In postwar Brittany, Marise Aubert learns that her husband has died trying to escape a Nazi prison camp, and the soldier who witnessed it soon becomes entwined with her grief. Greer Garson is Marise, a widow trying to rebuild her life in a French fishing village, while Richard Hart's Jean brings both the news of her loss and an unexpected new attachment. Robert Mitchum is Paul, the missing husband whose fate shapes the story from the start. The film centers on love and mourning in the uneasy space between wartime absence and what comes after.
