Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this British war drama, an Italian soldier marries an Austrian girl and together they return to Italy. When war erupts between the countries, the bride's brother sneaks into Italy as a spy. He bases his operations out of their home. When the husband learns of his brother-in-law's treachery, he kills him. His new wife becomes even more bitter after she is placed in a camp for enemy aliens. As the war progresses, the two are unable to contact each other. Following the war she is released and ends up dancing in a sleazy Egyptian cafe. It is here that her husband finds her at last.
