Price, a British captain, and Hartnell, a sergeant under him, take command of a group of displaced persons after WW II. The group is being kept at a large German theater as they wait to be transported to different countries. Price's biggest problem is trying to keep the peace between people of different nationalities. But then a dying man is believed to have the plague. When the theater is quarantined, the people drop their differences and band together. They jump at each others' throats again as soon as the plague theory is discounted. When an innocent young woman is murdered, Price declares over her body that there can only be peace in the world when people put aside their differences and learn to live as brothers. leave a comment
