In the midst of World War II, young David, grappling with his father's death, is evacuated to the countryside. When a German plane crashes nearby, he faces a harrowing choice: follow his instincts or his conscience. As he and his friend Tucky confront the enemy airmen, they must decide whether to act with compassion or hatred. Will they leave the airmen to their fate, or will they risk everything to help? This gripping tale explores the complexities of war, humanity, and the choices that define us.
