"The Boy in the Woods" is a poignant historical drama based on a true story. Set during World War II, the film follows the harrowing journey of a young Jewish boy named Aron, who escapes the horrors of the Holocaust by hiding in the dense forests of Poland. Alone and terrified, Aron must rely on his wits and the sparse help of sympathetic villagers to survive. Along the way, he forms a bond with a solitary woodsman named Janek, who teaches him essential survival skills. As the war rages on, Aron’s struggle for survival becomes a powerful tale of resilience, hope, and the enduring human spirit.

00:07:43Business, boy.
00:07:45No.
00:07:51Please, I'm looking for my auntie out there.
00:07:55Poor Jew boy.
00:07:57Try the cemetery.
00:07:58Maybe you'll find your aunt there.
00:08:00♪♪

00:08:20♪♪
00:08:30♪♪
00:08:40♪♪
00:08:50♪♪
00:08:53Auntie!
00:08:55Oh, my son.
00:08:57Thank God.
00:09:00I heard there was a roundup.
00:09:02Where's your mommy?
00:09:03Sonja?
00:09:04She told me to find you.
00:09:06She wouldn't let me get on the trucks with her.
00:09:11Let's get you out of here.
00:09:26They're clearing us all out.
00:09:28Your uncle and I have found space to hide here in town,
00:09:31the bunker, with a small group.
00:09:34Good.
00:09:35I'll stay with you until mommy comes for me.
00:09:40They won't allow children.
00:09:43Why not?
00:09:44I'm basically not even a child anymore.
00:09:47Mommy even says I'm a little man.
00:09:53Your mommy knew this day might come.
00:09:56She said she would protect me.
00:09:58I found a farm where you can hide.
00:10:04You're abandoning me.
00:10:06You're abandoning me just like she did.
00:10:08Max!
00:10:10Your mommy did not abandon you.
00:10:16I don't want to be alone.
00:10:18No, you won't be alone.
00:10:21And when this is over, we'll come get you
00:10:24and together we'll find her.
00:10:28Now come here.
00:10:40Come on.
00:10:56Hey.
00:10:58Come on.
00:11:10Come on.
00:11:19The sun is up.
00:11:40Come on.
00:12:08My name is Yoshko.
00:12:10My name is Stashek.
00:12:19Here.
00:12:23Thank you.
00:12:25My name is...
00:12:26Stashek.
00:12:28We will call you Stashek.
00:12:30That is my brother's name, Yoshko.
00:12:34From now on, you are Stashek.
00:12:37It's best we know nothing.
00:12:41You can sleep in the cow shed.
00:12:47You must change these clothes.
00:13:10Follow me.
00:13:41You can help out on the farm,
00:13:44graze the animals,
00:13:47muck out the cow shed.
00:13:52You have a lot to learn.
00:13:54Have you ever grazed a horse?
00:14:04Stashek!
00:14:06Stashek!
00:14:16My auntie told me to hide.
00:14:18And you will hide
00:14:20in plain sight.
00:14:23Listen to me carefully
00:14:27because you're...
00:14:29Our lives depend on it.
00:14:32You are my sister's brother.
00:14:35You are my boy.
00:14:37Understand?
00:14:39This past spring,
00:14:41your father drove his wagon over a Russian landmine,
00:14:44was killed along with his oxen,
00:14:47leaving your mother and you destitute,
00:14:49so she sent you to live with us.
00:14:53She volunteered for labor
00:14:57in the great German Reich.
00:15:00But she died of typhus before she got on the train.
00:15:03So you are an orphan.
00:15:05And Kasia and I are the only family that you have. Got it?
00:15:09Keep this story clear in your mind.
00:15:13Yes, sir.
00:15:14Yashko is fine.
00:15:17Yashko.
00:15:33Yashko.
00:16:03Yashko.
00:16:05Yashko.
00:16:34Mom.
00:16:36Can I sit with you?
00:16:38No, my little man.
00:16:44Why not?
00:16:47Die darfst leben.
00:17:03Life is a lie.
00:17:07Life is a lie.
00:17:10Life is a lie.
00:17:13Mom.
00:17:31I've never been in this table before.
00:17:37Eat.
00:17:39Thank you.
00:17:43Mom.
00:18:13It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
00:18:16That's how I used to work with my little sister.
00:18:19My mom, I took Sonya, not me.
00:18:22She didn't let me go with her.
