Description
A deeply emotional life story based on a true event. Tours are still held at the Mill, where this story is recounted... A gripping tale of two brothers who promised their dying father that they would protect their mill and property against all odds. Can such a promise be kept under all circumstances?

They protected their property against the Nazis, communists, and entrepreneurs. But at what cost...
