The originally peaceful life of the Frenchman André (played by Michel Galabru) and his granddaughter Jeanne (played by Julie Delarme) is disrupted by the arrival of World War II and the occupation of France by the German army. What they find even harder to accept is that one of the rooms in their home has been requisitioned as the living quarters of a German officer named Werner (played by Thomas Jouannet). They maintain a cold attitude towards this enemy officer, especially Jeanne, who never speaks to him, even when he greets them. Unexpectedly, after spending several days together, this young officer begins to discuss his life, music, and French culture with them, revealing the secret inner world beneath his Nazi uniform. At the same time, Jeanne actively participates in the activities of the French resistance against the German army. Gradually, a strange emotion develops between the two young people from opposing sides. This feeling culminates in a single sentence from Jeanne as they part ways, which is the first and only thing she says to him... This film is adapted from the novel of the same name written by the French author Vercors in 1941.
