BASED ON A TRUE STORY
Peril awaits siblings Hans and Esther Bernsteen as the threat of a fascist Europe looms over 1939 Amsterdam. Separated by the choices they make, each lives a life of secrets and lies in the search for a path to survival. In a fit of temper, Esther destroys her U.S. Immigration Visa and consigns herself to years in Bergen Belsen where she seduces her SS captor from lust into love. Her brother Hans seeks his fortune in the U.S. and discovers his gift for investigation. Hans becomes a lone wolf, dropped by the U.S. Army into Axis territory with a camera, no ID, and no weapon. Their twisted trails intersect as espionage and treachery follow brother and sister to a new home.
