Bol Partnerhet is 1941 en kapitein Antonio Corelli, een jonge Italiaan, komt met het bezettingsleger op het Griekse eiland Cephallonia aan. In het begin wordt hij door de bevolking genegeerd, maar omdat hij een rustige soldaat is die vooral graag in vrede de oorlog wil overleven, wordt hij geaccepteerd. Helemaal als de verloofde van de dochter van de plaatselijke arts (lid van de ondergrondse) haar liefdesbrieven niet meer beantwoord en zij en Corelli steeds meer naar elkaar toe trekken
