In a comedic film about assimilation and Jewish values, sophisticated New Yorker Morris Brown travels back to his village to attend his niece's traditional wedding. There he encounters the rambunctious Mollie, whose hijinks include boxing, and teaching other young villagers to shimmy. Mollie meets her match, however, in an engaging young yeshiva scholar who forsakes tradition and joins the secular world to win her heart.
"Morris Brown, a well-to-do New Yorker, returns to Galicia for a family wedding, with his daughter, Mollie. Mollie's pranks, teaching young villagers to shimmy, stealing away from the Yom Kippur service to gorge herself on the food prepared for the meal, lead to a mock wedding with the yeshiva scholar Jacob. After many tribulations, the love of Jacob for Mollie triumphs."
