Дочь генерала в отставке, Марта замужем за офицером, у них подрастает маленький сын... Но разразилась война. Муж погибает на фронте. Спустя годы Марта вторично выходит замуж и вновь за офицера. Снова война... Неужели всё повторится?.. Нет, на семью старого генерала выпадет гораздо больше страшных испытаний... Антивоенный характер фильма (премьера которого состоялась через две недели после начала Первой мировой) заявлен уже в названии, но авторам, среди которых и сценарист Карл Теодор Дрейер, удалось отойти от банального противопоставления радостей мирной жизни с ужасами войны. Никто не романтизирует войну, даже старый генерал с его ура-патриотизмом. Война здесь - как данность, никто не властен предотвратить её, даже друг генерала, военный министр. Масштабные батальные сцены меркнут на фоне впечатляющих картин последствий войны: тысячи раненых, беженцы, разрушения и, в довершение, эпидемия холеры. Во многом картина оказалась пророческой.
