Synopsis
In 1940, two French soldiers--Roger, a former baker, and Jean, a former journalist--are captured and sent to work on a German farm. The wily Jean seduces Helga, the daughter of the farmer, and then tricks her into helping him escape. The more scrupulous Roger, however, remains behind to continue helping out on the farm and becomes deeply attached to Helga and her family. Jean swims the Rhine, takes part in the Resistance, and is appointed editor of a radical newspaper at the end of the war. Roger returns home to find that his wife has made a fortune during the war and is now a nagging shrew. The two men later meet in Paris, and Roger announces that he intends to leave his bakery and wife and return to Helga. Jean is so influenced by Roger's decision that he decides to resign from the newspaper and marry Florence, his mistress whom he abandoned because she was a collaborator during the German occupation of France. Unknown to Jean, Florence saved him from arrest by sleeping with a Gestapo agent, and is now unwilling to marry him.
