A frozen girl with a Jewish star and the wrongs that Šumava does not forget.
A detective story from the present day, set against the backdrop of real historical events connected with the top-secret Vltava Springs concentration camp.
The horrific discovery of the body of a Vimperk high school student, who seems to have been uprooted from her very core by the Sumava hills, shocks the inhabitants of villages near the former border zone. A dead girl dressed up in a Jewish uniform becomes not only a fat morsel for tabloid journalists, but above all a new opportunity for the aging police commissioner. While he has hopes of repairing his tarnished reputation and gaining recognition from colleagues and loved ones, memories of past wrongs are beginning to awaken in the locals.
The girl's striped pyjamas seemed to bring the never-resolved fate of the imprisoned Soviet prisoners and the secret of Hitler's secret factory under Table Mountain back to the present.
