Three wandering minstrels arrive at an inn in the city of Shamgorod on the eve of Purim, a holiday which is replete with disguises and secrets, and which commemorates the defeat of a genocidal plan against the Jewish people. Unbeknownst to the three wanderers, a devastating pogrom has killed all of the city's Jews except for Berish the innkeeper, and two others. A decision is made to hold a trial of God, and a defender of the deity needs to be found. The trial itself reveals an awful truth.
