"DEMONS OF WAR" "Based on GOYA" "Starring" "Music" "Director of photography" "Written and directed by" "The Balkans, February 1996" "Stop!" "Biniek!" "Untie them and get them in the car!" " Yes, Sir!" " Now!" "Borun, follow me!" "Cichy!" "Shut them up!" "Get lost!" "I don't want to see you again." "Thank you, Major." "Mercenary?" "A soldier, like yourself." "We'll meet again." "Let's not." "Got a new enemy, Major." "Asshole." "Came here to rape and kill." "Let's shoot him, OK?" "Get in the car!" "Yes, Sir." "Keller requested command until the end of winter but after the scandal with the mercenaries it's impossible." "He freed them, let them go." "That's what he says." "Pray to God it's true." "Lt. Czacki from the Judge Advocate General's office will do the investigation." "And you will support him as the new battalion commander?" "Yes, Sir." "Understood, Lieutenant?" "He took a bribe, or..." "Or what?" "Or just kicked the shit out of them." "Bullshit." "I hope you're right." "Otherwise, we'll have to withdraw the entire Polish contingent." "You understand how that will affect our efforts to join NATO?" "Do you know Keller?" "I kicked him out of my unit." "He abused his soldiers." "He drilled them." "And?" "And I had the best-trained soldiers in the Warsaw Pact." "Minister, was the change in command of the 2nd battalion caused by the clash between the Polish unit and the Bosnian militia?" "As far as I know, there wasn't any clash." "We had a truce." "What was Major Keller's role in this?" "His release was a result of the regular rotation of command." "But who caused the Srebrenica incident?" "Isn't Poland joining NATO more interesting for the media?" "Corporal Houdini." "Major Kusz?" "I was ordered to drive you to the base." "Greetings." "We'll take the lieutenant from J.A.G. Grab the luggage." "Yes Sir." "Everything there?" "What are you smuggling, Corporal?" "Nothing, sir." "The Major asked you a question." "Really, it's not a big deal." "The guys are bored off duty." "And on these, the girls moan in Italian." "What do you want?" "War is over, we are coming back home." "They say they're going home, Sir." "Don't they know this sector's closed?" "They say the war is over, and their homes are there." "Skija is there." "Search the tractor." "Your papers." "Kraic Marija." "Why are you going there?" "Nothing but bandits there." "We are going home." "You're taking a big risk." "That's our home." "It's all burned." "Skija pillaged all of it." "But our home is there..." "You're all to blame." "Let them through." "So beautiful here." "Quiet, peaceful." "Because the Bosnians, Serbs and Muslims all calmed down." "But Skija is still in the mountains." "A Serb?" "Maybe, who knows?" "He got people from all over, even Arabs." "They rob everybody:" "Serbs, Muslims." "A band of renegades and ex-mercenaries." "They've been running wild." "Burning, raping... and the French have been ordered to stay in their camps." "What a war." "We are here to guard the peace, not to fight." "Sure, tell that to Skija." "Houdini?" "What kind of name is that?" "A nickname." "I'm the magician." "Helping the quartermaster to get the food supplies." "Well then, report for duty as you're supposed to." "Yes sir." "How long to the camp?" "Less than an hour." "Let's stop." "I need to take a leak." "Sir!" "Piss on the road." "What?" "Piss on the road." "One Frenchman got his balls blown off when he pissed on an anti-personnel mine." "Corporal." "Not a big loss, he was a queer." "I don't feel like pissing any more." "Let's go." "Since, he was a "wife", good thing he didn't lose his ass." "A "wife"?" "You know what I mean." "Not the woods!" "Under the car!" "Oh, fuck!" "Who's that?" "It doesn't matter." "What about our IFOR sign?" "That's why they're blasting at us!" "What do they want?" "To burn us!" "Why?" "Crawl to the woods!" "There are mines there!" "Easy, Major." "Help will come soon." "There will be no help." "Major, they'll blow up the fuel canisters. 