A gripping tale of survival, courage, love and resilience as we follow three lives struggling to escape death in the last year of WWII while the Third Reich is pummeled into ruins.
Against the backdrop of post-war Germany Joseph and his daughter Gabrielle emerge from peace-time starvation, his 3 years as a POW, and his recovery from death defying wounds. Amid the darkness, Joseph finds love with Erika who must overcome rape and a bestial Nazi brother's past before she can defeat self-loathing and shed the stain of Nazism in order to thrive. The indomitable will of Joseph, Immigration, the courage of Erika and the elfin innocence of Gabrielle highlight a tale that transcends their lives and encompasses the challenges we all face to overcome the dark side of humanity with love and compassion in order to find our true selves.
