Overview:Tarics lives almost as a hermit in his own forest, with only his landlady by his side. A mining engineer and his beautiful wife arrive there. The engineer wants to buy the forest for his clients, but Tarics is adamant, even though the mine in the forest would bring great benefits. Rachel, the engineer's wife, can't stand the forest man's stubbornness and decides to reach out and make Tarics fall in love, so that she can humiliate him and blackmail him in order to sell the forest. Florea watches in despair as his master falls more and more into the net of the beautiful woman. However, the tense, exciting game turns into a tragedy... as the woman really falls in love with her victim - and vice versa.
