Synopsis



Graz, Austria 1963. The well-respected local politician and large-scale farmer Franz Murer is on trial for war crimes. The evidence is overwhelming:
As the so-called “Butcher of Vilnius”, the former Austrian SS officer set up, organized and ruled the Vilna Ghetto from 1941 to 1943 and gained sad notoriety for being a sadist who showed special cruelty towards the Jewish population. Different survivors of the Shoah testify, hoping to effect justice, but in the centers of power, the desire to bring eventual closure to this dark chapter of the country’s history seems to outweigh the desire for justice.
Based on the original documents of one of the greatest judicial scandals of the post-war era.
