1941, the first months of the war. Several people join a unit of medical workers who are to serve on a hospital train and are destined to become a true team. The refined physician Dr. Belov has left his family in Leningrad for dangerous work. Responsible and strict, Yulia is a lonely operating-room nurse who has never had a serious relationship. The attractive Faina seeks to charm both Danilov and the mechanic Nedzvetsky at the same time. How will the lives of these people unfold—so different, yet united by a common cause and enduring hardships side by side?
