action

The core of the well-known story about the temptation of three simple and righteous men by the devil Lumpazivagabundus has been retained: The three craftspeople on the roll - these are the tailor Zwirn, the carpenter journeyman Leim and the shoemaker Knieriem - are over by buying a lottery ticket Got rich night. The journeyman carpenter Leim is most likely to know what to do with his winnings and marries Pepi, the daughter of his master, Hoblmann. The tailor's journeyman Zwirn, on the other hand, wastes his new possessions after meeting Signora Palpiti, to whom he soon falls for and throws himself into great expense because of her. Knieriem, a beefy cobbler journeyman, in turn brings his new wealth through unrestrained drinking alcohol ... and finds nothing to complain about. As glue, horrified by the misery into which his two friends have plunged due to the fresh financial blessing, wants to help them and enable them to return to a bourgeois existence, Zwirn and Knieriem prefer the dissolute life they have begun to "decency".