00:18:29Little piggy.
00:18:30Hey.
00:18:31Come on, little piggy.
00:18:37We will fatten him and eat him for Christmas.
00:18:43Come on.
00:18:48Let's go.
00:18:57One more.
00:19:07He watches me.
00:19:13We live quiet lives here.
00:19:16No one wants any trouble.
00:19:21Am I trouble?
00:19:23You're a boy.
00:19:25You're supposed to be trouble.
00:19:31Your aunt, she pays us to shelter you.
00:19:38We need those payments, Tashak.
00:19:43Come on.
00:19:53Have you ever sneered at Robert?
00:19:55No.
00:20:02Watch how I tie this.
00:20:08Thread this end through.
00:20:14Like a noose.
00:20:18Now I need a branch like this.
00:20:22Tie it around a few turns.
00:20:25Tie it tight.
00:20:28Then we need some sticks.
00:20:31We need to block the trail and force the rabbit into the snare.
00:20:38Does it catch it by its hind legs?
00:20:41No, my friend.
00:20:43By the neck.
00:20:47What a horrible way to die.
00:21:11Come on.
00:21:42Good.
00:21:45Hi.
00:21:46Hello.
00:21:47Here.
00:21:55Don't eat that.
00:21:57It's not for eating.
00:22:02Can I see that?
00:22:03It's okay.
00:22:12Any news from my auntie?
00:22:24There will be no more money for keeping the boy.
00:22:29Her hiding place was discovered.
00:22:32Everyone taken.
00:22:38Everyone?
00:22:41Yes.
00:23:11Come on.
00:23:28Yashko.
00:23:30What is that?
00:23:31Hunters in the woods.
00:23:33The price for a Jew just went up.
00:23:36Go back inside.
00:23:41Okay.
00:23:59Do you want to hear a story, little man?
00:24:03A rooster and a hen.
00:24:05Let the story begin.
00:24:12A cat and a mouse.
00:24:17My time has run out.
00:24:34Yashko Rudnitsky.
00:24:37Yes.
00:24:38We have been told you are hiding Jews.
00:24:41Jews.
00:24:43Are you sure I do not need to tell you how this works, Mr...
00:24:49Rudnitsky.
00:24:51Yes.
00:24:58If you do not tell us where they are,
00:25:01when we find them,
00:25:03we will kill the Jews and hang your entire family.
00:25:07Family.
00:25:10You have a family in there, yes?
00:25:15You know I do.
00:25:17You did?
00:25:18Funny.
00:25:20What will it be, Mr. Yashko Rudnitsky?
00:25:35No, man.
00:25:38I am not hiding any Jews.
00:25:46Then...
00:25:48you would not mind inviting us in?
00:25:55Thank you.
00:25:58Thank you.
00:26:04Petrik.
00:26:08The loft.
00:26:09Yes, Captain.
00:26:17There is no one here.
00:26:21Stable.
00:26:22Yes, Captain.
00:26:24No, stay.
00:26:31What a day.
00:26:35Truly...
00:26:37exhausting.
00:26:40And...
00:26:41exhilarating.
00:26:48Hello.
00:26:53What a...
00:26:55sweet little thing.
00:26:59Boy?
00:27:01It's a boy.
00:27:03Bless you.
00:27:04You will grow up to be a big, strong, hard-working, honest man.
00:27:12Hippo.
00:27:13Just like your papa.
00:27:21Two boys.
00:27:24So far apart in age.
00:27:28Such a young man.
00:27:35You will grow up to be a big, strong, hard-working, honest man.
00:27:42This one cannot be yours.
00:27:51I'm her nephew.
00:27:54My mother sent me here when she went to be a laborer in the great German Reich.
00:28:01Is that so?
00:28:02Please, please, take chair.
00:28:03Sit, sit, sit, sit.
00:28:05Sit with me.
00:28:12Would you...
00:28:14enlight, please?
00:28:15Please.
00:28:40A worker in the Reich, you were saying?
00:28:43A volunteer's herself, sir.
00:28:48Does she write?
00:28:50You must have...
00:28:52letters from her?
00:29:02She doesn't know how.
00:29:06I haven't heard from her since she left.
00:29:08I'm worried I won't see her again.
00:29:28Nonsense.
00:29:39Your mother is working in a German factory.
00:29:44Doing her part for the war effort.
00:29:49Making...
00:29:51you.
00:29:55Making all of us...
