In 1943, Rudolf Höss, commandant of the German Auschwitz concentration camp, lives with his wife Hedwig and their five children in an idyllic home next to the camp. Höss takes the children out to swim and fish, and Hedwig spends time tending the garden. Non-Jewish inmates handle the chores, and the murdered Jews' best belongings are given to the family.
