During WWII, Thérèse Dutheil refuses to have any interest
in politics, even though her husband is being held a prisoner-of-war in
Germany. Arriving in the village where she was born,
Thérèse learns that an American aeroplane has been shot
down and that the Germans are looking for the three airmen who
parachuted out to safety before the plane crashed. In the lorry
that is to take her back to Paris, Thérèse is surprised
to find the three American airmen. Having reached their
destination, one of the airmen, Captain Morley, is unable to take
refuge at a pharmacist’s as planned. Instead, he asks
Thérèse to find him a place to stay, believing that she
is in with the French resistance. Thérèse agrees to
hide him at the house of her sister-in-law, Agathe, in spite of the
fact that the latter is far from hostile towards the Germans...
