"MUFFLED VOICES" "GUNSHOTS" "GUNSHOTS" "GUNSHOTS" "DISTANT VOICES" "You wanted to speak to me." "New orders." "We want to rebuild everything." "What do you think?" "How long will that take?" " It will be a hell of a lot of work." "But not impossible." "What was here can be built again." " Could you get some coffee?" "Black?" "Yes." "One moment." "Thank you for calling me." "I'm so glad you're not hurt." "Astrid says it was Norwegians." "They crossed the ravine to the railway." "You don't do that unless you know Rjukan like the back of your hand." " That's what she said." "The maid?" " How does she know?" "She heard it in the shop." "They thought it was Norwegians hiding on the plateau." " Why would they do that?" "Hide or blow up the basement?" " Blow up the basement." "Are you asking me?" " Very well." "Then I'm asking you." "Okay." "People are saying it's because you are trading with the Germans." " Anything else?" "No, thank you." "Did you get your correspondence in order?" " I think so." "Good." "Do you know what else people are saying?" "They're saying that (he war is about to turn." "The Germans have lost 200,000 men at Stalingrad." "And it might not be a good idea to be close to the Germans." "We are occupied." "Norway doesn't just stop running." "I'm just saying what I've heard." "You shouldn't believe everything you hear." " Did you think about that?" "Yes, I did think about that." " But it's impossible." "Why?" "Because being alone makes me unhappy." "And my happiness is my responsibility." "GERMANY SURRENDERS AT STALINGRAD" " Blown up?" "Yes." " The whole facility?" "It seems like it." "Could we use graphite?" "The Americans probably are." "That doesn't mean they are right." "Werner, these camps..." "I've run the numbers." "No one comes back." "What do you think?" "How big are they?" "I don't know." "AIR RAID SIREN" "Ifs late." "Nothing is happening." "And not because of the materials." "Somethings not right." "DISTANT AIR RAID SIREN" "Li." "I'm sorry." "There you are." "They are not sounding the "all clear' anymore." "They whole city seems to be on fire." "I heard that 70% of all 16-year-olds have joined the army." "Thank God our children are still young." "I need to go again, but at least we got to see each other." "I'll pack up your food." " Pardon?" "I'll pack up your food, I said!" "I know I can't blame you." "You warned me." "You said I would never become jealous of a woman, only science." "You were right." "But what I didn't realise..." "When you decided we were staying in Germany, you didn't consider your family." "You know that is not true." "lam..." "Sometimes I'm not as brave as you think." "I need to go." "Sir, the heroes from Telemark will be here any minute now." "Thank you." "Tronstad." "There's a message just in." "Helberg is missing." "They didn't report him at the border." "Haugland and Skinnarland haven't heard anything since the split and there are unconfirmed reports coming in of German troops, professional marksmen." "Fuck." "Sorry." "Oh, no, no, no." "Come on!" "God, man." "Mind the gap." " Congratulations." "Thanks." "Very good to see you." "Well done." "Congratulations, congratulations, you did a wonderful job." "Good job." "Hi..." " What's the matter'?" "Helberg hasn't shown up." "We got a message from Einar and are checking with the others..." "He's probably dead." "KNOCKING" "When we sent Freshman in, we doubled the numbers, divided the group into two." "Two planes to increase the chances." "They'd hardly tested the planes and there was no planned retreat." "It was quite simply... .. a one-way ticket." "So in comparison, Gunnerside's a great success." "It's still a life." "You didn't seriously think we could do this without any casualties?" "He was my friend." "Then give yourself a break." "Hundreds of thousands of people will die." "London was... bombed every night for nine months, 200 bombs a night." "43,381 dead so far." "50,856 people seriously injured." "1,150,000 homes destroyed, just in London." "And now we're going to bomb Germany again and create a mayhem that no-one in history has ever witnessed." "And even if I cheer every bomb we drop," "I'm still very aware of all the people we kill." "Yesterday I saw some children building a..." "What do you call ii?" "An igloo." "They were building an igloo." "They dug up a huge amount of snow." "Four boys were building something they pretended was a..." "A castle or a palace with lots of rooms and corridors." "But what they forgot is that spring is coming." "And everything will melt." "From even the most beautiful castle only puddles will remain." "Everything in vain." ""Strategic retreat"." "That's what they call it now." "It's a new term." "Remember it." ""Total war" and "strategic retreat"." "You need more people, am I right?" "350 Russian prisoners of war from the Minsk and Smolensk battles." " Prisoners of war?" "Yes." "We're doubling the heavy water order." "As long as we have enough manpower..." ""everything is possible." "Isn't that wonderful?" "Of course." "Henriksen..." "They have bombed our factories at Herøy." "American planes right after noon." "More than 50 casualties." "Injured?" "About a hundred." "The whole facility is