Plots(1)
During WWII, a ragtag band of refugees from Germany crosses into Switzerland seeking shelter. The owner of a small inn takes them in with the provision that they pose as a family in order to escape suspicion and deportation, as refugee families with children under six were allowed to maintain asylum in Switzerland during the war. The group includes a child who speaks only French, while its adults are all German-speakers. Can the boy be made to understand the gravity of maintaining his silence as he holds their fate in his small hands? (official distributor synopsis)
