Through a series of shattering confrontations with friends, with her Aryan husband, and most importantly, with herself, she finally arrives at the realization that she must leave forever her home, her country, and the man she still loves. However, she no longer leaves as a victim of circumstance, but as a new-born human being who has learned to take responsibility for her own destiny.
