Plot:
Locked in a dark basement, Laura, a psychiatrist in her early thirties, contemplates in horror a video where a man confesses to be a serial killer. His name is Ramon, an apparently normal man in his forties, who seems to be quite harmless. Gagged and bound to a chair, Laura realises that it's the same person who kidnapped her and who is now pacing in the shadows. Ramon continues to speak as he turns off the television. He walks over to her, takes off the gag and challenges Laura to play the "Word Game". If she wins, she gets to go free, but if she loses, he'll poke out her eye. Laura is terrified, but reluctantly accepts. The game begins. Laura makes a mistake. Ramon menacingly moves towards her. Laura's screams are useless.

Plot:
A father and son’s troubled relationship reaches a new level of understanding when the man reveals a story that shaped his life during World War 2. Captured by the Germans and held in a muddy pit, he and three friends had awaited execution if the identity of a saboteur was not discovered. As the hour of their demise approached, their guard began to infuse the situation with a levity that somehow neutralized the pathos of life, death and war. He not only allowed his kindness to transcend the gruesome uniform, but taught the prisoners a lesson none of them would ever forget: that the ultimate weapon in the face of tragedy is humor. A deeply moving tale of salvation and gratitude.
