Ladies and gents, I have discovered the name of the American soldier who inspired this short film. The American soldier's name is Jack Leroy Tueller. He took his trumpet with him to Europe during the war and was one of the Americans to land in Normandy, France, on 6 Jun 1944. One night, he was feeling stressed and decided to play his trumpet to relieve his stress. His commander warned him against it as there was a German sniper nearby, but Jack insisted on playing his trumpet as he thought that the German soldier was scared just like he was. So Jack played 'Lili Marleen' on his trumpet and surprisingly, nothing happened to him. The next morning, a jeep with German soldiers arrived to surrender. One of the soldiers asked, in broken English, who was playing 'Lili Marleen' the night before. Jack said that he was the one who played 'Lili Marleen' and the German soldier, who was only 19, broke into tears and said that when he heard the song, he immediately thought about his girlfriend and his family, and was unable to bring himself to shoot the Americans. He reached out his hand towards Jack and both men shaked their hands. Jack said that he felt no hatred towards the German soldier at all, he was right, after all, about believing that even an enemy soldier would feel about the war the same way as he did: Longing to survive the war and return home to be reunited with family and friends. Music has the power to unite enemies together and bring out the best in people during the worst of times.

@@silasmerzenich I just happened to read about this incident in the comments section of a recording of the song on KZread. I decided to Google the US soldier's name to learn more, and then I realised that this short film was inspired by this real life incident.

My best friend's grandfather fought in the Battle of the Bulge. He was in a shell crater crawling up its wall, and apparently a German soldier was doing the same in an adjoining crater. They met eye to eye at the crest, much to their surprise. The German asked, "Are you scared?" The grandfather nodded. The German replied, "me too." They both turned around and crawled in opposite directions.

57,000 ROK soldiers died in Vietnam alongside US troops. Thank you for sharing your moving story. My father who was in Korean War and Vietnam, told me that in combat he could see the mark of death on soldiers face just before he died. Years later I saw a Twilight Zone rerun episode written by Rod Serling in which a young infantry lieutenant can see the mark of death on soldiers face before they died and just as he was being sent back to the Stateside, he sees that mark of death on his own face.

I am an American. My father fought in the US Navy in the Philipines in WW2. I served during the Cold War from 1971 to 1997 in the US Air Force. My son served in the US Army and completed two tours in Iraq. My youngest daughter serves our Veterans in the VA. I was moved by this authentic depiction of young men at war.

@@user-bo8ps5fg9s я заметил , кстати , что в их фильмах про стычки с советскими солдатами нам показывают исключительно немецкие личности с их мыслями , воспоминаниями о семье , переживаниями и тд. А советские солдаты ......это просто враги , обезличенная масса , которая , к тому же туповато , бестолково воюет и попадает по немцам лишь случайно или во время обстрелов. А американские солдаты всегда представлены более благородно и человечно , что и семьи у них и дети и все такое. Разговоры друг с другом. Мол ....все люди и американцы и немцы. Да и воюют американцы в этих фильмах на порядок слаженнее и профессиональнее. К чему я это ? Предвзятые фильмы с явным продуманным перекосом в сторону германской армии и нации в целом. Типа , все они там подневольно и умирать не хотят. Но воюют профессионально и умело , даже в невыгодных условиях. Про сжигание деревень вместе с жителями , мы тут никогда не увидим. Этого как-бы и не было вовсе. 100 % начало обеления и оправдания нацизма .

It's a great song that meant a lot to fighting men on all sides in Europe. Remember the scene from the Fassbinder movie of the same name? When Lili (played by the fabulous Hanna Schygulla) steps up to the stage in Berlin to sing, all the fighting stopped. Everywhere. For the next few minutes, all soldiers paused to think of their wives and girlfriends far far away. Lili finishes her song, and the killing instantly resumes.

