The Stirn family's extraordinary true story takes place in a Wisconsin camp during World War II, where they live alongside Nazi prisoners of war, finding themselves at the heart of a pivotal historical moment.

In the summer of 1944, Frank Stirn moves to Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, to become a barber for the American Army and POW camp, struggling with feelings of inadequacy for not being able to fight. When a Nazi SS Officer threatens his wife, Frank must stand up for her. Meanwhile, Frank's daughter befriends a German prisoner boy, and a local priest struggles to accept the romantic relationship between a Catholic woman and a Jewish soldier.
