## Synopsis

Almost ten years ago, while filming in the high-security Rahova prison in Romania, the filmmaker met Gavriel Hrieb, a prisoner sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of a prosecutor. On the day of his release on parole after 21 years, Schwartz stands by him as a friend – but is also interested in Gavriel's story as a director. His team accompanied Gavriel for over two years. At first, he was full of hope for a new life, but he found it difficult to find his place. Romania is now part of the EU. The country has changed, and returning to society is difficult. He can't find a job or a place to live that he likes. His mother's inability to cope and still smoldering conflicts weigh heavily on him. The director eventually suspects that his protagonist has not told him the whole truth about his crime and requests access to the murder file.
