One of the great untold stories of World War II unfolds in this suspenseful adventure-drama. During the last perilous months of the conflict, Vienna's famed Spanish Riding School - and its prized Lipizzan stallions - is threatened by devastating bombing raids and indifferent Nazi commanders. Despite the dangers involved in evacuating the magnificent animals, the school's director (Robert Taylor) and a handful of heroic citizens attempt a daring, life-threatening plan to move the stallions away from the ravages of war and, more importantly, keep the historic breed alive. The movie is based on the true story of a famed Spanish riding school in Vienna, which bred stately Lipizzan horses.
