In the attic of the house where he lives, grammar-school student Pavel is hiding a Jewish girl of the same age who refused to join a transport. The two young people fall in love but their relationship is fatally affected by the repressions following the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich. The girl's presence in the house is posing a threat to the lives of all the tenants. When her hideaway is exposed, the desperate girl chooses voluntary death in the hands of German soldiers.

Ivan Mistrík and his Slovak intonation, Dana Smutná and her a-historical appearance, and a number of other major distractions destroy this valid story like a house of cards. This is Weiss's reflection on the bleak reality of the Protectorate where we have a gradual thaw on the surface, an absurdly hysterical finale, and Blanka Bohdanová as if cut out of the film Vlasta Burian at the end of the 1950s. I can't help it, and yet I regret the demise of the otherwise excellent studies of Šejbalová and Smolík in the ballast of errors. Perhaps I will enjoy the TV remake more. When it's time.
