Sister Germana, a beautiful woman who took the vows following the death of her fiancé Guido, is forced to return from Libya, and becomes the mother superior in a hospital in Lombardy.

During the course of a strike, he is wounded. He is brought to the hospital where he is reconciled with the mother superior...
