This is a true story. During WWII, the Nazis combed their POW camps and extracted the best escape artists, sending them to a maximum-security camp called "Stalag Luft". Here, the prisoners were encouraged to quietly wait out the war, expending their energy on recreational activities provided to them instead of escaping. However, these born escape artists (mostly British and some American officers) cannot help themselves. Almost immediately they begin to hatch a colossal escape plan that will free more men in a single night than has ever been done before. This movie chronicles the incredible planning, detail, and determination that went into this complicated escape. It also follows each man involved in the plan from its inception to the outcome of their great escape.
