In August 1942, the Vichy government organizes a large-scale roundup of foreign Jews. Gilbert Lesage, a young civil servant who leads the regime’s Service social des étrangers (SSE), is tasked with determining the fate of the arrested Jews, and attempts to save the Jewish children at the internment camp in Vénissieux from deportation with the aid of Catholic priest Alexandre Glasberg.
