This film is the first confession on film, made by the generation of "shiny winds", about young but already acknowledged intellectual life, about facing traditions. The surgeon Jámbor Ambrus is served an unusual lesson by his retired professor, shown as "historical relic", who proves his perseverance, knowledge and humanness with an especially difficult heart-surgery and the bringing to life of a patient again. Ambrus's belief in himself is suddenly uprooted, he feels that his results have been undeserved. He faces his aimless, modernising environment of artists, and his hopeless love-affair. Returning to his home-village, he attempts to find new strength in his father's strong faith, humanness and feeling of responsibility. (official distributor synopsis)
