In 1719, during the Great Northern War, a Swedish army is making its way home through Trøndelag during a particularly cold winter. The Swedish soldier Per Jönsa (Lindgren) seeks refuge in a mountain cottage, where he is cared for by the peasant daughter Eli Sjursdotter (Wigert). This is not well received by Eli's father (Haaland), who hates the Swedes.
