Berlin, Germany, 1935. The day Karl Weiss, a young Jewish painter, and Inga Helms, a beautiful Christian woman, marry, is the one in which both of them and the entire Weiss family are caught up in the terrifying maelstrom of the Nazi regime, the tragic storms of World War II and the unspeakable horrors of the criminal Final Solution, the Holocaust, the Shoah; while Erik Dorf, an ambitious but wimpy lawyer undertakes his fall into hell at the hands of the sinister Reinhard Heydrich.
