Set in 1945 during the Red Army invasion of Berlin. Women are victims of rape and devastation; one of them, Anonyma, had been a journalist and photographer. In her desperation, she decides to look for an officer who can protect her. She meets a Russian officer Andrej - an encounter which develops into a complex symbiotic relationship that forces them to remain enemies until the bitter end. (official distributor synopsis)
