Operation: Daybreak

In OPERATION DAYBREAK, the Nazis have positioned maniacal commander Reinhard Heydrich (Anton Diffring) in the Czechoslovakian capital of Prague. Allied intelligence fears that should Hitler fail, Heydrich would continue the deadly expansion of the Third Reich. The British act quickly and send in three Czech parachutists to perform Operation Daybreak--a mission to assassinate Heydrich at any cost. The operation seems to be going according to plan for the Czech liberation movement until one of the parachutists, Sgt. Karel Curda (Martin Shaw), turns from Allied spy to informer, revealing the location of the Czech rebel headquarters to the Nazis. (official distributor synopsis)
