- Overview
- This wacky comedy takes place in the weeks leading up to the Allied invasion of Normandy during World War II. With the Allies uncertain as to what the Germans have in store for them after the invasion, it's up to one Jewish paratrooper to sneak into Germany's top-secret army base and steal the plans!
