- Just kind of very Frenchified!

- Settle down.

Go and apologise.

No.

I don't want to stay here now.

Let's go back.

- No.

- What do you mean, no?

That's my business.

Mine too.

That's why I want to go back.

Come on, dad, let's go.

I'll drive!

I want to stay.

So give me the documents.

Come on, give me them.

And the keys.

ye.

Daddy!

Hi, darling, hi.

Hiiii!

Where are you, the pair of you?

Near erlin...

hey said on the television

that the roads are an ice rink.

Sure. We'll be careful.

Your voice sounds strange.

I was asleep.

Is dad holding up OK?

Not too tired?

No, everything's fine.

ell him we've got the date

of the nex+t hearing now.

he hearing with

that ex+- Security Service officer.

- Really? When?

- Next Wednesday.

It'd be a good thing

if the three of us went.

We need to show them

that we're not afraid.

Yes. Yes, you're right.

That ex-Security officer's

incredibly slippery.

Apparantly he ran some kind

of dodgy business in the 1990s,

but nobody's ever been able to prove

anything against him.

Dad hasn't done anything

to deserve all this.

Eva...

Yes?

I miss you.

I miss you, too.

Take care.

And kiss dad for me.

- I will.

- Bye bye.

Hi.

- Hi Rysiek.

- Where's Zygmunt.

He stayed in France.

Sh*t!

- Are the jackals still here?

- Take it easy. They left in the end!

ut not all of them.

I've noticed this Land Rover.

It started showing up a while back.

A Land Rover?

Yes, black, with tinted windows.

Probably a photographer.

What can we do?

That's life as a star.

If he gets to be too much

of a pain in the ass, give us a nod.

We'll send Miss Rose to see to him!

Won't we, Rosie?

- ye Rysiek.

- ye. ye.

Eva?

Look who's here.

Daddy!

Careful, he's only just finished eating.

Good evening, Mum.

Hello!

So, I'll make some tea.

Look what I've got.

And what's this?

- A digger.

- A digger!

Tommy, here comes the car! See!

- Has he been good?

- Yes!

He's always good when he's with me.

Why have you brought those cups?

They might get broken.

Mum!

How was the trip?

It was really rough this time.

Round Essen, it was raining so hard that

the trucks were skidding all over the place.

I hit the hard shoulder.

Thought I'd just let rip...

Everyone here's talking about your father.

Why is he keeping quiet?

People think it's odd.

My father's silent because

he's in a state of shock.

Until the whole thing's sorted out,

he's staying in France.

With his family.

It's better that way.

In that case, I shall pray for him.

- Come on, treasure.

- What?

Let's go.

No!

rilliant.

Now the people who had their doubts

won't have them any more.

After all, if he wasn't guilty,

he wouldn't have run away abroad.

Tadeusz talked him into it.

O.

O, I understand. He panicked...

ut Pawel, you lied to me.

I'm sorry...

Is there anything else I should know?

No.

- Good morning, Roman!

- Good morning!

- What are you here for?

- We're delivering your order!

Did I place an order? I'm cancelling.

I don't do business with commies.

- Tell that to your old man.

- What right have you got to say that?

- His father was an agent.

- That's just a rumour!

My brother worked with Zygmunt

down the mine, so I know.

ecause he gabbed to me that

it was Zygmunt who started it!

There's a whole security police cordon

and he takes them on with a brick?

None of our boys wanted a fight.

They just wanted to yell slogans!

They'd have got the sh*t beaten out of

them. ut there'd have been no corpses!

Only Daddy had to f***ing

give things a shove...

- Stop it!

- No, I won't!

ecause when I think of your dad...

He must be turning in his grave,

seeing who you're with!

- My father wasn't an agent, got it?

- Pawel, calm down.

Clear off!

I don't want to see you here!

Come on, dad!

It's starting again.

What?

Nothing.

What?

Remember Zuza?

The one who went to London?

Yes.

She wrote and told me that her boss

is opening a new seaside hotel.

And he's looking for people

Clean the rits' crappers?

No way, no thanks.

Straight off you think 'clean the toilets'.

No, it's supposed to be a luxury joint.

Well-being, water workouts, you know...

Zuza said to send her a CV, because

they're looking for instructors.

We'd go for a year.

We'd finally be able to put something by.

And your mother?

What'd she do without you?

I've already talked to her about it.

She's for it!

Always ready to make a sacrifice.

She's perfectly well aware how much

we'd make there. She's a realist!

And your degree? Your designs?

Look who's talking.

I didn't have any choice.

What'd we live on without

the second-hand rag trade?

On your love of sport, Pawel!

You always had the talent.

You'd have found work with no trouble.

Is it suddenly bothering you

that we live with dad?

Not at all.

I love him like my own father.

You never wanted to go before.

If we don't leave Poland, Pawel,

we'll never have a place to call our own.

So, in fact, living under one roof

with my father is a problem, right?

Give me a break.

Answer me!

Why?

- Pawel, come on, he's not even here.

- ut he'll be back.

We'll see.

I'm telling you, he'll be back.

You're starting to believe those sons-of-

b*tches. That's what this is about.

You've never spoken

to me like that before.

You believe that sh*t, right?

I'll stay at Mum's

for a few days with Tomek.

I don't want him to see us quarrelling.

To me, Pawel, to me!

Are you f***ed up, or what?

Well?

I've found you wheels to die for, man.

Make up your mind!

How much?

2.4cc, TDI, 2005...

How much?

- Thirty-five grand.

- Forget it.

- You can pay in two instalments.

- Forget it.

Don't worry about it, man.

What are you talking about?

It's just politics.

Sh*t from start to finish.

I'd like to have seen them back then,

this lot who're wagging

the moral finger now.

I'll bet they weren't any better.

If you're living in a free country,

it's thanks to people like my father.

- Do you get it?

- O, I understand, chill.

And believe me,

I don't give a f*** about politics!

NEW OLESLAW MINE

Who did you want to see?

I'm here for a meeting

with the head of Solidarity.

- Name?

- owal. Pawel owal.

THE FALLEN - DECEMER 1981

Pawel?

Good morning.

Hi.

I don't have long. Come on.

- What's the matter?

- I thought you might be able to help me.

- I want to go to the official archives.

- Excuse me. Yes.

No, in 10 minutes, please.

Yes. Goodbye.

I want to go see if there's a file

on my father in the official archives...

There was one on every opposition activist.

And your father, he was a leader, right?

Right. I want to check out

what's on that file.

Hasn't he done that yet?

To tell you the truth...

he panicked a bit.

He's afraid that there's

a conspiracy and everything.

I'd rather take a look myself.

I can't help you.

Only Zygmunt can see his file.

I wanted to phone him about it,

get him to take action immediately,
