An obscure but important chapter in the history of World War II arrives on the screen as screenwriter Aleksander Scibor-Rylski teams with director Zbigniew Kuzminski to tell the tale of renowned Polish spy and war hero Jerzy Szajnowicz-Iwanow. The Third Reich has descended upon Greece, and as the dark clouds of war gather ominously overhead, one man possesses the power to make a change for the better in the German-occupied country.
