Monsignor Renard

The folk of St.Josse prepare to celebrate Bastille Day, but liberty, equality and fraternity are in short supply when Gestapo Officer Rudi Brandt descends on the town and unleashes his jackbooted minions. A battle of wills soon develops with Renard, who resists the temptation to collaborate with the invaders. He is arrested for an act of resistance, and his former lover Madeleine is forced to re-examine her attitude towards the Germans.
