"Are you harboring Chilean citizens? If you are, how many?"
- Hi. - Hello there.
- I need to find out where my husband, Rodrigo Sandoval is.
- GDR, Andreas Voss. - Nice to meet you.
- Don't hit the comrade. He saved me.
- I'm ready to help. - That's what I wanted to hear.
- Nervous? - Yes.
- Don't be. It's a waste of time.
- Hurry up.
- It's showtime.
Good luck.
Who dares to touch me first?
- Family member of Juan Cáceres.
Manuel Miranda.
Rodrigo Sandoval.
Just one family member per detainee.
- Are you sure?
- Good morning. Identification.
- Good morning. - Go ahead.
- Nice to meet you. - Good morning. Thanks for your help.
- Come in. We are having breakfast. - Thank you.
- I've missed you. - I've missed you too.
- How is Ricardo? - Fine. He misses you.
- Promise me that you'll take care of yourself.
- I will.
- They've lost their minds. I could never have imagined...
- You're fine, right? - Yes.
I have good news. I found a lawyer.
- I'm getting you out of here. - Thank you.
- I love you. - I love you.
- The visit is over!
The visit is over!
- That's all they let me give to you.
- It's all I need. I love you. - I love you.
- Take care of our son and my mum.
- Did you see him? - Yes. He's alive.
He's alive.
- Freely translated, they are afraid
that the refugees will cause problems in the Finnish society
because we don't have immigration laws.
And the committee has come to a conclusion that the best way
to help the refugees is to place them somewhere near their homeland.
- Total bullshit.
What are you saying?
That you won't accept any refugees at all?
- That's right. Finland has never accepted refugees and never will.
- I'll talk to the Swedish prime minister
and ask him to call your president.
- Castillo.
- Not today, ambassadors. Please not today.
- What's going on with my prisoners at the stadium?
- They are not your prisoners.
- What's going on here?
- How about golf on Saturday? - Sure.
Excuse me.
It took several hours,
but these two were granted exit permits.
- Only these two?
- See you at the office.
- International journalists, please pay attention
to the so-called Plan Z, revealed by Minister Ewing.
It was supposed to be carried out on 19th of September.
The objective was to eliminate all commanders-in-chief in the army.
Around twenty opposition members. And what for?
To unleash a civil war in this country.
It is proved in the documents released by the Presidential Palace.
- When will we have access to the documents?
- The investigation hasn't been finished,
and we want to protect the victims.
We can't give you more details.
- Mercurio newspaper. Was Plan Z organized by Allende's government?
- Was it a self-coup? - You just named it.
We assume preliminarily that it was organized by the MIR.
And commissioned by the Popular Unity.
Most certainly some outsiders were involved too. Cubans.
Our military forces saved Chile.
- Excuse me, sir. What about the Soviet Union abandoning Chile?
- Let's stick to the subjects of this meeting.
- Excuse me.
PLAN Z ALLENDE: ABSOLUTE POWER
- Eliana.
They accuse you of being one of the orchestrators of Plan Z.
- Do I look like someone with a plan?
- You planned to finance the self-coup
with the trade union's money.
- What money? - Let me see.
According to Plan Z, we were going to kill Allende
and put Altamirano in power with help from the Cubans.
- Fidel loved Allende. - It's all there, see the weapons.
- Keep these. We just have to find a flight for you.
Things go so slowly now because of the hassle about Plan Z.
- Thank you. - Thank you so much.
- Who is this lawyer? Where did you find him?
- I was recommended this famous lawyer, but he couldn't take the job.
But he knew this newly graduated, really good lawyer. Jaime... Garcia.
Members of Parliament have sent a plea on Rodrigo's behalf.
Look at these names!
Even the Minister of Education signed it!
- Hello. - How are you?
- Hello, I'm Jaime. - Tapani Brotherus.
- So today, we begin the fight. Are you ready to work?
Of course.
A coffee, a piece of orange cake, and a raspberry pastry.
- Well?
- Chile is kicking out all communist countries.
- Roger that.
- East Germany wants to stay.
Chargé d'affaires, Joachim Elm, was here just now.
