The young and talented Andrach wrote a poignant song "Melancholy Sunday" for Ilona's birthday.

On the occasion of the restaurant's premiere, Hans, a young German businessman who is attracted by the song, suddenly appears.

The German army occupied Budapest during the war, and Hans, who later returned to the city from Germany, became a senior officer of the SS. This life-and-kill ruler destroyed the delicate feelings between the three, and the pianist Andrache also committed suicide. Hans eventually sent the owner of the restaurant, Lacylo, to a concentration camp. After a lapse of decades, Hans revisited the restaurant where Ilona and her son also played "Black Sunday" and poisoned him.
