    In the ear­ly 17th cen­tu­ry, some­whe­re in Germany, a mys­te­rious sol­dier arri­ves in an iso­la­ted Protestant vil­la­ge. Slight and mode­st by natu­re, his face dis­fi­gu­red by a scar, this stran­ger decla­res hims­elf to be the heir of a long-aban­do­ned farm­stead and pro­du­ces a docu­ment to sup­port his cla­im to the sus­pi­cious vil­la­gers. With the pas­sa­ge of time, he over­co­mes their doubts and, pro­ving hims­elf to be a hard-working, God-fea­ring man, beco­mes a part of their com­mu­ni­ty. However, his quest for accep­tance is built on a bold-faced lie. The true and twis­ted tale of a swind­ler who, defy­ing her birth as a woman, com­por­ted hers­elf as a man and decei­ved a village.