00:29:59proud...
00:30:02of our country.
00:30:04Making all of us...
00:30:08proud, son.
00:30:16You think of that?
00:30:18Your mama.
00:30:21So proud.
00:30:25Captain!
00:30:26I found something in the stable!
00:30:29Captain Bagan!
00:30:34Come with me.
00:31:00What have you found, Petri?
00:31:03Kidding.
00:31:08Why were those vegetables in the cowshed?
00:31:12I'm sorry.
00:31:15You don't need to have packaged vegetables.
00:31:18We put them in the sheds.
00:31:20No!
00:31:24No!
00:31:27Get on your knees!
00:31:29Get on your knees.
00:31:33No!
00:32:04I told them that you feed it to the pigs.
00:32:08Good.
00:32:11That is good.
00:32:18You cannot stay here anymore.
00:32:33Come on.
00:33:03Come on.
00:33:33I'm sorry.
00:33:38I'm sorry.
00:33:40I'm sorry.
00:33:45I'm sorry.
00:34:03I'm sorry.
00:34:09Here.
00:34:15Grab some branches.
00:34:18Cover the hole.
00:34:24You should be drying here.
00:34:34Further down this slope, there's a river for water.
00:34:41Lots of berries in this part of the woods.
00:34:46Don't eat the mushrooms off the ground.
00:34:48Only those that grow on trees.
00:34:50But not the yellow ones.
00:34:52And when all the mushrooms and berries are gone?
00:34:55The snare that I taught you to catch a rabbit.
00:34:59And this twine in the sack.
00:35:03Flint, for a fire.
00:35:06And a knife.
00:35:10Ration your food.
00:35:15What about the Jew hunters?
00:35:19Never make a fire too close to the shelter.
00:35:22Always cover your tracks.
00:35:29How much?
00:35:33What?
00:35:35How much is a Jew worth?
00:35:48What am I worth?
00:35:55Sometimes.
00:35:58The bullets, pain, sugar.
00:36:04Or vodka.
00:36:17It's too risky for my family, Stashek.
00:36:19That is not my name.
00:36:21You heard the chief.
00:36:23They will kill us.
00:36:24Kasia, Gronik.
00:36:27All of us.
00:36:33Let's go.
00:37:33Let's go.

00:45:40No.

00:46:30My mame went to find food.
00:46:33She never came back.
00:46:35They took your tate?
00:46:37No.
00:46:39He told me to wait while he went looking.
00:46:41I stayed in the secret spot for as long as I could.
00:46:44But...
00:46:46I got hungry.
00:46:51What's your name?
00:46:55Janik.
00:46:57Janik.
00:46:58I have a secret spot too.
00:47:01You can come stay with me.
00:47:03I haven't seen my mame in ages.
00:47:07You have to learn how to survive without them for a while.
00:47:11It's okay.
00:47:12I can teach you.
00:47:14I'm fast, I'm smart, I'm strong and I'm brave.
00:47:17I'll protect you.

00:47:58Wait.
00:47:59No, the leaves are falling. I'm thirteen.
00:48:03Soon you'll become a bar mitzvah.
00:48:05Actually, I'm thinking of becoming Christian.
00:48:08Because the Christian God protects his people.
00:48:12We wouldn't have to hide anymore.
00:48:16How do you become Christian?
00:48:19Gee, if I knew that we wouldn't be here.
00:48:29What?

00:50:44What do you want now?
00:50:46I thought myself a Jew.
00:50:59Are you alone?
00:51:03Family?
00:51:07How old are you?
00:51:11I promised my mom I would be brave.
00:51:16Lord.
00:51:18You awful man.
00:51:20Can't you see he's just a child?
00:51:22They want us to be rid of them.
00:51:24They say they're parasites.
00:51:26Feeding off the honest work of peasants.
00:51:27Well,
00:51:29and they needn't concern themselves with this one.
00:51:31Doesn't look like he's been feeding off much at all.
00:51:34Now release him
00:51:36before I tie you to the horse
00:51:38and drag your boorish ass straight back to your wife.
00:51:53What a mess.
00:51:57Come, child.
00:51:58Inside.
00:52:00Let's see who does this.
00:52:15Thought you'd come here and show off your spoils?
00:52:19I have to take him in.
00:52:21Chief's orders.
00:52:28Well, then.
00:52:30A toast
00:52:32to the bravest of child catchers.
00:52:34Drink.
00:52:49Rahina.
00:52:51Drink to it.
00:52:58Damn you, Rahina!
00:53:00Damn you!
00:53:02Run, boy!
00:53:04Let go of me!
00:53:06Let go of me!
00:53:27Yannick.
00:53:29Yannick, where are you?
00:53:32Yannick.
00:53:34Yannick.
00:53:35I thought you were gone.
00:53:37I was looking for something to eat.
00:53:39Mom, I won't leave you.
00:53:41That's what they said.
00:53:43Yannick, I'm back now.
00:53:49You've been...
00:53:52And then,
00:53:54and then,
00:53:56and then,
00:53:58Yannick, I'm sorry.
00:54:00I'm sorry I won't leave you.
00:54:03Don't do that again.
00:54:05I'm sorry, Yannick.
00:54:25Yannick.
00:54:40Marcus!
00:54:41Marcus, breathe in!
00:54:44Yannick, I'm serious.
00:54:46Not that much.
00:54:47Not that much.
00:54:48Yannick.
00:54:49Yannick.
00:54:51Go, go.
00:54:56No, no!
00:54:58Max!
00:55:17Maybe there are fish we can catch.
00:55:19Maybe.
00:55:21Just maybe.
00:55:23We could ponder up a good idea.
00:55:25We could catch a golem from the mud.
00:55:28What's a golem?
00:55:30What's it trapped in for?
00:55:32You don't know?
00:55:34It's a magical,
00:55:36powerful,
00:55:38fierce...
00:55:40Tell me.
00:55:43More than a hundred years ago,
00:55:45a great rabbi wanted to protect his people.
00:55:48So he made the creature out of earth,
00:55:50and sand, and water, and clay.
00:55:52The rabbi
00:55:54wrote the secret,
00:55:56all-powerful, true name of God
00:55:58on a piece of paper
00:56:00and slipped it into the creature's ear.
00:56:05The sacred spell
00:56:07turned the clay into a living being.
00:56:10A golem.
00:56:16The golem did wonderful things for the Jews.
00:56:19Saved them from hunger,
00:56:21even cracked the heads of ugly peasants who beat them.
00:56:30Soon,
00:56:32the enemies of the Jews
00:56:34saw what a mighty protector they had
00:56:36and ceased to plot against them.
00:56:39And
00:56:41the Jews had no more use for the golem.
00:56:44So,
00:56:46the rabbi
00:56:48removed the piece of paper from the golem's ear.
00:56:51And the spell was undone.
00:56:59Just like that.
00:57:01Gone.
00:57:03Back into earth and sand.
00:57:05Gone?
00:57:07Just like that?
00:57:22Gone.
00:57:27Till we need to conjure up another.
00:57:29Then it will rise again.
00:57:31Like,
00:57:33now?
00:57:35Yes.
00:57:37Yes, Janik, the time has come.
00:57:39We will strike down the Nazis,
00:57:41snuff them out.
00:57:43There's no match for our golem.
00:57:45Winter will be here soon.
00:57:47We should dig a bunker before the ground freezes.
00:58:00Dead souls.
00:58:03What?
00:58:05Dead souls.
00:58:07Dead souls.
00:58:09Dead souls.
00:58:11Dead souls.
00:58:13What?
00:58:16Going up to heaven.
00:58:19It's what makes them sing.
00:58:33You heard that?
00:58:43We'll use this as a door.
00:58:46Keep the cold out.
00:58:51Last winter,
00:58:53in our ghetto,
00:58:55there was a boy
00:58:57sitting on the streets
00:58:59with eyes that didn't blink,
00:59:01purple lips.
00:59:04So many days,
00:59:06and he never, ever moved.
00:59:09Then,
00:59:10one sunny morning,
00:59:12he was gone.
00:59:14Just a pool of water.
00:59:16Like he melted.
00:59:18What if that happens to us?
00:59:20Janik, don't talk like that.
00:59:22We'll make it out of this winter.
00:59:24Look at us.
00:59:26We're building our own bunker.
00:59:31Janik, go pick that up.
00:59:37We'll wait over there.
00:59:41This?
00:59:47Come on.
00:59:52Try harder. Do it.
00:59:57Go.
00:59:59Too heavy, Max.
01:00:01Come on. You can do it.
01:00:03You have to be stronger, Janik.
01:00:07I can't.
01:00:08I can't.
01:00:10Janik.
01:00:39Come on.
