During World War II, engineer Neven Novak, a member of the illegal Partisan resistance, escapes from a train with which the Ustashas are transporting prisoners to Jasenovac. After a successful escape, he tries to rescue his son Zoran, a boy who has been indoctrinated into Ustasha and Nazi-fascist ideology, from the Ustasha children's home in Zagreb. When Zoran learns that his father is an enemy of the regime, he refuses to flee with him to Partisan territory. Novak is faced with his son's resistance and increased pressure that the police and agents are placing on him.
