Directed by René Clément. During WWII, Thérèse Dutheil (Simone Signoret) refuses to have any interest in politics, even though her husband is being held prisoner-of-war in Germany. Arriving in the village where she was born, Thérèse learns that an American airplane 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 truck 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...
