Plot
The story follows two musicians, who, as a result of civil war, have moved away from society to a farm on a rural island. They are apolitical and indifferent to the war. Although they are in love, Jan (Sydow) is very sensitive and cries frequently. Eva (Ulmann) does not like his sensitivity, but puts up with it. The war eventually catches up with them, however.
