Captain Von Strafen (Eric Flynn), the commanding officer of a German force, occupying a French village during the Second World War, does his upmost to gain the villagers friendship. Resentful of their Nazi oppressors the villagers embark on a programme of sabotage and set out to destroy the German truck convoy.
The mission which is headed by Argen with help from Mme. Veroux, her young niece (Petra Davies) and nephew Jean fails. Jean and Argen are taken prisoner and against Captain Von Strafens orders they are shot.
More bitter then ever the villagers induce Maria to obtain information from Von Strafen who, has by this time, fallen in love with her. However, Maria is beginning to fall in love with the Captain too, and soon her feelings threaten to divide her loyalties and put her in an impossible situation endangering her own life, the life of the Captain, and the success of her mission on which the fate of all the villagers hangs
