Overview: The German conquerors are above nothing, not even the slaughter of small children, to break the spirit of their Soviet captives.

Eventually, the villagers rise up against their oppressors-but unexpectedly do not wipe them out, electing instead to force the surviving Nazis to stand trial for their atrocities in a postwar "people's court."
