Synopsis:
A young girl, a member of Young Communists, comes into a family of an “Ustasha” chief to work as a maid. She pretends to be illiterate. Her task is to get her hands on important documents – a list of spies sent by the enemy to the freed territory. This task is very dangerous, and she has to be especially careful because of Elza, Ustasha’s older daughter and a fiancée of a German officer, who doesn’t trust her. Sasa, the younger daughter, is still a child and she tries to teach the maid to read and write…