@@wingedlyon Living in Austria, my great grandfathers were called into the Wehrmacht back then. It indeed was a terrible time, where a part of the population hated an other part of the same population, and those who didn't were shunned and treated as traitor with dire consequences. Of course this doesn't and will never excuse the atrocities that were commited (willingly or not). One of my great grandfathers denied joining the Wehrmacht and was hanged for treason. The other great grandfather was lost in Stalingrad, and one fell during a battle at the Italian front. The Wehrmacht was made of all sorts of people, mostly though of ordinary people, conscripts and professional soldiers. Whatever they might have believed in that the war was justified turned into tiredness. Tiredness of killing, tiredness of loss, tiredness of fear, tiredness of waiting, tiredness of surviving, tiredness of pain, exhaustion, starvation, illness and sadness. They all wanted it to end, they all wanted to go home. And often, when they tried to stop it, they were branded as traitors by commanding officers or zealous comrades that reported them, ending up executed. Most of them weren't Nazis. Same with the civilians, whereas the population believed in the justification and propaganda for this war, they grew tired as well, tired of the losses, the sadness, the fear, tiredness of a regime that forced people to spy on each other, to report any behavior that was agains the regime's policy. It is a sad, dark and terrible chapter of humankind and especially central europe, but it is sad as well that everywhere on this world it is taught and shown, how bad, evil and inhuman the Wehrmacht was, while the were as well, only human, suffering like the Allied Forces, maybe even more so, knowing that what they fought for was wrong, and showing any remorse or resistance could mean death. They were basically trapped between dying by illness, accidents or enemy forces, and being executed for insubordination. Games like Medal of Honor and Call of Duty, Company of Heroes and so on, they are great games, but they only show the heroism and suffering of the Allied Forces, glorifying them while showing off the Wehrmacht as heartless robots. Same for many movies back then.

German uniforms were very impractical when fighting the Soviets. Their boots had hobnails in the soles which conducted the bitter cold which froze many Germans in sub-zero conditions. It was the same with their steel helmets which froze their brains. From head to toe, the poor conscripts shivered. They would gladly have swapped their lighter uniforms which could not keep them warm for the Soviet vatnik (ватник), a Russian cotton wool-padded jacket which trapped body heat. Instead of the German jackboots which allowed frostbite, the Soviets wore valenki (ва́ленки) which were winter felt boots and to prevent heat loss through the head the Soviets would prefer their ushanka (уша́нка) which is a Russian fur cap with ear-flaps. Take your pick.

Heart rendering. In wars it is still the individual who has to bear the horror, the loss and deep pain of seeing and being part of so much death and the deep loss. Beautiful film! Many thanks to all who made this possible.

Великолепная работа как всегда! Спасибо за русские субтитры!!

Richtig klasse. Sowohl vom Schauspiel als auch von der Technik. Bin schwer beeindruckt. Am Ende hatte der deutsche Soldat zwar noch das Scharfschützengewehr seines Kameraden, aber er war anscheinend müde vom Krieg.

Really well done! And that camerawork is pure skill! Keep making these!!!

This made me almost shed a tear, I admire you guys are the Dusty Faces series. Though war can be spread by hate, love for something can bring two humans together who fight for something different.

Ihr bringt diese Amosphäre und Story besser rüber, als jeder andere Film es könnte. Echt echt Klasse!!!

War, fought by the common man. Your films remove the glitter from the Generals promises of glory in combat. We who watch your work understand you are showing the future generations if you cannot live in peace this is your destiny, madness and sadness. danke schon komrades

Really great to see people who truly cover real emotions.

Acting isn't so great, and the American ranks and ages/seniority are wrong, but this is SPECTACULAR. A short film has no business having production quality as good as this. 10/10

Ich bin wirklich sprachlos! Das war wieder mal Qualität, die ihresgleichen sucht. Anders bin Ich es von euch auch nicht gewöhnt. :) Besonders gefallen hat mir die Szene auf dem offenen Feld, als es zum Gefecht kam. Und als sich der deutsche Soldat ergeben hat, und man als Zuschauer um dessen Leben gebangt hat. Das war wirklich sehr bewegend! :)

Vielen Dank! Freut uns wirklich, dass es dir gefallen hat!

