The movie tells the story of the Austrian writer Stefan Zweig, one of the most famous writers of his time, and his life in exile from 1936 to 1942. As a Jewish intellectual he struggled to find the right stance towards the events in Nazi Germany. Driven to immigrate to South America at the peak of his worldwide fame, he fell into despair at the sight of Europe’s downfall.
