Somewhere deep in Transylvania, the city fathers of a small town boast of peace, prosperity, and brotherhood. It’s August 1944, and all that is about to change. Gabrea (A MAN LIKE EVA, GRUBER’S JOURNEY) focuses his story on Felix and his friends, members of an ethnic German minority, on the eve of their high school graduation party. With Romania siding with Germany in the war, then changing sides to back the Allies, plans for the all-important celebration are thrown into disarray by divided political loyalties. Meanwhile, Felix faces peril in his growing love for his only Jewish classmate.
