Levy, a young Talmudic scholar, decides to leave the big city to search for truth in the Russian countryside. He happens upon a farm family headed by industrious Duvid, who is impressed with Levy's intellect and takes him in. Their jealous neighbor, Alkuneh, wishes that the prestige of having such a learned guest would fall on his house, and so competes for Levy's allegiance, using his daughter as bait.