120 liters!" "Sweet Jesus!" "Faster!" "Max!" "Fucking hell!" "Man, that was close!" "I almost lost my balls." "They were shooting at you?" "They burned our Jeep." "And the tapes?" "Some, but not all." "What's up?" "We got ambushed on the village road by the airport." "Cichy was shooting like crazy from the turret." "When Keller told us to jump, I thought I'll shit my pants." "Cichy was just blasting away from the turret." "The guy went crazy." "We came to bring peace, not to kill." "Corporal Czacki is a lawyer." "From J.A.G." "So what?" "Don't they drink off duty?" "Sir, not in front of the soldiers." "Soldier." "Yes, Sir?" "Drop it, and get lost." "Yes, Sir." "So, you will breathe down my neck for a month, Major." "No." "Just one day." "On the 1st, I take over." "Once the Ministry of Defense sends their representative." "April 1st?" "No." "March." "Sorry." "They promised?" "Gentlemen, don't be naive." "After the scandal with the mercenaries?" "Lieutenant, watch who you're talking to." "I'm here to investigate the clash with the militia in Srebrenica." "And will you investigate today's shootout?" "I have no such orders." "We prevented a lynching in Srebrenica." "You did the lynching." "Spare me the bullshit!" "Gentlemen." "Not while we're drinking." "I'm still in command." "Let's have it, Houdini." "Well, all right." "Were you scared?" "Let's get real." "Were you or not?" "No." "This was the first time I've been shot at." "For 5 months nothing happened, and suddenly this mercenary stuff, then the real battle began." "If father finds out that I was afraid of dying, he'll kill me." "No one will find out." "Just don't brag about it." "Everyone is afraid." ""Senior temptation"." "Cool." "I'll find some vodka." "Get some Zrodlana-no hangover." "If I were you, I would cream his face right away." "Keller got recalled." "We are ordered to stay in the base." "We'll stay here a month, just as safe as at home." "What about that new guy?" "He won't risk his ass." "Keller had no right to put us in danger." "Silence!" "Curfew was a half-hour ago." "Get to bed!" "Wake-up time is six a.m." "Bunch of pigs." "They could've let you stay for one more month." "Don't be smart." "Be alert." "I am alert." "Nothing can happen." "Everybody sits quietly:" "the French, the Norwegians, and us." "Maybe lighting will strike." "Where is that shit?" "I threw it out." "You don't throw away anything worth a penny." "Open the case." "And why?" "Cause I'm the officer in charge." "I know you have the tape." "You can't prove it." "One day I'll get you." "What the hell is with you?" "His wife is a whore, man." "He took it personally." "His wife?" "Major, listen to this." "Get me the IFOR command and request a search and rescue." "That's only 80 kilometers from here." "On Skija's turf." "Corpsman!" "Yes, Sir." "Get Ziarno and Biniek here." "Right away!" "Yes, Sir." "No." "Can't get you down here." "Tall trees, and there's the wind." "I can get you down here about 2 km." " Or here-you can go down the ropes." "Get the ropes." "When are you ready?" "Fifteen minutes." "Get ready." "Fuck your invoices." "Get me supplies for two days." "Vests, grenades, ropes." "I need the invoices." "Ask Keller." "Over there, go." "Which team?" "Only those who want to go." "How do I determine that?" "By referendum?" "They're your people, ask them." "What if they refuse?" "Then I'll talk to them." "Yes, sir." "What the fuck is up?" "!" "The alarm?" "Can't be." "Read the rules." "Search and rescue mission." "Chopper went down in the mountains." "It's curfew time." "Our duty ended an hour ago." "Johnny?" "Good night." "I'm on duty at 6 a.m." "Washing john.?" "The adventure in the army." "Max." "I clean up after Johnny." "The chopper was escorted by the guys from Team One." "Fuck." "I'm not asking you, Houdini." "Great." "You'll regret it." "Don't say I didn't warn you." "Emitting?" "Yes." "You stay put here." "Don't do anything." "What's going on?" "Keller?" "We got a mayday from a Norwegian chopper." "Our orders are to stay on the base." "We can't provoke any reaction." "A chopper went down in the mountains." "There are wounded." "You're not from the Blue Cross?" "Yes, I am." "Zakopane division." "So what?" "We are under the command of the Nordic-Polish IFOR contingent." "Fuck off, Mr. Judge Advocate!" "You're looking at a court-martial, man." "Shut up, Lieutenant