A thrilling tale of art, beauty and love on the eve of war. In 1938 the Sonderprojekte is established under the watchful eye of Adolf Hitler, aka The Collector — and Germany begins to 'acquire' the great artworks of Europe. Twenty-six-year-old Ernst Vogler is sent to Rome to collect a famous marble statue, The Discus Thrower, and return with it to Berlin in three days. Those few days will change his life forever.
