Le Protecteur du Reich Heydrich meurt après un attentat à Prague. La loi martiale est instaurée. Trois lycéens sont arrêtés par les Allemands pour avoir commis une plaisanterie innocente et sont exécutés. Seul, un vieux professeur de latin condamne la terreur nazie et clame « En termes de principe moral supérieur, assassiner un tyran n'est pas un crime ! ». Par cet exemple, les autres professeurs qui s'apprêtaient à jurer fidélité à l'occupant se rétractent.
