Synopsis

A mild-mannered man, overpowered at home and the shoe factory where he is employed, is called up to military service during the First World War with the rank of Major. He enjoys the daring and comradeship of fighting, but at the end of the war returns home to resume his former downtrodden life. However, one day he snaps and begins to assert himself once more.
