Alicia Browning (Remick) is a casting director in New York City whose grown son is shot to death in Munich, Germany by police when he apparently tried to attack a doctor who was attending the annual Oktoberfest. When Alicia travels to Germany—her native homeland—to investigate, she finds the old Nazi Lebensborn breeding programs still alive and wanting her son's child—her grandchild—that he fathered with a German girlfriend before his death, for their attempts to recreate Hitler's so-called 'master race' and a modern-day Fourth Reich.
