English Summary:

Diplomacy (German and French: Diplomatie) is a 2014 Franco-German historical drama film directed by Volker Schlöndorff and adapted from the play Diplomatie by Cyril Gely. The film premiered at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival on 12 February 2014. It was also screened at the Telluride Film Festival in August 2014. It won the César Award for Best Adaptation at the 40th César Awards.

As the Allied Forces move toward Paris, Adolf Hitler commands General Dietrich von Choltitz to destroy the city. Choltitz sends a team to demolish the city's famous landmarks and to overflow the Seine, led by Lieutenant Hegger and advised by a captured Parisian engineer named M. Lanvin. The landmarks being targeted include the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Place de la Concorde and Notre Dame de Paris.

A Swedish diplomat named Raoul Nordling sneaks into the general's office in the Hotel Meurice by means of a secret passageway. He points out the loss of innocent lives if the demolition goes through, and asks the general not to do it. The general is not swayed.

Parisians start to revolt against the German patrols. Fighting fills the streets. Choltitz reveals that the Nazi government has a standing order to punish the officers' families. Nordling tries to downplay its significance, but Choltitz points out that it was enacted right as he was promoted, meaning that Hitler has his eyes on Choltitz.

 

French Summary:

Diplomatie est un film de fiction historique franco-allemand coécrit et réalisé par Volker Schlöndorff, sorti en 2014.

Dans la nuit du 24 au 25 août 1944, le général Dietrich von Choltitz s'apprête à faire sauter la ville de Paris sur ordre d'Adolf Hitler. Raoul Nordling, un consul suédois, rencontre le général à l'hôtel Meurice pour tenter de le dissuader d'exécuter cet ordre.

 

Hungarian Summary:

1944 augusztusában járunk, amikor a második világháború végkimenetele már eldőlni látszik: Hitler csapatai meggyengültek, a szövetségesek pedig fokozatosan törnek előre. A többgenerációs katonai család sarja, Dietrich von Choltitz tábornok a Führertől azt a feladatot kapja, hogy a legfontosabb épületeiben és hídjainál aláaknázott Párizst robbantsa fel. Ha Choltitz engedelmeskedik a parancsnak, nemcsak az európai kultúra egy kiemelkedően fontos darabját törli el a föld színéről, de több millió ártatlan embert is elpusztít. Viszont ha megkíméli a várost, akkor a Gestapo mészárolja le az egész hátrahagyott családját.
