Overview

At nine, Miroslav flees the Eastern Front alone after his mother’s disappearance. In postwar Germany, the Czech boy drifts between zones, lands in reform schools and prisons, and suffers a crippling accident. Rejected by society and facing deportation, he joins Berlin’s underworld, is arrested for murder, and confronts whether society or he is to blame.
