Three patients from a military hospital for prisoners of war at Lucca, Italy, make a daring night escape from a train taking them to a POW camp in Germany. It's the start of a flight for freedom that takes them across the River Po and the Plain of Lombardy to the Apenines. For 150 miles the three escaped men tramp through enemy territory, dodging Italian police, avoiding Nazi supporters among the Italian populace and trying to keep one step ahead of German soldiers.
