I don't get it, was that a sneeze? Sounded like a gunshot.

[@brandontilghman9610]

I thought it was a gunshot at first too but I’m pretty sure it was a cough he was holding in. The sound we hear must be him making impact with the floor

why germans speak russian?

[@buoy9665]

same as when Germans speak in English in western film

[@anatolfrombelarus7940]

Pure Russian is spoken in the film by "policemen" - collaborators who sided with the Nazis.
