This drama from the period of the Slovak State tells the story of Anton Brtko, a decent man who, under pressure from his greedy wife and social-climbing brother in law, lets himself be manouevred into the position of an aryaniser of a bankrupt haberdashery. The original owner, old Mrs. Lautmann, lost contact with reality a long time ago and has no clue as to what is going on in her surroundings. She considers Tono to be her new assistant and takes him in as her own son. He also only pretends to be aryanising her shop and devotes all this time to repairing antique furniture in her household. However, the situation changes as soon as preparations for deportation of the local Jews get underway.
