| ~Plot Synopsis~ |
Seven young English aviators are billeted at the Berthelot farm near the French front. One of the
flyers, Philip Blythe, falls in love with farmer Berthelot's daughter, Jeannie, and on the morning
before a dangerous mission declares his love for her. Philip is shot down, and Jeannie helps an
ambulance crew to extricate his apparently lifeless body from the wrecked plane. In the following
weeks, Jeannie searches in vain in all of the military army hospitals for Philip. She does encounter
Philip's father, who, disapproving of her lowly origins, falsely informs her that Philip has died. In
farewell, Jeannie sends a bouquet of lilacs to his room, and Philip, recognizing the flowers as her
gift, painfully drags himself to his window in time to call her back to him.
