Summary:
A European man who is desperate to immigrate to America, stows away and dodges quarantine to enlist the help of a pretty, down-on-her-luck jazz musician he helped in the war. "Peter Kurban, un sin papeles húngaro que ha sobrevivido a los campos de concentración, intenta huir del servicio de inmigración norteamericano. Acosado por la policía, tiene 24 horas para encontrar a un ex-soldado al que salvó de los nazis durante la guerra, pero cuya identidad desconoce. En esta carrera contrarreloj, Peter conocerá a Maggie, otra marginada a quien el paro y la miseria han condenado a una espiral de delincuencia."--Container.
