Hostages Page #4

Get dressed.

This is what you'll say to your son.

Read it.

I can't say this.

Can I use my own words?

It's clear how well you've raised him

using your own words.

That's enough.

What happened?

- I'll talk to my son.

- There's no need.

We're starting the assault.

Comrade General, ready for take over.

Proceed.

Beryoza 1, Beryoza 2, Beryoza 3,

Ready?

Ready.

Go.

Report. We are inside the plane.

Sandro, my son.

Getaway from the window,

that's forbidden.

I told you,

I warned you.

You should have told your son.

You damn conman.

A few scoundrels

who didn't want to live in their country,

killed 3 innocent people,

true patriots.

Today, we must return their bodies

to the earth.

This tragic event

has disturbed all of Georgia.

And this is at a time when our republic

is rapidly developing

and the name of the Georgian people

rings with pride.

A time when our achievements

have been multiplied

and we have tasted the

fruits of our labor,

it is at this moment

that we received a traitor's blow.

What did they want?

They had everything.

What did they have?

Did they lack something?

Don't talk to me like the announcer on TV

who is reading a script.

Stop the car.

Get out.

What is this drivel?!

That's it's hell here

and heaven there.

How do you know

how life is everywhere?

Here, everything is beautiful,

and there, everything is different.

It's a shame

that they didn't get out.

In exactly 2 months

they would be begging their parents

to bring them back.

How do you know

how life is over there?

You're right,

I don't know.

Because I haven't seen anything

and I don't want you to tell me about it.

I don't want to have

one of these dissident conversations.

What's wrong with you?

Is your conscience gnawing at you?

They're all my children.

My body and blood.

But they'll answer

for their actions.

We're done here.

In the name of the students and the Young

Communist League of the Academy of Arts,

we denounce the heinous act

of our ex-classmates.

Our youth student organization

fully supports the opinion

of the university board.

The hijackers must be punished

as severely as possible.

They're not worthy of being citizens

of our great Soviet motherland.

Shame on them.

Comrades,

what did they lack?

Their families had everything.

Everything.

Their parents should be jailed

together with them.

- Did something happen?

- Nothing, continue on.

- Does Daniil live here?

- Yes.

What's going on?

The suspects

directed us to you.

They claim

that you were their spiritual leader.

Did they gather

at your place?

I don't know.

Did you take them to church?

That's how I live.

Yeah, your profession

is quite unusual.

Do you recognize this?

We confiscated it

from one of the hijackers,

he claims

that you gave it to him.

Yes, it's mine.

So you used this

to cloud the minds of children?

With what?

Music and the Gospel?

According to the laws of our country, this

is propaganda of the bourgeois life-style.

You should have known that.

Are you trying

to play stupid?

We'll jail you

with the rest of your friends.

I wasn't

on the plane.

Sit down.

How can you atone for your actions?

What can you say to the families

of the murdered?

You had everything!

What were you missing?

Do you still want to go to the West?

Still think the West is superior

to our Soviet system?

How could you betray such values

as friendship and humanity?!

This is Gospel that you read,

Doesn't it include the 10 commandments?

Doesn't it say 'Thou shalt not kill'?

In your closing words say

that you are guilty.

I already said that.

Yes, but clearer.

But you told me that

if I take the blame on myself,

that they would

get a reduced sentence?

Yes, of course, that makes sense.

You weren't on the plane at all.

They won't punish you.

Alright, thank you.

Your honor, I have provided

evidence of guilt

of the defendants:

Chheidze, Lasha and Irakli Barbakadze,

Koberidze and Maisuradze.

Now, I urge you to consider

the severity of their crime.

Their actions led to deaths

of innocent passengers

and members of the flight crew.

The last word is given

to Daniil Cheidze.

They had nothing to do

with it.

It was all me,

I set them to it.

Cheidze, don't take so much on yourself,

you don't need to say that much.

Yes,

but I spoke to them.

The investigation has already determined

what you said to them.

Do you understand?

Sit down.

Anna Maisuradze.

You may speak.

No amount of freedom

is worth the life of another.

I'm sorry,

I don't know what to say.

Alright.

Nikoloz Koberidze.

It's really hard for me

to speak.

I don't know,

I won't be able to apologize.

What would that look like?

It would be insulting

to the victims.

The court rules to sentence.

Anna Maisuradze to

15 years of incarceration.

Daniil Chheidze

is sentenced to death.

But you promised,

you lied to me.

Irakli and Lasha Barbakadze,

sentenced to death.

Nikolas Koberidze: Sentenced to death.

They must have been buried

here.

I think this is

where they buried the executed.

- Aren't you cold, don't you have a hat?

- No.

So many years have passed.

Can we even identify the bodies?

It's terrible.

They could have at least shown the parents

their graves.

- Wait in the car.

- What?

Wait in the car.

- And you?

- I'll come.

Don't,

don't go there.

- Is it Nika?

- No, it's not Nika.

Who is it then,

where is my son?

I saved your things, you know.

Here they're.

Your jacket.

You know

what I always think about?

The day before, at the wedding,

you were so happy.

What happened, Anna?

Did he tell you?

Was he resentful at me

about something?

Not at all!

He said that if we had left,

we would have brought you with us.

How stupid.

Who would have let you out of the country?

Why did you drag your girlfriend

into it?

And who did he leave me with?

He was my only son.

Stupid boy.

I know how scared he must have been

in the plane.

And those poor passengers?

Where were you going?

How could you have decided on that?

We always heard stories about

how horrible the country

was that you lived in; about

how unhappy you were.

I don't know what you heard,

but nobody wanted to leave like that.

We didn't want to leave like that

either.

Please make your way.

Please take your seat.

Dear passengers, please buckle up.

- Are you afraid of flying?
