N2  - Shot down over the German lines, French Captain de Boieldieu (Pierre Fresnay) and his mechanic Lieutenant Marâechal (Jean Gabin) are confined to a crowded prison camp, until they are transferred to another detention center in a castle commanded by the crippled Captain von Rauffenstein (Erich von Stroheim). Rauffenstein is the flyer who shot them down and is a man obsessed with attending to his noble lineage and the rights and obligations it represents; fatalistic and melancholy, he strikes up a strange friendship with his aristocratic prisoner, that brings the totality of war, national differences, and class differences into bold relief
