Les aventures tragiques d'un paysan roumain, trop candide dans la période trouble de la seconde guerre mondiale suivie de l'après guerre.
In a small village in Romania, a local police constable frames Johann Moritz (Quinn) on charges of being Jews, because Moritz' wife, Suzanna, has refused his advances. Moritz is sent to a Romanian concentration camp as a Jew, Jacob Moritz. He escapes to Hungary with some Jewish prisoners where the Hungarians imprison them for being citizens of an enemy country (Romania). The Hungarians eventually send them to Germany to fill German "requests" for foreign labourers. In Germany Moritz is spotted by an SS officer who designates him as Aryan, frees him from the labor camp and forces him to join Waffen SS. After the war, Moritz is brutally beaten by Russians for being in the ''Waffen-SS'' and then arrested and prosecuted as a ''Waffen-SS'' war criminal by the Americans. Eventually he is released and re-united with his wife and sons in Germany.
