Epilogue

In our series finale, we return to Hamburg forty years later through the eyes of David Cohen, now a 65-year-old American attorney who built a life defending the voiceless.

Through intimate conversations and haunting memories, we learn what became of the resistance network members and those whose lives intertwined with David's during those dark days. Witness how memory becomes both burden and blessing, and how true friendship leaves an indelible mark that transcends time, distance, and even the darkest chapters of human history.
