In Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia a Jewish doctor Dr. Braun, forbidden to practice, has to remove a bullet from a wounded Resistance fighter. He roams the nightmarish Prague streets in a desperate search for morphine while hiding his patient from the Nazis. In a world where people are encouraged to report on anything out of the ordinary, it is only a matter of time before his covert activities are brought to the attention of the authorities.
