Imperial Austro-Hungarian occupation troops in Rumania draft the local men into labor units and send them throughout the empire. Two such people, a man and a boy picked up from the streets at random, are thrown together and make the best of it, become friends, fight, escape, romance a pair of Yugoslavian women, and eventually return to Rumania only to be rounded up again. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
