Shortly after the "Victorious February" of 1948 a representative from the Ministry of Interior in Slovakia decided to purge the city of "subversive and unreliable elements". After a police raid all prostitutes were taken to a camp for forced labour where they were to become "politically conscious citizens". This film tells a story about the indestructible nature of life, the nonsence of social engineering and also the fact that not even the camp system could eliminate life's natural course.
