In the 1980s, the Italian Salvatore ends up in a small village in the Alps. Salvatore tells the villagers that he is going on vacation for two weeks. During this time, he befriends the widow Frieda, who is still mourning her husband, who never returned from the war. Salvatore also comforts 40-year-old Romy, as her husband is addicted to alcohol and is in a wheelchair. He even enters into a relationship with Erna. The nurse is forced to live with her father Stockinger, who takes good care of her son but has become embittered himself. What Erna doesn't realize is that Salvatore has a dark secret: he knows that the murderer of his entire family has settled in the small village and is seeking revenge...
