- Synopsis:
Five RAF pilots are shot down over occupied France. Led by their Squadron Leader, Free French hero Paul Lavallier (Paul Henreid), they decide to head for Paris to make contact with the resistance. Occupied Paris, however, is one of the most dangerous cities in the world - a city filled with spies, collaborators, informants and ruthless Gestapo agents. A city where one wrong word could easily cost you your life. As Paul desperately tries to find the resistance, he becomes involved with Joan (Michele Morgan), an innocent young barmaid who unwittingly gets caught up in his escape plans. Paul knows the Gestapo are already on to him and are playing a deadly cat and mouse game. What he doesn't know is that the Nazis are also watching Joan...As the Germans prepare to spring their trap, Joan is faced with an agonising choice - betray the man she has come to love or face a firing squad... - Actors:
