In 1963, Eva Bruhns is a young woman who works as a Polish-German interpreter in Frankfurt. She lives with her parents, who runs the restaurant Deutsches Haus. Eva is about to get engaged with a wealthy heir to a postal order company when she at the last minute receives a request to interpret in court: the city prepares her first Auschwitz trial against former SS officers. Eva's parents and her future husband strongly dislike it. Eva has never heard of Auschwitz, but something makes her ignore their fears and accept the job. It is only when Eva begins to interpret that she understands the extent of the National Socialist Murder Machine and eventually realizes that she has a personal connection to the site.
