An island where old Anton, deprived of his beer garden -- now dominated by the Nazi village officials, makes a slim livelihood of raising radishes and manages to escape any sort of jurisdiction due to the fact that his island disappears under flood tide for part of each year. Add to this constant irritant the fact that Anton dares to scoff at the Nazis.
