In any case, it was inevitable.» Coming from a family of Resistance fighters, Henriette lives the inconceivable : she falls in love with Josef, a young German soldier. Marcel, her friend since childhood, secretly in love with her, discovers their romance and joins the maquis the day before the Liberation.

The reward for his capture is increased as he subsequently kills the men who brutally murder his brother.
