THE COUNTERFEITERS is the fascinating, complex and psychologically revealing true story of the world’s largest counterfeit operation set-up in 1936 in Nazi Germany. When the mischievous Salomon "Sally" Sorowitsch, known for his life of booze, gambling and women, is arrested and thrown into a Jewish concentration camp, he is asked to head up an illegal scheme to produce fake foreign currency. Despite the superior treatment and privileges he and his team are given in the dreadful camp, he is soon forced to choose between his personal survival and assisting a cause that furthers the perversities of the Holocaust.
