In 1945, in the last days of WW II, while on the run, young Anna (Heidemarie Hatheyer) loses her two year old son. Three years later she gets a job as a female worker on the manor of the von Birkhausen's. There she founds again her presumed dead son as the adoptive child of the von Birkhausen's. Through the years he became accustomed to the situation and to his new parents. But Anna fights for her child and and finally kidnaps the boy to Hamburg. After a while she begins to doubt if the boy really belongs to her after all the years of separation.—now.voyager
