Walter Otto Wyss emigrates after a tragic car accident in Zurich in 1939 into the USA. In America he designs a revolutionary hybrid car, which stays a prototype.

The last 30 years of his life Walter spends in Honolulu. Despite many opportunities to achieve his dream of freedom, success, and happiness, Walter Otto Wyss was not able to set himself free from his mother, his homeland and his heavy guilt.
