Amidst a thriving Baťa-esque town, nestled in the scenic foothills of the
majestic Tatra mountains, stands a factory, whose young director is, for his day
(it's 1937), pleasingly modern in approach. Yet, don’t be fooled, the
film’s protagonist is actually his wife Helena (Eliška Křenková). The
aspiring doctor is soon to give birth, yet her resolute gaze into her
family’s rosy future is suddenly darkened by the discovery of the body of a
newborn baby in the vibrant factory's courtyard.
