The late 1930s. A young enemployed, unskilled worker walks through the streets of Copenhagen, sustaining himself partly on the dole and free soup-kitchen meals and partly on day-dreams. He spends time at a cemetry studying headstone inscriptions. Mild-mannered and of poetic bent, he understands little of an intellectual friend's advice and shies away from the love of a woman who shares her bed with him.

During a train journey, Carolus, master of literature, meets the charming Italian Enrico. The two men discuss eroticism, and it ends with a bet: In a few days in Copenhagen, Enrico will seduce four women. Coincidentally - and unfortunately, Carolus' wife is the first Enrico to date.
