Hans Westmar

One of many

One German destiny from the year 1929

Heil the republic!

When you look at that, you should mean...

That’s the difference. By you in the Reich is the situation serious but not hopeless.

Right...

By us in Vienna is the situation hopeless but not serious.

Vienna is a grate city!

Hans, on what are you thinking?

Berlin.

I must now drib back home.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Don’t forget us brother.

I forget you? Sure not!

You must al come for Sure to Berlin!

Sure, we two, I and my daughter will certainly come.

Then you can show Maud, that means me too, Berlin.

Namely I haven’t been to Berlin for 20 years.

I’m for the first time back here from America.

So beautiful.

That’s the best time in Vienna.

Will it be in Berlin also be as beautiful?

Who knows, maybe?

So funny and blite...

...and so free.

By us in Berlin...

Smash this slum!

Must people in Russia also stay in al line like that?

Welfare

Home for homeless, room VII, beds 310–450

It’s all rubbish!

Then I will go to Russia, someone said that there everyone has there own flat.

Listen, in has everyone he’s own villa.

People dwell here...

...like animals.

Awful!

Awful?

Penury is our best ally!

All this...

... drives the commune forward.

Thousents sang “The Internationale”...

...did stand many hours on the streets.

Hamburg belongs to the proletariat!

That’s right!

No god can take us that!

Not one!

Than you.

I resume:

Thüringen, Braunsweig, Sachsen,...

...Hessen and middle-Germany Is red!

The Ruhr is red.

Red are Bremen, Hamburg, Kiel, Lübeck...

...all big cities in the north.

Also Frankfurt, Manheim – best bases for the soviets.

3/4 of Germany is in our hands and the German Michael haven’t ُ even noticed it.

In Munich it’s still not good...

...there is Hitler.

Hitler, national-socialists...

whippersnappers and fools.

Munich doesn’t matter any more...

...only Berlin does.

What bears Berlin: Pankow, Central and East are in our hands.

The social democrats do us groundwork and then...

...and then dump them.

Fellows!

Now the final battle as arrived, Every day must bring something new.

Hunger strikes, riots in welfare institutions, robberies, constant unrest.

The police shall not notice our part in all this.

And don’t forget fellows: Soviets in Russia, soviets in Germany and the world is ours.

Poland will be smashed between us.

Then no country in Europe could withstand the red flood.

Dortmund called, the till is empty.

It will be filled, money isn’t important.

Moscow knows its duty!

My son!

How was it in Vienna?

In Vienna?

Ok.

Are here some news, mother?

Ah, nothing special.

Yes, still.

An envoy was here and asked for you.

Helmut Mehne?

Anything else?

Thus two young lads asked after you...

...thus from the SA.

Say, do you want to take part there, in the SA?

Yes, of curse.

For this idea you must live and work.

But you are a student. Think on your study.

So are the Germans outside the Reichs borders allover Europe.

The treaty of Versailles, which brought as the wanted freedom.

Draw the political borders of germanism even narrower.

But ladies and gentleman think on the immense win of freedom.

We became with narrower borders borderless, we became Europeans...

...citizens of the world.

We are now equal and taken into the circle of the big cultural nations.

The big word has been fulfilled...

...never again war,

The weapons down!

The weapons up!

Stop.

Why?

Pleas a pause.

Police!

You are the innkeeper?

Mr constable, You know that...

...everyone knows me in Berlin.

We where informed that here are duels taking place.

I hear that for the first time, duels?

I don’t know about that.

Have you rented the room?

What else, that’s its purpose.

So, to browse!

We have heard here are duels taking place.

Duels?

What are you all doing here?

Celebrating!

Cheers!

I warn you...

...duels are in the German republic forbidden!

Why?

Because it’s forbidden!

That’s a reason.

Let’s sing, you play the piano.

"Der Gott, der Eisen wachsen lieك"

Der Gott, der Eisen wachsen lieك,

Der wollte keine Knechte,

Drum gab er Sنbel, Schwert und Spiess

Dem Mann in seine Rechte,

Drum gab er ihm den kühnen Mut,

Den Zorn der freien Rede,

Daك er bestنnde bis aufs Blut,

Bis in den Tod die Fehde.

Do you see? Singing communists.

The International.

There is the fight...

...not by us with epees.

The real fight is there, there marches the enemy.

I tell you Leitpusch, down there is Germanys future in the game...

...on the street.

Nazis... peg out!

That fore we have to get into the folk.

We may not stand beside.

Everithing is in play!

We must fight together with the workers.

But the worker will not hear from us.

We are for them a totally different class.

Students.

From now there shall not be any classes anymore.

We are also workers, workers of the “head”.

And our place is beside our brothers, the workers of the fist.

But that’s fantasy, Hans.

Will they accomplish it?

In Moscow the workers live good:

Food, work, movies – what can you want more?

Don’t lie through your teeth!

I was in Russia, only the party bosses get all that, everyone else has to peg out!

Are you satisfied?

Ah, not enough.

More, more must be them.

Nazis...peg out!

Did you see that banner? – “Nazis are invited”.

They give us 30 minutes to talk.

Who would speak tomorrow?

Of curse Westmar.

Did you gather all your things? I will wash them.

They hang there.

Like you say Ms General.

Night and day I have to work for you.

Easy, easy Klara.

You are our Comrade.

The SA service isn’t easy.

Who is there?

Westmar

Who?

Westmar!

Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!

Hello Klara!

Hello Hans!

Like always doing work.

Jِrg Meyer.

15. Sturm.

Westmar

You must speak tomorrow on the commune gathering.

If they let us speak.

They have promised us to speak.

And Goebbels does not want, that we let one chance unused.

Berlin’s destiny is decided here.

Berlin’s?

More is in!

I wanted to invite you to our gathering today.

I’m sorry, I can’t today.

I must be a tour guide tonight.

I must show homefolks from Vienna Berlin.

This Berlin on is really international.

You van find here anything, but nothing German.
