Near the end of World War II, two German deserters are put in an Allied prison camp. When Colonel von Bleicher — the rigid and militaristic commander of German POWs — learns about their desertion, he wants them court-martialed, even if the war has since ended. The uninterested Allied officers oblige him, and the two find themselves facing the firing squad on "the fifth day of peace".