ruined." " American planes?" "Yes." "I'll go down there." "Cancel all my meetings." "I sent the cook home." "I didn't know when you would be back." "I found some leftovers in the kitchen." "Dear, you're living a dangerous life." "First the factory and now Herøy." "Next time Rjukan will be bombed." "Do we have any butter?" "I couldn't find any." "No one has butter anymore!" "No one has anything, except those with a lot of money." "People like us." "What are you selling to the Germans that is so important that the plant is bombed and sabotaged?" "I'm going to bed." "Tell the maid to change my mattress." "It's too hard." "Do ii yourself." "I hope you see where this is going." "The Germans won't win the war." "It's irrelevant how much you produce!" "We just want to run our plant in peace." "I'm not talking about Hydro, but you." "What are you going to do when all this is over'!" "I have kept the plant running." "You didn't have to." "A lot of people didn't." "Everyone in Rjukan works at the factory." "I can't let people starve." "Some have fought, and some have been arrested." "Astrid's husband, for example." "Which side were you on when that happened?" "Did you forget?" "He was released." "And I wasn't the one who arrested him." "No, you fired him for something he hadn't done." "You need to see the big picture." "Before the war I was an officer in the reserve." "I haven't done anything against my country." "We'll be outcasts." "No one will ever speak to us again." "That will not happen." "I promise." "EXPLOSION" "And he ordered me to get down on the floor in the back of the bus, and I ended up sitting next to the very same girl that offended Talbovan and she was very beautiful." "We got on quite well, actually." "I managed to work my Helberg charm on her." "He didn't like that, so he ordered me to swap places with him, and suddenly I was standing in front of the bus and then I jumped out." "The bus was still driving." "It stopped a few hundred metres away from me, and I ran towards it rather than away from it, because that would, you know, get them by surprise." "And they were shooting at me, but they missed, they kept missing, and then throwing grenades at me and they kept missing." "One of them actually hit me between my shoulder blades, but it..." "It didn't explode immediately, just fell down on the ground and then exploded, and I escaped into the forest." "And here I am." "LAUGHTER" " Cheers to that." " Cheers." " Cheers." " Skal." " Skal." " Skal." "Made it to Drammen on foot with a broken arm." "Then to Oslo and over to Sweden." "Yeah." "Best of the best." " Cheers to that." " Cheers." "And cheers to Mussolini." "You know they arrested him yesterday?" "The Americans think there'll be a truce with Italy by the end of the week." "Then we'll get the Mediterranean back again." " It's turning." " Mmm." "Oh, you bet your arse it's turning!" "Give us a year." "Germany won't be anything more than a pile of rubble." "What's your family doing?" "Fine." "Thank you." "Must be hard for them." "Not really." "My wife's got used to not missing me." "And I see them, you know, every now and again." "I suppose I've been of little importance in their lives." "Julie?" "You're leaving?" "Yes, I'm going home." "I've got two reports that have to be done by the morning." "And they can't wait?" "Well, unless you want to do them, no." " I'll buy the next round." " Er..." "A double." "Thank you, but, erm..." "That's very nice..." "What was that?" "Come on." "Let's go back in." "As delightful as... .. that was... .. and as much as I'd like to, I'm..." "I'm going to say no." "Goodbye, Leif." "Take a look at this." "We had a plane over Rjukan two days ago." "These are the photographs we took after the sabotage." "These are now, three months later." "There's something going on." "They're rebuilding it." " We blew up the whole room." "Yes, but it wasn't enough." "What did we do wrong?" "Not you, I. I thought the basement was enough." "What do we do now?" "Look, you've already got two failed missions to your name!" "Flying in there takes a lot of precision." "Are you trying to suggest that my pilots won't hit the target, or are you just worried it'll make your operations look small by comparison?" "Sir..." "Our last operation was precise and successful." "The fast rebuilding of the plant only proves how important the heavy water is to the Germans, so our aim hasn't changed." "If we bomb, when I'm done, you won't even know there was a factory there." "We're not talking about bombing it so that they disable it for a while..." " And why wouldn't we have done that?" " We're going to take it out." "But no guarantee you'd penetrate down through seven floors of concrete." "I can guarantee if you give us the time and the men, we can go in and we can..." "You've had two chances!" "You've had two shots at it." "You've blown both of them!" "Do you think we have an unlimited amount of time?" "We're running out of time!" "They're going to produce heavy water, they're going to get the bomb, and that's going to be it!" "You realise who these people are?" "They're not going to play nice." "You think with what they did to London, it's going to be a walk in the park compared