Four young North Africans enlist in the
French Army to liberate France, their
“motherland,” from the Nazis. They are
among the 130,000 “indigenous soldiers”
fighting in World War II who must combat
prejudice within the army. They win
numerous battles, but soon find themselves
alone to defend an Alsatian village against
a German battalion.
