During the last winter of World War II, Izaak must change his name to Jan and leave his mother
and his hiding place in Amsterdam to travel with Els, a bike courier, to live on a farm in the
northern part of the Netherlands. Although the people are kind to him, he is miserable until he
makes friends with a beautiful black horse, Hero, a Frisian stallion wanted by the Germans. When
the Germans come for the horse, only Izaak can think of a way to save him.