- Of course GDR wants to stay.
Allende got everyone to invest in Chile.
- If GDR stays, what's it to us?
- They need a neutral protector state.
The Soviets chose India. Poland chose Switzerland.
- Now GDR wants Finland, goddamn. - Let's refuse!
Or everyone will think we're communists.
- They have a staff of 70
and 30 million dollars' worth of trade agreements.
Communism with German efficiency.
- 30 million dollars?
- This might be a good thing, then. - The west will disapprove.
- We're going to stay in Chile and hold on to the trade agreements.
No matter what.
- What's your problem? - Excuse me?
- I didn't know you are a communist country.
- We're not. Finland is a neutral country.
That's why we can be a protector state for the GDR.
- Are you giving Finnish passports to these communists?
- No. We'll think of something else.
- You are letting the communists and the press to influence you.
It looks like you are missing common sense.
You did have a wife, right?
Of course you have a wife.
Lysa.
Maybe you don't have common sense, but you have a wife.
I'm sure she wouldn't accept your involvement in this.
- I follow the orders from my superiors, sir.
- Me too.
Isn't that the worst part?
To live according to their expectations.
Listen. No foreign country
will interfere with Chile's internal affairs.
With or without Finland's protection.
Are we clear?
- The show continues: I've hidden 145,000 dollars and weapons.
"Senator Salinas has considerable wealth..." Who believes this?
- First we were thieves and terrorists and now assassins.
- Someone who defends a legally elected parliament and the president
is not a terrorist.
- It's simple. You fight weapons with weapons.
- Where is Altamirano now?
- He'll come out when the time is right.
What about you? Why don't you say anything?
- What do you want me to say? - You're just listening.
- Who sent you here? - No one.
- Don't lie, bastard.
How did they know that Salinas arrived here disguised as a woman?
- Excuse me, Oscar. I was disguised, but not as a woman.
- It proves that they are wrong. - Or this traitor wants
to humiliate us and fill the house with traitors.
- Tina!
Time to do your homework.
- I don't have school. - But you should. Come.
- So? - Let him be.
- Do you want to die? The soldiers are coming over the wall.
- Remember that you are in an embassy. - They are attacking us.
They are attacking us.
- Let's calm down the revolution a bit. - I know what I have to do.
He shouldn't be sitting here.
- Please get out of the car. - I'm a Finnish diplomat.
- Are you taking something illegal to the embassy?
- Nothing.
- Get out of the car. - We are diplomats.
We're getting a taste of how they treat communists.
- The ambassador left yesterday.
Those who stayed are now lead by an academic.
- They've burnt a few papers...
- Mr. Brotherus. - Mr...
- Voss, Andreas Voss. Hello. - Of course, sorry.
- Hello. This is our vice consul, Ilkka Jaamala.
- Hello. - Hello.
- That's Lina's seat. She answered the phone.
She is already in Berlin.
Follow me, please.
The others are in Berlin, including Ambassador Trappen.
We hope the crisis will be over soon and they can return.
We have so much to do.
This building is very big. You can see for yourselves.
- There you go. - Thank you.
- I'd like to meet the staff. - There are only three of us.
- Could you perhaps show me around?
- Of course. Follow me.
- Does anyone else know that I'm here?
- No one.
- Let's keep it that way.
Don't put me on any list.
Let them keep looking for me,
spending their men and time.
- So they won't have resources to search for the others.
Brilliant.
Wouldn't you like to get a permit to leave the country?
- I don't want to leave. They need me here.
- I understand that.
No one will know that you're here.
But I must know if there are any weapons here.
- The only weapon we have left is invisibility.
- How's it going, dad? - I'm hungry.
- Mum... Why is Oscar afraid of frogs?
- What are you talking about? - He said the house was full of sapo.
They're not frogs, idiot!
- It means spies! - Okay.
- Hey, there are no spies here. Let's go to sleep now.
- Tapani.
It's not true what they say, is it?
The murders and bombs?
I have to run some errands.
You realize that the children have to stay here?
With the others.
- I'll go and see Castillo today.
I might finally get some exit visas.
