Riassunto:

Before Adolf Hitler, there was Talaat Pasha, leader of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. In 1915 Talaat ordered the mass execution of every Armenian within his nation's borders, resulting in the death of over 1,500,000 victims.

This is the story of Soghomon Tehlirian, the Armenian survivor who killed him on the streets of Berlin...and walked away from court a free man.

Operartion Nemesis is based on the true story of a lone man who in 1921 killed the former leader of Turkey on the streets of Berlin and walked away a free man. Why? Because the German jury determined that the deceased was the architect of a nationwide massacre of over one million people.
