Rabbi Avram arrives in Philadelphia from Poland en route to San Francisco where he will be a congregation's new rabbi. An innocent and inexperienced traveller, he is tricked by con men to pay for the trip to go west, then they leave him and his belongings scattered along a deserted road. He is befriended by a stranger, Tommy, who is a bank robber and have many adventures during their journey.
A wide-eyed rabbi navigating the lawless American West creates a comedic friction rarely seen in traditional frontier tales. This unlikely partnership between a gentle scholar and a rugged wanderer turns a dusty road trip into a sharp, character-driven romp.
