action
Jela runs a small inn with a pub on the ground floor in the country. She lives there with her sons, the timid dreamer Jakob and the raw and lazy Martin, as well as with Martin's wife Kata. During the day, Martin drives Kata to work, at night he beats and rapes her. Jela is disappointed that Kata did not get pregnant after five years. The brothers can't stand each other because Jakob has a feeling for kata and can't stand the way Martin treats them.
One night Jakob can't stand the noises from Martin and Kata's rooms. In the morning Kata is dead and Jakob has disappeared. Jela and Martin bury Kata while Jakob is in the nearby woods. Martin soon runs to a young woman who doesn't really know what to do with herself. With oaths of love, he moves her to work as a waitress, and the bar fills up with guests. To entertain them, he urges her to sing and can do nothing but rape the young woman by the male guests. The next morning, Martin lies dead in the demolished pub and the young woman has run away. In a grove she meets Jakob and sits down with him.