Czacki." "Attention!" "Or I'll have you arrested." "Yes, sir!" "At ease." "Radio for permission." "I did." "And?" "The men are ready." "Bring them in, it's cold." "The answer from IFOR... in response to your request, the IFOR command categorically..." "Fax illegible." "Tell them to send again." "Biniek, assemble in 5 minutes." "Major, we can radio HQ and they'll re-send the message." "Just the fax." "Major, I must officially protest." "Shut up Ziarno." "You're staying." "You and you." "Is it risky?" "I'm sure it is." "So, why are you going?" "God wants me to go." "Major, what are you up to?" "I'm going with them." "According to the orders, you are here to support my investigation." "According to the orders, Keller's in charge." "Then how am I to collect the evidence?" "Why don't you join us?" "What do you mean?" "Help me arrest him." "Arrest who?" "Keller." "For what?" "For treason." "But how..." "Come on, you'll find a way." "You and you!" "Move!" "Move!" "Borun, are you ok?" "Yes, Major." "I got a job for you in the camp." "Yes, Major." "What the fuck?" "You wanna stay?" "Borun!" "No, Major." "To the plane, go!" "Yes, Major." "Where to, Titawa?" "Orders came from IFOR." "Let me see it." "Captain, they're leaving." "Take it easy, there's no hurry." "Captain, they're leaving." "Pass it to Major Keller." "Now." "Do it." "Now?" "Right now." "Absolutely." "That's what the order says." "Go ahead, go!" "Major Keller!" "Here's IFOR's reply." "You're to stay in the camp." "That's an order." "Stick near me." "Keller told to us to spread out." "Who am I talking to?" "Yes, corporal." "Pilot, pilot, over!" "Pilot here." "We'll be there in 6 hours." "Be there at 1 1." "We'll be transporting wounded." "Over and out." "Cichy!" "To the north." "Spread out!" "How many times do I have to repeat it?" "Something wrong, corporal?" "Everything's fine." "Then keep moving." "It's so cold..." "No fucking chance for an intelligent chat." "Fuck..." "What is it?" "How do I know?" "Do you see anything?" "Yes." "Wind?" "No." "We got to check it out, Major." "Stay here." "Czack i..." "Take one man and check the area." "I'm not your flunky." "Right now!" "And no back-talk." "Corporal!" "Let's go." "What?" "Why him?" "Because he's a wimp." "A minor loss." "That was something else." "What a creature." "The power of nature." "We aren't ready for modern life." "We'll fade like dinosaurs, man." "Don't smoke any more today, O.K.?" "Did you see Bor?" "His face was greener than his uniform." "Shut up!" "You're on patrol." "Yeah, man." "Shut up." "Max, Houdini... follow me." "Major, over here!" "Stay where you are." "Wrzesinski..." "And Walinski." "Wolanski, Major." "They kept the fire up through the night and left in the morning." "Where to?" "Let's go." "Are we backing up?" "We're following them." "I got two people there." "Where?" "Way down." "Would you rather save yourself going up?" "Come on down." "You've heard what the major said." "Don't fool around, hawkeye!" "Quiet!" "You too, Yogi." "What do you want?" "If you went there you'd find nothing but Bulgarian whores." "Corporal Borun, report back this evening!" "No problem." "As soon as I finish straightening out these hills." "Attention!" "Shut up!" "What is it, US Army?" "Jaworski." "I don't remember the other one." "Someone wasn't too easy on them." "Skija." "Skija, Major." "They took his watch." "They went by Jeep." "Their base must be up there somewhere." "So, we've found them." "We can go back." "We'll go back when we find all the bodies." "Do I need to remind you who's in charge here?" "You can arrest me at midnight..." "until then, stay out of my way." "Say no more." "Johnny!" "Get me the chopper!" "We're rescheduling to 20:00 hours." "Borun on the watch. 