Synopsis
Après la Première Guerre mondiale, à Budapest, deux bandes de gamins s'opposent pour la possession d'un terrain vague. Les chefs respectifs, Boka et Feri Ats, conduisent leurs troupes militairement. Dans celle de Boka, Nemecsek, le fils d'un tailleur, fait tout pour être reconnu et monter en grade, mais son chef n'y prête pas attention. Un jour, Gereb, un des membres de la bande, trahit et permet à Feri Ats et à ses acolytes de s'emparer du drapeau des compagnons de Boka. Nemecsek voit là le moyen de se faire remarquer en tentant seul de reprendre le fanion. Mais ces jeux dangereux vont vite tourner au drame.Actors

The storyline of the film follows several women who volunteer for the Canteen and who must adhere to strict rules of conduct, the most important of which is that while their job is to provide friendly companionship to and be dance partners for the (often nervous) men who are soon to be sent into combat, no romantic fraternization is allowed. One volunteer who confesses to only becoming involved in the Canteen in order to be discovered by one of the Hollywood stars in attendance, ultimately finds herself falling in love with one of the soldiers.
