Plot

A young Polish soldier is accused of espionage by the Soviets during the early days of World War II. He is sentenced to a brutal Siberian gulag for 20 years. The intense misery of life in the gulag convinces the Pole that his only chance at life is escape. He assembles a team of co-conspirators, an eccentric ragtag bunch from all different backgrounds and nations. The group makes a daring escape but their ordeal and quest for freedom is only beginning. Now they must walk thousands of miles spanning five countries, including crossing the Himalayan mountains, to gain freedom.
