Resumen: La película cuenta la historia del ficticio doctor Barnay y relata su experiencia en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Trabaja como médico en un hospital militar y siempre se ha comprometido a lograr el fin de la guerra. Cuando su esposa muere en un ataque aéreo, pasa todo su tiempo trabajando en un invento contra la guerra para distraerse, y en el proceso descuida a su nueva esposa y su hijo. (Eddie Constanti) Comentario

Película cargada de buenas intenciones (esa fábula sobre el hombre que quiere evitar las guerras tiene su enjundia, viniendo precisamente de un alemán), la dirigió Fritz Benhardt, del que no nos ha llegado más que esta muestra de su potencial como realizador. Una producción correcta y unos intérpretes ajustados, con toques melodramáticos. La escena final, con el inventor lanzando su discurso pacifista con la mirada puesta en el Altísimo (techo) es de lo más reconfortante. (Eddie Constanti)
