Synopsis:

This drama is an attempt to bring to the screen the 1927 Nobel Prize-winning novel of Norwegian Knut Hamsen, Landstrykere. The story concerns Edevart (Trond Peter Stamso Munch), a young man who is learning about life an his place in it. In the story, he at first takes up with August (Helge Jordal), a charming trader who is at least half con-man. After trailing along with him for a while, he decides that August is not a man he wants to model his life after. He becomes acquainted with and falls in love with Lovise Margrete (Marika Lagercrantz) a woman living alone on a sheep farm. She has feelings for him also, but she remains true to her missing husband and their acquaintance does not progress to being a full-fledged romance. It is not until her husband returns to her life that any resolution to Edevart's frustration (which lasts for years) can be achieved.

The story of two adventurers who arrive at a small northern Norwegian village in the 1870s. One of them falls for a married woman.
