February 1945. Air Force Senior Lieutenant Mikhail Devyatayev faces death in the German camp of Sachsenhausen. The brave pilot tried to escape several times, but failed each time. By chance, he manages to change the status of a suicide bomber to the status of a penalty box, after which he ends up in a concentration camp on the island of Usedom in the Baltic Sea. It is there that the Nazis are conducting secret work to create a "weapon of retaliation." Mikhail understands that he must, by all means, inform his own people about this. But how? The camp is well guarded, there is a desert area and an endless cold sea all around. The only chance is to escape from captivity on an enemy plane. This plan looks crazy, but for a desperate ace, nothing is impossible...
