Alors qu'il lui reste un an de détention à tirer, Stéphane Carella, casseur notoire, doit être transféré dans une autre prison dans un fourgon de gendarmerie dont le trajet passe dans les gorges du Verdon. Mais les gendarmes viennent en aide à des collègues, dont le véhicule vient d'avoir un léger accident, les obligeant à menotter Carella avec un certain Paul Brandon, individu apparemment violent et dangereux. C'est alors que Brandon neutralise un gendarme et s'évade en compagnie de Carella, avec lequel il est toujours menotté. Après avoir escaladé des falaises et plongé dans un torrent pour échapper à leurs poursuivants, les deux hommes réussissent à échapper aux policiers et trouvent refuge dans une maison isolée où vit Laura.

Set in October 1920, it tells the story of Major Dellaplane, a man whose job is to find the identities of unknown dead soldiers after World War I. Dellaplane forms a relationship with a woman who is looking for her missing husband, but a dilemma begins when he learns that her husband may still be alive. The movie is a sensitive examination of the deep psychological scars left behind by the Great War, clear of sentiment yet with delicately nuanced irony.
