Focusing on a late 19th-century villa in Wernigerode, the narrative explores over 120 years of German history through the lives of its Jewish owners, Benno and Clara Russo. Their story unfolds against the backdrop of industrial success and the tragic consequences of Nazi power, leading to their deportation and murder. The villa later served various purposes, including a vocational school, reflecting the complexities of post-unification ownership disputes. Ultimately, it transforms into a vibrant cultural space while honoring the memory of the Holocaust, as recounted by Dr. Julia Nelki.
