Product Description
Five Holocaust survivors conspire to seek revenge upon the Nazi doctor who tormented them in their youth. The five survivors are women living in San Diego and all have vividly painful memories of the atrocities Wilheim Gehbert(Rip Torn) put them through. Their memories come flooding back when they discover Gehbert innocently running a local restaurant. Realizing that no one else will rightly punish him for what he has done, the ladies unite to take justice into their own hands.

 Worth Watching June 5, 2006
Far from perfect but far from being a bomb too. This is a subject matter that only HBO or Showtime would do today. This is a story of a group of women who have survived the German Death Camps. Its now the 1970's in Los Angeles and these women see the man who harmed them in the death camps. As a group they decide to kill him. An all-star cast makes it worth watching! This is a movie they could and should be re-made.

My review is full of superlatives sadly all of them negative. It must be the most disappointing film I have seen in years. It is a must for anyone who wants to see how to take the most compelling themes of drama, justice, retribution, revulsion, that humanity can raise and then trample them in a travesty of poor research, wretched script writing, and one dimensional characterisation. Oh and I forgot -the most unbelievable European accents ever to be mangled by otherwise fine actresses. The only departments to acquit themselves well were the wardrobe and props which are delightfully 1970's kitch. Finally, though I do not know much of the American legal system, whoever heard of a potential witness of fact for the defence trying to double as a lawyer? It's stupid for the defendants and repugnant to the court and the profession. Viewing this film seems a waste of part of my short span on this planet.
