The film describes episodes from Stefan Zweig’s last years in North and South America, in places that could not replace his native Austria, despite great reception and recognition. The Jewish-Austrian writer and pacifist who foresaw Europe’s decline left his country in 1934, at the dawn of WWII.
As Stefan Zweig travelled in exile between Buenos Aires, New York and Brazil during the years preceding WWII, his conscience was consumed with the thoughts of the horrors occurring in his home, Europe. This biopic compellingly traces the philosophical reflections of the tormented author.
