The Silent Invasion is a low budget 1962 British film.
During WW II, a German garrison is stationed in the small French town of Mereux. French local Maria falls in love with German captain Eric Von Strafen. However, the romance comes to an abrupt end when her brother, a saboteur working for the Resistance, is killed. Maria now vows to exact revenge and to help the French Resistance any way she can.
TV Guide thought the film "overwrought and too unrealistic to be taken seriously."
