Based on the 1886 story "How Much Land Does a Man Need?" by Leo Tolstoy. Zabih is an ill-tempered man who lives in a village with his wife. He usually solves family problems with the mayor's help. Zabih is promised he can have as much land as he can mark off from sunrise until sunset. He assiduously works on this but at the end of the day he falls off a hill and dies from exhaustion.
