Plot

War Flowers is an American Civil War tale about a woman in North Carolina named Sarabeth Ellis whose husband has been called up for military service by the Confederate States of America. While she and her little daughter Melody suffer with food shortage they are frequently molested by a creepy neighbour. After a skirmish on the family's premises they discover a gravely wounded Union soldier who is using their cellar as hide-out. Together with her daughter Sarabeth decides to nurse him back to health and even hides him when soldiers of the Confederacy check the house. Once the Union soldier has recovered, Sarabeth makes sure he is taken back to the Union troops. But when he returns he is taken for a spy. Sarabeth runs out of food and her house is burned to the ground. Moreover, she learns her husband is dead.
