- Synopsis
- Arnold, a city-planning officer's interest in ancient buildings leads him to discover that an old barn scheduled for demolition to make way for an amusement park is actually the work of a legendary medieval craftsman. When his attempts to save the barn provoke a strange resistance from a number of people, he turns detective. He learns about a love triangle that ended in heartbreak forty years ago and ignited a feud between farmers that is ongoing. The farmer whose land is thriving is against the development which will disturb his livelihood and destroy the rural atmosphere of the land. His neighbor, bitter and unable to succeed on his farm, wants the cash the developers offer which will enable him to abandon his run down farm for an easier life elsewhere. When a vocal participant in the land usage debate is murdered and Arnold is suspected of the crime, he overcomes his shyness and dread and actively seeks to understand the reason that the smoldering feud has become deadly.
