This act is the only hard physical work the old usurer has done in his life and, ironically, the exhaustion kills him. Meanwhile, Floridan has been employed at a sawmill when he receives the news of his father’s death and his own disinheritance. However, as fate would have it, a certain beech tree finds its way to Floridan’s sawmill. (Stumfilm.dk)