- They received everything,
- even his self-defense statement. - This is unheard of.
- I sent all the material you gave me. - Aren't you going to defend him?
- Can't we be his witnesses? - They won't allow it.
- It's a war crime trial. - You should get to defend yourself.
It's a joke.
It's what we have.
- I'll try to get in.
Maybe I'll get more information.
Wait for me.
A Finnish diplomat.
- Rodrigo Enrique Sandoval Sanhueza. Case 45-6B.
- Rodrigo Sandoval?
- Yes, sir.
- You are accused of conspiracy against the regime,
terrorist attack to a power plant,
intentional homicide
with the aggravating factor that the victims were soldiers,
and of carrying an illegal weapon.
- Is that your signature? - Yes, sir.
- Do you still plead not guilty to these charges?
- Yes, sir.
- Do you know the location of the illegal weapons?
- No, sir.
- Names, places, or dates
- of possible attacks against the regime? - No, sir.
- Are you a communist? A militant? - No, sir.
- Are you a socialist? - No, sir.
- Rodrigo! Are they being released?
- Open the gate!
- I'm so sorry.
- The charges are made up.
What do we do now? When can I see him?
- There's a lot to investigate.
- Seija, it'll be all right.
- We hadn't planned anything. - Of course we had.
- But the president didn't accept our plans to protect him.
- I defended my president with my life. - He was friends with Altamirano.
- They watched Western movies together in Cañaveral with the MIR guys.
- I just wish they had also started to act like cowboys.
- Forget about Altamirano.
The asylums in Cuba are in charge of the armed resistance.
They put up a committee: Solidarity with the Antifascist Resistance.
- Let's be patient. - Fuck solidarity.
We need leadership.
After the tank putsch, you kept calling the workers
to the streets to defend themselves, and now you talk about patience.
- What's wrong with you?
- Watch out.
- I'll get something to clean it with.
- We need to do something instead of drinking and blaming each other.
- We have to create a new identity for you, to get you on the list.
- Why? They need me here.
- Jaamala!
- Boss... Is everything all right?
- What's the occasion? - No, it's not a party.
The neighbors just came to visit.
You should be indoors. They don't know you're a diplomat from behind.
- Who is it? - It's just me, Leena.
Look, it's Marco Ponce! This is a fancy party.
He's a part of the ruling class. A right man in the right place.
But have you ever asked what he really does there?
- You can ask him yourself. I'll get you a drink.
You can spend the night.
There's room for me, but what about the refugees??
What the hell, Jaamala? All this space and no refugees.
- My house is full! - You know this house was cheap.
- And secondly... - The rich folk who left Chile
- had to find a safe, European tenant. - Yes.
Lots of people left when the communists ruled. Why?
They were thrown out of their own homes.
The state confiscated all they had.
And what did they get in return? Weapons from the Soviets and Cuba...
- Don't start with that Plan Z bullshit.
- Think twice before you speak. I'm not at work.
This is my house! And you're not welcome here tonight.
Just keep your own family safe!
And see that you get home safe.
Your diplomatic passport won't stop bullets!
- Look! - Wow, an egg. Great.
Do we have hens?
- Ilkka called and asked if you're coming to work.
- That's mine! Be careful.
- It's mine! - Use this.
- At least someone has a brain.
Take it.
Carefully. Take your stick.
- What's in there? - Chocolate.
- Can I get some? Please. - It is wet.
- Why don't they throw in decent food for all of us?
I've spent all my money.
- That's all there is until the next pay check.
- You could have died on that trip. They shoot people!
What the hell made you go out at night?
- I had a plan...
- I have one, simple request. Stay alive.
The children need a father.
- Congratulations. You are now under Finland's protection
- As you say.
- Mr. Hertz.
- Come in.
- Thank you. - Please take a seat.
- The more I look into it, the more convinced I am that it'll be fine.
The charges sound terrible, but he's not the only one.
- They play this game with everybody. - It's not a game.
- It's a matter of life and death. - Of course.
That's why it's good to know the rules.
- We must get Sandoval on the list for a visa and take him out of Chile.
- No. That's not going to work.
- What then? - We'll wait.