Dank, danke und nochmal großen Dank für eure sehr guten Filme Eure Filme halten uns, den Zuschauer in Spannung von Anfang bis zum Ende. Man wird direkt in die Scene mit eingebunden und meint, man stehe mitten drin in der Zeit. Danke an die hervorragende Leistung der Schauapieler und danke an das PLW-Team Wie ihr mit geringem Budget doch so authentisch wirkende Filme macht. Eure Filme zeigen auf besondere Art die Sinnlosigkeit von Krieg Eure Filme regen zum Nachdenken an. Zum Nachdenken über die Vergangenheit aber auch über die Zukunf. Und sehr gut finde ich, ihr wertet nicht und macht keine moralische Erziehung Bei euren Filmen gibt es nicht die Bösen … … Ihr zeigt beide Seiten der kämpfenden Soldaten ohne den Zeigefinger der Belehrung zu erheben Dank, vielen Dank, dass wir eure Filme sehen dürfen. Und bitte macht weiter … … ihr schafft es noch bis zum Blockbuster ins Kino Ihr werdet mit jedem Film immer besser.

Vielen lieben Dank für deine Worte!

super job. my grandfather fought in WW1, my dad in WW2,i fought in vietnam. neither of us talked much about our experiences.

So berührend und traurig Ein Meisterwerk von einem Video Es ist wundervoll wie ihr mit den Gefühlen und den Emotionen eurer Zuschauer spielen könnt vielen vielen Dank für eure Mühe ❤❤❤

Ich muss einfach mal wieder sagen ihr seid Hammer, ich verfolge euch schon, seit ihr ca. 5-10 Tsd. Abonnenten habt und muss einfach feststellen, dass ihr von Anfang an schon super gute Filme gemacht habt und ihr einfach immer besser werdet. Es ist nicht selbstverständlich, dass ihr diese Filme die besser als jeder Hollywoodfilm sind kostenlos für jeden zur Verfügung stellt. Dafür wollte ich einfach mal Danke sagen, und kann euch nur von ganzem Herzen wünschen, dass eure Filme noch mehr Aufmerksamkeit und Reichweite bekommen. Irgendwann schafft ihr es in die Filmwelt und spielt ganz oben mit da bin ich mir sicher. Ihr schafft es in einem Film von 20 Minuten mehr Emotionen aufzubauen als viele Oscarpreisträger und verlangt dafür nichts, ihr schaltet nicht mal Werbung !!! Vielen vielen Dank dafür, ich freue mich schon auf eure nächsten Meisterwerke

Wow dann bist du ja quasi seit Stunde eins dabei! Vielen Dank, dass du immer noch unsere Filme schaust. Das motiviert ungemein!

Die Tragik und die Grausamkeit des Krieges, ja das Verbrechen an einer ganzen Generation, wieder einmal habt Ihr es auf den Punkt gebracht. Gratulation zu einem weiteren Mèisterwerk!

Well that was 20 minutes well spent. Wow -fantastic all round. Thank you.

Bin erst heute auf eure Kurzfilme gestoßen. Ganz großes Kino.

Wie immer eine Glanzleistung! Eine berührende Geschichte, sagenhafte Schauspieler und wunderbare Kameraeinstellung. Alles in allem, ein Kurzfilm einer Truppe, bei der man sich nicht vorstellen kann, was für ein Meisterwerk sie noch herzaubern könnten! Diese 21:31 Minuten haben es verdient, gesehen zu werden. Irgendwann hoffe ich es, dass ihr es schafft, einen Kinohit zu produzieren, bzw. ich hoffe es nicht nur, sondern ich glaube es auch! Und ja, ich weiß, ich wiederhole das, was schon in den anderen Kommentaren steht, nämlich das Daniel, Marco, Tristan und alle anderen Darsteller sowie das gesamte Team im Hintergrund etwas erschaffen haben, wo sich viele andere noch mehrere Scheiben abschneiden können! Kurz gesagt, Hut ab vor dieser Produktion, sie ist um Weiten besser als ich sie mir vorgestellt habe. Macht weiter so!

,,Краткость-- сестра таланта,, Работа актеров показала зрителю все чувства и переживания людей за своих родных и любимых. Война--это страх умереть и больше не увидеть родных и любимых, и детей. Но главное сохранить человеческие чувства и остаться человеком, даже на войне.Замечательная работа.

