Everything continues as usual on the Goetgebuer family farm until rumors start circulating in the village that the belligerent Germans want to march through Belgium to France. Shortly afterwards, Leontine's husband is called up to the front. During the war, the Goetgebuer children are forced to take in two wounded German soldiers. Although Leontine is the central character in the film, it is once again the three brothers and Aunt Cordula who steal the show.
