Traumatisé par son récent séjour au front, le sergent Michael Dunne est affecté au bureau de recrutement, où ses supérieurs emploient des méthodes abusives pour grossir les rangs de l'armée canadienne. Épris de Sarah, une infirmière de guerre qui l'a soigné à son retour, Michael découvre bientôt que celle-ci est morphinomane et que son père, d'origine allemande, est parti combattre en Europe dans le camp ennemi.
