A French woman, Nicole, vows revenge against the Nazis during WW 2. She joins the French Resistance fighters and takes part in attacks on German trains and installations. She falls in love with an American agent, Falcon, who was parachuted into France to work with the French Resistance in preparation for D Day.
Two German soldiers surrender to them during an attack on a German installation. The fighters hold them as prisoners of war and plan to turn them over to the Americans who have landed on the Normandy coast. But the D Day invasion stalls for many days. The Resistance group is fearful that their prisoners would escape and sent the Naziz to shoot them. They decides to execute the prisoners. Nicole tries to save the "good" German who is an anti-Nazi.
Nicole is forced to defend herself from a former schoolmate who has been recruited into the Milice, the French copy of the German Gestapo.
She presses Falcon for romantic attention, but he tells her, even though he doesn't have a girl friend, he must avoid any connection that would take away from his mission. Nicole realizes that he must be lying and has a girl friend.