01:01:02Nothing left.
01:01:04I don't know.
01:01:06So hungry, it stings.
01:01:25And we're older.
01:01:27And out of these woods,
01:01:29we can move to the city
01:01:31and hang out
01:01:33all day.
01:01:35You can help me sell my paintings
01:01:37and we'll wear fancy clothes
01:01:39and feast whenever we want.
01:01:41Right?
01:01:42Like ten times a day?
01:01:44Twenty, if we like.
01:01:49Run!
01:01:50Run, Janik!
01:01:53Come on, faster!
01:01:57Jan!
01:01:58Come on!
01:02:03No!
01:02:06Come on, come on!
01:02:14Faster, Janik!
01:02:16Jan!
01:02:20Max!
01:02:27Janik!
01:02:29Janik!
01:02:30Janik!
01:02:32Get us a bunker!
01:02:41Wait!
01:03:01Do you see him?
01:03:03This way.
01:03:07A rooster and a hen
01:03:09led the story to the king.
01:03:11A cat and a mouse
01:03:13and a tiger
01:03:15ran out of their covers.
01:03:19Little rat,
01:03:21where are you?
01:03:31Must have scurried away.
01:03:33Let's go.
01:04:00A cat and a mouse.
01:04:02My time has run out.
01:04:31Max.
01:04:36Max.
01:04:40Max.
01:04:42Magic circle.
01:04:44Max.
01:04:46My brilliant boy.
01:04:50What will we do without you?
01:04:52What will we do without you?
01:04:54Max.
01:05:00Max.
01:05:26Janik.
01:05:28Janik.
01:05:31Max.
01:05:33Max.
01:05:35Janik.
01:05:37Janik.
01:05:39Janik, I'm sorry.
01:05:41I'm sorry, this is my fault.
01:05:44Janik, mommy was wrong.
01:05:46I'm not strong
01:05:48and I'm not brave and fast.
01:05:50What?
01:05:51Yes, you are.
01:05:52We're not going to make it out.
01:05:53How?
01:05:54How do we survive?
01:05:56The golem.
01:05:57No, the golem.
01:05:58It will protect us.
01:05:59The golem is just a stupid story.
01:06:02That's not true.
01:06:03It's fake.
01:06:04It's not real.
01:06:05The only thing that's real in this world
01:06:07is hunger and pain and ghosts
01:06:10and jewel hunters.
01:06:17They're trying to kill us.
01:06:22Janik.
01:06:24It's okay.
01:06:25They want to kill us.
01:06:29It's okay.
01:06:59It's okay.
01:07:25Janik.
01:07:26Max.
01:07:29You're...
01:07:31Are you awake?
01:07:33Mm-hmm.
01:07:37I'm forgetting their faces.
01:07:51I found this ages ago.
01:07:53Kept it for you
01:07:54in case you ever lost the other paintbrush.
01:08:01Smart.
01:08:04An artist can never have too many brushes.
01:08:07Well,
01:08:08now you have one anyway.
01:08:13You won't forget me,
01:08:15will you?
01:08:20What do you mean?
01:08:24If we don't get to be always together,
01:08:27move to the city,
01:08:29and wear fancy clothes,
01:08:32when you are a really old man
01:08:35with wrinkles and white hair
01:08:38and a walking stick,
01:08:40will you still remember me?
01:08:49Promise?
01:08:55Promise.
01:09:00You know,
01:09:01I used to think God had abandoned me,
01:09:05but now
01:09:08I think
01:09:11maybe he sent me you.
01:09:24Max?
01:09:38Max!
01:09:41What happened?
01:09:42Sonya!
01:09:45Janik!
01:09:47Max!
01:09:48Shh.
01:09:49I'm holding bro!
01:09:54Come on, let's go take a peek.
01:10:18Yannick, come on. Let's go take a peek.
01:10:21Maybe it was the Russians. Maybe we've been liberated.
01:10:24Yannick, come on. Come on, let's go.
01:10:48Ah.
01:11:18Take off their clothes and shoes.
01:11:34What, Max? What?
01:11:36Yannick, they can't feel the cold, okay? Okay? They can't. I promise.
01:11:42Come here.
01:12:12Come here.
01:12:42There.
01:12:49Yannick. What?
01:12:51Someone's alive over there. I see something moving.
01:12:56Yannick, come on. Come on.
01:13:00What are you doing?
01:13:02Yannick, I need your help.
