Summary
The true story of Salomon Sorowitsch, a swindler famous as Berlin's King of the Counterfeiters who is arrested and placed in a Nazi concentration camp. With the German army on the verge of bankruptcy, Sorowitsch makes a deal with his captors: in exchange for comfort and good food, he and his hand-picked assistants must counterfeit bank notes to fund the Nazi War effort. If he survives, will he be able to live with himself?