- Wait for what?
- We'll delay his trial as long as we can.
So that he won't be sentenced among the first ones.
- He's innocent, and we can prove that. They'll release him.
- Haven't you read the papers or watched TV?
They are full of revelations about Plan Z and the communist conspiracy.
They confuse our minds and then shoot people in the name of justice.
- I don't trust his plan. Does he know what he's doing?
- Excuse us for a moment.
- Rodrigo will rot in jail for the rest of his life, or worse!
I can't just wait without any income. Shall we find someone else?
- Listen, Mr. Brotherus... - Unfortunately...
We need to find someone more experienced.
- Experienced?
Experienced in what?
No one is experienced in this kind of situation.
Dozens of wives and mothers have contacted me
after their men have been wrongly sentenced.
Show me a lawyer who claims to be experienced in this matter.
- We need to wait until the situation calms down.
The bulls who get out first are the fiercest.
If we rush now, Rodrigo will end up with a death sentence.
- Do you have time?
Come in. Seija, you said you needed a job.
- Yeah.
- Well, here's a job for you.
The person who had this job went back to Berlin with the others.
We need a replacement. You have to speak Spanish, German, and Finnish.
You get a decent pay, and diplomatic safety as a bonus.
- Should I answer it?
- Yeah, in German.
- The embassy of the German Democratic Republic.
- Imagine having 500 teletypers connected by only one centre.
- Unbelievable. - It is. The Cybercahuin...
- The Cybersyn. - That's what I meant.
- I always thought it was nonsense. With all due respect, my friend.
Playing with computers
while there is a high rate of malnutrition in Chile.
- The interconnected information could bring health benefits as well.
We could predict Chile's economic variables for the future.
- The future, you say. How about the present?
That gizmo wasn't any good.
- And now it's just burned plastic. - It worked in the truckers' strike.
- Don't mention the truckers, or I'll lose my appetite.
- Luckily you are not very hungry. There is not much to eat.
- It's tasty. Shall we?
- Can you watch the pan? - Sure. I'll turn down the heat.
- What happened? - Everything is fine.
- How much did they send? - Quite a lot.
- Let's give some to our hosts.
- The money is not for that.
- Lysa Brotherus speaking.
I'm sorry, he's not here.
Who are you talking about?
Is Edelstam already at the airport?
Okay...
Yes, I got it. Thank you.
- I have no idea where they are. Probably with those Germans again.
- Whose idea was to play golf? - Mine.
- Who picked this place?
- I did. Or do you know other golf courses nearby?
- When was this decided? - Yesterday.
They wouldn't find here otherwise. Hey, Ilkka, trust me.
Hello!
You found your way here.
- Hello. I'm afraid you'll have to teach us the basics.
- Ilkka will surely show you.
- Yeah...
- It's time to go.
- Now? How do we do it?
- I don't know yet.
- It's time for your free tourist trip, like it said in the newspapers.
- I'm so happy for you.
I hope you go to a warm country, not to a Nordic country.
- Maybe Italy. - That's it.
Exactly.
Let's go.
- This is a bad idea. - Not at all. Can I keep this?
They can't inspect diplomatic cars, right?
- Supposedly.
- A hat?
- Good morning. - Good morning.
- A beautiful day for the beach.
- It's a bit cold. - Not for Finns.
Are you ready?
- Chile has been an important partner for Finland
- in the forest industry. - That's right.
- What kinds of sums are we talking about?
- We'd rather not name any sums...
- What happens to trade after the fascist coup?
The junta is milking money from us, unjustifiably.
We've paid for the copper that the junta now refuses to deliver.
And since the ship can't depart, we have to pay expensive port fees.
We should be working tirelessly for the copper shipment.
- We need to sort it out.
We'll contact the port authorities.
- Excuse us for a moment. Tapani, come here.
- Gentlemen, excuse me.
- They're photographing us. - Who?
- There's a German guy who's taking pictures
- and probably recording us, too. - Now they know our golf secrets.
- I don't want to be in their goddamn files! Let's go.
- What shall I tell them? - Say that I got sick or something.
- You can't be serious.
