David takes an entry-level job as a draughtsman to earn money to marry Linda but he resents it and they break up. When David’s father has a stroke and is admitted to a charity hospital, David realises what pride has cost them. He takes a labourer’s job in a steel mill and hopes to someday reconcile with Linda.
