Brother Martin is a creative, unusual, and understanding member of the order. He loves using unusual methods to raise money for the poor. But not everyone likes this. Finally, his opponents manage to have him placed under house arrest, but that's precisely when everyone needs his help. He tries to escape in order to offer advice and support to little Lena, the pretty Rosl, and the tailor Würmerl. But escaping isn't so easy, as he's trying to make two marriages and mend one...
