In a small town in Nazi-occupied Slovakia during World War II, decent but timid carpenter Tono is named "Aryan comptroller" of a button store owned by an old Jewish widow, Rozalie. Since the post comes with a salary and standing in the town's corrupt hierarchy, Tono wrestles with greed and guilt as he and Rozalie gradually befriend each other. When the authorities order all Jews in town to be rounded up, Tono faces a moral dilemma unlike any he's known before.

Инициативный председатель месткома Ржехак из мебельного кооператива MARS безрассудно обещает перед заместителем министра, что он позаботится о том, чтобы в компании сформировался музыкальный коллектив из тридцати человек. Его хвастовство воспринимается всерьёз и поэтому коллектив фабрики получат небольшой подарок — музыкальные инструменты для тридцати музыкантов. Чтобы не попасть впросак перед министром сотрудники Марса начинают репетировать, сначала под руководством Хонзы Томана, затем под управлением профессионального композитора Караса, которого привлекла сотрудница Хана. Местом учёбы музыкантов был избран небольшой курортный городок. Когда там появился этот шумный, нестройный оркестр, публика приняла его по ошибке за прославленный джаз-бэнд, прибытие которого ожидали в городке. Это недоразумение вызвало много забавных приключений…
