The story recounts the fate of a young daydreamer from rural Switzerland, based on true events, who is exploited and betrayed during the Second World War. Hoping to become a famous singer in Germany, Ernst Schrämli sells Swiss military information to a manipulative German spy. When his crime is exposed, Ernst is sentenced to death in a questionable trial for espionage and treason—allowing Switzerland to make a visible statement of neutrality in a precarious wartime situation. Ernst Schrämli became the first of 17 traitors in Swiss history to be executed.
