The Nazis are rising. They are attempting to dominate Europe through land and through culture. That includes the world of motorsport. Enter American-French heiress Lucy Schell. Her attempts to enter a \"mans-world as a driver were met with stiff competition. Undeterred, Schell uses her inheritance to fund a French team to take on the Nazi propaganda machine, and defeat Mercedes-Benz and Auto Union in a grand-prix race. Her choice to lead the team on the track was Renee Dreyfus, who was Jewish. In a true good guys vs. bad guys story, Schell and Dreyfus take on the Nazis on the track to show that even in the darkest of times, good still wins out.
