Plot.
Julius and Milja are in love with each other and they also work at the same factory. Petrina, a girl from Oslo's Grønland neighborhood, flirts with Julius and tricks him into stealing from the factory, which causes him to be fired. A year passes, and Julius has left Milja for Petrina. Milja has had a child and during the day, when she works, she leaves the child with Hønse-Lovisa. A doctor, who has been sent out by rich people to find children to adopt, persuades Milja to give away her child. After she has given her child up, she realizes what she has done and becomes desperate. However, Hønse-Lovisa does not think it was a wise decision to give up the child and has therefore kept the child with her. When Milja returns after a night of dancing, she finds the child at home.
