not because of strength
or faith,

:02:07
but because they are tired.
:02:10
This is not an accusation
:02:13
or even a defense
of the German people.

:02:15
It is an objective
assessment.

:02:18
Yet if anyone,
:02:21
after watching
Edmund Koeler's story,

:02:24
feels that something needs
to be done--

:02:27
that German children need
to relearn to love life--

:02:31
then the efforts of those
who made this movie

:02:36
will be greatly rewarded.
:03:03
The Germans that work
with the Americans...

:03:05
they also get 50 grams
of margarine.

:03:08
What's the use?
We'll die no matter what.

:03:10
When are they going
to give us a break?

:03:12
If you're tired,
throw yourself in that grave.

:03:14
What's this?
Slacking off this morning?

:03:16
You've been working three hours
and you're already tired!

:03:18
Don't you understand, the grave
has to be 2.5 meters by 75?

:03:22
- It looks all right to me.
- Leave, if you don't want to work!

:03:25
I've been working for hours!
That boy is doing nothing!

:03:27
- What's that little boy doing here?
- How old are you?

:03:29
- I'm already 1 5.
- It's not true.

:03:31
- He's no more than 1 3.
- Look at me. Are you lying?

:03:33
I know you. You went to school
with my son. You're only 1 2.

:03:36
- Is that true?
- Leave me alone. So what if I work?

:03:39
- Show me your work papers.
- I forgot them at home.

:03:41
- Not true. They're all liars.
- They steal the bread from us.

:03:44
Then they sell their cards
in the black market.

:03:46
Back to work!
Let's go!
