Shortly after the Second World War, Maria marries fellow lawyer Martin who had been severely wounded in action. She believes that her first husband Georg was killed in action, and married Martin, to some degree, out of pity. Several years later Georg resurfaces alive in Leipzig in East Germany and tries to resume their former relationship, but Maria comes to realise that it is Martin that she truly loves.
