Synopsis
Based on a true story, Eric Stoltz stars in this poignant drama about a barber working for the American Army and German Prisoner of War camp at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin during W.W.II. Embittered that he cannot fight, he must take a stand when a Nazi SS Officer threatens his wife (Kate Connor, playing her real-life grandmother). Her Catholic sister (Lyndsy Fonseca) falls for a Jewish soldier (Andy Hirsch) haunted by the Battle of Monte Cassino and the death of his best friend (Matthew Lawrence). Camryn Manheim is their audacious friend who encourages them, while Seymour Cassel is the priest who cannot. The barber’s daughter befriends a German prisoner boy during this magical summer, but war still finds its victims even thousands of miles from the battlefields.
