A dachshund passes from oddball owner to oddball owner, whose radically dysfunctional lives are all impacted by the pooch.

In Spring of 1945, the Wehrmacht forces are weary from retreat, while the Allies are closing in. A single Austrian captain attempts to guide what is left of his platoon behind the Russian lines to surrender to the Americans. They take under their wing a young man with a severe disability. As the loyalty of his men is brought to the test, the captain grows closer to the boy who evokes a deep secret from his past in the Nazi Reich.

Inspired by the real story of a feisty young man determined to convince his scatterbrained brother to teach him how to drive.
