Synopsis

A young journalist finds himself in the middle of a network of silence, guilt and shame as he researches the story of the Austrian Nazi doctor Heinrich Gross and his victim Friedrich Zawrel. The film questions Austria`s willingness to uncover the truth. It paints a portrait of an unusually courageous old man whose accusations from his jail cell make his tormentor and the Austrian judiciary very nervous.
