Subscribe FreeBased on the true story and the book by Paul Brickhill, "The Great Escape" tells the story of allied prisoners of war who plot a massive escape from a Nazi prison camp. In 1943, the Germans opened Stalang Luft North, a maximum-security prisoner-of-war camp, designed to hold even the craftiest escape artists. In doing so, however, the Nazis unwittingly assembled the finest escape team in military history who worked on what became the largest prison breakout ever attempted. (Gary Reber)
