But Not in Vain

The farm of Jan Alting, a Dutch patriot who has disowned his son for his collaboration with German forces, is known by the resistance as a place of refuge. With the help of his daughter, Alting provides shelter for Jewish couple Mark and Mary Meyer, van Nespen, an aristocrat with links to the underground movement, and Bakker, a Communist wanted for sabotage. When Jan's son Anton unexpectedly returns he orders his father to turn the shelterers in -- or he will shoot them all. Jan is faced with the stark moral choice of failing those to whom he has given refuge, or conspiring with them to kill his own son.
