Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
In the years immediately following World War II, chaos and violence touched the lives of many Germans. In this story, Anna (Pola Kinski) has been damaged by some such incident. Nonetheless, she is able to fall in love with a German-born American member of the Occupation Forces, Colonel Stone (Mel Ferrer). Later, she marries Alfons Eichmayr, and finds her life narrowing unbearably.
