Make sure they know we're not alone.

What's new, Karol?

Has Major Sucharski had anything to eat?

Nothing. He has no appetite.

At least bring him a hot drink.

I was just about to get water.

Please let me take charge

over my base again.

You know that's very dangerous.

Alright, try.

Yes, sir.

I have a request...

I have a son. If I...

- You won't die, Benek.

That's an order. Understand?

To the end, to the end...

"And they were freed,

"four angels...

"ready for the hour...

"the day, the month, and the year.

"And I heard a voice...

"from a fourth figure...

"which said...

"Come... come...

"Kill me!

Come kill me!

May this day be the last."

What's going on here?

Leave him!

Is that an order?

He's had enough!

Don't untie him,

or he'll kill us all.

You won't push around my men!

- This is my guardhouse!

- Platoon Buder!

Back to your posts!

You will both die.

Did you finally understand?!

You're a guest here.

And I'll teach you good manners.

Leave it.

The Germans have entered sector one's

blind spot. Gryczman can't see them!

What's going on over there?

- It's probably torn down again.

- Why aren't they shooting?!

Officer Gryczman.

No, we can't see them.

I understand.

The Germans are here.

Hit the ground, everyone!

Hit the ground!

Next time

you don't fire at the enemy,

I'll consider it treason! Understood?

Yes, sir.

And I won't hesitate

to shoot you myself!

Yes, sir.

- You're going back to your base.

- Yes, sir.

Maybe the power plant

is operational?

You'll change the boys.

- What'?

- Change.

You return to the barracks.

Finally, I'll get some sleep.

Alright, boys, let's go.

- They're coming.

- Who? Germans?

No, our guys.

To the power plant.

Alright, let's go.

We've got Germans

at the power plant.

- How many?

- How the hell should I know!

We have to get rid of them.

When we get rid of them,

we can count them.

- Shoot!

- They'll destroy us!

When they catch us,

they'll kill us.

Don't shoot! We're Polish!

It's a trap. Don't believe them.

Exit, one by one.

Hands behind your head!

These are my men.

Drop the rifle!

Drop it!

Why are you...

shooting at your own?

At your own friends!

Sir, we wanted to come back,

but they kept bombing, so...

And...

you finally came back.

Captain, they're calling from

the power plant.

Dabrowski, report

Yes, sir.

Who will do it'?

- You got the order.

- But now you're in charge.

So I'm supposed to shoot my men.

Let's go.

Stop.

You first.

Go.

They're running away.

Don't shoot!

STRONG, SET,

READY TO GO:

What are you doing?

Pick that up.

Yes, sir, Captain, sir.

At ease.

Westerplatte is still fighting.

Fighting like hell.

Sit down.

Sit down!

23 years old...

wife and son.

Boy from Kielc.

Had to die.

Damn postman from Lodz.

Wanted to sail to America.

What...

too young to live?

And these I don't even know.

Too late.

The Germans will crush us.

Know why, sir?

Know why?!

No.

Then I'll tell you.

We, officer...

don't deserve to win.

Stand up, soldier!

So shoot me, it's all the same.

You're finally here.

How's our situation?

Soldiers' morale is good.

They want to fight.

We can defend ourselves

for quite some time.

Ammunition and food surplus

should last for weeks.

Then what?

The French and British

will come by night? Yes?

Do you know they've

declared war on the Germans?

I'm in charge. Or have you forgotten?

Or maybe you forgot to inform me

about something?

The British and French

will soon help us.

The Germans are idiots, right, Kuba?

Sorry, Major,

I don't understand.

Think they didn't mine

the Danish Straits?

There's still the air force.

So far, I've only seen German planes.

Eight soldiers died in the air raid.

That's a lot.

- I thought that...

- I don't think I want to know what.

Eight at once...

is a lot. Too many.

You're forgetting about

German losses, which are huge.

This is war.

You have to be prepared

for the closest bullet to get you.

Who said that? Still remember?

I was thinking solely about myself.

I am an officer of the Polish Army

and I'm prepared to die.

Those young men don't deserve

to die in such a senseless way.

They're not dying for nothing...

What makes you so sure?

Yesterday I transferred

the command station to sector 6.

We're waiting there for you...

after you finish freshening up.

So Sector 5 is down. One more powerful

offensive and the Germans will invade.

They won't succeed.

There's a new outpost.

Major, Warsaw has just

announced...

Westerplatte is still standing.

That's new... I probably wouldn't

have known without them.

That's why they're playing

church music.

- All of Poland believes in us.

- How are the French?

Strange, but they're not talking

about fighting.

No messages. As if everything was normal.

As if there was no war.

Captain...

you've been lying to your men.

I'm making sure

they don't break down,

because that would mean the end.

This is the end!

But you don't understand.

Or you refuse to.

Captain...

I've got strong "Farmers Tobacco"

in my office, come over.

I have something for you.

This is soil from my father's grave.

If I die, please bury me with it.

Managing okay?

Gangrene will eventually kill

all the wounded,

and I'm powerless.

Soon they'll start dropping

like flies.

Will you tell Kuba?

He knows.

He'd rather die than give up.

For later. Tobacco from Galicia.

But this... keep it close.

- It's an honor, Major.

- Go.

Or not... Enough is enough.

Tell Piotrowski to convene

all the officers tonight.

There'll be a meeting.

- What are these two doing here?

- They were panicking, so...

Captain Dabrowski ordered them

locked up in here.

Morale is the most important.

Those two are a bad influence on everyone.

Okay, let them stay.

Captain... Major... tanks...

Tanks are coming!

Put armor-piercing tape.

- Those aren't tanks.

- What'?

Those aren't tanks, dammit!

Armoured train?

Go for it...

Masks.

Have the soldiers put on masks.

- It's fuel.

You can't be sure.

Order all soldiers to wear masks.

Not necessary.

Remember, there's a meeting in an hour.

Don'! piss me off, Buder!!!

There won't be a change!

We don't have soldiers!

But Major, you promised

you'd send a change...

I'm countermanding

Major Sucharskfs order.

And that's that! Period!

Back to your posts.

But I was supposed to lay out

the situation.

You're no longer needed.

Get some sleep.

Not too many of us.

Did you back out

the endangered guardhouse?

No need.

The fire's dying out.

So, what are we waiting for?

Good thing you're here.

How does the harbour situation look?

We're holding them off.

Any new radio reports?

The news is...

getting worse.

That's irrelevant.

The situation is dire.

We all know that.

I think tomorrow,

we should surrender.

I want your opinion.

Lieutenant?

Major, doesn't that medal...

obligate you to anything?

Is that all...

you have to say?

Captain.

The wounded should be
