Although we wish to set the course of our own lives, we are often controlled by the circumstances that surround us. How true this was for Tzvi Apfel, a handsome shtetl Jew who loses his mother and is left with an ailing father amidst pogroms and looming anti-Semitism in Poland at the turn of the 20th century. As revolution transforms the land and its people and WWI, the "War to End All Wars," strikes like a burning torch, Tzvi is cast amidst world events. He wants no more than the love of his beautiful wife and a Jewish home.
