The film depicts the desperate escape of 70 members of an American symphony orchestra from German prisoners of war on the European front during World War II. In addition to the famous actor Charlton Heston's performance as the orchestra's conductor, the climactic escape scene, which is the biggest highlight of the film, features magnificent orchestral performances of masterpieces by Beethoven, Schubert, Wagner, Tchaikovsky, and Brahms, giving the classical music a colorful atmosphere unparalleled in other war films.
