Marta (played by Margit Carstensen) lives a dependent life with her cold and brutal father. They travel to Rome for a family vacation, but along the way, the father suddenly dies of a heart attack. Surprisingly, Marta does not feel very sad; instead, she experiences freedom for the first time. Later, she meets an engineer named Helmut (played by Karlheinz Böhm), and they fall in love. However, Helmut's personality is much like that of Marta's father, as he constantly insults and mistreats her. Strangely, Marta seems to enjoy this abuse. Marta and Helmut eventually marry, and the abuse escalates even further afterwards. Ultimately, Marta decides to elope with her colleague, but a car accident not only takes her lover's life but also causes Marta to lose her legs.
