A Jewish doctor lives a carefree life in Trieste, Italy, until he intervenes to help the victim of a car accident and ends up getting enmeshed with the surviving members of a neo-Nazi family. This gripping morality tale poses profound questions about racial hatred, xenophobia, and the paradoxes of the human soul. With a masterful use of the camera to provoke and reveal, Italian director Mauro Mancini blurs the line between saving and losing lives while underlining his potent message that the choices we make forever define us.
