Ester Klein is born in Berlin on February 29, 1920. Petite, frail, strange just like the Weimar Republic. Yet inside her hides immense reserves of strength. From an early age, she will experience both cruelty and affection.
Her life runs through the 20th century in a perfect circle: Berlin – Buchenwald – New York – Berlin. She knows the misery of Nazi concentration camps, losing everything she loved most. She will risk losing her very humanity but will emerge alive. The one who saves her is not a human but a dog. A dog that hides a great secret.
Ester rebuilds her life dedicating it to the protection of animals. At last, she feels safe. Until humanity strikes again. She will respond to hatred and prejudice with love.
From the concentration camp, to McCarthy's America, and back to Cold War Berlin, where she will witness the construction of the Wall and its eventual fall. She carves out her life, reminding us what it means to be human.
