In a small, hostile Polish town, a 13-year-old Jewish boy carries a dangerous secret: his tender, defiant heart and the quiet, forbidden truths of who he is. Playful, gentle, and unlike the other boys, he must navigate a world that would punish him for being himself. But when a bold, unpredictable new boy enters his life, the fragile walls he’s built begin to crumble—forcing him to face the perilous reality of who he truly is, and who he might dare to become.
