Thirty-six Jewish concentration camp jewelers are assigned the task of appraising these gemstones, that would be used as collateral for Hitler's prosecution of the war.

The plan's success is threatened, however, when the group's leader suspects a traitor in their midst, turning the mission into a tangled web of intrigue and betrayal.
