When Inge Altenberg, a young German woman, arrives in rural Minnesota, she meets Norwegian farmer Olaf Torvik, a fellow immigrant. Olaf's parents in Norway have arranged for the two to marry, but problems arise when she doesn't have the proper papers. Despite being unwed, the couple lives and farms together, causing a rift with their community. In the face of considerable hardship, Inge and Olaf toil away and grow closer in the process.
