The movie will tell the story of what happened in the chaotic and dangerous days after Hitler's suicide and before Germany's surrender. American and Russian forces were colliding with Germans. Some of them pledged to fight to the death but others were resigned to the lost cause and were desperate to survive the final days.

American Capt. Jack Lee and the remains of his tank division were pressed into the assignment of freeing VIP prisoners from certain death, so they could help build post-war Europe and provide damning war crimes testimony. Lee had to get there before the 400 Waffen SS troops sent to exterminate the prisoners. Lee teams up with a German officer and his men who had given up the fight to take on the hated SS.
