After losing his job and his marriage, Chic Lucas -- born Czeslaw Lukaszczyk -- journeys to Poland, where his grandfather died in Auschwitz and his father came out scarred for life. Exploring his family's past, Chic becomes increasingly entangled in Poland's rich and tragic history, with its dizzying blend of heroism and complicity. Caught between Jewish friends demanding restitution, Polish farmers barely scraping by, skinheads, lawyers, and two beautiful women, Lucas must find a way to reconcile the irreconcilable and become a peacemaker.
