This poignant period drama charts three generations of a Jewish family amidst the shifting tides of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. As their fortunes evolve from humble beginnings to positions of wealth and power, they navigate the complexities of identity and loyalty against the backdrop of government-sanctioned anti-Semitic persecutions. The patriarch, a respected judge, faces a heartrending dilemma when his government's actions conflict with his personal principles. His son, embracing Christianity to advance his career as an accomplished fencer, finds himself ensnared in the horrors of the Holocaust. Ultimately, the grandson, shaped by war, revolution, and personal tragedy, learns that his ultimate allegiance must lie with his own identity and heritage, bravely forging a path in an uncertain world.
