In post-war Europe, where the shadows of conflict still linger, translator and intellectual Ester (Ingrid Thulin) travels by train back to Sweden with her sister Anna (Gunnel Lindblom) and Anna's son Johan. During the journey, Ester, suffering from advanced lung disease, has an episode, and the three of them get off in a small town where they cannot communicate and check into an old inn.
Ester deliberately and inadvertently tries to peer into Anna's life, wanting to express her affection but unsure how, while Anna is convinced that Ester is her burden. One night, Anna goes out and meets a bartender, and upon returning to the inn, she shares a vivid description of the imagined sexual encounter with Ester, provoking a fierce reaction from her. Subsequently, she has sex with the bartender right under Ester's nose, which ultimately leads to Ester's outburst, bringing to light long-buried memories of jealousy and conflict between the two women.
