After losing her husband in the Great War, a French mother finds she can no longer cope with the family farm. She only manages to do so when a German prisoner-of-war is assigned to her as a labourer.
A poor Flemish girl is caught stealing. The German occupying forces punish her severely: four months in prison or an impossibly large fine. She flees in secret and passes an electrified security fence at the Belgian border.
An underage French schoolboy is full of patriotic enthusiasm at the start of the war. Against the will of his parents he signs up. His romantic dreams of honour soon give way to disillusionment with modern warfare.
