In the final year of the Second World War, a Lancaster bomber is shot down over Nazi Germany. The tail gunner, a Norwegian named Per, is the only survivor. Tramping through Germany in a seemingly hopeless quest to avoid a POW camp, by chance he saves the life of Benni, a young boy who is the last son of a prominent family. Hailed as a hero, his status uncertain, and with Germany now desperate for labour, Per is put to work in the town's gasthof. He soon makes friends with the local people, especially Siggy, Benni's mother. But in Nazi Germany death is never far away and soon Per's situation becomes precarious. So when a top Nazi, Gauleiter Frunze, playing his own mysterious game, offers Per a chance to return to Norway, he takes it. In spite of the extraordinary condition attached to this offer.
