En février 1976, à Djibouti (alors partie du Territoire français des Afars et des Issas), des terroristes indépendantistes prennent en otage un bus assurant la tournée de ramassage scolaire d'enfants de militaires français. Le bus s’enlise ensuite à une centaine de mètres de la frontière avec la Somalie, à Loyada. Les autorités françaises envoient alors sur place une unité de tireurs d'élite de la Gendarmerie nationale française. Cette équipe va devoir mener une opération à haut risque afin de libérer les enfants otages. D'après la bande annonce, cette opération marquerait par ailleurs les débuts du Groupe d'intervention de la Gendarmerie nationale (GIGN), créé en 1973 et réorganisé « au printemps 1976 ».

The movie starts off with a man, named Schlomo (Lionel Abelanski), running crazily through a forest, with his voice playing in the background, saying that he has seen the horror of the Nazis in a nearby town, and he must tell the others. Once he gets into town, he informs the rabbi, and together they run through the town and once they have got enough people together, they hold a town meeting. At first, many of the men do not believe the horrors they are being told, and many criticize Schlomo, for he is the town lunatic, and who could possibly believe him? But the rabbi believes him, and then they try to tackle the problem of the coming terrors. Amidst the pondering and the arguing, Schlomo suggests that they build a train, so they can escape by deporting themselves. Some of their members pretend to be Nazis in order to ostensibly transport them to a concentration camp, when in reality, they are going to Palestine via Russia. Thus the Train of Life is born.

Five French soldiers are convicted of self-mutilation in order to escape military service during World War I. They are condemned to face near certain death in the no man's land between the French and German trench lines. It appears that all of them were killed in a subsequent battle, but Mathilde, the fiancée of one of the soldiers, refuses to give up hope and begins to uncover clues as to what actually took place on the battlefield. She is all the while driven by the constant reminder of what her fiancé had carved into one of the bells of the church near their home, MMM for Manech Aime Mathilde (Manech Loves Mathilde; a pun on the French word aime, which is pronounced like the letter "M". In the English-language version, this is changed to "Manech's Marrying Mathilde").
