France, 1940. In the first days of occupation, beautiful Lucile Angellier is trapped in a stifled existence with her controlling mother-in-law as they both await news of her husband: a prisoner of war. Parisian refugees start to pour into their small town, soon followed by a regiment of German soldiers who take up residence in the villagers' own homes. Lucile initially tries to ignore Bruno von Falk, the handsome and refined German officer staying with them. But soon, a powerful love draws them together and leads them into the tragedy of war.

Occupied French villages become claustrophobic pressure cookers where the sudden arrival of German soldiers disrupts a quiet, stifled domesticity. Amidst the tension of wartime uncertainty, a forbidden connection flickers between a lonely woman and an enemy officer.
