Cecilia is the only person who visits Silvio, her best friend's grandfather, a man who jealously guards the mystery of a legendary life which he has never wanted to share with anyone. Through a box of photographs, Silvio introduces Cecilia to his fascinating story with Zachary West, an extravagant North American whose arrival in Ribanova changed the fate of those who met him. With West he will discover all the horror of the rise of Nazism in Germany and will learn the value of sacrificing one's own life for ideals. Cecilia, immersed in a deep personal crisis after the losing her mother and breaking up with her partner, will find in Silvio a friend and ally to help reconstruct her life.
