[edit]

In rural Moravia, Anuschka loses her family farm when her father dies heavily in debt. She takes up an offer to go to Vienna to work as a maid to the surgeon Felix von Hartberg who treated her father following an accident. However, his wife Eva is having an affair and when she gives her husband's gift of an expensive lighter to her lover, she allows Anuschka to wrongly take the blame.
