The story

In 1940, Czechoslovak Army Captain Karel Hašek escapes from Dachau and reaches France during the German invasion. He assumes the identity of a dead British officer, Geoffrey Mitchell, and becomes a prisoner of war after the German victory. Hašek is initially suspected of being a spy by the British prisoners, because he can speak German and no one else from Mitchell's unit was captured.
