Plot:
1941: the young Air Force sergeant
Bernd Birkhoff has gotten a three-day pass and wants to spend one of those days
visiting old acquaintances in Berlin. At the railway station Friedrichstrasse,
he gets to know the Red Cross volunteer Gisela and both are attracted to each
other on sight. A short time later, they meet once again at Wannsee as his
acquaintances weren't able to meet him. The friendship between the two grows
deeper, but a hidden jealousy keeps Gisela at arm's length. Only when they meet
for a third time do the two admit to their love for each other; but then end up
separated again. Finally, that evening, they meet once more and all the
misunderstandings are cleared up; but then they only have an hour left together
before the soldier must leave once more for the front.
