Lena, the daughter of the grouchy mayor in a rural village in Northern Germany, is in love with Peter, a young veterinarian. However, her parents are against the match as she has already been promised to another man who is due to inherit a farm. He is in turn courted by Marie, a woman who has recently arrived in the area.
