Plot


The film is based on Wiesenthal's book of the same name that was published in 1967.

As Austrian Jews living in Ukraine at the beginning of World War II, Simon Wiesenthal and his family are captured by Nazis and sent to live in a series of prison camps, where Wiesenthal cheats death several times. When he is liberated from Mauthausen in 1945, Wiesenthal provides vital information to the Americans in the Nuremberg War Trials and dedicates his life to hunting down Nazi war criminals, even though doing so comes at a cost to his family.
