Following the suicide of an elderly Jewish man, investigative journalist Peter Miller sets out to hunt down an SS Captain and former concentration camp commander. In doing so he discovers that, despite allegations of war crimes, the former commander has become a man of importance in industry in post-war Germany, protected from prosecution by a powerful organisation of former SS members called Odessa.

Based on true event of world war 2 and the Jewish programme of eradication of the Nazi's
Not the best acting I've seen and the sound reproduction is quite poor, though the latter can be overlooked.