to what they're going to do if they develop heavy water and get a bomb, so think about that." "50 people?" "500 million people will go." "The world will end as we know it." "And we're arguing about a valley in Norway!" " Yes?" "Major Decker is here." "Send him in." " Good morning." "Good morning." "You wanted to speak to me." "What happens if we can't deliver'?" "Because. ...?" "Because ifs something Hydro must decide on their own." "What we use our resources on, and how much we can allow to be spent at the expense of other areas." "For example the ammonia production and fertilizer." " Have you mentioned this to Aubert?" "No." "What do you mean?" "Don't be naive." "If you refuse to deliver, we will replace you with another director." "Or even take over ourselves." "You didn't expect anything else?" " The board..." "Which the German IG Farben controls." " But not the German government." "But it is war." "Norway is under the control of the Wehrmacht." "Our relationship to Hydro is only practical." "Practically speaking, it means nothing if you refuse to deliver heavy water." "We're repairing the damages and will resume production." "What will happen to me?" "Henriksen..." " Weren't you a reserve officer?" "Yes." "All officers are being arrested and sent to Germany." "Protection of honour." "That's what they call it." "Because it's seen as an honour to be arrested." "For me it's just a nice way to suppress that the war is lost." "I just wanted to warn you." "I'm leaving tomorrow." "I'm being sent to Poland." " What happened?" "I didn't want to go along any longer." "Can't you just quit?" "Hydro can find someone else." "Why are you being sent away'?" "Trust me." "BANGING" "Let me do it." " Mrs Henriksen?" "Yes." "Your husband is under arrest." "I understand." "Could you please wait until he's finished dressing?" "Thank you." "Here is everything you need." "The contracts for the next four months." "All the orders." "Deliveries." "Production details." "This will make the transition easier." "They arrested Henriksen." "Yes, in a Norwegian army uniform." "Ehrenschutz." "Protecting his honour." "Wined and dined in a low-security prison." "The man knows what he's doing." "He'll return a damn hero." "So the old head of Hydro is back." "Axel Aubert, 69 years old, Uncle Axel by many, engineering background, from a very good family." "And we know he'll do almost anything for the Germans." "Come in." "Come in." "Thank you, Tone." "AIR RAID SIREN" "AIR RAID SIREN" "911 bombs, and all they could do was knock out one of the generators at the power station?" "That will only take a week to fix!" "21 people killed!" "And all this for what?" "Huh?" "To bomb a bridge?" "A few chemical factories and some railway wagons and... .. a bloody unused bus shelter!" "Precision bombing?" "Leif, we said what we thought." "We were overruled." "Werner." "Werner..." "Yes." "Your part of town was bombed." "Take Elisabeth and the kids away." "I'll come with you." "Stay here." "The Americans have destroyed the heavy water plant." "Check our stock." "Elisabeth." "Elisabeth!" "You need to leave." "You have to leave." "Right away." " Are you coming with us?" "I'll come later." "Go!" "Go now!" "Go!" "General Leeb." "The Ramon; 'm Nam ay was m." "Yes." "The factory was bombed." "Parts of the stock may have been hit." "But as far as we know no bomb reached the basement." "So it seems like the production unit wasn't hit." "The columns, the tanks, the caustic potash and heavy water..." "Not a scratch." "Which means?" "We will continue." "They're moving the factory." "What?" "Where?" "Germany." "Kaiser Wilhelm Institute must have got tired of waiting." "Probably in the south, Munich." "Don't know." "We have an unconfirmed report saying they've already stopped production at Rjukan and started dismantling." "How much time have we got?" "According to our intelligence, less than a week." "I've no idea how they're going to move it all." "But you have to find out." "39 barrels on seven railway wagons." "They're leaving Friday, 9.45am from the factory." "The wagons will be attached to a new train in the Rjukan which then will take them to the jetty at Mar the same evening." "We have five days to come up with something clever." "Is it still possible to get into the factory?" "They've bricked up all windows and doors." "And they've tripled the guard and laid minefields along the entire perimeter of the factory." "That's probably a no, then." " Tronstad, let's take another look at the railway." " Yeah." "Problem is the timing." "To hit when the cargo is just passing?" "We can't be that precise." "What about the next section of railway line, on the bridges, on the way to Herre." "No, it has to hit before the ferry reaches the port, because after that we have reason to believe that the cargo is split into four or five separate loads, then we have four or five separate targets instead of one." "What about the ferry?" "No, that's a passenger ferry." "Well, it's an option." "How would we do it?" "Explosives below deck to make the ferry sink within a few minutes?" "How deep is the lake?" "It's one of the deepest lakes in Norway." "400 metres at its deepest point." "It's a passenger ferry."
