A morally complex wartime drama about a Swedish bureaucrat's quiet heroism amid political corruption and neutrality compromises, grounded in historical investigation and ideological struggle.
Swedish Foreign Ministry bureaucrat Gösta Engzell, overlooked during WWII, rescued thousands while turning supposedly neutral Sweden into a moral force. His efforts challenged the status quo and left a lasting humanitarian legacy.
