Boy meets girl one summer: he is a master of saying nothing, she asks more of life than it gives. They marry because people do, and lose children along the way, while his kind-hearted sister gives her heart to Adolf Hitler. Then war breaks out, and for this family it never truly stops; they go on surviving one conflict after another, together and despite each other.
