Even without a clock, the watch-maker of the small country town always knows the exact time to the second, and for this reason he came to be called Mr. Clock. His wife left him, and he only lives for his work. He is just engaged in repairing the tower clock when his wife returns and the German troops appear. The clockmaker's workshop becomes a Jewish shop. Heller, the German commander is a lover of clocks. At nights, he comes with special commissions to Mr. Clock. The Germans roll up the local resistance movement and with it the innocent Mr. Clock. His sense of time supports the escape of Boronkay, for which he is condemned to death by the Germans. Elza blows up a bomb at the execution, and while she dies, Mr. Clock survives.
