In Germany in 1923, five years after the end of the war, Jacob Goltz returns to his homeland by Lake Constance, which once felt so familiar to him. Accompanying him is his wife, the beautiful Belgian Madlon, who longs for a stable life, security, and a child. However, their marriage faces the greatest trial of their lives when they arrive in Constance, where Jacob's family resides. There, they encounter the youthful Clarissa, whose enchanting presence captivates Jacob from the very first moment. As tensions rise, the story explores themes of desire, loyalty, and the complexities of love against the backdrop of a society still reeling from the aftermath of war. Jacob's internal conflict and the impact of his choices on his marriage and family dynamics unfold in a poignant narrative that examines the fragility of human relationships.
