Isak Borg is an aged professor of medicine re-assessing his life while he is on his way to the university from where he graduated, to receive a degree. In the night, the eve of his trip, he has a nightmare that confronts him with the reality of his death. The next day, he takes the road with his daughter-in-law Marianne, in a state of crisis with her husband Ewald, who would seem to harbor the same degree of bitterness as his father. During the journey, Victor goes back over his lifetime and compares his story with the people that have crossed his path - a couple in a state of crisis, a group of youngsters full of energy and hope. Amongst the youngsters is Sara who, to Victor, symbolizes the love of his teens and who takes him even further into the past. The impact of former memories leads the doctor to an oneiric state - between the past, the present, and his imagination. Victor abandons his anguish and experiences renewed communion with life.
