After losing his wife and daughter: oppressed by the political climate and worried he may be conscripted by the Nazis, Doctor Thomas Friedrich Schmidt enlists in the Wehrmacht Medical Corps at the start of World War II.
His main focus in life is to care for the wounded troops, but is unable to come to terms with what is happening around him: the suffering of the Jews: the fruitless loss of life, and the thousands of wounded soldiers who arrive on the hospital trains from the Eastern Front.
The years of conflict leave Thomas war-weary, and being one of the occupiers in an occupied country has its problems, especially when his conscience is constantly pricked. But things begin to change when he meets an Englishwoman in France.
