Captain Brand is a crude macho and racist. He kills for money. When his unit is attacked by local rebels, he hands over crucial war documents to save his own life. His commanding officer orders him to retrieve the papers. But this time, someone else is leading the group: the Black Captain Lauderwood. A profound insult to the self-righteous Brand. What the other seven don't initially know: their eighth man is a woman. Dr. Mary Woolster is accompanying them as a doctor. The ice-cold cynic Alain Carres serves as their guide. While the men slaughter the rebel village, he rapes Mary.
