Plot

In a bustling Red Cross office, a group of young women volunteers sign up to join a team of nurses who will work in a frontline hospital during World War II. Among them is Natasha Matveeva, a confident and determined young woman who consciously chooses to serve as a nurse to be closer to her fiancé, Lieutenant Sergei Korovin. As the group of volunteers travels to their destination, they are told that the hospital is not yet set up, and they must first clean and prepare a neglected building, gather water, and prepare sleeping arrangements. Soon after, the wounded begin arriving, and the nurses are thrust into their work.
