Plot synopsis
The protagonist of the film is the village idiot Maris, who during the German occupation in the Baltic countries, together with other villagers, enlists in the auxiliary troops of the Wehrmacht. In the archives he will remain an anonymous murderer, but his story will be told to us through the eyes of a young Jewish woman condemned to death.
The film tackles the theme of collaborationism and the role played by the “civilian” population in the mass extermination of the Jews. We expect a visionary film on the dark scenes of war where the horror of the bloody choice looks like a bad dream.
