Occupied Paris, 1941: All members of the Jewish community are instructed to identify themselves to authorities. Jeweler Joseph Haffmann (Daniel Auteuil), fearing the worst, arranges for his family to flee the city and offers his employee François Mercier (Gilles Lellouche) the chance to take over his store until the conflict subsides. But his own attempts to escape are thwarted, and Haffmann is forced to seek his assistant’s protection. As the assistant and his wife move into the Haffmann home, the agreement turns into a Faustian bargain, one that will forever change the fate
of all.
