Gilda, a rich and carefree young woman with no sexual inhibitions becomes briefly involved with Guy, an Irish collage student. Years later, they reunite in Paris, where Gilda is sharing her apartment with Mia, who is a refugee from Spain. Guy is now a schoolteacher. The three live together and Guy and Mia both share a deep love for Gilda.

As the world is drawn closer to war, Guy and Mia leave for Spain, to fight fascism, he as a soldier, and she as a nurse, while Gilda pursues a successful career as a photographer. As Hitler invades Paris, the lives of all three are changed forever.

An excellent film, with great acting, and a very sad ending. Excellent.
