Synopsis
A young American woman receives attention from men whose German and French ties will soon place them on opposing sides of war. A birthday celebration gives way to military summons and separation. Affection is tested as national conflict reaches beyond Europe into private life.
Released during the year the United States entered the First World War, the film places Mary Pickford within a strongly topical wartime drama. Its national characterisations belong to that moment's persuasive popular entertainment.
