Потом — зачищать следы их присутствия и ждать новых. Среди тысяч людей, проходящих через газовую камеру, один выживает на считанные минуты. Саул узнает в нем своего сына и решает во что бы то ни стало похоронить тело по всем правилам. Теперь это его единственная цель в расплавленном, так непохожем на жизнь пекле лагеря смерти.

В лагере зреет восстание, Саул становится слишком уязвимым, но он думает только о сыне… которого, возможно, у него никогда не было.

The tumultuous history of Hungary through the twentieth century is viewed through the saga of the Hungarian-Jewish, furniture-manufacturing family, the Vendels.

A matchmaker presents him with a photo of a pretty German nursery school teacher. When the two meet, they instantly fall in love, but because Hungary has an alliance with Germany, and the Third Reich prohibits marriage between Gentiles and Jews, the couple must hide their union.