01:13:04No, we can't. The water's too cold.
01:13:06We can. We have to. Somebody's alive over there.
01:13:14I don't... I don't know.
01:13:16Please, Yannick.
01:13:17I... I...
01:13:20I'm sorry.
01:13:25Yannick, get up. Come on. Yannick, come on.
01:13:28It's freezing.
01:13:31It's freezing.
01:13:40Come on to the ship. Stay with me.
01:13:45Yannick, come on.
01:13:50Ah.
01:13:56Yannick.
01:14:07Almost there.
01:14:25She's dead.
01:14:35Yannick, a baby.
01:14:44Please, I'm freezing.
01:14:50Please, we have to go back to the bungalow.
01:14:55Mommy.
01:14:57What do I do?
01:15:16Yannick, I need you to guide me across.
01:15:21Strong and brave.
01:15:28Ah.
01:15:31Baby, help.
01:15:35Yes, yes, that's it.
01:15:42Yannick, come on. Take off your ice clothes.
01:15:47Come on, take them off.
01:15:54Yannick, come on.
01:15:57Yannick, come on.
01:16:00Yannick, come on.
01:16:03Yannick, come on.
01:16:08Come on.
01:16:14Yannick.
01:16:15Yannick, come on. You'll freeze.
01:16:17Listen to me.
01:16:20Someone will hear it.
01:16:22At least take your stuff. Please.
01:16:25Okay, come on. Let's go.
01:16:30Be quiet.
01:16:34Shh.
01:16:37Shh.
01:16:43Max, what did you do?
01:16:52Shh, shh, shh.
01:17:10It's so cold.
01:17:19I don't know what's going to come out of them.
01:17:44Max.
01:17:52I can't let you get sick.
01:17:54I have to find you some food.
01:18:17Hello?
01:18:29Are you sure?
01:18:31What are you doing here?
01:18:33Who are you running to?
01:18:35My hiding space.
01:18:37Ah.
01:18:39All right.
01:18:42No one will miss him.
01:18:47These are the bits.
01:18:51Bits?
01:18:55Your knife.
01:18:57Give it to me. I need it.
01:19:00You are Russian soldiers?
01:19:02Not quite.
01:19:10Wow.
01:19:19You can't be here, boy.
01:19:22This place, it's about to become the front line.
01:19:27And go back the way you came.
01:19:34Move, boy!
01:19:37Get out of here!
01:19:44Okay.
01:19:56Okay.
01:19:58Okay.
01:20:10Okay.
01:20:24We have to get rid of this baby.
01:20:28Come on, Jessica. He'll know what to do.
01:20:36Max, no.
01:20:42Max.
01:20:44Max.
01:20:46Max.
01:20:48Max.
01:20:50Max.
01:20:52Max.
01:20:54Max.
01:20:56Max.
01:20:58Max.
01:21:00Max.
01:21:02Max.
01:21:04Max.
01:21:06Max.
01:21:22It's all shaking.
01:21:27Oh, Shaq.
01:21:28I want the baby.
01:21:31I can't.
01:21:32Everyone else was dead.
01:21:33I need to go now to take care of it.
01:21:34Please.
01:21:35Good God, boy.
01:21:41Me and Nathalie can't take care of it.
01:21:44It costs too much.
01:21:45You're right. You can.
01:21:47Who is Yannick?
01:21:50He's my best friend.
01:21:51I... I...
01:21:52He found me.
01:21:53Maybe he's an angel.
01:21:56Please, can you and Cassia please take the baby?
01:21:58Uh...
01:22:01We will find somewhere for her.
01:22:04Thank you.
01:22:05Thank you. I have to get back to Yannick.
01:22:06I think he's sick.
01:22:10Stashek.
01:22:12The Russians are close.
01:22:14There's talk of a German retreat.
01:22:17Bring your friend to the cowshed.
01:22:19After dark.
01:22:20Thank you.
01:22:21Thank you, Yasko.
01:22:25Oh, shit.
01:22:44Come.
01:22:45Come, Yannick.
01:22:46I'm taking you somewhere safer.
01:22:50It's so hot.
01:22:52No, no, no.
01:22:53You have to keep your clothes on.
01:22:54You have to stay warm.
01:23:00Why am I under the earth?
01:23:02It's a secret spot.
01:23:04Yannick, Yasko, the war is almost over.
01:23:07The golem has risen and it's crashing the Nazis.
