The White Factory

In the Łódź ghetto in Nazi-occupied Poland, Yosef Kaufman, a Jewish lawyer, acts for the ghetto's elder, Chaim Rumkowski, who is trying to save lives by making the ghetto indispensable to the German war effort, a bargain that draws the community into ever deeper compromise. Years later, in Brooklyn in the sixties, Yosef is trying to build a new life with his family, but the past refuses to let him go.
