About

An ordinary girl Dimka works on the cooperative farm. Her father Yordan, an honest man, is accused of a serious crime against the cooperative farm. He is brought to a comrades' court. No one doubts that the innocent man will be "exposed" and convicted. Yordan is ready to withstand the worst of injustice with silent dignity. Her daughter asks for help her boyfriend. He is the most authoritative and respected work team leader. He, however, refuses to help, fearing that this might affect his career. Dimka remembered Yoshkata, a nondescript village youth who makes everybody laugh but is very disinterested. So far, Dimka has spurned his undeclared love. Now this same "harmless joker" fights the injustice and upsets the carefully planned frame-up. The father is saved from disgrace. Dimka finds her only true love.
