Englishman Mr Howard is on a fishing holiday in eastern France when the Germans invade
in 1940. Setting off to try and get back home he is persuaded to take along the two
Cavanaugh children, and as his journey progresses his family keeps growing in size. Once
in German-occupied northern France a new problem arises - the risk of being heard
speaking English.
