What would you do if an invading army occupied your
country? Denise Dumont answers this difficult question.
After landing a teaching post and marrying Andr© Reynaud,
Denise faces a dilemma when the German army marches into
Paris. The disruption of city services, bombing raids, and
store closings leaves her frightened and furious. Will her
life ever be normal? In 1940 while living in Paris, Denise
joins the Resistance and works with friends to free her
country. She is livid when her aunt moves in with a German
colonel, witnesses the death of her husband, and
courageously endures the lack of food, heat, and
electricity. Later, she moves to the south of France and
becomes more committed to the Resistance after her parents
are murdered. While traveling with a Jewish family, she
makes a harrowing choice which will forever change her
life.
