In 1944, Margittai Feri escapes from the front, but his mother sends him away from home. The lieutenant is wounded, and doctor Mohai tries to save his life in vain. During the operation, one of the doctors denounce the Communist Erdei, dressed up as an assistant, to the Hungarian fascists. After the war, even Mohai is called to account for the event. The doctor, who comes from a middle-class background, feels that the new political system would like to get rid of him. He meets Mrs. Margittai. She learns about the death of her son from the doctor, but refuses to believe it. Her suppressed bad conscience almost drives her mad. Her daughter, Elza, tries to help her in vain. The desperate Mohai starts to understand that if he does not bravely face himself, he will fall into the same trap. Supported by Elza's love, he takes the decisive step.
