Storyline
It’s 1936, and you’re Jan Alter, a Jewish smith living in Muranów.
One night as you’re heading home, you see a strange woman pointing at you. She starts to recite
a bizarre poem:
The darkest years shall soon begin
The darkest years the world has seen
The lord has asked to save your soul
To spare thee angst is now my goal
I’ll count to three and you’ll be safe
In ninety years must you be brave
And if you can’t escape remorse
Here’s your time turner - a pink horse
You feel dizzy and pass out. When you wake up, it’s 2020. Now your goal is to find a way back.
