Russian children out in the fields gathering grain find themselves in the path of the invading German Army making its way to Stalingradt. The four youths, Kolya, Grisha, Pavel, and the girl, Nadya, realize the Germans are attacking, so they set fire to the field's harvest. Returning to their village, the children find Tommy, a hurt English consulate's son, who fled the city with his parents, who perished in the attempt. They stretcher him to their village for recovery. Still alive in the rubble of the village is a young child, Yuri, whom the group takes in, too. Kolya, the oldest, assumes leadership and skirmishes to find food for the group. He discovers a German tank encampment and sabotages a tank. A Nazi major sends men to scout the village and are met by resistance from the children using found weapons. The major believes a large guerrilla force is present and halts his advance to neutralize it.
