Overview:

Martin deserts from the barracks with one of the army's pistols. He wants to go home to his girlfriend Sussie, who, however, has found someone else while he has been away. Martin is a lively and energetic guy, but he's rootless and provocative, and can't seem to settle down anywhere. He is on the run from the military and, more or less unconsciously, in the process of destroying himself. He doesn't really know what to do with the revolver, but he doesn't want to get rid of it, and only when he is hit by a shot from it does he realize what he has messed up.
