The film takes place in the second half of the 1940s in Galicia. Two Slavko and Nusia underground members hide in a poor forest hut that looks more like a cattle winter. But it is worth the heroes to come to her as a miracle: inside this big city apartment of the late 30's ... However, to hide in such a strange hiding place from reality they do not work out: one day Slavko returns home to the wounded. Nusia is in a hurry for help. But, returning with the necessary medication, he realizes that she is late: three hobblers have already found their hiding place. As a result of the confrontation, our heroes and two jumps are killed. The next day we see some emgebists in the yard. The operator inspects the yard, finally opens the door to the house. We go in with him and for the first time we see a house from the middle of what he really is – a poor little forester. And where are the main characters? Their bodies are nowhere to be found. Perhaps they stayed in their home, which their enemies could not see.
