18 years beyond the fall of the Third Reich finds us in a Frankfurt courtroom where several Nazi soldiers and officers stand trial for atrocities at Auschwitz. They face a variety of former prison camp survivors whose testimony is translated from Polish by young German-born Eva Bruhns. Their descriptions of the hellscape that was the Auschwitz experience has profound effects on Eva, arousing profound introspection and eventually leading her to find out her parents worked at Auschwitz. She discovers a world around her where older Germans eschew her for her participation in the trial, a very typical reality after the war as many refused to acknowledge war crimes choosing rather to forget. For Eva, she becomes one of the new post war generation that begins to seek comfort and forgiveness for the profound horror experienced by the persecuted.
