Captured French Resistance fighter Lieutenant Fontaine awaits a certain death sentence for espionage in a stark Nazi prison in Lyon, France. Facing malnourishment and paralyzing fear, he must plot an extraordinary escape, complicated by the questions of whom to trust, and what lies beyond the small portion of the prison they are housed in.
Lyon, 1943. A man named Fontaine, who worked for the French Resistance, is captured by the Nazis and held captive in a prison in France along with a multitude of other men and women the Nazis charge have or are plotting against them. None know what their fates will be, although they can hear executions by firing squad on site from their prison cells. When Fontaine settles into the second cell in which he is housed in the prison, he finds an possible way out of his cell without his captors knowing. From that starting point and an iron spoon he secretly keeps as his only tool, Fontaine decides that he will escape from the cell, which will take meticulous planning and great patience. Once out he plans to escape from the prison itself. Not knowing anyone in the prison before his arrival, he has to decide who he can trust, as he will need the cooperation of others along the way. A break to his routine takes place just as he thinks he may have all the tools ready to make a legitimate escape attempt when he finds out his sentence. He Is forced to make decisions on moving ahead with his plan immediately and takes even greater risks.
