Plot

American army deserter turned criminal on the run, Eddy Roback, is being chased through the streets of Paris. The fugitive finds his old girlfriend, Denise Vernon (Signoret) and tries to get money from her in an attempt to get across the border to Belgium. The girlfriend's admirer, an American crime reporter (Duke), as well as a countrywide manhunt become obstacles Roback must get past in order to escape. While trying to raise money for him, Denise finds Roback a hiding place in the photographic studio of Max Salva, who may have turned Roback in.
