days.
Reindeer lichen.
We can see that.
We can't eat moss.
If reindeers can eat it, so can you.
-We'll die eating that. -No one dies from eating moss.
It might upset our stomachs.
Eat your moss, Einar.
Damn it.
Thank you.
-Astrid? How are you? -I'm fine, thank you.
-Any news of your husband? -No.
Mummy?
Hello, little miss. Come here.
-Good afternoon, I'm Ellen. -Lise.
I've always liked that name.
You look like a Lise as well.
Say good bye now. You've got homework.
-I refuse to do German. -Lise...
How would you like to do your homework here with me?
I help you with German, you help me finish off the hot chocolate.
Please.
Come here.
Look at that...
Eins. Zwei. Drei.
You do know German. Shall we read from this?
"Norway, Norway rising up from the grey green sea."
"Islands scattered like baby birds."
"Fjords like tongues, into the calm..."
Yes?
Major Decker wants to see you. He is in the heavy water room.
-We don't know what happened. -It's not hard to understand.
Someone added something that doesn't belong.
Soap or cod liver oil.
I want a list of everyone who's been here the last 24 hours.
I can't give you that.
-Why not? -It's Hydro's responsibility.
-What responsibility? -To prevent this from happening.
And what are you going to do?
-Go through the list. -To do what?
Find the guilty.
Which guarantees do I have?
This is my company.
If someone tries to destroy our work,-
-it's in my own interest to find him.
I will take care of it.
I can guarantee it.
Good.
-I need to speak to Brun. -He's not here today.
-He might be at home. Call him. -He's not answering.
He must have left a message.
We're breaking!
You were too late, again.
-15 seconds. -The guards are there, not there.
And the door opens inwards.
Jomar. Say hello to the boys.
-Knut Haukelid. -Kasper Idland.
-Joachim Rønneberg. -Birger Strømsheim.
-How did you get here? -Through Sweden.
-Close call? -Yes.
What's the plan?
-In three weeks. -That's great.
There's still a lot to do.
-Planning, training, equipment. -You'll manage.
We've had one failed mission and a group on the plateau without food.
We're ready.
24. December 1942
That was that Christmas.
We can celebrate in the bar. First round is on Rønneberg.
You're the boss. Second round is on me.
-You don't have any money. -I can borrow from you.
We're going to die anyway.
-Welcome. -Good evening. My wife Elisabeth.
-Pleased to meet you. -And you. Good evening.
General Fischer.
Professor Heisenberg, head of the uranium programme.
So it's you who is spending all our money.
Mrs Heisenberg.
-Hello. -Werner.
Ladies and gentlemen, Professor Heisenberg.
On my way in here I heard someone say-
-that all available resources now will be sent to the Eastern Front.
More planes, tanks and soldiers.
That the war needs to start giving results fast.
And then the professors can do as much research as they want.
I admit that the thought is understandable.
But it's too short-sighted.
I want to explain something to you-
-and I ask you to keep it in mind.
Our current research situation-
-is the same as for our enemies in England, Canada and America.
There won't be any earth-shattering results any time soon.
Not today, and most likely not next week.
But perhaps in five years.
Three years. Next year.
But the results from this research-
-will change our understanding of energy. Completely.
We can build as many planes as we like.
We can fight the biggest battles on land, at sea or in the air.
But no matter what we do,-
-those who manage to control the nuclear energy-
-will be unbeatable.
What kind of energy are we talking about?
Examples: We are talking about energy-
-that can make our ships sail on the oceans for months.
We are talking about energy that can supply our industry for years.
We're getting closer to our goal.
What is your goal, Professor Heisenberg?
To build a reactor.
A reactor is not a bomb.
A reactor will produce energy and plutonium-
-which can be used in bombs.
But if we so desperately need a bomb-
-why don't we just produce plutonium?
Because it doesn't work that way.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have already had the pleasure-
-of listening to one of Professor Heisenberg's lectures.
And I am certain that you will now explain to us-
-how powerful the bomb must be-
-so that even general Fischer will be convinced.
This bomb that you are talking about,-
-that you say can destroy a whole city in seconds,-
-how big is this city you're talking about?
Let me ask this instead: How big is the city you want to hit?
London.
To destroy London you need a bomb the size of...
The size of a pineapple.
About the size of this? -About that size, yes.
Ladies and gentlemen, the downfall of London.
We like the sound of that.
