An atmospheric psycho thriller told from the perspective of a young woman who is the apparent victim of a conspiracy, and who later becomes herself a perpetrator.

In May 1945, in the little town of Blankenheim on the liberated territory of Germany, Soviet soldiers successfully carry out a two-day operation of rescuing German orphaned children from the attack of a group of wehrwolfs. Together with a woman working for a Berlin newspaper, they help organize a children's home, to which a baby, abandoned by the refugees, is brought, and the Soviet soldiers name him "Little Alexander".
