The story takes place in Poland in 1944, where the iron heel of the German army has trampled this land of suffering, turning it into a hell on earth. As a Jewish boy, Jacob (played by Robin Williams) and many boys like him are forced to work like slaves for the Germans, all channels of information are blocked by the military, and Poland has become a lonely city. One day, Jacob accidentally hears on the radio that the German army is engaged in fierce combat with the Soviet army, with the battle taking place just a few hundred kilometers away in Benshanik. Filled with high spirits, Jacob decides to share this precious news with more people, and with Jacob's embellishments, the Soviet allies are depicted as having gained an irreversible advantage in the fighting. This false information boosts the morale of the Jewish people, but it also reaches the ears of the German army, which begins a meticulous investigation, intent on capturing the instigator of the rumors.
