Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Yugoslav nationals crop the hair of a village quintet of women believed to have consorted with occupying Nazi soldiers. Four, for various reasons, admit to being guilty. Their seducer is a swaggering sergeant who is emasculated by the partisans when they catch him alone with one of the women in a nearby forest. Escorted out of town by the Nazis, the forlorn ladies soon link up, militarily and romantically, with a band of tough mountain guerrillas. Written by alfiehitchie / Hans Delbruck |
