A concentration camp survivor (Adorf), recently released from prison after serving a sentence for murder, discovers that one of his tormentors is serving as a priest in his community. Together with two fellow survivors (Tausig and Ganz), he confronts this figure from his haunted past. Swiss filmmaker Urs Egger presents a very human drama which confronts the complicated moral issues in his characters' lives.
