Es war einmal in Deutschland

Frankfurt, 1946: David Bermann survives with wit and business acumen. He goes door to door selling bed linen to Germans who were Nazis just a short time before. He dreams of emigrating to the United States. Black humour as self-protection, chutzpah as a survival strategy. But a US officer wants to know how Bermann survived the Shoah – collaborator or survivor? Garbarski tells a Jewish crook's tale of trauma, loss and new beginnings.
