In the Cold War era of post-World War II Britain, the government decides to establish a guided Surface-to-air missile base on the Hebridean isle of Todday. The inhabitants are not happy with this disruption of their way of life, and hamper construction as much as they can. An Royal Air Force officer, sent to negotiate with the people, falls in love with a local girl and realises what the base would mean to the islanders.
