Slovenia, WWII: two young orphans, German Lotti (Evelyne Wohlfeiler) and a Slovenian boy named Marko (Tugo Štiglic), escape from a town which has been just been bombed in a US air-raid. They have heard someone talk about a lost valley where there is still peace and they set out to find it. Right above them, an African-American pilot is parachuted from his fighter plane that was shot down by the German army. Sergeant Jim (John Kitzmiller) discovers the children, but he can’t bring himself to leave them to their fate–even if they slow down his escape. Both Germans and Partisans know that the pilot has survived. Which one of them will find him first?
