The remarkable adventures of two British POWs who use a vaulting-horse to cover their escape from the notorious Stalag Luft III; how they evade the military in Germany and are assisted by French workers to escape to Copenhagen, and then to Sweden. This classic escape story of World War II became a best-seller before being filmed - and set the pattern for many similar films.
