Film Synopsis
In 1932, a worker in a Soviet factory is skimming through a German
magazine when his eyes fall on some photographs of Berlin. This
provokes him to recall his past, with regret. The man is Paul
Martin. Before the war, he was a successful car manufacturer in
Germany. In 1916, whilst fighting for his country, Paul sustained
an injury that temporarily robbed him of his memory. His physical
and mental wounds changed him so much that no one, neither his wife nor
his friends, recognised him. With the help of his friend, Julot,
Paul made a determined attempt to convince the authorities of his
identity, but his efforts were in vain. In the end, he had no
choice but to change his name and begin a new life...
