Partly filmed in Estonia, with costumes by Eugen Tamberg and production design by Jaagup Roomet, this thrilling historical drama tells the lesser-known story of Abraham Stiller's struggle to protect Jews from deportation to the Nazis. Stiller, a Finnish Jewish businessman, did everything in his power to help the Jewish refugees seeking shelter in Finland. While Finland remains unoccupied during the Second World War, some officials and cabinet ministers want to appease the Nazis by dealing with the so-called 'Jewish question'. Many Jewish refugees who have come to Finland in search of a better future find themselves facing the same problems as before. The kind but outspoken Abraham speaks out to protect the asylum seekers, but suddenly finds himself torn between his personal life and his politics, his emotions and his reason. Estonian editor Tambet Tasuja dynamically cuts a gripping narrative, alternating between the perspective of guilt-ridden Abraham in 1972 and flashbacks to key events in 1938 and 1941-42.
