Angel and Sinner is a 1945 movie directed by Christian-Jaque. Normandy, 1870. Prostitute Élisabeth decides to leave France, occupied by the Prussian army. She leaves Rouen and heads for Le Havre in a stagecoach with a group of aristocrats. When the carriage stops at an inn, a Prussian officer forbids the passengers to continue their journey until Élisabeth spends the night with him. At first, she refuses to submit to the enemy, but out of pity for her fellow passengers, she relents. And still, the stagecoach did not get far - it is captured by Prussian soldiers.
