Plot
A low born Roman Catholic Hungarian girl from a big family lives in poverty. She met and married a rich Jewish man, Mr Rozsnyai and they established a famous elite night club in 1931.
The world war changed everything. Their son committed suicide. After the German occupation of Hungary in March 1944, Mr Rozsnyai hid away but he was found and taken away by some corrupt Gestapo officers. Ms Rozsnyai tried to intercede, but was told that there was nothing they could do for her.
Mrs Rozsnyai then turned to her exdaughter-in-law, "La Belle" Márta Mázik, who in the meantime had a relationship with a German officer named Wilhelm. La Belle Marta promised to do his best and she went back to Ms Rozsnyai with the news that one of Wilhelm's friends could intervene on her behalf. He asked her to prepare her jewelry and valuables and get into the car that the Germans were sending, so she would be in a safe place with her husband. The car arrived at the agreed time, and Mrs Rozsnyai entered it. She was never seen alive again...
