Synopsis: Inge arrives in Minnesota in 1920 to marry a young Norwegian farmer named Olaf but her German heritage and lack of official immigration papers makes her an object of suspicion in the small town, and she and Olaf are forbidden to marry. Alone and adrift, Inge goes to live with the family of Olaf’s friend and neighbour Frandsen and his wife Brownie. In time, Inge’s cheerful nature and love of music begin to make an impression on the community as she shares her favourite tunes on her ever-present gramophone.
