The university instructor Berger (Adolf Bjerke) returns home from a mountain hike and discovers that his young wife, Eva (Astri Jacobsen), has disappeared. The maid has neither heard nor seen anything from the woman since the day the Berger left. What Berger does not know about his wife's past is that she was addicted to drugs and that her disappearance was due to a relapse. In desperation, she sought out her old friend, the decrepit pharmacist Møller (Espen Skjønberg) who previously led her into drug abuse. On the surface, the marriage seemed to be going well, but no one understood how much it tormented the young woman to feel mentally inferior to her husband.
