Brussels, summer 1942. Young Simon watches with horror his father arrested and deported by the Nazis. He managed to flee to England where he joined his grandfather Abraham, an austere and distant character. In this exile, Simon finds no comfort with Abraham. This learned old man, attached to the values of the Jewish tradition, despises Simon's secular education. Everything opposes them in their conception of religion and life. When they discover the horror of the Holocaust and the probable disappearance of their loved ones, it is Simon's youth that will give the old man the strength to face an unbearable reality.
