yes.
yes.
three months.
my father was one of the officers in the plot against hitler. they arrested the plotters and their families.
yes. she suffered longer. she was in ravensbruck.
major.
there have been messages for you. a lieutenant david wills called from the allied kommandatura cultural affairs office in wiesbaden. i don't know who he is.
then there have been three calls from dr. furtwngler wanting to know when you wish to see him. i did not speak to him personally.
oh yes, major, i have recordings of all his symphonies. i kept them safe during the bombing. my favourite is the seventh symphony.
but.  he only wrote nine, major.
no. ours was damaged.
the names of the members of the berlin philharmonic orchestra since 1934 together with their questionnaires. major, what am i to tell dr. furtwngler?
i'm sorry.
it works! hallelujah!
herr rudolf werner.
my father.
straube.
my father.
that's because you had a proper upbringing.
oh! and don't wave your hands about!
and no elbows on the table!
and talking is talking! well, i think we better get on.
straube.
my father.
major, major.  he's here .
dr. furtwngler.
straube.
major arnold's office. yes, he is.
it's major richards for lieutenant wills.
dr. furtwngler.
maybe you can have a look at this.
what does he mean, too correct?
don't see me to my door, there's no need.
well, sleep well.
excuse me, major. i found this on helmuth rode. you remember? the second violinist? look, he's austrian not german. but it's this that's more important, i think.
when he made his decision, he couldn't have known everything. especially not the way people like you do, who've returned from exile and feel that you have a right to pass judgement. because you are blameless, you think you know best who is a sinner and who deserves forgiveness. but you have no idea how people lived here.
i don't know. but you and i already know that he has saved lives.
bruckner's seventh, major.
of course.
i'm sorry but i have to leave. i'll find other work. you'll have to get someone else, that's all.
i can't do this. it's not right.
i have been questioned by the gestapo just like that. just like you questioned him.
but he had no idea, a lot of people had no idea. i only realised what was really going on when i got arrested.
i would like to go now, please.
'please remember that dr. furtwngler risked his life to help anyone who asked him. i personally testify to having seen literally hundreds of people lined up outside his dressing room after concerts to ask for his help. he never turned anyone away. after he heard me play.  i am a violinist.  he gave me money because i was unable to feed myself or my family and then he helped me to escape to sweden. he helped countless people in similar ways.'
my father only joined the plot when he realised that we could not win the war. she cries quietly.