Eure Filme sind echte Meisterwerke und euer Kanal extremst underrated, die Schauspieler sind für die Verhältnisse echt gut. Schön zu sehen das es auf KZread doch noch Qualität gibt.

That was very well made for a KZread short film, Amazing work, props to the makers and actors!

I applaud y'alls efforts and truly enjoy the levels y'all go to to achieve historical accuracy in your vids 👍👍 Make Love, not War

Greetings from the US. You guys have always done outstanding work... I do remember watching an interview with an American veteran, who told a similar account... He was stationed near an airfield near the front, and had German sniper in the area. He mentioned playing the song Lili Marleen during his night watch, and the following day the German sniper actually surrendered to them...

Great job on this short movie. Having both sides thinking of family back home. Really hits home for the men that fought WW2.

Muchas gracias por los momentos ParaLight WorX ...un abrazo enorme desde sudamérica.

absolut fantastisch! super schauspiel und es gibt mir eine atmosphäre der gänsehaut auf dem ganzen körper! vielen dank für eure tolle leistung! großes lob an jeden der dort mitgemacht hat!

All of your films are incredibly well made and almost every time you get me crying. The story and camerawork makes you connect with both sides and makes you want to see them become friends. You can almost feel the pain when someone dies no matter which side they're on.

Wow was ein überragendes Meisterwerk😧 Hollywood kann einpacken Jungs, ihr seit die besten👍🏻

Ich habe in den letzten 5 Jahren einiges an Verlust erlebt. Sanft dosiert helfen mir zbs diese Darstellungen dabei diese Erfahrungen ganz vorsichtig zu erleben. Plötzliche Veränderungen oder Verluste zbs. Geliebte Menschen oder auch Dinge. Ich will hier niemanden zu nahe treten. Gute Arbeit Danke

A soulful war short story. Kudos to all in front and behind the camera.

Absolute Meisterleistung… no words! Bin überzeugt, dass es so ähnlich stattgefunden haben könnte! Wir brauche auch solche Filme um unsere Kinder den Schrecken des Krieges zu lehren! Danke

SUPER Film, absolut authentisch. Dieser wahnsins Aufwand.....Hut ab!!!

This was much better than what I thought it would be. Great production. My grandfather was in the pacific, a marine corsair tech. He had malaria a couple times and got a drunk driving back in the day. War is hell.

Beautiful, just beautiful! You do better in 20 minutes than most filmmakers can do in 2 hours!

Brutaler Film.... einfach Wahnsinn was ihr kostenlos zur Verfügung stellt

Authentisch und gefühlvoll....ihr werdet immer besser.

Hits you right in the feels bravo gentleman this is one of the greatest works of cinema I have seen in a while!!

I am French but my Grandfather was in the Austrian Luftwaffe, and my other grand Dad was Czech and fight just a bit against the Germans when they came to Prague ! So this short movie reminds me that this could have been my 2 grand fathers meeting each other in the war field! Fortunately they met when I was young in the 70s and things went well thankfully 😅 ! War is a sad achievement

Yet another fantastic short film! Such a masterclass production! You're spoiling us with the quality of your productions! Bravo!

That clip took me back to my beloved “ Lainie “ aus Nurnberg many years ago.

The way the scope shooting scene was made is litterally the best I've seen in any movie, better than the highest budget war movies.

Liebe dieses Video! Wie Sie den Tod von Mannings und Pauls Freunden verursacht haben, macht das Video sehr emotional. Ich mag die Art und Weise, wie du beide Seiten dazu gebracht hast, am Ende aufzuhören zu kämpfen.

It's amazing to see how much your team have progressed in the quality of your movies. It was already good but it keeps getting better and better. Well done! Hope to see a long feature film from your hands soon.

Damn, this made me cry. Thank you for making such a beautiful film. Well done.

Super Film voalem das Ende ich hatte gensehaut besser als eine hollywood produktion es zeigt mir das keiner den krieg wollte zuminndestens von den Soldatn danke macht weiter so
