Content: Abel adores taking pictures of a yong girl who befriends him, and is horrified when she accuses him of an indecent crime against her. The year is 1939. He is sent to the front and taken prisoner by the Germans. A series of twists of fate lead him into the inner sanctum of high-ranking officers of the Third Reich. And so the kind man who loves children acquires the name of the mythical devourer of children, the Ogre, forcibly recruiting youths for the great National Socialist future. Abel goes through an odyssey of deviance and heroism, seemingly transforming into a monster, and at the same time, saving the lives of children to him there is no contradiction.
