Germany, Interwar period (1919-1939). The Polish Zishe Breitbart (Jouko Ahola), the son of a Jewish blacksmith, causes a sensation in Weimar Republic Berlin (1919-1933) by acting like a strongman from mythological times. Hanussen (Tim Roth), the businessman who hires him, dreams of creating an all-powerful "Ministry of the Occult" within the Nazi government (1933-1945). As Hitler's grip on power grows tighter by the day and anti-Semitic furore erupts in Berlin, Zishe, suffering from terrible nightmares, seeks advice from a local rabbi and comes to the conclusion that he has been chosen by God to warn his people of the grave danger that looms over them.
