A touching story of an Italian book seller of Jewish ancestry who lives in his own little fairy tale. His creative and happy life would come to an abrupt halt when his entire family is deported to a concentration camp during World War II. While locked up he tries to convince his son that the whole thing is just a game.

But someone is missing: Martin, who died in a tragic accident years ago. This year, Nomi, Martin's former girlfriend, brings along her new boyfriend, Finn, for the first time. With little sense of which questions are appropriate and a penchant for bringing up sensitive topics, Finn shakes up the close-knit group…
