Description by OLDIES.com:
Parachuting near the occupied village of Lidice, Czech soldier Karel Vavra (Alan Curtis) recruits saboteurs in the fight against the Nazis. Determined to end the resistance, Reich Protector Reinhard Heydrich (John Carradine) murders priests, closes schools and forces the female students to "entertain" German soldiers. Incensed by the atrocities, Vavra and the partisans plot to assassinate Heydrich, an act of reprisal that will ensure Lidice's fate through the hands of Reichsführer Himmler.
