Jobs are hard to find in the early 1900s, and Frank (Gil Bellows) finds a job working in a Jewish immigrant's store. Frank hooks up with a petty thief who robs the store, and now Frank feels responsible and agrees to help the store owner. In the process, love blossoms. Based on Bernard Malamud's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, the film doesn't do the story justice.
