Amidst terrible famine a
woman who has strange visions is accused of
witchcraft by her daughter-in-law. Is she
guilty or is her mind simply failing her?
A widow, Güde lives with her son and his
wife, Irmeltrud, and their children.
Irmeltrud resents her presence: she is too
old to work yet she eats from the family's
table. When famine grips the small German
town, Irmeltrud sends Güde out to beg for
food. As the old woman wanders she imagines
that the devil asks for her soul in exchange
for a basket of meat. Later, she arrives
home with a basket she did not have before

the woods was real; perhaps she signed the
devil’s contract after all...
