A small Irish town is occupied by British troops during the First World War. The Irish resent their occupation and are sympathetic to the Germans. A married woman in the town falls in love with an injured British Officer recently returned from the trenches.
Irish rebels try to use the town as the location to land a shipment of German arms.
They are betrayed and the woman is assumed to be the culprit. She is punished by a mob of townspeople who believe she is the traitor. The priest is a model for a caring and loving pastor. This film shows Ireland during the First World War. There are several shootings in this film, none particularly graphic.
