Synopsis
Charles Bailly (Fernandel) is a Gallic farmer who has been captured by the Nazis and must work for them in Germany against his will. Eager to flee captivity and his cruel, uncaring German bosses, Charles opts to escape, and boldly makes his way toward France, hiding in plain sight by walking with a cow. Given his unusual situation, Charles befriends the creature, which he names Marguerite, and together they trek across the European countryside towards freedom.
