SYNOPSIS:

1938 and the world is on the brink of another world war: Milena (a young Austrian Jew) assumes the identity of her murdered boyfriend, Acelin (a young German private) who tried to protect her family during the brutal exodus and deportation of Austrian Jews. Armed with Acelin’s standard-issue Luger - which has the power to choose who lives and who dies - Milena vows to do whatever she can to rescue her father taken during the exodus and bring retribution to those responsible for Acelin’s murder. George Landon: a weathered Lieutenant of the 43rd Wessex Division who, despite running from his past, is using his present to offer a hope for a brighter future for those he is fighting for; and Colonel Thayer: a self-effacing German Officer with greater desires than just winning the war... ... and their possession of that Luger.