50 meters each." "One up, the other down." "Why us again?" "He's taking it out on me." "It's just easy to call you, since you've got the same name." "Woodpecker 1, it's Alpha, over." "He went nuts." "Wants to drag us into the mountains." "Fuck it, man." "If anything happens I'm gone." "We don't even know how many men there were in the chopper." "I haven't seen so many bodies in my whole life." "We're chasing bears, and getting closer to Skija." "We had to secure the water supply." "And the communications." "That's what we had to do." "Even his people say it's getting dangerous." "What about my people?" "I won't risk their lives." "What will you do?" "I'll do whatever is necessary." "Come on!" "Let's get moving!" "Max, get Borun!" "But my cigarettes are down there!" "Jarek, are you all right?" "Fuck off!" "Jarek!" "Fuck off!" "Fine." "First bear, now this." "I'm not gonna make it." "When we find Jaworski and Gwint I'll tear their legs off." "Yes, sir..." "We'll go with Cichy." "You stay here." "If anything happens, run to the base." "Repeat." "We have to stay..." "I'm the ranking officer here." "Talk to me." "Then you repeat." "Stay quiet, if anything happens, get back to the base." "Good." "Keep an eye on everything." "Biniek." "Yes, Sir." "Nine, and two captives." "There may be others in the tents." "You're right." "Five more." "Two more, way down, the other two, up there." "20 taken by surprise; they wouldn't even have a chance to scream." "How about silently, at night?" "I can give it a try, but shooting them would be simpler." "Tell the boys to stay in hiding." "We'll try when it gets dark." "Nice ass, babe." "What did you do to him?" "No time for talk." "Come." "Everything will be fine, Nicole." "It's over." "You got your fucking signals crossed soldier, I'm in charge here." "Major Keller told us to sit quiet and not to mess around." "Biniek, get his gun." "Who's gonna protect us when you take his gun away?" "It was worth coming to this war, just to see something like this." "Nice to see you, madame." "You're from Paris, I suppose?" "Yes, and I want to get back there." "Allow me to keep you company." "What's going on?" "Who's on watch?" "The Bulgarian." "What Bulgarian?" "Give me that." "And what now?" "Get the people." "Blackbeard, you'll get yours." "Quick, move it!" "My government will appreciate this." "Press Representative Dano Ivanov." "We were on the way back from the meeting with the French forces and those rebels shot us down, probably with rocket fire." "And the lady?" "A journalist from French TV." "All our people died in the accident." "Yours were killed by Skija's men." "We'll get you a car at the base." "My apologies..." "I behaved badly." "Forget it." "No, you saved our lives." "And a few weeks of captivity..." "They would have killed us." "They were just waiting for Skija." "No way." "At least we have a plan." "For you." "And they succeeded." "We couldn't move any faster." "What have you done to him?" "Does it make any difference?" "Yes." "I want him dead." "Don't think about it any more." "They won't reach us, will they?" "I don't think so." "You did it." "Yeah..." "Major..." "Alpha here..." "This man is the government representative." "Fuck him." "They're all bunch of thieves." "Maybe, but they will save your ass, even though you ignored orders." "Your ass, because I'm out of here." "So you became a hero again." "Yeah..." "How many times do I have to repeat myself?" "Spread it!" "Hide!" "Cichy!" "Dym!" "Oh my God!" "Max got shot!" "Spread out!" "Fire!" "Biniek, give me a new magazine!" "Don't let me die, Jarek!" "Don't let me die, Jarek!" "I'm dying!" "You got morphine, hold on!" "You'll be fine!" "Spread out!" "Cichy..." "Kusz, take the lieutenant and Biniek and fan out to the right!" "What?" "Okay." "Biniek!" "Shit!" "Sergeant, Follow me!" "They're shooting." "What the fuck?" "Follow me!" "Yes, sir!" "Biniek!" "Biniek!" "Look at me." "Yes, sir." "Can you see me?" "Yes, sir." "Then take Bor and Johnny and go left as far as you can." "But Major, they're shooting!" "Biniek, look at me." "They might miss you, but I won't." "Yes, Sir." "Jarek!" "It hurts!" "Bor, come here!" "I have to stay with my brother!" "Leave your brother and go!" "What about my brother?" "Get the fuck out of here!" "And my brother?" "Man, you knocked off two men!" "They're dead!" "Johnny, you go with Biniek." "You want me to shoot these people?" "You can scold them, now get the fuck out." "Jesus, they are killing each other." "Man, they really are." "Fuck-heads!" "Soldier Houdini, where is your gun?" "I don't know." "Get it and come here." "I'm a logistics