On a rainy night in a WWII concentration camp, a condemned
Jewish doctor is recruited to perform emergency surgery
on a Nazi general’s dying son. With nothing left to lose, the
doctor refuses to aid his hated enemy, but when offered
his freedom in exchange, he is faced with an unthinkable
moral dilemma. Based on a true story, The Desperate offers
a provocative reflection on the relationship between justice
and mercy, and ultimately celebrates the triumph of human
dignity. This deeply moving drama challenges us to consider
our commitment to human dignity and our understanding of
God’s grace.
