In 1938 thirty-two countries meet to discuss the Jews fleeing Germany and Austria, with many fine words and no one willing to take them in, and in the same year Italy passes its racial laws. In Genoa a Jewish family faces the question of whether to stay in the land of its roots or flee, and where to. There is a son who is a frustrated prodigy, a bitter, disappointed mother, a wise but irresolute father, an eccentric grandfather, overbearing uncles and cousins who disappear and reappear. Their doubts, passions, weaknesses and betrayals intertwine with the tragedy of history, in a true story completely reimagined.
