   According to this:   
      
   - When Nazerman learns that his pawnshop is a money laundering front for a   
   pimp, he must confront both his complicity in exploiting women for profit and   
   his will to ignorance in refusing to piece together the clues he might have   
   recognized buried in    
   everyday procedures. Participation in prostitution crushes him, for his   
   Holocaust memories include being forced to witness his wife service a Nazi   
   soldier.