01:23:12You'll see your mama and your sister again.
01:23:20No, no, Yannick.
01:23:24You are my only family now.
01:23:32Yannick?
01:23:34Yannick, you're awake.
01:23:37God, please cover him with your feathers.
01:23:46Sleep.
01:23:48Get your strength back.
01:23:54Tomorrow we'll go to Yaskos.
01:24:03Yannick?
01:24:07Yannick?
01:24:11Yannick?
01:24:12Victor, we have to go to Yaskos.
01:24:18Yannick?
01:24:19Why are you so cold?
01:24:25Yannick, what's wrong?
01:24:29Wake up.
01:24:33Yannick, come on.
01:24:36Come on.
01:24:38Time to get up now.
01:24:42Yannick?
01:24:45Yannick?
01:24:48Yannick?
01:24:51Yannick?
01:24:54Yannick?
01:24:57Yannick?
01:25:01Yannick?

01:25:10Yannick?
01:25:12Yannick, please wake up.
01:25:16Please.
01:25:21Please don't leave me alone.
01:25:25Yannick.
01:25:27No one's gonna stop me.
01:25:29You can do it.
01:25:35Stashek!
01:25:37Yasko.
01:25:40Stashek!
01:25:45Yasko.
01:25:49Stashek.
01:25:56Yannick, wake up.
01:26:01Wait out here.
01:26:26I'm here.
01:26:46What have you seen?
01:26:49No.
01:26:51Oh, my ass, go.
01:26:53Oh.
01:26:54Oh.
01:26:55Oh.

01:28:34Oh.
01:28:34Oh.
01:28:35Oh.
01:28:45He didn't want to go to the music room.
01:28:49And I pulled him in.
01:28:59It's because of me.
01:29:02I couldn't even keep him alive.
01:29:08I was supposed to protect him.
01:29:19But I couldn't.
01:29:49I couldn't.
01:30:10He is a hero, you know?
01:30:14Stashek saved a baby girl.
01:30:17Strong and brave.
01:30:23Kaja?
01:30:25The Soviets have taken the town.
01:30:28The Germans are gone.
01:30:34They're gone?
01:30:37Gone.
01:30:38Stashek.
01:30:40No more hiding.
01:30:44My name is Markus.
01:30:46Max.
01:30:50I can see Max!
01:30:51Max!
01:30:55Please take me home.
01:31:04Hey.
01:31:13Ready?
01:31:16Yeah.
01:31:47Max.

01:33:14Hello.
01:33:15Hello.
01:33:16May I introduce to you Maxwell Smarr.
01:33:20I'm Orf.
01:33:21This is the descendants.
01:33:22Yes.
01:33:23I was always wondering what happened to your mother.
01:33:26All my life.
01:33:29She's a survivor.
01:33:43She can't speak in Yiddish. I don't understand.
01:33:46Do you understand Yiddish?
01:33:48She knows Yiddish.
01:33:50But she can't speak.
01:33:52She can't find the words.
01:33:54Do you remember the river?
01:33:57How freezing the water was.
01:33:59How the two children, the two boys came and saved you.
01:34:03How they came, went into the water
01:34:06and took you out from the arms of your mother.
01:34:11You owe him your life.
01:34:22It's okay.
01:34:24She says it's okay.
01:34:26I feel better and I don't feel as guilty.
01:34:40It's true.
01:34:42Yannick died.
01:34:44He's a hero.
01:34:46He saved you and you have children.
01:34:49They will have children and children and children.
01:34:52It's a continuation of life forever.
01:35:22The sounds of children in the woods
01:35:27The broken branches of a tree
01:35:31The feel of pounding in your blood
01:35:35The smell of earth beneath your feet
01:35:40Don't forget to wear your gloves
01:35:44Don't forget to wear your shoes
01:35:48It started hailing from above
01:35:52The sky is purple as a bruise
01:35:56And so it gets under your nails
01:36:01And so it gets into your nose
01:36:05And so it gets into your eyes
01:36:09You'll never get it out, you'll go
01:36:18guitar solo
01:36:30We'll have to even up the piles
01:36:34They'll see the earth is freshly churned
01:36:38They're bound to be here in a while
01:36:42They'll find whatever isn't burned
01:36:47Oh, these children in the woods
01:36:52What does it matter here today
01:36:56It isn't bad, it isn't good
01:37:00They'd only grow up anyway
