It is the evening before the holiday of Purim, and the Nazis have given the ghetto's leaders 24 hours to turn over 10 Jews to be hung to "avenge" the deaths of the 10 sons of Haman, the villain of the Purim story, which celebrates the triumph of the Jews of Persia over potential genocide some 2,400 years ago.

His captors, an Arab and an Italian, don’t explain why the innocent Shaltiel has been chosen, just that his life will be bartered for the freedom of three Palestinian prisoners.
