During World War II, Helmut Dantine specialized in playing villainous Nazis in Hollywood melodramas. He offers a compelling performance in a variation of these earlier roles in this suspense filled and politically loaded tale of intrigue. The story opens in German-occupied Athens during the darkest hours of the war. Civilians are not allowed on the streets after dark. Dantine plays Demetri Alexander, and the first time he appears on screen he is garbed in a Nazi uniform. It is midnight, and Demetri prowls the streets of the city. He comes upon a shocking sight: the corpse of a young man who was hanged in a town square by the Germans because he was suspected of being a Communist. However, despite his appearance Demetri is neither Nazi collaborator nor Gestapo hooligan. He is a Greek officer who soon leaves Athens and sets out on a perilous journey. He is aided in no small way by the title character. She is the stunningly exotic Zaira, one in a group of patriotic gypsies
