When the two-metre-tall handsome Jew Simon looks upon his wife Basia and their six children, just as red-haired as him, his eyes sparkle with happiness. Listening to Solomon’s Song of Songs, his oldest son asks: “Father, how do you pay for love, if not with money?”And his father replies: ”With your life, son.”
This film is about love, pure... and tragic, because it takes place in the summer of 1941, when butcher Simon’s family arrives in the small village of Poltava, Ukraine, fleeing from German-occupied Poland...
