A young army surgeon, Kyoji Fujisaki, accidentally contracts syphilis during a WWII field operation. Back at his father’s clinic, he treats himself in secret and breaks off his engagement rather than risk his fiancée’s future, even as he confronts the irresponsible patient who infected him—testing his ethics, pride, and capacity for sacrifice.

This educational film combines medical information and story to teach the viewers about the prevention and treatment of syphilis. The four episodes cover the stories of students looking to pick up prostitutes, a careless medical student, a wet nurse who has infected an infant, and a country girl afraid of seeking treatment.

Helen Alving leads an outwardly contented life. On the eve of the 10th anniversary of her husband's death, she is about to open an orphanage as a memorial to him.

But ghosts of the past erupt during an eventful evening, bringing the facade of civilised family life crashing down.
