Finally discovering that his brooding father has been haunted for years by his role in the murder of a brutal SS officer just after the war, young Tamiroff learns that the Nazi is still alive. Haunting, poetic, and very contemporary, "The Fifth Son "builds to an unforgettable climax as the son sets out to complete his father's act of revenge.
