Plot

WWII: under an agreement with Berlin and London all combatants captured in neutral Ireland are to be imprisoned for the duration of the war......together. It is here that Canadian pilot Miles Keogh and German pilot Rudolph Von Stegenbeck meet after a fight in which both their planes were downed. Although the camp is lax and allows prisoners out for a pint and a gamble, tension rises between the two when they both fall in love with the same local girl. Based on a true story.
