The end of the Second World War. Peter Carter’s plane is on fire, the parachute is torn to shreds, and the pilot goes on the air to hear a human voice for the last time before his death. He opens the soul of a girl who heard him named June and jumps out of a falling aircraft, but does not die. A mistake occurred in heaven - the conductor angel could not find it in the fog. When he searches Peter, he already met with June, and they fell in love with each other. Peter asks the conductor angel to be given another chance, and the court is going to decide his fate.
