After his parents are killed in a World War II bombing, Tom is sent to
live with relatives on a farm in rural Holland. He’s sad, angry and
scared and resents having to live with his aunt and uncle.
But when Tom gets a German Shepherd, Sniff, to raise, everything
changes. He puts all his trust in Sniff and together they try to make
the best of life even though their village is under German control.
With Sniff’s help, Tom rescues a Dutch pilot that’s been shot down and
wounded. But when a Dutch Nazi collaborator sends soldiers to search
for the pilot, it’s up to Sniff and Tom to expose the traitor. The
pilot escapes back to his unit and Sniff leads the troops back to
liberate the town.
