During World War II, Lieutenant Luger ( Martin Kemp ), a German POW stuck in a British prison camp, leads an attempt to escape from the camp.

Learning that one of the men he betrayed is alive and in recovery, Luger attempts to silence him before another team of escapees he joins together with finds out about his treason.
