The young physician Dr. Petra Jensen takes over the medical practice of the deceased country doctor in a small Bavarian village. The villagers, who expected a man, rather than a woman, shun her and her practice. But when the mayor's daughter urgently needs medical help, Petra is the only one who can perform the operation, challenging the townspeople’s opinion of her.