assistant." "Take the gun!" "Fuck you!" "Are you going to shoot me, Major?" "Where's Ivanov?" "I don't know." "He ran away." "They're going to kill us." "Let's get out of here." "What do they want from us?" " Let's go, get me out of here." "Enough!" "Don't go too far." "How do you know?" "I know." "They're fucked up." "Civilians." "I'll take those two at the back, you take the ones in the middle, and you, Lieutenant, you take those three behind the tree." "Behind the tree?" "Yeah, take them out." "Major, ask them to surrender." "We could just kill them." "Are you crazy?" "Why should I kill three innocent people?" "Because they are the ones at hand." "You can't reach the others." "Czacki, it's an order." "Fuck that order." "Fuck what you want, but kill them first, or you won't leave that forest alive." "Major!" "Fire!" "Keller!" "Listen!" "Do you hear me?" "What were you searching for?" "He's out of it." "Goner." "Listen to me." "Now you know what our job is." "This is war, and you are soldiers who must kill to survive - or be killed." "Fuck!" "We are the peace unit!" "Our job is to protect communications and water supplies." "We are the peace unit!" "You're a soldier." "What the fuck are you holding in your hands?" "A bucket?" "I've got $650 in pay." "What are you holding in your hands?" "Is this a bucket?" "This is not a fucking bucket!" "What is it?" "A machine gun!" "Well, it's not a water pistol." "Major, I'm a pacifist." "I'm fucking useless." "They're useless." "You can do anything." "Look at them." "The little one was praying to God," "God didn't save him." "You must save yourself, understand?" "Let's bury him." "No time." "They will not forgive us." "Cichy, let's move out." "This politician is history." "It's his problem." "Yours is to cross the enemy territory in 2 days." "Houdini." "Johnny." "Knock at the door." "Ladies and gentlemen!" "We are IFOR soldiers... and we need your help." "You ask them, Johnny, will you?" "Open the door, or we burn the house!" "We need help." "We will not harm you." "Biniek, you're on guard in the upper village," "Cichy, you're in the lower village." "Switch in 2 hours." "Yes sir." "Jarek!" "It hurts!" "OK." "What's up?" "What do you want from me?" "Because of you I lost a man, and another soon will be dead." "What's going on here?" "Tell me at once." "Take it easy Keller." "Get lost." "Major, it's midnight." "1st of March." "I'm taking over." "Go fuck yourself!" "This is nothing more than mutiny." "Johnny, Houdini, go switch with Cichy and Biniek." "Stay here, that's an order." "I'll have you court-martialled." "They're not after us because of the bitch." "Something is fishy, don't you get it?" "I'm in command." "The bitch knows what it is." "I'm in command, Keller." "She knows." "Or maybe he knows." "How did you catch him?" "Fuck you." "Walked into me roaming around." "Get something out of him." "You're breaking international law." "I'm a diplomat, member of this country's government, and you're behaving like bandits." "Why are you so important that the chopper was shot down... and my people are being killed?" " Because of this." " What's this?" " Property of my government." " I'm not asking whose, but what?" "The tape shows an execution in one of the villages." "His boss the Prime Minister ordered it." "So what." "Think." "With this, one can rule, win the election, or let those nationalist pigs create another war." "This tape is power, or money." "How do you know?" "I slept with him." "He promised me heaps of gold." "Now they're in your hands." "Lieutenant, you're the most stupid and the most honest." "Guard this with your life." "Johnny, keep an eye on that prick." "Time to sleep." "Skija told them to get us, but didn't say why." "Now he won't give up, and you won't get us out of here." "The unit is mine." "Human life is at risk." "It's our lives too." "I'm taking over, is that clear?" "You are not." "For 30 mods minutes the unit is mine." "You have your orders." "The 29th." "What?" "Today is February 29th." "This is a leap year." "Major Keller is still in command for 24 hours." "Why don't you like me?" "Do you like yourself?" "No." "I made my way through university sleeping