EXT. PALACE OF JUSTICE, NUREMBERG, MORNING, NOVEMBER 1945
A military transport truck rumbles to a stop on cobblestones
still damp from rain. The Palace of Justice rises four
stories, its limestone facade pocked by shrapnel marks.
Scaffolding covers the east wing. A broken window has been
boarded over.
HANNAH KRONER (26) steps down from the truck bed. She wears a
wool coat, a leather satchel over one shoulder. Her hair is
pinned back. Her face holds no expression. She walks to the
entrance where an AMERICAN GUARD stands with a clipboard.
The guard checks her credentials. A photograph. A name. He
looks at her face. She meets his eyes. He waves her through.
She crosses the threshold. The smell of plaster dust and coal
heat fills the corridor.
