Stationed in a remote, quiet Bulgarian village in 1943, sensitive artist and Wehrmacht officer Walter is pleased to be away from the horrors of the battlefield. With his brigade channelling entire populations of captured Greek Jews to the hellish concentration camp, Auschwitz, Walter sees his world turn upside-down when young Grecian prisoner Ruth summons up the courage and turns to him for help with a pregnant woman. Against the backdrop of a dangerously volatile situation, little by little, conflicting emotions take over the unlikely couple, as Walter falls for Ruth. Can there be a future for the doomed lovers?
