The red flag is flying over the Reichstag in May 1945. In a small German village, a group of Russian soldiers are experiencing their first days of peace. Under lieutenant Nikolaev, they discover the reality of Nazism and the concentration camps. The soldiers are searching for a peasant, Raschke, who had compelled a young Polish woman to sacrifice herself so that his pigs could be fed, and was responsible for the death of numerous Poles.
