Six women from three generations of one family live in an old villa on the outskirts of a provincial Polish town. All of them have lost their husbands; one is divorced, the others are widows. The women live on their memories, raving about the old days or looking back bitterly on a lost life. The doted center of this isolated women's world is the old grandmother, whose wise kindness determines the atmosphere of the house. Joanna Nielewicz returned to the family circle just a few months ago, after the death of her husband, who was respected by all for his particularly high moral standards. Since his death, Joanna has been tormented by a guilt that she finally confesses to her grandmother: once during her marriage, she was unfaithful to her husband. One day, the surprise visit of a young girl brings unrest to the villa. Despite the women's resistance, she manages to get through to Joanna and reveal that she is the illegitimate daughter of her late husband.

A fictional, non-chronological account of the life of the scientist, adventurer and industrialist Lukas Berlinger. The key dates and central events include Berlinger's birth in 1914, his friendship with Johannes Roeder, who was the same age, his marriage to Marlit in the early 1930s and Roeder's joining the NSDAP in 1936. As a chemist and "scientist important to the war effort", Berlinger was not required to go to the front during the Second World War, but it was slowly discovered that he was helping persecuted people to escape to Switzerland. Pressure from the Gestapo cost Marlit her life, and Berlinger fled to South America. It was not until 1968 that he returned to the western part of Germany. He meets Roeder again, who is now a senator and has become rich as a "building tycoon", and meets Maria, a teacher almost 30 years his junior, who looks strikingly similar to Marlit.