with the professors, passed the exams sleeping with the adjuncts." "I don't like myself." "Why are you telling me this?" "For the first time in my life I can do some good." "Only if I had the tape." "I don't care." "You don't believe it yourself." "What's your name, Keller?" "All day I thought you were a hero, and I fell in love with you." "Now I see you're just a coward." "Thank you." "For what?" "For the way you are thanking me for saving your life." "I don't give a shit about my life." "There are more important things." "You don't like me." "I saw you looking at that peasant girl." "What's that, grass?" ""Strong"." "Polish cigarettes." "He fell asleep?" "Can't tell." "But he's not dead." "We're out of morphine." "What if he wakes up?" "You must hold on." "With empty hands?" "I want to speak to the Lieutenant." "Will you translate?" "I will." "My government will issue a strong protest." "All of you will be held responsible." "He's saying that his government will take political action." "And all of us will be held responsible." "I know nothing." "I'm just obeying orders." "Go after them." "He's saying that he is only obeying the orders." "Do you speak French?" "No." "There are so many things I want to tell you." "So many." "You don't have to say anything." "Why?" "I've only seen soldiers who kill and pillage... but you're ready to give your life for mine." "That's the only thing I know how to do." "That's all I need." "This evidence is valuable." "You'll get a reward... 100,000 marks." "100,000 marks, Lieutenant." "A lot of dough." "Plenty for everyone if he's not lying." "Enough for me to finish my house." "My father-in-law was a tailor." "He died and work stopped." "I would buy the best Ibanez guitar..." "What do I tell him?" "Tell him, Johnny, that... we are officers of the Polish Army." "We can't be bought." "I'm not an officer." "I am risking my ass for $3600 a month, before taxes." "That's an order." "Yes sir." "We are the Polish Army officers." "We can't be bought..." "Beautiful country you've got." "Why man, why?" "Son of a bitch!" "Should we go after him, Major?" "Tell the locals to bury him." "Let's move on." "He can't be far." "I said we're going." "But Major..." "You want to go after him with your brother on your back?" "That way is about 7 hours away from the base." "Easy path, everyone would choose it." "Going southwest takes about 12 hours with plenty of climbing." "With the wounded we can't do it." "What about them?" "They'll think we chose the easy way." "Let's trick them." "Get some stuff and drop it in the mountains." "Weapons and blood." "Will they buy it?" "No." "Water!" "Here." "Jarek you know I'm not afraid to die anymore." "Don't talk." "Tell father..." "Let's go Bor." "In a moment, Sergeant." "Why?" "My brother died." "Keller!" "Borun's dead!" "Well." "Now they can be tricked." "Yes, Major." "We have to trick them." "Borun!" "I'll go with Cichy, major." "Here." "It must look like an accident." "Let me help you, or we won't catch up." "I'll do it." "Turn around." "Bor, we have to go." "Tell Keller that I've got a job to finish." "Skija will be tricked even more." "You won't come back." "You motherfuckers." "You shot down the chopper." "What the fuck you're saying?" "You could've fucking killed me." "I wasn't here when my people did it." "Tell me who did it, and I will execute the asshole." "You wanted to stay undercover." "Undercover, not in a grave." "Am I supposed to work with idiots who shoot their own people?" "Where's the tape?" "The Poles have it." "Why didn't you leave it here?" "While I was held prisoner by your morons?" "They would have raped me if they didn't fuck that French girl." "Why did you escape?" "The Poles got me." "Should I ask them to let me stay?" "Where are they now?" "They stayed in the village." "They have two ways to their base." "Then we have to split, it's no good." "No we don't." "They say Keller is sly." "He wants us to think he chose the easy way." "I think they're here." "I was right." "Cease fire." "Filip, translate it." "What is this?" "A message from a friend." "We're going Southwest." "Stop!" "Biniek." "Biniek." "Take cover." "I'll take care of