Der 10. Mai

On May 10, 1940, at 03:00 a.m., the Western Front begins to move. The German Wehrmacht invades Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg to roll up the Maginot Line. On his round of checks, the Swiss railroad guard Tschumi meets the dripping wet German refugee Werner Kramer who has swum across the Rhine. Kramer hopes that the "Heftis", old and wealthy friends of Zurich, will help him. But the news of the German invasion has a shock effect on the Swiss, changing their situation and mood. A truck driver takes Kramer with him for a while and even gives him lunch, but then suddenly leaves him sitting there. In Zurich, the refugee learns that the Heftis have set off for Central Switzerland. At the station, chance brings him together with the tailor Anna Marti, whom he has known since childhood. Anna gives him shelter in the studio and takes him home in the evening. But that doesn't suit her partner, the widowed brother-in-law Albert Widmer, at all. He even thinks about denouncing Kramer. But Kramer realizes for himself that he won't make any progress. He turns himself into the police. After a long night at the police station, he is left with the anxious question of what his prospects are for an asylum application.

The Passion of the Christ

2 hr 7 mins
A depiction of the last twelve hours in the life of Jesus of Nazareth, on the day of his crucifixion in Jerusalem. The story opens in the Garden of Olives where Jesus has gone to pray after the Last Supper. Betrayed by Judas Iscariot, the controversial Jesus - who has performed 'miracles' and has publicly announced that he is 'the Son of God' - is arrested and taken back within the city walls of Jerusalem. There, the leaders of the Pharisees confront him with accusations of blasphemy; subsequently, his trial results with the leaders condemning him to his death. Jesus is brought before Pontius Pilate, the prefect of the Roman province of Judaea, for his sentencing. Pilate listens to the accusations leveled at Jesus by the Pharisees. Realizing that his own decision will cause him to become embroiled in a political conflict, Pilate defers to King Herod in deciding the matter of how to persecute Jesus. However, Herod returns Jesus to Pilate who, in turn, gives the crowd a choice between which prisoner they would rather to see set free - Jesus, or Barabbas. The crowd chooses to have Barabbas set free. Thus, Jesus is handed over to the Roman soldiers and is brutally flagellated. Bloody and unrecognizable, he is brought back before Pilate who, once again, presents him to the thirsty crowd - assuming they will see that Jesus has been punished enough. The crowd, however, is not satisfied. Thus, Pilate washes his hands of the entire dilemma, ordering his men to do as the crowd wishes. Whipped and weakened, Jesus is presented with the cross and is ordered to carry it through the streets of Jerusalem, all the way up to Golgotha. There, more corporal cruelty takes place as Jesus is nailed to the cross-suffering, he hangs there, left to die. Initially, in his dazed suffering, Jesus is alarmed that he has been abandoned by God his father. He then beseeches God. At the moment of his death, nature itself over-turns.
