Secondløitnanten handler om skipskaptein Thor Espedal som 9. april 1940 finner frem sin gamle secondløitnantuniform fra befalskolen i 1902 og drar til nærmeste mobiliseringssted. Når kommanderende offiser kapitulerer, deserterer Espedal og tar med seg en sammenrasket liten hær under sin egen uortodokse kommando. Mens andre faller av, fortsetter han motstanden mot den overlegne tyske vernemakt.
