Sergeant-Major Charles Coward, a brave British soldier is captured by German forces during World War II. When he's thrown into a prisoner of war camp, he immediately plans his escape.

Though he is ultimately discovered, he goes on to courageously pursue his freedom with a whimsical and undying audacity.
