Kohler just has time to report his discovery to Nazi hunter Ezra Liebermann in Vienna before he is murdered. Liebermann begins to investigate the case and realizes that he has discovered an evil plan to murder a number of seemingly randomly selected men around the world on a given date. The more he digs into the case, the more his worst nightmares seem to come true. The film was nominated for three Oscars, including Best Actor for Laurence Olivier in the role of Ezra Lieberman.
