After being arrested by Berlin Police in Nazi Germany, Salomon Sorowitsch (Karl Markovics), a man with a talent for forging documents and counterfeiting money, is sent to a hard labor camp.

While Salomon follows orders to help weaken the economies of Germany's enemies, fellow forger Adolf Burger (August Diehl) realizes the true nature of their work and refuses to use his skills for Nazi profit, forcing Salomon to reconsider his actions.
