Overview

While France is occupied, Louise (70) tries not to give in to despair and continues to open the doors of her small provincial bar every day. The militiamen leaning on the bar are customers like any others. Everyone turns a blind eye when Louise buys from the black market to serve a kitchen worthy of its name. But in early 1943, on a cold January day, an English paratrooper landed in a tree not far from the bar. Louise, always fearless, comes to his aid. With Emile's help, she hides the newcomer in her cellar. Without realizing it, Louise has just joined the resistance...
