Plot.
... On the eve of his wedding, a young lumberjack Yan died tragically. His beloved Františka drank a lot of grief, being left with an “illegal” - illegitimate - child in her arms. She chased after illusory happiness - she agreed to become the wife of an old but rich widower Podeshva, and her life turned into continuous torment and humiliation. With fierce hatred, unconcealed malice, she met the new mistress of the house Rosina. She lived here for a long time as the housekeeper of Podeshwa, but in fact she was his mistress. Rosina annoyed Františka at every step and ate her son - little Metudek. When Podeshva wooed Františka, he promised to love the child like his own son. There is nothing left of these promises now! Rosina set Podeshva against both his wife and the boy .
