Synopsis
Paris during the Nazi Occupation.  A patrol of German soldiers raid a house from which illicit radio transmissions are being sent.  The man inside is killed whilst trying to escape but his wife, Cora, manages to get to safety.  Cora decides to have her revenge by taking her husband’s place in the French Resistance.  Her first assignment, to steal the plans of a new missile, is a success.  Not long after this, she meets a Swiss journalist named Werner in a café.  She falls for his charms, not knowing that he is in fact a German officer...