myself, Major." "Fuck Biniek!" "Get down!" "They've got a mortar!" "Stay down." "They're cutting through." "They've got us." "Cichy." "We're screwed, major." "No chance?" "Keller, give me that tape." "Or we'll blow you up." "Give me the tape." "We have to give it to them." "What?" "We'll take care of this later." "We don't know what's on the tape." "We didn't witness anything." "Give me the fucking tape!" "This can be proof in the international court!" "Give it, or I'll kill you." "No." "Give him the tape!" "You can't give them that tape." "Shut up, sister." "Give me that." "Assholes." "Come here." "Stop the fire!" "They are careful about the tape." " Why?" "I'm a soldier like you." "The tape." "I told you not to cross my path anymore." "We're going to burn that village." "Want to join us?" "Now we're even." "Next time I'll kill you." "Are we alive?" "Yes Major, they're gone." "Why did they let us go?" "Let's go." "We can make it before dusk." "They went to burn the village." "To kill the Gypsies." "We need to get to base and inform IFOR." "They might send a patrol." "We're supposed to protect them." "With all due respect, major, there are four of us." "Five." "Are you crazy, Lieutenant?" "Yes." "Count me out." "I've had enough of shooting!" "Enough of war!" "Enough of everything!" "That's enough." "You're under arrest." "Again?" "You're not fit to command." "I won't cover for you." "What are you talking about?" "In Syria you caught Klepczynski with 50 grams of hash." "You didn't confiscate it." "They got totally stoned, and walked straight into minefield." "You covered for them." "But it was you who sent them to death." "You want to do the same?" "You're lying." "No." "You always knew it." "No." "Houdini, arrest him." "I'm not an M.P." "Besides he can only be arrested by an officer." "Cichy." "I'm only the platoon leader, Major." "And I'm a Sargeant." "And I don't give a flying shit about anything and anybody." "What happened?" "When lvanow wanted to take a leak, I told Biniek to go with him." "So what." "And he asked Johnny." "He always does that." "Let's go, Major." "Yes, let's go." "But he went on watch alone." "Cover me, Biniek!" "We'll both die." "It's worth it." "Or not." "Ivanov promised him 100,000." "You came back?" "Maybe this uniform means something." "It was a good team." "Major, I'd like your permission to talk to Major Keller." "Go ahead." "Since you are being released, Major I wanted..." "We went through a lot, also in Syria... you were always all right." "You're a tough son of a bitch, Major, but nobody ever aimed at me, or Max," "and now he is lying there, in a coffin." "He wanted to buy a husky for his children." "That's why he came here." "Now his wife will not buy it for them, for sure." "You think that I'm a coward, since I didn't go with you." "And I can't shoot and don't want to die," "And I'm not as crazy as Cichy." "You think I'm a coward, since I can't defend those who can't defend themselves." "You're here to defend the others!" "Maybe I am those others?" "Those who want to survive?" "And to make money?" "Those who want to live." "When I was looking at those coffins, I hated you." "Suddenly I understood, that maybe they died so I could continue doing my business." "I wanted to keep this, but you know what to do with it." "Houdini, what did you give them?" "Attention!" "To the right!" "Battalion leader Major Keller is reporting his battalion for official change of command." "Thank you." "Boldly, Major, sir!" "Czacki!" "You're all right." "Someone came to say good bye." "Kusz, it was a good unit." "Take care of it." "What's your first name?" "Edek." "Mine is Czesiek." "Do you ever get to Paris?" "No, why?" "You're leaving the Balkans?" "There is nothing here for me." "Before you go, do this." "Keller, you are..." "I'm a soldier." "That's all." "I, a soldier in the Polish Army... do solemnly swear... to faithfully serve the Republic of Poland." "To defend its independence and its borders." "To protect the Constitution." "To defend the honour of the Polish soldier." "To protect the military flag." "For the sake of my homeland... be always ready to sacrifice my life and blood." "So help me God."
