Based on Erich Maria Remarque's novel Flotsam - the film zeroes in on three German refugees during World War II who are at the beck and call of the Nazis, always hiding, always in fear of deportation. The settings for this adventure include WWII Austria, Germany and Switzerland. Margaret Sullavan, a Jewish chemist, is fleeing for her life; and Glenn Ford, born of a Jewish mother and Aryan father, is racked with confusion and torn loyalties. The three main characters separate as they move across Europe, just a step or so ahead of the advancing Nazis. As Sullavan and Ford fall in love, Fredric March's character puts his life on the line by trying to arrange a reunion with his ailing wife, Frances Dee, who has remained in Germany. Critics have stated that even though the score was nominated for an Oscar, it may have done even better at the box office, had it been released a few months after the US's entry into the war.
