Description:
In the scorching African deserts of September 1942, the German forces led by Field Marshal Erwin Rommel have relentlessly pushed the Allies back to Egypt's borders. The tide needs to turn quickly, as a strategic counter-attack is planned to reclaim lost ground. A pivotal element in this operation involves dismantling the fuel dumps at Tobruk - vital supply lines for the German troops. To accomplish this covert mission, an elite group of British commandos and German Jews embark on an arduous 800-mile desert trek, facing unforgiving terrain, dwindling resources, and the constant threat of discovery by enemy forces. Their success would starve the Germans of crucial fuel, potentially altering the course of the war in North Africa. The film presents a thrilling and intense tale of bravery, resilience, and the lengths people will go to forge unexpected alliances in times of crisis.
