What happens

Albert takes an apprenticeship with Isaac Singerman, a Jewish woodworker, and learns about craftsmanship and faith from him. Some people in town treat Mr. Singerman with prejudice.

Albert doesn't know that his teacher is seriously ill, or that the special piece they are building together is meant for Singerman himself. A moving story about friendship and respect.
