Synopsis
An Italian fascist during the Spanish Civil War, Giorgio Perlasca happened to be in Hungary during the Nazi persecution of Jews in Budapest. Shocked by what he saw, he decided to remain and use his "fascist credentials" to fool the authorities into believing he was a Spanish Consul, saving more than 5,000 Jews from extermination.
