Joseph Svenden, 47, lives on his family's farm with his ailing mother and works as a teacher at a two-room schoolhouse with Rosealee, his sweetheart and the widow of his best buddy's best friend. After learning that his teaching position will be eliminated at the end of the school year due to the school district's expansion into his town, Joseph, who does not have a college degree, becomes depressed.
