Filmed in 1962 but not released in the US until 1966 (with 20 of its 108 minutes removed), Conquered City is an all-star World War II drama financed in Italy and filmed in Greece.

British Major David Niven has been ordered to prevent a cache of weapons hidden in the hotel from falling into the hands of renegade troops.

Conquered City was released in English-speaking countries outside the U.S. as Captive City.
