Synopsis

In 1944, Anglo-American officers detained in Poland managed to escape by digging a tunnel. Their feat inspired the famous film "The Great Escape".

This daring method had already been used by French prisoners in September 1943. About 132 men absconded this way.

Former officer detainees tell of their incredible and dearly paid adventures.
