Summary:While cleaning out his grandmother's apartment after her death, the filmmaker Arnon Goldfinger discovers documents that reveal the incredible story of a friendship between Goldfinger's German grandfather Kurt Tuchler, a Jewish Zionist judge, and Baron Leopold von Mildenstein, the commander of the SS Jewish Department during the 1930s. He wonders why a Nazi official would bother to visit Palestine, and why Jews would want to consort with an anti-Semite.
