A darkly complex psychological drama about a Holocaust survivor's obsessive investigation of his neighbor, blending paranoia, grief, and the moral weight of historical trauma with an unlikely human connection.

South America, 1960. A lonely and grumpy Holocaust survivor convinces himself that his new neighbor is none other than Adolf Hitler. Not being taken seriously, he starts an independent investigation to prove his claim, but when the evidence still appears to be inconclusive, Polsky is forced to engage in a relationship with the enemy in order to obtain irrefutable proof.
