Jeb (Robert Mitchum Robert Mitchum) has lost his parents since childhood, but also fell into the hatred of his parents and almost lost his life. The kind Mrs. Madora (Judith Anderson Judith Anderson) rescues Jeb and takes him back to her home as if he were her own. Mrs. Madora has two children, Solly (Teresa White Teresa Wright) and Adam (John Rodney John Rodney). Jeb is not related to them, but with three children and Mrs. Madora, the four depend on each other to run a small farm in troubled times, and the relationship between the family is very close. In the twinkling of an eye, as the children grew up, the relationship between Jeb and Solly began to change subtly, from simple affection to love. The Spanish-American War broke out, and Jeb was chosen to go to the front by flipping a coin. Lucky or unfortunate, Jeb was injured in the leg and was eligible for retirement ahead of time. But what he didn't expect was that when he returned to his hometown with joy, everything on the farm, especially.