Ilkka...
- I'm sorry we're so late. - Thanks, Lysa.
Let's go. Hurry up.
- Have a good journey. - Thank you.
- All the bloody and criminal details of the sinister Plan Z
were revealed to the press today by the Rancagua regiment.
The bloodshed and horrors planned by the socialist party extremists
were exposed already a few weeks ago.
Now the arrest of a doctor in that region
and the documents he had, complemented the plan...
- I go to the toilet.
- ...revealed the total range of the plan.
- What were you talking about with Silvia in the kitchen?
- Why do you care? - Why do I care?
Of course I care.
I asked you something.
Why were you talking to Silvia in the kitchen?
- It's...
I can't tell you.
- So you can't tell me. Why is that?
- Because I'm not a traitor.
- Because you're not a traitor.
What were you talking about?
- About a meeting... - With whom?
- I can't tell you. - Where?
- In the maid's room at 8 p.m.
- Very good.
- Eliana...
Could you share the chocolate that you received
- with the others? - Who let you go through my things?
- It was my daughter. - Is she allowed to touch my things?
- We've spent all our money on you.
- I'm aware of it, and I'm thankful.
But the money is for the armed resistance, not for food.
- I know you need to get organized,
but not in here.
- We have kids here. - Spying kids.
- I'm sure you understand as a woman.
There is so many of us, and we need to eat.
- For some women, there are more important things than domestic work.
If you haven't noticed, there's a war outside.
In a war, you eat rice and potatoes.
Bad luck.
- Why were you two hiding? - Take it easy.
- Admit that you fucked her. - No.
- Admit it, Pavez. You liar. - She...
- Stop it!
- That's my rifle.
- Why didn't you tell me it was about fucking?
- I'm not a traitor. - Calm down.
- Don't you tell what to do. - Calm down.
This is a stupid thing, but I'm not capable of anything.
- Oscar.
- I'm good for nothing! Nothing.
- Don't! - Give it to me.
- I can't surrender.
- Give it to me.
- We know that. - I can't surrender.
- Eduardo, please take the kids outside and stay with them.
Everybody, please. Leave us.
Let's try to calm down a bit.
- We had to protect him.
- Who?
- Allende.
That was our job.
To stay with him.
To take care of him.
He didn't want us to stay.
They kept calling him. Outside of Santiago,
there was a command centre for him to keep up the resistance. He declined.
He stayed where he was.
He told us.
"Go away."
"You have no reason to be here."
He waited for his death there.
I've been waiting for the sign on the radio.
But I haven't heard anything.
Where is everybody?
They are all dead.
Where are my friends?
Where are they?
- Stop!
- Do you have a rope? - Yes.
- Please, help me. - What's going on?
- Let's find out.
- Throw the rope! There's someone in the river.
- Help me!
- Please, help me! - Pull him out!
- Please help me!
- Help! - Pull him out quickly!
- Help them please!
- They were happy. They had missed their friends.
Thanks for letting them stay the night.
- You need something stronger than tea.
- Thanks.
- So?
What's the matter with you?
- Everything is...
It's greater than...
This work comes with a huge responsibility.
Maybe we're not so familiar with this country yet.
And what's more...
We are out of food.
- For the four of you?
Why?
- Do you think I'm stupid? - No.
Of course I've realized that you're hiding people.
30 people.
- Don't tell me. I don't want to get involved in politics.
You shouldn't either.
They can kill you.
- Maybe I should take the kids back to Finland.
- You don't have to send your kids away if you get rid of the people.
- How can you tell if what we do...
If we are doing the right thing?
- We cannot leave these people on their own.
- Naturally I can't accept the junta's persecution.
But if you have to support the opposition,
I need to know what's going on in the embassy.
Can you promise me that?
- Of course.
- I don't sing for the love of singing,
my voice doesn't sound beautiful.
I listen to the language of the guitar,
I follow its heart, its mind.
It has a heart of earth,
and the wings of a dove.
Its chords are like holy water,
blessing my sorrow and grief.
My song has found a purpose
as Violeta would say.
Guitar hard at work,
shining and smelling of spring.
