Young lovers in a French village are torn apart with the coming of the Great War.

A group of youngsters grow up and love in a peaceful French village. But war intrudes and peace is shattered. The German army invades and occupies village, bringing both destruction and torture. The young people of the village resist, some successfully, others tragically, until French troops retake the town.—Jim Beaver <[email protected]>
