The story

The film begins shortly after the end of the Second World War with a man arriving in Monte Carlo.

Later, she discovers tattooed numerals on his arm, revealing him as a survivor of the Nazi concentration camps.

Caught by the police, he is imprisoned, first in a labour camp, then in Mauthausen concentration camp near Linz.
